Custom ORBIT GSK-VIZAG-AP-INDIA🚀 Custom ORBIT — Opening Range Breakout & Reversal Indicator
This indicator automatically calculates and plots the Opening Range (OR) high and low levels for a user-defined session and duration. It is designed to assist intraday traders by providing immediate visual signals for both price breakouts and subsequent reversals from these key levels.
The indicator is particularly suitable for markets with defined trading hours, such as the Indian indices (Nifty, Bank Nifty), given its default time settings are based on GMT+5:30.
⚙️ How It Works (Indicator Logic)
The indicator operates based on three main logical components: time definition, level calculation, and signal generation.
1. Time Session and Range Definition: All time calculations are based on GMT+5:30 (Indian Standard Time/IST). The script defines a specific trading session from a customizable start time (default 9:15 AM) to a session end time (default 3:30 PM). The Opening Range (OR) is established during the initial duration, which is set by the rangeMinutes input (default 15 minutes, meaning the OR is calculated from 9:15 AM to 9:30 AM).
2. Level Calculation and Plotting: During the initial range duration, the script captures the absolute highest price (OR High) and the absolute lowest price (OR Low). Once this period ends, two horizontal lines—a green line for the OR High and a red line for the OR Low—are drawn and automatically extended across the chart for the remainder of the active trading session. The visual style of these lines can be customized to Dotted, Dashed, or Solid.
3. Breakout and Reversal Logic: The indicator actively tracks the market's state relative to the OR levels to generate four distinct signals:
Break Up: A signal is generated when the closing price crosses over the OR High, indicating potential upward momentum.
Break Down: A signal is generated when the closing price crosses under the OR Low, indicating potential downward momentum.
Reversal Down: This yellow signal occurs only after a price has already broken above the OR High (Break Up state), and then the price moves back into the range (closing below the ORH), suggesting a failed breakout.
Reversal Up: This yellow signal occurs only after a price has already broken below the OR Low (Break Down state), and then the price moves back into the range (closing above the ORL), suggesting a failed breakdown.
💡 Suggested Use Cases
The signals generated by this indicator can be used in two primary ways:
Breakout Trading: A trader may enter a long position on a "Break Up" signal or a short position on a "Break Down" signal. A common risk management practice is to use the opposite OR level (ORL for long trades, ORH for short trades) as a stop-loss reference.
Faded Breakout / Reversal Trading: Look for the yellow "Reversal Up" or "Reversal Down" signals. These signals indicate a rejection of the OR level, and a trader may take a counter-trend position with the expectation that the price will return to the consolidation range or move toward the opposite OR level.

Jin#10 HMA/OBV Pro Trader System (15m)HMA/OBV Pro Trader System Overview (15m Timeframe)
This system is designed to identify high-probability entry and exit points on the 15-minute chart by integrating multiple indicators for confirmation.
1. Trend and Confirmation
HMA Lines (Solid Lines): These are two Hull Moving Averages (HMA 8 and HMA 15).
Green/Red HMA 8 (Line 1): The faster HMA, showing short-term momentum.
Blue/Red HMA 15 (Line 3): The slower HMA, indicating the medium-term trend direction.
Trend Alignment: A strong trend requires the fast HMA (8) to be above the slow HMA (15) and both to be sloping favorably.
MTF Background Color (Candle Background): This represents the 30-minute trend filter.
Light Green/Teal: The 30-minute trend is upward and strong.
Light Orange/Red: The 30-minute trend is downward and strong.
This acts as a major confirmation filter for entries.
2. Trading Signals (Shapes)
🚀 BUY / 🔻 SELL: These are the Final Confirmation Signals. They appear when all conditions (HMA alignment, Stochastic, MACD, and the 30m MTF filter) are met.
⚠️ Pre-BUY / Pre-SELL: These are Warning/Early Signals indicating that most conditions on the 15m chart are aligned, but the 30m filter has not yet confirmed the trend direction.
🔥 Volatility Spike / 🧊 Volatility Crash (Small Circle): Alerts the user to an unusually large candle (ATR spike), signaling extreme volatility or a potential reversal.
3. Exit and Risk Management
ATR Trailing Stop (Dashed Line): This dynamic line serves as a Soft Exit or Stop-Loss Guide.
❌ Exit Long / Exit Short (X-Cross): This shape appears when the price crosses the ATR Trailing Stop, suggesting the existing position (Long or Short) should be closed immediately.
Dashed TP/SL Lines (Green/Red): These lines mark a calculated Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) based on the entry price and the defined Risk-Reward Ratio (e.g., 1:1.5).
USD Liquidity Regime IndexTrack global risk regimes with this USD Liquidity Composite —
It aims to be a daily macro indicator blending normalised DXY (50%), UUP (20%), 10Y Treasury yields (20%), and VIX (10%).
