Key Intraday Range Analysis - K.I.R.A. The KIRA Indicator is a unique tool designed to provide traders with actionable insights by identifying and analyzing key intraday price ranges. Built upon a specialized methodology, it uses Fibonacci-derived levels anchored to significant opening ranges to generate trading levels for the day. Unlike other indicators that focus on broader trend analysis, KIRA’s approach provides precision, simplicity, and adaptability for intraday traders.
How It Works
KIRA takes the first 30-second range of the European market open and calculates Fibonacci projections derived solely from the golden ratio. These projections form potential areas of interest, such as support and resistance levels, that guide traders in their decision-making process.
By visualizing these levels directly on the chart, KIRA simplifies intraday trading, helping traders identify key reaction zones with high clarity.
Key Features:
-Clean and Readable Output: Generates easily identifiable levels directly on a clear chart to reduce visual clutter.
-Dynamic and Adaptive: Works across various assets, including indices, forex, and commodities, while maintaining reliability on lower timeframes.
How to Use
1. Set Up: Ensure your chart timeframe is aligned with intraday trading, ideally 1-minute or 5-minute intervals.
2. Monitor Levels: Observe how price reacts to the projected levels generated from the opening range.
3. Strategize: Use these levels as potential entries, exits, or areas to tighten risk management, depending on price action.
Unlike conventional indicators that reuse public domain methodologies or classic technical analysis tools, KIRA is based on a nuanced approach to anchoring Fibonacci projections. Its uniqueness lies in its precise application of golden ratio derivatives, specifically tailored to intraday price movements.
The chart accompanying this script provides a clean visualization of the KIRA levels applied to a 1-minute chart of . All outputs are directly from the KIRA script to ensure clarity and ease of use.

FxCanli RangeFxCanli Range is an indicator based on ICT Internal Range and External Range concept.
What is ICT Internal Range Liquidity?
The Fair Value Gap is marked as the ICT internal range liquidity.
ICT Fair Value Gap is marked as the liquidity because it is a formation of three candles leaving an area between high and low of 1st and 3rd candle where price do not overlap.
FxCanli Range Indicator draws all Internal Ranges above explaining the ICT internal range liquidity.
What is Imbalance (FVG)?
Fair Value Gaps are price jumps caused by imbalanced buying and selling pressures.
A bullish Fair Value Gap is created when there is a gap between the high of the first candle and the low of the third candle.
A bearish Fair Value Gap is created when there is a gap between the low of the first candle and the high of the third candle.
What is ICT External Range Liquidity?
The swing high and swing low of an ICT dealing range are termed as external range.
The high of an ICT dealing range is termed as “buy side liquidity” assuming the buy stops rest above the high of dealing range.
While the low of an ICT dealing range is known as “sell side liquidity” assuming the sell stops resting below the low of dealing range.
FxCanli Range Indicator draws all External Ranges above explaining the ICT external range liquidity
🔶 USAGE & EXAMPLES
As ICT said us, Price moves 2 side, Internal Liquidity or External Liquidity
External Range Liquidity to Internal Range Liquidity
When price reached to External Range, it will sweep the External Range Liquidity
at that time, we have to wait price to reverse and start to move to Internal range liquidity (FVG)
our strategy has to be like this; we have to open 2 time less lower time frame
if we are at 1 hour chart, we have to open 1Hour - 15 min - 5 min chart
and wait for Trend Reversal pattern at there
Internal Range Liquidity to External Range Liquidity
When price reached to Internal Range(FVG), it will fill the imbalance
at that time, we have to wait price to reverse and start to move to External Range Liquidity.
Again we have to decrease our time frame 2 times.
if we are at 1 hour chart, we have to open 1Hour -> 15 min -> 5 min chart
and wait for Trend Reversal pattern at there

RTH/ETH Session RangesSimple script that adds a table to the bottom left of the chart - shows the high and low of the Full Session with range, and shows the high and low of the RTH/USA session with same calculations.
This simple script enhances your charting experience by adding a comprehensive table to the bottom left corner of your trading chart. The table is designed to provide key market data at a glance, specifically focusing on the high and low metrics for different trading sessions. Here's a breakdown of what the script offers:
Features of the Script
Full Session Data:
High: The highest price point reached during the entire trading session.
Low: The lowest price point reached during the entire trading session.
Range: The difference between the high and low prices, providing insight into the session's volatility.
RTH/USA Session Data (Regular Trading Hours):
High: The highest price point reached during the RTH, typically reflecting the most active part of the trading day.
Low: The lowest price point reached during the RTH.
Range: The difference between the high and low prices during the RTH, indicating the session's intraday volatility.
How to Use the Script for Trading
Identify Key Levels:
Use the high and low points to identify significant support and resistance levels. These levels can guide your entry and exit points, helping you make informed trading decisions.
Gauge Market Volatility:
The range values for both the Full Session and RTH provide a quick snapshot of market volatility. Higher ranges suggest more significant price movements, which can inform your risk management strategies and position sizing.
Compare Sessions:
By comparing the Full Session data with the RTH data, you can identify differences in price behavior between the broader market hours and the more active trading periods. This comparison can help in understanding market dynamics and planning trades accordingly.
Unique Aspects of the Script
Ease of Access: The table's placement in the bottom left corner ensures that it is always visible without obstructing the main chart view, allowing for quick reference without disrupting your analysis.
Comprehensive Insights: By covering both the Full Session and RTH, the script provides a holistic view of the market, catering to traders who focus on different timeframes.
Customization Potential: Although simple, the script can be customized further to include additional metrics or visual tweaks to better suit individual trading strategies.
Practical Example
Imagine you're trading a particular stock and want to decide on a potential breakout strategy. By using this script, you can quickly identify the high of the Full Session as a potential breakout point. If the price approaches this level during the RTH, you can prepare to enter a trade with the confidence that this level has previously acted as a significant resistance. Conversely, knowing the low of the RTH can help you set stop-loss orders to manage risk effectively.
Expected Move BandsExpected Moves
The Expected Move of a security shows the amount that a stock is expected to rise or fall from its current market price based on its level of volatility or implied volatility. The expected move of a stock is usually measured with standard deviations.
An Expected Move Range of 1 SD shows that price will be near the 1 SD range 68% of the time given enough samples.
Expected Move Bands
This indicator gets the Expected Move for 1-4 Standard Deviation Ranges using Historical Volatility. Then it displays it on price as bands.
The Expected Move indicator also allows you to see MTF Expected Moves if you want to.
This indicator calculates the expected price movements by analyzing the historical volatility of an asset. Volatility is the measure of fluctuation.
