Bearish Alternate Flag Patterns [theEccentricTrader]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator automatically draws bearish alternate flag patterns and price projections derived from the ranges that constitute the patterns.
█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a close price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a close price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Peak and Trough Prices (Basic)
• The peak price of a complete swing high is the high price of either the red candle that completes the swing high or the high price of the preceding green candle, depending on which is higher.
• The trough price of a complete swing low is the low price of either the green candle that completes the swing low or the low price of the preceding red candle, depending on which is lower.
Historic Peaks and Troughs
The current, or most recent, peak and trough occurrences are referred to as occurrence zero. Previous peak and trough occurrences are referred to as historic and ordered numerically from right to left, with the most recent historic peak and trough occurrences being occurrence one.
Broken and Unbroken Peaks and Troughs
Upon the completion of a new swing low the high of the green candle that completes the swing low will be above, below or equal to the current peak price. And similarly, upon the completion of a new swing high the low of the red candle that completes the swing high will be above, below or equal to the current trough price.
If the high price of the green candle that completes the current swing low is higher than or equal to the current peak price then the current peak is broken. If the high of the green candle that completes the current swing low is below the current peak price, then the current peak is unbroken.
Similarly, if the low price of the red candle that completes the current swing high is lower than or equal to the current trough price then the current trough is broken. If the low price of the red candle that completes the current swing high is above the current trough price, then the current trough is unbroken.
Range
The range is simply the difference between the current peak and current trough prices, generally expressed in terms of points or pips.
Upper Trends
• A return line uptrend is formed when the current peak price is higher than the preceding peak price.
• A downtrend is formed when the current peak price is lower than the preceding peak price.
• A double-top is formed when the current peak price is equal to the preceding peak price.
Lower Trends
• An uptrend is formed when the current trough price is higher than the preceding trough price.
• A return line downtrend is formed when the current trough price is lower than the preceding trough price.
• A double-bottom is formed when the current trough price is equal to the preceding trough price.
Wave Cycles
A wave cycle is here defined as a complete two-part move between a swing high and a swing low, or a swing low and a swing high. The first swing high or swing low will set the course for the sequence of wave cycles that follow; for example a chart that begins with a swing low will form its first complete wave cycle upon the formation of the first complete swing high and vice versa.

Retracement and Extension Ratios
Retracement and extension ratios are calculated by dividing the current range by the preceding range and multiplying the answer by 100. Retracement ratios are those that are equal to or below 100% of the preceding range and extension ratios are those that are above 100% of the preceding range.
Bullish and Bearish Alternate Flag Patterns
• Bullish alternate flags are composed of one peak and two troughs. The second trough being higher than the first.
• Bearish alternate flags are composed of one trough and two peaks. The second peak being lower than the first.
In this script I have used minimum and maximum retracement and extension ratios to set parameters for pattern identification:
• Wave 1 of the pattern, referred to as AB, is set to a minimum ratio of 100%.
• Wave 2 of the pattern, referred to as BC, is set to a maximum ratio of 30%.

█ LIMITATIONS
All green and red candle calculations are based on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. This may cause some unexpected behaviour on some markets and timeframes. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with.

• A double-bottom candle is one that closes with a low price that is equal to the low price of the preceding candle.
Muti-Part Upper and Lower Candle Trends
• A multi-part higher high trend begins with the formation of a new higher high and continues until a new lower high ends the trend.
• A multi-part lower high trend begins with the formation of a new lower high and continues until a new higher high ends the trend.
• A multi-part higher low trend begins with the formation of a new higher low and continues until a new lower low ends the trend.
• A multi-part lower low trend begins with the formation of a new lower low and continues until a new higher low ends the trend.
█ FEATURES
Plots
Green up-arrows, with the number of the trend part, denote higher high trends. Red down-arrows, with the number of the trend part, denote lower high trends.
█ LIMITATIONS
Some higher timeframe candles on tickers with larger lookbacks such as the DXY , do not actually contain all the open, high, low and close (OHLC) data at the beginning of the chart. Instead, they use the close price for open, high and low prices. So, while we can determine whether the close price is higher or lower than the preceding close price, there is no way of knowing what actually happened intra-bar for these candles. And by default candles that close at the same price as the open price, will be counted as green.
Wavemeter [theEccentricTrader]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator is a representation of my take on price action based wave cycle theory. The indicator counts the number of confirmed wave cycles, keeps a rolling tally of the average wave length, wave height and frequency, and displays the statistics in a table. The indicator also displays the current wave measurements as an optional feature.
█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a high price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a low price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Peak and Trough Prices (Basic)
• The peak price of a complete swing high is the high price of either the red candle that completes the swing high or the high price of the preceding green candle, depending on which is higher.
• The trough price of a complete swing low is the low price of either the green candle that completes the swing low or the low price of the preceding red candle, depending on which is lower.
Historic Peaks and Troughs
The current, or most recent, peak and trough occurrences are referred to as occurrence zero. Previous peak and trough occurrences are referred to as historic and ordered numerically from right to left, with the most recent historic peak and trough occurrences being occurrence one.
Wave Cycles
A wave cycle is here defined as a complete two-part move between a swing high and a swing low, or a swing low and a swing high. As can be seen in the example above, the first swing high or swing low will set the course for the sequence of wave cycles that follow; a chart that begins with a swing low will form its first complete wave cycle upon the formation of the first complete swing high and vice versa.
Wave Length
Wave length is here measured in terms of bar distance between the start and end of a wave cycle. For example, if the current wave cycle ends on a swing low the wave length will be the difference in bars between the current swing low and current swing high. In such a case, if the current swing low completes on candle 100 and the current swing high completed on candle 95, we would simply subtract 95 from 100 to give us a wave length of 5 bars.
Average wave length is here measured in terms of total bars as a proportion as total waves. The average wavelength is calculated by dividing the total candles by the total wave cycles.
Wave Height
Wave height is here measured in terms of current range. For example, if the current peak price is 100 and the current trough price is 80, the wave height will be 20.
Amplitude
Amplitude is here measured in terms of current range divided by two. For example if the current peak price is 100 and the current trough price is 80, the amplitude would be calculated by subtracting 80 from 100 and dividing the answer by 2 to give us an amplitude of 10.
Frequency
Frequency is here measured in terms of wave cycles per second (Hertz). For example, if the total wave cycle count is 10 and the amount of time it has taken to complete these 10 cycles is 1-year (31,536,000 seconds), the frequency would be calculated by dividing 10 by 31,536,000 to give us a frequency of 0.00000032 Hz.
Range
The range is simply the difference between the current peak and current trough prices, generally expressed in terms of points or pips.

Table
The table is colour coded, consists of two columns and, as many as, nine rows. Blue cells display the total wave cycle count and average wave measurements. Green cells display the current wave measurements. And the final row in column one, coloured black, displays the sample period. Both current wave measurements and sample period cells can be hidden at the user’s discretion.
Lines
For a visual aid to the wave cycles, I have added a blue line that traces out the waves on the chart. These lines can be hidden at the user’s discretion.
█ HOW TO USE
The indicator is intended for research purposes, strategy development and strategy optimisation. I hope it will be useful in helping to gain a better understanding of the underlying dynamics at play on any given market and timeframe.
For example, the indicator can be used to compare the current range and frequency with the average range and frequency, which can be useful for gauging current market conditions versus historic and getting a feel for how different markets and timeframes behave.
█ LIMITATIONS
Some higher timeframe candles on tickers with larger lookbacks such as the DXY , do not actually contain all the open, high, low and close (OHLC) data at the beginning of the chart. Instead, they use the close price for open, high and low prices. So, while we can determine whether the close price is higher or lower than the preceding close price, there is no way of knowing what actually happened intra-bar for these candles. And by default candles that close at the same price as the open price, will be counted as green. You can avoid this problem by utilising the sample period filter.
The green and red candle calculations are based solely on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with. Alternatively, you can replace the scenarios with your own logic to account for the gap anomalies, if you are feeling up to the challenge.
It is also worth noting that the sample size will be limited to your Trading View subscription plan. Premium users get 20,000 candles worth of data, pro+ and pro users get 10,000, and basic users get 5,000. If upgrading is currently not an option, you can always keep a rolling tally of the statistics in an excel spreadsheet or something of the like.