How to read:
When the blue index is above its red SMA: Strong USD, tightening liquidity → Risk-Off mode (often bearish for Nasdaq, BTC, and risk assets).
When the line is below: Weak USD, abundant liquidity → Risk-On (bullish environment).
Example: In 2022's bear market, the index stayed high above SMA most of the year, signalling persistent Risk-Off as USD surged.
Features on-chart table, regime background colors, and crossover alerts.
Great contextual tool for macro traders IMO.
Educational only — not financial advice.
Use at your own risk.

Wavelet Candle Constructor (Inc. Morlet) 2Here is the detailed description of the **Wavelet Candle** construction principles based on the code provided.
This indicator is not a simple smoothing mechanism (like a Moving Average). It utilizes the **Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT)**, specifically the Stationary variant (SWT / à Trous Algorithm), to separate "noise" (high frequencies) from the "trend" (low frequencies).
Here is how it works step-by-step:
###1. The Wavelet Kernel (Coefficients)The heart of the algorithm lies in the coefficients (the `h` array in the `get_coeffs` function). Each wavelet type represents a different set of mathematical weights that define how price data is analyzed:
* **Haar:** The simplest wavelet. It acts like a simple average of neighboring candles. It reacts quickly but produces a "boxy" or "jagged" output.
* **Daubechies 4:** An asymmetric wavelet. It is better at detecting sudden trend changes and the fractal structure of the market, though it introduces a slight phase shift.
* **Symlet / Coiflet:** More symmetric than Daubechies. They attempt to minimize lag (phase shift) while maintaining smoothness.
* **Morlet (Gaussian):** Implemented in this code as a Gaussian approximation (bell curve). It provides the smoothest, most "organic" effect, ideal for filtering noise without jagged edges.
###2. The Convolution EngineInstead of a simple average, the code performs a mathematical operation called **convolution**:
For every candle on the chart, the algorithm takes past prices, multiplies them by the Wavelet Kernel weights, and sums them up. This acts as a **digital low-pass filter**—it allows the main price movements to pass through while cutting out the noise.
###3. The "à Trous" Algorithm (Stationary Wavelet Transform)This is the key difference between this indicator and standard data compression.
In a classic wavelet transform, every second data point is usually discarded (downsampling). Here, the **Stationary** approach is used:
* **Level 1:** Convolution every **1** candle.
* **Level 2:** Convolution every **2** candles (skipping one in between).
* **Level 3:** Convolution every **4** candles.
* **Level 4:** Convolution every **8** candles.
Because of this, **we do not lose time resolution**. The Wavelet Candle is drawn exactly where the original candle is, but it represents the trend structure from a broader perspective. The higher the `Decomposition Level`, the deeper the denoising (looking at a wider context).
###4. Independent OHLC ProcessingThe algorithm processes each component of the candle separately:
1. Filters the **Open** series.
2. Filters the **High** series.
3. Filters the **Low** series.
4. Filters the **Close** series.
This results in four smoothed curves: `w_open`, `w_high`, `w_low`, `w_close`.
###5. Geometric Reconstruction (Logic Repair)Since each price series is filtered independently, the mathematics can sometimes lead to physically impossible situations (e.g., the smoothed `Low` being higher than the smoothed `High`).
The code includes a repair section:
```pinescript
real_high = math.max(w_high, w_low)
real_high := math.max(real_high, math.max(w_open, w_close))
// Same logic for Low (math.min)
```
This guarantees that the final Wavelet Candle always has a valid construction: wicks encapsulate the body, and the `High` is strictly the highest point.
---
###Summary of ApplicationThis construction makes the Wavelet Candle an **excellent trend-following tool**.
* If the candle is **green**, it means that after filtering the noise (according to the selected wavelet), the market energy is bullish.
* If it is **red**, the energy is bearish.
* The wicks show volatility that exists within the bounds of the selected decomposition level.
Here is a descriptive comparison of **Wavelet Candles** against other popular chart types. As requested, this is a narrative explanation focusing on the differences in mechanics, interpretation philosophy, and the specific pros and cons of each approach.
---
###1. Wavelet Candles vs. Standard (Japanese) CandlesThis is a clash between "the raw truth" and "mathematical interpretation." Standard Japanese candles display raw market data—exactly what happened on the exchange. Wavelet Candles are a synthetic image created by a signal processor.
**Differences and Philosophy:**
A standard candle is full of emotion and noise. Every single price tick impacts its shape. The Wavelet Candle treats this noise as interference that must be removed to reveal the true energy of the trend. Wavelets decompose the price, reject high frequencies (noise), and reconstruct the candle using only low frequencies (the trend).
* **Wavelet Advantages:** The main advantage is clarity. Where a standard chart shows a series of confusing candles (e.g., a long green one, followed by a short red one, then a doji), the Wavelet Candle often draws a smooth, uniform wave in a single color. This makes it psychologically easier to hold a position and ignore temporary pullbacks.
