Cave Diving 3 Lines System
🤿 Cave Diving Dashboard - A Deep Dive into Market Structure
## The Cave Diving Analogy
Imagine you're a cave diver exploring underwater caverns. As you descend deeper, you encounter different layers of the cave system:
- **The Surface (Internal Levels)** - Where you currently are, constantly shifting with each breath
- **The First Chamber (De Novo Levels)** - Your last known safe position, recently established
- **Deep Caverns (External Levels)** - Ancient, untouched chambers deeper in the system
Just as a cave diver must constantly monitor their position relative to these reference points, traders must track price action against key structural levels.
---
## 🎯 Understanding the Three-Tiered System
### 📍 **INTERNAL LEVELS** (Current 15m Candle)
*Your real-time position in the market*
**Internal High** 🟡 - The highest point reached in the current unfinished 15-minute candle
**Internal Low** 🟢 - The lowest point reached in the current unfinished 15-minute candle
**Think of these as:**
- Your current depth while actively diving
- They update continuously as price moves
- Status shows "Updating" when actively changing, "Intact" when stable
- These are NOT trade levels—they're awareness zones
**Key Insight:** When Internal Low drops below De Novo Low, you're in **Situation A** (bearish pressure building)—the indicator highlights this with red coloring.
---
### 🎯 **DE NOVO LEVELS** (Previous Closed 15m Candle)
*Your most recent confirmed safe zone*
**De Novo High** 🔵 - The high of the last completed 15-minute candle
**De Novo Low** 🟣 - The low of the last completed 15-minute candle
**Etymology:** "De Novo" = Latin for "from new" or "anew"—these are freshly established reference points
**Think of these as:**
- The last solid ground you stood on
- Your most recent confirmed position
- The bridge between where you are (Internal) and where you've been (External)
**Status Tracking:**
- **⬆️ Upgrade** - Level moved favorably (Higher high for resistance, Higher low for support)
- **⬇️ Downgrade** - Level moved unfavorably (Lower high, Lower low)
- **＝ Same** - No structural change from previous candle
**Trading Significance:**
- Primary reference points for intraday structure
- Breaking De Novo levels often signals directional commitment
- Can merge with External Level 1 when they align (shown as "DN🟰Ext1")
---
### ⛽🤿 **EXTERNAL LEVELS** (Unmitigated Historical 15m Levels)
*Deep liquidity pools waiting to be discovered*
**External High 1 & 2** 🟢🔵 - The two most recent unmitigated 15m highs
**External Low 1 & 2** 🟠🌸 - The two most recent unmitigated 15m lows
**Think of these as:**
- Untouched chambers in the cave system
- Liquidity pools that smart money is targeting
- Levels that "remember" and attract price
**What Makes a Level "Unmitigated"?**
- **Highs**: Price has NOT yet traded through them (broken above)
- **Lows**: Price has NOT yet swept them (broken below)
- Once touched, they're "mitigated" and removed from tracking
- The indicator automatically maintains the two most recent unmitigated levels
**Why "External"?**
They exist outside your current candle structure—historical reference points that institutions use for:
- Stop loss placement
- Profit taking targets
- Liquidity hunting zones
---
## 🎨 Color Coding System
### HIGHS (Resistance/Targets) - Cool Colors
- 🔵 **Ext High 2** - Light Blue (Distant target)
- 🟢 **Ext High 1** - Lime Green (Primary target)
- 🔵 **De Novo High** - Cyan (Recent resistance)
- 🟡 **Internal High** - Lemon Yellow (Current ceiling)
### LOWS (Support/Stops) - Warm Colors
- 🟢 **Internal Low** - Lime (Current floor)
- 🟣 **De Novo Low** - Purple (Recent support)
- 🟠 **Ext Low 1** - Orange-Red (Primary stop zone)
- 🌸 **Ext Low 2** - Pink (Distant support)

## 🧭 The Cave Diving Mindset
**Never dive deeper than you can safely return from.**
In trading terms:
- Know your Internal position (real-time awareness)
- Respect your De Novo levels (recent structure)
- Hunt for External liquidity (where the targets are)
- Always have an exit plan (stops below Ext Lows, above Ext Highs)
The market, like a cave, has structure. This indicator illuminates that structure across three timeframes of reference, helping you navigate with precision rather than guessing in the dark.
---
## 🎓 Key Takeaways
1. **Internal** = Real-time, unfinished, awareness only
2. **De Novo** = Just confirmed, primary reference, updates every 15m
3. **External** = Historical, unmitigated, high-probability targets/stops
4. **Upgrades/Downgrades** = Trend signals
5. **DN🟰Ext1** = Structural alignment (tighter range)
6. **Situation A** = Bearish warning (Internal < De Novo Low)

