Strong/Weak Candle FinderStrong/Weak Candle Finder (SWCF)
Overview:
The Strong/Weak Candle Finder (SWCF) is a versatile TradingView indicator designed to help traders identify statistically significant candles based on their size relative to recent historical price action. By analyzing a lookback period, the indicator dynamically calculates a threshold to classify candles as either "strong" (larger than the threshold) or "weak" (smaller than the threshold), providing visual cues directly on your chart.
This tool can be invaluable for traders looking to:
Spot potential momentum breakouts or high volatility (Strong Candles).
Identify periods of consolidation or low volatility (Weak Candles).
Gauge shifts in market sentiment based on candle body or range dynamics.
How It Works:
Candle Size Calculation: You choose how candle size is measured from four methods:
High - Low: The full range of the candle.
High - Close: The distance from the high to the close.
Open - Close: The size of the candle body.
Low - Open: The distance from the low to the open.
Historical Analysis: The indicator looks back over a user-defined LookBack Period to collect candle sizes.
Grouping & Precision: To smooth the distribution, candle sizes are grouped based on the Group Precision Size. This parameter divides the observed range of candle sizes into a set number of "bins," and individual candle sizes are rounded to the nearest representative value of these bins.
Percentile Threshold: A dynamic Outlier Pip Value is calculated based on the Outlier Percentile you set.
If Display Mode is "Strong Candles," this threshold represents the Nth percentile of the largest candle sizes (e.g., the 80th percentile if Outlier Percentile is 20%). Candles larger than this are marked as "Strong."
If Display Mode is "Weak Candles," this threshold represents the Nth percentile of the smallest candle sizes (e.g., the 20th percentile). Candles smaller than this are marked as "Weak."
Visual Markers: When a current candle meets the criteria (strong or weak based on your display mode), a configurable shape is plotted above (for strong) or below (for weak) the candle.
Resampling: The historical distribution and outlier threshold are recalculated every Resample Period (number of bars) to adapt to changing market conditions.
Key Features:
Dynamic Thresholds: Adapts to market volatility instead of using fixed pip values.
Customizable Candle Definition: Choose from four methods to define what "candle size" means to your strategy.
Flexible Display Modes: Focus on either identifying exceptionally strong candles or unusually weak ones.
Adjustable Sensitivity: Fine-tune the rarity of signals with Outlier Percentile and Group Precision Size.
Visual Chart Markers: Clear, customizable shapes (arrow, circle, etc.) for easy identification.
Periodic Recalculation: Ensures the indicator remains relevant as market dynamics evolve.
Parameters:
Display Mode:
Strong Candles: Highlights candles larger than the upper percentile threshold.
Weak Candles: Highlights candles smaller than the lower percentile threshold.
Resample Period (Candles): How often (in bars) to recalculate the historical distribution and outlier threshold.
LookBack Period (Candles): The number of past candles to analyze for the historical distribution. (Note: Plots will only begin after this many bars have loaded on the chart).
Group Precision Size: Number of groups to divide the candle size range into for rounding historical sizes. Higher values mean finer precision (less rounding).
Outlier Percentile (%): The percentile used to define the threshold for strong/weak candles.
Candle Size Method: (High-Low, High-Close, Open-Close, Low-Open).
Visuals:
Strong Shape: Choose the icon style for strong candles.
Weak Shape: Choose the icon style for weak candles.
Shape Size: Adjust the size of the plotted icons.
How to Use:
Strong Candles:
May indicate increased momentum, potential breakout confirmations, or high conviction moves.
Consider using in trending markets or as a filter for entry signals.
Weak Candles:
May signal market indecision, low volatility, consolidation phases, or potential exhaustion of a prior move.
Can be useful for identifying range-bound conditions or periods to be cautious.
Experimentation: Adjust the LookBack Period, Outlier Percentile, and Group Precision Size to match your trading style and the characteristics of the asset you are trading. What constitutes "strong" or "weak" can vary significantly.
Confirmation Tool: Use in conjunction with other indicators (e.g., moving averages, RSI, volume) for more robust trading decisions.
