FCPO MASTER v6 – Sideway + Breakout + OB + FVG (TUPLE SAFE)TL;DR cepat
1. Gunakan M5 untuk entry & OB/FVG confirmation.
2. Gunakan M15 untuk confirm trend/false breakout.
3. Gunakan H1 untuk bias arah (overall market).
4. Entry hanya bila signal + OB/FVG/candle rejection (script buatkan).
5. SL 5–8 tick, TP 10–25 tick ikut setup (sideway vs breakout).
6. Follow checklist setiap trade — jangan lompat.
________________________________________
Setup awal (1–2 min)
1. Pasang script FCPO Sideway MASTER – OB + Imbalance + Confirmation di TradingView.
2. Timeframes: buka M5, M15, H1 (susun 3 chart atau 1 chart multi-timeframe).
3. Input default: ATR14, Breakout Buffer 5 tick, RangeLen 20, ADX14, TP12, SL8. (Kau boleh tweak nanti).
4. Aktifkan alerts pada BUY Confirm / SELL Confirm / Sideway Buy / Sideway Sell.
________________________________________
Step-by-step trading process
1) Mulakan dengan H1 — tentukan bias HTF
• Lihat H1 untuk jawapan: Trend Up / Down / Sideway.
• Rule ringkas:
o ADX H1 > 20 + price above H1 EMA → bias Bull
o ADX H1 > 20 + price below H1 EMA → bias Bear
o ADX H1 < 20 → market HTF sideway (no strong bias)
Kenapa: H1 bagi kau idea “kalau breakout pada M5, patut follow atau tolak”.
________________________________________
2) Pergi ke M15 — confirm trend & valid breakout
• M15 kena setuju dengan idea breakout.
o Untuk strong breakout: M15 kena tunjuk candle close di atas/bawah range + volume naik.
o Kalau M5 breakout tapi M15 tak setuju (M15 masih sideway) → treat as fakeout. Jangan masuk.
________________________________________
3) M5 — cari entry & confirmation (OB/FVG + candle)
• M5 adalah tempat kau buat keputusan masuk.
• Tunggu script keluarkan Sideway Buy/Sell atau Breakout Buy/Sell.
• CONFIRM entry mesti ada sekurang-kurangnya 1 dari:
o Bull/Bear Order Block searah signal (script detect).
o FVG / Imbalance zone dipenuhi & price retest.
o Candle rejection (pinbar / bearish/bullish engulfing) pada zone.
Jika tiada confirmation → no trade.
________________________________________
4) Checklist sebelum tekan Buy/Sell (MUST)
• H1 bias tidak melawan trade (prefer sama arah).
• M15 confirm breakout / trend or neutral.
• Script keluarkan signal (sideway or breakout).
• OB or FVG atau candle rejection ada.
• ATR kenaikan jika breakout (untuk breakout trade).
• Volume spike jika breakout.
• Risk:SL <= 2% akaun (position sizing).
Kalau semua ticked → boleh entry.
________________________________________
5) Setting SL / TP & position sizing
• Sideway (scalp): SL = 5–8 tick, TP = 8–12 tick.
• Breakout (trend): SL = 8–12 tick, TP = 15–25+ tick (trail later).
• Position sizing: Risk per trade 1–2%.
o Lot size = (Account Risk RM × 1 tick value) / (SL ticks × tickValue) — (kalau kau gunakan fixed tick value, adjust ikut lot).
(Script tunjuk SL & TP label — follow itu.)
________________________________________
6) Entry types
• A. Sideway Reversal (M5)
o Signal: Sideway Buy / Sideway Sell
o Confirm: OB/FVG or rejection candle at range bottom/top
o Trade: scalp target 8–12 tick, tight SL 5–8 tick
• B. Breakout (M5 entry, M15 confirm)
o Signal: Breakout Buy/Sell (Strong)
o Confirm: ATR expanding + volume spike + M15 alignment
o Trade: trend follow, TP 15–25 tick, trailing stop active
• C. Retest Entry
o Breakout happens, price returns to retest range / OB / FVG → wait for rejection candle then enter. Safer.
________________________________________
7) Trailing & exit rules
• Jika useTrail = true script plots trailing stop (ATR × multiplier).
• Exit rules:
1. Hit TP → close.
2. Hit SL → close.
3. If trailing stop hit → close.
4. If opposing confirmed signal muncul (e.g., SELL confirm while long) → consider close early.
5. If H1 bias flips strongly vs trade → tighten stop or close.
________________________________________
8) Multiple signals & scaling
• Never add to losing position (no averaging down).
• If want scale-in on confirmed trend: add 1 partial size after price moves +10–12 tick in favor and shows continuation candle + no bearish OB/FVG.
• Keep aggregated risk within your max (2–3%).
________________________________________
9) Example trade walkthrough (concrete)
• RangeHigh = 4065, RangeLow = 4035 (contoh).
• Market sideway M5.
Case A — Sideway Sell:
1. Price touches 4064–4065, script shows sidewaySell.
2. Lihat OB: ada bear OB zone di 4062–4066 → confirm.
3. Candle rejection (bearish pinbar) muncul → enter SELL M5.
4. Set SL = 5 tick above rangeHigh = 4070, TP = 10 tick → 4055.
5. Trail jika price turun > 8 tick: aktifkan trailing.
6. Close at TP or trail/SL.
Case B — Breakout Buy:
1. Price closes above 4065 + 5 tick buffer = 4070 on M5. Script shows trueBreakUp.
2. M15 shows candle close above M15 resistance + volume spike → confirm.
3. Enter BUY, SL = 8 tick below entry, TP initial 20 tick, trail with ATR×1.5.
4. Move stop to breakeven after +10 tick, scale out half at +12 tick, leave rest to trail.
________________________________________
10) Journal & review
• Semua trade: record entry time, TF, reason (which confirmations), SL/TP, result, lesson.
• Weekly review: check which confirmation worked best (OB vs FVG vs candle) and tweak settings.
________________________________________
11) Tweaks / optimisations cepat
• Jika terlalu banyak false sideway signals → kurangkan touchDist ke 2 tick.
• Kalau fakeout breakout banyak → tambah tickBuf ke 6–8.
• Nak lebih konservatif → cuma trade breakout yang juga setuju M15.
________________________________________
12) Alerts & execution (practical)
• Pasang alert pada BUY Confirm / SELL Confirm (script).
• Kalau kau guna broker yang support one-click order, siap sediakan template order (SL/TP default).
• Kalau manual, bila alert masuk: buka M5, cepat confirm OB/FVG & candle rejection → entry.
________________________________________
Quick reference table (handy)
• TF utama entry: M5
• Confirm mid-TF: M15
• Bias HTF: H1
• Sideway SL/TP: SL 5–8, TP 8–12
• Breakout SL/TP: SL 8–12, TP 15–25+
• Mandatory confirmation: (Script signal) + (OB or FVG or candle)
Search in scripts for "retest"
IFVG (Inverted Fair Value Gap) Finder Detects standard Fair Value Gaps (3-candle definition) on any timeframe.
Tracks those FVG zones on the chart.
Marks Inverted Fair Value Gaps (IFVGs) when price breaches (invalidates) an FVG and later retests it from the other side.
Draws the zones and plots clear entry arrows when a retest is detected (so you can use them to enter trades).
Has alertconditions you can enable for automated alerts.
Twisted Forex's Doji + Area StrategyTitle
Twisted Forex’s Doji + Area Strategy
Description
What this strategy does
This strategy looks for doji candles forming inside or near supply/demand areas . Areas are built from swing pivots and sized with ATR, then tracked for retests (“confirmations”). When a doji prints close to an area and quality checks pass, the strategy places a trade with the stop beyond the doji and a configurable R:R target.
How areas (zones) are built
• Swings are detected with a user-set pivot length.
• Each swing spawns a horizontal area centered at the pivot price with half-height = zoneHalfATR × ATR .
• Duplicates are de-duplicated by center distance (ATR-scaled).
• Areas fade when broken beyond a buffer or after an optional age (expiry).
• Retests are recorded when price touches and then bounces away from the area; repeated reactions increase the zone’s “strength”.
Signal logic (summary)
Doji detection: strict or loose body criteria with optional minimum wick fractions and ATR-scaled minimum range.
Proximity: price must be inside/near a supply or demand area (proxATR × ATR).
Side resolution: overlap is resolved by (a) which side price penetrates more, (b) fast/slow EMA trend, or (c) nearest distance. Optional “previous candle flip” can bias long after a bearish candle and short after a bullish one.
Optional 1-bar confirmation: the bar after the doji must close away from the area by confirmATR × ATR .
Quality filter (Off/Soft/Strict): four checks—(i) wick rejection past the edge, (ii) doji closes in an edge “band” of the area, (iii) fresh touch (cooldown), (iv) approach impulse over a short lookback. In Strict , thresholds auto-tighten.
Orders & exits
• Long: stop below doji low minus buffer; Short: above doji high plus buffer.
• Target = rrMultiple × risk distance .
• Pyramiding is off by default.
Position sizing
You can size from the script or from Strategy Properties:
• Script-driven (default): set Position sizing = “Risk % of equity” and choose riskPercent (e.g., 1.0%). The script applies safe floors/rounding (FX micro-lots by default) so quantity never rounds to zero.
• Properties-driven : toggle Use TV Properties → Order size ON, then pick “Percent of equity” in Properties (e.g., 1%). The header includes safe defaults so trades still place.
Key inputs to explore
• Zone building : pivotLen, zoneHalfATR, minDepartureATR, expiryBars, breakATR, leftBars, dedupeATR.
• Doji & proximity : strictDoji, dojiBodyFrac, minWickFrac, minRangeATR, proxATR, minBarsBetween.
• Overlap resolution : usePenetration, useTrend (EMA 21/55), “previous candle flip”, needNextBarConf & confirmATR.
• Quality : qualityMode (Off/Soft/Strict), minQualPass/kStrict, wickPenATR, edgeBandFrac, approachLookback, approachMinATR, freshTouchBars.
• Zone strength gating : minStrengthSoft / minStrengthStrict.
• HTF confluence (optional) : useHTFTrend (HTF EMA 34/89) and/or useHTFZoneProx (HTF swing bands).
Tips to make it cleaner / higher quality
• Turn needNextBarConf ON and use confirmATR = 0.10–0.15 .
