Quantura - Average Intraday Candle VolumeIntroduction
“Quantura – Average Intraday Candle Volume” is a quantitative visualization tool that calculates and displays the average traded volume for each intraday time position based on a user-defined historical lookback period. It allows traders to analyze recurring intraday volume patterns, identify high-activity sessions, and detect liquidity shifts throughout the trading day.
Originality & Value
This indicator goes beyond standard volume averages by normalizing and aligning volume data according to the time of day. Instead of simply smoothing recent bars, it builds an intraday volume profile based on historical daily averages, enabling users to understand when during the day volume typically peaks or drops.
Its originality and usefulness come from:
Converting standard volume data into time-aligned intraday averages.
Visualization of historical intraday liquidity behavior, not just total daily volume.
Dynamic scaling using normalization and transparency to emphasize active and quiet periods.
Optional day-separator lines for precise intraday structure recognition.
Gradient-based coloring for better visual interpretation of volume intensity.
Functionality & Core Logic
The indicator divides each day into discrete intraday time positions (based on chart timeframe).
For each position, it stores and updates historical volume values across the selected number of days.
It calculates an average volume per time position by aggregating all stored values and dividing them by the number of valid days.
The result is plotted as a continuous histogram showing typical intraday volume distribution.
The bar colors and transparency dynamically reflect the relative intensity of volume at each point in the day.
Parameters & Customization
Number of Days for Averaging: Defines how many past days are included in the volume average calculation (default: 365).
UTC Offset: Allows synchronization of intraday cycles with local or exchange time zones.
Base Color: Sets the main color for plotted volume columns.
Color Mode: Choose between “Gradient” (transparency dynamically adjusts by intensity) or “Normal” (fixed opacity).
Day Line: Toggles dashed vertical lines marking the start of each trading day.
Visualization & Display
Volume is plotted as a series of histogram bars, each representing the average volume for a specific intraday time position.
A gradient color mode enhances readability by fading lower-intensity areas and highlighting high-volume regions.
Optional day-separator lines visually segment historical sessions for easy reference.
Works seamlessly across all chart timeframes that divide the 24-hour day into regular bar intervals.
Use Cases
Identify when trading activity typically peaks (e.g., session opens, news windows, or overlapping markets).
Compare current intraday volume to historical averages for early anomaly detection.
Enhance algorithmic or discretionary strategies that depend on volume-timing alignment.
Combine with volatility or price structure indicators to confirm market activity zones.
Evaluate session consistency across different time zones using the UTC offset parameter.
Limitations & Recommendations
The indicator requires intraday data (below 1D resolution) to function properly.
Volume behavior may vary across brokers and assets; adjust averaging period accordingly.
Does not predict price movement — it provides volume-based context for analysis.
Works best when combined with structure or momentum-based indicators.
Markets & Timeframes
Compatible with all intraday markets — including crypto, Forex, equities, and futures — and all intraday timeframes (from 1 minute to 4 hours). It is particularly valuable for analyzing assets with continuous 24-hour trading activity.

Killzone Session High/Low Levels [SmartFoxy]Killzone Session High/Low Levels
The Killzone Session High/Low Levels indicator by SmartFoxy provides a complete intraday framework for understanding session-based liquidity, market structure rotation, and breakout behavior across global trading sessions.
It automatically plots the High/Low ranges for each selected session, highlights session killzones, and tracks breakout events with optional alerts.
This tool is designed for traders who rely on session dynamics (Asia, Frankfurt, London, New York) to identify liquidity targets, sweep zones, key ranges, and continuation/reversal opportunities.
________________________________________
How It Works
The indicator detects the active trading sessions for each day and builds structural High/Low ranges for them:
• Asia Session Range (High/Low);
• Frankfurt Session Range;

APXTradez - Intraday RSI (8)🔹 APXTradez Intraday RSI (8)
Purpose:
A fast-reacting momentum and bias indicator built for intraday options and scalping setups. This version of RSI (8) identifies immediate shifts in strength, momentum slope, and trend bias—allowing traders to spot reversals, momentum builds, or choppy zones within seconds.
What It Shows
RSI (8) → ultra-responsive short-term strength indicator.
Bias Zones:
- Bull Bias (Green) – RSI rising above 55 with slope up → intraday long setups favored.
- Bear Bias (Red) – RSI falling below 45 with slope down → short setups favored.
- Chop (Gray) – Neutral area between 45–55 → reduced edge, wait for direction.
- Background Color: Highlights current bias (green/red/gray) for quick visual confirmation.
- Dynamic Label: Displays live bias text on chart (Bull, Bear, or Chop).
How to Use
Apply on 1m–15m charts for day trading or scalping options.
Trade in bias direction:
- Enter long when RSI crosses + slopes above 55 (bull bias).
- Enter short when RSI crosses + slopes below 45 (bear bias).
- Avoid chop zones (RSI between 45–55 or flat). Wait for a slope confirmation.
Combine with APX Intraday VWAP + EMA overlay, APX TTM Squeeze, and/or the APX MACD to align direction with trend and volume pressure.
Overbought/Oversold: Above 70 or below 30 still mark exhaustion zones — use for exits, not entries.
Best Use Case
Intraday confirmation of trend bias and momentum strength — helping you stay on the right side of fast-moving setups and avoid low-edge chop.
APXTradez - Intraday Overlay (VWAP + EMAs)🔹 APXTradez Intraday Overlay (VWAP + EMAs)
Purpose:
A clean, real-time intraday framework built for options scalpers and day traders.
This overlay combines VWAP, 8/21 EMAs, Bollinger Bands, and Keltner Channels to visualize short-term momentum, trend structure, and volatility compression directly on your chart.
What It Shows
8 EMA (teal) → Fast momentum and micro-trend direction.
21 EMA (orange) → Short-term trend confirmation and pullback zone.
VWAP (aqua) → Institutional average price; key intraday bias level.
Bollinger Bands (lime) → Standard deviation volatility envelope.
Keltner Channels (fuchsia) → ATR-based volatility range.
Compression Highlight (orange) → Shows when BBs are inside KCs, signaling volatility contraction and potential breakout setup.
How to Use
Apply on 1-min to 15-min charts for intraday trading.
Trend bias:
Price above VWAP and 8/21 EMA stack = bullish intraday momentum.
Price below VWAP and 8/21 EMA stack = bearish bias.
- Compression zones (orange highlights):
Indicates low-volatility consolidation → prepare for breakout.
Wait for breakout direction confirmation before entry.
Combine with momentum indicators (like APX TTM Squeeze, APX RSI or MACD) for confirmation.
Best Use Case
Scalping or day-trading options during high-volume sessions where VWAP and EMA structure drive precision entries and exits.
Luxy BIG beautiful Dynamic ORBThis is an advanced Opening Range Breakout (ORB) indicator that tracks price breakouts from the first 5, 15, 30, and 60 minutes of the trading session. It provides complete trade management including entry signals, stop-loss placement, take-profit targets, and position sizing calculations.
The ORB strategy is based on the concept that the opening range of a trading session often acts as support/resistance, and breakouts from this range tend to lead to significant moves.
What Makes This Different?
Most ORB indicators simply draw horizontal lines and leave you to figure out the rest. This indicator goes several steps further:
Multi-Stage Tracking
Instead of just one ORB timeframe, this tracks FOUR simultaneously (5min, 15min, 30min, 60min). Each stage builds on the previous one, giving you multiple trading opportunities throughout the session.
