Really Key Levels█ OVERVIEW
This indicator shows the most useful and universally used key trading levels (and only those) in a visually appealing way. Its originality lies in the fact that it was developed due to being unable to find an indicator that wasn't cluttered with other features or far less relevant levels, or one that would indicate the bar causing the level (i.e., not just using a horizontal line over the whole chart), or one that was well-programmed and didn’t frequently refresh for many seconds for no obvious reason, taking far too long to do so for such a seemingly simple indicator.
█ FEATURES
Shows the most frequently used key levels in a visually appealing way
Indicates the bar that causes the level, with the line starting at that bar
Works correctly and consistently on both RTH and ETH charts
Lines can be optionally extended both left and right, if the user prefers
Works with US/European stocks and US futures (at least)
Configurable futures regular session (default time is for CME futures, e.g., ES/NQ, etc.)
Users can configure line colour, style, and thickness
Adjustable label locations to prevent overlap with other indicator labels
Nice defaults that look good, and a well-contrasting label text colour
Well-documented, high-quality, open-source code for those who are interested
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator shows the following levels by a line starting at the bar that causes them:
Current Day RTH High/Low (visible and updated only during RTH; visible with no further updates in the post-market)
Current Day RTH Open (only after the RTH open)
Pre-Market High/Low (as it develops in the pre-market and fixed after RTH open)
Previous Day RTH Close
Previous Day RTH High/Low
Previous Day Pre-Market High-Low
Two Days Ago RTH Close
Other levels may be added in future versions, if requested and if they are Really Key Levels.
Regarding futures: despite being a 23-hour market (for CME futures, 5 p.m. the previous day to 4 p.m. the current day), most trading activity takes place together with the RTH on stock exchanges in New York, 08:30 to 3 p.m. Central (Chicago) time. Therefore, a user-configurable regular market is defined at those times, with times before this (from 5 p.m. the previous day) being considered pre-market, and times after this (until 4 p.m.) being considered post-market.
Care was taken so that the code uses no hard-coded time zones, exchanges, or session times. For this reason, it can in principle work globally. However, it very much depends on the information provided by the exchange, which is reflected in built-in Pine Script variables (see Limitations below).
█ LIMITATIONS
Pre-market levels are not shown when viewing an RTH chart.
The indicator was developed and tested on US/European stocks and US futures. It may or may not work for stocks and futures in other countries (depending on their pre- and post-market definitions and what information the exchange provides to TradingView via the relevant built-in Pine Script variable). It does not work on other security types, especially those with a 24-hour market that don't have a uniquely defined daily close, implicit H/L time window, or a pre-market.

Adaptive ATR Limits█ OVERVIEW
This indicator plots adaptive ATR limits for intraday trading. A key feature of this indicator, which makes it different from other ATR limit indicators, is that the top and bottom ATR limit lines are always exactly one ATR apart from each other (in "auto" mode; there is also a "basic" mode, which plots the limits in the more traditional way—i.e., one ATR above the low and one ATR below the high at all times—and this can be used for comparison).
█ FEATURES
Provides an algorithm to plot the most reasonable intraday ATR top/bottom limits based on currently available information
Dynamically adapts limits as the price evolves during the day
Works correctly and consistently on both RTH and ETH charts
Has a user-selected ADR mode to base the limits on ADR instead of ATR
Option to include the current pre-market and previous day's post-market range in the calculation
Configurable ATR/ADR averaging length
Provides a visual smoothing option
Provides an information box showing the current numerical ATR/ADR values
Reasonable defaults that work well if the user changes nothing
Well-documented, high-quality, open-source code for those interested
█ HOW TO USE
At a minimum, there is nothing that needs to be set. The defaults work well. The ATR top line (red, configurable) gives you the most reasonable move given the currently available information. The line will move away from the price as the price approaches it; that is normal—it is reacting to new information. This happens until the ATR bottom limit hits the lower of the daily low and the previous day's close (in ATR mode). The ATR bottom line (green, configurable) works the same way, with reversed logic.
There is an option to use ADR instead of ATR. The ATR includes the previous day's RTH close in the range, whereas ADR does not. Another option allows the user to add the current day's pre-market range or the previous day's post-market into the current day's range, which has an effect if either of those went outside of today's RTH range, plus yesterday's RTH close (in the default ATR mode). Pre-market and post-market range is not typically included in the daily true range, so only change it if you really know you want it.
█ CONCEPTS
Most traditional ATR limit indicators plot the top ATR limit one ATR above the current daily low, and the bottom ATR limit one ATR below the current daily high. This indicator can also do that (in "basic" mode), but its value lies in its default "auto" mode, which uses an algorithm to dynamically adapt the ATR limits throughout the day, keeping them one ATR apart at all times. It tries to plot the most sensible ATR limits based on the current daily ATR, in order to provide a reasonable visual intraday target, given the available information at that point in time.
"Auto" mode is actually a weighted average of two methods: midpoint and relative (both of which can also be explicitly selected). The midpoint method places the midpoint of the ATR limit equal to the midpoint of the currently established daily range. The relative method measures the currently established daily range and calculates the position of the current price within it (as a ratio between 0 and 1). It then uses that value as a weight in a weighted average of extreme locations for the ATR limits, which are: the ATR top anchored to one ATR above the daily low, and the ATR bottom anchored to one ATR below the daily high.
The relative method is more advanced and better for most of the day; however, it can cause wild swings in the early market or pre-market before a reasonable range (as a percentage of ATR) has been established. "Auto" mode therefore takes another weighted average between the two methods, with the weight determined by the percentage of the ATR currently established within the day, more strongly weighting the calmer midpoint method before a good range is established. Once the full ATR has been achieved, the algorithm in "auto" mode will have fully switched to the relative method and will remain with that method for the rest of the day.
To explain the effect further, as an example, imagine that the price is approaching the full ATR range on the high side. At this point, the indicator will have almost fully transitioned to the second (relative) method. The lower ATR limit will now be anchored to the daily low as the price hits the upper ATR limit. If the price goes beyond the upper ATR, the lower ATR limit will stay anchored to the daily low, and the upper limit will stay anchored to one ATR above the lower limit. This allows you to see how far the price is going beyond the upper ATR limit. If the price then returns and backs off the upper ATR limit, the lower ATR limit will un-anchor from the daily low (it will actually rise, since the daily ATR range has been exceeded, so the lower ATR limit needs to come up because the actual daily range can’t fit into the ATR range anymore). The overall effect is to give you the best visual indication of where the price is in relation to a possible upper ATR-based target. Reverse this example for when the price low approaches the ATR range on the low side.
Care was taken so that the code uses no hard-coded time zones, exchanges, or session times. For this reason, it can in principle work globally. However, it very much depends on the information provided by the exchange, which is reflected in built-in Pine Script variables (see Limitations below).
█ LIMITATIONS
The indicator was developed for US/European equities and is tested on them only. It is also known to work on US futures; in this case, the whole 23-hour session is used, and the "Sessions to include in range" setting has no effect. It may or may not work as intended on security types and equities/futures for other countries.
