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:**

*"You don't become your best self by denying your patterns. You become your best self by recognizing them, understanding them, and choosing differently." - Adapted from The Mountain Is You*
In trading: You don't become profitable by ignoring market structure. You become profitable by recognizing it, understanding it, and choosing your entries accordingly.
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.
AperonFx Pivot Points 1.1This indicator plots ATR-based pivot levels with a clean, institutional layout.
The central pivot (P) is calculated from the selected timeframe and price formula, while support and resistance levels are placed at equal distance steps above and below the pivot.
Users can choose between an automatic step based on ATR or a fixed price step for fully controlled, symmetric levels.
All levels are drawn as continuous segments that align precisely with the active pivot period.
Price annotations are displayed in a minimal, unobtrusive style and always match the exact level values.
The indicator is designed to remain consistent across chart timeframes without recalculation drift.
It is intended for traders who want clear, structured reference levels rather than reactive signals.
Rainbow Road [kingthies]Rainbow Road
Rainbow Road is a trend-structure and momentum visualization tool built around a cascading chain of smoothed simple moving averages. Instead of plotting independent moving averages on price, each line is progressively smoothed from the prior one using the same length, creating a layered “road” that reveals trend strength, direction, and transition with exceptional clarity.
OVERVIEW
Rainbow Road visualizes trend quality using a spectrum of fast-to-slow moving averages derived from one another. Because each average is smoothed from the prior line, the indicator forms a continuous structure rather than a collection of unrelated signals. This makes trend alignment, momentum expansion, and compression immediately visible.
HOW IT WORKS
The first average is a Simple Moving Average of price
Each subsequent average is an SMA of the previous average using the same length
This creates a cascading chain of averages with increasing smoothness
Colors progress from red (fastest) to purple (slowest) to represent trend hierarchy
HOW TO READ IT
Strong Trend : All averages are aligned and expanding in the same direction
Acceleration : Spacing between averages increases
Deceleration : Spacing narrows while direction remains intact
Consolidation : Averages converge and overlap
Reversal Risk : Faster averages cross back through the slowest average
TREND CONTEXT
The optional fill between the fastest and slowest averages visualizes overall trend pressure. Expanding fill suggests strengthening momentum, while contracting fill highlights compression and potential regime change.
USE CASES
Trend confirmation and directional bias
Momentum expansion vs compression analysis
Identifying trend exhaustion and early reversal zones
Contextual filtering for entries and exits
WHY RAINBOW ROAD
Traditional moving average stacks often produce clutter and redundant signals. Rainbow Road focuses on structure and flow, helping traders evaluate the quality of a trend rather than reacting to individual crossovers.
BEST USED WITH
Price action and market structure
Support and resistance

Solid Dynamic Corridors[AkmanBey]
Solid Dynamic Corridors: Technical Overview
The Solid Dynamic Corridors indicator is a sophisticated, multi-layered trend-following and volatility-channel system. Unlike standard indicators, it combines RSI-derived price projections, ATR-based volatility expansion, and a 20-level support/resistance matrix to identify high-probability trend zones.
1. RSI-Based Price Projection
The foundation of the indicator starts with an inverse calculation of RSI levels. By setting specific overbought (51) and oversold (49) thresholds, the script projects these momentum levels directly onto the price chart as dynamic bands. This allows the trader to see where the price would be if it reached those specific RSI exhaustion points.
2. The Multi-Layered Support & Resistance Matrix
The core strength of the script lies in its 20-level calculation engine. It computes 10 distinct resistance levels (H1-H10) and 10 distinct support levels (L1-L10) using a hybrid blend of:
* Exponential Moving Averages (EMA)
* Average True Range (ATR)
* Historical Extremes (High/Low Lookbacks)
* Price Action Ratios
These levels are then averaged to create the Final Resistance and Support Averages, providing a "solid" boundary that filters out market noise more effectively than a single moving average.
3. Volatility-Adjusted Dynamic Expansion
To adapt to changing market conditions, the indicator employs an ATR-based expansion mechanism. By applying a user-defined multiplier to the current ATR, the bands expand during high-volatility periods and contract during consolidation, ensuring the "Corridors" remain relevant regardless of market speed.
4. Trend Tracking & Persistence Logic
The system features a unique Signal Persistence logic. When a trend shift is detected (via an ATR-based trailing stop mechanism):
* Buy/Sell Signals: Triggered when the price breaks through the calculated trailing limits.
* Persistence Lines: Once a signal is generated, the indicator "locks" the support or resistance level at that moment and tracks it for an extended period (up to 19,999 bars). This helps traders identify long-term historical anchor points even after the immediate trend has passed.
5. Extreme Range Analysis (HH-LL)
Finally, the script calculates Extreme Upper and Lower Bounds based on the highest and lowest points of the signal tracking lines. This creates a "Master Range" that colors the chart dynamically, signaling whether the market is in a Red (Overextended High), Green (Overextended Low), or Blue (Neutral) state.
Summary of Key Features
* Hybrid Momentum/Volatility Engine: Combines RSI and ATR logic.
* Noise Reduction: Averages 20 different data points to find "True" support and resistance.
* Long-Term Reference: Unique tracking system that remembers signal levels for thousands of bars.
* Visual Clarity: Intuitive color coding for trend direction and extreme price zones.

