NCTA Trend BiasTrend Bias
The NCTA Trend Bias indicator is designed to show traders the overall directional bias of the market. It is excellent in short 1, 3, and 5 minute timeframes for futures traders and short term options traders. Longer timeframes such as the 5, 10, and 30 minute timeframes work well for options traders.
This indicator is used by displaying it twice on the chart. For 1, 3, and 5 minute charts, one of the Trend Bias indicators is set at Fast and the other is set at Medium.
For 30 min or higher charts, one Trend Bias Indicator is set at Medium and the other one is set at Slow.
The indicator consists of three trend lines; a fast signal, a medium signal, and a slow signal. There is a possible trade entry when the fast signal crosses either the medium and/or slow signals.
HOW TO USE: The most effective way to use this indicator is to have it displayed twice, using the settings described above for the relevant chart timeframe.
When both indicators show the fast line (blue line) crossing above the medium (red) or the slow (green) line, it implies an opportunity to go long or buy a call. When both indicators show the fast line crossing below the medium and/or slow line, it implies an opportunity to go short or buy a put.
The Trend Bias Indicator also provides a powerful directional bias entry when used in alignment with the Awesome Oscillator. Green AO aligned with a long Trend Bias entry or red AO aligned with a short Trend Bias entry.

Percent Ladder Scalp Helper [BVCC]This is a simple proof of concept model for a tool that allows you to overlay a percent reference anchored on a specific price point. It projects a ladder of horizontal lines at percent levels 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, and 5%. It will then begin filling in target zones when price closes above these targets. Above 5% all fills will be lime green, below entry, fill will be yellow as a warning and below SL, red to remind you GTFO of the trade.
this tool is intended for use in quick trade setups where the trader is looking to scalp for small percentages and will help save time in determining % based targets. The colored alarms are a bit fancy but simply serve as a graphical feedback system that can perhaps be developed into something more useful in the future.
User may input entry price and preferred SL in the format dialogue.
If 'auto calculate sat value' is checked, then the user can enter whole numbers for their entry. For instance if your entry is at .00000585 sats, you can just enter 585. If you are working with something besides btc or prefer to enter full sat input, simply uncheck this option.
(JS) Bollinger Bands Momentum AverageSo this is something I've been using with my Squeeze system that I have found very useful (great addition especially if you use the Squeeze Arrows).
First thing I'd like to point out is that the default setting (20 SMA) is also the default for the Bollinger Bands basis line, so I recommend using the line set at the default.
First thing you'll notice is that whichever side of the line the candles close on, that basically determines the direction of the arrow for the Squeeze Arrows.
So this is extremely helpful in case momentum shifts after an arrow signal is given, if you see the price shoot to the other side of the line you can use that as a means of protection.
Second, the line is color coded in a way that I hope helps with entries and exits.
The colors of the line change based on two things:
1. If there is currently a squeeze.
2. Are the Bollinger Bands expanding or contracting.
Generally speaking, when the bands are contracting (light green and light orange default colors) this is the ideal time for entry before a trending move occurs.
Same thing on the flip side when they're expanding (dark green and dark orange default colors), that's usually the better time to exit.
Now what's the difference between orange and green?
Green = There's an ongoing squeeze
Orange = There's currently no squeeze
So playing the side of momentum when the line is light green and starts to break in a certain direction would be the ideal entry.
And, if momentum changes from that point, you can always use a close on the opposite side of the line as a stop (or an entry the other way).
This is something else I've been using on my own for a little while prior to publishing and it has been a tremendous tool for me. Hope it helps you all as much as it has me!
DeltaCapital Combined SignalsThis all-in-one indicator is a powerful trading system that merges two distinct but complementary methodologies: advanced ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts and a versatile 3-in-1 signal system. The goal is to provide a comprehensive view of market structure, liquidity, and momentum, allowing traders to identify high-probability setups with greater confidence.
The script is designed to be fully customizable, enabling you to tailor the visual elements and parameters to fit your specific trading style.
Core Components & How They Work
The indicator is built on two main pillars:
1. ICT Concepts: Identifying Key Price Zones
This part of the indicator automatically identifies and plots crucial areas of price imbalance and liquidity, which often act as magnets for future price action.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) & BPR:
FVG (Fair Value Gap): A three-candle pattern that indicates a significant price inefficiency or imbalance. Bullish FVGs (green boxes) are areas where buying pressure was strong, and Bearish FVGs (red boxes) show where selling pressure dominated. Price will often seek to return to these zones to "rebalance."
