ES to SPX Lead (RTH Adaptive)Very simple script designed especially to trade CFD but also scalping.
Only RTH (you'll understand why)
Not a stand-alone indicator, e.g., an external event may hit the index and /ES leading nature will become meaningless. Same with a sudden crash on a Mag7 stock.
Uses Z Score to evaluate if /Es is leading SPX (or not) and /ES VWAP to establish bullish (+1) or bearish territory (-1). Histogram is the product of Z Score times VWAP status, red or green depending.
Z score goes from -2 to +2.
Zscore reading: 0.4 < |Z| < 1.2 is the trading zone.
|Z| <0.4 is sort of neutral shifting gears zone, a no-trade and may be transition moment.
Middle numbers show max. limits based on actual volatility (i.e. when to exit and when definitely not to enter a trade).
Grey stripes is NO TRADE zone.
Final number is the composite histogram value.
So:
Textbook bullish: /ES above VWAP and Z Score positive
Textbook negative: /ES below VWAP and Z score negative
If Green Histogram & negative Z Score, you may enter bearish pullback trades making sure Z score is in the sweet spot bracket.
If Red histogram & negative Z score, it's a conflict state, signals are not alined. Holds a bullish nature but it may be a warning sign.

RSI: Evolved [DAFE]RSI: Evolved : The Ultimate Momentum Intelligence Engine
30+ RSI Engines. 15+ Zero-Lag Smoothers. The Revolutionary Quantum Horizon. This is Not Just an RSI. This is the Evolution of Momentum.
█ PHILOSOPHY: BEYOND THE OSCILLATOR, INTO THE NEXUS
The standard Relative Strength Index is a relic. It is a brilliant, timeless concept trapped in a rigid, one-dimensional formula developed in the 1970s. It assumes all market momentum is uniform, that all volatility is equal, and that a single mathematical lens is sufficient to view the infinitely complex character of modern markets. It is not.
RSI: Evolved was not created to be another RSI. It was engineered to be the definitive evolution of momentum analysis. This is not an indicator; it is a powerful, interactive research environment. It is a laboratory where you, the trader, can move beyond the static "one-size-fits-all" approach and forge a momentum oscillator that is perfectly adapted to the unique physics of your market, timeframe, and trading style.
This suite deconstructs the very DNA of the RSI, rebuilding it with a library of over 30 distinct, mathematically diverse calculation engines . From timeless classics and exotic variations to proprietary DAFE quantum models, this suite provides an unparalleled arsenal for quantifying the unseen forces of market momentum.
█ THE EVOLUTION: WHAT MAKES THIS UNLIKE ANY OTHER RSI?
This is not just a collection of features; it is a seamlessly integrated, multi-layered analytical system. It stands in a class of its own for several key reasons:
The 30+ Algorithm Core: At its heart is a library of over 30 unique RSI calculation engines. You can now choose an engine based on its mathematical properties—whether you need the zero-lag responsiveness of a Hull RSI, the time-warping capability of a Laguerre RSI, or the predictive power of a DAFE Quantum Fusion RSI.
Advanced Post-Processing: After the RSI is calculated, it passes through a multi-stage refinement process. First, choose from over 15+ professional-grade smoothing algorithms to create a crystal-clear signal. Then, activate the intelligent Filter Module to scale the RSI's output based on trend, volatility, or momentum regimes.
The Quantum Horizon & Temporal Wave: This is a revolutionary leap in data visualization. The indicator projects the historical momentum waves from higher timeframes directly onto your main price chart as a futuristic, holographic overlay. You can now see the alignment (or divergence) of macro momentum without ever looking away from price action. This is multi-timeframe analysis evolved into an art form.
Dynamic, Volatility-Adaptive Zones: Static 70/30 levels are obsolete. Evolved's "Quantum Zones" are alive; they "breathe" with market volatility. They automatically widen during powerful trends to keep you in a winning trade and tighten during choppy consolidation to help you catch reversals with greater precision.
Comprehensive Analytical Modules: This is a full suite of institutional-grade tools, including a powerful regular and hidden Divergence Engine , a multi-timeframe Consensus Dashboard , and dynamic RSI Bands (Bollinger, Keltner, etc.) plotted directly on the oscillator.
█ THE QUANTUM HORIZON & TEMPORAL WAVE: SEEING MOMENTUM IN 4D
This groundbreaking feature fundamentally changes how you interact with multi-timeframe momentum data. The Quantum Horizon is a dedicated visualization module that projects up to three "Temporal Waves" directly onto your main price chart. Each wave is a historical representation of a momentum oscillator (RSI, MFI, or Stoch RSI) pulled from a higher timeframe of your choice. Instead of flipping between charts or cluttering your screen with multiple indicators, you get an immediate, intuitive, and aesthetically stunning view of the market's complete momentum structure.
Each Temporal Wave is a self-contained universe, rendered as a glowing, flowing line within its own gridded channel. This channel is not just for show; it represents the 0-100 scale of the oscillator, with key 30, 50, and 70 levels marked for reference. You can see the history of momentum, its peaks, its troughs, and its crossovers with its own signal line. This allows you to visually identify macro divergences, trend alignment, and exhaustion points on your primary trading chart, transforming your analysis from a fragmented process into a single, unified experience. This is no longer just an indicator; it is a true Heads-Up Display for the flow of time and momentum.
█ THE ARSENAL: A DEEP DIVE INTO THE RSI & SMOOTHING ENGINES
This is your library of mathematical DNA. Understanding your tools is the first step to mastery. The 30+ RSI types are grouped into distinct families, each with a unique philosophy.
THE RSI ENGINE FAMILIES
The Classics (Wilder's, Cutler's, EMA, WMA): These are the foundational building blocks of momentum analysis. They provide a reliable, time-tested baseline. Wilder's uses the RMA for a unique smoothing characteristic, while Cutler's uses the SMA for a more direct, arithmetic average of gains and losses. The EMA and WMA versions offer increased responsiveness by weighting recent price action more heavily.
The Low-Lag Warriors (DEMA, TEMA, Hull, ZLEMA): This family is engineered specifically to combat the inherent lag of classical averages. The Double and Triple EMA (DEMA, TEMA) use a composite of multiple EMAs to reduce latency. The Zero-Lag EMA (ZLEMA) attempts to remove lag by adjusting the source price with its own past data. The Hull RSI is a standout, using a weighted moving average calculation to achieve a remarkable balance of extreme smoothness and near-zero lag, making it ideal for scalping.
The Exotics (Laguerre, Connors, Fisher, KAMA): These engines employ advanced mathematical concepts to view momentum through a different lens. The Laguerre RSI , based on John Ehlers' work, uses a time-warping, non-linear filter that can be extremely responsive to changes in trend. The Fisher Transform RSI normalizes the output to a Gaussian distribution, making peaks and troughs sharper and more defined for clearer signals. The KAMA Adaptive RSI is a "smart" algorithm that automatically slows its calculation in choppy markets and speeds it up in strong trends.
The Volume-Based (Volume-Weighted, MFI, VWAP-Weighted): This family infuses price momentum with volume data, providing a measure of conviction. They answer not just "how fast is price moving?" but "how much participation is behind the move?". The Money Flow RSI (MFI) is a classic, while the Volume-Weighted and VWAP-Weighted versions directly incorporate volume into the gain/loss calculation, giving more weight to high-volume bars.
The DAFE Proprietary Engines (The "God Mode" Algos): The crown jewels of the Laboratory, these are custom-built, proprietary algorithms you will not find anywhere else.
DAFE Quantum Fusion: This engine calculates RSI on three harmonic timeframes simultaneously (based on the Golden Ratio) and "superimposes" them using a dynamic weighting system based on volume and momentum confidence. It is the most robust and balanced all-rounder.
DAFE Kinetic Energy: Based on the physics principle that Momentum = Mass × Velocity. Standard RSI only sees Velocity (price change). Kinetic RSI weights every price move by Relative Volume (Mass), measuring the true "force" of the market.
DAFE Spectral: This engine uses concepts from Digital Signal Processing to analyze the frequency of price moves. It automatically differentiates between the "Signal" (the underlying trend) and the "Noise" (the chop), and adapts its calculation speed accordingly.
DAFE Entropy Flow: A unique engine that uses Information Theory to measure market "disorder." In chaotic, high-entropy markets, it automatically dampens its own signal to avoid whipsaws. In orderly, low-entropy trends, it sharpens its signal to be more responsive.
THE POST-SMOOTHING FILTERS
After your primary RSI is calculated, you can pass it through one of over 15 advanced filters for unparalleled clarity.
Low-Lag (Hull, DEMA, TEMA): Ideal for responsive smoothing that tracks the raw RSI closely.
Adaptive (KAMA, VIDYA): Perfect for smart, regime-aware smoothing that is slow in chop and fast in trends.
DSP & Scientific (SuperSmoother, Butterworth, Gaussian, Jurik-Style): The pinnacle of signal processing. These filters provide the absolute cleanest signal with minimal lag, leveraging advanced digital signal processing techniques to surgically remove noise.
█ THE ANALYTICAL MODULES: BEYOND THE LINE
Dynamic Zones: Your overbought/oversold levels (e.g., 70/30) are no longer static lines. They are living, breathing zones that respond to market volatility. They automatically widen during powerful, high-volatility trends to prevent you from selling a strong uptrend too early. Conversely, they tighten during low-volatility consolidation, allowing you to catch smaller, mean-reverting moves with greater precision. This is a crucial evolution for trading in modern, dynamic markets.
Divergence Engine: The automated engine works tirelessly in the background to detect critical disconnects between price and momentum. It automatically identifies and plots both Regular Divergences (which often signal major trend reversals) and Hidden Divergences (which often signal trend continuations after a pullback) with clear on-chart and in-pane markers and lines.
MTF Dashboard: Context is everything. This module provides an instant read on the momentum across three higher timeframes of your choice. The "Consensus" reading tells you if all timeframes are aligned ("ALL BULL" or "ALL BEAR"), providing powerful contextual confirmation for your trades and helping you avoid taking signals that go against the macro flow.
RSI Bands: This module applies a full-fledged band methodology (Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channels, etc.) directly to the RSI line itself. A pierce of the upper or lower band is a powerful sign of a statistical extreme, often preceding a sharp reversion back to the mean. A "squeeze" in the RSI bands often precedes an explosive move in momentum.
Signal Line & Histogram: The fast-moving RSI line is paired with a slower, smoother Signal Line of your choice. Crossovers between these two lines can be used as effective entry/exit triggers that are often more reliable than simple overbought/oversold levels. The histogram visually represents the momentum (the velocity and acceleration) of the RSI itself, turning from light to dark green in a strengthening uptrend, for example.
█ DEVELOPMENT PHILOSOPHY
RSI: Evolved was forged from a single, guiding principle: momentum is not a fixed property; it is a dynamic, multi-faceted force with a unique character in every market. This tool was designed for the trader who is no longer satisfied with a one-size-fits-all indicator. It is for the analyst, the tinkerer, the scientist—the individual who seeks to deconstruct, understand, and master the hidden physics of market momentum. This is a tool for forging your own alpha, not just following a lagging line.
RSI: Evolved is designed to give you that patience and discipline, providing a crystal-clear, multi-dimensional view of momentum so you can act with precision when the perfect setup finally arrives.
█ DISCLAIMER AND BEST PRACTICES
THIS IS AN ADVANCED ANALYTICAL TOOL: This indicator provides intelligence on momentum, not financial advice. It should be used as a core component of a complete trading strategy.
RISK MANAGEMENT IS PARAMOUNT: All trading involves substantial risk. Never risk more capital than you are prepared to lose.
START WITH A ROBUST BASE: The "DAFE Quantum Fusion" engine with the "SuperSmoother" is an exceptionally powerful and well-balanced starting point for most markets.
USE CONFLUENCE: The highest probability signals occur when multiple modules agree. For example: a Regular Bullish Divergence, as the RSI crosses up from an Extreme Oversold Dynamic Zone, while the Quantum Horizon shows the higher timeframes are also starting to turn up.
"The hard part is not making the decision to buy or sell, but having the patience and discipline to wait for the right setup."

