Cumulative Volume Delta (HA Option)# **📘 Ultimate Guide to Trading With CVD Heikin Ashi (CVD+)**
## **🔍 What This Indicator Shows**
This tool plots **Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)** as candlesticks—optionally transformed into **Heikin Ashi CVD candles**.
Instead of price, each candle represents the *battle between buyers and sellers* within your chosen timeframe.
**Volume Delta = Buying Volume – Selling Volume**
CVD takes all deltas and stacks them cumulatively, showing who is controlling the auction *over time*.
With Heikin Ashi smoothing layered on top, trend detection becomes cleaner, letting you see the “true pressure” behind price moves.
---
# **💡 Why CVD Is a Game Changer**
Most traders only see price.
Serious traders watch **pressure**.
CVD exposes what price hides:
* Absorption
* Hidden accumulation
* Seller exhaustion
* Fake breakouts
* True reversals
* Momentum strength / weakness
* Smart money footprint
When combined with Heikin-Ashi smoothing, you get delta trends with way less noise and fewer fake flips.
---
# **📈 How to Actually Use It (The Edge)**
## **1. Spot True Trend vs. Fake Trend**
If **price goes up** but **CVD goes down**, that’s:
* Passive sellers absorbing
* A weak rally
* High probability of reversal
If **price pulls back** but **CVD keeps rising**, that’s:
* Secret accumulation
* A continuation setup
* Great dip-buy opportunity
**Rule of thumb:**
🔹 *Follow the CVD trend, not the price noise.*
---
## **2. Catch Reversals Early**
Watch for:
### **🔻 Bearish Reversal Signals**
* CVD makes a **lower high**
* Heikin Ashi CVD prints **red bodies with rising upper shadows**
* Price makes one final push up on low delta
This is classic distribution → the drop usually follows fast.
### **🔹 Bullish Reversal Signals**
* CVD forms a **higher low**
* HA CVD flips from red to green with full bodies
* Price still looks weak = bottom forming
This is exactly how pros catch bottoms early.
---
## **3. Identify Absorption Levels**
If price hits a level multiple times but CVD keeps climbing (or falling), that level is being defended.
Example:
* Price stalls at support
* CVD keeps rising
= **Buyers absorbing sells → high-probability bounce**
Opposite works for resistance.
---
## **4. Validate Breakouts**
A breakout with *weak or negative CVD* is usually a trap.
A breakout with **strong, rising HA CVD** is real.
If CVD diverges from the breakout direction → fade it.
If CVD confirms → ride it.
---
## **5. Use Heikin Ashi to Stay in Trends**
HA smoothing removes the nasty chop of raw delta data.
Look for:
* Consecutive **full-body teal candles = strong buying wave**
* Consecutive **full-body red candles = strong selling wave**
* Small-bodied candles after a trend = momentum dying
This keeps you in winners longer and cuts losers faster.
---
# **🎯 Practical Trading Playbook**
### **A) Long Setup**
1. Price pullback into support
2. CVD stays bullish or makes a higher low
3. HA CVD flips green or prints a strong body
4. Enter long
5. Stop under CVD structural low
### **B) Short Setup**
1. Price pushes into resistance
2. CVD forms bearish divergence
3. HA CVD prints red bodies
4. Enter short
5. Stop above CVD swing high
### **C) Chop Filter**
No clear HA CVD trend = avoid trading → stop donating money to the market.
---
# **🧠 Tips for Mastery**
* Use lower timeframe delta (1m–5m) for scalping entries
* Use a higher anchor timeframe (1D) to define direction
* When price trends but CVD is flat → expect a fakeout
* When CVD trends but price is flat → expect a breakout
* Trade WITH delta, fade AGAINST delta
---
# **⚠️ Important Notes**
* Crypto = full tick-by-tick volume → CVD is extremely accurate
* Stocks = depends on your broker/data vendor
* Futures = best signal-to-noise ratio
* If your symbol has no volume → indicator will warn you
---
# **📥 Recommended Settings**
* **Anchor timeframe**: 1D or 4H
* **Lower timeframe**: 1m, 3m, or 5m
* **Heikin Ashi**: ON for trend filtering, OFF for raw delta
---
# **🔥 Final Word**
Price can lie.
Delta usually doesn’t.
CVD + Heikin Ashi gives you the closest thing to reading the market’s heartbeat in real time.
Use it to confirm breakouts, detect reversals early, identify real trend strength, and avoid getting caught in manipulation.
If you learn to read CVD well…
you stop trading price, and start trading the **intent** behind the price.

DX Supply and Demand Pro💎 DX Supply and Demand Pro: Adaptive Line and Zone Mastery
The DX Supply and Demand Pro indicator is an advanced, hybrid trading tool engineered for precision and context. It seamlessly integrates the proprietary Arbitor Line with dynamic, volume-weighted Supply and Demand Zones. This unique combination provides traders with a clear, adaptive view of both the current trend bias and critical structural price levels.
⚠️ Critical Trading Disclaimer 🛑
Trading is highly speculative and carries a substantial risk of loss. The use of this indicator does not guarantee profits, and you may lose more than your initial capital. Before using this tool in a live trading environment, you must test its performance thoroughly using paper trading or a simulated account.
Why Traders Need the DX S&D Pro 🎯
Proprietary Adaptive Intelligence: The Arbitor Line is a calculated price anchor derived from a complex, undisclosed combination of multiple market factors and proprietary equations. It automatically adjusts its sensitivity based on the chart's timeframe, effectively filtering out market noise to present an accurate, weighted average of the prevailing market bias.
Structural Clarity: It detects high-probability Supply and Demand Zones using pivot points, filtering them for strength based on volume, ATR (volatility), and High Volume Node (HVN) confirmation from a higher timeframe.
