Candlestick Bias OscillatorCandlestick Bias Oscillator (CBO)
The Candlestick Bias Oscillator (CBO) with Signal Line is a pioneering indicator developed for the TradingView platform, designed to offer traders a nuanced analysis of market sentiment through the unique lens of candlestick patterns. This indicator stands out by merging traditional concepts of price action analysis with innovative mathematical computations, providing a fresh perspective on trend detection and potential market reversals.
Originality and Utility
At the core of the CBO's originality is its method of calculating the bias of candlesticks. Unlike conventional oscillators that may rely solely on closing prices or high-low ranges, the CBO incorporates both the body and wick of candlesticks into its analysis. This dual consideration allows for a more rounded understanding of market sentiment, capturing both the directional momentum and the strength of price rejections within a single oscillator.
Mathematical Foundations
1. Body Bias: The CBO calculates the body bias by assessing the relative position of the close to the open within the day's range, scaled to a -100 to 100 range. This calculation reflects the bullish or bearish sentiment of the market, based on the day's closing momentum.
Body Bias = (Close−Open)/(High−Low) x 100
Wick Bias: Similarly, the wick bias calculation takes into account the lengths of the upper and lower wicks, indicating rejection levels beyond the body's close. The balance between these wicks is scaled similarly to the body bias, offering insight into the market's indecision or rejection of certain price levels.
Wick Bias=(Lower Wick−Upper Wick)/(Total Wick Length) × 100
3. Overall Bias and Oscillator: By averaging the body and wick biases, the CBO yields an overall bias score, which is then smoothed over a user-defined period to create the oscillator. This oscillator provides a clear visual representation of the market's underlying sentiment, smoothed to filter out the noise.
4. Signal Line: A secondary smoothing of the oscillator creates the signal line, offering a trigger for potential trading signals when the oscillator crosses this line, indicative of a change in market momentum.
How to Use the CBO:
The CBO is versatile, suitable for various trading strategies, including scalping, swing trading, and long-term trend following. Traders can use the oscillator and signal line crossovers as indications for entry or exit points. The relative position of the oscillator to the zero line further provides insight into the prevailing market bias, enabling traders to align their strategies with the broader market sentiment.
Why It Adds Value:
The CBO's innovative approach to analyzing candlestick patterns fills a gap in the existing array of TradingView indicators. By providing a detailed analysis of both candle bodies and wicks, the CBO offers a more comprehensive view of market sentiment than traditional oscillators. This can be particularly useful for traders looking to gauge the strength of price movements and potential reversal points with greater precision.
Conclusion:
The Candle Bias Oscillator with Signal Line is not just another addition to the plethora of indicators on TradingView. It represents a significant advancement in the analysis of market sentiment, combining traditional concepts with a novel mathematical approach. By offering a deeper insight into the dynamics of candlestick patterns, the CBO equips traders with a powerful tool to navigate the complexities of the market with increased confidence.
Explore the unique insights provided by the CBO and integrate it into your trading strategy for a more informed and nuanced market analysis.

Bollinger Bands & Fibonacci StrategyThe Bollinger Bands & Fibonacci Strategy is a powerful technical analysis trading strategy designed to identify potential entry and exit points in financial markets. This strategy combines two widely used indicators, Bollinger Bands and Fibonacci retracement levels, to assist traders in making informed trading decisions.
Key Features:
Bollinger Bands: This strategy utilizes Bollinger Bands, a volatility-based indicator that consists of an upper band, a lower band, and a middle (basis) line. Bollinger Bands help traders visualize price volatility and potential reversal points.
Fibonacci Retracement Levels: Fibonacci retracement levels are essential tools for identifying potential support and resistance levels in price charts. This strategy incorporates Fibonacci retracement levels, including the 0% and 100% levels, to aid in pinpointing key price levels.
Long and Short Signals: The strategy generates long (buy) and short (sell) signals based on specific conditions derived from Bollinger Bands and Fibonacci levels. Long signals are generated when price crosses above the upper Bollinger Band and when the price is above the Fibonacci low level. Short signals are generated when price crosses below the lower Bollinger Band and when the price is below the Fibonacci high level.
Position Management: To prevent multiple concurrent positions of the same type (long or short), the strategy employs position management logic. It tracks open positions and ensures that only one position type is active at a time.
Exit Conditions: The strategy includes customizable exit conditions to manage and close open positions. Traders can fine-tune exit criteria to align with their risk management and profit-taking strategies.
User-Friendly: This strategy script is user-friendly and can be easily integrated into the TradingView platform, allowing traders to apply it to various financial instruments and timeframes.
Usage:
Traders and investors can apply the Bollinger Bands & Fibonacci Strategy to a wide range of financial markets, including stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. It can be adapted to different timeframes to suit various trading styles, from day trading to swing trading.
Disclaimer:
Trading carries inherent risks, and this strategy is no exception. It is essential to use proper risk management techniques, including stop-loss orders, and thoroughly backtest the strategy on historical data before implementing it in live trading.
The Bollinger Bands & Fibonacci Strategy is a valuable tool for technical traders seeking well-defined entry and exit points based on robust indicators. It can serve as a foundation for traders to build and customize their trading strategies according to their individual preferences and risk tolerance.

