Microgaps (plots-only, 4-channel, same-day only)Purpose:
This indicator visually highlights 3-bar price gaps on your chart, showing clear visual structure for gap zones without lag or diagonal artifacts.
It draws two outer lines (top and bottom of the gap) for every valid 3-bar gap, and optionally a midline when the gap is considered “large.”
⚙️ How it works
A bull gap is detected when the current bar’s low is higher than the high from two bars ago (low > high ).
A bear gap is detected when the current bar’s high is lower than the low from two bars ago (high < low ).
The lines are centered at the middle bar of the 3-bar sequence.
Gaps are only drawn within the same trading day to avoid false overnight gaps.
To prevent overlapping artifacts, up to four concurrent gap channels can be drawn efficiently using GPU-friendly plot() lines.
🔵 Midline logic
The midline (center of the gap) is only displayed when the gap’s vertical size is “large” relative to recent volatility.
“Large” means the gap height is greater than a user-defined fraction of the average bar range over the past N bars.
Example: if the average 8-bar range = 2 points, and the threshold = 0.3, then only gaps larger than 0.6 points will show the midline.
🧩 Parameters
Setting Description
Bull Gap Color / Width Style of bullish gaps (top and bottom lines).
Bear Gap Color / Width Style of bearish gaps (top and bottom lines).
Mid Gap Color / Width Style of the optional midline (shown only when “large”).
Large Gap — Lookback (bars) Number of bars used to calculate the average range (default: 8).
Large Gap — Size vs Avg Range Fraction of the average range that defines a “large” gap (default: 0.5). Set lower (e.g. 0.3) to show more midlines.
💡 Tips
Set threshold lower (0.2–0.4) for more midlines, higher (0.6–1.0) to highlight only extreme gaps.
Works best on intraday timeframes (1-min to 30-min).
Fully GPU-efficient — can scroll back thousands of bars without lag.

Flux Power Dashboard (Updated and Renamed)Flux Power Dashboard is a compact market-state heads-up display for TradingView. It blends trend, momentum, and volume-flow into a single on-chart panel with color-coded cues and minimal lag. You get:
Clean visual trend via fast/slow MA with slope/debounce filters
MACD state and most recent cross (with “freshness” tint)
OBV confirmation and gating to reduce noise
Session awareness (Asia/London/New York + pre-sessions + overlap)
Optional HTF Regime row and regime gate to align signals to higher-timeframe bias
Context from VIX/VXN (volatility regime)
A single Flux Score (0–100) as a top-level read
It is deliberately “dashboard-first”: fast to read, consistent between symbols/timeframes, and designed to limit overtrading in chop.
What it can do (capabilities)
Signal gating: You can require multiple pillars to agree (Trend, MACD, OBV) before a “strong” bias is shown.
Debounced trend: Uses slope + confirmation bars to avoid flip-flopping.
Session presets: Auto-adjust the minimum confirmation bars by session (e.g., NY vs London vs Asia) to better match liquidity/volatility.
MACD presets: Quick switch between Scalp / Classic / Slow or roll your own custom speeds.
OBV confirmation: Volume flow must agree for trend/entries to “count” (optional).
HTF Regime awareness: Shows the higher-timeframe backdrop and (optionally) gates signals so you don’t fight the dominant trend.
Volatility context: VIX/VXN auto-colored cells based on your thresholds.
Top-center Session Title: Broadcasts the active session (or Overlap) with a matched background color.
Customizable UI: Column fonts, params font, transparency, dashboard corner, marker styles, colors, widths—tune it to your chart.
Practical use: Start with Flux Score + Summary for a snapshot, confirm with Trend & MACD, check OBV agreement (implicit in signal strength), glance at Regime to avoid counter-trend trades, and use Session + VIX/VXN for timing and risk context.
How it avoids common pitfalls
Repaint-aware: “Confirm on Close” can be enabled to read prior bar states, reducing intrabar noise.
Auto MA sanity: If fast ≥ slow length, it auto-swaps under the hood to keep calculations valid.
Debounce & confirm: Trend flips only after X bars satisfy conditions, cutting false flips in chop.
Freshness tint: New Cross/Signal rows tint slightly brighter for a few bars, so you can spot recency at a glance.
Every line of the dashboard (what it shows, how it’s colored)
Flux Score
What: Composite 0–100 built from three pillars: Trend (40%), MACD (30%), OBV (30%).
Read: ≥70 Bullish, ≤30 Bearish, else Neutral.
Use: Quick “state of play” gauge—stronger alignment pushes the score toward extremes.
Regime (optional row)
What: Higher-timeframe (your Regime TF) backdrop using the same MA pair with HTF slope/ATR buffer.
Values: Bull / Bear / Range.
Gate (optional): If Regime Gate is ON, Trend/Signals only go directional when HTF agrees.
Summary
What: One-line narrative combining the three pillars: MACD (up/down/flat), OBV (up/down/flat), Trend (up/down/flat).
Use: Human-readable cross-check; should rhyme with Flux Score.
Trend
What: Debounced MA relationship on the current chart.
Strict: needs fast > slow and slow rising (mirror for down) + slope debounce + confirmation bars.
Lenient: allows fast > slow or slow rising (mirror for down) with the same debounce/confirm.
Color: Green = UP, Red = DOWN, Gray = FLAT.
Use: Your structural bias on the trading timeframe.
MACD
What: Current MACD line vs signal, using your selected preset (or custom).
Values: Bull (line above), Bear (below), Flat (equal/indeterminate).
Color: Green/Red/Gray.
Cross
What: Most recent MACD cross and how many bars ago it occurred (e.g., “MACD XUP | 3 bars”).
Freshness: If the cross happened within Fresh Signal Tint bars, the cell brightens slightly.
Use: Timing helper for inflection points.
Signal
What: Latest directional shift (from short-bias to long-bias or vice versa) and age in bars.
Strength:
Strong = Trend + MACD + OBV all align
Weak = partial alignment (e.g., Trend + MACD, or Trend + OBV)
Color: Green for long bias, Red for short bias; fresh signals tint brighter.
Use: Action cue—treat Strong as higher quality; Weak as situational.
MA
What: Your slow MA type and length, plus slope direction (“up”/“down”).
Use: Context even when Trend is FLAT; slope often turns before full trend flips.
Session
What: Current market session by Eastern Time: New York / London / Asia, Pre- windows, Overlap, or Off-hours.
Logic: If ≥2 main sessions are active, shows Overlap (and grays the top title background).
Use: Timing and expectations for liquidity/volatility; also drives session-based confirmation presets if enabled.
VIX
What: Real-time CBOE:VIX on your chosen TF.
Auto-color (if on):
Calm (< Calm) → Green
Watch (< Watch) → Yellow
Elevated (< Elevated) → Orange
Very High (≥ Elevated) → Red
Use: Equity market–wide risk mood; higher = bigger moves, lower = quieter.
VXN
What: CBOE:VXN (Nasdaq volatility index) on your chosen TF.
Auto-color thresholds like VIX.
Use: Tech-heavy risk mood; helpful for growth/QQQ/NDX names.
Footer (params row, bottom-right)
What: Key live settings so you always know the context:
P= Trend Confirmation Bars
O= OBV Confirmation Bars
Strict/Lenient (trend mode)
MACD preset (or “Custom”)
swap if MA lengths were auto-swapped for validity
Regime gate if enabled
Candles for clarity
Use: Quick integrity check when comparing charts/screenshots or changing presets.
Recommended workflow
Start at Flux Score & Summary → snapshot of alignment.
Check Trend (color) and MACD (Bull/Bear).
Look at Signal (Strong vs Weak, and age).
Glance at Regime (and use gate if you’re trend-following).
Use Session + VIX/VXN to adjust expectations (breakout vs mean-revert, risk sizing, patience).
Keep Confirm on Close ON when you want stability; turn it OFF for faster (but noisier) reads.
Notes & limitations
Not advice: This is an informational tool; always combine with your own risk rules.
Repaint vs responsiveness: With “Confirm on Close” OFF you’ll see faster state changes but may get more churn intrabar.
Presets matter: Scalp MACD reacts fastest; Slow reduces whipsaw. Choose for your timeframe.
Session windows depend on the strings you set; adjust if your broker’s feed or DST handling needs tweaks.
Grand Master's Candlestick Dominance (ATR Enhanced)### Grand Master's Candlestick Dominance (ATR Enhanced)
**Overview**
Unleash the ancient wisdom of Japanese candlestick charting with a modern twist! This comprehensive Pine Script v5 strategy and indicator scans for over 75 classic and advanced candlestick patterns (bullish, bearish, and neutral), assigning dynamic strength scores (1-10) to each for precise signal filtering. Enhanced with Average True Range (ATR) for volatility-aware body size validation, it dominates the markets by combining timeless pattern recognition with robust confirmation layers. Whether used as a backtestable strategy or visual indicator, it empowers traders to spot high-probability reversals, continuations, and indecision setups with surgical accuracy.
Inspired by Steve Nison's *Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques*, this tool elevates pattern analysis beyond basics—think Hammers, Engulfing patterns, Morning Stars, and rare gems like Abandoned Baby or Concealing Baby Swallow—all consolidated into intelligent arrays for real-time averaging and prioritization.
**Key Features**
- **Extensive Pattern Library**:
- **Bullish (25+ patterns)**: Hammer (8.0), Bullish Engulfing (10.0), Morning Star (7.0), Three White Soldiers (9.0), Dragonfly Doji (8.0), and more (e.g., Rising Three, Unique Three River Bottom).
- **Bearish (25+ patterns)**: Hanging Man (8.0), Bearish Engulfing (10.0), Evening Star (7.0), Three Black Crows (9.0), Gravestone Doji (8.0), and exotics like Upside Gap Two Crows or Stalled Pattern.
- **Neutral/Indecision (34+ patterns)**: Doji variants (Long-Legged, Four Price), Spinning Tops, Harami Crosses, and multi-bar setups like Upside Tasuki Gap or Advancing Block.
Each pattern includes duration tracking (1-5 bars) and ATR-adjusted body/shadow criteria for relevance in volatile conditions.
- **Smart Confirmation Filters** (All Toggleable):
- **Trend Alignment**: 20-period SMA (customizable) ensures entries align with the prevailing trend; optional higher timeframe (e.g., Daily) MA crossover for multi-timeframe confluence.
- **Support/Resistance (S/R)**: Pivot-based levels with 0.01% tolerance to confirm bounces or breaks.
- **Volume Surge**: 20-period volume MA with 1.5x spike multiplier to validate momentum.
- **ATR Body Sizing**: Filters small bodies (<0.3x ATR) and long bodies (>0.8x ATR) for context-aware pattern reliability.
- **Follow-Through**: Ensures post-pattern confirmation via bullish/bearish closes or closes beyond prior bars.
Minimum average strength (default 7.0) and individual pattern thresholds (5.0) prevent weak signals.
- **Entry & Exit Logic**:
- **Long Entry**: Bullish average strength ≥7.0 (outweighing bearish), uptrend, volume spike, near support, follow-through, and HTF alignment.