Actionable Confluence: The indicator combines dynamic trend bias (the Arbitor Line) with static structural levels (S&D Zones). This allows traders to identify high-conviction setups where the structural turning point is confirmed by the real-time bias of the Arbitor Line.
Feedback & Accountability 🤝
This indicator is provided "as is" and its performance is based on the parameters set by the user. Any suggestions or comments from users regarding performance, bugs, or feature requests should be directed to the developer here or X @Falcondxeye. The developer assumes no liability for trading losses incurred using this tool.
📚 How to Use DX Supply and Demand Pro
This indicator is best used as a confluence tool, where the Arbitor Line confirms the strength and direction of the setup identified by the Supply/Demand Zones.
Trading Confluence with the Arbitor Line:
Scenario: Buy Zone Rejection 🟢
Condition: Price touches a Demand Zone.
Confluence: The Arbitor Line is Above the zone.
Interpretation: Indicates a Bullish Bias is confirming the structural support. Focus on long entries.
Scenario: Sell Zone Rejection 🔴
Condition: Price touches a Supply Zone.
Confluence: The Arbitor Line is Below the zone.
Interpretation: Indicates a Bearish Bias is confirming the structural resistance. Focus on short entries.
Scenario: Momentum Break ⚡
Condition: Price Closes strongly beyond a zone.
Confluence: The Arbitor Line is Aligned with the Break.
Interpretation: Confirms market momentum and suggests the structural break is valid for directional continuation.
⚙️ Key Settings and Optimization Guide 🔧
Arbitor Line Settings (Trend Bias):
VWAP Weight: (Default: 0.33) — The weight applied to a key volume component within the proprietary Arbitor calculation.
Suggestion for High Volatility/Volume: Increase to 0.40 to emphasize volume's influence.
Suggestion for Clean Trends: Decrease to 0.25 to allow momentum components to dictate the line's position.
Supply & Demand Zone Settings (Structural Levels)
HVN Volume TF: (Default: D - Daily) — Crucial Context Setter. The higher timeframe used to look for High Volume Nodes (HVNs) to confirm zone strength.
For Scalping (1m-15m): Use 1H or 4H for validation.
For Day Trading (30m-1H): Use 4H or D. D is the recommended default.
For Swing Trading (4H-Daily): Use W (Weekly).
HVN Bonus %: (Default: 20) — The strength boost applied to a zone if it aligns with an HVN.
Max Supply/Demand Zones: (Default: 2) — Limits the number of active, displayed zones to keep the chart clean.
Retest Bonus %: (Default: 10) — Boosts a zone's strength score each time it is retested (up to max retests).
Time Decay Rate %: (Default: 1) — Reduces a zone's strength for every 10 bars it remains unbroken (stale zones weaken).
Flip Zone on Break: (Default: True) — Turns a broken Demand Zone into a Supply Zone (and vice versa), reflecting structural flip concepts.
💡 Suggestions for Power Users 🚀
Look for Flipped Zones: Pay attention to zones that have been broken and flipped (indicated by yellow text in the labels). Flipped zones that confirm the Arbitor direction often lead to high-momentum continuation moves.
Confirm HVN Strength: Always prioritize trading zones with a high strength score (e.g., 90% or higher), as this indicates maximum confluence of Volume, Volatility, and the HVN Bonus.
Adaptive Timeframes: Use the indicator on multiple timeframes to ensure the Arbitor bias aligns with your trade direction. If the Arbitor is bullish on both the 5-minute and the 1-hour chart, the conviction is exceptionally high.
Final Note: The DX S&D Pro combines the best of trend following with the best of structural trading. It's so good, we call it the Arbitor because it settles the arguments between buyers and sellers... until the next bar, of course! 😉

📚 كيفية استخدام مؤشر DX Supply and Demand Pro
يُفضل استخدام هذا المؤشر كأداة تضافر، حيث يؤكد خط Arbitor قوة واتجاه الإعداد المحدد بواسطة مناطق العرض والطلب.
تضافر التداول مع خط Arbitor:
السيناريو: ارتداد منطقة الشراء 🟢
الحالة: يلامس السعر منطقة الطلب (Demand Zone).
التضافر: يقع خط Arbitor فوق المنطقة.
التفسير: يشير إلى أن انحياز صعودي (Bullish Bias) يؤكد الدعم الهيكلي. التركيز على صفقات الشراء (Long Entries).
السيناريو: ارتداد منطقة البيع 🔴
الحالة: يلامس السعر منطقة العرض (Supply Zone).
التضافر: يقع خط Arbitor أسفل المنطقة.
التفسير: يشير إلى أن انحياز هبوطي (Bearish Bias) يؤكد المقاومة الهيكلية. التركيز على صفقات البيع (Short Entries).
السيناريو: كسر الزخم ⚡
الحالة: يُغلق السعر بقوة خارج المنطقة.
التضافر: يتماشى خط Arbitor مع الكسر.
التفسير: يؤكد زخم السوق ويشير إلى أن الكسر الهيكلي صالح للاستمرار الاتجاهي.
⚙️ الإعدادات الرئيسية ودليل التحسين 🔧
إعدادات خط Arbitor (انحياز الاتجاه)
VWAP Weight (وزن VWAP): (افتراضي: 0.33) — الوزن المطبق على مكون حجم رئيسي ضمن حساب Arbitor الخاص بنا.
اقتراح للتقلب/الحجم العالي: زيادة إلى 0.40 للتأكيد على تأثير الحجم.
اقتراح للاتجاهات النظيفة: تقليل إلى 0.25 للسماح لمكونات الزخم بتحديد موقع الخط بشكل أقوى.
