REJECTION DETECTOR🔥 CTR (Candle Terjepit - Rejection)
This indicator is specifically designed to detect Rejection Candles, which are moments when the price rejects a certain level and has the potential to form a strong reversal or rapid reaction — an important signal for scalpers and price action traders.
💡 Key Concept:
Rejection is a form of market reaction to areas of liquidity, support-resistance, or order block zones. Candles with long tails and small bodies indicate an imbalance between buyers and sellers, providing an early indication that the price may soon reverse.

Market Structure Trailing Stop MTF [Inspired by LuxAlgo]# Market Structure Trailing Stop MTF
**OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT**
*208k+ views on original · Modified for MTF Support*
This indicator is a direct adaptation of the renowned **Market Structure Trailing Stop** by **LuxAlgo** (original script: [Market Structure Trailing Stop ]()). The core logic remains untouched, providing dynamic trailing stops based on market structure breaks (CHoCH/BOS). The **only modification** is the addition of **Multi-Timeframe (MTF) support**, allowing users to apply the trailing stops and structures from **higher timeframes (HTF)** directly on their current chart. This enhances usability for traders analyzing cross-timeframe confluence without switching charts.
**Special thanks to LuxAlgo** for releasing this powerful open-source tool under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0. Your contributions to the TradingView community have inspired countless traders—grateful for the solid foundation!
## 🔶 How the Script Works: A Deep Dive
At its heart, this indicator detects **market structure shifts** (bullish or bearish breaks of swing highs/lows) and uses them to generate **adaptive trailing stops**. These stops trail the price while protecting profits and acting as dynamic support/resistance levels. The MTF enhancement pulls this logic from user-specified higher timeframes, overlaying HTF structures and stops on the lower timeframe chart for seamless multi-timeframe analysis.
### Core Logic (Unchanged from LuxAlgo's Original)
1. **Pivot Detection**:
- Uses `ta.pivothigh()` and `ta.pivotlow()` with a user-defined lookback (`length`) to identify swing highs (PH) and lows (PL).
- Coordinates (price `y` and bar index/time `x`) are stored in persistent variables (`var`) for tracking recent pivots.
2. **Market Structure Detection**:
- **Bullish Structure (BOS/CHoCH)**: Triggers when `close > recent PH` (break above swing high).
- If `resetOn = 'CHoCH'`, resets only on major shifts (Change of Character); otherwise, on all breaks.
- Sets trend state `os = 1` (bullish) and highlights the break with a horizontal line (dashed for CHoCH, dotted for BOS).
- Initializes trailing stop at the local minimum (lowest low since the pivot) using a backward loop: `btm = math.min(low , btm)`.
- **Bearish Structure**: Triggers when `close < recent PL`, mirroring the bullish logic (`os = -1`, local maximum for stop).
- Structure state `ms` tracks the break type (1 for bull, -1 for bear, 0 neutral), resetting based on user settings.
3. **Trailing Stop Calculation**:
- Tracks **trailing max/min**:
- On new bull structure: Reset `max = close`.
- On new bear: Reset `min = close`.
- Otherwise: `max = math.max(close, max)` / `min = math.min(close, min)`.
- **Stop Adjustment** (the "trailing" magic):
- On fresh structure: `ts = btm` (bull) or `top` (bear).
- In ongoing trend: Increment/decrement by a percentage of the max/min change:
- Bull: `ts += (max - max ) * (incr / 100)`
- Bear: `ts += (min - min ) * (incr / 100)`
- This creates a **ratcheting effect**: Stops move favorably with the trend but never against it, converging toward price at a controlled rate.
- **Visuals**:
- Plots `ts` line colored by trend (teal for bull, red for bear).
- Fills area between `close` and `ts` (orange on retracements).
- Draws structure lines from pivot to break point.
4. **Edge Cases**:
- Variables like `ph_cross`/`pl_cross` prevent multiple triggers on the same pivot.
- Neutral state (`ms = 0`) preserves prior `max/min` until a new structure.
### MTF Enhancement (Our Addition)
- **request.security() Integration**:
- Wraps the entire core function `f()` in a security call for each timeframe (`tf1`, `tf2`).
- Returns HTF values (e.g., `ts1`, `os1`, structure times/prices) to the chart's context.
- Uses `lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off` for accurate historical repainting-free data.
- Structures are drawn using `xloc.bar_time` to align HTF lines precisely on the LTF chart.
- **Multi-Output Handling**:
- Separate plots/fills/lines for each TF (e.g., `plot_ts1`, `plot_ts2`).
- Colors and toggles per TF to distinguish HTF1 (e.g., teal/red) from HTF2 (e.g., blue/maroon).
- **Benefits**: Spot HTF bias on LTF entries, e.g., enter longs only if both TF1 (1H) and TF2 (4H) show bullish `os=1`.
