Expansion Setup: Entries & structure + AlertsThis is a specific market condition often called a Broadening Formation or an Expansion Move, where volatility increases enough to break both the previous structural low and then immediately break the previous structural high (or vice versa).
1. LL to HH: A New Lower Low is formed, followed immediately by a New Higher High.
2. HH to LL: A New Higher High is formed, followed immediately by a New Lower Low.
3. Entry Levels: When a setup is detected (LL ➔ HH or HH ➔ LL), the script now draws two specific entry lines extending forward:
The "Breaker" Level: The previous structure point that was broken. (Often a safe retest entry).
The 50% Retracement: The midpoint of the expansion move (The "Equilibrium" or "Discount" entry).

Direction Bias [ Scalping-Algo ]======================================================================
// 📊 Direction Bias
// ======================================================================
//
// 🎯 What this indicator does:
// This indicator colors your candles based on the current market bias.
// 🟢 Green bars = bullish momentum
// 🔴 Red bars = bearish momentum
// ⚪ Gray bars = choppy or undecided market
//
// ⚙️ How it works:
// It uses a range filter that adapts to volatility. When price pushes
// above the filter and keeps moving up, you get green bars. When price
// drops below and continues down, you get red bars. The filter smooths
// out the noise so you don't get whipsawed on every little move.
//
// 📈 How to trade with it:
//
// 1️⃣ Follow the color
// 🟢 Green bars = look for longs only
// 🔴 Red bars = look for shorts only
// ⚪ Gray bars = stay out or reduce size
//
// 2️⃣ Entry timing
// ✅ Wait for color change from gray to green/red
// ✅ Enter on pullbacks while color stays the same
// ❌ Don't chase if you're late to the move
//
// 3️⃣ Exit signals
// 💡 When bars turn gray, tighten your stop or take profits
// 🔄 Color flip to opposite = close the trade
//
// 4️⃣ Best practices
// ⏱️ Works best on 1m to 15m charts for scalping
// 📍 Use with support/resistance levels for better entries
// 🚫 Don't trade against the color, even if you "feel" a reversal
// 📊 Combine with volume for confirmation
//
// 🔧 Settings:
// • Period: Higher = smoother but slower reaction (default 10)
// • Multiplier: Higher = less sensitive to small moves (default 4.0)
// • Adjust based on the asset you're trading
//
// 🔔 Alerts:
// Set alerts for "Bull" and "Bear" to get notified when bias changes.

VIXO - VIX OscillatorVIXO (VIX Oscillator) is a volatility oscillator built from the CBOE Volatility Index (symbol: TVC:VIX). It helps visualize volatility regime shifts by combining a smoothed VIX RSI with a normalized VIX momentum component, plus a VIX histogram that becomes more/less prominent depending on how far VIX is from its moving average. It helps you assess whether market conditions may be approaching rare but powerful squeeze phases.
WHAT THIS INDICATOR PLOTS
1) VIX RSI (cyan line)
- RSI is calculated on the VIX close and then smoothed (SMA) to reduce noise.
- Use it to observe short-term momentum in volatility rather than price.
2) VIX Normalized Momentum (gray line)
- Momentum is measured as ROC (rate of change) of the VIX close.
- That ROC is normalized to a 0–100 scale using a rolling lookback window:
- 50 is the midpoint of the recent momentum range (neutral within the selected window).
- Values near 0/100 indicate momentum near the low/high of that lookback window.
3) VIX Value Bars (histogram)
- Histogram shows the raw VIX value.
- Bar visibility is dynamically adjusted (transparency changes) based on the ratio of VIX to its 21-period SMA:
- When VIX is close to its MA, bars are more transparent.
- When VIX deviates more from its MA (within a capped range), bars become more visible.
- If VIX High is below 30, the script intentionally keeps bars fully transparent to reduce visual clutter.
LEVELS (REFERENCE ONLY)
The horizontal levels are visual guides to help segment oscillator zones. They are not guarantees and should not be treated as standalone trade signals:
- 80: “Panic of Market”
- 60: “VIX says BUY” (label only; not financial advice)
- 50: “Neutral / Momentum Mid”
- 40: “Get Ready”
HOW TO USE
- Apply VIXO to any chart. The indicator always pulls TVC:VIX data, regardless of the chart symbol.
- Typical interpretation:
- Rising VIX RSI and/or rising normalized momentum can indicate increasing volatility pressure.
- Falling readings can indicate volatility easing.
- Compare changes in VIXO with your chart’s price structure, trend filters, or risk management framework.
INPUTS
- RSI Length: RSI period on VIX close (smoothed afterward).