This script uses log returns for the historical volatility calculation which can be modelled as a normal distribution most of the time meaning it is symmetrical and stationary unlike other scripts that use bands to find "reversals". They are fundamentally incorrect.
What these ranges tell you is basically the odds of the price movement being between these levels.
If you take enough samples, 95.5% of the them will be near the 2nd Standard Deviation. And so on. (The 3rd Standard deviation is 99.7%)
For higher timeframes you might need a smaller sample size.

Volumetric Toolkit [LuxAlgo]The Volumetric Toolkit is a complete and comprehensive set of tools that display price action-related analysis methods from volume data.
A total of 4 features are included within the toolkit. Symbols that do not include volume data will not be supported by the script.
🔶 USAGE
The volumetric toolkit puts a heavy focus on price action, returning support/resistance levels, ranges, volume divergences...etc.
The main premise between each feature is that volume has a direct relationship with market participants level of interest over a specific symbol, and that this interest is not constant over time.
Each individual feature is detailed below.
🔹 Ranges Of Interest
The Ranges Of Interest construct a range from a surge of high liquidity in the market. This range is constructed from the price high and price low of the candle with the associated significant liquidity.
The returned extremities can be used as support and resistance, with breakouts often being accompanied by significant liquidity as well, suggesting potential trend continuations.
The length setting associated with this feature determines how sensitive the range detection algorithm is to volume, with higher values requiring more significant volume in order to display a new range.
🔹 Impulses
Impulses highlight times when volume makes a new higher high while the price makes a new higher high or lower low, suggesting increased market participation.
When this occurs when the price makes a new higher high the impulse is considered bullish (green), if the price makes a new lower low the impulse is bearish (red).
Impulses occurring within an established trend opposite to it (e.g a bearish impulse on an uptrend) might be indicative of reversals.
The length setting works similarly to the previously described ranges of interest, with higher values requiring longer-term volume higher high and price higher high/lower low, highlighting more significant impulse and potentially longer-term reversals.
🔹 Levels Of Interest
Levels of interest display price levels of significant trading activity, contrary to the range of interest only the closing price is taken into account, also volume peaks are used to detect significant trading activity.
Note that this feature is subject to backpainting, that is lines are set retrospectively.
Users can determine the amount of most recent levels to display on the chart. These can be used as classical support/resistances.
🔹 Volume Divergence
We define volume divergence as a decreased market participation while a trend is still developing.
More precisely volume divergences are highlighted if volume makes a lower high while price is making a new higher high/lower low.
This can be indicative of a lack of further participation in the current trend, indicating a potential reversal.
Using higher length values will return longer-term divergences.
Note that this feature is subject to backpainting, that is lines are set retrospectively.

Liquidation Ranges + Volume/OI Dots [Kioseff Trading]Hello!
Introducing a multi-faceted indicator "Liquidation Ranges + Volume Dots" - this indicator replicates the volume dot tools found on various charting platforms and populates a liquidation range on crypto assets!
Features
Volume/OI dots populated according to user settings
Size of volume/OI dots corresponds to degree of abnormality
Naked level volume dots
Fixed range capabilities for volume/OI dots
Visible time range capabilities for volume/OI dots
Lower timeframe data used to discover iceberg orders (estimated using 1-minute data)
S/R lines drawn at high volume/OI areas
Liquidation ranges for crypto assets (10x - 100x)
Liquidation ranges are calculated using a popular crypto exchange's method
# of violations of liquidation ranges are recorded and presented in table
Pertinent high volume/OI price areas are recorded and presented in table
Personalized coloring for volume/OI dots
Net shorts / net long for the price range recorded
Lines shows reflecting net short & net long increases/decreases
Configurable volume/OI heatmap (displayed between liquidation ranges)
And some more (:
Liquidation Range
The liquidation range component of the indicator uses a popular crypto exchange's calculation (for liquidation ranges) to populate the chart for where 10x - 100x leverage orders are stopped out.
The image above depicts features corresponding to net shorts and net longs.
The image above shows features corresponding to liquidation zones for the underlying coin.
The image above shows the option to display volume/oi delta at the time the corresponding grid was traded at.
The image above shows an instance of using the "fixed range" feature for the script.
*The average price of the range is calculated to project liquidation zones.
*Heatmap is calculated using OI (or volume) delta.
Huge thank you to Pine Wizard @DonovanWall for his range filter code!
Price ranges are automatically detected using his calculation (:
Volume / OI Dots
Similar to other charting platforms, the volume/OI dots component of the indicator distinguishes "abnormal" changes in volume/OI; the detected price area is subsequently identified on the chart.
The detection method uses percent rank and calculates on the last bar of the chart. The "agelessness" of detection is contingent on user settings.
The image above shows volume dots in action; the size of each volume dot corresponds to the amount of volume at the price area.
Smaller dots = lower volume
Larger dots = higher volume
The image above exemplifies the highest aggression setting for volume/OI dot detection.
The table oriented top-right shows the highest volume areas (discovered on the 1-minute chart) for the calculated period.
The open interest change and corresponding price level are also shown. Results are listed in descending order but can also be listed in order of occurrence (most relevant).
Additionally, you can use the visible time range feature to detect volume dots.
The feature shows and explains how the visible range feature works. You select how many levels you want to detect and the script will detect the selected number of levels.
For instance, if I select to show 20 levels, the script will find the 20 highest volume/OI change price areas and distinguish them.
The image above shows a narrower price range.
The image above shows the same price range; however, the script is detecting the highest OI change price areas instead of volume.
* You can also set a fixed range with this feature
* Naked levels can be used
Additionally, you can select for the script to show only the highest volume/ OI change price area for each bar. When active, the script will successively identify the highest volume / OI change price area for the most recent bars.
Naked Levels
The image above shows and explains how naked levels can be detected when using the script.
And that's pretty much it!
Of course, there're a few more features you can check out when you use the script that haven't been explained here (:
Thank you again to @DonovanWall
Thank you to @Trendoscope for his binary insertion sort library (:
Thank you to @PineCoders for their time library
Thank you for checking this out!

India VIX Based Nifty/BankNifty Range Calculator (Auto Fetch)VIX-Based Expected Daily Range (Auto Volatility Forecast)
Created by: Harshiv Symposium
📖 Purpose
This indicator automatically fetches the India VIX value and calculates the expected daily price range for major Indian indices such as Nifty and BankNifty.
It helps traders understand how much the market is likely to move today based on current volatility conditions.
Designed for educational and analytical awareness, not for signals or profit-making systems.
