Internal Candle Strength [LuxAlgo]The Internal Candle Strength tool allows traders to divide each chart bar into multiple rows of custom size and inspect the strength of the lower timeframes trends located within each row.
This tool effectively helps traders in identifying the power dynamic between bulls and bears within multiple areas within each bar, providing the ability to conduct LTF analysis.
🔶 USAGE
The strength displayed within each row ranges from 0% to 100%, with 0% being the most bearish and 100% being the most bullish.
Traders should be aware of the extreme probabilities located at the higher/lower end of the bars, as this can signal a change in strength and price direction.
Traders can select the lower timeframe to pull the data from or the row size in the scale of the chart. Selecting a lower timeframe will provide more data to evaluate an area's strength.
Do note that only a timeframe lower than the chart timeframe should be selected.
🔹 Row Size
Selecting a smaller row size will increase the number of rows per bar, allowing for a more detailed analysis. A lower value will also generally mean that less data will be considered when calculating the strength of a specific area.
As we can see on the chart above (all BTCUSD 30m), by selecting a different row size, traders can control how many rows are displayed per bar.
🔶 SETTINGS
Timeframe: Lower timeframe used to calculate the candle strength.
Row Size: Size of each row on the chart scale, expressed as a fraction of the candle range.

MTF Candles [Fadi x MMT]MTF Candles
Overview
The MTF Candles indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders who want to visualize higher timeframe (HTF) candles directly on their current chart. Built with flexibility and precision in mind, this Pine Script indicator displays up to six higher timeframe candles, complete with customizable styling, sweeps, midpoints, fair value gaps (FVGs), volume imbalances, and trace lines. It’s perfect for multi-timeframe analysis, helping traders identify key levels, market structure, and potential trading opportunities with ease.
Key Features
- Multi-Timeframe Candles : Display up to six higher timeframe candles (e.g., 5m, 15m, 30m, 4H, 1D, 1W) on your chart, with configurable timeframes and visibility.
- Sweeps Detection : Identify liquidity sweeps (highs/lows) with customizable line styles, widths, and colors, plus optional alerts for confirmed bullish or bearish sweeps.
- Midpoint Lines : Plot the midpoint (average of high and low) of the previous HTF candle, with customizable color, width, and style for enhanced market analysis.
- Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) : Highlight gaps between non-adjacent candles, indicating potential areas of interest for price action.
- Volume Imbalances : Detect and display volume imbalances between adjacent candles, aiding in spotting significant price levels.
- Trace Lines : Connect HTF candle open, close, high, and low prices to their respective chart bars, with customizable styles and optional price labels.
- Custom Daily Open Times : Support for custom daily candle open times (Midnight, 8:30, or 9:30) to align with specific market sessions.
- Dynamic Labels : Show timeframe names, remaining time until the next HTF candle, and interval labels (e.g., day of the week for daily candles) with adjustable positions and sizes.
- Highly Customizable : Fine-tune candle appearance, spacing, padding, and visual elements to suit your trading style.
How It Works
The indicator renders HTF candles as boxes (bodies) and lines (wicks) on the right side of the chart, with each timeframe offset for clarity. It dynamically updates candles in real-time, tracks their highs and lows, and displays sweeps and midpoints when conditions are met. FVGs and volume imbalances are calculated based on candle relationships, and trace lines link HTF candle levels to their originating bars on the chart.
Sweep Logic
- A bearish sweep occurs when the current candle’s high exceeds the previous candle’s high, but the close is below it.
- A bullish sweep occurs when the current candle’s low falls below the previous candle’s low, but the close is above it.
- Sweeps are visualized as horizontal lines and can trigger alerts when confirmed on the next candle.
Midpoint Logic
- A midpoint line is drawn at the average of the previous HTF candle’s high and low, extending until the next HTF candle forms.
- Useful for identifying potential support/resistance or mean reversion levels.
Imbalance Detection
- FVGs : Identified when a candle’s low is above the next-but-one candle’s high (or vice versa), indicating a price gap.
- Volume Imbalances : Detected between adjacent candles where the body of one candle doesn’t overlap with the next, signaling potential liquidity zones.

How It Works
The indicator analyzes the relationship between the current and previous candles to detect engulfing patterns:
Bullish Engulfing : Triggered when the current candle's low is at or below the previous candle's low, and its close is at or above the previous candle's midpoint. This signal is displayed only if the bias filter is set to 'Neutral' or 'Bullish'.
