HhLl-OscilatorSimple oscillator which checks how many highs and how many lows the price is making. Parameters are as explained below:
lookback - Checks how many highs and lows it is making in these many bars. Sum of all highs and lows are taken for plotting.
periods - Initial period to check high and lows
multiples - Number of multiples on initial period for which highs and lows are checked
colorCandles - CandleColor based on the oscillator
If periods is 20 and multiples is 5 and loopback is 10
Indicator checks for last 10 bars how many highs/lows are made for 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 periods. Sum of all highs and lows are plotted on the oscillator overlay

Expanded Floor PivotsHello Everyone,
The Expanded Floor Pivots is introduced in the book "Secrets of a Pivot Boss: Revealing Proven Methods for Profiting in the Market " by Franklin Ochoa. He added four new levels: S4, R4, BC and TC. There are many great ideas in the book, such using these levels, following trend, time price opportunity and much more. (Thanks to @tonyjab for pushing me to read this book)
The definition/formula of the levels defined in the book:
r1 = 2 * pivot - Low
r2 = pivot + (High - Low)
r3 = r1 + (High - Low)
r4 = r3 + (r2 - r1)
tc = (pivot - bc) + pivot
pivot = (High + Low + Close) / 3
bc = (High + Low) / 2
s1 = 2 * pivot - High
s2 = pivot - (High - Low)
s3 = s1 - (High - Low)
s4 = s3 - (s1 - s2)
The area between TC and BC is used as Pivot Channel, (blue area in the chart). you can see how it helps on identifying the trend.
Options:
By default the script decides Higher Time Frame but if you want you can set HTF as you wish.
You can choose line style as: Solid, Circles or Cross
and also you have option to show only last period or all historical levels.
Enjoy!
Volume Profile Free Ultra SLI (100 Levels Value Area VWAP) - RRBVolume Profile Free Ultra SLI by RagingRocketBull 2019
Version 1.0
This indicator calculates Volume Profile for a given range and shows it as a histogram consisting of 100 horizontal bars.
This is basically the MAX SLI version with +50 more Pinescript v4 line objects added as levels.
It can also show Point of Control (POC), Developing POC, Value Area/VWAP StdDev High/Low as dynamically moving levels.
Free accounts can't access Standard TradingView Volume Profile, hence this indicator.
There are several versions: Free Pro, Free MAX SLI, Free Ultra SLI, Free History. This is the Free Ultra SLI version. The Differences are listed below:
- Free Pro: 25 levels, +Developing POC, Value Area/VWAP High/Low Levels, Above/Below Area Dimming
- Free MAX SLI: 50 levels, 2x SLI modes for Buy/Sell or even higher res 150 levels
- Free Ultra SLI: 100 levels, packed to the limit, 2x SLI modes for Buy/Sell or even higher res 300 levels
- Free History: auto highest/lowest, historic poc/va levels for each session
Features:
- High-Res Volume Profile with up to 100 levels (line implementation)
- 2x SLI modes for even higher res: 300 levels with 3x vertical SLI, 100 buy/sell levels with 2x horiz SLI
- Calculate Volume Profile on full history
- POC, Developing POC Levels
- Buy/Sell/Total volume modes
- Side Cover
- Value Area, VAH/VAL dynamic levels
- VWAP High/Low dynamic levels with Source, Length, StdDev as params
- Show/Hide all levels
- Dim Non Value Area Zones
- Custom Range with Highlighting
- 3 Anchor points for Volume Profile
- Flip Levels Horizontally
- Adjustable width, offset and spacing of levels
- Custom Color for POC/VA/VWAP levels, Transparency for buy/sell levels
WARNING:
- Compilation Time: 1 min 20 sec
Usage:
- specify max_level/min_level/spacing (required)
- select range (start_bar, range length), confirm with range highlighting
- select volume type: Buy/Sell/Total
- select mode Value Area/VWAP to show corresponding levels
- flip/select anchor point to position the buy/sell levels
- use Horiz Buy/Sell SLI mode with 100 or Vertical SLI with 300 levels if needed
- use POC/Developing POC/VA/VWAP High/Low as S/R levels. Usually daily values from 1-3 days back are used as levels for the current day.
SLI:
use SLI modes to extend the functionality of the indicator:
- Horiz Buy/Sell 2x SLI lets you view 100 Buy/Sell Levels at the same time
- Vertical Max_Vol 3x SLI lets you increase the resolution to 300 levels
- you need at least 2 instances of the indicator attached to the same chart for SLI to work
1) Enable Horiz SLI:
- attach 2 indicator instances to the chart
- make sure all instances have the same min_level/max_level/range/spacing settings
- select volume type for each instance: you can have a buy/sell or buy/total or sell/total SLI. Make sure your buy volume instance is the last attached to be displayed on top of sell/total instances without overlapping.
- set buy_sell_sli_mode to true for indicator instances with volume_type = buy/sell, for type total this is optional.
- this basically tells the script to calculate % lengths based on total volume instead of individual buy/sell volumes and use ext offset for sell levels
- Sell Offset is calculated relative to Buy Offset to stack/extend sell after buy. Buy Offset = Zero - Buy Length. Sell Offset = Buy Offset - Sell Length = Zero - Buy Length - Sell Length
- there are no master/slave instances in this mode, all indicators are equal, poc/va levels are not affected and can work independently, i.e. one instance can show va levels, another - vwap.
2) Enable Vertical SLI:
- attach the first instance and evaluate the full range to roughly determine where is the highest max_vol/poc level i.e. 0..20000, poc is in the bottom half (third, middle etc) or
- add more instances and split the full vertical range between them, i.e. set min_level/max_level of each corresponding instance to 0..10000, 10000..20000 etc
- make sure all instances have the same range/spacing settings
- an instance with a subrange containing the poc level of the full range is now your master instance (bottom half). All other instances are slaves, their levels will be calculated based on the max_vol/poc of the master instance instead of local values
- set show_max_vol_sli to true for the master instance. for slave instances this is optional and can be used to check if master/slave max_vol values match and slave can read the master's value. This simply plots the max_vol value
- you can also attach all instances and set show_max_vol_sli to true in all of them - the instance with the largest max_vol should become the master
Auto/Manual Ext Max_Vol Modes:
- for auto vertical max_vol SLI mode set max_vol_sli_src in all slave instances to the max_vol of the master indicator: "VolumeProfileFree_MAX_RRB: Max Volume for Vertical SLI Mode". It can be tricky with 2+ instances
- in case auto SLI mode doesn't work - assign max_vol_sli_ext in all slave instances the max_vol value of the master indicator manually and repeat on each change
- manual override max_vol_sli_ext has higher priority than auto max_vol_sli_src when both values are assigned, when they are 0 and close respectively - SLI is disabled
- master/slave max_vol values must match on each bar at all times to maintain proper level scale, otherwise slave's levels will look larger than they should relative to the master's levels.
- Max_vol (red) is the last param in the long list of indicator outputs
- the only true max_vol/poc in this SLI mode is the master's max_vol/poc. All poc/va levels in slaves will be irrelevant and are disabled automatically. Slaves can only show VWAP levels.
- VA Levels of the master instance in this SLI mode are calculated based on the subrange, not the whole range and may be inaccurate. Cross check with the full range.
WARNING!
- auto mode max_vol_sli_src is experimental and may not work as expected
- you can only assign auto mode max_vol_sli_src = max_vol once due to some bug with unhandled exception/buffer overflow in Tradingview. Seems that you can clear the value only by removing the indicator instance
- sometimes you may see a "study in error state" error when attempting to set it back to close. Remove indicator/Reload chart and start from scratch
- volume profile may not finish to redraw and freeze in an ugly shape after an UI parameter change when max_vol_sli_src is assigned a max_vol value. Assign it to close - VP should redraw properly, but it may not clear the assigned max_vol value
- you can't seem to be able to assign a proper auto max_vol value to the 3rd slave instance
- 2x Vertical SLI works and tested in both auto/manual, 3x SLI - only manual seems to work (you can have a mixed mode: 2nd instance - auto, 3rd - manual)
Notes:
- This code uses Pinescript v3 compatibility framework
- This code is 20x-30x faster (main for cycle is removed) especially on lower tfs with long history - only 4-5 sec load/redraw time vs 30-60 sec of the old Pro versions
- Instead of repeatedly calculating the total sum of volumes for the whole range on each bar, vol sums are now increased on each bar and passed to the next in the range making it a per range vs per bar calculation that reduces time dramatically
- 100 levels consist of 50 main plot levels and 50 line objects used as alternate levels, differences are:
- line objects are always shown on top of other objects, such as plot levels, zero line and side cover, it's not possible to cover/move them below.
- all line objects have variable lengths, use actual x,y coords and don't need side cover, while all plot levels have a fixed length of 100 bars, use offset and require cover.
- all key properties of line objects, such as x,y coords, color can be modified, objects can be moved/deleted, while this is not possible for static plot levels.
- large width values cause line objects to expand only up/down from center while their length remains the same and stays within the level's start/end points similar to an area style.
- large width values make plot levels expand in all directions (both h/v), beyond level start/end points, sometimes overlapping zero line, making them an inaccurate % length representation, as opposed to line objects/plot levels with area style.
- large width values translate into different widths on screen for line objects and plot levels.
- you can't compensate for this unwanted horiz width expansion of plot levels because width uses its own units, that don't translate into bars/pixels.
- line objects are visible only when num_levels > 50, plot levels are used otherwise
- Since line objects are lines, plot levels also use style line because other style implementations will break the symmetry/spacing between levels.
- if you don't see a volume profile check range settings: min_level/max_level and spacing, set spacing to 0 (or adjust accordingly based on the symbol's precision, i.e. 0.00001)
- you can view either of Buy/Sell/Total volumes, but you can't display Buy/Sell levels at the same time using a single instance (this would 2x reduce the number of levels). Use 2 indicator instances in horiz buy/sell sli mode for that.
- Volume Profile/Value Area are calculated for a given range and updated on each bar. Each level has a fixed length. Offsets control visible level parts. Side Cover hides the invisible parts.
- Custom Color for POC/VA/VWAP levels - UI Style color/transparency can only change shape's color and doesn't affect textcolor, hence this additional option
- Custom Width - UI Style supports only width <= 4, hence this additional option
- POC is visible in both modes. In VWAP mode Developing POC becomes VWAP, VA High and Low => VWAP High and Low correspondingly to minimize the number of plot outputs
- You can't change buy/sell level colors from input (only transparency) - this requires 2x plot outputs => 2x reduces the number of levels to fit the max 64 limit. That's why 2 additional plots are used to dim the non Value Area zones
- You can change level transparency of line objects. Due to Pinescript limitations, only discrete values are supported.
- Inverse transp correlation creates the necessary illusion of "covered" line objects, although they are shown on top of the cover all the time
- If custom lines_transp is set the illusion will break because transp range can't be skewed easily (i.e. transp 0..100 is always mapped to 100..0 and can't be mapped to 50..0)
- transparency can applied to lines dynamically but nva top zone can't be completely removed because plot/mixed type of levels are still used when num_levels < 50 and require cover
- transparency can't be applied to plot levels dynamically from script this can be done only once from UI, and you can't change plot color for the past length bars
- All buy/sell volume lengths are calculated as % of a fixed base width = 100 bars (100%). You can't set show_last from input to change it
- Range selection/Anchoring is not accurate on charts with time gaps since you can only anchor from a point in the future and measure distance in time periods, not actual bars, and there's no way of knowing the number of future gaps in advance.
- Adjust Width for Log Scale mode now also works on high precision charts with small prices (i.e. 0.00001)
- in Adjust Width for Log Scale mode Level1 width extremes can be capped using max deviation (when level1 = 0, shift = 0 width becomes infinite)
- There's no such thing as buy/sell volume, there's just volume, but for the purposes of the Volume Profile method, assume: bull candle = buy volume, bear candle = sell volume