Crypto RSI AdvancedThe Crypto RSI Advanced Indicator: A Multi-Dimensional Market Assessment Tool
This document outlines the unique features, functionality, implementation, and theoretical foundation of the "Crypto RSI Advanced" indicator. It is designed to be far more than a simple oscillator; it is a comprehensive analytical suite that enhances the classic Relative Strength Index (RSI) by incorporating trend-filtered signals, visual context, and real-time market state diagnostics.
Core Originality & Unique Value Proposition
The primary innovation of this script lies in its multi-layered, context-aware approach to momentum analysis. While traditional RSI indicators often generate signals based solely on crossing static levels (like 30/70), leading to false signals in strong trends, this script synthesizes four critical dimensions of information:
Momentum Value: The raw RSI reading.
Momentum Trend: The direction of the RSI itself, determined by its short-term trajectory.
Zone Persistence: Whether the RSI is coming from an overbought/oversold condition, adding conviction to breakouts.
Integrated Signal Confirmation: The use of a smoothed signal line (EMA of RSI) for additional validation.
This synthesis transforms the RSI from a standalone oscillator into a cohesive trading system framework that helps distinguish between potential reversal points and mere pauses within a strong trend.
What It Does & How It Achieves It
The indicator performs several interconnected functions, presented in a single pane below the price chart:
Enhanced RSI & Signal Line Plotting:
It calculates the standard RSI based on a user-defined source and length.
It plots a smoothed Signal Line (an EMA applied to the RSI values), which acts as a dynamic filter. Crosses between the RSI and this signal line can provide earlier or more refined entry clues than static level crosses alone.
Dynamic Visual Context and Alerts:
Colored Background Bands: The plot area is dynamically shaded to visually telegraph the market state at a glance: blue for oversold, orange for overbought, and white for the neutral zone.
Conditional RSI Line Coloring: The RSI line itself changes color based on its zone and position relative to the 50 mid-line, providing instant visual feedback on momentum strength and bias.
Multi-Tiered Signal Detection: The script identifies four distinct signal types:
Buy/Sell Signal: Triggered when the RSI crosses back inside the oversold/overbought band from an extreme. This aims to catch early reversals as momentum exits an extreme state.
Strong Buy/Strong Sell Signal: A higher-conviction signal triggered when the RSI crosses the oversold/overbought level from within the extreme zone. This suggests a more powerful shift in momentum as the market exits a deeply overextended condition.
Integrated Market Intelligence Panel:
A key original feature is the fixed information table in the top-right corner. This panel synthesizes all calculations into a concise, actionable snapshot for the latest bar, including:
Current precise RSI value.
Market State (e.g., Overbought, Bullish Bias, Neutral).
RSI Trend (Rising, Falling, Consolidating), assessing the oscillator's own momentum.
Active Signal Status (e.g., "Strong Buy", "No Signal").
Zone Intensity (e.g., "Extreme Overbought", "Normal").
Clear Level Annotation:
On the final bar, it draws labeled markers at the key levels (Oversold, Mid, Overbought) for a clean and permanent reference on the chart.
How to Use It
Application: This tool is designed for momentum confirmation, divergence spotting, and identifying potential reversal zones within a broader trend context. It is particularly useful for swing traders and position traders looking for higher-probability entry points, rather than for pure, high-frequency scalping.
Usage Guidelines:
Parameter Setup: Adjust the core RSI Length and Signal Length to match the volatility of your asset and trading timeframe. The default (14, 9) offers a balanced approach.
Signal Hierarchy: Prioritize "Strong" signals over regular signals, as they carry the added context of a zone breakout. A "Strong Buy" signal appearing in an overall uptrend on the higher timeframe presents a high-conviction scenario.
Synthesize Information: Do not trade on signals alone. Use the Information Panel for context. For example, a "Buy Signal" occurring while the panel shows "Market State: Oversold" and "RSI Trend: Rising" offers a congruent, multi-factor setup.
Visual Context: Use the colored bands and line colors for quick assessment. A blue (bullish) RSI line forming in the blue (oversold) shaded area provides immediate visual congruence for a potential long setup.
Confirmation: As with any oscillator, use this tool in conjunction with price action analysis (support/resistance, chart patterns) and other non-correlated indicators (e.g., a trend-following indicator like a moving average) to filter trades and avoid whipsaws in ranging markets.
Underlying Computational Philosophy
The script's logic is built upon the principle of "Contextual Momentum Analysis." The core premise is that the absolute value of the RSI is less important than its behavior relative to its recent state and trajectory.
Trend-Filtered Momentum: By analyzing the RSI's own trend (rsi_trend_up/down), the script introduces a crucial filter. A sell signal occurring while the RSI's internal trend is still rising may be less reliable, warning of a potential false signal.
Zone-Based Conviction: The distinction between a regular and a "Strong" signal is philosophically significant. It applies the concept of "impulse from an extreme." A reversal signal that originates from deep inside an extreme zone is considered to have more kinetic energy (conviction) than one that forms near the boundary.
Synthesis Over Isolation: The script deliberately avoids providing a single "answer." Instead, it presents multiple, simultaneous data points (value, trend, zone, signal line interaction, historical state) and presents them together in the information panel. This empowers the trader to make a reasoned decision based on a confluence of factors, mimicking the analytical process of a seasoned chartist.
In essence, this indicator automates and visualizes a sophisticated, multi-step analytical process that a trader would otherwise have to perform manually, thereby enhancing speed, consistency, and depth of market analysis.
Crypto MACD SignalsUnlocking Enhanced Market Insights: A Next-Generation MACD Indicator for Cryptocurrency Trading
Introduction: Beyond Traditional MACD
In the vast landscape of technical analysis tools, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) stands as one of the most ubiquitous and trusted momentum indicators. However, its classic formulation often leaves traders sifting through frequent crossovers, struggling to distinguish high-probability signals from market noise, especially in the volatile cryptocurrency markets. This script represents a significant evolution of the classic MACD, transforming it from a standalone oscillator into a comprehensive, multi-layered signal detection system. Its core originality lies not in reinventing the MACD calculation, but in augmenting it with proprietary filtering mechanisms, quantitative signal scoring, and visual prioritization to enhance decision clarity and timing.
Core Functionality: What It Does and How It Achieves It
This indicator, titled "Crypto MACD Signals," is a dedicated, non-overlay oscillator built for clarity and actionability. It performs three primary functions simultaneously:
Enhanced MACD Visualization: It plots the traditional MACD line, Signal line, and Histogram with a refined color scheme. The histogram is dynamically colored (blue for bullish, orange for bearish) but introduces a key innovation: the identification of "Huge" or "Anomalous" Bars. A bar is highlighted in bright white when its size exceeds twice the 20-bar Simple Moving Average of the absolute histogram values. This instantly draws attention to moments of exceptional momentum surge or capitulation, which often precede significant trend accelerations or reversals.
Context-Aware Signal Generation: Instead of marking every MACD line crossover, the script applies a crucial logical filter. It only plots a "BUY" signal (green upward triangle) when a bullish crossover occurs while the histogram is below the zero line. Conversely, a "SELL" signal (red downward triangle) is plotted only when a bearish crossover occurs while the histogram is above the zero line. This filter ensures signals are generated in the context of a potential trend reversal from an oversold or overbought state, rather than during the middle of a strong trend, dramatically increasing the signal's statistical edge. This aligns with a classic "Oscillator Reversal from Extremes" methodology within trend-following systems.
Real-Time Performance Dashboard: A fixed table in the top-right corner serves as a live statistical dashboard. It tracks and displays the total count of:
Generated Buy Signals
Generated Sell Signals
Total "Huge" Histogram Bars (both bullish and bearish)
This provides traders with an at-a-glance understanding of recent market activity—whether it has been signal-rich or quiet, and the frequency of high-momentum events—aiding in assessing the current market regime (e.g., trending vs. consolidating).
Implementation and Practical Usage
The indicator is designed for tactical swing trading and momentum-based intraday positioning in crypto assets. Its primary use case is for identifying "Pullback Entries within a Trend" and "Early Trend Reversal Confirmations."
For Trend-Following: A trader in an established uptrend would wait for a pullback that drives the MACD histogram negative. A subsequent bullish crossover that triggers a "BUY" signal, especially if accompanied by a "Huge" bullish histogram bar, offers a high-confidence entry point to re-join the trend.
For Counter-Trend/Reversal Scenarios (Scalping): The script is highly effective for a specific scalping technique: "Fading Extreme Momentum Exhaustion." A cluster of "Huge" bearish bars followed by a diminishing histogram and a bullish crossover signal can indicate selling exhaustion, presenting a short-term long scalp opportunity. The inverse applies for short scalps. The labels ("🔥") and arrows provide clear visual cues for these setups directly on the chart.
Workflow: Traders are advised to first observe the statistical table to gauge recent activity. Then, they should look for convergence between a filtered arrow signal (BUY/SELL) and the appearance of a "Huge" bar or a cluster of them. This multi-factor confirmation is the cornerstone of the strategy.
Underlying Philosophy and Calculation Logic
The script's intelligence is built on a layered philosophy of "Momentum Quantification and Contextual Validation."
Dynamic Thresholding for Anomalies: The "Huge Bar" detection does not use a fixed threshold. By comparing the current histogram value to a recent average of absolute momentum (ta.sma(math.abs(hist_line), 20)), it creates an adaptive, market-responsive benchmark. A bar that is 200% larger than recent average momentum is statistically anomalous, suggesting institutional-sized order flow or a major shift in sentiment. This is a direct application of statistical volatility band principles to momentum, not price.
Signal Filtering for Phase Alignment: The conditional logic for plotting arrows (bullish_cross and hist_line < 0) ensures the MACD crossover signal is aligned with the correct momentum phase of the market cycle. A buy signal is only valid if momentum (histogram) is coming from a "recharging" or bearish area (below zero), not when it's already extended above zero. This prevents buying at a peak and selling at a trough, which is a common pitfall of the raw indicator. This embodies the trading axiom: "Trade the turn, not the continuation."
Quantitative Self-Awareness: The integrated counter and dashboard represent a meta-analysis layer. It allows the tool to provide feedback on its own performance density. A market generating many signals might be choppy and range-bound, while a market with few signals but several "Huge Bars" might be in a strong, steady trend. This helps the trader select the appropriate strategy (trend riding vs. reversal scalping) for the current environment.
In essence, this script synthesizes several respected trading concepts: the core trend/momentum logic of MACD, the anomaly detection common to volatility-based indicators like Keltner Channels, and the signal-verification philosophy of multi-indicator systems—all packaged into a single, coherent, and visually intuitive tool specifically tuned for the unique amplitude and speed of cryptocurrency markets.
5EMA + Volume Spikes + Ultra Fast Scalp V3Description
This indicator combines 5 EMAs, volume spike detection, and an ultra-fast scalping system designed for short-term trading.
The scalping logic uses a fixed + ATR hybrid price deviation, filtered by RSI and CCI to capture extreme overbought/oversold conditions while avoiding overheated zones.
It also includes previous day levels (high, low, body high/low) extended into the current session for clear intraday reference.
Optimized for fast scalping and momentum fades on lower timeframes.
Ripster EMA Clouds with MTFCredits & Origins:
This script is a modification of the widely popular EMA Clouds system originally created by @Ripster47. Full credit goes to him for the strategy and original concept. This version simply adds a quality-of-life feature for traders who use multi-timeframe analysis.
What is this Indicator?
The Ripster EMA Clouds system uses overlapping Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) to visualize trends, momentum, and dynamic support/resistance zones. The "clouds" differ in color to indicate bullish or bearish trends, acting as a visual guide for keeping you on the right side of the trade.
What is New in This Version? (MTF Capability)
The standard version of this indicator calculates EMAs based on your current chart timeframe. If you switch from a 10-minute chart to a 1-minute chart, the clouds change completely.
I have added a "Fixed Timeframe" variable/input that allows you to "lock" the clouds to a specific timeframe, regardless of what chart you are viewing.
Why is this useful? This allows for true Multi-Timeframe (MTF) scalping.
Example: You can set the clouds to look at the 10-minute trend (identifying major support levels) but execute your entries on a 1-minute chart.
The clouds will remain locked to the 10-minute data, giving you the "big picture" view while you trade the micro-movements.
How to Use
Open the indicator settings.
Go to the Inputs tab.
Find the "Fixed Timeframe" option at the top.
Leave Empty (Default): The indicator behaves exactly like the original (adjusts to your chart).
Select a Timeframe (e.g., 10 Minutes): The clouds will lock to the 10-minute EMAs, even if you switch your chart to 1-minute or 5-seconds.
Note on Visuals When viewing Higher Timeframe (HTF) clouds on a Lower Timeframe (LTF) chart, the clouds will appear to have a "stepped" or "ladder-like" appearance. This is normal and accurate. It represents the single EMA value holding constant for that entire higher-timeframe period. This helps you see the true support level rather than a smoothed, repainted line.

