NCAT Supply & Demand Zones (BoS + Retest Fade)NCAT for TradingView draws Supply and Demand zones based on a simple Break of Structure (BoS) approach using pivot highs/lows.
When a bullish BoS occurs, it searches back for the most recent qualifying bearish “base candle” and creates a Demand zone.
When a bearish BoS occurs, it searches back for the most recent qualifying bullish “base candle” and creates a Supply zone.
Core logic
Structure (BoS): detected when price closes beyond the last pivot high/low.
Base candle selection: searches back a configurable number of bars and requires a minimum candle body size.
Zone source: draw zone from Wick (high/low) or Open (open + wick boundary depending on zone type).
Zone behavior: zones extend to the right, can fade on retests, and optionally delete when broken by a close beyond the distal line.
Inputs
Session filter (optional): only create new zones during a user-defined session/timezone.
Pivot length: controls pivot detection sensitivity.
Search back / Min body points: controls base candle qualification.
Extend / Max zones / Fade controls: manage performance and chart clutter.
Midline: optional 50% level visualization.
Notes
This is an educational tool and does not predict market direction.
Different symbols have different “point” conventions; adjust “Min body size (points)” accordingly.

📊 WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES
This comprehensive Market Internals Dashboard monitors real-time NYSE and NASDAQ market breadth indicators to help traders identify:
Market Bias - Is the overall market bullish, bearish, or neutral?
Market Strength - How strong is the current move?
Divergences - Are internals confirming price action or warning of reversal?
Chop Zones - When to avoid trading due to choppy conditions
Extreme Levels - Overbought/oversold conditions for potential fades
Sector Rotation - Is money flowing to Value (NYSE) or Tech (NASDAQ)?
Key Market Internals Tracked:
NYSE Internals:
USI:TICK - Net advancing vs declining stocks
USI:ADD - Advance/Decline Line
USI:VOLD - Volume difference (up vol - down vol)
Volume Ratio - Up volume / Down volume
Cumulative TICK - Session momentum
NASDAQ Internals:
USI:TICKQ - NASDAQ tick indicator
USI:ADDQ - NASDAQ Advance/Decline
USI:VOLDQ - NASDAQ volume difference
NASDAQ Volume Ratio
Cumulative TICKQ
Additional Features:
TVC:VIX - Volatility index for risk sentiment
Volume Pulse - Institutional volume detection
TICK Delta - Momentum acceleration/deceleration

🎯 HOW THIS HELPS YOUR TRADING
1. Confirmation of Bias
If you're looking for longs, check if NYSE/NASDAQ show bullish alignment
Strong confluence when both markets agree with your directional bias
Avoid counter-trend trades when internals strongly oppose your setup
2. Timing Entries
Wait for internals alignment before entering
Use extreme levels for fade opportunities (mean reversion)
TICK Delta shows acceleration - enter on momentum confirmation
3. Risk Management
CHOP DETECTION warns when conditions are unfavorable
Reduce position size or stay flat during "DANGER ZONE" readings
Exit trades early if internals flip against your position
4. Divergence Alerts
When VOLD rises but price falls = potential bullish reversal
When VOLD falls but price rises = potential bearish reversal
Early warning system before price confirms the reversal
5. Session Context
Cumulative TICK shows session-wide bias
"Strong Bull Session" = favor longs, be selective with shorts
"Strong Bear Session" = favor shorts, be selective with longs

MARAL Execution WorkflowOverview
MARAL Execution Workflow is a discretionary execution decision-support indicator designed to organize market context into a consistent workflow. It is not an automated trading system, does not place orders, and does not predict outcomes.
Meaning of MARAL: Market Alignment + Risk Awareness + Logic-based execution gating — a structured workflow framework designed to improve clarity and consistency in discretionary execution.
This tool supports discretionary decision-making across three stages: Context → Qualification → Management.
It extends analysis beyond entry by supporting post-entry decisions such as: Should I stay? Should I reduce risk? Should I exit? Or should I wait? These are decision-support questions, not predictions.
Key Features
9-Layer Framework + 3 Boards + EDC
The script uses a 9-layer framework coordinated by a centralized decision-state layer (EDC). Each layer has a defined role:
1. Directional Context (Trend/Bias Layer) — establishes a directional preference using configurable bias filters.
2. Higher-Timeframe Context (HTF Layer) — anchors execution to broader context when enabled.
3. Structure Mapping (Swing/Structure Layer) — identifies structural behavior (highs/lows) to frame decision areas.
4. Location / Proximity Awareness (Obstacle Layer) — evaluates proximity to likely reaction areas for risk awareness.
5. Momentum Quality (Momentum Layer) — distinguishes healthier follow-through vs weakening/choppy conditions.
6. Volatility / Stability Regime (VOL/REGIMI) evaluates volatility using ATR% thresholds and regime support using ADX.
7. Pre-Entry Qualification (Checklist Layer) — confirms whether minimum execution conditions are satisfied before entry.
8. Post-Entry Management Context (Management Layer) — monitors changing conditions after a setup for discretionary management.
9. Liquidity Context (Liquidity Layer) — integrates liquidity-based location context using PDH/PDL proximity, sweep/reclaim behavior, and lookback extreme breaks. When enabled, the script may also plot liquidity reference points for visual mapping.
Liquidity Regime States (Panel Output)
The Liquidity Layer displays a 3-state liquidity regime used for execution risk awareness:
• HIGH — a liquidity event is detected (e.g., sweep/reclaim or lookback extreme break).
• NEUTRAL — no event, but liquidity is nearby (proximity to PDH/PDL within a defined threshold).
• LOW — no event and no nearby liquidity pressure detected.
These are context/risk states used for discretionary gating — not buy/sell signals and not outcome predictions.
Boards
• Context Board — summarizes direction, HTF context, structure, momentum, volatility (ATR%), trend regime (ADX), scores, and liquidity context.
• Qualification Gate — rule-based checklist view to confirm minimum execution conditions before entry.