This keeps the script lightweight—**no repainting, max 500 lines**, and fully compatible with LuxAlgo's original behavior when TFs are set to the chart's timeframe.
## 🔶 SETTINGS
### Core Parameters
- **Pivot Lookback** (`length = 14`): Bars left/right for pivot detection. Higher = smoother structures, fewer signals; lower = more noise.
- **Increment Factor %** (`incr = 100`): Speed of stop convergence (0-∞). 100% = full ratchet (mirrors max/min exactly); <100% = slower trail, reduces whipsaws.
- **Reset Stop On** (`'CHoCH'`): `'CHoCH'` = Reset only on major reversals (dashed lines); `'All'` = Reset on every BOS/CHoCH (tighter stops).
### MTF Support
- **Timeframe 1** (`tf1 = ""`): HTF for first set (e.g., "1H"). Empty = current chart.
- **Timeframe 2** (`tf2 = ""`): Second HTF (e.g., "4H"). Enables dual confluence.
### Display Toggles
- **Show Structures** (`true`): Draws horizontal lines for breaks (per TF colors).
- **Show Trailing Stop TF1/TF2** (`true`): Plots the stop line.
- **Show Fill TF1/TF2** (`true`): Area fill between close and stop.
### Candle Coloring (Optional)
- **Color Candles** (`false`): Enables custom `plotcandle` for body/wick/border.
- **Candle Color Based On TF** (`"None"`): `"TF1"`, `"TF2"`, or none. Colors bull trend green, bear red.
- **Candle Colors**: Separate inputs for bull/bear body, wick, border (e.g., solid green body, transparent wick).
### Alerts
- **Enable MS Break Alerts** (`false`): Notifies on structure breaks (bull/bear per TF) **only on bar close** (`barstate.isconfirmed` + `alert.freq_once_per_bar_close`).
- **Enable Stop Hit Alerts** (`false`): Triggers on stop breaches (long/short per TF), using `ta.crossunder/crossover`.
### Colors
- **TF1 Colors**: Bullish (teal), Bearish (red), Retracement (orange).
- **TF2 Colors**: Bullish (blue), Bearish (maroon), Retracement (orange).
- **Area Transparency** (`80`): Fill opacity (0-100).
## 🔶 USAGE
Trailing stops shine in **trend-following strategies**:
- **Entries**: Use structure breaks as signals (e.g., long on bullish BOS from HTF1).
- **Exits**: Trail stops for profit-locking; alert on hits for automation.
- **Confluence**: Overlay HTF1 (e.g., 1H) for bias, HTF2 (e.g., Daily) for major levels—enter LTF only on alignment.
- **Risk Management**: Lower `incr` avoids early stops in chop; reset on `'All'` for aggressive trailing.

Pro Tip: Test on demo—pair with LuxAlgo's other tools like Smart Money Concepts for full structure ecosystem.
## 🔶 DETAILS: Mathematical Breakdown
On bullish break:
- Local min: `btm = ta.lowest(n - ph_x)` (optimized loop equivalent).
- Stop init: `ts = btm`.
- Update: `Δmax = max - max `, `ts_new = ts + Δmax * (incr/100)`.
Bearish mirrors with `Δmin` (negative, so decrements `ts`).
In MTF: HTF `time` aligns lines via `line.new(htf_time, level, current_time, level, xloc.bar_time)`.
No logs/math libs needed—pure Pine v5 efficiency.

Candle PA Scanner (Engulfing / Inside / Pin) by BK SahniHere’s how to read the “Candle PA Scanner (Engulfing / Inside / Pin)” and what each input means.
What the signals look like on your chart
B-ENG (label above/below bar)
Bullish Engulfing → “B-ENG” below the bar (green/teal).
Bearish Engulfing → “B-ENG” above the bar (red).
IB (small orange dot at the top)
Inside Bar (compression). Use the mother bar’s high/low for the break.
PIN (triangle)
Bullish Pin → triangle below the bar (long lower wick; rejection of support).
Bearish Pin → triangle above the bar (long upper wick; rejection of resistance).
Treat these as price-action alerts, not automatic buy/sell signals. Act only when they occur at your levels (VWAP band, Fib 38.2–61.8, PDH/PDL, OB/FVG, etc.).
How to trade the prints (quick rules)
A) Bullish Engulfing at support
Context: at VWAP/VAL/0.5–0.618 Fib.
Entry: next candle above the engulfing high (or market order on close if volume/momentum confirm).
Stop: a tick below the engulfing low (or below the level).
Targets: mid/range, VWAP, prior swing; trail with Chandelier/ATR if trend extends.
B) Bearish Engulfing at resistance
Mirror the above: trigger below the engulfing low; stop above its high.