إعدادات مناطق العرض والطلب (المستويات الهيكلية)
HVN Volume TF (الإطار الزمني لحجم HVN): (افتراضي: D - يومي) — مُحدِد السياق الحاسم. الإطار الزمني الأعلى المستخدم للبحث عن عقد الحجم العالية (HVNs) لتأكيد قوة المنطقة.
للمضاربة اللحظية (1د-15د): استخدم 1س أو 4س للتحقق.
للتداول اليومي (30د-1س): استخدم 4س أو D. D هو الإعداد الافتراضي الموصى به.
للتداول المتأرجح (4س-يومي): استخدم W (أسبوعي).
HVN Bonus % (مكافأة HVN %): (افتراضي: 20) — تعزيز القوة المطبق على المنطقة إذا كانت تتماشى مع عقدة HVN.
Max Supply/Demand Zones (الحد الأقصى لمناطق العرض/الطلب): (افتراضي: 2) — يحد من عدد المناطق النشطة المعروضة للحفاظ على نظافة الرسم البياني.
Retest Bonus % (مكافأة إعادة الاختبار %): (افتراضي: 10) — يعزز درجة قوة المنطقة في كل مرة يتم فيها إعادة اختبارها (حتى الحد الأقصى لإعادة الاختبارات).
Time Decay Rate % (معدل الاضمحلال الزمني %): (افتراضي: 1) — يقلل من قوة المنطقة لكل 10 شمعات تبقى فيها دون كسر (المناطق القديمة تضعف).
Flip Zone on Break (قلب المنطقة عند الكسر): (افتراضي: True - صحيح) — يحول منطقة الطلب المكسورة إلى منطقة عرض (والعكس صحيح)، مما يعكس مفاهيم التحول الهيكلي.
💡 اقتراحات للمستخدمين المتقدمين 🚀
ابحث عن المناطق المقلوبة (Flipped Zones): انتبه بشكل خاص إلى المناطق التي تم كسرها وقلبها (يشار إليها بنص أصفر في التسميات). غالبًا ما تؤدي المناطق المقلوبة التي تؤكد اتجاه Arbitor إلى تحركات استمرارية ذات زخم عالٍ.
تأكيد قوة HVN: أعطِ الأولوية دائمًا لتداول المناطق ذات درجة القوة العالية (على سبيل المثال، 90% أو أعلى)، حيث يشير هذا إلى أقصى درجات التضافر بين الحجم والتقلب ومكافأة HVN.
الأطر الزمنية التكيفية: استخدم المؤشر على أطر زمنية متعددة للتأكد من توافق انحياز Arbitor مع اتجاه تداولك. إذا كان Arbitor صعوديًا على كل من الرسم البياني 5 دقائق والساعة الواحدة، تكون القناعة عالية بشكل استثنائي.
ملاحظة أخيرة: يجمع مؤشر DX S&D Pro أفضل ما في تتبع الاتجاه مع أفضل ما في التداول الهيكلي. إنه جيد جدًا، لدرجة أننا نطلق عليه اسم Arbitor لأنه يحسم الجدل بين المشترين والبائعين... حتى الشمعة التالية بالطبع! 😉

Mirror Blocks: StrategyMirror Blocks is an educational structural-wave model built around a unique concept:
the interaction of mirrored weighted moving averages (“blocks”) that reflect shifts in market structure as price transitions between layered symmetry zones.
Rather than attempting to “predict” markets, the Mirror Blocks framework visualizes how price behaves when it expands away from, contracts toward, or flips across stacked WMA structures. These mirrored layers form a wave-like block system that highlights transitional zones in a clean, mechanical way.
This strategy version allows you to study how these structural transitions behave in different environments and on different timeframes.
The goal is understanding wave structure, not generating signals.
How It Works
Mirror Blocks builds three mirrored layers:
Top Block (Structural High Symmetry)
Base Block (Neutral Wave)
Bottom Block (Structural Low Symmetry)
The relative position of these blocks — and how price interacts with them — helps visualize:
Compression and expansion
Reversal zones
Wave stability
Momentum transitions
Structure flips
A structure is considered bullish-stack aligned when:
Top > Base > Bottom
and bearish-stack aligned when:
Bottom > Base > Top
These formations create the core of the Mirror Blocks wave engine.
What the Strategy Version Adds
This version includes:
Long Only, Short Only, or Long & Short modes
Adjustable symmetry distance (Mirror Distance)
Configurable WMA smoothing length
Optional trend filter using fast/slow MA comparison
ENTER / EXIT / LONG / SHORT labels for structural transitions
Fixed stop-loss controls for research
A clean, transparent structure with no hidden components
It is optimized for educational chart study, not automated signals.
Intended Purpose
Mirror Blocks is meant to help traders:
Study structural transitions
Understand symmetry-based wave models
Explore how price interacts with mirrored layers
Examine reversals and expansions from a mechanical perspective
Conduct long and short backtesting for research
Develop a deeper sense of market rhythm
This is not a prediction model.
It is a visual and structural framework for understanding movement.
Backtesting Disclaimer
Backtest results can vary depending on:
Slippage settings
Commission settings
Timeframe
Asset volatility
Structural sensitivity parameters
Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Dynamic Elliott Wave By Lucky-CBTIndicator overview
Dynamic Elliott Wave v5 detects and visually labels single-degree Elliott impulse (1–5) and corrective (A–B–C) structures using robust pivot detection and optional Fibonacci validation. It’s designed as a mechanical, configurable helper to identify clear wave structures across timeframes and instruments — useful as a structural guide for analysis and strategy development.