W and M Pattern Indicator- SwaGThis is a TradingView indicator script that identifies potential buy and sell signals based on ‘W’ and ‘M’ patterns in the Relative Strength Index (RSI). It provides visual alerts and draws horizontal lines to indicate potential trade entry points.
User Manual:
Inputs: The script takes two inputs - an upper limit and a lower limit. The default values are 70 and 40, respectively.
RSI Calculation: The script calculates the RSI based on the closing prices of the last 14 periods.
Pattern Identification: It identifies ‘W’ patterns when the RSI makes a higher low within the lower limit, and ‘M’ patterns when the RSI makes a lower high within the upper limit.
Visual Alerts: The script plots these patterns on the chart. ‘W’ patterns are marked with small green triangles below the bars, and ‘M’ patterns are marked with small red triangles above the bars.
Trade Entry Points: A horizontal line is drawn at the high or low of the candle to represent potential trade entry points. The line starts from one bar to the left and extends 10 bars to the right.
Trading Strategy:
For investing, use a weekly timeframe.
For swing trading, use a daily timeframe.
For intraday trading, use a 5 or 15-minute timeframe. Only consider sell-side signals for intraday trading.
Take a buy position if the high breaks above the green line or sell if the low breaks below the red line.
Use recent signals only and avoid signals that are too old.
Swing highs or lows will be your stop-loss level.
Always think about your stop-loss before entering a trade, not your target.
Avoid trades with a large stop-loss.
Remember, this script is a tool to aid in your trading decisions. Always test your strategies thoroughly before live trading. Happy trading! 😊
Moving Average Filters Add-on w/ Expanded Source Types [Loxx]Moving Average Filters Add-on w/ Expanded Source Types is a conglomeration of specialized and traditional moving averages that will be used in most of indicators that I publish moving forward. There are 39 moving averages included in this indicator as well as expanded source types including traditional Heiken Ashi and Better Heiken Ashi candles. You can read about the expanded source types clicking here . About half of these moving averages are closed source on other trading platforms. This indicator serves as a reference point for future public/private, open/closed source indicators that I publish to TradingView. Information about these moving averages was gleaned from various forex and trading forums and platforms as well as TASC publications and other assorted research publications.
________________________________________________________________
Included moving averages
ADXvma - Average Directional Volatility Moving Average
Linnsoft's ADXvma formula is a volatility-based moving average, with the volatility being determined by the value of the ADX indicator.
The ADXvma has the SMA in Chande's CMO replaced with an EMA, it then uses a few more layers of EMA smoothing before the "Volatility Index" is calculated.
A side effect is, those additional layers slow down the ADXvma when you compare it to Chande's Variable Index Dynamic Average VIDYA.
The ADXVMA provides support during uptrends and resistance during downtrends and will stay flat for longer, but will create some of the most accurate market signals when it decides to move.
Ahrens Moving Average
Richard D. Ahrens's Moving Average promises "Smoother Data" that isn't influenced by the occasional price spike. It works by using the Open and the Close in his formula so that the only time the Ahrens Moving Average will change is when the candlestick is either making new highs or new lows.
Alexander Moving Average - ALXMA
This Moving Average uses an elaborate smoothing formula and utilizes a 7 period Moving Average. It corresponds to fitting a second-order polynomial to seven consecutive observations. This moving average is rarely used in trading but is interesting as this Moving Average has been applied to diffusion indexes that tend to be very volatile.
Double Exponential Moving Average - DEMA
The Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) combines a smoothed EMA and a single EMA to provide a low-lag indicator. It's primary purpose is to reduce the amount of "lagging entry" opportunities, and like all Moving Averages, the DEMA confirms uptrends whenever price crosses on top of it and closes above it, and confirms downtrends when the price crosses under it and closes below it - but with significantly less lag.
Double Smoothed Exponential Moving Average - DSEMA
The Double Smoothed Exponential Moving Average is a lot less laggy compared to a traditional EMA. It's also considered a leading indicator compared to the EMA, and is best utilized whenever smoothness and speed of reaction to market changes are required.
Exponential Moving Average - EMA
The EMA places more significance on recent data points and moves closer to price than the SMA (Simple Moving Average). It reacts faster to volatility due to its emphasis on recent data and is known for its ability to give greater weight to recent and more relevant data. The EMA is therefore seen as an enhancement over the SMA.
Fast Exponential Moving Average - FEMA
An Exponential Moving Average with a short look-back period.
Fractal Adaptive Moving Average - FRAMA
The Fractal Adaptive Moving Average by John Ehlers is an intelligent adaptive Moving Average which takes the importance of price changes into account and follows price closely enough to display significant moves whilst remaining flat if price ranges. The FRAMA does this by dynamically adjusting the look-back period based on the market's fractal geometry.
Hull Moving Average - HMA
Alan Hull's HMA makes use of weighted moving averages to prioritize recent values and greatly reduce lag whilst maintaining the smoothness of a traditional Moving Average. For this reason, it's seen as a well-suited Moving Average for identifying entry points.
IE/2 - Early T3 by Tim Tilson
The IE/2 is a Moving Average that uses Linear Regression slope in its calculation to help with smoothing. It's a worthy Moving Average on it's own, even though it is the precursor and very early version of the famous "T3 Indicator".
Integral of Linear Regression Slope - ILRS
A Moving Average where the slope of a linear regression line is simply integrated as it is fitted in a moving window of length N (natural numbers in maths) across the data. The derivative of ILRS is the linear regression slope. ILRS is not the same as a SMA (Simple Moving Average) of length N, which is actually the midpoint of the linear regression line as it moves across the data.
Instantaneous Trendline
The Instantaneous Trendline is created by removing the dominant cycle component from the price information which makes this Moving Average suitable for medium to long-term trading.
Laguerre Filter
The Laguerre Filter is a smoothing filter which is based on Laguerre polynomials. The filter requires the current price, three prior prices, a user defined factor called Alpha to fill its calculation.
Adjusting the Alpha coefficient is used to increase or decrease its lag and it's smoothness.
Leader Exponential Moving Average
The Leader EMA was created by Giorgos E. Siligardos who created a Moving Average which was able to eliminate lag altogether whilst maintaining some smoothness. It was first described during his research paper "MACD Leader" where he applied this to the MACD to improve its signals and remove its lagging issue. This filter uses his leading MACD's "modified EMA" and can be used as a zero lag filter.
Linear Regression Value - LSMA (Least Squares Moving Average)
LSMA as a Moving Average is based on plotting the end point of the linear regression line. It compares the current value to the prior value and a determination is made of a possible trend, eg. the linear regression line is pointing up or down.
Linear Weighted Moving Average - LWMA
LWMA reacts to price quicker than the SMA and EMA. Although it's similar to the Simple Moving Average, the difference is that a weight coefficient is multiplied to the price which means the most recent price has the highest weighting, and each prior price has progressively less weight. The weights drop in a linear fashion.
McGinley Dynamic
John McGinley created this Moving Average to track price better than traditional Moving Averages. It does this by incorporating an automatic adjustment factor into its formula, which speeds (or slows) the indicator in trending, or ranging, markets.
McNicholl EMA
Dennis McNicholl developed this Moving Average to use as his center line for his "Better Bollinger Bands" indicator and was successful because it responded better to volatility changes over the standard SMA and managed to avoid common whipsaws.
Non lag moving average
The Non Lag Moving average follows price closely and gives very quick signals as well as early signals of price change. As a standalone Moving Average, it should not be used on its own, but as an additional confluence tool for early signals.
Parabolic Weighted Moving Average
The Parabolic Weighted Moving Average is a variation of the Linear Weighted Moving Average. The Linear Weighted Moving Average calculates the average by assigning different weight to each element in its calculation. The Parabolic Weighted Moving Average is a variation that allows weights to be changed to form a parabolic curve. It is done simply by using the Power parameter of this indicator.
Recursive Moving Trendline
Dennis Meyers's Recursive Moving Trendline uses a recursive (repeated application of a rule) polynomial fit, a technique that uses a small number of past values estimations of price and today's price to predict tomorrows price.
Simple Moving Average - SMA
The SMA calculates the average of a range of prices by adding recent prices and then dividing that figure by the number of time periods in the calculation average. It is the most basic Moving Average which is seen as a reliable tool for starting off with Moving Average studies. As reliable as it may be, the basic moving average will work better when it's enhanced into an EMA.
Sine Weighted Moving Average
The Sine Weighted Moving Average assigns the most weight at the middle of the data set. It does this by weighting from the first half of a Sine Wave Cycle and the most weighting is given to the data in the middle of that data set. The Sine WMA closely resembles the TMA (Triangular Moving Average).
Smoothed Moving Average - SMMA
The Smoothed Moving Average is similar to the Simple Moving Average (SMA), but aims to reduce noise rather than reduce lag. SMMA takes all prices into account and uses a long lookback period. Due to this, it's seen a an accurate yet laggy Moving Average.
Smoother
The Smoother filter is a faster-reacting smoothing technique which generates considerably less lag than the SMMA (Smoothed Moving Average). It gives earlier signals but can also create false signals due to its earlier reactions. This filter is sometimes wrongly mistaken for the superior Jurik Smoothing algorithm.
Super Smoother
The Super Smoother filter uses John Ehlers’s “Super Smoother” which consists of a a Two pole Butterworth filter combined with a 2-bar SMA (Simple Moving Average) that suppresses the 22050 Hz Nyquist frequency: A characteristic of a sampler, which converts a continuous function or signal into a discrete sequence.
Three pole Ehlers Butterworth
The 3 pole Ehlers Butterworth (as well as the Two pole Butterworth) are both superior alternatives to the EMA and SMA. They aim at producing less lag whilst maintaining accuracy. The 2 pole filter will give you a better approximation for price, whereas the 3 pole filter has superior smoothing.
Three pole Ehlers smoother
The 3 pole Ehlers smoother works almost as close to price as the above mentioned 3 Pole Ehlers Butterworth. It acts as a strong baseline for signals but removes some noise. Side by side, it hardly differs from the Three Pole Ehlers Butterworth but when examined closely, it has better overshoot reduction compared to the 3 pole Ehlers Butterworth.
Triangular Moving Average - TMA
The TMA is similar to the EMA but uses a different weighting scheme. Exponential and weighted Moving Averages will assign weight to the most recent price data. Simple moving averages will assign the weight equally across all the price data. With a TMA (Triangular Moving Average), it is double smoother (averaged twice) so the majority of the weight is assigned to the middle portion of the data.
The TMA and Sine Weighted Moving Average Filter are almost identical at times.
Triple Exponential Moving Average - TEMA
The TEMA uses multiple EMA calculations as well as subtracting lag to create a tool which can be used for scalping pullbacks. As it follows price closely, it's signals are considered very noisy and should only be used in extremely fast-paced trading conditions.
Two pole Ehlers Butterworth
The 2 pole Ehlers Butterworth (as well as the three pole Butterworth mentioned above) is another filter that cuts out the noise and follows the price closely. The 2 pole is seen as a faster, leading filter over the 3 pole and follows price a bit more closely. Analysts will utilize both a 2 pole and a 3 pole Butterworth on the same chart using the same period, but having both on chart allows its crosses to be traded.
Two pole Ehlers smoother
A smoother version of the Two pole Ehlers Butterworth. This filter is the faster version out of the 3 pole Ehlers Butterworth. It does a decent job at cutting out market noise whilst emphasizing a closer following to price over the 3 pole Ehlers.
Volume Weighted EMA - VEMA
Utilizing tick volume in MT4 (or real volume in MT5), this EMA will use the Volume reading in its decision to plot its moves. The more Volume it detects on a move, the more authority (confirmation) it has. And this EMA uses those Volume readings to plot its movements.
Studies show that tick volume and real volume have a very strong correlation, so using this filter in MT4 or MT5 produces very similar results and readings.
Zero Lag DEMA - Zero Lag Double Exponential Moving Average
John Ehlers's Zero Lag DEMA's aim is to eliminate the inherent lag associated with all trend following indicators which average a price over time. Because this is a Double Exponential Moving Average with Zero Lag, it has a tendency to overshoot and create a lot of false signals for swing trading. It can however be used for quick scalping or as a secondary indicator for confluence.
Zero Lag Moving Average
The Zero Lag Moving Average is described by its creator, John Ehlers, as a Moving Average with absolutely no delay. And it's for this reason that this filter will cause a lot of abrupt signals which will not be ideal for medium to long-term traders. This filter is designed to follow price as close as possible whilst de-lagging data instead of basing it on regular data. The way this is done is by attempting to remove the cumulative effect of the Moving Average.
Zero Lag TEMA - Zero Lag Triple Exponential Moving Average
Just like the Zero Lag DEMA, this filter will give you the fastest signals out of all the Zero Lag Moving Averages. This is useful for scalping but dangerous for medium to long-term traders, especially during market Volatility and news events. Having no lag, this filter also has no smoothing in its signals and can cause some very bizarre behavior when applied to certain indicators.

