Apex Edge - VantageApex Edge – Vantage Quarter-Wick Reversal System | Price Action Based | Non-Repainting | Visual Confirmation Tool Overview: Apex Edge – Vantage is a precision price action indicator built to assist traders in identifying high-probability reversal entries — not based on indicators, but on how candles behave at their extremes. This tool implements a clean, repeatable framework that reflects how I personally trade: Spot a candle that closes with strong directional intent, Then wait for a controlled pullback into the outer quarter, And strike — only if price respects that line. There’s no magic here — just raw, tactical logic visualized clearly on your chart. It's not designed to predict the market — it's built to respond when price offers you Vantage. Core Logic: Dot Detection – Final Quarter Close Candles A green dot prints below a bullish candle if it closes within the top 25% of its wick-to-wick range. A red dot prints above a bearish candle if it closes within the bottom 25% of its range. These dots signify candles that made a strong, deliberate move in one direction — where price was pushed to an extreme and held that extreme into the close. These candles often signal institutional intent or momentum imbalance. Entry Confirmation – Controlled Wick Rebalance On the very next candle only, price must wick into the prior dot candle's outer quarter — but must not pass beyond it. For buy entries, the wick must enter the bottom 25% of the previous green dot candle, but not dip below it. For sell entries, the wick must reach into the top 25% of the red dot candle, but not exceed it. This wick into the quarter is seen as a controlled rebalancing — a tactical reaction back into the origin zone before potential continuation. Arrow Printing – Visual Entry Signal Once the entry criteria are confirmed, an arrow is printed after the candle closes. This arrow continues to print on each new candle as long as price does not violate the original entry zone — giving visual confirmation that the trade thesis is still valid. If price breaks above/below the quarter range, the arrow disappears. This ongoing confirmation is useful for staying in trades, managing risk, or spotting failed setups early. Automatic Stop Loss Level A horizontal Stop Loss line is drawn from the extreme wick of the original dot candle. For buy entries, SL is placed below the green dot candle's low. For sell entries, SL is placed above the red dot candle's high. This provides immediate risk context — perfect for traders using limit orders or looking to scale in. Coding Logic: This script uses plotshape() and plot() functions for all visual elements. Dot candles are identified using quarter-range logic via: pinescript Copy Edit close >= high - (high - low) * 0.25 // for bullish close <= low + (high - low) * 0.25 // for bearish Entry validation logic triggers only on the next candle, using: pinescript Copy Edit low >= quarterLine and low <= high // for buy entries high <= quarterLine and high >= low // for sell entries Arrows and SL lines are plotted only on closed candles, ensuring non-repainting behavior. alertcondition() is used for real-time alerts on valid buy/sell triggers. How I Personally Use It: I wait for a dot to print — this shows directional conviction. On the next candle, I watch for a tap into the outer quarter. If the wick meets the criteria and the candle closes, I’ll execute manually at the close of that candle. As long as the arrow remains on the chart, I know the setup hasn’t been invalidated. I combine this with market structure, session timing, and liquidity context to build confluence around each trade. Alerts Included: Buy Entry Alert: When a green arrow prints (entry confirmed) Sell Entry Alert: When a red arrow prints (entry confirmed) These fire once per confirmed signal, allowing you to react in real-time or automate if desired. Who This Is For: Manual traders who want clean price-based entries Anyone who uses market structure, SMC, or liquidity concepts Traders looking to replace indicators with pure candle logic Discretionary or semi-systematic traders who want visual tools to guide their decisions Final Word Apex Edge – Vantage doesn’t predict price — it shows you where price is offering you control. This is a surgical tool designed to help you act only when the market gives you a measurable edge — and to stay in the trade as long as that edge holds. If you're ready to stop chasing trades and start striking from a position of Vantage, then this tool belongs on your chart.