- **Short Entry**: Mirror for bearish dominance in downtrends near resistance.
- **Exits**: Bearish/neutral shift, or fixed TP (5%) / SL (2%)—pyramiding disabled, 10% equity sizing.
- Backtest range: Jan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2025 (editable). Initial capital: $10,000.
- **Interactive Dashboard** (Top-Right Panel):
Real-time insights including:
- Market phase (e.g., "Bullish Phase (Avg Str: 8.2)"), active pattern (e.g., "BULLISH: Bullish Engulfing (Str: 10.0, Bars: 2)"), and trend status.
- Strength breakdowns (Bull/Bear/Neutral counts & averages).
- Filter status (e.g., "Volume: ✔ Spike", "ATR: Enabled (L:0.8, S:0.3)").
- Backtest stats: Total trades, win rate, streak, and last entry/exit details (price & timestamp).
Toggle mode: Strategy (live trades) or Indicator (signals only).
- **Advanced Alerts** (15+ Toggleable Types):
Set up via TradingView's "Any alert() function call" for bar-close triggers:
- Entry/Exit signals with strength & pattern details.
- Strong patterns (≥2 bullish/bearish), neutral indecision, volume spikes.
- S/R breakouts, HTF reversals, high-confidence singles (≥8.0 strength).
- Conflicting signals, MA crossovers, ATR volatility bursts, multi-bar completions.
Example: "STRONG BULLISH PATTERN detected! Strength: 9.5 | Top Pattern: Three White Soldiers | Trend: Up".
**Customization & Usage Tips**
- **Inputs Groups**: Strategy toggles, confirmations, exits, backtest dates, and 15+ alert switches—all intuitively grouped.
- **Optimization**: Tune min strengths for aggressive (lower) or conservative (higher) trading; enable/disable filters to suit your style (e.g., disable S/R for scalping).
- **Best For**: Forex, stocks, crypto on 1H–Daily charts. Test on historical data to refine TP/SL.
- **Limitations**: No external data installs; relies on built-in TA functions. Patterns are probabilistic—combine with your risk management.

Heikin Ashi Overlay SuiteHeikin Ashi Overlay Suite is designed to give traders more control and clarity when working with Heikin Ashi candles — whether you're analyzing trend strength, reducing chart noise, or simply improving your visual read of market momentum. It works by layering multiple types of HA overlays and color systems on top of your standard candlestick chart — without switching chart types. With dynamic gradient coloring, smoothing options, and a predictive line tool, this script helps you see not just what the current trend is, but how strong it is, and what it would take to reverse it.
Heikin Ashi candles help reduce noise but this script goes further by:
➡️adding color intelligence that shows trend strength using a streak counter
➡️uses smoothing logic to clean up chop and whipsaws
➡️introduces a predictive close line — a subtle but powerful guide for anticipating trend flips before they happen
Everything is configurable: colors, candle sources, overlays, predictive tools, and line styles. It’s built for traders who want visual speed, but don’t want to sacrifice signal quality.
At its core, the script offers two powerful dropdown controls:
💥HA Color Scheme (Colors Regular Candles) — Applies Heikin Ashi-derived coloring to your regular candles based on trend direction or streak strength. This gives you instant visual context without switching to a separate chart type.
💥HA Candle Overlay Mode — Overlays actual Heikin Ashi-style candles directly on top of your chart, using your preferred source:
➡️Custom HA candles using internal formula logic
➡️TradingView’s built-in Heikin Ashi source with your own colors
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
🎨 Custom + Gradient HA Coloring🎨
See trend strength at a glance:
➡️1–4 bar streaks → lighter tone
➡️5–8 bars → medium tone
➡️9+ bars → bold tone, ideal for momentum-based entries, exits, or scaling strategies
→ Choose from:
➡️Your own custom color set
➡️A simple 2-color base mode
➡️Or a 3-level gradient for progressive trend analysis (using the streak counter)
🏛️ TradingView Official Heikin Ashi Overlay
Prefer native HA candles but want your own colors?
This mode plots TradingView's Heikin Ashi source, with your personal bullish/bearish color scheme.
➡️Ensures consistency with built-in charts while still leveraging your visual style.
🌊 Smoothed Heikin Ashi Candles — Clarity in Chaos🌊
These aren’t your standard HA candles. Smoothed Heikin Ashi uses a two-step EMA process to transform chaotic price action into a cleaner, slower-moving trend structure:
🔹 First, it smooths the raw OHLC data using EMA — filtering out minor price fluctuations.
🔹 Then, it applies the Heikin Ashi transformation on top of the smoothed data.
🔹 Finally, it applies a second EMA smoothing pass to the HA values — creating ultra-smooth candles.
📈 What You See:
Trends appear more fluid and consistent.
Choppy ranges and fakeouts are visually suppressed.
Minor pullbacks within a trend are de-emphasized, helping you avoid premature exits.
🎯 Best For:
Swing traders looking to stay in positions longer.
Intraday traders dealing with volatile or noisy instruments.
Anyone who wants a "trend map" overlay without the distractions of raw price action.
✅ Reduces whipsaws
✅ Delivers high-contrast trend zones
✅ Makes reversals more visually apparent (but with a slight lag)
📍 Predictive Close Line📍
Shows where the real close must land to flip the current HA candle's color.
✅ Use it like predictive support/resistance
✅ Know if the trend is actually at risk
✅Visualize potential fakeouts or confirmation
Color-coded based on current HA direction (bullish, bearish, or neutral).
📈 Tick by tick & bar-to-bar Plots📈
Provides 2 plot types:
1)1 plot that tracks a bar tick by tick
2)another plot that tracks the close from bar to bar
For the bar to bar plot, you can choose between 2 options:
✅Full Plot — continuous line colored by HA trend
✅Recent Segments — color just the last few bars (configurable) to reduce chart clutter
✅ Customize width, number of bars, and visibility

📘 How to Use this script📘
Imagine you're watching a choppy 15-minute chart on a volatile crypto pair — price action is messy, and it’s hard to tell if a trend is forming or just noise.
Here’s how to cut through the chaos using Heikin Ashi Overlay Suite:
🔹 Step 1: Enable "Smoothed HA Candles"
Start by turning on the smoothed candles. You’ll immediately notice the noise fades, and broader directional moves become easier to follow. It's like switching from static to clean trend zones.
🧠 Why: Smoothed HA uses a double EMA process that filters out small reversals and lets larger moves stand out. Perfect for sideways or jittery charts.
🔹 Step 2: Watch the Color Gradient Build
As the smoothed candles begin to align in one direction, the gradient coloring (1–4, 5–8, 9+ streaks) gives you an at-a-glance visual of how strong the trend is.
✅ If you see 9+ same-colored candles? You’re likely in a mature trend.
✅ If it resets often? You’re in chop — consider staying out.
🔹 Step 3: Use the Predictive Close Line for Anticipation
Now here’s the edge — this line tells you where the candle would have to close to flip colors.
📉 If price is hovering just above it during a bullish run — momentum may be weakening.
📈 If price bounces off it — the trend may be strengthening.
This is excellent for confirming entries, exits, or spotting early warning signs.
🔹 Step 4: Switch Between Candle Modes as Needed
You can flip between:
✅ Custom HA: Gradient candles with your colors
✅ TradingView HA: The official source with your styling
✅ None: Just color regular candles using the HA logic
Use what fits your style — everything is modular.
🔹 Step 5: Tune It to Your Chart
Lastly, tweak streak thresholds (currently only can do this within the source code), smoothing lengths, and line styles to match your timeframe and strategy.
🎯 Tailor The Settings to Fit Your Trading Style🎯
🔹 🧪 Scalper (1–5 min charts)
If you’re trading fast intraday moves, you want quicker responsiveness and less lag.
Try these settings:
🔸Smoothing Lengths: Use lower values (e.g. len = 3, len2 = 5)
🔸Candle Mode: Use Custom HA or TV’s HA for real-time color flips
🔸Predictive Close Line: Great for ultra-fast anticipation of color reversals
🔸Line Mode: Use Recent Segments mode to track short bursts of trend
🔸Colors: Use high-contrast, opaque colors for clarity
✅ These settings help you catch micro-trends and flip signals faster, while still filtering out the worst of the noise.
🔹 🧪 Swing Trader (30m–4h charts and beyond)
If you’re looking for multi-hour or multi-day trend confirmation, prioritize clarity and staying in moves longer.
Recommended setup:
🔸Smoothing Lengths: Medium to high values (e.g. len = 8, len2 = 21)
🔸Candle Mode: Use Smoothed HA Candles to block out intrabar chop
🔸Gradient Colors: Enable to visualize trend maturity and strength
🔸Predictive Close Line: Helps confirm trend continuation or spot early reversals
🔸Line Mode: Use Full Plot Line for clean HA-based trend tracking
✅ These settings give you a calm, clean view of the bigger picture — ideal for holding positions longer and avoiding early exits.
🔧 This script isn’t just a chart overlay — it’s a visual trend engine.🔧
Ideal For:
🔶 Trend-followers who want clean, color-coded confirmation
🔶 Reversal traders spotting exhaustion via predictive flips
🔶 Scalpers filtering noise with lighter smoothing
🔶 Swing traders using smoothed visuals to hold longer
📌 Final Note
Heikin Ashi Overlay Pro is designed to help you see momentum, trend shifts, and market structure with greater clarity — not to predict price on its own. For best results:
✔️ Combine with support/resistance, moving averages, or price action patterns
✔️ Use Predictive Close as a confirmation tool, not a signal generator
✔️ Pair gradient colors with structure to gauge trend maturity
✔️ Always zoom out and check higher timeframes for context
🧠 Use this as part of a layered approach — not a standalone system.

Bollinger Bands (SMA 21, 2.618σ)Indicator Description: Bollinger Bands (2.618σ, 21 SMA) + RSI with Fibonacci
This custom indicator combines Bollinger Bands and Relative Strength Index (RSI), enhanced with Fibonacci-based configurations, to provide confluence signals for rejection candles, reversal setups, and continuation patterns.
Bollinger Bands Settings (Customized)
Middle Band → 21-period Simple Moving Average (SMA)
Upper Band → SMA + 2.618 standard deviations
Lower Band → SMA − 2.618 standard deviations
These parameters expand the bands compared to the traditional (20, 2.0) settings, making them better suited for volatility extremes and higher timeframe swing analysis.
Color Scheme
Middle Band = Orange
Upper Band = Red
Lower Band = Green
This color-coding emphasizes key rejection levels visually.
Candle Rejection Logic
The indicator is designed to highlight potential rejection candles when price interacts with the outer Bollinger Bands:
At the Upper Band, rejection signals suggest overextension and potential downside reaction.
At the Lower Band, rejection signals suggest oversold conditions and potential upside reaction.