What are Heiken Ashi "better" candles?
The "better formula" was proposed in an article/memo by BNP-Paribas (In Warrants & Zertifikate, No. 8, August 2004 (a monthly German magazine published by BNP Paribas, Frankfurt), there is an article by Sebastian Schmidt about further development (smoothing) of Heikin-Ashi chart.)
They proposed to use the following:
(Open+Close)/2+(((Close-Open)/( High-Low ))*ABS((Close-Open)/2))
instead of using :
haClose = (O+H+L+C)/4
According to that document the HA representation using their proposed formula is better than the traditional formula.
What are traditional Heiken-Ashi candles?
The Heikin-Ashi technique averages price data to create a Japanese candlestick chart that filters out market noise.
Heikin-Ashi charts, developed by Munehisa Homma in the 1700s, share some characteristics with standard candlestick charts but differ based on the values used to create each candle. Instead of using the open, high, low, and close like standard candlestick charts, the Heikin-Ashi technique uses a modified formula based on two-period averages. This gives the chart a smoother appearance, making it easier to spots trends and reversals, but also obscures gaps and some price data.
Expanded generic source types:
Close = close
Open = open
High = high
Low = low
Median = hl2
Typical = hlc3
Weighted = hlcc4
Average = ohlc4
Average Median Body = (open+close)/2

Multi-Oscillator Divergence Detector with Pivot Validation
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
📝 COMPLIANT DESCRIPTION (addresses all moderator requirements):
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
**Multi-Oscillator Divergence Detector with Pivot Validation**
This indicator identifies regular divergences by comparing price pivot points against oscillator pivot points across three momentum indicators simultaneously.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
**HOW THE SCRIPT WORKS (Technical Methodology):**
The script uses a multi-step validation process:
1. **Pivot Detection**: The script identifies swing highs and lows on both price and oscillators using the `ta.pivothigh()` and `ta.pivotlow()` functions with configurable left/right lookback periods.
2. **Divergence Validation**: When a new pivot is detected, the script scans historical pivots to find potential divergence pairs where:
- For Bullish: Price makes a lower low while the oscillator makes a higher low
- For Bearish: Price makes a higher high while the oscillator makes a lower high
3. **Line Integrity Check**: Before confirming a divergence, the script draws a temporary test line between the two pivot points and checks if any intermediate price/oscillator values pierce through this line. Only non-pierced divergences are displayed.
4. **Multi-Oscillator Confirmation**: The divergence is checked against RSI, CCI, and MFI independently. The label shows how many oscillators confirmed the same divergence (1, 2, or 3).
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
**WHY COMBINE THESE THREE OSCILLATORS:**
Each oscillator measures momentum differently, providing complementary confirmation:
- **RSI (Relative Strength Index)**: Measures the speed and magnitude of recent price changes. Calculated as: RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS)), where RS = Average Gain / Average Loss over the period.
- **CCI (Commodity Channel Index)**: Measures price deviation from the statistical mean. Calculated as: CCI = (Typical Price - SMA) / (0.015 × Mean Deviation). Effective for identifying cyclical turning points.
- **MFI (Money Flow Index)**: A volume-weighted RSI that incorporates buying/selling pressure. Calculated using typical price × volume to create money flow, then applying RSI formula. Adds volume confirmation to momentum analysis.
When multiple oscillators show divergence simultaneously, it suggests stronger conviction in the potential reversal signal.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
**WHAT MAKES THIS SCRIPT UNIQUE:**
1. **Pivot-Based Validation**: Unlike simple divergence indicators that compare consecutive values, this script validates divergences between actual swing points, reducing false signals.
2. **Line Piercing Filter**: The script ensures no intermediate price action invalidates the divergence by checking if prices cross the divergence line.
3. **Triple Confirmation System**: Shows signal strength (1-3) based on how many oscillators agree on the divergence.
4. **Visual Confirmation Status**: Dotted lines indicate unconfirmed (recent) divergences; solid lines indicate confirmed divergences after the lookback period passes.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
**HOW TO USE THIS INDICATOR:**
1. **Signal Identification**:
- Green lines with up arrow (▲) = Bullish divergence (potential buy zone)
- Red lines with down arrow (▼) = Bearish divergence (potential sell zone)
2. **Signal Strength**: The number next to the arrow (1, 2, or 3) indicates how many oscillators confirmed the divergence. Higher numbers suggest stronger signals.
3. **Confirmation Status**:
- Dotted line = Divergence is still forming (may be invalidated)
- Solid line = Divergence is confirmed
4. **Best Practices**:
- Use on higher timeframes (4H, Daily) for more reliable signals
- Combine with support/resistance levels for entry timing
- Wait for price action confirmation before entering trades
- Signals with 2-3 oscillator confirmations are generally more reliable
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
**SETTINGS EXPLAINED:**
| Setting | Default | Purpose |
|---------|---------|---------|
| Pivot Lookback Left | 3 | Bars to the left required to confirm a pivot |
| Pivot Lookback Right | 1 | Bars to the right required to confirm a pivot |
| Max Historical Bars | 750 | How far back to search for divergence pairs |
| RSI/CCI/MFI Length | 14 | Period for each oscillator calculation |
| Line Width | 2 | Visual thickness of divergence lines |
| Show Labels | On | Toggle signal labels on/off |
**Adjusting for Trading Style:**
- Shorter pivot lookback = More signals, faster detection, more noise
- Longer pivot lookback = Fewer signals, slower detection, higher quality
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
**LIMITATIONS AND RISK DISCLAIMER:**
- Divergences are NOT direct buy/sell signals - they indicate potential reversals
- In strong trends, divergences may fail multiple times before working
- Past divergence patterns do not guarantee future price movement
- Always use proper position sizing and stop-loss orders
- This indicator should be used as part of a complete trading strategy

Candle Boxes (Border + Midline + Open level)📦 Candle Boxes (Border + Midline + Open Level)
Candle Boxes is a visual multi-timeframe (HTF) tool designed to display higher-timeframe candle structure directly on a lower-timeframe chart.
It helps traders understand HTF context without constantly switching between timeframes.
🔍 What this indicator displays
For each HTF candle, the indicator draws:
HTF Box
Top = HTF High
Bottom = HTF Low
Horizontal span = full HTF candle duration
Border color
Bullish HTF candle → bullish color
Bearish HTF candle → bearish color
Midline (50%) – optional
Exact midpoint of the HTF range: (High + Low) / 2
HTF Open level – optional
Horizontal line at the HTF candle open price
All elements are drawn without background fill to keep the chart clean and readable.
⏱ Multi-Timeframe logic
HTF is selected using the HTF (box timeframe) input
Data is retrieved via request.security() with no repainting
Levels update only while the HTF candle is forming
Once the HTF candle closes, its box and lines remain fixed
🧠 Intended use
This indicator is designed for:
visualizing higher-timeframe context on lower charts
analyzing HTF structure without changing timeframe
supporting:
support & resistance analysis
price action studies
intraday and swing trading context
This tool does not generate buy/sell signals and is not a trading strategy.
⚙️ Settings
HTF & history

⚠️ Important notes
TradingView enforces strict limits on drawn objects (boxes and lines)
This indicator is optimized to:
display as much historical data as technically possible
automatically manage and delete older objects
Higher HTF → fewer boxes visible in history
Lower HTF → more boxes, faster object-limit usage
🔁 Suggested Timeframe Combinations
This indicator is designed to work best when the selected HTF is significantly higher than the chart timeframe.
Below are practical, commonly used combinations:
Intraday trading
Chart: 5m → HTF: 1H
Chart: 15m → HTF: 4H
Useful for identifying higher-timeframe structure during active trading sessions.
Swing trading
Chart: 30m → HTF: 4H
Chart: 1H → HTF: Daily
Helps visualize major HTF ranges and key levels while managing trades over multiple days.
Higher-timeframe analysis
Chart: 1H → HTF: Weekly
Chart: 4H → HTF: Weekly
Best suited for understanding broader market context, range behavior, and HTF price positioning.
General guideline
A 4× to 8× ratio between chart timeframe and HTF is usually a good starting point
Larger ratios provide cleaner structure but fewer visible boxes
Smaller ratios provide more detail but consume object limits faster
These combinations are guidelines only and can be adjusted based on personal trading style and market conditions.

V-Max Strategic Horizon: Cross-TF Coordinate Sync (Public EditioOverview
The V-Max Strategic Horizon is a technical visualization utility designed to solve the problem of coordinate drift during multi-timeframe analysis. It serves as a "Physical Coordinate Anchor," ensuring that high-level resistance and support boundaries from macro timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, or 1D) remain strictly locked and visible even when the trader scales down to 1M or 3M execution charts.
Core Technical Logic
Timeframe Anchoring Engine: The script utilizes request.security with a fixed lookback_cnt to pull the absolute highest and lowest price points from a specified anchor timeframe.
Absolute Coordinate Locking (Zero-Drift): Unlike manual horizontal lines that may become misaligned, this tool employs the line.new system with extend.both logic. This ensures the horizons are mathematically tied to the price scale, providing a consistent strategic reference across all chart resolutions.
High-Speed Computational Logic: To prevent the "Script Timeout" errors common in multi-timeframe indicators, the v11.0 engine eliminates iterative loops, favoring vectorized calculations for real-time responsiveness.
Dynamic Metadata Labeling: The script features an automated labeling system that dynamically identifies the source of the data (e.g., "1H Anchor") and displays the precise price coordinate, reducing cognitive load during high-frequency trading.
How to Use
Set Your Anchor: Choose your strategic timeframe (e.g., 1H for day trading, 1D for swing trading) in the settings.
Define the Scan Range: Adjust the lookback count to determine the "strength" of the historical horizon.
Execute with Context: Watch how the price interacts with the "Red" (Resistance) and "Green" (Support) horizons on your 3M chart to identify macro-rejections or breakouts.