C) Inside Bar
It’s compression. Mark the mother bar’s high/low.
Trade the breakout in the direction of bias (above VWAP for longs, below for shorts).
If the break fails (closes back inside), often sets up a reversal—manage fast.
D) Pin Bar (rejection)
Enter on break of the pin’s body in the direction away from the wick.
Stop beyond the wick tip (invalidated if wick gets closed through).
Scale at VWAP/mid or the opposite range edge.
What the Inputs do (the panel you showed)
Inside Bar lookback (default 1)
How many bars back can be the mother bar.
Keep 1 for strict IB; raise to 2–3 to catch nested/compression patterns (more signals, a bit noisier).
Pin wick:body min ratio (default 2)
How long the rejection wick must be compared to the body.
Higher (2.5–3.0) = pickier, great in chop.
Lower (1.5–1.8) = more pins, useful in strong trends where wicks are shorter.
Min body % of range (0–1) (default 0.25)
Filters out dojis. The body must be at least 25% of the bar’s high-low range.
If you want to allow slimmer bodies (more pins/dojis), drop to 0.15–0.20.
If you want only decisive bodies, raise to 0.30–0.35.
Suggested tuning by market state
Trending / high momentum:
IB lookback 1, Pin ratio 1.8–2.2, Min body 0.20–0.25 (to catch more continuation entries).
Ranging / choppy:
IB lookback 2, Pin ratio 2.5–3.0, Min body 0.30 (fewer, higher-quality reversals).
A simple confluence checklist (use before clicking)
Signal printed at a level (VWAP band, Fib, PDH/PDL, OB/FVG)?
Bias aligned (above VWAP for longs, below for shorts) or you’re intentionally fading a range edge?
For engulfing: did it close through nearby minor structure?
For IB: are you trading the mother bar break, not just the small inside candle?
Risk defined: stop beyond wick/zone, target mapped (mid/VWAP/swing/extension).
Common pitfalls
Taking signals mid-range (low R:R).
Treating an IB as a reversal without a break/shift.
Buying a bullish pin that closed below your level (no acceptance).
Ignoring volatility—during news spikes, patterns fail more often.
WM & HS Radar (Block-Free)The W/M + H&S Radar automatically scans for double-top/double-bottom (M and W) and head-and-shoulders style reversal structures across any timeframe.
How it works:
Detects repeating pivot formations that resemble W (double bottom) or M (double top) structures.
Draws neckline levels for each pattern and highlights potential breakout points.
Confirms breakout validity when price closes beyond the neckline (optionally requiring a 1.2× volume surge).
Generates alerts when a valid W Long or M Short trigger occurs.
Best used on: 15m, 1h, or 4h charts to identify medium-term reversal entries.
Recommended companion: Orion Daily HL + Volume indicator for higher-timeframe context.
Alert Options:
“W Long Trigger” → Bullish reversal breakout.
“M Short Trigger” → Bearish reversal breakout.
Usage Tip:
Combine with your support/resistance zones and ATR-based stop sizing from your Money Momentum Tracker to validate A-setups only.

MACD Remastered [CHE]MACD Remastered — Robust MACD with confirmed pivot-based divergence, optional signal bands, and ready-to-use alerts.
Summary
This indicator augments classic MACD with a robust, confirmed pivot-based divergence engine and an optional signal channel using Bollinger Bands. Divergence signals are only produced after a pivot is confirmed, which reduces noise from transient swings. A line-of-sight clearance check filters cases where the MACD histogram path contradicts the divergence, further cutting false flags. Histogram coloring clarifies momentum changes, while optional triangles project the same signals onto the main chart for quick context.
Motivation: Why this design?
Standard MACD divergence tools tend to fire early in volatile phases and flip during consolidation. The core idea here is to delay decision points until a pivot is confirmed and to validate the path between pivots. This addresses fake flips and improves signal credibility at the cost of some latency. Optional bands around the Signal line add context about compression and expansion without altering MACD’s core behavior.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline: Classical MACD (fast and slow moving averages, Signal line, histogram) with simple divergence checks.
Architecture differences:
Confirmed pivot logic with left and right bars.
Line-of-sight clearance test across the histogram path between pivots.
Optional Signal-line Bollinger Bands with configurable length and width.
Composite “Any Divergence” alert plus separate regular and hidden alerts.
Optional main-chart triangles using forced overlay for at-a-glance context.
Practical effect: Fewer early or contradictory divergence signals, clearer momentum context via histogram colors and a visible Signal channel during compression and expansion.
How it works (technical)
The MACD line derives from a fast and a slow moving average on a chosen source. The Signal line smooths the MACD line using a selected moving average type and length. The histogram is the difference between MACD and Signal and is colored by direction and acceleration.
