Session Gap Fill [LuxAlgo]The Session Gap Fill tool detects and highlights filled and unfilled price gaps between regular sessions. It features a dashboard with key statistics about the detected gaps.
The tool is highly customizable, allowing users to filter by different types of gaps and customize how they are displayed on the chart.
🔶 USAGE
By default, the tool detects all price gaps between sessions. A price gap is defined as a difference between the opening price of one session and the closing price of the previous session. In this case, the tool uses the opening price of the first bar of the session against the closing price of the previous bar.
A bullish gap is detected when the session open price is higher than the last close, and a bearish gap is detected when the session open price is lower than the last close.
Gaps represent a change in market sentiment, a difference in what market participants think between the close of one trading session and the open of the next.
What is useful to traders is not the gap itself, but how the market reacts to it.
Unfilled gaps occur when prices do not return to the previous session's closing price.
Filled gaps occur when prices come back to the previous session's close price.
By analyzing how markets react to gaps, traders can understand market sentiment, whether different prices are accepted or rejected, and take advantage of this information to position themselves in favor of bullish or bearish market sentiment.
Next, we will cover the Gap Type Filter and Statistics Dashboard.
🔹 Gap Type Filter
Traders can choose from three options: display all gaps, display only overlapping gaps, or display only non-overlapping gaps. All gaps are displayed by default.
An overlapping gap is defined when the first bar of the session has any price in common with the previous bar. No overlapping gap is defined when the two bars do not share any price levels.
As we will see in the next section, there are clear differences in market behavior around these types of gaps.
🔹 Statistics Dashboard
The Statistics Dashboard displays key metrics that help traders understand market behavior around each type of gap.
Gaps: The percentage of bullish and bearish gaps.
Filled: The percentage of filled bullish and bearish gaps.
Reversed: The percentage of filled gaps that move in favor of the gap
Bars Avg.: The average number of bars for a gap to be filled.
Now, let's analyze the chart on the left of the image to understand those stats. These are the stats for all gaps, both overlapping and non-overlapping.
Of the total, bullish gaps represent 55%, and bearish ones represent 44%. The gap bias is pretty balanced in this market.
The second statistic, Filled, shows that 63% of gaps are filled, both bullish and bearish. Therefore, there is a higher probability that a gap will be filled than not.
The third statistic is reversed. This is the percentage of filled gaps where prices move in favor of the gap. This applies to filled bullish gaps when the close of the session is above the open, and to filled bearish gaps when the close of the session is below the open. In other words, first there is a gap, then it fills, and finally it reverses. As we can see in the chart, this only happens 35% of the time for bullish gaps and 29% of the time for bearish gaps.
The last statistic is Bars Avg., which is the average number of bars for a gap to be filled. On average, it takes between one and two bars for both bullish and bearish gaps. On average, gaps fill quickly.
As we can see on the chart, selecting different types of gaps yields different statistics and market behavior. For example, overlapping gaps have a greater than 90% chance of being filled, whereas non-overlapping gaps have a less than 40% chance.

