X Opens+Overview:
The X Opens+ indicator is a precision tool designed for traders seeking to analyze market structure and behavior around key timeframe opens. It highlights the open prices of custom-selected higher timeframes—such as daily, weekly, or monthly sessions—and visualizes them directly on lower timeframes. These open levels often coincide with high-volume zones, market imbalance, and institutional interest, making them powerful reference points for intraday and swing trading strategies.
Key Features:
Custom Timeframe Anchoring: Users can select any timeframe (e.g., daily, 4H, 1W) to display its current and previous session opens directly on their active chart. This allows for flexible multi-timeframe analysis within a single view.
Price Reaction Zones: Timeframe opens are frequently areas of heightened liquidity and directional bias. By identifying these opens and their relationship to current price action, traders can anticipate areas of support/resistance, trend continuation, or reversal.
Derived Midpoints and Ranges: The indicator also computes and displays the previous session’s range midpoint (EQ), as well as extension bands (e.g., ±1.0x or ±1.5x the prior range). These levels are useful for contextualizing volatility expansion and identifying breakout or fade setups around key open zones.
Historical Session Mapping: In addition to live opens, the tool optionally displays opens and range-based levels from previous sessions. This historical layering gives traders a broader context of how price has respected or rejected these levels over time.
Labeling and Customization: Each level can be labeled and color-coded to match user preferences. The visibility, size, and style of each element (e.g., lines, labels, bands) are fully configurable for visual clarity and user alignment.
Use Cases:
Confirming bias around daily or weekly opens, especially during market opens or key economic releases.
Identifying equilibrium levels for mean reversion or continuation setups.
Using ±1.0 and ±1.5 range projections as dynamic targets or invalidation zones.
Anchoring to key sessions for volume profile or order flow-based strategies.
Summary:
X Opens+ is a data-driven utility that transforms static session opens into dynamic market tools. By spotlighting where institutional interest likely concentrates—at the opens of significant timeframes—this indicator provides traders with a structural edge in identifying key zones that influence price behavior throughout the trading day or week
Z-Score Volume with CVD Clustering Script Title:
Z-Score Volume with CVD Clustering & NY VWAP
📘 Description:
This indicator combines statistical volume analysis with order flow confirmation to detect high-probability trade zones and volume-based divergences.
📌 Components:
Z-Score of Volume: Identifies statistically significant volume surges or drops relative to a moving average baseline.
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD): Gauges net buying vs. selling pressure using high-frequency bid/ask delta.
K-Means Clustering: Applies clustering logic to classify each bar into:
Cluster 2 – Strong Bullish: Z-Score and CVD both strong
Cluster 1 – Divergence / Bull Trap: Z-Score high, but weak CVD
Cluster 0 – Neutral / Noise: No clear alignment
Anchored VWAP (NY Session Open): Confirms market structure and institutional trend bias from 9:30 AM ET forward.
🎯 Suggested Applications:
✅ 1. Trend Continuation Entries (Add-ons):
Look to add to positions when:
Cluster 2 signal occurs
Price is above the NY session VWAP
Price structure has broken out of prior day high/low or range
⚠️ 2. Divergence Detection (Fade Traps):
Cluster 1 signals a bearish divergence (e.g., high volume but weak CVD).
Especially useful when price is failing to stay above VWAP.
Useful for early exits or reversal setups.
📊 3. Volume Profile Confirmation:
Combine with fixed or session-based volume profile tools.
Use Z-Score clusters to confirm volume spikes into low-volume nodes (LVNs) or during imbalance transitions.
📍 4. VWAP Structure Confirmation:
Anchored VWAP acts as a dynamic reference point.
Helps confirm acceptance vs. rejection zones at key institutional levels.
📈 Visuals & Alerts:
Color-coded volume bars show intensity of Z-Score & CVD confluence
CVD Line plots real-time delta bias with green/red coloring
Cluster-based shape markers highlight key bars for actionable signals
Optional: Add alerts for Cluster 2 above VWAP or Cluster 1 below VWAP
⚙️ Customization Options:
Adjustable Z-Score length
Custom anchor timeframe for CVD (e.g., 1D or sessions)
Adjustable max lookback depth
Toggle VWAP inclusion
Extendable to include additional filters: RSI, structure break alerts, etc.
🔧 Ideal Use Cases:
NY session intraday traders (ES, NQ, CL, 6E, FX pairs)
Breakout traders wanting order flow confirmation
Mean reversion traders spotting fake moves
Volume-based scalpers looking for edge on short-term order imbalance
Pivot Channel LevelsPivot Channel Levels
Indicator Description
“Pivot Channel Levels” is an advanced technical analysis tool that identifies key price pivots (highs and lows) and creates dynamic support and resistance levels based on the wicks of candles at these points (or bodies if wicks are minimal). The indicator analyzes the volume at the time of a pivot’s formation, displaying its value and percentage change relative to the volume’s simple moving average (SMA).
It does not generate buy/sell signals but provides a clear visualization of market structure, helping traders identify potential price reaction zones and assess the strength of market movements.