Important Notes:
The indicator requires sufficient historical data (LookBack Period) to initialize. You may not see plots on the chart immediately if there aren't enough bars loaded.
Like all indicators, the SWCF is not a standalone trading system and should not be used as the sole basis for financial decisions.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use appropriate risk management.
We hope you find the Strong/Weak Candle Finder a valuable addition to your trading toolkit!

All visual elements fully customizable through indicator settings
ICT Opening Range Projections (tristanlee85)ICT Opening Range Projections
This indicator visualizes key price levels based on ICT's (Inner Circle Trader) "Opening Range" concept. This 30-minute time interval establishes price levels that the algorithm will refer to throughout the session. The indicator displays these levels, including standard deviation projections, internal subdivisions (quadrants), and the opening price.
🟪 What It Does
The Opening Range is a crucial 30-minute window where market algorithms establish significant price levels. ICT theory suggests this range forms the basis for daily price movement.
This script helps you:
Mark the high, low, and opening price of each session.
Divide the range into quadrants (premium, discount, and midpoint/Consequent Encroachment).
Project potential price targets beyond the range using configurable standard deviation multiples .
🟪 How to Use It
This tool aids in time-based technical analysis rooted in ICT's Opening Range model, helping you observe price interaction with algorithmic levels.
Example uses include:
Identifying early structural boundaries.
Observing price behavior within premium/discount zones.
Visualizing initial displacement from the range to anticipate future moves.
Comparing price reactions at projected standard deviation levels.
Aligning price action with significant times like London or NY Open.
Note: This indicator provides a visual framework; it does not offer trade signals or interpretations.
🟪 Key Information
Time Zone: New York time (ET) is required on your chart.
Sessions: Supports multiple sessions, including NY midnight, NY AM, NY PM, and three custom timeframes.
Time Interval: Supports multi-timeframe up to 15 minutes. Best used on a 1-minute chart for accuracy.
🟪 Session Options
The Opening Range interval is configurable for up to 6 sessions:
Pre-defined ICT Sessions:
NY Midnight: 12:00 AM – 12:30 AM ET
NY AM: 9:30 AM – 10:00 AM ET
NY PM: 1:30 PM – 2:00 PM ET
Custom Sessions:
Three user-defined start/end time pairs.
This example shows a custom session from 03:30 - 04:00:
🟪 Understanding the Levels
The Opening Price is the open of the first 1-minute candle within the chosen session.
At session close, the Opening Range is calculated using its High and Low . An optional swing-based mode uses swing highs/lows for range boundaries.
The range is divided into quadrants by its midpoint ( Consequent Encroachment or CE):
Upper Quadrant: CE to high (premium).
Lower Quadrant: Low to CE (discount).
These subdivisions help visualize internal range dynamics, where price often reacts during algorithmic delivery.
🟪 Working with Ranges
By default, the range is determined by the highest high and lowest low of the 30-minute session:
A range can also be determined by the highest/lowest swing points:
Quadrants outline the premium and discount of a range that price will reference:
Small ranges still follow the same algorithmic logic, but may be deemed insignificant for one's trading. These can be filtered in the settings by specifying a minimum ticks limit. In this example, the range is 42 ticks (10.5 points) but the indicator is configured for 80 ticks (20 points). We can select which levels will plot if the range is below the limit. Here, only the 00:00 opening price is plotted:
You may opt to include the range high/low, quadrants, and projections as well. This will plot a red (configurable) range bracket to indicate it is below the limit while plotting the levels:
🟪 Price Projections
Projections extend beyond the Opening Range using standard deviations, framing the market beyond the initial session and identifying potential targets. You define the standard deviation multiples (e.g., 1.0, 1.5, 2.0).
Both positive and negative extensions are displayed, symmetrically projected from the range's high and low.
The Dynamic Levels option plots only the next projection level once price crosses the previous extreme. For example, only the 0.5 STDEV level plots until price reaches it, then the 1.0 level appears, and so on. This continues up to your defined maximum projections, or indefinitely if standard deviations are set to 0.
