MA DerivativesMA Derivatives basicly using Ichimoku Cloud and some additional moving averages for traders.
A. ICHIMOKU
Tenkan-sen (Conversion Line): (9-period high + 9-period low)/2
On a daily chart , this line is the midpoint of the 9-day high-low range, which is almost two weeks.
Kijun-sen (Base Line): (26-period high + 26-period low)/2
On a daily chart , this line is the midpoint of the 26-day high-low range, which is almost one month.
Senkou Span A (Leading Span A): (Conversion Line + Base Line)/2
This is the midpoint between the Conversion Line and the Base Line. The Leading Span A forms one of the two Cloud boundaries. It is referred to as “Leading” because it is plotted 26 periods in the future and forms the faster Cloud boundary.
Senkou Span B (Leading Span B): (52-period high + 52-period low)/2
On the daily chart , this line is the midpoint of the 52-day high-low range, which is a little less than 3 months. The default calculation setting is 52 periods, but it can be adjusted. This value is plotted 26 periods in the future and forms the slower Cloud boundary.
Chikou Span: Represents the closing price and is plotted 26 days back.
Kumo Cloud: Kumo cloud between Senkuo Span A and Senkou Span B lines. It can be green or red. Color can be change with the trend.
You can use Ichimoku for buy&sell strategy
For Buying Strategy
- Tenkansen (Conversion Line) should crossover Kijunsen (Base line) above the highest line of cloud
- Price should be above the highest line of cloud
- Chikouspan should be above the cloud
For Selling Strategy
- Kijunsen (Base Line) should crossover Tenkansen (Conversion Line) below the lowest line of cloud
- Price should be below the lowest line of cloud
- Chikouspan should be below the cloud

D. BOLLINGER BAND
Bollinger Bands are a type of price envelope developed by John BollingerOpens in a new window. (Price envelopes define upper and lower price range levels.) Bollinger Bands are envelopes plotted at a standard deviation level above and below a simple moving average of the price. Because the distance of the bands is based on standard deviation, they adjust to volatility swings in the underlying price.
Bollinger Bands use 2 parameters, Period and Standard Deviations, StdDev. The default values are 20 for period, and 2 for standard deviations, although you may customize the combinations.
Bollinger bands help determine whether prices are high or low on a relative basis. They are used in pairs, both upper and lower bands and in conjunction with a moving average. Further, the pair of bands is not intended to be used on its own. Use the pair to confirm signals given with other indicators.
How this indicator works
When the bands tighten during a period of low volatility, it raises the likelihood of a sharp price move in either direction. This may begin a trending move. Watch out for a false move in opposite direction which reverses before the proper trend begins.
When the bands separate by an unusual large amount, volatility increases and any existing trend may be ending.
Prices have a tendency to bounce within the bands' envelope, touching one band then moving to the other band. You can use these swings to help identify potential profit targets. For example, if a price bounces off the lower band and then crosses above the moving average, the upper band then becomes the profit target.
Price can exceed or hug a band envelope for prolonged periods during strong trends. On divergence with a momentum oscillator, you may want to do additional research to determine if taking additional profits is appropriate for you.
A strong trend continuation can be expected when the price moves out of the bands. However, if prices move immediately back inside the band, then the suggested strength is negated.
Calculation
First, calculate a simple moving average. Next, calculate the standard deviation over the same number of periods as the simple moving average. For the upper band, add the standard deviation to the moving average. For the lower band, subtract the standard deviation from the moving average.
Typical values used:
Short term: 10 day moving average, bands at 1.5 standard deviations. (1.5 times the standard dev. +/- the SMA)
Medium term: 20 day moving average, bands at 2 standard deviations.
Long term: 50 day moving average, bands at 2.5 standard deviations.
E. ADJUSTABLE MOVING AVERAGES

TradeChartist Plotter™TradeChartist Plotter is an extremely useful and adaptive indicator that connects to any oscillator to plot highs and lows, Divergences and also Bull and Bear Zones based on the Oscillator and user input to filter zones. When plotted as normal or Heikin Ashi price bars/candles, the divergences can be plotted on price bars and in addition ™TradeChartist MA Visualizer can be plotted and used to filter trade zones derived from the Oscillator connected.
===================================================================================================================
™𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝗣𝗹𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗨𝘀𝗲𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗹
===================================
To connect an oscillator to ™TradeChartist Plotter, follow the steps below.
From the ╔═══ 𝗣𝗹𝘂𝗴 𝗢𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 ═══ 🔌 dropdown, choose the Oscillator plot which is active on the chart.
Choose the Oscillator Smoothing factor if smoothing is not available on the original oscillator plot by using the Osᴄɪʟʟᴀᴛᴏʀ Sᴍᴏᴏᴛʜɪɴɢ input box.
Enter Upper and Lower Bands for the Oscillator plot that helps detect Highs/Lows, Divergences, Trade Zones etc. by using the Uᴘᴘᴇʀ Bᴀɴᴅ and Lᴏᴡᴇʀ Bᴀɴᴅ input boxes. For example, for oscillators like RSI, bands can be 60/40 or 70/30 or even 50/50 to help filter highs/lows on Oscillator and the main price chart based on Oscillator values above Upper Band and Oscillator values below Lower Band.
Osᴄɪʟʟᴀᴛᴏʀ Bᴀsᴇ Lɪɴᴇ is required especially for Oscillators that don't have 0 as its base line. For example, RSI, Stochastic etc. oscillate between 0 and 100. For Oscillators like these, a base line value is really useful on ™TradeChartist Plotter especially to detect Divergences, Highs/Lows, Trade Zones and even to plot the Oscillator as a Histogram or Area plot.
Pʟᴏᴛ Bᴀsᴇ Lɪɴᴇ ᴀɴᴅ Bᴀɴᴅs plots base line and the bands if Oscillator plot is chosen.
There are three plot types under Pʟᴏᴛ Tʏᴘᴇ and they are
══ Plot Oscillator - This option plots the connected Oscillator
══ Plot Price Candles - This option plots price candles and if overlaid on main chart, Highs/Lows, Divergences etc can be visualized along with ™TradeChartist MA Visualizer if enabled.
══ Plot Price Bars - This option plots price bars and if overlaid on main chart, Highs/Lows, Divergences etc can be visualized along with ™TradeChartist MA Visualizer if enabled.
Pʟᴏᴛ HA Cᴀɴᴅʟᴇs/Bᴀʀs plots Heikin Ashi candles/bars. It doesn't affect the Oscillator plot or in anyway alter the Oscillator plot.
Pʟᴏᴛ Sᴛʏʟᴇ dropdown has three types of styles - Line, Histogram and Area plot styles for the Oscillator plot.
Pʟᴏᴛ Pʀɪᴄᴇ Hɪɢʜs ᴀɴᴅ Lᴏᴡs plots the price highs and price lows corresponding to the Bull and Bear zones of the Oscillator connected.

MA Visualizer is a powerful and very useful original ™TradeChartist visual method to plot Moving Averages of the close price of the security for user specified look back period in a visually appealing style in the form of colour coded bands. MA Visualizer not only helps the trader spot the price action of the security relative to the moving average, but also paints a visual picture of the trend strength, which must be seen and used on chart to appreciate its elegance. One of 15 different types of Moving Averages can be used to visualize the price action.
Activate 𝗠𝗔 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗿 and choose the MA type from MA Vɪsᴜᴀʟɪᴢᴇʀ Tʏᴘᴇ dropdown and entering the lookback period in MA Vɪsᴜᴀʟɪᴢᴇʀ ᴘᴇʀɪᴏᴅ input box.
MA Visualizer colour theme can be be changed from MA Vɪsᴜᴀʟɪᴢᴇʀ Cᴏʟᴏʀ Sᴄʜᴇᴍᴇ dropdown.
The faster of the two set of bands that form the MA Visualizer reacts to price action faster and can be clearly seen from its change of colour from Bull Colour to Bear Colour or vice-versa earlier than the slower set of bands. The fill colour between the bands also helps the user stay in a trade or exit a trade based on other confirmators.
Enabling Dᴀᴢᴢʟɪɴɢ Vɪsᴜᴀʟɪᴢᴇʀ makes the Visualizer dazzle. Uncheck this option for normal view of MA Visualizer.
𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐌𝐀 𝐕𝐢𝐬𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐫 filters the trade zones based on MA Visualizer's trend agreeing with the Oscillator trend. Fɪʟᴛᴇʀ Eᴀʀʟʏ Vɪsᴜᴀʟɪᴢᴇʀ Bʀᴇᴀᴋᴏᴜᴛs filters the trades based on faster MA Visualizer plot's trend.
Also, enabling Pʟᴏᴛᴛᴇʀ Bᴀᴄᴋɢʀᴏᴜɴᴅ Fɪʟʟ under 𝗨𝘀𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗘𝘅𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘀 helps detect the trade zones with or without the MA Visualizer filter enabled.