• Management Desk — post-setup view to monitor risk changes, obstacle proximity, deterioration cues, and management states.
EDC — Execution Decision Core
EDC consolidates outputs from the framework into unified workflow states. It applies rule-based gating to reduce conflict when conditions are mixed.
EDC Unified Output States (Decision-Support Only):
• SETUP: WAIT / LONG / SHORT
• ENTRY PERMISSION: ENTER / WAIT / SKIP
• LIQUIDITY: HIGH / NEUTRAL / LOW
• TRADE STATUS: VALID / RISKY / WEAK / —
• ACTION STATE: HOLD / TIGHT SL / SCALE OUT / EXIT / —
— may appear when a state is not applicable (e.g., no active management window is being tracked).
Panels & Labels (Exact On-Chart Meanings)
1) Context Board (Market Environment Snapshot)
• DIRECTION → Bullish / Bearish / Neutral
• H1 CONTEXT / H4 CONTEXT / DAILY CONTEXT → HTF bias states (when enabled). If HTF is disabled, shows OFF.
• STRUCTURE → Bull Struct / Bear Struct / Neutral Struct
• MOMENTUM → BULL / BEAR / NEUTRAL
• VOLATILITY (ATR%) → ATR as a percentage of price (volatility context)
• TREND STRENGTH → ADX context value
• LONG SCORE / SHORT SCORE → internal workflow alignment scores (0–100) with grade: A++ / A+ / A / B / No-Trade
• ALIGNMENT SCORE → combined alignment score used for gating
• LIQUIDITY CONTEXT → HIGH / NEUTRAL / LOW
Important: Scores are internal workflow scoring for filtering/alignment. They are not performance statistics and do not imply guaranteed probability or outcomes.
2) Qualification Gate (Pre-Entry Checklist)
Gate Legend: OK = passes filter, WARN = mixed/caution, BAD = fails filter (execution gated).
• SETUP → WAIT / LONG / SHORT
• HTF CONTEXT → OK / WARN / BAD / —
• STRUCTURE → OK / WARN / BAD / —
• MOMENTUM → OK / WARN / BAD / —
• VOL/REGIME → OK / WARN / BAD / — (Volatility + regime filter; not volume)
o OK = ATR% within thresholds AND ADX meets regime requirement
o WARN = ATR% within thresholds but regime is mixed (ADX below threshold)
o BAD = ATR% outside thresholds
• LIQUIDITY → HIGH / NEUTRAL / LOW
• ALIGNMENT → shows score vs required minimum threshold
• ENTRY PERMISSION → ENTER / WAIT / SKIP
Purpose: reduce forced entries by requiring minimum execution quality.
3) Management Desk (Post-Setup Decision Support)
The Management Desk operates inside an Active Window measured in bars after the last setup (configurable by input). When the management window is not active, some fields may show —.
• TRADE STATUS → VALID / RISKY / WEAK / —
— appears when no active trade state is being tracked (not applicable).
• MARKET PHASE → RANGE / IMPULSE / PULLBACK / CONTINUATION
Environment classification used for management context (not prediction).
• OBSTACLE AHEAD → YES / NO
Proximity risk context (e.g., near PDH/PDL or near swing levels under the script’s logic).
• EXIT PRESSURE → LOW / RISING / HIGH
Management pressure context based on deterioration cues (not a signal).
• MOMENTUM HEALTH → STRONG / WEAKENING / WEAK / NEUTRAL
Follow-through quality context used for management.
• SCORE TREND → IMPROVING / DETERIORATING / STABLE
Direction of the internal workflow score trend (not P&L, not performance).
• RISK STATE → OVEREXTENDED / NORMAL
Overextension context based on distance from EMA vs ATR.
• TRADE AGE → FRESH / MID / LATE / —
Workflow age based on bars since last setup. — when not applicable.
• SL MODE → BE OK / TIGHT / NORMAL / —
Stop-management context used for discretionary risk control. — when not applicable.
• ACTION STATE → HOLD / TIGHT SL / SCALE OUT / EXIT / —
o HOLD = maintain the current plan under present conditions
o TIGHT SL = discretionary prompt to reduce risk by tightening protection
o SCALE OUT = discretionary prompt to partially reduce exposure (partial exit / trim size), typically when obstacle proximity risk is detected
o EXIT = discretionary prompt that conditions deteriorated and exit may be considered
o — = not applicable
• ACTIVE WINDOW → ON / OFF
Shows whether the post-setup management window is active (bars after the last setup, per the “Active Window” input). When OFF, management/trade states may show —.
Optional Modules (Toggleable)
To keep the chart clean and workflow-focused, optional modules can be enabled/disabled:
A) PDH/PDL Reference (Optional)
• Plots Previous Day High / Previous Day Low as structured reference points (risk awareness only).
B) ATR-Based Planning Guides (Optional)
• Optional visual guides for SL / TP1 / TP2 / TP3 based on ATR.
• Visual planning references only. Does not place orders and does not guarantee outcomes.
C) Visual Color Layer (Optional)
• Optional state-based candle coloring for readability only.
D) State Markers (Optional)
• Optional state markers (e.g., LONG/SHORT confirmations). These are state confirmations only, not trade recommendations.
Display & Layout Options
• Display Mode: Mobile / Medium / Desktop
• Mobile Minimal View: optional minimal mode (EDC-only)
• Panel Positioning: 9 anchor positions
(Top Left / Top Center / Top Right / Middle Left / Middle Center / Middle Right / Bottom Left / Bottom Center / Bottom Right)
Why This Is Not a “Mashup”
This publication is not intended to bundle multiple classic indicators as independent buy/sell tools. While it uses familiar building blocks (trend/bias filtering, volatility/regime context, structure references, liquidity context), each component has a defined role inside a single execution workflow:
• Context Board → Qualification Gate → Management Desk organizes information into a consistent discretionary process.
