HhLl-OscilatorSimple oscillator which checks how many highs and how many lows the price is making. Parameters are as explained below:
lookback - Checks how many highs and lows it is making in these many bars. Sum of all highs and lows are taken for plotting.
periods - Initial period to check high and lows
multiples - Number of multiples on initial period for which highs and lows are checked
colorCandles - CandleColor based on the oscillator
If periods is 20 and multiples is 5 and loopback is 10
Indicator checks for last 10 bars how many highs/lows are made for 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 periods. Sum of all highs and lows are plotted on the oscillator overlay

Expanded Floor PivotsHello Everyone,
The Expanded Floor Pivots is introduced in the book "Secrets of a Pivot Boss: Revealing Proven Methods for Profiting in the Market " by Franklin Ochoa. He added four new levels: S4, R4, BC and TC. There are many great ideas in the book, such using these levels, following trend, time price opportunity and much more. (Thanks to @tonyjab for pushing me to read this book)
The definition/formula of the levels defined in the book:
r1 = 2 * pivot - Low
r2 = pivot + (High - Low)
r3 = r1 + (High - Low)
r4 = r3 + (r2 - r1)
tc = (pivot - bc) + pivot
pivot = (High + Low + Close) / 3
bc = (High + Low) / 2
s1 = 2 * pivot - High
s2 = pivot - (High - Low)
s3 = s1 - (High - Low)
s4 = s3 - (s1 - s2)
The area between TC and BC is used as Pivot Channel, (blue area in the chart). you can see how it helps on identifying the trend.
Options:
By default the script decides Higher Time Frame but if you want you can set HTF as you wish.
You can choose line style as: Solid, Circles or Cross
and also you have option to show only last period or all historical levels.
Enjoy!

- Custom Color for POC/VA/VWAP levels, Transparency for buy/sell levels
WARNING:
- Compilation Time: 1 min 20 sec
Usage:
- specify max_level/min_level/spacing (required)
- select range (start_bar, range length), confirm with range highlighting
- select volume type: Buy/Sell/Total
- select mode Value Area/VWAP to show corresponding levels
- flip/select anchor point to position the buy/sell levels
- use Horiz Buy/Sell SLI mode with 100 or Vertical SLI with 300 levels if needed
- use POC/Developing POC/VA/VWAP High/Low as S/R levels. Usually daily values from 1-3 days back are used as levels for the current day.
SLI:
use SLI modes to extend the functionality of the indicator:
- Horiz Buy/Sell 2x SLI lets you view 100 Buy/Sell Levels at the same time
- Vertical Max_Vol 3x SLI lets you increase the resolution to 300 levels
- you need at least 2 instances of the indicator attached to the same chart for SLI to work
1) Enable Horiz SLI:
- attach 2 indicator instances to the chart
- make sure all instances have the same min_level/max_level/range/spacing settings
- select volume type for each instance: you can have a buy/sell or buy/total or sell/total SLI. Make sure your buy volume instance is the last attached to be displayed on top of sell/total instances without overlapping.
- set buy_sell_sli_mode to true for indicator instances with volume_type = buy/sell, for type total this is optional.
- this basically tells the script to calculate % lengths based on total volume instead of individual buy/sell volumes and use ext offset for sell levels
- Sell Offset is calculated relative to Buy Offset to stack/extend sell after buy. Buy Offset = Zero - Buy Length. Sell Offset = Buy Offset - Sell Length = Zero - Buy Length - Sell Length
- there are no master/slave instances in this mode, all indicators are equal, poc/va levels are not affected and can work independently, i.e. one instance can show va levels, another - vwap.
2) Enable Vertical SLI:
- attach the first instance and evaluate the full range to roughly determine where is the highest max_vol/poc level i.e. 0..20000, poc is in the bottom half (third, middle etc) or
- add more instances and split the full vertical range between them, i.e. set min_level/max_level of each corresponding instance to 0..10000, 10000..20000 etc
- make sure all instances have the same range/spacing settings
- an instance with a subrange containing the poc level of the full range is now your master instance (bottom half). All other instances are slaves, their levels will be calculated based on the max_vol/poc of the master instance instead of local values
- set show_max_vol_sli to true for the master instance. for slave instances this is optional and can be used to check if master/slave max_vol values match and slave can read the master's value. This simply plots the max_vol value
- you can also attach all instances and set show_max_vol_sli to true in all of them - the instance with the largest max_vol should become the master
Auto/Manual Ext Max_Vol Modes:
- for auto vertical max_vol SLI mode set max_vol_sli_src in all slave instances to the max_vol of the master indicator: "VolumeProfileFree_MAX_RRB: Max Volume for Vertical SLI Mode". It can be tricky with 2+ instances
- in case auto SLI mode doesn't work - assign max_vol_sli_ext in all slave instances the max_vol value of the master indicator manually and repeat on each change
- manual override max_vol_sli_ext has higher priority than auto max_vol_sli_src when both values are assigned, when they are 0 and close respectively - SLI is disabled
- master/slave max_vol values must match on each bar at all times to maintain proper level scale, otherwise slave's levels will look larger than they should relative to the master's levels.