ADR Dashboard with Move, Left and AlertsIndicator Name: ADR Dashboard with Move, Left and Alerts
Overview
The ADR Dashboard is a powerful real-time trading tool that tracks how much a stock, crypto, or other asset has moved today relative to its Average Daily Range (ADR). It provides a clear visual representation of:
1. Today’s price movement (Move)
2. Remaining potential movement left to reach ADR (Left)
3. Percentage of ADR covered (% Covered)
4.Additionally, it provides automated alerts for key movement thresholds.
A) What it Does
1.Calculates the Average Daily Range (ADR):
2. Uses True Range over a user-defined lookback period (default 14 days).
3. ADR measures typical daily volatility.
B) Tracks Today’s Move:
1. Move = Current Price – Today’s Open (Realtime)
2. Positive → bullish move, Negative → bearish move
C) Tracks Remaining Potential (Left):
1. Left = ADR – |Move| (Realtime)
2. Shows how much of the ADR is still available for today’s move
3. Percentage Covered:
4. % Covered = |Move| / ADR × 100
D) Color-coded for visual clarity:
1. Green (<50%) → small move, plenty of range left
2. Yellow (50–80%) → moderate move, watch for acceleration
3. Orange (80–100%) → strong move, ADR almost reached
4. Red (>100%) → ADR exceeded, momentum may be exhausted
E) Dashboard Table:
1. Columns: ADR | Move | Left | % Covered
2. Position: middle-right of the chart
F) Left column color-coded:
1. Green → some ADR left
2. Red → ADR fully reached or exceeded
3. Move column: usually yellow for visibility, but could be enhanced for positive/negative moves
G) Alerts
The indicator provides directional alerts:
Bullish Alerts (upward moves):
1. 90% ADR warning: fires when Move ≥ 90% of ADR → early warning of strong bullish momentum
2. 100% ADR breach: fires when Move ≥ ADR → full daily range reached
Bearish Alerts (downward moves):
1. 90% ADR warning: fires when Move ≤ -90% of ADR → early warning of strong bearish momentum
2. 100% ADR breach: fires when Move ≤ -ADR → full daily range reached
All alerts are unique and fire once per session per threshold.
H) How Traders Can Use This Indicator
Momentum Trading:
1. Identify strong intraday moves approaching ADR.
2. Enter positions early at 90% ADR warning or take profits near 100% ADR.
Scalping & Intraday Trading:
1. Gauge how much of today’s range is left for quick entries/exits.
2. Avoid trades when ADR is almost fully consumed → reduces risk of reversals.
Swing Trading:
1. Combine with trend indicators to see if today’s move is significant relative to historical volatility.
I) Risk Management:
1. Set profit targets or stop-loss levels based on Move and Left values.
Visual Efficiency:
At-a-glance view of Move, Left, % Covered, and alert status without manual calculations.
Key Features
1. Real-time Move and Left updates
2. Color-coded % Covered and Left for quick visualization
3. Alerts for 90% and 100% ADR levels, bullish and bearish
4. Clean dashboard table at middle-right of the chart
5. Works across stocks, crypto, forex, and other markets
J) Why This Indicator is Powerful
1. Combines volatility (ADR) with real-time price tracking
2. Provides visual clarity and actionable alerts
3. Helps traders stay ahead of intraday moves, manage risk, and time entries/exits effectively

## 💡 How to Trade
### Setup 1: Divergence at Zone ⭐ (BEST - 75%+ win rate)
**Entry:**
- Price hits demand/supply zone
- Divergence appears (early or confirmed)
- Double confluence = high probability
**Example (Long):**
```
1. Price drops into green demand zone
2. ⚠️ Early bullish divergence fires
3. Enter long with tight stop below zone
4. Target: POC or next supply zone
```
**Risk/Reward:** 1:3 to 1:5
---
### Setup 2: POC Bounce/Rejection
**Entry:**
- Price approaches POC line
- Wait for reaction (bounce or rejection)
- Enter in direction of reaction
**Long Setup:**
```
1. Price pulls back to POC from above
2. POC acts as support
3. Bullish divergence appears (confirmation)
4. Enter long, stop below POC
```
**Short Setup:**
```
1. Price rallies to POC from below
2. POC acts as resistance
3. Bearish divergence appears
4. Enter short, stop above POC
```
**Risk/Reward:** 1:2 to 1:4
---
### Setup 3: Zone + Profile Confluence
**Entry:**
- Supply/demand zone aligns with thick profile bar
- Shows high CVD activity at that level
- Triple confluence = very high probability
**Example:**
```
1. Supply zone at 26,100
2. Profile shows heavy selling at 26,100
3. Price rallies to 26,100
4. Bearish divergence appears
5. Enter short
```
**Risk/Reward:** 1:4 to 1:6
---
### Setup 4: Early Warning Scalp ⚡
**Entry (Aggressive):**
- ⚠️ Early warning fires
- Price at zone or POC
- Enter immediately
- Tight stop (1-2 ATR)
**Management:**
```
- Take 50% profit at 1:1
- Move stop to breakeven
- 🔻 Confirmed signal → Trail stop
- Exit rest at target
```
**Risk/Reward:** 1:1.5 to 1:2
**Trades/day:** 3-8
---
### Setup 5: Multi-Timeframe (Advanced)
**Confirmation Required:**
```
Higher TF (1H):
- Confirmed divergence
- At major POC or zone
Lower TF (15m):
- Early warning triggers
- Entry with better timing
```
**Benefits:**
- HTF gives direction
- LTF gives entry
- Best of both worlds
**Risk/Reward:** 1:3 to 1:5
---
## 📊 Component Details
### CVD Profile
**What the colors mean:**
- **Blue bars** = Buying CVD (demand)
- **Orange bars** = Selling CVD (supply)
- **Lighter shade** = Value Area (70% CVD)
- **Thicker bar** = More volume at that price
**How to use:**
- Thick bars = Support/Resistance
- Profile shape shows market structure
- Balanced profile = range
- Skewed profile = trend
---
### Supply/Demand Zones
**How they're detected:**
1. High Volume Node (1.5x average)
2. CVD buy/sell ratio calculated
3. Ratio ≥ 2.0 → Zone created
4. Sorted by strength (top 8 shown)
**Zone labels show:**
- Type: "Demand" or "Supply"
- Ratio: "2.8:1" = strength
**Not like other indicators:**
- ❌ Other tools use price action alone
- ✅ This uses actual CVD absorption
- Shows WHERE limit orders defended levels
---
### Point of Control (POC)
**What it shows:**
- Price with highest CVD activity
- Market's "fair value"
- Dynamic S/R level
**How to use:**
- Price above POC = bullish bias

## 🔧 Tuning Guide
### Too Cluttered?
**Simplify:**
```
✅ Show Divergences: ON
✅ Show POC: ON
❌ Show Zones: OFF (or reduce to 4-5)
❌ Show Value Area: OFF
❌ Divergence Labels: OFF
→ Clean chart with just lines + POC
```
### Missing Opportunities?
**More Signals:**
```
↓ Pivot Right: 6-7
↓ Early Warning Right: 2
↓ Min Bars Between: 25-30
↓ Min CVD Diff: 2-3%
↓ Min Absorption Ratio: 1.8
```
### Too Many False Signals?
**Stricter Filters:**
```
↑ Pivot Right: 12-15
↑ Min Bars Between: 60
↑ Min CVD Diff: 8-10%
↑ Min Absorption Ratio: 2.5
↓ Max Zones: 4-5
```
### POC Not Making Sense?
**Adjust POC Lookback:**
```
If too high: Increase to 400-500
If too low: Increase to 400-500
If jumping around: Increase to 500+
→ Longer lookback = more stable POC
```

## What This Indicator Does
This indicator combines two powerful concepts to identify complete market cycles:
### 1. Squeeze Momentum (LazyBear)
Detects **volatility compression** (consolidation) and subsequent **expansion** (breakout).
**Think of it like:** A spring being compressed, then released.
### 2. Multi-Timeframe Trend Exhaustion
Measures how far price has moved from its moving averages across multiple timeframes.
**Think of it like:** A rubber band being stretched—eventually it must snap back.
### The Complete Cycle
```
Consolidation → Breakout → Trend → Exhaustion → Reversion → Consolidation
```
This indicator shows you exactly where you are in this cycle.