• EDC consolidates multi-layer conditions into unified states using rule-based gating to reduce conflict and prioritize risk awareness.
This is a decision-support framework designed to improve clarity and consistency in discretionary execution. It does not place orders and does not provide guaranteed outcomes.
How to Use (Recommended Workflow)
1. Set context: Use the Context Board to determine directional preference, volatility/regime stability, and location context.
2. Qualify execution: Use the Qualification Gate as the filter. If alignment is not sufficient, avoid forcing entries.
3. Execute with location awareness: Avoid late entries into nearby obstacles. Treat proximity as increased risk.
4. Manage post-setup: Use the Management Desk to monitor risk changes. If states deteriorate, follow your plan (reduce risk, protect, or exit).
5. Stay consistent: Works best with position sizing rules and disciplined confirmation.
Screenshots / Visual Reference (What each panel shows)
Screenshot 1 — Full Workflow View (Desktop)
Shows the complete workflow layout on one chart: Context Board, Qualification Gate, Management Desk, and the EDC (Execution Decision Core) summary together.
Screenshot 2 — Context Board
Shows directional context, HTF context (if enabled), structure mapping, momentum quality, volatility/stability regime (ATR + ADX), and liquidity context (HIGH/NEUTRAL/LOW). This board is used to understand “market alignment” before considering execution.
Screenshot 3 — Qualification Gate (Pre-Entry)
Shows the rule-based checklist view used for discretionary pre-entry qualification. It summarizes SETUP (WAIT/LONG/SHORT), key confluence checks, liquidity context, and ENTRY PERMISSION (ENTER/WAIT/SKIP). This is a gating view—meant to prevent forced entries when alignment is insufficient.
Screenshot 4 — Management Desk (Post-Entry)
Shows post-entry condition monitoring within the active window after the last setup. It highlights trade status shifts (VALID/RISKY/WEAK), obstacle proximity, exit pressure, momentum health, score trend, risk state, SL mode, and action guidance context.
Screenshot 5 — EDC Panel (Execution Decision Core) — Centralized State
Shows the unified decision-support outputs consolidated from the workflow layers and boards into one compact view:
• SETUP: WAIT / LONG / SHORT
• ENTRY PERMISSION: ENTER / WAIT / SKIP
• LIQUIDITY: HIGH / NEUTRAL / LOW
• TRADE STATUS: VALID / RISKY / WEAK
• ACTION STATE: HOLD / TIGHT SL / SCALE OUT / EXIT
These are rule-based guidance states for discretionary execution and risk awareness — not automated actions.
Screenshot 6 — Example –Execution context
The screenshot shows MARAL Execution Workflow applied to XAUUSD on the 1-hour timeframe. All three boards and the EDC panel are visible:
• Context Board (top-right) – Confirms a fully aligned bullish environment: direction and all HTF contexts are Bullish, structure is “Bull Struct”, momentum is “BULL”, volatility (ATR%) is within normal bounds, and the long-side alignment score is high while the short-side score is in “No-Trade” territory. Liquidity Context is “LOW”, indicating limited immediate liquidity pressure.
• Qualification Gate (top-center) – For the same bar, the checklist produces a LONG setup with HTF CONTEXT, STRUCTURE, MOMENTUM and VOL/REGIME all marked OK. Liquidity is LOW, and ALIGNMENT shows “93 / 65”, meaning the current long-side score (93) is above the user-defined minimum threshold (65). ENTRY PERMISSION = ENTER, signaling that, within this framework, execution conditions are sufficiently aligned to allow a discretionary long entry according to the trader’s own plan.
• Management Desk (left) – Once a trade is active, the post-entry view monitors evolving risk. In this example the trade status is VALID and MARKET PHASE is CONTINUATION, while RISK STATE highlights OVEREXTENDED and TRADE AGE is FRESH. MOMENTUM HEALTH = STRONG, SCORE TREND = STABLE, and ACTION STATE = HOLD. This illustrates how the panel can flag extension or emerging pressure without forcing a decision.
• EDC | Execution Decision Core (bottom-right) – The EDC panel consolidates the key states into one unified view: SETUP = LONG, ENTRY PERMISSION = ENTER, LIQUIDITY = LOW, TRADE STATUS = VALID, ACTION STATE = HOLD. These are rule-based guidelines summarizing the interaction between Context, Qualification, Management and liquidity conditions. They are decision-support outputs only; they do not place orders and do not imply any guaranteed outcome.

PyraTime FVG [Pro] | Smart Anchored Price ActionPyraTime FVG is a professional-grade institutional trading suite designed to declutter price action analysis. Unlike standard indicators that flood the chart with infinite zones, this tool uses a proprietary "Velcro" Anchoring Engine that physically snaps Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks to the exact candle geometry.
This tool replaces 4 separate indicators (FVG, Market Structure, Order Blocks, and Trend Dashboard) with a single, performance-optimized Pine Script v6 script.
🎯 Key Features
1. The "Velcro" FVG Engine Most FVG indicators draw boxes that extend infinitely, making charts messy.
Smart Extension: Zones extend to the right but automatically "snap" and cut off the moment price mitigates (fills) them.
Precision Anchoring: Boxes are drawn from the exact wick/body limits of the originating candles—no floating pixels.
Mitigation Tracking: Mitigated zones are instantly dimmed and archived, keeping your chart clean for current price action.
2. Intelligent Structure Mapping (BOS & CHoCH) The script distinguishes between trend continuation and trend reversals:
BOS (Break of Structure): Marked with Dotted Lines. Signals that the current trend is healthy and continuing.
CHoCH (Change of Character): Marked with Solid Lines. Signals a potential major trend reversal (e.g., the first Lower Low after an uptrend).
3. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Scanner A non-intrusive dashboard in the bottom-right corner scans the 1H, 4H, and Daily timeframes in real-time.
IN BULL GAP: Price is currently inside a Higher Timeframe Buying Zone.
IN BEAR GAP: Price is currently inside a Higher Timeframe Selling Zone.
