TrendMaster FreeTrendMaster Free
This is the free version of TrendMaster. It includes the Cloud and the candle colouring rules but does not provide the entry, exit and stop loss management of the full version.
TrendMaster is a complete trend following system with strict entry, exit and trade management criteria. The indicator is optimised for weekly, daily and 4-hour candlesticks and can be used for all trending markets such as crypto, forex or stocks. It was developed primarily for less experienced traders that struggle to determine relevant information from irrelevant information when viewing a candlestick chart. The indicator was built to solve the problem that all new traders face.
The Cloud
The indicator includes a moving average cloud which serves as a visual guide to local support and resistance . When price exits the cloud to the upside it typically trends above and finds support at the cloud during retracements.
Candle Colours
By default, TrendMaster will colour your candles in black and white. White candles indicate an uptrend in an asset and the candles will not change colour until the trend has reversed and a counter-trend signal has been printed. Black candles indicate a downtrend, they will remain black until a counter-trend long signal candle has been printed.
Setting Up The Indicator
TrendMaster is optimised for Heikin-Ashi candles. Using candles with smoothing applied decreases the likelihood of whipsaw losses and provides a stable visual representation of the trend. Ensure you have applied Heikin-Ashi candles to your chart before continuing. You can customise to any style of your choice provided the candle borders and wicks are set to a uniform colour that contrasts the chart background.
Entries and Exits
A long signal candle is a white Heikin-Ashi candle that closes above the cloud. A short signal candle is a white Heikin-Ashi candle that closes below the cloud. Entries are taken with a pending order placed at the wick with a reasonable margin for error.
Upgrading
The full version of TrendMaster contains significantly more functionality including coloured signal candles, stop loss and trailing take profit management, alerts and much more.

⚠️ COMMON MISTAKES TO AVOID
❌ MISTAKE 1: Trading against all VWAPs
→ If price < Daily, Weekly, Monthly VWAP → DON'T buy
→ Wait for confluence or trend change
❌ MISTAKE 2: Ignoring sessions
→ NY VWAP at 8am has NO validity
→ Respect session start/end times
❌ MISTAKE 3: Over-trading VWAP touches
→ Every VWAP touch is NOT a signal
→ Wait for confluence + volume + pattern
❌ MISTAKE 4: Wrong time configuration
→ Check your timezone
→ Adjust hours according to your location
❌ MISTAKE 5: Neglecting volume
→ VWAP crossover without volume is WEAK
→ Volume > average = more reliable signal
❌ MISTAKE 6: Forgetting HTF context
→ Always check higher timeframe
→ Daily chart for intraday, Weekly for swing
❌ MISTAKE 7: Too tight stop loss
→ Place stop BEYOND ±3σ band
→ Give position room to breathe
❌ MISTAKE 8: Using only VWAP
→ COMBINE with: RSI, Volume Profile, Support/Resistance
→ VWAP is a tool, not a complete strategy
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📈 OPTIMIZATION & BACKTESTING
TIPS TO IMPROVE YOUR RESULTS:
1. JOURNAL YOUR TRADES
• Note which VWAP configuration worked
• Which session gives best results
• Which band level (1σ/2σ/3σ) is optimal
2. TEST DIFFERENT PERIODS
• Modify session hours according to your asset
• Crypto: Different 24h sessions
• EU Stocks: Adapt to XETRA/CAC hours
3. ADAPT BANDS
• Volatile assets: Use 1.5σ, 2.5σ, 3.5σ
• Calm assets: Keep standard 1σ, 2σ, 3σ
4. COMBINE WITH OTHER TOOLS
• Volume Profile (POC, VAH, VAL)
• Market Delta / Order Flow
• Horizontal Support/Resistance
• Fibonacci retracements

Volume Analysis🙏🏻 (signed) Volume Analysis is 2 of 2 structural layer / ordeflow analysis scripts, while the first one is Liquidity Analysis. Both are independent so can’t be released together as a single script, but should be used together.
The same math used in this script can be applied to other types of aggressive volume data: non-aggregated flow of market orders, volume traded of put vs call options.
There’s no universal agreement about terminology, but this script works with volumes signed by the aggressor who initiated a transaction. Then these volumes get aggregated by time and a cumulative sum is calculated. Mostly this is widely known as Cumulative Volume Delta.
However this script works with 'inferred' volumes vs the provided ones. It’s the better choice for equities, bonds; neutral choice for currencies; and suboptimal choice for natural and artificial commodities.
Contents:
Output description;
How to analyze & use the outputs;
How to use it together with Liquidity Analysis script;
How did I use both scripts to finish The Leap profitably and skipped many losses.
1. Output description
Color of the CVD line reflects (signed) volume imbalance state: red is negative, purple is neutral, blue is positive.
3 purple lines are lower deviation (lower band), basis (middle band), upper deviation (upper band): used to generate signals by a ruleset that would be explained in a minute
Gray number in the script’s status line is the advised input you may put into Inferred volume multiplier in script’s setting, I will explain it
Vertical dash line marks the moving window end, this way you can be certain over what exact data you see the profile was built.
2. How to analyze & use the outputs
Setup up the script:
Moving window length: set it to ~ ¼ of your data analysis window. E.g if you see on your charts and use ~ 256 bars, set the length to 64.
Inferred volume multiplier: you can easily leave it 256, this is not a critical factor for the math, it’s mostly there if you want to ~ equate inferred volumes with real ones in scale. For this, use the gray number in the script status line, it’s calculated as ratio of long term real volumes weighted avg to long term inferred volumes weighted avg.
Again, changing the inferred volume multiplier won’t affect the math.
Use 2 timeframes: main one and a far lower one 3 steps down, just like on the screenshot.
Find out current volume imbalance state:
As mentioned before, based on CVD line color, it can be negative, neutral or positive. This is the state variable that changes slowly and denies/confirms the signals generated by crossovers of CVD line and 3 purple thresholds.
For this I use my own very fast and lightweight metric that is totally statistically grounded, utilizes temporal information, and calculates volume imbalance without using heavy math like regressions as it’s usually done. It also provides a natural neutral zone, when volume imbalance is not strong enough to be confirmed.
...
CVD-based signals:
First you need to understand what precisely a touch of a threshold is:
Touch: an event when either of these 2 happens:
One CVD datapoint is above the threshold, and the next CVD datapoint is below the threshold
One CVD datapoint is below the threshold, and the next CVD datapoint is above the threshold
These are usually called crossovers/crossunders.
Now with the 3 purple thresholds we follow this logic:
Monitor the last touched threshold;
Once another threshold is touched, here we may generate a signal but only once !, after the first generated signal at that threshold we can’t generate more signals on this threshold, we need to wait when CVD comes to another threshold.
If CVD touches one threshold, and then goes down and touches another threshold downwards, we wait when CVD makes a datapoint above this threshold. When it happens, we register a long signal
If CVD touches one threshold, and then goes up and touches another threshold upwards, we wait when CVD makes a datapoint below this threshold. When it happens, we register a short signal
However, don’t open new trades against the current volume imbalance state. So don’t open shorts when the CDV line is blue, and don’t open longs when CVD line is red.
Btw, this technique I call it “reclaim” of a level/threshold. It can be applied to horizontal levels, and it’s very powerful especially when you fade levels on very volatility assets like BTC. This technique allows you to Not fade a level straight away, but wait when price goes past the level a bit, and then comes back and reclaims it, only there you enter, and moreover you now have a very well defined risk point.
The last part is multi-timeframe logic. Prefer to act when a lower timeframe is Not against the main timeframe. That’s all, no multiple higher timeframes are needed.
3. How to use it together with Liquidity Analysis script.
That script also has a mean to generate its own signals, and another state variable called Liquidity Imbalance.
So now you’re not only looking at volume imbalance but also at liquidity imbalance that would deny/confirm the CVD based signal. You need at least one of these two to favor your long or short.
This is the same logic widely used in HFT, where MM bots cancel/shift/resize orders when book is too onesided And ordeflow is one sided as well.
4. How did I use both scripts to finish The Leap profitably and skipped many losses.
Even tho you can use structural information as your main strategic layer, as many so-called orderflow traders do, I traded in objective style: my fade signals were volatility based in essence, and I used ordeflow for better entries and stops, but most importantly to skip losses.
When ‘both‘ liquidity imbalance and volume imbalance (in their main timeframes) were against my trades, I skipped them all, saving many ~$500 stop losses (that was my basis risk unit for the Leap). Unless I had a very strong objective signal, i.e. confluence of several signals, or just one higher timeframe signal, I did all these skips.
I traded ~ intraweek timeframe, so I was analyzing either the last 230 30min bars or 1380 5min bars. Both Liquidity Analysis and (signed) Volume Analysis scripts were set to moving window length 46 or 276 for either granularity.
I finished the leap with 9% profit and max DD ~ 5%, a bit short of my goal of 12.5%. If not these 2 scripts I would’ve finished a bit above breakeven I think.
,,,
Another thing, I made these 2 scripts invite-only because they are made particularly for trading, particularly for certain types of market data. These are tools adapted for particular use case, not like my other posts with general math entities like Kernel Density Estimation or Kalman filter, that you can take and apply properly on any data you need yourself.
However these are made from general math entities like everything else. ‘All’ the components are available in my other scripts, ideas, and other sources related to me. If you want to reverse-engineer these, you can find all the components you need in my already posted open source work.

