Mehul - ADX Zero LagThis script combines two popular technical indicators into a single visualization:
1. **Average Directional Index (ADX)**:
- Measures trend strength on a scale from 0-100 (now normalized to 0-1 by dividing by 100)
- Displayed as a red line
- Adjustable smoothing and length parameters
2. **Zero Lag MACD (Modified Moving Average Convergence Divergence)**:
- An enhanced version of the traditional MACD with reduced lag
- Shows the relationship between fast and slow moving averages
- Main components include:
- MACD line (black)
- Signal line (gray)
- Histogram (green for positive, purple for negative)
- EMA of the MACD line (red)
- Optional crossing dots
Key features of the combined indicator:
- **Scale Adjustment**: Both indicators can be scaled independently (adxScale and macdScale parameters)
- **Visibility Toggles**: Each indicator can be shown or hidden
- **Advanced Customization**: Parameters for both indicators can be fine-tuned
- **Algorithm Selection**: Option to choose between the "Glaz" algorithm or the "real" zero lag algorithm
- **Display Options**: Toggles for visualization elements like crossing dots
The most significant technical aspect is that both indicators are displayed in the same pane with compatible scaling, achieved by normalizing the ADX values and applying user-defined scale factors to both indicators.
This combined indicator is designed to give traders a comprehensive view of both trend strength (from ADX) and momentum/direction (from Zero Lag MACD) in a single, easy-to-read visualization.

BRT CHARTS MTFDescription of the Indicator
This indicator is designed to visualize and analyze price movements across multiple timeframes simultaneously. It displays candles from selected time intervals directly on the current chart, allowing traders to quickly assess market conditions without switching between different timeframes. This is particularly useful for traders who use multi-timeframe analysis to make trading decisions.
Key Features of the Indicator:
1. Displaying Candles from Multiple Timeframes:
- The indicator allows you to select three timeframes (e.g., 1 hour, 4 hours, and 1 day) and displays their candles on the current chart. This helps to see the overall market picture without switching between charts.
- Candles are displayed as vertical columns, each containing the body and wicks (shadows) of the candle. The colors of the candles (green for bullish and red for bearish) are customizable.
2. Dynamic Updates:
- The indicator automatically updates the candles as new data arrives, allowing you to track market changes in real time.
3. Customizable Number of Candles:
- The user can choose how many candles to display for each timeframe (default is 4 candles). This allows the indicator to be adapted to individual needs.
4. Range Display (High/Low):
- The indicator can show High and Low levels for each timeframe, helping to identify key support and resistance levels.
- It is also possible to display the Mid level (average between High and Low), which can be useful for identifying consolidation zones.
5. Data Table:
- The indicator supports displaying a table with key levels (High, Low, Mid) for each timeframe. The table can be placed in any corner of the chart, and its size and text/background colors are customizable.
6. Flexible Appearance Settings:
- The user can customize the colors of the candles, their wicks, High/Low/Mid levels, as well as the placement of the columns on the chart.
How the Indicator Helps in Trading:
- Multi-Timeframe Analysis: The indicator allows you to analyze multiple timeframes simultaneously, helping to better understand the overall trend and find entry points. For example, if the trend is bullish on the daily timeframe and there is a correction on the hourly timeframe, this could be a good opportunity to buy.
- Identifying Key Levels: Displaying High, Low, and Mid levels helps quickly identify support and resistance zones, which is useful for setting stop-loss and take-profit levels.
- Time-Saving: The indicator eliminates the need to switch between timeframes, speeding up the analysis and decision-making process.
- Visual Clarity: Visualizing candles from different timeframes on a single chart makes analysis more convenient and intuitive.
Example Use Cases:
1. Trend Trading: If a clear uptrend is visible on the daily timeframe and a correction is occurring on the hourly timeframe, you can look for buy opportunities near support levels.
2. Range Trading: If the price is moving sideways across all timeframes, you can use High and Low levels to trade from the boundaries of the range.
3. Identifying Reversal Points: If the price approaches a key resistance level on the higher timeframe and a bearish candle forms on the lower timeframe, this could be a signal to sell.
Conclusion:
This indicator is a powerful tool for traders who use multi-timeframe analysis. It helps quickly assess market conditions, identify key levels, and make informed trading decisions. Thanks to its flexible settings, the indicator can be adapted to any trading style and visualization preferences.