Table
The table is colour coded, consists of three columns and twenty-two rows. Blue cells denote all candle scenarios, green cells denote green candle scenarios and red cells denote red candle scenarios.
The candle scenarios are listed in the first column with their corresponding total counts to the right, in the second column. The last row in column one, row twenty-two, displays the sample period which can be adjusted or hidden via indicator settings.
Rows two and three in the third column of the table display the total green and red candles as percentages of total candles. Rows four to nine in column three, coloured blue, display the corresponding candle scenarios as percentages of total candles. Rows ten to fifteen in column three, coloured green, display the corresponding candle scenarios as percentages of total green candles. And lastly, rows sixteen to twenty-one in column three, coloured red, display the corresponding candle scenarios as percentages of total red candles.
Plots
I have added plots as a visual aid to the various candle scenarios listed in the table. Green up-arrows denote higher high candles when above bar and higher low candles when below bar. Red down-arrows denote lower high candles when above bar and lower low candles when below bar. Similarly, blue diamonds when above bar denote double-top candles and when below bar denote double-bottom candles. These plots can also be hidden via indicator settings.
█ HOW TO USE
This indicator is intended for research purposes and strategy development. I hope it will be useful in helping to gain a better understanding of the underlying dynamics at play on any given market and timeframe. It can, for example, give you an idea of any inherent biases such as a greater proportion of green candles to red. Or a greater proportion of higher low green candles to lower low green candles. Such information can be very useful when conducting top down analysis across multiple timeframes, or considering trailing stop loss methods.
What you do with these statistics and how far you decide to take your research is entirely up to you, the possibilities are endless.
This is just the first and most basic in a series of indicators that can be used to study objective price action scenarios and develop a systematic approach to trading.
█ LIMITATIONS

TRADING MADE SIMPLEThis indicator shows market structure. The standard method of using Williams Highs and Lows as pivots, is something of an approximation.
What's original here is that we follow rules to confirm Local Highs and Local Lows, and strictly enforce that a Low can only follow a confirmed High and vice-versa.
-- Highs and Lows
To confirm a candle as a Local High, you need a later candle to Close below its Low. To confirm a Local Low, you need a Close above its High.
A Low can only follow a High (after it's been confirmed). You can't go e.g High, High, Low, Low, only High, Low, High, Low.
When price makes Higher Highs and Higher Lows, market structure is said to be bullish. When price makes Lower Lows and Lower Highs, it's bearish.
I've defined the in-between Highs and Lows as "Ranging", meaning, neutral. They could be trend continuation or reversal.
-- Bullish/Bearish Breaks
A Bullish break in market structure is when the Close of the current candle goes higher than the previous confirmed Local High.
A Bearish Break is when the Close of the current candle goes lower than the most recent confirmed Local Low.
I chose to use Close rather than High to reduce edge case weirdness. The breaking candle often ends up being a big one, thus the close of that candle can be a poor entry.
You can get live warnings by setting the alert to Options: Only Once, because during a candle, the current price is taken as the Close.
Breaks are like early warnings of a change in market bias, because you're not waiting for a High or Low to be formed and confirmed.
Buy The Dip / Sell The Rally
Buy The Dip is a label I gave to the first Higher Low in a bullish market structure. Sell The Rally is the first Lower High in a bearish market structure.
These *might* be good buying/selling opportunities, but you still need to do your own analysis to confirm that.
== USAGE ==
The point of knowing market structure is so you don't make bullish bets in a bearish market and vice versa -
or if you do at least you're aware that that's what you're doing, and hopefully have some overwhelmingly good reason to do so.
These are not signals to be traded on their own. You still need a trade thesis. Use with support & resistance and your other favourite indicators.
Works on any market on any timeframe. Be aware that market structure will be different on different timeframes.
IMPORTANT: If you're not seeing what you expect, check your settings and re-read this entire description carefully. Confirming Highs and Lows can get deceptively complex.
Bollinger Band Width PercentileIntroducing the Bollinger Band Width Percentile
Definitions :
Bollinger Band Width Percentile is derived from the Bollinger Band Width indicator.
It shows the percentage of bars over a specified lookback period that the Bollinger Band Width was less than the current Bollinger Band Width.
Bollinger Band Width is derived from the Bollinger Bands® indicator.
It quantitatively measures the width between the Upper and Lower Bands of the Bollinger Bands.
Bollinger Bands® is a volatility-based indicator.
It consists of three lines which are plotted in relation to a security's price.
The Middle Line is typically a Simple Moving Average.
The Upper and Lower Bands are typically 2 standard deviations above, and below the SMA (Middle Line).
Volatility is a statistical measure of the dispersion of returns for a given security or market index, measured by the standard deviation of logarithmic returns.
The Broad Concept :
Quoting Tradingview specifically for commonly noted limitations of the BBW indicator which I have based this indicator on....
“ Bollinger Bands Width (BBW) outputs a Percentage Difference between the Upper Band and the Lower Band.
This value is used to define the narrowness of the bands.
What needs to be understood however is that a trader cannot simply look at the BBW value and determine if the Band is truly narrow or not.
The significance of an instruments relative narrowness changes depending on the instrument or security in question.
What is considered narrow for one security may not be for another.
What is considered narrow for one security may even change within the scope of the same security depending on the timeframe.
In order to accurately gauge the significance of a narrowing of the bands, a technical analyst will need to research past BBW fluctuations and price performance to increase trading accuracy. ”
Here I present the Bollinger Band Width Percentile as a refinement of the BBW to somewhat overcome the limitations cited above.
Much of the work researching past BBW fluctuations, and making relative comparisons is done naturally by calculating the Bollinger Band Width Percentile.
This calculation also means that it can be read in a similar fashion across assets, greatly simplifying the interpretation of it.
Plotted Components of the Bollinger Band Width Percentile indicator :

Bollinger Band Width Percentile Properties:
BBWP Length
The time period to be used in calculating the Moving average which creates the Basis for the BBW component of the BBWP.
Basis Type
The type of moving average to be used as the Basis for the BBW component of the BBWP.
BBWP Lookback
The lookback period to be used in calculating the BBWP itself.
BBWP Plot settings
The BBWP plot settings give a choice between a user defined solid color, and a choice of "Blue Green Red", or "Blue Red" spectrum palettes.
Moving Averages
Has 2 Optional User definable and adjustable moving averages of the BBWP.
Visual Alerts
Optional User adjustable High and low Signal columns.
How to read the BBWP :
A BBWP read of 95 % ... means that the current BBW level is greater than 95% of the lookback period.
A BBWP read of 5 % .... means that the current BBW level is lower than 95% of the lookback period.
Proposed interpretations :
When the BBWP gets above 90 % and particularly when it hits 100% ... this can be a signal that volatility is reaching a maximum and that a macro High or Low is about to be set.
When the BBWP gets below 10 % and particularly when it hits 0% ...... this can be a signal that volatility is reaching a minimum and that there could be a violent range breakout into a trending move.
When the BBWP hits a low level < 5 % and then gets above its moving average ...... this can be an early signal that a consolidation phase is ending and a trending move is beginning.
When the BBWP hits a high level > 95 % and then falls below its moving average ... this can be an early signal that a trending move is ending and a consolidation phase is beginning.
Essential knowledge :
The BBWP was designed with the daily timeframe in mind, but technical analysists may find use for it on other time frames also.
High and Low BBWP readings do not entail any direction bias.
Deeper Concepts :
In finance, “mean reversion” is the assumption that a financial instrument's price will tend to move towards the average price over time.
If we apply that same logic to volatility as represented here by the Bollinger band width percentile, the assumption is that the Bollinger band width percentile will tend to contract from extreme highs, and expand from extreme lows over time corresponding to repeated phases of contraction and expansion of volatility.
It is clear that for most assets there are periods of directional trending behavior followed by periods of “consolidation” ( trading sideways in a range ).
This often ends with a tightening range under reducing volume and volatility ( popularly known as “the squeeze” ).
The squeeze typically ends with a “breakout” from the range characterized by a rapid increase in volume, and volatility when price action again trends directionally, and the cycle repeats.
Typical Use Cases :
The Bollinger Band Width Percentile may be especially useful for Options traders, as it can provide a bias for when Options are relatively expensive, or inexpensive from a Volatility (Vega) perspective.
When the Bollinger Band Width Percentile is relatively high ( 85 percentile or above ) it may be more advantageous to be a net seller of Vega.
When the Bollinger Band Width Percentile is relatively low ( 15 percentile or below ) it may be advantageous to be net long Vega.
Here we examine a number of actionable signals on BTCUSD daily timeframe using the BBWP and a momentum oscillator ( using the TSI here but can equally be used with Bollinger bands, moving averages, or the traders preferred momentum oscillator ).
In this first case we will examine how a spot trader and an options trader could each use a low BBWP read to alert them to a good potential trade setup.
note: using a period of 30 for both the Bollinger bands and the BBWP period ( approximately a month ) and a BBWP lookback of 350 ( approximately a year )
As we see the Bollinger Bands have gradually contracted while price action trended down and the BBWP also fell consistently while below its moving average ( denoting falling volatility ) down to an extremely low level <5% until it broke above its moving average along with a break of range to the upside ( signaling the end of the consolidation at a low level and the beginning of a new trending move to the upside with expanding volatility).
In this next case we will continue to follow the price action presuming that the traders have taken or locked in profit at reasonable take profit levels from the previous trade setup.
Here we see the contraction of the Bollinger bands, and the BBWP alongside price action breaking below the BB Basis giving a warning that the trending move to the upside is likely over.
We then see the BBWP rising and getting above its moving average while price action fails to get above the BB Basis, likewise the TSI fails to get above its signal line and actually crosses below its zeroline.
The trader would normally take this as a signal that the next trending move could be to the downside.
The next trending move turns out to be a dramatic downside move which causes the BBWP to hit 100% signaling that volatility is likely to hit a maximum giving good opportunities for profitable trades to the skilled trader as outlined.
Limitations :
Here we will look at 2 cases where blindly taking BBWP signals could cause the trader to take a failed trade.
In this first example we will look at blindly taking a low volatility options trade
Low Volatility and corresponding low BBWP levels do not automatically mean there has to be expansion immediately, these periods of extreme low volatility can go on for quite some time.
In this second example we will look at blindly taking a high volatility spot short trade
High volatility and corresponding high BBWP levels do not automatically mean there has to be a macro high and contraction of volatility immediately, these periods of extreme high volatility can also go on for quite some time, hence the famous saying "The trend is your friend until the end of the trend" and lesser well known, but equally valid saying "never try to short the top of a parabolic blow off top"
Markets are variable and past performance is no guarantee of future results, this is not financial advice, I am not a financial advisor.
Final thoughts
The BBWP is an improvement over the BBW in my opinion, and is a novel, and useful addition to a Technical Analysts toolkit.
It is not a standalone indicator and is meant to be used in conjunction with other tools for direction bias, and Good Risk Management to base sound trades off.
John Bollinger has suggested using Bolliger bands, and its related indicators with two or three other non-correlated indicators that provide more direct market signals.
He believes it is crucial to use indicators based on different types of data.
Some of his favored technical techniques are moving average divergence/convergence (MACD), on-balance volume and relative strength index (RSI).
Thanks
Massive respect to John Bollinger, long-time technician of the markets, and legendary creator of both the Bollinger Bands® in the 1980´s, and the Bollinger band Width indicator in 2010 which this indicator is based on.
His work continues to inspire, decades after he brought the original Bollinger Bands to the market.
Much respect also to Eric Crown who gave me the fundamental knowledge of Technical Analysis, and Options trading.

