Crypto Anchored VWAP (Swing High/Low)Crypto Anchored VWAP (Swing High/Low)
This indicator provides an automatic Anchored VWAP system designed specifically for highly volatile assets such as cryptocurrencies (ETH, BTC, SOL, etc.).
Unlike traditional AVWAP tools that require manual date input, this script automatically anchors VWAP to the most recent swing high and swing low, making it ideal for real-time trend tracking and intraday/4H structure analysis.
How It Works
The script detects local swing lows and swing highs based on user-defined swing length.
When a new swing point appears, an Anchored VWAP is initialized from that specific candle.
As price evolves, the AVWAP dynamically becomes:
A trend boundary
A fair-value line
A mean-reversion attractor
Traders can use these levels to identify:
Trend continuation
Breakout confirmation
Mean reversion pullbacks
Overextended expansions
Included Features
✔ Auto-Anchored VWAP from swing low
✔ Auto-Anchored VWAP from swing high
✔ Standard deviation bands (1σ) for volatility context
✔ Designed for Crypto 4H / 1H / 15m
✔ Works on any asset & any timeframe
How To Use
1. Trend Direction
Price above Swing-Low VWAP → Bullish bias
Price below Swing-High VWAP → Bearish bias
2. Trade Setups
Break → Retest → Hold above AVWAP = Trend continuation long
Reject from AVWAP / σ band = Mean-reversion short setup
AVWAP zone → High probability liquidity reaction
3. Volatility Bands
Price touching +1σ = extension
Price returning to 0σ = mean reversion
Price breaking −1σ = trend weakening
Inputs
Swing Length: determines sensitivity of swing high/low detection
(Default: 5)
Best Use Cases
ETH 4H trend following
BTC structure shifts
Altcoin volatility filtering
Identifying institutional "cost basis" zones
Confirming breakouts / fakeouts
Notes
This is not a trading system by itself but a structural tool meant to help traders understand trend and value location. Always combine AVWAP with market structure, volume, and risk management.

DarkPool FlowDarkPool Flow is a professional-grade technical analysis tool designed to align retail traders with the dominant "smart money" flow. Unlike standard moving average crossovers that often generate false signals during consolidation, this script employs a multi-layered filtering engine to isolate high-probability trends.
The core philosophy of this indicator is that Trends are fractal. A sustainable move on a lower timeframe must be supported by momentum on a higher timeframe. By comparing a "Fast Signal Trend" against a "Slow Anchor Trend" (e.g., Daily vs. Weekly), the script identifies the market bias used by institutional algorithms.
This edition features a Smart Recovery Engine, ensuring that valid trends are not missed simply because momentum started slowly, and a Dynamic Cloud that visually represents the strength of the trend spread.
Key Features
1. Auto-Adaptive Timeframe Logic
The script eliminates the guesswork of Multi-Timeframe (MTF) selection. By enabling "Auto-Adapt," the indicator detects your current chart timeframe and automatically maps it to the mathematically correct institutional pairings:
Scalping (<15m): Uses 15-Minute Trend vs. 1-Hour Anchor.
Day Trading (15m - 1H): Uses 4-Hour Trend vs. Daily Anchor.
Swing Trading (4H - Daily): Uses Daily Trend vs. Weekly Anchor (The classic "Golden" setup).
Investing (Weekly): Uses 21-Week EMA vs. 50-Week SMA (Bull Market Support Band logic).
2. Smart Recovery Signal Engine
Standard crossover scripts often miss major moves if the specific breakout candle has low volume or weak ADX. This script utilizes a state-machine logic that "remembers" the trend direction. If a trend begins during low volatility (gray candles), the script waits. The moment volatility and momentum confirm the move, a Smart Recovery Signal is triggered, allowing you to enter an existing trend safely.
3. Chop Protection (Gray Candles)
Preservation of capital is the priority. The script analyzes the Average Directional Index (ADX) and Volatility (ATR).
Colored Candles (Green/Red): The market is trending with sufficient strength. Trading is permitted.
Gray Candles: The market is in a low-energy chop or consolidation (ADX < 20). Trading is discouraged.
4. Dynamic Trend Cloud
The space between the Fast and Slow trends is filled with a dynamic cloud.
Darker/Opaque Cloud: Indicates a widening spread, suggesting accelerating momentum.
Lighter/Transparent Cloud: Indicates a narrowing spread, suggesting the trend may be weakening or consolidating.
5. Pullback & Retest Signals (+)
While triangles mark the start of a trend, the Plus (+) signs mark low-risk opportunities to add to a position. These appear when price dips into the cloud, finds support at the "Fair Value" zone, and closes back in the direction of the trend with confirmed momentum.
User Guide & Strategy
Setup
Add the indicator to your chart.
For Beginners: Enable "Auto-Adaptive Timeframes" in the settings.
For Advanced Users: Disable Auto-Adapt and manually configure your Fast/Slow pairings (Default is Daily 50 EMA / Weekly 50 EMA).
Signal Mode: Choose "First Breakout Only" for a cleaner chart, or "All Signals" if you wish to see re-entry points during choppy starts.
Long Entry Criteria (Buy)
Trend: The Cloud must be Green (Fast Trend > Slow Trend).
Signal: A Green Triangle appears below the bar.
Confirmation: The signal candle must not be Gray.
Re-Entry: A small Green (+) sign appears, indicating a successful test of the cloud support.
Short Entry Criteria (Sell)
Trend: The Cloud must be Red (Fast Trend < Slow Trend).
Signal: A Red Triangle appears above the bar.
Confirmation: The signal candle must not be Gray.
Re-Entry: A small Red (+) sign appears, indicating a successful test of the cloud resistance.
Stop Loss & Risk Management
Stop Loss: A standard institutional stop loss is placed just beyond the Slow Trend Line (the outer edge of the cloud). If price closes beyond the Slow Trend, the macro thesis is invalid.
Take Profit: Target liquidity pools or use a trailing stop based on the Fast Trend line.
Settings Overview
Mode Selection: Toggle between Auto-Adaptive logic or Manual control.
Manual Configuration: Define the specific Timeframe, Length, and Type (EMA, SMA, WMA) for both Fast and Slow trends.
Signal Logic: Toggle "Show Pullback Signals" on/off. Switch between "First Breakout" or "All Signals."
Quality Filters: Toggle individual filters (ATR, RSI, ADX) to adjust sensitivity. Turning these off makes the script more responsive but increases false signals.
Visual Style: Customize colors for Bullish, Bearish, and Neutral (Gray) states. Adjust cloud transparency.

SuperTrend Oscillator MTF█ OVERVIEW
SuperTrend Oscillator MTF is a multi-timeframe version of the classic SuperTrend converted into an oscillator. Instead of drawing the SuperTrend line on the price chart, it displays the distance of the close from the SuperTrend line simultaneously for the current timeframe and two additional timeframes. This allows you to instantly see the trend direction and strength across three selected timeframes in a single window.
█ CONCEPT
The classic SuperTrend value is subtracted from price and normalized so that trend direction can be directly compared across different timeframes without switching charts.
- Value above zero = price below SuperTrend line → bearish trend
- Value below zero = price above SuperTrend line → bullish trend
- The further away from zero, the stronger the trend.