Momentum Candle Identifier # Momentum Candle Identifier
This indicator helps traders identify significant momentum candles by analyzing candle body size relative to recent price action (think after consolidation periods). Unlike traditional volatility indicators, this tool specifically focuses on price movement captured by the candle body (open to close distance), filtering out potentially misleading wicks.
## How It Works
- The indicator calculates the average candle body size over a user-defined lookback period
- Momentum candles are identified when their body size exceeds the average by a customizable threshold multiplier
- Bullish momentum candles (close > open) are highlighted in a user defined color
- Bearish momentum candles (close < open) are highlighted in a user defined color
- A real-time information panel displays key metrics including current average body size and threshold values
## Key Features
- Focus on candle body size rather than full range (high to low)
- Custom lookback period to adapt to different timeframes
- Adjustable threshold multiplier to fine-tune sensitivity
- Customizable colors for bullish and bearish momentum candles
- Optional labels for momentum candles
- Information panel showing lookback settings, average size, and momentum candle count
## Usage Tips
- Use shorter lookback periods (3-5) for more signals in choppy markets
- Use longer lookback periods (8-20) to identify only the most significant momentum moves
- Higher threshold multipliers (2.0+) will identify only the strongest momentum candles
- Combine with trend indicators to find potential reversal or continuation signals
- Look for clusters of momentum candles to identify strong shifts in market sentiment
This indicator helps identify candles that represent significant price movement relative to recent activity, potentially signaling changes in market momentum, sentiment shifts, or the beginning of new trends.
Zen ABR### **Average Bar Range (ABR) Levels** – A Simple Yet Powerful Scalping Tool
The **ABR Levels** indicator dynamically calculates the **average bar range** and plots three key levels on your chart:
✅ **0.5x ABR** – Half the average bar range
✅ **1x ABR** – The full average bar range
✅ **2x ABR** – Double the average bar range
This provides an **instant volatility gauge**, helping traders adjust position size, stop losses, and targets **based on current market conditions** rather than arbitrary numbers.
### **How It Works**
- The indicator calculates **the average range of the last 8 bars** (default setting, adjustable).
- The **ABR levels update in real time**, appearing in the **top-right corner of your chart** for easy reference.
- Works across **any instrument and timeframe** – great for scalpers and intraday traders.
### **Why Use ABR Levels?**
🚀 **Avoid oversized losses** – Trade dynamically instead of using fixed stops and targets.
📉 **Recognize shifts in market conditions** – Identify when volatility is expanding or contracting.
🎯 **Refine your entries & exits** – Use ABR levels to **scale** your positions intelligently.
### **Pro Tip:**
Never enter a trade **aiming for half-R** profits. If a trade goes badly, **you might manage it to break even or half-R**, but aiming for tiny wins will **wreck your long-term edge**.
🔹 **This script is open-source!** If you're not on TradingView, you can copy the code into any AI tool to generate it for your platform. 🚀
Heikin-Ashi Reversals with Region & DotsIf you want to use Heiken Ashi candles as a way to screen for bullish and bearish reversal.
Green background is stay long and strong. Red background = potential top or bearish continuation.
Yellow dots show strong red heiken ashi candles with small upside wicks. The next candle determines whether it should be green or red. If next heiken ashi candle closes above the current candle = green, bull trend still in line. If next heiken ashi candle closes below, then time to sell
Time Box Breakout IndicatorPlots Boxes with breakout signals on whatever timeframe the user selects.
Allows for users to see higher timeframe ranges on lower timeframes.
Useful for scalpers taking advantage of momentum, combined with support and resistance on higher timeframes.
Aids in visualizing risk, ranges and trends.
Wick Order IndicatorThe script tells you what formed first in the wick, the high or the low.
If the high formed first, the upper wick would be labeled 1 and lower wick would be labeled 2.
If the low formed first, the lower wick would be labeled 1 and higher wick would be labeled 2.
If there's only one wick or no wicks, there would be no labels.
MTF Round Level Reversal [RunRox]🧲 MTF Round Level Reversal is an indicator designed to highlight price levels on the chart where the market encountered significant resistance or support at round numbers, failing to break through large clusters of orders.
In many cases, price revisits these round-number levels to absorb the remaining liquidity, offering potential reversal or continuation trade opportunities.
✏️ EXAMPLE
Here’s an example demonstrating how this indicator works and how its logic is structured:
As shown in the screenshot above, price encountered resistance at round-number levels, clearly reacting off these areas.
Afterward, the market pulled back, presenting opportunities to enter trades targeting these previously established open levels.
This logic is based on the observation that price often seeks to revisit these open round-number levels due to the residual liquidity resting there.
