Overnight Gap Detector Overnight Gap Detector - 4H Body to Body
What it detects:
The indicator finds overnight gaps - i.e., gaps between trading days based on 4-hour (4H) candle data.
Gap Definition (Wick to Wick):
Gap UP: When yesterday's 4H candle's highest point (high) is BELOW today's 4H candle's lowest point (low) - there's "air" between them
Gap DOWN: When yesterday's 4H candle's lowest point (low) is ABOVE today's 4H candle's highest point (high)
Rectangle Drawing (Body to Body):
Although the gap is detected via wicks, the rectangle is only drawn between the bodies:
Gap UP: Draws from today's open to yesterday's body top (max of open/close)
Gap DOWN: Draws from yesterday's body bottom (min of open/close) to today's open
This means the rectangle does NOT cover the wicks, only the actual gap between bodies.
Midline:
50% line between top and bottom of the gap rectangle
Continues to the right along with the rectangle
Stops when the gap is filled
Gap Filled:
A gap is marked as "filled" when:
Gap UP: Price's close goes DOWN and reaches yesterday's body top
Gap DOWN: Price's close goes UP and reaches yesterday's body bottom
Important: Only close body counts, not wicks!
Visual Elements:
Green box: Gap Up (upward gap)
Red box: Gap Down (downward gap)
Yellow box: Filled gap
Labels: "GAP HOLE" when active, "FILLED gap" when filled
Midline: Dotted line through the middle of the gap
Features:
✅ Works on all timeframes (5min, 15min, 1H, 2H, 4H, etc.) - always uses 4H data
✅ Rectangles expand bar by bar until filled
✅ Customizable colors for gaps, borders, midlines, and labels
✅ Label position (inside or outside box)
✅ Toggle to show/hide labels and midlines
✅ Minimum gap size filter (%)

Fair Value Gap / iVFG / Imbalance / MTF SuiteDescription
This indicator detects Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Imbalances across up to 10 user-selected timeframes and manages them with precise retest handling and clean visualization options.
What’s unique
3-candle FVG detection per timeframe (no lookahead).
Retest handling: on the first touch the touched edge snaps to the retest wick and the zone recolors (fresh → retested).
Right-side projection limits to avoid endless extensions.
Deterministic multi-TF overlay: HTF zones are computed independently (lookahead off) and drawn in a stable, priority-based order.
iFVG / parked zones: optionally convert a filled gap into an iFVG (parked/blue) instead of deleting/greying it.
Optional Imbalance Add-on (3-candle), with split halves + 50% midline.
How it works (technical)
FVG logic (3 candles):
Bullish when low > high (gap up); Bearish when high < low (gap down).
The created box spans the untraded range of candle B and starts at time .
Retest behavior:
On the first wick-touch, the nearest boundary adapts to the wick extreme. If enabled, the box recolors to a “retested” palette.
Projection:
Boxes extend to the right; optional bar limit constrains length.
Display limits:
FIFO pruning per direction keeps only the newest N boxes; iFVG/grey pools can share or use separate limits.
Imbalance Add-on (optional):
Classic 3-candle imbalance; draws upper/lower halves and an optional 50% midline.
No lookahead / confirmation:
Calculations run with barmerge.lookahead_off; detection finalizes on bar close (repaint-free on close).
How to use
Treat fresh gaps as potential reaction zones or confluence with liquidity / structure.
Use retested gaps for continuation or rejection logic.
Limit right-projection and visible count to keep charts readable on lower TFs.
Combine with your own execution rules (entries, stops, partials).
Key settings
General: adjust/recolor on retest, right-side limit (bars).
Display Limits: max visible per direction; separate iFVG cap if desired.
Visuals: filled vs. outline, transparency, TF labels (auto or custom), label alignment.
Theme: presets (Pegasus Classic, Icefire, Solarized, Heatmap, Pastel, Monochrome) or Custom colors.
Timeframes: enable up to 10 TF slots (e.g., M1/M5/M15/H1/H4/D1…).
Add-on — Imbalance: enable/disable, midline on/off, filled/outline, colors.
Alerts
New Bullish FVG
New Bearish FVG
Add-on: New Bullish Imbalance
Add-on: New Bearish Imbalance
Notes & limitations
FVG detection is confirmed on bar close; intrabar retest recolor can occur as price interacts.
Historical rendering depends on chart history & session settings.
Many TFs + large box counts can be heavy; use projection limits and display caps for performance.
This tool does not generate trade signals; it visualizes inefficiencies for discretionary or rules-based workflows.

Price Action Trader [BackQuant]Price Action Trader
Introduction
Price Action Trader is an all-in-one, chart-side workflow for reading trend, timing impulses, and mapping high-probability zones the way discretionary traders actually trade. It blends an ensemble trend engine with clean price-action building blocks—Market Structure (BOS/MSB), Fair Value Gaps, Order Blocks, and Volumetric Support/Resistance—so you can form a bias, find confluence, and execute with context.
What is it
A modular “price-action stack” that:
Paints trend bias and impulse shifts on the chart (optional candle coloring).
Auto-annotates internal & swing structure (BOS / MSB).
Finds FVGs on your chosen timeframe and draws them cleanly.
Detects Order Blocks (with optional FVG confirmation).
Builds volumetric S/R levels that adapt to liquidity.