This example shows dynamic levels for a total of 6 sessions, only 1 of which meet a configured minimum limit of 50 ticks:
Small ranges followed by significant displacement are impacted the most with the number of levels plotted. You may hide projections when configuring the minimum ticks.
A fixed standard deviation will plot levels in both directions, regardless of the price range. Here, we plot up to 3.0 which hiding projections for small ranges:

BVB dominance bars
Hello everyone, this is my first indicator. these candles shows you who's in control. I like to think its some what close to heikin ashi candles as it shows you the Trend but doesn't average it out. also shows you when there is indecision. please read the instructions on how it works. its not a stand alone strategy. but adds value to your own strategy.
📖 How It Works
The BvB Dominance Bars indicator is a visual tool that colors candles based on market control—whether bulls or bears are in charge. It uses a custom metric comparing the price's relationship to a smoothed moving average (EMA), then normalizes that difference over time to express relative bullish or bearish pressure.
Here’s the breakdown:
Bulls vs Bears Logic:
A short-term EMA (default: 14-period) is used to establish a midpoint reference.
Bull Pressure is calculated as how far the high is above this EMA.
Bear Pressure is how far the low is below this EMA.
These are normalized over a lookback period (default: 120 bars) to produce percentile scores (0–100) for both bulls and bears.
Dominance & Color Coding:
The indicator compares normalized bull and bear scores.
Candles are color-coded based on:
Bright Lime: Strong Bull Dominance (with high confidence)
Soft Lime/Yellow: Moderate Bull Control
Bright Red: Strong Bear Dominance
Soft Red/Yellow: Moderate Bear Control
Gray: Neutral/Low conviction
Optional Live Label:
A small floating label shows who has control: “Bull Control,” “Bear Control,” or “Neutral.”
🧠 How to Use It (Example Strategy)
The BvB Dominance Bars indicator is not a standalone buy/sell signal but a market sentiment overlay. It’s most effective when combined with your own strategy, like price action or trend-following tools.
Here’s an example use case:
🧪 Reversal Confirmation Strategy
Objective: Catch high-probability reversals during key kill zones or supply/demand levels.
Setup:
Mark your key support/resistance zones using your standard method (e.g., FVGs, liquidity sweeps, or ICT PD arrays).
Wait for price to reach one of these zones.
Watch candle colors from the BvB Dominance Bars:
If you expect a bullish reversal, wait for a transition from red/gray candles to lime green or bright lime (bullish dominance taking over).
If you expect a bearish reversal, look for a change from green/gray to red or bright red.
Entry Filter:
Only enter if the dominant color holds for 2+ candles.
Avoid trades when candles are gray or yellow (indecision/neutral).
Exit Option:
Exit if dominance shifts against you (e.g., from lime to red), or use structure-based stops.
⚙️ Settings You Can Adjust:
BvB Period: Controls how fast EMA responds.
Bars Back: Determines how long the normalization looks back.
Thresholds: Influence how strong the dominance must be to change candle color.
✅ Best Used When:
You already have a bias and just want a confirmation of sentiment.
You're trading intraday and want a feel for shifting momentum without relying on noisy indicators.
You want a clean, color-coded overlay to help filter out fakeouts and indecision.
X OC StoryOverview
The "X OC Story" is a Pine Script indicator that visualizes the Open-Close range of a higher timeframe (HTF) candle on a lower timeframe chart. By plotting dynamic lines to represent the open and close prices of the previous HTF bar, this tool gives traders a clearer context of recent market sentiment and structural shifts. It includes color-coded visual fills to distinguish between bullish and bearish candles and offers the option to display only the most recent range.
Concept
1. Multi-Timeframe Analysis (MTF)
At its core, this indicator utilizes multi-timeframe analysis by requesting open, high, low, and close values from a user-defined HTF (input.timeframe('60')) and applying them to a lower timeframe chart. This allows traders to incorporate higher timeframe information without switching chart intervals.
