The One Trader Toolkit - Open AccessThis script is the open version of my existing invite-only script of the same name and has been opened for access to the community to use, but not modify or clone in any way.
This has been done as the invite-only script cannot be changed back to a public script and vice-versa, keeping in line with Tradingview House Rules.
The code is based on a full strategy that has been explained in detail as follows:
// Step 1:
// We will consider the 200ema a standard to assess the average price over the longer term.
// If the current price on the daily chart is seen above the 200ema, we will consider that the stock is in a long term uptrend.
// If the current price on the daily chart is seen below the 200ema, we will consider that the stock is in a long term downtrend.
// In order to assess the long term trend, a band is plotted between the CLOSE (Average price), HIGH (Average High Price), LOW (Average Low Price) of the last 200 days.
// This band has been color coded for easy visual recognition. Green fill between ema close and ema high. Red fill between ema close and ema low.
// The methodology explains that the trader should have a long bias when the price is above the green part of the band and a short bias while price is below the red part of the band.
// Step 2:
// Now we come to a lower timeframe analysis with the 200ema moving average on the hourly timeframe.
// This is marked by a very distinct solid blue line which cannot be missed.
// If the price is still above this moving average and correlates with the higher timeframe trend in step 1, then we will continue our analysis.
// Otherwise, the stock is not ready to be filtered down and we will move to another stock.
// Step 3:
// On the same hourly timeframe, we will continue further analysing the position of a red 50ema line as compared to the same blue 200ema line or a separetely plotted gray 200ema line.
// If the 50ema is above the blue or the gray 200ema line (and in correlation with trend in steps 1-3), then the stock is believed to be bullish.
// If the 50ema is below the blue or the gray 200ema line (and in correlation with trend in steps 1-3), then the stock is believed to be bearish.
// Step 4:
// After multiple confirmation of a continuing trend, we will try to ascertain a good entry point.
// On the one hour timeframe, we will apply the Phase Changer.
// Phase Changer configuration is derived from a common setup which includes the 8ema and 20ema lines.
// I have implemented it in the Indian stock market setup with an added theory that we ignore the Phase Changer position on any timeframe higher than hourly timeframe.
// So the Phase Changer is not only an indication of the continuing trend, but also a great indicator of what the price is trying to achieve through its interaction with the lines.
// If 8ema is above the 20ema on the hourly chart, then the stock is believed to be bullish.
// If 8ema is below the 20ema on the hourly chart, then the stock is believed to be bearish.
// The same will be done on 15 minutes timeframe.
// In either setup, if there is a pullback and price is touching any of the two ema lines and eventually gets rejected towards the continuing trend, then it is an indication of a good entry at the failure of the pullback.
// Step 5:
// After confirmation through Daily, Hourly and 15 minutes timeframes, we will now come to the execution (5 Minute) timeframe.
// Apply the breakfast range. This is the range formed during the first hour of trading.
// The high of the first hour and the low of the first hour form the breakfast breakout.
// This method is also widely known as Open Range Breakout (ORB).
// The breakfast range is commonly used for stock indices only on a Monday morning, we use it for all days of the week and mostly on stocks.
// If the breakout is consistent with the trend that we have been confirming since step 1, we will enter the trade.
// Step 6:
// An additional daily range has been plotted for those who would like to trade the breakout of the daily range.
// This is the sum of the open price of the day the range of the previous day.
// The green line is used as resistance and the red line is used as support.
// Any breakout of those lines will be considered a strong continuation of the trend, mostly until the end of the trading session.
// Miscellaneous
// The first hour of the trading day is marked yellow with a black solid bar marked at the end of the first hour.
// All trades will be taken only after 10:20am.
// Stoploss Settings
// We will be calculating stoploss with the help of the ATR values.
// I have defined two stop loss levels, one for safe traders and the other for aggressive traders.
// Safe traders will select the safe option in a long trade or short trade respectively and mark the stoploss indicated at the time of taking the breakout entry.
// Aggressive traders on the other hand will select the aggressive stop loss option in long or short trades respectively and mark the stoploss indicated at the time of taking the breakout entry.

Litt Opening Range BreakoutThe Litt ORB, Opening Range Breakout, is a tool used by many intraday traders to take advantage of short-term momentum. This script plots extensions based on the opening range and then color candles depending on where the closing price of that candle is. The opening range is defined by either the first 30 or 60 minutes of a new trading day. During that time the opening ranges are set. If the opening range time has passed and we start to break above the Opening Range High that is a good indication that a Trend Day to the upside could be forming. When a stock takes out the range high from the first 30 or 60 minutes this is called an Opening Range Breakout.
OR = Opening Range
ORH = Opening Range High
ORL = Opening Range Low
ORM = Opening Range Mid (Half-way between ORH and ORL)
You can see the ORH and ORL (Opening Range) lines on the chart. The other lines are extension lines from the Opening Range. These are used as price targets for the end of Opening Range breakouts.
The candles are colored as follows.
If we are above the ORH then we use Bull Color 1.
If we are below the ORL then we use Bull Color 2.
If we are above the ORM, Opening Range Mid or the halfway point between the ORH and the ORL, we color Bull Color 2.
If we are below the ORM then we color Bear Color 2.
If the current time is still within the Opening Range then we color the Opening Range Color.
OR = Opening Range
ORH = Opening Range High
ORL = Opening Range Low
ORM = Opening Range Mid (Half-way between ORH and ORL)
Volume Positive Negative (VPN)The idea and calculations for the Volume Positive Negative (VPN) indicator were created by Markos Katsanos. Markos wrote about the indicator in the article Detecting High-Volume Breakouts, published in Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities April, 2021 (Vol. 39, Issue 5).
The goal of the VPN indicator is to detect breakouts using only volume. The basic idea is to compare volume on up days versus volume on down days. The indicator can oscillate between the range of -100 and 100. Values between 0 and 20 are generally considered bullish, negative are bearish.
