Overview
The EPS and Sales Magic Indicator V2 is a powerful stock fundamental visualization tool built specifically for TradingView users who wish to incorporate earnings intelligence directly onto their price chart. Designed and developed by Trading_Tomm, this upgraded version of the original 'EPS and Sales Magic Indicator' includes an enriched and more insightful presentation of company performance metrics — now with TTM EPS support, advanced color-coding, label sizing, and refined control options.
This indicator is tailored for retail traders, swing investors, and long-term fundamental analysts who need to view Quarter-over-Quarter (QoQ) earnings and revenue changes directly on the price chart without switching tabs or breaking focus.
What Does It Display?
The EPS and Sales Magic Indicator V2 intelligently detects quarterly financial updates and displays the following data points via labels:
1. EPS (Earnings Per Share) – Current Quarterly Value
This is the most recent Diluted EPS published by the company, fetched using TradingView’s request.financial() function.
Displayed in the format: EPS: ₹20.45
2. EPS QoQ Percentage Change
Shows the percentage change in EPS compared to the previous quarter.
Highlights improvement or decline using arrows (up for improvement, down for decline).
Displayed in the format: EPS: ₹20.45 (up 15.3 percent)
3. Sales (Revenue) – Current Quarterly Value
Fetches and displays Total Revenue of the company in ₹Crores for easier Indian-market readability.
Displayed in the format: Sales: ₹460Cr
4. Sales QoQ Percentage Change
Measures and presents the quarter-over-quarter percentage change in total revenue.
Uses arrows to indicate growth or contraction.
Displayed in the format: Sales: ₹460Cr (down 3.8 percent)
5. EPS TTM (Trailing Twelve Months)
You now get the TTM EPS — the sum of the last four quarterly EPS values.
This value provides a better long-term earnings snapshot compared to a single quarter.
Displayed in the format: TTM EPS: ₹78.12
All of these values are automatically calculated and displayed only on the bars where a new financial report is detected, keeping your chart clean and insightful.
Customization Features
This indicator is built with user control in mind, allowing you to personalize how and what you want to see:
Show EPS in Label: Enable or disable the display of EPS and EPS QoQ values.
Show Sales in Label: Toggle the visibility of revenue and sales change percentage.
Color Options for Label Themes: The label background color is automatically determined based on performance.
Green: Both EPS and Sales increased QoQ.
Red: Both decreased.
Orange: One increased and the other decreased.
Gray: Default color (if values are unavailable or mixed).
Label Text Size: Choose from Tiny, Small (default), or Normal.
Visual Design
Placement: The labels are positioned just below the candlesticks using yloc.belowbar, so they do not obstruct price action or interfere with technical indicators.
Anchor: Aligned precisely with the financial reporting bars to maintain clarity in historical comparisons.
Background Style: Clean, semi-transparent styling with soft text colors for comfortable viewing.
How It Works
The indicator relies on TradingView’s powerful request.financial() function to extract fiscal quarterly financials (FQ). Internally, it uses detection logic to identify fresh data updates by comparing current vs. previous values, arithmetic to compute QoQ percentage changes in EPS and Sales, logic to build formatted labels dynamically based on user selections, and conditional color and sizing logic to enhance interpretability.
Use Cases
For Long-Term Investors: Quickly identify if a company’s profitability and revenue are improving over time.
For Swing Traders: Combine recent earnings trends with price action to evaluate if post-result momentum has real backing.
For Technical and Fundamental Traders: Layer it with moving averages, RSI, or volume to create a hybrid analysis environment.
Limitations and Notes
Financial data is provided by TradingView’s financial API, and occasional missing values may occur for less-covered stocks.
This tool does not repaint but depends on the timing of the official financial updates.
All values are rounded and formatted to prioritize readability.
Works best on Daily or higher timeframes (weekly or monthly also supported).

Educational
Price-EMA Z-Score Backgroundhe “Price‑to‑EMA Z‑Score Background” indicator is designed to give you a clear, visual sense of when price has moved unusually far away from its smoothed trend, and to highlight those moments as potential overextension or mean‑reversion opportunities. Under the hood, it first computes a standard exponential moving average (EMA) of your chosen lookback length, then measures the raw difference between the current close and that EMA on every bar. To make that raw deviation comparable across different markets and timeframes, it converts the series of differences into a z‑score—subtracting the rolling mean of the deviations and dividing by their rolling standard deviation over a second lookback window.
Once you’ve normalized price‑to‑EMA distance into z‑score units, you can set two simple trigger levels: one upper threshold and one lower threshold. Whenever the z‑score climbs above the upper threshold, the chart background glows green, signaling that price is extended far above its EMA (and might be ripe for a pullback). Whenever the z‑score falls below the lower threshold, the background turns red, calling out an equally extreme move below the EMA (and a possible oversold bounce). Between those bands, no shading appears, letting you know price is trading within its “normal” range around the trend.
By adjusting the EMA period, the z‑score lookback, and the two trigger levels, you can dial in early warning signals (e.g. ±1 σ) or wait for very stretched moves (±2 σ or more). Used in concert with your favorite momentum or pattern tools—or even as a standalone visual cue—this simple background‑shading approach makes it easy to spot when a market is running too hot or too cold relative to its own recent average.
Yield Curve Regime Shading with LegendTakes two symbols (e.g. two futures contracts, two FX pairs, etc.) as inputs.
Calculates the “regime” as the sign of the change in their difference over an n‑period lookback.
Lets you choose whether you want to color the bars themselves or shade the background.
How it works
Inputs
symbolA, symbolB: the two tickers you’re comparing.
n: lookback in bars to measure the change in the spread.
mode: pick between “Shading” or “Candle Color”.
Data fetching
We use request.security() to pull each series at the chart’s timeframe.