2. Timeframe Change Detection
The indicator detects when a new HTF candle begins which lets the script know when to capture and visualize a new set of HTF open-close values.
3. Encapsulation with Custom Type (candles)
The script defines a custom type candles to encapsulate OHLC values of the previous HTF candle. This improves code readability and structure by keeping all relevant HTF data in a single object.
4. Dynamic Line Drawing
When a new HTF candle is detected, two horizontal lines are drawn for Open and Close. These are updated dynamically on each bar to extend across the entire HTF candle range on the lower timeframe chart.
5. Visual Highlighting
a shaded area is drawn between the open and close lines which help highlight market structure without overwhelming the chart.
6. Selective Persistence of Drawings
Users can enable deleteOld to show only the most recent HTF open-close range. When enabled, previously drawn lines are tracked in an array and deleted upon creation of a new range, keeping the chart clean and focused.
How a Trader Might Use This Tool
Contextual Decision-Making
This indicator helps traders see where the market is trading relative to the previous HTF candle:
Trading above the HTF close may suggest bullish continuation
Trading below the HTF open may indicate a bearish reversal or breakdown
Confluence Zones
The open and close lines of HTF candles often act as support/resistance levels. A trader might:
Watch for rejections or breakouts at these levels
Use them in confluence with intraday setups or trend indicators
Scalping or Intraday Strategy Support
Since this visual is drawn on a lower timeframe (like 5m or 15m), it’s particularly useful for scalpers or day traders who want to factor in HTF sentiment without leaving their active chart.
Cleaner Charting
With the optional setting to display only the most recent range (deleteOld), traders avoid clutter and focus on the current actionable zone.
Summary
“X OC Story” is a clean, visual, and effective multi-timeframe utility that helps traders:
Identify HTF open-close context
Highlight possible support/resistance zones
Analyze sentiment and structure visually
It’s an excellent addition to any discretionary trader’s toolkit for improved context awareness and informed entries or exits.
EMA 9/21 Cross + Volume FilterThis indicator plots fast (9-period) and slow (21-period) EMAs and highlights bullish or bearish crossovers only when volume exceeds its 20-period average, filtering out low-participation whipsaws. It places “UP”/“DN” triangles on qualifying crosses and includes built-in alertcondition() triggers plus a single alert() call, so one “Any alert() function call” alert delivers real-time push, e-mail, or webhook notifications. Adjustable inputs: EMA lengths, volume-SMA length, and a toggle to show/hide signal labels. Ideal for trend-following scalps or swing entries on any timeframe and ticker.
Consolidation BoxesConsolidation Boxes — Indicator
Overview :
This indicator automatically detects and highlights periods of market consolidation, drawing shaded boxes around tight price ranges where the market is temporarily indecisive. It’s designed to help traders easily identify when price is moving sideways — a key phase that often precedes a breakout.
Key Features :
-Automatic Consolidation Detection: Recognizes when a series of candles close within a defined range and marks the area as a consolidation zone.
-Customizable Parameters: Set how many candles must consolidate before a box is drawn.
-Breakout Alerts: Notifies you when price breaks out above or below a consolidation box — a potential signal for trade entries.
-Clean Chart Management: Optional setting to automatically remove old zones when new consolidations form.
-Dynamic Box Extension: As long as price stays within the box, the zone will continue to extend until a breakout occurs.
Inputs :
- Minimum Consolidation Candles : Define how many candles must fit within a range to confirm a consolidation zone.
- Terminate Old Zones : Automatically delete the previous zone when a new one is formed (optional).
How to use :
1. Add the Indicator: Apply it to any chart — works across all timeframes and markets (e.g., crypto, stocks, forex).
2. Adjust Parameters: Choose how many candles must consolidate to form a valid box. Enable or disable zone termination to fit your preference.
3. Watch the Boxes: The indicator draws a shaded box once it detects a valid consolidation zone. The box will continue to extend as long as price stays within the range.
4. Look for Breakouts: When price breaks above or below the box, a breakout is confirmed and an alert (if enabled) will trigger — great for breakout trading strategies.