PivotBoss Outside Reversal SetupPATTERN SUMMARY
1. The engulfing bar of a bullish outside reversal setup has a low that is below the prior bar's low (L < L ) and a
close that is above the prior bar's high (C > H ).
2. The engulfing bar of a bearish outside reversal setup has a high that is above the prior bar's high (H > H )
and a close that is below the prior bar's low (C < L ).
3. The engulfing bar is usually 5 to 25 percent larger than the size of the average bar in the lookback period.
PATTERN PSYCHOLOGY
The power behind this pattern lies in the psychology behind the traders involved in this setup. If you have
ever participated in a breakout at support or resistance only to have the market reverse sharply against you, then
you are familiar with the market dynamics of this setup. What exactly is going on at these levels? To understand
this concept is to understand the outside reversal pattern. Basically, market participants are testing the waters
above resistance or below support to make sure there is no new business to be done at these levels. When no
initiative buyers or sellers participate in range extension, responsive participants have all the information they
need to reverse price back toward a new area of perceived value.
As you look at a bullish outside reversal pattern, you will notice that the current bar's low is lower than the
prior bar's low. Essentially, the market is testing the waters below recently established lows to see if a downside
follow-through will occur. When no additional selling pressure enters the market, the result is a flood of buying
pressure that causes a springboard effect, thereby shooting price above the prior bar's highs and creating the
beginning of a bullish advance.
If you recall the child on the trampoline for a moment, you'll realize that the child had to force the bounce
mat down before he could spring into the air. Also, remember Jennifer the cake baker? She initially pushed price
to $20 per cake, which sent a flood of orders into her shop. The flood of buying pressure eventually sent the price
of her cakes to $35 apiece. Basically, price had to test the $20 level before it could rise to $35.
Let's analyze the outside reversal setup in a different light for a moment. One of the reasons I like this setup
is because the two-bar pattern reduces into the wick reversal setup, which we covered earlier in the chapter. If
you are not familiar with candlestick reduction, the idea is simple. You are taking the price data over two or more
candlesticks and combining them to create a single candlestick. Therefore, you will be taking the open, high, low,
and close prices of the bars in question to create a single composite candlestick.
Take a look at Figure 2.13, which illustrates the candlestick reduction of the outside reversal setup.
Essentially, taking the highest high and the lowest low over the two-bar period gives you the range of the
composite candlestick. Then, taking the opening price of the first candle and the closing price of the last candle
will finish off the composite candlestick. Depending on the structure of the bars of the outside reversal setup, the
result of the candlestick reduction will usually be the transformation into a wick reversal setup, which we know to
be quite powerful. Therefore, in many cases the physiology of the outside reversal pattern basically demonstrates
the inherent psychological traits of the wick reversal pattern. This is just another level of analysis that reinforces
my belief in the outside reversal setup.
MACDiver from axis V1.4Indicator that identifies bullish and bearish divergences between price action and the MACD oscillator.