Active Trade Management
When a breakout occurs, the indicator automatically calculates and displays entry price, stop-loss, and multiple take-profit targets. These lines extend forward and update in real-time until the trade completes.
Cycle Detection
Unlike indicators that only show the first breakout, this tracks the complete cycle: Breakout → Retest → Re-breakout. You can see when price returns to test the ORB level after breaking out (potential re-entry).
Failed Breakout Warning
If price breaks out but quickly returns inside the range (within a few bars), the label changes to "FAILED BREAK" - warning you to exit or avoid the trade.
Position Sizing Calculator
Built-in risk management that tells you exactly how many shares to buy based on your account size and risk tolerance. No more guessing or manual calculations.
Advanced Filtering
Optional filters for volume confirmation, trend alignment, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG) to reduce false signals and improve win rate.
Core Features Explained
### 1. Multi-Stage ORB Levels
The indicator builds four separate Opening Range levels:
ORB 5 - First 5 minutes (fastest signals, most volatile)
ORB 15 - First 15 minutes (balanced, most popular)
ORB 30 - First 30 minutes (slower, more reliable)
ORB 60 - First 60 minutes (slowest, most confirmed)
Each level is drawn as a horizontal range on your chart. As time progresses, the ranges expand to include more price action. You can enable or disable any stage and assign custom colors to each.
How it works: During the opening minutes, the indicator tracks the highest high and lowest low. Once the time period completes, those levels become your ORB high and low for that stage.
### 2. Breakout Detection
When price closes outside the ORB range, a label appears:
BREAK UP (green label above price) - Price closed above ORB High
BREAK DOWN (red label below price) - Price closed below ORB Low
The label shows which ORB stage triggered (ORB5, ORB15, etc.) and the cycle number if tracking multiple breakouts.
Important: Signals appear on bar close only - no repainting. What you see is what you get.
### 3. Retest Detection
After price breaks out and moves away, if it returns to test the ORB level, a "RETEST" label appears (orange). This indicates:
The original breakout level is now acting as support/resistance
Potential re-entry opportunity if you missed the first breakout
Confirmation that the level is significant
The indicator requires price to move a minimum distance away before considering it a valid retest (configurable in settings).
### 4. Failed Breakout Detection
If price breaks out but returns inside the ORB range within a few bars (before the breakout is "committed"), the original label changes to "FAILED BREAK" in orange.
This warns you:
The breakout lacked conviction
Consider exiting if already in the trade
Wait for better setup
Committed Breakout: The indicator tracks how many bars price stays outside the range. Only after staying outside for the minimum number of bars does it become a committed breakout that can be retested.
### 5. TP/SL Lines (Trade Management)
When a breakout occurs, colored horizontal lines appear showing:
Entry Line (cyan for long, orange for short) - Your entry price (the ORB level)
Stop Loss Line (red) - Where to exit if trade goes against you
TP1, TP2, TP3 Lines (same color as entry) - Profit targets at 1R, 2R, 3R
These lines extend forward as new bars form, making it easy to track your trade. When a target is hit, the line turns green and the label shows a checkmark.
Lines freeze (stop updating) when:
Stop loss is hit
The final enabled take-profit is hit
End of trading session (optional setting)
### 6. Position Sizing Dashboard
The dashboard (bottom-left corner by default) shows real-time information:
Current ORB stage and range size
Breakout status (Inside Range / Break Up / Break Down)
Volume confirmation (if filter enabled)
Trend alignment (if filter enabled)
Entry and Stop Loss prices
All enabled Take Profit levels with percentages
Risk/Reward ratio
Position sizing: Max shares to buy and total risk amount
Position Sizing Example:
If your account is $25,000 and you risk 1% per trade ($250), and the distance from entry to stop loss is $0.50, the calculator shows you can buy 500 shares (250 / 0.50 = 500).
### 7. FVG Filter (Fair Value Gap)
Fair Value Gaps are price inefficiencies - gaps left by strong momentum where one candle's high doesn't overlap with a previous candle's low (or vice versa).
When enabled, this filter:
Detects bullish and bearish FVGs
Draws semi-transparent boxes around these gaps
Only allows breakout signals if there's an FVG near the breakout level
Why this helps: FVGs indicate institutional activity. Breakouts through FVGs tend to be stronger and more reliable.
Proximity setting: Controls how close the FVG must be to the ORB level. 2.0x means the breakout can be within 2 times the FVG size - a reasonable default.
### 8. Volume & Trend Filters
Volume Filter:
Requires current volume to be above average (customizable multiplier). High volume breakouts are more likely to sustain.
Set minimum multiplier (e.g., 1.5x = 50% above average)
Set "strong volume" multiplier (e.g., 2.5x) that bypasses other filters
Dashboard shows current volume ratio
Trend Filter:
Only shows breakouts aligned with a higher timeframe trend. Choose from:
VWAP - Price above/below volume-weighted average
EMA - Price above/below exponential moving average
SuperTrend - ATR-based trend indicator
Combined modes (VWAP+EMA, VWAP+SuperTrend) for stricter filtering
### 9. Pullback Filter (Advanced)
Purpose:
Waits for price to pull back slightly after initial breakout before confirming the signal.
This reduces false breakouts from immediate reversals.
How it works:
- After breakout is detected, indicator waits for a small pullback (default 2%)
- Once pullback occurs AND price breaks out again, signal is confirmed
- If no pullback within timeout period (5 bars), signal is issued anyway
Settings:
Enable Pullback Filter: Turn this filter on/off
Pullback %: How much price must pull back (2% is balanced)
Timeout (bars): Max bars to wait for pullback (5 is standard)
When to use:
- Choppy markets with many fake breakouts
- When you want higher quality signals
- Combine with Volume filter for maximum confirmation
Trade-off:
- Better signal quality
- May miss some valid fast moves
- Slight entry delay
How to Use This Indicator
### For Beginners - Simple Setup
Add the indicator to your chart (5-minute or 15-minute timeframe recommended)
Leave all default settings - they work well for most stocks
Watch for BREAK UP or BREAK DOWN labels to appear
Check the dashboard for entry, stop loss, and targets
Use the position sizing to determine how many shares to buy
Basic Trading Plan:
Wait for a clear breakout label
Enter at the ORB level (or next candle open if you're late)
Place stop loss where the red line indicates
Take profit at TP1 (50% of position) and TP2 (remaining 50%)
### For Advanced Traders - Customized Setup
Choose which ORB stages to track (you might only want ORB15 and ORB30)
Enable filters: Volume (stocks) or Trend (trending markets)
Enable FVG filter for institutional confirmation
Set "Track Cycles" mode to catch retests and re-breakouts
Customize stop loss method (ATR for volatile stocks, ORB% for stable ones)
Adjust risk per trade and account size for accurate position sizing
Advanced Strategy Example:
Enable ORB15 only (disable others for cleaner chart)
Turn on Volume filter at 1.5x with Strong at 2.5x
Enable Trend filter using VWAP
Set Signal Mode to "Track Cycles" with Max 3 cycles
Wait for aligned breakouts (Volume + Trend + Direction)
Enter on retest if you missed the initial break
### Timeframe Recommendations
5-minute chart: Scalping, very active trading, crypto
15-minute chart: Day trading, balanced approach (most popular)
30-minute chart: Swing entries, less screen time
60-minute chart: Position trading, longer holds
The indicator works on any intraday timeframe, but ORB is fundamentally a day trading strategy. Daily charts don't make sense for ORB.