Composite Fear & Greed IndexComposite Fear & Greed Index
This is an advanced, professional-grade sentiment analysis engine designed to quantify market psychology. Unlike standard oscillators that rely on a single metric, this script uses a weighted composite of four distinct technical components to generate a holistic "Fear & Greed" score.
It includes Multi-Timeframe (MTF) capabilities, proprietary FOMO/Panic detection logic, and Zero-Lag trend analysis.
1. Unique Mathematical Methodology
This script is not a simple overlay of existing indicators. It uses a Composite Normalization Engine to blend four distinct metrics into a single, bounded 0-100 oscillator.
The "Mashup" Problem Solved: Standard indicators like MACD are "unbounded" (they can go to infinity), while RSI is "bounded" (0-100). You cannot simply average them.
Our Solution: This script calculates the Z-Score of the MACD histogram relative to its historical deviation and normalizes it into a 0-100 percentile. This allows for a mathematically valid combination with RSI and Bollinger Bands.
The Component Logic:
Momentum (RSI): (Weight: 30%) Pure price velocity.
Volatility (Bollinger %B): (Weight: 25%) Relative position within volatility bands.
Trend Strength (Normalized MACD): (Weight: 25%) Uses the custom Z-Score logic described above.
Trend Integrity (ZLEMA): (Weight: 20%) We replaced the standard SMA with a custom Zero-Lag Exponential Moving Average (ZLEMA) algorithm. This removes the "lag" associated with traditional sentiment analysis, allowing the index to react to crypto volatility in real-time.
The Calculation: These raw values are weighted and smoothed to produce the final Index Value.
Greater than 80: Extreme Greed (High risk of reversal)
Less than 20: Extreme Fear (Potential accumulation zone)
2. Unique Features
A. FOMO & Panic Event Detection The script does not just track price; it tracks behavior.
FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out): Triggered when Price breaks the Upper Bollinger Band + RSI is Overbought + Volume spikes > 2.5x the average. This often marks local tops.
PANIC: Triggered when Price drops significantly in one bar + Volume spikes > 3.0x the average + RSI is Oversold. This often marks capitulation bottoms.
B. Divergence Detection The script automatically detects and plots Regular Bullish and Bearish divergences between Price and the Sentiment Index.
Bullish Divergence: Price makes a Lower Low, but Sentiment makes a Higher Low (indicating waning selling pressure).
Bearish Divergence: Price makes a Higher High, but Sentiment makes a Lower High (indicating waning buying pressure). Note: The script plots these signals precisely on the indicator line corresponding to the pivot point.
C. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Engine Users can view the "Daily" sentiment score while trading on a 5-minute or 15-minute chart. This allows scalpers to align their trades with the higher-timeframe market psychology.
3. Usage Guide
Step 1: Trend Alignment Look at the dashboard or the main line color. Green indicates Greed/Uptrend, Red indicates Fear/Downtrend.
Step 2: Extremes
Sell/Take Profit: When the Index crosses 80 (Extreme Greed) or a "FOMO" triangle appears.
Buy/Long: When the Index crosses 20 (Extreme Fear) or a "PANIC" triangle appears.
Step 3: Confirmation Use the Divergence Dots as confirmation. A "Panic" signal followed by a "Bullish Divergence" dot is a high-probability reversal setup.
Settings
Timeframe: Select the MTF resolution (default is Chart).
Weights: You can adjust the influence of RSI, MACD, BB, or Trend to fit your specific asset class.
Visuals: Fully customizable colors, table position, and toggle switches for shapes/backgrounds.

