Early Trend Warning Using MTF AnalysisAs an active trader and software professional, I build my own indicators. I built this one today which I want to share with fellow traders. If you are a trend trader then HTF/MTF analysis is very critical. It is virtually impossible to constantly track multiple tickers all the time. One should not take a buy trade when MTF is bearish and vice versa. This indicator solves this problem. The EMA Trend Warning indicator helps traders detect potential trend changes early by analyzing price interactions with multi-timeframe Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and their momentum. It sends instant alerts when price crosses above or below EMAs with supporting momentum, making it easier to capture bullish or bearish moves. The EMA Trend Warning indicator detects potential trend changes by monitoring price against 14-period EMAs on multiple timeframes: 15-minute, 30-minute, and 1-hour charts. It sends alerts when the price crosses above or below the EMA with supporting momentum, helping traders identify early bullish or bearish signals. How It Works: 1. Calculates 14-period EMA on 15m, 30m, and 1H charts. 2. Computes EMA slopes to determine momentum direction. 3. BUY alert triggers when price crosses above the 15m EMA and at least one EMA slope is upward. 4. SELL alert triggers when price crosses below the 15m EMA and at least one EMA slope is downward. 5. Alerts fire once per bar and track previous state to avoid repeated notifications. Features: 1. Multi-timeframe EMA monitoring. 2. Momentum confirmation with EMA slopes. 3. Instant BUY/SELL alerts. 4. Tracks previous trend state to prevent alert spam. Benefits: 1. Detects trend changes early for better entry timing. 2. Confirms trend across multiple timeframes. 3. Saves time with automated alerts. 4. Helps traders align trades with market momentum. Please consider this indicator as EARLY WARNING ONLY. Take trade based on multiple confluences post receiving any warning. I have tested it on BTCUSD since yesterday, multiple warning alerts were 100% perfect.

VWAP TOOL KIT (RyanTradesES)VWAP TOOL KIT — RyanTradesES The VWAP Tool Kit is a session-aware, intraday market structure indicator designed for futures and active index traders who rely on VWAP, opening range behavior, and RTH context to frame high-probability trades. This tool consolidates multiple VWAP regimes, key session levels, and adaptive EMA smoothing into a single, clean overlay—removing the need to stack multiple indicators or scripts. Core Features Opening Range (9:30–9:45 NY) Automatically tracks and shades the Opening Range Extends through RTH to provide a clear structural reference Rendered behind price for clarity (non-intrusive) VWAP Suite Overnight VWAP (resets at 6:00 PM NY) 24-Hour NY VWAP (resets at 9:30 AM NY) Previous Day NY VWAP (calculated from prior RTH) Anchored VWAP with manual date/time control Each VWAP can be independently enabled, styled, and sourced. RTH High / Low Tracks Regular Trading Hours (9:30–16:00 NY) Updates dynamically and resets daily Useful for range expansion, rejection, and bias confirmation EMA + Advanced Smoothing Base EMA with adjustable length, source, and offset Optional EMA-based smoothing layer: SMA EMA RMA (SMMA) WMA VWMA SMA + Bollinger Bands Bollinger Bands adapt directly to EMA behavior, not raw price Legend / HUD Compact, auto-updating legend in the chart corner Displays only active modules Fully optional and customizable Design Philosophy This indicator is built for clarity and context, not signals. It is meant to help traders: Identify VWAP acceptance vs rejection Frame bias using session structure Align EMA behavior with VWAP positioning Reduce chart clutter while increasing information density All components are modular—use everything, or only what fits your strategy. Recommended Use Intraday futures (ES, NQ, RTY, YM) VWAP-based mean reversion and trend continuation Opening range and RTH structure trading Discretionary or rules-based execution Notes Times are calculated using New York session logic This indicator does not generate trade signals Designed for educational and analytical use How I Personally Use This I use this tool primarily for context, not entries. My focus is on how price behaves around the Overnight VWAP, 24H NY VWAP, and Previous Day VWAP during the first part of RTH. I pay close attention to whether price is accepting above or below VWAPs rather than crossing them. The Opening Range gives me an early framework for volatility and directional intent, while RTH High/Low helps me stay aware of where price is expanding versus stalling. The EMA and smoothing layer are used to judge momentum quality—when EMA structure aligns with VWAP positioning, I’m more interested; when they diverge, I’m more patient. Example Framework (Not Trade Advice) One way this indicator can be used is by observing price behavior after the Opening Range is set. If price holds above the Overnight and 24H VWAPs and the EMA structure remains supportive, that suggests stronger acceptance during RTH. In contrast, repeated failure to reclaim VWAP levels while EMA smoothing rolls over may indicate weakening participation. Anchored VWAP can be used to measure response around specific events such as session opens, highs/lows, or high-volume turns. This framework is intended to help structure decisions, not automate them.