⚙️ Core Logic
Expected Daily Move (Range) = (India VIX × Current Index Price) ÷ Multiplier
- Multiplier for Nifty: 1000
- Multiplier for BankNifty: 700
This calculation projects the 1-standard-deviation (≈ 68% probability) and 2-standard-deviation (≈ 95% probability) movement zones for the day.
📊 Example
If India VIX = 15 and Nifty = 25,000:
Expected Move ≈ (15 × 25,000) ÷ 1000 = 375 points
Hence,
- 68% Range: 24,625 – 25,375
- 95% Range: 24,250 – 25,750
This gives traders a realistic idea of daily volatility boundaries.
🧭 Key Features
✅ Auto-Fetch India VIX
No need for manual input — automatically pulls live data from NSE:INDIAVIX.
✅ Dynamic Range Visualization
Plots upper/lower boundaries for 1σ and 2σ probability zones with shaded expected-move area.
✅ Dashboard Panel
Displays:
- Current VIX
- Expected Move (in points and %)
- Upper and Lower Ranges
✅ Smart Alerts
Alerts when price crosses upper or lower volatility range — potential breakout signal.
🎯 How It Helps
Intraday Traders:
Know the likely daily movement (e.g., ±220 pts on Nifty) and plan realistic targets or stops.
Options Traders:
Quickly assess whether it’s a seller-friendly (low VIX, small range) or buyer-friendly (high VIX, large range) session.
Risk Managers:
Use volatility context for stop-loss width and position sizing.
Breakout Traders:
If price breaks beyond the 2σ range → indicates potential volatility expansion.
💡 Interpretation Guide
Condition Market Behavior Strategy Insight
VIX ↓ ( < 14 ) Calm / Range-bound Option Selling Edge
VIX ↑ ( > 20 ) Volatile Sessions Option Buying Edge

LA - Opening Price based Previous day Range PivotThis "LA - Opening Price based Previous day Range Pivot" indicator is a custom technical analysis tool designed for Trading View charts. It plots support and resistance levels (often referred to as pivots or ranges) based on the current opening price combined with the previous period's trading range. The "previous period" can be daily, weekly, or monthly, making it a multi-timeframe tool. These levels are projected using Fibonacci-inspired multipliers to create potential breakout or reversal zones.
The core idea is inspired by concepts like the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) strategy or Fibonacci pivots, but it's customized here to use a dynamic range calculation (the maximum of several absolute price differences) rather than a simple high-low range. This makes it more robust for volatile markets. Levels are symmetric above (resistance) and below (support) the opening price, helping traders identify potential entry/exit points, stop-losses, or targets. This will be useful when there is a gap-up/down as in Nifty/Sensex .
Purpose of the Indicator:
To visualize potential support/resistance zones for the current trading session based on the opening price and historical range data. This helps traders anticipate price movements, such as breakouts above resistance or bounces off support
Use Cases:
Intraday Trading: On lower timeframes (e.g., 5-min or 15-min charts), it shows daily levels for short-term trades.
Swing Trading: On higher timeframes (e.g., hourly or daily), it displays weekly/monthly levels for longer holds.
Range Identification: The filled bands highlight "zones" where price might consolidate or reverse.
Conditional Display: Levels only appear on appropriate timeframes (e.g., daily levels on intraday charts <60min), preventing clutter.
Theoretical Basis: It builds on pivot point theory, where the opening price acts as a central pivot. Multipliers (e.g., 0.618 for Fibonacci golden ratio) project levels, assuming price often respects these ratios due to market psychology.
How Calculations Work
Let's dive into the math with examples. Assume a stock with:
Current daily open (cdo) = $100
Previous daily high (pdh) = $105, low (pdl) = $95, close (pdc) = $102, close 2 days ago (pdc2) = $98
Step 1: Dynamic Range Calculation (var_d2):
This is the max of:
|pdh - pdc2| = |105 - 98| = 7
|pdl - pdc2| = |95 - 98| = 3
|pdh - pdl| = |105 - 95| = 10 (previous day range)
|pdh - cdo| = |105 - 100| = 5
|pdl - cdo| = |95 - 100| = 5
|pdc - cdo| = |102 - 100| = 2
|pdc2 - cdo| = |98 - 100| = 2
Max = 10 (so range = 10). This ensures the range accounts for gaps and extended moves, not just high-low.
Step 2: Level Projections:
Resistance (above open): Open + (Range * Multiplier)
dre6 = 100 + (10 * 1.5) = 115
dre5 = 100 + (10 * 1.27) ≈ 112.7
... down to dre0 = 100 + (10 * 0.1) = 101
dre50 = 100 + (10 * 0.5) = 105 (midpoint)
Support (below open): Open - (Range * Multiplier)
dsu0 = 100 - (10 * 0.1) = 99
... up to dsu6 = 100 - (10 * 1.5) = 85

Pros and Cons
Pros:
Multi-Timeframe Flexibility: Seamlessly integrates daily, weekly, and monthly levels, useful for aligning short-term trades with longer trends (e.g., intraday breakout confirmed by weekly support).
Dynamic Range Calculation: Unlike standard pivots (just (H+L+C)/3), it uses max of multiple diffs, capturing gaps/volatility better—great for stocks with overnight moves.
Customizable via Inputs: Users can toggle levels, adjust multipliers, or change timeframes without editing code. Inline inputs keep the UI clean.
Visual Aids: Filled bands make zones obvious; conditional colors highlight "tight" vs. "wide" ranges (e.g., for volatility assessment).
Fibonacci Integration: Levels based on proven ratios, appealing to technical traders. Symmetric supports/resistances simplify strategy building (e.g., buy at support, sell at resistance).
No Repainting: Uses historical data with lookahead, so levels are fixed once calculated—reliable for back-testing.
Cons:
Chart Clutter: With all toggles on, 50+ plots/fills can overwhelm the chart, especially on mobile or small screens. Requires manual disabling.
Complexity for Beginners: Many inputs and calculations; without understanding fib ratios or range logic, it might confuse new users.
Performance Overhead: On low timeframes (e.g., 1-min), fetching higher TF data multiple times could lag, especially with many symbols or back-tests.
Assumes Volatility Persistence: Relies on previous range projecting future moves; in low-vol markets (e.g., sideways trends), levels may be irrelevant or too wide/narrow.
No Alerts or Signals: Purely visual; no built-in buy/sell alerts or crossover conditions—users must add separately.
Hardcoded Styles/Colors: Limited customization without code edits (e.g., can't change line styles via inputs).
Also, not optimized for non-stock assets (e.g., forex with 24/7 trading).
In summary, this is a versatile pivot tool for range-based trading based on Opening price, excelling in volatile markets but requiring some setup. If you're using it, start with defaults on a daily chart and toggle off unnecessary levels.