Plotter detects both Regular and Hidden Bullish (in a Bear Zone) and Bearish Divergences (in a Bull Zone) at every occurence based on the Oscillator connected. This can be filtered by the use of filtering by Upper and Lower Band values in the Oscillator section. Divergences can also be plotted on price bars based on Pʟᴏᴛ Tʏᴘᴇ .
To plot divergences, enable 𝗗𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀, Sʜᴏᴡ Rᴇɢᴜʟᴀʀ Dɪᴠᴇʀɢᴇɴᴄᴇs and Sʜᴏᴡ Hɪᴅᴅᴇɴ Dɪᴠᴇʀɢᴇɴᴄᴇs .
Users can further filter Divergences by entering the number of bars to the right in Rɪɢʜᴛ ʙᴀʀs ғᴏʀ Pɪᴠᴏᴛ Cᴏɴғɪʀᴍᴀᴛɪᴏɴ input box to confirm the Price Pivot (for Regular divergences) and Oscillator Pivot (for Hidden Divergences).
Note: Divergences can not be traded at every instance or as a standalone indicator. It just indicates a possibility of strength exhaustion and should not be trusted during a trending market. Higher smoothing (done sensibly) also filters divergences. Divergence can be a strong confirmator once a reversal is detected. For example, using MA Visualizer can help confirm a divergence and vice-versa to identify the trend changes. This means that the confirmations may happen after a few bars since the divergence in agreement with the MA Visualizers trend change.
The example chart of 4hr BTC-USDT chart shows the Divergences filtered by use of RSI 60/40 bands, MA Visualizer and Regression channel trends. It is important to note that the trend intensity colour on the plot and bars (if bar colour option is enabled) will help detect if the Divergence would hold.

Plotter offers two vibrant Colour Themes, namely Chilli and Flame , which can be opted from Pʟᴏᴛᴛᴇʀ Tʜᴇᴍᴇ dropdown. These themes also offer the option to plot the trend intensity on the price bars as bar colours by enabling Cᴏʟᴏᴜʀ Bᴀʀs . Bar colors can also be inverted using Iɴᴠᴇʀᴛ Bᴀʀ Cᴏʟᴏᴜʀ option.
Users can also choose to use the Simple theme and choose preferred colours from Sɪᴍᴘʟᴇ Tʜᴇᴍᴇ ʙᴜʟʟ Cᴏʟᴏᴜʀ and Sɪᴍᴘʟᴇ Tʜᴇᴍᴇ ʙᴇᴀʀ Cᴏʟᴏᴜʀ colour input.
Note : The indicator does not repaint and can be confidently used for alerts and trade entries without worrying about plots disappearing after bar close.

Volume Profile [Makit0]VOLUME PROFILE INDICATOR v0.5 beta
Volume Profile is suitable for day and swing trading on stock and futures markets, is a volume based indicator that gives you 6 key values for each session: POC, VAH, VAL, profile HIGH, LOW and MID levels. This project was born on the idea of plotting the RTH sessions Value Areas for /ES in an automated way, but you can select between 3 different sessions: RTH, GLOBEX and FULL sessions.
Some basic concepts:
- Volume Profile calculates the total volume for the session at each price level and give us market generated information about what price and range of prices are the most traded (where the value is)
- Value Area (VA): range of prices where 70% of the session volume is traded
- Value Area High (VAH): highest price within VA
- Value Area Low (VAL): lowest price within VA
- Point of Control (POC): the most traded price of the session (with the most volume)
- Session HIGH, LOW and MID levels are also important
There are a huge amount of things to know of Market Profile and Auction Theory like types of days, types of openings, relationships between value areas and openings... for those interested Jim Dalton's work is the way to come
I'm in my 2nd trading year and my goal for this year is learning to daytrade the futures markets thru the lens of Market Profile
For info on Volume Profile: TV Volume Profile wiki page at www.tradingview.com
For info on Market Profile and Market Auction Theory: Jim Dalton's book Mind over markets (this is a MUST)
BE AWARE: this indicator is based on the current chart's time interval and it only plots on 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15 and 30 minutes charts.
This is the correlation table TV uses in the Volume Profile Session Volume indicator (from the wiki above)
Chart Indicator
1 - 5 1
6 - 15 5
16 - 30 10
31 - 60 15
61 - 120 30
121 - 1D 60
This indicator doesn't follow that correlation, it doesn't get the volume data from a lower timeframe, it gets the data from the current chart resolution.
FEATURES
- 6 key values for each session: POC (solid yellow), VAH (solid red), VAL (solid green), profile HIGH (dashed silver), LOW (dashed silver) and MID (dotted silver) levels
- 3 sessions to choose for: RTH, GLOBEX and FULL
- select the numbers of sessions to plot by adding 12 hours periods back in time
- show/hide POC
- show/hide VAH & VAL
- show/hide session HIGH, LOW & MID levels
- highlight the periods of time out of the session (silver)
- extend the plotted lines all the way to the right, be careful this can turn the chart unreadable if there are a lot of sessions and lines plotted
SETTINGS
- Session: select between RTH (8:30 to 15:15 CT), GLOBEX (17:00 to 8:30 CT) and FULL (17:00 to 15:15 CT) sessions. RTH by default
- Last 12 hour periods to show: select the deph of the study by adding periods, for example, 60 periods are 30 natural days and around 22 trading days. 1 period by default
- Show POC (Point of Control): show/hide POC line. true by default
- Show VA (Value Area High & Low): show/hide VAH & VAL lines. true by default
- Show Range (Session High, Low & Mid): show/hide session HIGH, LOW & MID lines. true by default
- Highlight out of session: show/hide a silver shadow over the non session periods. true by default
- Extension: Extend all the plotted lines to the right. false by default
HOW TO SETUP
BE AWARE THIS INDICATOR PLOTS ONLY IN THE FOLLOWING CHART RESOLUTIONS: 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15 AND 30 MINUTES CHARTS. YOU MUST SELECT ONE OF THIS RESOLUTIONS TO THE INDICATOR BE ABLE TO PLOT
- By default this indicator plots all the levels for the last RTH session within the last 12 hours, if there is no plot try to adjust the 12 hours periods until the seesion and the periods match
- For Globex/Full sessions just select what you want from the dropdown menu and adjust the periods to plot the values
- Show or hide the levels you want with the 3 groups: POC line, VA lines and Session Range lines
- The highlight and extension options are for a better visibility of the levels as POC or VAH/VAL

GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY TRADING
OpeningRange (Trading_Tix)Purpose:
The indicator highlights the high, low, and middle (50%) price levels of a specified session's opening range. These levels can serve as key support and resistance zones for trading strategies. The indicator also offers options to extend these levels beyond the session into later timeframes, making it useful for tracking breakout or trend continuation setups.
Key Features:
1. Session Detection:
The indicator identifies a specific session period using the user-defined Session Time. It calculates the start time, high, and low prices during this period:
rangeTime: Defines the session time range (default: 5:00 PM to 2:59 AM).
extendTime: Defines the extended time range where lines/backgrounds can be prolonged.
2. Opening Range Calculation:
High (high_val) and Low (low_val)**:
Tracks the highest and lowest prices during the session.
Middle Line:
A midpoint is calculated by averaging high_val and low_val.
3. Visual Elements:
Horizontal Lines:
Drawn at the high, low, and middle levels.
Customizable in width and color.
Shaded Background Box:
Covers the range between high and low prices.
The box’s color and transparency can be adjusted.
Line and Box Extension:
Optionally extends these elements into the extended time range.
4. Customization:
Users have the flexibility to:
Toggle visibility of lines, middle line, and background box.
Adjust colors, line thickness, and style.
Enable or disable the extension of lines and backgrounds into the extended period.
How It Works:
Initialization:
The script initializes variables to store range data (startTime, high_val, low_val) and drawing objects (lines, boxes).
It detects whether the current bar falls within the session (inSession) or extended timeframe (inExtend).
Plotting:
During the session:
Deletes previous lines and boxes from prior sessions.
Draws new lines at the high, low, and middle levels.
Creates a background box covering the range, if enabled.
During the extended period:
Extends the session lines and box, if the user has opted for extensions.
Updates:
Continuously adjusts the high/low values and updates the lines as new price data arrives.
Use Cases:
This indicator can be valuable for traders who:
Use the opening range to identify potential breakout zones.
Trade based on price consolidation within the range.
Want a visual representation of key price levels to plan entries and exits.
Would you like help refining this script further or adjusting its settings to match your trading style?
MXKE | Swing Trader AssistIntroduction
Swing Trader Assist indicator is designed to assist in the systematic identification of Hammers & Lookback signals within Uptrending markets, Stars & Lookback signals within Downtrending markets, and Mean Reversion signals within Sideways markets. The trader must first identify a strong market trend, then apply the indicator. Application of the indicator to weak trends will render equally weak signals. Application of the indicator to strong trends will render equally strong signals. Identification of strong trends is the responsibility of the individual trader and is instrumental to the successful deployment of this indicator and accompanying trading plan.
*Please comment below to request access*
*Please share with me on Twitter your usage and/or ideas for improvement so that I may improve this indicator in the future*
Market Types
Uptrend: Higher highs + Higher lows
Downtrend: Lower highs + Lower lows
Sideways: Higher highs + Lower lows (Expanding Range) or Lower highs + Higher lows (Narrowing Range)
Position Sizing
1R = .25%-2% of total nominal capital dependent upon timeframe and risk appetite
Order Types
Entry: Buy Stop 1 tick above High of “Up” Signal Bars; Sell Stop 1 tick below Low of “Down” Signal Bars
Stop: Bar Close <= 1 tick below Low of “Up” Signal Bar; Bar Close >= 1 tick above High of “Down” Signal Bar
Profit Target: 1.5R distance from “Up” or “Down” fill level with the option to trail stop on each new swing high/low; Bollinger Band Midline minimum 1.5R distance from “Sideways” fill level with option to trail stop on continuation to the opposite end of the range (opposite Bollinger Band)
Trading Plan
❑ Market Type is clearly identifiable as Up, Down or Sideways
❑ Swing Trader Assist indicator is set to the corresponding Market Type: Up, Down or Sideways
❑ Position size is no more than .25%-2% of total nominal capital (based on distance from Signal Bar fill level to Signal Bar stop level as 1R)
❑ Distance from Signal Bar fill level to potential Profit Target is minimum 1.5R
❑ On Hammer or Star fill: close position into trend extension at 1.5R+ or adjust trailing stop on each new swing high/low
❑ On Mean Reversion fill: close position at midline or adjust trailing stop on each continuation to opposite end of range
Usage Notes
The indicator will display developing signals intrabar and it is therefore suggested to wait until bar close to act on any signals. “Autodetect” setting under “Market Type” is currently in beta mode. While it is designed to reveal only relevant signals within strong trends based on a series of EMAs, this setting has not been extensively tested. Use with caution.
The indicator is not meant to be a mechanical trading system. It is designed to assist the trader in objectively and systematically identifying signal bars during the execution of the below swing trading plan. It is up to the trader to determine if overall price action warrants acting upon the signal bars or not.

Lucid SARI wrote this script after having listened to Hyperwave with Sawcruhteez and Tyler Jenks of Lucid Investments Strategies LLC on July 3, 2019. They felt that the existing built-in Parabolic SAR indicator was not doing its calculations properly, and they hoped that someone might help them correct this. So I tried my hand at it, learning Pine Script as I went. I worked on it through the early morning hours and finished it by 4 am on July 4, 2019. I've added a few bits of code since, adding the rule regarding the SAR not advancing beyond the high (low) of the prior two candles during an uptrend (downtrend), but the core script is as it was.
This code is open source under the MIT license. If you have any improvements or corrections to suggest, please send me a pull request via the github repository github.com
For more details on the initial script, see
Sawcruhteez from Lucid Investment Strategies wrote the following description of the Parabolic SAR, where the quotes are from Section II of J. Welles Wilder, Jr.'s book New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems (1978)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Parabolic SAR
"The Parabolic Time / Price System derives its name from the fact that when charted, the
pattern formed by the stops resembles a parabola, or if you will, a French Curve. The system
allows room for the market to react for the first few days after a trade is initiated and then the
stop begins to move up more rapidly. The stop is not only a function of price but also a function
of time .
"The stop never backs up. It moves an incremental amount each day, only in the direction which
the trade has been initiated."
"The stop is also a function of price because the distance the stop moves up is relative to the
favorable distance the price has moved... specifically, the most favorable price reached since the
trade was initiated."
A. The calculation for a bullish Parabolic SAR is:
Tomorrow’s SAR = Today’s SAR + AF(EP - Today’s SAR)
"Acceleration Factor (AF) is one of a progression of numbers beginning at 0.02 and ending at
0.20. The AF is increased by 0.02 each period that a new high is made" (if long) or new low is
made (if short).
EP is the "Extreme Price Point for the trade made so far. If Long , EP is the extreme high price for
the trade; if Short , EP is the extreme low price for the trade.”
Most websites will provide the above calculation for the Parabolic SAR but almost all of them
leave out this crucial detail:
B. "Never move the SAR into the previous day’s range or today’s range
"1. If Long , never move the SAR for tomorrow above the previous day’s low or
today’s low . If the SAR is calculated to be above the previous day’s low or
today’s low, then use the lower low between today and the previous day as
the new SAR. Make the next days calculations based upon this SAR.
"2. If Short , never move the SAR for tomorrow below the previous day’s high or
today’s high . If the SAR is calculated to be below the previous days’ high or
today’s high, then use the higher high between today and the previous day
as the new SAR. Make the next days calculations based upon this SAR."
When a Bullish SAR is broken then it gets placed at the SIP (significant point) of the prior trend.
In otherwords it is placed above the current candle and at the price that was the SIP.
The inverse is true for the first Bullish SAR.
"This system is a true reversal system; that is, every stop point is also a reverse point." If breaking
through a bearish SAR (one above price) that simultaneously signals to close a short and go
long.
Ease of Movement WatcherHere’s a handy Ease of Movement(EMV) Indicator. I tried to include detailed comments so that anyone that’s learning pine can follow along.
The Ease of Movement Indicator is a volume based oscillator that is designed to measure the ease (or movability) of price movement for a security. The EMV is a centered oscillator, meaning that values can fluctuate above and below zero.
To understand how to use and interpret the EMV Indicator, its crucial to first understand its two main calculations :
Distance Moved = ((high + low) / 2) - ((high + low ) / 2)
-This is the difference between the current period’s midpoint and the previous period’s
midpoint.
Box Ratio = (volume / 100,000) / (high - low)
-When calculating the Box Ratio, it is common to divide the volume by 100,000 for a clearer visualization of the data. However, users can choose
to modify this value with the ‘volumeDiv’ input.
The Ease of Movement Value is then pretty simple to calculate:
EMV = (Distance Moved / Box Ratio)
The indicator then plots a SMA of the previous 24 EMV Values.
Looking at the formula, we know that combining low volume with a large {high, low} range will result in a relatively small box ratio value. Thus, we know that the EMV value for that period will be higher since EMV is found by dividing the Distance Moved by the Box Ratio.
Here’s a simple guide to interpreting the EMV:
- If (EMV > 0)
then price is increasing with relative ease.
-If (EMV < 0)
then price is decreasing with relative ease.
- If high-low range is large and volume is low
then ease of movement is high.
-If high-low range is small and volume is high
then ease of movement is low.
The Chart:
-The histogram represents the Simple Moving Average of EMV Values. The default length is 24, but users can adjust this value at the inputs menu(I've
found 24 works best).
-The teal and pink dotted lines represent the standard deviation of the SMA of EMV values multiplied by 2.5.
-The histogram turns dark green when the EMV SMA is greater than the top teal dotted standard deviations line.
-The histogram turns maroon when the EMV SMA falls below the bottom pink standard deviation line.
How To Use:
Enter a long position when the most recent EMV SMA value was below the lower pink stand. dev. line and the current EMV SMA value rises above that
same pink line. That means the previous bar was maroon and the current bar is not.
If the user enables the option to show entry points, a green dot will be plotted when it is time to enter a long position.
Exit the long position when the most recent EMV SMA value was above the upper green standard deviation line and the current EMV SMA value falls
below that same line. If this is true, then the previous bar will be dark green, and the current will be light green.
If the ‘showExits’ option is enabled, then a red dot will be plotted when it is time to exit the long position.
Input Options:
- 'volumeDiv' : Integer. Used in the calculation of Box Ratio.
- 'lenSMA' : Integer. The length of the Simple Moving Average of Ease of Movement Values.
- 'showStDev' : Bool. If true, dotted green and red lines will be shown at values equal to 2.5 * standard deviation of emvSMA and -2.5 * standard deviation of
emvSMA.
- 'showEntries' and 'showExits' : Bool. If true, a green circle will be plotted at long entry points and a red circle will be plotted at long exit points.
- 'changeBgColor': Bool. If true, the background color will change to green when it is time to enter a long position and red when it is time to exit.
Alerts:
- When it is time to enter a long position, an alert with the message "EMV Tracker - Enter Long" is sent.
- When it is time to exit a long position, an alert with the message "EMV Tracker - Exit Long" is sent.
NOTE:
- I usually use this indicator to confirm signals from other indicators rather than relying on it solely.
- Most accurate signals are generated on 30 minutes with the default input values I've set in the script.

