Artaking 2Components of the Indicator:
Moving Averages:
Short-Term Moving Average (MA): This is a 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) applied to the closing price. It is used to track the short-term trend of the market.
Long-Term Moving Average (MA): This is a 200-period SMA used to track the long-term trend.
Day Trading Moving Average: A 20-period SMA is used specifically for day trading signals, focusing on shorter-term price movements.
Purpose:
The crossing of these moving averages (short-term crossing above or below long-term) provides basic buy and sell signals, indicative of potential trend reversals or continuations.
ADX (Average Directional Index) for Trend Strength:
ADX Calculation: The ADX is calculated using a 14-period length with 14-period smoothing. The ADX value indicates the strength of a trend, regardless of direction.
Strong Trend Condition: The indicator considers a trend to be strong if the ADX value is above 25. This threshold helps filter out trades during weak or sideways markets.
Purpose:
To ensure that the strategy only generates signals when there is a strong trend, thus avoiding whipsaws in low volatility or range-bound conditions.
Support Levels:
Support Level Calculation: The indicator calculates the lowest close over the last 100 periods. This level is used to identify significant support zones where the price might find a floor.
Purpose:
Support levels are critical in identifying potential areas where the price might bounce, making them ideal for setting stop losses or identifying buy opportunities.
Volatility Spike (Proxy for News Trading):
ATR (Average True Range) Calculation: The indicator uses a 14-period ATR to measure market volatility. A volatility spike is identified when the ATR is greater than 1.5 times the 14-period SMA of the ATR.
Purpose:
This serves as a proxy for news events or other sudden market movements that could make the market unpredictable. The indicator avoids generating signals during these periods to reduce the risk of being caught in a volatile, potentially news-driven move.
Fibonacci Retracement Levels:
61.8% Fibonacci Level: Calculated from the highest high and lowest low over the long MA period, this retracement level is widely regarded as a significant support or resistance level.
Purpose:
Position traders often use Fibonacci levels to identify potential reversal points. The indicator incorporates the 61.8% level to fine-tune entries and exits.
Candlestick Patterns for Price Action Trading:
Bullish Engulfing Pattern: A bullish reversal pattern where a green candle fully engulfs the previous red candle.
Bearish Engulfing Pattern: A bearish reversal pattern where a red candle fully engulfs the previous green candle.
Purpose:
These patterns are classic signals used in price action trading to identify potential reversals at key levels, especially when they align with other conditions like support/resistance or Fibonacci levels.
Signal Generation:
The indicator generates buy and sell signals by combining the above elements:
Buy Signal:
A buy signal is triggered when:
The short-term MA crosses above the long-term MA (indicating a potential uptrend).
The trend is strong (ADX > 25).
The current price is near or below the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, suggesting a potential reversal.
No significant volatility spike is detected, ensuring the market isn’t reacting unpredictably to news.
Sell Signal:
A sell signal is triggered when:
The short-term MA crosses below the long-term MA (indicating a potential downtrend).
The trend is strong (ADX > 25).
The current price is near or above the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, suggesting potential resistance.
No significant volatility spike is detected.
Day Trading Signals:
Independent of the main trend signals, the indicator also generates intraday buy and sell signals when the price crosses above or below the 20-period day trading MA.
Price Action Signals:
The indicator can trigger buy or sell signals based purely on price action, such as the occurrence of bullish or bearish engulfing patterns. This is optional and can be enabled or disabled.
Alerts:
The indicator includes built-in alert conditions that notify the trader when a buy or sell signal is generated. This allows traders to act immediately without having to constantly monitor the charts.
Practical Application:
This indicator is versatile and can be used across various trading styles:
Position Trading: The long-term MA, Fibonacci retracement, and ADX provide a solid foundation for identifying long-term trends and potential entry/exit points.
Day Trading: The short-term MA and day trading MA offer quick signals for intraday trading.
Price Action: Candlestick pattern recognition allows for precise entry points based on market sentiment and behavior.
News Trading: The volatility spike filter helps avoid trading during periods of market instability, often driven by news events.