Regime calculation
spread = priceA – priceB
spreadPrev = ta.valuewhen(not na(spread), spread , 0) (i.e. the spread n bars ago)
If spread > spreadPrev → bullish regime
If spread < spreadPrev → bearish regime
Plotting
Shading: apply bgcolor() in green/red.
Candle Color: use barcolor() to override the bar color.
ICT Setup 04 [TradingFinder] SFP Sweep Liquidity Fake CHoCH/BOS🔵 Introduction
In smart money and ICT based trading, liquidity is never random. Some of the most meaningful market moves begin with a liquidity sweep where price intentionally hunts a previous swing high or swing low to trigger stop loss orders and absorb volume.
This manipulation is often followed by a sharp reversal from a reaction zone, creating ideal conditions for a high probability entry. This indicator is built to detect exactly that. It identifies a valid swing point and defines a reaction zone where price is likely to react.
For short setups, the zone lies between the swing high and the maximum of the candle’s open or close. For long setups, it’s drawn from the swing low to the minimum of the open or close.
When price returns to this zone and forms a qualified confirmation candle typically a doji or a small bodied candle that closes inside the zone while sweeping the liquidity this is a potential sign of reversal.
The candle must show both the sweep and the inability to hold above or below the key level, signaling a fake breakout or failed move. By combining elements of liquidity hunt, reaction zone rejection, and candle based entry confirmation, this tool highlights sniper entry points used by smart money to trap retail traders and reverse the trend. It helps filter out noise and enhances timing, making it ideal for trading in alignment with institutional order flow.
Long Position :
Short Position :
🔵 How to Use
This indicator is designed to highlight precise moments where price sweeps liquidity and reacts within a high probability reversal zone. By identifying clean swing highs and lows and defining a smart reaction zone around them, it filters out weak fakeouts and focuses only on setups with strong institutional footprints.
The tool works best when combined with market structure analysis and is suitable for both scalping and intraday trading. Below is a breakdown of how to interpret the signals for long and short positions based on the visual setups provided.
🟣 Long Setup
In a long setup, the indicator first detects a valid swing low where liquidity has likely accumulated below. A reaction zone is then drawn between the swing low and the minimum of the open or close of the swing candle.
When price returns to this zone, it must sweep the previous low and form a precise confirmation candle, such as a doji or a small bodied candle, that closes inside the zone. This candle must also reject the lower level, showing failure to continue downward.
As shown in the chart, once the liquidity grab is complete and the confirmation candle forms, a clean long signal is issued, indicating a potential bullish reversal backed by smart money behavior.
🟣 Short Setup
In a short setup, the indicator identifies a swing high where buy-side liquidity is resting. It then constructs a reaction zone between the high and the maximum of the open or close of the swing candle. Price must return to this zone, sweep the swing high, and form a bearish confirmation candle inside the zone.
A classic example is a doji or rejection candle that traps breakout buyers and fails to hold above the previous high. In the provided chart, the price aggressively hunts the liquidity above the swing high, but the close within the reaction zone signals exhaustion, prompting a short signal with high reversal probability.
These setups represent moments where price action, liquidity behavior, and candle structure align to offer strong entries. By focusing on clean sweeps and reactive confirmations, the indicator helps traders stay on the side of smart money and avoid common breakout traps.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Logical settings

Max Swing Back : You can set the number of swings that will go back for checking.
Maximum Distance Between Swing and Signal :The maximum number of candles allowed between the swing point and the potential signal. The default value is 50, ensuring that only recent and relevant price reactions are considered valid.
🟣 Display settings
Displaying or not displaying swings and setting the color of labels and lines.
🟣 Alert Settings
Alert SFP : Enables alerts for Swing Failure Pattern.
Message Frequency : Determines the frequency of alerts. Options include 'All' (every function call), 'Once Per Bar' (first call within the bar), and 'Once Per Bar Close' (final script execution of the real-time bar). Default is 'Once per Bar'.
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : Configures the time zone for alert messages. Default is 'UTC'.
🔵 Conclusion
This indicator is built for traders who rely on liquidity driven setups and smart money principles. By combining swing structure analysis with precision reaction zones and strict entry confirmation, it isolates the exact moments where price sweeps liquidity and fails to continue. These are high value points where institutional activity often reveals itself, and retail traps unfold.
Unlike generic breakout tools, this script focuses on quality over quantity by requiring both a sweep of a swing high or low and a confirmed rejection candle that closes inside a predefined zone. With customizable swing depth, proximity filters, visual highlights, and alert functions, it offers a complete framework for identifying and acting on fake breakouts with confidence. Whether you trade forex, crypto, or indices, this tool enhances your ability to align with true order flow and take entries where liquidity is most likely to shift.

Initial balance - weeklyWeekly Initial Balance (IB) — Indicator Description
The Weekly Initial Balance (IB) is the price range (High–Low) established during the week’s first trading session (most commonly Monday). You can measure it over the entire day or just the first X hours (e.g. 60 or 120 minutes). Once that session ends, the IB High and IB Low define the key levels where the initial weekly range formed.
Why Measure the Weekly IB?
Week-Opening Sentiment:
Monday’s range often sets the tone for the rest of the week. Trading above the IB High signals bullish control; trading below the IB Low signals bearish control.
Key Liquidity Zones:
Large institutions tend to place orders around these extremes, so you’ll frequently see tests, breakouts, or rejections at these levels.
Support & Resistance:
The IB High and IB Low become natural barriers. Price will often return to them, bounce off them, or break through them—ideal spots for entries and exits.
Volatility Forecast:
The width of the IB (High minus Low) indicates whether to expect a volatile week (wide IB) or a quieter one (narrow IB).
Significance of IB Levels
Breakout:
A clear break above the IB High (for longs) or below the IB Low (for shorts) can ignite a strong trending move.