Elite Monday Range V3- ProfessionalElite Monday Range V3 - Advanced Institutional Bias & Analysis
Overview
The Elite Monday Range V3 is a high-performance decision-support tool designed for traders who utilize the "Weekly Open" and "Monday's Range" as their primary benchmark for the trading week. Unlike standard range indicators, this script employs an advanced Multi-Asset Analysis Engine to determine the weekly bias with institutional-grade precision.
It doesn't just draw lines; it analyzes Previous Week's Close (PWC), Monday's Candle Structures (Price Action), and Internal Liquidity to provide a definitive "Directional Bias" and "Confidence Score."
Key Features
Smart Multi-Asset Detection: Automatically detects if you are trading Forex, Crypto, or Indices and adjusts its internal logic and strategy suggestions accordingly.
Institutional Bias Engine: Calculates a Confidence Score (from -4 to +4) based on 4 critical criteria:
Price vs. Previous Week Close: Checks if the bulls or bears are maintaining momentum from the prior week.
Monday Candle Analysis: Automatically identifies Pin Bars (Liquidity Grabs) or Strong Engulfing movements.
Price vs. Monday Midpoint (Equilibrium): The ultimate pivot point for weekly trend direction.
Price vs. Weekly Open: Tracks the "true" opening sentiment.
Liquidity Hunt Signals (Judas Swing): Visual alerts for LIQ BUY and LIQ SELL when price sweeps Monday's extremes and returns inside the range—a classic sign of institutional manipulation before a trend.
Symmetric Expansion Levels: Projects +50%, +100%, -50%, and -100% extensions of the Monday range to identify high-probability Take Profit (TP) and reversal zones.
Dynamic Professional Dashboard: A sleek, real-time table on your chart that summarizes Asset Type, Weekly Bias, Candle Info, and the Confidence Score.
Force Overlay Technology: Ensures all lines and labels remain visible and crisp on the top layer, above candles and other indicators.
How to Trade with the Elite Dashboard
Check the "Net Weekly Bias": Look for STRONG BULL or STRONG BEAR.
Verify Confidence Score: A score of 3 or 4 (or -3/-4 for shorts) indicates high-probability conditions.
Identify Entry: If the Bias is "STRONG BULL," wait for a retest of the Monday Mid (MID) or Monday High (MON H).
Confirm with Liquidity: Look for a LIQ BUY signal near the Monday Low for the highest-quality "A+ Setup."
Target: Use the Expansion Levels (+50% / +100%) as your primary targets for the week.
Technical Settings
Lookback Weeks: Choose exactly how many historical weeks to display to keep your chart clean.
Customizable Colors: Fully adjustable colors for Monday ranges and expansion projections.
Line Width: User-defined thickness for professional visual clarity.
MacroTide Elasticity SystemThe MacroTide Elasticity System is a professional-grade technical analysis tool designed to identify potential trend exhaustions and reversals by modeling price action as an elastic band stretched from a volume-weighted baseline. Unlike standard oscillators (like RSI) that only look at price changes, MacroTide integrates Volume, Price Range, and Volatility to gauge the "energy" behind a move.
1. Concepts and Methodology
The core concept is Mean Reversion based on Volume-Weighted Elasticity. Markets tend to snap back to a value consensus (mean) after over-extension.
Volume-Weighted Baseline: We use a Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) rather than a simple SMA. This ensures that heavy-volume trading days pull the baseline closer to price, while low-volume drift allows the baseline to lag, accurately representing the "true" average cost.
Elasticity Physics: The oscillator calculates how far price has deviated from this VWMA baseline, measured in standard deviations. This creates a normalized "Elasticity Score" (0-100).
High Score (>80): Price is over-extended to the upside (Overbought) relative to volume support.
Low Score (<20): Price is over-extended to the downside (Oversold).
Institutional Absorption (Churn): The script detects specific bar anomalies where Volume is High but Price Range is Low. This pattern often indicates "Churn"—where institutions are absorbing supply or unloading positions without moving the price significantly.
2. Key Features
MacroTrend Detection: Visualizes the market's stretch limits.
Divergence Scanner: Automatically detects and labels Regular Bullish and Bearish divergences. This occurs when price makes a new extreme, but the Elasticity Oscillator fails to confirm it, signaling waning momentum.
Absorption Events: Highlights yellow "sun" markers on the oscillator when high-volume churn is detected, often preceding a breakout or reversal.
Dynamic Coloring: Candles and oscillator lines change color based on the slope of the elasticity (Green for rising momentum, Red for falling).
3. How to Use
Trend Reversals: Look for the oscillator to enter the Overbought (80) or Oversold (20) zones. A reversal signal (triangle marker) is generated when the oscillator crosses back out of these zones, indicating the "snap back" effect has begun.
Divergence Confirmation: Use the "DIV" labels as early warning signs. A Bullish Divergence in an oversold zone is a high-probability setup for a long entry.
Filtering Trends: The center line (50) acts as a trend filter. Above 50 indicates bullish bias; below 50 indicates bearish bias.
4. Settings & Customisation
Lookback Period: Default is 21 (Swing). Increase to 50 or 100 for Macro/Long-term analysis.
StdDev Multiplier: Adjusts the sensitivity of the bands. Higher values (e.g., 2.5 or 3.0) are better for volatile assets like Crypto.
Absorption Volume Factor: Threshold for detecting churn. Default is 1.5x average volume.
Disclaimer: This tool is for informational purposes only. Past performance (divergences/signals) does not guarantee future results. Always manage risk effectively.
Statistical Deviation per AssetINDICATOR: STATISTICAL DEVIATION PER ASSET (SDPA)
1. Overview
The Statistical Deviation per Asset (SDPA) is a quantitative analysis tool designed to measure the strength and exhaustion of price movements. Unlike standard oscillators (like RSI ), the SDPA calculates the actual percentage deviation from the most recent pivot point (High or Low) and compares it against historical performance averages specific to each asset.
---
2. Core Logic & Calculation
The script operates on a Mean Reversion principle. It assumes that every asset (Gold, Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) has a unique "volatility signature" depending on the timeframe.
* Dynamic Pivot Detection : The indicator identifies recent Swing Highs and Swing Lows using an adaptive lookback period.
* Real-Time Return Calculation : Once a pivot is confirmed, the script calculates the real-time percentage gain (from a Low) or loss (from a High).
* Zero-Indexed Histogram : This return is plotted as an oscillator centered around a Zero Line , representing the current trend's progress since the last reversal.
---
3. Adaptive Intelligence (Multi-Asset & Multi-TF)
The SDPA is pre-loaded with a statistical database. It automatically adjusts its sensitivity and thresholds based on:
1. The Selected Asset : Whether trading XAUUSD , Bitcoin , or Solana , the deviation thresholds adapt to the specific volatility of that instrument.
2. The Timeframe (TF) : The calculation period ( period ) and performance targets ( hausse_perf / baisse_perf ) change dynamically. For example, a 1-minute scalping setup uses a longer lookback (200) compared to a Daily swing setup (10).
---
4. Visual Anatomy
The interface is designed for instant "at-a-glance" interpretation:
* The Histogram :
* Green : Price is trending up since the last Swing Low .
* Red : Price is trending down since the last Swing High .
* Threshold Lines (The Statistical Averages) :
* Thick Line (60% Opacity) : Represents the Average Historical Deviation . When the histogram hits this line, the move is considered "statistically mature."
* Thin Line (70% Opacity) : Represents the Strong Deviation Zone (1.5x the average), indicating extreme momentum or potential exhaustion.
* Background Highlighting : The chart background colors automatically when the price exceeds historical averages, signaling a High-Probability Reversal Zone .
---
5. How to Trade with SDPA
* Trend Maturity : If the histogram exceeds the Bullish Average (Green line), the current move has reached its typical historical limit. Traders should look for take-profit opportunities or wait for a reversal.
* Impulse Strength : A rapid move from the Zero Line toward the thresholds confirms strong institutional interest.
* Mean Reversion : When the histogram reaches the Strong Zone (1.5x), the price is "overextended" statistically, offering a high reward-to-risk ratio for counter-trend setups.
---
6. Technical Parameters
* Asset Choice : Dropdown menu to select the specific asset.
* Colors : Customizable Bullish and Bearish colors to match any UI theme.
* Precision : Set to 4 decimal places to ensure accuracy across all asset types.
Liquidity ZonesLiquidity Zones
Liquidity Zones is a price-action–based indicator designed to identify high-probability support and resistance areas where liquidity has historically accumulated.
Instead of drawing single lines, the script builds dynamic price zones based on repeated pivot reactions validated by volume, helping traders focus on meaningful levels rather than noise.
How It Works
Pivot Detection
The indicator scans historical price data for pivot highs and pivot lows using a fixed pivot strength.
Each pivot represents a potential liquidity interaction point.
Volume Qualification
A pivot is only considered valid if the volume at the pivot bar exceeds:
Volume SMA × Sensitivity
This filters out weak or low-participation levels and keeps zones formed during strong market interest.
Zone Construction
Nearby pivots are grouped into a single zone if their price difference stays within an ATR-based threshold.
Each time price reacts within this threshold, the zone’s touch count increases.
Once the minimum number of touches is reached, a liquidity zone is drawn and extended to the right.
Adaptive Zone Expansion
As new qualifying pivots appear, zones automatically expand to reflect the true liquidity range instead of staying static.
Dynamic Zone Coloring
Zones update their color in real time based on price position:
Green (Support) → Price is above the zone
Red (Resistance) → Price is below the zone
Gray (In-Zone) → Price is trading inside the zone
This allows instant visual feedback on whether a level is acting as support, resistance, or an active liquidity area.
Settings Overview
Bars to Apply
Controls how much historical data is scanned for liquidity zones.
Volume Sensitivity

Styling Options
Fully customizable colors and transparency for support, resistance, and in-zone states.
Best Use Cases
Identifying high-liquidity support and resistance zones
Planning entries, exits, and stop placement
Combining with trend-following or momentum indicators

