Volume Aggression Monitor📌 Volume Aggression Monitor — Overview
This indicator helps identify buying and selling pressure (aggression) in real-time by analyzing how market participants are executing trades. It is composed of three main components:
🔍 What Does It Show?
🧭 1. The Thermometer (Above Candles)
🟢 Green Arrow (▲) → Buy Aggression: Buyers are lifting the ask.
🔴 Red Arrow (▼) → Sell Aggression: Sellers are hitting the bid.
⚪ Gray Square (■) → Neutral: No significant price movement or aggression.
💡 Neutral in this context means:
The price barely moved during the candle (open-close % change < direction_threshold, default 0.05%).
No clear buyer or seller dominance. It often appears during low volatility, equilibrium, or market indecision periods. This prevents noise and false directional readings due to random micro-movements.
📊 2. Percentage Panel
A table displaying recent trades or candle data (from a lower timeframe). Colored arrows indicate the direction of aggression (buy/sell). Shows volume, delta, and aggression %.
✅ Use it to:
Track clusters of buy/sell aggression. Spot momentum builds.
⏱️ 3. Cumulative Times & Sales Bar
A horizontal progress bar representing cumulative aggression.
Positive = Buy Aggression dominates.
Negative = Sell Aggression dominates.
📉 Even in sideways price movement, this bar shows who is winning the fight under the surface.
---
🧠 How to Use It:
🔹 Confirm Trades
Use the thermometer and aggression signals to confirm your strategy entries (e.g., breakouts, pullbacks, support/resistance).
🔹 Detect Dominance
Observe who is in control: buyers or sellers? Are they pressing or hesitating?
🔹 Filter Market Noise
The neutral state avoids misinterpreting small, meaningless movements as strong signals.

Vacuum Candles [XrayAlgo]The Vacuum Candles indicator helps traders identify inefficient price movements—where the price moves significantly but lacks sufficient volume to support it. These inefficiencies may signal weak trends, potential reversals, or false breakouts/breakdowns.
Inefficient candles are visually marked with a darker / black body to indicate when the price movement is disproportionate to the volume.
1. Spotting Potential Reversals
When the indicator marks an inefficient candle, it signals that the price movement may be unsustainable.
In an uptrend: A inefficient bullish candle suggests that the uptrend is losing momentum, potentially leading to a downward reversal.
In a downtrend: A inefficient bearish candle signals that the downtrend may be weakening, with a potential bullish reversal.
2. Identifying Breakout and Breakdown Failures
This indicator is useful for recognizing false breakouts or false breakdowns.
If price breaks resistance but the candle is inefficient, the breakout may be weak and could fail quickly.
If price breaks support with an inefficient bearish candle, the breakdown could be a false signal, with price reverting back above support.
3. Recognizing Weak Trends
Inefficient candles help you spot when a trend is losing strength and could soon reverse or consolidate.
In an uptrend: A series of dark body bullish candles suggests that the uptrend may be weakening, signaling a potential correction or trend reversal.
In a downtrend: A series of dark body bearish candles suggests that the selling pressure is weakening, indicating a potential bullish reversal.
4. Fine-Tuning Entries and Exits
Inefficient candles offer an opportunity to fine-tune your entries and exits based on weak price moves.
Entering a trade: An inefficient candle near key support or resistance can indicate a reversal, making it a good entry point for a counter-trend position.
Exiting a trade: If you're already in a trend, and an inefficient candle appears, it suggests the trend is losing strength, indicating it may be a good time to exit before a potential reversal.
5. Fine-Tuning with Inputs
The Vacuum Candles indicator includes two key inputs:
Length: The number of candles used to calculate the average price movement and volume. A longer length (e.g., 20-30) smooths out the inefficiencies, while a shorter length (e.g., 10-15) makes the indicator more sensitive to recent price moves.
Multiplier: Controls the threshold for what is considered an inefficient candle:
A higher Multiplier (e.g., 1.5–3) filters out smaller inefficiencies and focuses on large discrepancies.
A lower Multiplier (e.g., 0.1–0.9) captures even smaller inefficiencies in highly efficient markets.