Rejection Candle Types Tracked
Hammer (bullish reversal, lower rejection wick at bottom band)
Inverted Hammer (bearish reversal, upper rejection wick at top band)
Doji candles (indecision at band extremes)
Double Top formations near the upper band
Double Bottom formations near the lower band
Relative Strength Index (RSI) Settings
RSI is configured with Fibonacci retracement levels instead of traditional 30/70 thresholds.
Fibonacci sequence levels used include:
23.6% (0.236)
38.2% (0.382)
50% (0.5)
61.8% (0.618)
78.6% (0.786)
This alignment with Fibonacci ratios provides deeper market structure insights into momentum strength and exhaustion points.
Trading Confluence Zones
Upper Band + RSI at 0.618–0.786 zone → High probability bearish rejection.
Lower Band + RSI at 0.236–0.382 zone → High probability bullish reversal.
Band interaction + Doji or Hammer candles → Stronger signal confirmation.
Use Cases
Identifying trend exhaustion when price repeatedly fails to break above the upper band.
Spotting accumulation or distribution phases when price consolidates around Fibonacci-based RSI zones.
Detecting false breakouts when candle patterns (like Doji or Inverted Hammer) occur beyond the bands.
Why 2.618 Deviation & 21 SMA?
Standard Bollinger Bands (20, 2.0) capture ~95% of price action.
By widening to 2.618σ, we target extreme volatility outliers — areas where reversals are statistically more likely.
A 21-period SMA aligns better with common cycle lengths (3 trading weeks on daily charts) and Fibonacci-related time cycles.
Practical Strategy
Step 1: Watch when price touches or pierces the upper/lower band.
Step 2: Check for candle rejection patterns (Hammer, Inverted Hammer, Doji, Double Top/Bottom).
Step 3: Confirm with RSI Fibonacci levels for confluence.
Step 4: Trade with the prevailing trend or look for reversal setups if multiple confluence factors align.
Cautions
Not all touches of the bands signal reversals — strong trends can ride along the bands for extended periods.
Always combine with price action structure, volume, and higher timeframe trend bias.
📌 Summary
This indicator blends volatility-based bands with Fibonacci momentum analysis and classical candle rejection patterns. The combination of Bollinger Bands (21, 2.618σ) and RSI Fibonacci levels helps traders detect high-probability rejection zones, reversal opportunities, and overextended conditions with improved accuracy over traditional default settings.
Measured Move Volume XIndicator Description
The "Measured Move Volume X" indicator, developed for TradingView using Pine Script version 6, projects potential price targets based on the measured move concept, where the magnitude of a prior price leg (Leg A) is used to forecast a subsequent move. It overlays translucent boxes on the chart to visualize bullish (green) or bearish (red) price projections, extending them to the right for a user-specified number of bars. The indicator integrates volume analysis (relative to a simple moving average), RSI for momentum, and VWAP for price-volume weighting, combining these into a confidence score to filter entry signals, displayed as triangles on breakouts. Horizontal key level lines (large, medium, small) are drawn at significant price points derived from the measured moves, with customizable thresholds, colors, and styles. Exhaustion hints, shown as orange labels near box extremes, indicate potential reversal points. Anomalous candles, marked with diamond shapes, are identified based on volume spikes and body-to-range ratios. Optional higher timeframe candle coloring enhances context. The indicator is fully customizable through input groups for lookback periods, transparency, and signal weights, making it adaptable to various assets and timeframes.
Adjustment Tips for Optimization
To optimize the "Measured Move Volume X" indicator for specific assets or timeframes, adjust the following input parameters:
Leg A Lookback (default: 14 bars): Increase to 20-30 for volatile markets (e.g., cryptocurrencies) to capture larger price swings; decrease to 5-10 for intraday charts (e.g., stocks) for faster signals.
Extend Box to the Right (default: 30 bars): Extend to 50+ for daily or weekly charts to project further targets; shorten to 10-20 for lower timeframes to reduce clutter.
Volume SMA Length (default: 20) and Relative Volume Threshold (default: 1.5): Lower the threshold to 1.2-1.3 for low-volume assets (e.g., commodities) to detect subtler spikes; raise to 2.0+ for high-volume equities to filter noise. Match SMA length to RSI length for consistency.
RSI Parameters (default: length 14, overbought 70, oversold 30): Set overbought to 80 and oversold to 20 in trending markets to reduce premature exit signals; shorten length to 7-10 for scalping.
Key Level Thresholds (default: large 10%, medium 5%, small 5%): Increase thresholds (e.g., large to 15%) for volatile assets to focus on significant moves; disable medium or small lines to declutter charts.
Confidence Score Weights (default: volume 0.5, VWAP 0.3, RSI 0.2): Increase volume weight (e.g., 0.7) for volume-driven markets like futures; emphasize RSI (e.g., 0.4) for momentum-focused strategies.
Anomaly Detection (default: volume multiplier 1.5, small body ratio 0.2, large body ratio 0.75): Adjust the volume multiplier higher for stricter anomaly detection in noisy markets; fine-tune body-to-range ratios based on asset-specific candle patterns.
Use TradingView’s replay feature to test adjustments on historical data, ensuring settings suit the chosen market and timeframe.
Tips for Using the Indicator
Interpreting Signals: Green upward triangles indicate bullish breakout entries when price exceeds the prior high with a confidence score ≥40; red downward triangles signal bearish breakouts. Use these to identify potential entry points aligned with the projected box targets.
Box Projections: Bullish boxes project upward targets (top of box) equal to the prior leg’s height added to the breakout price; bearish boxes project downward. Monitor price action near box edges for target completion or reversal.
Exhaustion Hints: Orange labels near box tops (bullish) or bottoms (bearish) suggest potential exhaustion when price deviates within the set percentage (default: 5%) and RSI or volume conditions are met. Use these as cues to watch for reversals.
Key Level Lines: Large, medium, and small lines mark significant price levels from box tops/bottoms. Use these as potential support/resistance zones, especially when drawn with high volume (colored differently).
Anomaly Candles: Orange diamonds highlight candles with unusual volume/body characteristics, indicating potential reversals or pauses. Combine with box levels for context.
Higher Timeframe Coloring: Enable to color bars based on higher timeframe candle closures (e.g., 1, 2, 5, or 15 minutes) for added trend context.
Customization: Toggle "Only Show Bullish Moves" to focus on bullish setups. Adjust transparency and line styles for visual clarity. Test settings to balance signal frequency and chart readability.
Inputs: Organized into groups (e.g., "Measured Move Settings") using input.int, input.float, input.color, and input.bool for user customization, with tooltips for clarity.
Calculations: Computes relative volume (ta.sma(volume, volLookback)), VWAP (ta.vwap(hlc3)), RSI (ta.rsi(close, rsiLength)), and prior leg extremes (ta.highest/lowest) using prior bar data ( ) to prevent repainting.
Boxes and Lines: Creates boxes (box.new) for bullish/bearish projections and lines (line.new) for key levels. The f_addLine function manages line arrays (array.new_line), capping at maxLinesCount to avoid clutter.
Confidence Score: Combines volume, VWAP distance, and RSI into a weighted score (confScore), filtering entries (≥40). Rounded for display.
Exhaustion Hints: Functions like f_plotBullExitHint assess price deviation, RSI, and volume decrease, using label.new for dynamic orange labels.
Entry Signals and Plots: plotshape displays triangles for breakouts; plot and hline show VWAP and RSI levels; request.security handles higher timeframe coloring.
Anomaly Detection: Identifies candles with small-body high-volume or large-body average-volume patterns via ratios, plotted as diamonds.
Transformer Flux DashboardHere’s a practical guide to what your Transformer Flux Dashboard does and how to use it.
What it is
A compact, two-column trading dashboard + signal pack that blends trend, MACD, and OBV into one view (“Flux Score”) and adds session awareness (pre-sessions and main sessions in Eastern time). It’s designed for regular candles by default and avoids repaint by letting you confirm on bar close.
Core pieces it calculates
Moving Averages
Two MAs: Fast (HMA/EMA) and Slow (HMA/EMA).
You choose length, line width, color, and transparency.
Trend engine (Strict/Lenient)
Uses the relation between Fast/Slow MA and a debounced fast-MA slope filter (slope > ATR×buffer).
Strict: requires fast>slow and slow rising (or the inverse for down).
Lenient: fast>slow or slow rising (or the inverse).
A confirmation window (bars) must hold true before trend flips. That window can be auto-tuned by session (Asia/London/NY) or set globally.
OBV confirmation (optional)
OBV smoothed by SMA; needs to be rising/falling for N bars (also session-aware if you enable presets).
MACD
Standard MACD Fast/Slow/Signal; the dashboard shows Bull ▲, Bear ▼ or Flat based on line vs signal.
Flux Score (top row)
A composite, smoothed gauge from 0–100:
40% Trend, 30% MACD, 30% OBV → EMA(3) smoothed.
Labels: Bullish ≥ 70, Bearish ≤ 30, otherwise Neutral.
Summary line explains why (e.g., “MACD↑, OBV↑, Trend up”).
Sessions & zones (Eastern/NY time)
Recognizes Asia / London / New York main sessions and pre-sessions using your chart’s Eastern time.
Session label (top of chart): text is white; background auto-matches the current session color (or your manual color).
Zone backgrounds (optional): off by default; when on, default transparency ≈ 95% (very light), with separate colors for each session and pre-session. A toggle lets you draw pre-session on top or beneath main sessions.
Signals & markers
Two strength tiers: Strong (Trend + OBV + MACD aligned) and Weak (2 of the 3 agree).
To reduce clutter, markers only appear on direction shifts (from last visible direction to a new one), and you can enforce a minimum bar gap.
Marker style:
Default Icons with LabelUp/LabelDown (tiny).
Colors: strong long = bright white by default; others configurable.
Weak markers are slightly offset from price using ATR so they don’t overlap wicks.
Dashboard (2-column)
Left column = label, right column = value:
Flux Score: numeric + Bullish/Neutral/Bearish tag.
Summary: short reason of the score.
Trend: UP / DOWN / FLAT (cell tinted green/red/gray).
MACD: Bull ▲ / Bear ▼ / Flat (tinted).
Signal: last printed signal + bar age (fresh signals get a lighter tint).
MA: slow MA type/length and up/down arrow.
Sess: current session label (e.g., “Pre-London”, “New York”).
VIX / VXN (optional): shows current value.
Auto tint: based on calm/watch/elevated thresholds (you control levels and colors).
Manual tint: fixed BG color if you prefer consistency.
Params: “P”=trend bars, “O”=OBV bars, mode (Strict/Lenient), and “Candles”.
You can set a global Default Transparency for the dashboard cells.
Key settings to know
Confirm On Close: when on (default), trend/OBV/MACD states use the last confirmed bar; this avoids mid-bar flicker and reduces repaint risk.
Session presets: when enabled, the number of bars required for confirmations tightens/loosens per session (e.g., Asia uses more bars than NY).
Colors & Opacity:
MA lines have their own transparency (default 0 = fully opaque).
Dashboard cells use a single global transparency (default 40%).
Session zones default to very light (95%) and are off by default.
