- **No Time Aggregation**: Pure price/volume action
- **Institutional Footprint**: Catch block trades instantly
- **Maximum IB Precision**: Most accurate delta/momentum
**Best Tick Settings by Instrument:**
| Instrument | Chart TF | Recommended Tick IB |
|------------|----------|---------------------|
| YM | 5 min | 100T or 250T |
| NQ | 5 min | 50T or 100T (more liquid) |

| GC | 5 min | 100T or 250T |
| BTC | 15 min | 250T or 500T |
## ⚠️ CRITICAL RULE
**Intrabar TF MUST be LOWER than your chart TF!**
### Automatic Validation (v8 NEW!)
The script now automatically detects invalid intrabar configurations:
**When Intrabar TF is INVALID:**
1. **Yellow warning label** appears on chart: "⚠️ INTRABAR TF INVALID"
2. **Table shows**: "IB Data: ⚠️ INVALID TF" with yellow background
3. **Alert available**: "⚠️ INTRABAR CONFIG ERROR"
4. **Score impact**: Intrabar points (up to 5) are NOT added
**Example - 2 Minute Chart:**
```
VALID selections: 1T, 5T, 10T, 25T, 50T, 100T (any tick)
1S, 5S, 10S, 15S, 30S (any second)
1 (1-minute only)
INVALID selections: 2, 3, 5, 10, 15... (2min or higher)
D, W, M (obviously)
```
| Your Chart | Valid Intrabar Options |
|------------|------------------------|
| **2 minute** | **1T-1000T, 1S-30S, 1 only** |
| 5 minute | 1T-1000T, 1S-30S, 1-4 min |
| 15 minute | 1T-1000T, 1S-30S, 1-10 min |
| 1 hour | 1T-1000T, 1S-30S, 1-45 min |
| 4 hour | 1T-1000T, 1S-30S, 1-180 min |
| Daily | All tick, seconds, minutes up to 240 |

# 🎨 VISUAL FILTERING (v8 NEW!)
## The Problem (v7)
Too many sweep and absorption markers cluttered the chart with low-quality signals.
## The Solution (v8)
**Quality filters** - only show sweeps/absorption that MATTER.
### Sweep Quality Score
A sweep needs confluence to display:
```
+1.5 = In FVG Zone
+1.5 = In Order Block
+1.0 = Strong volume
+0.5 = In session
+1.0 = Intrabar confirmation
───────────────────
MIN NEEDED: 2.0 to show
```
### Absorption Quality Score
```
+1.5 = In FVG Zone
+1.5 = In Order Block
+1.0 = Tier signal present
+0.5 = In session
+0.5 = CVD confirmation
───────────────────
MIN NEEDED: 2.0 to show
```
### Settings
```
VISUAL FILTERS:
├── Only Show Quality Sweeps: ON (default)
├── Only Show Quality Absorption: ON (default)
├── Min Sweep Quality Score: 2.0
└── Min Absorption Quality Score: 2.0
Turn OFF filters to see ALL signals (not recommended)
```
---
# 📈 CVD IMPLEMENTATION (v8 FIXED)
## What Changed
### v7 Issues:
- CVD accumulated forever (overflow risk)
- Short slope calculation (only 3 bars)
- No session reset
### v8 Fixes:
```
1. SESSION RESET: CVD resets at London/NY open
2. PROPER SLOPE: Calculated over 5 bars
3. STDEV COMPARISON: Strong/Extreme = slope > 1-2 stdev
```
## CVD Readings in Table
| Display | Meaning | Score Contribution |
|---------|---------|-------------------|
| 🔥 BULL | Extreme bullish momentum | +1.5 total |
| 🔥 BEAR | Extreme bearish momentum | +1.5 total |
| ↑ BULL | Strong bullish trend | +1.0 total |
| ↓ BEAR | Strong bearish trend | +1.0 total |
| bull | Bullish bias | +0.5 |
| bear | Bearish bias | +0.5 |
| — | Neutral/mixed | +0 |

