Outside Candle Session Breakout [CHE]Outside Candle Session Breakout
Session - anchored HTF levels for clear market-structure and precise breakout context
Summary
This indicator is a relevant market-structure tool. It anchors the session to the first higher-timeframe bar, then activates only when the second bar forms an outside condition. Price frequently reacts around these anchors, which provides precise breakout context and a clear overview on both lower and higher timeframes. Robustness comes from close-based validation, an adaptive volatility and tick buffer, first-touch enforcement, optional retest, one-signal-per-session, cooldown, and an optional trend filter.
Pine version: v6. Overlay: true.
Motivation: Why this design?
Short-term breakout tools often trigger during noise, duplicate within the same session, or drift when volatility shifts. The core idea is to gate signals behind a meaningful structure event: a first-bar anchor and a subsequent outside bar on the session timeframe. This narrows attention to structurally important breaks while adaptive buffering and debouncing reduce false or mid-run triggers.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Baseline: Simple high-low breaks or fixed buffers without session context.
Architecture: Session-anchored first-bar high/low; outside-bar gate; close-based confirmation with an adaptive ATR and tick buffer; first-touch enforcement; optional retest window; one-signal-per-session and cooldown; optional EMA trend and slope filter; higher-timeframe aggregation with lookahead disabled; themeable visuals and a range fill between levels.
Practical effect: Cleaner timing at structurally relevant levels, fewer redundant or late triggers, and better multi-timeframe situational awareness.
How it works (technical)
The chart timeframe is mapped to an analysis timeframe and a session timeframe.
The first session bar defines the anchor high and low. The setup becomes active only after the next bar forms an outside range relative to that first bar.
While active, the script tracks these anchors and checks for a breakout beyond a buffered threshold, using closing prices or wicks by preference.
The buffer scales with volatility and is limited by a minimum tick floor. First-touch enforcement avoids mid-run confirmations.
Optional retest requires a pullback to the raw anchor followed by a new close beyond the buffered level within a user window.
Optional trend gating uses an EMA on the analysis timeframe, including an optional slope requirement and price-location check.
Higher-timeframe data is requested with lookahead disabled. Values can update during a forming higher-timeframe bar; waiting and confirmation mitigate timing shifts.
Parameter Guide
Enable Long / Enable Short — Direction toggles. Default: true / true. Reduces unwanted side.
Wait Candles — Minimum bars after outside confirmation before entries. Default: five. More waiting increases stability.
Close-based Breakout — Confirm on candle close beyond buffer. Default: true. For wick sensitivity, disable.
ATR Buffer — Enables adaptive volatility buffer. Default: true.
ATR Multiplier — Buffer scaling. Default: zero point two. Increase to reduce noise.
Ticks Buffer — Minimum buffer in ticks. Default: two. Protects in quiet markets.
Cooldown Bars — Blocks new signals after a trigger. Default: three.
One Signal per Session — Prevents duplicates within a session. Default: true.
Require Retest — Pullback to raw anchor before confirming. Default: false.
Retest Window — Bars allowed for retest completion. Default: five.
HTF Trend Filter — EMA-based gating. Default: false.
EMA Length — EMA period. Default: two hundred.
Slope — Require EMA slope direction. Default: true.
Price Above/Below EMA — Require price location relative to EMA. Default: true.
Show Levels / Highlight Session / Show Signals — Visual controls. Default: true.
Color Theme — “Blue-Green” (default), “Monochrome”, “Earth Tones”, “Classic”, “Dark”.
Time Period Box — Visibility, size, position, and colors for the info box. (Optional)
Reading & Interpretation
The two level lines represent the session’s first-bar high and low. The filled band illustrates the active session range.
“OUT” marks that the outside condition is confirmed and the setup is live.
“LONG” or “SHORT” appears only when the breakout clears buffer, debounce, and optional gates.
Background tint indicates sessions where the setup is valid.
Alerts fire on confirmed long or short breakout events.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend-following: Keep close-based validation, ATR buffer near the default, one-signal-per-session enabled; add EMA trend and slope for directional bias.
Retest confirmation: Enable retest with a short window to prioritize cleaner continuation after a pullback.
Lower-timeframe scalping: Reduce waiting and cooldown slightly; keep a small tick buffer to filter micro-whips.
Swing and position context: Increase ATR multiplier and waiting; maintain once-per-session to limit duplicates.
Timeframe Tiers and Trader Profiles
The script adapts its internal mapping based on the chart timeframe:
Under fifteen minutes → Analysis: one minute; Session: sixty minutes. Useful for scalpers and high-frequency intraday reads.
Between fifteen and under sixty minutes → Analysis: fifteen minutes; Session: one day. Suits day traders who need intraday alignment to the daily session.
Between sixty minutes and under one day → Analysis: sixty minutes; Session: one week. Serves intraday-to-swing transitions and end-of-day planning.
Between one day and under one week → Analysis: two hundred forty minutes; Session: two weeks. Fits swing traders who monitor multi-day structure.
Between one week and under thirty days → Analysis: one day; Session: three months. Supports position traders seeking quarterly context.
Thirty days and above → Analysis: one day; Session: twelve months. Provides a broad annual anchor for macro context.
These tiers are designed to keep anchors meaningful across regimes while preserving responsiveness appropriate to the trader profile.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Signals can be validated on closed bars through close-based logic; enabling this reduces intrabar flicker.
Higher-timeframe values may evolve during a forming bar; waiting parameters and the outside-bar gate reduce, but do not remove, this effect.
Resource footprint is light; the script uses standard indicators and a single higher-timeframe request per stream.
Known limits: rare setups during very quiet periods, sensitivity to gaps, and reduced reliability on illiquid symbols.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with close-based validation on, ATR buffer on with a multiplier near zero point two, tick buffer two, cooldown three, once-per-session on.
Too many flips: increase the ATR multiplier and cooldown; consider enabling the EMA filter and slope.
Too sluggish: reduce the ATR multiplier and waiting; disable retest.
Choppy conditions: keep close-based validation, increase tick buffer, shorten the retest window.

Digital RPM HUD — 4 Feeds + Confidence + Timeline (v3)🏎️ Digital RPM HUD — 4 Feeds + Confidence + Timeline (v3)
A performance-style trading dashboard for momentum-driven traders.
The Digital RPM HUD gives you an instant visual readout of market “engine speed” — combining four customizable data feeds (Trend, Momentum, Volume, Volatility) into a single confidence score (0–100) and a color-coded timeline of regime changes.
Think of it as a racing-inspired control panel: you only “hit the throttle” when confidence is high and all systems agree.
🔧 Key Features
4 Data Feeds – assign your own logic (EMA, RSI, RVOL, ATR, etc.).
Confidence Meter – blends the four feeds into one smooth 0–100 reading.
Timeline Strip – shows recent bullish / bearish / neutral states at a glance.
Visual Trade Cues – optional on-chart LONG / SHORT / EXIT markers.
Fully Customizable – thresholds, weights, smoothing, colors, layout.
HUD Overlay – clean, minimal, and adjustable to any corner of your chart.
💡 How to Use
Configure each feed to reflect your preferred signals (e.g., trend EMA 200, momentum RSI 14, volume RVOL 20, volatility ATR 14).
Watch the Confidence gauge:
✅ Above Bull Threshold → Market acceleration / long bias.
❌ Below Bear Threshold → Momentum loss / short bias.
⚪ Between thresholds → Neutral zone; stay patient.
Use the Timeline to confirm trend consistency — more green = bullish regime, more red = bearish.
⚙️ Recommended Setups
Scalping: Trend EMA 50 + RSI 7 + RVOL 10 + ATR 7 → Fast response.
Intraday: EMA 200 + RSI 14 + RVOL 20 + ATR 14 → Balanced signal.
Swing: Multi-TF Trend + MACD + RVOL + ATR → Smooth and steady.