Bearish Engulfing : Triggered when the current candle's high is at or above the previous candle's high, and its close is at or below the previous candle's midpoint. This signal is displayed only if the bias filter is set to 'Neutral' or 'Bearish'.
The previous candle's midpoint is calculated as the average of its high and low prices.
Usage
- Add to Chart : Apply the indicator to any TradingView chart.
- Configure Bias Filter :
Neutral : Displays both bullish and bearish signals.
Bullish : Displays only bullish signals.
Bearish : Displays only bearish signals.

Staccked SMA - Regime Switching & Persistance StatisticsThis indicator is designed to identify the prevailing market regime by analyzing the behavior of a "stack" of Simple Moving Averages (SMAs). It helps you understand whether the market is currently trending, mean-reverting, or moving randomly.
Core Concept: SMA Correlation
At its heart, the indicator examines the relationship between a set of nine SMAs with different lengths (3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144) and the lengths themselves.
In a strong trending market (either up or down), the SMAs will be neatly "stacked" in order of their length. The shortest SMA will be furthest from the longest SMA, creating a strong, almost linear visual pattern. When we measure the statistical correlation between the SMA values and their corresponding lengths, we get a value close to +1 (perfect uptrend stack) or -1 (perfect downtrend stack). The absolute value of this correlation will be very high (close to 1).
In a mean-reverting or sideways market, the SMAs will be tangled and crisscrossing each other. There is no clear order, and the relationship between an SMA's length and its price value is weak. The correlation will be close to 0.
This indicator calculates this Pearson correlation on every bar, giving a continuous measure of how ordered or "trendy" the SMAs are. An absolute correlation above 0.8 is considered strongly trending, while a value between 0.4 and 0.8 suggests a mean-reverting character. Below 0.4, the market is likely random or choppy.
Regime Classification and Statistics
The indicator doesn't just look at the current correlation; it analyzes its behavior over a user-defined lookback window (default is 252 bars) to classify the overall market "regime."
It presents its findings in a clear table:
📊 |SMA Correlation| Regime Table: This main table provides a snapshot of the current market character.
Median: Shows the median absolute correlation over the lookback period, giving a central tendency of the market's behavior.
% > 0.80: The percentage of time the market was in a strong trend during the lookback period.
% < 0.80 & > 0.40: The percentage of time the market showed mean-reverting characteristics.
🧠 Regime: The final classification. It's labeled "📈 Trend-Dominant" if the median correlation is high and it has spent a significant portion of the time trending. It's labeled "🔄 Mean-Reverting" if the median is in the middle range and it has spent significant time in that state. Otherwise, it's considered "⚖️ Random/ Choppy".
📐 Regime Significance: This tells you how statistically confident you can be in the current regime classification, using a Z-score to compare its occurrence against random chance. ⭐⭐⭐ indicates high confidence (99%), while "❌ Not Significant" means the pattern could be random.
Regime Transition Probabilities
Optionally, a second table can be displayed that shows the historical probability of the market transitioning from one regime to another over different time horizons (t+5, t+10, t+15, and t+20 bars).
📈 → 🔄 → ⚖️ Transition Table: This table answers questions like, "If the market is trending now (From: 📈), what is the probability it will be mean-reverting (→ 🔄) in 10 bars?"
This provides powerful insights into the market's cyclical nature, helping you anticipate future behavior based on past patterns. For example, you might find that after a period of strong trending, a transition to a choppy state is more likely than a direct switch to a mean-reverting
Indicator Settings
Lookback Window for Regime Classification: This sets the number of recent bars (default is 252) the script analyzes to determine the current market regime (Trending, Mean-Reverting, or Random). A larger number provides a more stable, long-term view, while a smaller number makes the classification more sensitive to recent price action.
Show Regime Transition Table: A simple toggle (on/off) to show or hide the table that displays the probabilities of the market switching from one regime to another.
Lookback Offset for Starting Regime: This determines the "starting point" in the past for calculating regime transitions. The default is 20 bars ago. The script looks at the regime at this point and then checks what it became at later points.
Step 1, 2, 3, 4 Offset (bars): These define the future time intervals (5, 10, 15, and 20 bars by default) for the transition probability table. For example, the script checks the regime at the "Lookback Offset" and then sees what it transitioned to 5, 10, 15, and 20 bars later.
Significance Filter Settings
Use Regime Significance Filter: When enabled, this filter ensures that the regime transition statistics only count transitions that were "statistically significant." This helps to filter out noise and focus on more reliable patterns.