CLEAR: No major HTF obstacles nearby.
📚 How to Trade With This Tool (Tutorial)
Step 1: Check the "Big Picture" Look at the MTF Scanner (Bottom Right).
If the 1H and 4H say "IN BEAR GAP" (Gold), you know the higher timeframe bias is Down. You should prioritize selling opportunities.
Step 2: Wait for Price to Visit a Zone On your current chart (e.g., 5m or 15m), wait for price to enter a Gold FVG (Resistance).
Note: The box will be bright gold. Once price touches it, the script will snap the box to that candle, confirming the test.
Step 3: Confirm with Structure Don't sell blindly. Wait for a CHoCH Label (Change of Character) to appear. This confirms that the short-term uptrend has broken and sellers are stepping in.
Step 4: Target the Opposing Zone Aim for the next unmitigated Teal FVG (Bullish Support) or Order Block below.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
Filter Small Gaps: Uses an ATR filter (default 0.5) to ignore insignificant noise. Increase to 1.0 for a cleaner "Swings Only" view.
Show Midpoint: Toggles a dotted 50% equilibrium line inside every active gap.
Visual Style: Fully customizable colors. Default scheme is PyraTime Desert Gold & Oasis Teal.
Smart Gap Concepts [MarkitTick]💡 This indicator automates the identification and classification of price gaps, commonly known as Fair Value Gaps (FVG) or Imbalances, by integrating market structure and volume analysis. Unlike standard gap detectors that simply highlight empty space on a chart, this script applies algorithmic filters to categorize gaps into three distinct phases of market movement: Breakaway, Runaway, and Exhaustion. This helps traders understand the potential context of a move rather than just seeing a support or resistance zone.
● Originality and Utility
The primary innovation of this tool is its dynamic classification system. It moves beyond visual detection by checking the "why" behind the gap. By referencing Swing Highs and Swing Lows (Market Structure) alongside Volume efficiency, it determines if a gap represents a breakout, a trend continuation, or a climatic end to a move. Additionally, the script features an automated mitigation tracking system that removes gaps from the chart once price has re-tested the midpoint, ensuring the visual workspace remains clean and relevant to current price action.
● Methodology
The script operates on a multi-stage logic engine:
• Gap Detection
It first identifies the core imbalance where the Low of the current bar does not overlap with the High of the bar two periods prior (for bullish gaps), ensuring the intervening candle represents a strong displacement.
• Structural Analysis (Breakaway Gaps)
The script monitors Pivot Highs and Lows. If a gap occurs simultaneously with a close beyond a key structural Pivot, it is classified as a "Breakaway Gap." This signals the potential start of a new trend.
• Volume and Time Analysis (Exhaustion Gaps)
To identify potential reversals, the script looks for "Trend Maturity." If a gap forms after a long duration since the last pivot and is accompanied by a volume spike (defined by the Volume Spike Multiplier), it is labeled as an "Exhaustion Gap."
• Continuation (Runaway Gaps)
If a gap is valid but meets neither the Breakaway nor Exhaustion criteria, it is considered a "Runaway Gap," typically found in the middle of an established trend.
• Dynamic Cleanup
The script tracks the midpoint of every active gap. If price creates a lower low (for bullish gaps) or higher high (for bearish gaps) beyond this midpoint, the gap is considered mitigated and is removed from the screen.
📖 How to Use
Traders can utilize the color-coded classifications to gauge market intent:
Breakaway (Default Blue): Watch these zones for potential trend initiations. These are often high-probability areas for a retest entry after a structure break.
Runaway (Default Orange): These indicate strong momentum. They can be used to trail stop-losses or add to winning positions, as price should ideally not close below these gaps in a healthy trend.
Exhaustion (Default Red): Be cautious when these appear. They suggest the current move is overextended and a reversal or complex pullback may be imminent.
• Exhaustion Gap : A Practical Case Study
• Breakaway Gap: A Practical Case Study
• Runaway Gap : A Practical Case Study
⚙️ Inputs and Settings
Min Gap Size (Points): Filters out insignificant gaps smaller than this threshold.
Structure Lookback: Defines the sensitivity of the Pivot detection (Swing High/Low).
Volume Avg Length & Multiplier: Determines what qualifies as a "Volume Spike" for exhaustion logic.
Trend Maturity: The minimum number of bars required to consider a trend "old" enough for an exhaustion signal.
Visual Settings: Custom colors for each gap type and box extension length.

Market Participation Gradient [Interakktive]Market Participation Gradient (MPG) is a diagnostic oscillator that measures the quality and intensity of market participation by combining price efficiency with activity (volume or a FX-safe proxy) into a single 0–100 score.
Most tools tell you "how much activity exists." MPG focuses on "how effective that activity is," helping you differentiate clean directional participation from absorbed / inefficient participation where effort produces limited directional progress.
█ WHAT IT DOES
- Produces a 0–100 participation score (higher = stronger participation environment)
- Uses color as state context (not buy/sell)
- Classifies participation into four tiers for quick readability
- Includes an optional status-line HUD for at-a-glance context without chart clutter
█ WHAT IT DOES NOT DO
- NO buy/sell signals
- NO entries/exits
- NO alerts by default
- NO repainting / no lookahead (diagnostic context only)
█ HOW TO READ MPG
Level (0–100)
- Higher values = stronger participation environment
- Lower values = thin, drifting participation environment
Color (state language, not direction)
- Teal = Clean participation (efficient movement)
- Magenta = Absorbed participation (high activity, low efficiency)
- Amber = Building / transition state
- Grey = Thin / neutral state
█ TIER SYSTEM
MPG uses four tiers:
- THIN (0–20): low participation environment
- BUILDING (20–40): participation emerging / transitional
- STRONG (40–65): solid participation environment (quality becomes more meaningful)
- EXTREME (65+): very high participation environment (contextually important during events or late-cycle pushes)
█ QUALITY ASSESSMENT (STRONG / EXTREME)
Within STRONG and EXTREME tiers, MPG evaluates participation quality:
- Clean (Teal): Efficiency > 55%
- Absorbed (Magenta): Efficiency < 30% AND Activity > 1.5×
- Neutral (Grey): otherwise (mixed quality)
█ STATUS LINE HUD
MPG can display key values in TradingView's status line:
- Minimal: MPG (0–100) + Tier (0–3)
- Full: adds Direction (-1/0/1) and Quality (-1/0/1)
This provides quick context without tables or on-chart panels.