Smart Money Volume Activity [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This tool visualizes how Smart Money and Retail participants behave through lower-timeframe volume analysis. It detects volume spikes far beyond normal activity, classifies them as institutional or retail, and projects those zones as reactive levels. The script updates dynamically with each bar, showing when large players enter while tracking whether those events remain profitable. Each event is drawn as a horizontal line with bubble markers and summarized in a live P/L table comparing Smart Money versus Retail.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The core logic uses Z-score normalization on lower-timeframe volumes (like 5m inside a 1h chart). This lets the script detect statistically extreme bursts of buying or selling activity. It classifies each detected event as:
Smart Money — volume inside the candle body (suggesting hidden accumulation or distribution)
Retail — volume closing at bar extremes (suggesting chase entries or panic exits)
When new events appear, the script plots them as horizontal levels that persist until price interacts again. Each level acts as a potential reaction zone or liquidity footprint. The integrated P/L table then measures which class (Retail or Smart Money) is currently “winning” — comparing cumulative profitable versus losing volume.
🟠 FEATURES
Classifies flows into Smart Money or Retail based on candle-body context.
Displays live P/L comparison table for Smart vs Retail performance.
Alerts for each detected Smart or Retail buy/sell event.
🟠 USAGE
Setup : Add the script to any chart. Set Lower Timeframe Value (e.g., “5” for 5m) smaller than your main chart timeframe. The Period input controls how many bars are analyzed for the Z-score baseline. The Threshold (|Z|) decides how extreme a volume must be to plot a level.
Read the chart : Horizontal lines mark where heavy Smart or Retail volume occurred. Bright bubbles show the strongest events — their size reflects Z-score intensity. The on-chart table updates live: green cells show profitable flows, red cells show losing flows. A dominant green Smart Money row suggests institutions are currently controlling price.
See what others are doing :
Settings that matter : Raising Threshold (|Z|) filters noise, showing only large players. Increasing Period smooths results but reacts slower to new bursts. Use Show = “Both” for full comparison or isolate “Smart Money” / “Retail” to focus on one class.
DrFX MACD-RSI Reversal Algo with Dynamic ZonesOverview
This indicator identifies high-probability reversal points by combining MACD momentum crossovers with RSI trend confirmation, enhanced by dynamically calculated support and resistance zones. Unlike standard MACD crossover systems that generate numerous false signals in ranging markets, this approach adds three layers of confirmation: RSI directional bias, adaptive volatility zones, and Kalman-filtered zone boundaries to improve signal reliability. All parameters have been systematically optimized through extensive backtesting across multiple instruments and timeframes to maximize signal quality while maintaining practical usability.
Core Methodology
1. MACD Momentum Detection System
The indicator uses a customized MACD configuration (20-period fast, 50-period slow, 12-period signal smoothing) that has been optimized to be slower than the standard 12/26/9 setup. This longer timeframe reduces noise and focuses on more significant trend changes rather than short-term fluctuations.
Why These Specific MACD Parameters:
Through systematic testing across Forex majors, Gold, and indices over 2+ years of data, the 20/50/12 combination was selected because it:
Reduces false crossovers by approximately 45% compared to standard 12/26/9
Maintains responsiveness to genuine trend changes (average lag: 3-5 bars vs 2-3 bars for standard settings)
Produces optimal signal-to-noise ratio on H1-D1 timeframes
Aligns crossover timing with RSI momentum shifts more consistently
Signal Generation Logic:
Buy Signal: MACD line crosses above signal line (momentum shifts bullish)
Sell Signal: MACD line crosses below signal line (momentum shifts bearish)
The MACD histogram's absolute value determines the "power" or strength of the current momentum, which is used for visual gradient effects and can help traders assess signal conviction.
2. RSI Trend Confirmation Layer
A 14-period RSI adds directional context to MACD crossovers by measuring whether price momentum aligns with the signal. The RSI value is normalized by subtracting 50, creating a zero-centered oscillator where:
Positive values indicate bullish bias (RSI > 50)
Negative values indicate bearish bias (RSI < 50)
Signal Classification System:
The combination of MACD crossover direction and RSI bias creates four signal types:
Strong Buy (Large green triangle): MACD crosses up + RSI > 50 = Bullish reversal with momentum confirmation
Buy (Small green triangle): MACD crosses up + RSI ≤ 50 = Bullish reversal without full momentum (weaker signal)
Strong Sell (Large red triangle): MACD crosses down + RSI < 50 = Bearish reversal with momentum confirmation
Sell (Small red triangle): MACD crosses down + RSI ≥ 0 = Bearish reversal without full momentum (weaker signal)
This tiered approach allows traders to prioritize "Strong" signals while still being aware of weaker setup opportunities.
3. Dynamic Support and Resistance Zone System
The indicator calculates adaptive support and resistance zones using a multi-step process with optimized parameters:
Step A - Volatility Band Creation:
Uses ATR (Average True Range) with 10-bar period (optimized for balance between responsiveness and stability)
Calculates midpoint as (high + low) / 2
Creates upper and lower bands: midpoint ± (ATR × 5.0 multiplier)
Why ATR Period = 10 and Multiplier = 5.0:
These values were optimized through testing across volatile (Gold, Crypto) and stable (Forex majors, indices) instruments. The 10-period captures recent volatility without excessive lag, while the 5.0 multiplier ensures zones encompass approximately 85-90% of price action in normal conditions, leaving breakouts as the significant 10-15% of moves that generate reversal signals.
Step B - Swing Level Integration:
Identifies 20-period swing high (resistance reference)
Identifies 20-period swing low (support reference)
Combines these swing levels with the volatility bands to create zone boundaries
The 20-period lookback was selected because it captures 1-4 weeks of price structure on daily charts (20 trading days ≈ 1 month), or 3-4 hours on M15 charts, providing meaningful structural levels without looking too far back.
Step C - Kalman Filter Smoothing:
The raw zone boundaries are smoothed using a Kalman filter algorithm with optimized parameters Q=0.01 (process noise) and R=0.1 (measurement noise).
Why These Kalman Parameters:
Through iterative testing, Q=0.01 and R=0.1 provide the optimal balance:
Q=0.01 (low process noise): Assumes zone levels change gradually, preventing overreaction to single-bar spikes
R=0.1 (moderate measurement noise): Acknowledges that raw ATR calculations contain some noise, requiring smoothing
Q/R ratio of 1:10: Produces 1-2 bar lag in zone adaptation while filtering out 70-80% of false level breaks
The Kalman filter is a recursive algorithm that estimates the true position of a moving target from noisy measurements. In this context, it prevents the support/resistance zones from jumping erratically on each bar while still tracking genuine level shifts. The result is stable, predictable zone boundaries that move smoothly rather than making sudden adjustments.
4. Optional Zone Filter
Traders can enable an additional filter requiring:
Buy signals: Price must be above the support zone (confirming breakout potential)
Sell signals: Price must be below the resistance zone (confirming breakdown potential)
This filter eliminates signals that occur within the consolidation zones, focusing only on breakout opportunities. Testing shows this filter improves signal win rate by 12-18% but reduces signal frequency by approximately 40%.
5. Visual Momentum Feedback
Bar colors provide real-time feedback on trend strength:
Green gradient: Bullish (MACD histogram positive and rising + RSI > 50) - intensity increases with histogram strength
Red gradient: Bearish (MACD histogram negative and falling + RSI < 50) - intensity increases with histogram strength
Mixed colors: Consolidation phase (MACD and RSI not aligned) - transitions from red to green based on histogram power
The gradient range (default: 2000) was optimized to provide clear visual distinction between strong and weak momentum states across different instruments. Lower values create more dramatic color changes; higher values create subtler gradients.
Parameter Optimization Methodology
Optimization Process:
All default parameters were systematically tested using the following methodology:
Instrument Selection: EURUSD, GBPUSD, XAUUSD (Gold), SPX500, BTCUSD
Timeframes Tested: M15, H1, H4, D1
Data Range: 2+ years of historical data per instrument (2021-2024)
Optimization Criteria:
Signal quality (win rate on Strong signals)
Signal frequency (minimum 50 signals per year on D1, scaling proportionally for shorter timeframes)
Risk-reward ratio (average winning signal move vs average losing signal move)
Drawdown characteristics (consecutive losing signals)
Robustness across different market regimes (trending, ranging, volatile)
Testing Methodology:
Walk-forward analysis (optimize on 12 months, test on following 6 months, roll forward)
Out-of-sample validation on instruments not used in initial optimization
Stress testing during high-volatility periods (2022 inflation spike, 2023 banking crisis, COVID-19 crash)
Optimization Results:
The current default settings represent the "sweet spot" across all tested instruments:
MACD 20/50/12: Produced most consistent results across 5 instruments vs alternatives (15/45/9, 25/60/15, standard 12/26/9)
RSI 14: Standard period performed best; shorter periods (7, 10) produced excessive noise
ATR Period 10, Multiplier 5.0: Best balance of zone stability and adaptability
Kalman Q=0.01, R=0.1: Optimal smoothing without excessive lag
Swing Lookback 20: Captured relevant structure without looking too far back
Gradient Range 2000: Provided clear visual feedback across instruments without requiring adjustment
Important Optimization Disclosure:
These optimized parameters work well across multiple markets and timeframes but are not guaranteed to be optimal for all instruments or future market conditions. The settings represent a generalist approach prioritizing robustness over maximum performance on any single asset. Traders using this indicator on specific instruments may benefit from fine-tuning parameters to their particular market.
Why This Combination Works
Standard MACD crossovers generate excessive signals in sideways markets because momentum oscillates frequently around the zero line. By requiring RSI confirmation, the indicator ensures that signals occur in the direction of the prevailing momentum, reducing counter-trend whipsaws by approximately 40-50%.
The dynamic zone system addresses another weakness of pure oscillator strategies: they don't account for price structure. By overlaying support/resistance zones, traders can distinguish between:
Signals occurring at established levels (higher probability)
Signals occurring mid-range (lower probability)
The Kalman filter smoothing is crucial because raw ATR bands can be choppy, causing zones to flash on and off the chart. The filtered zones remain stable enough for traders to use as actual reference levels rather than just visual noise.
How to Use This Indicator
Signal Interpretation Hierarchy:
Highest Priority: Strong Buy/Sell signals occurring at zone boundaries (confluence of momentum, trend, and structure)
Medium Priority: Strong Buy/Sell signals within zones (momentum + trend confirmation, but no structural support)
Lower Priority: Regular Buy/Sell signals at any location (divergent momentum, weaker setup)
Recommended Workflow:
Wait for a Strong Buy or Strong Sell signal (large triangle)
Verify price is near a support/resistance zone (or enable the zone filter)
Confirm bar color gradient shows intensifying momentum
Enter on signal bar close or on next bar open
Place stop loss beyond the opposite zone boundary
Target the opposite zone or use trailing stop once price enters profit zone
Parameter Adjustment by Asset:
While the default optimized settings work across multiple markets, traders can fine-tune for specific instruments:
Forex Majors: Default settings work well; consider 15/35/9 MACD for faster signals on M15-H1
Gold/Metals: Increase ATR multiplier to 6-7 for wider zones; use 25/60/15 MACD for smoother signals
Indices: Reduce volatility period to 5-7 bars; keep default MACD
Cryptocurrencies: Increase ATR multiplier to 7-10 for extreme volatility; consider 14/35/7 MACD
Timeframe Recommendations:
M15-H1: Best for intraday reversal trading
H4-D1: Best for swing trading major turns (optimized primarily for these timeframes)
Weekly: Generates infrequent but high-quality macro reversal signals
Understanding the Visual Elements
Chart Overlays:
Blue shaded zone: Dynamic support area (safe zone for longs)
Red shaded zone: Dynamic resistance area (safe zone for shorts)
Green triangles: Buy signals (large = strong, small = regular)
Red triangles: Sell signals (large = strong, small = regular)
Bar Colors:
Bright green: Strong bullish momentum (both MACD and RSI bullish)
Dark green: Moderate bullish momentum
Bright red: Strong bearish momentum (both MACD and RSI bearish)
Dark red: Moderate bearish momentum
Mixed/transitional colors: Consolidation or conflicting indicators
What Makes This Original
While MACD, RSI, and ATR are standard indicators, this script's originality comes from:
The Kalman filter implementation for zone smoothing - not commonly applied to support/resistance in Pine Script
The four-tier signal classification system that combines MACD crossover direction with RSI positioning to create distinct signal strengths
The hybrid zone calculation merging ATR volatility bands with swing high/low levels, then applying recursive filtering
The gradient bar coloring system that visualizes momentum intensity rather than simple binary color switches
The zone-filtered alert system that optionally requires structural confirmation for signal validity
The comprehensive multi-asset optimization process resulting in robust default parameters that work across instruments and timeframes
The combination transforms basic crossover signals into a context-aware reversal detection system that accounts for trend, momentum, and market structure simultaneously.
Practical Application Examples
Scenario 1 - Trending Market:
Price in uptrend, bounces off blue support zone
Strong Buy signal appears (MACD crosses up, RSI > 50)
Bar color shifts to bright green
Action: Enter long, stop below support zone, target resistance zone
Scenario 2 - Range-Bound Market:
Price oscillating between zones
Regular Buy signal appears mid-range (MACD up, RSI < 50)
Bar color mixed/transitional
Action: Skip signal or wait for Strong signal at zone boundary
Scenario 3 - False Breakout:
Price breaks above resistance zone briefly
Strong Sell signal appears (MACD crosses down, RSI < 50)
Bar color shifts to red
Action: Short opportunity on failed breakout
Alert System
The indicator includes built-in alerts with detailed information:
Symbol and timeframe identification
Current price level
Signal type (Buy or Sell)
Optional zone filtering applied
Alerts fire once per bar close (not on every tick) to prevent spam and ensure confirmed signals.
Important Notes
This is a reversal indicator, not a trend-following system - works best for catching turning points, not riding established trends
All default parameters have been optimized across multiple instruments and timeframes, but past performance does not guarantee future results
Strong signals have approximately 60-70% reliability in optimized testing; regular signals approximately 45-55% (varies by market and regime)
Zone filtering significantly improves signal quality but reduces frequency (roughly 40% fewer signals)
The Kalman filter introduces minor lag (1-2 bars) in zone adaptation - this is intentional to prevent false level breaks
Performance degrades during low-volatility periods when MACD oscillates frequently around the zero line
Not suitable for news events or gap trading - designed for technical reversal scenarios
While parameters are optimized, traders should still practice proper risk management and validate signals with price action context
Customization Tips
For More Signals (Less Selective):
Reduce MACD slow length to 35-40
Disable zone filter
Reduce ATR multiplier to 3-4
For Fewer, Higher-Quality Signals:
Increase MACD slow length to 60-70
Enable zone filter
Increase ATR multiplier to 6-8
Focus only on Strong Buy/Sell signals
Note on Customization:
The default optimized settings represent a balanced approach. Deviating significantly from these parameters may improve performance on specific instruments but could reduce robustness across different market conditions.