Position Sizing:
The 1% Rule:
Account: $1000
Risk per trade: 1% = $10
If SL is 20 pips away:
Position size = $10 / 20 pips = $0.50/pip
Simple! Never risk more than you can afford to lose.
🎯 Success Tips
From Professional Traders:
Tip #1: Quality Over Quantity
"Better to take 3 excellent trades per week
than 20 mediocre trades per day."
→ Focus on 5-star signals at first
Tip #2: Respect the Stop Loss
"The indicator calculated it for a reason.
Moving stops = breaking risk management."
→ Set it and honor it, always
Tip #3: Take Partial Profits
"Bank some profit at TP1, let the rest run to TP2.
This keeps you profitable even if TP2 doesn't hit."
→ Close 50% at TP1 (yellow box)
Tip #4: Trade Best Sessions
"London and New York overlap (1-4 PM GMT)
is the most liquid time of day."
→ Watch for green+blue background
Tip #5: Keep Learning
"Every trade is a lesson.
Winners teach confidence, losers teach discipline."
→ Journal everything, review weekly

Advanced Tips
Scalping Psychology
Be patient: Wait for Score 5+ setups
Be decisive: When signal appears, act immediately
Be disciplined: Follow your stop loss always
Be flexible: Exit quickly if dashboard reverses
Optimization
Backtest on your specific instrument
Adjust RSI/Stoch levels for your market
Fine-tune volume thresholds
Keep a trade journal to track which setups work best
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation
Use 5-min dashboard as "trend filter"
Take 1-min trades only in direction of 5-min SCALP signal
Increases win rate by ~10-15%
Troubleshooting
Q: Dashboard shows WAIT most of the time
Normal - scalping is about patience. Quality > Quantity
3-8 good setups per day is excellent
Q: Too many false signals
Increase minimum Score requirement to 5 or 6
Only trade with volume surge (yellow backgrounds)
Add large order detection confirmation
Q: Signals too slow
You may be on too high a timeframe
Try 1-minute chart for faster signals
Ensure real-time data feed is active

chart Pattern & Candle sticks Strategy# **XAUUSD Pattern & Candle Strategy - Complete Description**
## **Overview**
This Pine Script indicator is a comprehensive multi-factor trading system specifically designed for **XAUUSD (Gold) scalping and swing trading**. It combines classical technical analysis methods including candlestick patterns, chart patterns, moving averages, and volume analysis to generate high-probability buy/sell signals with automatic stop-loss and take-profit levels.
***
## **Core Components**
### **1. Moving Average System (Triple MA)**
**Purpose:** Identifies trend direction and momentum
- **Fast MA (20-period)** - Short-term price action
- **Medium MA (50-period)** - Intermediate trend
- **Slow MA (200-period)** - Long-term trend direction
**How it works:**
- **Bullish alignment**: MA20 > MA50 > MA200 (all pointing up)
- **Bearish alignment**: MA20 < MA50 < MA200 (all pointing down)
- **Crossover signals**: When Fast MA crosses Medium MA, it triggers buy/sell signals
- **Choice of SMA or EMA**: Adjustable based on preference
**Visual indicators:**
- Blue line = Fast MA
- Orange line = Medium MA
- Light red line = Slow MA
- Green background tint = Bullish trend
- Red background tint = Bearish trend
---
### **2. Candlestick Pattern Recognition (13 Patterns)**
**Purpose:** Identifies reversal and continuation signals based on price action
#### **Bullish Patterns (Signal potential upward moves):**
1. **Hammer** 🔨
- Long lower wick (2x body size)
- Small body at top
- Indicates rejection of lower prices (buyers stepping in)
- Best at support levels
2. **Inverted Hammer**
- Long upper wick
- Small body at bottom
- Shows buying pressure despite initial selling
3. **Bullish Engulfing** 📈
- Green candle completely engulfs previous red candle
- Strong reversal signal
- Body must be 1.2x larger than previous
4. **Morning Star** ⭐
- 3-candle pattern
- Red candle → Small indecision candle → Large green candle
- Powerful reversal at bottoms
5. **Piercing Line** ⚡
- Green candle closes above 50% of previous red candle
- Indicates strong buying interest
6. **Bullish Marubozu**
- Almost no wicks (95% body)
- Very strong bullish momentum
- Body must be 1.3x average size
#### **Bearish Patterns (Signal potential downward moves):**
7. **Shooting Star** 💫
- Long upper wick
- Small body at bottom
- Indicates rejection of higher prices (sellers in control)
- Best at resistance levels
8. **Hanging Man**
- Similar to hammer but appears at top
- Warning of potential reversal down
9. **Bearish Engulfing** 📉
- Red candle completely engulfs previous green candle
- Strong reversal signal
10. **Evening Star** 🌙
- 3-candle pattern (opposite of Morning Star)
- Green → Small → Large red candle
- Powerful top reversal
11. **Dark Cloud Cover** ☁️
- Red candle closes below 50% of previous green candle
- Indicates strong selling pressure
12. **Bearish Marubozu**
- Almost no wicks, pure red body
- Very strong bearish momentum
#### **Neutral Pattern:**
13. **Doji**
- Open and close nearly equal (tiny body)
- Indicates indecision
- Often precedes major moves
**Detection Logic:**
- Compares body size, wick ratios, and position relative to previous candles
- Uses 14-period average body size as reference
- All patterns validated against volume confirmation
***
### **3. Chart Pattern Recognition**
**Purpose:** Identifies major support/resistance and reversal patterns
#### **Patterns Detected:**
**Double Bottom** 📊 (Bullish)
- Two lows at approximately same level
- Indicates strong support
- Breakout above neckline triggers buy signal
- Most reliable at major support zones
**Double Top** 📊 (Bearish)
- Two highs at approximately same level
- Indicates strong resistance
- Breakdown below neckline triggers sell signal
- Most reliable at major resistance zones
**Support & Resistance Levels**
- Automatically plots recent pivot highs (resistance)
- Automatically plots recent pivot lows (support)
- Uses 3-bar strength for validation
- Levels shown as dashed horizontal lines
**Price Action Patterns**
- **Uptrend detection**: Higher highs + higher lows
- **Downtrend detection**: Lower highs + lower lows
- Confirms overall market structure
***
### **4. Volume Analysis**
**Purpose:** Confirms signal strength and filters false signals
**Metrics tracked:**
- **Volume MA (20-period)**: Baseline average volume
- **High volume threshold**: 1.5x the volume average
- **Volume increase**: Current volume > previous 2 bars
**How it's used:**
- All buy/sell signals **require volume confirmation**

- Automatically closes position when:
- Stop loss is hit
- Take profit is reached
- Opposite MA crossover occurs
- Prevents revenge trading and over-leveraging
**Visual Representation:**
- **Red horizontal line** = Stop Loss level

