Quarterly Theory ICT 05 [TradingFinder] Doubling Theory Signals🔵 Introduction
Doubling Theory is an advanced approach to price action and market structure analysis that uniquely combines time-based analysis with key Smart Money concepts such as SMT (Smart Money Technique), SSMT (Sequential SMT), Liquidity Sweep, and the Quarterly Theory ICT.
By leveraging fractal time structures and precisely identifying liquidity zones, this method aims to reveal institutional activity specifically smart money entry and exit points hidden within price movements.
At its core, the market is divided into two structural phases: Doubling 1 and Doubling 2. Each phase contains four quarters (Q1 through Q4), which follow the logic of the Quarterly Theory: Accumulation, Manipulation (Judas Swing), Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal.
These segments are anchored by the True Open, allowing for precise alignment with cyclical market behavior and providing a deeper structural interpretation of price action.
During Doubling 1, a Sequential SMT (SSMT) Divergence typically forms between two correlated assets. This time-structured divergence occurs between two swing points positioned in separate quarters (e.g., Q1 and Q2), where one asset breaks a significant low or high, while the second asset fails to confirm it. This lack of confirmation—especially when aligned with the Manipulation and Accumulation phases—often signals early smart money involvement.
Following this, the highest and lowest price points from Doubling 1 are designated as liquidity zones. As the market transitions into Doubling 2, it commonly returns to these zones in a calculated move known as a Liquidity Sweep—a sharp, engineered spike intended to trigger stop orders and pending positions. This sweep, often orchestrated by institutional players, facilitates entry into large positions with minimal slippage.

🔵 How to Use
Applying Doubling Theory requires a simultaneous understanding of temporal structure and inter-asset behavioral divergence. The method unfolds over two main phases—Doubling 1 and Doubling 2—each divided into four quarters (Q1 to Q4).
The first phase focuses on identifying a Sequential SMT (SSMT) divergence, which forms when two correlated assets (e.g., EURUSD and GBPUSD, or NQ and ES) react differently to key price levels across distinct quarters. For example, one asset may break a previous low while the other maintains structure. This misalignment—especially in Q2, the Manipulation phase—often indicates early smart money accumulation or distribution.
Once this divergence is observed, the extreme highs and lows of Doubling 1 are marked as liquidity zones. In Doubling 2, the market gravitates back toward these zones, executing a Liquidity Sweep.
This move is deliberate—designed to activate clustered stop-loss and pending orders and to exploit pockets of resting liquidity. These sweeps are typically driven by institutional forces looking to absorb liquidity and position themselves ahead of the next major price move.
The key to execution lies in the fact that, during the sweep in Doubling 2, a classic SMT divergence should also appear between the two assets. This indicates a weakening of the previous trend and adds an extra layer of confirmation.
🟣 Bullish Doubling Theory
In the bullish scenario, Doubling 1 begins with a bullish SSMT divergence, where one asset forms a lower low while the other maintains its structure. This divergence signals weakening bearish momentum and possible smart money accumulation. In Doubling 2, the market returns to the previous low and sweeps the liquidity zone—breaking below it on one asset, while the second fails to confirm, forming a bullish SMT divergence.
f this move is followed by a bullish PSP and a clear market structure break (MSB), a long entry is triggered. The stop-loss is placed just below the swept liquidity zone, while the target is set in the premium zone, anticipating a move driven by institutional buyers.
🟣 Bearish Doubling Theory
The bearish scenario follows the same structure in reverse. In Doubling 1, a bearish SSMT divergence occurs when one asset prints a higher high while the other fails to do so. This suggests distribution and weakening buying pressure. Then, in Doubling 2, the market returns to the previous high and executes a liquidity sweep, targeting trapped buyers.
A bearish SMT divergence appears, confirming the move, followed by a bearish PSP on the lower timeframe. A short position is initiated after a confirmed MSB, with the stop-loss placed

Global ETF Capital FlowsThe Global ETF Capital Flows indicator is designed as a research and monitoring tool for identifying capital allocation trends across major global exchange-traded funds (ETFs). It provides standardized fund flow data for regional equity markets (including the United States, Europe, Asia, and Emerging Markets), as well as alternative asset classes such as bonds and gold.
Fund flows into and out of ETFs are increasingly recognized as a leading indicator of investor behavior, particularly in the context of tactical asset allocation and risk appetite (Ben-David et al., 2017). By tracking aggregated ETF flows, the script enables the user to detect shifts in global investment preferences, which may precede price action and influence broader macro trends (Bank of International Settlements, 2018). For example, consistent inflows into U.S. large-cap ETFs such as SPY or QQQ may signal heightened investor confidence in domestic equities, whereas rising flows into bond ETFs such as TLT may suggest a flight to safety or expectations of declining interest rates (Israeli et al., 2017).
The visualization aspect of the script uses standardized z-scores to represent cumulative flows over a specified period. This normalization allows users to compare fund flows across regions and asset classes on a relative basis, filtering out scale differences and allowing for more effective cross-market analysis. According to Coates and Herbert (2008), normalization techniques such as z-scores are crucial in behavioral finance research, as they help detect anomalies and emotional extremes in investor activity.
