Vision Essentials - RSIVision Essentials - RSI is the first indicator from our essentials pack we have planned. It's our twist on the highly popular RSI (Relative Strength Index) Oscillator.
What makes this indicator different?
Based on community feedback we provided users with a visual + adjustable oversold and overbought range to avoid having to redraw boxes during session. Adjusting the settings will update the box positioning on the chart to match.
We utilize custom inputs to allow users to select HA based open, high, low, and close as well as the usual open, high, low, close, hl2, hlc3, and ohlc4 inputs (more coming soon)
The indicator will track the values of the recent high & low points of the RSI based on the distance setting. These values are displayed as text floating at the end of the pane, as well as plotted lines for a visual of the past and current high/low points
The user has complete customization of the color schemes used by: The oversold box, the overbought box, the RSI lower color, the RSI higher color, the recent low color, the recent high color, and the text color. The user can also control the distance that is utilized for finding the recent High & Low points.
How do I use this indicator?
To start using this indicator simply apply it to your chart. We use pre-defined values matching the most common RSI configuration however, you're encouraged to view the settings to fully understand how to adjust the various settings as well as learn how the indicator changes under each individual setting.
RSI Source - This is the input source the RSI calculation is based on. Close is the most common, and default which utilizes the closing price of candles
RSI Length - This setting provides the indicator the length (distance) you want the RSI outlook to be based on. The most common is a 14-day timeframe, but keep in mind that the value of 14 on a 15min chart isn't the same as the value of 14 on a 1day chart. The simple way to view this setting is to consider how many candles back you want the calculation to be based on
RSI Oversold - This setting is considered the "low" level of the RSI. 30 is the most common setting. The lower the RSI, the more momentum that is considered to be in place
RSI Overbought - This setting is considered the "high" level of the RSI. 70 is the most common setting. The higher the RSI, the more momentum that is considered to be in place
High/Low Distance - This setting defines the number of candles back that the indicator will look to determine the recent high/low values
Visual Style - Gradient provides you with a gradient fill between 2 RSI lines. The first is the root RSI based on your RSI settings, and the second is a doubled value which creates the fill gap. Gradient + Highlight is the same as Gradient, but enables coloring on the root RSI edge of the gradient. Highlight Only provides you with a single line based on your RSI settings
Highlight Color - This setting controls the color of your root RSI plot when using one of the highlight based Visual Styles
RSI Lower - This setting controls the color used by the indicator when the RSI value is on the lower end of the spectrum
RSI Higher - This setting controls the color used by the indicator when the RSI value is on the higher end of the spectrum
Recent Low Color - This setting controls the color used by the indicator for plotting the recent low line
Recent High Color - This setting controls the color used by the indicator for plotting the recent high line
Text Color - This setting controls the text color used for the recent high low values at the end of the pane

coates moving averages (cma)This indicator uses three moving averages:
2 period low simple ma
2 period high simple ma
9 period least squares ma
The trend is determined by the angle of the moving averages, current close relative the the 9 least squares ma (lsm) and the current close relative to the prior two periods high and low.
When there are consecutive closes inside the prior two candles high and low then a range is signaled:
In ranges the buy zone is between the lowest low and the lowest close of the current range. The sell zone is between the highest high and the highest close. The zones are adjusted as long as the new close is within the prior two candles range:
When price closes above the 2 high ma and the 9 lsm then a bull trend is signaled if all moving averages are angled upward (as seen at #4 in the chart above and #1 the chart below ). If the 9 lsm and / or the 2 low ma continue to angle downward, following a close above the 2 high ma and 9 lsm, then a prolonged range or reversal is expected (#2 in the chart below):
During a bull trend the buy zone is between the 2 low ma and the 9 lsm. The profit target is the 2 high ma:
During dip buying opportunities price should resist closing below the 9 lsm. If there is one close below the 9 lsm then it is a canary in the coalmine that tells us to proceed with caution. This will often signal a range, based on the conditions outlined above. To avoid a prolonged range, or reversal, price needs to immediately react in the direction of the prevailing trend:
If the moving averages are angled down and the most recent close is below the 2 low ma and 9 lsm then trend is fully bearish:
During a bear trend the short zone is between the 2 high ma and 9 lsm. The profit target is the 2 low ma:
When the 2 high ma angles down and the 2 low ma angles up while price closes inside both mas then it indicates a cma squeeze:
Volatility is expected in the direction of the breakout following the squeeze. In this situation traps / shakeouts are common. If there is a wick outside the cma, with a close inside, then it indicates a trap / shakeout. If there is a close outside the 2 high / low ma then it signals a breakout.
A trend is considered balanced when the 9 lsm is roughly equidistant from the 2 low and 2 high mas. If the 9 lsm crosses the 2 high or 2 low ma then it signals exhaustion / imbalance.
For a stop loss I use the prior three periods low, for bull trends, and the prior three periods high for bear trends. I would expect other reliable stops, such as the parabolic sar or bill williams fractal, to be effective as well. The default moving averages should be very effective on all timeframes and assets classes, however this indicator was developed for bitcoin with a focus on higher timeframes such as the 4h, daily and weekly.
As with any other technical indicator there will be bad signals. Proceed with caution and never risk more than you are willing to lose.
MAPS - HiLo DivergenceThe High/Low indicator utilizes the measuring of local highs and lows as well as local peaks and troughs to identify possible divergence in the price action.
Purple oscillator = Higher Timeframe's price measurement
Purple high triangle = A local high on the higher timeframe has been made
Purple low triangle = A local low on the higher timeframe has been made
Red high triangle on the purple oscillator = A local high on the higher timeframe has been made and is deemed a bearish divergent high
Green low triangle on the purple oscillator = A local low on the higher timeframe has been made and is deemed a bullish divergent low
Orange oscillator = Current Timeframe's price measurement
Orange high triangle = A local high on the current timeframe has been made
Orange low triangle = A local low on the current timeframe has been made
Red high triangle on the orange oscillator = A local high on the current timeframe has been made and is deemed a bearish divergent high
Green low triangle on the orange oscillator = A local low on the current timeframe has been made and is deemed a bullish divergent low
20 Pips & Dip™ Indicator20 Pips & Dipp script based on a few different indicators which together provides powerful help for all level of traders, especially beginners. Also, script have toggles to switch on/off: Renko Reversal, EMA, HHLL, Support/Resistance, Daily Open modules.
1st Module – Renko Reversal Alerts Indicator. The Indicator point out a spot where the revers are happens. Any changes in Price that do not reach a minimum amount are usually filtered. This helps to keep attention on larger, significant moves, and helps not to avoid the minute fluctuations in the market.
How it’s works?
- ENTER a trade JUST AFTER 1 Renko brick is printed. BUY triangle (green buy text with green triangle) is generated if a bearish Renko Brick is followed by a bullish brick. In other words, a buy signal happens when a white block is drawn after a black one. The buy happens then at the closing price that may be higher than the top of the last brick. It can go two bricks up minus a tick or pip.
- EXIT that trade, and open a new reverse position, just after 1 Renko brick is printed in the opposite direction. SELL triangle (red sell text with red triangle) is generated if a bullish brick is followed by a bearish brick. In other words, a sell signal happens when a black block is drawn, after a white block. The same situation as with a buy signal happens on sell signals. There is an uncertainty on the close price that may go as far as one tick above the next potential bearish block.
How to create custom ALERTS? Right click on a sell or buy triangle > Add Alert > 20 Pips & Dipp > Choose between Long or Short opportunity. In options field choose ONCE PER BAR. All other options you can choose according to your personal needs. If you want alert for another option (i.e. Short opportunity) just add one more.
Just to know! To understand how those module work better to switch to Renko chart. But Renko Chart with Renko brick size & Timeframe less than 1 day available only for PRO+ accounts and better. Also, we need to say that TradingView platform do not provide TICK data as we know. So, it may confuse you. Be careful!
2nd Module – Moving Average Exponential. The exponential moving average (EMA) is a weighted moving average (WMA) that gives more weighting, or importance, to recent price data than the simple moving average (SMA) does. The EMA responds more quickly to recent price changes than the SMA. The formula for calculating the EMA just involves using a multiplier and starting with the SMA. Like all moving averages, this technical indicator is used to produce buy and sell signals based on crossovers and divergences from the historical average. By default, our EMA have 50 period. The 50 moving average is the standard swing-trading moving average and very popular. Most traders use it to ride trends because it’s the ideal compromise between too short and too long term. Some people call it medium-term.
How to use it? EMAs are commonly used in conjunction with other indicators to confirm significant market moves and to gauge their validity. For traders who trade intraday and fast-moving markets, the EMA is more applicable. Quite often, traders use EMAs to determine a trading bias. For example, if an EMA on a daily chart shows a strong upward trend, an intraday trader’s strategy may be to trade only from the long side on an intraday chart.
Limitations of EMA! An EMA relies wholly on historical data. Many people believe that markets are efficient - that is, that current market prices already reflect all available information. If markets are indeed efficient, using historical data should tell us nothing about the future direction of asset prices.
3rd Module - Pivot Points (High/Low). Also known as Bar Count Reversals, are used to anticipate potential price reversals. Pivot Point Highs are determined by the number of bars with lower highs on either side of a Pivot Point High. Pivot Point Lows are determined by the number of bars with higher lows on either side of a Pivot Point Low. Default period is 10.
How this indicator works? The longer the trend (the higher the period selected) before and after the Pivot Point, the more significant the Pivot Point. Pivot Points can be used to help determine where to draw trendlines in order to visualize price patterns.
