Jake's Candle by Candle UpgradedJake's Candle by Candle Upgraded
The "Story of the Market" Automated
This is not just another signal indicator. Jake's Candle by Candle Upgraded is a complete institutional trading framework designed for high-precision scalping on the 1-minute and 5-minute timeframes.
Built strictly on the principles of Al Brooks Price Action and Smart Money Concepts (SMC), this tool automates the rigorous "Candle-by-Candle" analysis used by professional floor traders. It moves beyond simple pattern recognition to read the "Story" of the market—Context, Setup, and Pressure—before ever allowing a trade.
The Philosophy: Why This Tool Was Built
Most retail traders fail for two reasons:
Getting Trapped: They enter on the first sign of a reversal (H1/L1), which is often an institutional trap.
Trading Chop: They bleed capital during low-volume, sideways markets.
This tool solves both problems with an Algorithmic Discipline Engine. It does not guess. It waits for the specific "Second Leg" criteria used by institutions and physically disables itself during dangerous market conditions.
Key Features
1. The Context Dashboard (HUD)
A professional Heads-Up Display in the top-right corner keeps you focused on the macro picture while you scalp.
FLOW: Monitors the 20-period Institutional EMA. (Green = Bull Flow, Red = Bear Flow). You are prevented from trading against the dominant trend.
STATE: A built-in "Volatility Compressor." If it says "⚠️ CHOP / RANGE", the algorithm is disabled. It protects you from overtrading during lunch hours or low-volume zones.
SETUP: Live tracking of the Al Brooks leg count. It tells you exactly when the algorithm is "Waiting for Pullback" or "Searching for Entry."
2. Smart "Trap Avoidance" Logic (H2/L2)
This tool uses the "Gold Standard" of scalping setups: The High 2 (H2) and Low 2 (L2).
It ignores the first breakout attempt (Leg 1), acknowledging it as a potential trap.
It waits for the pullback and only signals on the Second Leg, statistically increasing the probability of a successful trend resumption.
3. Volatility-Adaptive Risk Management
Stop calculating pips in your head. The moment a signal is valid, the tool draws your business plan on the chart:
Stop Loss (Red Line): Automatically placed behind the "Signal Bar" (the candle that created the setup) based on strict price action rules.
Take Profit (Green Line): Automatically projected at a 1.5 Risk-to-Reward Ratio.
Smart Adaptation: The targets expand and contract based on real-time market volatility. If the market is quiet, targets are tighter. If explosive, targets are wider.
4. The "Snap Entry" Signal
The BUY and SELL badges are not lagging. They are programmed with "Stop Entry" logic—appearing the exact moment price breaks the structure of the Signal Bar, ensuring you enter on momentum, not hope.
How to Trade Strategy
Check the HUD: Ensure FLOW matches your direction and STATE says "✅ VOLATILE".
Wait for the Badge: Do not front-run the tool. Wait for the BUY or SELL badge to print.
Set Your Orders: Once the signal candle closes:
Place your Stop Loss at the Red Line.
Place your Take Profit at the Green Line.
Walk Away: The trade is now a probability event. Let the math play out.

CryptoFlux Dynamo [JOAT]CryptoFlux Dynamo: Velocity Scalping Strategy
WHAT THIS STRATEGY IS
CryptoFlux Dynamo is an open-source Pine Script v6 strategy designed for momentum-based scalping on cryptocurrency perpetual futures. It combines multiple technical analysis methods into a unified system that adapts its behavior based on current market volatility conditions.
This script is published open-source so you can read, understand, and modify the complete logic. The description below explains everything the strategy does so that traders who cannot read Pine Script can fully understand how it works before using it.
HOW THIS STRATEGY IS ORIGINAL AND WHY THE INDICATORS ARE COMBINED
This strategy uses well-known indicators (MACD, EMA, RSI, MFI, Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channels, ATR). The originality is not in the individual indicators themselves, but in the specific way they are integrated into a regime-adaptive system. Here is the detailed justification for why these components are combined and how they work together:
The Problem Being Solved:
Standard indicator-based strategies use fixed thresholds. For example, a typical MACD strategy might enter when the histogram crosses above zero. However, in cryptocurrency markets, volatility changes dramatically throughout the day and week. A MACD crossover during a low-volatility consolidation period has very different implications than the same crossover during a high-volatility trending period. Using the same entry thresholds and stop distances in both conditions leads to either:
Too many false signals during consolidation (if thresholds are loose)
Missing valid opportunities during expansion (if thresholds are tight)
Stops that are too tight during volatility spikes (causing premature exits)
Stops that are too wide during compression (giving back profits)
The Solution Approach:
This strategy first classifies the current volatility regime using normalized ATR (ATR as a percentage of price), then dynamically adjusts ALL other parameters based on that classification. This creates a context-aware system rather than a static threshold comparison.
How Each Component Contributes to the System:
ATR-Based Regime Classification (The Foundation)
The strategy calculates ATR over 21 periods, smooths it with a 13-period EMA to reduce noise from wicks, then divides by price to get a normalized percentage. This ATR% is classified into three regimes:
- Compression (ATR% < 0.8%): Market is consolidating, breakouts are more likely but false signals are common
- Expansion (ATR% 0.8% - 1.6%): Normal trending conditions
- Velocity (ATR% > 1.6%): High volatility, larger moves but also larger adverse excursions
This regime classification then controls stop distances, profit targets, trailing stop offsets, and signal strength requirements. The regime acts as a "meta-parameter" that tunes the entire system.
EMA Ribbon (8/21/34) - Trend Structure Detection
The three EMAs establish trend direction and structure. When EMA 8 > EMA 21 > EMA 34, the trend structure is bullish. The slope of the middle EMA (21) is calculated over 8 bars and converted to degrees using arctangent. This slope measurement quantifies trend strength, not just direction.
Why these specific periods? The 8/21/34 sequence follows Fibonacci-like spacing and provides good separation on 5-minute cryptocurrency charts. The fast EMA (8) responds to immediate price action, the mid EMA (21) represents the short-term trend, and the slow EMA (34) acts as a trend filter.
The EMA ribbon works with the regime classification: during compression regimes, the strategy requires stronger ribbon alignment before entry because false breakouts are more common.
MACD (8/21/5) - Momentum Measurement
The MACD uses faster parameters (8/21/5) than the standard (12/26/9) because cryptocurrency markets move faster than traditional markets. The histogram is smoothed with a 5-period EMA to reduce noise.
