Support and Resistance Breakouts By RICHIESupport and resistance are fundamental concepts in technical analysis used to identify price levels on charts that act as barriers, preventing the price of an asset from getting pushed in a certain direction. Here’s a detailed description of each and how breakout strategies are typically used:
Support
Support is a price level where a downtrend can be expected to pause due to a concentration of demand. As the price of an asset drops, it hits a level where buyers tend to step in, causing the price to rebound.
Support Level Identification: Support levels are identified by looking at historical data where prices have repeatedly fallen to a certain level but have then rebounded.
Strength of Support: The more times an asset price hits a support level without breaking below it, the stronger that support level is considered to be.
Resistance
Resistance is a price level where an uptrend can be expected to pause due to a concentration of selling interest. As the price of an asset increases, it hits a level where sellers tend to step in, causing the price to drop.
Resistance Level Identification: Resistance levels are identified by looking at historical data where prices have repeatedly risen to a certain level but have then fallen back.
Strength of Resistance: The more times an asset price hits a resistance level without breaking above it, the stronger that resistance level is considered to be.
Breakouts
A breakout occurs when the price moves above a resistance level or below a support level with increased volume. Breakouts can be significant because they suggest a change in supply and demand dynamics, often leading to strong price movements.
Breakout Above Resistance: Indicates a bullish market sentiment. Traders often interpret this as a sign to enter a long position (buy).
Breakout Below Support: Indicates a bearish market sentiment. Traders often interpret this as a sign to enter a short position (sell).
Breakout Trading Strategies
Confirmation: Wait for a candle to close beyond the support or resistance level to confirm the breakout.
Volume: Increased volume on a breakout adds credibility, suggesting that the price move is supported by strong buying or selling interest.
Retest: Sometimes, after a breakout, the price will return to the breakout level to test it as a new support or resistance. This retest offers another entry point.
Stop-Loss: Place stop-loss orders just below the resistance (for long positions) or above the support (for short positions) to limit potential losses in case of a false breakout.
Take-Profit: Identify target levels for taking profits. These can be set based on previous support/resistance levels or using tools like Fibonacci retracements.

ICT Killzones Toolkit [LuxAlgo]The ICT Killzones Toolkit is a comprehensive set of tools designed to assist traders in identifying key trading zones and patterns within the market.
The ICT Killzones Toolkit includes the following Price Action components:
ICT Killzones with Pivot Highs/Lows
Order Blocks
Breaker Blocks
Fair Value Gaps
Market Structure Shifts
By combining these components, the ICT Killzones Toolkit provides traders with a comprehensive framework for analyzing the market and identifying setups of interest. Leveraging these tools effectively can enhance traders' decision-making process and improve killzones interpretability.
🔶 USAGE
In forex/futures trading, timing is crucial. ICT Killzone are specific periods when there's a higher chance of finding setups of interest. Mastering these time intervals can offer significant advantages to traders who know how to use them effectively.
The image above highlights a potential setup of interest when using the ICT Killzones Toolkit.
As another example for utilizing the ICT Killzones Toolkit, we can see in the image above when price retests setups generated from killzones such as Order Blocks or Fair Value Gaps, a potential strategy could be to look for entries on those & take profits as the next killzone appears.
🔹 Order Blocks
Order Blocks are sections on a price chart where notable buying or selling activity has occured, often signaling interest zones for institutional traders. This toolkit's Order Blocks component pinpoints these areas within the Killzone, which may act as potential support or resistance levels.
🔹 Breaker Blocks
Breaker Blocks are zones built from mitigated order blocks, and highlight zones on the chart where price has previously stalled or reversed. These areas may act as significant barriers to price movement in the future, and the Breaker Blocks component helps traders identify them for potential trading opportunities.
🔹 Fair Value Gaps
Fair value gaps are especially favored by price action traders and arise from market inefficiencies or imbalances, typically when buying and selling are unequal. These gaps often attract price movement before resuming in the same direction. the Fair Value Gaps component of the toolkit helps traders identify and analyze them.
🔹 Market Structure Shifts
Market Structure Shifts refer to significant changes in the overall structure of the market, such as shifts in trend direction, volatility, or trading activity. These shifts can provide valuable insights into market sentiment and potential trading opportunities, and the Market Structure Shifts component helps traders identify and interpret them.
Overall, the ICT Killzone Toolkit combines these components to provide traders with a comprehensive framework for analyzing the markets and identifying high-probability trading setups.

Opening Range & Prior Day High/Low [Gorb]Introduction:
Opening Range & Prior Day High/Low indicator is an easy to use day traders tool. This indicator automatically plots the previous days high and low, as well as drawing a box from the opening range that the user specifies in the settings. These two together can help provide an indication of market sentiment and price trends for the day. They are often used as a trading strategy for day traders.
Overview:
The Opening Range , draws a box from the high to the low of the user defined time period and is extended until the end of the trading session. Most common are the 5/15/30min opening ranges.
Prior Day High/Low , draws lines from the previous days high and low that extend across the current session. These are used as support/resistance and also a marker to see market sentiment by crossing one of these levels.
The indicator is designed for all kinds of traders, offering a simple approach to automatically plot levels for you.
Features:
All skill-level friendly presets, easy to enable with one-click
Opening Range: Allows user to choose what time the range starts and ends to measure the high & low.
Extend Range Lines: allows the user to choose when the box stops extending according to the trading session time.
Enable Opening Range Box: allows the user to choose to plot the opening range or not.
ORB Border Color: allows the user to change the box border color.
ORB Box Shade Color: allows the user to change the background of the opening range box.
ORB Line Width: allows users to chose the width of the opening range box lines.
Enable Previous Day High: allows users to enable the previous days high to be plotted.
Enable Previous Day Low: allows users to enable the previous days high to be plotted.
Previous Day High Color: allows users to choose the color for this line.
Previous Day Low Color: allows users to choose the color for this line.
All colors are changeable for the user to customize to their liking.
Usage Demonstration
In the image below, we can see a basic example of how these 3 features function.
As explained above, the opening range is customizable to meet the users needs and can be disabled with one click. Same goes for the prior day high(green) and low(red) lines. All 3 are plotted each day automatically for the user if enabled.
In the image below, we can see an example of using the opening range break and prior day high together for a trading strategy.
This is a great example of using the prior day high with the opening range to use as a day trading strategy. It provides the trader with levels to watch for price to break out from for possible trade setups.
In this next image, we can see a failed breakdown from the opening range that results in a bullish breakout.
