Volume Cluster Support and Resistance Levels [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
This indicator identifies statistically significant support and resistance levels through volume cluster analysis, isolating price zones characterized by elevated trading activity and institutional participation. By quantifying areas where volume concentration exceeded historical norms, it reveals price levels with demonstrated supply-demand imbalances that exhibit persistent influence on subsequent price action. The methodology is asset-agnostic and timeframe-independent, applicable across equities, cryptocurrencies, forex, and commodities from intraday to weekly intervals.
🟢 Key Features
1. Support and Resistance Levels
The indicator scans historical price data to identify bars where volume exceeds a user-defined threshold multiplier relative to the rolling average. For each qualifying bar, a representative price is calculated using the average of high, low, and close. Proximate price levels within a specified percentage range are then aggregated into discrete clusters using volume-weighted averaging, eliminating redundant signals. Clusters are ranked by cumulative volume to determine statistical significance. Finally, the indicator plots horizontal levels at each cluster price: support levels (green) below current price indicate zones where historical buying pressure exceeded selling pressure, while resistance levels (red) above current price mark zones where sellers historically dominated. These levels represent areas of established liquidity and price discovery, where institutional order flow previously concentrated.
The Touch Count (T) metric quantifies historical price interaction frequency, while Total Volume (TV) measures aggregate trading activity at each level, providing objective criteria for assessing level strength and trade execution decisions.
2. Volume Histogram
A histogram appears below the price chart, displaying relative volume for each bar within the lookback period, with bar height scaled to the maximum volume observed. Green bars represent up-periods (close > open) indicating buying pressure, while red bars show down-periods (close < open) indicating selling pressure. This visualization helps you confirm the validity of support/resistance levels by seeing where volume actually spiked, identify accumulation/distribution patterns, and validate breakouts by checking if they occur on above-average volume.
3. Built-in Alerts
Automated alerts trigger when price crosses below support levels or breaks above resistance levels, allowing you to monitor multiple assets without constant chart-watching.
4. Customizable Color Schemes
The indicator provides four preset color configurations (Classic, Aqua, Cosmic, Custom) optimized for visual clarity across different charting environments. Each scheme maintains consistent color mapping for support and resistance zones across both level lines and volume histogram components. The Custom configuration permits full color specification to accommodate individual charting setups, ensuring optimal visual contrast for extended analysis sessions.

🟢 Pro Tips
→ Trade entry optimization: Execute long positions at support levels with high touch counts or upon confirmed resistance breakouts accompanied by above-average volume
→ Risk parameter definition: Position stop-loss orders near identified support/resistance zones with statistical significance to minimize premature exits
→ Breakout validation: Require volume confirmation exceeding historical average when price penetrates resistance to filter false breakouts
→ Level strength assessment: Prioritize levels with higher touch counts and total volume metrics for enhanced probability trade setups
→ Multi-timeframe confluence: Synthesize support/resistance levels across multiple timeframes to identify high-conviction zones where daily support aligns with 4-hour resistance structures

ZenAlgo - BoxerThe indicator visualizes multi-timeframe VWAP-based range structures (Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, Semi-Annual, and Yearly).
It computes and projects statistically derived price envelopes for each period, showing where price has traded relative to the corresponding VWAP and its deviations.
This allows visual comparison of how far current price extends from typical value zones within different temporal contexts.
Core Logic
1. VWAP and Standard Deviation Calculation
For each enabled period (week, month, quarter, half-year, year), the script:
Detects the start of the new period (e.g., Monday for weekly, the first day of the month for monthly, etc.).
Initializes cumulative values for price and volume.
Updates them bar-by-bar until the next anchor point occurs.
Computes VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) .
Computes Variance of price around VWAP weighted by volume, from which standard deviation is derived. These metrics reset at each new period start.
The calculation method ensures that the VWAP curve reflects the average transaction price weighted by traded volume , while standard deviation measures the dispersion of trading activity around that mean.
2. Range Box Construction
When a new period begins and sufficient data from the previous one exists:
The script draws a rectangular box extending from the previous period’s VWAP ± N × standard deviation.
N can take fractional steps (0.5 – 10) controlled via user inputs.
Each deviation represents a horizontal boundary capturing incremental probability zones around VWAP.
The box remains visible for the following period, effectively showing statistical footprints of previous ranges .
Boxes can be limited in number (history limit) to control chart clutter.
3. Dynamic VWAP Bands
For the active period, the script also plots live VWAP bands up to ±3 standard deviations:
These bands continuously update within the current period.
Each level (±1σ, ±2σ, ±3σ) can be toggled independently.
Colors and line thickness can be customized per timeframe.
This provides a real-time reference to where price currently trades within its statistical envelope.
4. Timeframe Validation
Each range type is restricted to appropriate resolutions:
Weekly : 5 min – 12 h (except 5 h)
Monthly : 2 h – 3 D
Quarterly : 6 h – 3 D
Semi-Annual : 12 h – 1 D
Yearly : 1 D
This prevents misalignment between anchor intervals and chart compression that would distort VWAP calculations.
5. Color Logic and Rendering
Colors for VWAP lines and deviation bands are user-selectable.
The script applies lightness adjustments (shading) to visually differentiate higher deviations.
Boxes and lines are managed through arrays with automatic cleanup once history limits are exceeded, ensuring stable performance despite the high number of graphical elements.
Interpretation of Values
VWAP line — represents the fair-value mean where the majority of trading occurred during the given period.
Deviation lines or boxes — show how far price deviates from that mean in multiples of standard deviation. (±1σ usually captures typical value area. Beyond ±2σ marks statistically extended territory where mean reversion is more probable under normal conditions.)
Overlaps between periods (e.g., weekly vs monthly) visualize multi-period confluence zones , highlighting price regions consistently valued across horizons.
Added Value over Free Indicators
Most freely available VWAP indicators compute a single continuous VWAP or simple intraday bands.
ZenAlgo – Boxer extends this concept by:
Managing multiple timeframe anchors simultaneously (weekly → yearly).
Drawing historical deviation boxes rather than just live lines, allowing spatial comparison of past value zones.
Offering fine-grained control over which deviation multiples to render (0.5–10).
Automatically enforcing timeframe compatibility to prevent distortion.
Maintaining performance through controlled object lifetimes (limiting stored lines/boxes).
Together, these design choices create a complete statistical range map rather than a single-period indicator.
How to Use
Choose a timeframe matching the intended range (see validation list).
Enable desired periods (e.g., Weekly + Monthly) for combined analysis.
Observe:
Price inside ±1σ → typical trading region.
Price beyond ±2σ → extension; potential mean-reversion area.
Intersections of multiple VWAP ranges → zones of reinforced equilibrium.
Boxes from past periods help identify how value zones migrate over time.
The indicator is purely analytical; it does not issue trading signals or evaluate trend direction.
Interpretation should always be combined with broader context such as market structure or volume analysis.
Limitations and Disclaimers
VWAP and deviation statistics assume stable intra-period volume distribution ; illiquid assets or sparse sessions may distort the result.
On too high or too low resolutions outside recommended ranges, values may appear misaligned due to bar sampling.
The indicator does not predict future movement; it only reflects historical and current price-volume relationships.
Line and box density can become high on extended history settings—adjust history limits for performance.
Summary:
ZenAlgo – Boxer builds a multi-period statistical framework around VWAP, visualizing where price has spent most of its time and how far it currently stands from those centers of value.
It allows traders to contextualize short-term fluctuations within higher-timeframe equilibrium zones in a single visual layer.

Previous D/W/M HLOCHey traders,
Here's a simple Multi-Timeframe indicator that essentially turns time and price into a box. It'll take the previous high, low, opening price, or closing price from one of the three timeframes of your choice (day, week, or month). For whatever reason I can't get the opening price to function consistently so if you find improvements feel free to let me know, this will help traders who prefer to use opening price over closing price.
Naturally this form of charting is classical and nature and some key figures you could use to study its usage are
- Richard W. Schabacker (1930s)
- Edwards & Magee (1948)
- Peter Brandt
- Stacey Burke (more on the intraday side - typically our preference)
It's usage put plainly:
- Quantifying Accumulation or Distribution
- Revealing Energy Build-Up (Compression)
- Framing Breakouts and False Breakouts
- Structuring Time
- Identifying opportunities to trade a daily, weekly, or monthly range.
Luxy BIG beautiful Dynamic ORBThis is an advanced Opening Range Breakout (ORB) indicator that tracks price breakouts from the first 5, 15, 30, and 60 minutes of the trading session. It provides complete trade management including entry signals, stop-loss placement, take-profit targets, and position sizing calculations.
The ORB strategy is based on the concept that the opening range of a trading session often acts as support/resistance, and breakouts from this range tend to lead to significant moves.
What Makes This Different?
Most ORB indicators simply draw horizontal lines and leave you to figure out the rest. This indicator goes several steps further:
Multi-Stage Tracking
Instead of just one ORB timeframe, this tracks FOUR simultaneously (5min, 15min, 30min, 60min). Each stage builds on the previous one, giving you multiple trading opportunities throughout the session.
Active Trade Management
When a breakout occurs, the indicator automatically calculates and displays entry price, stop-loss, and multiple take-profit targets. These lines extend forward and update in real-time until the trade completes.
Cycle Detection
Unlike indicators that only show the first breakout, this tracks the complete cycle: Breakout → Retest → Re-breakout. You can see when price returns to test the ORB level after breaking out (potential re-entry).