BPR (Balanced Price Range): A more complex pattern where a bullish and bearish FVG overlap, creating a highly contested zone of equilibrium. These are powerful areas of support and resistance.
Volume Imbalance (VI): Detects gaps between the open and close of consecutive candles, highlighting areas where volume was heavily one-sided. These zones signal aggressive market participation and can act as short-term support or resistance.
Price Gaps: Marks traditional weekend or session gaps where no trading occurred. These are significant levels that the market often aims to fill.
Mitigation Logic: All ICT boxes are dynamic. They will extend into the future until price mitigates them. You can choose the mitigation criteria:
Engulf: The box is considered filled once a candle closes past its boundary.
Mitigate/C.E.: The box is considered filled once price simply touches it (for FVGs/VIs) or reaches its 50% "Consequent Encroachment" level (for Gaps).
Rebalance: A more advanced FVG mitigation that partially fills the box as price moves through it.
2. 3-in-1 Signal System: Trend & Momentum
This system provides clear entry signals based on a confluence of trend, higher-timeframe context, and volume analysis.
EMA Clouds: The script plots multiple EMA clouds that serve as dynamic support and resistance zones. A green cloud indicates a bullish trend, while a red/maroon cloud signals a bearish trend. The primary signal is the EMA Cross, marked by a triangle, which occurs when the short-term EMA crosses over the long-term EMA.
HTF (Higher Timeframe) Volume Analysis: This unique feature looks at the volume delta (buying vs. selling volume) on a higher timeframe of your choice (e.g., 1-hour chart while you are on a 5-minute chart).
It provides a broader context for the market trend. A bullish HTF signal suggests that the larger trend aligns with your potential entry.
The HTF Combined Signal (labeled "HTF") appears only when an EMA Cross occurs while the HTF volume is also in agreement, providing a high-conviction signal.
The chart background will also change color (green for bull, red for bear) to reflect the HTF trend.
Volume Delta Signals: This component analyzes the relative strength of buying vs. selling pressure on your current timeframe. A diamond shape appears when a significant surge in volume delta occurs, confirming strong momentum in the direction of the trend.
How to Use This Indicator
Identify Key Zones: Use the FVG, BPR, and Gap boxes to map out important support and resistance levels where you expect a market reaction.
Determine the Trend: Use the EMA clouds and the HTF background color to understand the current trend direction. Trading in the direction of the trend generally yields better results.
Look for Confluence: The most powerful signals occur when multiple components align. For example, a bullish EMA Cross signal (triangle) that appears at the bottom of a Bullish FVG box, while the HTF background is green, is a high-probability long setup.
Confirm with Momentum: Use the Volume Delta signal (diamond) as a final confirmation that strong momentum is entering the market to support your trade.
Customize: Adjust the EMA lengths, HTF settings, and colors in the indicator settings to match your preferred trading instruments and timeframes.
TrendMaster PremiumTrendMaster
TrendMaster is a complete trend following system with strict entry, exit and trade management criteria. The indicator is optimised for weekly, daily and 4-hour candlesticks and can be used for all trending markets. It was developed primarily for less experienced traders that struggle to determine relevant information from irrelevant information when viewing a candlestick chart. The indicator was built to solve the problem that all new traders face.
Setting Up The Indicator
After purchase, open the TradingView indicator library. Under the Invite-Only Scripts section, you will see TrendMaster. Add it to your chart. Next, you must customise your theme settings to allow TrendMaster to take over control of your candle colours. You can find a complete set-up tutorial on our website.
The Cloud
The indicator includes a moving average cloud which serves as a visual guide to local support and resistance. For a signal candle to print, price must trade above the moving average cloud and above the medium-term trend. By requiring multiple criteria we drastically reduce false entries. When price exits the cloud to the upside it typically trends above and finds support at the cloud during retracements.
Candle Colours
By default, TrendMaster will colour your candles in black and white. White candles indicate an uptrend in an asset and the candles will not change colour until the trend has reversed and a counter-trend signal has been printed. Black candles indicate a downtrend, they will remain black until a counter-trend long signal candle has been printed.
Signal candles
A signal candle is printed when the price of an asset closes above or below the moving average cloud and the medium term trend moving average. By requiring two criteria for a single candle to print we will see a drastic reduction in the number of false signals.