Emits alerts for key events (new levels, touches, breaks, OB creation/touch).
Everything is configurable—keep it minimal (trend + a few zones) or run the full toolkit.
What’s it used for
Bias first, trade second: establish direction/conviction, then execute where structure, gaps, blocks, and volume agree.
Timing: impulse flips and level touches provide actionable triggers.
Risk placement: OB edges, FVG midlines, and volumetric bands give logical stop/target references.
Review & journaling: optional session shading and labeled structures make post-trade notes simple.
Composite Trend Model
A lightweight signal line (default: 30-period) that turns green when the composite regime is bullish and red when bearish. Under the hood, multiple cues (adaptive momentum, de-noised oscillation, volatility-aware filters) are blended into a single directional score; when thresholds flip, the line recolors and optional Long/Short dots appear.
How to use
Treat the line as your bias rail : favor longs while green, shorts while red.
Flat/rapid flips = stand down or reduce size.
Prefer clean charts? Keep only the line and (optionally) trend-painted candles.
Inputs to know
Show Trend Signal Line / Width.
Paint Candles by Trend.
Long/Bearish color controls.
Impulse Model
Highlights short-term pressure shifts with optional impulse candle coloring and ▲/▼ markers. Great for entries in the prevailing trend and for early warnings when impulses fire against bias.
How to use
Up-bias: look for the next impulse-up near structure/FVG/OB or volumetric support.
Down-bias: mirror the logic.
Frequent counter-impulses → expect chop or regime change.
Inputs to know
Show Impulse Signals.
Paint Impulse Candles.
Market Structure
Automatic Internal (tight lookback) and Swing (wider lookback) structure with BOS and MSB (CHoCH) labels. You decide what to show—All, BOS only, MSB only—independently for internal vs swing.
How to use
Use Swing labels for the primary map; Internal for entry refinement.
After a bullish MSB , seek the first HL back into support/FVG/OB.
After a bearish BOS , favor LH fades into resistance/FVG/OB.
Inputs to know
Swing Lookback / Internal Lookback.
Swing/Internal Structure: All | BOS | MSB | None .
Separate bull/bear color controls for both layers.
Fair Value Gaps
Detects bullish/bearish FVGs on the current or higher TF, draws boxes, and can extend them forward. Midlines provide quick visual targeting.
How to use
In-trend fills: in an up-bias, tags of bullish FVGs often offer high-quality continuation entries, especially with structure/OB confluence.
Failed fills: rejections at the midline can signal emerging strength/weakness.
Inputs to know
Show FVG / Show Last N / Extend.
Timeframe (blank = chart TF; set higher TF for macro FVGs).
Bull/Bear colors (tune opacity to taste).
Volumetric Support and Resistance
Builds adaptive S/R from price interaction + relative volume over a rolling lookback. Levels store touch counts; you can show volume stats on labels or inside boxes. Transparency and border thickness can scale with volume so stronger levels are visually louder. Broken levels can auto-remove.
How to use
Use as confluence with structure, OBs, and FVGs. A long at volumetric support + Bull OB + FVG midline is qualitatively different from a naked level.
If a level breaks on strong volume, stop fading—flip expectations or wait for a clean retest.
Inputs to know
Detection Sensitivity / Volume Multiplier.
Analysis Period / Max Levels / Min Distance (%).
Remove Broken / Extend Right / Show Volume Info / Text Inside.
Support/Resistance colors (+ high-vol variants).
Alerts
New Support/Resistance Level Created.
Level Touch.
Level Break.
Order Blocks
Detects bullish/bearish OBs using configurable fractals (3- or 5-bar) with a break confirmation (by Close or High/Low). Optional FVG proximity filter, right-extension, and auto-delete when filled.
How to use
Bullish bias: stalk pullbacks into fresh Bull OBs aligned with a bullish FVG or volumetric support.
If price fills an opposing OB and fails to continue, reassess bias—context may be shifting.
Inputs to know
Fractal Type & Break Method (Close / HL).
Filter with FVG + Max FVG Distance.
Extend Blocks / Delete When Filled / Show Labels.
Alerts
New Order Block Created.
Order Block Touch.
Final Notes
Suggested workflow
Start with Composite Trend (bias).
Mark Swing structure in that direction.
Wait for an Impulse in-direction near an OB / FVG / Volumetric level.
Risk = nearest opposite level or OB edge; targets = FVG midlines / next S/R.
Timeframes & assets
Defaults suit liquid intraday and 1–4H swing.
Slower markets → lengthen lookbacks, lower sensitivity.
Very noisy crypto → keep trend visible, trim drawings (e.g., MSB only, last 3–5 FVGs, 8–12 volume levels).
Keep it readable
Turn off modules you don’t need today—fewer, higher-quality signals beat clutter.

Precision Fair Value Gap (FVG)This indicator scans historical price action to automatically detect unmitigated Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) with precision.
It highlights bullish and bearish gaps that remain open until price fills them, helping traders spot key liquidity imbalances used in Smart Money Concepts (SMC).
🔹 Features
Detects both bullish and bearish FVGs.
Auto-removes mitigated gaps once price returns to fill them.
Configurable gap size, line weight, and colors.
Optimized for performance with capped lookback and line control.
Works on all timeframes and markets.
Perfect for traders who rely on price action and institutional order flow to refine entries, exits, and confluence zones.
