Trend Following Volatility TrailThe Trend Following Volatility Trail is a dynamic trend-following tool that adapts its stop, bias, and zones to real-time volatility and trend strength. Instead of using static ATR multiples like a normal Supertrend or Chandelier Stop, it continuously adjusts itself based on how stretched the market is and how persistent the trend has been.
This makes the system far more reactive during momentum phases and more conservative during consolidation, helping avoid fake flips and late entries.
How It Works
The indicator builds an adaptive trail around a smoothed price basis:
It starts with a short EMA as the “core trend line.”
It measures volatility expansion versus normal volatility.
It measures trend persistence by reading whether price has been rising or falling consistently.
These two components combine to adjust the ATR multiplier dynamically.
As volatility expands or the trend becomes more persistent, the bands widen. When volatility compresses or the trend weakens, the bands tighten.
These adaptive bands form the foundation of the trailing system.
Bull & Bear State Logic
The tool constantly tracks whether price is above or below the adaptive trail:
Price above the upper trail → Bullish regime
Price below the lower trail → Bearish regime
But instead of flipping immediately, it waits for confirmation bars to avoid noise. This greatly reduces whipsaws and keeps the focus on sustained moves.
Once a new regime is confirmed:
A coloured cloud appears (bull or bear)
A label marks the flip point
Alerts can be triggered automatically
Best Uses
Identifying regime shifts early
Riding sustained trends with confidence
Avoiding choppy markets by requiring confirmation
Using the adaptive cloud as a directional bias layer

Smart Trail Signals NO CONDITIONSSmart Trail Signals Indicator
Overview
This is a trend-following indicator that uses a dynamic trailing stop system to identify bullish and bearish trends. It adapts to market volatility using ATR (Average True Range) and provides visual signals when the trend direction changes.
Core Components
Smart Trail System:
Calculates dynamic support (trail_up) and resistance (trail_down) levels
Adjusts trail levels based on price movement and volatility
Maintains trend direction until price crosses the opposite trail level
Key Parameters:
Length (14): Period for ATR calculation
Multiplier (2.0): Distance of trail from price relative to ATR
Sensitivity (1-5): Fine-tunes how quickly the trail adapts to price changes
How It Works
Trend Detection: Monitors whether price is above the support trail (bullish) or below the resistance trail (bearish)
Trail Movement:
In uptrends: Support trail rises with price but never decreases
In downtrends: Resistance trail falls with price but never increases
Signals: Diamond shapes appear when trend flips:
Green diamond below bar = bullish trend change
Red diamond above bar = bearish trend change
Visual Aids:
Trail line changes color (lime for uptrend, red for downtrend)
Candles colored green (bullish), red (bearish), or gray (neutral)
Best Use Cases
Identifying trend reversals on any timeframe
Following strong directional moves
Setting dynamic stop-loss levels
Works 24/7 on all instruments (stocks, crypto, forex)

Engulfing Candlestick Pattern - BB FilterBeen working on doing a better version of this. This is like version 2.0. Usese this definition of an engulfing candle:
tradeciety.com/how-to-trade-the-engulfing-candlestick-pattern
As you change the parameters of the Bollinger band the signals will change.
You can also set the distance away from the band using ATR muliplier to catch moves near the BB.
Per Claude,
This setup should give you much higher quality signals since you're filtering for engulfing patterns that occur at the extremes of the Bollinger Bands - exactly like the Tradeciety article recommends. Those are the setups with the best context and highest probability.
A few tips for using it:
You can adjust the BB Touch Distance slider if you want to be stricter or more lenient about what counts as "touching" the bands
Try enabling Strict Mode if you want only the strongest engulfing patterns (where the full range including wicks is engulfed)
Works great on higher timeframes like Daily and Weekly for the most reliable signals on NQ and ES
I personally use this on the 1000 tick NQ chart.
It's not perfect but 2x better than my first attempt. Enjoy.
Open to suggestions as well.