• Increase approachMinATR (e.g., 0.35–0.45) to require a stronger pre-touch impulse.
• Raise minStrengthSoft/Strict (e.g., 4–6) so only well-reacted zones can signal.
• Use signalsOnlyConfirmed ON if you prefer trades only from zones with retests (the script falls back gracefully when none exist yet).
• Nudge proxATR to 0.5–0.6 to demand tighter proximity to the level.
• Optional: enable useHTFTrend to filter counter-trend setups.
Default settings used in this publication
• Initial capital: 100,000 (illustrative).
• Slippage: 1 tick; Commission: 0% (you can raise commission if you prefer—spread is partly modeled by slippage).
• Sizing: Risk % of equity via inputs; riskPercent = 1.0% ; FX uses micro-lot floors by default.
• Quality: Off by default (Soft/Strict available).
• HTF trend gate: Off by default.
Backtesting notes
For a meaningful sample size, test on liquid symbols/timeframes that yield 100+ trades (e.g., majors on 5–15m over 1–2 years). Backtests are modelled and broker costs/spread vary—validate on your feed and forward-test.
How to read the chart
Shaded bands are supply (above) and demand (below). Brighter bands are the nearest K per side (visual aid). BUY/SELL labels mark entries; colored dots show entry/SL/TP levels. You can hide zones or unconfirmed zones for a cleaner view.

Keks Key Level Fx SessionsThis script is designed to automatically plot and manage key levels for the major FX trading sessions (London, New York, and Asia). It helps traders identify the most relevant price areas that often act as support, resistance, or breakout zones during active market hours.
Key features:
Marks session highs, lows, and midpoints
Visualizes key intraday levels for better market structure analysis
Highlights potential breakout and retest areas
Works across multiple timeframes for flexibility
Clean and minimal chart design to avoid clutter
This tool is especially useful for traders who rely on session-based strategies, such as breakout trading, retests, or range trading, by providing a clear visual guide to the most important price zones.
Yelober - Market Internal direction+ Key levelsYelober – Market Internals + Key Levels is a focused intraday trading tool that helps you spot high-probability price direction by anchoring decisions to structure that matters: yesterday’s RTH High/Low, today’s pre-market High/Low, and a fast Value Area/POC from the prior session. Paired with a compact market internals dashboard (NYSE/NASDAQ UVOL vs. DVOL ratios, VOLD slopes, TICK/TICKQ momentum, and optional VIX trend), it gives you a real-time read on breadth so you can choose which direction to trade, when to enter (breaks, retests, or fades at PMH/PML/VAH/VAL/POC), and how to plan exits as internals confirm or deteriorate. On top of these intraday decision benefits, it also allows traders—in a very subtle but powerful way—to keep an eye on the VIX and immediately recognize significant spikes or sharp decreases that should be factored in before entering a trade, or used as a quick signal to modify an existing position. In short: clear levels for the chart, live internals for the context, and a smarter, rules-based path to execution.
# Yelober – Market Internals + Key Levels
*A TradingView indicator for session key levels + real‑time market internals (NYSE/NASDAQ TICK, UVOL/DVOL/VOLD, and VIX).*
**Script name in Pine:** `Yelober - Market Internal direction+ Key levels` (Pine v6)
---
## 1) What this indicator does
**Purpose:** Help intraday traders quickly find high‑probability reaction zones and read market internals momentum without switching charts. It overlays yesterday/today’s **automatic price levels** on your active chart and shows a **market breadth table** that summarizes NYSE/NASDAQ buying pressure and TICK direction, with an optional VIX trend read.
### Key features at a glance
* **Automatic Price Levels (overlay on chart)**
* Yesterday’s High/Low of Day (**yHoD**, **yLoD**)
* Extended Hours High/Low (**yEHH**, **yEHL**) across yesterday AH + today pre‑market
* Today’s Pre‑Market High/Low (**PMH**, **PML**)
* Yesterday’s **Value Area High/Low** (**VAH/VAL**) and **Point of Control (POC)** computed from a volume profile of yesterday’s **regular session**
* Smart de‑duplication:
* Shows **only the higher** of (yEHH vs PMH) and **only the lower** of (yEHL vs PML) to avoid redundant bands
* **Market Breadth Table (on‑chart table)**
* **NYSE ratio** = UVOL/DVOL (signed) with **VOLD slope** from session open
* **NASDAQ ratio** = UVOLQ/DVOLQ (signed) with **VOLDQ slope** from session open
* **TICK** and **TICKQ**: live cumulative ratio and short‑term slope
* **VIX** (optional): current value + slope over a configurable lookback/timeframe
* Color‑coded trends with sensible thresholds and optional normalization
---
## 2) How to use it (trader workflow)
1. **Mark your reaction zones**
* Watch **yHoD/yLoD**, **PMH/PML**, and **VAH/VAL/POC** for first touches, break/retest, and failure tests.
* Expect increased responsiveness when multiple levels cluster (e.g., PMH ≈ VAH ≈ daily pivot).
2. **Read the breadth panel for context**
* **NYSE/NASDAQ ratio** (>1 = more up‑volume than down‑volume; <−1 = down‑dominant). Strong green across both favors long setups; red favors short setups.
* **VOLD slopes** (NYSE & NASDAQ): positive and accelerating → broadening participation; negative → persistent pressure.
* **TICK/TICKQ**: cumulative ratio and **slope arrows** (↗ / ↘ / →). Use the slope to gauge **near‑term thrust or fade**.
* **VIX slope**: rising VIX (red) often coincides with risk‑off; falling VIX (green) with risk‑on.
3. **Confluence = higher confidence**
* Example: Price reclaims **PMH** while **NYSE/NASDAQ ratios** print green and **TICK slopes** point ↗ — consider break‑and‑go; if VIX slope is ↘, that adds risk‑on confidence.
* Example: Price rejects **VAH** while **VOLD slopes** roll negative and VIX ↗ — consider fade/reversal.
4. **Risk management**
* Place stops just beyond key levels tested; if breadth flips, tighten or exit.
> **Timeframes:** Works best on 1–15m charts for intraday. Value Area is computed from **yesterday’s RTH**; choose a smaller calculation timeframe (e.g., 5–15m) for stable profiles.
---
## 3) Inputs & settings (what each option controls)
### Global Style
* **Enable all automatic price levels**: master toggle for yHoD/yLoD, yEHH/yEHL, PMH/PML, VAH/VAL/POC.
* **Line style/width**: applies to all drawn levels.
* **Label size/style** and **label color linking**: use the same color as the line or override with a global label color.
* **Maximum bars lookback**: how far the script scans to build yesterday metrics (performance‑sensitive).
### Value Area / Volume Profile
* **Enable Value Area calculations** *(on by default)*: computes yesterday’s **POC**, **VAH**, **VAL** from a simplified intraday volume profile built from yesterday’s **regular session bars**.
* **Max Volume Profile Points** *(default 50)*: lower values = faster; higher = more precise.
* **Value Area Calculation Timeframe** *(default 15)*: the security timeframe used when collecting yesterday’s highs/lows/volumes.
### Individual Level Toggles & Colors
* **yHoD / yLoD** (yesterday high/low)
* **yEHH / yEHL** (yesterday AH + today pre‑market extremes)
* **PMH / PML** (today pre‑market extremes)
* **VAH / VAL / POC** (yesterday RTH value area + point of control)
### Market Breadth Panel
* **Show NYSE / NASDAQ / VIX**: choose which series to display in the table.
* **Table Position / Size / Background Color**: UI placement and legibility.
* **Slope Averaging Periods** *(default 5)*: number of recent TICK/TICKQ ratio points used in slope calculation.
* **Candles for Rate** *(default 10)* & **Normalize Rate**: VIX slope calculation as % change between `now` and `n` candles ago; normalize divides by `n`.
* **VIX Timeframe**: optionally compute VIX on a higher TF (e.g., 15, 30, 60) for a smoother regime read.
* **Volume Normalization** (NYSE & NASDAQ): display VOLD slopes scaled to `tens/thousands/millions/10th millions` for readable magnitudes; color thresholds adapt to your choice.
---
## 4) Data sources & definitions
* **UVOL/VOLD (NYSE)** and **UVOLQ/DVOLQ/VOLDQ (NASDAQ)** via `request.security()`
* **Ratio** = `UVOL/DVOL` (signed; negative when down‑volume dominates)
* **VOLD slope** ≈ `(VOLD_now − VOLD_open) / bars_since_open`, then normalized per your setting
* **TICK/TICKQ**: cumulative sum of prints this session with **positives vs negatives ratio**, plus a simple linear regression **slope** of the last `N` ratio values
* **VIX**: value and slope across a user‑selected timeframe and lookback
* **Sessions (EST/EDT)**
* **Regular:** 09:30–16:00
* **Pre‑Market:** 04:00–09:30
* **After Hours:** 16:00–20:00
* **Extended‑hours extremes** combine **yesterday AH** + **today PM**
> **Note:** All session checks are done with TradingView’s `time(…,"America/New_York")` context. If your broker’s RTH differs (e.g., futures), adjust expectations accordingly.
---
## 5) How the algorithms work (plain English)
### A) Key Levels
* **Yesterday’s RTH High/Low**: scans yesterday’s bars within 09:30–16:00 and records the extremes + bar indices.
* **Extended Hours**: scans yesterday AH and today PM to get **yEHH/yEHL**. Script shows **either yEHH or PMH** (whichever is **higher**) and **either yEHL or PML** (whichever is **lower**) to avoid duplicate bands stacked together.
* **Value Area & POC (RTH only)**
* Build a coarse volume profile with `Max Volume Profile Points` buckets across the price range formed by yesterday’s RTH bars.
* Distribute each bar’s volume uniformly across the buckets it spans (fast approximation to keep Pine within execution limits).
* **POC** = bucket with max volume. **VA** expands from POC outward until **70%** of cumulative volume is enclosed → yields **VAH/VAL**.
### B) Market Breadth Table
* **NYSE/NASDAQ Ratio**: signed UVOL/DVOL with basic coloring.
* **VOLD Slopes**: from session open to current, normalized to human‑readable units; colors flip green/red based on thresholds that map to your normalization setting (e.g., ±2M for NYSE, ±3.5×10M for NASDAQ).
* **TICK/TICKQ Slope**: linear regression over the last `N` ratio points → **↗ / → / ↘** with the rounded slope value.
