Microstructure Participation & Acceptance Indicator๐ Microstructure Participation & Acceptance Indicator
An advanced participation-based filter combining VWAP distance analysis, volume delta detection, and real-time acceptance/rejection state identificationโdesigned for smaller timeframe trading.
๐ FEATURES
VWAP Distance Normalization
Context-aware fair value measurement:
Automatically resets based on selected anchor (Session/Week/Month)
ATR-normalized distance calculation for universal application
Identifies when price is extended or compressed relative to equilibrium
Configurable extreme distance threshold (default: 1.5 ATR)
Adjustable source input (default: HLC3)
Volume Delta Proxy
Bull vs Bear participation tracking:
Calculates volume imbalance between bullish and bearish candles
EMA smoothing for cleaner signal generation (default: 9 periods)
Delta ratio measurement to identify dominant side
Expansion/compression detection to gauge momentum commitment
Configurable expansion threshold (default: 1.3x)
Acceptance/Rejection State Machine
Real-time market regime identification with six distinct states:
๐ข Accepted Long
Price moving away from VWAP with expanding bullish delta
Distance from VWAP increasing
Volume confirming the move
Indicates real buying pressureโtrade WITH the move
๐ข Accepted Short
Price moving away from VWAP with expanding bearish delta
Distance from VWAP increasing
Volume confirming the move
Indicates real selling pressureโtrade WITH the move
๐ Fade Long
Price extended beyond threshold (>1.5 ATR above VWAP)
Delta not supporting the extension
Volume participation absent or diminishing
Potential mean-reversion short setup
๐ Fade Short
Price extended beyond threshold (>1.5 ATR below VWAP)
Delta not supporting the extension
Volume participation absent or diminishing
Potential mean-reversion long setup
โช Chop
Price compressed near VWAP
Bollinger Bands tight (width compressed)
Delta neutralโno clear commitment
NO TRADE ZONEโwait for expansion
โช Neutral
Transitional state between regimes
Momentum shifting but not yet confirmed
Monitor for next acceptance signal
Bollinger Bands
Standard volatility measurement with TradingView default styling:
Adjustable period length (default: 20)
Configurable standard deviation multiplier (default: 2.0)
Visual fill between bands for volatility context
Used internally for chop/compression detection
Live Dashboard
Real-time metrics display (top-right corner):
Current market state with color coding
VWAP distance in ATR units
Delta ratio (bull/bear volume balance)
Delta state (Expanding/Compressing)
High-contrast design for instant readability
๐ฏ HOW TO USE
For Trend Trading:
Accepted Long/Short backgrounds indicate confirmed participationโstay with the trend
Strong moves typically travel 1-1.5 ATR from VWAP with delta support
Use VWAP as dynamic support/resistance
Combine with momentum indicators (MACD, RSI) for confluence
Price above VWAP + Accepted Long state = bullish bias
Price below VWAP + Accepted Short state = bearish bias
For Mean Reversion:
Fade Long/Short states signal overextension without participation
Price beyond 1.5 ATR from VWAP with weak delta = potential reversal
Look for price return to VWAP when extended
Bollinger Band extremes + Fade state = high-probability mean reversion setup
VWAP acts as mean reversion anchor during range-bound sessions
For Risk Management:
Chop state = avoid new entries
Bollinger Band compression + Chop = pre-expansion zone (wait for breakout)
Delta compression after strong move = early exhaustion warning
State transitions (Accepted โ Neutral โ Fade) = tighten stops
Signal Confirmation:
Strongest setups occur when multiple factors align:
BB breakout + Accepted state + price above/below VWAP
Price rejection at BB bands + Fade state
VWAP support/resistance hold + state transition
Delta expansion + distance increasing + trend direction
โ๏ธ SETTINGS
All components are fully customizable through organized input groups:
VWAP Distance Group:
VWAP source (default: HLC3)
Anchor period (Session/Week/Month)
ATR length for normalization (default: 14)

AI-based Price action confluence dashboard# **AI-Based Price Action Confluence Dashboard - Publication Guide**
Here's a comprehensive introduction guide for your TradingView indicator publication:
***
## **๐ TITLE**
**AI-Based Price Action Confluence Dashboard**
***
## **๐ฏ SHORT DESCRIPTION** (For the summary field)
A sophisticated real-time confluence scoring system that analyzes multiple price action signals across 15-minute timeframes, providing traders with an AI-weighted scoring mechanism (0-6 scale) to identify high-probability trade setups through visual signal panels and intelligent path detection.
***
## **๐ FULL DESCRIPTION**
### **Overview**
The AI-Based Price Action Confluence Dashboard is an advanced technical indicator designed to eliminate guesswork in intraday trading by systematically scoring and displaying multiple price action signals in real-time. Unlike traditional single-indicator approaches, this dashboard employs a confluence methodology that combines multiple independent signals to provide stronger trade confirmations and reduce false signals.
This indicator is specifically optimized for **1-minute chart analysis** while monitoring **15-minute price structure**, making it ideal for day traders and scalpers who need precise entry timing with larger timeframe context.
***
### **๐ Key Features**
**โ
Real-Time AI Confluence Scoring**
- Dynamic scoring system (0-6 points) for both bullish and bearish setups
- Visual meter display shows signal strength at a glance
- Color-coded backgrounds indicate confluence levels (strong, moderate, mixed)
**โ
Multi-Signal Analysis**
The dashboard tracks 6 distinct signal types:
1. **FTFC (First to Finish Close)** - Base & Bonus signals
2. **Long/Short Grab** - Liquidity sweep patterns (Path A)
3. **High/Low Hold** - Extended momentum confirmation (+2 bonus)
4. **2-Up/2-Down** - Clean breakout patterns (Path B)
5. **Breakaway** - First candle gap strategies
**โ
Intelligent Path Detection**
- Mutually exclusive path logic prevents signal conflicts
- Automatically identifies whether price is following a "sweep path" or "clean path"
- Unavailable paths are clearly marked with gray indicators
**โ
Visual Signal Panels**
- ๐ข Green Light = Bullish signal ACTIVE
- ๐ด Red Light = Bearish signal ACTIVE
- ๐ก Yellow Light = Signal BUILDING (conditions partially met)
- โช White Light = Signal OFF
- โช๏ธ Gray Square = Path UNAVAILABLE (mutually exclusive)
**โ
Comprehensive Alert System**
- 10 different alert conditions covering all major signals
- Strong confluence alerts (5+ points)
- Individual signal completion alerts
- Customizable alert messages
***
### **๐ How It Works**
#### **The Confluence Methodology**
This indicator implements a sophisticated confluence trading approach where multiple independent price action signals are combined to identify high-probability setups. Each signal type contributes points to either the bullish or bearish score, with a maximum of 6 points per direction.
**Scoring Breakdown:**
**BULLISH SIGNALS:**
- FTFC Base (15m close > previous 15m close) = +1
- FTFC Bonus (price clears 15th candle high) = +1
- **PATH A (Sweep):** Long Grab = +1, High Hold Bonus = +2
- **PATH B (Clean):** 2-Up = +1, 2-Up Bonus = +1
- Breakaway (gap above first candle) = +1
**BEARISH SIGNALS:**
- FTFC Base (15m close < previous 15m close) = +1
- FTFC Bonus (price clears 15th candle low) = +1
- **PATH A (Sweep):** Short Grab = +1, Low Hold Bonus = +2
- **PATH B (Clean):** 2-Down = +1, 2-Down Bonus = +1
- Breakaway (gap below first candle) = +1
#### **Path Detection Logic**
The indicator automatically determines which path the market is following:
**PATH A: SWEEP PATH**
- Activated when previous 15m low (bull) or high (bear) is breached
- Indicates liquidity grab before reversal
- Includes powerful +2 bonus for "Hold" confirmations
- Mutually exclusive with Path B
**PATH B: CLEAN PATH**
- Activated when previous 15m low (bull) or high (bear) holds
- Indicates strong directional momentum without sweep
- Cleaner price action but smaller point potential
- Mutually exclusive with Path A
This mutual exclusivity prevents double-counting and ensures signal accuracy.
***
### **๐จ How to Use**
#### **Installation**
1. Add indicator to your 1-minute chart
2. The dashboard appears as a table overlay (default: top right)
3. No additional indicators required - this is a complete system
#### **Reading the Dashboard**
**Top Section - Confluence Meter:**
- Shows current bull/bear scores with visual dot meters
- Background color changes based on confluence strength:
- **Bright Green/Red** = 5+ points (strong directional bias)
- **Medium Green/Red** = 3+ points (moderate bias)
- **Orange** = 3+ points both sides (conflicting signals)
- **Gray** = Low confluence (choppy conditions)
**Signal Panels Section:**
- Each row shows a signal type with bull/bear lights side-by-side
- Active signals (๐ข๐ด) contribute to the total score
- Building signals (๐ก) indicate potential setups forming
- Unavailable paths (โช๏ธ) show which exclusive path is blocked
#### **Trading Strategy**
**High-Probability Long Entries:**
- Bull score โฅ 5 AND bear score โค 1
- Multiple green lights active in signal panels
- PATH A or PATH B showing full completion
- Consider entry on pullback to key 15m level
**High-Probability Short Entries:**
- Bear score โฅ 5 AND bull score โค 1
- Multiple red lights active in signal panels
- PATH A or PATH B showing full completion
- Consider entry on rally to key 15m level
**Avoid Trading When:**
- Both scores are 3+ (conflicting signals)
- No path is showing active/building status
- Score is below 3 on both sides (low confluence)
#### **Risk Management**
- Use 15m swing high/low for stop placement
- Target opposing 15m level or previous session extremes
- Scale out at partial targets when confluence decreases
- Best results when combined with proper position sizing
***
### **โ๏ธ Customization**
**Dashboard Settings:**
- **Table Location:** Top Left, Top Right, Bottom Left, Bottom Right
- **Text Size:** Tiny, Small, Normal, Large
**Color Scheme:**