50% Fib Trend Cloud + ATR BandsThis indicator plots two structural 50% fibonacci midpoints from recent confirmed 'left/right' swings that form a *cloud* of equilibrium, then adds a rolling 50% fibonacci range midpoint based on a lookback window that's wrapped in ATR bands. Importantly, it solves a specific trading problem:
Structural midpoints (macro context) are powerful but can lag when price escapes prior ranges. Enter rolling 50% fib + ATR ➡️ which restores real-time balance & tolerance (micro context). Together they show where price is balanced structurally, where it’s balanced right now, and how much volatility to tolerate before acting.
➖➖➖
🔑 Why this is different
Most tools either draw a single midpoint (ex., daily 50%) or ATR bands around a moving average. This script fuses dual swing-based 50% midpoints (structure) + a rolling 50% with ATR (flow), so you don’t lose context when price escapes prior ranges. The cloud tells you who’s in control (fast vs. slow structure). The rolling 50% + ATR tells you how far is “too far” now.
➖➖➖
🧠 What it does (at a glance)
🔸Structural Equilibrium × 2 (Fib1/Fib2)
Two independent 50% midpoints formed from swing pivots (configurable Left/Right bars + optional smoothing). Their gap is the Midpoint Cloud = structural “fair value” zone.
🔸Rolling 50% + ATR Bands
A rolling highest/lowest window computes an always-current 50% rolling midpoint plot; ±ATR × length envelopes define a soft value area and over-stretch boundaries.
🔸Actionable Visuals
Optional fill between Fib1/Fib2, labels, and candle-overlay modes to instantly read regime (above both / below both / between).
🔸Smart Defaults
Timeframe-aware presets for L/R pivots & smoothing; full manual overrides available.
➖➖➖
⚙️ Calculations (plain-English)
🔸Pivot midpoints (Fib1 & Fib2):
1) Detect a swing using `Left/Right` bars
2) Take the swing’s high/low → compute 50%
3) (Optional) Smooth the line (SMA) to stabilize on noisy TFs
4) Repeat with a different sensitivity to get two distinct midpoints
🔸Rolling midpoint:
Highest High / Lowest Low over the last *N* bars → (HH + LL) / 2
🔸ATR levels:
`Upper = Rolling50 + ATR × Mult`, `Lower = Rolling50 − ATR × Mult`
(Typical: ATR length 14–21; Multipliers 2.236 for L1, 5.382 for L2)
➖➖➖
🤖 Auto-Configured Presets (with Manual Override)
💡Goal: make the midpoints “just work” on common timeframes while still letting you dial them in.
💡How Auto Presets work
When Auto Presets = ON, the script picks sensible L/R/S (Left bars / Right bars / Smoothing) for Fib Trend 1 and Fib Trend 2 based on chart timeframe.
🔸Fib 1 (fast) emphasizes *micro-structure* for quicker bias shifts.
🔸Fib 2 (slow) emphasizes *macro-structure* for anchor/bias context.
These defaults keep Fib 1 responsive without jitter and Fib 2 stable without lag.
➡️ Turn Auto Presets = OFF to take full control with the manual inputs described below.
➖➖➖
🛠 Manual Fib Midpoint Settings (when Auto = OFF)
💡Each midpoint uses three knobs:
🔸Pivot Left (L): bars to the left that must be lower/higher to qualify a swing
🔸Pivot Right (R): bars to the right that must be lower/higher to confirm the swing
🔸Smoothing (S): SMA period applied to the raw 50% midpoint (stabilizes noise)
5-Minute optimized defaults
🔸Fib Trend 1: `L21 / R5 / S55` → responsive local structure (entries/exits, re-balancing zones)
🔸Fib Trend 2: `L55 / R13 / S89` → broader structure (trend context, anchors/stops)
Timeframe guidance
🔸1m–3m: may feel a touch laggy → consider ~`L13 / R3 / S34`
🔸15m–1h: defaults remain strong → optionally ~`L34 / R8 / S89`
🔸4h+ : increase span for stability → `L89–144 / R13–21 / S144–233`
➡️ Rule of thumb: shorter L/R = faster detection, longer S = smoother line. Tune until Fib 1 captures the “active swing” and Fib 2 captures the “dominant swing” without whipsaw.
➖➖➖
🎛 Inputs (quick reference)
🔸Fib Trend 1/2: Source (High/Low/Close), Left/Right bars, Smoothing length, Show/Hide, Cloud fill toggle
🔸Rolling 50%: Lookback length, Price basis (Wicks/Close/HLC3/OHLC4), Plot scope (Full / Last N / None)
🔸ATR Bands: ATR length, Multipliers (L1/L2), Plot scope, Line width/colors
🔸Overlay & Labels: Candle overlay mode, Label padding/size, 50% centerline toggle, Plot widths
➖➖➖
🖍️ Candle Coloring & Overlay Modes
💡Purpose: make trend instantly visible on the candles and ATR levels.
1) Color Logic (dropdown)
🔸 Fib Midpoints — Colors by position of price vs. Fib 1 & Fib 2
🔸ATR Zones — Colors by which ATR zone price is in relative to the Rolling 50%
➡️ Price Reference: Choose the input used for the decision (Close, HL2, OHLC3, OHLC4).
➡️Tip: Close is crisp; HL2/OHLC variants are smoother.
2) Overlay Style (dropdown)
🔸 None — No visual change to candles
🔸 Bar Color — Uses `barcolor()` to tint built-in candles (this takes into account your Trading View settings, for instance if you have wicks set to white, they will show up as white with this setting)
🔸 PlotCandles — Draws unified custom candles (body, wick, border) with the same color for maximum clarity
💡Practical use
🔸 Pick Fib Midpoints to read structural bias at a glance (above/below/between the cloud).
🔸 Pick ATR Zones to read value vs. stretch around the Rolling 50% (mean-reversion vs. trend extension).
➖➖➖
📘 How to use
A) Trend confirmation
- Strong bullish bias when price holds above both structural mids; strong bearish when below both.
- Use the Rolling 50% + ATR as a dynamic re-entry zone: pullbacks that respect ATR(L1) often continue the prevailing trend.
B) Transition / mean reversion
- Inside the Cloud (between Fib1 & Fib2) treat behavior as neutralization/re-balancing; range tactics tend to outperform momentum plays.
- In ranges, fades near ±ATR around the rolling 50% can mark short-term edges.
C) Breakout context
- When price leaves the Cloud, the Rolling 50% keeps you anchored so price never feels “floating.” A clean hold outside ATR(L1/L2) suggests regime strength; quick re-entries hint at traps.
➖➖➖
🖼 Chart examples
➡️ Each snapshot shows how the Cloud (structure) and the Rolling 50% + ATR (flow) work together.
1) 1-Minute Downtrend – Cloud as Dynamic Ceiling
- The Cloud slopes down; pullbacks repeatedly fail under the Cloud’s underside.
- Rolling 50% (dashed mid) + ATR(L1) act as a reversion band: rallies stall near upper ATR and rotate lower.
2) 15-Minute Persistent Drift – Structure Guides, Flow Times Entries
- Long drift lower with Cloud overhead.
- Consolidations near the rolling mid resolve in the trend direction; ATR bands frame risk on each attempt.
3) 15-Minute Uptrend (BTC) – From Cloud Escape to Value Stair-Step
- After escaping the prior Cloud, rolling 50% + ATR establish a new higher value area.
- Pullbacks into ATR(L1) produce orderly stair-steps; Cloud remains supportive on deeper dips
4) 5-Minute BTC – Pullback to Value then Rotate
- Strong leg up; retrace tags lower ATR band and rotates back toward the rolling mid.
- Labels (Fib1/Fib2) make the structural context explicit for decision-making.