Why Are Wicks Important?
Candle wicks at price pivots indicate significant market reactions in key areas. Depending on the context, they may signal rejection, testing, or absorption of a support or resistance level. Long wicks often appear where large players are active, and the marked zones are frequently retested. The indicator allows for quick identification and observation of their impact on future price action.
Why Use It?
- Precise Support and Resistance Levels: The indicator draws price channels based on candle wicks at pivots (or bodies if wicks are absent), enabling better identification of zones where price may react.
- Volume Analysis: It shows how the volume at a pivot differs from the average, indicating potential activity by large players or key market moments.
- Visual Clarity: Colored lines, channel fills, and clear labels facilitate quick chart analysis, even on short timeframes.
- Flexibility: Adjustable pivot length, volume average, and label colors allow customization to various trading strategies.
How It Works
- Pivot Detection: Automatically identifies local highs and lows based on the “Pivot Length” parameter (default: 20 candles). This means a pivot appears on the chart with a 20-candle delay. Reducing this value allows faster pivot detection (after fewer candles), increasing their number but potentially generating more noise.
- Channel Creation: Draws support and resistance levels based on the wicks of candles at pivot points (or bodies if wicks are minimal) with a delay to confirm zones. A pivot channel is drawn until the next pivot is identified, but if not previously broken, it remains valid as active support or resistance.
- Volume Analysis: Displays the volume at the pivot’s formation and its percentage change relative to the volume’s SMA.
- Visualization: Pivot and channel levels are shown as lines with fills, and labels display volume and its deviation from the average.
Trading Applications
- Swing Trading: Use pivot levels and channels to identify price reversal points or consolidation zones.
- Scalping: Monitor price reactions to channels on short timeframes, especially with high volume.
- Faster Pivot Identification: Switch to a lower timeframe (e.g., from H1 to M15) to identify pivots more quickly, allowing earlier reactions to price changes.
- Market Context Analysis: High volume at pivots may indicate significant levels likely to be retested.
- Combining with Other Tools: The indicator pairs well with Fibonacci retracement, supply/demand zones, or oscillators like RSI.
Settings and Customization
- Pivot Length: Determines how many candles back and forward are analyzed to detect pivots (default: 20). A smaller value increases sensitivity, a larger one enhances stability.
- Volume Average: Length of the SMA for volume (default: 20). Adjust to better reflect market characteristics.
- Label Colors: Choose colors for bullish and bearish pivot labels to match your chart style.
Usage Examples
- Identifying Key Zones: If the price approaches a pivot level with high volume (e.g., +50% relative to SMA), it may signal strong support or resistance.
- Breakout Confirmation: A channel breakout with high volume can indicate trend continuation.
- Price Reaction Analysis: Long wicks at pivots with high volume may signal level rejection by large players.
Notes for Users
- The indicator performs best on highly liquid markets (e.g., Forex, indices, cryptocurrencies).
- On short timeframes (e.g., M1, M5), it may generate more noise—adjust “Pivot Length” to suit your needs.
- Consider combining with other indicators to confirm signals derived from pivot and volume analysis.

Absorption DetectorABSORPTION DETECTOR -
The Absorption Detector identifies institutional order flow by detecting "absorption" patterns where smart money quietly accumulates or distributes positions by absorbing retail order flow. This creates high-probability support and resistance zones for trading. This is an approximation only and does not read any footprint data.
WHAT IS ABSORPTION?
Absorption occurs when institutions take the opposite side of retail trades, creating specific candlestick patterns with high volume and significant wicks. The indicator identifies two main patterns:
SELLING ABSORPTION (P-Pattern): Red zones above candles where institutions sell into retail buying pressure, creating resistance levels. Look for high volume candles with large upper wicks that close in the lower half.
BUYING ABSORPTION (B-Pattern): Green zones below candles where institutions buy from retail selling pressure, creating support levels. Look for high volume candles with large lower wicks that close in the upper half.
KEY FEATURES
- Automatic detection of institutional absorption patterns
- Dynamic support and resistance zone creation
- Customizable styling for all visual elements
- Historic zone display for backtesting analysis
- Strength-based filtering to show only high-probability setups
- Real-time alerts for new absorption patterns
- Professional info panel with key statistics
- Multi-timeframe compatibility
MAIN SETTINGS
Volume Threshold (1.2): Minimum volume surge required compared to average. Higher values = fewer but stronger signals.
Minimum Volume (2500): Absolute volume floor to prevent signals during low-volume periods.
Min Wick Size (0.2): Minimum wick size as ATR multiple. Ensures significant rejection occurred.
Minimum Strength (1.5): Combined volume and wick strength filter. Higher values = higher quality signals.
Show Historic Zones (OFF): Enable to see all historical zones for backtesting. Disable for better performance.
Zone Extension (20): How many bars to project zones forward for anticipating future reactions.
TRADING APPROACH
ZONE REACTION STRATEGY: Wait for price to approach absorption zones and trade the bounce or rejection. Use the zones as dynamic support and resistance levels.