PowerHouse SwiftEdge AI v2.10 StrategyOverview
The PowerHouse SwiftEdge AI v2.10 Strategy is a sophisticated trading system designed to identify high-probability trade setups in forex, stocks, and cryptocurrencies. By combining multi-timeframe trend analysis, momentum signals, volume confirmation, and smart money concepts (Change of Character and Break of Structure ), this strategy offers traders a robust tool to capitalize on market trends while minimizing false signals. The strategy’s unique “AI” component analyzes trends across multiple timeframes to provide a clear, actionable dashboard, making it accessible for both novice and experienced traders. The strategy is fully customizable, allowing users to tailor its filters to their trading style.
What It Does
This strategy generates Buy and Sell signals based on a confluence of technical indicators and smart money concepts. It uses:
Multi-Timeframe Trend Analysis: Confirms the market’s direction by analyzing trends on the 1-hour (60M), 4-hour (240M), and daily (D) timeframes.
Momentum Filter: Ensures trades align with strong price movements to avoid choppy markets.
Volume Filter: Validates signals with above-average volume to confirm market participation.
Breakout Filter: Requires price to break key levels for added confirmation.
Smart Money Signals (CHoCH/BOS): Identifies reversals (CHoCH) and trend continuations (BOS) based on pivot points.
AI Trend Dashboard: Summarizes trend strength, confidence, and predictions across timeframes, helping traders make informed decisions without needing to analyze complex data manually.
The strategy also plots dynamic support and resistance trendlines, take-profit (TP) levels, and “Get Ready” signals to alert users of potential setups before they fully develop. Trades are executed with predefined take-profit and stop-loss levels for disciplined risk management.
How It Works
The strategy integrates multiple components to create a cohesive trading system:
Multi-Timeframe Trend Analysis:
The strategy evaluates trends on three timeframes (1H, 4H, Daily) using Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) and Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP). A trend is considered bullish if the price is above both the EMA and VWAP, bearish if below, or neutral otherwise.
Signals are only generated when the trend on the user-selected higher timeframe aligns with the trade direction (e.g., Buy signals require a bullish higher timeframe trend). This reduces noise and ensures trades follow the broader market context.
Momentum Filter:
Measures the percentage price change between consecutive bars and compares it to a volatility-adjusted threshold (based on the Average True Range ). This ensures trades are taken only during significant price movements, filtering out low-momentum conditions.
Volume Filter (Optional):
Checks if the current volume exceeds a long-term average and shows positive short-term volume change. This confirms strong market participation, reducing the risk of false breakouts.
Breakout Filter (Optional):
Requires the price to break above (for Buy) or below (for Sell) recent highs/lows, ensuring the signal aligns with a structural shift in the market.
Smart Money Concepts (CHoCH/BOS):
Change of Character (CHoCH): Detects potential reversals when the price crosses under a recent pivot high (for Sell) or over a recent pivot low (for Buy) with a bearish or bullish candle, respectively.
Break of Structure (BOS): Confirms trend continuations when the price breaks below a recent pivot low (for Sell) or above a recent pivot high (for Buy) with strong momentum.
These signals are plotted as horizontal lines with labels, making it easy to visualize key levels.
AI Trend Dashboard:
Combines trend direction, momentum, and volatility (ATR) across timeframes to calculate a trend score. Scores above 0.5 indicate an “Up” trend, below -0.5 indicate a “Down” trend, and otherwise “Neutral.”
Displays a table summarizing trend strength (as a percentage), AI confidence (based on trend alignment), and Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) for market context.
A second table (optional) shows trend predictions for 1H, 4H, and Daily timeframes, helping traders anticipate future market direction.
Dynamic Trendlines:
Plots support and resistance lines based on recent swing lows and highs within user-defined periods (shortTrendPeriod, longTrendPeriod). These lines adapt to market conditions and are colored based on trend strength.
Why This Combination?
The PowerHouse SwiftEdge AI v2.10 Strategy is original because it seamlessly integrates traditional technical analysis (EMA, VWAP, ATR, volume) with smart money concepts (CHoCH, BOS) and a proprietary AI-driven trend analysis. Unlike standalone indicators, this strategy:
Reduces False Signals: By requiring confluence across trend, momentum, volume, and breakout filters, it minimizes trades in choppy or low-conviction markets.
Adapts to Market Context: The ATR-based momentum threshold adjusts dynamically to volatility, ensuring signals remain relevant in both trending and ranging markets.
Simplifies Decision-Making: The AI dashboard distills complex multi-timeframe data into a user-friendly table, eliminating the need for manual analysis.
Leverages Smart Money: CHoCH and BOS signals capture institutional price action patterns, giving traders an edge in identifying reversals and continuations.
The combination of these components creates a balanced system that aligns short-term trade entries with longer-term market trends, offering a unique blend of precision, adaptability, and clarity.

Supertrend X2 + CalcSize Calculator:
Size Calculator is a risk management tool that helps traders position themselves intelligently by calculating optimal position size, stop loss, and take profit levels based on account capital, ATR volatility, and personal risk tolerance. It takes the guesswork out of sizing so you can focus on execution.
Features:
✅ Risk-based position sizing
✅ ATR-based stop loss & take profit levels
✅ Dynamic leverage estimation
✅ Support for long and short positions
✅ Visual display of key levels and metrics via table
✅ Works across any timeframe with locked timeframe support
How It Works:
This tool computes the ideal position size as a % of account capital based on how much you're willing to risk per trade and how far your stop loss is (in ATR units). It calculates corresponding stop loss and take profit prices, and visually plots them along with a floating table of metrics. You can lock the timeframe used for ATR and price, keeping your risk logic stable even when changing chart views.
Customizable Inputs:
Account capital and risk tolerance
ATR-based stop loss & take profit multiples
Trade direction (Long or Short)
ATR period and locked timeframe
Optional detailed metrics display
Dual SuperTrend:
The Dual Supertrend indicator enhances the classic Supertrend strategy by layering two customizable Supertrend signals with independent ATR settings. This setup gives you a deeper, more nuanced read on trend strength and potential entry zones.
Features:
✅ Two Supertrend lines (each with adjustable ATR periods and multipliers)
✅ Optional Heikin Ashi candle smoothing for noise reduction
✅ Color-coded trend background for fast visual analysis
✅ Multi-timeframe trend table overlay (customizable)
✅ Built-in signal logic to identify "Long", "Short", or "N/A" zones
✅ Built-in alerts from Long and Short Entry Zones
How It Works:
The script calculates two Supertrend levels using separate ATR settings. Trend direction is derived from the relationship between price and each band. When the larger (slower) Supertrend flips and the smaller (faster) confirms, it signals a potential entry. The multi-timeframe table helps you align trades across different timeframes.
Customizable Inputs:
ATR Periods & Multipliers for both Supertrends
Timeframes for entry zone detection (up to 4)
Enable/disable Heikin Ashi candles for smoother trend detection
BTC Trading RobotOverview
This Pine Script strategy is designed for trading Bitcoin (BTC) by placing pending orders (BuyStop and SellStop) based on local price extremes. The script also implements a trailing stop mechanism to protect profits once a position becomes sufficiently profitable.
________________________________________
Inputs and Parameter Setup
1. Trading Profile:
o The strategy is set up specifically for BTC trading.
o The systemType input is set to 1, which means the strategy will calculate trade parameters using the BTC-specific inputs.