Conclusion:
The Comprehensive Trading Strategy Indicator is a robust tool designed to help traders navigate various market conditions by integrating multiple strategies into a single, coherent framework. It provides clear, actionable signals while filtering out potentially dangerous trades during volatile or weak market conditions. Whether you're a long-term trader, a day trader, or someone who relies on price action, this indicator can be a valuable addition to your trading toolkit.
Enhanced Forex IndicatorDescription of the "Enhanced Forex Indicator"
The "Enhanced Forex Indicator" is designed for traders who want a comprehensive technical analysis tool on the TradingView platform. This script integrates Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), support and resistance zones, and candlestick pattern recognition to provide actionable trading signals, particularly useful for Forex and other financial markets. The script is suitable for intraday trading and swing trading.
Components of the Indicator
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
Short EMA (Blue Line): Faster responding average, good for identifying recent trend changes.
Long EMA (Red Line): Slower moving average, helps in confirming longer-term trends.
Support and Resistance Zones:
Resistance Zone (Red): Area where potential selling pressure could overcome buying pressure, halting price increases temporarily or reversing them.
Support Zone (Green): Area where potential buying pressure could overcome selling pressure, supporting prices and preventing them from falling further.
Candlestick Patterns:
Bullish Engulfing Pattern (Green Triangle Up 'BE'): Suggests a potential upward reversal or start of a bullish trend.
Bearish Engulfing Pattern (Red Triangle Down 'BE'): Indicates a potential downward reversal or start of a bearish trend.
Buy/Sell Signals:
Buy Signal (Green Label 'BUY'): Triggered when the price is above both EMAs and a bullish engulfing pattern is detected.
Sell Signal (Red Label 'SELL'): Triggered when the price is below both EMAs and a bearish engulfing pattern is detected.
Trading Setup:
Entry: Consider entering a buy position when the 'BUY' signal appears, indicating bullish conditions. Enter a sell position when the 'SELL' signal appears, indicating bearish conditions.
Exit: Look for closing signals opposite your entry or use predefined take profit and stop loss levels. For instance, exit a buy position on a 'SELL' signal or when the price drops below the support zone.
Risk Management:
Set stop losses just below the support zone for buy orders and above the resistance zone for sell orders to protect against significant losses.
Adjust position sizes according to your risk tolerance and account balance.
Considerations:
Use this indicator in conjunction with other analysis tools and fundamental data to confirm signals and strengthen your trading strategy.
Periodically backtest the strategy based on this indicator to ensure its effectiveness in current market conditions.
Optimization:
Adjust the lengths of the EMAs and the buffer size of the support and resistance zones to better fit the asset's volatility and your trading timeframe.
IU Engulfing Candlestick PatternDISCRIPTION
📈 The IU Engulfing Candlestick Pattern indicator spotlights both bullish and bearish engulfing formations in real‑time. It shades each pattern with a transparent box and drops a concise label so you can catch potential reversals at a glance—no clutter, no noise, just the candles that matter.
USER INPUTS :
1. Pattern Recognition Based on = “Both” | “Wicks” | “Body” ( Default Both )
• Both → only highlights candles that satisfy **both** wick‑and‑body engulfing rules
• Wicks → checks full candle range (high‑to‑low)
• Body → checks only the real bodies (open‑to‑close)
2. Show Labels ( Default true )
If ticked then it will show the text as "Bullish Engulfing" or "Bearish Engulfing".
3. Show The Box ( Default true)
if ticked then it will show the green or red boxes.
INDICATOR LOGIC:
🔹 Bullish Engulfing (green box)
– Current bar closes higher than it opens and fully “wraps” the prior bar per your chosen rule.
🔹 Bearish Engulfing (red box)
– Current bar closes lower than it opens and fully “wraps” the prior bar per your chosen rule.
🔸 When a pattern confirms:
1. The script records the local high/low range.
2. Draws a semi‑transparent box spanning the engulfing pair.
3. Prints a compact up/down label exactly at the reaction point.
4. Fires a once‑per‑bar alert (“Bullish Engulfing” / “Bearish Engulfing”) you can route to webhooks or notifications.
WHY IT IS UNIQUE:
✨ Combines classic body‑only engulfing with an optional wick filter, letting traders demand stricter confirmation when markets are noisy.
