It combines higher timeframe trend analysis, key price levels, swing point detection, and ranging market identification to provide a holistic view of market conditions. This indicator is particularly useful for traders who employ multi-timeframe analysis, support and resistance levels, and price action strategies.
Key Features
1. Higher Timeframe Trend Background Shading:
• Purpose: Identifies the prevailing trend on a higher timeframe to align lower timeframe trading decisions with the broader market direction.
• How it Works: The indicator compares the current higher timeframe close with the previous one to determine if the trend is up, down, or ranging.
• Customization:
• Trend Timeframe: Set your preferred higher timeframe (e.g., Daily, Weekly).
• Up Trend Color & Down Trend Color: Customize the background colors for uptrends and downtrends.
• Ranging Market Color: A separate color to indicate when the market is moving sideways.
2. Key Price Levels:
• Previous Day High (PDH) and Low (PDL):
• Purpose: Identifies key support and resistance levels from the previous trading day.
• Visualization: Plots horizontal lines at PDH and PDL with labels.
• Customization: Option to show or hide these levels and customize their colors.
• Pre-Market High (PMH) and Low (PML):
• Purpose: Highlights the price range during the pre-market session, which can indicate potential breakout levels.
• Visualization: Plots horizontal lines at PMH and PML with labels.
• Customization: Option to show or hide these levels and customize their colors.
3. First 5-Minute Marker (F5H/F5L):
• Purpose: Marks the high or low of the first 5 minutes after the market opens, which is significant for intraday momentum.
• How it Works:
• If the first 5-minute high is above the Pre-Market High (PMH), an “F5H” label is placed at the first 5-minute high.
• If the first 5-minute high is below the PMH, an “F5L” label is placed at the first 5-minute low.
• Visualization: Labels are placed at the 9:35 AM candle (closing of the first 5 minutes), colored in purple by default.
• Customization: Option to show or hide the marker and adjust the marker color.
4. Swing Points Detection:
• Purpose: Identifies significant pivot points in price action to help recognize trends and reversals.
• How it Works: Uses left and right bars to detect pivot highs and lows, then determines if they are Higher Highs (HH), Lower Highs (LH), Higher Lows (HL), or Lower Lows (LL).
• Visualization: Plots small markers (circles) with labels (HH, LH, HL, LL) at the corresponding swing points.
• Customization: Adjust the number of left and right bars for pivot detection and the size of the markers.
5. Ranging Market Detection:
• Purpose: Identifies periods when the market is consolidating (moving sideways) within a defined price range.
• How it Works: Calculates the highest high and lowest low over a specified period and determines if the price range is within a set percentage threshold.
• Visualization: Draws a gray box around the price action during the ranging period and labels the high and low prices at the end of the range.
• Customization: Adjust the range detection period and threshold, as well as the box color.
6. Trend Coloring on Chart:
• Purpose: Provides a visual cue for the short-term trend based on a moving average.

Understanding the Indicator’s Logic
1. Higher Timeframe Trend Analysis:
• The indicator retrieves the closing prices of a higher timeframe using the request.security() function.
• It compares the current higher timeframe close with the previous one to determine the trend direction.
2. Key Level Calculation:
• Previous Day High/Low: Calculated by tracking the highest and lowest prices of the previous trading day.
• Pre-Market High/Low: Calculated by monitoring price action during the pre-market session.
3. First 5-Minute Marker Logic:
• At 9:35 AM (end of the first 5 minutes after market open), the indicator evaluates whether the first 5-minute high is above or below the PMH.
• It then places the appropriate label (F5H or F5L) on the chart.
4. Swing Points Detection:
• The script uses ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() functions to detect pivot points.
• It then determines the type of swing point based on comparisons with previous swings.
5. Ranging Market Detection:
• The indicator looks back over a specified number of bars to find the highest high and lowest low.
• It calculates the percentage difference between these two points.
• If the difference is below the set threshold, the market is considered to be ranging, and a box is drawn around the price action.
Limitations and Considerations
• Indicator Limitations:
• Maximum Boxes and Labels: Due to Pine Script limitations, there is a maximum number of boxes and labels that can be displayed simultaneously.
• Performance Impact: Adding multiple visual elements (boxes, labels, markers) can affect the performance of the script on lower-end devices or with large amounts of data.
• Market Conditions:
• False Signals: Like any technical tool, the indicator may produce false signals, especially during volatile or erratic market conditions.
• Not a Standalone Solution: This indicator should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy, including risk management and other forms of analysis.

Market Structure Overlay🚀 Market Structure Overlay Indicator 🚀
🔍 Overview
The Market Structure Overlay (MSO) is a sophisticated technical analysis tool created to analyze price action and understand market structure in a more precise way. It identifies Break of Structure (BOS), Market Structure Breaks (MSBs), Equal Highs (EQH), and Equal Lows (EQL) with meticulous precision by utilizing both wicks and closing prices for better accuracy. The MSO is suitable for all trading timeframes, providing traders with the flexibility to observe and trade on any scale, from intraday to long-term trends.
⚙️ How It Works
The MSO uses advanced logic to detect critical price levels that highlight structural changes in the market. It calculates swing highs and lows using user-defined settings, allowing for customization in market structure analysis. The indicator further highlights BOS and MSB levels by leveraging supply and demand detection, offering a comprehensive understanding of trend reversals and continuation points.
✨ Key features include:
📈 Bullish and Bearish BOS/MSB Lines: MSO differentiates between bullish and bearish structural events, which helps traders understand the prevailing trend and identify key pivot points.
🎨 Customizable Appearance: Traders can personalize line styles and colors for BOS/MSB, trendlines and EQH/EQL, making the tool integrate seamlessly into any chart setup.
🔄 Swing Length and Demand Memory Settings: MSO allows users to specify the swing length for BOS lookback and how many historical zones should be stored on the chart, enhancing control over how much data is analyzed visually.
📊 Market Structure Elements Explained
Break of Structure (BOS): A BOS occurs when the price breaks through a previous Higher High (HH) or Lower Low (LL), indicating a continuation of the current trend. It helps confirm the prevailing market direction.
Market Structure Break (MSB): occurs when a Higher Low (HL) or Lower High (LH) is broken, signaling a potential shift in the market trend. This typically marks the beginning of a trend reversal.
Equal Highs (EQH) and Equal Lows (EQL): These levels are areas of liquidity where previous highs or lows are tested again by the market, often signifying areas of accumulation or distribution. EQH and EQL are crucial for recognizing potential liquidity traps.
Trendlines: Trendlines are used to connect successive highs or lows, providing a visual representation of the current direction of the market. They help traders understand trend momentum and potential breakouts.
🔥 Key Features and Benefits
✅ Accurate Market Structure Detection
The Market Structure Overlay identifies Break of Structure (BOS) and Market Structure Breaks (MSB) events that indicate potential trend changes or continuations. The indicator also distinguishes between bullish and bearish market structures using color-coded lines and custom labels, which helps in immediately identifying market dynamics.
📊 Supply and Demand Zones for BOS/MSB Detection
The MSO uses Supply and Demand Zones as part of the detection logic for BOS and MSB. Although these zones are not directly plotted, they play a key role in determining when a significant structural break occurs. This unique approach enhances the accuracy of BOS and MSB identification, as it takes into account areas of accumulation or distribution that often serve as precursors to trend shifts.
🔍 Equal Highs and Lows Detection
The MSO features Equal Highs (EQH) and Equal Lows (EQL) detection, which is a significant indicator for liquidity zones where potential orders might be resting. These areas often trigger key price actions as they get tested or broken.
⚙️ Customizable Settings
Users can customize the indicator’s behavior, including choosing whether to use candle wicks or closing prices, setting swing lengths for identifying key levels, and specifying memory for storing past zones. This flexibility allows traders to adjust the indicator to suit their personal trading strategy and preferences.
⏱️ Multi-Timeframe Highs and Lows
The indicator includes multi-timeframe support for significant highs and lows (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly). This helps traders understand where they are in the larger market context, especially when making decisions during intra-session trading.
🔎 Precise Detection Approach
Unlike traditional market structure indicators that rely heavily on simple pivot points, the MSO employs a more advanced and precise detection mechanism for BOS and MSB. Traditional pivot points typically use a lookback function to identify highs and lows over a fixed period, which can lead to false signals due to market noise or temporary price fluctuations. In contrast, the MSO records and checks swing and interim points against stored memory, only signaling structural breaks after a thorough evaluation. This results in a non-repainting and highly accurate depiction of market structure, minimizing false alerts and providing traders with reliable insights based on price action that remains consistent once confirmed.
🎨 Visualization Options
The MSO uses color-coded BOS and MSB lines to easily differentiate between bullish and bearish scenarios. Users also have options to visualize equal highs/lows (EQH/EQL) to recognize potential liquidity points. A detailed breakdown of Supply and Demand Zones helps traders identify high-probability areas for entries and exits. Additionally, the indicator allows traders to toggle visibility of key elements, including trend lines, labels, and multi-timeframe levels.
📝 Summary
The Market Structure Overlay is an essential tool for understanding price behavior and structural shifts in any financial market. Its use of sophisticated logic to detect structural breaks, coupled with customizable visualizations, allows traders to gain a nuanced view of market dynamics. The supply and demand zones, together with the BOS, MSB, EQH, and EQL labels, provide a strong foundation for both trend-following and reversal trading strategies.
MSO is not just a tool for understanding market direction—it's designed to enhance decision-making by delivering reliable and actionable insights into market structure. This indicator provides a seamless blend of market theory with advanced technical features, making it a valuable asset for serious traders.