## Tips & Best Practices
### General Trading Tips
ORB works best on liquid instruments (stocks with good volume, major crypto pairs)
First hour of the session is most important - that's when ORB is forming
Breakouts WITH the trend have higher success rates - use the trend filter
Failed breakouts are common - use the "Min Bars Outside" setting to filter weak moves
Not every day produces good ORB setups - be patient and selective
### Position Sizing Best Practices
Never risk more than 1-2% of your account on a single trade
Use the built-in calculator - don't guess your position size
Update your account size monthly as it grows
Smaller accounts: use $ Amount mode for simplicity
Larger accounts: use % of Account mode for scaling
### Take Profit Strategy
Most traders use: 50% at TP1, 50% at TP2
Aggressive: Hold through TP1 for TP2 or TP3
Conservative: Full exit at TP1 (1:1 risk/reward)
After TP1 hits, consider moving stop to breakeven
TP3 rarely hits - only on strong trending days
### Filter Combinations
Maximum Quality: Volume + Trend + FVG (fewest signals, highest quality)
Balanced: Volume + Trend (good quality, reasonable frequency)
Active Trading: No filters or Volume only (many signals, lower quality)
Trending Markets: Trend filter essential (indices, crypto)
Range-Bound: Volume + FVG (avoid trend filter)
### Common Mistakes to Avoid
Chasing breakouts - wait for the bar to close, don't FOMO into wicks
Ignoring the stop loss - always use it, move it manually if needed
Over-leveraging - the calculator shows MAX shares, you can buy less
Trading every signal - quality > quantity, use filters
Not tracking results - keep a journal to see what works for YOU

## Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why are no signals appearing?
A: Check that you're on an intraday timeframe (5min, 15min, etc.) and that the current time is within your session hours. Also verify that "Enable Breakout Detection" is ON and at least one ORB stage is enabled. If using filters, they might be blocking signals - try disabling them temporarily.
Q: What's the best ORB stage to use?
A: ORB15 (15 minutes) is most popular and balanced. ORB5 gives faster signals but more noise. ORB30 and ORB60 are slower but more reliable. Many traders use ORB15 + ORB30 together.
Q: Should I enable all the filters?
A: Start with no filters to see all signals. If too many false signals, add Volume filter first (stocks) or Trend filter (trending markets). FVG filter is most restrictive - use for maximum quality but fewer signals.
Q: How do I know which stop loss method to use?
A: ATR works for most cases - it adapts to volatility. Use ORB% if you want predictable stop placement. Swing is for respecting chart structure. Safer gives you the most room but largest risk.
Q: Can I use this for swing trading?
A: Not really - ORB is fundamentally an intraday strategy. The ranges reset each day. For swing trading, look at weekly support/resistance or moving averages instead.
Q: Why do TP/SL lines disappear sometimes?
A: Lines freeze (stop extending) when: stop loss is hit, the last enabled take-profit is hit, or end of session arrives (if "Freeze at EOD" is enabled). This is intentional - the trade is complete.
Q: What's the difference between "First Only" and "Track Cycles"?
A: "First Only" shows one breakout UP and one DOWN per day maximum - clean but might miss opportunities. "Track Cycles" shows breakout-retest-rebreak sequences - more signals but busier chart.
Q: Is position sizing accurate for options/forex?
A: The calculator is designed for shares (stocks). For options, ignore the share count and use the risk amount. For forex, you'll need to adapt the lot size calculation manually.
Q: How much capital do I need to use this?
A: The indicator works for any account size, but practical day trading typically requires $25,000 in the US due to Pattern Day Trader rules. Adjust the "Account Size" setting to match your capital.
Q: Can I backtest this strategy?
A: This is an indicator, not a strategy script, so it doesn't have built-in backtesting. You can visually review historical signals or code a strategy script using similar logic.
Q: Why does the dashboard show different entry price than the breakout label?
A: If you're looking at an old breakout, the ORB levels may have changed when the next stage completed. The dashboard always shows the CURRENT active range and trade setup.
Q: What's a good win rate to expect?
A: ORB strategies typically see 40-60% win rate depending on market conditions and filters used. The strategy relies on positive risk/reward ratios (2:1 or better) to be profitable even with moderate win rates.
Q: Does this work on crypto?
A: Yes, but crypto trades 24/7 so you need to define what "session start" means. Use Session Mode = Custom and set your preferred daily reset time (e.g., 0000-2359 UTC).

Volume Imbalances & Gann's Square IndicatorVolume Imbalances & Gann's Square Indicator:
This script is a comprehensive trading toolkit designed to help intraday and swing traders identify high-probability trade setups by combining the strengths of Gann's Theory, price-volume analysis, and multi-indicator signal confirmation in one indicator.
Key Features and Their Roles:
Gann’s S/R Levels:
Calculates main and auxiliary support/resistance lines using Gann’s “odd square” approach based on the current price. Levels are projected historically and into the future to clearly visualize critical zones for potential reversals and breakouts.
Volume*Price (VP) Spike Table:
Detects and displays real-time buy and sell volume spikes above a configurable threshold, highlighting large market transactions. The on-chart table summarizes recent major spikes with time and price for context, resetting every session.
Multi-EMA & VWAP Logic:
Integrates three customizable EMAs, VWAP, and Supertrend. Users can toggle signals from EMA crossovers, price-VWAP positioning, or Supertrend direction to match their preferred trading style and filter signals for trend or mean-reversion strategies.
Buy/Sell Labels and Signal Source Control:
Clearly plots buy/sell marker labels with customizable text, color, and size, based on the chosen signal source (EMA cross, VWAP, Supertrend). Labels offset from candles for easy visibility.
First Candle Range & Session Tools:
Plots the initial range (high, low, and midpoint) of a user-defined session, helping visualize and trade session breakouts or range retests. Session logic ensures all statistical tables and levels reset at session start.
Automated Risk/Reward Table:
Instantly calculates capital allocation, stop-loss, potential quantity, and two profit targets for both long and short trades. Helps traders plan size and risk per trade in compliance with risk management principles.
Highest/Lowest VP Markers:
Highlights the day’s peak and trough volume*price values for context on institutional buying or selling pressure.
Previous Day Range Plotter:
Draws previous session’s high/low levels for reliable reference zones and potential trade targets.
Integration Rationale:
All components are thoughtfully integrated to provide a holistic decision-making workflow:
Volume/price spikes act as momentum or liquidity signals.
Gann levels define the “where” for reaction or breakout trades.
Signal logics (EMA/VWAP/Supertrend) answer the “when,” enabling higher-confidence entries only when multiple conditions align.
How to Use:
Select your preferred inputs for EMAs, VWAP, and risk settings in the panel.
Analyze the chart for signals where buy/sell labels align with fresh VP spikes near Gann or previous day support/resistance.
Use the risk/reward table for strict money management.
Reference spike tables and session range for contextual confirmation.
Visuals and Chart Guidance:
The script displays only essential tables, lines, and labels described above.
All chart elements are explained in this description—no external scripts needed for interpretation.
Each table and marker is linked to actionable trading logic, eliminating clutter.