Divergence uses confirmed pivots: a pivot forms only after a set number of bars on the right side, so the event is locked in. The engine retrieves the last two relevant pivots and checks price movement versus the MACD histogram movement to classify regular or hidden divergence. A line-of-sight clearance routine traverses the histogram path between the two pivots and rejects the signal if the path invalidates the directional relationship. When enabled, Bollinger Bands are plotted around the Signal line; width scales with standard deviation. Programmatic alerts fire only on confirmed bars. No higher-timeframe requests are used.
Parameter Guide
Oscillator MA Type — Sets fast and slow MA family for MACD. Default: EMA. Tip: EMA is more responsive; SMA is steadier.
Fast Length — Fast MA period. Default: 12. Trade-off: Shorter is quicker but noisier.
Slow Length — Slow MA period. Default: 26. Trade-off: Longer reduces noise but adds lag.
Source — Price input. Default: Close. Tip: Use a stable source for consistency.
Signal MA Type — Moving average family for Signal. Default: EMA.
Signal Length — Smoothing of MACD into Signal. Default: 9. Trade-off: Longer smooths more, reacts slower.
Calculate Divergence — Enables divergence engine. Default: True.
Enable Bollinger Bands on Signal — Adds bands around Signal. Default: False.
BB Length — Sampling window for bands. Default: 20. Active: Only when bands are enabled.
BB StdDev — Band width in standard deviations. Default: 2.0. Bounds: between about zero point zero zero one and fifty.
Pivot Left / Pivot Right — Bars to the left and right that define a confirmed pivot. Default: five and five. Trade-off: Larger values mean stronger but slower pivots.
Min / Max Bars Between Pivots — Valid window between two pivots. Default: five and sixty. Tip: Increase minimum to reduce micro-divergences.
Detect Hidden — Include hidden divergence. Default: True.
Draw Lines — Draw connector lines on the MACD pane. Default: True.
Alerts: Enable / Regular / Hidden / Frequency / Prefix — Control alert emission, categories, cadence, and label. Defaults: Enabled, both categories on, once per bar close, prefix “MACD RM”.
Reading & Interpretation
Histogram: Columns above zero reflect positive momentum; below zero reflect negative momentum. Color shifts indicate momentum increasing or decreasing within each side.
MACD and Signal: Crosses and distance indicate momentum shifts and strength. When bands are enabled, touches and departures hint at compression and expansion around the Signal.
Divergence: Solid green lines and labels indicate regular bullish; solid red indicate regular bearish. Dashed teal and dashed orange denote hidden bullish and hidden bearish. Triangles on the main chart mirror these events for quicker visibility.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Use histogram color transitions with a structure filter such as higher highs and higher lows for long bias, or lower highs and lower lows for short bias. Divergence against the prevailing structure suggests caution or partial exits.
Exits and risk: In a long, regular bearish divergence near resistance can justify scaling out or tightening stops. Hidden divergence in the trend direction can support continuation but should not replace risk controls.
Multi-asset / Multi-timeframe: Works across liquid futures, forex, indices, and large-cap equities. Start with defaults on four-hour and daily; shorten lengths on intraday only when liquidity is strong.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint and confirmation: Signals are anchored only after the right-side pivot bars complete; alerts trigger on confirmed bars. This intentionally adds latency to reduce noise.
No higher-timeframe requests: No `security` calls are used; repaint risk is primarily tied to live bars before confirmation.
Resources: Declared `max_bars_back` is five hundred. The divergence path check iterates between pivots, bounded by the maximum bars parameter. Line objects may accumulate; limits are set for lines and labels.
Known limits: Latency at sharp turns, potential misses during fast single-bar reversals, and sensitivity to extremely choppy sessions if minimum gap between pivots is set too low.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tunin g
Starting point: EMA, twelve and twenty-six with Signal nine; pivots five and five; minimum five, maximum sixty; alerts on close; bands off.
Too many flips: Increase Signal length, raise pivot counts, and increase minimum bars between pivots. Consider disabling hidden divergence.
Too sluggish: Reduce pivot counts, lower Signal length, and enable bands to visualize early compression.
Cluttered chart: Keep lines off and rely on labels and main-chart triangles. Use the alert prefix to route events cleanly.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a visualization and signal layer for MACD with confirmed, path-checked divergence and optional Signal bands. It is not a trading system, not predictive, and not a position management framework. Use it together with structure analysis, liquidity context, and explicit risk controls.

// BlackScrum — 1/2/3-Bar Swing Boxes (auto timeframe)
//
// DESCRIPTION
// This indicator displays three swing-direction boxes (1B, 2B, 3B) in the top-right corner of the chart.
// The boxes automatically adapt to the chart's timeframe (15m, 1H, 4H, 1D, etc.).
