TPO Levels [VAH/POC/VAL] with Poor H/L, Single Prints & NPOCs### 🎯 Advanced Market Profile & Key Level Analysis
This script is a unique and comprehensive technical analysis tool designed to help traders understand market structure, value, and key liquidity levels using the principles of **Auction Market Theory** and **Market Profile**.
This script is unique (and shouldn't be censored) because :
It allows large history of levels to be displayed
Accurate as possible tick size
Doesn't draw a profile but only the actual levels
Supports multi-timeframe levels even on the daily mode giving macro context
There is no indicator out there that does it
While these concepts are universal, this indicator was built primarily for the dynamic, 24/7 nature of the **cryptocurrency market**. It helps you move beyond simple price action to understand *why* the market is moving, which is especially crucial in the volatile crypto space.
### ## 📊 The Concepts Behind the Calculations
To use this script effectively, it's important to understand the core concepts it is built upon. The entire script is self-contained and does not require other indicators.
* **What is Market Profile?**
Market Profile is a unique charting technique that organizes price and time data to reveal market structure. It's built from **Time Price Opportunities (TPOs)**, which are 30-minute periods of market activity. By stacking these TPOs, the script builds a distribution, showing which price levels were most accepted (heavily traded) and which were rejected (lightly traded) during a session.
* **What is the Value Area (VA)?**
The Value Area is the heart of the profile. It represents the price range where **70%** of the session's trading volume occurred. This is considered the "fair value" zone where both buyers and sellers were in general agreement.
* **Point of Control (POC):** The single price level with the most TPOs. This was the most accepted or "fairest" price of the session and acts as a gravitational line for price.
* **Value Area High (VAH):** The upper boundary of the 70% value zone.
* **Value Area Low (VAL):** The lower boundary of the 70% value zone.
VAH and VAL are dynamic support and resistance levels. Trading outside the previous session's value area can signal the start of a new trend.

### ## 📈 Key Features Explained
This script automatically calculates and displays the following critical market-generated information:
* **Multi-Timeframe Market Profile**
Automatically draws Daily, Weekly, and Monthly profiles, allowing you to analyze market structure across different time horizons. The script preserves up to 20 historical sessions to provide deep market context.
* **Naked Point of Control (nPOC)**
A "Naked" POC is a Point of Control from a previous session that has **not** been revisited by price. These levels often act as powerful magnets for price, representing areas of unfinished business that the market may seek to retest. The script tracks and displays Daily, Weekly, and Monthly nPOCs until they are touched.
* **Single Prints (Imbalance Zones)**
A Single Print is a price level where only one TPO traded during the session's development. This signifies a rapid, aggressive price move and an imbalanced market. These areas, like gaps in a traditional chart, are frequently revisited as the market seeks to "fill in" these thin parts of the profile.
* **Poor Structure (Unfinished Auctions)**
A **Poor High** or **Poor Low** occurs when the top or bottom of a profile is flat, with two or more TPOs at the extreme price. This suggests that the auction in that direction was weak and inconclusive. These weak structures often signal a high probability that price will eventually break that high or low.

### ## 💡 How to Use This Indicator
This tool is not a signal generator but an analytical framework to improve your trading decisions.
1. **Determine Market Context:** Start by asking: Is the current price trading *inside* or *outside* the previous session's Value Area?
* **Inside VA:** The market is in a state of balance or range-bound. Look for trades between the VAH and VAL.
* **Outside VA:** The market is in a state of imbalance and may be starting a trend. Look for continuation or acceptance of prices outside the prior value.
2. **Identify Key Levels:**
* Use historical **nPOCs** as potential profit targets or areas to watch for a price reaction.
* Treat historical **VAH** and **VAL** levels as significant support and resistance zones.
* Note where **Single Prints** are. These are often price magnets that may get "filled" in the future.
3. **Spot Weakness:**
* A **Poor High** suggests weak resistance that may be easily broken.
* A **Poor Low** suggests weak support, signaling a potential for a continued move lower if broken.

### ## ⚙️ Customization & Crypto Presets
The indicator is highly customizable, allowing you to change colors, transparency, the number of historical sessions, and more.
To help traders get started quickly, the indicator includes **built-in layout presets** specifically calibrated for major cryptocurrencies: ** BINANCE:BTCUSDT.P , BINANCE:ETHUSDT.P , and BINANCE:SOLUSDT.P **. These presets automatically adjust key visual parameters to better suit the unique price characteristics and volatility of each asset, providing an optimized view right out of the box.

### ## ⚠️ Disclaimer
This indicator is a tool for market analysis and should not be interpreted as direct buy or sell signals. It provides information based on historical price action, which does not guarantee future results. Trading involves significant risk, and you should always use proper risk management. This script is designed for use on standard chart types (e.g., Candlesticks, Bar) and may produce misleading information on non-standard charts.
Buscar en scripts para "gaps"
Chimera [theUltimator5]In myth, the chimera is an “impossible” hybrid—lion, goat, and serpent fused into one—striking to look at and formidable in presence. The word has come to mean a beautiful, improbable union of parts that shouldn’t work together, yet do.
Chimera is a dual-mode market context tool that blends a multi-input oscillator with classic ADX/DI trend strength, plus optional multi-timeframe “gap-line” tracking. Use it to visualize regime (trend vs. range), momentum swings around an adaptive midline, and higher timeframe (HTF) reference levels that auto-terminate on touch/cross.
Modes
1) Oscillator view
A smoothed composite of five common inputs—RSI, MACD (oscillator), Bollinger position, Stochastic, and an ATR/DI-weighted bias. Each is normalized to a comparable 0–100 style scale, averaged, and plotted as a candle-style oscillator (short vs. long smoothing, wickless for clarity). A dynamic midline with standard-deviation bands frames neutral → bearish/bullish zones. Colors ramp from neutral to your chosen Oversold/Overbought endpoints; consolidation can override to white.
Here is a description of the (5) signals used to calculate the sentiment oscillator:
RSI (14): Measures recent momentum by comparing average gains vs. losses. High = strength after advances; low = weakness after declines. (Z-score normalized to 0–100.)
MACD oscillator (12/26/9): Uses the difference between MACD and its signal (histogram) to gauge momentum shifts. Positive = bullish tilt; negative = bearish. (Z-score normalized.)
Bollinger Bands position (20, 2): Locates price within the bands (0–100 from lower → upper). Near upper suggests strength/expansion; near lower suggests weakness/contraction. (Then normalized.)
Stochastic (14, 3, 3): Shows where the close sits within the recent high-low range, smoothed via %D. Higher values = closes near highs; lower = near lows. (Scaled 0–100.)
ATR/DI composite (14): Volatility-weighted directional bias: (+DI − −DI) amplified by ATR as a % of price and its relative average. Positive = bullish pressure with volatility; negative = bearish. (Rank/scale normalized.)
All five are normalized and averaged into one composite, then smoothed (short/long) and compared to an adaptive midline with bands.