Call-Put Cross Strike Match [Pro]๐ Call-Put Cross Strike Match - Professional Options Trading Indicator
Advanced NSE Options Analysis with AI-Powered Trading Signals & Dynamic Display
๐ฏ Overview
The Call-Put Cross Strike Match is an institutional-grade options analysis tool designed exclusively for NSE NIFTY and BANKNIFTY traders. Built on Pine Script v6, this indicator combines sophisticated cross-strike matching algorithms with intelligent trading signal generation to identify optimal options trading opportunities in real-time.
What makes it unique:
Analyzes 25 call-put combinations simultaneously
Generates actionable BUY/SELL signals using professional strategies
Fully customizable display with 9 table positions and 6 size options
Simplified setup with semi-automatic ATM detection
Clean, clutter-free interface with only essential information

โจ Key Features
1. ๐ Advanced Cross-Strike Matching Algorithm
The indicator calculates price differences for all 25 combinations (5 call strikes ร 5 put strikes) and identifies the best matches based on put-call parity.
How it works:
Compares each call option price with every put option price
Calculates absolute difference: |Call - Put |
Ranks all 25 combinations from lowest to highest difference
Highlights top 3 or top 5 matches with visual checkmarks
Visual indicators:
โโ (Double check) = Best match (lowest price difference)
โ (Single check) = Good matches (top 3 or top 5)
Empty cells = No match (significant price difference)
Why this matters:
When Call โ Put at same strike, it indicates fair pricing and synthetic position opportunities. The indicator automatically finds these opportunities across different strike combinations.
2. ๐ฏ Intelligent Trading Signals (Last Column)
The indicator generates professional trading recommendations based on Call-Put price difference analysis:
Signal Types:
BUY CE - Long call opportunity (bullish)
SELL CE - Short call opportunity (premium selling)
BUY PE - Long put opportunity (bearish/hedge)
SELL PE - Short put opportunity (premium selling)
BULL - Moderate bullish bias
BEAR - Moderate bearish bias
ATM - Neutral market (near parity)
NEUTRAL - No clear bias
Color-Coded for Quick Decisions:
๐ฉ Green = Long opportunities (BUY CE, BULL)
๐ฅ Red = Short call opportunities (SELL CE)
๐ง Orange = Long put opportunities (BUY PE)
๐ซ Maroon = Short put opportunities (SELL PE)
โฌ Gray = Neutral zones (ATM, NEUTRAL)

๐ Best Practices
Strike Selection & Maintenance
At Market Open (9:15 AM):
Check current price (e.g., NIFTY at 25,937)
Round to nearest interval (25,950 for 50 interval)
Enter 5 strikes: -100, -50, 0, +50, +100 from ATM
Update Frequency:
Usually no update needed entire day
Update only if market moves 100+ points from initial ATM
Typically 0-2 updates per trading session
Signal Interpretation by Confidence Level
High Confidence (โโ + Signal):
Best match indicator present
Strongest signal quality
Highest probability setup
Medium Confidence (โ + Signal):
Good match present
Reliable signal
Acceptable risk/reward
Low Confidence (Signal without โ):
No match indicator
Strike far from parity
Requires additional confirmation
Risk Management Rules
Never trade signals blindly. Always:
โ
Confirm with price action and support/resistance
โ
Check overall market trend (NIFTY/BANKNIFTY direction)
โ
Consider time decay (theta) for your position
โ
Monitor IV changes (implied volatility)
โ
Use proper position sizing (1-2% risk per trade)
โ
Set stop losses (20-30% of premium for longs)
โ
Have profit targets (30-50% for scalps)
Timeframe Selection
Intraday Trading:
Use 5-minute or 15-minute chart

๐ฌ FAQ
Q: Why manual strike entry? Why not fully automatic?
A: Pine Script's type system limits fully automatic strike generation from live data. However, setup takes just 30 seconds once at market open, and the indicator handles all analysis automatically throughout the day.
Q: How often should I update strikes?
A: Rarely! Only when market moves 100+ points from initial ATM. Usually 0-2 times per day, even in volatile markets.
Q: Which Signal Mode is best?
A: Smart mode (default) for professional trading. Use Momentum for intraday scalping, Mean Reversion for premium selling.
Q: Can I use this for stock options?
A: No. The indicator is designed specifically for NSE index options (NIFTY and BANKNIFTY) with NSE format.
Q: Does it work on mobile?
A: Yes, but table display is optimized for desktop/tablet screens. Use "tiny" or "small" size on mobile.
Q: What if I see "-" in cells?
A: Check expiry format (YYMMDD), verify strikes match NSE strikes, and ensure market is open.
Q: What's the difference between โโ and โ?
A: โโ = Best match (lowest price difference), highest quality. โ = Good matches (top 3-5), reliable quality.
Q: Can I backtest this indicator?
A: The indicator shows live analysis. For backtesting options strategies, you'll need historical options data and separate backtesting tools.
Q: What does the info box show?
A: Bottom-left box shows key metrics: symbol, signal mode, spot price, ATM strike, best matched strikes, match difference, and C-P value.
Q: Why no chart plotting?
A: v1.0 focuses on clean table display with maximum information density. Chart plotting may be added in future versions based on user feedback.

Hybrid Strategy: Trend/ORB/MTFHybrid Strategy: Trend + ORB + Multi-Timeframe Matrix
This script is a comprehensive "Trading Manager" designed to filter out noise and identify high-probability breakout setups. It combines three powerful concepts into a single, clean chart interface: Trend Alignment, Opening Range Breakout (ORB), and Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis.
It is designed to prevent "analysis paralysis" by providing a unified Dashboard that confirms if the trend is aligned across 5 different timeframes before you take a trade.
How it Works
The strategy relies on the "Golden Trio" of confluence:
1. Trend Definition (The Setup) Before looking for entries, the script analyzes the immediate trend. A bullish trend is defined as:
Price is above the Session VWAP.
The fast EMA (9) is above the slow EMA (21). (The inverse applies for bearish trends).
2. The Signal (The Trigger) The script draws the Opening Range (default: first 15 minutes of the session).
Buy Signal: Price breaks above the Opening Range High while the Trend is Bullish.
Sell Signal: Price breaks below the Opening Range Low while the Trend is Bearish.
3. The Confirmation (The Filter) A signal is only valid if the Higher Timeframe (default: 60m) agrees with the direction. If the 1m chart says "Buy" but the 60m chart is bearish, the signal is filtered out to prevent false breakouts.
Key Features
The Matrix Dashboard A zero-lag, real-time table in the corner of your screen that monitors 5 user-defined timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m, 30m, 60m, 4H).
Trend: Checks if Price > EMA 21.
VWAP: Checks if Price > VWAP.
ORB: Checks if Price is currently above/below the Opening Range of that session.
D H/L: Warns if price is near the Daily High or Low.
PD H/L: Warns if price is near the Previous Daily High or Low.
Visual Order Blocks The script automatically identifies valid Order Blocks (sequences of consecutive candles followed by a strong explosive move).
Chart: Draws Green/Red zones extending to the right, showing where price may react.
Dashboard: Displays the exact High, Low, and Average price of the most recent Order Blocks for precision planning.
Risk Management (Trailing Stop) Once a trade is active, the script plots Chandelier Exit dots (ATR-based trailing stop) to help you manage the trade and lock in profits during trend runs.
Visual Guide (Chart Legend)
โฌ Gray Box: Represents the Opening Range (first 15 minutes). This is your "No Trade Zone." Wait for price to break out of this box.
๐ข Green Line: The Opening Range High. A break above this line signals potential Bullish momentum.
๐ด Red Line: The Opening Range Low. A break below this line signals potential Bearish momentum.
๐ข Green / ๐ด Red Zones (Boxes): These are Order Blocks.
๐ข Green Zone: A Bullish Order Block (Demand). Expect price to potentially bounce up from here.
๐ด Red Zone: A Bearish Order Block (Supply). Expect price to potentially reject down from here.
โช Dots (Trailing Stop):
๐ข Green Dots: These appear below price during a Bullish trend. They represent your suggested Stop Loss.
๐ด Red Dots: These appear above price during a Bearish trend.
๐ท๏ธ Buy / Sell Labels:
BUY: Triggers when Price breaks the Green Line + Trend is Bullish + HTF is Bullish.
SELL: Triggers when Price breaks the Red Line + Trend is Bearish + HTF is Bearish.
Settings
Session: Customizable RTH (Regular Trading Hours) to filter out pre-market noise.
Matrix Timeframes: 5 fixed slots to choose which timeframes you want to monitor.
Order Blocks: Adjust the sensitivity and lookback period for Order Block detection.
Risk: Customize the ATR multiplier for the trailing stop.

