Equilibrium Candles + Pattern [Honestcowboy]The Equilibrium Candles is a very simple trend continuation or reversal strategy depending on your settings.
How an Equilibrium Candle is created:
We calculate the equilibrium by measuring the mid point between highest and lowest point over X amount of bars back.
This now is the opening price for each bar and will be considered a green bar if price closes above equilibrium.
Bars get shaded by checking if regular candle close is higher than open etc. So you still see what the normal candles are doing.
Why are they useful?
The equilibrium is calculated the same as Baseline in Ichimoku Cloud. Which provides a point where price is very likely to retrace to. This script visualises the distance between close and equilibrium using candles. To provide a clear visual of how price relates to this equilibrium point.
This also makes it more straightforward to develop strategies based on this simple concept and makes the trader purely focus on this relationship and not think of any Ichimoku Cloud theories.
Script uses a very simple pattern to enter trades:
It will count how many candles have been one directional (above or below equilibrium)
Based on user input after X candles (7 by default) script shows we are in a trend (bg colors)
On the first pullback (candle closes on other side of equilibrium) it will look to enter a trade.
Places a stop order at the high of the candle if bullish trend or reverse if bearish trend.
If based on user input after X opposite candles (2 by default) order is not filled will cancel it and look for a new trend.
Use Reverse Logic:
There is a use reverse logic in the settings which on default is turned on. It will turn long orders into short orders making the stop orders become limit orders. It will use the normal long SL as target for the short. And TP as stop for the short. This to provide a means to reverse equity curve in case your pair is mean reverting by nature instead of trending.
ATR Calculation:
Averaged ATR, which is using ta.percentile_nearest_rank of 60% of a normal ATR (14 period) over the last 200 bars. This in simple words finds a value slightly above the mean ATR value over that period.
Big Candle Exit Logic:
Using Averaged ATR the script will check if a candle closes X times that ATR from the equilibrium point. This is then considered an overextension and all trades are closed.
This is also based on user input.
Simple trade management logic:
Checks if the user has selected to use TP and SL, or/and big candle exit.
Places a TP and SL based on averaged ATR at a multiplier based on user Input.
Closes trade if there is a Big Candle Exit or an opposite direction signal from indicator.
Script can be fully automated to MT5
There are risk settings in % and symbol settings provided at the bottom of the indicator. The script will send alert to MT5 broker trying to mimic the execution that happens on tradingview. There are always delays when using a bridge to MT5 broker and there could be errors so be mindful of that. This script sends alerts in format so they can be read by tradingview.to which is a bridge between the platforms.
Use the all alert function calls feature when setting up alerts and make sure you provide the right webhook if you want to use this approach.
There is also a simple buy and sell alert feature if you don't want to fully automate but still get alerts. These are available in the dropdown when creating an alert.
Almost every setting in this indicator has a tooltip added to it. So if any setting is not clear hover over the (?) icon on the right of the setting.
The backtest uses a 4% exposure per trade and a 10 point slippage. I did not include a commission cause I'm not personaly aware what the commissions are on most forex brokers. I'm only aware of minimal slippage to use in a backtest. Trading conditions vary per broker you use so always pay close attention to trading costs on your own broker. Use a full automation at your own risk and discretion and do proper backtesting.
Candlestick Analysis
Engulfing Pattern with Multiple EMAs and AlertsCreated in copilot for pine script for bullish and bearish engulfing where the signal appears if the engulfing candle closed above or below the 14ema and it must close with the ema passing through either the wick or the candle body, also another stipulation the engulfing candle must be at least a min of 2x the size of the previous candle. The AI created this already adding the 14 ema so I added the 50 and 200 Emas as extras
Imbalance OscillatorCalculates the average of n most recent imbalances and creates an oscillator out of them. Default is 10. Can help to show change in market direction and/or trend. Useful when volatility picks up since it shows institutional order flow.