Closed-source Explanation:
The indicator uses session-based calculations, real-time data arrays, and proprietary math to unify Gann theory logic, large transaction detection, and multi-indicator confirmation. All major trade conditions have alert signals for ready integration with TradingView’s alert system.
HTF Fibonacci on intraday ChartThis indicator plots Higher Timeframe (HTF) Fibonacci retracement levels directly on your intraday chart, allowing you to visualize how the current price action reacts to key retracement zones derived from the higher timeframe trend.
Concept
Fibonacci retracement levels are powerful tools used to identify potential support and resistance zones within a price trend.
However, these levels are often calculated on a higher timeframe (like Daily or Weekly), while most traders execute entries on lower timeframes (like 15m, 30m, or 1H).
This indicator bridges that gap — it projects the higher timeframe’s Fibonacci levels onto your current intraday chart, helping you see where institutional reactions or swing pivots might occur in real time.
How It Works
Select the Higher Timeframe (HTF)
You can choose which higher timeframe the Fibonacci structure is derived from — default is Daily.
Define the Lookback Period
The script looks back over the chosen number of bars on the higher timeframe to find the highest high and lowest low — the base for Fibonacci calculations.
Plots Key Fibonacci Levels Automatically:
0% (Low)
23.6%
38.2%
50.0%
61.8%
78.6%
100% (High)
Dynamic Labels
Each Fibonacci level is labelled on the latest bar, updating in real time as new data forms on the higher timeframe.
Best Used For
Intraday traders who want to align lower-timeframe entries with higher-timeframe structure.
Swing traders confirming price reactions around major Fibonacci retracement zones.
Contextual analysis for pullback entries, breakout confirmations, or retests of key levels.
Recommended Settings
Higher Timeframe: Daily (for intraday analysis)
Lookback: 50 bars (adjust based on volatility)
Combine with MACD, RSI, CPR, or Pivots for confluence.

Friday & Monday HighlighterFriday & Monday Institutional Range Marker — Know Where Big Firms Set the Trap!
🧠 Description
This indicator automatically highlights Friday and Monday sessions on your chart — days when institutional players and algorithmic firms (like Citadel, Jane Street, or Tower Research) quietly shape the upcoming week’s price structure.
🔍 Why Friday & Monday matter
Friday : Large institutions often book profits or hedge into the weekend. Their final-hour moves reveal the next week’s bias.
Monday : Big players rebuild positions, absorbing liquidity left behind by retail traders.
Together, these two days define the range traps and breakout zones that often control price action until midweek.
> In short, the Friday–Monday high and low often act as invisible walls — guiding scalpers, option sellers, and swing traders alike.
🧩 What this tool does
✅ Highlights Friday (red) and Monday (green) sessions
✅ Adds optional day labels above bars
✅ Works across all timeframes (best on 15min to 1hr charts)
✅ Helps you visually identify where institutions likely built their positions
Use it to quickly spot:
* Range boundaries that trap traders
* Gap zones likely to get filled
* High–low sweeps before reversals
⚙️ Recommended Use
1. Mark Friday’s high–low → Watch for liquidity sweeps on Monday.
2. When Monday holds above Friday’s high , breakout continuation is likely.
3. When Monday fails below Friday’s low , expect a reversal or trap.
4. Combine this with OI shifts, IV crush, and FII–DII flow data for confirmation.

Universal Breakout Strategy [KedArc Quant]Description:
A flexible breakout framework where you can test different logics (Prev Day, Bollinger, Volume, ATR, EMA Trend, RSI Confirm, Candle Confirm, Time Filter) under one system.
Choose your breakout mode, and the strategy will handle entries, exits, and optional risk management (ATR stops, take-profits, daily loss guard, cooldowns).
An on-chart info table shows live mode values (like Prev High/Low, Bollinger levels, RSI, etc.) plus P&L stats for quick analysis.
Use it to compare which breakout style works best on your instrument and timeframe, whether intraday, swing, or positional trading
🔑 Why it’s useful
* Flexibility: Switch between breakout strategies without loading different indicators.
* Clarity: On-chart info table displays current mode, relevant indicator levels, and live strategy P&L stats.
* Testing efficiency: Quickly A/B test different breakout styles under the same backtest environment.
* Transparency: Every trade is rule-based and displayed with entry/exit markers.
🚀 How it helps traders
* Lets you experiment with breakout strategies quickly without loading multiple scripts.
* Helps identify which breakout method fits your instrument & timeframe.
* Gives clear on-chart visual + statistical feedback for confident decision-making.
⚙️ Input Configuration
* Breakout Mode → choose which strategy to test:
* *Prev Day* → breakouts of yesterday’s High/Low.
* *Bollinger* → Upper/Lower BB pierce.
* *Volume* → Breakout confirmed with volume above average.
* *ATR Stop* → Wide range breakout using ATR filter.
* *Time Filter* → Breakouts inside defined session hours.
* *EMA Trend* → Breakouts only in EMA fast > slow alignment.
* *RSI Confirm* → Breakouts with RSI confirmation (e.g. >55 for longs).
* *Candle Confirm* → Breakouts validated by bullish/bearish candle.
* Lookback / ATR / Bollinger inputs → adjust sensitivity.
* Intrabar mode → option to evaluate breakouts using bar highs/lows instead of closes.
* Table options → show/hide info table, show/hide P&L stats, choose corner placement.
📈 Entry & Exit Logic
* Entry → occurs when breakout condition of chosen mode is met.
* Exit → default exits via opposite signals or optional stop/target if enabled.
* Session filter → optional auto-flat at session end.
* P&L management → optional daily loss guard, cooldown between trades, and ATR-based stop/take profit.
❓ FAQ — Choosing the best setup
Q: Which strategy should I use for which chart?
* *Prev Day Breakouts*: Best on indices, FX, and liquid futures with strong daily levels.
* *Bollinger*: Works well in range-bound environments, or crypto pairs with volatility compression.
* *Volume*: Good on equities where breakout strength is tied to volume spikes.
* *ATR Stop*: Suits volatile instruments (commodities, crypto).
* *EMA Trend*: Useful in trending markets (stocks, indices).
* *RSI Confirm*: Adds momentum filter, better for swing trades.
* *Candle Confirm*: Ideal for scalpers needing visual confirmation.
* *Time Filter*: For intraday traders who want signals only in high-liquidity sessions.
Q: What timeframe should I use?
* Intraday traders → 5m to 15m (Time Filter, Candle Confirm).
* Swing traders → 1H to 4H (EMA Trend, RSI Confirm, ATR Stop).
* Position traders → Daily (Prev Day, Bollinger).
* Breakout
A trade entry condition triggered when price crosses above a resistance level (for longs) or below a support level (for shorts).
* Prev Day High/Low
Formula:
Prev High = High of (Day )
Prev Low = Low of (Day )
* Bollinger Bands
Formula:
Basis = SMA(Close, Length)
Upper Band = Basis + (Multiplier × StdDev(Close, Length))
Lower Band = Basis – (Multiplier × StdDev(Close, Length))
* Volume Confirmation
A breakout is only valid if:
Volume > SMA(Volume, Length)
* ATR (Average True Range)
Measures volatility.
Formula:
ATR = SMA(True Range, Length)
where True Range = max(High–Low, |High–Close |, |Low–Close |)
* EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
Weighted moving average giving more weight to recent prices.
Formula:
EMA = (Price × α) + (EMA × (1–α))
with α = 2 / (Length + 1)
* RSI (Relative Strength Index)
Momentum oscillator scaled 0–100.