* **Wavelet Disadvantages:** The biggest drawback is the loss of price precision. The Open, Close, High, and Low values on a Wavelet candle are calculated, not real. You **cannot** place Stop Loss orders or enter trades based on these levels, as the actual market price might be in a completely different place than the smoothed candle suggests. They also introduce lag, which depends on the chosen wavelet—whereas a standard candle reacts instantly.
###2. Wavelet Candles vs. Heikin AshiThese are close cousins, but they share very different "DNA." Both methods aim to smooth the trend, but they achieve it differently.
**Differences and Philosophy:**
Heikin Ashi (HA) is based on a simple recursive arithmetic average. The current HA candle depends on the previous one, making it react linearly.
The Wavelet Candle uses **convolution**. This means the shape of the current candle depends on a "window" (group) of past candles multiplied by weights (Gaussian curve, Daubechies, etc.). This results in a more "organic" and elastic reaction.
* **Wavelet Advantages:** Wavelets are highly customizable. With Heikin Ashi, you are stuck with one algorithm. With Wavelet Candles, you can change the kernel to "Haar" for a fast (boxy) reaction or "Morlet" for an ultra-smooth, wave-like effect. Wavelets handle the separation of market cycles better than simple HA averaging, which can generate many false color flips during consolidation.
* **Wavelet Disadvantages:** They are computationally much more complex and harder to understand intuitively ("Why is this candle red if the price is going up?"). In strong, vertical breakouts (pumps), Heikin Ashi often "chases" the price faster, whereas deep wavelet decomposition (High Level) may show more inertia and change color more slowly.
###3. Wavelet Candles vs. RenkoThis compares two different dimensions: Time vs. Price.
**Differences and Philosophy:**
Renko completely ignores time. A new brick is formed only when the price moves by a specific amount. If the market stands still for 5 hours, nothing happens on a Renko chart.
The Wavelet Candle is **time-synchronous**. If the market stands still for 5 hours, the Wavelet algorithm will draw a series of flat, small candles (the "wavelet decays").
* **Wavelet Advantages:** They preserve the context of time, which is crucial for traders who consider trading sessions (London/New York) or macroeconomic data releases. On a wavelet chart, you can see when volatility drops (candles become small), whereas Renko hides periods of stagnation, which can be misleading for options traders or intraday strategies.
* **Wavelet Disadvantages:** In sideways trends (chop), Wavelet Candles—despite the smoothing—will still draw a "snake" that flips colors (unless you set a very high decomposition level). Renko can remain perfectly clean and static during the same period, not drawing any new bricks, which for many traders is the ultimate filter against overtrading in a flat market.
###Summary**Wavelet Candles** are a tool for the analyst who wants to visualize the **structure of the wave and market cycle**, accepting some lag in exchange for noise reduction, but without giving up the time axis (like in Renko) or relying on simple averaging (like in Heikin Ashi). It serves best as a "roadmap" for the trend rather than a "sniper scope" for precise entries.
Box Theory StrategyHere is an explanation of the Box Theory trading strategy.
The Core Philosophy
This strategy is based on the idea that the market is a battle between buyers and sellers, and that these groups often defend the same price levels they used previously. Instead of trying to predict every move, this method focuses on trading only at the "extremes" where the probabilities are highest, while avoiding the middle of the chart where price action is random.
1. The Setup: Drawing the Box
To use this strategy, you must define the "playing field" for the day before you take any trades.
Top of the Box: Draw a line at the Previous Day’s High.
Bottom of the Box: Draw a line at the Previous Day’s Low.
Center Line: Draw a line roughly in the middle of these two points.
This box represents the established range where the market recently found value.
2. The Three Zones & Rules
Once the box is drawn, the chart is divided into three zones. Each zone dictates a specific action.
Zone 1: The Top (Resistance / Sell Zone)
What it represents: This is where sellers previously stepped in and pushed the price down. It is a known area of supply.
The Rule: NO BUYING.
If the price rallies to this level, you should look for Short/Sell opportunities.
Why? Buying here means purchasing at a price that was previously rejected. The probability of a reversal (price going down) is high.
Zone 2: The Bottom (Support / Buy Zone)
What it represents: This is where buyers previously stepped in and pushed the price up. It is a known area of demand.
The Rule: NO SELLING.
If the price drops to this level, you should look for Long/Buy opportunities.
Why? Selling here means shorting into support. The probability of a bounce (price going up) is high.
Zone 3: The Middle (Indecision Zone)
What it represents: This is the area of noise and confusion. Neither buyers nor sellers have clear control here.
The Rule: DO NOT TRADE.
Why? In the middle of the range, the odds of the price going up or down are roughly 50/50. Trading here is considered gambling because you do not have a statistical edge.
3. Execution: How to Trade
The Entry
Short Setup: Wait for the price to touch or slightly pierce the Top of the Box. Enter a short position when you see the price failing to break out (e.g., leaving a wick and closing back inside the box).
