Quantum Market Harmonics [QMH]# Quantum Market Harmonics - TradingView Script Description
## 📊 OVERVIEW
Quantum Market Harmonics (QMH) is a comprehensive multi-dimensional trading indicator that combines four independent analytical frameworks to generate high-probability trading signals with quantifiable confidence scores. Unlike simple indicator combinations that display multiple tools side-by-side, QMH synthesizes temporal analysis, inter-market correlations, behavioral psychology, and statistical probabilities into a unified confidence scoring system that requires agreement across all dimensions before generating a confirmed signal.

## 🎯 WHAT MAKES THIS SCRIPT ORIGINAL
### The Core Innovation: Weighted Confidence Scoring
Most indicators provide binary signals (buy/sell) or display multiple indicators separately, leaving traders to interpret conflicting information. QMH's originality lies in its weighted confidence scoring system that:
1. **Combines Four Independent Methods** - Each framework (described below) operates independently and contributes points to an overall confidence score
2. **Requires Multi-Dimensional Agreement** - Signals only fire when multiple frameworks align, dramatically reducing false positives
3. **Quantifies Signal Strength** - Every signal includes a numerical confidence rating (0-100%), allowing traders to filter by quality
4. **Adapts to Market Conditions** - Different market regimes activate different component combinations
### Why This Combination is Useful
Traditional approaches suffer from:
- **Single-dimension bias**: RSI shows oversold, but trend is still down
- **Conflicting signals**: MACD says buy, but volume is weak
- **No prioritization**: All signals treated equally regardless of strength
QMH solves these problems by requiring multiple independent confirmations and weighting each component's contribution to the final signal. This multi-dimensional approach mirrors how professional traders analyze markets - not relying on one indicator, but waiting for multiple pieces of evidence to align.

## 🔬 THE FOUR ANALYTICAL FRAMEWORKS
### 1. Temporal Fractal Resonance (TFR)
**What It Does:**
Analyzes trend alignment across four different timeframes simultaneously (15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, and daily) to identify periods of multi-timeframe synchronization.
**How It Works:**
- Uses `request.security()` with `lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off` to retrieve confirmed price data from each timeframe
- Calculates "fractal strength" for each timeframe using this formula:
```
Fractal Strength = (Rate of Change / Standard Deviation) × 100
```
This creates a momentum-to-volatility ratio that measures trend strength relative to noise
- Computes a Resonance Index when all four timeframes show the same directional bias
- The index averages the absolute strength values when all timeframes align
**Why This Method:**
Fractal Market Hypothesis suggests that price patterns repeat across different time scales. When trends align from short-term (15m) to long-term (Daily), the probability of trend continuation increases substantially. The momentum/volatility ratio filters out low-conviction moves where volatility dominates direction.
**Contribution to Confidence Score:**
- TFR Bullish = +25 points
- TFR Bearish = +25 points (to bearish confidence)
- No alignment = 0 points
---
### 2. Cross-Asset Quantum Entanglement (CAQE)
**What It Does:**
Analyzes correlation patterns between the current asset and three reference markets (Bitcoin, US Dollar Index, and Volatility Index) to identify both normal correlation behavior and anomalous breakdowns that often precede significant moves.
**How It Works:**
- Retrieves price data from BTC (BINANCE:BTCUSDT), DXY (TVC:DXY), and VIX (TVC:VIX) using confirmed bars
- Calculates Pearson correlation coefficient between the main asset and each reference:
```
Correlation = Covariance(X,Y) / (StdDev(X) × StdDev(Y))
```
- Computes an Intermarket Pressure Index by weighting each reference asset's momentum by its correlation strength:
```
Pressure = (Corr₁ × ROC₁ + Corr₂ × ROC₂ + Corr₃ × ROC₃) / 3
```
- Detects "correlation breakdowns" when average correlation drops below 0.3
**Why This Method:**
Markets don't operate in isolation. Inter-market analysis (developed by John Murphy) recognizes that:
- Crypto assets often correlate with Bitcoin
- Risk assets inversely correlate with VIX (fear gauge)
- Dollar strength affects commodity and crypto prices
When these normal correlations break down, it signals potential regime changes. The term "quantum" reflects the interconnected nature of these relationships - like quantum entanglement where distant particles influence each other.
**Contribution to Confidence Score:**
- CAQE Bullish (positive pressure, stable correlations) = +25 points
- CAQE Bearish (negative pressure, stable correlations) = +25 points (to bearish)
- Correlation breakdown = Warning marker (potential reversal zone)
---
### 3. Adaptive Market Psychology Matrix (AMPM)
**What It Does:**
Classifies the current market emotional state into six distinct categories by analyzing the interaction between momentum (RSI), volume behavior, and volatility acceleration (ATR change).
**How It Works:**
The system evaluates three metrics:
1. **RSI (14-period)**: Measures overbought/oversold conditions
2. **Volume Analysis**: Compares current volume to 20-period average
3. **ATR Rate of Change**: Detects volatility acceleration
Based on these inputs, the market is classified into:
- **Euphoria**: RSI > 80, volume spike present, volatility rising (extreme bullish emotion)
- **Greed**: RSI > 70, normal volume (moderate bullish emotion)
- **Neutral**: RSI 40-60, declining volatility (balanced state)
- **Fear**: RSI 40-60, low volatility (uncertainty without panic)
- **Panic**: RSI < 30, volume spike present, volatility rising (extreme bearish emotion)
- **Despair**: RSI < 20, normal volume (capitulation phase)
**Why This Method:**
Behavioral finance principles (Kahneman, Tversky) show that markets follow predictable emotional cycles. Extreme psychological states often mark reversal points because:
- At Euphoria/Greed peaks, everyone bullish has already bought (no buyers left)
- At Panic/Despair bottoms, everyone bearish has already sold (no sellers left)
AMPM provides contrarian signals at these extremes while respecting trends during Fear and Greed intermediate states.
**Contribution to Confidence Score:**
- Psychology Bullish (Panic/Despair + RSI < 35) = +15 points
- Psychology Bearish (Euphoria/Greed + RSI > 65) = +15 points
- Neutral states = 0 points
---
### 4. Time-Decay Probability Zones (TDPZ)
**What It Does:**
Creates dynamic support and resistance zones based on statistical probability distributions that adapt to changing market volatility, similar to Bollinger Bands but with enhancements for trend environments.
**How It Works:**
- Calculates a 20-period Simple Moving Average as the basis line
- Computes standard deviation of price over the same period
- Creates four probability zones:
- **Extreme Upper**: Basis + 2.5 standard deviations (≈99% probability boundary)
- **Upper Zone**: Basis + 1.5 standard deviations
- **Lower Zone**: Basis - 1.5 standard deviations
- **Extreme Lower**: Basis - 2.5 standard deviations (≈99% probability boundary)
- Dynamically adjusts zone width based on ATR (Average True Range):
```
Adjusted Upper = Upper Zone + (ATR × adjustment_factor)
Adjusted Lower = Lower Zone - (ATR × adjustment_factor)
```
- The adjustment factor increases during high volatility, widening the zones
**Why This Method:**
Traditional support/resistance levels are static and don't account for volatility regimes. TDPZ zones are probability-based and mean-reverting:
- Price has ≈99% probability of staying within extreme zones in normal conditions
- Touches to extreme zones represent statistical outliers (high-probability reversal opportunities)
- Zone expansion/contraction reflects volatility regime changes
- ATR adjustment prevents false signals during unusual volatility
The "time-decay" concept refers to mean reversion - the further price moves from the basis, the higher the probability of eventual return.
**Contribution to Confidence Score:**
- Price in Lower Extreme Zone = +15 points (bullish reversal probability)
- Price in Upper Extreme Zone = +15 points (bearish reversal probability)
- Price near basis = 0 points

## 🎯 HOW THE CONFIDENCE SCORING SYSTEM WORKS
### Signal Generation Formula
QMH calculates separate Bullish and Bearish confidence scores each bar:
**Bullish Confidence (0-100%):**
```
Base Score: 20 points
+ TFR Bullish: 25 points (if all 4 timeframes aligned bullish)
+ CAQE Bullish: 25 points (if intermarket pressure positive)
+ AMPM Bullish: 15 points (if Panic/Despair contrarian signal)
+ TDPZ Bullish: 15 points (if price in lower probability zones)
─────────
Maximum Possible: 100 points
```
**Bearish Confidence (0-100%):**
```
Base Score: 20 points
+ TFR Bearish: 25 points (if all 4 timeframes aligned bearish)
+ CAQE Bearish: 25 points (if intermarket pressure negative)
+ AMPM Bearish: 15 points (if Euphoria/Greed contrarian signal)
+ TDPZ Bearish: 15 points (if price in upper probability zones)
─────────
Maximum Possible: 100 points
```
### Confirmed Signal Requirements
A **QBUY** (Quantum Buy) signal generates when:
1. Bullish Confidence ≥ User-defined threshold (default 60%)
2. Bullish Confidence > Bearish Confidence
3. No active sell signal present
A **QSELL** (Quantum Sell) signal generates when:
1. Bearish Confidence ≥ User-defined threshold (default 60%)
2. Bearish Confidence > Bullish Confidence
3. No active buy signal present
### Why This Approach Is Different
**Example Comparison:**
Traditional RSI Strategy:
- RSI < 30 → Buy signal
- Result: May buy into falling knife if trend remains bearish
QMH Approach:
- RSI < 30 → Psychology shows Panic (+15 points)
- But requires additional confirmation:
- Are all timeframes also showing bullish reversal? (+25 points)
- Is intermarket pressure turning positive? (+25 points)
- Is price at a statistical extreme? (+15 points)
- Only when total ≥ 60 points does a QBUY signal fire
This multi-layer confirmation dramatically reduces false signals while maintaining sensitivity to genuine opportunities.