Fade:
A rejection off the IB High/Low during low momentum (e.g. low volume or pin-bar formations) offers a high-probability reversal trade.
Mid-Point:
The 50% level of the IB range often “magnetizes” price back to it, providing entry points for continuation or reversal strategies.
Three Core Monday IB Strategies
A. Breakout (Open-Range Breakout)
Entry: Wait for 1–2 candles (e.g. 5-minute) to close above IB High (long) or below IB Low (short).
Stop-Loss: A few pips below IB High (long) or above IB Low (short).
Profit-Target: 2–3× your risk (Reward:Risk ≥ 2:1).
Best When: You spot a clear impulse—such as a strong pre-open volume spike or news-driven move.
B. Fade (Reversal at Extremes)
Entry: When price tests IB High but shows weakening momentum (shrinking volume, upper-wick candles), enter short; vice versa for IB Low and longs.
Stop-Loss: Just beyond the IB extreme you’re fading.
Profit-Target: Back toward the IB mid-point (50% level) or all the way to the opposite IB extreme.
Best When: Monday’s action is range-bound and lacks a clear directional trend.
C. Mid-Point Trading
Entry: When price returns to the 50% level of the IB range.
In an up-trend: buy if it bounces off mid-point back toward IB High.
In a down-trend: sell if it reverses off mid-point back toward IB Low.
Stop-Loss: Just below the nearest swing-low (for longs) or above the nearest swing-high (for shorts).
Profit-Target: To the corresponding IB extreme (High or Low).
Best When: You see a strong initial move away from the IB, followed by a pullback to the mid-point.
Usage Steps
Configure your session: Measure IB over your chosen Monday timeframe (whole day or first X hours).
Choose your strategy: Align Breakout, Fade, or Mid-Point entries with the current market context (trend vs. range).
Manage risk: Keep risk per trade ≤ 1% of account and maintain at least a 2:1 Reward:Risk ratio.
Backtest & forward-test: Verify performance over multiple Mondays and in a paper-trading environment before going live.

80% Rule Indicator (ETH Session + SVP Prior Session)I created this script to show the 80% opportunity on chart if setting lines up.
"80% rule: Open outside the vah or Val. Spend 30 mins outside there then break back inside spend 15 mins below or above depending which way u broke. Then come back and retest the vah/val and take it to the poc as a first target with the final target being the other Val/vah "
📌 Script Summary
The "80% Rule Indicator (ETH Session + SVP Prior Session)" overlays your chart with prior session value area levels (VAH, VAL, and POC) calculated from extended-hours 30-minute data. It tracks when the price reenters the value area and confirms 80% Rule setups during your chosen trading session. You can optionally trigger alerts, show/hide market sessions, and fine-tune line appearance for a clean, modular workflow.

Universal Sentiment Oscillator with Trade RecommendationsUniversal Sentiment Oscillator & Strategy Guide
Summary
This all-in-one indicator is designed to be a comprehensive co-pilot for your trading journey. It moves beyond simple buy/sell signals by analyzing the underlying market sentiment and providing a dynamic, risk-assessed guide of potential trading strategies. Whether you're a novice learning the ropes or an expert seeking confirmation, this tool provides a structured framework for making smarter, more informed decisions in stocks, options, and futures.
How It Works
The core of the indicator is the Sentiment Oscillator, which calculates a score from -5 (Extremely Bearish) to +5 (Extremely Bullish) on every bar. This isn't just a single measurement; it's a weighted aggregate of several key technical conditions:
Trend Analysis: Price position relative to the 20, 50, and 200 EMAs.
Momentum Analysis: The current RSI value.
Hybrid Analysis: The state of the MACD and its signal line.
These factors are intelligently combined and normalized to produce a single, intuitive sentiment score, giving you an at-a-glance understanding of the market's pulse.
Core Features
Dynamic Trade Recommendation Table:
The informational heart of the indicator. This on-chart table provides a list of potential trades perfectly aligned with the current sentiment score.
Risk-Ranked Strategies:
All suggested trades are logically ordered by risk, helping you quickly identify strategies that match your comfort level.
Adjusted Trade Suggestions:
The indicator analyzes sentiment momentum (the score vs. its signal line) to provide proactive, forward-looking trade ideas based on where the market might be heading next.
Customizable Trading Styles:
Tell the indicator if you are a Conservative, Neutral, or Aggressive trader, and the "Adjusted Trade Suggestion" will automatically tailor its recommendations to your personal risk preference.
Context-Aware Futures Mode:
When viewing a futures contract, enable this mode to switch all recommendations from stock/options to futures-specific actions (e.g., "Cautious Long," "Monitor Range").
Predictive Sentiment Cone:
Visualize the potential short-term path of sentiment based on current momentum, helping you anticipate future conditions.
Fully Customizable:
Every parameter—from EMA lengths to trade filters—can be adjusted, allowing you to fine-tune the indicator to your exact specifications.
How to Use This Indicator
This tool is flexible and can be integrated into many trading systems. Here is a powerful, professional approach:
Top-Down Analysis (for Swing or Position Trading):
Establish the Trend: Start on the higher timeframes (Monthly, Weekly, Daily). Use the oscillator's color and score to define the dominant, long-term market sentiment. You only want to look for trades that align with this macro trend.
Refine the Entry: Drop down to the medium timeframes (4-Hour, 1-Hour). Wait for the sentiment on these charts to come into alignment with the higher-timeframe trend. This pullback or consolidation is your "zone of interest."
Pinpoint the Execution: Move to a lower timeframe (e.g., 15-Minute). Use the Adjusted Trade Suggestion and Sentiment Momentum to find a precise entry as momentum begins to shift back in the direction of the primary trend. You can set alerts on the oscillator's zero-line for early warnings of a sentiment shift.
