cooltoyz: ghost candleThis is a tool. Do with it what you like :)
The ghost candle works by drawing a bigger time frame candles in ghost mode over a chart. The time frame is default of 4h, can be changed in the "format" pop-up.
What we see in a time frame as the "wick", is really a set of candles when looked at lower resolutions/timeframes, that info is crunched into the OHLC format. But, when we look at a represntation of the "internals" of a candle, the wicks are not just a single candle that "walked out of the reservation".
So, in this ghost mode, a wick makes no sense visually. In this case, the OHLC is represented as a darker area for the main candle body, and lighter zones for the wicks. Just another way to sing the same song...
Note 1: the ghost candles are skewed, due to the way that TV plots a line. It's most visible when a chart is very zoomed.
Note 2:As result of the TV real time engine, the last candle presents sometimes mixed colors. There's no easy way to fix it, so until the candle closes, if you see weird colors, well, that's life :)
UCSgears_Transaction Valuation IndexHere is the Version 2 of the TVI indicator posted earlier.
This is inspired from the Value Charts Indicator.

Chart InfoOVERVIEW
What would a general summary of the symbol on the chart look like? Here’s an example: This script was created to help you easily access the essential details of a symbol, which I believe are critical for daily use.
CONCEPTS
When using any indicator or analysing price movement, the characteristics of the chart become important. Each symbol has a unique character and the more we can quickly find out about it, the better. Instead of embedding those details within each individual indicator, it is often more practical to access these data through an external tool. This indicator presents the following results related to the symbol on your chart in a table format:
ID : Ticker ID (Exchange, Base Currency, and Quote Currency)
TIMEFRAME : The chart's time period
START : The starting date of the chart
FINISH : The finishing date of the chart
INTERVAL : The total time between the start and finish dates (based on timeframe). The current bar is not included in the total time until it is closed.
BAR INDEX : The total number of bars on the chart (can also be viewed in both forward and backward directions in the data window as a series type).
VOLATILITY : Percentage ratio of 14-bar ATR to close.
CHANGE : The daily percentage change.
HODL : The percentage return that would be gained if the symbol had been bought and held since the first bar.
DAILY BUY : The percentage return that would be gained if the same amount of buying was made daily (a kind of DCA).
MECHANICS
This is a very simple script. I didn't add user-defined timestamp inputs because I didn’t want to overwhelm the indicator with parameters. However, if requested, i can make improvements in this direction in a second version.
NOTES
I live in Istanbul, so I designed the default timezone offset as GMT+3. Please remember to adjust it according to your own timezone to ensure the date results are accurate.
I hope it helps everyone. Do not forget to manage your risk. And trade as safely as possible. Best of luck!
chart visible bar timeWith the latest added features chart.left_visible_bar_time and chart.right_visible_bar_time it is now possible to
place label.new() positions at the equivalent of 'location.top' and 'location.bottom'
The following are examples of functions which enables to find the visible chart highest/lowest bars:
highest_visible_chart() =>
var float highs = na
highs := time == chart.left_visible_bar_time ? high :
time > chart.left_visible_bar_time and high > highs ? high : highs
lowest_visible_chart() =>
var float lows = na
lows := time == chart.left_visible_bar_time ? low :
time > chart.left_visible_bar_time and low < lows ? low : lows
In this example labels are plotted when a sma crosses another sma
Also combined with 3 boxes, scrolling gives insights how the features work
To all who make Tradingview the way it is, lots and lots of thanks!
Cheers!

CUSTOM intraday volatility chart clockChart clock showing an overview of the day's expected and actual intraday volatility.
In white are only the expected volatility scores. The expected increase or decrease in volatility at any given hour of day compared to the average of the whole day's expected volatility. A 0.5 score two hours from now means that you can expect that hour to be 0.5% more volatile than the average of whole day's volatility.
In blue are the actual or realized volatility scores; the difference between that hour's volatility and what was expected to be its volatility is displayed as a blue bar. If two three hours ago was expected to be a more volatile hour of the day but no movement occurred, a large down bar will print for that hour.
Large swings of daily volatility (i.e. this month is much more or much less volatility than the last) will bias the clock usually only a little higher or lower, although historical volatility peaks/depressions will show the blue realized volatility score to be consistently high/low.
If requested I can change the look of the indicator or add input settings for the input length of clock, which for now is set to 20 bars, which is an approximation of the last month's realized volatility.
Chart OscillatorI present you the chart oscillator where an oscillator (Stoch or RSI) is plotted
on the chart itself (instead of below the chart)
It is inspired on an idea of @Kablamicus
Instead of having the lines between 0 and 100, here the '0-100' are
- lowest(low, len)
- highest(high, len)
An overbought/oversold and a middle line is derived from these lines
and the oscillator goes in between.
It resembles very much the 'normal' oscillator, with a few extra's:
- you can see the movement of the candles against the oscillator
- S/R levels of oscillator, 50 line, overbought/oversold line, 0-100 line
Stoch:
RSI:
Also a table is included with the Stoch/RSI values

Chart Mojo Neutral Unwound CloudPlots days high/low and the Chart Mojo neutral cloud, the zone between vwap and 50% range. A secondary gravity right behind the opening 1 min range. The gray crosses are the vwap the gold dots are 50% of developing range. The shaded area between vwap and 50% range is the Chart Mojo cloud...I think of it as traders from the open tend to unwind to it many times a day. More returns on a trend day but you will see urges toward it on trend days. Price tends to urge to it ahead of 10:30 session "1" and 1:15 Session 2. If you get used to watching it and its relationship to price and the opening 1 min range you should start to see tendencies as to when price unwinds toward it.. etc. Where price is in relation to the cloud and the clouds relationship to the opening 1 min range can reveal real time bias. You will being to see, upon observation how traders target the vwap and 50% with target tier of buys and sells etc. Often unwinds to the zones gravity. It takes force or a catalyst to break the gravity. I use it in conjuction with Time Zone theory and Wave and Pattern force...and look to leading correlating hi beta movers and internals like tick and new streaming highs-new straming lows to get jump on what you see on a big etf or index etc. If you intraday tendencies the neutral is very helpful.
