Session Open Range, Breakout & Trap Framework - TrendPredator OBSession Open Range, Breakout & Trap Framework — TrendPredator Open Box
Stacey Burke’s trading approach combines concepts from George Douglas Taylor, Tony Crabel, Steve Mauro, and Robert Schabacker. His framework focuses on reading price behaviour across daily templates and identifying how markets move through recurring cycles of expansion, contraction, and reversal. While effective, much of this analysis requires real-time interpretation of session-based behaviour, which can be demanding for traders working on lower intraday timeframes.
The TrendPredator indicators formalize parts of this methodology by introducing mechanical rules for multi-timeframe bias tracking and session structure analysis. They aim to present the key elements of the system—bias, breakouts, fakeouts, and range behaviour—in a consistent and objective way that reduces discretionary interpretation.
The Open Box indicator focuses specifically on the opening behaviour of major trading sessions. It builds on principles found in classical Open Range Breakout (ORB) techniques described by Tony Crabel, where a defined time window around the session open forms a structural reference range. Price behaviour relative to this range—breaking out, failing back inside, or expanding—can highlight developing session bias, potential trap formation, and directional conviction.
This indicator applies these concepts throughout the major equity sessions. It automatically maps the session’s initial range (“Open Box”) and tracks how price interacts with it as liquidity and volatility increase. It also incorporates related structural references such as:
* the first-hour high and low of the futures session
* the exact session open level
* an anchored VWAP starting at the session open
* automated expansion levels projected from the Open Box
In combination, these components provide a unified view of early session activity, including breakout attempts, fakeouts, VWAP reactions, and liquidity targeting. The Open Box offers a structured lens for observing how price transitions through the major sessions (Asia → London → New York) and how these behaviours relate to higher-timeframe bias defined in the broader TrendPredator framework.
Core Features
Open Box (Session Structure)
The indicator defines an initial session range beginning at the selected session open. This “Open Box” represents a fixed time window—commonly the first 30 minutes, or any user-defined duration—that serves as a structural reference for analysing early session behaviour.
The range highlights whether price remains inside the box, breaks out, or rejects the boundaries, providing a consistent foundation for interpreting early directional tendencies and recognising breakout, continuation, or fakeout characteristics.
How it works:
* At the session open, the indicator calculates the high and low over the specified time window.
* This range is plotted as the initial structure of the session.
* Price behaviour at the boundaries can illustrate emerging bias or potential trap formation.
* An optional secondary range (e.g., 15-minute high/low) can be enabled to capture early volatility with additional precision.
Inputs / Options:
* Session specifications (Tokyo, London, New York)
* Open Box start and end times (e.g., equity open + first 30 minutes, or any custom length)
* Open Box colour and label settings
* Formatting options for Open Box high and low lines
* Optional secondary range per session (e.g., 15-minute high/low)
* Forward extension of Open Box high/low lines
* Number of historic Open Boxes to display
Session VWAPs
The indicator plots VWAPs for each major trading session—Asia, London, and New York—anchored to their respective session opens. These session-specific VWAPs assist in tracking how value develops through the day and how price interacts with session-based volume distributions.
How it works:
* At each session open, a VWAP is anchored to the open price.
* The VWAP updates throughout the session as new volume and price data arrive.
* Deviations above or below the VWAP may indicate balance, imbalance, or directional control.
* Viewed together, session VWAPs help identify transitions in value across sessions.
Inputs / Options:
* Enable or disable VWAP per session
* Adjustable anchor and end times (optionally to end of day)
* Line styling and label settings
* Number of historic VWAPs to draw
First Hour High/Low Extensions
The indicator marks the high and low formed during the first hour of each session. These reference points often function as early control levels and provide context for assessing whether the session is establishing bias, consolidating, or exhibiting reversal behaviour.
How it works:
* After the session starts, the indicator records the highest and lowest prices during the first hour.
* These levels are plotted and extended across the session.
* They provide a visual reference for observing reactions, targets, or rejection zones.
Inputs / Options:
* Enable or disable for each session
* Line style, colour, and label visibility
* Number of historic sessions displayed
EQO Levels (Equity Open)
The indicator plots the opening price of each configured session. These “Equity Open” levels represent short-term reference points that can attract price early in the session.
Once the level is revisited after the Open Box has formed, it is automatically cut to avoid clutter. If not revisited, the line remains as an untested reference, similar to a naked point of control.
