Bull Market Support Band (20W SMA + 21W EMA)🟩 Bull Market Support Band (20W SMA + 21W EMA)
OVERVIEW
The Bull Market Support Band is a long-term trend indicator that combines the 20-week SMA and 21-week EMA.
When price is above the band → bullish trend.
When below → bearish trend.
When within → neutral or transition phase.
This v6 version adds full customization, dynamic coloring, event labels, candle coloring, and a configurable on-chart legend table with trend arrows.
HOW IT WORKS
Calculates the 20W SMA and 21W EMA from a user-selectable higher timeframe (weekly by default).
Plots both averages and shades the area between them to form the support band.
The fill and line colors change automatically based on the market phase:
🟩 Green = Bullish (price above)
🟥 Red = Bearish (price below)
⬜ Gray = Neutral (price within).
Labels appear only when the trend state changes.
Alerts trigger when price crosses the band or either moving average.
Optional candle coloring applies the same bull/bear/neutral logic to price bars.
A convenience legend table displays current 20W SMA and 21W EMA values, along with slope arrows (^, v, =).
INCLUDED FEATURES
Configurable calculation timeframe.
Automatic band fill and line coloring.
Optional candle coloring overlay.
Compact or detailed regime-change labels.
ATR-based label offset and spacing control.
Customizable legend table with background color.
Horizontal or vertical legend layout.
Custom arrow characters (ASCII or Unicode).
Built-in alerts for band and MA crosses.
Optimized for higher-timeframe accuracy using request.security().
USAGE TIPS
Keep the default weekly setting for macro trend context.
On lower chart timeframes, use the band as higher-level support/resistance.
Combine with momentum or volume indicators (RSI, MACD, OBV) for confirmation.
Adjust ATR multiplier to move labels further from price candles.
Increase “Min bars between labels” to reduce visual clutter.
Disable auto-coloring if you prefer a static color theme.
Toggle compact legend or switch between horizontal/vertical layouts for best fit.
INTERPRETATION GUIDE
🟩 Bullish: Price above the band → trend continuation likely.
⬜ Neutral: Price within the band → consolidation or potential reversal zone.
🟥 Bearish: Price below the band → downtrend continuation or distribution.
Sustained closes above or below the band typically align with major market cycle shifts.
NOTES
Uses request.security() for higher-timeframe precision — accurate even on smaller charts.
The legend table is screen-anchored and remains fixed as you pan or zoom.
Plots and labels are price-anchored and move with candles.
Lightweight and efficient for all markets and intervals.

Bullish Reversal Bar Strategy [Skyrexio]Overview
Bullish Reversal Bar Strategy leverages the combination of candlestick pattern Bullish Reversal Bar (description in Methodology and Justification of Methodology), Williams Alligator indicator and Williams Fractals to create the high probability setups. Candlestick pattern is used for the entering into trade, while the combination of Williams Alligator and Fractals is used for the trend approximation as close condition. Strategy uses only long trades.
Unique Features
No fixed stop-loss and take profit: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes technical condition obtained by Fractals and Alligator or the candlestick pattern invalidation to identify when current uptrend is likely to be over (more information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs)
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Trend Trade Filter: strategy uses Alligator and Fractal combination as high probability trend filter.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
1.Current candle's high shall be below the Williams Alligator's lines (Jaw, Lips, Teeth)(all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph)
2.Price shall create the candlestick pattern "Bullish Reversal Bar". Optionally if MFI and AO filters are enabled current candle shall have the decreasing AO and at least one of three recent bars shall have the squat state on the MFI (all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph)
3.If price breaks through the high of the candle marked as the "Bullish Reversal Bar" the long trade is open at the price one tick above the candle's high
4.Initial stop loss is placed at the Bullish Reversal Bar's candle's low
5.If price hit the Bullish Reversal Bar's low before hitting the entry price potential trade is cancelled
6.If trade is active and initial stop loss has not been hit, trade is closed when the combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend change from upward to downward.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup strategy setting:
Enable MFI (if true trades are filtered using Market Facilitation Index (MFI) condition all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph), by default = false)
Enable AO (if true trades are filtered using Awesome Oscillator (AO) condition all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph), by default = false)
Justification of Methodology
Let's explore the key concepts of this strategy and understand how they work together. The first and key concept is the Bullish Reversal Bar candlestick pattern. This is just the single bar pattern. The rules are simple:
Candle shall be closed in it's upper half
High of this candle shall be below all three Alligator's lines (Jaw, Lips, Teeth)
Next, let’s discuss the short-term trend filter, which combines the Williams Alligator and Williams Fractals. Williams Alligator
Developed by Bill Williams, the Alligator is a technical indicator that identifies trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three smoothed moving averages:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest of the three, based on a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars ahead.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, derived from an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, calculated using a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines diverge and align in order, the "Alligator" is "awake," signaling a strong trend. When the lines overlap or intertwine, the "Alligator" is "asleep," indicating a range-bound or sideways market. This indicator helps traders determine when to enter or avoid trades.
