PulsarStruct Minor PremiumPulsarStruct Minor Premium
Introduction:
PulsarStruct Minor Premium is a powerful market analysis indicator designed for traders focused on lower timeframes and minor market structures. This tool is specifically built to track micro-structures and identify breakouts of key accumulation and distribution zones, helping traders make quick, informed decisions.
Unlike traditional multi-timeframe (HTF or MTF) indicators, PulsarStruct Minor Premium concentrates on local movements within minor structures, giving you an edge in tracking the immediate dynamics of the market.
This indicator is part of a package that includes Orion, Phoenix, and OptiStruct™ Premium from AlbaTherium, making it an ideal complement to these tools. By combining PulsarStruct Minor Premium with the multi-timeframe insights of these other indicators, you can optimize both local and broader market analysis.
Key Features:
Minor structure analysis: Track small market movements and their impacts on critical zones.
Breakout detection: Identify key breakouts from accumulation and distribution levels to anticipate future market movements.
Optimized entry signals: Focus on micro-breakouts and reversals for precise entry opportunities.
Analysis without volume dependency: The indicator operates based purely on price action, independent of volume.
How It Works:
PulsarStruct Minor Premium detects accumulation and distribution zones within minor market structures. By identifying these critical areas, the indicator pinpoints potential breakout levels, signaling traders when a significant shift in the market structure is occurring.
The tool’s logic is built to focus on micro-breakouts, which are often the first signals of trend continuation or reversal. It uses an algorithm that tracks price action across local structures and generates signals based on price movements relative to these key levels.
Practical Examples:
Accumulation and Distribution within a Range:
Imagine a consolidation period within a minor structure where accumulation takes place around a key support level. PulsarStruct Minor Premium marks this zone of interest. As the price starts to break out from the accumulation zone, the indicator signals a potential long entry in alignment with the trend.
Accumulation example: A 1 minute chart shows accumulation around a minor support level, followed by a bullish breakout. The indicator confirms the breakout, signaling a long entry opportunity.
Distribution example: Similarly, in a bearish market, a distribution phase around a key resistance level is followed by a breakout to the downside, confirming a short entry opportunity.
Example:
Accumulation and Distribution Example
Pro-Trend Entry Setup:
When trading with the trend, PulsarStruct Minor Premium helps identify high-probability entry points by detecting breakouts from accumulation or distribution levels. The indicator aligns these breakouts with the prevailing trend, offering precise entry signals.
Pro-trend Long Entry example: In an uptrend, the price pulls back into an accumulation zone, followed by a breakout above a minor high. The indicator detects the breakout, signaling a long entry aligned with the trend.
Pro-trend Short Entry example: In a downtrend, a small distribution phase forms at resistance, and a breakout below a minor support is detected, offering a short entry in line with the trend.
Example:

Support and Resistance Zones (MTF)Support and Resistance Zones (MTF) is a multi-timeframe indicator that identifies support and resistance zones and is highly customizable for precise market analysis. Users can adjust various inputs to adapt the zones to price action, highlighting the most significant and probable zones.
█ USAGE & KEY FEAUTURES
1. Look Back Bars: This setting defines the maximum number of bars that can display a zone, removing old ones that are no longer significant. For example, in the 4-hour FX:GBPUSD chart below, only zones from the last 1000 bars are plotted. This helps reduce noise and eliminate unnecessary zones that could lead to incorrect market analysis.
2. Ranging Periods: On lower timeframes, such as a 1-minute chart, overplotting can become more problematic. As shown in the image below, there are many insignificant zones when the market trends upwards. In such cases, retaining zones only where the market is ranging helps identify potential reversal points and entry opportunities.
By focusing on the last 400 bars in a ranging phase, the market structure and key support and resistance areas become clearer, aiding in potential trade setups. Additionally, the " Plot Zone Touches " feature shows where and how many times each zone has been touched, emphasizing zones with multiple price respects.
In fact, users can remove zones of a specific length that have fewer touches than a set amount (" Minimum Zone Touches "). This feature helps eliminate unnecessary zones from the chart.
3. Plotting Zone Breakouts: Zones can be plotted with breakouts labels and even deleted if broken more than a specified number of times enabling the " Cut On Breakouts " feature. For example, zones broken more than two times and by more than two consecutive bars were removed in the image below. The " Breakout Consecutive Bars " setting helps identify fakeouts by allowing the user to set how many consecutive bars must break the zone to define a breakout.
4. Wick Cleaner: This feature deletes zones formed above or below a wick percentage level, depending on whether it is a support or resistance zone. Without this input, charts could have zones formed from long wicks, as shown below.
5. Other User Inputs:
• Delete Overlapped Zones: Removes zones with a specific percentage of their body inside another zone. If this number is negative, zones that are too close to each other will be deleted.
• Change Color On Breakouts: Changes the zone color when the price is above or below it.
• ATR Multiplier: Adjusts the zone width.
█ CONCLUSION
The primary objective of this indicator is to plot key support and resistance zones while minimizing noise from unnecessary zones. As mentioned at the beginning, this indicator is highly customizable, so feel free to experiment with different settings to optimize its performance.
█ IMPORTANT
This indicator is currently not available for multi-timeframe (MTF) market analysis but will be in the near future.

