Flat Market Range Pro [CHE]Flat Market Range Pro Indicator
Introduction
Hey there! 👋
Welcome to our overview of the Flat Market Range Pro indicator. Whether you're new to trading or a seasoned pro, this tool is designed to help you spot those flat market conditions where prices are chilling within a certain range. By highlighting these consolidation zones and potential breakout points, it offers some pretty neat insights to boost your trading strategies. Let’s dive in and explore how this indicator can make your trading journey smoother and more informed!
How It Works
The Flat Market Range Pro indicator is all about understanding the ebb and flow of the market. Here's a simple breakdown:
Range Detection:
Range Period (range_period): This sets the number of bars (think of them as time slices) the indicator looks back to find the highest highs and lowest lows. It’s like setting the scope for your search.
Minimum Candles in Range (min_candles_in_range): Ensures that there are enough candles (price bars) within the range to make the detection meaningful. No point in highlighting a range if it’s too short, right?
Adaptive Moving Average (AMA):
Think of AMA as the indicator’s way of staying flexible. It smooths out the price data to better spot trends within those flat ranges. Don’t worry, it’s working behind the scenes and won’t clutter your chart.
Breakout Detection:
When the price decides to break free from its cozy range, the indicator flags it. It waits for confirmation to make sure it’s not just a fleeting move, adding a layer of reliability to your signals.
Visualization:
Flat Market Zones: These are shaded areas that highlight where the price has been consolidating.
Support and Resistance Lines: Automatically drawn lines that mark key price levels, helping you see where the price might bounce or break through.
Trade Signals: Arrows popping up to show potential buy or sell opportunities when breakouts occur.
Breaking It Down
1. Detecting the Range
The indicator scans through the past range_period bars to find the highest and lowest prices. This creates a dynamic range that adjusts as new data comes in. It’s like having a smart assistant keeping an eye on where the action is happening.
2. The Role of AMA
Even though you won’t see AMA on your chart, it plays a crucial role. It helps the indicator adapt to changing market conditions by smoothing out the data, making sure the breakout signals are spot-on and not just random noise.
3. Spotting Breakouts
A breakout happens when the price moves beyond the established range. The indicator marks these moments with clear arrows, so you know when it might be a good time to jump in or out of a trade. Plus, it waits for confirmation to ensure these signals are solid.
4. Visualizing Flat Markets
Shaded boxes highlight the areas where the price has been consolidating, making it easy to see when the market is flat. Support and resistance lines are drawn automatically, and you can even customize how they look to match your personal style.
Customize It Your Way
One of the best things about the Flat Market Range Pro indicator is how customizable it is. Here’s what you can tweak:
Range Settings:
Adjust the range_period to fit different timeframes.
Set the min_candles_in_range to ensure the ranges you see are meaningful.
Moving Average Settings:
Change the ma_length and ma_lookback to fine-tune how the AMA responds to price movements.
Visual Tweaks:
Pick your favorite colors and transparency levels for the shaded zones.
Choose whether to display support and resistance lines and extend them indefinitely if you like.
Toggle trade arrows and labels on or off based on what you find most helpful.
Organizing these settings into logical groups makes it super easy to customize the indicator just the way you like it.
Real-World Examples
1. Spotting Consolidation: Imagine you’re watching a stock that’s been moving sideways for a while. The indicator highlights this consolidation with shaded boxes and support/resistance lines, giving you a clear picture of where the price is hanging out.
2. Trading Breakouts: When the price finally decides to break free from the range, the indicator pops up buy or sell arrows. This helps you catch the move early, whether you’re looking to enter a new trade or exit an existing one.
3. Making Informed Decisions: With clear visual cues and reliable signals, you can make smarter trading decisions without getting overwhelmed by too much information.

ORB - Alerts, VWAP and MACD Checks, Extended Fib Levels
ORB Range Alerter with Shading, VWAP Check, MACD Check, and Extended Fibonacci Levels for TP – Fully Customizable
This indicator is designed to give you a comprehensive analysis of the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) combined with advanced conditions based on VWAP and MACD indicators, along with Extended Fibonacci Levels for both long and short TP positions.
Key Features:
Opening Range Breakout (ORB):
Defines the opening range at the market open (9:30 AM by default) based on your chart timeframe and shades it for visibility.
The high and low of the first candle after the open are plotted on the chart, creating a breakout range that traders can use to identify potential long or short positions.
VWAP Condition (Optional):
This indicator includes the option to enforce the VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) as a condition for entering trades.
- Longs will only trigger if the price is above VWAP (when enabled).
- Shorts will only trigger if the price is below VWAP (when enabled).
Customizable : You can enable or disable the VWAP condition through a simple checkbox in the indicator’s settings.
MACD Condition (Optional):
Includes an optional MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) condition.
- Longs will only trigger if the MACD line is above 0 and the signal line, providing confirmation of bullish momentum.
- Shorts will only trigger if the MACD line is below 0 and the signal line, indicating bearish momentum.
Customizable : You can enable or disable the MACD condition through a checkbox in the indicator’s settings, allowing you to trade with or without the MACD confirmation.
Fibonacci Extensions for Profit Targets:
Automatically calculates Fibonacci extension levels based on the ORB range for TP levels.
These levels provide key areas for potential profit-taking or reversal points.
Fibonacci extensions are plotted only after a confirmed breakout, either long or short.
The extensions include 127.2%, 161.8%, 200%, 261.8%, 423.6%, and 685.4%, offering a comprehensive set of targets for different trading strategies.
Shading of ORB Range:
The ORB high and low are visually emphasized on the chart with a shaded area for easy identification.
The shading is semi-transparent to help keep your chart clean and easy to read.
Customizable Timeframe:
The ORB range is defined based on the time of day (default is 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM), but you can adjust the timeframe to suit different trading sessions or markets.
Alerts for Breakouts:
Built-in alerts notify you when price crosses above or below the ORB high or low, along with the optional VWAP and MACD conditions.
Alerts can be used to create automated notifications or even execute automated trades based on your chosen settings.
How to Use:
Long Trade Example: When the price crosses above the ORB high, VWAP is above the price, and MACD shows bullish momentum (if these conditions are enabled), a potential long entry is triggered. You can use the Fibonacci extensions for profit targets.
Short Trade Example: When the price crosses below the ORB low, VWAP is below the price, and MACD confirms bearish momentum (if these conditions are enabled), a short entry is triggered. Fibonacci levels for the short position can guide your exit strategy.
Flexibility: You can enable or disable both VWAP and MACD conditions based on your trading style. This flexibility allows the indicator to adapt to different market conditions and strategies.
Customization Options:
Enable/Disable VWAP Condition: Decide if you want to include VWAP as a trade filter.
Enable/Disable MACD Condition: Choose whether to require MACD as confirmation for trade entries.
Adjust ORB Timeframe: Customize the time range for defining the ORB based on the market you're trading.
Fibonacci Extensions: Visualize key profit targets using Fibonacci extensions, which are automatically calculated and displayed after a breakout.

Filter Set D: Scalper
After determining the market condition using the previous filter sets, you can use this filter set to hunt for trades. Designed for use with Heikin Ashi candles, this filter allows you to enter when there’s high momentum and provides a trailing stop along the way.
Goal:
Execute trades in harmony with the established trend.
Setup Rules:
1. Condition 1: You know the current trend direction as per filter set guidance (A, B, & C), and the trend is up, and you are going long.
2. Condition 2: Wait for the price to close 3 consecutive flat-bottom Heikin Ashi candles above the 7 MA. Then Enter on the open of the fourth Candle.
3. Condition 3: The 3x candles have to be above the 7 MA (red line), and the 7 MA has to be above the 50 EMA (yellow line).
Trade Management:
Use the 50 EMA (Yellow Line) as a trailing stop and hold the position until a candle opens and closes below the 7 SMA (Red Line).
---
Additional Filter Sets
These filter sets are designed to accommodate various trading strategies, allowing for flexibility depending on the trader's approach.
---
Filter Set E: VWAP
When using the VWAP filter, load the On-Balance Volume (OBV) indicator to complement your analysis. This combination can help confirm volume trends and potential price movements.
Tips:
Look for instances where the VWAP aligns with OBV divergences to confirm or negate potential trade setups.
Tutorial:
- Complement with OBV: Look for volume confirmations.
- Usage: Switch the candles to a line chart. Wait for both the line to close above the VWAP and OBV above the Smoothing Line. Then, switch to Filter Set D and hunt for a long entry as per the strategy. Do the opposite for hunting short entries.
---
Filter Set F: Super Trend
This filter is most effective when paired with the Ichimoku Cloud (using custom settings) along with the MACD and ADX indicators.
Goal:
Gauge trend strength, momentum, and support and resistance levels.
Tutorial:
- Load Ichimoku, MACD, and ADX: To gauge trend strength and momentum.
- Usage Tips:
I use the cloud to look for long periods where the clouds print horizontal levels and use them for support and resistance levels. Alternatively, use the ADX. When the price breaks up through the super trend downtrend line and retraces back to the top of the Ichimoku cloud, switch to Filter Set D and hunt for a long scalp entry. For a short entry, wait for the price to break through the Up Trend Line and retrace back up to the cloud. Then, switch to Filter Set D and use the setup to hunt for a short.
---
Filter Set G: Keltner Channels
Combine this filter with Donchian Channels and the Average True Range (ATR) for enhanced volatility analysis. This filter set works similarly to Filter Set C.
Goal:
Measure volatility and predict breakouts.