cd_secret_candlestick_patterns_CxHi traders,
With this indicator, we aim to uncover secret candlestick formations that even advanced traders may miss—especially those that can't be detected by classic pattern indicators, unless you're a true master of candlestick patterns or candle math.
________________________________________
General Idea:
We'll try to identify candlestick patterns by regrouping candles into custom-sized segments that you define.
You might ask: “Why do I need this? I can just look at different timeframes and spot the structure anyway.” But it’s not the same.
For example, if you're using a 1-minute chart and add a higher-timeframe candle overlay (like 5-minute), the candles you see start at fixed timestamps like 0, 5, 10, etc.
However, in this indicator, we redraw new candles by grouping them from the current candle backward in batches of five.
These candles won't match the standard view—only when aligned with exact time multiples (e.g., 0 and 5 minutes) will they look the same.
In classic charts:
• You see 5-minute candles that begin every 0 and 5 minutes.
In this tool:
• You see a continuously updating set of 5 merged 1-minute candles redrawn every minute.
What about the structures forming in between those fixed timeframes?
That’s exactly what we’ll be able to detect—while also making the lower timeframe chart more readable.
________________________________________
Candle Merging:
Let’s continue with an example.
Assume we choose to merge 5 candles. Then the new candle will be formed using:
open = open
close = close
high = math.max(high , high , high , high , high)
low = math.min(low , low , low , low , low)
This logic continues backward on the chart, creating merged candles in groups of 5.
Since the selected patterns are made up of 3, 4, or 5 candles, we redraw 5 such merged candles to analyze.
________________________________________
Which Patterns Are Included?
A total of 18 bullish and bearish patterns are included.
You’ll find both widely known formations and a few personal ones I use, marked as (MeReT).
You can find the pattern list and visual reference here:
________________________________________
Entry and Filtering Suggestions:
Let me say this clearly:
Entering a trade every time a pattern forms will not make you profitable in the long run.
You need a clear trade plan and should only act when you can answer questions like:
• Where did the pattern appear?
• When and under what conditions?
It’s more effective to trade in the direction of the trend and look for setups around support/resistance, supply/demand zones, key levels, or areas confirmed by other indicators.
Whether you enter immediately after the pattern or wait for a retest is a personal choice—but risk management is non-negotiable.
One of the optional filters I’ve included is a Higher Timeframe (HTF) condition, which is my personal preference:
When enabled, the highest or lowest price among the pattern candles must match the high or low of the current HTF candle.
You can see in the image below the decrease in the number of detected patterns on the 1-minute chart when using no filter (blue labels) compared to when the 1-hour timeframe filter is applied (red labels).
Additionally, I’ve added a “protected” condition for engulfing patterns to help filter out weak classic engulf patterns.
________________________________________
Settings:
From the menu, you can configure:
• Number of candles for regrouping
• Distance between the last candle and newly drawn candles
• Show/hide options
• HTF filter toggle and timeframe selection
• Color, label placement, and text customization
• Pattern list (select which to display or trigger alerts for)
My preferred setup:
While trading on the 1-minute chart, I typically set the higher timeframe to 15m or 1H, and switch the candle count between 2 and 3 depending on the situation.
⚠️ Important note:
The “Show” and “Alert” options are controlled by a single command.
Alerts are automatically created for any pattern you choose to display.
________________________________________
What’s Next?
In future updates, I plan to add:
• Pattern success rate statistics
• Multi-broker confirmation for pattern validation
Lastly, keep in mind:
The more candles a pattern is based on, the more reliable it may be.
I'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions.
Cheerful trading! 🕊️📈

