NY Opening Range [LuckyAlgo]
This custom ORM (Opening Range Move) indicator is designed as a tool for traders who focus not just on where a range is, but on the magnitude of the expansion following the initial morning volatility.
Here is a summary of the indicator and how it differentiates itself from standard Opening Range Breakout (ORB) tools.
Indicator Summary
The script captures the high and low of the market during the first 30 minutes of the NY session (09:30–10:00 AM EST). Once this range is set, it tracks the "Expansion Move" - the point distance from the range's boundary to the current session's high or low. It visualizes this through color-coded zones, dynamic labels at the session extremes, and a statistical table that benchmarks today's volatility against the recent past.
What specific questions does this indicator answer?
While most indicators tell you "the range is broken," this indicator answers quantitative questions vital for trade management:
1. "How far has the market stretched relative to the breakout?"
The indicator provides the exact point distance (+/-) from the range high/low. This helps you determine if the move is just beginning or if it has already extended significantly.
2. "Is the current move 'normal' or an outlier?"
By using the Stats Table, you can see if the current 40-point move on NQ is typical or if the average move over the last 10 days is actually 80 points. This prevents you from "fading" a move that still has average room to grow, or taking a "pro-trend" trade when the market is already exhausted.
3. "Where is the session extreme located?"
The inclusion of the dashed High of Day (HOD) and Low of Day (LOD) lines with attached labels tells you exactly where the "Move" calculation is peaking. If the HOD line hasn't moved for two hours, you know the bullish expansion has stalled.
4. "When is the data no longer relevant?"
Because of the 17:00 EST reset logic, the indicator answers the "end of day" question for futures traders. It stops measuring at the settlement/close of the electronic session, ensuring your charts are clean for the overnight (Globex) session or ready for the next morning.
Technical Advantage
Most scripts use a single "point in time" to reset. This script uses a Trading Window logic, which is much more robust. If a bar is missing at exactly 17:00 due to low volume or a data glitch, the indicator won't "break" or keep drawing old lines - it understands the entire window of time it is allowed to exist in.

Ichift Pro V4.0 - Full Alert📘 SETUP GUIDE & CHEAT SHEET - ICHIFT PRO V4.0
To maximize the effectiveness of the indicator, it is essential to understand these key "tuning knobs":
1. Core Ichimoku Parameters
• Tenkan-sen (9) / Kijun-sen (26): The primary duo for Cross signals. The 9 and 26 settings are standard and optimized for most financial markets.
• Senkou Span B (52) / Displacement (26): These determine the thickness and position of the Kumo Cloud—the ultimate "barrier" for long-term trend identification.
2. Filter & Order Management (Crucial)
• Base Price Distance (priceDiff - 3.0): The unit used to calculate TP/SL.
• Example: For Gold (XAUUSD), 3.0 equals 30 pips. Increase this value if you aim for longer-term targets.
• TP Factor (1.0) & SL Factor (6.0): * Formula: Entry Price +/- (Base Distance x Factor).
• With default settings (1.0 and 6.0), the strategy focuses on quick take-profits while using a wider stop-loss to avoid "Stop Hunts" (wick spikes).
• Reset Timer (3h): If a trade hasn't hit TP or SL after 3 hours, the indicator resets to clear old signals. This is highly effective in avoiding capital tie-ups during flat (sideways) markets.
3. Higher Timeframe (HTF) Trend Filter
• HTF Filter (e.g., 15m): * If trading on the 1m chart: Use a 5m or 15m filter.
• If trading on the 5m chart: Use a 15m or 1h filter.
• The Principle: Always align your trades with a larger timeframe to ensure you are "standing on the shoulders of giants."
💡 PRO TRADING TIPS:
1. Color Synergy: Only enter a trade when the signal label matches the color of the future Kumo Cloud (Green Cloud + BUY signal = High win probability).
2. Risk Management: Despite clear TP/SL levels, always adhere to the 1-2% risk-per-trade rule.
3. Customization: For low-volatility Forex pairs, you can reduce the priceDiff to 1.0 - 2.0 to generate tighter, more frequent labels.

Stochastic Extreme Oscillator [MatrixQuantLabs]Stochastic Extreme Oscillator is an enhanced stochastic-based oscillator designed to highlight market extremes, momentum shifts, and potential reversal zones with improved visual clarity and signal filtering.