ICT Fair Value Gap (FVG) DetectorFair Value Gap (FVG) Indicator
Purpose: Highlights price gaps between three consecutive candles, which signal areas of imbalance that may later act as support or resistance.
How It Works: The script looks for a gap between the high of two bars ago and the low of the current bar (bullish FVG) or the low of two bars ago and the high of the current bar (bearish FVG).
Visuals: These gaps are marked as transparent boxes on the chart, extended to the right until they are "filled" or mitigated by price returning into the gap.
Customization: You can adjust which gaps show, their colors, thresholds, and other display options.
Candle Opening Price & FVG/iFVGIndicator Description: Candle Opening Price & Fair Value Gaps w/(iFVGs)
This powerful, multi-purpose indicator combines two essential trading concepts into one comprehensive tool, designed to provide traders with key price levels and areas of market imbalance.
What It Does
1. Customizable Candle Open Lines: This feature allows you to mark the opening price of specific candles from key trading sessions throughout the day.
Up to 7 Custom Time Inputs: You can define up to seven different times (e.g., "08:30" for London Open, "09:30" for New York Open).
Automatic Horizontal Lines: The script automatically draws a persistent horizontal line at the opening price of the candle corresponding to your set time.
Full Customization: Each line can be independently enabled or disabled and styled with a unique color, width, and line style (solid, dashed, dotted), allowing for a clean and personalized chart setup.
Use Cases: Ideal for marking session opens, news event candles, or any other time-based level that you consider significant for support, resistance, or directional bias.
2. Dynamic Fair Value Gaps (FVG) & Inversions (iFVG): This part of the indicator automatically identifies, draws, and manages Fair Value Gaps, a core concept in modern price action trading.
Automatic FVG Detection: The script identifies both Bullish FVGs (areas of buying inefficiency) and Bearish FVGs (areas of selling inefficiency) based on the classic three-bar pattern.
Clear Visualization: Discovered FVGs are drawn as colored boxes on the chart, extending into the future until they are mitigated. Colors for Bullish and Bearish FVGs are fully customizable.
Inversion Logic: When price wicks into an FVG, the box changes color to signify an "inversion." A Bullish FVG that gets tapped becomes potential resistance (Bearish Inversion), and a Bearish FVG becomes potential support (Bullish Inversion). This dynamic shift helps you track how the market is interacting with these zones.
Zone Mitigation: Once an inverted FVG is fully reclaimed by a candle close, the zone is considered "mitigated" and the box is automatically removed from the chart, keeping your view focused on relevant, active zones.

Muzyorae - Quarterly TheoryQuarterly Theory — NY Session Macro Model
The Quarterly Theory Model is a structured framework for analyzing intraday market behavior based on institutional activity and macro-level cycles.
It divides the New York trading session into four sequential “quarters” (Q1–Q4), each representing distinct phases of market participation, liquidity accumulation, and directional bias.
This model is designed for professional traders who aim to align their strategies with institutional flows, key liquidity zones, and market structure shifts.
It accommodates both AMDX (Accumulation → Manipulation → Distribution → Expansion) and XAMD (reversal sequences) fractal patterns, allowing traders to adapt to varying market conditions.
Price action may expand early during Q1 in an XAMD sequence, representing an initial breakout or early liquidity sweep before the typical Q2 manipulation phase. Traders should be aware that Q1 can occasionally produce unexpected volatility or directional bias in such sequences.
Session Breakdown (New York Time)
Q1 – Accumulation
Time: 9:30 – 10:00 AM
Phase Characteristics: Early session positioning, initial liquidity sweeps, and false moves. Institutions build positions while retail participants often react to gaps and premarket activity.
Note: Price may expand early in an XAMD sequence, creating a short-term directional move before Q2.
Q2 – Manipulation / Expansion
Time: 10:00 – 11:30 AM
Phase Characteristics: The main directional move develops, often characterized by breaks of structure, fair value gaps, and liquidity sweeps. This is a prime area for trend initiation.
Q3 – Distribution / Retracement
Time: 11:30 AM – 1:30 PM
Phase Characteristics: Price consolidates and retraces into prior accumulation zones, reflecting profit-taking or redistribution by institutions. Market chop and sideways movement are common.
Q4 – Final Expansion / Repricing
Time: 1:30 – 4:00 PM
Phase Characteristics: The afternoon session often produces final liquidity sweeps, trend continuation, or reversals, setting the high or low of the day and completing the daily macro cycle.
Key Features of the Model
Fractal-Based Structure: Q1–Q4 cycles reflect institutional behavior at a macro level, scalable to other intraday or multi-day fractals.
Supports AMDX & XAMD: Allows for both standard accumulation → manipulation → distribution → expansion sequences and reversal patterns depending on market behavior.
Early Expansion in Q1: Recognizes that in XAMD sequences, Q1 may produce early directional moves or breakout activity.
True Open Q2 Line: Highlights the opening price of Q2 as a reference for trend validation and potential entry zones.
Dynamic Time Alignment: Fully synchronized with New York (ET) time zone, ensuring accurate representation of market cycles.
Professional Visualization: Optional labels and vertical markers for each quarter, supporting quick visual analysis and pattern recognition.
Integration with ICT Concepts: Compatible with Smart Money Techniques (SMT), Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), Order Blocks (OBs), and Break of Structure (BOS) for enhanced trade planning.