Multi-Symbol Volatility Tracker with Range DetectionMulti-Symbol Volatility Tracker with Range Detection
🎯 Main Purpose:
This indicator is specifically designed for scalpers to quickly identify symbols with high volatility that are currently in ranging conditions . It helps you spot the perfect opportunities for buying at lows and selling at highs repeatedly within the same trading session.
📊 Table Data Explanation:
The indicator displays a comprehensive table with 5 columns for 4 major symbols (GOLD, SILVER, NASDAQ, SP500):
SYMBOL: The trading instrument being analyzed
VOLATILITY: Color-coded volatility levels (NORMAL/HIGH/EXTREME) based on ATR values
Last Candle %: The percentage range of the most recent 5-minute candle
Last 5 Candle Avg %: Average percentage range over the last 5 candles
RANGE: Shows "YES" (blue) or "NO" (gray) indicating if the symbol is currently ranging
🔍 How to Identify Trading Opportunities:
Look for symbols that combine these characteristics:
RANGE column shows "YES" (highlighted in blue) - This means the symbol is moving sideways, perfect for range trading
VOLATILITY shows "HIGH" or "EXTREME" - Ensures there's enough movement for profitable scalping
Higher candlestick percentages - Indicates larger candle ranges, meaning more profit potential per trade
⚡ Optimal Usage:
Best Timeframe: Works optimally on 5-minute charts where the ranging patterns are most reliable for scalping
Trading Strategy: When you find a symbol with "YES" in the RANGE column, switch to that symbol and look for opportunities to buy near the lows and sell near the highs of the ranging pattern
Risk Management: Higher volatility symbols offer more profit potential but require tighter risk management
⚙️ Settings:
ATR Length: Adjusts the Average True Range calculation period (default: 14)
Range Sensitivity: Fine-tune range detection sensitivity (0.1-2.0, lower = more sensitive)
💡 Pro Tips:
The indicator updates in real-time, so monitor for symbols switching from "NO" to "YES" in the RANGE column
Combine HIGH/EXTREME volatility with RANGE: YES for the most profitable scalping setups
Use the candlestick percentages to gauge potential profit per trade - higher percentages mean more movement
The algorithm uses advanced statistical analysis including standard deviation, linear regression slopes, and range efficiency to accurately detect ranging conditions
Perfect for day traders and scalpers who want to quickly identify which symbols offer the best ranging opportunities for consistent buy-low, sell-high strategies.
Opening Range Suite by SBSniperOpening Range Suite
An all-in-one opening-range tool suite. It draws the 30-second, 5-minute, and 30-minute opening ranges for the AM session (09:30 NY). Each range is highlighted with a rectangle (high/low with midpoint) and can display a full pack of projection levels.
⸻
What it draws
• AM 09:30 ORs: 30s, 5m, 30m ranges.
• Midpoint line inside each box.
• Projections from the opening range (measured both High→Low and Low→High) at:
−0.5, −1, −1.5, −2, −2.5, −3, −3.5, −4.
• Text labels inside rectangles (fixed text):
AM — “OR 30sec / OR 5min / OR 30min”; PM — “PM 30sec / PM 5min / PM 30min”.
⸻
Smart behavior
• Today always extends to the current bar (so the current session’s box grows with price/time).
• Previous 5 days of each selected range are shown and, by default, extend to 12:00 NY for AM and 16:00 NY for PM (2.5h span).
Toggle available to extend previous 5 out to the current bar instead.
• Projection day cap: You choose how many recent days (including today) draw projection lines. This prevents chart clutter and avoids TradingView object limits.
• Weekend skip: Automatically ignores Saturdays and Sundays based on New York time.
• Single label toggle: Turn all labels on/off; styling and text are fixed for clarity and consistency.
⸻
How ranges are calculated
• The script anchors to New York local time and detects:
• AM session: 09:30 → grabs the 30s/5m/30m bar(s) that open at 09:30:00 NY.
• Each range uses the bar’s high/low, draws a rectangle spanning the selected time window, and plots the midpoint.
⸻
Notes & best practices
• The 30-second OR requires a symbol/data plan that provides 30-second bars. If your feed doesn’t have 30s, keep the 30s toggles off and use 5m/30m.
• Use on intraday charts. The tool relies on bar times to align with NY session opens.
• For non-US symbols or 24/7 markets, NY anchoring still works; just be aware that “open” is tied to 09:30 New York time.
12H Range (Body + Wicks)12H Range (Body + Wicks)
This indicator highlights the 12-hour candle ranges across any chart timeframe. Each 12H candle is split into its body and wicks, with customizable fill and border colors.

Combined Predictive Indicator### Combined Predictive Zones & Levels
This indicator is a powerful hybrid tool designed to provide a comprehensive map of potential future price action. It merges two distinct predictive models into a single, cohesive view, helping traders identify key levels of support, resistance, and areas of high confluence.
#### How It Works: Two Models in One
This script is built on two core components that you can use together or analyze separately:
**Part 1: Classic Range & Fibonacci Prediction**
This model uses classic technical analysis principles to project a potential range for the upcoming price action.
* **Highest High / Lowest Low:** It identifies the significant trading range over a user-defined lookback period.
* **Fibonacci Levels:** It automatically plots key Fibonacci retracement levels (e.g., 38.2% and 61.8%) within this range, which often act as critical support or resistance.
* **ATR & Average Range:** It calculates a "predicted" upper and lower boundary based on the average historical range and current volatility (ATR).
**Part 2: Advanced Predictive Ranges (Self-Adjusting Channels)**
This is a dynamic model that creates adaptive support and resistance zones based on a smoothed average price and volatility.
* **Dynamic Average:** It uses a unique moving average that only adjusts when the price moves significantly, creating a stable baseline.
* **ATR-Based Zones:** It projects multiple levels of support (S1, S2) and resistance (R1, R2) around this average, which widen and narrow based on market volatility. These zones often signal areas where price might stall or reverse.
#### Key Features:
* **Hybrid Model for Confluence:** The true power of this indicator lies in finding where the levels from both models overlap. A Fibonacci level aligning with a Predictive Range support zone is a much stronger signal.
* **Comprehensive Data Table:** A clean, on-chart table displays the precise values of all key predictive levels, allowing for quick reference and precise trade planning.
* **Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Capability:** The Advanced Predictive Ranges can be calculated on a higher timeframe, giving you a broader market context.
* **Fully Customizable:** All lengths, multipliers, and levels for both models are fully adjustable in the settings to fit any asset or trading style.
