Volume Analysis🙏🏻 (signed) Volume Analysis is 2 of 2 structural layer / ordeflow analysis scripts, while the first one is Liquidity Analysis. Both are independent so can’t be released together as a single script, but should be used together.
The same math used in this script can be applied to other types of aggressive volume data: non-aggregated flow of market orders, volume traded of put vs call options.
There’s no universal agreement about terminology, but this script works with volumes signed by the aggressor who initiated a transaction. Then these volumes get aggregated by time and a cumulative sum is calculated. Mostly this is widely known as Cumulative Volume Delta.
However this script works with 'inferred' volumes vs the provided ones. It’s the better choice for equities, bonds; neutral choice for currencies; and suboptimal choice for natural and artificial commodities.

1. Output description
Color of the CVD line reflects (signed) volume imbalance state: red is negative, purple is neutral, blue is positive.
3 purple lines are lower deviation (lower band), basis (middle band), upper deviation (upper band): used to generate signals by a ruleset that would be explained in a minute
Gray number in the script’s status line is the advised input you may put into Inferred volume multiplier in script’s setting, I will explain it
Vertical dash line marks the moving window end, this way you can be certain over what exact data you see the profile was built.
2. How to analyze & use the outputs
Setup up the script:
Moving window length: set it to ~ ¼ of your data analysis window. E.g if you see on your charts and use ~ 256 bars, set the length to 64.
Inferred volume multiplier: you can easily leave it 256, this is not a critical factor for the math, it’s mostly there if you want to ~ equate inferred volumes with real ones in scale. For this, use the gray number in the script status line, it’s calculated as ratio of long term real volumes weighted avg to long term inferred volumes weighted avg.
Again, changing the inferred volume multiplier won’t affect the math.
Use 2 timeframes: main one and a far lower one 3 steps down, just like on the screenshot.
Find out current volume imbalance state:
As mentioned before, based on CVD line color, it can be negative, neutral or positive. This is the state variable that changes slowly and denies/confirms the signals generated by crossovers of CVD line and 3 purple thresholds.
For this I use my own very fast and lightweight metric that is totally statistically grounded, utilizes temporal information, and calculates volume imbalance without using heavy math like regressions as it’s usually done. It also provides a natural neutral zone, when volume imbalance is not strong enough to be confirmed.
...
CVD-based signals:
First you need to understand what precisely a touch of a threshold is:
Touch: an event when either of these 2 happens:
One CVD datapoint is above the threshold, and the next CVD datapoint is below the threshold
One CVD datapoint is below the threshold, and the next CVD datapoint is above the threshold
These are usually called crossovers/crossunders.
Now with the 3 purple thresholds we follow this logic:
Monitor the last touched threshold;
Once another threshold is touched, here we may generate a signal but only once !, after the first generated signal at that threshold we can’t generate more signals on this threshold, we need to wait when CVD comes to another threshold.
If CVD touches one threshold, and then goes down and touches another threshold downwards, we wait when CVD makes a datapoint above this threshold. When it happens, we register a long signal
If CVD touches one threshold, and then goes up and touches another threshold upwards, we wait when CVD makes a datapoint below this threshold. When it happens, we register a short signal
However, don’t open new trades against the current volume imbalance state. So don’t open shorts when the CDV line is blue, and don’t open longs when CVD line is red.
Btw, this technique I call it “reclaim” of a level/threshold. It can be applied to horizontal levels, and it’s very powerful especially when you fade levels on very volatility assets like BTC. This technique allows you to Not fade a level straight away, but wait when price goes past the level a bit, and then comes back and reclaims it, only there you enter, and moreover you now have a very well defined risk point.
The last part is multi-timeframe logic. Prefer to act when a lower timeframe is Not against the main timeframe. That’s all, no multiple higher timeframes are needed.
3. How to use it together with Liquidity Analysis script.
That script also has a mean to generate its own signals, and another state variable called Liquidity Imbalance.
So now you’re not only looking at volume imbalance but also at liquidity imbalance that would deny/confirm the CVD based signal. You need at least one of these two to favor your long or short.
This is the same logic widely used in HFT, where MM bots cancel/shift/resize orders when book is too onesided And ordeflow is one sided as well.
4. How did I use both scripts to finish The Leap profitably and skipped many losses.
Even tho you can use structural information as your main strategic layer, as many so-called orderflow traders do, I traded in objective style: my fade signals were volatility based in essence, and I used ordeflow for better entries and stops, but most importantly to skip losses.
When ‘both‘ liquidity imbalance and volume imbalance (in their main timeframes) were against my trades, I skipped them all, saving many ~$500 stop losses (that was my basis risk unit for the Leap). Unless I had a very strong objective signal, i.e. confluence of several signals, or just one higher timeframe signal, I did all these skips.
I traded ~ intraweek timeframe, so I was analyzing either the last 230 30min bars or 1380 5min bars. Both Liquidity Analysis and (signed) Volume Analysis scripts were set to moving window length 46 or 276 for either granularity.
I finished the leap with 9% profit and max DD ~ 5%, a bit short of my goal of 12.5%. If not these 2 scripts I would’ve finished a bit above breakeven I think.
,,,
Another thing, I made these 2 scripts invite-only because they are made particularly for trading, particularly for certain types of market data. These are tools adapted for particular use case, not like my other posts with general math entities like Kernel Density Estimation or Kalman filter, that you can take and apply properly on any data you need yourself.
However these are made from general math entities like everything else. ‘All’ the components are available in my other scripts, ideas, and other sources related to me. If you want to reverse-engineer these, you can find all the components you need in my already posted open source work.

Liquidity Analysis🙏🏻 Liquidity Analysis is 1 of 2 structural layer / orderflow layer analysis scripts. Both are independent so can’t be released together as a single script, but should be used together. The second one which is called (Signed) Volume Analysis is incoming.
The same math used in this script can be applied on other types of profile-like data: orderbooks, trading volumes of all options for each strike.
Important: market or volume profile, just as orderbooks and options traded volume by strikes, are all liquidity ‘estimates’, showing where liquidity is more likely or less likely to be. These estimates however, especially combined with other info, are really useful and reliable.
This script works with inferred volumes vs the provided one. It's the better choice for equities, bonds; neutral choice for currencies; and suboptimal choice for natural & artificial commodities.

How to use it together with upcoming (Signed) Volume Analysis script;
How did I use both scripts to finish The Leap profitably and skipped many losses.
1. Output description
Color of the profile reflects the liquidity imbalance state: red is negative, purple is neutral, blue is positive.
Bar coloring represents history values of liquidity imbalance for backtesting purposes. It can be turned on/off in the script's Style settings.
Two purple vertical lines represent calculated borders of excessive liquidity (HVN), scarce liquidity (LVN), and sufficient liquidity (NVN) zones.
Vertical dash line marks the moving window end, this way you can be certain over what exact data you see the profile was built.
2. How to analyze & use the outputs
Setup up the script:
Moving window length: set it to ~ ¼ of your data analysis window. E.g if you see on your charts and use ~ 256 bars, set the length to 64.
Native tick size multiplier: leave it at 0 to calculate optimal number of rows automatically, or set it manually to match native tick size multiples you desire.
Use 2 timeframes: main one and a far lower one 3 steps down, just like on the screenshot.
Native lot size multiplier allows to round profile rows themselves to nearest multiples of native lot size. I added this just in case any1 needs it.
Find out current liquidity imbalance state:
As mentioned before, based on profile color, it can be negative, neutral or positive. This is the state variable that changes slowly and denies/confirms the signals that would be explained in the minute.
I use my own statistically grounded imbalance metric (no hardcoded/learned thresholds), that unlike mainstream imbalance metrics (e.g orderbook imbalance as sum of bids vs sum of asks) provides a natural neutral zone, when liquidity imbalance is ofc there but not strong enough to be considered.
…
Profile-based signals: look at profile shape vs 2 vertical purple lines.
where profile rows exceed the left purple line, these prices are considered HVN. Too much potential liquidity is there.
where profile rows don’t exceed the right purple line, these prices are considered LVN. Potential thin/lack of liquidity is expected there.
where profile rows are in between these 2 purple lines, these are NVN, or neutral liquidity zones.
Trading ruleset itself is based on couple of simple rules:
Only! Use limit orders hence provide liquidity in LVNs and Only! use stop-market orders hence consume liquidity in HVNs;
These orders should be put in advance ‘only’. This is how you discover the direction or orders: you can only put sell limit orders above you and buy limit orders below you, and you can only put buy stop orders above you, and sell stop orders below you.
This is really it. It may look weird, but once you just try to follow these 2 rules letter by letter for 1 hour, you’ll see how liquidity trading works.
Now once you know that, just don’t open new trades against the liquidity imbalance state. So don’t open shorts when the profile is blue, and don’t open longs when it’s red.
The last part is multi-timeframe logic. Prefer to act when a lower timeframe is Not against the main timeframe. That’s all, no multiple higher timeframes are needed.
3. How to use it together with upcoming (Signed) Volume Analysis script.
That upcoming script would also have a mean to generate its own signals, and another state variable called volume imbalance.
So now you’re not only looking at liquidity imbalance but also at volume imbalance that would deny/confirm a profile based signal. You need at least one of these to favor your long or short.
This is the same logic widely used in HFT, where MM bots cancel/shift/resize orders when book is too onesided And ordeflow is one sided as well.
4. How did I use both scripts to finish The Leap profitably and skipped many losses.
Even tho you can use structural information as your main strategic layer, as many so-called orderflow traders do, I traded in objective style: my fade signals were volatility based in essence, and I used ordeflow for better entries and stops, but most importantly to skip losses.

Gyspy Bot Trade Engine - V1.2B - Alerts - 12-7-25 - SignalLynxGypsy Bot Trade Engine (MK6 V1.2B) - Alerts & Visualization
Brought to you by Signal Lynx | Automation for the Night-Shift Nation 🌙
1. Executive Summary & Architecture
Gypsy Bot (MK6 V1.2B) is not merely a strategy; it is a massive, modular Trade Engine built specifically for the TradingView Pine Script V6 environment. While most tools rely on a single dominant indicator to generate signals, Gypsy Bot functions as a sophisticated Consensus Algorithm.
Note: This is the Indicator / Alerts version of the engine. It is designed for visual analysis and generating live alert signals for automation. If you wish to see Backtest data (Equity Curves, Drawdown, Profit Factors), please use the Strategy version of this script.
The engine calculates data from up to 12 distinct Technical Analysis Modules simultaneously on every bar closing. It aggregates these signals into a "Vote Count" and only fires a signal plot when a user-defined threshold of concurring signals is met. This "Voting System" acts as a noise filter, requiring multiple independent mathematical models—ranging from volume flow and momentum to cyclical harmonics and trend strength—to agree on market direction.
Beyond entries, Gypsy Bot features a proprietary Risk Management suite called the Dump Protection Team (DPT). This logic layer operates independently of the entry modules, specifically scanning for "Moon" (Parabolic) or "Nuke" (Crash) volatility events to signal forced exits, preserving capital during Black Swan events.
2. ⚠️ The Philosophy of "Curve Fitting" (Must Read)
One must be careful when applying Gypsy Bot to new pairs or charts.
To be fully transparent: Gypsy Bot is, by definition, a very advanced curve-fitting engine. Because it grants the user granular control over 12 modules, dozens of thresholds, and specific voting requirements, it is extremely easy to "over-fit" the data. You can easily toggle switches until the charts look perfect in hindsight, only to have the signals fail in live markets because they were tuned to historical noise rather than market structure.
To use this engine successfully:
Visual Verification: Do not just look for "green arrows." Look for signals that occur at logical market structure points.
Stability: Ensure signals are not flickering. This script uses closed-candle logic for key decisions to ensure that once a signal plots, it remains painted.
Regular Maintenance is Mandatory: Markets shift regimes (e.g., from Bull Trend to Crab Range). Gypsy Bot settings should be reviewed and adjusted at regular intervals to ensure the voting logic remains aligned with current market volatility.
Timeframe Recommendations:
Gypsy Bot is optimized for High Time Frame (HTF) trend following. It generally produces the most reliable results on charts ranging from 1-Hour to 12-Hours, with the 4-Hour timeframe historically serving as the "sweet spot" for most major cryptocurrency assets.
3. The Voting Mechanism: How Entries Are Generated
The heart of the Gypsy Bot engine is the ActivateOrders input (found in the "Order Signal Modifier" settings).
The engine constantly monitors the output of all enabled Modules.
Long Votes: GoLongCount
Short Votes: GoShortCount
If you have 10 Modules enabled, and you set ActivateOrders to 7:
The engine will ONLY plot a Buy Signal if 7 or more modules return a valid "Buy" signal on the same closed candle.
If only 6 modules agree, the signal is rejected.
4. Technical Deep Dive: The 12 Modules
Gypsy Bot allows you to toggle the following modules On/Off individually to suit the asset you are trading.
Module 1: Modified Slope Angle (MSA)
Logic: Calculates the geometric angle of a moving average relative to the timeline.
Function: Filters out "lazy" trends. A trend is only considered valid if the slope exceeds a specific steepness threshold.
Module 2: Correlation Trend Indicator (CTI)
Logic: Measures how closely the current price action correlates to a straight line (a perfect trend).
Function: Ensures that we are moving up with high statistical correlation, reducing fake-outs.
Module 3: Ehlers Roofing Filter
Logic: A spectral filter combining High-Pass (trend removal) and Super Smoother (noise removal).
Function: Isolates the "Roof" of price action to catch cyclical turning points before standard moving averages.
Module 4: Forecast Oscillator
Logic: Uses Linear Regression forecasting to predict where price "should" be relative to where it is.
Function: Signals when the regression trend flips. Offers "Aggressive" and "Conservative" calculation modes.
Module 5: Chandelier ATR Stop
Logic: A volatility-based trend follower that hangs a "leash" (ATR multiple) from extremes.
Function: Used as an entry filter. If price is above the Chandelier line, the trend is Bullish.
Module 6: Crypto Market Breadth (CMB)
Logic: Pulls data from multiple major tickers (BTC, ETH, and Perpetual Contracts).
Function: Calculates "Market Health." If Bitcoin is rising but the rest of the market is dumping, this module can veto a trade.
Module 7: Directional Index Convergence (DIC)
Logic: Analyzes the convergence/divergence between Fast and Slow Directional Movement indices.
Function: Identifies when trend strength is expanding.
Module 8: Market Thrust Indicator (MTI)
Logic: A volume-weighted breadth indicator using Advance/Decline and Volume data.
Function: One of the most powerful modules. Confirms that price movement is supported by actual volume flow. Recommended setting: "SSMA" (Super Smoother).
Module 9: Simple Ichimoku Cloud
Logic: Traditional Japanese trend analysis.
Function: Checks for a "Kumo Breakout." Price must be fully above/below the Cloud to confirm entry.
Module 10: Simple Harmonic Oscillator
Logic: Analyzes harmonic wave properties to detect cyclical tops and bottoms.
Function: Serves as a counter-trend or early-reversal detector.
Module 11: HSRS Compression / Super AO
Logic: Detects volatility compression (HSRS) or Momentum/Trend confluence (Super AO).
Function: Great for catching explosive moves resulting from consolidation.
Module 12: Fisher Transform (MTF)
Logic: Converts price data into a Gaussian normal distribution.
Function: Identifies extreme price deviations. Uses Multi-Timeframe (MTF) logic to ensure you aren't trading against the major trend.
5. Global Inhibitors (The Veto Power)
Even if 12 out of 12 modules vote "Buy," Gypsy Bot performs a final safety check using Global Inhibitors.
Bitcoin Halving Logic: Prevents trading during chaotic weeks surrounding Halving events (dates projected through 2040).
Miner Capitulation: Uses Hash Rate Ribbons to identify bearish regimes when miners are shutting down.
ADX Filter: Prevents trading in "Flat/Choppy" markets (Low ADX).
CryptoCap Trend: Checks the total Crypto Market Cap chart for broad market alignment.
6. Risk Management & The Dump Protection Team (DPT)
Even in this Indicator version, the RM logic runs to generate Exit Signals.
Dump Protection Team (DPT): Detects "Nuke" (Crash) or "Moon" (Pump) volatility signatures. If triggered, it plots an immediate Exit Signal (Yellow Plot).
Advanced Adaptive Trailing Stop (AATS): Dynamically tightens stops in low volatility ("Dungeon") and loosens them in high volatility ("Penthouse").
Staged Take Profits: Plots TP1, TP2, and TP3 events on the chart for visual confirmation or partial exit alerts.
7. Recommended Setup Guide
When applying Gypsy Bot to a new chart, follow this sequence:
Set Timeframe: 4 Hours (4H).
Tune DPT: Adjust "Dump/Moon Protection" inputs first. These filter out bad signals during high volatility.
Tune Module 8 (MTI): Experiment with the MA Type (SSMA is recommended).
Select Modules: Enable/Disable modules based on the asset's personality (Trending vs. Ranging).
Voting Threshold: Adjust ActivateOrders to filter out noise.
Alert Setup: Once visually satisfied, use the "Any Alert Function Call" option when creating an alert in TradingView to capture all Buy/Sell/Close events generated by the engine.
8. Technical Specs
Engine Version: Pine Script V6
Repainting: This indicator uses Closed Candle data for all Risk Management and Entry decisions. This ensures that signals do not vanish after the candle closes.
Visuals:
Blue Plot: Buy/Sell Signal.
Yellow Plot: Risk Management (RM) / DPT Close Signal.
Green/Lime/Olive Plots: Take Profit hits.