- Momentum Length: ROC period on VIX close.
- Momentum Normalization Lookback: window used to scale ROC into 0–100.
DATA & BEHAVIOR NOTES
- Data source: request.security("TVC:VIX", timeframe.period, OHLC).
- The script does not use lookahead to access future data.
- On realtime bars, values can update while the current bar is forming; historical bars remain fixed once closed.
- Availability of TVC:VIX data depends on your TradingView data access.
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER
This indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice. It does not predict the future, does not guarantee results, and should not be used as the sole basis for any trading decision. Always validate signals with additional analysis and use appropriate risk management.
VIX Expiration + Month Turn MarkersThis script mark the VIX option expiration dates and the turn on=f the month dates from 2021 to 2026
There can be increased volatility in the market at these dates or +- 3 days from those dates.
Daily Trend ScannerThis indicator tracks the input tickers (up to 20) and looks at the Previous Day High/Low and Premarket High/Low of the ticker.
If the price is above PDH and PMH the ticker will be displayed as bullish. If the price is below PDL and PML the ticker will be displayed as bearish.
You can track up to 20 tickers and select how many you want to display in the settings.
Adjust Premarket session time
Adjust Table size, position and font size

Market Regime | NY Session Killzones Indicator [ApexLegion]Market Regime | NY Session Killzones Indicator
Introduction and Theoretical Background
The Market Regime | NY Session Killzones indicator is designed exclusively for New York market hours (07:00-16:00 ET). Unlike universal indicators that attempt to function across disparate global sessions, this tool employs session-specific calibration to target the distinct liquidity characteristics of the NY trading day: Pre-Market structural formation (08:00-09:30), the Morning breakout window (09:30-12:00), and the Afternoon Killzone (13:30-16:00)—periods when institutional order flow exhibits the highest concentration and most definable technical structure. By restricting its operational scope to these statistically significant time windows, the indicator focuses on signal relevance while filtering the noise inherent in lower-liquidity overnight or extended-hours trading environments.
I. TECHNICAL RATIONALE: THE PRINCIPLE OF CONTEXTUAL FUSION
1. The Limitation of Acontextual Indicators
Traditional technical indicators often fail because they treat every bar and every market session equally, applying static thresholds (e.g., RSI > 70) without regard for the underlying market structure or liquidity environment. However, institutional volume and market volatility are highly dependent on the time of day (session) and the prevailing long-term risk environment.
This indicator was developed to address this "contextual deficit" by fusing three distinct yet interdependent analytical layers:
• Time and Structure (Macro): Identifying high-probability trading windows (Killzones) and critical structural levels (Pre-Market Range, PDH/PDL).
• Volatility and Scoring (Engine): Normalizing intraday momentum against annual volatility data to create an objective, statistically grounded AI Score.
• Risk Management (Execution): Implementing dynamic, volatility-adjusted Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) parameters based on the Average True Range (ATR).
2. The Mandate for 252-Day Normalization (Z-Score)
What makes this tool unique is its 252-day Z-Score normalization engine that transforms raw momentum readings into statistically grounded probability scores, allowing the same indicator to deliver consistent, context-aware signals across any timeframe—from 1-minute scalping to 1-hour swing trades—without manual recalibration.
THE PROBLEM OF SCALE INVARIANCE
A high Relative Strength Index (RSI) reading on a 1-minute chart has a completely different market implication than a high RSI reading on a Daily chart. Simple percentage-based thresholds (like 70 or 30) do not provide true contextual significance. A sudden spike in momentum may look extreme on a 5-minute chart, but if it is statistically insignificant compared to the overall volatility of the last year, it may be a poor signal.
THE SOLUTION: CROSS-TIMEFRAME Z-SCORE NORMALIZATION
This indicator utilizes the Pine Script function request.security to reference the Daily timeframe for calculating the mean (μ) and standard deviation (σ) of a momentum oscillator (RSI) over the past 252 trading days (one year).
The indicator then calculates the Z-Score (Z) for the current bar's raw momentum (x): Z = (x - μ) / σ
Core Implementation: float raw_rsi = ta.rsi(close, 14) // x
= request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "D",
, // σ (252 days)
lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on)
float cur_rsi_norm = d_rsi_std != 0 ? (raw_rsi - d_rsi_mean) / d_rsi_std : 0.0 // Z
This score provides an objective measurement of current intraday momentum significance by evaluating its statistical extremity against the yearly baseline of daily momentum. This standardized approach provides the scoring engine with consistent, global contextual information, independent of the chart's current viewing timeframe.