// Each box represents the direction of the most recently confirmed swing pivot:
// • 1B → 1-bar swing (fastest, most sensitive)
// • 2B → 2-bar swing (medium confirmation)
// • 3B → 3-bar swing (slowest, strongest confirmation)
//
// COLORS
// • GREEN = last confirmed swing pivot was a higher low (up swing)
// • RED = last confirmed swing pivot was a lower high (down swing)
// • GREY = no clear swing yet (fresh/transition area)
//
// CONFLUENCE
// • ALL GREEN = bullish alignment across 1B, 2B, 3B → strong trend continuation signal
// • ALL RED = bearish alignment across all three → strong downtrend continuation signal
//
// HOW TO USE (TRADEPLAY)
//
// 1) ENTRIES
// • Aggressive entry → enter when ALL GREEN prints on your timeframe.
// • Safer pullback entry → wait for 1B to briefly turn red during a green 2B/3B,
// then flip back to green. Enter on the re-flip.
// • Multi-timeframe filter:
// Take longs only when higher TF (e.g., 1H/4H) boxes are at least neutral-to-green.
//
// 2) EXITS
// • Weakness exit → when 1B flips against your position while 2B is neutral/red.
// • Full exit → when ALL RED prints.
// • Time stop → if price hasn’t moved after several bars of your execution timeframe.
//
// 3) STOP-LOSS / RISK
// • Place stops beyond the latest opposite swing used by 2B or 3B.
// • Add 0.5–1× ATR buffer if your market has stop-hunt volatility.
// • Always size position based on the distance to the swing stop.
//
// 4) WHEN TO IGNORE SIGNALS
// • Chop zones → 1B flipping repeatedly while 2B/3B disagree.
// • News candles → wait for pivots to confirm on the *closed* bar.
//
// 5) USING WITH OTHER TOOLS
// • With a trend ribbon (e.g., Larsson-style):
// Only take ALL GREEN longs when the ribbon is UP, and ALL RED shorts when ribbon is DOWN.
// • With a Fear & Greed index:
// Prefer longs when F&G > 60,
// Avoid longs when F&G < 40 unless countertrend scalping.
//
// 6) TIMEFRAME GUIDANCE
// • Scalping: 5m / 15m, confirmed by 1H or 4H boxes.
// • Swinging: 1H / 4H with daily filter.
// • Positioning: 1D with weekly confirmation.
//
// 7) INTERPRETATION CHEATSHEET
// • 1B green, 2B grey, 3B red → short-term bounce inside higher timeframe downtrend.
// • 1B/2B green, 3B grey → early trend reversal forming.
// • All grey → fresh swing area; wait for direction.
//
// 8) CUSTOMIZATION
// • len1 / len2 / len3 control sensitivity (higher = slower & cleaner).
// • Can add a timeframe header box (e.g., “15m / 4H / 1D”).
// • Can add a multi-timeframe grid (e.g., 15m | 1H | 4H | 1D each with 1B/2B/3B).

Island Reversal [LuxAlgo]The Island Reversal tool allows traders to identify reversal patterns directly on the chart. These patterns signal a potential change in trend, either from bullish to bearish or vice versa.
The tool enables traders to filter these patterns by trend, volume, and range, making it easy to display pure or less constrained island reversals.
🔶 USAGE
An island reversal pattern may indicate a change in trend. It occurs when prices change direction from an uptrend to a downtrend, or vice versa.
This pattern is a great tool for timing the market. Traders should be aware of when these patterns develop and watch how prices behave after the pattern forms.
Now, let's take a closer look at one of these island reversal patterns to highlight its different components.
The different parts are depicted in the image above.
1. A trend prior to the pattern
2. A gap starts the pattern.
3. A range of prices
4. A final gap, opposite to the first one, closes the pattern.
5. In this case, the pattern leads to a bearish trend, which is opposite to the trend in the first step.
🔹 Trend, Volume and Range Filters
Enabling the trend filter causes the tool to only detect top island reversals during a bullish trend and bottom island reversals during a bearish trend.
Traders can adjust the size of the detected trend in the settings panel. The larger the trend size, the more relevant the reversal patterns can be.
The volume filter only detects reversal patterns if there is more volume within the range of the pattern than in the preceding trend.
The idea is that more people tend to participate at the top and bottom of a trend as it changes direction.
The tool has two range filters that discriminate the range within the island reversal pattern:
Horizontality Filter (R2): Based on the R-squared statistic from linear regression, it detects whether the price is moving sideways within the range.
Volatility Filter: Based on long-term volatility, it detects the size of the range within the pattern.
The smaller the value in the Horizontality Filter, the more horizontal the prices will be within the range. A larger value will detect more reversal patterns.
