Vacuum Candles [XrayAlgo]The Vacuum Candles indicator helps traders identify inefficient price movements—where the price moves significantly but lacks sufficient volume to support it. These inefficiencies may signal weak trends, potential reversals, or false breakouts/breakdowns.
Inefficient candles are visually marked with a darker / black body to indicate when the price movement is disproportionate to the volume.
1. Spotting Potential Reversals
When the indicator marks an inefficient candle, it signals that the price movement may be unsustainable.
In an uptrend: A inefficient bullish candle suggests that the uptrend is losing momentum, potentially leading to a downward reversal.
In a downtrend: A inefficient bearish candle signals that the downtrend may be weakening, with a potential bullish reversal.
2. Identifying Breakout and Breakdown Failures
This indicator is useful for recognizing false breakouts or false breakdowns.
If price breaks resistance but the candle is inefficient, the breakout may be weak and could fail quickly.
If price breaks support with an inefficient bearish candle, the breakdown could be a false signal, with price reverting back above support.
3. Recognizing Weak Trends
Inefficient candles help you spot when a trend is losing strength and could soon reverse or consolidate.
In an uptrend: A series of dark body bullish candles suggests that the uptrend may be weakening, signaling a potential correction or trend reversal.
In a downtrend: A series of dark body bearish candles suggests that the selling pressure is weakening, indicating a potential bullish reversal.
4. Fine-Tuning Entries and Exits
Inefficient candles offer an opportunity to fine-tune your entries and exits based on weak price moves.
Entering a trade: An inefficient candle near key support or resistance can indicate a reversal, making it a good entry point for a counter-trend position.
Exiting a trade: If you're already in a trend, and an inefficient candle appears, it suggests the trend is losing strength, indicating it may be a good time to exit before a potential reversal.
5. Fine-Tuning with Inputs
The Vacuum Candles indicator includes two key inputs:
Length: The number of candles used to calculate the average price movement and volume. A longer length (e.g., 20-30) smooths out the inefficiencies, while a shorter length (e.g., 10-15) makes the indicator more sensitive to recent price moves.
Multiplier: Controls the threshold for what is considered an inefficient candle:
A higher Multiplier (e.g., 1.5–3) filters out smaller inefficiencies and focuses on large discrepancies.
A lower Multiplier (e.g., 0.1–0.9) captures even smaller inefficiencies in highly efficient markets.

Uptrick: Dynamic Z-Score DeviationOverview
Uptrick: Dynamic Z‑Score Deviation is a trading indicator built in Pine Script that combines statistical filters and adaptive smoothing to highlight potential reversal points in price action. It combines a hybrid moving average, dual Z‑Score analysis on both price and RSI, and visual enhancements like slope‑based coloring, ATR‑based shadow bands, and dynamically scaled reversal signals.
Introduction
Statistical indicators like Z‑Scores measure how far a value deviates from its average relative to the typical variation (standard deviation). Standard deviation quantifies how dispersed a set of values is around its mean. A Z‑Score of +2 indicates a value two standard deviations above the mean, while -2 is two below. Traders use Z‑Scores to spot unusually high or low readings that may signal overbought or oversold conditions.
Moving averages smooth out price data to reveal trends. The Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA) reduces lag and noise through weighted averaging. A Zero‑Lag EMA (approximated here using a time‑shifted EMA) seeks to further minimize delay in following price. The RSI (Relative Strength Index) is a momentum oscillator that measures recent gains against losses over a set period.
ATR (Average True Range) gauges market volatility by averaging the range between high and low over a lookback period. Shadow bands built using ATR give a visual mood of volatility around a central trend line. Together, these tools inform a dynamic but statistically grounded view of market extremes.
Purpose
The main goal of this indicator is to help traders spot short‑term reversal opportunities on lower timeframes. By requiring both price and momentum (RSI) to exhibit statistically significant deviations from their norms, it filters out weak setups and focuses on higher‑probability mean‑reversion zones. Reversal signals appear when price deviates far enough from its hybrid moving average and RSI deviates similarly in the same direction. This makes it suitable for discretionary traders seeking clean entry cues in volatile environments.