II. CORE COMPONENTS AND TECHNICAL ANALYSIS BREAKDOWN
1. TIME AND SESSION ANALYSIS (KILLZONES AND BIAS)
The indicator visually segments the trading day based on New York (NY) trading sessions, aligning the analysis with periods of high institutional liquidity events.
Pre-Market (PRE)
• Function: Defines the range before the core market opens. This range establishes structural support and resistance levels (PMH/PML).
• Technical Implementation: Uses a dedicated Session input (ny_pre_sess). The High and Low values (pm_h_val/pm_l_val) within this session are stored and plotted for structural reference.
• Smart Extension Logic: PMH/PML lines are automatically extended until the next Pre-Market session begins, providing continuous support/resistance references overnight.
NY Killzones (AM/PM)
• Function: Highlights high-probability volatility windows where institutional liquidity is expected to be highest (e.g., NY open, lunch, NY close).
• Technical Implementation: Separate session inputs (kz_ny_am, kz_ny_pm) are utilized to draw translucent background fills, providing a clear visual cue for timing.
Market Regime Bias
• Function: Determines the initial directional premise for the trading day. The bias is confirmed when the price breaks either the Pre-Market High (PMH) or the Pre-Market Low (PML).
• Technical Implementation: Involves the comparison of the close price against the predefined structural levels (check_h for PMH, check_l for PML). The variable active_bias is set to Bullish or Bearish upon confirmed breakout.
Trend Bar Coloring
• Function: Applies a visual cue to the bars based on the established regime (Bullish=Cyan, Bearish=Red). This visual filter helps mitigate noise from counter-trend candles.
• Technical Implementation: The Pine Script barcolor() function is tied directly to the value of the determined active_bias.
2. VOLATILITY NORMALIZED SCORING ENGINE
The internal scoring mechanism accumulates points from multiple market factors to determine the strength and validity of a signal. The purpose is to apply a robust filtering mechanism before generating an entry.
The score accumulation logic is based on the following factors:
• Market Bias Alignment (+3 Points): Points are awarded for conformance with the determined active_bias (Bullish/Bearish).
• VWAP Alignment (+2 Points): Assesses the position of the current price relative to the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP). Alignment suggests conformity with the average institutional transaction price.
• Volume Anomaly (+2 Points): Detects a price move accompanied by an abnormally high relative volume (odd_vol_spike). This suggests potential institutional participation or significant order flow.
• VIX Integration (+2 Points): A score derived from the CBOE VIX index, assessing overall market stability and stress. Stable VIX levels add points, while high VIX levels (stress regimes) remove points or prevent signal generation entirely.
• ML Probability Score (+3 Points): This is the core predictive engine. It utilizes a Log-Manhattan Distance Kernel to compare the current market state against historical volatility patterns. The script implements a Log-linear distance formula (log(1 + |Δ|) ). This approach mathematically dampens the impact of extreme volatility spikes (outliers), ensuring that the similarity score reflects true structural alignment rather than transient market noise.
Core Technical Logic (Z-Score Normalization)
float cur_rsi_norm = d_rsi_std != 0 ? (raw_rsi - d_rsi_mean) / d_rsi_std : 0.0
• Technical Purpose: This line calculates the Z-Score (cur_rsi_norm) of the current momentum oscillator reading (raw_rsi) by normalizing it against the mean (d_rsi_mean) and standard deviation (d_rsi_std) derived from 252 days of Daily momentum data. If the standard deviation is zero (market is perfectly flat), it safely returns 0.0 to prevent division by zero runtime errors. This allows the AI's probability score to be based on the current signal's significance within the context of the entire trading year.
3. EXECUTION AND RISK MANAGEMENT (ATR MODEL)
The indicator utilizes the Average True Range (ATR) volatility model. This helps risk management scale dynamically with market volatility by allowing users to define TP/SL distances independently based on the current ATR.
Stop Loss Multiplier (sl_mult)
• Function: Sets the Stop Loss (SL) distance as a configurable multiple of the current ATR (e.g., 1.5 × ATR).
• Technical Logic: The price level is calculated as: last_sl_price := close - (atr_val * sl_mult). The mathematical sign is reversed for short trades.
Take Profit Multiplier (tp_mult)
• Function: Sets the Take Profit (TP) distance as a configurable multiple of the current ATR (e.g., 3.0 × ATR).
• Technical Logic: The price level is calculated as: last_tp_price := close + (atr_val * tp_mult). The mathematical sign is reversed for short trades.