➖➖➖
🧪 Starter presets
- Intraday (5–15m): Fib1 ~ L21/R5 (smooth 5), Fib2 ~ L55/R13 (smooth 9) • Rolling = 55 • ATR = 14 • L1 = 2.5x, L2 = 5.0x
- Scalping: Shorten lookbacks & smoothing; keep ATR multipliers similar, or tighten L1.
- Swing: Lengthen all lookbacks; consider ATR length 21–28.
➖➖➖

Trend Fib Zone Bounce (TFZB) [KedArc Quant]Description:
Trend Fib Zone Bounce (TFZB) trades with the latest confirmed Supply/Demand zone using a single, configurable Fib pullback (0.3/0.5/0.6). Trade only in the direction of the most recent zone and use a single, configurable fib level for pullback entries.
• Detects market structure via confirmed swing highs/lows using a rolling window.
• Draws Supply/Demand zones (bearish/bullish rectangles) from the latest MSS (CHOCH or BOS) event.
• Computes intra zone Fib guide rails and keeps them extended in real time.
• Triggers BUY only inside bullish zones and SELL only inside bearish zones when price touches the selected fib and closes back beyond it (bounce confirmation).
• Optional labels print BULL/BEAR + fib next to the triangle markers.
What it does
Finds structure using confirmed swing highs/lows (you choose the confirmation length).
Builds the latest zone (bullish = demand, bearish = supply) after a CHOCH/BOS event.
Draws intra-zone “guide rails” (Fib lines) and extends them live.
Signals only with the trend of that zone:
BUY inside a bullish zone when price tags the selected Fib and closes back above it.
SELL inside a bearish zone when price tags the selected Fib and closes back below it.
Optional labels print BULL/BEAR + Fib next to triangles for quick context
Why this is different
Most “zone + fib + signal” tools bolt together several indicators, or fire counter-trend signals because they don’t fully respect structure. TFZB is intentionally minimal:
Single bias source: the latest confirmed zone defines direction; nothing else overrides it.
Single entry rule: one Fib bounce (0.3/0.5/0.6 selectable) inside that zone—no counter-trend trades by design.
Clean visuals: you can show only the most recent zone, clamp overlap, and keep just the rails that matter.
Deterministic & transparent: every plot/label comes from the code you see—no external series or hidden smoothing
How it helps traders
Cuts decision noise: you always know the bias and the only entry that matters right now.
Forces discipline: if price isn’t inside the active zone, you don’t trade.
Adapts to volatility: pick 0.3 in strong trends, 0.5 as the default, 0.6 in chop.
Non-repainting zones: swings are confirmed after Structure Length bars, then used to build zones that extend forward (they don’t “teleport” later)
How it works (details)
*Structure confirmation
A swing high/low is only confirmed after Structure Length bars have elapsed; the dot is plotted back on the original bar using offset. Expect a confirmation delay of about Structure Length × timeframe.
*Zone creation
After a CHOCH/BOS (momentum shift / break of prior swing), TFZB draws the new Supply/Demand zone from the swing anchors and sets it active.
*Fib guide rails
Inside the active zone TFZB projects up to five Fib lines (defaults: 0.3 / 0.5 / 0.7) and extends them as time passes.
*Entry logic (with-trend only)
BUY: bar’s low ≤ fib and close > fib inside a bullish zone.
SELL: bar’s high ≥ fib and close < fib inside a bearish zone.
*Optionally restrict to one signal per zone to avoid over-trading.
(Optional) Aggressive confirm-bar entry
When do the swing dots print?
* The code confirms a swing only after `structureLen` bars have elapsed since that candidate high/low.
* On a 5-min chart with `structureLen = 10`, that’s about 50 minutes later.
* When the swing confirms, the script plots the dot back on the original bar (via `offset = -structureLen`). So you *see* the dot on the old bar, but it only appears on the chart once the confirming bar arrives.
> Practical takeaway: expect swing markers to appear roughly `structureLen × timeframe` later. Zones and signals are built from those confirmed swings.
Best timeframe for this Indicator
Use the timeframe that matches your holding period and the noise level of the instrument:
* Intraday :
* 5m or 15m are the sweet spots.
* Suggested `structureLen`:
* 5m: 10–14 (confirmation delay \~50–70 min)
* 15m: 8–10 (confirmation delay \~2–2.5 hours)
* Keep Entry Fib at 0.5 to start; try 0.3 in strong trends, 0.6 in chop.
* Tip: avoid the first 10–15 minutes after the open; let the initial volatility set the early structure.
* Swing/overnight:
* 1h or 4h.
* `structureLen`:
* 1h: 6–10 (6–10 hours confirmation)
* 4h: 5–8 (20–32 hours confirmation)
* 1m scalping: not recommended here—the confirmation lag relative to the noise makes zones less reliable.
Inputs (all groups)
Structure
• Show Swing Points (structureTog)
o Plots small dots on the bar where a swing point is confirmed (offset back by Structure Length).
• Structure Length (structureLen)
o Lookback used to confirm swing highs/lows and determine local structure. Higher = fewer, stronger swings; lower = more reactive.
Zones
• Show Last (zoneDispNum)
o Maximum number of zones kept on the chart when Display All Zones is off.
• Display All Zones (dispAll)
o If on, ignores Show Last and keeps all zones/levels.
• Zone Display (zoneFilter): Bullish Only / Bearish Only / Both
o Filters which zone types are drawn and eligible for signals.
• Clean Up Level Overlap (noOverlap)
o Prevents fib lines from overlapping when a new zone starts near the previous one (clamps line start/end times for readability).
Fib Levels
Each row controls whether a fib is drawn and how it looks:
• Toggle (f1Tog…f5Tog): Show/hide a given fib line.
• Level (f1Lvl…f5Lvl): Numeric ratio in . Defaults active: 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 (0 and 1 off by default).
• Line Style (f1Style…f5Style): Solid / Dashed / Dotted.
• Bull/Bear Colors (f#BullColor, f#BearColor): Per-fib color in bullish vs bearish zones.
Style
• Structure Color: Dot color for confirmed swing points.
• Bullish Zone Color / Bearish Zone Color: Rectangle fills (transparent by default).
Signals
• Entry Fib for Signals (entryFibSel): Choose 0.3, 0.5 (default), or 0.6 as the trigger line.
• Show Buy/Sell Signals (showSignals): Toggles triangle markers on/off.
• One Signal Per Zone (oneSignalPerZone): If on, suppresses additional entries within the same zone after the first trigger.
• Show Signal Text Labels (Bull/Bear + Fib) (showSignalLabels): Adds a small label next to each triangle showing zone bias and the fib used (e.g., BULL 0.5 or BEAR 0.3).
How TFZB decides signals
With trend only:
• BUY
1. Latest active zone is bullish.
2. Current bar’s close is inside the zone (between top and bottom).
3. The bar’s low ≤ selected fib and it closes > selected fib (bounce).
• SELL
1. Latest active zone is bearish.
2. Current bar’s close is inside the zone.
3. The bar’s high ≥ selected fib and it closes < selected fib.
Markers & labels
• BUY: triangle up below the bar; optional label “BULL 0.x” above it.
• SELL: triangle down above the bar; optional label “BEAR 0.x” below it.
Right-Panel Swing Log (Table)
What it is
A compact, auto-updating log of the most recent Swing High/Low events, printed in the top-right of the chart.
It helps you see when a pivot formed, when it was confirmed, and at what price—so you know the earliest bar a zone-based signal could have appeared.
Columns
Type – Swing High or Swing Low.
Date – Calendar date of the swing bar (follows the chart’s timezone).
Swing @ – Time of the original swing bar (where the dot is drawn).
Confirm @ – Time of the bar that confirmed that swing (≈ Structure Length × timeframe after the swing). This is also the earliest moment a new zone/entry can be considered.
Price – The swing price (high for SH, low for SL).
Why it’s useful
Clarity on repaint/confirmation: shows the natural delay between a swing forming and being usable—no guessing.