The TrendMaster entry technique further reduces the likelihood of false entries. To enter a trade we do not buy the signal candle immediately. Instead, we treat the signal candle as an indication that a trend change is possible. We want to see confirmation of this trend before making an entry. To enter we place a pending order a few ticks above or below the high or low of the signal candle. By doing this we only enter a trade when the asset has shown a continuation in the direction of the suggested trend change.
Once a trade has been taken we remain in that trade until either we have been stopped out on the break of a Williams fractal or the trend has reversed by printing an opposite to trend signal candle. It is important that we remain with the trend to ensure that we capture the maximum opportunity available.

SpiralSwinger ETHThis is the same swinger script based on multi-exchange algo of Godmode oscillator i made for BTC trading only. It's custom tweaked to be used for trading ETH/USD pair and ETH perpetual swaps on Bitmex. It doesn't work correctly on ETH/BTC pairs. Same rules apply for entry: after signal you enter position with half of the risk to be sure you are in a trade, then wait for pullback to average entry with other half of the risk. SL should be set to longest wick before signal. Trade should be managed on the same TF you received signal - take profit points and stop loss trailing are taken from current TF. In case you receive same signal for a same price region on higher TF but you are already in a position then switch managing of the trade to higher TF. Example: you recieved a short on 4H, then after a couple of hours you get another short but this time on 8H - switch to 8H chart and manage take profits and SL according to 8H. Best TF for using it is 4H, 6H, 8H, 12H. More documentation and FAQ to be shared later.

The Sim-Wave-DNA consist of 3 parts.
Volume
Money Flow
Advisor
Volumen bars > 0 show the Normalized Volume where the volume exceeding the pink line (exceeding the average of vol) is plotted in solide color
Money Flow bars < 0 show the amount of capital flowing in and out of the market, red is negative and green positive moneyflow.
The advisory (arrows) shows areas of caution, this are likely reversal areas.
Happy Trading
Shadow MACDThis Script is basically made by looking this video (watch it for more informations)
-> www.youtube.com
For me MACD is one of the best indicators out there so with a faster macd it can help me find my entrys easier in the market
So i added the 4C MACD ( by vkno422) with a histogram MACD
Those are the best settings that i found for this strategy. if you find better just let me know ;)
VFilterAlthough this script is inspired by the design of Elder Impulse script created by LazyBear, the engine is not the same.
The goal of this indicator is to filter price movement, establish direction, and manage risk. This indicator is not be used on its own, its only to be used to help establish entrys and exits.
The signals are created using a privately developed moving average on multiple time frames.
HOW TO
15, 60, 120, or 240 min chart
Green = Buy signal
Red = Sell signal
Blue = Bullish consolidation, or an aggressive/riskier buy signal
Yellow = Bearish consolidation. or an aggressive/riskier sell signal
Adjustment value is high due to the nature of the moving averages. Try using 400, 700, 900, or 950 for best results.
I suggest using this indicator with MACD and a levels indicator for price targets.
Looney's Forex Buy SignalsI created this Forex buy signal indicator to save myself some time when looking for buy opportunities. The signals are generated from a combination of several indicators such as the RSI, MACD, Wave Oscillator etc. I spent alot of time tweaking all the values to give me reliable signals. I trade one hour candles and generally get 50+ pips per signal.
If price goes down after the first signal and I get another signal, I buy again which means I get a average buy price (dollar cost average) and then sell when it reaches my profit level.
Alerts are built-in as well. The indicator does repaint at the moment so set the alert to "on candle close" to ensure that you get a valid signal. Longer timeframes works better and as mentioned I use 1 hour candle.
I will release the back-test of this indicator shortly where you can then enter your capital amount and set profit & stop loss levels to see how you would have performed based on historical data.
The current version is free and I will grant access on request.
Comments & suggestions welcome.
NG [Wave Period Oscillator]The WPO is a short-term oscillator that measures the buying and selling period of price cycles over a certain time interval.
The leading oscillator indicates a rise in buying period when it moves above the zero line and a rise in selling period when it moves below the zero line.
Trading Tactics
Center line Crossover: a bullish center line crossover occurs when the WPO line moves above the zero level to turn positive.
A bearish center line crossover occurs when the WPO line moves below the zero level to turn negative.