Inside Bar with Swing PointsSwing Points with Inside Bar
This script combines swing point analysis with an inside bar pattern visualization, merging essential concepts to identify and visualize key price levels and potential trend reversals. This is especially useful for traders looking to understand price action through swing levels and reactions within inside bar boundaries, making it effective for short-term trend analysis and reversal zone identification.
Script Features:
Swing Point Analysis:
The script identifies swing points based on fractals with a configurable number of bars, allowing for a choice between three and five bars, helping traders fine-tune sensitivity to price movements.
Swing points are visualized as labels, highlighting potential reversal or continuation zones in the price chart.
Inside Bar Visualization:
Inside bars are defined as bars where both the high and low are contained within the previous bar. These often signal consolidation before a potential breakout.
The script displays boundaries of the mother bar (the initial bar encompassing inside bars) and colors candles accordingly, highlighting those within these boundaries.
This feature helps traders focus on price areas where a breakout or trend shift may occur.
Utility and Application:
The script enables traders to visualize inside bars and swing points, which is particularly useful for short-term traders focused on reversal or trend continuation strategies.
Combining swing point analysis with inside bar identification offers a unique approach, helping traders locate key consolidation zones that may precede significant price moves.
This provides not only strong support and resistance levels but also insights into probable breakout points.
How to Use the Script:
Set the number of bars for swing point analysis (3 or 5) to adjust fractal sensitivity.
Enable mother bar boundary visualization and color indication for inside bars to easily spot consolidation patterns.
Pay attention to areas with multiple swing points and inside bars, as these often signal potential reversal or breakout zones.
This script offers flexible tools for analyzing price movements through both swing analysis and consolidation zone identification, aiding decision-making under uncertainty and enhancing market structure understanding.
Price Action StrategyThe **Price Action Strategy** is a tool designed to capture potential market reversals by utilizing classic reversal candlestick patterns such as Hammer, Shooting Star, Doji, and Pin Bar near dinamic support and resistance levels.
***Note to moderators
- The moving average was removed from the strategy because it was not suitable for the strategy and not participating in the entry or exit criteria.
- The moving average length has been replaced/renamed by the support/resistance lenght.
- The bullish engulfing and bearish engulfing patterns were also removed because in practice they were not working as entry criteria, since the candle price invariably closes far from the support/resistance level even considering the sensitivity range. There was no change in the backtest results after removing these patterns.
### Key Elements of the Strategy
1. Support and Resistance Levels
- Support and resistance are pivotal price levels where the asset has previously struggled to move lower (support) or higher (resistance). These levels act as psychological barriers where buying interest (at support) or selling interest (at resistance) often increases, potentially causing price reversals.
- In this strategy, support is calculated as the lowest low and resistance as the highest high over a 16-period length. When the price nears these levels, it indicates possible zones for a reversal, and the strategy looks for specific candlestick patterns to confirm an entry.
2. Candlestick Patterns
- This strategy uses classic reversal patterns, including:
- **Hammer**: Indicates a buy signal, suggesting rejection of lower prices.
- **Shooting Star**: Suggests a sell signal, showing rejection of higher prices.
- **Doji**: Reflects indecision and potential reversal.
- **Pin Bar**: Represents price rejection with a long shadow, often signaling a reversal.
By combining these reversal patterns with the proximity to dinamic support or resistance levels, the strategy aims to capture potential reversal movements.
3. Sensitivity Level
- The sensitivity parameter adjusts the acceptable range (Default 0.018 = 1.8%) around support and resistance levels within which reversal patterns can trigger trades (i.e. the closing price of the candle must occur within the specified range defined by the sensitivity parameter). A higher sensitivity value expands this range, potentially leading to less accurate signals, as it may allow for more false positives.
4. Entry Criteria
- **Buy (Long)**: A Hammer, Doji, or Pin Bar pattern near support.
- **Sell (Short)**: A Shooting Star, Doji, or Pin Bar near resistance.
5. Exit criteria
- Take profit = 9.5%
- Stop loss = 16%
6. No Repainting
- The Price Action Strategy is not subject to repainting.
