PENTAD THEORY 30 MINUTE INITIAL BALANCE With Candle HighlightThis indicator is designed to highlight the 30-minute initial balance range, visualize key retracement levels, and provide insights into market behavior based on defined conditions. It also enhances clarity by applying specific color changes to the :06 and :36 minute candle in relative 30-minute intervals.
Key Features:
Initial Balance Box:
Automatically creates a price range (box) representing the first 6 minutes of each 30-minute interval.
The box dynamically updates during this period to capture the high and low prices.
Color-Coded Zones:
Inside the Box: Yellow background indicates price trading within the range.
Above the Box: Green background shows price breaking above the range.
Below the Box: Red background reflects price breaking below the range.
EMA Overlay:
Plots 3 customizable EMAs (default lengths: 9, 21, 55).
Each EMA can be toggled on/off and colored individually for trend analysis.
Retracement Levels:
Automatically calculates and displays key Fibonacci retracement levels (61.8% and 38.2%) based on the box size.
Adds a midline for additional price reference.
Candle Highlighting:
The :06 and :36 minute candle in relative 30-minute intervals is highlighted with a customizable blue color to draw attention to specific market activity.
The break above or below the 6 minute candle or the close of the 6 minute candle outside the box can help determine the direction of the 30-minute interval.
How to Use:
Trend Confirmation:
Use the EMAs to identify overall trend direction. For example, a bullish trend is indicated when shorter EMAs (e.g., 9 EMA) are above longer ones (e.g., 55 EMA).
Breakout and Retracement Analysis:
Watch for price breaking out of the initial balance box.
Observe retracement levels (61.8% and 38.2%) as potential areas for reversal or continuation.
Candle Highlight:
Pay special attention to the :06 or :36 minute candle, which is highlighted to signify its relevance in the relative 30-minute cycle.

Time Based 3 Candle Model CRT FrameworkThe 3 Candle Model Overview:
The 3 Candle Model serves as a sophisticated framework for traders to navigate the complexities of financial markets, particularly within futures and forex trading. This guide not only elaborates on the model's key features but also emphasizes its originality and practical usefulness in the TradingView community. The core principle of the 3 Candle Model revolves around understanding how candle patterns can represent significant price ranges, offering valuable insights into potential market movements. By integrating the model with other critical trading concepts such as the Power of Three (PO3), Open-High-Low-Close (OHLC), and Turtle Soup setups, traders can enhance their ability to identify high-probability trades and achieve better trading outcomes.
Indicator includes:
3 Customizable Timeframe choices to fractally frame 3 candle models for precision
Live Timers for each timeframe to always be aware of the models timing
Parent Candle tracking on every preffered timeframe until new models parent candle is printed
Key Features of the 3 Candle Model
The 3 Candle Model primarily utilizes a three-candle structure, where the first candle establishes a price range, the second candle may act as a confirmation (often termed a "turtle soup"), and the third candle provides the breakout or continuation. This structure is pivotal in determining entry and exit points for trades, ensuring that each trading decision is backed by solid price action analysis.
OHLC Principle:
The Open-High-Low-Close (OHLC) concept is integral to the 3 Candle Model, allowing traders to analyze price action more effectively. Understanding the relationship between these four price points helps traders gauge market sentiment and potential reversals. By incorporating OHLC into the model, traders can develop a deeper understanding of market structure and its implications for future price movements.
Delivery States:
The 3 Candle Model emphasizes the importance of delivery states, which refer to the market's phase during specific time frames. Recognizing these states aids traders in determining the appropriate conditions for entering trades, particularly when combined with the power of three and candle range patterns. This understanding is crucial for positioning trades in alignment with market momentum.
High Probability Setups:
By aligning the 3 Candle Model with inside bar setups, traders can optimize their strategies for high-probability outcomes. This approach capitalizes on the inherent fractal nature of price movements, where previous patterns repeat at different scales. The combination of the model and inside bar setups enhances the trader's toolkit, allowing for more strategic trade placements.