The key innovation is the adaptive histogram baseline. Instead of using a fixed threshold, the strategy calculates a rolling baseline from the smoothed absolute histogram value, then multiplies by a sensitivity factor (1.15). This means the threshold for "significant momentum" automatically adjusts based on recent momentum levels.
The MACD works with the regime classification: during velocity regimes, the histogram baseline is effectively higher because recent momentum has been stronger, preventing entries on relatively weak momentum.
RSI (21 period) and MFI (21 period) - Independent Momentum Confirmation
RSI measures momentum using price changes only. MFI (Money Flow Index) measures momentum using price AND volume. By requiring both to confirm, the strategy filters out price moves that lack volume support.
The 21-period length is longer than typical (14) to reduce noise on 5-minute charts. The trigger threshold (55 for longs, 45 for shorts) is slightly offset from 50 to require momentum in the trade direction, not just neutral readings.
These indicators work together: a signal requires RSI > 55 AND MFI > 55 for longs. This dual confirmation reduces false signals from price manipulation or low-volume moves.
Bollinger Bands (1.5 mult) and Keltner Channels (1.8 mult) - Squeeze Detection
When Bollinger Bands contract inside Keltner Channels, volatility is compressing and a breakout is likely. This is the "squeeze" condition. When the bands expand back outside the channels, the squeeze "releases."
The strategy uses a 1.5 multiplier for Bollinger Bands (tighter than standard 2.0) and 1.8 for Keltner Channels. These values were chosen to identify meaningful squeezes on 5-minute cryptocurrency charts without triggering too frequently.
The squeeze detection works with the regime classification: squeeze releases during compression regimes receive additional signal strength points because breakouts from consolidation are more significant.
Volume Impulse Detection - Institutional Participation Filter
The strategy calculates a volume baseline (34-period SMA) and standard deviation. A "volume impulse" is detected when current volume exceeds the baseline by 1.15x OR when the volume z-score exceeds 0.5.
This filter ensures entries occur when there is meaningful market participation, not during low-volume periods where price moves are less reliable.
Volume impulse is required for all entries and adds points to the composite signal strength score.
Cycle Oscillator - Trend Alignment Filter
The strategy calculates a 55-period EMA as a cycle basis, then measures price deviation from this basis as a percentage. When price is more than 0.15% above the cycle basis, the cycle is bullish. When more than 0.15% below, the cycle is bearish.
This filter prevents counter-trend entries. Long signals require bullish cycle alignment; short signals require bearish cycle alignment.
BTC Dominance Filter (Optional) - Market Regime Filter
The strategy can optionally use BTC.D (Bitcoin Dominance) as a market regime filter. When BTC dominance is rising (slope > 0.12), the market is in "risk-off" mode and long entries on altcoins are filtered. When dominance is falling (slope < -0.12), short entries are filtered.
This filter is optional because the BTC.D data feed may lag during low-liquidity periods.
How The Components Work Together (The Mashup Justification):
The strategy uses a composite scoring system where each signal pathway contributes points:
Trend Break pathway (30 points): Requires EMA ribbon alignment + positive slope + price breaks above recent structure high
Momentum Surge pathway (30 points): Requires MACD histogram > adaptive baseline + MACD line > signal + RSI > 55 + MFI > 55 + volume impulse
Squeeze Release pathway (25 points): Requires BB inside KC (squeeze) then release + momentum bias + histogram confirmation
Micro Pullback pathway (15 points): Requires shallow retracement to fast EMA within established trend + histogram confirmation + volume impulse
Additional modifiers:
+5 points if volume impulse is present, -5 if absent
+5 points in velocity regime, -2 in compression regime
+5 points if cycle is aligned, -5 if counter-trend
A trade only executes when the composite score reaches the minimum threshold (default 55) AND all filters agree (session, cycle bias, BTC dominance if enabled).
This scoring system is the core innovation: instead of requiring ALL conditions to be true (which would generate very few signals) or ANY condition to be true (which would generate too many false signals), the strategy requires ENOUGH conditions to be true, with different conditions contributing different weights based on their reliability.
HOW THE STRATEGY CALCULATES ENTRIES AND EXITS
Entry Logic:
1. Calculate current volatility regime from ATR%
2. Calculate all indicator values (MACD, EMA, RSI, MFI, squeeze, volume)
3. Evaluate each signal pathway and sum points
4. Check all filters (session, cycle, dominance, kill switch)
5. If composite score >= 55 AND all filters pass, generate entry signal
6. Calculate position size based on risk per trade and regime-adjusted stop distance
7. Execute entry with regime name as comment
Position Sizing Formula:
RiskCapital = Equity * (0.65 / 100)
StopDistance = ATR * StopMultiplier(regime)
RawQuantity = RiskCapital / StopDistance
MaxQuantity = Equity * (12 / 100) / Price
Quantity = min(RawQuantity, MaxQuantity)
Quantity = round(Quantity / 0.001) * 0.001
This ensures each trade risks approximately 0.65% of equity regardless of volatility, while capping total exposure at 12% of equity.
Stop Loss Calculation:
Stop distance is ATR multiplied by a regime-specific multiplier:
Compression regime: 1.05x ATR (tighter stops because moves are smaller)
Expansion regime: 1.55x ATR (standard stops)
Velocity regime: 2.1x ATR (wider stops to avoid premature exits during volatility)
Take Profit Calculation:
Target distance is ATR multiplied by regime-specific multiplier and base risk/reward:
Compression regime: 1.6x ATR * 1.8 base R:R * 0.9 regime bonus = approximately 2.6x ATR
Expansion regime: 2.05x ATR * 1.8 base R:R * 1.0 regime bonus = approximately 3.7x ATR
Velocity regime: 2.8x ATR * 1.8 base R:R * 1.15 regime bonus = approximately 5.8x ATR
Trailing Stop Logic:
When adaptive trailing is enabled, the strategy calculates a trailing offset based on ATR and regime:
Compression regime: 1.1x base offset (looser trailing to avoid noise)
Expansion regime: 1.0x base offset (standard)
Velocity regime: 0.8x base offset (tighter trailing to lock in profits during fast moves)
The trailing stop only activates when it would be tighter than the initial stop.