**Version:** 1.0
**Pine Script Version:** 6
**Last Updated:** 2025
Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average + ART**Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (fixed TF) + ATR Volatility Bands**
This script is a Pine Script v5 extension of the original *Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average* by Alex Orekhov (everget).
It adds:
* a **fixed timeframe option** for KAMA
* a separate **ATR panel under the chart**
* **configurable ATR volatility levels** with dynamic coloring.
KAMA adapts its smoothing to market conditions: it speeds up in strong trends and slows down in choppy phases. Here, KAMA can be calculated on any timeframe (e.g. 1D) and overlaid on a lower-timeframe chart (e.g. 1H), so you can track higher-TF trend structure while trading intraday.
The ATR panel visualizes volatility in the same or a separate timeframe and highlights phases of high/low volatility based on user-defined thresholds.
---
### Features
**KAMA (on chart)**
* Standard KAMA parameters: `Length`, `Fast EMA Length`, `Slow EMA Length`, `Source`
* Input: **KAMA Timeframe**
* empty → uses chart timeframe
* any value (e.g. `60`, `240`, `D`, `W`) → calculates KAMA on that fixed TF and maps it to the chart
* Color-changing KAMA line:
* **green** when the selected-TF KAMA is rising
* **red** when it is falling
* Optional *Await Bar Confirmation* to avoid reacting to still-forming bars
* Built-in alert when the KAMA color changes (potential trend shift).
**ATR panel (separate window under the chart)**
* Own inputs: `Show ATR`, `ATR Length`
* **ATR Timeframe** input:
* empty → ATR uses the same TF as KAMA
* custom value → fully independent ATR timeframe
* Two user-defined volatility levels:
* `ATR High Vol Level` – threshold for **high volatility**
* `ATR Low Vol Level` – threshold for **low volatility**
* ATR line coloring:
* **red** when ATR > High Vol Level (high volatility regime)
* **green** when ATR < Low Vol Level (quiet market)
* **blue** in the normal range between the two levels.
---
### How to use
1. Add the script to your chart.
2. Choose a **KAMA Timeframe** (leave empty for chart TF, or set to a higher TF for multi-timeframe trend following).
3. Optionally set a different **ATR Timeframe** to monitor volatility on yet another TF.
4. Adjust `ATR High Vol Level` and `ATR Low Vol Level` to match the instrument and timeframe you trade.
5. Use:
* the **KAMA color changes** as trend / regime signals, and
* the **ATR colors & levels** to quickly see whether you’re trading in a low-, normal- or high-volatility environment.
This combination is designed to keep the chart itself clean (only KAMA on price) while giving you a dedicated volatility dashboard directly underneath.
Fibonacci Degree System This Pine Script creates a sophisticated technical analysis tool that combines Fibonacci retracements with a degree-based cycle system. Here's a comprehensive breakdown:
Core Concept
The indicator maps price movements onto a 360-degree circular framework, treating market cycles like geometric angles. It creates a visual "mesh" where Fibonacci ratios intersect in both price (horizontal) and time (vertical) dimensions.
How It Works
1. Finding Reference Points
The script looks back over a specified period (default 100 bars) to identify:
Highest High: The peak price point
Lowest Low: The trough price point
Time Locations: Exactly which bars these extremes occurred on
These two points form the boundaries of your analysis window.
2. Creating the Fibonacci Grid
Horizontal Lines (Price Levels):
The script divides the price range between high and low into seven key Fibonacci ratios:
0% (Low) - Bottom boundary in red
23.6% - Minor retracement in orange
38.2% - Shallow retracement in yellow
50% - Midpoint in lime green
61.8% - Golden ratio in aqua (most significant)
78.6% - Deep retracement in blue
100% (High) - Top boundary in purple
Each line represents a potential support/resistance level where price might react.
Vertical Lines (Time Cycles):
The same Fibonacci ratios are applied to the time dimension between the high and low bars. If your high and low are 50 bars apart, vertical lines appear at:
Bar 0 (0%)
Bar 12 (23.6%)
Bar 19 (38.2%)
Bar 25 (50%)
Bar 31 (61.8%)
Bar 39 (78.6%)
Bar 50 (100%)
These suggest when price might make significant moves.
3. The Degree Mapping System
The innovative feature maps the time progression to degrees:
0° = Start point (0% time)
85° = 23.6% through the cycle
138° = 38.2% through the cycle
180° = Midpoint (50%)
222° = 61.8% through the cycle (golden angle)
283° = 78.6% through the cycle
360° = Complete cycle (100%)
This treats market movements as circular patterns, similar to how planets orbit or pendulums swing.
Visual Output
When you apply this indicator, you'll see:
A rectangular mesh extending beyond your high-low range (by 150% default)
Color-coded horizontal lines showing price Fibonacci levels
Matching vertical lines showing time Fibonacci intervals
Price labels on the right showing percentage levels
Degree labels at the bottom showing the angular position in the cycle
Intersection points creating a grid of potentially significant price-time coordinates
Trading Application
Traders use this to identify:
Support/Resistance Zones: Where horizontal and vertical lines intersect
Time Targets: When price might reverse (at vertical Fibonacci times)
Cycle Completion: When approaching 360°, a new cycle may begin
Harmonic Patterns: Geometric relationships between price and time
Customization Features
The script offers extensive control:
Lookback period: Adjust cycle length (10-500 bars)
Mesh extension: How far to project the grid forward
Visual toggles: Show/hide horizontal lines, vertical lines, labels
Styling: Line thickness, style (solid/dashed/dotted), colors
Label positioning: Fine-tune text placement for readability
The intersection at 61.8% time and 61.8% price at 222° becomes a key target zone.
This tool essentially converts the abstract concept of market cycles into a concrete, visual geometric framework that traders can analyze and act upon.