Failed Breakout Warning
If price breaks out but quickly returns inside the range (within a few bars), the label changes to "FAILED BREAK" - warning you to exit or avoid the trade.
Position Sizing Calculator
Built-in risk management that tells you exactly how many shares to buy based on your account size and risk tolerance. No more guessing or manual calculations.
Advanced Filtering
Optional filters for volume confirmation, trend alignment, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG) to reduce false signals and improve win rate.
Core Features Explained
### 1. Multi-Stage ORB Levels
The indicator builds four separate Opening Range levels:
ORB 5 - First 5 minutes (fastest signals, most volatile)
ORB 15 - First 15 minutes (balanced, most popular)
ORB 30 - First 30 minutes (slower, more reliable)
ORB 60 - First 60 minutes (slowest, most confirmed)
Each level is drawn as a horizontal range on your chart. As time progresses, the ranges expand to include more price action. You can enable or disable any stage and assign custom colors to each.
How it works: During the opening minutes, the indicator tracks the highest high and lowest low. Once the time period completes, those levels become your ORB high and low for that stage.
### 2. Breakout Detection
When price closes outside the ORB range, a label appears:
BREAK UP (green label above price) - Price closed above ORB High
BREAK DOWN (red label below price) - Price closed below ORB Low
The label shows which ORB stage triggered (ORB5, ORB15, etc.) and the cycle number if tracking multiple breakouts.
Important: Signals appear on bar close only - no repainting. What you see is what you get.
### 3. Retest Detection
After price breaks out and moves away, if it returns to test the ORB level, a "RETEST" label appears (orange). This indicates:
The original breakout level is now acting as support/resistance
Potential re-entry opportunity if you missed the first breakout
Confirmation that the level is significant
The indicator requires price to move a minimum distance away before considering it a valid retest (configurable in settings).
### 4. Failed Breakout Detection
If price breaks out but returns inside the ORB range within a few bars (before the breakout is "committed"), the original label changes to "FAILED BREAK" in orange.
This warns you:
The breakout lacked conviction
Consider exiting if already in the trade
Wait for better setup
Committed Breakout: The indicator tracks how many bars price stays outside the range. Only after staying outside for the minimum number of bars does it become a committed breakout that can be retested.
### 5. TP/SL Lines (Trade Management)
When a breakout occurs, colored horizontal lines appear showing:
Entry Line (cyan for long, orange for short) - Your entry price (the ORB level)
Stop Loss Line (red) - Where to exit if trade goes against you
TP1, TP2, TP3 Lines (same color as entry) - Profit targets at 1R, 2R, 3R
These lines extend forward as new bars form, making it easy to track your trade. When a target is hit, the line turns green and the label shows a checkmark.
Lines freeze (stop updating) when:
Stop loss is hit
The final enabled take-profit is hit
End of trading session (optional setting)
### 6. Position Sizing Dashboard
The dashboard (bottom-left corner by default) shows real-time information:
Current ORB stage and range size
Breakout status (Inside Range / Break Up / Break Down)
Volume confirmation (if filter enabled)
Trend alignment (if filter enabled)
Entry and Stop Loss prices
All enabled Take Profit levels with percentages
Risk/Reward ratio
Position sizing: Max shares to buy and total risk amount
Position Sizing Example:
If your account is $25,000 and you risk 1% per trade ($250), and the distance from entry to stop loss is $0.50, the calculator shows you can buy 500 shares (250 / 0.50 = 500).
### 7. FVG Filter (Fair Value Gap)
Fair Value Gaps are price inefficiencies - gaps left by strong momentum where one candle's high doesn't overlap with a previous candle's low (or vice versa).
When enabled, this filter:
Detects bullish and bearish FVGs
Draws semi-transparent boxes around these gaps
Only allows breakout signals if there's an FVG near the breakout level
Why this helps: FVGs indicate institutional activity. Breakouts through FVGs tend to be stronger and more reliable.
Proximity setting: Controls how close the FVG must be to the ORB level. 2.0x means the breakout can be within 2 times the FVG size - a reasonable default.
### 8. Volume & Trend Filters
Volume Filter:
Requires current volume to be above average (customizable multiplier). High volume breakouts are more likely to sustain.
Set minimum multiplier (e.g., 1.5x = 50% above average)
Set "strong volume" multiplier (e.g., 2.5x) that bypasses other filters
Dashboard shows current volume ratio
Trend Filter:
Only shows breakouts aligned with a higher timeframe trend. Choose from:
VWAP - Price above/below volume-weighted average
EMA - Price above/below exponential moving average
SuperTrend - ATR-based trend indicator
Combined modes (VWAP+EMA, VWAP+SuperTrend) for stricter filtering
### 9. Pullback Filter (Advanced)
Purpose:
Waits for price to pull back slightly after initial breakout before confirming the signal.
This reduces false breakouts from immediate reversals.
How it works:
- After breakout is detected, indicator waits for a small pullback (default 2%)
- Once pullback occurs AND price breaks out again, signal is confirmed
- If no pullback within timeout period (5 bars), signal is issued anyway
Settings:
Enable Pullback Filter: Turn this filter on/off
Pullback %: How much price must pull back (2% is balanced)
Timeout (bars): Max bars to wait for pullback (5 is standard)
When to use:
- Choppy markets with many fake breakouts
- When you want higher quality signals
- Combine with Volume filter for maximum confirmation
Trade-off:
- Better signal quality
- May miss some valid fast moves
- Slight entry delay
How to Use This Indicator
### For Beginners - Simple Setup
Add the indicator to your chart (5-minute or 15-minute timeframe recommended)
Leave all default settings - they work well for most stocks
Watch for BREAK UP or BREAK DOWN labels to appear
Check the dashboard for entry, stop loss, and targets
Use the position sizing to determine how many shares to buy
Basic Trading Plan:
Wait for a clear breakout label
Enter at the ORB level (or next candle open if you're late)
Place stop loss where the red line indicates
Take profit at TP1 (50% of position) and TP2 (remaining 50%)
### For Advanced Traders - Customized Setup
Choose which ORB stages to track (you might only want ORB15 and ORB30)
Enable filters: Volume (stocks) or Trend (trending markets)
Enable FVG filter for institutional confirmation
Set "Track Cycles" mode to catch retests and re-breakouts
Customize stop loss method (ATR for volatile stocks, ORB% for stable ones)
Adjust risk per trade and account size for accurate position sizing
Advanced Strategy Example:
Enable ORB15 only (disable others for cleaner chart)
Turn on Volume filter at 1.5x with Strong at 2.5x
Enable Trend filter using VWAP
Set Signal Mode to "Track Cycles" with Max 3 cycles
Wait for aligned breakouts (Volume + Trend + Direction)
Enter on retest if you missed the initial break
### Timeframe Recommendations
5-minute chart: Scalping, very active trading, crypto
15-minute chart: Day trading, balanced approach (most popular)
30-minute chart: Swing entries, less screen time
60-minute chart: Position trading, longer holds
The indicator works on any intraday timeframe, but ORB is fundamentally a day trading strategy. Daily charts don't make sense for ORB.

## Tips & Best Practices
### General Trading Tips
ORB works best on liquid instruments (stocks with good volume, major crypto pairs)
First hour of the session is most important - that's when ORB is forming
Breakouts WITH the trend have higher success rates - use the trend filter
Failed breakouts are common - use the "Min Bars Outside" setting to filter weak moves
Not every day produces good ORB setups - be patient and selective
### Position Sizing Best Practices
Never risk more than 1-2% of your account on a single trade
Use the built-in calculator - don't guess your position size
Update your account size monthly as it grows
Smaller accounts: use $ Amount mode for simplicity
Larger accounts: use % of Account mode for scaling
### Take Profit Strategy
Most traders use: 50% at TP1, 50% at TP2
Aggressive: Hold through TP1 for TP2 or TP3
Conservative: Full exit at TP1 (1:1 risk/reward)
After TP1 hits, consider moving stop to breakeven
TP3 rarely hits - only on strong trending days
### Filter Combinations
Maximum Quality: Volume + Trend + FVG (fewest signals, highest quality)
Balanced: Volume + Trend (good quality, reasonable frequency)
Active Trading: No filters or Volume only (many signals, lower quality)
Trending Markets: Trend filter essential (indices, crypto)
Range-Bound: Volume + FVG (avoid trend filter)
### Common Mistakes to Avoid
Chasing breakouts - wait for the bar to close, don't FOMO into wicks
Ignoring the stop loss - always use it, move it manually if needed
Over-leveraging - the calculator shows MAX shares, you can buy less
Trading every signal - quality > quantity, use filters
Not tracking results - keep a journal to see what works for YOU

## Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why are no signals appearing?
A: Check that you're on an intraday timeframe (5min, 15min, etc.) and that the current time is within your session hours. Also verify that "Enable Breakout Detection" is ON and at least one ORB stage is enabled. If using filters, they might be blocking signals - try disabling them temporarily.
Q: What's the best ORB stage to use?
A: ORB15 (15 minutes) is most popular and balanced. ORB5 gives faster signals but more noise. ORB30 and ORB60 are slower but more reliable. Many traders use ORB15 + ORB30 together.
Q: Should I enable all the filters?
A: Start with no filters to see all signals. If too many false signals, add Volume filter first (stocks) or Trend filter (trending markets). FVG filter is most restrictive - use for maximum quality but fewer signals.
Q: How do I know which stop loss method to use?
A: ATR works for most cases - it adapts to volatility. Use ORB% if you want predictable stop placement. Swing is for respecting chart structure. Safer gives you the most room but largest risk.