Dynamic Liquidity Levels [CDC Trading LABN] (ENGLISH)Script Description :
Take your market structure and liquidity analysis to the next level with Dynamic Liquidity Levels, a professional-grade tool designed to visualize the key levels that truly move the price. This indicator doesn't just plot static lines; it offers a dynamic framework that reacts to price action in real-time, keeping your chart clean and focused on what matters.
Designed for scalpers and swing traders alike, this indicator is your map for navigating market liquidity.
Key Features
• Smart Dynamic Lines: The standout feature of this indicator. Lines automatically stop extending once price has "invalidated" them. You decide whether the break occurs on a simple wick touch (to capture liquidity grabs) or a full candle close beyond the level (for a stronger confirmation).
• Comprehensive Liquidity Levels: Automatically draws the most important liquidity pools that professional traders watch every day:
• HTF Levels: Previous Day, Week, and Month Highs & Lows (PDH/L, PWH/L, PMH/L).
• Session Levels: Asian, London, and New York Session Highs & Lows (ASH/L, LSH/L, NYH/L).
• Full Label Control: Forget about overlapping labels. Adjust the position of each label individually (Left, Right, Center, Upper, Lower) for perfect visual clarity in any market condition.
• Instant, Configurable Alerts: Never miss an opportunity. Set up alerts that trigger the moment a level of your choice is broken, helping you execute your trades with precision.
• Clean & Professional Visualization: Fully customizable. Adjust colors, line width, and decide whether to display exact prices in the labels for an analysis setup tailored to your style.
Who is This Indicator For?
This tool is essential for a wide range of trading methodologies:
• Smart Money Concepts (SMC) & ICT Traders: Perfect for identifying liquidity pools and draw on liquidity levels. Use it to frame your order blocks and points of interest.
• Candle Range Theory (CRT) Traders: This indicator automates the core of your analysis. It identifies and projects the key candle ranges from higher timeframes (Daily, Weekly, Monthly) and trading sessions. Use these levels to anticipate price expansion and identify liquidity targets above and below established ranges, without manual markup every day.
• Price Action Traders: Clearly and automatically visualize the most relevant support and resistance levels based on high-timeframe market structure.
• Day Traders & Scalpers: Make quick decisions based on previous day's levels and session highs/lows, which act as magnets for intraday price.
• Swing Traders: Use the weekly and monthly levels to get a macro view of the structure and plan longer-term trades.
How to Use
1. Add the indicator to your chart.
2. Explore the settings panel to enable the levels and alerts that fit your trading plan.
3. Adjust the label positions for maximum clarity.
4. To receive alerts, right-click on the chart, create a new alert, select the indicator from the dropdown, and choose the "Any alert() function call" option.
We hope this tool greatly helps you improve your market analysis.
Happy trading!