Tutorial:
- Load Donchian Channels or ATR: To measure volatility and breakouts.
- Usage Tips:
Look for the price to fall through the Keltner lower line and the ATR making a higher low. Then, use the scalper for entries, with Donchian boundaries as take-profit estimates.
---
Filter Set H: Pivot Points
This filter works with the RSI to spot divergences that could signal a trend change or reversal.
Goal:
Identify divergences and trend reversals.
Tutorial:
- Load RSI: For identifying divergences.
- Usage Tips:
Use RSI in conjunction with pivot points to identify divergences. Then, switch to Filter Set D and use the scalper to hunt for swing entries in the divergence direction.
---
Filter Set I: Opening Range Breakout
This filter uses the Seasonality indicator to gauge investor sentiment and prediction sentiment.
Goal:
Assess market sentiment and predict breakout directions.
Tutorial:
- Load Seasonality Indicator: To assess market sentiment.
- Usage Tips:
Use seasonal trends to gauge potential breakout directions. Use on the daily timeframe only. Risk on investment zones are when the price is close to the ORB low level. Realize investment profit when the price is nearing the ORB high level, considering that there has to be divergence as determined using Filter Set H.
---
By following this structured approach, traders can learn to navigate different market conditions, using TrendScope to make informed decisions based on a comprehensive analysis of momentum, trend, and volatility. The goal is to go through all the filter sets and combine them with the scalp setup in Filter Set D, using the additional filters to adapt to various strategies and market conditions.
True Market Structure {DCAquant}
True Market Structure
Overview
The True Market Structure is a technical analysis tool designed for use across all timeframes. It identifies and visualizes market structure breaks (MSBs) and break of structure (BOS) events, emphasizing interim highs and lows using the "Deroz Wick" system. Unlike many other indicators, this tool does not rely on traditional pivot points, making it a unique addition to any trader's toolkit.
How It Works
The True Market Structure indicator uses a combination of algorithms to detect and highlight significant market structure events. By analyzing price action and identifying key levels, the indicator aids in understanding potential reversal points and trend continuations.
Bull and Bear Market Structures: Differentiates between bullish and bearish market structures, applying distinct color settings for easy visualization.
Customizable Settings: Users can tailor the indicator’s appearance and functionality to their preferences, including toggling lines, labels, and selecting between SWING and INTERIM MS settings.
How our market structure indicator is different
All known market structure indicators work with pivot points. This is a lookback function to find highs and lows within a certain period and then producing market structure.
Our indicator doesn't work like this as the DCAquant True Market Structure finds swing and interim lows and saves it into memory thus giving us the ability to create real market structure breaks and BOS’s.
This is achieved when an MSB or BOS is triggered the script will perform a check through its memory to find previous Interim or swing which ever setting the user has selected.
A saved interim or swing will never change unless it is broken giving you true market structure, this Indicator cannot repaint because it only produces breaks whenever candle is closed.
The next MSB or BOS you see on the chart are the direct function of saved memory points which gives clear indication of true market structure.
Almost 500 lines of code to give you True Market Structure usable on any timeframe.
Key Features
1. Market Structure Breaks (MSBs) and Break of Structure (BOS)
Market Structure Breaks (MSBs): Occur when the price breaks through a previous significant high or low, indicating a potential reversal or continuation of the current trend.
Break of Structure (BOS): Highlights significant breaks in market structure, providing insights into potential trend changes.
2. Visualization Options
Customizable colour settings for both bull and bear market structures, ensuring it integrates with any chart setup.
Options to enable or disable lines and labels for flexible information display.
3. The WICK System
Standard WICK System: Identifies wicks based on standard high/low calculations.
Deroz WICK System: Enhances the standard WICK system by looking back at price history and replacing the standard wick if an even lower or higher wick is found in the subsequent bar.
4. MS Settings
SWING Setting: Sets future MSB events at swing highs/lows, offering a broader market perspective.
INTERIM Setting: Sets future MSB events at interim highs/lows, providing more immediate and frequent market structure updates.
Understanding Market Structure
Market structure is defined by a series of price actions that form recognizable patterns indicating the current trend. Key elements include:
Higher Highs (HH) and Higher Lows (HL): Indicate an uptrend, where each successive high and low is higher than the previous one.
Lower Highs (LH) and Lower Lows (LL): Indicate a downtrend, where each successive high and low is lower than the previous one.
These patterns help traders identify trend direction and potential reversal points. In an uptrend, traders look for higher highs and higher lows to continue, whereas in a downtrend, they look for lower highs and lower lows.
Application in Breakout Trading
Market structure analysis is crucial for breakout trading, where traders seek to capitalize on significant price movements following a break of established price levels.
Uptrend Breakouts: Traders watch for breaks above higher highs as potential entry points for long positions.
Downtrend Breakouts: Traders watch for breaks below lower lows as potential entry points for short positions.
The True Market Structure indicator assists by visually marking these critical levels, simplifying the process of identifying and acting on breakout opportunities.

Volume Buyer-Seller [GOODY]This indicator was designed to analyze buying and selling pressure through volume calculations, providing insights into market dynamics. It can be used to determine whether buyers or sellers dominate the market at any given time.
Key Features
1. Volume Calculations: This indicator calculates the volume attributable to buyers and sellers for each bar, then represents it as buying and selling columns on the chart. It also provides the average volume over a specified period for context.
2. Dominance Logic: By comparing the buying and selling volumes, the indicator determines which side (buyers or sellers) has dominance. If the difference between the two is within a specified threshold, the market is considered indecisive.
3. Dominance Marker: Circles or squares appear on the chart to indicate the dominant force, helping traders quickly assess market sentiment. The colors of these markers can be customized.
4. Label Display: The indicator displays a comprehensive label on the chart with information like total volume, buyer/seller percentages, average volume, ratio, and ATR (Average True Range) details. This label can show current or past data depending on user preference.
5. Ratio and Control: A critical component is the ratio, calculated as the proportion of buying volume to selling volume. This ratio is a key indicator of market sentiment, with an appended symbol to denote whether buyers or sellers are in control.
How to Use
• Settings: Adjust the settings to align with your trading strategy. You can modify the length for average volume, ATR, and other parameters to suit your trading style.
• Volume Analysis: Monitor the buying and selling columns to determine market activity. The larger columns indicate higher volume, suggesting a strong buying or selling pressure.
• Dominance: Pay attention to the dominance markers. Green markers indicate buying dominance, while red markers signify selling dominance. If the market is indecisive, the marker will be gray.
• Ratio: A ratio above 1 suggests buying dominance, while a ratio below 1 indicates selling dominance. The ratio's appended color tag helps quickly identify which side is in control.
• Labels: The labels provide a snapshot of key data, including total volume, buyer/seller percentages, average volume, ratio, and ATR. This information is helpful in understanding overall market conditions.
Reading the Indicator
• Buying and Selling Columns: These represent the respective volumes for each side. Positive columns are buying volumes, and negative columns are selling volumes.
• Dominance Circles: A circle appears at the zero baseline to show which side is currently dominant. A blue circle indicates buying dominance, while a red circle indicates selling dominance.
• Ratio with Dominance: The label includes a ratio with a tag showing who is in control. A green tag indicates buyers, and a red tag indicates sellers.
• ATR and Average Volume: The label provides additional context with ATR and average volume, helping you understand volatility and relative volume.
Volume Gauge Addition : Introduced a volume gauge display option to visualize the relative strength of buying vs. selling volumes. Users can toggle this feature on or off according to their analysis needs.
Total Volume
Metric: Displays "Total Vol."
Value: Shows the total trading volume for the current bar, formatted in a human-readable format (K for thousands, M for millions). Additionally, it shows the percentage of this volume relative to the average volume, aiding in understanding volume spikes or drops.
Usage: Compare current volume to historical averages to identify unusual market activity.
Average Volume
Metric: Displays "Avg Vol."
Value: Shows the simple moving average of the volume over a user-defined period, formatted similarly to Total Volume.
Usage: Helps determine if current volume is above or below average, indicating potential interest or disinterest in the asset.
Buyers
Metric: Displays "BUYERS."
Value: Shows the volume of buying calculated from the upward price movements within the bar, along with its percentage of the total volume.
Usage: Spot dominance in buying activity which might suggest bullish conditions.
Sellers
Metric: Displays "SELLERS."
Value: Shows the volume of selling calculated from the downward price movements within the bar, along with its percentage of the total volume.
Usage: Spot dominance in selling activity which might suggest bearish conditions.
Delta
Metric: Displays "Delta."
Value: Shows the difference between buying and selling volumes, providing a quick snapshot of which side of the market is exerting more pressure.
Usage: Use to gauge overall market sentiment and potential price direction.
Ratio
Metric: Displays "Ratio."
Value: Shows the ratio of buying volume to selling volume, providing insight into the relative strength of buyers vs. sellers.
Usage: Ratios significantly above or below 1 can indicate strong market biases.
ATR (Average True Range)
Metric: Displays "ATR."
Value: Shows the current ATR value to gauge volatility, with an arrow indicating the direction of change from the previous bar’s ATR.
Usage: Utilize to assess market volatility and potentially adjust trading strategies or risk management settings.
Dynamic Background Colors
The table employs dynamic background colors for certain metrics to visually represent data intensity or significance:
Total Volume: Changes color based on the percentage relative to the average volume.
Buyers/Sellers: The background color indicates whether buying or selling is dominant.
Delta and Ratio: Colors change based on their calculated values to reflect market conditions quickly.