Key features
Mechanical pivot detection (zigzag-style) evaluated on confirmed bars for stability
Automatic detection and persistent drawing of 1–5 impulse and A–B–C corrective structures
Optional Fibonacci-based validation for Wave 2 / Wave 4 retracements with tolerance control
Configurable pivot lookback and minimum move threshold to reduce noise on different timeframes
Visuals: colored lines and labels for impulses (1–5) and corrections (A–B–C)
Lightweight memory use with bounded pivot storage and safe redraw logic
How it works (short)
Detects pivot highs/lows using ta.highestbars / ta.lowestbars over a user-set lookback
Builds candidate 5-pivot sequences and validates alternation, magnitude, and optional Fibonacci relationships
When a valid impulse is found the script stores and draws the 1–5 chain; if a following 3-pivot corrective is found it stores and draws A–B–C
Visuals persist until a new validated structure replaces them so charts remain readable
Inputs and recommended settings
Pivot lookback (bars): controls sensitivity. Lower for faster markets / lower TF (e.g., 3–7), higher for slow markets / higher TF (e.g., 10–30).
Min move size (%): filters tiny swings. Start ~0.5% for volatile symbols, 0.1–0.3% for large-cap equities on daily.
Use Fibonacci checks: on/off. Turn on to enforce common retrace rules; turn off if you prefer looser mechanical counts.
Fibonacci tolerance: widen for noisy markets, tighten for strict validation.
Show lines / Show labels: toggle visuals to reduce clutter.
Practical notes and limitations
Elliott Wave counting remains partly subjective; this script provides a consistent mechanical count, but it will not match every manual analysis. Use as a guide, not a final trading signal.
The script detects single-degree structures only. For nested multi-degree analysis, consider adding recursive detection layers or complementing with manual degree assignment.
Requires sufficient chart history (max_bars_back) to retain older pivots when reviewing long-term structures. Increase max_bars_back if needed.
Test and tune pivot_len and min_move_pct for your instrument and timeframe before relying on counts in live trading.
Change log (high level)
v1.0 — Initial release: mechanical pivot detection, impulse 1–5 and corrective A–B–C detection, persistent visuals, Fibonacci validation.
Future: planned options for ATR-based pivots, multi-degree nesting, manual clear/aging controls, and degree coloring.

Rasta Long/Short — StrategyThe Rasta Long/Short Strategy is a visual and educational framework designed to help traders study momentum shifts that appear when a fast EMA interacts with a slower smoothed baseline.
It is not a signal service. Instead, it is a research tool that helps you observe transitions, structure, and behavior across different market conditions and smoothing contexts.
The script plots:
A primary EMA line (fast reaction wave).
A Smoothed line (your chosen smoothing method).
Color-coded fog regions showing directional bias.
Optional DNA rung connections between the two lines for structural comparison.
Together, these allow a deeper study of how momentum pushes, volatility compression, expansions, and drift emerge around fast/slow EMA interactions.
✦ Core Idea
The Rasta Long/Short mechanism studies how price behaves when the fast EMA crosses above or below a smoothed anchor.
Rather than predicting price, it reveals where transitions occur across different structures, timeframes, and smoothing techniques.
The Long/Short logic simply highlights flips in directional structure.
It is not intended for real-time signals or automated execution; it is intended for understanding market movement.
✦ Smoothing Types (Explained)
The strategy allows experimenting with several smoothing families to observe how they transform the fast EMA:
SMA (Simple Moving Average)
Averaged, slower response. Good for stability comparisons.
EMA (Exponential)
Faster reaction, more responsive, smoother behavior during momentum.
RMA (Wilder’s)
Used in RSI calculations; steady, well-balanced response.
WMA (Weighted)
More weight to recent bars; bridges SMA and EMA dynamics.
None
Raw EMA vs EMA interaction with no secondary smoothing.
Each smoothing type provides unique structural information and can lead to different interpretations.
✦ Modes of Study
Designed for multi-timeframe research:
1H / 4H — Momentum flow mapping and structural identification.
Daily / Weekly — Higher-timeframe rotations, macro structure transitions.
1–15m — Microstructure studies, noise vs trend emergence.
Use the built-in Strategy Tester to explore entry/exit context, but treat results as research, not predictive performance.
✦ Components (Visual Study Tools)
EMA Line (Fast)
Primary reactive wave. Shows fast directional shifts.
Smoothed Line (Slow)
Trend baseline / reference structure.
Fog Region
Highlights fast-vs-smoothed directional alignment.
DNA Rungs (Optional)
Structural “bridges” showing the exact relationship between waves on each bar.
Useful for studying separation, compression, and expansions.
✦ Educational Insights
This strategy helps illuminate:
How fast and slow EMAs interact dynamically.
How structure changes precede trend emergence.
Where volatility compresses before expansion.
How noise, drift, and clean reversals differ.
How different smoothers alter the interpretation of the same price data.
The goal is clarity — not prediction.
✦ How to Use
Apply to any timeframe or instrument.
Enable or disable fog depending on preferred visibility.
Use DNA rungs for close structural comparison.
Observe long/short flips as educational reference points — not signals.
Study transitions visually, then backtest using the Strategy Tester for pattern research.

Elliott Wave + SMC Fusion # Elliott Wave + SMC Fusion
## TITLE:
Elliott Wave + Smart Money Concepts Fusion
---
## SHORT DESCRIPTION:
Automated Elliott Wave pattern detection with Smart Money Concepts confirmation, EWO oscillator integration, and confluence scoring system.