The first move was a fake breakdown with the failed rejection on the retest of the opening range lows. This led to a breakout above the range and a confirmation bounce on the breakout retest. Price did break above the prior day high and confirmed with a retest bounce on that level as well.
In the image below, we can see how previous days levels can act as resistance to use with the opening range.
Price didn't reject the opening range low, but it did reject the prior day high for the second time. This could be used as an entry or once price breaks down out of the opening range again.
Conclusion:
We believe in providing user-friendly tools to help speed up traders technical analysis and implement easy trading strategies. The goal is to provide a user-friendly indicator to automatically draw opening ranges and previous days levels to suit the users needs and trading style.

Candle body break (M_WD4H1H)v5Overview
This indicator is a multi-timeframe (MTF) analysis tool specialized in detecting candle body breaks. It overlays the break levels for five timeframes: monthly (M), weekly (W), daily (D), 4-hourly (4H), and 1-hourly (1H) on the current chart.
Major Features
Feature Description
Five timeframes: M/W/D/4H/1H. Data for each timeframe is retrieved and calculated using the request.security() function.
Break Detection Logic: A "body break" is defined as when the closing price of the current candlestick exceeds or falls below the body high/low of the previous opposite candlestick.
Confirmed Break Line: A solid line extending from the point of the break to the right edge of the chart indicates the price level at which a previous body break occurred. Upward breaks are drawn in blue, and downward breaks are drawn in red.
Candidate Break Lines: Green dotted lines indicate the (unbroken) body high and low levels that are the next target for a break.
Summary Table: A list of the most recent break direction (upward ⇧ / downward ⇩ / none "") for each time frame (M/W/D/4H/1H) is displayed in the upper right corner of the chart.
Display Time Frame Limit: Depending on user settings, the break line itself will only be displayed for the chart's time frame or higher. Candidate lines can also be displayed only for the current chart's time frame.
Alert Function: An alert will be issued when a body break occurs on the 1-hour (1H) time frame.
Scale Settings: The entire indicator is fixed to the price scale on the right.
Price Trendlines + Break Signals█ OVERVIEW
The "Price Trendlines + Break Signals" indicator is a technical analysis tool that automatically draws trendlines based on price pivot points and detects breakout signals. Designed for traders seeking precise market signals, the indicator identifies key pivot points, draws trendlines (resistance and support), and generates breakout signals with background highlighting. It offers flexible settings and alerts for breakout signals.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator was created to provide traders with an alternative source of signals based on trendlines. Breakouts and bounces from trendlines can signal a trend change or the end of a correction. Combining these signals with other technical analysis tools can form the basis for building diverse trading strategies.
█ FEATURES
-Pivot Point Calculation: The indicator identifies pivot points (pivot high and pivot low) based on the closing price, with configurable left and right bars for pivot detection. Setting a higher number of bars results in fewer but more significant trendlines, with a delay corresponding to the specified length. Lower values generate more trendlines, but they are less significant. Crossovers are signaled only after the trendline is drawn, so sometimes no signals appear on crossed trendlines—this indicates the price passed through the line before it was detected.
- Trendlines: Draws trendlines connecting price pivot points—upper lines for downtrends (resistance) and lower lines for uptrends (support). Lines can be extended by a specified number of bars (default: 50).
- Tolerance Margin: Trendlines are widened by a tolerance margin, calculated using the average candle body size over a specified period and its multiplier. Reducing the multiplier to zero leaves only the trendline without a margin. Breaking this zone is a condition for generating signals.
- Breakout Signals: Generates signals when the price breaks through a trendline (bullish for upper lines, bearish for lower lines), with background highlighting for signal confirmation.
Alerts: Built-in alerts for:
- Upper trendline breakout (bullish signal).
- Lower trendline breakout (bearish signal).
Customization: Allows adjustment of pivot parameters, trendline extension length, tolerance margin, line colors, fills, and signal background transparency.
█ HOW TO USE
Adding the Indicator: Add the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configuring Settings:
- Left Bars for Pivot: Number of bars back for detecting pivots (default: 10).
- Right Bars for Pivot: Number of bars forward to confirm pivots (default: 10).
- Extend past 2nd pivot: Number of bars to extend the trendline after the second pivot (default: 50, 0 = no extension).
- Average Body Periods: Period for calculating the average candle body size used for the tolerance margin (default: 100).
- Tolerance Multiplier: Multiplier for the tolerance margin based on the average candle body size (default: 1.0).
Colors and Style:
- Upper trendline (resistance): default red.
- Lower trendline (support): default green.
- Line fills: colors with transparency (default 70).
- Signal background: green for bullish signals, red for bearish signals (default transparency 85).
Interpreting Signals:
- Trendlines: Upper lines (red) indicate a downtrend, lower lines (green) indicate an uptrend. Signals appear after a trendline breakout with the tolerance margin. Each trendline generates only one breakout signal, though it may still act as resistance or support for the price.
- Breakout Signals: Green background indicates an upper trendline breakout (bullish), red background indicates a lower trendline breakout (bearish).
- Alerts: Set up alerts in TradingView for trendline breakout signals.
Combining with Other Tools: Use with support/resistance levels, Fibonacci levels, RSI, pivot points, or FVG (Fair Value Gap) for signal confirmation.
█ APPLICATIONS
The "Price Trendlines + Break Signals" indicator is designed to identify trends and potential reversal points, supporting both trend-following and contrarian strategies:
- Trend Confirmation: Trendlines indicate the direction of the price trend, and bounces from them may signal the end of a correction.
- Reversal Strategies: Breakout signals can be used as cues to enter positions in anticipation of a trend change or correction.
- Noise Filtering: The tolerance margin reduces false signals, enhancing reliability.
█ NOTES
- Trendline crossovers are signaled only after the trendline is drawn, so sometimes no signals appear on crossed trendlines—this indicates the price passed through the line before it was detected.
- Each trendline generates only one breakout signal, though it may still act as a level of support or resistance for the price.
- Setting a higher number of bars for pivots results in fewer but more significant trendlines, with a delay corresponding to the specified length. Lower values generate more trendlines, but they are less significant.
- Adjust settings (e.g., number of bars for pivots, tolerance multiplier) to suit your trading style and timeframe.
- Combine with other technical analysis tools, such as RSI, pivot points, or FVG, to enhance signal accuracy.
- For high-volatility markets, consider increasing the tolerance margin to reduce false signals.
Whale Breaker — HTF Order Blocks + Market Structure HUDWhale Breaker (Debug Edition) is an advanced Smart Money Concept (SMC) tool designed to project High Timeframe (HTF) order blocks onto your Lower Timeframe (LTF) charts while tracking market structure breaks (BOS / CHoCH).