# ✅ ENTRY CHECKLIST v8
## Quick Checklist (Print This!)
### For ANY Signal:
- Score ≥ 3.5 (signal shown)
- Session active (🟢 in table)
- Direction matches bias
### For MEDIUM+ Signal (Score 5.0+):
- Delta matches direction (✓ or better)
- CVD trending with signal
- Volume ≥ 1.5x average
### For EXCELLENT Signal (Score 7.0+):
All above PLUS:

- IB Delta confirms direction
### For GOD MODE (Score 8.5+):
All above PLUS:
- Multiple structure confluence (FVG + OB)
- Absorption or sweep present
- IB Momentum strong (🔥)
- **FULL SIZE - DON'T HESITATE**
---
# ⛔ DO NOT TRADE
1. **Score below threshold** - No signal shown = no trade
2. **Outside session** - Unless you've disabled session filter
3. **Delta conflicts** - Bearish candle but buy dominant delta
4. **No intrabar data** - Shows "0 bars" in IB Data
5. **CVD strongly opposite** - 🔥 BEAR on a long signal
6. **After major news** - Wait for dust to settle
7. **Low volume overall** - Market too quiet
---
# 🏆 GOLDEN RULES v8
> **"The score doesn't lie. Trust the math."**
> **"GOD MODE = Don't think, just execute."**
> **"Filtered visuals = Quality over quantity."**
> **"If intrabar conflicts, trust intrabar."**
> **"Session matters - trade when institutions trade."**
> **"Stack confluence - score higher = win more."**
> **"Leave every trade with money. Next setup is coming."**

# 🔧 TROUBLESHOOTING
| Issue | Solution |
|-------|----------|
| **Yellow "INVALID TF" warning** | Your intrabar TF is >= chart TF. Select LOWER! |
| **IB Data shows "⚠️ INVALID TF"** | Same as above - pick 1T, 1S, or 1 for most charts |
| No signals appearing | Lower Min Score threshold |
| Too many signals | Raise Min Score threshold |
| Score always 0 | Check if candle is tiered (meets point threshold) |
| Sweeps not showing | Check quality filter settings or lower threshold |
| Table transparent | ❌ Fixed in v8 - table is now solid |
| CVD not making sense | Now resets at session open - cleaner readings |
| Wrong tier thresholds | Adjust for your instrument (see setup guide) |
| Tick TF not available | Requires TradingView Premium+ subscription |

# 🎨 VISUAL FILTERING (v8 NEW!)
## The Problem (v7)
Too many sweep and absorption markers cluttered the chart with low-quality signals.
## The Solution (v8)
**Quality filters** - only show sweeps/absorption that MATTER.
### Sweep Quality Score
A sweep needs confluence to display:
```
+1.5 = In FVG Zone
+1.5 = In Order Block
+1.0 = Strong volume
+0.5 = In session
+1.0 = Intrabar confirmation
───────────────────
MIN NEEDED: 2.0 to show
```
### Absorption Quality Score
```
+1.5 = In FVG Zone
+1.5 = In Order Block
+1.0 = Tier signal present
+0.5 = In session
+0.5 = CVD confirmation
───────────────────
MIN NEEDED: 2.0 to show
```
### Settings
```
VISUAL FILTERS:
├── Only Show Quality Sweeps: ON (default)

MACD Above Signal & Price Above VWAP IndicatorThis strategy provides a buy signal with a green arrow pointing up when three conditions are met. The MACD has to be above the signal line. The settings for MACD can be adjusted, but the default is the standard settings for MACD. The second condition is the price has to be above the VWAP line. The third condition is that the price of the current candle needs to be higher than the HIGH price of the previous candle.
XAUUSD Macro Anomaly Pulses (Chart XAU) - sudoXAUUSD Macro Anomaly Pulses
A simple pulse indicator that highlights when XAUUSD moves in a way that macro conditions cannot fully explain
Overview
This indicator marks candles on XAUUSD that behave differently than what the broader market suggests should happen.
Instead of looking at XAUUSD alone, this tool compares gold’s actual movement to an expected movement based on:
Other gold cross pairs (XAUJPY, XAUAUD, XAUCHF)
The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), inverted
The US30 index (Dow Jones)
When XAUUSD moves much stronger or weaker than this macro-based expectation, the indicator plots a small pulse (a circle) directly on the candle.
Purpose
This indicator helps you quickly see when a candle on XAUUSD is acting “out of character” compared to normal macro flow. In other words:
“Did XAUUSD move in a way that makes sense with the rest of the market, or did something weird happen?”
These unusual moves often signal:
Liquidity grabs
Stop hunts
News-driven spikes
False breakouts
Front-running of macro shifts
How It Works
It reads the XAUUSD candles directly from the chart.