Manipulation Candle (RIC) V0.2Interpretation and Trading Use Boxed Candles: Represent 15-minute periods with unusually high range relative to daily volatility. These may signal: Market manipulation (e.g., stop hunts or fakeouts). Breakouts, reversals, or high-impact news. Entry/exit points in strategies focusing on volatility expansion. No Boxes: Indicates normal or low-volatility candles (range < threshold). Multi-Timeframe Analysis: On lower timeframes (e.g., 5-min), boxes encompass multiple bars. On higher (e.g., 1-hour), they highlight specific 15-min segments. Example: On a volatile stock like TSLA, a 0.2 multiplier might highlight candles during earnings releases, aiding in spotting trading opportunities. Limitations and Considerations Drawing Limits: TradingView caps drawing objects at ~500 per script. On long histories, older boxes may not load—zoom in or reduce chart bars. Data Availability: Requires 15-minute and daily data; may not work on illiquid symbols or non-standard charts (e.g., Renko). Real-Time Delays: Boxes appear only after 15-min closes; no intra-bar drawing. No Alerts Built-In: Add custom alerts via TradingView's alert system (e.g., on condition changes). Performance: Efficient, but on very low timeframes with long history, it may use more resources due to persistent boxes. Customization: For extensions (e.g., labels, multiple timeframes), modify the code carefully in Pine Script® v6 to avoid errors. Version History V0.2: Added persistent historical boxes; refined new candle detection. Future Updates: Potential additions like box limits or multi-multiplier support. Check for updates in the script comments. If you encounter issues or need customizations, refer to TradingView's Pine Script® documentation or community forums. For error-free extensions in Pine Script® v6, ensure proper variable scoping, type declarations, and testing on historical data.

Smart Triangles & S/R SystemOverview This indicator is a comprehensive technical analysis tool designed to automatically identify dynamic chart patterns and institutional support/resistance structures. Its primary focus is on detecting valid Triangle Patterns (Symmetrical, Ascending, Descending) and identifying high-probability breakout zones using a proprietary "Smart Apex" algorithm. Why is this script Protected? This script utilizes a unique, custom-built algorithm called "Smart Start & Apex Validation". Unlike standard pivot-based indicators, this system dynamically recalculates the starting points of trendlines to exclude false wicks and noise (Smart Start). Furthermore, it employs a geometric validation logic that calculates the exact intersection point (Apex) of the trendlines to ensure the triangle exists in the future and has not already invalidated itself mathematically. Due to the complex and proprietary nature of these calculation methods and the specific filtering logic for "Fresh" vs. "Broken" horizontal levels, the source code is protected to maintain the integrity of the strategy. Key Features Smart Triangle Detection: Uses Pivot Highs/Lows to draw trendlines. Smart Start Logic: Automatically shifts the trendline start point if a candle body violates the slope, ensuring lines "hug" the price action correctly. Apex Validation: Ensures lines are converging and the intersection point is valid. Institutional S/R Levels: Automatically plots horizontal Support and Resistance levels based on historical pivot clusters. Distinguishes between Fresh Levels (Untouched) and Broken Levels (flipped S/R), color-coded for visual