Kinetic Scalper [BULLBYTE]KINETIC SCALPER - ADVANCED MOMENTUM & CONFLUENCE TRADING SYSTEM
A SOPHISTICATED MULTI-FACTOR ANALYSIS INDICATOR FOR PRECISION ENTRIES
The Kinetic Scalper is a comprehensive trading analysis tool that combines volume-weighted momentum calculations, multi-oscillator divergence detection, and a proprietary 15-factor confluence scoring system to identify high-probability reversal setups across all timeframes.
WHAT MAKES THIS INDICATOR ORIGINAL
This is NOT a simple mashup of existing indicators.
The Kinetic Scalper features a completely custom momentum engine called the "Kinetic Pulse" - a volume-weighted momentum oscillator with Fisher Transform normalization that fundamentally differs from standard RSI or other momentum indicators. Every component feeds into a unified algorithmic framework designed specifically for this system.
KEY INNOVATIONS:
KINETIC PULSE ENGINE
Unlike standard RSI which uses simple price changes, the Kinetic Pulse applies:
โ Volume weighting to price movements (high-volume moves carry more weight)
โ EMA smoothing instead of traditional SMA (faster response to changes)
โ Fisher Transform normalization for improved signal clarity
โ Adaptive period adjustment based on current volatility regime
โ Result: A momentum oscillator that responds to conviction, not just price noise
15-FACTOR CONFLUENCE SCORING SYSTEM
Every signal is graded based on the number of confirming factors present:
โ Momentum position (oversold/overbought extremes)
โ Momentum velocity (direction change confirmation)
โ Momentum acceleration (strength of reversal)
โ Multi-oscillator divergence (price vs. 3 oscillators)
โ Volume confirmation (above-average participation)
โ Volume delta analysis (buying vs. selling pressure)
โ Higher timeframe alignment (trend confirmation from larger timeframe)
โ Session timing (major forex session awareness)
โ Structure clearance (clear path to profit targets)
โ Support/resistance proximity (confluence with key levels)
โ Market regime filtering (trending vs. choppy conditions)
Signals are graded A+, A, or B based on how many factors align:
โข CONSERVATIVE MODE: A+ requires 12+ factors, A requires 9+, B requires 7+
โข BALANCED MODE: A+ requires 10+ factors, A requires 7+, B requires 5+
โข AGGRESSIVE MODE: A+ requires 8+ factors, A requires 5+, B requires 3+
TRADE ANALYSIS STATE MACHINE
A sophisticated monitoring system that tracks trade conditions in real-time using:
โ 5-state analysis framework (Factors Aligned / Positive Bias / Mixed Signals / Factors Weakening / Negative Bias)
โ Hysteresis-based transitions (different thresholds to enter vs. exit states)
โ Confidence smoothing with EMA (reduces noise, prevents flip-flopping)
โ Minimum commitment periods before state changes
โ Override logic for significant events (near TP/SL, momentum reversals)
โ Result: Stable, actionable guidance that doesn't change on every bar
INSTRUMENT-AWARE CALIBRATION
Automatically detects what you're trading and applies optimized parameters:
โ Forex Majors: Standard ATR, high session weight
โ Forex Crosses: Tighter stops, moderate session weight
โ Crypto: Wider stops (1.8x multiplier), reduced session weight (24/7 markets)
โ Indices: Moderate-wide stops, high session weight
โ Commodities: Moderate stops, moderate session weight
WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES
The Kinetic Scalper is designed to identify high-confluence reversal opportunities by analyzing multiple dimensions of market behavior simultaneously.
CORE FUNCTIONS:
1. SIGNAL GENERATION
โ Identifies potential reversal points at oversold/overbought extremes
โ Confirms with multi-oscillator divergence detection
โ Validates with volume, higher timeframe, and structural analysis
โ Filters out low-probability setups automatically
โ Grades signals based on total confluence factors present
2. AUTOMATED TRADE TRACKING
โ Calculates structure-based or ATR-based stop loss levels
โ Projects take profit targets using risk-to-reward ratios
โ Monitors live position status (P/L, distance to targets, R-multiple)
โ Tracks TP1 and TP2 hits automatically
โ Displays outcome markers (TP HIT, PARTIAL WIN, STOPPED)
3. REAL-TIME CONDITION MONITORING
โ Analyzes 6 factor categories during active trades
โ Provides confidence scoring (0-100 scale)
โ Generates actionable guidance based on current market state
โ Alerts when conditions deteriorate or improve
โ Helps with trade management decisions
4. COMPREHENSIVE MARKET ANALYSIS
โ Session detection (Asian, London, New York, Overlap)
โ Volatility regime identification (Low, Normal, High, Extreme)
โ Trend state classification (Trending Up/Down, Ranging, Transitioning)
โ Volume analysis (relative volume and delta approximation)
โ Choppiness filtering (blocks signals in ranging markets)
WHY USE THIS INDICATOR
PROBLEM: Most momentum indicators generate too many false signals at extremes.
SOLUTION: The Kinetic Scalper requires MULTIPLE confirming factors before generating a signal, dramatically reducing noise and focusing on high-confluence setups.
ADVANTAGES:
โ QUALITY OVER QUANTITY
โ Signal grading ensures you can filter for only the highest-quality setups
โ A+ signals have 10-12+ confirming factors aligned
โ Cooldown periods prevent over-trading the same move
โ COMPLETE TRADE FRAMEWORK
โ Entry signals with confluence justification
โ Calculated stop loss based on market structure or ATR
โ Two profit targets with clear risk-to-reward ratios
โ Live trade monitoring with factor analysis
โ Outcome tracking and visual markers
โ ADAPTIVE TO MARKET CONDITIONS
โ Volatility-based period adjustment for momentum calculations
โ Instrument-specific ATR multipliers
โ Session awareness for forex traders
โ Higher timeframe trend filtering
โ Automatic regime detection (trending vs. choppy)
โ TRANSPARENT METHODOLOGY
โ Every input has detailed tooltips explaining its purpose
โ Signal tooltips show exactly why a signal was generated
โ Dashboard displays all relevant market conditions
โ Factor scores are visible during trades
โ No "black box" mystery calculations
โ NON-REPAINTING & RELIABLE
โ All signals use barstate.isconfirmed (only on closed bars)
โ Higher timeframe data uses lookahead_off with historical offset
โ No future data access or repainting behavior
โ What you see is what you get - signals don't disappear or move
HOW THE INDICATOR WORKS
SIGNAL GENERATION PROCESS:
STEP 1: MOMENTUM ANALYSIS
The Kinetic Pulse engine calculates volume-weighted momentum:
โ Price changes are weighted by volume ratio vs. 20-bar average
โ High-volume moves have more influence on the oscillator
โ Gains and losses are smoothed using EMA (not SMA like RSI)
โ Fisher Transform is applied for normalization to 0-100 scale
โ Result: Momentum reading that emphasizes conviction, not noise
STEP 2: REVERSAL DETECTION
The indicator looks for potential reversal conditions:
โ Kinetic Pulse reaching oversold zone (below dynamic lower threshold)
โ Momentum velocity turning positive after being negative (for longs)
โ OR bullish divergence detected on multiple oscillators
โ Price making lower lows while oscillators make higher lows = divergence
STEP 3: MULTI-OSCILLATOR DIVERGENCE CONFIRMATION
Divergence is validated across three sources:
โ Kinetic Pulse divergence
โ CCI divergence
โ Stochastic divergence
โ Multiple oscillators confirming divergence increases signal reliability
STEP 4: CONFLUENCE FACTOR SCORING
The system evaluates all 15 possible confirming factors:
โ Momentum position: Is pulse oversold/overbought? (+0 to +2 points)
โ Momentum direction: Is velocity reversing? (+0 to +2 points)
โ Momentum acceleration: Is reversal strengthening? (+0 to +1 point)
โ Divergence count: How many oscillators show divergence? (+0 to +2 points)
โ Volume strength: Is volume above 1.3x average? (+0 to +1 point)
โ Volume delta: Is cumulative delta positive/negative? (+0 to +1 point)
โ HTF alignment: Does higher timeframe support direction? (+0 to +2 points)
โ Session timing: Is it a prime trading session? (+0 to +1 point)
โ Clear air: Is path to targets clear of obstacles? (+0 to +1 point)
โ Structure confluence: Are we near support/resistance? (+0 to +1 point)
โ Market regime: Is market trending, not choppy? (+0 to +1 point)
Total possible score: 15 points
Minimum for signal: 3-12 points depending on sensitivity mode
STEP 5: FILTER VALIDATION
Before generating a signal, additional checks are performed:
โ Volume must be above minimum threshold (if filter enabled)
โ Higher timeframe must not oppose the signal direction (if filter enabled)
โ Target path must be clear of major resistance/support (if filter enabled)
โ Volatility must not be EXTREME (blocks signals in chaos)
โ Risk-to-reward ratio must meet minimum requirement
โ Cooldown period must have elapsed since last signal
STEP 6: SIGNAL GRADING
If all filters pass, the signal is graded based on score:
โ A+ Grade: Highest confluence (8-12+ factors depending on sensitivity)
โ A Grade: High confluence (5-9+ factors)
โ B Grade: Moderate confluence (3-7+ factors)
Only graded signals (A+, A, or B) are displayed.
STEP 7: TRADE LEVEL CALCULATION
Stop loss and targets are calculated automatically:
STOP LOSS METHODS:
โข Structure-Based: Uses recent swing low/high with ATR buffer, constrained by min/max ATR limits
โข ATR-Based: Pure ATR multiplier with min/max constraints
โข Fixed ATR: Simple ATR multiplier, no adjustments
TARGET CALCULATION:
โข TP1: Entry ยฑ (Stop Distance ร Target 1 R:R)
โข TP2: Entry ยฑ (Stop Distance ร Target 2 R:R)
โข Default: TP1 at 1.0 R:R (1:1), TP2 at 2.0 R:R (1:2)
STEP 8: TRADE MONITORING
Once a signal is taken, the indicator tracks:
โ Current P/L in ticks and R-multiples
โ Distance to each target in ATR units
โ Distance to stop loss in ATR units
โ TP1 hit detection (marks with label, updates lines)
โ TP2 hit detection (closes trade, marks outcome)
โ Stop loss hit detection (closes trade, differentiates partial vs. full loss)
STEP 9: FACTOR ANALYSIS (DURING TRADES)
The Trade Analysis Panel monitors 6 key factor categories:
โ Momentum: Is momentum still aligned with trade direction? (-15 to +15 pts)
โ Position: Current R-multiple position (-12 to +12 pts)
โ Volume: Is volume still supportive? (-6 to +6 pts)
โ HTF Alignment: Does HTF still support trade? (-6 to +8 pts)
โ Target Proximity: How close are we to targets? (0 to +10 pts)
โ Stop Proximity: Are we dangerously close to stop? (-15 to +3 pts)
Raw scores are summed and smoothed using 5-bar EMA to create Confidence Score (0-100).
STEP 10: STATE MACHINE TRANSITIONS
Based on smoothed confidence, the system transitions between 5 states:
โ FACTORS ALIGNED (72+): Everything looks good
โ POSITIVE BIAS (58-72): Conditions favorable
โ MIXED SIGNALS (48-58): Neutral conditions
โ FACTORS WEAKENING (22-48): Concerning signals
โ NEGATIVE BIAS (<22): Poor conditions
Hysteresis prevents rapid flipping between states (different entry/exit thresholds).