Fractals, another tool by Bill Williams, help identify potential reversal points on a price chart. A fractal forms over at least five consecutive bars, with the middle bar showing either:
Up Fractal: Occurs when the middle bar has a higher high than the two preceding and two following bars, suggesting a potential downward reversal.
Down Fractal: Happens when the middle bar shows a lower low than the surrounding two bars, hinting at a possible upward reversal.
Traders often use fractals alongside other indicators to confirm trends or reversals, enhancing decision-making accuracy.
How do these tools work together in this strategy? Let’s consider an example of an uptrend.
When the price breaks above an up fractal, it signals a potential bullish trend. This occurs because the up fractal represents a shift in market behavior, where a temporary high was formed due to selling pressure. If the price revisits this level and breaks through, it suggests the market sentiment has turned bullish.
The breakout must occur above the Alligator’s teeth line to confirm the trend. A breakout below the teeth is considered invalid, and the downtrend might still persist. Conversely, in a downtrend, the same logic applies with down fractals.
How we can use all these indicators in this strategy? This strategy is a counter trend one. Candle's high shall be below all Alligator's lines. During this market stage the bullish reversal bar candlestick pattern shall be printed. This bar during the downtrend is a high probability setup for the potential reversal to the upside: bulls were able to close the price in the upper half of a candle. The breaking of its high is a high probability signal that trend change is confirmed and script opens long trade. If market continues going down and break down the bullish reversal bar's low potential trend change has been invalidated and strategy close long trade.
If market really reversed and started moving to the upside strategy waits for the trend change form the downtrend to the uptrend according to approximation of Alligator and Fractals combination. If this change happens strategy close the trade. This approach helps to stay in the long trade while the uptrend continuation is likely and close it if there is a high probability of the uptrend finish.
Optionally users can enable MFI and AO filters. First of all, let's briefly explain what are these two indicators. The Awesome Oscillator (AO), created by Bill Williams, is a momentum-based indicator that evaluates market momentum by comparing recent price activity to a broader historical context. It assists traders in identifying potential trend reversals and gauging trend strength.
AO = SMA5(Median Price) − SMA34(Median Price)
where:
Median Price = (High + Low) / 2
SMA5 = 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
SMA 34 = 34-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
This indicator is filtering signals in the following way: if current AO bar is decreasing this candle can be interpreted as a bullish reversal bar. This logic is applicable because initially this strategy is a trend reversal, it is searching for the high probability setup against the current trend. Decreasing AO is the additional high probability filter of a downtrend.
Let's briefly look what is MFI. The Market Facilitation Index (MFI) is a technical indicator that measures the price movement per unit of volume, helping traders gauge the efficiency of price movement in relation to trading volume. Here's how you can calculate it:
MFI = (High−Low)/Volume
MFI can be used in combination with volume, so we can divide 4 states. Bill Williams introduced these to help traders interpret the interaction between volume and price movement. Here’s a quick summary:
Green Window (Increased MFI & Increased Volume): Indicates strong momentum with both price and volume increasing. Often a sign of trend continuation, as both buying and selling interest are rising.
Fake Window (Increased MFI & Decreased Volume): Shows that price is moving but with lower volume, suggesting weak support for the trend. This can signal a potential end of the current trend.
Squat Window (Decreased MFI & Increased Volume): Shows high volume but little price movement, indicating a tug-of-war between buyers and sellers. This often precedes a breakout as the pressure builds.
Fade Window (Decreased MFI & Decreased Volume): Indicates a lack of interest from both buyers and sellers, leading to lower momentum. This typically happens in range-bound markets and may signal consolidation before a new move.
For our purposes we are interested in squat bars. This is the sign that volume cannot move the price easily. This type of bar increases the probability of trend reversal. In this indicator we added to enable the MFI filter of reversal bars. If potential reversal bar or two preceding bars have squat state this bar can be interpret as a reversal one.

Bullish/Bearish Reversal Bars Indicator [Skyrexio]Introduction
Bullish/Bearish Reversal Bars Indicator leverages the combination of candlestick reversal bar pattern and the Williams Alligator indicator to help traders in understanding where there is a high probability of market reversal or correction. Indicator works for both bearish and bullish cases. It visualizes the bearish and bullish reversal bars with red and green dots and also plots the Alligator's lips to make it more convenient for traders to understand if price is above or below lips line (more information in "Methodology and it's justification" paragraph).
Features
Market Facilitation Index(MFI) filter: with the specified parameter in settings user can choose to filter bullish and bearish reversal bars which passed the MFI condition.
Awesome Oscillator(AO) filter: with the specified parameter in settings user can choose to filter bullish and bearish reversal bars which passed the AO condition.