XΩ — T+ Sentiment Sniper
**XΩ — T+ Sentiment Sniper**
Crowd psychology helper for timing T+ reversals and managing risk
---
### 1. What is XΩ — T+ Sentiment Sniper?
XΩ — T+ Sentiment Sniper is a **crowd sentiment companion indicator**.
It estimates whether the market as a whole is currently:
- Deep in profit (euphoria, FOMO‑prone)
- Deep in loss (panic, capitulation‑prone)
- Slightly profitable / slightly losing
From that, it marks:
- Potential **supply/demand absorption** zones at panic lows and euphoric highs
- **Sentiment divergences** between price and crowd PnL
You use it as a **psychology layer on top of your main system**, especially for timing T+ style moves (the next 1–3 swings after an emotional extreme).
You do not need to understand the internal math to use it.
---
### 2. How to read the panel
The indicator runs in a **separate pane** (not on the price chart) and shows:
1. **Crowd Sentiment (Raw) – columns**
- Green/red columns represent how “good” or “bad” the crowd’s current PnL is.
- Taller columns = more emotional / more extreme conditions.
2. **Signal Line – white line**
- A smoothed line summarising the **overall direction of sentiment**.
- Helps you see whether psychology is improving or deteriorating.
3. **Horizontal levels**
- `0 (Neutral)` → sentiment is roughly balanced.
- `Euphoria` → crowd is strongly in profit (high risk of FOMO and distribution).
- `Panic` → crowd is deeply underwater (high risk of capitulation and absorption).
4. **Dashboard label on the latest bar**
- Status: `EUPHORIA (Risk)`, `PANIC (Opp.)`, `SLIGHT PROFIT`, or `SLIGHT LOSS`.
- Current **Crowd PnL (%)**.
- A short note about volume (stable vs unusually high, with a T+2 warning when needed).
At a glance, you know:
> “Is the market currently euphoric, panicking, or somewhere in between?”
---
### 3. What the signals mean
The indicator plots shapes at the top/bottom of the pane:
- **ABS (Absorption – Buy)**
- Small green circle near the bottom.
- Suggests **demand absorption**: sentiment is bad (panic), but strong buying appears against the selling.
- Use as a **potential bottom area** to watch, not an automatic “buy now”.
- **DST (Distribution – Sell)**
- Small red circle near the top.
- Suggests **distribution**: sentiment is very positive (euphoria), but strong selling appears into that optimism.
- Use as a **potential top area** to watch for taking profits or avoiding FOMO entries.
- **DIV triangle up (Bullish Div – Buy)**
- Yellow triangle pointing up near the bottom.
- Price makes new lows while sentiment stops getting worse and starts to improve.
- Suggests selling pressure is fading; potential for an upward reversal.
- **DIV triangle down (Bearish Div – Sell)**
- Orange triangle pointing down near the top.
- Price makes new highs while sentiment stops getting better and starts to weaken.
- Suggests buying pressure is fading; potential for a downward reversal.
Think of these as **context signals / alerts**, not as “must‑take” entries on their own.
---
### 4. Suggested ways to use it
#### 4.1. As a context filter before entering trades
Use Sentiment Sniper to avoid trading directly into emotional extremes:
- Avoid opening **new longs** when:
- The indicator is in the **Euphoria** zone and you see **DST or Bearish DIV** near resistance.
- Avoid opening **new shorts** when:
- The indicator is in the **Panic** zone and you see **ABS or Bullish DIV** near support.
In other words, use it as a **“do not chase” filter** for tops and bottoms.
---
#### 4.2. To spot potential T+ reversal zones
Example workflow:
1. Use your normal tools to mark **key zones** (support/resistance, liquidity areas, higher‑timeframe levels).
2. When price reaches those zones, look at T+ Sentiment Sniper:
- Near **Panic** with **ABS or Bullish DIV** → watch for potential long opportunities.
- Near **Euphoria** with **DST or Bearish DIV** → watch for potential short/exit opportunities.
3. Only take trades when:
- You also have confirmation from your own system (reversal candle, structure break, etc.).
4. Expect a **T+ style move** (1–3 swings) away from the extreme.
---
#### 4.3. To manage open positions
- When you are **heavily in profit**:
- If Sentiment Sniper moves into **Euphoria** and starts printing **DST or Bearish DIV**, consider:
- Taking partial profits
- Tightening stops
- Reducing risk to protect gains
- When you are **stuck in drawdown**:
- If sentiment is deep in **Panic** but there is **no** ABS or Bullish DIV yet, be careful:
- Avoid catching a falling knife too early.
- Look for sentiment to stabilise (ABS/DIV + your own confirmation) before committing.
---
### 5. User‑level settings (simple view)
You typically only need to think of them like this:
- **Half-Life (Memory Decay)**
- Higher value → sentiment reacts more slowly (more “long‑term” feel).
- Lower value → sentiment reacts faster to recent moves (better for short‑term trading).
- **Euphoria / Panic Threshold (%)**
- Define what counts as an “extreme”.
- For very volatile assets (crypto, small caps), you may want slightly wider thresholds.
- For calmer markets (majors, large caps), slightly tighter thresholds may be enough.
- **Avg Volume Length**
- Period to define “normal” volume.
- Spikes above this are used to flag meaningful absorption/distribution.
- **Show Sentiment Divergence / Show Supply/Demand Absorption**
- Turn off one or both if you feel the chart is too crowded.
- Keep only the parts that match your own style.
---
### 6. Alerts
In TradingView’s **Alerts** panel you will find:
- `XΩ SNIPER BUY`
- Triggers when a **psychological Buy** signal appears (Absorption or Bullish Divergence, if enabled).
- `XΩ SNIPER SELL`
- Triggers when a **psychological Sell** signal appears (Distribution or Bearish Divergence, if enabled).
Use alerts to be notified when the crowd hits important **Panic/Euphoria zones**, without watching the screen all day.
---
### 7. Important notes
- This is a **sentiment / context tool**, not a standalone “black box” system.
- Always combine it with:
- Price structure on higher timeframes
- Your own entry/exit rules
- Proper risk management
- Backtest and forward‑test before applying it with real capital.
Apex Trend & Liquidity Master with TP/SLThe Apex Trend & Liquidity Master is a systematic trading framework that identifies trend direction and key structural price levels for entry and exit decisions. The system uses a volatility-adaptive trend detection mechanism built on Hull Moving Averages with ATR-based bands to filter consolidation periods and isolate directional moves.
The liquidity detection engine identifies potential reversal zones by marking swing highs and lows that meet statistical significance thresholds. These zones represent areas where institutional order flow previously caused price rejection. Zones remain active until price closes through them, indicating mitigation of the level.
This implementation is an enhanced derivative of the original system with fully automated risk management. Stop losses are calculated using ATR multiples with entry candle wick protection as a minimum threshold, while take profits maintain a fixed 3:1 risk-reward ratio. An additional exit mechanism closes profitable positions when price reaches opposing supply or demand zones, providing early profit-taking at probable reversal points before full target completion.
Entry signals generate only on trend changes when volume exceeds average levels, reducing false breakouts in ranging conditions. The system includes complete position tracking with three distinct exit types: take profit hits, stop loss hits, and profitable zone contact exits. All calculations use confirmed historical data with no forward-looking bias, though supply/demand zone identification operates with a confirmation lag inherent to pivot point detection.
HTF/CTF High/Low Mitigation with SignalsHTF/CTF High/Low Mitigation with Signals Indicator
Overview
HTF/CTF High/Low Mitigation with Signals (shortened as "H/L Signals+") is an advanced overlay indicator for TradingView, designed to identify and visualize higher timeframe (HTF) and current timeframe (CTF) swing highs/lows, track their mitigation, and generate filtered buy/sell signals using an EMA ribbon trend filter. It incorporates automated trade simulation with risk/reward (RR) visualization, position sizing based on user-defined risk, and a statistics table for performance evaluation. This tool is ideal for multi-timeframe traders focusing on swing trading, breakout strategies, or trend reversals across assets like forex, futures, metals (e.g., XAU/USD, XAG/USD), stocks, or cryptocurrencies.
The "meshup" (mashup) integrates several complementary elements: Multi-timeframe swing level detection (HTF for broader structure, CTF for finer details) with mitigation logic ensures signals align with market structure breaks; an EMA ribbon provides a dynamic trend bias to filter counter-trend trades; risk management automates position sizing and RR calculations for disciplined trading; and built-in backtesting stats offer quick insights into hypothetical performance. This combination reduces noise from isolated indicators—e.g., raw swings can be choppy, EMAs alone lag structure, and manual RR is error-prone—creating a cohesive system for spotting high-probability setups where structure, trend, and risk align. By meshing these, it aims to enhance decision-making in trending or ranging markets, though it's reactive and best used with confirmation. Note: This is a technical tool for educational purposes only; it does not provide financial advice, guarantees of profitability, or trading recommendations. Past performance is not indicative of future results, and users should backtest thoroughly on their specific assets/timeframes, in compliance with TradingView's house rules.
Key Features
• HTF Swing Levels: Detects and draws session highs/lows from a user-selected higher timeframe (e.g., Daily), extends lines until mitigated (by wick or body close), with alerts on mitigation.
• CTF Swing Levels: Identifies local swing highs/lows on the chart timeframe using a pivot candle formation (default 5-candle), with separate limits for unmitigated/mitigated lines.
• EMA Ribbon: A three-EMA system (fast 8, mid 13, slow 21) with gradient fills (green for bullish, red for bearish) to visualize trend strength and filter signals.
• Signal Generation: Buy/sell labels ("BUY"/"SELL") triggered post-mitigation when price aligns with EMA trend (e.g., above slow EMA with stacked bulls for buys).
• Trade Simulation & Risk Management: On signals, calculates stop-loss (SL) from recent extremes, position size based on fixed risk amount (e.g., $100 per trade, adjusted for asset type like futures point value or forex lots), and full take-profit (TP) at user-defined RR level (1-5). Draws RR boxes for visuals.
• Statistics Table: Displays total trades, wins/losses, win rate (%), net R-return, and max consecutive losses in a top-right table.
• Alerts: Customizable alerts for HTF mitigations and new trades (including entry, SL, TP, size).
• Visual Customizations: Toggle lines/ribbon/boxes, adjust colors/styles/widths for unmitigated/mitigated lines (HTF/CTF), min box width.
• Performance Optimization: Automatically cleans up excess lines to stay within max limits (e.g., 15 unmitigated HTF, 5 CTF).
How It Works
• HTF Logic: On new HTF bars (via time(htf_timeframe)), captures session high/low and draws extendable lines. Lines extend rightward until mitigated (high/close > high level for highs, low/close < low level for lows, toggle wick/body). Mitigation sets "waiting" flags for signals and triggers alerts.
• CTF Logic: Scans for pivot highs/lows using a user-defined candle count (e.g., 2 left/right for 5-candle swings). Draws and extends lines similarly, mitigating on wick touches, with separate styles for mitigated (e.g., dotted gray).
• EMA Ribbon Logic: Computes 8/13/21 EMAs; fills mid-slow and fast-mid with bullish green (close > slow EMA) or bearish red gradients.
• Signal Conditions: Post-mitigation (waiting_for_buy/sell true), checks EMA stack—buys require close > slow, fast > mid > slow; sells require close < slow, fast < mid < slow. Signals only on confirmed bars.
• Trade Execution: On signal, sets entry at close, scans back to mitigation bar for tightest SL (lowest low for buys, highest high for sells). Calculates risk points (entry - SL for buys), then position size via helper function (asset-specific: e.g., XAU *100, futures *pointvalue, forex 100000pointvalue). Sets full TP at entry ± (risk * full_tp_level). Draws risk/reward boxes (e.g., long: dark risk below entry, blue reward above) with RR and size text. Alerts with trade details.
• Trade Management: Monitors for SL hit (low <= SL for longs) or TP hit (high >= TP for longs); updates stats (wins if TP, losses if SL, tracks consec losses, net R as +full_tp_level or -1). Places summary label ("Hit TP5 (Win)" or "Stopped Out (Loss)").
• Cleanup: Counts unmitigated/mitigated lines; deletes oldest excess to respect max limits (e.g., max_lines_input=15 for HTF unmitigated, max_mit_lines_ctf=5 for CTF mitigated).
• Why This Meshup?: Standalone tools often fall short—HTF swings ignore local noise, but without CTF, miss entries; EMAs filter trends but overlook structure; manual RR lacks automation. Meshing them creates a "mitigation-to-signal" flow: HTF/CTF provide structural context (e.g., BOS/CHOCH), EMA ensures trend alignment (reducing whipsaws), and RR simulation adds practical risk control with stats for optimization. This holistic approach potentially improves edge in structure-based trading, especially in volatile markets, by combining macro/micro analysis with quantifiable risk—though it may lag in ranges or require tuning.
All logic uses arrays for line management, barstate.isconfirmed for reliability, and syminfo for asset-specific sizing. No repainting, but historical trades simulate based on chart data.

Usage Tips
• Multi-Timeframe Strategy: Use HTF (e.g., D1) for major levels, CTF for entries. Signals post-mitigation with EMA filter—enter on "BUY"/"SELL" labels, use boxes for RR visualization.
• Risk Management: Set risk_amount_per_trade to 1-2% of capital; adjust full_tp_level for strategy (e.g., 3 for conservative). Position size auto-adapts to asset (e.g., smaller for high-vol like XAU).
• Customization: Enable wick mitigation for aggressive setups; increase max lines in trending markets. Tune EMAs for asset (shorter for crypto).
• Alerts Integration: Use for notifications on mitigations or trades; messages include all details for quick action.
• Stats Analysis: Table shows hypothetical results—use for optimization (e.g., aim for >50% win rate, low consec losses). Reset on chart reload.
• Chart Compatibility: Best on candlestick charts; test on lower TFs with higher HTF for confluence.
Limitations
• Reactive Signals: Waits for mitigation + EMA alignment, so may miss early reversals or lag in fast markets.
• Chop in Ranges: Frequent mitigations without trend can generate false signals; EMA helps but not foolproof.
• Simulation Only: Trades are backtested on visible data—no live execution; stats assume full TP or SL hits, ignoring partials or slippage.
• Line Limits: Caps at user max to prevent overload; oldest deleted first.
• Asset Specificity: Position sizing tailored to forex/futures/metals; may need tweaks for others.
• Disclaimer: For informational use only. Trading involves risk of loss; results vary by market, timeframe, and settings. Consult professionals and backtest extensively. No profitability claims per TradingView rules.
VB-MainLiteVB-MainLite – v1.0 Initial Release
Overview
VB-MainLite is a consolidated market-structure and execution framework designed to streamline decision-making into a single chart-level view. The script combines multi-timeframe trend, volatility, volume, and liquidity signals into one cohesive visual layer, reducing indicator clutter while preserving depth of information for active traders.
Core Architecture
Trend Backbone – EMA 200
Dedicated EMA 200 acts as the primary trend filter and higher-timeframe bias reference.
Serves as the “spine” of the system for contextualizing all secondary signals (swings, reversals, volume events, etc.).
Custom MA Suite (Envelope Ready)
Four configurable moving averages with flexible source, length, and smoothing.
Default configuration (preset idea: “8/89 Envelope”):
MA #1: EMA 8 on high
MA #2: EMA 8 on low
MA #3: EMA 89 on high
MA #4: EMA 89 on low
All four are disabled by default to keep the chart minimal. Users can toggle them on from the Custom MAs group for envelope or cloud-style configurations.
Nadaraya–Watson Smoother (Swing Framework)
Gaussian-kernel Nadaraya–Watson regression applied to price (hl2) to build a smooth synthetic curve.
Two layers of functionality:
Swing labels (▲ / ▼) at inflection points in the smoothed curve.
Optional curve line that visually tracks the turning structure over the last ~500 bars.
Designed to surface early swing potential before standard MAs react.
Hull Moving Average (Trend Overlay)
Optional Hull MA (HMA) for faster trend visualization.
Color-coded by slope (buy/sell bias).
Default: off to prevent overloading the chart; can be enabled under Hull MA settings.
Momentum, Exhaustion & Pattern Engine
CCI-Based Bar Coloring
CCI applied to close with configurable thresholds.
Overbought / oversold CCI zones map directly into candle coloring to visually highlight short-term momentum extremes.
RSI Top / Bottom Exhaustion Finder
RSI logic applied separately to high-driven (tops) and low-driven (bottoms) sequences.
Plots:
Top arrows where high-side RSI stretches into high-risk territory.
Bottom arrows where low-side RSI indicates exhaustion on the downside.
Useful as confluence around the Nadaraya swing turns and EMA 200 regime.
Engulfing + MA Trend Engine (“Fat Bull / Fat Bear”)
Detects bullish and bearish engulfing patterns, then combines them with MA trend cross logic.
Only when both pattern and MA regime align does the engine flag:
Fat Bull (Engulf + MA aligned long)
Fat Bear (Engulf + MA aligned short)
Candles are marked via conditional barcolor to highlight strong, structured shifts in control.
Fat Finger Detection (Wick Spikes / Stop Runs)
Identifies abnormal wick extensions relative to the prior bar’s body range with configurable tolerance.
Supports detection of potential liquidity grabs, stop runs, or “excess” that may precede reversals or mean-reversion behavior.
Volume & Liquidity Intelligence
Bull Snort (Aggressive Buy Spikes)
Flags events where:
Volume is significantly above the 50-period average, and
Price closes in the upper portion of the bar and above prior close.
Plots a labeled marker below the bar to indicate aggressive upside initiative by buyers.
Pocket Pivots (Accumulation Flags)
Compares current volume vs prior 10 sessions with a filter on prior “up” days.
Highlights pocket pivot days where current green candle volume outclasses recent down-day volumes, suggesting stealth accumulation.
Delta Volume Core (Directional Volume by Price)
Internal volume-by-price style engine over a user-defined lookback.
Splits volume into up-close and down-close buckets across dynamic price bins.
Feeds into S&R and ICT zone logic to quantify where buying vs selling pressure built up.
Structural Context: S&R and ICT Zones
S&R Power Channel
Computes local high/low band over a configurable lookback window.
Renders:
Upper and lower S&R channel lines.
Shaded support / resistance zones using boxes.
Adds Buy Power / Sell Power metrics based on the ratio of up vs down bars inside the window, displayed directly in the zone overlays.
Drops ◈ markers where price interacts dynamically with the top or bottom band, highlighting reaction points.
ICT-Style Premium / Discount & Macro Zones
Two tiered structures:
Local Premium / Discount zones over a shorter SR window.
Macro Premium / Discount zones over a longer macro window.
Each zone:
Uses underlying directional volume to annotate accumulation vs distribution bias.
Provides Delta Volume Bias shading in the mid-band region, visually encoding whether local power flows are net-buying or net-selling.
Enables traders to quickly see whether current trade location is in a local/macro discount or premium context while still respecting volume profile.
Positioning Intelligence: PCD (Stocks)
Position Cost Distribution (PCD) – Stocks Only
Available for stock symbols on intraday up to daily timeframe (≤ 1D).
Uses:
TOTAL_SHARES_OUTSTANDING fundamentals,
Daily OHLCV snapshot, and
A bucketed distribution engine
to approximate cost basis distribution across price.
Outputs:
Horizontal “PCD bars” to the right of current price, density-scaled by estimated share concentration.
Color-coding by profitability relative to current price (profitable vs unprofitable positions).
Labels for:
Current price
Average cost
Profit ratio (share % below current price)
90% cost range
70% cost range
Range overlap as a measure of clustering / concentration.
Multi-Timeframe Trend: Two-Pole Gaussian Dashboard
Two-Pole Gaussian Filter (Line + Cloud)
Smooths a user-selected source (default: close) using a two-pole Gaussian filter with tunable alpha.
Plots:
A thin Gaussian trend line, and
A thick Gaussian “cloud” line with transparency, colored by slope vs past (offsetG).
Functions as a responsive trend backbone that is more sensitive than EMA 200 but less noisy than raw price.
Multi-Timeframe Gaussian Dashboard
Evaluates Gaussian trend direction across up to six timeframes (e.g., 1H / 2H / 4H / Daily / Weekly).
Renders a compact bottom-right table:
Header: symbol + overall bias arrow (up / down) based on average trend alignment.
Row of colored cells per timeframe (green for uptrend, magenta for downtrend) with human-readable TF labels (e.g., “60M”, “4H”, “1D”).
Gives an immediate read on whether intraday, swing, and higher-timeframe flows are aligned or fragmented.