7. Position Sizing by Equity and risk management
- This strategy has a default configuration to operate with 35% of the equity. The stop loss is set to 16% from the entry price. This way, the strategy is putting at risk about 16% of 35% of equity, that is, around 5.6% of equity for each trade. The percentage of equity and stop loss can be adjusted by the user according to their risk management.
8. Backtest results
- This strategy was subjected to deep backtest and operations in replay mode on **1000000MOGUSDT.P**, with the inclusion of transaction fees at 0.12% and slipagge of 5 ticks, and the past results have shown consistent profitability. Past results are no guarantee of future results. The strategy's backtest results may even be due to overfitting with past data.
9. Chart Visualization
- Support and resistance levels are displayed as green (support) and red (resistance) lines.
- Only the candlestick pattern that generated the entry signal to triger the trade is identified and labeled on the chart. During the operation, the occurrence of new Doji, Pin Bar, Hammer and Shooting Star patterns will not be demonstrated on the chart, since the exit criteria are based on percentage take profit and stop loss.
Doji:
Pin Bar and Doji
Shooting Star and Doji

Story of Candlestick Pattern:
Candlestick patterns have a rich history rooted in ancient Japanese trading practices dating back to the 17th century. They were first developed by rice traders to visualize price movements and detect patterns reflecting market psychology. The logic behind candlestick patterns lies in the emotions driving market participants—fear, greed, uncertainty, and hope—captured through the open, high, low, and close prices.
Each pattern tells a story about buyers' and sellers' behavior, illustrating shifts in sentiment that can signal reversals or continuations in the market trend. By recognizing these patterns, traders can anticipate potential price movements and make informed decisions. The longevity and continued relevance of candlestick analysis highlight its effectiveness in understanding market dynamics.

FuTech V-Spike & V-HighlighterFuTech V-Spike & V-Highlighter
In the context of trading and technical analysis, this volume spike & volume highlighter indicator is the perfect indicator used to assess market activity and make informed trading decisions.
Let's Understand in brief as below :
1) Volume Spike :
A volume spike refers to a sudden, significant increase in trading volume compared to the average volume over a specific period.
This spike can indicate heightened interest in a particular security, often preceding price movements.
Traders may look for volume spikes as signals for potential buy or sell opportunities because they can suggest that a stock is experiencing increased activity, possibly due to news, earnings releases, or other catalysts.
Characteristics of a Volume Spike:
Assess the sudden increase in trading volume.
It Can occur in both upward and downward price movements.
Often compared to the average volume over a defined period (e.g., the last 20 days).
2) Volume Highlighter:
A volume highlighter emphasizes significant changes in trading volume on a price chart. This indicator typically uses color coding to highlight periods of high volume, making it easier for traders to identify volume spikes at a glance.
How this indicator works:
a) Volume Spike will calculate the highest volume spike as per the user defined threshold multiplier. (Multiplier = when volume exceeds a certain threshold)
b) The threshold Multiplier can be set based on a fixed number or as a multiple of the Exponential Moving Average volume. Volume Spike Multiplier default is 1.5, means the EMA volume should cross 1.5 times the user defined lookback period
c) The result is derived from the user defined lookback candles by using its EMA instead of SMA, which will give us more precise results.
d) By default, last 10 candles EMA average is used to calculate the Volume Spike but you can choose your lookback period as many days, weeks, months, years of your choice !
e) In Volume Spike -
- Green candle will show Yellow color Bar as Bullish sentiments, whereas
- Red candle will show Black Bar as Bearish sentiments.
f) Volume Highlighter will highlight the candles background if the highest volume is crossing as per the the user defined lookback period
g) Default Lookback period is 20, Color coding (e.g., Blue for bullish spikes, Red for bearish spikes) helps traders quickly assess the volume context.
h) Volume Highlighter plotting shapes and positions can be modified
Illustration:
From the Above pic,
If last Volume Spike is 10 lookback candles, Spike multiplier is 1.5 and Highlighter lookback candles is 20,
Then yellow candle means the spike in volume which is 1.5 times higher than the last 10 candles
Highlighting color defines the highest volumes trading from the last 20 candles which is either Blue (Bullish) or Red (Bearish) sentiments
Conclusion :
Using FuTech V-Spike & V-Highlighter indicator - will help traders identify potential trading opportunities and better understand market dynamics.