This indicator builds upon the classic Stochastic Oscillator by focusing on extreme zone behavior, peak & trough signals, and optional divergence detection, making it suitable for both discretionary and systematic traders.
Key Features
Extreme Zone Visualization
• Multi-level overbought (80–100) and oversold (0–20) zones with adaptive color intensity help assess the strength and risk level of market extremes at a glance.
Momentum-Aware Coloring
• The %D line dynamically changes color based on its position relative to the zero line, providing an intuitive view of bullish, neutral, and bearish momentum states.
Peak & Trough Signals
• Optional bullish and bearish signals are triggered only when %K / %D cross occurs inside extreme zones, helping filter out low-quality signals in mid-range conditions.
Regular Divergence Detection
• Built-in bullish and bearish divergence detection based on pivot structure, allowing early identification of potential trend reversals.
Clean & Focused Design
• The indicator emphasizes the %D line as the primary signal source, while %K is used internally for logic, keeping the chart uncluttered and easy to read.
Customization
• Adjustable %K / %D lengths and smoothing
• Toggle peak & trough signals on/off
• Optional divergence detection with configurable pivot sensitivity
• Designed to work across different markets and timeframes
Usage Notes
• Best used as a momentum and extreme-condition oscillator, not as a standalone trading system
• Signals are most effective when combined with trend context, price structure, or higher-timeframe analysis
• Divergence signals may appear with delay due to pivot confirmation logic

Volatility Regimes | GainzAlgo📊 OVERVIEW:
=========
This is a comprehensive ATR-based trading system designed for professional
traders who need advanced volatility analysis, precise trade management, and
intelligent market regime detection. The indicator combines multiple proven
volatility concepts into one powerful, customizable tool.
⭐ WHY THIS SYSTEM IS UNIQUE AND WORTHY OF PUBLICATION:
====================================================
This is not simply a collection of ATR-based indicators placed together.
It represents a unified volatility analysis framework where each component
is specifically designed to work in concert with the others, creating a
complete trading workflow that cannot be replicated by using multiple
separate indicators.
🔗 SYNERGISTIC INTEGRATION - How Components Work Together:
🧠 1. CONTEXT-AWARE ANALYSIS
The Volatility Regime Detection acts as the "brain" of the system,
classifying market conditions into 4 distinct phases. Every other
component then adapts its behavior based on this regime classification:
- ATR Bands expand/contract with regime changes
- Stop Loss distances automatically adjust (tighter in compression,
wider in high volatility)
- Take Profit targets scale proportionally to current regime
- Signal sensitivity filters itself based on market phase
📐 2. UNIFIED VOLATILITY FOUNDATION
All calculations share a single ATR baseline calculation, ensuring
internal consistency across the entire system. When ATR changes, every
element updates in perfect synchronization:
- Bands recalculate from the same ATR value
- Risk management levels use the same volatility measurement
- Regime classification and signals reference identical data
🛡️ 3. INTEGRATED RISK MANAGEMENT
The system doesn't just show WHERE to enter - it calculates HOW MUCH
to risk:
- Dynamic Stop Loss adapts to current ATR automatically
- Position Size Calculator uses the dynamic stop to compute exact quantities
- Take Profit levels scale proportionally, maintaining optimal risk:reward
✅ 4. TWO-STAGE SIGNAL CONFIRMATION
The alert system creates a logical progression:
Step 1: Volatility Breakout → Market energy is building
Step 2: Trend Confirmation → Direction confirmed with volatility support
This prevents false breakouts by requiring both volatility AND direction.
🏦 5. PROFESSIONAL WORKFLOW INTEGRATION
The system mirrors how institutional traders analyze markets:
Phase 1: Assess regime → What's the market doing?
Phase 2: Identify setup → Where's the opportunity?
Phase 3: Calculate risk → What's my exposure?
Phase 4: Set targets → Where do I take profit?
Phase 5: Monitor regime → When do conditions change?
❌ WHY NOT USE SEPARATE INDICATORS?