Quantum Market Harmonics [QMH]# Quantum Market Harmonics - TradingView Script Description
## 📊 OVERVIEW
Quantum Market Harmonics (QMH) is a comprehensive multi-dimensional trading indicator that combines four independent analytical frameworks to generate high-probability trading signals with quantifiable confidence scores. Unlike simple indicator combinations that display multiple tools side-by-side, QMH synthesizes temporal analysis, inter-market correlations, behavioral psychology, and statistical probabilities into a unified confidence scoring system that requires agreement across all dimensions before generating a confirmed signal.
---
## 🎯 WHAT MAKES THIS SCRIPT ORIGINAL
### The Core Innovation: Weighted Confidence Scoring
Most indicators provide binary signals (buy/sell) or display multiple indicators separately, leaving traders to interpret conflicting information. QMH's originality lies in its weighted confidence scoring system that:
1. **Combines Four Independent Methods** - Each framework (described below) operates independently and contributes points to an overall confidence score
2. **Requires Multi-Dimensional Agreement** - Signals only fire when multiple frameworks align, dramatically reducing false positives
3. **Quantifies Signal Strength** - Every signal includes a numerical confidence rating (0-100%), allowing traders to filter by quality
4. **Adapts to Market Conditions** - Different market regimes activate different component combinations
### Why This Combination is Useful
Traditional approaches suffer from:
- **Single-dimension bias**: RSI shows oversold, but trend is still down
- **Conflicting signals**: MACD says buy, but volume is weak
- **No prioritization**: All signals treated equally regardless of strength
QMH solves these problems by requiring multiple independent confirmations and weighting each component's contribution to the final signal. This multi-dimensional approach mirrors how professional traders analyze markets - not relying on one indicator, but waiting for multiple pieces of evidence to align.
---
## 🔬 THE FOUR ANALYTICAL FRAMEWORKS
### 1. Temporal Fractal Resonance (TFR)
**What It Does:**
Analyzes trend alignment across four different timeframes simultaneously (15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, and daily) to identify periods of multi-timeframe synchronization.
**How It Works:**
- Uses `request.security()` with `lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off` to retrieve confirmed price data from each timeframe
- Calculates "fractal strength" for each timeframe using this formula:
```
Fractal Strength = (Rate of Change / Standard Deviation) × 100
```
This creates a momentum-to-volatility ratio that measures trend strength relative to noise
- Computes a Resonance Index when all four timeframes show the same directional bias
- The index averages the absolute strength values when all timeframes align
**Why This Method:**
Fractal Market Hypothesis suggests that price patterns repeat across different time scales. When trends align from short-term (15m) to long-term (Daily), the probability of trend continuation increases substantially. The momentum/volatility ratio filters out low-conviction moves where volatility dominates direction.
**Contribution to Confidence Score:**
- TFR Bullish = +25 points
- TFR Bearish = +25 points (to bearish confidence)
- No alignment = 0 points
---
### 2. Cross-Asset Quantum Entanglement (CAQE)
**What It Does:**
Analyzes correlation patterns between the current asset and three reference markets (Bitcoin, US Dollar Index, and Volatility Index) to identify both normal correlation behavior and anomalous breakdowns that often precede significant moves.
**How It Works:**
- Retrieves price data from BTC (BINANCE:BTCUSDT), DXY (TVC:DXY), and VIX (TVC:VIX) using confirmed bars
- Calculates Pearson correlation coefficient between the main asset and each reference:
```
Correlation = Covariance(X,Y) / (StdDev(X) × StdDev(Y))
```
- Computes an Intermarket Pressure Index by weighting each reference asset's momentum by its correlation strength:
```
Pressure = (Corr₁ × ROC₁ + Corr₂ × ROC₂ + Corr₃ × ROC₃) / 3
```
- Detects "correlation breakdowns" when average correlation drops below 0.3
**Why This Method:**
Markets don't operate in isolation. Inter-market analysis (developed by John Murphy) recognizes that:
- Crypto assets often correlate with Bitcoin
- Risk assets inversely correlate with VIX (fear gauge)
- Dollar strength affects commodity and crypto prices
When these normal correlations break down, it signals potential regime changes. The term "quantum" reflects the interconnected nature of these relationships - like quantum entanglement where distant particles influence each other.
**Contribution to Confidence Score:**
- CAQE Bullish (positive pressure, stable correlations) = +25 points
- CAQE Bearish (negative pressure, stable correlations) = +25 points (to bearish)
- Correlation breakdown = Warning marker (potential reversal zone)
---
### 3. Adaptive Market Psychology Matrix (AMPM)
**What It Does:**
Classifies the current market emotional state into six distinct categories by analyzing the interaction between momentum (RSI), volume behavior, and volatility acceleration (ATR change).
**How It Works:**
The system evaluates three metrics:
1. **RSI (14-period)**: Measures overbought/oversold conditions
2. **Volume Analysis**: Compares current volume to 20-period average
3. **ATR Rate of Change**: Detects volatility acceleration
Based on these inputs, the market is classified into:
- **Euphoria**: RSI > 80, volume spike present, volatility rising (extreme bullish emotion)
- **Greed**: RSI > 70, normal volume (moderate bullish emotion)
- **Neutral**: RSI 40-60, declining volatility (balanced state)
- **Fear**: RSI 40-60, low volatility (uncertainty without panic)
- **Panic**: RSI < 30, volume spike present, volatility rising (extreme bearish emotion)
- **Despair**: RSI < 20, normal volume (capitulation phase)
**Why This Method:**
Behavioral finance principles (Kahneman, Tversky) show that markets follow predictable emotional cycles. Extreme psychological states often mark reversal points because:
- At Euphoria/Greed peaks, everyone bullish has already bought (no buyers left)
- At Panic/Despair bottoms, everyone bearish has already sold (no sellers left)
AMPM provides contrarian signals at these extremes while respecting trends during Fear and Greed intermediate states.
**Contribution to Confidence Score:**
- Psychology Bullish (Panic/Despair + RSI < 35) = +15 points
- Psychology Bearish (Euphoria/Greed + RSI > 65) = +15 points
- Neutral states = 0 points

### 4. Time-Decay Probability Zones (TDPZ)
**What It Does:**
Creates dynamic support and resistance zones based on statistical probability distributions that adapt to changing market volatility, similar to Bollinger Bands but with enhancements for trend environments.
**How It Works:**
- Calculates a 20-period Simple Moving Average as the basis line
- Computes standard deviation of price over the same period
- Creates four probability zones:
- **Extreme Upper**: Basis + 2.5 standard deviations (≈99% probability boundary)
- **Upper Zone**: Basis + 1.5 standard deviations
- **Lower Zone**: Basis - 1.5 standard deviations
- **Extreme Lower**: Basis - 2.5 standard deviations (≈99% probability boundary)
- Dynamically adjusts zone width based on ATR (Average True Range):
```
Adjusted Upper = Upper Zone + (ATR × adjustment_factor)
Adjusted Lower = Lower Zone - (ATR × adjustment_factor)
```
- The adjustment factor increases during high volatility, widening the zones
**Why This Method:**
Traditional support/resistance levels are static and don't account for volatility regimes. TDPZ zones are probability-based and mean-reverting:
- Price has ≈99% probability of staying within extreme zones in normal conditions
- Touches to extreme zones represent statistical outliers (high-probability reversal opportunities)
- Zone expansion/contraction reflects volatility regime changes
- ATR adjustment prevents false signals during unusual volatility
The "time-decay" concept refers to mean reversion - the further price moves from the basis, the higher the probability of eventual return.
**Contribution to Confidence Score:**
- Price in Lower Extreme Zone = +15 points (bullish reversal probability)
- Price in Upper Extreme Zone = +15 points (bearish reversal probability)
- Price near basis = 0 points

## 🎯 HOW THE CONFIDENCE SCORING SYSTEM WORKS
### Signal Generation Formula
QMH calculates separate Bullish and Bearish confidence scores each bar:
**Bullish Confidence (0-100%):**
```
Base Score: 20 points
+ TFR Bullish: 25 points (if all 4 timeframes aligned bullish)
+ CAQE Bullish: 25 points (if intermarket pressure positive)
+ AMPM Bullish: 15 points (if Panic/Despair contrarian signal)
+ TDPZ Bullish: 15 points (if price in lower probability zones)
─────────
Maximum Possible: 100 points
```
**Bearish Confidence (0-100%):**
```
Base Score: 20 points
+ TFR Bearish: 25 points (if all 4 timeframes aligned bearish)
+ CAQE Bearish: 25 points (if intermarket pressure negative)
+ AMPM Bearish: 15 points (if Euphoria/Greed contrarian signal)
+ TDPZ Bearish: 15 points (if price in upper probability zones)
─────────
Maximum Possible: 100 points
```
### Confirmed Signal Requirements
A **QBUY** (Quantum Buy) signal generates when:
1. Bullish Confidence ≥ User-defined threshold (default 60%)
2. Bullish Confidence > Bearish Confidence
3. No active sell signal present
A **QSELL** (Quantum Sell) signal generates when:
1. Bearish Confidence ≥ User-defined threshold (default 60%)
2. Bearish Confidence > Bullish Confidence
3. No active buy signal present
### Why This Approach Is Different
**Example Comparison:**
Traditional RSI Strategy:
- RSI < 30 → Buy signal
- Result: May buy into falling knife if trend remains bearish
QMH Approach:
- RSI < 30 → Psychology shows Panic (+15 points)
- But requires additional confirmation:
- Are all timeframes also showing bullish reversal? (+25 points)
- Is intermarket pressure turning positive? (+25 points)
- Is price at a statistical extreme? (+15 points)
- Only when total ≥ 60 points does a QBUY signal fire
This multi-layer confirmation dramatically reduces false signals while maintaining sensitivity to genuine opportunities.

