Multi Length Market Structure (BoS + ChoCh)█ OVERVIEW The "Multi Length Market Structure (BoS + ChoCh)" indicator is a technical analysis tool that identifies key pivot points on the chart and signals market structure breaks (Break of Structure - BoS) and changes in market character (Change of Character - ChoCh). It is designed for traders employing market structure-based strategies, enabling the identification of critical support and resistance levels and potential trend reversal points. The indicator offers flexible pivot length settings, customizable colors, and labels, ensuring clarity and precision on the chart. █ CONCEPTS The indicator was developed to simplify the identification of changes in market structure, catering to both short-term and longer-term trading strategies. To this end, it simultaneously displays breakouts for four editable pivot lengths. The lengths represent the delay, measured in the number of candles, after which a pivot is recognized. Pivots with larger values are often turning points on higher timeframes, providing a broader view of the market. Why are BoS and ChoCh important? A Break of Structure (BoS) indicates trend continuation when the price breaks a key level (e.g., a previous high or low). A Change of Character (ChoCh) signals a potential trend reversal when the price breaks a level in the opposite direction of the prior trend. These signals help traders identify moments when the market changes its dynamics, which is crucial for price action strategies. █ FEATURES - Pivot Detection: Identifies pivot points (highs and lows) based on four different pivot lengths (default: 5, 10, 15, 20), enabling market structure analysis with varying sensitivity. - BoS and ChoCh Signals: Generates Break of Structure (BoS) signals in the form of triangles (green for bullish, red for bearish) and Change of Character (ChoCh) signals when the price breaks a key level in the opposite direction of the prior trend. - Pivot Labels: Displays labels for highs (HH - Higher High, LH - Lower High) and lows (HL - Higher Low, LL - Lower Low) with the option to select which pivot to display them for. - Customizable Colors and Styles: Allows configuration of colors for BoS and ChoCh signals and pivot labels. - Alerts: Built-in alerts for BoS and ChoCh signals for each pivot length, including price and signal type descriptions. █ HOW TO USE Adding to the Chart: Add the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu. Configuring Settings: - Pivot Lengths: Set four different pivot lengths (Pivot Length 1-4, default: 5, 10, 15, 20) to adjust the sensitivity of pivot detection. Shorter lengths are more sensitive, while longer lengths are more significant. If you want to use only one length, set all pivot lengths to the same value. - Colors and Styles: Configure colors for BoS signals (green for bullish, red for bearish) and pivot labels. - Labels: Enable/disable the display of HH/HL/LH/LL labels and choose which pivot to display them for (Pivot 1-4 or none). - Signals: BoS and ChoCh signals are displayed as triangles (upward for bullish BoS, downward for bearish). Alerts can be configured for each signal type. Interpreting Signals: - Bullish BoS Signal: A green triangle below the candle indicates a breakout above a previous high, suggesting bullish trend continuation. - Bearish BoS Signal: A red triangle above the candle indicates a breakout below a previous low, suggesting bearish trend continuation. - Bullish ChoCh Signal: A green triangle after breaking a high in a downtrend indicates a potential reversal to bullish. - Bearish ChoCh Signal: A red triangle after breaking a low in an uptrend indicates a potential reversal to bearish. - Pivot Levels: Use pivot points as dynamic support and resistance levels. Levels from longer pivots carry greater significance. Combine signals with other technical analysis tools, such as RSI (to identify overbought/oversold conditions) or MACD (to confirm momentum). Analyze market structure on higher timeframes for stronger signals. Be particularly cautious when entering positions if RSI approaches overbought/oversold zones and divergences appear, as this may indicate a trend change. █ APPLICATIONS - Breakout Strategies: Trade based on BoS signals indicating trend continuation. A BoS signal after breaking a high in an uptrend may suggest a strong bullish impulse, especially when supported by a rising MACD. - Reversal Strategies: ChoCh signals may indicate a potential trend reversal, particularly when confirmed by other indicators, such as RSI divergences or Fibonacci levels.