How it works:
* At session open, the open price is recorded.
* The level is plotted as a local reference.
* If price interacts with the level after the Open Box completes, the line is cut.
* Untested EQOs extend forward until interacted with.
Inputs / Options:
* Enable/disable per session
* Line style and label settings
* Optional extension into the next day
* Option for cutting vs. hiding on revisit
* Number of historic sessions displayed
OB Range Expansions (Automatic)
Range expansions are calculated from the height of the Open Box. These levels provide structured reference zones for identifying potential continuation or exhaustion areas within a session.
How it works:
* After the Open Box is formed, multiples of the range (e.g., 1×, 2×, 3×) are projected.
* These expansion levels are plotted above and below the range.
* Price reactions near these areas can illustrate continuation, hesitation, or potential reversal.
Inputs / Options:
* Enable or disable per session
* Select number of multiples
* Line style, colour, and label settings
* Extension length into the session
Stacey Burke 12-Candle Window Marker
The indicator can highlight the 12-candle window often referenced in Stacey Burke’s session methodology. This window represents the key active period of each session where breakout attempts, volatility shifts, and reversal signatures often occur.
How it works:
* A configurable window (default 12 candles) is highlighted from each session open.
* This window acts as a guide for observing active session behaviour.
* It remains visible throughout the session for structural context.
Inputs / Options:
* Enable/disable per session
* Configurable window duration (default: 3 hours)
* Colour and transparency controls
Concept and Integration
The Open Box is built around the same multi-timeframe logic that underpins the broader TrendPredator framework.
While higher-timeframe tools track bias and setups across the H8–D–W–M levels, the Open Box focuses on the H1–M30 domain to define session structure and observe how early intraday behaviour aligns with higher-timeframe conditions.
The indicator integrates with the TrendPredator FO (Breakout, Fakeout & Trend Switch Detector), which highlights microstructure signals on lower timeframes (M15/M5). Together they form a layered workflow:
* Higher timeframes: context, bias, and developing setups
* TrendPredator OB: intraday and intra-session structure
* TrendPredator FO: microstructure confirmation (e.g., FOL/FOH, switches)
This alignment provides a structured way to observe how daily directional context interacts with intraday behaviour.
See the public open source indicator TP FO here (click on it for access):
Practical Application
Before Session Open
* Review previous session Open Box, Open level, and VWAPs
* Assess how higher-timeframe bias aligns with potential intraday continuation or reversal
* Note untested EQO levels or VWAPs that may function as liquidity attractors
During Session Open
* Observe behaviour around the first-hour high/low and higher-timeframe reference levels
* Monitor how the M15 and 30-minute ranges close
* Track reactions relative to the session open level and the session VWAP
After the Open Box completes
* Assess price interaction with Open Box boundaries and first-hour levels
* Use microstructure signals (e.g., FOH/FOL, switches) for potential confirmation
* Refer to expansion levels as reference zones for management or target setting
After Session
* Review how price behaved relative to the Open Box, EQO levels, VWAPs, and expansion zones
* Analyse breakout attempts, fakeouts, and whether intraday structure aligned with the broader daily move
Example Workflow and Trade
1. Higher-timeframe analysis signals a Daily Fakeout Low Continuation (bullish context).
2. The New York session forms an Open Box; price breaks above and holds above the first-hour high.
3. A Fakeout Low + Switch Bar appears on M5 (via FO), after retesting the session VWAP triggering the entry.
4. 1x expansion level serves as reference targets for take profit.
Relation to the TrendPredator Ecosystem
The Open Box is part of the TrendPredator Indicator Family, designed to apply multi-timeframe logic consistently across:
* higher-timeframe context and setups
* intraday and session structure (OB)
* microstructure confirmation (FO)
Together, these modules offer a unified structure for analysing how daily and intraday cycles interact.

Análisis de tendencia
Future High LinePlot a horizontal line from the current high n bars into the future. Line is user configurable.
Works well with Ichimoku Cloud. When line (26 bars) rises into an overhead cloud, this often signals bullish price movement.
Divergence Detector (MACD + Volume)Divergence Detector (MACD + Volume Confirmation)
This indicator automatically detects bullish and bearish divergences between price and MACD, enhanced with volume confirmation to filter out weak signals.
🔹 Core Logic
Pivot Detection:
The script identifies swing highs and lows (pivots) using customizable left/right lookback values.
Bullish Divergence:
Occurs when price makes a lower low, but MACD makes a higher low.