## 🚫 NO REPAINT GUARANTEE
**QMH is designed to be 100% repaint-free**, which is critical for honest backtesting and reliable live trading.
### Technical Implementation:
1. **All Multi-Timeframe Data Uses Confirmed Bars**
```pinescript
tf1_close = request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "15", close , lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off)
```
Using `close ` instead of `close ` ensures we only reference the previous confirmed bar, not the current forming bar.
2. **Lookahead Prevention**
```pinescript
lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off
```
This parameter prevents the function from accessing future data that wouldn't be available in real-time.
3. **Signal Timing**
Signals appear on the bar AFTER all conditions are met, not retroactively on the bar where conditions first appeared.
### What This Means for Users:
- **Backtest Accuracy**: Historical signals match exactly what you would have seen in real-time
- **No Disappearing Signals**: Once a signal appears, it stays (though price may move against it)
- **Honest Performance**: Results reflect true predictive power, not hindsight optimization
- **Live Trading Reliability**: Alerts fire at the same time signals appear on the chart
The dashboard displays "✓ NO REPAINT" to confirm this guarantee.

## 📖 HOW TO USE THIS INDICATOR
### Basic Trading Strategy
**For Trend Followers:**
1. **Wait for Signal Confirmation**
- QBUY label appears below a bar = Confirmed bullish entry opportunity
- QSELL label appears above a bar = Confirmed bearish entry opportunity
2. **Check Confidence Score**
- 60-70%: Moderate confidence (consider smaller position size)
- 70-85%: High confidence (standard position size)
- 85-100%: Very high confidence (consider larger position size)
3. **Enter Trade**
- Long entry: Market or limit order near signal bar
- Short entry: Market or limit order near signal bar
4. **Set Targets Using Probability Zones**
- Long trades: Target the adjusted upper zone (lime line)
- Short trades: Target the adjusted lower zone (red line)
- Alternatively, target the basis line (yellow) for conservative exits
5. **Set Stop Loss**
- Long trades: Below recent swing low minus 1 ATR
- Short trades: Above recent swing high plus 1 ATR
**For Mean Reversion Traders:**
1. **Wait for Extreme Zones**
- Price touches extreme lower zone (dotted red line below)
- Price touches extreme upper zone (dotted lime line above)
2. **Confirm with Psychology**
- At lower extreme: Look for Panic or Despair state
- At upper extreme: Look for Euphoria or Greed state
3. **Wait for Confidence Build**
- Monitor dashboard until confidence exceeds threshold
- Requires patience - extreme touches don't always reverse immediately
4. **Enter Reversal**
- Target: Return to basis line (yellow SMA 20)
- Stop: Beyond the extreme zone
**For Position Traders (Longer Timeframes):**
1. **Use Daily Timeframe**
- Set chart to daily for longer-term signals
- Signals will be less frequent but higher quality
2. **Require High Confidence**
- Filter setting: Min Confidence Score 80%+
- Only take the strongest multi-dimensional setups
3. **Confirm with Resonance Background**
- Green tinted background = All timeframes bullish aligned
- Red tinted background = All timeframes bearish aligned
- Only enter when background tint matches signal direction
4. **Hold for Major Targets**
- Long trades: Hold until extreme upper zone or opposite signal
- Short trades: Hold until extreme lower zone or opposite signal

## 💡 BEST PRACTICES
### For All Users:
1. **Backtest First**
- Test on your specific market and timeframe before live trading
- Different assets may perform better with different confidence thresholds
- Verify that the No Repaint guarantee works as described
2. **Paper Trade**
- Practice with signals on a demo account first
- Understand typical signal frequency for your timeframe
- Get comfortable with the dashboard interpretation
3. **Risk Management**
- Never risk more than 1-2% of capital per trade
- Use proper stop losses (not just mental stops)
- Position size based on confidence score (larger size at higher confidence)
4. **Consider Context**
- QMH signals work best in clear trends or at extremes
- During tight consolidation, false signals increase
- Major news events can invalidate technical signals
### Optimal Use Cases:
**QMH Works Best When:**
- ✅ Markets are trending (up or down)
- ✅ Volatility is normal to elevated
- ✅ Price reaches probability zone extremes
- ✅ Multiple timeframes align
- ✅ Clear inter-market relationships exist
**QMH Is Less Effective When:**
- ❌ Extremely low volatility (zones contract too much)
- ❌ Sideways choppy markets (conflicting timeframes)
- ❌ Flash crashes or news events (correlations break down)
- ❌ Very illiquid assets (irregular price action)
### Session Considerations:
- **24/7 Markets (Crypto)**: Works on all sessions, but signals may be more reliable during high-volume periods (US/European trading hours)
- **Forex**: Best during London/New York overlap when volume is highest
- **Stocks**: Most reliable during regular trading hours (not pre-market/after-hours)
---
## ⚠️ LIMITATIONS AND RISKS
### This Indicator Cannot:
- **Predict Black Swan Events**: Sudden unexpected events invalidate technical analysis
- **Guarantee Profits**: No indicator is 100% accurate; losses will occur
- **Replace Risk Management**: Always use stop losses and proper position sizing
- **Account for Fundamental Changes**: Company news, economic data, etc. can override technical signals
- **Work in All Market Conditions**: Less effective during extreme low volatility or major news events
### Known Limitations:
1. **Multi-Timeframe Lag**: Uses confirmed bars (`close `), so signals appear one bar after conditions met
2. **Correlation Dependency**: CAQE requires sufficient history; may be less reliable on newly listed assets
3. **Computational Load**: Multiple `request.security()` calls may cause slower performance on older devices
4. **Repaint of Dashboard**: Dashboard updates every bar (by design), but signals themselves don't repaint
### Risk Warnings:
- Past performance doesn't guarantee future results
- Backtesting results may not reflect actual trading results due to slippage, commissions, and execution delays
- Different markets and timeframes may produce different results
- The indicator should be used as a tool, not as a standalone trading system
- Always combine with your own analysis, risk management, and trading plan