// === EXPLANATION OF CONCEPTS ===
// Deep Knowledge of Market from AI:
// This indicator is based on a powerful, yet often misunderstood, concept: divergence.
// While standard divergence signals a potential trend reversal, hidden divergence signals a
// continuation of the prevailing trend. This is crucial for traders who want to capitalize
// on the momentum of a move rather than trying to catch tops and bottoms.
// Hidden Bullish Divergence: Occurs in an uptrend when price makes a higher low, but the
// RSI makes a lower low. This suggests that while there was a brief period of weakness, the
// underlying buying pressure is returning to push the trend higher. It’s a "re-energizing"
// of the bullish momentum.
// Hidden Bearish Divergence: Occurs in a downtrend when price makes a lower high, but the
// RSI makes a higher high. This indicates that while the sellers paused, the underlying
// selling pressure remains strong and is likely to continue pushing the price down. It's a
// subtle signal that the bears are regaining control.
// Combining Divergence with S/R: The true power of this indicator comes from its
// "confluence" principle. A divergence signal alone can be noisy. By requiring it to occur
// at a key support or resistance level (identified using pivot points), we are filtering
// out weaker signals and only focusing on high-probability setups where the market is
// likely to respect a previous area of interest. This tells us that not only is the trend
// likely to continue, but it is doing so from a strategic, well-defined point on the chart.
// Dynamic Take-Profit Targets: The take-profit targets are based on the Average True Range (ATR).
// ATR is a measure of market volatility. Using it to set targets ensures that your profit
// levels are dynamic and adapt to current market conditions. In a volatile market, your
// targets will be wider, while in a calm market, they will be tighter, helping you avoid
// unrealistic expectations and improving your risk management.
Custom ZigZag IndicatorOverview
The Custom ZigZag Indicator is a technical analysis tool built in Pine Script (version 5) for TradingView. It overlays on price charts to visualize market trends by connecting significant swing highs and lows, filtering out minor price noise. This helps identify the overall market direction (uptrends or downtrends), potential reversal points, and key support/resistance levels. Unlike standard price lines, it "zigzags" only between meaningful pivots, making trends clearer.
Core Logic and How It Works
The script uses a state-machine approach to track market direction and pivots:
Initialization
Starts assuming an upward trend on the first bar.
sets initial high/low prices and bar indices based on the current bar's high/low.
Direction Tracking:
Upward Trend (direction = 1):
Monitors for new highs: If the current high exceeds the tracked high, update the high price and bar.
Checks for reversal: If the low drops below the high by the deviation percentage (e.g., high * (1 - 0.05) for 5%), it signals a downtrend reversal.
Draws a green line from the last pivot (low) to the new high.
If labels are enabled, adds a label: "HH" (Higher High if above previous high), "LH" (Lower High if below), or "H" (for the first one).
Updates the last high and switches to downward direction.
Downward Trend (direction = -1):
Monitors for new lows: If the current low is below the tracked low, update the low price and bar.
Checks for reversal: If the high rises above the low by the deviation percentage (e.g., low * (1 + 0.05)), it signals an uptrend reversal.
Draws a red line from the last pivot (high) to the new low.
If labels are enabled, adds a label: "LL" (Lower Low if below previous low), "HL" (Higher Low if above), or "L" (for the first one).
Updates the last low and switches to upward direction.
Initial balance - weeklyWeekly Initial Balance (IB) — Indicator Description
The Weekly Initial Balance (IB) is the price range (High–Low) established during the week’s first trading session (most commonly Monday). You can measure it over the entire day or just the first X hours (e.g. 60 or 120 minutes). Once that session ends, the IB High and IB Low define the key levels where the initial weekly range formed.
Why Measure the Weekly IB?
Week-Opening Sentiment:
Monday’s range often sets the tone for the rest of the week. Trading above the IB High signals bullish control; trading below the IB Low signals bearish control.
Key Liquidity Zones:
Large institutions tend to place orders around these extremes, so you’ll frequently see tests, breakouts, or rejections at these levels.
Support & Resistance:
The IB High and IB Low become natural barriers. Price will often return to them, bounce off them, or break through them—ideal spots for entries and exits.
Volatility Forecast:
The width of the IB (High minus Low) indicates whether to expect a volatile week (wide IB) or a quieter one (narrow IB).
Significance of IB Levels
Breakout:
A clear break above the IB High (for longs) or below the IB Low (for shorts) can ignite a strong trending move.
Fade:
A rejection off the IB High/Low during low momentum (e.g. low volume or pin-bar formations) offers a high-probability reversal trade.
Mid-Point:
The 50% level of the IB range often “magnetizes” price back to it, providing entry points for continuation or reversal strategies.
Three Core Monday IB Strategies
A. Breakout (Open-Range Breakout)
Entry: Wait for 1–2 candles (e.g. 5-minute) to close above IB High (long) or below IB Low (short).
Stop-Loss: A few pips below IB High (long) or above IB Low (short).
Profit-Target: 2–3× your risk (Reward:Risk ≥ 2:1).
Best When: You spot a clear impulse—such as a strong pre-open volume spike or news-driven move.
B. Fade (Reversal at Extremes)
Entry: When price tests IB High but shows weakening momentum (shrinking volume, upper-wick candles), enter short; vice versa for IB Low and longs.
Stop-Loss: Just beyond the IB extreme you’re fading.
Profit-Target: Back toward the IB mid-point (50% level) or all the way to the opposite IB extreme.
Best When: Monday’s action is range-bound and lacks a clear directional trend.
C. Mid-Point Trading
Entry: When price returns to the 50% level of the IB range.
In an up-trend: buy if it bounces off mid-point back toward IB High.
In a down-trend: sell if it reverses off mid-point back toward IB Low.
Stop-Loss: Just below the nearest swing-low (for longs) or above the nearest swing-high (for shorts).
Profit-Target: To the corresponding IB extreme (High or Low).
Best When: You see a strong initial move away from the IB, followed by a pullback to the mid-point.
Usage Steps
Configure your session: Measure IB over your chosen Monday timeframe (whole day or first X hours).
Choose your strategy: Align Breakout, Fade, or Mid-Point entries with the current market context (trend vs. range).
Manage risk: Keep risk per trade ≤ 1% of account and maintain at least a 2:1 Reward:Risk ratio.
Backtest & forward-test: Verify performance over multiple Mondays and in a paper-trading environment before going live.
Trend Gauge [BullByte]Trend Gauge
Summary
A multi-factor trend detection indicator that aggregates EMA alignment, VWMA momentum scaling, volume spikes, ATR breakout strength, higher-timeframe confirmation, ADX-based regime filtering, and RSI pivot-divergence penalty into one normalized trend score. It also provides a confidence meter, a Δ Score momentum histogram, divergence highlights, and a compact, scalable dashboard for at-a-glance status.
________________________________________
## 1. Purpose of the Indicator
Why this was built
Traders often monitor several indicators in parallel - EMAs, volume signals, volatility breakouts, higher-timeframe trends, ADX readings, divergence alerts, etc., which can be cumbersome and sometimes contradictory. The “Trend Gauge” indicator was created to consolidate these complementary checks into a single, normalized score that reflects the prevailing market bias (bullish, bearish, or neutral) and its strength. By combining multiple inputs with an adaptive regime filter, scaling contributions by magnitude, and penalizing weakening signals (divergence), this tool aims to reduce noise, highlight genuine trend opportunities, and warn when momentum fades.
Key Design Goals
Signal Aggregation
Merged trend-following signals (EMA crossover, ATR breakout, higher-timeframe confirmation) and momentum signals (VWMA thrust, volume spikes) into a unified score that reflects directional bias more holistically.
Market Regime Awareness
Implemented an ADX-style filter to distinguish between trending and ranging markets, reducing the influence of trend signals during sideways phases to avoid false breakouts.
Magnitude-Based Scaling
Replaced binary contributions with scaled inputs: VWMA thrust and ATR breakout are weighted relative to recent averages, allowing for more nuanced score adjustments based on signal strength.
Momentum Divergence Penalty
Integrated pivot-based RSI divergence detection to slightly reduce the overall score when early signs of momentum weakening are detected, improving risk-awareness in entries.
Confidence Transparency
Added a live confidence metric that shows what percentage of enabled sub-indicators currently agree with the overall bias, making the scoring system more interpretable.
Momentum Acceleration Visualization
Plotted the change in score (Δ Score) as a histogram bar-to-bar, highlighting whether momentum is increasing, flattening, or reversing, aiding in more timely decision-making.
Compact Informational Dashboard
Presented a clean, scalable dashboard that displays each component’s status, the final score, confidence %, detected regime (Trending/Ranging), and a labeled strength gauge for quick visual assessment.

