RXTrend█ OVERVIEW
The "RXTrend" indicator is a technical analysis tool based on a unique approach to trend identification using RSI values from overbought and oversold zones. Designed for traders seeking a precise tool to identify key market levels and trend direction, the indicator offers flexible settings, dynamic trend lines, candlestick coloring, and buy/sell signals, supported by alerts for key events.
█ CONCEPTS
"RXTrend" leverages the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to identify overbought and oversold zones, which are often significant areas on the chart due to potentially higher volume, increased volatility, or acting as pivot points. To address this, I created an indicator that uses RSI values from these zones, mapping them to price levels to determine the trend. Additionally, for a clearer market picture, boxes are added to highlight overbought and oversold zones on the chart, and candlestick coloring is based on the direction of the RSI moving average. This provides further confirmation of the trend direction and identifies potential correction or reversal points. The indicator is universal and works across all markets (stocks, forex, cryptocurrencies) and timeframes.
█ FEATURES
- RSI Calculation: Calculates RSI based on the closing price over a specified period, with a default length of 14.
- Trend Line: A smoothed trend line based on mapping RSI values from overbought (for downtrends) or oversold (for uptrends) zones to price levels. RSI values are transformed into prices using the price range from a selected period (default: 50 bars) and then smoothed to form the trend line. The line changes color based on the trend direction (blue for uptrend, orange for downtrend).
- Candlestick Coloring: Option to color candles based on the direction of the RSI moving average (RSI MA). Candle colors align with the trend and box colors (blue for uptrend, orange for downtrend, gray for neutral).
- Overbought and Oversold Zones: Identifies overbought (RSI > OB) and oversold (RSI < OS) levels, drawing dynamic boxes on the price chart to reflect these zones. Boxes update in real-time, adjusting to new highs and lows.
- Buy and Sell Signals: Generates buy signals (blue "Buy" labels) when the price crosses above the smoothed oversold line and sell signals (orange "Sell" labels) when the price crosses below the smoothed overbought line.
- Shadow Fill: Option to fill the space between the trend line and price (HL2) with adjustable transparency, aiding visual trend assessment.
Alerts: Built-in alerts for:
- Buy and sell signals.
- Appearance of new overbought/oversold boxes.
- RSI MA direction change (candle color change to uptrend or downtrend).
Customization: Allows adjustment of RSI length, overbought/oversold levels, smoothing period, colors, box and label transparency, and the option to keep boxes after RSI returns to normal.
█ HOW TO USE

Interpreting Signals:
- Trend Line: Shows market direction (blue for uptrend, orange for downtrend).
- Buy Signals: Blue "Buy" label appears when the price crosses above the smoothed oversold line, signaling a potential uptrend.
- Sell Signals: Orange "Sell" label appears when the price crosses below the smoothed overbought line, signaling a potential downtrend.
- Overbought/Oversold Boxes: Orange boxes indicate overbought zones (RSI > OB), blue boxes indicate oversold zones (RSI < OS). Boxes expand dynamically in real-time.
- Candlestick Coloring: Candle colors align with the trend and box colors, reflecting RSI MA direction.
- Alerts: Set up alerts in TradingView for buy/sell signals, new overbought/oversold boxes, or RSI MA direction changes.
- Combining with Other Tools: Use the indicator alongside support/resistance levels, Fair Value Gaps (FVG), or other indicators to confirm signals.
█ APPLICATIONS
The "RXTrend" indicator is designed to identify key market zones and trend direction, making it useful for trend-following and reversal strategies. It enables:
- Trend Confirmation: Candlestick coloring and the trend line help assess the dominant market direction, supporting entry or exit decisions. The trend line can act as a significant support/resistance level, and a price bounce from it may provide a good entry point, especially when confirmed by Fibonacci levels. Additionally, the appearance of overbought/oversold boxes combined with a change in candle color (RSI MA direction) may indicate an impending correction. This allows analysis of potential market overextension and correction endings, enabling multiple entries within a trend.
- Overbought and Oversold Zone Identification: Boxes highlight potential reversal or correction points, especially when combined with support/resistance levels or FVG.
- Signal-Based Strategies: Buy and sell signals can be used as entry points in a trend or as warnings of potential reversals.
█ NOTES
- The indicator is universal and works across all markets and timeframes due to its RSI-based and price-mapping logic.
- Adjust settings (e.g., RSI length, OB/OS levels, smoothing) to suit your trading style and timeframe.
- Use in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to enhance signal accuracy.