Quantum Edge Signals — trend-aware buy/sell signalsQuantum Edge Signals (Fixed) is a practical, performance-minded indicator for swing and trend traders. It blends StochRSI and volatility to generate buy/sell signals, then filters and classifies those signals with an optional EMA trend filter and an RSI confirmation. The indicator also draws premium/discount price zones, reports buy/sell power inside those zones, plots pivot support/resistance, and places three ATR-based targets plus a stop — all while minimizing chart redraws so objects stay anchored and won’t shift when you pan or drag the chart. Key features • Signal engine: StochRSI oversold/overbought conditions combined with a volatility filter (price change vs. moving average of changes). • Strong signal classification: optional EMA fast/slow trend filter to mark stronger buys/sells. • Non-repainting confirmation: signals are confirmed using the previous bar (the entry price is the close of the confirmed bar). • TP/SL management: three TP levels and one SL derived from ATR. Targets are created at the signal and are recalculated only when the trend flips (adaptive without constant movement). • Premium / Discount zones: boxes drawn around a configurable MA band; zones are created once on entry and anchored to their start bar. • Buy / Sell power: a zone-level buy/sell ratio (smoothed up/down volume) shown as a compact label at zone entry. • Support & resistance: pivot S/R lines and small boxed zones for visual context. • Whale screener: optional background highlight for large-volume bars. • Performance-first: objects are created only when needed and anchored to fixed bar indices to prevent object churn and chart hanging. How signals and targets behave • A signal is considered “confirmed” on the previous bar to avoid repainting. The confirmed signal’s close is used as entryPrice. • TP/SL lines are anchored to the signal bar. By default they are created at signal time and only recalc when the EMA-based trend flips direction — this keeps targets adaptive to meaningful trend changes while avoiding per-bar jitter. • Zones and power labels are created once when price enters the premium or discount region and stay anchored to the zone start bar (so they don’t drift when you pan/drag the chart). Main inputs (what you’ll usually tweak) • Signal Length, Signal Factor — control StochRSI smoothing and the volatility multiplier. • Use 2SD Filter — require price to be outside ±2 standard deviations of MA to trigger a signal. • Show Signals (Classic / Strong / All) — which labels to display. • Zone Length, Zone Offset — how wide and how many bars the premium/discount zones span. • Buy/Sell Power thresholds — set numeric cutoffs for “Weak” / “Strong” labels. • TP/SL Factors & ATR period — the multipliers used to calculate TP1/2/3 and SL from ATR. • Fast/Slow EMA periods — used for the strong signal / trend filter. • S/R Strength & Zone Width — pivot lookback and how wide S/R boxes are. Recommended usage • Timeframes: try 1H, 4H and Daily for swing/trend setups. • Filters: enable the Strong (EMA) filter to limit trades to the direction of the trend. • Zones: keep zone length moderate (10–30 bars) for readability. • Testing: run forward paper trading and walk-forward tests before using real capital. Why this version This release focuses on reliability and chart performance. Objects (labels, lines and boxes) are anchored to the bar that created them, and the indicator avoids repeatedly creating and deleting the same objects on every historical bar — this prevents TradingView from hanging when dragging or panning. Limitations & notes • TP recalculation is based on ATR at the flip bar; the script keeps the original entry price fixed to avoid repainting entries. • If you run many other drawing-heavy indicators at the same time, TradingView may still slow down — use a single instance while testing. • The indicator is visual/confirmational — it is not a fully automated order-execution strategy.

(RSI + CCI) × (MACD/ATR)^2⚙️ (RSI + CCI) × (MACD / ATR)² Composite — Normalized, Compressed, Dynamic Colors This advanced composite oscillator merges three powerful momentum indicators — RSI, CCI, and MACD — into one normalized and volatility-adjusted signal that reacts smoothly across all markets. By dividing MACD by ATR (Average True Range), the indicator self-scales for different symbols, and an optional tanh-like compression prevents extreme spikes while keeping the movement fluid and responsive. 🧩 Core Formula (RSI + CCI) × (MACD / ATR)² (optionally passed through a tanh compression for stability) RSI and CCI are normalized (RSI ÷ 50, CCI ÷ 100) → roughly −2 to +2 range. MACD is volatility-adjusted by ATR → scale-independent between assets. The result is centered around 0 for clear bullish/bearish momentum comparison. 🎨 Visual Features 🟢🔴 Dynamic 4-Color Histogram Positive + Rising = Strong Teal Positive + Falling = Light Teal Negative + Falling = Strong Red Negative + Rising = Light Red 🟡⚫ 4-Color Smoothing Line Positive & Rising = Bright Yellow Positive & Falling = Soft Yellow Negative & Rising = Grey Negative & Falling = Dark Grey Zero-centered layout for intuitive bullish/bearish visualization. ⚙️ Adjustable Parameters Individual RSI, CCI, and MACD lengths and sources. ATR length for volatility normalization. Optional tanh-style compression with adjustable gain (to keep values in ±1 range). Fully customizable colors and line widths for both bars and smoothing line. 🔔 Alerts Triggered automatically when the composite crosses above or below zero, signaling potential trend reversals or momentum shifts. 💡 How to Use Composite > 0 → Bullish momentum ↑ Composite < 0 → Bearish momentum ↓ A brightening line or bar = momentum accelerating. A fading color = momentum weakening or reversal forming. Combine with higher-timeframe trend filters (EMA, VWAP, Supertrend) for confirmation.