This debug build adds extra transparency: the mini-HUD not only shows HTF trend, last signal, and active order blocks, but also explains why no new block was created (e.g. no HTF BOS, body not found, ATR filter too strict, max-per-side limit). This makes it easier to fine-tune your settings and understand the logic behind the indicator.
Key features:
- HTF order blocks (e.g. 1h) projected into LTF charts (e.g. 15m)
- Automatic right-extension until mitigation (MB)
- Mitigation detection: blocks shaded once filled
- ATR filter to remove insignificant micro-zones
- Per-side cap: limit the maximum active BU/B blocks
- Lookback-based pruning for clean charts
- BOS/CHoCH arrows on chart (▲ green = bullish, ▼ red = bearish)
- Compact HUD with trend, last signal, active OBs, legend, and debug reasons
Usage:
- Define your HTF (e.g. 1h) and trade entries on the LTF (e.g. 15m).
- Wait for a BOS in HTF direction, then target the projected order block.
- Stop Loss just beyond the OB, Take Profit at next opposite OB or using a fixed RRR.
Note: This is a debugging/educational version to understand order block creation logic.
For live trading, consider using the standard Whale Breaker.
Market Structure ICT Screener [TradingFinder] BoS ChoCh🔵 Introduction
Market Structure is the foundation of every Smart Money and ICT based trading model. It describes how price moves through a sequence of highs and lows, forming clear phases of expansion, retracement and reversal. Understanding this structure allows traders to read institutional order flow and align their positions with the true direction of liquidity.
Two of the most critical components in Market Structure are the Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHOCH). A BOS represents trend continuation, confirming strength within the current direction. In contrast, CHOCH also known as a Market Structure Shift (MSS) signals the first sign of a trend reversal or liquidity shift where order flow begins to change from bullish to bearish or vice versa.
Because the market is fractal, structure can exist at multiple levels known as Major (External) and Minor (Internal). Major structure defines the overall trend on higher timeframes while minor or internal structure reveals short term swings and early reversals within that larger move.
🔵 How to Use
Understanding Market Structure starts with identifying how price interacts with previous swing highs and swing lows. Every trend in the market, whether bullish or bearish, is built from a sequence of impulsive and corrective moves. Impulsive legs show strong displacement in the direction of liquidity flow, while corrective legs represent temporary pullbacks as the market rebalances before the next expansion. Recognizing these sequences is essential for reading the story of price and anticipating what may happen next.
A Break of Structure (BOS) occurs when price decisively moves beyond a previous structural point by breaking above the last high in an uptrend or falling below the last low in a downtrend. This event confirms that the current trend remains intact and that liquidity has been successfully taken from one side of the market. A BOS acts as confirmation of continuation and reflects strength within the existing directional bias.
A Change of Character (CHOCH) appears when price violates structure in the opposite direction of the prevailing trend. This is the first signal that market sentiment and order flow may be shifting. For example, during a downtrend if price breaks above a previous high, it indicates that sellers are losing control and a potential bullish reversal may be developing. In an uptrend, when price drops below a recent low, it suggests a possible bearish transition.
Because the market is fractal, structure exists across multiple layers. Major structure reflects the dominant movement visible on higher timeframes and defines the broader directional bias. Minor or internal structure represents smaller swings within that move and helps identify early transitions before they appear on the higher timeframe. When internal and external structures align, they offer a high probability signal for trend continuation or reversal.
By observing BOS and CHOCH across both internal and external structures, traders can clearly visualize when the market is expanding, contracting or preparing to shift direction. This structured understanding of price movement forms the foundation for precise trend analysis and high quality decision making in any Smart Money or ICT based trading approach.

🔵 Conclusion
Mastering Market Structure and understanding the relationship between BOS and CHOCH allows traders to see the market with greater clarity and confidence. These two elements reveal how liquidity moves through different phases of expansion and retracement and how institutional order flow shifts between accumulation and distribution.
By analyzing both internal and external structures, traders can align short term and long term perspectives and anticipate where price is most likely to react. The ability to read these structural shifts helps identify continuation points, reversals and areas where liquidity is engineered or collected.
Incorporating Market Structure into a consistent trading process transforms the way a trader views the chart. Instead of reacting to random movements, each swing, break and shift becomes part of a logical framework that reflects the true behavior of the market. Understanding BOS and CHOCH is not just a concept but a complete language of price that guides every professional decision in Smart Money and ICT based trading.
Yon Hybrid Momentum + Breakout Scanner with BB SqueezeThis Pine Script indicator is a comprehensive momentum and breakout scanner that combines multiple technical analysis tools to identify high-probability trading setups. Here's what it does:
Core Features:
1. Trend Identification (EMA System)
Uses two EMAs (9-period fast, 20-period slow) to determine trend direction
Colors the chart background: teal = uptrend, red = downtrend
An uptrend is confirmed when the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA
2. Volume Analysis
Monitors volume spikes (when current volume exceeds 2x the 20-period average)
Volume spikes often indicate strong institutional interest or breakout momentum
Critical for confirming the validity of price movements
3. Momentum Indicators
MACD (12, 26, 9): Shows bullish/bearish crossovers with triangle markers
RSI (7-period): Identifies overbought (>70) and oversold (<30) conditions
VWAP: Shows the volume-weighted average price (purple line) - helps identify whether price is trading at fair value
4. Bollinger Bands & Squeeze Detection
Displays Bollinger Bands (20-period, 2 standard deviations)
BB Squeeze: Detects when volatility contracts to its lowest level in 20 bars
Squeezes often precede explosive breakout moves (like a coiled spring)
Orange squares appear at the bottom when a squeeze is detected
5. Breakout Detection
The script identifies breakouts using TWO methods:
Price breakout: Close above the recent 20-bar high
BB breakout: Close above the upper Bollinger Band
Confirmed breakout: Must have uptrend + volume spike + one of the above conditions
Shows a green "BREAKOUT" label when all conditions align
6. Live Status Label
A label in the top-right displays real-time market conditions:
Current trend (UPTREND/DOWNTREND)
Volume status (VOL SPIKE/Normal Vol)
RSI condition (HOT/COOL/Neutral)
Squeeze status (if active)
7. Alerts
Two automated alerts:
Breakout Alert: Triggers when a confirmed breakout occurs
Squeeze Alert: Triggers when Bollinger Bands enter a squeeze
Trading Use Cases:
This indicator is ideal for:
Swing traders looking for momentum setups with strong volume confirmation
Breakout traders who want to catch explosive moves after consolidation
Day traders monitoring multiple timeframes for high-probability entries
Watchlist scanning to quickly identify which stocks/cryptos are showing momentum
How to Use It:
Setup Phase: Look for BB squeeze markers (orange squares) - these signal compression
Confirmation: Wait for volume spike + uptrend + MACD bullish crossover
Entry: When "BREAKOUT" label appears with all confirmations
Validation: Price should be above VWAP and RSI not extremely overbought
The script essentially automates the process of finding stocks that are "coiling up" and ready to make a big move, then confirms when that move actually happens with volume.