When the plotted VPN crosses over what Markos refers to as the critical value, that may indicate a high volume breakout. The critical value can be adjusted between 0 to 20, 10 is the default,
Volume Positive Negative Calculation (VPN)
VPN = (VP - VN) / MAV / Period * 100
VP - sum of positive volume
VN - sum of negative volume
MAV - moving average of volume
Volume is considered positive when the average price is higher than the previous day's price by more than .1 of the ATR (average true range).
Low Volatility Breakout Detector)This indicator is designed to visually identify potential breakouts from consolidation during periods of low volatility. It is based on classic Bollinger Bands and relative volume. Its primary purpose is not to generate buy or sell signals but to assist in spotting moments when the market exits a stagnation phase.
Arrows appear only when the price breaks above the upper or below the lower Bollinger Band, the band width is below a specified threshold (expressed in percentage), and volume is above its moving average multiplied by a chosen multiplier (default is 1). This combination may indicate the start of a new impulse following a period of low activity.
The chart background during low volatility is colored based on volume strength—the lower the volume during stagnation, the less transparent the background. This helps quickly spot unusual market behavior under seemingly calm conditions. The background opacity is dynamically scaled relative to the range of volumes over a selected period, which can be set manually (default is 50 bars).
The indicator works best in classic horizontal consolidations, where price moves within a narrow range and volatility and volume clearly decline. It is not intended to detect breakouts from formations such as triangles or wedges, which may not always exhibit low volatility relative to Bollinger Bands.
Settings allow you to adjust:
Bollinger Band length and multiplier,
Volatility threshold (in %),
Background and arrow colors,
Volume moving average length and multiplier,
Bar range used for background opacity scaling.
Note: For reliable results, it’s advisable to tailor the volatility threshold and volume/background ranges to the specific market and timeframe, as different instruments have distinct dynamics. If you want the background color to closely match the color of breakout arrows, you should set the same volume analysis period as the volume moving average length.
Additional note: To achieve a cleaner chart and focus solely on breakout signals, you can disable the background and Bollinger Bands display in the settings. This will leave only the breakout arrows visible on the chart, providing a clearer and more readable market picture.
TradeChartist Volatility Trader ™TradeChartist Volatility Trader is a Price Volatility based Trend indicator that uses simple to visualize Volatility steps and a Volatility Ribbon to trade volatility breakouts and price action based on lookback length.
===================================================================================================================
Features of ™TradeChartist Volatility Trader
======================================
The Volatility steps consists of an Upper band, a Lower band and a Mean price line that are used for detecting the breakouts and also used in plotting the Volatility Ribbon based on the price action. The Mean Line is colour coded based on Bull/Bear Volatility and exhaustion based on Price action trend.
In addition to the system of Volatility Steps and Volatility Ribbon, ™TradeChartist Volatility Trader also plots Bull and Bear zones based on high probability volatility breakouts and divides the chart into Bull and Bear trade zones.
Use of External Filter is also possible by connecting an Oscillatory (like RSI, MACD, Stoch or any Oscillator) or a non-Oscillatory (Moving Average, Supertrend, any price scale based plots) Signal to confirm the Bull and Bear Trade zones. When the indicator detects the Volatility breakouts, it also checks if the connected external signal agrees with the trend before generating the Bull/Bear entries and plotting the trade zones.
Alerts can be created for Long and Short entries using Once per bar close .
===================================================================================================================
Note:
Higher the lookback length, higher the Risk/Reward from the trade zones.
This indicator does not repaint , but on the alert creation, a potential repaint warning would appear as the script uses security function. Users need not worry as this is normal on scripts that employs security functions. For trust and confidence using the indicator, users can do bar replay to check the plots/trade entries time stamps to make sure the plots and entries stay in the same place.
™TradeChartist Volatility Trader can be connected to ™TradeChartist Plug and Trade to generate Trade Entries, Targets etc by connecting Volatility Trader's Trend Identifier as Oscillatory Signal to Plug and Trade.

Magnetic Zones v1.1 BetaMagnetic Zones v1.1 Beta
This is one of the most powerful and effective indicator which I personally use for Intraday.
It works well for trending stocks and trending days.
What are the Zones?
The zones are basically Retracement and Reversal Zones. The price will take a halt at this zones. So it will be easy to take an entry.
How to use?
Labels:
Pivot = P
Major Zones = R1, R2, R3, S1, S2, S3
Minor Zones = R0.5, R1.5, R2.5, S0.5, S1.5, S2.5
Previous Day High & Low = PDH, PDL
Breakout:
Opens between Previous Day High or Low and R1 or S1 Zone and taking retracement at the zone can result in a breakout.
Entry Time:
No Entry: 0 to 15min. Wait for the early Algo rush to settle down. Just go through the shortlisted stocks or top gainers and top losers.
Risky Entry: 15min to 30min. It is the right or early time to participate in the beginning of a rally. But, recommended only for experienced, disciplined and planned traders.
Moderate Risk: 30min to 45min
Safe Entry: After 45min to 1hr
Stock Selection Tip:
Use Expanded Floor Pivots to spot Narrow Range stocks.
Entry Tip:
Use Opening Range Breakout (15, 30, 45 or 1hr) to spot false shoot ups.
Entry:
After the retracement on or closer to the zones.
If the retracement happens in between spaces of the zones expect next retracement at the next in between space. Imagine the levels accordingly.
Retracement is the right time to make an entry with minimum stoploss.
Stoploss:
Just below the longest candle which touches the zone.
Target:
If it is a trending stock the price will move easily from one major zone to another major zone.
If the zones are wider on a particular day use the minor zones as target.
Consider the historical support and resistance, highs and lows to confirm the entry or exit.
Indicator Features:
Inclusion of 2nd and 3rd zones: Helpful to identify the target zone and to participation in a major rally.
Clean and cluster free look
Shows only required zones
Hide historical levels
Previous day High and Low levels
Multi time-frame

CPR by Anand with PDL/PDH & Breakouts 15/30 minsThis is an enhanced version of CPR by Anand with Configurable previous day high and low and option to configure breakout lines of 15 and 30 mins.