Chart Mojo Noiz Day High/LowThis is an intraday indicator that indicates days high, low, mid range (50%), and vwap. I use it on a 5 min chart or under. Its for range trading, also breakouts, and I use the zone between the 50% of range and vwap as a target during the day at certain times..it has "gravity" ..when traders unwind and or position ahead of something, news or certain time zones with tendencies etc price is drawn towards it. Thanks to Noiz for working on the script. Hope it gives you some Chartmojo.
cooltoyz: shadow candlesAnother tool for the cooltoyz series :)
tired of having to look at multiple time frames for a ticker, and having to mentally mix them to try to guess/visualize trends, or support/resistance levels? so was i, and with this tool i let the chart do the heavy lifting :)
with this, upper time frames are visualized as shadows imposed on the chart itself. there are two levels:
level 1 - represented with strong green/red for candle body, and a thin line for the candle wicks
level 2 - light green/red for the candle body, lighter still for the wicks
it was the best visually appealing representation i could come with, if you find a better one share it in comments, please :)
basically works the same as the previous tool, the ghost candle, but with two levels of time frames superimposed. the same notes and warnings from the ghost candle apply, so go read them, too lazy for a copypasta :)
you can find the ghost candle here:

Backtesting on Non-Standard Charts: Caution! - PineCoders FAQMuch confusion exists in the TradingView community about backtesting on non-standard charts. This script tries to shed some light on the subject in the hope that traders make better use of those chart types.
Non-standard charts are:
Heikin Ashi (HA)
Renko
Kagi
Point & Figure
Range
These chart types are called non-standard because they all transform market prices into synthetic views of price action. Some focus on price movement and disregard time. Others like HA use the same division of bars into fixed time intervals but calculate artificial open, high, low and close (OHLC) values.
Non-standard chart types can provide traders with alternative ways of interpreting price action, but they are not designed to test strategies or run automated traded systems where results depend on the ability to enter and exit trades at precise price levels at specific times, whether orders are issued manually or algorithmically. Ironically, the same characteristics that make non-standard chart types interesting from an analytical point of view also make them ill-suited to trade execution. Why? Because of the dislocation that a synthetic view of price action creates between its non-standard chart prices and real market prices at any given point in time. Switching from a non-standard chart price point into the market always entails a translation of time/price dimensions that results in uncertainty—and uncertainty concerning the level or the time at which orders are executed is detrimental to all strategies.
The delta between the chart’s price when an order is issued (which is assumed to be the expected price) and the price at which that order is filled is called slippage . When working from normal chart types, slippage can be caused by one or more of the following conditions:
• Time delay between order submission and execution. During this delay the market may move normally or be subject to large orders from other traders that will cause large moves of the bid/ask levels.
• Lack of bids for a market sell or lack of asks for a market buy at the current price level.
• Spread taken by middlemen in the order execution process.
• Any other event that changes the expected fill price.
When a market order is submitted, matching engines attempt to fill at the best possible price at the exchange. TradingView strategies usually fill market orders at the opening price of the next candle. A non-standard chart type can produce misleading results because the open of the next candle may or may not correspond to the real market price at that time. This creates artificial and often beneficial slippage that would not exist on standard charts.
Consider an HA chart. The open for each candle is the average of the previous HA bar’s open and close prices. The open of the HA candle is a synthetic value, but the real market open at the time the new HA candle begins on the chart is the unrelated, regular open at the chart interval. The HA open will often be lower on long entries and higher on short entries, resulting in unrealistically advantageous fills.
Another example is a Renko chart. A Renko chart is a type of chart that only measures price movement. The purpose of a Renko chart is to cluster price action into regular intervals, which consequently removes the time element. Because Trading View does not provide tick data as a price source, it relies on chart interval close values to construct Renko bricks. As a consequence, a new brick is constructed only when the interval close penetrates one or more brick thresholds. When a new brick starts on the chart, it is because the previous interval’s close was above or below the next brick threshold. The open price of the next brick will likely not represent the current price at the time this new brick begins, so correctly simulating an order is impossible.
Some traders have argued with us that backtesting and trading off HA charts and other non-standard charts is useful, and so we have written this script to show traders what happens when order fills from backtesting on non-standard charts are compared to real-world fills at market prices.
Let’s review how TV backtesting works. TV backtesting uses a broker emulator to execute orders. When an order is executed by the broker emulator on historical bars, the price used for the fill is either the close of the order’s submission bar or, more often, the open of the next. The broker emulator only has access to the chart’s prices, and so it uses those prices to fill orders. When backtesting is run on a non-standard chart type, orders are filled at non-standard prices, and so backtesting results are non-standard—i.e., as unrealistic as the prices appearing on non-standard charts. This is not a bug; where else is the broker emulator going to fetch prices than from the chart?
This script is a strategy that you can run on either standard or non-standard chart types. It is meant to help traders understand the differences between backtests run on both types of charts. For every backtest, a label at the end of the chart shows two global net profit results for the strategy:
• The net profits (in currency) calculated by TV backtesting with orders filled at the chart’s prices.
• The net profits (in currency) calculated from the same orders, but filled at market prices (fetched through security() calls from the underlying real market prices) instead of the chart’s prices.