* **VIX Slope**: % change between now and `n` candles ago (optionally divided by `n`). Red when rising beyond threshold; green when falling.
---
## 6) Recommended presets
* **Stocks (liquid, intraday)**
* Value Area **ON**, `Max Volume Points` = **40–60**, **Timeframe** = **5–15**
* Breadth: show **NYSE & NASDAQ & VIX**, `Slope periods` = **5–8**, `Candles for rate` = **10–20**, **Normalize VIX** = **ON**
* **Index futures / very high‑volume symbols**
* If you see Pine timeouts, set `Max Volume Points` = **20–40** or temporarily **disable Value Area**.
* Keep breadth panel **ON** (it’s light). Consider **VIX timeframe = 15/30** for regime clarity.
---
## 7) Tips, edge cases & performance
* **Performance:** The volume profile is capped (`maxBarsToProcess ≤ 500` and bucketed) to keep it responsive. If you experience slowdowns, reduce `Max Volume Points`, `Maximum bars lookback`, or disable Value Area.
* **Redundant lines:** The script **intentionally suppresses** PMH/PML when yEHH/yEHL are more extreme, and vice‑versa.
* **Label visibility:** Use `Label style = none` if you only want clean lines and read values from the right‑end labels.
* **Futures/RTH differences:** Value Area is from **yesterday’s RTH** only; for 24h instruments the RTH period may not reflect overnight structure.
* **Session transitions:** PMH/PML tracking stops as soon as RTH starts; values persist as static levels for the session.
---
## 8) Known limitations
* Uses public TradingView symbols: `UVOL`, `VOLD`, `UVOLQ`, `DVOLQ`, `VOLDQ`, `TICK`, `TICKQ`, `VIX`. If your data plan or region limits any symbol, the corresponding table rows may show `na`.
* The VA/POC approximation assumes uniform distribution of each bar’s volume across its high–low. That’s fast but not a tick‑level profile.
* Works best on US equities with standard NY session; alternative sessions may need code changes.
---
## 9) Troubleshooting
* **“Script is too slow / timed out”** → Lower `Max Volume Points`, lower `Maximum bars lookback`, or toggle **OFF** `Enable Value Area calculations` for that instrument.
* **Missing breadth values** → Ensure the symbols above load on your account; try reloading chart or switching timeframes once.
* **Overlapping labels** → Set `Label style = none` or reduce label size.

## 11) Quick start (TL;DR)
1. Add the indicator and **keep default settings**.
2. Trade **reactions** at yHoD/yLoD/PMH/PML/VAH/VAL/POC.
3. Use the **breadth table**: look for **green ratios + ↗ slopes** (risk‑on) or **red ratios + ↘ slopes** (risk‑off). Check **VIX** slope for confirmation.
4. Manage risk around levels; when breadth flips against you, tighten or exit.

Multi-TF Trend Table (Configurable)1) What this tool does (in one minute)
A compact, multi‑timeframe dashboard that stacks eight timeframes and tells you:
Trend (fast MA vs slow MA)
Where price sits relative to those MAs
How far price is from the fast MA in ATR terms
MA slope (rising, falling, flat)
Stochastic %K (with overbought/oversold heat)
MACD momentum (up or down)
A single score (0%–100%) per timeframe
Alignment tick when trend, structure, slope and momentum all agree
Use it to:
Frame bias top‑down (M→W→D→…→15m)
Time entries on your execution timeframe when the higher‑TF stack is aligned
Avoid counter‑trend traps when the table is mixed
2) Table anatomy (each column explained)
The table renders 9 columns × 8 rows (one row per timeframe label you define).
TF — The label you chose for that row (e.g., Month, Week, 4H). Cosmetic; helps you read the stack.
Trend — Arrow from fast MA vs slow MA: ↑ if fastMA > slowMA (up‑trend), ↓ otherwise (down‑trend). Cell is green for up, red for down.
Price Pos — One‑character structure cue:
🔼 if price is above both fast and slow MAs (bullish structure)
🔽 if price is below both (bearish structure)
– otherwise (between MAs / mixed)
MA Dist — Distance of price from the fast MA measured in ATR multiples:
XS < S < M < L < XL according to your thresholds (see §3.3). Useful for judging stretch/mean‑reversion risk and stop sizing.
MA Slope — The fast MA one‑bar slope:
↑ if fastMA - fastMA > 0
↓ if < 0
→ if = 0
Stoch %K — Rounded %K value (default 14‑1‑3). Background highlights when it aligns with the trend:
Green heat when trend up and %K ≤ oversold
Red heat when trend down and %K ≥ overbought Tooltip shows K and D values precisely.
Trend % — Composite score (0–100%), the dashboard’s confidence for that timeframe:
+20 if trendUp (fast>slow)
+20 if fast MA slope > 0
+20 if MACD up (signal definition in §2.8)
+20 if price above fast MA
+20 if price above slow MA
Background colours:
≥80 lime (strong alignment)
≥60 green (good)
≥40 orange (mixed)
<40 grey (weak/contrary)
MACD — 🟢 if EMA(12)−EMA(26) > its EMA(9), else 🔴. It’s a simple “momentum up/down” proxy.
Align — ✔ when everything is in gear for that trend direction:
For up: trendUp and price above both MAs and slope>0 and MACD up
For down: trendDown and price below both MAs and slope<0 and MACD down Tooltip spells this out.
3) Settings & how to tune them
3.1 Timeframes (TF1–TF8)
Inputs: TF1..TF8 hold the resolution strings used by request.security().
Defaults: M, W, D, 720, 480, 240, 60, 15 with display labels Month, Week, Day, 12H, 8H, 4H, 1H, 15m.
Tips
Keep a top‑down funnel (e.g., Month→Week→Day→H4→H1→M15) so you can cascade bias into entries.
If you scalp, consider D, 240, 120, 60, 30, 15, 5, 1.
Crypto weekends: consider 2D in place of W to reflect continuous trading.
3.2 Moving Average (MA) group
Type: EMA, SMA, WMA, RMA, HMA. Changes both fast & slow MA computations everywhere.
Fast Length: default 20. Shorten for snappier trend/slope & tighter “price above fast” signals.
Slow Length: default 200. Controls the structural trend and part of the score.
When to change
Swing FX/equities: EMA 20/200 is a solid baseline.
Mean‑reversion style: consider SMA 20/100 so trend flips slower.
Crypto/indices momentum: HMA 21 / EMA 200 will read slope more responsively.
3.3 ATR / Distance group
ATR Length: default 14; longer makes distance less jumpy.
XS/S/M/L thresholds: define the labels in column MA Dist. They are compared to |close − fastMA| / ATR.
Defaults: XS 0.25×, S 0.75×, M 1.5×, L 2.5×; anything ≥L is XL.
Usage
Entries late in a move often occur at L/XL; consider waiting for a pullback unless you are trading breakouts.
For stops, an initial SL around 0.75–1.5 ATR from fast MA often sits behind nearby noise; use your plan.
3.4 Stochastic group
%K Length / Smoothing / %D Smoothing: defaults 14 / 1 / 3.
Overbought / Oversold: defaults 70 / 30 (adjust to 80/20 for trendier assets).
Heat logic (column Stoch %K): highlights when a pullback aligns with the dominant trend (oversold in an uptrend, overbought in a downtrend).
3.5 View
Full Screen Table Mode: centers and enlarges the table (position.middle_center). Great for clean screenshots or multi‑monitor setups.
4) Signal logic (how each datapoint is computed)
Per‑TF data (via a single request.security()):
fastMA, slowMA → based on your MA Type and lengths
%K, %D → Stoch(High,Low,Close,kLen) smoothed by kSmooth, then %D smoothed by dSmooth
close, ATR(atrLen) → for structure and distance
MACD up → (EMA12−EMA26) > EMA9(EMA12−EMA26)
fastMA_prev → yesterday/previous‑bar fast MA for slope
TrendUp → fastMA > slowMA
Price Position → compares close to both MAs
MA Distance Label → thresholds on abs(close − fastMA)/ATR
Slope → fastMA − fastMA
Score (0–100) → sum of the five 20‑point checks listed in §2.7
Align tick → conjunction of trend, price vs both MAs, slope and MACD (see §2.9)
Important behaviour
HTF values are sampled at the execution chart’s bar close using Pine v6 defaults (no lookahead). So the daily row updates only when a daily bar actually closes.
5) How to trade with it (playbooks)
The table is a framework. Entries/exits still follow your plan (e.g., S/D zones, price action, risk rules). Use the table to know when to be aggressive vs patient.
Playbook A — Trend continuation (pullback entry)
Look for Align ✔ on your anchor TFs (e.g., Week+Day both ≥80 and green, Trend ↑, MACD 🟢).
On your execution TF (e.g., H1/H4), wait for Stoch heat with the trend (oversold in uptrend or overbought in downtrend), and MA Dist not at XL.
Enter on your trigger (break of pullback high/low, engulfing, retest of fast MA, or S/D first touch per your plan).
Risk: consider ATR‑based SL beyond structure; size so 0.25–0.5% account risk fits your rules.
Trail or scale at M/L distances or when score deteriorates (<60).
Playbook B — Breakout with confirmation
Mixed stack turns into broad green: Trend % jumps to ≥80 on Day and H4; MACD flips 🟢.
Price Pos shows 🔼 across H4/H1 (above both MAs). Slope arrows ↑.
Enter on the first clean base‑break with volume/impulse; avoid if MA Dist already XL.
Playbook C — Mean‑reversion fade (advanced)
Use only when higher TFs are not aligned and the row you trade shows XL distance against the higher‑TF context. Take quick targets back to fast MA. Lower win‑rate, faster management.
Playbook D — Top‑down filter for Supply/Demand strategy
Trade first retests only in the direction where anchor TFs (Week/Day) have Align ✔ and Trend % ≥60. Skip counter‑trend zones when the stack is red/green against you.
6) Reading examples
Strong bullish stack
Week: ↑, 🔼, S/M, slope ↑, %K=32 (green heat), Trend 100%, MACD 🟢, Align ✔
Day: ↑, 🔼, XS/S, slope ↑, %K=45, Trend 80%, MACD 🟢, Align ✔
Action: Look for H4/H1 pullback into demand or fast MA; buy continuation.