5. Use in Strategy: Combine with volume, momentum indicators, or price action to validate breakouts and filter false signals.
Ideal For :
Traders who want to visually identify consolidation areas and trade breakout setups with minimal manual analysis. Especially useful for scalpers, day traders, and swing traders looking to anticipate volatility after quiet periods.
True Range eXpansion🕯️ TRX — True Range eXpansion
Clean Candle Bodies · Volatility Bands · Adaptive Range Envelope System
Not your grandfather’s candles. Not your brokerage’s bands.
----------------------------------------------------
TRX begins with a simple concept: visualize the true range of every candle, without the noise of flickering wicks.
From there, it grows into a fully adaptive price visualization framework.
What started as a candle-only visualizer evolved into a modular, user-controlled price engine.
From wickless candle clarity to dynamic volatility envelopes, TRX adapts to you.
There are plenty of band and channel indicators out there — Bollinger, Keltner, Donchian, Envelope, the whole crew.
But none of them are built on the true candle range, adaptive ATR shaping, and full user control like TRX.
This isn’t just another indicator — it’s a new framework.
Most bands and channels are based on close price and statistical deviation — useful, but limited.
TRX uses the full true range of each candle as its foundation, then applies customizable smoothing and directional ATR scaling to form a dynamic, volatility-reactive envelope.
The result? Bands that breathe with the market — not lag behind it.
----------------------------------------------------
🔧 Core Features:
🕯️ True Range Candles — Each candle is plotted from low to high, body-only, colored by open/close.
📈 Adjustable High/Low Moving Averages — Select your smoothing style: SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, or HMA.
🌬️ ATR-Based Expansion — Bands dynamically breathe based on market volatility.
🔀 Per-Band Multipliers — Fine-tune expansion individually for the upper and lower bands.
⚖️ Basis Line — Optional centerline between bands for structure tracking and equilibrium zones.
🎛️ Full Visual Control — Width, transparency, color, on/off toggles for each element.
----------------------------------------------------
🧠 Default Use Case:
With the included default settings, TRX behaves like an evolved Bollinger Band system — based on True Range candle structure, not just close price and standard deviation.
----------------------------------------------------
🔄 How to Zero Out the Bands (for Minimalist Use):
Want just candles? A clean MA? Single band? You got it.
➤ Use TRX like a clean moving average:
• Set ATR Multiplier to 0
• Set both Band ATR Adjustments to 0
• Leave the Basis Line ON or OFF — your call
➤ Show only candles (no bands at all):
• Turn off "Show High/Low MAs"
• Turn off Basis Line
➤ Single-line ceiling or floor tracking:
• Set one band’s Transparency to 100
• Use the remaining band as a price envelope or support/resistance guide
----------------------------------------------------
🧬 Notes:
TRX can be made:
• Spiky or silky (via smoothing & ATR)
• Wide or tight (via multipliers)
• Subtle or aggressive (via color/transparency)
• Clean as a compass or dirty as a chaos meter
Built by accident. Tuned with intention.
Released to the world as one of the most adaptable and expressive visual overlays ever made.

Live Inside Bar ColoringDescription
This script colors the current bar if it is inside the prior bar's high and low. Inside is defined as ≤ the high, and ≥ the low of the prior bar.
Utility
This gives a quick visual indication if the current bar is inside. This can indicate a choppier market. By definition, an inside bar is consolidating and not trending.
Function
Colors distinguish if the current price is above the opening price of the inside bar on a given timeframe. If you do not want to distinguish this, you can set both colors the same.
VWAP & Breakout Volume ConfirmHow the TradingView Indicator Works (Explained Simply)
VWAP Line (Orange)
It plots the Volume Weighted Average Price for the day.
Price above VWAP = bullish zone
Price below VWAP = bearish zone
Volume Spike Detection (Red Triangle)
It calculates the average volume over the last 20 candles.
If the current volume is 1.5× that average, it plots a red triangle under the candle.
Helps confirm if a move has real momentum or not.