Scalp Signals [Premium]This Indicator combines RSI and Movinaverage, to help evaluate the optimal trend.
The RSI signal is displayed with different color zones to reflect the value on the chart. This makes field evaluation more efficient.
This indicator Includes moving averages EMA / SMA and Trendline.
EMA+SMA with a default value of 34/89/200/200 ... User can change value and color as required... As ema and SMA both have the same value that's why only three lines are visible, changing the value will reflect other Moving averages.
Trendline work on breakouts with pivot point-based levels, we introduce an indicator returning pivot point-based trendlines with highlighted breakouts. Users can control the steepness of the trendlines as well as their slope calculation method. The indicator also includes integrated alerts for trendlines breakouts.
Settings:
* Display modes EMA, SMA, TRENDLINE
* Type + Length EMA
* Type + Length SMA
* ADVANCED SETTINGS:
* Length: Pivot points period
* Slope: Slope steepness, values greater than 1 return a steeper slope. Using a slope of 0 would be equivalent to obtaining levels.
* Slope Calculation Method: Determines how this lope is calculated.
* Show Only Confirmed Breakouts: Only shows confirmed breakouts when enabled.
Usage
Any valid trendlines methodology can be used with the indicator, users can identify breakouts in order to infer future price movements.
Break labels highlight breakouts and are delayed by length bars (with the exception of breakouts with the dashed trendlines which are not delayed). By default the indicator shows any breakouts, toggling on "Show Only Confirmed Breakouts" will allow showing only significant ones. Note that this will not affect breakouts with the dashed trendlines.
The calculation method of the slope greatly affects the trendline's behaviors. By default, an average true range is used, returning a consistent slope amongst trendlines. Other methods might return trendlines with significantly different slopes.
Volume Status by BobRivera990This indicator is a tool that shows a relative view of the trading volume and classifies the volume into 5 different levels and makes it easy to compare it in different periods.
It is also specifically designed for detecting failed (fake) breakouts.
How it works?
This tool uses something similar to Bollinger Bands , but with more bands.
I used two standard deviations (positive and negative) on either side of a simple moving average ( SMA ) of the trading volume .
I also used twice the standard deviation (negative and positive) on either side of the SMA to create more bands.
The classification is made as follows:
Usage:
This indicator is a tool to compare the volume , relatively and in different periods. It is also a good tool for detecting failed (fake) breakouts.
Fake Breakouts Occurs when a support or resistance is broken but the market does not accept and support these price changes. This lack of support will cause trading volume to decrease during or after the breakout.
So, if the indicator shows Low-Volume or Minor-Volume status at the time of the breakout or right after that, it may be a fake breakout.
The truth is you cannot avoid false breakouts completely as long as you trade breakouts but you can minimize the risk and the loss.
Thank you all for forming this unique community.
Parameters:
" Volume SMA Length " => The length of the simple moving average of the Volume
NY HIGH LOW BREAKNY HIGH LOW BREAK: A New York Session Breakout Strategy
The "NY HIGH LOW BREAK" indicator is a powerful TradingView script designed to identify and capitalize on breakout opportunities during the New York trading session. This strategy focuses on the initial price action of the New York market open, looking for clear breaches of the high or low established within the first 30 minutes. It's particularly suited for intraday traders who seek to capture momentum-driven moves.
Strategy Logic
The core of the "NY HIGH LOW BREAK" strategy revolves around these key components:
New York Session Opening Range Identification:
The script first identifies the opening range of the New York session. This is defined by the high and low prices established during the first 30 minutes of the New York trading session (from 7:01 AM GMT-4 to 7:31 AM GMT-4).
These crucial levels are then extended forward on the chart as horizontal lines, serving as potential support and resistance zones.
Breakout Signal Generation:
Long Signal: A buy signal is generated when the price breaks above the high of the New York opening range. Specifically, it looks for a candle whose open and close are both above the highLinePrice, and importantly, the previous candle's open was below and close was above the highLinePrice. This indicates a strong upward momentum confirming the breakout.
Short Signal: Conversely, a sell signal is generated when the price breaks below the low of the New York opening range. It looks for a candle whose open and close are both below the lowLinePrice, and the previous candle's open was above and close was below the lowLinePrice. This suggests strong downward momentum confirming the breakdown.
Supertrend Filter (Implicit/Future Enhancement):
While the supertrend and direction variables are present in the code, they are not actively used in the current signal generation logic. This suggests a potential future enhancement where the Supertrend indicator could be incorporated as a trend filter to confirm breakout directions, adding an extra layer of confluence to the signals. For example, only taking long breakouts when Supertrend indicates an uptrend, and short breakouts when Supertrend indicates a downtrend.
Second Candle Confirmation (Possible Future Enhancement):
The close_sec_candle function and openSEC, closeSEC variables indicate an attempt to capture the open and close of a "second candle" (30 minutes after the initial New York open). Currently, closeSEC is used in a specific condition for signal_way but not directly in the primary longSignal or shortSignal logic. This also suggests a potential future refinement where the price action of this second candle could be used for further confirmation or specific entry criteria.
Time-Based Filtering:
Signals are only considered valid within a specific trading window from 8:00 AM GMT-4 to 8:00 AM GMT-4 + 16 * 30 minutes (which is 480 minutes, or 8 hours) on 1-minute and 5-minute timeframes. This ensures that trades are taken during the most active and volatile periods of the New York session, avoiding late-session chop.
The script also highlights the New York session and lunch hours using background colors, providing visual context to the trading day.
Key Features
Automated New York Open Range Detection: The script automatically identifies and plots the high and low of the first 30 minutes of the New York trading session.
Clear Breakout Signals: Visually distinct "BUY" and "SELL" labels appear on the chart when a breakout occurs, making it easy to spot trading opportunities.
Timeframe Adaptability: While optimized for 1-minute and 5-minute timeframes for signal generation, the opening range lines can be displayed on various timeframes.
Customizable Risk-to-Reward (RR): The rr input allows users to define their preferred risk-to-reward ratio for potential trades, although it's not directly implemented in the current signal or trade management logic. This could be used by traders for manual trade management.
Visual Session and Lunch Highlights: The script colors the background to clearly delineate the New York trading session and the lunch break, helping traders understand the market context.
How to Use
Apply the Indicator: Add the "NY HIGH LOW BREAK" indicator to your chart on TradingView.
Select a Relevant Timeframe: For optimal signal generation, use 1-minute or 5-minute timeframes.
Observe the Opening Range: The green and red lines represent the high and low of the first 30 minutes of the New York session.
Look for Breakouts: Wait for price to decisively break above the green line (for a buy) or below the red line (for a sell).
Confirm Signals: The "BUY" or "SELL" labels will appear on the chart when the breakout conditions are met within the active trading window.
Implement Your Risk Management: Use your preferred risk management techniques, including stop-loss and take-profit levels, in conjunction with the signals generated. The rr input can guide your manual risk-to-reward calculations.
Potential Enhancements & Considerations
Supertrend Confirmation: Integrating the supertrend variable to filter signals would significantly enhance the strategy's robustness by aligning trades with the prevailing trend.
Stop-Loss and Take-Profit Automation: The rr input currently serves as a manual guide. Future versions could integrate automated stop-loss and take-profit placement based on this ratio, potentially using ATR for dynamic sizing.
Volume Confirmation: Adding a volume filter to confirm breakouts would ensure that only high-conviction moves are traded.
Backtesting and Optimization: Thorough backtesting across various assets and market conditions is crucial to determine the optimal settings and profitability of this strategy.
Session Times: The current session times are hardcoded. Making these user-definable inputs would allow for greater flexibility across different time zones and trading preferences.
The "NY HIGH LOW BREAK" is a straightforward yet effective strategy for capturing initial New York session momentum. By focusing on clear breakout levels, it aims to provide timely and actionable trading signals for intraday traders.

║ User Guide ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
#### Overview
This indicator detects liquidity zones and support/resistance (S&R) levels
using pivot points and volume analysis. Liquidity zones highlight areas of
high trading activity, often targeted by institutional traders. S&R levels
indicate key price levels where price may reverse or break, with breakouts
confirmed by a volume oscillator. The indicator is designed for traders
seeking to trade breakouts or reversals at critical levels.
#### Features

Volume-RSI Colored Bars
The Volume Indicator, used in conjunction with the embedded Relative Strength Index (RSI), is a powerful tool for making informed trading decisions. Let’s break down how this indicator works and how it can assist you in your trading strategy.
Volume Indicator:
The Volume Indicator tracks the volume of trades occurring in a specific timeframe. Volume shows the number of shares or contracts traded, which can reveal the strength of a price move. If price is moving higher with increasing volume, it generally confirms that the move has more strength, indicating the potential for continuation. Conversely, if the price is moving lower with increasing volume, it indicates strong bearish momentum.
Volume Clusters:
In the chart, we can see various volume clusters highlighted in green, red, and grey. The green bars represent high volume, which can signal strong buying pressure. The red bars represent low volume, signaling that selling pressure is low. Grey bars indicate average volume.
High Volume (Green Bars): High buying pressure, indicating that there may be a strong move in the direction of the price.
Low Volume (Red Bars): Potential signal for a weak move, indicating a lack of participation in the current trend.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
RSI is a momentum oscillator that indicates whether a market is overbought or oversold. The RSI ranges from 0 to 100, with readings above 70 suggesting an overbought market and readings below 30 suggesting an oversold market.
The RSI is also embedded in the indicator to give a better context when combined with volume. It adds an extra layer of analysis to interpret the price action.
How to Use Volume Indicator with RSI:
Confirming Breakouts:
If you see a breakout in price (an upward movement or downward movement) and the volume indicator shows high volume, this confirms the strength of the breakout.
If the RSI also supports the breakout (for example, it is crossing above 50 or above 70 for an uptrend), it further validates the trade.
Identifying Reversals:
When the price is reaching overbought or oversold levels (RSI above 70 or below 30) and there is low volume (red bars), this may indicate a potential reversal.
If the price is oversold and RSI shows values below 30 with increasing volume (green bars), this could signal a potential buying opportunity as a reversal might occur.
Volume Divergence:
If the price is making new highs, but the volume is declining (red bars), it may signal weakness in the trend, despite the RSI indicating strength. This divergence can help traders anticipate a potential reversal or breakout.
Example from the Chart:
Strong Buy Signal: The price is making an upward movement, the volume bars are turning green (indicating strong buying pressure), and RSI is rising above 50.
Bearish Divergence: You may see RSI moving higher, but volume bars are turning red (indicating weak momentum). This could signal that the upward movement lacks strength, suggesting a potential reversal.
By combining these two indicators, the Volume Indicator and the RSI, traders can make more informed decisions on whether the current trend is sustainable, or if a reversal or breakout is likely.
In conclusion, using the Volume Indicator and RSI together allows for:
Identifying high-volume breakouts and reversals
Filtering out weak price movements
Confirming trends with volume and momentum
This combination enhances trading strategies by providing clear signals of market strength or weakness, helping traders optimize their entry and exit points effectively.
Eze Profit Range Detection FilterThe Range Detection Filter is a technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify range-bound market conditions and focus on breakout opportunities. It combines the ATR (Average True Range) for volatility analysis and the ADX (Average Directional Index) for trend strength evaluation to highlight consolidation phases and alert traders when the market is ready to break out.
This indicator provides visual cues and customizable alerts, making it suitable for traders looking to avoid false signals during choppy markets and capitalize on trending moves following a breakout.
What Makes It Unique?
ATR for Volatility:
Measures market volatility by comparing ATR with its moving average.
Consolidation phases are flagged when ATR remains below its moving average for a sustained period.
ADX for Trend Strength:
Monitors trend strength, confirming range-bound conditions when ADX falls below a user-defined threshold (default: 20).
Combines with ATR to ensure accurate detection of trendless periods.
Breakout Alerts:
Notifies traders of breakout opportunities when the price moves outside the highest high or lowest low of the range.
How It Works:
Range Detection:
The market is considered "in range" when:
ATR is below its moving average, indicating low volatility.
ADX is below the threshold, confirming a lack of trend strength.
Visual Indication:
A yellow background highlights range-bound conditions, allowing traders to avoid low-probability trades.
Breakout Detection:
Alerts are triggered for breakouts above or below the range to help traders identify potential opportunities.
Features:
Range Highlighting:
Automatically detects and highlights range-bound markets using a yellow background.
Breakout Alerts:
Sends alerts for breakouts above or below the range once the market exits consolidation.
Customizable Inputs:
ATR length, moving average length, and ADX parameters are fully adjustable to adapt to various trading styles and asset classes.
Multi-Timeframe Compatibility:
Suitable for all markets and timeframes, including stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies.
How to Use:
Identify Ranges:
Avoid trading when the yellow background appears, signaling a range-bound market.
Focus on Breakouts:
Look for alerts indicating breakouts above or below the range for potential trending opportunities.
Combine with Other Indicators:
Use volume analysis, momentum oscillators, or candlestick patterns to confirm breakout signals.
Credits:
This script utilizes widely accepted methodologies for ATR and ADX calculations. ADX is calculated manually using directional movement (+DI and -DI) for precise trend detection. The concept has been adapted and enhanced to create this comprehensive range-detection tool.
Notes:
This indicator is intended for educational purposes and should not be used as standalone financial advice.