Structural SL Option
• Function: Provides an override to the ATR-based SL calculation. When enabled, it forces the Stop Loss to the Pre-Market High/Low (PMH/PML) level, aligning the stop with a key institutional structural boundary.
• Technical Logic: The indicator checks the use_struct_sl input. If true, the calculated last_sl_price is overridden with either pm_h_val or pm_l_val, dependent on the specific trade direction.
Trend Continuation Logic
• Function: Enables signal generation in established, strong trends (typically in the Afternoon session) based on follow-through momentum (a new high/low of the previous bar) combined with a high Signal Score, rather than exclusively relying on the initial PMH/PML breakout.
• Technical Logic: For a long signal, the is_cont_long logic specifically requires checks like active_bias == s_bull AND close > high , confirming follow-through momentum within the established regime.
Smart Snapping & Cleanup (16:00 Market Close)
• Function: To maintain chart cleanliness, all trade boxes (TP/SL), AI Prediction zones, Killzone overlays (NY AM/PM), and Liquidity lines (PDH/PDL) are automatically "snapped" and cut off precisely at 16:00 NY Time (Market Close).
• Technical Logic: When is_market_close condition is met (hour == 16 and minute == 0), the script executes cleanup logic that:
◦ Closes active trades and evaluates final P&L
◦ Snaps all TP/SL box widths to current bar
◦ Truncates AI Prediction ghost boxes at market close
◦ Cuts off NY AM/PM Killzone background fills
◦ Terminates PDH/PDL line extensions
◦ Prevents visual clutter from extending into post-market sessions
4. LIQUIDITY AND STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
The indicator plots key structural levels that serve as high-probability magnet zones or areas of potential liquidity absorption.
• Pre-Market High/Low (PMH/PML): These are the high and low established during the configured pre-market session (ny_pre_sess). They define the primary structural breakout level for the day, often serving as the initial market inflection point or the key entry level for the morning session.
• PDH (Previous Day High): The high of the calendar day immediately preceding the current bar. This represents a key Liquidity Pool; large orders are often placed above this level, making it a frequent target for stop hunts or liquidity absorption by market makers.
• PDL (Previous Day Low): The low of the calendar day immediately preceding the current bar. This also represents a key Liquidity Pool and a high-probability reversal or accumulation point, particularly during the Killzones.
FIFO Array Management
The indicator uses FIFO (First-In-First-Out) array structures to manage liquidity lines and labels, automatically deleting the oldest objects when the count exceeds 500 to comply with drawing object limits.
5. AI PREDICTION BOX (PREDICTIVE MODEL)
Function: Analyzes AI scores and volatility to project predicted killzone ranges and duration with asymmetric directional bias.
A. DIRECTIONAL BIAS (ASYMMETRIC EXPANSION)
The prediction model calculates directional probability using the ML kernel's 252-day Normalized RSI (Z-Score) and Relative Volume (RVOL). The prediction box dynamically adjusts its range based on this probability to provide immediate visual feedback on high-probability direction.
Bullish Scenario (ml_prob > 1.0):
• Upper Range: Expands significantly (1.5x multiplier) to show the aggressive upside target
• Lower Range: Tightens (0.5x multiplier) to show the invalidation level
• Visual Intent: The box is visibly skewed upward, immediately communicating bullish bias without requiring numerical analysis.
Bearish Scenario (ml_prob < -1.0):
• Upper Range: Tightens (0.5x multiplier) to show the invalidation level
• Lower Range: Expands significantly (1.5x multiplier) to show the aggressive downside target
• Visual Intent: The box is visibly skewed downward, immediately communicating bearish bias.
Neutral Scenario (-1.0 < ml_prob < 1.0):
Both ranges use balanced multipliers, creating a symmetrical box that indicates uncertainty.
B. DYNAMIC VOLATILITY BOOSTER (SESSION-BASED ADAPTATION)
The prediction box adjusts its volatility multiplier based on the current session and market conditions to account for intraday volatility patterns.
AM Session (Morning: 07:00-12:00):
• Base Multiplier: 1.0x (Neutral Base)
• Logic: Morning sessions often contain false breakouts and noise. The base multiplier starts neutral to avoid over-projecting during consolidation.
• Trend Booster: Multiplier jumps to 1.5x when:
Price > London Session Open AND AI is Bullish (ml_prob > 0), OR
Price < London Session Open AND AI is Bearish (ml_prob < 0)
• Logic: When the London trend (typically 03:00-08:00 NY time) aligns with the AI model's directional conviction, the indicator aggressively targets higher volatility expansion. This filters for "institutional follow-through" rather than random morning chop.