Purpose and Application
Anticipates areas of liquidity accumulation and manipulation.
Identifies optimal entry and exit zones within institutional cycles.
Structures trades around probable trend initiation and continuation periods.
Aligns retail activity with institutional flow for higher probability setups.
Adapts to market variability through AMDX and XAMD fractal patterns.
Accounts for early expansions or breakout activity during Q1 in XAMD sequences.
By using the Quarterly Theory Model, traders gain a systematic, time-based framework to interpret market structure and maximize alignment with institutional participants.
Gap Detector (Body and Candle)Finds/Detects gaps between candles and candle bodies for any chart/timeframe with O(n+delta) performance.
Candle Gaps (between wicks) act as strong support or resistance. They are drawn as solid boxes.
Body Gaps (ignores wicks) act as mild support or resistance. They are depicted with lines.
Adjust the settings for candle/body gap width, smaller the time frame, smaller the gap.
Adjust max historical bars to fine tune performance on your system/setup. The more historical bars the script scans, more time required to load the chart. At times based on system configuration, TradingView may timeout the script due to too many bars. Reducing the max bars helps in this scenario.
This is a revamped version of "Body Gap Detector".
Happy charting !
CandelaCharts - NWOG & NDOG📝 Overview
In trading, opening gaps aren’t just noise—they’re clues. Two key ones are the New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) and the New Day Opening Gap (NDOG).
The NWOG forms between Friday’s close (5 PM EST) and Sunday’s open (6 PM EST). It often acts as a magnet—price tends to revisit it, sometimes days or even weeks later. The NDOG is the daily version, showing imbalances at the start of each session.
Between two NWOGs, the Event Horizon (EH)—the midpoint—often becomes a pull for price. When the price hits it, there's a good chance it keeps moving toward the next gap.
I also watch the Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) zones, usually around the 0.68–0.79 retracements between NWOGs. These levels often line up with institutional interest and make solid spots for entries.
To simplify all this, I use an indicator that automatically detects NWOGs and NDOGs, then plots the EH and OTE levels in real time. No manual drawing. Just clean, updated levels every week.
These gaps and their derived levels help map where price is likely to go—and when to act.

[Top] LHAMA SupertrendLHAMA Supertrend - Advanced Adaptive Trend Following System
Overview
The LHAMA Supertrend is an innovative trend-following indicator that combines adaptive moving average technology with intelligent signal confirmation. Unlike traditional supertrend indicators that rely on simple moving averages, this system uses my Low-High Adaptive Moving Average (🦙 LHAMA) algorithm that dynamically adjusts to market volatility and price action patterns. It is much more responsive to sudden price changes than traditional supertrend indicators, allowing you to jump in earlier and catch more of the move, and it manages this responsiveness without significantly increasing the number of false signals.
What Makes This Original
This indicator introduces several unique concepts not found in standard trend-following tools:
LHAMA Algorithm : The core innovation is the Low-High Adaptive Moving Average, which adapts its responsiveness based on the frequency of new highs and lows within a lookback period. This creates a more intelligent baseline that responds appropriately to different market conditions.
Delayed Confirmation System : Rather than generating immediate signals on price crossovers, the indicator implements a sophisticated confirmation mechanism using slope analysis. Signals are only triggered when both trend direction and momentum align, significantly reducing false signals.
Volume Integration : Optional volume weighting enhances the adaptive calculation, giving more weight to price movements during high-volume periods.
Daily Reset Functionality : Unique daily reset feature helps realign the indicator after overnight gaps, particularly useful for equity markets.
How It Works
LHAMA Calculation
The LHAMA baseline adapts using a coefficient derived from:
Frequency of new highs and lows in the lookback period
Optional volume weighting factor
Smoothed adaptation rate based on market activity
The calculation:
lhama = previous_lhama + momentum_adaptation * (price - previous_lhama)
Where the momentum adaptation increases when markets are making new highs or lows, allowing faster response during trending conditions while providing stability during consolidation.
Signal Generation
The indicator uses a two-stage signal process:
Trend Identification : Price position relative to LHAMA determines basic trend bias
Slope Confirmation : ATR-normalized slope analysis confirms momentum direction
Signal Timing : Buy/sell signals only trigger when trend direction and slope momentum align
Visual Components
LHAMA Line : The adaptive baseline with optional angle-based gradient coloring that visualizes momentum strength
Trend Clouds : Dynamic fill areas that adapt to the last confirmed signal direction
ATR Halo : Opposite-side ATR band providing optional additional context for stop-loss placement
Confirmation Signals : Clear BUY/SELL labels only appear after full confirmation
How to Use
Basic Setup
Apply to any timeframe and symbol
Default LHAMA length of 15 periods works well for most applications
Accuracy depends greatly on chart timeframe and symbol, so make sure to backtest before relying on any signals. For example, ES and NQ work best on the 15m timeframe while GC and CL work best on the 5m.
Enable daily reset for equity markets to handle overnight gaps
Signal Interpretation
Immediate Heads-up : Small triangles show instant trend changes for awareness. These are your warnings to get ready to buy or sell if price takes off. (If many triangles are being printed in both directions, that is a warning that the market is ranging and you should not blindly follow a BUY/SELL signal without additional confirmation.)