HL2 Moving Average with BandsThis indicator is designed to assist traders in identifying potential trade entries and exits for S&P 500 (ES) and Nasdaq-100 (NQ) futures. It calculates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) based on the HL2 value (average of high and low prices) of the current candle over a user-defined lookback period (default: 200 periods). The indicator plots this SMA as a blue line, providing a smoothed reference for price trends.
Additionally, it includes upper and lower bands calculated as a percentage (default: 0.5%) above and below the SMA, plotted as green and red lines, respectively. These bands act as dynamic thresholds to identify overbought or oversold conditions. The indicator generates trade signals based on price action relative to these bands:
Long Entry: A green upward triangle is plotted below the candle when the close crosses above the upper band, signaling a potential buy.
Close Long: A red square is plotted above the candle when the close crosses back below the upper band, indicating an exit for the long position.
Short Entry: A red downward triangle is plotted above the candle when the close crosses below the lower band, signaling a potential sell.
Close Short: A green square is plotted below the candle when the close crosses back above the lower band, indicating an exit for the short position.
The script is customizable, allowing users to adjust the SMA length and band percentage to suit their trading style or market conditions. It is plotted as an overlay on the price chart for easy integration with other technical analysis tools.
Recommended Time Frame and Settings for Trading S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 Futures
Based on research and market dynamics for S&P 500 (ES) and Nasdaq-100 (NQ) futures, the 5-minute chart is recommended as the optimal time frame for day trading with this indicator. This time frame strikes a balance between capturing intraday trends and filtering out excessive noise, which is critical for futures trading due to their high volatility and leverage. The 5-minute chart aligns well with periods of high liquidity and volatility, such as the U.S. market open (9:30 AM–11:00 AM EST) and the afternoon session (2:00 PM–4:00 PM EST), when institutional traders are most active.
Why 5-minute? It allows traders to react to short-term price movements while avoiding the rapid fluctuations of 1-minute charts, which can be prone to false signals in choppy markets. It also provides enough data points to make the SMA and bands meaningful without the lag associated with longer time frames like 15-minute or hourly charts.
Recommended Settings
SMA Length: Set to 200 periods. This longer lookback period smooths the HL2 data, reducing noise and providing a reliable trend reference for the 5-minute chart. A 200-period SMA helps identify significant trend shifts without being overly sensitive to minor price fluctuations.
Band Percentage: 0.5% is more suitable for the volatility of ES and NQ futures on a 5-minute chart, as it generates fewer but higher-probability signals. Wider bands (e.g., 1%) may miss short-term opportunities, while narrower bands (e.g., 0.1%) may produce excessive false signals.
Trading Session Recommendations
Futures markets for ES and NQ are open nearly 24 hours (Sunday 6:00 PM EST to Friday 5:00 PM EST, with a daily break from 4:00 PM–5:00 PM EST), but not all hours are equally optimal due to varying liquidity and volatility. The best times to trade with this indicator are:
U.S. Market Open (9:30 AM–11:00 AM EST): This period is characterized by high volume and volatility, driven by the opening of U.S. equity markets and economic data releases (e.g., 8:30 AM EST reports like CPI or GDP). The indicator’s signals are more reliable during this window due to strong order flow and price momentum.
Afternoon Session (2:00 PM–4:00 PM EST): After the lunchtime lull, volume picks up as institutional traders return, and news or FOMC announcements often drive price action. The indicator can capture breakout moves as prices test the upper or lower bands.
Pre-Market (7:30 AM–9:30 AM EST): For traders comfortable with lower liquidity, this period can offer opportunities, especially around 8:30 AM EST economic releases. However, use tighter risk management due to wider spreads and potential volatility spikes.
Additional Tips
Avoid Low-Volume Periods: Steer clear of trading during low-liquidity hours, such as the overnight session (11:00 PM–3:00 AM EST), when spreads widen and price movements can be erratic, leading to false signals from the indicator.
Combine with Other Tools: Enhance the indicator’s effectiveness by pairing it with support/resistance levels, Fibonacci retracements, or volume analysis to confirm signals. For example, a long entry signal above the upper band is stronger if it coincides with a breakout above a key resistance level.
Risk Management: Given the leverage in futures (e.g., Micro E-mini contracts require ~$1,200 margin for ES), use tight stop-losses (e.g., below the lower band for longs or above the upper band for shorts) to manage risk. Aim for a risk-reward ratio of at least 1:2.