Formula:
RSI = 100 – (100 / (1 + RS))
where RS = Avg(Gain, Length) ÷ Avg(Loss, Length)
* Candle Confirmation
Bullish candle: Close > Open AND Close > Close
Bearish candle: Close < Open AND Close < Close
Win Rate (%)
Formula:
Win Rate = (Winning Trades ÷ Total Trades) × 100
* Average Trade P&L
Formula:
Avg Trade = Net Profit ÷ Total Trades
📊 Performance Notes
The Universal Breakout Strategy is designed as a framework rather than a single-asset optimized system. Results will vary depending on the chart, timeframe, and asset chosen.
On the current defaults (15-minute, INR-denominated example), the backtest produced 132 trades over the selected period. This provides a statistically sufficient sample size.
Win rate (~35%) is relatively low, but this is balanced by a positive reward-to-risk ratio (~1.8). In practice, a lower win rate with larger wins versus smaller losses is sustainable.
The average P&L per trade is close to breakeven under default settings. This is expected, as the strategy is not tuned for a single symbol but offered as a universal breakout framework.
Commissions (0.1%) and slippage (1 tick) are included in the simulation, ensuring realistic conditions.
Risk management is conservative, with order sizing set at 1 unit per trade. This avoids over-leveraging and keeps exposure well under the 5-10% equity risk guideline.
👉 Traders are encouraged to:
Experiment with inputs such as ATR period, breakout length, or Bollinger parameters.
Test across different timeframes and instruments (equities, futures, forex, crypto) to find optimal setups.
Combine with filters (trend direction, volatility regimes, or volume conditions) for further refinement.

Foresight Cone (HoltxF1xVWAP) [KedArc Quant]Description:
This is a time-series forecasting indicator that estimates the next bar (F1) and projects a path a few bars ahead. It also draws a confidence cone based on how accurate the recent forecasts have been. You can optionally color the projection only when price agrees with VWAP.
Why it’s different
* One clear model: Everything comes from Holt’s trend-aware forecasting method—no mix of unrelated indicators.
* Transparent visuals: You see the next-bar estimate (F1), the forward projection, and a cone that widens or narrows based on recent forecast error.
* Context, not signals: The VWAP option only changes colors. It doesn’t add trade rules.
* No look-ahead: Accuracy is measured using the forecast made on the previous bar versus the current bar.
Inputs (what they mean)
* Source: Price series to forecast (default: Close).
* Preset: Quick profiles for fast, smooth, or momentum markets (see below).
* Alpha (Level): How fast the model reacts to new prices. Higher = faster, twitchier.
* Beta (Trend): How fast the model updates the slope. Higher = faster pivots, more flips in chop.
* Horizon: How many bars ahead to project. Bigger = wider cone.
* Residual Window: How many bars to judge recent accuracy. Bigger = steadier cone.
* Confidence Z: How wide the cone should be (typical setting ≈ “95% style” width).
* Show Bands / Draw Forward Path: Turn the cone and forward lines on/off.
* Color only when aligned with VWAP: Highlights projections only when price agrees with the trend side of VWAP.
* Colors / Show Panel: Styling plus a small panel with RMSE, MAPE, and trend slope.
Presets (when to pick which)
* Scalp / Fast (1-min): Very responsive; best for quick moves. More twitch in chop.
* Smooth Intraday (1–5 min): Calmer and steadier; a good default most days.
* Momentum / Breakout: Quicker slope tracking during strong pushes; may over-react in ranges.
* Custom: Set your own values if you know exactly what you want.
What is F1 here?
F1 is the model’s next-bar fair value. Crosses of price versus F1 can hint at short-term momentum shifts or mean-reversion, especially when viewed with VWAP or the cone.
How this helps
* Gives a baseline path of where price may drift and a cone that shows normal wiggle room.
* Helps you tell routine noise (inside cone) from information (edges or breaks outside the cone).
* Keeps you aware of short-term bias via the trend slope and F1.
How to use (step by step)
1. Add to chart → choose a Preset (start with Smooth Intraday).
2. Set Horizon around 8–15 bars for intraday.
3. (Optional) Turn on VWAP alignment to color only when price agrees with the trend side of VWAP.
4. Watch where price sits relative to the cone and F1:
* Inside = normal noise.
* At edges = stretched.
* Outside = possible regime change.
5. Check the panel: if RMSE/MAPE spike, expect a wider cone; consider a smoother preset or a higher timeframe.
6. Tweak Alpha/Beta only if needed: faster for momentum, slower for chop.
7. Combine with your own plan for entries, exits, and risk.
Accuracy Panel — what it tells you
Preset & Horizon: Shows which preset you’re using and how many bars ahead the projection goes. Longer horizons mean more uncertainty.
RMSE (error in price units): A “typical miss” measured in the chart’s currency (e.g., ₹).
Lower = tighter fit and a usually narrower cone. Rising = conditions getting noisier; the cone will widen.
MAPE (error in %): The same idea as RMSE but in percent.
Good for comparing different symbols or timeframes. Sudden spikes often hint at a regime change.
Slope T: The model’s short-term trend reading.
Positive = gentle up-bias; negative = gentle down-bias; near zero = mostly flat/drifty.
How to read it at a glance
Calm & directional: RMSE/MAPE steady or falling + Slope T positive (or negative) → trends tend to respect the cone’s mid/upper (or mid/lower) area.
Choppy/uncertain: RMSE/MAPE climbing or jumping → expect more whipsaw; rely more on the cone edges and higher-TF context.
Flat tape: Slope T near zero → mean-revert behavior is common; treat cone edges as stretch zones rather than breakout zones.
Warm-up & tweaks
Warm-up: Right after adding the indicator, the panel may be blank for a short time while it gathers enough bars.
Too twitchy? Switch to Smooth Intraday or increase the Residual Window.
Too slow? Use Scalp/Fast or Momentum/Breakout to react quicker.
Timeframe tips
* 1–3 min: Scalp/Fast or Momentum/Breakout; horizon \~8–12.
* 5–15 min: Smooth Intraday; horizon \~12–15.
* 30–60 min+: Consider a larger residual window for a steadier cone.
FAQ
Q: Is this a strategy or an indicator?
A: It’s an indicator only. It does not place orders, TP/SL, or run backtests.
Q: Does it repaint?
A: The next-bar estimate (F1) and the cone are calculated using only information available at that time. The forward path is a projection drawn on the last bar and will naturally update as new bars arrive. Historical bars aren’t revised with future data.
Q: What is F1?
A: F1 is the indicator’s best guess for the next bar.
Price crossing above/below F1 can hint at short-term momentum shifts or mean-reversion.
Q: What do “Alpha” and “Beta” do?
A: Alpha controls how fast the indicator reacts to new prices
(higher = faster, twitchier). Beta controls how fast the slope updates (higher = quicker pivots, more flips in chop).
Q: Why does the cone width change?
A: It reflects recent forecast accuracy. When the market gets noisy, the cone widens. When the tape is calm, it narrows.
Q: What does the Accuracy Panel tell me?
A:
* Preset & Horizon you’re using.
* RMSE: typical forecast miss in price units.
* MAPE: typical forecast miss in percent.
* Slope T: short-term trend reading (up, down, or flat).
If RMSE/MAPE rise, expect a wider cone and more whipsaw.
Q: The panel shows “…” or looks empty. Why?