Will be an useful tool for day traders who follows CPR tricks and breakouts.
DepthHouse - Envelope OscillatorDepthHouse Envelope Oscillator is designed to show dynamic support and resistance, along with possible over extension.
The indicator has two main functions. The Standard function (top) and the Shifted function (bottom).
The Standard Function:
The oscillators outermost edges represent dynamic support and resistance. These points can often represent excellent buy and sell opportunities. Especially in a ranging market.
Anything below or above these lines often represent a possible breakout or overexertion in either direction.
The Shift Function:
This works very similar to the standard function, however this actually offsets the calculations x to the right. This can be an excellent tool for breakout traders. In many breakouts, the horizontal lines actually shift from resistance to support, and visa versa depending on trend direction.
With this function enabled, the user can designate the position of the horizontal lines, which adjusts the buy sell signals in the middle as well.
Signals Beta:
Both functions give possible buy and sell signals shown by the circles in the middle. The strength of the signal is shown by the circle size. The larger the circle, the stronger the signal.
This feature is in beta testing is not advised to trade off of.

Auto Trendlines [AlgoXcalibur]Effortlessly visualize trendlines.
This algorithm does more than just draw lines connecting structural swing points — it reveals dynamic support & resistance breakouts with clarity and precision while significantly reducing your workload compared to the hassle of manually drawing trendlines.
🧠 Algorithm Logic
This advanced Auto Trendlines indicator delivers clear market structure through an intelligent multi-fractal design, revealing useful swing structures in real time. For those seeking maximum awareness, the optional Micro Trendlines (Dotted) constantly monitors even the most recent and minor structural shifts — keeping you fully in tune with evolving market dynamics. A Break Detection Engine constantly monitors each trendline and provides instant visual feedback when structural integrity is lost: broken lines turn gray, stop extending, and remain visible to enhance clarity and situational awareness. The algorithm is carefully refined to prevent chart distortion commonly caused by forcing entire trendline structures into view — preserving a natural and accurate charting experience. To further ensure optimal readability, an integrated Clutter Control mechanism limits the number of visible trendlines — focusing attention only on the most relevant structures.
⚙️ User-Selectable Features
• Micro Trendlines (Dotted): Ultra-responsive short-term trendlines that react to even the smallest structural shifts — ideal for staying ahead of early trend changes.
• Broken Trendline Declutter: Enable to display only the most recent broken trendlines to simplify chart visuals and maintain clarity, or disable to analyze previous price action.
💡 Modern Innovation
Auto Trendline indicators are often inaccurate, clumsy, and rely on slow methods that fail to adapt. AlgoXcalibur’s Auto Trendline indicator takes a modern, refined approach — combining smart pivot logic for both speed and stability, dynamic break detection with clear visual cues, and displaying only the most relevant trendlines while prioritizing accuracy, preventing distortion, and reducing clutter — automatically.

Trend Breakout [Uncle Sam Trading]Trend Breakout Indicator
Overview
The Trend Breakout Indicator is a powerful, non-repainting tool designed to help traders identify high-probability breakout and trend reversal setups on any market and timeframe. By leveraging pivot points, this indicator draws dynamic support and resistance channels, highlights counter-trend breakouts, and provides visual cues for market direction. It’s ideal for traders looking to simplify their analysis while targeting key price levels for entries and exits.
Key Features
Pivot-Based Channels: Draws a red upper channel (resistance) and a green lower channel (support) by connecting recent pivot highs and lows.
Counter-Trend Breakout Signals:
Blue “CT Breakup” signal (▲) when the price breaks above the upper channel during a downtrend, indicating a potential reversal or pullback.
Orange “CT Breakdown” signal (▼) when the price breaks below the lower channel during an uptrend, signaling a potential downmove.
Trend Visualization: Background color shifts to green for uptrends and red for downtrends, making it easy to gauge market direction.
Customizable Settings: Adjust pivot detection sensitivity with “Pivot Left Bars” (default: 5) and “Pivot Right Bars” (default: 1), and control channel extension with “Channel Extension Bars” (default: 50).
Optional Trend Signals: Enable “Show Trend Change Signals” to display trend shifts with green (uptrend) or red (downtrend) arrows.
Alert Conditions: Set alerts for counter-trend breakouts and trend changes directly on TradingView.
Example Performance (BTCUSDT, 1-Hour Chart)
On the BTCUSDT 1-hour chart:
A “CT Breakdown” signal appeared on April 6 at 8:00 AM at $82,700, followed by a drop to $74,400 within hours—a 10% move.
A “CT Breakup” signal occurred on April 9 at 1:00 AM at $76,600, leading to a rally to $86,600 in a few hours—a 9% gain.
These examples highlight the indicator’s ability to spot significant price movements, though results depend on market conditions, your trading style, and risk management.
Settings
Pivot Left Bars (default: 5): Number of bars to the left for pivot detection.
Pivot Right Bars (default: 1): Number of bars to the right for pivot confirmation (ensures non-repainting signals).
Channel Extension Bars (default: 50): How far the channels extend to the right.
Show Pivot Points (default: true): Displays small triangles at pivot highs (maroon) and lows (navy).
Show Counter-Trend Breakout Signals (default: true): Shows CT Breakup and CT Breakdown signals.

London Breakout Tracker - Box Style📊 London Breakout Tracker (Pine Script v6)
This script is designed to track the Asian session range and identify breakout opportunities when the London session begins. It highlights high-probability trade setups and helps avoid fakeouts or overly wide ranges.
🧱 1. Session Time Definitions (Adjusted for Kenyan Time)
The Asian session is defined as:
3:00 AM to 11:00 AM (Kenyan Time)
🔐 2. Asian Session High & Low
During the Asian session:
The script tracks the highest high and lowest low to define the range.
These are stored in variables: asianHigh and asianLow.
🧊 3. Box Drawing for the Asian Range
Once the Asian session ends:
A visual box is drawn around the session using box.new().