Test Settings: Backtest the indicator on a demo account to optimize the SMA length and band percentage for your specific trading style and risk tolerance. Micro E-mini contracts (MES for S&P 500, MNQ for Nasdaq-100) are ideal for testing due to their lower capital requirements.
Why These Settings and Time Frame?
The 5-minute chart with a 200-period SMA and 0.5% bands is tailored for the volatility and liquidity of ES and NQ futures during peak trading hours. The longer SMA period ensures the indicator captures meaningful trends, while the 0.5% bands are tight enough to signal actionable breakouts but wide enough to avoid excessive whipsaws. Trading during high-volume sessions maximizes the likelihood of valid signals, as institutional participation drives clearer price action.
By focusing on these settings and time frames, traders can leverage the indicator to capitalize on the dynamic price movements of S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 futures while managing the inherent risks of these markets.
Engulfing Candle with Streaks and CountIdentifies Engulfing Candles + The Number of Consecutive Signals + Identifies 3rd/4th Consecutive Signals + Keeps Count of Most Recent Number of Signals as Decided by User.
- Have coded in the latest version 6
- This script allows the tracking of engulfing candles over a user defined amount of time (candles).
- The script will signal every engulfing candle and its consecutive corresponding number across the entire chart.
- The Engulfing Count box in the bottom right counts how many bullish and bearish engulfing candles have occurred over the number decided by the user.
- The Engulfing Signal that prints is triggered when an opposite next candle prints and the body is over 100% larger than the previous candle. It does not need to "fully engulf" the previous candle, the coding has an allowance for an "equal to and greater/smaller than" the previous close price. This allows for signals were the open of the engulfing candle can be equal to the close of the previous opposite, however the engulfing still must reach an over 100% sizing of the previous to print a signal.
- Where a piercing candle occurs and the open price is within the body of the previous candle, this will void the equation and no matter how big the candle is, it will not trigger an engulfing signal as I was only looking for true engulfing candles.
- The script keeps count of the same consecutive signals no matter the timeframe.
- It will print the consecutive number above or below the signal (depending if bullish or bearish).
- To assist with trend identification the 3rd consecutive signal will print blue, and the 4th consecutive signal will print yellow (or I prefer to use the term "Gold"). This can help filter out the noise on lower timeframes to assist to see where the momentum is going, or if there are signals going against the trend to try trick traders.
- Back testing I found the 3rd and 4th signals are uncommon on higher timeframes and tend to act as fake-outs before the trend reverses.
- Overall a good tool to add to your trend analysis, either for additional confluence or to assist with reversal identification.
- Colors are set as default, but everything can be changed by the user as I didn't want to limit its possibilities.
*** Please note that this script does not take into any consideration candle wicks. Although it can be used with Heikin Ashi it is somewhat unreliable. This indicator is designed to be used with standard candles only ***

US30 Smart Money 5M/4H Strategy🧠 How It Works
✅ 1. 4H Trend Bias Detection
Uses the 4-hour chart (internally) to determine if the market is in an uptrend or downtrend.
Background turns green for bullish trend, red for bearish trend.
This helps filter trades — only take longs during uptrend, shorts during downtrend.
✅ 2. Liquidity Sweeps (Stop Hunts) on 5M
Highlights candles that break previous highs/lows and then reverse (typical of institutional stop raids).
Draws a shaded red box above sweep-high candles and green box under sweep-lows.
These indicate key reversal zones.
✅ 3. Order Block Zones
Detects bullish/bearish engulfing patterns after liquidity sweeps.
Draws a supply or demand zone box extending forward.
These zones show where institutions likely placed large orders.
✅ 4. FVG Midpoint from 30-Min Chart
Detects Fair Value Gaps (imbalances) on the 30-minute chart.
Plots a line at the midpoint of the gap (EQ level), which is often revisited for entries or rejections.
✅ 5. Buy/Sell Signals (Non-Repainting)
Buy = 4H uptrend + 5M liquidity sweep low + bullish engulfing candle.
Sell = 4H downtrend + 5M liquidity sweep high + bearish engulfing.
Prints green “BUY” or red “SELL” label on the chart — these do not repaint.