If you run the script on a non-standard chart, the top result in the label will be the result you would normally get from the TV backtesting results window. The bottom result will show you a more realistic result because it is calculated from real market fills.
If you run the script on a normal chart type (bars, candles, hollow candles, line, area or baseline) you will see the same result for both net profit numbers since both are run on the same real market prices. You will sometimes see slight discrepancies due to occasional differences between chart prices and the corresponding information fetched through security() calls.
Features
• Results shown in the Data Window (third icon from the top right of your chart) are:
— Cumulative results
— For each order execution bar on the chart, the chart and market previous and current fills, and the trade results calculated from both chart and market fills.
• You can choose between 2 different strategies, both elementary.
• You can use HA prices for the calculations determining entry/exit conditions. You can use this to see how a strategy calculated from HA values can run on a normal chart. You will notice that such strategies will not produce the same results as the real market results generated from HA charts. This is due to the different environment backtesting is running on where for example, position sizes for entries on the same bar will be calculated differently because HA and standard chart close prices differ.
• You can choose repainting/non-repainting signals.
• You can show MAs, entry/exit markers and market fill levels.
• You can show candles built from the underlying market prices.
• You can color the background for occurrences where an order is filled at a different real market price than the chart’s price.
Notes
• On some non-standard chart types you will not obtain any results. This is sometimes due to how certain types of non-standard types work, and sometimes because the script will not emit orders if no underlying market information is detected.
• The script illustrates how those who want to use HA values to calculate conditions can do so from a standard chart. They will then be getting orders emitted on HA conditions but filled at more realistic prices because their strategy can run on a standard chart.
• On some non-standard chart types you will see market results surpass chart results. While this may seem interesting, our way of looking at it is that it points to how unreliable non-standard chart backtesting is, and why it should be avoided.
• In order not to extend an already long description, we do not discuss the particulars of executing orders on the realtime bar when using non-standard charts. Unless you understand the minute details of what’s going on in the realtime bar on a particular non-standard chart type, we recommend staying away from this.
• Some traders ask us: Why does TradingView allow backtesting on non-standard chart types if it produces unrealistic results? That’s somewhat like asking a hammer manufacturer why it makes hammers if hammers can hurt you. We believe it’s a trader’s responsibility to understand the tools he is using.
Takeaways
• Non-standard charts are not bad per se, but they can be badly used.
• TV backtesting on non-standard charts is not broken and doesn’t require fixing. Traders asking for a fix are in dire need of learning more about trading. We recommend they stop trading until they understand why.
• Stay away from—even better, report—any vendor presenting you with strategies running on non-standard charts and implying they are showing reliable results.
• If you don’t understand everything we discussed, don’t use non-standard charts at all.
• Study carefully how non-standard charts are built and the inevitable compromises used in calculating them so you can understand their limitations.

Multi-Chart Widget [LuxAlgo]The Multi-Chart Widget tool is a comprehensive solution crafted for traders and investors looking to analyze multiple financial instruments simultaneously. With the capability to showcase up to three additional charts, users can customize each chart by selecting different financial instruments, and timeframes.
Users can add various widely used technical indicators to the charts such as the relative strength index, Supertrend, moving averages, Bollinger Bands...etc.
🔶 USAGE
The tool offers traders and investors a comprehensive view of multiple charts simultaneously. By displaying up to three additional charts alongside the primary chart, users can analyze assets across different timeframes, compare their performance, and make informed decisions.
Users have the flexibility to choose from various customizable chart types, including the recently added "Volume Candles" option.
This tool allows adding to the chart some of the most widely used technical indicators, such as the Supertrend, Bollinger Bands, and various moving averages.
In addition to the charting capabilities, the tool also features a dynamic statistic panel that provides essential metrics and key insights into the selected assets. Users can track performance indicators such as relative strength, trend, and volatility, enabling them to identify trends, patterns, and trading opportunities efficiently.
🔶 DETAILS
A brief overview of the indicators featured in the statistic panel is given in the sub-section below:
🔹Dual Supertrend
The Dual Supertrend is a modified version of the Supertrend indicator, which is based on the concept of trend following. It generates buy or sell signals by analyzing the asset's price movement. The Dual Supertrend incorporates two Supertrend indicators with different parameters to provide potentially more accurate signals. It helps traders identify trend reversals and establish trend direction in a more responsive manner compared to a single Supertrend.
🔹Relative Strength Index
The Relative Strength Index is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. RSI oscillates between 0 and 100 and is typically used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in a market. Traditionally, RSI values above 70 are considered overbought, suggesting that the asset may be due for a reversal or correction, while RSI values below 30 are considered oversold, indicating potential buying opportunities.
🔹Volatility
Volatility in trading refers to the degree of variation or fluctuation in the price of a financial instrument, such as a stock, currency pair, or commodity, over a certain period of time. It is a measure of the speed and magnitude of price changes and reflects the level of uncertainty or risk in the market. High volatility implies that prices are experiencing rapid and significant movements, while low volatility suggests that prices are relatively stable and are not changing much. Traders often use volatility as an indicator to assess the potential risk and return of an investment and to make informed decisions about when to enter or exit trades.
🔹R-Squared (R²)
R-squared, also known as the coefficient of determination, is a statistical measure that indicates the proportion of the variance in the dependent variable that is predictable from the independent variable(s). In other words, it quantifies the goodness of fit of a regression model to the observed data. R-squared values range from %0 to %100, with higher values indicating a better fit of the model to the data. An R-squared of 100% means that all movements of a security are completely explained by movements in the index, while an R-squared value of %0 indicates that the model does not explain any of the variability in the dependent variable.