Calculation! Pivot Point Highs are determined by the number of bars with lower highs on either side of a Pivot Point High. Pivot Point Lows are determined by the number of bars with higher lows on either side of a Pivot Point Low.
4th Module - Higher High Lower Low indicator. Higher high and higher lows and Lower lows and lower highs are trends in a chart. Stocks in general never go up or down in linear fashion, every rise is followed by correction and then again it may either go up or down, same is true for downtrend every fall is followed by a correction in the upward direction and then new downtrend or uptrend is followed. After every rise, the stock took breather corrected to some extent and then new uptrend began, when you see the correction every low is higher than the previous lows and every next peak is higher than it’s previous peak. This is higher highs and higher lows trend.
How it’s work? This script finds pivot highs and pivot lows then calculates Higher Highs, Higher Lows & Lower Lows, Lower Highs. And it calculates support/resistance by using HH-HL-LL-LH points. Generally, HH and HL shows up-trend, LL and LH shows down-trend. If price breaks resistance levels it means the trend is up or if price breaks support level it means the trend is down, so the script can change bar colour blue or black by default. if there is up-trend then bar colour is blue, or if down-trend then bar colour is black. Support and resistance levels change dynamically.
Trick! If you use smaller numbers for Left Hand/Right Hand sides then it will be more sensitive!
5th Module - Daily Open Price. The opening price is the price at which a security first trades upon the opening of an exchange on a trading day; for example, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) opens at precisely 9:30 a.m. Eastern time. The price of the first trade for any listed stock is its daily opening price. The opening price is an important marker for that day's trading activity, particularly for those interested in measuring short-term results such as day traders.
Important! If daily open price was higher than current price, crosses will be red. And if daily open price lower than current price crosses will be green. Colours change dynamically.
You need to know it! An opening price is not identical to the previous day's closing price. There are several day-trading strategies based on the opening price of a market or security. Research “Gap Fade and Fill” or “Fade”.

Expanded Features of Mxwll Price Action Suite
Internal and External Structures
Internal Structures: These elements refer to the price formations and patterns that occur within a smaller scope or a specific trading session. The suite can detect intricate details like minor support/resistance levels or short-term trend reversals.
External Structures: These involve larger, more significant market patterns and trends spanning multiple sessions or time frames. This capability helps traders understand overarching market directions.
Customizable Sensitivities
Adjusting sensitivity settings allows users to tailor the indicator's responsiveness to market changes. Higher sensitivity can catch smaller fluctuations, while lower sensitivity might focus on more significant, reliable market moves.
Break of Structure (BoS) and Change of Character (CHoCH)
BoS: This feature identifies points where the price breaks a significant structure, potentially indicating a new trend or a trend reversal.
CHoCH: Detects subtle shifts in the market's behavior, which could suggest the early stages of a trend change before they become apparent to the broader market.
Order Blocks and Market Phases
Order Blocks: These are essentially price levels or zones where significant trading activities previously occurred, likely pointing to the positions of smart money.
HH/LH/LL/LH Areas: Identifying Higher Highs (HH), Lower Highs (LH), Lower Lows (LL), and Lower Highs (LH) helps in understanding the trend and market structure, aiding in predictive analysis.
Rolling Timeframe Highs/Lows and Volume Comparisons
Tracks highs and lows over specified rolling periods, providing dynamic support and resistance levels.
Compares volume data across different timeframes to assess the strength or weakness of the current price movements.

RTH Candles Overlay--Overview
Unlock a new way to analyze Regular Trading Hours (RTH) with this powerful indicator! Designed for traders who focus on the 09:30–16:00 market session (default EST), it redefines hourly price action by aligning candlesticks with the RTH start at 09:30, rather than the standard XX:00. It also plots hourly high/low lines and projection zones to pinpoint potential support, resistance, and price targets. Plus, it displays compact hourly candlesticks on the right side of your chart for quick, at-a-glance analysis.
--Key Features
Shifted RTH Candles: Unlike standard hourly candles starting at XX:00, this indicator aligns candles with the RTH open at 09:30 (e.g., 09:30–10:30, 10:30–11:30). This captures true market momentum from the opening bell, offering a more accurate view of price action.
Session High/Low Lines: Marks the high and low prices for each session with clear, labeled lines (e.g., “0930-1030 High”) to highlight key levels.
Projection Zones: Draws shaded boxes above and below each session’s range (default: 0.25 and 0.5 Projection levels) to show potential price targets or reversal zones.
Shifted Candlesticks: Displays each shifted Hour as a candlestick (open, high, low, close) on the right side of the chart, with bullish candles in green and bearish in gray for easy comparison.
Vertical Markers: Dotted vertical lines mark the start of each period (e.g., 09:30) for clear time segmentation.
Historical Analysis: View up to 5 days of past sessions to spot trends and recurring levels.
Fully Customizable: Adjust session times, timezone, colors, and projection levels to fit your trading style.
--How It Works
RTH-Aligned Candles: The indicator divides the trading day into up to seven sessions (default: hourly from 09:30 to 16:00 EST). Each session starts at times like 09:30, 10:30, etc., aligning with the RTH open instead of standard hourly intervals. This shift ensures you see price action as it unfolds during key market hours.
High/Low Lines: Horizontal lines mark the highest and lowest prices for each session, with customizable labels for easy reference.
Fibonacci Zones: Shaded boxes extend above (0.25 to 0.5 times the session’s range) and below (–0.25 to –0.5) each session’s high/low, highlighting potential price targets or areas where price may reverse.
Candles: Each shifted hour is summarized as a candlestick on the right side of the chart, showing open, high, low, and close prices. Bullish candles are green, bearish are gray, and you can adjust their size and spacing.
Vertical Lines: Dotted lines at the start of each session (e.g., 09:30) help you visualize session boundaries.
Historical Data: Analyze up to 5 days of past sessions to identify patterns or key levels.
--Settings
Timezone: Set your market’s timezone (default: EST, -4 hours).
Session Times: Customize up to seven sessions (default: hourly from 09:30 to 16:00).
Max Days to Plot: Show up to 5 days of historical sessions (default: 1 day).
Candle Styles: Toggle session candles, adjust width, spacing, and offset. Customize bullish (green) and bearish (gray) colors.
High/Low Lines: Enable/disable high/low lines, set color (default: gray), style (solid, dotted, dashed), and label size. Optionally show session open lines and labels.
Fibonacci Zones: Turn projection zones on/off, adjust levels (default: 0.25 and 0.5), and choose fill color (default: translucent gray).
Vertical Lines: Toggle session start lines and customize their color and style.
--Best Used For
Day Trading: Spot key levels and price targets during RTH sessions, aligned with the 09:30 market open.
RTH Analysis: Get a clearer picture of price action with candles that match the market’s true rhythm, starting at 09:30 instead of XX:00.
Fibonacci Trading: Use projection zones to identify potential support, resistance, or breakout levels.
Session Comparison: Compare price action across sessions using compact candlesticks and historical data.
--How to Use
1. Add the indicator to your TradingView chart (works best on 1-hour or lower timeframes).
2. Set the timezone and session times to match your market (default: 09:30–16:00 EST).
3. Enable/disable features like Fibonacci zones, high/low lines, or session candles in the settings.
4. Use the shaded zones to anticipate price targets or reversals based on Fibonacci levels.
5. Analyze session candles and historical data to spot trends or recurring levels.
--Why This Indicator?
The RTH Session Candles with projection Zones indicator is a game-changer for traders who want to focus on the market’s true rhythm. By aligning candles with the 09:30 RTH open, it captures price action as it happens, unlike standard hourly charts. Paired with projection zones and clear session markings, it’s a simple yet powerful tool to identify key levels and potential price moves. Perfect for day traders, swing traders, or anyone who wants a cleaner, more precise view of the market.

DD IFVG [Pro+] (Dodgy)Introduction
DD IFVG° is an automated charting tool built to track inversion logic after displacement events—specifically when Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) are closed through and act as an inversion gap. The tool adheres to logic taught by DodgyDD and inspired by Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology, offering a clean visual interface to support traders studying price behaviour after liquidity sweeps, FVG closures, and delivery to targets.
This indicator does not draw zones or suggest direction. It operates entirely on confirmed price events and produces logic-bound visuals designed for traders who already understand IFVG-based reasoning and seek visual consistency across sessions and Timeframes.
Key Terms and Definitions
Swing High / Swing Low: A swing high is a local price peak with lower highs on either side. A swing low is a local trough with higher lows on either side. These are used to detect where liquidity may rest and are required for confirming the initial raid condition in the IFVG model.
Liquidity Raid: This occurs when price breaks a prior swing high or low, effectively “sweeping” a level where orders may be clustered. A raid is a required precursor to inversion logic in this model. The tool will not evaluate a potential Fair Value Gap or DD Inversion unless a swing high or low has been taken first.
Fair Value Gap (FVG): A Fair Value Gap is a price imbalance that occurs when a strong move leaves a gap between candles—specifically, when the high of one candle and the low of a later candle do not overlap. FVGs often emerge during displacement and are commonly studied as inefficiencies within a price leg.
DD Inversion: A DD inversion happens when price fully closes through an existing Fair Value Gap after raiding liquidity, suggesting the original imbalance rebalanced, and looks to reverse its original role. For example, when a bearish FVG is closed above after raiding a swing low, it may behave with a change of orderflow (bullish inversion). The tool recognizes IFVGs as “inverted” after a full-body candle closes through the gap post raid.