T3 ATR [DCAUT]█ T3 ATR
📊 ORIGINALITY & INNOVATION
The T3 ATR indicator represents an important enhancement to the traditional Average True Range (ATR) indicator by incorporating the T3 (Tilson Triple Exponential Moving Average) smoothing algorithm. While standard ATR uses fixed RMA (Running Moving Average) smoothing, T3 ATR introduces a configurable volume factor parameter that allows traders to adjust the smoothing characteristics from highly responsive to heavily smoothed output.
This innovation addresses a fundamental limitation of traditional ATR: the inability to adapt smoothing behavior without changing the calculation period. With T3 ATR, traders can maintain a consistent ATR period while adjusting the responsiveness through the volume factor, making the indicator adaptable to different trading styles, market conditions, and timeframes through a single unified implementation.
The T3 algorithm's triple exponential smoothing with volume factor control provides improved signal quality by reducing noise while maintaining better responsiveness compared to traditional smoothing methods. This makes T3 ATR particularly valuable for traders who need to adapt their volatility measurement approach to varying market conditions without switching between multiple indicator configurations.
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
The T3 ATR calculation process involves two distinct stages:
Stage 1: True Range Calculation
The True Range (TR) is calculated using the standard formula:
TR = max(high - low, |high - close |, |low - close |)
This captures the greatest of the current bar's range, the gap from the previous close to the current high, or the gap from the previous close to the current low, providing a comprehensive measure of price movement that accounts for gaps and limit moves.
Stage 2: T3 Smoothing Application
The True Range values are then smoothed using the T3 algorithm, which applies six exponential moving averages in succession:
First Layer: e1 = EMA(TR, period), e2 = EMA(e1, period)
Second Layer: e3 = EMA(e2, period), e4 = EMA(e3, period)
Third Layer: e5 = EMA(e4, period), e6 = EMA(e5, period)
Final Calculation: T3 = c1×e6 + c2×e5 + c3×e4 + c4×e3
The coefficients (c1, c2, c3, c4) are derived from the volume factor (VF) parameter:
a = VF / 2
c1 = -a³
c2 = 3a² + 3a³
c3 = -6a² - 3a - 3a³
c4 = 1 + 3a + a³ + 3a²
The volume factor parameter (0.0 to 1.0) controls the weighting of these coefficients, directly affecting the balance between responsiveness and smoothness:
Lower VF values (approaching 0.0): Coefficients favor recent data, resulting in faster response to volatility changes with minimal lag but potentially more noise
Higher VF values (approaching 1.0): Coefficients distribute weight more evenly across the smoothing layers, producing smoother output with reduced noise but slightly increased lag
📊 COMPREHENSIVE SIGNAL ANALYSIS
Volatility Level Interpretation:
High Absolute Values: Indicate strong price movements and elevated market activity, suggesting larger position risks and wider stop-loss requirements, often associated with trending markets or significant news events
Low Absolute Values: Indicate subdued price movements and quiet market conditions, suggesting smaller position risks and tighter stop-loss opportunities, often associated with consolidation phases or low-volume periods
Rapid Increases: Sharp spikes in T3 ATR often signal the beginning of significant price moves or market regime changes, providing early warning of increased trading risk
Sustained High Levels: Extended periods of elevated T3 ATR indicate sustained trending conditions with persistent volatility, suitable for trend-following strategies
Sustained Low Levels: Extended periods of low T3 ATR indicate range-bound conditions with suppressed volatility, suitable for mean-reversion strategies
Volume Factor Impact on Signals:
Low VF Settings (0.0-0.3): Produce responsive signals that quickly capture volatility changes, suitable for short-term trading but may generate more frequent color changes during minor fluctuations
Medium VF Settings (0.4-0.7): Provide balanced signal quality with moderate responsiveness, filtering out minor noise while capturing significant volatility changes, suitable for swing trading
High VF Settings (0.8-1.0): Generate smooth, stable signals that filter out most noise and focus on major volatility trends, suitable for position trading and long-term analysis
🎯 STRATEGIC APPLICATIONS
Position Sizing Strategy:
Determine your risk per trade (e.g., 1% of account capital - adjust based on your risk tolerance and experience)
Decide your stop-loss distance multiplier (e.g., 2.0x T3 ATR - this varies by market and strategy, test different values)
Calculate stop-loss distance: Stop Distance = Multiplier × Current T3 ATR
Calculate position size: Position Size = (Account × Risk %) / Stop Distance
Example: $10,000 account, 1% risk, T3 ATR = 50 points, 2x multiplier → Position Size = ($10,000 × 0.01) / (2 × 50) = $100 / 100 points = 1 unit per point
Important: The ATR multiplier (1.5x - 3.0x) should be determined through backtesting for your specific instrument and strategy - using inappropriate multipliers may result in stops that are too tight (frequent stop-outs) or too wide (excessive losses)
Adjust the volume factor to match your trading style: lower VF for responsive stop distances in short-term trading, higher VF for stable stop distances in position trading
Dynamic Stop-Loss Placement:
Determine your risk tolerance multiplier (typically 1.5x to 3.0x T3 ATR)
For long positions: Set stop-loss at entry price minus (multiplier × current T3 ATR value)
For short positions: Set stop-loss at entry price plus (multiplier × current T3 ATR value)
Trail stop-losses by recalculating based on current T3 ATR as the trade progresses
Adjust the volume factor based on desired stop-loss stability: higher VF for less frequent adjustments, lower VF for more adaptive stops
Market Regime Identification:
Calculate a reference volatility level using a longer-period moving average of T3 ATR (e.g., 50-period SMA)
High Volatility Regime: Current T3 ATR significantly above reference (e.g., 120%+) - favor trend-following strategies, breakout trades, and wider targets
Normal Volatility Regime: Current T3 ATR near reference (e.g., 80-120%) - employ standard trading strategies appropriate for prevailing market structure
Low Volatility Regime: Current T3 ATR significantly below reference (e.g., <80%) - favor mean-reversion strategies, range trading, and prepare for potential volatility expansion
Monitor T3 ATR trend direction and compare current values to recent history to identify regime transitions early
Risk Management Implementation:
Establish your maximum portfolio heat (total risk across all positions, typically 2-6% of capital)
For each position: Calculate position size using the formula Position Size = (Account × Individual Risk %) / (ATR Multiplier × Current T3 ATR)
When T3 ATR increases: Position sizes automatically decrease (same risk %, larger stop distance = smaller position)
When T3 ATR decreases: Position sizes automatically increase (same risk %, smaller stop distance = larger position)
This approach maintains constant dollar risk per trade regardless of market volatility changes
Use consistent volume factor settings across all positions to ensure uniform risk measurement
📋 DETAILED PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
ATR Length Parameter:
Default Setting: 14 periods
This is the standard ATR calculation period established by Welles Wilder, providing balanced volatility measurement that captures both short-term fluctuations and medium-term trends across most markets and timeframes
Selection Principles:
Shorter periods increase sensitivity to recent volatility changes and respond faster to market shifts, but may produce less stable readings
Longer periods emphasize sustained volatility trends and filter out short-term noise, but respond more slowly to genuine regime changes
The optimal period depends on your holding time, trading frequency, and the typical volatility cycle of your instrument
Consider the timeframe you trade: Intraday traders typically use shorter periods, swing traders use intermediate periods, position traders use longer periods
Practical Approach:
Start with the default 14 periods and observe how well it captures volatility patterns relevant to your trading decisions
If ATR seems too reactive to minor price movements: Increase the period until volatility readings better reflect meaningful market changes
If ATR lags behind obvious volatility shifts that affect your trades: Decrease the period for faster response
Match the period roughly to your typical holding time - if you hold positions for N bars, consider ATR periods in a similar range
Test different periods using historical data for your specific instrument and strategy before committing to live trading
T3 Volume Factor Parameter:
Default Setting: 0.7
This setting provides a reasonable balance between responsiveness and smoothness for most market conditions and trading styles
Understanding the Volume Factor:
Lower values (closer to 0.0) reduce smoothing, allowing T3 ATR to respond more quickly to volatility changes but with less noise filtering
Higher values (closer to 1.0) increase smoothing, producing more stable readings that focus on sustained volatility trends but respond more slowly
The trade-off is between immediacy and stability - there is no universally optimal setting
Selection Principles:
Match to your decision speed: If you need to react quickly to volatility changes for entries/exits, use lower VF; if you're making longer-term risk assessments, use higher VF
Match to market character: Noisier, choppier markets may benefit from higher VF for clearer signals; cleaner trending markets may work well with lower VF for faster response
Match to your preference: Some traders prefer responsive indicators even with occasional false signals, others prefer stable indicators even with some delay
Practical Adjustment Guidelines:
Start with default 0.7 and observe how T3 ATR behavior aligns with your trading needs over multiple sessions
If readings seem too unstable or noisy for your decisions: Try increasing VF toward 0.9-1.0 for heavier smoothing
If the indicator lags too much behind volatility changes you care about: Try decreasing VF toward 0.3-0.5 for faster response
Make meaningful adjustments (0.2-0.3 changes) rather than small increments - subtle differences are often imperceptible in practice
Test adjustments in simulation or paper trading before applying to live positions
📈 PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS & COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
Responsiveness Characteristics:
The T3 smoothing algorithm provides improved responsiveness compared to traditional RMA smoothing used in standard ATR. The triple exponential design with volume factor control allows the indicator to respond more quickly to genuine volatility changes while maintaining the ability to filter noise through appropriate VF settings. This results in earlier detection of volatility regime changes compared to standard ATR, particularly valuable for risk management and position sizing adjustments.
Signal Stability:
Unlike simple smoothing methods that may produce erratic signals during transitional periods, T3 ATR's multi-layer exponential smoothing provides more stable signal progression. The volume factor parameter allows traders to tune signal stability to their preference, with higher VF settings producing remarkably smooth volatility profiles that help avoid overreaction to temporary market fluctuations.
Comparison with Standard ATR:
Adaptability: T3 ATR allows adjustment of smoothing characteristics through the volume factor without changing the ATR period, whereas standard ATR requires changing the period length to alter responsiveness, potentially affecting the fundamental volatility measurement
Lag Reduction: At lower volume factor settings, T3 ATR responds more quickly to volatility changes than standard ATR with equivalent periods, providing earlier signals for risk management adjustments
Noise Filtering: At higher volume factor settings, T3 ATR provides superior noise filtering compared to standard ATR, producing cleaner signals for long-term analysis without sacrificing volatility measurement accuracy
Flexibility: A single T3 ATR configuration can serve multiple trading styles by adjusting only the volume factor, while standard ATR typically requires multiple instances with different periods for different trading applications
Suitable Use Cases:
T3 ATR is well-suited for the following scenarios:
Dynamic Risk Management: When position sizing and stop-loss placement need to adapt quickly to changing volatility conditions
Multi-Style Trading: When a single volatility indicator must serve different trading approaches (day trading, swing trading, position trading)
Volatile Markets: When standard ATR produces too many false volatility signals during choppy conditions
Systematic Trading: When algorithmic systems require a single, configurable volatility input that can be optimized for different instruments
Market Regime Analysis: When clear identification of volatility expansion and contraction phases is critical for strategy selection
Known Limitations:
Like all technical indicators, T3 ATR has limitations that users should understand:
Historical Nature: T3 ATR is calculated from historical price data and cannot predict future volatility with certainty
Smoothing Trade-offs: The volume factor setting involves a trade-off between responsiveness and smoothness - no single setting is optimal for all market conditions
Extreme Events: During unprecedented market events or gaps, T3 ATR may not immediately reflect the full scope of volatility until sufficient data is processed
Relative Measurement: T3 ATR values are most meaningful in relative context (compared to recent history) rather than as absolute thresholds
Market Context Required: T3 ATR measures volatility magnitude but does not indicate price direction or trend quality - it should be used in conjunction with directional analysis
Performance Expectations:
T3 ATR is designed to help traders measure and adapt to changing market volatility conditions. When properly configured and applied:
It can help reduce position risk during volatile periods through appropriate position sizing
It can help identify optimal times for more aggressive position sizing during stable periods
It can improve stop-loss placement by adapting to current market conditions
It can assist in strategy selection by identifying volatility regimes
However, volatility measurement alone does not guarantee profitable trading. T3 ATR should be integrated into a comprehensive trading approach that includes directional analysis, proper risk management, and sound trading psychology.
USAGE NOTES
This indicator is designed for technical analysis and educational purposes. T3 ATR provides adaptive volatility measurement but has limitations and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions. The indicator measures historical volatility patterns, and past volatility characteristics do not guarantee future volatility behavior. Market conditions can change rapidly, and extreme events may produce volatility readings that fall outside historical norms.
Traders should combine T3 ATR with directional analysis tools, support/resistance analysis, and other technical indicators to form a complete trading strategy. Proper backtesting and forward testing with appropriate risk management is essential before applying T3 ATR-based strategies to live trading. The volume factor parameter should be optimized for specific instruments and trading styles through careful testing rather than assuming default settings are optimal for all applications.
PRIMO+ (dc_77)PRIMO+ (dc_77) - Advanced Multi-Session Trading System
Overview
This comprehensive trading indicator combines market structure analysis, Fair Value Gap (FVG) detection, and multi-timeframe bias assessment to identify high-probability trading opportunities during key market sessions. The system operates on a sophisticated framework that evaluates market sentiment across multiple reference points and provides complete trade management projections.
Core Features
Multi-Timeframe Bias System
The indicator establishes directional bias by analyzing price action relative to four critical reference points:
- 18:00 NY Open: Previous day's market opening level
- 00:00 Midnight: Daily reset reference price
- 09:30 NY Open: Current session market opening
- 09:45 NY Open: Key institutional entry timeframe
Bias Logic:
- LONGS Bias: Price trading below ALL reference levels (institutional accumulation zone)
- SHORTS Bias: Price trading above ALL reference levels (institutional distribution zone)
- BEWARE: Mixed signals across reference points (avoid trading)
Four-Session Architecture
The system monitors four distinct trading sessions, each representing different market participant activities:
1. Session 1 (09:45-10:20): London/NY overlap - high liquidity period
2. Session 2 (10:45-11:30): NY continuation - institutional positioning
3. Session 3 (13:50-14:10): Pre-close positioning - smart money moves
4. Session 4 (15:50-16:05): Market close - final institutional plays
Each session can be individually enabled/disabled with custom time ranges.
Advanced Fair Value Gap Detection
The indicator identifies three-candle imbalances using sophisticated filtering:
FVG Classification:
- Bullish FVGs: Gaps between candle 3 high and candle 1 low (upward imbalance)
- Bearish FVGs: Gaps between candle 1 high and candle 3 low (downward imbalance)
Dynamic Filtering System:
- Bias alignment filtering (only shows FVGs aligned with overall market bias)
- Trend direction filtering (FVGs must align with market structure)
- Session-based activation/deactivation
- Real-time gap validation and invalidation