2) ADX view
Shows ADX, +DI, –DI with user-defined High Threshold. Transparency and color shift with regime. When ADX is strong, a directional “fire/ice” gradient fills the area between ADX and the high threshold, biased toward the dominant DI; when ADX is weak, a soft white fade highlights low-trend conditions.
HTF gap-line tracking (optional; both modes)
Detects “gap-like” reference levels after weak-trend consolidation flips into a sudden DI jump.
Anchors a line at the event bar’s open and auto-terminates upon first touch/cross (tick-size tolerance).
Auto-selects up to three higher timeframes suited to your chart resolution and prints non-overlapping lines with labels like 1H / 4H / 1D. Lower-priority duplicates are suppressed to reduce clutter.
Confirmation / repaint notes
Signals and lines finalize on bar close of the relevant timeframe.
HTF elements update only on the HTF bar close. During a forming bar they may appear transiently.
Line removal finalizes after the bar that produced the touch/cross closes.
Visual cues & effects
Oscillator candles: Open/High = long smoothing; Low/Close = short smoothing (no wicks).
Adaptive bands: Midline ± StdDev Multiplier × stdev of the blended series.
Consolidation tint: Optional white backdrop/candles when the consolidation condition is true (balance + low ADX).
Breakout VFX (optional): With strong DI/ADX and Bollinger breaks, renders a subtle “fire” flare above upper-band thrusts or “ice” shelf below lower-band thrusts.
Inputs (high-level)
Visual Style: Oscillator or ADX.
General (Oscillator): Lookback Period, Short/Long Smoothing, Standard Deviation Multiplier.
Color (Oscillator): Oversold/Overbought colors for gradient endpoints.
Plot (Oscillator): Show Candles, Show Slow MA Line, Show Individual Component (RSI/MACD/BB/Stoch/ATR).
Table (Oscillator): Show Information Table & position (compact dashboard of component values + status).
ADX / Gaps / VFX (both modes): ADX High Threshold, Highlight Backgrounds, Show Gap Labels, Visual Overlay Effects, and color choices for current-TF & HTF lines.
HTF selection: Automatic ladder (3 tiers) based on your chart timeframe.
Alerts (built-in)
Buy Signal – Primary: Oscillator exits oversold.
Sell Signal – Primary: Oscillator exits overbought.
Gap Fill Line Created (Any TF)
Gap Fill Line Terminated (Any TF)
ADX Crossed ABOVE/BELOW Low Threshold
ADX Crossed ABOVE/BELOW High Threshold
Consolidation Started
Alerts evaluate on the close of the relevant timeframe.
How to read it (quick guide)
Pick your lens: Oscillator for blended momentum around an adaptive midline; ADX for trend strength and DI skew.
Watch extremes & mean re-entries (Oscillator): Approaches to the top/bottom band show persistent momentum; returns toward the midline show normalization.
Check regime (ADX): Below Low = low-trend; above High = strong trend, with “fire/ice” bias toward +DI/–DI.
Track gap lines: Fresh labels mark new reference levels; lines auto-remove on first interaction. HTF lines add context but finalize only on HTF close.
The uniqueness from this indicator comes from multiple areas:
1. A unique multi-timeframe algorithm detects gap fill zones and plots them on the chart.
2. Visual effects for both visual modes were hand crafted to provide a visually stunning and intuitive interface.
3. The algorithm to determine sentiment uses a unique blend of weight and sensitivity adjustment to create a plot with elastic upper and lower bounds based off historical volatility and price action.
ATR Future Movement Range Projection
The "ATR Future Movement Range Projection" is a custom TradingView Pine Script indicator designed to forecast potential price ranges for a stock (or any asset) over short-term (1-month) and medium-term (3-month) horizons. It leverages the Average True Range (ATR) as a measure of volatility to estimate how far the price might move, while incorporating recent momentum bias based on the proportion of bullish (green) vs. bearish (red) candles. This creates asymmetric projections: in bullish periods, the upside range is larger than the downside, and vice versa.
The indicator is overlaid on the chart, plotting horizontal lines for the projected high and low prices for both timeframes. Additionally, it displays a small table in the top-right corner summarizing the projected prices and the percentage change required from the current close to reach them. This makes it useful for traders assessing potential targets, risk-reward ratios, or option strategies, as it combines volatility forecasting with directional sentiment.
Key features:
- **Volatility Basis**: Uses weekly ATR to derive a stable daily volatility estimate, avoiding noise from shorter timeframes.
- **Momentum Adjustment**: Analyzes recent candle colors to tilt projections toward the prevailing trend (e.g., more upside if more green candles).
- **Time Horizons**: Fixed at 1 month (21 trading days) and 3 months (63 trading days), assuming ~21 trading days per month (excluding weekends/holidays).
- **User Adjustable**: The ATR length/lookback (default 50) can be tweaked via inputs.
- **Visuals**: Green/lime lines for highs, red/orange for lows; a semi-transparent table for quick reference.
- **Limitations**: This is a probabilistic projection based on historical volatility and momentum—it doesn't predict direction with certainty and assumes volatility persists. It ignores external factors like news, earnings, or market regimes. Best used on daily charts for stocks/ETFs.
The indicator doesn't generate buy/sell signals but helps visualize "expected" ranges, similar to how implied volatility informs option pricing.
### How It Works Step-by-Step
The script executes on each bar update (typically daily timeframe) and follows this logic:
1. **Input Configuration**:
- ATR Length (Lookback): Default 50 bars. This controls both the ATR calculation period and the candle count window. You can adjust it in the indicator settings.
2. **Calculate Weekly ATR**:
- Fetches the ATR from the weekly timeframe using `request.security` with a length of 50 weeks.
- ATR measures average price range (high-low, adjusted for gaps), representing volatility.
3. **Derive Daily ATR**:
- Divides the weekly ATR by 5 (approximating 5 trading days per week) to get an equivalent daily volatility estimate.
- Example: If weekly ATR is $5, daily ATR ≈ $1.
4. **Define Projection Periods**:
- 1 Month: 21 trading days.
- 3 Months: 63 trading days (21 × 3).
- These are hardcoded but based on standard trading calendar assumptions.
5. **Compute Base Projections**:
- Base projection = Daily ATR × Days in period.
- This gives the total expected movement (range) without direction: e.g., for 3 months, $1 daily ATR × 63 = $63 total range.
6. **Analyze Candle Momentum (Win Rate)**:
- Counts green candles (close > open) and red candles (close < open) over the last 50 bars (ignores dojis where close == open).
- Total colored candles = green + red.
- Win rate = green / total colored (as a fraction, e.g., 0.7 for 70%). Defaults to 0.5 if no colored candles.
- This acts as a simple momentum proxy: higher win rate implies bullish bias.
7. **Adjust Projections Asymmetrically**:
- Upside projection = Base projection × Win rate.