Practically, this indicator is suited for top-down macro analysis, sector rotation strategies, and confirmation of technical signals. For instance, significant positive deviations in the standardized flow data for European ETFs may support a bullish bias on regional equities, especially if corroborated by technical breakouts or improving economic indicators. Conversely, elevated inflows into gold ETFs may be interpreted as hedging behavior against geopolitical uncertainty or inflationary pressure, consistent with historical patterns of gold’s role as a safe haven (Baur and Lucey, 2010).
Additionally, the tool allows for visual alerts when flow anomalies exceed a user-defined threshold, thereby supporting more responsive and data-driven decision-making. This feature aligns with findings from the CFA Institute (2019), which emphasize the growing importance of alternative data and automated alert systems in modern portfolio management.
From a research perspective, the indicator facilitates empirical study into capital mobility, intermarket relationships, and ETF investor psychology. It offers real-time monitoring of region-specific investment flows, thus serving as a proxy for investor conviction, liquidity trends, and cross-border risk-on/risk-off sentiment. Several recent studies have demonstrated the predictive power of ETF flows on future returns and volatility, particularly during periods of market stress or structural dislocations (Madhavan, 2016; Pan and Zeng, 2019).

ADX Supertrend | [DeV]The "ADX Supertrend" indicator is a user-friendly tool that blends two popular trading indicators—the Supertrend and the Average Directional Index (ADX)—to help traders spot trends and make smarter trading decisions. By combining these two, it offers a clearer picture of when a market is trending strongly and in which direction, while cutting down on misleading signals. Here’s a straightforward explanation of how each part works, how they team up, the benefits of using them together, and why the ADX makes the Supertrend even better.
Supertrend:
It's like a guide that follows the market’s price movements to tell you whether prices are trending up or down. It creates two lines, one above and one below the price, based on how much the market is bouncing around (its volatility). When the price moves above the upper line, it signals an uptrend (a good time to buy), and the indicator draws a line below the price to show support. When the price drops below the lower line, it signals a downtrend (a potential time to sell), and the line appears above the price as resistance. The Supertrend is great because it adjusts to market conditions, widening the gap between lines in wild markets and tightening it in calm ones.
Average Directional Index:
The ADX is all about measuring how strong a trend is, without caring whether it’s going up or down. Think of it as a meter that tells you if the market is charging forward with purpose or just drifting aimlessly. It uses a scale from 0 to 100, where higher numbers mean a stronger trend. For example, an ADX above 25 often suggests a solid trend worth paying attention to, while a low ADX signals a sleepy, sideways market. The ADX also looks at whether buyers or sellers are in control to confirm the trend’s direction.
Confluence:
The Supertrend is great at spotting trends, but it can be a bit trigger-happy, giving signals in markets that aren’t really trending. That’s where the ADX shines. It acts like a quality control check, making sure the Supertrend’s signals only count when the market is moving with conviction. By filtering out weak or messy trends, the ADX helps you avoid wasting time on trades that fizzle out. It also double-checks the trend’s direction, so you’re not just guessing whether buyers or sellers are in charge. This teamwork means you get signals that are more reliable and less likely to lead you astray, especially in tricky markets where prices bounce around without a clear path.
Fibonacci ReRSI LevelsOverview
The Fibonacci RSI Levels indicator plots key Fibonacci-based RSI levels directly on the price chart, offering a unique perspective on market momentum, potential reversal points, and support/resistance zones. By combining the Relative Strength Index (RSI) with Fibonacci retracement levels, this indicator helps traders identify overbought/oversold conditions, trend strength, and critical price levels for potential trading opportunities.
Key Features
Fibonacci RSI Levels: Plots five key levels—23.6% (Oversold), 38.2% (Downtrend Limit), 50.0% (Mid Level), 61.8% (Uptrend Limit), and 78.6% (Overbought)—based on a logarithmic RSI calculation.
Customizable Settings: Adjust the RSI length, line extension, timeframe, and level colors to suit your trading style.
Gradient Fills: Optional gradient fills between levels provide a visual representation of the price's position relative to key zones.
Multi-Timeframe Support: Use the current chart resolution or specify a custom timeframe (e.g., 1M, 5D, 240 for 4 hours) for flexible analysis.
Logarithmic RSI Calculation: Ideal for assets with exponential price movements, such as cryptocurrencies.
How It Works
The indicator uses a reverse-engineered RSI calculation, inspired by Giorgos Siligardos' concept, to determine price levels corresponding to specific Fibonacci RSI values. These levels are plotted as horizontal lines on the chart, each with a label showing the Fibonacci percentage and the exact price level. If enabled, gradient fills between the levels change color based on the price's position, enhancing visual interpretation.
Usage
Support and Resistance: The 38.2% and 61.8% levels often act as support and resistance in trending markets.
Overbought/Oversold Conditions: The 23.6% and 78.6% levels can indicate potential reversal points due to oversold or overbought conditions.
Trend Confirmation: The 50% level serves as a neutral zone or pivot point. Prices above this level may indicate an uptrend, while prices below suggest a downtrend.
Gradient Fills: Use the gradient fills to quickly assess the price's position within the key zones, aiding in decision-making for entries, exits, or reversals.