2. Common Trading Inputs:
o Risk Parameters: Although RiskPercent is defined, its actual use (e.g., for position sizing) isn’t implemented in this version.
o Trading Hours Filter:
SHInput and EHInput let you restrict trading to a specific hour range. If these are set (non-zero), orders will only be placed during the allowed hours.
3. BTC-Specific Inputs:
o Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) Percentages:
TPasPctBTC and SLasPctBTC are used to determine the TP and SL levels as a percentage of the current price.
o Trailing Stop Parameters:
TSLasPctofTPBTC and TSLTgrasPctofTPBTC determine when and by how much a trailing stop is applied, again as percentages of the TP.
4. Other Parameters:
o BarsN is used to define the window (number of bars) over which the local high and low are calculated.
o OrderDistPoints acts as a buffer to prevent the entry orders from being triggered too early.
________________________________________
Trade Parameter Calculation
• Price Reference:
o The strategy uses the current closing price as the reference for calculations.
• Calculation of TP and SL Levels:
o If the systemType is set to BTC (value 1), then:
Take Profit Points (Tppoints) are calculated by multiplying the current price by TPasPctBTC.
Stop Loss Points (Slpoints) are calculated similarly using SLasPctBTC.
A buffer (OrderDistPoints) is set to half of the take profit points.
Trailing Stop Levels:
TslPoints is calculated as a fraction of the TP (using TSLTgrasPctofTPBTC).
TslTriggerPoints is similarly determined, which sets the profit level at which the trailing stop will start to activate.
________________________________________
Time Filtering
• Session Control:
o The current hour is compared against SHInput (start hour) and EHInput (end hour).
o If the current time falls outside the allowed window, the script will not place any new orders.
________________________________________
Entry Orders
• Local Price Extremes:
o The strategy calculates a local high and local low using a window of BarsN * 2 + 1 bars.
• Placing Stop Orders:
o BuyStop Order:
A long entry is triggered if the current price is less than the local high minus the order distance buffer.
The BuyStop order is set to trigger at the level of the local high.
o SellStop Order:
A short entry is triggered if the current price is greater than the local low plus the order distance buffer.
The SellStop order is set to trigger at the level of the local low.
Note: Orders are only placed if there is no current open position and if the session conditions are met.
________________________________________
Trailing Stop Logic
Once a position is open, the strategy monitors profit levels to protect gains:
• For Long Positions:
o The script calculates the profit as the difference between the current price and the average entry price.
o If this profit exceeds the TslTriggerPoints threshold, a trailing stop is applied by placing an exit order.
o The stop price is set at a distance below the current price, while a limit (profit target) is also defined.
• For Short Positions:
o The profit is calculated as the difference between the average entry price and the current price.
o A similar trailing stop exit is applied if the profit exceeds the trigger threshold.
________________________________________
Summary
In essence, this strategy works by:
• Defining entry levels based on recent local highs and lows.
• Placing pending stop orders to enter the market when those levels are breached.
• Filtering orders by time, ensuring trades are only taken during specified hours.
• Implementing a trailing stop mechanism to secure profits once the trade moves favorably.
This approach is designed to automate BTC trading based on price action and dynamic risk management, although further enhancements (like dynamic position sizing based on RiskPercent) could be added for a more complete risk management system.

Supertrend Fixed TP Unified with Time Filter (MSK)Trend Strategy Based on the SuperTrend Indicator
This strategy is based on the use of the adaptive SuperTrend indicator, which takes into account the current market volatility and acts as a dynamic trailing stop. The indicator is visualized on the chart with colors that change depending on the direction of the trade: green indicates an uptrend (long), while red indicates a downtrend (short).

Описание стратегии (на русском языке)
Трендовая стратегия на основе индикатора SuperTrend
Стратегия основана на использовании адаптивного индикатора SuperTrend , который учитывает текущую волатильность рынка и играет роль динамического трейлинг-стопа. Индикатор визуализируется на графике цветом, который меняется в зависимости от направления сделки: зелёный цвет указывает на восходящий тренд (лонг), а красный — на нисходящий тренд (шорт).
Принцип работы:
Сигнал на покупку (лонг) генерируется при закрытии бара выше линии индикатора.
Сигнал на продажу (шорт) возникает при закрытии бара ниже линии индикатора.
Настройки стратегии:
Режимы торговли :
Long only : только лонговые позиции.
Short only : только шортовые позиции.
Both : разрешены оба типа сделок.
Тейк-профит :
Стратегия поддерживает простой процентный тейк-профит, что позволяет фиксировать прибыль при резком изменении цены без ожидания отката.
Уровень и значение тейк-профита визуализируются на графике. Визуализацию можно отключить в настройках.
Цветные области графика :
Лонговые и шортовые области графика выделяются цветом фона для удобства анализа.
Уровень цены :
В настройках можно задать уровень цены, который будет ограничивать выполнение сделок:
Лонговые сделки выполняются только выше указанного уровня.
Шортовые сделки выполняются только ниже указанного уровня.
Этот режим можно включать или отключать в параметрах.
Elastic Volume-Weighted Student-T TensionOverview
The Elastic Volume-Weighted Student-T Tension Bands indicator dynamically adapts to market conditions using an advanced statistical model based on the Student-T distribution. Unlike traditional Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels, this indicator leverages elastic volume-weighted averaging to compute real-time dispersion and location parameters, making it highly responsive to volatility changes while maintaining robustness against price fluctuations.
This methodology is inspired by incremental calculation techniques for weighted mean and variance, as outlined in the paper by Tony Finch:
📄 "Incremental Calculation of Weighted Mean and Variance" .
Key Features
✅ Adaptive Volatility Estimation – Uses an exponentially weighted Student-T model to dynamically adjust band width.
✅ Volume-Weighted Mean & Dispersion – Incorporates real-time volume weighting, ensuring a more accurate representation of market sentiment.
✅ High-Timeframe Volume Normalization – Provides an option to smooth volume impact by referencing a higher timeframe’s cumulative volume, reducing noise from high-variability bars.
✅ Customizable Tension Parameters – Configurable standard deviation multipliers (σ) allow for fine-tuned volatility sensitivity.
✅ %B-Like Oscillator for Relative Price Positioning – The main indicator is in form of a dedicated oscillator pane that normalizes price position within the sigma ranges, helping identify overbought/oversold conditions and potential momentum shifts.
✅ Robust Statistical Foundation – Utilizes kurtosis-based degree-of-freedom estimation, enhancing responsiveness across different market conditions.
How It Works
Volume-Weighted Elastic Mean (eμ) – Computes a dynamic mean price using an elastic weighted moving average approach, influenced by trade volume, if not volume detected in series, study takes true range as replacement.
Dispersion (eσ) via Student-T Distribution – Instead of assuming a fixed normal distribution, the bands adapt to heavy-tailed distributions using kurtosis-driven degrees of freedom.
Incremental Calculation of Variance – The indicator applies Tony Finch’s incremental method for computing weighted variance instead of arithmetic sum's of fixed bar window or arrays, improving efficiency and numerical stability.
Tension Calculation – There are 2 dispersion custom "zones" that are computed based on the weighted mean and dynamically adjusted standard student-t deviation.