## Visual Components
### Main Panel (Bottom)
| Element | What It Looks Like | Meaning |
|---------|-------------------|---------|
| **Colored Bars** | Green/Red histogram | Momentum strength and direction |
| **Filled Area** | Yellow/Lime/Red gradient area | Price extension from moving averages |
| **Cross at Zero** | Black/Gray/Blue cross | Squeeze state (volatility) |
| **Dashed Lines** | Horizontal red/green lines | Extension thresholds (±2σ scaled) |
---
### 1. Momentum Histogram (Colored Bars)
| Color | Direction | Meaning |
|-------|-----------|---------|
| **Bright Green** (Lime) | Up ↑ | Strong bullish momentum (increasing) |
| **Dark Green** | Up ↑ | Weak bullish momentum (decreasing) |
| **Bright Red** | Down ↓ | Strong bearish momentum (increasing) |
| **Dark Red** (Maroon) | Down ↓ | Weak bearish momentum (decreasing) |
**Key insight:** When bars change from bright to dark, momentum is fading.
---
### 2. Extension Area (Filled Gradient)
Shows how extended price is from its moving averages across 5 timeframes (5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, Daily).
| Color | Position | Meaning |
|-------|----------|---------|
| **Red** | High above zero | Severely overbought (>2σ scaled) |
| **Orange/Yellow** | Above zero | Moderately overbought |
| **Lime/Green** | Below zero | Moderately oversold |
| **Teal** | Deep below zero | Severely oversold (<-2σ scaled) |
**The area is scaled 3x** for better visibility. Actual values shown in table.
**Reading it:**
- **Area touching upper dashed line** = Price very far above averages (exhaustion territory)
- **Area touching lower dashed line** = Price very far below averages (exhaustion territory)
- **Area near zero** = Price near its averages (normal/neutral)
---
### 3. Squeeze Indicator (Cross at Zero Line)
| Color | Status | Meaning |
|-------|--------|---------|
| **Black** ⚫ | Squeeze ON | Bollinger Bands inside Keltner Channels → Low volatility, consolidation |
| **Gray** ⚪ | Squeeze OFF | Bollinger Bands outside Keltner Channels → Volatility expanding, breakout |
| **Blue** 🔵 | No Squeeze | Normal volatility conditions |
**Critical:** The transition from Black → Gray is where explosive moves begin.
---
### 4. Entry/Exit Signals
| Symbol | Type | Meaning |
|--------|------|---------|
| 🔺 **Large Green Triangle** | HC Long Entry | High Confidence long setup (Squeeze OFF + Oversold + Confluence) |
| 🔻 **Large Red Triangle** | HC Short Entry | High Confidence short setup (Squeeze OFF + Overbought + Confluence) |
| 🔺 Small green | Medium Long | Long setup without full confluence |
| 🔻 Small red | Medium Short | Short setup without full confluence |
| ✕ Orange X | Exit Long | Close long positions (exhaustion detected) |
| ✕ Teal X | Exit Short | Close short positions (exhaustion detected) |
**Trade only the LARGE triangles** for highest probability setups.

## How to Read Signals
### Perfect Long Entry (High Confidence ⭐)
**Requirements (all must be true):**
1. ⚫→⚪ Squeeze just turned OFF (gray cross)
2. 📊 Momentum bars bright GREEN and rising
3. 🔻 Extension area BELOW lower dashed line (oversold)
4. ⭐ Confluence: 3/5 or more timeframes agree (shown as "🔻" in table)
**Visual:** Large green triangle appears
**What this means:** Price was oversold across multiple timeframes, consolidated, and is now breaking out upward with fresh momentum.
**Entry:** Next candle after signal
**Stop Loss:** Below recent consolidation low
**Take Profit:** When extension area crosses back above zero, or when exit signal appears
---
### Perfect Short Entry (High Confidence ⭐)
**Requirements (all must be true):**
1. ⚫→⚪ Squeeze just turned OFF (gray cross)
2. 📊 Momentum bars bright RED and falling
3. 🔺 Extension area ABOVE upper dashed line (overbought)
4. ⭐ Confluence: 3/5 or more timeframes agree (shown as "🔺" in table)
**Visual:** Large red triangle appears
**What this means:** Price was overbought across multiple timeframes, consolidated, and is now breaking down with fresh momentum.
**Entry:** Next candle after signal
**Stop Loss:** Above recent consolidation high
**Take Profit:** When extension area crosses back below zero, or when exit signal appears
---
### Exit Signals
#### Exit Long (Orange X)
**Appears when:**
- Extension area reaches upper dashed line (>2σ)
- Momentum bars turning from bright green to dark green
- Price losing upward velocity
**Action:** Close 50-100% of position. Move stop to breakeven on remainder.
#### Exit Short (Teal X)
**Appears when:**
- Extension area reaches lower dashed line (<-2σ)
- Momentum bars turning from bright red to dark red
- Price losing downward velocity
**Action:** Close 50-100% of position. Move stop to breakeven on remainder.
---
### Medium Confidence Signals (Small Triangles)
These appear when squeeze is OFF and momentum is directional, but:
- Extension is only moderate (not extreme), OR
- Confluence is weak (<3/5 timeframes)
**How to trade:**
- Use smaller position size (50% of normal)
- Tighter stops
- Only take if other factors align (support/resistance, volume, etc.)
---

Indicator: Black cross at zero (Squeeze ON)
Extension: Yellow/Lime area near zero line
Action: Set alert for Squeeze OFF
Step 2: BREAKOUT (⚡)
Chart: Strong green candle breaks resistance
Indicator: Cross turns GRAY (Squeeze OFF)
Bright GREEN momentum bars appear
Extension area still near zero or slightly below
Signal: Large green triangle appears
Action: ENTER LONG
Stop loss below consolidation
Target: Extension upper line
Step 3: TRENDING (↗️)
Chart: Series of higher highs and higher lows
Indicator: Momentum bars stay bright green
Extension area rising toward upper line
Area color transitions yellow → orange → red
Action: HOLD, trailing stop
Step 4: EXHAUSTION (🔴)
Chart: Price makes new high but with smaller candle
Indicator: Extension area touches upper dashed line
Momentum bars turn DARK green (weakening)
Orange X appears
Table shows "EXHAUSTION BULL"

### Understanding the Table
Located in top-right corner:
| Row | Meaning |
|-----|---------|
| **Market State** | Current cycle phase (Consolidation/Breakout/Trending/Exhaustion) |
| **Squeeze** | 🔴 ON / 🟢 OFF / 🔵 No |
| **Momentum** | ↑ Bull / ↓ Bear / ~ Weak / — Neutral |
| **Extension** | Actual value in standard deviations (σ) - NOT scaled |
| **Confluence** | How many timeframes agree (X/5 🔺 or 🔻) |
| **Velocity** | Speed of extension change (↑ increasing, ↓ decreasing) |
| **ACTION** | What to do right now |
**Most important rows:**
1. **Market State** - Quick glance at current cycle
2. **Confluence** - Determines signal quality
3. **ACTION** - Direct guidance
---
## Best Practices
### ✅ DO
1. **Wait for High Confidence signals** (large triangles)
- Don't trade every small signal
- Quality over quantity
2. **Use the complete cycle**
- Enter on Breakout (⚡)
- Hold through Trending (↗️/↘️)
- Exit on Exhaustion (🔴/🟢)
3. **Respect confluence**
- 4/5 or 5/5 = Excellent probability
- 3/5 = Good probability
- 1-2/5 = Skip
4. **Combine with price action**
- Support/resistance levels
- Volume confirmation
- Candlestick patterns
5. **Set alerts**
- "Squeeze OFF" - Don't miss breakouts
- "HC Long Setup" / "HC Short Setup"
- "Exit Long" / "Exit Short"
6. **Scale positions**
- Enter 50% on signal
- Add 25% if extension confirms
- Add final 25% if momentum sustains
7. **Use proper risk management**
- Stop loss: Below/above consolidation
- Position size: 1-2% account risk
- Take profit: Extension targets or signals
---
### ❌ DON'T
1. **Don't trade Consolidation state**
- Black cross (Squeeze ON) = Wait mode
- No signals during consolidation
2. **Don't chase Extended moves**
- If extension already >2σ when Squeeze fires
- Even if momentum looks good
- Wait for reversion first
3. **Don't fight strong trends**
- If extension is growing and momentum strong
- Don't counter-trend trade
- Wait for exhaustion signals
4. **Don't ignore velocity**
- If velocity is ↑ and extension high = still dangerous
- If velocity is ↓ and extension high = safer reversal
5. **Don't trade low confluence**
- 1/5 or 2/5 = Different timeframes disagree
- High chance of false signal
6. **Don't use blindly**
- Check overall market context
- Major news events can override signals
- Trend on higher timeframe matters
7. **Don't overtrade**
- Good setups are rare (that's why they work)
- Wait for complete setup formation
---
## Quick Reference Card
### Signal Quality Checklist
**⭐⭐⭐ PERFECT SETUP (Trade this)**
- Squeeze just turned OFF (⚫→⚪)
- Momentum bright and directional
- Extension >2σ (OPPOSITE direction of entry)
- Confluence ≥3/5
- Large triangle signal
- Action says "LONG/SHORT ENTRY ⭐"
**⭐⭐ GOOD SETUP (Trade with caution)**
- Squeeze OFF
- Momentum directional
- Extension moderate
- Confluence ≥3/5
- Small triangle or Action confirms
**⭐ WEAK SETUP (Skip)**
- Low confluence (<3/5)
- Extension same direction as entry
- Momentum weak or conflicting
- Already in Extended/Exhaustion state
---
### State → Action Quick Guide
| See This State | Do This |
|---------------|---------|
| 💤 CONSOLIDATION | Wait, set alerts |
| ⚡ BREAKOUT | Enter in direction |
| ↗️/↘️ TRENDING | Hold positions |
| ⚠️ EXTENDED | Tighten stops, no new entries |
| 🔴/🟢 EXHAUSTION | Exit, consider reversal |
| — NEUTRAL | No trade |
---
## Troubleshooting
**Q: Indicator shows Exhaustion but price keeps going**
**A:** Check velocity and momentum. If still bright bars + velocity ↑, wait. True exhaustion needs momentum weakening.
**Q: Too many false signals**
**A:** Increase Min Confluence to 4/5. Use longer timeframe chart (4h instead of 1h).
**Q: Missing good trades**
**A:** Set alerts for "Squeeze OFF" and "HC Entry" signals. You can't watch charts 24/7.
**Q: Extension area looks weird**
**A:** Remember it's scaled 3x for visibility. Check table for actual values.
**Q: Which timeframe is best?**
**A:** 4H for swing trading, 1H for day trading. Lower = more signals but more noise.
**Q: Can I use this with other indicators?**
**A:** Yes! Combine with:
- Volume profile
- Support/resistance levels
- Moving averages on chart
- RSI for additional confirmation
---
## Final Thoughts
This indicator gives you a complete picture of market structure:
- **Where are we?** (Market State)
- **Where are we going?** (Momentum)
- **How far can it go?** (Extension)
- **When will it reverse?** (Exhaustion)
The key is **patience**. Wait for the complete setup:
1. Consolidation (⚫ Squeeze ON)
2. Breakout (⚪ Squeeze OFF)
3. Right extension direction (oversold for longs, overbought for shorts)
4. Strong confluence (3/5+)
When all pieces align, you get high-probability trades with clear entries, targets, and exits.
**Trade the cycle, not every wiggle.**