A: It needs a short warm-up to gather enough bars. This is normal after you add the indicator or change settings/timeframes.
Q: Which timeframe is best?
A:
* 1–3 min: Scalp/Fast or Momentum/Breakout, horizon \~8–12.
* 5–15 min: Smooth Intraday, horizon \~12–15.
Higher timeframes work too; consider a larger residual window for steadier cones.
Q: Which preset should I start with?
A: Start with Smooth Intraday. If the market is trending hard, try Momentum/Breakout.
For very quick tapes, use Scalp/Fast. Switch back if things get choppy.
Q: What does the VWAP option do?
A: It only changes colors (highlights when price agrees with the trend side of VWAP).
It does not add or remove signals.
Q: Are there alerts?
A: Yes—alerts for price crossing F1 (up/down). Use “Once per bar close” to reduce noise on fast charts.
Q: Can I use this on stocks, futures, crypto, or FX?
A: Yes. It works on any symbol/timeframe. You may want to adjust Horizon and the Residual Window based on volatility.
Q: Can I use it with Heikin Ashi or other non-standard bars?
A: You can, but remember you’re forecasting the synthetic series of those bars. For pure price behavior, use regular candles.
Q: The cone feels too wide/too narrow. What do I change?
A:
* Too wide: lower Alpha/Beta a bit or increase the Residual Window.
* Too narrow (misses moves): raise Alpha/Beta slightly or try Momentum/Breakout.
Q: Why do results change when I switch timeframe or symbol?
A: Different noise levels and trends. The accuracy stats reset per chart, so the cone adapts to each context.
Q: Any limits or gotchas?
A: Extremely large Horizon may hit TradingView’s line-object limits; reduce Horizon or turn
off extra visuals if needed. Big gaps or news spikes will widen errors—expect the cone to react.
Q: Can this predict exact future prices?
A: No. It provides a baseline path and context. Always combine with your own rules and risk management.

Hammer Candle Detector with ATR Wick ConditionThis script detects Hammer candlesticks on any timeframe chart.
Conditions for a valid Hammer:
1. Small body near the top of the candle range (≤30% of total range)
2. Lower shadow at least 2× the body
3. Small or no upper shadow (≤30% of body)
4. Lower wick height must be greater than half of ATR(14)
A triangle marker is plotted below each candle that meets these conditions.
Session AnchorsDescription
This indicator highlights the four main global trading sessions — London, New York AM, New York PM, and Asia — as color-coded boxes on the chart. Each session is defined by fixed start/end times (New York time) and dynamically updates with the evolving high and low during that interval. This provides a clear view of how volatility and structure shift as trading activity passes from one region to another.
How to use
• Works on any timeframe.
• Toggle sessions on/off based on your trading hours.
• Observe price behavior as one session closes and another opens.
• Use session boxes as context for liquidity, volatility, and structure analysis.
Originality
This script delivers a clean, customizable visualization of global market hours and session ranges, avoiding extra overlays so traders can isolate session-based behavior without distraction.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This indicator does not generate signals. It provides a structural mapping of global sessions for contextual analysis only.
MAxRSI Signals [KedArc Quant]Description:
MAxRSI Indicator Marks LONG/SHORT signals from a Moving Average crossover and (optionally) confirms them with RSI. Includes repaint-safe confirmation, optional higher-timeframe (HTF) smoothing, bar coloring, and alert conditions.
Why combine MA + RSI
* The MA crossover is the primary trend signal (fast trend vs slow trend).
* RSI is a gate, not a second, separate signal. A crossover only becomes a trade signal if momentum agrees (e.g., RSI ≥ level for LONG, ≤ level for SHORT). This reduces weak crosses in ranging markets.
* The parts are integrated in one rule: *Crossover AND RSI condition (if enabled)* → plot signal/alert. No duplicated outputs or unrelated indicators.
How it works (logic)
* MA types: SMA / EMA / WMA / HMA (HMA is built via WMA of `len/2` and `len`, then WMA with `sqrt(len)`).
* Signals:
* LONG when *Fast MA crosses above Slow MA* and (if enabled) *RSI ≥ Long Min*.
* SHORT when *Fast MA crosses below Slow MA* and (if enabled) *RSI ≤ Short Max*.
* Repaint-safe (optional): confirms crosses on closed bars to avoid intrabar repaint.
* HTF (optional): computes MA/RSI on a higher timeframe to smooth noise on lower charts.
* Alerts: crossover alerts + state-flip (bull↔bear) alerts.
How to use (step-by-step)
1. Add to chart. Set MA Type, Fast and Slow (keep Fast < Slow).
2. Turn Use RSI Filter ON for confirmation (default: RSI 14 with 50/50 levels).
3. (Optional) Turn Repaint-Safe ON for close-confirmed signals.
4. (Optional) Turn HTF ON (e.g., 60 = 1h) for smoother signals on low TFs.
5. Enable alerts: pick “MAxRSI Long/Short” or “Bullish/Bearish State”.
Timeframe guidance
* Intraday (1–15m): EMA 9–20 fast vs EMA 50 slow, RSI filter at 50/50.
* Swing (1h–D): EMA 20 fast vs EMA 200 slow, RSI 50/50 (55/45 for stricter).
What makes it original
* Repaint-safe cross confirmation (previous-bar check) for reliable signals/alerts.
* HTF gating (doesn’t compute both branches) for speed and clarity.
* Warning-free MA helper (precomputes SMA/EMA/WMA/HMA each bar), HMA built from built-ins only.
* State-flip alerts and optional RSI overlay on price pane.
Built-ins used
`ta.sma`, `ta.ema`, `ta.wma`, (HMA built from these), `ta.rsi`, `ta.crossover`, `ta.crossunder`, `request.security`, `plot`, `plotshape`, `barcolor`, `alertcondition`, `input.*`, `math.*`.

Intraday Buy/Sell/Average Zones by Chaitu50cIntraday Buy/Sell/Average Zones by chaitu50c
Timeframe:
Tested on the 5-minute chart.
Recommended timeframe: 5-minute
What it does
This indicator marks intraday Buy (green) and Sell (red) zones made by strong close-confirmed breakouts. These zones act as support/resistance. If price later closes through a zone, the zone changes color from that bar forward (support ↔ resistance). It can flip more than once.
How zones form
Single breakout: an opposite-type candle closes beyond the previous candle’s high/low.
Double breakout: a base candle, then two opposite-type candles, and the second one closes beyond the base high/low.
Zone size
Buy zone: from the combo lowest low up to the nearest open/close of the combo.
Sell zone: from the combo highest high down to the nearest open/close of the combo.
Color shift (optional)
If price closes through a zone, it flips color at that bar and behaves as the other side (support ↔ resistance). Flips can happen again later.
Overlap control
When a new zone overlaps an existing same-color zone in the same session, choose:
Merge (combine), or
Suppress (ignore the new one).
Flipped zones use their current color for this.
Right edge & session
All zones extend to the right (your offset). Detection is limited to your chosen session, and you can show only the last N sessions.
---
How to trade (simple)
A) Initial breakout trade
When a new zone forms, that breakout itself can be a trade idea in the breakout direction, The stoploss will be the zone.
B) Zone breakout trade (flip)
If price later closes out of a zone and it changes color, that breakout is another trade opportunity in the new direction.