VIX/VXN cells can auto-color by regime or use a manual background.
Markers:
“Icons” vs “Ticks.” Default is Icons with tiny labels up/down.
“Shift only” display reduces noise; you can also set min bar spacing.
How to read it (quick workflow)
Flux Score row: a fast “risk-on/off” gauge.
≥70 with green Trend/MACD cells → higher-conviction long context.
≤30 with red Trend/MACD cells → higher-conviction short context.
Summary explains why the score is what it is.
Signal row: tells you the last official signal and how many bars ago it fired. Fresh signals tint lighter.
MA row: aligns your slow baseline; arrow helps spot slow-turns early.
Sess row + label: know which market is active; behavior and your confirmation bars adapt by session if presets are on.
VIX/VXN (if enabled): extra context for risk regime (values and color band).
Good practices & caveats
It’s confirmation-based to reduce false flips; you’ll get signals slightly later, by design.
All signals are informational; there’s no position management or stops in this build (we removed the stop visuals by request).
If you switch to exotic chart types or extreme resolutions, re-tune lengths and confirmation bars (and potentially disable session presets).
For scalping, consider reducing confirmation bars and OBV smoothing; for higher timeframes, increase them.
Quick customization ideas
Want faster flips? Lower confirmBars and obvBars, increase slope buffer a bit to retain quality.
Want fewer weak signals? Show only strong markers (toggle off weak via colors/visibility or increase min bar gap).
Prefer EMA stacking? Set both Fast/Slow to EMA.
Don’t care about OBV? Turn OBV confirm off; Trend + MACD will drive
Pi Cycle OscillatorThis oscillator combines the Pi Cycle Top indicator with a percentile-based approach to create a more precise and easy to read market timing tool.
Instead of waiting for moving average crossovers, it shows you exactly how close you are to a potential market top.
Orange background means you should start preparing for a potential top and look into taking profits.
Red background means that the crossover has happened on the original Pi Cycle Indicator and that you should have already sold everything. (Crossover of the gray line aka 100)

Mikula's Master 360° Square of 12Mikula’s Master 360° Square of 12
An educational W. D. Gann study indicator for price and time. Anchor a compact Square of 12 table to a start point you choose. Begin from a bar’s High or Low (or set a manual start price). From that anchor you can progress or regress the table to study how price steps through cycles in either direction.
What you’re looking at :
Zodiac rail (far left): the twelve signs.
Degree rail: 24 rows in 15° steps from 15° up to 360°/0°.
Transit rail and Natal rail: track one planet per rail. Each planet is placed at its current row (℞ shown when retrograde). As longitude advances, the planet climbs bottom → top, then wraps to the bottom at the next sign; during retrograde it steps downward.
Hover a planet’s cell to see a tooltip with its exact longitude and sign (e.g., 152.4° ♌︎). The linked price cell in the grid moves with the planet’s row so you can follow a planet’s path through the zodiac as a path through price.
Price grid (right): the 12×24 Square of 12. Each column is a cycle; cells are stepped price levels from your start price using your increment.
Bottom rail: shows the current square number and labels the twelve columns in that square.
How the square is read
The square always begins at the bottom left. Read each column bottom → top. At the top, return to the bottom of the next column and read up again. One square contains twelve cycles. Because the anchor can be a High or a Low, you can progress the table upward from the anchor or regress it downward while keeping the same bottom-to-top reading order.
Iterate Square (shifting)
Iterate Square shifts the entire 12×24 grid to the next set of twelve cycles.
Square 1 shows cycles 1–12; Square 2 shows 13–24; Square 3 shows 25–36, etc.
Visibility rules
Pivot cells are table-bound. If you shift the square beyond those prices, their highlights won’t appear in the table.
A/B levels and Transit/Natal planetary lines are chart overlays and can remain visible on the table as you shift the square.
Quick use
Choose an anchor (date/time + High/Low) or enable a manual start price .
Set the increment. If you anchored with a Low and want the table to step downward from there, use a negative value.
Optional: pick Transit and Natal planets (one per rail), toggle their plots, and hover their cells for longitude/sign.
Optional: turn on A/B levels to display repeating bands from the start price.
Optional: enable swing pivots to tint matching cells after the anchor.
Use Iterate Square to shift to later squares of twelve cycles.
Examples
These are exploratory examples to spark ideas:
Overview layout (zodiac & degree rails, Transit/Natal rails, price grid)
A-levels plotted, pivots tinted on the table, real-time price highlighted
Drawing angles from the anchor using price & time read from the table

US Liquidity-Weighted Business Cycle📈 BTC Liquidity-Weighted Business Cycle
This indicator models the Bitcoin macro cycle by comparing its logarithmic price against a log-transformed liquidity proxy (e.g., US M2 Money Supply). It helps visualize cyclical tops and bottoms by measuring the relative expansion of Bitcoin price versus fiat liquidity.
🧠 How It Works:
Transforms both BTC and M2 using natural logarithms.
Computes a liquidity ratio: log(BTC) – log(M2) (i.e., log(BTC/M2)).
Runs MACD on this ratio to extract business cycle momentum.
Plots:
🔴 Histogram bars showing cyclical growth or contraction.
🟢 Top line to track the relative price-to-liquidity trend.
🔴 Cycle peak markers to flag historical market tops.
⚙️ Inputs:
Adjustable MACD lengths
Toggle for liquidity trend line overlay
🔍 Use Cases:
Identifying macro cycle tops and bottoms
Timing long-term Bitcoin accumulation or de-risking
Confirming global liquidity's influence on BTC price movement
Note: This version currently uses US M2 (FRED:M2SL) as the liquidity base. You can easily expand it with other global M2 sources or adjust the weights.
T-Virus Sentiment [hapharmonic]🧬 T-Virus Sentiment: Visualize the Market's DNA
Remember the iconic T-Virus vial from the first Resident Evil? That powerful, swirling helix of potential has always fascinated me. It sparked an idea: what if we could visualize the market's underlying health in a similar way? What if we could capture the "genetic code" of market sentiment and contain it within a dynamic, 3D indicator? This project is the result of that idea, brought to life with Pine Script.
The indicator's main goal is to measure the strength and direction of market sentiment by analyzing the "genetic code" of price action through a variety of trusted indicators. The result is displayed as a liquid level within a DNA helix, a bubble density representing buying pressure, and a T-Virus mascot that reflects the overall mood.
🧐 Core Concept: How It Works
The primary output of the indicator is the "Active %" gauge you see on the right side of the vial. This percentage represents the overall sentiment score, calculated as an average from 7 different technical analysis tools. Each tool is analyzed on every bar and assigned a score from 1 (strong bearish pressure) to 5 (strong bullish potential).
In this indicator, we re-imagine market dynamics through the lens of a viral outbreak. A strong bear market is like a virus taking hold, pulling all technical signals down into a state of weakness. Conversely, a powerful bull market is like an antiviral serum ; positive signals rise and spread toward the top of the vial, indicating that the system is being injected with strength.
This is not just another line on a chart. It's a comprehensive sentiment dashboard designed to give an immediate, at-a-glance understanding of the confluence between 7 classic technical indicators. The incredible 3D model of the vial itself was inspired by a design concept found here .
⚛️ The 4 Core Elements of T-Virus Sentiment
These four elements work in harmony to give a complete, multi-faceted picture of market sentiment. Each component tells a different part of the story.
The Virus Mascot: An instant emotional cue. This character provides the quickest possible read on the overall market mood, combining sentiment with volume pressure.
The Antiviral Serum Level: The main quantitative output. This is the liquid level in the DNA helix and the percentage gauge on the right, representing the average sentiment score from all 7 indicators.
Buy Pressure & Bubble Density: This visualizes volume flow. The density of bubbles represents the intensity of accumulation (buying) versus distribution (selling). It's the "power" behind the move.
The Signal Distribution: This shows the confluence (or dispersion) of sentiment. Are all signals bullish and clustered at the top, or are they scattered, indicating a conflicted market? The position of the indicator labels is crucial, as each is assigned to one of five distinct zones:
Base Bottom: The market is at its weakest. Signals here suggest strong bearish control and distribution.
Lower Zone: The market is still bearish, but signals may be showing early signs of accumulation or bottoming.
Neutral Core (Center): A state of balance or sideways consolidation. The market is waiting for a new direction.
Upper Zone: Bullish momentum is becoming clear. Signals are strengthening and showing bullish control.
Top Cap: The market is "heating up" with strong bullish sentiment, potentially nearing overbought conditions.
🐂🐻 The Virus Mascot: The At-a-Glance Indicator
This character acts as a shortcut to confirm market health. It combines the sentiment score with volume, preventing false confidence in a low-volume rally.
Its state is determined by a dual-check: the overall "Antiviral Serum Level" and the "Buy Pressure" must both be above 50%.
Green & Smiling: The 'all clear' signal. This means that not only is the overall technical sentiment bullish, but it's also being supported by real buying pressure. This is a sign of a healthy bull market.
Red & Angry: A warning sign. This appears if either the sentiment is weak, or a bullish sentiment is not being confirmed by buying volume. The latter could indicate a potential "bull trap" or an exhaustive move.
This mascot can be disabled from the settings page under "Virus Mascot Styling" if a cleaner look is preferred.
🫧 Bubble Density: Gauging Buy vs. Sell Pressure
The bubbles visualize the battle between buyers and sellers. There are two modes to control how this is calculated:
Mode 1: Visible Range (The 'Big Picture' View)
This default mode is best for getting a broad, contextual understanding of the current session. It dynamically analyzes the volume of every single candlestick currently visible on the screen to calculate the buy/sell pressure ratio. It answers the question: "Over the entire period I'm looking at, who is in control?" As you zoom in or out, the calculation adapts.
Mode 2: Custom Lookback (The 'Precision' View)
This mode is for traders who need to analyze short-term pressure. You can define a fixed number of recent bars to analyze, which is perfect for scalping or understanding the volume dynamics leading into a key level. It answers the question: "What is happening right now ?" In the example above, a lookback of 2 focuses only on the most recent action, clearly showing intense, immediate selling pressure (few bubbles) and a corresponding drop in the sentiment score to 29%.
ℹ️ Interactive Tooltips: Dive Deeper
We believe in transparency, not 'black box' indicators. This feature transforms the indicator from a visual aid into an active learning tool.
Simply hover the mouse over any indicator label (like EMA, OBV, etc.) to get a detailed tooltip. It will explain the specific data points and thresholds that signal met to be placed in its current zone. This helps build trust in the signals and allows users to fine-tune the indicator settings to better match their own trading style.
🎯 The Scoring Logic Breakdown
The "Antiviral Serum Level" gauge is the average score from 7 technical analysis tools. Each is graded on a 5-point scale (1=Strong Bearish to 5=Strong Bullish). Here’s a detailed, transparent look at how each "gene" is evaluated:
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
Measures momentum and overbought/oversold conditions.