Alboncalc: Top and Bottom Detector - Straight Line ContinuityDescription:
The "Alboncalc: Top and Bottom Detector - Straight Line Continuity" is an innovative indicator for identifying key price reversal points (tops and bottoms) with precision. Unlike traditional indicators that focus on abstract data representations like oscillators or momentum-based lines, this indicator directly overlays the price chart. It draws a continuous line connecting highs and lows (tops and bottoms), providing traders with a clear and immediate visual representation of market swings. The lines automatically adjust in real-time, maintaining a straight path during trend continuations and only shifting when a trend reversal is detected.
Originality and Usefulness:
This indicator stands out from other tools available on TradingView due to its unique ability to maintain a continuous line across price swings, preserving accuracy and visual clarity. Most traditional top-and-bottom detectors merely mark points or provide indicators that are disconnected from price action, making it harder for traders to spot patterns. This script takes a different approach by drawing lines directly on the price chart, offering greater precision and better trend visualization. This innovation is particularly useful for traders who rely on visual cues and price action analysis to make decisions. It simplifies the process of identifying reversal points and trends without needing to rely on lagging indicators.
How It Works:
This indicator detects tops and bottoms based on user-defined periods. When the highest point in a given period is detected, it marks it as a top, and similarly, when the lowest point is detected, it marks it as a bottom. As the price moves, the indicator adjusts the lines to connect consecutive tops and bottoms. If the trend continues in the same direction (e.g., an uptrend), the line remains straight and extends. If a reversal is detected, a new line is drawn to connect the previous bottom (or top) to the new reversal point, providing an accurate visual representation of market trends.
How to Use:
1. Load the Indicator: Add the "Alboncalc: Top and Bottom Detector - Straight Line Continuity" to your chart from the TradingView script library.
2. Customize Settings: Adjust the "Top Period" and "Bottom Period" inputs to fine-tune the sensitivity of top and bottom detection based on your preferred timeframe.
3. Observe Price Action: As the price moves, the indicator will draw lines directly over the price chart, connecting tops and bottoms.
4. Interpret the Lines: Use the continuous lines to identify ongoing trends and potential reversal points. The line remains straight during trend continuation, indicating sustained movement in one direction. A new line signifies a reversal in the trend.
This tool is ideal for traders using trend-following strategies, breakout detection, or those who prefer clean, visual price action analysis (Only Tops and Bottons).
Underlying Concepts:
The core of this indicator is based on the highest high and lowest low concept, which is common in technical analysis. The logic is simple:
- A top is detected when the price reaches a high point compared to a user-defined number of prior candles (i.e., the `top_period`).
- A bottom is detected when the price hits a low point compared to the prior candles (i.e., the `bottom_period`).
When the price continues in the same trend, the line is extended without a break. This behavior ensures that trends are represented in a clear and consistent manner, which helps traders better identify trend continuations and reversals.
Code Breakdown:
```pinescript
//@version=5
indicator("Top and Bottom Detector - Straight Line Continuity", overlay=true)
```
- This initializes the indicator and specifies that it will overlay directly on the price chart.
```pinescript
var int top_period = input.int(5, title="Top Period", minval=1)
var int bottom_period = input.int(5, title="Bottom Period", minval=1)
```
- These inputs allow the user to customize the number of candles used to identify tops and bottoms. A higher period results in fewer but more significant top/bottom detections, while a lower period increases sensitivity.
```pinescript
isTop = ta.highest(top_period) == high
isBottom = ta.lowest(bottom_period) == low
```
- These lines check if the current candle has the highest high or the lowest low in the defined period. If true, the current price is either a top or a bottom.
```pinescript
var line currentLine = na
var float last_price = na
var int last_index = na
var bool isUpTrend = na
```
- These variables store the current line being drawn (`currentLine`), the last detected price (`last_price`), and the direction of the trend (`isUpTrend`). `last_index` tracks where the last top or bottom was detected.
```pinescript
if (isTop or isBottom)
if (not na(last_price))
if ((isTop and isUpTrend) or (isBottom and not isUpTrend))
line.set_xy2(currentLine, bar_index, (isTop ? high : low))
else
currentLine := line.new(x1=last_index, y1=last_price, x2=bar_index, y2=(isTop ? high : low), color=color.yellow, width=2)
last_price := (isTop ? high : low)
last_index := bar_index
isUpTrend := isTop
```
- The `if` block handles the logic of drawing the line. If a top or bottom is detected, and the trend continues (either an uptrend for tops or a downtrend for bottoms), the current line is extended using `line.set_xy2`. If a reversal is detected, a new line is drawn using `line.new`.
- The `last_price` and `last_index` variables are updated after each detection, and the `isUpTrend` flag is set based on whether a top or bottom was found.
Conclusion:
This indicator offers a more precise and visually intuitive way of identifying tops and bottoms directly on the price chart, making it an essential tool for traders focused on price action. Its ability to draw continuous lines through ongoing trends and adjust only upon a reversal makes it superior in terms of visual clarity compared to most conventional indicators.
The Strat Candle State Table (Two Symbols)The Strat Candle State Table (Two Symbols) – Multi-Timeframe Analysis
This advanced indicator is designed for traders who follow The Strat methodology, providing a quick, clear, and actionable view of candle states across two selected symbols and a chosen timeframe. It allows you to seamlessly integrate multi-symbol analysis into your trading, offering real-time insights into price action and market momentum based on **The Strat’s** powerful principles.
What It Does:
For each selected symbol, the indicator retrieves and analyzes the price data for three candles:
- Candle 1 (C1): The third candle from the current one.
- Candle 2 (C2): The candle directly before the current one (previous candle).
- Current Candle (CC): The live candle, which is still forming.
Using this information, it plots the Scenario 1 (Inside Bar), Scenario 2 (Directional), and **Scenario 3 (Outside Bar)** states for each candle, color-coding them to help you quickly assess market conditions and price action.
Strat Candle States:
- Scenario 1 (Inside Bar): The candle stays within the high and low of the previous candle (indicating consolidation or indecision).
- Scenario 2 (Directional)* The candle breaks either the high (2-up) or low (2-down) of the previous candle, indicating potential continuation in that direction.
- Scenario 3 (Outside Bar): The candle breaks both the high and low of the previous candle, signaling increased volatility and a potential reversal.
Customizable Color Scheme:
The default colors follow these settings (but can be changed to your preference):
- 1U (Inside and Up): Yellow (indicating an inside bar that closed higher).
- 1D (Inside and Down): Orange (indicating an inside bar that closed lower).
- 2U (Two Up): Green if the candle closes higher, Red if the candle closes lower (conflict).
- 2D (Two Down): Red if the candle closes lower, Green if the candle closes higher (conflict).
- 3U (Three Up): Lighter Purple.
- 3D (Three Down): Darker Purple/Magenta.
Each state is dynamically updated based on the actual price action and whether the candle closes above or below the open. Conflict candles (like a 2-up closing red or 2-down closing green) are highlighted, making it easier to spot potential reversals or weakness in the trend.
Timeframe Flexibility:
You can overlay this indicator on any chart regardless of the timeframe. The key is to select the timeframe you want the indicator to plot for when setting up. Whether you're working on a 5-minute chart, daily, or even weekly, the indicator will analyze the candles according to the selected timeframe, giving you the versatility to adapt it to various trading strategies.
Powerful Use Cases:
1. Multi-Symbol Analysis in Real-Time: The Strat Candle State Table displays the candle states for two symbols at once, helping you track multiple instruments without switching charts. This is extremely useful when monitoring correlated assets like SPY and QQQ, or sector-related pairs such as DIA and IWM
2. Seamless Top-Down View: By analyzing the three most recent candles (C1, C2, and the current candle), the indicator allows you to maintain a top-down perspective on price action, spotting setups early and tracking candle state changes across different symbols and timeframes.
3. Enhanced Conflict Detection: The background shading automatically adjusts for conflict candles, such as a 2-up that closes red or a 2-down that closes green. This provides a quick visual cue to warn you when the current trend may be weakening or reversing.
4. Trade Execution Precision: With this table providing constant feedback on price action and candle state, traders can more easily time their entries and exits, whether they are looking for reversals or continuations
5. Focus on Timeframe Continuity: Use this indicator to stay in alignment with The Strat's Timeframe Continuity, ensuring you are trading in the direction of the most aligned candles, across both symbols. This allows for more precise trade management and higher-probability setups.
6. Customizable to Your Strategy: Change the color coding and candle states to match your personal preferences or trading strategy, making this indicator adaptable to your specific needs.
Most Powerful Use Case – Simultaneous Break Detection:
The Strat Candle State Table shines in setups where simultaneous breaks are being monitored across multiple symbols. For example, if both symbols trigger a 2-up or 3-up at the same time, this confirms that momentum is flowing in the same direction for multiple instruments, giving you stronger trade conviction.
By seeing real-time data for two key symbols, you can ensure that you're catching simultaneous breaks, where multiple instruments are signaling the same move. This can be especially effective in index-based trading, where the strength or weakness of multiple sectors or assets must align for a higher probability of success