✨ Box overlays visually segment the engulfed range—clearer than single‑bar markers.
✨ Lightweight: one input, zero repaint, and capped at 500 boxes to keep charts responsive.
✨ Ready‑to‑use alerts—no extra code needed for automation.
HOW USER CAN BENIFIT FROM IT :
- Spot early reversal zones or continuation thrusts without scanning candle by candle.
- Pair the alerts with trading bots, TradingView strategy testers, or mobile push notifications.
- Adapt the strictness (Body vs. Wicks vs. Both) to suit different assets, timeframes, or volatility regimes.
- Use the colored range boxes as dynamic support/resistance references for entries, targets, and stop‑loss placement.
📌 Tip: Test on multiple instruments and timeframes to find the sweet spot that matches your risk profile. This script is for educational purposes—always combine with sound risk management and confirm signals with broader market context.

Month: Divided into four approximate weeks (Days 1-7, 8-14, 15-21, 22-end).
Week: Divided into four 42-hour blocks, starting from Sunday at 00:00.
Day: Divided into four 6-hour blocks.
Hour: Divided into four 15-minute blocks.
Minute: Divided into four 15-second blocks.
Flexible Display Options: Visualize the quadrants as either a full Background Color overlay or a Bar Overlay that colors the price bars directly.
Timeframe Separators: A vertical line is automatically drawn at the beginning of each selected timeframe (e.g., at the start of each new day when "Day" is selected), making it easy to see where each period begins.
Full Color Customization: All four quadrant colors are user-definable, along with a global transparency setting to ensure the indicator complements your chart without obscuring price action.
Timezone-Aware: All calculations are performed based on a user-selected timezone from a dropdown menu, ensuring accuracy and consistency across different markets and trading sessions. As an added option, there is a manual input if the timezone is not available.
How to Use
Add to Chart: Add the "Timeframe Quadrants" indicator to your chart.
Open Settings: Hover over the indicator's name on your chart and click the Settings (gear) icon.
Configure the Indicator:
Timeframe: Select the primary time period you want to divide (e.g., "Day", "Week", "Hour").
Display Method: Choose whether you want the quadrants to appear as a Background Color or a Bar Overlay.
Timezone: Select the desired timezone from the dropdown menu. This is crucial for aligning the quadrants with specific market sessions (e.g., "America/New_York" for the NYSE session).
Quadrant Colors: Customize the color for each of the four quadrants.
Transparency %: Adjust the transparency of the colors to your preference.
Underlying Concepts
This script operates by using Pine Script's built-in time and date variables. It identifies the current bar's position within the user-selected timeframe (timeframe_choice) and assigns it to one of four quadrants based on pre-defined logic. For example, when "Day" is selected, it uses the hour() function to determine which 6-hour block the current bar falls into. The vertical separator lines are generated by detecting a change in the relevant time unit (e.g., ta.change(dayofmonth)), which marks the first bar of a new period.
Disclaimer: This tool is intended for visual analysis and pattern recognition. It does not generate buy or sell signals and should be used in conjunction with your own trading strategy and risk management. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
ATR Trailing Stop with ATR Targets [v6]What the Indicator Does
This custom TradingView indicator is designed for active traders who want to automate and visualize their trailing stop management and target setting, using true market volatility. It combines the Average True Range (ATR) with dynamic market structure logic to:
Trail a stop-loss behind major swings in real time, using 2×ATR (adjustable) from the highest high in uptrends or the lowest low in downtrends.
Flip trading bias between bullish and bearish when the stop is breached.
Identify and plot three profit targets (at 1, 2, and 3 ATR from the breakout/flip point) after every stop-flip, helping traders scale out or set take-profits objectively.
Maintain a visible presence on your chart every bar to avoid indicator errors, with color and labeling for clear distinction between long/short phases.
How the Indicator Works
1. ATR Calculation
ATR Period and Multiplier: You select your preferred ATR length (default is 14 bars) and a multiplier (default is 2.0).