Disabled by default (opt-in):
Custom MA suite (4x MAs, preset as EMA 8/8/89/89)
Hull MA overlay
How traders can use VB-MainLite in practice:
Use EMA 200 + Gaussian dashboard to define top-down directional bias and avoid trading directly against multi-TF trend.
Use Nadaraya swing labels, RSI exhaustion arrows, and CCI bar colors to time entries within that higher-timeframe bias.
Use Fat Bull / Fat Bear events as structured confirmation that both pattern and MA regime have flipped in the same direction.
Use Bull Snort, Pocket Pivots, and S&R / ICT zones to align execution with liquidity, volume, and location (premium vs discount).
On stocks, use PCD as a positioning map to understand trapped supply, support zones near crowded cost basis, and where profit-taking is likely.
Dark Vector ScalpingThe Dark Vector Scalping indicator is a high-frequency trend-following system designed specifically to capture rapid momentum shifts in the market. It combines a staircase-style breakout logic with volatility-adjusted trailing stops to define market direction.
While the underlying math is robust enough for various asset classes, this specific configuration is optimized for scalping operations on 1-minute and 5-minute timeframes. It aims to filter out the "noise" common in lower timeframes while reacting quickly to genuine breakouts.
Core Components
1. The Apex Engine (Staircase Logic) Unlike traditional moving averages that curve with price, this engine uses a "hard" breakout logic. It looks back at a specific number of bars (Sensitivity) to find the highest highs and lowest lows.
Bullish Flip: Occurs when the price closes below the calculated low of the previous trend.
Bearish Flip: Occurs when the price closes above the calculated high of the previous trend.
Trailing Stop: Once a trend is established, a trailing stop line is drawn. This line only moves in the direction of the trend (up for bullish, down for bearish) and never retraces, acting as a ratchet to lock in paper profits.
2. Volatility Normalization To prevent getting stopped out by random market noise (scam wicks), the indicator calculates the Average True Range (ATR). It multiplies this volatility metric by a user-defined deviation factor to determine exactly how far the stop line should be from the current price action.
3. The Hull Moving Average (HMA) Filter The script includes an optional 50-period Hull Moving Average. The HMA is known for being extremely fast and smooth, reducing lag compared to standard moving averages.
Visual Reference: You can plot the line to see the overall macro trend.
Hard Filter: You can enable a "Safety Filter" in the settings. If enabled, the system will only generate Buy signals if the price is above the HMA, and Sell signals if the price is below the HMA.
4. The Dashboard A data panel is located on the chart (customizable position) to provide instant numerical data without needing to calculate levels manually. It displays the current trend state, the exact price of the trailing stop, and the status of the HMA filter.
Settings & Configuration
Sensitivity (Lookback)
Default: 5
This is the primary setting for the Apex Engine. A setting of 5 is the "sweet spot" for 1-minute and 5-minute charts. It allows the system to react very quickly to sudden volume spikes. Increasing this number (e.g., to 10) will make the signals slower and more conservative.
Stop Deviation
Default: 3.0
This controls the "breathing room" for the trade. A value of 3.0 allows for standard volatility on minute charts without triggering a premature exit. Lowering this to 2.0 will result in tighter stops but more false signals.
HMA Filter
Use HMA as Filter? (Default: OFF):
When OFF, the system signals purely on price action breakouts (fastest).
When ON, the system waits for the price to align with the 50-period HMA before signaling (safest, but may delay entry).
How to Interpret Visuals
Candle Colors
Teal/Green: The market is in a Bullish regime.
Red/Pink: The market is in a Bearish regime.
The Line
The solid stepped line represents the hard invalidation point. If price closes beyond this line, the trend is considered over.
Diamond Signals
Light Green Diamond (Below Bar): Confirmed Buy Signal. A new bullish trend has started.
Light Red/Pink Diamond (Above Bar): Confirmed Sell Signal. A new bearish trend has started.
Trading Strategy Guide
The Scalp Entry
Ensure you are on a 1-minute or 5-minute timeframe.
Wait for a signal Diamond to close. Do not enter while the bar is still forming, as the signal may repaint (disappear) if the price retraces before the close.
Long Entry: Enter when a Green Diamond appears and the candle turns Teal.
Short Entry: Enter when a Red Diamond appears and the candle turns Red.
Risk Management
Stop Loss: Your invalidation level is the "Apex Stop" line. You can place your hard stop loss slightly beyond this line.
Take Profit: Because this is a trend-following system, it is often best to hold until the candle color changes, or to take profit at fixed Risk:Reward ratios (e.g., 1:1.5 or 1:2).
The HMA Nuance If you find the market is "choppy" (moving sideways), enable the "Use HMA as Filter" option in the settings. This will force the system to ignore signals that are counter-trend to the longer-term momentum.
Disclaimer
The information provided by the "Dark Vector Scalping" indicator and this accompanying guide is for educational and informational purposes only. It does not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice. Trading cryptocurrencies, stocks, and forex involves a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. You could lose some or all of your initial investment.
Dark VectorThe Dark Vector is a professional-grade trend-following system designed to solve the two most common causes of trading losses: over-trading during chop and exiting trends too early.
Unlike standard indicators that continuously recalculate based on every price tick, this system operates on a strict "State Machine" logic. This means it tracks the current market phase and refuses to issue conflicting signals. If the system is Long, it mathematically cannot issue another Long signal until the previous trend has concluded.
The system relies on three core engines:
1. The Trend Architecture (Modified SuperTrend) The backbone of the system is an ATR-based trailing stop mechanism. It creates a dynamic trend line that adjusts to volatility. When volatility expands, the line widens to prevent premature stop-outs during market noise. When volatility contracts, the line tightens to protect profits.
2. The Noise Gate (Choppiness Index) This is the system's safety filter. It measures the fractal efficiency of the market—essentially determining if price is moving in a clear direction or moving sideways. When the market enters a consolidation phase (sideways chop), the Noise Gate activates, turning the candles gray and physically blocking all new entry signals. This prevents the user from entering trades in low-probability environments.
3. The Singularity State Machine This internal logic enforces trading discipline. It treats the trend as a binary state (Bullish or Bearish). It forces an alternating signal pattern, ensuring that you are only alerted to the specific moment a major trend reversal occurs, rather than being bombarded with repetitive signals during a long run.
Best Way to Use This System
To maximize profitability and minimize false positives, it is recommended to use the "Regime & Alignment" methodology outlined below.
1. The Traffic Light Rule
Before placing any trade, observe the color of the candlesticks on the chart:
Green Candles: The market is in a confirmed Bullish Impulse. You should only look for Long entries or hold existing positions. Shorting is statistically dangerous here.
Red Candles: The market is in a confirmed Bearish Impulse. You should only look for Short entries or hold cash. Buying the dip here is high-risk.
Gray Candles: The market is in a Chop/Squeeze regime. The Noise Gate is active. Do not open new positions. This indicates indecision, and the market is likely to destroy option premiums or stop out tight leverage. Wait for the candles to return to Green or Red before acting.
2. The Entry Trigger
Enter a trade only when a text label (LONG or SHORT) appears.
Long Signal: Occurs when price closes above the Trend Line AND the market is not in a Chop zone.
Short Signal: Occurs when price closes below the Trend Line AND the market is not in a Chop zone.
3. The Exit Strategy
There are two ways to manage the trade once active:
The Trend Follower (Conservative): Hold the position until the Trend Line flips color. This captures the maximum duration of the move but may give back some profit at the very end.
The Stop Loss (Active): The Trend Line (the white value in your dashboard) acts as your Trailing Stop. If a candle closes beyond this line, the trend is technically invalidated. You should exit immediately.
4. Multi-Timeframe Alignment (The Golden Rule)
The highest win rates are achieved when your trading timeframe aligns with the higher-order trend.
Step 1: Check the 4-Hour chart. Is the Trend Line Green?
Step 2: Switch to the 15-Minute chart.
Step 3: Only take the LONG signals on the 15-Minute chart. Ignore all Short signals.
Reasoning: Counter-trend trades often fail. By trading only in the direction of the higher timeframe, you are swimming with the current, not against it.
Recommended Settings by Style
Swing Trading (Daily/4H): Keep the Trend Factor at 4.0. This ignores daily noise and keeps you in the trade for weeks or months.
Day Trading (1H/15m): Lower the Trend Factor to 3.0. This makes the system more reactive to intraday reversals.
Scalping (5m): Lower the Trend Factor to 2.0 and the ATR Length to 7. This is aggressive and requires strict adherence to the Stop Loss.

Super-AO with Risk Management Alerts Template - 11-29-25Super-AO with Risk Management: ALERTS & AUTOMATION Edition
Signal Lynx | Free Scripts supporting Automation for the Night-Shift Nation 🌙
1. Overview
This is the Indicator / Alerts companion to the Super-AO Strategy.
While the Strategy version is built for backtesting (verifying profitability and checking historical performance), this Indicator version is built for Live Execution.
We understand the frustration of finding a great strategy, only to realize you can't easily hook it up to your trading bot. This script solves that. It contains the exact same "Super-AO" logic and "Risk Management Engine" as the strategy version, but it is optimized to send signals to automation platforms like Signal Lynx, 3Commas, or any Webhook listener.
2. Quick Action Guide (TL;DR)
Purpose: Live Signal Generation & Automation.
Workflow:
Use the Strategy Version to find profitable settings.
Copy those settings into this Indicator Version.
Set a TradingView Alert using the "Any Alert() function call" condition.
Best Timeframe: 4 Hours (H4) and above.
Compatibility: Works with any webhook-based automation service.
3. Why Two Scripts?
Pine Script operates in two distinct modes:
Strategy Mode: Calculates equity, drawdowns, and simulates orders. Great for research, but sometimes complex to automate.
Indicator Mode: Plots visual data on the chart. This is the preferred method for setting up robust alerts because it is lighter weight and plots specific values that automation services can read easily.
The Golden Rule: Always backtest on the Strategy, but trade on the Indicator. This ensures that what you see in your history matches what you execute in real-time.
4. How to Automate This Script
This script uses a "Visual Spike" method to trigger alerts. Instead of drawing equity curves, it plots numerical values at the bottom of your chart when a trade event occurs.
The Signal Map:
Blue Spike (2 / -2): Entry Signal (Long / Short).
Yellow Spike (1 / -1): Risk Management Close (Stop Loss / Trend Reversal).
Green Spikes (1, 2, 3): Take Profit Levels 1, 2, and 3.
Setup Instructions:
Add this indicator to your chart.
Open your TradingView "Alerts" tab.
Create a new Alert.
Condition: Select SAO - RM Alerts Template.
Trigger: Select Any Alert() function call.
Message: Paste your JSON webhook message (provided by your bot service).
5. The Logic Under the Hood
Just like the Strategy version, this indicator utilizes:
SuperTrend + Awesome Oscillator: High-probability swing trading logic.
Non-Repainting Engine: Calculates signals based on confirmed candle closes to ensure the alert you get matches the chart reality.
Advanced Adaptive Trailing Stop (AATS): Internally calculates volatility to determine when to send a "Close" signal.

Buy Sell SignalBuy Sell Signal - EMA Crossover with Dynamic Risk Management
OVERVIEW
This indicator combines a dual EMA crossover system with ATR-based dynamic stop loss and take profit levels to provide complete trade management signals. Unlike basic EMA crossover scripts, this tool automatically calculates and displays entry points, stop losses, and take profit targets based on market volatility, offering traders a complete trading framework in a single indicator.
HOW IT WORKS
The indicator uses three core components working together:
Trend Detection: A fast EMA (default 5) and slow EMA (default 13) identify trend direction. When the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA, it signals bullish momentum; when it crosses below, it signals bearish momentum.
Entry Validation: Optional candle confirmation filter ensures the crossover is accompanied by a bullish/bearish candle close, reducing false signals in choppy markets.
Risk Management: Uses ATR (Average True Range, default 14 periods) to calculate:
Stop Loss: Positioned below/above recent swing low/high minus ATR multiplier (default 0.5x)
Take Profit: Calculated using customizable risk-reward ratio (default 3:1)
KEY FEATURES
✅ Automatic Position Tracking: Monitors active trades and displays current position status (LONG/SHORT/No position)
✅ Visual Trade Management: Shows entry price (white dashed line), stop loss (red line), and take profit (green line) in real-time
✅ Trade Outcome Signals: Displays clear markers when TP is hit (🎯), SL is triggered (❌), or position is invalidated by opposite signal
✅ Information Dashboard: Live table showing entry price, SL, TP, and actual R:R ratio
✅ Smart Position Invalidation: Automatically closes and invalidates previous positions when opposite trend signal appears
✅ Customizable Alerts: Five alert conditions for BUY/SELL signals, TP hits, SL triggers, and invalidations
INPUTS
Fast EMA Length (default 5): Responsive to recent price action
Slow EMA Length (default 13): Defines broader trend direction
ATR Period (default 14): Volatility measurement period
SL Multiplier (default 0.5): Distance from swing point to stop loss
Risk:Reward Ratio (default 3.0): Target profit relative to risk
Candle Confirmation (default ON): Requires bullish/bearish candle on crossover
HOW TO USE
Apply the indicator to your chart (works on all timeframes)
Adjust EMA periods based on your trading style (shorter for scalping, longer for swing trading)
Set your preferred risk-reward ratio
Enable alerts for automated notifications
When a BUY/SELL signal appears, the indicator automatically calculates and displays your complete trade plan
Monitor the information table for live position updates
Exit when TP is reached or SL is triggered
TRADING METHODOLOGY
This script implements a momentum-following strategy based on exponential moving average crossovers, enhanced with volatility-adjusted risk parameters. The ATR-based stop loss adapts to market conditions—wider stops in volatile markets, tighter stops in calm markets. The position invalidation feature prevents traders from holding outdated positions when market sentiment shifts.
BEST PRACTICES
Use on trending markets for best results
Higher timeframes (4H, Daily) produce fewer but more reliable signals.
For scalpe use 5 and 15 minutes(Risk).
Consider market context and fundamental factors alongside signals
Adjust ATR multiplier based on asset volatility
Test different EMA combinations for your preferred instruments
ORIGINALITY
While EMA crossover systems are common, this script's value lies in its complete integration of entry logic, dynamic risk management, position tracking, and automated invalidation—features typically requiring multiple separate indicators. The ATR-based stop loss calculation and automatic R:R visualization provide practical trade execution guidance that basic crossover indicators lack.
Important Notes:
This indicator does not guarantee profitable trades
Always practice proper risk management
Backtest settings on historical data before live trading
Past performance does not indicate future results