Next Candle PredictorAdvanced TradingView Indicator for Precise Buy and Sell Signals
Overview:
The Predicta Futures - Next Candle Predictor is a cutting-edge TradingView indicator designed to forecast the next candle's direction in futures and cryptocurrency markets. Leveraging a multi-indicator confluence strategy, this tool provides traders with actionable long and short prediction percentages, enhanced by dynamic ADX-based thresholds and visual projection candles. Ideal for scalping, day trading, or swing trading on platforms like MEXC or Binance futures, it combines Supertrend, MACD, RSI, Stochastic, ADX, and volume analysis to deliver high-probability buy and sell signals while minimizing false positives.
Key Features:
• Multi-Indicator Confluence Scoring:
Integrates Supertrend for trend direction, EMAs (8, 21, 50) for alignment, MACD for momentum crossovers, RSI for overbought/oversold conditions, Stochastic for divergence detection, ADX for trend strength, and volume ratios for confirmation. A customizable confluence score (0-6) ensures signals meet user-defined criteria, reducing whipsaws in volatile markets.
• Dynamic Prediction Thresholds:
ADX-driven adjustments lower the required prediction percentage (e.g., 60% in strong trends) for "PERFECT TIME" entries, adapting to market conditions like ranging or trending phases.
• Visual Analysis Table:
A sleek, color-coded dashboard displays progress bars for each indicator, prediction percentages, and status (e.g., "PERFECT TIME" or "WAIT"). Supports long and short analyses with intuitive ASCII bars for quick scans.
• Projection Candles:
Simulates potential next-candle outcomes with volatility-scaled (via Bollinger Bands width) green long and red short candles, aiding in visualizing price targets.
• Buy/Sell Signals and Alerts:
Generates labeled "BUY" and "SELL" arrows on EMA crossovers within confirmed trends, with separate alerts for basic signals and high-confluence "PERFECT TIME" opportunities.
• Customizable Inputs:
Adjust ATR periods, Supertrend factors, minimum confluence scores, and volume ratios to tailor the indicator for stocks, forex, or crypto perpetual futures.
How It Works:
This TradingView script calculates long and short scores using weighted contributions from key indicators, normalizing them into prediction percentages. A confluence check—factoring trend, EMA alignment, MACD, Stochastic, volume, and ADX—triggers "PERFECT TIME" only when conditions align robustly. For example:
• In a downtrend (Supertrend red), with bearish MACD and Stochastic, and sufficient volume, the indicator highlights short opportunities.
• Dynamic thresholds ensure aggressive entries in strong trends (ADX >25) and conservative ones in weak trends.
• Backtested for reliability, it excels in identifying reversals and continuations, making it a must-have for traders seeking an edge in futures trading strategies.
Usage Instructions:
1. Add the indicator to your TradingView chart. (Search: Next Candle Predictor)
2. Customize settings via the inputs panel (e.g., set minConfluence to 5 for stricter signals).
3. Monitor the analysis table for predictions and confluence scores.
4. Act on "BUY/SELL" labels or "PERFECT TIME" alerts, combining with your risk management.
5. Enable projection candles for visual forecasting of the next bar.
Compatible with all timeframes, from 1-minute scalping to daily swings. Note: This is not financial advice; always verify signals with additional analysis.

Gamma Levels - Options Flow# 📊 Gamma Levels - Options Flow Indicator
## TradingView Free Indicator - By AsiaQuant
---
## 🎯 What Is This?
**Gamma Levels** is a simplified TradingView indicator that shows estimated support and resistance levels based on institutional options positioning. It helps traders identify key price zones where options market makers are likely positioned.
### Key Features:
- **⚡ Gamma Flip Level**: The inflection point where dealer hedging behavior changes
- **🔴 Call Wall**: Overhead resistance from call option concentration
- **🟢 Put Support**: Downside support from put option concentration
- **🎯 Trading Zone**: The range between support and resistance
- **📊 Regime Detection**: Positive vs Negative Gamma environments
---
## 📈 How To Use
### 1. **Gamma Flip Level (⚡)**
The Gamma Flip is the most critical level. It represents where market maker hedging flips from stabilizing to destabilizing:
- **Above Gamma Flip**: Positive gamma environment → Lower volatility, mean reversion
- **Below Gamma Flip**: Negative gamma environment → Higher volatility, trend continuation
**Trading Strategy:**
- When price is **above** gamma flip: Fade extremes, trade ranges
- When price is **below** gamma flip: Follow momentum, breakouts more likely
### 2. **Call Wall (🔴)**
The Call Wall represents overhead resistance where heavy call open interest sits:
- Acts as a **magnet** when price approaches from below
- Acts as **resistance** when price tests it
- Breaking above often leads to squeeze moves
**Trading Strategy:**
- Use as profit target for long positions
- Watch for rejection and reversal setups
- Breaking through = potential gamma squeeze
### 3. **Put Support (🟢)**
The Put Support level shows where heavy put positioning provides downside support:
- Acts as **support** on pullbacks
- Breaking below signals bearish momentum
- Often bounces near this level
**Trading Strategy:**
- Use as entry zone for long positions
- Stop loss just below this level
- Breaking through = potential flush lower
### 4. **Trading Zone (Blue Shaded Area)**
The zone between Call Wall and Put Support shows the expected trading range:
- **Narrow zones** = Low volatility, potential breakout setup
- **Wide zones** = High volatility, choppy action expected
- Price tends to stay within this zone
---
## 🚦 Regime Guide
### Positive Gamma Regime (Green Background)
- Price above Gamma Flip
- Lower volatility expected
- Mean reversion strategies work better
- Selling premium strategies favorable
### Negative Gamma Regime (Red Background)
- Price below Gamma Flip
- Higher volatility expected
- Trend following strategies work better
- Directional trades more profitable
---
## ⚠️ Important Limitations
This is a **SIMPLIFIED** indicator that uses price action and volume as proxies for options positioning. It does NOT use real options chain data.
### What This Indicator Does:
✅ Estimates levels using VWAP and ATR
✅ Shows general zones of interest
✅ Provides educational framework
✅ Works on any timeframe
### What This Indicator CANNOT Do:
❌ Access real options open interest
❌ Calculate actual gamma exposure
❌ Account for 0DTE dynamics
❌ Include Vanna/Charm effects
❌ Use volatility surface interpolation

## ❓ FAQ
**Q: Why don't the levels match actual options strikes?**
A: This free version uses price action approximations. For real strike-level precision, use GEX Pro.
**Q: How often should levels update?**
A: The indicator recalculates every bar. For real options data that updates throughout the day, use GEX Pro.
**Q: Can I use this for day trading?**
A: Yes, but it's approximations. For intraday 0DTE positioning, GEX Pro has specialized logic.
**Q: What timeframe works best?**
A: Works on all timeframes, but 15min-1hour is optimal for the simplified calculation.
**Q: Is this better than just support/resistance?**
A: It adds an options perspective, but should complement (not replace) standard TA.