NEPALI DASHBOARD NEPALI DASHBORAD - All-In-One Sentiment Dashboard Overview The NEPALI DASHBORAD is a comprehensive, all-in-one dashboard designed to give day traders a quick yet powerful overview of market sentiment. Instead of cluttering your chart with dozens of individual indicators, this tool consolidates the signals from 11 different technical indicators into a single, easy-to-read table. It calculates an overall bull/bear sentiment score and provides a trading recommendation based on the confluence of these signals, helping you make more informed decisions at a glance. The dashboard is fully customizable, allowing you to adjust indicator settings, change the table size, and move it to any corner of your chart. Key Features Multi-Indicator Analysis: Gathers data from 11 essential indicators covering trend, momentum, volume, and volatility. Sentiment Score: Calculates a simple "Bull vs. Bear" score to instantly gauge market sentiment. Actionable Recommendations: Provides a clear trading recommendation (Strong Buy, Buy, Sell, Strong Sell, Hold) based on the strength of the confluence. Higher Timeframe (HTF) Context: Includes an HTF trend analysis to ensure your trades align with the bigger picture. Customizable Dashboard: Easily change the size and position of the dashboard to fit your workspace. How to Use Check the Market Sentiment: Look at the "Bull vs. Bear" score first. A high score (e.g., 8 vs. 3) indicates strong confluence in one direction. Verify the HTF Trend: Ensure your intended trade direction aligns with the higher timeframe trend for better probability. For example, be cautious about taking "SELL" signals if the HTF Trend is strongly "BULL." Use the Recommendation as a Guide: The "Recommendation" and "Confidence" % give you a summary of the indicator signals. A "STRONG BUY" or "STRONG SELL" means that a significant majority of the indicators are in agreement. Drill Down into Indicators: Use the individual indicator statuses in the table to understand why the market sentiment is bullish or bearish. For example, you might see that momentum indicators (RSI, Stoch) are bullish, but trend indicators (MA, MACD) are still lagging. Combine with Your Strategy: This dashboard is a powerful confirmation tool. Use its signals to confirm entries and exits for your existing trading strategy. Do not use it as a standalone signal provider. Disclaimer In simple terms: This is a tool for analysis, not a signal to trade. Your money is your responsibility.

Normalized Fibonacci Retracement (MTF/LOG)A question: Instead of creating indicators that constantly plot Fibonacci Retracement levels in a visually overwhelming way, why don't we redefine them on a different scale? 🤨 Overview The Normalized Fibonacci Retracement indicator converts price data to a 0-100 scale based on the selected timeframe's high-low range, displaying normalized candlesticks alongside standard Fibonacci levels (23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 78.6%). This normalization reveals patterns that may be hidden in absolute price charts and allows consistent analysis across different instruments. Originality By normalizing prices to percentages, this indicator enables pattern recognition independent of absolute price levels. The same formation at $10-$20 and $1000-$2000 appears identical on the normalized scale, helping traders identify recurring structures across various assets and timeframes. Concepts The indicator uses a simple formula to transform price data into percentages. This creates a bounded scale where patterns become comparable regardless of the underlying asset's price range. The normalized view often reveals symmetries and relationships not visible in traditional price charts. Mechanics The system tracks highs and lows within the selected timeframe as anchor points. When a new period begins, fresh boundaries are established and prices recalculated. Trend direction is determined by timing of extremes. Linear scaling uses direct percentage calculation, while logarithmic scaling applies exponential interpolation for assets with large percentage moves. Functions Timeframe Selection: Higher timeframe analysis on any chart resolution Normalized Display: OHLC data converted to 0-100 percentage scale Fibonacci Levels: Standard retracement levels plotted automatically Scaling Options: Linear or logarithmic calculation methods Pattern Recognition: Reveals formations hidden in absolute price charts Moving Average: Optional 20-period SMA overlay Notes Ensure chart data covers the full selected timeframe for accurate calculations. Use logarithmic scaling for volatile assets with large percentage moves. The normalized scale is effective at revealing patterns and structures that remain consistent across different price ranges, making it particularly useful for comparative analysis and pattern-based trading strategies. I hope it helps everyone. Do not forget to manage your risk. And trade as safely as possible. Best of luck!