Confirmed Signals : BUY/SELL labels appear only after slope confirms the direction
Cloud Color : Locked to the last confirmed signal direction for clear regime identification
Advanced Features
Flat Threshold : Adjust the angle threshold to filter out sideways market noise
Gradient Mode : Toggle between classic supertrend coloring and momentum-based gradients
ATR Halo : Use the opposite-side cloud as a more generous trailing stop level
Risk Management
The indicator provides multiple levels for stop-loss placement:
Tight : Edge of the main trend cloud
Standard : The LHAMA Line itself
Generous : ATR halo boundary
Best Practices
Timeframe Selection : Not all timeframes on all symbols are created equal. Make sure to scroll to the left and verify that your current chart timeframe isn't throwing out tons of bad signals. This will be easy to spot as it show up as constant rapid flipping from buy to sell.
Market Conditions : Performs best in trending markets. The flat threshold setting helps filter out poor performance during strong sideways action, but no indicator is perfect.
Confirmation : Wait for confirmed BUY/SELL signals rather than acting on immediate trend flips for better risk-adjusted returns.
Key Parameters
LHAMA Length (15) : Controls the lookback period for adaptive calculation
Daily Reset : Helps maintain accuracy across overnight gaps
Flat Threshold (5°) : Filters out low-momentum signals
Volume Weighting : Enhances adaptation during high-volume periods
Alerts
The indicator provides two alert types:
"BUY (confirmed)": Triggers when bullish trend and upward slope align
"SELL (confirmed)": Triggers when bearish trend and downward slope align
These alerts fire only on confirmed signals, not on immediate price crossovers, providing higher-quality notifications.
Innovation Summary
This indicator advances trend-following methodology by introducing adaptive baseline calculation, intelligent signal confirmation, and comprehensive visual feedback systems. The combination of LHAMA adaptation, slope-based confirmation, and multi-layered risk management tools creates a more sophisticated approach to trend analysis than traditional supertrend indicators.
The result is a tool that maintains responsiveness during trending conditions while providing stability during consolidation, with clear visual cues for entry, exit, and risk management decisions.
Fair Value Gap with Swing PointsFair Value Gaps occur when there's a significant price difference between the close of one period and the opening of the next, signaling market inefficiencies. Bullish gaps indicate potential upward momentum, while bearish gaps suggest potential downward pressure.
The Barking Rat ReversionsMean Reversion with Multi-Layered Precision
The Barking Rat Reversions is a short-term mean reversion strategy tailored for high-volatility markets. It combines several well-established technical tools in a configuration to identify overextended price movements likely to revert toward equilibrium. The goal is to isolate high-quality, short-term reversal opportunities while filtering out low-conviction setups.
At its core, our strategy triggers off Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) that occur a considerable distance away from a dynamically defined equilibrium band. It then validates these gaps by checking proximity to recent support and resistance drawn from swing extremes.
Additional confirmation comes from momentum filters and wick-rejection patterns, ensuring each entry aligns with both price structure and stretched momentum. Exits use volatility-adjusted profit targets. Keeping the approach disciplined and adaptive.
🧠Core Logic: Selectivity & Structure
This strategy is intentionally very selective. We have designed it to filter out roughly 95% of all market noise, highlighting only setups that pass multiple validation layers outlined below.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) as the Primary Trigger
FVGs identify imbalance zones where price historically retraces. These inefficient zones often become magnets for reversion as the market seeks to rebalance.
Dynamic Equilibrium Band + S/R
Defines a fair value zone with a long-term moving average and combines it with shorter-term swing pivots to establish support/resistance. Only FVGs that occur outside the band and near recent pivots are considered, ensuring reversals are sufficiently distanced and not taken too close to the mean.
Proximity to Support/Resistance
Setup validity depends on location. The strategy filters for FVGs near well-defined structural levels — areas where price has previously turned (i.e., recent swing highs or lows). This increases the likelihood that reversals are occurring at legitimate zones of confluence.
Wick-Rejection Confirmation
Confirms potential exhaustion through characteristic candle wick patterns beyond the equilibrium region. This acts as another filter to improve signal accuracy.
Sequential Filtered Signals
Custom logic ensures that a new signal in any direction must improve upon the previous one, preventing repetitive or suboptimal entries.
Multi-Step Confirmation
All validation layers must coincide on the same bar before a signal triggers, dramatically reducing false positives.
📈Chart Visuals: Designed for Clarity
To ensure transparency and easy interpretation, the script overlays intuitive visuals:
Green “▲” below a candle: Indicates a potential long entry
Red “▼” above a candle: Indicates a potential short entry
Green “✔️”: Marks exit from a trade when ATR target is met
Background shading (green/red): Indicates trade direction while active
Support/Resistance lines: Auto-plotted from recent swing levels
🔔Alerts: Stay Notified Without Watching
The strategy supports real-time alerts on candle close, ensuring that signals are only triggered once fully confirmed.
You must manually set up alerts within your TradingView account. Once configured, you’ll be able to set up one alert per instrument. This one alert covers all relevant signals and exits — ideal for hands-free monitoring.