In simpler terms, in investing, a high R-squared, from 85% to 100%, indicates that the stock’s or fund’s performance moves relatively in line with the index. Conversely, a low R-squared (around 70% or less) indicates that the fund's performance tends to deviate significantly from the movements of the index.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹Mini Chart(s) Generic Settings
Mini Charts Separator: This option toggles the visibility of the separator lines.
Number Of Bars: Specifies the number of bars to be displayed for each mini chart.
Horizontal Offset: Determines the distance at which the mini charts will be displayed from the primary chart.
🔹Mini Chart Settings: Top - Middle - Bottom
Mini Chart Top/Middle/Bottom: Toggle the visibility of the selected mini chart.
Symbol: Choose the financial instrument to be displayed in the mini chart. If left as an empty string, it will default to the current chart instrument.
Timeframe: This option determines the timeframe used for calculating the mini charts. If a timeframe lower than the chart's timeframe is selected, the calculations will be based on the chart's timeframe.
Chart Type: Selection from various chart types for the mini charts, including candles, volume candles, line, area, columns, high-low, and Heikin Ashi.
Chart Size: Determines the size of the mini chart.
Technical Indicator: Selection from various technical indicators to be displayed on top of the mini charts.
Note : Chart sizing is relative to other mini charts. For example, If all the mini charts are sized to x5 relative to each other, the result will be the same as if they were all sized as x1. This is because the relative proportions between the mini charts remain consistent regardless of their absolute sizes. Therefore, their positions and sizes relative to each other remain unchanged, resulting in the same visual representation despite the differences in absolute scale.
🔹Supertrend Settings
ATR Length: is the lookback length for the ATR calculation.
Factor: is what the ATR is multiplied by to offset the bands from price.
Color: color customization option.
🔹Moving Average Settings
Type: is the type of the moving average, available types of moving averages include SMA (Simple Moving Average), EMA (Exponential Moving Average), RMA (Root Mean Square Moving Average), HMA (Hull Moving Average), WMA (Weighted Moving Average), and VWMA (Volume Weighted Moving Average).
Source: Determines what data from each bar will be used in calculations.
Length: The time period to be used in calculating the Moving Average.
Color: Color customization option.
🔹Bollinger Bands Settings
Basis Type: Determines the type of Moving Average that is applied to the basis plot line.
Source: Determines what data from each bar will be used in calculations.
Length: The time period to be used in calculating the Moving Average which creates the base for the Upper and Lower Bands.
StdDev: The number of Standard Deviations away from the Moving Average that the Upper and Lower Bands should be.
Color: Color customization options for basis, upper and lower bands.
🔹Mini Chart(s) Panel Settings
Mini Chart(s) Panel: Controls the visibility of the panel containing the mini charts.
Dual Supertrend: Toggles the display of the evaluated dual super trend, based on the super trend settings provided below the option. The definitions for the options are the same as stated above for the super trend.
Relative Strength Index: Toggles the display of the evaluated RSI, based on the source and length settings provided below the option.
Volatility: Toggles the display of the calculated Volatility, based on the length settings provided below the option.
R-Squared: Toggles the display of the calculated R-Squared (R²), based on the length settings provided below the option.
🔶 LIMITATIONS
The tool allows users to display mini charts featuring various types of instruments alongside the primary chart instrument. However, there's a limitation: the selected primary chart instrument must have an ACTIVE market status. Alternatively, if the primary chart instrument is not active, the mini chart instruments must belong to the same exchange and have the same type as the primary chart instrument.
Crypto Candlestick Patterns - CN VersionIntroduction:
The candlestick chart has been used for centuries since the Japanese applications. Based on the candlestick charting, people developed candle pattern analysis. Now we have tons of books or articles illustrating the usage of reversal patterns and continuation patterns, and computers provide a faster and preciser way to recognize these pattern.
Originally we have a common *All Candlestick Patterns* indicator to use. This indicator works well for most of the markets or commodities including stocks and futures. However, for cryptocurrency market, quite a few patterns are not suitable anymore. For example, crypto markets are continuously running 7x24hrs and the big coins with good volume tend to have almost continuous price in commonly used time periods. Hence, original patterns with "window" or "jump" concepts are usually not applied to crypto.
For these issues, I modified the original *All Candlestick Patterns* indicator and introduced the Chinese version for people speaking such language.
Like most of the other indicators, I personally do not recommend anyone to simply follow the patterns it shows to enter the market. You may take these recognized patterns as a reference, and further actions on trading should be done with several other tools, such as MACD, RSI, Stochastic and etc.
Usage:
The application of this indicator is basically the same as the original *All Candlestick Patterns* and you will get an automatically generated pattern recognition by your computer system.
There are a few parameters to adjust for the indicator:
Trending Detection Settings: Here you can choose SMA-Fast, SMA-Fast/Slow or None detecting options to recognize the current market trend. This is a minor improvement from the original indicator and you can choose your preferred trending detecting settings by changing the length of SMA.
Candlestick Settings: You may adjust the rules to recognize the properties of candlesticks. I add a "perturbation" parameter here, which actually is an error tolerance for pattern recognition. Some seemingly pattern may not fulfill the strict rules of classic candlestick patterns, but we may recognize them by watch the charting on our own. Hence this error tolerance may show more potential patterns from the charting.
Plot Settings: It is the usually colour choice and providing options for bullish/bearish.
Pattern Settings: Here you can select the patterns that you would like to see from the charting. You can pick the preferred reversal patterns or choose to show all the patterns. It's all up to you!
Features:
Language Translation: Since this is a Chinese language version. I have replaced all the English explanation of patterns to Chinese ones. Move your mouse to the label, you will find a brief intro of the pattern and a notice about bullish or bearish signals it indicates.