While effective across various markets, this indicator performs particularly well with stocks or assets priced at higher values.
For a level to appear on the chart, price must first encounter a round-number value and clearly reverse from it, leaving a visible reaction on the chart. After this occurs, the indicator will mark this level as fully formed and display it as an active reversal area.
⚙️ SETTINGS
🔷 Timeframe – Choose any timeframe from which you’d like the indicator to source level data.
🔷 Period – Defines the number of candles required on both sides (left and right) to confirm and fully form a level.
🔷 Rounding Level – Adjusts price rounding precision when detecting levels (from 0.0001 up to 5000).
🔷 Color – Customize the color and transparency of displayed levels.
🔷 Line Style – Select the desired line style for level visualization.
🔷 Label Size – Set the font size for the level labels displayed on the chart.
🔷 Move Label to the Right – Move level labels to the right side of the screen for better visibility.
🔷 Label Offset – Specifies how many bars labels should be offset from the chart’s right edge.
🔷 Delete Filled Level – Automatically removes levels from the chart after they’ve been revisited or filled.
🔷 Calculation Bars – Determines the number of recent bars considered when calculating and identifying levels.
🔶 There are numerous ways to apply this indicator in your trading strategy. You can look for trades targeting these round-number levels or identify reversal setups forming at these high-liquidity zones. The key insight is understanding that these levels represent significant liquidity areas, which price frequently revisits and retests.
We greatly appreciate your feedback and suggestions to further improve and enhance this indicator!
Candle Close CountdownA simple indicator that counts down major candle closes.
This is especially useful if you're trading on low time frames but want to know when higher time frame candles close for volatility / reversal points.
It can also be useful to use it as a visual reminder to actually go check how a candle has closed.
- There are alerts for when a candle is going to close you can enable
- The text turns red 15% of the time BEFORE the candle closes
Triangle Reversal IndicatorTriangle Reversal Indicator – A Visual Tool for Identifying Reversal Patterns
This indicator is designed to highlight potential trend reversal moments by comparing the current candle with the previous one. It offers a unique approach by focusing on distinct candle patterns rather than generic trend indicators, making it a valuable addition to your trading toolkit.
How It Works:
For a bullish signal, the indicator checks if:
The current candle is bullish (closing higher than it opens) while the previous candle was bearish.
The current candle’s low breaches the previous bearish candle’s low.
The current candle’s close is above the previous bearish candle’s close.
When these conditions are met, a tiny green triangle is plotted below the candle to signal a potential bullish reversal.
Conversely, for a bearish signal, it verifies if:
The current candle is bearish (closing lower than it opens) following a bullish candle.
The current candle’s high exceeds the previous bullish candle’s high.
The current candle’s close falls below the previous bullish candle’s close.
If all conditions are satisfied, a small red triangle appears above the candle to indicate a potential bearish reversal.
How to Use:
Simply apply the indicator on your chart and look for the tiny triangles that appear above or below the candles. These markers can serve as an additional visual cue when confirming entry or exit points, but it’s best used alongside your other analysis techniques.
Customization Options:
Users can further enhance the script by adding inputs for lookback periods, adjusting the triangle size, or modifying colors to match their chart themes.

Engulfing Sweeps - Milana TradesEngulfing Sweeps
The Engulfing Sweeps Candle is a candlestick pattern that:
1)Takes liquidity from the previous candle’s high or low.
2)Fully engulfs previous candles upon closing.
3)Indicates strong buying or selling pressure.
4)Helps determine the bias of the next candle.
Logic Behind Engulfing Sweeps
If you analyze this candle on a lower timeframe, you’ll often see popular models like PO3 (Power of Three) or AMD (Accumulation – Manipulation – Distribution).
Once the candle closes, the goal is to enter a position on the retracement of the distribution phase.
How to Use Engulfing Sweeps?
Recommended Timeframes:
4H, Daily, Weekly – these levels hold significant liquidity.
Personally, I prefer 4H, as it provides a solid view of mid-term market moves.
Step1 - Identify Engulfing Sweep Candle
Step 2-Switch to a lower timeframe (15m or 5m).And you task identify optimal trade entry
Look for an entry pattern based on:
FVG (Fair Value Gap)
OB (Order Block)
FIB levels (0/0.25/0.5/ 0.75/ 1)
Wait for confirmation and take the trade.
