Multi Time Frame Candles with Volume Info / 3DHello Traders,
This is my second Multi Time Frame Candles script but with this new one, you will have some new features such volume info, remaining time to close of higher time frame candle and also developed using new features of Pine such array of lines. also I tried to make it 3D for better visualization ;) also it shows new highs/lows / breakouts.
I tried to make many things optional, so you can change almost everything using options.
What you can change using options:
- Higher time frame
- Number of Candles
- Candle Colors Up/Down
- Wick Color
- Volume colors Up/Down
- Text color of Remaining Time
- Shadow Color
- Background color
- Start bar of the candles (so you can see many higher times frame candles in same window)
- 3D effect, by default it's enables but you can disable 3D view
Lets see some examples:
Remaining time:
Breakouts:
You can combine different higher time frames:
if you don't want 3D view then combining different higher time frames:
You can change background color:
Enjoy!
72s: Adaptive Hull Moving Average+One challenging issue for beginner traders is to differentiate market conditions, whether or not the current market is giving best possibility to stack profits, as earliest, in shortest time possible, or not.
On intraday, we've seen some big actions by big banks are somewhat can be defined --or circling around-- by HMA 200 . I've been thinking on to make the visuals more conform to price dynamics (separating major movement and minor noise) to get clearer signs of when it starts to happen. So it will be easier to see in a glance when the strength starts really taken place, with less cluttered chart.
This Adaptive HMA is using the new Pine Script's feature which now support Dynamic Length arguments for several Pine functions. ( read: www.tradingview.com). It hasn't support the built-in HMA() directly, but thankfully we can use its wma() formula to construct. (Note: I tweaked a bit HMA formula already popular here by using plain int() instead of round() on its wma's length, since I find it precisely match tradingview's built-in HMA).
You can choose which aspect the Adaptive HMA period will adapt to.
In this study I present it with two options: Volume and Volatility . It will "moves" faster or slower depends on which situation the aspect is currently into. ie: When volume is generally low or volatile readings is not there, price won't move very much, so the adapting MA will slow down by dynamically lengthen the lookback period, and vice versa, and so on.
Colour-markings in the Adaptive resembles which situation explained above. In addition, I also combine it with slope calculation of the MA to help measuring trend-strength or sideway/choppy conditions.
This way when we use it as dynamic support/resistance it will be more visually-reliable.
Secondly, and more important, it might help us traders with better probability info of whether or not a trade should even worth to be made . ie: If in the mean time market won't give much movement, any profit would also only as much. In most cases, we might better save our dime for later or place it somewhere else.
HOW TO USE:
Aside from better dynamic support/resistance and clearer breakout confirmation, MA is coloured as follow:
YELLOW:
Market is in consolidation or flat. Be it sideways, choppy, or in relatively small movements. If it shows up in a trending market, it may be an earlier sign that current trend might about to change its direction, or confirming a price broke-out to another side.
LIGHT GREEN or LIGHT RED:
Tells if a trend is forming but still relatively weak (or getting weaker), as it doesn't have volume or volatility to support.
DARKER GREEN ot DARKER RED:
This is where we can expect some good and strong price movement to ride. If it's strong enough, many times it marks a start of new long-lasting major trend.
SETTINGS:
Charger:
Choose which aspect your HMA should plug itself into, thus it will adapt to it.
Minimum Period, Maximum Period:
172 - 233 is just my own setting to outmatch the static HMA 200 for intraday. I find it --in my style of trading-- best in 15m tf in almost any pair, and 15m to 1H for some stocks. It also works nicely with conventional EMA 200, sometimes as if they somewhat work hand-in-hand in defining where the price should go. But you can, ofcourse, experiment with other ranges, broader or narrower. Especially if you already have an established strategy to follow to. As you might do with:
Consolidation area threshold:
This has to do with slope calculation. The bigger the number means your MA needs bigger degree to define the market is out of flat (yellow) area. This can be useful if needed to lighten up the filter or vice-versa.
Background colouring:
Just another colouring to help highlighting the difference in market conditions.
ALERTS:
There are two alerts:
Volume Break: when volume is breaking up above average, and
Volatility Meter: when the market more likely is about to have its moment of the big wiggling brush.
USAGE:
Very very nice BUY entry to catch big up-movement if:
1. Price is above MA. (It is best when price is also not to far distance from the MA, or you can also use distance oscillator to help out too)
2. HMA's color is in darker green. Means it's on the charging plug with your chosen aspect.
3. RSI is above 50. This is to help as additional confirmation.
Clear SELL entry signal is same as above, just the opposite.
-------------------------------------------------------
Note:
Lower timeframe of course means more noise to be filtered. Depends on the instrument, you might need to tweak the settings a bit till it conform nicely and shows lots of good trades in history. Here's another example on GBPUSD 5m timeframe:
For exit/take-profit point, you can use a second faster period static HMA. Or you can also use RSI. Here's an example:
Don't get me wrong, on few occasions I found it's still best using static MA to spot fakeouts, breakouts, etc, especially ones that's been already use widely. If that's the case or price actions seems suspicious, simply put the same value for minimum and maximum period settings, and there you have the original HMA with extra features.