When bulls are in control, the price rally begins and the average of the bull’s period T increases to drive the WPO line above the center line.
A buy signal is subsequently triggered.
When the bulls start to loose power, prices move sideways and the average period decreases. In this case, the WPO line may fl utter near the center line and cause false signals, whipsaws.
To avoid the whipsaws occurring on the center line, the following trading tactics are proposed:
Uptrend Tactic:
During an ideal uptrend, the WPO does not reach the lower boundary -2 and usually rebounds from a higher level than -2.
This means that the bulls have taken control earlier. Hence, a zero line crossover generates a buy signal. The WPO crosses the upper boundary at +2 then pulls back again below +2 to generate a sell signal.
Sideways Tactic:
During sideways, the WPO fluctuates between the lower and upper boundaries -2 and 2. This tactic is also used in an uptrend where corrections are strong enough to drive the WPO line below the lower boundary.
Downtrend Tactic:
During downtrends, the WPO fails to reach the upper boundary and oscillates between the 0 and -2 levels. The bears enter early indicating an obvious weakness in the market. Therefore, crossing the zero level generates a sell signal.
Exit at Weakness:
During uptrend reversals and downtrends, the WPO oscillates between the center line and the lower boundary -2. The bears are controlling the market and move in wide cycle periods while the bull’s strength is almost absent.
An exit signal is triggered once the WPO crosses -2. When prices decline, the WPO may cross its extreme lower boundary at -2.7. Therefore, a swift exit signal is triggered once the WPO crosses -2.
Re-Entry:
During uptrend, the WPO crosses down the upper boundary level at +2 to generate a sell signal. Yet, it does not reach the zero line and the oscillator moves back toward the upper boundary.
This case is considered as strength while a re-entry signal occurs at the +2 level crossover. The sell signal is generated when the WPO line crosses down the upper boundary.
EurUsd Momentum Heiken AshiEURUSD Monthly and Weekly indicator that measures the slope between open and close.
***Works best on Heiken Ashi-as it smooths out the lines.
-In essence, it is the same thing as Heiken Ashi but gives a better visual for entry beside "the candle is red so I should sell"
-Method For Entry:
**Look for a Higher Low to --->buy at indicator >=0
**Look for Lower High to ----->sell at indicator <=0
**Look at Heiken Ashi candle with support and resistance zones
**Draw trend-lines such as channels, pennants, etc..
Daily ATR%If You are using a percentage of the Daily Average True Range in determining your stop placement,
this quick indicator is for You.
excerpt from investopedia.com/articles/trading/06/stopplacement.asp
ATR % Stop Method
The ATR% stop method can be used by any type of trader because the width of the stop is determined by the percentage of average true range (ATR). ATR is a measure of volatility over a specified period of time. The most common length is 14, which is also a common length for oscillators such as the relative strength index (RSI) and stochastics. A higher ATR indicates a more volatile market, while a lower ATR indicates a less volatile market. By using a certain percentage of ATR, you ensure that your stop is dynamic and changes appropriately with market conditions.
For example, for the first four months of 2006, the GBP/USD average daily range was around 110 to 140 pips. A day trader may want to use a 10% ATR stop - meaning that the stop is placed 10% x ATR pips from the entry price.In this instance, the stop would be anywhere from 11 to 14 pips from your entry price. A swing trader might use 50% or 100% of ATR as a stop. In May and June of 2006, daily ATR was anywhere from 150 to 180 pips. As such, the day trader with the 10% stop would have stops from entry of 15 to 18 pips while the swing trader with 50% stops would have stops of 75 to 90 pips from entry.

Innotrade Fractal ZonesInnotrade Fractal Zones: Dynamic Rejection & Retest Zones
1. Vision and Justification: Beyond Simple Dots on a Chart
Standard fractal indicators are useful, but they only provide a single data point—a lagging high or low. Innotrade Fractals transforms this concept into a dynamic and actionable trading tool. Instead of just plotting dots, it generates Fractal Zones, treating significant swing points as dynamic areas of supply and demand.
The true innovation of this script lies in its intelligent, dual-mode alert system, which is designed to capture two of the most powerful price action scenarios: Zone Rejections and Break-and-Retests.
This script is offered on an invite-only basis because it's a specialized tool with unique alert logic. This model allows us to provide dedicated support and continuous development to a focused group of serious traders.
