Luxy Super-Duper SuperTrend Predictor Engine and Buy/Sell signalA professional trend-following grading system that analyzes historical trend patterns to provide statistical duration estimates using advanced similarity matching and k-nearest neighbors analysis. Combines adaptive Supertrend with intelligent duration statistics, multi-timeframe confluence, volume confirmation, and quality scoring to identify high-probability setups with data-driven target ranges across all timeframes. Note: All duration estimates are statistical calculations based on historical data, not guarantees of future performance. WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT Unlike traditional SuperTrend indicators that only tell you trend direction, this system answers the critical question: "What is the typical duration for trends like this?" The Statistical Analysis Engine: • Analyzes your chart's last 15+ completed SuperTrend trends (bullish and bearish separately) • Uses k-nearest neighbors similarity matching to find historically similar setups • Calculates statistical duration estimates based on current market conditions • Learns from estimation errors and adapts over time (Advanced mode) • Displays visual duration analysis box showing median, average, and range estimates • Tracks Statistical accuracy with backtest statistics Complete Trading System: • Statistical trend duration analysis with three intelligence levels • Adaptive Supertrend with dynamic ATR-based bands • Multi-timeframe confluence analysis (6 timeframes: 5M to 1W) • Volume confirmation with spike detection and momentum tracking • Quality scoring system (0-70 points) rating each setup • One-click preset optimization for all trading styles • Anti-repaint guarantee on all signals and duration estimates METHODOLOGY CREDITS This indicator's approach is inspired by proven trading methodologies from respected market educators: • Mark Minervini - Volatility Contraction Pattern (VCP) and pullback entry techniques • William O'Neil - Volume confirmation principles and institutional buying patterns (CANSLIM methodology) • Dan Zanger - Volatility expansion entries and momentum breakout strategies Important: These are educational references only. This indicator does not guarantee any specific trading results. Always conduct your own analysis and risk management. KEY FEATURES 1. TREND DURATION ANALYSIS SYSTEM - The Core Innovation The statistical analysis engine is what sets this indicator apart from standard SuperTrend systems. It doesn't just identify trend changes - it provides statistical analysis of potential duration. How It Works: Step 1: Historical Tracking • Automatically records every completed SuperTrend trend (duration in bars) • Maintains separate databases for bullish trends and bearish trends • Stores up to 15 most recent trends of each type • Captures market conditions at each trend flip: volume ratio, ATR ratio, quality score, price distance from SuperTrend, proximity to support/resistance Step 2: Similarity Matching (k-Nearest Neighbors) • When new trend begins, system compares current conditions to ALL historical flips • Calculates similarity score based on: - Volume similarity (30% weight) - Is volume behaving similarly? - Volatility similarity (30% weight) - Is ATR/volatility similar? - Quality similarity (20% weight) - Is setup strength comparable? - Distance similarity (10% weight) - Is price distance from ST similar? - Support/Resistance proximity (10% weight) - Similar structural context? • Selects the 15 MOST SIMILAR historical trends (not just all trends) • This is like asking: "When conditions looked like this before, how long did trends last?" Step 3: Statistical Analysis • Calculates median duration (most common outcome) • Calculates average duration (mean of similar trends) • Determines realistic range (min to max of similar trends) • Applies exponential weighting (recent trends weighted more heavily) • Outputs confidence-weighted statistical estimate Step 4: Advanced Intelligence (Advanced Mode Only) The Advanced mode applies five sophisticated multipliers to refine estimates: A) Market Structure Multiplier (±30%): • Detects nearby support/resistance levels using pivot detection • If flip occurs NEAR a key level: Estimate adjusted -30% (expect bounce/rejection) • If flip occurs in open space: Estimate adjusted +30% (clear path for continuation) • Uses configurable lookback period and ATR-based proximity threshold B) Asset Type Multiplier (±40%): • Adjusts duration estimates based on asset volatility characteristics • Small Cap / Biotech: +40% (explosive, extended moves) • Tech Growth: +20% (momentum-driven, longer trends) • Blue Chip / Large Cap: 0% (baseline, steady trends) • Dividend / Value: -20% (slower, grinding trends) • Cyclical: Variable based on macro regime • Crypto / High Volatility: +30% (parabolic potential) C) Flip Strength Multiplier (±20%): • Analyzes the QUALITY of the trend flip itself • Strong flip (high volume + expanding ATR + quality score 60+): +20% • Weak flip (low volume + contracting ATR + quality score under 40): -20% • Logic: Historical data shows that powerful flips tend to be followed by longer trends D) Error Learning Multiplier (±15%): • Tracks Statistical accuracy over last 10 completed trends • Calculates error ratio: (estimated duration / Actual Duration) • If system consistently over-estimates: Apply -15% correction • If system consistently under-estimates: Apply +15% correction • Learns and adapts to current market regime E) Regime Detection Multiplier (±20%): • Analyzes last 3 trends of SAME TYPE (bull-to-bull or bear-to-bear) • Compares recent trend durations to historical average • If recent trends 20%+ longer than average: +20% adjustment (trending regime detected) • If recent trends 20%+ shorter than average: -20% adjustment (choppy regime detected) • Detects whether market is in trending or mean-reversion mode Three analysis modes: SIMPLE MODE - Basic Statistics • Uses raw median of similar trends only • No multipliers, no adjustments • Best for: Beginners, clean trending markets • Fastest calculations, minimal complexity STANDARD MODE - Full Statistical Analysis • Similarity matching with k-nearest neighbors • Exponential weighting of recent trends • Median, average, and range calculations • Best for: Most traders, general market conditions • Balance of accuracy and simplicity ADVANCED MODE - Statistics + Intelligence • Everything in Standard mode PLUS • All 5 advanced multipliers (structure, asset type, flip strength, learning, regime) • Highest Statistical accuracy in testing • Best for: Experienced traders, volatile/complex markets • Maximum intelligence, most adaptive Visual Duration Analysis Box: When a new trend begins (SuperTrend flip), a box appears on your chart showing: • Analysis Mode (Simple / Standard / Advanced) • Number of historical trends analyzed • Median expected duration (most likely outcome) • Average expected duration (mean of similar trends) • Range (minimum to maximum from similar trends) • Advanced multipliers breakdown (Advanced mode only) • Backtest accuracy statistics (if available) The box extends from the flip bar to the estimated endpoint based on historical data, giving you a visual target for trend duration. Box updates in real-time as trend progresses. Backtest & Accuracy Tracking: • System backtests its own duration estimates using historical data • Shows accuracy metrics: how well duration estimates matched actual durations • Tracks last 10 completed duration estimates separately • Displays statistics in dashboard and duration analysis boxes • Helps you understand statistical reliability on your specific symbol/timeframe Anti-Repaint Guarantee: • duration analysis boxes only appear AFTER bar close (barstate.isconfirmed) • Historical duration estimates never disappear or change • What you see in history is exactly what you would have seen real-time • No future data leakage, no lookahead bias 2. INTELLIGENT PRESET CONFIGURATIONS - One-Click Optimization Unlike indicators that require tedious parameter tweaking, this system includes professionally optimized presets for every trading style. Select your approach from the dropdown and ALL parameters auto-configure. "AUTO (DETECT FROM TF)" - RECOMMENDED The smartest option: automatically selects optimal settings based on your chart timeframe. • 1m-5m charts → Scalping preset (ATR: 7, Mult: 2.0) • 15m-1h charts → Day Trading preset (ATR: 10, Mult: 2.5) • 2h-4h-D charts → Swing Trading preset (ATR: 14, Mult: 3.0) • W-M charts → Position Trading preset (ATR: 21, Mult: 4.0) Benefits: • Zero configuration - works immediately • Always matched to your timeframe • Switch timeframe = automatic adjustment • Perfect for traders who use multiple timeframes "SCALPING (1-5M)" - Ultra-Fast Signals Optimized for: 1-5 minute charts, high-frequency trading, quick profits Target holding period: Minutes to 1-2 hours maximum Best markets: High-volume stocks, major crypto pairs, active futures Parameter Configuration: • Supertrend: ATR 7, Multiplier 2.0 (very sensitive) • Volume: MA 10, High 1.8x, Spike 3.0x (catches quick surges) • Volume Momentum: AUTO-DISABLED (too restrictive for fast scalping) • Quality minimum: 40 points (accepts more setups) • Duration Analysis: Uses last 15 trends with heavy recent weighting Trading Logic: Speed over precision. Short ATR period and low multiplier create highly responsive SuperTrend. Volume momentum filter disabled to avoid missing fast moves. Quality threshold relaxed to catch more opportunities in rapid market conditions. Signals per session: 5-15 typically Hold time: Minutes to couple hours Best for: Active traders with fast execution "DAY TRADING (15M-1H)" - Balanced Approach Optimized for: 15-minute to 1-hour charts, intraday moves, session-based trading Target holding period: 30 minutes to 8 hours (within trading day) Best markets: Large-cap stocks, major indices, established crypto Parameter Configuration: • Supertrend: ATR 10, Multiplier 2.5 (balanced) • Volume: MA 20, High 1.5x, Spike 2.5x (standard detection) • Volume Momentum: 5/20 periods (confirms intraday strength) • Quality minimum: 50 points (good setups preferred) • Duration Analysis: Balanced weighting of recent vs historical Trading Logic: The most balanced configuration. ATR 10 with multiplier 2.5 provides steady trend following that avoids noise while catching meaningful moves. Volume momentum confirms institutional participation without being overly restrictive. Signals per session: 2-5 typically Hold time: 30 minutes to full day Best for: Part-time and full-time active traders "SWING TRADING (4H-D)" - Trend Stability Optimized for: 4-hour to Daily charts, multi-day holds, trend continuation Target holding period: 2-15 days typically Best markets: Growth stocks, sector ETFs, trending crypto, commodity futures Parameter Configuration: • Supertrend: ATR 14, Multiplier 3.0 (stable) • Volume: MA 30, High 1.3x, Spike 2.2x (accumulation focus) • Volume Momentum: 10/30 periods (trend stability) • Quality minimum: 60 points (high-quality setups only) • Duration Analysis: Favors consistent historical patterns Trading Logic: Designed for substantial trend moves while filtering short-term noise. Higher ATR period and multiplier create stable SuperTrend that won't flip on minor corrections. Stricter quality requirements ensure only strongest setups generate signals. Signals per week: 2-5 typically Hold time: Days to couple weeks Best for: Part-time traders, swing style "POSITION TRADING (D-W)" - Long-Term Trends Optimized for: Daily to Weekly charts, major trend changes, portfolio allocation Target holding period: Weeks to months Best markets: Blue-chip stocks, major indices, established cryptocurrencies Parameter Configuration: • Supertrend: ATR 21, Multiplier 4.0 (very stable) • Volume: MA 50, High 1.2x, Spike 2.0x (long-term accumulation) • Volume Momentum: 20/50 periods (major trend confirmation) • Quality minimum: 70 points (excellent setups only) • Duration Analysis: Heavy emphasis on multi-year historical data Trading Logic: Conservative approach focusing on major trend changes. Extended ATR period and high multiplier create SuperTrend that only flips on significant reversals. Very strict quality filters ensure signals represent genuine long-term opportunities. Signals per month: 1-2 typically Hold time: Weeks to months Best for: Long-term investors, set-and-forget approach "CUSTOM" - Advanced Configuration Purpose: Complete manual control for experienced traders Use when: You understand the parameters and want specific optimization Best for: Testing new approaches, unusual market conditions, specific instruments Full control over: • All SuperTrend parameters • Volume thresholds and momentum periods • Quality scoring weights • analysis mode and multipliers • Advanced features tuning Preset Comparison Quick Reference: Chart Timeframe: Scalping (1M-5M) | Day Trading (15M-1H) | Swing (4H-D) | Position (D-W) Signals Frequency: Very High | High | Medium | Low Hold Duration: Minutes | Hours | Days | Weeks-Months Quality Threshold: 40 pts | 50 pts | 60 pts | 70 pts ATR Sensitivity: Highest | Medium | Lower | Lowest Time Investment: Highest | High | Medium | Lowest Experience Level: Expert | Advanced | Intermediate | Beginner+ 3. QUALITY SCORING SYSTEM (0-70 Points) Every signal is rated in real-time across three dimensions: Volume Confirmation (0-30 points): • Volume Spike (2.5x+ average): 30 points • High Volume (1.5x+ average): 20 points • Above Average (1.0x+ average): 10 points • Below Average: 0 points Volatility Assessment (0-30 points): • Expanding ATR (1.2x+ average): 30 points • Rising ATR (1.0-1.2x average): 15 points • Contracting/Stable ATR: 0 points Volume Momentum (0-10 points): • Strong Momentum (1.2x+ ratio): 10 points • Rising Momentum (1.0-1.2x ratio): 5 points • Weak/Neutral Momentum: 0 points Score Interpretation: 60-70 points - EXCELLENT: • All factors aligned • High conviction setup • Maximum position size (within risk limits) • Primary trading opportunities 45-59 points - STRONG: • Multiple confirmations present • Above-average setup quality • Standard position size • Good trading opportunities 30-44 points - GOOD: • Basic confirmations met • Acceptable setup quality • Reduced position size • Wait for additional confirmation or trade smaller Below 30 points - WEAK: • Minimal confirmations • Low probability setup • Consider passing • Only for aggressive traders in strong trends Only signals meeting your minimum quality threshold (configurable per preset) generate alerts and labels. 4. MULTI-TIMEFRAME CONFLUENCE ANALYSIS The system can simultaneously analyze trend alignment across 6 timeframes (optional feature): Timeframes analyzed: • 5-minute (scalping context) • 15-minute (intraday momentum) • 1-hour (day trading bias) • 4-hour (swing context) • Daily (primary trend) • Weekly (macro trend) Confluence Interpretation: • 5-6/6 aligned - Very strong multi-timeframe agreement (highest confidence) • 3-4/6 aligned - Moderate agreement (standard setup) • 1-2/6 aligned - Weak agreement (caution advised) Dashboard shows real-time alignment count with color-coding. Higher confluence typically correlates with longer, stronger trends. 5. VOLUME MOMENTUM FILTER - Institutional Money Flow Unlike traditional volume indicators that just measure size, Volume Momentum tracks the RATE OF CHANGE in volume: How it works: • Compares short-term volume average (fast period) to long-term average (slow period) • Ratio above 1.0 = Volume accelerating (money flowing IN) • Ratio above 1.2 = Strong acceleration (institutional participation likely) • Ratio below 0.8 = Volume decelerating (money flowing OUT) Why it matters: • Confirms trend with actual money flow, not just price • Leading indicator (volume often leads price) • Catches accumulation/distribution before breakouts • More intuitive than complex mathematical filters Integration with signals: • Optional filter - can be enabled/disabled per preset • When enabled: Only signals with rising volume momentum fire • AUTO-DISABLED in Scalping mode (too restrictive for fast trading) • Configurable fast/slow periods per trading style 6. ADAPTIVE SUPERTREND MULTIPLIER Traditional SuperTrend uses fixed ATR multiplier. This system dynamically adjusts the multiplier (0.8x to 1.2x base) based on: • Trend Strength: Price correlation over lookback period • Volume Weight: Current volume relative to average Benefits: • Tighter bands in calm markets (less premature exits) • Wider bands in volatile conditions (avoids whipsaws) • Better adaptation to biotech, small-cap, and crypto volatility • Optional - can be disabled for classic constant multiplier 7. VISUAL GRADIENT RIBBON 26-layer exponential gradient fill between price and SuperTrend line provides instant visual trend strength assessment: Color System: • Green shades - Bullish trend + volume confirmation (strongest) • Blue shades - Bullish trend, normal volume • Orange shades - Bearish trend + volume confirmation • Red shades - Bearish trend (weakest) Opacity varies based on: • Distance from SuperTrend (farther = more opaque) • Volume intensity (higher volume = stronger color) The ribbon provides at-a-glance trend strength without cluttering your chart. Can be toggled on/off. 8. INTELLIGENT ALERT SYSTEM Two-tier alert architecture for flexibility: Automatic Alerts: • Fire automatically on BUY and SELL signals • Include full context: quality score, volume state, volume momentum • One alert per bar close (alert.freq_once_per_bar_close) • Message format: "BUY: Supertrend bullish + Quality: 65/70 | Volume: HIGH | Vol Momentum: STRONG (1.35x)" Customizable Alert Conditions: • Appear in TradingView's "Create Alert" dialog • Three options: BUY Signal Only, SELL Signal Only, ANY Signal (BUY or SELL) • Use TradingView placeholders: {{ticker}}, {{interval}}, {{close}}, {{time}} • Fully customizable message templates All alerts use barstate.isconfirmed - Zero repaint guarantee. 9. ANTI-REPAINT ARCHITECTURE Every component guaranteed non-repainting: • Entry signals: Only appear after bar close • duration analysis boxes: Created only on confirmed SuperTrend flips • Informative labels: Wait for bar confirmation • Alerts: Fire once per closed bar • Multi-timeframe data: Uses lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off What you see in history is exactly what you would have seen in real-time. No disappearing signals, no changed duration estimates.