For developer, check in the code if you need to customise your own charger.
-------------------------------------------------------
That's it. Hopefully this Adaptive HMA+ could at least be a good sidekick to your own strategy, as it does mine. ;)
[blackcat] L2 Swing Oscillator Swing MeterLevel: 2
Background
Swing trading is a type of trading aimed at making short to medium term profits from a trading pair over a period of a few days to several weeks. Swing traders mainly use technical analysis to look for trading opportunities. In addition to analyzing price trends and patterns, these traders can also use fundamental analysis.
Function
L2 Swing Oscillator Swing Meter is an oscillator based on breakouts. Another important feature of it is the swing meter, which confirms the top or bottom's confidence level with different color candles. The higher of the candles stack up, the higher confidence level is indicated.
Key Signal
absolutebot ---> absolute bottom with very high confidence level
ltbot ---> long term bottom with high confidence level
mtbot ---> middle term bottom with moderate confidence level
stbot ---> short term bottom with low confidence level
absolutetop ---> absolute top with very high confidence level
lttop ---> long term top with high confidence level
mttop ---> middle term top with moderate confidence level
sttop ---> short term top with low confidence level
fastline ---> oscillator fast line
slowline ---> oscillator slow line
Pros and Cons
Pros:
1. reconfigurable swing oscillator based on breakouts
2. swing meter can confirm/validate the bottom and top signal
Cons:
1. not appliable with trading pairs without volume information
2. small time frame may not trigger swing meter function
Remarks
This is a simple but very comprehensive technical indicator
Readme
In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.
ALT_FLAMES00.00 - alt-flames
component breakdown:
a) various combinations of EMA crossovers taken from the primeval_series to create a complete sequence of background colored-lines that subdivide into a bullish portion
and a bearish portion for directional identification
b) specific macd crossovers for predictive power in the form of directional flames located directly above the chart price (navy & yellow flames)
c) unique fast & slow rsi combinations for momentum + strength in the form of power flames located directly above the chart price (orange, red, green, & lime flames)
when the alternation of flames are used in concert with the sequence of background colors, one can identify impending explosive price action, can better navigate through periods of slower activity, identify where they are currently in the trend's lifecycle and, MOST IMPORTANTLY, improve the TIMELINESS of entry and exit strategies
00.01 - primeval_series - overview
the primeval_series is a group of transformed universally-renowned mathematical constants that have been transformed and embedded into a series of EMAs
each of these EMAs relates in some meaningful way to the "original wave' or 'wave_0': i.e. the wave that began at t=0, when humanity first made technological progress
the transformations made ensure that the inherent linkages to the original wave remain intact while being applicable to the structures inherent to indicator development
for the purposes of the alt-flames indicator, certain numbers selected from the primeval_series exist and are the basis of each ema , MACD and RSI calculation made herein
00.02 - alt-flames - best practices, and ideal targets
for best use: start with the daily timeframe for broad pattern, then use hourly going forward
ideal for swing trades, shorter-term options, and stocks that already have well-established uptrends, but have also started consolidating for 1+ week
patience is required to catch the ideal break, so best to use mildly OTM calls with at least 2 weeks on them before expiry.
for great use: pick out stocks that have recently broken out heavily from their pivot . Do not enter until the retracement from the top has a defined local low
for average use: any sort of intraday play. this tool is meant for swing trades and sustained breakouts. picking out significant bottom reversals.
the MACD portion is not geared for big reversals here. Rather, it is complementary to the EMA sequences, which are at the core of the indicator
not useful for: shorting stocks that are trending downward or that are in sideways trends
ORB - Openning Range BreakoutORB - Opening Range Breakout (Indicator)
This indicator visualizes the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) for the New York market session (9:30 AM – 4:00 PM NY), highlighting the High and Low of the first 5 minutes of the session.
Key Features:
Automatically calculates the High and Low of the 9:30 AM candle and updates if subsequent candles expand the range within the first 5 minutes.
Plots invisible lines representing the High and Low of the opening range throughout the session.
Fills the area between High and Low with a semi-transparent background, clearly showing the opening range zone.
Works on any intraday timeframe and adapts automatically to the NY session.
Perfect for breakout strategies, visually marking early support and resistance zones.
How to Use:
The shaded area between High and Low indicates the opening range.
Traders can watch for breakouts above the High or breakdowns below the Low for potential entry signals.
Can be combined with trend or volume indicators for confirmation.
Notes:
The session is automatically calculated using New York time.
Background transparency can be adjusted to your preference.
London Breakout Structure by Ale 2This indicator identifies market structure breakouts (CHOCH/BOS) within a specific London session window, highlighting potential breakout trades with automatic entry, stop loss (SL), and take profit (TP) levels.
It helps traders focus on high-probability breakouts when volatility increases after the Asian session, using price structure, ATR-based volatility filters, and a custom risk/reward setup.