Version : 2.1.0
Pine Script : v6
Compatibility : TradingView Free/Pro/Premium
Gold Sniper MGC1! - M30 Precision vPOCThis Pine Script, titled "Gold Sniper MGC1! - M30 Precision vPOC," is a high-precision intraday trading tool designed specifically for Micro Gold (MGC1!) futures. It integrates Market Profile and Volume Profile logic to identify key institutional levels across various trading sessions.
Core Functionality
The script identifies and plots the Volume Point of Control (vPOC)—the price level with the highest traded volume—for specific time windows:
P.vPOC (Previous vPOC): Calculated using a Daily VWAP sync to align perfectly with institutional data from the previous day.
vPOC Today: Tracks the developing Point of Control for the current global session (18:00 - 17:00).
Killzone vPOCs: Specifically isolates the highest volume price levels for the Asia (02h-08h), London (08h-14h), and New York (14h-17h) sessions.
Key Technical Features
Institutional Alignment: By utilizing request.security and hl2 median price calculations on a 30-minute basis, the script filters out market noise and aligns with the structural levels used by "Smart Money".
Dynamic Labels (Vignettes): Each level is projected to the right of the price action with a color-coded label. These labels dynamically display both the Level Name and the Exact Price (to two decimal places), facilitating rapid order entry.
Visual Hierarchy:
Black (Solid): Previous Day's Value (P.vPOC).
White (Dotted): Current Day's Developing Value.
Gold/Cyan/Orange: Specific Killzone session values.
Strategic Application
This script serves as the "Map" for the Gold Sniper MGC1! strategy. Traders use these levels to identify Liquidity Sweeps or Market Structure Shifts (MSS). When the price interacts with these vPOCs, it often signals institutional rejection or acceptance, providing high-probability entry points for intraday "Sniper" setups.
HMA Pivot Buy/Sell (only) + AlertsThis Pine Script is a lightweight indicator that plots only HMA-based pivot Buy/Sell signals and provides alert conditions for them.
What it does
Calculates a Hull Moving Average (HMA) using either:
a dynamic length based on the chart timeframe, or
a custom user-defined length.
Detects HMA pivot points (local turning points):
Buy signal when the HMA forms a local minimum (trend turns up).
Sell signal when the HMA forms a local maximum (trend turns down).
Optionally plots the HMA line and prints only the Buy/Sell markers on the chart (no extra arrows/emoji/labels from other systems).
Adds TradingView alerts for Buy, Sell, and combined Buy/Sell events.
Signal logic
Buy (HMA Pivot Low) triggers when:
HMA > HMA and HMA < HMA
Meaning: the HMA was falling, formed a bottom, and has started rising.
Sell (HMA Pivot High) triggers when:
HMA < HMA and HMA > HMA
Meaning: the HMA was rising, formed a top, and has started falling.
Inputs
Source: price source used to compute HMA (default: close).
Use Custom HMA Length: enables manual override.
Custom HMA Length: manual HMA period (default: 55).
Alerts: only on bar close:
If enabled, alerts fire only after the bar closes (confirmed signals).
If disabled, alerts can fire intrabar (faster but less stable).
Draw signal on pivot bar (offset -1):
If enabled, markers are drawn on the pivot bar (one bar back) using offset = -1.
If disabled, markers are drawn on the confirmation bar (no offset).
Show HMA line: toggles display of the HMA line.
Alerts available
BUY (HMA Pivot) — triggers on Buy signal.
SELL (HMA Pivot) — triggers on Sell signal.
BUY/SELL (HMA Pivot) — triggers on either Buy or Sell.
Each alert message includes ticker, timeframe, and close price via placeholders:
{{ticker}}, {{interval}}, {{close}}.
Liquidity Void and Repair EngineLiquidity Void & Repair Engine
OVERVIEW
The Liquidity Void & Repair Engine is a high-fidelity institutional order flow tool designed to identify and track "Market Imbalances" or "Fair Value Gaps" (FVG). Unlike standard gap indicators that clutter the chart with every minor price jump, this engine uses Volatility-Adjusted Range Mapping to isolate high-conviction voids where price moved so rapidly that liquidity was left "unfilled."
The standout feature of this tool is its Active Repair Logic. The engine doesn't just draw static boxes; it monitors price action in real-time to determine when an imbalance has been "healed" by subsequent trading volume, providing a dynamic look at where the market has "unfinished business."
TECHNICAL LOGIC & ORIGINALITY
This script is published Open Source to contribute to the Pine Script community’s understanding of dynamic object management and order flow visualization.
ATR-Relative Filtering: To ensure only significant voids are plotted, the script uses a user-defined ATR (Average True Range) multiplier. This filters out market noise and focuses on institutional "impulse" moves.
Dynamic Box Management: Utilizing the Pine Script box array system, the script manages memory efficiently by updating existing objects rather than creating redundant ones.
The "Repair" Algorithm: The script tracks the high and low of every active void. When price action fully traverses the coordinates of a void, the script "seals" the box, visually marking the moment of liquidity equilibrium.
HOW TO USE
1. Identifying the "Magnet" (The Void)
When price moves aggressively, it leaves a "hole" in the auction.
Bullish Voids (Green): These represent areas where price surged so fast that buyers may still have unfilled orders sitting below. These act as Magnets for pullbacks.
Bearish Voids (Red): These represent areas where price plummeted, leaving a vacuum of selling pressure. These act as Magnets for relief rallies.
2. Trading the "Repair" Process
The Engine tracks how the market "repairs" these holes:
Partial Fill: If price enters a box but doesn't cross it, the "Magnet" is still active.
Full Repair: When a box is "sealed" (stops extending right), it indicates the imbalance is gone. If price "Seals" a green box and then bounces, it confirms the zone as Valid Institutional Support.
3. Confluence with the Trend
Continuation: In a strong uptrend, look for price to drop into a Green Bullish Void and find support. This is often the "Golden Entry" for trend followers.
Reversal Confirmation: If price ignores a Red Bearish Void and blasts right through it (sealing it instantly), it signals a massive shift in market regime and extreme bullish conviction.
USER SETTINGS
Lookback Period: How far back the engine searches for un-repaired gaps.
Min Gap Size (ATR %): Increase this to see only the "Major" institutional gaps; decrease it for a more granular intraday look.
Visual Styles: Fully customizable colors and transparency to match any chart theme (Dark/Light).

AI Reversal Signals Custom [wjdtks255]📊 Indicator Overview: AI Reversal Signals Custom
This indicator is a comprehensive trend-following and reversal detection tool. It combines the long-term trend bias of a 200 EMA with highly sensitive RSI-based reversal signals and momentum visualization. It is designed to capture market bottoms and tops by identifying exhaustion points in price action.
Key Features
200 EMA (Trend Filter): A gold line representing the long-term institutional trend. It helps traders distinguish between "buying the dip" and "catching a falling knife."
Reversal Buy/Sell Labels: Real-time signals that appear when the market recovers from extreme overbought or oversold conditions.
Dynamic Background Clouds: Visual indicators of trend strength changes, highlighting potential entry zones.
Momentum Histogram: Internal calculations mimic the "Bottom Bars" seen in professional suites to track the velocity of price movement.
📈 Trading Strategy (How to Trade)
1. High-Probability Long Setup (Buy)
Trend Confirmation: Price should ideally be trading above the 200 EMA for the highest success rate.
Signal: Wait for the "BUY" label to appear below the candle.
Momentum: Confirm with the Light Green background or histogram shift indicating recovery.
Entry: Enter on the close of the signal candle.
2. High-Probability Short Setup (Sell)
Trend Confirmation: Price should ideally be trading below the 200 EMA.
Signal: Wait for the "SELL" label to appear above the candle.
Momentum: Confirm with the Red background or histogram fading from green to red.
Entry: Enter on the close of the signal candle.
3. Risk Management
Stop Loss: Place your Stop Loss slightly below the recent swing low for Buy orders, or above the recent swing high for Sell orders.
Take Profit: Exit when the price reaches a major support/resistance level or when an opposing signal appears.
💡 Professional Tip
For the best results, use this indicator on the 15-minute or 1-hour timeframes. The most powerful "Ultimate Reversal" signals occur when there is a Bullish Divergence (Price making lower lows while the RSI makes higher lows) followed by a confirmed "BUY" label.