## 2. Why a Trader Should Use It
Main benefits and use cases
1. Unified View: Rather than juggling multiple windows or panels, this indicator delivers a single score synthesizing diverse signals.
2. Regime Filtering: In ranging markets, trend signals often generate false entries. The ADX-based regime filter automatically down-weights trend-following components, helping you avoid chasing false breakouts.
3. Nuanced Momentum & Volatility: VWMA and ATR breakout contributions are normalized by recent averages, so strong moves register strongly while smaller fluctuations are de-emphasized.
4. Early Warning of Weakening: Pivot-based RSI divergence is detected and used to slightly reduce the score when price/momentum diverges, giving a cautionary signal before a full reversal.
5. Confidence Meter: See at a glance how many sub-indicators align with the aggregated bias (e.g., “80% confidence” means 4 out of 5 components agree ). This transparency avoids black-box decisions.
6. Trend Acceleration/Deceleration View: The Δ Score histogram visualizes whether the aggregated score is rising (accelerating trend) or falling (momentum fading), supplementing the main oscillator.
7. Compact Dashboard: A corner table lists each check’s status (“Bull”, “Bear”, “Flat” or “Disabled”), plus overall Score, Confidence %, Regime, Trend Strength label, and a gauge bar. Users can scale text size (Normal, Small, Tiny) without removing elements, so the full picture remains visible even in compact layouts.
8. Customizable & Transparent: All components can be enabled/disabled and parameterized (lengths, thresholds, weights). The full Pine code is open and well-commented, letting users inspect or adapt the logic.
9. Alert-ready: Built-in alert conditions fire when the score crosses weak thresholds to bullish/bearish or returns to neutral, enabling timely notifications.

## 3. Component Rationale (“Why These Specific Indicators?”)
Each sub-component was chosen because it adds complementary information about trend or momentum:
1. EMA Cross
o Basic trend measure: compares a faster EMA vs. a slower EMA. Quickly reflects trend shifts but by itself can whipsaw in sideways markets.
2. VWMA Momentum
o Volume-weighted moving average change indicates momentum with volume context. By normalizing (dividing by a recent average absolute change), we capture the strength of momentum relative to recent history. This scaling prevents tiny moves from dominating and highlights genuinely strong momentum.
3. Volume Spikes
o Sudden jumps in volume combined with price movement often accompany stronger moves or reversals. A binary detection (+1 for bullish spike, -1 for bearish spike) flags high-conviction bars.
4. ATR Breakout
o Detects price breaking beyond recent highs/lows by a multiple of ATR. Measures breakout strength by how far beyond the threshold price moves relative to ATR, capped to avoid extreme outliers. This gives a volatility-contextual trend signal.
5. Higher-Timeframe EMA Alignment
o Confirms whether the shorter-term trend aligns with a higher timeframe trend. Uses request.security with lookahead_off to avoid future data. When multiple timeframes agree, confidence in direction increases.
6. ADX Regime Filter (Manual Calculation)
o Computes directional movement (+DM/–DM), smoothes via RMA, computes DI+ and DI–, then a DX and ADX-like value. If ADX ≥ threshold, market is “Trending” and trend components carry full weight; if ADX < threshold, “Ranging” mode applies a configurable weight multiplier (e.g., 0.5) to trend-based contributions, reducing false signals in sideways conditions. Volume spikes remain binary (optional behavior; can be adjusted if desired).
7. RSI Pivot-Divergence Penalty
o Uses ta.pivothigh / ta.pivotlow with a lookback to detect pivot highs/lows on price and corresponding RSI values. When price makes a higher high but RSI makes a lower high (bearish divergence), or price makes a lower low but RSI makes a higher low (bullish divergence), a divergence signal is set. Rather than flipping the trend outright, the indicator subtracts (or adds) a small penalty (configurable) from the aggregated score if it would weaken the current bias. This subtle adjustment warns of weakening momentum without overreacting to noise.
8. Confidence Meter
o Counts how many enabled components currently agree in direction with the aggregated score (i.e., component sign × score sign > 0). Displays this as a percentage. A high percentage indicates strong corroboration; a low percentage warns of mixed signals.
9. Δ Score Momentum View
o Plots the bar-to-bar change in the aggregated score (delta_score = score - score ) as a histogram. When positive, bars are drawn in green above zero; when negative, bars are drawn in red below zero. This reveals acceleration (rising Δ) or deceleration (falling Δ), supplementing the main oscillator.
10. Dashboard
• A table in the indicator pane’s top-right with 11 rows:
1. EMA Cross status
2. VWMA Momentum status
3. Volume Spike status
4. ATR Breakout status
5. Higher-Timeframe Trend status
6. Score (numeric)
7. Confidence %
8. Regime (“Trending” or “Ranging”)
9. Trend Strength label (e.g., “Weak Bullish Trend”, “Strong Bearish Trend”)
10. Gauge bar visually representing score magnitude
• All rows always present; size_opt (Normal, Small, Tiny) only changes text size via text_size, not which elements appear. This ensures full transparency.
________________________________________
## 4. What Makes This Indicator Stand Out
• Regime-Weighted Multi-Factor Score: Trend and momentum signals are adaptively weighted by market regime (trending vs. ranging) , reducing false signals.
• Magnitude Scaling: VWMA and ATR breakout contributions are normalized by recent average momentum or ATR, giving finer gradation compared to simple ±1.
• Integrated Divergence Penalty: Divergence directly adjusts the aggregated score rather than appearing as a separate subplot; this influences alerts and trend labeling in real time.
• Confidence Meter: Shows the percentage of sub-signals in agreement, providing transparency and preventing blind trust in a single metric.
• Δ Score Histogram Momentum View: A histogram highlights acceleration or deceleration of the aggregated trend score, helping detect shifts early.
• Flexible Dashboard: Always-visible component statuses and summary metrics in one place; text size scaling keeps the full picture available in cramped layouts.
• Lookahead-Safe HTF Confirmation: Uses lookahead_off so no future data is accessed from higher timeframes, avoiding repaint bias.
• Repaint Transparency: Divergence detection uses pivot functions that inherently confirm only after lookback bars; description documents this lag so users understand how and when divergence labels appear.
• Open-Source & Educational: Full, well-commented Pine v6 code is provided; users can learn from its structure: manual ADX computation, conditional plotting with series = show ? value : na, efficient use of table.new in barstate.islast, and grouped inputs with tooltips.
• Compliance-Conscious: All plots have descriptive titles; inputs use clear names; no unnamed generic “Plot” entries; manual ADX uses RMA; all request.security calls use lookahead_off. Code comments mention repaint behavior and limitations.
________________________________________
## 5. Recommended Timeframes & Tuning
• Any Timeframe: The indicator works on small (e.g., 1m) to large (daily, weekly) timeframes. However:
o On very low timeframes (<1m or tick charts), noise may produce frequent whipsaws. Consider increasing smoothing lengths, disabling certain components (e.g., volume spike if volume data noisy), or using a larger pivot lookback for divergence.
o On higher timeframes (daily, weekly), consider longer lookbacks for ATR breakout or divergence, and set Higher-Timeframe trend appropriately (e.g., 4H HTF when on 5 Min chart).
• Defaults & Experimentation: Default input values are chosen to be balanced for many liquid markets. Users should test with replay or historical analysis on their symbol/timeframe and adjust:
o ADX threshold (e.g., 20–30) based on instrument volatility.
o VWMA and ATR scaling lengths to match average volatility cycles.
o Pivot lookback for divergence: shorter for faster markets, longer for slower ones.
• Combining with Other Analysis: Use in conjunction with price action, support/resistance, candlestick patterns, order flow, or other tools as desired. The aggregated score and alerts can guide attention but should not be the sole decision-factor.