USAGE TIPS & BEST PRACTICES
SIGNAL SELECTION:
โ GRADE MATTERS
โ A+ signals have statistically more confluence factors
โ If you're conservative, trade only A+ signals
โ B signals can work but require more discretion
โ CONFLUENCE WITH YOUR ANALYSIS
โ Use this indicator as CONFIRMATION, not sole decision criteria
โ Combine with your own support/resistance analysis
โ Check for fundamental events (news, economic data)
โ Respect major round numbers and psychological levels
โ SESSION TIMING (Forex)
โ Best signals often occur during London/NY overlap
โ Avoid signals 10 minutes before major news releases
โ Asian session signals can be valid but lower liquidity
โ TIMEFRAME CONFLUENCE
โ If you get an A+ signal on 15m, check if 1H chart agrees
โ Higher timeframe confirmation adds conviction
โ Avoid signals that oppose the daily/4H trend
TRADE MANAGEMENT:
โ POSITION SIZING
โ ALWAYS size positions so stop loss = 1-2% of account
โ Never risk more than you can afford to lose
โ Smaller position on B signals, standard on A, larger on A+ (within limits)
โ PARTIAL PROFIT TAKING
โ Consider taking 50% off at TP1
โ Move stop to breakeven after TP1 hit
โ Let remaining position run to TP2
โ TRAILING STOPS
โ The indicator doesn't auto-trail stops (manual decision)
โ After TP1, you might manually move stop to entry (breakeven)
โ Consider ATR-based trailing stop for runners
โ WATCH THE ANALYSIS PANEL
โ If state changes to "Factors Weakening" while in profit, consider exit
โ "Negative Bias" during a trade is a strong warning
โ "Factors Aligned" confirms your trade thesis is still valid
RISK MANAGEMENT:
โ NEVER IGNORE STOPS
โ The calculated stop is there for a reason
โ Moving stop further away increases risk exponentially
โ If stopped out, accept it and wait for next setup
โ AVOID REVENGE TRADING
โ If you get stopped out, resist urge to immediately re-enter
โ Signal cooldown helps with this
โ Wait for next qualified signal
โ RESPECT VOLATILITY WARNINGS
โ If indicator shows "EXTREME" volatility, signals are blocked for a reason
โ Don't force trades in chaotic conditions
โ Wait for regime to normalize
โ CORRELATION RISK
โ Be aware of correlation if trading multiple pairs
โ EUR/USD and GBP/USD are highly correlated
โ Don't stack risk on correlated instruments
OPTIMIZATION:
โ START WITH DEFAULTS
โ Default settings are well-tested
โ Don't over-optimize for recent market behavior
โ Give settings at least 20-30 trades before judging
โ TIMEFRAME-SPECIFIC ADJUSTMENTS
โ Lower timeframes: Consider increasing Signal Distance to 3.0-4.0
โ Higher timeframes: ATR Stop Multiplier might go to 2.0-2.5
โ Crypto: Ensure Instrument Type is set to "Crypto" for proper stops
โ SENSITIVITY CALIBRATION
โ Too many signals? Switch to Conservative
โ Missing good setups? Try Balanced or Aggressive
โ Quality > Quantity always
โ KEEP A JOURNAL
โ Track which signal grades work best for you
โ Note which sessions produce best results
โ Review stopped trades for patterns
THINGS TO AVOID:
โ DON'T chase signals after several bars have passed
โ DON'T ignore the stop loss or move it further away
โ DON'T overtrade by taking every B-grade signal
โ DON'T trade during major news if you're not experienced
โ DON'T use this as your only analysis tool
โ DON'T expect 100% win rate (no indicator has this)
โ DON'T risk more than 1-2% per trade regardless of signal grade
UNDERSTANDING THE METHODOLOGY
WHY VOLUME WEIGHTING?
Traditional momentum oscillators treat all price moves equally. A 10-point move on low volume is weighted the same as a 10-point move on high volume.
The Kinetic Pulse corrects this by:
โ Calculating volume ratio vs. 20-bar average
โ Applying square root transformation to volume ratio (prevents extreme weights)
โ Multiplying price changes by volume weight
โ Result: High-volume moves influence the oscillator more than low-volume noise
This helps filter false breakouts and emphasizes moves with participation.
WHY FISHER TRANSFORM?
Fisher Transform is a mathematical transformation that:
โ Normalizes probability distributions
โ Creates sharper turning points
โ Amplifies extremes while compressing the middle
โ Makes overbought/oversold levels more distinct
Applied to the Kinetic Pulse, it helps identify genuine extremes vs. noise.
WHY MULTI-OSCILLATOR DIVERGENCE?
Single-source divergence can give false signals. By requiring divergence confirmation across multiple oscillators (Kinetic Pulse, CCI, Stochastic), the system filters out:
โ Divergences caused by calculation quirks in one oscillator
โ Temporary momentum anomalies
โ False divergence on noisy, low-timeframe charts
Multiple sources confirming the same pattern increases reliability.
WHY ADAPTIVE PERIODS?
Fixed periods can be:
โ Too slow during high volatility (miss fast reversals)
โ Too fast during low volatility (generate noise)
The adaptive system:
โ Shortens period when ATR ratio > 1.3 (high volatility = need faster response)
โ Lengthens period when ATR ratio < 0.7 (low volatility = need noise filtering)
โ Keeps period in reasonable range (60% to 140% of base period)
โ Result: Oscillator adjusts to current market pace automatically
WHY HYSTERESIS IN STATE MACHINE?
Without hysteresis, the analysis state would flip-flop on every bar, creating:
โ Confusing, contradictory guidance
โ Analysis paralysis
โ Lack of actionable information
Hysteresis solves this by:
โ Using different thresholds to ENTER vs. EXIT a state
โ Example: Enter "Factors Aligned" at 72+ confidence, but don't exit until <62
โ This creates stable states that persist through minor fluctuations
โ Requires minimum commitment period (3 bars) before state changes
โ Overrides commitment for significant events (near TP/SL)
โ Result: Stable, trustworthy analysis that changes only when truly warranted
WHY CONFIDENCE SMOOTHING?
Raw factor scores fluctuate bar-by-bar based on momentary conditions. Smoothing:
โ Uses 5-period EMA on raw confidence scores
โ Filters out single-bar anomalies
โ Preserves genuine trends in confidence
โ Prevents false state transitions
โ Result: More reliable assessment of actual trade health
WHY INSTRUMENT-SPECIFIC PARAMETERS?
Different instruments have different characteristics:
โ Forex is highly liquid, respects technical levels well, standard ATR works
โ Crypto is extremely volatile, needs wider stops (1.8x) to avoid false stops
โ Indices respect session opens strongly, session weighting is important
โ Commodities fall in between
Auto-detection applies research-based multipliers automatically.
WHY STRUCTURE-BASED STOPS?
ATR-based stops can:
โ Place stop in middle of consolidation (easily hit)
โ Ignore obvious invalidation levels
โ Be too tight during expansion or too wide during contraction
Structure-based stops:
โ Use actual swing highs/lows (where traders actually place stops)
โ Add small ATR buffer to avoid stop hunting
โ Constrain within min/max ATR limits for safety
โ Result: Stops that respect market geometry while managing risk