Historical Price Levels: Week, Month, QuarterDescription:
The Historical Highs and Lows: Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly Levels indicator is designed to mark significant price levels based on the highest and lowest prices within specific historical time periods. This indicator provides insights into key price points from multiple timeframes: weekly, monthly, and quarterly. It is ideal for traders who want to monitor and analyze the critical support and resistance levels that may influence price movement.
This indicator draws horizontal lines from the highest and lowest price points of past weeks, months, and quarters, extending 10 candles into the future from these critical price levels. The indicator also provides labels to mark each of these levels, making it easy to identify important turning points in the price chart.
Key Features:
Historical Highs and Lows: The indicator marks the highest and lowest prices for each specified period—weekly, monthly, and quarterly—up to the last closed week, month, or quarter.
Dynamic Lines: The lines are drawn from the historical high/low points and extended to the right by 10 candles, representing potential future price levels of interest.
Labels: The indicator provides labels such as "Week X High", "Month X Low", and "Quarter X High", placed on the right side of the chart to highlight each significant level.
Customizable: Users can adjust the appearance of the lines, including the line style and color, to match their preferences.
Multi-Timeframe Support: The indicator works across all timeframes, ensuring that users can view relevant historical levels regardless of their chart's resolution.
How to Use:
Support and Resistance: The high and low levels marked by this indicator can act as key support and resistance zones. Price action may reverse when it approaches these levels, as they represent significant price points where the market has reversed in the past.
Reversal Points: Price often reacts strongly when it reaches these historical highs or lows. Traders can use these levels to anticipate potential reversals or breakouts.
Market Analysis: By identifying the key high and low points of different timeframes, traders can gain a deeper understanding of the market’s past behavior and use this information to make more informed trading decisions.
Usage Strategy:
Price Reversals: When price approaches one of the historical high or low levels, watch for signs of reversal, such as candlestick patterns (e.g., Doji, Engulfing) or other technical indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD). These levels often act as strong barriers, and price can reverse at these points.
Breakouts: If the price breaks through these levels, it could signal the beginning of a new trend. For example, a breakout above a historical high may suggest bullish momentum, while a breakdown below a historical low may indicate a bearish trend.
Conclusion:
The Historical Highs and Lows: Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly Levels indicator is a powerful tool for traders looking to understand and monitor key price levels. By identifying significant price points from multiple timeframes, traders can use this information to predict potential price reversals or breakouts. Given the nature of these levels, price often reacts near them, providing valuable opportunities for entry and exit points.
Bollinger Band Squeeze with Dotted MidlinesBollinger Band Squeeze with Dotted Midlines
Overview:
The Bollinger Band Squeeze with Dotted Midlines indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify periods of low volatility in the market, known as "squeeze" conditions, which often precede significant price movements. By combining Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels, this indicator highlights when the market is consolidating and prepares traders for potential breakouts.
Key Features:
• Squeeze Detection: The indicator fills the area between the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels with a semi-transparent red color when both the upper and lower Bollinger Bands are within the Keltner Channels. This visual cue signifies a squeeze condition.
• Dynamic Color Filling: When the Bollinger Bands move outside the Keltner Channels, the fill color changes to a semi-transparent white, indicating the end of the squeeze and the potential start of increased volatility.
• Enhanced Visual Clarity:
o Upper and Lower Bands: The upper and lower lines of both the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels are plotted with increased thickness (3pt) for better visibility.
o Midlines with Dotted Effect: The middle lines (50% lines) for both the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels are plotted as dotted lines using circles with a thinner line width (1pt), providing a clear yet unobtrusive reference point.
Indicator Components:
1. Bollinger Bands (Orange Lines):
o Upper Bollinger Band: Calculated as the moving average plus a multiple of the standard deviation.
o Lower Bollinger Band: Calculated as the moving average minus a multiple of the standard deviation.
o Middle Bollinger Band: The simple moving average (SMA) of the closing price.
2. Keltner Channels (White Lines):
o Upper Keltner Channel: Calculated as the exponential moving average (EMA) plus a multiple of the average true range (ATR).
o Lower Keltner Channel: Calculated as the EMA minus a multiple of the ATR.
o Middle Keltner Channel: The EMA of the closing price.
3. Squeeze Condition Fill:
o Red Fill (40% Opacity): Indicates a squeeze condition where the Bollinger Bands are entirely within the Keltner Channels.
o White Fill (40% Opacity): Indicates normal market conditions where the Bollinger Bands have moved outside the Keltner Channels.
How to Use:
1. Identifying Squeeze Conditions:
o Look for Red Filled Areas: When you see the area between the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels filled in semi-transparent red, it signals a squeeze condition. This means the market is experiencing low volatility and may be preparing for a significant move.
2. Preparing for Potential Breakouts:
o Monitor for Fill Color Changes: A transition from red to white fill suggests that the squeeze is ending, and volatility is increasing. Traders often interpret this as a potential opportunity for a breakout in either direction.
3. Utilizing Midlines:
o Reference Midlines for Trend Direction: The dotted midlines provide insight into the overall trend. Crossing of the price above or below these lines can offer additional confirmation for trading decisions.
Customization Options:
• Bollinger Bands Settings:
o Length: Default is 20 periods. Adjust to change the sensitivity of the bands.
o Multiplier: Default is 2.0. Modify to increase or decrease the band width based on standard deviation.
• Keltner Channels Settings:
o Length: Default is 20 periods. Alter to adjust the responsiveness of the channels.
o Multiplier: Default is 1.5. Change to widen or narrow the channels based on average true range.
Advantages:
• Visual Clarity: Enhanced line thickness and semi-transparent fills make it easy to spot key market conditions at a glance.
• Early Warning System: By identifying squeeze conditions, traders can anticipate potential breakouts and plan their strategies accordingly.
• Flexible Application: Suitable for various timeframes and trading styles, including day trading, swing trading, and position trading.
Limitations:
• False Signals: Like all technical indicators, it may produce false signals, especially in choppy or range-bound markets.
• Should Be Used with Other Indicators: For better accuracy, it's recommended to use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and not as a standalone signal generator.
Conclusion:
The Bollinger Band Squeeze with Dotted Midlines indicator is a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit. By effectively highlighting periods of consolidation and potential breakout points, it aids in making informed trading decisions. The visual enhancements improve usability, allowing traders to quickly interpret market conditions and respond appropriately.
RBS | Profitholders Thanks for source code author , I have modified this for especially Indian market.
RBS Indicator is Rang Breakout System, This is same "Opening Range Breakout" which is a common trading strategy. The indicator can analyze the market trend in the current session and give "Buy / Sell", "Take Profit" and "Stop Loss" signals. For more information about the analyzing process of the indicator, you can read "How Does It Work ?" section of the description.
Features of RBS indicator :
Buy & Sell Signals
Up To 3 Take Profit Signals
Stop-Loss Signals
Alerts for Buy / Sell, Take-Profit and Stop-Loss

Back testing Dashboard
HOW DOES IT WORK ?
This indicator works best in 15-minute timeframe. Need to change Chart time frame depends on symbols , The idea is that the trend of the current session can be forecasted by analyzing the market for a while after the session starts. However, each market has it's own dynamics and the algorithm will need fine-tuning to get the best performance possible. So, we've implemented a "Back testing Dashboard" that shows the past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker with your current settings. Always keep in mind that past performance does not guarantee future results. So this is for educational purpose.
Here are the steps of the algorithm explained briefly :
1. The algorithm follows and analyzes the first 15 minutes (can be adjusted) of the session.
2. Then, algorithm checks for breakouts of the opening range's high or low.
3. If a breakout happens in a bullish or a bearish direction, the algorithm will now check for retests of the breakout. Depending on the sensitivity setting, there must be 0 / 1 / 2 / 3 failed retests for the breakout to be considered as reliable.
4. If the breakout is reliable, the algorithm will give an entry signal.
5. After the position entry, algorithm will now wait for Take-Profit or Stop-Loss zones and signal if any of them occur.
If you wonder how does the indicator find Take-Profit & Stop-Loss zones, you can check the "Settings" section of the description.
UNIQUENESS
While there are indicators that show the opening range of the session, they come short with features like indicating breakouts, entries, and Take-Profit & Stop-Loss zones. We are also aware of that different stock markets have different dynamics, and tuning the algorithm for different markets is really important for better results, so we decided to make the algorithm fully customizable. Besides all that, our indicator contains a detailed back testing dashboard, so you can see past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker. While past performance does not yield any guarantee for future results, we believe that a back testing dashboard is necessary for tuning the algorithm. Another strength of this indicator is that there are multiple options for detection of Take-Profit and Stop-Loss zones, which the trader can select one of their liking.