Experimental Supertrend [CHE]Experimental Supertrend — Combines EMA crossovers for trend regime detection with an adaptive ATR-based hull that selects the narrowest band to contain recent highs and lows, minimizing false breaks in varying volatility. Summary This indicator overlays a dynamic supertrend boundary around a midline derived from dual EMAs, using EMA crossovers to switch between bullish and bearish regimes. The hull adapts by evaluating multiple ATR periods and selecting the tightest one that fully encloses price action over a specified window, which helps in creating more stable trend lines that hug price without excessive gaps or breaches. Fills between the midline and hull provide visual cues for trend strength, darkening temporarily after regime changes to highlight transitions. Alerts trigger on crossovers, and markers label entry points, making it suitable for trend-following setups where standard supertrends might whipsaw. Overall, it offers robustness through auto-adjustment, reducing sensitivity to noise while maintaining responsiveness to genuine shifts. Motivation: Why this design? Standard supertrend indicators often flip prematurely in choppy markets due to fixed multipliers that do not account for localized volatility patterns, leading to frequent false signals and eroded confidence in trends. This design addresses that by incorporating an EMA-based regime filter for directional bias and an auto-adaptive hull that dynamically tunes the band width based on recent price containment needs. By prioritizing the narrowest effective enclosure, it avoids over-wide bands in calm periods that cause lag or under-wide ones in volatility spikes that invite breaks, providing a more consistent trailing reference without manual tweaking. What’s different vs. standard approaches? - Reference baseline: Diverges from the classic ATR-multiplier supertrend, which uses a single fixed period and constant factor applied to close or high/low deviations. - Architecture differences: - Auto-selection from candidate ATR lengths to find the optimal period for current conditions. - Dynamic multiplier clamped between floor and cap values, adjusted by padding to ensure reliable containment. - Regime-gated rendering, where hull position flips based on EMA relative positioning. - Post-transition visual fading to emphasize change points without altering core logic. - Practical effect: Charts show tighter, more reactive bands that rarely breach during trends, reducing visual clutter from flips; the adaptive nature means less intervention across assets, as the hull self-adjusts to volatility clusters rather than applying a one-size-fits-all scale. How it works (technical) The indicator first computes two EMAs from close prices using lengths derived from a preset pair or manual inputs, establishing a midline as their average. This midline serves as the central reference for the hull. True range values are then smoothed into multiple ATR candidates using exponential weighting over the specified lengths. For each candidate, deviations of recent highs and lows from the midline are ratioed against the ATR to determine a required multiplier that would enclose all extremes in the containment window—the highest ratio plus padding sets the base, clamped to user-defined bounds. Among valid candidates (those with sufficient history), the one yielding the narrowest overall band width is selected. The hull boundaries are then offset from the midline by this multiplier times the chosen ATR, and further smoothed with a fixed EMA to reduce jitter. Regime direction from EMA comparison gates which boundary acts as support or resistance, with initialization seeding arrays on the first bar to handle state persistence. No higher timeframe data is used, so all logic runs on the chart's native bars without lookahead. Parameter Guide EMA Pair — Selects preset lengths for fast and slow EMAs, influencing regime sensitivity and midline stability. Default: "21/55". Trade-offs/Tips: Faster pairs like "9/21" increase cross frequency for scalping but raise false signals; slower like "50/200" smooths for swings, potentially missing early turns. Use Manual for fine control. Manual Fast — Sets fast EMA length when Manual mode is active; shorter values make regime switches quicker. Default: 21. Trade-offs/Tips: Lower than 10 risks over-reactivity; pair with slow at least double for clear separation. Manual Slow — Sets slow EMA length when Manual mode is active; longer values anchor the midline more firmly. Default: 55. Trade-offs/Tips: Above 100 adds lag in trends; balance with fast to avoid perpetual neutrality. ATR Lengths (comma-separated) — Defines candidate periods for ATR smoothing; more options allow finer auto-selection. Default: "7,10,14,21,28,35". Trade-offs/Tips: Fewer candidates speed computation but may miss optimal fits; keep under 10 for efficiency. Containment Window — Number of recent bars the hull must fully enclose highs/lows of; larger windows favor stability. Default: 50. Trade-offs/Tips: Shorter (under 20) adapts faster to breaks but increases breach risk; longer smooths but delays response. Min Multiplier Floor — Lowest allowed multiplier for hull width; prevents overly tight bands in low volatility. Default: 0.5. Trade-offs/Tips: Raise to 0.75 for conservative enclosures; too low allows pinches that flip easily. Max Multiplier Cap — Highest allowed multiplier; caps expansion in spikes to avoid wide, lagging bands. Default: 1.0. Trade-offs/Tips: Lower to 0.75 tightens overall; higher permits more room but risks detachment from price. Padding (+) — Adds buffer to the auto-multiplier for safer containment without exact touches. Default: 0.05. Trade-offs/Tips: Increase to 0.10 in gappy markets; minimal values hug closer but may still breach on outliers. Fill Between (Mid ↔ Supertrend) — Toggles shaded area between midline and active hull for trend visualization. Default: true. Trade-offs/Tips: Disable for cleaner charts; pairs well with transparency tweaks. Base Fill Transparency (0..100) — Sets default opacity of fills; higher values make them subtler. Default: 80. Trade-offs/Tips: Under 50 overwhelms price action; adjust with darken boost for emphasis. Darken on Trend Change — Enables temporary opacity increase after regime shifts to spotlight transitions. Default: true. Trade-offs/Tips: Off for steady visuals; on aids spotting reversals