Late‑stage thrust
H1: ↑, 🔼, XL, slope ↑, %K=88
Day/H4: only 60–80%
Action: Likely overextended on H1; wait for mean reversion or multi‑TF alignment before chasing.
Bearish transition
Day flips from 60%→40%, Trend ↓, MACD turns 🔴, Price Pos “–” (between MAs)
Action: Stand aside for longs; watch for lower‑high + Align ✔ on H4/H1 to join shorts.
7) Practical tips & pitfalls
HTF closure: Don’t assume a daily row changed mid‑day; it won’t settle until the daily bar closes. For intraday anticipation, watch H4/H1 rows.
MA Type consistency: Changing MA Type changes slope/structure everywhere. If you compare screenshots, keep the same type.
ATR thresholds: Calibrate per asset class. FX may suit defaults; indices/crypto might need wider S/M/L.
Score ≠ signal: 100% does not mean “must buy now.” It means the environment is favourable. Still execute your trigger.
Mixed stacks: When rows disagree, reduce size or skip. The tool is telling you the market lacks consensus.
8) Customisation ideas
Timeframe presets: Save layouts (e.g., Swing, Intraday, Scalper) as indicator templates in TradingView.
Alternative momentum: Replace the MACD condition with RSI(>50/<50) if desired (would require code edit).
Alerts: You can add alert conditions for (a) Align ✔ changes, (b) Trend % crossing 60/80, (c) Stoch heat events. (Not shipped in this script, but easy to add.)
9) FAQ
Q: Why do I sometimes see a dash in Price Pos? A: Price is between fast and slow MAs. Structure is mixed; seek clarity before acting.
Q: Does it repaint? A: No, higher‑TF values update on the close of their own bars (standard request.security behaviour without lookahead). Intra‑bar they can fluctuate; decisions should be made at your bar close per your plan.
Q: Which columns matter most? A: For trend‑following: Trend, Price Pos, Slope, MACD, then Stoch heat for entries. The Score summarises, and Align enforces discipline.
Q: How do I integrate with ATR‑based risk? A: Use the MA Dist label to avoid chasing at extremes and to size stops in ATR terms (e.g., SL behind structure at ~1–1.5 ATR).
Pure Price Zone Flow🔎 What this indicator is
It’s a price-action-based zone indicator. Unlike moving average systems, this one relies only on:
1. Swing Highs & Swing Lows → The highest and lowest points within a recent lookback period (like "mini support & resistance").
2. ATR (Average True Range) → A volatility measure that expands the zone, making it more adaptive to different market conditions.
3. Breakouts & Retests → When price breaks above a swing high (bullish) or below a swing low (bearish), the indicator marks it and highlights the new trend.
👉 The goal is to spot clean structure shifts and define clear trend zones where traders can position themselves.
________________________________________
⚙️ How it is calculated
1. Swing High & Swing Low
o We look back len candles (default 20).
o Find the highest high (swingHigh) and the lowest low (swingLow) in that window.
o This forms the price range zone.
2. ATR Expansion
o We calculate ATR over the same len.
o Add/subtract it (multiplied by atrMult) to the zone edges to expand them.
o This ensures the zones breathe with volatility (tight in quiet markets, wide in choppy ones).
3. Mid-Zone
o Simply the average of swingHigh and swingLow.
o If price is above mid → bullish bias.
o If below mid → bearish bias.
o This gives us the trend color for candles.
4. Breakouts
o If the close crosses above swingHigh, we mark a bullish breakout with a label.
o If the close crosses below swingLow, we mark a bearish breakdown.
________________________________________
📊 How it helps traders
This indicator helps by:
1. Identifying Structure Shifts
o Many traders watch swing highs/lows for breakouts or reversals.
o This automates the process and visually confirms when structure is broken.
2. Dynamic Zone Trading
o Instead of fixed support/resistance, the ATR expansion adapts to volatility.
o This avoids false signals in high-volatility conditions.
3. Trend Bias at a Glance
o Candle coloring instantly tells you whether price is in bullish or bearish territory relative to the mid-zone.
4. Breakout Confirmation
o The labels show when a breakout has occurred, so traders can react quickly (e.g., enter with trend, wait for retest, or avoid fading moves).
________________________________________
🌍 Markets it works best in
• Crypto (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.): Very effective since crypto is breakout-driven and respects swing levels.
• Forex: Good for volatility-adaptive structure analysis, especially in trending pairs.
• Indices (SPX, NASDAQ, DAX, NIFTY): Useful for breakout trading during session opens or key news events.
• Commodities (Gold, Oil, Silver): Works well to define intraday ranges and breakout levels.
⚠️ Less useful in low-volatility, mean-reverting assets (like some penny stocks or sideways ranges), because breakouts may be rare or fake.
________________________________________
💡 How it adds value
• Strips away unnecessary complexity (no lagging averages).
• Focuses directly on what price is doing structurally.
• Adaptive → works across different markets & timeframes.
• Easy visualization → zones, trend coloring, breakout markers.
• Helps traders trade with the flow of the market, instead of guessing tops/bottoms.
________________________________________
👉 In short:
This indicator turns raw price action into clear, actionable zones.
It highlights when the market shifts from balance to breakout, so traders can align with momentum rather than fighting it.
Momentum_EMABand📢 Reposting Notice
I am reposting this script because my earlier submission was hidden due to description requirements under TradingView’s House Rules. This updated version fully explains the originality, the reason for combining these indicators, and how they work together. Follow me for future updates and refinements.
🆕 Momentum EMA Band, Rule-Based System
Momentum EMA Band is not just a mashup — it is a purpose-built trading tool for intraday traders and scalpers that integrates three complementary technical concepts into a single rules-based breakout & retest framework.
Originality comes from the specific sequence and interaction of these three filters:
Supertrend → Sets directional bias.
EMA Band breakout with retest logic → Times precise entries.
ADX filter → Confirms momentum strength and avoids noise.
This system is designed to filter out weak setups and false breakouts that standalone indicators often fail to avoid.
🔧 How the Indicator Works — Combined Logic
1️⃣ EMA Price Band — Dynamic Zone Visualization
Plots upper & lower EMA bands (default: 9-period EMA).
Green Band → Price above upper EMA = bullish momentum
Red Band → Price below lower EMA = bearish pressure
Yellow Band → Price within band = neutral zone
Acts as a consolidation zone and breakout trigger level.
2️⃣ Supertrend Overlay — Reliable Trend Confirmation
ATR-based Supertrend adapts to volatility:
Green Line = Uptrend bias
Red Line = Downtrend bias
Ensures trades align with the prevailing trend.
3️⃣ ADX-Based No-Trade Zone — Choppy Market Filter
Manual ADX calculation (default: length 14).
If ADX < threshold (default: 20) and price is inside EMA Band → gray background marks low-momentum zones.
🧩 Why This Mashup Works
Supertrend confirms trend direction.
EMA Band breakout & retest validates the breakout’s strength.
ADX ensures the market has enough trend momentum.
When all align, entries are higher probability and whipsaws are reduced.
📈 Example Trade Walkthrough
Scenario: 5-minute chart, ADX threshold = 20.
Supertrend turns green → trend bias is bullish.
Price consolidates inside the yellow EMA Band.
ADX rises above 20 → trend momentum confirmed.
Price closes above the green EMA Band after retesting the band as support.
Entry triggered on candle close, stop below band, target based on risk-reward.
Exit when Supertrend flips red or ADX momentum drops.
This sequence prevents premature entries, keeps trades aligned with trend, and avoids ranging markets.
🎯 Key Features
✅ Multi-layered confirmation for precision trading
✅ Built-in no-trade zone filter
✅ Fully customizable parameters

Multi Pivot Point & Central Pivot Range - Nadeem Al-QahwiThis indicator combines four advanced trading modules into one flexible and easy-to-use script:
Traditional Pivot Points:
Calculates classic support and resistance levels (PP, R1–R5, S1–S5) based on previous session data. Ideal for identifying key turning points and mapping out the daily, weekly, or monthly structure.
Camarilla Levels:
Provides six upper and lower pivot levels (H1–H6, L1–L6) derived from volatility and closing price formulas. Especially effective for intraday reversal, mean reversion, and finding overbought/oversold extremes.
Central Pivot Range (CPR):
Plots the median, top, and bottom of the value area each session. CPR width instantly highlights whether the market is likely to trend (narrow CPR) or remain range-bound (wide CPR).
Developing CPR projects the evolving range for the current period—essential for real-time analysis and pre-market planning.
Dynamic Zone Levels (DZL):
Automatically detects and highlights clusters of pivots to reveal high-probability support/resistance zones, filtering out market “noise.”
DZL alerts notify you whenever price breaks or retests these key areas, making it easier to spot momentum trades and avoid false signals.
Key Features:
Multi-timeframe flexibility: Use with daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, or custom timeframes—even rare ones like biyearly and decennial.
Modular design: Activate or hide any system (Traditional, Camarilla, CPR, DZL) as you need.
Bilingual interface: Every setting and label is shown in both English and Arabic.
Full customization: Control visibility, color, style, and placement for every level and label.
Historical depth: Plot up to 5,000 pivot/zones back for deep analysis and backtesting.
Smart alerts: Get instant notifications on true S/R breakouts or retests (from DZL).
How to Use:
Trend Trading:
Watch for a very narrow CPR to identify potential trending days—trade in the breakout direction above/below the CPR.
Range Trading:
When CPR is wide, expect sideways movement. Fade reversals at R1/S1 or within the CPR boundaries.
Breakouts:
Use DZL alerts to capture momentum as price breaks or retests dynamic support/resistance zones.
Multi-Timeframe Confluence:
Combine CPR and pivot levels from multiple timeframes for higher-probability entries and exits.
All calculations and logic are fully open.
Pivot Channel LevelsPivot Channel Levels
Indicator Description
“Pivot Channel Levels” is an advanced technical analysis tool that identifies key price pivots (highs and lows) and creates dynamic support and resistance levels based on the wicks of candles at these points (or bodies if wicks are minimal). The indicator analyzes the volume at the time of a pivot’s formation, displaying its value and percentage change relative to the volume’s simple moving average (SMA).
It does not generate buy/sell signals but provides a clear visualization of market structure, helping traders identify potential price reaction zones and assess the strength of market movements.
Why Are Wicks Important?