* **Clear Visuals:** All zones and levels are color-coded for intuitive and easy-to-read analysis.
#### How to Use:
1. Look for areas of **confluence** where multiple levels from both models cluster together. These are high-probability zones for price reactions.
2. Use the Predictive Range zones (S1/S2 and R1/R2) as potential targets for trades or as areas to watch for entries and exits.
3. Pay attention to the on-chart table for exact price levels to set limit orders or stop-losses.

Option Range Projector PRO (with Alerts)Indicator Name: Option Range Projector PRO (with Alerts)
Short Description
This is a powerful and flexible tool for traders that visualizes expected price movement ranges based on option pricing principles and statistical deviations. The indicator plots standard deviation levels (Sigmas) and boundaries calculated from the price of an options Straddle, providing a unique insight into market volatility expectations.
It is ideal for options traders, as well as those who trade futures or spot assets and want to gain an edge by understanding where the market anticipates price boundaries on a specific date.
Core Concepts
The indicator is based on three key ideas:
Standard Deviation (Sigma, σ): In statistics, this is a measure of value dispersion. In trading, when applied to prices, standard deviation levels show the probable range within which the price is expected to remain until a specific date (expiration).
±1σ (1 Sigma): Approximately 68.2% probability that the price will stay within this range.
±2σ (2 Sigmas): Approximately 95.4% probability. These levels often act as strong support/resistance.
±3σ (3 Sigmas): Approximately 99.7% probability. Reaching these levels is a statistically rare event.
Implied Volatility (IV): This is a key component. IV is the market's forecast of the asset's future volatility. It is derived from current option prices and reflects how significant the price movements are expected to be by traders. The higher the IV, the wider the calculated ranges will be.
Straddle-Based Levels: A straddle is an options strategy involving the simultaneous purchase of a Call and a Put option with the same strike price and expiration date. The cost of this combination (Call + Put) directly reflects the market's expected price movement in points. Our indicator uses this value to construct alternative, highly accurate boundaries of the expected range.
Key Features
Flexible Expiration Choice: Easily switch between standard contracts (Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly) or set any custom number of days to expiration (DTE).
Dual Volatility Calculation Mode: Use automatic calculation based on historical data or enter a precise IV value manually (e.g., from your broker's terminal) for maximum accuracy.
Two Types of Predictive Levels: Visualize classic standard deviations (Sigmas) and/or levels calculated from the Straddle price for a comprehensive analysis.
Expiration Comparison: Enable the display of additional levels for a different expiration date to visually compare short-term and long-term market expectations.
"Greeks" Calculation: The indicator calculates and displays key option Greeks (Delta, Gamma, Theta, Vega), helping to deepen the understanding of an option position's characteristics.
Informative Table: All key data—ATM price, IV, DTE, level prices, Greeks, and option prices—are consolidated into one clear table for quick analysis.
Customizable Alerts: Get instant notifications directly in TradingView when the price crosses any of the important levels (±1σ, ±2σ, ±3σ).
Full Visual Customization: Control colors, line thickness, labels, and zone fills to adapt the indicator to your trading style.
How to Use (Settings)
Price Settings:
Auto-detect ATM Price: When enabled, the indicator will use the current closing price as the At-The-Money (ATM) price.
Manual ATM Price: If auto mode is disabled, you can set a precise ATM price manually.
Volatility Settings:
Auto-calculate IV: Calculates historical volatility over a specified period. Useful if you don't have access to real-time IV.
Manual IV Value: (Recommended for accuracy). Enter the Implied Volatility (IV) value for the desired strike from your brokerage terminal or analytical services here.
Expiration:
Contract Type: Choose one of the standard terms (Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly) or "Custom" to use a manual day input.
Days to Expiration: Active only for the "Custom" type.
Show Multiple Expirations: Enables a second set of levels with a different term for comparison.
Straddle Boundaries:
Use Manual Input: Allows you to enter the precise Call and Put Settle prices from the official exchange summary (e.g., from the CME website). This provides the most accurate boundaries based on real market prices.
Trading Ideas and Application
Mean Reversion Trading: The ±2σ and ±3σ levels often act as strong overbought/oversold zones. A price reaching these extreme values has a high statistical probability of reversing or correcting back towards the central ATM price.
Trend Confirmation and Breakouts: A confident close outside the ±1σ range can indicate the beginning of a strong directional move.
Risk Management: Use the levels to set stop-losses or determine profit targets. For example, when opening a trade near the +1σ level, you might consider a target at +2σ and place a stop-loss behind the ATM level.
Volatility Analysis: By comparing the width of the ranges for different expirations, you can assess how the market is pricing short-term versus long-term risks. A narrow range suggests low expectations, while a wide range indicates high ones.

Tight Range Display with Background🌟 Tight Range Transparency Display with Background
What Is This Indicator?
Hey traders! Ever wanted a simple way to spot those quiet, low-volatility moments in the market that often signal a big move is coming? The Tight Range Transparency Display with Background does exactly that! This indicator highlights periods where the price is moving in a tight range—think of it as the calm before the storm. It paints the chart background blue to show these zones, with the shade getting darker the tighter the range becomes. It’s like having a visual cue to say, “Hey, something might be brewing here!”
Why You’ll Love It
Spot Key Moments Easily: The blue background makes it super easy to see when the market is in a tight range, which often happens before breakouts or big trends.
Customizable Settings: You can tweak the range thresholds to match your trading style—whether you’re looking for super tight zones or slightly broader ones.
Visual Clarity: The background gets darker when the range is tighter, giving you a quick sense of how compressed the price action is.
Perfect for Any Market: Works on stocks, forex, crypto, or any chart you trade, across any timeframe.
How to Use It
Add It to Your Chart:
Just copy this script into TradingView’s Pine Editor and hit "Add to Chart." It’ll overlay right on your price chart.
Tweak the Settings:
Open the indicator settings and use the dropdown menus to pick your preferred "Tight Range %" and "Wide Range %." For example, set a Tight Range % of 2.0% to catch smaller ranges, or go higher like 10.0% for broader ones.
You can also adjust the ATR Period (default is 5) to make the indicator more or less sensitive to recent price swings.
Watch for the Blue Background:
When the price enters a tight range, the chart background turns blue. The darker the blue, the tighter the range—meaning a potential breakout could be closer!
Trade Smarter:
Use these tight range zones to prepare for potential breakouts. For example, if you see a dark blue background, it might be a good time to watch for a big price move.
Pair this with other tools like support/resistance levels or volume spikes to confirm your trades.
Who Is This For?
Swing Traders: Perfect for spotting consolidation zones before a big swing.
Breakout Traders: Tight ranges often lead to breakouts—use this to time your entries.