Momentum Fail-Safe Exits:
The strategy closes positions early if momentum reverses:
Long positions close if MACD histogram turns negative OR EMA ribbon structure breaks (fast EMA crosses below mid EMA)
Short positions close if MACD histogram turns positive OR EMA ribbon structure breaks
This prevents holding through momentum reversals even if stop loss hasn't been hit.
Kill Switch:
If maximum drawdown exceeds 6.5%, the strategy disables new entries until manually reset. This prevents continued trading during adverse conditions.
HOW TO USE THIS STRATEGY
Step 1: Apply to Chart
Use a 5-minute chart of a high-liquidity cryptocurrency perpetual (BTC/USDT, ETH/USDT recommended)
Ensure at least 200 bars of history are loaded for indicator stabilization

Background Color: Shows current volatility regime
- Indigo/dark blue = Compression (low volatility)
- Purple = Expansion (normal volatility)
- Magenta/pink = Velocity (high volatility)
Bar Colors: Reflect signal strength divergence. Brighter colors indicate stronger directional bias.
Triangle Markers: Entry signals. Up triangles below bars = long entry. Down triangles above bars = short entry.
Dashboard (top-right): Real-time display of regime, ATR%, signal strengths, position status, stops, targets, and risk metrics.
Step 3: Interpret the Dashboard

Step 4: Adjust Parameters for Your Needs
For more conservative trading: Increase "Minimum Composite Signal Strength" to 65 or higher
For more aggressive trading: Decrease to 50 (but expect more false signals)
For higher timeframes (15m+): Increase "Structure Break Window" to 12-15, increase "RSI Momentum Trigger" to 58
For lower liquidity pairs: Increase "Volume Impulse Multiplier" to 1.3, increase slippage in strategy properties
To disable short selling: Uncheck "Enable Short Structure"
To disable BTC dominance filter: Uncheck "BTC Dominance Confirmation"
STRATEGY PROPERTIES (BACKTEST SETTINGS)
These are the exact settings used in the strategy's Properties dialog box. You must use these same settings when evaluating the backtest results shown in the publication:
Initial Capital: $100,000
Justification: This amount is higher than typical retail accounts. I chose this value to demonstrate percentage-based returns that scale proportionally. The strategy uses percentage-based position sizing (0.65% risk per trade), so a $10,000 account would see the same percentage returns with 10x smaller position sizes. The absolute dollar amounts in the backtest should be interpreted as percentages of capital.
Commission: 0.04% (commission_value = 0.04)
Justification: This reflects typical perpetual futures exchange fees. Major exchanges charge between 0.02% (maker) and 0.075% (taker). The 0.04% value is a reasonable middle estimate. If your exchange charges different fees, adjust this value accordingly. Higher fees will reduce net profitability.
Slippage: 1 tick
Justification: This is conservative for liquid pairs like BTC/USDT on major exchanges during normal conditions. For less liquid altcoins or during high volatility, actual slippage may be higher. If you trade less liquid pairs, increase this value to 2-3 ticks for more realistic results.
Pyramiding: 1
Justification: No position stacking. The strategy holds only one position at a time. This simplifies risk management and prevents overexposure.
calc_on_every_tick: true
Justification: The strategy evaluates on every price update, not just bar close. This is necessary for scalping timeframes where waiting for bar close would miss opportunities. Note that this setting means backtest results may differ slightly from bar-close-only evaluation.
calc_on_order_fills: true
Justification: The strategy recalculates immediately after order fills for faster response to position changes.
RISK PER TRADE JUSTIFICATION
The default risk per trade is 0.65% of equity. This is well within the TradingView guideline that "risking more than 5-10% on a trade is not typically considered viable."
With the 12% maximum exposure cap, even if the strategy takes multiple consecutive losses, the total risk remains manageable. The kill switch at 6.5% drawdown provides additional protection by halting new entries during adverse conditions.
The position sizing formula ensures that stop distance (which varies by regime) is accounted for, so actual risk per trade remains approximately 0.65% regardless of volatility conditions.
SAMPLE SIZE CONSIDERATIONS
For statistically meaningful backtest results, you should select a dataset that generates at least 100 trades. On 5-minute BTC/USDT charts, this typically requires:
2-3 months of data during normal market conditions
1-2 months during high-volatility periods
3-4 months during low-volatility consolidation periods
The strategy's selectivity (requiring 55+ composite score plus all filters) means it generates fewer signals than less filtered approaches. If your backtest shows fewer than 100 trades, extend the date range or reduce the minimum signal strength threshold.
Fewer than 100 trades produces statistically unreliable results. Win rate, profit factor, and other metrics can vary significantly with small sample sizes.
STRATEGY DESIGN COMPROMISES AND LIMITATIONS
Every strategy involves trade-offs. Here are the compromises made in this design and the limitations you should understand:
Selectivity vs. Opportunity Trade-off
The 55-point minimum threshold filters many potential trades. This reduces false signals but also misses valid setups that don't meet all criteria. Lowering the threshold increases trade frequency but decreases win rate. There is no "correct" threshold; it depends on your preference for fewer higher-quality signals vs. more signals with lower individual quality.
Regime Classification Lag
The ATR-based regime detection uses historical data (21 periods + 13-period smoothing). It cannot predict sudden volatility spikes. During flash crashes or black swan events, the strategy may be classified in the wrong regime for several bars before the classification updates. This is an inherent limitation of any lagging indicator.
Indicator Parameter Sensitivity
The default parameters (MACD 8/21/5, EMA 8/21/34, RSI 21, etc.) are tuned for BTC/ETH perpetuals on 5-minute charts during 2024 market conditions. Different assets, timeframes, or market regimes may require different parameters. There is no guarantee that parameters optimized on historical data will perform similarly in the future.
BTC Dominance Filter Limitations
The CRYPTOCAP:BTC.D data feed may lag during low-liquidity periods or weekends. The dominance slope calculation uses a 5-bar SMA, adding additional delay. If you notice the filter behaving unexpectedly, consider disabling it.
Backtest vs. Live Execution Differences
TradingView backtesting does not replicate actual broker execution. Key differences:
Backtests assume perfect fills at calculated prices; real execution involves order book depth, latency, and partial fills
The calc_on_every_tick setting improves backtest realism but still cannot capture sub-bar price action or order book dynamics
Commission and slippage settings are estimates; actual costs vary by exchange, time of day, and market conditions
Funding rates on perpetual futures are not modeled in backtests and can significantly impact profitability over time
Exchange-specific limitations (position limits, liquidation mechanics, order types) are not modeled
Market Condition Dependencies
This strategy is designed for trending and breakout conditions. During extended sideways consolidation with no clear direction, the strategy may generate few signals or experience whipsaws. No strategy performs well in all market conditions.