Trade Filtering: For higher win-rate (fewer trades, better quality): • Increase minimum quality score (try 60 for swing, 50 for day trading) • Enable volume momentum filter (ensure institutional participation) • Require higher MTF confluence (5-6/6 alignment) • Use Advanced analysis mode with appropriate asset type For more opportunities (more trades, lower quality threshold): • Decrease minimum quality score (40 for day trading, 35 for scalping) • Disable volume momentum filter • Lower MTF confluence requirement • Use Simple or Standard analysis mode SETTINGS OVERVIEW Quick Setup Section: • Trading Style Preset: Auto / Scalping / Day Trading / Swing / Position / Custom Dashboard & Display: • Show Dashboard (ON/OFF) • Dashboard Position (9 options: Top/Middle/Bottom + Left/Center/Right) • Text Size (Auto/Tiny/Small/Normal/Large/Huge) • Show Ribbon Fill (ON/OFF) • Show SuperTrend Line (ON/OFF) • Bullish Color (default: Green) • Bearish Color (default: Red) • Show Entry Labels - BUY/SELL signals (ON/OFF) • Show Info Labels - Volume events (ON/OFF) • Label Size (Auto/Tiny/Small/Normal/Large/Huge) Supertrend Configuration: • ATR Length (default varies by preset: 7-21) • ATR Multiplier Base (default varies by preset: 2.0-4.0) • Use Adaptive Multiplier (ON/OFF) - Dynamic 0.8x-1.2x adjustment • Smoothing Factor (0.0-0.5) - EMA smoothing applied to bands • Neutral Bars After Flip (0-10) - Hide ST immediately after flip Volume Momentum: • Enable Volume Momentum Filter (ON/OFF) • Fast Period (default varies by preset: 3-20) • Slow Period (default varies by preset: 10-50) Volume Analysis: • Volume MA Length (default varies by preset: 10-50) • High Volume Threshold (default: 1.5x) • Spike Threshold (default: 2.5x) • Low Volume Threshold (default: 0.7x) Quality Filters: • Minimum Quality Score (0-70, varies by preset) • Require Volume Confirmation (ON/OFF) Trend Duration Analysis: • Show Duration Analysis (ON/OFF) - Display duration analysis boxes • analysis mode - Simple / Standard / Advanced • Asset Type - 7 options (Small Cap, Biotech, Blue Chip, Tech Growth, Dividend, Cyclical, Crypto) • Use Exponential Weighting (ON/OFF) - Recent trends weighted more • Decay Factor (0.5-0.99) - How much more recent trends matter • Structure Lookback (3-30) - Pivot detection period for support/resistance • Proximity Threshold (xATR) - How close to level qualifies as "near" • Enable Error Learning (ON/OFF) - System learns from estimation errors • Memory Depth (3-20) - How many past errors to remember Box Visual Settings: • duration analysis box Border Color • duration analysis box Background Color • duration analysis box Text Color • duration analysis box Border Width • duration analysis box Transparency Multi-Timeframe (Optional Feature): • Enable MTF Confluence (ON/OFF) • Minimum Alignment Required (0-6) • Individual timeframe enable/disable toggles • Custom timeframe selection options All preset configurations override manual inputs except when "Custom" is selected. ADVANCED FEATURES 1. Scalpel Mode (Optional) Advanced pullback entry system that waits for healthy retracements within established trends before signaling entry: • Monitors price distance from SuperTrend levels • Requires pullback to configurable range (default: 30-50%) • Ensures trend remains intact before entry signal • Reduces whipsaw and false breakouts • Inspired by Mark Minervini's VCP pullback entries Best for: Swing traders and day traders seeking precision entries Scalpers: Consider disabling for faster entries 2. Error Learning System (Advanced analysis mode Only) The system learns from its own estimation errors: • Tracks last 10-20 completed duration estimates (configurable memory depth) • Calculates error ratio for each: estimated duration / Actual Duration • If system consistently over-estimates: Applies negative correction (-15%) • If system consistently under-estimates: Applies positive correction (+15%) • Adapts to current market regime automatically This self-correction mechanism improves accuracy over time as the system gathers more data on your specific symbol and timeframe. 3. Regime Detection (Advanced analysis mode Only) Automatically detects whether market is in trending or choppy regime: • Compares last 3 trends to historical average • Recent trends 20%+ longer → Trending regime (+20% to estimates) • Recent trends 20%+ shorter → Choppy regime (-20% to estimates) • Applied separately to bullish and bearish trends Helps duration estimates adapt to changing market conditions without manual intervention. 4. Exponential Weighting Option to weight recent trends more heavily than distant history: • Default decay factor: 0.9 • Recent trends get higher weight in statistical calculations • Older trends gradually decay in importance • Rationale: Recent market behavior more relevant than old data • Can be disabled for equal weighting 5. Backtest Statistics System backtests its own duration estimates using historical data: • Walks through past trends chronologically • Calculates what duration estimate WOULD have been at each flip • Compares to actual duration that occurred • Displays accuracy metrics in duration analysis boxes and dashboard • Helps assess statistical reliability on your specific chart Note: Backtest uses only data available AT THE TIME of each historical flip (no lookahead bias). TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS • Pine Script Version: v6 • Indicator Type: Overlay (draws on price chart) • Max Boxes: 500 (for duration analysis box storage) • Max Bars Back: 5000 (for comprehensive historical analysis) • Security Calls: 1 (for MTF if enabled - optimized) • Repainting: NO - All signals and duration estimates confirmed on bar close • Lookahead Bias: NO - All HTF data properly offset, all duration estimates use only historical data • Real-time Updates: YES - Dashboard and quality scores update live • Alert Capable: YES - Both automatic alerts and customizable alert conditions • Multi-Symbol: Works on stocks, crypto, forex, futures, indices Performance Optimization: • Conditional calculations (duration analysis can be disabled to reduce load) • Efficient array management (circular buffers for trend storage) • Streamlined gradient rendering (26 layers, can be toggled off) • Smart label cooldown system (prevents label spam) • Optimized similarity matching (analyzes only relevant trends) Data Requirements: • Minimum 50-100 bars for initial duration analysis (builds historical database) • Optimal: 500+ bars for robust statistical analysis • Longer history = more accurate duration estimates • Works on any timeframe from 1 minute to monthly KNOWN LIMITATIONS • Trending Markets Only: Performs best in clear trends. May generate false signals in choppy/sideways markets (use quality score filtering and regime detection to mitigate) • Lagging Nature: Like all trend-following systems, signals occur AFTER trend establishment, not at exact tops/bottoms. Use duration analysis boxes to set realistic profit targets. • Initial Learning Period: Duration analysis system requires 10-15 completed trends to build reliable historical database. Early duration estimates less accurate (first few weeks on new symbol/timeframe). • Visual Load: 26-layer gradient ribbon may slow performance on older devices. Disable ribbon if experiencing lag. • Statistical accuracy Variables: Duration estimates are statistical estimates, not guarantees. Accuracy varies by: - Market regime (trending vs choppy) - Asset volatility characteristics - Quality of historical pattern matches - Timeframe traded (higher TF = more reliable) • Not Best Suitable For: - Ultra-short-term scalping (sub-1-minute charts) - Mean-reversion strategies (designed for trend-following) - Range-bound trading (requires trending conditions) - News-driven spikes (estimates based on technical patterns, not fundamentals) FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q: Does this indicator repaint? A: Absolutely not. All signals, duration analysis boxes, labels, and alerts use barstate.isconfirmed checks. They only appear after the bar closes. What you see in history is exactly what you would have seen in real-time. Zero repaint guarantee. Q: How accurate are the trend duration estimates? A: Accuracy varies by mode, market conditions, and historical data quality: • Simple mode: 60-70% accuracy (within ±20% of actual duration) • Standard mode: 70-80% accuracy (within ±20% of actual duration) • Advanced mode: 75-85% accuracy (within ±20% of actual duration) Best accuracy achieved on: • Higher timeframes (4H, Daily, Weekly) • Trending markets (not choppy/sideways) • Assets with consistent behavior (Blue Chip, Large Cap) • After 20+ historical trends analyzed (builds robust database) Remember: All duration estimates are statistical calculations based on historical patterns, not guarantees. Q: Which analysis mode should I use? A: • Simple: Beginners, clean trending markets, want minimal complexity • Standard: Most traders, general market conditions (RECOMMENDED DEFAULT) • Advanced: Experienced traders, volatile/complex markets (biotech, small-cap, crypto), seeking maximum accuracy Advanced mode requires correct Asset Type configuration for optimal results. Q: What's the difference between the trading style presets? A: Each preset optimizes ALL parameters for a specific trading approach: • Scalping: Ultra-sensitive (ATR 7, Mult 2.0), more signals, shorter holds • Day Trading: Balanced (ATR 10, Mult 2.5), moderate signals, intraday holds • Swing Trading: Stable (ATR 14, Mult 3.0), fewer signals, multi-day holds • Position Trading: Very stable (ATR 21, Mult 4.0), rare signals, week/month holds Auto mode automatically selects based on your chart timeframe. Q: Should I use Auto mode or manually select a preset? A: Auto mode is recommended for most traders. It automatically matches settings to your timeframe and re-optimizes if you switch charts. Only use manual preset selection if: • You want scalping settings on a 15m chart (overriding auto-detection) • You want swing settings on a 1h chart (more conservative than auto would give) • You're testing different approaches on same timeframe Q: Can I use this for scalping and day trading? A: Absolutely! The preset system is specifically designed for all trading styles: • Select "Scalping (1-5m)" for 1-5 minute charts • Select "Day Trading (15m-1h)" for 15m-1h charts • Or use "Auto" mode and it configures automatically Volume momentum filter is auto-disabled in Scalping mode for faster signals. Q: What is Volume Momentum and why does it matter? A: Volume Momentum compares short-term volume (fast MA) to long-term volume (slow MA). It answers: "Is money flowing into this asset faster now than historically?" Why it matters: • Volume often leads price (early warning system) • Confirms institutional participation (smart money) • No lag like price-based indicators • More intuitive than complex mathematical filters When the ratio is above 1.2, you have strong evidence that institutions are accumulating (bullish) or distributing (bearish). Q: How do I set up alerts? A: Two options: Option 1 - Automatic Alerts: 1. Right-click on chart → Add Alert 2. Condition: Select this indicator 3. Choose "Any alert() function call" 4. Configure notification method (app, email, webhook) 5. You'll receive detailed alerts on every BUY and SELL signal Option 2 - Customizable Alert Conditions: 1. Right-click on chart → Add Alert 2. Condition: Select this indicator 3. You'll see three options in dropdown: - "BUY Signal" (long signals only) - "SELL Signal" (short signals only) - "ANY Signal" (both BUY and SELL) 4. Choose desired option and customize message template 5. Uses TradingView placeholders: {{ticker}}, {{close}}, {{time}}, etc. All alerts fire only on confirmed bar close (no repaint). Q: What is Scalpel Mode and should I use it? A: Scalpel Mode waits for healthy pullbacks within established trends before signaling entry. It reduces whipsaws and improves entry timing. Recommended ON for: • Swing traders (want precision entries on pullbacks) • Day traders (willing to wait for better prices) • Risk-averse traders (prefer fewer but higher-quality entries) Recommended OFF for: • Scalpers (need immediate entries, can't wait for pullbacks) • Momentum traders (want to enter on breakout, not pullback) • Aggressive traders (prefer more opportunities over precision) Q: Why do some duration estimates show wider ranges than others? A: Range width reflects historical trend variability: • Narrow range: Similar historical trends had consistent durations (high confidence) • Wide range: Similar historical trends had varying durations (lower confidence) Wide ranges often occur: • Early in analysis (fewer historical trends to learn from) • In volatile/choppy markets (inconsistent trend behavior) • On lower timeframes (more noise, less consistency) The median and average still provide useful targets even when range is wide. Q: Can I customize the dashboard position and appearance? A: Yes! Dashboard settings include: • Position: 9 options (Top/Middle/Bottom + Left/Center/Right) • Text Size: Auto, Tiny, Small, Normal, Large, Huge • Show/Hide: Toggle entire dashboard on/off Choose position that doesn't overlap important price action on your specific chart. Q: Which timeframe should I trade on? A: Depends on your trading style and time availability: • 1-5 minute: Active scalping, requires constant monitoring • 15m-1h: Day trading, check few times per session • 4h-Daily: Swing trading, check once or twice daily • Daily-Weekly: Position trading, check weekly General principle: Higher timeframes produce: • Fewer signals (less frequent) • Higher quality setups (stronger confirmations) • More reliable duration estimates (better statistical data) • Less noise (clearer trends) Start with Daily chart if new to trading. Move to lower timeframes as you gain experience. Q: Does this work on all markets (stocks, crypto, forex)? A: Yes, it works on all markets with trending characteristics: Excellent for: • Stocks (especially growth and momentum names) • Crypto (BTC, ETH, major altcoins) • Futures (indices, commodities) • Forex majors (EUR/USD, GBP/USD, etc.) Best results on: • Trending markets (not range-bound) • Liquid instruments (tight spreads, good fills) • Volatile assets (clear trend development) Less effective on: • Range-bound/sideways markets • Ultra-low volatility instruments • Illiquid small-caps (use caution) Configure Asset Type (in Advanced analysis mode) to match your instrument for best accuracy. Q: How many signals should I expect per day/week? A: Highly variable based on: By Timeframe: • 1-5 minute: 5-15 signals per session • 15m-1h: 2-5 signals per day • 4h-Daily: 2-5 signals per week • Daily-Weekly: 1-2 signals per month By Market Volatility: • High volatility = more SuperTrend flips = more signals • Low volatility = fewer flips = fewer signals By Quality Filter: • Higher threshold (60-70) = fewer but better signals • Lower threshold (30-40) = more signals, lower quality By Volume Momentum Filter: • Enabled = Fewer signals (only volume-confirmed) • Disabled = More signals (all SuperTrend flips) Adjust quality threshold and filters to match your desired signal frequency. Q: What's the difference between entry labels and info labels? A: Entry Labels (BUY/SELL): • Your primary trading signals • Based on SuperTrend flip + all confirmations (quality, volume, momentum) • Include quality score and confirmation icons • These are actionable entry points Info Labels (Volume Spike): • Additional market context • Show volume events that may support or contradict trend • 8-bar cooldown to prevent spam • NOT necessarily entry points - contextual information only Control separately: Can show entry labels without info labels (recommended for clean charts). Q: Can I combine this with other indicators? A: Absolutely! This works well with: • RSI: For divergences and overbought/oversold conditions • Support/Resistance: Confluence with key levels • Fibonacci Retracements: Pullback targets in Scalpel Mode • Price Action Patterns: Flags, pennants, cup-and-handle • MACD: Additional momentum confirmation • Bollinger Bands: Volatility context This indicator provides trend direction and duration estimates - complement with other tools for entry refinement and additional confluence. Q: Why did I get a low-quality signal? Can I filter them out? A: Yes! Increase the Minimum Quality Score in settings. If you're seeing signals with quality below your preference: • Day Trading: Set minimum to 50 • Swing Trading: Set minimum to 60 • Position Trading: Set minimum to 70 Only signals meeting the threshold will appear. This reduces frequency but improves win-rate. Q: How do I interpret the MTF Confluence count? A: Shows how many of 6 timeframes agree with current trend: • 6/6 aligned: Perfect agreement (extremely rare, highest confidence) • 5/6 aligned: Very strong alignment (high confidence) • 4/6 aligned: Good alignment (standard quality setup) • 3/6 aligned: Moderate alignment (acceptable) • 2/6 aligned: Weak alignment (caution) • 1/6 aligned: Very weak (likely counter-trend) Higher confluence typically correlates with longer, stronger trends. However, MTF analysis is optional - you can disable it and rely solely on quality scoring. Q: Is this suitable for beginners? A: Yes, but requires foundational knowledge: You should understand: • Basic trend-following concepts (higher highs, higher lows) • Risk management principles (position sizing, stop losses) • How to read candlestick charts • What volume and volatility mean Beginner-friendly features: • Auto preset mode (zero configuration) • Quality scoring (tells you signal strength) • Dashboard tooltips (hover for explanations) • duration analysis boxes (visual profit targets) Recommended for beginners: 1. Start with "Auto" or "Swing Trading" preset on Daily chart 2. Use Standard Analysis Mode (not Advanced) 3. Set minimum quality to 60 (fewer but better signals) 4. Paper trade first for 2-4 weeks 5. Study methodology references (Minervini, O'Neil, Zanger) Q: What is the Asset Type setting and why does it matter? A: Asset Type (in Advanced analysis mode) adjusts duration estimates based on volatility characteristics: • Small Cap: Explosive moves, extended trends (+30-40%) • Biotech / Speculative: Parabolic potential, news-driven (+40%) • Blue Chip / Large Cap: Baseline, steady trends (0% adjustment) • Tech Growth: Momentum-driven, longer trends (+20%) • Dividend / Value: Slower, grinding trends (-20%) • Cyclical: Macro-driven, variable (±10%) • Crypto / High Volatility: Parabolic potential (+30%) Correct configuration improves Statistical accuracy by 15-20%. Using Blue Chip settings on a biotech stock may underestimate trend length (you'll exit too early). Q: Can I backtest this indicator? A: Yes! TradingView's Strategy Tester works with this indicator's signals. To backtest: 1. Note the entry conditions (SuperTrend flip + quality threshold + filters) 2. Create a strategy script using same logic 3. Run Strategy Tester on historical data Additionally, the indicator includes BUILT-IN duration estimate validation: • System backtests its own duration estimates • Shows accuracy metrics in dashboard and duration analysis boxes • Helps assess reliability on your specific symbol/timeframe Q: Why does Volume Momentum auto-disable in Scalping mode? A: Scalping requires ultra-fast entries to catch quick moves. Volume Momentum filter adds friction by requiring volume confirmation before signaling, which can cause missed opportunities in rapid scalping. Scalping preset is optimized for speed and frequency - the filter is counterproductive for that style. It remains enabled for Day Trading, Swing Trading, and Position Trading presets where patience improves results. You can manually enable it in Custom mode if desired. Q: How much historical data do I need for accurate duration estimates? A: Minimum: 50-100 bars (indicator will function but duration estimates less reliable) Recommended: 500+ bars (robust statistical database) Optimal: 1000+ bars (maximum Statistical accuracy) More history = more completed trends = better pattern matching = more accurate duration estimates. New symbols or newly-switched timeframes will have lower Statistical accuracy initially. Allow 2-4 weeks for the system to build historical database. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMERS No Guarantee of Profit: This indicator is an educational tool and does not guarantee any specific trading results. All trading involves substantial risk of loss. Duration estimates are statistical calculations based on historical patterns and are not guarantees of future performance.