By analyzing volume in conjunction with price movements, traders can make more informed decisions based on market sentiment.

SMT Divergences [OutOfOptions]Smart Money Technique (SMT) Divergence is designed to identify discrepancies between correlated assets within the same timeframe. It occurs when two related assets exhibit opposing signals, such as one forming a higher low while the other forms a lower low. This technique is particularly useful for anticipating market shifts or reversals before they become evident through other Premium Discount (PD) Arrays.
This indicator works by identifying the highs and lows that have formed for an asset on the current chart and the correlated symbol defined in the settings. Once a pivot on either asset is formed, it checks if the pivot has taken liquidity as identified by the previous pivot in the same direction (i.e., a new high taking out a previous high). If this is the case and the corresponding asset has not taken a similar pivot, the condition is determined to be a potential valid divergence. The indicator will then filter out SMTs formed by adjacent candles, requiring at least one candle difference between the candles forming the SMT.
If the “Candle Direction Validation” setting is enabled, the indicator will further check both assets to ensure that for bullish SMTs, the last high on both assets was formed by down candle, and for bearish SMTs, the low was formed by an up candle. This check can often eliminate low-probability SMTs that are frequently broken.
The referenced chart shows divergence between Nasdaq (NQ) and S&P 500 (ES) futures, which are normally closely correlated assets that move in the same direction. The lines shown represent bullish and bearish divergences between the two when they are formed. As you can see from the chart, SMT Divergences may not always indicate a reversal, or a reversal might be just a short-term retrace. Therefore, SMT Divergences should not be used independently. However, in conjunction with other PD arrays, they can provide strong confirmation of a change in market direction.
Configurability:
Pivot strength - Indicates how many bars to the left/right of a high for pivot to be considered, recommended to keep at 1 for maximum detection speed
Candle Direction Validation - Additional SMT validation to filter out weak/low-probability SMTs be examining candle direction
Line Styling for Bullish/Bearish SMTs - Ability to customize line style, color & width for bullish/bearish SMTs
Label Control - Whether or not to show SMT label and if shown what font size & color should be used
What makes this indicator different:
Unlike other SMT indicators, this indicators has additional built-in controls to remove low-probability SMTs
Time Based 3 Candle Model CRT FrameworkThe 3 Candle Model Overview:
The 3 Candle Model serves as a sophisticated framework for traders to navigate the complexities of financial markets, particularly within futures and forex trading. This guide not only elaborates on the model's key features but also emphasizes its originality and practical usefulness in the TradingView community. The core principle of the 3 Candle Model revolves around understanding how candle patterns can represent significant price ranges, offering valuable insights into potential market movements. By integrating the model with other critical trading concepts such as the Power of Three (PO3), Open-High-Low-Close (OHLC), and Turtle Soup setups, traders can enhance their ability to identify high-probability trades and achieve better trading outcomes.
Indicator includes:
3 Customizable Timeframe choices to fractally frame 3 candle models for precision
Live Timers for each timeframe to always be aware of the models timing
Parent Candle tracking on every preffered timeframe until new models parent candle is printed
Key Features of the 3 Candle Model
The 3 Candle Model primarily utilizes a three-candle structure, where the first candle establishes a price range, the second candle may act as a confirmation (often termed a "turtle soup"), and the third candle provides the breakout or continuation. This structure is pivotal in determining entry and exit points for trades, ensuring that each trading decision is backed by solid price action analysis.