Originality and Uniqueness
Uptrick: Dynamic Z‑Score Deviation distinguishes itself from standard reversal or mean‑reversion tools by combining several elements into a single framework:
A composite moving average (ALMA + Zero‑Lag EMA) for a smooth yet responsive baseline
Dual Z‑Score filters on price and RSI rather than relying on a single measure
Adaptive visual elements, including slope‑aware coloring, multi‑layer ATR shadows, and signal sizing based on combined Z‑Score magnitude
Most indicators focus on one aspect—price envelopes or RSI thresholds—whereas Uptrick: Dynamic Z‑Score Deviation requires both layers to align before signaling. Its visual design aids quick interpretation without overwhelming the chart.
Why these indicators were merged
Every component in Uptrick: Dynamic Z‑Score Deviation has a purpose:
• ALMA: provides a smooth moving average with reduced lag and fewer false crossovers than a simple SMA or EMA.
• Zero‑Lag EMA (ZLMA approximation): further reduces the delay relative to price by applying a time shift to EMA inputs. This keeps the composite MA closer to current price action.
• RSI and its EMA filter: RSI measures momentum. Applying an EMA filter on RSI smooths out false spikes and confirms genuine overbought or oversold momentum.
• Dual Z‑Scores: computing Z‑Scores on both the distance between price and the composite MA, and on smoothed RSI, ensures that signals only fire when both price and momentum are unusually stretched.
• ATR bands: using ATR‑based shadow layers visualizes volatility around the MA, guiding traders on potential support and resistance zones.
At the end, these pieces merge into a single indicator that detects statistically significant mean reversions while staying adaptive to real‑time volatility and momentum.
Calculations
1. Compute ALMA over the chosen MA length, offset, and sigma.
2. Approximate ZLMA by applying EMA to twice the price minus the price shifted by the MA length.
3. Calculate the composite moving average as the average of ALMA and ZLMA.
4. Compute raw RSI and smooth it with ALMA. Apply an EMA filter to raw RSI to reduce noise.
5. For both price and smoothed RSI, calculate the mean and standard deviation over the Z‑Score lookback period.
6. Compute Z‑Scores:
• z_price = (current price − composite MA mean) / standard deviation of price deviations
• z_rsi = (smoothed RSI − mean RSI) / standard deviation of RSI
7. Determine reversal conditions: both Z‑Scores exceed their thresholds in the same direction, RSI EMA is in oversold/overbought zones (below 40 or above 60), and price movement confirms directionality.
8. Compute signal strength as the sum of the absolute Z‑Scores, then classify into weak, medium, or strong.
9. Calculate ATR over the chosen period and multiply by layer multipliers to form shadow widths.
10.Derive slope over the chosen slope length and color the MA line and bars based on direction, optionally smoothing color transitions via EMA on RGB channels.
How this indicator actually works
1. The script begins by smoothing price data with ALMA and approximating a zero‑lag EMA, then averaging them for the main MA.
2. RSI is calculated, then smoothed and filtered.
3. Using a rolling window, the script computes statistical measures for both price deviations and RSI.
4. Z‑Scores tell how far current values lie from their recent norms.
5. When both Z‑Scores cross configured thresholds and momentum conditions align, reversal signals are flagged.
6. Signals are drawn with size and color reflecting strength.
7. The MA is plotted with dynamic coloring; ATR shadows are layered beneath to show volatility envelopes.
8. Bars can be colored to match MA slope, reinforcing trend context.
9. Alert conditions allow automated notifications when signals occur.

Fibonacci Levels with MACD ConfirmationHow to Understand and Use the Fibonacci Levels with MACD Confirmation Script
This custom Pine Script is designed to give traders a clear visual framework by combining dynamic Fibonacci retracement levels, MACD histogram confirmation, and volatility-based swing zones. It aims to simplify trend analysis, improve entry timing, and adapt to various market conditions.
How to Interpret the 23.6% & 61.8% Labels
These Fibonacci levels represent key retracement zones where price often reacts during trend pullbacks or reversals.
The 23.6% level indicates a shallow retracement, useful in strong trends where price resumes early.
The 61.8% level is a deeper retracement, often a "last line of defense" before trend invalidation.
The script labels these zones with "CC 23.6" and "CC 61.8" when the price crosses them with MACD histogram confirmation:
Green label (CC) = bullish confirmation
Red label (CC) = bearish confirmation
How to Modify Inputs (Manual Adjustments)
Input Purpose Default How to Use
ATR Period Measures volatility 14 Increase for smoother, slower reactions; reduce for faster swings
Min Lookback Minimum bars for swing zone 20 Avoids short-term noise
Max Lookback Cap for swing zone scan 100 Avoids excessively wide retracement levels
Inverse Candle Chart Flips high/low logic false Enable for inverted analysis or backtesting "opposite logic"
How to Use the Inverse Candle Chart Option
Activating inverse mode flips candle logic:
Highs become negative lows, and vice versa.
