MTF Candle Direction Forecast + Breakdown🧭 MTF Candle Direction Forecast + Breakdown 🔥📈🔼
This script is a multi-timeframe (MTF) price action dashboard that helps traders assess real-time directional bias across five customizable timeframes — with a focus on candle behavior, trend alignment, and confidence strength.
📌 What It Does
For each timeframe, this dashboard summarizes:
Current direction → Bullish, Bearish, or Neutral
Confidence score (0–100) → How strongly price is likely to continue in that direction
Candle strength → 🔥 icon appears if the current candle has a large body relative to its range
Trend alignment:
📈 = EMA9 is above EMA20
🔼 = Price is above VWAP
Color-coded background to visually reinforce directional state
Each row gives you a visual “at-a-glance” readout of what price is doing right now — not in the past.
💡 Why It’s Useful
✅ Direction forecasting based on price action
Instead of lagging indicators, this script prioritizes:
Candle body-to-range ratio (momentum)
Real-time VWAP/EMA structure
Immediate price positioning
✅ Confidence is quantified
The score (0–100) helps you judge how reliable each directional signal is:
90+ → Strong conviction
50–70 → Mixed but potentially valid
<40 → Weak move or early signal
✅ Timeframe confluence at a glance
See whether multiple timeframes are aligning directionally — helpful for scalping, day trading, or waiting for multi-timeframe breakout setups.
✅ Visual & intuitive
Icons, colors, and layout make it easy to scan your dashboard instead of deciphering charts or code.

Reposted Original Description by © ka66 Kamal Advani
Visually shows the Body Range (open to close) and Candle Range (high to low).
Semi-transparent overlapping area is the full Candle Range, and fully-opaque smaller area is the Body Range. For aesthetics and visual consistency, Candle Range follows the direction of the Body Range, even though technically it's always positive (high - low).
The different plots for each range type also means the UI will allow deselecting one or the other as needed. For example, some strategies may care only about the Body Range, rather than the entire Candle Range, so the latter can be hidden to reduce noise.
Threshold horizontal lines are plotted, so the trader can modify these high and low levels as needed through the user interface. These need to be configured to match the instrument's price range levels for the timeframe. The defaults are pretty arbitrary for +/- 0.0080 (80 pips in a 4-decimal place forex pair). Where a range reaches or exceeds a threshold, it's visually marked as well with a shape at the Body or Candle peak, to assist with quicker visual potential setup scanning, for example, to anticipate a following reversal or continuation.
Two-Candle Highs & LowsSimple indicator which highlights highs and lows as two-candle reversal patterns:
1. High pattern : A bullish candle followed by a bearish candle, marking the highest price of the two.
2. Low pattern : A bearish candle followed by a bullish candle, marking the lowest price of the two.
It draws horizontal lines at the high/low levels, making it useful for price action analysis such as identifying potential reversals or support/resistance zones.
Electronic Trading Hours Session/CandlesThis indicator visually distinguishes the electronic trading session, spanning from the prior day's close (e.g., 5:00 PM EST) through the overnight period until the next day's opening bell (e.g., 9:30 AM EST).
It can be customized to highlight this period with a shaded zone or colored candles depending on the trader’s preference.
The overnight levels that create the opening range gap often act as critical zones of liquidity.
The indicator provides a clear visual cue of potential price magnets that smart money (institutional traders) may target during the opening bell session to trigger liquidity sweeps.
Candle Bias ForecastCandle Bias Forecast Indicator
Description:
The Candle Bias Forecast Indicator is an original multi‐timeframe analysis tool that generates price forecast levels based on the difference between candle biases on two different timeframes. It uses innovative calculations to provide potential forecast levels that align with current price action.
How It Works:
1. Candle Bias Calculation:
For each candle, the indicator computes a “candle bias” using the formula:
candleBias = (((open + close)/2 - (high + low)/2) + ((close - open)/(high - low)))/2
This measure captures both the positioning of the candle’s body within its range and the normalized move from open to close.
2. Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
The script uses multiple timeframe pairs (e.g., 5-minute vs. 30-minute, 10-minute vs. 60-minute, etc.). For each pair, the bias is computed on the lower timeframe and on the higher timeframe.
3. Normalization with ATR:
To translate the dimensionless bias difference into price terms, the indicator multiplies the difference by the lower timeframe’s Average True Range (ATR). This scales the forecast adjustment to current market volatility.
4. Forecast Computation:
The forecast level for each pair is then calculated as:
forecast = close + (lowerTF_ATR * (lowerTF_bias - higherTF_bias))
This yields forecast levels that are plotted on the chart and connected by lines for a visual guide.
How to Use:
- Visual Confirmation: Add the indicator to your 1 to 15 minute chart to see forecast levels overlaid on the price.
- Supplementary Analysis: Use these forecast levels as an additional tool alongside your other analysis methods. They can help indicate potential support/resistance areas or directional bias.
Important Notes:
- Not a Standalone Signal: This indicator is intended to supplement your analysis. Always combine it with other tools and sound risk management practices.
- For Educational & Research Use: The indicator is provided “as is” without any guarantee of performance. It is designed to illustrate an innovative approach to multi-timeframe analysis.
- Disclaimer: Past performance is not indicative of future results. Use this tool at your own risk.
By combining candle bias with ATR-based normalization and multi-timeframe analysis, this indicator offers a unique perspective on market dynamics that can enrich your trading strategy.