Alerts: user can set up the alert and have notifications when bullish/bearish reversal bar has been printed.
Methodology and it's justification
In the script’s methodology, we apply the concepts of bullish and bearish reversal bars introduced by Bill Williams in his book Trading Chaos. So, what exactly is a bullish or bearish reversal bar? At its core, it’s a candlestick pattern. A bullish reversal bar is a bar that closes in its upper half, while a bearish reversal bar closes in its lower half.
Why is this type of bar significant? Let’s look at the bullish reversal bar as an example. When the price is trending upward, forming higher highs with each candle, and we suddenly see a bullish bar that makes a new high but ultimately closes in its lower half, it signals a shift in control. Bears have taken control toward the end of that candle's period, pushing the price back down. This can be interpreted as a sign of trend weakness and a potential reversal (or at least a correction).
An additional key point is that a reversal bar often indicates a possible end to the trend. Therefore, for a reversal bar to be valid, several preceding candles should show lower highs (for bullish bars) or higher lows (for bearish bars), reinforcing the likelihood of a trend change.
The second step on methodology is the location of the bar related to Williams Alligator. The Williams Alligator Indicator, developed by Bill Williams, is a technical analysis tool that helps traders identify trends and potential turning points in the market. It consists of three lines, often called the jaw, teeth, and lips of the alligator, each representing different moving averages:
Jaw (Blue Line): A slower moving average, typically a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars into the future.
Teeth (Red Line): A medium moving average, typically an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars into the future.
Lips (Green Line): A faster moving average, usually a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars into the future.
When the three lines are spread out and moving in the same direction, it suggests a strong trend (the "alligator" is "awake and feeding"). When they intertwine, the indicator suggests that the market is moving sideways, or in a range, signaling a lack of clear trend (the "alligator" is "sleeping"). Traders use the Alligator Indicator to enter trades in trending markets and avoid trades in choppy, non-trending markets.
If bullish reversal bar's high is not below and bearish reversal bar's low is not above all three Alligator's lines (jaw, lips, teeth) they cannot be interpreted as these types of bars. It can be explained as following: if we are waiting for the bullish reversal bar it shall be reversal from downtrend. If price is not below all three lines it can't be interpret as the downtrend according to this method. The opposite is true for the bearish reversal bar.
All described above are obligatory conditions for reversal bar, now let's discuss two not obligatory conditions. The first one is Market Facilitation Index (MFI) restriction. Let's briefly look what is MFI. The Market Facilitation Index (MFI) is a technical indicator that measures the price movement per unit of volume, helping traders gauge the efficiency of price movement in relation to trading volume. Here's how you can calculate it:
MFI = (High−Low)/Volume
MFI can be used in combination with volume, so we can divide 4 states. Bill Williams introduced these to help traders interpret the interaction between volume and price movement. Here’s a quick summary:
Green Window (Increased MFI & Increased Volume): Indicates strong momentum with both price and volume increasing. Often a sign of trend continuation, as both buying and selling interest are rising.
Fake Window (Increased MFI & Decreased Volume): Shows that price is moving but with lower volume, suggesting weak support for the trend. This can signal a potential end of the current trend.
Squat Window (Decreased MFI & Increased Volume): Shows high volume but little price movement, indicating a tug-of-war between buyers and sellers. This often precedes a breakout as the pressure builds.
Fade Window (Decreased MFI & Decreased Volume): Indicates a lack of interest from both buyers and sellers, leading to lower momentum. This typically happens in range-bound markets and may signal consolidation before a new move.
For our purposes we are interested in squat bars. This is the sign that volume cannot move the price easily. This type of bar increases the probability of trend reversal. In this indicator we added to enable the MFI filter of reversal bars. If potential reversal bar or two preceding bars have squat state this bar can be interpret as a reversal one.
The second additional filter is Awesome Oscillator. The Awesome Oscillator (AO), developed by Bill Williams, is a momentum indicator that measures market momentum by comparing recent price action to a longer historical context. It helps traders identify potential trend reversals and the strength of trends. Formula:
AO = SMA5(Median Price) − SMA34(Median Price)
where:
Median Price = (High + Low) / 2
SMA5 = 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
SMA 34 = 34-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
If AO is decreasing momentum is bearish, if increasing - bullish. According to Bill Williams approach reversal bars are the potential trades against the trend. As a result we added second filter for bullish reversal bars AO shall be decreasing, for bearish increasing.
How to use indicator
Apply it to desired chart and time frame. It works on every time frame.
Setup the filters with the "Enable MFI" and "Enable AO" checkboxes in the settings. By default they are turned on.
Analyze the price action. Indicator plotted the white line, this is the lips of an Alligator. It will help you to understand how price is moving in comparison to lips line. Indicator will print the green dot and text "BULL" below it current bar is bullish reversal. It will print the red dot and text "BEAR" above it if current bar is interpreted by algorithm as a bearish reversal.