- Downside projection = Base projection × (1 - Win rate).
- This skews the range: e.g., 70% win rate means 70% of the total range allocated to upside, 30% to downside.
8. **Calculate Projected Prices**:
- High = Current close + Upside projection.
- Low = Current close - Downside projection.
- Done separately for 1M and 3M.
9. **Plot Lines**:
- 3M High: Solid green line.
- 3M Low: Solid red line.
- 1M High: Dashed lime line.
- 1M Low: Dashed orange line.
- Lines extend horizontally from the current bar onward.
10. **Display Table**:
- A 3-column table (Projection, Price, % Change) in the top-right.
- Rows for 1M High/Low and 3M High/Low, color-coded.
- % Change = ((Projected price - Close) / Close) × 100.
- Updates dynamically with new data.
The entire process repeats on each new bar, so projections evolve as volatility and momentum change.
### Examples
Here are two hypothetical examples using the indicator on a daily chart. Assume it's applied to a stock like AAPL, but with made-up data for illustration. (In TradingView, you'd add the script to see real outputs.)
#### Example 1: Bullish Scenario (High Win Rate)
- Current Close: $150.
- Weekly ATR (50 periods): $10 → Daily ATR: $10 / 5 = $2.
- Last 50 Candles: 35 green, 15 red → Total colored: 50 → Win Rate: 35/50 = 0.7 (70%).
- Base Projections:
- 1M: $2 × 21 = $42.
- 3M: $2 × 63 = $126.
- Adjusted Projections:
- 1M Upside: $42 × 0.7 = $29.4 → High: $150 + $29.4 = $179.4 (+19.6%).
- 1M Downside: $42 × 0.3 = $12.6 → Low: $150 - $12.6 = $137.4 (-8.4%).
- 3M Upside: $126 × 0.7 = $88.2 → High: $150 + $88.2 = $238.2 (+58.8%).
- 3M Downside: $126 × 0.3 = $37.8 → Low: $150 - $37.8 = $112.2 (-25.2%).
- On the Chart: Green/lime lines skewed higher; table shows bullish % changes (e.g., +58.8% for 3M high).
- Interpretation: Suggests stronger potential upside due to recent bullish momentum; useful for call options or long positions.
#### Example 2: Bearish Scenario (Low Win Rate)
- Current Close: $50.
- Weekly ATR (50 periods): $3 → Daily ATR: $3 / 5 = $0.6.
- Last 50 Candles: 20 green, 30 red → Total colored: 50 → Win Rate: 20/50 = 0.4 (40%).
- Base Projections:
- 1M: $0.6 × 21 = $12.6.
- 3M: $0.6 × 63 = $37.8.
- Adjusted Projections:
- 1M Upside: $12.6 × 0.4 = $5.04 → High: $50 + $5.04 = $55.04 (+10.1%).
- 1M Downside: $12.6 × 0.6 = $7.56 → Low: $50 - $7.56 = $42.44 (-15.1%).
- 3M Upside: $37.8 × 0.4 = $15.12 → High: $50 + $15.12 = $65.12 (+30.2%).
- 3M Downside: $37.8 × 0.6 = $22.68 → Low: $50 - $22.68 = $27.32 (-45.4%).
- On the Chart: Red/orange lines skewed lower; table highlights larger downside % (e.g., -45.4% for 3M low).
- Interpretation: Indicates bearish risk; might prompt protective puts or short strategies.
#### Example 3: Neutral Scenario (Balanced Win Rate)
- Current Close: $100.
- Weekly ATR: $5 → Daily ATR: $1.
- Last 50 Candles: 25 green, 25 red → Win Rate: 0.5 (50%).
- Projections become symmetric:
- 1M: Base $21 → Upside/Downside $10.5 each → High $110.5 (+10.5%), Low $89.5 (-10.5%).
- 3M: Base $63 → Upside/Downside $31.5 each → High $131.5 (+31.5%), Low $68.5 (-31.5%).
- Interpretation: Pure volatility-based range, no directional bias—ideal for straddle options or range trading.
In real use, test on historical data: e.g., if past projections captured actual moves ~68% of the time (1 standard deviation for ATR), it validates the volatility assumption. Adjust the lookback for different assets (shorter for volatile cryptos, longer for stable blue-chips).
Key Levels: Daily, Weekly, Monthly [BackQuant]Key Levels: Daily, Weekly, Monthly
Map the market’s “memory” in one glance—yesterday’s range, this week’s chosen day high/low, and D/W/M opens—then auto-clean levels once they break.
What it does
This tool plots three families of high-signal reference lines and keeps them tidy as price evolves:
Chosen Day High/Low (per week) — Pick a weekday (e.g., Monday). For each past week, the script records that day’s session high and low and projects them forward for a configurable number of bars. These act like “memory levels” that price often revisits.
Daily / Weekly / Monthly Opens — Plots the opening price of each new day, week, and month with separate styling. These opens frequently behave like magnets/flip lines intraday and anchors for regime on higher timeframes.
Auto-pruning — When price breaks a stored level, the script can automatically remove it to reduce clutter and refocus you on still-active lines. See: (broken levels removed).
Why these levels matter
Liquidity pockets — Prior day’s high/low and the daily open concentrate stops and pending orders. Mapping them quickly reveals likely sweep or fade zones. Example: previous day highs + daily open highlighting liquidity:
Context & regime — Monthly opens frame macro bias; trading above a rising cluster of monthly opens vs. below gives a clean top-down read. Example: monthly-only “macro outlook” view:
Cleaner charts — Auto-remove broken lines so you focus on what still matters right now.
What it plots (at a glance)
Past Chosen Day High/Low for up to N prior weeks (your choice), extended right.
Current Daily Open , Weekly Open , and Monthly Open , each with its own color, label, and forward extension.
Optional short labels (e.g., “Mon High”) or full labels (with week/month info).
How breaks are detected & cleaned
You control both the evidence and the timing of a “break”:
Break uses — Choose Close (more conservative) or Wick (more sensitive).
Inclusive? — If enabled, equality counts (≥ high or ≤ low). If disabled, you need a strict cross.
Allow intraday breaks? — If on, a level can break during the tracked day; if off, the script only counts breaks after the session completes.
Remove Broken Levels — When a break is confirmed, the line/label is deleted automatically. (See the demo: )
Quick start
Pick a Day of Week to Track (e.g., Monday).
Set how many weeks back to show (e.g., 8–10).
Choose how far to extend each family (bars to the right for chosen-day H/L and D/W/M opens).
Decide if a break uses Close or Wick , and whether equality counts.
Toggle Remove Broken Levels to keep the chart clean automatically.
Tips by use-case
Intraday bias — Watch the Daily Open as a magnet/flip. If price gaps above and holds, pullbacks to the daily open often decide direction. Pair with last day’s high/low for sweep→reversal or true breakout cues. See:
Weekly structure — Track the week’s chosen day (e.g., Monday) high/low across prior weeks. If price stalls near a cluster of old “Monday Highs,” look for sweep/reject patterns or continuation on reclaim.