PM Session (Afternoon: 13:00-16:00):
• Fixed Multiplier: 1.8x
• Logic: The PM session, particularly the 13:30-16:00 ICT Silver Bullet window, often contains the "True Move" of the day. A higher baseline multiplier is applied to emphasize this session's significance over morning noise.
Safety Floor:
A minimum range of 0.2% of the current price is enforced regardless of volatility conditions.
• Purpose: Maintains the prediction box visibility during extreme low-volatility consolidation periods where ATR might collapse to near-zero values.
Volatility Clamp Protection:
Maximum volatility is capped at three times the current ATR value. During flash crashes, circuit breaker halts, or large overnight gaps, raw volatility calculations can spike to extreme levels. This clamp prevents prediction boxes from expanding to unrealistic widths.
Technical Implementation:
f_get_ai_multipliers(float _prob) =>
float _abs_prob = math.abs(_prob)
float _range_mult = 1.0
float _dur_mult = 1.0
if _abs_prob > 30

C. PRACTICAL INTERPRETATION
• Wide Upper Range + Tight Lower Range: Strong bullish conviction. The model expects significant upside with limited downside risk.
• Tight Upper Range + Wide Lower Range: Strong bearish conviction. The model expects significant downside with limited upside.
• Symmetrical Range: Neutral/uncertain market. Wait for directional confirmation before entry.
• Large Box (Extended Duration): High-confidence prediction expecting sustained movement.
• Small Box (Short Duration): Low-confidence or choppy conditions. Expect quick resolution.
III. PRACTICAL USAGE GUIDE: METHODOLOGY AND EXECUTION
A. ESTABLISHING TRADING CONTEXT (THE THREE CHECKS)
The primary goal of the dashboard is to filter out low-probability trade setups before they occur.
• Timeframe Selection: Although the core AI is normalized to the Daily context, the indicator performs optimally on intraday timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m) where session-based volatility is most pronounced.
• PHASE Check (Timing): Always confirm the current phase. The highest probability signals typically occur within the visually highlighted NY AM/PM Killzones because this is when institutional liquidity and volume are at their peak. Signals outside these zones should be treated with skepticism.
• MARKET REGIME Check (Bias): Ensure the signal (BUY/SELL arrow) aligns with the established MARKET REGIME bias (BULLISH/BEARISH). Counter-bias signals are technically allowed if the score is high, but they represent a higher risk trade.
• VIX REGIME Check (Risk): Review the VIX REGIME for overall market stress. Periods marked DANGER (high VIX) indicate elevated volatility and market uncertainty. During DANGER regimes, reducing position size or choosing a wider SL Multiplier is advisable.
B. DASHBOARD INTERPRETATION (THE REAL-TIME STATUS DISPLAY)
The indicator features a non-intrusive dashboard that provides real-time, context-aware information based on the core analytical engines.
PHASE: (PRE-MARKET, NY-AM, LUNCH, NY-PM)
• Meaning: Indicates the current institutional session time. This is derived from the customizable session inputs.
• Interpretation: Signals generated during NY-AM or NY-PM (Killzones) are generally considered higher-probability due to increased institutional participation and liquidity.
MARKET REGIME: (BULLISH, BEARISH, NEUTRAL)
• Meaning: The established directional bias for the trading day, confirmed by the price breaking above the Pre-Market High (PMH) or below the Pre-Market Low (PML).
• Interpretation: Trading with the established regime (e.g., taking a BUY signal when the regime is BULLISH) is the primary method. NEUTRAL indicates that the PMH/PML boundary has not yet been broken, suggesting market ambiguity.
VIX REGIME: (STABLE, DANGER)
• Meaning: A measure of overall market stress and stability, based on the CBOE VIX index integration. The thresholds (20.0 and 35.0 default) are customizable by the user.
• Interpretation: STABLE indicates stable volatility, favoring momentum trades. DANGER (VIX > 35.0) indicates extreme stress; signals generated in this environment require caution and often necessitate smaller position sizing.
SIGNAL SCORE: (0 to 10+ Points)
• Meaning: The accumulated score derived from the VOLATILITY NORMALIZED AI SCORING ENGINE, factoring in bias, VWAP alignment, volume, and the Z-Score probability.
• Interpretation: The indicator generates a signal when this score meets or exceeds the Minimum Entry Score (default 3). A higher score (e.g., 7+) indicates greater statistical confluence and a stronger potential entry.
AI PROBABILITY: (Bull/Bear %)
• Meaning: Directional probability derived from the ML kernel, expressed as a percentage with Bull/Bear label.
• Interpretation: Higher absolute values (>20%) indicate stronger directional conviction from the ML model.