OHLC Principle:
The Open-High-Low-Close (OHLC) concept is integral to the 3 Candle Model, allowing traders to analyze price action more effectively. Understanding the relationship between these four price points helps traders gauge market sentiment and potential reversals. By incorporating OHLC into the model, traders can develop a deeper understanding of market structure and its implications for future price movements.
Delivery States:
The 3 Candle Model emphasizes the importance of delivery states, which refer to the market's phase during specific time frames. Recognizing these states aids traders in determining the appropriate conditions for entering trades, particularly when combined with the power of three and candle range patterns. This understanding is crucial for positioning trades in alignment with market momentum.
High Probability Setups:
By aligning the 3 Candle Model with inside bar setups, traders can optimize their strategies for high-probability outcomes. This approach capitalizes on the inherent fractal nature of price movements, where previous patterns repeat at different scales. The combination of the model and inside bar setups enhances the trader's toolkit, allowing for more strategic trade placements.
Turtle Soup Formation:
The 3 Candle Model intricately connects with the Turtle Soup concept, which focuses on false breakouts. Identifying these formations at critical levels enhances the trader's ability to anticipate reversals or continuation patterns. The timing of these setups, particularly during specified times like 3:00 AM, 6:00 AM, 9:00 AM, and 1:00 PM, is crucial for maximizing trade success.
Using the 3 Candle Model in Trading
Integration with PO3:
The Power of Three (PO3) is a fundamental aspect of the 3 Candle Model that emphasizes the significance of three distinct stages of price delivery. Traders can leverage this principle by observing the initial range, confirming patterns, and executing trades during the third phase, leading to higher risk-to-reward ratios. This three-stage approach enhances a trader's ability to make informed decisions based on market behavior.
Targeting Midpoints:
Successful application of the 3 Candle Model involves targeting the midpoints of identified ranges. This practice not only provides strategic entry points but also enhances the probability of reaching desired profit levels. By targeting these midpoints, traders can refine their exit strategies and manage risk more effectively.
Aligning with Market Timing:
Timing is everything in trading. By synchronizing the 3 Candle Model setups with the aforementioned key timeframes, traders can better position themselves to exploit market dynamics. This alignment also facilitates the identification of high-quality trades that exhibit strong potential for profitability.
Prioritizing A+ Setups:
By focusing on the 3 Candle Model and its associated concepts, traders can prioritize A+ setups that exhibit a strong alignment of factors. This methodical approach enhances the quality of trades taken, leading to improved overall performance. By cultivating a strategy centered on high-probability setups, traders can maximize their return on investment.

LIT_Globas_sys - Liquidity Inducement Theorem (SMC, IDM)LIT_GLOBAL_SYS Trading Tool Documentation, is a comprehensive market analysis tool that includes all components needed for trading according to Liquidity Inducement Theorem (LIT). LIT differs from classical trading methods and is considered a highly effective and profitable strategy.
What can LIT_GLOBAL_SYS do?
--- Market Structure
The main feature of Liquidity Inducement Theorem is building the correct structure, specifically construction taking into account inducement (IDM). Thus, a new HH or LL can only form when the price has taken the first correct pullback - inducement (IDM), and after this, we understand the location of BoS (break of structure) and CHoCH (change of character).
LIT_GLOBAL_SYS automatically and perfectly displays the correct structure following all LIT rules. Looking at the indicator, a trader always understands which range the price is currently in and where it's trending at the moment. The indicator also shows dynamic (live) levels, providing a clear understanding of the market structure in real-time.
The indicator settings allow customization of each structural element according to trader preferences. For example, you can change the style, color, and shape of structural objects.
--- Correct Pullbacks and Inside Bars
In Liquidity Inducement Theorem, correct pullbacks are fundamental. The structure, order blocks, liquidity levels, order flow, and single candle order blocks (CSOB) are all built based on pullbacks.
What is a pullback?