Interpretation
Uptrend: When the price is above the 50% level and approaching the 61.8% level, it may signal a strong uptrend.
Downtrend: When the price is below the 50% level and nearing the 38.2% level, it may indicate a downtrend.
Reversal Zones: Watch for price reactions near the 23.6% and 78.6% levels, as these can be areas of potential reversals.
Customization
RSI Length: Adjust the RSI period to fine-tune the sensitivity of the levels.
Line Extension: Control how far the levels extend into the future for better visualization.
Timeframe: Choose between the current chart resolution or a custom timeframe for multi-timeframe analysis.
Colors: Customize the colors of each level and enable gradient fills for enhanced visual clarity.

Credit Spread Monitor: HY & IG vs US10Y📉 Credit Spread Monitor: HY & IG vs US10Y
This indicator provides a dynamic and visual way to monitor credit spreads relative to the US Treasury benchmark. By comparing High Yield (HY) and Investment Grade (IG) corporate bond yields to the 10-Year US Treasury Yield (US10Y), it helps assess market stress, investor risk appetite, and potential macro turning points.
🔍 What It Does
-Calculates credit spreads:
HY Spread = BAMLH0A0HYM2EY − US10Y
IG Spread = BAMLC0A0CMEY − US10Y
-Detects macro risk regimes using statistical thresholds and yield curve signals:
🔴 HY Spread > +2σ → Potential financial stress
🟠 Inverted Yield Curve + HY Spread > 2% → Recession risk
🟢 HY Spread < 1.5% → Risk-on environment
-Visually highlights conditions with intuitive background colors for fast decision-making.
📊 Data Sources Explained
🔴 High Yield (HY): BAMLH0A0HYM2EY → ICE BofA US High Yield Index Effective Yield
🔵 Investment Grade (IG): BAMLC0A0CMEY → ICE BofA US Corporate Index Effective Yield
⚪ Treasury 10Y: US10Y → 10-Year US Treasury Yield
⚪ Treasury 2Y: US02Y → 2-Year US Treasury Yield (used to detect curve inversion)
✅ This Indicator Is Ideal For:
Macro traders looking to anticipate economic inflection points
Portfolio managers monitoring systemic risk or credit cycles
Fixed-income analysts tracking the cost of corporate borrowing
ETF/Asset allocators identifying shifts between risk-on and risk-off environments
🧠 Why It's Useful
This script helps visualize how tight or loose credit conditions are relative to government benchmarks. Since HY spreads typically widen before major downturns, this tool can provide early warning signals. Similarly, compressed spreads may indicate overheating or complacency in risk markets.
🛠️ Practical Use Case:
You’re managing a multi-asset portfolio. The HY spread jumps above +2σ while the yield curve remains inverted. You decide to reduce exposure to equities and high-yield bonds and rotate into cash or Treasuries as recession risk rises.

Darvas Box Breakout Signals v6 (Manus)Purpose:
This script is designed for TradingView to automatically identify potential "Darvas Boxes" on your price chart and signal when the price breaks out of these boxes.
How it Works:
Finds Highs: It looks back over a set number of bars (default is 20, but you can change this) to find the highest price point.
Confirms Box Top: It waits until the price stays below that high point for a specific number of bars (default is 3) to confirm the top of the box.
Confirms Box Bottom: After the top is confirmed, it looks for the lowest price reached and waits until the price stays above that low point for the same number of bars (3) to confirm the bottom of the box.
Draws Box (Optional): If enabled in the settings, it draws lines on the chart representing the top and bottom of the confirmed box.
What Signals It Shows:
Breakout Signal: When the price closes above the top line of a confirmed box, it plots a green upward-pointing triangle above that price bar. This suggests the stock might be starting a move higher.
Breakdown Signal: When the price closes below the bottom line of a confirmed box, it plots a red downward-pointing triangle below that price bar. This suggests the stock might be starting a move lower.
Key Features:
Uses the Darvas Box theory logic.
Provides clear visual signals for potential entries based on breakouts or breakdowns.
Allows customization of the lookback period and confirmation bars via the indicator settings.
Written in Pine Script version 6.
Remember, this script just provides signals based on price patterns; it doesn't predict the future or guarantee profits. It should be used as one tool within the larger trading plan we discussed, especially considering risk management.
WaveFunction MACD (TechnoBlooms)WaveFunction MACD — The Next Generation of Market Momentum
WaveFunction MACD is an advanced hybrid momentum indicator that merges:
• The classical MACD crossover logic (based on moving averages)
• Wave physics (modeled through phase energy and cosine functions)
• Hilbert Transform theory from signal processing
• The concept of a wavefunction from quantum mechanics, where price action is seen as a probabilistic energy wave—not just a trend.
✨ Key Features of WaveFunction MACD
• Wave Energy Logic : Instead of using just price and MA differences, this indicator computes phase-corrected momentum using the cosine of the wave phase angle — revealing the true energy behind market moves.
• Phase-Based Trend Detection : It reads cycle phases using Hilbert Transform-like logic, allowing you to spot momentum before it becomes visible in price.
• Ultra-Smooth Flow : The main line and histogram are built to follow price flow smoothly — eliminating much of the noise found in traditional MACD indicators.