2. Core Features & Underlying Concepts
A. Fractal-Based Supply & Demand Zones
The script identifies significant fractals based on a user-defined Fractal Period. It then creates a "zone" from the fractal's high/low to the open of that same candle.
Fractal High (FH) Zones (Red): These act as potential resistance or supply zones.
Fractal Low (FL) Zones (Green): These act as potential support or demand zones.
This method turns a simple pivot point into a tangible zone, giving you a more forgiving and realistic area to monitor for price reactions.
B. The Dual-Mode Alert System
This is the engine of the indicator, designed to provide timely and context-aware alerts.
Mode 1: Confirmation (Rejection) Alerts
How it works: This alert triggers when the price enters a Fractal Zone and then closes back outside of it.
Purpose: It signals that the zone has successfully held as support or resistance. For example, if price dips into a green "FL" zone and then closes back above it, the alert fires, confirming buying pressure. This helps you identify strong rejections at key levels.
Mode 2: Break-and-Retest (S/R Flip) Alerts
How it works: When price breaks decisively through a Fractal Zone, the script marks that level as "broken." It then watches for the price to return to that level from the opposite side.
Purpose: This captures the classic support-becomes-resistance (and vice versa) pattern. If a green "FL" zone is broken, it becomes potential resistance. The alert will trigger if the price later comes back up to retest it, signaling a potential short entry.
C. Swing Point Overlay
As a complementary feature, the script also plots standard pivot-based swing points (the small circles). This allows you to visualize the minor, more immediate market swings in relation to the more significant, zone-defining fractals.
3. How to Use the Indicator & Set Alerts
This tool is designed for traders who use price action to find entries at key support and resistance levels.
Trading Strategies:
Rejection Trading:
Identify an established trend.
During a pullback, wait for the price to enter a corresponding Fractal Zone (e.g., a green FL zone in an uptrend).
Set a "Confirmation" alert. When it triggers, it provides a high-probability signal that the level has held and the trend may resume.
Breakout & Retest (S/R Flip) Trading:
Wait for price to break cleanly through a significant zone.
Set a "Retest" alert. When the price returns to test the broken zone, the alert will fire, offering a potential entry in the direction of the breakout.
Setting Up Your Alerts:
The script uses the alert() function, so you can customize messages and trigger conditions directly.
Open the "Alerts" panel in TradingView.
Select "Innotrade Fractals" as the Condition.
The script will generate specific alert messages based on the event (e.g., "Confirmation FL - LONG" or "Retest of broken FH - LONG").
Set the frequency to "Once Per Bar" or "Once Per Bar Close" for best results.
4. Our Commitment and Originality
While based on the classic concept of fractals, Innotrade Fractals offers a unique and original approach by converting them into dynamic zones and, most importantly, by providing a sophisticated alert system that identifies actionable Rejection and Retest scenarios automatically. This advanced logic is what makes the script a valuable tool requiring dedicated user support.

Key Session LevelsKey Session Levels - Indicator Guide
Created by: MecarderoAurum
Why This Indicator Exists: An Overview
The "Key Session Levels" indicator is a comprehensive tool for day traders that automatically plots the most critical price levels from the current premarket and the previous two full trading days. These levels are watched by countless traders and often act as significant areas of support and resistance.
This indicator provides a clear, objective map of these key zones, helping traders anticipate potential turning points, identify areas of confluence, and make more informed trading decisions without having to manually draw and manage these lines every day.
Features & How to Use Them
This indicator plots several types of important historical levels on your chart. Each one is fully customizable.
1. Premarket Levels (PMH / PML)
What they are: The highest (PMH) and lowest (PML) prices reached during the current day's premarket session (04:00 - 09:30 ET).
Why they matter: The premarket high and low are the first significant levels established for the trading day. They often act as initial support or resistance once the market opens.
How to use them: In the settings under "Premarket Levels," you can toggle the visibility of the PMH and PML, and customize their color, line style, and width.
2. Prior Day Levels (PDH / PDL / PDM / PDP)
What they are: The key price points from the previous full trading day.
PDH: Prior Day High
PDL: Prior Day Low
PDM: Prior Day Midpoint (the exact middle of the PDH and PDL)
PDP: Prior Day Pivot (a classic pivot point calculation)
Why they matter: These are often the most important levels for the current trading day. The market frequently tests the previous day's high and low.