ORB + Session VWAP Pro (London & NY) — fixedORB + Session VWAP Pro (London & NY) — Listing copy (EN)
What it is
A clean, non-repainting intraday tool that fuses the classic Opening Range Breakout (ORB) with a session-anchored VWAP filter for London and New York. It highlights only the higher-quality breakouts (above/below session VWAP), adds an optional retest confirmation, and scores each signal with an intuitive Confidence metric (0–100).
Why it works
• ORB provides the day’s first actionable structure (range high/low).
• Session VWAP filters “cheap” breaks and favors flows aligned with session value.
• Optional retest reduces first-tick whipsaws.
• Confidence blends breakout depth (vs ATR), VWAP slope and band distance.
Key visuals
• LDN/NY OR High/Low (line break style) + optional OR boxes.
• Active Session VWAP (resets per signal window; falls back to daily VWAP outside).
• Optional VWAP bands (stdev or %).
• Session shading (London/NY windows).
• Signal markers (LDN BUY/SELL, NY BUY/SELL) fired with cooldown.
Signals
• London Long / Short: Break of LDN OR High/Low ± ATR buffer, aligned with VWAP side.
• NY Long / Short: Same logic during NY window.
• Retest (optional): Requires a tag back to the OR level ± tolerance before confirmation.
• Confidence: 0–100; gate via Min Confidence (default 55).
Inputs that matter
• Open Range Length (min): Default 15.
• London/NY times & timezones.
• ATR buffer & retest tolerance.
• Bands mode: Stdev (with lookback) or % (e.g., 1%).
• Signal cooldown: Avoids clutter on fast moves.
Non-repaint policy
• OR lines build within fixed time windows using the current bar’s timestamp.
• VWAP is cumulative within the session window; no lookahead.
• All ta.crossover/ta.crossunder are precomputed every bar (no conditional execution).
• Signals are based on live bar values, not future bars.
⸻
Quick start (examples)
1) EURUSD, London momentum
• Chart: 5m or 15m.
• OR: 15 min starting 08:00 Europe/London.
• Signals: Use defaults; keep ATR buffer = 0.2 and Retest = ON, Min Confidence ≥ 55.
• Play:
• BUY when price breaks LDN OR High + buffer and stays above VWAP; retest confirms.
• Trail behind VWAP or band #1; partials into band #2.
2) NAS100, New York breakout & run
• Chart: 5m.
• NY window: 09:30 America/New_York, OR = 15 min.
• Retest OFF on high momentum days; Min Confidence ≥ 60.
• Use band mode Stdev, bandLen=50, show ±1/±2.
• Momentum continuation: add on pullbacks that hold above VWAP after the breakout.
3) XAUUSD, London fake & VWAP fade
• Chart: 5m.
• Keep Retest ON; accept only shorts that break OR Low but retest fails back under VWAP.
• Confidence gate ≥ 50 to allow more mean-reversion setups.
⸻
Pro tips
• Adjust ATR buffer to the instrument: FX 0.15–0.25, indices 0.20–0.35, metals 0.20–0.30.
• Retest ON for choppy conditions; OFF for news momentum.
• Use VWAP bands: take partials at ±1; stretch targets at ±2/±3.
• Session timezones are explicit (London/New York). Ensure they match your instrument’s behavior.
• Pair with a higher-TF bias (e.g., 1H/4H trend) for directional filtering.
⸻
Alerts (ready to use)
• ORB+SVWAP — LDN Long, LDN Short, NY Long, NY Short
(Respect your cooldown; alerts fire only after confirmation and confidence gate.)
⸻
Known limits & notes
• Designed for intraday. On 1D+ charts, session windows compress.
• If your broker session differs from London/NY clocks on a holiday, adjust input times.
• Session-anchored VWAP uses the script’s signal window, not exchange sessions, by design.

📜 Nirvana True Duel — Strategy Description (English)
Name:
Nirvana True Duel (a.k.a. Nirvana Cross)
Concept & Philosophy
The “Nirvana True Duel” strategy focuses on trading only meaningful breakouts and avoiding unnecessary noise.
Nirvana: A calm, patient state — waiting for the right opportunity without emotional trading.
True Duel: When the signal appears, enter decisively and let the market reveal the outcome.
In short: “Ignore market noise, trade only high-probability breakouts.”
🧩 Strategy Components
Trend Filter (EMA Ribbon): Stay aligned with the main market trend.
Volatility Squeeze (Bollinger Band): Detect volatility contraction & expansion to catch explosive moves early.
Volume Confirmation (OBV): Filter out false breakouts by confirming with volume flow.
⚔️ Entry & Exit Conditions
Long Setup:
20 EMA > 50 EMA (uptrend)
BB width breaks out from recent squeeze
Close > Upper Bollinger Band
OBV shows positive flow
Short Setup:
20 EMA < 50 EMA (downtrend)
BB width breaks out from recent squeeze
Close < Lower Bollinger Band
OBV shows negative flow
Risk Management:
Stop Loss: ATR × 1.5 below/above entry
Take Profit: 1.5–2× stop distance, partial take-profit allowed
Time Stop: Automatically closes after max bars held (e.g. 8h on 5m chart)
✅ Strengths
Triple Filtering: Trend + Volatility + Volume → fewer false signals
Mechanical & Backtestable: Ideal for objective trading & performance validation
Adaptable: Works well on Bitcoin, Nasdaq futures, and other high-volatility markets (5m/15m)
⚠️ Things to Note
Low signal frequency or higher failure rate in sideways/range markets
Commission & slippage should be factored in, especially on lower timeframes
ATR multiplier and R:R ratio should be optimized per asset
Volume Profile Auto POC📌 Overview

BBMA Enhanced Pro - Multi-Timeframe Band Breakout StrategyShort Title : BBMA Pro
Overview
The BBMA Enhanced Pro is a professional-grade trading indicator that builds on the Bollinger Bands Moving Average (BBMA) strategy, pioneered by Omar Ali , a Malaysian forex trader and educator. Combining Bollinger Bands with Weighted Moving Averages (WMA) , this indicator identifies high-probability breakout and reversal opportunities across multiple timeframes. With advanced features like multi-timeframe Extreme signal detection, eight professional visual themes, and a dual-mode dashboard, it’s designed for traders seeking precision in trending and consolidating markets. Optimized for dark chart backgrounds, it’s ideal for forex, stocks, and crypto trading.