Min Stars Required (1=90%, 2=95%, 3=99%): This sets the minimum confidence level required for a regime to be included in the transition statistics when the significance filter is on.
1 ⭐: Requires at least 90% confidence.
2 ⭐⭐: Requires at least 95% confidence (default).
3 ⭐⭐⭐: Requires at least 99% confidence.
Price Ranged FVG📌 Price Ranged FVG
Is a clean and efficient tool designed to detect Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) with adjustable filters and structural context. It’s especially useful for traders looking to filter out insignificant gaps and focus on high-probability areas, particularly around swing breaks or structural shifts.
🧠 What is a Fair Value Gap (FVG)?
A Fair Value Gap appears when there’s a price imbalance between candles — typically after a strong move — where the market skips over certain price levels without trading there. These zones can act as potential areas for price to return to (mean reversion), or serve as support/resistance depending on market structure.
🔍 FVG Detection Types
You can choose between three different detection modes under the "FVG Detection" input:
Same Type: Only detects FVGs where the last 3 candles are in the same direction (all bullish or all bearish).
All: Detects any FVG, regardless of candle direction.
Twin Close: Detects FVGs only when the last two candles are in the same direction and close accordingly — offering a stricter confirmation.
🎯 FVG % Filters
To filter out noise or insignificant gaps, this indicator includes:
Minimum FVG % Filter: Ignores FVGs smaller than your specified percentage of the current close.
Maximum FVG % Filter: Ignores overly large gaps that may be unreliable or caused by anomalies.
These filters help focus on relevant FVGs that are more likely to act as reaction zones.
🏛 Structural Context (Swing Highs and Lows)
The indicator plots swing highs and swing lows with dots to provide structure-based context:
Set Swing Strength to 3 for detecting internal structure (shorter-term moves).
Use a higher setting like 5 to focus on external structure (more significant highs/lows).
These levels can help you determine whether an FVG is forming within a consolidation, breakout, or key structural transition.
✅ Use Case (My Personal Workflow)
I personally use this indicator to:
Filter out weak or irrelevant FVGs using the % filters.
Watch for price interaction at swing breaks — especially when an FVG aligns with a break in internal or external structure.
Refine entry and exit planning in confluence with other tools or strategies.

AV BTC Pi Cycle OscillatorPi Cycle Oscillator
The oscillator version of the Pi Cycle Top Indicator. While I have found great differences in scales being used for the oscillator across various sources. The shape of the oscillator line is on the other hand the same across the board. With 2 specific versions. Either using the 111 Day SMA or the 2*350 SMA for division.
We allow for both versions. It is possible to select the formula for calculation on the input tab.
Either using (111 SMA - 2*350 SMA) / 111 SMA (default) or (111 SMA - 2*350 SMA) / 2*350 SMA .
We multiply the result by -100 so that overbought conditions fall at the top of the indicator chart and oversold at the bottom. Everyone has their own idea of the value range. This is no different.
For both formulas around 0 is overbought zone, while -200 and -70 are oversold areas. Thresholds are configurable in the input tab. I made an arbitrary choice for the thresholds.
If you want to see overbought and oversold areas on the price chart: Enable the Overbought and oversold Overlay area in the style tab. It is disabled by default.
Additionally: Pi Cycle Tops are marked with a red circle. ATH tops are marked with yellow diamonds. Grey lines marks halving days.

Delta Spike Detector [GSK-VIZAG-AP-INDIA]📌 Delta Spike Detector – Volume Imbalance Ratio
By GSK-VIZAG-AP-INDIA
📘 Overview
This indicator highlights aggressive buying or selling activity by analyzing the imbalance between estimated Buy and Sell volume per candle. It flags moments when one side dominates the other significantly — defined by user-selectable volume ratio thresholds (10x, 15x, 20x, 25x).
📊 How It Works
Buy/Sell Volume Estimation
Approximates buyer and seller participation using candle structure:
Buy Volume = Proximity of close to low
Sell Volume = Proximity of close to high
Delta & Delta Ratio
Delta = Buy Volume − Sell Volume
Delta Ratio = Ratio of dominant volume side to the weaker side
When this ratio exceeds a threshold, it’s classified as a spike.
Spike Labels
Labels are plotted on the chart:
10x B, 15x B, 20x B, 25x B → Buy Spike Labels (below candles)
10x S, 15x S, 20x S, 25x S → Sell Spike Labels (above candles)
The color of each label reflects the spike strength.