Cryptocurrency-Specific Risks
Cryptocurrency markets operate 24/7 without session boundaries. This means:
No natural "overnight" risk reduction
Volatility can spike at any time
Liquidity varies significantly by time of day
Exchange outages or issues can occur at any time
WHAT THIS STRATEGY DOES NOT DO
To be straightforward about limitations:
This strategy does not guarantee profits. Past backtest performance does not indicate future results.
This strategy does not predict the future. It reacts to current conditions based on historical patterns.
This strategy does not account for funding rates, which can significantly impact perpetual futures profitability.
This strategy does not model exchange-specific execution issues (partial fills, requotes, outages).
This strategy does not adapt to fundamental news events or black swan scenarios.
This strategy is not optimized for all market conditions. It may underperform during extended consolidation.
IMPORTANT RISK WARNINGS
Past performance does not guarantee future results. The backtest results shown reflect specific historical market conditions and parameter settings. Markets change constantly, and strategies that performed well historically may underperform or lose money in the future. A single backtest run does not constitute proof of future profitability.
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Cryptocurrency derivatives are highly volatile instruments. You can lose your entire investment. Only trade with capital you can afford to lose completely.

EMA RSI Adaptive (v6) [Joy]I have taken Glaz's code and converted to V6. The main logic is not mine but taken from Glaz's code
The EMA RSI Adaptive indicator smooths price with an EMA whose speed adjusts to RSI’s distance from its midpoint (50). When RSI strays far from 50 (higher momentum/volatility), the effective EMA period shrinks so the line hugs price. When RSI stays near 50 (quieter conditions), the period lengthens to filter noise. The target of the EMA update is an SMA of price (matching the original design), so you get a smoothed, adaptive trend line rather than a raw EMA of closes.
Key mechanics (what’s happening under the hood):
RSI distance: |RSI - 50| + 1 measures how “charged” momentum is. Bigger distance → faster adaptation.
Dynamic period: a nonlinear mapping turns that RSI distance into an adjusted smoothing length.
Adaptive EMA: ema = emaPrev + alpha * (SMA - emaPrev), where alpha = 2 / (1 + dynamicPeriod).
Visuals: optional color shift—blue when the line is rising, magenta when falling.
Practical use:
Trend filter: rising line = bullish bias; falling line = bearish bias.
Pullback tool: in trends, price tags or minor pierces of the adaptive line can mark pullback zones.
Volatility-aware: it tightens in fast moves (tracks closer) and relaxes in chop (filters more).
On very low timeframes or illiquid symbols, expect more whipsaw; lengthen the base EMA or RSI period to calm it.
The color toggle is cosmetic; the adaptive line itself carries the signal.
BHUVANA Fib 50/61.8 Stairs with RR Targets Fib 50–61.8 Stairs with RR Targets (debug) automatically tracks the latest swing and draws a 50%–61.8% Fibonacci pullback zone as step-like “stairs.” From that zone it plots a planned trade framework: entry reference, stop/invalidation, and multiple Risk:Reward targets (e.g., 1R/1.5R/2R/3R).
What it’s for
Visualize the “buy/sell pullback” area (50–61.8) in trending moves
Standardize exits with RR targets instead of guessing
Quickly see when the swing/zone updates as structure changes
How to use (simple)
Wait for a clear impulse swing to form.
Let price retrace into the 50–61.8 zone.
Take entries only with your own trigger (reclaim / rejection / BOS).
Use the plotted stop and RR targets for management.
Inputs
Swing detection / lookback
RR multiples and target count
Show/hide stairs, labels, debug visuals
Important
This is a mapping tool, not a standalone signal. If you trade every touch of 50–61.8 without confirmation, you’ll get chopped. Debug version may show extra visuals and can repaint on swing updates. Not financial advice.

Multi-Stochastic Rotation & Momentum Scalping Framework
JK Scalp is a rule-based momentum and rotation oscillator designed for short-term scalping and intraday execution.
It focuses on how momentum rotates across multiple stochastic speeds, instead of relying on a single oscillator or lagging averages.
This is an execution aid, not a predictive indicator.
🧠 Concept & Originality
Unlike standard stochastic tools, JK Scalp uses four synchronized stochastic layers:
• Fast (9,3) → execution timing
• Medium (14,3) → structure confirmation
• Slow (44,3) → swing context
• Trend (60,10,10) → dominant momentum regime
The core idea is quad-rotation:
High-probability trades occur when all momentum layers rotate together after reaching an extreme.
This script combines:
• Momentum rotation
• Divergence logic
• Flag continuation logic
• Trend-state filtering
into a single cohesive framework, not a simple indicator mashup.
📊 How to Use (Step-by-Step)
1️⃣ Best Timeframes
• Scalping: 1m – 3m
• Intraday: 5m – 15m
• Avoid higher timeframes (not designed for swing holding)
Works best on:
• Index options
• Index futures
• Highly liquid stocks
• Crypto majors
2️⃣ Understanding the Signals
🔁 Quad Rotation (Core Signal)
A valid rotation requires:
• Fast, Medium, Slow, and Trend stochastic moving in the same direction
• Momentum exiting Overbought / Oversold zones
• Trend stochastic supporting the move
This filters out random oscillator noise.
3️⃣ Entry Conditions
🟢 LONG Setup
• Bullish quad rotation
• Either:
– Bullish divergence OR
– Bullish flag pullback
• Fast stochastic turning up
🔴 SHORT Setup
• Bearish quad rotation
• Either:
– Bearish divergence OR
– Bearish flag pullback
• Fast stochastic turning down
⚠️ Signals are confirmation-based, not anticipatory.
4️⃣ SUPER LONG / SUPER SHORT
These appear only when:
• Quad rotation
• Divergence confirmation
They represent high-confidence momentum inflection zones, not guaranteed reversals.
5️⃣ Stop-Loss Visualization
Optional SL zones are plotted using:
• Recent swing high / low
• ATR-based buffer (configurable)
This helps traders visualize risk, not automate exits.