- Separate ATR Bands: Don't know about regime changes, remain static
- Separate Regime Indicator: Doesn't automatically adjust stop/targets
- Separate Position Calculator: Doesn't know your actual ATR-based stop
- Manual Integration: Requires constant mental calculation and cross-referencing
🧮 DETAILED CALCULATION METHODOLOGY:
=================================
📏 ATR (AVERAGE TRUE RANGE) CALCULATION:
- True Range = Maximum of:
1. Current High - Current Low
2. Absolute value of (Current High - Previous Close)
3. Absolute value of (Current Low - Previous Close)
- ATR = Simple Moving Average of True Range over specified period (default: 14)
📊 DYNAMIC ATR BANDS:
- Upper Band = Current Close + (ATR × Band Multiplier)
- Lower Band = Current Close - (ATR × Band Multiplier)
- Band 1: 1.0× ATR (closest support/resistance)
- Band 2: 2.0× ATR (intermediate zone)
- Band 3: 3.0× ATR (extended zone)
🌡️ VOLATILITY REGIME CLASSIFICATION:
Step 1: Calculate ATR Baseline
- Baseline ATR = SMA or EMA of ATR over long period (default: 50 bars)
- This represents "normal" volatility for the instrument
Step 2: Calculate ATR Ratio
- ATR Ratio = Current ATR ÷ Baseline ATR
- Example: If current ATR = 70 and baseline = 50, ratio = 1.40
Step 3: Classify Regime Based on Ratio
- COMPRESSION: Ratio < 0.70 (ATR is 30% below normal)
Market consolidating, volatility contracting, energy building
- EXPANSION: Ratio between 1.15 and 1.40 (ATR is 15-40% above normal)
Volatility breaking out, early phase of directional movement
- HIGH VOLATILITY: Ratio > 1.40 (ATR is 40%+ above normal)
Strong sustained trend with high participation
- EXHAUSTION: ATR declining after high volatility period
Requires: Previous high ratio + declining ATR over X bars (default: 5)
Trend maturity, potential reversal or consolidation approaching
🛑 DYNAMIC STOP LOSS CALCULATION:
- For Long Positions: Stop Loss = Entry Price - (ATR × SL Multiplier)
- For Short Positions: Stop Loss = Entry Price + (ATR × SL Multiplier)
- Default Multiplier: 2.0× ATR
- Adjusts automatically: Wider in high volatility, tighter in compression
🎯 TAKE PROFIT LEVELS:
- TP1 = Entry Price ± (ATR × TP1 Multiplier)
- TP2 = Entry Price ± (ATR × TP2 Multiplier)
- TP3 = Entry Price ± (ATR × TP3 Multiplier)
- Direction (+ or -) depends on trade direction
📦 POSITION SIZE CALCULATION:
Formula: Position Size = Account Risk Amount ÷ Stop Loss Distance
Step-by-step:
1. Risk Amount = Account Size × (Risk Percentage ÷ 100)
2. Stop Distance = |Entry Price - Stop Loss Price|
3. Position Size = Risk Amount ÷ Stop Distance
📈 ATR PERCENTILE RANKING:
- >80% = Extremely high volatility
- 20-80% = Normal volatility range
- <20% = Extremely low volatility
🌀 VOLATILITY CONTRACTION PATTERN:
Detects extended low-volatility periods indicating imminent breakout.
🧭 TREND DETECTION SIGNALS:
Bullish: Price > MA AND Current ATR > ATR MA
Bearish: Price < MA AND Current ATR > ATR MA
⚡ VOLATILITY BREAKOUT SIGNALS:
Triggered when ATR exceeds its moving average by a defined threshold.

Auction Session Ranges (AMT Edition) [ Alerts] Auction Session Ranges (AMT Edition)
► Overview
The Session Ranges ( AMT Edition) is a session-based market structure and auction analysis tool designed to visually reveal acceptance, rejection, imbalance, and continuation across the Asia, London, and New York CME trading sessions.
Unlike typical indicators, this script is grounded in Auction Market Theory (AMT) and session-based structure, focusing on how price behaves at session extremes rather than relying on lagging calculations, oscillators, or predictive algorithms. Its purpose is to highlight areas where the market has earned the right to be traded, providing traders with a clear, rules-based framework for high-probability directional trades.
Important for backtesting: To properly backtest session extremes, Interaction Lines, and Closest Opposite Extreme Lines, you must use TradingView’s replay mode, as real-time bar-by-bar progression is required to observe how the market interacts with session extremes over time.
► Key Innovations
This is not a conventional session high/low indicator. Its originality comes from several unique design elements:
Differentiates interaction from true acceptance: Price touching an extreme does not automatically indicate directional intent.