The system provides analysis tools and projections but does not guarantee profitable trades. Market conditions change rapidly, and no indicator can predict future price movements with certainty.
Additional Risk Warnings and Disclaimers
Trading Addiction and Mental Health: Trading can become psychologically addictive and may lead to compulsive behavior, financial ruin, and severe emotional distress. If you find yourself unable to stop trading, risking money you cannot afford to lose, neglecting personal relationships or responsibilities, or experiencing extreme emotional swings based on trading outcomes, please seek help from a qualified mental health professional. The excitement of potential profits can mask serious underlying issues with impulse control and risk-taking behavior.
No Guarantee of Performance: This indicator has not been independently verified or audited. Backtesting results may not reflect actual trading conditions due to market slippage, execution delays, spread variations, and changing market dynamics. Historical performance is not indicative of future results, and all trading strategies can and do lose money.
Market Risk Acknowledgment: Financial markets can experience extreme volatility, flash crashes, liquidity crises, and unprecedented events that render technical analysis ineffective. Economic announcements, geopolitical events, and central bank policies can cause rapid price movements that invalidate technical setups instantly.
Position Sizing and Capital Preservation: Never risk more than 1-2% of your total account on any single trade. Proper position sizing is more important than any trading signal. Multiple consecutive losses are normal and expected - ensure your account can withstand extended drawdown periods without impairing your ability to continue trading or meet personal financial obligations.

Smart Money Liquidity Zones ProThe Smart Money Liquidity Zones Pro indicator identifies and visualizes key liquidity areas in the market where institutional traders (smart money) are likely to have placed their stop-loss orders. These zones represent areas of high liquidity that often act as magnets for price, making them valuable reference points for trading decisions.
What the Indicator Does
Core Functionality
Swing Point Detection: The indicator identifies significant swing highs and lows using three different methods (Classic, Fractal, or Combined) to locate potential liquidity pools.
Liquidity Zone Creation: At each valid swing point, the indicator creates a horizontal zone representing an area where stop-loss orders are likely clustered.
Zone Clustering: When multiple swing points occur near the same price level, the indicator intelligently combines them into larger cluster zones, indicating stronger liquidity areas.
Volume Confirmation: The indicator can filter zones based on volume, showing only those swing points that occurred with significant trading volume.
Zone Break Detection: When price closes through a liquidity zone, the indicator marks it as "Liquidity Taken" and removes the zone from the chart.
Zone Types
Buy-Side Liquidity Zones (Green): Created at swing highs where short sellers' stop-losses are likely placed
Sell-Side Liquidity Zones (Red): Created at swing lows where long traders' stop-losses are likely placed
Trading Strategies
Basic Concepts
Liquidity Runs: Price often moves toward these zones to trigger stop-loss orders before reversing. This creates trading opportunities.
Support and Resistance: Unbroken liquidity zones can act as support (sell-side) or resistance (buy-side) levels.
Breakout Confirmation: When price breaks through a zone with strong momentum, it often continues in that direction.
Entry Strategies
Strategy 1: Liquidity Grab Reversa l
Wait for price to spike into a liquidity zone
Look for rejection candles (wicks) at the zone
Enter in the opposite direction after confirmation
Place stop-loss beyond the liquidity zone
Strategy 2: Zone Break Continuation
Wait for price to close decisively through a zone
Enter on the retest of the broken zone
Target the next liquidity zone in the direction of the break
Strategy 3: Zone Clustering Trade
Focus on areas with multiple overlapping zones (clusters)
These areas offer higher probability setups
Trade bounces from cluster zones with tighter risk management
Risk Management
Always use stop-losses beyond the liquidity zones
Consider the overall market context and trend
Zones on higher timeframes are generally more significant
Volume-confirmed zones have higher reliability