Useful for:
Contrarian analysis
Inverse ETFs or short-biased views
Backtesting reverse-pattern behavior
How to Adjust the Style
You can manually personalize the script’s visual appearance:
Change line width in plot(..., linewidth=2) for bolder or thinner Fib levels.
Change colors from color.green, color.red, etc., to suit your theme.
Modify label.size, label.style, and label.color for different labeling visuals.
Customize MACD histogram style from plot.style_columns to other styles like style_histogram.
How the MACD is Set and Displayed
The MACD uses non-standard values:
Fast Length = 24
Slow Length = 52
Signal Smoothing = 18
These values slow down the indicator, reducing noise and aligning better with medium- to long-term trends.
MACD histogram is plotted directly on the main chart for faster, on-screen decision making.
Color-coded histogram:
Green/Lime = Bullish momentum increasing or steady
Red/Maroon = Bearish momentum increasing or steady
How to Use the Indicator in Real-World Trading
This indicator is most effective when used to:
✅ 1. Spot High-Probability Trend Continuation Zones
In a strong trend, price will often retrace to 23.6% or 61.8%, then resume.
Wait for:
Price to cross 23.6 or 61.8
MACD histogram rising (bullish) or falling (bearish)
"CC 23.6" or "CC 61.8" label to appear
🟢 Entry Example: Price retraces to Fib 61.8%, crosses up with green MACD histogram → take long position
✅ 2. Validate Reversal or Breakout Zones
These Fib levels also act as support/resistance.
If price crosses a Fib level but MACD fails to confirm, it may be a fake breakout.
Use confirmation labels only when MACD aligns.
✅ 3. Add Volatility Context (ATR) for Risk Management
The ATR label shows both value and %.
Use ATR to:
Set dynamic stop-losses (e.g., 1.5x ATR below entry)
Decide trade size based on volatility
How to Combine the Indicator With Other Tools
You can combine this script with other technical tools for a powerful trading framework:
🔁 With Moving Averages
Use 50/200 MA for overall trend direction
Take signals only in the direction of MA slope
🔄 With Price Action Patterns
Use the Fib/MACD signals at confluence points:
Support/resistance zones
Breakout retests
Candlestick patterns (pin bars, engulfing)
🔺 With Volume or Order Flow
Combine with volume spikes or order book signals
Confirm that Fib/MACD signals align with strong volume for conviction
✅ Trade Setup Summary
Criteria Long Setup Short Setup
Price at Fib Level At or crossing Fib 23.6 / 61.8 Same
MACD Histogram Rising and above previous bar Falling and below previous bar
Label Appears Green "CC 23.6" or "CC 61.8" Red "CC 23.6" or "CC 61.8"
Optional Filters Trend direction, ATR range, volume, price pattern Same
Volume Weighted Median Price (VWMP)The volume is indeed crucial for confirming price moves and understanding market conviction. While many traders are familiar with VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price), this indicator introduces a lesser-known but powerful cousin: the Volume Weighted Median Price (VWMP).
What is VWMP?
Unlike VWAP, which calculates the average price weighted by volume over a period, VWMP identifies the median price level weighted by volume.
Think of it this way: If you line up all the trades within a specific lookback period, sorted by price, and then start accumulating the volume traded at each price level, the VWMP is the price level where 50% of the total volume occurred below it, and 50% occurred above it.
It essentially finds the "middle ground" of trading activity based on where the bulk of the volume actually traded, not just the average price.
Key Difference: VWMP vs. VWAP
VWAP: Volume Weighted Average Price. Sensitive to outliers (single large trades at extreme prices can skew the average).
VWMP: Volume Weighted Median Price. More robust to outliers. It represents the price that splits the period's volume distribution in half.
Because it uses the median, VWMP can sometimes provide a more stable or representative level of the "typical" price where significant volume is changing hands, especially in volatile markets or when large, anomalous trades occur.
How to Interpret and Use VWMP in trading
The VWMP plots as a line on your chart, similar to a moving average or VWAP. Here are a few ways traders might use it:
Dynamic Support and Resistance:
Like VWAP, the VWMP line can act as a dynamic level of interest.