# Why Short Penny Stocks?
## The Penny Stock Lifecycle
Penny stocks follow a remarkably predictable lifecycle that creates shorting opportunities:
```
PHASE 1: ACCUMULATION
└── Low volume, tight range
└── Smart money quietly building positions
PHASE 2: MARKUP / PROMOTION
└── News catalyst or promotional campaign
└── Volume increases, price begins rising
└── Early momentum traders enter
PHASE 3: DISTRIBUTION (YOUR OPPORTUNITY)
└── Parabolic move attracts retail FOMO buyers
└── Smart money selling into strength
└── Volume climax signals exhaustion
└── ⚠️ PSSP SIGNALS FIRE HERE ⚠️
PHASE 4: DECLINE
└── Support breaks, panic selling
└── Price returns toward origin
└── Short sellers profit
```
## Why Shorts Work on Penny Stocks
1. **No Fundamental Support**: Most penny stocks have no earnings, revenue, or assets to justify elevated prices
2. **Promotional Nature**: Many rallies are driven by promoters who will eventually stop
3. **Retail Exhaustion**: Retail buying power is finite—when it's exhausted, gravity takes over
4. **Float Dynamics**: Low float stocks move fast in both directions
5. **Technical Levels Matter**: VWAP, round numbers, and prior highs become self-fulfilling resistance
---
# The 7 Core Detection Systems
PSSP employs seven independent detection algorithms. Each identifies a specific type of exhaustion or reversal signal. When multiple systems fire simultaneously, the probability of a successful short dramatically increases.
---
## 1. PARABOLIC EXHAUSTION DETECTOR
### What It Detects
Identifies when price has moved too far, too fast and is likely to reverse. This system looks for the classic "blow-off top" pattern common in penny stock runners.
### Technical Logic
```
Parabolic Signal = TRUE when:
├── Consecutive green candles ≥ threshold (default: 3)
├── AND price extension from VWAP ≥ threshold ATRs (default: 1.5)
└── OR shooting star / upper wick rejection pattern forms
```
### Visual Representation
```
╱╲ ← Shooting star / upper wick
╱ ╲ (Parabolic exhaustion)
╱
╱
╱
══════════════ VWAP
╱
╱
```
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
Penny stocks are notorious for parabolic moves driven by retail FOMO. When everyone who wants to buy has bought, there's no one left to push prices higher. The shooting star pattern shows that sellers are already stepping in at higher prices.
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| Lookback Period | 10 | 3-30 | Bars to analyze for pattern |
| Extension Threshold | 1.5 ATR | 0.5-5.0 | How far above VWAP is "parabolic" |
| Consecutive Green Bars | 3 | 2-10 | Minimum green bars for exhaustion |