VWAP + Range Breakout (Pre-Signal for Manual Entry)WHAT IT DOES

unFair Value Gap Detector [theUltimator5]The unFair Value Gap Detector (uFVG) highlights imbalance zones that form when trend strength is weak but directional pressure spikes—a condition often followed by price reversion back into that level. Unlike the classic 3-candle ICT FVG, this tool is designed to help you have an unFair edge in gap retracement detection by plotting high probability gap reversion opportunities on the current timeframe and the next FIVE (yes five) higher timeframes.
What you’ll see:
Gap line per event: A single, no-nonsense line at the level price most often returns to.
Auto multi-timeframe view: uFVG ladders up through five higher timeframes and shows their levels too—each with its own color.
Smart de-clutter: Near-duplicate lines across timeframes are filtered so your chart stays readable.
Note: This indicator is intentionally minimalistic visually to minimize chart clutter, while still being an extremely powerful tool
Optional visuals:
Light background tint during quiet, coiling conditions.
Soft fill from price to the active line for quick context.
Compact labels that note the price and which timeframe printed it.
Why it is unique and effective (the “unfair” edge):
Early, practical context: Spots levels near when the imbalance forms—useful before the crowd catches on.
Clarity over noise: One line per event. No boxes, no sprawling zones, fewer “maybe” areas.
Timeframe confluence: When multiple timeframes cluster around the same price, you’ve got a stronger focal point.
Simple risk framing: If price slices through the line decisively, that idea’s done. Next.
How to use it:
Mean-reversion play: Look for price to tag the line, take profits into it, or fade a first reaction.
Continuation play: After the line is “mitigated,” reassess in the original direction.
Prioritize by timeframe: Higher-timeframe lines tend to carry more weight.
Respect clusters: Multiple lines stacked near one price often mark important pivots.
Customization
Colors: Separate colors for current and higher-timeframe lines.
Toggles: Turn on/off background highlights, line-to-price fill, and labels.
Minimal fuss: The rest is auto—timeframes, line lifecycle, and de-duplication are handled for you.
Liquidity Void Detector (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Liquidity Void Detector (Zeiierman) is an oscillator highlighting inefficient price displacements under low participation. It measures the most recent price move (standardized return) and amplifies it only when volume is below its own trend.
Positive readings ⇒ strong up-move on low volume → potential Buy-Side Imbalance (void below) that often refills.
Negative readings ⇒ strong down-move on low volume → potential Sell-Side Imbalance (void above) that often refills.
This tool provides a quantitative “void” proxy: when price travels far with unusually thin volume, the move is flagged as likely inefficient and prone to mean-reversion/mitigation.
█ How It Works
⚪ Volume Shock (Participation Filter)
Each bar, volume is compared to a rolling baseline. This is then z-scored.
// Volume Shock calculation
volTrend = ta.sma(volume, L)
vs = (volume > 0 and volTrend > 0) ? math.log(volume) - math.log(volTrend) : na
vsZ = zScore(vs, vzLen) // z-scored volume shock
lowVS = (vsZ <= vzThr) // low-volume condition
Bars with VolShock Z ≤ threshold are treated as low-volume (thin).
⚪ Prior Return Extremeness
The 1-bar log return is computed and z-scored.
// Prior return extremeness
r1 = math.log(close / close )
retZ = zScore(r1, rLen) // z-scored prior return
This shows whether the latest move is unusually large relative to recent history.
⚪ Void Oscillator
The oscillator is:
// Oscillator construction
weight = lowVS ? 1.0 : fadeNoLow
osc = retZ * weight
where Weight = 1 when volume is low, otherwise fades toward a user-set factor (0–1).
Osc > 0: up-move emphasized under low volume ⇒ Buy-Side Imbalance.
Osc < 0: down-move emphasized under low volume ⇒ Sell-Side Imbalance.
█ Why Use It
⚪ Targets Inefficient Moves
By filtering for low participation, the oscillator focuses on moves most likely driven by thin books/noise trading, which are statistically more likely to retrace.
⚪ Simple, Robust Logic
No need for tick data or order-book depth. It derives a practical void proxy from OHLCV, making it portable across assets and timeframes.
⚪ Complements Price-Action Tools
Use alongside FVG/imbalance zones, key levels, and volume profile to prioritize voids that carry the highest reversal probability.
█ How to Use
Sell-Side Imbalance = aggressive sell move (price goes down on low volume) → expect price to move up to fill it.