As a Confirmation Tool: If you have an existing trade idea, use the indicator to validate it. Does the sentiment score align with your bullish or bearish thesis? Does the momentum confirm that now is a good time to enter?
As an Idea Generation Tool: Unsure what to trade? Browse different assets and let the indicator's "Primary Trades" and "Adjusted Trade Suggestion" present you with a list of risk-assessed ideas that you can then investigate further.
Disclaimer: This is an analysis tool and should not be considered financial advice. All forms of trading involve substantial risk. You should not trade with money you cannot afford to lose. Always perform your own due diligence and use this indicator as one component of a complete trading plan.
Super MTF Clouds (4x3 Pairs)Overview:
This script is based on Ripster's MTF clouds, which transcends the standard moving average cloud indicator by offering a powerful and deeply customizable Multi-Timeframe (MTF) analysis. Instead of being limited to the moving averages of your current charts from the current timeframe, this tool allows you to project and visualize the trend and key support/resistance zones from up to 4 different timeframes simultaneously. User can input up to 6 different EMA values which will form 3 pairs of EMA clouds, for each of the timeframes.
The primary purpose is to provide traders with immediate confluence. By observing how price interacts with moving average clouds from higher timeframes (e.g., Hourly, Daily, Weekly), you can make more informed decisions on your active trading timeframe (e.g., 10 Minute). It's designed as a complete MTF Cloud toolkit, allowing you to display all necessary MTFs in a single script to build a comprehensive view of the market structure without having to flick to different timeframe to look for cloud positions.
Key features:
Four Independent Multi-Timeframe Slots: Each slot can be assigned any timeframe available on TradingView (e.g., D, W, M, 4H).
Three MA Pairs Per Timeframe: For each timeframe, configure up to three separate MA clouds (e.g., a 9/12 EMA pair, a 20/50 EMA pair, and a 100/200 SMA pair).
Complete Customisation: For every single moving average (24 in total), you can independently control:
MA Type: Choose between EMA or SMA.
Length: Any period you require.
Line Color: Full colour selection.
Line Thickness: Adjust the visual weight of each line.
Cloud Control: For every pair (12 in total), you can set the fill colour and transparency.
How To Use This Script:
This tool is best used for confirmation and context. Here are some practical strategies that one can adopt:
Trend Confluence: Before taking a trade based on a signal on your current timeframe, glance at the higher timeframe clouds. If you see a buy signal on the 15-minute chart and the price is currently trading above a thick, bullish Daily cloud, the probability of that trade succeeding is significantly higher. Conversely, shorting into strong HTF support is a low-probability trade.
Dynamic Support & Resistance: The edges of the higher timeframe clouds often act as powerful, dynamic levels of support and resistance. A pullback to the 4-Hour 50 EMA on your 15-minute chart can be a prime area to look for entries in the direction of the larger trend.
Gauging Market Regimes: Use the toggles in the settings to quickly switch between different views. You can have a "risk-on" view with short-term clouds and a "macro" view with weekly and monthly clouds. This helps you adapt your trading style to the current market conditions.
Key Settings:
1. Global Setting
Source For All MAs: This determines the price data point used for every single moving average calculation.
Default: hl2 (an average of the High and Low of each bar). This gives a smooth midpoint price.
Options: You can change this to Close (the most common method), Open, High, Low, or ohlc4 (an average of the open, high, low, and close), among others.
Recommendation: For most standard trend analysis, the default hl2 is the common choice.
2. The Timeframe Group Structure
The rest of the settings are organized into four identical, collapsible groups: "Timeframe 1 Settings" through "Timeframe 4 Settings". Each group acts as a self-contained control panel for one multi-timeframe view.
Within each timeframe group, you have two master controls:
Enable Timeframe: This is the main power switch for the entire group. Uncheck this box to instantly hide all three clouds and lines associated with this timeframe. This is perfect for quickly decluttering your chart or focusing on a different set of analyses.
Timeframe: This dropdown menu is the heart of the MTF feature. Here, you select the higher timeframe you want to analyse (e.g., 1D for Daily, 1W for Weekly, 4H for 4-Hour). All calculations for the three pairs within this group will be based on the timeframe you select here.
3. Pair-Specific Controls
Inside each timeframe group, there are three sections for "Pair 1", "Pair 2", and "Pair 3". These control each individual moving average cloud.
Enable Pair: Just like the master switch for the timeframe, this checkbox turns a single cloud and its two MA lines on or off.
For each pair, the settings are further broken down:
Moving Average Lines (A and B): These two rows control the two moving averages that form the cloud. 'A' is typically used for the shorter-period MA and 'B' for the longer-period one.
Type (A/B): A dropdown menu to select either EMA (Exponential Moving Average) or SMA (Simple Moving Average). EMAs react more quickly to recent price changes, while SMAs are smoother and react more slowly.
Length (A/B): The lookback period for the moving average (e.g., 21, 50, 200).
Color (A/B): Sets the specific colour of the MA line itself on your chart.
Cloud Fill Settings
Fill Color: This controls the colour of the shaded area (the "cloud") between the two moving average lines. For a consistent look, you can set this to the same colour as your shorter MA line.
Transparency: Controls how see-through the cloud is, on a scale of 0 to 100. 0 is a solid, opaque colour, while 100 is completely invisible. The default of 85 provides a light, "cloud-like" appearance that doesn't obscure the price action.

Allows the M2 signal to lead benchmark asset price by a configurable number of days (Lag Offset), useful for modeling the forward-looking nature of macro flows.
Gradient Macro Context (Background):
Displays a color-gradient background—aqua for expansionary liquidity, fuchsia for contraction—based on the slope and volatility of M2. This contextual backdrop helps users visually anchor price action within macro shifts.