Float Rotation TrackerFloat Rotation Tracker - Quick Reference Guide
What is Float Rotation?
Float Rotation = Cumulative Daily Volume ÷ Float
Example:
Float = 5,000,000 shares
Day Volume = 7,500,000 shares
Rotation = 7.5M ÷ 5M = 1.5x (150%)
When rotation hits 1x (100%), every available share has theoretically changed hands at least once during the trading day.
Why It Matters
RotationMeaningImplication0.5x50% of float tradedInterest building1.0x 🔥Full rotationExtreme interest confirmed2.0x 🔥🔥Double rotationVery high volatility3.0x 🔥🔥🔥Triple rotationRare - maximum volatility

Common Questions
Q: Why is my float showing "Manual (no data)"?
A: TradingView doesn't have float data for this stock. Enter the float manually in settings after looking it up on Finviz or Yahoo Finance.
Q: The rotation seems too high/low - is the float wrong?
A: Possibly. Cross-check float on Finviz. Recent offerings or share structure changes may not be reflected in TradingView's data.
Q: What if float rotates early in the day?
A: Early 1x rotation (within first hour) is very bullish - indicates massive interest. Watch for continuation patterns.
Q: High rotation but price is dropping?
A: This is distribution - large holders are selling into demand. High rotation doesn't guarantee price direction, just volatility.
Q: Can I use this for swing trading?
A: The indicator resets daily, so it's designed for intraday use. You could note multi-day rotation patterns manually.

Gap & Go Day Trading Tool - Key Levels, Alerts & Setup GradingVisualizes Gap & Go setups with automatic gap detection, pre-market levels, and breakout signals. Shows: ✅ Gap % with quality rating (5%/10%/20%+) ✅ Pre-market high/low ✅ First candle range ✅ 50% gap fill target ✅ VWAP ✅ Relative volume. Includes setup grading system (A+ to C), entry signals on PM high breakouts, and 6 customizable alerts. Perfect for momentum day traders focusing on gapping stocks.
Full Description
█ OVERVIEW
The Gap & Go indicator automatically identifies and visualizes gap trading setups - one of the most popular momentum day trading strategies. When a stock gaps up significantly from the prior close, it often signals strong buying interest and potential for continuation moves.
This indicator displays all the key levels you need to trade gaps effectively, grades setup quality, and alerts you to breakout opportunities.
█ HOW IT WORKS
The indicator calculates the gap percentage between yesterday's close and today's open, then displays critical support/resistance levels that gap traders watch:
Gap Zone → The price range between prior close and gap open
Pre-Market High/Low → Key breakout and support levels from extended hours
First Candle Range → Opening range that often defines intraday direction
50% Gap Fill → Common retracement target and support level
VWAP → Institutional reference point
█ GAP CLASSIFICATION
Gaps are automatically classified by magnitude:
🔥 Qualifying Gap (5%+) → Meets minimum threshold for gap trading
🔥🔥 Strong Gap (10%+) → Ideal gap size for momentum plays
🔥🔥🔥 Monster Gap (20%+) → Exceptional move requiring extra attention
Background color changes based on gap quality for instant visual identification.
█ SETUP GRADING SYSTEM
The indicator grades each setup from A+ to C based on multiple factors:
- Gap magnitude (qualifying vs strong)
- Relative volume (2x+ vs 5x+ average)
- Price position relative to VWAP
A+ Setup (4-5 points) → High probability
A Setup (3 points) → Good setup
B Setup (2 points) → Moderate
C Setup (0-1 points) → Weak/avoid
█ ENTRY SIGNALS
Triangle signals appear when price breaks above key levels:
▲ Lime Triangle → Breaking above Pre-Market High
▲ Aqua Triangle → Breaking above First Candle High
Signals require volume confirmation by default (configurable).
█ KEY LEVELS DISPLAYED
- Prior Close (Orange) → Gap reference point
- Pre-Market High (Lime) → Primary breakout level
- Pre-Market Low (Red) → Support if gap fails
- First Candle Range (Aqua box) → Opening range breakout levels
- 50% Gap Fill (Yellow dotted) → Common support/target
- VWAP (Purple) → Institutional pivot
█ INFO TABLE

2. Apply this indicator to candidates
3. Check the Setup Grade in the info table
4. Wait for price to consolidate near pre-market high
5. Enter on breakout above PM High with volume confirmation
6. Use 50% gap fill or PM Low as stop loss reference
7. Monitor VWAP - staying above is bullish
█ BEST PRACTICES
✓ Focus on A and A+ setups
✓ Require strong relative volume (5x+)
✓ Trade in the direction of the gap (long for gap ups)
✓ Watch for gap fill as potential support
✓ Be cautious if price falls below VWAP
✓ First 30-60 minutes typically have best momentum
█ TIMEFRAME RECOMMENDATIONS
- 1-minute: Scalping, precise entries
- 5-minute: Most common for gap trading (recommended)
- 15-minute: Swing entries, less noise
█ NOTES
- Pre-market levels require extended hours data enabled
- First candle range is based on the first regular market candle
- Works on stocks, ETFs, and futures
- Gaps down are detected but focus is on gap-up setups
█ DISCLAIMER
This indicator is for educational purposes only. Gap trading involves significant risk. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always use proper risk management and never risk more than you can afford to lose.
Oracle Pivot Engine (OPE) — @darshaksscThe Oracle Pivot Engine (OPE) is a market-structure visualization tool that derives all its levels exclusively from historical price data — specifically, the previous day’s high, low, and mid-range.
It does not provide signals, alerts, entries, exits, predictions, or trade recommendations.
Instead, it creates a non-repainting reference framework that helps users observe how the current session interacts with the prior session’s completed price structure.
All calculations are analytical, static, and based on fully closed candles.
🧠 How It Works (Core Logic Explained)
OPE computes the following values from the completed prior daily candle:
Prior-Day High
Prior-Day Low
Prior-Day Midpoint
Displacement Range = High − Low
This displacement range is used to generate symmetrical upward and downward reference zones.
These levels do not update during the session.
They refresh only once per day when a new daily candle closes.
This ensures the indicator remains fully non-repainting and stable on every intraday chart.
📐 Reference Levels Generated
Using the fixed prior-day displacement range, OPE plots:
1. BUY-Side Reference Map (Upward Bias)
BUY Reference Entry
BUY Reference Stop
BUY T1
BUY T2
BUY T3
BUY T4
BUY T5
BUY T6
These are not trade signals — they are mathematical extensions above the prior-day midpoint for structural interpretation only.
2. SELL-Side Reference Map (Downward Bias)
SELL Reference Entry
SELL Reference Stop
SELL T1
SELL T2
SELL T3
SELL T4
SELL T5
SELL T6
Again, these levels are not directives.
They are mirrored displacement extensions below the prior-day midpoint.
📊 Pivot Zone & Bands
The indicator includes optional visual layers derived from the same prior-day pivots:
Pivot High–Low Zone Shading → shows the prior-day full range
Pivot Midline → prior-day mid-price
Outer Displacement Bands → extended contextual boundaries
These are purely visual boundaries meant to improve market context.
🧾 Dashboard / HUD Explanation
A compact on-chart HUD summarizes all values.
It displays:
Section | Information (All Historical)
Prior-Day Pivots | High, Low, Mid, Range
BUY Map | Entry, Stop, T1–T6
SELL Map | Entry, Stop, T1–T6
The HUD allows you to quickly review:
Where the current price is relative to the previous day’s structure
How far price is from each level
Whether the session is operating inside or outside the prior-day displacement zones
Everything shown is static, non-repainting , and for reference only .
📊 How to Analyze It
✔ 1. Contextual Awareness
OPE helps users visually compare current intraday price to prior daily structure.
You can observe whether price is:
Inside yesterday’s high/low zone
Above the prior-day displacement
Below the prior-day displacement
This offers a clearer understanding of daily context and volatility.
✔ 2. Structural Symmetry
The BUY-side and SELL-side maps extend from the same pivot logic.
This can help visualize:
Expansion away from the prior-day midpoint
Compression within the prior-day range
Symmetrical displacement around key reference levels
Again — these are observational insights , not signals.
✔ 3. Range Interaction
As the session unfolds, users often study:
How price reacts around prior-day midpoint
Whether price is gravitating toward or away from the displacement levels
How intraday swings behave within these historical boundaries
This type of analysis is contextual , not predictive.
⚠️ Important Disclosures
This script does NOT generate trading signals.
It does NOT predict future price movement.
It does NOT contain advice, instructions, recommendations, or strategies.
All levels are derived exclusively from historical daily candle data .
This is strictly an informational visualization tool meant to support chart analysis.
Past price levels do not guarantee any future price behavior.