What is Volume Delta?
Volume delta, also known as volume difference or volume delta divergence, refers to the difference between buying (accumulation) and selling (distribution) volumes within a given time period. It provides a quantitative measure of the net buying or selling pressure in the market.
How to Use Volume Delta:
Identifying Market Sentiment:
Positive delta values indicate that buying volume exceeds selling volume, suggesting bullish sentiment.
Negative delta values indicate that selling volume exceeds buying volume, suggesting bearish sentiment.
Confirming Price Movements:
Volume delta can be used to confirm price movements. For example, if prices are rising and volume delta is positive, it may suggest that the uptrend is supported by strong buying interest.
Conversely, if prices are falling and volume delta is negative, it may suggest that the downtrend is supported by strong selling pressure.
Spotting Divergence:
Divergence between price and volume delta can signal potential trend reversals. For example, if prices are rising but volume delta is declining (or vice versa), it may indicate weakening momentum and a possible reversal in trend.
Confirming Breakouts:
Volume delta can help confirm breakout moves. For instance, a breakout accompanied by increasing positive delta values may suggest strong buying interest and validate the breakout.
In summary, volume delta provides valuable insights into market sentiment and can be used alongside price action analysis to make more informed trading decisions.
All Support and Resistance Levels [PINESCRIPTLABS]First, we observe the Light Blue Macro Supports and the Pink Macro Resistances. These channels are automatically formed based on market data, identifying pivot points in price history and determining the strength of these levels based on the number of pivot points within these same channels. When the price interacts with the macro Supports, we have a strong reaction that we can take advantage of in two ways:
1. The first and most common, as we can see in the chart, is that these zones elicit a strong reaction, and the price respects the channel. For us, as traders, it signifies a pivot point where we can initiate a trade, either a buy at the macro Support or a sell at the macro Resistance.
2. The second way to use them, for which this algorithm is also prepared, is in case a movement occurs where the price breaks these Macro Supports or Macro Resistances. We have a special alert that will notify us because when these macro channels are broken, they tend to do so violently in a move that we can also capitalize on. Usually, when such a breakout occurs, we will visit the next support or resistance channel, which can bring us significant benefits.
The following complex and highly accurate calculation provided by this indicator allows us to work with price supports and resistances within the internal structure of macro channels. As we can see in the chart, "boxes" are formed that represent the detected support and resistance areas. It also detects breakouts when the price crosses below the support "box" or above the resistance "box" and displays labels on the chart indicating when the breakout occurred, all in real-time. But here comes something very special: the algorithm also has a calculation that, as we see in the chart, there are occasions when the breakout occurs, but the price returns to the support or resistance "box" and is detected. At this moment, a label appears on the chart indicating a possible confirmation of the breakout. In other words, as the price initially broke out but returned to the "box," the algorithm will notify us with another label and a special alert when the price confirms the breakout.
At the same time, we can see in the chart that the algorithm also provides us with a volume profile that allows us to see where the most trading activity has concentrated based on price levels. We can also use it to identify support and resistance levels based on the point of control (POC) and value area levels. As we can see in the chart, there are labels with the exact price where the highest volume was traded. The top label in the chart shows the highest price, and the last label we see is for the lowest price. These displayed labels are within the defined range of retrocession or Lookback Length, which we can configure in our indicator. As we observe, the algorithm shows a strong confluence between the Macro Support channels and the volume profile labels, confirming the strongest areas of the range.
Finally, after calculating supports and resistances from three different perspectives, the algorithm provides us with a macro view of the price in the form of trend lines. In other words, it shows us supports and resistances in the form of diagonal channels where we can see trends in the market and areas where the price has historically encountered difficulties in advancing or retreating, which we can corroborate with the supports and resistances mentioned at the beginning.
As we can see in the chart, the algorithm also shows us labels with the exact price where angular price supports and resistances are located. These calculations are very important as they provide a trend perspective, and we can get an idea of where the price is headed, combining these with the other support and resistance calculations.
Remember that all the previous calculations have their own alerts for when supports or resistances are broken, or in the case of new channels being created, also when there is a breakout of a box or a confirmation of a breakout.
The second type of alert from the indicator is configured to make our indicators work for us without the need to be present on the chart, thanks to special programming within the indicator's code. It will execute automatic buys and sells on our preferred exchange through an alert configured for the 3Commas bot. All you need to do is input your Bot ID, provided by 3Commas, into the alert. All premium indicators come with a configuration explanation that will guide you in detail on where to input your Bot ID.
ESPAÑOL:
En primer lugar, observamos los Macro Soportes en color azul claro y las Macro Resistencias en color rosa. Estos canales se forman automáticamente en función de los datos del mercado, identificando puntos de pivote en el historial de precios y determinando la fuerza de estos niveles según la cantidad de puntos de pivote dentro de estos mismos canales. Cuando el precio interactúa con los macro Soportes, tenemos una fuerte reacción que podemos aprovechar de dos formas:
1. La primera y más común, como observamos en el gráfico, es que estas zonas provocan una fuerte reacción, y el precio respeta el canal. Para nosotros, como traders, significa un punto de pivote donde podemos generar una entrada, ya sea de compra en el macro soporte o de venta en la macro resistencia.
2. La segunda forma de utilizarlos, para la cual este algoritmo también está preparado, es en caso de que se genere un movimiento en el que el precio rompa estos Macro Soportes o Macro Resistencias. Contamos con una alerta especial que nos avisará, ya que al romperse estos macro canales suelen hacerlo con violencia en un movimiento que también podemos aprovechar. Regularmente, cuando existe este rompimiento, visitaremos el siguiente canal de soporte o resistencia, lo que nos puede traer grandes beneficios.
El siguiente cálculo complejo y muy preciso que nos ofrece este indicador nos permite trabajar con soportes y resistencias del precio dentro de la estructura interna de los canales macro. Como observamos en el gráfico, se producen "boxes" que representan las áreas de soporte y resistencia detectadas. Además, detecta breakouts cuando el precio cruza por debajo del "box" de soporte o por encima del "box" de resistencia y muestra etiquetas en el gráfico que nos indican cuándo ocurrió el breakout, todo esto en tiempo real. Pero aquí viene algo super especial: el algoritmo también tiene un cálculo que, como vemos en el gráfico, hay ocasiones en las que el breakout ocurre, pero el precio retorna al "box" de soporte o resistencia y es detectado. En este momento, aparece una etiqueta en el gráfico que nos muestra que estamos ante una posible confirmación del breakout. Es decir, como el precio había hecho en primer lugar el breakout pero regresó al "box", el algoritmo nos avisará con otra etiqueta y alerta especial cuando el precio confirme el breakout.
Al mismo tiempo, observamos en el gráfico que el algoritmo también nos muestra un perfil de volumen que nos permite ver dónde se ha concentrado la mayor actividad de negociación en función de los niveles de precios. También podemos usarlo para identificar niveles de soporte y resistencia basados en el punto de control (POC) y los niveles de valor (Value Area). Como vemos en el gráfico, tenemos etiquetas con el precio exacto donde se negoció la mayor cantidad de volumen. La etiqueta superior del gráfico nos muestra el precio más alto, y la última etiqueta que observamos es la de la parte baja, que nos indica el precio más bajo. Estas etiquetas mostradas están dentro del rango de retroceso definido o Lookback Length, que podemos configurar en nuestro indicador. Como observamos, el algoritmo nos muestra una fuerte confluencia entre los canales de soporte Macro y las etiquetas del perfil de volumen, lo que nos confirma las áreas más fuertes del rango.
Por último, después de hacer los cálculos de soportes y resistencias desde tres perspectivas distintas, el algoritmo nos proporciona una visión macro del precio en forma de líneas de tendencia. Es decir, nos muestra soportes y resistencias en forma de canales diagonales donde tendremos representadas las tendencias en el mercado y áreas en las que el precio históricamente ha encontrado dificultades para avanzar o retroceder, lo que podemos corroborar con los soportes y resistencias de los que hablamos al principio.
Como observamos en el gráfico, el algoritmo también nos muestra las etiquetas con el precio exacto donde se encuentran los soportes angulares del precio y las resistencias angulares. Estos cálculos son importantísimos, ya que nos ofrecen una perspectiva de tendencia y podemos tener una visión de hacia dónde se dirige el precio, combinando estos con los otros cálculos de soportes y resistencias.
Recuerden que todos los cálculos anteriores tienen su propia alerta para cuando los soportes o resistencias se quiebren o en su caso, se creen nuevos canales, también cuando haya una ruptura de un "box" o una confirmación de ruptura.
El segundo tipo de alerta del indicador está configurada para que nuestros indicadores trabajen para nosotros sin necesidad de estar presentes en el gráfico, esto mediante una programación especial dentro del código del indicador que realizará compras y ventas automáticas en nuestro Exchange de preferencia mediante una alerta configurada para el bot 3Commas. Solo bastará con que pongamos nuestro número de Bot o Bot ID que da el proveedor de 3Commas y lo insertemos en la alerta. Todos los indicadores premium tienen en su configuración una explicación detallada sobre dónde poner tus Bot ID.
TMA Bands with Break Arrow @ClearTradingMind
The "TMA Bands with Break Arrow" indicator, developed by ClearTradingMind, is designed to provide traders with insights into potential trend reversals based on the movement of price within a channel defined by the Triangular Moving Average (TMA) and its bands. The TMA is a smoothed moving average, and this indicator adds upper and lower bands to visualize potential breakouts.