## 2. VWAP REJECTION SYSTEM
### What It Detects
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) is the single most important level for institutional traders. This system identifies when price tests above VWAP and gets rejected back below—a powerful short signal.
### Technical Logic
```
VWAP Rejection = TRUE when:
├── Candle high pierces above VWAP
├── AND candle closes below VWAP
├── AND candle is bearish (close < open)
└── AND rejection distance is within sensitivity threshold
```
### Visual Representation
```
High ──→ ╱╲
╱ ╲
VWAP ════════╱════╲═══════════
Close ←── Rejection
```
### Extended VWAP Signals
The system also tracks VWAP standard deviation bands. Rejection from the upper band (2 standard deviations above VWAP) is an even stronger signal.
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
- Algorithms and institutions use VWAP as their benchmark
- Failed attempts to reclaim VWAP often lead to waterfall selling
- VWAP acts as a "magnet" that price tends to revert toward
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| Rejection Sensitivity | 0.5 ATR | 0.1-2.0 | How close to VWAP for valid rejection |
| Show VWAP Line | True | - | Display VWAP on chart |
| Show VWAP Bands | True | - | Display standard deviation bands |
| Band Multiplier | 2.0 | 0.5-4.0 | Standard deviations for bands |

## 3. VOLUME CLIMAX DETECTOR
### What It Detects
Identifies "blow-off tops" where extreme volume accompanies a price spike. This often marks the exact top as it represents maximum retail participation—after which buying power is exhausted.
### Technical Logic
```
Volume Climax = TRUE when:
├── Current volume ≥ (Average volume × Climax Multiple)
├── AND one of:
│ ├── Selling into the high (upper wick > lower wick on green bar)
│ └── OR post-climax weakness (red bar following climax bar)
```
### Visual Representation
```

╱ ╲
╱ ╲
╱ ╲
╱
Volume:
▂▃▅▇██▇▅▃▂▁
↑
Volume Climax (3x+ average)
```
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
- Retail traders pile in at the top, creating volume spikes
- Market makers and smart money use this liquidity to exit
- Once the volume spike passes, there's no fuel left for higher prices
- The "smart money selling into dumb money buying" creates the top
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| Volume MA Length | 20 | 5-50 | Period for average volume calculation |
| Climax Volume Multiple | 3.0x | 1.5-10.0 | Multiple of average for "climax" |
| Show Volume Bars | True | - | Visual volume representation |
---
## 4. RSI DIVERGENCE ANALYZER
### What It Detects
Bearish divergence occurs when price makes higher highs but RSI (momentum) makes lower highs. This indicates that momentum is weakening even as price pushes higher—a warning of imminent reversal.
### Technical Logic
```
Bearish Divergence = TRUE when:
├── RSI is in overbought territory (> threshold)
├── AND RSI is declining (current < previous < prior)
└── Indicates momentum exhaustion before price catches up
```
### Visual Representation
```
Price: /\ /\
/ \ / \ ← Higher high
/ \/
/
/
RSI: /\
/ \ /\
/ \/ \ ← Lower high (DIVERGENCE)
/ \
════════════════════ Overbought (70)
```
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
- Penny stocks often push to new highs on weaker and weaker momentum
- Divergence signals that fewer buyers are participating at each new high
- Eventually, the lack of buying pressure leads to collapse
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| RSI Length | 14 | 5-30 | Standard RSI calculation period |
| Overbought Level | 70 | 60-90 | RSI level considered overbought |
| Divergence Lookback | 14 | 5-30 | Bars to look back for swing highs |