200 Week MA Extensions (Crypto Currently Strategy)Bitcoin 200 Week MA Extensions
The 200-week moving average has never been breached in Bitcoin's history, making it one of the most reliable indicators for identifying absolute market bottoms. This indicator plots the 200 Week MA along with percentage extensions above it to help identify potential cycle tops and key resistance levels during bull markets.
What is the 200 Week MA?
The 200-week simple moving average is the average closing price of Bitcoin over the past 200 weeks (approximately 3.8 years). It's a ultra-long-term trend indicator that:
Has never been broken to the downside in Bitcoin's entire history
Acts as the ultimate floor for Bitcoin price during bear markets
Rises steadily over time, reflecting Bitcoin's long-term growth trajectory
Moves slowly, making it a stable reference point for market cycles
Key Components:
200 Week MA - Blue Line (Base Level)
The foundation line that has historically marked absolute bottoms
Currently around $62,000 (and rising ~$500-800 per week)
Touching this level has historically represented generational buying opportunities
Last tested during the COVID crash (March 2020) and 2022 bear market
+50% Extension - Green Line (1.5x the 200 Week MA)
First major resistance zone above the base
Often acts as support during healthy bull market corrections
Historically a comfortable zone for accumulation in early bull markets
+100% Extension - Yellow Line (2.0x the 200 Week MA)
Double the 200 Week MA value
Represents a well-developed bull market
Often tested multiple times during mid-cycle consolidations
Can act as strong resistance when first approached
+150% Extension - Orange Line (2.5x the 200 Week MA)
Advanced bull market territory
Historically marks the acceleration phase of bull runs
Breaking above this level often signals euphoric market conditions approaching
+200% Extension - Red Line (3.0x the 200 Week MA)
Triple the 200 Week MA value
Extreme overextension zone
Historically near or beyond previous cycle tops
Suggests extreme caution and profit-taking considerations
Historical Context:
2020-2021 Bull Market:
March 2020: Price touched the 200 Week MA (~$5,000) - absolute bottom
Throughout 2020: Price traded between +50% and +100% extensions
Late 2020 - Early 2021: Price broke above +100%, accelerated to +150%
April 2021 & November 2021: Price reached +200% extension area, marking local/cycle tops
2022 Bear Market:
Price fell from +200% extension back toward the 200 Week MA
June 2022: Price came within 10% of the 200 Week MA ($18,000)
Bounce from near the 200 Week MA marked the bear market bottom
2023-2024 Recovery:
Price recovered from near 200 Week MA back through the extension levels
Each extension level acted as resistance, then support as bull market developed
Current position relative to extensions helps gauge cycle maturity
How to Use This Indicator:
For Long-Term Accumulation:
At 200 Week MA: Maximum conviction buying zone - historically has never failed
+0% to +50%: Excellent accumulation zone, low risk relative to reward
+50% to +100%: Good accumulation zone during bull market dips
Above +100%: Consider reducing accumulation, focus on holding or taking profits
For Profit Taking:
Approaching +100%: Consider taking initial profits (10-20% of position)
+100% to +150%: Take incremental profits as price advances
+150% to +200%: Increase profit-taking pace significantly
Above +200%: Maximum caution - historically unsustainable levels
For Risk Management:
Distance from 200 Week MA indicates market risk level
Further above = higher risk, more extended, closer to top
Closer to = lower risk, better value, closer to bottom
Use extensions as profit-taking targets in bull markets
Use extensions as re-entry targets during corrections
For Cycle Timing:
Bear Market: Price converges toward 200 Week MA
Early Bull: Price in +0% to +50% range, building base
Mid Bull: Price in +50% to +100% range, healthy growth
Late Bull: Price in +100% to +150% range, acceleration
Euphoric Top: Price at +150% to +200%+, extreme extension
Key Insights:
The 200 Week MA as Ultimate Support:
Bitcoin has touched or approached this level during every major bear market
It rises consistently (~$30,000 per year currently), creating a rising floor
Breaking below would be unprecedented and signal a fundamental market structure change
Provides enormous psychological and technical support
Extension Levels as Resistance/Support:
Bull markets often stall at each extension level before breaking through
Once broken, extensions often flip from resistance to support
Rejections from higher extensions can signal local or cycle tops
Corrections back to lower extensions offer re-entry opportunities
Diminishing Returns:
Each cycle's top has formed at progressively lower extension multiples
2013: ~10x the then-200WMA
2017: ~5x the then-200WMA
2021: ~3x the then-200WMA
Suggests future tops may not reach +200% extension (market maturation)
Best Practices:
Do:
Use the 200 Week MA as your ultimate risk-off level for long-term holdings
Scale into positions as price approaches the 200 Week MA
Take profits incrementally as price rises through extensions
View corrections back to lower extensions as opportunities
Combine with other on-chain metrics (MVRV, Realized Price) for confirmation
Don't:
Expect the 200 Week MA to provide perfect entry timing (you might be early)
Assume price will reach +200% extension every cycle
Sell all holdings at first extension level during bull markets
Ignore price action and volume when making decisions
Panic if price approaches the 200 Week MA (historically the best time to buy)
Why This Indicator Works:
The 200 Week MA represents nearly 4 years of price data, which:
Encompasses approximately one full Bitcoin halving cycle
Smooths out all short and medium-term volatility
Reflects Bitcoin's true long-term adoption and growth trend
Provides a slow-moving, stable reference that doesn't whipsaw
The extension levels work because:
They create objective profit-taking targets based on historical overextension
They account for the rising base (200 Week MA) over time
They've proven reliable across multiple market cycles
They help remove emotion from buy/sell decisions
Technical Notes:
Calculations performed on weekly timeframe data for consistency
The indicator displays correctly on any chart timeframe (Daily, 4H, etc.)
Uses lookahead_on to prevent repainting and show consistent historical values
All extension levels update automatically as the 200 Week MA rises
Best viewed on logarithmic scale for full historical perspective
Important Reminders:
Past performance does not guarantee future results - while the 200 Week MA has never been breached, future market conditions could differ
Market maturation - as Bitcoin matures, cycle dynamics may change
Black swan events - unexpected macro events could temporarily break historical patterns
Not financial advice - this is an educational tool, always do your own research
Recommended Usage:
Best Timeframes: Daily, Weekly, Monthly charts
Pair With: MVRV Ratio, Realized Price, Stock-to-Flow, Fear & Greed Index
Update Frequency: Weekly (the base 200 Week MA only changes weekly)
Chart Type: Logarithmic scale recommended for full historical view
Strategy Example:
Buy aggressively when price is within 20% of 200 Week MA
Hold and accumulate between 200WMA and +50% extension
Begin scaling out profits at +100% extension (20% of position)
Scale out more at +150% extension (40% of position)
Significant profit-taking at +200% extension (remaining position)
Wait for next cycle and repeat
This indicator provides a simple, objective, and historically reliable framework for navigating Bitcoin's market cycles. By respecting the 200 Week MA as the ultimate floor and using the extensions as profit-taking guides, investors can remove emotion and develop disciplined strategies for long-term success.
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

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.

Universal Scalper Indicator [Crypto/Forex/Gold]Universal Scalper Pro is an all-in-one scalping system designed for the 15-Minute Timeframe. It automates the analysis of trend, volatility, and risk management into a single, high-contrast dashboard.
Unlike standard crossover indicators, this system filters out low-volatility "noise" using a built-in ADX engine and automatically calculates dynamic Stop Loss and Take Profit levels based on market volatility (ATR).
It is engineered to work universally on:
Crypto (BTC, ETH, SOL, Altcoins)
Commodities (Gold, Silver, Oil)
Forex (Major & Minor Pairs)
Stocks (High volume tech stocks like NVDA, TSLA)
📈 How It Works (The Strategy)
1. The Trend Engine (9/21 EMA) The core logic utilizes a Fast (9) and Slow (21) Exponential Moving Average crossover.
Bullish Signal: The 9 EMA crosses above the 21 EMA.
Bearish Signal: The 9 EMA crosses below the 21 EMA. This specific combination is chosen for its responsiveness to 15-minute intraday trends.
2. The Noise Filter (ADX > 15) To prevent "whipsaws" (fake signals during sideways markets), the script includes a Volatility Filter based on the Average Directional Index (ADX).
Signals are rejected if the ADX is below 15.
This ensures you only receive alerts when there is sufficient momentum to sustain a move.
3. Dynamic Risk Management (ATR) The script uses the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate Stop Loss and Take Profit levels that adapt to the specific asset's volatility.
Stop Loss: Placed at 1.5x ATR from the entry. (Tight enough to preserve capital, wide enough to survive standard market noise).
Take Profit: Placed at 2.0x ATR from the entry. (Provides a healthy 1:1.3 Risk/Reward ratio).
🚀 Key Features
Universal Dashboard: A bottom-right panel displays the live Trend Status, Entry Price, Stop Loss, and Take Profit. It automatically formats decimals for any asset (e.g., 2 decimals for Gold, 5 for Forex, 8 for Crypto).
"Sticky" Memory: The dashboard retains the prices of the last valid signal, allowing you to manage your trade even after the signal candle closes.
Trend Cloud: A visual Green/Red zone between the EMAs helps you instantly identify the market bias.
Unified Alerts: A single alert setup ("Any alert() function call") sends the Asset Name, Entry, SL, and TP directly to your phone.
🛠️ How to Use
Timeframe: Set your chart to 15 Minutes (15m).
Wait for the Signal: Look for the "BUY" (Green) or "SELL" (Red) label on the chart.
Check the Dashboard: Ensure the "STATUS" is BULLISH (for buys) or BEARISH (for sells). If the status says "WAIT", do not trade.
Execute: Enter the trade using the exact Stop Loss and Take Profit levels shown on the dashboard.