## 🚫 NO REPAINT GUARANTEE
**QMH is designed to be 100% repaint-free**, which is critical for honest backtesting and reliable live trading.
### Technical Implementation:
1. **All Multi-Timeframe Data Uses Confirmed Bars**
```pinescript
tf1_close = request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "15", close , lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off)
```
Using `close ` instead of `close ` ensures we only reference the previous confirmed bar, not the current forming bar.
2. **Lookahead Prevention**
```pinescript
lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off
```
This parameter prevents the function from accessing future data that wouldn't be available in real-time.
3. **Signal Timing**
Signals appear on the bar AFTER all conditions are met, not retroactively on the bar where conditions first appeared.
### What This Means for Users:
- **Backtest Accuracy**: Historical signals match exactly what you would have seen in real-time
- **No Disappearing Signals**: Once a signal appears, it stays (though price may move against it)
- **Honest Performance**: Results reflect true predictive power, not hindsight optimization
- **Live Trading Reliability**: Alerts fire at the same time signals appear on the chart
The dashboard displays "✓ NO REPAINT" to confirm this guarantee.

## 📖 HOW TO USE THIS INDICATOR
### Basic Trading Strategy
**For Trend Followers:**
1. **Wait for Signal Confirmation**
- QBUY label appears below a bar = Confirmed bullish entry opportunity
- QSELL label appears above a bar = Confirmed bearish entry opportunity
2. **Check Confidence Score**
- 60-70%: Moderate confidence (consider smaller position size)
- 70-85%: High confidence (standard position size)
- 85-100%: Very high confidence (consider larger position size)
3. **Enter Trade**
- Long entry: Market or limit order near signal bar
- Short entry: Market or limit order near signal bar
4. **Set Targets Using Probability Zones**
- Long trades: Target the adjusted upper zone (lime line)
- Short trades: Target the adjusted lower zone (red line)
- Alternatively, target the basis line (yellow) for conservative exits
5. **Set Stop Loss**
- Long trades: Below recent swing low minus 1 ATR
- Short trades: Above recent swing high plus 1 ATR
**For Mean Reversion Traders:**
1. **Wait for Extreme Zones**
- Price touches extreme lower zone (dotted red line below)
- Price touches extreme upper zone (dotted lime line above)
2. **Confirm with Psychology**
- At lower extreme: Look for Panic or Despair state
- At upper extreme: Look for Euphoria or Greed state
3. **Wait for Confidence Build**
- Monitor dashboard until confidence exceeds threshold
- Requires patience - extreme touches don't always reverse immediately
4. **Enter Reversal**
- Target: Return to basis line (yellow SMA 20)
- Stop: Beyond the extreme zone
**For Position Traders (Longer Timeframes):**
1. **Use Daily Timeframe**
- Set chart to daily for longer-term signals
- Signals will be less frequent but higher quality
2. **Require High Confidence**
- Filter setting: Min Confidence Score 80%+
- Only take the strongest multi-dimensional setups
3. **Confirm with Resonance Background**
- Green tinted background = All timeframes bullish aligned
- Red tinted background = All timeframes bearish aligned
- Only enter when background tint matches signal direction
4. **Hold for Major Targets**
- Long trades: Hold until extreme upper zone or opposite signal
- Short trades: Hold until extreme lower zone or opposite signal

## 💡 BEST PRACTICES
### For All Users:
1. **Backtest First**
- Test on your specific market and timeframe before live trading
- Different assets may perform better with different confidence thresholds
- Verify that the No Repaint guarantee works as described
2. **Paper Trade**
- Practice with signals on a demo account first
- Understand typical signal frequency for your timeframe
- Get comfortable with the dashboard interpretation
3. **Risk Management**
- Never risk more than 1-2% of capital per trade
- Use proper stop losses (not just mental stops)
- Position size based on confidence score (larger size at higher confidence)
4. **Consider Context**
- QMH signals work best in clear trends or at extremes
- During tight consolidation, false signals increase
- Major news events can invalidate technical signals
### Optimal Use Cases:
**QMH Works Best When:**
- ✅ Markets are trending (up or down)
- ✅ Volatility is normal to elevated
- ✅ Price reaches probability zone extremes
- ✅ Multiple timeframes align
- ✅ Clear inter-market relationships exist
**QMH Is Less Effective When:**
- ❌ Extremely low volatility (zones contract too much)
- ❌ Sideways choppy markets (conflicting timeframes)
- ❌ Flash crashes or news events (correlations break down)
- ❌ Very illiquid assets (irregular price action)
### Session Considerations:
- **24/7 Markets (Crypto)**: Works on all sessions, but signals may be more reliable during high-volume periods (US/European trading hours)
- **Forex**: Best during London/New York overlap when volume is highest
- **Stocks**: Most reliable during regular trading hours (not pre-market/after-hours)
---
## ⚠️ LIMITATIONS AND RISKS
### This Indicator Cannot:
- **Predict Black Swan Events**: Sudden unexpected events invalidate technical analysis
- **Guarantee Profits**: No indicator is 100% accurate; losses will occur
- **Replace Risk Management**: Always use stop losses and proper position sizing
- **Account for Fundamental Changes**: Company news, economic data, etc. can override technical signals
- **Work in All Market Conditions**: Less effective during extreme low volatility or major news events
### Known Limitations:
1. **Multi-Timeframe Lag**: Uses confirmed bars (`close `), so signals appear one bar after conditions met
2. **Correlation Dependency**: CAQE requires sufficient history; may be less reliable on newly listed assets
3. **Computational Load**: Multiple `request.security()` calls may cause slower performance on older devices
4. **Repaint of Dashboard**: Dashboard updates every bar (by design), but signals themselves don't repaint
### Risk Warnings:
- Past performance doesn't guarantee future results
- Backtesting results may not reflect actual trading results due to slippage, commissions, and execution delays
- Different markets and timeframes may produce different results
- The indicator should be used as a tool, not as a standalone trading system
- Always combine with your own analysis, risk management, and trading plan

PRIMO+ (dc_77)PRIMO+ (dc_77) - Advanced Multi-Session Trading System
Overview
This comprehensive trading indicator combines market structure analysis, Fair Value Gap (FVG) detection, and multi-timeframe bias assessment to identify high-probability trading opportunities during key market sessions. The system operates on a sophisticated framework that evaluates market sentiment across multiple reference points and provides complete trade management projections.
Core Features
Multi-Timeframe Bias System
The indicator establishes directional bias by analyzing price action relative to four critical reference points:
- 18:00 NY Open: Previous day's market opening level
- 00:00 Midnight: Daily reset reference price
- 09:30 NY Open: Current session market opening
- 09:45 NY Open: Key institutional entry timeframe
Bias Logic:
- LONGS Bias: Price trading below ALL reference levels (institutional accumulation zone)
- SHORTS Bias: Price trading above ALL reference levels (institutional distribution zone)
- BEWARE: Mixed signals across reference points (avoid trading)
Four-Session Architecture
The system monitors four distinct trading sessions, each representing different market participant activities:
1. Session 1 (09:45-10:20): London/NY overlap - high liquidity period
2. Session 2 (10:45-11:30): NY continuation - institutional positioning
3. Session 3 (13:50-14:10): Pre-close positioning - smart money moves
4. Session 4 (15:50-16:05): Market close - final institutional plays
Each session can be individually enabled/disabled with custom time ranges.
Advanced Fair Value Gap Detection
The indicator identifies three-candle imbalances using sophisticated filtering:
FVG Classification:
- Bullish FVGs: Gaps between candle 3 high and candle 1 low (upward imbalance)
- Bearish FVGs: Gaps between candle 1 high and candle 3 low (downward imbalance)
Dynamic Filtering System:
- Bias alignment filtering (only shows FVGs aligned with overall market bias)
- Trend direction filtering (FVGs must align with market structure)
- Session-based activation/deactivation
- Real-time gap validation and invalidation
Market Structure Shift (MSS) Detection
Proprietary swing-based algorithm identifies significant market structure changes:
- Bullish MSS: Price breaks above previous significant high with trend confirmation
- Bearish MSS: Price breaks below previous significant low with trend confirmation

Additional Risk Warnings and Disclaimers
Trading Addiction and Mental Health: Trading can become psychologically addictive and may lead to compulsive behavior, financial ruin, and severe emotional distress. If you find yourself unable to stop trading, risking money you cannot afford to lose, neglecting personal relationships or responsibilities, or experiencing extreme emotional swings based on trading outcomes, please seek help from a qualified mental health professional. The excitement of potential profits can mask serious underlying issues with impulse control and risk-taking behavior.
No Guarantee of Performance: This indicator has not been independently verified or audited. Backtesting results may not reflect actual trading conditions due to market slippage, execution delays, spread variations, and changing market dynamics. Historical performance is not indicative of future results, and all trading strategies can and do lose money.
Market Risk Acknowledgment: Financial markets can experience extreme volatility, flash crashes, liquidity crises, and unprecedented events that render technical analysis ineffective. Economic announcements, geopolitical events, and central bank policies can cause rapid price movements that invalidate technical setups instantly.
Position Sizing and Capital Preservation: Never risk more than 1-2% of your total account on any single trade. Proper position sizing is more important than any trading signal. Multiple consecutive losses are normal and expected - ensure your account can withstand extended drawdown periods without impairing your ability to continue trading or meet personal financial obligations.