📈 How to Use It
Wait for trend bias — only take trades in the direction of the 4H trend.
Watch for liquidity sweep boxes — these hint a stop hunt just occurred.
Look for a signal label (BUY/SELL) — confirms entry criteria.
Use FVG EQ lines & Order Block zones as confluence or targets.
Take trades after NY open (9:30 AM EST) for best momentum.

Largest Candles with Price DifferenceThis script shows the largest move on a candle on a particular time frame. So if you are looking at the 10-minute chart, it will tell you what the largest 10-minute candle has been in the past.
Compare Strength with SLOPE Description
This indicator compares the relative strength between the current asset and a benchmark (e.g., BTC vs. ETH or AAPL vs. SPY) using a linear regression slope of their ratio over time.
The ratio is calculated as: close / benchmark
A linear regression slope is computed over a user-defined window
The slope represents trend strength: if it’s rising, the current asset is outperforming the benchmark
Plots
Gray Line: The raw ratio between the asset and benchmark
Orange Line: The slope of the ratio (shows momentum)
Background Color :
Green: The asset is significantly stronger than the benchmark
Red: The asset is significantly weaker than the benchmark
No color: No clear trend
Settings
Slope Window Length: Number of candles used in the regression (default = 10)
Slope Threshold: Sensitivity of trend detection. Smaller values detect weaker trends.
Example Use Cases
Style Rotation Strategy: Use the slope to determine whether "Growth" or "Value" style is leading.
Pair Trading / Relative Performance: Track which asset is leading in a pair (e.g., BTC vs ETH).
Factor Timing: Serve as a timing model to allocate between different sectors or factors.

ICT SMC Liquidity Grabs and OBsICT SMC Liquidity Grabs + Order Blocks + Fibonacci OTE Levels
A High-Probability Entry Engine for Smart Money Concept Traders
This script combines three powerful Smart Money Concepts (SMC) into a single tool: Liquidity Grabs, Order Block Zones, and Fibonacci OTE Levels, allowing traders to identify institutional entry models with clean, rule-based visual signals.
It’s designed to simplify SMC trading by highlighting confluence zones where price is likely to reverse or continue — with clear visual zones, entry arrows, and take profit projections.
🔍 What This Script Does:
Detects Liquidity Grabs
Identifies when price sweeps above/below the highest high or lowest low within a user-defined lookback period and closes back inside.
Plots orange labels on the chart to signal potential liquidity events (LG-H / LG-L).
Plots Order Blocks After Liquidity Grabs
After a liquidity grab, the script looks for displacement candles (strong bullish or bearish moves) and draws highlighted OB zones extending several bars to the right.
These zones represent potential institutional footprints for price reversals.
Draws Fibonacci OTE Levels (Optimal Trade Entry)
Uses recent swing high and low pivots to automatically calculate OTE zones (default: 62% and 75% retracement levels).
Draws these retracement zones for both bullish and bearish setups.
Marks Valid OTE Entry Zones
Buy/Sell zones only trigger when:
A liquidity grab occurs,
Price enters the OTE zone,
And a strong confirming candle is present.
Plots green/red arrows for valid buy/sell OTE entries.
Auto-Draws Take Profit Zones
TP1 = Previous swing high/low
TP2 = Risk-based R-multiplied extension (e.g., 1.5R — customizable)
Alerts
Triggers alerts when valid buy or sell OTE setups are detected.
⚙️ Customization Features:
Toggle each feature: Liquidity Grabs, Order Blocks, Fibonacci OTE levels
Set Fibonacci retracement percentages (e.g., 0.62 / 0.75)
Adjust lookback window for liquidity detection
Customize the take-profit multiplier (R-based)
Full control over visuals: colors, labels, and lines
💡 How to Use:
Use this script to scan for high-confluence trade setups based on Smart Money principles.
Combine with session timing (e.g., New York open), major swing structure, or Kill Zone windows for maximum edge.
Look for arrows inside OB zones or OTE levels following liquidity sweeps for cleaner entries.
🔗 Works Best With:
✅ First FVG — Opening Range Fair Value Gap Detector: Identify early inefficiencies to set the narrative for the day.

ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2📜 ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2 — Advanced Liquidity Reversal System
Overview:
The ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2 is a next-generation liquidity reversal indicator built on the principles of smart money concepts (SMC) and the classic ICT Turtle Soup setup. It is designed to detect false breakouts (liquidity grabs) at key swing points, enhanced by proprietary logic that filters out low-quality signals using a combination of trend context, kill zone timing, candle wick behavior, and multi-timeframe imbalance zones.
This tool is ideal for intraday traders seeking high-probability entry signals near liquidity pools and imbalance zones — where smart money makes its move.
🔍 What This Script Does
🧠 Liquidity Grab Detection (Turtle Soup Core Logic)
The script scans for recent swing highs/lows using a user-defined lookback.
A signal is generated when price breaks above/below a previous swing level but closes back inside — indicating a liquidity run and likely reversal.
A special Wick Trap Mode enhances this logic by detecting long-wick fakeouts — where the wick grabs stops but the candle body closes opposite the breakout direction.
📉 Trend Filter with ATR Buffer
Optional trend filter uses a simple moving average (SMA) to gauge market direction.
Instead of hard filtering, it applies an ATR-based buffer to allow for entries near the trend line, reducing signal suppression from micro-fluctuations.
🕰️ Kill Zone Session Filtering
Only show signals during institutional trading hours:
London Session
New York AM
Or any custom user-defined session
Helps traders avoid low-volume hours and focus on where stop hunts and price expansions typically occur.
🧱 Multi-Timeframe FVG Confluence (Optional)
Signal validation is strengthened by checking if price is within a higher timeframe Fair Value Gap — commonly used to identify imbalances or inefficiencies.
Filters out setups that lack underlying displacement or order flow justification.
🎨 Visual Feedback
Plots 🔺 bullish and 🔻 bearish markers at signal candles.
Optionally displays:
Swing High/Low Labels (SH / SL)
Reversal distance labels
Background color shading on valid signals
Includes built-in alerts for automated trade notification.
🔑 Unique Benefits
Wick Trap Detection: A proprietary approach to detecting stop hunts via wick behavior, not just candle closes.
ATR-based trend filtering: Avoids unnecessary filtering while still maintaining directional bias.
All-in-one system: No need to stack multiple indicators — swing detection, reversal logic, session filtering, and imbalance confirmation are all integrated.
💡 How to Use
Enable Wick Trap Mode to detect stealthy liquidity grabs with strong wicks.
Use Kill Zone filters to trade only when institutions are active.
Optionally enable FVG confluence to improve confidence in reversal zones.
Watch for Bullish signals near SL levels and Bearish signals near SH levels.
Combine with your own execution strategy or other SMC tools for optimal results.

GIGANEVA V6.61 PublicThis enhanced Fibonacci script for TradingView is a powerful, all-in-one tool that calculates Fibonacci Levels, Fans, Time Pivots, and Golden Pivots on both logarithmic and linear scales. Its ability to compute time pivots via fan intersections and Range interactions, combined with user-friendly features like Bool Fib Right, sets it apart. The script maximizes TradingView’s plotting capabilities, making it a unique and versatile tool for technical analysis across various markets.
1. Overview of the Script
The script appears to be a custom technical analysis tool built for TradingView, improving upon an existing script from TradingView’s Community Scripts. It calculates and plots:
Fibonacci Levels: Standard retracement levels (e.g., 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, etc.) based on a user-defined price range.
Fibonacci Fans: Trendlines drawn from a high or low point, radiating at Fibonacci ratios to project potential support/resistance zones.
Time Pivots: Points in time where significant price action is expected, determined by the intersection of Fibonacci Fans or their interaction with key price levels.
Golden Pivots: Specific time pivots calculated when the 0.5 Fibonacci Fan (on a logarithmic or linear scale) intersects with its counterpart.
The script supports both logarithmic and linear price scales, ensuring versatility across different charting preferences. It also includes a feature to extend Fibonacci Fans to the right, regardless of whether the user selects the top or bottom of the range first.
2. Key Components Explained
a) Fibonacci Levels and Fans from Top and Bottom of the "Range"
Fibonacci Levels: These are horizontal lines plotted at standard Fibonacci retracement ratios (e.g., 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, etc.) based on a user-defined price range (the "Range"). The Range is typically the distance between a significant high (top) and low (bottom) on the chart.