🔹 Example of Strategy Application
Define your session (e.g. 04:00 to 05:00).
Wait for a CHOCH (Change of Character) inside this session.
If a bullish CHOCH occurs → go LONG at candle close.
If a bearish CHOCH occurs → go SHORT at candle close.
SL is set below/above the previous swing using ATR × multiplier.
TP is calculated automatically based on your R:R ratio.
📊 Example:
When price breaks above the last swing high within the session, a “BUY” label appears and the indicator draws Entry, SL, and TP levels automatically.
If the breakout fails and price closes below the opposite structure, a “SELL” signal will replace the bullish setup.
🔹 Details
The logic is based on structural shifts (CHOCH/BOS):
A CHOCH occurs when price breaks and closes beyond the most recent high/low.
The indicator dynamically detects these shifts in structure, validating them only inside your chosen time window (e.g. the London Open).
The ATR filter ensures setups are valid only when the range has enough volatility, avoiding false signals in low-volume hours.
You can also visualize:
The session area (purple background)
Entry, Stop Loss, and Take Profit levels
Direction labels (BUY/SELL)
ATR line for volatility context
🔹 Configuration
Start / End Hour: define your preferred trading window.
ATR Length & Multiplier: adjust for volatility.
Risk/Reward Ratio: set your desired R:R (default 1:2).
Minimum Range Filter: avoids signals with tight SLs.
Alerts: receive notifications when breakout conditions occur.
🔹 Recommendations
Works best on 15m or 5m charts during London session.
Designed for breakout and structure-based traders.
Works on Forex, Crypto, and Indices.
Ideal as a visual and educational tool for understanding BOS/CHOCH behavior.
Opening Range Break LRSThis script is designed for a trend-following, opening range breakout strategy. The main idea is to only trade breakouts that happen in the same direction as the short-term trend, which the script identifies using a linear regression slope.
1. Identify the Short-Term Trend
This is the first and most important step. The script does this for you using the Linear Regression and the bar coloring.
• If the bars are colored BLUE: The linear regression slope is positive. This means the script considers the short-term trend to be UP. A trader using this script would only look for long (buy) trades.
• If the bars are colored YELLOW: The linear regression slope is negative. This means the script considers the short-term trend to be DOWN. A trader using this script would only look for short (sell) trades.
This filter is designed to prevent you from trading a "false breakout" against the immediate momentum.
2. Watch the Opening Ranges Form
At the start of the trading session (8:30 AM by default), the script will begin drawing boxes for the 5, 15, 30, and 60-minute opening ranges you've enabled.
• The 5-minute box (e.g., gray) will be set after the 8:30 - 8:35 period.
• The 15-minute box (e.g., blue) will be set after the 8:30 - 8:45 period.
• ...and so on.
These boxes, which extend for the rest of the day, represent the key high and low levels established at the open. The "Live Box Extension" input simply keeps the right edge of the box a few bars away from the current price so you can see it clearly.
3. Look for a Filtered Breakout Signal
This is where the trend filter (Step 1) and the range boxes (Step 2) come together.
Bullish Trade Example (Long):
1. A trader sees the bars are colored BLUE (uptrend). They are now only looking for a break above one of the ORB highs.
2. They will ignore any break below the ORB lows, as that would be trading against the trend filter.
3. The price moves up and finally closes above the 15-minute ORB high.
4. The script will plot a green "Break 15" label. This is the trader's signal to enter a long trade.
Bearish Trade Example (Short):
1. A trader sees the bars are colored YELLOW (downtrend). They are now only looking for a break below one of the ORB lows.
2. They will ignore any break above the ORB highs.
3. The price moves down and closes below the 5-minute ORB low.
4. The script will plot a red "Break 5" label. This is the trader's signal to enter a short trade.
4. Use Multiple Timeframes for Context
The real power of this script is seeing all the ranges at once. A trader wouldn't just trade them in isolation.
• Confirmation: A "Break 5" signal is a quick, early signal. But if the price also breaks the "15" and "30" minute highs, it signals much stronger bullish consensus, which might encourage the trader to hold the trade longer.
• Support & Resistance: The other ORB levels act as a map for the day.
o As Targets: If a trader takes a "Break 15" long signal, the 30-minute ORB high and 60-minute ORB high become logical profit targets.
o As Warning Signs: If the price gives a "Break 5" long signal but is struggling right under the 15-minute high, a trader might wait for that 15-minute level to break before entering, seeing it as a key resistance level.
Summary: A Trader's Workflow
1. Morning (8:30 AM): Watch the script. What color are the bars? (Blue = longs only, Yellow = shorts only).
2. Wait: Let the 5, 15, 30, and 60-minute ranges form. The boxes will be drawn on the chart.
3. Execute: Wait for a "Break" signal (a label) that matches your trend direction.
4. Manage: Use the other ORB levels as potential profit targets or as confirmation of the move's strength.
5. Single Signal: The "Single Signal Only" input, if checked, ensures they only get one signal per timeframe (e.g., one "Break 15" long, and that's it for the day), which helps prevent over-trading in choppy conditions.