Smart Money Followers: If you’re into smart money concepts, tight ranges can signal accumulation or distribution phases.
Beginners & Pros Alike: It’s easy to use for new traders but powerful enough for seasoned pros.
Real-World Example
Imagine you’re trading a stock on a 1-hour chart. You notice the background turns blue, and it’s getting darker over a few bars. This tells you the price range is tightening—maybe the stock is consolidating after a big move. You check your other indicators, see a volume spike, and spot a breakout above resistance. Boom! You catch the next big trend, all because this indicator helped you focus on the right moment.
Tips for Best Results
Try Different Timeframes: Tight ranges on a 15-minute chart might signal short-term moves, while a daily chart could highlight bigger trends.
Adjust for Your Market: For volatile markets like crypto, you might want a higher Tight Range % (e.g., 10.0%). For calmer markets like forex, try a lower setting (e.g., 2.0%).
Combine with Other Tools: Use this alongside trendlines, moving averages, or volume indicators to confirm your setups.
Why I Made This
I created this indicator because I wanted a simple, visual way to spot those critical low-volatility zones without cluttering my chart. The dynamic background color makes it intuitive to see when the market is “coiling up” for a potential move. I hope it helps you find better trading opportunities just like it does for me!

Normalized True Range - Grouped by WeekdaysThis indicator helps traders analyze daily volatility patterns across different days of the week by calculating normalized price ranges.
Unlike traditional volatility measures, it uses a normalized approach by dividing the daily range (high-low) by the midpoint price and multiplying by 100, providing a percentage-based measure that's comparable across different price levels. This normalization makes it particularly useful for comparing volatility patterns across different assets or time periods.
The indicator also includes a statistical overlay that highlights extreme volatility events. By calculating the 5th and 95th percentiles of the normalized ranges within your specified date range, it creates upper and lower bounds that help identify outlier days where volatility was exceptionally high or low.
These bounds appear as horizontal lines on the chart, making it easy to spot when current volatility breaks out of its historical norms.
The data is presented in both visual and tabular formats, with a comprehensive table showing the maximum, minimum, average, and 25th percentile ranges for each day of the week. This dual presentation allows traders to both quickly spot patterns visually and access detailed statistics for deeper analysis.
The user can customize the analysis period through simple date range inputs, making it flexible for different analytical timeframes.
Judas Swing ICT 01 [TradingFinder] New York Midnight Opening M15🔵 Introduction
The Judas Swing (ICT Judas Swing) is a trading strategy developed by Michael Huddleston, also known as Inner Circle Trader (ICT). This strategy allows traders to identify fake market moves designed by smart money to deceive retail traders.
By concentrating on market structure, price action patterns, and liquidity flows, traders can align their trades with institutional movements and avoid common pitfalls. It is particularly useful in FOREX and stock markets, helping traders identify optimal entry and exit points while minimizing risks from false breakouts.
In today's volatile markets, understanding how smart money manipulates price action across sessions such as Asia, London, and New York is essential for success. The ICT Judas Swing strategy helps traders avoid common pitfalls by focusing on key movements during the opening time and range of each session, identifying breakouts and false breakouts.
By utilizing various time frames and improving risk management, this strategy enables traders to make more informed decisions and take advantage of significant market movements.
In the Judas Swing strategy, for a bullish setup, the price first touches the high of the 15-minute range of New York midnight and then the low. After that, the price returns upward, breaks the high, and if there’s a candlestick confirmation during the pullback, a buy signal is generated.
bearish setup, the price first touches the low of the range, then the high. With the price returning downward and breaking the low, if there’s a candlestick confirmation during the pullback to the low, a sell signal is generated.
🔵 How to Use
To effectively implement the Judas Swing strategy (ICT Judas Swing) in trading, traders must first identify the price range of the 15-minute window following New York midnight. This range, consisting of highs and lows, sets the stage for the upcoming movements in the London and New York sessions.
🟣 Bullish Setup
For a bullish setup, the price first moves to touch the high of the range, then the low, before returning upward to break the high. Following this, a pullback occurs, and if a valid candlestick confirmation (such as a reversal pattern) is observed, a buy signal is generated. This confirmation could indicate the presence of smart money supporting the bullish movement.
🟣 Bearish Setup
For a bearish setup, the process is the reverse. The price first touches the low of the range, then the high. Afterward, the price moves downward again and breaks the low. A pullback follows to the broken low, and if a bearish candlestick confirmation is seen, a sell signal is generated. This confirmation signals the continuation of the downward price movement.
Using the Judas Swing strategy enables traders to avoid fake breakouts and focus on strong market confirmations. The strategy is versatile, applying to FOREX, stocks, and other financial instruments, offering optimal trading opportunities through market structure analysis and time frame synchronization.
To execute this strategy successfully, traders must combine it with effective risk management techniques such as setting appropriate stop losses and employing optimal risk-to-reward ratios. While the Judas Swing is a powerful tool for predicting price movements, traders should remember that no strategy is entirely risk-free. Proper capital management remains a critical element of long-term success.
By mastering the ICT Judas Swing strategy, traders can better identify entry and exit points and avoid common traps from fake market movements, ultimately improving their trading performance.
🔵 Setting
Opening Range : High and Low identification time range.
Extend : The time span of the dashed line.
Permit : Signal emission time range.
🔵 Conclusion
The Judas Swing strategy (ICT Judas Swing) is a powerful tool in technical analysis that helps traders identify fake moves and align their trades with institutional actions, reducing risk and enhancing their ability to capitalize on market opportunities.
By leveraging key levels such as range highs and lows, fake breakouts, and candlestick confirmations, traders can enter trades with more precision. This strategy is applicable in forex, stocks, and other financial markets and, with proper risk management, can lead to consistent trading success.
Twin Range Filter VisualizedVisulaized version of @colinmck's Twin Range Filter version on TradingView.
On @colinmck's Twin Range Filter version, you can only see Long and Short signals on the chart.
But in this version of TRF, users can visually see the BUY and SELL signals on the chart with an added line of TRF.
TRF is an average of two smoothed Exponential Moving Averages, fast one has 27 bars of length and the slow one has 55 bars.
The purpose is to obtain two ranges that price fluctuates between (upper and lower range) and have LONG AND SHORT SIGNALS when close price crosses above the upper range and conversely crosses below lower range.
I personally combine the upper and lower ranges on one line to see the long and short signals with my own eyes so,
-BUY when price is higher or equal to the upper range level and the indicator line turns to draw the lower range to follow the price just under the bars as a trailing stop loss indicator like SuperTrend.