BREAKOUT STRATEGY: Trade decisive breaks of strong absorption zones with proper risk management. Failed zones often lead to strong moves.
CONFLUENCE TRADING: Combine absorption zones with other technical analysis for highest probability setups. Look for alignment with trend lines, Fibonacci levels, and key support/resistance.
RISK MANAGEMENT: Always use stop losses beyond the absorption zones. Target minimum 1:2 risk-reward ratios. Position size appropriately based on zone strength.
OPTIMIZATION GUIDE
For Conservative Trading (fewer, higher quality signals):
- Volume Threshold: 1.5
- Minimum Strength: 2.0
- Min Wick Size: 0.3
For Aggressive Trading (more signals, requires careful filtering):
- Volume Threshold: 1.1
- Minimum Strength: 1.0
- Min Wick Size: 0.15
BEST PRACTICES
Markets: Works best on liquid instruments with good volume - major forex pairs, popular stocks, liquid futures, and established cryptocurrencies.
Timeframes: Effective on all timeframes from 1-minute scalping to daily swing trading. Adjust settings based on your timeframe and trading style.
Confirmation: Never trade absorption signals in isolation. Always combine with trend analysis, market structure, and proper risk management.
Session Timing: Be aware of market sessions and avoid trading during low liquidity periods or major news events.
Backtesting: Use the historic zones feature to validate performance on your chosen market and timeframe before live trading.
CUSTOMIZATION
The indicator offers complete visual customization including zone colors, border styles, label appearances, and info panel positioning. All colors can be adapted to match your chart theme and personal preferences.
Alert system provides both basic and custom message alerts for real-time notifications of new absorption patterns.
PERFORMANCE NOTES
Default settings are optimized for most markets and timeframes. For best performance on older charts, keep "Show Historic Zones" disabled unless specifically backtesting.
The indicator maintains excellent performance even with extensive historical analysis enabled, handling up to 500 zones and 100 labels for comprehensive backtesting.

Multi-Timeframe PivotDescription:
This script provides an advanced tool for multi-timeframe pivot point
analysis. It identifies swing points based on a candle's relationship to
its neighbors. The default strength settings of 1 align with the Inner
Circle Trader (ICT) concept of market structure.
The ICT concept defines a swing point based on a simple 3-candle pattern:
- A swing high is a candle where the candles to the immediate left and right
both have lower highs.
- A swing low is a candle where the candles to the immediate left and right
both have higher lows.
A key feature is its ability to accurately calculate and translate pivot
points from up to five higher timeframes (HTFs) and display them
precisely on a lower timeframe (LTF) chart.
NOTE: This indicator is designed to show HTF data on an LTF chart.
If you select a timeframe in the settings that is lower than your
current chart's timeframe, it will show pivots for the chart's
timeframe instead.
Core Features:
- Up to five independent higher timeframes.
- Per-timeframe customization for pivot strength (left/right bars) and color.
- Optional "Watchlines" that project the price of each pivot forward,
complete with a text label identifying the timeframe.
- An optional "Alignment Model" that colors the background when price is
aligned across all active timeframes (requires at least 2 TFs to be enabled).
Default State:
For a clean initial application, the Watchlines and Alignment Model features
are disabled by default but can be enabled in the settings.
Tsallis Entropy Market RiskTsallis Entropy Market Risk Indicator
What Is It?
The Tsallis Entropy Market Risk Indicator is a market analysis tool that measures the degree of randomness or disorder in price movements. Unlike traditional technical indicators that focus on price patterns or momentum, this indicator takes a statistical physics approach to market analysis.
Scientific Foundation
The indicator is based on Tsallis entropy, a generalization of traditional Shannon entropy developed by physicist Constantino Tsallis. The Tsallis entropy is particularly effective at analyzing complex systems with long-range correlations and memory effects—precisely the characteristics found in crypto and stock markets.
The indicator also borrows from Log-Periodic Power Law (LPPL).
Core Concepts
1. Entropy Deficit
The primary measurement is the "entropy deficit," which represents how far the market is from a state of maximum randomness:
Low Entropy Deficit (0-0.3): The market exhibits random, uncorrelated price movements typical of efficient markets
Medium Entropy Deficit (0.3-0.5): Some patterns emerging, moderate deviation from randomness
High Entropy Deficit (0.5-0.7): Strong correlation patterns, potentially indicating herding behavior
Extreme Entropy Deficit (0.7-1.0): Highly ordered price movements, often seen before significant market events
2. Multi-Scale Analysis
The indicator calculates entropy across different timeframes:
Short-term Entropy (blue line): Captures recent market behavior (20-day window)
Long-term Entropy (green line): Captures structural market behavior (120-day window)
Main Entropy (purple line): Primary measurement (60-day window)
3. Scale Ratio
This measures the relationship between long-term and short-term entropy. A healthy market typically has a scale ratio above 0.85. When this ratio drops below 0.85, it suggests abnormal relationships between timeframes that often precede market dislocations.