Turtle Soup Formation:
The 3 Candle Model intricately connects with the Turtle Soup concept, which focuses on false breakouts. Identifying these formations at critical levels enhances the trader's ability to anticipate reversals or continuation patterns. The timing of these setups, particularly during specified times like 3:00 AM, 6:00 AM, 9:00 AM, and 1:00 PM, is crucial for maximizing trade success.
Using the 3 Candle Model in Trading
Integration with PO3:
The Power of Three (PO3) is a fundamental aspect of the 3 Candle Model that emphasizes the significance of three distinct stages of price delivery. Traders can leverage this principle by observing the initial range, confirming patterns, and executing trades during the third phase, leading to higher risk-to-reward ratios. This three-stage approach enhances a trader's ability to make informed decisions based on market behavior.
Targeting Midpoints:
Successful application of the 3 Candle Model involves targeting the midpoints of identified ranges. This practice not only provides strategic entry points but also enhances the probability of reaching desired profit levels. By targeting these midpoints, traders can refine their exit strategies and manage risk more effectively.
Aligning with Market Timing:
Timing is everything in trading. By synchronizing the 3 Candle Model setups with the aforementioned key timeframes, traders can better position themselves to exploit market dynamics. This alignment also facilitates the identification of high-quality trades that exhibit strong potential for profitability.
Prioritizing A+ Setups:
By focusing on the 3 Candle Model and its associated concepts, traders can prioritize A+ setups that exhibit a strong alignment of factors. This methodical approach enhances the quality of trades taken, leading to improved overall performance. By cultivating a strategy centered on high-probability setups, traders can maximize their return on investment.
Ensuring Originality and Usefulness
To meet the TradingView community guidelines, it is essential that this script is both original and useful. The 3 Candle Model, in its essence, is designed to provide traders with a unique perspective on market movements, free from generic or rehashed strategies. This tool integrates unique interpretations of the three-candle model and the associated strategies that are distinctly articulated and innovative.
Practical Applications: there are many practical applications of the 3 Candle Model in various trading contexts. This model in conjunction with other strategies to cultivate high-probability trade setups that can enhance performance across diverse market conditions.
Educational Value: This script is crafted with educational value in mind, providing insights that extend beyond mere trading signals. It encourages users to develop a deeper understanding of market mechanics and the interplay between price action, time, and trader psychology.
Conclusion
The 3 Candle Model provides a comprehensive framework for traders to enhance their trading strategies in the futures and forex markets. By understanding and applying the principles of this model alongside the Power of Three, OHLC concepts, and Turtle Soup formations, traders can significantly improve their ability to identify high-probability trades. The emphasis on timing, delivery states, and alignment of ranges ensures that traders are well-equipped to navigate the complexities of market movements, ultimately leading to more consistent and rewarding trading outcomes.
As trading involves risk, it is essential for traders to utilize these principles judiciously and maintain a disciplined approach to their trading strategies. By adhering to the TradingView community guidelines and emphasizing originality, usefulness, and detailed descriptions, this 3 Candle Model script stands as a valuable resource for traders seeking to refine their skills and achieve greater success in the financial markets.
Through this detailed exploration of the 3 Candle Model, traders will not only learn to recognize and exploit key patterns in price action but also appreciate the interconnectedness of various trading strategies that can significantly enhance their performance and profitability.

Introduction
"Digital filtering includes the process of smoothing, predicting, differentiating, integrating, separation of signals, and removal of noise from a signal. Thus many people who do such things are actually using digital filters without realizing that they are; being unacquainted with the theory, they neither understand what they have done nor the possibilities of what they might have done."
This quote from R. W. Hamming applies to the vast majority of indicators in technical analysis . Moving averages, be they simple, weighted, or exponential, are lowpass filters; low frequency components in the signal pass through with little attenuation, while high frequencies are severely reduced.
"Oscillator" type indicators (such as MACD , Momentum, Relative Strength Index ) are another type of digital filter called a differentiator.
Tushar Chande has observed that many popular oscillators are highly correlated, which is sensible because they are trying to measure the rate of change of the underlying time series, i.e., are trying to be the first and second derivatives we all learned about in Calculus.