VIX Percentile OscillatorWhat is this script?
This is a trading tool that helps you decide when to buy or sell options based on market volatility. Think of it as a "fear meter" for the stock market.
What is VIX?
VIX = Volatility Index (also called the "fear index")
When VIX is HIGH → Market is scared/volatile → Options are EXPENSIVE
When VIX is LOW → Market is calm → Options are CHEAP
What does "Percentile" mean?
Instead of just showing VIX price, this script shows where VIX is compared to history.
Example: If VIX Percentile = 85%
This means VIX is higher than 85% of all past readings
Only 15% of the time was VIX higher than now
Translation: Volatility is unusually HIGH
The 5 Trading Zones
The script divides the market into 5 zones:
🔴 EXTREME SELLING ZONE (90-100%)
VIX is in the top 10% historically
Action: AGGRESSIVELY SELL OPTIONS (collect big premiums)
Market panic = expensive options = profit for sellers
🟠 SELLING ZONE (80-89%)
VIX is elevated but not extreme
Action: SELL OPTIONS (good premiums available)
⚪ NEUTRAL ZONE (20-79%)
VIX is normal
Action: WAIT or use other strategies
🟢 BUYING ZONE (10-19%)
VIX is low
Action: BUY OPTIONS (they're cheap)
🟢 EXTREME BUYING ZONE (0-9%)
VIX is in the bottom 10% historically
Action: AGGRESSIVELY BUY OPTIONS (bargain prices)
Market complacency = cheap options = opportunity
Understanding the Chart
Main Line (Blue/Red/Green):
Shows current VIX percentile
Color changes based on zone
Thick line = easy to see
Histogram (Background bars):
Red bars = above 50% (high volatility)
Green bars = below 50% (low volatility)
Purple Momentum Line:
Shows if VIX is rising or falling
Helps you catch trends early
Background Colors:
Light red/orange = Selling zones
Light green = Buying zones
Triangle Markers:
Appear when entering new zones
"EXTREME" label = strongest signals
The Statistics Table (Top Right)
VIX Price: Current VIX value (e.g., 16.50)
Percentile: Where VIX ranks (0-100%)
Z-Score: Statistical measure
Above +2 or below -2 = extreme
Red text = unusually high/low
Momentum: Rate of change
Red = rising (volatility increasing)
Green = falling (volatility decreasing)
Avg VIX: Average VIX over lookback period
Current Zone: Which zone you're in right now
Bars in Zone: How long you've been in this zone
Simple Trading Rules
FOR OPTION SELLERS (Premium Collectors):
✅ SELL when: Percentile > 80% (especially > 90%)
High premiums available
Examples: Sell covered calls, cash-secured puts, credit spreads
FOR OPTION BUYERS (Hedgers/Speculators):
✅ BUY when: Percentile < 20% (especially < 10%)
Cheap options available
Examples: Buy protective puts, long calls, debit spreads
Key Settings You Can Adjust
Lookback Period (default: 252)
How far back to compare (252 = 1 year of trading days)
Longer = smoother, more stable
Shorter = more sensitive to recent changes
Smoothing Period (default: 3)
Reduces noise/wiggling
Higher = smoother line
Lower = more responsive
Zone Thresholds:
Extreme Sell: 90%
Sell: 80%
Buy: 20%
Extreme Buy: 10%
You can customize these!
Real-World Example
Scenario: VIX Percentile jumps to 92%
What this means:
VIX is higher than 92% of all past readings
Market is in panic mode
Option premiums are INFLATED
Trading Action:
✅ Sell covered calls on stocks you own
✅ Sell cash-secured puts on stocks you want to buy
✅ Sell credit spreads
❌ DON'T buy expensive options right now
Why it works: When fear is extreme, it usually calms down eventually. You profit as premiums deflate.
Important Reminders
⚠️ This is a TIMING tool, not a crystal ball
It tells you WHEN premiums are expensive/cheap
It doesn't tell you WHICH options to trade
You still need proper risk management
⚠️ Works on ALL timeframes
Daily charts = swing trading
Weekly charts = position trading
Intraday charts = day trading volatility
⚠️ Best for:
Option sellers during high VIX (>80%)
Option buyers during low VIX (<20%)
Portfolio hedging decisions
Volatility trading strategies
Bottom Line: This script helps you buy options when they're cheap and sell options when they're expensive. It's like shopping for sales, but for volatility!