Key Components:
1. TMA Bands: The indicator plots the upper and lower bands of the TMA channel. These bands represent potential overbought (upper band) and oversold (lower band) conditions.
2. Break Arrows: The indicator generates buy (green triangle up) and sell (red triangle down) arrows when the closing price breaks above the upper band or below the lower band, indicating a potential trend reversal.
3. Background Color: The background color dynamically changes based on the last generated signal. A blue background suggests a recent buy signal, while a red background indicates a recent sell signal. This provides a quick visual reference for the prevailing market sentiment.
Usage:
1. Trend Reversals: Traders can use the buy and sell arrows as signals for potential trend reversals. A buy signal suggests a possible upward trend, while a sell signal suggests a potential downward trend.
2. Channel Breakouts: Watch for price breaking above the upper band (buy signal) or below the lower band (sell signal). These breakouts may indicate the start of a new trend.
3. Volatility Analysis: The width of the TMA channel represents volatility. A widening channel suggests increased volatility, while a narrowing channel suggests decreasing volatility.
4. Background Color: The background color provides additional context. A blue background indicates recent bullish sentiment, while a red background suggests recent bearish sentiment.
Parameters:
- TMA Period: The number of bars used to calculate the Triangular Moving Average.
- ATR Period: The number of bars used to calculate the Average True Range (ATR) for determining the width of the TMA channel.
- ATR Multiplier: A multiplier applied to the ATR to determine the width of the TMA channel.
Note: This indicator is a tool to assist traders in their analysis, and it is recommended to use it in conjunction with other technical and fundamental analysis methods for more comprehensive decision-making.
Disclaimer: Trading involves risk, and this indicator does not guarantee profit. Users should conduct thorough analysis and risk management before making trading decisions.
Vaidotas Momentum ScoreHello Traders!
Discover Myfractalrange latest addition on TradingView, Vaidotas Segenis Momentum Score.
How people calculate Momentum is subjective and many people (even professionals) use different Momentum formulas depending on how they view it. This is sometimes confusing for traders.
The purpose of this indicator is to identify periods of strong price momentum relative to historical volatility. Higher momentum scores indicate stronger price trends, while lower scores suggest weaker trends. Traders and investors may use this indicator to identify potential buy or sell signals based on the strength of price movements. The formula Vaidotas uses calculate Momentum Score for different periods based on the price data.
There are 3 different look back periods in the script, you will find them in "Input":
Period 1 : 10 Days
Period 2 : 30 Days
Period 3 : 90 Days
Now let's go over the different steps of the formula:
Step 1 - Calculate the daily normal returns : this gives the daily percentage change in price
Step 2 - Calculate the standard deviation of the daily normal returns over a specific look back period (Default: 100 days) : the standard deviation measures the volatility or dispersion of the returns
Step 4 - Calculate the squared standard deviation multiplied by the square root of the respective period: This is done for three different periods (Period 1, Period 2, Period 3), it amplifies the standard deviation by the square root of the period, which gives more weight to recent price changes.
Step 5 - Calculate the normal returns for each period: This calculates the percentage change in price over the specified period
Step 5 - Calculate the momentum score for each period: This score represents the relative strength or momentum of the price change compared to the expected volatility.
Using the momentum indicator involves interpreting the values and considering certain thresholds to make trading decisions. While there is no definitive rule for all markets and assets, we can provide you with a general guideline on how traders may want to use the indicator and explain the significance of certain values:
1) Strong Trend: When the momentum score is significantly positive (above a certain threshold, such as +2), it suggests a strong upward price trend.
2) Weak Trend: Conversely, when the momentum score is significantly negative (below a certain threshold, such as -2), it indicates a strong downward price trend. Traders may interpret this as a potential signal to enter or maintain a short position, expecting the trend to continue.
3) Lack of Trend: When the momentum score is close to zero, it suggests a lack of significant trend or sideways movement in the price. Values around 0 indicate a potential range-bound market or consolidation.
However, it's important to note that the specific threshold values for defining significant trends or reversals may vary depending on the asset, timeframe, and market conditions. Traders often adjust these thresholds based on their own experience and backtesting results.
Here are a few more examples to illustrate the use of the momentum indicator:
- Example 1 - Strong Uptrend Confirmation :
The momentum score is consistently above +2, indicating a strong upward trend. Traders may consider this as a potential signal to enter or maintain a long position, expecting the trend to continue.
- Example 2 - Reversal Signal :
The momentum score has been positive for an extended period but starts to decline and eventually crosses below -2. This could be seen as a potential reversal signal, suggesting that the uptrend is losing strength and a bearish trend might develop. Traders may consider exiting long positions or even taking short positions based on this reversal signal.
- Example 3 - Sideways Market :
The momentum score fluctuates around 0, without displaying any significant positive or negative values. This indicates a lack of clear trend and suggests that the asset is trading in a range or consolidating. Traders may choose to avoid taking new positions until a stronger trend emerges.
Why is it interesting to use different look back periods?
The use of different look back periods in the momentum indicator formula allows traders to assess momentum across multiple timeframes. By comparing the momentum results for each period, traders can gain a broader perspective on the strength of the trend and potential opportunities. Here's how a trader might use the different look back periods and their corresponding momentum results:
1) Identifying Consistency: Traders can compare the momentum results for different periods to assess the consistency of the trend. If the momentum scores for all periods are consistently positive or negative, it suggests a strong and consistent trend across multiple timeframes. This can provide traders with higher confidence in the trend's strength and potential trading opportunities.
2) Convergence or Divergence: Traders can analyze the relationship between the momentum results for different periods. If the momentum scores for all periods are converging (moving closer together), it indicates a higher degree of agreement across different timeframes and strengthens the signal. Conversely, if the momentum scores for different periods diverge (move apart), it may suggest a weakening or conflicting trend. Traders should exercise caution when the momentum scores diverge as it may signal a potential reversal or market uncertainty.
3) Confirmation of Momentum: Traders can use the momentum results for different periods to confirm the strength of a trend. For example, if the momentum scores for shorter periods (e.g., Period 1) are significantly higher than those for longer periods (e.g., Period 2 and Period 3), it suggests a recent increase in momentum and a potentially stronger trend. This confirmation can assist traders in making more informed trading decisions and timing their entries or exits.
4) Multiple Timeframe Analysis: Traders often employ a multiple timeframe analysis approach to validate their trading decisions. By comparing the momentum results for different periods, traders can assess the alignment of momentum across various timeframes. For instance, if the momentum scores for shorter, medium, and longer periods all indicate a strong trend in the same direction, it reinforces the conviction in the trade.
As a conclusion, the momentum indicator can be useful to traders for several reasons:
1) Identifying Trend Strength: The momentum indicator helps traders assess the strength of a price trend. When the momentum score is high, it suggests that the trend is strong and likely to continue. This information can be valuable for trend-following strategies, as it helps traders identify potentially profitable opportunities and stay on the right side of the market.
2) Spotting Reversals: Momentum indicators can also help traders identify potential trend reversals. When the momentum score diverges from the price movement, it may indicate a weakening trend or an upcoming reversal. Traders can use this signal to adjust their positions or look for opportunities to enter or exit trades.
3) Confirming Breakouts: Breakout traders often use momentum indicators to confirm the validity of a breakout. If a price breaks above a resistance level, and the momentum score also increases significantly, it provides additional confirmation that the breakout is strong and may continue. This helps traders have more confidence in their breakout trades.
4) Setting Stop Loss and Take Profit Levels: By understanding the strength of a price trend through the momentum indicator, traders can set appropriate stop-loss and take-profit levels. A strong momentum score may indicate that a trend is likely to continue, allowing traders to set wider profit targets. Conversely, a weak momentum score may suggest that the trend is losing steam, prompting traders to set tighter stop-loss levels to protect their capital.
4) Divergence Analysis: Momentum indicators can be used in conjunction with other technical indicators to identify divergences. Divergence occurs when the price and momentum indicator move in opposite directions. It can signal potential trend reversals or shifts in market sentiment, providing traders with opportunities to adjust their positions.
It's important to note that while momentum indicators can be useful tools, they should not be relied upon solely for making trading decisions. It's recommended to use them in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and consider other factors such as market conditions, risk management, and fundamental analysis. Remember that the momentum indicator is just one tool among many, and it's important to consider other factors such as volume, trend, volatility, and overall market conditions when making trading decisions. Additionally, using stop-loss orders and proper risk management techniques is crucial to mitigate potential losses.

TradeChartist Actuator™TradeChartist Actuator is an extremely functional indicator that converts the price action volatility and momentum into a meaningful trading system (based on user defined Standard Deviation Factor), that consists of expanding/contracting Volatility Range Bands, Dynamic Trend Support/Resistance Bands and 2 types of Breakout Signals in a visually stunning design. The script also neatly packs in ZigZag & manual/automatic Fibonacci Retracement tools, option to filter the signals using an external filter and other useful extras like ™TradeChartist Dollar Candles and much more.
===================================================================================================================
™TradeChartist Actuator User Manual
█ Actuator Range Bands
Actuator Range Bands consists of a Mean line, an Upper Band and a Lower Band which are based on user defined Standard Deviation Factor (Default - 1.618, Min - 0.5, Max - 2). The 1.618 factor works extremely well as the unnecessary volatility data of the bands are eliminated by Actuator's logic. In my personal tests, 1.618 works consistently better than any other value in visually showcasing the true volatility range. By eliminating the unnecessary volatility data from the original non-stabilized bands, Actuator helps detect price momentum by detecting two types of breakouts.