Candle wicks at price pivots indicate significant market reactions in key areas. Depending on the context, they may signal rejection, testing, or absorption of a support or resistance level. Long wicks often appear where large players are active, and the marked zones are frequently retested. The indicator allows for quick identification and observation of their impact on future price action.
Why Use It?
- Precise Support and Resistance Levels: The indicator draws price channels based on candle wicks at pivots (or bodies if wicks are absent), enabling better identification of zones where price may react.
- Volume Analysis: It shows how the volume at a pivot differs from the average, indicating potential activity by large players or key market moments.
- Visual Clarity: Colored lines, channel fills, and clear labels facilitate quick chart analysis, even on short timeframes.
- Flexibility: Adjustable pivot length, volume average, and label colors allow customization to various trading strategies.
How It Works
- Pivot Detection: Automatically identifies local highs and lows based on the “Pivot Length” parameter (default: 20 candles). This means a pivot appears on the chart with a 20-candle delay. Reducing this value allows faster pivot detection (after fewer candles), increasing their number but potentially generating more noise.
- Channel Creation: Draws support and resistance levels based on the wicks of candles at pivot points (or bodies if wicks are minimal) with a delay to confirm zones. A pivot channel is drawn until the next pivot is identified, but if not previously broken, it remains valid as active support or resistance.
- Volume Analysis: Displays the volume at the pivot’s formation and its percentage change relative to the volume’s SMA.
- Visualization: Pivot and channel levels are shown as lines with fills, and labels display volume and its deviation from the average.
Trading Applications
- Swing Trading: Use pivot levels and channels to identify price reversal points or consolidation zones.
- Scalping: Monitor price reactions to channels on short timeframes, especially with high volume.
- Faster Pivot Identification: Switch to a lower timeframe (e.g., from H1 to M15) to identify pivots more quickly, allowing earlier reactions to price changes.
- Market Context Analysis: High volume at pivots may indicate significant levels likely to be retested.
- Combining with Other Tools: The indicator pairs well with Fibonacci retracement, supply/demand zones, or oscillators like RSI.
Settings and Customization
- Pivot Length: Determines how many candles back and forward are analyzed to detect pivots (default: 20). A smaller value increases sensitivity, a larger one enhances stability.
- Volume Average: Length of the SMA for volume (default: 20). Adjust to better reflect market characteristics.
- Label Colors: Choose colors for bullish and bearish pivot labels to match your chart style.
Usage Examples
- Identifying Key Zones: If the price approaches a pivot level with high volume (e.g., +50% relative to SMA), it may signal strong support or resistance.
- Breakout Confirmation: A channel breakout with high volume can indicate trend continuation.
- Price Reaction Analysis: Long wicks at pivots with high volume may signal level rejection by large players.
Notes for Users
- The indicator performs best on highly liquid markets (e.g., Forex, indices, cryptocurrencies).
- On short timeframes (e.g., M1, M5), it may generate more noise—adjust “Pivot Length” to suit your needs.
- Consider combining with other indicators to confirm signals derived from pivot and volume analysis.
Reintegration OPR zone 9h30📝 Indicator Description (for TradingView):
Name: Reintegration OPR Zone – 9:30 AM EST (UTC-4)
Purpose:
This indicator is designed for US indices like NAS100, US30, or SPX500. It helps identify potential false breakouts or retests by tracking when the price re-enters the Opening Price Range (OPR) after an initial breakout.
🔍 How it works:
At 9:30 AM New York time (UTC-4), the script captures the high and low of the first 15-minute candle (which is key for the US session open).
It then draws a horizontal box (rectangle) from the high to the low of that candle.
The box extends horizontally for 7 hours (28 candles on a 15-minute chart).
The script tracks if price:
Breaks above or below the OPR zone
Then re-enters the zone (a potential "fakeout" or "retest" signal)
No label or text is displayed on the chart (you requested it to be hidden).
🕒 Timeframe:
Designed for the 15-minute chart (M15)
Assumes New York session open at 9:30 AM EST (UTC-4)
Enigma UnlockedENIGMA Indicator: A Comprehensive Market Bias & Success Tracker
The ENIGMA Indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders who aim to identify market bias, track price movements, and evaluate trade performance using multiple timeframes. It combines multiple indicators and advanced logic to provide real-time insights into market trends, helping traders make more informed decisions.
Key Features
1. Multi-Timeframe Bias Calculation:
The ENIGMA Indicator tracks the market bias across multiple timeframes—Daily (D), 4-Hour (H4), 1-Hour (H1), 30-Minute (30M), 15-Minute (15M), 5-Minute (5M), and 1-Minute (1M).
How the Bias is Created:
The Bias is a key feature of the ENIGMA Indicator and is determined by comparing the current price with previous price levels for each timeframe.
- Bullish Bias (1): The market is considered **bullish** if the **current closing price** is higher than the **previous timeframe’s high**. This suggests that the market is trending upwards, and buyers are in control.
- Bearish Bias (-1): The market is considered **bearish** if the **current closing price** is lower than the **previous timeframe’s low**. This suggests that the market is trending downwards, and sellers are in control.
- Neutral Bias (0): The market is considered **neutral** if the price is between the **previous high** and **previous low**, indicating indecision or a range-bound market.
This bias calculation is performed independently for each timeframe. The **Bias** for each timeframe is then displayed in the **Bias Table** on your chart, providing a clear view of market direction across multiple timeframes.
2. **Customizable Table Display:**
- The indicator provides a table that displays the bias for each selected timeframe, clearly marking whether the market is **Bullish**, **Bearish**, or **Neutral**.
- Users can choose where to place the table on the chart: top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right, or center positions, allowing for easy and personalized chart management.
3. **Win/Loss Tracker:**
- The table also tracks the **success rate** of **buy** and **sell** trades based on price retests of key bias levels.
- For each period (Day, Week, Month), it tracks how often the price has moved in the direction of the initial bias, counting **Buy Wins**, **Sell Wins**, **Buy Losses**, and **Sell Losses**.
- This helps traders assess the effectiveness of the market bias over time and adjust their strategies accordingly.
#### **How the Success Calculation Determines the Success Rate:**
The **Success Calculation** is designed to track how often the price follows the direction of the market bias. It does this by evaluating how the price retests key levels associated with the identified market bias:
1. **Buy Success Calculation**:
- The success of a **Buy Trade** is determined when the price breaks above the **previous high** after a **bullish bias** has been identified.
- If the price continues to move higher (i.e., makes a new high) after breaking the previous high, the **buy trade is considered successful**.
- The indicator tracks how many times this condition is met and counts it as a **Buy Win**.
2. **Sell Success Calculation**:
- The success of a **Sell Trade** is determined when the price breaks below the **previous low** after a **bearish bias** has been identified.
- If the price continues to move lower (i.e., makes a new low) after breaking the previous low, the **sell trade is considered successful**.
- The indicator tracks how many times this condition is met and counts it as a **Sell Win**.
3. **Failure Calculations**:
- If the price does not move as expected (i.e., it does not continue in the direction of the identified bias), the trade is considered a **loss** and is tracked as **Buy Loss** or **Sell Loss**, depending on whether it was a bullish or bearish trade.
The ENIGMA Indicator keeps a running tally of **Buy Wins**, **Sell Wins**, **Buy Losses**, and **Sell Losses** over a set period (which can be customized to Days, Weeks, or Months). These statistics are updated dynamically in the **Bias Table**, allowing you to track your success rate in real-time and gain insights into the effectiveness of the market bias.
#### **Customizable Period Tracking:**
- The ENIGMA Indicator allows you to set custom tracking periods (e.g., 30 days, 2 weeks, etc.). The performance metrics reset after each tracking period, helping you monitor your success in different market conditions.
5. **Interactive Settings:**
- **Lookback Period**: Define how many bars the indicator should consider for bias calculations.
- **Success Tracking**: Set the number of candles to track for calculating the win/loss performance.
- **Time Threshold**: Set a time threshold to help define the period during which price retests are considered valid.
- **Info Tooltip**: You can enable the information tool in the settings to view detailed explanations of how wins and losses are calculated, ensuring you understand how the indicator works and how the results are derived.
#### **How to Use the ENIGMA Indicator:**
1. **Install the Indicator**:
- Add the ENIGMA Indicator to your chart. It will automatically calculate and display the bias for multiple timeframes.
2. **Interpret the Bias Table**:
- The bias table will show whether the market is **Bullish**, **Bearish**, or **Neutral** across different timeframes.
- Look for alignment between the timeframes—when multiple timeframes show the same bias, it may indicate a stronger trend.
3. **Use the Win/Loss Tracker**:
- Track how well your trades align with the bias using the **Win/Loss Tracker**. This helps you refine your strategy by understanding which timeframes and biases lead to higher success rates.
- For example, if you see a high number of **Buy Wins** and a low number of **Sell Wins**, you may decide to focus more on buying during bullish trends and avoid selling during bearish retracements.
4. **Track Your Period Performance**:
- The indicator will automatically track your performance over the set period (Days, Weeks, Months). Use this data to adjust your approach and evaluate the effectiveness of your trading strategy.
5. **Position the Table**:
- Customize the placement of the table on your chart based on your preferences. You can choose from options like **Top Left**, **Top Right**, **Bottom Left**, **Bottom Right**, or **Center** to keep the chart uncluttered.
6. **Adjust Settings**:
- Modify the indicator settings according to your trading style. You can adjust the **Lookback Period**, **Number of Candles to Track**, and **Time Threshold** to match the pace of your trading.
7. **Use the Info Tooltip**:
- Enable the **Info Tool** in the settings to understand how the Buy/Sell Wins and Losses are calculated. The tooltip provides a breakdown of how the indicator tracks price movements and calculates the success rate.
**Conclusion:**
The **ENIGMA Indicator** is designed to help traders make informed decisions by providing a clear view of the market bias and performance data. With the ability to track bias across multiple timeframes and evaluate your trading success, it can be a powerful tool for refining your trading strategies.
Whether you're looking to focus on a single timeframe or analyze multiple timeframes for a stronger bias, the ENIGMA Indicator adapts to your needs, providing both real-time market insights and performance feedback.
DB369 - Directional Bias 369
DB369 - Directional Bias 369 Indicator
The **DB369** indicator helps traders identify key market levels and trends by combining multiple timeframes' price action analysis. It highlights important **pivot points** on the chart and provides visual cues to help you make more informed buy and sell decisions based on the overall market direction.