clarity. Dynamic Targets: Projects breakout targets based on the triangle's opening height (Base). Target Memory: Once a breakout occurs, the target remains fixed on the chart until a completely new pattern invalidates it, allowing traders to track the trade lifecycle. How to Use Trendlines: Look for price compression between the Red (Resistance) and Green (Support) dotted lines. Breakouts: Wait for a candle close outside the triangle structure. The indicator will generate a "Target Flag" indicating the potential price objective. Confluence: Use the horizontal S/R lines as confirmation for entry or stop-loss placement. Settings Triangles: Adjust pivot lengths to catch larger or smaller structures. Toggle "Smart Start" for cleaner lines. Slope Rules: Filter out weak patterns by enforcing minimum slope requirements. S/R Zones: Customize the lookback period and visibility of horizontal levels. Development & Feedback I am actively developing this tool to make it the definitive structure indicator. I highly value community feedback. Please leave your suggestions or feature requests in the comments section below. I read all feedback to improve future versions. Disclaimer: This tool is for educational purposes and assists in technical analysis. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Price Action High 2 + Risk/Reward VisualizerIntroduction: Price Action High 2 (Bull Flag) Setup This script identifies the High 2 (H2) setup, a staple price action pattern popularized by Al Brooks. The High 2 is a high-probability continuation pattern designed to catch the resumption of a bull trend after a two-legged pullback (a "complex" bull flag). In a strong uptrend, the first attempt to end a pullback often fails (High 1). The High 2 represents the second, and usually more reliable, attempt by bulls to take control, often forming a "double bottom" structure within the flag. How the Logic Works The indicator follows a strict state-machine logic to ensure the pattern is valid: Trend Confirmation: The script filters for an established uptrend where price is above a rising EMA (adjustable in settings). Pullback Identification: It looks for a sequence of bars making lower highs. High 1 (H1): The first bar in the correction that breaks above the high of the prior bar. The Second Leg: The script then waits for the price to again fail to break a high, confirming a second leg of the pullback. High 2 (H2): The signal is triggered when a bar breaks the high of the previous bar for the second time. Key Features Signal Bar Quality Filter: Not all High 2s are equal. This script includes a filter ensuring the signal bar closes in the upper portion of its range (bullish conviction) to avoid "weak" breakouts. Automated Risk/Reward Visualizer: Upon a signal, the script automatically projects a Stop Loss (at the signal bar low) and a Take Profit level based on a customizable R:R ratio. Clean Visuals: Labeled "H2" markers and dashed trend lines keep the chart uncluttered. How to Trade It Entry: Place a buy-stop order 1 tick above the High 2 signal bar. Stop Loss: Traditionally placed below the low of the signal bar or the most recent swing low. Target: Common targets include a 1:2 Risk/Reward ratio or the previous major swing high. Settings Guide EMA Length: Adjust this to match your timeframe (e.g., 20 for intraday, 50 for daily). Min Close %: Set this to 50% or higher to ensure you only take trades where the bulls finished the bar strong. Risk:Reward Ratio: Customize your profit targets to align with your personal trading plan.