Strat Structure Engine 3-F2 Tiered Strat Structure Engine – 3→F2 Tiered Dashboard
Overview
The Strat Structure Engine – 3→F2 Tiered Dashboard is a structure-focused indicator built on The Strat methodology, designed to identify, score, and tier high-quality 3 → Failed 2 (3→F2) structural failures in real time.
Rather than treating all Failed 2s equally, this script evaluates structure strength, volatility, volume participation, and candle quality, producing a tiered signal system that helps traders prioritize only the most meaningful setups.
This indicator is intended for traders who want objective structure validation, not subjective pattern guessing.
Core Concepts
This script focuses on three-bar structure transitions, specifically:
3 → Failed 2 (3→F2)
Supporting context via 3→1 and 1→3 structural sequences
Optional Inside Bar detection for compression awareness
The primary edge comes from grading the quality of the 3→F2, not merely detecting it.
3→F2 Tiered Scoring System
When a confirmed 3-bar is followed by a strict Failed 2, the script assigns a numeric score (0–8) based on four objective components:
1. Three-Bar Structure Quality
Measured using ATR-based range expansion:
Large expansion relative to ATR receives higher scores
Ensures the setup originates from meaningful volatility, not noise
2. Failed 2 Close Quality
Evaluates where price closes relative to the midpoint of the prior 3-bar:
Strong closes through the midpoint score higher
Weak or indecisive closes are downgraded
3. Body Dominance
Measures the body-to-range ratio of the Failed 2 candle:
Large, decisive bodies indicate real participation
Wicks and indecision reduce the score
4. Relative Volume Confirmation
Compares current volume against a moving average baseline:
Elevated volume confirms acceptance
Low volume reduces conviction
Tier Classification
Based on the total score, each valid 3→F2 is classified into a tier:
A+ Tier → Exceptional structure, volatility, and participation
A Tier → High-quality, trade-worthy setup
B Tier → Valid but lower-confidence structure
Below Threshold → Ignored (filtered out)
Only setups meeting a minimum quality threshold are labeled, helping reduce chart clutter and overtrading.
Visual & Dashboard Features
Clear directional labels plotted above or below bars
Tier designation and score display (e.g., 6/8)
Configurable toggles for:
Failed 2 labels
3→1 and 1→3 sequence labels
Inside Bar labels
3→F2 tier labels
Designed to work cleanly across all timeframes and instruments
Intended Use
This indicator is best used as:
A structure qualification layer, not a standalone entry trigger
A tool to rank setups, not force trades
Confirmation alongside:
Key levels (VWAP, Value Area, prior highs/lows)
Order flow or delta tools
Session context (RTH, Globex, IB)
What This Indicator Is Not
Not a prediction tool
Not a signal that guarantees outcome
Not a replacement for risk management
It objectively answers one question only:
“Is this 3→Failed 2 structurally strong enough to matter?”
Precision Trendlines - Relevant Current TFPrecision Structural Trendlines (Current TF)
Overview
The Precision Structural Trendlines indicator is a high-performance price action tool designed for traders who rely on market structure and trend convergence. Unlike standard trendline scripts that clutter the chart with every possible connection, this indicator strictly follows professional structural rules—connecting Lower Highs for resistance and Higher Lows for support.
Key Features
Structural Integrity: The engine ensures that resistance lines are only drawn during bearish sequences (Lower Highs) and support lines during bullish sequences (Higher Lows), aligning with core Price Action principles.
Dynamic Relevance Filter: Solve the "web of lines" problem. By default, the script only shows trendlines that are currently relevant to price. As price moves away from old trends, they fade out, keeping your workspace clean.
Zero Drift Synchronization: Built using absolute time-anchoring (xloc.bar_time), ensuring that trendlines stay perfectly "glued" to the candle wicks regardless of how much you scroll or zoom.
Customizable Aesthetics: Choose between Random Dark Colors to easily distinguish overlapping trends or a Static Color for a unified look. Global width controls allow for instant visibility adjustments.
How to Use
Trend Confirmation: Use the Minimum Points setting. Set it to 2 for aggressive, early trend detection, or 3 to only see lines that have been validated by multiple touches.
Major vs. Minor Swings: Adjust the Pivot Strength. A value of 30 (default) captures significant intraday turns, while 20+ is ideal for identifying major swing structure.
Relevance Buffer: Tune the Price Buffer % to determine how close price must be to a historical trendline before it reappears on your chart.
Settings Breakdown
Minimum Points: Number of pivot points required to anchor a line.
Pivot Strength: The "look-left/look-right" requirement to confirm a peak or valley.
Validation Tolerance: The vertical buffer allowed for a 3rd point to "hit" the trendline.
Show Relevant Only: Toggles the visibility filter (highly recommended for high-volume traders).
RSI Monitor (High/Low) + MTF & Time FilterDual-Source RSI: Calculates RSI on the candle High (to detect selling pressure/overbought) and Candle Low (to detect buying pressure/oversold) rather than just the Close.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Dashboard: An on-screen table displays the Real-Time RSI High and Low values for your current chart plus two user-defined higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H).
Session-Based Alerts: A built-in time filter restricts alerts to a specific trading window (e.g., 09:30–16:00), effectively blocking signals during low-volume overnight sessions.
Independent Alert Timeframe: You can configure alerts to monitor a specific timeframe (e.g., 60-min) regardless of the timeframe you are currently viewing.
Real-Time Execution: Alerts trigger immediately when levels are crossed (no bar-close confirmation required), ensuring you catch moves as they happen.
Trinity Swing Trading Buy and SellThis is a simple little Heiken Ashi MA + ADX & MACD trend-following trading system designed to capture medium- to longer-term moves while filtering out noise and weak trends. It combines modified Heiken Ashi candles (for smoother trend detection) with a moving average alignment, plus optional confirmation from ADX (trend strength) and MACD (momentum).
In practice, the indicator works well on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, daily) where trends are more sustained. It performs best in trending markets and naturally avoids choppy/range-bound conditions thanks to the ADX filter (requiring ADX > 20 by default). All key components are fully customizable, so you can disable filters or adjust parameters to suit different instruments (stocks, forex, crypto, futures).
Default settings are:
16 HMA
8,17,9 MACD
15,20 ADX
Recommend to add an additional longer term EMA like 200 for long term trend confirmation.
Adjust inputs in the settings panel as needed:
Toggle MA, ADX, or MACD filters on/off.
Change MA type/length, MACD parameters, ADX threshold
- Use the visual blue diamonds (below bars) for long entries and purple diamonds (above bars) for short entries as confirmation of signals.
- Set alerts on the "Buy Alert" and "Sell Alert" conditions if you want real-time notifications.
This setup gives you a complete, rule-based system that avoids emotional trading and repetitive entries, making it suitable for both backtesting and live trading with proper risk management.