Key Features
1. Pivot Points Across Multiple Timeframes**:
- The indicator calculates and displays pivot points for the **Monthly**, **Weekly**, **Daily**, **4-Hour**, and **1-Hour** timeframes (or 30-minute equivalent if desired). These pivots represent significant price levels where the market may retest.
2. **Trend Detection**:
- The indicator evaluates the relationship between the current price and the pivot point for each timeframe. Based on this comparison, it classifies the market as **Bullish**, **Bearish**, or **Neutral** on each timeframe.
3. **Pivot Lines**:
- Horizontal lines are drawn to mark the key pivot points for each selected timeframe. These lines extend into the future and adjust dynamically as the market moves in real time.
- **Customizable**: You can choose which timeframes to display pivot points by enabling/disabling them in the settings.
4. **Trend Table**:
- A **table** is displayed at the top-right of the chart to show the trend for the **Daily**, **4-Hour**, and **30-Minute** timeframes. It provides an easy-to-read view of the trend direction across these timeframes.
5. **Buy/Sell Arrows**:
- **Buy Arrow**: A green arrow will appear when the **Daily**, **4-Hour**, and **30-Minute** trends are all **Bullish** (aligned in the same direction).
- **Sell Arrow**: A red arrow will appear when all three timeframes show a **Bearish** trend.
- These arrows appear only once per alignment change and can be enabled or disabled for alerts. This helps avoid clutter on the chart and ensures that you only see a signal when the alignment occurs or changes.
### **How to Use the DB369 Indicator**:
1. **Pivot Points**:
- The pivot points represent significant price levels where the market might retest in the future. For instance:
- **Bullish Market**: If the price is above the pivot point, the market is considered bullish.
- **Bearish Market**: If the price is below the pivot point, the market is considered bearish.
- **Neutral Market**: When the price is near the pivot point, the market is neither strongly bullish nor bearish.
2. **Trend Alignment**:
- When the **Daily**, **4-Hour**, and **30-Minute** timeframes all show the same trend direction (either **Bullish** or **Bearish**), this alignment signifies a stronger trend.
- You will receive a **Buy Arrow** when all three timeframes are aligned bullish, and a **Sell Arrow** when they are aligned bearish.
- These arrows are displayed at the point when the alignment is first detected and can also trigger **alerts**.
3. **Alerts**:
- You can choose to enable alerts for when a **Buy** or **Sell** arrow appears on the chart. This allows you to be notified in real-time when the alignment conditions are met.
4. **Using the Pivot Points for Entry**:
- **Buy Trade**: Look for a buy trade when the price is near the **pivot line** of the higher timeframes, particularly when the trend across all three timeframes is **Bullish**.
- **Sell Trade**: Similarly, look for a sell trade when the price is near a **pivot line** and the trend is **Bearish**.
5. **Customization**:
- You can customize which timeframes' pivots are shown on the chart by toggling the visibility of the **Monthly**, **Weekly**, **Daily**, **4-Hour**, and **1-Hour** pivots in the settings.
- The indicator automatically adjusts the pivot levels in real-time as the market progresses.
**Important Notes**:
- This indicator does not guarantee successful trades; it is intended to assist in identifying potential trade opportunities based on the alignment of higher timeframe trends.
- Always combine the information from the DB369 indicator with other technical analysis tools and risk management strategies to ensure more accurate trade decisions.
Rolling ATR Bands | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing the Rolling ATR Bands indicator! This indicator overlays adaptive bands around the price, using the Average True Range (ATR) to define dynamic support and resistance levels. The Rolling ATR Bands are color-coded to visually indicate potential trend strength, shifting between bearish, neutral, and bullish colors. This tool can help traders interpret price volatility, as well as identify probable trend changes, continuations, or reversals. For more information about the process, check the "HOW DOES IT WORK ?" section.
Features of the new Rolling ATR Bands:
ATR Bands With Customizable ATR Length & Multiplier
Smooth Trend Strength With Adjustable Smoothing Options
Color-coded bands Representing Bearish, Neutral, or Bullish Trends
Alerts for Retests & Breaks
Customizable Visuals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK?
The Rolling ATR Bands indicator calculates the ATR based on the specified length and multiplier to form upper and lower bands around the price. These bands adapt with market volatility, widening during high volatility and contracting during lower volatility periods.
In addition, the indicator calculates a "trend strength" score by combining an interpolated RSI, Supertrend, and EMA crossover. This score is smoothed with a customizable length, and a color gradient is applied to visually denote the strength of bearish, neutral, or bullish conditions.
Here's how to interpret the bands:
Upper Band: Acts as dynamic resistance; when price approaches or touches it, this often suggests potential overbought conditions.
Lower Band: Acts as dynamic support; touching or nearing this band might indicate potential oversold conditions.
Color Shifts: Color changes indicate shifts in trend direction. For example, a green color suggests a bullish trend, while red hints at bearish tendencies.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
What sets the Rolling ATR Bands apart is the combined use of interpolated RSI, Supertrend, and EMA cross values, creating a weighted trend strength score. This integration allows for nuanced, color-coded visual cues that respond quickly to trend changes without excessive noise, offering traders an intuitive view of both trend direction and potential momentum. You can also set up alerts for retest & alerts for upper and lower bands to get informed of potential movements.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
ATR Length : Controls the ATR calculation length for the bands.
Smoothing: Adjusts the trend strength smoothing to control sensitivity to trend changes.
ATR Multiplier : Sets the width of the bands by multiplying the ATR value.
Trend Smoothing : Higher settings will result in longer periods of time required for trend to change direction from bullish to bearish and vice versa.
Propulsion Blocks | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Propulsion Blocks indicator! This new indicator can find & render ICT's propulsion blocks in the current ticker. It's highly customizable with detection, invalidation and style settings. For more information, please visit the "HOW DOES IT WORK ?" section.
Features of the new Propulsion Blocks indicator :
Render Bullish & Bearish Propulsion Blocks
Customizable Algorithm
Enable / Disable Historic Zones
Visual Customizability
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific formations on the chart. One of which this indicator uses requires a large engulfing candlestick right after another one of the opposite direction. Then if the price comes back to retest the area that two candlesticks create, then it's an order block pattern.
Propulsion blocks are a specific type of order block used in the trading methodology. They build on the concept of order blocks and aim to identify potential areas for strong price movements. They are detected when a candlestick wicks to any existing order block, retesting it. Then a strong momentum in the direction of the order block is needed for the propulsion block to get created. Check this example :
You can use them as entry / exit points, or for confirmations for your trades. For example, a successful retest attempt to a bullish propulsion block might hint a strong bullish momentum. This indicator works best when used together with other ICT concepts.
🚩UNIQUENESS
Propulsion blocks can help traders identify key levels in a chart, and can be used mainly for confirmation. This indicator can identify and show them automatically in your chart, and provides customization settings for order & propulsion block detection and invalidation. Another capability of the indicator is that it combines overlapping order & propulsion blocks so you will have a clean look at the chart without any overlapping zones.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Show Historic Zones -> This setting will hide invalidated propulsion blocks if enabled.
Max Distance To Last Bar -> This setting defines the maximum range that the indicator will find propulsion blocks to the past. Higher options will make older zones visible.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Order Block & Propulsion Block Invalidation.
Swing Length -> Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.
Wave Consolidation [LuxAlgo]The Wave Consolidation indicator uses market profiles to highlight consolidation zones based on upward and downward moves determined when a Higher-High or Lower-Low is created.
Users can control the amount of consolidation zones to display and the sensitivity of the swing point detection used to return those zones.
🔶 USAGE
These zones are intended as areas of interest to traders where price has seen historical interactions, which can be interpreted as support and resistance. By identifying these areas of interest before the price returns to them, traders are able to anticipate and prepare for various scenarios and respond dynamically to the behavior of the market, as seen below.
Rejection: A quick move away from the zone may indicate that the area is either overvalued or undervalued, leading to a fast movement in the opposite direction.
Breakthrough: Moving beyond a zone could indicate acceptance at that specific price, potentially signaling a shift in momentum or the start of a new trend. In a strong major trend, zones created from smaller trends could be used as price targets for taking profit and managing risk.
Consolidation: Holding these zones might suggest a market in balance at these levels, this could lead to opportunities for range-bound trading.
Below is an example of the Rejection and Consolidation scenarios described above.
Note: By analyzing the tests and retests of these zones, traders can also gain further insight into where participants are interacting in the market.
🔶 DETAILS
The full process for acquiring and managing these zones is described in the sub-sections below.
🔹 Creation
By only considering market movements creating a higher-high or lower-low, we can identify meaningful, directional, moves which can then be used to calculate zones.
Once a move is identified, the script calculates a volume profile spanning the length of the given move.
The width of the zones is determined starting from the POC of the profile and expanding outwards until the value of the profile's row falls below the profile's average.
Note: By increasing the "Multiplier" Input, Users can increase the threshold the script uses to determine zone width in multiples of Standard Deviations above the Average.
While this area is similar to a VP Value Area, it is not intended to replicate a value zone. The calculation is not concerned with capturing any % of the total profile's volume within the zone and only analyzes based on a fixed inclusion threshold.
🔹 Management
To keep clutter to a minimum, If a new zone overlaps a recently created zone, the zones are grouped as one. This is especially helpful in areas where prices are ranging, creating multiple zones in a very similar area.
Zones before management:
Zones after management:
🔹 Deletion
Just because a zone is crossed, does not make it immediately unimportant!
Once a Zone is mitigated (crossed in the opposite direction of its bias) it is reduced to a single dotted line representing the outer threshold for the zone. These lines are important to watch, as the price will often retest a break. For this reason, they will stay on the chart until the next swing point is detected when they will finally be deleted for good.
Below is an example of activity around a broken zone before it is deleted.
Below is the same example 2bBars later , once the new swing is confirmed, the dotted lines are deleted and new zones are created.
Notice how the newly formed resistance zone is in the same area where we noticed sellers previously.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Structure
Display Structure: Determines if swing structures are displayed.
Structure Length: Sets Length for structure identification.
🔹 Zones
Volume-Based Calculations: Opt to use a "Volume" based Profile Calculation instead of the default "Price Action" based Calculation.
Display Count: Sets the specific number of bullish and bearish zones to display on the chart.
Multiplier: Sets the multiplier to use for the value cut-off for determining zone boundaries.