Divergence Histogram (Optional):
Plots a histogram showing dynamic correlation or divergence between the liquidity index and the selected benchmark.
Agreement Mode: M2 and asset are moving together.
Divergence Mode: Highlights break in expected macro-asset alignment.
Adaptive Transparency Scaling:
Histogram and background gradients scale their visual intensity based on statistical deviation to emphasize stronger signals.
Toggle Options:
Show/hide the M2 Liquidity Index line.
Show/hide divergence histogram.
Enable/disable visual offset of M2 to benchmark.
🧠 Suggested Usage
Macro Positioning: Use the background context to align directional trades with macro liquidity flows.
Disagreement as Signal: Use divergence plots to identify when price moves against macro expectations—potential reversal or exhaustion zones.
Time-Based Alignment: Adjust Lag Offset to synchronize M2 signals with asset price behavior across different market conditions.

Ticker Pulse Meter BasicPairs nicely with the Contrarian 100 MA located here:
and the Enhanced Stock Ticker with 50MA vs 200MA located here:
Description
The Ticker Pulse Meter Basic is a dynamic Pine Script v6 indicator designed to provide traders with a visual representation of a stock’s price position relative to its short-term and long-term ranges, enabling clear entry and exit signals for long-only trading strategies. By calculating three normalized metrics—Percent Above Long & Above Short, Percent Above Long & Below Short, and Percent Below Long & Below Short—this indicator offers a unique "pulse" of market sentiment, plotted as stacked area charts in a separate pane. With customizable lookback periods, thresholds, and signal plotting options, it empowers traders to identify optimal entry points and profit-taking levels. The indicator leverages Pine Script’s force_overlay feature to plot signals on either the main price chart or the indicator pane, making it versatile for various trading styles.
Key Features
Pulse Meter Metrics:
Computes three percentages based on short-term (default: 50 bars) and long-term (default: 200 bars) lookback periods:
Percent Above Long & Above Short: Measures price strength when above both short and long ranges (green area).
Percent Above Long & Below Short: Indicates mixed momentum (orange area).
Percent Below Long & Below Short: Signals weakness when below both ranges (red area).
Flexible Signal Plotting:
Toggle between plotting entry (blue dots) and exit (white dots) signals on the main price chart (location.abovebar/belowbar) or in the indicator pane (location.top/bottom) using the Plot Signals on Main Chart option.
Entry/Exit Logic:
Long Entry: Triggered when Percent Above Long & Above Short crosses above the high threshold (default: 20%) and Percent Below Long & Below Short is below the low threshold (default: 40%).
Long Exit: Triggered when Percent Above Long & Above Short crosses above the profit-taking level (default: 95%).
Visual Enhancements:
Plots stacked area charts with semi-transparent colors (green, orange, red) for intuitive trend analysis.
Displays threshold lines for entry (high/low) and profit-taking levels.
Includes a ticker and timeframe table in the top-right corner for quick reference.
Alert Conditions: Supports alerts for long entry and exit signals, integrable with TradingView’s alert system for automated trading.
Technical Innovation: Combines normalized price metrics with Pine Script v6’s force_overlay for seamless signal integration on the price chart or indicator pane.
Technical Details
Calculation Logic:
Uses confirmed bars (barstate.isconfirmed) to calculate metrics, ensuring reliability.
Short-term percentage: (close - lowest(low, lookback_short)) / (highest(high, lookback_short) - lowest(low, lookback_short)).
Long-term percentage: (close - lowest(low, lookback_long)) / (highest(high, lookback_long) - lowest(low, lookback_long)).
Derived metrics:
pct_above_long_above_short = (pct_above_long * pct_above_short) * 100.
pct_above_long_below_short = (pct_above_long * (1 - pct_above_short)) * 100.
pct_below_long_below_short = ((1 - pct_above_long) * (1 - pct_above_short)) * 100.
Signal Plotting:
Entry signals (long_entry) use ta.crossover to detect when pct_above_long_above_short crosses above entryThresholdhigh and pct_below_long_below_short is below entryThresholdlow.
Exit signals (long_exit) use ta.crossover for pct_above_long_above_short crossing above profitTake.
Signals are plotted as tiny circles with force_overlay=true for main chart or standard plotting for the indicator pane.
Performance Considerations: Optimized for efficiency by calculating metrics only on confirmed bars and using lightweight plotting functions.

M2 Growth Rate vs Borrowing RateHave you ever wondered how fast M2 is actually growing? Have you ever wanted to compare its percentage growth rate to the actual cost of borrowing? Are you also, like me, a giant nerd with too much time on your hands?
M2 Growth Rate vs Borrowing Rate
This Pine Script indicator analyzes the annualized growth rate of M2 money supply and compares it to key borrowing rates, providing insights into the relationship between money supply expansion and borrowing costs. Users can select between US M2 or a combined M2 (aggregating US, EU, China, Japan, and UK money supplies, adjusted for currency exchange rates). The M2 growth period is customizable, offering options from 1 month to 5 years for flexible analysis over different time horizons. The indicator fetches monthly data for US M2, EU M2, China M2, Japan M2, UK M2, and exchange rates (EURUSD, CNYUSD, JPYUSD, GBPUSD) to compute the combined M2 in USD terms.
It plots the annualized M2 growth rate alongside borrowing rates, including US 2-year and 10-year Treasury yields, corporate bond effective yield, high-yield bond effective yield, and 30-year US mortgage rates. Borrowing rates are color-coded for clarity: red if the rate exceeds the selected M2 growth rate, and green if below, highlighting relative dynamics. Displayed on a separate pane with a zero line for reference, the indicator includes labeled plots for easy identification.
This tool is designed for informational purposes, offering a visual framework to explore economic trends without providing trading signals or financial advice.
Timeframe LoopThe Timeframe Loop publication aims to visualize intrabar price progression in a new, different way.