Trendline Breakouts With Targets [ omerprıme ]Indicator Explanation (English)
This indicator is designed to detect trendline breakouts and provide early trading signals when the price breaks key support or resistance levels.
Trendline Detection
The indicator identifies recent swing highs and lows to construct dynamic trendlines.
These trendlines act as support in an uptrend and resistance in a downtrend.
Breakout Confirmation
When the price closes above a resistance trendline, the indicator generates a bullish breakout signal.
When the price closes below a support trendline, it generates a bearish breakout signal.
Filtering False Signals
To reduce false breakouts, additional conditions (such as candle confirmation, volume filters, or price momentum) can be applied.
Only significant and confirmed breakouts are highlighted.
Trading Logic
Buy signals are triggered when the price breaks upward through resistance with confirmation.
Sell signals are triggered when the price breaks downward through support with confirmation.
Bollinger Keltner Squeeze Indicator (BBKC)Bollinger Keltner Squeeze Indicator (BBKC)This single-pane indicator combines the power of Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC) to accurately identify periods of low volatility compression—the famous Squeeze—which often precedes large, directional moves.Designed for traders utilizing Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution (AMD) strategies, this tool makes spotting the 'Accumulation' phase simple and visually clear, perfect for high BTC Beta equities or futures markets like MES and MNQ.Key Features:Clear Squeeze Visualization:The background of the main chart is shaded Orange when the Squeeze is active (BB is inside KC). This immediately highlights periods of extreme compression.A simple Red/Green Dot below the chart confirms the Squeeze state (Red = Squeeze ON, Green = Squeeze OFF).Momentum Histogram:A built-in momentum oscillator smooths price action and guides the anticipated direction of the breakout.Teal/Orange Bars: Indicate momentum direction while the Squeeze is active (building pressure).Bright Green/Red Bars: Indicate momentum direction after the Squeeze has broken (expansion/breakout).How to Find Maximum Volatility Compression (The "Tightest" Squeeze)To align this indicator with a strategy focused on catching only the most extreme volatility compression—the key to those explosive moves—traders should adjust the Keltner Channel Multiplier setting.Setting Name: KC Multiplier (ATR)Default Value: 1.5Recommended Adjustment: To filter for only the absolute tightest squeezes (where price is least volatile), decrease this multiplier value, typically down to 1.25 or even 1.0.By lowering the KC Multiplier (ATR), you narrow the Keltner Channel boundaries. This requires the Bollinger Bands to compress even further to fit inside, ensuring the indicator only signals the Squeeze state during moments of truly minimal volatility, setting you up for maximum opportunity.
Cycle-Synced Channel Breakout📌 Cycle-Synced Channel Breakout – Detect Breakouts Confirmed by Candles and Momentum Cycles
📖 Overview
The Cycle-Synced Channel Breakout indicator is a precision breakout detection tool that combines the power of:
• Adaptive Keltner Channels
• Dominant Cycle Period Analysis (Ehlers-inspired)
• Candlestick Pattern Recognition (Engulfing)
This multi-layered approach helps identify true breakout opportunities by filtering out noise and false signals, making it ideal for swing traders and intraday traders seeking high-probability directional moves.
⚙️ How It Works
1. Keltner Channel Envelope
A dynamic volatility channel based on the EMA and ATR defines the upper and lower bounds of price movement.
2. Engulfing Candle Detection
The script detects strong bullish and bearish engulfing patterns, which often signal trend reversals or momentum continuations.
3. Dominant Cycle Momentum (Ehlers-inspired)
Using a smoothed power oscillator derived from a detrended price series, the indicator assesses whether momentum is accelerating during the breakout — filtering out weak moves.
4. Signal Confirmation Logic
A signal is only shown when:
• An engulfing pattern is detected, and
• Price breaks out of the Keltner Channel, and
• Momentum (cycle power) is rising
5. Visual Feedback
• Breakout signals are plotted with “BUY” or “SELL” labels
• Faded green/red background highlights confirmed breakouts
• Optional display of engulfing candles with triangle markers
⸻
🛠️ Key Features
• ✅ Adaptive Keltner Channels
• ✅ Bullish/Bearish Engulfing Candle Recognition

Volumetric Support and Resistance [BackQuant]Volumetric Support and Resistance
What this is
This Overlay locates price levels where both structure and participation have been meaningful. It combines classical swing points with a volume filter, then manages those levels on the chart as price evolves. Each level carries:
• A reference price (support or resistance)
• An estimate of the volume that traded around that price
• A touch counter that updates when price retests it
• A visual box whose thickness is scaled by volatility
The result is a concise map of candidate support and resistance that is informed by both price location and how much trading occurred there.
How levels are built
Find structural pivots uses ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow with a user set sensitivity. Larger sensitivity looks for broader swings. Smaller sensitivity captures tighter turns.