This ensures pulses stick to your candles correctly.
It pulls data from basket legs (XAUJPY, XAUAUD, XAUCHF) and macro symbols (DXY, US30) using security calls.
It converts each symbol into a simple % return per candle.
It builds an “expected” gold move using weighted inputs:
Average return of gold crosses
Inverse return of DXY
Return of US30
It calculates the “residual,” which means:
actual XAU return - expected macro return
It turns that into a Z-score to measure how extreme the deviation is.
If the Z-score is too high or too low, the script marks the candle:
Aqua pulse below bar = unusually strong move
Fuchsia pulse above bar = unusually weak move
How to Interpret the Pulses
Aqua Pulse (below candle) – Bullish anomaly
XAUUSD moved stronger than the macro environment suggests.
Meaning:
-Possible liquidity grab upward
-Possible early trend move
-Possible false breakout
-Price may be overreacting
Fuchsia Pulse (above candle) – Bearish anomaly
XAUUSD moved weaker than expected.
Meaning:
-Possible liquidity sweep downward
-Possible aggressive sell-side event
-Possible exhaustion
-Price may be taking liquidity before reversing
Typical Use Cases
-Spot moments when gold acts independently of macro
-Identify candles that might signal a reversal or a trap
-Confirm whether a breakout is real or suspicious
-Filter trades by macro alignment
-Help understand when XAUUSD is reacting to news or liquidity instead of fundamentals
Inputs Explained
- Z-score Lookback – How many candles are considered normal behavior
- Z-threshold – How extreme a move must be before it is marked
- Basket / DXY / US30 weights – How much influence each macro component has
Optionsmith Daily SPX Direction ModelThis indicator, published by Optionsmith LLC, is used on the DAILY chart only, to gauge whether there is an edge to the bullish side or bearish side for the day. It uses multiple factors, such as where the price closed the previous day compared to the range for that day, as well as whether there is a large gap on open, and factoring in the general upward drift of SPX over time.
This indicator is published as is for educational use and with no guarantees on its reliability.
MACDiver — рабочая версия (fixed loops)MACDiver Indicator
A Pine Script indicator that identifies bullish and bearish divergences between price action and the MACD oscillator. It uses pivot highs/lows in both price and MACD series to detect potential reversal signals. When price makes higher highs (or lower lows) while MACD makes lower highs (or higher lows), the indicator marks these divergences with lines and labels on the chart, providing potential trading signals.
Ultimate Squeeze & BreakoutTitle: Ultimate Squeeze & Breakout
Description: This professional volatility indicator utilizes the power of Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels to identify high-probability consolidation zones and explosive breakouts. It is designed to help traders spot "The Squeeze"—a critical period of low volatility where the market builds potential energy before a significant directional move.
How It Works:
1. The Energy (The Squeeze): Using the classic TTM Squeeze logic, the indicator monitors the relationship between price volatility (Bollinger Bands) and average range (Keltner Channels).
Red Cloud: Volatility is compressed. The Bollinger Bands have contracted inside the Keltner Channels. The market is coiling like a spring. This is the Setup Phase.
2. The Breakout (The Release): When price expands and closes outside the bands, the energy is released.
Momentum Filter: A unique filter checks the slope of the 20-period Basis Line (SMA). Breakout colors only trigger if the momentum slope agrees with the breakout direction, helping to filter out weak "fakeouts."
Visual Guide:
☁️ Cloud Colors (Volatility State):
🟥 Red: Squeeze ON (Consolidation/No Trade).
🟣 Fuchsia: Bullish Momentum Breakout.
🔵 Blue: Bearish Momentum Breakout.
⬜ Gray/Green: Normal Trending (Neutral).
Features:
Smart Filters: Breakouts are validated by the underlying momentum slope.
Trend Coloring: Option to switch the neutral trending cloud between Gray and Green.
Precision Tuning: Decimal inputs allow for fine-tuning of Standard Deviation and ATR multipliers.
Alerts: Full alert support for Squeeze Start, Bullish Breakouts, and Bearish Breakouts.
Credits: This script is built upon the foundational TTM Squeeze concept popularized by John Carter, enhanced with dynamic coloring and momentum filtering.
Manual Max Pain LevelsThis indicator lets you manually input Max Pain levels from Coinglass and plot them directly on your chart. Purple color chosen as a tribute to MartyParty.