Trading Module [BackQuant]Trading Module
A modular overlay that lets you combine three core components, a Trend Model, an Impulse Model, and an optional Stop Loss framework, then layer in a multi-symbol RSI screener plus a full price action toolkit (market structure, FVGs, order blocks, volumetric S/R). Built for discretionary execution and study, not for blind automation.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
What this script is
This indicator is designed like a โmodule pickerโ. Instead of forcing one opinionated system, it gives you selectable models that can be combined into a workflow:
1) Trend Model , answers โwhat side is the market biased to?โ
2) Impulse Model , answers โis there currently expansion, pressure, or a momentum event worth paying attention to?โ
3) Stop Loss Layer , answers โwhere are reasonable invalidation zones if Iโm managing risk manually?โ
4) RSI Screener , answers โwhat are my watchlist assets doing right now, on multiple timeframes, in one place?โ
5) Price Action Concepts , answers โwhat structure levels, imbalances, institutional zones, and volume-based levels matter?โ
You can run it as a lightweight overlay (trend + impulse only), or turn on the heavier price action stack when you want deeper context.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
How to use it, the intended workflow
Step 1, pick your Trend Model
The trend model is your baseline directional filter. It is meant to reduce โrandom tradingโ by keeping you aligned with the dominant structure or momentum bias.
Trend Models (examples)
Typical usage:
- If the trend model reads bullish, you focus on long setups and avoid shorting into strength.
- If the trend model reads bearish, you focus on short setups and avoid catching bottoms.
- If the trend model is neutral or mixed, you reduce size or wait for confirmation.
What you can expect from the options (without exposing internal weighting or thresholds):
- Universal Trend+ , a composite trend regime model that blends multiple families of trend evidence. It is designed to be more robust than a single indicator and reduce โone-indicator failure modesโ.
- EMA Cross , a classic fast vs slow trend bias. Simple, responsive, but can whipsaw in ranges.
- DEMA ATR , a smoother trend anchor that adapts to volatility. Often cleaner in chop than basic crosses.
- Relative Strength Overlay , a strength scoring style bias built from an RSI-style internal scoring process. Useful when you want โstrength stateโ more than โmoving average stateโ.
Color conventions:
- Long color and short color are user-defined, so you can keep consistent visuals across your BackQuant suite.
Step 2, pick your Impulse Model
Impulse is separate from trend on purpose. Trend answers direction, impulse answers timing. A market can be trending but not currently impulsing, or impulsing in a counter-trend squeeze.
Impulse Models (examples)
How to use impulse signals:
- Treat impulse as โpermissionโ to engage, not as a standalone trade trigger.
- Best pairing is trend aligned impulse, meaning bullish trend model plus bullish impulse, bearish plus bearish.
- Counter-trend impulses can be used as warning signals, take-profit cues, or short-lived mean reversion opportunities, depending on your style.
The impulse options in this module are built around pressure and expansion detection. They are meant to identify moments where conditions shift from โnoiseโ to โinitiative activityโ.
Step 3, choose a Stop Loss framework
This script includes optional stop visualization modes. These are not meant to be blindly used as a โone true stopโ, they are tools for structuring invalidation around volatility or defined percentage bands.
Stop Loss (examples)
Stop loss options:
- None , no overlay.
- Dynamic , a volatility-aware band. Useful when you want stops to widen in high vol and tighten in low vol.
- Fixed , preset percentage bands. Useful for quick structure around risk units, scaling, or rule-based journaling.
- Bar-to-Bar , a micro-structure invalidation reference that uses the prior bar as a risk anchor. Useful for very tight management and fast invalidation.
How to apply them properly:
- Stops should be placed where the trade idea is wrong, not where you โfeel painโ.
- A volatility stop is usually an environment stop, while a fixed stop is usually a plan stop.
- If you use impulses for entries, your stop should account for impulse volatility, otherwise you get stopped on the exact move youโre trying to capture.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
RSI Screener module
This module is built for scanning multiple symbols and timeframes from one chart, without switching tabs.
RSI Screener (example)
What it does:
- Lets you define up to 10 symbols (defaults to major crypto pairs).
- Each slot can have its own timeframe.
- Computes an RSI value per symbol and assigns a directional state relative to a midline threshold.
- Displays a stacked overlay readout using a monospace label style for quick scanning.
How to use it:
- Set slots 1โ5 as your majors, 6โ10 as your rotation candidates.
- Use higher timeframes for regime, lower timeframes for timing.
- Use the midline threshold as a โtrend biasโ line, not an overbought or oversold line.
- Treat the screener as context, not a signal. Your chart model and price action still decide the trade.
Performance note:
- Screeners are heavy by nature because each symbol is a security() request. Keep the number of enabled slots reasonable if you are on lower-end hardware or running many scripts.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
Price Action Concepts and Market Structure stack
This script includes a full price action toolkit intended to provide โwhereโ context, levels, zones, and structural breaks, so the trend and impulse models are not operating in a vacuum.
Price Action Concepts / Market Structure (example)
This section is split into five major blocks:
1) Market Structure, Swing and Internal
You can enable swing structure and internal structure separately, with independent lookbacks.
- Swing structure tracks larger, slower pivots, better for macro trend structure.
- Internal structure tracks tighter pivots, better for entry timing and micro shifts.
It prints structure events as:
- BOS (Break of Structure), continuation-style break.
- MSB (Market Structure Break), shift-style break. Some traders call this CHoCH, here itโs presented as an MSB concept.
Usage:
- Swing BOS is good for confirming a larger regime.
- Internal structure is good for timing entries within the swing context.
- If internal flips but swing does not, treat it as a warning, not necessarily a full reversal.
2) Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Optional imbalance boxes that highlight displacement zones.
Key controls:
- Timeframe selection (or current timeframe).
- How many to keep on chart.
- How far to extend them right.
Usage:
- FVGs are best treated as โareas of interestโ, not guaranteed support/resistance.
- They help you frame where price might rebalance after an impulse event.
3) Order Blocks (OB)
Optional institutional-style zones detected from structure and candle logic, with filters.
Key controls:
- Fractal type (3 or 5) changes how โstrictโ structure detection is.
- Break method (close vs high/low) changes confirmation strictness.
- Optional filter with FVG distance to reduce low-quality blocks.
- Extend, delete-when-filled, and label options for chart hygiene.
Usage:
- OBs are strongest when aligned with swing context and confirmed by volume or displacement.
- Filled blocks are informational, they can be removed to reduce clutter.
4) Volumetric Support and Resistance
This module creates support and resistance โzonesโ based on high-volume pivot events, then manages them over time.
Key controls:
- Detection sensitivity, volume multiplier, and lookback period.
- Minimum distance between zones to avoid stacking duplicates.
- Remove broken, extend, and volume display toggles.
How to interpret:
- Levels are thicker zones, not single price lines.
- โTouchesโ are tracked as an interaction count, useful for identifying repeatedly defended or attacked zones.
- High-volume zones are visually emphasized, these tend to matter more than low volume pivots.
Usage:
- Pair volumetric levels with impulse signals, an impulse into a high-volume resistance zone is not the same as an impulse in open space.
- Use volumetric levels as structure anchors for invalidation and targets.
5) Alerts
The price action stack includes alerts for new levels, touches, breaks, and order block creation or interaction.
Use alerts for:
- Watchlist management, you get notified when price hits an area.
- Avoiding screen-watching, especially when you run multi-timeframe setups.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
Core philosophy of the module
This indicator is not โone model to rule them allโ. It is meant to let you build a trading process:
- Trend decides bias.
- Impulse decides engagement timing.
- Price action decides location and structure.
- Stops decide risk containment.
- Screener decides where to look.
If you only use one layer, you are throwing away most of the edge this style of framework is designed to create. The strength is in confluence and filtering.

Notes and limitations
- This is a heavy script when multiple modules are enabled, because it draws objects and can request multiple symbols.
- The models are designed to be modular, so not every combination will be optimal for every market or timeframe.

End note
This is intended as a full visual decision-support module for discretionary traders who want trend, timing, structure, and watchlist scanning in one place. Use it to build a repeatable process, then validate that process with proper testing and journaling before risking real capital.
COT Index by thedatalayers.comThe COT Index transforms the weekly COT net positions of Commercial traders into a normalized mathematical model.
Instead of displaying raw net positioning, the COT Index processes the data through a cyclical normalization algorithm (commonly using a 26-week or alternatively a 52-week cycle).
This makes it easier to identify bullish or bearish extremes in Commercial activity.
The index is plotted as a color-coded line:
โข Green Zone - Commercials are mathematically classified as bullish.
Historically, bullish Commercial positioning often aligns with upward market pressure.
โข Red Zone - Commercials are mathematically classified as bearish.
This typically corresponds with increased downward pressure in the underlying market.
โข Neutral Zone - Neither bull nor bear dominance; positioning is mid-range.
Since COT data is published only once per week and the COT Index is built on cyclical multi-week analysis, the indicator is intended to be used exclusively on the weekly timeframe.
Using lower timeframes will not reflect the structure of the data accurately.
The selected cycle length (typically 26 weeks, optionally 52 weeks) determines how net positions are compared and normalized, and can influence how quickly extreme zones appear.
The COT Index provides an objective way to interpret Commercial trader sentiment and to identify potential directional bias in the market.

---
## CONFLUENCE SYSTEM
### How It Works
The system scores each potential entry on 5 factors. More factors aligning = higher probability.
### Confluence Requirements by Regime
**Trending Regimes** (strictest):
- Minimum 2/5 required
- 3/5 = Good
- 4-5/5 = Excellent
**Ranging Regimes** (moderate):
- Minimum 1-2/5 required
- 2/5 = Good
- 3+/5 = Excellent
**Consolidation** (breakout only):
- Volume is most critical
- Direction confirmation
- Less confluence needed
### Adjusting Minimum Confluence
**If too few signals:**
- Lower from 2 to 1
- More trades, lower quality
**If too many false signals:**
- Raise from 2 to 3
- Fewer trades, higher quality
**Recommendation:**
- Start at 2
- Adjust based on win rate
- Aim for 55-65% win rate

A: Depends on timeframe and settings. Daily chart: 5-15 trades/month. 4H chart: 15-30 trades/month.
**Q: What's a good win rate?**
A: 55-65% is excellent. 50-55% is good. Below 50% needs adjustment.
**Q: Should I trade all regimes?**
A: Beginners: Only trending. Intermediate: Trending + ranging. Advanced: All except chaos.
**Q: Can I use this on any timeframe?**

SMT (ICT Concepts)Overview
Smart Money Technique (SMT) Divergence is a price action analysis method derived from Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology. This indicator automatically detects SMT divergences by comparing price movements across correlated financial instruments, identifying moments when assets that typically move together begin to diverge - a phenomenon often associated with potential price reversals.
An SMT divergence occurs when one instrument makes a new swing high or low while a correlated instrument fails to confirm that move. This failure to confirm suggests that the instrument may be positioning for a reversal, as the divergence indicates a lack of conviction in the current price direction across related markets.
Theoretical Foundation
What is SMT Divergence?
In correlated markets, instruments tend to move in tandem. For example, the E-mini S&P 500 (ES) and E-mini Nasdaq 100 (NQ) futures typically make swing highs and lows together due to their shared exposure to U.S. equity markets. When this correlation breaks down at key swing points, it creates an SMT divergence.
Bullish SMT Divergence:
The chart instrument creates a lower low compared to a previous swing low, while the correlated comparison instrument creates a higher low (or fails to make a lower low). This divergence at the lows suggests potential buying pressure and a possible bullish reversal.
Bearish SMT Divergence:
The chart instrument creates a higher high compared to a previous swing high, while the correlated comparison instrument creates a lower high (or fails to make a higher high). This divergence at the highs suggests potential selling pressure and a possible bearish reversal.
Why SMT Divergences Matter
SMT divergences are considered significant because they may indicate:
Accumulation or distribution occurring in one instrument but not the other
Relative strength or weakness between correlated assets
Potential exhaustion of the current trend
Early warning signs before major reversals
Indicator Features
Multi-Timeframe SMT Detection
This indicator provides simultaneous SMT detection on two timeframes:
Current Timeframe (CTF) Detection:
The indicator scans for SMT divergences on the chart's active timeframe using multiple pivot lookback periods (3, 5, 8, 13, 21, and 34 bars). This multi-period approach ensures detection of both short-term and intermediate swing points, reducing the likelihood of missing valid divergences while filtering out noise.
Higher Timeframe (HTF) Detection:
Simultaneously, the indicator monitors a higher timeframe for SMT divergences using pivot periods of 3, 5, 8, 13, and 21 HTF candles. Higher timeframe signals generally carry more significance as they represent larger market structure.
Automatic Timeframe Pairing:
When enabled, the indicator automatically selects an appropriate higher timeframe based on your chart's current timeframe:
Sub-1 minute charts pair with 5-minute
1-2 minute charts pair with 15-minute
3-4 minute charts pair with 30-minute
5 minute charts pair with 1-hour
6-9 minute charts pair with 1-hour
15 minute charts pair with 4-hour
16-59 minute charts pair with Daily
1-4 hour charts pair with Weekly
Daily charts pair with Monthly
Combined Signal Detection:
When an SMT divergence is detected on both the current timeframe and higher timeframe at the same price pivots, the indicator combines these into a single enhanced signal. Combined signals display both timeframes in the label and use the higher timeframe styling to emphasize their increased significance.
Automatic Symbol Correlation
The indicator includes comprehensive automatic symbol selection based on the instrument you are viewing. When Auto SMT is enabled, the indicator intelligently selects correlated comparison symbols.