Macro regime — Hide daily/weekly lines and keep only Monthly Opens to read bigger cycles at a glance (BTC/crypto especially). Example:
Customization
Use wicks or bodies for highs/lows (wicks capture extremes; bodies are stricter).
Line style & thickness — solid/dashed/dotted, width 1–5, plus global transparency.
Labels — Abbreviated (“Mon High”, “D Open”) or full (month/week/day info).
Color scheme — Separate colors for highs, lows, and each of D/W/M opens.
Capacity controls — Set how many daily/weekly/monthly opens and how many weeks of chosen-day H/L to keep visible.
What’s under the hood
On your selected weekday, the script records that session’s true high and true low (using wicks or body-based extremes—your choice), then projects a horizontal line forward for the next bars.
At each new day/week/month , it records the opening price and projects that line forward as well.
Each bar, the script checks your “break” rules; once broken, lines/labels are removed if auto-cleaning is on.
Everything updates in real time; past levels don’t repaint after the session finishes.
Recommended presets
Day trading — Weeks back: 6–10; extend D/W opens: 50–100 bars; Break uses: Close ; Inclusive: off; Auto-remove: on.
Swing — Fewer daily opens, more weekly opens (2–6), and 8–12 weeks of chosen-day H/L.
Macro — Show only Monthly Opens (1–6 months), dashed style, thicker lines for clarity.
Reading the examples
Broken lines disappear — decluttering in action:
Macro outlook — monthly opens as cycle rails:
Liquidity map — previous day highs + daily open:
Final note
These are not “signals”—they’re reference points that many participants watch. By standardising how you draw them and automatically clearing the ones that no longer matter, you turn a noisy chart into a focused map: where liquidity likely sits, where price memory lives, and which lines are still in play.
Quantile Regression Bands [BackQuant]Quantile Regression Bands
Tail-aware trend channeling built from quantiles of real errors, not just standard deviations.
What it does
This indicator fits a simple linear trend over a rolling lookback and then measures how price has actually deviated from that trend during the window. It then places two pairs of bands at user-chosen quantiles of those deviations (inner and outer). Because bands are based on empirical quantiles rather than a symmetric standard deviation, they adapt to skewed and fat-tailed behaviour and often hug price better in trending or asymmetric markets.
Why “quantile” bands instead of Bollinger-style bands?
Bollinger Bands assume a (roughly) symmetric spread around the mean; quantiles don’t—upper and lower bands can sit at different distances if the error distribution is skewed.
Quantiles are robust to outliers; a single shock won’t inflate the bands for many bars.
You can choose tails precisely (e.g., 1%/99% or 5%/95%) to match your risk appetite.
How it works (intuitive)
Center line — a rolling linear regression approximates the local trend.
Residuals — for each bar in the lookback, the indicator looks at the gap between actual price and where the line “expected” price to be.
Quantiles — those gaps are sorted; you select which percentiles become your inner/outer offsets.
Bands — the chosen quantile offsets are added to the current end of the regression line to draw parallel support/resistance rails.
Smoothing — a light EMA can be applied to reduce jitter in the line and bands.
What you see
Center (linear regression) line (optional).
Inner quantile bands (e.g., 25th/75th) with optional translucent fill.
Outer quantile bands (e.g., 1st/99th) with a multi-step gradient to visualise “tail zones.”
Optional bar coloring: bars trend-colored by whether price is rising above or falling below the center line.
Alerts when price crosses the outer bands (upper or lower).
How to read it
Trend & drift — the slope of the center line is your local trend. Persistent closes on the same side of the center line indicate directional drift.
Pullbacks — tags of the inner band often mark routine pullbacks within trend. Reaction back to the center line can be used for continuation entries/partials.
Tails & squeezes — outer-band touches highlight statistically rare excursions for the chosen window. Frequent outer-band activity can signal regime change or volatility expansion.
Asymmetry — if the upper band sits much further from the center than the lower (or vice versa), recent behaviour has been skewed. Trade management can be adjusted accordingly (e.g., wider take-profit upslope than downslope).
A simple trend interpretation can be derived from the bar colouring
Good use-cases
Volatility-aware mean reversion — fade moves into outer bands back toward the center when trend is flat.
Trend participation — buy pullbacks to the inner band above a rising center; flip logic for shorts below a falling center.
Risk framing — set dynamic stops/targets at quantile rails so position sizing respects recent tail behaviour rather than fixed ticks.
Inputs (quick guide)
Source — price input used for the fit (default: close).
Lookback Length — bars in the regression window and residual sample. Longer = smoother, slower bands; shorter = tighter, more reactive.
Inner/Outer Quantiles (τ) — choose your “typical” vs “tail” levels (e.g., 0.25/0.75 inner, 0.01/0.99 outer).
Show toggles — independently toggle center line, inner bands, outer bands, and their fills.
Colors & transparency — customize band and fill appearance; gradient shading highlights the tail zone.
Band Smoothing Length — small EMA on lines to reduce stair-step artefacts without meaningfully changing levels.
Bar Coloring — optional trend tint from the center line’s momentum.
Practical settings
Swing trading — Length 75–150; inner τ = 0.25/0.75, outer τ = 0.05/0.95.
Intraday — Length 50–100 for liquid futures/FX; consider 0.20/0.80 inner and 0.02/0.98 outer in high-vol assets.
Crypto — Because of fat tails, try slightly wider outers (0.01/0.99) and keep smoothing at 2–4 to tame weekend jumps.
Signal ideas
Continuation — in an uptrend, look for pullback into the lower inner band with a close back above the center as a timing cue.
Exhaustion probe — in ranges, first touch of an outer band followed by a rejection candle back inside the inner band often precedes mean-reversion swings.
Regime shift — repeated closes beyond an outer band or a sharp re-tilt in the center line can mark a new trend phase; adjust tactics (stop-following along the opposite inner band).
Alerts included
“Price Crosses Upper Outer Band” — potential overextension or breakout risk.
“Price Crosses Lower Outer Band” — potential capitulation or breakdown risk.
Notes
The fit and quantiles are computed on a fixed rolling window and do not repaint; bands update as the window moves forward.
Quantiles are based on the recent distribution; if conditions change abruptly, expect band widths and skew to adapt over the next few bars.
Parameter choices directly shape behaviour: longer windows favour stability, tighter inner quantiles increase touch frequency, and extreme outer quantiles highlight only the rarest moves.
Final thought
Quantile bands answer a simple question: “How unusual is this move given the current trend and the way price has been missing it lately?” By scoring that question with real, distribution-aware limits rather than one-size-fits-all volatility you get cleaner pullback zones in trends, more honest “extreme” tags in ranges, and a framework for risk that matches the market’s recent personality.