Set up the alerts if it's needed. Indicator has two custom alerts called "Bullish reversal bar has been printed" and "Bearish reversal bar has been printed"

Bull/Bear Engulf High Low LookupAllows to specify the high and low look-back period for both Bullish and Bearish engulfing candles. In essence, it is an extension of the classical engulf pattern. By default lookback period is set to 3.
Can be used on any time-frame and any instrument. Previous candle is irrelevent.
An engulfing candle is defined as follows:
Bullish: Must trade BELOW prior candle LOW and close ABOVE prior candle HIGH
Bullish: Must trade ABOVE prior candle HIGH and close BELOW prior candle LOW

BBP Oscillator V1 + Multiple Time FrameBull Bear Power + HTF/LTF Filter (BBP+)
Overview:
BBP+ is a minimalist Bull Bear Power histogram designed to help traders identify potential bearish signals while filtering them with current and higher timeframe trends. An optional lower timeframe (LTF) filter can further reduce false signals, without displaying extra markers on the chart.
Inputs:
BBP Length: EMA length for BBP calculation (smaller → more sensitive, larger → smoother).
EMA Trend (Current TF): Current timeframe trend filter (signals only when bearish).
HTF Timeframe & EMA: Higher timeframe trend filter (optional).
Enable HTF Filter: Toggle HTF trend filter.
LTF Timeframe & Enable LTF Filter: Optional filter to reduce false signals; no visual output.
Show Signals: Toggle to show/hide main bearish signals.
Signal Logic:
Main bearish signals appear when:
Current trend is bearish
BBP momentum is decreasing
Optional HTF trend filter passes
Optional LTF momentum filter passes
Important Notes
Indicator is not a guaranteed profit tool; use for analysis only.
Past performance does not indicate future results.
LTF filter does not appear visually, only helps filter main signals.
Adjust BBP Length, EMA Trend, and HTF/LTF settings according to market volatility and timeframe.
Bull Engulf @ Rolling Support + HTF Confluence (2-8w) This indicator is designed to identify high-probability bullish reversal setups that occur at proven support levels, with confirmation from higher timeframes.
It is built for swing traders targeting 2–8 week moves, prioritizing win rate and trade quality over frequency.
The script focuses on institutional-style price behavior: pullbacks into support, seller exhaustion, and clear buyer confirmation before entry.
Core Logic
A signal is generated only when all of the following align:
Bullish Engulfing Candle
Current candle fully engulfs the prior candle’s body
Optional filters ensure strong momentum (close above prior high, meaningful candle size)
Rolling-Low Support
Price must be near a rolling support level based on recent swing lows
Support adapts dynamically to market structure
Higher Timeframe (HTF) Confluence
Daily setups can require alignment with weekly and monthly support
Weekly setups can require monthly support
This dramatically reduces low-quality signals
Strongest-Only Scoring System
Each setup is scored based on:
Proximity to support
HTF confluence
Candle strength
Volume and volatility filters
Only setups meeting a minimum score threshold are shown
Signals & Labels
SETUP / TOP label
Appears when a valid bullish engulfing forms at support with HTF confirmation.
ENTRY label
Appears when price breaks above the high of the engulfing candle (confirmation entry).
Support Lines
Local (rolling) support
Weekly and Monthly support (when applicable)
Each label includes:
Timeframe
Score
Support distance
Suggested risk level
A standardized options structure for 2–8 week trades
Intended Trading Style
Timeframe: Daily and Weekly charts
Trade Duration: ~2–8 weeks
Market Type: Stocks (best on liquid, mid/large-cap names)
Approach:
Wait for price to come to support
Wait for buyers to prove control
Enter only after confirmation
This indicator is not designed for:
Day trading
Chasing breakouts
High-frequency signals
Fewer signals is intentional.
How to Use
Apply the indicator to Daily or Weekly charts
Wait for a SETUP/TOP label at support
Enter only after the ENTRY confirmation (break above engulfing high)
Use the displayed risk level to define invalidation
Let the trade develop over multiple weeks
Alerts can be enabled for:
Pre-market watchlist signals (yesterday’s setups)
Confirmed signals at the close
Entry confirmation
Why This Works
Markets often reverse at support, not randomly.
By combining:
Structural support
Price-action confirmation
Higher timeframe alignment
this indicator filters out most noise and focuses on areas where larger participants are likely active.

Bull/Bear vs Base vs Index (% Change Spread)Visualizes the performance gap ("Beta Decay") between 3x Leveraged ETFs (SOXL/SOXS) and their underlying sector (SOXX), relative to the S&P 500 (SPY).
This indicator is designed for traders who trade leveraged products (like SOXL/SOXS, TQQQ/SQQQ) and need to see true relative strength beyond simple price action.
It calculates the percentage change over a user-defined lookback period for four instruments:
Base (1x): The sector benchmark (Default: SOXX).