- When the next candle updates the low of the previous candle, we can finish drawing an upward pullback
- We can start drawing a downward correct pullback when the next candle updates the low of the previous candle
- The downward movement will continue until the opposite occurs - updating the high of the previous candle
There are complexities in determining pullbacks - these are inside bars. In Liquidity Inducement Theorem, inside bars are completely ignored!
For example, in an upward movement, at some point, candles may stop updating the high and low of the previous candle and remain within the boundaries of the previous candle. Theoretically, there could be any number of such candles from 1 to infinity. In such cases, it's important to wait for the price to exit the mother candle (the candle after which other candles remained within its high and low range).
LIT_GLOBAL_SYS easily handles this and displays both pullbacks and inside bars correctly.
--- Order Blocks and Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
In Liquidity Inducement Theorem, order blocks are defined differently from classical order blocks:
1. The order block must take liquidity from the previous candle
2. The order block must have Fair Value Gaps (FVG) before it
3. Inside bars are completely ignored for both Order Blocks and FVG
4. If an OB fulfills the first condition (taking liquidity from the previous candle) but doesn't have FVG before it, this block is moved forward along the candles until there is an imbalance before it
There are two most important order blocks in LIT strategy:
1. Inducement order block (idm ob) - the first order block after Inducement
2. Extreme order block (Ext ob) - the first order block before CHoCH
LIT_GLOBAL_SYS perfectly displays correct order blocks and Fair Value Gaps following all rules. It offers full customization options:
- Specify the number of displayed OBs
- Disable all order blocks except idm ob and Ext ob
- Change block frame color and style
- Disable or modify text display in blocks
--- Single Candle Order Block (Scob)
Rules for building Scob:
1. The candle takes liquidity from the previous candle and closes within the body of the previous candle
2. The candle following the Scob candle must close its body below the previous candle
3. Scob forms in continuation of the trend movement
4. Scob completely ignores inside bars
LIT_GLOBAL_SYS accurately displays Scob as triangles and fully ignores inside bars both left and right. The menu allows complete customization of display and quantity of displayed Scobs.
--- Liquidity Lines, Order Flow, and Three-Minute Rule
Auxiliary functions include:
- Liquidity Lines -
Each pullback is marked with a line, showing where unclosed liquidity exists. Completed lines can be hidden to help predict price movement and enter trades correctly.
- Order Flow -
The indicator implements order flow by drawing a line when a pullback is broken (closed by body) in the opposite direction until the second touch. If price moves away without a second touch, the line remains, showing unclosed OF and potential price return zones.
- Three-Minute Rule -
Some LIT traders use the three-minute rule: price manipulations in the last and first three minutes of each 15-minute candle are additional entry factors, especially in the last quarter of an hourly candle. LIT_GLOBAL_SYS displays this rule only on the one-minute timeframe with symbols below for M15 and H1.
--- Trading Sessions, PDH/PDL, and EMA
The system includes:
- Trading sessions (Tokyo, Frankfurt, London, New York) with customizable time settings
- Previous Day High and Previous Day Low (pdh/pdl) levels
- Exponential Moving Average (EMA) with adjustable length
- Equilibrium display between current BoS and CHoCH levels
--- Alert System
LIT_GLOBAL_SYS includes all necessary alerts for Liquidity Inducement Theorem:
1. SCOB
2. EMA
3. BoS, ChoCh, Sweep
4. IDM
5. IDM OB and Ext OB
Users can simply check the desired alerts in the menu and activate them to receive notifications when price reaches specified zones.

The Bar Counter Trend Reversal Strategy [TradeDots]Overview
The Bar Counter Trend Reversal Strategy is designed to identify potential counter-trend reversal points in the market after a series of consecutive rising or falling bars.
By analyzing price movements in conjunction with optional volume confirmation and channel bands (Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels), this strategy aims to detect overbought or oversold conditions where a trend reversal may occur.
🔹How it Works
Consecutive Price Movements
Rising Bars: The strategy detects when there are a specified number of consecutive rising bars (No. of Rises).
Falling Bars: Similarly, it identifies a specified number of consecutive falling bars (No. of Falls).