Technical Summary VWAP | RSI | VolatilityTechnical Summary VWAP | RSI | Volatility
The Quantum Trading Matrix is a multi-dimensional market-analysis dashboard designed as an educational and idea-generation tool to help traders read price structure, participation, momentum and volatility in one compact view. It is not an automated execution system; rather, it aggregates lightweight “quantum” signals — VWAP position, momentum oscillator behaviour, multi-EMA trend scoring, volume flow and institutional activity heuristics, market microstructure pivots and volatility measures — and synthesizes them into a single, transparent score and signal recommendation. The primary goal is to make explicit why a given market looks favourable or unfavourable by showing the individual ingredients and how they combine, enabling traders to learn, test and form rules based on observable market mechanics.
Each module of the matrix answers a distinct market question. VWAP and its percentage distance indicate whether the current price is trading above or below the intraday volume-weighted average — a proxy for intraday institutional control and value. The quantum momentum oscillator (fast and slow EMA difference scaled to percent) captures short-to-intermediate momentum shifts, providing a quickly responsive view of directional pressure. Multi-EMA trend scoring (8/21/50) produces a simple, transparent trend score by counting conditions such as price above EMAs and cross-EMAs ordering; this score is used to categorize market trend into descriptive buckets (e.g., STRONG UP, WEAK UP, NEUTRAL, DOWN). Volume analysis compares current volume to a recent moving average and computes a Z-score to detect spikes and unusual participation; additional buy/sell pressure heuristics (buyingPressure, sellingPressure, flowRatio) estimate whether upside or downside participation dominates the bar. Institutional activity is approximated by flagging large orders relative to volume baseline (e.g., volume > 2.5× MA) and estimating a dark pool proxy; this is a heuristic to highlight bars that likely had large players involved.
The dashboard also performs market-structure detection with small pivot windows to identify recent local support/resistance areas and computes price position relative to the daily high/low (dailyMid, pricePosition). Volatility is measured via ATR divided by price and bucketed into LOW/NORMAL/HIGH/EXTREME categories to help you adapt stop sizing and expectational horizons. Finally, all these pieces feed an interpretable scoring function that rewards alignment: VWAP above, strong flow ratio, bullish trend score, bullish momentum, and favorable RSI zone add to the overall score which is presented as a 0–100 metric and a colored emoji indicator for at-a-glance assessment.
The mashup is purposeful: each indicator covers a failure mode of the other. For example, momentum readings can be misleading during volatility spikes; VWAP informs whether institutions are on the bid or offer; volume Z-score detects abnormal participation that can validate a breakout; multi-EMA score mitigates single-EMA whipsaws by requiring a combination of price/EMA conditions. Combining these signals increases information content while keeping each component explainable — a key compliance requirement. The script intentionally emphasizes transparency: when it shows a BUY/SELL/HOLD recommendation, the dashboard shows the underlying sub-components so a trader can see whether VWAP, momentum, volume, trend or structure primarily drove the score.
For practical use, adopt a clear workflow: (1) check the matrix score and read the component tiles (VWAP position, momentum, trend and volume) to understand the drivers; (2) confirm market-structure support/resistance and pricePosition relative to the daily range; (3) require at least two corroborating components (for example, VWAP ABOVE + Momentum BULLISH or Volume spike + Trend STRONG UP) before considering entries; (4) use ATR-based stops or daily pivot distance for stop placement and size positions such that the trade risks a small, pre-defined percent of capital; (5) for intraday scalps shorten holding time and tighten stops, for swing trades increase lookback lengths and require multi-timeframe (higher TF) agreement. Treat the matrix as an idea filter and replay lab: when an alert triggers, replay the bars and observe which components anticipated the move and which lagged.
Parameter tuning matters. Shortening the momentum length makes the oscillator more sensitive (useful for scalping), while lengthening it reduces noise for swing contexts. Volume profile bars and MA length should match the instrument’s liquidity — increase the MA for low-liquidity stocks to reduce false institutional flags. The trend multiplier and signal sensitivity parameters let you calibrate how aggressively the matrix counts micro evidence into the score. Always backtest parameter sets across multiple periods and instruments; run walk-forward tests and keep a simple out-of-sample validation window to reduce overfitting risk.
Limitations and failure modes are explicit: institutional flags and dark-pool estimates are heuristics and cannot substitute for true tape or broker-level order flow; volume split by price range is an approximation and will not perfectly reflect signed volume; pivot detection with small windows may miss larger structural swings; VWAP is typically intraday-centric and less meaningful across multi-day swing contexts; the score is additive and may not capture non-linear relationships between features in extreme market regimes (e.g., flash crashes, circuit breaker events, or overnight gaps). The matrix is also susceptible to false signals during major news releases when price and volume behavior dislocate from typical patterns. Users should explicitly test behavior around earnings, macro data and low-liquidity periods.
To learn with the matrix, perform these experiments: (A) collect all BUY/SELL alerts over a 6-month period and measure median outcome at 5, 20 and 60 bars; (B) require additional gating conditions (e.g., only accept BUY when flowRatio>60 and trendScore≥4) and compare expectancy; (C) vary the institutional threshold (2×, 2.5×, 3× volumeMA) to see how many true positive spikes remain; (D) perform multi-instrument tests to ensure parameters are not tuned to a single ticker. Document every test and prefer robust, slightly lower returns with clearer logic rather than tuned “optimal” results that fail out of sample.
Originality statement: This script’s originality lies in the curated combination of intraday value (VWAP), multi-EMA trend scoring, momentum percent oscillator, volume Z-score plus buy/sell flow heuristics and a compact, interpretable scoring system. The script is not a simple indicator mashup; it is a didactic ensemble specifically designed to make internal rationale visible so traders can learn how each market characteristic contributes to actionable probability. The tool’s novelty is its emphasis on interpretability — showing the exact contributing signals behind a composite score — enabling reproducible testing and educational value.

Quantum Trading Matrix — multi-factor intraday dashboard (educational use only).
Purpose: Combines intraday VWAP position, a fast/slow EMA momentum percent oscillator, multi-EMA trend scoring (8/21/50), volume Z-score and buy/sell flow heuristics, pivot-based microstructure detection, and ATR-based volatility buckets to produce a transparent, componentized market score and trade-idea indicator. The mashup is intentional: VWAP identifies intraday value, momentum detects short bursts, EMAs provide structural trend bias, and volume/flow confirm participation. Signals require alignment of at least two components (for example, VWAP ABOVE + Momentum BULLISH + positive flow) for higher confidence.
Inputs: momentum period, volume MA/profile length, EMA configuration (8/21/50), trend multiplier, signal sensitivity, color and display options. Use shorter momentum lengths for scalps and longer for swing analysis. Increase volume MA for thinly traded instruments.
Limitations: Institutional/dark-pool estimates and flow heuristics are approximations, not actual exchange tape. VWAP is intraday-focused. Expect false signals during major news or low-liquidity sessions. Backtest and paper-trade before applying real capital.