This box spans from the session start to end bars and from the high to low.
It helps visually see the range price must break out from.
🚨 4. Breakout Signals
After the Asian session:
A Long Breakout signal is generated if:
The candle closes above the Asian High.
A Short Breakout signal is generated if:
The candle closes below the Asian Low.
This corresponds to 00:00 to 08:00 UTC
These are shown with:
✅ Green up label for long breakouts
❌ Red down label for short breakouts
🧯 5. Fakeout Detection
If price breaks out but closes back inside the Asian range, it’s marked as a Fakeout:
Long Fakeout: Price breaks above high, then closes back below.
Short Fakeout: Price breaks below low, then closes back above.
These are marked with orange X-crosses above or below candles.
⚠️ 6. Wide Range Filter
If the Asian session range is too wide (e.g. > 40 pips), a gray background is drawn.
This warns you not to trade that day since breakouts from wide ranges are unreliable.
📣 7. Alert Conditions
The script can trigger alerts in TradingView when:
🔔 A Long or Short Breakout occurs
⚠️ A Fakeout is detected
You can set these up via the TradingView alert system.
🎯 Overall Purpose:
The script helps you:
Clearly see the Asian session range
Identify breakout opportunities at the London open
Avoid trading during fakeouts or wide-range sessions
Get alerted when breakout/fakeout conditions occur
Bollinger Bands MTF & Kalman Filter | Flux Charts📈 Multi-Timeframe Kalman Filtered Bollinger Bands Indicator
Introducing our MTF Kalman Filtered Bollinger Bands – a powerful multi-timeframe Bollinger Bands (BB) indicator enhanced with Kalman filtering for superior smoothing and trend analysis. This indicator dynamically adapts Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes while incorporating volume-based gradient transparency to highlight significant price movements. This indicator is better optimized for lower timeframes.
❓ How to Interpret the Bands & Volume Gradient:
Our indicator combines Lower Timeframe (LTF) and Higher Timeframe (HTF) Bollinger Bands to provide a comprehensive trend analysis. It applies Kalman filtering to the LTF bands, ensuring smoother, noise-reduced signals. The color gradient and relative volume-based transparency offer deeper insights into price strength.
🔹 LTF Bollinger Bands: Shorter-period bands filtered with a Kalman smoothing algorithm, reducing lag and noise.
🔹 HTF Bollinger Bands: Traditional Bollinger Bands plotted on a higher timeframe, offering macro trend analysis.
🔹 Volume Gradient Transparency: The bands adjust their opacity based on relative buy/sell volume, allowing traders to assess momentum strength.
📌 How Does It Work?
1️⃣ Multi-Timeframe Bollinger Bands Calculation
The LTF BB uses Kalman filtering for a smoother price representation, helping to reduce false signals.
The HTF BB is EMA-smoothed for improved trend clarity.
2️⃣ Adaptive Gradient Transparency
The opacity of the fill color between the bands is determined by relative buy/sell volume.
Higher buy volume = stronger bullish signal (greener bands).
Higher sell volume = stronger bearish signal (redder bands).
3️⃣ Dynamic Trend Signals & Breakouts
Buy Signal: When price breaks below the HTF lower band and LTF bands start rising.
Sell Signal: When price breaks above the HTF upper band and LTF bands start falling.
⚙️ Settings & Customization:
🛠 LTF and HTF Bollinger Bands Settings:
Multiplier: The multiplier applied to the BB to determine the upper and lower bands
Length: Define the number of bars determines the BB calculations.
Custom Timeframe Selection: Choose from predefined options (e.g., 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H, etc).
🎨 Gradient & Transparency Settings:
Bullish/Bearish Color Options: Customize colors for uptrend and downtrend conditions.
Max & Min Opacity: Adjust the transparency levels based on volume intensity.
Solid vs. Gradient Mode: Choose between a gradient fill or a solid color mode for clarity.
📌 Recommended Settings for Optimal Use:
1️⃣ Timeframe Selection (LTF -> HTF):
1 min -> 5 min
2 min -> 5 min
3 min -> 15 min
5 min -> 15 min
15 min -> 1 hr
1 hr -> 4 hr
4 hr -> 1 day
2️⃣ Multiplier: Use 2.0 for LTF and 2.25 for HTF
3️⃣Length: Use a length of 20 - 30 bars
🚀 Why Use This Indicator?
✅ Multi-Timeframe Bollinger Bands with Kalman Filtering – Ideal for traders looking for reduced lag and clearer trend signals.
✅ Volume-Based Transparency – See momentum shifts instantly with adaptive opacity.
✅ Dynamic Buy & Sell Signals – Alerts based on price action + volume trends.
✅ Customizable for Any Strategy – Adjust colors, timeframes, and filtering options for personalized trading.
TrendPredator FOTrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter (FO)
The TrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter is designed to enhance multi-timeframe trend analysis by identifying key market behaviors that indicate trend strength, weakness, and potential reversals. Inspired by Stacey Burke’s trading approach, this tool focuses on trend-following, momentum shifts, and trader traps, helping traders capitalize on high-probability setups.
At its core, this indicator highlights peak formations—anchor points where price often locks in trapped traders before making decisive moves. These principles align with George Douglas Taylor’s 3-day cycle and Steve Mauro’s BTMM method, making the FO Highlighter a powerful tool for reading market structure. As markets are fractal, this analysis works on any timeframe.
How It Works
The TrendPredator FO highlights key price action signals by coloring candles based on their bias state on the current timeframe.
It tracks four major elements:
Breakout/Breakdown Bars – Did the candle close in a breakout or breakdown relative to the last candle?
Fakeout Bars (Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low and close back inside, but still in line with the trend?
Fakeout Bars (Counter-Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low, close back inside, and against the trend?
Switch Bars – Did the candle lose/ reclaim the breakout/down level of the last bar that closed in breakout/down, signalling a possible trend shift?
Reading the Trend with TrendPredator FO
The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
- Breakouts → Strong Trend
Multiple candles closing in breakout signal a healthy and strong trend.