%B-Like Oscillator Calculation – The oscillator normalizes the price within the band structure, with values between 0 and 1:
* 0.00 → Price is at the lower band (-2σ).
* 0.50 → Price is at the volume-weighted mean (eμ).
* 1.00 → Price is at the upper band (+2σ).
* Readings above 1.00 or below 0.00 suggest extreme movements or possible breakouts.
Recommended Usage
For scalping in lower timeframes, it is recommended to use the fixed α Decay Factor, it is in raw format for better control, but you can easily make a like of transformation to N-bar size window like in EMA-1 bar dividing 2 / decayFactor or like an RMA dividing 1 / decayFactor.
The HTF selector catch quite well Higher Time Frame analysis, for example using a Daily chart and using as HTF the 200-day timeframe, weekly or monthly.
Suitable for trend confirmation, breakout detection, and mean reversion plays.
The %B-like oscillator helps gauge momentum strength and detect divergences in price action if user prefer a clean chart without bands, this thanks to pineScript v6 force overlay feature.
Ideal for markets with volume-driven momentum shifts (e.g., futures, forex, crypto).
Customization Parameters
Fixed α Decay Factor – Controls the rate of volume weighting influence for an approximation EWMA approach instead of using sum of series or arrays, making the code lightweight & computing fast O(1).
HTF Volume Smoothing – Instead of a fixed denominator for computing α , a volume sum of the last 2 higher timeframe closed candles are used as denominator for our α weight factor. This is useful to review mayor trends like in daily, weekly, monthly.
Tension Multipliers (±σ) – Adjusts sensitivity to dispersion sigma parameter (volatility).
Oscillator Zone Fills – Visual cues for price positioning within the cloud range.
Posible Interpretations
As market within indicators relay on each individual edge, this are just some key ideas to glimpse how the indicator could be interpreted by the user:
📌 Price inside bands – Market is considered somehow "stable"; price is like resting from tension or "charging batteries" for volume spike moves.
📌 Price breaking outer bands – Potential breakout or extreme movement; watch for reversals or continuation from strong moves. Market is already in tension or generating it.
📌 Narrowing Bands – Decreasing volatility; expect contraction before expansion.
📌 Widening Bands – Increased volatility; prepare for high probability pull-back moves, specially to the center location of the bands (the mean) or the other side of them.
📌 Oscillator is just the interpretation of the price normalized across the Student-T distribution fitting "curve" using the location parameter, our Elastic Volume weighted mean (eμ) fixed at 0.5 value.
Final Thoughts
The Elastic Volume-Weighted Student-T Tension indicator provides a powerful, volume-sensitive alternative to traditional volatility bands. By integrating real-time volume analysis with an adaptive statistical model, incremental variance computation, in a relative price oscillator that can be overlayed in the chart as bands, it offers traders an edge in identifying momentum shifts, trend strength, and breakout potential. Think of the distribution as a relative "tension" rubber band in which price never leave so far alone.

👉
• Directionality of movement 🔄:
In addition to averaging the pip range, the algorithm determines the predominant direction of each candle (bullish or bearish). This translates into visual indicators (like arrows) that help identify whether, on average, the movement during that hour tends to go up or down.
• Table visualization 📈:
Finally, the information is presented in an integrated table on the chart. Each row corresponds to an hour of the day and shows the average number of pips and the direction (bullish, bearish, or neutral) for each analyzed period. This table makes it easy to quickly and practically interpret the volatility data.
By combining these features, the algorithm becomes an essential tool for traders looking to better understand market dynamics and optimize their trading strategies! 💼✨

DTFX Algo Zones [SamuraiJack Mod]CME_MINI:NQ1!
Credits
This indicator is a modified version of an open-source tool originally developed by Lux Algo. I literally modded their indicator to create the DTFX Algo Zones version, incorporating additional features and refinements. Special thanks to Lux Algo for their original work and for providing the open-source code that made this development possible.
Introduction
DTFX Algo Zones is a technical analysis indicator designed to automatically identify key supply and demand zones on your chart using market structure and Fibonacci retracements. It helps traders spot high-probability reversal areas and important support/resistance levels at a glance. By detecting shifts in market structure (such as Break of Structure and Change of Character) and highlighting bullish or bearish zones dynamically, this tool provides an intuitive framework for planning trades. The goal is to save traders time and improve decision-making by focusing attention on the most critical price zones where market bias may confirm or reverse.
Logic & Features
• Market Structure Shift Detection (BOS & CHoCH): The indicator continuously monitors price swings and marks significant structure shifts. A Break of Structure (BOS) occurs when price breaks above a previous swing high or below a swing low, indicating a continuation of the current trend. A Change of Character (ChoCH) is detected when price breaks in the opposite direction of the prior trend, often signaling an early trend reversal. These moments are visually marked on the chart, serving as anchor points for new zones. By identifying BOS and ChoCH in real-time, the DTFX Algo Zones indicator ensures you’re aware of key trend changes as they happen.
• Auto-Drawn Fibonacci Supply/Demand Zones: Upon a valid structure shift, the indicator plots a Fibonacci-based zone between the breakout point and the preceding swing high/low (the source of the move). This creates a shaded area or band of Fibonacci retracement levels (for example 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, etc.) representing a potential support zone in an uptrend or resistance zone in a downtrend. These supply/demand zones are derived from the natural retracement of the breakout move, highlighting where price is likely to pull back. Each zone is essentially an auto-generated Fibonacci retracement region tied to a market structure event, which traders can use to anticipate where the next pullback or bounce might occur.
• Dynamic Bullish and Bearish Zones: The DTFX Algo Zones indicator distinguishes bullish vs. bearish zones and updates them dynamically as new price action unfolds. Bullish zones (formed after bullish BOS/ChoCH) are typically highlighted in one color (e.g. green or blue) to indicate areas of demand/support where price may bounce upward. Bearish zones (formed after bearish BOS/ChoCH) are shown in another color (e.g. red/orange) to mark supply/resistance where price may stall or reverse downward. This color-coding and real-time updating allow traders to instantly recognize the market bias: for instance, a series of bullish zones implies an uptrend with multiple support levels on pullbacks, while consecutive bearish zones indicate a downtrend with resistance overhead. As old zones get invalidated or new ones appear, the chart remains current with the latest key levels, eliminating clutter from outdated levels.
• Flexible Customization: The indicator comes with several options to tailor the zones to your trading style. You can filter which zones to display – for example, show only the most recent N zones or limit to only bullish or only bearish zones – helping declutter the chart and focus on recent, relevant levels. There are settings to control zone extension (how far into the future the zones are drawn) and to automatically invalidate zones once they’re no longer relevant (for instance, if price fully breaks through a zone or a new structure shift occurs that supersedes it). Additionally, the Fibonacci retracement levels within each zone are customizable: you can choose which retracement percentages to plot, adjust their colors or line styles, and decide whether to fill the zone area for visibility. This flexibility ensures the DTFX Algo Zones can be tuned for different markets and strategies, whether you want a clean minimalist look or detailed zones with multiple internal levels.