Tips for Effective Use
Start with default settings and adjust based on your trading style and timeframe
Use multiple timeframes to identify confluence between zones on different scales
Combine with other indicators like trend analysis or momentum oscillators
Pay attention to clusters as they represent stronger liquidity areas
Monitor volume-confirmed zones for higher probability setups
Adjust zone duration based on your trading timeframe (shorter for scalping, longer for swing trading)
Use the debug feature if zones aren't appearing to understand why
Keep the chart clean by limiting the number of visible zones
Common Issues and Solutions
No zones appearing:
Lower the Swing Strength setting
Switch to Combined detection method
Disable volume filter if active
Check if there's enough historical data
Too many zones:
Increase Swing Strength
Enable volume filter
Reduce Max Number of Visible Zones
Increase Cluster Threshold
Zones disappearing too quickly:
Increase Max Zone Duration
Check if zones are being broken by price
Poor performance on higher timeframes:
Enable Auto-Adjust for Timeframe
Use appropriate Swing Strength for the timeframe
Consider using Classic method instead of Fractal
PineConnector [Extension] | FractalystWhat is the PineConnector Extension?
The PineConnector Extension is a sophisticated bridge indicator designed to seamlessly connect Quantify trading signals with PineConnector's automated execution system.
This extension transforms manual signal monitoring into fully automated trading by interpreting Quantify's signal outputs and converting them into executable PineConnector commands.
Unlike standalone trading indicators, this extension serves as a communication layer between your signal generation (Quantify indicator) and trade execution (PineConnector), enabling hands-free trading across multiple timeframes and instruments.
How does the signal processing work?
The extension processes four distinct signal types from Quantify indicators:
Signal Values:
1 = Buy/Long signal - Opens bullish positions
-1 = Sell/Short signal - Opens bearish positions
0.5 = Close Long - Closes all long positions
-0.5 = Close Short - Closes all short positions
The script continuously monitors the "Signal Source" input, which should be connected to any Quantify indicator's output. When a signal is detected, the extension automatically generates the corresponding PineConnector command with your configured parameters.
What are the available order types and how do they work?
The extension supports three order execution modes:
Market Orders:
- Execute immediately at current market price
- Highest execution probability
- Subject to slippage during volatile conditions
Limit Orders:
- Execute only when price reaches a more favorable level
- Buy limits placed below current price
- Sell limits placed above current price
- Dynamic pip offset calculated using ATR-based volatility
Stop Orders:
- Execute when price breaks beyond specified levels
- Buy stops placed above current price
- Sell stops placed below current price
- Useful for breakout strategies
Dynamic Pricing Calculation:
The extension calculates optimal entry prices using volatility-adjusted pip offsets:
priceVolatility = ta.atr(14) / close * 100
volatilityFactor = math.min(math.max(priceVolatility / 0.1, 0.5), 2.0)
pipsOffset = 10 * volatilityFactor
How does the risk management system work?
Risk Percentage:
The extension uses percentage-based position sizing where you specify the risk per trade (0.1% to 10.0%). This value is passed to PineConnector, which calculates the exact position size based on:
- Account balance
- Stop loss distance
- Instrument specifications
- Broker settings
Stop Loss Integration:
- The "Stop Source" input connects to external stop loss levels from Quantify or other indicators. - This ensures:
- Consistent risk-reward ratios
- Dynamic stop placement based on market structure
- Automatic position sizing calculations
Multi-Asset Compatibility:
The extension automatically detects instrument types and adjusts pip calculations:
Forex: mintick * 10
Crypto: mintick * 10
Other assets: mintick * 1
What does the information display table show?
The real-time status table provides essential configuration monitoring:
Status Indicators:
- License: Shows PineConnector license ID status (Blue = Set, Red = Missing)
- Security: Displays secret key status (Blue = Set, Orange = Disabled)
- Comment: Shows trade comment or timeframe if empty
- Symbol: Current trading symbol (manual override or chart symbol)
- Order Type: Active execution mode (Market/Limit/Stop)
- Risk: Risk percentage with color coding (Blue ≤1%, Orange >1%)
- Signal: Connection status (Blue = Connected, Red = Not Set)
- Stop: Stop loss source status (Blue = Connected, Red = Not Set)
Color Coding System:
Blue: Optimal/Connected
Orange: Warning/Moderate risk
Red: Error/Not configured

Support & Resistance AriesSupport & Resistance Aries
This indicator automatically identifies support and resistance levels based on the highest and lowest closing prices within a configurable period.
How it works:
The user sets a calculation period (default is 20 candles).
The indicator plots:
Green line = Support: lowest closing price within the period.
Red line = Resistance: highest closing price within the period.
Adjustable parameter:
Calculation Period (1 to 200): defines how many candles are used to find the price extremes.
Purpose:
Helps users quickly visualize dynamic support and resistance zones that adjust as price evolves, making it easier to identify areas for potential entries, exits, and stop placements.
Important:
This indicator should not be used as a standalone buy or sell signal, nor as a trend confirmation tool on its own.
It is recommended to use it in combination with other technical analysis tools such as MACD, RSI, Volume, Moving Averages, among others, for a more complete market view.
Disclaimer:
Investing involves financial risk. Be cautious with both profits and losses. Always define a stop loss to avoid larger losses if the trend reverses.
One of the golden rules in trading is: a trader should not lose more than 3% to 5% of their capital per trade. Protecting your capital should always be the priority.