Long Setup: Wait for the price to touch or slightly pierce the Bottom of the Box. Enter a long position when you see the price failing to break down (e.g., bouncing off the level).
Stop Loss (Risk Management)
This strategy offers a very clear invalidation point.
For Shorts: Place your Stop Loss just above the box.
For Longs: Place your Stop Loss just below the box.
Logic: If the price clearly breaks out of the box, the range is broken, and you want to exit the trade immediately with a small loss.
Take Profit (Targets)
First Target: The Center Line. This is a safe place to take some profit or move your stop loss to breakeven.
Main Target: The opposite side of the box (e.g., if you sold at the top, target the bottom).
4. Handling Gaps (The "Cheater Box")
If the market opens significantly higher or lower than the previous day's range (a large gap), the original box may be too far away to be useful.
Adjustment: In this scenario, you can draw a new box using the highest and lowest price points of the current trading session so far.
Once this new range is established, apply the same rules: Sell the high, Buy the low, and avoid the middle.
Probability-Based Adaptive Detection🙏🏻 PBAD (Probability-Based Adaptive Detection) : adaptive control tool for outliers || novelty detection, made for worst case data & processes, for the highest time complexity O(n^2) compared with the alternatives (would be explained in a sec). Thresholds are completely data driven and axiomatic, no need in provided hyperparameters, are not learned or optimized. The method accepts multiple weights, e.g. both temporal and volatility weights.
Method briefly explained (I can go deeper if any1 asks explicitly):
Performs weighted KDE on initial input data, finds KDE global maximum (mode), creates new “residuals” dataset by centering initial data around this value;
Performs weighted KDE on residuals, uses sigmoid based probability mass targets with increasing probability coverage to construct a set of non-disjoint High Density Intervals (also called HDR, HPD in Bayesian terms);
Uses these intervals to calculate analogs of centralized & standardized moments;
Uses these ^^ moments to construct a set of control thresholds. The scheme used in PBAD is not only based on a central threshold, or on neighboring ones, it utilizes all previous thresholds, gaining more information.
...
The most important part is to understand whether you really need PBAD. Because even tho it seems to be the best one given highest algocomplexity, irl it would work worse in cases when it’s not required by your data.
Here’s the menu (aka taxonomy omg) of methods you can use that would let you make the right choice:
Moment-Based Adaptive Detection (MBAD) :
Norm: L2
Time complexity: original O(n), successfully reduced to O(1) in online version
Use case: default, general purpose
Based on: method of moments (powers of residuals from mean)
Thresholds architecture: centralized
Quantile-Based Adaptive Detection (QBAD):
Norm: L1
Time complexity: O(nlogn)
Use case: either bad data Or process instability
Based on: quantile moments (dyadic percentiles of residuals from median)
Thresholds architecture: chained/recursive/sequential
Probability-Based Adaptive Detection (PBAD):
Norm: L0
Time complexity: O(n^2)
Use case: both bad data And process instability
Based on: probability moments (target probability masses of residuals from KDE mode)
Thresholds architecture: decentralized (for lack of a better name xd, the idea is that these thresholds gain information from the all other threshold and are Not exclusively based on the central or neighboring thresholds)
...
Examples of true use cases:
^^ an appropriate financial instrument to use PBAD
^^ and another one
...
Additional details about how to use it:
Keep the student5 kernel, it’s the best you can do. I added others mostly for comparisons and if you want to use the tool Not for its primary purpose (on a fine data)
“Calculate for N bars” and “Starting at bar N” options allow to reduce calculation period only on the N number of last bars or next bars from a chosen one. It's vital, because calculations here are heavy
Keep plotting offset at 1 (allows to visually compare current bar with the previous threshold values). This is the way it should be done on price data.
HLC3 is the optimal source input, unless you want to use your own better one point estimate of each datapoint (in the best case done by using PBAD itself on OHLC+ values).
In essence it should be used just like MBAD or QBAD, fade/push extensions and limit, fade/push/skip deviations & basis, or other strategies of your. Again, the only reason for 3 methods to exist is to be chosen for according data characteristics.
Btw:
This is the initial version, I don’t consider it perfected tbh, even tho it works as expected, however this method is very situational anyways.
In this script KDE function is modified to ensure the outcoming probabilities Do sum up to 1. I didn’t do this normalization in Weighted KDE Mode script , but there it’s not required since we just need a KDE global max.
see ya

This indicator is designed to help you trade COIN by clearly showing trend direction, confirmation signals, and predefined take-profit levels. It removes guesswork and helps you stay on the right side of the move.
HOW TO LOAD
Add the indicator to a COIN chart. Turn on Extended Hours for best results. The default settings are already optimized and do not need to be changed.
THE RIBBON (WHAT TO TRADE)
The ribbon shows the overall trend.
Teal ribbon = price is trending up (look for BUY setups).