## 5. KEY LEVEL REJECTION TRACKER
### What It Detects
Identifies rejections from significant price levels where shorts are likely to be concentrated: High of Day (HOD), premarket highs, and psychological levels (whole and half dollars).
### Technical Logic
```
Level Rejection = TRUE when:
├── Price touches key level (within 0.2% tolerance)
├── AND candle is bearish (close < open)
├── AND close is in lower portion of candle range
│
├── Key Levels Tracked:
│ ├── High of Day (HOD)
│ ├── Premarket High
│ └── Psychological levels ($1.00, $1.50, $2.00, etc.)
```
### Visual Representation
```
HOD ─────────────────────────────────
╱╲ ← Rejection
╱ ╲
╱ ╲
╱
─────────────────────────────────
PM High ─────────────────────────────
```
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
- **HOD**: The high of day is where the most traders are trapped long. Failure to break HOD often triggers stop-loss cascades
- **Premarket High**: Represents overnight enthusiasm; failure to exceed often means the "news" is priced in
- **Psychological Levels**: Round numbers ($1, $2, $5) attract orders and act as natural resistance
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| Track HOD Rejection | True | - | Monitor high of day |
| Track Premarket High | True | - | Monitor premarket resistance |
| Track Psychological Levels | True | - | Monitor round numbers |
---
## 6. FAILED BREAKOUT DETECTOR
### What It Detects
Identifies "bull traps" where price breaks above resistance but immediately fails and closes back below. This traps breakout buyers and often leads to accelerated selling.
### Technical Logic
```
Failed Breakout = TRUE when:
├── Price breaks above recent high (lookback period)
├── AND one of:
│ ├── Same bar closes below the breakout level
│ └── OR following bars show consecutive red candles
```
### Visual Representation
```
╱╲
╱ ╲ ← False breakout
Recent High ══╱════╲════════════════
╱ ╲
╱ ╲
╱ ╲ ← Trapped longs panic sell
```
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
- Breakout traders enter on the break, providing exit liquidity for smart money
- When the breakout fails, these traders become trapped and must exit
- Their forced selling accelerates the decline
- Penny stocks have thin order books, making failed breakouts especially violent
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| Breakout Lookback | 5 | 2-15 | Bars to define "recent high" |
| Confirmation Bars | 2 | 1-5 | Bars to confirm failure |
---
## 7. MOVING AVERAGE BREAKDOWN SYSTEM
### What It Detects
Monitors exponential moving averages (EMAs) for bearish crossovers and price rejections. EMA crosses often signal trend changes, while rejections from EMAs indicate resistance.
### Technical Logic
```
MA Breakdown = TRUE when:
├── Bearish EMA cross (fast crosses below slow)
└── OR EMA rejection (price tests EMA from below and fails)
```
### Visual Representation
```
╱╲ ← Rejection from EMA
╱ ╲
EMA 9 ═══════════╱════╲═══════════
╲
EMA 20 ═══════════════════╲════════
╲
Bearish cross ↓
```
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
- EMAs smooth out the noise and show underlying trend direction
- When fast EMA crosses below slow EMA, it signals momentum shift
- Rejected attempts to reclaim EMAs show sellers are in control
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| Fast EMA | 9 | 3-20 | Short-term trend |
| Slow EMA | 20 | 10-50 | Medium-term trend |
| Show EMAs | True | - | Display on chart |

# Visual Elements Explained
## Chart Overlays
### VWAP Line (Blue)
- **Solid blue line** = Volume Weighted Average Price
- Price above VWAP = bullish bias
- Price below VWAP = bearish bias
- **Use**: Short when price rejects from above VWAP
### VWAP Bands (Purple circles)

# Risk Management
## Position Sizing Formula
```
Position Size = (Account Risk %) / (Stop Loss %)
Example:
- Account: $25,000
- Risk per trade: 1% = $250
- Entry: $2.00
- Stop: $2.20 (10% stop)
- Position Size: $250 / 10% = $2,500 worth
- Shares: $2,500 / $2.00 = 1,250 shares
```
## Risk Rules
### The 1% Rule
Never risk more than 1% of your account on any single trade. For a $25,000 account, max risk = $250.
### The 2x Stop Rule
If your stop gets hit twice on the same stock, stop trading it for the day. The pattern isn't working.
### The Daily Loss Limit
Set a maximum daily loss (e.g., 3% of account). Stop trading if hit.
### The Size-Down Rule
After a losing trade, reduce your next position size by 50%. Rebuild after a winner.
## Short-Specific Risks
### The Short Squeeze
- Penny stocks can squeeze violently
- ALWAYS use stops
- Never "hope" a position comes back
- Size appropriately for volatility
### The Hard-to-Borrow
- Check borrow availability before trading
- High borrow fees eat into profits
- Some stocks become HTB mid-trade
### The Halt Risk
- Penny stocks can halt on volatility
- Position size for worst-case halt against you
- Halts can open significantly higher

# Best Practices
## DO's
✅ **Wait for multiple signals** - Single signals have lower accuracy
✅ **Trade with the trend** - Short when daily trend is down
✅ **Use the dashboard** - Check signal count before entering
✅ **Respect stops** - The indicator calculates them for a reason
✅ **Size appropriately** - Penny stocks are volatile; position small
✅ **Trade liquid stocks** - Volume ≥ 500K daily average
✅ **Know the catalyst** - Understand why the stock is moving
✅ **Take partial profits** - Secure gains at T1
✅ **Journal your trades** - Track what works and what doesn't
✅ **Time your entries** - Best shorts often come 10:30-11:30 AM
## DON'Ts
❌ **Don't short strong stocks** - If it won't go down, don't force it
❌ **Don't fight the tape** - A stock going up can keep going up
❌ **Don't average up on losers** - Adding to losing shorts is dangerous
❌ **Don't ignore the dashboard** - It exists to help you
❌ **Don't overtrade** - Quality over quantity
❌ **Don't short into news** - Wait for the reaction first
❌ **Don't trade the first 5 minutes** - Too chaotic for reliable signals
❌ **Don't hold overnight** - Penny stock gaps can destroy accounts
❌ **Don't trade without stops** - Ever.
❌ **Don't trade on tilt** - After losses, take a break
## Optimal Trading Windows
| Time (ET) | Quality | Notes |
|-----------|---------|-------|
| 9:30-9:35 | ⭐ | Too volatile, avoid |
| 9:35-10:30 | ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Best shorts, morning runners exhaust |
| 10:30-11:30 | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Secondary exhaustion, HOD rejections |
| 11:30-2:00 | ⭐⭐ | Midday lull, lower quality |
| 2:00-3:00 | ⭐⭐⭐ | Afternoon setups develop |
| 3:00-3:30 | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | End of day momentum |
| 3:30-4:00 | ⭐⭐ | Closing volatility, risky |

# Troubleshooting
## Common Issues
### "Signals aren't appearing"
- Check that the relevant system is enabled in settings
- Ensure minimum signals threshold isn't too high
- Verify the stock has sufficient volume for calculations
### "Too many false signals"
- Increase minimum signals threshold
- Use more conservative settings (see Settings section)
- Focus on stocks with cleaner price action
### "Dashboard not showing"
- Ensure "Show Signal Dashboard" is enabled
- Check that your chart has enough space
- Try a different dashboard position
### "VWAP line is missing"
- VWAP requires intraday timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m, etc.)
- VWAP resets daily; won't show on daily+ charts
- Ensure "Show VWAP Line" is enabled
### "Stop loss seems too tight/wide"
- Adjust Stop ATR Multiple in Risk Management settings
- Lower multiple = tighter stop
- Higher multiple = wider stop
### "Alerts not triggering"
- Verify alert is set to the correct indicator
- Check that alert hasn't expired
- Ensure notification settings are configured in TradingView
## Performance Optimization
If the indicator is slow:
1. Reduce the number of visual elements shown
2. Disable unused signal systems
3. Use on fewer simultaneous charts
4. Close unused browser tabs