Volume Confirmation (Optional)
When enabled, the strategy checks for increasing volume during the consecutive price movements, adding an extra layer of confirmation to the potential reversal signal.
Channel Confirmation (Optional)
Channel Type: Choose between Bollinger Bands ("BB") or Keltner Channels ("KC").
Channel Interaction: The strategy checks if the price interacts with the upper or lower channel lines: For short signals, it looks for price moving above the upper channel line. For long signals, it looks for price moving below the lower channel line.
Customization:
No. of Rises/Falls: Set the number of consecutive bars required to trigger a signal.
Volume Confirmation: Enable or disable volume as a confirmation factor.
Channel Confirmation: Enable or disable channel bands as a confirmation factor.
Channel Settings: Adjust the length and multiplier for the Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels.
Visual Indicators:
Entry Signals: Triangles plotted on the chart indicate potential entry points:
Green upward triangle for long entries.
Red downward triangle for short entries.
Channel Bands: The upper and lower bands are plotted for visual reference.
Strategy Parameters:
Initial Capital: $10,000.
Position Sizing: 80% of equity per trade.
Commission: 0.01% per trade to simulate realistic trading costs.
🔹Usage
Set up the number of Rises/Falls and choose whether if you want to use channel indicators and volume as the confirmation.
Monitor the chart for triangles indicating potential entry points.
Consider the context of the overall market trend and other technical factors.
Backtesting and Optimization:
Use TradingView's Strategy Tester to evaluate performance.
Adjust parameters to optimize results for different market conditions.
🔹 Considerations and Recommendations
Risk Management:
The strategy does not include built-in stop-loss or take-profit levels. It's recommended to implement your own risk management techniques.
Market Conditions:
Performance may vary in different market environments. Testing and adjustments are advised when applying the strategy to new instruments or timeframes.
No Guarantee of Future Results:
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always perform due diligence and consider the risks involved in trading.

Bullish Signal: Close price greater than both MA20 and VWAP.
Bearish Signal: Close price less than both MA20 and VWAP.
⭐ Volume Bar Signal for Market Activity:
The script analyzes candle body size and volume to detect significant market movements.
Body Size and Volume Comparison: It checks if the current candle’s body size or volume is greater than the moving average of body size or volume over the past 74 bars.
Green Candle (GC) and Red Candle (RC): Boolean conditions to track whether the close price is higher or lower than the open price.
⭐ Average Signals for Strong Trends:
The script calculates average bullish or bearish signals based on the majority of candles being green or red and significant body size or volume.
Bullish Average Signal: At least 4 out of 6 stocks exhibit bullish conditions (green candles, large bodies, or high volume).
Bearish Average Signal: Similar logic for bearish signals with red candles.
⭐ Overlay of Volume Bar Signals:
The plotshape function overlays the bullish and bearish volume bar signals on the chart, using color and shape to indicate trend changes.
🚀 Conclusion:

Top Stock Analysis: The script provides analysis of top five weighted stocks in the selected index, enhancing precision for broader index analysis.
Candle Average Price FinderDescription
The Candle Average Price Finder is a selection tool designed to calculate the average price of a specified candle source within a user-defined range. By placing two anchor points on the chart, users can select a specific range of candles. The tool then computes the average of the chosen candle source—whether it's the open, close, high, or low price—over the selected range.
For example, if the candle open source is selected, the tool will calculate the average of all the open prices between the two anchor points. Once the calculation is complete, a horizontal line representing the average price is drawn. This line remains visible on the chart, providing a reference for the calculated value.
The tool allows for flexible analysis across different candle sources, making it adaptable to various charting needs. It offers a clear visual representation of the calculated average to assist users in reviewing price data within the specified range.
How to use
- Place two anchor points on the chart to define the start and end of the desired area.
- In the settings, select the candle source (e.g., open, close, high, or low) to be used for the calculation.