Directional Imbalance Index [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Directional Imbalance Index is designed to track market strength by counting how often price sets new highs or lows over a defined lookback period. Every time a bar forms a new extreme, the indicator records a +1 count for either bullish (highs) or bearish (lows). These counts are aggregated into a rolling calculation, allowing traders to see which side dominates and how directional imbalance evolves.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Each new highest high → adds a bullish count (+1).
Each new lowest low → adds a bearish count (+1).
Counts are stored inside arrays over a user-defined Calculation Period .
for i = 0 to period-1
h = high
l = low
if h == upper
countUp.push(1)
if l == lower
countDn.push(1)
The balance between bullish and bearish counts highlights dominance and imbalance.
Normalized percentages help compare both sides (e.g., 65% bullish vs 35% bearish).
🔵 FEATURES
Counts new highs/lows over a chosen Highest/Lowest Length .
Aggregates values over a rolling Calculation Period .
Plots cumulative bullish vs bearish totals in the subchart.
Displays % share of bulls vs bears from total counts.
On-chart labels mark bars where a count was added.
Plots reference lines of the current upper (high) and lower (low) ranges.
Dynamic fill between bullish/bearish plots to visualize which side dominates.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Look for persistent bullish imbalance (bull % > bear %) as confirmation of upward momentum.
Look for persistent bearish imbalance (bear % > bull %) as confirmation of downward momentum.
Watch for shifts in % dominance — often early signs of trend reversal or weakening strength.
Use labels on the chart to visually confirm which bars contributed to directional bias.
Combine with trend or volume tools to confirm whether imbalance aligns with market direction.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Directional Imbalance Index offers a systematic way to measure directional pressure. By counting how often price pushes into new territory, the indicator reveals whether bulls or bears are taking control. This makes it a valuable tool for detecting early signs of trend continuation or exhaustion, helping traders align with the side most likely to dominate.

ICS🏛️ Institutional Confluence Suite (ICS) Indicator
The Institutional Confluence Suite is a powerful and highly customizable TradingView indicator built to help traders identify key institutional trading concepts across multiple timeframes. It visualizes essential market components like Market Structures (MS), Order Blocks (OB)/Breaker Blocks (BB), Liquidity Zones, and Volume Profile, providing a confluence of institutional price action data.
📈 Key Features & Components
1. Market Structures (MS)
Purpose: Automatically identifies and labels shifts in market trends (Market Structure Shift, MSS) and continuations (Break of Structure, BOS).
Timeframe Detection: You can select detection across Short Term, Intermediate Term, or Long Term swings to match your trading horizon.
Visualization: Plots colored lines (Bullish: Teal, Bearish: Red) to mark the structures and optional text labels (BOS/MSS) for clear identification.
2. Order & Breaker Blocks (OB/BB)
Purpose: Detects and projects potential Supply and Demand zones based on recent price action that led to a swing high or low.
Block Types: Distinguishes between standard Order Blocks and Breaker Blocks (OBs that fail to hold and are traded through, often serving as support/resistance in the opposite direction).
Customization:
Detection Term: Adjusts sensitivity (Short, Intermediate, Long Term).
Display Limit: Sets the maximum number of recent Bullish and Bearish blocks to display.
Price Reference: Option to use the Candle Body (Open/Close) or Candle Wicks (High/Low) to define the block boundaries.
Visualization: Displays blocks as colored boxes (Bullish: Green, Bearish: Red) extending into the future, with a dotted line marking the 50% equilibrium level. Breaker Blocks are indicated by a change in color/line style upon being broken.
3. Buyside & Sellside Liquidity (BSL/SSL)
Purpose: Highlights areas where retail stops/limit orders are likely clustered, often represented by a series of relatively equal highs (Buyside Liquidity) or lows (Sellside Liquidity).
Detection Term: Adjustable sensitivity (Short, Intermediate, Long Term).
Margin: Uses a margin (derived from ATR) to group similar swing points into a single liquidity zone.
Visualization: Plots a line and text label marking the swing point, and a box indicating the clustered liquidity zone.
4. Liquidity Voids (LV) / Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Purpose: Identifies areas where price moved sharply and inefficiency was created, often referred to as Fair Value Gaps or Imbalances. These are price ranges where minimal trading volume occurred.
Threshold: Uses a multiplier applied to the 200-period ATR to filter for significant gaps.
Mode: Can be set to Present (only show voids near the current price) or Historical (show all detected voids).
Visualization: Fills the price gap with colored boxes (Bullish/Bearish zones), often segmented to represent the price delivery across the gap.
5. Enhanced Liquidity Detection
Purpose: A complementary feature that uses volume and price action to highlight areas of high liquidity turnover, potentially indicating stronger Support and Resistance zones.
Calculation: Utilizes a volume-weighted approach to color-grade liquidity zones based on their significance.
Visualization: Plots shaded boxes (gradient-colored) around swing highs/lows, with text displaying the normalized volume strength.
6. Swing Highs/Lows
Purpose: Directly marks the price points identified as Swing Highs and Swing Lows based on the lookback periods.
Timeframe Detection: Can be enabled for Short Term, Intermediate Term, or Long Term swings.
Visualization: Plots a small colored dot/label (e.g., "⦁") at the swing point.
This indicator is an invaluable tool for traders employing ICT (Inner Circle Trader), Smart Money Concepts (SMC), or general price action strategies, as it automatically aggregates and displays these critical structural and liquidity elements.