SMA Reversal Sequential MTF - Pure Confirmed Final V2SMA Reversal Sequential MTF - Detailed Indicator Manual
This indicator identifies trend reversal points based on the shape of a Simple Moving Average (SMA) and monitors these signals across multiple timeframes (MTF). By synchronizing trends from various intervals, it provides a robust framework for identifying high-probability entry points.
1. Core Logic Overview
The indicator detects "peaks" and "troughs" in the SMA to identify potential reversal points.
Bullish Reversal (UP): Occurs when the SMA turns upward after a period of decline (forming a "trough").
Bearish Reversal (DN): Occurs when the SMA turns downward after a period of inclination (forming a "peak").
In addition to detecting these turns, the indicator tracks the high/low prices of the most recent reversal points on a "Confirmed Bar" basis. When the current price breaks these levels, it confirms a trend continuation or a breakout.
2. Full Description of Input Settings
Basic Settings / Main Settings
Use Short Period (5, 4, 7) / 短期設定を使用:
true: Increases sensitivity to price movements by using shorter parameters (e.g., SMA 5). Suitable for scalping.
false: Uses standard parameters (e.g., SMA 20). Suitable for day trading and swing trading.
Timeframe Visibility / 時間足表示設定
Allows individual toggling of visibility for each timeframe's labels and lines.
Show 1M to 1m / 1M〜1m表示: Individually enable or disable the calculation and display of data for Monthly (1M), Weekly (1W), Daily (Daily), 4H, 1H, 15M, 5M, and 1m timeframes.
Hide Higher TF Settings on Lower TFs / 下位足での上位設定を非表示: When enabled, this removes lower timeframe data from higher timeframe charts to reduce visual noise.
Drawing Options / 表示オプション
Show Only Current TF Labels / 現在足のラベルのみ表示: If enabled, only labels corresponding to the chart's current interval (e.g., "5" labels on a 5M chart) will be displayed.
Show Trendlines & Channels / トレンドライン＆チャネルを表示: Automatically draws trendlines and parallel channels by connecting recent local reversal points on the current timeframe.
Show Sequential Labels / 転換点ラベル表示: Displays timeframe labels (e.g., "15", "1H") at the exact point where the SMA reversed.
Show Break Lines / ブレイクライン表示: Draws horizontal lines from the most recent peaks or troughs and displays a "BREAK" label when price crosses them.
Break Label Offset / ブレイク文字の右オフセット: Adjusts the horizontal distance of the "BREAK" label from the current bar for better visibility.
Additional Alert Settings / 追加アラート設定
Alert 1: Current + 2 Higher TFs Sync (Blue/Red) / アラート1: 現在・上位2つ同調:
Triggers a notification when the trend (UP/DN) of the current chart's timeframe, the next higher timeframe, and the second higher timeframe all align.
Alert 2: 4-TF Sync Including Current (Orange) / アラート2: 表示足を含む4足同調:
Triggers a notification when four consecutive timeframes (Current + 3 Higher) align in the same direction. This is considered a high-conviction signal.
3. How to Read the Dashboard (Table)
The compact table in the top-right corner displays the current trend status for key timeframes in real-time.
Blue Background (UP): Indicates price has broken the recent peak, confirming an uptrend for that timeframe.
Red Background (DN): Indicates price has broken the recent trough, confirming a downtrend for that timeframe.
Gray Background: Indicates the trend status is yet to be determined or is in a neutral state.
The table items are fixed to show 1D, 4H, 1H, 15M, and 5M from top to bottom. When all rows turn the same color, it indicates a strong market trend across the entire spectrum.
4. Key Feature: MTF Sync Alerts
The primary advantage of this indicator is its automation of manual Multi-Timeframe Analysis.
3-TF Sync: On a 15M chart, if the 15M, 1H, and 4H trends align, a small Blue (Buy) or Red (Sell) label appears on the chart.
4-TF Sync: If the alignment extends to a 4th timeframe (e.g., up to the Daily timeframe on a 15M chart), an Orange label is displayed, signaling a very strong trend confluence.
このインジケーター（SMA Reversal Sequential MTF）は、移動平均線（SMA）の形状からトレンドの転換点を特定し、それを複数の時間足（MTF）で監視・同期させることで、高精度なエントリーポイントを探るためのツールです。
以下に、すべてのインプット項目を含む詳細な説明をまとめました。

3足同調（SYNC）: 15分足チャートであれば「15M・1H・4H」が同じ方向を向いた時にチャート上に青（買い）または赤（売り）の小さなラベルが表示されます。
4足同調（4-TF SYNC）: さらに上位の足（15分足なら日足まで）が同調すると、オレンジ色のラベルが表示され、より強い根拠となります。
SHFE Silver Premium vs COMEX (USD/oz)This indicator measures the SHFE–COMEX silver premium/discount in USD per troy ounce.
SHFE silver is quoted in CNY per kilogram, so the script first converts SHFE:AG1! into USD/oz using the current USD/CNY exchange rate and the exact kg → troy oz factor (32.1507466). It then calculates:
Premium (USD/oz) = SHFE_USD/oz − COMEX_USD/oz
How to interpret:
Positive bars: SHFE is trading above COMEX (premium)
Negative bars: SHFE is trading below COMEX (discount)
Persistent regimes can reflect currency dynamics, regional liquidity, import/export constraints, and shifts in industrial demand.
How to use:
Add this indicator beneath the companion overlay indicator “SHFE Silver Price Discovery (USD/oz)” to keep the price chart readable while still visualizing divergence.
Watch for sustained premium expansions/contractions as inter-market confirmation signals, especially during volatile periods.
This indicator is intended for macro and inter-market analysis, not short-term scalping.
SHFE Silver Price Discovery (USD/oz)This indicator converts Shanghai Futures Exchange (SHFE) silver futures into USD per troy ounce and optionally overlays COMEX silver futures for direct, same-unit comparison.
SHFE silver is quoted in CNY per kilogram, while COMEX is quoted in USD per troy ounce. To make SHFE prices comparable on the same chart, the script:
pulls SHFE:AG1! close (CNY/kg)
pulls USD/CNY FX rate
converts to USD/oz using the exact kg → troy oz factor (32.1507466)
Why this is useful:
SHFE pricing often reflects different drivers than Western paper markets (currency effects, local liquidity, industrial demand, and regional availability). Normalizing SHFE into USD/oz lets traders and investors monitor inter-market alignment and spot periods where Eastern pricing diverges from COMEX.
How to use:
Use the SHFE USD/oz line as a “physical-demand-sensitive” reference.
Overlay COMEX to compare regional pricing and identify multi-week divergence regimes.
For the premium/discount histogram, use the companion indicator: “SHFE Silver Premium vs COMEX (USD/oz)”.
This indicator is designed for macro and inter-market analysis rather than short-term scalping.
EMA Exhaustion + ContinuationA fast, mechanical scalping system that detects EMA exhaustion, filters with RSI, and manages exits plus continuations.
This indicator is designed for ultra‑short timeframe scalping, where speed and clarity matter more than anything else. It combines three core elements into one mechanical workflow:
- EMA Spread Exhaustion
The system measures the distance between fast and slow EMAs relative to ATR. When the spread reaches extreme levels and then begins to contract, it signals exhaustion — the point where momentum is likely to stall or reverse. This gives traders a structural way to identify setups without relying on subjective “feel.”
- RSI Filter (Accelerated for Scalping)
A shortened RSI (default length 7) is normalized by ATR to match the tempo of 15‑second scalps. This filter ensures that entries only trigger when momentum aligns with the exhaustion signal, reducing false positives and keeping trades in sync with volatility.
- Entry, Exit, and Continuation Logic
- Entries:
- Long entry triggers when spread retreats, EMA‑3 crosses price, and RSI confirms bearish exhaustion (RSI < 0).
- Short entry triggers under the opposite conditions (spread retreat, EMA‑3 cross, RSI > 0).
- Icons: Blue arrow up for longs, Red arrow down for shorts.
- Exits:
- Long exits occur when price closes below the 7 EMA smoothed by SMA‑2 while all EMAs are still sloping upward.
- Icon: Yellow cross above the candle.
- Continuations:
- Long continuation triggers when price dips below EMA‑9 and then reclaims above it.
- Short continuation triggers when price closes above EMA‑9 and then reclaims below it.
- Icons: Green triangle up for long continuation, Purple triangle down for short continuation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Apply the indicator to your chart. I use 15 second chart
- Watch for blue/red arrows — these are your primary entry signals.
- Respect yellow crosses — they mark mechanical exit points.
- Use green/purple triangles to re‑engage continuation trades after shallow pullbacks. I only take the first continuation signal above/below the 20 EMA.
- Keep the RSI filter active to avoid chasing false setups.
- Combine with your risk management rules (position sizing, stop placement) for full system integrity.
Volume-Weighted FVG (Fixed)1. The Core Concept: Identifying "Institutional Footprints"
FVG (Fair Value Gap): These are "gaps" or "voids" in price created by rapid movement. The market has a natural tendency to return and "fill" these gaps.
The Volume Filter: Unlike standard FVGs, this tool highlights zones created with high trading volume (Strong FVG). These represent the "footprints" of institutional traders—the "Big Money" that truly moves the market.
2. Trading the "Wall": Rejection and Reversal
The Rejection (Bounce): A Strong FVG acts as a powerful "wall." When price returns to this zone, unfilled orders often trigger, causing the price to bounce back (reject).
The Reversal (Breakout): If this "wall" is completely breached, it triggers a cascade of stop-losses from those who bet on the bounce. This results in a violent move in the opposite direction, known as a reversal.
The Retest: Once a "wall" is broken, its role flips (e.g., support becomes resistance). Trading the first retest of a broken Strong FVG is one of the highest-probability setups in scalping.
3. The Execution: High-Precision Entry
To achieve a Profit Factor (PF) of 5.0+, we combine three elements:
Structure: Confirm the trend using Multi-Timeframe (MTF) HH/HL (Higher Highs/Higher Lows).
The Zone: Price enters a Strong FVG (Darker color).
The Trigger: Enter when an Engulfing Candle breaks through the BB20 Middle Line, confirmed by an RCI 9 reversal.
Consolidating Trend MasterA complimentary Oscillator to the Hybrid ST/EMA Trend Table Indicator to help provide confident Confluence signals and when the market is consolidating/choppy/moving sideways.