C) Retrace & average trade
When price retests a zone, wait for a confirmation candle in the zone’s favor
— bullish close for a green zone, bearish close for a red zone — then average entries inside/near the zone.
Place stops just beyond the opposite edge of the zone.
If the zone flips color, stop averaging; bias changed.

Key settings
Breakout type: Single and/or Double
Confirm on Close: strict mode (no intrabar preview) or allow intrabar preview that auto-removes if fail
Color Shift on Breaks: on/off
Same-Type Overlap: Merge/Suppress

VWAP Trend Strategy (Intraday) [KedarArc Quant]Description:
An intraday strategy that anchors to VWAP and only trades when a local EMA trend gate and a volume participation gate are both open. It offers two entry templates—Cross and Cross-and-Retest—with an optional Momentum Exception for impulsive moves. Exits combine a TrendBreak (structure flips) with an ATR emergency stop (risk cap).
Updates will be published under this script.
Why this merits a new script
This is not a simple “VWAP + EMA + ATR” overlay. The components are sequenced as gates and branches that *change the trade set* in ways a visual mashup cannot:
1. Trend Gate first (EMA fast vs. slow on the entry timeframe)
Counter-trend VWAP crosses are suppressed. Many VWAP scripts fire on every cross; here, no entry logic even evaluates unless the trend gate is open.
2. Participation Gate second (Volume SMA × multiplier)
This gate filters thin liquidity moves around VWAP. Without it, the same visuals would produce materially more false triggers.
3. Branching entries with structure awareness
* Cross: Immediate VWAP cross in the trend direction.
* Cross-and-Retest: Requires a revisit to VWAP vicinity within a lookback window (recent low near VWAP for longs; recent high for shorts). This explicitly removes first-touch fakeouts that a plain cross takes.
* Momentum Exception (optional): A quantified body% + volume condition can bypass the retest when flow is impulsive—intentional risk-timing, not “just another indicator.”
4. Dual exits that reference both anchor and structure
* TrendBreak: Close only when price loses VWAP and EMA alignment flips.
* ATR stop: Placed at entry to cap tail risk.
These exits complement the entry structure rather than being generic stop/target add-ons.
What it does
* Trades the session’s fair value anchor (VWAP), but only with local-trend agreement (EMA fast vs. slow) and sufficient participation (volume filter).
* Lets you pick Cross or Cross-and-Retest entries; optionally allow a fast Momentum Exception when candles expand with volume.
* Manages positions with a structure exit (TrendBreak) and an emergency ATR stop from entry.
How it works (concepts & calculations)
* VWAP (session anchor):
Standard VWAP of the active session; entries reference the cross and the retest proximity to VWAP.
* Trend gate:
Long context only if `EMA(fast) > EMA(slow)`; short only if `EMA(fast) < EMA(slow)`.
A *gate*, not a trigger—entries aren’t considered unless this is true.
* Participation (volume) gate:
Require `volume > SMA(volume, volLen) × volMult`.
Screens out low-participation wiggles around VWAP.
Entries:
* Cross: Price crosses VWAP in the trend direction while volume gate is open.
* Cross-and-Retest: After crossing, price revisits VWAP vicinity within `lookback` (recent *low near VWAP* for longs; recent *high near VWAP* for shorts).
* Momentum Exception (optional): If body% (|close−open| / range) and volume exceed thresholds, enter without waiting for the retest.
Exits:
* TrendBreak (structure):
* Longs close when `price < VWAP` and `EMA(fast) < EMA(slow)` (mirror for shorts).
* ATR stop (risk):
* From entry: `stop = entry ± ATR(atrLen) × atrMult`.
How to use it ?
1. Select market & timeframe: Intraday on liquid symbols (equities, futures, crypto).
2. Pick entry mode:
* Start with Cross-and-Retest for fewer, more selective signals.
* Enable Momentum Exception if strong moves leave without retesting.
3. Tune guards:
* Raise `volMult` to ignore thin periods; lower it for more activity.
* Adjust `lookback` if retests come late/early on your symbol.
4. Risk:
* `atrLen` and `atrMult` set the emergency stop distance.
5. Read results per session: Optional panel (if enabled) summarizes Net-R, Win%, and PF for today’s session to evaluate
behavior regime by regime.

Gann Fan Strategy [KedarArc Quant]Description
A single-concept, rule-based strategy that trades around a programmatic Gann Fan.
It anchors to a swing (or a manual point), builds 1×1 and related fan lines numerically, and triggers entries when price interacts with the 1×1 (breakout or bounce). Management is done entirely with the fan structure (next/previous line) plus optional ATR trailing.
What TV indicators are used
* Pivots: `ta.pivothigh/ta.pivotlow` to confirm swing highs/lows for anchor selection.
* ATR: `ta.atr` only to scale the 1×1 slope (optional) and for an optional trailing stop.
* EMA: `ta.ema` as a trend filter (e.g., only long above the EMA, short below).
No RSI/MACD/Stoch/Heikin/etc. The logic is one coherent framework: Gann price–time geometry, with ATR as a scale and EMA as a risk filter.
How it works
1. Anchor
* Auto: chooses the most recent *confirmed* pivot (you control Left/Right).
* Manual: set a price and bar index and the fan will hold that point (no re-anchoring).
* Optional Re-anchor when a newer pivot confirms.
2. 1×1 Slope (numeric, not cosmetic)
* ATR mode: `1×1 = ATR(Length) × Multiplier` (adapts to volatility).
* Fixed mode: `ticks per bar` (constant slope).
Because slope is numeric, it doesn’t change with chart zoom, unlike the drawing tool.
3. Fan Lines
Builds classic ratios around the 1×1: 1/8, 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 1/1, 2/1, 3/1, 4/1, 8/1.
4. Signals
* Breakout: cross of price over/under the 1×1 in the EMA-aligned direction.
* Bounce (optional): touch + reversal across the 1×1 to reduce whipsaw.
5. Exits & Risk
* Take-profit at the next fan line; Stop at the previous fan line.
* If a level is missing (right after re-anchor), a fallback Risk-Reward (RR) is used.
* Optional ATR trailing stop.
Why this is unique
* True numeric fan: The 1×1 slope is calculated from ATR or fixed ticks—not from screen geometry—so it is scale-invariant and reproducible across users/timeframes.
* Deterministic anchor logic: Uses confirmed pivots (with your L/R settings). No look-ahead; anchors update only when the right bars complete.
* Fan-native trade management: Both entries and exits come from the fan structure itself (with a minimal ATR/EMA assist), keeping the method pure.
* Two entry archetypes: Breakout for momentum days; Bounce for range days—switchable without changing the core model.
* Manual mode: Lock a session’s bias by anchoring to a chosen swing (e.g., day’s first major low/high) and keep the fan constant all day.
Inputs (quick guide)
* Auto Anchor (Left/Right): pivot sensitivity. Higher values = fewer, stronger anchors.
* Re-anchor: refresh to newer pivots as they confirm.
* Manual Anchor Price / Bar Index: fixes the fan (turn Auto off).
* Scale 1×1 by ATR: on = adaptive; off = use ticks per bar.
* ATR Length / ATR Multiplier: controls adaptive slope; start around 14 / 0.25–0.35.
* Ticks per bar: exact fixed slope (match a hand-drawn fan by computing slope ÷ mintick).
* EMA Trend Filter: e.g., 50–100; trades only in EMA direction.