The larger the value in the Volatility Filter, the larger the ranges will be. A smaller value will detect fewer reversal patterns.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Trend Filter
Trend Filter: Enable or disable the trend filter.
Trend Length: Select the size of the detected trend.
🔹 Volume Filter
Volume Filter: Enable or disable the volume filter.
🔹 Range Filter
Horizontality Filter (R2): Enable or disable the Horizontality filter and select a threshold value.
Volatility Filter: Enable or disable the Volatility filter and select the multiplier value.
🔹 Style
Bullish: Select a color for bullish sessions.
Bearish: Select a color for bearish sessions.
Transparency: Select a transparency level from 100 to 0.
Ultimate Scalping IndicatorOverview
The Confluence Signal Indicator is a precision-built scalping tool designed to identify high-probability reversal points in the market.
It combines three core technical elements:
Trend
Mean reversion
Momentum
into a single, efficient system.
By filtering out weak RSI signals and focusing only on setups that align with trend direction and recent momentum shifts, this indicator delivers cleaner and more accurate short-term trade signals.
Core Components
200-Period Moving Average (MA200, 5-Minute Timeframe)
The MA200 is always calculated from the 5-minute chart, regardless of your current timeframe. It defines the macro trend direction and ensures that all trades align with the prevailing momentum.
Session VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price)
The VWAP tracks the real-time average price weighted by volume for the current trading session. It acts as a dynamic mean-reversion level and helps identify key areas of institutional activity and short-term balance.
RSI (Relative Strength Index)
The indicator uses a standard 14-period RSI to detect overbought and oversold market conditions.
A “recency filter” is added to ensure signals only appear when RSI has recently transitioned from strength to weakness or vice versa, reducing false signals in trending markets.
Signal Logic
Bullish Signal (Green Arrow)
A bullish reversal signal is plotted below a candle when:
Price is above both the 5-minute MA200 and the Session VWAP.
RSI is oversold (below 30).
The last time RSI was above 50 occurred within the last 10 candles before going oversold.
This ensures that the dip is a fresh pullback within an uptrend, not a prolonged oversold condition.
Bearish Signal (Red Arrow)
A bearish reversal signal is plotted above a candle when:
Price is below both the 5-minute MA200 and the Session VWAP.
RSI is overbought (above 70).
The last time RSI was below 50 occurred within the last 10 candles before going overbought.
This ensures that the overbought reading follows a recent move from weakness, identifying potential short entries in a downtrend.
Recommended Usage
This is a scalping-focused indicator, intended for use on timeframes of 5 minutes or lower. Therefore I would highly recommend to use it on Equity futures trading, such as NQ!, ES!, GC! and so on.
It performs best when combined with additional tools such as support and resistance zones, order blocks, or liquidity levels for context.
Avoid counter-trend signals unless confirmed by price structure or volume behavior.

StarterPack MAsThe Starter Moving Averages indicator is a clean and efficient tool designed to help traders identify market direction, momentum, and potential reversal points using dynamic moving averages. Built for clarity and precision, it combines multiple timeframes and visual signals to simplify decision-making without overloading your chart.
You can choose between EMA or SMA and set up to four custom lengths — by default: 9, 21, 50, and 200. These settings cover short-, medium-, and long-term trends, allowing you to analyze price behavior from scalping setups to major market cycles.
The script also includes optional higher-timeframe MAs, so you can align lower-timeframe entries with the overall market bias. For example, a bullish crossover on the 5-minute chart becomes more powerful when the higher timeframe MAs also point upward.
To make it even more intuitive, the indicator offers:
Automatic bar coloring based on MA alignment (green for uptrend, red for downtrend).
Crossover signals (MA1 crossing MA2) plotted directly on the chart, highlighting potential entry or exit zones.
Alert conditions ready to use — so you can be notified instantly when bullish or bearish crosses occur.
This indicator is highly adaptable for different trading styles — whether you’re a scalper, day trader, or swing trader. Its main goal is to help you quickly read the market structure and follow price action with discipline and consistency.
How to use:
Choose your preferred MA type (EMA or SMA).
Adjust the four MA lengths to fit your strategy.
(Optional) Activate the Higher Timeframe MAs for confluence.
Use color changes and cross signals as a visual guide to confirm trend direction or momentum shifts.
Set alerts to stay informed when a new cross occurs.
The Starter MAs indicator was created to bring simplicity, accuracy, and structure to your trading approach — a clean tool that helps you focus on what really matters: reading the market clearly and trading with confidence.
Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI) - Advanced SMC [PhenLabs]📊Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI)
Version: PineScript™v6
📌Description
The Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI) is an advanced Smart Money Concepts implementation that tracks institutional trading behavior through multi-dimensional analysis. This comprehensive indicator combines volume-validated Order Block detection, Fair Value Gap identification with auto-mitigation tracking, dynamic Liquidity Zone mapping, and Break of Structure/Change of Character detection into a unified system.