- Fakeouts (Trend Close) → First Signs of Weakness
Candles that break out but close back inside suggest a potential slowdown—especially near key levels.
- Fakeouts (Counter-Trend Close) → Stronger Reversal Signal
Closing against the trend strengthens the reversal signal.
- Switch Bars → Momentum Shift
A shift in trend is confirmed when price crosses back through the last closed breakout candles breakout level, trapping traders and fuelling a move in the opposite direction.
- Breakdowns → Trend Reversal Confirmed
Once price breaks away from the peak formation, closing in breakdown, the trend shift is validated.
Customization & Settings
- Toggle individual candle types on/off
- Customize colors for each signal
- Set the number of historical candles displayed
Example Use Cases
1. Weekly Template Analysis
The weekly template is a core concept in Stacey Burke’s trading style. FO highlights individual candle states. With this the state of the trend and the developing weekly template can be evaluated precisely. The analysis is done on the daily timeframe and we are looking especially for overextended situations within a week, after multiple breakouts and for peak formations signalling potential reversals. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
📈 Example: Weekly Template Analysis snapshot on daily timeframe
2. High Timeframe 5-Star Setup Analysis (Stacey Burke "ain't coming back" ACB Template)
This analysis identifies high-probability trade opportunities when daily breakout or down closes occur near key monthly levels mid-week, signalling overextensions and potentially large parabolic moves. Key signals for this are breakout or down closes occurring on a Wednesday. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration. Also an indicator can bee seen on this chart shading every Wednesday to identify the signal.
📉 Example: High Timeframe Setup snapshot
3. Low Timeframe Entry Confirmation
FO helps confirm entry signals after a setup is identified, allowing traders to time their entries and exits more precisely. For this the highlighted Switch and/ or Fakeout bars can be highly valuable.

200 EMA Breakout & Retest Strategy200 EMA Breakout & Retest Strategy
This script is designed for traders who rely on the 200 EMA as a key indicator for trend direction and trade setups. The strategy identifies potential buy and sell opportunities based on breakouts and subsequent retests of the 200 EMA.
How It Works
EMA Breakout Detection:
The script monitors when the price crosses and closes above or below the 200 EMA.
No signal is generated immediately upon the breakout.
Retest Confirmation:
After the breakout, the price must retrace to touch the 200 EMA.
A valid signal occurs only when the price touches the EMA and the candle closes above (for buy) or below (for sell).
Trade Signal Generation:
Once the retest is confirmed:
A Buy Signal is generated if the price closes above the 200 EMA after the retest.
A Sell Signal is generated if the price closes below the 200 EMA after the retest.
The script calculates:
Stop Loss: Placed at the low of the candle for a buy signal and at the high of the candle for a sell signal.
Take Profit: Based on a customizable Risk-Reward Ratio (default is 1:2).
Visual Indicators:
The 200 EMA is plotted on the chart for reference.
Buy/Sell signals are displayed as labels on the chart.
Stop loss and take profit levels are drawn using dotted lines.
Customization Options
EMA Length: Adjustable (default is 200).
Risk-Reward Ratio: Customizable to suit different trading styles.
Who Is This For?
This strategy is ideal for traders who:
Prefer trading with the trend using EMA-based strategies.
Look for precise entry points with confirmation from retests.
Require automated calculation of risk-reward levels.

Half Cup [LuxAlgo]The Half Cup indicator detects and displays patterns with the shape of a Half Cup , initiating a channel. From this channel, breakouts are detected and highlighted with dots.
Users can control the shape of the Half Cup and the channel length through various settings.
Do note that the displayed half cups are displayed retrospectively, making them subject to backpainting.
🔶 USAGE
The idea behind the indicator is derived from the Cup & Handle pattern, which requires waiting for the pattern full completion.
Our Half Cup publication aims to find opportunities when the potential cup is only formed halfway.
In this example, a green dot shows the first breakout of the upper channel extremity. A few bars later, the price went under it, after which it returned above, triggering a second green dot. Both triggers were good opportunities in this case, and the price rose afterward.
The Half Cup pattern can be the start of a potential complete Cup & Handle (As in the example above, a complete Cup pattern (without the Handle ) is shown, manually drawn with dashed lines).
Every green/red dot, whether on a bullish or bearish pattern, points to a breakout respectively above/below the channel.
Besides drawing patterns and the corresponding breakouts, the Half Cup indicator can also provide insights into trends and potential opportunities in the long run.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Validation
Several criteria must be fulfilled before a visible pattern on the chart is drawn.
Calculations are done beforehand to know where the Half Cup pattern would be positioned.
The pattern's bottom and top edges are checked for the number of bars whose closing price is outside the half-cup area. When the number of breakouts above/below is equal to or lower than the user-defined settings ( Max % Breaks Top/Bottom ), the pattern is drawn together with a brighter-colored channel next to it.
Dots highlighting the channel's breakout can be drawn from that moment until the end of both channel lines.
🔹 Positioning
Users can adjust the following settings to fit their needs:
% Broadness: Moves the Top/Bottom line (bullish or bearish) diagonally upwards/downwards.
Vertical Shift: Shifts the entire pattern up/down.
Channel Length: Sets the line length of the channel.
Note that adjusting the position of the pattern will change the validation; the script will be rerun to check if patterns are still valid or if new patterns can be drawn. Some patterns may disappear, while new ones may appear.
Before adjusting the position, the user can set Max % Breaks Top/Bottom at 100%. When the positioning is set, Max % Breaks Top/Bottom can be set as desired.
🔹 Updated Drawings
The Half Cup pattern is always drawn retrospectively (that is it is subject to backpainting), the channel is drawn from the bar from where the pattern is detected. Every breakout of the channel will remain visible as dots.
When a new swing high/low is found while the previous swing low/high remains the same, the pattern is updated to minimize clutter. The dots of earlier drawings will remain visible (to ensure no repainting occurs), but the color becomes faded, as such bright dots are associated with patterns that are visible on the chart, while faded dots are from removed/updated patterns.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swing Length: Period used for the swing detection, with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels.