█ FEATURES
- Three SuperTrend Oscillator lines: current TF, TF1 and TF2
- Automatic detection of 3-timeframe agreement
- BUY and SELL labels that appear only when all three timeframes turn in the same direction at the same moment
- Circle signals on every zero-line cross of the current timeframe
- Configurable soft gradient fill (can be disabled)
- Zero line changes color (green/red/gray) depending on 3-TF agreement
- Fully customizable colors for each timeframe
- Built-in alerts for all signal types
█ HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to the chart → set two additional timeframes and adjust ATR Period and Factor to suit your trading style.
Main settings:
- ATR Period → default 10
- Factor → default 3.0 (higher = fewer signals)
- TF 1 and TF 2 → any timeframes (e.g. 1H+4H, 4H+D, D+W, etc.)
- Enable gradient → turn fill on/off
- Show BUY/SELL labels (3 TF agreement) → enable/disable the strongest signals
Interpretation:
Two types of signals:
- Green/red circles → current timeframe changes trend direction (faster signal)
- BUY/SELL labels → all three timeframes simultaneously switch to the same direction (strongest confluence)
- Additionally, the zero line turns green or red when all three trends are aligned.
█ APPLICATIONS
Perfect for:
- Trend-following with multi-timeframe confirmation
- Filtering false breakouts on lower timeframes
- Scalping & day trading (use fast circle signals)
- Swing & position trading (wait for full 3-TF agreement)
Best combined with:
- Support/resistance levels and supply/demand zones – enter long after a confirmed breakout and retest of a key level (e.g. Change of Character, Break of Structure, Order Block, 0.618–0.786 Fibonacci) only when the oscillator shows 3-TF agreement or at least a bullish circle. Hold the trade to the next significant resistance/supply zone.
- Volume and Volume Profile – confirm move strength with rising volume and high-volume nodes at the breakout level. Declining volume while moving away from zero may signal trend exhaustion.
- Classic oscillators (RSI, Stochastic, MACD) – use primarily for spotting divergences and overbought/oversold conditions. One of the safest exits is when a regular or hidden divergence appears on RSI/Stochastic in an extreme zone, even if SuperTrend Oscillator MTF still shows alignment.
█ NOTES
- Works on all markets and all timeframes
- BUY/SELL labels (3-TF agreement) are the cleanest and strongest signals
- Circle signals are faster but more prone to noise
- Higher ATR Period = fewer signals, higher quality
IDWM Master StructureExecutive Summary
The IDWM Master Structure is a Multi-Timeframe (MTF) trading tool designed to force discipline by aligning traders with the "Parent" trend. It functions by locking onto the "Completed Auction" of a higher timeframe candle (like a Daily or Weekly bar) and projecting that structure onto your lower timeframe chart. Its primary goal is to define the "Dealing Range"—the hard boundaries where value was previously established—so you don't get lost in the noise of smaller price movements.
1. The Principle of Completed Auctions (Hierarchy)
Most technical indicators curve dynamically with every price tick. This script acts differently because it relies on "Settled Arguments." A closed Daily candle represents a finished battle between buyers and sellers; the High and Low are the historical results of that battle.
To enforce this, the script automatically selects a "Parent" timeframe based on your view:
Scalping (charts below 15 minutes) uses the 4-Hour Auction.
Intraday trading (15 minutes to 4 Hours) uses the Daily Auction.
Swing trading (Daily chart) uses the Weekly Auction.
2. Liquidity Pools & The Sticky Range
The High and Low lines drawn by the indicator are not just support and resistance; they represent Liquidity Pools. In market theory, stop-losses (Sell Stops below Lows, Buy Stops above Highs) accumulate at these edges.
Smart money often pushes price just past these lines to grab this liquidity (a "Stop Hunt") before reversing direction. To account for this, the script uses a "Sticky Range" mechanism. It refuses to redraw the box simply because price touched the line. Instead, it uses an Average True Range (ATR) Buffer. A new structure is only formed if the candle closes decisively outside the range plus this volatility buffer. This ensures you are trading real breakouts, not liquidity sweeps.
3. Internal Range Mechanics (Premium vs. Discount)
Inside the Master Box, the script applies Equilibrium Theory to help with trade location.
The most important internal line is the Equilibrium (EQ), which marks the exact 50% point of the range.
Premium Zone (Above EQ): Price is mathematically "expensive" relative to the recent range. Algorithms generally look to establish Short positions here.
Discount Zone (Below EQ): Price is considered "cheap." Algorithms generally look to establish Long positions here.
It also plots the Master Open, which acts as a "Line in the Sand." If price is currently trading above the Master Open, the higher timeframe candle is Green (Bullish), suggesting longs have a higher probability. If below, the candle is Red (Bearish).
4. Wick Theory (Failed Auctions)
The script places special emphasis on the wicks of the Master Candle because a wick represents a "Failed Auction"—a price level the market tried to explore but ultimately rejected.
The indicator highlights the background of the wick area (from the High to the Body). On a retest, these zones often act as supply or demand blocks because the market remembers the previous failure.
It also calculates the "Consequent Encroachment," which is the 50% midpoint of the wick. The rule of thumb here is that if a candle body can close past 50% of a wick, the rejection is nullified, and price will likely travel to fill the entire wick.
5. Energy Expansion (Breakout Targets)
Market energy transfers from Consolidation (inside the box) to Expansion (the breakout). When the price finally breaks the "Sticky Range" (confirming via the ATR buffer), the script projects where that energy will go.
It uses the height of the previous range to calculate Fibonacci extensions. Specifically, it targets the 1.618 Extension, often called the "Golden Ratio." This is a statistically significant level where expansion moves tend to exhaust themselves and reverse.
6. Safety Protocol: Live Detection
A dashboard monitors the state of the parent candle. If the text turns Magenta with a warning symbol, it means the Higher Timeframe candle is "Live" (still forming).
Trading off a live structure is considered higher risk because the "Auction" isn't finished—the High or Low can still shift. The safest approach is to trade when the dashboard indicates a standard, locked, historical structure.
Auto 5-Wave Fixed Channel + Wave 5 Top / Wave 2-ABC BottomAuto 5-Wave Fixed Channel + Wave 5 Top / Wave 2-ABC Bottom
by Ron999
1. What this indicator does
This tool automatically hunts for bullish 5-wave impulse structures and then:
Labels the waves: W1, W2, W3, W4, W5
Draws a fixed “acceleration” channel based on the wave structure
Projects a Wave-5 target zone using a 1.618 extension
Marks the Wave-2 level as an ABC correction target
Triggers optional alerts when:
A new Wave-5 top completes
An ABC bottom forms back near the Wave-2 low
It’s designed as a mechanical, rule-based approximation of Elliott 5-wave impulses – built for traders who like the idea of wave structure but want something objective and programmable.
2. How the wave logic works
The script continuously scans for pivot highs and lows using a user-defined Pivot Length.
It only keeps the last 5 alternating pivots (high → low → high → low → high).
When those last 5 pivots form this pattern:
Pivot 1 → High (W1)
Pivot 2 → Low (W2)
Pivot 3 → High (W3)
Pivot 4 → Low (W4)
Pivot 5 → High (W5)
…the indicator treats this as a bullish 5-wave impulse.
When such a structure is detected, it “locks in” the wave prices and bars and draws the channels and labels.