Planning & journaling: quick reference of today’s pivots and prices for notes/backtesting.
Scanning intraday: glance to see if you already have a confirmed zone (and therefore valid fib-bounce entries), or if you’re still waiting.
Context for signals: if a fib-bounce triangle appears before the time listed in Confirm @, it’s not a valid trade (you were too early).
Settings (Inputs → Logging)
Log swing times / Show table – turn the table on/off.
Rows to keep – how many recent entries to display.
Show labels on swing bar – optional tags on the chart (“Swing High 11:45”, “Confirm SH 14:15”) that match the table.
Recommended defaults
• Structure Length: 10–20 for intraday; 20–40 for swing.
• Entry Fib for Signals: 0.5 to start; try 0.3 in stronger trends and 0.6 in choppier markets.
• One Signal Per Zone: ON (prevents over trading).
• Zone Display: Both.
• Fib Lines: Keep 0.3/0.5/0.7 on; turn on 0 and 1 only if you need anchors.
Alerts
Two alert conditions are available:
• BUY signal – fires when a with trend bullish bounce at the selected fib occurs inside a bullish zone.
• SELL signal – fires when a with trend bearish bounce at the selected fib occurs inside a bearish zone.
Create alerts from the chart’s Alerts panel and select the desired condition. Use Once Per Bar Close to avoid intrabar flicker.
Notes & tips
• Swing dots are confirmed only after Structure Length bars, so they plot back in time; zones built from these confirmed swings do not repaint (though they extend as new bars form).
• If you don’t see a BUY where you expect one, check: (1) Is the active zone bullish? (2) Did the candle’s low actually pierce the selected fib and close above it? (3) Is One Signal Per Zone suppressing a second entry?
• You can hide visual clutter by reducing Show Last to 1–3 while keeping Display All Zones off.
Glossary
• CHOCH (Change of Character): A shift where price breaks beyond the last opposite swing while local momentum flips.
• BOS (Break of Structure): A cleaner break beyond the prior swing level in the current momentum direction.
• MSS: Either CHOCH or BOS – any event that spawns a new zone.
Extension ideas (optional)
• Add fib extensions (1.272 / 1.618) for target lines.
• Zone quality score using ATR normalization to filter weak impulses.
• HTF filter to only accept zones aligned with a higher timeframe trend.

VWAP Momentum Oscillator How It Works
Core Calculation Method
The oscillator combines four key market measurements into a single, normalized reading:
1. Price-VWAP Deviation: `(Close - VWAP) / VWAP × 100`
2. VWAP-MA Momentum: `(VWAP - MovingAverage) / MovingAverage × 100`
3. Anchored VWAP Strength: Average of high/low anchor deviations from rolling VWAP
4. Range Position: `(Close - PeriodLow) / (PeriodHigh - PeriodLow) × 100 - 50`
Dynamic Signal Line
The signal line uses an EMA that automatically adjusts its length based on your chart timeframe:
- Futures: Always covers 23 hours of trading (1,380 minutes)
- Stocks: Always covers 6.5 hours of trading (390 minutes)
- Examples: 276 periods on 5-min futures chart, 1,380 periods on 1-min futures chart

Version History & Development
This oscillator evolved from advanced VWAP overlay strategies, transforming complex multi-line analysis into a single, actionable momentum gauge. The indicator maintains the sophistication of institutional VWAP analysis while providing the clarity needed for retail trading decisions.
Core Philosophy
Traditional VWAP indicators show where price is relative to volume-weighted averages, but they don't quantify momentum or provide clear entry/exit signals. This oscillator solves that problem by normalizing all VWAP relationships into a single, bounded indicator that works consistently across all timeframes and asset classes.

RSI Dynamic Bands█ OVERVIEW
The "RSI Dynamic Bands" indicator is a variant of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) oscillator that brings its signals directly onto the price chart. It displays dynamic bands around the price, adjusted based on RSI levels, enabling easy identification of potential overbought or oversold conditions. The indicator also integrates a multi-timeframe RSI table, facilitating the analysis of trend strength across different timeframes.
█ CONCEPTS
The "RSI Dynamic Bands" indicator is designed to simplify the interpretation of price levels in the context of support and resistance zones, which can be correlated with other technical indicators and RSI values. Since the price itself does not display RSI values, a table showing RSI for four selected timeframes has been added, allowing traders to quickly assess trend strength across different time intervals. The most effective approach is to combine the indicator with other technical analysis tools, such as Fibonacci levels or pivot points, to confirm signals when the price approaches the bands and RSI values indicate a potential reversal.
Band Calculation
The bands are calculated based on the current closing price and RSI values, incorporating dynamic scaling to better adapt to market conditions. The formulas for the bands are as follows:
• Upper Band: close + (rsiUpper - rsi) * scaleFactor, where rsiUpper is the upper RSI level (default: 70), and scaleFactor accounts for market volatility.
• Lower Band: close + (rsiLower - rsi) * scaleFactor, where rsiLower is the lower RSI level (default: 30).
• Midline: The arithmetic average of the upper and lower bands: (upperBand + lowerBand) / 2.
Why Scaling? Without scaling, the bands would be chaotic and jagged, making them difficult to interpret. Scaling smooths the bands, making them wider during periods of high volatility and narrower during consolidation, better reflecting potential support and resistance levels.
Indicator Features
• Dynamic Price Bands: The bands adapt to market conditions, facilitating the identification of key price levels.
• Multi-Timeframe RSI Table: Displays RSI values for four selected timeframes (default: 15m, 1h, 4h, Daily), enabling comparison of trend strength across different perspectives.
• Style Customization: Users can adjust band colors, line thickness, and toggle the visibility of bands, fills, and the table.
How to Set Up the Indicator
1 — Add the "RSI Dynamic Bands" indicator to your TradingView chart.

█ OTHER SECTIONS
FEATURES
• RSI Length: The period for calculating RSI (default: 14).
• RSI Levels: Thresholds for overbought (default: 70) and oversold (default: 30).
• Scaling Multiplier: Adjusts bands based on market volatility (default: 0.15).
• Table Timeframes: Select four timeframes for the RSI table (default: 15m, 1h, 4h, Daily).
• Style Options: Customize band colors, fills, table, and line thickness.
HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to your chart, configure the parameters, and observe price interactions with the bands to identify potential entry and exit points. The RSI table allows you to compare RSI values across different timeframes, aiding in trading decisions. The most effective approach is to combine the indicator with other technical analysis tools, such as Fibonacci levels or pivot points, to confirm signals when the price approaches the bands and RSI values indicate a potential reversal.
Trading Strategies:
• Scalping: Use lower timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m) in the RSI table to quickly identify short-term lows and highs. Wait for the price to approach the lower band in the RSI oversold zone, with RSI on lower timeframes starting to rise, and other tools, such as Fibonacci levels (e.g., 38.2%) or pivot points, confirming support.
• Medium-Term Trading: Focus on 1h and 4h timeframes. Look for confirmation of a low on a lower timeframe (e.g., 1h), where RSI indicates oversold conditions or starts rising, then check if RSI on a higher timeframe (e.g., 4h) confirms the trend. Confirmation from other tools, such as a Fibonacci level (e.g., 50%) or pivot point near the bands, strengthens the signal.
• Long-Term Trading: Use Daily and higher timeframes (e.g., Weekly). Wait for all relevant timeframes to confirm a low (e.g., RSI near oversold and price at the lower band), with lower timeframes (e.g., 4h) showing rising RSI. Other tools, such as Fibonacci levels (e.g., 61.8%) or pivot points near the bands, can further confirm a trend reversal signal.
Adaptive Weighted Regression Channel (AWRC)Short Description:
The Adaptive Weighted Regression Channel (AWRC) is an advanced technical analysis tool that plots a dynamic regression channel based on the recent price action. The centerline is a linear regression (trendline) fitted to the selected price source over a rolling window. The channel boundaries are placed above and below the regression line by a user-selected multiple of the weighted standard deviation.