🔶 CONCEPTS and USAGE
I got inspiration from the Pressure/Volume loop, which is used in Mechanical Ventilation with Critical Care patients to visualize pressure/volume evolution during inhalation/exhalation.
The main idea is that intrabar prices are visualized by a loop, going to the right during the first half and returning to the left towards its closing point. Here, the main chart timeframe (CTF) is 4 hours, and we see the movements of eight 30-minute lower timeframe (LTF) periods, highlighted by four yellow dots/lines (first 2 hours -> "Right") and four blue dots/lines (last 2 hours <- "Left"):
🔹 BTF
If "Show Lowest TF" is enabled, the LTF is split into another lower TF (BTF - "Base TF"); in this case, the 30-minute LTF is split into 10 parts of 3 minutes (BTF):
Enabling "Loop Lowest TF" will enable the BTF to react similarly to the largest loop; from halfway, it will return to its startpoint:
Here is a more detailed example:
🔹 Mini-Candles
The included option "Mini-Candles" will bring even more detail, showing the LTF as Japanese candlesticks with user-defined colors and adjustable body width; in this example, the mini-candles associated with the first half (yellow lines/dots) are green/red, while blue/fuchsia in the second half (blue lines/dots):
CTF 10 minutes, LTF 1 minute, BTF 5 seconds
One can see the detailed intrabar price progression in one glance.
CTF 5 minutes, LTF 1 minute, BTF 5 seconds
If the LTF/BTF ratio, divided by two, results in a non-integer number, the right side will be a vertical line instead of just a turning point. In that case, the smaller, most right blue loop will be situated at the right of that line.
10 minutes / 1 minute = 10 -> 10 / 2 = 5 parts
5 minutes / 1 minute = 5 -> 5 / 2 = 2.5 parts
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Timeframes
Lower Timeframe 1
Lower Timeframe 2
No need to worry about the order of both timeframes; BTF will be the lowest TF of the 2, LTF the highest; both have to be lower than the main chart TF (CTF); otherwise, it will result in the error: "`Lower Timeframes` should be lower than current chart timeframe".
The ratio LTF / BTF should be equal or higher than 2; otherwise, this error will show: "`Lower Timeframe` should minimally be twice the `Base (smallest) Timeframe`"
Lastly, the ratio CTF / BTF should be lower than 500; otherwise, this error will pop up: "`Current Chart timeframe` / `Lower Timeframe` should be less than 500."
I have tried to capture runtime errors as best I could. If one should be triggered (red exclamation mark next to the title), it is best to increase the lowest TF.
🔹 Options
Show Lowest TF: Show BTF progression.
Loop Lowest TF: Enabling will let the BTF line return halfway.
Show Mini-Candles
Show Steps

BTC Dominance Zones (For Altseason)Overview
The "BTC Dominance Zones (For Altseason)" indicator is a visual tool designed to help traders navigate the different phases of the altcoin market cycle by tracking Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D).
It provides clear, color-coded zones directly on the BTC.D chart, offering an intuitive roadmap for the progression of alt season.
Purpose & Problem Solved
Many traders often miss altcoin rotations or get caught at market tops due to emotional decision-making or a lack of a clear framework. This indicator aims to solve that problem by providing an objective, historically informed guide based on Bitcoin Dominance, helping users to prepare before the market makes its decisive moves. It distils complex market dynamics into easily digestible sections.
Key Features & Components
Color-Coded Horizontal Zones: The indicator draws fixed horizontal bands on the BTC.D chart, each representing a distinct phase of the altcoin market cycle.
Descriptive Labels: Each zone is clearly labeled with its strategic meaning (e.g., "Alts are dead," "Danger Zone") and the corresponding BTC.D percentage range, positioned to the right of the price action for clarity.
Consistent Aesthetics: All text within the labels is rendered in white for optimal visibility across the colored zones.
Symbol Restriction: The indicator includes an automatic check to ensure it only draws its visuals when applied specifically to the CRYPTOCAP:BTC.D chart. If applied to another chart, it displays a helpful message and remains invisible to prevent confusion.
Methodology & Interpretation
The indicator's methodology is based on the historical behavior of Bitcoin Dominance during various market cycles, particularly the 2021 bull run. Each zone provides a specific interpretation for altcoin strategy:
Grey Zone (BTC.D 60-70%+): "Alts Are Dead"
Interpretation: When Bitcoin Dominance is in this grey zone (typically above 60%), Bitcoin is king, and capital remains concentrated in BTC. This indicates that alt season is largely inactive or "dead". This phase is generally not conducive for aggressive altcoin trading.
Blue Zone (BTC.D 55-60%): "Alt Season Loading"
Interpretation: As BTC.D drops into this blue zone (below 60%), it signals that the market is "heating up" for altcoins. This is the time to start planning and executing your initial positions in high-conviction large-cap and strong narrative plays, as capital begins to look for more risk.
Green Zone (BTC.D 50-55%): "Alt Season Underway"
Interpretation: Entering this green zone (below 55%) signifies that "real momentum" is building, and alt season is genuinely "underway". Money is actively flowing from Ethereum into large and mid-cap altcoins. If you've positioned correctly, your portfolio should be showing strong gains in this phase.
Orange Zone (BTC.D 45-50%): "Alt Season Ending"
Interpretation: As BTC.D dips into this orange zone (below 50%), it suggests that altcoin dominance is reaching its peak, indicating the "ending" phase of alt season. While euphoria might be high, this is a critical warning zone to prepare for profit-taking, as it's a phase of "peak risk".
Red Zone (BTC.D Below 45%): "Danger Zone - Alts Overheated"
Interpretation: This red zone (below 45%) is the most critical "DANGER ZONE". It historically marks the point of maximum froth and risk, where altcoins are overheated. This is the decisive signal to aggressively take profits, de-risk, and exit positions to preserve your capital before a potential sharp correction. Historically, dominance has gone as low as 39-40% in this phase.