Separates directional confirmation from range-bound indecision: Only confirmed crossings beyond the Interaction Line signal actionable bias.
Tracks failed auctions and partial acceptance: No volume profile or order book data required.
Visual, rule-based trade permission: Signals are objective, minimizing subjective interpretation.
Interaction & Closest Opposite Extreme Lines: Together, these lines map how far an auction progresses after an extreme is tested, highlighting continuation, partial acceptance, or failed auctions.
► Core Concepts Explained
1. Session Highs & Lows (Solid Lines)
Plotted continuously for each CME session (Asia, London, New York).
Represent the current auction boundaries for that session.
2. True Interaction Lines (Thick Dotted Lines)
Drawn when price touches or breaks a session extreme:
Touching session high → dotted line at the low of that candle
Touching session low → dotted line at the high of that candle
Auction context:
Touching alone ≠ acceptance
Acceptance occurs only when price moves beyond the Interaction Line and holds
Trading principle:
Price has not crossed → no directional bias → do not trade
Price crosses and holds → directional bias established
3. Acceptance vs Rejection
Accepted direction: Price crosses and holds beyond the Interaction Line
Rejected direction: Price crosses the line but immediately reverses
Neutral / No-Trade: Price trapped between extreme and Interaction Line
Important: Acceptance is conditional and dynamic. Each time price crosses back over the Interaction Line, acceptance is lost.
4. New Extremes = Continuation
Once an Interaction Line is crossed, each new session extreme in that direction reinforces the trend.
Traders should only look for continuation setups along the established directional bias.
AMT interpretation:
Repeated new extremes → directional imbalance
Failure to make new extremes → potential balance or rotation
5. Closest Opposite Extreme Lines (Thin Dotted Lines)
After acceptance, the script tracks price progress toward the opposite session extreme.
Plotted only if price reaches a user-defined percentage of the session range.
Helps identify:
Full acceptance (price reaches opposite extreme)
Partial acceptance (price stalls)
Failed auctions (price cannot progress meaningfully)
Trading guidance once Closest Lines appear:
Partial acceptance: Price stalls near the Closest Line but does not fully reach the opposite extreme → bias remains valid, but the move may be weakening; consider scaling out or tightening stops.
Full acceptance: Price reaches the opposite extreme → directional auction fully confirmed; bias continues, but expect potential rotation or balance afterward.
Failed auction (cannot progress meaningfully): Price reverses before reaching the Closest Line → signals exhaustion; avoid chasing the move and treat as potential trend failure.
Note: Only relevant after Interaction Line is crossed; if price never crosses the Interaction Line, Closest Lines have no trading significance.
► Step-by-Step Usage
Wait for a session extreme
Let price interact with the session high or low.
Observe the Interaction Line
No cross → do not trade
Cross and hold → directional bias established
Trade in the direction of new extremes only
Ignore counter-trend trades unless the Interaction Line is lost
Manage risk using structure
Interaction Line acts as a dynamic invalidation level
Use Closest Lines for context
Partial acceptance → bias valid, watch for weakening
Full acceptance → bias strong, continuation likely
Failed attempt → potential exhaustion, do not chase
Useful for trade management, scaling, and expectation setting
► Price Retests & Pullbacks
Scenario:
Price crosses above the Interaction Line (e.g., from a low interaction).
Over the next 3–4 15-minute bars, price dips back toward the Interaction Line, with wicks touching it but no decisive close below.
Interpretation:
Initial Acceptance Confirmed: Bias remains valid while price holds above/below the line.
Temporary Pullback / Retest: Market is re-evaluating the auction; testing participant agreement.
Wicks Touching the Line: Partial probing or liquidity sweep; market still respects original acceptance.
Trading Implication:
Continuation bias remains intact.
Pullbacks near the Interaction Line offer lower-risk entries.
Decisive close below → acceptance lost, signaling trend failure or invalidation.
Market Psychology:
Healthy auction behavior: extreme tested → acceptance confirmed → boundary retested for liquidity → continuation.
Failure to hold above signals weak acceptance or exhaustion.
✅ Key Takeaways:
Holding above Interaction Line → bias intact, pullback = opportunity
Closing below Interaction Line → acceptance lost, bias invalidated
Wicks touching only → normal retest, still valid
► No-Trade Conditions
Avoid trading when:
Price never crosses the Interaction Line
Price remains trapped between the extreme and the Interaction Line
Market rotates without forming new extremes
These indicate balance, not directional opportunity.