Watch how price interacts with the VWMP. Consistent acceptance above VWMP might suggest bullish control and potential support.
Consistent rejection or acceptance below VWMP might indicate bearish control and potential resistance.
Trend Filter / Confirmation:
Uptrend: Look for price consistently staying above the VWMP line. Pullbacks to the VWMP that hold could offer entry opportunities.
Downtrend: Look for price consistently staying below the VWMP line. Rallies to the VWMP that fail could present shorting opportunities.
Use it to filter trades: Only take long trades if price is above VWMP, and short trades if below.
Mean Reversion Potential (Use with Caution):
When price extends significantly far away from the VWMP, some traders might look for potential reversion back towards this volume-based median level.
Important: This should not be used in isolation. Always look for confirmation from other indicators (like RSI, Stochastics, or candlestick patterns) before trading counter-trend reversions.
Confluence with Other Indicators:
VWMP works best when combined with other analysis tools.
Look for confluence: Does the VWMP align with a key Fibonacci level, a standard moving average, or a prior support/resistance zone? This confluence strengthens the level's potential significance.
Considerations
Lookback Period: The length input is crucial. A shorter period makes VWMP more responsive to recent action; a longer period makes it smoother and reflects longer-term volume distribution. Experiment to find what suits your timeframe and trading style.
Lagging Nature: Like all indicators based on past data, VWMP is inherently lagging. It reflects past volume distribution, not the future.
Market Context: Its effectiveness can vary depending on the market conditions (trending vs. ranging) and the asset being traded.

SMT SwiftEdge PowerhouseSMT SwiftEdge Powerhouse: Precision Trading with Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and OTE Zones
The SMT SwiftEdge Powerhouse is a powerful trading tool designed to help traders identify high-probability entry points during the most active market sessions—London and New York. By combining Smart Money Technique (SMT) Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) Zones, this script provides a unique and cohesive strategy for capturing market reversals with precision. Whether you're a scalper or a swing trader, this indicator offers clear visual signals to enhance your trading decisions on any timeframe.
What Does This Script Do?
This script integrates three key concepts to identify potential trading opportunities:
SMT Divergence:
SMT Divergence compares the price action of two correlated assets (e.g., Nasdaq and S&P 500 futures) to detect hidden market reversals. When one asset makes a higher high while the other makes a lower high (bearish divergence), or one makes a lower low while the other makes a higher low (bullish divergence), it signals a potential reversal. This technique leverages institutional "smart money" behavior to anticipate market shifts.
Liquidity Grabs:
Liquidity Grabs occur when price breaks above recent highs or below recent lows on higher timeframes (5m and 15m), often triggering stop-loss orders from retail traders. These breakouts are identified using pivot points and confirm institutional activity, setting the stage for a reversal. The script focuses on liquidity grabs during the London and New York sessions for maximum market activity.
Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) Zones:
OTE Zones are Fibonacci-based retracement areas (e.g., 61.8%) calculated after a liquidity grab. These zones highlight where price is likely to retrace before continuing in the direction of the reversal, offering a high-probability entry point. The script adjusts the width of these zones using the Average True Range (ATR) to adapt to market volatility.
By combining these components, the script identifies when institutional activity (liquidity grabs) aligns with market reversals (SMT divergence) and pinpoints precise entry points (OTE zones) during high-liquidity sessions.
Why Combine These Components?
The integration of SMT Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and OTE Zones creates a robust trading system for several reasons:
Synergy of Institutional Signals: SMT Divergence and Liquidity Grabs both reflect "smart money" behavior—divergence shows hidden reversals, while liquidity grabs confirm institutional intent to trap retail traders. Together, they provide a strong foundation for identifying high-probability setups.
Session-Based Precision: Focusing on the London and New York sessions ensures signals occur during periods of high volatility and liquidity, increasing their reliability.
Precision Entries with OTE: After confirming a setup with divergence and liquidity grabs, OTE zones provide a clear entry area, reducing guesswork and improving trade accuracy.
Adaptability: The script works on any timeframe, with adjustable settings for signal sensitivity, session times, and Fibonacci levels, making it versatile for different trading styles.
This combination makes the script unique by aligning institutional insights with actionable entry points, tailored to the most active market hours.
How to Use the Script
Setup:
Add the script to your chart (works on any timeframe, e.g., 1m, 5m, 15m).