🎨 Visual System (Why It Looks Different)
• Multi-layer glow effects → momentum strength
• Dynamic cloud → fast vs trend dominance
• Color-shifting fast line → acceleration vs decay
• Chart overlays → execution clarity without clutter
Everything is designed for speed and readability during live trading.
⭐ Unique Selling Points (USP)
✅ Multi-speed stochastic rotation (not single-line signals)
✅ Context-first, not signal spam
✅ Built-in divergence + continuation logic
✅ Non-repainting logic
✅ Designed for scalpers, not hindsight analysis
✅ Works across indices, options, crypto, and futures
⚠️ Important Notes
• Not a standalone trading system
• Best combined with:
– Market structure
– Key levels
– Session timing
• Avoid low-liquidity or news-spike candles
This indicator guides execution, it does not replace discretion.
👤 Who This Is For
• Scalpers & intraday traders
• Options traders needing precise timing
• Traders who understand momentum & structure
• Users who want fewer but higher-quality signals
🏁 Summary
JK Scalp helps you trade momentum rotation, not overbought/oversold myths.
Wait for alignment. Execute with discipline.
Ichimoku Trading Checklist - 5 Rules🧠 Description
This indicator implements a rule-based checklist built on Ichimoku Kinko Hyo, complemented with RSI and price structure, designed to help traders objectively evaluate whether a bullish setup is valid or not.
⚠️ This indicator does NOT generate buy or sell signals.
⚠️ It is NOT a trading system or financial advice.
The core philosophy is discipline and consistency:
If there is no setup, there is no trade.
________________________________________
✅ The 5 Rules Evaluated
1. Chikou Span above price (26 bars back)
Confirms that current price is above historical price, validating a bullish context.
2. Bullish TK Cross (Tenkan-sen > Kijun-sen)
Measures bullish momentum within the Ichimoku framework.
3. Bullish divergence or convergence between RSI and price
Evaluates relative strength using recent RSI pivots and price structure.
4. Kumo breakout followed by a valid pullback
Requires a bullish cloud breakout and a pullback that respects the structure.
5. Bullish Kumo (green cloud / twist)
Confirms that the Ichimoku cloud supports a bullish bias.
________________________________________
🚦 Decision Traffic Light (Final Row)
The last row of the table provides a traffic-light style summary:
• 🟢 5/5 rules met → Valid setup
• 🟡 1–4 rules met → Incomplete setup
• 🔴 0 rules met → No trade
Core message displayed: “No setup, No trade!” 🚫
________________________________________
🎨 Customization
Through the Inputs panel, users can customize:
• Header, body, and footer background colors
• Traffic-light colors and icons (🟢 🟡 🔴)
• Text alignment (left / center / right)
• Optional rule counter (x/5)
⚠️ Tables do not use TradingView’s Style tab; all customization is handled via Inputs.
________________________________________
⏱️ Timeframe
The indicator is timeframe-agnostic, but it was designed and tested primarily on the 1H timeframe, where Ichimoku and RSI structure tend to be more consistent.
________________________________________

Trend Vector Pro v2.0Trend Vector Pro v2.0
👨💻 Developed by: Mohammed Bedaiwi
💡 Strategy Overview & Coherence
Trend Vector Pro (TVPro) is a momentum-based trend & reversal strategy that uses a custom smoothed oscillator, an optional ADX filter, and classic Pivot Points to create a single, coherent trading framework.
Instead of stacking random indicators, TVPro is built around these integrated components:
A custom momentum engine (signal generation)
An optional ADX filter (trend quality control)
Daily Pivot Points (context, targets & S/R)
Swing-based “Golden Bar” trailing stops (trade management)
Optional extended bar detection (overextension alerts)
All parts are designed to work together and are documented below to address originality & usefulness requirements.
🔍 Core Components & Justification
1. Custom Momentum Engine (Main Signal Source)
TVPro’s engine is a custom oscillator derived from the bar midpoint ( hl2 ), similar in spirit to the Awesome Oscillator but adapted and fully integrated into the strategy. It measures velocity and acceleration of price, letting the script distinguish between strong impulses, weakening trends, and pure noise.
2. ADX Filter (Trend Strength Validation – Optional)
Uses Average Directional Index (ADX) as a gatekeeper.
Why this matters: This prevents the strategy from firing signals in choppy, non-trending environments (when ADX is below the threshold) and keeps trades focused on periods of clear directional strength.
3. Classic Pivot Points (Context & Targets)
Calculates Daily Pivot Points ( PP, R1-R3, S1-S3 ) via request.security() using prior session data.
Why this matters: Momentum gives the signal, ADX validates the environment, and Pivots add external structure for risk and target planning. This is a designed interaction, not a random mashup.
🧭 Trend State Logic (5-State Bar Coloring)
The strategy uses the momentum's value + slope to define five states, turning the chart into a visual momentum map:
🟢 STRONG BULL (Bright Green): Momentum accelerating UP. → Strong upside impulse.
🌲 WEAK BULL (Dark Green): Momentum decelerating DOWN (while positive). → Pullback/pause zone.
🔴 STRONG BEAR (Bright Red): Momentum accelerating DOWN. → Strong downside impulse.
🍷 WEAK BEAR (Dark Red): Momentum decelerating UP (while negative). → Rally/short-covering zone.
🔵 NEUTRAL / CHOP (Cyan): Momentum is near zero (based on noise threshold). → Consolidation / low volatility.
🎯 Signal Logic Modes
TVPro provides two selectable entry styles, controlled by input:
Reversals Only (Cleaner Mode – Default): Targets trend flips. Entry triggers when the current state is Bullish (or Bearish) and the previous state was not. This reduces noise and over-trading.
All Strong Pulses (Aggressive Mode): Targets acceleration phases. Entry triggers when the bar turns to STRONG BULL or STRONG BEAR after any other state. This mode produces more trades.
📌 Risk Management Tools
🟡 Golden Bars – Trailing Stops: Yellow “Trail” Arrows mark confirmed Swing Highs/Lows. These are used as logical trailing stop levels based on market structure.
Extended Bars: Detects when price closes outside a 2-standard-deviation channel, flagging overextension where a pullback is more likely.
Pivot Points: Used as external targets for Take Profit and structural stop placement.