► Alerts
Optional alerts trigger when price crosses an Interaction Line for:
Asia session
London session
New York session
Alerts signal possible acceptance, not automatic trade entries.
► Who This Script Is For
Best suited for traders who:
Trade session structure in futures, indices, or FX
Follow Auction Market Theory principles
Prefer objective, rules-based confirmation
Want fewer but higher-quality trade opportunities
Not intended for:
Indicator stacking
Predictive trading
High-frequency scalping without structure
► Final Notes
This script does not tell you when to buy or sell.
It shows where the market has earned the right to be traded.
Use it as a decision filter, not a prediction engine.
CME Chrono-Behavior ForecastChrono-Behavior Forecast Indicator
See the market before it moves.
The Chrono-Behavior Forecast Indicator is the culmination of over two decades of intensive research into the hidden mechanics of market movement.

• Works on any intraday timeframe and any asset class (stocks, futures, crypto, forex) • Displays predictive intelligence as an overlay on your chart
Key Features:
• Forward-Looking — See predicted market forces before they manifest
• Universal Application — Apply to any market you trade
• Non-Repainting — The forecast line doesn't change after it's drawn
How It Works:
Market movements aren't random - they're driven by the energy of global exchanges. By mapping "behavioral footprints" against time, this indicator predicts market impacts and reversals well before the markets move.
This specific indicator is for the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME). Indicators are available for other exchanges.

Monthly LevelsMonthly Levels: Untouched Monthly Close Sequence Indicator
Master the bigger picture in trading with Monthly Levels, a sophisticated TradingView indicator engineered to reveal institutional-grade monthly support and resistance zones based on untouched close sequences. Ideal for position traders, long-term investors, and anyone analyzing major market cycles, this tool highlights deep liquidity pools where price often experiences powerful reactions—think trend reversals, explosive breakouts, or multi-month turning points.
Key Features:
Precision Monthly Level Detection : Intelligently scans and plots monthly support and resistance levels from historical monthly close prices, focusing exclusively on untouched sequences to deliver the highest-probability zones.
First-Touch Optimization : Levels are prominently displayed until initial contact with price, capturing the moment of greatest potential impact. Once touched, the level discreetly hides, maintaining a clean chart and shifting focus to new high-conviction opportunities.
Institutional Reaction Logic : Anchored in proven market dynamics—first touches at key monthly levels frequently unleash the strongest moves due to concentrated stop-losses, pending orders, and trapped positions—while repeated tests erode strength and diminish reactions.
Full Customization : Fine-tune visuals with customizable colors, line styles, extensions, and proactive alerts as price nears these critical levels, perfect for overlaying on weekly or daily charts for superior confluence.
Designed for traders who think in months and years, Monthly Levels strips away short-term noise and illuminates the structural framework that smart money respects. Combine it seamlessly with Weekly Levels for intermediate swing opportunities and Daily Levels for tactical entries to create a robust, multi-timeframe system that aligns your trades with liquidity across all horizons.
Ready to anticipate major market shifts months in advance? Integrate Monthly Levels into your strategy today and trade with the confidence of seeing where the real money moves!
Cyclical ROC [WIP2]Strategy Overview
Trend Alignment: Focuses on trading exclusively in the direction of the dominant market force.
When to Search for Signals
1. When the Higher Cycle is UP (Bullish Trend)
Bias: Long (Buy).
Action: Wait for the price to pull back (dip) on the lower timeframe.
Signal: Enter when the lower timeframe indicates support holds or momentum turns back up.
Ignore: All short/sell signals.
2. When the Higher Cycle is DOWN (Bearish Trend):
Bias: Short (Sell).
Action: Wait for the price to rally (bounce) on the lower timeframe.
Signal: Enter when the lower timeframe hits resistance or momentum turns back down.
Ignore: All long/buy signals.
Generally, look for long (initiative/breakout) entries when the main cycle curve is up or the area is red but curving sharply up; vice versa for short initiative trades.
Ultimate Imbalance + RSI + Mean Reversion (v6)
FVG / Imbalance Logic:
🔵 Blue boxes (solid)
Bullish imbalances
These are areas where buying was so aggressive that price skipped levels.