Bands Breakout - Filtered
When the price breaks out of the upper or lower band after a trend, there is a strong possibility of a reversal especially when the volatility expansion/contraction takes place. This is detected using a built in filter with the Filtered Bands Breakout and the user can choose to use the closing price or High/Low price as the trigger for breakouts. This trade setup is very useful especially at zones where the Actuator Range Bands contract or squeeze after an expansion as shown in the OANDA:XAUUSD 1hr chart below.
Also, after a consistent expansion of the bands with price trending in the upper channel or the lower channel, users can spot good profit taking or Short trade opportunities with confirmation of overbought price and if possible a strong bear divergence as show in the BINANCE:LUNAUSDTPERP 1hr chart below.
It can be seen from the chart above that even though Actuator is designed to detect Extreme Bands Breakout using High/Low price, it is done with a little bit of filtering by the script logic and hence didn't generate a Bear signal at the lower band support zone.
Mean Breakout - Filtered
In most Mean Reversion models, mostly oscillators, the mean plays an important role in helping traders predict the price dynamic, but it also presents a challenge whether that mean will act as support or resistance so the trader can take a position that will have a high probability of success. Filtered Mean Breakout helps exactly to identify the price dynamic at the mean zone and helps reduce the dilemma. Actuator uses Volatility Trend and Momentum of the price action at mean to determine Bull/Bear breakouts. Following NASDAQ:AAPL 1hr chart shows an example of 2 instances of Filtered Mean Breakout detection, one bull and one bear and further area where no Breakout was detected in spite of price crossing the mean.
This Breakout type is really helpful in spotting early moves and also reduces the high volatility risk of Extreme Bands Breakout in some cases.
===================================================================================================================
█ External Filter
Actuator breakout signals can be further filtered using the feature of connecting an external signal as a trade filter.
External filter like RSI , MACD etc. can be used to filter breakouts by connecting to ™TradeChartist Actuator under ╔═══ 𝗣𝗹𝘂𝗴 𝗙𝗶𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 ═══ 🔌 dropdown by enabling 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐄𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐫.
To get the external filter to work, 𝐒𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐓𝐲𝐩𝐞 must be set right. For plots that are non oscillatory like Moving Averages, Super Trend etc., choose type as Non Oscillatory and for Oscillators like RSI , CCI , MACD etc., choose type as Oscillatory .
For Oscillators, levels must be specified for 𝐎𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐁𝐮𝐥𝐥 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞 and 𝐎𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞, especially if the Oscillator doesnt have 0 as midline, like RSI . Even for 0 mid oscillators like CCI , filter levels like 100/-100 work effectively to filter noise.
Use 𝐁𝐮𝐥𝐥/𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐥 under Actuator Visuals section to paint the trade zones background. It helps visually see the effect of filters on the breakout entries and also the trade performance.
The following chart shows the Filter settings with ™TradeChartist Momentum Drift Oscillator connected to Actuator as Oscillatory signal with filter values 0.
The two example charts of 1hr BINANCE:BTCUSDT below shows the difference in Actuator signals based on Oscillatory signal from ™TradeChartist Momentum Drift Oscillator and the difference can be seen from the highlighted Bull/Bear Background Fill.

===================================================================================================================
█ Dynamic Trend Support/Resistance Bands
In addition to Volatility Range Bands, Actuator also plots Dynamic Trend Support and Resistance bands that are more sensitive to price action and helps the user determine growing support/resistance which is indicated by coloured dots. These dots normally appear when the Support or Resistance stays at the same level for a few bars and change between Bull and Bear colours based on how the price interacts with them as shown below.
===================================================================================================================
█ Useful Trade Tools
™TradeChartist Dollar Candles
Dollar Candles help detect the volatility exhaustion prices and plots $ signs to help the trader take profits or move stop loss levels to secure gains. The $ signs do not appear for every trade zone, but whenever price hits a critical level, it shows up above price bar (for Bull trend) or below price bar (for Bear trend) in real time. Users can also set alerts for Dollar Candles with Once Per Bar setting. The Daily NASDAQ:TSLA chart below shows the Dollar Candles on both Bull and Bear trends.
It is important to note that taking pockets of profits on a leveraged trade position or moving up stop loss to maximize trend gains at $ candles will help increase Average Profitability Per Trade (APPT) .
Bull/Bear Background Fill
Bull/Bear Background Fill paints the trade zones in Bull and Bear colours. This helps visualize the difference in trade zones when testing various settings and also helps analyze past performance of Actuator Signals with or without the use of External Filter.
Entry Stop Loss Reference
Reference zone for stop loss has always been a tricky one for traders. Using a fixed percentage stop at entry may not be best during high volatility moves. Over the extensive period of Actuator testing, a simple solution to this problem was found. The previous trend's Range Bands Mean Line served as a perfect reference point for Entry Stop. Also while analysing this Mean line, it was found to be a perfect horizontal support/resistance line and also helped detect unproductive trades. The example 15m chart of NASDAQ:AMD shows how the Entry Stop Loss Reference performed.
Stop Line Touch Points plot orange touch points on the Stop Line whenever the price hits it during the trade.
Actuator Colour Bars
Actuator Colour Bars paints the Momentum Strength on the price bars. This helps visually see the price bars venturing into the Overbought or the Oversold zones. Also, this feature also helps spot divergences as higher highs or lower lows with less intense Bull/Bear colour than the previous high/low shows diminishing momentum as shown in the 1h chart of OANDA:GBPJPY below.
===================================================================================================================
█ ZigZag & Fibonacci Toolkit
Actuator plots developing and completed ZigZags based on Bull and Bear trend depending on the Breakout Type and Breakout Price from the settings.
Option to enable or disable 𝐙𝐢𝐠𝐙𝐚𝐠 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫 which can be helpful for Harmonic traders.
Option to display 𝐙𝐢𝐠𝐙𝐚𝐠 𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐬/𝐋𝐨𝐰𝐬 and 𝐑𝐒𝐈 𝐚𝐭 𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐬/𝐋𝐨𝐰𝐬 in one of two styles.
Two types of Fibonacci to choose from - 𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐨-𝐅𝐢𝐛𝐬 and 𝐅𝐢𝐛𝐬 𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧 𝐋𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤.
𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐨-𝐅𝐢𝐛𝐬 option plots Auto Fibonacci levels based on Bull/Bear trend depending on user specified Breakout Type and Breakout Price.
𝐅𝐢𝐛𝐬 𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧 𝐋𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 plots Fibonacci levels based on the highest high and lowest low of the lookback period (𝐃𝐚𝐲𝐬 or 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐞𝐬).
Fibonacci levels can be reversed by enabling 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞 from settings.
Enabling 𝐂𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐅𝐢𝐛 𝐋𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐥 displays the current Fib level of the developing price bar.
Option to customize Fib levels and colours.
4hr chart of BINANCE:BTCUSDT showing Auto Fibonacci levels, Zig-Zag with Trend High/Lows, Zig-Zag connectors with Fib Ratios and RSI at Trend High/Low prices.
Note:
If momentum doesn't slow down, the fibs can extend beyond 1 and may continue way beyond 4.618 fib level. These are quite rare depending on how distant the near high/low is based.
ZigZag and Fibonacci are good reference indicators and should always be used as confirmations rather than standalone indicators.
===================================================================================================================
█ Actuator Colour Scheme
Actuator employs 3 built in colour schemes namely Chilli , Flame and Sublime Grayscale and a versatile colour scheme Custom which enables the user to customise the colour combinations of the components of the Actuator script.
===================================================================================================================
█ Alerts
Alerts can be created for the following.
Actuator Bull Breakout Signal - Once Per Bar Close
Actuator Bear Breakout Signal - Once Per Bar Close
Actuator Long Dollar - Take Profit - Once Per Bar
Actuator Short Dollar - Take Profit - Once Per Bar
Actuator Stop Line Hit - Once Per Bar
Note: The script doesn't repaint, so the alerts can be used with confidence. To check this, users can do bar replays to check if the plots and markers stay in the same place.

TradeChartist Visualizer ™TradeChartist Visualizer is a fully packed Trader's toolkit that helps decide Trade Entries and Exits based on Bollinger Bands and Donchian Channels breakouts and can be further exploited by the use of various visualizers and built in Filters like Ichimoku Cloud, 15 different Moving Averages, RSI, TradeChartist's original MA Visualizer and Automatic Levels Generator.
===================================================================================================================
Bollinger Bands is a classic indicator that uses a simple moving average of 20 periods, along with plots of upper and lower bands that are 2 standard deviations away from the basis line. These bands help visualize price volatility and trend based on where the price is, in relation to the bands.
Donchian Channels comprises of three plots - a upper band, a lower band and a mean line (or mid line of the channel). The upper band is based on highest high of N periods specified by the user and the lower band is based on the lowest low of N periods specified by the user. These channels help spot price breaching high or low of last N periods clearly, thereby aiding the trader to understand the price action of any security better on any given timeframe.
===================================================================================================================
╔═════ 𝗕𝗕 & 𝗗𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗹𝘀 ═════╗
™TradeChartist Visualizer is based on the idea of Bollinger Bands and Donchian Channels Breakout model for generating Trade Entries. Visualizer uses the following three fundamental plot options from the settings that the user can choose from, to spot breakouts, support/resistance levels and the trading price range of the security.