in real-time. Darken Fade Bars — Duration in bars for the darken effect to ramp back to base; longer prolongs highlight. Default: 8. Trade-offs/Tips: Shorter (4-6) for fast-paced charts; longer holds attention on changes. Darken Boost at Change (Δ transp) — Intensity of opacity reduction at crossover; higher values make shifts more prominent. Default: 50. Trade-offs/Tips: Cap at 70 to avoid blackout; tune down if fades obscure details. Show Supertrend Line — Displays the active hull boundary as a line. Default: true. Trade-offs/Tips: Hide for fill-only views; linewidth fixed at 3 for visibility. Show EMA Cross Markers — Places circles and labels at crossover points for entry cues. Default: true. Trade-offs/Tips: Disable in clutter; labels show "Buy"/"Sell" at absolute positions. Alert: EMA Cross Up (Long) — Triggers notification on bullish crossover. Default: true. Trade-offs/Tips: Pair with filters; once-per-bar frequency. Alert: EMA Cross Down (Short) — Triggers notification on bearish crossover. Default: true. Trade-offs/Tips: Use for exits; ensure broker integration. Show Debug — Reveals internal diagnostics like selected ATR details (if implemented). Default: false. Trade-offs/Tips: Enable for troubleshooting selections; minimal overhead. Reading & Interpretation Bullish regime shows a green line below price as support, with upward fill from midline; bearish uses red line above as resistance, downward fill. Crossovers flip the active boundary, marked by tiny green/red circles and "Buy"/"Sell" labels at the hull level. Fills start at base transparency but darken sharply at changes, fading over the specified bars to signal fresh momentum. If the hull rarely breaches during trends, containment is effective; frequent touches without flips indicate tight adaptation. Debug mode (when enabled) overlays text or plots for selected length and multiplier, helping verify auto-choices. Practical Workflows & Combinations - Trend following: Enter long on green "Buy" label above prior low structure; confirm with higher high. Trail stops along the green hull line, tightening as fills stabilize post-fade. - Exits/Stops: Conservative exit on opposite crossover or hull breach; aggressive hold until fade completes if volume supports. Use darken boost as a volatility cue—high delta suggests waiting for confirmation. - Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Defaults suit forex/stocks on 15m-4h; for crypto, widen containment to 75 for gaps. Layer on volume oscillator for cross filters; avoid on low-liquidity assets where ATR candidates skew. Behavior, Constraints & Performance Closed-bar logic ensures signals confirm at bar end, with live bars updating hull adaptively but no repaints since no future data or security calls are used. Arrays persist ATR states across bars, initialized once with candidates parsed from string. Small fixed loops (over 6 lengths max, inner up to 50) run per bar, capped by max_bars_back=500 for history needs. Resources stay low with 500 labels/lines limits, but dense charts may hit on markers. Known limits include initial lag until containment history builds (50+ bars), potential wide bands on gaps, and suboptimal selections if candidates omit ideal lengths. Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning Start with "21/55" pair, 50-window, 0.5-1.0 multipliers, and 80% transparency for balanced responsiveness on daily charts. For too many flips, raise min floor to 0.75 or add lengths like "42"; for sluggishness, shorten window to 30 or pick faster pair. In high-vol environments, boost padding to 0.10; for smoother visuals, extend fade bars to 12. What this indicator is—and isn’t This is a visualization and signal layer for trend regime and adaptive boundaries, aiding entry/exit timing in directional markets. It is not a standalone system—pair with price structure, risk sizing, and broader context. Not predictive of turns, just reactive to containment and crosses.

High Volume Arrow Signals (Ajustável)The High Volume Arrow Signals (Adjustable) indicator is a professional technical analysis tool designed to clearly pinpoint moments when trading volume significantly exceeds its recent average, signaling potential institutional pressure, strong conviction, or market exhaustion. Its primary function is to overlay confirmation signals directly onto the price bars without altering the original candle colors. Strategic Application This indicator is most effective when used as a confluence tool to confirm moves initiated by price action or other indicators: Breakout Confirmation: An arrow plotted during a price range breakout suggests the move has genuine volume conviction. Reversal Identification: A Buy arrow appearing at a key support level (or a Sell arrow at resistance) indicates strong volume rejection and a potential turning point. The adjustable multiplier ensures users can fine-tune the indicator to the specific volatility and volume characteristics of assets like BTC and ETH across different timeframes.

Markov Chain [3D] | Fractalyst & SYNC & TRADE | Multi-TimeframeEnglish Version Author Credit and Thanks: This improved Pine Script code is based on the original work by @Fractalyst. Thank you, Fractalyst, for the foundational code and inspiration! Key Improvements and Differences from Original: Short-term Movement Inner Sphere: Added dynamic inner sphere animation representing short-term (14-bar) regime probabilities, pulsing when active. Original lacked multi-timeframe distinction; now visualizes both midterm (500-bar) outer sphere and short-term inner sphere. Probabilities for Short-term and Midterm Movements: Calculated all transition and self-probabilities separately for short-term (14 bars) and midterm (500 bars) lookbacks. Labels show midterm % (short-term % in parentheses). Original used single lookback; now multi-timeframe with independent matrices. Weights for Each Event: Introduced configurable weights (default 0.1 each) for up to 10 custom indicators in regime detection. Original had no weights; now allows balanced signal combination. 10 External Signals: Expanded to 10 custom input sources (ind1 to ind10) with individual bull/bear thresholds. Original supported 3; now more flexible for complex strategies. Other differences: Separate matrices/state tracking for each timeframe; enhanced visuals with multi-timeframe offsets; regime detection unchanged but applied per timeframe.