Alerts: As the same as the original one, we will have the alert options from this indicator. All the alerts and their messages are Chinese. You can activate alerts based on this indicator from the alert management section, as the same as many other indicators you have used before.
Future Improvements:
For now I am satisfied with the work I have done, and I may apply it to several charts. It's welcome for any users to take a look at the codes and put modifications or improvements towards it. Currently most of the comments in the code are in Chinese language, since basically it's for Chinese speaking users, while the code itself and the parameter names should be pretty easy to understand in English. (I have been using English for writing in the past 8 years, hence this introduction is in English as well.)
Previous 4-Hour High/Low Indicator Name: Previous 4-Hour High/Low Lines
Description:
This indicator highlights the high and low levels of the previous candle from a user-defined timeframe (default: 4 hours) and extends these levels both to the left and right across the chart. It allows traders to visualize key support and resistance levels from higher timeframes while analyzing lower timeframe charts.
Key Features:
• Customizable Timeframe: Select any timeframe (e.g., 4-hour, daily) to track the high and low of the previous candle.
• Dynamic Updates: The high and low levels update automatically with each new candle.
• Extended Levels: Lines extend both left and right, providing a clear reference for past and future price action.
• Overlay on Chart: The indicator works seamlessly on any timeframe, making it ideal for multi-timeframe analysis.
Use Case:
This tool is perfect for traders who rely on higher timeframe levels for setting entry/exit points, identifying potential breakout zones, or managing risk. By visualizing these levels directly on lower timeframe charts, traders can make informed decisions without switching between charts.
Breakout and Breakdown Indicator with RetestsThis indicator is designed to help traders identify high-probability breakout and breakdown points based on the first 5 minutes of market activity (9:30 am to 9:35 am). It works effectively on both the 1-minute and 5-minute timeframes, making it ideal for day traders and scalpers.
This indicator is a better indicator of my previous 5-Minute Opening Range Breakout indicator.
Key Features:
Dynamic Support and Resistance Lines: Automatically plots the highest and lowest price levels from 9:30 am to 9:35 am, providing essential support and resistance zones.
Breakout/Breakdown Detection: Identifies and marks successful breakout and breakdown points only after a confirmed retest, ensuring more accurate signals.
Visual Markers: Uses customizable green diamonds for successful breakouts and red diamonds for successful breakdowns, allowing easy identification on the chart.
Customization Options:
Change Colors: You can personalize the color of the breakout and breakdown markers, the label text, and the lines drawn from the 9:30 am to 9:35 am window.
Adapt to Your Chart: Adjust the indicator to match your preferred charting theme, ensuring it blends seamlessly with your trading setup.
How It Works:
Plots Key Levels: Identifies the highest and lowest prices during the first 5 minutes of trading (9:30 am to 9:35 am) and plots them on the chart.
Monitors Retests: Waits for a retest of these levels before confirming a breakout or breakdown.
Labels Breakouts/Breakdowns: After a retest, successful breakouts are marked with green diamonds and "Breakout" text, while breakdowns are marked with red diamonds and "Breakdown" text.
Why Use This Indicator?
Avoid False Signals: The retest requirement helps filter out false breakouts and breakdowns, offering more reliable trading signals.
Works Across Timeframes: Suitable for both 1-minute and 5-minute charts, allowing flexibility for different trading styles.
Some what Customizable: Adjust colors to fit your charting preferences and enhance visual clarity.
Recommended Use: Combine this indicator with other technical analysis tools, such as volume, candlestick patterns, or moving averages, for more informed trading decisions.

The indicator recalculates the OHLC (Open, High, Low, Close) prices by reversing them along the price axis. This means that what typically would be an upward movement is displayed as a downward movement, and vice versa. This reversal provides an alternative view that can help traders identify hidden patterns and potential reversal points that might not be obvious on a standard chart.
Reversed Ichimoku Cloud:
All components of the Ichimoku Cloud indicator are recalculated based on the reversed price data. This includes:
Tenkan-sen (Conversion Line): Reversed based on the highest and lowest prices over the specified period.
Kijun-sen (Base Line): Reversed in a similar manner to the Tenkan-sen, providing a medium-term perspective on price trends.
Senkou Span A (Leading Span A): Reversed to form one boundary of the Kumo (cloud), offering insight into future support and resistance levels.
Senkou Span B (Leading Span B): Reversed to form the other boundary of the Kumo, complementing Senkou Span A.
Chikou Span (Lagging Span): Reversed and plotted backward for additional confirmation of trend direction and strength.
Dynamic Price Range Calculation:
The indicator dynamically calculates the maximum and minimum prices over the last 500 bars (or the available range if fewer bars are present). This ensures that the reversal is always based on the most relevant data, providing accurate and up-to-date visualizations.
Visual Enhancements:
The reversed candlesticks are color-coded for easy interpretation: green for upward movements and red for downward movements, based on the reversed data.
The Ichimoku Cloud is filled with semi-transparent colors to clearly distinguish between bullish and bearish conditions even in its reversed state.
Debugging Aids:
For transparency and accuracy, the indicator plots the maximum and minimum price lines used for the reversal calculations. This allows users to verify the internal workings of the indicator and ensure the reversal logic is correctly applied.
Usage:
This indicator is ideal for advanced traders and analysts who want to explore market behavior from an unconventional angle. By reversing both the candlestick chart and the Ichimoku Cloud, it provides a unique perspective that can uncover new trading opportunities and enhance market analysis.
Customization:
Users can customize the periods for the Tenkan-sen, Kijun-sen, and Senkou Span B, as well as the displacement for the Ichimoku Cloud. This flexibility allows traders to adapt the indicator to their specific trading strategies and timeframes.