Configure the settings in the indicator's inputs:
Session Settings: Adjust the start/end times for London and New York sessions (default: London 8-11 UTC, New York 13-16 UTC). You can disable session restrictions if desired.
Asset Settings: Set the primary and secondary assets for SMT Divergence (default: NQ1! and ES1!). Ensure the assets are correlated.
Signal Settings: Adjust the lookback period, ATR period, and signal sensitivity (Low/Medium/High) to control the frequency of signals.
OTE Settings: Choose the Fibonacci level for OTE zones (default: 61.8%).
Visual Settings: Enable/disable OTE zones, SMT labels, and debug labels for troubleshooting.
Interpreting Signals:
Blue Circles: Indicate a liquidity grab (price breaking a 5m or 15m pivot high/low), marking the start of a potential setup.
Blue OTE Zones: Appear after a liquidity grab, showing the retracement area (e.g., 61.8% Fibonacci level) where price is likely to enter for a reversal trade. The label "OTE Trigger 5m/15m" confirms the direction (Short/Long) and session.
Green/Red Entry Boxes: Mark precise entry points when price enters the OTE zone and confirms the SMT Divergence. Green boxes indicate a long entry, red boxes a short entry.
Trading Example:
On a 1m chart, a blue circle appears when price breaks a 5m pivot high during the London session.
A blue OTE zone forms, showing a retracement area (e.g., 61.8% Fibonacci level) with the label "OTE Trigger 5m/15m (Short, London)".
Price retraces into the OTE zone, and a red "Short Entry" box appears, confirming a bearish SMT Divergence.
Enter a short trade at the red box, with a stop-loss above the OTE zone and a take-profit at the next support level.
Originality and Utility
The SMT SwiftEdge Powerhouse stands out by merging SMT Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and OTE Zones into a single, session-focused indicator. Unlike traditional indicators that focus on one aspect of price action, this script combines institutional reversal signals with precise entry zones, tailored to the most active market hours. Its adaptability across timeframes, customizable settings, and clear visual cues make it a versatile tool for traders seeking to capitalize on smart money movements with confidence.
Tips for Best Results
Use on correlated assets like NQ1! (Nasdaq futures) and ES1! (S&P 500 futures) for accurate SMT Divergence.
Test on lower timeframes (1m, 5m) for scalping or higher timeframes (15m, 1H) for swing trading.
Adjust the "Signal Sensitivity" to "High" for more signals or "Low" for fewer, high-quality setups.
Enable "Show Debug Labels" if signals are not appearing as expected, to troubleshoot pivot points and liquidity grabs.

Akkerman IMB + Targets IndicatorAkkerman IMB + Targets Indicator
The Akkerman IMB + Targets Indicator is a powerful tool for traders who use the Smart Money Concept (SMC) methodology for intraday trading. This indicator combines several key elements of technical analysis, such as IMB (Imbalance) zones, liquidity zones, and intraday targets, to help traders identify significant levels on the chart for potential entry and exit points.
Main Features of the Indicator:
IMB (Imbalance) Zones:
The indicator detects IMB zones (imbalances) on the chart, which are often significant for the market because these zones can signal unsupported price moves where the market may either retrace or continue the move.
Green box — indicates a bullish IMB, where the price moves downward but does not reach the previous "low" level.
Red box — indicates a bearish IMB, where the price moves upward but does not reach the previous "high" level.
Liquidity Zones:
The indicator automatically identifies liquidity zones, which are critical levels for potential retracements or breakouts. These zones are determined by equal highs and lows on the chart (where the price has made similar highs or lows).
Triangles or lines highlight levels where significant buy or sell orders might be gathered.
Intraday Target Lines:
The indicator generates targets for intraday trading based on support and resistance levels over the last 10 periods.
These target lines on the chart indicate potential entry or exit points based on the lowest and highest prices over the past 10 bars, which represent key points for trading within the current session.
Indicator Settings:
Show IMB: Toggle to show or hide IMB zones on the chart.
Show Liquidity Zones: Toggle to show or hide liquidity zones on the chart.
Show Targets (Intraday): Toggle to show or hide intraday target lines.
Max Targets (maxTargets): Set the maximum number of targets to display on the chart.
How to Use:
IMB Zones help identify potential retracement or breakout zones on the market. These zones are a critical part of Smart Money analysis, as markets often retrace to these areas after significant price moves.
Liquidity Zones provide clues about where large orders may be gathered, which could lead to a retracement or breakout.