A label "Bull Div" appears below the bar; if confirmed by high volume, it shows "Bull Div 🔥".
Bearish Divergence:
Occurs when price makes a higher high, but MACD makes a lower high.
A label "Bear Div" appears above the bar; if confirmed by high volume, it shows "Bear Div 📉".
Volume Confirmation:
The indicator checks whether the volume at the pivot bar is above the moving average of volume (customizable length).
This ensures that divergence signals are backed by strong market participation.
Inputs
MACD Fast/Slow/Signal Length – standard MACD parameters
Pivot Lookback Left/Right – defines the swing structure sensitivity
Volume MA Length – defines how volume strength is validated
Output
Labels:
🔹 Bull Div / Bull Div 🔥 → Bullish divergence (confirmed with volume)
🔹 Bear Div / Bear Div 📉 → Bearish divergence (confirmed with volume)
Tips
Works best on higher timeframes and trending markets.
Volume confirmation helps filter false divergences in low liquidity conditions.
Combine with trend or structure indicators for better trade setups.

Super-AO with Risk Management Strategy Template - 11-29-25Super-AO Strategy with Advanced Risk Management Template
Signal Lynx | Free Scripts supporting Automation for the Night-Shift Nation 🌙
1. Overview
Welcome to the Super-AO Strategy. This is more than just a buy/sell indicator; it is a complete, open-source Risk Management (RM) Template designed for the Pine Script community.
At its core, this script implements a robust swing-trading strategy combining the SuperTrend (for macro direction) and the Awesome Oscillator (for momentum). However, the real power lies under the hood: a custom-built Risk Management Engine that handles trade states, prevents repainting, and manages complex exit conditions like Staged Take Profits and Advanced Adaptive Trailing Stops (AATS).
We are releasing this code to help traders transition from simple indicators to professional-grade strategy structures.
2. Quick Action Guide (TL;DR)
Best Timeframe: 4 Hours (H4) and above. Designed for Swing Trading.
Best Assets: "Well-behaved" assets with clear liquidity (Major Forex pairs, BTC, ETH, Indices).
Strategy Type: Trend Following + Momentum Confirmation.
Key Feature: The Risk Management Engine is modular. You can strip out the "Super-AO" logic and insert your own strategy logic into the template easily.
Repainting: Strictly Non-Repainting. The engine calculates logic based on confirmed candle closes.
3. Detailed Report: How It Works
A. The Strategy Logic: Super-AO
The entry logic is based on the convergence of two classic indicators:
SuperTrend: Determines the overall trend bias (Green/Red).
Awesome Oscillator (AO): Measures market momentum.
The Signal:
LONG (+2): SuperTrend is Green AND AO is above the Zero Line AND AO is Rising.
SHORT (-2): SuperTrend is Red AND AO is below the Zero Line AND AO is Falling.
By requiring momentum to agree with the trend, this system filters out many false signals found in ranging markets.
B. The Risk Management (RM) Engine
This script features a proprietary State Machine designed by Signal Lynx. Unlike standard strategies that simply fire orders, this engine separates the Signal from the Execution.
Logic Injection: The engine listens for a specific integer signal: +2 (Buy) or -2 (Sell). This makes the code a Template. You can delete the Super-AO section, write your own logic, and simply pass a +2 or -2 to the RM_EngineInput variable. The engine handles the rest.
Trade States: The engine tracks the state of the trade (Entry, In-Trade, Exiting) to prevent signal spamming.
Aggressive vs. Conservative:
Conservative Mode: Waits for a full trend reversal before taking a new trade.
Aggressive Mode: Allows for re-entries if the trend is strong and valid conditions present themselves again (Pyramiding Type 1).
C. Advanced Exit Protocols
The strategy does not rely on a single exit point. It employs a "Layered Defense" approach:
Hard Stop Loss: A fixed percentage safety net.
Staged Take Profits (Scaling Out): The script allows you to set 3 distinct Take Profit levels. For example, you can close 10% of your position at TP1, 10% at TP2, and let the remaining 80% ride the trend.
Trailing Stop: A standard percentage-based trailer.
Advanced Adaptive Trailing Stop (AATS): This is a highly sophisticated volatility stop. It calculates market structure using Hirashima Sugita (HSRS) levels and Bollinger Bands to determine the "floor" and "ceiling" of price action.
If volatility is high: The stop loosens to prevent wicking out.