Smart Money Concept Change of Character Break of StructureSMC Structure
Visualizes Change of Character (CHoCH) and Break of Structure (BoS) - two fundamental Smart Money Concepts for identifying trend reversals and continuations.
This is the 1st version of an implementation of this concept.
It is NOT supposed to be used as a signal but a confirmation. Best use during NYSE hours.
Full Description
Overview
This indicator automatically detects and displays two core Smart Money Concepts (SMC) directly on your chart:
CHoCH (Change of Character) – The first structural break against the prevailing trend, signaling a potential reversal
BoS (Break of Structure) – A structural break in the direction of the current trend, confirming continuation
These concepts are essential building blocks of SMC trading methodology, helping traders identify where institutional players may be entering or exiting positions.
How It Works
The indicator uses pivot-based swing detection to identify significant highs and lows. When price breaks through these levels, it classifies the move as either a CHoCH or BoS based on the current trend context.
CHoCH (Change of Character)
Occurs when price breaks structure AGAINST the current trend
First warning sign that the trend may be reversing
Displayed as a solid horizontal line with "CHoCH" label
Green = Bullish reversal | Red = Bearish reversal
BoS (Break of Structure)
Occurs when price breaks structure IN THE DIRECTION of the current trend
Confirms that the existing trend remains intact
Displayed as a dashed horizontal line with "BoS" label
Teal = Bullish continuation | Maroon = Bearish continuation
Visual Example

Extend Lines to Right: Extend structure lines into future bars
Show Info Table: Display current trend and last swing levels
Show Trend Background: Color the chart background based on trend direction
Colors
Fully customizable colors for all elements
How to Use
Identify the trend: Look at the sequence of CHoCH and BoS signals to understand market structure
Watch for CHoCH: A CHoCH signals potential reversal – wait for confirmation before trading against the previous trend
Trade with BoS: BoS confirms trend continuation – look for entries on pullbacks in the direction of the trend
Combine with other SMC concepts: Works great alongside Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, and liquidity concepts
Tips
Use higher pivot lookback values on higher timeframes for cleaner signals
A CHoCH doesn't guarantee reversal – it's the first warning sign, not confirmation
Multiple BoS signals in a row indicate a strong, healthy trend
Look for CHoCH occurring at key levels (support/resistance, order blocks) for higher probability setups