Buy-Side Imbalance = aggressive buy move (price goes up on low volume) → expect price to move down to fill it.
█ Settings
Volume Baseline Length — Bars for the volume trend used in VolShock. Larger = smoother baseline, fewer low-volume flags.
Vol Shock Z-Score Lookback — Bars to standardize VolShock; larger = smoother, fewer extremes.
Low-Volume Threshold (VolShock Z ≤) — Defines “thin participation.” Typical: −0.5 to −1.0.
Return Z-Score Lookback — Bars to standardize the 1-bar log return; larger = smoother “extremeness” measure.
Fade When Volume Not Low (0–1) — Weight applied when volume is not low. 0.00 = ignore non-low-volume bars entirely. 1.00 = treat volume condition as irrelevant (pure return extremeness).
Upper Threshold (Osc ≥) — Trigger for Sell-Side Imbalance (void below).
Lower Threshold (Osc ≤) — Trigger for Buy-Side Imbalance (void above).

ICT 00:00, 08:30, 09:30 & 13:30 Opens (NY) — Prior-Day HistoryICT 00:00, 08:30, 09:30 & 13:30 Opens (NY)
This is a derivative of ALPHAICTRADER’s open-source script, republished under the MPL-2.0 with clear attribution and documented changes. It plots four New-York–anchored intraday reference levels—0000, 0830, 0930, 1330—as short, right-padded stubs with clean side labels. Use these time anchors (ICT-style midnight + key US windows) to frame bias, volatility pockets, and intraday trade locations.
What’s original in this version (changes)
Right-padded stubs instead of chart-wide rays — each level ends N bars past the latest candle (configurable).
Side labels at the line tip — text-only labels (0000, 0830, 0930, 1330) that sit at the right end of each stub and update every bar.
Optional prior-day history — show Today only or Today + Prior Day; older lines/labels auto-pruned.
Per-anchor controls — Display, Style, Color, Width, and Show Label for each time.
What it plots (and why)
0000 (NY Midnight): daily session anchor for bias/liquidity context.
0830 (NY): macro data window (CPI/NFP/claims) where volatility often concentrates.
0930 (NY): US cash equity market open; opening-drive structure/acceptance tests.
1330 (NY): early-afternoon anchor for continuation vs. fade.
How it works (under the hood)
Session detection: time("1", session, "America/New_York"); first bar flagged via not na(ts) and na(ts ).
Anchor price: open of that first bar per session/day.
Rendering: lines drawn with xloc=bar_index from start bar to bar_index + Right Pad; x2 updates every bar (no extend.right).
Labels: placed at line.get_x2(line) + Label Pad, soft color variant; updated per bar to stay on the tip.
History: arrays keep either today only or today + yesterday and delete anything older immediately.
How to use
Add to any intraday chart (futures/FX/indices). Anchors are always NY-time; TradingView handles DST.
Inputs
00:00 / 08:30 / 09:30 / 13:30 (NY): Display, Line Style, Color, Width, Show Label
Right Edge: Right Pad (bars) · Label Pad (bars)
History: Show Prior Day (History) — off = today only; on = today + yesterday
Suggested pads: Right Pad 2–5 bars; Label Pad 0–2.
These are context anchors, not signals. Combine with your execution model (market structure, liquidity, FVG/OBs, etc.).

Machine Learning-Inspired Supply & Demand Zones [AlgoPoint]This indicator is a Smart Supply & Demand Zone tool, developed with principles inspired by Machine Learning (ML). It intelligently filters out market noise, allowing you to focus only on the most significant zones where institutional order flow is likely present.
💡 How It Works: Why Is This Indicator "Smart"?
Unlike traditional indicators that only measure simple price movements, this script uses an algorithm that asks the same critical questions an experienced market analyst would to qualify a zone:
- 1. Price Imbalance: How fast and aggressively did the price leave the zone? Our algorithm measures the body size of the "departure candle" relative to the current market volatility (ATR). A zone is only considered if it was formed by an explosive move that is statistically significant, indicating a major imbalance between buyers and sellers.
- 2. Volume Confirmation: Did the "smart money" participate in this move? The script checks if the volume on the departure candle was significantly higher than the recent average volume. A spike in volume confirms that the move was backed by institutional interest, adding strength and validity to the zone.
- 3. Valid Pivot Structure: Did the zone originate from a meaningful swing high or low? The algorithm first identifies a valid pivot structure, ensuring that zones are not drawn from insignificant or random price fluctuations.