Trade occurs during optimal session hours
Recent momentum is upward
Price not too close to daily high
Strong bullish candle forms
Short Entry Signal uses opposite conditions
Exit Signals trigger when opposing timeframe confluence reaches threshold (default: 3 timeframes)
Recommended Workflow
Select your asset and primary trading timeframe
Observe the dashboard - Look for rows showing mostly green (bullish) or red (bearish)
Wait for alignment - The indicator will show arrows when confluence requirements are met
Check the bottom rows - Review ORB levels and daily ranges for context
Set alerts - Enable TradingView alerts using the built-in alert conditions

Market Structure Volume Time Velocity ProfileThis is the Market Structure Volume Time Velocity Profile (MSVTVP). It combines event-based profiling with advanced metrics like Time and Velocity (Flow Rate). Instead of fixed time periods, profiles are anchored to critical market events (Swings, Structure Breaks, Delta Breaks), giving you a precise view of value development during specific market phases.
## The 3 Dimensions of the Market
Unlike standard tools that only show Volume, MSVTVP allows you
to switch between three critical metrics:
1. **VOLUME Profile (The "Where"):**
* Shows standard acceptance. High volume nodes (HVN)
are magnets for price.
2. **TIME Profile (The "How Long"):**
* Similar to TPO, it measures how long price spent at each
level.
* **High Time:** True acceptance and fair value.
* **Low Time:** Rejection or rapid movement.
3. **VELOCITY Profile (The "How Fast"):**
* Measures the **speed of trading** (Contracts per Second).
This reveals the hidden intent of market participants.
* **High Velocity (Fast Flow):** Aggression. Initiative
buyers/sellers are hitting market orders rapidly. Often
seen at breakouts or in liquidity vacu.
* **Low Velocity (Slow Flow):** Absorption. Massive passive
limit orders are slowing price down despite high volume.
Often seen at major reversals ("hitting a brick wall").
Key Features:
1. **Event-Based Profile Anchoring:** The indicator starts a new
profile based on one of three user-selected events
('Profile Anchor'):
- **Swing:** A new profile begins when the 'impulse baseline'
(derived from intra-bar delta) changes. This baseline
adjusts when a new **price pivot** is confirmed: When a
price **high** forms, the baseline moves to the **lower**
of its previous level or the peak delta (max of
delta O/C) at the pivot. When a price **low** forms, it
moves to the **higher** of its previous level or the
trough delta (min of delta O/C) at the pivot.
- **Structure:** A new profile begins immediately on the bar
that *confirms* a market structure break (e.g., a new HH
or LL, based on a sequence of price pivots).
- **Delta:** A new profile begins immediately on the bar
that *confirms* a break in the *cumulative delta's*
market structure (e.g., a new HH or LL in the delta).
Both 'Swing' and 'Delta' anchors are derived from the same
**continuous (non-resetting) Cumulative Volume Profile Delta (CVPD)**,
which is built from the intra-bar statistical analysis.
2. **Statistical Profile Engine:** For each bar in the anchored
period, the indicator builds a volume profile on a lower
'Intra-Bar Timeframe'. Instead of simple tick counting, it
uses advanced statistical models:
- **Allocation ('Allot model'):** 'PDF' (Probability Density
Function) distributes volume proportionally across the
bar's range based on an assumed statistical model
(e.g., T4-Skew). 'Classic' assigns all volume to
the close.
- **Buy/Sell Split ('Volume Estimator'):** 'Dynamic'
applies a model that analyzes candle wicks and
recent trend to estimate buy/sell pressure. 'Classic'
classifies all volume based on the candle color.
3. **Visualization & Lag:** The indicator plots the final
profile (as a polygon) and the developing statistical
lines (POC, VA, VWAP, StdDev).
- **Note on Lag:** All anchor events require `Pivot Right Bars`
for confirmation.
- In 'Structure' and 'Delta' mode, the developing lines
(POC, VA, etc.) are plotted using a **non-repainting**
method (showing the value from `pivRi` bars ago).
- In 'Swing' mode, the profile is plotted **retroactively**,
starting *from the bar where the pivot occurred*. The
developing lines are also plotted with this full
`pivRi` lag to align with the past data.
4. **Flexible Display Modes:** The finalized profile can be displayed
in three ways: 'Up/Down' (buy vs. sell), 'Total' (combined
volume), and 'Delta' (net difference).
5. **Dynamic Row Sizing:** Includes an option ('Rows per Percent')
to automatically adjust the number of profile rows (buckets)
based on the profile's price range.
6. **Integrated Alerts:** Includes 13 alerts that trigger for:
- A new profile reset ('Profile was resetted').
- Price crossing any of the 6 developing levels (POC,
VA High/Low, VWAP, StdDev High/Low).
- **Alert Lag Assumption:** In 'Swing' mode, alerts are
delayed to match the retroactively plotted lines.
In 'Structure' and 'Delta' modes, alerts fire in
**real-time** based on the *current price* crossing
the *current (repainting)* value of the metric, which
may **differ from the non-repainting plotted line.**
**Caution: Real-Time Data Behavior (Intra-Bar Repainting)**
This indicator uses high-resolution intra-bar data. As a result, the
values on the **current, unclosed bar** (the real-time bar) will
update dynamically as new intra-bar data arrives. This includes
the values used for real-time alerts in 'Structure' and
'Delta' modes.