Note: Pivots are only confirmed after Pivot Length bars, so swings are slightly delayed by design (standard pivot logic).
3. Channels & levels
Once a valid bullish 5-wave structure is found, the script builds three key pieces:
a) Base Acceleration Channel (Blue)
Anchored from Wave-2 low toward Wave-3 high.
This forms a rising acceleration channel that represents the impulse leg.
The channel extends to the right, so you can see how price interacts with it after W3–W5.
b) Wave-5 Target Line (Red, dashed)
Uses the height from Wave-2 low to Wave-3 high.
Projects a 1.618 extension of that height above Wave-3.
This line acts as a potential Wave-5 exhaustion zone (take-profit / reversal watch area).
c) Wave-2 / ABC Bottom Level (Green, dotted)
Horizontal line drawn at the Wave-2 low.
This acts as a retest / corrective target for the ABC correction after the impulse completes.
When price later revisits this area (within a tolerance), the script can mark it as a potential ABC bottom.
4. Labels & signals
If labels are enabled:
W1, W2, W3, W4, W5 are plotted directly on their corresponding pivot bars.
When an ABC-style retest is detected near the Wave-2 level, an “ABC” label is printed at that low.
Wave-5 Top Event
Triggered when a new valid bullish 5-wave structure is completed.
The last pivot high in the pattern is flagged as Wave-5.
ABC Bottom Event
After a Wave-5 impulse, the script watches for new low pivots.
If a new low forms within ABC Bottom Proximity (%) of the Wave-2 price, it is treated as an ABC bottom near Wave-2 and marked on the chart.
5. Inputs & customization
Show Fixed Channels
Toggle all channel drawing on/off.
Label Waves
Toggle plotting of W1–W5 and ABC labels.
Alerts: Wave-5 Top & ABC Bottom
Master switch for enabling the script’s alert conditions.
Pivot Length
Controls how “swingy” the detection is.
Smaller values → more frequent, smaller waves
Larger values → fewer, larger structural waves
ABC Bottom Proximity (%)
Allowed percentage distance between the ABC low and the Wave-2 price.
Example: 5% means any ABC low within ±5% of Wave-2 is considered valid.
6. Alerts (how to use them)
The script exposes two alertcondition() events:
Wave-5 Top (Bullish Impulse)
Fires when a new 5-wave bullish structure completes.
Use this to watch for potential exhaustion tops or to tighten stops.
ABC Bottom near Wave-2 Low
Fires when an ABC-style correction prints a low near the Wave-2 level.
Use this to stalk potential end-of-correction entries in the direction of the original impulse.
On TradingView, add an alert to the script and choose the desired condition from the dropdown.
7. How to use it in your trading
This tool is best used as a structural context layer, not a standalone system:
Identify bullish impulsive trends when a Wave-5 structure completes.
Use the Wave-5 target line as a potential area for:
Scaling out
Watching for exhaustion / divergences / reversal patterns
Use the Wave-2/ABC level and ABC Bottom signal:
To look for end of correction entries back in the trend direction
To align with your own confluence (support/resistance, volume, RSI, etc.)
It works well on crypto, FX, indices, and stocks, especially on higher timeframes where structure is cleaner.
8. Limitations & notes
This is a mechanical approximation of Elliott 5-wave theory — it will not match every analyst’s discretionary count.
Pivots are confirmed after Pivot Length bars, so signals are not instant; they’re based on completed swings.
The indicator currently focuses on bullish impulses (upward 5-wave structures).
As always, this is not financial advice. Combine it with your own strategy, risk management, and confirmation tools.

Every Hour 1st/Last FVG vTDL OVERVIEW - Shoutout to Micheal J. Huddleston aka ICT
This indicator identifies the first Fair Value Gap (FVG) that forms within each trading hour, providing traders with potential entry zones, reversal points, and unmitigated gap targets. Based on the concept that the first presented FVG of each hour represents a significant price delivery array where institutional order flow occurred.
The indicator detects FVGs on a lower timeframe (1-minute default) and displays them as boxes on your chart, tracking which gaps get filled and which remain open as potential draw-on-liquidity targets.
WHAT IS A FAIR VALUE GAP
A Fair Value Gap is a 3-candle price pattern representing an imbalance between buyers and sellers:
Bullish FVG: Forms when candle 3's low is above candle 1's high, leaving a gap
Bearish FVG: Forms when candle 3's high is below candle 1's low, leaving a gap
These gaps often act as magnets for price, which tends to return and "fill" the imbalance before continuing. They function as dynamic support and resistance zones.
KEY FEATURES
Detection Types
FVG: Standard fair value gap detection with volume imbalance expansion
Suspension FVG Blocks: Requires outside prints on both sides for more refined signals
Hourly Display Modes
First Only: Shows whichever FVG appears first each hour (bullish or bearish)
Show Both: Shows first bullish AND first bearish FVG independently each hour
Last FVG Tracking
Optionally display the last FVG of each hour
Useful for comparing how the hour developed
Can extend into the next hour for continued tracking
Breakaway Gap Detection
Gaps not traded into during their formation hour extend forward
Extended gaps display labels showing formation time and date
These unmitigated gaps become price targets and reversal zones
Gap Fill Modes
Touch Box: Marks filled when price enters the gap
Touch Midpoint: Marks filled when price reaches the 50 percent level
Fill Completely: Marks filled when price fills the entire gap with visual progress
HOW TO USE
Entry Points
The first FVG of each hour provides potential entry zones based on price reaction:
When price returns to an FVG and shows rejection, enter in the direction of rejection
The gap zone represents where institutional orders likely reside
Use the boundaries of the gap for stop loss placement
A clean rejection of the zone confirms it as valid support or resistance
Reversal Points
Unmitigated gaps that extend beyond their formation hour are high-probability reaction zones:
Extended boxes with labels indicate unfilled gaps
When price finally reaches these zones, expect a reaction
The longer a gap remains unfilled, the stronger the expected response
These zones act as magnets drawing price back to them
Price Targets
Use unmitigated gaps as draw-on-liquidity targets:
Look for extended boxes above or below current price
Price tends to seek out and fill imbalances
The midpoint line often serves as a minimum target
Multiple unfilled gaps in one direction suggest strong momentum potential
FRAMING DIRECTIONAL BIAS
The first presented FVG of each hour acts as a support or resistance zone. The direction of the FVG itself does not determine bias - it is how price reacts to that FVG that reveals the true market intention.