SMC Analysis - Fair Value Gaps (Enhanced)SMC Analysis - Fair Value Gaps (Enhanced) Script Summary Overview The "SMC Analysis - Fair Value Gaps (Enhanced)" script, written in Pine Script (version 6), is a technical analysis indicator designed for TradingView to identify and visualize Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on a price chart. It supports both the main timeframe and multiple higher timeframes (MTF) for comprehensive market analysis. FVGs are price gaps formed by a three-candle pattern, indicating potential areas of market inefficiency where price may return to fill the gap. Key Features FVG Detection: Identifies bullish FVGs: Occur when the high of a candle two bars prior is lower than the low of the current candle, with the middle candle being bullish (close > open). Identifies bearish FVGs: Occur when the low of a candle two bars prior is higher than the high of the current candle, with the middle candle being bearish (close < open). Visualizes FVGs as colored boxes on the chart (green for bullish, red for bearish). Mitigation Tracking: Tracks when FVGs are touched (price overlaps the gap range) or mitigated (price fully closes the gap). Strict Mode: Marks an FVG as mitigated when price touches the gap range. Normal Mode: Requires a full breakthrough (price crossing the gap’s bottom for bullish FVGs or top for bearish FVGs) for mitigation. Optionally converts FVG box borders to dashed lines and increases transparency when partially touched. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Support: Analyzes FVGs on three user-defined higher timeframes (default: 15m, 60m, 240m). Displays MTF FVGs with distinct labels and slightly more transparent colors. Ensures no duplicate processing of MTF bars to maintain performance. Customization Options: FVG Length: Adjustable duration for how long FVGs are displayed (default: 20 bars). Show/Hide FVGs: Toggle visibility for main timeframe and each MTF. Color Customization: User-defined colors for bullish and bearish FVGs (default: green and red). Display Options: Toggle for showing dashed lines after partial touches and strict mitigation mode. Performance Optimization: Limits the number of displayed boxes (50 for main timeframe, 20 per MTF) to prevent performance issues. Automatically removes older boxes to maintain a clean chart. Functionality Visualization: Draws boxes around detected FVGs, with customizable colors and text labels ("FVG" for main timeframe, "FVG " for MTF). Dynamic Updates: Extends or terminates FVG boxes based on mitigation status and user settings. Efficient Storage: Uses arrays to manage FVG data (boxes, tops, bottoms, indices, mitigation status, and touch status) separately for main and MTF analyses. Use Case This indicator is designed for traders using Smart Money Concepts (SMC) to identify areas of market inefficiency (FVGs) for potential price reversals or continuations. The MTF support allows analysis across different timeframes, aiding in confirming trends or spotting higher-timeframe support/resistance zones.

SuperTrend Cyan — Split ST & Triple Bands (A/B/C)SuperTrend Cyan — Split ST & Triple Bands (A/B/C) ✨ Concept: The SuperTrend Cyan indicator expands the classical SuperTrend logic into a split-line + triple-band visualization for clearer structure and volatility mapping. Instead of a single ATR-based line, this tool separates SuperTrend direction from volatility envelopes (A/B/C), providing a layered view of both regime and range compression. ✨ The design goal: Preserve the simplicity of SuperTrend Add volatility context via multi-band envelopes Provide a compact MTF (Multi-Timeframe) summary for broader trend alignment ✨ How It Works 1. SuperTrend Core (Active & Opposite Lines) Uses ATR-based bands (Factor × ATR-Length). Active SuperTrend is plotted according to current regime. Opposite SuperTrend (optional) shows potential reversal threshold. 2. Triple Band System (A/B/C) Each band (A, B, C) scales from the median price (hl2) by different ATR multipliers. A: Outer band (wider, long-range context) B: Inner band (mid-range activity) C: Core band (closest to price, short-term compression) Smoothness can be controlled with EMA. Uptrend fills are lime-toned, downtrend fills are red-toned, with adjustable opacity (gap intensity). 3. Automatic Directional Switch When the regime flips from up → down (or vice versa), the overlay automatically switches between lower and upper bands for a clean transition. 4. Multi-Timeframe SuperTrend Table Displays SuperTrend direction across 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, and 1D frames. Green ▲ = Uptrend, Red ▼ = Downtrend. Useful for checking cross-timeframe trend alignment. ✨ How to Read It Green SuperTrend + Lime Bands - Uptrend regime; volatility expanding upward Red SuperTrend + Red Bands - Downtrend regime; volatility expanding downward Narrow gaps (A–C) - Low volatility / compression (potential squeeze) Wide gaps - High volatility / active trend phase Opposite ST line close to price - Early warning for regime transition ✨ Practical Use Identify trend direction (SuperTrend color & line position). Assess volatility conditions (band width and gap transparency). Watch for MTF alignment: consistent up/down signals across 1h–4h–1D = strong structural trend. Combine with momentum indicators (e.g., RSI, DFI, PCI) for confirmation of trend maturity or exhaustion. ✨ Customization Tips ST Factor / ATR Length - Adjust sensitivity of SuperTrend direction changes Band ATR Length - Controls overall smoothness of volatility envelopes Band Multipliers (A/B/C) - Define how wide each volatility band extends Gap Opacity - Affects visual contrast between layers MTF Table - Enable/disable multi-timeframe display ✨ Educational Value This script visualizes the interaction between trend direction (SuperTrend) and volatility envelopes, helping traders understand how price reacts within layered ATR zones. It also introduces a clean MTF (multi-timeframe) perspective — ideal for discretionary and system traders alike. ✨ Disclaimer This indicator is provided for educational and research purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice or a trading signal. Use at your own discretion and always confirm with additional tools. ─────────────────────────────── 📘 한국어 설명 (Korean translation below) ─────────────────────────────── ✨개념 SuperTrend Cyan 지표는 기존의 SuperTrend를 확장하여, 추세선 분리(Split Line) + 3중 밴드 시스템(Triple Bands) 으로 시장의 구조적 흐름과 변동성 범위를 동시에 시각화합니다. 단순한 SuperTrend의 강점을 유지하면서도, ATR 기반의 A/B/C 밴드를 통해 변동성 압축·확장 구간을 직관적으로 파악할 수 있습니다. ✨ 작동 방식 1.