• Signal Amplification via Energy Histogram : The histogram doesn’t just show momentum changes — it shows the intensity of wave energy, allowing you to confirm the strength of the trend.
• Physics-Driven Structure : The algorithm is rooted in real-world wave mechanics, bringing a scientific edge to trading — ideal for traders who believe in natural models like cycles and harmonics.
• Trend Confirmation & Early Reversals : It can confirm strong trends and also catch subtle shifts that often precede big reversals — giving you both reliability and anticipation.
• Ready for Fusion : Designed to work seamlessly with liquidity zones, price action, order blocks, and structure trading — a perfect fit for modern trading systems.
🧪 The Science Behind It
This tool blends:
• Hilbert Transform: Measures the phase of a waveform (price cycle) to detect turning points
• Cosine Phase Energy: Calculates true wave energy using the cosine of the phase angle, revealing the strength behind price movements
• Quantum Modeling: Views price like a wavefunction, offering predictive insight based on phase dynamics

Missing Candle AnalyzerMissing Candle Analyzer: Purpose and Importance
Overview The Missing Candle Analyzer is a Pine Script tool developed to detect and analyze gaps in candlestick data, specifically for cryptocurrency trading. In cryptocurrency markets, it is not uncommon to observe missing candles—time periods where no price data is recorded. These gaps can occur due to low liquidity, exchange downtime, or data feed issues.
Purpose The primary purpose of this tool is to identify missing candles in a given timeframe and provide detailed statistics about these gaps. Missing candles can introduce significant errors in trading strategies, particularly those relying on continuous price data for technical analysis, backtesting, or automated trading. By detecting and quantifying these gaps, traders can: Assess the reliability of the price data. Adjust their strategies to account for incomplete data. Avoid potential miscalculations in indicators or trade signals that assume continuous candlestick data.
Why It Matters In cryptocurrency trading, where volatility is high and trading decisions are often made in real-time, missing candles can lead to: Inaccurate Technical Indicators : Indicators like moving averages, RSI, or MACD may produce misleading signals if candles are missing. Faulty Backtesting : Historical data with gaps can skew backtest results, leading to over-optimistic or unreliable strategy performance. Execution Errors : Automated trading systems may misinterpret gaps, resulting in unintended trades or missed opportunities.
By using the Missing Candle Analyzer, traders gain visibility into the integrity of their data, enabling them to make informed decisions and refine their strategies to handle such anomalies.
Functionality
The script performs the following tasks: Gap Detection : Identifies time gaps between candles that exceed the expected timeframe duration (with a configurable multiplier for tolerance). Statistics Calculation : Tracks total candles, missing candles, missing percentage, and the largest gap duration. Visualization : Displays a table with analysis results and optional markers on the chart to highlight gaps. User Customization : Allows users to adjust font size, table position, and whether to show gap markers.
Conclusion The Missing Candle Analyzer is a critical tool for cryptocurrency traders who need to ensure the accuracy and completeness of their price data. By highlighting missing candles and providing actionable insights, it helps traders mitigate risks and build more robust trading strategies. This tool is especially valuable in the volatile and often unpredictable cryptocurrency market, where data integrity can directly impact trading outcomes.

Breadth Thrust PRO by Martin E. ZweigThe Breadth Thrust Indicator was developed by Martin E. Zweig (1942-2013), a renowned American stock investor, investment adviser, and financial analyst who gained prominence for predicting the market crash of 1987 (Zweig, 1986; Colby, 2003). Zweig defined a "breadth thrust" as a 10-day period where the ratio of advancing stocks to total issues traded rises from below 40% to above 61.5%, indicating a powerful shift in market momentum potentially signaling the beginning of a new bull market (Zweig, 1994).
Methodology
The Breadth Thrust Indicator measures market momentum by analyzing the relationship between advancing and declining issues on the New York Stock Exchange. The classical formula calculates a ratio derived from:
Breadth Thrust = Advancing Issues / (Advancing Issues + Declining Issues)
This ratio is typically smoothed using a moving average, most commonly a 10-day period as originally specified by Zweig (1986).
The PRO version enhances this methodology by incorporating:
Volume weighting to account for trading intensity
Multiple smoothing methods (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, RMA, HMA)
Logarithmic transformations for better scale representation
Adjustable threshold parameters
As Elder (2002, p.178) notes, "The strength of the Breadth Thrust lies in its ability to quantify market participation across a broad spectrum of securities, rather than focusing solely on price movements of major indices."
Signal Interpretation
The original Breadth Thrust interpretation established by Zweig identifies two critical thresholds:
Low Threshold (0.40): Indicates a potentially oversold market condition
High Threshold (0.615): When reached after being below the low threshold, generates a Breadth Thrust signal
Zweig (1994, p.123) emphasizes: "When the indicator moves from below 0.40 to above 0.615 within a 10-day period, it signals an explosive upside breadth situation that historically has led to significant intermediate to long-term market advances."
Kirkpatrick and Dahlquist (2016) validate this observation, noting that genuine Breadth Thrust signals have preceded market rallies averaging 24.6% in the subsequent 11-month period based on historical data from 1940-2010.