Unlike basic SMC indicators, SMFI employs a proprietary scoring algorithm that weighs five critical factors: Order Block strength (validated by volume), Fair Value Gap size and recency, proximity to Liquidity Zones, market structure alignment (BOS/CHoCH), and multi-timeframe confluence. This produces a Smart Money Score (0-100) where readings above 70 represent optimal institutional setup conditions.
🚀Points of Innovation
Volume-Validated Order Block Detection – Only displays Order Blocks when formation candle exceeds customizable volume multiplier (default 1.5x average), filtering weak zones and highlighting true institutional accumulation/distribution
Auto-Mitigation Tracking System – Fair Value Gaps and Order Blocks automatically update status when price mitigates them, with visual distinction between active and filled zones preventing trades on dead levels
Proprietary Smart Money Score Algorithm – Combines weighted factors (OB strength 25%, FVG proximity 20%, Liquidity 20%, Structure 20%, MTF 15%) into single 0-100 confidence rating updating in real-time
ATR-Based Adaptive Calculations – All distance measurements use 14-period Average True Range ensuring consistent function across any instrument, timeframe, or volatility regime without manual recalibration
Dynamic Age Filtering – Automatically removes liquidity levels and FVGs older than configurable thresholds preventing chart clutter while maintaining relevant levels
Multi-Timeframe Confluence Integration – Analyzes higher timeframe bias with customizable multipliers (2-10x) and incorporates HTF trend direction into Smart Money Score for institutional alignment
🔧Core Components
Order Block Engine – Detects institutional supply/demand zones using characteristic patterns (down-move-then-strong-up for bullish, up-move-then-strong-down for bearish) with minimum volume threshold validation, tracks mitigation when price closes through zones
Fair Value Gap Scanner – Identifies price imbalances where current candle's low/high leaves gap with two-candle-prior high/low, filters by minimum size percentage, monitors 50% fill for mitigation status
Liquidity Zone Mapper – Uses pivot high/low detection with configurable lookback to mark swing points where stop losses cluster, extends horizontal lines to visualize sweep targets, manages lifecycle through age-based removal
Market Structure Analyzer – Tracks pivot progression to identify trend through higher-highs/higher-lows (bullish) or lower-highs/lower-lows (bearish), detects Break of Structure and Change of Character for trend/reversal confirmation
Scoring Calculation Engine – Evaluates proximity to nearest Order Blocks using ATR-normalized distance, assesses FVG recency and distance, calculates liquidity proximity with age weighting, combines structure bias and MTF trend into smoothed final score
🔥Key Features
Customizable Display Limits – Control maximum Order Blocks (1-10), Liquidity Zones (1-10), and FVG age (10-200 bars) to maintain clean charts focused on most relevant institutional levels
Gradient Strength Visualization – All zones render with transparency-adjustable coloring where stronger/newer zones appear more solid and weaker/older zones fade progressively providing instant visual hierarchy
Educational Label System – Optional labels identify each zone type (Bullish OB, Bearish OB, Bullish FVG, Bearish FVG, BOS) with color-coded text helping traders learn SMC concepts through practical application
Real-Time Smart Money Score Dashboard – Top-right table displays current score (0-100) with color coding (green >70, yellow 30-70, red <30) plus trend arrow for at-a-glance confidence assessment
Comprehensive Alert Suite – Configurable notifications for Order Block formation, Fair Value Gap detection, Break of Structure events, Change of Character signals, and high Smart Money Score readings (>70)
Buy/Sell Signal Integration – Automatically plots triangle markers when Smart Money Score exceeds 70 with aligned market structure and fresh Order Block detection providing clear entry signals
🎨Visualization
Order Block Boxes – Shaded rectangles extend from formation bar spanning high-to-low of institutional candle, bullish zones in green, bearish in red, with customizable transparency (80-98%)
Fair Value Gap Zones – Rectangular areas marking imbalances, active FVGs display in bright colors with adjustable transparency, mitigated FVGs switch to gray preventing trades on filled zones
Liquidity Level Lines – Dashed horizontal lines extend from pivot creation points, swing highs in bearish color (short targets above), swing lows in bullish color (long targets below), opacity decreases with age
Structure Labels – "BOS" labels appear above/below price when Break of Structure confirmed, colored by direction (green bullish, red bearish), positioned at 1% beyond highs/lows for visibility
Educational Info Panel – Bottom-right table explains key terminology (OB, FVG, BOS, CHoCH) and score interpretation (>70 high probability) with semi-transparent background for readability

Fair Value Gap Retracement Trading – When price creates FVG during strong move then retraces, enter as price approaches unfilled gap expecting institutional orders to continue trend
Liquidity Sweep Reversals – Monitor price approaching swing high/low liquidity zones against prevailing Smart Money Score trend, after stop hunt sweep watch for rejection into premium Order Block/FVG