Require meaningful volume computes an average volume over a lookback period and forms a volume ratio for the current bar. A pivot only becomes a level when the ratio is at least the volume significance multiplier.
Avoid clustering checks a minimum level distance (as a percent of price). If a candidate is too close to an existing level, it is skipped to keep the map readable.
Attach a volume strength to the level estimates volume strength by averaging the volume of recent bars whose high to low range spans that price. Levels with unusually high strength are flagged as high volume.
Store and draw levels are kept in an array with fields for price, type, volume, touches, creation bar, and a box handle. On the last bar, each level is drawn as a horizontal box centered at the price with a vertical thickness scaled by ATR. Borders are thicker when the level is marked high volume. Boxes can extend into the future.
How levels evolve over time
• Aging and pruning : levels are removed if they are too old relative to the lookback or if you exceed the maximum active levels.
• Break detection : a level can be removed when price closes through it by more than a break threshold set as a fraction of ATR. Toggle with Remove Broken Levels.
• Touches : when price approaches within the break threshold, the level’s touch counter increments.
Visual encoding
• Boxes : support boxes are green, resistance boxes are red. Box height uses an ATR based thickness so tolerance scales with volatility. Transparency is fixed in this version. Borders are thicker on high volume levels.
• Volume annotation : show the estimated volume inside the box or as a label at the right. If a level has more than one touch, a suffix like “(2x)” is appended.
• Extension : boxes can extend a fixed number of bars into the future and can be set to extend right.
• High volume bar tint : bars with volume above average × multiplier are tinted green if up and red if down.
Inputs at a glance
Core Settings
• Level Detection Sensitivity — pivot window for swing detection
• Volume Significance Multiplier — minimum volume ratio to accept a pivot
• Lookback Period — window for average volume and maintenance rules
Level Management
• Maximum Active Levels — cap on concurrently drawn levels
• Minimum Level Distance (%) — required spacing between level prices
Visual Settings
• Remove Broken Levels — drop a level once price closes decisively through it
• Show Volume Information on Levels — annotate volume and touches
• Extend Levels to Right — carry boxes forward
Enhanced Visual Settings
• Show Volume Text Inside Box — text placement option
• Volume Based Transparency and Volume Based Border Thickness — helper logic provided; current draw block fixes transparency and increases border width on high volume levels
Colors
• Separate colors for support, resistance, and their high volume variants
How it can be used
• Trade planning : use the most recent support and resistance as reference zones for entries, profit taking, or stop placement. ATR scaled thickness provides a practical buffer.
• Context for patterns : combine with breakouts, pullbacks, or candle patterns. A breakout through a high volume resistance carries more informational weight than one through a thin level.
• Prioritization : when multiple levels are nearby, prefer high volume or higher touch counts.
• Regime adaptation : widen sensitivity and increase minimum distance in fast regimes to avoid clutter. Tighten them in calm regimes to capture more granularity.
Why volume support and resistance is used in trading
Support and resistance relate to willingness to transact at certain prices. Volume measures participation. When many contracts change hands near a price:
• More market players hold inventory there, often creating responsive behavior on retests
• Order flow can concentrate again to defend or to exit
• Breaks can be cleaner as trapped inventory rebalances
Conditioning level detection on above average activity focuses attention on prices that mattered to more participants.
Alerts
• New Support Level Created
• New Resistance Level Created
• Level Touch Alert
• Level Break Alert
Strengths
• Dual filter of structure and participation, reducing trivial swing points
• Self cleaning map that retires old or invalid levels
• Volatility aware presentation using ATR based thickness
• Touch counting for persistence assessment
• Tunable inputs for instrument and timeframe
Limitations and caveats
• Volume strength is an approximation based on bars spanning the price, not true per price volume
• Pivots confirm after the sensitivity window completes, so new levels appear with a delay
• Narrow ranges can still cluster levels unless minimum distance is increased
• Large gaps may jump past levels and immediately trigger break conditions
Practical tuning guide
• If the chart is crowded: increase sensitivity, increase minimum level distance, or reduce maximum active levels
• If useful levels are missed: reduce volume multiplier or sensitivity
• If you want stricter break removal: increase the ATR based break threshold in code
• For instruments with session patterns: tailor the lookback period to a representative window
Interpreting touches and breaks
• First touch after creation is a validation test
• Multiple shallow touches suggest absorption; a later break may then travel farther
• Breaks on high current volume merit extra attention
Multi timeframe usage
Levels are computed on the active chart timeframe. A common workflow is to keep a higher timeframe instance for structure and a lower timeframe instance for execution. Align trades with higher timeframe levels where possible.
Final Thoughts
This indicator builds a lightweight, self updating map of support and resistance grounded in swings and participation. It is not a full market profile, but it captures much of the practical benefit with modest complexity. Treat levels as context and decision zones, not guarantees. Combine with your entry logic and risk controls.