Golden Zone Structure [Kodexius]Golden Zone Structure is a ZigZag based market structure and Fibonacci tool designed to make swing context easier to read directly on the price chart. It detects meaningful pivot highs and lows, labels the evolving structure (HH, HL, LH, LL, including equal highs and lows), and automatically projects a Fibonacci map across the most recent completed swing. Instead of forcing you to manually anchor Fib tools after every new leg, the script rebuilds levels each time a fresh pivot is confirmed. This makes it well suited for traders who focus on swing continuation, pullback depth, and reaction zones where liquidity and orderflow often concentrate. A key emphasis is the Golden Zone highlight. The indicator shades the zone that is most relevant to the current swing context so you can quickly spot where a retracement is approaching a higher probability reaction area, without cluttering the chart with too many permanent objects. The tool is intentionally visual and configurable. You can choose pivot source (High/Low or Close), adjust swing sensitivity via ZigZag period, switch color themes, and decide how much detail you want on screen (levels, zigzag lines, labels). Optional trading markers can be enabled for users who want a lightweight “zone interaction” prompt. These markers are not intended as a standalone trading system. They are meant to complement your own confirmation rules (structure alignment, volume, higher timeframe bias, or price action triggers). 🔹Features 🔸 ZigZag Swing Engine - Uses a configurable ZigZag period to filter noise and confirm swing points only when the lookback logic validates the move. Supports different pivot sources (High/Low or Close) so you can choose between cleaner structure or more reactive behavior depending on the instrument. Optional ZigZag leg drawing to visualize swing flow without clutter. 🔸 Market Structure Labels (HH, HL, LH, LL + Equals) - Automatically labels each confirmed pivot based on how it compares to the prior pivot of the same type. High side classification: H, HH, LH, EH. Low side classification: L, HL, LL, EL. Equal highs and lows help reveal potential liquidity pools and “magnet” areas where price often reacts or breaks with intent. 🔸 Auto Fibonacci Map on the Active Swing - Rebuilds Fibonacci levels every time a new pivot is confirmed, keeping the projection aligned with the most recent completed leg. Core retracement levels: 0.236, 0.382, 0.500, 0.618, 0.786. Extension levels: 1.272 and 1.618 for expansion targeting and continuation mapping. Optional price labels on each level, formatted to tick size so levels remain readable across markets. 🔸 Golden Zone Highlighting (Context Aware) - Highlights the most relevant retracement band with a soft fill so you can spot “zone approach” moments at a glance. The zone selection adapts to swing context, focusing on a different retracement region depending on whether the last confirmed pivot is a peak or a trough. Adjustable transparency keeps the chart clean while preserving the key reaction area. 🔸 Visual Customization + Themes - Multiple color themes (Neon, Ocean, Sunset, Monochrome) so the tool fits different chart styles and backgrounds. Independent toggles for Fib levels, Golden Zone shading, ZigZag lines, and price labels. Line width controls for better scaling across timeframes. 🔸 Optional Trading Markers + Alerts - Optional BUY and SELL labels based on zone interaction logic with candle confirmation filters. ATR based placement offset scaled by sensitivity so labels stay visually separated during volatility. Built in alert conditions for new pivot highs and new pivot lows so you can monitor structure changes without watching every bar. ▶ Practical Usage Tip • Use structure labels to define bias (HH + HL for bullish structure, LH + LL for bearish structure). • Use the Golden Zone as a location filter, then wait for your own trigger (break of minor structure, rejection candle, volume shift, etc.). • Treat extensions as “map points” not guaranteed targets. They work best when structure supports continuation.

Performance with Okuninushi Line Area Determinations**Performance Indicator with Market Structure Analysis** Building upon TradingView's official Performance indicator, I've added a custom column to assess current market structure using my Okuninushi Line methodology, which visualizes the AB structure concept. **What is the AB Structure?** The AB structure identifies equilibrium levels based on recent price action. The Okuninushi Line calculates the 50% midpoint between the highest high and lowest low over a specified lookback period. In this implementation, I use a 65-day period on the daily timeframe (representing one quarter: 13 weeks × 5 trading days), though this is fully customizable. **Market Structure Classification:** - **Above Okuninushi Line** → "upper to okuni" → Price is in the **Premium Area** (bullish structure) - **Below Okuninushi Line** → "down to okuni" → Price is in the **Discount Area** (bearish structure) This additional column provides an instant visual reference for whether each asset is currently trading above or below its equilibrium level, complementing the traditional performance metrics with structural context. ---