## 6. How Scoring and Logic Works (Step-by-Step)
1. Compute Sub-Scores
o EMA Cross: Evaluate fast EMA > slow EMA ? +1 : fast EMA < slow EMA ? -1 : 0.
o VWMA Momentum: Calculate vwma = ta.vwma(close, length), then vwma_mom = vwma - vwma . Normalize: divide by recent average absolute momentum (e.g., ta.sma(abs(vwma_mom), lookback)), clip to .
o Volume Spike: Compute vol_SMA = ta.sma(volume, len). If volume > vol_SMA * multiplier AND price moved up ≥ threshold%, assign +1; if moved down ≥ threshold%, assign -1; else 0.
o ATR Breakout: Determine recent high/low over lookback. If close > high + ATR*mult, compute distance = close - (high + ATR*mult), normalize by ATR, cap at a configured maximum. Assign positive contribution. Similarly for bearish breakout below low.
o Higher-Timeframe Trend: Use request.security(..., lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off) to fetch HTF EMAs; assign +1 or -1 based on alignment.
2. ADX Regime Weighting
o Compute manual ADX: directional movements (+DM, –DM), smoothed via RMA, DI+ and DI–, then DX and ADX via RMA. If ADX ≥ threshold, market is considered “Trending”; otherwise “Ranging.”
o If trending, trend-based contributions (EMA, VWMA, ATR, HTF) use full weight = 1.0. If ranging, use weight = ranging_weight (e.g., 0.5) to down-weight them. Volume spike stays binary ±1 (optional to change if desired).
3. Aggregate Raw Score
o Sum weighted contributions of all enabled components. Count the number of enabled components; if zero, default count = 1 to avoid division by zero.
4. Divergence Penalty
o Detect pivot highs/lows on price and corresponding RSI values, using a lookback. When price and RSI diverge (bearish or bullish divergence), check if current raw score is in the opposing direction:
If bearish divergence (price higher high, RSI lower high) and raw score currently positive, subtract a penalty (e.g., 0.5).
If bullish divergence (price lower low, RSI higher low) and raw score currently negative, add a penalty.
o This reduces score magnitude to reflect weakening momentum, without flipping the trend outright.
5. Normalize and Smooth
o Normalized score = (raw_score / number_of_enabled_components) * 100. This yields a roughly range.
o Optional EMA smoothing of this normalized score to reduce noise.
6. Interpretation
o Sign: >0 = net bullish bias; <0 = net bearish bias; near zero = neutral.
o Magnitude Zones: Compare |score| to thresholds (Weak, Medium, Strong) to label trend strength (e.g., “Weak Bullish Trend”, “Medium Bearish Trend”, “Strong Bullish Trend”).
o Δ Score Histogram: The histogram bars from zero show change from previous bar’s score; positive bars indicate acceleration, negative bars indicate deceleration.
o Confidence: Percentage of sub-indicators aligned with the score’s sign.
o Regime: Indicates whether trend-based signals are fully weighted or down-weighted.

## 7. Oscillator Plot & Visualization: How to Read It
Main Score Line & Area
The oscillator plots the aggregated score as a line, with colored fill: green above zero for bullish area, red below zero for bearish area. Horizontal reference lines at ±Weak, ±Medium, and ±Strong thresholds mark zones: crossing above +Weak suggests beginning of bullish bias, above +Medium for moderate strength, above +Strong for strong trend; similarly for bearish below negative thresholds.
Δ Score Histogram
If enabled, a histogram shows score - score . When positive, bars appear in green above zero, indicating accelerating bullish momentum; when negative, bars appear in red below zero, indicating decelerating or reversing momentum. The height of each bar reflects the magnitude of change in the aggregated score from the prior bar.
Divergence Highlight Fill
If enabled, when a pivot-based divergence is confirmed:
• Bullish Divergence : fill the area below zero down to –Weak threshold in green, signaling potential reversal from bearish to bullish.
• Bearish Divergence : fill the area above zero up to +Weak threshold in red, signaling potential reversal from bullish to bearish.
These fills appear with a lag equal to pivot lookback (the number of bars needed to confirm the pivot). They do not repaint after confirmation, but users must understand this lag.
Trend Direction Label
When score crosses above or below the Weak threshold, a small label appears near the score line reading “Bullish” or “Bearish.” If the score returns within ±Weak, the label “Neutral” appears. This helps quickly identify shifts at the moment they occur.
Dashboard Panel
In the indicator pane’s top-right, a table shows:
1. EMA Cross status: “Bull”, “Bear”, “Flat”, or “Disabled”
2. VWMA Momentum status: similarly
3. Volume Spike status: “Bull”, “Bear”, “No”, or “Disabled”
4. ATR Breakout status: “Bull”, “Bear”, “No”, or “Disabled”
5. Higher-Timeframe Trend status: “Bull”, “Bear”, “Flat”, or “Disabled”
6. Score: numeric value (rounded)
7. Confidence: e.g., “80%” (colored: green for high, amber for medium, red for low)
8. Regime: “Trending” or “Ranging” (colored accordingly)
9. Trend Strength: textual label based on magnitude (e.g., “Medium Bullish Trend”)
10. Gauge: a bar of blocks representing |score|/100
All rows remain visible at all times; changing Dashboard Size only scales text size (Normal, Small, Tiny).
________________________________________
## 8. Example Usage (Illustrative Scenario)
Example: BTCUSD 5 Min
1. Setup: Add “Trend Gauge ” to your BTCUSD 5 Min chart. Defaults: EMAs (8/21), VWMA 14 with lookback 3, volume spike settings, ATR breakout 14/5, HTF = 5m (or adjust to 4H if preferred), ADX threshold 25, ranging weight 0.5, divergence RSI length 14 pivot lookback 5, penalty 0.5, smoothing length 3, thresholds Weak=20, Medium=50, Strong=80. Dashboard Size = Small.
2. Trend Onset: At some point, price breaks above recent high by ATR multiple, volume spikes upward, faster EMA crosses above slower EMA, HTF EMA also bullish, and ADX (manual) ≥ threshold → aggregated score rises above +20 (Weak threshold) into +Medium zone. Dashboard shows “Bull” for EMA, VWMA, Vol Spike, ATR, HTF; Score ~+60–+70; Confidence ~100%; Regime “Trending”; Trend Strength “Medium Bullish Trend”; Gauge ~6–7 blocks. Δ Score histogram bars are green and rising, indicating accelerating bullish momentum. Trader notes the alignment.
3. Divergence Warning: Later, price makes a slightly higher high but RSI fails to confirm (lower RSI high). Pivot lookback completes; the indicator highlights a bearish divergence fill above zero and subtracts a small penalty from the score, causing score to stall or retrace slightly. Dashboard still bullish but score dips toward +Weak. This warns the trader to tighten stops or take partial profits.
4. Trend Weakens: Score eventually crosses below +Weak back into neutral; a “Neutral” label appears, and a “Neutral Trend” alert fires if enabled. Trader exits or avoids new long entries. If score subsequently crosses below –Weak, a “Bearish” label and alert occur.
5. Customization: If the trader finds VWMA noise too frequent on this instrument, they may disable VWMA or increase lookback. If ATR breakouts are too rare, adjust ATR length or multiplier. If ADX threshold seems off, tune threshold. All these adjustments are explained in Inputs section.
6. Visualization: The screenshot shows the main score oscillator with colored areas, reference lines at ±20/50/80, Δ Score histogram bars below/above zero, divergence fill highlighting potential reversal, and the dashboard table in the top-right.