Only when a potential zone passes these three critical tests—our "quality filter"—is it drawn on your chart.
🚀 Features & How to Use
Using the indicator is straightforward. You will see two primary types of boxes on your chart:
* 🟥 Red Box (Supply Zone): An area of potential resistance where selling pressure is likely to be strong. Look for potential shorting opportunities as the price approaches this zone.
* 🟩 Green Box (Demand Zone): An area of potential support where buying pressure is likely to be strong. Look for potential long opportunities as the price pulls back into this zone.
Dynamic Zone Management
This indicator is not static; it lives and breathes with the market:
- Fresh Zone: A newly formed zone appears in its full, vibrant color. These are the highest-probability zones as they have not yet been re-tested.
- Broken / Flipped Zone: You have full control over what happens when a zone is broken! In the settings, you can choose:
- Delete Zone: The zone will be removed completely when the price closes through it.
- Show as Broken (Flip): When broken, the zone will turn gray, stop extending, and remain on your chart. This is extremely useful for identifying Support/Resistance Flips, where a broken demand zone becomes new resistance, or a broken supply zone becomes new support.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
Fine-tune the indicator to match your personal trading style via the settings menu:
- Breakout Behavior: The most powerful feature. Choose between Delete Zone and Show as Broken (Flip) to customize your chart.
- Zone Finding Logic: Control the indicator's sensitivity.
- Selective: Requires both strong imbalance and high volume. Finds fewer, but higher-quality, zones.
- Moderate: Requires either strong imbalance or high volume. Finds more potential zones.
- Sensitivity Settings: Adjust the ATR Multiplier and Volume Multiplier to make the criteria for a "strong" zone stricter or looser.
Futures Confluence Delta (FCD) - Histogram
The Futures Confluence Delta (FCD) Histogram is a powerful trend-following indicator tailored for scalping futures on 1-minute charts. Displayed in a bottom panel like RSI or volume, it visualizes cumulative volume delta to identify bullish or bearish market momentum. The histogram turns green for positive delta (buying pressure, suggesting a long trend) and red for negative delta (selling pressure, indicating a short trend), providing quick insight into market direction.
This indicator is ideal for futures traders seeking confluence with other tools, such as VWMA or order block strategies. It uses a simple yet effective delta calculation (buy volume for up candles, sell volume for down candles, smoothed with EMA) to highlight trend strength, making it perfect for fast-paced scalping environments.
Key Features:
Cumulative Delta Histogram: Tracks buying vs. selling pressure, smoothed with an EMA for clarity.
Color-Coded Trend Signals: Green for bullish (long) trends, red for bearish (short) trends.
Customizable Settings: Adjust the delta lookback period and enable/disable daily reset for flexibility.
Optimized for 1-minute charts on futures.
Alert Support: Set alerts for trend changes to stay ahead of market shifts.
How to Use:
Add the indicator to your 1-minute chart. Observe the histogram in the bottom panel:
Green bars (positive delta) suggest a bullish trend, favoring long entries.
Red bars (negative delta) indicate a bearish trend, favoring short entries.
Combine with other indicators (e.g., VWMA, order blocks, or FVGs) for confluence.
Set alerts for trend changes via the FCD Long Trend or FCD Short Trend conditions.
Adjust settings (delta lookback, daily reset) to match your trading style.
Settings:
Delta Lookback Period (default: 14): Controls the EMA smoothing of the delta. Lower values increase sensitivity; higher values smooth trends.
Reset Delta Daily (default: true): Resets cumulative delta at the start of each trading day for futures session alignment.
Long Color (default: green): Color for bullish delta.
Short Color (default: red): Color for bearish delta.
Notes:
Ensure sufficient historical data (500+ bars) for accurate delta calculations.
Test on NQ for higher volatility, as it may show stronger delta signals compared to GC or ES.
Check the Pine Logs pane (“More” > “Pine Logs”) for any NA data issues if the histogram doesn’t display.

TAPDA Vision by TSINCHRONISE ft Grok This is the newly created TAPDA vision indictor 🔮
This time I used Grok to make the entire thing, It currently is working but I am refining and will be upgrading some features.
For now it can carry out a number of important tasks for TAPDA traders :
-Highlights FVGs that haven't been tapped within customizable size an time parameters
-Highlights OBs that haven't been tapped within customizable size an time parameters
-Has Option to Highlight PD Arrays in for 3 different specific times of day (optional)
-Has a Dynamic Highlight function which will highlight untapped PD arrays which were formed in the current hour you are using the indicator and adjusts every hour automatically
This is a work in progress but is useable - Updates to come.