### Market Gap Detection
The core functionality of the **Uptrick: FVG Market Zones** indicator lies in its ability to detect Fair Value Gaps. These gaps occur when the price makes a significant jump from one level to another without any trading activity in between. The indicator uses a combination of price action analysis and volatility thresholds to identify these gaps.
- **Volatility Measurement:** The indicator begins by measuring market volatility using the Average True Range (ATR). This volatility measurement is then adjusted by the user-defined sensitivity factor, which determines the threshold for identifying significant gaps.
- **Gap Identification:** The indicator checks for instances where the current low is higher than the high two bars ago (bullish gap) or where the current high is lower than the low two bars ago (bearish gap). These conditions signify a potential FVG.
- **Gap Storage and Management:** Once a gap is identified, it is stored in an array. The indicator also manages the size of these arrays based on the selected analysis mode, ensuring that only the most relevant gaps are considered in the analysis.
### Visualization
Visualization is a key component of the **Uptrick: FVG Market Zones** indicator. By providing clear and customizable visual cues, the indicator ensures that traders can quickly and easily interpret the information it provides.
- **Gap Highlighting:** When enabled, the indicator highlights the identified FVGs on the chart using colored boxes. Bullish gaps are highlighted in green, while bearish gaps are highlighted in red. This color coding helps traders instantly recognize potential support and resistance zones.
- **Gap Filling:** The indicator can also fill the identified gaps with a semi-transparent color. This option enhances the visibility of the gaps, making them more prominent on the chart. Filled gaps are particularly useful for traders who want to keep track of these zones over multiple trading sessions.
- **Gap Averages:** The indicator calculates the average level of the identified gaps and plots these averages as lines on the chart. These lines represent the general area of support or resistance based on the detected gaps, providing traders with a reference point for setting their stop losses or profit targets.
- **Text Labels:** The indicator also labels each FVG with the text "FVG" inside the highlighted area. This feature ensures that traders can easily identify these zones even in charts with dense price action.
### Practical Applications
The **Uptrick: FVG Market Zones** indicator is versatile and can be applied to a wide range of trading strategies across different markets and timeframes. Here are a few examples of how this indicator can be used in practice:
1. **Support and Resistance Trading:**
- Traders can use the identified FVGs as dynamic support and resistance levels. By placing their trades based on these levels, they can take advantage of potential reversals or continuations at key market zones.
2. **Gap Filling Strategy:**
- Some traders focus on the concept of gap filling, where the market eventually returns to "fill" the gap created by rapid price movements. The **Uptrick: FVG Market Zones** indicator can
help identify such gaps and anticipate when the market might return to these levels.
3. **Breakout Trading:**
- The indicator can be used to identify breakouts from significant gaps. When the price moves beyond the identified FVGs, it may signal a strong trend continuation, providing an opportunity for breakout traders.
4. **Reversal Trading:**
- By monitoring the signals generated by the indicator, traders can identify potential market reversals. A sell signal after a prolonged uptrend or a buy signal after a downtrend may indicate a reversal, allowing traders to position themselves accordingly.
5. **Risk Management:**
- The average levels of the FVGs can be used to set stop-loss and take-profit levels. By aligning these levels with the FVG zones, traders can improve their risk management practices and enhance their trading discipline.
### Customization and Flexibility
One of the standout features of the **Uptrick: FVG Market Zones** indicator is its high level of customization. Traders can adjust various parameters to tailor the indicator to their specific needs and preferences.
- **Customizable Colors:** The indicator allows traders to choose their preferred colors for highlighting bullish and bearish gaps. This flexibility ensures that the indicator can be integrated seamlessly into any trading setup, regardless of the trader's color scheme preferences.
- **Adjustable Periods and Sensitivity:** By allowing traders to adjust the analysis period and volatility sensitivity, the indicator can be fine-tuned to suit different market conditions. For example, a trader might use a shorter analysis period and higher sensitivity in a volatile market, while opting for a longer period and lower sensitivity in a more stable market.
- **Toggling Visual Elements:** Traders can choose to enable or disable various visual elements of the indicator, such as gap highlighting, gap filling, and text labels. This level of control allows traders to declutter their charts and focus on the information that is most relevant to their trading strategy.
### Advantages and Benefits