Conclusion:
The "Advanced Fully Reversed Candles with Reversed Ichimoku" indicator is a powerful tool that transforms traditional market analysis. By inverting both price movements and key technical indicators, it opens up a new dimension of trading insights, helping traders to see the market in a completely different light.

Point and Figure (PnF) ChartThis is live and non-repainting Point and Figure Charting tool. The tool has it’s own P&F engine and not using integrated function of Trading View.
Point and Figure method is over 150 years old. It consist of columns that represent filtered price movements. Time is not a factor on P&F chart but as you can see with this script P&F chart created on time chart.
P&F chart provide several advantages, some of them are filtering insignificant price movements and noise, focusing on important price movements and making support/resistance levels much easier to identify.
If you are new to Point & Figure Chart then you better get some information about it before using this tool. There are very good web sites and books. Please PM me if you need help about resources.
Options in the Script
Box size is one of the most important part of Point and Figure Charting. Chart price movement sensitivity is determined by the Point and Figure scale. Large box sizes see little movement across a specific price region, small box sizes see greater price movement on P&F chart. There are four different box scaling with this tool: Traditional, Percentage, Dynamic (ATR), or User-Defined
4 different methods for Box size can be used in this tool.
User Defined: The box size is set by user. A larger box size will result in more filtered price movements and fewer reversals. A smaller box size will result in less filtered price movements and more reversals.
ATR: Box size is dynamically calculated by using ATR, default period is 20.
Percentage: uses box sizes that are a fixed percentage of the stock's price. If percentage is 1 and stock’s price is $100 then box size will be $1
Traditional: uses a predefined table of price ranges to determine what the box size should be.
Price Range Box Size
Under 0.25 0.0625
0.25 to 1.00 0.125
1.00 to 5.00 0.25
5.00 to 20.00 0.50
20.00 to 100 1.0
100 to 200 2.0
200 to 500 4.0
500 to 1000 5.0
1000 to 25000 50.0
25000 and up 500.0
Default value is “ATR”, you may use one of these scaling method that suits your trading strategy.
If ATR or Percentage is chosen then there is rounding algorithm according to mintick value of the security. For example if mintick value is 0.001 and box size (ATR/Percentage) is 0.00124 then box size becomes 0.001.
And also while using dynamic box size (ATR or Percentage), box size changes only when closing price changed.
Reversal : It is the number of boxes required to change from a column of Xs to a column of Os or from a column of Os to a column of Xs. Default value is 3 (most used). For example if you choose reversal = 2 then you get the chart similar to Renko chart.
Source: Closing price or High-Low prices can be chosen as data source for P&F charting.
Chart Style: There are 3 options for chart style: “Candle”, “Area” or “Don’t show”.
As Area:
As Candle:
X/O Column Style: it can show all columns from opening price or only last Xs/Os.
Color Theme: different themes exist => Green/Red, Yellow/Blue, White/Yellow, Orange/Blue, Lime/Red, Blue/Red
Show Breakouts is the option to show Breakouts
This tool detects & shows following Breakouts:
Triple Top/Bottom,
Triple Top Ascending,
Triple Bottom Descending,
Simple Buy/Sell (Double Top/Bottom),
Simple Buy With Rising Bottom,
Simple Sell With Declining Top
Catapult bullish/bearish
Show Horizontal Count Targets: Finds the congestion or consolidation pattern and if there is breakout then it calculates the Target by using Horizontal Count method (based on the width of congestion pattern). It shows how many column exist on congestion area. There is no guarantee that prices will reach the target.
Show Vertical Count Targets: When Triple Top/Bottom Breakouts occured the script calculates the target by using Vertical Count Method (based on the length of the column). There is no guarantee that prices will reach the target.
For both methods there is auto target cancellation if price goes below congestion bottom or above congestion top.
trend is calculated by EMA of closing price of the P&F
Whipsaw protection:
Last options are “Show info panel” and Labeling Offset. Script shows current box size, reversal, and recommanded minimum and maximum box size. And also it shows the price level to reverse the column (Xs <-> Os) and the price level to add at least 1 more box to column. This is the option to put these labels 10, 20, 30, 50 or 100 bars away from the last bar. Labeling content and color change according to X/O column.

Adaptive Freedom Machine w/labelsAdaptive Freedom Machine w/ Labels
Overview
The Adaptive Freedom Machine w/ Labels is a versatile Pine Script indicator designed to assist traders in identifying buy and sell opportunities across various market conditions (trending, ranging, or volatile). It combines Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), Relative Strength Index (RSI), Average True Range (ATR), and customizable time filters to generate actionable signals. The indicator overlays on the price chart, displaying EMAs, a dynamic cloud, scaled RSI levels, buy/sell signals, and market condition labels, making it suitable for swing trading, day trading, or scalping.
What It Does
This indicator generates buy and sell signals based on the interaction of two EMAs, filtered by RSI thresholds, ATR-based volatility, and user-defined time windows. It adapts to the selected market condition by adjusting EMA lengths, RSI thresholds, and trading hours. A dynamic cloud highlights trend direction or neutral zones, and candlestick bodies are colored in neutral conditions for clarity. A table displays real-time trend and volatility status.
How It Works
The indicator uses the following components:
EMAs: Two EMAs (short and long) are calculated on a user-selected timeframe (1, 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes). Their crossover or crossunder generates potential buy/sell signals, with lengths adjusted based on the market condition (e.g., longer EMAs for trending markets, shorter for ranging).