---
## FULL DESCRIPTION:
### 📊 OVERVIEW
This indicator combines three powerful trading methodologies into a unified system:
- **Elliott Wave Theory** - Automated detection of Wave 1-2 impulse patterns
- **Smart Money Concepts (SMC)** - Order Blocks and Fair Value Gaps for institutional confirmation
- **Elliott Wave Oscillator (EWO)** - Momentum-based signal validation
The core concept is to identify high-probability Wave 3 entries by detecting completed Wave 1-2 structures and validating them with SMC and momentum indicators.
---
### 🔧 HOW IT WORKS
**1. Pattern Detection (ZigZag Method)**
- Uses pivot high/low detection to identify swing points
- Validates Wave 2 retracement using Fibonacci ratios (default: 38.2% - 88.6%)
- Requires minimum wave size to filter noise
- Applies confirmation bars to avoid premature signals
**2. Wave Projections**
- Wave 3 target: Fibonacci extension of Wave 1 (default: 1.618)
- Wave 4 retracement: Percentage of Wave 3 (default: 38.2%)
- Wave 5 projection: Extension of Wave 1 from Wave 4
**3. Smart Money Validation**
- **Order Blocks**: Identifies last opposing candle before breakout (institutional footprint)
- **Fair Value Gaps**: Detects price imbalances for potential support/resistance
**4. EWO Confirmation**
- Calculates momentum: (EMA5 / EMA34 - 1) × 100
- Signal line crossovers confirm trend direction
- Strong signals occur at extremes (< -13 or > 13 threshold)
**5. Confluence Scoring (0-100%)**
Points awarded for:
- Fibonacci quality of Wave 2 retracement (10-30 pts)
- Order Block presence (15 pts)
- Fair Value Gap presence (10 pts)
- Volume confirmation (10-15 pts)
- Trend alignment with EMA50 (10 pts)
- EWO confirmation (10-20 pts)
---
### 🎯 UNIQUE FEATURES
**Pattern Locking System**
- Once a valid pattern is detected, it locks until:
- Pattern invalidates (price breaks Wave 0)
- Pattern completes (Wave 5 reached)
- Auto-timeout (configurable bars)
- Prevents rapid signal flipping and false alerts
**Signal Stability Controls**
- Adjustable cooldown between signals (default: 20 bars)
- Minimum bar distance between wave points
- Direction change requirement option
- Confirmation bars after Wave 2 formation
**Visual Wave Tracking**
- Solid lines for impulse waves (0→1, 2→3, 4→5)
- Dashed lines for corrective waves (1→2, 3→4)
- Numbered labels on each wave point
- Real-time projection lines to targets
**Comprehensive Dashboard**
- Current wave status and lock state
- Pattern grade (A+ to D based on confluence)
- Projected vs actual wave levels (✓ when completed)
- SMC confirmation status
- Risk/Reward ratio calculation
- EWO trend direction
---
### 📈 TRADING APPLICATION
**Entry Strategy**
- Wait for Wave 1-2 pattern detection (diamond signal)
- Check confluence score (>65% = higher probability)
- Verify EWO alignment with pattern direction
- Enter after 30% retracement of Wave 2 (customizable)
**Risk Management**
- Stop Loss: Below Wave 0 (with buffer)
- Take Profit 1: Wave 3 projection
- Take Profit 2: Wave 5 projection
- R:R displayed in dashboard
**Invalidation Rules**
- Price breaks below Wave 0 (bullish) or above (bearish)
- Wave 2 level violated before Wave 3 forms
- Pattern timeout exceeded

ChanLun Pro｜HL标准化与分形 (v6) — 主图ChanLun Pro
There are multiple automatic drawing modes for the candlestick pattern in Chan Theory, including the sub-high/sub-low mode and the high/low mode.
Slope Rank ReversalThis tool is designed to solve the fundamental problem of "buying low and selling high" by providing objective entry/exit signals based on momentum extremes and inflection points.
The System employs three core components:
Trend Detection (PSAR): The Parabolic SAR is used as a filter to confirm that a trend reversal or transition is currently underway, isolating actionable trade setups.
Dynamic Momentum Ranking: The indicator continuously measures the slope of the price action. This slope is then ranked against historical data to objectively identify when an asset is in an extreme state (overbought or oversold).
Signal Generation (Inflection Points):
Oversold/Buy: A 🟢 Green X is generated only when the slope ranking indicates the market is steeply negative (oversold), and the slope value begins to tick upwards (the inflection point), signaling potential mean reversion.
Overbought/Sell: A 🔴 Red X is generated only when the slope ranking indicates the market is steeply positive (overbought), and the slope value begins to tick downwards, signaling momentum exhaustion.
The core philosophy is simple: Enter only when the market is exhausted and has started to turn.
ECG PRICE - mauricioofsousa📉 ECG PRICE – The Price Electrocardiogram
(explained for traders, scientists, and complete beginners)
🔍 1. WHAT IS THE ECG PRICE?
The ECG PRICE protocol is a market-reading system based on the RSI, but with a surgical twist:
👉 You don’t just calculate RSI from price.
👉 You adjust the price using the RSI, and then calculate RSI over this adjusted price.
This creates a filtered, amplified signal that behaves like a heart monitor for price, detecting micro-impulses and subtle market movements long before they show up in the standard RSI.
🧬 2. CORE IDEA
Just like a real ECG amplifies and reveals electrical rhythms hidden inside the heartbeat,
the ECG PRICE amplifies micro-deformations hidden inside the price’s momentum.
It works in three stages:
Compute the regular RSI
Use the RSI to adjust the price (creating an electrocardiographic price)
Compute a second RSI over this modified price
The result is a meta-derived oscillator—more sensitive, more precise, and better at detecting structural changes.
🧩 3. TECHNICAL BREAKDOWN
3.1. First RSI (classic)
The script calculates:
average gains
average losses
relative strength (RS)
and then the standard 0–100 RSI
This is the “normal heart rate monitor” everyone uses.