We use moving averages (lowpass filters) in technical analysis to remove the random noise from a time series, to discern the underlying trend or to determine prices at which we will take action. A perfect moving average would have two attributes:
It would be smooth, not sensitive to random noise in the underlying time series. Another way of saying this is that its derivative would not spuriously alternate between positive and negative values.
It would not lag behind the time series it is computed from. Lag, of course, produces late buy or sell signals that kill profits.
The only way one can compute a perfect moving average is to have knowledge of the future, and if we had that, we would buy one lottery ticket a week rather than trade!
Having said this, we can still improve on the conventional simple, weighted, or exponential moving averages. Here's how:
Two Interesting Moving Averages
We will examine two benchmark moving averages based on Linear Regression analysis.
In both cases, a Linear Regression line of length n is fitted to price data.
I call the first moving average ILRS, which stands for Integral of Linear Regression Slope. One simply integrates the slope of a linear regression line as it is successively fitted in a moving window of length n across the data, with the constant of integration being a simple moving average of the first n points. Put another way, the derivative of ILRS is the linear regression slope. Note that ILRS is not the same as a SMA ( simple moving average ) of length n, which is actually the midpoint of the linear regression line as it moves across the data.
We can measure the lag of moving averages with respect to a linear trend by computing how they behave when the input is a line with unit slope. Both SMA (n) and ILRS(n) have lag of n/2, but ILRS is much smoother than SMA .
Our second benchmark moving average is well known, called EPMA or End Point Moving Average. It is the endpoint of the linear regression line of length n as it is fitted across the data. EPMA hugs the data more closely than a simple or exponential moving average of the same length. The price we pay for this is that it is much noisier (less smooth) than ILRS, and it also has the annoying property that it overshoots the data when linear trends are present.
However, EPMA has a lag of 0 with respect to linear input! This makes sense because a linear regression line will fit linear input perfectly, and the endpoint of the LR line will be on the input line.
These two moving averages frame the tradeoffs that we are facing. On one extreme we have ILRS, which is very smooth and has considerable phase lag. EPMA has 0 phase lag, but is too noisy and overshoots. We would like to construct a better moving average which is as smooth as ILRS, but runs closer to where EPMA lies, without the overshoot.
A easy way to attempt this is to split the difference, i.e. use (ILRS(n)+EPMA(n))/2. This will give us a moving average (call it IE /2) which runs in between the two, has phase lag of n/4 but still inherits considerable noise from EPMA. IE /2 is inspirational, however. Can we build something that is comparable, but smoother? Figure 1 shows ILRS, EPMA, and IE /2.
Filter Techniques
Any thoughtful student of filter theory (or resolute experimenter) will have noticed that you can improve the smoothness of a filter by running it through itself multiple times, at the cost of increasing phase lag.
There is a complementary technique (called twicing by J.W. Tukey) which can be used to improve phase lag. If L stands for the operation of running data through a low pass filter, then twicing can be described by:
L' = L(time series) + L(time series - L(time series))
That is, we add a moving average of the difference between the input and the moving average to the moving average. This is algebraically equivalent to:
2L-L(L)
This is the Double Exponential Moving Average or DEMA , popularized by Patrick Mulloy in TASAC (January/February 1994).
In our taxonomy, DEMA has some phase lag (although it exponentially approaches 0) and is somewhat noisy, comparable to IE /2 indicator.
We will use these two techniques to construct our better moving average, after we explore the first one a little more closely.
Fixing Overshoot
An n-day EMA has smoothing constant alpha=2/(n+1) and a lag of (n-1)/2.
Thus EMA (3) has lag 1, and EMA (11) has lag 5. Figure 2 shows that, if I am willing to incur 5 days of lag, I get a smoother moving average if I run EMA (3) through itself 5 times than if I just take EMA (11) once.
This suggests that if EPMA and DEMA have 0 or low lag, why not run fast versions (eg DEMA (3)) through themselves many times to achieve a smooth result? The problem is that multiple runs though these filters increase their tendency to overshoot the data, giving an unusable result. This is because the amplitude response of DEMA and EPMA is greater than 1 at certain frequencies, giving a gain of much greater than 1 at these frequencies when run though themselves multiple times. Figure 3 shows DEMA (7) and EPMA(7) run through themselves 3 times. DEMA^3 has serious overshoot, and EPMA^3 is terrible.