Share SizePurpose: The "Share Size" indicator is a powerful risk management tool designed to help traders quickly determine appropriate share/contract sizes based on their predefined risk per trade and the current market's volatility (measured by ATR). It calculates potential dollar differences from recent highs/lows and translates them into a recommended share/contract size, accounting for a user-defined ATR-based offset. This helps you maintain consistent risk exposure across different instruments and market conditions.
How It Works: At its core, the indicator aims to answer the question: "How many shares/contracts can I trade to keep my dollar risk within limits if my stop loss is placed at a recent high or low, plus an ATR-based buffer?"
Price Difference Calculation: It first calculates the dollar difference between the current close price and the high and low of the current bar (Now) and the previous 5 bars (1 to 5).
Tick Size & Value Conversion: These price differences are then converted into dollar values using the instrument's specific tickSize and tickValue. You can select common futures contracts (MNQ, MES, MGC, MCL), a generic "Stock" setting, or define custom values.
ATR Offset: An Average True Range (ATR) based offset is added to these dollar differences. This offset acts as a buffer, simulating a stop loss placed beyond the immediate high/low, accounting for market noise or volatility.
Risk-Based Share Size: Finally, using your Default Risk ($) input, the indicator calculates how many shares/contracts you can take for each of the 6 high/low scenarios (current bar, 5 previous bars) to ensure your dollar risk per trade remains constant.
Dynamic Table: All these calculations are presented in a clear, real-time table at the bottom-left of your chart. The table dynamically adjusts its "Label" to show the selected symbol preset, making it easy to see which instrument's settings are currently being used. The "Shares" rows indicate the maximum shares/contracts you can trade for a given risk and stop placement. The cells corresponding to the largest dollar difference (and thus smallest share size) for both high and low scenarios are highlighted, drawing your attention to the most conservative entry points.
Key Benefits:
Consistent Risk: Helps maintain a consistent dollar risk per trade, regardless of the instrument or its current price/volatility.
Dynamic Sizing: Automatically adjusts share/contract size based on market volatility and your chosen stop placement.
Quick Reference: Provides a real-time, easy-to-read table directly on your chart, eliminating manual calculations.
Informed Decision Making: Assists in quickly assessing trade opportunities and potential position sizes.
Setup Parameters (Inputs)
When you add the "Share Size" indicator to your chart, you'll see a settings dialog with the following parameters:
1. Symbol Preset:
Purpose: This is the primary setting to define the tick size and value for your chosen trading instrument.
Options:
MNQ (Micro Nasdaq 100 Futures)
MES (Micro E-mini S&P 500 Futures)
MGC (Micro Gold Futures)
MCL (Micro Crude Oil Futures)
Stock (Generic stock setting, with tick size/value of 0.01)
Custom (Allows you to manually input tick size and value)
Default: MNQ
Importance: Crucial for accurate dollar calculations. Ensure this matches the instrument you are trading.
2. Tick Size (Manual Override):
Purpose: Only used if Symbol Preset is set to Custom. This defines the smallest price increment for your instrument.
Type: Float
Default: 0.25
Hidden: This input is hidden (display=display.none) unless "Custom" is selected. You might need to change display=display.none to display=display.inline in the code if you want to see and adjust it directly in the settings for "Custom" mode.
3. Tick Value (Manual Override):
Purpose: Only used if Symbol Preset is set to Custom. This defines the dollar value of one tickSize increment.
Type: Float
Default: 0.50
Hidden: This input is hidden (display=display.none) unless "Custom" is selected. Similar to Tick Size, you might need to adjust its display property if you want it visible.
4. Default Risk ($):
Purpose: This is your maximum desired dollar risk per trade. All share size calculations will be based on this value.
Type: Float
Default: 50.0
Hidden: This input is hidden (display=display.none). It's a critical setting, so consider making it visible by changing display=display.none to display=display.inline in the code if you want users to easily adjust their risk.
ATR Offset Settings (Group): This group of settings allows you to fine-tune the ATR-based buffer added to your potential stop loss.
5. ATR Offset Length:
Purpose: Defines the lookback period for the Average True Range (ATR) calculation used for the offset.
Type: Integer
Default: 7
Hidden: This input is hidden (display=display.none).
6. ATR Offset Timeframe:
Purpose: Specifies the timeframe on which the ATR for the offset will be calculated. This allows you to use ATR from a higher timeframe for your stop buffer, even if your chart is on a lower timeframe.
Type: Timeframe string (e.g., "1" for 1 minute, "60" for 1 hour, "D" for Daily)
Default: "1" (1 Minute)
Hidden: This input is hidden (display=display.none).
7. ATR Offset Multiplier (x ATR):
Purpose: Multiplies the calculated ATR value to determine the final dollar offset added to your high/low price difference. A value of 1.0 means one full ATR is added. A value of 0.5 means half an ATR is added.
Type: Float
Minimum Value: 0 (no offset)
Default: 1.0
Hidden: This input is hidden (display=display.none).
30-Min Breakout with VWAP 📊 30-Min Breakout with VWAP & EMA Filter
by JDTJDTTradingCo
A powerful intraday breakout system tailored for precision entries, trend confirmation, and visual clarity. This script captures high-probability trades based on early market structure, combining the strength of VWAP, EMA, and Risk-Reward-based TP/SL management.
🧠 Core Strategy Logic
🔹 Session Initialization
The script defines a custom market opening time (default: 9:15 AM IST) and tracks price movement for the first 30 minutes.
During this session, it dynamically captures the session high and low to form a breakout zone.
🔹 Breakout Entry Rules
After the 30-minute session ends, a trade triggers only if:
BUY: Price closes above session high, above VWAP, and EMA(9) > VWAP.
SELL: Price closes below session low, below VWAP, and EMA(9) < VWAP.
🔹 TP/SL Logic
Stop-loss (SL) is placed at the more conservative level between the VWAP and the opposite breakout.
Take-profit (TP) is derived using a user-defined Risk-Reward (RR) Ratio.
Trade direction, SL, TP, and entry price are visually displayed on the chart.
🧩 Technical Components
🔸 VWAP: Trend anchor, used as breakout filter and SL anchor
🔸 EMA(9): Momentum filter to avoid choppy trades
🔸 Session Box: Visually marks the 30-min breakout zone
🔸 TP/SL/Entry Lines: Clean, dashed levels plotted dynamically
🔸 Auto Reset: Ensures new breakout calculations on each trading day
🔸 Single Trade Per Day: Once a trade triggers, no further trades are taken until the next session
🧱 Swing High/Low Detection
The script also plots the most recent swing highs and lows using customizable pivot settings (left/right bars).
These levels act as potential support/resistance zones and are marked with clear H / L labels and extendable lines.
⚙️ Customization Options
Setting Description
Session Start Time Define market open time (e.g., 9:15 for NSE)
Risk-Reward Ratio Customize TP level based on SL distance
Swing Sensitivity Adjust bars to detect swing highs/lows

cd_cisd_market_CxHi Traders,
Overview:
Many traders follow market structure to identify the market direction and seek trade opportunities in line with the trend.
However, markings derived from user-defined inputs can create different structures, depending on personal choices. For instance, choosing a pivot distance of 3 instead of 2 alters the structure, even though the chart remains the same. Ideally, the structure should remain consistent.
"Change in State Delivery" ( CISD ) is a widely accepted concept among traders and is considered a significant indicator of market direction based on the gain/loss of CISD levels.
In this indicator, CISD is selected as the primary criterion for marking market structure, eliminating the influence of user-dependent variations.
Here is a summary of the key logic and rules applied:
• When the price forms a new high/low, that level is only considered a pivot if a CISD has occurred.
• A bullish CISD is always followed by a bearish CISD, and vice versa.
• Pivot points form the internal structure.
• The internal structure is used to interpret the swing structure.
• Probabilities are derived from internal structure patterns.
________________________________________
Details:
How is CISD determined?
As is commonly known:
• When price makes a new high, the opening level of the first candle in the consecutive bullish candle sequence is marked.
• When price makes a new low, the opening of the first candle in the consecutive bearish sequence is marked.
• If there’s only one candle in the sequence, its opening level is used.
In a bullish market, losing a bearish CISD level (i.e., a close below it) or in a bearish market, gaining a bullish CISD level (i.e., a close above it) is interpreted as a potential shift in buyer-seller dominance and a possible market reversal.
________________________________________
How are internal (pivot) levels determined?
• When price closes below a bearish CISD level, the highest candle's high becomes a pivot high (PH).
• When price closes above a bullish CISD level, the lowest candle's low becomes a pivot low (PL).
• If the new PH is above the previous PH, it’s labeled as HH (Higher High); otherwise, LH (Lower High).
• If the new PL is below the previous PL, it’s labeled as LL (Lower Low); otherwise, HL (Higher Low).
________________________________________
Internal Market Structure:
• A series of HHs indicates a bullish internal structure.
• A series of LLs indicates a bearish internal structure.
________________________________________
Swing (Main) Market Structure:
Using internal pivots and previous swing levels, the main market structure is derived.
• A new swing high (SH) requires the price to move above the previous SH.
• A new swing low (SL) requires the price to move below the previous SL.
________________________________________
Probability Calculation:
Pivot levels forming the internal structure are coded as five-element sequences.
There are 64 possible combinations of such sequences made from consecutive PH and PL values.
Each pattern’s frequency from its starting candle is tracked.
To make it more understandable:
For example, after the four-sequence “HH, LL, LH,HL”, either HH or LH might follow.
The table shows the statistical likelihood of both possible outcomes for the most recent four-element sequence on the chart.
________________________________________
How reliable is it?
To assess reliability, results are calculated from the beginning using:
Success Rate (Suc. Rt) = Number of Correct Predictions / Total Predictions
This value is added to the table for reference.
It’s important to note that no statistical outcome guarantees certainty—every result offers a different interpretation. What truly matters is to avoid getting stopped out 😊.
________________________________________
Menu Options:
Show/hide preferences and color selections can be customized via the indicator menu.
________________________________________
What’s Coming in Future Versions?
Features such as FVG (Fair Value Gaps) between swing levels, volume imbalances, order blocks / mitigation blocks, Fibonacci levels, and relevant trade suggestions will be added.
________________________________________
This is a BETA version that I believe will help simplify your market reading. I’d be happy to hear your feedback and suggestions.
Cheerful Trading!