What makes AWRC unique is its ability to optionally weight each bar’s importance in the regression using Volume, ATR (Average True Range), or Recency Decay, offering a channel that can adapt to market volatility, participation, or trend acceleration.
Parameter Explanations:
length: Number of bars for the regression window (how many recent candles are included). Higher values = smoother, less sensitive channel.
StdDev Multiplier (mult): Controls the channel width. 2.0 is classic; higher = wider channels, lower = tighter.
Enable Weighting?: Turn ON to activate weighting of each bar. If OFF, all bars are equally weighted (classic regression channel).
Weight Type: Select what to use for weights (only active if Enable Weighting is ON):
"Volume": Higher volume bars have more influence on the regression.
"ATR": Bars with higher volatility (as measured by ATR) have more influence.
"Decay": More recent bars are given more weight (controlled by Decay parameter).
Decay: If Weight Type is "Decay", this controls the rate of recency decay. (e.g. 0.98 = slow decay; 0.90 = fast decay; values close to 1 mean a longer memory.)
Source for the calculation (src): Selects which price is regressed. Default is hl2 (average of high and low); you can choose close, open, etc.
Recommended Parameters:
For general use: length = 34, mult = 2.0, Enable Weighting = OFF, src = hl2
For volume-aware channel: Enable Weighting = ON, Weight Type = "Volume"
For volatility sensitivity: Enable Weighting = ON, Weight Type = "ATR"
For extra focus on recent price: Enable Weighting = ON, Weight Type = "Decay", Decay = 0.95 or 0.98
For swing trading: length = 21–55, mult = 1.5–2.5
For intraday/scalping: length = 10–20, mult = 1.0–1.5
Usage Tips:
The regression line shows the "best fit" trend for the selected window.
The channel captures the typical range; price breaking outside the channel can signal strength, exhaustion, or breakout.
Volume and ATR weighting help the channel adapt to market participation or volatility spikes.
Decay weighting locks onto the most recent trend direction quickly.
Adjust parameters to fit your timeframe and market volatility.
Use AWRC to spot trending moves, reversals, or overextensions.

TREV Candles - Range-Based Trend ReversalTREV Candles - Range-Based Trend Reversal Chart Implementation
What is a Trend Reversal (TREV) Chart?
A Trend Reversal chart, also known as a Point & Figure chart variation, is a unique charting method that focuses on price movement thresholds rather than time intervals. Unlike traditional candlestick charts where each candle represents a fixed time period, TREV candles form only when price moves by predefined amounts in ticks.
TREV charts eliminate time-based noise and focus purely on significant price movements, making them ideal for identifying genuine trend changes and continuation patterns.
How TREV Candles Work
This indicator implements true TREV logic with two critical thresholds:
Trend Size: The number of ticks price must move in the current direction to form a trend continuation candle
Reversal Size: The number of ticks price must move against the current direction to form a reversal candle and change the overall trend direction
Key TREV Rules Enforced:
Direction Changes Only Through Reversals: You cannot go from bullish trend directly to bearish trend - a reversal candle must occur first
Threshold-Based Formation: Candles form only when price thresholds are breached, not on time
Logical Wick Placement: Wicks only appear on the "open" side of candles where price temporarily moved against the formation direction
Multiple Candles Per Bar: When price moves significantly, several TREV candles can form within a single time-based bar
Four Distinct Candle Types
Bullish Trend (Green): Continues upward movement when trend threshold is hit
Bearish Trend (Red): Continues downward movement when trend threshold is hit
Bullish Reversal (Blue): Changes from bearish to bullish direction when reversal threshold is breached
Bearish Reversal (Orange): Changes from bullish to bearish direction when reversal threshold is breached
Practical Trading Applications
Trend Identification: Clear visual representation of when trends are continuing vs. reversing
Noise Reduction: Filters out insignificant price movements that don't meet threshold requirements
Support/Resistance: TREV levels often act as significant support and resistance zones
Breakout Confirmation: When price forms multiple trend candles in succession, it confirms strong directional movement
Reversal Signals: Reversal candles provide early warning of potential trend changes
Technical Implementation Features
Intelligent Price Path Processing: Analyzes the assumed price path within each bar (Low→High→Close for bullish bars, High→Low→Close for bearish bars)
Automatic Tick Size Detection: Works with any instrument by automatically detecting the correct tick size
Manual Override Option: Allows manual tick size specification for custom analysis
Impossible Scenario Prevention: Built-in logic prevents impossible wick configurations and direction changes
PineScript Optimization: Efficient state management and drawing limits handling for smooth performance
Comprehensive Styling Options
Each of the four candle types offers complete visual customization:
Body Colors: Independent color settings for each candle type's body
Border Colors: Separate border color customization
Border Styles: Choose from solid, dashed, or dotted borders
Wick Colors: Individual wick color settings for each candle type
Default Color Scheme:
🟢 Bullish Trend: Green body and wicks
🔵 Bullish Reversal: Blue body and wicks
🔴 Bearish Trend: Red body and wicks
🟠 Bearish Reversal: Orange body and wicks
Configuration Guidelines
Trend Size: Larger values create fewer, more significant trend candles. Smaller values increase sensitivity
Reversal Size: Should typically be smaller than trend size. Controls how easily the trend direction can change
Tick Size: Use "auto" for most instruments. Manual override useful for custom point values or backtesting
Ideal Use Cases
Swing Trading: Identify major trend changes and continuation patterns
Scalping: Use smaller thresholds to catch quick reversals and momentum shifts
Position Trading: Use larger thresholds to filter noise and focus on major trend moves
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Compare TREV patterns across different threshold settings
Support/Resistance Trading: TREV close levels often become significant price zones
Why This Implementation is Superior
True TREV Logic: Enforces proper trend reversal rules that many implementations ignore
No Impossible Scenarios: Prevents wicks on both sides of candles and impossible direction changes
Professional Visualization: Clean, customizable appearance suitable for serious analysis
Performance Optimized: Handles large datasets without lag or drawing limit issues
Educational Value: Helps traders understand the difference between time-based and threshold-based charting
Perfect for traders who want to see beyond time-based noise and focus on what price is actually doing - moving in significant, measurable amounts that matter for trading decisions.
EMA Curl Strength+EMA Curl Strength+
Description:
This indicator provides a statistically normalized view of EMA slope momentum using Z-score transformation. By evaluating the rate of change of an EMA and comparing it against its historical behavior, the script highlights momentum shifts in a dynamic, adaptive way.

• Divergence Detection: Spot divergences between price and Z Curl movement to anticipate reversals.
Pivot Channel LevelsPivot Channel Levels
Indicator Description
“Pivot Channel Levels” is an advanced technical analysis tool that identifies key price pivots (highs and lows) and creates dynamic support and resistance levels based on the wicks of candles at these points (or bodies if wicks are minimal). The indicator analyzes the volume at the time of a pivot’s formation, displaying its value and percentage change relative to the volume’s simple moving average (SMA).
It does not generate buy/sell signals but provides a clear visualization of market structure, helping traders identify potential price reaction zones and assess the strength of market movements.
Why Are Wicks Important?
Candle wicks at price pivots indicate significant market reactions in key areas. Depending on the context, they may signal rejection, testing, or absorption of a support or resistance level. Long wicks often appear where large players are active, and the marked zones are frequently retested. The indicator allows for quick identification and observation of their impact on future price action.
Why Use It?
- Precise Support and Resistance Levels: The indicator draws price channels based on candle wicks at pivots (or bodies if wicks are absent), enabling better identification of zones where price may react.
- Volume Analysis: It shows how the volume at a pivot differs from the average, indicating potential activity by large players or key market moments.
- Visual Clarity: Colored lines, channel fills, and clear labels facilitate quick chart analysis, even on short timeframes.