Reading Price Reaction
Price respects a bullish FVG as support and bounces higher = bullish bias confirmed
Price respects a bearish FVG as resistance and rejects lower = bearish bias confirmed
Price fails to hold a bullish FVG and breaks through = potential inversion, look for shorts
Price fails to hold a bearish FVG and breaks through = potential inversion, look for longs
Inversion Fair Value Gaps (IFVG)
When price trades through an FVG and closes beyond it, that gap can invert its role:
A bullish FVG that fails becomes resistance - use it as a short entry zone
A bearish FVG that fails becomes support - use it as a long entry zone
The inversion signals a shift in control from one side to the other
Watch for price to retest the inverted gap before continuing
Support and Resistance Framework
Think of each hourly first FVG as a key level:
Price above the FVG: the gap acts as potential support
Price below the FVG: the gap acts as potential resistance
Watch how price behaves when it returns to the gap zone
A clean rejection confirms the level; a break through signals inversion
SHORT-TERM SCALPING APPLICATION
These FVGs provide scalping opportunities each hour:
Identify the first FVG of the hour as your key level
Wait for price to trade away from it and return
Observe the reaction at the gap zone
Enter in the direction of the reaction with tight risk
Target the next FVG, midpoint, or nearby liquidity
Trade Management
Use the opposite side of the FVG box as your stop loss zone
The midpoint of the gap often provides first target or decision point
Scale out at nearby unmitigated gaps or key levels
If the gap inverts, flip your bias and look for entries in the new direction
MULTI-HOUR CONTEXT
If price consistently respects FVGs as support across hours = uptrend context
If price consistently respects FVGs as resistance across hours = downtrend context
If FVGs keep inverting = choppy or transitional market
Use higher timeframe direction to filter which reactions to trade
Compare first and last FVG of each hour to see how momentum developed
SESSION FILTERING
The indicator automatically excludes unreliable periods:
4 PM to 5 PM New York time (market close hours 16-17)
Weekend closed periods (Saturday and Sunday before 6 PM)
All timestamps use New York timezone for consistency with futures market hours.

Orange boxes: Last bearish FVG of the hour
Black midpoint lines: 50 percent level of each gap
Filled portion overlay: Shows visual progress in Fill Completely mode
All colors are fully customizable in the settings menu.
PRACTICAL TIPS
The first FVG of each hour is a hidden PD array - treat it as a significant level
Not every gap produces a tradeable reaction - wait for confirmation
Gaps that remain unfilled for multiple hours carry more weight
Use the Show Both mode to see both bullish and bearish opportunities each hour
When multiple gaps cluster in one zone, that area becomes even more significant
Inversions are powerful signals - a failed level often leads to acceleration
NOTES
Works on any instrument and timeframe
Best used on intraday charts (1 minute to 15 minute) viewing 1 minute LTF gaps
Combine with higher timeframe analysis for confluence
These are probability zones, not guarantees - always use proper risk management
The indicator handles HTF to LTF data fetching automatically

1M XAU Cumulative Delta Volume with OB Breakouts
### Overview
This is a **session-based CVD strategy** built around the **00:00–07:00 CEST range**. It finds the high/low of that session, turns them into **adaptive ATR-based support (yellow)** and **resistance (purple)** zones, and trades only **CVD-confirmed reversals** off those levels.
---
### How it Works
* For each day, the script:
* Builds a 00:00–07:00 CEST **profile high/low**.
* Creates a **support zone** around the session low and a **resistance zone** around the session high.
* Using lower timeframe data, it reconstructs **Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)** and a **recent delta** filter.
* It arms “pending” states when price **enters a zone from the correct side**, then confirms:
* **BUY (long):** price reclaims above support and recent CVD is strongly positive.
* **SELL (short):** price rejects below resistance and recent CVD is strongly negative.
Only these two CVD signals (`buySignal` / `sellSignal`) open trades.
---
### Strategy Logic
* **Entries**
* `buySignal` → open **long** (if flat).
* `sellSignal` → open **short** (if flat).
* No pyramiding; one position at a time.
* **Exits (only TP & SL)**
* Long: TP at `avg_price * (0.5 + TP%)`, SL at `avg_price * (1 – SL%)`.
* Short: TP at `avg_price * (0.5 – TP%)`, SL at `avg_price * (1 + SL%)`.
* No opposite-signal exits.
---
### Extras
* **Reversal markers** on yellow/purple zones and **breakout/retest markers** are plotted for context and alerts but **do not trigger entries**.
* Zone width and “thickening” are ATR-based so important touches and near-touches are easy to see.
* Only suited for **1m intraday scalping** (e.g. XAU/USD), but can be tested on other markets/timeframes.
Smart Money Decoded [GOLD]Title: Smart Money Decoded
Description:
Introduction
Smart Money Decoded is a comprehensive, institutional-grade visualization suite designed to simplify the complex world of Smart Money Concepts (SMC). While many indicators flood the chart with noise, this tool focuses on clarity, precision, and high-probability structure.
This script is built for traders who follow the "Inner Circle Trader" (ICT) methodologies but struggle to identify valid Zones, Displacement, and Liquidity Sweeps in real-time.
💎 Key Features & Logic
1. Refined Market Structure (BOS & CHoCH)
Instead of marking every minor pivot, this script uses a filtered Swing High/Low detection system.
HH/LL/LH/HL Labels: Only significant structure points are mapped.
BOS (Break of Structure): Marks trend continuations in the direction of the bias.
CHoCH (Change of Character): Marks potential trend reversals.
2. Advanced Order Blocks (with "Strict Mode")
Not all down-candles before an up-move are Order Blocks. This script separates the weak from the strong.
Standard OBs: Visualized with standard transparency.
⚡ SWEEP OBs (High Probability): Order Blocks that explicitly swept liquidity (Stop Hunt) before the reversal are highlighted with a thicker border, brighter color, and a ⚡ symbol. These are your high-probability "Turtle Soup" entries.
Strict Mode Toggle: In the settings, you can choose to hide all weak OBs and only see the ones that swept liquidity.
3. Dynamic Breaker Blocks
A true ICT Breaker is a failed Order Block that trapped liquidity.
This script automatically detects when a valid OB is mitigated (broken through) and projects it forward as a Breaker Block.
This ensures you are trading off valid flipped zones (Support becomes Resistance, Resistance becomes Support).
4. Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Automatically detects Imbalances (Imbalance/Inefficiency).
Includes an ATR Filter to ignore tiny, insignificant gaps, keeping your chart clean.
Option to show the Consequent Encroachment (50% CE) level for precision entries.
5. Liquidity Zones (BSL / SSL)
Automatically plots Buy Side Liquidity (BSL) and Sell Side Liquidity (SSL) at key swing points.
Once price sweeps these levels, the zone is removed or marked as "Swept," helping you identify when the draw on liquidity has been met.
6. Institutional Data Panel
A dashboard in the top right corner displays:
Market Bias: Bullish/Bearish/Neutral based on structure.

(CRT) MTF Candle Range Theory Model# 🚀 **CASH Pro MTF – Candle Range Theory (CRT) Indicator**
**The Smart Money ICT Setup Detector** 🔥
Hey Traders!
Here is the **ultimate Pine Script indicator** that automatically detects one of the most powerful Smart Money / ICT setups: **Candle Range Theory (CRT)**
---
### What is Candle Range Theory – CRT?
**CRT** is a high-probability price action model based on **liquidity grabs** and **range expansion**.
Price loves to:
1️⃣ Raid the low/high of the previous candle (take stop-losses)
2️⃣ Then reverse and run to the opposite side of the range (or beyond)
When this happens near a **key higher-timeframe level**, magic happens!