Features
• Manual input for Long/Short Max Pain
• Clean horizontal levels with labels
• Fast, lightweight, chart-only tool
Copy the Max Pain prices from Coinglass and paste them into the inputs.
Displacement Pulse Markers - sudoThis indicator is designed to highlight sudden and meaningful bursts of price movement. These bursts are called displacement pulses. A pulse appears when price expands with force, closes near the extreme of its own bar, and breaks through a recent structural level. The indicator places small circles above or below the candle to signal these moments so that traders can quickly spot abnormal movement and potential shifts in market intent.
How it works
The indicator evaluates each bar for three conditions:
Range expansion relative to volatility
The bar must be larger than normal. It compares the bar range to ATR and requires that range to exceed a multiple of ATR. When this condition is met, the bar is considered a large or forceful bar.
Close location within the bar
The bar has to close near its own high or low. A close near the top suggests strong buying force. A close near the bottom suggests strong selling force. The user can adjust what percentage qualifies as near the top or bottom.
Break of recent structure
The bar must break a recent pivot level. For bullish pulses, the high of the bar must exceed the highest high of the past N bars. For bearish pulses, the low must break the lowest low of the past N bars. This confirms that the move did not merely expand but actually displaced prior structure.
When all conditions align
A bullish displacement pulse is marked with a small aqua circle below the bar.
A bearish displacement pulse is marked with a fuchsia circle above the bar.
The result is a clean on chart visualization of where price produced meaningful displacement.
How traders can use this
Spot abnormal momentum
Pulses can highlight areas where price behaves with more force than usual. These events often appear around news, liquidity sweeps, or algorithmic shifts.
Identify possible regime changes
A pulse that breaks structure while closing near the extreme may signal a transition from a ranging environment to a trending one. It does not predict direction but flags where displacement actually occurred.
Support narrative building
When combined with levels, zones, or other frameworks, pulses can confirm whether the market had enough strength to break through an area with conviction.
Filter trades or refine entries
Some traders may choose to trade in the direction of recent pulses during trending conditions. Others may only enter a trade after a pulse confirms that the market has shifted away from compression.
Track where the market is imbalanced
A pulse visually marks whether buyers or sellers were able to generate strong initiative movement. These points often become useful reference zones for continuation or rejection analysis.
Why this indicator is useful
It reduces complex logic into simple visual markers. Instead of scanning bar by bar for structural breaks, volatility expansions, and close strength, the indicator does this automatically and highlights only the bars that meet all criteria. This keeps the chart clean while still providing precision about where displacement actually occurred.
RS Rating Multi-TimeframeRS Rating Multi-Timeframe (IBD-Style Relative Strength)
Short Description:
IBD-style Relative Strength Rating (1-99) comparing any stock's performance vs the S&P 500 across multiple timeframes.
Full Description:
Overview
This indicator calculates an IBD-style Relative Strength (RS) Rating that measures a stock's price performance relative to the S&P 500 over the past 12 months. The rating scale ranges from 1 (weakest) to 99 (strongest), telling you how a stock ranks against all other stocks in terms of relative performance.
How It Works
The RS Rating uses a weighted formula based on quarterly performance:
Last 63 days (1 quarter): 40% weight
Last 126 days (2 quarters): 20% weight
Last 189 days (3 quarters): 20% weight
Last 252 days (4 quarters): 20% weight
This weighting emphasizes recent performance while still accounting for longer-term strength.
Rating Interpretation
90-99 (Elite): Top 10% of all stocks - exceptional relative strength
80-89 (Excellent): Top 20% - strong leadership candidates
50-79 (Average): Middle of the pack
30-49 (Below Average): Underperforming the market
1-29 (Weak): Bottom 30% - avoid or consider shorting
Features
Multi-Timeframe: Works on any timeframe from 1-hour to weekly (always uses daily data for calculation)
Moving Average: Optional EMA or SMA of the RS Rating to smooth signals
Visual Zones: Color-coded zones for quick identification of strength/weakness
Signal Markers: Triangles appear when RS crosses key levels (80 and 30)
Info Table: Displays current RS Rating, change, MA value, and raw score
Alerts: Built-in alerts for key crossover events
Settings
Show Moving Average: Toggle MA line on/off
MA Length: Period for the moving average (default: 10)
MA Type: Choose between EMA or SMA
Benchmark Index: Change the comparison index (default: SP:SPX)
Show Rating Table: Toggle the info table on/off
How To Use
Buy candidates: Look for stocks with RS Rating above 80, ideally rising
Avoid: Stocks with RS Rating below 30 or falling rapidly
Confirmation: Use RS above its moving average as additional confirmation
Divergence: Watch for RS making new highs before price (bullish) or new lows before price (bearish)

Markov ProjectionThe idea here is to provide mobile S/R through Markov chaining. Definitely not a reversion to the mean trading system, or a trading system of any sort. More like an error bounded future price envelope that dramatically overshoots projected price in the direction it's moving in while just barely failing price bounding in the opposite direction. So in an uptrend, it'll overshoot the top while the bottom pokes out a bit and vice versa. Looks rather pretty. You'll have to adjust transparency settings. Happy hunting.