TASC 2025.11 The Points and Line Chart█ OVERVIEW This script implements the Points and Line Chart described by Mohamed Ashraf Mahfouz and Mohamed Meregy in the November 2025 edition of the TASC Traders' Tips , "Efficient Display of Irregular Time Series”. This novel chart type interprets regular time series chart data to create an irregular time series chart. █ CONCEPTS When formatting data for display on a price chart, there are two main categorizations of chart types: regular time series (RTS) and irregular time series (ITS). RTS charts, such as a typical candlestick chart, collect data over a specified amount of time and display it at one point. A one-minute candle, for example, represents the entirety of price movements within the minute that it represents. ITS charts display data only after certain conditions are met. Since they do not plot at a consistent time period, they are called “irregular”. Typically, ITS charts, such as Point and Figure (P&F) and Renko charts, focus on price change, plotting only when a certain threshold of change occurs. The Points and Line (P&L) chart operates similarly to a P&F chart, using price change to determine when to plot points. However, instead of plotting the price in points, the P&L chart (by default) plots the closing price from RTS data. In other words, the P&L chart plots its points at the actual RTS close, as opposed to (price) intervals based on point size. This approach creates an ITS while still maintaining a reference to the RTS data, allowing us to gain a better understanding of time while consolidating the chart into an ITS format. █ USAGE Because the P&L chart forms bars based on price action instead of time, it displays displays significantly more history than a typical RTS chart. With this view, we are able to more easily spot support and resistance levels, which we could use when looking to place trades. In the chart below, we can see over 13 years of data consolidated into one single view. To view specific chart details, hover over each point of the chart to see a list of information. In addition to providing a compact view of price movement over larger periods, this new chart type helps make classic chart patterns easier to interpret. When considering breakouts, the closing price provides a clearer representation of the actual breakout, as opposed to point size plots which are limited. Because P&L is a new charting type, this script still requires a standard RTS chart for proper calculations. However, the main price chart is not intended for interpretation alongside the P&L chart; users can hide the main price series to keep the chart clean. █ DISPLAYS This indicator creates two displays: the "Price Display" and the "Data Display". With the "Price display" setting, users can choose between showing a line or OHLC candles for the P&L drawing. The line display shows the close price of the P&L chart. In the candle display, the close price remains the same, while the open, high, and low values depend on the price action between points. With the "Data display" setting, users can enable the display of a histogram that shows either the total volume or days/bars between the points in the P&L chart. For example, a reading of 12 days would indicate that the time since the last point was 12 days. Note: The "Days" setting actually shows the number of chart bars elapsed between P&L points. The displayed value represents days only if the chart uses the "1D" timeframe. The "Overlay P&L on chart" input controls whether the P&L line or candles appear on the main chart pane or in a separate pane. Users can deactivate either display by selecting "None" from the corresponding input. Technical Note: Due to drawing limitations, this indicator has the following display limits: The line display can show data to 10,000 P&L points. The candle display and tooltips show data for up to 500 points. The histograms show data for up to 3,333 points. █ INPUTS Reversal Amount: The number of points/steps required to determine a reversal. Scale size Method: The method used to filter price movements. By default, the P&L chart uses the same scaling method as the P&F chart. Optionally, this scaling method can be changed to use ATR or Percent. P&L Method: The prices to plot and use for filtering: “Close” plots the closing price and uses it to determine movements. “High/Low” uses the high price on upside moves and low price on downside moves. "Point Size" uses the closing price for filtration, but locks the price to plot at point size intervals.

Simplified Percentile ClusteringSimplified Percentile Clustering (SPC) is a clustering system for trend regime analysis. Instead of relying on heavy iterative algorithms such as k-means, SPC takes a deterministic approach: it uses percentiles and running averages to form cluster centers directly from the data, producing smooth, interpretable market state segmentation that updates live with every bar. Most clustering algorithms are designed for offline datasets, they require recomputation, multiple iterations, and fixed sample sizes. SPC borrows from both statistical normalization and distance-based clustering theory , but simplifies them. Percentiles ensure that cluster centers are resistant to outliers , while the running mean provides a stable mid-point reference. Unlike iterative methods, SPC’s centers evolve smoothly with time, ideal for charts that must update in real time without sudden reclassification noise. SPC provides a simple yet powerful clustering heuristic that: Runs continuously in a charting environment, Remains interpretable and reproducible, And allows traders to see how close the current market state is to transitioning between regimes. Clustering by Percentiles Traditional clustering methods find centers through iteration. SPC defines them deterministically using three simple statistics within a moving window: Lower percentile (p_low) → captures the lower basin of feature values. Upper percentile (p_high) → captures the upper basin. Mean (mid) → represents the central tendency. From these, SPC computes stable “centers”: // K = 2 → two regimes (e.g., bullish / bearish) = // K = 3 → adds a neutral zone = These centers move gradually with the market, forming live regime boundaries without ever needing convergence steps. Two clusters capture directional bias; three clusters add a neutral ‘range’ state. Multi-Feature Fusion While SPC can cluster a single feature such as RSI, CCI, Fisher Transform, DMI, Z-Score, or the price-to-MA ratio (MAR), its real strength lies in feature fusion. Each feature adds a unique lens to the clustering system. By toggling features on or off, traders can test how each dimension contributes to the regime structure. In “Clusters” mode, SPC measures how far the current bar is from each cluster center across all enabled features, averages these distances, and assigns the bar to the