### Bullish CRT Model
- Price touches a **strong HTF support**
- Previous candle closes near that support
- Next candle **sweeps the low** (grabs liquidity)
- Current candle **closes above the raided low AND breaks the high** of the sweep candle
**Result → Aggressive bullish move expected!**
**Entry:** On close above the high (or on retest + MSS)
**Stop Loss:** Below the swept low
**Take Profit:** CRT High or next liquidity pool
### Bearish CRT Model
- Price touches a **strong HTF resistance**
- Previous candle closes near resistance
- Next candle **sweeps the high** (grabs buy stops)
- Current candle **closes below the raided high AND breaks the low** of the sweep candle
**Result → Strong bearish expansion!**
**Entry:** On close below the low
**Stop Loss:** Above the swept high
**Take Profit:** CRT Low or next downside liquidity
This whole setup can form in **just 3 candles**… or sometimes more if price consolidates after the sweep.
---
### Why This Indicator is Special
This is **NOT** a simple 3-candle pattern scanner!
This is a **true CRT + MTF confluence beast** with:
- **Multi-Timeframe Confirmation** (default 4H – fully customizable)
- **Built-in RSI Filter** (avoid fake moves in overbought/oversold)
- **Day-2 High/Low Levels** automatically drawn (the exact CRT range!)
- **Clean “LONG” / “SHORT” labels** right on the candle (no ugly arrows or offset)
- **Background highlight** on signal
- **Fully grouped inputs** – super clean settings panel
---
### Features at a Glance
| Feature | Included |
|--------------------------------|----------|
| Higher Timeframe Confirmation | Yes |
| RSI Overbought/Oversold Filter | Yes |
| Day-2 High/Low Lines + Labels | Yes |
| Clean Text Signals (no offset) | Yes |
| Background Highlight | Yes |
| Fully Customizable Colors & Text| Yes |
| Works on All Markets & TFs | Yes |
---
### How to Use
1. Add the indicator to your chart
2. Wait for a **LONG** or **SHORT** label to appear
3. Confirm price is near a **key HTF level** (order block, FVG, etc.)
4. Enter on close or retest (your choice)
5. Manage risk with the drawn Day-2 levels
**Pro Tip:** Combine with ICT Market Structure Shift (MSS) or Fair Value Gaps for even higher accuracy!
Fractals Trend [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Fractals Trend is a trend-following overlay that leverages fractal swing points to define dynamic support and resistance zones. By storing and averaging recent high and low fractals, it determines trend direction and plots a smooth band that flips depending on market bias—displaying support during uptrends and resistance during downtrends .
🔵 CONCEPTS
Fractal Swings: Fractals are identified using a customizable length. A high fractal forms when the current high is the highest in a range; a low fractal when the current low is the lowest.
Fractal Memory: The indicator keeps a rolling window of recent high and low fractals inside arrays, limited by the user-defined storage quantity.
switch
upperF => FracrtalsUpper.push(high )
lowerF => FracrtalsLower.push(low )
FracrtalsUpper.size() > fCount => FracrtalsUpper.shift()
FracrtalsLower.size() > fCount => FracrtalsLower.shift()
Trend Detection: Price crossing above the average, min/max or median high fractals signals an uptrend; crossing below average, min/max or median low fractals signals a downtrend.
Dynamic Band Plotting: Depending on the trend, the script plots the average of either the upper or lower fractals as a trailing support or resistance line.
Visual Confirmation: Fractal labels appear as triangle markers at highs and lows, providing additional structural context.
🔵 FEATURES
Automatically detects high and low fractals using customizable length.
Stores a defined number of fractals to smooth out noise and reduce false signals.
Flips trend bias dynamically with colored band and smooth transitions.
Plots fractal-based support in bullish trends, resistance in bearish trends.
Triangle markers show real-time fractal highs and lows.
Fully configurable visuals, color themes, and fractal detection logic.
Clean, non-intrusive overlay that works on any market or timeframe.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use the colored band as a directional filter: green = uptrend (support), orange = downtrend (resistance).
Combine with entry signals or break/retest strategies when price approaches the band.
Use triangle markers to confirm structural swing points.
Adjust Fractals Length to tune sensitivity—shorter values detect quicker shifts, longer values reduce noise.
Change the fractal bands type to adapt trend detection to different market conditions.
Use in conjunction with momentum or volume tools for confluence.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Fractals Trend offers a lightweight, intuitive way to track market bias using price structure alone. Its smart switching logic and clean visuals make it a powerful tool for trend traders seeking structure-based dynamic S/R—without laggy moving averages or overcomplicated signals.
Dynamic S&R Projector [Polarity Flip]Support and Resistance should not be static. It should tell a story.
Most traders clutter their charts with manually drawn lines, often forgetting which ones were important or which timeframe they came from. This indicator automates the entire process of identifying market structure, adapting dynamically to your trading style while using Volume Price Analysis (VPA) to separate "Smart Money" levels from random noise.
It combines three professional concepts into one tool: Multi-Timeframe Projection, Volume Strength Filtering, and Live Polarity Flipping.
Who is this for?
Day Traders: Project Daily levels onto your 1-minute or 5-minute charts. Stop trading in a vacuum; see the walls before you hit them.
Swing Traders: Project Weekly levels onto your Daily chart to find major trend reversals.
Investors: Project Monthly levels to identify multi-year accumulation zones.
Core Features
1. Smart Timeframe (Auto-Detection) No more toggling settings. The indicator detects what chart you are viewing and automatically projects the next significant Higher Timeframe (HTF) structure:
Viewing Intraday (< Daily)? → Projects Daily Pivots.
Viewing Daily? → Projects Weekly Pivots.
Viewing Weekly? → Projects Monthly Pivots.
2. VPA Strength Filtering (The "Truth" Serum) Not all levels are equal. This script grades every pivot based on the volume activity at the moment it was formed:
Thick Solid Line: Formed on High Volume (>1.5x Average). This is an "Institutional Level." Expect hard bounces.
Thin Dashed Line: Formed on Low Volume. This is a weak structure.
3. Live Polarity Flip (Support ↔ Resistance) The script monitors price action in real-time to respect the "Principle of Polarity."
Wick Protection: The color change is based strictly on the Candle Close. If price wicks through a level but closes back inside, the line retains its original color (rejecting the fakeout).
The Flip: Once price successfully closes past a level, the color instantly flips (Red becomes Green, or Green becomes Red) to indicate the new market state.
How to Trade This Indicator (Example Strategies)
Strategy A: The "Concrete Wall" Bounce (Day & Swing) Identify a Thick Green Line below the current price. This represents a Strong HTF Support defended by institutional volume.
Action: Set Limit Buy orders at the line or wait for a bullish reversal candle (Hammer) to form at the touch.
Strategy B: The "Paper Wall" Breakout (Momentum) Identify price approaching a Thin Dashed Red Line (Weak Resistance).
Action: Since this level lacks volume backing, do not fade it. Look for a breakout setup as price is likely to slice through easily.
Strategy C: The "Flip & Retest" (Trend Following) Watch for a Thick Red Line to turn Green. This means resistance has been conquered.
Action: Wait for price to pull back to this new Green line. If it holds (the line stays Green), enter long. You are now using the "roof" as a "floor."
Settings Guide
Calculation Mode:
Auto (Higher TF): The recommended "Smart" mode described above.
Use Current Chart: Finds pivots on the exact timeframe you are viewing (good for scalping structure).
Fixed Manual: Locks the projection to a specific timeframe (e.g., always show Daily).
Pivot Lookback (Sensitivity):
Default (10/10): Balances major and minor structure.
Higher (20/20): Shows only the most critical major market turns.