Scalping Candle [Crak x MMT]The Scalping Candle is a TradingView indicator designed for scalping strategies, identifying potential bullish and bearish engulfing patterns on price charts. It overlays directly on the chart and marks specific candle patterns with visual signals, helping traders spot short-term trading opportunities. The indicator includes a customizable bias filter to focus on bullish, bearish, or neutral market conditions. Features Overlay Indicator : Displays bullish and bearish signals directly on the price chart. Bias Filter : Allows users to select a market bias ('Bullish', 'Bearish', or 'Neutral') to filter signals based on their trading preference. Visual Signals : Plots green upward triangles below bullish candles and red downward triangles above bearish candles. Alerts : Generates alerts for bullish and bearish engulfing patterns, enabling timely notifications for trade setups. How It Works The indicator analyzes the relationship between the current and previous candles to detect engulfing patterns: Bullish Engulfing : Triggered when the current candle's low is at or below the previous candle's low, and its close is at or above the previous candle's midpoint. This signal is displayed only if the bias filter is set to 'Neutral' or 'Bullish'. Bearish Engulfing : Triggered when the current candle's high is at or above the previous candle's high, and its close is at or below the previous candle's midpoint. This signal is displayed only if the bias filter is set to 'Neutral' or 'Bearish'. The previous candle's midpoint is calculated as the average of its high and low prices. Usage - Add to Chart : Apply the indicator to any TradingView chart. - Configure Bias Filter : Neutral : Displays both bullish and bearish signals. Bullish : Displays only bullish signals. Bearish : Displays only bearish signals. - Interpret Signals : Green upward triangle below a candle indicates a potential bullish reversal. Red downward triangle above a candle indicates a potential bearish reversal. - Set Alerts : Use the built-in alert conditions to receive notifications when bullish or bearish engulfing patterns are detected. Settings Bias Filter : Choose between 'Neutral', 'Bullish', or 'Bearish' to control which signals are displayed. Shape Size : Signals are plotted as small triangles for minimal chart clutter. Alert Conditions : Enable alerts for 'Bullish Engulfing Detected' or 'Bearish Engulfing Detected' to stay informed of new signals. Ideal Use Case This indicator is tailored for scalpers and short-term traders looking to capitalize on quick price movements driven by engulfing candle patterns. It works best on 15-minute chart and can be combined with other technical tools for confirmation.

Rolling Log Returns [BackQuant]Rolling Log Returns The Rolling Log Returns indicator is a versatile tool designed to help traders, quants, and data-driven analysts evaluate the dynamics of price changes using logarithmic return analysis. Widely adopted in quantitative finance, log returns offer several mathematical and statistical advantages over simple returns, making them ideal for backtesting, portfolio optimization, volatility modeling, and risk management. What Are Log Returns? In quantitative finance, logarithmic returns are defined as: ln(Pₜ / Pₜ₋₁) or for rolling periods: ln(Pₜ / Pₜ₋ₙ) where P represents price and n is the rolling lookback window. Log returns are preferred because: They are time additive : returns over multiple periods can be summed. They allow for easier statistical modeling , especially when assuming normally distributed returns. They behave symmetrically for gains and losses, unlike arithmetic returns. They normalize percentage changes, making cross-asset or cross-timeframe comparisons more consistent. Indicator Overview The Rolling Log Returns indicator computes log returns either on a standard (1-period) basis or using a rolling lookback period , allowing users to adapt it to short-term trading or long-term trend analysis. It also supports a comparison series , enabling traders to compare the return structure of the main charted asset to another instrument (e.g., SPY, BTC, etc.). Core Features ✅ Return Modes : Normal Log Returns : Measures ln(price / price ), ideal for day-to-day return analysis. Rolling Log Returns : Measures ln(price / price ), highlighting price drift over longer horizons. ✅ Comparison Support : Compare log returns of the primary instrument to another symbol (like an index or ETF). Useful for relative performance and market regime analysis . ✅ Moving Averages of Returns : Smooth noisy return series with customizable MA types: SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, and Linear Regression. Applicable to both primary and comparison series. ✅ Conditional Coloring : Returns > 0 are colored green ; returns < 0 are red . Comparison series gets its own unique color scheme. ✅ Extreme Return Detection : Highlight unusually large price moves using upper/lower thresholds. Visually flags abnormal volatility events such as earnings surprises or macroeconomic shocks. Quantitative Use Cases 🔍 Return Distribution Analysis : Gain insight into the statistical properties of asset returns (e.g., skewness, kurtosis, tail behavior). 📉 Risk Management : Use historical return outliers to define drawdown expectations, stress tests, or VaR simulations. 🔁 Strategy Backtesting : Apply rolling log returns to momentum or mean-reversion models where compounding and consistent scaling matter. 📊 Market Regime Detection : Identify periods of consistent overperformance/underperformance relative to a benchmark asset. 📈 Signal Engineering : Incorporate return deltas, moving average crossover of returns, or threshold-based triggers into machine learning pipelines or rule-based systems.