-SELL when price is lower or equal to the lower range levelline under the bars and then the indicator line turns to draw the upper range to follow the price just over the bars in that same trailing stop loss logic.
There are also two coefficients that adjusts the trailing line distance levels from the price multiplying the effect of the faster and slower moving averages.
The default values of the multipliers:
Fast range multiplier of Fast Moving Average(27): 1.6
Slow range multiplier of fSlow Moving Average(55): 2
Remember that if you enlarge these multipliers you will enlarge the ranges and have less but lagging signals. Conversely, decreasing the multipliers will have small ranges (line will get closer to the price and more signals will occur)
ICT Friday's Asian Range°This concept was engineered and taught by the Inner Circle Trader .
The goal of this script is to outline a potential draw on liquidity for the next trading week. It gives a parameter for ICT PD Arrays to be located above and below the marketplace and should be used in conjunction with the higher Timeframe Arrays as defined by ICT.
If there is a higher Timeframe array with a standard deviation confluence of the Friday Asian Range it is considered high probability for price to reach up/down to that level, and present a potential retracement or reversal.
The Asian Range is defined as the window of Time between 7PM to Midnight New York Time. In this case we will be only using the Friday's Asian Range which will take place on Thursday between these Times.
We have two ranges: a Body range made of the highest and lowest candle bodies, and a Wick range made by the highest and lowest candle wicks.
ICT teaches that we only want to apply this concept to the 5minute and 15minute chart.

TrendDECODER by MetaSignalsProTrendDECODER
The fastest indicator to detect trends and price ranges
-------------------------------------------------------------------
✔️ Identify ranges and the next probable direction
✔️ Get the earliest signals and the strength of Trends
✔️ Get clear exits signals before reversal
✔️ Spot the Fibo levels the price will test
-------------------------------------------------------------------
📌 What is it about ?
--------------------------
TrendDECODER is a concentrate of multiple innovations to make Trend following simple and easy.
Please see in the 🛠️ Calculation & Precisions section at the end of this page to know more how they work.
👉 With the GreyBox - identify when the market gets out of the Trend with a new sequence of transition. Check if the market is in Range, Continuation or Reversal (Up or Down) and wait for the closing of the box to get the Trend signal.
👉 With the DecoderSignals & Blue/Orange Clouds - once the GreyBox has delivered its message, get the new direction of the Trend and see the probable zones of pull backs during the current direction.
👉 With the Projective TrendLine - see before it happens the direction and the possible angle of the Trend with its probable range.
👉 With the RealTime TrendLine vs the Projective TrendLine - adjust immediately if the market accelerates North or South.
👉 With the RealTime TrendLine Crossing - detect at the earliest the moment the Trend gets out of track, to get out of the train.
👉 With the FiboLevels - spot immediately which price levels the market will test.
📌 For which asset?
-----------------------
TrendDECODER is universal : it works fine on all assets and all time-frames;
☝️ always work on a multi-timeframe environment to minimize risk;
📌Why we made these innovations?
---------------------------------------------
Because the trend indicators that we know, lag a lot and do not clearly identify ranges!
We need much more powerful tools than Supertrend or a couple of moving averages crossings to get this done.
📌 How to trade with TrendDECODER?
----------------------------------------------
🔹 Strategy #1: Trend Following : DecoderSignals & Blue/Orange Clouds
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The GreyBOX has given the next probable movement and the Signal of a Trend in on.
The RealTime TrendLine guides us on the pace of this movement and the Blue/ Orange/Cloud figures the support/resistance of this movement.
It will be wise not to jump immediately in the Trend as the signal appears as the price will very probably make a pullback in direction of the cloud first.
🔹 Strategy #1: Checklist
📍 Set a Multi Time Frame environment
📍 Main Time Frame and the Upper Time Frame are moving in the same direction (Up or Down)
📍 Main Time Frame: appearance of the « TrendUp Signal » or the « TrendDown Signal »
📍 Entry:
☝️ buying « at Market » immediately on a « Trend Signal » is quite risky as many times the price will pull back near the Clouds
👉 a good option is to buy 1/2 the position at market on signal
👉 and 1/2 after the first pull back
📍 First Stop Loss: place your SL under the lower border of the GreyBox for an expected TrendUp or the higher border for an expected TrendDown
📍 BreakEven: when the price reaches your Risk/Reward ratio of 1 = Distance StopLoss vs Entry = Distance Current Price vs Entry
📍 Trailing Stop: just under the lowest border of the Blue Cloud (TrendUp) or the highest border of the Orange Cloud (TrendDown)
📍 TakeProfits: in a TrendUP, place your take profits just under the FibosLevels in order not to get exited (and above in a TrendDOWN)
📍 Exits:
👉 Early option : Crossing of the RealTime TrendLine
👉 Late option : Crossing of the Blue/Orange cloud
🔹 Strategy #2: Early Trend following : RealTime TrendLine Crossing
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With this simple tool, get a very early signal of a probable inversion of the current Trend, way before the Decoder Signal is shown, once confirmed by the GreyBOX.
🔹 Strategy #2: Checklist
📍 Set a Multi Time Frame environment
📍 Main Time Frame and the Upper Time Frame are moving in the same direction (Up or Down)
📍 Entry (Main Time Frame): wait for the Close crossing over the ReaTime TrendLine in an expected TrendUp (under for a TrendDown )
📍 First Stop Loss (Main Time Frame):
👉 place your SL under the lower low of the GreyBOX (for an expected TrendUp) or the higher high (for an expected TrendDown)
📍 BreakEven: move your SL to Entry price when the price reaches your Risk/Reward ratio of 1 = Distance StopLoss vs Entry = Distance Current Price vs Entry
📍 Trailing Stop: just under the lowest border of the Blue Cloud (TrendUp) or the highest border of the Orange Cloud (TrendDown)
📍 TakeProfits: in a TrendUP, place your take profits just under the FibosLevels in order not to get exited (and above in a TrendDOWN)
📍 Exits:
👉 Early option : Crossing of the RealTime TrendLine
👉 Late option : Crossing of the Blue/Orange cloud
🎛️ Configuration
---------------------
Well, basically you do not have to do anything !
But you can make TrendDECODER perfectly yours with a few switches in the configuration panel to make appear or disappear each one of the elements composing TrendDECODER.
🛠️ Calculation & Precisions
------------------------------------
🔹 Blue/Orange Clouds
The Blue/Orange Clouds are a proprietary synthesis of Price Action and Volume Exchange in real time.
🔹 Projective TrendLine
As soon as a new high or a new low has been reached during the last move, TrendDECODER traces a possible angle of the future movement based on the pace of the last one in the same direction.