Automating with TradingView Alerts
To avoid missing the pattern, you can set up alerts using a custom script. Once the pattern forms, TradingView will notify you so you can analyze the chart and take action. This approch helps me be more freedom

TrendPredator FOTrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter (FO)
The TrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter is designed to enhance multi-timeframe trend analysis by identifying key market behaviors that indicate trend strength, weakness, and potential reversals. Inspired by Stacey Burke’s trading approach, this tool focuses on trend-following, momentum shifts, and trader traps, helping traders capitalize on high-probability setups.
At its core, this indicator highlights peak formations—anchor points where price often locks in trapped traders before making decisive moves. These principles align with George Douglas Taylor’s 3-day cycle and Steve Mauro’s BTMM method, making the FO Highlighter a powerful tool for reading market structure. As markets are fractal, this analysis works on any timeframe.
How It Works
The TrendPredator FO highlights key price action signals by coloring candles based on their bias state on the current timeframe.
It tracks four major elements:
Breakout/Breakdown Bars – Did the candle close in a breakout or breakdown relative to the last candle?
Fakeout Bars (Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low and close back inside, but still in line with the trend?
Fakeout Bars (Counter-Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low, close back inside, and against the trend?
Switch Bars – Did the candle lose/ reclaim the breakout/down level of the last bar that closed in breakout/down, signalling a possible trend shift?
Reading the Trend with TrendPredator FO
The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
- Breakouts → Strong Trend
Multiple candles closing in breakout signal a healthy and strong trend.
- Fakeouts (Trend Close) → First Signs of Weakness
Candles that break out but close back inside suggest a potential slowdown—especially near key levels.
- Fakeouts (Counter-Trend Close) → Stronger Reversal Signal
Closing against the trend strengthens the reversal signal.
- Switch Bars → Momentum Shift
A shift in trend is confirmed when price crosses back through the last closed breakout candles breakout level, trapping traders and fuelling a move in the opposite direction.
- Breakdowns → Trend Reversal Confirmed
Once price breaks away from the peak formation, closing in breakdown, the trend shift is validated.
Customization & Settings
- Toggle individual candle types on/off
- Customize colors for each signal
- Set the number of historical candles displayed
Example Use Cases
1. Weekly Template Analysis
The weekly template is a core concept in Stacey Burke’s trading style. FO highlights individual candle states. With this the state of the trend and the developing weekly template can be evaluated precisely. The analysis is done on the daily timeframe and we are looking especially for overextended situations within a week, after multiple breakouts and for peak formations signalling potential reversals. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
📈 Example: Weekly Template Analysis snapshot on daily timeframe
2. High Timeframe 5-Star Setup Analysis (Stacey Burke "ain't coming back" ACB Template)
This analysis identifies high-probability trade opportunities when daily breakout or down closes occur near key monthly levels mid-week, signalling overextensions and potentially large parabolic moves. Key signals for this are breakout or down closes occurring on a Wednesday. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration. Also an indicator can bee seen on this chart shading every Wednesday to identify the signal.
📉 Example: High Timeframe Setup snapshot
3. Low Timeframe Entry Confirmation
FO helps confirm entry signals after a setup is identified, allowing traders to time their entries and exits more precisely. For this the highlighted Switch and/ or Fakeout bars can be highly valuable.

Auto Fib Retracement with Buy/SellKey Features of the Advanced Script:
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis:
We added an input for the higher timeframe (higher_tf), where the trend is checked on a higher timeframe to confirm the primary trend direction.
Complex Trend Detection:
The trend is determined not only by the current timeframe but also by the trend on the higher timeframe, giving a more comprehensive and reliable signal.
Dynamic Fibonacci Levels:
Fibonacci lines are plotted dynamically, extending them based on price movement, with the Fibonacci retracement drawn only when a trend is identified.
Background Color & Labels:
A background color is added to give a clear indication of the trend direction. Green for uptrend, red for downtrend. It makes it visually easier to understand the current market structure.
"Buy" or "Sell" labels are shown directly on the chart to mark possible entry points.
Strategy and Backtesting:
The script includes strategy commands (strategy.entry and strategy.exit), which allow for backtesting the strategy in TradingView.
Stop loss and take profit conditions are added (loss=100, profit=200), which can be adjusted according to your preferences.
Next Steps:
Test with different timeframes: Try changing the higher_tf to different timeframes (like "60" or "240") and see how it affects the trend detection.
Adjust Fibonacci settings: Modify how the Fibonacci levels are calculated or add more Fibonacci levels like 38.2%, 61.8%, etc.
Optimize Strategy Parameters: Fine-tune the entry/exit logic by adjusting stop loss, take profit, and other strategy parameters.