Easy [CHE] Easy — Minimalist Pine Script for detecting EMA direction changes to define fixed price zones for simple support and resistance visualization, ideal for manual trading workflows.
Summary
This indicator's programming is kept minimalist and super simple, with core logic in under 20 lines for easy comprehension and modification. It creates fixed price zones based on divergences between a base exponential moving average and its smoother counterpart, helping traders spot potential consolidation or reversal areas without dynamic adjustments. By locking the zone at the high and low of the signal bar, it avoids over-expansion in volatile conditions, offering a stable reference line colored by price position relative to the zone. This approach differs from expanding channels by prioritizing simplicity and persistence until a new qualifying signal, reducing visual clutter while highlighting directional bias through midpoint coloring.
Motivation: Why this design?
Traders often face noisy signals from moving averages that flip frequently in sideways markets or lag during breakouts, leading to premature entries or missed opportunities. This indicator addresses that by focusing on confirmed direction shifts between the base and smoothed averages, then anchoring a non-expanding zone to capture the initial price range of the shift. The result is a cleaner tool for marking equilibrium levels, assuming price respects these bounds in ranging or mildly trending conditions.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
- Reference baseline: Traditional moving average crossovers or simple channels that update every bar.
- Architecture differences:
- Zones are set only on new divergence signals and remain fixed until reset by a gap from the prior zone.
- No ongoing high-low expansion; relies on persistent variables to hold bounds across bars.
- Midpoint plotting with conditional coloring based on close position, plus a highlight for zone initiations.
- Practical effect: Charts show persistent horizontal references instead of drifting lines, making it easier to gauge if price is rejecting or embracing the zone—useful for avoiding false breaks in low-volatility setups.
How it works (technical)
The indicator first computes a base exponential moving average of closing prices over a user-defined length, then applies a second exponential moving average to smooth that base. It checks if both the base and smoothed values are increasing or decreasing compared to their prior values, indicating aligned direction. A signal triggers when this alignment breaks, marking a potential shift.
On a new signal, if the current bar's high and low fall outside any existing zone (or none exists), the zone bounds update to those extremes and persist via dedicated variables. The midpoint of these bounds becomes the primary plot line, colored green if below the close (bullish lean), red if above (bearish lean), or gray otherwise. A secondary thick line highlights the midpoint briefly when a zone first sets, aiding visual confirmation. No higher timeframe data or external fetches are used, so updates occur on each bar close without lookahead.
Parameter Guide
EMA Length — Sets the period for the base moving average; longer values smooth more, reducing signal frequency but increasing lag. Default: 50. Trade-offs/Tips: Shorter for faster response in intraday charts (risks noise); longer for daily trends (may miss early shifts).
Smoother Length — Defines the period for the secondary smoothing on the base average; higher values dampen minor wiggles for stabler direction checks. Default: 3. Trade-offs/Tips: Keep low (2–5) for sensitivity; increase to 7+ if zones trigger too often in choppy markets, at cost of delayed signals.
Reading & Interpretation
The main circle plot at the zone midpoint serves as a dynamic equilibrium line: green suggests price is above the zone (potential strength), red indicates below (potential weakness), and gray shows containment within bounds (neutral consolidation). A sudden thick foreground line at the midpoint flags a fresh zone start, prompting review of the prior bar's context. Absence of a plot means no active zone, implying reliance on price action alone until the next signal.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
- Trend following: Enter long on green midpoint after a higher low touches the zone lower bound, confirmed by structure like higher highs; filter shorts similarly on red with lower highs.
- Exits/Stops: Use the opposite zone bound as a conservative stop (e.g., below lower for longs); trail aggressively to midpoint on strong moves, tightening near gray neutrality.
- Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Defaults work across forex and stocks on 1H–Daily; for crypto volatility, shorten EMA Length to 20–30. Pair with volume oscillators for confirmation, avoiding isolated use.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
- Repaint/confirmation: Plots update on bar close using historical closes, so confirmed signals hold; live bars may shift until close but without future references.
- security()/HTF: Not used, eliminating related repaint risks.
- Resources: Minimal overhead—no loops, arrays, or bar limits exceeded; suitable for real-time on any timeframe.
- Known limits: Fixed zones may lag in strong trends (price drifts away without reset); signals skip if no gap from prior zone, potentially missing clustered shifts. Assumes standard OHLC data; untested on non-equity assets.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with EMA Length at 50 and Smoother Length at 3 for balanced daily charts. If signals fire too frequently (e.g., in ranges), extend EMA Length to 100 for fewer but stabler zones. For sluggish response in trends, drop Smoother Length to 2 and EMA Length to 30, monitoring for added noise. In high-vol setups, widen both to 75/5 to filter extremes, trading speed for reliability.

Holographic Market Microstructure | AlphaNattHolographic Market Microstructure | AlphaNatt
A multidimensional, holographically-rendered framework designed to expose the invisible forces shaping every candle — liquidity voids, smart money footprints, order flow imbalances, and structural evolution — in real time.
---
📘 Overview
The Holographic Market Microstructure (HMS) is not a traditional indicator. It’s a visual architecture built to interpret the true anatomy of the market — a living data structure that fuses price, volume, and liquidity into one coherent holographic layer.
Instead of reacting to candles, HMS visualizes the market’s underlying micro-dynamics : where liquidity hides, where volume flows, and how structure morphs as smart money accumulates or distributes.
Designed for system-based traders, volume analysts, and liquidity theorists who demand to see the unseen — the invisible grid driving every price movement.
---
🔬 Core Analytical Modules
Microstructure Analysis
Deconstructs each bar’s internal composition to identify imbalance between aggressive buying and selling. Using a configurable Imbalance Ratio and Liquidity Threshold , the algorithm marks low-liquidity zones and price inefficiencies as “liquidity voids.”
• Detects hidden supply/demand gaps.
• Quantifies micro-level absorption and exhaustion.
• Reveals flow compression and expansion phases.
Smart Money Tracking
Applies advanced volume-rate-of-change and price momentum relationships to map institutional activity.
• Accumulation Zones – Where price rises on expanding volume.
• Distribution Zones – Where price declines on rising volume.
• Automatically visualized as glowing boxes, layered through time to simulate footprint persistence.
Fractal Structure Mapping
Reveals the recursive nature of price formation. HMS detects fractal highs/lows, then connects them into an evolving structure.
• Defines nested market structure across multiple scales.
• Maps trend progression and transition points.
• Renders with adaptive glow lines to reflect depth and strength.
Volume Heat Map
Transforms historical volume data into a 3D holographic heat projection.
• Each band represents a volume-weighted price level.
• Gradient brightness = relative participation intensity.
• Helps identify volume nodes, voids, and liquidity corridors.
HUD Display System
Real-time analytical dashboard summarizing the system’s internal metrics directly on the chart.
• Flow, Structure, Smart$, Liquidity, and Divergence — all live.
• Designed for both scalpers and swing traders to assess micro-context instantly.

🧠 Smart Money Intelligence Layer
The Smart Money Index dynamically evaluates the harmony (or conflict) between price momentum and volume acceleration. When institutions accumulate or distribute discreetly, volume surges ahead of price. HMS detects this divergence and overlays it as glowing smart money zones.
◈ ACCUM → Institutional absorption, early uptrend formation.
◈ DISTRIB → Distribution and top-heavy conditions.
○ IDLE → Neutral flow equilibrium.
Divergences between price and volume are signaled using holographic alerts ( ⚠ ALERT ) to highlight exhaustion or trap conditions — often precursors to structural reversals.
---
🌀 Fractal Market Structure Engine
The fractal subsystem recursively identifies local pivot symmetry, connecting micro-structural highs and lows into a holographic skeleton.
• Bullish Structure — Higher highs & higher lows align (▲ BULLISH).
• Bearish Structure — Lower highs & lower lows dominate (▼ BEARISH).
• Ranging — Fractal symmetry balance (◆ RANGING).
Each transition is visually represented through adaptive glow intensity, producing a living contour of market evolution .
---
🔥 Volume Heat Map Projection
The heatmap acts as a volumetric X-ray of the recent 100–300 bars. Each horizontal segment reflects liquidity density, rendered with gradient opacity from cold (inactive) to hot (highly active).
• Detects hidden accumulation shelves and distribution ridges.
• Identifies imbalanced liquidity corridors (voids).
• Reveals the invisible scaffolding of the order book.
When combined with smart money zones and structure lines, it creates a multi-layered holographic perspective — allowing traders to see liquidity clusters and their interaction with evolving structure in real time.

💎 Holographic Visual Engine
Every element of HMS is dynamically color-mapped to its visual theme . Each theme carries a distinct personality:
Aeon — Neon blue plasma aesthetic; futuristic and fluid.
Cyber — High-contrast digital energy; circuit-like clarity.
Quantum — Deep space gradients; reflective of non-linear flow.
Neural — Organic transitions; biological intelligence simulation.
Plasma — Vapor-bright gradients; high-energy reactive feedback.
Crystal — Minimalist, transparent geometry; pristine data visibility.
Optional Glow Effects and Pulse Animations create a living hologram that responds to real-time market conditions.