Volatility Adjustment: ATR measures the average "true" bar range, so the trailing stop and targets adapt to current volatility.
2. Trailing Stop Logic
Uptrend (bullish bias): The indicator tracks the highest high made since the last bearish-to-bullish flip and sets the stop at - .
The stop only raises (never lowers) during an uptrend, protecting gains in strong moves.
Downtrend (bearish bias): Tracks the lowest low made since the last bullish-to-bearish flip, with stop at + .
The stop only lowers (never raises) in a downtrend.
Flip Point: If price closes through the trailing stop, the current bias “flips,” and the logic reverses (bullish to bearish or vice versa). At the new close, flip price and bar index are stored for target calculation.
3. ATR Targets after Flip
After each stop flip:
Three targets—based on the new close price—are calculated and plotted:
Long flip (new bull bias): Target1 = close + 1×ATR, Target2 = close + 2×ATR, Target3 = close + 3×ATR.
Short flip (new bear bias): Target1 = close - 1×ATR, Target2 = close - 2×ATR, Target3 = close - 3×ATR.
These targets help with scaling out, partial profit-taking, or setting automated orders.
4. Visual Feedback
Trailing stop line: Green for long bias, red for short bias.
Targets: Distinct color-coded circles at 1, 2, 3 ATR levels from the most recent flip.
Flip Labels: Mark the bar and price where bias flipped (“Long Flip” or “Short Flip”) for quick pattern recognition.
Subtle background shading: Ensures TradingView's requirement for “indicator output every bar.”
How to Use This Indicator
Parameter Setup
ATR Period and Multiplier: Adjust to match the timeframe and volatility of your instrument.
Lower periods/multipliers for short-term/volatile trading.
Higher values for smoother signals or higher timeframes.
Starting Trend: Set to match the expected initial bias if the instrument has strong trend characteristics.
Trading Application
1. Daily Bias Approach
Establish your bias in line with your trading plan (e.g., only trade long if price is above the previous day's high, short below the previous day's low).
Only look for trades in the indicator's current bias direction, as expressed by the stop and background color.
2. Entry
Use the indicator as a real-time confirmation or trailing stop for your entries.
Breakout: Enter when price establishes the current bias, using the trailing stop as your risk level.
Reversal: Wait for a bias flip after an extended move; enter in the direction of the new bias.
VWAP Rebound: Combine with a VWAP bounce—enter only if the indicator bias supports your direction.
3. Exits/Targets
Trailing stop management: Move your stop according to the plotted line; exit if your stop is hit.
Profit-taking: Scale out or take profits as price approaches each ATR-based target.
Use the dynamic labeling to identify reversal flips and reset your plan if stopped or the bias changes.
4. Market Context
Filter and frame setups by watching correlated indicators (DXY, VIX, AUDJPY, put/call ratio) and upcoming news; trade only in the daily bias direction for best consistency.
5. Practical Tips
Combine this indicator with your custom watchlist and alert settings to get notified on flips or targets.
Review the last label ("Long Flip"/"Short Flip") and targets to plan partial exits.
Remember: ATR adapts to volatility, so the stop and targets stay proportionate even when price action shifts.
Metatron Lines (Highs & Lows Geometry)Metatron Lines
Hey TradingView community! 👋
I wanted to share something I've been working on that might help you see market structure from a different angle. This indicator connects pivot highs and lows using geometric patterns, creating what I call "Metatron Lines."
What it does (simply put):
- Finds significant highs and lows on your chart
- Draws lines connecting these points to reveal hidden geometric relationships
- Shows you the underlying structure that price tends to respect
Why I built this:
I noticed that markets often move in patterns that aren't immediately obvious. Sometimes the most important levels aren't the obvious support and resistance lines, but the intersections and angles created by connecting multiple pivot points. This tool helps visualize those relationships.
How it might help you:
- Pattern Recognition : Spot geometric formations that traditional analysis might miss
- Support/Resistance : See where multiple geometric lines converge to create strong levels
- Market Structure : Better understand how price flows and where it might find obstacles
- Confluence Areas : Identify zones where multiple geometric elements align
A few honest thoughts:
This isn't a magic bullet or a guaranteed profit maker (nothing is!). It's simply another lens through which to view price action. Some traders find geometric analysis helpful, others prefer different approaches - and that's perfectly fine.