The distance between the Projective TrendLine and the Last Lowest (resp. Highest) gives you a possible bottom (resp. top) of the price range.
🔹 RealTime TrendLine
As soon as the Decoder GreyBox has delivered its information i.e Range/Continuation/ReversalUp/ReversalDown and that a New High (resp. New Low) has been reached, the RealTime TrendLine starts to show the pace and the angle of the new movement based on a linear regression adanced concept.
The angles of the Projective and the RealTime TrendLine can be identical, telling you that the market moves smoothly in a global consensus. It can be a smart Trailing Stop Loss.
Or these angles can be very different and it will call your maximum attention. You might want to switch to a superior timeframe to get the bigger picture.
🔹 FiboLevels
Once a new Trend is signaled, the levels of Fibonnaci are automatically placed.
They are calculated on the last Highest and Lowest of the former movement.
XBrat Range Breakout - Defining Ranges & The Trading BiasxBrat Range Breakout
Designed to help define opening ranges of major markets, along with Gold Pit opens, Oil Pit opens and for major economic data points. We recommend timeframes for opening ranges on different type of instruments further down this description
There are 6 range data points available, 4 of which are pre-defined (but can be adjusted and renamed) and then 2 spare for those important data points. All the times and label names can be adjusted.
4 Pre-Defined Openings are:
Europe Gold Pit Open (8am Europe time)
London Stock Exchange Open (9am Europe time)
New York Gold Pit Open (8.20am EST)
NYSE Open (9.30am EST)
The range is defined by a parallel coloured cloud which changes colour depending on the BIAS of the opening range, calculated automatically for our users. At the same time the Open Tag is also coloured to help identify the BIAS and indeed which direction traders should trade the Range Breakout after the first candle has closed. The range BIAS continues to be drawn on the chart until the following days open. The colour will change as per the BIAS of that opening range. This allows for multiple entries of breakouts of the defined range throughout the following 24 hours.
Range Breakout BIAS Colours
Green - Bullish BIAS - When first candle has closed only look for breakouts to the upside
Red - Bearish BIAS - When first candle has closed only look for breakouts to the downside
Yellow - Neutral BIAS - When first candle closed, look for breakouts to both upside and downside or best not to trade the breakouts as neutral BIAS indicates indecision
Time Frames we suggest for open ranges of any market open or data points are:
Metals & Energy Futures or CFDs - 5 minute time frame
Currencies - Forex Pairs or Futures - 10 minute time frame
Index Futures or CFDs - 15 minute time frame
Key levels + Session Range (Sweep-Aware Levels)Overview
This indicator provides a single, clean view of two core intraday contexts that day traders rely on:
Daily Liquidity Levels: prior day high/low (PDH/PDL), prior day open/close, weekly highs/lows, and other commonly referenced reference points.
Session Ranges: clearly plotted high/low for each active session (e.g., Asia, London, New York), tracked live as the session evolves.
By unifying these two information layers, traders can immediately see when price is sweeping a session’s extremes into known daily liquidity—a frequent precursor to reversals or continuation moves. This saves chart space, reduces cognitive overload, and turns two separate checks into one coherent read.
What it does
Plots daily liquidity references: previous day high/low, previous day open/close, and optional higher-timeframe levels (open, high, mid and low 4H ,Day, Week, month, year and quarterly).
Tracks session high/low live: as each session unfolds, the indicator updates that session’s running High and Low, then locks them at session end.
Maps interaction between the two layers: you can instantly spot session sweeps that tag PDH/PDL (or weekly extremes), highlight potential liquidity grabs, and frame risk with objective boundaries.
Keeps the chart clean: just essential lines/zones and concise labels—no extra clutter.
Why it’s useful & original
Single-purpose integration: Rather than a generic mashup, this is a purpose-built fusion where session dynamics are read in the context of daily liquidity. That relationship is the core edge—seeing when a session sweep aligns with known liquidity pools.
Workflow efficiency: One overlay replaces two indicators, simplifying visibility and reducing conflicting visuals.
Decision clarity: The combination highlights setups many intraday traders already watch manually (e.g., NY session high sweep into PDH), but makes them obvious in real time.
How it works (plain-English logic)
Daily Liquidity Engine
At the start of each day, the indicator records PDH, PDL, prior open/close and (optionally) prior week high/low.
These levels are plotted and extended across the session as static references.
Session Range Tracker
For each defined session (e.g., Asia/London/New York), the script initializes session High/Low at session open.
Throughout the session, it updates those extremes in real time and locks them on session close.
Interaction Layer
When price reaches or sweeps a session High/Low near a daily level (e.g., within your chosen tolerance), the confluence becomes visually obvious.
Traders can then decide whether it’s a likely liquidity grab (fade/reversal idea) or a continuation through the pool (breakout idea), per their plan.
How to use it
Identify session context: Start by noting where price is trading relative to the current session’s High/Low.
Locate nearby daily liquidity: Check distance to PDH/PDL, prior open/close, and weekly extremes.
Look for confluence:
Sweep-and-fade idea: Session High swept into PDH (or Session Low into PDL) with failure to hold → potential reversal context.
Break-and-go idea: Strong close through PDH/PDL following a session extreme break → potential continuation context.
Risk framing: Session High/Low and PDH/PDL provide objective anchors for stops and targets. Adapt to your own risk model (e.g., use ATR or structure-based stops).
Keep it clean: Use this as your primary overlay to avoid clutter; add confirmations (volume, structure) only if they genuinely help your process.
Settings (typical options)
Sessions: Choose which sessions to display (e.g., Asia/London/NY) and their time zones/hours.
Daily Levels: Toggle PDH/PDL, prior open/close, prior week High/Low, and other references you rely on.
Visuals: Colors, line styles, label visibility, and optional band shading for quick recognition.
Confluence Tolerance (optional): Define how near a session extreme must be to a daily level to consider it a “liquidity touch/sweep” in your visuals.
Alerts (optional): First touch/sweep of session High/Low, break/close beyond PDH/PDL, or custom distance conditions.
Chart & Publishing Notes (for reviewers and users)
Clean chart by design: Only essential lines/labels for session extremes and daily references.
Plain-English description: Explains what, why, and how so non-coders can use it confidently.
Original integration: The value here is the purposeful interaction—seeing session sweeps in context of daily liquidity in one place—rather than a cosmetic mashup.
Limitations & good practice
This tool is contextual, not predictive. It highlights structure and liquidity landmarks; trade decisions are yours.
Session definitions vary by asset/exchange; ensure your session times match your market.
Past behavior at these levels does not guarantee future outcomes; always use proper risk management.