Close-Only Market StructureDYOR NFA
Function of the Close-Only Market Structure Script
The script is a custom indicator designed to display the market's structural trend based only on closing prices, ignoring price wicks (highs and lows) to focus on conviction.
pivotLengthInt Input: This user setting controls the sensitivity of the structure detection. It determines how many bars to look left and right to define a swing point (e.g., a setting of 5 means a bar's close must be the highest/lowest of the 5 preceding and 5 succeeding bars).
Swing Point Identification (SH/SL): It uses the ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() functions on the close price series to define Swing Highs (SH) and Swing Lows (SL).
Structure Tracking (structureType): It compares the most recent confirmed SH and SL against the immediately preceding ones (prevSH and prevSL) to classify the trend as one of the following four states:
HH (Higher High, Higher Low): Strong Uptrend
LL (Lower High, Lower Low): Strong Downtrend
HL/LH: Complex structure, consolidation, or reversal zones.
Structure Lines: It plots two continuous stepped lines (lastSH and lastSL) that hold the price of the most recent confirmed swing points, visually defining the current structure boundaries.
BOS Detection (Break of Structure): It identifies and plots a marker (BOS) when the current bar's close definitively breaks (closes above) the lastSH or closes below the lastSL, signaling a continuation of the trend or a major structural change.
Visual Confirmation:
Plots small SH/SL labels at the confirmed swing points.
Plots small HH/HL/LH/LL labels at the swing points to show the confirmed structural state.
Applies a light background color (green for bullish/ranging-up, red for bearish/ranging-down) for an at-a-glance view of the bias.
Alerts: It provides conditions for setting up notifications when a Bullish BOS or Bearish BOS occurs.
🚀 How to Use the Script
Open TradingView: Go to the chart where you want to apply the indicator.
Open Pine Editor: Click the Pine Editor tab at the bottom of the screen.
Paste and Save:
Copy the final, corrected Pine Script code.

X Tail that Wagsintraday session-framework and ETH-anchored VWAP tool for TradingView. It draws today’s OVN (ETH) high/mid/low, today’s RTH-day open, previous day open/high/low, and a carried ETH VWAP handle (yesterday’s 4:00 PM NY VWAP, projected forward) to give you a clean, non-repainting scaffold for bias, structure, and execution. All timestamps are New York–local with DST handled explicitly, so historical sessions align correctly across time changes.
Key Capabilities
ETH OVN Range (18:00 → 09:30 NY)
Captures the rolling overnight high/low and computes the mid; at 09:30 NY it locks those levels and extends them to 16:00 NY (same day).
Optional labels (size/color configurable) placed slightly to the right of the 4 PM timestamp for readability.
Daily Handles (Today & Previous Day)
Today’s open line starts at the ETH open (anchor preserved) and extends toward 4 PM NY (or up to the “current bar + 5 bars” cap), with label control.
Previous day open/high/low plotted as discrete reference lines for carry-over structure.
ETH-Anchored VWAP (Live) + Bands
ETH-anchored VWAP runs only during the active ETH session (DST-aware).
Optional VWAP bands (0.5×, 1.0×, 2.0× multipliers) plotted as line-break series.
Carried ETH VWAP Handle (PD 4 PM Snapshot)
At 16:00 NY, the script snapshots the final ETH VWAP value.
On the next ETH open, it projects that value as a static dashed line through the session (non-mutating, non-repainting), with optional label.
Labeling & Styling
Single-toggle label system with color and five sizes.
Per-line color/width controls for quick visual hierarchy.
Internal “tail” logic keeps right endpoints near price (open-anchored lines extend to min(4 PM, now + 5 bars)), avoiding chart-wide overdraw.
Robust Session Logic
All session boundaries computed in NY local time; DST rules applied for historical bars.
Cross-midnight windows handled safely (no gaps or misalignment around day rolls).
Primary Use Cases
Session Bias & Context
Use OVN H/M/L and today’s open to define structural bias zones before RTH begins. A break-and-hold above OVN mid, for example, can filter long ideas; conversely, rejection at OVN high can warn of mean reversion.
Carry-Forward Mean/Value Reference
The carried ETH VWAP (PD 4 PM) acts as a “value memory” line for the next day. Traders can:
Fade tests away from it in balanced conditions,
Use it as a pullback/acceptance gauge during trends,
Track liquidity grabs when price spikes through and reclaims.
Execution Planning & Risk
Anchor stops/targets around PD H/L and OVN H/M/L for well-defined invalidation.
Combine with your entry model (order-flow, momentum, or pattern) to time fades at range extremes or momentum breaks from OVN mid.
Confluence Mapping
Layer the tool with opening range tools, HTF zones, or profile/VWAPs (weekly/daily) to spot high-quality confluence where multiple references cluster.
Regime & Day-Type Read
Quickly see whether RTH accepts/rejects the OVN range or gravitates to PD VWAP handle, helping classify the day (trend, balanced, double-distribution, etc.).
Quick Start
Apply to your intraday chart (any instrument supported by TradingView; best on ≤15m for live intraday context).
In Current Day group, keep Open and OVN HL on; optionally display the mid.
In Previous Day group, enable PD Open/HL for carry-over levels.
Enable AVWAP if you want live ETH-anchored VWAP and its Bands for distance context.
Keep PD VWAP on to project yesterday’s 4 PM ETH VWAP as a static dashed line into today.
Use the Label group to size/color the on-chart tags.
Settings Overview (Plain-English)
Label: Toggle labels on/off; choose label text color and size.
Current Day:
Open (color/width) — daily open line anchored at ETH open.
OVN HL (and Mid) — overnight high/low and midpoint, locked at 09:30 and extended to 16:00.
AVWAP + Bands — ETH-anchored VWAP with optional 0.5×/1×/2× bands.
Previous Day:
PD Open/HL — yesterday’s daily handles.
PD VWAP — the carried snapshot of yesterday’s 4 PM ETH VWAP projected forward (dashed).
Notes & Best Practices
Time Zone: All session logic is hard-coded to America/New_York and DST-robust. No manual DST tweaks required.
Non-Repainting: The carried PD VWAP line is a snapshot; once drawn, it does not back-fill or mutate.
Intraday Use: Designed for intraday execution. It will display on higher TFs, but the session granularity is most informative at ≤15m.
Performance: Script caps lines/labels (500) and uses short “tails” to keep charts responsive.
Compatibility: Uses request.security(..., "D", series, lookahead_on) intentionally to lock daily handles early for planning; this is by design.
Typical Playbook Examples
Fade Extremes in Balance: As RTH opens inside OVN, look for rejection wicks at OVN High with confluence from PD VWAP handle overhead; risk above OVN High.
Trend Continuation: In directional sessions, acceptances above OVN Mid with price pulling back to the live ETH VWAP can offer continuation entries.
Reversion to Value: Sharp extensions away from the carried PD VWAP that quickly stall often revert to that handle; use it as a target or as an acceptance test.