Bull (3x): The leveraged long ETF (Default: SOXL).
Bear (-3x): The leveraged inverse ETF (Default: SOXS).
Index: The broad market zero-line (Default: SPY).
It then plots the Spread to reveal the health of the trend:
Bull Spread (Green Line): Bull % - Base %
Bear Spread (Red Line): Bear % - Base %
Base vs Index (Filled Area): Base % - SPY %
🧠 The Logic: Why Use Spreads?
In a perfectly efficient trending market, a 3x Bull ETF should move exactly 300% of the underlying asset. However, in choppy or volatile markets, volatility decay (beta slippage) causes leveraged ETFs to underperform mathematically.
Positive Spread: The leveraged ETF is successfully capturing momentum (The "Sweet Spot").
Negative Spread: The leveraged ETF is suffering from drag or the underlying asset is chopping.
📈 Recommended Trading Plan
Note: This indicator works best as a filter for entry conditions, not a standalone signal. Always use proper risk management.
Strategy A: The "Clean Trend" (Momentum)
Goal: Enter a 3x position only when volatility drag is minimal.
1. Bull Signal:
Condition 1: The Base vs Index (Area) is Green (Sector is outperforming SPY).
Condition 2: The Bull Spread (Green Line) is Positive (> 0).
Why: This confirms the sector is strong AND the 3x ETF is amplifying that move efficiently without decay eating the profits.
2. Bear Signal:
Condition 1: The Base vs Index (Area) is Red (Sector is lagging SPY).
Condition 2: The Bear Spread (Red Line) is Positive (> 0).
Why: This confirms the sector is crashing and the Bear ETF is successfully capturing the downside momentum.
Strategy B: The "Decay Avoidance" (Cash is King)
Goal: Avoid leveraged funds during chop.
Condition: If BOTH the Bull Spread and Bear Spread are Negative (< 0) (below the zero line).
Action: Stay in Cash or trade the 1x underlying (SOXX) only.
Why: When both spreads are negative, it mathematically proves that the market is too choppy for leverage. Both the Long and Short leveraged funds are losing value relative to the underlying asset.
Features:
Pine Script® v6: Updated for the latest engine performance and visuals.
Dashboard Table: Real-time percentage spreads displayed directly on the chart (customizable position).
Fully Customizable: Works on any sector (e.g., set inputs to QQQ/TQQQ/SQQQ for Tech).

Common Mistakes to Avoid
❌ Entering too early
Wait for actual breakout, not anticipation
"Forming" ≠ "Breakout"
❌ Ignoring volume
No volume = likely false breakout
Require 1.5x+ relative volume minimum
❌ Fighting the trend
Check EMA and VWAP status
Both should be ✓ for high probability
❌ Wide stops
Stop should be below pullback low
If stop is too wide, skip the trade
❌ Holding losers
"Breakout or bailout" - if it doesn't work, exit
Failed breakouts often reverse hard
❌ Chasing extended moves
If you missed entry, wait for next pattern
Don't chase 5+ candles after breakout
Risk Management Rules
Position Sizing
Risk Amount = Account × Risk % (typically 1-2%)
Position Size = Risk Amount ÷ (Entry - Stop)

Bull & Bear Candle By Background ColorThe essential chart overlay for high-speed momentum confirmation.
This professional-grade Pine Script v5 indicator provides instant, unfiltered visual feedback on the market's immediate bias by coloring the chart background based on the short-term relationship between Close and Open. It’s designed to streamline decision-making and enhance trade conviction.
Why Traders Use This Tool
In dynamic markets, reading momentum rapidly is critical. This indicator removes visual clutter and cognitive lag.
Zero-Lag Momentum Filter: Instantly identifies if control belongs to buyers (Close > Open) or sellers (Close < Open). A sustained background color acts as a directional bias filter for all your setups.
Trade Confirmation & Conviction: Use the background color as a high-level confluence factor. Only execute Long trades when the background is Bullish and Short trades when it is Bearish. This drastically reduces counter-trend entries.
Risk Management Signal: The appearance of the Neutral/Doji Color flags market equilibrium and consolidation, often preceding a critical structural shift. This is your immediate signal to tighten stops or prepare for a potential reversal setup.
Dual Confirmation: The script offers a highly requested feature: Bar Coloring layered atop the background to provide a second, granular layer of visual context, making momentum shifts impossible to miss.
⚙️ Key Features & Settings Usage
All settings are optimized for clarity, using high transparency to prevent the indicator from obscuring underlying price action or other analytical tools.
🎨 Background Color Settings (Primary)
These controls allow you to define the market state you are reading:
1. Background: Bullish Color: Confirms short-term buying pressure (Close > Open). Set a distinct color for confirmed upward momentum.
2. Background: Bearish Color: Confirms short-term selling pressure (Close < Open). Set a high-contrast color for immediate recognition of downward pressure.