Box Theory [Interactive Zones] PyraTimeThis script combines Nicholas Darvas’s "Box Theory" with modern Supply and Demand (Premium/Discount) concepts. It automatically identifies the most recent Swing High and Swing Low to delineate the current trading range.
The purpose of this tool is to visualize market structure and help traders identify when price is relatively expensive (Premium) or cheap (Discount) within a defined range.
Visual Guide: What You Are Seeing
The Box: Represents the active trading range defined by the most recent significant Swing High and Swing Low.
Red Zone (Premium): The top 25% of the range. Mathematically, prices here are considered "expensive" relative to the current structure.
Green Zone (Discount): The bottom 25% of the range. Prices here are considered "cheap" relative to the current structure.
Grey Zone (Equilibrium): The middle 50% of the range. This is the area of fair value where price often consolidates.
Dashed Line (EQ): The exact 50% midpoint of the range.
Tutorial: How to Trade Using This Indicator
Method 1: Mean Reversion (Range Trading) This method applies when the market is moving sideways.
Identify Structure: Wait for a box to form.
Wait for Extremes: Do not trade when price is in the middle (Grey/White area). Wait for price to enter the Red or Green zones.
Entry Trigger:
Shorts: When price enters the Red Zone, look for a rejection (wicks leaving the zone) or a lower timeframe breakdown. Target the EQ (Midline) as your first take profit.
Longs: When price enters the Green Zone, look for support formation. Target the EQ (Midline) as your first take profit.
Method 2: Trend Continuation (Breakouts) This method applies when the market is trending strongly.
Breakout: Monitor the alerts. A close outside the box indicates a potential shift in market structure.
Retest: After a breakout up, the old "Red Zone" (Resistance) often flips to become new Support. Wait for price to pull back to the top of the old box before entering.
Configuration Guide (Settings)
Pivot Left/Right Bars (Sensitivity):
Default (20/20): Best for Swing Trading. It filters out market noise and only draws boxes based on major structural points.
Lower (5/5): Best for Scalping. It will create smaller, more frequent boxes but increases the risk of false signals.
Zone Percentage:
Default (25%): Standard deviation for Supply/Demand zones.
Alternative (15%): Use this for "sniping" entries at the absolute extremes of the range.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF):
Enable "Use Higher Timeframe" to see Daily or Weekly ranges while trading on lower timeframes (like the 15m or 1H). This helps keep your intraday trades aligned with the major trend.
Technical Note on "Lag" This indicator uses Pivots to draw the box. A pivot is only confirmed after a certain number of bars have passed (the "Pivot Right Bars" setting).
Example: If "Pivot Right Bars" is set to 20, the box will update 20 bars after the actual high or low occurred. This is necessary to confirm that the point was indeed a Swing High/Low. Do not treat the box lines as predictive; they are reactive to confirmed structure.
RSI Divergence + MTF Table FinalThis is a professional, high-impact English description for your RSI Divergence + MTF Table Final script, designed to attract users on TradingView by highlighting its institutional-grade features.
Institutional RSI Divergence & MTF Confluence Heatmap
Overview
The Institutional RSI Divergence & MTF Confluence Heatmap is a professional-grade analytical tool designed for high-precision traders. It combines Automated RSI Divergence Detection with a Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Heatmap Table, allowing you to monitor market momentum across 8 different timeframes (from 1-minute to 1-day) without ever switching charts.
Key Features
🔍 Automated Divergence Detection: Instantly identifies Regular Bullish and Bearish divergences on the RSI oscillator, marking them with clear "Bull" and "Bear" labels.
📊 MTF Heatmap Grid: A real-time monitoring table that tracks RSI values across: 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 4h, 12h, and 1D.
🎨 Dynamic "Institutional" Color Logic: The table uses a sophisticated color-coded system to highlight extreme exhaustion and momentum:
Ultra Overbought (RSI > 90): Bright Red (Extreme Reversal Zone).
Overbought (RSI > 80): Orange (High Momentum/Caution).
Oversold (RSI < 26): Lime Green (Potential Accumulation).
Neutral: Gray (Consolidation).
🛠️ Flexible Layout Engine: Toggle between Vertical or Horizontal layouts to fit your chart workspace perfectly.
🚀 Pine Script v6 Optimized: Built with the latest TradingView engine for ultra-fast performance and minimal lag.
Trading Strategy: The Power of Confluence
Cross-Timeframe Confirmation: The strongest reversals occur when multiple timeframes (e.g., 15m, 1h, and 4h) all turn Orange/Red or Lime simultaneously. This represents a massive momentum exhaustion.
Divergence Validation: Use the table to see if a detected "Bull" divergence on your current timeframe is backed by "Oversold" conditions on higher timeframes.
Institutional Sniping: Combined with Demand/Supply zones, this script helps you "snipe" entries at the exact moment market momentum peaks or bottoms out.
Settings & Customization
Toggle Compact Mode: Display a minimal version of the table for a cleaner interface.
Custom Thresholds: Modify RSI levels to suit your specific trading style (Scalping vs. Swing Trading).
Table Position: Move the heatmap to any corner of your screen (Top Right, Bottom Left, etc.).
Account GuardianAccount Guardian: Dynamic Risk/Reward Overlay
Introduction
Account Guardian is an open-source indicator for TradingView designed to help traders evaluate trade setups before entering positions. It automatically calculates Risk-to-Reward ratios based on market structure, displays visual Stop Loss and Take Profit zones, and provides real-time position sizing recommendations.
The indicator addresses a fundamental question every trader should ask before entering a trade: "Does this setup make mathematical sense?" Account Guardian answers this question visually and numerically, helping traders avoid impulsive entries with poor risk profiles.
Core Functionality
Account Guardian performs four primary functions:
Detects swing highs and swing lows to identify logical stop loss placement levels
Calculates Risk-to-Reward ratios for both long and short setups in real-time
Displays visual SL/TP zones on the chart for immediate trade planning
Computes position sizing based on your account size and risk tolerance
The goal is to provide traders with instant feedback on whether a potential trade meets their minimum risk/reward criteria before committing capital.
How It Works
Swing Detection
The indicator uses pivot point detection to identify recent swing highs and swing lows on the chart. These swing points serve as logical areas for stop loss placement:
For Long Trades: The most recent swing low becomes the stop loss level. Price breaking below this level would invalidate the bullish thesis.
For Short Trades: The most recent swing high becomes the stop loss level. Price breaking above this level would invalidate the bearish thesis.
The swing detection lookback period is configurable, allowing you to adjust sensitivity based on your trading timeframe and style.
It automatically adjusts the tp and sl when it is applied to your chart so it is always moving up and down!
Risk/Reward Calculation
Once swing levels are identified, the indicator calculates:
Entry Price: Current close price (where you would enter)
Stop Loss: Recent swing low (for longs) or swing high (for shorts)
Risk: Distance from entry to stop loss
Take Profit: Entry plus (Risk × Target Multiplier)
R:R Ratio: Reward divided by Risk
The R:R ratio is then evaluated against your configured thresholds to determine if the setup is valid, marginal, or poor.
Visual Elements
SL/TP Zones
When enabled, the indicator draws colored boxes on the chart showing:
Red Zone: Stop Loss area - the region between your entry and stop loss
Green/Gold/Red Zone: Take Profit area - colored based on R:R quality
The color coding provides instant visual feedback:
Green: R:R meets or exceeds your "Good R:R" threshold (default 3:1)
Gold: R:R meets minimum threshold but below "Good" (between 2:1 and 3:1)
Red: R:R below minimum threshold - setup should be avoided
Swing Point Markers
Small circles mark detected swing points on the chart:
Green circles: Swing lows (potential support / long SL levels)
Red circles: Swing highs (potential resistance / short SL levels)
Dashboard Panel
The dashboard in the top-right corner displays comprehensive trade planning information:
R:R Row: Current Risk-to-Reward ratio for long and short setups
Status Row: VALID, OK, BAD, or N/A based on R:R thresholds
Stop Loss Row: Exact price level for stop loss placement
Take Profit Row: Exact price level for take profit placement
Pos Size Row: Recommended position size based on your risk parameters
Risk $ Row: Dollar amount at risk per trade
Position Sizing Logic
The indicator calculates position size using the formula:
Position Size = Risk Amount / Risk per Unit
Where:
Risk Amount = Account Size × (Risk Percentage / 100)
Risk per Unit = Entry Price - Stop Loss Price
For example, with a $10,000 account risking 1% per trade ($100), if your entry is at 100 and stop loss at 98 (risk of 2 per unit), your position size would be 50 units.
Input Parameters
Swing Detection:
Swing Lookback: Number of bars to look back for pivot detection (default: 10). Higher values find more significant swing points but may be slower to update.
Target Multiplier: Multiplier applied to risk to calculate take profit distance (default: 2). A value of 2 means TP is 2× the distance of SL from entry.
Risk/Reward Thresholds:
Minimum R:R: Minimum acceptable Risk-to-Reward ratio (default: 2.0). Setups below this show as "BAD" in red.
Good R:R: Threshold for excellent setups (default: 3.0). Setups at or above this show as "VALID" in green.
Account Settings:
Account Size ($): Your trading account size in dollars (default: 10,000). Used for position sizing calculations.
Risk Per Trade (%): Percentage of account to risk per trade (default: 1.0%). Professional traders typically risk 0.5-2% per trade.
Display:
Show SL/TP Zones: Toggle visibility of the colored zone boxes on chart (default: enabled)
Show Dashboard: Toggle visibility of the information panel (default: enabled)
Analyze Direction: Choose to analyze Long only, Short only, or Both directions (default: Both)
How to Use This Indicator
Basic Workflow:
Add the indicator to your chart
Configure your account size and risk percentage in the settings
Set your minimum and good R:R thresholds based on your trading rules
Look at the dashboard to see current R:R for potential long and short entries
Only consider trades where the status shows "VALID" or at minimum "OK"
Use the displayed SL and TP levels for your order placement
Use the position size recommendation to determine lot/contract size
Interpreting the Dashboard:
VALID (Green): Excellent setup - R:R meets your "Good" threshold. This is the ideal scenario for taking a trade.
OK (Gold): Acceptable setup - R:R meets minimum but isn't optimal. Consider taking if other confluence factors align.
BAD (Red): Poor setup - R:R below minimum threshold. Avoid this trade or wait for better entry.
N/A (Gray): Cannot calculate - usually means no valid swing point detected yet.
Best Practices:
Use this indicator as a filter, not a signal generator. It tells you IF a trade makes sense, not WHEN to enter.
Combine with your existing entry strategy - use Account Guardian to validate setups from other analysis.
Adjust the swing lookback based on your timeframe. Lower timeframes may need smaller lookback values.
Be honest with your account size input - accurate position sizing requires accurate inputs.
Consider the target multiplier carefully. Higher multipliers mean larger potential reward but lower probability of hitting TP.
Alerts
The indicator includes four alert conditions:
Good Long Setup: Triggers when long R:R reaches or exceeds your "Good R:R" threshold
Good Short Setup: Triggers when short R:R reaches or exceeds your "Good R:R" threshold
Bad Long Setup: Triggers when long R:R falls below your minimum threshold
Bad Short Setup: Triggers when short R:R falls below your minimum threshold
These alerts can help you monitor multiple charts and get notified when favorable setups appear.
Technical Implementation
The indicator is built using Pine Script v6 and includes:
Pivot-based swing detection using ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow()
Dynamic box drawing for visual SL/TP zones
Table-based dashboard for clean information display
Color-coded visual feedback system
Persistent variable tracking for swing levels
Code Structure:
// Swing Detection
float swingHi = ta.pivothigh(high, swingLen, swingLen)
float swingLo = ta.pivotlow(low, swingLen, swingLen)
// R:R Calculation for Long
float longSL = recentSwingLo
float longRisk = entry - longSL
float longTP = entry + (longRisk * targetMult)
float longRR = (longTP - entry) / longRisk
// Position Sizing
float riskAmount = accountSize * (riskPct / 100)
float posSize = riskAmount / longRisk
Limitations
The indicator uses historical swing points which may not always represent optimal SL placement for your specific strategy
Position sizing assumes you can trade fractional units - adjust accordingly for instruments with minimum lot sizes
R:R calculations assume linear price movement and don't account for gaps or slippage
The indicator doesn't predict price direction - it only evaluates the mathematical viability of a setup
Swing detection has inherent lag due to the lookback period required for pivot confirmation
Recommended Settings by Trading Style
Scalping (1-5 minute charts):
Swing Lookback: 5-8
Target Multiplier: 1-2
Minimum R:R: 1.5
Good R:R: 2.0
Day Trading (15-60 minute charts):
Swing Lookback: 8-12
Target Multiplier: 2
Minimum R:R: 2.0

Swing Lookback: 10-20
Target Multiplier: 2-3
Minimum R:R: 2.5
Good R:R: 4.0
Why Risk/Reward Matters
Many traders focus solely on win rate, but profitability depends on the combination of win rate AND risk/reward ratio. Consider these scenarios:
50% win rate with 1:1 R:R = Breakeven (before costs)
50% win rate with 2:1 R:R = Profitable
40% win rate with 3:1 R:R = Profitable
60% win rate with 1:2 R:R = Losing money
Account Guardian helps ensure you only take trades where the math works in your favor, even if you're wrong more often than you're right.

Malama's Range BreakoutMalama's Range Breakout is a dynamic indicator designed to automatically detect periods of price consolidation (tight ranges) and generate actionable signals for breakouts or wick-based reversals.
Why It's Useful: Unlike fixed-time tools like Opening Range Breakouts (ORB), this indicator is Adaptive. It uses a volatility-adjusted threshold (ATR multiplier) to determine when a market is truly consolidating. This helps traders avoid false signals in choppy markets and focus on periods where volatility is compressing.
Key Features:
Adaptive Detection: Uses ATR over a user-defined lookback to find tight ranges automatically.
Preset Profiles: Quickly switch between optimized settings for:
Scalping: (Tight Ranges)
Intraday: (Normal Ranges)
Swing Trading: (Loose Ranges)
Options/Chop: (Extreme sideways movement)
Breakout Signals: Triggers "BUY/SELL" labels when price closes outside the box. Includes an optional Volume Filter to ignore low-momentum breakouts.
Wick Reversals: Detects "Fake-outs" where wicks probe the range boundary but fail to close outside, signaling a potential reversal back into the range.
How to Use:
Select a Profile: Choose "Normal" for standard day trading or "Tight" for scalping.
Wait for the Box: The indicator will draw an orange box when price consolidates.
Trade the Break: Wait for a confirmed close outside the box (Look for the "Malama BUY/SELL" label).
Watch for Rejection: If you see a "Wick" label, it means the breakout failed—be cautious or trade the reversal.
Settings:
Profile: Select your trading style (Scalping, Intraday, Swing).
Volume Filter: Require a volume spike to confirm breakouts (Recommended).
Wick Confirmation: Require a confirmation candle before signaling a wick reversal.