█ HOW IT WORKS (METHODOLOGY)
MPG combines two independent measurements:
1. Efficiency (0–1)
Efficiency = |Net Displacement| / Total Path Length
- High efficiency = price moved more directly
- Low efficiency = price moved less directly (more back-and-forth)
2. Activity (centered at 1.0)
Activity = Current Volume / Average Volume
- Activity > 1 = above-average activity
- Activity < 1 = below-average activity
FX / indices fallback: If volume is unreliable/unavailable, MPG uses a range-based proxy: (High–Low) / ATR (capped) to prevent distortion.
3. Participation Score (0–100)
Participation = Efficiency × √Activity × 100
The square root applies diminishing returns so activity alone cannot dominate without efficiency support.
█ SETTINGS
Core
- ATR Length — normalization baseline
- Efficiency Lookback — bars used for efficiency
- Volume Average Length — baseline for activity
- Smoothing Length — EMA smoothing (1 = minimal smoothing)
Visuals
- Histogram / Line / Tier Bands toggles
- Optional pane background tint (default OFF)
- Theme: Cinematic (subtle) or Vivid (brighter)
HUD
- Status Line HUD toggle
- HUD Detail: Minimal or Full
█ SUITABLE MARKETS
Works on any market with price data. For symbols with unreliable volume (common in FX), MPG automatically uses the range/ATR activity proxy.
█ RELATED (INTERAKKTIVE)
- MER — Market Efficiency Ratio (pure efficiency)
- ERD — Effort–Result Divergence (effort vs outcome)
- VSI — Volatility State Index (expansion/contraction context)

Flux Momentum Oscillator[BullByte]Flux Momentum Oscillator is a professional-grade momentum analysis system built on an original methodology called Momentum Flux Bars (MFB). Unlike conventional oscillators that measure momentum over fixed time periods, this indicator constructs synthetic momentum bars based on actual price movement, creating a pure representation of directional pressure independent of time-based noise.
This is NOT a mashup or combination of existing indicators. The entire system is built from the ground up around a single cohesive concept: measuring momentum through price-triggered synthetic bars rather than time-triggered calculations.
CORE INNOVATION: MOMENTUM FLUX BARS (MFB)
Traditional momentum indicators calculate values at fixed time intervals, which means a slow, grinding move receives the same measurement weight as a fast, explosive move occurring over the same number of bars. This creates distortion in momentum readings.
Momentum Flux Bars solve this problem by forming only when price travels a volatility-adjusted distance. Each MFB represents genuine directional commitment from market participants.
Key Properties of Momentum Flux Bars:
- Form based on price movement, not time passage
- Automatically adjust their formation threshold based on current volatility
- Capture the velocity of price movement (how quickly each bar forms)
- Record volume participation during formation
- Create a noise-filtered view of true market momentum
The oscillator then analyzes the pattern, velocity, and characteristics of recent MFB formations to produce its readings.
WHY THIS APPROACH MATTERS FOR TRADERS
Time-Based Problem: A 14-period RSI on a choppy day produces the same calculation structure as on a trending day, even though market behavior differs completely. The indicator cannot distinguish between meaningful moves and noise.
Flux-Based Solution: When price chops sideways, fewer MFBs form because price fails to travel the required distance. When price trends strongly, MFBs form rapidly in sequence. The oscillator inherently adapts to actual market behavior.
Practical Benefits:
- Cleaner signals during trending conditions
- Automatic noise reduction during consolidation
- Earlier detection of momentum shifts through velocity analysis
- Reduced false signals in choppy markets
- No manual adjustment needed across different market conditions
COMPLETE FEATURE BREAKDOWN
FEATURE 1: AUTO-OPTIMIZATION ENGINE
The indicator includes an optional auto-optimization system that continuously evaluates different sensitivity parameters and selects the configuration producing the cleanest momentum measurement for current conditions.
How It Works:
- Tests multiple ATR multiplier values against recent price history
- Scores each configuration based on trend capture efficiency
- Automatically applies the optimal setting
- Re-evaluates periodically to adapt to changing conditions
Trader Benefit: Eliminates the guesswork of parameter tuning. The indicator finds its own optimal settings.
FEATURE 2: MARKET REGIME CLASSIFICATION
The system classifies current market conditions into four distinct regimes based on MFB formation patterns:
EXPLOSIVE: Rapid MFB formation with strong directional bias and high volume participation. Indicates powerful trending conditions with high momentum.
STEADY: Consistent MFB formation in a primary direction with normal velocity. Represents healthy, sustainable trends suitable for trend-following approaches.
CONSOLIDATING: Mixed direction MFB formation with decreasing velocity. Suggests range-bound conditions where breakout strategies may be appropriate.
DEAD: Minimal MFB formation activity. Indicates extremely low volatility or market indecision. Often precedes significant moves.
Trader Benefit: Instantly understand current market character and adjust strategy accordingly.
FEATURE 3: VELOCITY DIVERGENCE DETECTION
This advanced feature monitors the formation speed of Momentum Flux Bars and compares it against price direction.
Velocity Divergence Bearish: Price making higher highs but MFBs forming progressively slower. Suggests buying pressure is weakening despite higher prices.
Velocity Divergence Bullish: Price making lower lows but MFBs forming progressively slower. Suggests selling pressure is weakening despite lower prices.
Trader Benefit: Early warning system for potential reversals before they appear on price charts.