Breakout Confirmation (Green Label ‘BO’)
Checks if price breaks above the last 10-bar high (for upside breakout) or below the last 10-bar low (for downside breakout).
If a breakout happens and the volume spike is present, it plots a green “BO” label above the candle.
This tells you the breakout is strong and likely to follow through.
Inside 4+ Candles Box (Entry + Target + SMA Stop Logic)🔍 What This Script Does
This indicator detects price compression areas using 4 or more consecutive inside candles, then draws a breakout box to visually highlight the range.
Once price closes above the box, a long entry marker is plotted, along with:
🎯 Target line at 1x box size above the breakout.
❌ Stop-loss at the box low or at a dynamic SMA-based level if the box is too large.
🧠 Why It’s Unique
This script combines inside bar compression, breakout logic, risk control, and visual clarity — all in one tool.
It also cancels the setup entirely if price closes below the box low before breakout, avoiding late or false entries.
⚙️ Customizable Settings
Minimum inside candles (default = 4)
SMA length (used as stop if box is large)
Box size % threshold to activate smart stop
Entry, Target, and Stop marker colors
📌 Notes
For long setups only (no short signals).
Use on any asset or timeframe (ideal on 4H/1D).

FVG (Nephew sam remake)Hello i am making my own FVG script inspired by Nephew Sam as his fvg code is not open source. My goal is to replicate his Script and then add in alerts and more functions. Thus, i spent few days trying to code. There is bugs such as lower time frame not showing higher time frame FVG.
This script automatically detects and visualizes Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) — imbalances between demand and supply — across multiple timeframes (15-minute, 1-hour, and 4-hour).
15m chart shows:
15m FVGs (green/red boxes)
1H FVGs (lime/maroon)
4H FVGs (faded green/red with borders) (Bugged For now i only see 1H appearing)
1H chart shows:
1H FVGs
4H FVGs
4H chart shows:
4H FVGs only
There is the function to auto close FVG when a future candle fully disrespected it.
You're welcome to:
🔧 Customize the appearance: adjust box colors, transparency, border style
🧪 Add alerts: e.g., when price enters or fills a gap
📅 Expand to Daily/Weekly: just copy the logic and plug in "D" or "W" as new layers
📈 Build confluence logic: combine this with order blocks, liquidity zones, or ICT concepts
🧠 Experiment with entry signals: e.g., candle confirmation on return to FVG
🚀 Improve performance: if you find a lighter way to track gaps, feel free to optimize!
GCM Centre Line Candle MarkerGCM Centre Line Candle Marker (GCM-CLCM) - Descriptive Notes
Indicator Overview:
The "GCM Centre Line Candle Marker" is a versatile TradingView overlay indicator designed to enhance chart analysis by drawing short horizontal lines at user-defined "centre" points of candles. These lines provide a quick visual reference to key price levels within each candle, such as midpoints, open, close, or typical prices. The indicator offers extensive customization for line appearance, positioning, and conditional display, including an option to highlight only bullish engulfing patterns.
Key Features:
1. Customizable Line Position:
o Users can choose from various methods to calculate the "centre" price for the line:
(High + Low) / 2 (Default)
(Open + Close) / 2
Close
Open
(Open + High + Low + Close) / 4 (HLCO/4)
(Open + High + Close) / 3 (Typical Price HLC/3 variation)
(Open + Close + Low) / 3 (Typical Price OCL/3 variation)
2. Line Appearance Customization:
o Visibility: Toggle lines on/off.
o Style: Solid, dotted, or dashed lines.
o Width: Adjustable line thickness (1 to 5).
o Length: Defines how many candles forward the line extends (1 to 10).
o Color: Lines are colored based on candle type (bullish/bearish), with user-selectable base colors.
o Dynamic Opacity: Line opacity is dynamically adjusted based on the candle's size relative to recent candles. Larger candles produce more opaque lines (up to the user-defined maximum opacity), while smaller candles result in more transparent lines. This helps significant candles stand out.