Note on Sample Size:
You’ll notice the report displays fewer than the ideal 100 trades in the strategy report above. This is intentional. The goal of the script is to isolate high-quality, short-term reversal opportunities while filtering out low-conviction setups. This means that the Barking Rat Reversions strategy is ultra-selective, filtering out over 95% of market noise by enforcing multiple validation layers. The brief timeframe shown in the strategy report here illustrates its filtering logic over a short window — not its full capabilities. As a result, even on lower timeframes like the 1-minute chart, signals are deliberately sparse — each one must pass all criteria before triggering.
We conducted a broader backtest covering the period from December 5, 2024 to July 31, 2025, during which the strategy identified 968 high-probability setups on the same instrument and timeframe as the strategy report.
For a larger dataset:
Once the strategy is applied to your chart, users are encouraged to expand the lookback range or apply the strategy to other volatile pairs to view a full sample.
💡Why 25% Equity Per Trade?
While it's always best to size positions based on personal risk tolerance, we defaulted to 25% equity per trade in the backtesting data — and here’s why:
Backtests using this sizing show manageable drawdowns even under volatile periods
The strategy generates a sizeable number of trades, reducing reliance on a single outcome
Combined with conservative filters, the 25% setting offers a balance between aggression and control
Users are strongly encouraged to customize this to suit their risk profile.

IFVG ExtendedThis indicator identifies and visualizes "Imbalance Fair Value Gaps" (IFVGs) on a price chart. It highlights these gaps, tracks their evolution, and signals when they are "filled" or "invalidated" by price action. The script is quite advanced, using custom types, arrays, and dynamic drawing.
1. Types and Variables
Custom Types:
lab: Stores label information (x, y, direction).
fvg: Stores Fair Value Gap data, including its boundaries, direction, state, labels, and other properties.
Arrays:
Four arrays track bullish and bearish FVGs, and their "invalidated" (filled) versions.
Signals:
Boolean variables to store if a bullish or bearish signal is triggered.
2. User Inputs and Parameters
Display Settings:
How many recent FVGs to show, signal preference (close or wick), ATR multiplier for gap size filtering, and colors for bullish/bearish/midline.
3. Chart Data
Price Data:
Open, high, low, close, and ATR (Average True Range) are stored for use in calculations.
4. Functions
label_maker:
Draws an up or down arrow label at a given point, colored for bullish or bearish.
fvg_manage:
Checks if any FVGs in the array have been "invalidated" (i.e., price has crossed their boundary). If so, moves them to the invalidated array.
inv_manage:
Manages invalidated FVGs, checking if a signal should be fired (i.e., price has reacted to the gap). Also removes old FVGs.
send_it:
Draws the FVGs and their labels on the chart, using boxes and lines for visualization.
5. Main Logic and Visualization
FVG Detection:
On each bar, checks for new bullish or bearish FVGs based on price action and ATR filter.
Adds new FVGs to the appropriate array.
FVG Management:
Updates the arrays, moves invalidated FVGs, and checks for signals.
Drawing:
On the last bar, clears all previous drawings and redraws the current FVGs and their labels.
6. Alerts
Alert Conditions:
Sets up alerts for when a bullish or bearish IFVG signal is triggered, so users can be notified.
Summary
In short:
This script automatically finds and tracks "Imbalance Fair Value Gaps" on your chart, highlights them, and alerts you when price interacts with them in a significant way. It uses advanced Pine Script features to manage and visualize these zones dynamically, helping traders spot potential reversal or continuation points based on gap theory
Mirror US10YThis TradingView script is designed to automatically detect the asset you are viewing (stock, commodity, or crypto) and, if it matches a long list of supported tickers, overlays a "mirror" subchart. This subchart plots the price action of a related pair—typically the asset divided by the US 10-Year Treasury yield (US10Y), or another relevant macro or sector index. The script also detects and visualizes "Imbalance Fair Value Gaps" (IFVGs) on the subchart, and can trigger alerts when these gaps are filled.
1. Automatic Subchart Detection
The script first checks which symbol you are viewing.
If it matches a list of supported stocks or commodities (e.g., NVDA, TSLA, GOLD), it sets a corresponding subchart pair (e.g., NVDA/US20Y, GOLD/US10Y).
If it’s a crypto asset, it checks both the exchange and the symbol, and sets a subchart like BINANCE:ADAUSDT/US10Y.
If a match is found, it enables plotting for the subchart.
2. Subchart Data Fetching
Once a subchart is selected, the script fetches its OHLCV data (open, high, low, close) and a 200-period ATR (Average True Range) using request.security.
It then plots the subchart’s candlesticks in white (bullish) or red (bearish).
3. IFVG (Imbalance Fair Value Gap) Detection
The script defines custom types and arrays to track bullish and bearish IFVGs and their "invalidation" (when the gap is filled).
It detects IFVGs by looking for price gaps between the current and previous candles, filtered by ATR to avoid noise.
When a gap is detected, it is stored in an array with its coordinates and direction.
4. IFVG Management and Visualization
The script manages the lifecycle of each IFVG: it tracks when a gap is filled (invalidated) and moves it to a separate array.
It draws colored boxes and dashed lines on the chart to visualize the last few IFVGs, using green for bullish and red for bearish.
When a gap is filled, it places a label (▲ or ▼) at the fill point.
5. Alerts
The script sets up two alert conditions: one for a bullish IFVG fill, and one for a bearish IFVG fill.
These can be used to trigger TradingView alerts for trading signals.
6. Debugging and Info Labels
The script displays labels on the chart showing the detected ticker and the subpair being plotted, for clarity.