ChronoFlow## ChronoFlow Sentinel
ChronoFlow Sentinel is a regime console that blends normalized fast/mid/slow regression slopes, phases them against a dual-speed EMA spread, and grades alignment so you instantly know whether the time stack is trending, rotating, or fighting itself.
HOW IT WORKS
Multi-Timeframe Slopes – Linear regression slopes are fetched via request.security() for your chosen fast, mid, and slow frames.
Normalized Weighting – User weights are rescaled so the composite chrono score is always on a consistent scale, regardless of configuration.
Phase Differential – The indicator subtracts a slow EMA from a fast EMA to detect whether price impulse confirms the slope mix.
Alignment Score – Signs of the three slopes are compared to compute a 0-1 alignment metric; backgrounds and alerts use this to signal confidence vs. chop.
Diagnostics Console – A bottom-right table streams each slope, the blended score, and which timeframe currently dominates.
HOW TO USE IT
Trend Qualification : Only push multi-contract positions when chrono score is positive, phase is positive, and alignment stays above your alert threshold (default 0.66).
Chop Defense : When alignment dips and conflict markers appear, immediately switch into mean-reversion tactics or sit flat.
Swing + Intraday Bridge : Pair ChronoFlow with other structure tools; require both aligned backgrounds and price confirmation before committing to swing entries.
CRYPTOCAP:SOL | CRYPTOCAP:XRP side by side view with ChronoFlow
VISUAL FEATURES
Optional flow curves: Enable Plot Raw Flows to audit each timeframe's slope when troubleshooting a signal.
Background intensity: Opacity auto-adjusts with alignment, so weak trends look faded while strong regimes glow vividly.
Signal/Conflict toggles: Long/short and chop markers are opt-in, keeping the panel pristine until you need annotations.
Conflict alerts: Built-in alert condition fires whenever alignment falls below your threshold, warning execution layers to scale down risk.
PARAMETERS
Fast Frame (default: 30): Fast timeframe for regression slope calculation.
Mid Frame (default: 120): Mid timeframe for regression slope calculation.
Slow Frame (default: D): Slow timeframe for regression slope calculation.
Fast Regression (default: 21): Regression length for fast timeframe.
Mid Regression (default: 34): Regression length for mid timeframe.
Slow Regression (default: 55): Regression length for slow timeframe.
Phase Length (default: 13): EMA period for phase differential calculation.
Fast Weight (default: 0.45): Influence of the fast timeframe in the composite score.
Mid Weight (default: 0.35): Influence of the mid timeframe in the composite score.
Slow Weight (default: 0.20): Influence of the slow timeframe in the composite score.
Plot Raw Flows (default: disabled): Enable to audit each timeframe's slope when troubleshooting.
Show Signal Labels (default: disabled): Toggle long/short signal markers.
Show Conflict Labels (default: disabled): Toggle conflict/chop markers.
Conflict Alert Level (default: 0.66): Set the alignment threshold that should trigger reduced size or flat positioning.
ALERTS
The indicator includes three alert conditions:
ChronoFlow Bullish: Detected a bullish regime shift
ChronoFlow Bearish: Detected a bearish regime shift
ChronoFlow Conflict: Flagged a low-alignment regime
LIMITATIONS
This indicator requires access to multiple timeframes via request.security() , which may consume additional resources. The alignment score is a simplified metric—real market conditions are more complex than a 0-1 scale can capture. The phase differential calculation assumes EMA spreads are meaningful proxies for momentum, which may not hold in all market regimes. Users should test parameter combinations on their specific instruments and timeframes, as default values are optimized for typical index futures trading.