Pattern ScannerUltimate Pattern Scanner — multi-timeframe candlestick discovery tool (educational use only).
Purpose: This script scans user-selected timeframes for classical candlestick patterns (for example: engulfing, morning/evening stars, hammers, dojis, tasuki gaps, three soldiers/crows, tweezers, marubozu, and others) and reports pattern name, detection price, directional signal (Bull / Bear / Neutral), and a simple volume participation metric. It is intended as an idea-generation and training tool to help traders learn pattern mechanics, not as an automated trading system.
Main modules and rationale: 1) Pattern engine — applies classical candle structure rules to detect formations; 2) SMA trend filter (configurable length) — provides a directional bias to favor trade-with-trend setups; 3) Volume heuristic — approximates participation by separating candles into buy-like and sell-like volume and comparing total volume to a moving average; 4) Multi-timeframe aggregator — collects and presents pattern results from multiple timeframes; 5) Alerts — optional alerts list detected patterns and TFs. Combining these modules is intentional: patterns provide structure, SMA provides context, and volume supplies participation confirmation. Together they improve the educational value and practical relevance of each detected pattern.
How to use: Choose timeframes and SMA length that match your trading horizon. Use the scanner to locate pattern candidates, then confirm with higher-timeframe agreement and volume ratio before considering trade entry. Use structural stops (recent swing highs/lows or ATR-based stops) and define risk:reward rules. For learning, replay alerted bars and record outcomes over fixed horizons to build empirical statistics.
Limitations: Volume classification (close>open) is a heuristic and not a true bid/ask tape. SMA is a lagging trend proxy. Multi-timeframe agreement reduces but does not eliminate false signals, especially around news or in low-liquidity instruments. Use demo accounts and backtesting before live trading.
Inputs you can adjust: timeframe list, SMA length, volume MA length, which patterns to enable/disable, display options.

ICT Sweep + FVG Entry (v6) • Antoine📌 ICT Sweep + FVG Entry (Antoine)
This indicator is designed for price action traders who follow ICT concepts and want a mechanical tool to spot liquidity sweeps, fair value gaps (FVGs), and precise entry signals.
🔎 Key Features
Liquidity Pools (HTF)
• Automatically plots recent swing highs/lows from a higher timeframe (5m/15m).
• These act as Buy Side Liquidity (BSL) and Sell Side Liquidity (SSL) levels where stop orders accumulate.
Sweep Detection
• Identifies when price breaks a pool (BSL/SSL) but closes back inside → a classic liquidity grab.
• Plots a triangle on the chart when a sweep is confirmed.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Highlighting
• Detects bullish and bearish FVGs on the execution timeframe (ideal for 1m).
• Option to display active FVG zones with shaded boxes.
Entry Signals
• A signal (cross) appears when:
A liquidity sweep occurs.
An FVG forms in the direction of the rejection.
Price retests the FVG (entry at the 50% mid-level or edge).
Alerts Ready
• Get alerted for sweeps (bullish/bearish) and for entry confirmations (long/short FVG retests).
🎯 How to Use
Choose your HTF (5m or 15m) → The indicator maps major liquidity pools.
Drop to LTF (1m) → Wait for a sweep signal at one of the pools.
Confirm with FVG → If an FVG appears in the sweep’s direction, the indicator waits for a retest.
Entry → Enter on the retest of the FVG (edge or 50%).
Risk Management
Stop loss: just beyond the sweep’s wick.
Target: opposite liquidity pool.
Minimum recommended R:R: 1:2.
✅ Why this helps
This tool makes it easier to trade ICT-style setups without missing opportunities:
No need to manually draw every swing high/low.
Automatic FVG detection saves time.
Clear sweep + FVG + retest logic keeps your entries mechanical and disciplined.

Swing Guardrail — 30-sec Midterm Check (EBITDA Margin & EV/EBITDWhat it does
Before a short-term swing entry, this indicator right-sizes positions by a quick midterm (3–12m) durability screen using two fundamentals:
EBITDA Margin (TTM) → earning power / operational resilience
EV/EBITDA (TTM) → price tag vs earning capacity (payback feel)
A high-contrast table (top-right) shows both metrics and a verdict:
PASS — both meet thresholds → normal size
HALF — only one meets → reduce size
FAIL — neither meets → avoid
Why check “midterm” for a short-term trade?
Short swings still face earnings/news gaps, failed breakouts, and regime shifts. Names with weak margins or stretched valuation tend to break faster and deeper. A 30-sec durability check helps you:
Filter fragile setups (avoid expensive + weakening names)
Stabilize drawdowns (size down when quality/price don’t align)
Keep timing unchanged while improving risk-adjusted returns
Inputs (defaults)
Min EBITDA Margin % (TTM): 8%
Max EV/EBITDA (TTM): 12
Dark chart? High-contrast colors
How to use with a swing system
Get your entry from price/volume (e.g., Ichimoku cloud break, Kijun reclaim, Tenkan>Kijun; or your A/B/C rules).
Run this check only to set size (not timing).
Optional alerts: Once per bar close for PASS / HALF / FAIL.
Size mapping & event guard
PASS → 100% of your planned size
HALF → ~50% size / tighter stops
FAIL → watchlist only
If earnings < ~10 JP business days, drop one tier; ≤3 days → avoid.
Sector guides (tweak as needed)
Software/Internet: Margin ≥ 15%, EV/EBITDA ≤ 18
Industrials/Consumer: Margin ≥ 8%, EV/EBITDA ≤ 12
Retail: Margin ≥ 5–7%, EV/EBITDA ≤ 10–12
Edge cases / substitutions
Banks/Insurers/REITs or net-cash/negative EBITDA: EV/EBITDA may mislead → consider Net Debt/EBITDA or sector metrics (CET1/LTV/DSCR).
Sparse data / fresh listings: numbers may be NA until updates.
Notes & limitations
Data via request.financial() (TTM/most-recent). Some tickers/regions can show NA until fundamentals refresh.
This is a risk-screen / sizing tool, not a buy/sell signal.

ICT FVG Buy/Sell SignalsThis bot is built on ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts such as:
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) – imbalance zones between candles.
Consequent Encroachment (CE) – the midpoint of a gap.
Premium / Discount Arrays – dealing ranges split into premium (sell-side) and discount (buy-side) zones.
Displacement candles – strong impulsive moves that confirm intent.
The bot scans for FVGs, marks CE levels, and waits for price to return to these levels.
When price revisits a valid FVG zone with displacement confirmation and in the correct PD array, the bot generates a BUY or SELL signal.
✅ Signal Rules
Buy Signal
Price trades back into a Bullish FVG.
Current bar shows bullish displacement (large bullish body relative to ATR).
Price is in discount territory of the current dealing range (if PD filter is enabled).
Close is above the CE line of the FVG.
Sell Signal
Price trades back into a Bearish FVG.
Current bar shows bearish displacement.
Price is in premium territory of the current dealing range.