Bullish 1st Breakaway FVG Stop Loss
This indicator provides a defined 3-tier stop loss placement when you want to trade the 1st Bullish Breakaway FVG strategy. The Bullish Breakaway Dual Session FVG indicator is an independent indicator that track all bullish breakaway candles, however this one only tracks the very 1st breakaway candle with a stop loss visual cue.
Introduction of Bullish Breakaway Consolidated FVG:
Inspired by the FVG Concept:
This indicator is built on the Fair Value Gap (FVG) concept, with a focus on Consolidated FVG. Unlike traditional FVGs, this version only works within a defined session (e.g., ETH 18:00–17:00 or RTH 09:30–16:00).
Bullish consolidated FVG & Bullish breakaway candle
Begins when a new intraday low is printed. After that, the indicator searches for the 1st bullish breakaway candle, which must have its low above the high of the intraday low candle. Any candles in between are part of the consolidated FVG zone. Once the 1st breakaway forms, the indicator will shades the candle’s range (high to low).
Session Reset: Occurs at session close.
Choose your own session: use 930 to 1615 for RTH, 1800 to 1615 for ETH. (New York Time Zone)
Repaint Behavior:
If a new intraday (or intra-session) low forms, earlier breakaway patterns are wiped, and the system restarts from the new low.
Product Optimization:
This indicator is designed for CME future product with New York time zone. If you want to trade other products, please adjust your own time session.
Entry:
Long after the 1st Bullish Breakaway Candle in your active session.
However, best position of long is executed by your own trading skill and edge.
Stop Loss: ξ
ξ: This is the 1st stop loss, it is 1 equal size of the breakaway candle below the low.
ξξ: This is the 2nd stop loss, it is 2 equal sizes of the breakaway candle below the low.
L: This is the 3rd stop loss, it is the intraday session low.
Stop loss calculation:
Assuming you enter at the high of the breakaway candle, the SL number is shown as the high minus the stop loss placement.
Last Mention:
If you don't see anything in the indicator, adjust your session to an active session only, and use Tradingview replay function. This indicator is a live indicator with repainting mechanism.
Lumiere’s Indicator BundleThe Lumiere’s Indicator Bundle combines three of Lumiere’s most used tools into one script:
🔹 BOS Mark-out – Marks Breaks of Structure with clear bullish/bearish levels and optional alerts.
🔹 Liquidity Mark-ou t – Draws significant swing highs/lows and automatically removes them once swept.
🔹 Trading Session High/Low – Tracks Asia, London, and New York session ranges with customizable timezone.
Why this bundle?
I made this bundle so everyone can run all my indicators at once without having to pick and choose between them or worry about chart space limits.
Instead of loading 3 separate indicators, this package gives you everything in one place. You can toggle each module (BOS, Liquidity, Sessions) on or off from the settings. All inputs are kept clean and organized in their own sections for easy adjustments.
What to expect
BOS lines always plotted on top for maximum clarity.
Liquidity highs/lows update in real time and get removed when taken out.
Session ranges show the active session’s high/low and can mark sweeps after the session closes.
Default timezone is New York (UTC-4), but you can switch to any TradingView-supported timezone.
BOS alerts are included, so you’ll never miss a structural break.
SmartPlusSmartPlus
Overview
The SmartPlus indicator is a complete framework for intraday traders. It combines key market reference points (VWAP, moving averages, and the first 15-minute high/low range) with predictive levels based on historical daily moves. Together, these elements allow traders to build directional bias, spot breakouts, and manage risk throughout the session.
Key Features
1. VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price)
- Plots the intraday VWAP in real time.
- VWAP acts as a central “fair value” reference point for institutional order flow.
- Price trading above VWAP generally suggests bullish bias, while below VWAP leans bearish.
2. Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)
- Two configurable EMAs are included:
- Fast EMA (default: 21 periods)
- Slow EMA (default: 34 periods)
- Each EMA is plotted with a single, user-selectable color for clarity.
- Crossovers or alignment between price, VWAP, and EMAs help define market structure.
3. Smart Bar Coloring
- Candles automatically change color when conditions align:
- Bull Zone: Price above VWAP, Fast EMA, and Slow EMA.
- Bear Zone: Price below VWAP, Fast EMA, and Slow EMA.
- Fluorescent bar coloring helps highlight momentum zones visually without additional analysis.
4. First 15-Minute High/Low/Mid (Automatic)
- Automatically detects the first 15 minutes of each new trading day (no manual input required).
- Plots horizontal lines for:
- First 15-Minute High (green)
- First 15-Minute Low (red)
- Midpoint of that range (gray)
- Once the initial 15-minute window ends, these levels remain projected throughout the session as breakout or support/resistance zones.
- Alerts trigger when price breaks above the high or below the low after the window.
5. Daily Support/Resistance Forecast
- Uses a rolling lookback of recent daily ranges (default: 126 days).
- Tracks average up moves and down moves from the daily open.
- Optionally incorporates standard deviation for wider confidence bands.
- Plots forecast levels above/below the current day’s open for reference.