3. Background: Neutral/Doji Color: Signals market indecision (Close ≈ Open). Use as a caution flag, highlighting pivot points and ranging periods.
✨ Added Feature: Bar Coloring
4. FEATURE: Enable Bar Coloring: When enabled, the individual candles are colored with a lighter hue matching the background. This provides dual visual confirmation, maximizing impact on lower timeframes where momentum flips quickly.
🧭 How to Achieve Confluence
Entry Filter: Wait for the background color to flip to your desired direction, then seek your primary entry signal (e.g., breakout, pullback, or MACD cross).
Trade Hold: As long as the background color remains consistent, the short-term momentum is confirmed, justifying the continuation of your trade.
Exit Signal: A flip to the Neutral/Doji Color should be treated as a warning shot, signaling a mandatory review of your position and stops.
Disclaimer: This indicator is a powerful visual and confirmation tool and does not generate buy/sell signals on its own. It is designed to be used in conjunction with your established trading strategy and comprehensive risk management principles
Bull/Bear FVG Density RatioThis indicator tracks the directional frequency of Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) over a configurable lookback window, offering a clean, responsive measure of market imbalance.
🔍 What It Does:
Detects bullish and bearish FVGs using a 3-bar displacement logic
Calculates the ratio of FVGs to candles over the last N bars
Plots separate density curves for bullish and bearish FVGs
Includes a threshold line to help identify regime shifts (e.g., drought vs spate)
📈 How to Use:
Use rising density to confirm trend strength or breakout momentum
Watch for crossovers above the threshold to signal active imbalance regimes
Combine with price action or volume overlays for high-confluence setups
⚙️ Inputs:
Lookback Window: Number of candles used to calculate FVG density
Threshold: Visual guide for regime classification (default: 0.2)
This tool is ideal for traders who want to move beyond symptomatic signals and model structural causality. It pairs well with lifecycle scoring, retest velocity, and HTF overlays.
Bull Market Support Band Alert (20W SMA & 21W EMA) - Multi-Alert═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🎯 WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES:
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
This indicator monitors the Bull Market Support Band (BMSB) - a popular trend-following system that uses the 20-week Simple Moving Average (SMA) and 21-week Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to identify major market trends. It alerts you when price crosses either moving average on any stock in your watchlist.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📈 THE BULL MARKET SUPPORT BAND STRATEGY:
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
- ABOVE both MAs = Bullish trend (consider holding/buying)
- BELOW both MAs = Bearish trend (consider caution/selling)
- CROSSING ABOVE = Potential trend change to bullish
- CROSSING BELOW = Potential trend change to bearish
Originally popularized by cryptocurrency analysts, the BMSB has proven effective across all markets for identifying major trend changes.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
⚡ KEY FEATURES:
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
✅ Single alert monitors your ENTIRE watchlist
✅ Works on ANY timeframe (daily, 4H, 1H) while maintaining weekly MA accuracy

Bullish Breakaway Dual Session-Publish-Consolidated FVG
Inspired by the FVG Concept:
This indicator is built on the Fair Value Gap (FVG) concept, with a focus on Consolidated FVG. Unlike traditional FVGs, this version only works within a defined session (e.g., ETH 18:00–17:00 or RTH 09:30–16:00).
Bullish consolidated FVG & Bullish breakaway candle
Begins when a new intraday low is printed. After that, the indicator searches for the 1st bullish breakaway candle, which must have its low above the high of the intraday low candle. Any candles in between are part of the consolidated FVG zone. Once the 1st breakaway forms, the indicator will shades the candle’s range (high to low). Then it will use this candle as an anchor to search for the 2nd, 3rd, etc. breakaways until the session ends.
Session Reset: Occurs at session close.
Repaint Behavior:
If a new intraday (or intra-session) low forms, earlier breakaway patterns are wiped, and the system restarts from the new low.
Counter:
A session-based counter at the top of the chart displays how many bullish consolidated FVGs have formed.
Settings
• Session Setup:
Choose ETH, RTH, or custom session. The indicator is designed for CME futures in New York timezone, but can be adjusted for other markets.
If nothing appears on your chart, check if you loaded it during an inactive session (e.g., weekend/Friday night).
• Max Zones to Show:
Default = 3 (recommended). You can increase, but 3 zones are usually most useful.
• Timeframe:
Best on 1m, 5m, or 15m. (If session range is big, try higher time frame)
Usage
1. Avoid Trading in Wrong Direction
• No bullish breakaway = No long trade.
• Prevents the temptation to countertrade in strong downtrends.
2. Catch the Trend Reversal
• When a bullish breakaway appears after an intraday low, it signals a potential reversal.
• You will need adjust position sizing, watch out liquidity hunt, and place stop loss.