3.2. Creating the “Adjusted Price”
adjustedPrice = close * (rsi / 100)
This means:
➡️ When RSI is high (strong buying momentum), price is amplified.
➡️ When RSI is low (strong selling momentum), price is compressed.
This converts raw price into a bio-electrical signal, where the price itself is modulated by its own internal momentum.
It’s the financial equivalent of ECG gain adjustment.
3.3. RSI of the Adjusted Price
Now the script calculates a new RSI from this modified price.
That is the actual ECG PRICE.
This second-order oscillator becomes extremely sensitive to:
micro-momentum shifts
early trend fading
volatility shocks
micro-divergences
institutional pressure waves
It reads the electrical pattern behind the price rather than the superficial movement.
🟩🟥 4. Diagnostic Lines of the Protocol
35 (green dotted)
Pre-oversold fatigue zone.
65 (red dotted)
Pre-overbought exhaustion zone.
30 (white solid)
Classic oversold.
70 (white solid)
Classic overbought.
Together they create two diagnostic corridors:
1. Medical corridor (30–70):
Standard RSI clinical range.
2. Electrical corridor (35–65):
The ECG-sensitive zone where micro-shifts appear first.
🧠 5. In Engineering Language (MGO style)
The ECG PRICE is essentially:
A nonlinear second-order oscillator where the RSI feeds back into price, creating a recursive momentum-modulated signal.
It functions like a:
bioinformational modulator
feedback-driven wave processor
impulse amplifier
micro-PID sensitivity enhancer
Very similar to the informational-wave transformations inside the MGO pipeline.
👨⚕️📉 6. Explained for a Total Beginner
Imagine the price is a heart.
The normal RSI shows if the heart is beating fast or slow.
But the ECG PRICE takes that heartbeat…
feeds it back into the heart…
and then measures the new heartbeat.
This creates a much more sensitive exam that detects problems before the normal test would.
💡 7. What It Gives You in Practice
earlier reversal signals
better trend-fatigue detection
clearer micro-divergences
a clean RSI with reduced noise
a smoother momentum curve
advanced behavioral readings before breakouts
It’s an upgrade.
A second-layer RSI that “hears” the inner electrical impulses of price.
Gold 1&5 Min Trading Strategy [TradingFinder] XAU Scalper Signal🔵 Introduction
Scalping in financial markets is based on immediate price reactions and precise analysis of price action behavior. In this trading approach, the trader must identify signals that originate directly from market structure, momentum shifts, candlestick formations, and the position of price relative to key zones.
Supply and demand areas serve as the primary regions of order concentration and form the foundation of scalping analysis, since they provide the most accurate representation of balance or imbalance between buyers and sellers as well as the active flow of liquidity in the market.
In demand zones, price reactions usually begin with the formation of reversal or continuation candlestick patterns. These patterns include structures such as Pin Bar, Engulfing, Doji, Failure, Rejection, and other forms of false breakout behavior, each of which can indicate a potential short term change in direction.
Liquidity plays a central role in these reactions, because price entering a demand zone typically coincides with the absorption of sell side liquidity and the restoration of order flow. This process often leads to rapid movements that are suitable for scalping. Therefore, combining candlestick confirmation with the location of price inside a supply or demand zone is one of the most reliable methods of identifying low risk scalping signals.
Demand zones include several structural variations, each representing a different form of liquidity behavior. One of the most well known examples is the order block, which is the final bearish candle before a strong bullish movement and indicates the presence of unfilled buy side interest.
Another important structure is the Fair Value Gap, which appears when a price void forms across three consecutive candles due to a lack of liquidity during the moment of displacement. The market often returns to this area to restore balance. Imbalance structures also represent one sided pressure in order flow where the market reacts later to correct these inefficiencies.
Breaker structure is another key element in demand analysis. A breaker is formed when an order block is violated and price returns to the same level after collecting liquidity, then continues in the opposite direction. This pattern often appears near liquidity based highs or lows and reflects a shift in the strength of market participants.
Together, order blocks, Fair Value Gaps, imbalances, and breakers form the core of demand analysis in price action and are widely used in precise scalping strategies due to their strong connection with liquidity and the high predictability of price reactions within them.
Bullish Setup :
Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
This strategy is built on price action analysis, market reactions inside supply and demand zones, and confirmation through candlestick patterns. The first step is to identify key areas such as order blocks, Fair Value Gaps, imbalances, or breakers.
After these zones are located, price behavior within them is examined using candlestick structure and momentum direction. Entries are taken only when price reaches a validated zone, a clear sign of liquidity absorption or injection appears, and a confirming candlestick forms inside the zone.
This approach allows the trader to capture fast and precise entries during moments when the market is actively reacting to decision points.
🟣 Long Setup
In the buy setup, a valid demand zone must first be identified. This can be a bullish order block, an unfilled bullish Fair Value Gap, an imbalance at the lower part of structure, or a bullish breaker. When price enters this zone and shows signs of absorbing sell side liquidity, candlestick behavior must be examined.
Formation of reversal signals such as a Pin Bar with a long lower wick, bullish Engulfing, Rejection Candle, or a false breakout of the low, indicates a favorable shift in order flow. After receiving candlestick confirmation, a buy entry is taken within the same zone and the stop level is placed below the liquidity boundary. Targets are typically based on filling gaps, reaching supply zones, or returning to structural means.
🟣 Short Setup
In the sell setup, a valid supply zone must be recognized. This may include a bearish order block, a bearish Fair Value Gap, an imbalance at the upper part of structure, or a bearish breaker. When price enters this zone and liquidity accumulates above nearby highs, the probability of a fast momentum shift increases.