Trading Logic (How to Use)
- Bullish Bias:
- Price is above VWAP, above both EMAs, and ideally above the first 15-minute high.
- This setup suggests trend continuation or breakout opportunities on the long side.
- Bearish Bias:
- Price is below VWAP, below both EMAs, and ideally below the first 15-minute low.
- This setup suggests downward pressure or breakout opportunities on the short side.
- Neutral / Caution Zone:
- Price caught between VWAP, EMAs, or inside the 15-minute range often signals indecision.
- Best to wait for confirmation or breakout before committing to trades.
Expectations After Using It
- The script provides context and structure, not trading signals.
- It highlights where price is relative to meaningful market levels so traders can act with greater confidence.
- Combining VWAP, EMAs, and the 15-minute breakout framework helps traders stay aligned with the market’s natural rhythm.

Nifty Smart Zones & Breakout Bars(5min TF only) by Chaitu50cNifty Smart Zones & Breakout Bars is a purpose-built intraday trading tool, tested extensively on Nifty50 and recommended for Nifty50 use only.
All default settings are optimised specifically for Nifty50 on the 5-minute timeframe for maximum accuracy and clarity.
Why Last Bar of the Session Matters
The last candle of a trading session often represents the final battle between buyers and sellers for that day.
It encapsulates closing sentiment, influenced by end-of-day positioning, profit booking, and institutional activity.
The high and low of this bar frequently act as strong intraday support/resistance in the following sessions.
Price often reacts around these levels, especially when combined with volume surges.
Core Features
Session Last-Candle Zones
Plots a horizontal box at the high and low of the last candle in each session.
Boxes extend to the right to track carry-over levels into new sessions.
Uses a stateless approach — past zones reappear if relevant.
Smart Suppression System
When more than your Base Sessions (No Suppression) are shown, newer zones overlapping or within a proximity distance (in points) of older zones are hidden.
Older zones take priority, reducing chart clutter while keeping critical levels.
Breakout Bar Coloring
Highlights breakout bars in four categories:
Up Break (1-bar)
Down Break (1-bar)
Up Break (2-bar)
Down Break (2-bar)
Breakouts use a break buffer (in ticks) to filter noise.
Toggle coloring on/off instantly.
Volume Context (User Tip)
For best use, pair with volume analysis.
High-volume breakouts from last-session zones have greater conviction and can signal sustained momentum.
Usage Recommendations
Instrument: Nifty50 only (tested & optimised).
Timeframe: 5-minute chart for best results.
Approach:
Watch for price interaction with the plotted last-session zones.
Combine zone breaks with bar color signals and volume spikes for higher-probability trades.
Use suppression to focus on key, non-redundant levels.
Why This Tool is Different
Unlike standard support/resistance plotting, this indicator focuses on session-closing levels, which are more reliable than arbitrary highs/lows because they capture the final market consensus for the session.
The proximity-based suppression ensures your chart stays clean, while breakout paints give instant visual cues for momentum shifts.

Zero Lag Liquidity [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script plots liquidity zones with zero lag using lower-timeframe wick profiles and high-volume wicks to mark key price reactions. It’s called Zero Lag Liquidity because it captures significant liquidity imbalances in real time by processing lower-TF price-volume distributions directly inside the wick of abnormal candles. The tool builds a volume histogram inside long upper/lower wicks, then calculates a local Point of Control (POC) to mark the price where most volume occurred. These levels act as visual liquidity zones, which can trigger labels, break signals, and trend detection depending on price interaction.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The core concept relies on identifying high-volume candles with unusually long wicks—often a sign of opposing liquidity. When a large upper or lower wick appears with a strong volume spike, the script builds a histogram of lower-timeframe closes and volumes inside that wick. It bins the wick into segments, sums volume per bin, and finds the POC. This POC becomes the liquidity level. The script then dynamically tracks whether price breaks above or rejects off these levels, adjusts the active trend regime accordingly, and highlights bars to help users spot continuation or reversal behavior. The logic avoids repainting or subjective interpretation by using fixed thresholds and lower-TF price action.
🟠 FEATURES
Dynamic liquidity levels rendered at POC of significant wicks, colored by bullish/bearish direction.
Break detection that removes levels once price decisively crosses them twice in the same direction.
Rejection detection that plots ▲/▼ markers when price bounces off levels intrabar.
Volume labels for each level, shown either as raw volume or percentage of total level volume.
Candle coloring based on trend direction (break-dominant).
🟠 USAGE
Use this indicator to track where liquidity has most likely entered the market via abnormal wick events. When a long wick forms with high volume, the script looks inside it (using your chosen lower timeframe) and marks the most traded price within it. These levels can serve as expected reversal or breakout zones. Rejections are marked with small arrows, while breaks trigger trend shifts and remove the level. You can toggle trend coloring to see directional bias after a breakout. Use the wick multiplier to control how selective the detector is (higher = stricter). Alerts and label modes help customize the signal for different asset types and chart styles.

