Previous D/W/M HLOCHey traders, Here's a simple Multi-Timeframe indicator that essentially turns time and price into a box. It'll take the previous high, low, opening price, or closing price from one of the three timeframes of your choice (day, week, or month). For whatever reason I can't get the opening price to function consistently so if you find improvements feel free to let me know, this will help traders who prefer to use opening price over closing price. Naturally this form of charting is classical and nature and some key figures you could use to study its usage are - Richard W. Schabacker (1930s) - Edwards & Magee (1948) - Peter Brandt - Stacey Burke (more on the intraday side - typically our preference) It's usage put plainly: - Quantifying Accumulation or Distribution - Revealing Energy Build-Up (Compression) - Framing Breakouts and False Breakouts - Structuring Time - Identifying opportunities to trade a daily, weekly, or monthly range.

McRoulio (Monthly Anchored VWAPs)The McRoulio indicator is designed to provide a clear view of market value relative to the current and previous month's starting points. It must be used on intraday timeframes (like 1H, 4H, 15m) to function correctly. All VWAP calculations use (O+H+L+C)/4 as the price source. Here is what the indicator does: ⚪ Current Month VWAP (Thick White Line) Anchored to the 1st (00:00) of the current month. Includes 1.0 Standard Deviation bands. Displays a "Mcwrap" label. 🔴 Last Month VWAP (Orange Line) Anchored to the 1st (00:00) of the previous month. This line is only visible for the duration of that previous month, allowing for historical reference. ⏳ Previous VWAP Level (Horizontal Orange Line) This line shows the final, settled price of the previous month's VWAP. It is only visible between the 27th of the month and the 3rd of the next month, highlighting a potential support/resistance zone during the "turn of the month." Displays a "Mcwrap Mois dernier" label. Trolled par le gap & le mcwrap 😘