⚙️ User Inputs
Enable/Disable Buy or Sell Spikes
Set custom delta ratio thresholds (default: 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x)
🎯 Use Cases
Spotting sudden aggressive activity (e.g. smart money moves, traps, breakouts)
Identifying short-term market exhaustion or momentum bursts
Complementing other trend or volume-based tools
⚠️ Important Notes
The script uses approximated Buy/Sell Volume based on price position, not actual order flow.
This is not a buy/sell signal generator. It should be used in context with other confirmation indicators or market structure.

EdgeXplorer - Liquidity ScopeLiquidity Scope by EdgeXplorer
Liquidity Scope is a real-time liquidity detection system developed for traders who want to track where the market is hunting stops, absorbing orders, and setting up traps — often before the average eye catches on. Built to identify the telltale behavior of liquidity sweeps and false breakouts, this tool highlights areas on the chart where price interacts with key swing points, including wicks, breaks, and retests.
⸻
🔍 What Does Liquidity Scope Do?
Liquidity Scope scans price action for swing highs and lows, tracks how price behaves around them, and visually plots zones where liquidity is likely being targeted. It tells you:
• When price wicks into a previous swing without breaking it (a liquidity probe),
• When price breaks past that level and returns (a potential retest),
• And when a sweep is complete or mitigated.
The result? A visual map of where liquidity was grabbed, where it hasn’t been yet, and where price might revisit — all drawn directly on your chart, in real time.
⸻
⚙️ How It Works – Technical Breakdown
Here’s the logic behind the engine:
1. Swing Detection
The script uses ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() to mark structural swing points, using your selected “Swings” length to define sensitivity.
2. Sweep Conditions
For each swing high or low:
• If price wicks into the level but fails to close beyond it → potential liquidity test.
• If price closes beyond the swing → it’s marked as broken.
• If price later retests the broken level from the other side → it’s tagged as a retest zone.
3. Visual Memory
Each swing level stores its own “memory state” (whether it was wicked, broken, retested, or mitigated), allowing the tool to update visuals live and avoid clutter.
4. Dynamic Zones
• When a sweep is detected, the tool draws a colored zone (box) at the sweep location, along with a supporting line.
• These zones extend forward until price clearly invalidates or mitigates them.

📈 Visual Components – What You See on the Chart
Element Meaning
Green Zones / Lines Bullish sweep: liquidity hunted below a swing low
Red Zones / Lines Bearish sweep: liquidity hunted above a swing high
Dotted Lines Wicks — price tested the level without breaking
Dashed Lines Retests — price returned to retest a broken level
Solid Lines Confirmed sweep levels with clean structure
Shaded Boxes Sweep zones extended into the future for monitoring
Faded Transparency Indicates mitigation or that the zone is cooling off
Every visual is tied to a logic branch in the code — nothing is decorative. Each shape or line has meaning tied to price behavior.

🧠 How to Read It in Live Markets
Liquidity Scope doesn’t tell you what to do — it tells you what the market just did in relation to liquidity and structure.
Here’s how to use it:
• Green Zones (Bullish Sweeps):
Price just grabbed liquidity under a low. Watch for:
• A bounce → potential reversal
• A retest → possible long entry confirmation
• Red Zones (Bearish Sweeps):
Price swept above a high. Watch for:
• Immediate rejection → potential short zone
• Pullback and retest → trend continuation trap or fake breakout
• Wick Sweeps Only:
Often seen in range-bound markets or when market makers are testing stops.
• Retest Sweeps:
Often seen in trending markets, validating breakouts or signaling exhaustion.
⸻
🧪 Optional Use Cases & Strategy Tips
Here’s how traders on the EdgeXplorer platform use Liquidity Scope:
• 🔄 Smart Money Concepts: Use sweep zones alongside order blocks, FVGs, and breakers to confirm institutional movement.
• ⚠️ Trap Zones: Spot liquidity fakeouts where retail might be chasing early breakouts.
• 🎯 Entry/Exit Filtering: Use zones to validate entries only when price reacts cleanly around them — or exits when mitigation completes.
• 🧠 Confluence Layer: Combine with trend indicators or volume to add strength to directional bias.
⸻
🔒 Final Note on Use & Compliance
Liquidity Scope is a market behavior visualizer, not a signal generator. It helps you understand where the market might be trapping liquidity, but you are the strategy. Always pair with proper confirmation, risk management, and your own discretion.