How It Works
Data Collection: The indicator samples price returns over specific lookback periods
Probability Distribution Estimation: It creates a histogram of these returns to estimate their probability distribution
Entropy Calculation: Using the Tsallis q-parameter (typically 1.5), it calculates how far this distribution is from maximum entropy
Normalization: Results are normalized against theoretical maximum entropy to create the entropy deficit measure
Risk Assessment: Multiple factors are combined to generate a composite risk score and classification
Market Interpretation
Low Risk Environments (Risk Score < 25)
Market is functioning efficiently with reasonable randomness
Price discovery is likely effective
Normal trading and investment approaches appropriate
Medium Risk Environments (Risk Score 25-50)
Increasing correlation in price movements
Beginning of trend formation or momentum
Time to monitor positions more closely
High Risk Environments (Risk Score 50-75)
Strong herding behavior present
Market potentially becoming one-sided
Consider reducing position sizes or implementing hedges
Extreme Risk Environments (Risk Score > 75)
Highly ordered market behavior
Significant imbalance between buyers and sellers
Heightened probability of sharp reversals or corrections
Practical Application Examples
Market Tops: Often characterized by gradually increasing entropy deficit as momentum builds, followed by extreme readings near the actual top
Market Bottoms: Can show high entropy deficit during capitulation, followed by normalization
Range-Bound Markets: Typically display low and stable entropy deficit measurements
Trending Markets: Often show moderate entropy deficit that remains relatively consistent
Advantages Over Traditional Indicators
Forward-Looking: Identifies changing market structure before price action confirms it
Statistical Foundation: Based on robust mathematical principles rather than empirical patterns
Adaptability: Functions across different market regimes and asset classes
Noise Filtering: Focuses on meaningful structural changes rather than price fluctuations
Limitations
Not a Timing Tool: Signals market risk conditions, not precise entry/exit points
Parameter Sensitivity: Results can vary based on the chosen parameters
Historical Context: Requires some historical perspective to interpret effectively
Complementary Tool: Works best alongside other analysis methods

Smart Money Trap SignalSmart Money Trap Signal – Indicator Description
The Smart Money Trap Signal is a precision-based trading tool designed to identify areas where institutional traders (smart money) are likely to trap retail traders through false breakouts and liquidity grabs. These traps often occur near key highs and lows, where retail traders are lured into trades just before price reverses sharply.
🔍 Key Features:
Liquidity Sweep Detection
Identifies false breakouts of recent swing highs or lows, signaling potential liquidity grabs by large players.
Reversal Confirmation
Confirms the trap using a classic price action reversal pattern (bullish or bearish engulfing), helping filter out weak signals.
Optional Volume Spike Filter
Allows additional confirmation based on a significant spike in volume, indicating potential institutional involvement.
Buy and Sell Trap Signals
🔴 Smart Money Short (SMT↓) – Triggered when price sweeps a high and reverses down.
🟢 Smart Money Long (SMT↑) – Triggered when price sweeps a low and reverses up.
Alerts & Labels
Real-time alert conditions and on-chart labels to help you catch setups without missing opportunities.
📈 How to Use:
Apply on Higher Timeframes (1H, 4H, Daily) for cleaner signals.
Look for SMT signals at key supply/demand zones or market structure points.
Combine with your existing trading strategy, such as order blocks or break of structure (BoS), for higher accuracy.
Use volume filter only if you're analyzing markets where volume data is reliable.
⚠️ Disclaimer:
This tool is meant to assist with trade identification, not trade execution. Always use proper risk management and validate setups with your trading plan.
Boomerang Trading Indicator# Boomerang News Trading Indicator
## Overview

Simple Multi-Timeframe Trends with RSI (Realtime)Simple Multi-Timeframe Trends with RSI Realtime Updates
Overview
The Simple Multi-Timeframe Trends with RSI Realtime Updates indicator is a comprehensive dashboard designed to give you an at-a-glance understanding of market trends across nine key timeframes, from one minute (M1) to one month (M).
It moves beyond simple moving average crossovers by calculating a sophisticated Trend Score for each timeframe. This score is then intelligently combined into a single, weighted Confluence Signal , which adapts to your personal trading style. With integrated RSI and divergence detection, SMTT provides a powerful, all-in-one tool to confirm your trade ideas and stay on the right side of the market.
Key Features
Automatic Trading Presets: The most powerful feature of the script. Simply select your trading style, and the indicator will automatically adjust all internal parameters for you:
Intraday: Uses shorter moving averages and higher sensitivity, focusing on lower timeframe alignment for quick moves.
Swing Trading: A balanced preset using medium-term moving averages, ideal for capturing trends that last several days or weeks.
Investment: Uses long-term moving averages and lower sensitivity, prioritizing the major trends on high timeframes.
Advanced Trend Scoring: The trend for each timeframe isn't just "up" or "down". The score is calculated based on a combination of:
Price vs. Moving Average: Is the price above or below the MA?
MA Slope: Is the trend accelerating or decelerating? A steep slope indicates a strong trend.
Price Momentum: How quickly has the price moved recently?