1. Bollinger Bands
The 𝟏. 𝐁𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬 option plots the Bollinger Bands for the chart timeframe (default is 55 SMA with 1 standard Deviation). This can be changed by entering different values in BB Sᴛᴀɴᴅᴀʀᴅ Dᴇᴠɪᴀᴛɪᴏɴ and MA Lᴇɴɢᴛʜ ғᴏʀ BB/Dᴏɴᴄʜɪᴀɴ Cʜᴀɴɴᴇʟs .
To use a different Moving Average for the Bollinger Bands Basis line, uncheck 𝐒𝐌𝐀 𝐁𝐁 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 - 𝐔𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐜𝐤 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐧𝐨𝐧-𝐒𝐌𝐀 𝐁𝐁
The option is enabled as default as it keeps the SMA as standard. Unchecking this option and choosing a different moving average out of the 15 MAs in the dropdown, the plot changes significantly for each. Also a warning label will appear on screen if Standard Deviation more than 1 is used for non standard MA for Bollinger Bands, as the settings must be tested for non-standard Bollinger Bands before planning to trade with it.
2. True Donchian Channels
The 𝟐. 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐞 𝐃𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐬 option plots Donchian Channels by inspecting the lookback lengths for highest highs and lowest lows of the user specified periods, which can be changed in Uᴘᴘᴇʀ Dᴏɴᴄʜɪᴀɴ Cʜᴀɴɴᴇʟ Lᴇɴɢᴛʜ and Lᴏᴡᴇʀ Dᴏɴᴄʜɪᴀɴ Cʜᴀɴɴᴇʟ Lᴇɴɢᴛʜ user input boxes from Visualizer settings.
3. Donchian Channels - MA and Non-MA Source
The 𝟑. 𝐃𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐬 - 𝐌𝐀/𝐍𝐨𝐧-𝐌𝐀 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐞 option plots modified Donchian Channels based on highest high and lowest low of Moving Average or the Source using user specified periods, which can be changed in Uᴘᴘᴇʀ Dᴏɴᴄʜɪᴀɴ Cʜᴀɴɴᴇʟ Lᴇɴɢᴛʜ , Lᴏᴡᴇʀ Dᴏɴᴄʜɪᴀɴ Cʜᴀɴɴᴇʟ Lᴇɴɢᴛʜ , MA Lᴇɴɢᴛʜ ғᴏʀ BB/Dᴏɴᴄʜɪᴀɴ Cʜᴀɴɴᴇʟs choosing the source plot from Sᴏᴜʀᴄᴇ and MA Type from MA ᴛʏᴘᴇ - (ғᴏʀ ᴘʟᴏᴛs 1 & 3) . For Donchian Channels plot of Non-MA Source, choose Use Source from MA ᴛʏᴘᴇ - (ғᴏʀ ᴘʟᴏᴛs 1 & 3) dropdown.
===================================================================================================================
╔═════════ 𝗠𝗔 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗿 ═════════╗
MA Visualizer is a powerful and very useful original visual method to plot Moving Averages of the close price of the security for user specified look back period in a visually appealing style in the form of colour coded bands. MA Visualizer not only helps the trader spot the price action of the security relative to the moving average, but also paints a visual picture of the trend strength, which must be seen and used on chart to appreciate its elegance.
Activate 𝗠𝗔 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗿 and choose the MA type from MA Vɪsᴜᴀʟɪᴢᴇʀ Tʏᴘᴇ dropdown and entering the lookback period in MA Vɪsᴜᴀʟɪᴢᴇʀ ᴘᴇʀɪᴏᴅ input box. MA Visualizer colour theme can be be changed from MA Vɪsᴜᴀʟɪᴢᴇʀ Cᴏʟᴏʀ Sᴄʜᴇᴍᴇ dropdown.
The faster of the two set of bands that form the MA Visualizer reacts to price action faster and can be clearly seen from its change of colour from Bull Colour to Bear Colour or viceversa earlier than the slower set of bands. The fill colour between the bands also helps the user stay in a trade or exit a trade based on other confirmators or filters included in ™TradeChartist Visualizer .

The script automatically detects the breakouts based on user specified settings under 𝗕𝗕 & 𝗗𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗹𝘀. Trade Entries are plotted on the real-time breakout candle, so it is recommended to wait for bar close before taking a position in the direction of the breakout.
𝗙𝗶𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀
Various Filters can be used from this heading to reduce noise and help make the trade decision more effective and eliminates unproductive trades when the price is ranging or during sideways movement.
To use Filters, enable 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐫 and choose the Filters from under Tʀᴀᴅᴇ Fɪʟᴛᴇʀ 1 and Tʀᴀᴅᴇ Fɪʟᴛᴇʀ 2 . If --- is chosen, no filter will be used. Trade filter parameters can be changed from under 𝗙𝗶𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 section of Visualizer settings. The two trade filter dropdowns enable traders to use upto 2 filters from the following.
══> MA filter - This filters entries after a breakout only if the close price had breached the MA price. Filter MA is based on the same settings as MA Visualizer. This MA used for Filter can also be plotted by enabling 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐌𝐀 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐫 (𝐌𝐀 𝐕𝐢𝐬𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬). To view this MA plot clearly, disable MA Visualizer.
══> MA Visualizer filter - This filters entries after a breakout only if both set of MA Visualizer bands had turned into same colour (either Bull or Bear Colour) agreeing with the direction of the breakout.
══> RSI filter - This filters entries after a breakout only if the RSI had crossed above RSI - Lᴏɴɢ Eɴᴛʀʏ Fɪʟᴛᴇʀ for Longs or if RSI had crossed below RSI - Sʜᴏʀᴛ Eɴᴛʀʏ Fɪʟᴛᴇʀ .
══> Kumo Breakout filter - This filters entries after a breakout only if price had closed above or below the Kumo of the Ichimoku Cloud in the direction of the breakout.
══> Price crossing Kijun Sen - This filters entries after a breakout only if close price had crossed Kijun Sen or the Ichimoku Base Line in the direction of the breakout.
To visualize the Kumo Breakout or Price crossing Kijun Sen, Ichimoku Cloud can be plotted on chart by enabling 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐈𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐦𝐨𝐤𝐮 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐝 from 𝗙𝗶𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 section of Visualizer settings.

Alerts
Alerts can be created for Long and Short entries by using Once Per Bar Close as Alert Frequency. Entries are generated on Real time bars based on Breakout and filter conditions. It is recommended to wait for bar close before taking a position based on Visualizer Trade Entries.
The indicator does not repaint and can be confidently used for alerts and trade entries without worrying about signals disappearing.
™TradeChartist Visualizer can also be connected to ™TradeChartist Plug and Trade to generate entries along with Targets, Stop Loss plots etc. Target and Stop Loss alerts can be created using Plug and Trade's Alerts system.
===================================================================================================================
There are several combinations of settings that can be tested on the security traded based on timeframe and risk/reward expectations. The indicator can be used for trade entries with filter combinations or can be used as standalone Visualizer for trend confirmations, levels etc. Following are a few examples using the Visualizer.
Example Charts
1. ETH-USDT 1hr chart using Bollinger Bands (55/1, SMA) with 89 period Hull MA as MA Visualizer filter for BB Entries.
2. AAPL 1hr chart using 34 period Donchian Channels with 89 period Zero-Lag EMA as MA Visualizer filter for Entries.
3.EUR-USD 1hr chart using 34 period Donchian Channels with 89 period TEMA as MA Visualizer Filter for Entries.
4. XBT Daily chart using 9/21 Donchian Channels with Kumo Breakout Filter and 34 period Hull MA Visualizer Filter for Entries connected to Plug and Trade.

Support and Resistance Levels with Breaks [LuxAlgo]This script provides basic pivot point Support and Resistance Levels to the user whilst displaying Break signal tags. It also has the ability to let the user display more significant breaks by filtering using the Volume Oscillator.
Only more significant breaks of these basic levels are displayed to the user when optimized which avoids noise and messy signals.
It will also display breaks with candles it deems to be bullish (e.g. having a longer upper or lower wick).
Notation
The notation of "B" denotes a break of either a Support or Resistance level with a volume greater than the threshold.
The notation of "Bull or Bear Wick" denotes a bullish or bearish candle on the break.
Settings:
Left Bars - the number of bars left hand side of the pivot.
Right Bars - the number of bars right hand side of the pivot.
Volume Threshold - the threshold value (%) for the Volume Oscillator.
Usage & Details:
Knowing when a pivot S/R level is broken with significance can be of great help to a trader. Many times significant levels may not be broken with significant force and the move is therefore weaker and possibly not worth trading.
QFT Crypto Bottom FeederQFT Crypto Bottom Feeder
This indicator is intended to be used with alerts and Autoview for buy signals. I do not have sell signals enabled at the moment. The goal is to catch the bottoms of markets swings. I use this for 1,3 and 5 min charts for small %s. You can adjust the base sensitivity as well as how far down it's looking to buy. Defaults are 3 candles for bases/resistance, .20% below base for buys. The buy plots are absolute locations - so where they lie, is where the buy signal will execute.
Multipower Entry SecretMultipower Entry Secret indicator is designed to be the ultimate trading companion for traders of all skill levels—especially those who struggle with decision-making due to unclear or overwhelming signals. Unlike conventional trading systems cluttered with too many lines and confusing alerts, this indicator provides a clear, adaptive, and actionable guide for market entries and exits.
Key Points:
Clear Buy/Sell/Wait Signals:

Intent:
Many traders get confused by charts filled with too many indicators and signals. This often leads to hesitation, missed trades, or taking random, risky trades.