This should give you a robust foundation for creating advanced trend detection strategies
Ivan Gomes StrategyIG Signals+ - Ivan Gomes Strategy
This script is designed for scalping and binary options trading, generating buy and sell signals at the beginning of each candle. Although it is mainly optimized for short-term operations, it can also be used for medium and long-term strategies with appropriate adjustments.
How It Works
• The indicator provides buy or sell signals at the start of the candle, based on a statistical probability of candle patterns, depending on the timeframe.
• It is essential to enter the trade immediately after the signal appears and exit at the end of the same candle.
• If the first operation results in a loss (Loss), the script will send another trade signal at the start of the next candle. However, if the first trade results in a win (Gain), no new signal will be generated.
• The signals follow cycles of 3 candles, regardless of the timeframe. However, if a Doji candle appears, the cycle is interrupted, and no signals will be generated until the next valid cycle starts.
• The strategy consists of up to two trades per cycle: if the first trade is not successful, the second trade serves as an additional attempt to recover.
Key Points to Consider
1. Avoid trading in sideways markets – If price levels do not fluctuate significantly, the accuracy of the signals may decrease.
2. Trade in the direction of the trend – Using Ichimoku clouds or other trend indicators can help confirm trend direction and improve signal reliability. If the market is in an uptrend (bullish trend) and the indicator generates a sell signal, the most prudent decision would be to wait for a buy signal that aligns with the main trend. The same applies to downtrends, where buy signals may be riskier.
These decisions should be based on chart reading and supported by other technical analysis tools, such as support and resistance levels, which indicate zones where price might face obstacles or reverse direction. Additionally, Fibonacci retracement levels can help identify possible pullback points within a trend. Moving averages are also useful for visualizing the general market direction and confirming whether an indicator signal aligns with the overall price structure. Combining these tools can increase trade accuracy and prevent unnecessary trades against the main trend, reducing risks.
3. Works based on probability statistics – The algorithm analyzes candle formations and their statistical probabilities depending on the timeframe to optimize trade entries.
4. Best suited for scalping and binary options – This strategy performs best in 1-minute and 5-minute timeframes, allowing for multiple trades throughout the day.
Technical Details
• The script detects the candle cycle and assigns an index to each candle to identify patterns and possible reversals.
• It recognizes reference candles, stores their colors, and compares them with subsequent candles to determine if a signal should be triggered.
• Doji candle rules are implemented to avoid false signals in indecisive market conditions. When a Doji appears, the script does not generate signals for that cycle.
• The indicator displays visual alerts and notifications, ensuring fast execution of trades.
Disclaimer
The IG Signals+ indicator was created to assist traders who struggle to analyze the market by providing objective trade signals. However, no strategy is foolproof, and this script does not guarantee profits.
Trading involves significant financial risk, and users should test it in a demo account before trading with real money. Proper risk management is crucial for long-term success.
AntoQQE - BarsThis script is a variation on the QQE (Quantitative Qualitative Estimation) concept applied to RSI. It calculates a smoothed RSI line, then determines a “Dynamic Average Range” around that line. By tracking the RSI’s movement relative to these upper (shortBand) and lower (longBand) levels, it determines when price momentum shifts enough to suggest a possible trend flip. The script plots color-coded candles based on these momentum conditions:
• RSI Calculation and Smoothing
An RSI value is obtained over a specified period, then smoothed by an EMA. This smoothed RSI serves as the core measure of momentum.
• Dynamic Average Range (DAR)
The script computes the volatility of the smoothed RSI using two EMAs of its bar-to-bar movements. It multiplies this volatility factor by a QQE multiplier to create upper and lower bands that adapt to changes in RSI volatility.
• Trend Flips
When the smoothed RSI crosses above or below its previous band level (shortBand or longBand), the script interprets this as a shift in momentum and sets a trend state accordingly (long or short).
• Candle Coloring
Finally, the script colors each candle according to how far the smoothed RSI is from a neutral baseline of 50:
Candles turn green when the RSI is sufficiently above 50, suggesting bullish momentum.
Candles turn red when the RSI is sufficiently below 50, indicating bearish momentum.
Candles turn orange when they are near the 50 level, reflecting a more neutral or transitional phase.
Traders can use these colored candles to quickly see when the RSI’s momentum has moved into overbought/oversold zones—or is shifting between bullish and bearish conditions—without needing to consult a separate oscillator window. The adaptive nature of the band calculations can help in spotting significant shifts in market sentiment and volatility.