Extreme Pressure Zones Indicator (EPZ) [BullByte]Extreme Pressure Zones Indicator(EPZ) The Extreme Pressure Zones (EPZ) Indicator is a proprietary market analysis tool designed to highlight potential overbought and oversold "pressure zones" in any financial chart. It does this by combining several unique measurements of price action and volume into a single, bounded oscillator (0–100). Unlike simple momentum or volatility indicators, EPZ captures multiple facets of market pressure: price rejection, trend momentum, supply/demand imbalance, and institutional (smart money) flow. This is not a random mashup of generic indicators; each component was chosen and weighted to reveal extreme market conditions that often precede reversals or strong continuations. What it is? EPZ estimates buying/selling pressure and highlights potential extreme zones with a single, bounded 0–100 oscillator built from four normalized components. Context-aware weighting adapts to volatility, trendiness, and relative volume. Visual tools include adaptive thresholds, confirmed-on-close extremes, divergence, an MTF dashboard, and optional gradient candles. Purpose and originality (not a mashup) Purpose: Identify when pressure is building or reaching potential extremes while filtering noise across regimes and symbols. Originality: EPZ integrates price rejection, momentum cascade, pressure distribution, and smart money flow into one bounded scale with context-aware weighting. It is not a cosmetic mashup of public indicators. Why a trader might use EPZ EPZ provides a multi-dimensional gauge of market extremes that standalone indicators may miss. Traders might use it to: Spot Reversals: When EPZ enters an "Extreme High" zone (high red), it implies selling pressure might soon dominate. This can hint at a topside reversal or at least a pause in rallies. Conversely, "Extreme Low" (green) can highlight bottom-fish opportunities. The indicator's divergence module (optional) also finds hidden bullish/bearish divergences between price and EPZ, a clue that price momentum is weakening. Measure Momentum Shifts: Because EPZ blends momentum and volume, it reacts faster than many single metrics. A rising MPO indicates building bullish pressure, while a falling MPO shows increasing bearish pressure. Traders can use this like a refined RSI: above 50 means bullish bias, below 50 means bearish bias, but with context provided by the thresholds. Filter Trades: In trend-following systems, one could require EPZ to be in the bullish (green) zone before taking longs, or avoid new trades when EPZ is extreme. In mean-reversion systems, one might specifically look to fade extremes flagged by EPZ. Multi-Timeframe Confirmation: The dashboard can fetch a higher timeframe EPZ value. For example, you might trade a 15-minute chart only when the 60-minute EPZ agrees on pressure direction. Components and how they're combined Rejection (PRV) – Captures price rejection based on candle wicks and volume (see Price Rejection Volume). Momentum Cascade (MCD) – Blends multiple momentum periods (3,5,8,13) into a normalized momentum score. Pressure Distribution (PDI) – Measures net buy/sell pressure by comparing volume on up vs down candles. Smart Money Flow (SMF) – An adaptation of money flow index that emphasizes unusual volume spikes. Each of these components produces a 0–100 value (higher means more bullish pressure). They are then weighted and averaged into the final Market Pressure Oscillator (MPO), which is smoothed and scaled. By combining these four views, EPZ stands out as a comprehensive pressure gauge – the whole is greater than the sum of parts Context-aware weighting: Higher volatility → more PRV weight Trendiness up (RSI of ATR > 25) → more MCD weight Relative volume > 1.2x → more PDI weight SMF holds a stable weight The weighted average is smoothed and scaled into MPO ∈ with 50 as the neutral midline. What makes EPZ stand out Four orthogonal inputs (price action, momentum, pressure, flow) unified in a single bounded oscillator with consistent thresholds. Adaptive thresholds (optional) plus robust extreme detection that also triggers on crossovers, so static thresholds work reliably too. Confirm Extremes on Bar Close (default ON): dots/arrows/labels/alerts print on closed bars to avoid repaint confusion. Clean dashboard, divergence tools, pre-alerts, and optional on-price gradients. Visual 3D layering uses offsets for depth only,no lookahead. Recommended markets and timeframes Best: liquid symbols (index futures, large-cap equities, major FX, BTC/ETH). Timeframes: 5–15m (more signals; consider higher thresholds), 1H–4H (balanced), 1D (clear regimes). Use caution on illiquid or very low TFs where wick/volume geometry is erratic. Logic and thresholds MPO ∈ ; 50 = neutral. Above 50 = bullish pressure; below 50 = bearish. Static thresholds (defaults): thrHigh = 70, thrLow = 30; warning bands 5 pts inside extremes (65/35). Adaptive thresholds (optional): thrHigh = min(BaseHigh + 5, mean(MPO,100) + stdev(MPO,100) × ExtremeSensitivity) thrLow = max(BaseLow − 5, mean(MPO,100) − stdev(MPO,100) × ExtremeSensitivity) Extreme detection High: MPO ≥ thrHigh with peak/slope or crossover filter. Low: MPO ≤ thrLow with trough/slope or crossover filter. Cooldown: 5 bars (default). A new extreme will not print until the cooldown elapses, even if MPO re-enters the zone. Confirmation "Confirm Extremes on Bar Close" (default ON) gates extreme markers, pre-alerts, and alerts to closed bars (non-repainting). Divergences Pivot-based bullish/bearish divergence; tags appear only after left/right bars elapse (lookbackPivot). MTF HTF MPO retrieved with lookahead_off; values can update intrabar and finalize at HTF close. This is disclosed and expected. Inputs and defaults (key ones) Core: Sensitivity=1.0; Analysis Period=14; Smoothing=3; Adaptive Thresholds=OFF. Extremes: Base High=70, Base Low=30; Extreme Sensitivity=1.5; Confirm Extremes on Bar Close=ON; Cooldown=5; Dot size Small/Tiny. Visuals: Heatmap ON; 3D depth optional; Strength bars ON; Pre-alerts OFF; Divergences ON with tags ON; Gradient candles OFF; Glow ON. Dashboard: ON; Position=Top Right; Size=Normal; MTF ON; HTF=60m; compact overlay table on price chart. Advanced caps: Max Oscillator Labels=80; Max Extreme Guide Lines=80; Divergence objects=60. Dashboard: what each element means Header: EPZ ANALYSIS. Large readout: Current MPO; color reflects state (extreme, approaching, or neutral). Status badge: "Extreme High/Low", "Approaching High/Low", "Bullish/Neutral/Bearish". HTF cell (when MTF ON): Higher-timeframe MPO, color-coded vs extremes; updates intrabar, settles at HTF close. Predicted (when MTF OFF): Simple MPO extrapolation using momentum/acceleration—illustrative only. Thresholds: Current thrHigh/thrLow (static or adaptive). Components: ASCII bars + values for PRV, MCD, PDI, SMF. Market metrics: Volume Ratio (x) and ATR% of price. Strength: Bar indicator of |MPO − 50| × 2. Confidence: Heuristic gauge (100 in extremes, 70 in warnings, 50 with divergence, else |MPO − 50|). Convenience only, not probability. How to read the oscillator MPO Value (0–100): A reading of 50 is neutral. Values above ~55 are increasingly bullish (green), while below ~45 are increasingly bearish (red). Think of these as "market pressure". Extreme Zones: When MPO climbs into the bright orange/red area (above the base-high line, default 70), the chart will display a dot and downward arrow marking that extreme. Traders often treat this as a sign to tighten stops or look for shorts. Similarly, a bright green dot/up-arrow appears when MPO falls below the base-low (30), hinting at a bullish setup. Heatmap/Candles: If "Pressure Heatmap" is enabled, the background of the oscillator pane will fade green or red depending on MPO. Users can optionally color the price candles by MPO value (gradient candles) to see these extremes on the main chart. Prediction Zone(optional): A dashed projection line extends the MPO forward by a small number of bars (prediction_bars) using current MPO momentum and acceleration. This is a heuristic extrapolation best used for short horizons (1–5 bars) to anticipate whether MPO may touch a warning or extreme zone. It is provisional and becomes less reliable with longer projection lengths — always confirm predicted moves with bar-close MPO and HTF context before acting. Divergences: When price makes a higher high but EPZ makes a lower high (bearish divergence), the indicator can draw dotted lines and a "Bear Div" tag. The opposite (lower low price, higher EPZ) gives "Bull Div". These signals confirm waning momentum at extremes. Zones: Warning bands near extremes; Extreme zones beyond thresholds. Crossovers: MPO rising through 35 suggests easing downside pressure; falling through 65 suggests waning upside pressure. Dots/arrows: Extreme markers appear on closed bars when confirmation is ON and respect the 5-bar cooldown. Pre-alert dots (optional): Proximity cues in warning zones; also gated to bar close when confirmation is ON. Histogram: Distance from neutral (50); highlights strengthening or weakening pressure. Divergence tags: "Bear Div" = higher price high with lower MPO high; "Bull Div" = lower price low with higher MPO low. Pressure Heatmap : Layered gradient background that visually highlights pressure strength across the MPO scale; adjustable intensity and optional zone overlays (warning / extreme) for quick visual scanning. A typical reading: If the oscillator is rising from neutral towards the high zone (green→orange→red), the chart may see strong buying culminating in a stall. If it then turns down from the extreme, that peak EPZ dot signals sell pressure. Alerts EPZ: Extreme Context — fires on confirmed extremes (respects cooldown). EPZ: Approaching Threshold — fires in warning zones if no extreme. EPZ: Divergence — fires on confirmed pivot divergences. Tip: Set alerts to "Once per bar close" to align with confirmation and avoid intrabar repaint. Practical usage ideas Trend continuation: In positive regimes (MPO > 50 and rising), pullbacks holding above 50 often precede continuation; mirror for bearish regimes. Exhaustion caution: E High/E Low can mark exhaustion risk; many wait for MPO rollover or divergence to time fades or partial exits. Adaptive thresholds: Useful on assets with shifting volatility regimes to maintain meaningful "extreme" levels. MTF alignment: Prefer setups that agree with the HTF MPO to reduce countertrend noise. Examples Screenshots captured in TradingView Replay to freeze the bar at close so values don't fluctuate intrabar. These examples use default settings and are reproducible on the same bars; they are for illustration, not cherry-picking or performance claims. Example 1 — BTCUSDT, 1h — E Low MPO closed at 26.6 (below the 30 extreme), printing a confirmed E Low. HTF MPO is 26.6, so higher-timeframe pressure remains bearish. Components are subdued (Momentum/Pressure/Smart$ ≈ 29–37), with Vol Ratio ≈ 1.19x and ATR% ≈ 0.37%. A prior Bear Div flagged weakening impulse into the drop. With cooldown set to 5 bars, new extremes are rate-limited. Many traders wait for MPO to curl up and reclaim 35 or for a fresh Bull Div before considering countertrend ideas; if MPO cannot reclaim 35 and HTF stays weak, treat bounces cautiously. Educational illustration only. Example 2 — ETHUSD, 30m — E High A strong impulse pushed MPO into the extreme zone (≥ 70), printing a confirmed E High on close. Shortly after, MPO cooled to ~61.5 while a Bear Div appeared, showing momentum lag as price pushed a higher high. Volume and volatility were elevated (≈ 1.79x / 1.25%). With a 5-bar cooldown, additional extremes won't print immediately. Some treat E High as exhaustion risk—either waiting for MPO rollover under 65/50 to fade, or for a pullback that holds above 50 to re-join the trend if higher-timeframe pressure remains constructive. Educational illustration only. Known limitations and caveats The MPO line itself can change intrabar; extreme markers/alerts do not repaint when "Confirm Extremes on Bar Close" is ON. HTF values settle at the close of the HTF bar. Illiquid symbols or very low TFs can be noisy; consider higher thresholds or longer smoothing. Prediction line (when enabled) is a visual extrapolation only. For coders Pine v6. MTF via request.security with lookahead_off. Extremes include crossover triggers so static thresholds also yield E High/E Low. Extreme markers and pre-alerts are gated by barstate.isconfirmed when confirmation is ON. Arrays prune oldest objects to respect resource limits; defaults (80/80/60) are conservative for low TFs. 3D layering uses negative offsets purely for drawing depth (no lookahead). Screenshot methodology: To make labels legible and to demonstrate non-repainting behavior, the examples were captured in TradingView Replay with "Confirm Extremes on Bar Close" enabled. Replay is used only to freeze the bar at close so plots don't change intrabar. The examples use default settings, include both Extreme Low and Extreme High cases, and can be reproduced by scrolling to the same bars outside Replay.