In this Indicator:
You get a clean and clutter-free chart. Only the most important buy/sell/wait signals and relevant support/resistance/liquidity levels are shown. These update automatically, removing the “overload” and keeping your focus sharp, so your decision-making is faster and stress-free.
2. Exact Entry Guide
Intent:
Traders often struggle with entry timing, leading to FOMO (fear of missing out) or getting trapped in sudden market reversals.
In this Indicator:
The system uses powerful adaptive logic to filter out weak signals and only highlight the strongest market moves. This not only prevents you from entering late or on noise, but also helps avoid losses from false breakouts or whipsaws. You get actionable suggestions—when to enter, when to hold back—so your entries are high-conviction and disciplined.
3. HTF+LTF Logic: Multitimeframe Sync Analysis
Intent:
Most losing trades happen when you act only on the short-term chart, ignoring the bigger market trend.
In this Indicator:
Signals are based on both the current chart timeframe (LTF) and a higher (HTF, like hourly/daily) timeframe. The indicator synchronizes trend direction, momentum, and structure across both levels, quickly adapting to show you when both are aligned. This filtering results in “only trade with the bigger trend”—dramatically increasing your win rate and market confidence.
4. Auto Support/Resistance & Liquidity Zones
Intent:
Drawing support/resistance and liquidity zones manually is time-consuming and error-prone, especially for beginners.
In this Indicator:
The system automatically identifies and plots the most crucial support/resistance levels and liquidity zones on your chart. This is based on adaptive, real-time price and volume analysis. These zones highlight where major institutional activity, trap setups, or real breakouts/reversals are most likely, removing guesswork and giving you a clear reference for entries, exits, and stop placements.
5. Clear Action/Direction
Intent:
Traders need certainty—what does the market want right now? Most indicators are vague.
In this Indicator:
Your dashboard always displays in plain words (like “BUY”, “SELL”, or “WAIT”) what action makes sense in the current market phase. Whether it’s a bull trap, volume spike, wick reversal, or exhaustion—it’s interpreted and explained clearly. No more confusion—just direct, real-time advice.
6. For Everyone (Beginner to Pro)
Intent:
Most advanced indicators are overwhelming for new traders; simple ones lack depth for professionals.
In this Indicator:
It is simple enough for a beginner—just add it to the chart and instantly see what action to consider. At the same time, it includes advanced adaptive analysis, multi-timeframe logic, and customizable settings so professional traders can fine-tune it for their strategies.
7. Ideal Usage and User Benefits

Kairos AR EdgeEN
Kairos AR Edge is a closed-source (invite-only) Forex indicator providing statistical analysis of Asian session box breakouts and relative currency strength across 28 major pairs. Unlike standard breakout or trend-following tools, it consolidates breakout behavior into a single overview, helping traders quickly identify directional bias and strong/weak currencies. This aggregation provides unique insight not easily obtained from separate pair analysis.
Important Clarification:
Reversal and Continuation percentages are calculated for the pair on which the indicator is applied , showing how often a breakout returns (Reversal) or continues (Continuation) within the selected session window.
The Currency Strength Table is independent of these percentages. It scores each currency from -7 to +7 based on participation in Asian box breakouts across all 28 pairs, providing a relative strength overview regardless of the active pair.
The -7/+7 scale is derived from historical breakout occurrences and provides a quick reference for currency strength ranking
Indicator operates on two levels:
Session Bias Statistics: Builds an Asian session box for the active pair and analyzes breakout behavior. Users can select:
Reversal Mode : Percentage of breakouts that return to the opposite side within the selected timeframe
Continuation Mode : Percentage of breakouts that continue in the same direction within the timeframe
Currency Strength Table: Aggregates breakout behavior across all 28 pairs to provide a relative currency strength score (-7 to +7)
Visual Tools: Optional pivot-based bullish/bearish triggers and automatic session box visualization provide additional informational support.
Main Features:
Customizable Asian session box (start/end times and timezone)
Reversal or Continuation statistical mode
Automatic update of high/low levels
Currency Strength Table (-7 to +7)
Statistical table with historical breakout percentages
Optional visual triggers (pivot-based patterns)
Light/Dark theme support
Originality and Value:
Consolidates 28 pairs into a single view for immediate identification of market bias
Provides statistical insight into breakout behavior, not just trend-following or generic breakout alerts
Offers a quick-reference Currency Strength Table to identify strong/weak currencies without tracking multiple pairs individually
Important Notes:
Statistics are based on historical data only – no guarantee of future results
Educational and informational purposes only; not financial or trading advice

Kairos AR Edge è un indicatore closed-source (invite-only) che fornisce analisi statistica sulle rotture del box della sessione asiatica e forza relativa delle valute su 28 coppie principali. A differenza dei normali strumenti di breakout o trend-following, consolida il comportamento dei breakout in un’unica panoramica, aiutando i trader a identificare rapidamente bias direzionali e valute forti/deboli. Questa aggregazione offre insight unici non facilmente ottenibili analizzando coppie singole.
Chiarimento importante:
Le percentuali di Reversal e Continuation si riferiscono solo alla coppia su cui l’indicatore è applicato , calcolando quante volte una rottura ritorna (Reversal) o continua (Continuation) entro la finestra di sessione selezionata.
La Tabella di Forza Valute è indipendente da queste percentuali. Assegna a ciascuna valuta un punteggio da -7 a +7 in base alla partecipazione ai breakout del box asiatico su tutte le 28 coppie, fornendo un quadro della forza relativa indipendentemente dalla coppia attiva.
Il punteggio -7/+7 deriva dai breakout storici e fornisce un riferimento rapido per la forza delle valute.
Lo script opera su due livelli:
Statistiche Bias di Sessione: Costruisce il box della sessione asiatica per la coppia attiva e analizza i breakout. Modalità selezionabili:
Reversal : Percentuale di breakout che tornano verso il lato opposto entro la finestra temporale
Continuation : Percentuale di breakout che proseguono nella stessa direzione entro la finestra
Tabella di Forza Valute: Aggrega il comportamento dei breakout su tutte le 28 coppie, assegnando un punteggio da -7 a +7 per ciascuna valuta in base alla sua forza relativa
Strumenti Visivi: Box della sessione asiatica aggiornato automaticamente e trigger opzionali basati su pattern pivot, fornendo supporto informativo aggiuntivo.
Funzionalità principali:
Box della sessione asiatica personalizzabile (orari e timezone)
Modalità statistica: Reversal o Continuation
Aggiornamento automatico dei livelli high/low
Tabella di Forza Valute (-7 a +7)
Tabella statistica con percentuali di rottura storiche
Trigger visivi opzionali (pattern pivot)
Supporto tema chiaro/scuro
Originalità e Valore:
Consolida 28 coppie in un’unica panoramica per identificare immediatamente bias di mercato
Fornisce insight statistico sui breakout, non solo trend-following o alert generici
Tabella di Forza Valute rapida per identificare valute forti/deboli senza controllare molteplici coppie
Nota importante:
Le statistiche si basano solo su dati storici – nessuna garanzia di risultati futuri

BandBreak Pro (BB×ST×SRC) — Live-Sync Indicator📌 Overview
BandBreak Pro is a volatility + trend confirmation indicator designed to provide traders with clean breakout signals.
It synchronizes Bollinger Bands (BB), a selectable SRC line (price source), and Super trend (ST) into one unified logic.
⚡ Signals only trigger when price breaks the Bollinger Bands and the Super trend confirms the same direction.
📖 Basics & Definitions
1. Bollinger Bands (BB)
Bollinger Bands measure volatility by building an envelope around price.
Middle line (Basis) = Simple Moving Average (SMA).
Upper Band = SMA + (Multiplier × Standard Deviation).
Lower Band = SMA – (Multiplier × Standard Deviation).
👉 Meaning: A break above the upper band often suggests bullish strength, while a break below the lower band suggests bearish momentum.
2. SRC Line (Source Line)
The SRC line is a chosen price input: close, hlc3, or ohlc4.
It acts as the backbone since both BB and ST derive from it.
Benefit: Ensures everything is perfectly synchronized and avoids repainting issues.
3. Super trend (ST)
Supertrend is an ATR (Average True Range) based trend filter.
If price is above the ST line → Uptrend (Green).
If price is below the ST line → Downtrend (Red).
👉 Meaning: ST is a simple yet powerful filter to confirm trend direction and reduce false breakouts.
📌 CONCEPTS (with Calculations)
Hybrid Sync (History vs Realtime)
History: All calculations use confirmed OHLC via request.security (no lookahead) → no repaint.
Realtime: (if ON) calculations follow live chart OHLC → what you see is what you get.
Strict No-Repaint: Forces realtime bar to also use confirmed OHLC values.
👉 Formula:
if strict = true → use confirmed OHLC only
else if realtime and followChart = true → use chart OHLC
else → use confirmed OHLC
SRC Line (Selected Source)
User can select close, hlc3 = (high+low+close)/3, or ohlc4 = (open+high+low+close)/4.
This SRC drives Bollinger Bands and Supertrend.
👉 Formula:
SRC = close | hlc3 | ohlc4 (user choice)
Bollinger Bands (BB Break Logic)
Basis:
Basis = SMA(SRC, Length)
Standard Deviation:
Dev = StDev(SRC, Length)
Bands:
Upper = Basis + (Multiplier × Dev)
Lower = Basis - (Multiplier × Dev)
Breakout Filter:
UpBB = Upper × (1 + Buffer%)
DnBB = Lower × (1 – Buffer%)
👉 Meaning: Breakouts only count when price crosses filtered bands.