FEATURE 4: MOMENTUM EXHAUSTION DETECTION
The system identifies when a trending move may be running out of energy by analyzing the duration pattern of consecutive same-direction MFBs.
Exhaustion Pattern: When each successive MFB in a trend takes progressively longer to form, it indicates diminishing momentum even though direction remains unchanged.
States Displayed:
- BUILDING: Momentum is increasing or stable
- PEAK: Maximum momentum velocity reached
- EXHAUSTING: Progressive slowdown detected
Trader Benefit: Know when a trend is losing steam before price reverses.
FEATURE 5: HIGHER TIMEFRAME ALIGNMENT
The indicator checks whether higher timeframe MFB direction supports or conflicts with current timeframe momentum.
ALIGNED BULL: Both timeframes showing bullish MFB direction
ALIGNED BEAR: Both timeframes showing bearish MFB direction
DIVERGENT: Timeframes showing opposing directions
NEUTRAL: Higher timeframe direction unclear
Trader Benefit: Trade with higher timeframe support for higher probability setups.
FEATURE 6: CHOPPY MARKET DETECTION
A dedicated algorithm analyzes recent MFB patterns to determine if the market is in a choppy, directionless state.
Detection Factors:
- Frequency of direction changes in recent MFBs
- Lack of consecutive same-direction formations
- Weak directional bias in the MFB sequence
Trader Benefit: Avoid trend-following strategies when market conditions do not support them.
FEATURE 7: TREND STRENGTH MEASUREMENT
A percentage-based strength reading derived from MFB pattern analysis.

RECOMMENDED USAGE GUIDELINES
TIMEFRAME RECOMMENDATIONS:
Scalping (1m to 5m):
- Use lower Flux Period (8-10) for faster response
- Focus on oscillator crossovers and histogram momentum
- Regime should be STEADY or EXPLOSIVE for best results
Day Trading (5m to 30m):
- Default settings work well
- Use HTF alignment with 1H or 4H for confirmation
- Avoid trading when regime shows DEAD
Swing Trading (1H to 4H):
- Consider higher Flux Period (18-21) for smoother signals
- Regime classification becomes very valuable
- Velocity divergence provides excellent early warnings
Position Trading (Daily and above):
- Higher Flux Period (21-30) recommended
- Focus on regime changes and exhaustion patterns
- HTF alignment less relevant, oscillator zones more important
ASSET CLASS NOTES:
Forex: Works well on major pairs. Consider slightly higher sensitivity on less volatile pairs.
Crypto: Higher volatility may require lower sensitivity multiplier. Regime detection particularly useful.
Stocks: Excellent for liquid stocks. Less effective on illiquid names due to gappy price action.
Indices: Very effective. Clean price action produces clean MFB patterns.
Commodities: Works well, especially on gold and oil. Adjust sensitivity for different volatility profiles.

WHAT THIS INDICATOR IS NOT
This indicator is NOT:
- A buy/sell signal generator (it provides momentum context, not trade signals)
- A standalone trading system (combine with price action and other analysis)
- A guarantee of profitability (no indicator can guarantee results)
- A replacement for risk management (always use proper position sizing and stops)
- A mashup of existing indicators (this is original methodology)
ORIGINALITY STATEMENT
The Momentum Flux Bars concept was designed specifically to address limitations of time-based momentum calculations.
Every component of this system serves the central MFB methodology:
- The oscillator measures MFB directional weight
- The regime classifier interprets MFB patterns
- The velocity analysis tracks MFB formation speed
- The exhaustion detector monitors MFB duration progression
- The HTF alignment checks MFB direction across timeframes
This is a unified analytical framework, not a collection of separate indicators.
TECHNICAL NOTES
Non-Repainting Confirmation:
All signal generation uses confirmed bar data only. MFB formations occur on bar close. Historical signals will not change after they appear.
Performance Considerations:
Auto-optimization runs periodically, not every bar, to maintain performance.
MFB history is trimmed to prevent memory issues on extended sessions.
Reduce Max MFB History if experiencing performance issues.
Symbol and Timeframe Handling:
The indicator resets its MFB history when symbol or timeframe changes.
This ensures clean analysis without carryover from previous contexts.

Pivot Levels [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Pivot Levels indicator automatically detects and draws key market pivot levels across multiple sensitivity settings. Each pivot level represents a significant local high or low in price structure, acting as potential zones of support and resistance. Traders can visualize short-, medium-, and long-term pivot layers simultaneously, helping to identify where price may react, reverse, or break out.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Different pivot lengths provide multi-length sensitivity on the same timeframe — shorter lengths detect local micro-swings, while longer lengths capture broader swing structure within the current chart.
ATR-based color logic marks active, bullish, or bearish pivot zones dynamically.
Lines can extend to the right or both sides to track reactions over time.
🔵 FEATURES
Detects up to four custom pivot levels simultaneously.
Each pivot level has independent settings for length , style , and extension mode .
Auto-colors each pivot as support (green), resistance (orange), or active zone (blue).
Displays dual-width line layers: a solid base and a transparent overlay for visual depth.
Dynamic price labels show exact pivot levels for clarity.
Fully customizable line styles: dashed (--), solid (-), or dotted (..).
Extends lines to the right for future reaction tracking or both directions for structure alignment.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Enable or disable pivot levels (1–4) to control how many layers of structure you want visible.
Use shorter pivot lengths for intraday turning points and longer ones for macro structure.
Watch for multiple pivot lines clustering in the same region — these often mark strong reversal zones.
Observe color changes: green = support, orange = resistance, blue = active neutral zone.
Combine with price action or volume analysis to confirm reactions near major pivots.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Pivot Levels indicator provides a clean, multi-layered visualization of market structure.
By tracking pivots of varying lengths, traders can easily identify overlapping support and resistance regions, gauge breakout strength, and align trades with the dominant structural zones visible across multiple time horizons.