What they represent
• Inefficient auction
• Buyers overwhelmed sellers
• Market left “unfinished business” below price
Types inside blue boxes
• Solid blue box = FVG or Opening Gap
• Blue dotted box = Volume Imbalance (VI)
__________________________________________________
🔴 Red boxes (solid)
Bearish imbalances
Opposite of blue: selling pressure skipped levels upward.
What they represent
• Aggressive sellers
• Liquidity vacuum above price
• Unfinished auction above
__________________________________________________
Gray boxes
Dead / resolved imbalances
These were once valid, but are now structurally irrelevant.
Boxes turn Gray when one of two things happened:
1. Filled
• Bullish → price traded down into the bottom of the box
• Bearish → price traded up into the top of the box

• Long bias: RSI ≤ 20 (oversold)
• Short bias: RSI ≥ 80 (overbought)

Mean Reversion Channel (MRC) Logic:
What it measures:
• Distance from statistically “fair” price
• Uses volatility-adjusted bands (not fixed %)
Zones:
• Inner band = Normal mean oscillation
• Outer band = Exhaustion
• Beyond outer = Forced unwind / liquidation
Trade bias logic:
• Long allowed only if: price at or below lower outer band
• Short allowed only if: price at or above upper outer band

Final Signal from all 3 (prints a triangle):
✅ Long setup
1. Active bullish imbalance is touched
2. RSI ≤ oversold
3. Price is at MRC oversold zone
✅ Short setup
1. Active bearish imbalance is touched
2. RSI ≥ overbought
3. Price is at MRC overbought zone
This is why signals are intentionally rare.
Stoch Heat Lines Yeah, the heatmap can be confusing at first, but stochastics are way more complex than people think. Its not just “oversold” to “oversold” most of the time. Sometimes u get a double bottom, sometimes it doesnt even reach oversold. They’re not signals, they’re waves that start on lower timeframes, roll into higher ones, and eventually feed back down again.
For example, we draw a trendline on the 3H RSI and say “trend broken.” That’s technically true, but it doesn’t tell you which trend you broke. Sometimes you only break a small internal wave and RSI curves back up from ~46. Other times you break a larger structure and RSI keeps pushing toward 20.
That difference isn’t visible on a single RSI line.
By watching the top third of the heatmap, you can see which higher-timeframe waves are losing structure. If it shifts from red to orange to yellow, you likely broke a small wave. If it turns green or blue, the move is actually bearish and driven by higher-timeframe pressure.
Weekly LevelsWeekly Levels: Untouched Weekly Close Sequence Indicator
Elevate your swing trading and position trading with Weekly Levels, a powerful TradingView indicator that pinpoints high-probability weekly support and resistance zones based on untouched close sequences. Designed for traders who operate on higher timeframes, this tool reveals key levels where institutional liquidity often accumulates, leading to strong price reactions such as reversals, breakouts, or significant momentum shifts.
Key Features:
Advanced Weekly Level Detection : Automatically identifies and plots weekly support and resistance levels derived from historical weekly close prices, prioritizing untouched sequences for optimal accuracy and relevance.
First-Touch Priority : Levels remain visible only until the market makes initial contact, highlighting the most potent reaction zones. Once touched, the level elegantly hides to keep your charts clean and focused on emerging opportunities.
Market Psychology Integration : Built on the principle that first touches typically trigger the strongest responses due to trapped liquidity and order clusters, while subsequent touches diminish impact—ensuring you target high-conviction setups with potential for large moves.
Flexible Customization : Tailor the indicator to your strategy with adjustable colors, line styles, extension options, and alerts for approaching levels, making it seamless for multi-timeframe analysis.
Perfect for swing traders, position traders, and anyone seeking confluence across timeframes, Weekly Levels delivers clean, actionable insights without overwhelming your charts. Pair it with its companions—Daily Levels for intraday precision and Monthly Levels for big-picture institutional zones—to build a complete multi-timeframe framework that spots liquidity-driven opportunities across all market cycles.
Ready to trade like the institutions? Add Weekly Levels to your arsenal today and gain a decisive edge in capturing major weekly turning points!