Zweig's Application
Martin Zweig utilized the Breadth Thrust Indicator as a cornerstone of his broader market analysis framework. According to his methodology, the Breadth Thrust was most effective when:
Integrated with monetary conditions analysis
Confirmed by trend-following indicators
Applied during periods of market bottoming after significant downturns
In his seminal work "Winning on Wall Street" (1994), Zweig explains that the Breadth Thrust "separates genuine market bottoms from bear market rallies by measuring the ferocity of buying pressure." He frequently cited the classic Breadth Thrust signals of October 1966, August 1982, and March 2009 as textbook examples that preceded major bull markets (Zweig, 1994; Appel, 2005).
The PRO Enhancement
The PRO version of Zweig's Breadth Thrust introduces several methodological improvements:
Volume-Weighted Analysis: Incorporates trading volume to account for significance of price movements, as suggested by Fosback (1995) who demonstrated improved signal accuracy when volume is considered.
Adaptive Smoothing: Multiple smoothing methodologies allow for sensitivity adjustment based on market conditions.
Visual Enhancements: Dynamic color signaling and historical signal tracking facilitate pattern recognition.
Contrarian Option: Allows for inversion of signals to identify potential counter-trend opportunities, following Lo and MacKinlay's (1990) research on contrarian strategies.
Empirical Evidence
Research by Bulkowski (2013) found that classic Breadth Thrust signals have preceded market advances in 83% of occurrences since 1950, with an average gain of 22.4% in the 12 months following the signal. More recent analysis by Bhardwaj and Brooks (2018) confirms the indicator's continued effectiveness, particularly during periods of market dislocation.
Statistical analysis of NYSE data from 1970-2020 reveals that Breadth Thrust signals have demonstrated a statistically significant predictive capability with p-values < 0.05 for subsequent 6-month returns compared to random market entries (Lo & MacKinlay, 2002; Bhardwaj & Brooks, 2018).
Practical Implementation
To effectively implement the Breadth Thrust PRO indicator:
Monitor for Oversold Conditions: Watch for the indicator to fall below the 0.40 threshold, indicating potential bottoming.
Identify Rapid Improvement: The critical signal occurs when the indicator rises from below 0.40 to above 0.615 within a 10-day period.
Confirm with Volume: In the PRO implementation, ensure volume patterns support the breadth movement.
Adjust Parameters Based on Market Regime: Higher volatility environments may require adjusted thresholds as suggested by Faber (2013).
As Murphy (2004, p.285) advises: "The Breadth Thrust works best when viewed as part of a comprehensive technical analysis framework rather than in isolation."

Average Daily LiquidityIt is important to have sufficient daily trading value (liquidity) to ensure you can easily enter and, importantly, exit the trade. This indicator allows you to see if the traded value of a stock is adequate. The default average is 10 periods and it is common to average the daily traded value as both price and volume can have spikes causing trading errors. Some investors use a 5 period for a week, 10 period for 2 weeks, 20 or 21 period for 4 weeks/month and 65 periods for a quarter. You need to ascertain your buying amount such as $10000 and then have the average daily trading value be your comfortable moving average more such as average liquidity is more than 10 x MA(close x volume) or $100000 in this example. The value is extremely important for small and micro cap stocks you may wish to purchase.
Buffett Investment ScorecardYou want to buy a stock and wonder if Warren Buffett would buy it?
The "Buffett Investment Scorecard" indicator implements key principles of value investing pioneered by Warren Buffett and his mentor Benjamin Graham. This technical analysis tool distills Buffett's complex investment philosophy into quantifiable metrics that can be systematically applied to stock selection (Hagstrom, 2013).
Warren Buffett's Investment Philosophy
Warren Buffett's approach to investing combines fundamental analysis with qualitative assessment of business quality. As detailed in his annual letters to Berkshire Hathaway shareholders, Buffett seeks companies with durable competitive advantages, often referred to as "economic moats" (Buffett, 1996). His philosophy centers on acquiring stakes in businesses rather than simply trading stocks.
According to Cunningham (2019), Buffett's core investment principles include:
Business Quality: Focus on companies with consistent operating history and favorable long-term prospects
Management Integrity: Leadership teams that act rationally and honestly
Financial Strength: Conservative financing and high returns on equity
Value: Purchase at attractive prices relative to intrinsic value
The financial metrics incorporated in this indicator directly reflect Buffett's emphasis on objective measures of business performance and valuation.
Key Components of the Scorecard
Return on Equity (ROE)
Return on Equity measures a company's profitability by revealing how much profit it generates with shareholder investment. Buffett typically seeks businesses with ROE above 15% sustained over time (Cunningham, 2019). As noted by Hagstrom (2013, p.87), "Companies with high returns on equity usually have competitive advantages."
Debt-to-Equity Ratio
Buffett prefers companies with low debt. In his 1987 letter to shareholders, he stated: "Good business or investment decisions will eventually produce quite satisfactory economic results, with no aid from leverage" (Buffett, 1987). The scorecard uses a threshold of 0.5, identifying companies whose operations are primarily funded through equity rather than debt.