1. Algorithm
RBS Timeframe -> This setting determines the timeframe that the algorithm will analyze the market after a new session begins before giving any signals. It's important to experiment with this setting and find the best option that suits the current ticker for the best performance. More volatile stocks will often require this setting to be larger, while more stabilized stocks may have this setting shorter.
Sensitivity -> This setting determines how much failed retests are needed to take a position entry. Higher sensitivity means that less retests are needed to consider the breakout as reliable. If you think that the current ticker makes strong movements in a bullish & bearish direction after a breakout, you should set this setting higher. If you think the opposite, meaning that the ticker does not decide the trend right after a breakout, this setting show be lower.
(High = 0 Retests, Medium = 1 Retest, Low = 2 Retests, Lowest = 3 Retests)
Breakout Condition -> The condition for the algorithm to detect breakouts.
Close = Bar needs to close higher than the OR High Line in a bullish breakout, or lower than the OR Low Line in a bearish breakout. EMA = The EMA of the bar must be higher / lower than OR Lines instead of the close price.
TP Method -> The method for the algorithm to use when determining TP zones.
Dynamic = This TP method essentially tries to find the bar that price starts declining the current trend and going to the other direction, and puts a TP zone there. To achieve this, it uses an EMA line, and when the close price of a bar crosses the EMA line, It's a TP spot.
ATR = In this TP method, instead of a dynamic approach the TP zones are pre-determined using the ATR of the entry bar. This option is generally for traders who just want to know their TP spots beforehand while trading. Selecting this option will also show TP zones at the ORB Dashboard.
"Dynamic" option generally performs better, while the "ATR" method is safer to use.
EMA Length -> This setting determines the length of the EMA line used in "Dynamic TP method" and "EMA Breakout Condition". This is completely up to the trader's choice, though the default option should generally perform well. You might want to experiment with this setting and find the optimal length for the current ticker.
Stop-Loss -> Algorithm will place the Stop-Loss zone using setting.
Safer = The SL zone will be placed closer to the OR High for a bullish entry, and closer to the OR Low for a bearish entry.
Balanced = The SL zone will be placed in the center of OR High & OR Low
Risky = The SL zone will be placed closer to the OR Low for a bullish entry, and closer to the OR High for a bearish entry.
Adaptive SL -> This option only takes effect if the first TP zone is hit.
Enabled = After the 1st TP zone is hit, the SL zone will be moved to the entry price, essentially making the position risk-free.
Disabled = The SL zone will never change.
2. RBS Dashboard
RBS Dashboard shows the information about the current session.
3. RBS Back testing
RBS Back testing Dashboard allows you to see past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker with current settings.
Total amount of days that can be back tested depends on your TV subscription.
Back testing Exit Ratios -> You can select how much of percent your entry will be closed at any TP zone while back testing. For example, %90, %5, %5 means that %90 of the position will be closed at the first TP zone, %5 of it will be closed at the 2nd TP zone, and %5 of it will be closed at the last TP zone.

Smart Volatility Squeeze + Trend Filter📌 Purpose
This indicator detects volatility squeeze conditions when Bollinger Bands contract inside Keltner Channels and signals potential breakout opportunities.
It also includes an optional EMA-based trend filter to align signals with the dominant market direction.
🧠 How It Works
1. Squeeze Condition
Bollinger Bands (BB): Length = 20, StdDev = 2.0 (default)
Keltner Channels (KC): EMA Length = 20, ATR Multiplier = 1.5 (default)
Squeeze ON: Occurs when BB Upper < KC Upper and BB Lower > KC Lower (low volatility zone).
2. Breakout Signals
Long Breakout: Price crosses above BB Upper after squeeze.
Short Breakout: Price crosses below BB Lower after squeeze.
3. Trend Filter (optional)
EMA(50) used to confirm breakout direction:
Long signals allowed only if price > EMA(50)
Short signals allowed only if price < EMA(50)
Toggle Use Trend Filter to enable/disable.
4. Visual & Alerts
Green circle at chart bottom indicates Squeeze ON.
Green/Red triangles mark breakouts.
Background gradually brightens during squeeze buildup.
Alerts available for long and short breakouts.

Pristine Value Areas & MGIThe Pristine Value Areas indicator enables users to perform comprehensive technical analysis through the lens of the market profile in a fraction of the time! 🏆
A Market Profile is a charting technique devised by J. Peter Steidlmayer, a trader at the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), in the 1980's. He created it to gain a deeper understanding of market behavior and to analyze the auction process in financial markets. A market profile is used to analyze an auction using price, volume, and time to create a distribution-based view of trading activity. It organizes market data into a bell-curve-like structure, which reveals areas of value, balance, and imbalance.
💠 How is a Value Area Calculated?
A value area is a distribution of 68%-70% of the trading volume over a specific time interval, which represents one standard deviation above and below the point of control, which is the most highly traded level over that period.
The key reference points are as follows:
Value area low (VAL) - The lower boundary of a value area
Value area high (VAH) - The upper boundary of a value area
Point of Control (POC) - The price level at which the highest amount of a trading period's volume occurred
If we take the probability distribution of trading activity and flip it 90 degrees, the result is our Pristine Value Area!
Market Profile is our preferred method of technical analysis at Pristine Capital because it provides an objective and repeatable assessment of whether an asset is being accumulated or distributed by institutional investors. Market Profile levels work remarkably well for identifying areas of interest, because so many institutional trading algorithms have been programmed to use these levels since the 1980's!
The benefits of using Market Profile include better trade location, improved risk management, and enhanced market context. It helps traders differentiate between trending and consolidating markets, identify high-probability trade setups, and adjust their strategies based on whether the market is in balance (consolidation) or imbalance (trending). Unlike traditional indicators that rely on past price movements, Market Profile provides real-time insights into trader behavior, giving an edge to those who can interpret its nuances effectively.
Virgin Point of Control (VPOC) - A point of control from a previous time period that has not yet been revisited in subsequent periods. VPOCs are great for identifying prior supply or demand zones.
Below is a great example of price reversing lower after taking out an upside VPOC
💠 Are all POCs Created Equal?
If POCs are used to gauge supply & demand zones at key levels, then a POC with higher volume should be viewed as more significant than a POC that traded lower volume, right? We created Golden POCs as a tool to identify high volume POCs on all timeframes.
Golden POC (GPOC) - A POC that traded the highest volume compared to prior POCs (proprietary to Pristine Capital)
We calculate value areas for the following time intervals based on the user selected timeframe:
5 Minute and 15 Minute Timeframes -> Daily Value Area
The daily value area paints the distribution of the PRIOR session's trading activity. The "d" in the label references for VAHd, POCd and VALd is a visual cue that value area shown is daily.
1 Hour Timeframe -> Weekly Value Area
The weekly value area paints the distribution of the PRIOR week's trading activity. The "w" in the label references for VAHw, POCw and VALw is a visual cue that value area shown is weekly.
1 Day Timeframe -> Monthly Value Area
The monthly value area paints the distribution of the PRIOR month's trading activity. The "m" in the label references for VAHm, POCm and VALm is a visual cue that value area shown is monthly.
1 Week Timeframe -> Yearly Value Area
The yearly value area paints the distribution of the PRIOR year's trading activity. The "y" in the label references for VAHy, POCy and VALy is a visual cue that value area shown is yearly.
💠 What is a developing value area?
The developing value area provides insight into the upcoming value area while it is still forming! It appears when 80% of the way through the current value area. As the end of a trading period approaches, it can make sense to start trading off the developing value area. When the time period flips, the developing value area becomes the active value area!
💠 Value Areas Trading Setups
Two popular market profile concepts are the bullish and bearish 80% rules. The concept is that there is an 80% probability that the market will traverse the entire relevant value area.
Bullish 80% Rule - If a security opens a period below the value area low , and subsequently closes above it, the bullish 80% rule triggers, turning the value area green. One can trade for a move to the top of the value area, using a close below the value area low as a potential stop!
In the below example, HOOD triggered the bullish 80% rule after it reclaimed the monthly value area!
HOOD proceeded to rally through the monthly value area and beyond in subsequent trading sessions. Finding the first stocks to trigger the bullish 80% rule after a market correction is key for spotting the next market leaders!
Bearish 80% Rule - If a security opens a period above the value area high , and subsequently closes below it, the bearish 80% rule triggers, turning the value area red. One can trade for a move to the bottom of the value area, using a close above the value area high as a potential stop!
ES proceeded to follow through and test the value area low before trending below the weekly value area
Value Area Breakouts - When a security is inside of value, the auction is in balance. When it breaks out from a value area, it could be entering a period of price discovery. One can trade these breaks out of value with tight risk control by setting a stop inside the value area! These breakouts can be traded on all chart timeframes depending on the timeframe of the individual trader. Combining multiple timeframes can result in even more effective trading setups.
RBLX broke out from the monthly value area on 4/22/25👇
RBLX proceeded to rally +62.78% in 39 trading sessions following the monthly VAH breakout!
💠 Market Generated Information to Improve Your Situational Awareness!
In addition to the value areas, we've also included stat tables with useful market generated information. The stats displayed vary based on the timeframe the user has up on their screen. This incentivizes traders to check the chart on multiple timeframes before taking a trade!
Metrics Grouped By Use Case
Performance
▪ YTD α - YTD Alpha (α) measures the risk-adjusted, excess return of a security over its user defined benchmark, on a year-to-date basis.
▪ MTD α - MTD Alpha (α) measures the risk-adjusted, excess return of a security over its user defined benchmark, on a month-to-date basis.
▪ WTD α - WTD Alpha (α) measures the risk-adjusted, excess return of a security over its user defined benchmark, on a week-to-date basis.
▪ YTD %Δ - Year-to-date percent change in price
▪ MTD %Δ - Month-to-date percent change in price
▪ WTD %Δ - Week-to-date percent change in price
Volatility
▪ ATR % - The Average True Range (ATR) expressed as a percentage of an asset's price.
▪ Beta - Measures the price volatility of a security compared to the S&P 500 over the prior 5 years (since inception if 5 years of data is not available)
Risk Analysis
▪ LODx - Low-of-day extension - ATR % multiple from the low of day (measures how extended a stock is from its low of day)
▪ MAx - Moving average extension - ATR % multiple from the user-defined moving average (measures how extended a security is from its moving average). Default moving average = 50D SMA
Why does MAx matter?
MAx measures the number of ATR % multiples a security is trading away from a key moving average. The default moving average length is 50 days.
MAx can be used to identify mean reversion trades . When a security trends strongly in one direction and moves significantly above or below its moving average, the price often tends to revert back toward the average.
Example, if the ATR % of the security is 5%, and the stock is trading 50% higher than the 50D SMA, the MAx would be 50%/5% = 10. A user might opt to take a countertrend trade when the MAx exceeds a predetermined level.
The MAx can also be useful when trading breakouts above or below the key moving average of your choosing. The lower the MAx, the tighter stop loss one can take if trading against that level.