Example: If the high is $100 and the low is $50, the 0.618 retracement level would be at $80.90 ($50 + 0.618 × $50).
Fibonacci Fans: These are diagonal lines drawn from either the top or bottom of the Range, radiating at Fibonacci ratios (e.g., 0.382, 0.5, 0.618). They project potential dynamic support or resistance zones as price evolves over time.
From Top: Fans drawn downward from the high of the Range.
From Bottom: Fans drawn upward from the low of the Range.
Log and Linear Scale:
Logarithmic Scale: Adjusts price intervals to account for percentage changes, which is useful for assets with large price ranges (e.g., cryptocurrencies or stocks with exponential growth). Fibonacci calculations on a log scale ensure ratios are proportional to percentage moves.
Linear Scale: Uses absolute price differences, suitable for assets with smaller, more stable price ranges.
The script’s ability to plot on both scales makes it adaptable to different markets and user preferences.
b) Time Pivots
Time pivots are points in time where significant price action (e.g., reversals, breakouts) is anticipated. The script calculates these in two ways:
Fans Crossing Each Other:
When two Fibonacci Fans (e.g., one from the top and one from the bottom) intersect, their crossing point represents a potential time pivot. This is because the intersection indicates a convergence of dynamic support/resistance zones, increasing the likelihood of a price reaction.
Example: A 0.618 fan from the top crosses a 0.382 fan from the bottom at a specific bar on the chart, marking that bar as a time pivot.
Fans Crossing Top and Bottom of the Range:
A fan line (e.g., 0.5 fan from the bottom) may intersect the top or bottom price level of the Range at a specific time. This intersection highlights a moment where the fan’s projected support/resistance aligns with a key price level, signaling a potential pivot.
Example: The 0.618 fan from the bottom reaches the top of the Range ($100) at bar 50, marking bar 50 as a time pivot.
c) Golden Pivots
Definition: Golden pivots are a special type of time pivot calculated when the 0.5 Fibonacci Fan on one scale (logarithmic or linear) intersects with the 0.5 fan on the opposite scale (or vice versa).
Significance: The 0.5 level is the midpoint of the Fibonacci sequence and often acts as a critical balance point in price action. When fans at this level cross, it suggests a high-probability moment for a price reversal or significant move.
Example: If the 0.5 fan on a logarithmic scale (drawn from the bottom) crosses the 0.5 fan on a linear scale (drawn from the top) at bar 100, this intersection is labeled a "Golden Pivot" due to its confluence of key Fibonacci levels.
d) Bool Fib Right
This is a user-configurable setting (a boolean input in the script) that extends Fibonacci Fans to the right side of the chart.
Functionality: When enabled, the fans project forward in time, regardless of whether the user selected the top or bottom of the Range first. This ensures consistency in visualization, as the direction of the Range selection (top-to-bottom or bottom-to-top) does not affect the fan’s extension.
Use Case: Traders can use this to project future support/resistance zones without worrying about how they defined the Range, improving usability.
3. Why Is This Code Unique?
Original calculation of Log levels were taken from zekicanozkanli code. Thank you for giving me great Foundation, later modified and applied to Fib fans. The script’s uniqueness stems from its comprehensive integration of Fibonacci-based tools and its optimization for TradingView’s plotting capabilities. Here’s a detailed breakdown:
All-in-One Fibonacci Tool:
Most Fibonacci scripts on TradingView focus on either retracement levels, extensions, or fans.
This script combines:
Fibonacci Levels: Static horizontal lines for retracement and extension.
Fibonacci Fans: Dynamic trendlines for projecting support/resistance.
Time Pivots: Temporal analysis based on fan intersections and Range interactions.
Golden Pivots: Specialized pivots based on 0.5 fan confluences.
By integrating these functions, the script provides a holistic Fibonacci analysis tool, reducing the need for multiple scripts.
Log and Linear Scale Support:
Many Fibonacci tools are designed for linear scales only, which can distort projections for assets with exponential price movements. By supporting both logarithmic and linear scales, the script caters to a wider range of markets (e.g., stocks, forex, crypto) and user preferences.