History
The BBMA strategy was developed by Omar Ali (BBMA Oma Ally) in the early 2010s, gaining popularity in the forex trading community, particularly in Southeast Asia. Building on John Bollinger’s Bollinger Bands, Omar Ali integrated Weighted Moving Averages and a multi-timeframe approach to create a structured system for identifying reversals, breakouts, and extreme conditions. The BBMA Enhanced Pro refines this framework with modern features like real-time dashboards and customizable visualizations, making it accessible to both novice and experienced traders.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Extreme Signals : Detects Extreme signals (overbought/oversold conditions) on both current and higher timeframes simultaneously, a rare feature that enhances signal reliability through trend alignment.
Professional Visual Themes : Eight distinct themes (e.g., Neon Contrast, Fire Gradient) optimized for dark backgrounds.
Dual-Mode Dashboard : Choose between Full Professional (detailed metrics) or Simplified Trader (essential info with custom notes).
Bollinger Band Squeeze Detection : Identifies low volatility periods (narrow bands) signaling potential sideways markets or breakouts.
Confirmation Labels : Displays labels when current timeframe signals align with recent higher timeframe signals, highlighting potential consolidations or squeezes.
Timeframe Validation : Prevents selecting the same timeframe for current and higher timeframe analysis.
Customizable Visualization : Toggle signal dots, EMA 50, and confirmation labels for a clean chart experience.
How It Works
The BBMA Enhanced Pro combines Bollinger Bands (20-period SMA, ±2 standard deviations) with WMA (5 and 10 periods) to generate trade signals:
Buy Signal : WMA 5 Low crosses above the lower Bollinger Band, indicating a recovery from an oversold condition (Extreme buy).
Sell Signal : WMA 5 High crosses below the upper Bollinger Band, signaling a rejection from an overbought condition (Extreme sell).
Extreme Signals : Occur when prices or WMAs move significantly beyond the Bollinger Bands (±2σ), indicating statistically rare overextensions. These often coincide with Bollinger Band Squeezes (narrow bands, low standard deviation), signaling potential sideways markets or impending breakouts.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation : The indicator’s unique strength is its ability to detect Extreme signals on both the current and higher timeframe (HTF) within the same chart. When the HTF generates an Extreme signal (e.g., buy), and the current timeframe follows with an identical signal, it suggests the lower timeframe is aligning with the HTF’s trend, increasing reliability. Labels appear only when this alignment occurs within a user-defined lookback period (default: 50 bars), highlighting periods of band contraction across timeframes.
Bollinger Band Squeeze : Narrow bands (low standard deviation) indicate reduced volatility, often preceding consolidation or breakouts. The indicator’s dashboard tracks band width, helping traders anticipate these phases.
Why Multi-Timeframe Extremes Matter
The BBMA Enhanced Pro’s multi-timeframe approach is rare and powerful. When the higher timeframe shows an Extreme signal followed by a similar signal on the current timeframe, it suggests the market is following the HTF’s trend or entering a consolidation phase. For example:
HTF Sideways First : If the HTF Bollinger Bands are shrinking (low volatility, low standard deviation), it signals a potential sideways market. Waiting for the current timeframe to show a similar Extreme signal confirms this consolidation, reducing the risk of false breakouts.
Risk Management : By requiring HTF confirmation, the indicator encourages traders to lower risk during uncertain periods, waiting for both timeframes to align in a low-volatility state before acting.
Usage Instructions
Select Display Mode :
Current TF Only : Shows Bollinger Bands and WMAs on the chart’s timeframe.
Higher TF Only : Displays HTF bands and WMAs.
Both Timeframes : Combines both for comprehensive analysis.
Choose Higher Timeframe : Select from 1min to 1D (e.g., 15min, 1hr). Ensure it differs from the current timeframe to avoid validation errors.
Enable Signal Dots : Visualize buy/sell Extreme signals as dots, sourced from current, HTF, or both timeframes.
Toggle Confirmation Labels : Display labels when current timeframe Extremes align with recent HTF Extremes, signaling potential squeezes or consolidations.
Customize Dashboard :
Full Professional Mode : View metrics like BB width, WMA trend, and last signal.
Simplified Trader Mode : Focus on essential info with custom trader notes.
Select Visual Theme : Choose from eight themes (e.g., Ice Crystal, Royal Purple) for optimal chart clarity.
Trading Example
Setup : 5min chart, HTF set to 1hr, signal dots and confirmation labels enabled.
Buy Scenario : On the 5min chart, WMA 5 Low crosses above the lower Bollinger Band (Extreme buy), confirmed by a recent 1hr Extreme buy signal within 50 bars. The dashboard shows narrow bands (squeeze), and a green label appears.
Action : Enter a long position, targeting the middle band, with a stop-loss below the recent low. The HTF confirmation suggests a strong trend or consolidation phase.
Sell Scenario : WMA 5 High crosses below the upper Bollinger Band on the 5min chart, confirmed by a recent 1hr Extreme sell signal. The dashboard indicates a squeeze, and a red label appears.
Action : Enter a short position, targeting the middle band, with a stop-loss above the recent high. The aligned signals suggest a potential reversal or sideways market.
Customization Options
BBMA Display Mode : Current TF Only, Higher TF Only, or Both Timeframes.
Higher Timeframe : 1min to 1D.
Visual Theme : Eight professional themes (e.g., Neon Contrast, Forest Glow).
Line Style : Smooth or Step Line for HTF plots.
Signal Dots : Enable/disable, select timeframe source (Current, Higher, or Both).
Confirmation Labels : Toggle and set lookback window (1-100 bars).
Dashboard : Enable/disable, choose mode (Full/Simplified), and set position (Top Right, Bottom Left, etc.).
Notes
Extreme Signals and Squeezes : Extreme signals often occur during Bollinger Band contraction (low standard deviation), signaling potential sideways markets or breakouts. Use HTF confirmation to filter false signals.
Risk Management : If the HTF shows a squeeze (narrow bands), wait for the current timeframe to confirm with an Extreme signal to reduce risk in choppy markets.