Red ribbon = price is trending down (look for SELL setups).
Gray ribbon = no clear trend (do not trade).
If the ribbon is gray, the indicator will block signals to protect you from choppy markets.
BULL AND BEAR DOTS (TREND CHANGE ALERTS)
Bull dot appears when the trend turns bullish.
Bear dot appears when the trend turns bearish.
These dots are early warnings, not entries. Always wait for a BUY or SELL arrow before taking a trade.
BUY AND SELL ARROWS (WHEN TO ENTER)
BUY arrows appear only when conditions strongly favor upward movement.
SELL arrows appear only when conditions strongly favor downward movement.
These arrows are confirmation signals. Enter only after the arrow appears.
Not every move will get a signal. Fewer, higher-quality signals are intentional.
OPENING BIAS (FIRST MINUTES PROTECTION)
Right after the market opens, the indicator sets a directional bias.
During this time, it will only allow trades in the safer direction.
This helps avoid getting chopped up during the opening volatility.
TAKE-PROFIT TARGETS AND STOP
When a BUY or SELL arrow appears, take-profit levels automatically show on the chart:
TP1, TP2, and TP3 are profit targets.
STOP is where the trade is considered wrong.
You can scale out at each target or exit fully at any level.
Only the most recent targets are shown to keep the chart clean.
SIMPLE WAY TO USE IT
Check the ribbon color (teal or red).
Ignore the chart if the ribbon is gray.
Wait for a BUY or SELL arrow.
Use the take-profit targets and stop provided.
Do not chase moves without arrows.
IMPORTANT NOTES
This indicator does not repaint confirmed signals.
It is meant to keep trading simple and disciplined.
It works best during strong trend days, not sideways markets.
EMA Slope Angle V2 Auto Threshold# EMA Slope Angle Indicator

```
### Auto-Threshold Calculation
When enabled, the indicator:
1. Analyzes historical angle data over the specified period
2. Calculates mean and standard deviation
3. Determines thresholds based on the 50% interquartile range (IQR):
- **Flat Threshold**: ±0.674σ (middle 50% of data)
- **Rising Trigger**: 75th percentile (mean + 0.674σ)
- **Falling Trigger**: 25th percentile (mean - 0.674σ)
### Regime Classification
- **FLAT**: Angle within ±Flat Threshold
- **RISING**: Angle ≥ Rising Trigger
- **FALLING**: Angle ≤ Falling Trigger
## Use Cases
### Trend Following
- Identify strong trends (high angle values)
- Spot trend reversals (regime changes)
- Filter trades based on trend strength
### Range Trading
- Detect flat/consolidation periods
- Avoid trading during choppy markets
- Enter when regime shifts from FLAT to RISING/FALLING
### Multi-Timeframe Analysis
- Apply to different timeframes for confirmation
- Use higher timeframe for trend direction
- Use lower timeframe for entry timing
## Tips for Best Results
1. **Enable Auto-Thresholds**: Let the indicator adapt to your instrument
2. **Adjust Analysis Period**: Use more bars for stable markets, fewer for volatile ones
3. **Combine with Price Action**: Use regime changes as confirmation, not standalone signals
4. **Multi-Timeframe**: Check higher timeframes for trend context
5. **Backtest First**: Test settings on historical data before live trading

ORB Pro - NY Opening Range Breakout by Elev8+ORB Pro - NY Opening Range Breakout | Smart Support & Resistance
ORB Pro is a comprehensive, professional-grade toolkit designed for intraday traders who rely on the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) strategy.
Unlike standard ORB indicators that simply draw lines, this suite offers a complete dashboard-driven system that monitors four distinct sessions simultaneously, providing real-time status updates and precision alerts.
— — —
🎯 What is the Opening Range Breakout (ORB)?
The Opening Range is the price range established during the first period of the trading session (e.g., the first 15 or 30 minutes). This period represents the initial balance between buyers and sellers. A breakout from this range often signals the likely trend direction for the remainder of the session.
— — —
🚀 Key Features
1. Multi-ORB Monitoring
Stop switching settings constantly. This suite monitors four key ranges at once:
Pre-Market 15m (08:00 – 08:15 ET)
Pre-Market 30m (08:00 – 08:30 ET)
NY Cash Open 15m (09:30 – 09:45 ET)
NY Cash Open 30m (09:30 – 10:00 ET)
2. Smart Status Dashboard
A compact panel in the bottom-right corner gives you the live state of every session:
⏳ Waiting: The session has not started yet.
⚡ Forming: The range is currently being built.
↔️ Range: The range has formed, but price is still contained within the range.
🚀 BULL / 📉 BEAR: A confirmed breakout has occurred.
⛔ OFF: The session is disabled in settings.
3. "Dynamic Resolution" Technology
This is a unique pro feature.
Precision: The script always calculates the High/Low levels using 1-minute data , ensuring your support/resistance lines are pixel-perfect regardless of your chart timeframe.