Dynamic Cloud: The area between the EMAs forms a cloud, colored green for uptrends, red for downtrends, or a user-defined color (default yellow) for neutral zones (when EMAs are close, determined by an ATR-based threshold). Users can widen the cloud for visibility.
RSI Filter: RSI is scaled to price levels and plotted on the chart (optional). Signals are filtered to ensure RSI is within user-defined buy/sell thresholds and not in overbought/oversold zones, with thresholds tailored to the market condition.
ATR Volatility Filter: An optional filter ensures signals occur during sufficient volatility (ATR(14) > SMA(ATR, 20)).
Time Filter: Signals are restricted to a user-defined or market-specific time window (e.g., 10:00–15:00 UTC for volatile markets), with an option for custom hours.
Visual Aids: Buy/sell signals appear as green triangles (buy) or red triangles (sell). Candlesticks in neutral zones are colored (default yellow). A table in the top-right corner shows the current trend (Uptrend, Downtrend, Neutral) and volatility (High or Low).
The indicator ensures compatibility with standard chart types (e.g., candlestick charts) to produce realistic signals, avoiding non-standard types like Heikin Ashi or Renko.
How to Use It
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to a candlestick or bar chart on TradingView.
Configure Settings:
Timeframe: Choose a timeframe (1, 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes) to align with your trading style.
Market Condition: Select one market condition (Trending, Ranging, or Volatile). Volatile is the default if none is selected. Only one condition can be active.
Filters:
Enable/disable the ATR volatility filter to trade only in high-volatility periods.
Enable the time filter and choose default hours (specific to the market condition) or set custom UTC hours.
Cloud Settings: Adjust the cloud width, neutral zone threshold, and color. Enable/disable the neutral cloud.
RSI Display: Toggle the scaled RSI and its thresholds on the chart.
Interpret Signals:
Buy Signal: A green triangle below the bar indicates a potential long entry (EMA crossover, RSI above buy threshold, within time window, and passing volatility filter).
Sell Signal: A red triangle above the bar indicates a potential short entry (EMA crossunder, RSI below sell threshold, within time window, and passing volatility filter).
Neutral Zone: Yellow candlesticks and cloud (if enabled) suggest a lack of clear trend; avoid trading or use for range-bound strategies.
Monitor the Table: Check the top-right table for real-time trend (Uptrend, Downtrend, Neutral) and volatility (High or Low) to confirm market context.
Unique Features
Adaptive Parameters: Automatically adjusts EMA lengths, RSI thresholds, and trading hours based on the selected market condition, reducing manual tweaking.
Neutral Zone Detection: Uses an ATR-based threshold to identify low-trend periods, helping traders avoid choppy markets.
Scaled RSI Visualization: Plots RSI and thresholds directly on the price chart, making it easier to assess momentum relative to price action.
Flexible Time Filtering: Supports both default and custom UTC-based trading windows, ideal for day traders targeting specific sessions.
Dynamic Cloud: Enhances trend visualization with customizable width and neutral zone coloring, improving readability.
Notes
Use on standard candlestick or bar charts to ensure realistic signals.
Test the indicator on a demo account to understand its behavior in your chosen market and timeframe.
Adjust settings to match your trading strategy, but avoid over-optimizing for past data.
The indicator is not a standalone system; combine it with other analysis (e.g., support/resistance, news events) for better results.
Limitations
Signals may lag in fast-moving markets due to EMA-based calculations.
Neutral zone detection may vary in extremely volatile or illiquid markets.
Time filters are UTC-based; ensure your platform’s timezone settings align.
This indicator is designed for traders seeking a customizable, trend-following tool that adapts to different market environments while providing clear visual cues and robust filtering.
SMC+The "SMC+" indicator is a comprehensive tool designed to overlay key Smart Money Concepts (SMC) levels, support/resistance zones, order blocks (OB), fair value gaps (FVG), and trap detection on your TradingView chart. It aims to assist traders in identifying potential areas of interest based on price action, swing structures, and volume dynamics across multiple timeframes. This indicator is fully customizable, allowing users to adjust lookback periods, colors, opacity, and sensitivity to suit their trading style.
Key Components and Functionality
1. Key Levels (Support and Resistance)
This section plots horizontal lines representing support and resistance levels based on highs and lows over three distinct lookback periods, plus daily nearest levels.
Short-Term Lookback Period (Default: 20 bars)
Plots the highest high (short_high) and lowest low (short_low) over the specified period.
Visualized as dotted lines with customizable colors (Short-Term Resistance Color, Short-Term Support Color) and opacity (Short-Term Resistance Opacity, Short-Term Support Opacity).
Adjustment Tip: Increase the lookback (e.g., to 30-50) for less frequent but stronger levels on higher timeframes, or decrease (e.g., to 10-15) for scalping on lower timeframes.
Long-Term Lookback Period (Default: 50 bars)
Plots broader support (long_low) and resistance (long_high) levels using a solid line style.
Customizable via Long-Term Resistance Color, Long-Term Support Color, and their respective opacity settings.
Adjustment Tip: Extend to 100-200 bars for swing trading or major trend analysis on daily/weekly charts.
Extra-Long Lookback Period (Default: 100 bars)
Identifies significant historical highs (extra_long_high) and lows (extra_long_low) with dashed lines.
Configurable with Extra-Long Resistance Color, Extra-Long Support Color, and opacity settings.
Adjustment Tip: Use 200-500 bars for monthly charts to capture macro-level key zones.
Daily Nearest Resistance and Support Levels
Dynamically calculates the nearest resistance (daily_res_level) and support (daily_sup_level) based on the current day’s price action relative to historical highs and lows.
Displayed with Daily Resistance Color and Daily Support Color (with opacity options).