How to use them: Under the "Prior Day" settings, you can enable or disable each of these four levels and customize their appearance.
3. 2-Day Prior Levels (PDH2 / PDL2 / etc.)
What they are: The same set of key levels (High, Low, Mid, Pivot) from two trading days ago.
Why they matter: These levels can still be highly relevant, especially if the market is trading within a multi-day range or returning to test a significant prior level.
How to use them: Under the "2-Day Prior" settings, you can customize the visibility and style of these levels. They are styled with more transparency by default to distinguish them from the more recent prior day's levels.
4. General Settings
Days of History: This setting allows you to control how many past days of historical lines are kept on your chart. This is excellent for back-testing strategies and seeing how price has reacted to these levels in the past.
Label Settings: You can customize the color and size of the on-chart labels (e.g., "PDH," "PML") for better visibility.
Sample Strategy: The Key Level Rejection
This strategy focuses on using the indicator's levels to identify potential reversals at key areas of support or resistance.
Identify a Key Level: Watch as the price approaches a significant level plotted by the indicator, such as the Prior Day High (PDH) or the Premarket Low (PML).
Look for Rejection: Do not trade simply because the price touches the level. Wait for a price action signal that confirms the level is holding. This could be a bearish engulfing candle or a shooting star pattern at a resistance level like PDH, or a bullish hammer or morning star pattern at a support level like PML.
Entry: Once you see a clear rejection candle, enter a trade in the direction of the rejection. For a bearish rejection at the PDH, you would enter a short position.
Stop-Loss: A logical place for a stop-loss is just above the high of the rejection candle (for a short trade) or just below the low of the rejection candle (for a long trade). This defines your risk clearly.
Profit Target: Your first profit target could be the next key level plotted by the indicator. For example, if you shorted a rejection at the PDH, your first target might be the Premarket High (PMH) or the day's opening price.
Zone Shift [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
Zone Shift is a dynamic trend detection tool that uses EMA/HMA-based bands to determine trend shifts and plot key reaction levels. It highlights trend direction through colored candles and marks important retests with visual cues to help traders stay aligned with momentum.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Dynamic EMA-HMA Band:
Creates a three-line channel using the average of an EMA and HMA for the midline, and expands it using average candle range to form upper and lower bounds. This band visually adapts to market volatility.
float ema = ta.ema(close, length)
float hma = ta.hma(close, length-40)
float dist = ta.sma(high-low, 200)
float mid = math.avg(ema, hma)
float top = mid + dist
float bot = mid - dist
Trend Detection (Band Cross Logic):
Detects an uptrend when the Low crosses above the top band.
Detects a downtrend when the High crosses below the bottom band.
Bars change color to lime for uptrends and blue for downtrends.
Trend Initiation Level:
At the start of a new trend, the indicator locks in the extreme point (low for uptrend, high for downtrend) and plots a dashed horizontal level, serving as a potential retest zone.
Trend Retest Signal:
If price crosses back over the Trend Initiation level in the direction of the trend, a diamond label (⯁) is plotted at the retest point — confirming that price is revisiting a key shift level.
Visual Band Layout:
Midline: Dashed line shows the average of EMA and HMA.
Top/Bottom: Solid lines showing dynamic thresholds above/below the midline.
These help visualize compression, expansion, and possible breakout zones.
Color-Based Candle Plotting:
Candles are recolored in real time according to the current trend, allowing instant visual alignment with the market’s directional bias.
Noise-Filtered Retests:
To avoid repetitive signals, retests are only marked if they occur more than 5 bars after the previous one — filtering out minor fluctuations.
⯁ USAGE
Use colored candles to align trades with the dominant trend.
Treat dashed trendStart levels as important support/resistance zones.
Watch for ⯁ diamond labels as confirmation of retests for continuation or entry.
Use band boundaries to assess trend strength and volatility expansion.
Combine with your existing setups to validate momentum and zone shifts.
⯁ CONCLUSION
Zone Shift helps traders visually capture trend changes and key reaction points with precision. By combining band breakouts with real-time retest signals and trend-colored candles, this tool simplifies the process of reading market structure shifts and identifying high-confluence entry areas.
[TehThomas] - ICT Rejection BlocksWhat Are Rejection Blocks?