Displacement: A strong, directional price move—typically with momentum—that leaves a Fair Value Gap behind. Displacement is important in inversion logic, as it creates the context and confidence in comparing and contrasting FVGs and DD Inversions for obvious flips in market behaviour.
DD Line: Once inversion occurs, the tool draws a single horizontal array on the candle's close. It marks the model’s activation level—not a prediction level or a support/resistance zone. It serves as a reference for when model logic is sequentially active.
Opposing Swing: The swing high or low opposite the one that was swept during the initial raid. This becomes the model’s first target for mechanical delivery and is automatically drawn once the DD line is triggered. When price reaches this swing, the model has reached its objective and could offer opportunities for further continuation to additional liquidity pools.
Invalidation: A DD Inversion is considered invalid in one of two scenarios, which the user can toggle individually: a body print back above/below the inversion in bearish/bullish conditions, or trading above/below the most recent swing high/low after the liquidity raid in bearish/bullish conditions. The DD line will continue extending when traded to until the setup is invalidated, or when the Opposing Swing is reached.
Consequent Encroachment (CE): The midpoint (50%) of the FVG or IFVG. This line can be optionally displayed for users who use midpoint reference logic. It is not required by the model’s internal logic but may assist with discretionary interpretation.
Description
At its core, DD IFVG° follows a structured three-step logic sequence: a FVG is created, liquidity is taken, and the Fair Value Gap (FVG) inside of the leg of the raid is closed through, signally a potential orderflow shift. Once inversion is confirmed, a DD line is plotted at the close of the candle that caused the inversion, making it the structural anchor for the model.
The tool does not account for partial fills or candle wicks for FVGs or IFVGs. Only full-body closures through a qualifying FVG are recognized. When this occurs, a bullish or bearish inversion is validated and the model becomes active. From there, the opposing swing (the unswept high or low from the displacement leg) is automatically drawn as the target for the IFVG model.
The model remains active until either the opposing swing is tagged (completion) or Invalidation Condition is triggered (close through DD IFVG, or price violating the liquidity raid swing). Upon invalidation, the DD line turns gray, signalling that the structure is no longer valid for ongoing tracking.
Key Features
The Bias allows traders to define whether to track bullish inversions (closing above bearish FVGs), bearish inversions (closing below bullish FVGs), or neutral for both. This allows isolate directional focus or display all structures on the same chart mechanically.
The Liquidity Timeframe defines the Timeframe for swing highs and lows that are identified for the required liquidity raid. The Chart mode allows analysts to use the active chart Timeframe. Auto enables a custom Timeframe Alignment, explained inside of the setting tooltip. Custom allows for specific frame alignment, which is helpful when syncing with specific higher-Timeframe structure. Session allows the user to use session highs and lows for the liquidity raid. Observe the difference in the DD IFVG's frequency based on different Liquidity Timeframe configurations:
Chart:
Automatic:
Custom (1H):
Session:
The FVG Filter Timeframe requires the DD setup to trade into a FVG before qualifying the raid filter. For instance, setting this to 4H ensures that only setups that form within a 4-hour FVG. This gives analysts an additional filter to qualify the start of the mechanical model.
Session Filter enables traders to define up to four specific Time blocks when the model is permitted to trigger. The Macros Only toggle filters setups further by limiting activation to the first and last 10 minutes of each hour—a filter inspired for intraday traders and scalpers.
The Invalidation Condition determines when a DD inversion is considered not longer valid. Close will maintain the inversion as active until price prints a body past the DD IFVG. Swing will maintain the inversion as active until the most recent swing from the liquidity raid is traded through; in this case a warning will appear once price prints a candle body past the DD IFVG.
Model Style includes customizable controls for the DD line, the opposing swing marker, and invalidated states. Label appearance, line styles, and extension behaviour are fully user-controlled. Traders can also enable the Consequent Encroachment (CE) line, which marks the 50% midpoint of the FVG and IFVG.
An Info Table is available to display current model state, including user bias, active Timeframes, asset, and Time filter. Its position is fully customizable and can be moved to match chart preferences.
How Traders Can Use the Indicator Effectively
DD IFVG° is not meant to identify trade signals, entries, or exits. It is best used as a visual tracker and confluence for structure-based delivery, particularly for those following DodgyDD-style IFVG logic. The tool excels as a companion for:
Journaling and reviewing IFVG-based setups across Timeframes and sessions
Studying structural completion or invalidation behaviour
Tracking delayed deliveries and retracement-based logic
Traders using the tool should be familiar with FVG formation, inversion criteria, and the importance of opposing swing resolution.
Usage Guidance
Add DD IFVG° to a TradingView chart. This is a fractal script and can be applied across any Timeframe or asset pairing depending on your session model and preferences.
Use the DD line to track inversion structure, monitor when inversions are created and negated, and reference the opposing swing to determine whether structural delivery has completed.
Use the DD IFVG° in combination with your own discretion and narrative to assess when the model has flipped, held, or broken.

Swing Highs and Lows Detector🔍 Swing Highs and Lows Detector
The Swing Highs and Lows Detector is a powerful tool for traders looking to identify meaningful structural shifts in price action, based on swing point logic and internal trend shifts.
📈 What It Does
This indicator automatically identifies and labels:
HH (Higher High) – Price broke above the previous swing high
LH (Lower High) – Price failed to break the previous high, signaling potential weakness
LL (Lower Low) – Price broke below the previous swing low
HL (Higher Low) – Price maintained a higher support level, indicating strength
The script distinguishes between bullish and bearish internal shifts and tracks the highest/lowest points between those shifts to determine the swing structure.
⚙️ How It Works
You can choose between two shift detection modes:
"Open": Compares closing price to the first open of the opposite streak
"High/Low": Uses the high of bearish or low of bullish candles
Once a shift is confirmed, the indicator scans the bars between shifts to find the most significant swing high or low
When a valid swing is detected, it’s labeled directly on the chart with color-coded markers
🛎️ Built-in Alerts
Set alerts for:
Higher High
Lower High
Lower Low
Higher Low
These alerts help you catch key structural shifts in real time — great for breakout traders, structure-based analysts, and smart money concepts (SMC) strategies.
✅ How to Use
Confirm Trend Strength or Reversals – Use HH/HL to confirm an uptrend, LL/LH to confirm a downtrend
Combine with Liquidity Sweeps or Zones – Ideal for SMC or Wyckoff-style setups
Entry/Exit Triggers – Use swing breaks to time entries or exits near key structural points
Teddy LiteOverview
"Teddy" overlays key price levels—Daily Open (DO), Average Daily Range (ADR), and ADR Extensions (ADE)—on intraday charts. Designed for traders, it provides a clear framework to align with market ranges, avoid choppy price action, and stay out of overbought/oversold conditions, enhancing decision-making in dynamic markets.
Originality and Usefulness
"Teddy" uniquely combines DO, ADR High/Low, and ADE High/Low with dynamic percentage labels, while offering a concise view of price boundaries for daily Highs and Lows.
What It Does
Plots DO, ADR High/Low, and ADE High/Low as levels on the chart.
Labels each level with percentage distances from the current price (e.g., "ADRH (2.34%)").
Customizes visuals for clarity (colors, line styles, label sizes).
How It Works
Data Sources: Retrieves daily open and historical high/low data to compute ranges.
Calculations:
Daily Open (DO): Marks the session’s opening price.
ADR: Estimates typical daily range from past data, centered on DO to set High/Low bounds.
ADE: Extends ADR by a fixed percentage for outer limits.
Visualization: Updates lines and labels live, with user-defined colors, styles, and sizes.
How It Helps Traders
"Teddy" guides traders to avoid chasing markets in extended conditions:
Respecting the range: ADR High/Low define range-friendly zones—price above DO nearing ADR High signals bullish momentum is peaking, while below DO near ADR Low supports bearish momentum peaking.
Avoiding Choppy Conditions: Price lingering near DO often indicates indecision; "Teddy" highlights this level, helping you define balanced market conditions that favor choppy conditions.
Steering Clear of Overbought/Oversold: ADE High/Low mark extended levels where reversals are extremely—price hitting ADE Highlights the trend strength on the day but warns price is extremely over extended.
This structured approach keeps trades aligned with the markets average range, so traders can avoid extremes favorable levels for choppiness.
How to Use It
Apply to an intraday chart (e.g., SPY 5m).
Customize via inputs:
"Appearance Settings": Colors, line styles (Solid, Dotted, Dashed), widths (1-6), label visibility, and sizes (Tiny to Huge).
Watch levels: Consider reducing risk as the market approaches our ADRH/L levels. Trades can also play breakouts/failed breakouts at ADR High/Low or at ADE High/Low. Additionally remaining patient while the auction remains in balance near Day Open is an option as well.
Underlying Concepts
Range Dynamics: ADR reflects average daily volatility, DO anchors context, and ADE flags extensions.
Price Action: Levels highlight Volatility/Range (ADR) versus consolidation (DO) or expansive exhaustion (ADE).
Limitations
Optimized for day traders during live sessions; less effective in low-volatility periods.
Requires sufficient historical data for accurate ADR/ADE.
Levels are contextual and where I expect reactive price action to occur.. They are not guaranteed signals.
Inner Circle Toolkit [TakingProphets]Inner Circle Toolkit — A Complete ICT Trading Companion
The Inner Circle Toolkit is a closed-source, all-in-one trading tool designed for traders following ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and Smart Money Concepts strategies. Every part of this script is built with purpose — not just a mashup of indicators, but a structured framework to help you follow price through the lens of institutional behavior and liquidity theory.