Per Bak Self-Organized CriticalityTL;DR: This indicator measures market fragility. It measures the system's vulnerability to cascade failures and phase transitions. I've added four independent stress vectors: tail risk, volatility regime, credit stress, and positioning extremes. This allows us to quantify how susceptible markets are to disproportionate moves from small shocks, similar to how a steep sandpile is primed for avalanches.
Avalanches, forest fires, earthquakes, pandemic outbreaks, and market crashes. What do they all have in common? They are not random.
These events follow power laws - stable systems that naturally evolve toward critical states where small triggers can unleash catastrophic cascades.
For example, if you are building a sandpile, there will be a point with a little bit additional sand will cause a landslide.
Markets build fragility grain by grain, like a sandpile approaching avalanche.
The Per Bak Self-Organized Criticality (SOC) indicator detects when the markets are a few grains away from collapse.
This indicator is highly inspired by the work of Per Bak related to the science of self-organized criticality .
As Bak said:
"The earthquake does not 'know how large it will become'. Thus, any precursor state of a large event is essentially identical to a precursor state of a small event."
For markets, this means:
We cannot predict individual crash size from initial conditions
We can predict statistical distribution of crashes
We can identify periods of increased systemic risk (proximity to critical state)
BTW, this is a forwarding looking indicator and doesn't reprint. :)
The Story of Per Bak
In 1987, Danish physicist Per Bak and his colleagues discovered an important pattern in nature: self-organized criticality.
Their sandpile experiment revealed something: drop grains of sand one by one onto a pile, and the system naturally evolves toward a critical state. Most grains cause nothing. Some trigger small slides. But occasionally a single grain triggers a massive avalanche.
The key insight is that we cannot predict which grain will trigger the avalanche, but you can measure when the pile has reached a critical state.
Why Markets Are the Ultimate SOC System?
Financial markets exhibit all the hallmarks of self-organized criticality:
Interconnected agents (traders, institutions, algorithms) with feedback loops
Non-linear interactions where small events can cascade through the system
Power-law distributions of returns (fat tails, not normal distributions)
Natural evolution toward fragility as leverage builds, correlations tighten, and positioning crowds
Phase transitions where calm markets suddenly shift to crisis regimes
Mathematical Foundation
Power Law Distributions
Traditional finance assumes returns follow a normal distribution. "Markets return 10% on average." But I disagree. Markets follow power laws:
P(x) ∝ x^(-α)
Where P(x) is the probability of an event of size x, and α is the power law exponent (typically 3-4 for financial markets).
What this means: Small moves happen constantly. Medium moves are less frequent. Catastrophic moves are rare but follow predictable probability distributions. The "fat tails" are features of critical systems.
Critical Slowing Down
As systems approach phase transitions, they exhibit critical slowing down—reduced ability to absorb shocks. Mathematically, this appears as:
τ ∝ |T - T_c|^(-ν)
Where τ is the relaxation time, T is the current state, T_c is the critical threshold, and ν is the critical exponent.
Translation: Near criticality, markets take longer to recover from perturbations. Fragility compounds.
Component Aggregation & Non-Linear Emergence
The Per Bak SOC our index aggregates four normalized components (each scaled 0-100) with tunable weights:
SOC = w₁·C_tail + w₂·C_vol + w₃·C_credit + w₄·C_position
Default weights (you can change this):
w₁ = 0.34 (Tail Risk via SKEW)
w₂ = 0.26 (Volatility Regime via VIX term structure)
w₃ = 0.18 (Credit Stress via HYG/LQD + TED spread)
w₄ = 0.22 (Positioning Extremes via Put/Call ratio)
Each component uses percentile ranking over a 252-day lookback combined with absolute thresholds to capture both relative regime shifts and extreme absolute levels.
The Four Pillars Explained
1. Tail Risk (SKEW Index)
Measures options market pricing of fat-tail events. High SKEW indicates elevated outlier probability.
C_tail = 0.7·percentrank(SKEW, 252) + 0.3·((SKEW - 115)/0.5)
2. Volatility Regime (VIX Term Structure)
Combines VIX level with term structure slope. Backwardation signals acute stress.
C_vol = 0.4·VIX_level + 0.35·VIX_slope + 0.25·VIX_ratio
3. Credit Stress (HYG/LQD + TED Spread)
Tracks high-yield deterioration versus investment-grade and interbank lending stress.