💠 Trend Analysis
The Trend Analysis section consists of short-term and long-term stage analysis data as well as the value area timeframe and price in relation to the value area.
Stage Analysis
▪ ST ⇅ - Short-term stage analysis indicator
▪ LT ⇅ - Long-term stage analysis indicator
Short-term and long-term stage analysis data is provided in the two rightmost columns of each table. The columns are labeled ST ⇅ and LT ⇅.
Why is Stage Analysis important? Popularized by Stan Weinstein, stage analysis is a trend following system that classifies assets into four stages based on price-trend analysis.
The problem? The interpretation of stage analysis is highly subjective. Based on the methodology provided in Stan Weinstein’s books, five different traders could look at the same chart, and come to different conclusions as to which stage the security is in!
We solved for this by creating our own methodology for classifying stocks into stages using moving averages. This indicator automates that analysis, and produces short-term and long-term trend signals based on user-defined key moving averages. You won’t find this in any textbook or course, because it’s completely unique to the Pristine trading methodology.
Our indicator calculates a short-term trend signal using two moving averages; a fast moving average, and a slow moving average. We default to the 10D EMA as the fast moving average & the 20D SMA as the slow moving average. A trend signal is generated based on where price is currently trading with respect to the fast moving average and the slow moving average. We use the signal to guide shorter-term swing trades.
In general, we want to take long trades in stocks with strengthening trends, and short trades in stocks with weakening trends. The user is free to change the moving averages based on their own short-term timeframe. Every trader is unique!
The same process is applied to calculate the long-term trend signal. We default to the 50D SMA as our fast moving average, and the 200D SMA as the slow moving average for the LT ⇅ signal calculation, but users can change these to fit their own unique trading style.
What is Stage 1?
Stage 1 identifies stocks that transitioned from downtrends, into bottoming bases.
Stage 1A - Bottom Signal: Marks the first day a security shows initial signs of recovery after a downtrend, with early indications of strength emerging.👇
Stage 1B - Bottoming Process: Identifies the ongoing phase where the security continues to stabilize and strengthen, confirming the base-building process after the initial signal.👇
Stage 1R - Failed Uptrend: Detects when a security that had entered an early uptrend loses momentum and slips back into a bottoming phase, signaling a failed breakout.👇
What is Stage 2?
Stage 2 identifies stocks that transitioned from bottoming bases to uptrends.
Stage 2A - Breakout: Marks the first day a security decisively breaks out, signaling the start of a new uptrend.👇
Stage 2B - Uptrend: Identifies when the security continues to trade in an established uptrend following the initial breakout, with momentum building but not yet showing full strength.👇
Stage 2C - Strong Uptrend: Detects when the uptrend strengthens further, with the security displaying clear signs of accelerating strength and buying pressure.👇
Stage 2R - Failed Breakdown: Detects when a security that had recently entered a corrective phase reverses course and reclaims its upward trajectory, moving back into an uptrend.👇
What is Stage 3?
Stage 3 identifies stocks that transitioned from uptrends to topping bases.
Stage 3A - Top Signal: Marks the first day a security shows initial signs of weakness after an uptrend, indicating the start of a potential topping phase.👇
Stage 3B - Topping Process: Identifies the period following the initial signal when the security continues to show signs of distribution and potential trend exhaustion.👇
Stage 3R - Failed Breakdown: Detects when a security that had entered a deeper corrective phase reverses upward, recovering enough strength to re-enter the topping phase.👇
What is Stage 4?
Stage 4 identifies stocks that transitioned from topping bases to downtrends.
Stage 4A - Breakdown: Marks the first day a security decisively breaks below key support levels, signaling the start of a new downward trend.👇
Stage 4B - Downtrend: Identifies when the security continues to trend lower following the initial breakdown, with sustained bearish momentum, though not yet fully entrenched.👇
Stage 4C - Strong Downtrend: Detects when the downtrend intensifies, with the security displaying clear signs of accelerating weakness and selling pressure.👇
Stage 4R - Failed Bottom: Detects when a security that had begun to show early signs of bottoming reverses course and resumes its decline, falling back into a downtrend.👇
Stage N/A - Recent IPO: Applies to stocks that recently IPO’ed and don’t have enough data to calculate all necessary moving averages.
Value Area
In Trend Analysis, the value area information is helpful to gauge price in relation to the value area.
▪ VA(y) - Categorizes the security based on the relation of price to the yearly value area
▪ VA(m) - Categorizes the security based on the relation of price to the monthly value area
▪ VA(w) - Categorizes the security based on the relation of price to the weekly value area
Value area states:
▪ ABOVE = Price above the value area high
▪ BELOW = Price below the value area low
▪ INSIDE = Price inside the value area
▪ Bull 80% = Bullish 80% rule in effect
▪ Bear 80% rule = Bearish 80% rule in effect
For example, in the chart above, VA(m) - ABOVE indicates a monthly value area and price is above the VAH.
💠 What Makes This Indicator Unique
There are many value area indicators, however...
Value Area
▪ Golden POC (GPOC) - This is a proprietary concept.
▪ Unique Label Customization
Pristine value areas often comprehensive and unique label customizations. Styles include options to display any combination of the following on your labels:
• Price levels associated with market profile levels