ICT Unicorn Model [Kodexius]ICT Unicorn Model is a market structure and imbalance confluence tool that automatically detects high probability “Unicorn” setups by combining three key elements into a single, clean script:
-A first, clean break of that swing level (displacement style break)
-A Fair Value Gap that overlaps a breaker candle body range
Instead of plotting every pivot or every imbalance independently, the script waits for a specific sequence: price establishes a valid swing, breaks that swing for the first time, and prints a setup only when the resulting context aligns with a valid, volatility filtered FVG and a clearly defined breaker range.
Each detected setup is drawn directly on the chart with labeled zones (Breaker and FVG) and is then actively monitored. If price violates the breaker boundary based on your chosen invalidation basis (Close or Wick), the setup is marked inactive and can optionally be removed to keep the chart clean.
This indicator is designed for traders who work with ICT style concepts such as liquidity runs, displacement, breaker blocks, and imbalance reversion, and who want a structured, rules based visualization rather than discretionary drawing.
🔹 Features
🔸 Fair Value Gap Detection With Volatility Filtering
Bullish and bearish FVGs are detected using classic three candle imbalance logic. To avoid low quality gaps during compression, the script applies an ATR based minimum size filter using the “FVG Min Size (ATR Multiplier)” input. Only gaps larger than ATR * threshold are considered valid.
🔸 First Break Validation (Clean Break Logic)
A key part of the model is identifying a “first break” of a swing level. The script checks whether the swing price has already been invalidated between the swing bar and the current bar. If it has, the swing is ignored. This helps reduce repeated signals and focuses on fresh structural breaks.
🔸 Breaker and FVG Confluence With Overlap Requirement
After a valid break occurs, the script defines a breaker range using the body of the swing candle (open and close). A setup is only created if this breaker body range overlaps the detected FVG price range. This overlap requirement is what filters many “almost” conditions and keeps signals more selective.
Bullish Unicorn:
Bearish Unicorn:
🔸 Configurable Invalidation Basis (Close or Wick)
You can choose how a setup fails:
-Close: invalidation requires a candle close beyond the breaker boundary
-Wick: invalidation occurs as soon as any wick crosses beyond the breaker boundary
This allows the tool to adapt to different trading styles, from conservative confirmation to more sensitive risk control.
🔸 Automatic Cleanup of Failed Setups
If “Delete Invalidated Setups” is enabled, the script removes the breaker box, FVG box, and label as soon as the setup is invalidated. If disabled, the zones remain visible for review while the setup is marked inactive internally.
🔸 Clear Chart Visuals
Each setup plots:
-A labeled Breaker zone box
-A labeled FVG zone box
-A directional Unicorn label (Bull or Bear) that updates position as the chart advances
Colors for bullish and bearish structures are fully configurable.
🔸 Alert Conditions
Two alert conditions are provided:
-Bullish Unicorn Setup Detected
-Bearish Unicorn Setup Detected
Alerts trigger only on the bar a new setup is created.
🔹 Calculations
This section summarizes the main computations used internally. The goal here is to explain the model mechanics rather than reproduce every implementation detail.
1. Swing Detection (Pivot High / Pivot Low)
Swing levels are detected using a symmetric pivot definition with “Swing Length” bars on both sides:
float ph = ta.pivothigh(high, swingLength, swingLength)
float pl = ta.pivotlow(low, swingLength, swingLength)
When a pivot is confirmed, its price and originating bar index are stored:
-Swing High: price = pivot high, isHigh = true
-Swing Low: price = pivot low, isHigh = false
The script keeps a limited history (most recent swings) to stay efficient.
2. Fair Value Gap Detection
FVGs use the classic three candle displacement imbalance:
Bullish FVG condition
bool isBullFVG = high < low
Bullish gap range is defined as:
-Top = low
-Bottom = high
Bearish FVG condition
bool isBearFVG = low > high
Bearish gap range is defined as:
-Top = low
-Bottom = high
3. ATR Based Minimum Gap Filter
ATR is computed (length 14), then the gap size is compared against a user threshold:
float atr = ta.atr(14)
bool validBullFVG = isBullFVG and (bullFvgTop - bullFvgBot) > (atr * fvgThreshold)
bool validBearFVG = isBearFVG and (bearFvgTop - bearFvgBot) > (atr * fvgThreshold)
This prevents very small imbalances from generating setups in low volatility conditions.
4. “First Break” Check Using Level Invalidation Scan
Before accepting a swing break, the script scans forward from the swing bar to the current bar to confirm the level has not already been breached. The scan can be based on wick or close:
-Wick mode: uses high or low
-Close mode: uses close
Conceptually:
priceToCheck = mode == "Wick" ? (checkBelow ? low : high) : close
If a prior breach is found, the swing is treated as already invalidated and is ignored for setup creation.
5. Break Of Structure Condition
Bullish break requirement
A bullish setup requires breaking a stored swing high with bullish body intent:
-close > swingHighPrice
-open < close
Bearish break requirement
A bearish setup requires breaking a stored swing low with bearish body intent:
-close < swingLowPrice
-open > close
An additional proximity filter is applied in the bearish branch to reduce weak or overly extended breaks by requiring the prior close to be reasonably near the swing level.
6. Breaker Range Construction
Once a qualifying swing is found, the breaker range is derived from the body of the swing candle (the candle at the swing bar index). The body boundaries are:
float breakerTop = math.max(bOpen, bClose)
float breakerBot = math.min(bOpen, bClose)
This models the breaker as the candle body range rather than full wick range, which typically produces more practical invalidation boundaries.
7. Overlap Test Between Breaker and FVG
A setup is only created if the breaker body overlaps the FVG zone. Conceptually the script rejects cases where one range is fully above or fully below the other:
-If there is no overlap, no setup is created
-If overlap exists, the Unicorn setup is valid
8. Active Monitoring and Invalidation
Each setup remains active until invalidated. Invalidation is evaluated every bar using your selected basis:
-Close basis: compares close to breaker boundary
-Wick basis: compares high or low to breaker boundary
Bullish invalidation
Setup fails if price crosses below breaker bottom.
Bearish invalidation
Setup fails if price crosses above breaker top.
If deletion is enabled, all drawings related to that setup are removed immediately on invalidation.
9. Drawing Updates and Object Lifecycle
Breaker and FVG boxes are extended to the right while the setup is active to keep zones visible into the near future. The Unicorn label is also repositioned as new bars print so the most recent context stays readable.
B + A + D v0.4This script combines a momentum histogram (B-Xtrender) with trend strength and direction filters (ADX + DI).
The histogram is built from EMA differentials processed through RSI, showing short- and long-term momentum shifts around the zero line. ADX with DI+ / DI− is used to confirm whether the market is trending and in which direction.
Bullish signals appear when the histogram turns positive and DI+ dominates DI− with sufficient trend strength.
Bearish signals appear when the histogram turns negative and DI− dominates DI+ with sufficient trend strength.
Important note for users:
The strongest and most reliable signals are those that appear immediately after the histogram crosses the zero line (from negative to positive or from positive to negative). Signals that appear later, while the histogram is already extended in the trend, tend to be weaker and should be treated as continuation signals rather than high-probability reversals.