Multi-Timeframe Confluence Setups – Identify alignment when current timeframe Order Block coincides with higher timeframe FVG plus MTF analysis showing matching trend bias
Break of Structure Continuations – After BOS confirms trend direction, trade pullbacks to nearest Order Block or FVG in direction of structure break using Smart Money Score >70 as entry filter
Change of Character Reversal Plays – When CHoCH detected indicating potential reversal, look for Smart Money Score pivot with opposing Order Block formation then enter on structure confirmation
⚠️Limitations
Lagging Pivot Calculations – Pivot-based features (Liquidity Zones, Market Structure) require bars to right of pivot for confirmation, meaning these elements identify levels retrospectively with delay equal to lookback period
Whipsaw in Ranging Markets – During choppy conditions, Order Blocks fail frequently and structure breaks produce false signals as Smart Money Score fluctuates without clear institutional bias, best used in trending markets
Volume Data Dependency – Order Block volume validation requires accurate volume data which may be incomplete on Forex pairs or limited in crypto exchange feeds
Subjectivity in Scoring Weights – Proprietary 25-20-20-20-15 weighting reflects general institutional behavior but may not optimize for specific instruments or market regimes, user cannot adjust factor weights
Visual Complexity on Lower Timeframes – Sub-hour timeframes generate excessive zones creating cluttered charts, requires aggressive display limit reduction and higher minimum thresholds
No Fundamental Integration – Indicator analyzes purely technical price action and volume without incorporating economic events, news catalysts, or fundamental shifts that override technical levels
💡What Makes This Unique
Unified SMC Ecosystem – Unlike indicators displaying Order Blocks OR FVGs OR Liquidity separately, SMFI combines all three institutional concepts plus market structure into single cohesive system
Proprietary Confidence Scoring – Rather than manual setup assessment, automated Smart Money Score quantifies probability by weighting five institutional dimensions into actionable 0-100 rating
Volume-Filtered Quality – Eliminates weak Order Blocks forming without institutional volume confirmation, ensuring displayed zones represent genuine accumulation/distribution
Adaptive Lifecycle Management – Automatically updates mitigation status and removes aged zones preventing trades on dead levels through continuous validity and age monitoring
Educational Integration – Built-in tooltips, labeled zones, and reference panel make indicator functional for both learning Smart Money Concepts and executing strategies
🔬How It Works
Order Block Detection – Scans for patterns where strong directional move follows counter-move creating last down-candle before rally (bullish OB) or last up-candle before sell-off (bearish OB), validates formations only when candle exhibits volume exceeding configurable multiple (default 1.5x) of 20-bar average volume
Fair Value Gap Identification – Compares current candle’s high/low against two-candles-prior low/high to detect price imbalances, calculates gap size as percentage of close and filters micro-gaps below minimum threshold (default 0.3%), monitors whether subsequent price fills 50% triggering mitigation status
Liquidity Zone Mapping – Employs pivot detection using configurable lookback (default 50 bars) to identify swing highs/lows where retail stops cluster, extends horizontal reference lines from pivot creation and applies age-based filtering to remove stale zones
Market Structure Analysis – Tracks pivot progression using structure-specific lookback (default 5 bars) to determine trend, confirms uptrend when new pivot high exceeds previous by minimum move percentage, detects Break of Structure when price breaks recent pivot level, flags Change of Character for potential reversals
Multi-Timeframe Confluence – When enabled, requests security data from higher timeframe (current TF × HTF multiplier, default 4x), compares HTF close against HTF 20-period MA to determine bias, contributes ±50 points to score ensuring alignment with institutional positioning on superior timeframe
Smart Money Score Calculation – Evaluates Order Block component via ATR-normalized distance producing max 100-point contribution weighted at 25%, assesses FVG factor through age penalty and distance at 20% weight, calculates Liquidity proximity at 20%, incorporates structure bias (±50-100 points) at 20%, adds MTF component at 15%, applies 3-period smoothing to reduce volatility
Visual Rendering and Lifecycle – Draws Order Block boxes, Fair Value Gap rectangles with color coding (green/red active, gray mitigated), extends liquidity dashed lines with fade-by-age opacity, plots BOS labels, displays Smart Money Score dashboard, continuously updates checking mitigation conditions and removing elements exceeding age/display limits
💡Note:
The Smart Money Flow Index combines multiple Smart Money Concepts into unified institutional order flow analysis. For optimal results, use the Smart Money Score as confluence filter rather than standalone entry signal – scores above 70 indicate high-probability setups but should be combined with risk management, higher timeframe bias, and market regime understanding.