Enhanced Interval Candle with Breakout Detection and Detailed InThis indicator visualizes the last candle of a user-defined time interval (e.g., 1 hour, 4 hours, 1 day) on the current chart, providing enhanced details and breakout detection. It fetches the open, high, low, and close prices of the interval candle and draws a stylized representation of it, offset to the right of the current bar. The candle body and wicks are colored according to whether the interval candle closed bullishly (green) or bearishly (red). In addition to the candle itself, the indicator displays horizontal dotted lines representing the high, low, and midpoint of the interval candle, along with labels showing their exact values. These labels are dynamically updated as the interval candle changes. Furthermore, the script detects and visualizes breakouts of the interval candle's high or low. When the current price closes above the interval high, a green dashed line and a "Bullish Breakout" label are displayed. Conversely, when the current price closes below the interval low, a red dashed line and a "Bearish Breakout" label are shown. The breakout lines and labels are also dynamically updated. This indicator helps traders easily track the price action of a higher timeframe candle and spot potential breakouts based on that candle's range. The user can configure the time interval to suit their trading needs.

Harmony or Divergence Single CandleThis script is designed for traders who seek to visually identify and analyze patterns of harmony and divergence in the price action of securities directly on their trading charts. The script provides a nuanced approach to understanding market sentiment and potential price movement directions by examining candle sizes and volumes over a specified lookback period.
What the Script Does:
The script overlays indicators on the price chart that highlight periods of harmony and divergence using background colors. These periods are determined based on comparisons between current candle sizes, candle volumes, and their respective simple moving averages (SMAs) over a user-defined lookback period.
Harmony : A state where the candle size and volume are either both above or below their respective averages, indicating a consensus or agreement in market direction.
Divergence : A state where there's a mismatch, such as a larger candle size with lower volume or vice versa, suggesting uncertainty or potential reversal in market trends.
How It Does It:
User Inputs : Traders can customize several parameters, including the lookback period for averages, whether to include wicks in candle size calculations, and preferences for displaying harmony and divergence indicators with specific colors.
Calculations :
- The script calculates the simple moving average (SMA) of volume and candle sizes (with an option to consider the full candle range including wicks or just the body) over the specified lookback period.
- It then compares the current candle's size and volume against these averages to identify states of harmony or divergence.
Visualization :
- Based on the user's input, it colors the background of the chart to reflect identified patterns. Each state (harmony above or below average, divergence with higher volume or larger candle body) can be highlighted with different colors, providing immediate visual cues to the trader.
What Traders Can Do With the Script:
Traders can utilize this script to enhance their technical analysis by:
Identifying Trend Consistency : Harmony indicators can signal strong trends where price action and volume confirm each other, possibly supporting continuation strategies.
Spotting Potential Reversals : Divergence indicators may highlight potential exhaustion points or reversals, especially when price moves significantly without corresponding volume support.
Customizing Analysis : By adjusting the lookback period, candle size consideration (body or including wicks), and visualization options, traders can tailor the analysis to fit their trading style and strategy.
Dollar Volume Last 20 CandlesThe "Dollar Volume Last 20 Candles" indicator, abbreviated as "DV", is a practical and insightful tool for traders and analysts.

ANN Next Coming Candlestick Forecast SPX 1D v1.0WARNING:
Experimental and incomplete.
Script is open to development and will be developed.
This is just version 1.0
STRUCTURE
This script is trained according to the open, close, high and low values of the bars.
It is tried to predict the future values of opening, closing, high and low values.
A few simple codes were used to correlate expectation with current values. (You can see between line 129 - 159 )
Therefore, they are all individually trained.
You can see in functions.
The average training error of each variable is less than 0.011.
NOTE :
This script is designed for experimental use on S & P 500 and connected instruments only on 1-day bars.
The Plotcandle function is inspired by the following script of alexgrover :
Since we estimate the next values, our error rates should be much lower for all candlestick values. This is just first version to show logic.
I will continue to look for other variables to reach average error = 0.001 - 0.005 for each candlestick status.
Feel free to use and improve , this is open-source.
Best regards.