Max Number of Lines: Limits how many historical levels are shown to keep your chart clean.

Liquidity Void Zone Detector [PhenLabs]📊 Liquidity Void Zone Detector
Version: PineScript™v6
📌 Description
The Liquidity Void Zone Detector is a sophisticated technical indicator designed to identify and visualize areas where price moved with abnormally low volume or rapid momentum, creating "voids" in market liquidity. These zones represent areas where insufficient trading activity occurred during price movement, often acting as magnets for future price action as the market seeks to fill these gaps.
Built on PineScript v6, this indicator employs a dual-detection methodology that analyzes both volume depletion patterns and price movement intensity relative to ATR. The revolutionary 3D visualization system uses three-layer polyline rendering with adaptive transparency and vertical offsets, creating genuine depth perception where low liquidity zones visually recede and high liquidity zones protrude forward. This makes critical market structure immediately apparent without cluttering your chart.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Dual detection algorithm combining volume threshold analysis and ATR-normalized price movement sensitivity for comprehensive void identification
Three-layer 3D visualization system with progressive transparency gradients (85%, 78%, 70%) and calculated vertical offsets for authentic depth perception
Intelligent state machine logic that tracks consecutive void bars and only renders zones meeting minimum qualification requirements
Dynamic strength scoring system (0-100 scale) that combines inverted volume ratios with movement intensity for accurate void characterization
Adaptive ATR-based spacing calculation that automatically adjusts 3D layering depth to match instrument volatility
Efficient memory management system supporting up to 100 simultaneous void visualizations with automatic array-based cleanup
🔧 Core Components
Volume Analysis Engine: Calculates rolling volume averages and compares current bar volume against dynamic thresholds to detect abnormally thin trading conditions
Price Movement Analyzer: Normalizes bar range against ATR to identify rapid price movements that indicate liquidity exhaustion regardless of instrument or timeframe
Void Tracking State Machine: Maintains persistent tracking of void start bars, price boundaries, consecutive bar counts, and cumulative strength across multiple bars
3D Polyline Renderer: Generates three-layer rectangular polylines with precise timestamp-to-bar index conversion and progressive offset calculations
Strength Calculation System: Combines volume component (inverted ratio capped at 100) with movement component (ATR intensity × 30) for comprehensive void scoring
🔥 Key Features
Automatic Void Detection: Continuously scans price action for low volume conditions or rapid movements, triggering void tracking when thresholds are exceeded
Real-Time Visualization: Creates 3D rectangular zones spanning from void initiation to termination, with color-coded depth indicating liquidity type
Adjustable Sensitivity: Configure volume threshold multiplier (0.1-2.0x), price movement sensitivity (0.5-5.0x), and minimum qualifying bars (1-10) for customized detection
Dual Color Coding: Separate visual treatment for low liquidity voids (receding red) and high liquidity zones (protruding green) based on 50-point strength threshold
Optional Compact Labels: Toggle LV (Low Volume) or HV (High Volume) circular labels at void centers for quick identification without visual clutter
Lookback Period Control: Adjust analysis window from 5 to 100 bars to match your trading timeframe and market volatility characteristics
Memory-Efficient Design: Automatically manages polyline and label arrays, deleting oldest elements when user-defined maximum is reached
Data Window Integration: Plots void detection binary, current strength score, and average volume for detailed analysis in TradingView's data window
🎨 Visualization
Three-Layer Depth System: Each void is rendered as three stacked polylines with progressive transparency (85%, 78%, 70%) and calculated vertical offsets creating authentic 3D appearance
Directional Depth Perception: Low liquidity zones recede with back layer most transparent; high liquidity zones protrude with front layer most transparent for instant visual differentiation
Adaptive Offset Spacing: Vertical separation between layers calculated as ATR(14) × 0.001, ensuring consistent 3D effect across different instruments and volatility regimes
Color Customization: Fully configurable base colors for both low liquidity zones (default: red with 80 transparency) and high liquidity zones (default: green with 80 transparency)
Minimal Chart Clutter: Closed polylines with matching line and fill colors create clean rectangular zones without unnecessary borders or visual noise
Background Highlight: Subtle yellow background (96% transparency) marks bars where void conditions are actively detected in real-time
Compact Labeling: Optional tiny circular labels with 60% transparent backgrounds positioned at void center points for quick reference
📖 Usage Guidelines
Detection Settings
Lookback Period: Default: 10 | Range: 5-100 | Number of bars analyzed for volume averaging and void detection. Lower values increase sensitivity to recent changes; higher values smooth detection across longer timeframes. Adjust based on your trading timeframe: short-term traders use 5-15, swing traders use 20-50, position traders use 50-100.
Volume Threshold: Default: 1.0 | Range: 0.1-2.0 (step 0.1) | Multiplier applied to average volume. Bars with volume below (average × threshold) trigger void conditions. Lower values detect only extreme volume depletion; higher values capture more moderate low-volume situations. Start with 1.0 and decrease to 0.5-0.7 for stricter detection.
Price Movement Sensitivity: Default: 1.5 | Range: 0.5-5.0 (step 0.1) | Multiplier for ATR-normalized price movement detection. Values above this threshold indicate rapid price changes suggesting liquidity voids. Increase to 2.0-3.0 for volatile instruments; decrease to 0.8-1.2 for ranging or low-volatility conditions.
Minimum Void Bars: Default: 10 | Range: 1-10 | Minimum consecutive bars exhibiting void conditions required before visualization is created. Filters out brief anomalies and ensures only sustained voids are displayed. Use 1-3 for scalping, 5-10 for intraday trading, 10+ for swing trading to match your time horizon.
Visual Settings
Low Liquidity Color: Default: Red (80% transparent) | Base color for zones where volume depletion or rapid movement indicates thin liquidity. These zones recede visually (back layer most transparent). Choose colors that contrast with your chart theme for optimal visibility.
High Liquidity Color: Default: Green (80% transparent) | Base color for zones with relatively higher liquidity compared to void threshold. These zones protrude visually (front layer most transparent). Ensure clear differentiation from low liquidity color.
Show Void Labels: Default: True | Toggle display of compact LV/HV labels at void centers. Disable for cleaner charts when trading; enable for analysis and review to quickly identify void types across your chart.
Max Visible Voids: Default: 50 | Range: 10-100 | Maximum number of void visualizations kept on chart. Each void uses 3 polylines, so setting of 50 maintains 150 total polylines. Higher values preserve more history but may impact performance on lower-end systems.