InvoTrading - Swing High and Low with BreakoutInvoTrading - Swing High and Low with Breakout Strategy
This strategy is designed to identify trading opportunities based on swing highs and lows, combined with breakout confirmations. It utilizes pivot points to detect potential reversal levels and initiates trades when the price breaks out of these levels under specific conditions.
Key Features:
- Pivot Points: The strategy calculates pivot highs and lows using customizable left and right bars. These pivots represent potential swing points in the market.
- Breakout Detection: It monitors for breakouts above pivot highs (Bullish Break of Structure - BOS) and below pivot lows (Bearish Break of Structure).
- Strong Swings (Optional): You can enable "Strong Swing" detection, which considers only those pivots where the price attempted but failed to break the pivot level, indicating stronger support or resistance.
- Trade Management: The strategy sets entry points, stop losses, and take profits based on a customizable risk-reward ratio.
- Trade Table: An optional table displays recent trades, including their status (Pending, Success, or Failed).
- Visual Aids: Customizable colors and line settings help visualize pivot points, strong swings, and breakout candles on the chart.
---
Settings:
1. Pivot Settings:
- Left Bars: Number of bars to the left of the pivot point (default: 5).
- Right Bars: Number of bars to the right of the pivot point (default: 5).
- Pivot Based On: Choose between "High/Low" or "Close" prices for pivot calculations.
2. Color Settings:
- Pivot High Color: Color for Pivot High markers (default: Blue).
- Pivot Low Color: Color for Pivot Low markers (default: Red).
- Strong Swing High Color: Color for Strong Swing High markers (default: Black).

Chronos Sequential Compass (CSC)The Chronos Sequential Compass (CSC) is an advanced technical analysis tool used to identify potential price exhaustion points, trend reversals, and provide a framework for understanding market structure.
Key Components:
Setup Phase:
Bullish Setup: 9 consecutive closes lower than the close 4 bars earlier.
Bearish Setup: 9 consecutive closes higher than the close 4 bars earlier.
Visualized by green (bullish) or red (bearish) triangles on the chart.
Countdown Phase:
Starts after a Setup is completed.
Counts from 1 to 13(D), comparing the close to the low (for bullish) or high (for bearish) two bars earlier.
Displayed as numbers below (bullish) or above (bearish) the price bars.
Setups:
A Setup is complete when the low of bars 6 and 7 in a bullish Setup are exceeded by the low of bar 9.
For bearish Setups, the high of bars 6 and 7 must be exceeded by the high of bar 9.
Risk Levels:
Established when a Countdown reaches 13(D).
Acts as a reference point for potential trend reversals.
Countdown Delayed:
Indicated by a '+' symbol.
Occurs when a Countdown reaches 13(D) but doesn't meet specific criteria for completion.
Recycling:
Resets the Countdown if a strong opposite trend emerges during the Countdown phase.
How to Use the CSC:
Trend Identification:
Consecutive Setups in one direction indicate a strong trend.
Look for potential trend exhaustion when Setups start appearing in the opposite direction.
Potential Reversal Points:
Pay attention when a Countdown reaches 13, especially if it coincides with other technical factors (support/resistance, chart patterns, etc.).
A completed Countdown doesn't guarantee a reversal but suggests increased probability.
Risk Management:
Use Risk Levels as potential stop-loss points or profit-taking levels.
Be cautious of trades against the trend when price is far from the Risk Level.
Confluence with Price Action:
Look for candlestick patterns or chart formations at key Sequential levels for higher probability setups.
Timeframe Coordination:
Consider using CSC on multiple timeframes for a more comprehensive market view.
Higher timeframe signals often carry more weight.
Delayed Countdowns:
A delayed Countdown (indicated by '+') suggests the trend might continue.
It can provide opportunities for trend continuation trades.
Setup:
Setups often provide stronger signals and may lead to more significant moves.
Reversals should occur within 4 bars of setup signals
Completed Countdowns:
Reversals should occur within 12 bars of completed countdowns