Let’s walk through what it does and how it can help you:
🕒 Session Liquidity Levels (Asia, London, New York, NY Lunch)
The indicator automatically marks the highs and lows of the major trading sessions:
-Asian Session
-London Session
-New York AM Session
-New York Lunch
These levels are important because price often returns to these points to grab liquidity before making a move. This gives traders clear areas to watch for potential sweeps, rejections, or reversals — without having to manually track session timings every day.
REQHs and REQLs — Equal Highs and Lows
This script detects Relatively Equal Highs and Lows (REQHs/REQLs), which are often used by institutions as stop-run targets.
It’s not just looking for copy-paste double tops or bottoms — it uses a tolerance-based algorithm that checks for clusters of similar highs or lows over a given time period. These are likely to hold stops and become magnets for price. When you see these on the chart, you’ll know where the “juice” is sitting.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) — Multi-Timeframe
The script automatically plots Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on both:
-Your current chart timeframe
-One or more higher timeframes (like H1 or H4)
These are three-candle gaps that form when price moves aggressively without filling in value. Price often comes back to these areas to rebalance. Seeing both local and higher-timeframe FVGs on your chart gives better context and helps with entries and exits.
The script is optimized so your chart doesn’t get messy — higher timeframe FVGs show up in a cleaner format with visual labels and lighter shading.
SMT Divergence — With Session Logic
This tool includes a real-time SMT divergence detector, based on the behavior of correlated markets like ES vs. NQ.
Here’s how it works:
If ES sweeps a liquidity level (like Asia Low), but NQ doesn’t, the script detects and marks that divergence.
This often signals institutional accumulation or distribution — a high-probability setup.
You won’t have to flip between charts or manually compare — the SMT logic runs automatically and only fires when it matters (at key session levels). It’s a smarter, more focused way to track intermarket divergences.
Daily Highs and Lows — Week-to-Week Structure
The indicator keeps track of the high and low for each day of the week — Monday through Friday — helping you understand how price is evolving across the week.
This helps build a weekly profile:
Did Monday set the high of the week?
Are we sweeping Tuesday’s low on Thursday?
These levels stay visible and labeled, helping you frame daily setups inside the bigger picture.
🕛 Midnight Open & 8:30 AM Open Levels
These two levels are core ICT concepts used to judge whether price is in premium or discount:
Midnight Open (00:00 EST): Used to determine daily bias
New York Open (08:30 EST): Often a launch point for key moves
Both are drawn automatically and extend throughout the day. This helps you align your trades with potential algorithmic bias, especially during NY session volatility.
⏰ 9:45 AM Vertical Marker — Macro Time Reminder
The script draws a subtle vertical line at 9:45 AM EST, which is the start of the NY AM macro session — one of the most likely times to see setups play out.
This is more than just a timer — it’s a visual cue that something important might be setting up soon, especially if you’re already watching SMT, FVGs, or liquidity zones from earlier.
How It All Connects — A Workflow, Not a Mashup
Every feature in this script is connected to the same goal: helping you trade with the Smart Money.
Here’s how the pieces work together:
Session levels → potential stop hunts
Equal highs/lows → targets
FVGs → entry points
SMT divergence → confirmation or warning
Daily highs/lows → Weekly structure frames bias
Open levels → premium vs. discount
Macro line → timing clue for execution
It’s built to help you flow with price action and trade the story, not just random signals.
Why It’s Closed Source — and Original
This script is closed-source because it contains:
A proprietary system for real-time SMT logic (with intermarket sweep detection)
Multi-timeframe FVG detection that auto-filters overlaps
Smart equal-high/low detection using range-based clustering
Optimized UI that shows a lot without overwhelming the chart
There are no moving averages, no public-domain indicators, and no mashup of standard tools. Everything here is purpose-built for traders who follow ICT strategies.
Let us know how we can improve!
Advanced Market Structure & Order Blocks (fadi)Advanced Market Structure & Order Blocks indicator provides a new approach to understanding price action using ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts related to candle blocks to analyze the market behavior and eliminate much of the noise created by the price action.
This indicator is not intended to provide trade signals, it is designed to provide the traders with to support their trading strategies and add clarity where possible.
There are currently three main elements to this indicator:
Market Structure
Order Blocks
Liquidity Voids
Market Structure
In trading, market structure is often identified by observing higher highs and higher lows. An uptrend is characterized by a series of higher highs, where each peak surpasses the previous one, and higher lows, where each trough is higher than the preceding one. Conversely, a downtrend is marked by lower highs and lower lows.
Other indicators usually determine these peaks by calculating the highest or lowest levels within a predefined number of candles. For example, identifying the highest price level within the last 15 candles and marking it as a higher high or a lower high. While this approach offers some structure to price action, it can be arbitrary and random due to price fluctuations and the lack of proper structure analysis beyond finding the highest peaks and valleys within candle ranges.
In his 2022 mentorship, episode 12, ICT introduced an alternative approach focusing on three-candle pivots called Short Term High and Low (STH/STL), which are then used to calculate the Intermediate Term High and Low (ITH/ITL), and in turn, the Long Term High and Low (LTH/LTL). ICT’s approach provides better structure than the traditional method mentioned above. However, it can be confusing and difficult to track. There are great indicators that track and label ICT’s levels, but traders still find it challenging to follow and understand.
The Advanced Market Structure indicator takes a unique approach by analyzing candle formations, using ICT concepts, to identify possible turning points that mimic a real trader’s analysis of price action as closely as possible. However, it should be expected that Market Makers may use market manipulation to induce traders to make failed trades, and no tooling can eliminate these situations.
Advanced Market Structure tracks true Peaks and Valleys as they form, confirms them, and marks the chart with corresponding labels using traditional labeling methods (HH/HL/LH/LL), as such labeling makes it easier for traders to follow and understand. The indicator also draws levels to help identify possible liquidity areas and trade targets.
The indicator uses different calculation methods for the different type of market structure length, however all calculations are based on the same ICT candle blocks concepts.
Market Structure Settings
Other than the display settings, there are four (4) settings, mainly under the Level Settings section.
Allow Nested Candles
This option is only available on the Short Market Structure due to the methods used in calculating highs and lows. When used, the indicator will attempt to detect smaller fluctuations in price by tracking smaller candle moves, if any.
Level Settings
Level Settings allows the trader to decide two main calculations:
1. A new pivot point will form when a candle’s is crossed by the following candle’s
2. For a liquidity sweep and marking a level as mitigated, a candle’s must cross that level
Order Blocks
ICT (Inner Circle Trader) defines an Order Block as the last down-closing candle, or series of candles, before a significant upward price move or the last up-closing candle, or series of candles, before a significant downward price move. These key price levels, marked by substantial buy or sell orders from institutional traders or "smart money," create a block or zone on the price chart. When the price revisits these levels, it often leads to a strong market reaction. Order Blocks can consist of one or multiple consecutive candles of the same color, signaling areas of significant buying or selling interest. ICT's approach to Order Blocks provides traders with a structured method to identify potential areas of support or resistance, where price movements are more likely to change direction. Although ICT has shared some criteria for identifying Order Blocks publicly, the full details are reserved for his upcoming books. This indicator leverages the publicly available information to provide traders with valuable insights into these crucial price levels.
The Advanced Market Structure indicator is designed to be highly flexible, allowing traders to define their own combination of rules for identifying Order Blocks, thus customizing it to fit their unique trading strategies.
Order Block Configuration
Can be nested
An Order Block is defined as the last down candle or candles before a strong move higher, and vice versa for bearish Order Blocks. However, larger-than-usual candles resulting from news events or price action may not qualify as Order Blocks and can mute any Order Block within their range.
The "Can be nested" flag ensures that each Order Block is treated as an independent entity, even if it appears within the body of another Order Block.
Forms at swing point
Order Blocks formed at swing points typically have higher probabilities but are less frequent, assuming the same rules are applied. Additionally, Order Blocks at swing points may become Breaker and Mitigation blocks if they fail, providing more trading opportunities.
Forms a simple pivot point
A simple pivot point corresponds to ICT Short Term High and Low (STH/STL). Order Blocks using simple pivot points can occur in the middle of a move, not just at swing points. These are useful for identifying IOFED setups and supporting blocks that can bolster the price move.
Causes Market Structure Shift
Order Blocks that result in a break above or below a short swing point can help narrow down target order blocks, but they are less frequent. An Order Block causing a break above or below a pivot point does not necessarily indicate a strong Order Block. For example, an Order Block formed at a Lower Low is more likely to fail in a downtrend.
A clean close above order block
When the first candle breaks above an Order Block and closes above its high, this indicates a stronger Order Block. On the other hand, if a candle merely wicks through the Order Block without a solid close above it, it suggests a weaker Order Block. This may indicate hesitation or an impending reversal, as the wick represents a temporary and unsustained price movement.
Has displacement more than X the body
While some traders may capitalize on the initial break above an Order Block's CISD level, others prefer to focus on the return to an Order Block after displacement. Displacement is determined by the body size of the Order Block, and an Order Block cannot be tested until this level has been achieved.
Has a Fair Value Gap
When an Order Block is combined with a Fair Value Gap (FVG), it signifies a strong Order Block. The Fair Value Gap indicates a strong price movement away from the Order Block.
Has a liquidity void
A Liquidity Void occurs when two consecutive candles of the same color do not overlap, creating a gap similar to a Fair Value Gap, but involving one or more middle candles. Liquidity Voids can be utilized in combination with, or as an alternative to, the displacement setting.
Maximum number of OBs
The maximum number of Order Blocks to display.