Group 1 (Strong Bearish): RSI > 80 (Extreme Overbought)
Group 2 (Bearish): 70 < RSI ≤ 80 (Overbought)
Group 3 (Neutral): 30 ≤ RSI ≤ 70
Group 4 (Bullish): 20 ≤ RSI < 30 (Oversold)
Group 5 (Strong Bullish): RSI < 20 (Extreme Oversold)
Exponential Moving Averages (EMA)
Evaluates the trend's strength and structure based on the alignment of multiple EMAs (9, 21, 50, 100, 200, 250).
Group 1 (Strong Bearish): A perfect bearish sequence (9 < 21 < 50 < ...)
Group 2 (Bearish Transition): Early signs of a potential reversal (e.g., 9 > 21 but still below 50)
Group 3 (Neutral / Mixed): MAs are intertwined or showing a partial bullish sequence.
Group 4 (Bullish): A strong bullish sequence is forming (e.g., 9 > 21 > 50 > 100)
Group 5 (Strong Bullish): A perfect bullish sequence (9 > 21 > 50 > 100 > 200 > 250)
Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)
Analyzes the relationship between two moving averages to gauge momentum.
Group 1 (Strong Bearish): MACD & Histogram are negative and momentum is falling.
Group 2 (Weakening Bearish): MACD is negative but the histogram is rising or positive.
Group 3 (Neutral / Crossover): A crossover event is occurring near the zero line.
Group 4 (Bullish): MACD & Histogram are positive.
Group 5 (Strong Bullish): MACD & Histogram are positive, rising strongly, and accelerating.
Average Directional Index (ADX)
Measures trend strength, not direction. The score is based on both ADX value and the dominance of DI+ vs DI-.
Group 1 (Bearish / No Trend): ADX < 20 and DI- is dominant.
Group 2 (Developing Bearish Trend): 20 ≤ ADX < 25 and DI- is dominant.
Group 3 (Neutral / Indecision): Trend is weak or DI+ and DI- are nearly equal.
Group 4 (Developing Bullish Trend): 25 ≤ ADX ≤ 40 and DI+ is dominant.
Group 5 (Strong Bullish Trend): ADX > 40 and DI+ is dominant.
Ichimoku Cloud (IKH)
A comprehensive indicator that defines support/resistance, momentum, and trend direction.
Group 1 (Strong Bearish): Price is below the Kumo, Tenkan < Kijun, and Chikou is below price.
Group 2 (Bearish): Price is inside or below the Kumo, with mixed secondary signals.
Group 3 (Neutral / Ranging): Price is inside the Kumo, often with a Tenkan/Kijun cross.
Group 4 (Bullish): Price is above the Kumo with strong primary signals.
Group 5 (Strong Bullish): All signals are aligned bullishly: price above Kumo, bullish Tenkan/Kijun cross, bullish future Kumo, and Chikou above price.
Bollinger Bands (BB)
Measures volatility and relative price levels.
Group 1 (Strong Bearish): Price is below the lower band.
Group 2 (Bearish Territory): Price is between the lower band and the basis line.
Group 3 (Neutral): Price is hovering around the basis line.
Group 4 (Bullish Territory): Price is between the basis line and the upper band.
Group 5 (Strong Bullish): Price is above the upper band.
On-Balance Volume (OBV)
Uses volume flow to predict price changes. The score is based on OBV's trend and its position relative to its moving average.
Group 1 (Strong Bearish): OBV is below its MA and falling.
Group 2 (Weakening Bearish): OBV is below its MA but showing signs of rising.
Group 3 (Neutral): OBV is very close to its MA.
Group 4 (Bullish): OBV is above its MA and rising.
Group 5 (Strong Bullish): OBV is above its MA, rising strongly, and showing signs of a volume spike.
🧭 How to Use the T-Virus Sentiment Indicator
IMPORTANT: This indicator is a sentiment dashboard , not a direct buy/sell signal generator. Its strength lies in showing confluence and providing a quick, holistic view of the market's technical health.
Confirmation Tool: Use the "Active %" gauge to confirm a trade setup from your primary strategy. For example, if you see a bullish chart pattern, a high and rising sentiment score can add confidence to your trade.
Momentum & Trend Gauge: A consistently high score (e.g., > 75%) suggests strong, established bullish momentum. A consistently low score (< 25%) suggests strong bearish control. A score hovering around 50% often indicates a ranging or indecisive market.
Divergence & Warning System: Pay attention to divergences. If the price is making new highs but the sentiment score is failing to follow or is actively decreasing, it could be an early warning sign that the underlying momentum is weakening.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
The indicator is highly customizable to fit any trading style.
Position & Anchor: Control where the vial appears on the chart.
Styling (Vial, Helix, etc.): Nearly every visual element can be color-customized.
Signals: This is where the real power is. All underlying indicator parameters (RSI length, MACD settings, etc.) can be fine-tuned to match a personal strategy. The text labels can also be disabled if the chart feels cluttered.

Multi-TF Trend Table (Configurable)1) What this tool does (in one minute)
A compact, multi‑timeframe dashboard that stacks eight timeframes and tells you:
Trend (fast MA vs slow MA)
Where price sits relative to those MAs
How far price is from the fast MA in ATR terms
MA slope (rising, falling, flat)
Stochastic %K (with overbought/oversold heat)
MACD momentum (up or down)
A single score (0%–100%) per timeframe
Alignment tick when trend, structure, slope and momentum all agree
Use it to:
Frame bias top‑down (M→W→D→…→15m)
Time entries on your execution timeframe when the higher‑TF stack is aligned
Avoid counter‑trend traps when the table is mixed
2) Table anatomy (each column explained)
The table renders 9 columns × 8 rows (one row per timeframe label you define).
TF — The label you chose for that row (e.g., Month, Week, 4H). Cosmetic; helps you read the stack.
Trend — Arrow from fast MA vs slow MA: ↑ if fastMA > slowMA (up‑trend), ↓ otherwise (down‑trend). Cell is green for up, red for down.
Price Pos — One‑character structure cue:
🔼 if price is above both fast and slow MAs (bullish structure)
🔽 if price is below both (bearish structure)
– otherwise (between MAs / mixed)
MA Dist — Distance of price from the fast MA measured in ATR multiples:
XS < S < M < L < XL according to your thresholds (see §3.3). Useful for judging stretch/mean‑reversion risk and stop sizing.
MA Slope — The fast MA one‑bar slope:
↑ if fastMA - fastMA > 0
↓ if < 0
→ if = 0
Stoch %K — Rounded %K value (default 14‑1‑3). Background highlights when it aligns with the trend:
Green heat when trend up and %K ≤ oversold
Red heat when trend down and %K ≥ overbought Tooltip shows K and D values precisely.
Trend % — Composite score (0–100%), the dashboard’s confidence for that timeframe:
+20 if trendUp (fast>slow)
+20 if fast MA slope > 0
+20 if MACD up (signal definition in §2.8)
+20 if price above fast MA
+20 if price above slow MA
Background colours:
≥80 lime (strong alignment)
≥60 green (good)
≥40 orange (mixed)
<40 grey (weak/contrary)
MACD — 🟢 if EMA(12)−EMA(26) > its EMA(9), else 🔴. It’s a simple “momentum up/down” proxy.
Align — ✔ when everything is in gear for that trend direction:
For up: trendUp and price above both MAs and slope>0 and MACD up
For down: trendDown and price below both MAs and slope<0 and MACD down Tooltip spells this out.
3) Settings & how to tune them
3.1 Timeframes (TF1–TF8)
Inputs: TF1..TF8 hold the resolution strings used by request.security().
Defaults: M, W, D, 720, 480, 240, 60, 15 with display labels Month, Week, Day, 12H, 8H, 4H, 1H, 15m.
Tips
Keep a top‑down funnel (e.g., Month→Week→Day→H4→H1→M15) so you can cascade bias into entries.
If you scalp, consider D, 240, 120, 60, 30, 15, 5, 1.
Crypto weekends: consider 2D in place of W to reflect continuous trading.
3.2 Moving Average (MA) group
Type: EMA, SMA, WMA, RMA, HMA. Changes both fast & slow MA computations everywhere.
Fast Length: default 20. Shorten for snappier trend/slope & tighter “price above fast” signals.
Slow Length: default 200. Controls the structural trend and part of the score.
When to change
Swing FX/equities: EMA 20/200 is a solid baseline.
Mean‑reversion style: consider SMA 20/100 so trend flips slower.
Crypto/indices momentum: HMA 21 / EMA 200 will read slope more responsively.
3.3 ATR / Distance group
ATR Length: default 14; longer makes distance less jumpy.
XS/S/M/L thresholds: define the labels in column MA Dist. They are compared to |close − fastMA| / ATR.
Defaults: XS 0.25×, S 0.75×, M 1.5×, L 2.5×; anything ≥L is XL.
Usage
Entries late in a move often occur at L/XL; consider waiting for a pullback unless you are trading breakouts.
For stops, an initial SL around 0.75–1.5 ATR from fast MA often sits behind nearby noise; use your plan.
3.4 Stochastic group
%K Length / Smoothing / %D Smoothing: defaults 14 / 1 / 3.
Overbought / Oversold: defaults 70 / 30 (adjust to 80/20 for trendier assets).
Heat logic (column Stoch %K): highlights when a pullback aligns with the dominant trend (oversold in an uptrend, overbought in a downtrend).
3.5 View
Full Screen Table Mode: centers and enlarges the table (position.middle_center). Great for clean screenshots or multi‑monitor setups.
4) Signal logic (how each datapoint is computed)
Per‑TF data (via a single request.security()):
fastMA, slowMA → based on your MA Type and lengths
%K, %D → Stoch(High,Low,Close,kLen) smoothed by kSmooth, then %D smoothed by dSmooth
close, ATR(atrLen) → for structure and distance
MACD up → (EMA12−EMA26) > EMA9(EMA12−EMA26)
fastMA_prev → yesterday/previous‑bar fast MA for slope
TrendUp → fastMA > slowMA
Price Position → compares close to both MAs
MA Distance Label → thresholds on abs(close − fastMA)/ATR
Slope → fastMA − fastMA
Score (0–100) → sum of the five 20‑point checks listed in §2.7
Align tick → conjunction of trend, price vs both MAs, slope and MACD (see §2.9)
Important behaviour
HTF values are sampled at the execution chart’s bar close using Pine v6 defaults (no lookahead). So the daily row updates only when a daily bar actually closes.
5) How to trade with it (playbooks)
The table is a framework. Entries/exits still follow your plan (e.g., S/D zones, price action, risk rules). Use the table to know when to be aggressive vs patient.
Playbook A — Trend continuation (pullback entry)
Look for Align ✔ on your anchor TFs (e.g., Week+Day both ≥80 and green, Trend ↑, MACD 🟢).
On your execution TF (e.g., H1/H4), wait for Stoch heat with the trend (oversold in uptrend or overbought in downtrend), and MA Dist not at XL.
Enter on your trigger (break of pullback high/low, engulfing, retest of fast MA, or S/D first touch per your plan).