Intraday Targets assist in identifying important levels for entering or exiting trades within the current session to take advantage of short-term price movements.
Important Notes:
This indicator works best on the 1-hour timeframe (H1) for more accurate and stable signals.
For maximum effectiveness, it is recommended to combine this indicator with other technical indicators and analysis methods.
Market Structure HH/LLThis script automatically plots basic market structure points: Higher Highs (HH) and Lower Lows (LL), based on 5-bar pivots.

HVC + levelsPersistent HVC Rays Across All Intraday
Identify and carry forward the open, close, high and low of the highest‑volume daily candle as true horizontal support/resistance levels across every intraday timeframe – including pre‑market and after‑hours.
Description
This indicator automatically detects the single highest‑volume daily bar over your specified lookback period and then plots four persistent horizontal rays at that candle’s open, close, high, and low. Rays are anchored precisely at the New York Stock Exchange’s 09:30 ET bar using IANA timezone timestamps and extend to the right edge of your chart viewport, ensuring they remain visible on 1 min, 5 min, 15 min, hourly, and daily timeframes alike. You can also color intraday high‑volume bars for quick visual context. Store up to Max HVCs of past levels and watch older lines fade, delivering a dynamic volume‑driven support/resistance framework that adapts as new high‑volume days emerge.
Key Inputs
Lookback Period (bars): Number of bars to search for the highest‑volume daily candle.
Max HVCs: Maximum number of past HVC days whose levels remain plotted.
Color Intraday HVC Bars: Toggle to highlight intraday bars that match the highest recent volume.
Plot Persistent Rays: Toggle the horizontal levels on/off for a clean chart.
Engulfing Candle with Streaks and CountIdentifies Engulfing Candles + The Number of Consecutive Signals + Identifies 3rd/4th Consecutive Signals + Keeps Count of Most Recent Number of Signals as Decided by User.
- Have coded in the latest version 6
- This script allows the tracking of engulfing candles over a user defined amount of time (candles).
- The script will signal every engulfing candle and its consecutive corresponding number across the entire chart.
- The Engulfing Count box in the bottom right counts how many bullish and bearish engulfing candles have occurred over the number decided by the user.
- The Engulfing Signal that prints is triggered when an opposite next candle prints and the body is over 100% larger than the previous candle. It does not need to "fully engulf" the previous candle, the coding has an allowance for an "equal to and greater/smaller than" the previous close price. This allows for signals were the open of the engulfing candle can be equal to the close of the previous opposite, however the engulfing still must reach an over 100% sizing of the previous to print a signal.
- Where a piercing candle occurs and the open price is within the body of the previous candle, this will void the equation and no matter how big the candle is, it will not trigger an engulfing signal as I was only looking for true engulfing candles.
- The script keeps count of the same consecutive signals no matter the timeframe.
- It will print the consecutive number above or below the signal (depending if bullish or bearish).
- To assist with trend identification the 3rd consecutive signal will print blue, and the 4th consecutive signal will print yellow (or I prefer to use the term "Gold"). This can help filter out the noise on lower timeframes to assist to see where the momentum is going, or if there are signals going against the trend to try trick traders.
- Back testing I found the 3rd and 4th signals are uncommon on higher timeframes and tend to act as fake-outs before the trend reverses.
- Overall a good tool to add to your trend analysis, either for additional confluence or to assist with reversal identification.
- Colors are set as default, but everything can be changed by the user as I didn't want to limit its possibilities.
*** Please note that this script does not take into any consideration candle wicks. Although it can be used with Heikin Ashi it is somewhat unreliable. This indicator is designed to be used with standard candles only ***

10 Hour Heikin AshiBelow is a Pine Script (version 6) indicator that creates 10-hour Heikin Ashi candles. Heikin Ashi candles smooth out price data to help identify trends by using modified formulas for open, high, low, and close prices. We’ll use a higher timeframe aggregation approach to calculate the Heikin Ashi values based on 10-hour periods.
Pro Overbought/Oversold IndicatorThis indicator provides:
Visual signals when the market is overbought or oversold.
Customizable thresholds.
Clear plots and background coloring for easier chart reading.
📌 Features:
Uses dual confirmation from both RSI and Stochastic to improve signal quality.
Alerts can be set when the market enters OB/OS zones.
Customizable lengths and levels for flexibility.
Background shading helps visually identify critical zones.