Maiko Range Scalper (Sideways BB + RSI) – v4 cleanPurpose
It’s a range scalping strategy for crypto. It tries to take small, repeatable trades inside a sideways market: buy near the bottom of the range, sell near the middle/top (and the reverse for shorts).
Core idea (two timeframes)
Define the trading range on a higher timeframe (HTF)
You choose the HTF (e.g., 15m or 1h).
The script finds the highest high and lowest low over a lookback window (e.g., last 96 HTF candles) → these become HTF Resistance and HTF Support.
It also calculates the midline (average of support/resistance).
Trade signals on your lower timeframe (LTF)
You run the strategy on a fast chart (e.g., 1m or 5m).
Entries are only allowed inside the HTF range.
Entry logic (mean reversion)
Indicators on the LTF:
Bollinger Bands (length & std dev configurable).
RSI (length & thresholds configurable).
Optional VWAP proximity filter (price must be within X% of VWAP).
Long setup:
Price touches/under-cuts the lower Bollinger band AND RSI ≤ threshold (default 30) AND price is inside the HTF range (and passes VWAP filter if enabled).
Short setup:
Price touches/exceeds the upper Bollinger band AND RSI ≥ threshold (default 70) AND price is inside the HTF range (and passes VWAP filter if enabled).
Exits and risk
Stop-loss: placed just outside the HTF range with a configurable buffer %:
Long SL = HTF Support × (1 − buffer).
Short SL = HTF Resistance × (1 + buffer).
Take-profit (selectable):
Mid band (the Bollinger basis) → conservative, faster exits.
Opposite band / HTF boundary → more aggressive, higher RR but more give-backs.
Position sizing
A simple cap: maximum position size = percent of account equity (e.g., 20%).
The script calculates quantity from that cap and current price.
Plots you’ll see on the chart
HTF Resistance (red) and HTF Support (green) via plot().
HTF Midline (gray dashed) drawn with a line.new() object (because plot() cannot do dashed).
Bollinger basis/upper/lower on the LTF.
Optional VWAP line (only shown if you enable the filter).
Signal markers (green triangle up for Long setups, red triangle down for Short setups).
Alerts
Two alertconditions:
“Long Setup” – when a long entry condition appears.
“Short Setup” – when a short entry condition appears.
Create alerts from these to get notified in real time.
How to use it (quick start)
Add to a 1m or 5m chart of a liquid coin (BTC, ETH, SOL).
Set HTF timeframe (start with 1h) and lookback (e.g., 96 = ~4 days on 1h).
Keep default Bollinger/RSI first; tune later.
Choose TP mode:
“Mid band” for quick scalps.
“Opposite band/Range” if the range is very clean and you want bigger targets.
Set SL buffer (0.15–0.30% is common; adjust for volatility).
Set Max position % to control size (e.g., 20%).
(Optional) Enable VWAP filter to skip stretched moves.
When it works best
Clearly sideways markets with visible support/resistance on the HTF.
High-liquidity pairs where spreads/fees are small relative to your scalp target.
Limitations & safety notes
True breakouts will invalidate mean-reversion logic—your SL outside the range is there to cut losses fast.
Fees can eat into small scalps—prefer limit orders, rebates, and liquid pairs.
Backtest results vary by exchange data; always forward-test on small size.
If you want, I can:
Add an ATR-based stop/target option.
Provide a study-only version (signals/alerts, no trading engine).
Pre-set risk to your €5,000 plan (e.g., ~0.5% max loss/trade) with calculated qty.
Instant Breakout Strategy with RSI & VWAPInstant Breakout Strategy with RSI & VWAP
This TradingView strategy (Pine Script v6) trades breakouts using pivot points, with optional filters for volume, momentum, RSI, and VWAP. It’s optimized for the 1-second timeframe.
Overview
The strategy identifies breakouts when price crosses above resistance (pivot highs) or below support (pivot lows). It can use basic pivot breakouts or add filters for stronger signals. Take-profit and stop-loss levels are set using ATR, and signals are shown on the chart.
Inputs
Left/Right Pivot Bars: Bars to detect pivots (default: 3). Lower values increase sensitivity.
Volume Surge Multiplier: Volume threshold vs. 20-period average (default: 1.5).
Momentum Threshold: Minimum % price change from bar open (default: 1%).
Take-Profit ATR Multiplier: ATR multiplier for take-profit (default: 9.0).
Stop-Loss ATR Multiplier: ATR multiplier for stop-loss (default: 1.0).
Use Filters: Enable/disable volume, momentum, RSI, and VWAP filters (default: off).
How It Works
1. Pivot Detection
Finds pivot highs (resistance) and lows (support) using ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow.
Tracks the latest pivot levels.
2. Volume Surge
Compares current volume to a 20-period volume average.
A surge occurs if volume exceeds the average times the multiplier.
3. Momentum
Measures price change from the bar’s open.
Bullish: Price rises >1% from open.
Bearish: Price falls >1% from open.
4. RSI and VWAP
RSI: 3-period RSI. Above 50 is bullish; below 50 is bearish.
VWAP: Price above VWAP is bullish; below is bearish.
5. ATR
14-period ATR sets take-profit (close ± atr * 9.0) and stop-loss (close ± atr * 1.0).
Trading Rules
Breakout Conditions
Bullish Breakout:
Price crosses above the latest pivot high.
With filters: Volume surge, bullish momentum, RSI > 50, price > VWAP.
Without filters: Only the crossover is needed.
Bearish Breakout:
Price crosses below the latest pivot low.
With filters: Volume surge, bearish momentum, RSI < 50, price < VWAP.
Without filters: Only the crossunder is needed.
Entries and Exits
Long: Enter on bullish breakout. Set take-profit and stop-loss. Close any short position.
Short: Enter on bearish breakout. Set take-profit and stop-loss. Close any long position.
Visuals
Signals: Green triangles (bullish) below bars, red triangles (bearish) above bars.
Pivot Levels: Green line (resistance), red line (support).
Indicators: RSI (blue, separate pane), VWAP (purple, on chart).
How to Use
Apply to a 1-second chart in TradingView for best results.
Adjust inputs (e.g., pivot bars, multipliers). Enable filters for stricter signals.
Watch for buy/sell triangles and monitor RSI/VWAP.
Use ATR-based take-profit/stop-loss for risk management.
Notes
Best on 1-second timeframe due to fast RSI and responsiveness.
Disable filters for more signals (less confirmation).
Backtest before live trading to check performance.
This strategy uses pivots, volume, momentum, RSI, and VWAP for clear breakout trades on the 1-second timeframe.
Mutanabby_AI | Algo Pro Strategy# Mutanabby_AI | Algo Pro Strategy: Advanced Candlestick Pattern Trading System
## Strategy Overview
The Mutanabby_AI Algo Pro Strategy represents a systematic approach to automated trading based on advanced candlestick pattern recognition and multi-layered technical filtering. This strategy transforms traditional engulfing pattern analysis into a comprehensive trading system with sophisticated risk management and flexible position sizing capabilities.
The strategy operates on a long-only basis, entering positions when bullish engulfing patterns meet specific technical criteria and exiting when bearish engulfing patterns indicate potential trend reversals. The system incorporates multiple confirmation layers to enhance signal reliability while providing comprehensive customization options for different trading approaches and risk management preferences.
## Core Algorithm Architecture
The strategy foundation relies on bullish and bearish engulfing candlestick pattern recognition enhanced through technical analysis filtering mechanisms. Entry signals require simultaneous satisfaction of four distinct criteria: confirmed bullish engulfing pattern formation, candle stability analysis indicating decisive price action, RSI momentum confirmation below specified thresholds, and price decline verification over adjustable lookback periods.
The candle stability index measures the ratio between candlestick body size and total range including wicks, ensuring only well-formed patterns with clear directional conviction generate trading signals. This filtering mechanism eliminates indecisive market conditions where pattern reliability diminishes significantly.
RSI integration provides momentum confirmation by requiring oversold conditions before entry signal generation, ensuring alignment between pattern formation and underlying momentum characteristics. The RSI threshold remains fully adjustable to accommodate different market conditions and volatility environments.
Price decline verification examines whether current prices have decreased over a specified period, confirming that bullish engulfing patterns occur after meaningful downward movement rather than during sideways consolidation phases. This requirement enhances the probability of successful reversal pattern completion.
## Advanced Position Management System
The strategy incorporates dual position sizing methodologies to accommodate different account sizes and risk management approaches. Percentage-based position sizing calculates trade quantities as equity percentages, enabling consistent risk exposure across varying account balances and market conditions. This approach proves particularly valuable for systematic trading approaches and portfolio management applications.
Fixed quantity sizing provides precise control over trade sizes independent of account equity fluctuations, offering predictable position management for specific trading strategies or when implementing precise risk allocation models. The system enables seamless switching between sizing methods through simple configuration adjustments.
Position quantity calculations integrate seamlessly with TradingView's strategy testing framework, ensuring accurate backtesting results and realistic performance evaluation across different market conditions and time periods. The implementation maintains consistency between historical testing and live trading applications.
## Comprehensive Risk Management Framework
The strategy features dual stop loss methodologies addressing different risk management philosophies and market analysis approaches. Entry price-based stop losses calculate stop levels as fixed percentages below entry prices, providing predictable risk exposure and consistent risk-reward ratio maintenance across all trades.
The percentage-based stop loss system enables precise risk control by limiting maximum loss per trade to predetermined levels regardless of market volatility or entry timing. This approach proves essential for systematic trading strategies requiring consistent risk parameters and capital preservation during adverse market conditions.
Lowest low-based stop losses identify recent price support levels by analyzing minimum prices over adjustable lookback periods, placing stops below these technical levels with additional buffer percentages. This methodology aligns stop placement with market structure rather than arbitrary percentage calculations, potentially improving stop loss effectiveness during normal market fluctuations.
The lookback period adjustment enables optimization for different timeframes and market characteristics, with shorter periods providing tighter stops for active trading and longer periods offering broader stops suitable for position trading approaches. Buffer percentage additions ensure stops remain below obvious support levels where other market participants might place similar orders.
## Visual Customization and Interface Design
The strategy provides comprehensive visual customization through eight predefined color schemes designed for different chart backgrounds and personal preferences. Color scheme options include Classic bright green and red combinations, Ocean themes featuring blue and orange contrasts, Sunset combinations using gold and crimson, and Neon schemes providing high visibility through bright color selections.
Professional color schemes such as Forest, Royal, and Fire themes offer sophisticated alternatives suitable for business presentations and professional trading environments. The Custom color scheme enables precise color selection through individual color picker controls, maintaining maximum flexibility for specific visual requirements.
Label styling options accommodate different chart analysis preferences through text bubble, triangle, and arrow display formats. Size adjustments range from tiny through huge settings, ensuring appropriate visual scaling across different screen resolutions and chart configurations. Text color customization maintains readability across various chart themes and background selections.
## Signal Quality Enhancement Features
The strategy incorporates signal filtering mechanisms designed to eliminate repetitive signal generation during choppy market conditions. The disable repeating signals option prevents consecutive identical signals until opposing conditions occur, reducing overtrading during consolidation phases and improving overall signal quality.
Signal confirmation requirements ensure all technical criteria align before trade execution, reducing false signal occurrence while maintaining reasonable trading frequency for active strategies. The multi-layered approach balances signal quality against opportunity frequency through adjustable parameter optimization.
Entry and exit visualization provides clear trade identification through customizable labels positioned at relevant price levels. Stop loss visualization displays active risk levels through colored line plots, ensuring complete transparency regarding current risk management parameters during live trading operations.
## Implementation Guidelines and Optimization
The strategy performs effectively across multiple timeframes with optimal results typically occurring on intermediate timeframes ranging from fifteen minutes through four hours. Higher timeframes provide more reliable pattern formation and reduced false signal occurrence, while lower timeframes increase trading frequency at the expense of some signal reliability.
Parameter optimization should focus on RSI threshold adjustments based on market volatility characteristics and candlestick pattern timeframe analysis. Higher RSI thresholds generate fewer but potentially higher quality signals, while lower thresholds increase signal frequency with corresponding reliability considerations.
Stop loss method selection depends on trading style preferences and market analysis philosophy. Entry price-based stops suit systematic approaches requiring consistent risk parameters, while lowest low-based stops align with technical analysis methodologies emphasizing market structure recognition.
## Performance Considerations and Risk Disclosure
The strategy operates exclusively on long positions, making it unsuitable for bear market conditions or extended downtrend periods. Users should consider market environment analysis and broader trend assessment before implementing the strategy during adverse market conditions.
Candlestick pattern reliability varies significantly across different market conditions, with higher reliability typically occurring during trending markets compared to ranging or volatile conditions. Strategy performance may deteriorate during periods of reduced pattern effectiveness or increased market noise.
Risk management through stop loss implementation remains essential for capital preservation during adverse market movements. The strategy does not guarantee profitable outcomes and requires proper position sizing and risk management to prevent significant capital loss during unfavorable trading periods.
## Technical Specifications
The strategy utilizes standard TradingView Pine Script functions ensuring compatibility across all supported instruments and timeframes. Default configuration employs 14-period RSI calculations, adjustable candle stability thresholds, and customizable price decline verification periods optimized for general market conditions.
Initial capital settings default to $10,000 with percentage-based equity allocation, though users can adjust these parameters based on account size and risk tolerance requirements. The strategy maintains detailed trade logs and performance metrics through TradingView's integrated backtesting framework.
Alert integration enables real-time notification of entry and exit signals, stop loss executions, and other significant trading events. The comprehensive alert system supports automated trading applications and manual trade management approaches through detailed signal information provision.
## Conclusion
The Mutanabby_AI Algo Pro Strategy provides a systematic framework for candlestick pattern trading with comprehensive risk management and position sizing flexibility. The strategy's strength lies in its multi-layered confirmation approach and sophisticated customization options, enabling adaptation to various trading styles and market conditions.
Successful implementation requires understanding of candlestick pattern analysis principles and appropriate parameter optimization for specific market characteristics. The strategy serves traders seeking automated execution of proven technical analysis techniques while maintaining comprehensive control over risk management and position sizing methodologies.