Simple FVG - All GapsUser Guide: Trading with the Simple Fair Value Gap (FVG) Indicator
This document explains how to use the "Simple FVG" indicator to identify market inefficiencies and potential trading opportunities. This tool focuses exclusively on the concept of Fair Value Gaps (FVG) to provide clear, objective levels for entry and price targets.
The core function of this indicator is to visually highlight areas of market inefficiency—Fair Value Gaps—which often act as magnets for future price action, providing clear zones for potential trade entries.
Part 1: Understanding Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
A Fair Value Gap (FVG) is a three-candle pattern where the high of the first candle and the low of the third candle (or vice-versa) do not overlap. This gap represents an area where price moved quickly, indicating a potential imbalance between buyers and sellers.
Bullish FVG: These gaps are colored Green (default). They occur when the current low is higher than the high of the candle two bars prior.
Interpretation: Bullish FVGs act as potential support . Traders look for price to return to this zone to enter a long (buy) trade.
Bearish FVG: These gaps are colored Red (default). They occur when the current high is lower than the low of the candle two bars prior.
Interpretation: Bearish FVGs act as potential resistance . Traders look for price to return to this zone to enter a short (sell) trade.
Max FVG History: The indicator can display up to 500 of the most recent FVGs on your chart, ensuring you are focused on relevant, recent market structure.
Part 2: Mitigation and Gap Management
FVGs are considered "mitigated" when price re-enters the gap, effectively filling the market inefficiency. The indicator allows you to customize how this mitigation is defined.
Mitigation Type: This setting determines the condition under which an FVG is considered filled and changes color (or is hidden). You can select one of three options:
Touch: The FVG is mitigated when price simply touches the boundary of the gap.
Mid: The FVG is mitigated when price fills 50% of the gap (the default setting).
Full: The FVG is mitigated when price completely fills the entire gap.
Mitigated FVG Display: You can choose whether to display mitigated FVGs.
Show Mitigated FVG: If enabled, mitigated gaps will change color to Gray (default).
Hide Mitigated FVG: If disabled, the gap will disappear from the chart once the mitigation condition is met.
Part 3: Visual Extension Settings
The indicator allows you to control how long the FVG box is drawn on the chart.
Extension Type:
Indefinite: The FVG box will extend to the right until it is mitigated.
Fixed Bars: The FVG box will only extend for a set number of bars, defined by the Extension Bars setting. Note: Even if the visual box disappears, the FVG is still considered active until it is mitigated.
Extension Bars: Sets the number of bars (default is 5) for the visual extension when Fixed Bars is selected.
Trading Strategy Flow with FVG
Identify: Look for a fresh, unmitigated Bullish (Green) or Bearish (Red) FVG.
Wait for Return: Wait for the price to return to the FVG zone.
Execute Trade:
For a Long Trade: Enter when price touches the FVG (ideally at the Mid level) and shows a rejection or reversal pattern.
For a Short Trade: Enter when price touches the FVG (ideally at the Mid level) and shows a rejection or reversal pattern.
Set Stop-Loss: Place your Stop-Loss just outside the FVG zone, or beyond the distal end of the gap.
Set Take-Profit: Target the next major market structure point or the next unmitigated FVG in the direction of your trade.
Disclaimer: Trading involves risk. This indicator is a tool for analysis and does not guarantee profits. Always use proper risk management.
Bifurcation Zone - CAEBifurcation Zone — Cognitive Adversarial Engine (BZ-CAE)
Bifurcation Zone — CAE (BZ-CAE) is a next-generation divergence detection system enhanced by a Cognitive Adversarial Engine that evaluates both sides of every potential trade before presenting signals. Unlike traditional divergence indicators that show every price-oscillator disagreement regardless of context, BZ-CAE applies comprehensive market-state intelligence to identify only the divergences that occur in favorable conditions with genuine probability edges.
The system identifies structural bifurcation points — critical junctures where price and momentum disagree, signaling potential reversals or continuations — then validates these opportunities through five interconnected intelligence layers: Trend Conviction Scoring , Directional Momentum Alignment , Multi-Factor Exhaustion Modeling , Adversarial Validation , and Confidence Scoring . The result is a selective, context-aware signal system that filters noise and highlights high-probability setups.
This is not a "buy the arrow" indicator. It's a decision support framework that teaches you how to read market state, evaluate divergence quality, and make informed trading decisions based on quantified intelligence rather than hope.
What Sets BZ-CAE Apart: Technical Architecture
The Problem With Traditional Divergence Indicators
Most divergence indicators operate on a simple rule: if price makes a higher high and RSI makes a lower high, show a bearish signal. If price makes a lower low and RSI makes a higher low, show a bullish signal. This creates several critical problems:
Context Blindness : They show counter-trend signals in powerful trends that rarely reverse, leading to repeated losses as you fade momentum.
Signal Spam : Every minor price-oscillator disagreement generates an alert, overwhelming you with low-quality setups and creating analysis paralysis.
No Quality Ranking : All signals are treated identically. A marginal divergence in choppy conditions receives the same visual treatment as a high-conviction setup at a major exhaustion point.
Single-Sided Evaluation : They ask "Is this a good long?" without checking if the short case is overwhelmingly stronger, leading you into obvious bad trades.
Static Configuration : You manually choose RSI 14 or Stochastic 14 and hope it works, with no systematic way to validate if that's optimal for your instrument.
BZ-CAE's Solution: Cognitive Adversarial Intelligence
BZ-CAE solves these problems through an integrated five-layer intelligence architecture:
1. Trend Conviction Score (TCS) — 0 to 1 Scale
Most indicators check if ADX is above 25 to determine "trending" conditions. This binary approach misses nuance. TCS is a weighted composite metric:
Formula : 0.35 × normalize(ADX, 10, 35) + 0.35 × structural_strength + 0.30 × htf_alignment
Structural Strength : 10-bar SMA of consecutive directional bars. Captures persistence — are bulls or bears consistently winning?
HTF Alignment : Multi-timeframe EMA stacking (20/50/100/200). When all EMAs align in the same direction, you're in institutional trend territory.
Purpose : Quantifies how "locked in" the trend is. When TCS exceeds your threshold (default 0.80), the system knows to avoid counter-trend trades unless other factors override.
Interpretation :
TCS > 0.85: Very strong trend — counter-trading is extremely high risk
TCS 0.70-0.85: Strong trend — favor continuation, require exhaustion for reversals
TCS 0.50-0.70: Moderate trend — context matters, both directions viable
TCS < 0.50: Weak/choppy — reversals more viable, range-bound conditions
2. Directional Momentum Alignment (DMA) — ATR-Normalized
Formula : (EMA21 - EMA55) / ATR14
This isn't just "price above EMA" — it's a regime-aware momentum gauge. The same $100 price movement reads completely differently in high-volatility crypto versus low-volatility forex. By normalizing with ATR, DMA adapts its interpretation to current market conditions.
Purpose : Quantifies the directional "force" behind current price action. Positive = bullish push, negative = bearish push. Magnitude = strength.
Interpretation :
DMA > 0.7: Strong bullish momentum — bearish divergences risky
DMA 0.3 to 0.7: Moderate bullish bias
DMA -0.3 to 0.3: Balanced/choppy conditions
DMA -0.7 to -0.3: Moderate bearish bias
DMA < -0.7: Strong bearish momentum — bullish divergences risky
3. Multi-Factor Exhaustion Modeling — 0 to 1 Probability
Single-metric exhaustion detection (like "RSI > 80") misses complex market states. BZ-CAE aggregates five independent exhaustion signals:
Volume Spikes : Current volume versus 50-bar average
2.5x average: 0.25 weight
2.0x average: 0.15 weight
1.5x average: 0.10 weight
Divergence Present : The fact that a divergence exists contributes 0.30 weight — structural momentum disagreement is itself an exhaustion signal.
RSI Extremes : Captures oscillator climax zones
RSI > 80 or < 20: 0.25 weight
RSI > 75 or < 25: 0.15 weight
Pin Bar Detection : Identifies rejection candles (2:1 wick-to-body ratio, indicating failed breakout attempts): 0.15 weight
Extended Runs : Consecutive bars above/below EMA20 without pullback
30+ bars: 0.15 weight (market hasn't paused to consolidate)
Total exhaustion score is the sum of all applicable weights, capped at 1.0.
Purpose : Detects when strong trends become vulnerable to reversal. High exhaustion can override trend filters, allowing counter-trend trades at genuine turning points that basic indicators would miss.
Interpretation :
Exhaustion > 0.75: High probability of climax — yellow background shading alerts you visually
Exhaustion 0.50-0.75: Moderate overextension — watch for confirmation
Exhaustion < 0.50: Fresh move — trend can continue, counter-trend trades higher risk
4. Adversarial Validation — Game Theory Applied to Trading
This is BZ-CAE's signature innovation. Before approving any signal, the engine quantifies BOTH sides of the trade simultaneously:
For Bullish Divergences , it calculates:
Bull Case Score (0-1+) :
Distance below EMA20 (pullback quality): up to 0.25
Bullish EMA alignment (close > EMA20 > EMA50): 0.25
Oversold RSI (< 40): 0.25
Volume confirmation (> 1.2x average): 0.25
Bear Case Score (0-1+) :
Price below EMA50 (structural weakness): 0.30
Very oversold RSI (< 30, indicating knife-catching): 0.20
Differential = Bull Case - Bear Case
If differential < -0.10 (default threshold), the bear case is dominating — signal is BLOCKED or ANNOTATED.
For Bearish Divergences , the logic inverts (Bear Case vs Bull Case).
Purpose : Prevents trades where you're fighting obvious strength in the opposite direction. This is institutional-grade risk management — don't just evaluate your trade, evaluate the counter-trade simultaneously.
Why This Matters : You might see a bullish divergence at a local low, but if price is deeply below major support EMAs with strong bearish momentum, you're catching a falling knife. The adversarial check catches this and blocks the signal.
5. Confidence Scoring — 0 to 1 Quality Assessment
Every signal that passes initial filters receives a comprehensive quality score:
Formula :
0.30 × normalize(TCS) // Trend context
+ 0.25 × normalize(|DMA|) // Momentum magnitude
+ 0.20 × pullback_quality // Entry distance from EMA20
+ 0.15 × state_quality // ADX + alignment + structure
+ 0.10 × divergence_strength // Slope separation magnitude
+ adversarial_bonus (0-0.30) // Your side's advantage
Purpose : Ranks setup quality for filtering and position sizing decisions. You can set a minimum confidence threshold (default 0.35) to ensure only quality setups reach your chart.
Interpretation :
Confidence > 0.70: Premium setup — consider increased position size
Confidence 0.50-0.70: Good quality — standard size
Confidence 0.35-0.50: Acceptable — reduced size or skip if conservative
Confidence < 0.35: Marginal — blocked in Filtering mode, annotated in Advisory mode
CAE Operating Modes: Learning vs Enforcement
Off : Disables all CAE logic. Raw divergence pipeline only. Use for baseline comparison.
Advisory : Shows ALL signals regardless of CAE evaluation, but annotates signals that WOULD be blocked with specific warnings (e.g., "Bull: strong downtrend (TCS=0.87)" or "Adversarial bearish"). This is your learning mode — see CAE's decision logic in action without missing educational opportunities.
Filtering : Actively blocks low-quality signals. Only setups that pass all enabled gates (Trend Filter, Adversarial Validation, Confidence Gating) reach your chart. This is your live trading mode — trust the system to enforce discipline.
CAE Filter Gates: Three-Layer Protection
When CAE is enabled, signals must pass through three independent gates (each can be toggled on/off):
Gate 1: Strong Trend Filter
If TCS ≥ tcs_threshold (default 0.80)
And signal is counter-trend (bullish in downtrend or bearish in uptrend)
And exhaustion < exhaustion_required (default 0.50)
Then: BLOCK signal
Logic: Don't fade strong trends unless the move is clearly overextended
Gate 2: Adversarial Validation
Calculate both bull case and bear case scores
If opposing case dominates by more than adv_threshold (default 0.10)
Then: BLOCK signal
Logic: Avoid trades where you're fighting obvious strength in the opposite direction
Gate 3: Confidence Gating
Calculate composite confidence score (0-1)
If confidence < min_confidence (default 0.35)
Then: In Filtering mode, BLOCK signal; in Advisory mode, ANNOTATE with warning
Logic: Only take setups with minimum quality threshold
All three gates work together. A signal must pass ALL enabled gates to fire.
Visual Intelligence System
Bifurcation Zones (Supply/Demand Blocks)
When a divergence signal fires, BZ-CAE draws a semi-transparent box extending 15 bars forward from the signal pivot:
Demand Zones (Bullish) : Theme-colored box (cyan in Cyberpunk, blue in Professional, etc.) labeled "Demand" — marks where smart money likely placed buy orders as price diverged at the low.
Supply Zones (Bearish) : Theme-colored box (magenta in Cyberpunk, orange in Professional) labeled "Supply" — marks where smart money likely placed sell orders as price diverged at the high.
Theory : Divergences represent institutional disagreement with the crowd. The crowd pushed price to an extreme (new high or low), but momentum (oscillator) is waning, indicating smart money is taking the opposite side. These zones mark order placement areas that become future support/resistance.
Use Cases :
Exit targets: Take profit when price returns to opposite-side zone
Re-entry levels: If price returns to your entry zone, consider adding
Stop placement: Place stops just beyond your zone (below demand, above supply)
Auto-Cleanup : System keeps the last 20 zones to prevent chart clutter.
Adversarial Bar Coloring — Real-Time Market Debate Heatmap
Each bar is colored based on the Bull Case vs Bear Case differential:
Strong Bull Advantage (diff > 0.3): Full theme bull color (e.g., cyan)
Moderate Bull Advantage (diff > 0.1): 50% transparency bull
Neutral (diff -0.1 to 0.1): Gray/neutral theme
Moderate Bear Advantage (diff < -0.1): 50% transparency bear
Strong Bear Advantage (diff < -0.3): Full theme bear color (e.g., magenta)
This creates a real-time visual heatmap showing which side is "winning" the market debate. When bars flip from cyan to magenta (or vice versa), you're witnessing a shift in adversarial advantage — a leading indicator of potential momentum changes.
Exhaustion Shading
When exhaustion score exceeds 0.75, the chart background displays a semi-transparent yellow highlight. This immediate visual warning alerts you that the current move is at high risk of reversal, even if trend indicators remain strong.
Visual Themes — Six Aesthetic Options
Cyberpunk : Cyan/Magenta/Yellow — High contrast, neon aesthetic, excellent for dark-themed trading environments
Professional : Blue/Orange/Green — Corporate color palette, suitable for presentations and professional documentation
Ocean : Teal/Red/Cyan — Aquatic palette, calming for extended monitoring sessions
Fire : Orange/Red/Coral — Warm aggressive colors, high energy
Matrix : Green/Red/Lime — Code aesthetic, homage to classic hacker visuals
Monochrome : White/Gray — Minimal distraction, maximum focus on price action
All visual elements (signal markers, zones, bar colors, dashboard) adapt to your selected theme.
Divergence Engine — Core Detection System
What Are Divergences?
Divergences occur when price action and momentum indicators disagree, creating structural tension that often resolves in a change of direction:
Regular Divergence (Reversal Signal) :
Bearish Regular : Price makes higher high, oscillator makes lower high → Potential trend reversal down
Bullish Regular : Price makes lower low, oscillator makes higher low → Potential trend reversal up
Hidden Divergence (Continuation Signal) :
Bearish Hidden : Price makes lower high, oscillator makes higher high → Downtrend continuation
Bullish Hidden : Price makes higher low, oscillator makes lower low → Uptrend continuation
Both types can be enabled/disabled independently in settings.
Pivot Detection Methods
BZ-CAE uses symmetric pivot detection with separate lookback and lookforward periods (default 5/5):
Pivot High : Bar where high > all highs within lookback range AND high > all highs within lookforward range
Pivot Low : Bar where low < all lows within lookback range AND low < all lows within lookforward range
This ensures structural validity — the pivot must be a clear local extreme, not just a minor wiggle.
Divergence Validation Requirements
For a divergence to be confirmed, it must satisfy:
Slope Disagreement : Price slope and oscillator slope must move in opposite directions (for regular divs) or same direction with inverted highs/lows (for hidden divs)
Minimum Slope Change : |osc_slope| > min_slope_change / 100 (default 1.0) — filters weak, marginal divergences
Maximum Lookback Range : Pivots must be within max_lookback bars (default 60) — prevents ancient, irrelevant divergences
ATR-Normalized Strength : Divergence strength = min(|price_slope| × |osc_slope| × 10, 1.0) — quantifies the magnitude of disagreement in volatility context
Regular divergences receive 1.0× weight; hidden divergences receive 0.8× weight (slightly less reliable historically).
Oscillator Options — Five Professional Indicators
RSI (Relative Strength Index) : Classic overbought/oversold momentum indicator. Best for: General purpose divergence detection across all instruments.
Stochastic : Range-bound %K momentum comparing close to high-low range. Best for: Mean reversion strategies and range-bound markets.
CCI (Commodity Channel Index) : Measures deviation from statistical mean, auto-normalized to 0-100 scale. Best for: Cyclical instruments and commodities.
MFI (Money Flow Index) : Volume-weighted RSI incorporating money flow. Best for: Volume-driven markets like stocks and crypto.
Williams %R : Inverse stochastic looking back over period, auto-adjusted to 0-100. Best for: Reversal detection at extremes.
Each oscillator has adjustable length (2-200, default 14) and smoothing (1-20, default 1). You also set overbought (50-100, default 70) and oversold (0-50, default 30) thresholds.
Signal Timing Modes — Understanding Repainting
BZ-CAE offers two timing policies with complete transparency about repainting behavior:
Realtime (1-bar, peak-anchored)
How It Works :
Detects peaks 1 bar ago using pattern: high > high AND high > high
Signal prints on the NEXT bar after peak detection (bar_index)
Visual marker anchors to the actual PEAK bar (bar_index - 1, offset -1)
Signal locks in when bar CONFIRMS (closes)
Repainting Behavior :
On the FORMING bar (before close), the peak condition may change as new prices arrive
Once bar CLOSES (barstate.isconfirmed), signal is locked permanently
This is preview/early warning behavior by design
Best For :
Active monitoring and immediate alerts
Learning the system (seeing signals develop in real-time)
Responsive entry if you're watching the chart live
Confirmed (lookforward)
How It Works :
Uses Pine Script's built-in ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() functions
Requires full pivot validation period (lookback + lookforward bars)
Signal prints pivot_lookforward bars after the actual peak (default 5-bar delay)
Visual marker anchors to the actual peak bar (offset -pivot_lookforward)
No Repainting Behavior
Best For :
Backtesting and historical analysis
Conservative entries requiring full confirmation
Automated trading systems
Swing trading with larger timeframes
Tradeoff :
Delayed entry by pivot_lookforward bars (typically 5 bars)
On a 5-minute chart, this is a 25-minute delay
On a 4-hour chart, this is a 20-hour delay
Recommendation : Use Confirmed for backtesting to verify system performance honestly. Use Realtime for live monitoring only if you're actively watching the chart and understand pre-confirmation repainting behavior.
Signal Spacing System — Anti-Spam Architecture
Even after CAE filtering, raw divergences can cluster. The spacing system enforces separation:
Three Independent Filters
1. Min Bars Between ANY Signals (default 12):
Prevents rapid-fire clustering across both directions
If last signal (bull or bear) was within N bars, block new signal
Ensures breathing room between all setups
2. Min Bars Between SAME-SIDE Signals (default 24, optional enforcement):
Prevents bull-bull or bear-bear spam
Separate tracking for bullish and bearish signal timelines
Toggle enforcement on/off
3. Min ATR Distance From Last Signal (default 0, optional):
Requires price to move N × ATR from last signal location
Ensures meaningful price movement between setups
0 = disabled, 0.5-2.0 = typical range for enabled
All three filters work independently. A signal must pass ALL enabled filters to proceed.
Practical Guidance :
Scalping (1-5m) : Any 6-10, Same-side 12-20, ATR 0-0.5
Day Trading (15m-1H) : Any 12, Same-side 24, ATR 0-1.0
Swing Trading (4H-D) : Any 20-30, Same-side 40-60, ATR 1.0-2.0