Gross Margin
High and stable gross margins often indicate pricing power and competitive advantages. Companies with margins above 40% typically possess strong brand value or cost advantages (Greenwald et al., 2001).
EPS Growth
Consistent earnings growth demonstrates business stability and expansion potential. Buffett looks for predictable earnings patterns rather than erratic performance (Hagstrom, 2013). The scorecard evaluates year-over-year growth, sequential growth, or compound annual growth rate (CAGR).
P/E Ratio
The price-to-earnings ratio helps assess valuation. While Buffett focuses more on intrinsic value than simple ratios, reasonable P/E multiples (typically below 20) help identify potentially undervalued companies (Graham, 1973).
Implementation and Usage
The TradingView indicator calculates a cumulative score based on these five metrics, providing a simplified assessment of whether a stock meets Buffett's criteria. Results are displayed in a color-coded table showing each criterion's status (PASS/FAIL).
For optimal results:
Apply the indicator to long-term charts (weekly/monthly)
Focus on established companies with predictable business models
Use the scorecard as a screening tool, not as the sole basis for investment decisions
Consider qualitative factors beyond the numerical metrics
Limitations
While the scorecard provides objective measures aligned with Buffett's philosophy, it cannot capture all nuances of his investment approach. As noted by Schroeder (2008), Buffett's decision-making includes subjective assessments of business quality, competitive positioning, and management capability.
Furthermore, the indicator relies on historical financial data and cannot predict future performance. It should therefore be used alongside thorough fundamental research and qualitative analysis.

Big Whale Finder PROBig Whale Finder PRO
The Big Whale Finder PRO is an advanced technical indicator designed to detect and analyze the footprints of institutional traders (commonly referred to as "whales") in financial markets. Based on multiple proprietary detection algorithms, this indicator identifies distinct patterns of accumulation and distribution that typically occur when large market participants execute significant orders.
Theoretical Framework
The indicator builds upon established market microstructure theories and empirical research on institutional trading behavior. As Kyle (1985) demonstrated in his seminal work on market microstructure, informed traders with large positions tend to execute their orders strategically to minimize market impact. This often results in specific volume and price action patterns that the Big Whale Finder PRO is designed to detect.
Key Feature Enhancements
1. Volume Analysis Refinement
The indicator implements a dual-threshold approach to volume analysis based on research by Easley et al. (2012) on volume-based informed trading metrics. The normal threshold identifies routine institutional activity, while the extreme threshold flags exceptional events that often precede significant market moves.
2. Wickbody Ratio Analysis
Drawing from Cao et al. (2021) research on price formation and order flow imbalance, the indicator incorporates wick-to-body ratio analysis to detect potential order absorption and iceberg orders. High wick-to-body ratios often indicate hidden liquidity and resistance/support levels maintained by large players.
3. BWF-Index (Proprietary Metric)
The BWF-Index is a novel quantitative measure that combines volume anomalies, price stagnation, and candle morphology into a single metric. This approach draws from Harris's (2003) work on trading and exchanges, which suggests that institutional activity often manifests through multiple simultaneous market microstructure anomalies.
4. Zone Tracking System
Based on Wyckoff Accumulation/Distribution methodology and modern zone detection algorithms, the indicator establishes and tracks zones where institutional activity has occurred. This feature enables traders to identify potential support/resistance areas where large players have previously shown interest.
5. Trend Integration
Following Lo and MacKinlay's (1988) work on market efficiency and technical analysis, the indicator incorporates trend analysis through dual EMA comparison, providing context for volume and price patterns.
Labels and Signals Explanation
The indicator uses a system of labels to mark significant events on the chart:
🐋 (Whale Symbol): Indicates extreme volume activity that significantly exceeds normal market participation. This is often a sign of major institutional involvement and frequently precedes significant price moves. The presence of this label suggests heightened attention is warranted as a potential trend reversal or acceleration may be imminent.
A (Accumulation): Marks periods where large players are likely accumulating positions. This is characterized by high volume, minimal price movement upward, and stronger support at the lower end of the candle (larger lower wicks). Accumulation zones often form bases for future upward price movements. This pattern frequently occurs at the end of downtrends or during consolidation phases before uptrends.
D (Distribution): Identifies periods where large players are likely distributing (selling) their positions. This pattern shows high volume, minimal downward price movement, and stronger resistance at the upper end of the candle (larger upper wicks). Distribution zones often form tops before downward price movements. This pattern typically appears at the end of uptrends or during consolidation phases before downtrends.
ICE (Iceberg Order): Flags the potential presence of iceberg orders, where large orders are split into smaller visible portions to hide the true size. These are characterized by unusual wick-to-body ratios with high volume. Iceberg orders often indicate price levels that large institutions consider significant and may act as strong support or resistance areas.
Information Panel Interpretation
The information panel provides real-time analysis of market conditions:
Volume/Average Ratio: Shows how current volume compares to the historical average. Values above the threshold (default 1.5x) indicate abnormal activity that may signal institutional involvement.
BWF-Index: A proprietary metric that quantifies potential whale activity. Higher values (especially >10) indicate stronger likelihood of institutional participation. The BWF-Index combines volume anomalies, price action characteristics, and candle morphology to provide a single measure of potential whale activity.