Time Pivot Calculations:
Calculating time pivots based on fan intersections and Range interactions is a novel feature. Most TradingView scripts focus on price-based Fibonacci levels, not temporal analysis. This adds a predictive element, helping traders anticipate when significant price action might occur.
Golden Pivot Innovation:
The concept of "Golden Pivots" (0.5 fan intersections across scales) is a unique addition. It leverages the symmetry of the 0.5 level and the differences between log and linear scales to identify high-probability pivot points.
Maximized Plot Capabilities:
TradingView imposes limits on the number of plots (lines, labels, etc.) a script can render. This script is coded to fully utilize these limits, ensuring that all Fibonacci levels, fans, pivots, and labels are plotted without exceeding TradingView’s constraints.
This optimization likely involves efficient use of arrays, loops, and conditional plotting to manage resources while delivering a rich visual output.
User-Friendly Features:
The Bool Fib Right option simplifies fan projection, making the tool intuitive even for users who may not consistently select the Range in the same order.
The script’s flexibility in handling top/bottom Range selection enhances usability.
4. Potential Use Cases
Trend Analysis: Traders can use Fibonacci Fans to identify dynamic support/resistance zones in trending markets.
Reversal Trading: Time pivots and Golden Pivots help pinpoint moments for potential price reversals.
Range Trading: Fibonacci Levels provide key price zones for trading within a defined range.
Cross-Market Application: Log/linear scale support makes the script suitable for stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies.

Change of Character FanChange of Character Fan
Overview
The Change of Character Fan is designed to help traders detect shifts (changes of character) in market direction and sentiment before they become fully visible through traditional candlestick analysis. Instead of relying solely on the shape or close of candlesticks, this indicator offers a direct, real-time look at the internal price action occurring within a single bar. This visibility into intrabar dynamics can potentially allow traders to enter or exit trades earlier, minimize false signals, and reduce their dependence on multiple lower-timeframe charts.
How it Works:
The indicator plots a "fan" consisting of five distinct slope lines within the current bar. Each line represents the internal trend of price movement based on user-defined lower timeframe data intervals.
By default, these intervals are set to 3, 5, 8, 13, and 21 samples from 1-second timeframe data.
Each line only appears when it has collected the minimum required number of intrabar data points.
The fan lines use a progressive opacity scale (lighter to darker), visually highlighting the confidence level or probability of directional continuation within the current bar.
At the open of every new bar, the fan disappears completely and gradually reappears as new data is gathered, ensuring clarity and eliminating outdated signals.
Understanding the Mathematics: Linear Regression Model
This indicator is built around the concept of a linear regression model. Linear regression is a statistical technique used to model and analyze relationships between variables—in this case, time (independent variable) and price (dependent variable).
How Linear Regression Works:
Linear regression fits a straight line (called a "line of best fit") through a set of data points, minimizing the overall distance between each point and the line itself.
Mathematically, this is achieved by minimizing the squared differences (errors) between the observed values (actual prices) and the predicted values (prices on the line).
The linear model used here can be expressed in the form:
y = mx + b
where:
𝑦
y is the predicted price,
𝑥
x represents time (each data sample interval),
𝑚
m is the slope of the line, representing the direction and velocity of the trend,
𝑏
b is the intercept (the theoretical price when x=0).
Why a Linear Model is Beneficial in this Indicator:
Simplicity and Reliability: Linear regression is simple, robust, and widely accepted as a baseline predictive model. It requires minimal computational resources, providing instant updates in real-time trading conditions.
Immediate Directional Feedback: The slope derived from linear regression immediately communicates the directional tendency of recent price action. A positive slope indicates upward pressure, and a negative slope signals downward pressure.
Noise Reduction: Even when price fluctuations are noisy or erratic, linear regression summarizes overall direction clearly, making it easier to detect genuine directional shifts (change of character) rather than random price noise.
Intrabar Analysis: Traditional candlestick analysis relies on fully formed candles, potentially delaying signals. By using linear regression on very short-term (intrabar) data, traders can detect shifts in momentum more quickly, providing an earlier signal than conventional candle patterns alone.
Practical Application:
This indicator helps traders to visually identify:
Early Trend Reversals: Intrabar analysis reveals momentum shifts potentially signaling reversals before they become obvious on conventional candles.