Best Use Cases
DTFX Algo Zones is a versatile indicator that can enhance various trading strategies. Some of its best use cases include:
• Identifying High-Probability Reversal Zones: Each zone marks an area where price has a higher likelihood of stalling or reversing because it reflects a significant prior swing and Fibonacci retracement. Traders can watch these zones for entry opportunities when the market approaches them, as they often coincide with order block or strong supply/demand areas. This is especially useful for catching trend reversals or pullbacks at points where risk is lower and potential reward is higher.
• Spotting Key Support and Resistance: The automatically drawn zones act as dynamic support (below price) and resistance (above price) levels. Instead of manually drawing Fibonacci retracements or support/resistance lines, you get an instant map of the key levels derived from recent price action. This helps in quickly identifying where the next bounce (support) or rejection (resistance) might occur. Swing traders and intraday traders alike can use these zones to set alerts or anticipate reaction areas as the market moves.
• Trend-Following Entries: In a trending market, the indicator’s zones provide ideal areas to join the trend on pullbacks. For example, in an uptrend, when a new bullish zone is drawn after a BOS, it indicates a fresh demand zone – buying near the lower end of that zone on a pullback can offer a low-risk entry to ride the next leg up. Similarly, in a downtrend, selling rallies into the highlighted supply zones can position you in the direction of the prevailing trend. The zones effectively serve as a roadmap of the trend’s structure, allowing trend traders to buy dips and sell rallies with greater confidence.
• Mean-Reversion and Range Trading: Even in choppy or range-bound markets, DTFX Algo Zones can help find mean-reversion trades. If price is oscillating sideways, the zones at extremes of the range might mark where momentum is shifting (ChoCH) and price could swing back toward the mean. A trader might fade an extended move when it reaches a strong zone, anticipating a reversion. Additionally, if multiple zones cluster in an area across time (creating a zone overlap), it often signifies a particularly robust support/resistance level ideal for range trading strategies.
In all these use cases, the indicator’s ability to filter out noise and highlight structurally important levels means traders can focus on higher-probability setups and make more informed trading decisions.
Strategy – Pullback Trading with DTFX Algo Zones
One of the most effective ways to use the DTFX Algo Zones indicator is trading pullbacks in the direction of the trend. Below is a step-by-step strategy to capitalize on pullbacks using the zones, combining the indicator’s signals with sound price action analysis and risk management:
1. Identify a Market Structure Shift and Trend Bias: First, observe the chart for a recent BOS or ChoCH signal from the indicator. This will tell you the current trend bias. For instance, a bullish BOS/ChoCH means the market momentum has shifted upward (bullish bias), and a new demand zone will be drawn. A bearish structure break indicates downward momentum and creates a supply zone. Make sure the broader context supports the bias (e.g., if multiple higher timeframe zones are bullish, focus on long trades).
2. Wait for the Pullback into the Zone: Once a new zone appears, don’t chase the price immediately. Instead, wait for price to retrace back into that highlighted zone. Patience is key – let the market come to you. For a bullish setup, allow price to dip into the Fibonacci retracement zone (demand area); for a bearish setup, watch for a rally into the supply zone. Often, the middle of the zone (around the 50% retracement level) can be an optimal area where price might slow down and pivot, but it’s wise to observe price behavior across the entire zone.
3. Confirm the Entry with Price Action & Confluence: As price tests the zone, look for confirmation signals before entering the trade. This can include bullish reversal candlestick patterns (for longs) or bearish patterns (for shorts) such as engulfing candles, hammers/shooting stars, or doji indicating indecision turning to reversal. Additionally, incorporate confluence factors to strengthen the setup: for example, check if the zone overlaps with a key moving average, a round number price level, or an old support/resistance line from a higher timeframe. You might also use an oscillator (like RSI or Stochastic) to see if the pullback has reached oversold conditions in a bullish zone (or overbought in a bearish zone), suggesting a bounce is likely. The more factors aligning at the zone, the more confidence you can have in the trade. Only proceed with an entry once you see clear evidence of buyers defending a demand zone or sellers defending a supply zone.
4. Enter the Trade and Manage Risk: When you’re satisfied with the confirmation (e.g., price starts to react positively off a demand zone or shows rejection wicks in a supply zone), execute your entry in the direction of the original trend. Immediately set a stop-loss order to control risk: for a long trade, a common placement is just below the demand zone (a few ticks/pips under the swing low that formed the zone); for a short trade, place the stop just above the supply zone’s high. This way, if the zone fails and price continues beyond it, your loss is limited. Position size the trade so that this stop-loss distance corresponds to a risk you are comfortable with (for example, 1-2% of your trading capital).
5. Take Profit Strategically: Plan your take-profit targets in advance. A conservative approach is to target the origin of the move – for instance, in a long trade, you might take profit as price moves back up to the swing high (the 0% Fibonacci level of the zone) or the next significant zone or resistance level above. This often yields at least a 1:1 reward-to-risk ratio if you entered around mid-zone. More aggressive trend-following traders may leave a portion of the position running beyond the initial target, aiming for a larger move in line with the trend (for example, new higher highs in an uptrend). You can also trail your stop-loss upward behind new higher lows (for longs) or lower highs (for shorts) as the trend progresses, locking in profit while allowing for further gains.
6. Monitor Zone Invalidation: Even after entering, keep an eye on the behavior around the zone and any new zones that may form. If price fails to bounce and instead breaks decisively through the entire zone, respect that as an invalidation – the market may be signaling a deeper reversal or that the signal was false. In such a case, it’s better to exit early or stick to your stop-loss than to hold onto a losing position. The indicator will often mark or no longer highlight zones that have been invalidated by price, guiding you to shift focus to the next opportunity.
Risk Management Tips:
• Always use a stop-loss and don’t move it farther out in hope. Placing the stop just beyond the zone’s far end (the swing point) helps protect you if the pullback turns into a larger reversal.
• Aim for a favorable risk-to-reward ratio. With pullback entries near the middle or far end of a zone, you can often achieve a reward that equals or exceeds your risk. For example, risking 20 pips to make 20+ pips (1:1 or better) is a prudent starting point. Adjust targets based on market structure – if the next resistance is 50 pips away, consider that upside against your risk.
• Use confluence and context: Don’t take every zone signal in isolation. The highest probability trades come when the DTFX Algo Zone aligns with other analysis (trend direction, chart patterns, higher timeframe support/resistance, etc.). This filtered approach will reduce trades taken in weak zones or counter-trend traps.
• Embrace patience and selectivity: Not all zones are equal. It can be wise to skip very narrow or insignificant zones and wait for those that form after a strong BOS/ChoCH (indicating a powerful move). Larger zones or zones formed during high-volume times tend to produce more reliable pullback opportunities.
• Review and adapt: After each trade, note how price behaved around the zone. If you notice certain Fib levels (like 50% or 61.8%) within the zone consistently provide the best entries, you can refine your approach to focus on those. Similarly, adjust the indicator’s settings if needed – for example, if too many minor zones are cluttering your screen, limit to the last few or increase the structure length parameter to capture only more significant swings.
⸻
By combining the DTFX Algo Zones indicator with disciplined confirmation and risk management, traders can improve their timing on pullback entries and avoid chasing moves. This indicator shines in helping you trade what you see, not what you feel – the clearly marked zones and structure shifts keep you grounded in price action reality. Whether you’re a trend trader looking to buy the dip/sell the rally, or a reversal trader hunting for exhaustion points, DTFX Algo Zones provides a robust visual aid to elevate your trading decisions. Use it as a complementary tool in your analysis to stay on the right side of the market’s structure and enhance your trading performance.