X ATM Option Ladder Premium (1DTE Dynamic Wings)X ATM Option Ladder Premium is a specialized options-market visualization tool designed for intraday tracking of at-the-money (ATM) option premiums in index ETFs such as QQQ and SPY.The script dynamically identifies the ATM contract on every bar and plots real-time call-versus-put premium differences, with columns for positive/negative diffs and markers (blue dots for positive, red squares for negative) to represent upward price ticks in the option premiums.By analyzing premium levels and direction data from multiple strikes within a dynamic ± range (approximating 0.25 delta wings for 1DTE), the indicator produces a real-time histogram that reflects how premium skew evolves relative to the underlying price.Complementary status tables display the active strike, ladder position, IV-derived wing depth, and warnings when the underlying moves outside the monitored range.Core FeaturesDynamic ATM selection – Each bar automatically maps to the option contract closest to the underlying’s price.Bidirectional premium comparison – Visual separation of call and put premiums (optional columns), with premium diff as the primary histogram and “up” markers highlighting contracts trading above their prior close.Multi-strike ladder analysis – Samples strikes within IV-adjusted wings (±2-5 points typical for 1DTE at 15-25% IV) from the defined center to capture skew and momentum near the money; uses VIX1D for real-time IV approximation.Optimized data calls – Uses tuple requests to minimize request.security() load, enabling a wider ladder within TradingView limits.Session awareness – Restricts processing to the 9:30 AM – 4:15 PM ET option-trading window.Status dashboard – Displays date, active strike, warning flags (“⚠︎ / •outside”), wing parameters (e.g., “±3 (VIX1D=20%)”), and ladder details directly on chart.Use CaseThe indicator is intended for intraday traders and options-premium analysts who want to visualize how short-term pricing dynamics and sentiment migrate across the ATM region as the underlying moves. Typical applications include:Monitoring real-time call/put premium imbalances to detect skew shifts, put-call parity deviations, or implied vol divergences.Identifying premium clustering near the money—where theta decay or gamma effects can signal underlying price acceleration or pinning.Detecting when price exits the monitored ladder (⚠︎ / •outside), signaling a potential regime change or requiring manual recentering.Integrating premium flow into broader volatility or ETF models (e.g., VIX alignment or QQQ/SPY skew confirmation for straddle/strangle trades).Technical NotesStatic-center architecture ensures historical consistency: prior bars remain fixed even after re-centering.Ladder depth is dynamically computed for 1DTE 0.25Δ wings via VIX1D IV (fallback to fixed ±3); capped at ±5 to stay under TradingView’s security-call limits.auto_nudge is enabled to smoothly align the selected lane with the active ATM without requiring user intervention.Indicator is optimized for 1-minute to 5-minute charts; use overlay = false to preserve scale clarity. Manual 1DTE expiry input required (e.g., YYMMDD format).

Michael's FVG Detector
═══════════════════════════════════════
A clean and efficient Fair Value Gap (FVG) indicator for TradingView that helps traders identify market imbalances with precision.
───────────────────────────────────────
Overview
───────────────────────────────────────
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) are price inefficiencies that occur when there's a gap between the wicks of candlesticks, indicating rapid price movement with minimal trading activity. These gaps often act as support/resistance zones where price may return to "fill the gap."
This indicator automatically detects and visualizes both bullish and bearish FVGs on any timeframe, making it easy to spot potential trading opportunities.
───────────────────────────────────────
Features
───────────────────────────────────────
Core Functionality
Automatic FVG Detection : Identifies Fair Value Gaps in real-time as they form
Bullish & Bearish FVGs : Detects both upward and downward price gaps
3-Candle Pattern : Uses classic FVG logic (current candle low > high from 2 bars ago for bullish, vice versa for bearish)
Gap Size Display : Shows the exact size of each FVG in ticks directly on the box
Confirmed Bars Only : Only draws FVGs on confirmed bars to prevent repainting
Customization
Color Settings : Fully customizable colors for bullish and bearish FVGs with transparency control
Text Color : Configurable color for the tick size labels
Default Styling : Comes with sensible defaults (20% transparency, dark gray labels)
Performance Optimization
Smart Cleanup : Automatically removes boxes outside the visible chart area
Efficient Rendering : Maintains optimal performance even on lower timeframes
No Repainting : Uses confirmed bars only for reliable signals
───────────────────────────────────────
How It Works
───────────────────────────────────────
Detection Logic
Bullish FVG:
Current bar's low is higher than the high from 2 bars ago
Creates an upward gap that price left behind during bullish momentum
Bearish FVG:
Current bar's high is lower than the low from 2 bars ago
Creates a downward gap that price left behind during bearish momentum
Visual Display
Each detected FVG is displayed as:
A semi-transparent colored box spanning the gap area
The box extends from bar -2 to the current bar
Gap size in ticks shown at the bottom-left of each box
Singular/plural formatting ("1 tick" vs "X ticks")
───────────────────────────────────────
Performance Notes
───────────────────────────────────────
Cleanup runs every 50 bars to maintain optimal performance
Only creates boxes on confirmed bars (no real-time repainting)
Efficiently manages memory by removing off-screen boxes
Suitable for both manual and automated trading strategies