Flexibility: Breakout signals (Alerts/Labels) are triggered based on your current chart timeframe. This allows you to trade a 5m or 15m breakout strategy while keeping 1m-level precision on your levels.
4. Visual Clarity
Breakout Labels: Automatically plots "BULL" or "BEAR" labels on the exact candle that confirms a breakout.
Profit Targets: Optional toggle to show 1x and 2x profit targets projected from the breakout level.
Time-Bound Signals: Signals are strictly time-bound to the active window to prevent late, low-quality alerts.
— — —
🛠️ How to Use
Add to Chart: Works best on intraday timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m).
Configure: Enable the sessions you trade (e.g., NY 15m) in the settings.
Wait for Forming: Watch the box form live. The dashboard will show "⚡ Forming".
Trade the Break: Wait for a candle Close outside the range. The dashboard will flip to "BULL" or "BEAR" and a label will appear.
Manage Risk: Use the opposite side of the range or the midline as your stop loss.
— — —
⚙️ Settings Overview

ODTE Trades Layman Signals This indicator is designed to simplify intraday options trading (0DTE / weeklies) by converting complex price-action logic into clear, easy-to-understand signals.
Instead of overwhelming traders with indicators, it performs all analysis in the background and displays only what matters:
BUY CALL / BUY PUT
Predefined Stop Loss (SL)
Two Take-Profit levels (TP1 & TP2)
Trade status and risk levels via a live status box
The goal is to help traders execute consistently without emotional decision-making.
✅ What This Indicator Does
✔ Identifies directional bias using Opening Range Breakout (ORB)
✔ Confirms structure using higher highs / lower lows
✔ Filters false breakouts using liquidity sweeps & retests
✔ Automatically plots:
Entry
Stop Loss (ATR-buffered)
TP1 (partial profit)
TP2 (runner target)
✔ Manages trades with:
Breakeven stop after TP1
Cooldown after stop loss
One trade at a time protection
✔ Displays everything clearly in a Status Box:
WAIT
BUY CALL
BUY PUT
IN TRADE
COOLDOWN
🎯 How to Use (Simple Rules)

GARCH Adaptive Volatility & Momentum Predictor
💡 I. Indicator Concept: GARCH Adaptive Volatility & Momentum Predictor
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The GARCH Adaptive Momentum Speed indicator provides a powerful, forward-looking
view on market risk and momentum. Unlike standard moving averages or static
volatility indicators (like ATR), GARCH forecasts the Conditional Volatility (σ_t)
for the next bar, based on the principle of volatility clustering.
The indicator consists of two essential components:
1. GARCH Volatility (Level): The primary forecast of the expected magnitude of
price movement (risk).
2. Vol. Speed (Momentum): The first derivative of the GARCH forecast, showing
whether market risk is accelerating or decelerating. This component is the
main visual signal, displayed as a dynamic histogram.
⚙️ II. Key Features and Adaptive Logic
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Dynamic Coefficient Adaptation: The indicator automatically adjusts the GARCH
coefficients (α and β) based on the chart's timeframe (TF):
- Intraday TFs (M1-H4): Uses higher α and lower β for quicker reaction
to recent shocks.
- Daily/Weekly TFs (D, W): Uses lower α and higher β for a smoother,
more persistent long-term forecast.
* Momentum Visualization: The Vol. Speed component is plotted as a dynamic
histogram (fill) that automatically changes color based on the direction of
acceleration (Green for up, Red for down).
📊 III. Interpretation Guide
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- GARCH Volatility (Blue Line): The predicted level of market risk. Use this to
gauge overall position sizing and stop loss width.
- Vol. Speed (Green Histogram): Momentum is ACCELERATING (Risk is increasing rapidly).
A strong signal that momentum is building, often preceding a breakout.
- Vol. Speed (Red Histogram): Momentum is DECELERATING (Risk is contracting).
Indicates momentum is fading, often associated with market consolidation.
🎯 IV. Trading Application
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Breakout Timing: Look for a strong, high GREEN histogram bar. This suggests
the volatility pressure is increasing rapidly, and a breakout may be imminent.
- Consolidation: Small, shrinking RED histogram bars signal that market energy
is draining, ideal for tight consolidation patterns.
15min Candle > 20% of Daily ATRThis Pine Script® (v6) indicator, titled "15min Candle > 20% of Daily ATR", detects unusually large 15-minute candles by comparing their size (full range or body) to a user-defined percentage (default 20%) of the previous day's Average True Range (ATR, default 14-period).
AI-based Price action confluence dashboard# **AI-Based Price Action Confluence Dashboard - Publication Guide**
Here's a comprehensive introduction guide for your TradingView indicator publication:
***
## **📊 TITLE**
**AI-Based Price Action Confluence Dashboard**
***
## **🎯 SHORT DESCRIPTION** (For the summary field)
A sophisticated real-time confluence scoring system that analyzes multiple price action signals across 15-minute timeframes, providing traders with an AI-weighted scoring mechanism (0-6 scale) to identify high-probability trade setups through visual signal panels and intelligent path detection.