DynamoSent DynamoSent Pro+ — Professional Listing (Preview) — Adaptive Macro Sentiment (v6) — Export, Adaptive Lookback, Confidence, Boxes, Heatmap + Dynamic OB/OS Preview / Experimental build. I’m actively refining this tool—your feedback is gold. If you spot edge cases, want new presets, or have market-specific ideas, please comment or DM me on TradingView. ⸻ What it is DynamoSent Pro+ is an adaptive, non-repainting macro sentiment engine that compresses VIX, DXY and a price-based activity proxy (e.g., SPX/sector ETF/your symbol) into a 0–100 sentiment line. It scales context by volatility (ATR%) and can self-calibrate with rolling quantile OB/OS. On top of that, it adds confidence scoring, a plain-English Context Coach, MTF agreement, exportable sentiment for other indicators, and a clean Light/Dark UI. Why it’s different • Adaptive lookback tracks regime changes: when volatility rises, we lengthen context; when it falls, we shorten—less whipsaw, more relevance. • Dynamic OB/OS (quantiles) self-calibrates to each instrument’s distribution—no arbitrary 30/70 lines. • MTF agreement + Confidence gate reduce false positives by highlighting alignment across timeframes. • Exportable output: hidden plot “DynamoSent Export” can be selected as input.source in your other Pine scripts. • Non-repainting rigor: all request.security() calls use lookahead_off + gaps_on; signals wait for bar close. Key visuals • Sentiment line (0–100), OB/OS zones (static or dynamic), optional TF1/TF2 overlays. • Regime boxes (Overbought / Oversold / Neutral) that update live without repaint. • Info Panel with confidence heat, regime, trend arrow, MTF readout, and Coach sentence. • Session heat (Asia/EU/US) to match intraday behavior. • Light/Dark theme switch in Inputs (auto-contrasted labels & headers). ⸻ How to use (examples & recipes) 1) EURUSD (swing / intraday blend) • Preset: EURUSD 1H Swing • Chart: 1H; TF1=1H, TF2=4H (default). • Proxies: Defaults work (VIX=D, DXY=60, Proxy=D). • Dynamic OB/OS: ON at 20/80; Confidence ≥ 55–60. • Playbook: • When sentiment crosses above 50 + margin with Δ ≥ signalK and MTF agreement ≥ 0.5, treat as trend breakout. • In Oversold with rising Coach & TF agreement, take fade longs back toward mid-range. • Alerts: Enable Breakout Long/Short and Fade; keep cooldown 8–12 bars. 2) SPY (daytrading) • Preset: SPY 15m Daytrade; Chart: 15m. • VIX (D) matters more; preset weights already favor it. • Start with static 30/70; later try dynamic 25/75 for adaptive thresholds. • Use Coach: in US session, when it says “Overbought + MTF agree → sell rallies / chase breakouts”, lean momentum-continuation after pullbacks. 3) BTCUSD (crypto, 24/7) • Preset: BTCUSD 1H; Chart: 1H. • DXY and BTC.D inform macro tone; keep Carry-forward ON to bridge sparse ticks. • Prefer Dynamic OB/OS (15/85) for wider swings. • Fade signals on weekend chop; Breakout when Confidence > 60 and MTF ≥ 1.0. 4) XAUUSD (gold, macro blend) • Preset: XAUUSD 4H; Chart: 4H. • Weights tilt to DXY and US10Y (handled by preset). • Coach + MTF helps separate trend legs from news pops. ⸻ Best practices • Theme: Switch Light/Dark in Inputs; the panel adapts contrast automatically. • Export: In another script → Source → DynamoSent Pro+ → DynamoSent Export. Build your own filters/strategies atop the same sentiment. • Dynamic vs Static OB/OS: • Static 30/70: fast, universal baseline. • Dynamic (quantiles): instrument-aware; use 20/80 (default) or 15/85 for choppy markets. • Confidence gate: Start at 50–60% to filter noise; raise when you want only A-grade setups. • Adaptive Lookback: Keep ON. For ultra-liquid indices, you can switch it OFF and set a fixed lookback. ⸻ Non-repainting & safety notes • All request.security() calls use lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off and gaps=barmerge.gaps_on. • No forward references; signals & regime flips are confirmed on bar close. • History-dependent funcs (ta.change, ta.percentile_linear_interpolation, etc.) are computed each bar (not conditionally). • Adaptive lookback is clamped ≥ 1 to avoid lowest/highest errors. • Missing-data warning triggers only when all proxies are NA for a streak; carry-forward can bridge small gaps without repaint. ⸻ Known limits & tips • If a proxy symbol isn’t available on your plan/exchange, you’ll see the NA warning: choose a different symbol via Symbol Search, or keep Carry-forward ON (it defaults to neutral where needed). • Intraday VIX is sparse—using Daily is intentional. • Dynamic OB/OS needs enough history (see dynLenFloor). On short histories it gracefully falls back to static levels. Thanks for trying the preview. Your comments drive the roadmap—presets, new proxies, extra alerts, and integrations.

CCI Stochastic - YOSI CCI Stochastic (Pro v6) – MTF, Adaptive Bands & Live Label What it does This indicator applies a Stochastic calculation on the CCI (K/D lines) to highlight momentum shifts, overbought/oversold zones, and adaptive market regimes. It comes with optional higher-timeframe confirmation, adaptive volatility bands, a live value label, and built-in alerts. Key Features Core Signal: Choose between D or K line of the Stoch-CCI. Extreme Zones: Customizable OB/OS thresholds (default 80/20) and a midline (50), with dynamic background shading. Adaptive Bands (optional): Mean ± k·standard deviation of the signal, to capture cyclic extremes. MTF Confirmation (optional): Fetches the same signal from a higher timeframe via request.security. Arrows/Signals: Enter – Cross above OS (Buy) / below OB (Sell). Center – Cross of the 50 midline (momentum shift). Exit – Exit from extreme zones. Alerts: All arrow signals + adaptive band crosses. Live Value Label: Shows the latest signal value near the last bar, customizable decimals/offset/background colors. Visuals: Red line above OB, green below OS, gray neutral; adaptive band fills. Use Cases Momentum / Reversals: Enter with OS/OB crosses confirmed by MTF. Trend validation: Combine with moving averages (e.g., EMA200) or support/resistance. Mean Reversion: Fade extreme zones, especially with adaptive band or OB/OS exit alerts. Inputs CCI Period, Stoch Period, Smooth K/D – core calculation. Overbought / Oversold – thresholds (default 80/20). Line to plot – K or D. Show Arrows (Enter, Center, Exit) – visual control. Adaptive Bands – length and k multiplier. Higher TF – optional confirmation timeframe. Live Label – decimals, offset, colors. Quick Tips For scalping/short-term setups: tighten OB/OS (e.g., 85/15) to filter noise. In high volatility: increase adaptLen or decrease k to smooth bands. Reduce false signals: require local + MTF alignment (e.g., only long if MTF > 50). Disclaimer This is a technical analysis tool – not a standalone buy/sell signal. Always use with proper risk management, key levels, and confluence from multiple factors. מה זה עושה? האינדיקטור מחשב Stochastic על CCI (קו K/D) ומציג אזורי קיצון, חציות ומשטרי שוק. הוא כולל אופציה לאישור מטיימפריים גבוה, בנדים אדפטיביים, תווית ערך חיה והתרעות מוכנות. יכולות עיקריות סיגנל מרכזי: בחירה בין קו D או K של Stoch-CCI. אזורי קיצון: קווים ניתנים להגדרה (ברירת מחדל 80/20) וקו אמצע 50, עם צביעת רקע דינמית כשנכנסים לקיצון.

TRADING SESSION TRACKER - Visualizes high/low ranges for major global market sessions (NY Open, London Open, Asian Session, etc.) 2. MULTI-TIMEFRAME CANDLE DISPLAY - Shows up to 8 higher timeframes simultaneously on your chart (15m, 30m, 1H, 4H, 1D, 1W, 1M, 3M) ════════════════════════════════════════════ 🎯 KEY FEATURES ════════════════════════════════════════════ TRADING SESSIONS MODULE: ✓ Track up to 6 custom trading sessions simultaneously ✓ Real-time high/low range detection during active sessions ✓ Pre-configured for NYO (7-9am), LNO (2-3am), Asian Session (4:30pm-12am) ✓ 60+ global timezone options ✓ Customizable colors, labels, and transparency ✓ Daily divider lines (optional Sunday skip for traditional markets) ✓ Only displays on ≤30m timeframes for optimal clarity MULTI-TIMEFRAME CANDLES MODULE: ✓ Display 1-8 higher timeframes with up to 10 candles each ✓ Real-time candle updates (non-repainting) ✓ Fully customizable colors (separate bullish/bearish for body/border/wick) ✓ Adjustable candle width, spacing, and positioning ✓ Smart label system (top/bottom/both, aligned or follow candles) ✓ Automatic timeframe validation (only shows TFs higher than chart) ✓ Memory-optimized with automatic cleanup ════════════════════════════════════════════ 🔧 HOW IT WORKS ════════════════════════════════════════════ TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION: Session Tracking Algorithm: • Detects session start/end using time() function with timezone support • Continuously monitors and updates high/low during active session • Finalizes range when session ends using var persistence • Draws boxes using real-time bar_index positioning • Maintains session ranges across multiple days for reference Multi-Timeframe System: • Uses ta.change(time()) detection to identify new MTF candle formation • Constructs candles using custom Type definitions (Candle, CandleSet, Config) • Stores OHLC data in arrays with automatic size management • Renders using box objects (bodies) and line objects (wicks) • Updates current candle every tick; historical candles remain static • Calculates dynamic positioning based on user settings (offset, spacing, width) Object-Oriented Architecture: • Custom Type "Candle" - Stores OHLC values, timestamps, visual elements • Custom Type "CandleSet" - Manages arrays of candles + settings per timeframe • Custom Type "Config" - Centralizes all display configuration • Efficient memory management via unshift() for new candles, pop() for old Performance Optimizations: • var declarations minimize recalculation overhead • Conditional execution (sessions only on short timeframes) • Maximum display limits prevent excessive object creation • Timeframe validation at barstate.isfirst reduces redundant checks ════════════════════════════════════════════ 📈 HOW TO USE ════════════════════════════════════════════ SETUP: 1. Add indicator to chart (works best on 1m-30m timeframes) 2. Open Settings → "Trading Sessions" group - Enable desired sessions (NYO, LNO, AS, or custom) - Select your timezone from 60+ options - Adjust colors and transparency 3. Open Settings → "Multi-TF Candles" group - Enable timeframes (TF1-TF8) - Configure each timeframe and display count - Customize colors and layout READING THE CHART: • Session boxes show high/low ranges during active sessions • MTF candles display to the right of current price • Labels identify each timeframe (15m, 1H, 4H, etc.) • Real-time updates on the most recent MTF candle TRADING APPLICATIONS: Session Breakout Strategy: → Identify session high/low (e.g., Asian session 16:30-00:00) → Wait for break above/below range → Confirm with higher timeframe candle close → Enter in breakout direction, stop at opposite side of range Multi-Timeframe Confirmation: → Spot setup on primary chart (e.g., 5m) → Verify 15m, 1H, 4H candles align with trade direction → Only take trades where higher TFs confirm → Exit when higher TF candles show reversal Combined Session + MTF: → Asian session establishes range overnight → London Open breaks Asian high → Confirm with bullish 15m + 1H candles → Enter long with stop below Asian high ════════════════════════════════════════════ 🎨 ORIGINALITY & INNOVATION ════════════════════════════════════════════ What makes this indicator original: 1. INTEGRATED DUAL-MODULE DESIGN Unlike separate session or MTF indicators, this combines both in a single performance-optimized script, enabling powerful correlation analysis between session behavior and timeframe structure. 2. ADVANCED RENDERING SYSTEM Uses custom Pine Script v5 Types with dynamic box/line object management instead of basic plot functions. This enables: • Precise visual control over positioning and spacing • Real-time updates without repainting • Efficient memory handling via automatic cleanup • Support for 8 simultaneous timeframes with independent settings 3. INTELLIGENT SESSION TRACKING The algorithm continuously recalculates ranges bar-by-bar during active sessions, then preserves the final range. This differs from static zone indicators that simply draw fixed boxes at predefined levels. 4. MODULAR ARCHITECTURE Custom Type definitions (Candle, CandleSet, Config) create extensible, maintainable code structure while supporting complex multi-timeframe operations with minimal performance impact. 5. PROFESSIONAL FLEXIBILITY Extensive customization: 6 configurable sessions, 8 timeframe slots, 60+ timezones, granular color/sizing/spacing controls, multiple label positioning modes—adaptable to any market or trading style. 6.