This indicator is even more reliable when combined with the Mirror 2 indicator, which shows the same system but mostly with the BTC pair in crypto.
Both the Mirror US10Y and Mirror 2 also allow you to see the main inverse pairs in stocks.
Ultimate Market Structure [Alpha Extract]Ultimate Market Structure
A comprehensive market structure analysis tool that combines advanced swing point detection, imbalance zone identification, and intelligent break analysis to identify high-probability trading opportunities.Utilizing a sophisticated trend scoring system, this indicator classifies market conditions and provides clear signals for structure breaks, directional changes, and fair value gap detection with institutional-grade precision.
🔶 Advanced Swing Point Detection
Identifies pivot highs and lows using configurable lookback periods with optional close-based analysis for cleaner signals. The system automatically labels swing points as Higher Highs (HH), Lower Highs (LH), Higher Lows (HL), and Lower Lows (LL) while providing advanced classifications including "rising_high", "falling_high", "rising_low", "falling_low", "peak_high", and "valley_low" for nuanced market analysis.
swingHighPrice = useClosesForStructure ? ta.pivothigh(close, swingLength, swingLength) : ta.pivothigh(high, swingLength, swingLength)
swingLowPrice = useClosesForStructure ? ta.pivotlow(close, swingLength, swingLength) : ta.pivotlow(low, swingLength, swingLength)
classification = classifyStructurePoint(structureHighPrice, upperStructure, true)
significance = calculateSignificance(structureHighPrice, upperStructure, true)
🔶 Significance Scoring System
Each structure point receives a significance level on a 1-5 scale based on its distance from previous points, helping prioritize the most important levels. This intelligent scoring system ensures traders focus on the most meaningful structure breaks while filtering out minor noise.
🔶 Comprehensive Trend Analysis
Calculates momentum, strength, direction, and confidence levels using volatility-normalized price changes and multi-timeframe correlation. The system provides real-time trend state tracking with bullish (+1), bearish (-1), or neutral (0) direction assessment and 0-100 confidence scoring.
// Calculate trend momentum using rate of change and volatility
calculateTrendMomentum(lookback) =>
priceChange = (close - close ) / close * 100
avgVolatility = ta.atr(lookback) / close * 100
momentum = priceChange / (avgVolatility + 0.0001)
momentum
// Calculate trend strength using multiple timeframe correlation
calculateTrendStrength(shortPeriod, longPeriod) =>
shortMA = ta.sma(close, shortPeriod)
longMA = ta.sma(close, longPeriod)
separation = math.abs(shortMA - longMA) / longMA * 100
strength = separation * slopeAlignment
❓How It Works
🔶 Imbalance Zone Detection
Identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) between consecutive candles where price gaps create unfilled areas. These zones are displayed as semi-transparent boxes with optional center line mitigation tracking, highlighting potential support and resistance levels where institutional players often react.
// Detect Fair Value Gaps
detectPriceImbalance() =>
currentHigh = high
currentLow = low
refHigh = high
refLow = low
if currentOpen > currentClose
if currentHigh - refLow < 0
upperBound = currentClose - (currentClose - refLow)
lowerBound = currentClose - (currentClose - currentHigh)
centerPoint = (upperBound + lowerBound) / 2
newZone = ImbalanceZone.new(
zoneBox = box.new(bar_index, upperBound, rightEdge, lowerBound,
bgcolor=bullishImbalanceColor, border_color=hiddenColor)
)
🔶 Structure Break Analysis
Determines Break of Structure (BOS) for trend continuation and Directional Change (DC) for trend reversals with advanced classification as "continuation", "reversal", or "neutral". The system compares pre-trend and post-trend states for each break, providing comprehensive trend change momentum analysis.
🔶 Intelligent Zone Management
Features partial mitigation tracking when price enters but doesn't fully fill zones, with automatic zone boundary adjustment during partial fills. Smart array management keeps only recent structure points for optimal performance while preventing duplicate signals from the same level.
🔶 Liquidity Zone Detection
Automatically identifies potential liquidity zones at key structure points for institutional trading analysis. The system tracks broken structure points and provides adaptive zone extension with configurable time-based limits for imbalance areas.
🔶 Visual Structure Mapping
Provides clear visual indicators including swing labels with color-coded significance levels, dashed lines connecting break points with BOS/DC labels, and break signals for continuation and reversal patterns. The adaptive zones feature smart management with automatic mitigation tracking.
🔶 Market Structure Interpretation
HH/HL patterns indicate bullish market structure with trend continuation likelihood, while LH/LL patterns signal bearish structure with downtrend continuation expected. BOS signals represent structure breaks in trend direction for continuation opportunities, while DC signals warn of potential reversals.
🔶 Performance Optimization
Automatic cleanup of old structure points (keeps last 8 points), recent break tracking (keeps last 5 break events), and efficient array management ensure smooth performance across all timeframes and market conditions.
Why Choose Ultimate Market Structure ?
This indicator provides traders with institutional-grade market structure analysis, combining multiple analytical approaches into one comprehensive tool. By identifying key structure levels, imbalance zones, and break patterns with advanced significance scoring, it helps traders understand market dynamics and position themselves for high-probability trade setups in alignment with smart money concepts.