***
## **📝 FULL DESCRIPTION**
### **Overview**
The AI-Based Price Action Confluence Dashboard is an advanced technical indicator designed to eliminate guesswork in intraday trading by systematically scoring and displaying multiple price action signals in real-time. Unlike traditional single-indicator approaches, this dashboard employs a confluence methodology that combines multiple independent signals to provide stronger trade confirmations and reduce false signals.
This indicator is specifically optimized for **1-minute chart analysis** while monitoring **15-minute price structure**, making it ideal for day traders and scalpers who need precise entry timing with larger timeframe context.
***
### **🔑 Key Features**
**✅ Real-Time AI Confluence Scoring**
- Dynamic scoring system (0-6 points) for both bullish and bearish setups
- Visual meter display shows signal strength at a glance
- Color-coded backgrounds indicate confluence levels (strong, moderate, mixed)
**✅ Multi-Signal Analysis**
The dashboard tracks 6 distinct signal types:
1. **FTFC (First to Finish Close)** - Base & Bonus signals
2. **Long/Short Grab** - Liquidity sweep patterns (Path A)
3. **High/Low Hold** - Extended momentum confirmation (+2 bonus)
4. **2-Up/2-Down** - Clean breakout patterns (Path B)
5. **Breakaway** - First candle gap strategies
**✅ Intelligent Path Detection**
- Mutually exclusive path logic prevents signal conflicts
- Automatically identifies whether price is following a "sweep path" or "clean path"
- Unavailable paths are clearly marked with gray indicators
**✅ Visual Signal Panels**
- 🟢 Green Light = Bullish signal ACTIVE
- 🔴 Red Light = Bearish signal ACTIVE
- 🟡 Yellow Light = Signal BUILDING (conditions partially met)
- ⚪ White Light = Signal OFF
- ▪️ Gray Square = Path UNAVAILABLE (mutually exclusive)
**✅ Comprehensive Alert System**
- 10 different alert conditions covering all major signals
- Strong confluence alerts (5+ points)
- Individual signal completion alerts
- Customizable alert messages
***
### **📐 How It Works**
#### **The Confluence Methodology**
This indicator implements a sophisticated confluence trading approach where multiple independent price action signals are combined to identify high-probability setups. Each signal type contributes points to either the bullish or bearish score, with a maximum of 6 points per direction.
**Scoring Breakdown:**
**BULLISH SIGNALS:**
- FTFC Base (15m close > previous 15m close) = +1
- FTFC Bonus (price clears 15th candle high) = +1
- **PATH A (Sweep):** Long Grab = +1, High Hold Bonus = +2
- **PATH B (Clean):** 2-Up = +1, 2-Up Bonus = +1
- Breakaway (gap above first candle) = +1
**BEARISH SIGNALS:**
- FTFC Base (15m close < previous 15m close) = +1
- FTFC Bonus (price clears 15th candle low) = +1
- **PATH A (Sweep):** Short Grab = +1, Low Hold Bonus = +2
- **PATH B (Clean):** 2-Down = +1, 2-Down Bonus = +1
- Breakaway (gap below first candle) = +1
#### **Path Detection Logic**
The indicator automatically determines which path the market is following:
**PATH A: SWEEP PATH**
- Activated when previous 15m low (bull) or high (bear) is breached
- Indicates liquidity grab before reversal
- Includes powerful +2 bonus for "Hold" confirmations
- Mutually exclusive with Path B
**PATH B: CLEAN PATH**
- Activated when previous 15m low (bull) or high (bear) holds
- Indicates strong directional momentum without sweep
- Cleaner price action but smaller point potential
- Mutually exclusive with Path A
This mutual exclusivity prevents double-counting and ensures signal accuracy.