Active PMI Support/Resistance Levels [EdgeTerminal]The PMI Support & Resistance indicator revolutionizes traditional technical analysis by using Pointwise Mutual Information (PMI) - a statistical measure from information theory - to objectively identify support and resistance levels. Unlike conventional methods that rely on visual pattern recognition, this indicator provides mathematically rigorous, quantifiable evidence of price levels where significant market activity occurs.
- The Mathematical Foundation: Pointwise Mutual Information
Pointwise Mutual Information measures how much more likely two events are to occur together compared to if they were statistically independent. In our context:
Event A: Volume spikes occurring (high trading activity)
Event B: Price being at specific levels
The PMI formula calculates: PMI = log(P(A,B) / (P(A) × P(B)))
Where:
P(A,B) = Probability of volume spikes occurring at specific price levels
P(A) = Probability of volume spikes occurring anywhere
P(B) = Probability of price being at specific levels
High PMI scores indicate that volume spikes and certain price levels co-occur much more frequently than random chance would predict, revealing genuine support and resistance zones.
- Why PMI Outperforms Traditional Methods
Subjective interpretation: What one trader sees as significant, another might ignore
Confirmation bias: Tendency to see patterns that confirm existing beliefs
Inconsistent criteria: No standardized definition of "significant" volume or price action
Static analysis: Doesn't adapt to changing market conditions
No strength measurement: Can't quantify how "strong" a level truly is
PMI Advantages:
✅ Objective & Quantifiable: Mathematical proof of significance, not visual guesswork
✅ Statistical Rigor: Levels backed by information theory and probability
✅ Strength Scoring: PMI scores rank levels by statistical significance
✅ Adaptive: Automatically adjusts to different market volatility regimes
✅ Eliminates Bias: Computer-calculated, removing human interpretation errors
✅ Market Structure Aware: Reveals the underlying order flow concentrations
- How It Works
Data Processing Pipeline:
Volume Analysis: Identifies volume spikes using configurable thresholds
Price Binning: Divides price range into discrete levels for analysis
Co-occurrence Calculation: Measures how often volume spikes happen at each price level
PMI Computation: Calculates statistical significance for each price level

- Key Warning Signs & What to Watch For
Red Flags:
🚨 Very Low PMI Scores (<0.3): Weak statistical significance, avoid trading
🚨 No Volume Confirmation: PMI level without recent volume spikes may be stale
🚨 Overcrowded Levels: Too many levels close together suggests poor parameter tuning
🚨 Outdated Levels: Historical traces are reference only, not tradeable
Optimization Tips:
✅ Regular Recalibration: Adjust parameters monthly based on market regime changes
✅ Volume Context: Always check for recent volume activity at PMI levels
✅ Multiple Timeframes: Confirm PMI levels across different timeframes
✅ Market Conditions: Higher thresholds during high volatility periods
Interpreting PMI Scores
PMI Score Ranges:
0.5-1.0: Moderate statistical significance, proceed with caution
1.0-1.5: Good significance, reliable for most trading strategies
1.5-2.0: Strong significance, high-confidence trade setups
2.0+: Very strong significance, institutional-grade levels
Historical Context: The historical trace system shows how support and resistance evolve over time. When current levels align with multiple historical traces, it indicates persistent market memory at those prices, significantly increasing the level's reliability.

Alpha - Combined BreakoutThis Pine Script indicator, "Alpha - Combined Breakout," is a combination between Smart Money Breakout Signals and UT Bot Alert, The UT Bot Alert indicator was initially developer by Yo_adriiiiaan
The idea of original code belongs HPotter.
This Indicator helps you identify potential trading opportunities by combining two distinct strategies: Smart Money Breakout and a modified UT Bot (likely a variation of the Ultimate Trend Bot). It provides visual signals, draws lines for potential take profit (TP) and stop loss (SL) levels, and includes a dashboard to track performance metrics.
Tutorial:
Understanding and Using the "Alpha - Combined Breakout" Indicator
This indicator is designed for traders looking for confirmation of market direction and potential entry/exit points by blending structural analysis with a trend-following oscillator.
How it Works (General Concept)
The indicator combines two main components:
Smart Money Breakout: This part identifies significant breaks in market structure, which "smart money" traders often use to gauge shifts in supply and demand. It looks for higher highs/lows or lower highs/lows and flags when these structural points are broken.