Close is below the CE line of the FVG.
🎯 What You’ll See on the Chart
Green “BUY” labels below candles when long signals trigger.
Red “SELL” labels above candles when short signals trigger.
Shaded background:
Red = Premium zone (sell side).
Teal = Discount zone (buy side).
Yellow line = dealing range midpoint (equilibrium).
Dots on CE lines = midpoints of the latest bullish/bearish FVG.
🔔 Alerts
ICT Buy → Triggers when a bullish setup confirms.
ICT Sell → Triggers when a bearish setup confirms.
You can connect these alerts to:
TradingView notifications.
Webhooks (for brokers or bots like MetaTrader, NinjaTrader, or Discord).
⚙️ Settings
Swing length – how many bars to use when detecting swing highs/lows for the dealing range.
Use PD filter – toggle ON/OFF for requiring discount/premium alignment.
Displacement ATR multiple – how strong the candle body must be compared to ATR to count as a displacement.
ATR length – used for displacement filter.
📈 Supported Markets
Works on all symbols and timeframes.
Commonly applied to:
NASDAQ (NQ, QQQ)
S&P500 (ES, SPX, SPY)
Forex pairs
Crypto (BTC, ETH, etc.)

FlowScope [Hapharmonic]FlowScope: Uncover the Market's True Intent 🔬
Ever wished you could look inside the candles and see where the real action is happening? FlowScope is your microscope for the market's flow, designed to give you a powerful edge by revealing the volume distribution that price action alone can't show you.
Instead of just looking at the open, high, low, and close, FlowScope lets you dive deeper into the market's auction process. It groups candles together and builds a detailed Volume Profile for that period, showing you exactly where the trading happened and revealing the story behind the price action.
Let's explore how you can use it to gain a powerful new edge.
🧐 Core Concept: How It Works
At its heart, FlowScope does three key things:
It Groups Candles: You decide how many candles to group together. For example, setting " Group Candles " to 4 on a 5-minute chart effectively gives you a detailed 20-minute candle and profile. This helps you see the bigger picture and filter out market noise.
It Builds a Volume Profile: For each group, FlowScope analyzes the volume at every single price level. It then displays this as a horizontal histogram (we call this a "footprint" or profile). Longer bars mean more volume was traded at that price, indicating a "fair" price or an area of acceptance. Shorter bars mean price moved through quickly, indicating rejection.
It Creates a Custom "Grouped Candle": To summarize the group's overall price action, FlowScope draws a single, custom candle representing the entire group's:
Open: The open of the first candle in the group.
High: The absolute highest price reached within the group.
Low: The absolute lowest price reached within the group.
Close: The close of the last candle in the group.
This gives you a crystal-clear view of the group's net result, free from the back-and-forth noise of the individual candles inside it.
Below are some of the stunning preset color palettes you can choose from to customize your view:
🚀 How to Use: Practical Applications
FlowScope isn't just for looking pretty; it's a powerful analysis tool. Here are a few ways to integrate it into your trading:
Identify High-Volume Nodes (HVNs): Look for the longest bars in the profile. These are price levels where the market spent the most time and traded the most volume. HVNs often act as powerful "magnets" for price, becoming key areas of support and resistance.
Spot Low-Volume Nodes (LVNs): These are areas with very short bars or gaps in the profile. They represent price levels that the market moved through quickly and inefficiently. If price returns to an LVN, it's likely to move through it quickly again.
Analyze the Summary Box: This is where the real magic happens! ✨
Total Volume (Σ): The total volume for the entire group.
Buy (B) vs. Sell (S) Volume: FlowScope analyzes the lower timeframe action to estimate the buying and selling pressure that made up the total volume. Is a big red candle mostly aggressive selling, or was it just a lack of buyers? The B/S data gives you clues. A high-volume candle with nearly 50/50 buy/sell pressure might indicate absorption or a potential reversal.
Use the Grouped Candle for Clarity: Is the market in a clear uptrend, or is it just choppy? The grouped candle can give you a much clearer signal. A series of strong, green grouped candles shows much more conviction than a mix of small green and red candles.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
This is where you can truly make FlowScope your own. Let's walk through each setting.
Profile Settings
Group Candles: The number of standard chart candles you want to combine into a single FlowScope profile. A setting of 1 will analyze every single bar. A higher number gives you a broader market view. When Group Candles is set to 5, the data from the 5 individual candles are combined, and the volume is calculated accordingly.
Max Profile Boxes: This setting is more than just a number; it's a smart limit that ensures your profiles are always readable and relevant to the current market conditions.
Adaptive Sizing (The Ideal Goal): FlowScope first tries to create the perfect profile by making each volume box's height proportional to the current market volatility. It calculates an "ideal" box height based on the Average True Range ( ATR / 10 ). This is powerful because it automatically adapts: you get smaller, more detailed boxes in quiet, low-volatility markets, and larger, clearer boxes in volatile, fast-moving markets.
The Safety Cap (Your Setting): However, what if you group several candles during a massive price move? The price range could be huge! If we only used the small, ATR-based box height, you might end up with hundreds of tiny, unreadable boxes. This is where your Max Profile Boxes setting (defaulting to 50) comes in. It acts as a maximum detail cap . If the adaptive, volatility-based calculation determines that it would need more boxes than your setting (e.g., more than 50), the indicator will override it. It will then simply divide the entire price range of the group into exactly the number of boxes you specified (e.g., 50).
In short: You are setting the maximum allowable detail. FlowScope intelligently adapts the profile's granularity below that limit based on market volatility, ensuring you always get a clear and meaningful picture.
Style
Show Profile BG: A simple toggle to show or hide the faint background color behind the volume bars. Turning it off can create a cleaner look.
Color Mode: This dropdown controls how the volume profile text is colored.
Custom Gradient: This mode uses the three custom colors you select in the "Profile Colors" section to create a beautiful gradient across the profile.
Candle Color: This mode colors the profile based on whether the grouped candle was bullish (green) or bearish (red). The color will be a gradient, with the most intense color applied to the box with the highest volume; the colors of the other boxes will fade out from that point. It's a great way to see the profile's "mood" at a glance.
Profile Colors 🎨
Use Preset Palette: This is the master switch!
If checked: You can choose from 10 stunning, pre-designed color palettes from the Palette dropdown. The custom color pickers below will be disabled.
If unchecked (Default): The Palette dropdown will be disabled, and you can now choose your own three colors for the gradient.
Palette: (Only active when "Use Preset Palette" is checked) . Choose from 10 luxurious, eye-catching color schemes like "Solar Flare" or "Deep Space" to instantly change the look and feel of your chart.
Low Price / Mid Price / High Price: (Only active when "Use Preset Palette" is unchecked) . These three color pickers allow you to design your own unique gradient for the Custom Gradient color mode.
Candle Display
These settings control the custom "Grouped Candle" that summarizes the profile. When using the "Show Custom Candle" feature, you should change the chart's candlestick display to Bars for a cleaner view.