LIVE METRICS SECTION:
• STATUS: Shows current trade state (LONG, SHORT, or INACTIVE)
• ENTRY: Displays the entry price for active trades
• TARGET: Shows the calculated Take Profit level
• ROI | KILL ZONE:
◦ For Active Trades: Displays real-time P&L percentage during NY session hours.
◦ At Market Close (16:00 NY): Since this is a NY session-specific indicator, any active position is automatically evaluated and closed at 16:00. The final result (VALIDATED or INVALIDATED) is determined based on whether the trade reached profit or loss at market close.
◦ Result Persistence: The killzone result (VALIDATED/INVALIDATED) remains displayed on the dashboard until the next NY AM KILLZONE session begins, providing a clear performance reference for the previous trading day.
Note: If a trade is still trending at 16:00, it will be force-closed and evaluated at that moment, as the indicator operates strictly within NY trading hours.
C. SIGNAL GENERATION AND ENTRY LOGIC
The indicator generates signals based on two distinct technical setups, both of which require the accumulated SIGNAL SCORE to be above the configured Minimum Entry Score.
Breakout Entry
• Trigger Condition: Price closes beyond the Pre-Market High (PMH) or Low (PML).
• Rationale: This setup targets the initial directional movement for the day. A breakout confirms the institutional bias by decisively breaking the first major structural boundary, making the signal high-probability.
Continuation Entry
• Trigger Condition: The market is already in an established regime (e.g., BULLISH), and the price closes above the high (or below the low) of the previous bar, while the SIGNAL SCORE remains high. Requires the Allow Trend Continuation parameter to be active.
• Rationale: This setup targets follow-through trades, typically in the afternoon session, capturing momentum after the morning's direction has been confirmed. This filters for sustainability in the established trend.
Execution: Execute the trade immediately upon the close of the bar that prints the BUY or SELL signal arrow.
D. MANAGING RISK AND EXITS
1. RISK PARAMETER SELECTION
The indicator immediately draws the dynamic TP/SL zones upon entry.
• Volatility-Based (Recommended Default): By setting the SL Multiplier (e.g., 1.5) and the TP Multiplier (e.g., 3.0), the indicator enforces a constant, dynamically sized risk-to-reward ratio (e.g., 1:2 in this example). This helps that risk management scales proportionally with the current market volatility (ATR).
• Structural Override: Selecting the Use Structural SL parameter fixes the stop-loss not to the ATR calculation, but to the more significant structural level of the PMH or PML. This is utilized by traders who favor institutional entry rules where the stop is placed behind the liquidity boundary.
2. EXIT METHODS
• Hard Exit: Price hits the visual TP or SL box boundary.
• Soft Exit (Momentum Decay Filter): If the trade is active and the SIGNAL SCORE drops below the Exit Score Threshold (default 3), it indicates that the momentum supporting the trade has significantly collapsed. This serves as a momentum decay filter, prompting the user to consider a manual early exit even if the SL/TP levels have not been hit, thereby preserving capital during low-momentum consolidation.
• Market Close Auto-Exit: At 16:00 NY time, any active trade is automatically closed and classified as VALIDATED (profit) or INVALIDATED (loss) based on current price vs. entry price.

🔔 ALERT CONFIGURATION GUIDE
The indicator is equipped with specific alert conditions.
How to Set Up an Alert:
Click the "Alert" (Clock icon) in the top TradingView toolbar.
Select "Market Regime NY Session " from the Condition dropdown menu.
Choose one of the specific trigger conditions below depending on your strategy:
🚀 Available Alert Conditions
1. BUY (Long Entry)
Trigger: Fires immediately when a confirmed Bullish Setup is detected.
Conditions: Market Bias is Bullish (or valid Continuation) + Signal Score ≥ Minimum Entry Score.
Usage: Use this alert to open new Long positions or close existing Short positions.
2. SELL (Short Entry)
Trigger: Fires immediately when a confirmed Bearish Setup is detected.
Conditions: Market Bias is Bearish (or valid Continuation) + Signal Score ≥ Minimum Entry Score.
Usage: Use this alert to open new Short positions or close existing Long positions.
V. IMPORTANT TECHNICAL LIMITATIONS
⚠️ Intraday Only (Timeframe Compatibility)
This indicator is strictly designed for Intraday Timeframes (1m to 4h).
Daily/Weekly Charts: The session logic (e.g., "09:30-16:00") cannot function on Daily bars because a single bar encompasses the entire session. Session boxes, TP/SL zones, and AI prediction boxes will NOT draw on the Daily timeframe. Only the PDH/PDL liquidity lines remain visible on Daily charts. This is expected behavior, not a limitation.