Power RSI Segment Runner [CHE] Power RSI Segment Runner — Tracks RSI momentum across higher timeframe segments to detect directional switches for trend confirmation. Summary This indicator calculates a running Relative Strength Index adapted to segments defined by changes in a higher timeframe, such as daily closes, providing a smoothed view of momentum within each period. It distinguishes between completed segments, which fix the final RSI value, and ongoing ones, which update in real time with an exponential moving average filter. Directional switches between bullish and bearish momentum trigger visual alerts, including overlay lines and emojis, while a compact table displays current trend strength as a progress bar. This segmented approach reduces noise from intra-period fluctuations, offering clearer signals for trend persistence compared to standard RSI on lower timeframes. Motivation: Why this design? Standard RSI often generates erratic signals in choppy markets due to constant recalculation over fixed lookback periods, leading to false reversals that mislead traders during range-bound or volatile phases. By resetting the RSI accumulation at higher timeframe boundaries, this indicator aligns momentum assessment with broader market cycles, capturing sustained directional bias more reliably. It addresses the gap between short-term noise and long-term trends, helping users filter entries without over-relying on absolute overbought or oversold thresholds. What’s different vs. standard approaches? - Baseline Reference: Diverges from the classic Wilder RSI, which uses a fixed-length exponential moving average of gains and losses across all bars. - Architecture Differences: - Segments momentum resets at higher timeframe changes, isolating calculations per period instead of continuous history. - Employs persistent sums for ups and downs within segments, with on-the-fly RSI derivation and EMA smoothing. - Integrates switch detection logic that clears prior visuals on reversal, preventing clutter from outdated alerts. - Adds overlay projections like horizontal price lines and dynamic percent change trackers for immediate trade context. - Practical Effect: Charts show discrete RSI endpoints for past segments alongside a curved running trace, making momentum evolution visually intuitive. Switches appear as clean, extendable overlays, reducing alert fatigue and highlighting only confirmed directional shifts, which aids in avoiding whipsaws during minor pullbacks. How it works (technical) The indicator begins by detecting changes in the specified higher timeframe, such as a new daily bar, to define segment boundaries. At each boundary, it finalizes the prior segment's RSI by summing positive and negative price changes over that period and derives the value from the ratio of those sums, then applies an exponential moving average for smoothing. Within the active segment, it accumulates ongoing ups and downs from price changes relative to the source, recalculating the running RSI similarly and smoothing it with the same EMA length. Points for the running RSI are collected into an array starting from the segment's onset, forming a curved polyline once sufficient bars accumulate. Comparisons between the running RSI and the last completed segment's value determine the current direction as long, short, or neutral, with switches triggering deletions of old visuals and creation of new ones: a label at the RSI pane, a vertical dashed line across the RSI range, an emoji positioned via ATR offset on the price chart, a solid horizontal line at the switch price, a dashed line tracking current close, and a midpoint label for percent change from the switch. Initialization occurs on the first bar by resetting accumulators, and visualization gates behind a minimum bar count since the segment start to avoid early instability. The trend strength table builds vertically with filled cells proportional to the rounded RSI value, colored by direction. All drawing objects update or extend on subsequent bars to reflect live progress. Parameter Guide EMA Length — Controls the smoothing applied to the running RSI; higher values increase lag but reduce noise. Default: 10. Trade-offs: Shorter settings heighten sensitivity for fast markets but risk more false switches; longer ones suit trending conditions for stability. Source — Selects the price data for change calculations, typically close for standard momentum. Default: close. Trade-offs: Open or high/low may emphasize gaps, altering segment intensity. Segment Timeframe — Defines the higher timeframe for segment resets, like daily for intraday charts. Default: D. Trade-offs: Shorter frames create more frequent but shorter segments; longer ones align with major cycles but delay resets. Overbought Level — Sets the upper threshold for potential overbought conditions (currently unused in visuals). Default: 70. Trade-offs: Adjust for asset volatility; higher values delay bearish warnings. Oversold Level — Sets the lower threshold for potential oversold conditions (currently unused in visuals). Default: 30. Trade-offs: Lower values permit deeper dips before signaling bullish potential. Show Completed Label — Toggles labels at segment ends displaying final RSI. Default: true. Trade-offs: Enables historical review but can crowd charts on dense timeframes. Plot Running Segment — Enables the curved polyline for live RSI trace. Default: true. Trade-offs: Visualizes intra-segment flow; disable for cleaner panes. Running RSI as Label — Displays current running RSI as a forward-projected label on the last bar. Default: false. Trade-offs: Useful for quick reads; may overlap in tight scales. Show Switch Label — Activates RSI pane labels on directional switches. Default: true. Trade-offs: Provides context; omit to minimize pane clutter. Show Switch Line (RSI) — Draws vertical dashed lines across the RSI range at switches. Default: true. Trade-offs: Marks reversal bars clearly; extends both ways for reference. Show Solid Overlay Line — Projects a horizontal line from switch price forward. Default: true. Trade-offs: Acts as dynamic support/resistance; wider lines enhance visibility. Show Dashed Overlay Line — Tracks a dashed line from switch to current close. Default: true. Trade-offs: Shows price deviation; thinner for subtlety. Show Percent Change Label — Midpoint label tracking percent move from switch. Default: true. Trade-offs: Quantifies progress; centers dynamically. Show Trend Strength Table — Displays right-side table with direction header and RSI bar. Default: true. Trade-offs: Instant strength gauge; fixed position avoids overlap. Activate Visualization After N Bars — Delays signals until this many bars into a segment. Default: 3. Trade-offs: Filters immature readings; higher values miss early momentum. Segment End Label — Color for completed RSI labels. Default: 7E57C2. Trade-offs: Purple tones for finality. Running RSI — Color for polyline and running elements. Default: yellow. Trade-offs: Bright for live tracking. Long — Color for bullish switch visuals. Default: green. Trade-offs: Standard for uptrends. Short — Color for bearish switch visuals. Default: red. Trade-offs: Standard for downtrends. Solid Line Width — Thickness of horizontal overlay line. Default: 2. Trade-offs: Bolder for emphasis on key levels. Dashed Line Width — Thickness of tracking and vertical lines. Default: 1. Trade-offs: Finer to avoid dominance. Reading & Interpretation Completed segment RSIs appear as static points or labels in purple, indicating the fixed momentum at period close—values drifting toward the upper half suggest building strength, while lower half implies weakness. The yellow curved polyline traces the live smoothed RSI within the current segment, rising for accumulating gains and falling for losses. Directional labels and lines in green or red flag switches: green for running momentum exceeding the prior segment's, signaling potential uptrend continuation; red for the opposite. The right table's header colors green for long, red for short, or gray for neutral/wait, with filled purple bars scaling from bottom (low RSI) to top (high), topped by the numeric value. Overlay elements project from switch bars: the solid green/red line as a price anchor, dashed tracker showing pullback extent, and percent label quantifying deviation—positive for alignment with direction, negative for counter-moves. Emojis (up arrow for long, down for short) float above/below price via ATR spacing for quick chart scans. Practical Workflows & Combinations - Trend Following: Enter long on green switch confirmation after a higher high in structure; filter with table strength above midpoint for conviction. Pair with volume surge for added weight. - Exits/Stops: Trail stops to the solid overlay line on pullbacks; exit if percent change reverses beyond 2 percent against direction. Use wait bars to confirm without chasing. - Multi-Asset/Multi-TF: Defaults suit forex/stocks on 1H-4H with daily segments; for crypto, shorten EMA to 5 for volatility. Scale segment TF to weekly for daily charts across indices. - Combinations: Overlay on EMA clouds for confluence—switch aligning with cloud break strengthens signal. Add volatility filters like ATR bands to debounce in low-volume regimes. Behavior, Constraints & Performance Signals confirm on bar close within segments, with running polyline updating live but gated by minimum bars to prevent flicker. Higher timeframe changes may introduce minor repaints on timeframe switches, mitigated by relying on confirmed HTF closes rather than intrabar peeks. Resource limits cap at 500 labels/lines and 50 polylines, pruning old objects on switches to stay efficient; no explicit loops, but array growth ties to segment length—suitable for up to 500-bar histories without lag. Known limits include delayed visualization in short segments and insensitivity to overbought/oversold levels, as thresholds are inputted but not actively visualized. Gaps in source data reset accumulators prematurely, potentially skewing early RSI. Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning Start with EMA length 10, daily segments, and 3-bar wait for balanced responsiveness on hourly charts. For excessive switches in ranging markets, increase wait bars to 5 or EMA to 14 to dampen noise. If signals lag in trends, drop EMA to 5 and use 1H segments. For stable assets like indices, widen to weekly segments; tune colors for dark/light themes without altering logic.