Q: Can I use this for swing trading?
A: Not really - ORB is fundamentally an intraday strategy. The ranges reset each day. For swing trading, look at weekly support/resistance or moving averages instead.
Q: Why do TP/SL lines disappear sometimes?
A: Lines freeze (stop extending) when: stop loss is hit, the last enabled take-profit is hit, or end of session arrives (if "Freeze at EOD" is enabled). This is intentional - the trade is complete.
Q: What's the difference between "First Only" and "Track Cycles"?
A: "First Only" shows one breakout UP and one DOWN per day maximum - clean but might miss opportunities. "Track Cycles" shows breakout-retest-rebreak sequences - more signals but busier chart.
Q: Is position sizing accurate for options/forex?
A: The calculator is designed for shares (stocks). For options, ignore the share count and use the risk amount. For forex, you'll need to adapt the lot size calculation manually.
Q: How much capital do I need to use this?
A: The indicator works for any account size, but practical day trading typically requires $25,000 in the US due to Pattern Day Trader rules. Adjust the "Account Size" setting to match your capital.
Q: Can I backtest this strategy?
A: This is an indicator, not a strategy script, so it doesn't have built-in backtesting. You can visually review historical signals or code a strategy script using similar logic.
Q: Why does the dashboard show different entry price than the breakout label?
A: If you're looking at an old breakout, the ORB levels may have changed when the next stage completed. The dashboard always shows the CURRENT active range and trade setup.
Q: What's a good win rate to expect?
A: ORB strategies typically see 40-60% win rate depending on market conditions and filters used. The strategy relies on positive risk/reward ratios (2:1 or better) to be profitable even with moderate win rates.
Q: Does this work on crypto?
A: Yes, but crypto trades 24/7 so you need to define what "session start" means. Use Session Mode = Custom and set your preferred daily reset time (e.g., 0000-2359 UTC).

Support and Resistance ProSupport and Resistance Pro
A method that specializes in trading at support and resistance zones, supply and demand, or POC zones of Volume Profile. This is a versatile indicator and foundation for you.
Automatically connect TradingView and MetaTrader 5 (MT5) for automatic trading and order management via PineConnector
The system includes a risk management grid including the levels: Stop Loss (SL), Break-even (BE), Trailing Stop, TP1 (1/4), TP2 (2/4), TP3 (3/4), TP4 (4/4). This grid helps you easily monitor and manage orders on TradingView in parallel with automatic order management on MT5.
Suitable for all markets: Forex, Gold, Crypto, Stocks, as long as you use MT5 and TradingView
If you do not need to trade automatically via MT5, the Support and Resistance Pro can also be used as an effective indicator in visual order management on TradingView charts, helps maintain discipline and good trading psychology (less Stress or FOMO)
Support and Resistance Pro system quick guide:
Step 1: Click a point in the support and resistance zone (supply and demand) to draw a horizontal line
When a new resistance/supply or support/demand zone appears (fresh), we draw a reaction band, including the order execution price (yellow and blue lines), and the stop loss price (red line). You can completely adjust the width of the blue and red bands with the input parameters.
Select the direction you want to trade, for example in the picture we are choosing the Sell (Short) order
Step 2: Enter the input parameters for the system including:
Direction of Long (Buy), Short (Sell), Turn Off (No trade) orders
Width of Entry price (trigger), and width of Stoploss (SL) range
Order volume, TP1, TP2, TP3, TP4 levels
Maximum number of transactions on a support and resistance zone (supply and demand)
Step 3: Set up automatic trading from TradingView via PineConnector EA and MT5
If you do not need automatic trading in MT5, skip this step. Entry signals and risk management grids will still be displayed on the TradingView chart for you to see, but there is no connection and automatic trading signal shooting and automatic order management from TradingView to MT5 via PineConnector.
We need to create an Alert in TradingView and attach it to this Indicator so that the Alert's trading signals are transmitted via MetaTrader 5 (MT5) via PineConnector.
When trading, you need to turn on 3 software at the same time to be able to connect to each other to operate: TradingView, MetaTrader 5 (MT5), PineConnector
See more details in the screenshots
Step 4 - Complete setup, and wait for trading signals
You have completed the setup steps for the Indicator, ready when there is a trading signal
You do not need to sit in front of the screen all day if you do not want. The system has been set up to execute and manage orders automatically.
Of course, sometimes you should still check your transaction status, in case of unexpected problems such as lost internet connection.
If you still have questions about this Indicator, please email tuanwukongvn@gmail.com for support.
SMC FVG/IFVG (Multi-TF x 4) [ZAUTEC]SMC FVG/IFVG (Multi-TF x 4): Multi-Timeframe Fair Value Gap with Inversed FVG Detection
This powerful Pine Script indicator is designed to help traders identify, track, and manage Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and their respective Inversed Fair Value Gaps (IFVGs) across up to four different timeframes simultaneously.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Analysis (4x): Analyze and display FVGs from four distinct timeframes alongside your current chart, offering a comprehensive view of market imbalances across various scales.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection: Automatically identifies classic three-candle FVGs (market inefficiencies).
Customizable FVG Length: Set how many bars the FVG boxes should initially extend for.
Minimum Gap Size: Filter out minor, insignificant gaps using a tick-based minimum size threshold.
Optional Box Extension: Dynamically extend FVG boxes to the current bar index or use a fixed extension for a cleaner chart.
Inversed FVG (IFVG) Logic: Detects a high-probability reversal pattern where a previously filled FVG zone is immediately followed by the formation of a new, opposite FVG within or adjacent to the same area. This confirms the old FVG has "flipped roles" (e.g., from support to resistance).
Lookback Period: Defines how long the indicator searches for a corresponding FVG breach to confirm the IFVG.
IFVG Minimum Size: Customizable minimum size threshold for the IFVG.
Dynamic Box Management:
Automatic Fill Deletion: FVGs are automatically removed from the chart when price action fully trades through the gap, signifying the imbalance has been "filled."
IFVG Tracking: IFVGs are tracked and removed from the chart after the configurable lookback period.
Full Customization: Control the visibility, colors, border styles (solid, dashed, dotted), and width for FVG, Bearish FVG, Bullish FVG, and IFVG boxes independently for each of the four timeframes.
How to Use
Select Timeframes: Choose up to four desired timeframes in the settings (e.g., "15" for 15-minute, "4H" for 4-hour, "D" for Daily). Leave the field empty to use the chart's current timeframe.
Toggle Visibility: Use the Show FVG and Show IFVG toggles to focus on the imbalances you wish to see.
Adjust Extension: Set Extend Boxes to bar index to true to keep all open FVG boxes drawn all the way to the current live price bar.
Interpret the Gaps:
FVG (Bullish/Bearish): Potential areas for price to return to and find support/resistance.
IFVG (Inverse FVG): Stronger signals that a previous zone of imbalance has been violated and is likely to act as a significant flip zone for future price movements.
This indicator is an essential tool for traders utilizing concepts like ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and SMC (Smart Money Concepts), providing a clear visual representation of market structure and liquidity voids.
HTF Order Blocks [TradeWithRon]HTF Order Blocks is a clean, multi-timeframe order-flow tool that maps bullish/bearish order blocks and optional breaker blocks from higher timeframes onto your current chart. It’s built for clarity and speed: minimal clutter, configurable labels, and optional Fibonacci extensions for quick projection work.
What it does
Identifies Order Blocks (OBs) using swing structure (configurable lookback).
Marks Breaker Blocks when an OB is breached and market structure flips.
Projects HTF zones from up to two higher timeframes (HTF1 & HTF2), with separate color themes.
Clean visuals: open lines, and smart label placement.
Optional Fibonacci extensions from each OB for quick confluence checks.
Alert-ready: receive alerts on creation of Bullish/Bearish OBs and Breakers.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Mapping
Enable HTF1 and/or HTF2 and project their OBs on your active chart.
Uses request.security() with lookahead_off to avoid future-bar leakage.
Fibonacci Add-On (optional)
How it works (logic overview)
Swing detection: Finds recent pivots using a lookback window.
OB creation:
Bullish OB: Created after price closes above a prior swing high, then scans the upswing for the most meaningful base candle range (high/low/open/close).
Bearish OB: Created after price closes below a prior swing low, with symmetric logic.
Breaker state:
A bullish OB turns breaker if price later closes below its base;
A bearish OB turns breaker if price closes above its base.
Cleanup: Breakers are removed if price subsequently recovers past the opposing OB boundary.
HTF OBs are detected on their native timeframe and projected to the active chart; confirmation occurs on the HTF bar’s close.
Continuation Suite v1 — 5m/15mContinuation Suite v1 — 5m/15m (Non-Repainting, S/R + Trend Continuation)
What it does
Continuation Suite v1 is a practical intraday toolkit that combines non-repainting trend-continuation signals with auto-built Support/Resistance (S/R) from confirmed pivots. It’s designed for fast, liquid names on 5m charts with an optional 15m higher-timeframe (HTF) overlay. You get: stacked-EMA bias, disciplined pullback+reclaim entries, optional volume/volatility gates, a “Strong” signal tier, solid S/R lines or zones, and a compact dashboard for fast reads.
⸻
Why traders use it
• Clear bias using fast/mid/slow EMA stacking.
• Actionable entries that require a pullback, a reclaim, and (optionally) a minor break of prior extremes.
• Signal quality gates (volume vs SMA, ATR%, ADX/DI alignment, EMA spacing, slope).