Volatility Adjustment: The score's quality is adjusted based on current market volatility (using ATR) to filter out choppy conditions.
Weighted Confluence Score: The script synthesizes the trend scores from all nine timeframes into a single, actionable signal. The weights are dynamically adjusted based on your selected Trading Style , ensuring the most relevant timeframes have the most impact on the final result.
Integrated RSI & Divergence: Each timeframe includes a smoothed RSI value to help you spot overbought/oversold conditions. It also flags potential bullish (price lower, RSI higher) and bearish (price higher, RSI lower) divergences, which can be early warnings of a trend reversal.
Clean & Customizable Dashboard: The entire analysis is presented in a clean, easy-to-read table on your chart. You can choose its position and optionally display the raw numerical scores for a deeper analysis.
How to Use It
1. Add to Chart: Apply the "Simple Multi-Timeframe Trends" indicator to your chart.
2. Select Your Style: This is the most important step. Go to the indicator settings and choose the Trading Style that best fits your strategy (Intraday, Swing Trading, or Investment). All calculations will instantly adapt.
3. Analyze the Dashboard:
Look at the Trend row to see the direction and strength of the trend on individual timeframes. Strong alignment (e.g., all green or all red) indicates a powerful, market-wide move.
Check the RSI row. Is the trend overextended (RSI > 60) or is there room to run? Look for the fuchsia color, which signals a divergence and warrants caution.
Focus on the Signal row. This is your summary. A "STRONG SIGNAL" with high alignment suggests a high-probability setup. A "NEUTRAL" or "Weak" signal suggests waiting for a better opportunity.
4. Confirm Your Trades: Use the SMTT dashboard as a confirmation tool. For example, if you are looking for a long entry, wait for the dashboard to show a "BULLISH" or "STRONG SIGNAL" to confirm that the broader market structure supports your trade.

Ultimate Regression Channel v5.0 [WhiteStone_Ibrahim]Ultimate Regression Channel v5.0: Comprehensive User Guide
This indicator is designed to visualize the current trend, potential support/resistance levels, and market volatility through a statistical analysis of price action. At its core, it plots a regression line (a trend line) based on prices over a specific period and adds channels based on standard deviation around this line.
1. Core Features and Settings
Length Mode:
Numerical (Manual): You define the number of bars to be used for the regression channel calculation. You can use lower values (e.g., 50-100) for short-term analysis and higher values (e.g., 200-300) to identify long-term trends.
Automatic (Based on Market Structure): This mode automatically draws the channel starting from the highest high or lowest low that has formed within the Auto Scan Period. This allows the indicator to adapt itself to significant market turning points (swing points), which is highly useful.
Regression Model:
Linear: Calculates the trend as a straight line. It generally works well in stable, short-to-medium-term trends.
Logarithmic: Calculates the trend as a curved line. It more accurately reflects price action, especially on long-term charts or for assets that experience exponential growth/decline (like cryptocurrencies or growth stocks).
Channel Widths:
These settings determine how far from the central trend line (in terms of standard deviations) the channels will be drawn.
The 0 (Inner), 1 (Middle), and 2 (Outer) channels represent the "normal" range of price movement and the "extreme" zones. Statistically, about 95% of all price action occurs within the outer channels (2nd standard deviation).
2. Visual Extras and Their Interpretation
Breakout Style:
This feature alerts you when the price closes above the uppermost channel (Channel 2) with a green arrow/background or below the lowermost channel with a red arrow/background.
This is a very important signal. A breakout can signify that the current trend is strengthening and likely to continue (a breakout/trend-following strategy) or that the market has become overextended and may be due for a reversal (an exhaustion/top-bottom signal). It is critical to confirm this signal with other indicators (e.g., RSI, Volume).
Info Label:
This provides an at-a-glance summary of the channel on the right side of the chart:
Trend Status: Identifies the trend as "Uptrend," "Downtrend," or "Sideways" based on the slope of the centerline. The Horizontal Threshold setting allows you to filter out noise by treating very small slopes as "Sideways."
Regression Model and Length: Shows your current settings.
Trend Slope: A numerical value representing how steep or weak the trend is.
Channel Width: Shows the price difference between the outermost channels. This is a measure of current volatility. A widening channel indicates increasing volatility, while a narrowing one indicates decreasing volatility.
3. What Users Should Pay Attention To & Best Practices
Define Your Strategy: Mean Reversion or Breakout?
Mean Reversion: If the market is in a ranging or gently trending phase, the price will tend to revert to the centerline after hitting the outer channels (overbought/oversold zones). In this case, the outer channels can be considered opportunities to sell (upper channel) or buy (lower channel).
Breakout: If a strong trend is in place, a price close beyond an outer channel can be a sign that the trend is accelerating. In this scenario, one might consider taking a position in the direction of the breakout. Correctly analyzing the current market state (ranging vs. trending) is key to deciding which strategy to employ.
Don't Use It in Isolation: No indicator is a holy grail. Use the Regression Channel in conjunction with other tools. Confirm signals with RSI divergences for overbought/oversold conditions, Moving Averages for the overall trend direction, or Volume indicators to confirm the strength of a breakout.