Liquidity Sweep & Reversal — Body Anchored + Risk (v6)Overview The Liquidity Sweep & Reversal — Locked to Price (v6) indicator identifies liquidity sweeps around major swing highs and lows, confirming reversals when price closes back inside the swept level. All signals are locked to price (bottom of green candle for BUY, top of red candle for SELL), so they remain perfectly aligned when zooming or scaling. This indicator is ideal for swing traders and scalpers who trade reversals, liquidity events, and reclaim structures. How It Works Detects confirmed swing highs and lows using a pivot-based structure. Waits for a liquidity sweep — when price wicks beyond a recent swing. Confirms a reclaim when price closes back inside the previous swing level. Triggers a BUY or SELL signal anchored to the candle body. Automatically calculates stop loss and risk using ATR and your inputs. Input Settings Swing Detection Swing Detection Strength: How many bars confirm a swing pivot. Higher = stronger swings. Bars to Confirm Reclaim: Number of bars after a sweep for price to close back within the swing zone. Swing Proximity %: How close price must come to a swing to count as a liquidity sweep. Trend Filter (optional) Use EMA Trend Filter: When enabled, only BUY in uptrend and SELL in downtrend. Fast EMA Length / Slow EMA Length: Define EMAs used to detect trend direction. Risk & Stop Management ATR Length: Period for ATR calculation (volatility measurement). Base ATR Stop Buffer (x ATR): Distance of stop loss from entry based on ATR multiplier. Position Size (quote units): Your total position size in quote currency (e.g., USDT). Risk % of (Position / 20): Defines how much of your position to risk per trade. Example: (Position / 20) × Risk % = per-trade risk. Chart Elements BUY Arrow (green): Appears after a liquidity sweep and reclaim near a swing low. SELL Arrow (red): Appears after a sweep and reclaim near a swing high. Labels: Display entry price, stop loss (SL), and calculated risk dollar value. EMAs: Optional fast/slow moving averages for directional bias. Dynamic Stops: Adjust automatically using ATR × risk settings. Trading Tips Use BUY signals near liquidity sweeps under swing lows. Use SELL signals near liquidity sweeps above swing highs. Adjust swing length for different timeframes: Lower values for scalping (3–5) Higher values for swing trading (7–10) Respect stop loss levels and use risk control settings for consistent sizing. Combine with volume, OBV, or structure for confirmation. Alerts BUY — Locked to Price: "BUY: swing low reclaimed with dynamic stop." SELL — Locked to Price: "SELL: swing high reclaimed with dynamic stop." Best Use Cases Liquidity-based reversals Swing entry confirmation Stop hunt reclaims Structure-based entries Author Created by @roccodallas For traders who value clean structure, risk control, and chart precision.