nearest combined center. This effectively creates a multi-dimensional regime map , where each feature contributes equally to defining the overall market state. The fusion distance is computed as: dist := (rsi_d * on_off(use_rsi) + cci_d * on_off(use_cci) + fis_d * on_off(use_fis) + dmi_d * on_off(use_dmi) + zsc_d * on_off(use_zsc) + mar_d * on_off(use_mar)) / (on_off(use_rsi) + on_off(use_cci) + on_off(use_fis) + on_off(use_dmi) + on_off(use_zsc) + on_off(use_mar)) Because each feature can be standardized (Z-Score), the distances remain comparable across different scales. Fusion mode combines multiple standardized features into a single smooth regime signal. Visualizing Proximity - The Transition Gradient Most indicators show binary or discrete conditions (e.g., bullish/bearish). SPC goes further, it quantifies how close the current value is to flipping into the next cluster. It measures the distances to the two nearest cluster centers and interpolates between them: rel_pos = min_dist / (min_dist + second_min_dist) real_clust = cluster_val + (second_val - cluster_val) * rel_pos This real_clust output forms a continuous line that moves smoothly between clusters: Near 0.0 → firmly within the current regime Around 0.5 → balanced between clusters (transition zone) Near 1.0 → about to flip into the next regime Smooth interpolation reveals when the market is close to a regime change. How to Tune the Parameters SPC includes intuitive parameters to adapt sensitivity and stability: K Clusters (2–3): Defines the number of regimes. K = 2 for trend/range distinction, K = 3 for trend/neutral transitions. Lookback: Determines the number of past bars used for percentile and mean calculations. Higher = smoother, more stable clusters. Lower = faster reaction to new trends. Lower / Upper Percentiles: Define what counts as “low” and “high” states. Adjust to widen or tighten cluster ranges. Shorter lookbacks react quickly to shifts; longer lookbacks smooth the clusters. Visual Interpretation In “Clusters” mode, SPC plots: A colored histogram for each cluster (red, orange, green depending on K) Horizontal guide lines separating cluster levels Smooth proximity transitions between states Each bar’s color also changes based on its assigned cluster, allowing quick recognition of when the market transitions between regimes. Cluster bands visualize regime structure and transitions at a glance. Practical Applications Identify market regimes (bullish, neutral, bearish) in real time Detect early transition phases before a trend flip occurs Fuse multiple indicators into a single consistent signal Engineer interpretable features for machine-learning research Build adaptive filters or hybrid signals based on cluster proximity Final Notes Simplified Percentile Clustering (SPC) provides a balance between mathematical rigor and visual intuition. It replaces complex iterative algorithms with a clear, deterministic logic that any trader can understand, and yet retains the multidimensional insight of a fusion-based clustering system. Use SPC to study how different indicators align, how regimes evolve, and how transitions emerge in real time. It’s not about predicting; it’s about seeing the structure of the market unfold. Disclaimer This indicator is intended for educational and analytical use. It does not generate buy or sell signals. Historical regime transitions are not indicative of future performance. Always validate insights with independent analysis before making trading decisions.

Outside Candle Session Breakout [CHE]Outside Candle Session Breakout Session - anchored HTF levels for clear market-structure and precise breakout context Summary This indicator is a relevant market-structure tool. It anchors the session to the first higher-timeframe bar, then activates only when the second bar forms an outside condition. Price frequently reacts around these anchors, which provides precise breakout context and a clear overview on both lower and higher timeframes. Robustness comes from close-based validation, an adaptive volatility and tick buffer, first-touch enforcement, optional retest, one-signal-per-session, cooldown, and an optional trend filter. Pine version: v6. Overlay: true. Motivation: Why this design? Short-term breakout tools often trigger during noise, duplicate within the same session, or drift when volatility shifts. The core idea is to gate signals behind a meaningful structure event: a first-bar anchor and a subsequent outside bar on the session timeframe. This narrows attention to structurally important breaks while adaptive buffering and debouncing reduce false or mid-run triggers. What’s different vs. standard approaches? Baseline: Simple high-low breaks or fixed buffers without session context. Architecture: Session-anchored first-bar high/low; outside-bar gate; close-based confirmation with an adaptive ATR and tick buffer; first-touch enforcement; optional retest window; one-signal-per-session and cooldown; optional EMA trend and slope filter; higher-timeframe aggregation with lookahead disabled; themeable visuals and a range fill between levels. Practical effect: Cleaner timing at structurally relevant levels, fewer redundant or late triggers, and better multi-timeframe situational awareness. How it works (technical) The chart timeframe is mapped to an analysis timeframe and a session timeframe. The first session bar defines the anchor high and low. The setup becomes active only after the next bar forms an outside range relative to that first bar. While active, the script tracks these anchors and checks for a breakout beyond a buffered threshold, using closing prices or wicks by preference. The buffer scales with volatility and is limited by a minimum tick floor. First-touch enforcement avoids mid-run confirmations. Optional retest requires a pullback to the raw anchor followed by a new close beyond the buffered level within a user window. Optional trend gating uses an EMA on the analysis timeframe, including an optional slope requirement and price-location check. Higher-timeframe data is requested with lookahead disabled. Values can update during a forming higher-timeframe bar; waiting and confirmation mitigate timing shifts. Parameter Guide Enable Long / Enable Short — Direction toggles. Default: true / true. Reduces unwanted side. Wait Candles — Minimum bars after outside confirmation before entries. Default: five. More waiting increases stability. Close-based Breakout — Confirm on candle close beyond buffer. Default: true. For wick sensitivity, disable. ATR Buffer — Enables adaptive volatility buffer. Default: true. ATR Multiplier — Buffer scaling. Default: zero point two. Increase to reduce noise. Ticks Buffer — Minimum buffer in ticks. Default: two. Protects in quiet markets. Cooldown Bars — Blocks new signals after a trigger. Default: three. One Signal per Session — Prevents duplicates within a