The Asia, London, and RTH boxes help you frame your trading day. The highs and lows of these sessions are often critical levels of support and resistance.
Breakouts from these session ranges can lead to strong directional moves.
Leverage the STATS TABLE:
Use the "Break" and "Hit" columns to quickly confirm when key levels have been breached or revisited.
The "Direction" row gives you a quick sentiment reading based on the 9 AM candle.
The "Trades Back %" and "High/Low Forms" provide a statistical edge by showing you the historical likelihood of certain price behaviors based on the time of day. This can help you decide whether to play for a breakout or a retracement.
Langlands-Operadic Möbius Vortex (LOMV)Langlands-Operadic Möbius Vortex (LOMV)
Where Pure Mathematics Meets Market Reality
A Revolutionary Synthesis of Number Theory, Category Theory, and Market Dynamics
🎓 THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
The Langlands-Operadic Möbius Vortex represents a groundbreaking fusion of three profound mathematical frameworks that have never before been combined for market analysis:
The Langlands Program: Harmonic Analysis in Markets
Developed by Robert Langlands (Fields Medal recipient), the Langlands Program creates bridges between number theory, algebraic geometry, and harmonic analysis. In our indicator:
L-Function Implementation:
- Utilizes the Möbius function μ(n) for weighted price analysis
- Applies Riemann zeta function convergence principles
- Calculates quantum harmonic resonance between -2 and +2
- Measures deep mathematical patterns invisible to traditional analysis
The L-Function core calculation employs:
L_sum = Σ(return_val × μ(n) × n^(-s))
Where s is the critical strip parameter (0.5-2.5), controlling mathematical precision and signal smoothness.
Operadic Composition Theory: Multi-Strategy Democracy
Category theory and operads provide the mathematical framework for composing multiple trading strategies into a unified signal. This isn't simple averaging - it's mathematical composition using:
Strategy Composition Arity (2-5 strategies):
- Momentum analysis via RSI transformation
- Mean reversion through Bollinger Band mathematics
- Order Flow Polarity Index (revolutionary T3-smoothed volume analysis)
- Trend detection using Directional Movement
- Higher timeframe momentum confirmation
Agreement Threshold System: Democratic voting where strategies must reach consensus before signal generation. This prevents false signals during market uncertainty.
Möbius Function: Number Theory in Action
The Möbius function μ(n) forms the mathematical backbone:
- μ(n) = 1 if n is a square-free positive integer with even number of prime factors
- μ(n) = -1 if n is a square-free positive integer with odd number of prime factors
- μ(n) = 0 if n has a squared prime factor
This creates oscillating weights that reveal hidden market periodicities and harmonic structures.
🔧 COMPREHENSIVE INPUT SYSTEM

- Asset-specific: Crypto 15-25, Stocks 30-40, Forex 35-45
L-Function Critical Strip (0.5-2.5, default 1.5):
Controls Riemann zeta convergence precision:
- Higher values: More stable, smoother signals
- Lower values: More reactive, catches quick moves
- High frequency: 0.8-1.2, Medium: 1.3-1.7, Low: 1.8-2.3
Frobenius Trace Period (5-50, default 21):
Galois representation lookback for price-volume correlation:
- Measures harmonic relationships in market flows
- Scalping: 8-15, Day Trading: 18-25, Swing: 25-40

- Conservative: 4-5 strategies (higher confidence)
- Moderate: 3-4 strategies (balanced approach)
- Aggressive: 2-3 strategies (more frequent signals)
Category Agreement Threshold (2-5, default 3):
Democratic voting minimum for signal generation:
- Higher agreement: Fewer but higher quality signals
- Lower agreement: More signals, potential false positives
Swiss-Cheese Mixing (0.1-0.5, default 0.382):
Golden ratio φ⁻¹ based blending of trend factors:
- 0.382 is φ⁻¹, optimal for natural market fractals
- Higher values: Stronger trend following
- Lower values: More contrarian signals
OFPI Configuration:

Strong/Weak Candle FinderStrong/Weak Candle Finder (SWCF)
Overview:
The Strong/Weak Candle Finder (SWCF) is a versatile TradingView indicator designed to help traders identify statistically significant candles based on their size relative to recent historical price action. By analyzing a lookback period, the indicator dynamically calculates a threshold to classify candles as either "strong" (larger than the threshold) or "weak" (smaller than the threshold), providing visual cues directly on your chart.
This tool can be invaluable for traders looking to:
Spot potential momentum breakouts or high volatility (Strong Candles).
Identify periods of consolidation or low volatility (Weak Candles).
Gauge shifts in market sentiment based on candle body or range dynamics.
How It Works:
Candle Size Calculation: You choose how candle size is measured from four methods:
High - Low: The full range of the candle.
High - Close: The distance from the high to the close.
Open - Close: The size of the candle body.
Low - Open: The distance from the low to the open.
Historical Analysis: The indicator looks back over a user-defined LookBack Period to collect candle sizes.
Grouping & Precision: To smooth the distribution, candle sizes are grouped based on the Group Precision Size. This parameter divides the observed range of candle sizes into a set number of "bins," and individual candle sizes are rounded to the nearest representative value of these bins.
Percentile Threshold: A dynamic Outlier Pip Value is calculated based on the Outlier Percentile you set.
If Display Mode is "Strong Candles," this threshold represents the Nth percentile of the largest candle sizes (e.g., the 80th percentile if Outlier Percentile is 20%). Candles larger than this are marked as "Strong."
If Display Mode is "Weak Candles," this threshold represents the Nth percentile of the smallest candle sizes (e.g., the 20th percentile). Candles smaller than this are marked as "Weak."
Visual Markers: When a current candle meets the criteria (strong or weak based on your display mode), a configurable shape is plotted above (for strong) or below (for weak) the candle.
Resampling: The historical distribution and outlier threshold are recalculated every Resample Period (number of bars) to adapt to changing market conditions.
Key Features:
Dynamic Thresholds: Adapts to market volatility instead of using fixed pip values.
Customizable Candle Definition: Choose from four methods to define what "candle size" means to your strategy.
Flexible Display Modes: Focus on either identifying exceptionally strong candles or unusually weak ones.
Adjustable Sensitivity: Fine-tune the rarity of signals with Outlier Percentile and Group Precision Size.
Visual Chart Markers: Clear, customizable shapes (arrow, circle, etc.) for easy identification.
Periodic Recalculation: Ensures the indicator remains relevant as market dynamics evolve.
Parameters:
Display Mode:
Strong Candles: Highlights candles larger than the upper percentile threshold.
Weak Candles: Highlights candles smaller than the lower percentile threshold.
Resample Period (Candles): How often (in bars) to recalculate the historical distribution and outlier threshold.
LookBack Period (Candles): The number of past candles to analyze for the historical distribution. (Note: Plots will only begin after this many bars have loaded on the chart).
Group Precision Size: Number of groups to divide the candle size range into for rounding historical sizes. Higher values mean finer precision (less rounding).
Outlier Percentile (%): The percentile used to define the threshold for strong/weak candles.
Candle Size Method: (High-Low, High-Close, Open-Close, Low-Open).
Visuals:
Strong Shape: Choose the icon style for strong candles.
Weak Shape: Choose the icon style for weak candles.
Shape Size: Adjust the size of the plotted icons.
How to Use:
Strong Candles:
May indicate increased momentum, potential breakout confirmations, or high conviction moves.
Consider using in trending markets or as a filter for entry signals.
Weak Candles:
May signal market indecision, low volatility, consolidation phases, or potential exhaustion of a prior move.
Can be useful for identifying range-bound conditions or periods to be cautious.
Experimentation: Adjust the LookBack Period, Outlier Percentile, and Group Precision Size to match your trading style and the characteristics of the asset you are trading. What constitutes "strong" or "weak" can vary significantly.
Confirmation Tool: Use in conjunction with other indicators (e.g., moving averages, RSI, volume) for more robust trading decisions.
Important Notes:
The indicator requires sufficient historical data (LookBack Period) to initialize. You may not see plots on the chart immediately if there aren't enough bars loaded.
Like all indicators, the SWCF is not a standalone trading system and should not be used as the sole basis for financial decisions.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use appropriate risk management.
We hope you find the Strong/Weak Candle Finder a valuable addition to your trading toolkit!
1M Scalp Setup – 2ndHi/2ndLo Breakout1M Scalp Setup – 2ndHi/2ndLo Breakout
This script is designed for 1-minute chart scalpers seeking high-probability intraday breakout setups based on early session price action. The strategy revolves around identifying the first high and low of the day, and then detecting the second breach (2nd high or 2nd low) to anticipate breakout entries.
🔍 Core Logic:
EMA Filter : A configurable EMA (default 8-period) is plotted for trend context.
1st High/Low Detection : Captures the very first high and low of each trading day.
2nd High/Low Markers : Identifies the second time price breaks the initial high or low, acting as a potential signal zone.
Breakout Signals :
A Buy Signal is triggered when price closes above the 2nd high.
A Sell Signal is triggered when price closes below the 2nd low.
Each signal is only triggered once per day to reduce noise and avoid overtrading.
🖌️ Visual Markers:
1stHi and 1stLo : Early session levels (red and green).
2ndHi and 2ndLo : Key breakout reference points (purple and blue).
B and S Labels : Buy and Sell triggers marked in real-time once breakouts occur.
⚙️ Inputs:

This tool is best used in fast-moving markets or during high-volume sessions. Combine with volume or higher-timeframe confirmation for improved accuracy.
Enhanced BTC Order Block IndicatorThe script you provided is an "Enhanced BTC Order Block Indicator" written in Pine Script v5 for TradingView. It is designed to identify and visually mark Order Blocks (OBs) on a Bitcoin (BTC) price chart, specifically tailored for a high-frequency scalping strategy on the 5-minute (M5) timeframe. Order Blocks are key price zones where institutional traders are likely to have placed significant buy or sell orders, making them high-probability areas for reversals or continuations. The script incorporates customizable filters, visual indicators, and alert functionality to assist traders in executing the strategy outlined earlier.
Key Features and Functionality
Purpose:
The indicator detects bullish Order Blocks (buy zones) and bearish Order Blocks (sell zones) based on a predefined percentage price movement (default 0.5–1%) and volume confirmation.
It marks these zones on the chart with colored boxes and provides alerts when an OB is detected.
User-Configurable Inputs:
Price Move Range: minMovePercent (default 0.5%) and maxMovePercent (default 1.0%) define the acceptable price movement range for identifying OBs.
Volume Threshold: volumeThreshold (default 1.5x average volume) ensures OB detection is backed by significant trading activity.
Lookback Period: lookback (default 10 candles) determines how many previous candles are analyzed to find the last candle before a strong move.
Wick/Body Option: useWick (default false) allows users to choose whether the OB zone is based on the candle’s wick or body.
Colors: bullishOBColor (default green) and bearishOBColor (default red) set the visual appearance of OB boxes.
Box Extension: boxExtension (default 100 bars) controls how far the OB box extends to the right on the chart.
RSI Filter: useRSI (default true) enables an RSI filter, with rsiLength (default 14), rsiBullishThreshold (default 50), and rsiBearishThreshold (default 50) for trend confirmation.
M15 Support/Resistance: useSR (default true) and srLookback (default 20) integrate M15 timeframe swing highs and lows for additional OB validation.
Core Logic:
Bullish OB Detection: Identifies a strong upward move (0.5–1%) with volume above the threshold. It then looks back to the last bearish candle before the move to define the OB zone. RSI > 50 and proximity to M15 support/resistance (optional) enhance confirmation.
Bearish OB Detection: Identifies a strong downward move (0.5–1%) with volume confirmation, tracing back to the last bullish candle. RSI < 50 and M15 resistance proximity (optional) add validation.
The OB zone is drawn as a rectangle from the high to low of the identified candle, extended rightward.
Visual Output:
Boxes: Uses box.new to draw OB zones, with left set to the previous bar (bar_index ), right extended by boxExtension, top and bottom defined by the OB’s high and low prices. Each box includes a text label ("Bullish OB" or "Bearish OB") and is semi-transparent.
Colors distinguish between bullish (green) and bearish (red) OBs.
Alerts:
Global alertcondition definitions trigger notifications for "Bullish OB Detected" and "Bearish OB Detected" when the respective conditions are met, displaying the current close price in the message.
Helper Functions:
f_priceChangePercent: Calculates the percentage price change between open and close prices.
isNearSR: Checks if the price is within 0.2% of M15 swing highs or lows for support/resistance confluence.
How It Works
The script runs on each candle, evaluating the current price action against the user-defined criteria.
When a bullish or bearish move is detected (meeting the percentage, volume, RSI, and S/R conditions), it identifies the preceding candle to define the OB zone.
The OB is then visualized on the chart, and an alert is triggered if configured in TradingView.
Use Case
This indicator is tailored for your BTC scalping strategy, where trades last 1–15 minutes targeting 0.3–0.5% gains. It helps traders spot institutional order zones on the M5 chart, confirmed by secondary M1 analysis, and integrates with your use of EMAs, RSI, and volume. The customizable settings allow adaptation to varying market conditions or personal preferences.
Limitations
The M15 S/R detection is simplified (using swing highs/lows), which may not always align perfectly with manual support/resistance levels.
Alerts depend on TradingView’s alert system and require manual setup.
Performance may vary with high volatility or low-volume periods, necessitating parameter adjustments.
ICT HTF Candles [Pro] (fadi)The ICT HTF Candles shows you multi-timeframe price action by plotting up to six higher timeframe candles on your chart, scaled to real price levels. Set candle counts per timeframe or toggle them off for a clean view, saving you time switching between charts. This helps you spot trends and reversals quickly, align trades with the market’s direction, and time setups like sweeps or bounces better. From scalping on the 1m to swinging on the 4H, it simplifies ICT and Smart Money Concepts (SMC), revealing trend shifts and institutional moves clearly. Once you use it, trading without this clarity just won’t feel right.
Key Features:
In-Depth Price Action Levels
These levels track ICT PD arrays and confluences across timeframes, making it easy to see how price action flows from higher timeframes and what your setup faces. Is your 5m trade about to run into a 1H bearish order block? Did it bounce off a higher timeframe FVG and create an SMT with a correlated asset? They make your chart a clear roadmap to market structure, helping you find strong setups, save time, and align with institutional moves:
Change in State of Delivery (CISD): In ICT trading, CISD marks potential reversal levels on each timeframe by showing the open of the highest series of up (green) candles for a bullish shift or the open of the lowest series of down (red) candles for a bearish shift. These levels are set at the opening price of the first candle in those runs, highlighting where the market turns. The indicator makes these levels easy to spot across timeframes, so you can track reversal points clearly. You can set your own confirmation criteria—a close or wick above/below the CISD line (bearish/bullish) or a close or wick above/below the high/low—to verify the CISD level cross. When confirmed, there is a high probability that we have a change in trend, and a reversal order block forms. CISD helps you track these reversal levels and confirm market shifts, making multi-timeframe analysis straightforward.
Order Blocks: When a CISD level cross is confirmed, the price is now below a series of up (green) candles or above a series of down (red) candles, marking these candles as order blocks that usually support the new trend direction. The indicator shows these levels clearly across timeframes, making it easy to spot high-probability reversal or consolidation areas. Keep in mind that price may sometimes move to mitigate an imbalance, so use your best judgment based on your multi-timeframe analysis to confirm they meet your trading criteria.
Trend Bias: Traders often struggle figuring out market bias—guessing the trend wrong, losing on trades against the flow, or missing how lower and higher timeframes line up. The Trend Bias feature tracks order blocks and change in state of delivery, displaying bullish or bearish trends for each timeframe to help you choose trades that go with the market’s direction. The indicator shows these trends clearly across timeframes, so you can quickly see if the 5m matches the 1H or if you’re going against the bigger trend. This makes it easier to avoid bad trades and make decisions faster, keeping you on track with setups that follow the main trend.
Immediate Rebalance: When looking at price action, you’ll see the market doesn’t usually leave behind many Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). That’s because the market is efficient and always rebalancing any inefficiencies. When the market starts a strong move, the last candle will usually close above the previous candle high (for up moves) or below the low (for down moves). At this point, the market will do one of two things: immediately rebalance by retracing first, or have a small retracement but leave behind an FVG. The Immediate Rebalance feature tracks rebalance levels across multiple timeframes, clearly showing where price rebalances. This helps traders have a better expectation of how the market may need to retrace and anticipate Power of Three (PO3) setups by being ready for a Judas swing to rebalance the imbalance.
Fair Value Gaps and Volume Imbalances: If the market fails to immediately rebalance, it will usually attempt to come back and rebalance it at a later time. FVGs and VIs give you a clear area where the price might be heading if it starts breaking structure on lower timeframes. These inefficiencies—price gaps (FVGs) or aggressive moves (VIs)—show where the market’s working to fix imbalances. The Fair Value Gaps and Volume Imbalances feature tracks these levels across timeframes.
Previous Candle Levels: The Previous Candle Levels feature marks the high, low, and middle of the prior candle on each timeframe, helping you identify key price levels for sweeps, bounces, or breakouts. It tracks the candle’s high and low as its extremes and the middle as the 50% mark, which you can set to calculate using the high-to-low range or the open-to-close range. These levels can provide tradable setups on lower timeframes.
Smart Money Techniques (SMT): What’s an ICT indicator without an SMT feature to track cracks in correlated assets? The ICT HTF Candles monitors your chosen correlated assets, like EUR/USD and GBP/USD or SQ and NQ, for signs of strength or weakness to use as confluence with other features and build the case for A+ setups. The SMT feature spots divergences when one asset makes a higher high or lower low while the other doesn’t follow, hinting at potential reversals or market shifts. It tests SMT using two immediate candles, since higher timeframes (HTFs) create larger gaps on lower timeframes. Traders can easily see these divergence levels, like a 15m SMT lining up with a 1H order block or CISD, helping you confirm high-probability setups and strengthen trade entries with multi-timeframe confluence.