I've tried to make it customizable so you can adjust it to fit your trading style and timeframe. The default settings work well for most instruments, but feel free to experiment.
Settings you can adjust:
- Pivot detection sensitivity
- Number of connection points
- Line colors and styles
- Which connections to show (highs, lows, or both)
I hope some of you find this useful! I'm always learning from this community, so if you have suggestions for improvements or different ways to use it, I'd love to hear them.
Trade safe and trust your process! 📈

*Compatible with Pine Script v6 | No repainting | Lightweight performance*
Flux Capacitor (FC)# Flux Capacitor
**A volume-weighted, outlier-resistant momentum oscillator designed to expose hidden directional pressure from institutional participants.**
---
### Why "Flux Capacitor"?
The name pays homage to the fictional energy core in *Back to the Future* — an invisible engine that powers movement. Similarly, this indicator detects whether price movement is being powered by real market participation (volume) or if it's coasting without conviction.
---
### Methodology
The Flux Capacitor fuses three statistical layers:
- **Normalized Momentum**: `(Close – Open) / ATR`
Controls for raw price size and volatility.
- **Volume Scaling**:
Amplifies the effect of price moves that occur with elevated volume.
- **Robust Normalization**:
- *Winsorization* caps outlier spikes.
- *MAD-Z scoring* normalizes the signal across assets (crypto, futures, stocks).
- This produces consistent scaling across timeframes and symbols.
The result is a smooth oscillator that reliably indicates **liquidity-backed momentum** — not just price movement.
---
### Signal Events
- **Divergence (D)**: Price makes higher highs or lower lows, but Flux does not.
- **Absorption (A)**: Candle shows high volume and small body, while Flux opposes the candle direction — indicates smart money stepping in.
- **Compression (◆)**: High volume with low momentum — potential breakout zone.
- **Zero-Cross**: Indicates directional regime flip.
- **Flux Acceleration**: Histogram shows pressure rate of change.
- **Regime Background**: Color fades with weakening trend conviction.
All signals are color-coded and visually compact for easy pattern recognition.
---
### Interpreting Divergence & Absorption Correctly
Signal strength improves significantly when it appears **in the correct zone**:
#### Divergence:
| Signal | Zone | Meaning | Strength |
|--------|------------|------------------------------------------|--------------|
| Green D | Below 0 | Bullish reversal forming in weakness | **Strong** |
| Green D | Above 0 | Bullish, but less convincing | Moderate |
| Red D | Above 0 | Bearish reversal forming in strength | **Strong** |
| Red D | Below 0 | Bearish continuation — low warning value | Weak |
#### Absorption:
| Signal | Zone | Meaning | Strength |
|--------|------------|-----------------------------------------|--------------|
| Green A | Below 0 | Buyers absorbing panic-selling | **Strong** |
| Green A | Above 0 | Support continuation | Moderate |
| Red A | Above 0 | Sellers absorbing FOMO buying | **Strong** |
| Red A | Below 0 | Trend continuation — not actionable | Weak |
Look for **absorption or divergence signals in “enemy territory”** for the most actionable entries.
---
### Reducing Visual Footprint
If your chart shows a long line of numbers across the top of the Flux Capacitor pane (e.g. "FC 14 20 9 ... Bottom Right"), it’s due to TradingView’s *status line input display*.
**To fix this**:
Right-click the indicator pane → **Settings** → **Status Line** tab → uncheck “Show Indicator Arguments”.
This frees up vertical space so top-edge signals (like red `D` or yellow `◆`) remain visible and unobstructed.