The performance table is designed to provide a clear summary of simulated trade results based on divergence setups. You can easily review key metrics to assess the strategy’s effectiveness over different time periods.
Customization and Adaptability
Divergence IQ offers a wide range of configurable settings to tailor the indicator to your personal trading approach. You can adjust the lookback and lookahead periods for pivot detection, select your preferred method for normalization, and modify trade exit parameters to manage risk according to your strategy. The tool’s clear visual elements and comprehensive performance metrics make it a useful addition to your technical analysis toolbox.
The image above shows Divergence IQ identifying divergences between price action and OBV with no normalization technique applied.
While traders can look for divergences between OBV and price, OBV doesn't naturally behave like an oscillator, with no definable upper and lower threshold, OBV can infinitely increase or decrease.
With Divergence IQ's ability to normalize any indicator, traders can normalize non-oscillator technical indicators such as OBV, CVD, MACD, or even a moving average.
In the image above, the "Robust Scaling" normalization technique is selected. Consequently, the output of OBV has changed and is now behaving similar to an oscillator-like technical indicator. This makes spotting divergences between the indicator and price easier and more appropriate.
The three normalization techniques included will change the indicator's final output to be more compatible with divergence detection.
This feature can be used with almost any technical indicator.
Stop Type
Traders can select between ATR based profit targets and stop losses, or percentage based profit targets and stop losses.
The image above shows options for the feature.
Divergence Detection Method
A natural pitfall of divergence trading is that it generally takes several bars to "confirm" a divergence. This makes trading the divergence complicated, because the entry at time of the divergence might look great; however, the divergence wasn't actually signaled until several bars later.
To circumvent this issue, Divergence IQ offers two divergence detection mechanisms.
Pivot Detection
Pivot detection mode is the same as almost every divergence indicator on TradingView. The Pivots High Low indicator is used to detect market/indicator highs and lows and, consequently, divergences.
This method generally finds the "best looking" divergences, but will always take additional time to confirm the divergence.
Immediate Detection
Immediate detection mode attempts to reduce lag between the divergence and its confirmation to as little as possible while avoiding repainting.
Immediate detection mode still uses the Pivots Detection model to find the first high/low of a divergence. However, the most recent high/low does not utilize the Pivot Detection model, and instead immediately looks for a divergence between price and an indicator.
Immediate Detection Mode will always signal a divergence one bar after it's occurred, and traders can set alerts in this mode to be alerted as soon as the divergence occurs.
TradingView Backtester Integration
Divergence IQ is fully compatible with the TradingView backtester!
Divergence IQ isn’t designed to be a “profitable strategy” for users to trade. Instead, the intention of including the backtester is to let users backtest divergence-based trading strategies between the asset on their chart and almost any technical indicator, and to see if divergences have any predictive utility in that market.
So while the backtester is available in Divergence IQ, it’s for users to personally figure out if they should consider a divergence an actionable insight, and not a solicitation that Divergence IQ is a profitable trading strategy. Divergence IQ should be thought of as a Divergence backtesting toolkit, not a full-feature trading strategy.
Strategy Properties Used For Backtest
Initial Capital: $1000 - a realistic amount of starting capital that will resonate with many traders
Amount Per Trade: 5% of equity - a realistic amount of capital to invest relative to portfolio size

Engulfing Sweeps - Milana TradesEngulfing Sweeps
The Engulfing Sweeps Candle is a candlestick pattern that:
1)Takes liquidity from the previous candle’s high or low.
2)Fully engulfs previous candles upon closing.
3)Indicates strong buying or selling pressure.
4)Helps determine the bias of the next candle.
Logic Behind Engulfing Sweeps
If you analyze this candle on a lower timeframe, you’ll often see popular models like PO3 (Power of Three) or AMD (Accumulation – Manipulation – Distribution).
Once the candle closes, the goal is to enter a position on the retracement of the distribution phase.
How to Use Engulfing Sweeps?
Recommended Timeframes:
4H, Daily, Weekly – these levels hold significant liquidity.
Personally, I prefer 4H, as it provides a solid view of mid-term market moves.
Step1 - Identify Engulfing Sweep Candle
Step 2-Switch to a lower timeframe (15m or 5m).And you task identify optimal trade entry
Look for an entry pattern based on:
FVG (Fair Value Gap)
OB (Order Block)
FIB levels (0/0.25/0.5/ 0.75/ 1)
Wait for confirmation and take the trade.
Automating with TradingView Alerts
To avoid missing the pattern, you can set up alerts using a custom script. Once the pattern forms, TradingView will notify you so you can analyze the chart and take action. This approch helps me be more freedom
Supertrend and Fast and Slow EMA StrategyThis strategy combines Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and Average True Range (ATR) to create a simple, yet effective, trend-following approach. The strategy filters out fake or sideways signals by incorporating the ATR as a volatility filter, ensuring that trades are only taken during trending conditions. The key idea is to buy when the short-term trend (Fast EMA) aligns with the long-term trend (Slow EMA), and to avoid trades during low volatility periods.
How It Works:
EMA Crossover:
1). Buy Signal: When the Fast EMA (shorter-term, e.g., 20-period) crosses above the Slow EMA (longer-term, e.g., 50-period), this indicates a potential uptrend.
2). Sell Signal: When the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA, this indicates a potential downtrend.
ATR Filter:
1). The ATR (Average True Range) is used to measure market volatility.
2). Trending Market: If the ATR is above a certain threshold, it indicates high volatility and a trending market. Only when ATR is above the threshold will the strategy generate buy/sell signals.
3). Sideways Market: If ATR is low (sideways or choppy market), the strategy will suppress signals to avoid entering during non-trending conditions.
When to Buy:
1). Condition 1: The Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA.
2). Condition 2: The ATR is above the defined threshold, indicating that the market is trending (not sideways or choppy).
When to Sell:
1). Condition 1: The Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA.
2). Condition 2: The ATR is above the defined threshold, confirming that the market is in a downtrend.
When Not to Enter the Trade:
1). Sideways Market: If the ATR is below the threshold, signaling low volatility and sideways or choppy market conditions, the strategy will not trigger any buy or sell signals.
2). False Crossovers: In low volatility conditions, price action tends to be noisy, which could lead to false signals. Therefore, avoiding trades during these periods reduces the risk of false breakouts.
Additional Factors to Consider Adding:
=> RSI (Relative Strength Index): Adding an RSI filter can help confirm overbought or oversold conditions to avoid buying into overextended moves or selling too low.
1). RSI Buy Filter: Only take buy signals when RSI is below 70 (avoiding overbought conditions).
2). RSI Sell Filter: Only take sell signals when RSI is above 30 (avoiding oversold conditions).
=> MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): Using MACD can help validate the strength of the trend.
1). Buy when the MACD histogram is above the zero line and the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA.
2). Sell when the MACD histogram is below the zero line and the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA.
=> Support/Resistance Levels: Adding support and resistance levels can help you understand market structure and decide whether to enter or exit a trade.