If volatility is low: The stop tightens to protect profit.
D. Repainting Protection
Many Pine Script strategies look great in backtesting but fail in live trading because they rely on "real-time" price data that disappears when the candle closes.
This Risk Management engine explicitly pulls data from the previous candle close (close , high , low ) for its calculations. This ensures that the backtest results you see match the reality of live execution.
4. For Developers & Modders
We encourage you to tear this code apart!
Look for the section titled // Super-AO Strategy Logic.
Replace that block with your own RSI, MACD, or Price Action logic.
Ensure your logic outputs a 2 for Buy and -2 for Sell.
Connect it to RM_EngineInput.
You now have a fully functioning Risk Management system for your custom strategy.

TheStrat: Timeframe Continuity Failed 2This indicator highlights TheStrat Failed 2 reversals only when the market is in Full Time Frame Continuity (FTFC) based on your chosen timeframes.
It is designed for high-probability directional trades with strong trend confirmation.
⸻
What It Detects
Failed 2 (Reversal Setup)
A Failed 2 occurs when price breaks one side of the previous candle, then fails and closes in the opposite direction:
• Failed 2D → Bullish reversal
• Failed 2U → Bearish reversal
This produces trapped breakout traders, often leading to explosive continuation.
FTFC measures whether price is above or below the opening price of higher timeframes.
If selected timeframes are all aligned, trend conviction is strong.
You can toggle ON/OFF each timeframe to define FTFC:
• 1H
• 1D
• 1W
• 1M
• 1Q
• 1Y
Only the timeframes you select must agree.
⸻
Modes for Different Styles
This indicator supports different trading horizons.
Swing Mode (Recommended for Options 1–5 Days Out)
Focus: Fast multi-day trend continuation
Ideal holding: 1–5 days
Best for: Weekly option expirations
Enable:
• 1H → Entry trigger timeframe
• 1D → Short-term direction
• 1W → Swing trend
• 1M → Macro push behind the move
• Q / Y not required
You end up catching the 1H reversal ignition, with Daily/Weekly/Monthly backing it.
Great for:
• Tuesday–Thursday continuation plays
• Multi-day directional runs
• “Ride the weekly magnitude”
Macro Mode (Long-Term Trend Filter)
Focus: Broad market bias
Ideal holding: weeks to months
Best for: Equity swing traders, leaps, ETF positioning
Enable:
• 1W
• 1M
• 1Q
• 1Y
• 1H / 1D not required
Used to ensure you’re riding institutional trend, not counter-trend noise.
Can be paired with a lower-TF entry tool like this indicator running in Swing Mode.
Label Up “F2D FTFC↑!” —— Bullish Failed-2 triggers FTFC → long setup
Label Down “F2U FTFC↓!” —— Bearish Failed-2 triggers FTFC → short setup
Small Circles —— Failed-2 continuation while FTFC remains intact
Optional Intrabar Alerts when price begins to form a Failed-2.
All plotted entries are close-confirmed unless you enable intrabar alerts.
Elite Federal Reserve AIThe Elite Federal Reserve AI indicator provides an analytical framework focused on monitoring economic and market conditions that influence Federal Reserve policy decisions. The indicator examines key relationships and rate-of-change metrics across multiple proxies for monetary policy drivers.
The indicator tracks and analyzes:
• Yield curve dynamics through rate-of-change measurements in short and intermediate-term Treasury yields
• Inflation expectations via TIPS breakeven rate momentum
• Dollar strength and its rate of change over specified periods
• Financial market stress indicators including volatility and sector performance metrics
• Breadth measures through small capitalization stock performance
The indicator calculates momentum and rate-of-change values across these variables to identify shifts in the economic and financial conditions that serve as primary inputs to Federal Reserve decision-making. By monitoring the velocity of change in these key relationships, the indicator provides insight into the changing balance between inflationary pressures, growth expectations, financial stability concerns, and currency dynamics.
This approach focuses on the observable market-based indicators that reflect the underlying economic conditions the Federal Reserve considers in its policy formulation, enabling users to assess the prevailing policy environment through the lens of these critical market relationships and their momentum characteristics.
Trend BG v2Trend BG v2 colors the chart background based on Directional Movement (DM) and DI strength. It provides an easy visual way to identify trending and non-trending conditions on any timeframe.