• Best entries of your preferred choices: (this is your own trading edge)
Retest
Breakout
Engulf
MA cross over
Whatever your favorite approach
• Reversal signal is the strongest when price stays within/above the breakaway candle’s
range. Weak if it breaks below.
3. Higher Timeframe Confirmation
• 1m can give false reversals if new lows keep forming.
• 5m often provides cleaner signals and avoids premature reversals.
Failed Trade Example:
This indicator will repaint if a new intraday session low is updated. So it is possible to have a failed trade. Here is an example from the same session in 1m chart. However, if you enter the trade later at another bullish breakaway candle signal. The loss can be mitigated by the profit.
Therefore you should use smaller position size for your 1st trade. You should also considering using 5m chart to avoid 1m bull trap. In this example, if you use 5m chart, you can totally avoid this failed trade.
If you enter the trade, you will see the intraday low is stop loss hunted. You can also see the 1st bullish breakaway candle is super weak. There are a lot of candles below the breakaway candle low, so it is very possible to fail.
In the next chart, you can see the failed traded get stop loss hunted. However you can enter another trade with huge profit to win back the loss from the 1st trade if you follow the rule.
Summary
This indicator offers 3 main advantages:
1. Prevents wrong-direction trades.
2. Confirms trend entry after reversal signals.
3. Filters false positives using higher timeframes.
How to sharp your edge:
1. ⏳Extreme patience⏳: Do not guess the bottom during a downtrend before a confirmed bullish breakaway candle. If you get caught, have the courage to cut loss. This is literally the most important usage of this indicator. Again, this is the most important rule of this indicator and actually the hardest rule to follow.
2. 🛎Better Entry🛎: After a confirmed bullish breakaway, you will always have a good opportunity to enter the trade using established trading technique. Your edge will come from the position size, draw down, stop loss placement, risk/reward ratio.
3. ✂Cut loss fast✂: If you enter a trade according to the rule, but you are still not making profit for a period of time, and the price is below the low of the breakaway candle. It is very likely you may hit stop loss soon (intraday session low). It won't be a bad idea to cut loss before stop loss hit.
4. 🔂Reentry with confidence after stop loss🔂: a stop loss will not invalidate the indicator. If you see a second chance to reenter, you should still follow the trade guide and rule.
5. 🕔Time frame matter🕔: try 1m, 3m, 5m, 10m, 15m time frame. Over time, you should know what time frame work best for you and the market. Higher time frame will reduce the noise of false positive trade, but it comes with a higher stop loss placement and less max profit, however it may come with a lower draw down. Time frame will matter depending on the range of the session. If the session range is small (<0.5%), lower time frame is good. If session range is big (>1%), 5m time frame is better. Remember to wait for candle to close, if you use higher time frame.
Last Mention:
The indicator is only used for bullish side trading.
Bull & Bear Power Separados📄 English Description for TradingView
Bull & Bear Power – Elder Style
This indicator displays the strength of buyers (Bull Power) and sellers (Bear Power) separately, based on Alexander Elder’s original concept.
It uses a 13-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) as the baseline, calculating:
Bull Power = High – EMA
Bear Power = Low – EMA
✔️ Bull Power (green) shows buying pressure.
✔️ Bear Power (red) shows selling pressure.
Great for analyzing true market momentum and spotting early signs of potential trend reversals.
Can be used as confirmation together with moving averages (e.g., MMA30 and MMA50) or price action signals.
✅ On 1H gold charts (XAUUSD), it has shown solid behavior in filtering entries during clear trends.
Developed and shared for educational purposes by El Bit Criollo.
Bullish/Bearish Body StrengthThis indicator analyzes candlestick body sizes to measure bullish versus bearish strength over a specified period. Here's what it does:
Features:
- Measures and totals the body sizes of bullish and bearish candles over your chosen lookback period
- Shows the total bullish and bearish body measurements as separate plots
- Calculates and displays a bull/bear ratio (bullish total divided by bearish total)
- Shows the difference between bullish and bearish totals
- Colors the background based on bullish (green) or bearish (red) dominance
- Includes an information table with current values and signals
Customization Options:
- Lookback Period: Set how many bars to analyze (default: 14)
- Normalize by ATR: Option to normalize body sizes by the Average True Range for more consistent measurement across different volatility periods
- Smoothing Period: Apply smoothing to the ratio and difference values
- Display Options: Toggle for showing the bull/bear ratio and bull-bear difference
How to Use:
1. Add the indicator to your chart in TradingView
2. Adjust the lookback period to fit your trading timeframe
3. Watch for:
- When bullish bodies significantly outweigh bearish ones (green dominance)
- When bearish bodies significantly outweigh bullish ones (red dominance)
- Ratio values above 2 (strong bullish signal) or below 0.5 (strong bearish signal)
The indicator provides both visual cues and numerical data to help identify periods of bullish or bearish momentum based on actual price movement rather than just candle count.