Mitigated at block’s
An Order Block is considered mitigated when price reaches one of the main Order Block levels.
Liquidity Void
Liquidity Void refers to areas on a price chart where there is one-sided trading activity. This phenomenon occurs when the price of an asset moves sharply in one direction, leaving gaps where two consecutive candles of the same color do not overlap. These gaps can comprise one or more middle candles and indicates a pronounced lack of trading within that price range. Liquidity Voids are important because they highlight areas of minimal resistance, where price is more likely to return to fill the void and balance the market.
Liquidity Void vs Fair Value Gap
While both concepts are related to gaps in price action, they are distinct. A Fair Value Gap is a specific three-candle pattern where the middle candle creates a gap between the first and third candles. In contrast, a Liquidity Void represents a broader area on the chart where there is little to no trading activity, often encompassing multiple candles and indicating a more pronounced imbalance between buy and sell orders.
A FVG can be part of a Liquidity Void, a Liquidity Void can exist without necessarily including an FVG. Both concepts highlight areas of minimal resistance and potential price movement, but they differ in their formation and implications.
Advanced Market Structure and Order Blocks indicator focus on liquidity voids since a liquidity void can substitute for a FVG and it is usually less addressed by other indicators.
Morning RangeOverview
The Morning Range Indicator highlights the high and low of the market session from 6 AM to 10AM, providing key levels for potential breakout trades. The box dynamically updates in real-time, extending until 4 PM, and adjusts color based on price action.
This tool is ideal for traders looking to identify breakout opportunities and visualize key intraday price ranges.

Once 10 AM passes, the high and low are locked in and will not change.
Box Extends Until 4 PM
The session box remains visible throughout the trading day.
It provides a visual reference for potential breakout zones.
Dynamic Box Coloring
Gray (Neutral): Neither high nor low is broken.
Green: Only the high is broken before 4 PM.
Red: Only the low is broken before 4 PM.
Yellow: Both high and low are broken before 4 PM.
Live Updating Box
The box appears as soon as the session begins at 6 AM.
It dynamically updates the high and low until 10 AM.
Alerts for Breakouts
This indicator includes built-in alert conditions, so you can set up TradingView alerts without modifying the script.

How to Use This Indicator
Watch for breakouts above/below the morning range as potential trade opportunities.
Combine with volume, momentum indicators, or footprint charts for confirmation.
Use the box color to visually assess whether price action is bullish (green), bearish (red), or ranging (gray).
Swing Breakout System (SBS)The Swing Breakout Sequence (SBS) is a trading strategy that focuses on identifying high-probability entry points based on a specific pattern of price swings. This indicator will identify these patterns, then draw lines and labels to show confirmation.
How To Use:
The indicator will show both Bullish and Bearish SBS patterns.
Bullish Pattern is made up of 6 points: Low (0), HH (1), LL (2 | but higher than initial Low), New HH (3), LL (5), LL again (5)
Bearish Patten is made up of 6 points: High (0), LL (1), HH (2 | but lower than initial high), New LL (3), HH (5), HH again (5)
A label with an arrow will appear at the end, showing the completion of a successful sequence
Idea behind the strategy:
The idea behind this strategy, is the accumulation and then manipulation of liquidity throughout the sequence. For example, during SBS sequence, liquidity is accumulated during step (2), then price will push away to make a new high/low (step 3), after making a minor new high/low, price will retrace breaking the key level set up in step (2). This is price manipulating taking liquidity from behind high/low from step (2). After taking liquidity price the idea is price will continue in the original direction.
Step 0 - Setting up initial direction
Step 1 - Setting up initial direction
Step 2 - Key low/high establishing liquidity
Step 3 - Failed New high/low
Step 4 - Taking liquidity from step (2)
Step 5 - Taking liquidity from step 2 and 4
Pattern Detection:
- Uses pivot high/low points to identify swing patterns
- Stores 6 consecutive swing points in arrays
- Identifies two types of patterns:
1. Bullish Pattern: A specific sequence of higher lows and higher highs
2. Bearish Pattern: A specific sequence of lower highs and lower lows
Note: Because the indicator is identifying a perfect sequence of 6 steps, set ups may not appear frequently.
Visualization:
- Draws connecting lines between swing points
- Labels each point numerically (optional)
- Shows breakout arrows (↑ for bullish, ↓ for bearish)
- Generates alerts on valid breakouts
User Input Settings:
Core Parameters
1. Pivot Lookback Period (default: 2)
- Controls how many bars to look back/forward for pivot point detection
- Higher values create fewer but more significant pivot points
2. Minimum Pattern Height % (default: 0.1)
- Minimum required height of the pattern as a percentage of price
- Filters out insignificant patterns
3. Maximum Pattern Width (bars) (default: 50)
- Maximum allowed width of the pattern in bars
- Helps exclude patterns that form over too long a period
HTF Hi-Lo Zones [CHE]HTF Hi-Lo Zones Indicator
The HTF Hi-Lo Zones Indicator is a Pine Script tool designed to highlight important high and low values from a selected higher timeframe. It provides traders with clear visual zones where price activity has reached significant points, helping in decision-making by identifying potential support and resistance levels. This indicator is customizable, allowing users to select the resolution type, control the visualization of session ranges, and even display detailed information about the chosen timeframe.

- Manual: Enables manual input for custom resolution settings.
- Each resolution type ensures flexibility to suit different trading styles and strategies.
2. Data Fetching for High and Low Values:
- The indicator retrieves the current high and low values for the selected higher timeframe using `request.security`.
- It also calculates the lowest and highest values over a configurable lookback period, providing insights into significant price movements within the chosen timeframe.
3. Session High and Low Detection:
- The indicator detects whether the current value represents a new session high or low by comparing the highest and lowest values with the current data.
- This is crucial for identifying breakouts or significant turning points during a session.
4. Visual Representation:
- When a new session high or low is detected:
- Range Zones: A colored box marks the session's high-to-low range.
- Labels: Optional labels indicate "New High" or "New Low" for clarity.

Weekly Opening Range and Previous Data for FuturesThis indicator will not predict future price action.
This indicator is a time based range tool. These types of tools are great to use when there is not any historical data to look back on (as in all time highs/lows). The user can use this indicator to measure distributions, use deviations of the range to identify support/resistance levels, and see how historical price action influences current price action. This indicator is unique because it uses the price range from the open of the futures market on Sunday 18:00 America/New York to the open of the Bond Market 8:00 America/New York as the range for all calculations.
This indicator collects the multiple points of data from each day of the week, and gives the user many options on how to use the data that is collected. The amount of data collected is based on the time frame of the chart (best used on a 15 minute chart), but is limited to 30 minute charts.
Data Collected:
Opening Range for the week
High of Each Day
Low of Each Day
Close of Each Day
Initially the range is plotted on the chart as a box, when the Bond market opens the high/low/mid is plotted, as well as the current week open and previous week close.
How the data is used.
Intraday: Monday does not have a previous day to pull data on, so all data for Monday is intraday data. When a new high is made, the indicator will search all previous data in the lookback period for the current day , find all highs that are within a set variance (determined by the user), and plot the corresponding lows from the matching days. It will do the same for new lows that are made, with corresponding historical highs. All of these levels are plotted on the chart, as well as the Average High, Average Low. If price moves beyond either Average, the Average of all days that distributed higher than the Average is plotted on the chart as Min/Max Average.
Previous Day Data: Tuesday - Friday. After the close of the day, the user has the option to choose either the High, Low, or Close of that day to find previous data that matches within a variance determined by the user; or an option to find the n closest matches (up to 20). That data is then matched to the corresponding next day data and plotted on the chart as a box. Example: Monday closes at +1 Deviation (Dev) of the Weekly Opening Range (WOR). The user sets the variance at 0.5 (0.5 Dev of the WOR), the indicator will search the lookback period for all Mondays that closed between 1.25 Dev and 0.75 Dev of the WOR. The matching Mondays will then be matched to their corresponding Tuesdays and the data for the High and Low from those Tuesdays will be placed on the chart as a box overlaying the current Tuesday. Each match is numbered so that corresponding Highs and Lows of each historical day can be identified. The same can be done for either the High or Low of the Previous Day.
The indicator has a table that can be shown.
Data shown in table:
Current Extension of the WOR
Maximum Extension of the WOR
Average WOR in %
Current WOR in %
Average Range for the day in % based on data set
Current Range for the day in %
Number of days in the data set
Number of Previous Day Matches
Variance for previous day data
Number of Intraday High Matches
Number of Intraday Low Matches
Variance for Intraday Matches
The table as well as all lines and boxes have the option of being shown or not, as well as have their settings customized to fit the users chart layout.
As with any indicator, do not let the data shown change your trading model. Past performance is not indicative to future performance.
UVR Crypto TrendINDICATOR OVERVIEW: UVR CRYPTO TREND
The UVR Crypto Trend indicator is a custom-built tool designed specifically for cryptocurrency markets, utilizing advanced volatility, momentum, and trend-following techniques. It aims to identify trend reversals and provide buy and sell signals by analyzing multiple factors, such as price volatility(UVR), RSI (Relative Strength Index), CMF (Chaikin Money Flow), and EMA (Exponential Moving Average). The indicator is optimized for CRYPTO MARKETS only.
KEY FEATURES AND HOW IT WORKS
Volatility Analysis with UVR
The UVR (Ultimate Volatility Rate) is a proprietary calculation that measures market volatility by comparing significant price extremes and smoothing the data over time.