Heiken Ashi 10 HourHeikin Ashi candles are a type of candlestick chart that smooths out price action compared to traditional candlesticks. The 10 hour Heikin Ashi candles have been created by averaging the open, high, low, and close prices over a 10 hour period with the previous Heikin Ashi candle's open and close. This averaging helps to filter out market noise and look for underlying trends.

How I Use
I use the candle stick patterns to gauge market conditions, the consecutive candle ranges to follow order flow using a closing break of the range and retest and the filtered swings to assist in identifying stronger. If any one wants to create a strategy around this that would be cool i know nothing of coding and do everything with A.I

5ma + O’Neil & Minervini Buy ConditionIndicator Overview
5ma + O’Neil & Minervini Buy Condition is an original TradingView indicator that extends beyond a simple collection of standard moving averages by offering:
- Five Fully Independent Lines : Each of MA1–MA5 can be configured as SMA, EMA, WMA, or VWMA with its own period and data source. This level of customization unlocks unique combinations no existing script provides.
- Synergy of Multiple Timeframes : Default settings (10, 21, 50, 200, 325) reflect ultra‑short, short, medium, long, and volume‑weighted long‑term perspectives. The layered structure functions as a multi‑filter, sharpening entry signals and trend confirmation beyond any single MA.
- Integrated Buy Conditions : Built‑in O’Neil and Minervini buy filters use fixed SMA‑based rules (50 & 200 SMA rising within 15% of 52‑week high; 10 > 21 > 50 SMA rising within high/low thresholds), plus a combined condition highlighting when both methods align.
- Clean Visualization & Style Controls : Background coloring for each buy condition appears only in the Style tab under clearly named parameters (O’Neil Buy Condition, Minervini Buy Condition, Both Conditions). MA lines support transparent default colors and customizable line width for optimal readability without clutter.
Calculation & Logic
SMA: (P₁ + P₂ + … + Pₙ) ÷ N
EMA: α = 2 ÷ (N + 1)
EMA_today = (Price_today – EMA_yesterday) × α + EMA_yesterday
WMA: (P₁×N + P₂×(N–1) + … + Pₙ×1) ÷
VWMA: Σ(Pᵢ×Vᵢ) ÷ Σ(Vᵢ) for i = 1…N
```
Buy Condition Logic
- O’Neil: Price > 50 SMA & 200 SMA (both rising) **and** within 15% of the 52‑week high.
- Minervini : 10 SMA > 21 SMA > 50 SMA (both short‑term SMAs rising) **and** within 25% of the 52‑week high **and** at least 25% above the 52‑week low.
- Combined : Both O’Neil and Minervini conditions true.
Usage Examples
1. Short‑Mid Cross : Observe MA1/MA2 crossover while MA3/MA4 confirm trend strength.
2. Volume‑Weighted Long‑Term : Use VWMA as MA5 to filter institutional‑strength pullbacks.
3. Multi‑Filter Entry : Look for purple background (Both Conditions) on daily chart as high‑confidence entry.
Why It’s Unique
- Not a Mash‑Up : Though built on standard MA formulas, the customizable layering and built‑in buy filters create a novel multi‑dimensional analysis tool.
- Trader‑Friendly : Detailed comments in the code explain parameter choices, calculation methods, and practical entry scenarios so that even Pine novices can understand the underlying mechanics.
- Publication‑Ready : Description and code demonstrate originality, add clear value, and comply with house‑rule requirements by explaining why and how components interact, not just listing features.
- Combined Custom MA & Buy Conditions : By integrating customizable moving averages with built-in buy filters, users can easily recognize O’Neil and Minervini recommended setups.

market relative strengthOverview
market relative strength is a custom indicator that visualizes how strong or weak a given asset is compared to a selected market benchmark — such as KOSPI, NASDAQ100, BTC dominance, or total crypto market cap.
How It Works
The indicator calculates the relative return between the current asset and the selected benchmark over a user-defined period. It then normalizes the difference into a 0–100 score:
Above 50 = outperforming the market
Below 50 = underperforming the market
Above 70 / Below 30 = strong divergence from market trend
Use Case
This is ideal for identifying assets with strong relative performance, detecting trend leaders or laggards, and rotating positions between sectors or assets based on strength.
Customization
Choose from a list of market indexes or crypto metrics
Set the comparison period and normalization range

Note
This is not the same as RSI. This indicator is based on relative performance to a benchmark, not price momentum.