Confirmation occurs when a bearish reversal pattern forms such as Engulfing, Pin Bar with a long upper wick, indecisive Doji followed by rejection, or a false breakout of the high. After confirmation, the sell entry is placed and the stop level is set above the liquidity zone. Targets are selected based on filling lower Fair Value Gaps, reaching demand zones, or returning to structural midpoints.
🔵 Settings
Last Candle in Signal Direction : When On, a signal is issued only if the last candle moves in the direction required by the signal.
Signal in Nearly Zone : When enabled, the signal becomes valid even if the candle is near the zone rather than strictly inside it. When disabled, only signals formed inside the zone are allowed.
Allow Both Side Signals : When On, signals from both sides of the structure can be issued even if a limiting level exists. When disabled, only signals that do not violate the limiting level are allowed.
🔵 Conclusion
Using price action, supply and demand zones, and candlestick confirmation alongside liquidity analysis creates an effective framework for identifying fast market reactions in scalping conditions. Focusing on structures such as order blocks, Fair Value Gaps, imbalances, and breakers allows the trader to recognize shifts in momentum and changes in order flow with greater precision.
In this approach, entries are taken only when price reaches a validated zone, liquidity behavior is observable, and the confirming candle forms at the correct location. This leads to organized, low risk scalping signals that are aligned with the real time behavior of the market.

RSI + ADX + ATR Strength GaugeThis indicator combines Relative Strength Index (RSI), Average Directional Index (ADX), and Average True Range (ATR) into a unified strength gauge that identifies high-quality trending conditions while filtering out choppy, low-volatility markets.
RSI measures momentum and overbought/oversold conditions.
ADX confirms trend strength (not direction), highlighting when price movement has strong follow-through.
ATR captures volatility expansion, filtering out flat, low-range candles where fake signals occur.
When the components diverge or show contraction, the gauge warns of market chop, suggesting it’s better to avoid entries or reduce position size.
Purpose:
To keep you out of sideways markets and confirm entries only when momentum, trend strength, and volatility all agree — reducing whipsaws and improving trade quality.
Tweak to your liking.
Quasimodo Pattern Strategy Back Test [TradingFinder] QM Trading🔵 Introduction
The QM pattern, also known as the Quasimodo pattern, is one of the popular patterns in price action, and it is often used by technical analysts. The QM pattern is used to identify trend reversals and provides a very good risk-to-reward ratio. One of the advantages of the QM pattern is its high frequency and visibility in charts.
Additionally, due to its strength, it is highly profitable, and as mentioned, its risk-to-reward ratio is very good. The QM pattern is highly popular among traders in supply and demand, and traders also use this pattern.
The Price Action QM pattern, like other Price Action patterns, has two types: Bullish QM and Bearish QM patterns. To identify this pattern, you need to be familiar with its types to recognize it.
🔵 Identifying the QM Pattern
🟣 Bullish QM
In the bullish QM pattern, as you can see in the image below, an LL and HH are formed. As you can see, the neckline is marked as a dashed line. When the price reaches this range, it will start its upward movement.
🟣 Bearish QM
The Price Action QM pattern also has a bearish pattern. As you can see in the image below, initially, an HH and LL are formed. The neckline in this image is the dashed line, and when the LL is formed, the price reaches this neckline. However, it cannot pass it, and the downward trend resumes.
🔵 How to Use
The Quasimodo pattern is one of the clearest structures used to identify market reversals. It is built around the concept of a structural break followed by a pullback into an area of trapped liquidity. Instead of relying on lagging indicators, this pattern focuses purely on price action and how the market reacts after exhausting one side of liquidity. When understood correctly, it provides traders with precise entry points at the transition between trend phases.
🟣 Bullish Quasimodo
A bullish Quasimodo forms after a clear downtrend when sellers start losing control. The market continues to make lower lows until a sudden higher high appears, signaling that buyers are entering with strength. Price then pulls back to retest the previous low, creating what is known as the Quasimodo low.
This area often becomes the final trap for sellers before the market shifts upward. A visible rejection or displacement from this zone confirms bullish momentum. Traders usually place entries near this level, stops below the low, and targets at previous highs or the next resistance zone. Combining the setup with demand zones or Fair Value Gaps increases its accuracy.
🟣 Bearish Quasimodo
A bearish Quasimodo forms near the top of an uptrend when buyers begin to lose strength. The market continues to make higher highs until a sudden lower low breaks the bullish structure, showing that selling pressure is entering the market. Price then retraces upward to retest the previous high, forming the Quasimodo high, where breakout buyers are often trapped.
Once rejection appears at this level, it indicates a likely reversal. Traders can enter short near this area, with stop-losses placed above the high and targets near the next support or previous lows. The setup gains more reliability when aligned with supply zones, SMT divergence, or bearish Fair Value Gaps.
🔵 Setting
Pivot Period : You can use this parameter to use your desired period to identify the QM pattern. By default, this parameter is set to the number 5.
Take Profit Mode : You can choose your desired Take Profit in three ways. Based on the logic of the QM strategy, you can select two Take Profit levels, TP1 and TP2. You can also choose your take profit based on the Reward to Risk ratio. You must enter your desired R/R in the Reward to Risk Ratio parameter.
Stop Loss Refine : The loss limit of the QM strategy is based on its logic on the Head pattern. You can refine it using the ATR Refine option to prevent Stop Hunt. You can enter your desired coefficient in the Stop Loss ATR Adjustment Coefficient parameter.
Reward to Risk Ratio : If you set Take Profit Mode to R/R, you must enter your desired R/R here. For example, if your loss limit is 10 pips and you set R/R to 2, your take profit will be reached when the price is 20 pips away from your entry point.