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

Automated Scalping Signals with TP/SL Indicator [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Automated Scalping Signals with Take Profit & Stop Loss Indicator is a multi-timeframe trading system that combines market structure analysis with directional bias filtering to identify potential scalping opportunities. It detects Points of Interest (POI) including Fair Value Gaps (FVG) and Order Blocks (OB) while cross-referencing entries with higher timeframe exponential moving average positioning to create systematic entry conditions.
The indicator features adaptive timeframe calculations that automatically scale analysis periods based on your chart timeframe, maintaining consistent analytical relationships across different trading sessions. It provides integrated trade management with stop loss calculation methods, configurable risk-reward ratios, and real-time performance tracking through dashboard displays showing trade statistics, bias direction, and active position status.
This advanced system is designed for low timeframe trading, typically performing optimally on 1 to 15-minute charts across popular instruments such as OANDA:XAUUSD , CME_MINI:MES1! , CME_MINI:ES1! , CME_MINI:MNQ1! , CBOT_MINI:YM1! , CBOT_MINI:MYM1! , BYBIT:BTCUSDT.P , BYBIT:ETHUSDT.P , or any asset and timeframe of your preference.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator operates using a dual-timeframe mathematical framework where higher timeframe exponential moving averages establish directional bias through cross-over analysis, while simultaneously scanning for specific market structure patterns on the POI timeframe. The timeframe calculation engine uses multiplication factors to determine analysis periods, ensuring the bias timeframe provides trend context while the POI timeframe captures structural formations.
The structural analysis begins with FVG detection, which systematically scans price action to identify imbalances where gaps exist between consecutive candle ranges with no overlapping wicks. When such gaps are detected, the algorithm measures their size against minimum thresholds to filter out insignificant formations. Concurrently, OB recognition analyzes three-candle sequences, examining specific open/close relationships that indicate potential institutional accumulation zones. Once these structural patterns are identified, the algorithm cross-references them against the higher timeframe bias direction, creating a validation filter that only permits entries aligned with the prevailing EMA cross-over state. When price subsequently intersects these validated POI zones, entry signals generate with the system calculating entry levels at zone midpoints, then applying the selected stop loss methodology combined with the configured risk-reward ratio to determine take profit placement.
To mirror realistic trading conditions, the indicator incorporates configurable slippage calculations that account for execution differences between intended and actual fill prices. When trades reach their take profit or stop loss levels, the algorithm applies slippage adjustments that worsen the exit prices in a conservative manner - reducing take profit fills and increasing stop loss impact. This approach ensures backtesting results reflect more realistic performance expectations by accounting for spread costs, market volatility during execution, and liquidity constraints that occur in live trading environments.
It also has a performance dashboard that continuously tracks and displays comprehensive trading metrics:
1/ Bias TF / POI TF: Displays the calculated timeframes used for bias analysis and POI detection, showing the actual periods (e.g., "15m / 5m") that result from the multiplier settings to confirm proper adaptive timeframe selection
2/ Bias Direction: Shows current market trend assessment (Bullish, Bearish, or Sideways) derived from EMA cross-over analysis to indicate which trade directions align with prevailing momentum
3/ Data Processing: Indicates how many price bars have been analyzed by the system, helping users verify if complete historical data has been processed for comprehensive strategy validation
4/ Total Trades: Displays the cumulative number of completed trades plus any active positions, providing volume assessment for statistical significance of other metrics
5/ Wins/Losses: Shows the raw count of profitable versus unprofitable trades, offering immediate insight into strategy effectiveness frequency
6/ Win Rate: Reveals the percentage of successful trades, where values above 50% generally indicate effective entry timing and values below suggest strategy refinement needs
7/ Total R-Multiple: Displays cumulative risk-reward performance across all trades, with positive values demonstrating profitable system operation and negative values indicating net losses requiring analysis
8/ Average R Win/Loss: Shows average risk-reward ratios for winning and losing trades separately, where winning averages approaching the configured take profit ratio indicate minimal slippage impact while losing averages near -1.0 suggest effective stop loss execution
9/ TP Ratio / Slippage: Displays the configured take profit ratio and slippage settings with calculated performance impact, showing how execution costs affect actual versus theoretical returns
10/ Profit Factor: Calculates the ratio of total winning amounts to total losing amounts, where values above 1.5 suggest robust profitability, values between 1.0-1.5 indicate modest success, and values below 1.0 show net losses
11/ Maximum Drawdown: Tracks the largest peak-to-trough decline in R-multiple terms, with smaller negative values indicating better capital preservation and risk control during losing streaks
🟢 How to Use
Start by applying the indicator to your chart and observe its performance across different market conditions to understand how it identifies bias direction and POI formations. Then navigate to the settings panel to configure the Bias Timeframe Multiplier for trend context sensitivity and POI Timeframe Multiplier for structural analysis frequency according to your trading preference and objectives.
Next, fine-tune the EMA periods in Bias Settings to control trend detection sensitivity and select your preferred POI types based on your analytical preference. Proceed to configure your Risk Management approach by selecting from the available stop loss calculation methods and setting the Take Profit ratio that aligns with your risk tolerance and profit objectives. Complete the setup by customizing Display Settings to control table visibility and trade visualization elements, adjusting UI positioning and colors for optimal chart readability, then activate Alert Conditions for automated notifications on trade entries, exits, and bias direction changes to support systematic trade management.