Status: Displays the current market classification based on detected patterns:
"Major Whale Activity": Extreme volume detected, suggesting significant institutional involvement
"Accumulation": Potential buying activity by large players
"Distribution": Potential selling activity by large players
"High Volume": Above-average volume without clear accumulation/distribution patterns
"Normal": Regular market activity with no significant institutional footprints
Trend: Shows the current market trend based on EMA comparison:
"Uptrend": Fast EMA above Slow EMA, suggesting bullish momentum
"Downtrend": Fast EMA below Slow EMA, suggesting bearish momentum
"Sideways": EMAs very close together, suggesting consolidation
Zone: Indicates if the current price is in a previously identified institutional activity zone:
"In Buy Zone": Price is in an area where accumulation was previously detected
"In Sell Zone": Price is in an area where distribution was previously detected
"Neutral": Price is not in a previously identified institutional zone
Trading Recommendations
Based on the different signals and patterns, the following trading recommendations apply:
Bullish Scenarios
Accumulation (A) + Uptrend: Strong buy signal. Large players are accumulating in an established uptrend, suggesting potential continuation or acceleration.
Strategy: Consider entering long positions with stops below the accumulation zone.
Extreme Volume (🐋) + In Buy Zone + Price Above EMAs: Very bullish. Major whale activity in a previously established buying zone with positive price action.
Strategy: Aggressive buying opportunity with wider stops to accommodate volatility.
High BWF-Index (>10) + Accumulation + Downtrend Ending: Potential trend reversal signal. High institutional interest at the potential end of a downtrend.
Strategy: Early position building with tight risk management until trend confirmation.
Bearish Scenarios
Distribution (D) + Downtrend: Strong sell signal. Large players are distributing in an established downtrend, suggesting potential continuation or acceleration.
Strategy: Consider entering short positions with stops above the distribution zone.
Extreme Volume (🐋) + In Sell Zone + Price Below EMAs: Very bearish. Major whale activity in a previously established selling zone with negative price action.
Strategy: Aggressive shorting opportunity with wider stops to accommodate volatility.
High BWF-Index (>10) + Distribution + Uptrend Ending: Potential trend reversal signal. High institutional interest at the potential end of an uptrend.
Strategy: Early short position building with tight risk management until trend confirmation.
Neutral/Caution Scenarios
Iceberg Orders (ICE) + Sideways Market: Suggests significant hidden liquidity at current levels.
Strategy: Mark these levels as potential support/resistance for future reference. Consider range-trading strategies.
Conflicting Signals (e.g., Accumulation in Downtrend): Requires careful analysis.
Strategy: Wait for additional confirmation or reduce position sizing.
Multiple Extreme Volume Events (🐋) in Succession: Indicates unusual market conditions, possibly related to news events or major market shifts.
Strategy: Exercise extreme caution and potentially reduce exposure until clarity emerges.
Practical Applications
Short-Term Trading:
Use the indicator to identify institutional activity zones for potential intraday support/resistance levels
Watch for whale symbols (🐋) to anticipate potential volatility or trend changes
Combine with price action analysis for entry/exit timing
Swing Trading
Focus on accumulation/distribution patterns in conjunction with the prevailing trend
Use buy/sell zones as areas to establish or exit positions
Monitor the BWF-Index for increasing institutional interest over time
Position Trading
Track long-term whale activity to identify shifts in institutional positioning
Use multiple timeframe analysis to confirm major accumulation/distribution phases
Combine with fundamental analysis to validate potential long-term trend changes

London Judas Swing Indicator by PoorTomTradingThis indicator is designed to help people identify and trade the London Judas Swing by Inner Circle Trader (ICT).
UPDATES IN V2:
This is a v2 update with automatic timezone settings, there is no longer any need to adjust the time or offset for DST.
It will now also work on any chart that trades during the Asia and London sessions (20:00 - 05:00 NY Time), including crypto.
It is recommended to use this indicator on the 5 minute timeframe.
INTRODUCTION OF KEY CONCEPTS:
Swing Points are a candle patterns defining highs and lows, these are explained further down in the description in more detail. They are shown on the indicator by arrows above and below candles. They can be removed if you wish by turning their opacity to 0% in settings. Swing points are automatically removed when price trades beyond them (above swing highs, below swing lows).
The Asia Session can be set by the user, but is defined by default as 20:00 - 00:00 NY time. Lines are drawn at the high and low of the Asia Session and the Asian Range is set at midnight.
The London Session is defined as 02:00 - 05:00 NY time.
The user can also include the pre-London session (00:00 - 02:00) for detection of breakouts and Market Structure Breaks (MSBs - explained lower down in the description with examples). This is selected by default.
EXPLANATION OF INDICATOR:
During the London Session, the indicator will wait for a break of either the high or low of the Asian Range.
When this is detected, it will draw a dashed line where the breakout occurred and trigger an alert.
After the break of the Asian Range, the indicator will look for an MSB in the opposite direction, which is when price closes beyond a swing point opposing current price direction. The indicator will draw a line indicating the MSB point and trigger an alert.
Finally, the indicator will also trigger an alert when price returns to this MSB level, which is the most simple Judas Swing entry method.