█ Overview
The Opening-Range Breakout strategy is a mechanical, session‑based day‑trading system designed to capture the initial burst of directional momentum immediately following the market open. It defines a user‑configurable “opening range” window, measures its high and low boundaries, then places breakout stop orders at those levels once the range closes. Built‑in filters on minimum range width, reward‑to‑risk ratios, and optional reversal logic help refine entries and manage risk dynamically.
█ How It Works
Opening‑Range Formation
Between 9:30–10:15 AM ET (configurable), the script tracks the highest high and lowest low to form the day’s opening range box.
On the first bar after the range window closes, the range high (OR_high) and low (OR_low) are “locked in.”
Range‑Width Filter
To avoid false breakouts in low‑volatility mornings, the range must be at least X% of the current price (default 0.35%).
If the measured opening-range width < minimum threshold, no orders are placed that day.
Entry & Order Placement
Long: a stop‑buy order at the opening‑range high.
Short: a stop‑sell order at the opening‑range low.
Only one side can trigger (or both if reverse logic is enabled after a losing trade).
Risk Management
Once triggered, each trade uses an ATR‑style stop-loss defined as a percentage retracement of the range (default 50% of range width).
Profit target is set at a configurable Reward/Risk Ratio (default 1.1×).
Optional: Reverse on Stop‑Loss – if the initial breakout loses, immediately reverse into the opposite side on the same day.
Session Exit
Any open positions are closed at the end of the regular trading day (default 3:45 PM ET window end, with hard flat at session close).
Visual cues are provided via green (range high) and red (range low) step‑line plots directly on the chart, allowing you to see the range box and breakout triggers in real time.
█ Why It Works
Early Momentum Capture: The first 15 – 60 minutes of trading encapsulate overnight news digestion and institutional order flow, creating a well‑defined volatility “range.”
Mechanical Discipline: Clear, rule‑based entries and exits remove emotional guesswork, ensuring consistency.
Volatility Filtering: By requiring a minimum range width, the system avoids choppy, low‑range days where false breakouts are common.
Dynamic Sizing: Stops and targets scale with the opening range, adapting automatically to each day’s volatility environment.

Pivot and Wick Boxes with Break Signals█ OVERVIEW
This Pine Script® indicator draws support and resistance levels based on high and low pivot points and the wicks of pivot candles. When the price breaks these levels, breakout signals are generated, with an optional volume filter for greater precision. The indicator is fully customizable, allowing users to adjust box styles, pivot length, and signal settings.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator relies on several key elements to identify and visualize important price levels and trading signals:
Pivot Identification
High and low pivots are detected using the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions with a configurable pivot length. Boxes are drawn based on the pivot level and the wick of the pivot candle (top for high pivots, bottom for low pivots).
List of Features
1 — High and Low Pivot Boxes: The indicator draws boxes based on high pivot candles (red) and low pivot candles (green) and their wicks, with options to customize colors, border styles, and background gradient. Boxes are limited to 500 bars back, meaning support and resistance levels older than 500 candles are not displayed to maintain chart clarity.
2 — Breakout Signals: When the price closes above the upper edge of a high pivot box, a breakout signal is generated (green triangle below the bar). When the price closes below the lower edge of a low pivot box, a breakout signal is generated (red triangle above the bar).
Signals can be filtered using volume, requiring the volume at the breakout to exceed the average volume multiplied by a configurable multiplier.
3 — Box Management: The indicator limits the number of displayed boxes (default is 15 for high pivots and 15 for low pivots), removing the oldest boxes when the limit is reached. Boxes older than 500 bars are automatically removed.
Volume Filtering
An optional volume filter allows users to require breakout signals to be confirmed by volume exceeding the moving average of volume (calculated over a selected period, default is 20 days).
█ OTHER SECTIONS
FEATURES
• Show High/Low Pivot Boxes: Enables or disables the display of boxes for high and low pivots.
• Pivot Length: Specifies the number of bars back and forward for detecting pivots (default is 5).
• Max Boxes: Sets the maximum number of boxes for high and low pivots (default is 15).
• Volume Filter: Enables a volume filter for breakout signals, with a configurable multiplier and average period.
• Box Style: Allows customization of border color, background gradient, border width, and border style (solid, dashed, dotted).
HOW TO USE
1 — Add the indicator to your TradingView chart by selecting “Pivot and Wick Boxes with Break Signals” from the indicators list.
2 — Configure the settings in the indicator’s dialog window, adjusting pivot length, maximum number of boxes, colors, and style.
3 — Enable the volume filter if you want signals to be confirmed by high volume.
4 — Monitor breakout signals (green triangles below bars for upward breakouts, red triangles above bars for downward breakouts) on the chart.
LIMITATIONS
• New pivots are detected with a delay equal to the set pivot length. A lower pivot length value results in faster pivot detection but produces pivots with less significance as support or resistance levels compared to those generated with a longer value.
• Breakout signals may produce false signals in volatile market conditions, especially without the volume filter.
• Boxes are limited to 500 bars back, which may exclude older pivots on long-term charts.