MTS📊 MTS (Murrey Math System) Trading Strategy for TradingView 📊
Introduction:
This script implements the Murrey Math System (MTS), a market analysis tool based on a set of pivot points and price ranges, designed to help traders identify key levels of support and resistance.
MTS calculates key price levels based on historical price swings and helps identify price targets, stop-loss levels, and potential breakout zones.
The strategy also includes an adaptive bias panel, showing buy or sell suggestions based on current price action relative to Murrey Math levels.
Key Components:
1. Pivot Calculation and Conditions:
Pivot Lookback & Spikeyness Index:
The pivots: lookback/forward input defines how far back (and forward) the script looks to identify potential pivot points (high and low). A smaller value focuses on more recent swings, while larger values consider a broader range.
The Spikeyness Index (atrMult) allows you to adjust sensitivity to market spikes, utilizing the Average True Range (ATR) to detect sharp price movements that could indicate potential turning points.
Pivot Conditions:
isPivHigh and isPivLow detect local high and low pivot points, respectively.
Spiky Conditions: The spikyH and spikyL conditions filter out pivots that do not meet the spikiness criteria, which is based on ATR and moving averages.
2. Swing High and Swing Low Identification:
The script identifies and stores previous swing highs (HR_prev) and lows (LR_prev), updating them based on the current market structure.
3. Proprietary Calculation:
The propCalc input enables a proprietary calculation method for determining higher or lower levels beyond the typical Murrey Math levels, offering a more adaptive approach to price targets and support/resistance levels.
4. Murrey Math Lines (MML):
MML Calculation:
The code calculates a set of Murrey Math Lines (EightEight, FourEight, ZeroEight), which are key price levels based on the range of the price over a given time period. These levels represent major support and resistance zones, with the EightEight line indicating extremely overbought conditions and ZeroEight signaling deeply oversold conditions.
Level and Extension Lines:
The script also plots additional levels and extensions based on the range between HR and LR, representing key support/resistance levels. These levels are dynamically drawn on the chart, offering clear insights into where price might reverse or break out.
Strategy Logic:
- Breakout and Breakdown:
The Bias Box panel dynamically displays a trade bias, either suggesting to "Buy on Dip" or "Sell on Rise," depending on whether the current price is above or below the midpoint of the Murrey Math range (BEP). This bias is calculated using the market's relationship to the Murrey Math Levels.
- Buy on Dip: When the price is below the midpoint (BEP), suggesting the market is in a buying zone.
- Sell on Rise: When the price is above the midpoint, suggesting the market is in a selling zone.
- Stop-Loss and Target Hints:
The stop-loss (SL) and target levels are dynamically set based on the position relative to HR and LR:
For Buy on Dip: SL is set at LR Low, Target is set at HR High.
For sell on Rise: SL is set at HR Low, Target is set at LR High.
2. Historical and Current Levels:
The script compares the most recent Murrey Math levels with historical levels. This helps identify any shifts or changes in the market structure, enhancing the trader's ability to adapt to new trends.
- Current Levels:
The current levels are drawn from the most recent HR and LR values, with corresponding extensions showing possible breakout or breakdown zones.
- Historical Levels:
Historical levels are drawn in a "ghost" style, helping traders visualize past market conditions and potential support/resistance zones that could still influence price movement.
- Trade Examples:
Example 1: Buy on Dip
a. Scenario:
Price is below the midpoint (BEP), and the bias suggests a buy on dip.
The trader looks for a rebound from the LR Low level, with a target at the HR High.
b. Entry:
Buy when the price reaches the LR Low level.
c. Exit:
Take profit when the price hits the HR High.
d. Stop-Loss:
Place stop-loss at the LR Low.
Example 2: Sell on Rise
a. Scenario:
Price is above the midpoint (BEP), and the bias suggests a sell on rise.
The trader looks for a pullback to the HR Low, with a target at the LR High.
b. Entry:
Sell when the price reaches the HR High level.
c. Exit:
Take profit when the price hits the LR Low.
d. Stop-Loss:
Place stop-loss at the HR Low.
Key Features:
Bias Panel: A table in the top-right corner showing the current market bias (Buy on Dip, Sell on Rise, or Neutral).
Displays real-time trade direction and risk information, such as stop-loss and target hints.
Dynamic Level Adjustment: As the price moves, the script dynamically updates the key levels (HR, LR, and Murrey Math lines), keeping traders aware of the most recent market structure.
Visualization Tools:
The chart is populated with a series of lines and labels that indicate the critical price levels for trading.
Support/Resistance Lines: Each key level is marked with different colors for quick recognition.
Extensions: Additional lines are plotted based on price projections, indicating where the market could potentially move.
Note:
Please note that this is an educational purpose idea, any action/trade taken will be user's own responsibility.
Enjoy!
Regards.
OTE & A-B-C Zone Indicator SwiftEdgeOTE & A-B-C Zone Indicator SwiftEdge
Overview
The OTE & A-B-C Zone Indicator SwiftEdge is a versatile tool designed to help traders identify high-probability trading setups using a combination of Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) zones, Fibonacci levels, and A-B-C price patterns. This indicator is particularly useful for traders who rely on price action and Fibonacci-based strategies to find entry points, set stop-losses, and target potential take-profit levels. By integrating swing point detection, trend analysis, and Fibonacci projections, SwiftEdge provides a clear visual framework for making informed trading decisions across various timeframes.
What It Does
SwiftEdge identifies key price levels and zones to guide your trading:
OTE Zone: Highlights the Optimal Trade Entry zone between swing points A (swing high) and B (swing low) using Fibonacci retracement levels (default: 0.618 to 0.786). This zone represents a high-probability area for price reversals, making it an ideal entry point for trades.
A-B-C Pattern: Marks the latest swing points as A (swing high), B (swing low), and C (projected take-profit level) with dashed lines and labels. A solid line connects A to B to C, visually illustrating the price movement from entry to target.
Take-Profit Zones: Projects three customizable take-profit levels (TP1, TP2, TP3) based on Fibonacci extensions (default: 1.272, 1.618, 2.0) from the A-B swing, helping traders plan exits with favorable risk-reward ratios.
How It Works
SwiftEdge combines several technical components to create a cohesive trading system:
Swing Point Detection: Identifies significant swing highs (A) and swing lows (B) using a dynamic lookback period that adjusts to the selected timeframe. On lower timeframes like 1-minute charts, an ATR-based filter reduces noise by requiring price movements to exceed a threshold (0.5 * ATR(14)).
Trend Analysis: Uses an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to determine the trend direction (default: 50-period EMA on 1H). The indicator marks uptrends (price above EMA) in green and downtrends (price below EMA) in red, ensuring trades align with the market's direction.
Fibonacci Levels: Applies Fibonacci retracement to define the OTE zone between A and B, and Fibonacci extensions to project take-profit levels (C) beyond the initial swing. This approach leverages the natural tendency of markets to respect Fibonacci ratios for reversals and extensions.
Visual Clarity: Displays only the latest A-B-C pattern with three dashed lines (A, B, C) and a solid connecting line, ensuring the chart remains uncluttered and easy to interpret.
The combination of these elements creates a structured setup where the OTE zone (between A and B) serves as an entry point, while the projected C level offers a target, all within the context of the prevailing trend. This synergy makes SwiftEdge a powerful tool for traders seeking to combine price action, trend analysis, and Fibonacci strategies.
How to Use
Add the Indicator: Apply the indicator to your chart via TradingView's indicator menu.
Identify the Trend: The OTE zone and A-B-C pattern will be colored green in uptrends (price above EMA) or red in downtrends (price below EMA). Use this to determine the market direction.
Entry Point: Look for price reversals within the OTE zone (between A and B). This zone is typically between the 0.618 and 0.786 Fibonacci retracement levels of the A-B swing, making it a high-probability area for entries.
Stop-Loss: Place your stop-loss below the OTE zone in an uptrend (or above in a downtrend) to protect against false breakouts.
Take-Profit Targets: Use the projected take-profit zones (TP1, TP2, TP3) as potential exit levels. These are based on Fibonacci extensions and can be toggled on/off in the settings.
Customization:
Adjust the Fibonacci levels for the OTE zone (Fibonacci Level 1 and Fibonacci Level 2) to suit your strategy.
Modify the take-profit levels (Fibonacci Extension Level for TP1/TP2/TP3) to target different extension ratios.
Change the lookback period (Base Lookback Period) and EMA period (Base EMA Period) to fine-tune swing point detection and trend sensitivity.
Customize colors for uptrends, downtrends, and A-B-C lines to match your preferences.
What Makes It Unique
SwiftEdge stands out by integrating swing point detection, Fibonacci-based OTE zones, and A-B-C price patterns into a single, visually intuitive indicator. Unlike standalone Fibonacci tools or trend indicators, SwiftEdge combines these elements to provide a complete trading setup: it identifies entry zones (OTE), confirms trend direction (EMA), and projects take-profit targets (Fibonacci extensions). The dynamic timeframe adjustment ensures consistent performance across all chart intervals, while the clean A-B-C visualization (with only the latest pattern displayed) prevents chart clutter, making it easier to focus on the most relevant price levels.
Notes
This indicator is designed for traders familiar with price action and Fibonacci strategies. It does not guarantee profits and should be used in conjunction with other analysis tools and proper risk management.
Performance may vary depending on market conditions and timeframe. Test the indicator on a demo account before using it in live trading.
[TehThomas] - ICT Liquidity sweepsThe ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator is designed to track liquidity zones in the market areas where stop-losses and pending orders are typically clustered. This indicator marks buyside liquidity (resistance) and sellside liquidity (support), helping traders identify areas where price is likely to manipulate liquidity before making a significant move.
This tool is based on Inner Circle Trader (ICT) Smart Money Concepts, which emphasize how institutional traders, or “Smart Money,” manipulate liquidity to fuel price movements. By identifying these zones, traders can anticipate liquidity sweeps and position themselves accordingly.

The script automatically identifies significant swing highs and swing lows in price action using a pivot-based method.
A swing high (buyside liquidity) is a peak where price struggles to break higher, forming a resistance level.
A swing low (sellside liquidity) is a valley where price struggles to go lower, creating a support level.
These liquidity points are prime targets for liquidity sweeps before a true trend direction is confirmed.
2️⃣ Draws Liquidity Lines
Once a swing high or low is identified, a horizontal line is drawn at that level.
The lines extend to the right, serving as future liquidity targets until they are broken.
The indicator allows customization in terms of color, line width, and maximum number of liquidity lines displayed at once.
3️⃣ Handles Liquidity Sweeps
When price breaks a liquidity level, the indicator reacts based on the chosen action setting:
Dotted/Dashed: The line remains visible but changes style to indicate a sweep.
Delete: The line is completely removed once price has interacted with it.
This feature ensures that traders can easily spot where liquidity has been taken and determine whether a reversal or continuation is likely.
4️⃣ Prevents Chart Clutter
To maintain a clean chart, the script limits the number of liquidity lines displayed at any given time.
When new liquidity zones are formed, the oldest lines are automatically removed, keeping the focus on the most relevant liquidity zones.
🎯 How to Use the ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator
🔍 Identifying Liquidity Grabs
This indicator helps you identify areas where Smart Money is targeting liquidity before making a move.
Buyside Liquidity (BSL) Sweeps:
Occur when price spikes above a resistance level before reversing downward.
Indicate that Smart Money has hunted stop-losses and buy stops before driving price lower.
Sellside Liquidity (SSL) Sweeps:
Occur when price drops below a support level before reversing upward.
Indicate that Smart Money has collected liquidity from stop-losses and sell stops before pushing price higher.
📈 Combining with Market Structure Shifts (MSS)
One of the best ways to use this indicator is in conjunction with our Market Structure Shifts Indicator.
Liquidity sweeps + MSS Confirmation give strong high-probability trade setups:
Wait for a liquidity sweep (price takes out a liquidity level).
Look for an MSS in the opposite direction (e.g., price sweeps a high, then breaks a recent low).
Enter the trade in the new direction with stop-loss above/below the liquidity sweep.
📊 Entry & Exit Strategies
Long Trade Example:
Price sweeps a key sellside liquidity level (SSL) → creates a false breakdown.
MSS confirms a reversal (price breaks structure upwards).
Enter long position after confirmation.
Stop-loss below the liquidity grab to minimize risk.
Short Trade Example:
Price sweeps a key buyside liquidity level (BSL) → takes liquidity above resistance.
MSS confirms a bearish move (price breaks a key support level).
Enter short position after confirmation.
Stop-loss above the liquidity grab.
🚀 Why This Indicator is a Game-Changer
✅ Helps Identify Smart Money Manipulation – Understand where institutions are likely to grab liquidity before the real move happens.
✅ Enhances Market Structure Analysis – When paired with MSS, liquidity sweeps become powerful signals for trend reversals.
✅ Filters Out False Breakouts – Many traders get caught in liquidity grabs. This indicator helps avoid bad entries.
✅ Keeps Your Chart Clean – The auto-limiting feature ensures that only the most relevant liquidity levels remain visible.
✅ Works on Any Timeframe – Whether you’re a scalper, day trader, or swing trader, liquidity concepts apply universally.
📌 Final Thoughts
The ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator is a must-have tool for traders who follow Smart Money Concepts. By tracking liquidity levels and highlighting sweeps, it allows traders to enter trades with precision while avoiding false breakouts.
When combined with Market Structure Shifts (MSS), this strategy becomes even more powerful, offering traders an edge in spotting reversals and timing entries effectively.