Maximum Supported Timeframe: All visual components (session boxes, killzone overlays, TP/SL zones, AI prediction boxes) are displayed up to the 4-hour timeframe. Above this timeframe, only PDH/PDL lines and the dashboard remain functional.
⚠️ Drawing Object Limit (Max 500)
A single script can display a maximum of 500 drawing objects (boxes/lines) simultaneously.
On lower timeframes (e.g., 1-minute), where many signals and session boxes are generated, older history (typically beyond 10-14 days) will automatically disappear to make room for new real-time data.
For deeper historical backtesting visualization, switch to higher timeframes (e.g., 15m, 1h).
The indicator implements FIFO array management to comply with this limit while maintaining the most recent and relevant visual data.
VI. PRACTICAL TRADING TIPS AND BEST PRACTICES
• Killzone Confirmation: The highest statistical validity is observed when a high-score signal occurs directly within a visible NY AM/PM Killzone. Use the Killzones as a strict time filter.
• Liquidity Awareness (PDH/PDL): Treat the Previous Day High (PDH) and Low (PDL) lines as magnets. If your dynamic Take Profit (TP) is placed just above PDH, consider adjusting your target slightly below PDH or utilizing the Soft Exit, as liquidity absorption at these levels often results in sudden, sharp reversals that stop out a trade just before the target is reached.
• VIX as a Position Sizer: During DANGER VIX regimes, the resulting high volatility means the ATR value will be large. It is prudent to either reduce the SL Multiplier or, more commonly, reduce the overall position size to maintain a constant currency risk exposure per trade.
• Continuation Filter Timing: Trend Continuation signals are most effective during the Afternoon (PM) session when the morning's directional breakout has had time to establish a strong, clear, and sustainable trend. Avoid using them in the initial AM session when the direction is still being contested.
• 16:00 Market Close Rule: All trades, boxes, and lines are automatically cleaned up at 16:00 NY time. This prevents overnight chart clutter and maintains visual clarity.
VII. DISCLAIMER & RISK WARNINGS
• Educational Purpose Only
This indicator, including all associated code, documentation, and visual outputs, is provided strictly for educational and informational purposes. It does not constitute financial advice, investment recommendations, or a solicitation to buy or sell any financial instruments.
• No Guarantee of Performance
Past performance is not indicative of future results. All metrics displayed on the dashboard (including "ROI" and trade results) are theoretical calculations based on historical data. These figures do not account for real-world trading factors such as slippage, liquidity gaps, spread costs, or broker commissions.
• High-Risk Warning
Trading cryptocurrencies, futures, and leveraged financial products involves a substantial risk of loss. The use of leverage can amplify both gains and losses. Users acknowledge that they are solely responsible for their trading decisions and should conduct independent due diligence before executing any trades.
• Software Limitations
The software is provided "as is" without warranty. Users should be aware that market data feeds on analysis platforms may experience latency or outages, which can affect signal generation accuracy.
Intuitive Predictive MACD TargetsThis indicator uses Reverse Engineering math to calculate the exact price the market needs to reach for specific MACD events to happen on the current bar.
Standard MACD is a lagging indicator—you usually wait for the candle to close to confirm a signal. This script changes that by drawing "Finish Lines" on your chart, showing you exactly where price must go right now to trigger a Crossover or a Momentum Hook.
The "Reverse Engineering" Concept
Instead of calculating MACD from Price, we calculate the Required Price from the Target MACD.
Q: "At what price will the MACD line cross the Signal line?"
A: The script solves this and draws the Green/Red "Crossover" Line.
Key Features
1. Three Distinct Targets
Crossover Target (PCO/NCO): The exact price needed to trigger a Buy/Sell signal on the current candle.
Dynamic Coloring: Turns Green if price needs to go UP to cross, Red if price needs to go DOWN.
Settlement Target (The Hook): The exact price where the MACD momentum flattens out (Angle = 0). If price touches this Orange Dashed Line, the trend is likely pausing or preparing to reverse.
Zero Cross Target: The price needed for MACD to reclaim the Zero Line.
2. Smart "Staggered" Labels (No Overlap)
Unlike other scripts where text piles up and becomes unreadable, this indicator automatically spreads labels horizontally.
Crossover info stays near the price.
Settlement info is shifted to the right.
Zero info is shifted further right.
Result: You can read all three targets clearly, even if the prices are almost identical.
3. Full Customization
Line Length: Choose "Infinite" to see targets as Support/Resistance levels across the screen, or "Short" to keep your chart background clean.