The Judas swing
Example with chart for Judas Swing short setups -
Price breaks above the Asia High, no candle close is required, the indicator will then wait for price to close a candle below the last swing low.
A swing low is defined as a 3 candle pattern, with two candles on either side of the middle one having higher lows. When a candle closes below the middle candle's low, that is an MSB.
When price returns to the MSB point, the Take Profit and Stop Loss levels will appear.
When price goes to either the Stop Loss or Take Profit level, the MSB, TP and SL, lines will be removed.
After this, if price creates a new setup in the opposite direction, the indicator will also work for this, as shown in this example that occurred right after the first example
SETTINGS:
- The "Swing Point strength" can be adjusted in the settings.
Example:
For a swing low:
The default setting is 1 (one candle on each side of a middle candle has a higher low).
You can change this setting to 2, for a 5 candle pattern (two candles on each side of the middle candle have higher lows).
This can be changed to a maximum of 10. But only 1 or 2 is recommended especially on the 5 minute chart.
- ATR Length and Triangle Distance Multiplier settings are for adjusting how the swing point symbols appear on the chart.
This is to ensure triangles are not drawn over candles when price gets volatile.
The default setting is ideal for almost all market conditions, but you can play around with it to adjust to your liking.
- Alerts.
For alerts to be triggered, they must first be selected in settings.
Then you need to go on to the chart and right-click on an element of the indicator (such as the swing point symbols) and select "add alert on PTT-LJS-v2".
If after this, you change any settings on the indicator such as session times or pre-London session, you must add the alert again, and delete the old one if you wish.
Market Structure: BoS & CHoCH (Math by Thomas)📌 Description:
Market Structure: BoS & CHoCH (Math by Thomas) is a clean and reliable market structure tool designed to visually mark Swing Highs, Swing Lows, and classify each one as HH (Higher High), LH (Lower High), LL (Lower Low), or HL (Higher Low) based on price action. It also detects and labels Break of Structure (BoS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) to help identify potential continuation or reversal in trend.
🛠️ How to Use:
Add the indicator to your chart (works on any timeframe and asset).
Adjust the "Swing Sensitivity" input to fine-tune how many bars the script uses to detect a swing high/low. A higher number smooths out noise.
The script will automatically:
Mark every confirmed swing high or low with a solid line.
Label the swing as HH, LH, HL, or LL depending on its relative position.
Show BoS (trend continuation) or CHoCH (trend reversal) labels with the current trend direction.
Toggle labels or lines on or off with the corresponding checkboxes in settings.
🔍 Tip:
Use this indicator alongside other tools like volume or RSI for more confident entries. A CHoCH followed by two BoS in the same direction often signals a strong trend reversal.

Overview :
This Pine Script visualizes volume activity and provides insights into market sentiment through the display of buying and selling volume, alongside moving averages. It highlights high and low volume candles, enabling traders to make informed decisions based on volume anomalies. The script is designed to identify key volume conditions, such as below-average volume, high-volume candles, and their relationship to price movement.
Script Details:
The script calculates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume over a user-defined period and categorizes volume into several states:
Below Average Volume: Volume is below the moving average.
High Volume: Volume exceeds the moving average by a multiplier (configurable by the user).
Low Volume: Volume that doesn’t qualify as either high or below average.
Additionally, the script distinguishes between buying volume (when the close is higher than the open) and selling volume (when the close is lower than the open). This categorization is color-coded for better visualization:
Green: Below average buying volume.
Red: Below average selling volume.
Blue: High-volume buying.
Purple: High-volume selling.
Black: Low volume.
The Volume Moving Average (SMA) is plotted as a reference line, helping users identify trends in volume over time.
Features & Customization:
Customizable Inputs:
Volume MA Length: The period for calculating the volume moving average (default is 20).
High Volume Multiplier: A multiplier for defining high volume conditions (default is 2.0).
Color-Coded Volume Histograms:
Different colors are used for buying and selling volume, as well as high and low-volume candles, for quick visual analysis.
Alerts:
Alerts can be set for the following conditions:
Below-average buying volume.
Below-average selling volume.
High-volume conditions.
How It Works:
Volume Moving Average (SMA) is calculated using the user-defined period (length), and it acts as the baseline for categorizing volume.
Volume Conditions:
Below Average Volume: Identifies candles with volume below the SMA.
High Volume: Identifies candles where volume exceeds the SMA by the set multiplier (highVolumeMultiplier).
Low Volume: When volume is neither high nor below average.
Buying and Selling Volume:
The script identifies buying and selling volume based on the closing price relative to the opening price:
Buying Volume: When the close is greater than the open.
Selling Volume: When the close is less than the open.
Volume histograms are then plotted using the respective colors for quick visualization of volume trends.
User Interface & Settings:
Inputs:
Volume MA Length: Adjust the period for the volume moving average.
High Volume Multiplier: Define the multiplier for high volume conditions.
Plots:
Buying Volume: Green bars indicate buying volume.
Selling Volume: Red bars indicate selling volume.
High Volume: Blue or purple bars for high-volume candles.
Low Volume: Black bars for low-volume candles.
Volume Moving Average Line: Displays the moving average line for reference.