🔹 Validation
Max % Breaks Bottom: Allowed maximum amount of bars where the closing price is below the bottom of the Half Cup pattern against the total width of the pattern (bars).
Max % Breaks Top: Allowed maximum amount of bars where the closing price is above the top of the Half Cup pattern against the total width of the pattern (bars).
🔹 Positioning
% Broadness: Moves the Top/Bottom line (bullish or bearish) diagonally upwards/downwards.
Vertical Shift: Shifts the entire pattern up/down.
Channel Length: Sets the line length of the channel.
Forex Master Pattern Screener 2Overview
The Forex Master Pattern Screener 2 is based on the Master Pattern, which includes contraction, expansion, and trend phases. This indicator is designed to identify and visualize market volatility, market phases, multi-timeframe contractions, liquidity points, and pivot calculations. It provides a clear image of the market's expansion and contraction phases. It's based on an alternative form of technical analysis that reveals the psychological patterns of financial markets through three phases.
Unlike the other master pattern indicators that just use highs and lows and aren't as accurate for finding contractions, this one uses actual measures of volatility to find extremely low levels of volatility and has customizable parameters depending on what you want to do.
What is the Forex Master Pattern?
The Forex Master Pattern is a framework that revolves around understanding market cycles, comprising the three main phases: contraction, expansion, and trend.
Contraction Phase: During this phase, the market has low volatility and is consolidating within a narrow range. Institutional volume tends to be low, and it's suggested to avoid trade entries during this period.
Expansion Phase: Volatility starts to increase, and there start to be bigger moves in price. Institutional traders start accumulating positions in this phase, and they might manipulate prices to draw in retail traders, creating liquidity for their own buying or selling goals.
Trend Phase: This final phase completes the market cycle. Institutional traders begin taking profits, leading to a reversal. This triggers panic among retail traders, resulting in liquidations and stops. This generates liquidity for institutional traders to profit, leaving retail traders with overvalued positions.
Value Line:
The "value line" acts as the fair value zone or the neutral belief zone where buyers and sellers agree on fair value. It can be likened to the center of gravity and is created during contraction zones.
Applications:
Identifying these phases and understanding the value lines can help traders determine the market's general direction and make better trading decisions.
This isn't a strategy but a concept explaining market behavior, allowing traders to develop various strategies based on these principles
The contractions, which are based on volatility calculations, can help you find out when big moves will occur, known as expansions.
How traders can use this indicator
1. Identifying Market Phases:
Contraction Phase: Look for periods where the market has low volatility and is contracting, indicated by a narrow range and highlighted by the contraction box. During this phase, traders prepare for a breakout but usually avoid making new trades until a clearer trend emerges.
Expansion Phase: When the indicator signals an expansion, it suggests that the market is moving out of consolidation and may be beginning a new trend. Traders might look for entry points here, anticipating a continuation of the trend.
Trend Phase: As the market enters this phase, traders look for signs of sustained movement in one direction and consider positions that benefit from this trend.
2. Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
By looking at multiple timeframes, traders can get a broader view of the market. For instance, a contraction phase in a shorter timeframe within an expansion phase in a longer timeframe might suggest a pullback in an overall uptrend. This indicator comes with a MTF contraction screener that is customizable.
2. Fair Value Lines:
The fair value acts like a "center of gravity.". Traders could use this as a reference point for understanding market sentiment and potential reversal points. This indicator shows these values in the middle of the contraction boxes.
3. Volatility Analysis:
This indicator's volatility settings can help traders understand the market's current volatility state. High volatility indicates a more active market with larger, faster moves, while low volatility might suggest caution and tighter stop-losses or take-profits. If volatility is contracting, then an expansion is imminent. This indicator shows the volatility with percentile ranks in 0-100 values and also alerts you when volatility is contracting, aka the contraction phase.
Volatility Calculations:
This indicator uses a geometric standard deviation to measure volatility based on historical price data. This metric quantifies the variability of price changes over a specified lookback period and then computes a percentile rank within a defined sample period. This percentile calculation helps evaluate the current volatility compared to historical levels.
Based on the percentile rank, the indicator sets thresholds to determine whether the current volatility is within a range considered "contraction" or not. For example, if there are really low levels of volatility on the percentile rank, then there is currently a contraction phase. The indicator also compares the volatility value against a moving average, where values above the current moving average value signal the expansion phase.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis (MTF):
This indicator comes with a multi-timeframe table that shows contractions for 5 different timeframes, and the table is customizable.
Bands:
This indicator comes with bands that are constructed based on the statistical calculations of the standard deviation applied to the log-transformed closing prices. It is commonly assumed that the distribution of prices fits some type of right-skewed distribution. To remove most of the skewness, you can use a log transformation , which makes the distribution more symmetrical and easier to analyze, thus the use of these bands . These bands are in the 2 standard deviation range. You can use these bands to trade at extreme levels. The band parameter is based on the contraction volatility lookback, which is in the Volatility Model Settings tab.
Ways the bands could be used with the contractions:
1. Identifying Breakout trades:
Contraction Zones: These zones indicate periods of low volatility where the market is consolidating. There are usually narrow price ranges, which are considered a build-up phase before a significant price move in any direction.
Bands: When the contraction zone occurs, you might notice the bands tightening around the price on smaller lookback periods, reflecting the decreased volatility. A continuous widening of the bands could then signal the beginning of an expansion phase, indicating a potential breakout opportunity.
2. Enhancing Trade Timing:
Before the Breakout: During the contraction phase, the bands might move closer together, reflecting the lower volatility. You can monitor this phase closely and prepare for a potential expansion. The bands can provide additional confirmation; for instance, a price move toward one of the bands might show an extreme occurrence and might show what the direction of the breakout could be.
After the breakout: Once the price breaks out of the contraction zone and goes to the expansion phase, and if it coincides with the bands widening significantly, it could reinforce the strength and potential sustainability of the new trend, providing a clearer entry.