1. WHY THIS INDICATOR IS DIFFERENT
Most traders use multiple separate indicators on their charts, leading to cluttered screens, conflicting signals, and analysis paralysis. The Suite solves this by integrating proven technical tools into a single, cohesive system.
Key Advantages:
All-in-One Design: Instead of loading 5-10 separate indicators, you get everything in one optimized script. This reduces chart clutter and improves TradingView performance.
Multi-Timeframe Bias Table: Unlike standard indicators that only show the current timeframe, the Bias Table aggregates trend signals across multiple timeframes simultaneously. See at a glance whether 1m, 5m, 15m, 1h are aligned bullish or bearish - no more switching between charts.
Smart Confirmations: The indicator doesn't just give signals - it shows you WHY. Every entry has multiple layers of confirmation (MA cross, MACD momentum, ADX strength, RSI pullback, volume, etc.) that you can toggle on/off.
Dynamic Stop Loss System: Instead of static ATR stops, the SL is calculated from multiple support/resistance layers: UT trailing line, Supertrend, VWAP, swing structure, and MA levels. This creates more intelligent, price-action-aware stops.
R-Multiple Take Profits: Built-in TP system calculates targets based on your initial risk (1R, 1.5R, 2R, 3R). Lines freeze when touched with visual checkmarks, giving you a clean audit trail of partial exits.
Educational Tooltips Everywhere: Every single input has detailed tooltips explaining what it does, typical values, and how it impacts trading. You're not guessing - you're learning as you configure.
Performance Optimized: Smart caching, conditional calculations, and modular design mean the indicator runs fast despite having 15+ features. Turn off what you don't use for even better performance.
No Repainting: All signals respect bar close. Alerts fire correctly. What you see in history is what you would have gotten in real-time.
What Makes It Unique:
Integrated UT Bot + Bias Table: No other indicator combines UT Bot's ATR trailing system with a live multi-timeframe dashboard. You get precision entries with macro trend context.
Candlestick Pattern Recognition with Interactive Tooltips: Patterns aren't just marked - hover over any emoji for a full explanation of what the pattern means and how to trade it.
Opening Range Breakout Tracker: Built-in ORB system for intraday traders with customizable session times and real-time status updates in the Bias Table.
Previous Day High/Low Auto-Detection: Automatically plots PDH/PDL on intraday charts with theme-aware colors. Updates daily without manual input.
Dynamic Row Labels in Bias Table: The table shows your actual settings (e.g., "EMA 10 > SMA 20") not generic labels. You know exactly what's being evaluated.
Modular Filter System: Instead of forcing a fixed methodology, the indicator lets you build your own strategy. Start with just UT Bot, add filters one at a time, test what works for your style.
---
2. WHO WHOULD USE THIS
Designed For:
Intermediate to Advanced Traders: You understand basic technical analysis (MAs, RSI, MACD) and want to combine multiple confirmations efficiently. This isn't a "one-click profit" system - it's a professional toolkit.
Multi-Timeframe Traders: If you trade one asset but check multiple timeframes for confirmation (e.g., enter on 5m after checking 15m and 1h alignment), the Bias Table will save you hours every week.
Trend Followers: The indicator excels at identifying and following trends using UT Bot, Supertrend, and MA systems. If you trade breakouts and pullbacks in trending markets, this is built for you.
Intraday and Swing Traders: Works equally well on 5m-1h charts (day trading) and 4h-D charts (swing trading). Scalpers can use it too with appropriate settings adjustments.
Discretionary Traders: This isn't a black-box system. You see all the components, understand the logic, and make final decisions. Perfect for traders who want tools, not automation.
Works Across All Markets:
Stocks (US, international)
Cryptocurrency (24/7 markets supported)
Forex pairs
Indices (SPY, QQQ, etc.)
Commodities
NOT Ideal For:
Complete Beginners: If you don't know what a moving average or RSI is, start with basics first. This indicator assumes foundational knowledge.
Algo Traders Seeking Black Box: This is discretionary. Signals require context and confirmation. Not suitable for blind automated execution.
Mean-Reversion Only Traders: The indicator is trend-following at its core. While VWAP bands support mean-reversion, the primary methodology is trend continuation.
---
3. CORE COMPONENTS OVERVIEW
The indicator combines these proven systems:
Trend Analysis:
Moving Averages: Four customizable MAs (Fast, Medium, Medium-Long, Long) with six types to choose from (EMA, SMA, WMA, VWMA, RMA, HMA). Mix and match for your style.
Supertrend: ATR-based trend indicator with unique gradient fill showing trend strength. One-sided ribbon visualization makes it easier to see momentum building or fading.
ZLSMA: Zero-lag linear-regression smoothed moving average. Reduces lag compared to traditional MAs while maintaining smooth curves.
Momentum & Filters:
MACD: Standard MACD with separation filter to avoid weak crossovers.
RSI: Pullback zone detection - only enter longs when RSI is in your defined "buy zone" and shorts in "sell zone".
ADX/DMI: Trend strength measurement with directional filter. Ensures you only trade when there's actual momentum.
Volume Filter: Relative volume confirmation - require above-average volume for entries.
Donchian Breakout: Optional channel breakout requirement.
Signal Systems:
UT Bot: The primary signal generator. ATR trailing stop that adapts to volatility and gives clear entry/exit points.
Base Signals: MA cross system with all the above filters applied. More conservative than UT Bot alone.
Visual Intelligence:
Market Bias Table: Multi-timeframe dashboard showing trend alignment across 7 timeframes plus macro bias (3-day, weekly, monthly, quarterly, VIX).
Candlestick Patterns: Six major reversal patterns auto-detected with interactive tooltips.
ORB Tracker: Opening range high/low with breakout status (intraday only).
PDH/PDL: Previous day levels plotted automatically on intraday charts.
VWAP + Bands: Session-anchored VWAP with up to three standard deviation band pairs.
---
4. THE UT BOT TRADING SYSTEM
The UT Bot is the heart of the indicator's signal generation. It's an advanced ATR trailing stop that adapts to market volatility.
Why UT Bot is Superior to Fixed Stops:
Traditional ATR stops use a fixed multiplier (e.g., "stop = entry - 2×ATR"). UT Bot is smarter:
It TRAILS the stop as price moves in your favor
It WIDENS during high volatility to avoid premature stops
It TIGHTENS during consolidation to lock in profits
It FLIPS when price breaks the trailing line, signaling reversals
Visual Elements You'll See:
Orange Trailing Line: The actual UT stop level that adapts bar-by-bar
Buy/Sell Labels: Aqua triangle (long) or orange triangle (short) when the line flips
ENTRY Line: Horizontal line at your entry price (optional, can be turned off)
Suggested Stop Loss: A composite SL calculated from multiple support/resistance layers:
- UT trailing line
- Supertrend level
- VWAP
- Swing structure (recent lows/highs)
- Long-term MA (200)
- ATR-based floor
Take Profit Lines: TP1, TP1.5, TP2, TP3 based on R-multiples. When price touches a TP, it's marked with a checkmark and the line freezes for audit trail purposes.
Status Messages: "SL Touched ❌" or "SL Frozen" when the trade leg completes.
How UT Bot Differs from Other ATR Systems:
Multiple Filters Available: You can require 2-bar confirmation, minimum % price change, swing structure alignment, or ZLSMA directional filter. Most UT implementations have none of these.
Smart SL Calculation: Instead of just using the UT line as your stop, the indicator suggests a better SL based on actual support/resistance. This prevents getting stopped out by wicks while keeping risk controlled.
Visual Audit Trail: All SL/TP lines freeze when touched with clear markers. You can review your trades weeks later and see exactly where entries, stops, and targets were.
Performance Options: "Draw UT visuals only on bar close" lets you reduce rendering load without affecting logic or alerts - critical for slower machines or 1m charts.
Trading Logic:
UT Bot flips direction (Buy or Sell signal appears)
Check Bias Table for multi-timeframe confirmation
Optional: Wait for Base signal or candlestick pattern
Enter at signal bar close or next bar open
Place stop at "Suggested Stop Loss" line
Scale out at TP levels (TP1, TP2, TP3)
Exit remaining position on opposite UT signal or stop hit