Breakout Swing High LowThis open-source indicator identifies swing high and swing low breakouts, providing clear visual signals for potential trend entries. It is designed for traders who use price action to spot breakout opportunities in trending markets.
How It Works
Swing Detection: The indicator uses a user-defined lookback period (default: 4 candles) to identify swing highs (peaks) and swing lows (troughs). A swing high is confirmed when a candle's high is higher than the surrounding candles, and a swing low is confirmed when a candle's low is lower.
Breakout Signals: A green triangle below the candle signals a breakout above the most recent swing high, indicating a potential buy opportunity. A red triangle above the candle signals a breakout below the most recent swing low, indicating a potential sell opportunity. Each swing level triggers only one breakout signal to avoid clutter.
Visualization: Swing high levels are drawn as green dashed lines, and swing low levels as red dashed lines, extending 15 candles for clarity. Breakout signals are marked with small triangles.
How to Use
Apply the Indicator: Add the indicator to your TradingView chart.
Adjust Lookback: Set the "Lookback Candles" input (default: 4) to control the sensitivity of swing detection. Smaller values detect shorter-term swings, while larger values identify more significant levels.
Interpret Signals:
Green triangle (below candle): Consider a buy opportunity when price breaks above a swing high.
Red triangle (above candle): Consider a sell opportunity when price breaks below a swing low.
Combine with Other Tools: Use in conjunction with trend indicators (e.g., 50-period EMA) or support/resistance levels to filter signals in trending markets.
Timeframes: Works best on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H) in trending markets to avoid false breakouts in sideways conditions.
Dynamic Liquidity Depth [BigBeluga]
Dynamic Liquidity Depth
A liquidity mapping engine that reveals hidden zones of market vulnerability. This tool simulates where potential large concentrations of stop-losses may exist — above recent highs (sell-side) and below recent lows (buy-side) — by analyzing real price behavior and directional volume. The result is a dynamic two-sided volume profile that highlights where price is most likely to gravitate during liquidation events, reversals, or engineered stop hunts.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Two-Sided Liquidity Profiles:
Plots two separate profiles on the chart — one above price for potential sell-side liquidity , and one below price for potential buy-side liquidity . Each profile reflects the volume distribution across binned zones derived from historical highs and lows.
Real Stop Zone Simulation:
Each profile is offset from the current high or low using an ATR-based buffer. This simulates where traders might cluster their stop-losses above swing highs (short stops) or below swing lows (long stops).
Directional Volume Analysis:
Buy-side volume is accumulated only from bullish candles (close > open), while sell-side volume is accumulated only from bearish candles (close < open). This directional filtering enhances accuracy by capturing genuine pressure zones.
Dynamic Volume Heatmap:
Each liquidity bin is rendered as a horizontal box with a color gradient based on volume intensity:
- Low activity bins are shaded lightly.
- High-volume zones appear more vividly in red (sell) or lime (buy).
- The maximum volume bin in each profile is emphasized with a brighter fill and a volume label.
Extended POC Zones:
The Point of Control (PoC) — the bin with the most volume — is extended backwards across the entire lookback period to mark critical resistance (sell-side) or support (buy-side) levels.
Total Volume Summary Labels:
At the center of each profile, a summary label displays Total Buy Liquidity and Total Sell Liquidity volume.
This metric helps assess directional imbalance — when buy liquidity is dominant, the market may favor upward continuation, and vice versa.
Customizable Profile Granularity:
You can fine-tune both Resolution (Bins) and Offset Distance to adjust how far profiles are displaced from price and how many levels are calculated within the ATR range.
🔵 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator calculates an ATR-based buffer above highs and below lows to define the top and bottom of the liquidity zones.
Using a user-defined lookback period, it scans historical candles and divides the buffered zones into bins.
Each bin checks if bullish (or bearish) candles pass through it based on price wicks and body.
Volume from valid candles is summed into the corresponding bin.
When volume exists in a bin, a horizontal box is drawn with a width scaled by relative volume strength.
The bin with the highest volume is highlighted and optionally extended backward as a zone of importance.
Total buy/sell liquidity is displayed with a summary label at the side of the profile.
🔵 USAGE/b]
Identify Stop Hunt Zones: High-volume clusters near swing highs/lows are likely liquidation zones targeted during fakeouts.
Fade or Follow Reactions: Price hitting a high-volume bin may reverse (fade opportunity) or break with strength (confirmation breakout).
Layer with Other Tools: Combine with market structure, order blocks, or trend filters to validate entries near liquidity.
Adjust Offset for Sensitivity: Use higher offset to simulate wider stop placement; use lower for tighter scalping zones.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Dynamic Liquidity Depth transforms raw price and volume into a spatial map of liquidity. By revealing areas where stop orders are likely hidden, it gives traders insight into price manipulation zones, potential reversal levels, and breakout traps. Whether you're hunting for traps or trading with the flow, this tool equips you to navigate liquidity with precision.