Risk: consider ATR‑based SL beyond structure; size so 0.25–0.5% account risk fits your rules.
Trail or scale at M/L distances or when score deteriorates (<60).
Playbook B — Breakout with confirmation
Mixed stack turns into broad green: Trend % jumps to ≥80 on Day and H4; MACD flips 🟢.
Price Pos shows 🔼 across H4/H1 (above both MAs). Slope arrows ↑.
Enter on the first clean base‑break with volume/impulse; avoid if MA Dist already XL.
Playbook C — Mean‑reversion fade (advanced)
Use only when higher TFs are not aligned and the row you trade shows XL distance against the higher‑TF context. Take quick targets back to fast MA. Lower win‑rate, faster management.
Playbook D — Top‑down filter for Supply/Demand strategy
Trade first retests only in the direction where anchor TFs (Week/Day) have Align ✔ and Trend % ≥60. Skip counter‑trend zones when the stack is red/green against you.
6) Reading examples
Strong bullish stack
Week: ↑, 🔼, S/M, slope ↑, %K=32 (green heat), Trend 100%, MACD 🟢, Align ✔
Day: ↑, 🔼, XS/S, slope ↑, %K=45, Trend 80%, MACD 🟢, Align ✔
Action: Look for H4/H1 pullback into demand or fast MA; buy continuation.
Late‑stage thrust
H1: ↑, 🔼, XL, slope ↑, %K=88
Day/H4: only 60–80%
Action: Likely overextended on H1; wait for mean reversion or multi‑TF alignment before chasing.
Bearish transition
Day flips from 60%→40%, Trend ↓, MACD turns 🔴, Price Pos “–” (between MAs)
Action: Stand aside for longs; watch for lower‑high + Align ✔ on H4/H1 to join shorts.
7) Practical tips & pitfalls
HTF closure: Don’t assume a daily row changed mid‑day; it won’t settle until the daily bar closes. For intraday anticipation, watch H4/H1 rows.
MA Type consistency: Changing MA Type changes slope/structure everywhere. If you compare screenshots, keep the same type.
ATR thresholds: Calibrate per asset class. FX may suit defaults; indices/crypto might need wider S/M/L.
Score ≠ signal: 100% does not mean “must buy now.” It means the environment is favourable. Still execute your trigger.
Mixed stacks: When rows disagree, reduce size or skip. The tool is telling you the market lacks consensus.
8) Customisation ideas
Timeframe presets: Save layouts (e.g., Swing, Intraday, Scalper) as indicator templates in TradingView.
Alternative momentum: Replace the MACD condition with RSI(>50/<50) if desired (would require code edit).
Alerts: You can add alert conditions for (a) Align ✔ changes, (b) Trend % crossing 60/80, (c) Stoch heat events. (Not shipped in this script, but easy to add.)
9) FAQ
Q: Why do I sometimes see a dash in Price Pos? A: Price is between fast and slow MAs. Structure is mixed; seek clarity before acting.
Q: Does it repaint? A: No, higher‑TF values update on the close of their own bars (standard request.security behaviour without lookahead). Intra‑bar they can fluctuate; decisions should be made at your bar close per your plan.
Q: Which columns matter most? A: For trend‑following: Trend, Price Pos, Slope, MACD, then Stoch heat for entries. The Score summarises, and Align enforces discipline.
Q: How do I integrate with ATR‑based risk? A: Use the MA Dist label to avoid chasing at extremes and to size stops in ATR terms (e.g., SL behind structure at ~1–1.5 ATR).

VN30 Effort-vs-Result Multi-Scanner — LinhVN30 Effort-vs-Result Multi-Scanner (Pine v5)
Cross-section scanner for Vietnam’s VN30 stocks that surfaces Effort vs Result footprints and related accumulation/distribution and volatility tells. It renders a ranked table (Top-N) with per-ticker signals and key metrics.
What it does
Scans up to 30 tickers (editable input.symbol slots) using one security() call per symbol → stays under Pine’s 40-call limit and runs reliably on any chart.
Scores each ticker by counting active signals, then ranks and lists the top names.
Optional metrics columns: zVol(60), zTR(60), ATR(20), HL/ATR(20).
Signals (toggleable)
Price/Volume – Effort vs Result
EVR Squeeze (stealth): z(Vol,60) > 4 & z(TR,60) < −0.5
5σ Vol, ≤1σ Ret: z(Vol,60) > 5 & |z(Return,60)| < 1
Wide Effort, Opposite Result: z(Vol,60) > 3 & close < open & z(CLV×Vol,60) > 1
Spread Compression, Heavy Tape: (H−L)/ATR(20) < 0.6 & z(Vol,60) > 3
No-Supply / No-Demand: close < close & range < 0.6×ATR(20) & vol < 0.5×SMA(20)
Momentum & Volatility
Vol-of-Vol Kink: z(ATR20,200) rising & z(ATR5,60) falling
BB Squeeze → Expansion: BBWidth(20) in low regime (z<−1.3) then close > upper band & z(Vol,60) > 2
RSI Non-Confirmation: Price LL/HH with RSI HL/LH & z(Vol,60) > 1
Accumulation/Distribution
OBV Divergence w/ Flat Price: OBV slope > 0 & |z(ret20,260)| < 0.3
Accumulation Days Cluster: ≥3/5 bars: up close, higher vol, close near high
Effort-Result Inversion (Down): big vol on down day then next day close > prior high
How to use
Set the timeframe (works best on 1D for EOD scans).
Edit the 30 symbol slots to your VN30 constituents.
Choose Top N, toggle Show metrics/Only matches and enable/disable scenarios.
Read the table: Rank, Ticker, (metrics), Score, and comma-separated Signals fired.
Method notes
Z-scores use a population-std estimate; CLV×Vol is used for effort/location.
Rolling counts avoid ta.sum; OBV is computed manually; all logic is Pine v5-safe.
Intraday-only ideas (true VWAP magnets, auction volume, flows, futures/options) are not included—Pine can’t cross-scan those datasets.
Disclaimer: Educational tool, not financial advice. Always confirm signals on the chart and with your process.

Advanced Market TheoryADVANCED MARKET THEORY (AMT)
This is not an indicator. It is a lens through which to see the true nature of the market.
Welcome to the definitive application of Auction Market Theory. What you have before you is the culmination of decades of market theory, fused with state-of-the-art data analysis and visual engineering. It is an institutional-grade intelligence engine designed for the serious trader who seeks to move beyond simplistic indicators and understand the fundamental forces that drive price.
This guide is your complete reference. Read it. Study it. Internalize it. The market is a complex story, and this tool is the language with which to read it.
PART I: THE GRAND THEORY - A UNIVERSE IN AN AUCTION
To understand the market, you must first understand its purpose. The market is a mechanism of discovery, organized by a continuous, two-way auction.
This foundational concept was pioneered by the legendary trader J. Peter Steidlmayer at the Chicago Board of Trade in the 1980s. He observed that beneath the chaotic facade of ticking prices lies a beautifully organized structure. The market's primary function is not to go up or down, but to facilitate trade by seeking a price level that encourages the maximum amount of interaction between buyers and sellers. This price is "value."
The Organizing Principle: The Normal Distribution
Over any given period, the market's activity will naturally form a bell curve (a normal distribution) turned on its side. This is the blueprint of the auction.
The Point of Control (POC): This is the peak of the bell curve—the single price level where the most trade occurred. It represents the point of maximum consensus, the "fairest price" as determined by the market participants. It is the gravitational center of the session.
The Value Area (VA): This is the heart of the bell curve, typically containing 70% of the session's activity (one standard deviation). This is the zone of "accepted value." Prices within this area are considered fair and are where the market is most comfortable conducting business.
The Extremes: The thin areas at the top and bottom of the curve are the "unfair" prices. These are levels where one side of the auction (buyers at the top, sellers at the bottom) was shut off, and trade was quickly rejected. These are areas of emotional trading and excess.
The Narrative of the Day: Balance vs. Imbalance
Every trading session is a story of the market's search for value.
Balance: When the market rotates and builds a symmetrical, bell-shaped profile, it is in a state of balance . Buyers and sellers are in agreement, and the market is range-bound.
Imbalance: When the market moves decisively away from a balanced area, it is in a state of imbalance . This is a trend. The market is actively seeking new information and a new area of value because the old one was rejected.
Your Purpose as a Trader
Your job is to read this story in real-time. Are we in balance or imbalance? Is the auction succeeding or failing at these new prices? The Advanced Market Theory engine is your Rosetta Stone to translate this complex narrative into actionable intelligence.
PART II: THE AMT ENGINE - AN EVOLUTION IN MARKET VISION
A standard market profile tool shows you a picture. The AMT Engine gives you the architect's full schematics, the engineer's stress tests, and the psychologist's behavioral analysis, all at once.
This is what makes it the Advanced Market Theory. We have fused the timeless principles with layers of modern intelligence:
TRINITY ANALYSIS: You can view the market through three distinct lenses. A Volume Profile shows where the money traded. A TPO (Time) Profile shows where the market spent its time. The revolutionary Hybrid Profile fuses both, giving you a complete picture of market conviction—marrying volume with duration.
AUTOMATED STRUCTURAL DECODING: The engine acts as your automated analyst, identifying critical structural phenomena in real-time:
Poor Highs/Lows: Weak auction points that signal a high probability of reversal.
Single Prints & Ledges: Footprints of rapid, aggressive market moves and areas of strong institutional acceptance.
Day Type Classification: The engine analyzes the session's personality as it develops ("Trend Day," "Normal Day," etc.), allowing you to adapt your strategy to the market's current character.
MACRO & MICRO FUSION: Via the Composite Profile , the engine merges weeks of data to reveal the major institutional battlegrounds that govern long-term price action. You can see the daily skirmish and the multi-month war on a single chart.
ORDER FLOW INTELLIGENCE: The ultimate advancement is the integrated Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) engine. This moves beyond structure to analyze the raw aggression of buyers versus sellers. It is your window into the market's soul, automatically detecting critical Divergences that often precede major trend shifts.
ADAPTIVE SIGNALING: The engine's signal generation is not static; it is a thinking system. It evaluates setups based on a multi-factor Confluence Score , understands the market Regime (e.g., High Volatility), and adjusts its own confidence ( Probability % ) based on the complete context.
This is not a tool that gives you signals. This is a tool that gives you understanding .
PART III: THE VISUAL KEY - A LEXICON OF MARKET STRUCTURE
Every element on your chart is a piece of information. This is your guide to reading it fluently.
--- THE CORE ARCHITECTURE ---
The Profile Histogram: The primary visual on the left of each session. Its shape is the story. A thin profile is a trend; a fat, symmetrical profile is balance.
Blue Box : The zone of accepted, "fair" value. The heart of the session's business.
Bright Orange Line & Label : The Point of Control. The gravitational center. The price of maximum consensus. The most significant intraday level.
Dashed Blue Lines & Labels : The boundaries of value. Critical inflection points where the market decides to either remain in balance or seek value elsewhere.