C_credit = 0.65·percentrank(LQD/HYG, 252) + 0.35·(TED/0.75)·100
4. Positioning Extremes (Put/Call Ratio)
Detects extreme hedging demand through percentile ranking and z-score analysis.
C_position = 0.6·percentrank(P/C, 252) + 0.4·zscore_normalized
What the Indicator Really Measures?
Not Volatility but Fragility
Markets Going Down ≠ Fragility Building (actually when markets go down, risk and fragility are released)
The 0-100 Scale & Regime Thresholds
The indicator outputs a 0-100 fragility score with four regimes:
🟢 Safe (0-39): System resilient, can absorb normal shocks
🟡 Building (40-54): Early fragility signs, watch for deterioration
🟠 Elevated (55-69): System vulnerable
🔴 Critical (70-100): Highly susceptible to cascade failures

MM Wash Detector (Discreet)MM Wash Detector identifies weekly liquidity sweeps created by market makers.
It highlights two conditions:
Bull Wash – price wicks above the weekly range to grab liquidity, then reverses
Bear Wash – price wicks below the weekly range to grab liquidity, then reverses
This tool is designed for traders who want to spot engineered stop-hunts, liquidity grabs, and manipulation pockets where reversals often begin.
Labels are intentionally discreet for minimal chart clutter.
✅ 2. Short & Simple
Shows when market makers sweep liquidity above or below the weekly range.
Bull Wash = liquidity grab above
Bear Wash = liquidity grab below
Discreet labels. No clutter.
✅ 3. Aggressive / Smart-Money Style
Tracks weekly stop-hunts engineered by smart money.
A “Wash” prints when price creates an exaggerated wick outside the weekly range with a small body and volume confirmation.
These zones often mark liquidity collection before a reversal or displacement move.
✅ 4. Beginner-Friendly
This indicator helps you see when the price makes a long wick above or below the weekly candle — a sign that big players might be triggering stops and collecting liquidity.

EMA Signals + HTF S/R + Diagonal (5-15m)Описание на русском
Скрипт строит две экспоненциальные скользящие средние (быструю и медленную EMA), а также SMA20 и SMA50, и использует их для генерации пошаговых сигналов входа. При пересечении EMA9 и EMA12 вверх выше SMA20 под свечой появляется зелёный круг, а когда после этого обе EMA оказываются выше SMA50, под ценой появляется плашка LONG; аналогично при пересечении вниз ниже SMA20 рисуется красный круг над свечой, и после ухода EMA под SMA50 формируется плашка SHORT.
Горизонтальные зоны поддержки и сопротивления вычисляются по пивотам старшего таймфрейма (по умолчанию 1 час) через request.security, каждая зона рисуется прямоугольником на графике и сопровождается подписью с ценой уровня и текущим количеством касаний ценой (Touches: N), которое считается на активном ТФ. Дополнительно скрипт строит одну диагональную линию поддержки: она протягивается от последнего ключевого минимума (pivot low с заданной «силой») к текущей цене и динамически обновляется при появлении нового важного минимума, рядом с линией отображается подпись Trend.
Description in English
This script combines EMA‑based signals, dynamic higher‑timeframe support/resistance zones, and a diagonal trendline from the latest key swing low. It plots two exponential moving averages (fast and slow EMA) along with SMA20 and SMA50, and uses them to create step‑by‑step entry signals: when EMA9 crosses above EMA12 while both are above SMA20, a green circle is shown below the bar, and once both EMAs move above SMA50 after that, a LONG label is printed below price; conversely, when EMA9 crosses below EMA12 while both are below SMA20, a red circle appears above the bar, and after both EMAs move below SMA50, a SHORT label is displayed above price.
Horizontal support and resistance zones are derived from pivot highs and lows on a higher timeframe (1‑hour by default) using request.security; each zone is drawn as a rectangle on the chart and annotated with the level price and the current number of touches by price (Touches: N), counted on the active timeframe. In addition, the script plots a single diagonal support line from the most recent key swing low (pivot low with configurable strength) towards the current price, updating it whenever a new important low appears, and shows a small “Trend” label near this line
EMA Low + Supertrend (Alerts)this strategy uses the EMA LOW(25 89 110 355 and 480) and the Supertrend. the supertrend gives you the BUY/SELL When the market flip