How It Works
The script calculates:
Upward Directional Movement (DM+)
Downward Directional Movement (DM–)
True Range smoothed with RMA (14-period)
Positive DI and Negative DI values from classic ADX logic
The trend state is determined by comparing +DI vs –DI:
+DI > –DI → Uptrend
–DI > +DI → Downtrend
Otherwise → Neutral / Sideways
The script then applies a background color based on the detected trend.
Color transparency and theme can be adjusted using the input options.
Why This Script Is Useful
Instead of plotting DI lines or ADX curves, this version presents the trend directly on the background, making it ideal for:
Quick trend recognition
Visual filtering of choppy vs trending markets
Enhancing manual or automated setups
Intraday scalping, positional trend following, and multi-timeframe analysis
The background display is subtle, customizable, and does not interfere with other indicators on the chart.
Key Features
Trend-colored chart background (Up / Down / Neutral)
Adjustable color palette and transparency
Built using classic Directional Movement logic
Works on all markets and all timeframes
Lightweight and efficient (no repainting)
How to Use It
Apply the indicator on your chart and use the background colors to:
Align trades with the market trend
Avoid trading during neutral or low-momentum periods
Confirm trend direction before entries
Improve clarity when using your existing indicators
This indicator does not generate buy/sell signals by itself; instead, it helps visualize the underlying trend environment so traders can make more informed decisions.
The Trade Plan 9 & 15 EMA⭐ What Are EMAs?
An Exponential Moving Average (EMA) gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive than a simple moving average.
9-EMA = very fast, reacts quickly to price changes
15-EMA = slightly slower, smooths short-term noise
Together they help identify momentum shifts.
📈 How the 9/15 EMA Strategy Works
1. Buy Signal (Bullish Crossover)
You enter a long (buy) trade when:
➡ 9 EMA crosses above the 15 EMA
This suggests momentum is shifting upward and a new uptrend may be forming.
2. Sell Signal (Bearish Crossover)
You enter a short (sell) trade or exit long positions when:
➡ 9 EMA crosses below the 15 EMA
This suggests momentum is turning downward.
🔧 How Traders Typically Use It
Entry
Wait for a clear crossover.
Confirm with price closing on the same side of EMAs.
Some traders add confirmation using RSI, MACD, or support/resistance.
Exit
Several options:
Exit when the opposite crossover occurs.
Exit at predetermined risk-reward levels (e.g., 1:2).
Use trailing stop below/above EMAs.
👍 Strengths
Easy to follow
Good for fast-moving markets
Works well on trending markets
Minimal indicators needed
👎 Weaknesses
Whipsaws in sideways markets
Many false signals on very low timeframes
Works best with additional filters
🕒 Common Timeframes
Scalping: 1m, 5m
Day trading: 5m, 15m
Swing trading: 1H, 4H
DarkPool's Dashboard v2 DarkPool's Dashboard v2 is a comprehensive "Heads-Up Display" (HUD) designed to aggregate critical market data into a single, customizable table overlaid on the price chart. Its primary goal is to declutter the trading workspace by removing the need for multiple separate indicator panes (like RSI, MACD, and Volume below the chart).
The core of the system is a composite Momentum Score, which calculates a value between -100 and +100 based on a weighted average of RSI, MACD, Stochastic, and Rate of Change (ROC). This score drives the main "Signal" output (e.g., STRONG BUY, HOLD, SELL). Additionally, the dashboard integrates a suite of volume analysis tools—including VWAP, OBV, and Volume Delta—alongside volatility and trend filters to provide a complete market health check at a glance.
Key Features
Composite Momentum Score: A unified metric combining four oscillators to gauge the true strength of the move.
Volume Intelligence: Monitors Relative Volume (RVOL), On-Balance Volume (OBV), Volume Delta, and VWAP status.
Trend & Filter Engine: Visualizes trend direction using EMAs and filters signals based on Volatility (ATR) and Trend Strength (EMA Separation).
Dynamic UI: A fully scalable and customizable table that can be positioned anywhere on the screen, with options to toggle specific data rows on or off.
Alert System: Integrated alerts for Volume Spikes, Divergences, and VWAP crossovers.
How to Use
1. Reading the Main Signal The top rows of the dashboard provide the immediate trade bias:
Signal: Displays text such as "STRONG BUY," "BUY," "HOLD," "SELL," or "STRONG SELL."
Momentum Score: A numeric value next to the signal.
> 50: Strong Bullish Momentum.
20 to 50: Moderate Bullish Momentum.