---
### Features
- Original MAD-Z based momentum design
- True volume-based divergence and absorption logic
- Built-in alerts for all signal types
- Works across timeframes (1-min to weekly)
- Minimalist, responsive layout
- 25+ customizable parameters
- No future leaks, no repainting
---
### Usage Scenarios
- **Trend confirmation**: Flux > 0 confirms bullish trend strength
- **Reversal detection**: Divergence or absorption in opposite territory = high-probability reversal
- **Breakout anticipation**: Compression signal inside range often precedes directional move
- **Momentum shifts**: Watch for zero-crosses + flux acceleration spikes
---
### ⚠ Visual Note for BTC, ETH, Crude Oil & Futures
These high-priced or rapidly accelerating instruments can visually compress any linear oscillator. You may notice the Flux Capacitor’s line appears "flat" or muted on these assets — especially over long lookbacks.
> **This does not affect signal validity.** Divergence, absorption, and compression triggers still fire based on underlying logic — only the line’s amplitude appears reduced due to scaling constraints.

Volume Flow RatioVolume Flow Ratio (VFR) Indicator
Overview
The Volume Flow Ratio (VFR) is a sophisticated volume analysis tool that measures current trading volume relative to the maximum volume of the previous period. Unlike traditional volume indicators that show raw volume or simple moving averages, VFR provides context by comparing current activity to recent maximum activity levels.
Core Features
1. Split Period Analysis
- Multiple Timeframe Options:
- Daily: Compares to previous day's maximum
- Weekly: Week-to-week comparison
- NYSE Weekly: Specialized for stock market trading (Monday-Friday only)
- Monthly: Month-to-month analysis
- Quarterly: Quarter-to-quarter perspective
- Yearly: Year-over-year volume comparison
2. Ratio-Based Measurement
- Displays volume as a ratio (0 to 1+) rather than raw numbers
- 1.0 represents volume equal to previous period's maximum
- Example: If previous max was 50,000 contracts:
- Current volume of 25,000 shows as 0.5
- Current volume of 75,000 shows as 1.5
3. Triple Coloring Modes
- Moving Average Based:
- Compares current ratio to its moving average
- Customizable MA period
- Green: Above MA (higher than average activity)
- Red: Below MA (lower than average activity)
- Previous Candle Comparison:
- Simple increase/decrease from previous bar
- Green: Higher than previous bar
- Red: Lower than previous bar
- Candle Color Based:
- Syncs with price action
- Green: Bullish candles (close > open)
- Red: Bearish candles (close < open)
Primary Use Cases
1. Volume Profile Analysis
- Perfect for traders who need to understand when markets are most active
- Helps identify unusual volume spikes relative to recent history
- Useful for timing entries and exits based on market participation
2. Market Activity Traders
Ideal for traders who:
- Need to identify high-liquidity periods
- Want to avoid low-volume periods
- Look for volume breakouts or divergences
- Trade based on institutional participation levels
3. Mean Reversion Traders
Helps identify:
- Overextended volume conditions (potential reversals)
- Volume exhaustion points
- Return to normal volume levels after spikes
4. Momentum Traders
Useful for:
- Confirming trend strength through volume
- Identifying potential trend exhaustion
- Validating breakouts with volume confirmation
Advantages Over Traditional Volume Indicators
1. Contextual Analysis
- Shows relative strength rather than raw numbers
- Easier to compare across different time periods
- Automatically adjusts to changing market conditions
2. Period-Specific Insights
- Respects natural market cycles (daily, weekly, monthly)
- Special handling for NYSE trading days
- Eliminates weekend noise in stock market analysis
3. Flexible Visualization
- Three distinct coloring methods for different trading styles
- Clear reference line at 1.0 for quick analysis
- Histogram style for easy pattern recognition
Best Practices
For Day Traders
- Use Daily split for intraday volume patterns
- MA coloring mode with shorter periods (5-10)
- Focus on ratios during market hours
For Swing Traders
- Weekly or NYSE Weekly splits
- Longer MA periods (15-20)
- Look for sustained volume patterns
For Position Traders
- Monthly or Quarterly splits
- Candle color mode for trend confirmation
- Focus on major volume shifts
Limitations
- Requires one full period to establish baseline
- May be less effective in extremely low volume conditions
- NYSE Weekly mode specific to stock market hours
This indicator is particularly valuable for traders who understand that volume is a crucial component of price action but need a more sophisticated way to analyze it than simple volume bars. It's especially useful for those who trade based on market participation levels and need to quickly identify whether current volume is significant relative to recent history.