1). Buy when price breaks above a significant resistance level (after a valid buy signal).
2). Sell when price breaks below a major support level (after a valid sell signal).
=> Volume: Consider adding a volume filter to ensure that buy/sell signals are supported by strong market participation. You could only take signals if the volume is above the moving average of volume over a certain period.
=> Trailing Stop Loss: Instead of a fixed stop loss, use a trailing stop based on a percentage or ATR to lock in profits as the trade moves in your favor.
=> Exit Signals: Besides the EMA crossover, consider adding Take Profit or Stop Loss levels, or even using a secondary indicator like RSI to signal an overbought/oversold condition and exit the trade.
Example Usage:
=> Buy Example:
1). Fast EMA (20-period) crosses above the Slow EMA (50-period).
2). The ATR is above the threshold, confirming that the market is trending.
3). Optionally, if RSI is below 70, the buy signal is further confirmed as not being overbought.
=> Sell Example:
1). Fast EMA (20-period) crosses below the Slow EMA (50-period).
2). The ATR is above the threshold, confirming that the market is trending.
3). Optionally, if RSI is above 30, the sell signal is further confirmed as not being oversold.
Conclusion:
This strategy helps to identify trending markets and filters out sideways or choppy market conditions. By using Fast and Slow EMAs combined with the ATR volatility filter, it provides a reliable approach to catching trending moves while avoiding false signals during low-volatility, sideways markets.

Median / Averages from Lower Time-Frame TicksI've added/created this to give me a more accurate idea of candle movements - I use the MEDIAN average of a candle, which gives me a more accurate "description" of where the candle spent most of it's time 'hovering', over that time frame. The beauty of this is how it REDUCES NOISE, espeicially long wicks, or candles that spike at the moment of a close, skewing a 'normalized' candle's result.
Due to how the Median Calculation works, changing the 'candle timeframe' in options will have no effect - that is available as an option for some of the more traditional MA's, which you can toggle between in the settings... it can also display traditional MA's - SMA, HMA, WMA, and the HLC/3 which I was using up until this point.
This is a 'Line Chart' version of this indicator; I intend to update it with a 'normalized', custom drawn candle based on this method.
The MEDIAN of a candle is a value based on the following;
it lines all values up over a time frame, then takes the value closest to the centre of the array as the 'median'. I'll provide a working example.
imagine we have a candle with 5 values;
it opens at 2, spikes up to 1, spikes down to 10, then spends the entire time hovering at 3 and 4 until it's close. Our array looks like this;
1,2,3,4,100
now, the "average" of these candles is (1+2+3+4+100) / 5 = 22
when the "median" of these candles is the centre value of the array, which is 3.
The candle spent 99% of it's time between 1 and 4 - and spiked for one moment to 100... so now the median gives me a better idea of where the price spent most of it's time, in this instance.
This becomes more skewed, and therefore more accurate, the more values in a candle - and the minute chart on the hourly is a good baseline that gives pretty fair values, without being overly taxing on the machine that needs to make those calculations.
Caveat: I Trade on the Hourly/Daily, so the medians are taken from Minute Candles - thus this will effectively be 'no good' for 1 minute time-frames, (it will simply draw at the Close) but will still have some value down to 15 minute, or even 5 minute charts.
MTF Signal XpertMTF Signal Xpert – Detailed Description
Overview:
MTF Signal Xpert is a proprietary, open‑source trading signal indicator that fuses multiple technical analysis methods into one cohesive strategy. Developed after rigorous backtesting and extensive research, this advanced tool is designed to deliver clear BUY and SELL signals by analyzing trend, momentum, and volatility across various timeframes. Its integrated approach not only enhances signal reliability but also incorporates dynamic risk management, helping traders protect their capital while navigating complex market conditions.
Detailed Explanation of How It Works:
Trend Detection via Moving Averages
Dual Moving Averages:
MTF Signal Xpert computes two moving averages—a fast MA and a slow MA—with the flexibility to choose from Simple (SMA), Exponential (EMA), or Hull (HMA) methods. This dual-MA system helps identify the prevailing market trend by contrasting short-term momentum with longer-term trends.
Crossover Logic:
A BUY signal is initiated when the fast MA crosses above the slow MA, coupled with the condition that the current price is above the lower Bollinger Band. This suggests that the market may be emerging from a lower price region. Conversely, a SELL signal is generated when the fast MA crosses below the slow MA and the price is below the upper Bollinger Band, indicating potential bearish pressure.
Recent Crossover Confirmation:
To ensure that signals reflect current market dynamics, the script tracks the number of bars since the moving average crossover event. Only crossovers that occur within a user-defined “candle confirmation” period are considered, which helps filter out outdated signals and improves overall signal accuracy.
Volatility and Price Extremes with Bollinger Bands
Calculation of Bands:
Bollinger Bands are calculated using a 20‑period simple moving average as the central basis, with the upper and lower bands derived from a standard deviation multiplier. This creates dynamic boundaries that adjust according to recent market volatility.
Signal Reinforcement:
For BUY signals, the condition that the price is above the lower Bollinger Band suggests an undervalued market condition, while for SELL signals, the price falling below the upper Bollinger Band reinforces the bearish bias. This volatility context adds depth to the moving average crossover signals.
Momentum Confirmation Using Multiple Oscillators
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The RSI is computed over 14 periods to determine if the market is in an overbought or oversold state. Only readings within an optimal range (defined by user inputs) validate the signal, ensuring that entries are made during balanced conditions.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
The MACD line is compared with its signal line to assess momentum. A bullish scenario is confirmed when the MACD line is above the signal line, while a bearish scenario is indicated when it is below, thus adding another layer of confirmation.
Awesome Oscillator (AO):
The AO measures the difference between short-term and long-term simple moving averages of the median price. Positive AO values support BUY signals, while negative values back SELL signals, offering additional momentum insight.
ADX (Average Directional Index):
The ADX quantifies trend strength. MTF Signal Xpert only considers signals when the ADX value exceeds a specified threshold, ensuring that trades are taken in strongly trending markets.
Optional Stochastic Oscillator:
An optional stochastic oscillator filter can be enabled to further refine signals. It checks for overbought conditions (supporting SELL signals) or oversold conditions (supporting BUY signals), thus reducing ambiguity.
Multi-Timeframe Verification
Higher Timeframe Filter:
To align short-term signals with broader market trends, the script calculates an EMA on a higher timeframe as specified by the user. This multi-timeframe approach helps ensure that signals on the primary chart are consistent with the overall trend, thereby reducing false signals.
Dynamic Risk Management with ATR
ATR-Based Calculations:
The Average True Range (ATR) is used to measure current market volatility. This value is multiplied by a user-defined factor to dynamically determine stop loss (SL) and take profit (TP) levels, adapting to changing market conditions.
Visual SL/TP Markers:
The calculated SL and TP levels are plotted on the chart as distinct colored dots, enabling traders to quickly identify recommended exit points.
Optional Trailing Stop:
An optional trailing stop feature is available, which adjusts the stop loss as the trade moves favorably, helping to lock in profits while protecting against sudden reversals.
Risk/Reward Ratio Calculation:
MTF Signal Xpert computes a risk/reward ratio based on the dynamic SL and TP levels. This quantitative measure allows traders to assess whether the potential reward justifies the risk associated with a trade.