Reversal Zones with SignalsThe "Reversal Zones with Signals" indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify potential market reversal points. By integrating Relative Strength Index (RSI), moving averages, and swing high/low detection, this indicator provides traders with clear visual cues for potential buy and sell opportunities.
Key Features and Benefits
Integration of Multiple Technical Analysis Tools:
The indicator seamlessly combines RSI, moving averages, and swing high/low detection. This multi-faceted approach enhances the reliability of the signals by confirming potential reversals through different technical analysis perspectives.
Customizable Parameters:
Users can adjust the sensitivity of the moving averages, the RSI overbought and oversold levels, and the length of the reversal zones. This flexibility allows traders to tailor the indicator to fit their specific trading strategies and market conditions.
Clear Visual Signals:
Buy and sell signals are plotted directly on the chart as easily recognizable green and red labels. This visual clarity simplifies the process of identifying potential entry and exit points, enabling traders to act quickly and decisively.
Reversal Zones:
The indicator plots reversal zones based on swing highs and lows in conjunction with RSI conditions. Green lines represent potential support levels (zone bottoms), while red lines represent potential resistance levels (zone tops). These zones provide traders with clear areas where price reversals are likely to occur.
Automated Alerts:
Custom alerts can be set for both buy and sell signals, providing real-time notifications when potential trading opportunities arise. This feature ensures that traders do not miss critical market moves.
How It Works
RSI Calculation:
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is calculated to determine overbought and oversold conditions. When RSI exceeds the overbought threshold, it indicates that the market may be overbought, and when it falls below the oversold threshold, it indicates that the market may be oversold. This helps in identifying potential reversal points.
Swing High/Low Detection:
Swing highs and lows are detected using a specified lookback period. These points represent significant price levels where reversals are likely to occur. Swing highs are detected using the ta.pivothigh function, and swing lows are detected using the ta.pivotlow function.
Reversal Zones:
Reversal zones are defined by plotting lines at swing high and low levels when RSI conditions are met. These zones serve as visual cues for potential support and resistance areas, providing a structured framework for identifying reversal points.
Buy and Sell Signals:
Buy signals are generated when the price crosses above a defined reversal zone bottom, indicating a potential upward reversal. Sell signals are generated when the price crosses below a defined reversal zone top, indicating a potential downward reversal. These signals are further confirmed by the presence of bullish or bearish engulfing patterns.
Plotting and Alerts:
The indicator plots buy and sell signals directly on the chart with corresponding labels. Additionally, alerts can be set up to notify the user when a signal is generated, ensuring timely action.

Let's dive into each of the components of this indicator.
Volume: Volume refers to the number of shares or contracts traded in a security or an entire market during a given period. It is a measure of the total trading activity and liquidity, indicating the overall interest in a stock or market.
Price Action: the analysis of historical prices to inform trading decisions, without the use of technical indicators. It focuses on the movement of prices to identify patterns, trends, and potential reversal points in the market.
Relative Strength Line: The RS line is a popular tool used to compare the performance of a stock, typically calculated as the ratio of the stock's price to a benchmark index's price. It helps identify outperformers and underperformers relative to the market or a specific sector. The RS value is calculated by dividing the close price of the chosen stock by the close price of the comparative symbol (SPX by default).
Average True Range (ATR): ATR is a market volatility indicator used to show the average range prices swing over a specified period. It is calculated by taking the moving average of the true ranges of a stock for a specific period. The true range for a period is the greatest of the following three values:
The difference between the current high and the current low.
The absolute value of the current high minus the previous close.
The absolute value of the current low minus the previous close.
Average Daily Range (ADR): ADR is a measure used in trading to capture the average range between the high and low prices of an asset over a specified number of past trading days. Unlike the Average True Range (ATR), which accounts for gaps in the price from one day to the next, the Average Daily Range focuses solely on the trading range within each day and averages it out.
Anchored VWAP: AVWAP gives the average price of an asset, weighted by volume, starting from a specific anchor point. This provides traders with a dynamic average price considering both price and volume from a specific start point, offering insights into the market's direction and potential support or resistance levels.
Moving Averages: Moving Averages smooth out price data by creating a constantly updated average price over a specific period of time. It helps traders identify trends by flattening out the fluctuations in price data.
Stochastic: A stochastic oscillator is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis that compares a particular closing price of an asset to a range of its prices over a certain period of time. The theory behind the stochastic oscillator is that in a market trending upwards, prices will tend to close near their high, and in a market trending downwards, prices close near their low.
While each of these components offer unique insights into market behavior, providing sell signals under specific conditions, the power of combining these different signals lies in their ability to confirm each other's signals. This in turn reduces false positives and provides a more reliable basis for trading decisions
These signals can be recognized at any time, however the indicators power is in it's ability to take into account where a trade is in terms of your entry price and stop.
If a trade just started, it hasn’t earned much leeway. Kind of like a new employee that shows up late on the first day of work. It’s less forgivable than say the person who has been there for a while, has done well, is on time, and then one day comes in late.
Contextual Sensitivity:
For instance, a high volume sell-off coupled with a bearish price action pattern significantly strengthens the sell signal. When the price closes below an Anchored VWAP or a critical moving average in this context, it reaffirms the bearish sentiment, suggesting that the momentum is likely to continue downwards.
By considering the relative strength line (RS) alongside volume and price action, the indicator can differentiate between a normal retracement in a strong uptrend and a when a stock starts to become a laggard.
The integration of ATR and ADR provides a dynamic framework that adjusts to the market's volatility. A sudden increase in ATR or a character change detected through comparing short-term and long-term ADR can alert traders to emerging trends or reversals.
The "Danger Signals" indicator exemplifies the power of integrating diverse technical indicators to create a more sophisticated, responsive, and adaptable trading tool. This approach not only amplifies the individual strengths of each indicator but also mitigates their weaknesses.