session. Default: true. Require Retest — Pullback to raw anchor before confirming. Default: false. Retest Window — Bars allowed for retest completion. Default: five. HTF Trend Filter — EMA-based gating. Default: false. EMA Length — EMA period. Default: two hundred. Slope — Require EMA slope direction. Default: true. Price Above/Below EMA — Require price location relative to EMA. Default: true. Show Levels / Highlight Session / Show Signals — Visual controls. Default: true. Color Theme — “Blue-Green” (default), “Monochrome”, “Earth Tones”, “Classic”, “Dark”. Time Period Box — Visibility, size, position, and colors for the info box. (Optional) Reading & Interpretation The two level lines represent the session’s first-bar high and low. The filled band illustrates the active session range. “OUT” marks that the outside condition is confirmed and the setup is live. “LONG” or “SHORT” appears only when the breakout clears buffer, debounce, and optional gates. Background tint indicates sessions where the setup is valid. Alerts fire on confirmed long or short breakout events. Practical Workflows & Combinations Trend-following: Keep close-based validation, ATR buffer near the default, one-signal-per-session enabled; add EMA trend and slope for directional bias. Retest confirmation: Enable retest with a short window to prioritize cleaner continuation after a pullback. Lower-timeframe scalping: Reduce waiting and cooldown slightly; keep a small tick buffer to filter micro-whips. Swing and position context: Increase ATR multiplier and waiting; maintain once-per-session to limit duplicates. Timeframe Tiers and Trader Profiles The script adapts its internal mapping based on the chart timeframe: Under fifteen minutes → Analysis: one minute; Session: sixty minutes. Useful for scalpers and high-frequency intraday reads. Between fifteen and under sixty minutes → Analysis: fifteen minutes; Session: one day. Suits day traders who need intraday alignment to the daily session. Between sixty minutes and under one day → Analysis: sixty minutes; Session: one week. Serves intraday-to-swing transitions and end-of-day planning. Between one day and under one week → Analysis: two hundred forty minutes; Session: two weeks. Fits swing traders who monitor multi-day structure. Between one week and under thirty days → Analysis: one day; Session: three months. Supports position traders seeking quarterly context. Thirty days and above → Analysis: one day; Session: twelve months. Provides a broad annual anchor for macro context. These tiers are designed to keep anchors meaningful across regimes while preserving responsiveness appropriate to the trader profile. Behavior, Constraints & Performance Signals can be validated on closed bars through close-based logic; enabling this reduces intrabar flicker. Higher-timeframe values may evolve during a forming bar; waiting parameters and the outside-bar gate reduce, but do not remove, this effect. Resource footprint is light; the script uses standard indicators and a single higher-timeframe request per stream. Known limits: rare setups during very quiet periods, sensitivity to gaps, and reduced reliability on illiquid symbols. Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning Start with close-based validation on, ATR buffer on with a multiplier near zero point two, tick buffer two, cooldown three, once-per-session on. Too many flips: increase the ATR multiplier and cooldown; consider enabling the EMA filter and slope. Too sluggish: reduce the ATR multiplier and waiting; disable retest. Choppy conditions: keep close-based validation, increase tick buffer, shorten the retest window.

Z-Candle Range 4U [ZuperView]Z-Candle Range 4U helps you quickly spot the strongest and weakest candles among the last “n” bars, based on both the full range (High-Low) and body length (Open-Close). A simple yet highly effective tool to instantly visualize market volatility and imbalance. In trading, not all candles carry the same weight. Some reveal the footprints of major money flows, while others are just minor market noise. Z-Candle Range 4U highlights these extreme candles directly on your chart, providing a clear view of where volatility is expanding or contracting. You simply select the number of bars to analyze (n), and the indicator automatically identifies: The candle with the largest High-Low range (Max Range) → signals strong volatility The candle with the smallest High-Low range (Min Range) → signals price compression The candle with the longest Open-Close body (Max Body) → indicates the strongest directional push The candle with the shortest Open-Close body (Min Body) → indicates hesitation or market balance 📌 Ideal for: Detecting volatility shifts before breakouts or reversals Spotting strong momentum signals, including breakout or impulse bars Identifying accumulation phases and low-volatility periods, useful for breakout strategies Recognizing market pauses and decision-making zones, often preceding major moves Analyzing momentum structure and energy of each price swing Integrating into visual strategies for easy interpretation of market behavior 📌 Key use cases: Detect volatility shifts before breakouts or reversals: When candle ranges (High-Low) expand unusually after a compression phase, it often signals returning volatility. Z-Candle Range 4U makes this expansion clear, helping you prepare for upcoming breakouts or reversals. Spot strong momentum candles (breakouts or impulse bars): When a candle has the longest body (Max Body) in the cycle, it often reflects a powerful push from either buyers or sellers. These are impulse bars – where momentum bursts – signaling the start of a strong price swing or a high-probability breakout. Detect accumulation phases and low-volatility periods: When the indicator identifies candles with the smallest ranges, it indicates that volatility is contracting, and the market is storing energy. This “calm before the storm” phase is highly valuable for preparing and timing breakout setups. Recognize market pauses and indecision zones: Small-bodied candles with relatively wide ranges reflect hesitation and struggle between buyers and sellers. The indicator highlights these zones, which often precede significant moves. Analyze momentum structure and energy of each swing: Comparing candle sizes allows you to measure the strength of each price wave. Shrinking candles indicate weakening momentum, while gradually expanding candles suggest trend consolidation. Integrate into visual strategies for easy market reading: Z-Candle Range 4U highlights extreme candles directly on your chart, allowing traders to interpret price behavior visually. No complex calculations are needed to sense volatility, momentum, and structural changes accurately. Additionally, the indicator includes alerts to notify you when extreme candles appear, even when you’re away from the chart.