- Flexibility: Adjustable pivot length, volume average, and label colors allow customization to various trading strategies.
How It Works
- Pivot Detection: Automatically identifies local highs and lows based on the “Pivot Length” parameter (default: 20 candles). This means a pivot appears on the chart with a 20-candle delay. Reducing this value allows faster pivot detection (after fewer candles), increasing their number but potentially generating more noise.
- Channel Creation: Draws support and resistance levels based on the wicks of candles at pivot points (or bodies if wicks are minimal) with a delay to confirm zones. A pivot channel is drawn until the next pivot is identified, but if not previously broken, it remains valid as active support or resistance.
- Volume Analysis: Displays the volume at the pivot’s formation and its percentage change relative to the volume’s SMA.
- Visualization: Pivot and channel levels are shown as lines with fills, and labels display volume and its deviation from the average.
Trading Applications
- Swing Trading: Use pivot levels and channels to identify price reversal points or consolidation zones.
- Scalping: Monitor price reactions to channels on short timeframes, especially with high volume.
- Faster Pivot Identification: Switch to a lower timeframe (e.g., from H1 to M15) to identify pivots more quickly, allowing earlier reactions to price changes.
- Market Context Analysis: High volume at pivots may indicate significant levels likely to be retested.
- Combining with Other Tools: The indicator pairs well with Fibonacci retracement, supply/demand zones, or oscillators like RSI.
Settings and Customization
- Pivot Length: Determines how many candles back and forward are analyzed to detect pivots (default: 20). A smaller value increases sensitivity, a larger one enhances stability.
- Volume Average: Length of the SMA for volume (default: 20). Adjust to better reflect market characteristics.
- Label Colors: Choose colors for bullish and bearish pivot labels to match your chart style.
Usage Examples
- Identifying Key Zones: If the price approaches a pivot level with high volume (e.g., +50% relative to SMA), it may signal strong support or resistance.
- Breakout Confirmation: A channel breakout with high volume can indicate trend continuation.
- Price Reaction Analysis: Long wicks at pivots with high volume may signal level rejection by large players.
Notes for Users
- The indicator performs best on highly liquid markets (e.g., Forex, indices, cryptocurrencies).
- On short timeframes (e.g., M1, M5), it may generate more noise—adjust “Pivot Length” to suit your needs.
- Consider combining with other indicators to confirm signals derived from pivot and volume analysis.
VSA-Stopping VolumeVSA Stopping Volume Indicator
Stopping Volume occurs when candles show decreasing body sizes (narrow spreads) while volume steadily increases.
Example chart:
As you see:
3 consecutive candles in same direction (all green OR all red)
Body sizes (spreads) decreasing progressively: Candle 1 > Candle 2 > Candle 3
Volume increasing progressively: Volume 1 < Volume 2 < Volume 3
This pattern indicates price absorption - increased buying/selling pressure but declining price movement, often signaling exhaustion and potential reversal.
Indicator Features
This indicator detects Stopping Volume candlestick clusters with two signal types:
🔹 BUY/SELL Signals: Generated when pattern occurs at support/resistance zones
🔹 Directional Alerts (▲-green, ▼-red): Generated when pattern occurs outside key levels
Trading Guidelines:
⚠️ Auto-drawn S/R zones are reference only - manual level plotting recommended for accuracy
📊 Best for scalping: M5, M10, M15 timeframes
🛡️ Stop Loss: Place beyond the S/R zone you're trading
🎯 Take Profit: Based on your risk management
Key Concept: Volume expansion + price contraction = potential reversal, especially at SnR levels.
Perfect for scalpers looking to catch reversals at critical zones!
TEMA with Slope Color [MrBuCha]This TEMA indicator is particularly useful for trend following strategies. The key innovation here is using a higher timeframe (default 1-hour) to get a broader perspective on the trend direction, while the color-coding makes it immediately obvious whether the momentum is bullish (blue) or bearish (orange).
The 200-period length makes this more suitable for swing trading rather than day trading, as it filters out short-term noise and focuses on significant trend movements.
//
What is TEMA and How Does It Work?
TEMA (Triple Exponential Moving Average) is a technical indicator that builds upon the standard EMA to reduce lag and provide faster response to price changes. The calculation process is:
EMA1 = EMA of closing price with specified length
EMA2 = EMA of EMA1 with the same length
EMA3 = EMA of EMA2 with the same length
TEMA = 3 × (EMA1 - EMA2) + EMA3
This formula helps reduce the lag inherent in smoothing calculations, making TEMA more responsive to price movements compared to other moving averages.
Default Values
Length: 200 periods
Timeframe: "60" (1 hour)
Slope Colors
Blue: When TEMA is trending upward (tema_current > tema_previous)
Orange: When TEMA is trending downward (tema_current ≤ tema_previous)
Pros and Cons Summary
Advantages:
Fast Response: Reduces lag better than SMA and regular EMA
Easy to Use: Color-coded slope makes trend direction immediately visible
Multi-timeframe Capability: Can display TEMA from higher timeframes
Trend Following: Excellent for identifying trend direction
Visual Clarity: Clear color signals help with quick decision making
Disadvantages:
False Signals: Prone to whipsaws in sideways/choppy markets
Noise in Volatility: Frequent color changes during high volatility periods
Not Suitable for Scalping: Length of 200 is quite long for short-term trading
Still Lagging: Despite improvements, it remains a lagging indicator
Requires Confirmation: Should be used with other indicators for better accuracy
Best Use Cases:
Medium to long-term trend following
Identifying major trend changes
Multi-timeframe analysis
Combine with momentum oscillators for confirmation
Trading Tips:
Wait for color confirmation before entering trades
Use higher timeframe TEMA for overall trend bias
Combine with support/resistance levels
Avoid trading during consolidation periods
PhenLabs - Market Fluid Dynamics📊 Market Fluid Dynamics -
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
The Market Fluid Dynamics - Phen indicator is a new thinking regarding market analysis by modeling price action, volume, and volatility using a fluid system. It attempts to offer traders control over more profound market forces, such as momentum (speed), resistance (thickness), and buying/selling pressure. By visualizing such dynamics, the script allows the traders to decide on the prevailing market flow, its power, likely continuations, and zones of calmness and chaos, and thereby allows improved decision-making.
This measure avoids the usual difficulty of reconciling multiple, often contradictory, market indications by including them within a single overarching model. It moves beyond traditional binary indicators by providing a multi-dimensional view of market behavior, employing fluid dynamic analogs to describe complex interactions in an accessible manner.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Integrated Fluid Dynamics Model: Combines velocity, viscosity, pressure, and turbulence into a single indicator.
Normalized Metrics: Uses ATR and other normalization techniques for consistent readings across different assets and timeframes.
Dynamic Flow Visualization: Main flow line changes color and intensity based on direction and strength.
Turbulence Background: Visually represents market stability with a gradient background, from calm to turbulent.
Comprehensive Dashboard: Provides an at-a-glance summary of key fluid dynamic metrics.
Multi-Layer Smoothing: Employs several layers of EMA smoothing for a clearer, more responsive main flow line.
🔧 Core Components
Velocity Component: Measures price momentum (first derivative of price), normalized by ATR. It indicates the speed and direction of price changes.
Viscosity Component: Represents market resistance to price changes, derived from ATR relative to its historical average. Higher viscosity suggests it’s harder for prices to move.
Pressure Component: Quantifies the force created by volume and price range (close - open), normalized by ATR. It reflects buying or selling pressure.
Turbulence Detection: Calculates a Reynolds number equivalent to identify market stability, ranging from laminar (stable) to turbulent (chaotic).
Main Flow Indicator: Combines the above components, applying sensitivity and smoothing, to generate a primary signal of market direction and strength.
🔥 Key Features
Advanced Smoothing Algorithm: Utilizes multiple EMA layers on the raw flow calculation for a fluid and responsive main flow line, reducing noise while maintaining sensitivity.