Purpose: UVR aims to reduce noise in low-volatility environments and highlight significant movements during higher-volatility periods. While it strives to improve filtering in low-volatility conditions, it does not guarantee perfect performance, making it a balanced and adaptable tool for dynamic markets like cryptocurrency.
HOW UVR (ULTIMATE VOLATILITY RATE) IS CALCULATED
UVR is calculated using a method that ensures precise measurement of market volatility by comparing price extremes across consecutive candles:
Volatility Components:
Two values are calculated to represent potential price fluctuations:
The absolute difference between the current candle's high and the previous candle's low:
Volatility Component 1=∣High−Low ∣
The absolute difference between the previous candle's high and the current candle's low:
Volatility Component 2=∣High −Low∣
Volatility Ratio:
The larger of the two components is selected as the Volatility Ratio, ensuring UVR captures the most significant movement:
Volatility Ratio=max(Volatility Component 1,Volatility Component 2)
Smoothing with SMMA:
To stabilize the volatility calculation, the Volatility Ratio is smoothed using a Smoothed Moving Average (SMMA) over a user-defined period (e.g., 14 candles):
UVR=(UVR(Previous)×(Period−1)+Volatility Ratio)/Period
This calculation ensures UVR adapts dynamically to market conditions, focusing on significant price movements while filtering out noise.
RSI FOR MOMENTUM DETECTION
RSI (Relative Strength Index) identifies overbought and oversold conditions.
Trend Confirmation at the 50 Level
RSI values crossing above 50 signal the potential start of an upward trend.
RSI values crossing below 50 indicate the potential start of a downward trend.
Key Reversals at Extreme Levels
RSI detects trend reversals at overbought (>70) and oversold (<30) levels.
For example:
Overbought Trend Reversal: RSI >70 followed by bearish price action signals a potential downtrend.
Oversold Trend Reversal: RSI <30 with bullish confirmation signals a potential uptrend.
Rare Extreme RSI Readings
Extreme levels, such as RSI <12 (oversold) or RSI >88 (overbought), are used to identify rare yet powerful reversals.
---HOW IT DIFFERS FROM OTHER INDICATORS---
Using UVR High and Low Values
The Ultimate Volatility Rate (UVR) focuses on analyzing the high and low price ranges of the market to measure volatility.
Unlike traditional trend indicators that rely primarily on momentum or moving average crossovers, UVR leverages price extremes to better identify trend reversals.
This approach ensures fewer false signals during low-volatility phases and more accurate trend detection during high-volatility conditions.
UVR as the Core Component
The indicator is fundamentally built around UVR as the primary filter, while supporting tools like RSI (momentum detection), CMF (volume confirmation), and EMA (trend validation) complement its functionality.
By integrating these additional components, the indicator provides a multidimensional analysis rather than relying solely on a single approach.
Dynamic Adaptation to Volatility
UVR dynamically adjusts to market conditions, striving to improve filtering in low-volatility phases. While not flawless, this approach minimizes false signals and adapts more effectively to varying levels of market activity.
Trend Clouds for Visual Guidance
UVR-based dynamic clouds visually mark high and low price areas, highlighting potential consolidation or retracement zones.
These clouds serve as guides for setting stop-loss or take-profit levels, offering clear risk management strategies.
BUY AND SELL SIGNAL LOGIC
BUY CONDITIONS
Momentum-Based Buy-Entry
RSI >50, CMF >0, and the close price is above EMA50.
The price difference between open and close exceeds a threshold based on UVR.
Oversold Reversal
RSI <30 and CMF >0 with a strong bullish candle (close > open and UVR-based sensitivity filter).
Breakout Confirmation
The price breaks above a previously identified resistance, with conditions for RSI and CMF supporting the breakout.
Reversal from Oversold RSI Extreme
RSI <12 on the previous candle with a strong rebound on the current candle with UVR confirmation filter.
SELL CONDITIONS
Momentum-Based Sell-Entry
RSI <50, CMF <0, and the close price is below EMA50.
The price difference between open and close exceeds the UVR threshold.
Overbought Reversal
RSI >70 with bearish price action (open > close and UVR-based sensitivity filter).
Breakdown Confirmation
The price breaks below a previously identified support, with RSI and CMF supporting the breakdown.
Reversal from Overbought RSI Extreme
RSI >88 on the previous candle with a bearish confirmation on the current candle with UVR confirmation filter.
BUY AND SELL SIGNALS VISUALIZATION
The UVR Crypto Trend Indicator visually represents buy and sell conditions using dynamic plots, making it easier for traders to interpret and act on the signals. Below is an explanation of the visual representation:
Buy Signals and Visualization
Signal Trigger:
A buy signal is generated when one of the defined Buy Conditions is met (e.g., RSI >50, CMF >0, price above EMA50).
Visual Representation:
A blue upward arrow appears at the candle where the buy condition is triggered.
A blue cloud forms above the price candles, representing the strength of the bullish trend. The cloud dynamically adapts to market volatility, using the UVR calculation to mark support zones or consolidation levels.
Purpose of the Blue Cloud:
It acts as a visual guide for price movements and stay horizontal when the trend is not moving up
Sell Signals and Visualization
Signal Trigger:
A sell signal is generated when one of the defined Sell Conditions is met (e.g., RSI <50, CMF <0, price below EMA50).
Visual Representation:
A red downward arrow appears at the candle where the sell condition is triggered.
A red cloud forms below the price candles, representing the strength of the bearish trend. Like the blue cloud, it uses the UVR calculation to dynamically mark resistance zones or potential retracement levels.
Purpose of the Red Cloud:
It acts as a visual guide for price movements and stay horizontal when the trend is not moving down.
CONCLUSION
The UVR Crypto Trend indicator provides a powerful tool for trend reversal detection by combining volatility analysis, momentum confirmation, and trend-following techniques. Its unique use of the Ultimate Volatility Rate (UVR) as a core element, supported by proven indicators like RSI, CMF, and EMA, ensures reliable and actionable signals tailored for the crypto market's dynamic nature. By leveraging UVR’s high and low price range analysis, it achieves a level of precision that traditional indicators lack, making it a high-performing system for cryptocurrency traders.
Trading Sessions with Highs and LowsTrading Sessions with Highs and Lows is designed to visually highlight specific trading sessions on the chart, providing traders with key insights into market behavior during these time periods. Here’s a detailed explanation of how the indicator works:
Key Features
1. Session Boxes:
• The indicator plots colored boxes on the chart to represent the price range of defined trading sessions.
• Each box spans the session’s start and end times and encapsulates the high and low prices during that period.
• Two trading sessions are defined by default:
• USA Trading Session: 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM (New York Time).
• UK Trading Session: 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM (London Time).
2. Session Labels:
• The name of the session (e.g., “USA” or “UK”) is displayed above the session box for clear identification.
3. High and Low Markers:
• Markers are added to the chart at the session’s high and low points:
• High Marker: A green label indicating the session high.
• Low Marker: A red label indicating the session low.
4. Dynamic Reset:
• After the session ends, the session high and low values are reset to na to prepare for the next trading day.
5. Customizable Background Colors:
• Each session’s box has a distinct, semi-transparent background color for better visual separation.
How It Works
1. Core Functionality:
• A function, plot_box, takes the session name, start time, end time, and background color as input.
• It calculates whether the current time is within the session.
• During the session:
• It tracks the session’s highest and lowest prices.
• It identifies the bars where the high and low occurred.
• At the session’s end:
• It plots a box on the chart covering the session’s time and price range.
• Labels are created for the session name and its high/low points.
2. Session Timing:
• Timestamps for the USA and UK trading sessions are calculated using the timestamp function with respective time zones.
3. Visual Elements:
• The box.new function draws the session boxes on the chart.
• The label.new function creates session name and high/low labels.
Usage
• Overlay Mode: The indicator is applied directly on the price chart (overlay=true), making it easy to visualize session-specific price behavior.
• Trading Strategy:
• Identify session-specific support and resistance levels.
• Observe price action trends during key trading periods.
• Align trading decisions with session dynamics.
Customization
While the indicator is preset for the USA and UK trading sessions, it can be easily modified:
1. Add/Remove Sessions: Define additional sessions by providing their start and end times.
2. Change Colors: Update the background_color in the plot_box calls to use different colors for sessions.
3. Adjust Time Zones: Replace the current time zones with others relevant to your trading style.
Visualization Example
• USA Session:
• Time: 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM (New York Time).
• Box Color: Semi-transparent orange.
• UK Session:
• Time: 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM (London Time).
• Box Color: Semi-transparent green.
Why Use This Indicator?
1. Market Awareness: Easily spot price behavior during high-liquidity trading periods.
2. Trend Analysis: Analyze how sessions overlap or affect each other.
3. Session Boundaries: Use session high/low levels as dynamic support and resistance zones.
This indicator is an essential tool for intraday and swing traders who want to align their strategies with key market timings.
Structure Pilot - Z&Z [Wang Indicators]Structure Pilot Zone & Zil is a complete suite of structure driven features that's build around pattern that can be visible around any timeframe.
Built in collaboration with Dave Teaches,
All these tools were shaped and combined together as the only toolkit Structure & DTFX traders want to have !
▫️ Structures & Zones ▫️
Zones are drawn when a break of structure (new high or low being created) or a market reversal happens.
It will highlight the last valid down move before a new high for bullish zones and the last valid up move before a new low for bearish zones.
These zones are used to analyze the market trend and to make entries into the market trend once the price retraces into these zones.
For example, with the latest bullish zones drawn in green for LTF zones and in blue for HTF zones, when the price retraces into this zone, there is a strong probability that the price will turn around to provide a buying opportunity all the way to the top of the zone or even higher.