⚙️ Strategy Defaults (Crucial for Publication Compliance)
To keep backtest results realistic and in line with House Rules, TVPro is published with the following fixed default settings:
Order Size: 5% of equity per trade ( default_qty_value = 5 )
Commission: 0.04% per order ( commission_value = 0.04 )
Slippage: 2 ticks ( slippage = 2 )
Initial Capital: 10,000
📘 How to Trade with Trend Vector Pro
Entry: Take Long when a Long signal appears and confirm the bar is Green (Bull state). Short for Red (Bear state).
Stop Loss: Place the initial SL near the latest swing High/Low, or near a relevant Pivot level.
Trade Management: Follow Golden (Trail) Arrows to trail your stop behind structure.
Exits: Exit when: the trailing stop is hit, Price reaches a major Pivot level, or an opposite signal prints.

Silver 30m HUD — Trend / Flow / PB / VWAP / TurboSilver 30m HUD is a streamlined Pine Script v5 indicator optimized exclusively for 30-minute silver futures (SIL) charts on TradingView. It displays a compact 2-column middle-right table analyzing trend, flow, momentum, pullback, VWAP, turbo, and final signals with safety stars and risk warnings. Enforces 30m timeframe usage via label alert on other periods.
Key Engines
Trend Fusion
Combines 30m (close vs SMA60) with 2H higher timeframe for UP/DOWN/FLAT consensus; MIXED on divergence. Serves as primary directional filter.
Flow Detection
Identifies volume surges (>2.2x 20-period SMA) as BULL/BEAR SURGE, else defaults to candle direction (UP/DOWN). Captures aggressive buying/selling pressure.
Momentum Composite
QQE/RSI/MFI blend: both >55 = UP, both <45 = DOWN, otherwise EXHAUST. Flags overextended moves.
Pullback Safety
Rates position vs SMA20/50: above both = OK, above 20 but below 50 = Weak, below both = Danger. Prevents chasing extended trends.
VWAP & Turbo
Price vs session VWAP (UP/DOWN); turbo flags >1% candle moves as UP/DOWN acceleration or EXHAUST.
Signals & Risk
Final Signal Logic
BUY requires UP trend + OK PB + UP VWAP + no DOWN mom; SELL needs DOWN trend + non-OK PB + DOWN VWAP; EXHAUST mom = CHOP; else WAIT.
Safety Ratings
BUY stars: 5🟩 (perfect confluence), 3🟩 (basic BUY); SELL: 4🟥 (full signal), 3🟥 (exhaustion).
Risk Alert
Triggers ⚠️ on BUY signals with 2H DOWN trend and <0.20 from resistance (distR), warning multi-timeframe conflict + overhead supply. Displays S/R levels and distances in mintick format.
HUD Layout
12-row table prioritizes scannability: metrics left (gray), statuses right (color-coded green/red/gray), bottom shows Dist to R/S, levels, and RISK. Ideal for quick 30m SIL scalping decisions balancing confluence and safety.
⭐ Silver HUD v15.1 — Full Notes Version (3-Column HUD)Silver HUD v15.1 is a comprehensive Pine Script v5 indicator designed for micro silver futures (SIL) trading on TradingView. It overlays a 3-column HUD table displaying real-time analysis across multiple engines including trend, flow, momentum, pullback, turbo (breakout), divergence, volume, and 2H structure. The system generates weighted BUY/SELL scores and final signals with risk warnings, optimized for 5m charts with 30m support/resistance levels.
Core Components
Support/Resistance & Trade Levels
Pulls 30m lowest low (support) and highest high (resistance) for entry/stop/TP calculation. Entry defaults to support, stop loss at support - 0.10, with ATR-based TPs (1x/2x/3x). Risk per lot factors SIL contract specs (1000oz, $5/tick). Alerts when price nears support within 0.05.
Multi-Engine Analysis
TREND: EMA20/50 + VWAP direction (UP/DOWN/MIXED).
FLOW: CCIOBV (CCI+OBV) + QQE momentum sync.
MOMENTUM: RSI/MFI >55 (UP) or <45 (DOWN).
PB (Pullback): EMA20 deviation (-0.4% to +1.2% = OK; flags CHASE/DEEP).
TURBO: ATR percentile + BB width squeeze for BREAKOUT/EXHAUST.
Scores weight flow (30%), momentum (25%), PB (25%), trend/turbo (10-20%). BUY ≥75, SELL ≥72 triggers raw signals.
Advanced Features
2H Structure: Detects HH/HL/LL/LH swings for macro bias (UP/DOWN/MIXED).
SELL System: Distinguishes SELL-ALERT (exhaustion) vs full SELL-REVERSAL (multi-condition bear flip).
Divergence & Volume: RSI-based bear/bull div on swing highs/lows; surge detection (>2x vol MA or 80th percentile).
Final Signal: Combines raw scores with filters (no DEEP PB for BUY, 2H tiebreaker); RISK flags conflicts like div or trend mismatches.
HUD Display & Usage
Renders a bottom-right table with metric, status (color-coded), and Chinese explanations. Stars rate scores (★★★★★=90+). Ideal for high-frequency SIL traders monitoring multi-timeframe confluence on 5m charts.
DarkPool FlowDarkPool Flow is a professional-grade technical analysis tool designed to align retail traders with the dominant "smart money" flow. Unlike standard moving average crossovers that often generate false signals during consolidation, this script employs a multi-layered filtering engine to isolate high-probability trends.
The core philosophy of this indicator is that Trends are fractal. A sustainable move on a lower timeframe must be supported by momentum on a higher timeframe. By comparing a "Fast Signal Trend" against a "Slow Anchor Trend" (e.g., Daily vs. Weekly), the script identifies the market bias used by institutional algorithms.
This edition features a Smart Recovery Engine, ensuring that valid trends are not missed simply because momentum started slowly, and a Dynamic Cloud that visually represents the strength of the trend spread.
Key Features
1. Auto-Adaptive Timeframe Logic
The script eliminates the guesswork of Multi-Timeframe (MTF) selection. By enabling "Auto-Adapt," the indicator detects your current chart timeframe and automatically maps it to the mathematically correct institutional pairings:
Scalping (<15m): Uses 15-Minute Trend vs. 1-Hour Anchor.
Day Trading (15m - 1H): Uses 4-Hour Trend vs. Daily Anchor.
Swing Trading (4H - Daily): Uses Daily Trend vs. Weekly Anchor (The classic "Golden" setup).
Investing (Weekly): Uses 21-Week EMA vs. 50-Week SMA (Bull Market Support Band logic).