Text Visibility: Option to force text to White or Black for high contrast on Dark/Light themes.
Styles: Fully adjustable colors, line widths, and styles (Solid, Dashed, Dotted) for each target type.
How to Use
The "Finish Line" Strategy: If you are Long, and the Red NCO Line appears just below the current price, be cautious. It means a very small drop will confirm a Bearish Cross.
Momentum Checks: Watch the Orange "Settlement" Line.
If price is moving away from the Orange line, the trend is accelerating (Safe to hold).
If price touches the Orange line, momentum has died (Consider taking profit).
Settings
Visual Settings: Change Line Length (Infinite/Short) and Text Color.
MACD Settings: Standard inputs (Default 12, 26, 9).
Toggles: Option to show/hide the Zero Line target.
Kernel Filter Histogram (RBF)The Kernel Filter Histogram (RBF) is a regime-detection and edge-confirmation tool built on Gaussian (RBF) kernel regression.
It is designed to identify when market conditions are favorable for participation and when traders should stay defensive.
Instead of reacting to price noise, this indicator measures the normalized slope of a smoothed kernel regression curve, converts it into a z-score, and displays it as a histogram representing directional edge pressure.
What It Measures
Underlying market regime (bullish, bearish, or neutral)
Strength and quality of directional momentum
Statistical edge expansion vs compression
When trend continuation is more likely vs chop
How It Works
Applies Nadaraya–Watson kernel regression using a Gaussian (RBF) kernel
Calculates the slope of the regression curve
Normalizes slope using ATR for cross-instrument consistency
Converts the result into a z-score to measure statistical deviation
Smooths the output into a readable histogram + signal line
Uses an optional threshold gate to filter low-quality conditions
Reading the Histogram
Green bars → Bullish regime / positive edge
Red bars → Bearish regime / negative edge
Gray bars → Neutral / low-edge environment
Above zero → Bullish pressure dominates
Below zero → Bearish pressure dominates
Threshold gating allows you to require minimum edge strength before treating signals as actionable.
Best Use Cases
Trade filter (only take longs when bullish, shorts when bearish)
Regime confirmation for existing strategies
Momentum quality assessment
Avoiding chop and low-probability setups
Multi-timeframe alignment tool

MACD Histogram Expansion Alerts (Scalp)Purpose: Alerts when MACD histogram is expanding (momentum increasing) rather than simply crossing. Designed for 1-minute scalping and intraday momentum confirmation.
This script is for traders who are tired of late MACD cross alerts.
Instead of firing when MACD lines cross (which often happens after the move), this indicator alerts when the MACD histogram is expanding — meaning momentum is actually increasing right now, not rolling over.
I use it as a “heads up” alert, not a buy/sell signal. When it fires, I check price action, volume, VWAP, support/resistance, etc., to see if the move is worth trading.
Best suited for 1-minute charts, scalping, and fast intraday momentum.
MACD Histogram Expansion Alerts (Scalp) is a lightweight alert-focused indicator designed for intraday traders and scalpers, particularly on lower timeframes such as the 1-minute chart.
Rather than triggering alerts on standard MACD line crossovers (which tend to lag in fast or volatile markets), this script detects MACD histogram expansion — a condition that indicates momentum acceleration, not just direction.
🔍 What this script does
Uses a fast MACD configuration suitable for lower timeframes
Monitors the MACD histogram slope and magnitude
Triggers alerts only when the histogram expands for multiple consecutive bars
Alerts are fired on bar close only, reducing noise and false intrabar signals
🚀 Why focus on histogram expansion?
Histogram expansion highlights when momentum is building, which can be useful for:
Continuation setups
Early momentum confirmation
Avoiding entries when momentum is already fading
This approach is especially helpful in small caps, news-driven stocks, and volatile intraday instruments, where traditional MACD cross alerts can arrive too late.
🔔 Alert Types
Bullish MACD Histogram Expansion
Bearish MACD Histogram Expansion
Each alert can be enabled independently and is intended as an attention signal, not a standalone trading system.
⚙️ Customizable Inputs
MACD Fast / Slow / Signal lengths
Number of consecutive expanding histogram bars required
Optional minimum histogram magnitude filter
Optional directional filter (above/below zero line)
⚠️ Important Notes!!!!
This script does not place trades
Alerts should be used with additional context, such as price action, volume, VWAP, or support/resistance
Not designed for higher-timeframe or swing trading use .
If you find this helpful, feel free to adapt it to your own trading style or timeframe. This script is meant to be simple, flexible, and non-opinionated.