[JHF] SQZMOMPRO SQZMOMPRO is a sophisticated, momentum-based technical indicator designed for traders seeking to identify potential trend reversals, momentum shifts, and periods of market consolidation (squeezes) across multiple timeframes. By combining a momentum oscillator, Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channels, and a Percentage Volume Oscillator (PVO), it provides a comprehensive view of price momentum and volume dynamics.
Overview
The SQZMOMPRO indicator is a powerful tool that integrates momentum analysis, volatility-based squeeze detection, and volume confirmation to help traders identify high-probability trading opportunities. It combines:
A momentum oscillator based on price deviations from a linear regression and moving average.
Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels to detect periods of low volatility (squeezes), signaling potential breakouts.
A Percentage Volume Oscillator (PVO) to confirm momentum signals with volume trends.
A Rate of Change (ROC) line to highlight the speed of momentum shifts.
Visual cues like reversal signals and confluence backgrounds for actionable insights.
This indicator is ideal for swing traders, day traders, and those analyzing trends across multiple timeframes (hourly, 4-hour, daily, weekly, monthly). It is plotted below the price chart (non-overlay) and includes customizable alerts for key conditions.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Support: Automatically adjusts parameters for hourly, 4-hour, daily, weekly, and monthly charts, ensuring optimal settings for each timeframe.
Squeeze Detection: Identifies periods of low volatility (squeezes) using Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels, categorized as Wide, Normal, Narrow, or Very Narrow.
Momentum Oscillator: Tracks price momentum relative to a baseline, with a signal line to highlight trend reversals.
PVO Confluence: Optionally integrates the Percentage Volume Oscillator to confirm momentum signals with volume trends.
Rate of Change (ROC): Displays the smoothed rate of change of momentum for enhanced readability.
Visual Cues: Includes color-coded squeeze dots, momentum/signal lines, reversal markers, and optional confluence backgrounds.
Alerts: Configurable alerts for squeeze conditions, trend reversals, and volume-confirmed signals.
How It Works
1. Momentum Oscillator
The momentum oscillator is calculated as follows:
Source: Closing price.
Baseline: A combination of the midpoint of the highest high and lowest low over a specified period, adjusted by a simple moving average (SMA).
Momentum: Linear regression of the price deviation from this baseline over a timeframe-specific period (shorter for smaller timeframes to be more responsive).
Signal Line: A 5-period SMA of the momentum value, used to identify crossovers.
Interpretation:
Momentum > Signal: Bullish momentum (plotted in green by default).
Momentum < Signal: Bearish momentum (plotted in red by default).
Crossovers: Momentum crossing above the signal line suggests a bullish reversal; crossing below suggests a bearish reversal.
2. Squeeze Detection
Squeezes occur when volatility contracts, often preceding significant price moves. The indicator compares:
Bollinger Bands: Calculated using an SMA and 2 standard deviations of the closing price.
Keltner Channels: Calculated using an SMA and multiples of the Average True Range (ATR) for different squeeze thresholds (Wide, Normal, Narrow, Very Narrow). This method steers away from the likes of classical SQZPRO which only uses an approximation of the Average True Range and heavily affects the squeeze sensitivity due to the way they calculate their Keltner Channel (our Keltner Channel are true to the way they are supposed to be calculated).
Squeeze Conditions:
Wide Squeeze: Bollinger Bands are inside Keltner Channels with a high ATR multiplier.
Normal Squeeze: Bollinger Bands are inside Keltner Channels with a moderate ATR multiplier.
Narrow Squeeze: Bollinger Bands are inside Keltner Channels with a low ATR multiplier.
Very Narrow Squeeze: Bollinger Bands are inside Keltner Channels with a very low ATR.
No Squeeze: Bollinger Bands are outside Keltner Channels, indicating higher volatility.
Depending on the timeframe, each squeeze level has been manually tweaked to gain an edge, whether you're scalping, in swings or in Leaps.
Visuals: Squeeze conditions are plotted as colored dots on the zero line:
Green: No Squeeze
Black: Wide Squeeze
Red: Normal Squeeze
Yellow: Narrow Squeeze
Purple: Very Narrow Squeeze
3. Percentage Volume Oscillator (PVO)
The PVO measures volume momentum, similar to the MACD but applied to volume through a 14 and 28 ema with volume as the srouce.
Interpretation:
PVO > 0: Increasing volume momentum (bullish).
PVO < 0: Decreasing volume momentum (bearish).
When enabled (Show PVO Confluence), the indicator highlights periods where momentum and PVO align (e.g., bullish momentum with PVO > 0).
4. Rate of Change (ROC)
Formula: Smoothed difference between momentum and signal line, multiplied by a user-defined factor (ROC Multiplier).
Purpose: Enhances readability of momentum shifts, plotted as a blue (positive) or orange (negative) line when enabled.
5. Reversal Signals
Bullish Reversal: Momentum crosses above the signal line, optionally confirmed by PVO > 0. Marked with a green vertical line.
Bearish Reversal: Momentum crosses below the signal line, optionally confirmed by PVO < 0. Marked with a red vertical line.
6. Confluence Background
When Show PVO Confluence is enabled, the background is colored to highlight alignment:
Bullish Confluence: Momentum > Signal and PVO > 0 (green background, darker if ROC is positive).
Bearish Confluence: Momentum < Signal and PVO < 0 (red background, darker if ROC is negative).
Inputs
Basic Configuration:
Display Reversals: Show/hide reversal markers for momentum/signal crossovers (default: true).
Show PVO Confluence: Enable/disable background coloring for momentum and PVO alignment (default: false).
Rate of Change:
Show Rate of Change Line: Display the ROC line (default: false).
ROC Smoothing Length: Smoothing period for ROC (default: 1, min: 1).
ROC Multiplier: Scales ROC for readability (default: 1, min: 1).
Plotline Colors:
Bullish Momentum: Green (default: RGB(0, 255, 0)).
Bearish Momentum: Red (default: RGB(255, 0, 0)).
Signal Line: White (default: RGB(255, 255, 255)).
Squeeze Colors:
No Squeeze: Green.
Wide Squeeze: Black.
Normal Squeeze: Red.
Narrow Squeeze: Yellow.
Very Narrow Squeeze: Purple.
Timeframe-Specific Parameters
The indicator adapts to the chart’s timeframe, using predefined settings.
Hourly, 4-Hour, Daily, Weekly and Monthly (and everything in between) all have custom, tweaked momentum length, ATR length, and squeeze multiplier threshold to suit the sensitivity needed for the current timeframe.
Trading Applications
Squeeze Breakouts:
A transition from a Very Narrow or Narrow Squeeze to No Squeeze often signals a breakout. Combine with momentum crossovers for confirmation.
Example: Enter a long position when a Narrow Squeeze (yellow dots) turns to No Squeeze (green dots) and momentum crosses above the signal line.
Trend Reversals:
Bullish reversal (green line) with PVO > 0 confirms strong buying volume, increasing the likelihood of a sustained uptrend.
Bearish reversal (red line) with PVO < 0 suggests strong selling pressure.
Confluence Trading:
Use confluence backgrounds to trade only when momentum and volume align, reducing false signals.
Example: A bullish confluence (green background) with positive ROC indicates a high-probability long setup.
Divergences:
Look for divergences between price and momentum or PVO. For instance, a higher low in momentum/PVO with a lower low in price suggests a bullish reversal.
Trend Confirmation:
Use the momentum oscillator and ROC to confirm price trends. A rising momentum and positive ROC validate an uptrend.
Alerts
Squeeze Alerts:
🟢 No Squeeze: Volatility is expanding.
⚫ Low Squeeze: Wide squeeze detected.
🔴 Normal Squeeze: Moderate squeeze detected.
🟡 Tight Squeeze: Narrow squeeze detected.
🟣 Very Tight Squeeze: Very narrow squeeze detected.
Reversal Alerts:
🐂 Bullish Trend Reversal: Momentum crosses above signal.
🐻 Bearish Trend Reversal: Momentum crosses below signal.
🐂 Bullish Trend Reversal + 📊 PVO Confluence: Momentum crossover with PVO > 0.
🐻 Bearish Trend Reversal + 📊 PVO Confluence: Momentum crossover with PVO < 0.
Limitations
Lagging Nature: The momentum oscillator and PVO rely on moving averages, which may lag sudden price or volume spikes.
False Signals: Squeezes and crossovers can occur in choppy markets, leading to whipsaws. Confirm with price action or other indicators.
Timeframe Sensitivity: Results vary by timeframe; test settings for your trading style (e.g., shorter lengths for day trading).
How to Use
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to any TradingView chart (non-overlay).
Customize Settings:
Enable Display Reversals for crossover markers.
Enable Show PVO Confluence for volume confirmation.
Adjust ROC Smoothing and ROC Multiplier for clearer ROC visuals.