SMC Structures and Multi-Timeframe FVG PYSMC Structures and Multi-Timeframe FVG Indicator
Tip: For optimal performance, adjust the number of FVGs displayed per timeframe in the settings. On high-performance devices, up to 8 FVGs per timeframe can be used without issues. If you experience slowdowns, reduce to 3 or 4 FVGs per timeframe. If the chart flashes, disable indicators one by one to identify conflicts, or try using the TradingView Mobile or Windows App for a smoother experience.
Overview
This Pine Script indicator enhances market analysis by integrating Smart Money Concepts (SMC) with Fair Value Gaps (FVG) across multiple timeframes. It identifies trend continuations (Break of Structure, BOS) and trend reversals (Change of Character, CHoCH) while highlighting liquidity zones through FVG detection. The indicator includes eight customizable Moving Average (MA) curve templates, disabled by default, to complement SMC and FVG analysis. Its originality lies in combining multi-timeframe FVG detection with SMC structure analysis, providing traders with a cohesive tool to visualize price action patterns and liquidity zones efficiently.
Features and Functionality
1. Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
The indicator detects and displays bullish, bearish, and mitigated FVGs, representing liquidity zones where price inefficiencies occur. These gaps are dynamically updated based on price action:
Bullish FVG: Displayed in green when unmitigated, indicating potential upward liquidity zones.
Bearish FVG: Displayed in red when unmitigated, signaling potential downward liquidity zones.
Mitigated FVG: Shown in gray once the gap is partially filled by price action.
Fully Mitigated FVG: Automatically removed from the chart when the gap is fully filled, reducing visual clutter.
Users can customize the number of historical FVGs displayed via the settings, allowing focus on recent liquidity zones for targeted analysis.
2. SMC Structures
The indicator identifies key SMC price action patterns:
Break of Structure (BOS): Marked with gray lines, indicating trend continuation when price breaks a significant high or low.
Change of Character (CHoCH): Highlighted with yellow lines, signaling potential trend reversals when price fails to maintain the current structure.
High/Low Values: Blue lines denote the highest high and lowest low of the current structure, providing reference points for market context.
3. Multi-Timeframe FVG Analysis
A standout feature is the ability to analyze FVGs across multiple timeframes simultaneously. This allows traders to align higher-timeframe liquidity zones with lower-timeframe entries, improving trade precision. The indicator fetches FVG data from user-selected timeframes, displaying them cohesively on the chart.
4. Moving Average (MA) Templates
The indicator includes eight customizable MA curve templates in the Settings > Template section, disabled by default. These templates allow users to overlay MAs (e.g., SMA, EMA, WMA) to complement SMC and FVG analysis. Each template is pre-configured with different periods and types, enabling quick adaptation to various trading strategies, such as trend confirmation or dynamic support/resistance.
How It Works
The script processes price action to detect FVGs by analyzing three-candle patterns where a gap forms between the high/low of the first and third candles. Multi-timeframe data is retrieved using Pine Script’s request.security() function, ensuring accurate FVG plotting across user-defined timeframes. BOS and CHoCH are identified by tracking swing highs and lows, with logic to differentiate trend continuation from reversals. The MA templates are computed using standard Pine Script TA functions, with user inputs controlling visibility and parameters.
How to Use
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to any TradingView chart.
Configure Settings:
FVG Settings: Adjust the number of historical FVGs to display (default: 10). Enable/disable specific FVG types (bullish, bearish, mitigated).
Timeframe Selection: Choose up to three timeframes for FVG analysis (e.g., 1H, 4H, 1D) to align with your trading strategy.
Structure Settings: Toggle BOS (gray lines) and CHoCH (yellow lines) visibility. Adjust sensitivity for structure detection if needed.
MA Templates: Enable MA curves via the Template section. Select from eight pre-configured MA types and periods to suit your analysis.
Interpret Signals:
Use green/red FVGs for potential entry points targeting liquidity zones.
Monitor gray lines (BOS) for trend continuation and yellow lines (CHoCH) for reversal signals.
Align multi-timeframe FVGs with BOS/CHoCH for high-probability setups.
Optionally, use MA curves for trend confirmation or dynamic levels.
Clean Chart Usage: The indicator is designed to work standalone. Ensure no conflicting scripts are applied unless explicitly needed for your strategy.
Why This Indicator Is Unique
Unlike standalone FVG or SMC indicators, this script combines both concepts with multi-timeframe analysis, offering a comprehensive view of market structure and liquidity. The addition of customizable MA templates enhances flexibility, while the dynamic removal of mitigated FVGs keeps the chart clean. This mashup is purposeful, as it integrates complementary tools to streamline decision-making for traders using SMC strategies.

Bullish Body Close: Closes above previous high, signaling strong buying.
Bearish Body Close: Closes below previous low, indicating intense selling.
Bullish Affinity: High tests previous low, closes within range, showing hidden bullish strength.
Bearish Affinity: Low tests previous high, closes within range, reflecting bearish pressure.
Seek & Destroy: Breaks both previous high/low, closes inside, direction depends on close.
Close Inside: High/low within previous range, bias based on close.
2. Plus/Minus Strength System
Quantifies candle conviction:
Bullish Strength: Low to close distance.
Bearish Strength: High to close distance.

Minus (-): Balanced strengths suggest caution.
3. PO4 Candles (Power of OHLC (4))
Analyzes OHLC for body-closed candles after swing high/low fractals:
C2: Body close above high/below low post fractal with strength conditions.
C3: Stronger body close with pronounced low/high breakouts.
C4: Body close which show strength and might trigger a BeB/BuB
Visualization: Green (bullish), purple (bearish) bars; triangle markers for fractals.
4. MC2 (High Volume Reversal Candles)
High buy/sell volume candles reversed by opposing volume:
Bullish MC2: Buy volume flipped by sell volume, signaling exhaustion.

Purpose: Pinpoint high-probability entry areas following a Market Structure Change (MSC), aligning with smart money direction.
Formation:
MMM Entry Block Long: Forms after a bullish MSC (BuB), typically at the swing low (e.g., lowerValueMSC) of the fractal pattern, marking a long entry zone.
MMM Entry Block Short: Forms after a bearish MSC (BeB), typically at the swing high (e.g., upperValueMSC), marking a short entry zone.
Styles :
Close-to-Swing High/Low: Box drawn from the candle’s close to the swing high/low level, emphasizing the fractal pivot.
High/Low-to-Close: Box drawn from the candle’s high/low to its close, capturing the full price action range.