Pullback Pro Dow Strategy v7 (ADX Filter)
### **Strategy Description (For TradingView)**
#### **Title:** Pullback Pro: Dow Theory & ADX Strategy
---
#### **1. Summary**
This strategy is designed to identify and trade pullbacks within an established trend, based on the core principles of Dow Theory. It uses market structure (pivot highs and lows) to determine the trend direction and an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to pinpoint pullback entry opportunities.
To enhance trade quality and avoid ranging markets, an ADX (Average Directional Index) filter is integrated to ensure that entries are only taken when the trend has sufficient momentum.
---
#### **2. Core Logic: How It Works**
The strategy's logic is broken down into three main steps:
**Step 1: Trend Determination (Dow Theory)**
* The primary trend is identified by analyzing recent pivot points.
* An **Uptrend** is confirmed when the script detects a pattern of higher highs and higher lows (HH/HL).
* A **Downtrend** is confirmed by a pattern of lower highs and lower lows (LH/LL).
* If neither pattern is present, the strategy considers the market to be in a range and will not seek trades.
**Step 2: Entry Signal (Pullback to EMA)**
* Once a clear trend is established, the strategy waits for a price correction.
* **Long Entry:** In a confirmed uptrend, a long position is initiated when the price pulls back and crosses *under* the specified EMA.
* **Short Entry:** In a confirmed downtrend, a short position is initiated when the price rallies and crosses *over* the EMA.
**Step 3: Confirmation & Risk Management**
* **ADX Filter:** To ensure the trend is strong enough to trade, an entry signal is only validated if the ADX value is above a user-defined threshold (e.g., 25). This helps filter out weak signals during choppy or consolidating markets.
* **Stop Loss:** The initial Stop Loss is automatically and logically placed at the last market structure point:
* For long trades, it's placed at the `lastPivotLow`.
* For short trades, it's placed at the `lastPivotHigh`.
* **Take Profit:** Two Take Profit levels are calculated based on user-defined Risk-to-Reward (R:R) ratios. The strategy allows for partial profit-taking at the first target (TP1), moving the remainder of the position to the second target (TP2).
---
#### **3. Input Settings Explained**
**① Dow Theory Settings**
* **Pivot Lookback Period:** Determines the sensitivity for detecting pivot highs and lows. A smaller number makes it more sensitive to recent price swings; a larger number focuses on more significant, longer-term pivots.
**② Entry Logic (Pullback)**
* **Pullback EMA Length:** Sets the period for the Exponential Moving Average used to identify pullback entries.
**③ Risk & Exit Management**
* **Take Profit 1 R:R:** Sets the Risk-to-Reward ratio for the first take-profit target.
* **Take Profit 1 (%):** The percentage of the position to be closed when TP1 is hit.
* **Take Profit 2 R:R:** Sets the Risk-to-Reward ratio for the final take-profit target.
**④ Filters**
* **Use ADX Trend Filter:** A master switch to enable or disable the ADX filter.
* **ADX Length:** The lookback period for the ADX calculation.
* **ADX Threshold:** The minimum ADX value required to confirm a trade signal. Trades will only be placed if the ADX is above this level.
---
#### **4. Best Practices & Recommendations**
* This is a trend-following system. It is designed to perform best in markets that exhibit clear, sustained trending behavior.
* It may underperform in choppy, sideways, or strongly ranging markets. The ADX filter is designed to help mitigate this, but no filter is perfect.
* **Crucially, you must backtest this strategy thoroughly** on your preferred financial instrument and timeframe before considering any live application.
* Experiment with the `Pivot Lookback Period`, `Pullback EMA Length`, and `ADX Threshold` to optimize performance for a specific market's characteristics.