Gradient Flow Coloring: The main flow line dynamically changes color from light to deep blue for bullish flow and light to deep red for bearish flow, with intensity reflecting flow strength. This provides an immediate visual cue of market sentiment and momentum.
Turbulence Level Background: The chart background changes color based on calculated turbulence (from calm gray to vibrant orange), offering an intuitive understanding of market stability and potential for erratic price action.
Informative Dashboard: A customizable on-screen table displays critical metrics like Flow State, Flow Strength, Market Viscosity, Turbulence, Pressure Force, Flow Acceleration, and Flow Continuity, allowing traders to quickly assess current market conditions.
Configurable Lookback and Sensitivity: Users can adjust the base lookback period for calculations and the sensitivity of the flow to viscosity, tailoring the indicator to different trading styles and market conditions.
Alert Conditions: Pre-defined alerts for flow direction changes (positive/negative crossover of zero line) and detection of high turbulence states.
🎨 Visualization
Main Flow Line: A smoothed line plotted below the main chart, colored blue for bullish flow and red for bearish flow. The intensity of the color (light to dark) indicates the strength of the flow. This line crossing the zero line can signal a change in market direction.
Zero Line: A dotted horizontal line at the zero level, serving as a baseline to gauge whether the market flow is positive (bullish) or negative (bearish).
Turbulence Background: The indicator pane’s background color changes based on the calculated turbulence level. A calm, almost transparent gray indicates low turbulence (laminar flow), while a more vibrant, semi-transparent orange signifies high turbulence. This helps traders visually assess market stability.
Dashboard Table: An optional table displayed on the chart, showing key metrics like ‘Flow State’, ‘Flow Strength’, ‘Market Viscosity’, ‘Turbulence’, ‘Pressure Force’, ‘Flow Acceleration’, and ‘Flow Continuity’ with their current values and qualitative descriptions (e.g., ‘Bullish Flow’, ‘Laminar (Stable)’).
📖 Usage Guidelines
Setting Categories
Show Dashboard - Default: true; Range: true/false; Description: Toggles the visibility of the Market Fluid Dynamics dashboard on the chart. Enable to see key metrics at a glance.
Base Lookback Period - Default: 14; Range: 5 - (no upper limit, practical limits apply); Description: Sets the primary lookback period for core calculations like velocity, ATR, and volume SMA. Shorter periods make the indicator more sensitive to recent price action, while longer periods provide a smoother, slower signal.
Flow Sensitivity - Default: 0.5; Range: 0.1 - 1.0 (step 0.1); Description: Adjusts how much the market viscosity dampens the raw flow. A lower value means viscosity has less impact (flow is more sensitive to raw velocity/pressure), while a higher value means viscosity has a greater dampening effect.
Flow Smoothing - Default: 5; Range: 1 - 20; Description: Controls the length of the EMA smoothing applied to the main flow line. Higher values result in a smoother flow line but with more lag; lower values make it more responsive but potentially noisier.
Dashboard Position - Default: ‘Top Right’; Range: ‘Top Right’, ‘Top Left’, ‘Bottom Right’, ‘Bottom Left’, ‘Middle Right’, ‘Middle Left’; Description: Determines the placement of the dashboard on the chart.
Header Size - Default: ‘Normal’; Range: ‘Tiny’, ‘Small’, ‘Normal’, ‘Large’, ‘Huge’; Description: Sets the text size for the dashboard header.
Values Size - Default: ‘Small’; Range: ‘Tiny’, ‘Small’, ‘Normal’, ‘Large’; Description: Sets the text size for the metric values in the dashboard.
✅ Best Use Cases
Trend Identification: Identifying the dominant market flow (bullish or bearish) and its strength to trade in the direction of the prevailing trend.
Momentum Confirmation: Using the flow strength and acceleration to confirm the conviction behind price movements.
Volatility Assessment: Utilizing the turbulence metric to gauge market stability, helping to adjust position sizing or avoid choppy conditions.
Reversal Spotting: Watching for divergences between price and flow, or crossovers of the main flow line above/below the zero line, as potential reversal signals, especially when combined with changes in pressure or viscosity.
Swing Trading: Leveraging the smoothed flow line to capture medium-term market swings, entering when flow aligns with the desired trade direction and exiting when flow weakens or reverses.
Intraday Scalping: Using shorter lookback periods and higher sensitivity to identify quick shifts in flow and turbulence for short-term trading opportunities, particularly in liquid markets.
⚠️ Limitations
Lagging Nature: Like many indicators based on moving averages and lookback periods, the main flow line can lag behind rapid price changes, potentially leading to delayed signals.
Whipsaws in Ranging Markets: During periods of low volatility or sideways price action (high viscosity, low flow strength), the indicator might produce frequent buy/sell signals (whipsaws) as the flow oscillates around the zero line.
Not a Standalone System: While comprehensive, it should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis (e.g., price action, support/resistance levels, other indicators) and not as a sole basis for trading decisions.
Subjectivity in Interpretation: While the dashboard provides quantitative values, the interpretation of “strong” flow, “high” turbulence, or “significant” acceleration can still have a subjective element depending on the trader’s strategy and risk tolerance.
💡 What Makes This Unique
Fluid Dynamics Analogy: Its core strength lies in translating complex market interactions into an intuitive fluid dynamics framework, making concepts like momentum, resistance, and pressure easier to visualize and understand.
Market View: Instead of focusing on a single aspect (like just momentum or just volatility), it integrates multiple factors (velocity, viscosity, pressure, turbulence) to provide a more comprehensive picture of market conditions.
Adaptive Visualization: The dynamic coloring of the flow line and the turbulence background provide immediate, adaptive visual feedback that changes with market conditions.
🔬 How It Works
Price Velocity Calculation: The indicator first calculates price velocity by measuring the rate of change of the closing price over a given ‘lookback’ period. The raw velocity is then normalized by the Average True Range (ATR) of the same lookback period. Normalization enables comparison of momentum between assets or timeframes by scaling for volatility. This is the direction and speed of initial price movement.
Viscosity Calculation: Market ‘viscosity’ or resistance to price movement is determined by looking at the current ATR relative to its longer-term average (SMA of ATR over lookback * 2). The further the current ATR is above its average, the lower the viscosity (less resistance to price movement), and vice-versa. The script inverts this relationship and bounds it so that rising viscosity means more resistance.
Pressure Force Measurement: A ‘pressure’ variable is calculated as a function of the ratio of current volume to its simple moving average, multiplied by the price range (close - open) and normalized by ATR. This is designed to measure the force behind price movement created by volume and intraday price thrusts. This pressure is smoothed by an EMA.
Turbulence State Evaluation: A equivalent ‘Reynolds number’ is calculated by dividing the absolute normalized velocity by the viscosity. This is the proclivity of the market to move in a chaotic or orderly fashion. This ‘reynoldsValue’ is smoothed with an EMA to get the ‘turbulenceState’, which indicates if the market is laminar (stable), transitional, or turbulent.
Main Flow Derivation: The ‘rawFlow’ is calculated by taking the normalized velocity, dampening its impact based on the ‘viscosity’ and user-input ‘sensitivity’, and orienting it by the sign of the smoothed ‘pressureSmooth’. The ‘rawFlow’ is then put through multiple layers of exponential moving average (EMA) smoothing (with ‘smoothingLength’ and derived values) to reach the final ‘mainFlow’ line. The extensive smoothing is designed to give a smooth and clear visualization of the overall market direction and magnitude.
Dashboard Metrics Compilation: Additional metrics like flow acceleration (derivative of mainFlow), and flow continuity (correlation between close and volume) are calculated. All primary components (Flow State, Strength, Viscosity, Turbulence, Pressure, Acceleration, Continuity) are then presented in a user-configurable dashboard for ease of monitoring.