✅ Best Use Cases
Gap Fill Trading: Identify unfilled liquidity voids that price frequently returns to, providing high-probability retest and reversal opportunities when price approaches these zones
Breakout Validation: Distinguish genuine breakouts through established liquidity from false breaks into void zones that lack sustainable volume support
Support/Resistance Confluence: Layer void detection over key horizontal levels to validate structural integrity—levels within high liquidity zones are stronger than those in voids
Trend Continuation: Monitor for new void formation in trend direction as potential continuation zones where price may accelerate due to reduced resistance
Range Trading: Identify void zones within consolidation ranges that price tends to traverse quickly, helping to avoid getting caught in rapid moves through thin areas
Entry Timing: Wait for price to reach void boundaries rather than entering mid-void, as voids tend to be traversed quickly with limited profit-taking opportunities
⚠️ Limitations
Historical Pattern Indicator: Identifies past liquidity voids but cannot predict whether price will return to fill them or when filling might occur
No Volume on Forex: Indicator uses tick volume for forex pairs, which approximates but doesn't represent true trading volume, potentially affecting detection accuracy
Lagging Confirmation: Requires minimum consecutive bars (default 10) before void is visualized, meaning detection occurs after void formation begins
Trending Market Behavior: Strong trends driven by fundamental catalysts may create voids that remain unfilled for extended periods or permanently
Timeframe Dependency: Detection sensitivity varies significantly across timeframes; settings optimized for one timeframe may not perform well on others
No Directional Bias: Indicator identifies liquidity characteristics but provides no predictive signal for price direction after void detection
Performance Considerations: Higher max visible void settings combined with small minimum void bars can generate numerous visualizations impacting chart rendering speed
💡 What Makes This Unique
Industry-First 3D Visualization: Unlike flat volume or liquidity indicators, the three-layer rendering with directional depth perception provides instant visual hierarchy of liquidity quality
Dual-Mode Detection: Combines both volume-based and movement-based detection methodologies, capturing voids that single-approach indicators miss
Intelligent Qualification System: State machine logic prevents premature visualization by requiring sustained void conditions, reducing false signals and chart clutter
ATR-Normalized Analysis: All detection thresholds adapt to instrument volatility, ensuring consistent performance across stocks, forex, crypto, and futures without constant recalibration
Transparency-Based Depth: Uses progressive transparency gradients rather than colors or patterns to create depth, maintaining visual clarity while conveying information hierarchy
Comprehensive Strength Metrics: 0-100 void strength calculation considers both the degree of volume depletion and the magnitude of price movement for nuanced zone characterization
🔬 How It Works
Phase 1: Real-Time Detection
On each bar close, the indicator calculates average volume over the lookback period and compares current bar volume against the volume threshold multiplier
Simultaneously measures current bar's high-low range and normalizes it against ATR, comparing the result to price movement sensitivity parameter
If either volume falls below threshold OR movement exceeds sensitivity threshold, the bar is flagged as exhibiting void characteristics
Phase 2: Void Tracking & Qualification
When void conditions first appear, state machine initializes tracking variables: start bar index, initial top/bottom prices, consecutive bar counter, and cumulative strength accumulator
Each subsequent bar with void conditions extends the tracking, updating price boundaries to envelope all bars and accumulating strength scores
When void conditions cease, system checks if consecutive bar count meets minimum threshold; if yes, proceeds to visualization; if no, discards the tracking and resets
Phase 3: 3D Visualization Construction
Calculates average void strength by dividing cumulative strength by number of bars, then determines if void is low liquidity (>50 strength) or high liquidity (≤50 strength)
Generates three polyline layers spanning from start bar to end bar and from top price to bottom price, each with calculated vertical offset based on ATR
Applies progressive transparency (85%, 78%, 70%) with layer ordering creating recession effect for low liquidity zones and protrusion effect for high liquidity zones
Creates optional center label and pushes all visual elements into arrays for memory management
Phase 4: Memory Management & Display
Continuously monitors polyline array size (each void creates 3 polylines); when total exceeds max visible voids × 3, deletes oldest polylines via array.shift()
Similarly manages label array, removing oldest labels when count exceeds maximum to prevent memory accumulation over extended chart history
Plots diagnostic data to TradingView’s data window (void detection binary, current strength, average volume) for detailed analysis without cluttering main chart
💡 Note:
This indicator is designed to enhance your market structure analysis by revealing liquidity characteristics that aren’t visible through standard price and volume displays. For best results, combine void detection with your existing support/resistance analysis, trend identification, and risk management framework. Liquidity voids are descriptive of past market behavior and should inform positioning decisions rather than serve as standalone entry/exit signals. Experiment with detection parameters across different timeframes to find settings that align with your trading style and instrument characteristics.

XAUUSD Pro Setup Suite manuel_lnt.fx is an advanced Pine Script v6 indicator designed exclusively for XAUUSD, built to automatically detect the 5 highest-probability setups in gold day trading.
It combines institutional price action, volatility patterns, mean reversion logic, and momentum confirmation to generate clean, filtered, and actionable signals.
The indicator automatically detects:
⸻
1️⃣ Break & Retest Premium (BR)
Identifies valid breaks of key levels and signals the retest with rejection wick, EMA20 trend confirmation, and neutral RSI.
→ Excellent for trend continuation.
⸻
2️⃣ Fakeout Liquidity Trap (FO)
Detects liquidity grabs above highs or below lows with an opposite close + engulfing candle confirmation.
→ The strongest setup for fast and explosive reversals on gold.
⸻
3️⃣ MACD Zero-Line Shift (MACD)
Signals when the MACD crosses the zero line while price breaks micro-structure.
→ Perfect for spotting the start of a new trend.
⸻
4️⃣ Bollinger Squeeze → Breakout (BB)
Recognizes volatility compression and signals when a breakout is likely to explode.
→ Ideal for clean breakout trades.
⸻
5️⃣ Mean Reversion on EMA50 (MR)
Highlights price extensions far away from the EMA50 with ATR confirmation and a reversal candle.
→ Great for pullbacks back toward the mean value.
Quantile Support & ResistanceThis indicator plots dynamic support and resistance zones based on quantile logic — a statistically grounded method for identifying structural price boundaries.
Support Level: The price below which only a small percentage of lows fall (default: 10%). This approximates a strong demand zone.
Resistance Level: The price above which only a small percentage of highs rise (default: 10%). This approximates a strong supply zone.
Volatility-Adaptive: Levels adjust automatically to changing market conditions using a configurable lookback window.
Quantile Interpolation: Uses sorted price data and fractional indexing to estimate percentile thresholds with precision.
This tool is ideal for traders who want to visualize statistically significant price zones without relying on subjective drawing or fixed levels. It pairs well with breakout strategies, retest logic, and compression overlays.
Bull/Bear FVG Density RatioThis indicator tracks the directional frequency of Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) over a configurable lookback window, offering a clean, responsive measure of market imbalance.
🔍 What It Does:
Detects bullish and bearish FVGs using a 3-bar displacement logic
Calculates the ratio of FVGs to candles over the last N bars
Plots separate density curves for bullish and bearish FVGs
Includes a threshold line to help identify regime shifts (e.g., drought vs spate)
📈 How to Use:
Use rising density to confirm trend strength or breakout momentum
Watch for crossovers above the threshold to signal active imbalance regimes
Combine with price action or volume overlays for high-confluence setups
⚙️ Inputs:
Lookback Window: Number of candles used to calculate FVG density
Threshold: Visual guide for regime classification (default: 0.2)
This tool is ideal for traders who want to move beyond symptomatic signals and model structural causality. It pairs well with lifecycle scoring, retest velocity, and HTF overlays.
Higher Timeframe Candle LevelsThis is an indicator that shows higher time frame candle levels from various preset timeframes. These higher time frame candles act as support and resistance levels, so look for reversals and continuations off of these levels. When price exceeds the high or low of these levels, you should look for breakouts in the same direction and trade with the trend.