## What This Indicator Does
The **Unmitigated MTF High Low v2.0** tracks unmitigated (untouch) high and low levels across multiple timeframes, helping you identify key support and resistance zones that the market hasn't revisited yet. Think of it as a sophisticated memory system for price action - it remembers where price has been, and more importantly, where it *hasn't been back to*.
### Why "Unmitigated" Matters
In futures trading, especially on instruments like NQ and ES, the market has a tendency to revisit levels where liquidity was left behind. An "unmitigated" level is one that hasn't been touched since it was formed. These levels often act as magnets for price, and understanding their age and proximity gives you a significant edge in:
- **Entry timing** - Waiting for price to approach tested levels
- **Exit planning** - Taking profits before ancient resistance/support
- **Risk management** - Avoiding entries when approaching multiple old levels
- **Liquidity mapping** - Visualizing where orders likely cluster
---
## Core Concepts
### 1. **Sessions & Age**
The indicator uses **New York trading sessions** (6:00 PM to 5:59 PM NY time) as the primary time measurement. This aligns with how futures markets naturally segment their activity.
**Age Categories:**
- 🟢 **New (0-1 sessions)** - Fresh levels, recently formed
- 🟡 **Medium (2-3 sessions)** - Tested by time, gaining significance
- 🔴 **Old (4-6 sessions)** - Highly significant, survived multiple days
- 🟣 **Ancient (7+ sessions)** - Extreme significance, major support/resistance
The longer a level remains unmitigated, the more significant it becomes. Think of it like compound interest - time adds weight to these zones.
### 2. **Multi-Timeframe Tracking**
You can set the indicator to track high/low levels from any timeframe (default is 15 minutes). This means you're watching for unmitigated 15-minute highs and lows while trading on, say, a 1-minute or 5-minute chart.
**Why this matters:**
- Higher timeframe levels have more weight
- You can see multiple timeframe structure simultaneously
- Helps you avoid fighting larger timeframe momentum
### 3. **Mitigation**
A level becomes "mitigated" (deactivated) when price touches it:
- **High levels** are mitigated when price reaches or exceeds them
- **Low levels** are mitigated when price reaches or goes below them
Once mitigated, the level disappears from view. The indicator only shows you the untouch levels that still matter.

## The Cave Diving Framework
This indicator is designed around the **Cave Diving Trading Framework** - a psychological and technical approach that maps cave diving safety protocols to futures trading risk management.
### 🤿 The Core Metaphor
**Cave diving has clear danger zones based on depth and overhead environment. Your trading should too.**
#### Shallow Water (New Levels, 0-1 Sessions)
- **Light**: Bright colors (bright red highs, bright green lows)
- **Psychology**: Fresh territory, recently tested
- **Trading**: Be aware but not overly concerned
- **Cave Diving Parallel**: You can see the surface, easy exit
#### Penetration Depth (Medium Levels, 2-3 Sessions)
- **Light**: Medium intensity colors
- **Psychology**: Building significance, market memory forming
- **Trading**: Start respecting these levels for entries/exits
- **Cave Diving Parallel**: Deeper in, need to track your line back
#### Deep Dive Zone (Old Levels, 4-6 Sessions)
- **Light**: Dark colors (deep maroon, dark blue)
- **Psychology**: Highly tested support/resistance
- **Trading**: Major decision points, plan accordingly
- **Cave Diving Parallel**: Significant overhead, careful navigation required
#### Overhead Environment (Ancient Levels, 7+ Sessions)
- **Light**: Very dark, purple/deep teal
- **Psychology**: Extreme caution required, major liquidity zones
- **Trading**: These are your "turn back" signals - don't fight ancient levels
- **Cave Diving Parallel**: Maximum danger, no room for error
### 🎯 The Proximity Alert System
Just like a cave diver's depth gauge that warns at critical thresholds, the proximity alerts (⚠️) tell you when you're entering a danger zone. When price gets within your configured threshold (default 5 points), the indicator:
- Highlights the level in **yellow** on the chart
- Shows **⚠️** in the table
- Signals: "You're entering a high-significance zone - adjust your position accordingly"
This prevents the trading equivalent of going deeper into a cave without checking your air supply.
---
## How to Use It for Trading
### 🎯 Entry Strategies
**1. The "Bounce Setup" (Mean Reversion)**
- Wait for price to approach an old or ancient unmitigated level
- Look for confluence: multiple levels nearby, bands narrowing
- Enter when price shows rejection (reversal candle patterns)
- **Example**: Price drops to a 6-session-old low, shows bullish engulfing → Long entry
**2. The "Break and Retest" (Trend Following)**
- Wait for price to break through an unmitigated level (mitigates it)
- Enter on the retest of the newly broken level
- **Example**: Price breaks above 4-session-old high → Wait for pullback to that level → Long entry
**3. The "Tunnel Trade" (Range Trading)**
- When bands are active, trade the range between 1st-2nd levels
- Short near upper band resistance, long near lower band support
- Exit at opposite side or when bands break
### 🚨 Risk Management Rules
**The Ancient Level Rule**
> Never fight ancient levels (7+ sessions). If you're long and approaching an ancient high, take profits. If you're short and approaching an ancient low, take profits.
These levels have survived a full trading week without being touched - there's likely significant liquidity and institutional interest there.
**The Proximity Exit Rule**
> When you see ⚠️ proximity alerts on multiple levels above/below your position, tighten stops or scale out.
This is your "overhead environment" warning. You're in dangerous territory.
**The New Level Filter**
> Be cautious taking positions based solely on new levels (0-1 sessions). Wait for them to age or combine with other confluence.
Fresh levels haven't been tested by time. They're like unconfirmed support/resistance.
### 📊 Reading Market Structure
**Bullish Structure (🟢 in status row)**
- Unmitigated lows are aging and holding
- Price respecting the lower band
- Old lows below acting as strong support
- **Bias**: Look for long entries at lower levels
**Bearish Structure (🔴 in status row)**
- Unmitigated highs are aging and holding
- Price respecting the upper band
- Old highs above acting as strong resistance
- **Bias**: Look for short entries at higher levels
**The Tunnel Compression**
- When the Δ (delta) in the status row is small, levels are tight
- This often precedes a breakout
- **Trading**: Wait for breakout direction, then trade the break
### 🔄 Strat Integration
The indicator shows Strat patterns in the status row:
- **1** - Inside bar (consolidation)
- **2U** - Broke high only (bullish)
- **2D** - Broke low only (bearish)
- **3** - Broke both (wide range, volatility)
Use these with the unmitigated levels:
- **2U near old high** → Potential resistance, watch for rejection
- **2D near old low** → Potential support, watch for bounce
- **3 pattern** → High volatility, respect wider stops