Limitations : Avoid trading Extremes in highly volatile markets without additional confirmation (e.g., volume, RSI).

Block-Based Trend Breakout (YTK/DTK) – v1📌 Overview
Block Trend Breakout (YTK/DTK) is a lightweight, rule-based indicator that detects potential trend reversals or volatility bursts by tracking breakouts of key structural support/resistance levels — derived from block-wise trend patterns.
The logic is simple yet effective: if a trend has been confirmed across multiple blocks (custom-length bar groups), and the price breaks its own structural boundary, a potential reversal or volatility signal is triggered.
🟥 YTK (Uptrend Breakdown) → Price breaks below the lowest low of the most recent block in an uptrend.
🟩 DTK (Downtrend Breakout) → Price breaks above the highest high of the most recent block in a downtrend.
🔍 How It Works
Block Construction: User-defined bar groups (e.g., 6 bars on a 4H chart = 24H blocks).
Trend Validation: At least N consecutive blocks must show higher highs/lows (uptrend) or lower highs/lows (downtrend).
Breakout Test: If the current bar violates the structural limit (MR block high/low), the corresponding signal is plotted.
📉 This logic identifies weakening trends or failed momentum, often preceding reversals or volatility expansions.
⚙️ Features
Adjustable block size and trend confirmation count
Option to use only closed bars (to reduce repaint risk)
Inclusive mode for “<= / >=” logic
Visual signals:
MR Block high/low levels
Trend-colored bars
Arrows for YTK (🔻) and DTK (🔺)
Built-in alerts for automated strategies
🎯 Use Cases
Spotting fakeouts and false breakouts
Identifying trend exhaustion before reversal
Confirming structural support/resistance breaks
Visual tool for discretionary traders
Signal generator for automated systems

FBTBBT (Filtered Black Two Bar Break Through)📘 FBTBBT (Filtered Black Two Bar Break Through)
Overview
FBTBBT is a filtered breakout indicator based on the classical Two Bar Break Through (TBBT) concept.
It generates Buy and Sell signals when price breaks above or below the previous bar’s high/low, but only displays the **first signal in a run** to avoid noise and duplicates.
- Buy Signal → Break above previous high
- Sell Signal → Break below previous low
- Filtered → Only the first signal in a consecutive streak is shown
---
Key Features
1. Filtered Signals
• Avoids repeated identical signals.
• Example: 3 consecutive bars breaking the previous low → only the first bar shows a Sell signal.
2. Confirmation Options
• Real-Time Mode: signals appear intrabar as soon as the breakout happens.
• Close Confirmation: signals appear only after bar close beyond previous high/low (reduces repainting).
3. Visual Aids
• Green “Buy” labels below breakout bars.
• Red “Sell” labels above breakout bars.
• Optional lines for previous bar’s high/low levels.
4. Alerts
• Alerts trigger only on the first filtered signal in each run.
• Messages specify breakout above (Buy) or below (Sell).
---
How to Use
• Add FBTBBT to your TradingView chart.
• Choose Real-Time or Close-Confirmed signals depending on your style.
• Focus on the **first breakout signal**; ignore duplicates until the opposite side appears.
• Combine with trend filters, volume, or higher timeframe context for stronger accuracy.
---
👉 In short:
**FBTBBT = Clean, filtered breakout signals with no noise.**
Perfect for traders who want **precise first-bar breakouts** while avoiding repeated alerts.
Bearish Breakaway Dual Session-FVGInspired by the FVG Concept:
This indicator is built on the Fair Value Gap (FVG) concept, with a focus on Consolidated FVG. Unlike traditional FVGs, this version only works within a defined session (e.g., ETH 18:00–17:00 or RTH 09:30–16:00).
See the Figure below as an example:
Bearish consolidated FVG & Bearish breakaway candle
Begins when a new intraday high is printed. After that, the indicator searches for the 1st bearish breakaway candle, which must have its high below the low of the intraday high candle. Any candles in between are part of the consolidated FVG zone. Once the 1st breakaway forms, the indicator will shades the candle’s range (high to low). Then it will use this candle as an anchor to search for the 2nd, 3rd, etc. breakaways until the session ends.
Session Reset: Occurs at session close.
Repaint Behavior:
If a new intraday (or intra-session) high forms, earlier breakaway patterns are wiped, and the system restarts from the new low.
Counter:
A session-based counter at the top of the chart displays how many bullish consolidated FVGs have formed.
Settings
• Session Setup:
Choose ETH, RTH, or custom session. The indicator is designed for CME futures in New York timezone, but can be adjusted for other markets.
If nothing appears on your chart, check if you loaded it during an inactive session (e.g., weekend/Friday night).
• Max Zones to Show:
Default = 3 (recommended). You can increase, but 3 zones are usually most useful.
• Timeframe:
Best on 1m, 5m, or 15m. (If session range is big, try higher time frame)
Usage:
See this figure as an example
1. Avoid Trading in Wrong Direction
• No Bearish breakaway = No Short trade.
• Prevents the temptation to countertrade in strong uptrends.
2. Catch the Trend Reversal
• When a bearish breakaway appears after an intraday high, it signals a potential reversal.
• You will need adjust position sizing, watch out liquidity hunt, and place stop loss.
• Best entries of your preferred choices: (this is your own trading edge)
Retest
Breakout
Engulf
MA cross over
Whatever your favorite approach
• Reversal signal is the strongest when price stays within/below the breakaway candle’s
range. Weak if it breaks above.
3. Higher Timeframe Confirmation
• 1m can give false reversals if new lows keep forming.
• 5m often provides cleaner signals and avoids premature reversals.
Summary
This indicator offers 3 main advantages:
1. Prevents wrong-direction trades.
2. Confirms trend entry after reversal signals.
3. Filters false positives using higher timeframes.
Failed example:
Usually happen if you are countering a strong trend too early and using 1m time frame
Last Mention:
The indicator is only used for bearish side trading.
Bullish Breakaway Dual Session-Publish-Consolidated FVG
Inspired by the FVG Concept:
This indicator is built on the Fair Value Gap (FVG) concept, with a focus on Consolidated FVG. Unlike traditional FVGs, this version only works within a defined session (e.g., ETH 18:00–17:00 or RTH 09:30–16:00).
Bullish consolidated FVG & Bullish breakaway candle
Begins when a new intraday low is printed. After that, the indicator searches for the 1st bullish breakaway candle, which must have its low above the high of the intraday low candle. Any candles in between are part of the consolidated FVG zone. Once the 1st breakaway forms, the indicator will shades the candle’s range (high to low). Then it will use this candle as an anchor to search for the 2nd, 3rd, etc. breakaways until the session ends.