It includes candle levels for the following timeframes: 1 hour, 4 hour, 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 1 quarter and 1 year. The indicator also includes a trend candle coloring feature, trend strength scoring table, stop loss feature, line identification labels, alerts for trend changes, alerts for level touches and full customization of all options.
How To Trade With This Indicator
These higher timeframe candle levels will act as support and resistance levels, so look for price to react at any of the levels you have turned on and then look for potential bounce or reversal signs at those levels so you can trade those direction changes. Price outside of the higher timeframe candle highs and low typically signals a breakout as well, so look for price to continue after passing the highs or lows.
You can use the direction of the higher timeframe candles as your trend as well. Try to only trade in the direction of the trend of the higher timeframes to increase the likelihood of your trade going in your favor.
The highs and lows of daily and up levels are excellent levels to find quick reversal off of. Watch for price action to struggle to break through these levels and then trade the reversal. If price breaks through these levels easily, watch for price to retest the level and then continue beyond that level. Trade the retest in the direction of the trend.
The open, close and midline levels are excellent for trading bounces. Watch for price to form wicks beyond these levels and close on the other side and use that as a sign that price may bounce there. Use that with price action to confirm your trade and then take trades off of those level bounces.
Use the alerts for daily and up timeframe level touches across all of your favorite markets so that way you are always notified in real time when price is at a level that could provide a potential trading opportunity.
Higher Time Frame Candle Levels
The indicator shows the current candle open, previous open, previous high, previous low, previous close and previous candle body midline levels of each candle for each time frame. This helps you easily see what is going on with the higher time frame candles and read the price action from your lower time frame charts.
Each candle level will paint red if it was a down candle or green if it was an up candle, except the midlines and current candle open lines, those are a different color for easy differentiation. The line colors can be customized to your preferences in the settings and you can also toggle the candle body coloring on or off, as well as change the color of the candle body background.
Each timeframe can be adjusted to your preferences, allowing you to turn all of the levels on or off. You can also adjust how many previous candles show up on your chart so you can backtest it and see for yourself how accurate these levels are.
When adjusting the number of candles, you will get a notification if you have more than 500 lines turned on, so just turn down the number of levels for whatever timeframe you can’t see on your chart to lower that number below 500. The notification will go away once you are under 500 lines again. Each candle has 6 lines if all levels are turned on for that timeframe: open, current candle open, close, high, low and midline. The default settings keep you under 500 lines total, so just be aware of that limitation when adjusting those numbers and adjust the number of levels down on the timeframes that are not useful on the current chart bar.
You can also extend the levels right on any time frame from the daily levels and above. This is useful when price is breaking above or below all levels and you need to know if there are any other previous candle levels in the way as price moves away from the most recent higher time frame candles.
To understand the intraday trend of each higher time frame, look to see where price is at according to each higher time frame candle. If the price is above the midline of the candle, it is bullish. If the price is above the candle body it is more bullish. If the price is above the high, it is very bullish. If the price is below the midline of the candle, it is bearish. If the price is below the candle body it is more bearish. If the price is below the low, it is very bearish. Make sure you backtest this yourself and go through lots of historical data to get a feel for how price reacts to these levels and establishes the trend. Then use that trend information to your advantage and trade in the direction of the trend.
Since users are limited to a certain amount of historical bars based on which Tradingview plan you have, some longer timeframe levels won’t show up because the start of that candle is too far back in history. You will get a notification at the top of that chart if that happens. It will tell you to lower the display timeframe for that timeframe until that notification goes away, which means it was able to plot the most recent candle for that timeframe on your chart.
Trend Candle Coloring
The indicator includes a feature that paints the candles based on whether the current time frame candles are above or below the most recent midline, candle body or high & low of a higher time frame candle of your choice. This helps you see the overall trend of the higher timeframe so you can trade with the trend.
The candle coloring will have an up color, down color and neutral color which can all be customized to suit your preferences. If the current time frame candle close is above the setting you choose, it will show the up color. If the current time frame candle close is below the setting you choose, it will show the down color. If the current time frame candle close is equal to or in the middle of the setting you chose, it will show the neutral color.
So, for example if you set it to candle body, then it will show the up color if the current candle is above the top of the candle body, down color if it is below the bottom of the candle body and neutral color if it is inside the candle body. This helps you wait for price action to move beyond the inside of the previous higher time frame candle before taking a position when price is breaking out of that previous candle so you can trade the momentum of that move. The candle coloring is fully customizable, but make sure to turn off your candle coloring on other indicators and your chart settings for it to show up properly.
Trend Strength Scoring Table
The trend strength scoring table displays a table at the bottom of the screen(table position is customizable), showing a score for the trend strength of each higher time frame. If the current candle close is above the midline, its strength is 1. If the current candle close is above the midline, but below the top of the candle body, its strength is 2. If the current candle close is above the high, its strength is 3. The same goes for below the midline, bottom of the candle body and below the low, but the scores would be negative 1, 2 or 3 instead.
This trend strength table allows you to quickly identify the trend on each higher time frame so you can wait until the trend is the same across all time frames before placing a trade in the direction of the trend. It also shows a total score on the far right side that adds all of the current trend scores together to give you a total strength score. Try to only trade when that number is very high compared to how many time frames you have turned on. Each time frame can have up to a maximum score of 3 if bullish and -3 if bearish. Each time frame in the table can be turned on or off to suit your preferences.
Stop Loss Feature
There is also a stop loss feature that you can set to whatever time frame you choose and whatever direction you chose, such as long or short. It will follow the most recent higher time frame candle’s trend using one of the following settings: candle body, high & low or midline. Once a new higher time frame candle is created, the stop loss will update to the most recent candle’s levels so you can use these levels as a trailing stop loss to maximize your wins.
If you have it set to use the candle body and it is set to long mode, then the stop loss will use the previous higher time frame candle’s lowest candle body level. So if it was an up candle previously, it will use the open. If it was a down candle previously, it will use the close. The opposite is true for short positions.
The stop loss will start working once you turn it on in the settings and will update automatically as new higher time frame candles are formed. It also shows a line of where the stop loss was previously since it was turned on.
I recommend using the high & low setting, especially when the market starts trending.
Candle Level Identification Labels
There are labels for each level starting with the 4 hour time frame and above so you can easily tell what level of each candle you are looking at, even if the rest of the candle is not showing within the chart pane. You can customize the label coloring for up candles and down candles and midlines as well as adjust the number of bars that the labels are offset from the current bar so they are visible on your chart without overlapping the current price action or other indicator labels. Labels for each time frame can be turned on or off as needed. The 1 hour labels were not included because it clogs up the chart, but it has labels for all time frames from the 4 hour candles and up.
Alerts
The indicator includes alerts for when the trend has changed to the opposite direction. The trend change alert is based on your settings for the Trend Candle Coloring. Whatever settings you have the trend candle coloring set to, will be used to set up your alerts. The Trend Candle Coloring setting must be turned on as well when creating your alerts for it to work properly. Make sure to backtest your settings and then create your alerts.
It also has alerts for when price is touching an open or close, high or low, midline or any of those levels for each timeframe. This allows you to be notified when price touches one of these levels so you can check the chart and look for potential trade opportunities if price wants to bounce off of that level. To make it easy for you to get alerts on many different tickers, just use the alert for any level touch on whatever timeframes you want.