• Non-repainting logic when “Confirm on Close” = ON. Intrabar previews show what’s forming, but confirmed signals only print on bar close.
• S/R that matters: confirmed-pivot lines or ATR-sized zones, optional HTF overlay, and auto de-dup to avoid clutter.
⸻
Signal construction (no magic, just rules)
Bullish continuation (base):
1. Trend: EMA fast > EMA mid > EMA slow
2. Pullback: price pulls into the stack (lowest low or close vs EMA fast/mid over a lookback)
3. Reclaim: close > EMA fast and close > open
4. Break filter (optional): current bar takes out the prior bar’s high
5. Filters: volume > SMA (if enabled) and ATR% ≤ max (if enabled)
6. Cooldown: a minimum bar gap between signals
Bearish continuation (base): mirror of the above.
Strong signals: base conditions plus ADX ≥ threshold, DI alignment (DI+>DI- for longs; DI->DI+ for shorts), minimum EMA-spacing %, and minimum fast-EMA slope.
Reference stops:
• Longs: lowest low over the pullback lookback
• Shorts: highest high over the pullback lookback
Alerts are included for: Bullish Continuation, Bearish Continuation, STRONG Bullish, STRONG Bearish.
⸻
S/R engine (current TF + optional HTF)
• Builds S/R from confirmed pivots only (left/right bars).
• Choose Lines (midlines) or Zones (ATR-sized).
• Zones merge when a new pivot lands near an existing zone’s mid (ATR-scaled epsilon).
• Touches counter tracks significance; you can require a minimum to draw.
• HTF overlay (default 15m) draws separate lines/zones with tiny TF tags on the right.
• De-dup option hides current-TF zones that sit too close to HTF zones (ATR-scaled), reducing overlap.
• Freeze on Close (optional) keeps arrays stable intrabar; snapshots show levels immediately as bars open.
⸻
Presets
• Auto: Detects QQQ-like tickers (QQQ, QLD, QID) or SoFi; else defaults to Custom.
• QQQ: Tighter ATR% and EMA settings geared to index-ETF behavior.
• SoFi: Wider ATR allowances and longer mid/slow for single-name behavior.
• Custom: Expose all key inputs to tune for your product.
⸻
Dashboard (top-right)
• Preset in use
• Bias (Bullish CONT / Bearish CONT / Neutral)
• Strong (Yes/No)
• Volatility (ATR% bucket)
• Trend (ADX bucket)
• HTF timeframe tag
• Volume (bucket or “off”)
• Signals mode (Close-Confirmed vs Intrabar)
⸻
Inputs you’ll actually adjust
Trend/Signals
• Fast/Mid/Slow EMA lengths
• Pullback lookback, Min bars between signals
• Volume filter (vol > SMA N)
• ATR% max filter (cap excessive volatility)
• Require break of prior bar’s high/low
• “Strong” gates: min EMA slope, min EMA spacing %, ADX length & threshold
Support/Resistance
• Lines vs Zones
• Pivot left/right bars
• Extend left/right (bars)
• Max pivots kept (current & HTF)
• Zone width (× ATR), Merge epsilon (× ATR), Min gap (× ATR)
• Min touches, Max zones per side near price
• De-dup current TF vs HTF (× ATR)
Repainting control
• Confirm on Close: when ON, signals/SR finalize on bar close (non-repainting)
• Freeze on Close: freeze S/R intrabar with snapshot updates
• Show previews: translucent intrabar labels for what’s forming
⸻
How to use it (straightforward)
1. Load on 5-minute chart (baseline). Keep Confirm on Close ON if you hate repainting.
2. Use Bias + Strong + S/R context. If a long prints into HTF resistance, you have information.
3. Manage risk off the reference stop (pullback extreme). If ATR% reads “Great,” widen expectations; if “Poor,” size down or pass.
4. Alerts: wire the four alert types to your workflow.
⸻
Notes and constraints
• Designed for liquid symbols. Thin books and synthetic “volume” will degrade the volume gate.
• S/R is pivot-based. On very choppy tape, touch counts help. Increase min touches or switch to Lines to declutter.
• If your chart timeframe isn’t 5m, behavior changes because lengths are in bars, not minutes. Tune lengths accordingly.
⸻
Disclaimers
This is a research tool. No signals are guaranteed. Markets change, outliers happen, slippage is real. Nothing here is financial advice—use your own judgment and risk management.

Rolling Midpoint of Price & VWAP with ATR BandsThe Rolling Midpoint of Price & VWAP with ATR Bands indicator is a dual-equilibrium concept that fuses price-range structure and traded-volume flow into one continuously updating hybrid model. Traditional VWAPs reset each session and reflect where trading occurred by volume, while midpoints used here reveal where price has structurally balanced between extremes. This script merges both ideas into a cohesive, dynamic system. The Rolling Price Midpoint (50 % of range) represents the structural fair-value line, calculated as the average of the highest high and lowest low over a selected window. The Rolling VWAP (Volume-Weighted Window) tracks the flow-based fair-value line by weighting each bar’s typical price by its volume. Together, these components form the Hybrid Equilibrium — the adaptive center of gravity that shifts as price and volume evolve. Surrounding this equilibrium, ATR Bands at ± 2.226 ATR and ± 5.382 ATR define volatility envelopes that expand and contract with market energy. The result is a living cloud that breathes with the market: compressing during phases of balance and widening during impulsive movements, offering traders a clear visual framework for understanding equilibrium, volatility, and directional bias in real time.
➖
⚙️ Auto-Preset System
The Auto-Preset System intelligently adjusts lookback windows for both the Price Midpoint and VWAP calculations according to the active chart timeframe.
This ensures that the indicator automatically adapts to any trading style — from scalping on 1-minute charts to swing trading on daily or weekly charts — without manual tuning.
🔹 How It Works
When Auto-Preset mode is enabled, the script dynamically selects the most effective lookback lengths for each timeframe.
These presets are optimized to balance responsiveness and stability, maintaining consistent real-world coverage (e.g., the same approximate duration of price data) across all intervals.
📊 Preset Mapping Table
| Chart Timeframe | Price Midpoint Lookback | VWAP Lookback |
|:----------------:|:-----------------------:|:--------------:|
| 1–3m | 13 bars | 21 bars
| 5–10m | 21 bars | 34 bars
| 15–30m | 34 bars | 55 bars
| 1–2 hr | 55 bars | 89 bars
| 4 hr-1D | 89 bars | 144 bars
| 1W | 144 bars | 233 bars
| 1M | 233 bars | 377 bars
⚡ Notes & Customization
- Manual Override: Turn off Auto-Preset Mode to specify your own custom lookback lengths.
- Consistency Across Scales: These adaptive values keep the indicator visually coherent when switching between timeframes — avoiding distortions that can occur with static lengths.
- Practical Benefit: Traders can maintain a single chart layout that self-tunes seamlessly, removing the need to manually recalibrate settings when shifting from short-term to long-term analysis.
In short, the Auto-Preset System is designed to make this hybrid equilibrium tool timeframe-aware — automatically scaling its logic so that the cloud behaves consistently, regardless of chart resolution.
➖
🌐 Hybrid Equilibrium Envelope
The core hybrid midpoint acts as the mean of structural (price) and volumetric (VWAP) balance.
ATR-based bands project natural expansion zones:
🔸+2.226 / –2.226 ATR → inner equilibrium (controlled trend)
*🔸+5.382 / –5.382 ATR → outer volatility extension (over-stretch / reversion zones)
Color-coded fills show regime strength:
* 🟧 Upper Outer (+5.382) – strong bullish expansion
* 🟩 Upper Inner (+2.226) – trending equilibrium
* 🔴 Lower Inner (–2.226) – mild bearish control
* 🟣 Lower Outer (–5.382) – volatility exhaustion
➖
🧭 Higher-Timeframe Framework
Two macro anchors — Price length of 144 and VWAP length of 233 — outline higher-timeframe bias zones. These help confirm when local momentum aligns with (or fades against) long-term structure.
Labels on the right show active lookback values for quick readout:
`$(13) V(21)` → current rolling pair
`$144 / V233` → macro anchors
➖
🧩 Chart Examples
**AMD 15m (Equilibrium Expansion)**
Price steadily rides above the hybrid midpoint as teal and orange (bullish) ATR zones widen, confirming a phase of controlled bullish volatility and healthy trend expansion.
BTCUSD 1m (Volatility Compression)
Bitcoin coils tightly inside the teal-to-maroon equilibrium bands before breaking out.
The hybrid midpoint flattens and ATR envelopes contract, signaling a state of balance before volatility expansion.
ETHUSD 15m (Transition from Compression → Impulse)
Ethereum transitions from purple-zone compression into a clear upper-band expansion.
The hybrid midpoint breaks above the macro VWAP 233, confirming the shift from equilibrium to directional momentum.
SOFI 1m (Micro Bias Reversal)
SOFI’s intraday structure flips as price reclaims the hybrid midpoint.
The macro VWAP 233 flattens, signaling a transition from oversold lower bands back toward equilibrium and early trend recovery.
➖
🎯 How to Use
1. Bias Detection – Price > Hybrid Midpoint → bullish; < → bearish.
2. Volatility Gauge – Watch band spacing for compression / expansion cycles.
3. Confluence Checks – Align Hybrid Midpoint with HTF 233 VWAP for strong continuation signals.
4. Mean Reversion Zones – Outer bands highlight areas where probability of snap-back increases.

🏁 Final Word
This script is more than a visual overlay — it’s a complete trend and structure framework built to adapt with market rhythm. It helps traders visualize equilibrium, momentum, and volatility as one cohesive system. Whether you’re seeking clean trend alignment, dynamic support/resistance, or early warning signs of reversals, this indicator is tuned to help you react with confidence — not hindsight.