-20 to 20: Neutral / Hold (Chop).
<-20: Bearish Momentum.
2. Volume Analysis
Volume Bar: Visualizes the current volume relative to the Moving Average.
Spike: If the bar turns Orange/Yellow, a Volume Spike (default 2x average) has occurred.
VWAP: Indicates if the price is trading "Above" or "Below" the Volume Weighted Average Price.
Money Flow (MFI): Checks for institutional buying/selling pressure. "OB" means Overbought, "OS" means Oversold.
3. Trend & Volatility
Trend: Shows "UP" or "DOWN" based on Fast/Slow EMA crossovers.
Volatility: Measures the daily range. "HIGH" volatility suggests expansion, while "LOW" suggests compression (potential breakout pending).
4. Filtering Bad Signals The dashboard includes an "ATR Filter" and "Trend Confirmation" logic.
If the market is moving sideways (low ATR), the dashboard may default to "HOLD" or "NEUTRAL" even if oscillators are crossing, preventing false entries during consolidation.
Configuration Settings
Dashboard Settings
Table Position/Width/Scale: adjust the size and location of the table to fit your screen resolution (e.g., increase scale for 4K monitors).
Colors/Transparency: Customize the background and text colors to match your chart theme.
Indicator Settings
Oscillators: Adjust lengths for RSI, MACD, and Stochastic to tune sensitivity.
Volume: Enable or disable specific volume metrics like OBV or Delta.
Display Options: You can toggle specific rows off (e.g., turn off "ADX" or "SMA" if you do not use them) to compact the table.
Filter Settings
Enable ATR Filter: Toggles volatility filtering.
Trend Confirmation Bars: How many bars the trend must persist before the dashboard flips its bias (helps avoid fake-outs).

GOLD EMA Crossover Strategy This EMA Crossover Strategy is designed for intraday trading on the 5-minute chart.
It uses three EMAs (fast, mid, slow) to identify momentum shifts and trigger long or short entries. Risk management is dollar-based, with default settings of $100 risk per trade and $300 profit target. Entries are taken when the fast EMA crosses above/below the mid or slow EMA, with stops and targets calculated dynamically. The strategy runs across all hours and uses fixed position sizing (default 3 contracts). It is intended as a framework for traders to adapt and optimize to their own instruments and risk preferences.
DarkPool's Squeeze Momentum @author LazyBearDarkPool's Squeeze Momentum Pro is a comprehensive overhaul of the classic volatility indicator, designed for the modern trader who requires deeper market insight. While staying true to the core logic of the original TTM Squeeze, this version introduces advanced features like automatic divergence detection, dynamic moving average selection, and main-chart integration to help you time entries and exits with precision.
Credit: This script is built upon the foundational "Squeeze Momentum Indicator" originally developed by LazyBear. This version expands on that legacy with enhanced visualization, alert systems, and divergence logic.
Key Features
1. Advanced Divergence Detection
The indicator automatically scans for Regular Bullish and Regular Bearish divergences between price action and momentum.
Bullish Divergence (Green "BULL" Label): Occurs when Price makes a Lower Low, but Momentum makes a Higher Low. This often precedes a bullish reversal.
Bearish Divergence (Red "BEAR" Label): Occurs when Price makes a Higher High, but Momentum makes a Lower High. This often precedes a bearish reversal.
2. Multi-Mode Squeeze Detection
The central dots on the zero line tell you the state of market volatility:
Red Dot (Squeeze ON): Volatility is compressed. The Bollinger Bands are inside the Keltner Channels. The market is "coiling" and preparing for an explosive move. Do not trade yet—wait for the fire.
Grey Dot (Squeeze OFF): The squeeze has "fired." Volatility is expanding, and price is moving.
Blue Dot (Wide Bands): Volatility is extremely high. The bands are exceptionally wide, often indicating the end of a trend or a period of high risk.
3. "Ghost" Histogram & Visual Depth
The momentum histogram features a "Ghost" fill (transparent background) to help visualize the volume of momentum without cluttering the screen.
Bright Green: Strong Bullish Momentum (Rising).
Dark Green: Weakening Bullish Momentum (Fading).
Bright Red: Strong Bearish Momentum (Falling).
Dark Red: Weakening Bearish Momentum (Recovering).
4. Dynamic Candle Coloring
Enabled by default, this feature colors the candles on your main chart to match the momentum histogram. This allows you to instantly gauge the trend strength without looking down at the oscillator pane.