Dashed Cyan Lines & Labels : The major, long-term structural levels derived from weeks of data. These are institutional reference points and carry immense weight. Treat them as primary support and resistance.
Dashed Orange Lines & Labels : Marks a Poor or Unfinished Auction . These represent emotional, weak extremes and are high-probability targets for future price action.
Diamond Markers : Mark Single Prints , which are footprints of aggressive, one-sided moves that left a "liquidity vacuum." Price is often drawn back to these levels to "repair" the poor structure.
Arrow Markers : Mark Ledges , which are areas of strong horizontal acceptance. They often act as powerful support/resistance in the future.
Dotted Gray Lines & Labels : The projected daily range based on multiples of the Initial Balance . Use them to set realistic profit targets and gauge the day's potential.
--- THE SIGNAL SUITE ---
Colored Triangles : These are your high-probability entry signals. The color is a strategic playbook:
Gold Triangle : ELITE Signal. An A+ setup with overwhelming confluence. This is the highest quality signal the engine can produce.
Yellow Triangle : FADE Signal. A counter-trend setup against an exhausted move at a structural extreme.
Cyan Triangle : BREAKOUT Signal. A momentum setup attempting to capitalize on a breakout from the value area.
Purple Triangle : ROTATION Signal. A mean-reversion setup within the value area, typically from one edge towards the POC.
Magenta Triangle : LIQUIDITY Signal. A sophisticated setup that identifies a "stop run" or liquidity sweep.
Percentage Number: The engine's calculated probability of success . This is not a guarantee, but a data-driven confidence score.
Dotted Gray Line: The signal's Entry Price .
Dashed Green Lines: The calculated Take Profit Targets .
Dashed Red Line: The calculated Stop Loss level.
PART IV: THE DASHBOARD - YOUR STRATEGIC COMMAND CENTER
The dashboard is your real-time intelligence briefing. It synthesizes all the engine's analysis into a clear, concise, and constantly updating summary.
--- CURRENT SESSION ---
POC, VAH, VAL: The live values for the core structure.
Profile Shape: Is the current auction top-heavy ( b-shaped ), bottom-heavy ( P-shaped ), or balanced ( D-shaped )?
VA Width: Is the value area expanding (trending) or contracting (balancing)?
Day Type: The engine's judgment on the day's personality. Use this to select the right strategy.
IB Range & POC Trend: Key metrics for understanding the opening sentiment and its evolution.
--- CVD ANALYSIS ---
Session CVD: The raw order flow. Is there more net buying or selling pressure in this session?
CVD Trend & DIVERGENCE: This is your order flow intelligence. Is the order flow confirming the price action? If "DIVERGENCE" flashes, it is a critical, high-alert warning of a potential reversal.
--- MARKET METRICS ---
Volume, ATR, RSI: Your standard contextual metrics, providing a quick read on activity, volatility, and momentum.
Regime: The engine's assessment of the broad market environment: High Volatility (favor breakouts), Low Volatility (favor mean reversion), or Normal .
--- PROFILE STATS, COMPOSITE, & STRUCTURE ---
These sections give you a quick quantitative summary of the profile structure, the major long-term Composite levels, and any active Poor Structures.
--- SIGNAL TYPES & ACTIVE SIGNAL ---
A permanent key to the signal colors and their meanings, along with the full details of the most recent active signal: its Type , Probability , Entry , Stop , and Target .
PART V: THE INPUTS MENU - CALIBRATING YOUR LENS
This engine is designed to be calibrated to your specific needs as a trader. Every input is a lever. This is not a "one size fits all" tool. The extensive tooltips are your built-in user manual, but here are the key areas of focus:
--- MARKET PROFILE ENGINE ---
Profile Mode: This is the most fundamental choice. Volume is the standard for price-based support and resistance. TPO is for analyzing time-based acceptance. Hybrid is the professional's choice, fusing both for a complete picture.
Profile Resolution: This is your zoom lens. Lower values for scalping and intraday precision. Higher values for a cleaner, big-picture view suitable for swing trading.
Composite Sessions: Your timeframe for macro analysis. 5-10 sessions for a weekly view; 20-30 sessions for a monthly, structural view.
--- SESSION & VALUE AREA ---
These settings must be configured correctly for your specific asset. The Session times are critical. The Initial Balance should reflect the key opening period for your market (60 minutes is standard for equities).
--- SIGNAL ENGINE & RISK MANAGEMENT ---
Signal Mode: THIS IS YOUR PERSONAL RISK PROFILE. Set it to Conservative to see only the absolute best A+ setups. Use Elite or Balanced for a standard approach. Use Aggressive only if you are an experienced scalper comfortable with managing more frequent, lower-probability setups.
ATR Multipliers: This suite gives you full, dynamic control over your risk/reward parameters. You can precisely define your initial stop loss distance and profit targets based on the market's current volatility.
A FINAL WORD FROM THE ARCHITECT
The creation of this engine was a journey into the very heart of market dynamics. It was born from a frustrating truth: that the most profound market theories were often confined to books and expensive institutional platforms, inaccessible to the modern retail trader. The goal was to bridge that gap.
The challenge was monumental. Making each discrete system—the volume profile, the TPO counter, the composite engine, the CVD tracker, the signal generator, the dynamic dashboard—work was a task in itself. But the true struggle, the frustrating, painstaking process that consumed countless hours, was making them work in unison . It was about ensuring the CVD analysis could intelligently inform the signal engine, that the day type classification could adjust the probability scores, and that the composite levels could provide context to the intraday structure, all in a seamless, real-time dance of data.
This engine is the result of that relentless pursuit of integration. It is built on the belief that a trader's greatest asset is not a signal, but clarity . It was designed to clear the noise, to organize the chaos, and to present the elegant, underlying logic of the market auction so that you can make better, more informed, and more confident decisions.
It is now in your hands. Use it not as a crutch, but as a lens. See the market for what it truly is.
"The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent."
- John Maynard Keynes

KAP RSI 14 & 2 (fixe)What does this indicator do?
It calculates two different RSIs:
The classic RSI with a 14-period (RSI 14) — measures the strength of price moves over 14 bars.
A faster RSI with a 2-period (RSI 2) — very sensitive, useful to spot short-term extreme conditions.
It displays these two RSI values in a fixed table at the top right corner of the chart, so the dashboard stays visible even when you scroll or zoom.
Each RSI value is colored:
Red when the RSI is at extreme levels (RSI 14 above 75 or below 30, RSI 2 above 95 or below 5), signaling overbought or oversold conditions.
Green when RSI is in a normal range.
Why is it useful?
It lets you quickly see the market’s condition with two RSI timeframes without searching the chart.
You monitor both medium-term trend strength (RSI 14) and short-term extreme signals (RSI 2).
The fixed dashboard makes it easy to keep an eye on these values at all times.
Customization options
You can choose which corner of the screen to place the dashboard (top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right).

Investor Tool - Z ScoreThe Investor Tool is intended as a tool for long term investors, indicating periods where prices are likely approaching cyclical tops or bottoms. The tool uses two simple moving averages of price as the basis for under/overvalued conditions: the 2-year MA (green) and a 5x multiple of the 2-year MA (red).
Price trading below the 2-year MA has historically generated outsized returns, and signalled bear cycle lows.
Price trading above the 2-year MA x5 has been historically signalled bull cycle tops and a zone where investors de-risk.
Just like the Glassnode one, but here on TV and with StDev bands
Now with Z-SCORE calculation:
The Z-Score is calculated to be -3 Z at the bottom bands and 3 Z at the top bands
mean = (upper_sma + bottom_sma) / 2
bands_range = upper_sma - bottom_sma
stdDev = bands_range != 0 ? bands_range / 6 : 0
zScore = stdDev != 0 ? (close - mean) / stdDev : 0

PipsHunters Trading ChecklistTitle: PipsHunters Trading Checklist (PHTC)
Short Description / Teaser:
Enforce trading discipline and never miss a step in your pre-trade analysis with this simple, interactive, on-chart checklist.
Full Description:
🚀 Overview
The PipsHunters Trading Checklist (PHTC) is a powerful yet simple tool designed to instill discipline and structure into your trading routine. In the heat of the moment, it's easy to forget crucial steps of your analysis, leading to impulsive and low-probability trades. This indicator acts as your personal co-pilot, providing a persistent, on-chart checklist that you must manually complete before taking a trade.
This is not an automated signal generator. It is a utility to keep you accountable to your own trading plan. The checklist items are inspired by common concepts in price action and Smart Money Concepts (SMC) methodologies, but they serve any trader who follows a rule-based system.
✨ Key Features
Interactive On-Chart Table: Displays a clean, non-intrusive table directly on your chart.
Manual Check-off System: You are in full control. Go into the indicator settings and check off each item as you complete your analysis.
Real-Time Progress Tracking: The table header shows your progress (e.g., 4/7) and changes color from red to green when all items are checked.
Clear Visual Cues: Each item is marked with a ✅ or ❌, and the text color changes to provide an at-a-glance status.
"Ready!" Status: A final "READY!" confirmation appears once your entire checklist is complete, giving you the green light to look for an entry based on your strategy.
Fully Customizable Position: Place the table in any corner of your chart (Top Left, Top Right, Bottom Left, Bottom Right) to suit your layout.
📋 The Checklist Items Explained
The default checklist guides you through a structured, top-down analysis process common in many trading strategies:
Seat before 1H: A reminder to be settled and mentally prepared at your desk at least an hour before your target session begins. Avoids rushing and emotional decisions.
Check News: Have you checked for high-impact news events that could introduce extreme volatility and invalidate your setup?
Mark Day Open: The daily open is a key institutional level. Marking it helps establish the daily bias.
Mark LQ Levels: Have you identified key Liquidity (LQ) levels? This includes previous day/week highs and lows, session highs/lows, and other obvious swing points.
Wait for Kill Zone: A reminder to be patient and wait for price to trade into a specific, high-probability time window (e.g., London Kill Zone, New York Kill Zone).
LQ sweep inside Kill Zone: The core of the setup. Has price swept a key liquidity level within your chosen Kill Zone?
Lower TF Confirmations: After the liquidity sweep, have you waited for confirmation on a lower timeframe? This is often a Market Structure Shift (MSS) or Change of Character (CHoCH).
🛠️ How to Use
Add the "PipsHunters Trading Checklist" indicator to your chart.
Go to the indicator's Settings (click the gear icon ⚙️).
As you perform each step of your pre-trade analysis, tick the corresponding checkbox in the Inputs tab.
The on-chart table will update instantly to reflect your progress.
Only when all 7 items are checked will the table signal "READY!".
🎯 Who Is This For?
This indicator is perfect for:
SMC / ICT Traders: The checklist items align directly with Smart Money Concepts.
New Traders: Helps build the essential habit of a consistent pre-trade routine.
Inconsistent Traders: Acts as a guardrail to prevent impulsive, undisciplined entries.
Any Rule-Based Trader: Anyone who follows a trading plan can benefit from the structure it provides.