➖
Remember — no single indicator should ever stand alone. For best results, pair it with price action context, higher-timeframe structure, and complementary tools such as moving averages or trendlines. Use it to confirm setups, not define them in isolation.
💡 Turn logic into clarity, structure into trades, and uncertainty into confidence.
Supply & Demand Zones [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Supply & Demand (Support & Resistance) Zones indicator identifies price levels where significant buying and selling pressure historically emerged, using swing point analysis and pattern recognition to mark high-probability reversal and continuation areas. Unlike conventional support/resistance tools that draw arbitrary horizontal lines, this indicator can automatically detect structural zones, offering traders systematic entry and exit levels where institutional order flow likely congregates across any market or timeframe.
🟢 How to Use
# Zone Types:
Green/Demand Zones: Support areas where buying pressure historically emerged, representing potential long entry opportunities where price may bounce or consolidate before moving higher. These zones mark levels where buyers previously overcame sellers.
Red/Supply Zones: Resistance areas where selling pressure historically dominated, indicating potential short entry opportunities where price may reverse or stall before declining. These zones identify levels where sellers previously overwhelmed buyers.
# Zone Pattern Types:
Wick Rejection Zones: Zones created from candles with exceptionally long wicks showing violent price rejection. A demand rejection occurs when price drops sharply but closes well above the low, forming a long lower wick (relative to the total candle range) that demonstrates buyers aggressively defending that level. A supply rejection shows price spiking higher but closing well below the high, with the long upper wick proving sellers rejected that price aggressively. These zones often represent major institutional orders that absorbed significant market pressure. The rejection wick ratio setting controls how prominent the wick must be (higher ratios require more dramatic rejections and produce fewer but higher-quality zones).
Continuation Demand Zones: Areas where price rallied upward, paused in a brief consolidation base, then rallied again. This pattern confirms strong buying continuation (the consolidation represents profit-taking or minor pullbacks that failed to attract meaningful selling). When price returns to these zones, buyers who missed the initial rally often provide support, making them high-probability long entries within established uptrends. These zones follow the classic Rally-Base-Rally structure, demonstrating that buyers remain in control even during temporary pauses.
Reversal Demand Zones: Zones where price dropped, formed a consolidation base, then reversed into a rally. This structure marks potential trend reversals or major swing lows where buyers finally overwhelmed sellers after a decline. The base period represents accumulation by stronger hands, and these zones frequently appear at market bottoms or as significant pullback support within larger uptrends, signaling shifts in market control. These zones follow the Drop-Base-Rally pattern, showing the moment when selling pressure exhausted and buying interest emerged.
Continuation Supply Zones: Areas where price dropped, consolidated briefly, then dropped again. This pattern demonstrates strong selling continuation (the pause represents temporary buying attempts that failed to generate meaningful recovery). When price returns to these zones, sellers who missed the initial decline often provide resistance, creating short entry opportunities within established downtrends. These zones follow the Drop-Base-Drop structure, confirming that sellers maintain dominance even during temporary consolidations.
Reversal Supply Zones: Zones where price rallied upward, formed a consolidation base, then reversed into a decline. This formation identifies potential trend reversals or major swing highs where sellers overcame buyers after an advance. The base period often represents distribution by institutional participants, and these zones commonly appear at market tops or as key pullback resistance within larger downtrends, marking transfers of market control from buyers to sellers. These zones follow the Rally-Base-Drop pattern, capturing the transition point when buying exhaustion meets aggressive selling.
# Zone Mitigation Methods:
Wick Mitigation: Zones become invalidated immediately upon first contact by any wick. This assumes zones work only on their initial test, reflecting the belief that institutional orders concentrated at these levels get completely filled on first touch. Best for traders seeking only the highest-probability, untested zones and willing to accept that zones invalidate frequently in volatile markets. When price touches a zone boundary with even a single wick, that zone is considered "used up" and becomes mitigated.
Close Mitigation: Zones remain valid through wick penetration but become invalidated only when a candle closes through the zone boundary. This method allows price to briefly probe the zone with wicks while requiring actual commitment (a close) for invalidation. Suitable for traders who recognize that zones can withstand initial tests and prefer filtering out false breakouts caused by temporary volatility or liquidity hunts. A zone stays active as long as candles close within or outside it, regardless of wick penetration, until a close occurs beyond the boundary.
Full Body Mitigation: Zones stay valid until an entire candle body exists completely beyond the zone boundary, meaning both the open and close must be outside the zone. This approach maintains zone validity through partial penetrations, accommodating the reality that institutional zones can absorb considerable price action before exhausting. Ideal for volatile markets or traders who believe zones represent price ranges rather than precise levels, and who want zones to persist through aggressive but ultimately rejected breakout attempts. Only when both the open and close of a candle are beyond the zone does it become mitigated.
🟢 Pro Tips for Trading and Investing
→ Preset Selection: Choose presets matching your preferred timeframe - Scalping (M1-M30) for aggressive detection on minute charts, Intraday (H1-H12) for balanced filtering on hourly timeframes, or Swing Trading (1D+) for strict filtering on daily charts. Each preset automatically optimizes swing length, zone strength, and max zone counts for the selected timeframe.
→ Input Calibration: Adjust Swing Length based on market speed (lower values 3-7 for fast markets, higher values 12-20 for slower markets). Set Minimum Zone Strength according to asset volatility (0.05-0.15% for low-volatility assets, 0.25-0.5% for high-volatility assets). Tune Rejection Wick Ratio higher (0.6-0.8) for strict wick filtering or lower (0.3-0.5) to capture more subtle rejections.
→ Zone Pattern Toggle Strategy: Pattern types are mutually exclusive - enable Continuation OR Reversal patterns for each zone type, not both together. Recommended combinations: For trend trading, enable Rejection + Continuation (2-4 toggles total). For reversal trading, enable Rejection + Reversal (2-4 toggles). For scalping, enable only Rejection zones (1-2 toggles). Maximum 3-4 active toggles provides optimal chart clarity. A simple Wick Rejection toggle can also work on virtually any market and timeframe.
→ Mitigation Method Selection: Use Wick mitigation in clean trending markets for strict zone invalidation on first touch. Use Close mitigation in moderate volatility to filter out temporary spikes. Use Full Body mitigation in highly volatile markets to keep zones active through whipsaws and false breakouts.
→ Alert Configuration: Utilize built-in alerts for new zone creation, zone touches, and zone breaks. New zone alerts notify when fresh supply/demand areas form. Zone touch alerts signal potential entry opportunities as price reaches zones. Zone break alerts indicate when levels fail, signaling possible trend acceleration or structure changes.

ICT Entry Models (Riz)The ICT Entry Models Indicator is a complete framework built to help traders visualize and apply multiple Institutional concepts on a single chart. Instead of relying on one entry technique, this tool combines 14+ ICT entry models and evaluates them under a unified structure. Each model is detected independently but filtered through a multi-factor confluence engine that considers liquidity, higher-timeframe structure, premium/discount zones, and session context. This ensures only high-probability setups are highlighted.
What This Indicator Does
⦁ Detects and plots ICT-based entry models such as: Fair Value Gaps, Order Blocks, Breakers, Liquidity Grabs, Stop Hunts, Asian Range Breakouts, Silver Bullet setups, Power of Three, Judas Swing, Unicorn model, Market Maker models, Previous Day High/Low breaks, and others.
⦁ Automatically validates entries using higher timeframe confirmation and confluence filters.
⦁ Provides risk management tools with structural stop-loss, ATR-based SL, TP1/TP2 targets, and R:R calculations.
⦁ Displays visual trade labels showing direction, strength, and expected risk/reward.
⦁ Includes a performance dashboard that tracks win rates, session stats, and risk outcomes.
How It Works
Each entry model is activated through custom detection logic. The script checks for key conditions like displacement, imbalance, BOS/CHoCH, liquidity sweeps, and premium/discount zones. When multiple models align, the indicator assigns a signal strength rating.
⦁ Weak setups: Highlighted but marked lower confidence.
⦁ Strong setups: Require confluence of liquidity, structure, and time-based filters (e.g., killzones).
⦁ The indicator then calculates a safe stop-loss placement (always on the correct side of price) and take-profit levels based on Goldbach ratios and volatility expansion.
Inputs
⦁ Model Toggles: Enable/disable individual entry models (e.g., FVG only, OB only, or full confluence).
⦁ Confluence Filters: Higher-timeframe structure, premium/discount zones, volatility thresholds.
⦁ Risk Management Settings: ATR multiplier, fixed SL/TP options, R:R target adjustments.
⦁ Dashboard & Visuals: Choose which stats, labels, and levels appear on chart.
How to Use
1. Apply the indicator to any forex, crypto, or index chart.
2. Select your timeframe. For scalping, use 1–5m with HTF confirmation. For day/swing trades, use 15m–1H with HTF overlays.
3. Toggle your preferred entry models (e.g., FVG + Liquidity Sweep) or enable all for confluence.
4. Watch for strong confluence signals: entry marker + calculated SL/TP + dashboard confirmation.
5. Use the signals as decision support not as automated buy/sell triggers.
Notes & Tips
Best used in liquid markets (Majors, Gold, Indices, BTC/ETH).