Three-Symbol Comparison
The indicator supports comparison against up to three symbols simultaneously. When multiple comparison symbols show divergence at the same pivot point, all diverging symbols are displayed in the label, providing stronger confluence. For example, if NQ shows divergence with both ES and YM at the same swing high, the label will display "ES1! + YM1!" indicating divergence confirmation from multiple correlated instruments.
Invalidation Logic
SMT divergences are not indefinitely valid. The indicator includes automatic invalidation logic based on price action following the divergence signal.
Invalidation Rules:
Bearish SMT: Invalidates when price trades above the high of the confirmation pivot (right side of the divergence)
Bullish SMT: Invalidates when price trades below the low of the confirmation pivot (right side of the divergence)
The invalidation level is set at the confirmation bar (the second pivot that completes the SMT pattern), not the extreme of both pivots. This approach aligns with the concept that once price exceeds the confirmation point, the divergence setup is no longer valid.
Invalidation Display Options:
Users can choose to show or hide invalidated SMT signals separately for current timeframe and higher timeframe divergences. When shown, invalidated signals can be displayed with different line styles and widths to visually distinguish them from active signals. Separate limits prevent excessive invalidated signals from cluttering the chart (maximum 15 invalidated signals per timeframe type).

Visual Representation
Line Display
SMT divergences are displayed as lines connecting the two pivot points that form the divergence:
For bearish SMT: A line connects the previous swing high to the current (higher) swing high
For bullish SMT: A line connects the previous swing low to the current (lower) swing low
The line color indicates the divergence type (bullish or bearish) and whether it was detected on the current timeframe or higher timeframe.
Label Display
Labels are positioned at the midpoint of the SMT line and display:
The timeframe on which the divergence was detected
The symbol(s) that showed divergence with the chart instrument
When using the "+/-" label style, labels show only "+" for bullish or "-" for bearish divergences, with full information accessible via hover tooltip.
All labels use monospace font formatting for consistent visual appearance.
Combined Signals
When the same divergence is detected on both current and higher timeframes, the signals are combined into a single display using higher timeframe styling. The label shows both timeframes (e.g., "M2 + M15") and all diverging symbols, indicating strong multi-timeframe confluence.
Practical Application Guidelines
Signal Interpretation
SMT divergences should be interpreted within the broader market context. Consider the following when evaluating signals:
Market Structure: SMT divergences occurring at key structural levels (previous highs/lows, order blocks, fair value gaps) tend to be more significant.
Timeframe Confluence: Signals appearing on multiple timeframes simultaneously suggest stronger institutional involvement.
Symbol Confluence: Divergences confirmed by multiple comparison symbols indicate broader market disagreement with the current price direction.
Time of Day: SMT divergences during high-volume trading sessions may carry more weight than those during low-liquidity periods.
Limitations and Considerations
Correlation Variability: Correlations between instruments can strengthen or weaken over time. The automatic symbol selection is based on typical correlations but may not always reflect current market conditions.
Pivot Detection Lag: Pivots are only confirmed after subsequent price action, meaning SMT signals appear with some delay after the actual swing point forms.
False Signals: Not all SMT divergences result in reversals. Use additional confirmation methods and proper risk management.
Data Requirements: The indicator requires sufficient historical data and may not function properly on instruments with limited price history.
Technical Notes
The indicator uses multiple pivot detection periods to identify swing points across different scales
Higher timeframe candle tracking is performed on the lower timeframe chart for precise pivot bar indexing
A deduplication system prevents the same divergence from being detected multiple times across different pivot periods
Array-based storage manages active and invalidated SMT signals with automatic cleanup to prevent memory issues
Maximum label and line counts are set to 500 each to accommodate extended analysis periods
Disclaimer
This indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It is designed to assist traders in identifying potential SMT divergences based on historical price data and should not be considered as financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any financial instrument.
Trading financial markets involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Past performance of any trading methodology, including concepts discussed in this indicator, does not guarantee future results. Users should conduct their own research and analysis before making any trading decisions.
The automatic symbol correlations and sector mappings are based on general market relationships and may not accurately reflect current or future correlations. Users are encouraged to verify correlations independently and adjust comparison symbols as needed.
Always use appropriate risk management techniques, including but not limited to position sizing and stop-loss orders. Never risk more capital than you can afford to lose.
Relative Volume Bollinger Band %
The Relative Volume Bollinger Band % indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders seeking insights into volume, Bollinger band and relative strength dynamics. This indicator assesses the deviation of a security's trading volume relative to the Bollinger band % indicator and the RSI moving average. Together, these shed light on potential zones of interests where market shifts have a high probability of occurring.
Key Features:
Period: Tailor the indicator's sensitivity by adjusting the period of the smooth moving average and/or the period of the Bollinger band.
How it Works:
Moving Average Calculation: The script computes the simple moving average (SMA) of the relative strength over a defined period. When the higher SMA (orange line) is in the top grey zone, the security is in a zone where it has a high probability of becoming bullish. When the higher SMA is in the lower grey zone, the security is in a zone where it has a high probability of becoming bearish.
-Bollinger Band %: The script also computes the BB% which is primarily used to confirm overbought and oversold areas. When overbought, it turns white and remains white until the overbuying pressure is released indicating that the security is about to become bearish. The script indicates a bearish reversal when the BB% and RVOL bars are both red or when there are no more yellow RVOL bars, if present. When the BB% is<0 and rising, it will also appear white with yellow RVOL bars above. This is a good indication that bulls are beginning to enter buying positions. Confirmation here is indicated when the yellow RVOL bars change to green.
Relative Volume: The indicator then also normalizes the difference volume to indicate areas of high and low volatility. This shows where higher than normal volumes are being traded and can be used as a good indication of when to enter or exit a trade when the above criterions are met.
Visual Representation: The result is visually represented on the chart using columns. Bright green columns signify bullish relative volume values that are much greater than normal. Green columns signify bullish relative volume values that are significant. Red columns represent bearish values that are significant. Blue columns on the BB% indicator represent significant bullish buying in overbought areas. Red columns on the BB% indicator that are < 0 represent a bearish trend that is in an oversold area. This is there to prevent early entry into the market.
Enhancements:
Areas of Interest: Optionally, Areas of interest are represented by red, yellow and green circles on the higher SMA line, aiding in the identification of significant deviations.
ICT Bias (Dynamic Timeframe By Hayk Trading)This indicator designed to offer context, not signals, helping traders stay aligned with the broader directional flow of the market.
Bias States:
Bullish: Market conditions favor higher prices during the trading day.
Bearish: Market conditions favor lower prices during the trading day.
Neutral: No clear directional advantage is present.
This tool is intended to support:
Directional filtering for intraday trading
Improved trade discipline
Reduced overtrading in unfavorable conditions
The Daily Bias does not predict price, provide entries, or guarantee outcomes. It simply highlights the prevailing directional environment for the session.
Use it as a decision-support tool, not as a standalone trading system.

- Multiple tests of same level (level weakening)
- Low volume/choppy market
- News events pending
### Risk Management Rules
1. **Never risk more than 1-2% per trade**
2. **Always use stop loss** - place beyond the level
3. **Wait for candle close** - don't enter on wick touches
4. **Respect the cooldown** - avoid overtrading
5. **Consider the trend** - counter-trend reversals are riskier
---
## ๐ Alerts
The indicator includes built-in alerts:
| Alert | Trigger |

MACD Nexus Pro [OXE]MACD Nexus Pro
Institutional-Grade Momentum Intelligence System
Transform How You Read Market Momentum
Standard MACD indicators show you what happened. MACD Nexus Pro shows you what's about to happen.
Built for serious traders who demand more than basic crossovers, this indicator combines 8 proprietary analysis engines into one powerful momentum intelligence system. Whether you trade forex, crypto, stocks, or commodities โ MACD Nexus Pro gives you the institutional edge.
What Makes This Different?
Most MACD indicators are stuck in the 1970s. They show you two lines, a histogram, and leave you guessing. MACD Nexus Pro was engineered from the ground up to answer the questions professional traders actually ask:
"Is this signal confirmed across multiple timeframes?"
"Is this momentum move real or a fake-out?"
"Are smart money players accumulating or distributing?"
"Is this trend exhausted or just getting started?"
Core Benefits for Traders
๐ฏ Eliminate False Signals with MTF Confluence
Stop getting chopped up by single-timeframe noise. The Multi-Timeframe Confluence Matrix scans 4 timeframes simultaneously and calculates a unified alignment score from -5 to +5.
How it helps you:
Only take trades when multiple timeframes agree
See instantly if higher timeframes support your entry
Avoid counter-trend trades that fail 80% of the time
Build confidence knowing the "big picture" backs your trade
๐ Know Your Market Regime Instantly
Markets behave differently in trending vs ranging conditions. The Regime Detection Engine automatically classifies current conditions as TRENDING, VOLATILE, RANGING, or NEUTRAL.
How it helps you:
Adjust your strategy to match market conditions
Avoid momentum trades in choppy, ranging markets
Capitalize on trending markets with confidence
Stop forcing trades when conditions don't favor your style
๐ Catch Reversals Early with Smart Divergence Detection
Divergences signal potential reversals before they happen โ but spotting them manually is tedious and error-prone. The Divergence Engine automatically detects both Regular and Hidden divergences, then rates their strength.
How it helps you:
Get early warning of trend exhaustion
Find high-probability reversal entries
Use Hidden divergences for trend continuation trades
Prioritize strong divergences (โ
โ
โ
โ
) over weak ones
๐ฆ Trade Alongside Smart Money
Institutional players leave footprints. The Smart Money Momentum Zones detect when volume-weighted momentum enters extreme territory โ signaling potential accumulation (buying) or distribution (selling) by large players.
How it helps you:
Identify where institutions are likely positioning
Buy in accumulation zones with smart money
Sell or short in distribution zones
Avoid buying into institutional selling
โก Distinguish Impulse Moves from Corrections
Not all momentum is created equal. The Impulse Wave Detection system identifies whether current momentum is an impulse (strong, directional) or a correction (weak, counter-trend).
How it helps you:
Enter on impulses, not corrections
Hold winners through corrections without panic
Recognize when a trend is resuming
Time entries at the start of new momentum waves
๐ Never Miss True Equilibrium
Static zero lines are outdated. The Dynamic Zero Line adapts to the market's true momentum equilibrium, shifting based on long-term bias.
How it helps you:
Understand the market's real neutral point
Recognize bullish/bearish bias at a glance
Better time zero-line crossover trades
Filter signals based on positioning above/below equilibrium
โ ๏ธ Get Warned Before Momentum Dies
Chasing extended moves is how traders lose money. The Momentum Exhaustion Detector calculates the thrust-to-follow-through ratio and warns you when momentum is overextended.
How it helps you:
Avoid late entries into tired trends
Take profits before reversals hit
Spot when bulls/bears are running out of steam
Stay patient for better entries after exhaustion
๐ Read Momentum Strength at a Glance
The Gradient Histogram Heatmap shows momentum acceleration through color intensity โ brighter colors mean momentum is building, faded colors mean it's dying.
How it helps you:
Instantly see if momentum is accelerating or fading
Confirm breakouts with strengthening momentum
Spot weakening moves before price confirms
Make faster decisions with visual clarity
The Signal System You Can Trust
Every buy/sell signal comes with a Star Rating (โ
to โ
โ
โ
โ
โ
) based on:
Multi-timeframe alignment
Position relative to dynamic zero
Market regime confirmation
Volume confirmation
Exhaustion status
Choose your signal mode:
Standard: Classic MACD crossovers
Confluence: Only signals with MTF agreement (recommended)
Aggressive: Early entries with directional confluence
All signals are 100% non-repainting โ what you see is what happened, permanently.