Donchian FlowDonchain Flow is a breakout indicator inspired by Donchian channels, using a customizable block size to detect market swings. It generates buy/sell signals only on high-volume breakouts (RVOL > threshold) in strong trends (ADX > threshold), filtering out noisy/choppy periods. Visuals include channel lines, regime background coloring (green: bullish, red: bearish, gray: weak trend), and labeled signals for optimal entries. Ideal for trend-following strategies. Despite its simplicity, it performs surprisingly well. I recommend reviewing it for scalping.
Trinity Cipher Pro PlusTrinity Cipher Pro is an advanced all-in-one oscillator designed to deliver high-probability trading signals by combining a custom Hyper Wave momentum oscillator, Smart Money Flow, real-time divergences, volume-driven reversals, strong confluence scoring, VWAP deviation wave, and a powerful Multi-Timeframe Dashboard. It provides clear visual cues, multiple alert types, and extensive customization to suit scalping, swing trading, or long-term strategies across crypto, stocks, forex, and futures. The indicator emphasizes confluence — the alignment of multiple components — to filter out noise and highlight only the strongest setups.
The main oscillator window displays the Hyper Wave as a fast line (colored cyan when bullish, pink when bearish) and a slower signal line. Small white circles appear on crosses of these lines, marking classic momentum shifts similar to WaveTrend-style entries. The area between the lines is filled for visual clarity, and the entire oscillator is centered around zero with extended ranges for overbought/oversold extremes.
Smart Money Flow appears as a histogram-style fill below the zero line, colored blue when positive and magenta when negative. It uses a modified Money Flow Index smoothed over a user-defined period and dynamically tracks extreme flow thresholds to highlight institutional accumulation or distribution. When the flow exceeds its adaptive threshold, it provides additional confirmation for trend strength.
Confluence is the core filtering mechanism. The indicator calculates a confluence score based on alignment between the Hyper Wave direction and Smart Money Flow strength. A score of +40 or -40 (strong confluence) requires both components to be in the same direction with the flow exceeding its dynamic threshold — this is the highest-probability zone. Scores of +20 or -20 indicate basic directional alignment without extreme flow. Confluence areas shade the upper and lower zones of the oscillator when alignment exists, while a vertical confluence meter on the right side of the pane shows the current score with a gradient bar and arrow pointer.
Reversal signals come in multiple layers. Major reversals appear as small triangles (bullish up, bearish down) at the extreme levels when high volume combines with oscillator extremes and opposing money flow. Minor reversals show as small circles near the zero line on lower-volume momentum shifts. Gold Dots — the highest-probability reversal signals — are large yellow circles that only appear when a major reversal coincides with strong ±40 confluence and a Hyper Wave cross. Mid-line diamonds (purple) mark transitions when the fast line crosses the zero line, signaling potential trend changes.
Divergences are drawn in real-time with customizable lime (bullish) and red (bearish) lines of adjustable width and transparency. They detect classic price-oscillator mismatches on peaks and troughs, with sensitivity controlled by the Divergence Sensibility setting — higher values produce fewer but stronger divergences.
The VWAP Oscillator Wave plots as a separate yellow line showing percentage deviation from session VWAP, doubled for scale. It provides additional context for intraday mean reversion or breakout confirmation.
The Multi-Timeframe Dashboard, located in the top-right corner, displays confluence scores and trend direction for the current timeframe plus up to four user-selected higher timeframes (default 1H, 4H, Daily, Weekly). Strong confluence (±40) receives green/red highlighted backgrounds, while the Trend column shows Bullish or Bearish based on the Hyper Wave position. Dashboard text size and width are fully adjustable for optimal screen real estate.
### Understanding the Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Confluence Dashboard in Trinity Cipher Pro
The Multi-Timeframe Confluence Dashboard is a powerful visual tool displayed in the top-right corner of the oscillator pane, designed to give you instant higher-timeframe context without switching charts. It shows how the core confluence logic of the indicator — the alignment between the Hyper Wave oscillator and Smart Money Flow — behaves across multiple timeframes simultaneously. This helps you quickly assess whether a signal on your current chart is backed by broader trend strength or if it's likely a false move against higher-timeframe momentum.
The dashboard is not based on simple moving averages (EMAs) or any single price average. Instead, it recreates the exact same confluence scoring system used on your current timeframe, but calculated independently on each selected higher timeframe. For every timeframe listed, the indicator uses request.security() to fetch the Hyper Wave fast line position, Smart Money Flow value, and the dynamic flow thresholds from that timeframe's data. It then applies the identical confluence rules: +40 for strong bullish alignment (Hyper Wave positive + Smart Money Flow positive and exceeding its adaptive upper threshold), -40 for strong bearish, +20 for basic bullish alignment, -20 for basic bearish, and 0 for no meaningful alignment.