Intrabar Volume Delta — RealTime + History (Stocks/Crypto/Forex)Intrabar Volume Delta Grid — RealTime + History (Stocks/Crypto/Forex) # Short Description Shows intrabar Up/Down volume, Delta (absolute/relative) and UpShare% in a compact grid for both real-time and historical bars. Includes an MTF (M1…D1) dashboard, contextual coloring, density controls, and alerts on Δ and UpShare%. Smart historical splitting (“History Mode”) for Crypto/Futures/FX. --- # What it does (Quick) * **UpVol / DownVol / Δ / UpShare%** — visualizes order-flow inside each candle. * **Real-time** — accumulates intrabar volume live by tick-direction. * **History Mode** — splits Up/Down on closed bars via simple or range-aware logic. * **MTF Dashboard** — one table view across M1, M5, M15, M30, H1, H4, D1 (Vol, Up/Down, Δ%, Share, Trend). * **Contextual opacity** — stronger signals appear bolder. * **Label density** — draw every N-th bar and limit to last X bars for performance. * **Alerts** — thresholds for |Δ|, Δ%, and UpShare%. --- # How it works (Real-Time vs History) * **Real-time (open bar):** volume increments into **UpVolRT** or **DownVolRT** depending on last price move (↑ goes to Up, ↓ to Down). This approximates live order-flow even when full tick history isn’t available. * **History (closed bars):** * **None** — no split (Up/Down = 0/0). Safest for equities/indices with unreliable tick history. * **Approx (Close vs Open)** — all volume goes to candle direction (green → Up 100%, red → Down 100%). Fast but yields many 0/100% bars. * **Price Action Based** — splits by Close position within High-Low range; strength = |Close−mid|/(High−Low). Above mid → more Up; below mid → more Down. Falls back to direction if High==Low. * **Auto** — **Stocks/Index → None**, **Crypto/Futures/FX → Approx**. If you see too many 0/100 bars, switch to **Price Action Based**. --- # Rows & Meaning * **Volume** — total bar volume (no split). * **UpVol / DownVol** — directional intrabar volume. * **Delta (Δ)** — UpVol − DownVol. * **Absolute**: raw units * **Relative (Δ%)**: Δ / (Up+Down) × 100 * **Both**: shows both formats * **UpShare%** — UpVol / (Up+Down) × 100. >50% bullish, <50% bearish. * Helpful icons: ▲ (>65%), ▼ (<35%). --- # MTF Dashboard (🔧 Enable Dashboard) A single table with **Vol, Up, Down, Δ%, Share, Trend (🔼/🔽/⏭️)** for selected timeframes (M1…D1). Great for a fast “panorama” read of flow alignment across horizons. --- # Inputs (Grouped) ## Display * Toggle rows: **Volume / Up / Down / Delta / UpShare** * **Delta Display**: Absolute / Relative / Both ## Realtime & History * **History Mode**: Auto / None / Approx / Price Action Based * **Compact Numbers**: 1.2k, 1.25M, 3.4B… ## Theme & UI * **Theme Mode**: Auto / Light / Dark * **Row Spacing**: vertical spacing between rows * **Top Row Y**: moves the whole grid vertically * **Draw Guide Lines**: faint dotted guides * **Text Size**: Tiny / Small / Normal / Large ## 🔧 Dashboard Settings * **Enable Dashboard** * **📏 Table Text Size**: Tiny…Huge * **🦓 Zebra Rows** * **🔲 Table Border** ## ⏰ Timeframes (for Dashboard) * **M1…D1** toggles ## Contextual Coloring * **Enable Contextual Coloring**: opacity by signal strength * **Δ% cap / Share offset cap**: saturation caps * **Min/Max transparency**: solid vs faint extremes ## Label Density & Size * **Show every N-th bar**: draw labels only every Nth bar * **Limit to last X bars**: keep labels only in the most recent X bars ## Colors * Up / Down / Text / Guide ## Alerts * **Delta Threshold (abs)** — |Δ| in volume units * **UpShare > / <** — bullish/bearish thresholds * **Enable Δ% Alert**, **Δ% > +**, **Δ% < −** — relative delta levels --- # How to use (Quick Start) 1. Add the indicator to your chart (overlay=false → separate pane). 2. **History Mode**: * Crypto/Futures/FX → keep **Auto** or switch to **Price Action Based** for richer history. * Stocks/Index → prefer **None** or **Price Action Based** for safer splits. 3. **Label Density**: start with **Limit to last X bars = 30–150** and **Show every N-th bar = 2–4**. 4. **Contextual Coloring**: keep on to emphasize strong Δ% / Share moves. 5. **Dashboard**: enable and pick only the TFs you actually use. 6. **Alerts**: set thresholds (ideas below). --- # Alerts (in TradingView) Add alert → pick this indicator → choose any of: * **Delta exceeds threshold** (|Δ| > X) * **UpShare above threshold** (UpShare% > X) * **UpShare below threshold** (UpShare% < X) * **Relative Delta above +X%** * **Relative Delta below −X%** **Starter thresholds (tune per symbol & TF):** * **Crypto M1/M5**: Δ% > +25…35 (bullish), Δ% < −25…−35 (bearish) * **FX (tick volume)**: UpShare > 60–65% or < 40–35% * **Stocks (liquid)**: set **Absolute Δ** by typical volume scale (e.g., 50k / 100k / 500k) --- # Notes by Market Type * **Crypto/Futures**: 24/7 and high liquidity — **Price Action Based** often gives nicer history splits than Approx. * **Forex (FX)**: TradingView volume is typically **tick volume** (not true exchange volume). Treat Δ/Share as tick-based flow, still very useful intraday. * **Stocks/Index**: historical tick detail can be limited. **None** or **Price Action Based** is a safer default. If you see too many 0/100% shares, switch away from Approx. --- # “All Timeframes” accuracy * Works on **any TF** (M1 → D1/W1). * **Real-time accuracy** is strong for the open bar (live accumulation). * **Historical accuracy** depends on your **History Mode** (None = safest, Approx = fastest/simplest, Price Action Based = more nuanced). * The MTF dashboard uses `request.security` and therefore follows the same logic per TF. --- # Trade Ideas (Use-Cases) * **Scalping (M1–M5)**: a spike in Δ% + UpShare>65% + rising total Vol → momentum entries. * **Intraday (M5–M30–H1)**: when multiple TFs show aligned Δ%/Share (e.g., M5 & M15 bullish), join the trend. * **Swing (H4–D1)**: persistent Δ% > 0 and UpShare > 55–60% → structural accumulation bias. --- # Advantages * **True-feeling live flow** on the open bar. * **Adaptable history** (three modes) to match data quality. * **Clean visual layout** with guides, compact numbers, contextual opacity. * **MTF snapshot** for quick bias read. * **Performance controls** (last X bars, every N-th bar). --- # Limitations & Care * **FX uses tick volume** — interpret Δ/Share accordingly. * **History Mode is an approximation** — confirm with trend/structure/liquidity context. * **Illiquid symbols** can produce noisy or contradictory signals. * **Too many labels** can slow charts → raise N, lower X, or disable guides. --- # Best Practices (Checklist) * Crypto/Futures: prefer **Price Action Based** for history. * Stocks: **None** or **Price Action Based**; be cautious with **Approx**. * FX: pair Δ% & UpShare% with session context (London/NY) and volatility. * If labels overlap: tweak **Row Spacing** and **Text Size**. * In the dashboard, keep only the TFs you actually act on. * Alerts: start around **Δ% 25–35** for “punchy” moves, then refine per asset. --- # FAQ **1) Why do some closed bars show 0%/100% UpShare?** You’re on **Approx** history mode. Switch to **Price Action Based** for smoother splits. **2) Δ% looks strong but price doesn’t move — why?** Δ% is an **order-flow** measure. Price also depends on liquidity pockets, sessions, news, higher-timeframe structure. Use confirmations. **3) Performance slowdown — what to do?** Lower **Limit to last X bars** (e.g., 30–100), increase **Show every N-th bar** (2–6), or disable **Draw Guide Lines**. **4) Dashboard values don’t “match” the grid exactly?** Dashboard is multi-TF via `request.security` and follows the history logic per TF. Differences are normal. --- # Short “Store” Marketing Blurb Intrabar Volume Delta Grid reveals the order-flow inside every candle (Up/Down, Δ, UpShare%) — live and on history. With smart history splitting, an MTF dashboard, contextual emphasis, and flexible alerts, it helps you spot momentum and bias across Crypto, Forex (tick volume), and Stocks. Tidy labels and compact numbers keep the panel readable and fast.

QFisher-R™ [ParadoxAlgo]QFISHER-R™ (Regime-Aware Fisher Transform) A research/education tool that helps visualize potential momentum exhaustion and probable inflection zones using a quantitative, non-repainting Fisher framework with regime filters and multi-timeframe (MTF) confirmation. What it does Converts normalized price movement into a stabilized Fisher domain to highlight potential turning points. Uses adaptive smoothing, robust (MAD/quantile) thresholds, and optional MTF alignment to contextualize extremes. Provides a Reversal Probability Score (0–100) to summarize signal confluence (extreme, slope, cross, divergence, regime, and MTF checks). Key features Non-repainting logic (bar-close confirmation; security() with no lookahead). Dynamic exhaustion bands (data-driven thresholds vs fixed ±2). Adaptive smoothing (efficiency-ratio based). Optional divergence tags on structurally valid pivots. MTF confirmation (same logic computed on a higher timeframe). Compact visuals with subtle plotting to reduce chart clutter. Inputs (high level) Source (e.g., HLC3 / Close / HA). Core lookback, fast/slow range blend, and ER length. Band sensitivity (robust thresholding). MTF timeframe(s) and agreement requirement. Toggle divergence & intrabar previews (default off). Signals & Alerts Turn Candidate (Up/Down) when multiple conditions align. Trade-Grade Turn when score ≥ threshold and MTF agrees. Divergence Confirmed when structural criteria are met. Alerts are generated on confirmed bar close by default. Optional “preview” mode is available for experimentation. How to use Start on your preferred timeframe; optionally enable an HTF (e.g., 4×) for confirmation. Look for RPS clusters near the exhaustion bands, slope inflections, and (optionally) divergences. Combine with your own risk management, liquidity, and trend context. Paper test first and calibrate thresholds to your instrument and timeframe. Notes & limitations This is not a buy/sell signal generator and does not predict future returns. Readings can remain extreme during strong trends; use HTF context and your own filters. Parameters are intentionally conservative by default; adjust carefully. Compliance / Disclaimer Educational & research tool only. Not financial advice. No recommendation to buy/sell any security or derivative. Past performance, backtests, or examples (if any) are not indicative of future results. Trading involves risk; you are responsible for your own decisions and risk management. Built upon the Fisher Transform concept (Ehlers); all modifications, smoothing, regime logic, scoring, and visualization are original work by Paradox Algo.

[Mad]Triple Bollinger Bands ForecastTriple Bollinger Bands Forecast (BBx3+F) This open-source indicator is an advanced version of the classic Bollinger Bands, designed to provide a more comprehensive and forward-looking view of market volatility and potential price levels. It plots three distinct sets of Bollinger Bands and projects them into the future based on statistical calculations. How It Is Built and Key Features Triple Bollinger Bands: Instead of a single set of bands, this indicator plots three. All three share the same central basis line (a Simple Moving Average), but each has a different standard deviation multiplier. This creates three distinct volatility zones for analyzing price deviation from its mean. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Capability: The indicator can calculate and display Bollinger Bands from a higher timeframe (e.g., showing daily bands on a 4-hour chart). This allows for contextualizing price action within the volatility structure of a more significant trend. (Lower HTF selection will result in script-crash!) Future Forecasting: This is the indicator's main feature. It projects the calculated Bollinger Bands up to 8 bars into the future. This forecast is a recalculation of the Simple Moving Average and Standard Deviation based on a projected future source price. Selectable Forecast Methods: The mathematical model for estimating the future source price can be selected: Flat: A model that uses the most recent closing price as the price for all future bars in the calculation window. Linreg (Linear Regression): A model that calculates a linear regression trend on the last few bars and projects it forward to estimate the future source price. Efficient Drawing with Polylines: The future projections are drawn on the chart using Pine Script's polyline object. This is an efficient method that draws the forecast data only on the last bar, which avoids repainting issues. Differences from a Classical Bollinger Bands Indicator Band Count: A classical indicator shows one set of bands. This indicator plots three sets for a multi-layered view of volatility. Perspective: Classical Bollinger Bands are purely historical. This indicator is both historical and forward-looking . Forecasting: The classic version has no forecasting capability. This indicator projects the bands into the future . Timeframe: The classic version works only on the current timeframe. This indicator has full Multi-Timeframe (MTF) support . The Mathematics Behind the Future Predictions The core challenge in forecasting Bollinger Bands is that a future band value depends on future prices, which are unknown. This indicator solves this by simulating a future price series. Here is the step-by-step logic: Forecast the Source Price for the Next Bar First, the indicator estimates what the price will be on the next bar. Flat Method: The forecasted price is the current bar's closing price. Price_forecast = close Linreg Method: A linear regression is calculated on the last few bars and extrapolated one step forward. Price_forecast = ta.linreg(close, linreglen, 1) Calculate the Future SMA (Basis) To calculate the Simple Moving Average for the next bar, a new data window is simulated. This window includes the new forecasted price and drops the oldest historical price. For a 1-bar forecast, the calculation is: SMA_future = (Price_forecast + close + close + ... + close ) / length Calculate the Future Standard Deviation Similarly, the standard deviation for the next bar is calculated over this same simulated window of prices, using the new SMA_future as its mean. // 1. Calculate the sum of squared differences from the new mean d_f = Price_forecast - SMA_future d_0 = close - SMA_future // ... and so on for the rest of the window's prices SumOfSquares = (d_f)^2 + (d_0)^2 + ... + (d_length-2)^2 // 2. Calculate future variance and then the standard deviation Var_future = SumOfSquares / length StDev_future = sqrt(Var_future) Extending the Forecast (2 to 8 Bars) For forecasts further into the future (e.g., 2 bars), the script uses the same single Price_forecast for all future steps in the calculation. For a 2-bar forecast, the simulated window effectively contains the forecasted price twice, while dropping the two oldest historical prices. This provides a statistically-grounded projection of where the Bollinger Bands are likely to form. Usage as a Forecast Extension This indicator's functionality is designed to be modular. It can be used in conjunction with as example Mad Triple Bollinger Bands MTF script to separate the rendering of historical data from the forward-looking forecast. Configuration for Combined Use: Add both the Mad Triple Bollinger Bands MTF and this Triple Bollinger Bands Forecast indicator to your chart. Open the Settings for this indicator (BBx3+F). In the 'General Settings' tab, disable the Activate Plotting option. To ensure data consistency, the Bollinger Length, Multipliers, and Higher Timeframe settings should be identical across both indicators. This configuration prevents the rendering of duplicate historical bands. The Mad Triple Bollinger Bands MTF script will be responsible for visualizing the historical and current bands, while this script will overlay only the forward-projected polyline data.

Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI) - Advanced SMC [PhenLabs]📊Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI) Version: PineScript™v6 📌Description The Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI) is an advanced Smart Money Concepts implementation that tracks institutional trading behavior through multi-dimensional analysis. This comprehensive indicator combines volume-validated Order Block detection, Fair Value Gap identification with auto-mitigation tracking, dynamic Liquidity Zone mapping, and Break of Structure/Change of Character detection into a unified system. Unlike basic SMC indicators, SMFI employs a proprietary scoring algorithm that weighs five critical factors: Order Block strength (validated by volume), Fair Value Gap size and recency, proximity to Liquidity Zones, market structure alignment (BOS/CHoCH), and multi-timeframe confluence. This produces a Smart Money Score (0-100) where readings above 70 represent optimal institutional setup conditions. 🚀Points of Innovation Volume-Validated Order Block Detection – Only displays Order Blocks when formation candle exceeds customizable volume multiplier (default 1.5x average), filtering weak zones and highlighting true institutional accumulation/distribution Auto-Mitigation Tracking System – Fair Value Gaps and Order Blocks automatically update status when price mitigates them, with visual distinction between active and filled zones preventing trades on dead levels Proprietary Smart Money Score Algorithm – Combines weighted factors (OB strength 25%, FVG proximity 20%, Liquidity 20%, Structure 20%, MTF 15%) into single 0-100 confidence rating updating in real-time ATR-Based Adaptive Calculations – All distance measurements use 14-period Average True Range ensuring consistent function across any instrument, timeframe, or volatility regime without manual recalibration Dynamic Age Filtering – Automatically removes liquidity levels and FVGs older than configurable thresholds preventing chart clutter while maintaining relevant levels Multi-Timeframe Confluence Integration – Analyzes higher timeframe bias with customizable multipliers (2-10x) and incorporates HTF trend direction into Smart Money Score for institutional alignment 🔧Core Components Order Block Engine – Detects institutional supply/demand zones using characteristic patterns (down-move-then-strong-up for bullish, up-move-then-strong-down for bearish) with minimum volume threshold validation, tracks mitigation when price closes through zones Fair Value Gap Scanner – Identifies price imbalances where current candle's low/high leaves gap with two-candle-prior high/low, filters by minimum size percentage, monitors 50% fill for mitigation status Liquidity Zone Mapper – Uses pivot high/low detection with configurable lookback to mark swing points where stop losses cluster, extends horizontal lines to visualize sweep targets, manages lifecycle through age-based removal Market Structure Analyzer – Tracks pivot progression to identify trend through higher-highs/higher-lows (bullish) or lower-highs/lower-lows (bearish), detects Break of Structure and Change of Character for trend/reversal confirmation Scoring Calculation Engine – Evaluates proximity to nearest Order Blocks using ATR-normalized distance, assesses FVG recency and distance, calculates liquidity proximity with age weighting, combines structure bias and MTF trend into smoothed final score 🔥Key Features Customizable Display Limits – Control maximum Order Blocks (1-10), Liquidity Zones (1-10), and FVG age (10-200 bars) to maintain clean charts focused on most relevant institutional levels Gradient Strength Visualization – All zones render with transparency-adjustable coloring where stronger/newer zones appear more solid and weaker/older zones fade progressively providing instant visual hierarchy Educational Label System – Optional labels identify each zone type (Bullish OB, Bearish OB, Bullish FVG, Bearish FVG, BOS) with color-coded text helping traders learn SMC concepts through practical application Real-Time Smart Money Score Dashboard – Top-right table displays current score (0-100) with color coding (green >70, yellow 30-70, red <30) plus trend arrow for at-a-glance confidence assessment Comprehensive Alert Suite – Configurable notifications for Order Block formation, Fair Value Gap detection, Break of Structure events, Change of Character signals, and high Smart Money Score readings (>70) Buy/Sell Signal Integration – Automatically plots triangle markers when Smart Money Score exceeds 70 with aligned market structure and fresh Order Block detection providing clear entry signals 🎨Visualization Order Block Boxes – Shaded rectangles extend from formation bar spanning high-to-low of institutional candle, bullish zones in green, bearish in red, with customizable transparency (80-98%) Fair Value Gap Zones – Rectangular areas marking imbalances, active FVGs display in bright colors with adjustable transparency, mitigated FVGs switch to gray preventing trades on filled zones Liquidity Level Lines – Dashed horizontal lines extend from pivot creation points, swing highs in bearish color (short targets above), swing lows in bullish color (long targets below), opacity decreases with age Structure Labels – "BOS" labels appear above/below price when Break of Structure confirmed, colored by direction (green bullish, red bearish), positioned at 1% beyond highs/lows for visibility Educational Info Panel – Bottom-right table explains key terminology (OB, FVG, BOS, CHoCH) and score interpretation (>70 high probability) with semi-transparent background for readability 📖Usage Guidelines General Settings Show Order Blocks – Default: On, toggles visibility of institutional supply/demand zones, disable when focusing solely on

Structure – Default: On, notifies when BOS or CHoCH confirmed Alert on High Smart Money Score – Default: On, alerts when Smart Money Score crosses above 70 threshold indicating high-probability setup ✅Best Use Cases Order Block Retest Entries – After Break of Structure, wait for price retrace into fresh bullish Order Block with Smart Money Score >70, enter long on zone reaction targeting next liquidity level Fair Value Gap Retracement Trading – When price creates FVG during strong move then retraces, enter as price approaches unfilled gap expecting institutional orders to continue trend Liquidity Sweep Reversals – Monitor price approaching swing high/low liquidity zones against prevailing Smart Money Score trend, after stop hunt sweep watch for rejection into premium Order Block/FVG Multi-Timeframe Confluence Setups – Identify alignment when current timeframe Order Block coincides with higher timeframe FVG plus MTF analysis showing matching trend bias Break of Structure Continuations – After BOS confirms trend direction, trade pullbacks to nearest Order Block or FVG in direction of structure break using Smart Money Score >70 as entry filter Change of Character Reversal Plays – When CHoCH detected indicating potential reversal, look for Smart Money Score pivot with opposing Order Block formation then enter on structure confirmation ⚠️Limitations Lagging Pivot Calculations – Pivot-based features (Liquidity Zones, Market Structure) require bars to right of pivot for confirmation, meaning these elements identify levels retrospectively with delay equal to lookback period Whipsaw in Ranging Markets – During choppy conditions, Order Blocks fail frequently and structure breaks produce false signals as Smart Money Score fluctuates without clear institutional bias, best used in trending markets Volume Data Dependency – Order Block volume validation requires accurate volume data which may be incomplete on Forex pairs or limited in crypto exchange feeds Subjectivity in Scoring Weights – Proprietary 25-20-20-20-15 weighting reflects general institutional behavior but may not optimize for specific instruments or market regimes, user cannot adjust factor weights Visual Complexity on Lower Timeframes – Sub-hour timeframes generate excessive zones creating cluttered charts, requires aggressive display limit reduction and higher minimum thresholds No Fundamental Integration – Indicator analyzes purely technical price action and volume without incorporating economic events, news catalysts, or fundamental shifts that override technical levels 💡What Makes This Unique Unified SMC Ecosystem – Unlike indicators displaying Order Blocks OR FVGs OR Liquidity separately, SMFI combines all three institutional concepts plus market structure into single cohesive system Proprietary Confidence Scoring – Rather than manual setup assessment, automated Smart Money Score quantifies probability by weighting five institutional dimensions into actionable 0-100 rating Volume-Filtered Quality – Eliminates weak Order Blocks forming without institutional volume confirmation, ensuring displayed zones represent genuine accumulation/distribution Adaptive Lifecycle Management – Automatically updates mitigation status and removes aged zones preventing trades on dead levels through continuous validity and age monitoring Educational Integration – Built-in tooltips, labeled zones, and reference panel make indicator functional for both learning Smart Money Concepts and executing strategies 🔬How It Works Order Block Detection – Scans for patterns where strong directional move follows counter-move creating last down-candle before rally (bullish OB) or last up-candle before sell-off (bearish OB), validates formations only when candle exhibits volume exceeding configurable multiple (default 1.5x) of 20-bar average volume Fair Value Gap Identification – Compares current candle’s high/low against two-candles-prior low/high to detect price imbalances, calculates gap size as percentage of close and filters micro-gaps below minimum threshold (default 0.3%), monitors whether subsequent price fills 50% triggering mitigation status Liquidity Zone Mapping – Employs pivot detection using configurable lookback (default 50 bars) to identify swing highs/lows where retail stops cluster, extends horizontal reference lines from pivot creation and applies age-based filtering to remove stale zones Market Structure Analysis – Tracks pivot progression using structure-specific lookback (default 5 bars) to determine trend, confirms uptrend when new pivot high exceeds previous by minimum move percentage, detects Break of Structure when price breaks recent pivot level, flags Change of Character for potential reversals Multi-Timeframe Confluence – When enabled, requests security data from higher timeframe (current TF × HTF multiplier, default 4x), compares HTF close against HTF 20-period MA to determine bias, contributes ±50 points to score ensuring alignment with institutional positioning on superior timeframe Smart Money Score Calculation – Evaluates Order Block component via ATR-normalized distance producing max 100-point contribution weighted at 25%, assesses FVG factor through age penalty and distance at 20% weight, calculates Liquidity proximity at 20%, incorporates structure bias (±50-100 points) at 20%, adds MTF component at 15%, applies 3-period smoothing to reduce volatility Visual Rendering and Lifecycle – Draws Order Block boxes, Fair Value Gap rectangles with color coding (green/red active, gray mitigated), extends liquidity dashed lines with fade-by-age opacity, plots BOS labels, displays Smart Money Score dashboard, continuously updates checking mitigation conditions and removing elements exceeding age/display limits 💡Note: The Smart Money Flow Index combines multiple Smart Money Concepts into unified institutional order flow analysis. For optimal results, use the Smart Money Score as confluence filter rather than standalone entry signal – scores above 70 indicate high-probability setups but should be combined with risk management, higher timeframe bias, and market regime understanding.

TTM Squeeze Pro - IntradayTTM Squeeze Pro – Intraday (AI MTF Edition) Design Rationale This indicator is built to help traders identify when markets are consolidating, when volatility is building (squeeze), and when a breakout or trend is starting — all across multiple timeframes. The design combines three powerful ideas: Volatility Compression & Expansion (TTM Squeeze Logic): By comparing Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC), the indicator detects when volatility contracts (BB inside KC). These moments often precede explosive moves. White dots on the BB basis line mark these “squeeze” periods. Trend Strength & Direction (ADX System): The ADX (Average Directional Index) measures how strong a trend is. ADX rising above the threshold → trending market. ADX falling below the threshold → consolidation. The system classifies each bar as Trending Up, Trending Down, Consolidating, or Neutral, depending on ADX and momentum direction. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Alignment: The same logic is applied to several timeframes (1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h). A compact table at the top-right shows each timeframe’s trend and squeeze strength. This helps traders see whether short-term and higher timeframes are aligned, improving trade confidence and timing. The AI Enhancer automatically adjusts all parameters (ADX, BB, KC lengths, and thresholds) depending on the current chart timeframe, keeping signals consistent between scalping and swing trading setups. Trend and squeeze strengths are normalized on a 1–9 scale, giving users a quick numerical sense of trend power and squeeze intensity. The design emphasizes clarity, speed, and adaptability — critical for intraday trading decisions. How to Use Identify a Squeeze Setup: Look for white dots on the chart — this marks low volatility and potential energy buildup. Wait for Breakout Confirmation: When the white dots disappear, volatility expands. Check the MTF table — if multiple timeframes show green (uptrend) or red (downtrend) in the “TR” column, momentum is aligning. Enter the Trade: Go long if breakout happens above BB basis and most timeframes show green. Go short if breakout happens below BB basis and most timeframes show red. Exit or Manage Position: When new white dots appear → volatility contracting again → consider exiting or tightening stops. If MTF colors become mixed → trend losing strength. In Summary The TTM Squeeze Pro – Intraday AI MTF Indicator blends volatility analysis, trend strength, momentum, and multi-timeframe alignment into one adaptive tool. Its design aims to simplify complex market behavior into a visual, data-backed format — enabling traders to catch high-probability breakout trends early and avoid false moves during low-volatility phases.

Multi-TF 👀### Multi-Timeframe Analysis (MTF-Analysis) **Overview** The Multi-Timeframe Analysis indicator is a powerful visualization tool designed for traders who incorporate multi-timeframe (MTF) strategies into their decision-making process. It overlays compact, customizable candle representations from up to four higher timeframes directly on your chart, positioned to the right of the last bar for quick reference. This allows you to monitor price action, momentum via EMAs, and key levels like Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) across multiple resolutions without switching charts. Built with efficiency in mind, it supports automatic timeframe detection, real-time updates, and a clean, non-intrusive design that enhances your trading workflow. Ideal for day traders, swing traders, and scalpers, this indicator helps identify alignments between timeframes, spot potential reversals or continuations, and validate entries/exits based on higher-timeframe context. It leverages Pine Script v6 for smooth performance, with optimizations to handle up to 5000 bars back and extensive drawing limits. **Key Features** - **Multi-Timeframe Candle Display**: Renders recent candles (configurable from 5 to 100 per timeframe) from selected higher timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H) as compact bars with customizable width, spacing, and padding. Bullish and bearish candles are color-coded for instant recognition. - **Automatic Timeframe Adaptation**: When enabled, the indicator intelligently selects complementary timeframes based on your chart's resolution (e.g., on a 1m chart, it might show 5m, 15m, and 1H). Manual overrides are available for full control. - **EMA Overlays**: Plots EMA9, EMA21, and EMA50 on each MTF section using a user-defined source (e.g., OHLC/4, close). EMAs can be dashed for clarity and enabled/disabled per timeframe, helping to gauge momentum and trend strength. - **Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)**: Detects bullish (+FVG) and bearish (-FVG) gaps with a configurable lookback length (5-50 bars). Gaps are visualized as dotted boxes extending from the candle, highlighting potential support/resistance zones or imbalances. - **Time Labels and Debugging**: Displays timestamp labels under every fourth candle for chronological context. A debug mode expands spacing and adds detailed labels (e.g., OHLC, volume, EMA values) for testing and verification. - **Customization Options**: Extensive inputs for colors (bodies, wicks, EMAs, FVGs), label sizes/styles, and layout ensure seamless integration with your chart theme. Supports futures symbols with a time offset adjustment. - **Performance Optimizations**: Uses arrays for efficient data management, clears drawings on realtime updates or timeframe changes, and limits buffer sizes to prevent overload. **How to Use** 1. Add the indicator to your chart via TradingView's "Indicators" menu. 2. Configure timeframes: Enable/disable up to four TFs and set the number of candles to display. Use "Auto Timeframe" for smart defaults. 3. Adjust EMAs: Select the source type and toggle per TF to focus on relevant momentum signals (e.g., EMA9 crossovers for short-term trades). 4. Enable FVGs: Activate per TF and tweak the length to suit your market (shorter for volatile assets, longer for trends). 5. Fine-tune appearance: Modify padding, candle width, and colors to avoid clutter. Use debug mode during setup. 6. Interpret: Align your chart's price action with MTF candles—look for confluence in trends, FVGs filling as support/resistance, or EMA alignments for high-probability setups. **Input Settings** - **General**: Hour offset for time adjustments (useful for futures). - **Timeframes**: Enable TFs 1-4, select resolutions (e.g., "5m"), and set candle counts. Auto mode simplifies this. - **FVG/iFVG**: Toggle per TF, customize colors and detection length. - **EMA**: Enable per TF, choose source, colors, and dashed style. - **Candle Appearance**: Bull/bear colors for bodies/wicks, width/spacing/padding, label size/color. - **Debug**: Expands view for detailed inspection. **Notes** - This indicator is non-repainting and updates in realtime, but performance may vary on lower timeframes with many candles—reduce counts if needed. - FVGs are calculated locally on recent bars for efficiency; historical gaps beyond the buffer aren't shown. - Compatible with all symbols, but best on volatile markets like forex, crypto, or indices. - Feedback welcome—updates may include more MA types or advanced FVG filters.