Same-Direction Candles (Two Symbols)Same-Direction Candles (Two Symbols)
What it does
Highlights bars on your chart when two symbols print the same candle direction on the chosen timeframe:
Both Bullish → one color
Both Bearish → another color
Great for spotting synchronous moves (e.g., NQ & ES, QQQ & SPY), or confirming risk-on/risk-off with an inverse asset (e.g., NQ vs DXY with inversion).
How it works
For each bar, the script checks whether close > open (bullish), close < open (bearish), or equal (doji) for:
The chart’s symbol
A second symbol pulled via request.security() (optionally on a different timeframe)
If both symbols are bullish, it paints Bull color; if both are bearish, it paints Bear color. Dojis can be ignored.
Inputs
Second symbol: Ticker to compare (e.g., CME_MINI:ES1!, NASDAQ:QQQ, TVC:DXY).
Second symbol timeframe: Leave blank to use the chart’s TF, or set a specific one (e.g., 5, 15, D).
Invert second symbol direction?: Flips the second symbol’s candle direction (useful for inversely related assets like DXY vs indices).
Ignore doji candles: Skip highlights when either candle is neutral (open == close).
Coloring options: Toggle bar coloring and/or background shading; pick colors; set background transparency.
Alerts
Three alert conditions:
Both Bullish
Both Bearish
Both Same Direction (bullish or bearish)
Create alerts from the Add Alert dialog after adding the script.
Use cases
Index confluence: NQ & ES moving in lockstep
ETF confirmation: QQQ & SPY agreement
FX/Index risk signals: Invert DXY against NQ/ES to see when equity strength aligns with dollar weakness
Tips
For mixed timeframes (e.g., chart on 1m, ES on 5m), set Second symbol timeframe to the higher TF to reduce noise.
Keep Ignore dojis on for cleaner signals.
Combine with your own entry rules (structure, FVGs, liquidity sweeps).
Notes
Works on any symbol/timeframe supported by TradingView.
Overlay script; no strategy/entries/exits are executed.
Past performance ≠ future results; for education only.
Version: 1.0 – initial release (bar/background highlights, doji filter, inversion, multi-TF support, alerts).
Shelf FVG Alert Multi TF 3 [FINAL]shelf best i have ever seen it. thats pattern shows zones where we can see impuls
HTF POC with Zones & AlertsPlots a Point of Control (POC) per candle from a timeframe you choose (MTF). Because TradingView doesn’t expose true footprint data, the POC here is a proxy (choose: Body Mid, Range Mid, or Typical Price HLC3). The script draws the POC line and an optional POC zone (±% of that candle’s range), then alerts when price retests the zone (wick touches count).
Use it to:
Mark key levels inside candles that often act as magnets or reaction zones
Track retests of strong bars (imbalance) across higher timeframes
Add clean confluence with S/R, FVGs, or trend tools
Features: Selectable TF, zone width, extend lines/zones, historical caps, alerts, and info panel.
Note: This is an estimate of POC from OHLC, not real bid/ask volume. Use as context, not a standalone signal.
Volume Imbalance Analyzer - 70% & 80% Version1.01Here’s a clean “definition” you can drop into your docs. It explains **what** the indicator is, **what it helps with**, and **how** to use it—plain and practical.
# Definition
**Volume Imbalance Analyzer (70% & 80%)** flags bars where estimated buy vs. sell volume is heavily one-sided. It colors those bars, adds labels (B70/B80 or S70/S80), and can alert you in real time. The goal is to quickly spot spots of **aggressive participation** (buyers or sellers) that often act as magnets for a **retest** or as **exhaustion/continuation** areas.
# What it helps you do
* **Find high-energy bars** where one side dominates (potential turning or continuation points).
* **Plan retests:** Track when price comes back into the imbalance candle’s range (common entry/take-profit logic).
* **Filter trades:** Only act when the market shows unusual pressure (≥70% or ≥80%).
* **Add context to setups:** Combine with S/R, FVGs, or trend tools to time entries with less guesswork.
* **Alert-driven workflow:** Get notified the moment extreme pressure prints.
# How it helps (workflow)
1. **Scan for signals:**
* **B80/B70** = strong buying; **S80/S70** = strong selling.
* 80% is “extreme” and overrides 70%.
2. **Mark the zone:** The imbalance candle’s **high–low** defines a zone. Many traders wait for a **retest** into that range.