How to Use

Timeframe Resistance Evaluation And Detection - CoffeeKillerTREAD - Timeframe Resistance Evaluation And Detection Guide
🔔 Important Technical Limitation 🔔
**This indicator does NOT fetch true higher timeframe data.** Instead, it simulates higher timeframe levels by aggregating data from your current chart timeframe. This means:
- Results will vary depending on what chart timeframe you're viewing
- Levels may not match actual higher timeframe candle highs/lows
- You might miss important wicks or gaps that occurred between chart timeframe bars
- **Always verify levels against actual higher timeframe charts before trading**
Welcome traders! This guide will walk you through the TREAD (Timeframe Resistance Evaluation And Detection) indicator, a multi-timeframe analysis tool developed by CoffeeKiller that identifies support and resistance confluence across different time periods.(I am 50+ year old trader and always thought I was bad a teaching and explaining so you get a AI guide. I personally use this on the 5 minute chart with the default settings, but to each there own and if you can improve the trend detection methods please DM me. I would like to see the code. Thanks)

Technical Implementation Details
How Level Tracking Works
The indicator uses a custom tracking function that:
1. Detects Timeframe Periods: Uses `time()` function to identify when new periods begin
2. Tracks Extremes: Monitors highest/lowest values within each period
3. Resets on New Periods: Clears tracking when timeframe periods change
4. Updates Mid-Period: Continues tracking if new extremes are reached
The Timeframe Limitation Explained
`pinescript
// What the indicator does:
short_tf_start = ta.change(time(short_timeframe)) != 0 // Detects 30m period start
= track_highest(open, short_tf_start) // BUT uses chart TF opens!
// What true multi-timeframe would be:
// short_tf_high = request.security(syminfo.tickerid, short_timeframe, high)
`
This means:
- On a 5m chart with 30m/4h settings: Tracks 5m bar opens during 30m and 4h windows
- On a 1m chart with same settings: Tracks 1m bar opens during 30m and 4h windows
- Results will be different between chart timeframes
- May miss important price action that occurred between your chart's bars
Visual Elements
1. Level Lines
- Short TF High: Upper resistance line from shorter timeframe analysis
- Short TF Low: Lower support line from shorter timeframe analysis
- Long TF High: Broader resistance context from longer timeframe
- Long TF Low: Broader support context from longer timeframe
2. Zone Fills
- High Zone: Area between long TF high and short TF high (potential resistance cluster)
- Low Zone: Area between long TF low and short TF low (potential support cluster)
- Regular Fill: Standard transparency when levels are static
- Momentum Fill: Enhanced visibility when levels are actively changing
3. Dynamic Coloring
- Static Periods: Normal colors when levels haven't changed recently
- Active Periods: Momentum colors when levels are being tested/broken
- Confluence Zones: Different intensities based on timeframe alignment
Trading Applications
1. Support/Resistance Trading
- Entry Points: Trade bounces from zone boundaries
- Confluence Areas: Focus on areas where short and long TF levels cluster
- Zone Breaks: Enter on confirmed breaks through entire zones
- Multiple Timeframe Confirmation: Stronger signals when both timeframes align
2. Range Trading
- Zone Boundaries: Use fill zones as range extremes
- Mean Reversion: Trade back toward opposite zone when price reaches extremes
- Breakout Preparation: Watch for momentum color changes indicating potential breakouts
- Risk Management: Place stops outside the opposite zone
3. Trend Following
- Direction Bias: Trade in direction of zone breaks
- Pullback Entries: Enter on pullbacks to broken zones (now support/resistance)
- Momentum Confirmation: Use momentum coloring to confirm trend strength
- Multiple Timeframe Alignment: Strongest trends when both timeframes agree
4. Scalping Applications
- Quick Bounces: Trade rapid moves between zone boundaries
- Momentum Signals: Enter when momentum colors appear
- Short-Term Targets: Use opposite zone as profit target
- Tight Stops: Place stops just outside current zone
Optimization Guide
1. Timeframe Selection
For Different Trading Styles:
- Scalping: 15m/1h - Quick levels, frequent updates
- Day Trading: 30m/4h - Balanced view, good for intraday moves
- Swing Trading: 4h/1D - Longer-term perspective, fewer false signals
- Position Trading: 1D/1W - Major structural levels
2. Chart Timeframe Considerations
**Important**: Your chart timeframe affects results
- Lower Chart TF: More granular level tracking, but may be noisy
- Higher Chart TF: Smoother levels, but may miss important price action
- Recommended: Use chart timeframe 2-4x smaller than short indicator timeframe
3. Display Settings
- Busy Charts: Disable fills, show only key levels
- Clean Analysis: Enable all fills and momentum coloring
- Multi-Monitor Setup: Use different color schemes for easy identification
- Mobile Trading: Increase line width for visibility
Best Practices
1. Level Verification
- Always Cross-Check: Verify levels against actual higher timeframe charts
- Multiple Timeframes: Check 2-3 different chart timeframes for consistency
- Price Action Confirmation: Wait for candlestick confirmation at levels
- Volume Analysis: Combine with volume for stronger confirmation
2. Risk Management
- Stop Placement: Use zones rather than exact prices for stops
- Position Sizing: Reduce size when zones are narrow (higher risk)
- Multiple Targets: Scale out at different zone boundaries
- False Break Protection: Allow for minor zone penetrations
3. Signal Quality Assessment
- Momentum Colors: Higher probability when momentum coloring appears
- Zone Width: Wider zones often provide stronger support/resistance
- Historical Testing: Backtest on your preferred timeframe combinations
- Market Conditions: Adjust sensitivity based on volatility
Advanced Features
1. Momentum Detection System
The indicator tracks when levels change mid-period:
`pinescript
short_high_changed = short_high != short_high and not short_tf_start
`
This identifies:
- Active level testing
- Potential breakout situations