5. Adaptive Calculation Engines
Unlike standard versions fixed to SMA, you can now select the moving average algorithm that drives the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels:
SMA: Standard, stable signals.
EMA: More reactive to recent price action.
WMA/RMA: Weighted options for specific strategies.
🛠 How to Operate
The "Squeeze & Fire" Strategy
Identify the Squeeze: Look for a series of Red Dots on the zero line. This indicates the market is resting and building energy.
The Trigger: Wait for the dot to turn Gray AND for the histogram to expand clearly in one direction.
Long Signal: Squeeze fires (Red -> Gray) + Histogram turns Green.
Short Signal: Squeeze fires (Red -> Gray) + Histogram turns Red.
The "Divergence Reversal" Strategy
Watch for "BULL" or "BEAR" labels appearing near the peaks or valleys of the histogram.
Confirmation: A divergence is a warning. Wait for the histogram color to change (e.g., from Bright Red to Dark Red) before entering a reversal trade.
⚙️ Settings Guide
Basis MA Type: Choose between SMA, EMA, WMA, or RMA to tune the sensitivity of the squeeze.
BB/KC Settings: Fully customizable Length and Multipliers to adapt to different assets (Crypto, Forex, or Stocks).
Pivot Lookback: Controls how strict the divergence detection is. Higher numbers = fewer, more significant signals.
Colour Main Chart Candles: Toggle this OFF if you prefer your standard candle colours.

1. Overview
This is the Indicator / Alerts companion to the Super-AO Strategy.
While the Strategy version is built for backtesting (verifying profitability and checking historical performance), this Indicator version is built for Live Execution.
We understand the frustration of finding a great strategy, only to realize you can't easily hook it up to your trading bot. This script solves that. It contains the exact same "Super-AO" logic and "Risk Management Engine" as the strategy version, but it is optimized to send signals to automation platforms like Signal Lynx, 3Commas, or any Webhook listener.
2. Quick Action Guide (TL;DR)
Purpose: Live Signal Generation & Automation.
Workflow:
Use the Strategy Version to find profitable settings.
Copy those settings into this Indicator Version.
Set a TradingView Alert using the "Any Alert() function call" condition.
Best Timeframe: 4 Hours (H4) and above.
Compatibility: Works with any webhook-based automation service.
3. Why Two Scripts?
Pine Script operates in two distinct modes:
Strategy Mode: Calculates equity, drawdowns, and simulates orders. Great for research, but sometimes complex to automate.
Indicator Mode: Plots visual data on the chart. This is the preferred method for setting up robust alerts because it is lighter weight and plots specific values that automation services can read easily.
The Golden Rule: Always backtest on the Strategy, but trade on the Indicator. This ensures that what you see in your history matches what you execute in real-time.
4. How to Automate This Script
This script uses a "Visual Spike" method to trigger alerts. Instead of drawing equity curves, it plots numerical values at the bottom of your chart when a trade event occurs.
The Signal Map:
Blue Spike (2 / -2): Entry Signal (Long / Short).
Yellow Spike (1 / -1): Risk Management Close (Stop Loss / Trend Reversal).
Green Spikes (1, 2, 3): Take Profit Levels 1, 2, and 3.
Setup Instructions:
Add this indicator to your chart.
Open your TradingView "Alerts" tab.
Create a new Alert.
Condition: Select SAO - RM Alerts Template.
Trigger: Select Any Alert() function call.
Message: Paste your JSON webhook message (provided by your bot service).
5. The Logic Under the Hood
Just like the Strategy version, this indicator utilizes:
SuperTrend + Awesome Oscillator: High-probability swing trading logic.
Non-Repainting Engine: Calculates signals based on confirmed candle closes to ensure the alert you get matches the chart reality.
Advanced Adaptive Trailing Stop (AATS): Internally calculates volatility to determine when to send a "Close" signal.

$TGM | Topological Geometry Mapper (Custom)TGM | Topological Geometry Mapper (Custom) – 2025 Edition
The first indicator that reads market structure the way institutions actually see it: through persistent topological features (Betti-1 collapse) instead of lagging price patterns.
Inspired by algebraic topology and persistent homology, TGM distills regime complexity into a single, real-time proxy using the only two macro instruments that truly matter:
• CBOE:VIX – market fear & convexity
• TVC:DXY – dollar strength & global risk appetite
When the weighted composite β₁ persistence drops below the adaptive threshold → market structure radically simplifies. Noise dies. Order flow aligns. A directional explosion becomes inevitable.