Momentum Continuations: Confidence is gained when all lines in the fan are clearly pointing in the same direction, indicating strong intrabar conviction.
Reduced False Signals: Traditional candlestick signals (e.g., hammer candles) sometimes produce false signals due to intrabar noise. By looking directly into intrabar dynamics, traders gain better context on whether candle patterns reflect genuine directional change or merely noise.
Important Requirements and Recommendations:
Subscription Requirements:
A TradingView subscription that supports sub-minute data (e.g., 1-second or 5-second resolution) is strongly recommended.
If your subscription doesn't include this data granularity, you must use a 1-minute lower timeframe, significantly reducing responsiveness. In this scenario, it's best suited for a 15-minute or higher chart, adjusting intervals to shorter periods.
Live Data Essential:
Real-time market data subscription is essential for the accuracy and effectiveness of this indicator.
Using delayed data reduces responsiveness and weakens the indicator's primary advantage.
Recommended Settings for Different Chart Timeframes:
1-minute chart: Use 1-second lower timeframe intervals (default intervals: 3, 5, 8, 13, 21).
5-minute chart: Adjust to a 5- or 10-second lower timeframe, possibly reducing intervals to shorter periods (e.g., 3, 5, 8, 10, 12).
15-minute or higher charts: Adjust lower timeframe to 1-minute if granular data is unavailable, with reduced interval lengths to maintain responsiveness.
Conclusion:
The Change of Character Fan empowers traders with early insight into directional shifts within each candle, significantly enhancing reaction speed, signal accuracy, and reducing dependency on multiple charts. Built on robust linear regression mathematics, it combines clarity, responsiveness, and ease-of-use in a powerful intrabar analysis tool.
Trade smarter, see sooner, and react faster.
Session Breakouts & Trend Indicator# Session Breakouts & Trend Indicator
This indicator identifies high-probability trading opportunities by tracking key intraday sessions and their breakouts while aligning them with the overall market trend direction.
## What Makes This Indicator Unique
Unlike standard breakout indicators that only identify when price crosses a threshold, this indicator:
- Dynamically identifies and tracks important daily sessions (default: AM 09:00-10:00 and PM 15:00-16:00)
- Determines trend direction using a triple EMA system (20/50/200)
- Shows when breakouts align with the overall trend (higher probability setups)
- Provides visual confirmation with session ranges, breakout levels, and background highlighting
- Includes a comprehensive information panel showing trend/session alignment
## How It Works
The indicator tracks two important daily sessions:
1. **AM Session**: Typically the first hour of trading (default: 09:00-10:00)
2. **PM Session**: Typically the last hour of trading (default: 15:00-16:00)
For each session, it:
- Marks the high and low range
- Establishes breakout levels above/below these ranges
- Detects when price breaks beyond these levels
- Determines if the breakout aligns with the prevailing trend
The trend is calculated using three EMAs (20, 50, 200) for reliable trend identification.
## How To Use
1. Apply the indicator to your chart (works best on 5-minute timeframes)
2. Adjust session times to match your trading schedule if needed
3. Watch for breakouts above session highs (bullish) or below session lows (bearish)
4. Check the information panel to see if the breakout aligns with the trend
5. Enter trades in the direction of trend-aligned breakouts for higher probability setups
6. Set stop losses below the opposite side of the session range
## Settings
- **Session Times**: Customize AM and PM session times
- **EMA Lengths**: Adjust trend determination sensitivity
- **Visualization Options**: Toggle display of sessions, breakouts, and VWAP
- **Alert Settings**: Configure alerts for breakouts and trend-aligned conditions
This indicator is valuable for day traders and swing traders looking for objective entry points with higher probability of success.
Highlight Candle Body ≤ 10 Ticks (Clean & Subtle)Purpose:
This indicator highlights candlesticks where the body size (difference between open and close) is 10 ticks or less, specifically for instruments like Crude Oil futures (CL) where 1 tick = 0.01.
How it works:
It calculates the body size: abs(close - open)
If the body is ≤ 0.10 (10 ticks), the candle is softly colored in muted orange.
Wicks are ignored — only the body is considered.
No additional shapes or markers — clean and minimal.
Use case:
Helps identify periods of indecision or low momentum — such as potential pause candles, traps, or setups just before volatility returns.