UT Bot: This is a trend-following component that generates buy and sell signals based on price action relative to an Average True Range (ATR) based trailing stop.
You can choose to use these signals independently or combined to generate trading alerts and visual cues on your chart. The dashboard provides a quick overview of how well the signals are performing based on your chosen settings and display mode.
Parameters and What They Do
Let's break down each input parameter:
1. Smart Money Inputs
These settings control how the indicator identifies market structure and breakouts.
swingSize (Market Structure Time-Horizon):
What it does: This integer value defines the number of candles used to identify significant "swing" (pivot) points—highs and lows.
Effect: A larger swingSize creates a smoother market structure, focusing on longer-term trends. This means signals might appear less frequently and with some delay but could be more reliable for higher timeframes or broader market movements. A smaller swingSize will pick up more minor market structure changes, leading to more frequent but potentially noisier signals, suitable for lower timeframes or scalping.
Analogy: Think of it like a zoom level on your market structure map. Higher values zoom out, showing only major mountain ranges. Lower values zoom in, showing every hill and bump.
bosConfType (BOS Confirmation Type):
What it does: This string input determines how a Break of Structure (BOS) is confirmed. You have two options:
'Candle Close': A breakout is confirmed only if a candle's closing price surpasses the previous swing high (for bullish) or swing low (for bearish).
'Wicks': A breakout is confirmed if any part of the candle (including its wick) surpasses the previous swing high or low.
Effect: 'Candle Close' provides stronger, more conservative confirmation, as it implies sustained price movement beyond the structure. 'Wicks' provides earlier, more aggressive signals, as it captures momentary breaches of the structure.
Analogy: Imagine a wall. 'Candle Close' means the whole person must get over the wall. 'Wicks' means even a finger touching over the top counts as a breach.
choch (Show CHoCH):
What it does: A boolean (true/false) input to enable or disable the display of "Change of Character" (CHoCH) labels. CHoCH indicates the first structural break against the current dominant trend.
Effect: When true, it helps identify early signs of a potential trend reversal, as it marks where the market's "character" (its tendency to make higher highs/lows or lower lows/highs) first changes.
BULL (Bullish Color) & BEAR (Bearish Color):
What they do: These color inputs allow you to customize the visual appearance of bullish and bearish signals and lines drawn by the Smart Money component.
Effect: Purely cosmetic, helps with visual identification on the chart.
sm_tp_sl_multiplier (SM TP/SL Multiplier (ATR)):
What it does: A float value that acts as a multiplier for the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate the Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels specifically when you're in "Smart Money Only" mode. It uses the ATR calculated by the UT Bot's nLoss_ut as its base.
Effect: A higher multiplier creates wider TP/SL levels, potentially leading to fewer trades but larger wins/losses. A lower multiplier creates tighter TP/SL levels, potentially leading to more frequent but smaller wins/losses.
2. UT Bot Alerts Inputs
These parameters control the behavior and sensitivity of the UT Bot component.
a_ut (UT Key Value (Sensitivity)):
What it does: This integer value adjusts the sensitivity of the UT Bot.
Effect: A higher value makes the UT Bot less sensitive to price fluctuations, resulting in fewer and potentially more reliable signals. A lower value makes it more sensitive, generating more signals, which can include more false signals.
Analogy: Like a noise filter. Higher values filter out more noise, keeping only strong signals.
c_ut (UT ATR Period):
What it does: This integer sets the look-back period for the Average True Range (ATR) calculation used by the UT Bot. ATR measures market volatility.
Effect: This period directly influences the calculation of the nLoss_ut (which is a_ut * xATR_ut), thus defining the distance of the trailing stop loss and take profit levels. A longer period makes the ATR smoother and less reactive to sudden price spikes. A shorter period makes it more responsive.
h_ut (UT Signals from Heikin Ashi Candles):
What it does: A boolean (true/false) input to determine if the UT Bot calculations should use standard candlestick data or Heikin Ashi candlestick data.
Effect: Heikin Ashi candles smooth out price action, often making trends clearer and reducing noise. Using them for UT Bot signals can lead to smoother, potentially delayed signals that stay with a trend longer. Standard candles are more reactive to raw price changes.
3. Line Drawing Control Buttons
These crucial boolean inputs determine which type of signals will trigger the drawing of TP/SL/Entry lines and flags on your chart. They act as a priority system.
drawLinesUtOnly (Draw Lines: UT Only):
What it does: If checked (true), lines and flags will only be drawn when the UT Bot generates a buy/sell signal.