Stop Loss ATR Adjustment Coefficient : If you set Stop Loss Refine to ATR Refine, you must adjust your loss limit coefficient here. For example, if your buy position's loss limit is at the price of 1000, and your ATR is 10, if you set Stop Loss ATR Adjustment Coefficient to 2, your loss limit will be at the price of 980.
Entry Level Validity : Determines how long the Entry level remains valid. The higher the level, the longer the entry level will remain valid. By default it is 2 and it can be set between 2 and 15.

RastaRasta — Educational Strategy (Pine v5)
Momentum · Smoothing · Trend Study
Overview
The Rasta Strategy is a visual and educational framework designed to help traders study momentum transitions using the interaction between a fast-reacting EMA line and a slower smoothed reference line.
It is not a signal generator or profit system; it’s a learning tool for understanding how smoothing, crossovers, and filters interact under different market conditions.
The script displays:
A primary EMA line (the fast reactive wave).
A Smoothed line (using your chosen smoothing method).
Optional fog zones between them for quick visual context.
Optional DNA rungs connecting both lines to illustrate volatility compression and expansion.
Optional EMA 8 / EMA 21 trend filter to observe higher-time-frame alignment.
Core Idea
The Rasta model focuses on wave interaction. When the fast EMA crosses above the smoothed line, it reflects a shift in short-term momentum relative to background trend pressure. Cross-unders suggest weakening or reversal.
Rather than treating this as a trading “signal,” use it to observe structure, study trend alignment, and test how smoothing type affects reaction speed.
Smoothing Types Explained
The script lets you experiment with multiple smoothing techniques:
Type Description Use Case
SMA (Simple Moving Average) Arithmetic mean of the last n values. Smooth and steady, but slower. Trend-following studies; filters noise on higher time frames.
EMA (Exponential Moving Average) Weights recent data more. Responds faster to new price action. Momentum or reactive strategies; quick shifts and reversals.
RMA (Relative Moving Average) Used internally by RSI; smooths exponentially but slower than EMA. Momentum confirmation; balanced response.
WMA (Weighted Moving Average) Linear weights emphasizing the most recent data strongly. Intraday scalping; crisp but potentially noisy.
None Disables smoothing; uses the EMA line alone. Raw comparison baseline.
Each smoothing method changes how early or late the strategy reacts:
Faster smoothing (EMA/WMA) = more responsive, good for scalping.
Slower smoothing (SMA/RMA) = more stable, good for trend following.
Modes of Study
🔹 Scalper Mode
Use short EMA lengths (e.g., 3–5) and fast smoothing (EMA or WMA).
Focus on 1 min – 15 min charts.
Watch how quick crossovers appear near local tops/bottoms.
Fog and rung compression reveal volatility contraction before bursts.
Goal: study short-term rhythm and liquidity pulses.
🔹 Momentum Mode
Use moderate EMA (5–9) and RMA smoothing.
Ideal for 1 H–4 H charts.
Observe how the fog color aligns with trend shifts.
EMA 8 / 21 filter can act as macro bias; “Enter” labels will appear only in its direction when enabled.
Goal: study sustained motion between pullbacks and acceleration waves.
🔹 Trend-Follower Mode
Use longer EMA (13–21) with SMA smoothing.
Great for daily/weekly charts.
Focus on periods where fog stays unbroken for long stretches — these illustrate clear trend dominance.
Watch rung spacing: tight clusters often precede consolidations; wide rungs signal expanding volatility.
Goal: visualize slow-motion trend transitions and filter whipsaw conditions.
Components
EMA Line (Red): Fast-reacting short-term direction.
Smoothed Line (Yellow): Reference trend baseline.
Fog Zone: Green when EMA > Smoothed (up-momentum), red when below.
DNA Rungs: Thin connectors showing volatility structure.
EMA 8 / 21 Filter (optional):
When enabled, the strategy will only allow Enter events if EMA 8 > EMA 21.
Use this to study higher-trend gating effects.
Educational Applications
Momentum Visualization: Observe how the fast EMA “breathes” around the smoothed baseline.
Trend Transitions: Compare different smoothing types to see how early or late reversals are detected.
Noise Filtering: Experiment with fog opacity and smoothing lengths to understand trade-off between responsiveness and stability.
Risk Concept Simulation: Includes a simple fixed stop-loss parameter (default 13%) for educational demonstrations of position management in the Strategy Tester.
How to Use
Add to Chart → “Strategy.”
Works on any timeframe and instrument.
Adjust Parameters:
Length: base EMA speed.
Smoothing Type: choose SMA, EMA, RMA, or WMA.
Smoothing Length: controls delay and smoothness.
EMA 8 / 21 Filter: toggles trend gating.
Fog & Rungs: visual study options only.
Study Behavior:
Use Strategy Tester → List of Trades for entry/exit context.
Observe how different smoothing types affect early vs. late “Enter” points.
Compare trend periods vs. ranging periods to evaluate efficiency.
Combine with External Tools:
Overlay RSI, MACD, or Volume for deeper correlation analysis.
Use replay mode to visualize crossovers in live sequence.
Interpreting the Labels
Enter: Marks where fast EMA crosses above the smoothed line (or when filter flips positive).
Exit: Marks where fast EMA crosses back below.
These are purely analytical markers — they do not represent trade advice.
Educational Value
The Rasta framework helps learners explore:
Reaction time differences between moving-average algorithms.
Impact of smoothing on signal clarity.
Interaction of local and global trends.
Visualization of volatility contraction (tight DNA rungs) and expansion (wide fog zones).
It’s a sandbox for studying price structure, not a promise of profit.