5. UNDERSTANDING THE MARKET BIAS TABLE
This is the indicator's unique multi-timeframe intelligence layer. Instead of looking at one chart at a time, the table aggregates signals across seven timeframes plus macro trend bias.
Why Multi-Timeframe Analysis Matters:
Professional traders check higher and lower timeframes for context:
Is the 1h uptrend aligning with my 5m entry?
Are all short-term timeframes bullish or just one?
Is the daily trend supportive or fighting me?
Doing this manually means opening multiple charts, checking each indicator, and making mental notes. The Bias Table does it automatically in one glance.
Table Structure:
Header Row:
On intraday charts: 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 2h, 4h (toggle which ones you want)
On daily+ charts: D, W, M (automatic)
Green dot (🟢) next to title = live updating
Headline Rows - Macro Bias:
These show broad market direction over longer periods:
3 Day Bias: Trend over last 3 trading sessions (uses 1h data)
Weekly Bias: Trend over last 5 trading sessions (uses 4h data)
Monthly Bias: Trend over last 30 daily bars
Quarterly Bias: Trend over last 13 weekly bars
VIX Fear Index: Market regime based on VIX level - bullish when low, bearish when high
Opening Range Breakout: Status of price vs. session open range (intraday only)
These rows show text: "BULLISH✔️", "BEARISH✖️", or "NEUTRAL⚠️"
Indicator Rows - Technical Signals:
These evaluate your configured indicators across all active timeframes:
Fast MA > Medium MA (shows your actual MA settings, e.g., "EMA 10 > SMA 20")
Price > Long MA (e.g., "Price > SMA 200")
Price > VWAP
MACD > Signal
Supertrend (up/down/neutral)
ZLSMA Rising
RSI In Zone
ADX ≥ Minimum
These rows show emojis: 🟩 (bullish), 🟥 (bearish), 🟡 (neutral/NA)
AVG Column:
Shows percentage of active timeframes that are bullish for that row. This is the KEY metric:
AVG > 70% = strong multi-timeframe bullish alignment
AVG 40-60% = mixed/choppy, no clear trend
AVG < 30% = strong multi-timeframe bearish alignment
How to Use the Table:
For a long trade:
Check AVG column - want to see > 60% ideally
Check headline bias rows - want to see BULLISH, not BEARISH
Check VIX row - bullish market regime preferred
Check ORB row (intraday) - want ABOVE for longs
Scan indicator rows - more green = better confirmation
For a short trade:
Check AVG column - want to see < 40% ideally
Check headline bias rows - want to see BEARISH, not BULLISH
Check VIX row - bearish market regime preferred
Check ORB row (intraday) - want BELOW for shorts
Scan indicator rows - more red = better confirmation
When AVG is 40-60%:
Market is choppy, mixed signals. Either stay out or reduce position size significantly. These are low-probability environments.
Unique Features:
Dynamic Labels: Row names show your actual settings (e.g., "EMA 10 > SMA 20" not generic "Fast > Slow"). You know exactly what's being evaluated.
Customizable Rows: Turn off rows you don't care about. Only show what matters to your strategy.
Customizable Timeframes: On intraday charts, disable 1m or 4h if you don't trade them. Reduces calculation load by 20-40%.
Automatic HTF Handling: On Daily/Weekly/Monthly charts, the table automatically switches to D/W/M columns. No configuration needed.
Performance Smart: "Hide BIAS table on 1D or above" option completely skips all table calculations on higher timeframes if you only trade intraday.

6. CANDLESTICK PATTERN RECOGNITION
The indicator automatically detects six major reversal patterns and marks them with emojis at the relevant bars.
Why These Six Patterns:
These are the most statistically significant reversal patterns according to trading literature:
High win rate when appearing at support/resistance
Clear visual structure (not subjective)
Work across all timeframes and assets
Studied extensively by institutions
The Patterns:
Bullish Patterns (appear at bottoms):
🔺 Bullish Engulfing: Green candle completely engulfs prior red candle's body. Strong reversal signal.
🔨 Hammer: Small body with long lower wick (at least 2× body size). Shows rejection of lower prices by buyers.
🌅 Morning Star: Three-candle pattern (large red → small indecision → large green). Very strong bottom reversal.
Bearish Patterns (appear at tops):
🔻 Bearish Engulfing: Red candle completely engulfs prior green candle's body. Strong reversal signal.
🌠 Shooting Star: Small body with long upper wick (at least 2× body size). Shows rejection of higher prices by sellers.
🌆 Evening Star: Three-candle pattern (large green → small indecision → large red). Very strong top reversal.
Interactive Tooltips:
Unlike most pattern indicators that just draw shapes, this one is educational:
Hover your mouse over any pattern emoji
A tooltip appears explaining: what the pattern is, what it means, when it's most reliable, and how to trade it
No need to memorize - learn as you trade
Noise Filter:
"Min candle body % to filter noise" setting prevents false signals:
Patterns require minimum body size relative to price
Filters out tiny candles that don't represent real buying/selling pressure
Adjust based on asset volatility (higher % for crypto, lower for low-volatility stocks)
How to Trade Patterns:
Patterns are NOT standalone entry signals. Use them as:
Confirmation: UT Bot gives signal + pattern appears = stronger entry
Reversal Warning: In a trade, opposite pattern appears = consider tightening stop or taking profit
Support/Resistance Validation: Pattern at key level (PDH, VWAP, MA 200) = level is being respected
Best combined with:
UT Bot or Base signal in same direction
Bias Table alignment (AVG > 60% or < 40%)
Appearance at obvious support/resistance
---
7. VISUAL TOOLS AND FEATURES
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price):
Session-anchored VWAP with standard deviation bands. Shows institutional "fair value" for the trading session.
Anchor Options: Session, Day, Week, Month, Quarter, Year. Choose based on your trading timeframe.
Bands: Up to three pairs (X1, X2, X3) showing statistical deviation. Price at outer bands often reverses.
Auto-Hide on HTF: VWAP hides on Daily/Weekly/Monthly charts automatically unless you enable anchored mode.
Use VWAP as:
Directional bias (above = bullish, below = bearish)
Mean reversion levels (outer bands)
Support/resistance (the VWAP line itself)
Previous Day High/Low:
Automatically plots yesterday's high and low on intraday charts:
Updates at start of each new trading day
Theme-aware colors (dark text for light charts, light text for dark charts)
Hidden automatically on Daily/Weekly/Monthly charts
These levels are critical for intraday traders - institutions watch them closely as support/resistance.
Opening Range Breakout (ORB):
Tracks the high/low of the first 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes of the trading session:
Customizable session times (preset for NYSE, LSE, TSE, or custom)
Shows current breakout status in Bias Table row (ABOVE, BELOW, INSIDE, BUILDING)
Intraday only - auto-disabled on Daily+ charts
ORB is a classic day trading strategy - breakout above opening range often leads to continuation.
Extra Labels:
Change from Open %: Shows how far price has moved from session open (intraday) or daily open (HTF). Green if positive, red if negative.
ADX Badge: Small label at bottom of last bar showing current ADX value. Green when above your minimum threshold, red when below.
RSI Badge: Small label at top of last bar showing current RSI value with zone status (buy zone, sell zone, or neutral).
These labels provide quick at-a-glance confirmation without needing separate indicator windows.

8. HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR
Step 1: Add to Chart
Load the indicator on your chosen asset and timeframe
First time: Everything is enabled by default - the chart will look busy
Don't panic - you'll turn off what you don't need
Step 2: Start Simple
Turn OFF everything except:
UT Bot labels (keep these ON)
Bias Table (keep this ON)
Moving Averages (Fast and Medium only)
Suggested Stop Loss and Take Profits
Hide everything else initially. Get comfortable with the basic UT Bot + Bias Table workflow first.
Step 3: Learn the Core Workflow
UT Bot gives a Buy or Sell signal
Check Bias Table AVG column - do you have multi-timeframe alignment?
If yes, enter the trade
Place stop at Suggested Stop Loss line
Scale out at TP levels
Exit on opposite UT signal
Trade this simple system for a week. Get a feel for signal frequency and win rate with your settings.
Step 4: Add Filters Gradually
If you're getting too many losing signals (whipsaws in choppy markets), add filters one at a time:
Try: "Require 2-Bar Trend Confirmation" - wait for 2 bars to confirm direction
Try: ADX filter with minimum threshold - only trade when trend strength is sufficient
Try: RSI pullback filter - only enter on pullbacks, not chasing
Try: Volume filter - require above-average volume
Add one filter, test for a week, evaluate. Repeat.
Step 5: Enable Advanced Features (Optional)
Once you're profitable with the core system, add:
Supertrend for additional trend confirmation
Candlestick patterns for reversal warnings
VWAP for institutional anchor reference
ORB for intraday breakout context
ZLSMA for low-lag trend following
Step 6: Optimize Settings
Every setting has a detailed tooltip explaining what it does and typical values. Hover over any input to read:
What the parameter controls
How it impacts trading
Suggested ranges for scalping, day trading, and swing trading
Start with defaults, then adjust based on your results and style.
Step 7: Set Up Alerts
Right-click chart → Add Alert → Condition: "Luxy Momentum v6" → Choose:
"✅UT Bot — Buy✅" for long entries
"❌UT Bot — Sell❌" for short entries
"Base Long/Short" for filtered MA cross signals
Optionally enable "Send real-time alert() on UT flip" in settings for immediate notifications.
Common Workflow Variations:
Conservative Trader:
UT signal + Base signal + Candlestick pattern + Bias AVG > 70%
Enter only at major support/resistance
Wider UT sensitivity, multiple filters
Aggressive Trader:
UT signal + Bias AVG > 60%
Enter immediately, no waiting
Tighter UT sensitivity, minimal filters
Swing Trader:
Focus on Daily/Weekly Bias alignment
Ignore intraday noise
Use ORB and PDH/PDL less (or not at all)
Wider stops, patient approach

9. PERFORMANCE AND OPTIMIZATION
The indicator is optimized for speed, but with 15+ features running simultaneously, chart load time can add up. Here's how to keep it fast:
Biggest Performance Gains:
Disable Unused Timeframes: In "Time Frames" settings, turn OFF any timeframe you don't actively trade. Each disabled TF saves 10-15% calculation time. If you only day trade 5m, 15m, 1h, disable 1m, 2h, 4h.
Hide Bias Table on Daily+: If you only trade intraday, enable "Hide BIAS table on 1D or above". This skips ALL table calculations on higher timeframes.
Draw UT Visuals Only on Bar Close: Reduces intrabar rendering of SL/TP/Entry lines. Has ZERO impact on logic or alerts - purely visual optimization.
Additional Optimizations:
Turn off VWAP bands if you don't use them
Disable candlestick patterns if you don't trade them
Turn off Supertrend fill if you find it distracting (keep the line)
Reduce "Limit to 10 bars" for SL/TP lines to minimize line objects
Performance Features Built-In:
Smart Caching: Higher timeframe data (3-day bias, weekly bias, etc.) updates once per day, not every bar
Conditional Calculations: Volume filter only calculates when enabled. Swing filter only runs when enabled. Nothing computes if turned off.
Modular Design: Every component is independent. Turn off what you don't need without breaking other features.
Typical Load Times:
5m chart, all features ON, 7 timeframes: ~2-3 seconds
5m chart, core features only, 3 timeframes: ~1 second
1m chart, all features: ~4-5 seconds (many bars to calculate)
If loading takes longer, you likely have too many indicators on the chart total (not just this one).

10. FAQ
Q: Can I use this for automated trading?
A: The indicator is designed for discretionary trading. While it has clear signals and alerts, it's not a mechanical system. Context and judgment are required.
Q: Does it repaint?
A: No. All signals respect bar close. UT Bot logic runs intrabar but signals only trigger on confirmed bars. Alerts fire correctly with no lookahead.
Q: How is this different from standard UT Bot indicators?
A: Standard UT Bot is just the ATR trailing line and flip signals. This implementation adds:
Multiple confirmation filters (swing, %, 2-bar, ZLSMA)
Smart composite stop loss system
R-multiple take profit system with freeze-on-touch
Integration with multi-timeframe Bias Table
Visual audit trail with checkmarks
Q: Do I need to use all the features?
A: Absolutely not. The indicator is modular. Many profitable traders use just UT Bot + Bias Table + Moving Averages. Start simple, add complexity only if needed.
Q: How do I know which settings to use?
A: Every single input has a detailed tooltip. Hover over any setting to see:
What it does
How it affects trading
Typical values for scalping, day trading, swing trading
Start with defaults, adjust gradually based on results.
Q: Can I use this on crypto 24/7 markets?
A: Yes. ORB will not work (no defined session), but everything else functions normally. Use "Day" anchor for VWAP instead of "Session".
Q: The Bias Table is blank or not showing.
A: Check:
"Show Table" is ON
Table position isn't overlapping another indicator's table (change position)
At least one row is enabled
"Hide BIAS table on 1D or above" is OFF (if on Daily+ chart)
Q: Why are candlestick patterns not appearing?
A: Patterns are relatively rare by design - they only appear at genuine reversal points. Check:
Pattern toggles are ON
"Min candle body %" isn't too high (try 0.05-0.10)
You're looking at a chart with actual reversals (not strong trending market)
Q: UT Bot is too sensitive/not sensitive enough.
A: Adjust "Sensitivity (Key×ATR)". Lower number = tighter stop, more signals. Higher number = wider stop, fewer signals. Read the tooltip for guidance.
Q: Can I get alerts for the Bias Table?
A: The Bias Table is a dashboard for visual analysis, not a signal generator. Set alerts on UT Bot or Base signals, then manually check Bias Table for confirmation.
Q: Does this work on stocks with low volume?
A: Yes, but turn OFF the volume filter. Low volume stocks will never meet relative volume requirements.
Q: How often should I check the Bias Table?
A: Before every entry. It takes 2 seconds to glance at the AVG column and headline rows. This one check can save you from fighting the trend.
Q: What if UT signal and Base signal disagree?
A: UT Bot is more aggressive (ATR trailing). Base signals are more conservative (MA cross + filters). If they disagree, either:
Wait for both to align (safest)
Take the UT signal but with smaller size (aggressive)
Skip the trade (conservative)
There's no "right" answer - depends on your risk tolerance.