KST Strategy [Skyrexio]Overview
KST Strategy leverages Know Sure Thing (KST) indicator in conjunction with the Williams Alligator and Moving average to obtain the high probability setups. KST is used for for having the high probability to enter in the direction of a current trend when momentum is rising, Alligator is used as a short term trend filter, while Moving average approximates the long term trend and allows trades only in its direction. Also strategy has the additional optional filter on Choppiness Index which does not allow trades if market is choppy, above the user-specified threshold. Strategy has the user specified take profit and stop-loss numbers, but multiplied by Average True Range (ATR) value on the moment when trade is open. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
ATR based stop-loss and take profit. Instead of fixed take profit and stop-loss percentage strategy utilizes user chosen numbers multiplied by ATR for its calculation.
Configurable Trading Periods. Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Optional Choppiness Index filter. Strategy allows to choose if it will use the filter trades with Choppiness Index and set up its threshold.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
Close price is above the Alligator's jaw line
Close price is above the filtering Moving average
KST line of Know Sure Thing indicator shall cross over its signal line (details in justification of methodology)
If the Choppiness Index filter is enabled its value shall be less than user defined threshold
When the long trade is executed algorithm defines the stop-loss level as the low minus user defined number, multiplied by ATR at the trade open candle. Also it defines take profit with close price plus user defined number, multiplied by ATR at the trade open candle. While trade is in progress, if high price on any candle above the calculated take profit level or low price is below the calculated stop loss level, trade is closed.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup the following strategy settings:
ATR Stop Loss (by default = 1.5, number of ATRs to calculate stop-loss level)

User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Before understanding why this particular combination of indicator has been chosen let's briefly explain what is KST, Williams Alligator, Moving Average, ATR and Choppiness Index.
The KST (Know Sure Thing) is a momentum oscillator developed by Martin Pring. It combines multiple Rate of Change (ROC) values, smoothed over different timeframes, to identify trend direction and momentum strength. First of all, what is ROC? ROC (Rate of Change) is a momentum indicator that measures the percentage change in price between the current price and the price a set number of periods ago.
ROC = 100 * (Current Price - Price N Periods Ago) / Price N Periods Ago
In our case N is the KST ROC Length inputs from settings, here we will calculate 4 different ROCs to obtain KST value:
KST = ROC1_smooth × 1 + ROC2_smooth × 2 + ROC3_smooth × 3 + ROC4_smooth × 4
ROC1 = ROC(close, KST ROC Length #1), smoothed by KST SMA Length #1,
ROC2 = ROC(close, KST ROC Length #2), smoothed by KST SMA Length #2,
ROC3 = ROC(close, KST ROC Length #3), smoothed by KST SMA Length #3,
ROC4 = ROC(close, KST ROC Length #4), smoothed by KST SMA Length #4
Also for this indicator the signal line is calculated:
Signal = SMA(KST, KST Signal Line Length)
When the KST line rises, it indicates increasing momentum and suggests that an upward trend may be developing. Conversely, when the KST line declines, it reflects weakening momentum and a potential downward trend. A crossover of the KST line above its signal line is considered a buy signal, while a crossover below the signal line is viewed as a sell signal. If the KST stays above zero, it indicates overall bullish momentum; if it remains below zero, it points to bearish momentum. The KST indicator smooths momentum across multiple timeframes, helping to reduce noise and provide clearer signals for medium- to long-term trends.
Next, let’s discuss the short-term trend filter, which combines the Williams Alligator and Williams Fractals. Williams Alligator
Developed by Bill Williams, the Alligator is a technical indicator that identifies trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three smoothed moving averages:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest of the three, based on a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars ahead.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, derived from an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, calculated using a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines diverge and align in order, the "Alligator" is "awake," signaling a strong trend. When the lines overlap or intertwine, the "Alligator" is "asleep," indicating a range-bound or sideways market. This indicator helps traders determine when to enter or avoid trades.
The next indicator is Moving Average. It has a lot of different types which can be chosen to filter trades and the Least Squares MA is used by default settings. Let's briefly explain what is it.
The Least Squares Moving Average (LSMA) — also known as Linear Regression Moving Average — is a trend-following indicator that uses the least squares method to fit a straight line to the price data over a given period, then plots the value of that line at the most recent point. It draws the best-fitting straight line through the past N prices (using linear regression), and then takes the endpoint of that line as the value of the moving average for that bar. The LSMA aims to reduce lag and highlight the current trend more accurately than traditional moving averages like SMA or EMA.
Key Features:
It reacts faster to price changes than most moving averages.
It is smoother and less noisy than short-term EMAs.
It can be used to identify trend direction, momentum, and potential reversal points.
ATR (Average True Range) is a volatility indicator that measures how much an asset typically moves during a given period. It was introduced by J. Welles Wilder and is widely used to assess market volatility, not direction.
To calculate it first of all we need to get True Range (TR), this is the greatest value among:
High - Low
abs(High - Previous Close)
abs(Low - Previous Close)
ATR = MA(TR, n) , where n is number of periods for moving average, in our case equals 14.
ATR shows how much an asset moves on average per candle/bar. A higher ATR means more volatility; a lower ATR means a calmer market.
The Choppiness Index is a technical indicator that quantifies whether the market is trending or choppy (sideways). It doesn't indicate trend direction — only the strength or weakness of a trend. Higher Choppiness Index usually approximates the sideways market, while its low value tells us that there is a high probability of a trend.
Choppiness Index = 100 × log10(ΣATR(n) / (MaxHigh(n) - MinLow(n))) / log10(n)
where:
ΣATR(n) = sum of the Average True Range over n periods
MaxHigh(n) = highest high over n periods
MinLow(n) = lowest low over n periods
log10 = base-10 logarithm
Now let's understand how these indicators work in conjunction and why they were chosen for this strategy. KST indicator approximates current momentum, when it is rising and KST line crosses over the signal line there is high probability that short term trend is reversing to the upside and strategy allows to take part in this potential move. Alligator's jaw (blue) line is used as an approximation of a short term trend, taking trades only above it we want to avoid trading against trend to increase probability that long trade is going to be winning.
Almost the same for Moving Average, but it approximates the long term trend, this is just the additional filter. If we trade in the direction of the long term trend we increase probability that higher risk to reward trade will hit the take profit. Choppiness index is the optional filter, but if it turned on it is used for approximating if now market is in sideways or in trend. On the range bounded market the potential moves are restricted. We want to decrease probability opening trades in such condition avoiding trades if this index is above threshold value.
When trade is open script sets the stop loss and take profit targets. ATR approximates the current volatility, so we can make a decision when to exit a trade based on current market condition, it can increase the probability that strategy will avoid the excessive stop loss hits, but anyway user can setup how many ATRs to use as a stop loss and take profit target. As was said in the Methodology stop loss level is obtained by subtracting number of ATRs from trade opening candle low, while take profit by adding to this candle's close.

Smart Money Liquidity Zones ProThe Smart Money Liquidity Zones Pro indicator identifies and visualizes key liquidity areas in the market where institutional traders (smart money) are likely to have placed their stop-loss orders. These zones represent areas of high liquidity that often act as magnets for price, making them valuable reference points for trading decisions.
What the Indicator Does
Core Functionality
Swing Point Detection: The indicator identifies significant swing highs and lows using three different methods (Classic, Fractal, or Combined) to locate potential liquidity pools.
Liquidity Zone Creation: At each valid swing point, the indicator creates a horizontal zone representing an area where stop-loss orders are likely clustered.
Zone Clustering: When multiple swing points occur near the same price level, the indicator intelligently combines them into larger cluster zones, indicating stronger liquidity areas.
Volume Confirmation: The indicator can filter zones based on volume, showing only those swing points that occurred with significant trading volume.
Zone Break Detection: When price closes through a liquidity zone, the indicator marks it as "Liquidity Taken" and removes the zone from the chart.
Zone Types
Buy-Side Liquidity Zones (Green): Created at swing highs where short sellers' stop-losses are likely placed
Sell-Side Liquidity Zones (Red): Created at swing lows where long traders' stop-losses are likely placed
Trading Strategies
Basic Concepts
Liquidity Runs: Price often moves toward these zones to trigger stop-loss orders before reversing. This creates trading opportunities.
Support and Resistance: Unbroken liquidity zones can act as support (sell-side) or resistance (buy-side) levels.
Breakout Confirmation: When price breaks through a zone with strong momentum, it often continues in that direction.
Entry Strategies
Strategy 1: Liquidity Grab Reversa l
Wait for price to spike into a liquidity zone
Look for rejection candles (wicks) at the zone
Enter in the opposite direction after confirmation
Place stop-loss beyond the liquidity zone
Strategy 2: Zone Break Continuation
Wait for price to close decisively through a zone
Enter on the retest of the broken zone
Target the next liquidity zone in the direction of the break
Strategy 3: Zone Clustering Trade
Focus on areas with multiple overlapping zones (clusters)
These areas offer higher probability setups
Trade bounces from cluster zones with tighter risk management
Risk Management
Always use stop-losses beyond the liquidity zones
Consider the overall market context and trend
Zones on higher timeframes are generally more significant
Volume-confirmed zones have higher reliability

Consider using Classic method instead of Fractal
PineConnector [Extension] | FractalystWhat is the PineConnector Extension?
The PineConnector Extension is a sophisticated bridge indicator designed to seamlessly connect Quantify trading signals with PineConnector's automated execution system.
This extension transforms manual signal monitoring into fully automated trading by interpreting Quantify's signal outputs and converting them into executable PineConnector commands.
Unlike standalone trading indicators, this extension serves as a communication layer between your signal generation (Quantify indicator) and trade execution (PineConnector), enabling hands-free trading across multiple timeframes and instruments.
How does the signal processing work?
The extension processes four distinct signal types from Quantify indicators:
Signal Values:
1 = Buy/Long signal - Opens bullish positions
-1 = Sell/Short signal - Opens bearish positions
0.5 = Close Long - Closes all long positions
-0.5 = Close Short - Closes all short positions
The script continuously monitors the "Signal Source" input, which should be connected to any Quantify indicator's output. When a signal is detected, the extension automatically generates the corresponding PineConnector command with your configured parameters.
What are the available order types and how do they work?
The extension supports three order execution modes:
Market Orders:
- Execute immediately at current market price
- Highest execution probability
- Subject to slippage during volatile conditions
Limit Orders:
- Execute only when price reaches a more favorable level
- Buy limits placed below current price
- Sell limits placed above current price
- Dynamic pip offset calculated using ATR-based volatility
Stop Orders:
- Execute when price breaks beyond specified levels
- Buy stops placed above current price
- Sell stops placed below current price
- Useful for breakout strategies
Dynamic Pricing Calculation:
The extension calculates optimal entry prices using volatility-adjusted pip offsets:
priceVolatility = ta.atr(14) / close * 100
volatilityFactor = math.min(math.max(priceVolatility / 0.1, 0.5), 2.0)
pipsOffset = 10 * volatilityFactor
How does the risk management system work?
Risk Percentage:
The extension uses percentage-based position sizing where you specify the risk per trade (0.1% to 10.0%). This value is passed to PineConnector, which calculates the exact position size based on:
- Account balance
- Stop loss distance
- Instrument specifications
- Broker settings
Stop Loss Integration:
- The "Stop Source" input connects to external stop loss levels from Quantify or other indicators. - This ensures:
- Consistent risk-reward ratios
- Dynamic stop placement based on market structure
- Automatic position sizing calculations
Multi-Asset Compatibility:
The extension automatically detects instrument types and adjusts pip calculations:
Forex: mintick * 10
Crypto: mintick * 10
Other assets: mintick * 1
What does the information display table show?
The real-time status table provides essential configuration monitoring:
Status Indicators:
- License: Shows PineConnector license ID status (Blue = Set, Red = Missing)
- Security: Displays secret key status (Blue = Set, Orange = Disabled)
- Comment: Shows trade comment or timeframe if empty