Session Reset: Occurs at session close.
Repaint Behavior:
If a new intraday (or intra-session) low forms, earlier breakaway patterns are wiped, and the system restarts from the new low.
Counter:
A session-based counter at the top of the chart displays how many bullish consolidated FVGs have formed.
Settings
• Session Setup:

Default = 3 (recommended). You can increase, but 3 zones are usually most useful.
• Timeframe:
Best on 1m, 5m, or 15m. (If session range is big, try higher time frame)
Usage
1. Avoid Trading in Wrong Direction
• No bullish breakaway = No long trade.
• Prevents the temptation to countertrade in strong downtrends.
2. Catch the Trend Reversal
• When a bullish breakaway appears after an intraday low, it signals a potential reversal.
• You will need adjust position sizing, watch out liquidity hunt, and place stop loss.
• Best entries of your preferred choices: (this is your own trading edge)
Retest
Breakout
Engulf
MA cross over
Whatever your favorite approach
• Reversal signal is the strongest when price stays within/above the breakaway candle’s
range. Weak if it breaks below.
3. Higher Timeframe Confirmation
• 1m can give false reversals if new lows keep forming.
• 5m often provides cleaner signals and avoids premature reversals.
Failed Trade Example:
This indicator will repaint if a new intraday session low is updated. So it is possible to have a failed trade. Here is an example from the same session in 1m chart. However, if you enter the trade later at another bullish breakaway candle signal. The loss can be mitigated by the profit.
Therefore you should use smaller position size for your 1st trade. You should also considering using 5m chart to avoid 1m bull trap. In this example, if you use 5m chart, you can totally avoid this failed trade.
If you enter the trade, you will see the intraday low is stop loss hunted. You can also see the 1st bullish breakaway candle is super weak. There are a lot of candles below the breakaway candle low, so it is very possible to fail.
In the next chart, you can see the failed traded get stop loss hunted. However you can enter another trade with huge profit to win back the loss from the 1st trade if you follow the rule.
Summary
This indicator offers 3 main advantages:
1. Prevents wrong-direction trades.
2. Confirms trend entry after reversal signals.
3. Filters false positives using higher timeframes.
How to sharp your edge:
1. ⏳Extreme patience⏳: Do not guess the bottom during a downtrend before a confirmed bullish breakaway candle. If you get caught, have the courage to cut loss. This is literally the most important usage of this indicator. Again, this is the most important rule of this indicator and actually the hardest rule to follow.
2. 🛎Better Entry🛎: After a confirmed bullish breakaway, you will always have a good opportunity to enter the trade using established trading technique. Your edge will come from the position size, draw down, stop loss placement, risk/reward ratio.
3. ✂Cut loss fast✂: If you enter a trade according to the rule, but you are still not making profit for a period of time, and the price is below the low of the breakaway candle. It is very likely you may hit stop loss soon (intraday session low). It won't be a bad idea to cut loss before stop loss hit.
4. 🔂Reentry with confidence after stop loss🔂: a stop loss will not invalidate the indicator. If you see a second chance to reenter, you should still follow the trade guide and rule.
5. 🕔Time frame matter🕔: try 1m, 3m, 5m, 10m, 15m time frame. Over time, you should know what time frame work best for you and the market. Higher time frame will reduce the noise of false positive trade, but it comes with a higher stop loss placement and less max profit, however it may come with a lower draw down. Time frame will matter depending on the range of the session. If the session range is small (<0.5%), lower time frame is good. If session range is big (>1%), 5m time frame is better. Remember to wait for candle to close, if you use higher time frame.
Last Mention:
The indicator is only used for bullish side trading.
Opening Range BreakoutOpen Range Breakout (ORB) – Trading Strategy Documentation
Definition:
The Open Range Breakout (ORB) is a short-term trading strategy that identifies the price range established during the initial period of market opening (typically the first 15 to 60 minutes) and uses the high and low of that range as key reference levels for potential breakout entries.
Components:
Open Range High: The highest price traded during the defined opening period.
Open Range Low: The lowest price traded during the same period.
Breakout Trigger: A price move above the Open Range High or below the Open Range Low, signaling potential continuation momentum.
How It Works:
Define the Opening Period: Select a time window (e.g., 30 minutes) at market open to establish the initial range.
Identify Range Boundaries: Record the high and low prices during this period.
Monitor for Breakout: Watch for price to break and close above the Open Range High (bullish breakout) or below the Open Range Low (bearish breakout).
Enter Trade: Enter long on a confirmed break above the Open Range High, or short on a break below the Open Range Low. Entry may be triggered on a retest of the broken level or with volume confirmation.
Set Stop-Loss and Target:
Stop-loss: Placed just inside the open range (e.g., below the high for long, above the low for short).
Profit target: Based on volatility (e.g., ATR multiple) or support/resistance levels.
Key Assumptions:
Early price action reflects initial market sentiment.
A breakout from this range indicates strong directional momentum likely to continue.
Best Conditions:
High liquidity markets (e.g., major indices, large-cap stocks).
Volatile or news-driven trading sessions.
Used primarily in intraday trading.
Limitations:
Prone to false breakouts during low-volume or choppy markets.
Requires strict risk management due to reliance on timing and confirmation.
Conclusion:
The ORB strategy capitalizes on early market momentum by trading breakouts from the initial price range. Its effectiveness depends on precise range definition, timely execution, and disciplined risk control.
SmartPlusSmartPlus
Overview
The SmartPlus indicator is a complete framework for intraday traders. It combines key market reference points (VWAP, moving averages, and the first 15-minute high/low range) with predictive levels based on historical daily moves. Together, these elements allow traders to build directional bias, spot breakouts, and manage risk throughout the session.
Key Features
1. VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price)
- Plots the intraday VWAP in real time.
- VWAP acts as a central “fair value” reference point for institutional order flow.
- Price trading above VWAP generally suggests bullish bias, while below VWAP leans bearish.
2. Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)
- Two configurable EMAs are included:
- Fast EMA (default: 21 periods)
- Slow EMA (default: 34 periods)
- Each EMA is plotted with a single, user-selectable color for clarity.
- Crossovers or alignment between price, VWAP, and EMAs help define market structure.
3. Smart Bar Coloring
- Candles automatically change color when conditions align:
- Bull Zone: Price above VWAP, Fast EMA, and Slow EMA.