Last Signal Metrics Section (New Feature)
When a signal fires, this section captures and displays:
Signal type (BULL or BEAR)
Bars elapsed since signal
Confidence % at time of signal
TCS value at signal time
DMA value at signal time
Purpose : Provides a historical reference for learning. You can see what the market state looked like when the last signal fired, helping you correlate outcomes with conditions.
Statistics Section
Total Signals : Lifetime count across session
Blocked Signals : Count and percentage (filter effectiveness metric)
Bull Signals : Total bullish divergences
Bear Signals : Total bearish divergences
Purpose : System health monitoring. If blocked % is very high (>60%), filters may be too strict. If very low (<10%), filters may be too loose.
Advisory Annotations
When CAE Mode = Advisory, this section displays warnings for signals that would be blocked in Filtering mode:
Examples:
"Bull spacing: wait 8 bars"
"Bear: strong uptrend (TCS=0.87)"
"Adversarial bearish"
"Low confidence 32%"
Multiple warnings can stack, separated by " | ". This teaches you CAE's decision logic transparently.
How to Use BZ-CAE — Complete Workflow
Phase 1: Initial Setup (First Session)
Apply BZ-CAE to your chart
Select your preferred Visual Theme (Cyberpunk recommended for visibility)
Set Signal Timing to "Confirmed (lookforward)" for learning
Choose your Oscillator Type (RSI recommended for general use, length 14)
Set Overbought/Oversold to 70/30 (standard)
Enable both Regular Divergence and Hidden Divergence
Set Pivot Lookback/Lookforward to 5/5 (balanced structure)
Enable CAE Intelligence
Set CAE Mode to "Advisory" (learning mode)
Enable all three CAE filters: Strong Trend Filter , Adversarial Validation , Confidence Gating
Enable Show Dashboard , position Top Right, size Normal
Enable Draw Bifurcation Zones and Adversarial Bar Coloring
Phase 2: Learning Period (Weeks 1-2)
Goal : Understand how CAE evaluates market state and filters signals.
Activities :
Watch the dashboard during signals :
Note TCS values when counter-trend signals fail — this teaches you the trend strength threshold for your instrument
Observe exhaustion patterns at actual turning points — learn when overextension truly matters
Study adversarial differential at signal times — see when opposing cases dominate
Review blocked signals (orange X-crosses):
In Advisory mode, you see everything — signals that would pass AND signals that would be blocked
Check the advisory annotations to understand why CAE would block
Track outcomes: Were the blocks correct? Did those signals fail?
Use Last Signal Metrics :
After each signal, check the dashboard capture of confidence, TCS, and DMA
Journal these values alongside trade outcomes
Identify patterns: Do confidence >0.70 signals work better? Does your instrument respect TCS >0.85?
Understand your instrument's "personality" :
Trending instruments (indices, major forex) may need TCS threshold 0.85-0.90
Choppy instruments (low-cap stocks, exotic pairs) may work best with TCS 0.70-0.75
High-volatility instruments (crypto) may need wider spacing
Low-volatility instruments may need tighter spacing
Phase 3: Calibration (Weeks 3-4)
Goal : Optimize settings for your specific instrument, timeframe, and style.
Calibration Checklist :
Min Confidence Threshold :
Review confidence distribution in your signal journal
Identify the confidence level below which signals consistently fail
Set min_confidence slightly above that level
Day trading : 0.35-0.45
Swing trading : 0.40-0.55
Scalping : 0.30-0.40
TCS Threshold :
Find the TCS level where counter-trend signals consistently get stopped out
Set tcs_threshold at or slightly below that level
Trending instruments : 0.85-0.90
Mixed instruments : 0.80-0.85
Choppy instruments : 0.75-0.80
Exhaustion Override Level :
Identify exhaustion readings that marked genuine reversals
Set exhaustion_required just below the average
Typical range : 0.45-0.55
Adversarial Threshold :
Default 0.10 works for most instruments
If you find CAE is too conservative (blocking good trades), raise to 0.15-0.20
If signals are still getting caught in opposing momentum, lower to 0.07-0.09
Spacing Parameters :
Count bars between quality signals in your journal
Set min bars ANY to ~60% of that average
Set min bars SAME-SIDE to ~120% of that average
Scalping : Any 6-10, Same 12-20
Day trading : Any 12, Same 24
Swing : Any 20-30, Same 40-60
Oscillator Selection :
Try different oscillators for 1-2 weeks each
Track win rate and average winner/loser by oscillator type
RSI : Best for general use, clear OB/OS
Stochastic : Best for range-bound, mean reversion
MFI : Best for volume-driven markets
CCI : Best for cyclical instruments
Williams %R : Best for reversal detection
Phase 4: Live Deployment
Goal : Disciplined execution with proven, calibrated system.
Settings Changes :
Switch CAE Mode from Advisory to Filtering
System now actively blocks low-quality signals
Only setups passing all gates reach your chart
Keep Signal Timing on Confirmed for conservative entries
OR switch to Realtime if you're actively monitoring and want faster entries (accept pre-confirmation repaint risk)
Use your calibrated thresholds from Phase 3
Enable high-confidence alerts: "⭐ High Confidence Bullish/Bearish" (>0.70)
Trading Discipline Rules :
Respect Blocked Signals :
If CAE blocks a trade you wanted to take, TRUST THE SYSTEM
Don't manually override — if you consistently disagree, return to Phase 2/3 calibration
The block exists because market state failed intelligence checks
Confidence-Based Position Sizing :
Confidence >0.70: Standard or increased size (e.g., 1.5-2.0% risk)
Confidence 0.50-0.70: Standard size (e.g., 1.0% risk)
Confidence 0.35-0.50: Reduced size (e.g., 0.5% risk) or skip if conservative
TCS-Based Management :
High TCS + counter-trend signal: Use tight stops, quick exits (you're fading momentum)
Low TCS + reversal signal: Use wider stops, trail aggressively (genuine reversal potential)
Exhaustion Awareness :
Exhaustion >0.75 (yellow shading): Market is overextended, reversal risk is elevated — consider early exit or tighter trailing stops even on winning trades
Exhaustion <0.30: Continuation bias — hold for larger move, wide trailing stops
Adversarial Context :
Strong differential against you (e.g., bullish signal with bear diff <-0.2): Use very tight stops, consider skipping
Strong differential with you (e.g., bullish signal with bull diff >0.2): Trail aggressively, this is your tailwind
Practical Settings by Timeframe & Style
Scalping (1-5 Minute Charts)
Objective : High frequency, tight stops, quick reversals in fast-moving markets.
Oscillator :
Type: RSI or Stochastic (fast response to quick moves)
Length: 9-11 (more responsive than standard 14)
Smoothing: 1 (no lag)
OB/OS: 65/35 (looser thresholds ensure frequent crossings in fast conditions)
Divergence :
Pivot Lookback/Lookforward: 3/3 (tight structure, catch small swings)
Max Lookback: 40-50 bars (recent structure only)
Min Slope Change: 0.8-1.0 (don't be overly strict)
CAE :
Mode: Advisory first (learn), then Filtering
Min Confidence: 0.30-0.35 (lower bar for speed, accept more signals)
TCS Threshold: 0.70-0.75 (allow more counter-trend opportunities)
Exhaustion Required: 0.45-0.50 (moderate override)
Strong Trend Filter: ON (still respect major intraday trends)
Adversarial: ON (critical for scalping protection — catches bad entries quickly)
Spacing :
Min Bars ANY: 6-10 (fast pace, many setups)
Min Bars SAME-SIDE: 12-20 (prevent clustering)
Min ATR Distance: 0 or 0.5 (loose)
Timing : Realtime (speed over precision, but understand repaint risk)
Visuals :
Signal Size: Tiny (chart clarity in busy conditions)
Show Zones: Optional (can clutter on low timeframes)
Bar Coloring: ON (helps read momentum shifts quickly)
Dashboard: Small size (corner reference, not main focus)
Key Consideration : Scalping generates noise. Even with CAE, expect lower win rate (45-55%) but aim for favorable R:R (2:1 or better). Size conservatively.
Day Trading (15-Minute to 1-Hour Charts)
Objective : Balance quality and frequency. Standard divergence trading approach.
Oscillator :
Type: RSI or MFI (proven reliability, volume confirmation with MFI)
Length: 14 (industry standard, well-studied)
Smoothing: 1-2
OB/OS: 70/30 (classic levels)
Divergence :
Pivot Lookback/Lookforward: 5/5 (balanced structure)
Max Lookback: 60 bars
Min Slope Change: 1.0 (standard strictness)
CAE :
Mode: Filtering (enforce discipline from the start after brief Advisory learning)
Min Confidence: 0.35-0.45 (quality filter without being too restrictive)
TCS Threshold: 0.80-0.85 (respect strong trends)
Exhaustion Required: 0.50 (balanced override threshold)
Strong Trend Filter: ON
Adversarial: ON
Confidence Gating: ON (all three filters active)
Spacing :
Min Bars ANY: 12 (breathing room between all setups)
Min Bars SAME-SIDE: 24 (prevent bull/bear clusters)
Min ATR Distance: 0-1.0 (optional refinement, typically 0.5-1.0)
Timing : Confirmed (1-bar delay for reliability, no repainting)
Visuals :
Signal Size: Tiny or Small
Show Zones: ON (useful reference for exits/re-entries)
Bar Coloring: ON (context awareness)
Dashboard: Normal size (full visibility)
Key Consideration : This is the "sweet spot" timeframe for BZ-CAE. Market structure is clear, CAE has sufficient data, and signal frequency is manageable. Expect 55-65% win rate with proper execution.
Swing Trading (4-Hour to Daily Charts)
Objective : Quality over quantity. High conviction only. Larger stops and targets.
Oscillator :
Type: RSI or CCI (robust on higher timeframes, smooth longer waves)
Length: 14-21 (capture larger momentum swings)
Smoothing: 1-3
OB/OS: 70/30 or 75/25 (strict extremes)
Divergence :
Pivot Lookback/Lookforward: 5/5 or 7/7 (structural purity, major swings only)
Max Lookback: 80-100 bars (broader historical context)
Min Slope Change: 1.2-1.5 (require strong, undeniable divergence)
CAE :
Mode: Filtering (strict enforcement, premium setups only)
Min Confidence: 0.40-0.55 (high bar for entry)
TCS Threshold: 0.85-0.95 (very strong trend protection — don't fade established HTF trends)
Exhaustion Required: 0.50-0.60 (higher bar for override — only extreme exhaustion justifies counter-trend)
Strong Trend Filter: ON (critical on HTF)
Adversarial: ON (avoid obvious bad trades)
Confidence Gating: ON (quality gate essential)
Spacing :
Min Bars ANY: 20-30 (substantial separation)
Min Bars SAME-SIDE: 40-60 (significant breathing room)
Min ATR Distance: 1.0-2.0 (require meaningful price movement)
Timing : Confirmed (purity over speed, zero repaint for swing accuracy)
Visuals :
Signal Size: Small or Normal (clear markers on zoomed-out view)
Show Zones: ON (important HTF levels)
Bar Coloring: ON (long-term trend awareness)
Dashboard: Normal or Large (comprehensive analysis)
Key Consideration : Swing signals are rare but powerful. Expect 2-5 signals per month per instrument. Win rate should be 60-70%+ due to stringent filtering. Position size can be larger given confidence.
Dashboard Interpretation Reference
TCS (Trend Conviction Score) States
0.00-0.50: Weak/Choppy
Emoji: 〰️
Color: Green/cyan
Meaning: No established trend. Range-bound or consolidating. Both reversal and continuation signals viable.
Action: Reversals (regular divs) are safer. Use wider profit targets (market has room to move). Consider mean reversion strategies.
0.50-0.75: Moderate Trend
Emoji: 📊
Color: Yellow/neutral
Meaning: Developing trend but not locked in. Context matters significantly.
Action: Check DMA and exhaustion. If DMA confirms trend and exhaustion is low, favor continuation (hidden divs). If exhaustion is high, reversals are viable.
0.75-0.85: Strong Trend
Emoji: 🔥
Color: Orange/warning
Meaning: Well-established trend with persistence. Counter-trend is high risk.
Action: Require exhaustion >0.50 for counter-trend entries. Favor continuation signals. Use tight stops on counter-trend attempts.
0.85-1.00: Very Strong Trend
Emoji: 🔥🔥
Color: Red/danger (if counter-trading)
Meaning: Locked-in institutional trend. Extremely high risk to fade.
Action: Avoid counter-trend unless exhaustion >0.75 (yellow shading). Focus exclusively on continuation opportunities. Momentum is king here.
DMA (Directional Momentum Alignment) Zones
-2.0 to -1.0: Strong Bearish Momentum
Emoji: 🐻🐻
Color: Dark red
Meaning: Powerful downside force. Sellers are in control.
Action: Bullish divergences are counter-momentum (high risk). Bearish divergences are with-momentum (lower risk). Size down on longs.
-0.5 to 0.5: Neutral/Balanced
Emoji: ⚖️
Color: Gray/neutral
Meaning: No strong directional bias. Choppy or consolidating.
Action: Both directions have similar probability. Focus on confidence score and adversarial differential for edge.
1.0 to 2.0: Strong Bullish Momentum
Emoji: 🐂🐂
Color: Bright green/cyan
Meaning: Powerful upside force. Buyers are in control.
Action: Bearish divergences are counter-momentum (high risk). Bullish divergences are with-momentum (lower risk). Size down on shorts.
Exhaustion States
0.00-0.50: Fresh Move
Emoji: ✓
Color: Green
Meaning: Trend is healthy, not overextended. Room to run.
Action: Counter-trend trades are premature. Favor continuation. Hold winners for larger moves. Avoid early exits.
0.50-0.75: Mature Move
Emoji: 🟡
Color: Yellow
Meaning: Move is aging. Watch for signs of climax.
Action: Tighten trailing stops on winning trades. Be ready for reversals. Don't add to positions aggressively.
0.75-0.85: High Exhaustion
Emoji: ⚠️
Color: Orange
Background: Yellow shading appears
Meaning: Move is overextended. Reversal risk elevated significantly.
Action: Counter-trend reversals are higher probability. Consider early exits on with-trend positions. Size up on reversal divergences (if CAE allows).
0.85-1.00: Critical Exhaustion
Emoji: ⚠️⚠️
Color: Red
Background: Yellow shading intensifies
Meaning: Climax conditions. Reversal imminent or underway.
Action: Aggressive reversal trades justified. Exit all with-trend positions. This is where major turns occur.
Confidence Score Tiers
0.00-0.30: Low Quality
Color: Red
Status: Blocked in Filtering mode
Action: Skip entirely. Setup lacks fundamental quality across multiple factors.
0.30-0.50: Moderate Quality
Color: Yellow/orange
Status: Marginal — passes in Filtering only if >min_confidence
Action: Reduced position size (0.5-0.75% risk). Tight stops. Conservative profit targets. Skip if you're selective.
0.50-0.70: High Quality
Color: Green/cyan
Status: Good setup across most quality factors
Action: Standard position size (1.0-1.5% risk). Normal stops and targets. This is your bread-and-butter trade.
0.70-1.00: Premium Quality
Color: Bright green/gold
Status: Exceptional setup — all factors aligned
Visual: Double confidence ring appears
Action: Consider increased position size (1.5-2.0% risk, maximum). Wider stops. Larger targets. High probability of success. These are rare — capitalize when they appear.
Adversarial Differential Interpretation
Bull Differential > 0.3 :
Visual: Strong cyan/green bar colors
Meaning: Bull case strongly dominates. Buyers have clear advantage.
Action: Bullish divergences favored (with-advantage). Bearish divergences face headwind (reduce size or skip). Momentum is bullish.
Bull Differential 0.1 to 0.3 :
Visual: Moderate cyan/green transparency
Meaning: Moderate bull advantage. Buyers have edge but not overwhelming.
Action: Both directions viable. Slight bias toward longs.
Differential -0.1 to 0.1 :
Visual: Gray/neutral bars
Meaning: Balanced debate. No clear advantage either side.
Action: Rely on other factors (confidence, TCS, exhaustion) for direction. Adversarial is neutral.
Bear Differential -0.3 to -0.1 :
Visual: Moderate red/magenta transparency
Meaning: Moderate bear advantage. Sellers have edge but not overwhelming.
Action: Both directions viable. Slight bias toward shorts.
Bear Differential < -0.3 :
Visual: Strong red/magenta bar colors
Meaning: Bear case strongly dominates. Sellers have clear advantage.
Action: Bearish divergences favored (with-advantage). Bullish divergences face headwind (reduce size or skip). Momentum is bearish.
Last Signal Metrics — Post-Trade Analysis
After a signal fires, dashboard captures:
Type : BULL or BEAR
Bars Ago : How long since signal (updates every bar)
Confidence : What was the quality score at signal time
TCS : What was trend conviction at signal time
DMA : What was momentum alignment at signal time
Use Case : Post-trade journaling and learning.
Example: "BULL signal 12 bars ago. Confidence: 68%, TCS: 0.42, DMA: -0.85"
Analysis : This was a bullish reversal (regular div) with good confidence, weak trend (TCS), but strong bearish momentum (DMA). The bet was that momentum would reverse — a counter-momentum play requiring exhaustion confirmation. Check if exhaustion was high at that time to justify the entry.
Track patterns:
Do your best trades have confidence >0.65?
Do low-TCS signals (<0.50) work better for you?
Are you more successful with-momentum (DMA aligned with signal) or counter-momentum?
Troubleshooting Guide
Problem: No Signals Appearing
Symptoms : Chart loads, dashboard shows metrics, but no divergence signals fire.
Diagnosis Checklist :
Check dashboard oscillator value : Is it crossing OB/OS levels (70/30)? If oscillator stays in 40-60 range constantly, it can't reach extremes needed for divergence detection.
Are pivots forming? : Look for local swing highs/lows on your chart. If price is in tight consolidation, pivots may not meet lookback/lookforward requirements.
Is spacing too tight? : Check "Last Signal" metrics — how many bars since last signal? If <12 and your min_bars_ANY is 12, spacing filter is blocking.
Is CAE blocking everything? : Check dashboard Statistics section — what's the blocked signal count? High blocks indicate overly strict filters.
Solutions :
Loosen OB/OS Temporarily :
Try 65/35 to verify divergence detection works
If signals appear, the issue was threshold strictness
Gradually tighten back to 67/33, then 70/30 as appropriate
Lower Min Confidence :
Try 0.25-0.30 (diagnostic level)
If signals appear, filter was too strict
Raise gradually to find sweet spot (0.35-0.45 typical)
Disable Strong Trend Filter Temporarily :
Turn off in CAE settings
If signals appear, TCS threshold was blocking everything
Re-enable and lower TCS_threshold to 0.70-0.75
Reduce Min Slope Change :
Try 0.7-0.8 (from default 1.0)
Allows weaker divergences through
Helpful on low-volatility instruments
Widen Spacing :
Set min_bars_ANY to 6-8
Set min_bars_SAME_SIDE to 12-16
Reduces time between allowed signals
Check Timing Mode :
If using Confirmed, remember there's a pivot_lookforward delay (5+ bars)
Switch to Realtime temporarily to verify system is working
Realtime has no delay but repaints
Verify Oscillator Settings :
Length 14 is standard but might not fit all instruments
Try length 9-11 for faster response
Try length 18-21 for slower, smoother response
Problem: Too Many Signals (Signal Spam)
Symptoms : Dashboard shows 50+ signals in Statistics, confidence scores mostly <0.40, signals clustering close together.
Solutions :
Raise Min Confidence :
Try 0.40-0.50 (quality filter)
Blocks bottom-tier setups
Targets top 50-60% of divergences only
Tighten OB/OS :
Use 70/30 or 75/25
Requires more extreme oscillator readings
Reduces false divergences in mid-range
Increase Min Slope Change :
Try 1.2-1.5 (from default 1.0)
Requires stronger, more obvious divergences
Filters marginal slope disagreements
Raise TCS Threshold :
Try 0.85-0.90 (from default 0.80)
Stricter trend filter blocks more counter-trend attempts
Favors only strongest trend alignment
Enable ALL CAE Gates :
Turn on Trend Filter + Adversarial + Confidence
Triple-layer protection
Blocks aggressively — expect 20-40% reduction in signals
Widen Spacing :
min_bars_ANY: 15-20 (from 12)
min_bars_SAME_SIDE: 30-40 (from 24)
Creates substantial breathing room
Switch to Confirmed Timing :
Removes realtime preview noise
Ensures full pivot validation
5-bar delay filters many false starts
Problem: Signals in Strong Trends Get Stopped Out
Symptoms : You take a bullish divergence in a downtrend (or bearish in uptrend), and it immediately fails. Dashboard showed high TCS at the time.
Analysis : This is INTENDED behavior — CAE is protecting you from low-probability counter-trend trades.
Understanding :
Check Last Signal Metrics in dashboard — what was TCS when signal fired?
If TCS was >0.85 and signal was counter-trend, CAE correctly identified it as high risk
Strong trends rarely reverse cleanly without major exhaustion
Your losses here are the system working as designed (blocking bad odds)
If You Want to Override (Not Recommended) :
Lower TCS_threshold to 0.70-0.75 (allows more counter-trend)
Lower exhaustion_required to 0.40 (easier override)
Disable Strong Trend Filter entirely (very risky)
Better Approach :
TRUST THE FILTER — it's preventing costly mistakes
Wait for exhaustion >0.75 (yellow shading) before counter-trending strong TCS
Focus on continuation signals (hidden divs) in high-TCS environments
Use Advisory mode to see what CAE is blocking and learn from outcomes
Problem: Adversarial Blocking Seems Wrong
Symptoms : You see a divergence that "looks good" visually, but CAE blocks with "Adversarial bearish/bullish" warning.
Diagnosis :
Check dashboard Bull Case and Bear Case scores at that moment
Look at Differential value
Check adversarial bar colors — was there strong coloring against your intended direction?
Understanding :
Adversarial catches "obvious" opposing momentum that's easy to miss
Example: Bullish divergence at a local low, BUT price is deeply below EMA50, bearish momentum is strong, and RSI shows knife-catching conditions
Bull Case might be 0.20 while Bear Case is 0.55
Differential = -0.35, far beyond threshold
Block is CORRECT — you'd be fighting overwhelming opposing flow
If You Disagree Consistently
Review blocked signals on chart — scroll back and check outcomes
Did those blocked signals actually work, or did they fail as adversarial predicted?
Raise adv_threshold to 0.15-0.20 (more permissive, allows closer battles)
Disable Adversarial Validation temporarily (diagnostic) to isolate its effect
Use Advisory mode to learn adversarial patterns over 50-100 signals
Remember : Adversarial is conservative BY DESIGN. It prevents "obvious" bad trades where you're fighting strong strength the other way.
Problem: Dashboard Not Showing or Incomplete
Solutions :
Toggle "Show Dashboard" to ON in settings
Try different dashboard sizes (Small/Normal/Large)
Try different positions (Top Left/Right, Bottom Left/Right) — might be off-screen
Some sections require CAE Enable = ON (Cognitive Engine section won't appear if CAE is disabled)
Statistics section requires at least 1 lifetime signal to populate
Check that visual theme is set (dashboard colors adapt to theme)
Problem: Performance Lag, Chart Freezing
Symptoms : Chart loading is slow, indicator calculations cause delays, pinch-to-zoom lags.
Diagnosis : Visual features are computationally expensive, especially adversarial bar coloring (recalculates every bar).
Solutions (In Order of Impact) :
Disable Adversarial Bar Coloring (MOST EXPENSIVE):
Turn OFF "Adversarial Bar Coloring" in settings
This is the single biggest performance drain
Immediate improvement
Reduce Vertical Lines :
Lower "Keep last N vertical lines" to 20-30
Or set to 0 to disable entirely
Moderate improvement
Disable Bifurcation Zones :
Turn OFF "Draw Bifurcation Zones"
Reduces box drawing calculations
Moderate improvement
Set Dashboard Size to Small :
Smaller dashboard = fewer cells = less rendering
Minor improvement
Use Shorter Max Lookback :
Reduce max_lookback to 40-50 (from 60+)
Fewer bars to scan for divergences
Minor improvement
Disable Exhaustion Shading :
Turn OFF "Show Market State"
Removes background coloring calculations
Minor improvement
Extreme Performance Mode :
Disable ALL visual enhancements
Keep only triangle markers
Dashboard Small or OFF
Use Minimal theme if available
Problem: Realtime Signals Repainting
Symptoms : You see a signal appear, but on next bar it disappears or moves.
Explanation :
Realtime mode detects peaks 1 bar ago: high > high AND high > high
On the FORMING bar (before close), this condition can change as new prices arrive
Example: At 10:05, high (10:04 bar) was 100, current high is 99 → peak detected
At 10:05:30, new high of 101 arrives → peak condition breaks → signal disappears
At 10:06 (bar close), final high is 101 → no peak at 10:04 anymore → signal gone permanently
This is expected behavior for realtime responsiveness. You get preview/early warning, but it's not locked until bar confirms.
Solutions :
Use Confirmed Timing :
Switch to "Confirmed (lookforward)" mode
ZERO repainting — pivot must be fully validated
5-bar delay (pivot_lookforward)
What you see in history is exactly what would have appeared live
Accept Realtime Repaint as Tradeoff :
Keep Realtime mode for speed and alerts
Understand that pre-confirmation signals may vanish
Only trade signals that CONFIRM at bar close (check barstate.isconfirmed)
Use for live monitoring, NOT for backtesting
Trade Only After Confirmation :
In Realtime mode, wait 1 full bar after signal appears before entering
If signal survives that bar close, it's locked
This adds 1-bar delay but removes repaint risk
Recommendation : Use Confirmed for backtesting and conservative trading. Use Realtime only for active monitoring with full understanding of preview behavior.
Risk Management Integration
BZ-CAE is a signal generation system, not a complete trading strategy. You must integrate proper risk management:
Position Sizing by Confidence
Confidence 0.70-1.00 (Premium) :
Risk: 1.5-2.0% of account (MAXIMUM)
Reasoning: High-quality setup across all factors
Still cap at 2% — even premium setups can fail
Confidence 0.50-0.70 (High Quality) :
Risk: 1.0-1.5% of account
Reasoning: Standard good setup
Your bread-and-butter risk level
Confidence 0.35-0.50 (Moderate Quality) :
Risk: 0.5-1.0% of account
Reasoning: Marginal setup, passes minimum threshold
Reduce size or skip if you're selective
Confidence <0.35 (Low Quality) :
Risk: 0% (blocked in Filtering mode)
Reasoning: Insufficient quality factors
System protects you by not showing these
Stop Placement Strategies
For Reversal Signals (Regular Divergences) :
Place stop beyond the divergence pivot plus buffer
Bullish : Stop below the divergence low - 1.0-1.5 × ATR
Bearish : Stop above the divergence high + 1.0-1.5 × ATR
Reasoning: If price breaks the pivot, divergence structure is invalidated
For Continuation Signals (Hidden Divergences) :
Place stop beyond recent swing in opposite direction
Bullish continuation : Stop below recent swing low (not the divergence pivot itself)
Bearish continuation : Stop above recent swing high
Reasoning: You're trading with trend, allow more breathing room
ATR-Based Stops :
1.5-2.0 × ATR is standard
Scale by timeframe:
Scalping (1-5m): 1.0-1.5 × ATR (tight)
Day trading (15m-1H): 1.5-2.0 × ATR (balanced)
Swing (4H-D): 2.0-3.0 × ATR (wide)
Never Use Fixed Dollar/Pip Stops :
Markets have different volatility
50-pip stop on EUR/USD ≠ 50-pip stop on GBP/JPY
Always normalize by ATR or pivot structure
Profit Targets and Scaling
Primary Target :
2-3 × ATR from entry (minimum 2:1 reward-risk)
Example : Entry at 100, ATR = 2, stop at 97 (1.5 × ATR) → target at 106 (3 × ATR) = 2:1 R:R
Scaling Out Strategy :
Take 50% off at 1.5 × ATR (secure partial profit)
Move stop to breakeven
Trail remaining 50% with 1.0 × ATR trailing stop
Let winners run if trend persists
Targets by Confidence :
High Confidence (>0.70) : Aggressive targets (3-4 × ATR), trail wider (1.5 × ATR)
Standard Confidence (0.50-0.70) : Normal targets (2-3 × ATR), standard trail (1.0 × ATR)
Low Confidence (0.35-0.50) : Conservative targets (1.5-2 × ATR), tight trail (0.75 × ATR)
Use Bifurcation Zones :
If opposite-side zone is visible on chart (from previous signal), use it as target
Example : Bullish signal at 100, prior supply zone at 110 → use 110 as target
Zones mark institutional resistance/support
Exhaustion-Based Exits :
If you're in a trade and exhaustion >0.75 develops (yellow shading), consider early exit
Market is overextended — reversal risk is high
Take profit even if target not reached
Trade Management by TCS
High TCS + Counter-Trend Trade (Risky) :
Use very tight stops (1.0-1.5 × ATR)
Conservative targets (1.5-2 × ATR)
Quick exit if trade doesn't work immediately
You're fading momentum — respect it
Low TCS + Reversal Trade (Safer) :
Use wider stops (2.0-2.5 × ATR)
Aggressive targets (3-4 × ATR)
Trail with patience
Genuine reversal potential in weak trend
High TCS + Continuation Trade (Safest) :
Standard stops (1.5-2.0 × ATR)
Very aggressive targets (4-5 × ATR)
Trail wide (1.5-2.0 × ATR)
You're with institutional momentum — let it run
Educational Value — Learning Machine Intelligence
BZ-CAE is designed as a learning platform, not just a tool:
Advisory Mode as Teacher
Most indicators are binary: signal or no signal. You don't learn WHY certain setups are better.
BZ-CAE's Advisory mode shows you EVERY potential divergence, then annotates the ones that would be blocked in Filtering mode with specific reasons:
"Bull: strong downtrend (TCS=0.87)" teaches you that TCS >0.85 makes counter-trend very risky
"Adversarial bearish" teaches you that the opposing case was dominating
"Low confidence 32%" teaches you that the setup lacked quality across multiple factors
"Bull spacing: wait 8 bars" teaches you that signals need breathing room
After 50-100 signals in Advisory mode, you internalize the CAE's decision logic. You start seeing these factors yourself BEFORE the indicator does.
Dashboard Transparency
Most "intelligent" indicators are black boxes — you don't know how they make decisions.
BZ-CAE shows you ALL metrics in real-time:
TCS tells you trend strength
DMA tells you momentum alignment
Exhaustion tells you overextension
Adversarial shows both sides of the debate
Confidence shows composite quality
You learn to interpret market state holistically, a skill applicable to ANY trading system beyond this indicator.
Divergence Quality Education
Not all divergences are equal. BZ-CAE teaches you which conditions produce high-probability setups:
Quality divergence : Regular bullish div at a low, TCS <0.50 (weak trend), exhaustion >0.75 (overextended), positive adversarial differential, confidence >0.70
Low-quality divergence : Regular bearish div at a high, TCS >0.85 (strong uptrend), exhaustion <0.30 (not overextended), negative adversarial differential, confidence <0.40
After using the system, you can evaluate divergences manually with similar intelligence.
Risk Management Discipline
Confidence-based position sizing teaches you to adjust risk based on setup quality, not emotions:
Beginners often size all trades identically
Or worse, size UP on marginal setups to "make up" for losses
BZ-CAE forces systematic sizing: premium setups get larger size, marginal setups get smaller size
This creates a probabilistic approach where your edge compounds over time.
What This Indicator Is NOT
Complete transparency about limitations and positioning:
Not a Prediction System
BZ-CAE does not predict future prices. It identifies structural divergences (price-momentum disagreements) and assesses current market state (trend, exhaustion, adversarial conditions). It tells you WHEN conditions favor a potential reversal or continuation, not WHAT WILL HAPPEN.
Markets are probabilistic. Even premium-confidence setups fail ~30-40% of the time. The system improves your probability distribution over many trades — it doesn't eliminate risk.
Not Fully Automated
This is a decision support tool, not a trading robot. You must:
Execute trades manually based on signals
Manage positions (stops, targets, trailing)
Apply discretionary judgment (news events, liquidity, context)
Integrate with your broader strategy and risk rules
The confidence scores guide position sizing, but YOU determine final risk allocation based on your account size, risk tolerance, and portfolio context.
Not Beginner-Friendly
BZ-CAE requires understanding of:
Divergence trading concepts (regular vs hidden, reversal vs continuation)
Market state interpretation (trend vs range, momentum, exhaustion)
Basic technical analysis (pivots, support/resistance, EMAs)
Risk management fundamentals (position sizing, stops, R:R)
This is designed for intermediate to advanced traders willing to invest time learning the system. If you want "buy the arrow" simplicity, this isn't the tool.
Not a Holy Grail
There is no perfect indicator. BZ-CAE filters noise and improves signal quality significantly, but:
Losing trades are inevitable (even at 70% win rate, 30% still fail)
Market conditions change rapidly (yesterday's strong trend becomes today's chop)
Black swan events occur (fundamentals override technicals)
Execution matters (slippage, fees, emotional discipline)
The system provides an EDGE, not a guarantee. Your job is to execute that edge consistently with proper risk management over hundreds of trades.
Not Financial Advice
BZ-CAE is an educational and analytical tool. All trading decisions are your responsibility. Past performance (backtested or live) does not guarantee future results. Only risk capital you can afford to lose. Consult a licensed financial advisor for investment advice specific to your situation.
Ideal Market Conditions
Best Performance Characteristics
Liquid Instruments :
Major forex pairs (EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY)
Large-cap stocks and index ETFs (SPY, QQQ, AAPL, MSFT)
High-volume crypto (BTC, ETH)
Major commodities (Gold, Oil, Natural Gas)
Reasoning: Clean price structure, clear pivots, meaningful oscillator behavior
Trending with Consolidations :
Markets that trend for 20-40 bars, then consolidate 10-20 bars, repeat
Creates divergences at consolidation boundaries (reversals) and within trends (continuations)
Both regular and hidden divs find opportunities
5-Minute to Daily Timeframes :
Below 5m: too much noise, false pivots, CAE metrics unstable
Above daily: too few signals, edge diminishes (fundamentals dominate)
Sweet spot: 15m to 4H for most traders
Consistent Volume and Participation :
Regular trading sessions (not holidays or thin markets)
Predictable volatility patterns
Avoid instruments with sudden gaps or circuit breakers
Challenging Conditions
Extremely Low Liquidity :
Penny stocks, exotic forex pairs, low-volume crypto
Erratic pivots, unreliable oscillator readings
CAE metrics can't assess market state properly
Very Low Timeframes (1-Minute or Below) :
Dominated by market microstructure noise
Divergences are everywhere but meaningless
CAE filtering helps but still unreliable
Extended Sideways Consolidation :
100+ bars of tight range with no clear pivots
Oscillator hugs midpoint (45-55 range)