2. Smart Recovery Signal Engine
Standard crossover scripts often miss major moves if the specific breakout candle has low volume or weak ADX. This script utilizes a state-machine logic that "remembers" the trend direction. If a trend begins during low volatility (gray candles), the script waits. The moment volatility and momentum confirm the move, a Smart Recovery Signal is triggered, allowing you to enter an existing trend safely.
3. Chop Protection (Gray Candles)
Preservation of capital is the priority. The script analyzes the Average Directional Index (ADX) and Volatility (ATR).
Colored Candles (Green/Red): The market is trending with sufficient strength. Trading is permitted.
Gray Candles: The market is in a low-energy chop or consolidation (ADX < 20). Trading is discouraged.
4. Dynamic Trend Cloud
The space between the Fast and Slow trends is filled with a dynamic cloud.
Darker/Opaque Cloud: Indicates a widening spread, suggesting accelerating momentum.
Lighter/Transparent Cloud: Indicates a narrowing spread, suggesting the trend may be weakening or consolidating.
5. Pullback & Retest Signals (+)
While triangles mark the start of a trend, the Plus (+) signs mark low-risk opportunities to add to a position. These appear when price dips into the cloud, finds support at the "Fair Value" zone, and closes back in the direction of the trend with confirmed momentum.
User Guide & Strategy
Setup
Add the indicator to your chart.
For Beginners: Enable "Auto-Adaptive Timeframes" in the settings.
For Advanced Users: Disable Auto-Adapt and manually configure your Fast/Slow pairings (Default is Daily 50 EMA / Weekly 50 EMA).
Signal Mode: Choose "First Breakout Only" for a cleaner chart, or "All Signals" if you wish to see re-entry points during choppy starts.
Long Entry Criteria (Buy)
Trend: The Cloud must be Green (Fast Trend > Slow Trend).
Signal: A Green Triangle appears below the bar.
Confirmation: The signal candle must not be Gray.
Re-Entry: A small Green (+) sign appears, indicating a successful test of the cloud support.
Short Entry Criteria (Sell)
Trend: The Cloud must be Red (Fast Trend < Slow Trend).
Signal: A Red Triangle appears above the bar.
Confirmation: The signal candle must not be Gray.
Re-Entry: A small Red (+) sign appears, indicating a successful test of the cloud resistance.
Stop Loss & Risk Management
Stop Loss: A standard institutional stop loss is placed just beyond the Slow Trend Line (the outer edge of the cloud). If price closes beyond the Slow Trend, the macro thesis is invalid.
Take Profit: Target liquidity pools or use a trailing stop based on the Fast Trend line.
Settings Overview
Mode Selection: Toggle between Auto-Adaptive logic or Manual control.
Manual Configuration: Define the specific Timeframe, Length, and Type (EMA, SMA, WMA) for both Fast and Slow trends.
Signal Logic: Toggle "Show Pullback Signals" on/off. Switch between "First Breakout" or "All Signals."
Quality Filters: Toggle individual filters (ATR, RSI, ADX) to adjust sensitivity. Turning these off makes the script more responsive but increases false signals.
Visual Style: Customize colors for Bullish, Bearish, and Neutral (Gray) states. Adjust cloud transparency.

Fibonacci Zones and RejectionsThis tool combines swing structure, Fibonacci retracements and candle-wick rejection logic to highlight high-probability reversal or continuation zones.
What it does
Tracks market structure automatically
Detects swing highs and swing lows based on a user-defined Structure Period.
Marks bullish shifts in structure and bearish shifts with CHoCH labels and Break of Structure (BoS) lines.
Optionally draws a dotted swing trend line between the active swing high and swing low and can show price labels at those swing points.
Draws dynamic Fibonacci retracements on the latest swing
Automatically anchors a Fibonacci retracement between the current swing high and swing low.
Lets you enable/disable individual Fibonacci levels and customize their values, colors and line width.
Can extend Fib levels forward to the latest bar and optionally keep previous Fib structures on the chart for context.
Optionally fills the “Golden Zone” (by default the first two levels, e.g. 0.50 and 0.618) so the core pullback area is visually obvious.
Defines an OTE / “Gold Zone” band from the active Fib levels
Uses the first two Fib lines (by default 0.50 and 0.618 or set another zone such as 61.8% to 78.6%) to form a live “Optimal Trade Entry” band.
Continuously updates this band as new structure forms and swings develop.
Detects rejection candles inside the Fib OTE band
Breaks each candle into upper wick, lower wick, body and total range.
A bullish rejection is a candle where:
Price trades into the OTE band,
The lower wick is a large portion of the bar’s range, and
The body is not tiny (minimum body-to-range ratio is configurable).
A bearish rejection is the mirror condition using the upper wick.
Only candles whose range overlaps the OTE band are considered; this filters for true reactions to the Fib zone.
Plots clear signals and alerts
Bullish OTE rejection is plotted as a large cross at the low of the candle.
Bearish OTE rejection is plotted as a large cross at the high of the candle.
Built-in alertcondition calls allow you to set alerts for:
Bullish OTE Rejection
Bearish OTE Rejection
Optional “debug” markers can show all raw rejection candles and all bars that sit inside the OTE band, to help you understand how the logic behaves.
Use cases
Identify pullback entries into the desired Fib zone after a clear structural move.
Confirm reversals or continuations using wick-based rejection inside a pre-defined Fib discount/premium zone.
Combine with your own higher-timeframe bias or ICT / SMC tools to refine entry timing around key levels.
OK A+ Setup Scanner + Score PanelOK A+ Setup Scanner (0–8 Score with Real-Time Panel)

Fibonacci Retrace + 50 EMA Hariss 369This indicator combines 3 concepts:
Fibonacci retracement zones
50 EMA trend filter
Price interaction with specific Fib zones to generate Buy/Sell signals
Let’s break everything down in simple language.
1. Fibonacci Retracement Logic
The script finds:
Most recent swing high
Most recent swing low
Using these two points, it draws Fibonacci levels:
Fibonacci Levels Used
Level Meaning Calculation
0% Swing Low recentLow
38.2% Light retracement high - (range × 0.382)
50% Mid retracement high - (range × 0.50)
61.8% Deep retracement high - (range × 0.618)
100% Swing High recentHigh
🔍 Why only these levels?