- Bear Zone: Price below VWAP, Fast EMA, and Slow EMA.
- Fluorescent bar coloring helps highlight momentum zones visually without additional analysis.
4. First 15-Minute High/Low/Mid (Automatic)
- Automatically detects the first 15 minutes of each new trading day (no manual input required).
- Plots horizontal lines for:
- First 15-Minute High (green)
- First 15-Minute Low (red)
- Midpoint of that range (gray)
- Once the initial 15-minute window ends, these levels remain projected throughout the session as breakout or support/resistance zones.
- Alerts trigger when price breaks above the high or below the low after the window.
5. Daily Support/Resistance Forecast
- Uses a rolling lookback of recent daily ranges (default: 126 days).
- Tracks average up moves and down moves from the daily open.
- Optionally incorporates standard deviation for wider confidence bands.
- Plots forecast levels above/below the current day’s open for reference.
Trading Logic (How to Use)
- Bullish Bias:
- Price is above VWAP, above both EMAs, and ideally above the first 15-minute high.
- This setup suggests trend continuation or breakout opportunities on the long side.
- Bearish Bias:
- Price is below VWAP, below both EMAs, and ideally below the first 15-minute low.
- This setup suggests downward pressure or breakout opportunities on the short side.
- Neutral / Caution Zone:
- Price caught between VWAP, EMAs, or inside the 15-minute range often signals indecision.
- Best to wait for confirmation or breakout before committing to trades.
Expectations After Using It
- The script provides context and structure, not trading signals.
- It highlights where price is relative to meaningful market levels so traders can act with greater confidence.
- Combining VWAP, EMAs, and the 15-minute breakout framework helps traders stay aligned with the market’s natural rhythm.
Disclaimer
This script is a tool for market analysis and educational purposes only.
It does not constitute financial advice, trading recommendations, or guaranteed profitability.
Markets are inherently risky, and past patterns do not ensure future results.

Confluence AVWAP Breakout RibbonThis advanced indicator overlays up to five Anchored VWAPs—Daily Session, Weekly, Monthly, Prior Swing High, and Prior Swing Low—directly onto your chart. It highlights a "confluence ribbon" between these levels, visually mapping the real-time price zone where institutional activity may cluster. The ribbon is colored dynamically so you can instantly spot which side of value price is breaking towards.
How it works:
• The script automatically recalculates each selected VWAP anchor in real time.
• For swing-high and swing-low anchors, it starts a new VWAP every time a new price swing is confirmed.
• You can enable or disable any anchor via the script’s Inputs panel to suit your trading style or asset.
Entry Signals:
• A long breakout (green up-arrow) triggers only on the first candle that closes above all active VWAP anchors.
• A short breakout (red down-arrow) triggers only on the first close below all active anchors.
• These signals help confirm when price makes a decisive move out of a key value zone, filtering out false or weak breakouts.
How to use:
Add the indicator to any chart or timeframe.
In the Inputs, choose which VWAP anchors to activate.
Watch for the ribbon color and width: a wider ribbon means more confluence between price zones.
Trade signals (arrows) are only painted on the first candle to break out above or below all anchors, making them easy to see and avoiding repaint.
Optional: Set up alerts using the built-in TradingView alerts for each breakout direction.
Customization:
• Toggle each anchor on/off for your preferred strategy.
• Adjust the swing length for pivots.
• Change ribbon opacity for better chart visibility.
Why it’s unique:
• Most VWAP scripts only plot a single line, or show basic session anchors.
• This indicator lets you stack up to five important VWAP anchors and requires consensus: price must clear all active anchors in one move to signal a breakout.
• The live ribbon and dynamic visuals provide clear confluence zones and breakout cues that go beyond traditional VWAP use.
Best practices:
• Works well on all major assets (stocks, crypto, FX, indices) and all chart timeframes.
• For highest reliability, use two or more anchors at a time.
• Consider using alongside your preferred trend or volatility filter.

Volume Breakout SignalsScript by Hanssome
The Volume Breakout Signals indicator is a trading tool designed to identify potential entry points by pinpointing high-momentum price breakouts on your main chart. It operates on a simple but powerful principle: a true breakout should be supported by a significant increase in trading volume.
The indicator plots two primary visual elements on your price chart:
Pivot Highs and Lows: These are marked with green and red circles and represent the most recent significant swing points in the price. They act as dynamic support and resistance levels, and the script watches for the price to break past them.
BUY and SELL Labels: These signals appear directly on the chart to indicate a potential trading opportunity.
A signal is only generated when two specific conditions are met simultaneously:
Price Breakout: A BUY signal requires the price to cross decisively above the most recent pivot high. A SELL signal requires the price to cross below the most recent pivot low.
Volume Confirmation: This price breakout must be accompanied by a recent spike in trading volume. This confirmation suggests strong momentum and conviction behind the move, increasing the probability of a successful breakout.
All the parameters, such as the sensitivity of the pivot points and the definition of a volume spike, can be adjusted in the indicator's settings to fit your specific trading style and the asset you are viewing.
Faytterro Bands Breakout📌 Faytterro Bands Breakout 📌
This indicator was created as a strategy showcase for another script: Faytterro Bands
It’s meant to demonstrate a simple breakout strategy based on Faytterro Bands logic and includes performance tracking.
❓ What Is It?
This script is a visual breakout strategy based on a custom moving average and dynamic deviation bands, similar in concept to Bollinger Bands but with unique smoothing (centered regression) and performance features.
🔍 What Does It Do?
Detects breakouts above or below the Faytterro Band.
Plots visual trade entries and exits.
Labels each trade with percentage return.
Draws profit/loss lines for every trade.
Shows cumulative performance (compounded return).
Displays key metrics in the top-right corner:
Total Return
Win Rate
Total Trades
Number of Wins / Losses
🛠 How Does It Work?
Bullish Breakout: When price crosses above the upper band and stays above the midline.
Bearish Breakout: When price crosses below the lower band and stays below the midline.
Each trade is held until breakout invalidation, not a fixed TP/SL.
Trades are compounded, i.e., profits stack up realistically over time.
📈 Best Use Cases:
For traders who want to experiment with breakout strategies.
For visual learners who want to study past breakouts with performance metrics.
As a template to develop your own logic on top of Faytterro Bands.
⚠ Notes:
This is a strategy-like visual indicator, not an automated backtest.
It doesn't use strategy.* commands, so you can still use alerts and visuals.
You can tweak the logic to create your own backtest-ready strategy.
Unlike the original Faytterro Bands, this script does not repaint and is fully stable on closed candles.