3. **Decide intent:**
* After **B80/B70**, look for pullbacks to buy (or fades if you see exhaustion).
* After **S80/S70**, look for rallies to sell (or fades if exhaustion).
4. **Confirm with context:** Check trend, key levels, liquidity, session timing, ATR/volatility.
5. **Manage risk:** Place stops beyond the zone; size trades so a failed retest doesn’t ruin the day.
# How it works (under the hood, briefly)
The script **estimates buy/sell volume** from each candle’s body, wicks, and total volume, then computes an **imbalance %**. If the % crosses **70%** or **80%** (scaled by a Sensitivity setting), it paints the bar, drops a label, and optionally fires an alert. It also stores the imbalance candle’s range so you can watch for a **retest**.
# Reading the signals (quick guide)
* **B80**: Extreme buyer pressure → watch for pullback buys or exhaustion shorts, depending on context.
* **B70**: Strong buyer pressure → mild continuation bias.
* **S80**: Extreme seller pressure → watch for rally sells or exhaustion longs.
* **S70**: Strong seller pressure → higher reversal probability noted in the table (informational).
# Configuration tips
* **Sensitivity**: Higher = more bars qualify (more signals).
* **Label distance**: Scales with ATR so labels don’t overlap candles.
* **Colors/opacity**: Separate for 70% vs 80% and buyer vs seller.
* **Alerts**: Enable to catch signals live without staring at the screen.
# Notes & limits
* Uses **estimation** (not true bid/ask) on most symbols; treat as a **context tool**, not a stand-alone system.
* The optional stats table’s “expected outcomes” are **informational**, not live probabilities.
* Works on any timeframe; results improve when combined with structure and risk controls.

Multi-Timeframe Bias Dashboard + VolatilityWhat it is: A corner table (overlay) that gives a quick higher-timeframe read for Daily / 4H / 1H using EMA alignment, MACD, RSI, plus a volatility gauge.
How it works (per timeframe):
EMA block (50/100/200): “Above/Below/Mixed” based on price vs all three EMAs.
MACD: “Bullish/Bearish/Neutral” from MACD line vs Signal and histogram sign.
RSI: Prints the value and an ↑/↓ based on 50 line.
Volatility: Compares ATR(14) to its SMA over 20 bars → High (>*1.2), Normal, Low (<*0.8).
Bias: Combines three votes (EMA, MACD, RSI):
Bullish if ≥2 bullish, Bearish if ≥2 bearish, else Mixed.
Display:
Rows: D / 4H / 1H.
Columns: Bias, EMA(50/100/200), RSI, MACD, Volatility.
Bias cell is color-coded (green/red/gray).
Position setting lets you park the table in Top Right / Bottom Right / Bottom Left (works on mobile too).
Use it for:
Quickly aligning intraday setups with higher-TF direction.
Skipping low-volatility periods.
Confirming momentum (MACD/RSI) when price returns to your OB/FVG zones.
Kootch EMA MapKootch EMA overlays the 200 EMA from M1, M5, M15, M30, H1, H4, and D1 on any chart so you always see where higher and lower-timeframe trend gravity actually is. It also builds an optional Fib channel between the most extreme MTF 200 EMAs (min/max), giving you clean intrachannel targets and confluence zones.
What it does
• Plots seven 200 EMAs (M1 → D1) simultaneously via MTF pulls
• Color/weight hierarchy: thicker lines = higher timeframe (clear priority)
• Right-edge TF tags (M1, M5, … D1) so you know exactly what you’re looking at
• Optional Fib levels between min/max MTF 200 EMAs (0 → 1 band) for entries, adds, and take-profit scaling
Why traders use it
• Immediate read on trend alignment vs. chop across timeframes
• Mean-reversion & continuation cues when price stretches from/returns to key EMAs
• Level stacking: use M30/H1/H4/D1 as bias, trade entries around lower-TF reactions
Inputs
• EMA Length (default 200)
• Label offset (push tags off the last bar)
• Show Fib channel toggle + color control
How I use it
• Bias from D1/H4/H1; execution from M5/M15.
• Fade or follow at Fib 0.382 / 0.618 inside the EMA envelope; scale out near Fib 1.0 into HTF EMAs.
• Skip trades when EMAs are braided and distances are compressed.
Notes
• Works on any symbol/timeframe; all TF EMAs are requested explicitly.
• This is a map, not a crystal ball: combine with your playbook (structure breaks, FVGs, liquidity, volume).