________________________________________
## 10. Limitations, Repaint Notes, and Disclaimers
10.1. Repaint & Lag Considerations
• Pivot-Based Divergence Lag: The divergence detection uses ta.pivothigh / ta.pivotlow with a specified lookback. By design, a pivot is only confirmed after the lookback number of bars. As a result:
o Divergence labels or fills appear with a delay equal to the pivot lookback.
o Once the pivot is confirmed and the divergence is detected, the fill/label does not repaint thereafter, but you must understand and accept this lag.
o Users should not treat divergence highlights as predictive signals without additional confirmation, because they appear after the pivot has fully formed.
• Higher-Timeframe EMA Alignment: Uses request.security(..., lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off), so no future data from the higher timeframe is used. This avoids lookahead bias and ensures signals are based only on completed higher-timeframe bars.
• No Future Data: All calculations are designed to avoid using future information. For example, manual ADX uses RMA on past data; security calls use lookahead_off.
10.2. Market & Noise Considerations
• In very choppy or low-liquidity markets, some components (e.g., volume spikes or VWMA momentum) may be noisy. Users can disable or adjust those components’ parameters.
• On extremely low timeframes, noise may dominate; consider smoothing lengths or disabling certain features.
• On very high timeframes, pivots and breakouts occur less frequently; adjust lookbacks accordingly to avoid sparse signals.
10.3. Not a Standalone Trading System
• This is an indicator, not a complete trading strategy. It provides signals and context but does not manage entries, exits, position sizing, or risk management.
• Users must combine it with their own analysis, money management, and confirmations (e.g., price patterns, support/resistance, fundamental context).
• No guarantees: past behavior does not guarantee future performance.
10.4. Disclaimers
• Educational Purposes Only: The script is provided as-is for educational and informational purposes. It does not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice.
• Use at Your Own Risk: Trading involves risk of loss. Users should thoroughly test and use proper risk management.

Market Structure HH, HL, LH and LLMarket Structure Indicator (HH, HL, LH, LL) – Explanation and Usage
Overview:
This indicator is designed to detect and visualize market structure shifts by identifying Higher Highs (HH), Higher Lows (HL), Lower Highs (LH), and Lower Lows (LL). It plots a ZigZag structure to mark trend changes, helping traders analyze price swings and market direction.
Indicator Logic:
The indicator operates based on ZigZag swing points to define trend shifts and structure changes.
Identifying Market Swings:
It finds local highs and lows using the ZigZag Length (zigzag_len), which defines how many bars back to check for a new swing high/low.
If the current high is the highest over zigzag_len periods, it marks it as a swing high.
If the current low is the lowest over zigzag_len periods, it marks it as a swing low.
Determining Market Structure:
Uptrend: Higher Highs (HH) & Higher Lows (HL)
Downtrend: Lower Lows (LL) & Lower Highs (LH)
The script continuously tracks the last two highs (h0, h1) and last two lows (l0, l1) to classify the current market structure.
Visual Elements:
ZigZag Line (Optional): Connects major swing highs and lows for trend visualization.
Labels (HH, HL, LH, LL):
HH (Higher High) – Price is making new highs → Uptrend Continuation.
HL (Higher Low) – Price forms a higher bottom → Uptrend Confirmation.
LL (Lower Low) – Price is making new lows → Downtrend Continuation.
LH (Lower High) – Price forms a lower top → Downtrend Confirmation.
Breakout Confirmation with Fibonacci Factor (Optional)
The indicator includes an option to confirm breakouts using the fib_factor, which ensures price moves beyond a certain retracement level.
How to Use This Indicator in Trading:
1. Identifying Trends & Trend Reversals
Uptrend: Look for a sequence of HH and HL.
Downtrend: Look for a sequence of LL and LH.
Trend Reversal: If price transitions from HH-HL to LH-LL, it signals a shift from an uptrend to a downtrend (and vice versa).
2. Confirming Entry & Exit Points
Buy Entry (Long Position)
Enter after a Higher Low (HL) is confirmed in an uptrend.
Combine with support zones or moving averages for confirmation.
Sell Entry (Short Position)
Enter after a Lower High (LH) is confirmed in a downtrend.
Combine with resistance zones or moving averages for confirmation.
Exit Strategy
Exit long trades when price fails to make a HH and forms an LH instead.
Exit short trades when price fails to make a LL and forms an HL instead.
3. Spotting Breakouts & Order Blocks
The Fib Factor setting allows traders to filter false breakouts by confirming price movement beyond a retracement threshold.
Potential Order Blocks can be identified by looking at the last major swing point before a breakout.
Benefits of This Indicator for Traders
✅ Trend Identification: Helps traders quickly determine if the market is in an uptrend or downtrend.
✅ Clear Market Structure Labels: Easily visualizes Higher Highs, Higher Lows, Lower Highs, and Lower Lows.