Adjustment Tip: Works best on intraday charts (e.g., 15m, 1h) to track daily pivots; combine with volume profile for confirmation.
How It Works: These levels update dynamically as new highs/lows form, providing a visual guide to potential reversal or breakout zones.
2. SMC Inputs (Smart Money Concepts)
This section identifies swing structures, order blocks, fair value gaps, and entry signals based on SMC principles.
SMC Swing Lookback Period (Default: 12 bars)
Defines the period for detecting swing highs (smc_swing_high) and lows (smc_swing_low).
Adjustment Tip: Increase to 20-30 for smoother swings on higher timeframes; reduce to 5-10 for faster signals on lower timeframes.
Minimum Swing Size (%) (Default: 0.5%)
Filters out minor price movements to focus on significant swings.
Adjustment Tip: Raise to 1-2% for volatile markets (e.g., crypto) to avoid noise; lower to 0.2-0.3% for forex pairs with tight ranges.
Order Block Sensitivity (Default: 1.0)
Scales the size of detected order blocks (OBs) for bullish reversal (smc_ob_bull), bearish reversal (smc_ob_bear), and continuation (smc_cont_ob).
Visuals include customizable colors, opacity, border thickness, and blinking effects (e.g., SMC Bullish Reversal OB Color, SMC Bearish Reversal OB Blink Thickness).
Adjustment Tip: Increase to 1.5-2.0 for wider OBs in choppy markets; keep at 1.0 for precision in trending conditions.
Minimum FVG Size (%) (Default: 0.3%)
Sets the minimum gap size for Fair Value Gaps (fvg_high, fvg_low), displayed as boxes with Fair Value Gap Color and FVG Opacity.
Adjustment Tip: Increase to 0.5-1% for larger, more reliable gaps; decrease to 0.1-0.2% for scalping smaller inefficiencies.
How It Works:
Bullish Reversal OB: Detects a bearish candle followed by a bullish break, marking a potential demand zone.
Bearish Reversal OB: Identifies a bullish candle followed by a bearish break, marking a supply zone.
Continuation OB: Spots strong bullish momentum after a prior high, indicating a continuation zone.
FVG: Highlights bullish gaps where price may retrace to fill.
Entry Signals: Plots triangles (SMC Long Entry) when price retests an OB with a liquidity sweep or break of structure (BOS).
3. Trap Inputs
This section detects potential bull and bear traps based on price action, volume, and key level rejections.
Min Down Move for Bear Trap (%) (Default: 1.0%)
Sets the minimum drop required after a bearish OB to qualify as a trap.
Visualized with Bear Trap Color, Bear Trap Opacity, and blinking borders.
Adjustment Tip: Increase to 2-3% for stronger traps in trending markets; lower to 0.5% for ranging conditions.
Min Up Move for Bull Trap (%) (Default: 1.0%)
Sets the minimum rise required after a bullish OB to flag a trap.
Customizable with Bull Trap Color, Bull Trap Border Thickness, etc.
Adjustment Tip: Adjust similarly to bear traps based on market volatility.
Volume Lookback for Traps (Default: 5 bars)
Compares current volume to a moving average (avg_volume) to filter low-volume traps.
Adjustment Tip: Increase to 10-20 for confirmation on higher timeframes; reduce to 3 for intraday sensitivity.
How It Works:
Bear Trap: Triggers when price drops significantly after a bearish OB but reverses up with low volume or support rejection.
Bull Trap: Activates when price rises after a bullish OB but fails with low volume or resistance rejection.
Boxes highlight trap zones, resetting when price breaks out.
4. Visual Customization
Line Width (Default: 2)
Adjusts thickness of support/resistance lines.
Tip: Increase to 3-4 for visibility on cluttered charts.
Blink On (Default: Close)
Sets whether OB/FVG borders blink based on Open or Close price interaction.
Tip: Use "Open" for intraday precision; "Close" for confirmed reactions.
Colors and Opacity: Each element (OBs, FVGs, traps, key levels) has customizable colors, opacity (0-100), border thickness (1-5 or 1-7), and blink effects for dynamic visualization.
How to Use SMC+
Setup: Apply the indicator to any chart and adjust inputs based on your timeframe and market.
Key Levels: Watch for price reactions at short, long, extra-long, or daily levels for potential reversals or breakouts.
SMC Signals: Look for entry signals (triangles) near OBs or FVGs, confirmed by liquidity sweeps or BOS.
Traps: Avoid false breakouts by monitoring trap boxes, especially near key levels with low volume.
Notes:
This indicator is a visual aid and does not guarantee trading success. Combine it with other analysis tools and risk management strategies.
Performance may vary across markets and timeframes; test settings thoroughly before use.
For optimal results, experiment with lookback periods and sensitivity settings to match your trading style.
The default settings are optimal for 1 minute and 10 second time frames for small cap low float stocks.
Continuation OB are Blue.
Bullish Reversal OB color is Green
Bearish Reversal OB color is Red
FVG color is purple
Bear Trap OB is red with a green border and often appears with a Bearish Reversal OB signaling caution to a short position.
Bull trap OB is green with a Red border signaling caution to a long position.
All active OB area are highlighted and solid in color while other non active OB area are dimmed.
My personal favorite setups are when we have an active bullish reversal with an active FVG along with an active Continuation OB.
Another personal favorite is the Bearish reversal OB signaling an end to a recent uptrend.
The Trap OB detection are also a unique and Original helpful source of information.
The OB have a white boarder by default that are colored black giving a simulated blinking effect when price is acting in that zone.
The Trap OB border are colored with respect to direction of intended trap, all of which can be customized to personal style.
All vaild OB zones are shown compact in size ,a unique and original view until its no longer valid.