---
## Best Practices
### 🎯 Position Management
**1. Scaling In Near Old Levels**
```
Price approaching 5-session-old low:
- First position: 30% size at proximity alert (⚠️)
- Second position: 40% size at exact level
- Third position: 30% size if it shows strong rejection
```
**2. Scaling Out Near Ancient Levels**
```
Holding long position, approaching 8-session-old high:
- Exit 50% at proximity alert (⚠️)
- Exit 30% at exact level
- Trail stop on remaining 20%
```
### 🧠 Trading Psychology Integration
Drawing from principles in *The Mountain Is You*, this indicator helps you:
**1. Recognize Self-Sabotage Patterns**
- **The Premature Entry**: Entering before price reaches your planned level
- **Solution**: Set alerts at unmitigated levels, wait for proximity warnings
- **The Profit-Taking Problem**: Exiting too early from fear
- **Solution**: Identify the next unmitigated level and commit to holding until proximity alert
- **The Loss Holding**: Refusing to exit losing trades
- **Solution**: When price breaks through and mitigates your entry level, it's telling you the structure changed
**2. Building Better Habits**
The color-coded age system trains your brain to:
- Respect levels that have proven themselves over time
- Distinguish between noise (new levels) and structure (old levels)
- Make decisions based on objective data, not fear or greed
**3. Emotional Regulation**
The proximity alerts serve as:
- **Circuit breakers** - Forcing you to re-evaluate before dangerous zones
- **Permission to act** - Giving you objective signals to exit without second-guessing
- **Validation** - Confirming when you're in alignment with market structure
### 📝 Pre-Market Routine
**Daily Setup Checklist:**
1. ✅ Identify the 3 nearest unmitigated highs above current price
2. ✅ Identify the 3 nearest unmitigated lows below current price
3. ✅ Note which are ancient (7+) - these are your "no-go" zones
4. ✅ Check the tunnel width (Δ in status row) - tight or wide?
5. ✅ Set alerts at the 1st high and 1st low for proximity warnings
6. ✅ Plan: "If we go up, I exit at ___. If we go down, I enter at ___."
### 🔄 Timeframe Confluence
**Multi-Timeframe Strategy:**
Run the indicator on **three instances**:
- **15-minute** (short-term structure)
- **1-hour** (intermediate structure)
- **4-hour** (major structure)
**Strong Setup**: When all three timeframes show unmitigated levels converging at the same price zone.
**Example:**
- 15m: Old low at 21,400
- 1H: Ancient low at 21,398
- 4H: Ancient low at 21,395
- **Result**: 21,395-21,400 is a monster support zone
### ⚠️ What This Indicator Doesn't Do
**Not a Crystal Ball**
- It doesn't predict where price will go
- It shows you where price *hasn't been* and how long it's been avoided
- The trading decisions are still yours
**Not an Entry Signal Generator**
- It provides context and structure
- You need to combine it with your entry methodology (price action, indicators, order flow, etc.)
**Not Foolproof**
- Ancient levels get broken
- Proximity alerts can trigger early in strong trends
- The market doesn't "owe" you a reversal at any level

## Common Scenarios
### Scenario 1: "Level Cluster Ahead"
**Situation**: You're long at 21,400. The table shows:
- 1st High: 21,425 (2 sessions old)
- 2nd High: 21,428 (3 sessions old)
- 3rd High: 21,435 (6 sessions old)
**Interpretation**: There's a resistance cluster just 25-35 points away. The 6-session-old level is particularly significant.
**Action**:
- Set first profit target at 21,420 (before the cluster)
- Set second target at 21,426 (between 1st and 2nd)
- Trail remaining position, but be ready to exit on rejection at 21,435
**Cave Diving Analogy**: You're approaching an overhead section with limited clearance. Lighten your load (reduce position) before entering.
---
### Scenario 2: "Ancient Level Approaches"
**Situation**: The market is grinding higher. You see ⚠️ appear next to a 9-session-old high at 21,500.
**Interpretation**: This level has survived over a week without being touched. Massive potential liquidity zone.
**Action**:
- If long, this is your absolute exit zone. Take profits before or at level.
- If looking to short, wait for clear rejection (price taps and reverses)
- Don't try to buy the breakout until it clearly breaks and retests
**Cave Diving Analogy**: Your dive computer is beeping - you've reached your planned turn-back depth. No matter how interesting it looks ahead, honor your plan.
---
### Scenario 3: "Mitigated Levels Create New Structure"
**Situation**: Price breaks and mitigates the 1st High. The previous 2nd High becomes the new 1st High.
**Interpretation**: The structure just shifted. What was the 2nd level is now most relevant.
**Action**:
- Watch how price reacts to the newly-mitigated level
- If it holds below (acts as resistance), bearish
- If it reclaims and holds above (acts as support), bullish
- The NEW 1st High is your next target/resistance
**Cave Diving Analogy**: You've passed through a restriction - the cave layout ahead is different now. Update your mental map.
---
### Scenario 4: "Tight Tunnel, Upcoming Breakout"
**Situation**: The Δ in the status row shows 3.25 points (very tight). Bands are converging.
**Interpretation**: Price is consolidating between very close unmitigated levels. Breakout likely.
**Action**:
- Don't try to predict direction
- Set alerts above 1st High and below 1st Low
- When break occurs, trade the retest
- Expect volatility - use wider stops
**Cave Diving Analogy**: You're in a narrow passage. Movement will be sudden and directional once it starts.
---
### Scenario 5: "Imbalanced Structure"
**Situation**: The statistics row shows "📊 22↑ / 7↓"
**Interpretation**: There are many more unmitigated highs than lows. This suggests:
- Price has been declining (hitting lows, leaving highs behind)
- Potential bullish reversal zone (lots of overhead supply mitigated)
- Or continued bearish structure (resistance everywhere above)
**Action**:
- Look at the age of those 22 highs
- If mostly new (0-2 sessions): Just a recent downmove, not significant yet
- If many old/ancient: Strong overhead resistance, be cautious on longs
- Compare to price action: Is price respecting the remaining lows?
**Cave Diving Analogy**: You've swam deeper than your starting point - most of your markers are above you now. Are you planning the ascent or going deeper?