PoiBox# PoiBox: Advanced Market Structure and POI Visualization Tool
PoiBox is a comprehensive market structure analysis tool designed to identify high-probability trading zones through advanced internal market structure (IDM) detection and points of interest (POI) calculation.
## How It Works
The indicator uses a multi-step approach to analyze price action:
1. **Market Structure Identification**: The script identifies significant highs and lows within your selected time range to determine the overall market structure direction (up or down).
2. **IDM Pattern Detection**: It then analyzes internal market structure patterns within this range, focusing on significant price movements that create trading opportunities.
3. **POI Calculation**: Using adaptive ATR measurements across multiple timeframes, the indicator calculates precise POI zones where price is likely to react. These zones are calibrated based on the volatility profile of each identified structure.
4. **Timeframe Correlation**: The script automatically determines which timeframe best matches each structure's size, providing valuable context for your trading decisions.
5. **Technical Implementation**: The indicator uses a sophisticated algorithm to analyze price swings, identify pivot points, and calculate market structure connections. It maintains a database of significant highs/lows and uses these to determine trend direction and potential reversal zones.
## Display Modes
PoiBox offers three powerful display options:
- **Main BOS**: Shows only the most significant breakout structure with its associated POI zone
- **Leg**: Displays the largest price leg within the selected range along with percentage-based POI zones
- **All IDMs**: Reveals all detected internal market structures and their POI zones
## Advanced Features
- **QM Mode**: Visualizes important market structure relationships with dashed lines connecting significant highs and lows
- **Trick Display**: Identifies nested market structures (tricks) within larger patterns, perfect for precision entries
- **Customizable POI Labels**: Control which price labels appear to maintain chart clarity
- **Extensive Color Settings**: Fully customizable colors for all visual elements
- **Safety Functions**: Includes built-in buffer management and error prevention algorithms to ensure stable performance across all timeframes and market conditions
## Trading Examples
**Downtrend Example:**
When PoiBox identifies a downtrend structure (Higher High → High → Low → Lower Low), it creates POI zones based on the market structure. As shown in the chart, these zones provide excellent entry opportunities when price returns to test previous structure. In this example, entering at the red POI zone with a stop above the zone and target at the QM level resulted in a 3.45 risk/reward trade.
**How to Read QM Lines:**
The dashed lines connecting High → Low → Higher High → Lower Low reveal the market's true structure. These connections help you anticipate where price might head next. When price breaks below a significant Low and creates a Lower Low, it confirms the downtrend continuation and provides a trading opportunity when price retests the broken structure.
**POI Zone Interpretation:**
- Red zones indicate bearish POI areas (ideal for short entries)
- Green zones indicate bullish POI areas (ideal for long entries)
- Yellow zones highlight the identified market structure
## Practical Application Example
In the GBP/USD example shown in the chart:
1. PoiBox identified a downtrend structure with Higher High → High → Low → Lower Low
2. The yellow box shows the main market structure area
3. The red POI zone appeared when price returned to test previous structure
4. Entry was taken at the POI zone with stop loss above structure
5. Target was placed at the QM level, resulting in a 3.45 risk/reward ratio trade
6. The dashed QM lines showed the overall market flow and direction
This demonstrates how PoiBox automatically identifies optimal entry and exit points based on market structure, without requiring manual analysis of each price swing.
## Mathematical Approach
PoiBox uses several mathematical concepts to determine market structure and calculate POI zones:
1. **Adaptive ATR Integration**: The script analyzes ATR (Average True Range) across multiple timeframes (M1, M5, M15, H1, H4, D1, W1, MN1) to determine the appropriate volatility context for each structure.
2. **Height-to-ATR Ratio**: The indicator calculates the ratio between structure height and the closest matching ATR value to determine the structure's timeframe context.
3. **Dynamic POI Calculation**: POI values are calculated using the formula:
`POI = factor * (atr_trigger + atr_double_trigger)`
where `factor` is derived from the structure's height-to-ATR ratio.
4. **Self-Adjusting Limits**: If the calculated POI value exceeds certain thresholds relative to structure height, the script automatically applies proportional adjustments to maintain optimal zone sizing.
## What Makes PoiBox Unique
While many indicators use common concepts like support/resistance or trend analysis, PoiBox stands apart through its:
1. **Adaptive POI Calculation**: Unlike static indicators, PoiBox automatically calibrates POI zones based on each market structure's volatility profile by analyzing ATR across multiple timeframes.
2. **Smart Timeframe Detection**: The indicator automatically determines the most relevant timeframe for each structure, eliminating guesswork and helping you align your trading with the appropriate market cycles.
3. **QM Visualization System**: Our proprietary QM visualization method reveals hidden market structure relationships that standard indicators cannot detect, giving you an edge in anticipating price movements.
4. **Nested Pattern Recognition**: The "Trick" detection feature identifies high-probability setups where smaller patterns form within larger ones, creating precise entry opportunities missed by conventional tools.
5. **Self-Adjusting Analysis**: PoiBox dynamically adapts to changing market conditions without requiring manual parameter adjustments, saving you time and increasing accuracy.
These innovations combine to create a truly original trading system that transforms complex market structure concepts into clear, actionable signals.
## How To Use
1. Define your analysis area using the time range selectors (X1 and X2)
2. Choose your preferred display mode based on your trading style
3. Enable QM Mode for additional market structure context if needed
4. Use the POI zones as potential entry and exit areas for your trades
5. Reference the automatically detected timeframe indicators to align your trading with the appropriate timeframe

CandelaCharts - CRT Model📝 Overview
Candle Range Theory (CRT) is a framework that treats every candle as a tradable range. A candle defines high/low, the next candle often sweeps one side (manipulation), reclaims back inside, and distributes toward the opposite side with 50% of the range as a common first target.
It posits that each candlestick represents a distinct range of price action, defined by its high, low, open, and close, and that price movements are structured within these ranges.
📦 Features
Timeframe Pairing: This indicator highlights movements on lower timeframes within higher timeframe candles, providing insights into micro trends, structural changes, and potential entry points.
Bias Selection: This feature allows analysts to manage bias and identify setups, displaying bullish, bearish, or neutral models that align with higher timeframe trends.
Double Purge Sweeps: A double purge is a type of sweep where the price breaks both the high and low of the previous candle (through the wicks) before closing within the range of that same candle.
CRT Times: Times when high-probability CRTs occur.
HTF Candles: The CRT Model is rooted in the ICT Power of Three, assisting traders in identifying key turning points and market transitions across multiple timeframes.

CRT H/L
The CRT Model follows a specific lifecycle, which highlights the current state of the model and determines whether a trade opportunity is valid.
The model's lifecycle includes the following statuses:
Formation (grey)
Invalidation (red)
Success (green)
By utilizing the phases of Formation, Invalidation, and Success, traders can efficiently manage their positions, reduce risk, and take advantage of high-probability setups offered by the CRT Model.
Trading Candle 2 (The Reversal)
Use Candle 2’s wick, body, and context to judge whether the next leg trends or mean-reverts.
Expansion vs. reversal
Expansion candle: Small wicks, strong body, one-way momentum.
Reversal (Candle 2): Drives opposite, prints a long opposing wick, closes near open—context decides if it’s tradable.
Key idea: Small wicks favor continued expansion; large wicks often cap expansion because the range was “spent” building the wick.
Why wick size matters
Small-wick reversal: More “runway”—target prior highs/lows, liquidity pools, standard-deviation projections.
Large-wick reversal: Range consumed—expect mean-reversion toward the open or session extremes.
Think of wick size as a fuel gauge: less wick → more potential.
Trading Candle 3 (The Continuation)
Candle 2 flips bias; Candle 3 aims to capture the follow-through (Candle 4 often offers secondary continuation).
Wick size on Candle 2 decides the play:
Small wick → you can trade Candle 2 directly.
Large wick → let Candle 2 close and trade Candle 3 instead.
Avoid chasing weak continuations:
If Candle 2 has already expanded hard, Candle 3 can become a chase into retrace/chop.
Demand extra LTF confluence: protected swings, SMT divergence, and multiple continuation cues aligning.

Known Issues:
For some reason it bug's out when either or are displaying more than 19 lines, unsure why so its limited to that for now.
Extra Note on what this may be useful for: I always wanted to make this, but didn't realize how to put things in front of the price action... Offset! Duh! Anyways, I thought of this one because I often it's hard on these charts to really get an idea for absolute price amounts across different time frames, this in an intuitive, at a glance way to see it because the regular price thing on the right always adds values between values when you zoom in and you can sometimes get lost figuring out the proportions of things.