Choose the Right Model: On shorter-term charts (e.g., 1-hour, 4-hour), the Linear model is often sufficient. However, on long-term charts like the daily, weekly, or monthly, the Logarithmic model will provide much more accurate results, especially for assets with parabolic movements.
The Power of Automatic Mode: The Automatic length mode is often the most practical choice because it finds the most logical starting point for you. It saves you the trouble of adjusting settings, especially when analyzing different assets or timeframes.
Use the Alerts: If you don't want to miss the moment the price touches a key channel line, set up an alert from the Alert Settings section for your desired line (e.g., only the "Outer Channels"). This helps you catch opportunities even when you are not in front of the screen.
Money NoodleMoney Noodle Indicator - How It Works
The Money Noodle indicator is a trend-following and support/resistance tool that combines multiple exponential moving averages (EMAs) with dynamic volatility-based bands to create a comprehensive trading system.
Core Components
1. Triple EMA System ("The Noodles")
Fast EMA (12): Most responsive to price changes, shows short-term momentum
Medium EMA (21): Intermediate trend direction
Slow EMA (35): Main trend line that acts as the central reference point
The "noodle" effect comes from how these three EMAs weave around each other and the price action, creating curved, flowing lines that resemble noodles.
2. Dynamic Volatility Bands
Upper Band: Main EMA + (ATR × Band Multiplier)
Lower Band: Main EMA - (ATR × Band Multiplier)
Uses a 20-period ATR (Average True Range) to measure market volatility
Band width automatically adjusts - wider during volatile periods, tighter during consolidation
How It Functions
Trend Identification:
When all three EMAs are aligned (fast > medium > slow), it indicates a strong uptrend
When EMAs are inverted (fast < medium < slow), it signals a downtrend
EMA crossovers provide early trend change signals
Support & Resistance:
The bands act as dynamic support and resistance levels
Price tends to bounce off the bands during trending markets
Band breaks often signal strong momentum moves or trend changes
Volatility Assessment:
Band width indicates market volatility - wider bands = higher volatility
ATR-based calculation makes the bands adaptive to current market conditions
The 0.0125 multiplier provides optimal sensitivity for most timeframes
Trading Applications
Entry Signals:
Buy when price bounces off the lower band with EMA alignment
Sell when price bounces off the upper band against the trend
Breakout trades when price decisively breaks through bands
Trend Following:
Use the main EMA (35) as your trend filter
Trade in the direction of EMA alignment
The "noodles" help identify trend strength - tighter = stronger trend
Risk Management:
Bands provide natural stop-loss levels
Band width helps size positions (wider bands = smaller size due to higher volatility)
The indicator works best on daily timeframes and provides a visual, intuitive way to read market structure, trend direction, and volatility all in one tool.

Zigzag Simple [SCL]🟩 OVERVIEW
Draws zigzag lines from pivot Highs to pivot Lows. You can choose between three different ways of calculating pivots:
• True Highs and Lows
• Williams pivots
• Oscillator pivots
🟩 HOW TO USE
This indicator can be used to understand market structure, which is arguably the primary thing you need to be aware of when trading. The zigzag by itself does not display a market structure bias, nor any information about prices of pivots, HH and HL labels, or anything like that. Nevertheless, a simple zigzag is perhaps the easiest and most intuitive way to understand what price is doing.
Choose a pivot style that you like, customise the colours and line style, and enjoy!
🟩 PIVOT TYPES EXPLAINED
True Highs and Lows
This is not an invention of mine (all credit to my humble mentor), but I haven't seen anyone else code them up. A true High is a close below the low of the candle with the highest high. A true Low is a close above the high of a candle with the lowest low. These are solid, price action-based pivots that can sometimes confirm quickly.
Williams pivots
This is how most people calculate pivots. They're simply the highest high for x bars back and x bars forwards. They're the vanilla of pivots IMO: serviceable but not very interesting. They're very convenient to code because there are built-in Pine functions for them: ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow . They confirm a predictable number of bars after they happen, which is great for coding but also makes the trader wait for confirmation.
Oscillator pivots
This is a completely different concept, which uses momentum in order to define pivots. For example, when you get a rise in momentum and momentum then drops a configurable amount, it confirms a pivot high, and vice versa for a pivot low. I don't know if anyone else does it –- although some indicators do mark pivots in momentum itself, and plenty do divergences, I wasn't able to find one that specifically marked *pivots in price* because of pivots in momentum 🤷♂️
Anyway, while this approach needs a whole investigation on its own, here we simply plot some pivots in a smoothed RSI. This indicator doesn't plot the actual momentum values -- for a more visual understanding of how this works, refer to the examples in the OscillatorPivots library.
🟩 UNIQUE ADVANTAGES
In contrast to other zigzag indicators available, this one lets you choose between the standard and some more unique methods of generating the zigzags. Additionally, because it's based on libraries, it is relatively easy for programmers to use as a basis for experimentation.