3. Price Labels:
o Show Labels: Option to display price labels at the end of each center line.
o Label Background Color: Customizable.
o Dynamic Text Color: Label text color can change based on the movement of the center price:
Green: Current center price is higher than the previous.
Red: Current center price is lower than the previous.
Gray: No change or first label.
o Static Text Color: Alternatively, a fixed color can be used for all labels.
4. Conditional Drawing - Bullish Engulfing Filter:
o Users can enable an option to Only Show Bullish Engulfing Candles. When active, center lines will only be drawn for candles that meet bullish engulfing criteria (current bull candle's body engulfs the previous bear candle's body).
5. Performance Management:
o Max Lines to Show: Limits the number of historical lines displayed on the chart to maintain clarity and performance. Older lines are automatically removed as new ones are drawn.
6. Alert Condition:
o Includes a built-in alert: Big Bullish Candle. This alert triggers when a bullish candle's range (high - low) is greater than the 20-period simple moving average (SMA) of candle ranges.
How It Works:
• For each new candle, the script calculates the "center" price based on the user's Line Position selection.
• If showLines is enabled and (if applicable) the bullish engulfing condition is met, a new line is drawn from the current candle's bar_index at the calculated _center price, extending lineLength candles forward.
• The line's color is determined by whether the candle is bullish (close > open) or bearish (close < open).
• Opacity is calculated dynamically: scaledOpacity = int((100 - maxUserOpacity) * (1 - dynamicFactor) + maxUserOpacity), where dynamicFactor is candleSize / maxSize (current candle size relative to the max size in the last 20 candles). This means maxUserOpacity is the least transparent the line will be (for the largest candles), and smaller candles will have lines approaching full transparency.
• Optional price labels are added at the end of these lines.
• The script manages an array of drawn lines, removing the oldest ones if the maxLines limit is exceeded.
Potential Use Cases:
• Visualizing Intra-Candle Levels: Quickly see midpoints or other key price points without manual drawing.

multi-tf standard devs [keypoems]Multi-Timeframe Standard Deviations Levels
A visual map of “how far is too far” across any three higher time-frames.
1. What it does
This script plots dynamic price “rails” built from standard deviation (StDev)—the same math that underpins the bell curve—on up to three higher-time-frames (HTFs) at once.
• It measures the volatility of intraday open-to-close increments, reaching back as far as 5000 bars (≈ 20 years on daily data).
• Each HTF can be extended to the next session or truncated at session close for tidy dashboards.
• Lines can be mirrored so you see symmetric positive/negative bands, and optional background fills shade the “probability cone.”
Because ≈ 68 % of moves live inside ±1 StDev, ≈ 95 % inside ±2, and ≈ 99.7 % inside ±3, the plot instantly shows when price is statistically stretched or compressed.
3. Key settings
Higher Time-Frame #1-3 Turn each HTF on/off, pick the interval (anything from 1 min to 1 year), and decide whether lines should extend into the next period.
Show levels for last X days Keep your chart clean by limiting how many historical sessions are displayed (1-50).
Based on last X periods Length of the StDev sample. Long look-backs (e.g. 5 000) iron-out day-to-day noise; short look-backs make the bands flex with recent volatility.
Fib Settings Toggle each multiple, line thickness/style/colour, label size, whether to print the numeric level, the live price, the HTF label, and whether to tint the background (choose your own opacity).
4. Under-the-hood notes
StDev is calculated on (close – open) / open rather than absolute prices, making the band width scale-agnostic.
Watch for tests of ±1:
Momentum traders ride the breakout with a target at the next band.
Mean-reversion traders wait for the first stall candle and trade back to zero line or VWAP.
Bottom line: Multi-Timeframe Standard-Deviations turns raw volatility math into an intuitive “price terrain map,” helping you instantly judge whether a move is ordinary, stretched, or extreme—across the time-frames that matter to you.

15-Min ORB Strategy with TP/SL
🔧 How It Works
Opening Range Defined
At market open, it tracks the first 15-minute candle.
The high and low of that candle form the Opening Range.