Each row in the dashboard represents one timeframe. The first row always shows your current chart timeframe (highlighted in yellow for easy reference), followed by up to four user-defined higher timeframes (default settings are 1H, 4H, Daily, and Weekly, but you can change these in the MTF Dashboard settings). The columns display:
- Timeframe label (e.g., "15" for 15-minute, "D" for Daily)
- Confluence score as a number (+40, +20, 0, -20, -40), with strong ±40 values highlighted in green or red background for immediate visual impact
- Trend direction as "Bullish" or "Bearish," determined solely by whether the Hyper Wave fast line is above or below zero on that timeframe
You can fully customize the dashboard's appearance to fit your screen. The "Dashboard Text Size" setting lets you choose Small, Medium, or Large text, making it compact on busy charts or more readable on larger monitors. The "Dashboard Width" option offers Narrow (hides the Trend column for a slimmer layout) or Normal (shows all three columns). If a timeframe field is left blank in settings, its row simply won't appear.
In practice, the dashboard acts as your trend alignment filter. A Gold Dot or major reversal on your current timeframe becomes exponentially more reliable when multiple higher timeframes also show +40 or at least +20 confluence with Bullish trend labels. Conversely, a seemingly strong signal against higher-timeframe confluence (e.g., +40 on 15m but -40 on 1H and Daily) often indicates a counter-trend move with lower probability. Many traders use the dashboard as their primary "go/no-go" decision tool — only taking trades when at least two higher timeframes agree with the current chart's direction and confluence strength.
This MTF confluence calculation runs completely independently for each timeframe using that timeframe's own bar data, ensuring accurate representation of momentum and flow strength at each resolution. The result is one of the most sophisticated MTF confirmation tools available, giving you institutional-grade multi-timeframe awareness in a clean, glanceable format.
Alerts are highly configurable. You can enable notifications for Major Reversals (triangles), Strong Confluence (±40), Hyper Wave Crosses (the small circles on line crosses), and Gold Dots (the yellow high-probability circles). Each alert type triggers separately, allowing precise control over notifications.
To use Trinity Cipher Pro effectively, focus on confluence as your primary filter. The strongest long setups occur when you see a bullish Hyper Wave cross (white circle), positive Smart Money Flow exceeding threshold, confluence score reaching +40 (strong green shading and meter at top), and ideally a Gold Dot or bullish triangle. Confirm with higher-timeframe dashboard alignment — all timeframes showing positive confluence dramatically increases probability. For shorts, mirror the conditions in bearish direction.
For scalping on lower timeframes, tighten Hyper Wave lengths (5-7) and use SMA smoothing for faster crosses, while relying heavily on Gold Dots and strong confluence to avoid whipsaws. Swing traders benefit from default or slightly longer settings (7-10) with EMA smoothing and heavy emphasis on MTF dashboard alignment across 1H, 4H, and Daily.
Risk management remains essential — use Gold Dots and strong confluence zones as primary entry triggers, place stops beyond recent swing points or VWAP extremes, and target extensions based on prior impulse moves or fixed risk-reward ratios. The indicator excels at identifying high-probability reversals and trend continuations when multiple components align, making it one of the most complete confluence-based oscillators available.
VWP TPO Single PrintsPrint Market Profile TPOs single print.
In Market Profile, Single Prints are price levels where the market moved so rapidly that only a single TPO (Time Price Opportunity) exists for the entire trading session.
## What They Represent
Single prints are a sign of extreme imbalance and aggressive initiative activity.
* Speed: They show that the "Other Timeframe" (OTF) participants (large institutional traders) entered the market with such conviction that they drove the price through a range without allowing for two-way trade.
* Lack of Value: Because so little time was spent there, no "value" was established. The market essentially skipped those prices in a rush to find a new area of balance
The "start" of a single print zone often acts as a strong barrier. If the market returns to that level, aggressive participants often defend it to keep the trend alive.
Single prints represent an "unfinished auction." Markets have a tendency to eventually return to these zones to "repair" the profile and trade more thoroughly through those prices.