Calculation Methodology — Technical Depth
For users who want to understand the math:
Oscillator Computation
Each oscillator type calculates differently, but all normalize to 0-100:
RSI : ta.rsi(close, length) — Standard Relative Strength Index
Stochastic : ta.stoch(high, low, close, length) — %K calculation
CCI : (ta.cci(hlc3, length) + 100) / 2 — Normalized from -100/+100 to 0-100
MFI : ta.mfi(hlc3, length) — Volume-weighted RSI equivalent
Williams %R : ta.wpr(length) + 100 — Inverted stochastic adjusted to 0-100
Smoothing: If smoothing > 1, apply ta.sma(oscillator, smoothing)
Divergence Detection Algorithm
Identify Pivots :
Price high pivot: ta.pivothigh(high, lookback, lookforward)
Price low pivot: ta.pivotlow(low, lookback, lookforward)
Oscillator high pivot: ta.pivothigh(osc, lookback, lookforward)
Oscillator low pivot: ta.pivotlow(osc, lookback, lookforward)
Store Recent Pivots :
Maintain arrays of last 10 pivots with bar indices
When new pivot confirmed, unshift to array, pop oldest if >10
Scan for Slope Disagreements :
Loop through last 5 pivots
For each pair (current pivot, historical pivot):
Check if within max_lookback bars
Calculate slopes: (current - historical) / bars_between
Regular bearish: price_slope > 0, osc_slope < 0, |osc_slope| > min_threshold
Regular bullish: price_slope < 0, osc_slope > 0, |osc_slope| > min_threshold
Hidden bearish: price_slope < 0, osc_slope > 0, osc_slope > min_threshold
Hidden bullish: price_slope > 0, osc_slope < 0, |osc_slope| > min_threshold

Final Word — Philosophy of BZ-CAE
BZ-CAE is not designed to replace your judgment — it's designed to enhance it.
The indicator identifies structural inflection points (bifurcations) where price and momentum disagree. The Cognitive Engine evaluates market state to determine if this disagreement is meaningful or noise. The Adversarial model debates both sides of the trade to catch obvious bad setups. The Confidence system ranks quality so you can choose your risk appetite.
But YOU still execute. YOU still manage risk. YOU still learn from outcomes.
This is intelligence amplification, not intelligence replacement.
Use Advisory mode to learn how expert traders evaluate market state. Use Filtering mode to enforce discipline when emotions run high. Use the dashboard to develop a systematic approach to reading markets. Use confidence scores to size positions probabilistically.
The system provides an edge. Your job is to execute that edge with discipline, patience, and proper risk management over hundreds of trades.
Markets are probabilistic. No system wins every trade. But a systematic edge + disciplined execution + proper risk management compounds over time. That's the path to consistent profitability. BZ-CAE gives you the edge. The discipline and risk management are on you.