3. Price-touching bands during a contraction:
If the price repeatedly touches one of the bands during a contraction phase, it might suggest a buildup of pressure in that direction. For example, if the price is consistently touching the upper band even though the bands are narrow, it might suggest bullish pressure that could occur once the expansion phase begin.
4. Price at the band extreme levels during Expansion:
If the price is at the extreme levels of the bands once the expansion phase occurs, it might indicate unsustainable levels and a low probability of the price continuing beyond those levels. Potentially signaling that a reversal will occur. Some trades could use these extremes to place entries during the expansion phases.
Liquidity Levels:
This script comes with liquidity points, whose functionality goes towards identifying pivotal levels in price action, focusing on swing highs and swing lows in the market. These points represent areas where significant buying (for swing lows) or selling (for swing highs) activity has occurred, implying potential levels or resistance in the price movement.
These liquidity points, often identified as highs and lows, are points where market participants have shown interest in the past. These levels can act as psychological indications where traders might place orders, leading to increased trading activity when these levels are approached or breached. When used with the Forex Master Pattern phases, liquidity levels can enhance trades placed with this indicator. For instance, if the market is expanding and approaches a significant liquidity level, there might be a higher chance of a breakout or reversal, showing a possible entry or exit point.
Liquidity Levels in the Contraction Phase:
Accumulation and Distribution: During the contraction phase, liquidity levels can indicate where huge positions are likely accumulating or distributing quietly. If price is near a known liquidity level and in a contraction phase, it might suggest that a large market player is building a position in anticipation of the next move.
Breakout Points: Liquidity levels can also give clues about where price could go after the breakout from the contraction phase. A break above a liquidity level might indicate a strong move to come as the market overcomes significant selling pressure.
Liquidity Levels in Expansion Phase:
Direct Confirmation: As the expansion phase begins, breaking through liquidity levels can confirm the new trend's direction. If the price moves past these levels with huge volume, it might indicate that the market has enough momentum to continue the trend.
Target Areas: Liquidity levels can act as target areas during the expansion phase. Traders using this indicator could look to take profits if the price approaches these levels, possibly expecting a reaction from the market.
Targets For Overlay Indicators [LuxAlgo]The Targets For Overlay Indicators is a useful utility tool able to display targets during crossings made between the price and external indicators on the user chart. Users can display a series of two targets, one for crossover events and another one for crossunder event.
Alerts are included for the occurrence of a new target as well as for reached targets.
🔶 USAGE
In order for targets to be displayed users need to select an appropriate input source from the "Source" drop-down input setting. In the example above we apply the indicator to a volatility stop.
This can also easily be done by adding the "Targets For Overlay Indicators" script on the VStop indicator directly.
Targets can help users determine the price limit where the price might start deviating from an indication given by one or multiple indicators. In the context of trading, targets can help secure profits/reduce losses of a trade, as such this tool can be useful to evaluate/determine user take profits/stop losses.
Due to these essentially being horizontal levels, they can also serve as potential support/resistances, with breakouts potentially confirming new trends.
Users might be interested in obtaining new targets once one is reached, this can be done by enabling "New Target When Reached" in the target logic setting section, resulting in more frequent targets.
Lastly, users can restrict new target creation until current ones are reached. This can result in fewer and longer-term targets, with a higher reach rate.
🔹 Examples
The indicator can be applied to many overlay indicators that naturally produce crosses with the price, such as moving average, trailing stops, bands...etc.
Users can use trailing stops such as the SuperTrend or VStop to more easily create clean targets. Do note that certain SuperTrend scripts separate the upper and lower extremities of the SuperTrend into two different plot, which cannot be used with this tool, you may use the provided SuperTrend script below to have a compatible version with our tool:
//@version=5
indicator("SuperTrend", overlay = true)
factor = input.float(3, 'Factor', minval = 0)
atrLen = input.int(10, 'ATR Length', minval = 1)
= ta.supertrend(factor, atrLen)
plot(spt, 'SuperTrend', dir != dir ? na : dir < 0 ? #089981 : #f23645, 2)
plot(spt, 'Circles', dir > dir ? #f23645 : dir < dir ? #089981 : na, 3, plot.style_circles)
Using moving averages can produce more targets than other overlay indicators.
Users can apply the tool twice when using bands or any overlay indicator returning two outputs, using crossover targets for obtaining targets using the upper band as source and crossunder targets for targets using the lower band. We can also use the Trendlines with breaks indicator as example:
🔹 Dashboard
A dashboard is displayed on the top right of the chart, displaying the amount, reach rate of targets 1/2, and total amount.
This dashboard can be useful to evaluate the selected target distances relative to the selected conditions, with a higher reach rate suggesting the distance of the targets from the price allows them to be reached.
🔶 SETTINGS
Source: Indicator source used to create targets. Targets are created when the closing price crosses the specified source.
Show Target Labels: Display target labels on the chart.
Candle Coloring: Apply candle coloring based on the most recent active target.
🔹 Target
Crossover and Crossunder targets use the same settings below:
Show Target: Determines if the target is displayed or not.
Above Price Target: If selected, will create targets above the closing price.
Wait Until Reached: When enabled will not create a new target until an existing one is reached.
New Target When Reached: Will create a new target when an existing one is reached.
Evaluate Wicks: Will use high/low prices to determine if a target is reached. Unselecting this setting will use the closing price.
Target Distance From Price: Controls the distance of a target from the price. Can be determined in currencies/points, percentages, ATR multiples, or ticks.
Opening Range & Prior Day High/Low [Gorb]Introduction:
Opening Range & Prior Day High/Low indicator is an easy to use day traders tool. This indicator automatically plots the previous days high and low, as well as drawing a box from the opening range that the user specifies in the settings. These two together can help provide an indication of market sentiment and price trends for the day. They are often used as a trading strategy for day traders.