💡 Note:
The “Market Fluid Dynamics - Phen” indicator is designed to offer a unique perspective on market behavior by applying principles from fluid dynamics. It’s most effective when used to understand the underlying forces driving price rather than as a direct buy/sell signal generator in isolation. Experiment with the settings, particularly the ‘Base Lookback Period’, ‘Flow Sensitivity’, and ‘Flow Smoothing’, to find what best suits your trading style and the specific asset you are analyzing. Always combine its insights with robust risk management practices.

Combining with Other Tools:
Integrate this indicator with other technical analysis tools for confirmation.
Use additional filters like volume, RSI, or MACD to enhance decision-making accuracy.
LIMITATIONS
Market Conditions: The effectiveness of the indicator may vary in highly volatile or sideways markets. Be cautious during periods of low liquidity or sudden price spikes 🌪️.
Parameter Sensitivity: Different moving average types and lengths can produce varying results. Experiment with settings to find what works best for your asset class and timeframe.
False Signals: Like any technical indicator, false signals can occur. Always confirm signals with other forms of analysis before executing trades.
NOTES
Historical Data: Ensure you have enough historical data loaded into your chart for accurate moving average calculations.
Backtesting: Thoroughly backtest the indicator on various assets and timeframes using demo accounts before deploying it in live trading environments 🔍.
Customization: Feel free to adjust colors, line widths, and label styles to better fit your chart aesthetics and personal preferences.
EXAMPLE STRATEGIES
Trend Following: Use the indicator to ride trends by entering positions when the fast MA crosses above/below the slow MA and exiting when the opposite occurs.
Mean Reversion: Identify overbought/oversold conditions by combining the indicator with oscillators like RSI or Stochastic. Enter counter-trend positions when the moving averages diverge significantly from the mean.
Scalping: Apply tight moving average settings to capture small, quick profits in intraday trading. Combine with volume indicators to filter out weak signals.
Triple EMA + Volume/Price SignalsOverview
This script merges three exponential moving averages (EMA) with adaptive volume thresholds to identify high-confidence trends. Unlike basic volume indicators, it triggers signals only when volume exceeds both a user-defined absolute value (e.g., 500k) and a percentage increase (e.g., 5%) – reducing noise in volatile markets.
Key Features
Triple EMA System:
Short (9), Medium (21), and Long (50) EMAs for trend direction.
Bullish Signal: Short EMA > Medium EMA > Long EMA.
Bearish Signal: Short EMA < Medium EMA < Long EMA.
Dual-Threshold Volume Confirmation:
Absolute Volume: Highlight bars where volume exceeds X (e.g., 500,000).
Percentage Increase: Highlight bars where volume rises by Y% (e.g., 5%) vs. prior bar.
Users can enable/disable either threshold.
Customizable Alerts:
Trigger alerts only when both EMA alignment and volume conditions are met.
How It Works
Trend + Volume Synergy:
A bullish EMA crossover alone might be a false breakout. This script requires additional volume confirmation (e.g., 500k volume + 5% spike) to validate the move.
Flexibility: Adjust thresholds for different assets:
Stocks: Higher absolute volume (e.g., 1M shares).
Crypto: Smaller absolute volume but larger % spikes (e.g., 10%).
Usage Examples
Swing Trading:
Set EMA lengths to 20/50/200 and volume thresholds to 500k + 5% on daily charts.
Scalping:
Use 5/13/21 EMAs with 100k volume + 3% spikes on 5-minute charts.
MLB Momentum IndicatorMLB Momentum Indicator is a no‐lookahead technical indicator designed to signal intraday trend shifts and potential reversal points. It combines several well‐known technical components—Moving Averages, MACD, RSI, and optional ADX & Volume filters—to deliver high‐probability buy/sell signals on your chart.
Below is an overview of how it works and what each part does:
1. Moving Average Trend Filter
The script uses two moving averages (fast and slow) to determine the primary trend:
isUpTrend if Fast MA > Slow MA
isDownTrend if Fast MA < Slow MA
You can select the MA method—SMA, EMA, or WMA—and customize lengths.
Why it matters: The indicator only gives bullish signals if the trend is up, and bearish signals if the trend is down, helping avoid trades that go against the bigger flow.
2. MACD Confirmation (Momentum)
Uses MACD (with user‐defined Fast, Slow, and Signal lengths) to check momentum:
macdBuySignal if the MACD line crosses above its signal line (bullish)
macdSellSignal if the MACD line crosses below its signal line (bearish)
Why it matters: MACD crossovers confirm an emerging momentum shift, aligning signals with actual price acceleration rather than random fluctuation.
3. RSI Overbought/Oversold Filter
RSI (Relative Strength Index) is calculated with a chosen length, plus Overbought & Oversold thresholds:
For long signals: the RSI must be below the Overbought threshold (e.g. 70).
For short signals: the RSI must be above the Oversold threshold (e.g. 30).
Why it matters: Prevents buying when price is already overbought or shorting when price is too oversold, filtering out possible poor‐risk trades.
4. Optional ADX Filter (Trend Strength)
If enabled, ADX must exceed a chosen threshold (e.g., 20) for a signal to be valid:
This ensures you’re only taking trades in markets that have sufficient directional momentum.
Why it matters: It weeds out choppy, sideways conditions where signals are unreliable.
5. Optional Volume Filter (High‐Participation Moves)
If enabled, the indicator checks whether current volume is above a certain multiple of its moving average (e.g., 1.5× average volume).
Why it matters: High volume often indicates stronger institutional interest, validating potential breakouts or reversals.
6. ATR & Chandelier (Visual Reference)
For reference only, the script can display ATR‐based stop levels or a Chandelier Exit line:
ATR (Average True Range) helps gauge volatility and can inform stop‐loss distances.
Chandelier Exit is a trailing stop technique that adjusts automatically as price moves.
Why it matters: Though this version of the script doesn’t execute trades, these lines help you see how far to place stops or how to ride a trend.
7. Final Bullish / Bearish Signal
When all conditions (trend, MACD, RSI, optional ADX, optional Volume) line up for a long, a green “Long” arrow appears.
When all conditions line up for a short, a red “Short” arrow appears.
Why it matters: You get a clear, on‐chart signal for each potential entry, rather than needing to check multiple indicators manually.
8. Session & Date Filtering
The script allows choosing a start/end date and an optional session window (e.g. 09:30–16:00).
Why it matters: Helps limit signals to a specific historical backtest range or trading hours, which can be crucial for day traders (e.g., stock market hours only).
Putting It All Together
Primary Trend → ensures you trade in line with the bigger direction.
MACD & RSI → confirm momentum and avoid overbought/oversold extremes.
ADX & Volume → optional filters for strong trend strength & genuine interest.
Arrows → each potential buy (Long) or sell (Short) signal is clearly shown on your chart.
Use Cases
5‐Minute Scalping: Shorter RSI/MACD lengths to catch small, frequent intraday moves.
Swing Trading: Larger MAs, bigger RSI thresholds, and using ADX to filter only major trends.
Cautious Approach: Enable volume & ADX filters to reduce false signals in choppy markets.
Benefits & Limitations
Benefits:
Consolidates multiple indicators into one overlay.
Clear buy/sell signals with optional dynamic volatility references.
Flexible user inputs adapt to different trading styles/timeframes.
Limitations:
Like all technical indicators, it can produce false signals in sideways or news‐driven markets.
Success depends heavily on user settings and the particular market’s behavior.
Summary
The MLB Momentum Indicator combines a trend filter (MAs), momentum check (MACD), overbought/oversold gating (RSI), and optional ADX/Volume filters to create clear buy/sell arrows on your chart. This approach encourages trading in sync with both trend and momentum, and helps avoid suboptimal entries when volume or trend strength is lacking. It can be tailored to scalp micro‐moves on lower timeframes or used for higher‐timeframe swing trading by adjusting the input settings.