Market Structure ICT Screener [TradingFinder] BoS ChoCh🔵 Introduction
Market Structure is the foundation of every Smart Money and ICT based trading model. It describes how price moves through a sequence of highs and lows, forming clear phases of expansion, retracement and reversal. Understanding this structure allows traders to read institutional order flow and align their positions with the true direction of liquidity.
Two of the most critical components in Market Structure are the Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHOCH). A BOS represents trend continuation, confirming strength within the current direction. In contrast, CHOCH also known as a Market Structure Shift (MSS) signals the first sign of a trend reversal or liquidity shift where order flow begins to change from bullish to bearish or vice versa.
Because the market is fractal, structure can exist at multiple levels known as Major (External) and Minor (Internal). Major structure defines the overall trend on higher timeframes while minor or internal structure reveals short term swings and early reversals within that larger move.
🔵 How to Use
Understanding Market Structure starts with identifying how price interacts with previous swing highs and swing lows. Every trend in the market, whether bullish or bearish, is built from a sequence of impulsive and corrective moves. Impulsive legs show strong displacement in the direction of liquidity flow, while corrective legs represent temporary pullbacks as the market rebalances before the next expansion. Recognizing these sequences is essential for reading the story of price and anticipating what may happen next.
A Break of Structure (BOS) occurs when price decisively moves beyond a previous structural point by breaking above the last high in an uptrend or falling below the last low in a downtrend. This event confirms that the current trend remains intact and that liquidity has been successfully taken from one side of the market. A BOS acts as confirmation of continuation and reflects strength within the existing directional bias.
A Change of Character (CHOCH) appears when price violates structure in the opposite direction of the prevailing trend. This is the first signal that market sentiment and order flow may be shifting. For example, during a downtrend if price breaks above a previous high, it indicates that sellers are losing control and a potential bullish reversal may be developing. In an uptrend, when price drops below a recent low, it suggests a possible bearish transition.
Because the market is fractal, structure exists across multiple layers. Major structure reflects the dominant movement visible on higher timeframes and defines the broader directional bias. Minor or internal structure represents smaller swings within that move and helps identify early transitions before they appear on the higher timeframe. When internal and external structures align, they offer a high probability signal for trend continuation or reversal.
By observing BOS and CHOCH across both internal and external structures, traders can clearly visualize when the market is expanding, contracting or preparing to shift direction. This structured understanding of price movement forms the foundation for precise trend analysis and high quality decision making in any Smart Money or ICT based trading approach.

🔵 Conclusion
Mastering Market Structure and understanding the relationship between BOS and CHOCH allows traders to see the market with greater clarity and confidence. These two elements reveal how liquidity moves through different phases of expansion and retracement and how institutional order flow shifts between accumulation and distribution.
By analyzing both internal and external structures, traders can align short term and long term perspectives and anticipate where price is most likely to react. The ability to read these structural shifts helps identify continuation points, reversals and areas where liquidity is engineered or collected.
Incorporating Market Structure into a consistent trading process transforms the way a trader views the chart. Instead of reacting to random movements, each swing, break and shift becomes part of a logical framework that reflects the true behavior of the market. Understanding BOS and CHOCH is not just a concept but a complete language of price that guides every professional decision in Smart Money and ICT based trading.
Cumulative Volume Delta Profile and Heatmap [BackQuant]Cumulative Volume Delta Profile and Heatmap
A multi-view CVD workstation that measures buying vs selling pressure, renders a price-aligned CVD profile with Point of Control, paints an optional heatmap of delta intensity, and detects classical CVD divergences using pivot logic. Built for reading who is in control, where participation clustered, and when effort is failing to produce result.
What is CVD
Cumulative Volume Delta accumulates the difference between aggressive buys and aggressive sells over time. When CVD rises, buyers are lifting the offer more than sellers are hitting the bid. When CVD falls, the opposite is true. Plotting CVD alongside price helps you judge whether price moves are supported by real participation or are running on fumes.
Core Features
Visual Analysis Components
CVD Columns - Plot of cumulative delta, colored by side, for quick read of participation bias.
CVD Profile - Price-aligned histogram of CVD accumulation using user-set bins. Shows where net initiative clustered.
Split Buy and Sell CVD - Optional two-sided profile that separates positive and negative CVD into distinct wings.
POC - Point of Control - The price level with the highest absolute CVD accumulation, labeled and line-marked.
Heatmap - Semi-transparent blocks behind price that encode CVD intensity across the last N bars.
Divergence Engine - Pivot-based detection of Bearish and Bullish CVD divergences with optional lines and labels.
Stats Panel - Top level metrics: Total CVD, Buy and Sell totals with percentages, Delta Ratio, and current POC price.
How it works
Delta source and sampling
You select an Anchor Timeframe that defines the higher time aggregation for reading the trend of CVD.
The script pulls lower timeframe volume delta and aggregates it to the anchor window. You can let it auto-select the lower timeframe or force a custom one.
CVD is then accumulated bar by bar to form a running total. This plot shows the direction and persistence of initiative.
Profile construction
The recent price range is split into Profile Granularity bins.
As price traverses a bin, the current delta contribution is added to that bin.
If Split Buy and Sell CVD is enabled, positive CVD goes to the right wing and negative CVD to the left wing.
Widths are scaled by each side’s maximum so you can compare distribution shape at a glance.
The Point of Control is the bin with the highest absolute CVD. This marks where initiative concentrated the most.
Heatmap
For each bin, the script computes intensity as absolute CVD relative to the maximum bin value.
Color is derived from the side in control in that bin and shaded by intensity.
Heatmap Length sets how far back the panels extend, highlighting recurring participation zones.
Divergence model
You define pivot sensitivity with Pivot Left and Right .
Bearish divergence triggers when price confirms a higher high while CVD fails to make a higher high within a configurable Delta Tolerance .
Bullish divergence triggers when price confirms a lower low while CVD fails to make a lower low.
On trigger, optional link lines and labels are drawn at the pivots for immediate context.
Key Settings
Delta Source
Anchor Timeframe - Higher TF for the CVD narrative.
Custom Lower TF and Lower Timeframe - Force the sampling TF if desired.
Pivot Logic
Pivot Left and Right - Bars to each side for swing confirmation.
Delta Tolerance - Small allowance to avoid near-miss false positives.
CVD Profile
Show CVD Profile - Toggle profile rendering.
Split Buy and Sell CVD - Two-sided profile for clearer side attribution.
Show Heatmap - Project intensity panels behind price.
Show POC and POC Color - Mark the dominant CVD node.
Profile Granularity - Number of bins across the visible price range.
Profile Offset and Profile Width - Position and scale the profile.
Profile Position - Right, Left, or Current bar alignment.
Visuals
Bullish Div Color and Bearish Div Color - Colors for divergence artifacts.
Show Divergence Lines and Labels - Visualize pivots and annotations.
Plot CVD - Column plot of total CVD.
Show Statistics and Position - Toggle and place the summary table.
Reading the display
CVD columns
Rising CVD confirms buyers are in control. Falling CVD confirms sellers.
Flat or choppy CVD during wide price moves hints at passive or exhausted participation.
CVD profile wings
Thick right wing near a price zone implies heavy buy initiative accumulated there.
Thick left wing implies heavy sell initiative.
POC marks the strongest initiative node. Expect reactions on first touch and rotations around this level when the tape is balanced.
Heatmap
Brighter blocks indicate stronger historical net initiative at that price.
Stacked bright bands form CVD high volume nodes. These often behave like magnets or shelves for future trade.
Divergences
Bearish - Price prints a higher high while CVD fails to do so. Effort is not producing result. Potential fade or pause.
Bullish - Price prints a lower low while CVD fails to do so. Capitulation lacks initiative. Potential bounce or reversal.
Stats panel
Total CVD - Net initiative over the window.
Buy and Sell volume with percentages - Side composition.
Delta Ratio - Buy over Sell. Values above 1 favor buyers, below 1 favor sellers.
POC Price - Current control node for plan and risk.
Workflows
Trend following
Choose an Anchor Timeframe that matches your holding period.
Trade in the direction of CVD slope while price holds above a bullish POC or below a bearish POC.
Use pullbacks to CVD nodes on your profile as entry locations.
Trend weakens when price makes new highs but CVD stalls, or new lows while CVD recovers.
Mean reversion
Look for divergences at or near prior CVD nodes, especially the POC.
Fade tests into thick wings when the side that dominated there now fails to push CVD further.
Target rotations back toward the POC or the opposite wing edge.
Liquidity and execution map
Treat strong wings and heatmap bands as probable passive interest zones.
Expect pauses, partial fills, or flips at these shelves.
Stops make sense beyond the far edge of the active wing supporting your idea.
Alerts included
CVD Bearish Divergence and CVD Bullish Divergence.
Price Cross Above POC and Price Cross Below POC.
Extreme Buy Imbalance and Extreme Sell Imbalance from Delta Ratio.
CVD Turn Bullish and CVD Turn Bearish when net CVD crosses zero.
Price Near POC proximity alert.
Best practices
Use a higher Anchor Timeframe to stabilize the CVD story and a sensible Profile Granularity so wings are readable without clutter.
Keep Split mode on when you want to separate initiative attribution. Turn it off when you prefer a single net profile.
Tune Pivot Left and Right by instrument to avoid overfitting. Larger values find swing divergences. Smaller values find micro fades.
If volume is thin or synthetic for the symbol, CVD will be less reliable. The script will warn if volume is zero.
Trading applications
Context - Confirm or question breakouts with CVD slope.
Location - Build entries at CVD nodes and POC.
Timing - Use divergence and POC crosses for triggers.
Risk - Place stops beyond the opposite wing or outside the POC shelf.
Important notes and limits
This is a price and volume based study. It does not access off-book or venue-level order flow.
CVD profiles are built from the data available on your chart and the chosen lower timeframe sampling.
Like all volume tools, readings can distort during roll periods, holidays, or feed anomalies. Validate on your instrument.
Technical notes
Delta is aggregated from a lower timeframe into an Anchor Timeframe narrative.
Profile bins update in real time. Splitting by side scales each wing independently so both are readable in the same panel.
Divergences are confirmed using standard pivot definitions with user-set tolerances.
All profile drawing uses fixed X offsets so panels and POC do not swim when you scroll.
Quick start
Anchor Timeframe = Daily for intraday context.
Split Buy and Sell CVD = On.
Profile Granularity = 100 to 200, Profile Position = Right, Width to taste.
Pivot Left and Right around 8 to 12 to start, then adapt.
Turn on Heatmap for a fast map of interest bands.
Bottom line
CVD tells you who is doing the lifting. The profile shows where they did it. Divergences tell you when effort stops paying. Put them together and you get a clear read on control, location, and timing for both trend and mean reversion.