- Increased market volatility
- Trend acceleration points
2. Dynamic Color System
Complex conditional logic determines fill colors:
- Static Zones: Regular transparency for stable levels
- Active Zones: Enhanced colors for changing levels
- Mixed States: Different combinations based on user preferences
- Custom Overrides: User can prioritize certain color schemes
3. Zone Interaction Analysis
- Convergence: When short and long TF levels approach each other
- Divergence: When timeframes show conflicting levels
- Alignment: When both timeframes agree on direction
- Transition: When one timeframe changes while other remains static
Common Issues and Solutions
1. Inconsistent Levels
Problem: Levels look different on various chart timeframes
Solution: Always verify against actual higher timeframe charts
2. Missing Price Action
Problem: Important wicks or gaps not reflected in levels
Solution: Use chart timeframe closer to indicator's short timeframe setting
3. Too Many Signals
Problem: Excessive level changes and momentum alerts
Solution: Increase timeframe settings or reduce chart timeframe granularity
4. Lagging Signals
Problem: Levels seem to update too slowly
Solution: Decrease chart timeframe or use more sensitive timeframe combinations
Recommended Setups
Conservative Approach
- Timeframes: 4h/1D
- Chart: 1h
- Display: Show fills only, no momentum coloring
- Use: Swing trading, position management
Aggressive Approach
- Timeframes: 15m/1h
- Chart: 5m
- Display: All features enabled, momentum highlighting
- Use: Scalping, quick reversal trades
Balanced Approach
- Timeframes: 30m/4h
- Chart: 15m
- Display: Selective fills, momentum on key levels
- Use: Day trading, multi-session analysis
Final Notes
**Remember**: This indicator provides a synthetic view of multi-timeframe levels, not true higher timeframe data. While useful for identifying potential confluence areas, always verify important levels by checking actual higher timeframe charts.
**Best Results When**:
- Combined with actual multi-timeframe analysis
- Used for confluence confirmation rather than primary signals
- Applied with proper risk management
- Verified against price action and volume
**DISCLAIMER**: This indicator and its signals are intended solely for educational and informational purposes. The timeframe limitation means results may not reflect true higher timeframe levels. Always conduct your own analysis and verify levels independently before making trading decisions. Trading involves significant risk of loss.
Consolidation Zones[RanaAlgo]Overview
This indicator helps traders identify price consolidation zones (ranges) and potential breakouts in the market. It is useful for spotting periods of low volatility before significant price movements.
How It Works
Detects Consolidation Zones
Uses the ADX (Average Directional Index) to determine when the market is in a consolidation phase .
When ADX is below the threshold , the indicator marks the start of a consolidation zone.
Draws a semi-transparent box around the price range, adjusting its height as new highs/lows form.
Tracks Breakouts
When price breaks above/below the consolidation box, it signals a potential trend continuation.
Displays breakout arrows/labels (configurable shape & style) when price exits the range.
Visual Features
Boxes highlight consolidation areas (customizable color, border, and style).
Labels show real-time status ("CONSOLIDATING" or "TRENDING").
Breakout signals appear as arrows or shapes (up/down).
Usefulness in Trading
Range Trading: Helps traders identify sideways markets for buying low and selling high.
Breakout Trading: Signals potential trend entries when price exits consolidation.
Trend Confirmation: Low ADX + consolidation box = weak trend; breakout = possible trend start.
Example: If price stays in a blue box (consolidation) and then breaks above with an arrow, it suggests a bullish move.
Anti-SMT + FVG SignalMade by Laila
Anti-SMT + FVG Strategy
A contrarian price-action strategy that combines SMT illusion with Fair Value Gap (FVG) confirmation and multiple filters.
Strategy Concept
This strategy challenges traditional SMT divergence logic. Instead of entering trades based on expected SMT divergence between correlated pairs (e.g., EURUSD and DXY), it assumes the divergence is false and will reverse. The concept is to take advantage of these false signals, also known as "SMT illusions."
To confirm the setup, the strategy integrates Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), which are price imbalances left unfilled between candle 1 and 3.
Anti-SMT Logic
Short Entry:
EURUSD makes a new high (Candle 1)
DXY does not make a new low
Long Entry:
EURUSD makes a new low (Candle 1)
DXY does not make a new high
This divergence is considered false, and the strategy expects a reversal.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Confirmation
A trade is only triggered if the price touches a Fair Value Gap during:
Candle 1 (the candle that forms the SMT illusion), or
Candle 2 (entry confirmation)
This helps avoid low-quality setups and increases entry precision.
Additional Filters
To improve robustness and prevent overfitting, the strategy includes:
EMA Trend Filter:
Long entries are allowed only if price is above the 50 EMA
Short entries are allowed only if price is below the 50 EMA
Time Filter:
Trades are only permitted between 08:00 and 18:00 UTC
Cooldown Filter:
A minimum of 10 candles between trades is required to prevent overtrading
Strategy Parameters and Defaults
Optimized for EURUSD on the 4-hour (4H) timeframe
Includes realistic commission and slippage
Uses conservative position sizing (e.g., 1% per trade)
Backtesting over hundreds of trades shows approximately 57% win rate under default conditions
These results are historical and do not guarantee future performance
Purpose and Value
This strategy offers a structured and logical approach to contrarian trading by:
Introducing the concept of false SMT divergence
Using price inefficiencies (FVGs) as confirmation
Filtering trades with realistic and widely accepted conditions
Encouraging quality over quantity through strict entry rules
It is not a simple mashup but a well-defined trading system that blends institutional concepts in a usable framework.