Ripster Labels + Air Gaps (v6)What it shows (on one chart) EMA Clouds (current timeframe) Plots EMA 8/12/21/34/50/200 with three cloud fills: 12–21 = “fast” cloud 34–50 = “mid” cloud 50–200 = “base” cloud Cloud color: green when the faster EMA is above the slower (bullish), red/maroon/orange when below (bearish). Toggle lines vs. clouds via A) EMA Clouds settings. MTF Rails (higher-TF EMAs) For three higher timeframes (defaults 30m / 60m / 240m), draws two EMAs each (defaults 34 & 50). These are stepline-like rails you can visually use as higher-TF supports/resistances. Configure in B) MTF Rails (turn on/off, change TFs/lengths/colors). Relative Volume Box (RVol) Small table (top-center) showing: Candle Vol (formatted K/M/B if enabled) RVol = current bar volume / SMA 20 of volume (as a %) Color scale: blue (<100%), yellow (100–150%), red (>150%). Settings in C) RVol Box. DTR vs ATR Box Daily True Range (DTR = day high − day low) vs ATR(14) on the daily timeframe, with DTR as % of ATR. Placed at top-right; toggle in D) DTR/ATR Box. Ripster Trend Label (10m 12/50) Looks at a separate timeframe (default 10m): EMA 12 vs EMA 50. Bottom-right table cell shows “10m Trend ↑/↓/Sideways” (green/red/gray). Configure in E) Ripster Trend Labels (TF and lengths). Air Gaps (single EMA per TF) Three horizontal, auto-extending lines showing an EMA from 30m / 60m / 240m (default length 12). “Air gaps” are the price spaces between these lines—often lighter-resistance zones for price. Start point logic: All Bars = draw from the chart’s left Start of Day = draw from today’s first bar Bars Offset = draw from N bars back (default 100) Settings in F) Air Gaps (TFs, length, draw-from, bars-back). Inputs & where to tweak A) EMA Clouds Show EMA Clouds: master toggle Source: close (default) Lengths: 8/12/21/34/50/200 Show EMA lines: toggle plotted lines (clouds remain) B) MTF Rails Show MTF Rails TF1/TF2/TF3 (defaults 30/60/240) EMA A/B (defaults 34/50) C) RVol Box Show box Format as K/M/B: K=1e3, M=1e6, B=1e9 D) DTR/ATR Box Show DTR/ATR ATR len: default 14 (daily) E) Ripster Trend Labels Show labels Trend TF: default 10 (10-minute) Trend EMA Fast/Slow: default 12/50 F) Air Gaps Show Air Gap lines TF1/TF2/TF3 (30/60/240) EMA length: default 12 Draw from: All Bars | Start of Day | Bars Offset Bars back: used if Draw from = Bars Offset How it makes decisions Cloud bias = sign of (faster EMA − slower EMA) for each cloud pair. Example: 12>21 → fast cloud is bullish (green); 34>50 → mid cloud bullish (teal). 10m trend label = sign of (EMA12−EMA50) on the Trend TF (default 10m). RVol = volume / sma(volume, 20); formatted as a percent and color-coded. Practical read of the screen Fast cloud flips (12/21) often mark short-term momentum changes; mid cloud flips (34/50) reflect swing bias. Air Gap lines from higher TFs frequently act as support/resistance. Larger spaces between lines = “air gaps” where price can move with less friction. RVol color tells you how “real” a move is: red/yellow often confirms momentum; blue warns of thin/liquidy bars. DTR vs ATR shows if today’s range is stretched vs recent norm. Design choices (why your prior errors are gone) Removed multiline ?: chains → replaced by if/else (Pine v6 is picky about line continuations). Moved fill() calls outside of local if blocks (Pine limitation). ta.change(time("D")) != 0 makes the if condition boolean. Declared G_drawFrom / G_barsBack before startX() so identifiers exist.

LA - MACD EMA BandsOverview of the "LA - MACD EMA Bands" Indicator For Better view, use this indicator along with "LA - EMA Bands with MTF Dashboard" The "LA - MACD EMA Bands" is a custom technical indicator written in Pine Script v6 for TradingView. It builds on the traditional Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) oscillator by incorporating additional smoothing via Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and Bollinger Bands (BB) applied directly to the MACD line. This creates a multi-layered momentum and volatility tool displayed in a separate pane below the price chart (not overlaid on the price itself). The indicator allows for customization, such as selecting a different timeframe (for multi-timeframe analysis) and adjusting period lengths. It fetches data from the specified timeframe using request.security with lookahead enabled to avoid repainting issues. The core idea is to provide insights into momentum trends, crossovers, and volatility expansions/contractions in the MACD's behavior, making it suitable for identifying potential trend reversals, continuations, or ranging markets. Unlike a standard MACD, which focuses primarily on momentum via a single line, signal line, and histogram, this version emphasizes longer-term smoothing and volatility boundaries. It uses visual fills between lines to highlight bullish/bearish conditions, aiding quick interpretation. Below, I'll break down each component, its calculation, visual representation, and practical uses. Detailed Breakdown of Each Component and Its Uses MACD Line (Blue Line, Labeled 'MACD Line') Calculation: This is the core MACD value, computed as the difference between a fast EMA (default length 12) and a slow EMA (default length 144) of the input source (default: close price). The EMAs are calculated on data from the selected timeframe. Visuals: Plotted as a solid blue line. Uses: Measures momentum: When above zero, it indicates bullish momentum (prices rising faster in the short term); below zero, bearish momentum. Trend identification: Rising MACD suggests strengthening uptrends; falling suggests downtrends. Divergence spotting: Compare with price action—e.g., if price makes higher highs but MACD makes lower highs, it signals potential bearish reversal (and vice versa for bullish divergence). In trading: Often used for entry/exit signals when crossing the zero line or other lines in the indicator. MACD EMA (Red Line, Labeled 'MACD EMA') Calculation: A 12-period EMA applied to the MACD Line itself. Visuals: Plotted as a solid red line. Uses: Acts as a signal line for the MACD, smoothing out short-term noise. Crossover signals: When the MACD Line crosses above the MACD EMA, it can signal a bullish buy opportunity; crossing below suggests a bearish sell. Trend confirmation: Helps filter false signals in choppy markets by requiring confirmation from this slower-moving average. In trading: Useful for momentum-based strategies, like entering trades on crossovers in alignment with the overall trend. Fill Between MACD Line and MACD EMA (Green/Red Shaded Area, Titled 'MACD Fill') Calculation: The area between the MACD Line and MACD EMA is filled with color based on their relative positions. Color Logic: Green (with 57% transparency) if MACD Line > MACD EMA (bullish); red if MACD Line < MACD EMA (bearish). Visuals: Semi-transparent fill for easy visibility without overwhelming the lines. Uses: Quick visual cue for momentum shifts: Green areas highlight bullish phases; red for bearish. Enhances readability: Makes crossovers more apparent at a glance, especially in fast-moving markets. In trading: Can be used to time entries/exits or as a filter (e.g., only take long trades in green zones). Bollinger Bands on MACD (BB Upper: Black Dotted, BB Basis: Maroon Dotted, BB Lower: Black Dotted) Calculation: Bollinger Bands applied to the MACD Line. BB Basis: 144-period EMA of the MACD Line. BB Standard Deviation: 144-period stdev of the MACD Line. BB Upper: BB Basis + (2.0 * BB Stdev) BB Lower: BB Basis - (2.0 * BB Stdev) Visuals: Upper and lower bands as black dotted lines; basis as maroon dotted Uses: Volatility measurement: Bands expand during high momentum volatility (strong trends) and contract during low volatility (ranging or consolidation). Mean reversion: When MACD Line touches or exceeds the upper band, it may signal overbought conditions (potential sell); lower band for oversold (potential buy). Squeeze detection: Narrow bands (squeeze) often precede big moves—watch for breakouts. In trading: Combines momentum with volatility; e.g., a MACD Line breakout above the upper band could confirm a strong uptrend. BB Basis EMA (Green Line, Labeled 'BB Basis EMA') Calculation: A 72-period EMA applied to the BB Basis (which is already a 144-period EMA of the MACD Line). Visuals: Solid green line. Uses: Further smoothing: Provides a longer-term view of the MACD's average behavior, reducing noise from the BB Basis. Trend direction: Acts as a baseline for the BB system—above it suggests bullish bias in momentum volatility; below, bearish. Crossover with BB Basis: Can signal shifts in volatility trends (e.g., BB Basis crossing above BB Basis EMA indicates increasing bullish volatility). In trading: Useful for confirming longer-term trends or as a filter for BB-based signals. Fill Between BB Basis and BB Basis EMA (Gray Shaded Area, Titled 'BB Basis Fill') Calculation: The area between BB Basis and BB Basis EMA is filled. Color Logic: Currently set to a constant semi-transparent gray regardless of position. Visuals: Semi-transparent gray fill. Uses: Highlights divergence: Shows when the shorter-term BB Basis deviates from its longer-term EMA, indicating potential volatility shifts. Visual aid for crossovers: Makes it easier to spot when BB Basis crosses its EMA. In trading: Could be used to identify overextensions in volatility (e.g., wide gray areas might signal impending mean reversion). Zero Line (Black Horizontal Line) Calculation: A simple horizontal line at y=0. Visuals: Solid black line. Uses: Reference point: Divides bullish (above) from bearish (below) territory for all MACD-related lines. In trading: Crossovers of the zero line by the MACD Line or BB Basis can signal major trend changes. How It Differs from a Normal MACD A standard MACD (e.g., the built-in TradingView MACD with defaults 12/26/9) consists of: MACD Line: EMA(12) - EMA(26). Signal Line: EMA(MACD Line, 9). Histogram: MACD Line - Signal Line (bars showing convergence/divergence). Key differences in "LA - MACD EMA Bands": Periods: Uses a much longer slow EMA (144 vs. 26), making it more sensitive to long-term trends but less reactive to short-term price action. The MACD EMA is 12 periods (vs. 9), further emphasizing smoothing. No Histogram: Replaces the histogram with fills and bands for visual emphasis on crossovers and volatility. Added Bollinger Bands: Applies BB directly to the MACD Line (with a long 144-period basis), introducing volatility analysis absent in standard MACD. This helps detect "squeezes" or expansions in momentum. Additional EMA Layer: The BB Basis EMA (72-period) adds a secondary smoothing level to the BB system, providing a hierarchical view of momentum (short-term MACD → mid-term BB → long-term EMA). Multi-Timeframe Support: Built-in option for higher timeframes, unlike basic MACD. Focus: Standard MACD is purely momentum-focused; this version integrates volatility (via BB) and multi-layer smoothing, making it better for trend-following in volatile markets but potentially overwhelming for beginners. Overall, this indicator transforms the MACD from a simple oscillator into a comprehensive momentum-volatility hybrid, reducing false signals in trending markets but introducing lag. Overall Pros and Cons Pros: Enhanced Visualization: Fills and bands make trends, crossovers, and volatility easier to spot without needing multiple indicators. Reduced Noise: Longer periods (144, 72) smooth out whipsaws, ideal for swing or position trading in trending assets like stocks or forex. Volatility Integration: BB adds a dimension not in standard MACD, helping identify breakouts or consolidations. Customizable: Inputs for timeframes and lengths allow adaptation to different assets/timeframes. Multi-Layered Insights: Combines short-term signals (MACD crossovers) with long-term confirmation (BB EMA), improving signal reliability. Cons: Lagging Nature: Long periods (e.g., 144) delay signals, missing early entries in fast markets or leading to late exits. Complexity: Multiple lines and fills can clutter the pane, requiring experience to interpret; beginners might misread it. Potential Overfitting: Custom periods (12/144/12/144/72) may work well on historical data but underperform in live trading without backtesting. No Built-in Alerts/Signals: Relies on visual interpretation; users must manually set alerts for crossovers. Resource Intensive: On lower timeframes or with lookahead, it might slow chart loading on Trading View. This indicator shines in strategies combining momentum and volatility, like trend-following with BB squeezes, but test it on your assets (e.g., via backtesting) to ensure it fits your style.