ICT IPDA LookbackThis description is tailored for the TradingView community, using the specific terminology associated with Michael Huddleston's (ICT) Interbank Price Delivery Algorithm (IPDA).
📜 TradingView Indicator Description
ICT IPDA Lookback Engine (20-40-60 Day Cycles)
Overview This indicator automates the IPDA Data Range lookback periods as taught by Michael J. Huddleston (ICT). In the Interbank Price Delivery Algorithm, time is the primary filter. The algorithm references specific lookback windows—20, 40, and 60 trading days—to seek liquidity and rebalance inefficiencies.
Instead of manually counting bars every morning, this tool plots precise vertical anchors to help you identify the Institutional Order Flow and the "Draw on Liquidity" (DOL) within the current dealing range.
🛠️ Key Features
Rolling Lookback Anchors: Automatically plots red vertical lines at the 20, 40, and 60-day intervals.
Time-Based Accuracy: Calculated using calendar-adjusted trading days to ensure the lines land on the correct institutional data points, regardless of weekends or holidays.
Multi-Asset Support: Works seamlessly across Forex, Futures, Indices, and Commodities.
Real-Time Movement: The lines shift dynamically with the current candle, maintaining the exact IPDA window as the algorithm processes new data.
💡 How to Use (ICT IPDA Logic)
Define the Context: Look back at the 20-day range (Short-term), 40-day range (Intermediate-term), and 60-day range (Long-term).
Identify PD Arrays: Use these vertical lines to anchor your search for Old Highs/Lows, Fair Value Gaps (FVG), and Order Blocks (OB) within those specific windows.
Determine Premium vs. Discount: Check where the current price sits relative to the Highs and Lows of these three ranges to establish your Daily Bias.
Quarterly Shifts: Monitor how price reacts as it reaches the extremity of the 60-day lookback, often signaling a potential "Quarterly Shift" in institutional direction.
📖 Technical Details
Indicator Type: Overlay
Calculations: Uses timenow and millisecond conversion for precise "Calendar Day" placement.
Best Timeframes: Designed for the Daily (1D) chart but can be used on lower timeframes (H4, H1, M15) to visualize the higher-timeframe data ranges while scalping.
ATR Trailing Stop (EMA Filter) with Adjustable ShiftATR and ema plotted to visualize best stop losses for scalping.
CVD Complete Volume Analysis ProCVD Complete Volume Analysis Pro | Order Flow & Absorption
Introduction:
In the world of modern trading, Price is the advertisement, but Volume is the fuel. However, standard volume indicators on TradingView are often insufficient. They tell you how much was traded, but they don’t tell you how it was traded.
Was that large volume spike aggressive buying driving the trend? or was it a "buying frenzy" hitting a wall of passive limit orders (absorption)?
The CVD Complete Volume Analysis Pro (v5) is an advanced institutional-grade Order Flow engine. By utilizing 1-second intrabar data, this indicator reconstructs the "Tick Rule" to separate Aggressive (Market) orders from Passive (Limit) orders. It calculates Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD), detects Absorption/Distribution anomalies, and utilizes an embedded Logistic Regression model to predict daily directional bias.
This is not just an indicator; it is a complete Order Flow Dashboard designed to aid and support complex footprint charts for the everyday trader.
🏗️ How It Works: The "Micro-Structure" Engine
Most volume indicators on TradingView look at the close of a 1-minute or 5-minute bar to guess the volume direction. This script goes deeper.
1. The 1-Second Granularity
Using TradingView's request.security_lower_tf capability, this script pulls 1-second resolution data regardless of the chart timeframe you are on.
It analyzes the price movement every second.
It applies the "Tick Rule": If price moves up, volume is classified as Buy. If price moves down, volume is classified as Sell.
This allows for a highly accurate reconstruction of Buying vs. Selling pressure that standard indicators miss.
2. The "Cluster" Concept
The script aggregates these 1-second data points into Clusters.
Default: 60 seconds (1 minute) per cluster.
This creates a normalized "Heartbeat" of the market, allowing us to compare the efficiency of volume over fixed time windows, removing the noise of time-based chart distortions.
3. The "Passive" Detection Logic (The Core Feature)
This is the most powerful aspect of the tool. It calculates the relationship between Effort (CVD) and Result (Price Move).
The Baseline: The script calculates a rolling statistical baseline (Standard Deviation) of how much price should move for a given amount of Delta.
Absorption (Hidden Buying): If we see massive Aggressive Selling (Negative CVD) but price refuses to drop (or drops significantly less than the statistical model predicts), the script identifies this as Passive Buying.
Distribution (Hidden Selling): If we see massive Aggressive Buying (Positive CVD) but price refuses to rise, the script identifies this as Passive Selling.
📊 The Dashboard Breakdown
The on-screen dashboard is your command center. It updates in real-time to provide a snapshot of the market's internal mechanics.
Section 1: Flow Analysis
This section analyzes the current session's behavior.
Flow Type: Categorizes the market state using algorithmic logic.
Aggressive Buying/Selling: The market is trending, and aggressive participants are winning.
Strong Accumulation/Distribution: A reversal signal. Aggressive participants are trapped, and passive whales are absorbing order flow.
Flow vs. Price: Detects divergences instantly.
Bullish Divergence: Net Flow is Positive, but Price is down (indicates manipulation or temporary suppression).
Bearish Divergence: Net Flow is Negative, but Price is up (indicates a "trap" move).
Section 2: Volume Breakdown
A detailed ledger of the day's activity.
Aggressive Buy/Sell: Market orders executing at the ask/bid. This represents "Impatience."
Passive Buy/Sell: The estimated volume of Limit Orders absorbing the aggressive flow. This represents "Intent."
Net Flow: The mathematical sum of all buy pressure minus sell pressure.
Section 3: Net Positioning (Multi-Day)
Markets don't happen in a vacuum. This section looks back (default 5 days) to see the accumulated inventory.
Bias: Are we in a multi-day accumulation or distribution phase?
Activity Type:
High Hidden Activity: Indicates a fighting market with heavy limit orders (choppy/reversal prone).
Mostly Aggressive: Indicates a trending market with low resistance.
Section 4: Predictive Model (Machine Learning)
The script features an embedded Logistic Regression Model.
It trains on the last N days of Flow Data (CVD, Net Aggressive, Net Passive, Passive Ratios).
It outputs a Probability Score (0% to 100%) regarding the likelihood of an UP close for the current session.
Note: This is a probability model based on order flow history, not a guarantee. Use it as a bias confirmation tool.
🧠 Educational: How to Trade With This
Strategy 1: The "Absorption" Reversal
Context: Price hits a major resistance level.
Look at the Dashboard: You want to see "Flow Type" switch to "Strong Distribution".
The Logic: Price is rising, and aggressive buyers are hitting the ask. However, the script detects that for every buy order, a passive seller is absorbing it. Price stops moving up despite high volume.
The Trigger: When Price creates a lower low on the chart while the dashboard shows Distribution, this is a high-probability short entry.
Strategy 2: The Flow Divergence
Context: Price is trending down.
Look at the Dashboard: Price is making new lows, but the "Net Flow" is turning Green (Positive), or the "Cum CVD" is sloping upwards.
The Logic: This is "Effort vs. Result." Sellers are exhausted. They are pushing price down, but the net flow is shifting to buyers.
The Trigger: Enter Long on the first structure break.
Strategy 3: Trend Continuation
Context: Market is opening or breaking a range.
Look at the Dashboard: You want "Full Alignment."
Signals: "Flow Type" says Aggressive Buying, Net Flow is Positive, and the Predictive Model shows >60% Bullish Probability.
The Logic: There is no passive resistance. Aggressive buyers are pushing price up freely.
The Trigger: Buy pullbacks.
⚙️ Settings & Configuration
Cluster Size: The number of 1-second bars to group together.
Use 60 (1 min) for Scalping.
Use 300 (5 min) for Day Trading.
Average Length: The baseline for statistical calculations. Higher numbers = smoother baselines but slower adaptation.
Detection Settings:
Passive Multiplier: Adjusts the sensitivity of the absorption estimation. 1.0 is standard. Increase to 1.5 if you only want to see extreme anomalies.
Daily Tracking:
History Days: How many days of data to display in the table. Note: Due to TradingView data limits, keeping this between 3-5 days ensures the most stability.
⚠️ Important Technical Limitations
Please read this section carefully to understand the constraints of the Pine Script environment:
Data Depth (The 100k Limit): TradingView limits request.security_lower_tf to approximately 100,000 intrabars.
This means the script can typically only "see" the last 3 to 5 days of true 1-second data.
If you set History Days or Training Days too high (e.g., 20 days), the script may return 0 values for older dates because the high-resolution data simply doesn't exist on the server.
Approximation of Ticks: While 1-second data is extremely precise, it is still an aggregation. In extremely high-volatility events (like CPI releases), multiple ticks happen inside one second. The script attributes the volume of that second based on the close relative to the open/prev close. It is the best approximation possible on TradingView, but not a replacement for Level 3 Tick Data feeds.
Calculation Time: This is a heavy script. On lower-end devices or when loading on many charts simultaneously, you may experience a "Calculation took too long" warning. If this happens, reduce the History Days to 3.
🛡️ Disclaimer
No Repainting: This indicator uses strict historical referencing and does not repaint closed clusters.
Not Financial Advice: This tool provides data visualization. Order flow is a subjective art. Always manage your risk.
Author's Note:
I built this tool because I wanted the power of Order Flow footprint charts without the visual clutter. By using statistical baselines to detect passive liquidity, we can finally see the "invisible hand" of the market directly on our TradingView charts. I hope this adds value to your trading.