These buying opportunities generally occur at specific retracement levels in the 30%, 50% and 70% zones, automatically represented by broken lines in the zones when they are created.
Example with bullish zones :
The aim with these zones is to find places on the chart where it's best to buy or sell, in order to take the biggest possible move while minimizing your risk.
Indeed, if the price is rising and a bullish zone has been created, I don't want to buy on the highs, preferring to wait for a retracement in my bullish zone to buy lower and reduce my risk, as the invalidation of the current trend will be found below the last protected low under the bullish zone drawn in blue for the HTF and in green for the LTF. Conversely, if the price is falling and a bearish zone has been created, I don't want to sell at the bottom. I'd rather wait for a retracement in the bearish zone to sell higher and reduce my risk, as the invalidation of the current trend will this time be above the last protected high above the bearish zone drawn in orange for the HTF and red for the LTF.
Example with bearish zones :
When it comes to market structure, it's good to know that zones recur within the same trend at a frequency of between 3 and 6 before there's a trend reversal.
So, after a certain number of successive zones, you can expect a reversal or the last protected high or low to be breached. The indicator automatically counts the number of successive zones, so you can keep track of the market and avoid surprises.
The zones are generated through the structure length. It can be increased to display larger (and more important) zones.
As we recommend keeping the default value (20) for new traders, experienced traders will find some success with other settings depending on their strategies.
Structure Pilot also provides auto HTF Zones, which is particularly useful to have a macro vision of the market.
Settings:
Swing types: Bullish only, Bearish only, both, or none
Structure length
Swing count: useful when it comes to tracking Trend strenght in any given time frame
Show Zones: Display boxes with 30%, 50%, and 70% fibs
Show HTF Zones: Display HTF zones with the same retracement configuration as the regular zones
Show 30%, 50% and 70%: Enable/disable these options to show or hide the corresponding fibs.
Box visibility, Line width & Line style: Style configuration for the zone
All settings can be activated or deactivated in the indicator parameters to suit individual needs and preferences.
30% Level : This is often considered a shallow retracement. If prices pull back to this level after an uptrend and flip in a lower timeframe, traders might view it as a strong sign of continued bullish momentum. Conversely, after a downtrend, this level could act as a temporary resistance where sellers might re-enter after a flip in a lower timeframe.
50% Level : This level is seen as a balance point or midpoint in the price move. A retracement to 50% can indicate a strong trend change or continuation.
70% Level : A retracement this deep can signal that the market might be losing steam or that the previous trend could be weakening. If the price bounces off this level, it might suggest that the trend is still in control but needed a more significant correction before moving further in its original direction.
We as structure traders prefer to take entry out of The 50% or when price retrace past it
there will be something at the level i'm looking for price to reverse from either some specific candles or imbalances.
Advanced traders might combine these levels with other tools or chart patterns that we bundle in this indicator.
▫️ ZIL ▫️
The ZIL Indicator is designed to automate the process of identifying key structural levels in the market and applying Fibonacci retracements when a significant price break occurs.
The indicator detects when a market structure (high or low) is broken and a candle closes below the previous low or above the previous high, indicating a potential trend shift or continuation.
• Tracks the break of structural lows or highs and waits for a confirmation candle that closes above or bellow the candle that set the new low.
Automated Fibonacci Retracement:
• Once the structure break is confirmed, the indicator automatically plots a Fibonacci retracement between:
• The high of the last bullish move (before the new low is set) or the low of the last bearish move (before the new high is set)
• The newly formed low after the structure break or the newly formed high after the structure break
Fibonacci levels plotted with colors :
• -0.27 : Dark red - Stop loss
• 0 : white - The new high/low - Potential entry
• 0.3, Orange 0.5, Light green 0.7: Green : Levels - Partial and take profit zones
• 1.15 pale blue - for your runner
We may long the retracement when the price is comming from a bearish zone using the ZIL to manage
Example :
Multi-Timeframe Support:
• Using the option "HTF ZIL" will display ZIL on higher timeframe (corresponding to the HTF Zones) on your charts to help traders find structural breaks and Fibonacci setups in both short-term and long-term markets.
HTF ZIL is really usefull to manage trades if the regular ZIL target get ran through
Wang use case :
HTF zill level are used when the small zill get ran through
▫️ Opening Range Tracker ▫️
The Opening Range Tracker is designed to help traders identify and track the opening range of a specified time period, specifically starting with the 144-minute candle between 8:24 AM and 10:48 AM. (default value) The indicator highlights this range and automatically plots key levels (30%, 50%, 70%) to provide potential strong reaction areas for trading. The time period for the opening range is fully customizable, allowing users to adjust it according to their strategy.
Opening range should be seen and used as a classic zone. If we trade above or below it price tend to come back into it and bounce of of the One or multiple level...
classic 30/50/70.
• Customizable Opening Range: Adapt the indicator to any market or session by changing the opening range time window.
• Precise Levels for Trading: The 30%, 50%, and 70% levels provide key zones where price may react, helping traders define entries, exits, or stop loss placements.
• Visual Clarity: The range box and levels make it easy to see the important price areas during the opening range and the rest of the trading session. If we range a lot in the opening range, we may range for the rest of the day. We should keep that in mind to avoid taking wrong decisions.
its basically a large zone that's we have seen often time price rejects from the level in it
Daily Reset: Each trading day resets the opening range, giving traders fresh data and new opportunities to capitalize on market movements.
Structure Pilot is built for beginner and experienced. It provides the tools to the traders that want to learn, understand, and trade efficiently within the principles of structure trading.
BOS TRADER [v 1.0] [Influxum]The name of the tool, BOS Trader, comes from the abbreviation BOS, which stands for Break Of Structure. In simple terms, this tool identifies situations where a change in market structure occurs after liquidity has been grabbed. Following the structural change, it looks for a point where the balance between buyers and sellers will be tested, potentially continuing the price movement in the direction of the structural break.
The goal of this tool is to identify areas where a trader can look for potential entry opportunities based on their entry rules and filters. In our own research, we found that while this tool is not a standalone strategy, it provides a statistical advantage that stems from the nature of the market itself. If you expect the market to reverse at a certain price level against a short-term, medium-term, or long-term trend, that reversal must logically begin with a change in structure – i.e., its break. BOS Trader then highlights the zone where you can expect a strong reaction from traders speculating on the continuation of price in the direction of the break.
Another important piece of the puzzle is the concept of liquidity. Liquidity grabs are generally considered by traders to be events that can trigger market direction changes. That's why BOS Trader is complemented with multiple ways to identify liquidity in the market from a Price Action perspective. We have explored the liquidity concept in depth in our other tools – the Liquidity Tool and Liquidity Strategy Tester – so we won’t go into too much detail on liquidity settings here.
🟪 Pivots
Liquidity can be found beyond pivot extremes – the highest candles in a series of candles. The pivot liquidity setting specifies how many candles must be before and after the pivot candle with a lower high for a pivot high or a higher low for a pivot low. A pivot high is the local highest point of the last 31 candles (15 before the pivot candle, the pivot candle itself, and 15 after). Another option is to set the time period in which the pivot extreme must occur. For example, you can differentiate between pivot highs of the Asian or London session.
🟪 % Percent Change
This setting is based on the well-known Zig Zag indicator and confirms swing highs or swing lows when there is a certain percentage change in price. This helps filter out noise that can occur when the market consolidates and randomly creates pivot highs or lows that aren’t significant.
🟪 Session High/Low
Many popular strategies are based on liquidity defined as the price range of a specific trading session. This doesn't have to be London, Asia, or New York sessions, but could be, for instance, the first hour of the New York session, and so on.
🟪 Day High/Low, Week High/Low, Month High/Low
As the name suggests, liquidity is often defined by the high/low of the previous day, week, or month. These price levels are watched by many market participants, and it's reasonable to expect reactions at these levels. That’s why we included this option in the BOS tool.
Tip for Traders
To avoid common issues with setting the correct session time, we have added the BG option to the tool – the ability to display a background for the configured trading session. This makes it easy to verify that your trading session is set correctly in relation to your time zone.
Delete grabbed liquidity
If a liquidity level is breached by price, it becomes invalid. For those who prefer to keep their charts clean and uncluttered, there is an option to delete grabbed liquidity. This way, only untraded, valid liquidity lines will be visible on the chart.
Bars after liquidity grab
A liquidity grab should be a significant event that triggers a reaction from market participants. To ensure this is a real response to liquidity rather than random market behavior, we added a time test to the BOS tool. A structural break must occur within a specified time after the liquidity grab. You can define this time in the tool as the number of bars after which the structural break is still considered valid following the liquidity grab.
🟪 AOI (Area of Interest) Settings
Initially, it's important to note that there are two main options for setting the behavior of the AOI. The first option is to fix its duration by the number of bars – Duration, and the second is to keep the AOI valid until it is traded through – Extended.
Duration
Since we expect a quick reaction to the liquidity grab, we also expect a fast pullback to the AOI and a swift response of traders. Our research has shown that the strongest reactions typically occur within a maximum of 15 bars from the formation of the AOI (fractally across timeframes). Therefore, this value is set as the default. However, we recommend considering not just the speed of the reaction but also its intensity. After the set number of bars, the AOI stops extending further.
Extended
We have noticed that price has a tendency to return to the AOI even after a longer period and react again. For this reason, we included the option in the BOS tool to extend the AOI into the future, with the ability to freely adjust the Max AOI Length.