Features
• Structural Barcode Visualization – instantly see complexity collapsing in real time
• Dynamic color system:
→ Neon green = long breakout confirmed
→ red = short breakout confirmed
→ yellow = simplification in progress (awaiting momentum)
→ deep purple = complex/noisy regime
• Clean HUD table with live β₁ value, threshold, regime status and timestamp
• Built-in high-precision alerts (Long / Short / Collapse)
• Zero repaint – uses only confirmed data
• Works on every timeframe and every market
Best used on:
BTC, ETH, ES/NQ, EURUSD, GBPUSD, NAS100, SPX500, Gold – anywhere liquidity is institutional.
This is not another repainted RSI or MACD mashup.
This is structural regime detection at the topological level.
Welcome to the future of market geometry.
Made with love for the real traders.
Open-source. No paywalls. No BS.

Renko + PnF Bias Overlay v6Description:
The Renko + PnF Bias Overlay indicator provides a synthesized directional bias derived from manual implementations of both Renko and Point & Figure charting methodologies applied to standard time-based price data.
The indicator calculates Renko brick movements based on ATR-derived brick sizes, creating a noise-filtered representation that only registers significant price movements exceeding the specified brick size threshold. Renko direction changes occur only when price moves a full brick size beyond the previous brick.
Simultaneously, the indicator implements Point & Figure box counting logic with reversal requirements, where directional changes require a minimum of three boxes in the opposite direction, providing additional filtering of minor price fluctuations.
By combining these two price transformation methodologies, the indicator generates a composite directional bias that emphasizes sustained price movements while filtering out minor fluctuations and noise. The resulting bias reflects the underlying trend direction as determined by both the brick-based momentum filtering of Renko charts and the reversal confirmation requirements of Point & Figure charting.
This approach provides a robust trend-following signal that requires both significant price displacement and sustained directional commitment before registering a change in bias.
PALUTLA BUY SELL✅ BUY Signal Logic
A BUY label appears when:
EMA 9 crosses ABOVE EMA 21
AND
Price is trading ABOVE VWAP
This confirms that short-term momentum has turned bullish and price is aligned with the day’s average value — a strong intraday uptrend setup.
🔻 SELL Signal Logic
A SELL label appears when:
EMA 9 crosses BELOW EMA 21
AND
Price is trading BELOW VWAP
This confirms bearish momentum and trade alignment below value, indicating downward continuation potential.
🎯 Visual Features
• Green background / BUY labels → Bullish zone
• Red background / SELL labels → Bearish zone
• Grey background → No-trade zone
• EMA 9 and EMA 21 plotted on the price chart
• VWAP plotted as the session trend reference line
• Clear BUY/SELL labels on crossover candles
⏱ Best Timeframes
➡ Works best on intraday charts:
1m – 15m
VWAP is session-based, so daily/weekly timeframes are not recommended.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This indicator provides technical trade signals only.
Not financial advice.
Always use proper risk management and confirmation before trading.
Elite Correlation Matrix AIThe Elite Correlation Matrix AI indicator provides comprehensive real-time correlation analysis across multiple asset classes, displaying the interrelationships between equities, bonds, commodities, currencies, and volatility instruments.
The indicator calculates and displays correlation coefficients between a predefined set of major market indices and instruments, including:
• Major equity indices (SPY, QQQ, IWM)
• Long-term Treasury bonds (TLT)
• Gold (GLD)
• Crude oil (USO)
• Volatility (VIX)
• US Dollar Index (DXY)
• Bitcoin (BTCUSD)
Key features include:
• Rolling correlation calculations across user-defined periods to identify both short-term and longer-term relationships
• Visual correlation heat map showing the strength and direction of relationships between all tracked instruments
• Detection of correlation breakdowns, which often precede significant market regime shifts
• Dashboard display providing summary metrics of prevailing correlation patterns
The indicator enables users to monitor the current state of market relationships and identify when traditional correlations begin to break down, which frequently serves as an early warning of impending changes in market behavior. By tracking the degree of connectedness between different asset classes, the indicator provides insight into the current risk environment and the potential for diversification effectiveness.
This analysis is particularly valuable for understanding periods of market stress when asset relationships deviate from their normal patterns, as well as identifying environments where traditional correlations hold and where they are undergoing structural changes.