Gold Pullback Precision ProGold Pullback Precision Pro
EMA slope + pullback strategy designed for gold scalping. Combines trend confirmation (slopes) with precise entries (pullbacks), filtered by HTF direction, volume, and RSI. Shows clear BUY/SELL signals with comprehensive dashboard.
Institutional PointOverview Institutional Point is a sophisticated data-mining indicator designed to identify and track "institutional footprints" by isolating the single candle with the highest volume relative to a specific time anchor. Unlike traditional volume profiles that aggregate data into price bins, this script pinpoints the exact temporal origin of massive liquidity injections.
Core Methodology The script operates on a multi-timeframe analysis engine (MTF). It scans sub-chart data (2-minute or 15-minute intervals) to find the absolute maximum volume peak within a defined period. Once the "Institutional Point" is identified:
Source Identification: The origin candle is highlighted in white, signaling a high-conviction entry or exit by large-scale market participants.
Zone Projection: A borderless "Institutional Zone" is projected forward from the spike’s high/low range.
Dynamic Interaction: The zone remains active until the price revisits the area (mitigation) or until the time-based expiration is reached.
Anchor Modes & Precision
8-Hour Cycle: Optimized for high-frequency scalping. Anchors reset at 00:00, 08:00, and 16:00. Utilizes ultra-precise 2-minute volume detection.
Daily Session: Designed for intraday and swing traders. Anchors to the Daily Open. Utilizes 2-minute volume detection to isolate precise institutional orders.
Weekly Cycle: Built for identifying major structural pivots. Anchors to the Weekly Open. Utilizes 15-minute volume detection for macro-liquidity analysis.
Key Features
Naked Level Tracking: Zones automatically stop extending the moment they are "hit" by price action, providing a clean visual of unmitigated liquidity.
Anti-Noise Filter: Automatically excludes Saturday and Sunday data to maintain statistical integrity across global markets.
Minimalist Interface: High-contrast visual design focused on scannability and professional chart aesthetics.
Use Cases
Data Science & Backtesting: Ideal for measuring the "Z-Score" or "Percentile Distance" from institutional peaks.
Supply & Demand Trading: Automated identification of the "Origin of the Move."
Magnet Analysis: Tracking "Naked" volume spikes as high-probability magnets for future price mean reversion.

CVD Flow Labels for Sessions Ranges [AMT Edition]CVD Flow Labels for Session Ranges
Description:
This script provides a session-aware Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) analysis designed to enhance the “Session Ranges ” framework by combining price extremes with detailed volume flow dynamics. Unlike generic trend or scalping indicators, this tool focuses on identifying aggressive buying and selling pressure, distinguishing between absorption (failed auctions where aggressive flows are rejected) and acceptance (confirmed continuation of flows).
How it works:
CVD Calculation: The script calculates delta for each bar using a choice of Total, Periodic, or EMA-based cumulative methods. Delta represents the net difference between estimated buying and selling volume per bar.
Normalization: By normalizing delta relative to recent volatility, it highlights extreme flows that are statistically significant, making large shifts in market sentiment easier to spot.
Session-Specific Analysis: The indicator separates Asia, London, and New York sessions to allow context-sensitive interpretation of price and volume interactions. Each session’s extremes are monitored, and flow labels are plotted relative to these extremes.
Flow Labels: Bullish and bearish absorption (“ABS”) and acceptance (“ACC WEAK/STRONG”) labels provide immediate visual cues about whether aggressive flows are being absorbed or accepted at key price levels.
Alerts: Configurable alerts trigger when absorption or acceptance occurs, supporting active trading or strategy automation.
Originality & Usefulness:
This script is original because it integrates volume-based auction theory with session-specific market structure, rather than simply showing trend or scalping signals. By combining CVD dynamics with session extreme levels from the “Session Ranges ” script, traders can:
Identify where price is likely to be accepted or rejected.
Confirm aggressive buying or selling flows before entering trades.
Time entries near session extremes with higher probability setups.
How to use:
Apply the “Session Ranges ” to see session highs, lows, and interaction lines.
Use this CVD Flow Labels script to visualize absorption and acceptance at these session levels.
Enter trades based on alignment of session extremes and flow signals:
Absorption at a session extreme may indicate a potential reversal.
Acceptance suggests continuation in the direction of the flow.
Alerts can help manage trades without constant screen monitoring.
This tool is designed to give traders a structured, session-based view of market auctions, providing actionable insights that go beyond typical trend-following or scalping methods. It emphasizes flow analysis and statistical extremes, enabling traders to make more informed decisions grounded in market microstructure.