HTF confirmation greatly improves accuracy e.g., align 1m entries with 15m structure.
Combining time-based models (Silver Bullet, Killzones) with structural models improves precision.

Demand & Supply Smart Zones (Riz)A professional zone engine that detects, ranks, and maintains Supply and Demand areas across multiple timeframes. It combines swing structure, engulfing/imbalance logic, optional liquidity-sweep validation, and trend/volume filters. Zones are refined, merged, aged, and removed automatically, while a dashboard and mini-map summarize the state of the market at a glance.
How it works (why this isn’t a simple mashup)
⦁ Zone Detection (Auto/Manual/Hybrid):
⦁ Auto finds zones from three independent catalysts: swing turns, engulfing patterns, and imbalance candles.
⦁ Manual lets you define a zone precisely (top/bottom + type).
⦁ Hybrid adds your manual zones on top of the model’s detections.
⦁ Strength Model: Each zone receives a score using ATR-scaled size, relative volume (vs SMA), timeframe weight (higher TF = more authority), and session context (optional Killzone boost). This surfaces the most actionable areas rather than plotting everything.
⦁ Filters for Quality (Conservative/Aggressive):
⦁ Conservative can require trend alignment (EMA), volume validation, wide-body candles, structure context, and optional liquidity sweep checks.
⦁ Aggressive relaxes filters for faster, more frequent zones (e.g., scalping).
⦁ Refinement & Styling: Zones can be refined by wick, body, or hybrid logic to avoid over-sized regions. Visuals support solid/gradient/border styles, fresh/retest labels, and a heat-map emoji for strength.
⦁ Lifecycle Management: Zones can auto-delete on touch, delete on break, shrink on retests, expire after X bars, and cap retests. Old/merged zones are cleaned up to keep charts responsive.
⦁ Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Logic: Detects and optionally normalizes HTF zones (e.g., 60/240/D). Overlapping zones are merged across TFs with the higher TF taking precedence and receiving a small strength bonus. This prevents duplication and emphasizes institutional levels.
⦁ Proximity & Interaction Alerts: Alerts can fire on approach, first entry, and break, with separate Supply/Demand variants and per-TF options. An internal tracker avoids duplicate alert spam.
On-chart tools
⦁ Zones: Supply (red) / Demand (green), with “Fresh” or “R#” labels and strength heat-map.
⦁ Dashboard: Counts zones per TF, shows nearest supply/demand (in pips), trend state, and mode.
⦁ Mini-Map: A compact list of the 10 closest zones with TF, freshness, strength, and distance.
⦁ Trend Line (optional): EMA for directional context.
⦁ Killzone Background (optional): Session emphasis for timing.
Inputs & Key Options
⦁ Detection Mode: Auto · Manual · Hybrid
⦁ Strictness: Aggressive (more zones) · Conservative (fewer, higher quality)
⦁ Catalysts: Engulfing, Imbalance (ATR + volume threshold), Swing strength
⦁ Filters: Volume multiplier, wide-body %, trend EMA, structure checks, liquidity sweep lookback
⦁ MTF: Up to 3 higher TFs, with normalization to prevent oversized zones and priority stacking
⦁ Management: Auto-delete on touch, delete on break, dynamic shrinking, expiry bars, max retests
⦁ Merging: Overlap threshold and cross-TF consolidation
⦁ Alerts: Proximity (distance in pips), First Entry (fresh touch), Break, per-TF toggles
⦁ Display: Labels, size, heat-map, merging tags, dashboard position, mini-map
How to use
1. Choose Strictness
⦁ Conservative for swing/HTF traders who prefer cleaner, stronger zones.
⦁ Aggressive for scalpers who want earlier, more frequent levels.
2. Enable MTF and set HTF1/HTF2(/HTF3). Turn on Normalization to avoid giant HTF boxes.
3. Pick Catalysts & Filters. Start with Engulfing + Imbalance + Swing. Add volume/EMA/liquidity filters for quality.
4. Watch the Dashboard: It highlights mode, counts per TF, nearest zones (with distance), and overall trend.
5. Trade the Interaction:
⦁ Proximity alert → prepare;
⦁ First entry (fresh touch) → your confirmation rules;
⦁ Break → consider flips or invalidation.
6. Manual Zones (Hybrid): Add precise institutional levels and let the engine manage them (shrink, expire, merge).
Alerts (titles you’ll see)
⦁ Zone Proximity – approach within X pips
⦁ Zone Entry / Supply Zone Entry / Demand Zone Entry – first touch
⦁ Zone Break / Supply Zone Break / Demand Zone Break – clean break
⦁ Current TF / HTF1 / HTF2 Zone Alert – timeframe-specific triggers
⦁ Any Zone Alert – catch-all for any interaction
Notes & Tips
⦁ Fresh > Retested: First touches generally score better and are labeled accordingly.
⦁ Context Matters: Combining HTF zones with trend and volume filters significantly improves selectivity.
⦁ Performance: Zone limits and periodic cleanup are built in. If you plot many HTFs with Aggressive mode, consider raising strictness or lowering max zones.

Volumatic Fair Value Gaps [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Volumatic Fair Value Gaps indicator detects and plots size-filtered Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and immediately analyzes the bullish vs. bearish volume composition inside each gap. When an FVG forms, the tool samples volume from a 10× lower timeframe , splits it into Buy and Sell components, and overlays two compact bars whose percentages always sum to 100%. Each gap also shows its total traded volume . A live dashboard (top-right) summarizes how many bullish and bearish FVGs are currently active and their cumulative volumes—offering a quick read on directional participation and trend pressure.
🔵 CONCEPTS
FVGs (Fair Value Gaps) : Imbalance zones between three consecutive candles where price “skips” trading. The script plots bullish and bearish gaps and extends them until mitigated.
Size Filtering : Only significant gaps (by relative size percentile) are drawn, reducing noise and emphasizing meaningful imbalances.
// Gap Filters
float diff = close > open ? (low - high ) / low * 100 : (low - high) / high *100
float sizeFVG = diff / ta.percentile_nearest_rank(diff, 1000, 100) * 100
bool filterFVG = sizeFVG > 15
Volume Decomposition : For each FVG, the indicator inspects a 10× lower timeframe and aggregates volume of bullish vs. bearish candles inside the gap’s span.
100% Split Bars : Two inline bars per FVG display the % Bull and % Bear shares; their total is always 100%.
Total Gap Volume : A numeric label at the right edge of the FVG shows the total traded volume associated with that gap.
Mitigation Logic : Gaps are removed when price closes through (or touches via high/low—user-selectable) the opposite boundary.
Dashboard Summary : Counts and sums the active bullish/bearish FVGs and their total volumes to gauge directional dominance.
🔵 FEATURES
Bullish & Bearish FVG plotting with independent color controls and visibility toggles.
Adaptive size filter (percentile-based) to keep only impactful gaps.
Lower-TF volume sampling at 10× faster resolution for more granular Buy/Sell breakdown.
Per-FVG volume bars : two horizontal bars showing Bull % and Bear % (sum = 100%).
Per-FVG total volume label displayed at the right end of the gap’s body.
Mitigation source option : choose close or high/low for removing/invalidating gaps.
Overlap control : older overlapped gaps are cleaned to avoid clutter.
Auto-extension : active gaps extend right until mitigated.
Dashboard : shows count of bullish/bearish gaps on chart and cumulative volume totals for each side.
Performance safeguards : caps the number of active FVG boxes to maintain responsiveness.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Turn on/off FVG types : Enable Bullish FVG and/or Bearish FVG depending on your focus.
Tune the filter : The script already filters by relative size; if you need fewer (stronger) signals, increase the percentile threshold in code or reduce the number of displayed boxes.
Choose mitigation source :
close — stricter; gap is removed when a closing price crosses the boundary.
high/low — more sensitive; a wick through the boundary mitigates the gap.
Read the per-FVG bars :
A higher Bull % inside a bullish gap suggests constructive demand backing the imbalance.
A higher Bear % inside a bearish gap suggests supply is enforcing the imbalance.
Use total gap volume : Larger totals imply more meaningful interest at that imbalance; confluence with structure/HTF levels increases relevance.
Watch the dashboard : If bullish counts and cumulative volume exceed bearish, market pressure is likely skewed upward (and vice versa). Combine with trend tools or market structure for entries/exits.
Optional: hide volume bars : Disable Volume Bars when you want a cleaner FVG map while keeping total volume labels and the dashboard.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Volumatic Fair Value Gaps blends precise FVG detection with lower-timeframe volume analytics to show not only where imbalances exist but also who powers them. The per-gap Bull/Bear % bars, total volume labels, and the cumulative dashboard together provide a fast, high-signal read on directional participation. Use the tool to prioritize higher-quality gaps, align with trend bias, and time mitigations or continuations with greater confidence.

Riz Goldbach FrameworkRiz Goldbach Framework maps a dynamic dealing range and a set of Goldbach-derived price levels to structure intraday decision-making. It blends range math (PO3), level clustering, session weighting, volume/volatility context, and an explainable scoring engine that can issue BUY/SELL signals with risk levels (SL/TP). It is designed for discretionary traders who want rules-based context rather than a black box.
Core concepts (how it works)
1) PO3 Dealing-Range Engine
⦁ The script builds a tri-based PO3 range around current price (Auto or Manual).
⦁ It shifts the range when price “accepts” outside (close/wick—user selectable) and adapts width with ATR so the range expands in high volatility and tightens in low volatility.