Globex time (New York Time)This indicator is designed to highlight and analyze price movements within the Globex session. Primarily geared toward the Globex Trap trading strategy, this tool visually identifies the session's high and low prices, allowing traders to better assess price action during extended hours. Here’s a comprehensive breakdown of its features and functionality:
Purpose
The "Globex Time (New York Time)" indicator tracks price levels during the Globex trading session, providing a clear view of overnight market activity. This session, typically running from 6 p.m. ET (18:00) until the following morning at 8:30 a.m. ET, is a critical period where significant market positioning can occur before the regular session opens. In the Globex Trap strategy, the session high and low are essential levels, as price movements around these areas often indicate potential support, resistance, or reversal zones, which traders use to set up entries or exits when the regular trading session begins.
Key Features
Customizable Session Start and End Times
The indicator allows users to specify the exact start and end times of the Globex session in New York time. The default settings are:
Start: 6 p.m. ET (18:00)
End: 8:30 a.m. ET
These settings can be adjusted to align with specific market hours or personal preferences.
Session High and Low Identification
Throughout the defined session, the indicator dynamically calculates and tracks:
Session High: The highest price reached within the session.
Session Low: The lowest price reached within the session.
These levels are essential for the Globex Trap strategy, as price action around them can indicate likely breakout or reversal points when regular trading resumes.
Vertical Lines for Session Start and End
The indicator draws vertical lines at both the session start and end times:
Session Start Line: A solid line marking the exact beginning of the Globex session.
Session End Line: A similar vertical line marking the session’s conclusion.
Both lines are customizable in terms of color and thickness, making it easy to distinguish the session boundaries visually on the chart.
Horizontal Lines for Session High and Low
At the end of the session, the indicator plots horizontal lines representing the Globex session's high and low levels. Users can customize these lines:
Color: Define specific colors for the session high (default: red) and session low (default: green) to easily differentiate them.
Line Style: Options to set the line style (solid, dashed, or dotted) provide flexibility for visual preferences and chart organization.
Automatic Reset for Daily Tracking
To adapt to the next trading day, the indicator resets the session high and low data once the current session ends. This reset prepares it to start tracking new levels at the beginning of the next session without manual intervention.
Practical Application in the Globex Trap Strategy
In the Globex Trap strategy, traders are primarily interested in price behavior around the high and low levels established during the overnight session. Common applications of this indicator for this strategy include:
Breakout Trades: Watching for price to break above the Globex high or below the Globex low, indicating potential momentum in the breakout direction.
Reversal Trades: Monitoring for failed breakouts or traps where price tests and rejects the Globex high or low, suggesting a reversal as liquidity is trapped in these zones.
Support and Resistance Zones: Using the session high and low as key support and resistance levels during the regular trading session, with potential entry or exit points when price approaches these areas.
Additional Configuration Options
Vertical Line Color and Width: Define the color and thickness of the vertical session start and end lines to match your chart’s theme.
Upper and Lower Line Colors and Styles: Customize the appearance of the session high and low horizontal lines by setting color and line style (solid, dashed, or dotted), making it easy to distinguish these critical levels from other chart markings.
Summary
This indicator is a valuable tool for traders implementing the Globex Trap strategy. It visually segments the Globex session and marks essential price levels, helping traders analyze market behavior overnight. Through its customizable options and clear visual representation, it simplifies tracking overnight price activity and identifying strategic levels for potential trade setups during the regular session.
WaveTrend With Divs & RSI(STOCH) Divs by WeloTradesWaveTrend with Divergences & RSI(STOCH) Divergences by WeloTrades
Overview
The "WaveTrend With Divergences & RSI(STOCH) Divergences" is an advanced Pine Script™ indicator designed for TradingView, offering a multi-dimensional analysis of market conditions. This script integrates several technical indicators—WaveTrend, Money Flow Index (MFI), RSI, and Stochastic RSI—into a cohesive tool that identifies both regular and hidden divergences across these indicators. These divergences can indicate potential market reversals and provide critical trading opportunities.
This indicator is not just a simple combination of popular tools; it offers extensive customization options, organized data presentation, and valuable trading signals that are easy to interpret. Whether you're a day trader or a long-term investor, this script enhances your ability to make informed decisions.
Originality and Usefulness
The originality of this script lies in its integration and the synergy it creates among the indicators used. Rather than merely combining multiple indicators, this script allows them to work together, enhancing each other's strengths. For example, by identifying divergences across WaveTrend, RSI, and Stochastic RSI simultaneously, the script provides multiple layers of confirmation, which reduces the likelihood of false signals and increases the reliability of trading signals.
The usefulness of this script is apparent in its ability to offer a consolidated view of market dynamics. It not only simplifies the analytical process by combining different indicators but also provides deeper insights through its divergence detection features. This comprehensive approach is designed to help traders identify potential market reversals, confirm trends, and ultimately make more informed trading decisions.
How the Components Work Together
1. Cross-Validation of Signals
WaveTrend: This indicator is primarily used to identify overbought and oversold conditions, as well as potential buy and sell signals. WaveTrend's ability to smooth price data and reduce noise makes it a reliable tool for identifying trend reversals.
RSI & Stochastic RSI: These momentum oscillators are used to measure the speed and change of price movements. While RSI identifies general overbought and oversold conditions, Stochastic RSI offers a more granular view by tracking the RSI’s level relative to its high-low range over a period of time. When these indicators align with WaveTrend signals, it adds a layer of confirmation that enhances the reliability of the signals.
Money Flow Index (MFI): This volume-weighted indicator assesses the inflow and outflow of money in an asset, giving insights into buying and selling pressure. By analyzing the MFI alongside WaveTrend and RSI indicators, the script can cross-validate signals, ensuring that buy or sell signals are supported by actual market volume.
Example Bullish scenario:
When a bullish divergence is detected on the RSI and confirmed by a corresponding bullish signal on the WaveTrend, along with an increasing Money Flow Index, the probability of a successful trade setup increases. This cross-validation minimizes the risk of acting on false signals, which might occur when relying on a single indicator.
Example Bearish scenario:
When a bearish divergence is detected on the RSI and confirmed by a corresponding bearish signal on the WaveTrend, along with an decreasing Money Flow Index, the probability of a successful trade setup increases. This cross-validation minimizes the risk of acting on false signals, which might occur when relying on a single indicator.
2. Divergence Detection and Market Reversals
Regular Divergences: Occur when the price action and an indicator (like RSI or WaveTrend) move in opposite directions. Regular bullish divergence signals a potential upward reversal when the price makes a lower low while the indicator makes a higher low. Conversely, regular bearish divergence suggests a downward reversal when the price makes a higher high, but the indicator makes a lower high.
Hidden Divergences: These occur when the price action and indicator move in the same direction, but with different momentum. Hidden bullish divergence suggests the continuation of an uptrend, while hidden bearish divergence suggests the continuation of a downtrend. By detecting these divergences across multiple indicators, the script identifies potential trend reversals or continuations with greater accuracy.
Example: The script might detect a regular bullish divergence on the WaveTrend while simultaneously identifying a hidden bullish divergence on the RSI. This combination suggests that while a trend reversal is possible, the overall market sentiment remains bullish, providing a nuanced view of the market.
A Regular Bullish Divergence Example:
A Hidden Bullish Divergence Example:
A Regular Bearish Divergence Example:
A Hidden Bearish Divergence Example:
3. Trend Strength and Sentiment Analysis
WaveTrend: Measures the strength and direction of the trend. By identifying the extremes of market sentiment (overbought and oversold levels), WaveTrend provides early signals for potential reversals.
Money Flow Index (MFI): Assesses the underlying sentiment by analyzing the flow of money. A rising MFI during an uptrend confirms strong buying pressure, while a falling MFI during a downtrend confirms selling pressure. This helps traders assess whether a trend is likely to continue or reverse.
RSI & Stochastic RSI: Offer a momentum-based perspective on the trend’s strength. High RSI or Stochastic RSI values indicate that the asset may be overbought, suggesting a potential reversal. Conversely, low values indicate oversold conditions, signaling a possible upward reversal.
Example:
During a strong uptrend, the WaveTrend & RSI's might signal overbought conditions, suggesting caution. If the MFI also shows decreasing buying pressure and the RSI reaches extreme levels, these indicators together suggest that the trend might be weakening, and a reversal could be imminent.
Example:
During a strong downtrend, the WaveTrend & RSI's might signal oversold conditions, suggesting caution. If the MFI also shows increasing buying pressure and the RSI reaches extreme levels, these indicators together suggest that the trend might be weakening, and a reversal could be imminent.
Conclusion
The "WaveTrend With Divergences & RSI(STOCH) Divergences" script offers a powerful, integrated approach to technical analysis by combining trend, momentum, and sentiment indicators into a single tool. Its unique value lies in the cross-validation of signals, the ability to detect divergences, and the comprehensive view it provides of market conditions. By offering traders multiple layers of analysis and customization options, this script is designed to enhance trading decisions, reduce false signals, and provide clearer insights into market dynamics.

RSI & STOCHASTIC RSI OVERBOUGHT AND OVERSOLD LEVELS
Display of RSI & Stochastic with Overbought & Oversold Levels:
Display of RSI & Stochastic Overbought & Oversold Settings:
RSI & Stochastic Overbought & Oversold Levels Explanation
The Overbought (OB) and Oversold (OS) levels for RSI and Stochastic RSI indicators are key thresholds that help traders identify potential reversal points in the market. These levels are used to determine when an asset is likely overbought or oversold, which can signal a potential trend reversal.
RSI & Stochastic Overbought & Oversold Input Settings:
RSI & Stochastic Level 1 Overbought (OB) & Oversold (OS): Default: OB Level = 170, OS Level = 130
What it is: The first set of thresholds for determining overbought and oversold conditions for both RSI and Stochastic RSI indicators.
What it does: When the RSI or Stochastic RSI crosses above the overbought level, it suggests that the asset might be overbought, potentially signaling a sell opportunity. Conversely, when these indicators drop below the oversold level, it suggests the asset might be oversold, potentially signaling a buy opportunity.
Example: If the RSI crosses above 170, traders might look for signs of a potential trend reversal to the downside, while a cross below 130 might indicate a reversal to the upside.
RSI & Stochastic Level 2 Overbought (OB) & Oversold (OS): Default: OB Level = 180, OS Level = 120
What it is: The second set of thresholds for determining overbought and oversold conditions for both RSI and Stochastic RSI indicators.
What it does: These levels provide an additional set of reference points, allowing traders to differentiate between varying degrees of overbought and oversold conditions, potentially leading to more refined trading decisions.
Example: When the RSI crosses above 180, it might indicate an extreme overbought condition, which could be a stronger signal for a sell, while a cross below 120 might indicate an extreme oversold condition, which could be a stronger signal for a buy.
RSI & Stochastic Overbought (OB) Band Customization:
OB Level 1: Width, Style, and Color:
What it is: Customization options for the visual appearance of the first overbought band on the chart.
What it does: Allows you to set the line width, style (solid, dotted, dashed), and color for the first overbought band, enhancing its visibility on the chart.

OB Level 2: Width, Style, and Color:
What it is: Customization options for the visual appearance of the second overbought band on the chart.
What it does: Allows you to set the line width, style, and color for the second overbought band, providing a clear distinction from the first band.
Example: A dashed red line with a slightly thicker width can represent a more significant overbought level, making it easier to differentiate from the first level.
RSI & Stochastic Oversold (OS) Band Customization:
OS Level 1: Width, Style, and Color:
What it is: Customization options for the visual appearance of the first oversold band on the chart.
What it does: Allows you to set the line width, style (solid, dotted, dashed), and color for the first oversold band, making it visually prominent.
Example: A dashed green line with medium width can highlight the first oversold level, helping traders identify potential buying opportunities.
OS Level 2: Width, Style, and Color:
What it is: Customization options for the visual appearance of the second oversold band on the chart.
What it does: Allows you to set the line width, style, and color for the second oversold band, providing an additional visual cue for extreme oversold conditions.
Example: A dashed green line with a thicker width can represent a more significant oversold level, offering a stronger visual cue for potential buying opportunities.
RSI DIVERGENCES