3MA Alignment Ribbon [AlgoTraderPro]3MA Alignment Ribbon is a clean, visual trend-structure indicator based on the alignment of three moving averages.
Instead of focusing on crossovers, it highlights trend quality and direction by dynamically coloring the moving averages and the ribbon between them.
The goal is simple : See at a glance whether the market structure is bullish, bearish, or neutral.
⸻
How It Works
The indicator plots three moving averages (Fast, Medium, Slow) and evaluates their alignment:
Bullish → Fast > Medium > Slow
Bearish → Fast < Medium < Slow
Neutral → Any other configuration
The moving averages and the filled ribbon between them are automatically colored based on this alignment, making trend conditions immediately visible.
⸻
Key Features

Zones of Support and Resistance can feel like drawing boxes on the chart. This indicator to help spot areas of possible reversal. It uses Volume Confirmation and Body-to-Wick Ratio to do this and defined as:
1. Volume Confirmation
High Volume: A candle that absorbs sitting limit orders is often accompanied with higher than average volume. The indicator define this type of candle if it has a volume is greater than 250%/350% of the average volume over the last 10 candles.
2. Body-to-Wick Ratio
Body vs. Wick: A candle with a small body and large wicks can indicate higher probability of reversal. You can define an absorption candle if the body of the candle is less than 50% of the total range (high-low).
These settings are also customizable to your own desired settings and should be used as a visual aid.