Chronos Reversal Labs - SPChronos Reversal Labs - Shadow Portfolio
Chronos Reversal Labs - Shadow Portfolio: combines reinforcement learning optimization with adaptive confluence detection through a shadow portfolio system. Unlike traditional indicator mashups that force traders to manually interpret conflicting signals, this system deploys 4 multi-armed bandit algorithms to automatically discover which of 5 specialized confluence strategies performs best in current market conditions, then validates those discoveries through parallel shadow portfolios that track virtual P&L for each strategy independently.
Core Innovation: Rather than relying on static indicator combinations, this system implements Thompson Sampling (Bayesian multi-armed bandits), contextual bandits (regime-specific learning), advanced chop zone detection (geometric pattern analysis), and historical pre-training to build a self-improving confluence detection engine. The shadow portfolio system runs 5 parallel virtual trading accounts—one per strategy—allowing the system to learn which confluence approach works best through actual position tracking with realistic exits.
Target Users: Intermediate to advanced traders seeking systematic reversal signals with mathematical rigor. Suitable for swing trading and day trading across stocks, forex, crypto, and futures on liquid instruments. Requires understanding of basic technical analysis and willingness to allow 50-100 bars for initial learning.
Why These Components Are Combined
The Fundamental Problem
No single confluence method works consistently across all market regimes. Kernel-based methods (entropy, DFA) excel during predictable phases but fail in chaos. Structure-based methods (harmonics, BOS) work during clear swings but fail in ranging conditions. Technical methods (RSI, MACD, divergence) provide reliable signals in trends but generate false signals during consolidation.
Traditional solutions force traders to either manually switch between methods (slow, error-prone) or interpret all signals simultaneously (cognitive overload). Both fail because they assume the trader knows which regime the market is in and which method works best.
The Solution: Meta-Learning Through Reinforcement Learning
This system solves the problem through automated strategy selection : Deploy 5 specialized confluence strategies designed for different market conditions, track their real-world performance through shadow portfolios, then use multi-armed bandit algorithms to automatically select the optimal strategy for the next trade.
Why Shadow Portfolios? Traditional bandit implementations use abstract "rewards." Shadow portfolios provide realistic performance measurement : Each strategy gets a virtual trading account with actual position tracking, stop-loss management, take-profit targets, and maximum holding periods. This creates risk-adjusted learning where strategies are evaluated on P&L, win rate, and drawdown—not arbitrary scores.
The Five Confluence Strategies
The system deploys 5 orthogonal strategies with different weighting schemes optimized for specific market conditions:
Strategy 1: Kernel-Dominant (Entropy/DFA focused, optimal in predictable markets)
Shannon Entropy weight × 2.5, DFA weight × 2.5
Detects low-entropy predictable patterns and DFA persistence/mean-reversion signals
Failure mode: High-entropy chaos (hedged by Technical-Dominant)
Strategy 2: Structure-Dominant (Harmonic/BOS focused, optimal in clear swing structures)
Harmonics weight × 2.5, Liquidity (S/R) weight × 2.0
Uses swing detection, break-of-structure, and support/resistance clustering
Failure mode: Range-bound markets (hedged by Balanced)
Strategy 3: Technical-Dominant (RSI/MACD/Divergence focused, optimal in established trends)
RSI weight × 2.0, MACD weight × 2.0, Trend weight × 2.0
Zero-lag RSI suite with 4 calculation methods, MACD analysis, divergence detection
Failure mode: Choppy/ranging markets (hedged by chop filter)
Strategy 4: Balanced (Equal weighting, optimal in unknown/transitional regimes)
All components weighted 1.2×
Baseline performance during regime uncertainty
Strategy 5: Regime-Adaptive (Dynamic weighting by detected market state)
Chop zones: Kernel × 2.0, Technical × 0.3
Bull/Bear trends: Trend × 1.5, DFA × 2.0
Ranging: Mean reversion × 1.5
Adapts explicitly to detected regime
Multi-Armed Bandit System: 4 Core Algorithms
What Is a Multi-Armed Bandit Problem?
Formal Definition: K arms (strategies), each with unknown reward distribution. Goal: Maximize cumulative reward while learning which arms are best. Challenge: Balance exploration (trying uncertain strategies) vs. exploitation (using known-best strategy).
Trading Application: Each confluence strategy is an "arm." After each trade, receive reward (P&L percentage). Bandits decide which strategy to trust for next signal.
The 4 Implemented Algorithms
1. Thompson Sampling (DEFAULT)
Category: Bayesian approach with probability distributions
How It Works: Model each strategy as Beta(α, β) where α = wins, β = losses. Sample from distributions, select highest sample.
Properties: Optimal regret O(K log T), automatic exploration-exploitation balance
When To Use: Best all-around choice, adaptive markets, long-term optimization
2. UCB1 (Upper Confidence Bound)
Category: Frequentist approach with confidence intervals
Formula: UCB_i = reward_mean_i + sqrt(2 × ln(total_pulls) / pulls_i)
Properties: Deterministic, interpretable, same optimal regret as Thompson
When To Use: Prefer deterministic behavior, stable markets
3. Epsilon-Greedy
Category: Simple baseline with random exploration
How It Works: With probability ε (0.15): random strategy. Else: best average reward.
Properties: Simple, fast initial learning
When To Use: Baseline comparison, short-term testing
4. Contextual Bandit
Category: Context-aware Thompson Sampling
Enhancement: Maintains separate alpha/beta for Bull/Bear/Ranging regimes
Learning: "Strategy 2: 60% win rate in Bull, 40% in Bear"
When To Use: After 100+ bars, clear regime shifts
Shadow Portfolio System
Why Shadow Portfolios?
Traditional bandits use abstract scores. Shadow portfolios provide realistic performance measurement through actual position simulation.
How It Works
Position Opening:
When strategy generates validated signal:
Opens virtual position for selected strategy
Records: entry price, direction, entry bar, RSI method
Optional: Open positions for ALL strategies simultaneously (faster learning)
Position Management (Every Bar):
Current P&L: pnl_pct = (close - entry) / entry × direction × 100
Exit if: pnl_pct <= -2.0% (stop-loss) OR pnl_pct >= +4.0% (take-profit) OR held ≥ 100 bars (time)
Position Closing:
Calculate final P&L percentage
Update strategy equity, track win rate, gross profit/loss, max drawdown
Calculate risk-adjusted reward:
text
base_reward = pnl_pct / 10.0
win_rate_bonus = (win_rate - 0.5) × 0.3
drawdown_penalty = -max_drawdown × 0.05
total_reward = sigmoid(base + bonus + penalty)
Update bandit algorithms with reward
Update RSI method bandit
Statistics Tracked Per Strategy:
Equity curve (starts at $10,000)
Win rate percentage
Max drawdown
Gross profit/loss
Current open position
This creates closed-loop learning : Strategies compete → Best performers selected → Bandits learn quality → System adapts automatically.
Historical Pre-Training System
The Problem with Live-Only Learning
Standard bandits start with zero knowledge and need 50-100 signals to stabilize. For weekly timeframe traders, this could take years.
The Solution: Historical Training
During Chart Load: System processes last 300-1000 bars (configurable) in "training mode":
Detect signals using Balanced strategy (consistent baseline)
For each signal, open virtual training positions for all 5 strategies
Track positions through historical bars using same exit logic (SL/TP/time)
Update bandit algorithms with historical outcomes
CRITICAL TRANSPARENCY: Signal detection does NOT look ahead—signals use only data available at entry bar. Exit tracking DOES look ahead (uses future bars for SL/TP), which is acceptable because:
✅ Entry decisions remain valid (no forward bias)
✅ Learning phase only (not affecting shown signals)
✅ Real-time mirrors training (identical exit logic)
Training Completion: Once chart reaches current bar, system transitions to live mode. Dashboard displays training vs. live statistics for comparison.
Benefit: System begins live trading with 100-500 historical trades worth of learning, enabling immediate intelligent strategy selection.
Advanced Chop Zone Detection Engine
The Innovation: Multi-Layer Geometric Chop Analysis
Traditional chop filters use simple volatility metrics (ATR thresholds) that can't distinguish between trending volatility (good for signals) and choppy volatility (bad for signals). This system implements three-layer geometric pattern analysis to precisely identify consolidation zones where reversal signals fail.
Layer 1: Micro-Structure Chop Detection
Method: Analyzes micro pivot points (5-bar left, 2-bar right) to detect geometric compression patterns.
Slope Analysis:
Calculates slope of pivot high trendline and pivot low trendline
Compression ratio: compression = slope_high - slope_low
Pattern Classification:
Converging slopes (compression < -0.05) → "Rising Wedge" or "Falling Wedge"
Flat slopes (|slope| < 0.05) → "Rectangle"
Parallel slopes (|compression| < 0.1) → "Channel"
Expanding slopes → "Expanding Range"
Chop Scoring:
Rectangle pattern: +15 points (highest chop)
Low average slope (<0.05): +15 points
Wedge patterns: +12 points
Flat structures: +10 points
Why This Works: Geometric patterns reveal market indecision. Rectangles and wedges create false breakouts that trap technical traders. By quantifying geometric compression, system detects these zones before signals fire.
Layer 2: Macro-Structure Chop Detection
Method: Tracks major swing highs/lows using ATR-based deviation threshold (default 2.0× ATR), projects channel boundaries forward.
Channel Position Calculation:
proj_high = last_swing_high + (swing_high_slope × bars_since)
proj_low = last_swing_low + (swing_low_slope × bars_since)
channel_width = proj_high - proj_low
position = (close - proj_low) / channel_width
Dead Zone Detection:
Middle 50% of channel (position 0.25-0.75) = low-conviction zone
Score increases as price approaches center (0.5)
Chop Scoring:
Price in dead zone: +15 points (scaled by centrality)
Narrow channel width (<3× ATR): +15 points
Channel width 3-5× ATR: +10 points
Why This Works: Price in middle of range has equal probability of moving either direction. Institutional traders avoid mid-range entries. By detecting "dead zones," system avoids low-probability setups.
Layer 3: Volume Chop Scoring
Method: Low volume indicates weak conviction—precursor to ranging behavior.
Scoring:
Volume < 0.5× average: +20 points
Volume 0.5-0.8× average: +15 points
Volume 0.8-1.0× average: +10 points
Overall Chop Intensity & Signal Filtering
Total Chop Calculation:
chop_intensity = micro_score + macro_score + (volume_score × volume_weight)
is_chop = chop_intensity >= 40
Signal Filtering (Three-Tier Approach):
1. Signal Blocking (Intensity > 70):
Extreme chop detected (e.g., tight rectangle + dead zone + low volume)
ALL signals blocked regardless of confluence
Chart displays red/orange background shading
2. Threshold Adjustment (Intensity 40-70):
Moderate chop detected
Confluence threshold increased: threshold += (chop_intensity / 50)
Only highest-quality signals pass
3. Strategy Weight Adjustment:
During Chop: Kernel-Dominant weight × 2.0 (entropy detects breakout precursors), Technical-Dominant weight × 0.3 (reduces false signals)
After Chop Exit: Weights revert to normal
Why This Three-Tier Approach Is Original: Most chop filters simply block all signals (loses breakout entries). This system adapts strategy selection during chop—allowing Kernel-Dominant (which excels at detecting low-entropy breakout precursors) to operate while suppressing Technical-Dominant (which generates false signals in consolidation). Result: System remains functional across full market regime spectrum.
Zero-Lag Filter Suite with Dynamic Volatility Scaling
Zero-Lag ADX (Trend Regime Detection)
Implementation: Applies ZLEMA to ADX components:
lag = (length - 1) / 2
zl_source = source + (source - source ) × strength
Dynamic Volatility Scaling (DVS):
Calculates volatility ratio: current_ATR / ATR_100period_avg
Adjusts ADX length dynamically: High vol → shorter length (faster), Low vol → longer length (smoother)
Regime Classification:
ADX > 25 with +DI > -DI = Bull Trend
ADX > 25 with -DI > +DI = Bear Trend
ADX < 25 = Ranging
Zero-Lag RSI Suite (4 Methods with Bandit Selection)
Method 1: Standard RSI - Traditional Wilder's RSI
Method 2: Ehlers Zero-Lag RSI
ema1 = ema(close, length)
ema2 = ema(ema1, length)
zl_close = close + (ema1 - ema2)
Method 3: ZLEMA RSI
lag = (length - 1) / 2
zl_close = close + (close - close )
Method 4: Kalman-Filtered RSI - Adaptive smoothing with process/measurement noise
RSI Method Bandit: Separate 4-arm bandit learns which calculation method produces best results. Updates independently after each trade.
Kalman Adaptive Filters
Fast Kalman: Low process noise → Responsive to genuine moves
Slow Kalman: Higher measurement noise → Filters noise
Application: Crossover logic for trend detection, acceleration analysis for momentum inflection
What Makes This Original
Innovation 1: Shadow Portfolio Validation
First TradingView script to implement parallel virtual portfolios for multi-armed bandit reward calculation. Instead of abstract scoring metrics, each strategy's performance is measured through realistic position tracking with stop-loss, take-profit, time-based exits, and risk-adjusted reward functions (P&L + win rate + drawdown). This provides orders-of-magnitude better reward signal quality for bandit learning than traditional score-based approaches.
Innovation 2: Three-Layer Geometric Chop Detection
Novel multi-scale geometric pattern analysis combining: (1) Micro-structure slope analysis with pattern classification (wedges, rectangles, channels), (2) Macro-structure channel projection with dead zone detection, (3) Volume confirmation. Unlike simple volatility filters, this system adapts strategy weights during chop —boosting Kernel-Dominant (breakout detection) while suppressing Technical-Dominant (false signal reduction)—allowing operation across full market regime spectrum without blind signal blocking.
Innovation 3: Historical Pre-Training System
Implements two-phase learning : Training phase (processes 300-1000 historical bars on chart load with proper state isolation) followed by live phase (real-time learning). Training positions tracked separately from live positions. System begins live trading with 100-500 trades worth of learned experience. Dashboard displays training vs. live performance for transparency.
Innovation 4: Contextual Multi-Armed Bandits with Regime-Specific Learning
Beyond standard bandits (global strategy quality), implements regime-specific alpha/beta parameters for Bull/Bear/Ranging contexts. System learns: "Strategy 2: 60% win rate in ranging markets, 45% in bull trends." Uses current regime's learned parameters for strategy selection, enabling regime-aware optimization.
Innovation 5: RSI Method Meta-Learning
Deploys 4 different RSI calculation methods (Standard, Ehlers ZL, ZLEMA, Kalman) with separate 4-arm bandit that learns which calculation works best. Updates RSI method bandit independently based on trade outcomes, allowing automatic adaptation to instrument characteristics.
Innovation 6: Dynamic Volatility Scaling (DVS)
Adjusts ALL lookback periods based on current ATR ratio vs. 100-period average. High volatility → shorter lengths (faster response). Low volatility → longer lengths (smoother signals). Applied system-wide to entropy, DFA, RSI, ADX, and Kalman filters for adaptive responsiveness.

Technical Approximations & Limitations
1. Thompson Sampling: Pseudo-Random Beta Distribution
Standard: Cryptographic RNG with true beta sampling
This Implementation: Box-Muller transform using market data as entropy source
Impact: Not cryptographically random but maintains exploration-exploitation balance. Sufficient for strategy selection.
2. Shadow Portfolio: Simplified Execution Model
Standard: Order book simulation with slippage, partial fills
This Implementation: Perfect fills at close price, no fees modeled
Impact: Real-world performance ~0.1-0.3% worse per trade due to execution costs.
3. Historical Training: Forward-Looking for Exits Only
Entry signals: Use only past data (causal, no bias)
Exit tracking: Uses future bars to determine SL/TP (forward-looking)
Impact: Acceptable because: (1) Entry logic remains valid, (2) Live trading mirrors training, (3) Improves learning quality. Training win rates reflect 8-bar evaluation window—live performance may differ if positions held longer.
4. Shannon Entropy & DFA: Simplified Calculations
Impact: 10-15% precision loss vs. academic implementations. Still captures predictability and persistence signals effectively.
General Limitations
No Predictive Guarantee: Past performance ≠ future results
Learning Period Required: Minimum 50-100 bars for stable statistics
Overfitting Risk: May not generalize to unprecedented conditions
Single-Instrument: No multi-asset correlation or sector context
Execution Assumptions: Degrades in illiquid markets (<100k volume), major news events, flash crashes
Risk Warnings & Disclaimers
No Guarantee of Profit: All trading involves substantial risk of loss. This indicator is a tool, not a guaranteed profit system.
System Failures: Software bugs possible despite testing. Use appropriate position sizing.
Market Regime Changes: Performance may degrade during extreme volatility (VIX >40), low liquidity periods, or fundamental regime shifts.
Broker-Specific Issues: Real-world execution includes slippage (0.1-0.5%), commissions, overnight financing costs, partial fills.
Forward-Looking Bias in Training: Historical training uses 8-bar forward window for exit evaluation. Dashboard "Training Win%" reflects this method. Real-time performance may differ.

📊 WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES
This indicator combines multiple standard technical analysis methods into a unified system for analyzing market structure, momentum, volume dynamics, and key price levels. Rather than adding 10 separate indicators to your chart, this consolidates related information into one cohesive interface where each component informs the others.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🔧 TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY - HOW IT WORKS
1️⃣ MOMENTUM CANDLE COLORING (6 Levels)
Calculation Method:
- Compares close vs EMA(9) and EMA(21)
- Applies RSI(14) thresholds for strength
- Color codes: Royal Blue (strongest bull) → Cyan → Green → Yellow → Orange → Red (strongest bear) → White (neutral)
Formula Logic:
IF close > EMA(9) AND close > EMA(21) AND close > open:
RSI > 70 = Level 3 Bull (Royal Blue)
RSI 60-70 = Level 2 Bull (Cyan)
RSI < 60 = Level 1 Bull (Green)
Purpose: Visualizes momentum strength by combining trend (EMAs), candle direction, and overbought/oversold conditions (RSI).
2️⃣ ENTRY SIGNAL LABELS
Calculation Method:
- Uses EMA alignment: EMA(9) > EMA(21) > EMA(50) for bullish
- Filters RSI to avoid extremes
- Requires confirming candle
BUY Signal Logic:
IF close > EMA(9) AND RSI between 40-70 AND EMA(9) > EMA(21) > EMA(50) AND close > open
THEN: Display "BUY" label
Purpose: Identifies potential entries when multiple trend and momentum conditions align. This is standard multi-confirmation technical analysis.
3️⃣ VOLUME DELTA PERCENTAGE
Calculation Method:
FOR each bar in lookback period (default 20):
IF close > open: add volume to bullish_volume
IF close < open: add volume to bearish_volume
bullish_percent = (bullish_volume / total_volume) × 100
Purpose: Quantifies buying vs selling pressure as percentages. Shows if volume supports the current trend.
Display: "🟢65.3% | 🔴34.7%" in dashboard
4️⃣ PRE-MARKET HIGH/LOW TRACKING
Calculation Method:
1. Detect pre-market session (4:00-9:30 AM ET)
2. Track highest high during pre-market
3. Track lowest low during pre-market
4. Draw horizontal lines when market opens
Purpose: Pre-market levels often act as support/resistance during regular hours. This automates their tracking and visualization.
5️⃣ OPENING RANGE BREAKOUT (ORB)
Calculation Method:
1. User sets start time (default 9:30 AM) and duration (default 15 min)
2. Track highest high and lowest low during this period
3. Draw box and extend lines
Purpose: The opening range breakout is a well-documented day trading strategy. First X minutes establish a range, and breakouts often signal directional moves.
6️⃣ SUPPORT/RESISTANCE TRENDLINES
Calculation Method:
1. Identify pivot highs: ta.pivothigh(high, 5, 5)
2. Identify pivot lows: ta.pivotlow(low, 5, 5)
3. Connect last two pivot highs = Resistance (red)
4. Connect last two pivot lows = Support (blue)
Purpose: Automatically connects significant pivot points. Based on standard pivot analysis where price respects these levels.
7️⃣ GAMMA ZONE DETECTION
Calculation Method:
1. Calculate 30-min range: (high - low)
2. Calculate 10-period SMA of range
3. Calculate ratio: current_range / average_range
IF ratio < (1.0 / sensitivity): HIGH GAMMA = Low volatility
IF ratio > (1.0 × sensitivity): LOW GAMMA = High volatility
Purpose: Approximates options gamma effects. High gamma = dealers hedge more = suppressed volatility. Low gamma = less hedging = potential explosive moves.
8️⃣ TAKE PROFIT LEVELS (5 Levels + ATR Stop Loss)
Calculation Method:
LONG: TP = entry_price × (1 + percentage/100)
SHORT: TP = entry_price × (1 - percentage/100)
Stop Loss (ATR): entry ± (ATR(14) × multiplier)
Purpose: Automatically calculates percentage-based targets and volatility-adjusted stops. ATR adapts stop to current market conditions.
9️⃣ THE STRAT PATTERN RECOGNITION
Calculation Method:
Compare current bar to previous:
- Strat 3 (outside bar): high > high AND low < low
- Strat 1 (inside bar): high ≤ high AND low ≥ low
- Strat 2 (directional): All others
Purpose: The Strat is a price action system categorizing bars by relationship to previous bars. This automates classification.
🔟 FIBONACCI RETRACEMENTS
Calculation Method:
1. Find highest high in lookback (default 30 bars)
2. Find lowest low in lookback
3. Calculate: 0.0, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 1.0 levels
Purpose: Standard Fibonacci tool. These ratios are commonly used support/resistance in technical analysis.
1️⃣1️⃣ MULTI-TIMEFRAME ANALYSIS
Calculation Method:
FOR each timeframe (default 15m, 1H, 4H):
Check if close > EMA(9) on that timeframe
IF true: "BULLISH", else: "BEARISH"
Purpose: Shows trend alignment across timeframes using Pine's request.security(). Common confirmation technique.

💡 WHY THESE COMPONENTS WORK TOGETHER
This indicator's originality lies in its unified system approach:
1. TREND IDENTIFICATION (EMAs, MTF) - Shows direction
2. MOMENTUM MEASUREMENT (RSI, candles) - Shows strength
3. VOLUME CONFIRMATION (Volume Delta) - Shows conviction
4. KEY LEVELS (PM, ORB, Fib, S/R) - Shows decision points
5. RISK MANAGEMENT (TP levels, ATR stops) - Shows exits
VALUE OF INTEGRATION:
Rather than 10 separate indicators creating chart clutter, this consolidates related concepts where each component provides different information that, when viewed together, gives a more complete market picture.
Example Integration:
- Entry signal appears (EMA + RSI aligned)
- Volume Delta confirms (more buying than selling)
- MTF shows higher timeframes agree
- TP levels auto-calculate with good risk:reward
- Support trendline nearby provides stop reference
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