What Traders Are Saying
"Finally, a MACD that tells me more than just 'line crossed line.' The exhaustion warnings alone have saved me from so many bad trades."
"The MTF confluence is a game-changer. I only trade 4+ star setups now and my win rate has never been better."
"I love how the regime detection stops me from forcing momentum trades in ranging markets. Should have had this years ago."

Structure Pivot (LL-HL / HH-LH)Structure Pivot (LL-HL / HH-LH) - Indicator Guide
This indicator scans for market structure pivot patternsโspecifically the bullish Higher Low (LLโHL) and the bearish Lower High (HHโLH) โacross multiple lengths simultaneously.
It automatically selects the most optimal pattern based on a "Priority Mode" and plots the structure and breakout/breakdown levels on the chart.
1. Basic Calculation Method
The indicator builds upon TradingViewโs ta.pivotlow and ta.pivothigh functions to identify structural points.
Bullish Structure (LLโHL)
1.LL (Lowest Low): A standard Pivot Low is identified.
2.HL (Higher Low): A subsequent Pivot Low forms higher than the previous LL. This completes the setup.
3.Pivot Line (Resistance): The indicator finds the highest price (High) that occurred between the LL and the HL. This level becomes the breakout trigger.
Bearish Structure (HHโLH)
1.HH (Highest High): A standard Pivot High is identified.
2.LH (Lower High): A subsequent Pivot High forms lower than the previous HH. This completes the setup.
3.Pivot Line (Support): The indicator finds the lowest price (Low) that occurred between the HH and the LH. This level becomes the breakdown trigger.
2. Multi-Length Scanning
Unlike standard indicators that use a single fixed length (e.g., Length = 5), this indicator scans a range of lengths simultaneously.
ใปSettings: Defined by Min Length and Max Length.
ใปMechanism: If set to Min=2 and Max=10, the indicator internally runs 9 separate calculations (Length 2 through 10) in parallel.
This allows it to capture everything from small, short-term pullbacks to larger, significant structural pivots without manual adjustment.
3. Priority Mode System
Since multiple lengths are scanned, multiple valid patterns may appear at the same time. The Priority Mode determines which single pattern is the "winner" and gets displayed.
A. Tightest Structure (Default)
ใปFor Bullish (Long): Selects the pattern with the lowest Pivot Line (Resistance).
ใปFor Bearish (Short): Selects the pattern with the highest Pivot Line (Support).
ใปAdvantage: It finds the "tightest" contraction (like a VCP). This offers the entry point closest to the stop-loss level, providing the best Risk/Reward ratio.
B. Longest Length
ใปSelects the pattern detected by the longest length setting.
ใปAdvantage: Focuses on major structural points, filtering out short-term noise. Best for trend confirmation.
C. Shortest Length
ใปSelects the pattern detected by the shortest length setting.
ใปAdvantage: Extremely sensitive. Best for scalping or catching immediate micro-pullbacks.
4. Real-Time Logic & Features
Structure Invalidation (Failure)
ใปBullish: If the current price drops below the HL (the support of the structure), the setup is considered failed.
ใปBearish: If the current price rises above the LH (the resistance of the structure), the setup is considered failed.
ใปResult: All lines and labels for that structure are immediately deleted to keep the chart clean.
Pivot Line Extension
ใปAs long as the structure remains valid (price hasn't violated the HL or LH), the Pivot Line extends to the right, acting as a live reference for breakouts or breakdowns.
Alerts
ใปBullish Breakout: Triggered when the Close price crosses over the Pivot Line.
ใปBearish Breakdown: Triggered when the Close price crosses under the Pivot Line.
King OscillatorKing Oscillator is a streamlined, non-overlay indicator designed to capture bullish momentum and bear-pressure via:
A normalized Heikin-Ashi-based tradeable trend filter
A fast-reacting custom MA variant
EMA oscillators, each scaled for cross-timeframe consistency
A bear-pressure line (blend of intrabar and group-range bears)
Combined Volume Flow and Price vs. VWAP oscillators
TedAlpha โ Structure / FVG / OB Sessions:
Only looks for trades when price is inside your defined London or NY time blocks.
CHOCH:
Uses pivots to track swing highs/lows, then flags a bullish CHOCH when structure flips from LL/LH to HH/HL, and vice versa for bearish.
FVG:
Detects 3-candle imbalance and keeps the zone โactiveโ for fvgLookback bars, then checks if price trades back into it.
Order Blocks:
On a CHOCH, grabs the last opposite candle (bearish before bull CHOCH = bullish OB, bullish before bear CHOCH = bearish OB) and marks its body as the OB zone.
Signal:
A valid long = bull CHOCH + in session + (price inside bullish FVG and/or bullish OB, depending on toggles).
Short is the mirror image.
RR 1:3:
SL uses the last swing low (for longs) or last swing high (for shorts), TP is auto-set at 3ร that distance and plotted as lines.

Methodology & Rules (Live Trading Version)
Purpose
Catch the exact moment the market flips from chop into a high-conviction trending move using a clean, stacked Fib EMA ribbon + volatility + volume confirmation.
Core Idea
When the 5-8-13-21-34-55 EMA stack suddenly โfans outโ in perfect order with significant separation, a real trend is being born. Most retail traders chase late โ FANBLASTER alerts you on the very first bar the fan opens.
What Triggers a โFAN BLASTโ Alert
Perfect EMA Alignment
Bullish: 5 > 8 > 13 > 21 > 34 > 55
Bearish: 5 < 8 < 13 < 21 < 34 < 55
(Has to flip from NOT aligned on the previous bar โ aligned on this bar)
Significant Separation
Distance between EMA 5 and EMA 55 โฅ 1.3 ร ATR(14)
(1.3 is the ES sweet spot โ filters fake little wiggles)
Trend Strength Confirmation
ADX(14) โฅ 22
(Ensures the move isnโt just noise; ES trends explode while ADX is still climbing)
Volume Conviction
Current volume > 1.4 ร 20-period EMA of volume
(Real moves have real participation)
When ALL FOUR conditions are true on the same bar โ you get the green or red circle + phone alert.
How to Trade It (Live Rules)
Alert fires โ look at the chart immediately
If price is pulling back to the 8 or 13 EMA in the direction of the fan โ enter on touch or close above/below
Initial stop: opposite side of the fan (below the 55 for longs, above the 55 for shorts)
Target: 2โ4 R minimum, trail with the 21 or 34 once in profit
No alert = stay flat. This is a โtrend birthโ sniper, not a scalping tool.
Best Instruments & Timeframes (2025)
ES & NQ futures
2 min, 5 min, 15 min (all work with the exact same settings)
Works on MES/MNQ too (same params)
Bottom Line
FANBLASTER sits silent 90 % of the day and only screams when the market is actually about to run 20โ100+ points.
One alert = one high-probability trend. Thatโs it.
Lock it, load it, and let the phone do the hunting.
Good luck, stay disciplined, and stack those points.

Intermarket Swing Projection [LuxAlgo]The Intermarket Swing Projection allows traders to plot price movement swings from any user-selected asset directly onto the chart in the form of zigzags and/or horizontal support and resistance levels.
This tool rescale the external asset price on the user chart, enabling traders to make direct comparisons.
It answers the question of how different the price behavior is between two assets, accounting for each asset's volatility.
๐ถ USAGE
This tool is based on swing detection of two different assets: the chart and a user-selected asset. It allows traders to compare two assets on an equal footing while accounting for volatility and price behavior.
Traders can customize the detection by selecting a custom ticker, timeframe, the number of swings and length for swing detection. This makes the tool a Swiss army knife for asset comparison.
As we can see in the image below, the Show Last, Pivot Length, and Spread parameters are key to defining the final output of the tool.
"Show Last" defines how many pivots are displayed. "Pivot Length" is used for pivot detection; a larger value will detect larger market structures. "Spread" defines how far apart the horizontal levels will be from their original location in terms of volatility.
๐น Comparing different assets
This image shows the Nasdaq 100 futures contract compared to four other futures contracts: S&P 500, gold, bitcoin, and euro/U.S. dollar.
Plotting all of these assets in Nasdaq 100 terms makes it easy to compare and analyze price behaviors and identify key levels.
In the top left chart, we have NQ vs. ES. It's no surprise that they are practically an exact match; a large portion of the S&P 500 is technology.
In the top right chart, NQ vs. GC, we see totally different behaviors. We can clearly see the summer consolidation in gold and the resumption of the uptrend, which took gold above 29,200 NQ points, up from 21,200.
In the bottom right chart, we see bitcoin making new highs, way above the Nasdaq in May, July, and October. However, the last high was way below the Nasdaq prices on October 27โthe first lower high in a while. Sellers are pushing down.
Finally, the bottom left chart is NQ vs. 6E. We can see large volatility in the uptrend since February, with NQ unable to catch up until now. The last swing low was almost a match, and 6E is in a range.
As we can see, this tool allows us to perform intermarket analysis properly by accounting for each asset's volatility and price behavior. Then, we plot them on the same scale on equal terms, which makes performing this kind of analysis easy.
As we can see in the chart above, the assets are the same as in the previous image, but the timeframe is 1H with different settings.
Note the horizontal levels acting as support and resistance, as well as how NQ prices react to the zones marked with white circles. These levels are derived from custom assets selected by the user.
๐น Displaying Elements
Zig-zag allows traders to clearly see the path that the selected asset's price took, as well as its turning points.
Horizontal levels are displayed from those turning points to the present and can be used as support or resistance. Traders can adjust the spread parameter in the settings panel to expand or contract those levels' volatility.
There are two color modes for the levels: average and pivots. In the first mode, green is used for levels below the average and red for levels above the average. The second uses green for swing lows and red for swing highs.
The backpaint feature is enabled by default and allows the swings to be displayed in the correct location. With this feature disabled, the swings will be displayed in the current location when a new swing is detected.
๐ถ DETAILS
On a more technical note, the rescaling is formed by calculating three main elements from all the swings detected on the custom and chart assets:
The chart asset's average of all swing points
The chart asset's standard deviation of all swing points
The custom asset's z-score for each swing point
Then, the re-scaled swing point is calculated as the average plus the z-score multiplied by the standard deviation. This makes it possible to plot AAPL swings on an NQ chart, for example.
Thanks to re-scaling, we can directly compare the price behavior of two assets with different price ranges and volatility on the same chart.