Mizan v7.8-S: Pure PSI ObserverDescription:
1. General Overview The Mizan v7.8-S is a specialized high-precision market observer designed to quantify the "Ontological Stability" of financial assets. Unlike traditional indicators that rely solely on price action, this tool projects market data onto a proprietary "PSI Scale" to measure the potential energy and structural integrity of a trend. It operates on the "Pure Justice" (Mizan) theoretical framework, distinguishing between constructive stability and chaotic degradation.
2. Key Features
Proprietary PSI Scoring: A unique algorithm that converts market momentum into a standardized stability score (0 - 310,000 Scale).
Stability Protocol Visualization: Automatically colors the trend line to indicate the current state of the asset (Green for Stable/Constructive, Red for Unstable/Chaotic).
Cyclic Time Markers: Includes deterministic time-cycle markers ("Pulse" and "Reset" points) to identify theoretical inflection points in the market rhythm.
Axiom Floor & Peak: Visual references for the theoretical limits of the analyzed asset.
3. How to Use
Trend Analysis: Observe the color of the PSI line. A transition from Red to Green indicates that the asset has crossed the critical threshold and entered a stable trend structure.
Cycle Timing: Use the geometric markers (Diamonds and Circles) to anticipate potential shifts in market rhythm or exhaustion points based on the Mizan temporal constants.
Risk Assessment: The distance of the PSI score from the "Axiom Peak" or "Axiom Floor" provides a perspective on the asset's current potential relative to its theoretical limits.
4. Invite-Only Access This script is a closed-source implementation of a proprietary algorithmic kernel ("Mizan Universal Kernel"). It contains protected logic and experimental constants derived from private research.
Access: Access to this indicator is restricted. To request access or learn more about the methodology, please contact me via private message on TradingView.
Note: This tool is intended for advanced cycle analysis and experimental observation.
Ichimoku + Time Theory Cluster PRO++ (ZZZ)## Ichimoku + Time Theory Cluster PRO++ (ZZZ)
### 1) What does this script do?
**Ichi+Time PRO++** combines **Ichimoku + Ichimoku Time Theory (Hosoda’s time cycles)** to:
- Automatically plot **Ichimoku (Tenkan/Kijun/Chikou/Kumo)** as a **trend filter & support/resistance framework**.
- Calculate **projected time targets** derived from **pivots (swing highs/lows)**, then **cluster** nearby targets into **“time windows”** where the probability of **reversal / acceleration / strong volatility** is higher than usual.
- Show **early warnings (countdown “~in N bars”)** and classify clusters as **Normal / Strong** using a **score**.
> Core idea: **Price can travel far/short based on “price”, but it often turns hard around certain “time” marks.** Ichimoku helps define *direction and key areas*, while Time Clusters tell you *when to be on alert*.
---
### 2) How it works (simple overview)
1. **Detect pivots** (swing highs/lows) using Pivot Left/Right
- A pivot is confirmed only after *pivRight* bars → less noise.
2. From each pivot, the script generates **projected time targets** based on Time Theory cycle offsets (bar intervals).
3. Nearby projections are **grouped into clusters** using **“Tolerance ± bars”**.
4. A cluster is kept only if it meets:
- **Min hits**: minimum number of projections inside the same window
- **Min score**: minimum score threshold
Score = **baseScore (weighted hits)** + **contextBonus (Ichimoku context)**
→ Clusters aligned with favorable Ichimoku conditions are **prioritized**.
---
### 3) What you will see on the chart
- **Ichimoku**: Tenkan / Kijun / Chikou / Kumo (to read trend & key zones).
- **Time Cluster Window**:
- **Normal**: meets baseline conditions.
- **Strong (TC++)**: higher score (≥ strongScore) → more important.
- **Tooltips / info labels** (e.g., hits, base, ctx, score, ~in N bars) show:
- How strong a cluster is
- How many bars remain until the “time window”
---
### 4) Practical usage (recommended workflow)
**Step 1 — Filter the trend with Ichimoku**
- Prefer Long when: price is **above Kumo**, Tenkan > Kijun, Chikou is not obstructed.
- Prefer Short when: price is **below Kumo**, Tenkan < Kijun, Chikou is not obstructed.
**Step 2 — Use Time Clusters to pick the “WHEN”**
- When a **Time Cluster (Normal/Strong)** appears, interpret it as:
- A **“sensitive time window”** → higher chance of reversal, breakout, acceleration, or sharp shakeout.
- Not an automatic entry; you still need **price action confirmation**.
**Step 3 — Entry trigger**
- Wait for confirmation such as: structure break, pin/engulf candle, range breakout, Kijun/Kumo retest, etc.
- **Strong clusters** are often useful to:
- Hunt reversals around Ichimoku zones (Kijun/Kumo)
- Hunt breakouts when consolidating and Ichimoku agrees with the trend
**Step 4 — Risk management**
- Place SL using the nearest structure (swing/pivot/Kijun) + buffer.
- If already in a trade, Time Clusters can help you:
- tighten SL, take partial profits, or anticipate volatility.
---
### 5) Presets (A/B) & signal tuning
- **Mode A: “Fewer but stronger”**
Stricter filtering → fewer clusters, higher quality (swing/position-friendly).
- **Mode B: “More early warnings”**
Moderate filtering → more clusters (good for earlier monitoring and flexibility).
- **Custom**
Manually adjust key parameters:
- Pivot Left/Right
- Tolerance ± bars
- Min hits / Min score / Strong score
- Filter small pivots (reduce noise)
> Tip: Higher timeframes (4H–1D) usually work best with Mode A (cleaner). Lower timeframes (15m–1H) can use Mode B, but require disciplined triggers.
---
### 6) Important notes (avoid misinterpretation)
- Pivots require confirmation → pivot-based signals **do not print exactly at the top/bottom**, but after *pivRight* bars.
- Future **projected clusters may shift** when new pivots appear (they update with new data).
Treat Time Clusters as **time windows to be alert**, not “exact entry points”.