Because trading signals are generated based ONLY on:38.2%, 50%,61.8%
These 3 levels define the golden retracement zones.
2. Trend Filter — 50 EMA
A powerful rule:
Trend Up (bullish)
➡️ Price > 50 EMA
Trend Down (bearish)
➡️ Price < 50 EMA
This prevents signals against the main trend.
3. BUY Conditions (Retracement + EMA)
A BUY signal appears when:
Price is above the 50 EMA (trend is up)
Price retraces into the BUY ZONE:
🔵 BUY ZONE = between 50% and 38.2% Fibonacci i.e.,close >= Fib50 AND close <= Fib38.2
This means:
Market is trending up
Price corrected to a healthy retracement level
Buyers are stepping back in
📘 Why this zone?
This is a moderate retracement (not too shallow, not too deep).
Smart money often enters at 38.2%–50% in a strong trend.
📘 BUY Signal Appears With:
Green “BUY” label
Green arrow below the candle
4. SELL Conditions (Retracement + EMA)
A SELL signal appears when:
Price is below the 50 EMA (trend is down)
Price retraces upward into the SELL ZONE:
🔴 SELL ZONE = between 50% and 61.8% Fibonacci i.e.,close <= Fib50 AND close >= Fib61.8
This means:
Market is trending down
Price made a pullback
Sellers regain control in the golden zone
📘 Why this zone?
50–61.8 retracement is the ideal bearish pullback level.
📘 SELL Signal Appears With:
Red “SELL” label
Red arrow above the candle
5. STOP-LOSS (SL) RULES
For BUY trades,
Place SL below 61.8% level.SL = Fib 61.8%
OR
more safe:SL = swing low (Fib 0%)
For SELL trades
Place SL above 38.2% level.SL = Fib 38.2%
OR conservative:
SL = swing high (Fib 100%)
6. TAKE-PROFIT (TP) RULES
Based on common Fibonacci extensions.
BUY Trade TP Options
TP Level Meaning
TP1 Return to 38.2% Quick scalping target
TP2 Return to swing high Full trend target
TP3 Breakout above swing high Trend continuation
Practical suggestion:
TP1 = 1× risk
TP2 = 2× risk
TP3 = trailing stop
SELL Trade TP Options
TP Level Meaning
TP1 Return to 61.8% Moderate bounce
TP2 Return to swing low Trend target
TP3 Break below swing low Trend continuation
7. Recommended Trading Plan (Simple)
BUY PLAN
Price > 50 EMA (uptrend)
Enter at BUY signal in 38.2–50% zone
SL at 61.8%
TP at swing high or structure break
SELL PLAN
Price < 50 EMA (downtrend)
Enter at SELL signal in 50–61.8% zone
SL above 38.2%
TP at swing low
🟩 Summary (Very Easy to Remember)
🔵 BUY
Trend: above 50 EMA
Zone: between 50% and 38.2%
SL: below 61.8%
TP: swing high
🔴 SELL
Trend: below 50 EMA
Zone: between 50% and 61.8%
SL: above 38.2%
TP: swing low

## Trading R2G (Long Setup)
### Entry Checklist
- Stock opened RED (below prior close)
- R2G cross signal triggered (green triangle)
- Volume confirmation (1.5x+ preferred, 2x+ ideal)
- Price holding above prior close
- Overall market not tanking
### Entry Method
1. **Aggressive:** Enter immediately on R2G cross
2. **Conservative:** Wait for pullback to prior close (now support)
### Stop Loss
- Below the R2G cross candle low
- OR below prior close (tighter)
### Target
- Prior day high (first target)
- 2:1 risk-reward minimum
---
## Trading G2R (Short Setup)
### Entry Checklist
- Stock opened GREEN (above prior close)
- G2R cross signal triggered (red triangle)
- Volume confirmation
- Price staying below prior close
- Overall market not ripping
### Entry Method
1. **Aggressive:** Enter immediately on G2R cross
2. **Conservative:** Wait for bounce to prior close (now resistance)
### Stop Loss
- Above the G2R cross candle high
- OR above prior close (tighter)
### Target
- Prior day low (first target)
- Gap fill (if gapped up)
---
## Signal Quality
### High Quality R2G ✓
- Opened significantly red (-2% or more)
- Strong volume on cross (2x+)
- First R2G of the day
- Market trending up
- News catalyst present
### Low Quality R2G ✗
- Opened barely red (-0.5%)
- Low volume cross
- Multiple R2G/G2R already today (choppy)
- Fighting market direction
- No clear catalyst
---
## Common Patterns
### Clean R2G (Best)
```
Open red → Steady climb → Cross prior close → Continue higher
```
### Failed R2G (Avoid/Exit)
```
Open red → Cross to green → Immediately fail back to red
```
### Choppy R2G/G2R (Avoid)
```
Multiple crosses back and forth = Indecision, no clear direction
```
---
## First Cross Rule
**The FIRST R2G or G2R of the day is usually the most significant.**
Why?
- Catches traders off guard
- Largest reaction from market
- Sets tone for rest of day
If you miss the first cross, be more selective on subsequent crosses.
---
## Volume Guide
| Rel Volume | Quality | Action |
|------------|---------|--------|
| < 1.0x | Weak | Skip or small size |
| 1.0-1.5x | Average | Standard position |

2. Condition: R2G/G2R Tracker
3. Select alert type
4. Set notification method
---
## Combining with Other Indicators
| Indicator | How to Use |
|-----------|------------|
| **Gap & Go** | R2G on gap-down stock = strong reversal |
| **Bull Flag** | Look for bull flag after R2G confirmation |
| **Float Rotation** | R2G + high rotation = explosive potential |
| **VWAP** | R2G above VWAP = strongest setup |
---
## Common Mistakes
❌ **Chasing late R2G**
- If price is already 3-5% green, you missed the move
- Wait for pullback or next setup
❌ **Ignoring volume**
- Low volume R2G often fails
- Always check relative volume
❌ **Fighting the market**
- R2G in a tanking market often fails
- G2R in a ripping market often fails
❌ **No stop loss**
- Failed R2G can reverse hard
- Always have a defined stop
❌ **Overtrading choppy stocks**
- Multiple R2G/G2R = no clear direction
- Skip stocks that keep crossing back and forth
---
## Quick Decision Framework
```
1. Did it open opposite color? (Red for R2G, Green for G2R)
- NO → Lower probability, be cautious