Condition Weighting and Signal Scoring
Binary Condition Checks:
Each technical condition—ranging from moving average crossovers, Bollinger Band positioning, and RSI range to MACD, AO, ADX, and volume filters—is assigned a binary score (1 if met, 0 if not).
Cumulative Scoring:
These individual scores are summed to generate cumulative bullish and bearish scores, quantifying the overall strength of the signal and providing traders with an objective measure of its viability.
Detailed Signal Explanation:
A comprehensive explanation string is generated, outlining which conditions contributed to the current BUY or SELL signal. This explanation is displayed on an on‑chart dashboard, offering transparency and clarity into the signal generation process.
On-Chart Visualizations and Debug Information
Chart Elements:
The indicator plots all key components—moving averages, Bollinger Bands, SL and TP markers—directly on the chart, providing a clear visual framework for understanding market conditions.
Combined Dashboard:
A dedicated dashboard displays key metrics such as RSI, ADX, and the bullish/bearish scores, alongside a detailed explanation of the current signal. This consolidated view allows traders to quickly grasp the underlying logic.
Debug Table (Optional):
For advanced users, an optional debug table is available. This table breaks down each individual condition, indicating which criteria were met or not met, thus aiding in further analysis and strategy refinement.
Mashup Justification and Originality
MTF Signal Xpert is more than just an aggregation of existing indicators—it is an original synthesis designed to address real-world trading complexities. Here’s how its components work together:
Integrated Trend, Volatility, and Momentum Analysis:
By combining moving averages, Bollinger Bands, and multiple oscillators (RSI, MACD, AO, ADX, and an optional stochastic), the indicator captures diverse market dynamics. Each component reinforces the others, reducing noise and filtering out false signals.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
The inclusion of a higher timeframe filter aligns short-term signals with longer-term trends, enhancing overall reliability and reducing the potential for contradictory signals.
Adaptive Risk Management:
Dynamic stop loss and take profit levels, determined using ATR, ensure that the risk management strategy adapts to current market conditions. The optional trailing stop further refines this approach, protecting profits as the market evolves.
Quantitative Signal Scoring:
The condition weighting system provides an objective measure of signal strength, giving traders clear insight into how each technical component contributes to the final decision.
How to Use MTF Signal Xpert:
Input Customization:
Adjust the moving average type and period settings, ATR multipliers, and oscillator thresholds to align with your trading style and the specific market conditions.
Enable or disable the optional stochastic oscillator and trailing stop based on your preference.
Interpreting the Signals:
When a BUY or SELL signal appears, refer to the on‑chart dashboard, which displays key metrics (e.g., RSI, ADX, bullish/bearish scores) along with a detailed breakdown of the conditions that triggered the signal.
Review the SL and TP markers on the chart to understand the associated risk/reward setup.
Risk Management:
Use the dynamically calculated stop loss and take profit levels as guidelines for setting your exit points.
Evaluate the provided risk/reward ratio to ensure that the potential reward justifies the risk before entering a trade.
Debugging and Verification:

[AcerX] Leverage, TP & Optimal TP CalculatorHow It Works
Inputs:
Portfolio Allocation (%): The percentage of your portfolio you're willing to risk on the trade.
Stop Loss (%): The stop loss distance below the entry price.
Taker Fee (%) and Maker Fee (%): The fees applied on entry and exit.
Calculations:
The script calculates the required "raw" leverage to risk 1% of your portfolio.
It floors the computed leverage to an integer ("effectiveLeverage").
If the computed leverage is less than 1, it shows an error message (and suggests the maximum allocation for at least 1× leverage).
Otherwise, it calculates the TP levels for target profits of 1.2%, 1.5%, and 2%, and an "Optimal TP" that nets a 1% profit after fees.
Display:
A table is drawn on the top right corner of your chart displaying the effective leverage, the TP levels, and an error message if applicable.
Simply add this script as a new indicator in TradingView, and adjust the inputs as needed.
Happy trading!

Wave Trend -V2Wave Trend -V2 is here to give you a serious edge.
This upgraded version of the popular LazyBear script takes wave trend analysis to the next level.
Here's the deal:
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Beyond Short-Term Noise:
Novice traders often focus solely on the current timeframe (let's say, the 5-minute chart).
Wave Trend -V2 breaks free from this limitation by analyzing price action across multiple timeframes (1-minute to 1-week).
---This holistic view helps you:
Identify larger trends: Are we in a bullish uptrend on the daily chart, even if the hourly chart is showing some short-term weakness? Wave Trend -V2 helps you see the bigger picture.
Avoid false breakouts: Short-term price spikes can create false signals. By looking at higher timeframes, you can filter out these "noise" and focus on sustainable trends.
---Pressure Analysis: Gauging Market Strength:
Wave Trend -V2 goes beyond simple trend identification.
It incorporates "pressure" analysis to gauge the strength and direction of the current market trend.
This helps you:
Enter trades with confidence: When the trend is strong and the pressure is high, you can enter trades with greater conviction.
Minimize risk: If the pressure is waning or conflicting signals arise, you can avoid entering trades or adjust your risk parameters accordingly.
Impact Point Analysis: Predicting Future Price Moves:
Wave Trend -V2 analyzes the price impact of the last four wave trend crossovers.
Let's say the last impact point was "X", the previous one "X-1", the one before that "X-2", and so on.
The indicator calculates the average price movement between these points using the following simplified formula:
Average Impact = (X - X-1) + (X-1 - X-2) + (X-2 - X-3) / 3
This average provides a valuable estimate of the potential price movement of the next crossover.
Multiple Take Profit Levels: Setting Strategic Targets:
Wave Trend -V2 offers three dynamic take profit levels (TP1, TP2, TP3).

BuyTheDips Trade on Trend and Fixed TP/SL
This strategy is designed to trade in the direction of the trend using exponential moving average (EMA) crossovers as signals while employing fixed percentages for take profit (TP) and stop loss (SL) to manage risk and reward. It is suitable for both scalping and swing trading on any timeframe, with its default settings optimized for short-term price movements.
How It Works
EMA Crossovers:
The strategy uses two EMAs: a fast EMA (shorter period) and a slow EMA (longer period).
A buy signal is triggered when the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA, indicating a potential bullish trend.
A sell signal is triggered when the fast EMA crosses below the slow EMA, signaling a bearish trend.
Trend Filtering:
To improve signal reliability, the strategy only takes trades in the direction of the overall trend:
Long trades are executed only when the fast EMA is above the slow EMA (bullish trend).
Short trades are executed only when the fast EMA is below the slow EMA (bearish trend).
This filtering ensures trades are aligned with the prevailing market direction, reducing false signals.
Risk Management (Fixed TP/SL):
The strategy uses fixed percentages for take profit and stop loss:
Take Profit: A percentage above the entry price for long trades (or below for short trades).
Stop Loss: A percentage below the entry price for long trades (or above for short trades).
These percentages can be customized to balance risk and reward according to your trading style.
For example:
If the take profit is set to 2% and the stop loss to 1%, the strategy operates with a 2:1 risk-reward ratio. BINANCE:BTCUSDT