### **🎨 How to Use**
#### **Installation**
1. Add indicator to your 1-minute chart
2. The dashboard appears as a table overlay (default: top right)
3. No additional indicators required - this is a complete system
#### **Reading the Dashboard**
**Top Section - Confluence Meter:**
- Shows current bull/bear scores with visual dot meters
- Background color changes based on confluence strength:
- **Bright Green/Red** = 5+ points (strong directional bias)
- **Medium Green/Red** = 3+ points (moderate bias)
- **Orange** = 3+ points both sides (conflicting signals)
- **Gray** = Low confluence (choppy conditions)
**Signal Panels Section:**
- Each row shows a signal type with bull/bear lights side-by-side
- Active signals (🟢🔴) contribute to the total score
- Building signals (🟡) indicate potential setups forming
- Unavailable paths (▪️) show which exclusive path is blocked
#### **Trading Strategy**
**High-Probability Long Entries:**
- Bull score ≥ 5 AND bear score ≤ 1
- Multiple green lights active in signal panels
- PATH A or PATH B showing full completion
- Consider entry on pullback to key 15m level
**High-Probability Short Entries:**
- Bear score ≥ 5 AND bull score ≤ 1
- Multiple red lights active in signal panels
- PATH A or PATH B showing full completion
- Consider entry on rally to key 15m level
**Avoid Trading When:**
- Both scores are 3+ (conflicting signals)
- No path is showing active/building status
- Score is below 3 on both sides (low confluence)
#### **Risk Management**
- Use 15m swing high/low for stop placement
- Target opposing 15m level or previous session extremes
- Scale out at partial targets when confluence decreases
- Best results when combined with proper position sizing
***
### **⚙️ Customization**
**Dashboard Settings:**

All-in-One Momentum Composite The Four Components (and Why They're Chosen)
RSI (Relative Strength Index) – Classic overbought/oversold oscillator (14-period default). Measures speed and change of price movements.
Stochastic (%D line) – Smoothened momentum indicator that compares closing price to the price range over a period. Excellent at spotting reversals in ranging markets.
WaveTrend – Very popular in crypto and forex communities (originally by LazyBear). It’s essentially a momentum oscillator based on overbought/oversold channels, similar to a faster, smoother RSI/Stochastic hybrid. Known for early divergence signals and clean crossovers.
MACD Histogram – Captures momentum changes and trend strength via the difference between fast and slow EMAs. The histogram shows acceleration/deceleration.

Acceptance/Rejection State Machine
Real-time market regime identification with six distinct states:
🟢 Accepted Long
Price moving away from VWAP with expanding bullish delta
Distance from VWAP increasing
Volume confirming the move
Indicates real buying pressure—trade WITH the move
🟢 Accepted Short
Price moving away from VWAP with expanding bearish delta
Distance from VWAP increasing
Volume confirming the move
Indicates real selling pressure—trade WITH the move
🟠 Fade Long
Price extended beyond threshold (>1.5 ATR above VWAP)
Delta not supporting the extension
Volume participation absent or diminishing
Potential mean-reversion short setup
🟠 Fade Short
Price extended beyond threshold (>1.5 ATR below VWAP)
Delta not supporting the extension
Volume participation absent or diminishing
Potential mean-reversion long setup
⚪ Chop
Price compressed near VWAP
Bollinger Bands tight (width compressed)

Delta ratio (bull/bear volume balance)
Delta state (Expanding/Compressing)
High-contrast design for instant readability
🎯 HOW TO USE
For Trend Trading:
Accepted Long/Short backgrounds indicate confirmed participation—stay with the trend
Strong moves typically travel 1-1.5 ATR from VWAP with delta support
Use VWAP as dynamic support/resistance
Combine with momentum indicators (MACD, RSI) for confluence
Price above VWAP + Accepted Long state = bullish bias
Price below VWAP + Accepted Short state = bearish bias
For Mean Reversion:
Fade Long/Short states signal overextension without participation
Price beyond 1.5 ATR from VWAP with weak delta = potential reversal
Look for price return to VWAP when extended
Bollinger Band extremes + Fade state = high-probability mean reversion setup
VWAP acts as mean reversion anchor during range-bound sessions
For Risk Management:
Chop state = avoid new entries
Bollinger Band compression + Chop = pre-expansion zone (wait for breakout)
Delta compression after strong move = early exhaustion warning
State transitions (Accepted → Neutral → Fade) = tighten stops
Signal Confirmation:
Strongest setups occur when multiple factors align:
BB breakout + Accepted state + price above/below VWAP
Price rejection at BB bands + Fade state
VWAP support/resistance hold + state transition
Delta expansion + distance increasing + trend direction

[AlscapeLabs] HTF Candle Stack (Multi-Timeframe)
Overview
The HTF Candle Stack (Multi-TF) indicator is a powerful visualization tool designed to overlay high-timeframe (HTF) price action directly onto your current chart, independent of the chart's price scale. This gives traders a clear, aligned, and non-overlapping view of simultaneous price movements across customizable timeframes.
By stacking the candles horizontally next to the chart's price action, the indicator allows for quick identification of multi-timeframe correlation, trend confluence, and key levels without switching chart timeframes.
Key Features
6 Independent Stacks: Configure up to 6 separate timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H, Daily, Weekly) to view the complete market fractals from micro to macro.
Price-Aligned Visualization : All HTF candle stacks are perfectly aligned with the main chart's vertical price axis
Replay Mode Safe : Includes dedicated logic to prevent "duplicate candles" during Bar Replay, ensuring accurate backtesting and historical analysis.
Toggleable Stacks : Each stack can be individually enabled or disabled via input settings
Dynamic Spacing : The distance between active stacks is automatically calculated and adjusted based on the visibility of the preceding stack.
Settings Guide