Momentum-Based Fair Value Gaps [BackQuant]Momentum-Based Fair Value Gaps A precision tool that detects Fair Value Gaps and color-codes each zone by momentum, so you can quickly tell which imbalances matter, which are likely to fill, and which may power continuation. What is a Fair Value Gap A Fair Value Gap is a 3-candle price imbalance that forms when the middle candle expands fast enough that it leaves a void between candle 1 and candle 3. Bullish FVG : low > high . This marks a bullish imbalance left beneath price. Bearish FVG : high < low . This marks a bearish imbalance left above price. These zones often act as magnets for mean reversion or as fuel for trend continuation when price respects the gap boundary and runs. Why add momentum Not all gaps are equal. This script measures momentum with RSI on your chosen source and paints each FVG with a momentum heatmap. Strong-momentum gaps are more likely to hold or propel continuation. Weak-momentum gaps are more likely to fill. Core Features Auto FVG Detection with size filters in percent of price. Momentum Heatmap per gap using RSI with smoothing. Multiple palettes: Gradient, Discrete, Simple, and scientific schemes like Viridis, Plasma, Inferno, Magma, Cividis, Turbo, Jet, plus Red-Green and Blue-White-Red. Bull and Bear Modes with independent toggles. Extend Until Filled : keep drawing live to the right until price fully fills the gap. Auto Remove Filled for a clean chart. Optional Labels showing the smoothed RSI value stored at the gap’s birth. RSI-based Filters : only accept bullish gaps when RSI is oversold and bearish gaps when RSI is overbought. Performance Controls : cap how many FVGs to keep on chart. Alerts : new bullish or bearish FVG, filled FVG, and extreme RSI FVGs. How it works Source for Momentum : choose Returns, Close, or Volume. Returns computes percent change over a short lookback to focus on impulse quality. RSI and Smoothing : RSI length and a small SMA smooth the signal to stabilize the color coding. Gap Scan : each bar checks for a 3-candle bullish or bearish imbalance that also clears your minimum size filter in percent of price. Heatmap Color : the gap is painted at creation with a color from your palette based on the smoothed RSI value, preserving the momentum signature that formed it. Lifecycle : if Extend Unfilled is on, the zone projects forward until price fully trades through the far edge. If Auto Remove is on, a filled gap is deleted immediately. How to use it Scan for structure : turn on both bullish and bearish FVGs. Start with a moderate Min FVG Size percent to reduce noise. You will see stacked clusters in trends and scattered singletons in chop. Read the colors : brighter or stronger palette values imply stronger momentum at gap formation. Weakly colored gaps are lower conviction. Decide bias : bullish FVGs below price suggest demand footprints. Bearish FVGs above price suggest supply footprints. Use the heatmap and RSI value to rank importance. Choose your playbook : Mean reversion : target partial or full fills of opposing FVGs that were created on weak momentum or that sit against higher timeframe context. Trend continuation : look for price to respect the near edge of a strong-momentum FVG, then break away in the direction of the original impulse. Manage risk : in continuation ideas, invalidation often sits beyond the opposite edge of the active FVG. In reversion ideas, invalidation sits beyond the gap that should attract price. Two trade playbooks Continuation - Buy the hold of a bullish FVG Context uptrend. A bullish FVG prints with strong RSI color. Price revisits the top of the gap, holds, and rotates up. Enter on hold or first higher low inside or just above the gap. Invalidation: below the gap bottom. Targets: prior swing, measured move, or next LV area. Reversion - Fade a weak bearish FVG toward fill Context range or fading trend. A bearish FVG prints with weak RSI color near a completed move. Price fails to accelerate lower and rotates back into the gap. Enter toward mid-gap with confirmation. Invalidation: above gap top. Target: opposite edge for a full fill, or the gap midline for partials. Key settings Max FVG Display : memory cap to keep charts fast. Try 30 to 60 on intraday. Min FVG Size % : sets a quality floor. Start near 0.20 to 0.50 on liquid markets. RSI Length and Smooth : 14 and 3 are balanced. Increase length for higher timeframe stability. RSI Source : Returns : most sensitive to true momentum bursts Close : traditional. Volume : uses raw volume impulses to judge footprint strength. Filter by RSI Extremes : tighten rules so only the most stretched gaps print as signals. Heatmap Style and Palette : pick a palette with good contrast for your background. Gradient for continuous feel, Discrete for quick zoning, Simple for binary, Palette for scientific schemes. Extend Unfilled - Auto Remove : choose live projection and cleanup behavior to match your workflow. Reading the chart Bullish zones sit beneath price. Respect and hold of the upper boundary suggests demand. Strong green or warm palette tones indicate impulse quality. Bearish zones sit above price. Respect and hold of the lower boundary suggests supply. Strong red or cool palette tones indicate impulse quality. Stacking : multiple same-direction gaps stacked in a trend create ladders. Ladders often act as stepping stones for continuation. Overlapping : opposing gaps overlapping in a small region usually mark a battle zone. Expect chop until one side is absorbed. Workflow tips Map higher timeframe trend first. Use lower timeframe FVGs for entries aligned with the higher timeframe bias. Increase Min FVG Size percent and RSI length for noisy symbols. Use labels when learning to correlate the RSI numbers with your palette colors. Combine with VWAP or moving averages for confluence at FVG edges.