⦁ From this range it computes mid, premium/discount halves, and sub-mids.
2) Goldbach Levels (structure map)
Within the active PO3 range, fixed percentages anchor recurring behaviors:
⦁ Rejection edges: 3%, 97%
⦁ Order-block tendency: 11%, 89%
⦁ FVG tendency: 17%, 83%
⦁ Liquidity void / expansion: 29%, 71%
⦁ Breaker band: 41%, 59%
⦁ Mitigation band: 47%, 53%
⦁ Equilibrium: 50%
⦁ Touch/near logic is tolerance-based (body-only optional). The script also counts confluence clusters (2=moderate, 3+=strong) near price.
3) Market elements the script tracks
⦁ Order Blocks (OB): detected after BOS behavior when price is sitting on OB-biased GB levels (11/89).
⦁ FVG: 3-bar gaps at FVG-biased levels (17/83) with optional “% fill” confirmation.
⦁ LV bars: wide-range, high-range bars around 29/71 for displacement/voids.
⦁ Equal Highs/Lows (EQH/EQL): tolerance with labeling for sweep risk.
⦁ Circuit Breaker (CB): zone seeded at 41/59. States: intact → broken → retest → revalidated/failed. A shaded band shows the active breaker zone.
⦁ Twin Towers (TT): equal-high/equal-low doublet with spacing/volume/RSI checks, then sweep-and-return into the breaker zone for confirmation.
4) Context & filters
⦁ Trend vs Range: DMI/ADX + EMA stack infer TREND/RANGE/TRANSITION and scale the required score.
⦁ MTF alignment: compares current PO3 halves vs HTF PO3 halves (user timeframe), rewarding alignment and flagging divergence.
⦁ Fib–Goldbach confluence: checks 61.8/38.2/78.6/127.2/161.8 against key GB levels for added weight.
⦁ Session weighting: Asia/London/NY bias different GB levels; weights are higher for London/NY.
⦁ Volume-weighted liquidity: tracks volume at EQH/EQL to flag “high-commitment” sweeps.
⦁ AMD cycle (smart): accumulation/manipulation/distribution estimated from ATR regimes, sweeps, BOS continuation, divergence and PO3 shifts.
⦁ Optional filters: HTF bias, SMT divergence via a second symbol, VSA volume emphasis, news blackout session.
5) Signal engine
⦁ Modes: MMxM, Trending, or Hybrid (auto switches depending on CB acceptance + ATR expansion).
⦁ A score (0–100) aggregates weighted conditions (GB touch/confluence, AMD alignment, CB state, TT, FVG/OB interaction, HTF bias, SMT, high-volume, RSI momentum).
⦁ Adaptive threshold raises/lowers requirements in TREND vs RANGE.
⦁ Outputs: BUY/SELL label with strength (WEAK/NORMAL/STRONG), a reasons string (e.g., GB+AMD+Breaker+TT+FVG+HTF+RSI), and risk levels:
⦁ SL: rejection/structure anchored (e.g., GB3/GB97 or recent swing ± ATR).
⦁ TP1: opposite breaker (41/59).
⦁ TP2: opposite FVG tendency (17/83).
⦁ Live RR displayed on label and plotted as dashed lines.
⦁ Cooldown, session/time, weekend, and volatility gates suppress poor-quality or clustered signals.
What you see on the chart
⦁ PO3 bands: High/Low/Mid lines plus background shading for Premium (bear tint), Discount (bull tint), Equilibrium (neutral).
⦁ Goldbach lines: Major structure (0/50/100) plus the functional GB set (11/17/29/41/47/53/59/71/83/89/3/97).
⦁ Blocks & gaps: OB lines, FVG boxes (extend right, fill progress), LV box, breaker zone band, and TT logic states.
⦁ CE/MT: Central equilibrium (~3.5%/96.5%) and mid-towers (25%/75%) trigger optional alerts.
⦁ Session overlays: Asia/London/NY (optional).
⦁ Opens: Daily/Weekly (optional).
⦁ Dashboard: PO3 value, Zone (Premium/Discount/Equilibrium), AMD phase, Session, Mode (MMxM/Trending/Hybrid), CB state, nearest GB tag, Market context (TREND/RANGE/TRANS), recent Events, and rolling win-rate tallies (signals/CB/TT) from the current chart session.
How to use it (workflow)
1. Pick a preset
⦁ Minimal: only core structure.
⦁ Standard: levels + dashboard.
⦁ Full: adds sessions + GBT window overlays.
2. Choose range logic
⦁ PO3 Auto is reactive and scales with ATR.
⦁ Manual PO3 is for precise range control.
3. Scope your bias
⦁ Confirm Zone (Premium/Discount), CB state, and AMD phase; check MTF row if enabled.
⦁ Strong setups usually appear when session-weighted GB levels + confluence ≥ 2 + CB revalidated + AMD = manipulation → distribution (short) or accumulation → manipulation (long).
4. Act on signals (optional)
⦁ When a label prints, read the factors string and score.
⦁ Use plotted SL/TP1/TP2 lines and RR.
⦁ Respect cooldown, news blackout, and volatility filter.
Inputs you might tweak
⦁ PO3: Auto/Manual, acceptance by Close vs Wick, adaptive widening/tightening.
⦁ Levels: Major-only vs All; tolerance %; wick vs body touches.
⦁ Signals: Mode, score threshold, cooldown, confirm on close.
⦁ CB/TT: breaker width %, spacing window & tolerance, suppress bars after TT.
⦁ Filters: HTF timeframe, SMT symbol, VSA on/off, news blackout session.
⦁ Visuals: colors, line opacity, label sizes, dashboard position/size.
⦁ FVG/LV/CE/MT: fill %, and per-event alerts.
Alerts available
⦁ BUY/SELL signal, PO3 shift, GB touch (with tag), CB broken/retest pass/fail, TT setup/confirmed, OB tagged, FVG formed/filled, LV expansion, CE/MT touches.
Limitations & notes
⦁ Signals are contextual—they depend on the active PO3, tolerance, filters, session weighting, and volatility regime.
⦁ HTF requests depend on broker/exchange data and the timeframe you assign; if HTF is empty or illiquid, features degrade gracefully but may be less informative.
⦁ Win-rate tallies are session-local (not a historical performance guarantee).
⦁ Parameter choices (e.g., tolerance, breaker width, thresholds) materially change behavior.

Mean Reversion Channel [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Mean Reversion Channel indicator is a range-bound trading system that combines dynamic price channels with momentum-weighted analysis to identify optimal mean reversion opportunities. It creates adaptive upper and lower reversion zones based on recent price action and volatility, while incorporating a momentum-biased equilibrium line that shifts based on volume-weighted price momentum. This creates a three-tier system where traders and investors can identify overbought and oversold conditions within established ranges, detect momentum exhaustion points, and anticipate channel breakouts or breakdowns. This indicator is particularly valuable for strategic dollar cost averaging (DCA) strategies, as it helps identify optimal accumulation zones during oversold conditions and provides tactical risk management levels for systematic investment approaches across different market conditions and asset classes.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator employs a four-stage calculation process that transforms raw price and volume data into actionable mean reversion signals. First, it establishes the base channel by calculating the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period, creating the foundational price range for mean reversion analysis. This channel adapts continuously as new price data becomes available, ensuring the system remains relevant to current market conditions.
In the second stage, the system calculates volume-weighted momentum by combining price momentum with volume activity. The momentum calculation takes the price change over a specified period and multiplies it by the volume ratio (current volume versus 20-period average volume, for instance) and a volume factor multiplier. This creates momentum readings that are more significant during high-volume periods and less influential during low-volume conditions.
The third stage creates the dynamic reversion zones using Average True Range (ATR) calculations. The upper reversion zone is positioned below the channel high by an ATR-based distance, while the lower reversion zone is positioned above the channel low. These zones contract when momentum is negative (upper zone) or positive (lower zone), creating asymmetric reversion bands that adapt to momentum conditions.
The final stage establishes the momentum-biased equilibrium line by calculating the midpoint between the reversion zones and adjusting it based on momentum bias. When momentum is positive, the equilibrium shifts upward; when negative, it shifts downward. This creates a dynamic reference level that helps identify when price action is moving against the prevailing momentum trend, signaling potential mean reversion opportunities.
🟢 How to Use
1. Mean Reversion Signal Identification
Lower Reversion Zone Signals: When price reaches or falls below the lower reversion zone with bearish momentum, the system generates potential long/buy entry signals indicating oversold conditions within the established range.
Upper Reversion Zone Signals: When price reaches or exceeds the upper reversion zone with bullish momentum, the system generates potential short/sell entry signals indicating overbought conditions.
2. Equilibrium Line Analysis and Momentum Exhaustion
Equilibrium Breaks: The dynamic equilibrium line serves as a momentum bias indicator within the channel. Price crossing above equilibrium suggests shifting to bullish bias, while breaks below indicate bearish bias development within the mean reversion framework.
Momentum Exhaustion Signals: The system identifies momentum exhaustion when price breaks through the equilibrium line opposite to the prevailing momentum direction. Bullish exhaustion occurs when price falls below equilibrium despite positive momentum, while bearish exhaustion happens when price rises above equilibrium during negative momentum periods.
3. Channel Expansion and Breakout Detection
Channel Boundary Breaks: When price breaks above the upper reversion zone or below the lower reversion zone, it signals potential channel expansion or false breakout conditions. These events often precede significant trend changes or range expansion phases.