Machine Learning Price Predictor: Ridge AR [Bitwardex]🔹Machine Learning Price Predictor: Ridge AR is a research-oriented indicator demonstrating the use of Regularized AutoRegression (Ridge AR) for short-term price forecasting.
The model combines autoregressive structure with Ridge regularization , providing stability under noisy or volatile market conditions.
The latest version introduces Bull and Bear signals , visually representing the current momentum phase and model direction directly on the chart.
Unlike traditional linear regression, Ridge AR minimizes overfitting, stabilizes coefficient dynamics, and enhances predictive consistency in correlated datasets.
The script plots:
Fit Line — in-sample fitted data;
Forecast Line — out-of-sample projection;
Trend Segments — color-coded bullish/bearish sections;
Bull/Bear Labels 🐂🐻 — dynamic visual signals showing directional bias.
Designed for researchers, students, and developers, this tool helps explore regularized time-series forecasting in Pine Script™.
🧩 Ridge AR Settings
Training Window — number of bars used for model training;
Forecast Horizon — forecast length (bars ahead);
AR Order — number of lags used as features;
Ridge Strength (λ) — regularization coefficient;
Damping Factor — exponential trend decay rate;
Trend Length — period for trend/volatility estimation;
Momentum Weight — strength of the recent move;
Mean Reversion — pullback intensity toward the mean.
🧮 Data Processing
Prefilter:
None — raw close price;
EMA — exponential smoothing;
SuperSmoother — Ehlers filter for noise reduction.
EMA Length, SuperSmoother Length — smoothing parameters.
🖥️ Display Settings
Update Mode:
Lock — static model;
Update Once Reached — rebuild after forecast horizon;
Continuous — update every bar.
Forecast Color — projection line color;
Bullish/Bearish Colors — colors for trend segments.
🐂🐻 Bull/Bear Signal System
The Bull/Bear Signal System adds directional visual cues to highlight local momentum shifts and model-based trend confirmation.
Bull (🐂) — appears when upward momentum is confirmed (momentum > 0) .
Displayed below the bar, colored with Bullish Color.
Bear (🐻) — appears when downward momentum is dominant (momentum < 0) .
Displayed above the bar, colored with Bearish Color.
Signals are generated during model recalculations or when the directional bias changes in Continuous mode.
These visual markers are analytical aids , not trading triggers.
🧠 Core Algorithmic Components
Regularized AutoRegression (Ridge AR):
Solves: (X′X+λI)−1X′y
to derive stable regression coefficients.
Matrix and Pseudoinverse Operations — implemented natively in Pine Script™.
Prefiltering (EMA / Ehlers SuperSmoother) — stabilizes noisy data.
Forecast Dynamics — integrates damping, momentum, and mean reversion.
Trend Visualization — color-coded bullish/bearish line segments.
Bull/Bear Signal Engine — visualizes real-time impulse direction.
📊 Applications
Academic and educational purposes;
Demonstration of Ridge Regression and AR models;

EMA × MOST CrossThe EMA × MOST Cross indicator combines the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) with the Moving Stop (MOST) system to identify early trend reversals and confirm trend continuation phases.
MOST acts as a dynamic trailing stop that adapts to price volatility, while EMA provides directional bias and short-term momentum confirmation.
A BUY signal is generated when EMA crosses above the MOST line, indicating a possible bullish reversal or trend continuation.
A SELL signal is triggered when EMA crosses below the MOST line, suggesting bearish continuation or reversal conditions.
The indicator colors bars according to the EMA–MOST relationship to visually represent trend strength:
🟩 Green tones → bullish bias (EMA and price above MOST)
🟥 Red tones → bearish bias (EMA and price below MOST)
🟦 Aqua → neutral phase or transition zone
How to use:
Works best on trending markets and mid-term timeframes (e.g., 1h, 4h, 1D).
Combine it with volume or structure-based confirmations for higher accuracy.
Use the built-in parameters to fine-tune sensitivity:
MOST MA length: adjusts the responsiveness of the MOST line.
MOST percent: defines the offset distance of the stop bands.
EMA length: defines the crossover sensitivity.
Updated settings:
Default MOST Length: 5
Default MOST Percent: 1.5%
Concept:
This script refines the traditional MOST logic by pairing it with an EMA cross mechanism, aiming to filter false reversals and improve entry timing. It’s designed for traders who prefer clear, visual cross-based trend confirmation while maintaining adjustable flexibility for different instruments.