Show Custom Candle: This is the main toggle. When you check this box, the original chart candles will be hidden, and your custom FlowScope candle will be displayed instead. This custom candle is intentionally small to ensure it does not visually overlap with the volume profile boxes.
Show Body: (Only active when "Show Custom Candle" is checked) . Toggles the visibility of the candle's body.
Wick Width & Body Width: (Only active when "Show Custom Candle" is checked) . These sliders let you control the thickness of the wick and body lines to match your personal style.
Up Color / Down Color: (Only active when "Show Custom Candle" is checked) . Choose the colors for your bullish and bearish custom candles.
Experiment with the settings, find a style that works for you, and start seeing the market in a whole new light.
Happy trading! 📈😊
MA Availability ETA (SMA100/EMA200)This tool helps traders understand when long-term moving averages become available on any chosen timeframe.
Many new symbols, pairs, or timeframes don’t have enough price history to immediately plot long moving averages like SMA(100) and EMA(200). This script calculates and displays:
✅ Bars Remaining – how many bars are still needed before each moving average can be plotted reliably.
✅ ETA Duration – an estimate of how long (in chart time units) it will take until each MA is available.
✅ Status Table & Label – compact visual summary on the chart and in a table at the top-right corner.
✅ Vertical Marker – a dotted line showing exactly where both SMA(100) & EMA(200) first appear together.
✅ Alerts – optional alerts notify you the moment SMA(100) or EMA(200) become available.
🔑 Features
Works on any timeframe and instrument.
Highlights SMA(100) and EMA(200) on the chart for reference.
Lets you choose whether EMA(200) should be considered ready immediately, or only after a full 200-bar history.
Useful for traders who rely on long-term MA signals (golden cross, dynamic support/resistance, trend confirmation) and want to know when these tools will be ready on fresh charts.
🎯 Use Cases
New listings / low-history assets → See when SMA100 & EMA200 become usable.
Backtesting or forward-testing → Anticipate when long-term signals will first appear.
Trend-following strategies → Prepare in advance for crossovers or key support/resistance confluence zones.
⚠️ Note: ETAs are based on chart resolution and assume continuous data; real-world session gaps, weekends, or illiquid trading can make availability slightly later.
👉 Add this to your chart and you’ll always know when the big moving averages arrive — a critical moment for many upside moves and long-term strategies.
ATR% | Volatility NormalizerThis indicator measures true volatility by expressing the Average True Range (ATR) as a percentage of price. Unlike basic ATR plots, which show raw values, this version normalizes volatility to make it directly comparable across instruments and timeframes.
How it works:
Uses True Range (High–Low plus gaps) to capture actual market movement.
Normalizes by dividing ATR by the chosen price base (default: Close).
Multiplies by 100 to output a clean ATR% line.
Smoothing is flexible: choose from RMA, SMA, EMA, or WMA.
Optional Feature:
For comparison, you can toggle an auxiliary line showing the average absolute close-to-close % move, highlighting the difference between simplified and true volatility.
Why use it:
Track regime shifts: identify when volatility expands or contracts in % terms.
Compare volatility across different markets (equities, crypto, forex, commodities).
Integrate into risk management: position sizing, stop placement, or volatility filters for entries.
Interpretation:
Rising ATR% → expanding volatility, potential breakouts or unstable ranges.
Falling ATR% → contracting volatility, possible consolidation or range-bound conditions.
Sudden spikes → market “shocks” worth paying attention to.
PT FinderThis is mostly helpful to find potential price targets for Daytrades on the daily chart (if stronger resistances / supports are too far away).
Shows highs / lows of nearby "pivot" candles (higher high / lower low than both candles around) - depending on expected trade direction. Based on my experience these can be potential (albeit weak) resistance / support.
If it shows values only in the wrong trade direction: set a checkmark at "Invert bullish / bearish price targets" in the indicator settings
Also shows the ADR (blue line = yesterday's close MINUS Average Day Range) - which is helpful for Daytrades to see what price movement you could potentially expect for the day!
As a nice bonus it also shows gaps as yellow areas - in case you maybe missed them because you zoomed in / out too much on your daily chart.

Smart Money Footprint & Cost Basis Engine [AlgoPoint]Smart Money Footprint & Cost Basis Engine
This indicator is a comprehensive market analysis tool designed to identify the "footprints" of Smart Money (institutions, whales) and pinpoint high-probability reaction zones. Instead of relying on lagging averages, this engine analyzes the very structure of the market to find where large players have shown their hand.
How It Works: The Core Logic
The indicator operates on a multi-stage confirmation process to identify and validate Smart Money zones:
Smart Money Detection (The Trigger): The engine first scans the chart for signs of intense, urgent buying or selling. It does this by identifying Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) created by large, high-volume Displacement Candles. This is our initial Point of Interest (POI).
Cost Basis Calculation (The Average Price): Once a potential Smart Money move is detected, the indicator calculates the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) for that specific move. This gives us a highly accurate estimate of the average price at which the large players entered their positions.
Historical Confirmation (The "Memory"): This is the indicator's most unique feature. It checks its historical database to see if a similar Smart Money move (in the same direction) has occurred in the same price area in the past. If a match is found, the zone's significance is confirmed.
Verified Cost Basis Zone (The Final Output): A zone that passes all the above checks is drawn on the chart as a high-probability Verified Cost Basis Zone. These are the "memory zones" where the market is likely to react upon a re-visit.
How to Use This Indicator
Cost Basis Zones (The Boxes):
Green Boxes: Bullish zones where Smart Money likely accumulated positions. When the price returns here, a BUY reaction is expected.
Red Boxes: Bearish zones where Smart Money likely distributed positions. When the price returns here, a SELL reaction is expected.
Zone Strength (★★★): Each zone is created with a star rating. More stars indicate a higher-confidence zone (based on factors like volume intensity and historical confirmation).
BUY/SELL Signals: A signal is only generated when the price enters a zone AND the confirmation filters (if enabled in the settings) are passed.
Zone Statuses:
Green/Red: Active and waiting to be tested.
Gray: The zone has been tested, and a signal was produced.
Dark Gray (Invalidated): The zone was broken decisively and is no longer considered valid support/resistance.
Key Settings
Signal Accuracy Filters: You can enable/disable three powerful filters to balance signal quantity and quality:
Momentum Confirmation (Stoch): Waits for momentum to align with the zone's direction.
Candlestick Confirmation (Engulfing): Waits for a strong reversal candle inside the zone.
Lower Timeframe MSS Confirmation: The most advanced filter; waits for a trend shift on a lower timeframe before giving a signal.
Historical Confirmation:
Require Historical Confirmation: Toggle the "Memory" feature on/off. Turn it off to see all potential SM zones.
Tolerance Calculation Method: Choose between a dynamic ATR Multiplier (recommended for all-around use) or a fixed Percentage to define the zone size.