Apex IndicatorThe Apex Indicator is a physics-based momentum tool designed to measure the 2nd Derivative (Acceleration) of both Price and Volume.
โUnlike standard oscillators which often lag, this indicator uses Kinematics to identify the subtle shifts in momentum before price makes a major move. It answers the critical questions: Is the selling pressure fading? and Is there fresh fuel (Volume) entering to support a turn?
โThis script uses Hull Moving Average (HMA) smoothing for low-latency calculation, and Z-Score Normalization to force Price and Volume onto a shared, readable scale.
โVisual Guide
โThe Histogram (Price Acceleration)
โBright Green: Strong Bullish Acceleration (High Velocity).
โDark Green: Developing Bullish Momentum (or Waning Bullishness depending on context).
โBright Red: Strong Bearish Acceleration (Panic/Dump).
โDark Red: Developing Bearish Momentum (or Waning Bearishness).
โThe Line (Volume Acceleration)
โYellow: Volume is accelerating (Interest is entering).
โPurple: Volume is decelerating (Interest is leaving).
โThe Background Highlights
โGreen/Red Background: These mark Statistical Extremes (>1 Standard Deviation). While these show maximum power, they often mark the climax of a move rather than the start.
โHow to Trade: Reading the Subtleties
โThe power of the Apex Indicator is not in chasing the spikes, but in reading the Transitions.
โ1. The Turn (The Reversal Entry)
Don't wait for the explosion; look for the "braking" action.
โThe Setup: Price has been moving down strongly (Bright Red bars).
โThe Signal: The histogram shifts to Dark Red and begins moving up toward the zero line (less negative). This means the selling acceleration is dying.
โThe Trigger: A Dark Green bar prints, accompanied by the Volume Line turning Yellow/Rising.
โWhy it works: You are entering when the bearish energy is exhausted and fresh volume is stepping in to lift the price, often before the main breakout occurs.
โ2. The Second Wind (Trend Continuation)
โThe Setup: You are already in a trend (Green bars), but the bars fade to Dark Green or near Zero (a pullback or pause).
โThe Trigger: The next bar flips Bright Green and the Volume Line spikes Yellow.
โWhy it works: This confirms that the pause was just a breather, and buyers are stepping back on the gas.
โ3. The "Hollow Move" (Trap Avoidance)
โThe Scenario: Price is moving up (Green bars), but the Volume Line is Purple or dropping.
โInterpretation: This is a drift, not a drive. Without volume acceleration support, these moves are prone to rapid reversal.
โ4. The Climax (Exits)
โIf the Background flashes Green (Alert Trigger), be aware that price acceleration has hit a statistical extreme (Z-Score > 1).
โIf you are in a position, this is often a good place to Take Profit, as maintaining that level of acceleration is mathematically difficult for the market to sustain.
โSettings
โAnalysis Length (21): The lookback period for the HMA smoothing.
โNormalization Lookback (21): The historical window used to calculate the Z-Score. A setting of 21 allows the indicator to self-adjust quickly to recent volatility conditions.
Point of Control + Momentum CandlesPOINT OF CONTROL + MOMENTUM CANDLES
A comprehensive technical analysis indicator combining volume-based Point of Control detection, momentum-graded candle coloring, higher timeframe buy/sell signals, and order block identification.

WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES
This indicator identifies key price levels where the most trading activity has occurred (Point of Control), colors candles based on momentum strength, generates buy/sell signals from a user-selected timeframe, and detects order blocks that may act as future support/resistance zones.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
FEATURES
1. POINT OF CONTROL (POC)
The POC represents the price level with the highest traded volume over a lookback period. This indicator calculates a volume profile by distributing volume across price levels and identifying where the most activity occurred.
- Orange horizontal line shows the current POC level
- Yellow box highlights the candles used in the POC calculation
- Break detection identifies when price closes decisively beyond the POC
- Rejection detection identifies when price tests but fails to break the POC
2. MOMENTUM CANDLE COLORING
Candles are colored based on a 6-level momentum system using EMA positioning and RSI values:
Bullish Levels (price above both EMAs):
- Bull Level 3 (Royal Blue): Strong momentum, RSI above 70
- Bull Level 2 (Cyan): Medium momentum, RSI above 60
- Bull Level 1 (Green): Weak momentum, above EMAs
Bearish Levels (price below both EMAs):
- Bear Level 1 (Yellow): Weak momentum, below EMAs
- Bear Level 2 (Orange): Medium momentum, RSI below 40
- Bear Level 3 (Red): Strong momentum, RSI below 30
Neutral (White): No clear directional momentum
3. BUY/SELL SIGNALS
Signals are generated from a user-selectable timeframe (default: 10 minutes) and appear on your current chart. This allows you to see higher timeframe signals while trading on lower timeframes.
Buy Signal Conditions:
- EMA crossover (fast crosses above slow) OR RSI exits oversold
- Bullish candle on the signal timeframe
- Close above both EMAs
Sell Signal Conditions:
- EMA crossunder (fast crosses below slow) OR RSI exits overbought
- Bearish candle on the signal timeframe
- Close below both EMAs
4. ORDER BLOCKS
Order blocks identify potential institutional entry zones that may act as future support or resistance.
- Bullish Order Block (Green zone): The last bearish candle before a bullish impulse move
- Bearish Order Block (Red zone): The last bullish candle before a bearish impulse move
- Blocks automatically extend forward and can be set to delete when mitigated (price closes through the zone)
5. DASHBOARD
A customizable info panel displays:
- Current POC price
- Distance from POC (percentage)
- Position relative to POC (Above/Below/At)
- Lookback period
- Current RSI value
- Current momentum level
- Signal timeframe
- Active order block count

HOW TO USE
POC Trading:
- Watch for breaks above POC for potential long entries
- Watch for breaks below POC for potential short entries
- Rejections at POC can indicate reversal opportunities
Momentum Reading:
- Use candle colors to gauge trend strength at a glance
- Level 3 colors indicate strong momentum (potential continuation)
- Level 1 colors indicate weakening momentum (potential reversal)
- Neutral/white candles suggest consolidation or indecision
Signal Confirmation:
- Use buy/sell signals from a higher timeframe to confirm entries on your trading timeframe
- Combine signals with POC breaks/rejections for higher probability setups
Order Block Strategy:
- Look for price to return to bullish order blocks for potential long entries
- Look for price to return to bearish order blocks for potential short entries
- Mitigated blocks (price closes through) lose their significance

NOTES
- The indicator uses request.security() to fetch data from the signal and order block timeframes. This is designed to work when viewing charts at timeframes equal to or lower than your selected signal/OB timeframes.
- POC calculations are based on the visible volume data. Assets with limited volume data may produce less reliable POC levels.
- Order blocks are detected using a simplified algorithm based on candle patterns and displacement. They represent potential zones of interest, not guaranteed support/resistance levels.

Fractal MTF MA System Overview Unlock the fractal nature of the market with a single, clean indicator. This tool allows you to visualize the exact same Moving Average length (default: 50) across 5 different timeframes simultaneously. By comparing "apples to apples" across time dimensions, you get a clear, immediate view of the overall market trend and momentum health.
No more switching charts or manually adding 5 different indicators. This script does it all with a single global setting.
Key Features
๐งฉ Fractal Logic: Applies one consistent calculation (e.g., 50 Period) to 15m, 30m, 1H, 2H, and 4H timeframes.
๐๏ธ Global Control: Change the Length or MA Type once, and it instantly updates all 5 lines. No need to adjust each line individually.
๐ 3 Calculation Modes: Switch between DEMA (Double Exponential - Default/Fast), EMA (Standard), or SMA (Smooth) to fit your trading style.
๐จ Visual Clarity: Choose between Step mode (for precise MTF levels) or Line mode (for a smoother, cleaner look).
How to Use This Indicator
1. Trend Following (The Fan) When the market is trending strongly, the lines will stack in perfect order:
Bullish: Price > 15m > 30m > 1H > 2H > 4H.
Bearish: Price < 15m < 30m < 1H < 2H < 4H.
Strategy: Ride the trend as long as the "Fan" is open and orderly.
2. Mean Reversion (The Snap-Back) When the price moves too far from the anchor line (the 4H line) and the gaps between the lines become extreme, the market is "overextended" (like a stretched rubber band).
Strategy: Watch for price to stall and cross back over the fastest line (15m) as an early sign of a correction towards the slower averages.
3. Dynamic Support & Resistance During a trend, price often pulls back to test the 1H or 2H lines before continuing. These lines act as dynamic support zones.
Settings
Global Length: Sets the lookback period for ALL lines (Default: 50).
MA Type: Select DEMA, EMA, or SMA.
Line Style: Toggle between Step (precise) or Line (smooth).
Individual Toggles: You can hide specific timeframes via the settings menu if you want a cleaner chart.