Disclaimer: This is a utility tool to aid in discipline and execution. It does not provide financial advice or guarantee profitable trades. All trading involves risk, and you are solely responsible for your own decisions. Trade safe and stay disciplined!
TZtraderTZtrader
This is a TrendZones version with features to set stoploss and targets in short and long positions meant for use in intraday charts. It aims to provide signals for opening and closing long and short positions. In the comments under the TrendZones publication several people expressed a need for features for a short position similar to those for a long position as implemented in TrendZones, some want to use it for scalping, some asked for alerts. When I proposed to create a version for day trading with target lines based on ATR, several people liked the idea.
Full disclosure: I don’t do day trading, because, after I lost a lot of money, I had to promise my wife to stay away from it. I restrict myself to long term investing in stocks which are in uptrend. However I understand what a day trader needs. I gather from my experience that day trading or scalping is an attempt to earn something by opening a position in the morning and close, reopen and close it again during the day with a profit. It is usually done with leveraged instruments like CFD’s, futures, options, and what have you. Opening and closing positions is done within minutes, so the trader needs a quick and efficient way to set proper stoploss and target. TZtrader supports this by showing only three or four numbers on the price bar: The price of the instrument, The logical stop level (gray or green or maroon dots), and the target level (navy). All other numbers are suppressed to prevent mistakes. Also a clear feedback for current settings at the top-center of the pane and an alert feedback at bottom that flashes alerts during the development of the current bar and gives suppression status.
The script
First I made a bare bones version of TrendZones to which I added code for long and short trading setups and a bare setup for no position. The code for the logical stops in long setup had to be reviewed, after which this became the basis for stops in short setup.
Then I added code for 10 alert messages, which was a hassle, because this is the first time I coded alerts and the first time I used an array as a stack to avoid a complicated if-then construction. During testing the array caused a runtime error which I solved by adding ‘array.clear’ to the code, also I discovered that in TradingView separate alerts have to be created for all three setups - short, long and bare. Flipping setups is done in the inputs with a dropdown menu because Pine Script has no function for a clickable button.
One visual with three setups.
The visual has the TrendZones structure: Three near parallel very smooth curves, which border the moderate uptrend (green) and downtrend (orange) zone over and under the curve in the middle, the COG (Center Of Gravity). Where the price breaks out of these curves, strong trend zones show up over and under the curves, respectively strong uptrend (blue) and strong downtrend (red).
Three setups were made clearly different to avoid confusion and to provide oversight in case of multiple trades going on simultaneously which I imagine are monitored in one screen. You have to see which one is long, which short and which have no position. The long setup should not trigger short signals, nor should the short trigger long signals nor the bare setup exclusive long or short signals.
The Long setup is default, shown on the example chart. In this setup the Stoploss suggestions (green, gray and maroon dots) are under the price bars and the target line (navy) at a set distance above the High Border. A zone with a width of 1 ATR is drawn under the Low Border. In this setup 5 specific alerts are provided
The Short setup has the Stoploss suggestions over the price bars, the target line at a set distance under the Low Border. A zone with a width of 1 ATR is drawn above the High Border. This setup also has 5 specific alerts.
The Bare setup has no Stoploss suggestions, no target line and supports 4 alerts, 2 in common with the Long setup and 2 with Short.
The table below gives a summary of scripted alerts:
Setup = Where = When = Purpose
Long, Bare = Green Zone = Bars come from lower zones = Uptrend starts
Long, Bare = Green Zone = Sideways ends in uptrend = Uptrend resumes
Long = COG = First crossing = Uptrend might end warning
Long = Orange Zone = Bars come from higher zones = Uptrend ended take care
Long = Red Zone = Bars come from higher zones = Strong downtrend->close Long
Short, Bare = Orange Zone = Bars come from higher zones = Downtrend starts
Short, Bare = Orange Zone = Sideways ends in downtrend = Downtrend resumes
Short = COG = First crossing = Downtrend might end warning
Short = Green Zone = Bars come from lower zones = Downtrend ended take care
Short = Blue Zone = Bars come from lower zones = Strong uptrend -> close short
You can use script alerts in TradingView by clicking the clock in the sidebar, then ‘create alert’ or plus, as condition you choose ‘Tztrader’ in the dialog box, then the “Any alert() function call” option (the first item in the list). The script lets the valid alert trigger by TradingView after the bar is completed, this can differ from the flashed messages during its formation.
When you create alerts in Tradingview, I advice to do that for each setup, then to make only the alert active which matches the current setup, pause the other ones.
Suppressing false and annoying signals
The script has two ways to suppress such signals, which have to do with the numbers in the alert feedback. The numbers left and right of the message with a colored background, depict the zones in which the previous (left) and current (right) bar move. 1 is the strong downtrend zone (red), 2 the moderate downtrend zone (orange), 3 the sideways zones (gray), 4 the COG (gray), 5 the moderate uptrend zone (green), 6 the strong uptrend zone (blue), 7 something went wrong with assigning a zone (black). In extensive testing the number 7 never occurs, because I catch that error in the code. The idea is that an alert is only triggered if the previous bar was in a different zone. When the bars are in the same zone, no alert is possible. This way all annoying signals are suppressed and long, short and bare get the appropriate alerts.
The third number is a counter. It counts how often the COG is crossed without touching the outer curves. The counter will reset to zero when the upper or lower curve is touched. When the count is 1 you have zone situation 4 and appropriate alerts are flashed. When the count is 2 or higher, a sideways situation (3) is called and while the recrossings are going on, no alerts can be flashed. This suppresses false signals. The ATR zone and curves are brownish-gray where sideways happens(ed). When the channel is narrowed down to just the three curves, some false signals still might occur.
Inputs
“Setup”, default is long, drop down menu provides long, short and bare.
“Target ATR”, default is 2, sets the amount of ATR for the target line. In 1 minute charts 4 seems an appropriate setting, you have to learn by experience which setting works.
“show feedback …” default is on, This creates two feedback labels, a Setup feedback on top of the pane, which shows charted instrument, Setup type, Trend and timeframe of the chart. Background color of Trend feedback is green when it matches the setup, red when mismatches and gray when no match. The alert feedback at the bottom of the pane shows a number, a message and two numbers. The numbers will be explained in the chapter about false and annoying signals below. During formation of the bar, valid alerts are flashed with a blue background, otherwise the message ‘alerts for current bar suppressed’.
Logical Stops
The curves are the logical place to put stops, because, as these are averages of the high and low border of a Donchian channel, they signify the ‘natural’ current highest, lowest and main level in the lookback period that fit the monitored trend setup. A downtrend turns into an uptrend when a breakout of the upper curve occurs. If you are short, that is where you want to close position, so the logical place for the stoploss is the upper curve. Vice versa, when you are long, the logical stop is on the lower curve. The stops show up as green or gray dots on the curves, the green dots signify a nice entry level, the gray stops are there to suggest levels where unrealized profits might be secured, the maroon dots indicate that the trend mismatches the setup.
COG versus other lines
Any line used to identify a trend, be it some MA or some other line, is interpreted the same way: When the bars move above the line there is an uptrend and when below, a downtrend. COG is not different in that sense. If you put such a line in the same chart as TZtrader, you can see situations in which the other line shows uptrend or downtrend earlier than COG, also some other lines, e.g. Hull MA, are very good at showing tops and bottoms, while COG ignores these. On the other hand the other lines are usually a little nervous and let you shake out of position too soon. Just like the other lines, COG gives false signals when it is near horizontal. The advantage of the placement COG is the tolerance for pull backs. This way TZtrader keeps you longer in the trend. Such pull backs are often ‘flags’ which are interpreted in TA as confirming the trend. Tztrader aims to get you in position reasonably soon when a trend begins and out of position as soon as the trend turns against you. The placement of COG is done with a fundamentally different algorithm than other lines as it is not an average of prices, but the middle of two averages of borders of a Donchian channel. This gives the two zones between the curves the same quality as the two zones above and below the middle line of a standard Donchian Channel.
A multi timeframe application.
In this scenario you put a 5 minutes and 1 minute chart with Tztrader side by side. If the 5 minutes shows uptrend, set the 1 minute on long trading and open positions when the trend matches uptrend en close when it mismatches. Don’t open short positions. Once the 5 minute changes to downtrend, set Tztrader in the 1 minute to short trading and open positions when the trend matches downtrend and close when it mismatches.
The idea is that in a long ‘context’, provided by the 5 minutes, the uptrends in the 1 minute will last longer and go further, vice versa for the short ‘context’. This way you do swing trading in the 5 minute in a smart way, maximizing profits.
You can do this with any timeframe pairs with a proportion of around 5:1, 4:1, 6:1, like e.g. 60 minutes and 15 minutes or weeks and days (5 trading days in a week).
Dear day-traders, may this tool be helpful and may your days be blessed.

ATR Plots + OverlayATR Plots + Overlay
This tool calculates and displays Average True Range (ATR)-based levels on your chart for any selected timeframe, giving traders a quick visual reference for expected price movement relative to the most recent bar’s open price. It plots guide levels above and below that open and shows how much of the typical ATR-based range has already been covered—all in one interactive table and on-chart overlay.
What It Does
ATR Calculation:
Uses true range data over a user-defined period (default 14), smoothed via RMA, SMA, EMA, or WMA, on the selected timeframe (e.g., 1h, 4h, daily) to calculate the ATR value.
Projected Levels:
Plots four reference levels relative to the open price of the most recent bar on the chosen timeframe:
+100% ATR: Open + ATR
+50% ATR: Open + 50% of ATR
−50% ATR: Open − 50% of ATR
−100% ATR: Open − ATR
Coverage %:
Tracks high and low prices for the current session on the selected timeframe and calculates what percentage of the ATR has already been covered:
Coverage % = (High − Low) ÷ ATR × 100
Interactive Table:
Shows the ATR value and current coverage percentage in a customizable table overlay. Position, color scheme, borders, transparency, and an optional empty top row are all adjustable via settings.
Customization Options
Table Settings:
Position the table (top/bottom × left/right).
Customize background color, text color, border color, and thickness.
Optionally add an empty top row for spacing.
Line Settings:
Choose color, line style (solid/dotted/dashed), and width.
Lines automatically update with each new bar on the selected timeframe, anchored to that bar’s open price.
General Inputs:
ATR length (number of bars).
Smoothing method (RMA, SMA, EMA, WMA).
Timeframe selection for ATR calculations (e.g., 15m, 1h, Daily).
How to Use It for Trading
Measure Volatility: Quickly gauge the expected price movement based on ATR for any timeframe.
Identify Overextension: Use the coverage % to see how much of the expected ATR range is already consumed.
Plan Entries & Exits: Align trade targets and stops with ATR levels for more objective planning.
Visual Reference: Horizontal guide lines and table update automatically as new bars form, keeping information clear and actionable.
Ideal For
Intraday traders using ATR levels to frame trades.
Swing traders wanting ATR-based reference points for larger timeframes.
Anyone seeking a volatility-based framework for planning stops, targets, or identifying overextended conditions.