Heiken Ashi Supertrend ATR-SL StrategyThis indicator combines Heikin Ashi candle pattern analysis with Supertrend to generate high-probability trading signals with built-in risk management. It identifies potential entries and exits based on specific Heikin Ashi candlestick formations while providing automated ATR-based stop loss management.
Trading Logic:
The system generates long signals when a green Heikin Ashi candle forms with no bottom wick (indicating strong bullish momentum). Short signals appear when a red Heikin Ashi candle forms with no top wick (showing strong bearish momentum). The absence of wicks on these candles signals a high-conviction market move in the respective direction.
Exit signals are triggered when:
1. An opposite pattern forms (red candle with no top wick exits longs; green candle with no bottom wick exits shorts)
2. The ATR-based stop loss is hit
3. The break-even stop is activated and then hit
Technical Approach:
- Select Heiken Ashi Canldes on your Trading View chart. Entried are based on HA prices.
- Supertrend and ATR-based stop losses use real price data (not HA values) for trend determination
- ATR-based stop losses automatically adjust to market volatility
- Break-even functionality moves the stop to entry price once price moves a specified ATR multiple in your favor
Risk Management:
- Default starting capital: 1000 units
- Default risk per trade: 10% of equity (customizable in strategy settings)
- Hard Stop Loss: Set ATR multiplier (default: 2.0) for automatic stop placement
- Break Even: Configure ATR threshold (default: 1.0) to activate break-even stops
- Appropriate position sizing relative to equity and stop distance
Customization Options:
- Supertrend Settings:
- Enable/disable Supertrend filtering (trade only in confirmed trend direction)
- Adjust Factor (default: 3.0) to change sensitivity
- Modify ATR Period (default: 10) to adapt to different timeframes
Visual Elements:
- Green triangles for long entries, blue triangles for short entries
- X-marks for exits and stop loss hits
- Color-coded position background (green for long, blue for short)
- Clearly visible stop loss lines (red for hard stop, white for break-even)
- Comprehensive position information label with entry price and stop details
Implementation Notes:
The indicator tracks positions internally and maintains state across bars to properly manage stop levels. All calculations use confirmed bars only, with no repainting or lookahead bias. The system is designed for swing trading on timeframes from 1-hour and above, where Heikin Ashi patterns tend to be more reliable.
This indicator is best suited for traders looking to combine the pattern recognition strengths of Heikin Ashi candles with the trend-following capabilities of Supertrend, all while maintaining disciplined risk management through automated stops.
Opening Range BoxIndicator Name: Opening Range Box with Extensions
Author: YanivBull
Description:
The Opening Range Box with Extensions is a powerful tool designed to visualize the trading range established during the first 30 minutes of a market session, a critical period for setting the day's trend. This indicator plots a box representing the high and low prices formed within this opening range, with dashed extension lines projecting these levels forward throughout the session.
Its primary purpose is to identify the boundaries of the initial trend at the start of trading. When these boundaries are breached, it serves as a trigger for potential trading opportunities: a breakout above the box high signals a possible long entry, while a breakdown below the box low indicates a potential short entry. The indicator also includes historical boxes for up to 5 previous days (configurable), allowing traders to analyze past opening ranges and their extensions for context and pattern recognition.
Key Features:
Customizable session start time (hour and minute) to adapt to various markets (e.g., NYSE, DAX, etc.).
Displays the current session's opening range box in blue and historical boxes in gray.
Plots dashed extension lines from the high and low of each box, limited to 500 bars or the end of the trading day.
Adjustable number of historical days (1-20, default 5).
Usage:
Set the Session Start Hour and Session Start Minute according to your market's opening time (relative to your chart's timezone, e.g., UTC+2). Watch for price action around the box boundaries—breakouts above the high or below the low can be used as signals for initiating long or short trades, respectively. Combine with other technical analysis tools for confirmation.
This indicator is ideal for day traders looking to capitalize on early session momentum and breakout strategies.