Effect: Isolates UT Bot signals for visual analysis.
drawLinesSmartMoneyOnly (Draw Lines: Smart Money Only):
What it does: If checked (true), lines and flags will only be drawn when the Smart Money Breakout logic generates a bullish/bearish breakout.
Effect: Overrides drawLinesUtOnly if both are checked. Isolates Smart Money signals.
drawLinesCombined (Draw Lines: UT & Smart Money (Combined)):
What it does: If checked (true), lines and flags will only be drawn when both a UT Bot signal AND a Smart Money Breakout signal occur on the same bar.
Effect: Overrides both drawLinesUtOnly and drawLinesSmartMoneyOnly if checked. Provides the strictest entry criteria for line drawing, looking for strong confluence.
Dashboard Metrics Explained
The dashboard provides performance statistics based on the lines drawing control button selected. For example, if "Draw Lines: UT Only" is active, the dashboard will show stats only for UT Bot signals.
Total Signals: The total number of buy or sell signals generated by the selected drawing mode.
TP1 Win Rate: The percentage of signals where the price reached Take Profit 1 (TP1) before hitting the Stop Loss.
TP2 Win Rate: The percentage of signals where the price reached Take Profit 2 (TP2) before hitting the Stop Loss.
TP3 Win Rate: The percentage of signals where the price reached Take Profit 3 (TP3) before hitting the Stop Loss. (Note: TP1, TP2, TP3 are in order of distance from entry, with TP3 being furthest.)
SL before any TP rate: This crucial metric shows the number of times the Stop Loss was hit / the percentage of total signals where the stop loss was triggered before any of the three Take Profit levels were reached. This gives you a clear picture of how often a trade resulted in a loss without ever moving into profit target territory.
Short Tutorial: How to Use the Indicator
Add to Chart: Open your TradingView chart, go to "Indicators," search for "Alpha - Combined Breakout," and add it to your chart.
Access Settings: Once added, click the gear icon next to the indicator name on your chart to open its settings.
Choose Your Signal Mode:
For UT Bot only: Uncheck "Draw Lines: Smart Money Only" and "Draw Lines: UT & Smart Money (Combined)". Ensure "Draw Lines: UT Only" is checked.
For Smart Money only: Uncheck "Draw Lines: UT Only" and "Draw Lines: UT & Smart Money (Combined)". Ensure "Draw Lines: Smart Money Only" is checked.
For Combined Signals: Check "Draw Lines: UT & Smart Money (Combined)". This will override the other two.
Adjust Parameters:
Start with default settings. Observe how the signals appear on your chosen asset and timeframe.
Refine Smart Money: If you see too many "noisy" market structure breaks, increase swingSize. If you want earlier breakouts, try "Wicks" for bosConfType.
Refine UT Bot: Adjust a_ut (Sensitivity) to get more or fewer UT Bot signals. Change c_ut (ATR Period) if you want larger or smaller TP/SL distances. Experiment with h_ut to see if Heikin Ashi smoothing suits your trading style.
Adjust TP/SL Multiplier: If using "Smart Money Only" mode, fine-tune sm_tp_sl_multiplier to set appropriate risk/reward levels.
Interpret Signals & Lines:
Buy/Sell Flags: These indicate the presence of a signal based on your selected drawing mode.
Entry Line (Blue Solid): This is where the signal was generated (usually the close price of the signal candle).
SL Line (Red/Green Solid): Your calculated stop loss level.
TP Lines (Dashed): Your three calculated take profit levels (TP1, TP2, TP3, where TP3 is the furthest target).
Smart Money Lines (BOS/CHoCH): These lines indicate horizontal levels where market structure breaks occurred. CHoCH labels might appear at the first structural break against the prior trend.
Monitor Dashboard: Pay attention to the dashboard in the top right corner. This dynamically updates to show the win rates for each TP and, crucially, the "SL before any TP rate." Use these statistics to evaluate the effectiveness of the indicator's signals under your current settings and chosen mode.
*
Set Alerts (Optional): You can set up alerts for any of the specific signals (UT Bot Long/Short, Smart Money Bullish/Bearish, or the "Line Draw" combined signals) to notify you when they occur, even if you're not actively watching the chart.
By following this tutorial, you'll be able to effectively use and customize the "Alpha - Combined Breakout" indicator to suit your trading strategy.