Supertrend (Directional Filter)
True Range:
TR = max(High – Low, |High – PrevClose|, |Low – PrevClose|)
ATR:
ATR = RMA(TR, ST_Length)
Bands:
BasicUp = (High+Low)/2 + (ST_Factor × ATR)
BasicDn = (High+Low)/2 – (ST_Factor × ATR)
Final Line (flip logic):
If Close > PrevUp → Trend = UP → use Dn line
If Close < PrevDn → Trend = DOWN → use Up line
Signal Formation (Confirmed Bar Only)
Long Condition:
Long = crossover(SRC, UpBB) AND Supertrend = UP
Short Condition:
Short = crossunder(SRC, DnBB) AND Supertrend = DOWN
Validation: Signals trigger only on barstate.isconfirmed (bar close).
🛠️ FEATURES
Clean, synced plots: Bollinger Bands, Basis line, SRC line, Supertrend line.
Hybrid sync modes: live-follow or strict no-repaint.
Bollinger controls: length, multiplier, buffer %, show/hide.
Supertrend controls: enable, ATR length, factor, show/hide.
Signal labels: BB×ST ↑ and BB×ST ↓.
Alerts: Built-in LONG/SHORT ready to use.
Overlay = true; optimized for intraday with higher label capacity.
📊 HOW TO USE
Timeframes: 5m–1H intraday; 2H–1D for swing trades.
Markets: Crypto, Forex, Indices, Equities.
Workflow:
Keep chart clean with only BandBreak Pro.
Start BB = 20 length, 2.0 multiplier. Use buffer 0.25–0.75% in choppy pairs.
Keep Supertrend ON to reduce false signals. Lower factor = faster flips.
After breakout, manage trades using S/R or BB midline.
SL = opposite ST line, TP = midline or nearest support/resistance.
⚠️ LIMITATIONS
Ranging markets may produce whipsaws.
Strict mode = safest but slower signals.
Not a strategy → no backtesting/PnL.
Parameters must be tuned for volatile/illiquid assets.
Always use with risk management.
🔔 ALERTS
BB×ST LONG → SRC crosses above upper band + ST = UP.
BB×ST SHORT → SRC crosses below lower band + ST = DOWN.
👉 Recommended: “Once Per Bar Close”.
NOTES
Buffer % = micro filter, useful for high-volatility assets.
Higher ST factor = fewer flips, more trend fidelity.
Lower ST factor = faster flips, more frequent signals.
🌟 Why BandBreak Pro is Unique
✅ Both BB and ST are calculated from the same hybrid OHLC SRC source → perfectly aligned & repaint-free.
✅ Only issues dual-confirmation signals → fewer false breakouts.
✅ Beginner-friendly (clear definitions included) + Pro-level customization (buffer %, sync modes).
✅ Multi-market: Crypto, Forex, Indices, Stocks.
🙏 Thanks
Bollinger Bands = John Bollinger’s volatility framework.
Supertrend = ATR-based classic TA tool.
SRC + Hybrid Sync = original implementation adapted for TradingView.
Delta Weighted Average Price (DWAP) @MaxMaserati 2.0MMM DWAP (Delta Weighted Average Price) - Trading Indicator Guide
Overview
The MMM DWAP (Delta Weighted Average Price) indicator analyzes volume-price relationships by incorporating buying and selling pressure (delta) to identify key support and resistance levels. This tool provides multi-timeframe analysis with momentum assessment and breakout detection capabilities.
Core Methodology
MMM DWAP calculates weighted average prices based on delta (buying vs selling pressure) rather than volume alone. This approach reveals where directional money flow creates sustainable support and resistance levels, providing traders with enhanced market analysis.
Key Innovation: Fair Value Magnetism
The market facilitates fair exchange between buyers and sellers. The indicator identifies dynamic fair value zones through delta-weighted cloud bands. Price tends to return to these levels, creating high-probability reaction points for trading decisions.
Technical Comparison
vs VWAP
- VWAP: Volume-weighted calculation showing where volume occurred
- MMM DWAP: Delta-weighted analysis revealing directional money flow with multi-timeframe integration
vs Moving Averages
- Moving Averages: Price-only calculation with inherent lag
- MMM DWAP: Real-time delta analysis providing delta-defended levels with market context
vs Bollinger Bands
- Bollinger Bands: Statistical volatility measures for squeeze detection
- MMM DWAP: Breakout prediction with confidence levels based on market pressure analysis
Visual Components
MMM DWAP Line (Orange): Primary fair value level based on delta weighting
Dynamic Cloud Bands: Overbought/oversold zones with fair value magnetism
Support/Resistance Lines: Multi-timeframe key levels with delta directional indicators
Squeeze Detection: Volatility compression alerts with breakout direction prediction
Analysis Table: Real-time consensus direction, momentum strength, and breakout predictions
Fair Value Zone Concept
Orange Line: Absolute Fair Value Price - the natural equilibrium level where price gravitates. Most important support/resistance level.
Price closed below the line
Price closed above the line
Upper Cloud = Bullish Fair Value Area (BuFV):
- When price is above Orange Line, Upper Cloud acts as support
- Price pullbacks to this zone create buying opportunities
- Represents fair value in bullish market conditions
Far Above Upper Cloud = "TOO HIGH" Zone:
- Price is overextended above fair value
- Overbought condition - likely to reverse DOWN to Upper Cloud (BuFV)
- Sell signal area or profit-taking zone for longs
Lower Cloud = Bearish Fair Value Area (BeFV):
- When price is below Orange Line, Lower Cloud acts as resistance
- Price rallies to this zone create selling opportunities
- Represents fair value in bearish market conditions
Far Below Lower Cloud = "TOO LOW" Zone:
- Price is overextended below fair value
- Oversold condition - likely to reverse UP to Lower Cloud (BeFV)
- Buy signal area or profit-taking zone for shorts
Rubber Band Effect:
- Upper Cloud (BuFV): If price stretches TOO FAR UP → snaps back DOWN to fair value area
- Lower Cloud (BeFV): If price stretches TOO FAR DOWN → snaps back UP to fair value area
Support & Resistance Intelligence
Resistance Line Behavior:
Red Arrow Down (R ↓):
- Bearish delta at resistance level
- Sellers are defending this resistance
- Strong selling pressure - price likely to reject downward
- Traditional resistance behavior - SELL zone
Green Arrow Up (R ↑):
- Bullish delta at resistance level
- Buyers are challenging this resistance
- Strong buying pressure pushing through
- Potential breakout signal - BUY zone
Support Line Behavior:
Green Arrow Up (S ↑):
- Bullish delta at support level
- Buyers are defending this support
- Strong buying interest - price likely to bounce up
- Traditional support behavior - BUY zone
Red Arrow Down (S ↓):
- Bearish delta at support level
- Sellers are overwhelming support
- Strong selling pressure breaking through
- Potential breakdown signal - SELL zone
When the arrow is → for the Support and Resistance line, it is a neutral state
4-Phase Breakout Cycle
Phase 1 - Normal Trading: Regular price movement with bands at normal width
Phase 2 - Band Tightening (SQUEEZE): Yellow diamonds appear as bands compress. Breakout direction prediction activates - early warning before the move.
Phase 3 - Balloon Formation: Bands expand outward, forming balloon shape around price. Preparation phase - volatility releasing but price still contained.
Phase 4 - Explosive Breakout: Price breaks decisively through expanded bands with volume surge and directional momentum. Execution phase.
Strategy Sequence:
- Tightening Phase = PREDICT (Get direction forecast)
- Balloon Phase = PREPARE (Confirm setup and position size)
- Breakout Phase = EXECUTE (Enter trade in predicted direction)
Trading Applications
Retest Strategy:
1. Identify trend bias through MMM DWAP line position
2. Monitor for breakouts above/below Orange Line
3. Wait for pullback to appropriate Fair Value zone (BuFV or BeFV)
4. Execute trades on reaction at fair value levels
High-Probability Setups:
- Bullish Breakout: Bullish consensus + Strong momentum + Resistance with strong buying delta
- Bearish Rejection: Bearish consensus + Strong momentum + Resistance with strong selling delta
- Support Bounce: Bullish consensus + Support with strong buying delta
Analysis Table Guide
Consensus Row: Overall market sentiment based on volume-weighted buying/selling pressure
- BULLISH: Look for long opportunities
- BEARISH: Look for short opportunities
Momentum Row: Current strength compared to recent average
- STRONG: High conviction moves - ride momentum
- WEAK: Low conviction moves - wait for better setups
Price Level Rows (R1, R2, S1, S2): Delta pressure at each level
- High positive delta = Buyers dominated (potential breakout level)
- High negative delta = Sellers dominated (potential rejection level)
Risk Management
- Stop Levels: Orange Line breaks or opposite band extremes
- Profit Targets: Opposite fair value zones
- Position Sizing: Based on momentum strength indicators
Technical Notes
- Delta Calculation: Bullish volume minus bearish volume for directional pressure
- Timeframe Independence: MMM DWAP and S/R levels can utilize different timeframes
- Squeeze Algorithm: Adaptive band width analysis for volatility compression
- Consensus Logic: Aggregate delta analysis across multiple price levels
- Fair Value Zones: Dynamic BuFV/BeFV adaptation based on Orange Line position
Note: This indicator combines volume-price analysis with order flow concepts. Effectiveness depends on market liquidity and proper application of fair value principles. Most effective setups occur when consensus direction, momentum strength, squeeze detection, and favorable delta history align.