🟩 GEEK STUFF
Although there is considerable practical use for pivot-based zigzags in trading, this script is primarily a demonstration in coding -- specifically the power of libraries!
Most of the script consists of setup, especially defining inputs. The final section sacrifices some readability for conciseness, simply to emphasise how little code you need when the heavy lifting is done by libraries .
The actual calculations and drawing are achieved in just 8 lines.
The equivalent code in the libraries is ~250 lines long.
All libraries used are my own, public and open-source:
• MarketStructure
• DrawZigZag
• OscillatorPivots
EMA Pullback System 1:5 RRR [SL]EMA Trend Pullback System (1:5 RRR)
Summary:
This indicator is designed to identify high-probability pullback opportunities along the main trend, providing trade signals that target a high 1:5 Risk/Reward Ratio. It is a trend-following strategy built for patient traders who wait for optimal setups.
Strategy Logic:
The system is based on three Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs): 21, 50, and 200.
BUY Signal:
Trend (Uptrend): The price must be above the 200 EMA.
Pullback: The price must pull back into the "Dynamic Support Zone" between the 21 EMA and 50 EMA.
Confirmation: A strong Bullish Confirmation Candle (e.g., Bullish Engulfing) must form within this zone.
SELL Signal:
Trend (Downtrend): The price must be below the 200 EMA.
Pullback: The price must rally back into the "Dynamic Resistance Zone" between the 21 EMA and 50 EMA.
Confirmation: A strong Bearish Confirmation Candle (e.g., Bearish Engulfing) must form within this zone.
Key Features:
Clearly plots the 21, 50, and 200 EMAs on the chart.
Displays BUY and SELL labels when the rules are met.
Automatically calculates and plots Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) levels for each signal.
The Risk/Reward Ratio for the Take Profit level is customizable in the settings (Default: 1:5).
How to Use:
Best suited for higher timeframes like H1 and H4.
It is crucial to wait for the signal candle to close before considering an entry.
While this is an automated tool, for best results, combine its signals with your own analysis of Price Action and Market Structure.
Disclaimer:
This is an educational tool and not financial advice. Trading involves substantial risk. Always use proper risk management. It is essential to backtest any strategy before deploying it with real capital.
3 Bar Reversal3 Bar Reversal
This pattern is described in John Carter's "Mastering the Trade"
The 3 Bar Reversal indicator is a simple but effective price action tool designed to highlight potential short-term reversals in market direction. It monitors consecutive bar behavior and identifies turning points based on a three-bar pattern. This tool can assist traders in spotting trend exhaustion or early signs of a reversal, particularly in scalping or short-term trading strategies.
How It Works
This indicator analyzes the relationship between consecutive bar closes:
It counts how many bars have passed since the price closed higher than the previous close (barssince(close >= close )) — referred to as an "up streak".
It also counts how many bars have passed since the price closed lower than the previous close (barssince(close <= close )) — known as a "down streak".
A reversal condition is met when:
There have been exactly 3 bars in a row moving in one direction (up or down), and
The 4th bar closes in the opposite direction.
When this condition is detected, the script performs two actions:
Plots a triangle on the chart to signal the potential reversal:
A green triangle below the bar for a possible long (buy) opportunity.
A red triangle above the bar for a possible short (sell) opportunity.
Triggers an alert condition so users can set notifications for when a reversal is detected.
Interpretation
Long Signal: The market has printed 3 consecutive lower closes, followed by a higher close — suggesting bullish momentum may be emerging.
Short Signal: The market has printed 3 consecutive higher closes, followed by a lower close — indicating possible bearish momentum.
These patterns are common in market retracements and can act as confirmation signals when used with other indicators such as RSI, MACD, support/resistance, or volume analysis.
Usage Examples
Scalping: Use the reversal signal to quickly enter short-term trades after a short-term exhaustion move.
Swing Trading: Combine this with trend indicators (e.g., moving averages) to time pullbacks within larger trends.
Confirmation Tool: Use this indicator alongside candlestick patterns or support/resistance zones to validate entry or exit points.
Alert Setup: Enable alerts based on the built-in alertcondition to receive instant notifications for potential trade setups.
Limitations
The 3-bar reversal logic does not guarantee a trend change; it signals potential reversals, which may need confirmation.
Best used in conjunction with broader context such as trend direction, market structure, or other technical indicators.

Support and Resistance Logistic Regression | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Logistic Regression Support / Resistance indicator! This tool leverages advanced statistical modeling "Logistic Regressions" to identify and project key price levels where the market is likely to find support or resistance. For more information about the process, please check the "HOW DOES IT WORK ?" section.
Logistic Regression Support / Resistance Features :
Intelligent S/R Identification : The indicator uses a logistic regression model to intelligently identify and plot significant support and resistance levels.
Predictive Probability : Each identified level comes with a calculated probability, indicating how likely it is to act as a true support or resistance based on historical data.
Retest & Break Labels : The indicator clearly marks on your chart when a detected support or resistance level is retested (price touches and respects the level) or broken (price decisively crosses through the level).