Buy-Sell Indicator - Michael FernandesThis indicator combines ATR-based trailing stops with EMA crossovers to generate clear buy and sell signals. It adapts dynamically to market volatility using the Average True Range (ATR) and optionally computes signals from Heikin-Ashi candles for smoother trends. How It Works: 1. ATR Trailing Stop: Calculates a dynamic stop level above or below price depending on trend direction. 2. EMA Confirmation: A 1-period EMA crossover with the trailing stop helps validate entries. 3. Buy Signal: Triggered when price crosses above the trailing stop and EMA confirms momentum. 4. Sell Signal: Triggered when price crosses below the trailing stop and EMA confirms reversal. Inputs: 1. Key Value (a): Sensitivity multiplier (higher = tighter stop, more signals). 2. ATR Period (c): Length of ATR used to measure volatility. 3. Heikin-Ashi Mode (h): Option to use smoothed candle data for cleaner trends.

TheStrat: Failed 2 + 2 ConfirmationTheStrat: Failed-2 + 2 Confirmation (2-2 option) This indicator spots a classic Strat “failed 2 → 2” sequence on consecutive bars, and fires alerts only when both conditions are met: Failed-2 bar on the prior candle Failed 2-Down (F2D): Took the prior low but closed green Failed 2-Up (F2U): Took the prior high but closed red By default this is strict (excludes outside bars/3’s). You can toggle to allow 3’s if you prefer a looser definition. Current bar is a clean “2” 2U = broke prior high only; 2D = broke prior low only (excludes 3’s). Optional: Require flip so the second bar must reverse direction (F2D→2U for longs, F2U→2D for shorts). Turn this off if you want any 2 after a Failed-2. What gets plotted Tiny markers on each Failed-2 as they occur (F2U/F2D). A label when the combo confirms on the next bar: Bullish: F2D→2U (or F2D→2 if flip is off) below the bar Bearish: F2U→2D (or F2U→2) above the bar Alerts (set from the “Add Alert” dialog) Failed2 + 2 (Bull): Prior bar was F2D; current bar is a 2 (flip optional). Failed2 + 2 (Bear): Prior bar was F2U; current bar is a 2 (flip optional). Inputs Colors for Failed-2 markers and combo labels Require flip (on by default) → focuses on true 2-2 reversals Count outside bars (3) as Failed-2? (off by default) → stricter = fewer, cleaner signals How to trade it (typical Strat style) Bullish combo (F2D→2U): Entry on break of the combo bar’s high; risk under its low (or under the prior bar). Bearish combo (F2U→2D): Entry on break of the combo bar’s low; risk above its high. First target = prior pivot (“magnitude”), then nearby pivots/BF levels. Improve odds by aligning with time-frame continuity (e.g., day/week in your direction). Notes / Best practices Uses barstate.isconfirmed → signals/labels are based on closed bars to avoid repaint. If you see too many Failed-2 tags, keep outside-bar counting OFF (strict mode).

Ultra-Fast Scalp Predictor 2This is a Pine Script (version 5) indicator engineered for ultra-low latency scalping, optimized specifically for very short timeframes (1-second to 1-minute charts) to predict price direction over the next 30-60 seconds. It operates as a single, composite directional score by combining six highly sensitive, fast-moving analytical components. Core Prediction Methodology: The indicator calculates a single predictionScore which is a sum of six weighted factors, designed to capture immediate changes in market momentum, volatility, and order flow pressure. The Prediction Score determines the signal: predictUp: predictionScore is greater than the Bull Threshold ($\text{Sensitivity} \times 10$). predictDown: predictionScore is less than the Bear Threshold ($\text{Sensitivity} \times -10$). confidence: Calculated as the normalized absolute magnitude of the predictionScore relative to a theoretical maximum (math.abs(predictionScore) / 50 \times 100).

This means it must be run on the lowest available timeframe (e.g., 1-second or 1-minute chart, as it analyzes minute-to-minute changes). lookback (Default 8): The period used for various moving averages and extreme detection (micro highs/lows). sensitivity (Default 1.0): Controls the threshold for generating a signal. A lower value requires the predictionScore to be less extreme to trigger an 'Up' or 'Down' signal. Advanced Features: It includes toggles for specialized components like ML Pattern Recognition, Tick Flow Analysis, and Liquidity Zone Detection, even though the "ML" part is purely algorithmic and not actual machine learning (Pine Script doesn't support true ML).