ENIGMA 369 ENIGMA 369 is a unique Pine Script indicator that combines two complementary trading systems: Break of Structure (BOS) Detection and Session-Based Sniper Signals.
Designed to help traders identify market structure shifts and potential intraday setups, it overlays on the chart to highlight key levels and momentum-driven opportunities. The indicator’s originality lies in its integration of pattern-based BOS analysis (inspired by Smart Money concepts) with time- and trend-filtered Sniper signals, creating a cohesive tool for both swing and intraday trading.
Unlike standalone breakout or scalping indicators, ENIGMA 369 uses:
BOS Logic: A specific two-candle pattern sequence to detect structural shifts, filtered by ATR for significance.
Sniper Logic: Momentum-based signals during high-volatility sessions, optionally aligned with EMA trends.
This synergy allows traders to assess market direction strategically (via BOS) and time entries tactically (via Sniper), all within one indicator.
What It Does
ENIGMA 369 performs two distinct functions:
Break of Structure (BOS) Detection:
Identifies potential support/resistance levels using BullBear (bullish candle followed by bearish) and BearBull (bearish followed by bullish) candle pairs.
Confirms breakouts when price sustains above (bullish) or below (bearish) these levels for a set number of bars.
Draws horizontal lines at confirmed breakout levels, which persist until price crosses a user-defined buffer zone.
Sniper Momentum Signals:
Detects buy/sell setups during user-specified trading sessions (e.g., London/US), based on candle momentum (close relative to midpoint, higher highs/lower lows).
Optionally filters signals with an EMA to align with the broader trend.
Plots lines at the candle’s high/low and 50% wick levels, serving as reference points for entries or stops, removed when price crosses them.
How It Works
ENIGMA 369 relies on price action, market timing, and trend context to generate signals. Here’s how each component operates:
BOS Logic:
Pattern Detection: Scans for two-candle patterns where the first candle is significant (size exceeds an ATR-based threshold) and the second opposes it. For example, a BullBear pair marks the first candle’s high as a potential resistance.
ATR Filter: Uses the Average True Range (default: 14 periods) to ensure the first candle’s range or body is substantial, reducing noise. Users can adjust the ATR multiplier (default: 0.5).
Confirmation: Requires price to close above/below the stored level for a user-defined number of bars (default: 1) to confirm a breakout.
Line Management: Plots green (bullish) or red (bearish) lines at confirmed levels, extending for a set number of bars (default: 10). Lines are deleted if price crosses a buffer (percentage of price or ATR-based, default: 0.1).
Visualization: Optionally highlights pattern candles with transparent green/red backgrounds.
Sniper Logic:
Momentum Signals: Identifies buy signals when a candle closes above its midpoint (high+low)/2 and has a lower low than the prior candle, indicating potential bullish momentum. Sell signals require a close below the midpoint and a higher high.
Session Filter: Limits signals to user-defined London/US session hours (default: 1-23 UTC, adjustable to specific hours like 7-11 UTC for London).
EMA Filter: Optionally uses a 50-period EMA (adjustable) to ensure buy signals occur in uptrends (rising EMA) and sell signals in downtrends (falling EMA).
Line Plotting: Draws blue lines for buy signals (at the low and 50% of the lower wick) and orange lines for sell signals (at the high and 50% of the upper wick). Lines extend right until price crosses them, managed via arrays for efficiency.
Dynamic Removal: Lines are automatically deleted when price breaches them, reflecting changing market conditions.
Why Combine BOS and Sniper?
The integration of BOS and Sniper logic is purposeful and synergistic:
BOS provides a strategic view by identifying structural shifts, helping traders understand the market’s directional bias (e.g., bullish after a confirmed high breakout).
Sniper offers tactical entry points within these trends, focusing on high-volatility sessions where momentum is likely to drive clear moves.
Together, they enable traders to align short-term trades with long-term structure, reducing the risk of trading against the trend. For example, a trader can wait for a bullish BOS confirmation before taking Sniper buy signals, enhancing setup reliability.
This combination is original because it merges Smart Money-inspired BOS detection with a session-based momentum system, a pairing not commonly found in single indicators. It avoids redundant mashups by ensuring each component serves a distinct yet complementary role.
How to Use It
Setup:
Apply ENIGMA 369 to a TradingView chart (Pine Script v5). The chart shown here uses a clean H1 candlestick setup to highlight BOS and Sniper outputs clearly.
Customize settings:
BOS:
ATR Period (default: 14), Min Candle Size (default: 0.5x ATR): Adjust for pattern sensitivity.
Confirmation Bars (default: 1): Set for faster/slower breakouts.
Buffer Type (Percentage/ATR), Buffer Zone Value (default: 0.1): Control line deletion.
Show Lines (default: true), Highlight Candle Pairs (default: false): Enable visuals.
Customize line colors (green/red) and width/length.
Sniper:
London/US Start/End Hours: Set to match your asset’s volatility (e.g., 7-11 UTC for London forex).
EMA Filter (default: true), EMA Period (default: 50): Enable for trend alignment.
Customize line styles (Solid/Dotted/Dashed) and colors (blue/orange) to distinguish from BOS.
Suggested timeframes: H1-H4 for BOS (swing trading), M5-M15 for Sniper (intraday).
Trading with BOS:
Monitor for green (bullish) or red (bearish) lines indicating confirmed breakouts.
Use lines as support/resistance:
Bullish BOS: Consider longs above the line, with stops below the line or buffer.
Bearish BOS: Consider shorts below the line, with stops above the line or buffer.
Line deletion signals a potential reversal or level invalidation.
Trading with Sniper:
Look for blue (buy) or orange (sell) lines during active sessions:
Buy: Enter long at the low or 50% wick line, with stops below the low and targets at resistance.
Sell: Enter short at the high or 50% wick line, with stops above the high and targets at support.
Use EMA filter to avoid counter-trend signals.
Lines disappear when crossed, indicating the setup’s completion or invalidation.
Alerts:
Set alerts for:
“Bullish/Bearish BOS Confirmed” for structural shifts.
“Sniper Buy/Sell Alert” for intraday setups.
Combine with volume, key levels, or news for confirmation.
Best Practices:
Use BOS to confirm trend direction before taking Sniper signals.
Test settings on your asset/timeframe via backtesting.
Apply stop-losses and risk-reward ratios (e.g., 1:2) for discipline.
The chart example shows BOS lines (green/red) and Sniper lines (blue/orange) on an H1 chart, ensuring clarity.
Underlying Concepts
Market Structure (BOS): Identifies turning points where supply/demand shifts, using two-candle patterns to mark significant levels, similar to order block concepts.
Momentum and Timing (Sniper): Targets entries during high-liquidity sessions, using candle midpoint and wick analysis to capture momentum-driven moves.
Trend Context: EMA ensures signals align with the market’s direction, reducing false positives.
Price Action: Both systems rely on raw price behavior, avoiding lagging oscillators for timely signals.
Limitations
BOS may lag in fast markets; reduce confirmation bars for scalping.
Sniper signals depend on session settings; ensure alignment with your asset’s volatility.
Multiple lines may clutter charts; adjust colors/styles for clarity.
Not a standalone system; combine with other analysis for best results.
Disclaimer
ENIGMA 369 is a tool to identify potential trading setups, not a guaranteed profit system. Past performance does not predict future results. Backtest thoroughly and use with proper risk management.
Conclusion
ENIGMA 369 offers a structured approach to trading by combining BOS’s structural insights with Sniper’s precise, session-based entries. Its unique integration makes it suitable for traders seeking to align strategic and tactical decisions. Customize it to your style, test it rigorously, and use it to enhance your market analysis.
3CRGANG - TRUE RANGEThis indicator helps traders identify key support and resistance levels using dynamic True Range calculations, while also providing a multi-timeframe trend overview. It plots True Range levels as horizontal lines, marks breakouts with arrows, and displays trend directions across various timeframes in a table, making it easier to align trades with broader market trends.
What It Does
The 3CRGANG - TRUE RANGE indicator calculates dynamic support and resistance levels based on the True Range concept, updating them as price breaks out of the range. It also analyzes trend direction across multiple timeframes (M1 to M) and presents the results in a table, using visual cues to indicate bullish, bearish, or neutral conditions.
Why It’s Useful
This script combines True Range analysis with multi-timeframe trend identification to provide a comprehensive tool for traders. The dynamic True Range levels help identify potential reversal or continuation zones, while the trend table allows traders to confirm the broader market direction before entering trades. This dual approach reduces the need for multiple indicators, streamlining analysis across different timeframes and market conditions.
How It Works
The script operates in the following steps:
True Range Calculation: The indicator calculates True Range levels (support and resistance) using price data (close, high, low) from a user-selected timeframe. It updates these levels when price breaks above the upper range (bullish breakout) or below the lower range (bearish breakout).
Line Plotting: Two styles are available:
"3CR": Plots one solid line after a breakout (green for bullish, red for bearish) and removes the opposing line.
"RANGE": Plots both upper and lower range lines as dotted lines (green for support, red for resistance) until a breakout occurs, then solidifies the breakout line.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Analysis: The script analyzes trend direction on multiple timeframes (M1, M5, M15, M30, H1, H4, D, W, M) by comparing the current close to the True Range levels on each timeframe. A trend is:
Trend Table: A table displays the trend direction for each timeframe, with color-coded backgrounds (green for bullish, red for bearish) and triangles to indicate the trend state.
Breakout Arrows: When price breaks above the upper range, a green ▲ arrow appears below the bar (bullish). When price breaks below the lower range, a red ▼ arrow appears above the bar (bearish).
Bullish (▲): Price is above the upper range.
Bearish (▼): Price is below the lower range.
Neutral (△/▽): Price is within the range, with the last trend indicated by an empty triangle (△ for last bullish, ▽ for last bearish).
Alerts: Breakout alerts can be set for each timeframe, with options to filter by trading sessions (e.g., New York, London) or enable all-day alerts.
Underlying Concepts
The script uses the True Range concept to define dynamic support and resistance levels, which adjust based on price action to reflect the most relevant price zones. The multi-timeframe trend analysis leverages the same True Range logic to determine trend direction, providing a consistent framework across all timeframes. The combination of breakout signals and trend confirmation helps traders align their strategies with both short-term price movements and longer-term market trends.
Use Case
Breakout Trading: Use the True Range lines and arrows to identify breakouts. For example, a green ▲ arrow below a bar with price breaking above the upper range suggests a potential long entry.
Trend Confirmation: Check the trend table to ensure the breakout aligns with the broader trend. For instance, a bullish breakout on the 1H chart is more reliable if the D and W timeframes also show bullish trends (▲).
Range Trading: When price is within the True Range (dotted lines in "RANGE" style), consider range-bound strategies, buying near support and selling near resistance, while monitoring the table for potential trend shifts.
Settings
Input Timeframe: Select the timeframe for True Range calculations (default: chart timeframe).
True Range Style: Choose between "3CR" (single line after breakout) or "RANGE" (both lines until breakout) (default: 3CR).
Change Symbol: Compare a different ticker if needed (default: chart symbol).
Color Theme: Select "LIGHT THEME" or "DARK THEME" for colors, or enable custom colors (default: LIGHT THEME).
Table Position: Set the trend table’s position (center, right, left) (default: right).
Multi Res Alerts Setup: Enable/disable breakout alerts for each timeframe (default: enabled for most timeframes).
Sessions Alerts: Filter alerts by trading sessions (e.g., New York, London) or enable all-day alerts (default: most sessions enabled).
Chart Notes
The chart displays the script’s output on XAUUSD (1H timeframe), showing:
Candlesticks representing price action.
True Range lines (green for support, red for resistance) in "3CR" style, with solid lines after breakouts and dotted lines during range-bound periods.
Arrows (green ▲ below bars for bullish breakouts, red ▼ above bars for bearish breakouts) indicating range breakouts.
A trend table in the top-right corner labeled "TREND EA," showing trend directions across timeframes (M1 to M) with triangles (▲/▼ for active trends, △/▽ for last trend) and color-coded backgrounds (green for bullish, red for bearish).
Notes
The script uses the chart’s ticker by default but allows comparison with another symbol if enabled.
Trend data for higher timeframes (e.g., M) may not display if the chart’s history is insufficient.
Alerts are triggered only during selected trading sessions unless "ALL DAY ALERTS" is enabled.