Alerts : Real-time alerts for support retests, resistance retests, support breaks, and resistance breaks.
Customizable : You can change support & resistance line style, width and colors.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
What makes this indicator truly unique is its application of logistic regression to the concept of support and resistance. Instead of merely identifying historical highs and lows, our indicator uses a statistical model to predict the future efficacy of these levels. It analyzes underlying market conditions (like RSI and body size at pivot formation) to assign a probability to each potential S/R zone. This predictive insight, combined with dynamic, real-time labeling of retests and breaks, provides a more robust and adaptive understanding of market structure than traditional, purely historical methods.
📌HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The Logistic Regression Support / Resistance indicator operates in several key steps:
First, it identifies significant pivot highs and lows on the chart based on a user-defined "Pivot Length." These pivots are potential areas of support or resistance.
For each detected pivot, the indicator extracts relevant market data at that specific point, including the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and the Body Size (the absolute difference between the open and close price of the candle). These serve as input features for the model.
The core of the indicator lies in its logistic regression model. This model is continuously trained on past pivot data and their subsequent behavior (i.e., whether they were "respected" as support/resistance multiple times). It learns the relationship between the extracted features (RSI, Body Size) and the likelihood of a pivot becoming a significant S/R level.
When a new pivot is identified, the model uses its learned insights to calculate a prediction value—a probability (from 0 to 1) that this specific pivot will act as a strong support or resistance.
If the calculated probability exceeds a user-defined "Probability Threshold," the pivot is designated a "Regression Pivot" and drawn on the chart as a support or resistance line. The indicator then actively tracks how price interacts with these levels, displaying "R" labels for retests when the price bounces off the level and "B" labels for breaks when the price closes beyond it.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Pivot Length: This setting defines the number of bars used to determine a significant high or low for pivot detection.
Target Respects: This input specifies how many times a level must be "respected" by price action for it to be considered a strong support or resistance level by the underlying model.
Probability Threshold: This is the minimum probability output from the logistic regression model for a detected pivot to be considered a valid support or resistance level and be plotted on the chart.
2. Style
Show Prediction Labels: Enable or disable labels that display the calculated probability of a newly identified regression S/R level.
Show Retests: Toggle the visibility of "R" labels on the chart, which mark instances where price has retested a support or resistance level.
Show Breaks: Toggle the visibility of "B" labels on the chart, which mark instances where price has broken through a support or resistance level.
Dynamic Range Filter with Trend Candlesticks (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Dynamic Range Filter with Trend Candlesticks (Zeiierman) is a volatility-responsive trend engine that adapts in real-time to market structure, offering a clean and intelligent visualization of directional bias. It blends dynamic range calculation with customizable smoothing techniques and layered trend confirmation logic, making it ideal for traders who rely on clear trend direction, structural range analysis, and momentum-based candlestick signals.
By measuring scaled volatility over configurable lengths and applying advanced moving average techniques, this indicator filters out market noise while preserving true directional intent. Complementing this, a dual-trend system (range-based and candle-based) enhances clarity and responsiveness, particularly during shifting market conditions.
█ How It Works
⚪ Scaled Volatility Band Calculation
At the core lies a volatility engine that constructs adaptive range bands around price using smoothed high/low calculations. The bands are dynamically adjusted using:
High/Low Smoothing – Applies a moving average to the raw high and low data before calculating the range.
Scaled Range Volatility – A 2.618 multiplier scales the distance between smoothed highs and lows, forming a responsive volatility envelope.
Band Multiplier – Controls how wide the upper/lower range bands extend from the mean.
This filtering process minimizes false signals and highlights only structurally meaningful moves.
⚪ Multi-Type Smoothing Engine
Users can choose from a wide array of smoothing algorithms for trend construction, including:
HMA (default), SMA, EMA, RMA
KAMA – Adapts to market volatility using efficiency ratios.
VIDYA – Momentum-sensitive smoothing using CMO logic.
FRAMA – Dynamically adjusts to fractal dimension in price.
Super Smoother – Ideal for eliminating aliasing in range signals.
This provides the trader with fine-tuned control over reactivity vs. smoothness.
⚪ Trend Detection (Dual Engine)
The indicator includes two independent trend tracking systems:
Main Trend Filter – Based on adaptive volatility band shifts.
Candle Trend Filter – A second-tier confirmation using smoothed candle data, ideal for directional candles and confirmation entries.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Confirmation
Use the Trend Line and colored candlesticks for high-probability entries in the trend direction. The more trend layers that align, the higher the confidence.
⚪ Reversal Zones
When the price reaches the outer bands or fails to break them, look for candle color shifts or a crossover in the range to anticipate possible reversals or consolidations.
█ Settings
Scaled Volatility Length – Controls the lookback used to stabilize the base volatility band.
MA Type & Length – Choose and fine-tune the smoothing method (HMA, EMA, KAMA, etc.)
High/Low Smoother – Pre-smoothing for structural high/low banding.
Band Multiplier – Adjusts the width of the dynamic bands.
Trend Length (Candles) – Length used for candle-based trend confirmation.