🔹 Style
Display Average Lines: Toggles on/off the average (mid) lines for the zones.
Opening Range & Prior Day High/Low [Gorb]Introduction:
Opening Range & Prior Day High/Low indicator is an easy to use day traders tool. This indicator automatically plots the previous days high and low, as well as drawing a box from the opening range that the user specifies in the settings. These two together can help provide an indication of market sentiment and price trends for the day. They are often used as a trading strategy for day traders.
Overview:
The Opening Range , draws a box from the high to the low of the user defined time period and is extended until the end of the trading session. Most common are the 5/15/30min opening ranges.
Prior Day High/Low , draws lines from the previous days high and low that extend across the current session. These are used as support/resistance and also a marker to see market sentiment by crossing one of these levels.
The indicator is designed for all kinds of traders, offering a simple approach to automatically plot levels for you.
Features:
All skill-level friendly presets, easy to enable with one-click
Opening Range: Allows user to choose what time the range starts and ends to measure the high & low.
Extend Range Lines: allows the user to choose when the box stops extending according to the trading session time.
Enable Opening Range Box: allows the user to choose to plot the opening range or not.
ORB Border Color: allows the user to change the box border color.
ORB Box Shade Color: allows the user to change the background of the opening range box.
ORB Line Width: allows users to chose the width of the opening range box lines.
Enable Previous Day High: allows users to enable the previous days high to be plotted.
Enable Previous Day Low: allows users to enable the previous days high to be plotted.
Previous Day High Color: allows users to choose the color for this line.
Previous Day Low Color: allows users to choose the color for this line.
All colors are changeable for the user to customize to their liking.
Usage Demonstration
In the image below, we can see a basic example of how these 3 features function.
As explained above, the opening range is customizable to meet the users needs and can be disabled with one click. Same goes for the prior day high(green) and low(red) lines. All 3 are plotted each day automatically for the user if enabled.
In the image below, we can see an example of using the opening range break and prior day high together for a trading strategy.
This is a great example of using the prior day high with the opening range to use as a day trading strategy. It provides the trader with levels to watch for price to break out from for possible trade setups.
In this next image, we can see a failed breakdown from the opening range that results in a bullish breakout.
The first move was a fake breakdown with the failed rejection on the retest of the opening range lows. This led to a breakout above the range and a confirmation bounce on the breakout retest. Price did break above the prior day high and confirmed with a retest bounce on that level as well.
In the image below, we can see how previous days levels can act as resistance to use with the opening range.
Price didn't reject the opening range low, but it did reject the prior day high for the second time. This could be used as an entry or once price breaks down out of the opening range again.
Conclusion:
We believe in providing user-friendly tools to help speed up traders technical analysis and implement easy trading strategies. The goal is to provide a user-friendly indicator to automatically draw opening ranges and previous days levels to suit the users needs and trading style.

Directional Sentiment LineRepost with explanation and description:
This is a simple SMA based indicator that I have, for lack of a better term, called directional sentiment line.
How it works:
The ribbon/band:
The main band tracks 4 SMAs, the Open, High, Low and Close.
The user can input the length for lookback time, I do 75 and I have it defaulted at 75, however you can do whatever time frame you prefer.
The color of the indicator changes based on the overall trend. Green means an uptrend and red means a downtrend.
When the stock is trading within the band, you generally want to avoid a trend until you see a break out one way or the other. In the image below, you see the green arrow pointing to an area where it re-tests the band but the band remains green to affirm there is support. It then bounces off.
The red arrow, you see that the band is flashing red, meaning that it seems to be losing support and its best to wait for a break out one way or the other prior to taking the trade:
The outer lines:
You will see the two outer bands which generally appear blue while a stock is trading within them.
These are the SMAs of the highest high and lowest low in your defined period (default 75).
They can act as moving targets.
When the colour of one of them changes orange, it means the stock is trading above or below them. If the highest high turns orange, it means the stock is trading high above the bands and highest high SMA. Inverse for the lowest low. See the image below:
The purple arrows are pointing to these max band lines and show how they change colour depending on the location of the highest high.
How to use it:
So I made this simply to give me a reference point for day trades off open. However, looking at the large timeframes, I do see there is quite a lot of potential for larger timeframe analyses as well.
I recommend playing around with it and seeing what you like. But I can give you the rules I use for this as a day trading aid:
My Rules:
1. If stock opens below DSL, wait to see if it will retest. It naturally likes to continually make contact with the DSL line at random intervals:
2. If stock opens above DSL, again wait for re-test:
A hold above DSL = Bullish
A break and hold below DSL = bearish
3. When playing a breakout (sentiment shift from bearish to bullish or vice versa), wait for a retest of the line because frequently, there are fakeouts:
A re-test and bounce off the line confirms a breakout. A re-test and fails confirms a continuation of the predominate sentiment.
For further reference, I have done a tutorial video below:

Divergence Cheat Sheet'Divergence Cheat Sheet' helps in understanding what to look for when identifying divergences between price and an indicator. The strength of a divergence can be strong, medium, or weak. Divergences are always most effective when references prior peaks and on higher time frames. The most common indicators to identify divergences with are the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Moving average convergence divergence (MACD).
Regular Bull Divergence: Indicates underlying strength. Bears are exhausted. Warning of a possible trend direction change from a downtrend to an uptrend.
Hidden Bull Divergence: Indicates underlying strength. Good entry or re-entry. This occurs during retracements in an uptrend. Nice to see during the price retest of previous lows. “Buy the dips."
Regular Bear Divergence: Indicates underlying weakness. The bulls are exhausted. Warning of a possible trend direction change from an uptrend to a downtrend.
Hidden Bear Divergence: Indicates underlying weakness. Found during retracements in a downtrend. Nice to see during price retests of previous highs. “Sell the rallies.”
Divergences can have different strengths.
Strong Bull Divergence
Price: Lower Low
Indicator: Higher Low
Medium Bull Divergence
Price: Equal Low
Indicator: Higher Low
Weak Bull Divergence

S/R Barry, extended by PeterOSimple script showing S/R lines.
I have extended this script
What have I added precisely? I extended S/R lines. Now there are 2 most recent support lines and 2 most recent resistance lines visible on the chart at all times.
Original S/R Barry script showed only 1 support and 1 resistance lines at a time. So it was showing where the price reversed, but didn't provide value in "retest" situation. Extended version is aimed at working with these "retests".
Enjoy!
BK AK-Warfare Formations👑 BK AK-Warfare Formations — Geometric Structure, Tactical Readability 👑
Built for traders who want validated structure (channels/wedges/triangles) without chart clutter — with compact tags, hover briefings, filtered alerts, and forward-projected battle lines.
🎖️ Full Credit — Foundation Engine (Trendoscope)
Original foundation (Trendoscope Auto Chart Patterns):
The entire pattern engine (multi-zigzag scanning, pivot logic, trendline-pair validation, geometric classification, overlap handling, pattern caps, and the base drawing framework) is by Trendoscope — one of the strongest Pine engineers on TradingView and the creator of the underlying detection architecture.
This script keeps that engine intact. My work is a tactical layer on top: readability + interaction + alerts + forward structure projection.
🧠 What This Script Does (User-Facing Output)
This indicator automatically detects and draws these geometric formations on price:
Channels
AC — Ascending Channel
DC — Descending Channel
RC — Ranging Channel
Wedges
RWE / FWE — Rising/Falling Wedge (Expanding)
RWC / FWC — Rising/Falling Wedge (Contracting)
Triangles
ATC / DTC — Ascending/Descending Triangle (Contracting)
ATE / DTE — Ascending/Descending Triangle (Expanding)
CT — Converging Triangle
DT — Diverging Triangle
You can display either the full pattern name or short tactical tags so structure stays visible without burying price.
🔍 How It Detects (So You Know It’s Not Random)
Trendoscope’s engine follows a strict geometric workflow:
1) Multi-Zigzag Sweep (micro → macro)
The script runs multiple zigzag configurations (up to 4) so it can detect the same market at different swing sensitivities — from tighter formations to broader ones.
2) Pivot Structure Validation (5 or 6 pivots)
A formation is only eligible when the swing sequence provides a valid pivot set (typically 5 or 6 pivots depending on your setting).
3) Trendline-Pair Validation + Geometry Classification
Two boundary trendlines are built and validated:
Upper boundary anchored to pivot highs
Lower boundary anchored to pivot lows
Then the engine measures geometry to classify:
Parallel → Channel
Converging / Diverging with same direction → Wedge
Converging / Diverging with opposing direction → Triangle
4) Quality Controls (optional but recommended)
Error threshold controls tolerance for line fit
Flat threshold controls what qualifies as “flat”
Bar ratio verification checks proportionality of swing spacing
Avoid overlap prevents stacking noisy patterns
Max pattern caps keeps chart readable
Net effect: You get validated geometry, not doodles.
🧩 BK Enhancements — Why This Publication Exists (Not a Mashup)
This publication is not “two indicators glued together.” It’s a single detection engine plus an execution-oriented interface layer built specifically to solve real pain points:
A) Tactical Labels (Clarity Under Pressure)
Short-form tags (AC/DC/RWE/CT…) to keep charts readable
Independent transparency controls (label text + background)
Optional hover tooltips that show full pattern name + directional bias (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral)
How it works together: Trendoscope detects/draws → BK label layer converts to short tags + applies transparency + tooltip overlay.
B) Alert System Upgrades (Signal Routing, Not Spam)
Alerts are filtered by:
Bias: Bullish / Bearish / Neutral
Category: Channel / Wedge / Triangle
So instead of “New Pattern!” noise, you can route only what you trade.
How it works together: When the engine confirms a pattern, BK’s alert router reads the pattern name → derives bias/category → checks your enabled filters → sends only approved alerts.
C) Pattern Border Extension (Forward Battlefield Edges)
Optional feature to extend only the two true boundary lines of the pattern forward by N bars so you can plan:
where price might react
where breaks/retests become obvious
where entries/invalidations belong
This extension logic is selective (it avoids extending zigzag legs/pivot scribbles) and attempts to extend the best-matching border pair only.
How it works together: After patterns are drawn, BK scans existing pattern lines → identifies the border pair → extends those borders forward.