NQ/MNQ Futures Delta+ with Price Action EntriesNQ/MNQ Futures Delta+ with Price Action Entries
Description: This TradingView indicator combines Futures Delta analysis with advanced price action techniques to provide an enhanced trading strategy for the NQ/MNQ futures market. The script analyzes the market using a variety of methods including Delta, volume analysis, and candlestick patterns, while also incorporating price action factors like support/resistance levels and breakouts to offer more refined buy and sell signals.
Key Features:
Delta Analysis:
The Delta calculation tracks the difference between buying and selling pressure within each market bar. The indicator calculates delta based on different modes (Classic, Volume Based, Tick Based), and then applies cumulative delta for trend analysis.
The Cumulative Delta is calculated using one of the three available modes:
Total: Tracks the cumulative delta over time.
Periodic: Measures delta over a defined period (user-configurable).
EMA: Applies an Exponential Moving Average to smooth the delta values.
Volume Confirmation:
The script includes volume analysis to confirm price movements. A volume spike is used to validate buy/sell signals, ensuring that price movements are supported by significant trading volume.
Price Action-Based Entries:
Support and Resistance: Dynamic support and resistance levels are calculated based on the lowest low and highest high of the last 20 bars. These levels are used to identify breakout points, providing context for potential buy/sell entries.
Candlestick Patterns: The script recognizes Bullish Engulfing and Bearish Engulfing candlestick patterns. These patterns signal potential reversals in price direction and are used to confirm trade entries.
Breakout Logic: Buy signals are triggered when the price breaks above resistance, and sell signals are triggered when the price breaks below support, providing high-probability entry points during trend reversals or continuations.
Moving Average Trend Confirmation:
The script uses two moving averages:
9-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Short-term trend indicator.
21-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Longer-term trend indicator.
Trades are only considered in the direction of the prevailing trend:
A bullish signal is confirmed if the price is above both EMAs.
A bearish signal is confirmed if the price is below both EMAs.
Buy/Sell Signal Triggers:
Buy Signal: A buy signal is triggered when:
A bullish divergence is confirmed with volume support.
A bullish engulfing candlestick pattern forms.
The price breaks above resistance.
The price is above both the 9 EMA and 21 EMA, indicating an uptrend.
Sell Signal: A sell signal is triggered when:
A bearish divergence is confirmed with volume support.
A bearish engulfing candlestick pattern forms.
The price breaks below support.
The price is below both the 9 EMA and 21 EMA, indicating a downtrend.
Visualization:
Delta Candles: The cumulative delta is plotted as a candlestick on the chart, with green and red coloring to show buying or selling dominance.
Support and Resistance Levels: Support and resistance zones are plotted to show key levels where price action may react.
Moving Averages: The 9 EMA and 21 EMA are plotted to show short-term and long-term trend direction.
Signal Markers: Buy and sell signals are marked on the chart with green triangles (buy) and red triangles (sell) for easy visualization of trade opportunities.
Alerts:
Alerts can be set up for buy and sell signals, enabling you to be notified when the script identifies potential trade opportunities based on Delta analysis, volume confirmation, and price action.
How to Use This Script:
Market: This script is optimized for NQ and MNQ futures contracts but can be adapted for other markets as well.
Signal Interpretation: Use the buy and sell signals for trend-following or counter-trend trades. These signals are particularly useful for 1-minute or 5-minute charts but can be adjusted to fit other timeframes.
Support/Resistance: Pay close attention to the dynamic support and resistance levels, as these are key price action points where significant price movements can occur.
Trend Confirmation: Ensure that trades are aligned with the overall trend confirmed by the 9 EMA and 21 EMA. The script prioritizes signals that align with the broader market trend.
Breakouts: Use the breakout logic to catch price moves when the market breaks key support or resistance levels. These can often lead to strong moves in the direction of the breakout.

• Level: Define pivot points for the level. The default value is 15.
• Color, Style, Width: These settings allow you to customize the appearance of the Supply Line.
Demand Line Options]
These settings control how the Demand Line is calculated and displayed on the chart. Only one Demand Line will be shown.
• Demand Line: By default, one Demand Line is active.
• Confirm: When enabled, the Demand Line will only be shown once confirmed by the price.
• Level: A level between 1 and 100 can be chosen, with the default value being 15.
• Color, Style, Width: These settings allow you to adjust the appearance of the Demand Line.
Level Label Options
When a new Demand or Supply Line is drawn, a small label appears at the x2 coordinate of the line. The label shows the height of the extreme point and the direction (up or down) along with the line type (D = Demand, S = Supply) and the selected pivot level.
Breakout Label Options
• Show in Timeframe: Breakout labels are shown by default in timeframes above 30 minutes. In shorter timeframes, pivot points can change rapidly, causing the labels to cover the bars.
• Breakout: The breakout label contains the breakout price, direction, pivot level, and breakout attempts. After a breakout, the color of the Supply and Demand Lines will change to reflect the new state of the line.
• Target: A label that displays the target price, which is linked to the breakout point on the Supply or Demand Line.
Additional Options
• Burned Line: Supply and Demand lines remain active until new pivot points create a new line of the same level. After the 4th breakout, the line is marked as "burned" and will no longer be monitored for further breakouts.
• Spread: This feature allows you to account for your broker's spread in the target calculation to avoid discrepancies.

Market Structure Trend Targets [ChartPrime]The Market Structure Trend Targets indicator is designed to identify trend direction and continuation points by marking significant breaks in price levels. This approach helps traders track trend strength and potential reversal points. The indicator uses previous highs and lows as breakout triggers, providing a visual roadmap for trend continuation or mean reversion signals.
⯁ KEY FEATURES AND HOW TO USE
⯌ Breakout Points with Numbered Markers :
The indicator identifies key breakout points where price breaks above a previous high (for uptrends) or below a previous low (for downtrends). The initial breakout (zero break) is marked with the entry price and a triangle icon, while subsequent breakouts within the trend are numbered sequentially (1, 2, 3…) to indicate trend continuation.
Example of breakout markers for uptrend and downtrend:
⯌ Percentage Change Display Option :
Traders can toggle on a setting to display the percentage change from the initial breakout point to each subsequent break level, offering an easy way to gauge trend momentum over time. This is particularly helpful for identifying how far price has moved in the current trend.
Percentage change example between break points:
⯌ Dynamic Stop Loss Levels :
In uptrends, the stop loss level is placed below the price to protect against downside moves. In downtrends, it is positioned above the price. If the price breaches the stop loss level, the indicator resets, indicating a potential end or reversal of the trend.

⯌ Mean Reversion Signals :
The indicator identifies potential mean reversion points with diamond icons. In an uptrend, if the price falls below the stop loss and then re-enters above it, a diamond is plotted, suggesting a possible mean reversion. Similarly, in a downtrend, if the price moves above the stop loss and then falls back below, it indicates a reversion possibility.

⯌ Trend Visualization with Colored Zones :
The chart background is shaded to visually represent trend direction, with color changes corresponding to uptrends and downtrends. This makes it easier to see overall market conditions at a glance.
⯁ USER INPUTS
Length : Defines the number of bars used to identify pivot highs and lows for trend breakouts.
Display Percentage : Option to toggle between showing sequential breakout numbers or the percentage change from the initial breakout.
Colors for Uptrend and Downtrend : Allows customization of color zones for uptrends and downtrends to match individual chart preferences.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Market Structure Trend Targets indicator offers a strategic way to monitor market trends, track breakouts, and manage risk through dynamic stop loss levels. Its clear visual representation of trend continuity, alongside mean reversion signals, provides traders with actionable insights for both trend-following and counter-trend strategies.