Overview:
The Opening Range , draws a box from the high to the low of the user defined time period and is extended until the end of the trading session. Most common are the 5/15/30min opening ranges.
Prior Day High/Low , draws lines from the previous days high and low that extend across the current session. These are used as support/resistance and also a marker to see market sentiment by crossing one of these levels.
The indicator is designed for all kinds of traders, offering a simple approach to automatically plot levels for you.
Features:
All skill-level friendly presets, easy to enable with one-click
Opening Range: Allows user to choose what time the range starts and ends to measure the high & low.
Extend Range Lines: allows the user to choose when the box stops extending according to the trading session time.
Enable Opening Range Box: allows the user to choose to plot the opening range or not.
ORB Border Color: allows the user to change the box border color.
ORB Box Shade Color: allows the user to change the background of the opening range box.
ORB Line Width: allows users to chose the width of the opening range box lines.
Enable Previous Day High: allows users to enable the previous days high to be plotted.
Enable Previous Day Low: allows users to enable the previous days high to be plotted.
Previous Day High Color: allows users to choose the color for this line.
Previous Day Low Color: allows users to choose the color for this line.
All colors are changeable for the user to customize to their liking.
Usage Demonstration
In the image below, we can see a basic example of how these 3 features function.
As explained above, the opening range is customizable to meet the users needs and can be disabled with one click. Same goes for the prior day high(green) and low(red) lines. All 3 are plotted each day automatically for the user if enabled.
In the image below, we can see an example of using the opening range break and prior day high together for a trading strategy.
This is a great example of using the prior day high with the opening range to use as a day trading strategy. It provides the trader with levels to watch for price to break out from for possible trade setups.
In this next image, we can see a failed breakdown from the opening range that results in a bullish breakout.
The first move was a fake breakdown with the failed rejection on the retest of the opening range lows. This led to a breakout above the range and a confirmation bounce on the breakout retest. Price did break above the prior day high and confirmed with a retest bounce on that level as well.
In the image below, we can see how previous days levels can act as resistance to use with the opening range.
Price didn't reject the opening range low, but it did reject the prior day high for the second time. This could be used as an entry or once price breaks down out of the opening range again.
Conclusion:
We believe in providing user-friendly tools to help speed up traders technical analysis and implement easy trading strategies. The goal is to provide a user-friendly indicator to automatically draw opening ranges and previous days levels to suit the users needs and trading style.

Bjorgum Key Levels
Key Levels Aims to capture 3 of the most significant points in price action
Breakouts
False Breakouts (Traps)
Back Checks
These 3 points alone, if properly identified, can be some of the most significant points of movement in the price history of an asset and bring significant gains to traders, if capitalized on. Here are a few examples of these setups
Breakouts
Breakouts can bring significant rallies as the market swings one sided after key levels are breached. This entry type can bring large trending runs to follow. Momentum is on your side, but the trade off is a higher entry.
False Breakouts
Also known as a bull trap or a bear trap, false breaks can lead to swift and significant reversals and potential for a large and sudden move to the opposite side. When a key level breakout fails to hold, parties entering to capitalize on the "epic breakout" can get left holding the bag forcing them to exit at a loss, which can double the force of pressure. Traps can bring swift gains from good entry prices. However, price is still in a larger trend against you so momentum is weak, so price action is susceptible to roll over.
Backchecks
Back checks are pull backs in trend that find middle ground to the 2 areas already described. Both momentum and entry price are decent, but risk is defined as a key level has flipped offering entry with stops below demand, or above supply.
Combining these 3 methods helps to diversify risk, understand trend development, and bring steady gains. This script helps to identify these points to traders with analysis of key levels, price structure, and trend direction, while providing visual signals and alerts for when they occur.

Darvas BoxesExcerpt from TraderHQ: "Darvas Box is a great technical analysis indicator, with an interesting background and creator. Nicholas Darvas, a dancer by trade, made $2,000,000 in an 18-month period trading stocks using the Darvas Box method, while traveling the world on dance tours. The method is designed to capture emerging trends, and ride them for big potential profit, all while keeping risk contained."
Excerpt from Investopedia:
DEFINITION of 'Darvas Box Theory'
Darvas box theory is a trading strategy that was developed in 1956 by former ballroom dancer Nicolas Darvas. Darvas' trading technique involves buying into stocks that are trading at new highs. A Darvas box is created when the price of a stock rises above the previous high but falls back to a price not far from that high.
BREAKING DOWN 'Darvas Box Theory'
The Darvas box theory is essentially a momentum strategy. It uses market momentum theory and technical analysis to determine when to enter and exit the market, and it uses fundamental analysis to determine what to buy or sell. If the price breaks out of the box, it is a sign of a breakout. In this way, the Darvas box helps traders determine what price to enter and exit the market.
In 1956, Darvas turned an investment of $10,000 into $2 million over an 18-month period using this theory. While traveling as a dancer, Darvas obtained copies of The Wall Street Journal and Barron's, but he would only look at the stock prices to make his decisions. It has been said that Darvas was less happy about the profits that he made than he was about the ease and peace of mind that he got from implementing his system. Skeptics of Darvas' technique attribute his success to the fact that he was trading in a very bullish market. They also say that his results can't be attained if this technique is used in a bear market.
The Philosophy: What to Buy
The main idea behind Darvas' trading philosophy is to focus on growth industries. These are industries that are expected to outperform the market. Darvas selected a few stocks from these industries and monitored their prices every day. He looked for signs that the stock was ready to make a strong move. The main indicator he used to look for these signs was volume. A significant increase in volume increased the likelihood of a big move. Darvas looked for unusual volume on a handful of companies in industries he expected to grow.
The Trading Strategy: When to Enter and Exit
Once Darvas noticed unusual volume, he created a Darvas box with a narrow price range. The stock's low for the time period presents the floor of the box. The stock's high for the time period represents the ceiling of the box. When the stock breaks through the ceiling of the box, the trader is supposed to buy the stock. Likewise, when the stock goes below the floor of the Darvas box, it is time to sell."