⚙️ Core Controls (What You Actually Tune)
Scanning / Quality
Zigzag lengths & depths (swing sensitivity)
Pivots used: 5 vs 6
Error tolerance + flat threshold
Bar ratio verification
Overlap avoidance + repaint behavior
Max patterns displayed
Display / Readability
Theme colors or custom palette
Transparency for pattern lines/labels
Short labels ON/OFF
Tooltips ON/OFF
Border extension ON/OFF + extend bars
Alerts
Enable alerts overall
Filter by bias
Filter by category (Channel/Wedge/Triangle)
🗺️ How To Use It (Practical, Not Fantasy)
Channels: trade the lane — entries near the boundary, invalidation outside the structure
Wedges: watch compression/expansion and breaks + retests (distribution/accumulation behavior often shows here)
Triangles: plan edges, not the middle — compression → expansion is the whole point
This script gives structure. You still decide execution rules (entry trigger, invalidation, targets).
🧑🏫 BK / AK
AK is honor — my mentor’s standard: patience, clean execution, no gambling.
👑 King Solomon’s Standard
This is warfare—market warfare—so we move by wisdom, not emotion:
“By wise counsel you will wage your own war, and in a multitude of counselors there is safety.” — Proverbs 24:6
BK AK-Warfare Formations — where formation meets judgment, and judgment meets execution.

Volume-Weighted Fibonacci PivotThis indicator automatically plots dynamic Fibonacci retracement and extension levels based on a volume-weighted pivot point within a user-defined lookback period or date range. It intelligently calculates a central "pivot" price biased toward high-volume bars, then draws symmetric levels both upward (extensions) and downward (retracements) for balanced confluence analysis.
How It Works (Technical Methodology)
Lookback Period Determination
Multiple filter modes control the data range used for calculations:
"Last X Bars": Fixed number of recent bars (default 400, max 4999).
"Manual Date": User-specified start date.
"Interactive (Chart)": Confirmed start date via input.
"None": Full available history (falls back to max bars).
Optionally, when using "Last X Bars", calculations can pull data from a higher/lower user-selected timeframe via request.security() for multi-timeframe alignment.
A dotted vertical line marks the start point in date-based modes.
Range and Pivot Calculation
Within the selected period:
Highest high and lowest low define the full price range.
Average volume is computed across the period.
Volume-Weighted Pivot: Average close price only from bars where volume > average volume (fallback to simple midpoint if no high-volume bars).
This creates a "smart" central pivot that leans toward areas of greater participation, often aligning with institutional activity.
Fibonacci Level Generation
User-configurable ratios (default: 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, 1.0, 1.272, 1.414, 1.618).
Levels are calculated symmetrically around the volume-weighted pivot:
Upward: Pivot + (Range × Ratio × Correction Factor) – teal/cyan shades.
Downward: Pivot - (Range × Ratio × Correction Factor) – red shades.
Correction Factor (default 0.5): Scales level spacing for tighter/wider grids without altering ratios.
Only the user-defined number of active lines (default 9) are drawn.
Visual Construction
Central Pivot Line: Thick yellow horizontal line with label showing exact price.
Up/Down Levels: Dashed lines extended into the future, labeled with ratio direction ("Up" or "Dn").
All objects redraw only on the last bar for performance, clearing previous drawings.
Multi-Timeframe Option
When enabled with "Last X Bars":
Pulls high/low/volume data from specified timeframe.
Aligns the pivot and levels to higher-timeframe structure while displaying on current chart – ideal for intraday traders seeking HTF confluence.
How to Use
This tool provides clean, volume-aware Fibonacci grids for identifying potential support/resistance, reversal zones, and targets.
Volume-Weighted Pivot: Often acts as a strong mean reversion level or fair value area.
Upward Levels (Teal): Potential resistance/extensions in bullish moves; watch for reactions on retests.
Downward Levels (Red): Potential support/retracements in bearish moves.
Confluence: High probability when price reacts at levels aligning with other tools (order blocks, pivots, volume profile).
Correction Factor: Lower values (<0.5) for tighter grids in ranging markets; higher (>0.5) for trending markets.
Multi-Timeframe Mode: Use on lower charts (e.g., 15m) with HTF input (e.g., 4H or Daily) to project major structure levels.
Common Setups:
Pullbacks to 0.618–0.786 zones for continuation entries.
Breaks beyond 1.0–1.618 for extension targets.
Reactions near pivot line for mean reversion trades.
Adjust ratios and active line count to match your preferred Fibonacci style (classic retracement vs. extensions).
Disclaimer
This indicator is a technical analysis tool and should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always use proper risk management.
Support & Resistance Zone Hunter [BOSWaves]Support & Resistance Zone Hunter - Dynamic Structural Zones with Real-Time Breakout Intelligence
Overview
The Support & Resistance Zone Hunter is a professional-grade structural mapping framework designed to automatically detect high-probability support and resistance areas in real time. Unlike traditional static levels or manually drawn zones, this system leverages pivot detection, range thresholds, and optional volume validation to create dynamic zones that reflect the true structural architecture of the market.
Zones evolve as price interacts with their boundaries. The first touch of a zone determines its bias - bullish, bearish, or neutral - and the system tracks the full lifecycle of each zone from formation, testing, and bias establishment to potential breakout events. Diamond-shaped breakout signals highlight structurally significant price expansions while filtering noise using a configurable cooldown period.
By visualizing market structure in this way, traders gain a deeper understanding of price behavior, trend momentum, and areas where liquidity and reactive forces are concentrated.
Theoretical Foundation
The Support & Resistance Zone Hunter is built on the premise that meaningful structural zones arise from two core principles:
Pivot-Based Turning Points : Only significant highs and lows that represent actual swings in price are considered.
Contextual Validation : Zones must pass minimum range criteria and optional volume thresholds to ensure their relevance.
Markets naturally generate numerous micro-pivots that do not carry predictive significance. By filtering out minor swings and validating zones against volume and range, the system isolates levels that are more likely to attract future price interaction or act as catalysts for breakout moves.
This framework captures not only where price is likely to react but also the direction of potential pressure, providing a statistically grounded, visually intuitive representation of market structure.
How It Works
The Support & Resistance Zone Hunter constructs zones through a multi-layered process that blends pivot logic, range validation, and real-time bias determination:
1. Pivot Detection Core
The indicator identifies pivot highs and pivot lows using a configurable lookback period. Zones are only considered valid when both a top and bottom pivot are present.
2. Zone Qualification Engine
Prospective zones must satisfy two conditions:
Range Threshold : The distance between pivot high and low must exceed the minimum percentage set by the user.
Volume Requirement : If enabled, the current volume must exceed the 50-period moving average.
Only zones meeting these criteria are drawn, reducing noise and emphasizing high-probability structural levels.
3. Zone Lifecycle
Once a valid top and bottom pivot exist:
The zone is created starting from the pivot formation bar.
Zones remain active until both boundaries have been touched by price.
The first boundary touched establishes bias: resistance first → bullish bias ,support first → bearish bias, neither → neutral.
Inactive zones stop expanding but remain visible historically to maintain a clear structural context.
4. Visual Rendering
Active zones are displayed as filled boxes with color corresponding to their bias. Top, bottom, and midpoint lines are drawn for reference. Once a zone becomes inactive, its lines are removed while the filled box remains as a historical footprint.
5. Breakout Detection
Breakout signals occur when price closes above the top boundary or below the bottom boundary of an active zone. The system applies a cooldown period and requires price to return to the zone since the previous breakout to prevent signal spam. Bullish and bearish breakouts are visually represented by diamond-shaped markers with configurable colors.
Interpretation
The Support & Resistance Zone Hunter provides a structural view of market balance:
Bullish Zones : Form when resistance is tested first, indicating upward pressure and potential continuation.
Bearish Zones : Form when support is tested first, reflecting downward pressure and continuation risk.
Neutral Zones : Fresh zones that have not yet been interacted with, representing undiscovered liquidity.
Breakout Diamonds : Highlight significant structural price expansions, helping traders identify confirmed continuation moves while filtering noise.
Zones do not simply indicate past levels; they dynamically reflect the evolving battle between buyers and sellers, providing actionable context for both trend continuation and reversion strategies.
Strategy Integration
The Support & Resistance Zone Hunter is versatile and can be applied across multiple trading approaches:
Trend Continuation : Use bullish and bearish zones to confirm directional bias. Breakout diamonds indicate structural continuation opportunities.
Reversion Entries : Neutral zones often act as magnets in ranging markets, allowing for high-probability mean-reversion setups.
Breakout Trading : Diamonds mark true structural expansions, reducing false breakout risk and guiding stop placement or momentum entries.
Liquidity Zone Alignment : Combining the indicator with order block, breaker, or volume-based tools helps validate zones against broader market participation.
Technical Implementation Details
Pivot Engine : Two-sided pivot detection based on configurable lookback.
Zone Qualification : Minimum range requirement and optional volume filter.
Bias Logic : Determined by the first boundary touched.
Zone Lifecycle : Active until both boundaries are touched, historical visibility retained.
Breakout Signals : Diamond markers with cooldown filtering and price-return validation.
Visuals : Transparent filled zones with live top, bottom, and midpoint lines.
Suggested Optimal Parameters
Pivot Lookback : 10 - 30 for intraday, 20 - 50 for swing trading.
Minimum Range % : 0.5 - 2% for crypto or indices, 1 - 3% for metals or forex.
Volume Filter : Enable for assets with inconsistent liquidity; disable for consistently liquid markets.
Breakout Cooldown : 5 - 20 bars depending on volatility.
These suggested parameters should be used as a baseline; their effectiveness depends on the asset and timeframe, so fine-tuning is expected for optimal performance.
Performance Characteristics
High Effectiveness:
Markets with clear pivot structure and reliable volume.
Trending symbols with consistent retests.
Assets where zones attract repeated price interaction.
Reduced Effectiveness:
Random walk markets lacking structural pivots.
Low-volatility periods with minimal price reaction.
Assets with irregular volume distribution or erratic price action.
Integration Guidelines
Use zone color as contextual bias rather than a standalone signal.
Combine with structural tools, order blocks, or volume-based indicators for confluence.
Validate zones on higher timeframes to refine lower timeframe entries.
Treat breakout diamonds as confirmation of continuation rather than independent triggers.
Disclaimer
The Support & Resistance Zone Hunter provides structural zone mapping and breakout analytics. It does not predict price movement or guarantee profitability. Success requires disciplined risk management, proper parameter calibration, and integration into a comprehensive trading strategy.