Support & Resistance AriesSupport & Resistance Aries
This indicator automatically identifies support and resistance levels based on the highest and lowest closing prices within a configurable period.
How it works:
The user sets a calculation period (default is 20 candles).
The indicator plots:
Green line = Support: lowest closing price within the period.
Red line = Resistance: highest closing price within the period.
Adjustable parameter:
Calculation Period (1 to 200): defines how many candles are used to find the price extremes.
Purpose:
Helps users quickly visualize dynamic support and resistance zones that adjust as price evolves, making it easier to identify areas for potential entries, exits, and stop placements.
Important:
This indicator should not be used as a standalone buy or sell signal, nor as a trend confirmation tool on its own.
It is recommended to use it in combination with other technical analysis tools such as MACD, RSI, Volume, Moving Averages, among others, for a more complete market view.
Disclaimer:
Investing involves financial risk. Be cautious with both profits and losses. Always define a stop loss to avoid larger losses if the trend reverses.
One of the golden rules in trading is: a trader should not lose more than 3% to 5% of their capital per trade. Protecting your capital should always be the priority.

Reverse Keltner Channel StrategyReverse Keltner Channel Strategy
Overview
The Reverse Keltner Channel Strategy is a mean-reversion trading system that capitalizes on price movements between Keltner Channels. Unlike traditional Keltner Channel strategies that trade breakouts, this system takes the contrarian approach by entering positions when price returns to the channel after overextending.
Strategy Logic
Long Entry Conditions:
Price crosses above the lower Keltner Channel from below
This signals a potential reversal after an oversold condition
Position is entered at market price upon signal confirmation
Long Exit Conditions:
Take Profit: Price reaches the upper Keltner Channel
Stop Loss: Placed at half the channel width below entry price
Short Entry Conditions:
Price crosses below the upper Keltner Channel from above
This signals a potential reversal after an overbought condition
Position is entered at market price upon signal confirmation
Short Exit Conditions:
Take Profit: Price reaches the lower Keltner Channel
Stop Loss: Placed at half the channel width above entry price
Key Features
Mean Reversion Approach: Takes advantage of price tendency to return to mean after extreme moves
Adaptive Stop Loss: Stop loss dynamically adjusts based on market volatility via ATR
Visual Signals: Entry points clearly marked with directional triangles
Fully Customizable: All parameters can be adjusted to fit various market conditions
Customizable Parameters
Keltner EMA Length: Controls the responsiveness of the channel (default: 20)
ATR Multiplier: Determines channel width/sensitivity (default: 2.0)
ATR Length: Affects volatility calculation period (default: 10)
Stop Loss Factor: Adjusts risk management aggressiveness (default: 0.5)
Best Used On
This strategy performs well on:
Currency pairs with defined ranging behavior
Commodities that show cyclical price movements
Higher timeframes (4H, Daily) for more reliable signals
Markets with moderate volatility
Risk Management
The built-in stop loss mechanism automatically adjusts to market conditions by calculating position risk relative to the current channel width. This approach ensures that risk remains proportional to potential reward across varying market conditions.
Notes for Optimization
Consider adjusting the EMA length and ATR multiplier based on the specific asset and timeframe:
Lower values increase sensitivity and generate more signals
Higher values produce fewer but potentially more reliable signals
As with any trading strategy, thorough backtesting is recommended before live implementation.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always practice sound risk management.
MTS📊 MTS (Murrey Math System) Trading Strategy for TradingView 📊
Introduction:
This script implements the Murrey Math System (MTS), a market analysis tool based on a set of pivot points and price ranges, designed to help traders identify key levels of support and resistance.
MTS calculates key price levels based on historical price swings and helps identify price targets, stop-loss levels, and potential breakout zones.
The strategy also includes an adaptive bias panel, showing buy or sell suggestions based on current price action relative to Murrey Math levels.
Key Components:
1. Pivot Calculation and Conditions:
Pivot Lookback & Spikeyness Index:
The pivots: lookback/forward input defines how far back (and forward) the script looks to identify potential pivot points (high and low). A smaller value focuses on more recent swings, while larger values consider a broader range.
The Spikeyness Index (atrMult) allows you to adjust sensitivity to market spikes, utilizing the Average True Range (ATR) to detect sharp price movements that could indicate potential turning points.
Pivot Conditions:
isPivHigh and isPivLow detect local high and low pivot points, respectively.
Spiky Conditions: The spikyH and spikyL conditions filter out pivots that do not meet the spikiness criteria, which is based on ATR and moving averages.
2. Swing High and Swing Low Identification:
The script identifies and stores previous swing highs (HR_prev) and lows (LR_prev), updating them based on the current market structure.
3. Proprietary Calculation:
The propCalc input enables a proprietary calculation method for determining higher or lower levels beyond the typical Murrey Math levels, offering a more adaptive approach to price targets and support/resistance levels.
4. Murrey Math Lines (MML):
MML Calculation:
The code calculates a set of Murrey Math Lines (EightEight, FourEight, ZeroEight), which are key price levels based on the range of the price over a given time period. These levels represent major support and resistance zones, with the EightEight line indicating extremely overbought conditions and ZeroEight signaling deeply oversold conditions.
Level and Extension Lines:
The script also plots additional levels and extensions based on the range between HR and LR, representing key support/resistance levels. These levels are dynamically drawn on the chart, offering clear insights into where price might reverse or break out.
Strategy Logic:
- Breakout and Breakdown:
The Bias Box panel dynamically displays a trade bias, either suggesting to "Buy on Dip" or "Sell on Rise," depending on whether the current price is above or below the midpoint of the Murrey Math range (BEP). This bias is calculated using the market's relationship to the Murrey Math Levels.
- Buy on Dip: When the price is below the midpoint (BEP), suggesting the market is in a buying zone.
- Sell on Rise: When the price is above the midpoint, suggesting the market is in a selling zone.
- Stop-Loss and Target Hints:
The stop-loss (SL) and target levels are dynamically set based on the position relative to HR and LR:
For Buy on Dip: SL is set at LR Low, Target is set at HR High.
For sell on Rise: SL is set at HR Low, Target is set at LR High.
2. Historical and Current Levels:
The script compares the most recent Murrey Math levels with historical levels. This helps identify any shifts or changes in the market structure, enhancing the trader's ability to adapt to new trends.
- Current Levels:
The current levels are drawn from the most recent HR and LR values, with corresponding extensions showing possible breakout or breakdown zones.
- Historical Levels:
Historical levels are drawn in a "ghost" style, helping traders visualize past market conditions and potential support/resistance zones that could still influence price movement.
- Trade Examples:
Example 1: Buy on Dip
a. Scenario:
Price is below the midpoint (BEP), and the bias suggests a buy on dip.
The trader looks for a rebound from the LR Low level, with a target at the HR High.
b. Entry:
Buy when the price reaches the LR Low level.
c. Exit:
Take profit when the price hits the HR High.
d. Stop-Loss:
Place stop-loss at the LR Low.
Example 2: Sell on Rise
a. Scenario:
Price is above the midpoint (BEP), and the bias suggests a sell on rise.
The trader looks for a pullback to the HR Low, with a target at the LR High.
b. Entry:
Sell when the price reaches the HR High level.
c. Exit:
Take profit when the price hits the LR Low.
d. Stop-Loss:
Place stop-loss at the HR Low.
Key Features:
Bias Panel: A table in the top-right corner showing the current market bias (Buy on Dip, Sell on Rise, or Neutral).
Displays real-time trade direction and risk information, such as stop-loss and target hints.
Dynamic Level Adjustment: As the price moves, the script dynamically updates the key levels (HR, LR, and Murrey Math lines), keeping traders aware of the most recent market structure.
Visualization Tools:
The chart is populated with a series of lines and labels that indicate the critical price levels for trading.
Support/Resistance Lines: Each key level is marked with different colors for quick recognition.
Extensions: Additional lines are plotted based on price projections, indicating where the market could potentially move.
Note:
Please note that this is an educational purpose idea, any action/trade taken will be user's own responsibility.
Enjoy!
Regards.
Titan X 📈 Titan X – Optimized Trend Strategy with Gradient ZLEMA, RMI, CCI, ROC, and Volume Confirmation
Titan X is a precision-engineered trend-following strategy designed for crypto markets and high-volatility assets. It is not just a combination of indicators, but a carefully constructed, non-repainting system where each component plays a specific role in confirming high-probability trade setups. The strategy detects strong directional moves, confirms them with momentum and volume, and manages trade exits without relying on traditional stop losses.
🔍 How the Indicators Work Together
✅ 1. ZLEMA Baseline + Gradient Filter
A Zero Lag Exponential Moving Average (ZLEMA) is used to track directional trend with minimal lag.
A gradient (slope) is calculated from the ZLEMA to measure trend acceleration. This confirms whether a trend is gaining strength or losing momentum.
Entries are only taken when the ZLEMA gradient exceeds a user-defined threshold, ensuring trades are only taken in strong, developing trends.
✅ 2. RMI – Relative Momentum Index (with Memory)
RMI captures sustained momentum direction over time.
It helps validate that price isn't just spiking, but truly trending.
Titan X uses RMI as a trend memory filter, requiring consistent momentum alignment before entry.
✅ 3. Momentum Timing – ROC + CCI
The Rate of Change (ROC) determines the strength and direction of recent momentum.
The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) checks price deviation from a moving average baseline, identifying whether momentum is aligned with market structure.
This combo prevents trades in weak, flat, or conflicting conditions.
✅ 4. Volume Spike Confirmation
Titan X uses a relative volume filter, requiring the current bar’s volume to exceed a moving average threshold.
This ensures trades are only triggered when there is clear breakout interest from market participants, helping avoid fakeouts and low-volume moves.
🎯 Trade Entry & Exit Rules
✅ Entry Conditions:
All five filters must align:
Trend direction (ZLEMA slope)
Momentum (ROC & CCI)
Trend memory (RMI)
Volume (Spike filter)
Trades are entered on the next bar after all confirmations, ensuring 100% non-repainting behavior.
✅ Take Profit System (Multi-Level TP):
TP1: Closes 50% of the position at a user-defined % gain (default: 2%)
TP2: Closes the remaining 50% of the position at a higher % gain (default: 4%)
Each TP is executed via limit order to ensure realistic and backtestable fills.
❌ No Stop Loss Used
Instead of using fixed stop losses, Titan X closes positions early when trend conditions weaken.
This dynamic exit logic is based on a reversal in ZLEMA gradient, which serves as a weak trend detection system.
⏱️ Cooldown Logic
A 1-bar cooldown is enforced between trades to avoid same-bar exit/entry violations on TradingView.
This improves execution accuracy and avoids overtrading on choppy price action.
📊 Real-Time Strategy Dashboard
Titan X includes a live dashboard that provides full transparency:

Reversal Trading Bot Strategy[BullByte]Overview :
The indicator Reversal Trading Bot Strategy is crafted to capture potential market reversal points by combining momentum, volatility, and trend alignment filters. It uses a blend of technical indicators to identify both bullish and bearish reversal setups, ensuring that multiple market conditions are met before entering a trade.
Core Components :
Technical Indicators Used :
RSI (Relative Strength Index) :
Purpose : Detects divergence conditions by comparing recent lows/highs in price with the RSI.
Parameter : Length of 8.
Bollinger Bands (BB) :
Purpose : Measures volatility and identifies price levels that are statistically extreme.
Parameter : Length of 20 and a 2-standard deviation multiplier.
ADX (Average Directional Index) & DMI (Directional Movement Index) :
Purpose : Quantifies the strength of the trend. The ADX threshold is set at 20, and additional filters check for the alignment of the directional indicators (DI+ and DI–).
ATR (Average True Range) :
Purpose : Provides a volatility measure used to set stop levels and determine risk through trailing stops.
Volume SMA (Simple Moving Average of Volume ):
Purpose : Helps confirm strength by comparing the current volume against a 20-period average, with an optional filter to ensure volume is at least twice the SMA.
User-Defined Toggle Filters :
Volume Filter : Confirms that the volume is above average (or twice the SMA) before taking trades.
ADX Trend Alignment Filter : Checks that the ADX’s directional indicators support the trade direction.
BB Close Confirmation : Optionally refines the entry by requiring price to be beyond the upper or lower Bollinger Band rather than just above or below.
RSI Divergence Exit : Allows the script to close positions if RSI divergence is detected.
BB Mean Reversion Exit : Closes positions if the price reverts to the Bollinger Bands’ middle line.
Risk/Reward Filter : Ensures that the potential reward is at least twice the risk by comparing the distance to the Bollinger Band with the ATR.
Candle Movement Filter : Optional filter to require a minimum percentage move in the candle to confirm momentum.
ADX Trend Exit : Closes positions if the ADX falls below the threshold and the directional indicators reverse.
Entry Conditions :
Bullish Entry :
RSI Divergence : Checks if the current close is lower than a previous low while the RSI is above the previous low, suggesting bullish divergence.
Bollinger Confirmation : Requires that the price is above the lower (or upper if confirmation is toggled) Bollinger Band.
Volume & Trend Filters : Combines volume condition, ADX strength, and an optional candle momentum condition.
Risk/Reward Check : Validates that the trade meets a favorable risk-to-reward ratio.
Bearish Entry :
Uses a mirror logic of the bullish entry by checking for bearish divergence, ensuring the price is below the appropriate Bollinger level, and confirming volume, trend strength, candle pattern, and risk/reward criteria.
Trade Execution and Exit Strateg y:
Trade Execution :
Upon meeting the entry conditions, the strategy initiates a long or short position.
Stop Loss & Trailing Stops :
A stop-loss is dynamically set using the ATR value, and trailing stops are implemented as a percentage of the close price.
Exit Conditions :
Additional exit filters can trigger early closures based on RSI divergence, mean reversion (via the middle Bollinger Band), or a weakening trend as signaled by ADX falling below its threshold.
This multi-layered exit strategy is designed to lock in gains or minimize losses if the market begins to reverse unexpectedly.
How the Strategy Works in Different Market Conditions :
Trending Markets :
The ADX filter ensures that trades are only taken when the trend is strong. When the market is trending, the directional movement indicators help confirm the momentum, making the reversal signal more reliable.
Ranging Markets :
In choppy markets, the Bollinger Bands expand and contract, while the RSI divergence can highlight potential turning points. The optional filters can be adjusted to avoid false signals in low-volume or low-volatility conditions.
Volatility Management :
With ATR-based stop-losses and a risk/reward filter, the strategy adapts to current market volatility, ensuring that risk is managed consistently.
Recommendation on using this Strategy with a Trading Bot :
This strategy is well-suited for high-frequency trading (HFT) due to its ability to quickly identify reversal setups and execute trades dynamically with automated stop-loss and trailing exits. By integrating this script with a TradingView webhook-based bot or an API-driven execution system, traders can automate trade entries and exits in real-time, reducing manual execution delays and capitalizing on fast market movements.

Profit Trailing BBandsProfit Trailing Trend BBands v4.7.5 with Double Trailing SL
A TradingView Pine Script Strategy
Created by Kevin Bourn and refined with the help of Grok 3 (xAI)
Overview
Welcome to Profit Trailing Trend BBands v4.7.5, a dynamic trading strategy designed to ride trends and lock in profits with a unique double trailing stop-loss mechanism. Built for TradingView’s Pine Script v6, this strategy combines Bollinger Bands for trend detection with a smart trailing system that doubles down on profit protection. Whether you’re trading XRP or any other asset, this tool aims to maximize gains while keeping risk in check—all with a clean, visual interface.
What It Does
Identifies Trends: Uses Bollinger Bands to spot uptrends (price crossing above the upper band) and downtrends (price crossing below the lower band).
Enters Positions: Opens long or short trades based on trend signals, with customizable position sizing and leverage.
Trails Profits: Employs a two-stage trailing stop-loss:
Initial Trailing SL: Acts as a take-profit level, set as a percentage (%) or dollar ($) distance from the entry price.
Tightened Trailing SL: Once the initial profit target is hit, the stop-loss tightens to half the initial distance, locking in gains as the trend continues.
Manages Risk: Includes a margin call feature to exit losing positions before they blow up your account.
Visualizes Everything: Plots Bollinger Bands (blue upper, orange lower) and a red stepped trailing stop-loss line for easy tracking.
Why Built It?
Captures Trends: Bollinger Bands are a proven way to catch momentum, and we tuned them for responsiveness (short length, moderate multiplier).
Secures Profits: Traditional trailing stops often leave money on the table or exit too early. The double trailing SL first takes a chunk of profit, then tightens up to ride the rest of the move.
Stays Flexible: Traders can tweak price sources, stop-loss types (% or $), and position sizing to fit their style.
Looks Good: Clear visuals help you see the strategy in action without cluttering your chart.
Originally refined for XRP, it’s versatile enough for most markets — crypto, forex, stocks, you name it.
How It Works
Core Components
Bollinger Bands:
Calculated using a simple moving average (SMA) and standard deviation.
Default settings: 6-period length, 1.66 multiplier.
Upper Band (blue): SMA + (1.66 × StdDev).
Lower Band (orange): SMA - (1.66 × StdDev).
Trend signals: Price crossing above the upper band triggers a long, below the lower band triggers a short.
Double Trailing Stop-Loss:
Initial SL: Set via "Trailing Stop-Loss Value" (default 6% or $6). Trails the price at this distance and doubles as the first profit target.
Tightened SL: Once price hits the initial SL distance in profit (e.g., +6%), the SL tightens to half (e.g., 3%) and continues trailing, locking in gains.
Visualized as a red stepped line, only visible during active positions.
Position Sizing:
Choose "% of Equity" (default 30%) or "Amount in $" to set trade size.
Leverage (default 10x) amplifies positions, capped by available equity to avoid overexposure.
Margin Call:
Exits positions if drawdown exceeds the "Margin %" (default 10%) to protect your account.
Backtesting Filter:
Starts trading after a user-defined date (default: Jan 1, 2020) for focused historical analysis.
Trade Logic
Long Entry: Price crosses above the upper Bollinger Band → Closes any short position, opens a long.
Short Entry: Price crosses below the lower Bollinger Band → Closes any long position, opens a short.
Exit: Position closes when price hits the trailing stop-loss or triggers a margin call.
How to Use It
Setup
Add to TradingView:
Open TradingView, go to the Pine Editor, paste the script, and click "Add to Chart."
Ensure you’re using Pine Script v6 (the script includes @version=6).
Configure Inputs:
Start Date for Backtesting: Set the date to begin historical testing (default: Jan 1, 2020).
BB Length & Mult: Adjust Bollinger Band sensitivity (default: 6, 1.66).
BB Price Source: Choose the price for BBands (default: Close).
Trend Price Source: Choose the price for trend detection (default: Close).
Trailing Stop-Loss Type: Pick "%" or "$" (default: Trailing SL %).
Trailing Stop-Loss Value: Set the initial SL distance (default: 6).
Margin %: Define the max drawdown before exit (default: 10%).
Order Size Type & Value: Set position size as % of equity (default: 30%) or $ amount.
Leverage: Adjust leverage (default: 10x).
Run It:
Use the Strategy Tester tab to backtest on your chosen asset and timeframe.
Watch the chart for blue/orange Bollinger Bands and the red trailing SL line.
Tips for Traders
Timeframes: Works on any timeframe, but test 1H or 4H for XRP—great balance of signals and noise.
Assets: Optimized for XRP, but tweak slValue and mult for other markets (e.g., tighter SL for low-volatility pairs).
Risk Management: Keep marginPercent low (5-10%) for volatile assets; adjust leverage based on your risk tolerance.
Visuals: The red stepped SL line shows only during trades—zoom in to see its tightening in action.
Visuals on the Chart
Blue Line: Upper Bollinger Band (trend entry for longs).
Orange Line: Lower Bollinger Band (trend entry for shorts).
Red Stepped Line: Trailing Stop-Loss (shifts tighter after the first profit target).
Order Labels: Short tags like "OL" (Open Long), "CS" (Close Short), "LSL" (Long Stop-Loss), etc., mark trades.