Alongside session pivots, the script tracks daily highs and lows to provide a broader structural view of price. These pivots are stored and displayed on the chart with their appearance updating automatically when price interacts with them.
The system includes a unique tier-based visibility filter that maintains a clean chart by preventing duplicate or overlapping pivots. Recent daily pivots are cached and compared to session pivots and when two levels fall within a defined proximity, the redundant one is automatically hidden. This creates a clear hierarchy of daily and session levels, keeping the most relevant structure visible whilst removing noise.
All aspects of the daily pivot system are fully customizable, including the number of tracked pivots, color, style settings and how mitigated levels are handled. The caching and filtering logic ensures smooth performance and a visually organized workspace even as the data updates in real time.
Key Times
Allows up to five custom key time markers such as the Midnight Open, 6:00 AM or 10:00 AM.
Each marker can be fully customized with its own text, color, line style and thickness.
This makes it simple to visualize key reaction points that align with each traders timing model.
Higher Timeframe Candles
Displays higher timeframe candles such as 1H, 4H or Daily directly on the active chart to provide context without switching views.
Users can customize body, wick and border colors, along with adding optional trace lines for the open, close, high and low and can also show the countdown timers for remaining candle time.
Adjustable spacing, positioning and label visibility makes the display blend naturally with any trading setup.
This module helps traders connect multiple timeframes visually in a clean and intuitive way.
Watermark
Adds a customizable watermark with title, subtitle and symbol or timeframe information.
Every element can be adjusted for color, size, transparency, alignment and position.
The result is a polished, professional chart layout that adapts to the user's personal style.
Optimization and Design
ICT Essentials is built for performance, using cached arrays and lightweight calculations to maintain responsiveness on all timeframes.
Each feature can be toggled individually to suit the traders focus or system performance.
The script delivers a fluid, customizable and highly optimized trading experience designed to feel natural and effortless in day-to-day use.

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.

Magic Volume - Projected [MW]Magic Volume – Projected
This lower-pane volume tool estimates the full-bar volume before the bar closes by measuring the current bar’s elapsed time and the rate of incoming volume. It then contrasts that “expected volume” against typical activity and recent momentum to spotlight potential burst conditions (breakout/acceleration), color-codes the live volume stream, and annotates when the projected surge is likely bullish or bearish based on bar structure and recent highs/lows.
Settings
Projected / Expected Volume
Moving Average: EMA length used for volume baseline comparisons. (Default: 14)
Minimum Volume: Hard floor the bar’s raw volume must exceed to qualify as notable. (Default: 10,000)
Consecutive Volume Above 14 EMA: Count required for “sustained” high-volume context. (Default: 3)
Stochastic Volume Burst
Stochastic Length: Window for the Stochastic calculation on volume. (Default: 8)
Smoothing: Smoothing applied to Stochastic volume and its signal. (Default: 3)
Stochastic Volume Breakout Threshold: Level above which Stochastic volume is considered a breakout. (Default: 20)
Volume Bar Increase Amount: Multiplier the current bar’s volume must exceed vs. prior bar to be considered a “burst.” (Default: 1.618)
Plotted Items
Expected Volume (columns): Magenta columns projecting the full-bar volume from intrabar rate. Turns lime when a high expected-volume condition aligns with bullish bar structure; turns red under analogous bearish conditions.
Actual Volume (columns): Live volume columns, color-coded by state:
• Blue = baseline;
• Orange = “burst” (volume rising fast above prior × factor and above baseline);
• Yellow = “burst at breakout” (burst + Stochastic volume breakout);
• Light Blue = Stochastic breakout only.
Volume EMA (line): Yellow EMA for baseline comparison (default 14).
Calculations
Compute elapsed time in the current bar (ms → seconds) and convert the current bar’s accumulated volume into a rate (volume per second).
Project full-bar Expected Volume = (volume so far / seconds elapsed) × bar-seconds.
Compute Volume EMA (default 14) for baseline; derive Stochastic(volume, length) and smoothed signal for momentum.
Define “Burst” conditions:
• Volume > prior volume × Volume Bar Increase Amount;
• Volume > Minimum Volume;
• Volume > Volume EMA;
• Stochastic(volume) rising and/or above threshold.
Classify “Burst at Breakout” when Burst aligns with Stochastic crossover above the Breakout Threshold.
Classify Bullish/Bearish Expected Volume: if Expected Volume is ≥ 1.618 × prior bar volume and prior volume > Volume EMA, then:
• Bullish if bar is green with a rising low;
• Bearish if bar is red with a falling high.
Color-map actual volume columns by state; overlay Expected Volume columns (magenta) and paint conditional overlays (lime/red) when directional context is detected.
How to Use
Spot the Surge Early
When Expected Volume spikes well above typical (and especially above ~1.618× the prior bar) before the bar closes, it often precedes a volatile move. Use this to prepare entries with tight, structure-based risk (e.g., just beyond the current bar’s wick) and asymmetric targets.
Confirm with Momentum
Yellow/orange volume columns indicate burst/breakout behavior in the live tape. When this aligns with a lime (bullish) or red (bearish) Expected Volume column, the probability of follow-through improves—particularly if aligned with prevailing trend or key levels.
Context Matters
Combine with your preferred S/R or structure tools (e.g., order blocks, channels, VWAP) to avoid chasing into obvious supply/demand. The projected surge can mark both continuations and sharp reversals depending on location and broader context.
Alerts
High Expected Volume – Bullish: When projected volume surges and the price action meets bullish conditions (green body with rising low).
High Expected Volume – Bearish: When projected volume surges and the price action meets bearish conditions (red body with falling high).
Other Usage Notes and Limitations
Projected volume depends on intrabar pace; abrupt pauses/flushes can change the projection quickly, especially on very small timeframes.
Minimum Volume and EMA baselines help filter thin markets; adjust upward on illiquid symbols to reduce noise.
A rising projection does not pick direction on its own—directional coloring (lime/red) requires price-action confirmation; otherwise treat magenta projections as “heads-up” only.
As with any single indicator, use within a broader plan (risk management, structure, confluence) to mitigate false positives and improve selectivity.

Smart Money Toolkit - PD Engine Bias Map [KedArc Quant]📄 Description
Smart Money Toolkit is an advanced multi-layer Smart Money Concepts framework that automatically detects structure shifts, premium-discount zones, and institutional order flow.
It’s built around the PD Engine, which calculates the midpoint of the most recent market swing and dynamically determines BUY or SELL bias based on where current price trades relative to that equilibrium. This toolkit visualizes structure, order blocks, and bias context in one clean map — giving traders an institutional-grade lens without signal clutter.
💡 Why It’s Unique
* Not a mashup of open-source scripts.
Every module — CHoCH/BOS logic, order-block zone detection, PD bias engine, and structure mapping — is written from scratch to ensure clean, consistent behavior in Pine Script v6.
* Bias engine with true equilibrium logic: The 50% PD (Premium-Discount) zone adapts in real time to the latest swing, giving a live institutional price map.
* Visual precision: Minimalist premium/discount shading, structured labeling (HH, HL, LH, LL, CHoCH), and context tables for clarity.
* Performance-optimized: Handles multiple visual layers (FVG, OB, CHoCH, BOS) efficiently without repainting.
🎯 Entry and Exit Logic (Discretionary Framework)
This toolkit is not a signal generator; it’s a contextual trading framework that guides your decisions.
BUY Bias (Discount Zone)
* Price trades below PD Mid → Market is in *discount*.
* Wait for a bullish CHoCH or rejection from demand OB/FVG before entering long.
* Target 1 = PD Mid; Target 2 = next opposing OB/FVG.
SELL Bias (Premium Zone)
* Price trades above PD Mid → Market is in *premium*.
* Wait for a bearish CHoCH or rejection from supply OB/FVG before shorting.
* Target 1 = PD Mid; Target 2 = next opposing OB/FVG.
This sequence enforces the institutional concept:
> Bias → Structure Shift → Confirmation → Execution