- This script does not replace a trading plan; always use proper position sizing and risk control.
---
### 7) Performance
This script uses many drawing objects (box/label/line). If your device is slow:
- Reduce **Max pivots stored**
- Reduce the number of clusters displayed or switch to **Mode A**
- Use a higher timeframe

## User Guide
### 1) What is this indicator for?
This indicator combines **Auto Ichimoku** + **Time Theory Clusters** to:
- Identify **trend & equilibrium zones** via Ichimoku (Kumo, Tenkan/Kijun, Chikou).
- Find **time windows** with higher probability of volatility/reversal/acceleration (Time Clusters).
- Score each time cluster based on **cluster strength (hits)** and **Ichimoku context (context bonus)**.
> Key reminder: Time Clusters answer **WHEN**, not **WHERE**. Always combine them with **price confirmation / Ichimoku / PA** before entering.
---
### 2) Add the indicator & quick setup
1. Open a chart → **Indicators** → choose **Ichimoku + Time Theory Cluster PRO++**.
2. Recommended timeframes:
- Swing/position: **H4 – D1 – W1**
- Intraday: **M15 – H1** (noisier; needs stricter filtering).
3. Choose **Mode (Preset)**:
- **A: Fewer but stronger** → stricter, fewer signals, higher quality (recommended for swing).
- **B: More early warnings** → more signals (recommended for intraday monitoring).
- **Custom** → fine-tune all parameters.
---
### 3) Signal meaning (how to read the chart)
The indicator marks **Time Clusters** in two levels:
- **Time Cluster Enter (Normal)**: meets minimum thresholds (minHits/minScore).
- **Time Cluster Enter (Strong / TC++)**: strong cluster (score ≥ strongScore) → higher priority.
**Correct interpretation:**
- As price approaches a Time Cluster window, the market is more likely to:
- reverse,
- break out of consolidation,
- accelerate a trend,
- or produce strong volatility (sweep/false break).
- Trading direction should be aligned with **Ichimoku context** (see section 4).
---
### 4) Suggested trading rules (practical & simple)
#### A. Trend trading (recommended)
**Prefer LONG when:**
- Price is **above Kumo**, future Kumo is bullish (Span A > Span B).
- Tenkan is **above** Kijun (or just crossed up), Chikou is not trapped by price/cloud.
- At a Time Cluster:
- Look for a **pullback** to Kijun/Tenkan or structural support,
- Wait for confirmation (engulfing/pinbar/micro-structure break),
- Enter.
**Prefer SHORT when:**
- Price is **below Kumo**, future Kumo is bearish (Span A < Span B).
- Tenkan is **below** Kijun, Chikou is pressured/blocked.
- At a Time Cluster:
- Look for a rally into Kijun/cloud edge,
- Wait for rejection, then enter.
✅ Tip: **Strong clusters (TC++)** matter most when they align with:
- Kumo edge,
- Kijun,
- horizontal S/R,
- supply/demand (order block) or swing high/low.
#### B. Reversal trading (only with strong confirmation)
Consider reversals only when:
- Time Cluster is **Strong (TC++)**
- + you see a **structure shift** (BOS/CHoCH) or a clear reversal candle setup,
- + Ichimoku shows weakness (price inside cloud, flat Tenkan/Kijun, Chikou trapped).
---
### 5) Risk management (mandatory)
- Do not enter just because you “reached a Time Cluster”.
- Always set SL by structure:
- LONG: below swing low / below Kijun / below nearest cloud edge.
- SHORT: above swing high / above Kijun / above nearest cloud edge.
- Take profit using:
- minimum R:R **1:1.5 – 1:2**
- or key targets (prior highs/lows, cloud boundaries, fib levels, etc.)
---
### 6) Inputs explained (Custom mode)
- **Pivot Left / Pivot Right**: pivot confirmation (higher = fewer but more reliable pivots).
- **Max pivots stored**: how many pivots are stored for clustering (more = more sensitive but heavier).
- **Tolerance ± bars**: cluster window width (larger = more clusters; smaller = sharper).
- **Min hits**: minimum overlaps to qualify as a cluster.
- **Min score**: minimum score to accept a cluster.
- **Strong score**: threshold to mark strong clusters (TC++).
- **Filter small pivots / Filter mode**: remove small pivots to reduce noise (recommended ON).
---
### 7) Alerts (recommended)
You can create alerts for:
- **Time Cluster Enter (Normal)**
- **Time Cluster Enter (Strong / TC++)**
Recommendation: set alerts on your main trading timeframe (H1/H4/D1) to avoid spam on very small TFs.

QuantSignals: Integrated Geometric Momentum QualityIntegrated Geometric Momentum Quality is a momentum-quality oscillator designed to complement traditional momentum indicators, not replace them.
While most momentum tools focus on how much price has moved, IGMQ focuses on how efficiently price has moved. It evaluates whether momentum is supported by smooth, directional structure or distorted by noise and volatility.
IGMQ is path-aware rather than purely price-based.
It penalizes volatility that does not contribute to sustained progress, making it especially useful as a momentum filter in systematic or discretionary trading workflows.
IGMQ analyzes price behavior over a rolling window to determine:
Directional strength
Path efficiency
Structural consistency
The output is a normalized momentum quality score that increases when price movement is clean and persistent, and decreases when momentum becomes choppy or unstable.
How to Use It
This indicator works best as a confirmation and filtering tool, alongside indicators such as:
RSI
MACD
Rate of Change
Breakout or trend-following systems
Common applications:
Confirm whether momentum signals are supported by quality structure
Filter out trades during noisy or low-efficiency regimes
Rank symbols by momentum quality
Detect early degradation in trending conditions
Interpreting the Oscillator
Positive values → Upward momentum with structural quality
Negative values → Downward momentum with structural quality
Larger magnitude → Cleaner, more reliable momentum
Values near zero → Low-quality or indecisive movement
This helps distinguish between strong momentum and usable momentum.