✅ Money Flow Divergence (MFD) → To track liquidity imbalances and institutional accumulation/distribution.
✅ Trend Confirmation (EMA + VWAP) → To identify strong trend direction and avoid choppy markets.
✅ ADX Strength Filter → To ensure entries only occur in trending conditions, avoiding weak setups.
✅ Break-Even & Dynamic Stop-Losses → To reduce drawdowns and protect profits dynamically.
This script automatically generates Buy and Sell signals and provides built-in risk management for automated trading execution through TradingView Webhooks.
🔹 How Does This Strategy Work?
📌 1. Trend Confirmation (EMA + VWAP)
The strategy uses:
✔ 9-EMA & 21-EMA: Fast-moving averages to detect short-term momentum.
✔ VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price): Ensures trades align with institutional volume flow.
How it works:
Bullish Condition: 9-EMA above 21-EMA AND price above VWAP → Confirms buy trend.
Bearish Condition: 9-EMA below 21-EMA AND price below VWAP → Confirms sell trend.
📌 2. Liquidity & Money Flow Divergence (MFD)
This indicator measures liquidity shifts by tracking momentum changes in price and volume.
✔ MFD Calculation:
Uses Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of Momentum (MOM) to detect changes in buying/selling pressure.
If MFD is above its moving average, it signals liquidity inflows → bullish strength.
If MFD is below its moving average, it signals liquidity outflows → bearish weakness.
Why is this important?
Detects when Smart Money is accumulating or distributing before major moves.
Filters out false breakouts by confirming momentum strength before entry.
📌 3. Trade Entry Triggers (Candlestick Patterns & ADX Filter)
To avoid random entries, the strategy waits for specific candlestick confirmations with ADX trend strength:
✔ Bullish Entry (Buy Signal) → Requires:
Bullish Engulfing Candle (Reversal confirmation)
ADX > 20 (Ensures strong trending conditions)
MFD above its moving average (Liquidity inflows)
9-EMA > 21-EMA & price above VWAP (Trend confirmation)
✔ Bearish Entry (Sell Signal) → Requires:
Bearish Engulfing Candle (Reversal confirmation)
ADX > 20 (Ensures strong trending conditions)
MFD below its moving average (Liquidity outflows)
9-EMA < 21-EMA & price below VWAP (Trend confirmation)
📌 4. Risk Management & Profit Protection
This strategy is built with strict risk management to maintain low drawdowns and maximize profits:
✔ Dynamic Position Sizing → Automatically adjusts trade size to risk a fixed $400 per trade.
✔ Adaptive Stop-Losses → Uses ATR-based stop-loss (0.8x ATR) to adapt to market volatility.
✔ Take-Profit Targets → Fixed at 2x ATR for a Risk:Reward ratio of 2:1.
✔ Break-Even Protection → Moves stop-loss to entry once price moves 1x ATR in profit, locking in gains.
✔ Max Daily Loss Limit (-$1,000) → Stops trading if total losses exceed $1,000, complying with Topstep rules.
[TehThomas] - ICT Liquidity sweepsThe ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator is designed to track liquidity zones in the market areas where stop-losses and pending orders are typically clustered. This indicator marks buyside liquidity (resistance) and sellside liquidity (support), helping traders identify areas where price is likely to manipulate liquidity before making a significant move.
This tool is based on Inner Circle Trader (ICT) Smart Money Concepts, which emphasize how institutional traders, or “Smart Money,” manipulate liquidity to fuel price movements. By identifying these zones, traders can anticipate liquidity sweeps and position themselves accordingly.
⚙️ How It Works
1️⃣ Detects Key Liquidity Zones
The script automatically identifies significant swing highs and swing lows in price action using a pivot-based method.
A swing high (buyside liquidity) is a peak where price struggles to break higher, forming a resistance level.
A swing low (sellside liquidity) is a valley where price struggles to go lower, creating a support level.
These liquidity points are prime targets for liquidity sweeps before a true trend direction is confirmed.
2️⃣ Draws Liquidity Lines
Once a swing high or low is identified, a horizontal line is drawn at that level.
The lines extend to the right, serving as future liquidity targets until they are broken.
The indicator allows customization in terms of color, line width, and maximum number of liquidity lines displayed at once.
3️⃣ Handles Liquidity Sweeps
When price breaks a liquidity level, the indicator reacts based on the chosen action setting:
Dotted/Dashed: The line remains visible but changes style to indicate a sweep.
Delete: The line is completely removed once price has interacted with it.
This feature ensures that traders can easily spot where liquidity has been taken and determine whether a reversal or continuation is likely.
4️⃣ Prevents Chart Clutter
To maintain a clean chart, the script limits the number of liquidity lines displayed at any given time.
When new liquidity zones are formed, the oldest lines are automatically removed, keeping the focus on the most relevant liquidity zones.
🎯 How to Use the ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator
🔍 Identifying Liquidity Grabs
This indicator helps you identify areas where Smart Money is targeting liquidity before making a move.
Buyside Liquidity (BSL) Sweeps:
Occur when price spikes above a resistance level before reversing downward.
Indicate that Smart Money has hunted stop-losses and buy stops before driving price lower.
Sellside Liquidity (SSL) Sweeps:
Occur when price drops below a support level before reversing upward.
Indicate that Smart Money has collected liquidity from stop-losses and sell stops before pushing price higher.
📈 Combining with Market Structure Shifts (MSS)
One of the best ways to use this indicator is in conjunction with our Market Structure Shifts Indicator.
Liquidity sweeps + MSS Confirmation give strong high-probability trade setups:
Wait for a liquidity sweep (price takes out a liquidity level).
Look for an MSS in the opposite direction (e.g., price sweeps a high, then breaks a recent low).
Enter the trade in the new direction with stop-loss above/below the liquidity sweep.
📊 Entry & Exit Strategies
Long Trade Example:
Price sweeps a key sellside liquidity level (SSL) → creates a false breakdown.
MSS confirms a reversal (price breaks structure upwards).
Enter long position after confirmation.
Stop-loss below the liquidity grab to minimize risk.
Short Trade Example:
Price sweeps a key buyside liquidity level (BSL) → takes liquidity above resistance.
MSS confirms a bearish move (price breaks a key support level).
Enter short position after confirmation.
Stop-loss above the liquidity grab.
🚀 Why This Indicator is a Game-Changer
✅ Helps Identify Smart Money Manipulation – Understand where institutions are likely to grab liquidity before the real move happens.
✅ Enhances Market Structure Analysis – When paired with MSS, liquidity sweeps become powerful signals for trend reversals.
✅ Filters Out False Breakouts – Many traders get caught in liquidity grabs. This indicator helps avoid bad entries.
✅ Keeps Your Chart Clean – The auto-limiting feature ensures that only the most relevant liquidity levels remain visible.
✅ Works on Any Timeframe – Whether you’re a scalper, day trader, or swing trader, liquidity concepts apply universally.
📌 Final Thoughts
The ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator is a must-have tool for traders who follow Smart Money Concepts. By tracking liquidity levels and highlighting sweeps, it allows traders to enter trades with precision while avoiding false breakouts.
When combined with Market Structure Shifts (MSS), this strategy becomes even more powerful, offering traders an edge in spotting reversals and timing entries effectively.