Bull vs Bear Volume on Price ChartThis script overlays estimated bullish and bearish volume directly on the price chart, making it easy to spot buying vs. selling pressure without switching to a separate volume pane.
🔍 Features:
📈 Bullish volume markers appear as green triangles below the candle.
📉 Bearish volume markers appear as red triangles above the candle.
🔄 Optional smoothing to reduce noise using simple moving average (SMA).
⚠️ Volume spike highlights: Bullish spikes turn lime green, bearish spikes turn bright red.
🔢 Toggle labels to see estimated volume values above/below each candle.
🔄 Works on all timeframes, from intraday to weekly/monthly charts.
📐 Methodology:
Bullish and bearish volume are estimated using the candle's range:
More bullish volume when the close is near the high.
More bearish volume when the close is near the low.
This is a visual proxy, not true order flow data.
Bull Bear Pivot by RawstocksThe "Bull Bear Pivot" indicator is a custom Pine Script (v5) tool designed for TradingView to assist traders in identifying key price levels and pivot points on intraday charts (up to 1-hour timeframes). It combines time-based open price markers, pivot high/low detection, and candlestick visualization to provide a comprehensive view of potential support, resistance, and trend reversal levels. Below is a detailed description of the indicator’s functionality, features, and intended use.
Indicator Overview:
The "Bull Bear Pivot" indicator is tailored for intraday trading, focusing on specific times of the day to mark significant price levels (open prices) and detect pivot points. It plots horizontal lines at the open prices of user-defined sessions, identifies pivot highs and lows on the current chart timeframe, and overlays custom candlesticks to highlight price action. The indicator is designed to work on timeframes of 1 hour or less (e.g., 1-minute, 3-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute, 30-minute, 60-minute) and includes a warning mechanism for invalid timeframes.
Key Features:
Time-Based Open Price Markers:
The indicator allows users to define up to five time-based sessions (e.g., 4:00 AM, 8:30 AM, 9:30 AM, 10:00 AM, and a custom time) to capture the open price at the start of each session.
For each session, it plots a horizontal line at the 1-minute open price, extending from the session start to the market close at 4:00 PM EST.
Each line is accompanied by a label positioned 5 bars to the right of the market close (4:00 PM EST), with the text right-aligned and vertically centered on the line.
Users can enable/disable each marker, customize the session time, label text, line color, and text color via the indicator’s settings.
Pivot Highs and Lows:
The indicator calculates pivot highs and lows on the current chart timeframe using the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions.
Pivot highs are marked with green triangles above the bars, and pivot lows are marked with red triangles below the bars.
The pivot period (lookback/lookforward) is user-configurable, allowing flexibility in detecting short-term or longer-term reversals.
Custom Candlesticks:
The indicator overlays custom candlesticks on the chart, colored green for bullish candles (close > open) and red for bearish candles (close < open).
This feature helps visualize price action alongside the open price markers and pivot points.
Timeframe Restriction:
The indicator is designed to work on timeframes of 1 hour or less. If the chart timeframe exceeds 1 hour (e.g., 4-hour, daily), a warning label ("Timeframe > 1H\nIndicator Disabled") is displayed, and no elements are plotted.
Customizable Appearance:
Users can customize the appearance of the open price marker lines, including the line style (solid, dashed, dotted) and line width.
Labels for the open price markers have no background (transparent) and use customizable text colors.

• Enable Alerts: Enable (True) or disable (False) alerts for buy/sell signals.
• Length of MA: Sets the length for the MAs used in trend identification (minimum 1).

Understanding the Outputs
• Cloud Fill: The area between two MAs is filled with a color that reflects the trend (green for uptrend, red for downtrend).
• Table: Shows Buy Volume, Sell Volume, Buy Percentage, Sell Percentage, and the current Market Condition Labels. (If you decide to see them uncomment them from the code simply removing the // in front of the code)
• Colored Candles and Market Condition Labels: Look for green candles and bullish labels for potential buying opportunities, and vice versa for red candles and bearish labels.
Bullish green label appears when short-term MA is above long-term MA AND Buy Volume percentage is greater than 50%.
Red cross for exiting long entry appears when we have bearish volume OR bearish crossover of the MA for the 2 periods.
Bearish red label appears when short-term MA is below long-term MA AND Buy Volume percentage is less than 50%.
Green cross for exiting short entry appears when we have bullish volume OR bullish crossover of the MA for the 2 periods.
• Bullish/Bearish Retracement: The moving averages indicate a potential trend reversal, while the Buy Volume percentage suggests a continuation of the prior trend. The candle color may be green, red, or gray depending on the current price position relative to the moving averages.
• Chop (Gray Candle): The moving averages are flat and the Buy Volume percentage is not significantly above or below 50%.
• Buy/Sell Alerts: The indicator generates alerts based on specific conditions, but these should be used in conjunction with other trading strategies and careful risk management.