Rejection Blocks are price zones formed when a candle attempts to push through a level, gets rejected with force, and then closes in the opposite direction. This price action creates a “block” that reflects clear intent from smart money participants. These blocks are typically marked by a large wick that fails to close beyond a key high or low, followed by a body that closes back inside the previous range. The zone around the candle body becomes a footprint of where buyers or sellers aggressively stepped in, often defending that level with size.
Why Rejection Blocks Matter to Smart Money Traders
In any smart money model, understanding where large players are active is key. Rejection Blocks highlight exactly that. These zones often sit just above inducement highs or below engineered lows, where liquidity was taken before displacement occurred. By identifying where price got rejected with conviction, traders can spot the origin of institutional interest. These levels often act as magnets for retracement and can provide high-probability entries when price trades back into them. The best part is they often line up with other SMT elements like Fair Value Gaps, Breaker Blocks, or market structure shifts, allowing for strong confluence-based setups.
How the Indicator Works and Why It’s Effective
This script is designed to do one thing exceptionally well, automatically detect and display clean, high-quality rejection blocks. It filters out noise and only marks candles that meet strict rejection criteria. That means long wicks showing failed pushes, and bodies that close convincingly in the opposite direction. The indicator then draws a box over the candle body to mark the rejection zone. These boxes help map out areas where price is likely to react or stall in the future. By automating this process, the indicator saves time, improves consistency, and removes guesswork. You no longer have to manually scan charts or second-guess if a level is valid, the tool handles it for you.
What This Adds to Your Trading Workflow
This tool fits perfectly into any smart money strategy built around liquidity, displacement, and market structure. It helps you focus on the most meaningful zones, especially when price sweeps a high or low and leaves behind a reversal. Whether you trade breakouts, reversals, or liquidity setups, Rejection Blocks give you a visual confirmation of where price got turned away. They act as future entry zones, rejection points, or even stop placement areas. You can pair them with your Fair Value Gap entries, or use them to validate the direction of a shift in structure. This is the type of tool that simplifies your chart without losing precision.
Optimized for Focus and Clarity
There’s no clutter, no overload of options, and no distractions. Just clean, focused rejection zones that update in real-time. The boxes stay until invalidated, giving you a static map of relevant zones without recalculating on every bar. This makes it ideal for traders who want to plan entries, set alerts, or manage risk without redrawing levels every session. Whether you scalp on the 5M or swing trade using the 4H, this tool helps lock in the zones where price already told you something important, rejection with force.
Conclusion
The Rejection Blocks indicator is for traders who want cleaner charts, smarter levels, and more conviction behind every entry. It isolates zones where price showed clear rejection and turns them into actionable blocks that fit seamlessly into any smart money strategy. If you rely on liquidity sweeps, displacement, and reaction-based entries, this tool brings clarity and consistency to your edge. Just turn it on and let it show you where real rejection occurred.
Example of how to use it
TX EM Levels - Multi-Timeframe Risk CalculatorThe TX EM Levels indicator is an original risk management tool that addresses a common challenge faced by traders across different time horizons: determining appropriate stop loss and take profit levels that adapt to market volatility and trading style. Unlike standard ATR indicators that simply display raw values, this script introduces a multi-style volatility framework that automatically adjusts risk parameters based on your chosen trading approach.
What This Indicator Does
This indicator transforms the traditional Average True Range (ATR) concept into a practical, multi-dimensional risk management system by:
Calculating Daily ATR Foundation: Uses daily timeframe ATR as the baseline measurement, ensuring consistency regardless of your chart timeframe
Style-Adaptive Scaling: Applies intelligent multipliers based on three distinct trading approaches
Dual-Purpose Display: Provides both visual plot representation and tabular reference data
Real-Time Risk Levels: Displays both Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) levels simultaneously
Core ATR Calculation
The indicator employs a multi-timeframe approach by requesting daily ATR data using the request.security() function, regardless of your current chart timeframe. This ensures:
Consistency across different viewing timeframes
Stable volatility measurements not affected by intraday noise
Reliable risk parameters for position sizing
Risk-Reward Framework
The indicator implements a 2:1 risk-reward ratio by default:
Stop Loss levels = Calculated ATR value
Take Profit levels = 2x the Stop Loss value
How to Use This Indicator
Setup Instructions

Practical Application
For Position Entry:
Use the calculated SL level as your maximum risk per trade
Set your take profit target at the TP level shown
The values automatically adjust to current market volatility
For Risk Management:
The indicator helps maintain consistent risk exposure across different market conditions