Breakout Detection
A Buy Signal is triggered when price closes above the ORB high (with confirmation).
A Sell Signal is triggered when price closes below the ORB low.
Trade Management
On a confirmed breakout, the script:
Records the entry price.
Calculates Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) using user-defined multipliers of the ORB range.
Positions are exited when either TP or SL is hit.
State Tracking
It tracks whether you're in a trade and whether it’s a long or short.
Once exited, the trade resets and waits for a new signal the next session.
📌 Visual Elements
Green line: ORB High
Red line: ORB Low
Blue line: Active Take Profit (if in trade)
Orange line: Active Stop Loss (if in trade)
Buy/Sell Labels: Signal markers below/above candles for clear entry visibility
⚙️ Customizable Inputs
Take Profit Multiplier (default 1.5× ORB range)
Stop Loss Multiplier (default 1.0× ORB range)
Session Start/End time for ORB definition
✅ Ideal For:
Traders who want clean, rule-based signals with no indicators
Quick intraday setups using price action only
Adaptation to almost any liquid market (just adjust session times)
Sniper SweepsPurpose
Detect when price sweeps above recent highs (buy-side liquidity) or below recent lows (sell-side liquidity), but closes back inside the range. This is often interpreted as a stop-hunt or liquidity grab by institutional traders.
Core Concepts
Liquidity Sweep: When price briefly breaks a recent swing high/low (potentially triggering stop losses), but then closes back within the previous range.
Buy-side Sweep: Price breaks a previous high, but closes below it.
Sell-side Sweep: Price breaks a previous low, but closes above it.
Summary
This indicator is useful for:
Identifying potential stop-hunts or liquidity grabs.
Recognizing SMC trade setups around swept highs/lows.
Getting alerted when significant liquidity levels are manipulated.
Consecutive Candle CounterConsecutive Condition Counter is a versatile indicator that tracks and visualizes consecutive candles based on user-defined market conditions. It helps traders quickly identify streaks of bullish or bearish signals by counting how many bars in a row satisfy the selected condition.
🔍 Features:
Three selectable conditions via a dropdown:
Up & Down Days: Counts consecutive up or down candles. Each up candle adds +1, each down candle subtracts -1. The counter resets when direction changes.
RSI Signal: Counts how many consecutive bars RSI remains above 70 (+1 per bar) or below 30 (-1 per bar). Resets when RSI moves back to the neutral zone.
SMA Positioning: Counts consecutive bars where price stays above (+1) or below (-1) a Simple Moving Average (SMA). SMA period is user-defined.
📊 Visualization:
Positive streaks are shown in green, negative streaks in red, and neutral values in gray.
Displayed as a histogram below the chart for quick pattern recognition.
⚙️ Inputs:
Choose condition logic from the dropdown.
Configure the RSI period and SMA period as needed.
This tool can be helpful for identifying momentum streaks, overbought/oversold trends, or trend-following behavior in a visually intuitive way.
Rollover Candles 23:00-00:00 UTC+1This indicator highlights the Forex Market Rollover candles during which the spreads get very high and some 'fake price action' occurs. By marking them orange you always know you are dealing with a rollover candle and these wicks/candles usually get taken out later on because there are no orders in these candles.
Optimal settings: The rollover takes only 1 hour, so put the visibility of the indicator on the 1 hour time frame and below (or just the 1h).
OHLC 0.5 @SplintsThis indicator provides a dynamic visualization of OHLC levels, allowing traders to analyze price action across multiple candles with enhanced clarity. It features customizable options for timeframe selection, candle count, and mid-level calculations (High/Low 50% and Open/Close 50%). The script utilizes gradient-based coloring for a clear distinction between levels and supports dynamic extension for better visibility.
Key Features:
Displays Open, High, Low, and Close levels with adjustable extension lengths
Supports mid-level calculations for enhanced trade decision-making
Gradient coloring for improved visual clarity across multiple candles
Configurable labels for quick reference to key price points
Efficient object management using arrays for optimized performance
Perfect for traders seeking structured insights into candle dynamics and session-based analysis.