FVG | iSolani
Unveiling Market Inefficiencies with Precision
In fast-moving markets, spotting hidden opportunities often hinges on identifying imbalances between price and value. The FVG | iSolani indicator revolutionises this process by detecting Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) —zones where price action skips over "fair" valuation levels, creating potential retracement targets. Combining advanced filtering, dynamic visualisation, and automated management, this tool empowers traders to pinpoint high-probability setups with unprecedented clarity.
Core Methodology
The indicator employs a multi-layered approach to identify FVGs:
Three-Bar Gap Analysis: Bullish FVGs form when the current low exceeds the high of two bars prior, while bearish FVGs occur when the current high stays below the low of two bars back.
Volatility-Adjusted Filtering: Gaps are measured against a 100-bar standard deviation to exclude insignificant price jumps.
Volume Confirmation: Only gaps accompanied by above-average volume (relative to a 1-bar SMA) are validated, filtering out low-conviction moves.
Auto-Invalidation System: Continuously monitors price action to remove FVG zones once price closes within their range, maintaining chart cleanliness.
Breaking New Ground
This tool introduces three paradigm-shifting innovations:
Volume-Weighted Significance: Unlike traditional FVG detectors, it ties gap validity to volume spikes, emphasising institutional activity.
Adaptive Zone Management: Boxes automatically extend rightward (when enabled) and self-destruct when invalidated, eliminating manual cleanup.
Smart Color Encoding: Offers both monochrome (for multi-timeframe analysis) and standard bull/bear color schemes, with customisable transparency.
Engine Under the Hood
The script operates through four key processes:
Gap Detection: Scans every new bar for three-candle patterns meeting FVG criteria.
Statistical Filtering: Applies user-defined threshold (default: 1σ) to separate meaningful gaps from market noise.
Box Rendering: Draws semi-transparent zones between gap boundaries using TradingView's box objects, styled according to user preferences.
Array-Based Memory: Stores all active FVGs in arrays, enabling real-time validation checks against current price action.
Standard Configuration
Optimised default settings balance visibility and functionality:
Filter: 1.0 (1 standard deviation threshold)
Colors: "Mono" mode (gray boxes) with 90% transparency
Text Labels: Enabled in medium gray
Extension: Gaps extend indefinitely rightward
Borders: Dotted lines with visible outlines
Through its fusion of quantitative rigor and visual adaptability, the FVG | iSolani transforms raw price data into actionable intelligence. By focusing on volume-confirmed gaps and automating zone management, it cuts through market chaos to reveal structurally significant levels—a must-have for traders navigating breakouts, reversals, or order-flow analysis.
Pivot Points [SMRT Algo]Pivot Points is a free, innovative indicator designed to automatically detect and highlight key turning points on your TradingView charts through advanced candlestick pattern analysis. This indicator is perfect for traders seeking clear visual signals for potential trend reversals.
How It Works:
Candlestick Pattern Analysis: The indicator continuously scans for specific candlestick formations. It identifies a potential high pivot when a bullish candle (where the close is higher than the open) is immediately followed by a bearish candle (where the close is lower than the open). Conversely, a potential low pivot is detected when a bearish candle is followed by a bullish candle.
Boxing the Price Range: Once a potential pivot is identified, the algorithm draws a box around the corresponding price range. This box captures the area where the price action is concentrated, serving as a zone of interest for the pivot.
Confirmation of Major Pivots: The initial detection marks what we call a "minor pivot" with a temporary yellow box. The indicator then waits for subsequent price action. If the price fails to break out of this box—meaning it remains confined within the defined boundaries—the pivot is confirmed as a major pivot. At this stage, the yellow box changes color to green (or red, depending on whether it’s a high or low pivot), clearly marking the confirmed turning point.
Pivot Sequence: The progression follows a clear sequence: Minor Pivot ➔ Yellow Box ➔ Major Pivot. This step-by-step visual guide helps traders quickly interpret the strength and significance of the pivot.
Inputs:
Show Labels: An input option allows you to toggle pivot labels on or off, so you can choose whether to display descriptive labels directly on your chart.
Adjustable Colors: The colors of the pivot points—including the green and red boxes—are fully customizable via the input settings. This ensures that you can tailor the visual appearance of the indicator to match your personal charting style or trading strategy.
Enhancing Entry and Exit Strategies
Entry Points: Look to enter a trade when the indicator confirms a pivot (after the box changes color). A confirmed pivot could indicate that a reversal is underway, giving you a potential entry signal.
Exit Points & Stop Losses: Use the boundaries of the pivot box to set stop losses. For example, if you’re in a long trade and the price approaches a confirmed resistance pivot, consider this a signal to tighten stops or exit, as the trend may reverse.
Confluence with Other Indicators: Combine the pivot point signals with other tools like RSI, MACD, or volume indicators. If multiple signals point to a reversal at the same pivot, it strengthens your confidence in the trade decision.
Trading Strategy Applications
Reversal Trading: Use confirmed pivot points as indicators for potential reversals. Enter trades when the price action validates the pivot point, anticipating that the market is turning.
Range Trading: When the price oscillates within a defined pivot box, you can use the top and bottom of the box as potential boundaries for a range-trading strategy.
Breakout Trading: Conversely, if the price breaks out of a pivot box, this may signal the start of a new trend. You can use this breakout as a trigger for entering a position in the direction of the breakout.
The indicator highlights potential reversal zones with clearly marked boxes and labels, making it easier to spot key turning points and manage trades effectively.
Pivot Points removes the guesswork by automatically scanning for and confirming pivot points based on rigorous candlestick analysis.
Whether you're a day trader or a swing trader, Pivot Points provides actionable insights into market dynamics, helping you to better time entries and exits.
Equilibrium Range
Equilibrium Range Indicator
The Equilibrium Range Indicator is a powerful tool designed to assist traders in identifying key market equilibrium zones. By dynamically plotting ranges derived from critical market levels, this indicator provides actionable insights for trade entries, exits, and position management. It is particularly suited for traders who focus on intraday price action and rely on understanding market structure for decision-making.
How the Indicator Works
High-Timeframe Structural Equilibrium (Structural EQ)
This level is calculated by identifying the largest visible swing high and swing low on the 5-minute chart.
It represents the structural price equilibrium, where market sentiment is balanced between buyers and sellers.
Previous Day's Equilibrium (Historical EQ)
Derived from the midpoint of the previous day's high and low prices.
Acts as a historical reference point for potential support or resistance zones.
Dynamic Range Construction
The indicator combines the Structural EQ and the Historical EQ to create an Equilibrium Range.
This range is visually displayed on the chart as a transparent yellow rectangle, ensuring clear and immediate recognition.
Extension and Labeling
The equilibrium range extends infinitely to the right, keeping it relevant for ongoing price action.
A labeled "EQ Range" inside the rectangle ensures traders can quickly identify its purpose.
How to Use the Indicator
Consolidation Zones
The Equilibrium Range helps identify areas where price is likely to consolidate, aiding in avoiding trades during periods of low volatility.
Trade Entries and Exits
Use the upper and lower bounds of the range as guides for setting take-profit and stop-loss levels.
Ideal for scaling in and out of trades based on how price interacts with the range.
Market Sentiment and Breakouts
Observe how price behaves relative to the range:
Breakouts above the range may signal bullish momentum.
Breakouts below the range may indicate bearish trends.
Why It's Original
This indicator stands out by combining multiple concepts of equilibrium into a single, coherent visualization. Unlike traditional support/resistance indicators, the Equilibrium Range Indicator dynamically adapts to market structure while integrating historical context, providing traders with a unique perspective for analyzing price action.