Range Expansion Alerts: Breaks above the channel high or below the channel low indicate potential breakout from the mean reversion range, suggesting trend continuation or new directional movement beyond the established boundaries.
🟢 Pro Tips for Trading and Investing
→ Strategic DCA Optimization: Use the lower reversion zone as primary accumulation levels for dollar cost averaging strategies. When price reaches oversold conditions with bearish momentum exhaustion signals, it often represents optimal entry points for systematic investment programs, allowing investors to accumulate positions at statistically favorable price levels within the established range.
→ DCA Pause and Acceleration Signals : Monitor equilibrium line breaks to adjust DCA frequency and amounts. When price consistently trades below equilibrium with momentum exhaustion signals, consider accelerating DCA intervals or increasing investment amounts. Conversely, when price reaches upper reversion zones, consider pausing or reducing DCA activity until more favorable conditions return.
→ Momentum Divergence Detection: Watch for divergences between price action and momentum readings within the channel. When price makes new lows but momentum shows improvement, or price makes new highs with deteriorating momentum, these signal high-probability mean reversion setups ideal for contrarian investment approaches.
→ Alert-Based Systematic Investing/Trading: Utilize the comprehensive alert system for automated DCA triggers. Set up alerts for lower reversion zone touches combined with momentum exhaustion signals to create systematic entry points that remove emotional decision-making from long-term investment strategies, particularly effective for volatile assets where timing improvements can significantly impact overall returns.
Machine Learning-Inspired Supply & Demand Zones [AlgoPoint]This indicator is a Smart Supply & Demand Zone tool, developed with principles inspired by Machine Learning (ML). It intelligently filters out market noise, allowing you to focus only on the most significant zones where institutional order flow is likely present.
💡 How It Works: Why Is This Indicator "Smart"?
Unlike traditional indicators that only measure simple price movements, this script uses an algorithm that asks the same critical questions an experienced market analyst would to qualify a zone:
- 1. Price Imbalance: How fast and aggressively did the price leave the zone? Our algorithm measures the body size of the "departure candle" relative to the current market volatility (ATR). A zone is only considered if it was formed by an explosive move that is statistically significant, indicating a major imbalance between buyers and sellers.
- 2. Volume Confirmation: Did the "smart money" participate in this move? The script checks if the volume on the departure candle was significantly higher than the recent average volume. A spike in volume confirms that the move was backed by institutional interest, adding strength and validity to the zone.
- 3. Valid Pivot Structure: Did the zone originate from a meaningful swing high or low? The algorithm first identifies a valid pivot structure, ensuring that zones are not drawn from insignificant or random price fluctuations.
Only when a potential zone passes these three critical tests—our "quality filter"—is it drawn on your chart.
🚀 Features & How to Use
Using the indicator is straightforward. You will see two primary types of boxes on your chart:
* 🟥 Red Box (Supply Zone): An area of potential resistance where selling pressure is likely to be strong. Look for potential shorting opportunities as the price approaches this zone.
* 🟩 Green Box (Demand Zone): An area of potential support where buying pressure is likely to be strong. Look for potential long opportunities as the price pulls back into this zone.
Dynamic Zone Management
This indicator is not static; it lives and breathes with the market:
- Fresh Zone: A newly formed zone appears in its full, vibrant color. These are the highest-probability zones as they have not yet been re-tested.
- Broken / Flipped Zone: You have full control over what happens when a zone is broken! In the settings, you can choose:
- Delete Zone: The zone will be removed completely when the price closes through it.
- Show as Broken (Flip): When broken, the zone will turn gray, stop extending, and remain on your chart. This is extremely useful for identifying Support/Resistance Flips, where a broken demand zone becomes new resistance, or a broken supply zone becomes new support.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
Fine-tune the indicator to match your personal trading style via the settings menu:
- Breakout Behavior: The most powerful feature. Choose between Delete Zone and Show as Broken (Flip) to customize your chart.
- Zone Finding Logic: Control the indicator's sensitivity.
- Selective: Requires both strong imbalance and high volume. Finds fewer, but higher-quality, zones.
- Moderate: Requires either strong imbalance or high volume. Finds more potential zones.
- Sensitivity Settings: Adjust the ATR Multiplier and Volume Multiplier to make the criteria for a "strong" zone stricter or looser.
Wick Pressure Zones [BigBeluga]
The Wick Pressure Zones indicator highlights areas where extreme wick activity occurred, signaling strong buy or sell pressure. By measuring unusually long upper or lower wicks and mapping them into gradient volume zones , the tool helps traders identify levels where liquidity was absorbed, leaving behind footprints of supply and demand imbalances. These zones often act as support, resistance, or liquidity sweep magnets .
🔵 CONCEPTS
Extreme Wicks : Large upper or lower shadows indicate aggressive rejection — upper wicks suggest selling pressure, lower wicks suggest buying pressure.
Volumatic Gradient Zones : From each detected wick, the indicator projects a layered gradient zone, proportional to the wick’s size, showing where most pressure occurred.
Liquidity Footprints : These zones mark levels where significant buy/sell volume was executed, often becoming reaction points on future retests.
Automatic Expiration : Zones persist until price decisively trades through them, after which they are cleared to keep the chart clean.
🔵 FEATURES
Automatic Wick Detection : Identifies extreme upper and lower wick events using percentile filtering and Realative Strength Index.
Gradient Zone Visualization : Builds a 10-layer zone from the wick top/bottom, shading intensity according to pressure strength.
Volume Labels : Each zone is annotated with the bar’s volume at the origin point for added context.
Dynamic Zone Extension : Zones extend to the right as long as they remain relevant; once price closes through them, they are removed.
Support & Resistance Mapping : Upper wick zones (red) behave like supply/resistance, lower wick zones (green) like demand/support.
Clutter Control : Limits the number of active zones (default 10) to keep charts responsive.
Background Highlighting : Optional background shading when new wick zones appear (red for sell, green for buy).
🔵 HOW TO USE
Look for Upper Wick Zones (red) : Indicate strong selling pressure; watch for resistance, reversals, or liquidity sweeps above.
Look for Lower Wick Zones (green) : Indicate strong buying pressure; watch for support or liquidity sweeps below.
Trade Retests : When price returns to a zone, expect a reaction (bounce or rejection) due to leftover liquidity.
Combine with Context : Align wick pressure zones with HTF support/resistance, order blocks, or volume profile for stronger signals.
Use Volume Labels : High-volume wicks indicate more significant liquidity events, making the zone more likely to act as a strong reaction point.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Wick Pressure Zones is a powerful way to visualize hidden liquidity and aggressive rejections. By mapping extreme wick events into dynamic, volume-annotated zones, it shows traders where the market absorbed heavy buy/sell pressure. These levels frequently act as magnets or turning points, making them valuable for timing entries, stop placement, or fade strategies.
Smart Money Footprint & Cost Basis Engine [AlgoPoint]Smart Money Footprint & Cost Basis Engine
This indicator is a comprehensive market analysis tool designed to identify the "footprints" of Smart Money (institutions, whales) and pinpoint high-probability reaction zones. Instead of relying on lagging averages, this engine analyzes the very structure of the market to find where large players have shown their hand.
How It Works: The Core Logic
The indicator operates on a multi-stage confirmation process to identify and validate Smart Money zones:
Smart Money Detection (The Trigger): The engine first scans the chart for signs of intense, urgent buying or selling. It does this by identifying Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) created by large, high-volume Displacement Candles. This is our initial Point of Interest (POI).
Cost Basis Calculation (The Average Price): Once a potential Smart Money move is detected, the indicator calculates the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) for that specific move. This gives us a highly accurate estimate of the average price at which the large players entered their positions.
Historical Confirmation (The "Memory"): This is the indicator's most unique feature. It checks its historical database to see if a similar Smart Money move (in the same direction) has occurred in the same price area in the past. If a match is found, the zone's significance is confirmed.
Verified Cost Basis Zone (The Final Output): A zone that passes all the above checks is drawn on the chart as a high-probability Verified Cost Basis Zone. These are the "memory zones" where the market is likely to react upon a re-visit.
How to Use This Indicator
Cost Basis Zones (The Boxes):
Green Boxes: Bullish zones where Smart Money likely accumulated positions. When the price returns here, a BUY reaction is expected.
Red Boxes: Bearish zones where Smart Money likely distributed positions. When the price returns here, a SELL reaction is expected.
Zone Strength (★★★): Each zone is created with a star rating. More stars indicate a higher-confidence zone (based on factors like volume intensity and historical confirmation).
BUY/SELL Signals: A signal is only generated when the price enters a zone AND the confirmation filters (if enabled in the settings) are passed.
Zone Statuses:
Green/Red: Active and waiting to be tested.
Gray: The zone has been tested, and a signal was produced.
Dark Gray (Invalidated): The zone was broken decisively and is no longer considered valid support/resistance.
Key Settings
Signal Accuracy Filters: You can enable/disable three powerful filters to balance signal quantity and quality:
Momentum Confirmation (Stoch): Waits for momentum to align with the zone's direction.
Candlestick Confirmation (Engulfing): Waits for a strong reversal candle inside the zone.
Lower Timeframe MSS Confirmation: The most advanced filter; waits for a trend shift on a lower timeframe before giving a signal.
Historical Confirmation:
Require Historical Confirmation: Toggle the "Memory" feature on/off. Turn it off to see all potential SM zones.
Tolerance Calculation Method: Choose between a dynamic ATR Multiplier (recommended for all-around use) or a fixed Percentage to define the zone size.