Display of RSI Divergence Settings:
RSI Divergence Lookback Explanation
The RSI Divergence settings allow traders to customize the parameters for detecting divergences between the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and price action. Divergences occur when the price moves in the opposite direction to the RSI, potentially signaling a trend reversal. These settings help refine the accuracy of divergence detection by adjusting the lookback period and range. ( NOTE: This setting only imply to the RSI. This doesn't effect the STOCHASTIC RSI. )
RSI Divergence Lookback Input Settings:
Lookback Left: Default: 10
What it is: The number of bars to look back from the current bar to detect a potential divergence.
What it does: Defines the left-side lookback period for identifying pivot points in the RSI, which are used to spot divergences. A longer lookback period may capture more significant trends but could also miss shorter-term divergences.
Example: A setting of 10 bars means the script will consider pivot points up to 10 bars before the current bar to check for divergence patterns.
Lookback Right: Default: 1
What it is: The number of bars to look forward from the current bar to complete the divergence pattern.
What it does: Defines the right-side lookback period for confirming a potential divergence. This setting helps ensure that the identified divergence is valid by allowing the script to check subsequent bars for confirmation.
Example: A setting of 1 bar means the script will look at the next bar to confirm the divergence pattern, ensuring that the signal is reliable.
Lookback Range Min: Default: 5
What it is: The minimum range of bars required to detect a valid divergence.
What it does: Sets a lower bound on the range of bars considered for divergence detection. A lower minimum range might capture more frequent but possibly less significant divergences.
Example: Setting the minimum range to 5 ensures that only divergences spanning at least 5 bars are considered, filtering out very short-term patterns.
Lookback Range Max: Default: 60
What it is: The maximum range of bars within which a divergence can be detected.
What it does: Sets an upper bound on the range of bars considered for divergence detection. A larger maximum range might capture more significant divergences but could also include less relevant long-term patterns.
Example: Setting the maximum range to 60 bars allows the script to detect divergences over a longer timeframe, capturing more extended divergence patterns that could indicate major trend reversals.

What it does: Helps you stay informed of key market movements without constantly monitoring the charts, enabling timely decisions.
Example: Setting an alert for regular bearish divergence on the WaveTrend could notify you of a potential sell opportunity as soon as it is detected.
How to Use Alerts:
Set up custom alerts in TradingView based on these conditions to be notified of potential trading opportunities. Alerts are triggered when the indicator detects conditions that match the selected criteria, such as divergences or potential reversals.
By following the detailed guidelines and examples above, you can effectively use and customize this powerful indicator to suit your trading strategy.
For further understanding and customization, refer to the input settings within the script and adjust them to match your trading style and preferences.
How Components Work Together
Synergy and Cross-Validation: The indicator combines multiple layers of analysis to validate trading signals. For example, a WaveTrend buy signal that coincides with a bullish divergence in RSI and positive fast money flow is likely to be more reliable than any single indicator’s signal. This cross-validation reduces the likelihood of false signals and enhances decision-making.
Comprehensive Market Analysis: Each component plays a role in analyzing different aspects of the market. WaveTrend focuses on trend strength, Money Flow indicators assess market sentiment, while RSI and Stochastic RSI offer detailed views of price momentum and potential reversals.
Ideal For
Traders who require a reliable, multifaceted tool for detecting market trends and reversals.
Investors seeking a deeper understanding of market dynamics across different timeframes and conditions, whether in forex, equities, or cryptocurrency markets.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
What is a Swing Chart?
Swing charts help traders visualize price movements and identify trends by focusing on price highs and lows. They are instrumental in spotting trend reversals and continuations.
What is the One-Bar Swing Chart?
The One-Bar Swing Chart, also known as the Minor Trend Chart, follows single-bar price movements. It plots upward swings from a low price when a higher high is made, and downward swings from a high price when a lower low is made.
Key Features:
Trend Identification : Highlights minor trends by plotting swing highs and lows based on one-bar movements.
Simple Interpretation : Crossing a swing top indicates an uptrend, while crossing a swing bottom signals a downtrend.
Customizable Periods : Users can adjust the period to fine-tune the sensitivity of the swing chart to market movements.
Practical Application:
Bullish Trend : When the One-Bar Swing line moves above a previous swing top, it indicates a bullish trend.
Bearish Trend : When the One-Bar Swing line moves below a previous swing bottom, it signals a bearish trend.
Trend Reversal : Watch for crossings of swing tops and bottoms to detect potential trend reversals.
The One-Bar Swing Chart is a powerful tool for traders looking to capture and understand market trends. By following the simple rules of swing highs and lows, it provides clear and actionable insights into market direction.
Why the Strategy Uses 100% Allocation of a Portfolio:
This strategy allocates 100% of the portfolio to trading this specific pair, which does not mean 100% of all capital but 100% of the allocated trading capital for this pair. The strategy is swing-based and does not use take profit (TP) or stop losses.
Preday Price ChannelPreday Price Channel Indicator
This indicator is designed to help traders easily observe and capitalize on key price levels and their implications on market trends. It displays the previous day's high and low prices, as well as lines representing Fibonacci ratios between these prices. When a high or low is double-broken (retested and broken again), the indicator confirms a trend change and fills the channel with orange or navy color to visually indicate this shift.
Before a large directionality appears in the market, a breakout of the previous day's high or low must occur in that direction. As long as the previous day's low is maintained, an uptrend persists, and as long as the previous day's high is maintained, a downtrend persists.
In the crypto market, the significance of the previous day's high or low is often underemphasized and less known. This simple indicator was created to help traders observe the powerful influence of the previous day's high and low, and to potentially use it to their advantage in trading.
Wishing you successful trading with this tool.
Options
Day Open: Check this box to display the current day's opening price on the chart. The opening price of the day often remains intact and is one of the simplest and most powerful indicators of whether the day's trend is upward or downward.
Preday Open: Check this box to display the previous day's opening price on the chart. The previous day's opening price often exhibits a strong tendency for retests.
Preday High and Low: Check this box to display the previous day's high and low prices on the chart. These levels are critical for determining potential breakout points.
FIB On: Check this box to display the Fibonacci ratios between the previous day's high and low prices. This feature helps identify potential support and resistance levels within this range.
Day Mid On: Check this box to display the midpoint of the preday's price range on the chart. This serves as a reference point for trend changes.
Day Trend Color On: Check this box to enable color-coding for uptrends and downtrends based on the previous day's high and low prices.
When the previous day's high is breached, the trend value is set to 2, and an orange shaded area is filled in.
When the previous day's low is breached, the trend value is set to -2, and a navy shaded area is filled in.
When a high or low is double-broken (retested and broken again), the indicator confirms the trend change, filling the channel with orange for an uptrend and navy for a downtrend to make it easy for users to recognize the trend change.
These trend values and colors remain as long as the midpoint of the previous day's price range is not violated, indicating the trend is still valid.
If, during a downtrend (trend value of -2), the low price crosses above the previous day's midpoint, the trend value changes to 1, indicating a potential issue in the downtrend, and a light orange color is displayed.
Conversely, if, during an uptrend (trend value of 2), the high price crosses below the previous day's midpoint, the trend value changes to -1, signaling a potential issue in the uptrend, and a light navy color is displayed.
This comprehensive set of features allows traders to make informed decisions by clearly observing key price levels and their implications on market trends.
HTF Descending TriangleHTF Descending Triangle aims at detecting descending triangles using higher time frame data, without repainting nor misalignment issues.
Descending triangles are defined by a falling upper trend line and an horizontal lower trend line. It is a chart pattern used in technical analysis to predict the continuation of a downtrend.
This indicator can be useful if you, like me, believe that higher time frames can offer a broader perspective and provide clearer signals, smoothing out market noise and showing longer-term trends.
You can change the indicator settings as you see fit to tighten or loosen the detection, and achieve the best results for your use case.
Features
It draws the detected descending triangle on the chart.
It supports alerting when a detection occurs.
It allows for setting the higher time frame to run the detection on.
It allows for setting the minimum number of consecutive valid higher time frame bars to fit the pattern criteria.
It allows for setting a low factor detection criteria to apply on higher time frame bars low as a proportion of the distance between the reference bar low and open/close.
It allows for turning on an adjustment of the triangle using highest/lowest values within valid higher time frame bars.
Settings
Higher Time Frame dropdown: Selects higher time frame to run the detection on. It must be higher than, and a multiple of, the chart's timeframe.
Valid Bars Minimum field: Sets minimum number of consecutive valid higher time frame bars to fit the pattern criteria.
Low Factor checkbox: Turns on/off low factor detection criteria.
Low Factor field: Sets low factor to apply on higher time frame bars low as a proportion of the distance between the reference bar low and open/close.
Adjust Triangle checkbox: Turns on/off triangle adjustment using highest/lowest values within valid higher time frame bars.
Detection Algorithm Notes
The detection algorithm recursively selects a higher time frame bar as reference. Then it looks at the consecutive higher time frame bars (as per the requested number of minimum valid bars) as follows:
High must be lower than previous bar.
Open/close min value must be higher than reference bar low.
When low factor criteria is turned on, low must be lower than reference bar open/close min value minus low factor proportion of the distance between reference bar low and open/close min value.