EBL - Enigma BOS Logic Select Higher Time FrameThe "EBL – Enigma BOS Logic" is a unique multi-timeframe trading indicator designed for traders who rely on structured price action and key level retests to find high-probability trade opportunities. This indicator automates the identification of significant price levels on a higher timeframe, plots them across all lower timeframes, and provides actionable signals (buy/sell) when price retests those levels. It is ideal for traders who focus on lower timeframes for precise entries while using higher timeframe structure for trend confirmation.
How the Indicator Works
Key Level Detection:
The indicator allows the user to select a key level timeframe (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily, Weekly). It then identifies Break of Structure (BOS) levels on the selected timeframe.
When a bullish-to-bearish or bearish-to-bullish reversal is detected on the selected timeframe, the corresponding high or low of the reversal candle is stored as a key level.
These key levels are plotted as horizontal lines on all lower timeframes, helping the trader visualize critical support and resistance zones across multiple timeframes.
Retest Confirmation:
Once a key level is established, the indicator continuously monitors the price action on lower timeframes.
If the price touches or crosses a key level, it is considered a retest, and an alert is generated.
The indicator plots a retest marker (customizable as a circle or diamond) at the exact price level where the retest occurred, providing a clear visual cue for the trader.
Trading Signals:
When a retest is detected, a table is displayed on the chart with the following information:
The trading pair.
The signal direction (Buy/Sell).
The price at which the retest occurred.
This table gives traders instant insight into actionable opportunities, making it easier to focus on live market conditions without missing critical retests.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: The indicator focuses on a higher timeframe selected by the user, ensuring that only the most relevant key levels are plotted for lower timeframe trading.
Dynamic Retest Signals: It dynamically identifies when price retests a key level and provides both visual markers and real-time alerts.
Customizable Retest Markers: Users can customize the retest marker's shape (circle/diamond) and color to suit their preferences.
Signal Table: A built-in table displays clear buy or sell signals when retests occur, ensuring that traders have all the necessary information at a glance.
Alerts: The indicator supports real-time alerts for retests, helping traders stay informed even when they are not actively monitoring the chart.
How to Use the Indicator
Select a Key Level Timeframe:
In the input settings, choose a higher timeframe (e.g., 4H or Daily) to define key levels.
The indicator will calculate Break of Structure (BOS) levels on the selected timeframe and plot them as horizontal lines across all lower timeframes.
Monitor Lower Timeframes for Retests:
Switch to a lower timeframe (e.g., 15m, 5m) to wait for price to approach the key levels plotted by the indicator.
When a retest occurs, observe the signal table and retest marker for actionable trade signals.
Act on Buy/Sell Signals:
Use the information provided by the signal table to make trading decisions.
For a buy signal, wait for bullish confirmation (e.g., price holding above the retested level).
For a sell signal, wait for bearish confirmation (e.g., price holding below the retested level).
Trading Concepts and Underlying Logic
The indicator is based on the Break of Structure (BOS) concept, a core principle in price action trading. BOS levels represent points where the market shifts its trend direction, making them critical zones for potential reversals or continuations.
By focusing on higher timeframe BOS levels, the indicator helps traders align their lower timeframe entries with the overall market trend.
The concept of retests is used to confirm the validity of a key level. A retest occurs when the price returns to a previously identified BOS level, offering a high-probability entry point.
Use Cases
Scalping: Traders who prefer lower timeframe scalping can use the indicator to align their trades with higher timeframe key levels, increasing the likelihood of successful trades.
Swing Trading: Swing traders can use the indicator to identify key reversal zones on higher timeframes and plan their trades accordingly.
Intraday Trading: Intraday traders can benefit from the real-time alerts and signals generated by the indicator, ensuring they never miss critical retests during active trading hours.
Conclusion
The "EBL – Enigma BOS Logic" is a powerful tool for traders who want to enhance their price action trading by focusing on key levels and retests across multiple timeframes. By automating the identification of BOS levels and providing clear retest signals, it helps traders make more informed and confident trading decisions. Whether you are a scalper, intraday trader, or swing trader, this indicator offers valuable insights to improve your trading performance.

Market Structure V3Indicator Description:
The Market Structure indicator is a unique and innovative tool for identifying and visualizing key market structures based on dynamic swing highs and lows. This indicator stands apart from similar tools by utilizing a distinct methodology for updating levels and identifying trends, ensuring precision and flexibility in market analysis.
Key Features of Uniqueness:
1. No Fixed Lookback Periods for Extremum Detection:
- Unlike most indicators that rely on a predefined number of candles (lookback period) to determine highs or lows, this script dynamically updates levels based solely on price action.
- A new high (resistance) or low (support) is confirmed only when the closing price breaks above the previous high or below the previous low, representing the last significant extremums .
- This approach eliminates arbitrary lookback-based restrictions, allowing the indicator to adapt seamlessly to different market conditions and timeframes.
2. Dynamic Level Adjustments:
- Levels are recalculated and adjusted in real time as new price action unfolds, providing traders with highly accurate and relevant support and resistance levels.
- The upper and lower bounds serve as dynamic anchors for trend analysis, updating only when a confirmed breakout occurs.
3. Fractal and Trend-Driven Logic:
- The script inherently respects the fractal nature of price movements by focusing on confirmed breakouts of previous significant extremums , avoiding reliance on shorter-term noise.
- This makes the indicator particularly effective for identifying true trend reversals and continuations.
4. Visual Clarity and Structure Mapping:
- The indicator labels the following structural points directly on the chart:
- **Higher Highs (HH)** for uptrend confirmation.
- **Lower Highs (LH)** for potential trend weakening.
- **Lower Lows (LL)** for downtrend confirmation.
- **Higher Lows (HL)** for potential trend reversals.
- Levels and labels are updated dynamically and accurately reflect the market's structural evolution.
5. Clean and Noise-Free Analysis:
- The absence of arbitrary inputs (e.g., lookback periods) ensures the indicator focuses only on meaningful price action, reducing false signals.
- Works seamlessly across all instruments and timeframes without requiring constant parameter adjustments.
6. Highly Adaptable:
- Suitable for any financial market, including stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies.
- Performs equally well on all timeframes, from intraday to long-term analysis.
How the Indicator Works:
1. Dynamic Level Updates :
- The indicator evaluates price action in real time and identifies significant levels based on breakouts above previous highs or below previous lows.
- Upper Bound (Resistance) : Updated only when the closing price exceeds the previous significant high.
- Lower Bound (Support) : Updated only when the closing price falls below the previous significant low.
2. Trend Determination:
- Identifies and marks structural points (HH, LH, LL, HL) as trends develop.
- Swing points are updated dynamically without relying on fixed lookback parameters, ensuring that levels reflect the true market structure.
3. Confirmation Logic:
- The script uses a user-configurable parameter `Extremum confirmation bars count` to refine the process of confirming significant swing points.
- This ensures flexibility in adapting to different market conditions while maintaining precision in level detection.
Unique Advantages Over Similar Indicators:
1. No Arbitrary Inputs:
- Unlike other indicators that require users to set the number of candles for extremum detection, this script eliminates the need for such settings, relying solely on actual price breakouts.
2. Dynamic Real-Time Adjustments:
- The logic of level updates is event-driven (based on closing prices crossing key levels), making it more reactive and precise compared to static lookback-based calculations.
3. Enhanced Structural Clarity:
- Focuses exclusively on confirmed significant levels , avoiding clutter and ambiguity often seen in lookback-based indicators.
4. Fractal and Self-Adaptive Nature:
- The script inherently respects market fractality, making it effective across all timeframes and market conditions.
Practical Applications:
- Trend Identification:
Helps identify whether the market is in an uptrend, downtrend, or consolidation phase.
- Entry and Exit Points:
Use swing highs and lows as references for entering or exiting positions.
- Support and Resistance Levels:
Dynamic levels provide actionable areas for placing stop-losses and take-profits.
Input Parameters:
- Extremum Confirmation Bars Count:
Adjusts the sensitivity of extremum detection. The higher the value, the more conservative the indicator becomes in confirming levels. Default is `3`.
Chart Setup and Usage Notes:
1. Clean Visualization:
- Ensure a clean chart for better visibility of structural points and levels.
- Do not overlay with additional indicators unless explicitly required.
2. User Guidance:
- Combine this indicator with volume analysis or other confirmation tools to enhance decision-making.