## Final Thoughts: The Philosophy
This indicator is built on a simple but powerful principle: **The market has memory, and that memory has weight.**
Every unmitigated level represents:
- Liquidity left behind
- Orders waiting to be filled
- Institutional interest potentially parked
- Psychological significance for participants
The longer a level remains unmitigated, the more "charged" it becomes. When price finally revisits it, something significant usually happens - either a strong reversal or a definitive break.
Your job as a trader isn't to predict which outcome will occur. Your job is to:
1. **Recognize** when you're approaching these charged zones
2. **Respect** them by adjusting position size and risk
3. **React** appropriately based on how price behaves at them
4. **Remember** that ancient levels (like ancient wisdom) deserve extra reverence
The Cave Diving Framework embedded in this indicator serves as a constant reminder: Trading, like cave diving, requires rigorous respect for environmental hazards, meticulous planning, and the discipline to turn back when your limits are reached.
**Every proximity alert is the market asking you**: *"Do you really want to go deeper?"*
Sometimes the answer is yes - when your setup, confluence, and risk management all align.
Often, the answer should be no - and that's the trader avoiding the accident that would have happened to the gambler.

### 🎯 Quick Reference Card
**Color System:**
- 🟢 Bright colors = New (0-1 sessions) = Shallow water
- 🟡 Medium colors = Medium (2-3 sessions) = Penetration depth
- 🔴 Dark colors = Old (4-6 sessions) = Deep dive zone
- 🟣 Deep dark colors = Ancient (7+ sessions) = Overhead environment
**Symbols:**
- ↑ ↑↑ ↑↑↑ ↑↑↑↑ ↑↑↑↑↑ = High levels (1st through 5th)
- ↓ ↓↓ ↓↓↓ ↓↓↓↓ ↓↓↓↓↓ = Low levels (1st through 5th)
- ⚠️ = Proximity alert (danger zone)
- 🟢 = Bullish structure
- 🔴 = Bearish structure
- Δ = Tunnel width (distance between 1st high and 1st low)
**Critical Rules:**
1. Never fight ancient levels (7+ sessions)
2. Respect proximity alerts (⚠️)
3. Scale out near old/ancient resistance
4. Wait for confluence when entering
5. Let mitigated levels prove their new role

**Remember**: The indicator gives you structure. The trading edge comes from your discipline in respecting that structure.
Trade safe, trade smart, and always know your exit before your entry. 🎯

ITCP ATR BB RSI Stoch SignalsThis indicator generates BUY/SELL signals when price stretches outside Bollinger Bands during elevated volatility, confirmed by RSI, a Stochastic crossover, and a volume filter. To reduce counter-trend entries, it applies a macro trend filter using the Daily SMA 200: it looks for longs only above the SMA 200 and shorts only below it.
It tends to perform best in Forex, especially on liquid pairs, because market conditions (liquidity, continuous sessions, and relatively stable spreads on major pairs) often suit this confirmation-based approach. That said, it can be adapted to other markets (indices, commodities, or crypto) by tuning parameters such as Bollinger length/deviation, RSI/Stoch thresholds, and ATR settings (multipliers/factors) to fit the asset’s volatility.
It also plots ATR-based stop-loss reference levels (configurable smoothing) and includes webhook-ready alerts with a JSON payload (action, symbol, price, stop_loss, time, and interval) for external automation. The goal is to support rules-based execution and reduce impulsive trades: if conditions don’t align, there’s no signal.
If you manage to improve it, discover better settings, or build a more robust solution inspired by this, I’d really appreciate it if you share it back (even if it’s just feedback or an idea). I’m open to collaborating and iterating together to create stronger versions over time.
Monday Range - User Defined LookbackEnglish Description
Monday Range Expansion & Multi-Week Projections
This indicator identifies the Monday Range (the price action from Monday's open at 00:00) and projects symmetric expansion levels across the entire trading week. It is designed for traders who use the weekly open and Monday's volatility as a benchmark for the week's price action.
Key Features:
Exact Monday 00:00 Start: Using advanced logic, the indicator pins the starting point precisely to the weekly open (Monday 00:00), ensuring no lag or offset regardless of your timeframe.
Symmetric Expansion Levels: It calculates the Monday High-Low range and projects a +100%, +50%, -50%, and -100% expansion, providing clear support and resistance targets.
User-Defined Lookback: You can choose exactly how many past weeks to display on your chart, keeping your workspace clean and focused.
Force Overlay Technology: All lines and labels use force_overlay, ensuring they always stay on the top layer, above candles and other indicators.
Weekly Freeze: Historical weeks stay "frozen" at their Friday closing points, allowing for clear backtesting of previous weekly levels.
AperonFx Pivot Points ATRThis indicator builds on classic pivot point methodology and enhances it with volatility-based ATR offsets to define adaptive support and resistance zones.
The pivot level is derived from the prior period’s price data, while the surrounding levels are calculated using the current day’s ATR to reflect prevailing market conditions.
Support and resistance are placed at incremental distances of 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 ATR away from the pivot, creating a structured price framework.
Users can adjust the pivot calculation method, reference timeframe, and visual presentation to suit their workflow.