The solution to the overshoot problem is to recall what we are doing with twicing:
DEMA (n) = EMA (n) + EMA (time series - EMA (n))
The second term is adding, in effect, a smooth version of the derivative to the EMA to achieve DEMA . The derivative term determines how hot the moving average's response to linear trends will be. We need to simply turn down the volume to achieve our basic building block:
EMA (n) + EMA (time series - EMA (n))*.7;
This is algebraically the same as:
EMA (n)*1.7-EMA( EMA (n))*.7;
I have chosen .7 as my volume factor, but the general formula (which I call "Generalized Dema") is:
GD (n,v) = EMA (n)*(1+v)-EMA( EMA (n))*v,
Where v ranges between 0 and 1. When v=0, GD is just an EMA , and when v=1, GD is DEMA . In between, GD is a cooler DEMA . By using a value for v less than 1 (I like .7), we cure the multiple DEMA overshoot problem, at the cost of accepting some additional phase delay. Now we can run GD through itself multiple times to define a new, smoother moving average T3 that does not overshoot the data:
T3(n) = GD ( GD ( GD (n)))
In filter theory parlance, T3 is a six-pole non-linear Kalman filter. Kalman filters are ones which use the error (in this case (time series - EMA (n)) to correct themselves. In Technical Analysis , these are called Adaptive Moving Averages; they track the time series more aggressively when it is making large moves.

RSI Precision Trend Candles [Loxx]RSI Precision Trend Candles is a candle coloring indicator that uses an average range algorithm to determine trend direction. The precision trend algorithm can be used on any calculated output to tease out interesting trend information.
What is RSI?
The relative strength index (RSI) is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis. RSI measures the speed and magnitude of a security's recent price changes to evaluate overvalued or undervalued conditions in the price of that security.
The RSI is displayed as an oscillator (a line graph) on a scale of zero to 100. The indicator was developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. and introduced in his seminal 1978 book, New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems.

Flunki Alt TimeFrame Candle Flip Flop Vibes
Experimental Script !
What it does :
Signals a bull / bear higher timeframe candle state but *ONLY* if it flips state.
There is also an adjustable bar lookback offset, equivalent to Close
Public script as it's barely an embryo of an idea..
Enjoy.
*note* due to the new pinescript 'resolution' timeframe functionality it will only colour the bars of the selected timeframe., I kinda like it :)
Reversal Candlestick Pattern With Trend IndentifierThis script help to identified popular candlestick pattern combined with trend identifier.
Most script only focus on criteria of the pattern. Such as how much the length of the body compared to previous candle etc.
Besides criteria of the candle, this script also considered the trend into the logic.
For example bullish engulfing is a bullish reversal signal, which is only valid in a down trend.
To identified trend, I'm using RSI. Normally, RSI less than 50 is considered a down trend, and RSI greater than 50 is considered up trend. In this script, you can customize the criteria of how much RSI is up trend and down trend.
Default value RSI >= 55 is up trend, RSI <= 45 is down trend.
Your feedback and suggestion is welcome.

Percent Change per CandleThis indicator allows you to quickly view the true % change per candlestick (prev close > current close), but it also has 3 other customizable values for you to set your own % change conditions (such as open > high). Feel free to edit the script to suit your own needs as well.
Candle Overlap DegreeThis indicator gives the ratio of max(0, min High - max Low) to (max High - min Low) over n-day.
CT - Candle TrendHighlight candle tails in a trend in order to find previous area of resistance or support.
Recommended for D, W or higher timeframes.
Rate of Change Candle Standardized (ROCCS)ROCCS is a standardized rate of change oscillator with "error bars". Rate of change helps traders gauge momentum in a market by comparing the current price with the price "n" periods ago. What makes this special is you get to see the momentum of the momentum via the candle view. The candle transformation utilizes a moving average to smooth the signal however this is only used for the close price. The high and low prices are not smoothed. The moving average has an adjustable period, and so does the standardization.
I hope you can find great use in this upgraded roc indicator.