* Use Bounce: require touch + reverse across 1×1 (helps in chop).
* TP/SL at fan lines; Fallback RR for missing levels; ATR Trailing Stop optional.
* Transparency/Plot EMA: visual preferences.
Tips
* Range days: larger pivots (L/R 8–12), Bounce ON, ATR Multiplier \~0.30–0.40, EMA 100.
* Trend days: L/R 5–6, Breakout, Multiplier \~0.20–0.30, EMA 50, ATR trail 1.0–1.5.
* Match the TV Gann Fan drawing: turn ATR scale OFF, set ticks per bar = `(Δprice between anchor and 1×1 target) / (bars) / mintick`.
Repainting & testing notes
* Pivots require Right bars to confirm; anchors are set after confirmation (no look-ahead).
* Signals use the current bar close with TradingView strategy mechanics; real-time vs. bar-close can differ slightly, as with any strategy.
* Re-anchoring legitimately moves the structure when new pivots confirm—by design.

FlowScope [Hapharmonic]FlowScope: Uncover the Market's True Intent 🔬
Ever wished you could look inside the candles and see where the real action is happening? FlowScope is your microscope for the market's flow, designed to give you a powerful edge by revealing the volume distribution that price action alone can't show you.
Instead of just looking at the open, high, low, and close, FlowScope lets you dive deeper into the market's auction process. It groups candles together and builds a detailed Volume Profile for that period, showing you exactly where the trading happened and revealing the story behind the price action.
Let's explore how you can use it to gain a powerful new edge.
🧐 Core Concept: How It Works
At its heart, FlowScope does three key things:
It Groups Candles: You decide how many candles to group together. For example, setting " Group Candles " to 4 on a 5-minute chart effectively gives you a detailed 20-minute candle and profile. This helps you see the bigger picture and filter out market noise.
It Builds a Volume Profile: For each group, FlowScope analyzes the volume at every single price level. It then displays this as a horizontal histogram (we call this a "footprint" or profile). Longer bars mean more volume was traded at that price, indicating a "fair" price or an area of acceptance. Shorter bars mean price moved through quickly, indicating rejection.
It Creates a Custom "Grouped Candle": To summarize the group's overall price action, FlowScope draws a single, custom candle representing the entire group's:
Open: The open of the first candle in the group.
High: The absolute highest price reached within the group.
Low: The absolute lowest price reached within the group.
Close: The close of the last candle in the group.
This gives you a crystal-clear view of the group's net result, free from the back-and-forth noise of the individual candles inside it.
Below are some of the stunning preset color palettes you can choose from to customize your view:
🚀 How to Use: Practical Applications
FlowScope isn't just for looking pretty; it's a powerful analysis tool. Here are a few ways to integrate it into your trading:
Identify High-Volume Nodes (HVNs): Look for the longest bars in the profile. These are price levels where the market spent the most time and traded the most volume. HVNs often act as powerful "magnets" for price, becoming key areas of support and resistance.
Spot Low-Volume Nodes (LVNs): These are areas with very short bars or gaps in the profile. They represent price levels that the market moved through quickly and inefficiently. If price returns to an LVN, it's likely to move through it quickly again.
Analyze the Summary Box: This is where the real magic happens! ✨
Total Volume (Σ): The total volume for the entire group.
Buy (B) vs. Sell (S) Volume: FlowScope analyzes the lower timeframe action to estimate the buying and selling pressure that made up the total volume. Is a big red candle mostly aggressive selling, or was it just a lack of buyers? The B/S data gives you clues. A high-volume candle with nearly 50/50 buy/sell pressure might indicate absorption or a potential reversal.
Use the Grouped Candle for Clarity: Is the market in a clear uptrend, or is it just choppy? The grouped candle can give you a much clearer signal. A series of strong, green grouped candles shows much more conviction than a mix of small green and red candles.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
This is where you can truly make FlowScope your own. Let's walk through each setting.
Profile Settings
Group Candles: The number of standard chart candles you want to combine into a single FlowScope profile. A setting of 1 will analyze every single bar. A higher number gives you a broader market view. When Group Candles is set to 5, the data from the 5 individual candles are combined, and the volume is calculated accordingly.
Max Profile Boxes: This setting is more than just a number; it's a smart limit that ensures your profiles are always readable and relevant to the current market conditions.
Adaptive Sizing (The Ideal Goal): FlowScope first tries to create the perfect profile by making each volume box's height proportional to the current market volatility. It calculates an "ideal" box height based on the Average True Range ( ATR / 10 ). This is powerful because it automatically adapts: you get smaller, more detailed boxes in quiet, low-volatility markets, and larger, clearer boxes in volatile, fast-moving markets.
The Safety Cap (Your Setting): However, what if you group several candles during a massive price move? The price range could be huge! If we only used the small, ATR-based box height, you might end up with hundreds of tiny, unreadable boxes. This is where your Max Profile Boxes setting (defaulting to 50) comes in. It acts as a maximum detail cap . If the adaptive, volatility-based calculation determines that it would need more boxes than your setting (e.g., more than 50), the indicator will override it. It will then simply divide the entire price range of the group into exactly the number of boxes you specified (e.g., 50).
In short: You are setting the maximum allowable detail. FlowScope intelligently adapts the profile's granularity below that limit based on market volatility, ensuring you always get a clear and meaningful picture.
Style
Show Profile BG: A simple toggle to show or hide the faint background color behind the volume bars. Turning it off can create a cleaner look.
Color Mode: This dropdown controls how the volume profile text is colored.
Custom Gradient: This mode uses the three custom colors you select in the "Profile Colors" section to create a beautiful gradient across the profile.
Candle Color: This mode colors the profile based on whether the grouped candle was bullish (green) or bearish (red). The color will be a gradient, with the most intense color applied to the box with the highest volume; the colors of the other boxes will fade out from that point. It's a great way to see the profile's "mood" at a glance.
Profile Colors 🎨
Use Preset Palette: This is the master switch!
If checked: You can choose from 10 stunning, pre-designed color palettes from the Palette dropdown. The custom color pickers below will be disabled.
If unchecked (Default): The Palette dropdown will be disabled, and you can now choose your own three colors for the gradient.
Palette: (Only active when "Use Preset Palette" is checked) . Choose from 10 luxurious, eye-catching color schemes like "Solar Flare" or "Deep Space" to instantly change the look and feel of your chart.
Low Price / Mid Price / High Price: (Only active when "Use Preset Palette" is unchecked) . These three color pickers allow you to design your own unique gradient for the Custom Gradient color mode.
Candle Display
These settings control the custom "Grouped Candle" that summarizes the profile. When using the "Show Custom Candle" feature, you should change the chart's candlestick display to Bars for a cleaner view.
Show Custom Candle: This is the main toggle. When you check this box, the original chart candles will be hidden, and your custom FlowScope candle will be displayed instead. This custom candle is intentionally small to ensure it does not visually overlap with the volume profile boxes.
Show Body: (Only active when "Show Custom Candle" is checked) . Toggles the visibility of the candle's body.
Wick Width & Body Width: (Only active when "Show Custom Candle" is checked) . These sliders let you control the thickness of the wick and body lines to match your personal style.
Up Color / Down Color: (Only active when "Show Custom Candle" is checked) . Choose the colors for your bullish and bearish custom candles.
Experiment with the settings, find a style that works for you, and start seeing the market in a whole new light.
Happy trading! 📈😊