🟪 AOI Size Mode
There are two options for setting the size of the AOI. Either it can be calculated as a percentage of the swing size (% of swing) in which the structural break occurred (the default setting is 30%), or you can set a different concept for the AOI size. For example, the well-known Optimal Trade Entry model. Custom values can be set in the FIBO Levels option, where you can define either preferred Fibonacci values or values based on your own criteria.
🟪 Trading Session (signals + alerts + visibility)
The main goal of our tools is to make it easier for traders to identify patterns and opportunities in the market and allow them to be alerted to their occurrence. The time for AOI plotting after a liquidity grab is combined into a single Trading Session function. This controls both the AOI plotting and when the tool will send alerts. All of this is aimed at helping traders avoid spending the entire day in front of their monitors, waiting for trading opportunities. Here, too, you can use the BG feature to plot a background on the chart showing the current session.
🟪 Trading within session range
We found that some traders have difficulty navigating the many AOIs plotted during times when the market consolidates and creates numerous false breakouts. Therefore, we included an option in the BOS tool to track only structural changes at the price extremes of the current day and trading session. The tool will not plot structural changes for internal liquidity grabs (within the session range), but only for external liquidity grabs (highest highs and lowest lows of the session or liquidity from previous days).
Visuals
The BOS tool is, of course, supplemented with the option to customize the appearance of all its components according to your preferences.

Enhanced MACD Swing Analysis
Overview
The Enhanced MACD Swing Analysis script is a technical indicator for TradingView that enhances the traditional MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) with additional visual tools to identify swing highs and swing lows. This indicator is designed to help traders visualize momentum shifts and determine market entry/exit points with greater accuracy. It provides dynamic color-changing histograms based on customizable thresholds and draws swing high/low lines directly on the chart for easy analysis.
Features
MACD Calculation: The script includes the traditional MACD calculation, with adjustable parameters for fast length, slow length, and signal smoothing.
Swing High/Low Detection: Automatically detects swing highs and lows based on a user-defined lookback period and displays the values in the top-right corner of the chart.
Dynamic Color-Changing Histogram: The histogram colors change dynamically based on the MACD ratio, allowing traders to easily identify different levels of momentum. The colors are customizable, with a variety of shades for both positive and negative momentum.
Swing High/Low Lines: Draws lines to visually indicate swing highs and lows, extending these lines to the right for better visual guidance.
Parameters
快速長度 (MACD Fast Length): The number of periods for the fast moving average. Default is 12.
慢速長度 (MACD Slow Length): The number of periods for the slow moving average. Default is 26.
信號平滑 (MACD Signal Smoothing): The number of periods for smoothing the MACD signal line. Default is 9.
擺動回看範圍 (Swing Lookback Range): The number of bars to look back for detecting swing highs and lows. Default is 25.
顏色變化比率 (Color Change Ratios): Comma-separated values for defining the ratios at which histogram colors change. These thresholds allow users to customize when the histogram changes its color intensity based on the MACD ratio. Default values are provided.
How It Works
MACD Calculation: The script calculates the MACD using the user-defined fast and slow lengths, along with a signal line for smoothing.
Histogram Color Change: Based on the difference between the MACD line and the signal line, a ratio is calculated to determine the intensity of the histogram's color. The color changes depending on user-specified thresholds to visually indicate shifts in momentum.
Swing High/Low Detection: The script looks back over a specified number of bars to detect swing highs and lows, which are then plotted on the chart using lines that extend to the right for easier identification.
How to Use
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart to visualize MACD momentum with enhanced clarity.
Adjust Parameters: Customize the parameters to suit your trading style. You can adjust the MACD lengths, swing lookback range, and color change thresholds as needed.
Interpret the Signals: Use the color-coded histogram to gauge momentum strength and direction. The swing high/low lines help identify key levels for potential market reversals or entry/exit points.
Practical Applications
Momentum Analysis: Use the color-changing histogram to assess the strength of a trend. Brighter colors indicate stronger momentum, while darker colors suggest weakening trends.
Swing Identification: The swing high and low lines make it easy to identify support and resistance areas where price may reverse.
Entry and Exit Signals: When the histogram color intensity changes, it could be an early indication of a shift in momentum, providing potential buy or sell opportunities.
Customization
This indicator is highly customizable, allowing traders to modify the MACD parameters, swing lookback range, and color change thresholds. This flexibility makes it suitable for different trading styles, whether you're a day trader, swing trader, or long-term investor.
Time and Price Lines and Zones (fadi)
Draw a red line starting from the open at 9:30
Show dotted lines between 11 and 12 and shade it
Mark the ORB high and low from 9:30 to 10:00 and extend it in orange and shade it
In trading, time and price are two crucial elements that help traders make decisions about buying and selling assets like stocks, commodities, or currencies. Forex or futures traders may prefer to trade during the Asia, London, and New York sessions to increase the probability of price moves. Additionally, traders often focus on key levels on the chart to frame their trades.
The Time and Price Lines and Zones indicator allows traders to set an unlimited number of time- and price-based levels on a chart, with full control over how they are displayed. Traders can simply type in their desired settings, and the indicator will interpret the instructions and plot the levels on the chart.
However, as it is a scripted tool, there are some limitations, and traders should keep their inputs relatively straightforward.
How It Works
In the settings, you type in the time and price levels you'd like to see, along with the timeframes for display. Each new line will render a line, a set of lines, or a price zone within a specific time interval. You can specify starting and ending times, price levels such as highs and lows, and details like color, line style, and thickness.
The following are some settings you can use:
Time
Always required, formatted as 0 to 23 for hours (with 0 representing midnight) and 0 to 59 for minutes. You can specify just a start time or both start and end times to "box" a period.
Examples:
1 ( for 1:00 AM)
13 (for 1:00 PM)
13:50 (for 1:50 PM)
Price
Optional. If no price level is provided, the indicator will treat it as an open time window and draw vertical lines at the specified time intervals.
Color
The indicator recognizes the 17 built-in colors from TradingView ( www.tradingview.com ). You also have the option to override or create your own colors to match your color schema under settings. Silver (light gray) is the default if none is specified.
Line Style
There are three available line styles:
Solid (default)
Dashed
Dotted
Line Thickness
Line thickness can also be controlled with the following options:
Thin (default)
Medium
Thick
Fill or No Fill
When specifying two price levels, or two time periods, you can choose to keep the area between them empty or fill it with a semitransparent color. You can set this by specifying "shade," "shaded," "fill," or "filled."
Extend or Not
There are times, such as with the Open Range Breakout (ORB), where you may want to extend the zone without tracking additional price level changes. You can indicate this by specifying whether you want to extend it or not.
Additional Indicator Settings
Ignore lines that start with a defined character to instruct the indicator to ignore the line. For example, if you want to hide a line without deleting it, add # in front of it (default is #).
Hide Above Will hide all lines and zones above a defined timeframe.
Show Next Area Hours in Advance This will plot lines in advance to the right of the current price action, helping traders recognize upcoming points of interest.
Show Last X Days This controls the clutter on the screen by limiting the display to the most recent X number of days.
Fill Transparency The percentage of transparency applied to the background when a fill is specified.
Examples:
12 to 13 gray area shaded with dotted lines
Will result in two vertical lines, one at 12 noon and one at 1 PM, with the area between them shaded gray and a dotted line style.
0:00 vertical line red solid
Adds one vertical red line at midnight.
By specifying the open, high, low, and/or close price components, the indicator will interpret this as an instruction to draw a horizontal line at the specified price level. If two or more price levels are provided, each will be tracked accordingly.
Draw a red line starting from 0 open
Draws a line starting from midnight open until the end of the trading day.
Track high and low starting from 9:30 in a dashed green medium line
Tracks the day’s high and low, adjusting as new highs and lows are drawn in a dashed thicker green line from 9:30 AM until the end of trading hours.
# Asia
20 to 0 green high to low filled
# London
2:00 to 5 blue low and high filled
#New York
8:30 to 11:30 orange zone shaded orange between the high and low dotted
Adds three ICT Kill Zones for Asia, London, and New York based on their respective high and low.
8:30 to 11:30 orange zone shaded orange open close dotted
Will add a second New York zone overlapping the high and low zone.
#Draw Open Range Breakout (ORB)
9:30 to 10:00 purple extended zone

Use cases for swing detection
Trend Identification
By connecting the swing highs and lows, traders can identify and analyze the prevailing trend in the market. An uptrend is characterized by higher swing highs and lows, while a downtrend is characterized by lower highs and lower lows. The indicator helps traders visually to assess the strength and continuity of the trend.
Support And Resistance Levels
The swing highs and lows can act as support and resistance levels. Swing highs may act as resistance levels where selling pressure increases, while swing lows may act as support levels where buying pressure increases. Traders often pay attention to these levels as potential areas for trade entries, exits, or placing stop-loss orders.
Pattern Recognition
The swings identified by the indicator can help traders recognize chart patterns, such as equal high/lows, consolidations, wedges, triangles or more complex patterns like Gartley or Head and Shoulders. These patterns can provide insights into potential trend continuation or reversal.
Trade Entry and Exit
Traders may use TRN ZigZag Pro to determine potential trade entry and exit points. For example, in an uptrend, traders may look for opportunities to enter long positions near swing lows or on pullbacks to support levels. Conversely, in a downtrend, traders may consider short positions near swing highs or on retracements to resistance levels.
Conclusion
While signals from TRN ZigZag Pro can be informative, it is important to recognize that their reliability may vary. Various external factors can impact market prices, and it is essential to consider your risk tolerance and investment goals when executing trades.