Universal Scalper: Candle OR Momentum (VWAP Optional)A universal scalping alert tool that triggers based on candle and/or momentum pattern reversals, with or without the optional VWAP proximity filter.
How to Use
To see more momentum signals:
- Set Require VWAP Proximity for Momentum Alerts? to false in the settings.
- Try shorter EMAs (8/21 or 5/20).
- Optionally, relax the RSI filter (e.g., <70 for longs, >30 for shorts).
To require VWAP for both:
- Set both toggles to true.
Debug:
Aqua/fuchsia squares = momentum signals.
Lime/orange circles = candle pattern signals.
Main triangles = overall alert.
Summary
Momentum alerts are rare when too many filters are combined.
This script lets you control if VWAP proximity is required for each alert type, and visually shows which logic is firing.
For more signals, relax filters and/or use shorter EMAs.
This will ensure you get both candle and momentum alerts, with full control over VWAP filtering and easy debugging.
Prev Candle Before Biggest Body (3-7am EST)This indicator automatically identifies and marks, for each trading day, the candle immediately preceding the largest open-to-close movement (in pips) during the key London session window from 3:00am to 7:00am EST (New York time). The largest candle is determined by the absolute difference between its open and close prices, measured in pips. The candle just before this “biggest” move is highlighted with a distinctive pink flag above the bar. This tool is especially useful for traders seeking to analyze pre-breakout price action or to identify key levels and setups that occur right before significant volatility during the early London session.

cc AJGB Candle Range Finder with TableOverview:
The "cc AJGB Candle Range Finder with Table" is a versatile Pine Script indicator designed to identify and visualize price ranges within the 1 minute charts based on UTC+2 Time Zone. Unlike traditional range indicators, it offers three unique calculation methods to define ranges based on minute and hour interactions, displays ranges as boxes with labeled point values, and summarizes average range sizes in a customizable table. This tool is ideal for analyzing price ranges of specific time based ranges.
Features:
Customizable Time Range: Users specify a start and end minute (0-59) to define the range period (e.g., 29th to 35th minute).
Three Calculation Methods:
Minute Only: Uses the minute of each bar to identify ranges (e.g., matches user-specified minutes).
Minute - Hour: Adjusts the minute by subtracting the hour, allowing for dynamic range detection across hourly cycles.
Minute + Hour: Combines minute and hour values for a unique range calculation, useful for specific intraday patterns.
Visual Output: Draws boxes around detected ranges, with labels showing the start/end minutes and range size in points.
Summary Table: Displays the average range size (in points) for each method, with customizable position, colors, and text size.
How It Works:
The indicator evaluates each bar’s timestamp in (UTC+2 ONLY) to match user-specified minutes using one or more selected methods. When a start minute is detected, it tracks the high and low prices until the end minute, drawing a box to highlight the range and labeling it with the range size in points. A table summarizes the average range size for each method, helping traders assess typical price movements during the specified period.
Market Analysis: Compare range sizes across different methods to understand intraday volatility patterns.
Settings Customization: Adjust colors, table position, and label sizes to suit your chart preferences.
Settings:
Range to Find: Set start and end minutes.
Range Selection: Enable/disable each method and customize colors.
Range Label Size: Choose label size (Tiny to Huge).
Table Settings: Configure table position (Top, Bottom, Left, Right), sub-position, text size, and colors.
Notes:
Only works on 1 minute charts
The indicator works best using Start Times that are lower than the End Times.
Ensure the chart is set to UTC+2 Time Zone for accurate range detection.
Why It’s Unique:
Unlike standard range indicators that focus on sessions or fixed periods, this tool allows precise minute-based range detection with three distinct calculation methods, offering flexibility for data gathering. The interactive table provides quick insights into average range sizes.
Candle PercentageThis script calculates the percentage movement of the candle body from open to close and displays it as a label on the chart. The label color changes based on the candle's direction:
Green for bullish (price closes higher than it opened),
Red for bearish (price closes lower than it opened).
The script also allows you to select the label size, with the following options:
Tiny (very small text)
Small (small text)
Normal (default text size)
Large (large text)
Huge (giant text)
By default, the label size is set to Normal.
The percentage is calculated using the formula:
(Body Size / Open Price) * 100
This is helpful for traders who want to quickly assess the magnitude of price movement within each candle and analyze market sentiment based on the size of the body.