- Max_vol (red) is the last param in the long list of indicator outputs
- the only true max_vol/poc in this SLI mode is the master's max_vol/poc. All poc/va levels in slaves will be irrelevant and are disabled automatically. Slaves can only show VWAP levels.
- VA Levels of the master instance in this SLI mode are calculated based on the subrange, not the whole range and may be inaccurate. Cross check with the full range.
WARNING!
- auto mode max_vol_sli_src is experimental and may not work as expected
- you can only assign auto mode max_vol_sli_src = max_vol once due to some bug with unhandled exception/buffer overflow in Tradingview. Seems that you can clear the value only by removing the indicator instance
- sometimes you may see a "study in error state" error when attempting to set it back to close. Remove indicator/Reload chart and start from scratch
- volume profile may not finish to redraw and freeze in an ugly shape after an UI parameter change when max_vol_sli_src is assigned a max_vol value. Assign it to close - VP should redraw properly, but it may not clear the assigned max_vol value
- you can't seem to be able to assign a proper auto max_vol value to the 3rd slave instance
- 2x Vertical SLI works and tested in both auto/manual, 3x SLI - only manual seems to work (you can have a mixed mode: 2nd instance - auto, 3rd - manual)
Notes:
- This code uses Pinescript v3 compatibility framework
- This code is 20x-30x faster (main for cycle is removed) especially on lower tfs with long history - only 4-5 sec load/redraw time vs 30-60 sec of the old Pro versions
- Instead of repeatedly calculating the total sum of volumes for the whole range on each bar, vol sums are now increased on each bar and passed to the next in the range making it a per range vs per bar calculation that reduces time dramatically
- 100 levels consist of 50 main plot levels and 50 line objects used as alternate levels, differences are:
- line objects are always shown on top of other objects, such as plot levels, zero line and side cover, it's not possible to cover/move them below.
- all line objects have variable lengths, use actual x,y coords and don't need side cover, while all plot levels have a fixed length of 100 bars, use offset and require cover.
- all key properties of line objects, such as x,y coords, color can be modified, objects can be moved/deleted, while this is not possible for static plot levels.
- large width values cause line objects to expand only up/down from center while their length remains the same and stays within the level's start/end points similar to an area style.
- large width values make plot levels expand in all directions (both h/v), beyond level start/end points, sometimes overlapping zero line, making them an inaccurate % length representation, as opposed to line objects/plot levels with area style.
- large width values translate into different widths on screen for line objects and plot levels.
- you can't compensate for this unwanted horiz width expansion of plot levels because width uses its own units, that don't translate into bars/pixels.
- line objects are visible only when num_levels > 50, plot levels are used otherwise
- Since line objects are lines, plot levels also use style line because other style implementations will break the symmetry/spacing between levels.
- if you don't see a volume profile check range settings: min_level/max_level and spacing, set spacing to 0 (or adjust accordingly based on the symbol's precision, i.e. 0.00001)
- you can view either of Buy/Sell/Total volumes, but you can't display Buy/Sell levels at the same time using a single instance (this would 2x reduce the number of levels). Use 2 indicator instances in horiz buy/sell sli mode for that.
- Volume Profile/Value Area are calculated for a given range and updated on each bar. Each level has a fixed length. Offsets control visible level parts. Side Cover hides the invisible parts.
- Custom Color for POC/VA/VWAP levels - UI Style color/transparency can only change shape's color and doesn't affect textcolor, hence this additional option
- Custom Width - UI Style supports only width <= 4, hence this additional option
- POC is visible in both modes. In VWAP mode Developing POC becomes VWAP, VA High and Low => VWAP High and Low correspondingly to minimize the number of plot outputs
- You can't change buy/sell level colors from input (only transparency) - this requires 2x plot outputs => 2x reduces the number of levels to fit the max 64 limit. That's why 2 additional plots are used to dim the non Value Area zones
- You can change level transparency of line objects. Due to Pinescript limitations, only discrete values are supported.
- Inverse transp correlation creates the necessary illusion of "covered" line objects, although they are shown on top of the cover all the time
- If custom lines_transp is set the illusion will break because transp range can't be skewed easily (i.e. transp 0..100 is always mapped to 100..0 and can't be mapped to 50..0)
- transparency can applied to lines dynamically but nva top zone can't be completely removed because plot/mixed type of levels are still used when num_levels < 50 and require cover
- transparency can't be applied to plot levels dynamically from script this can be done only once from UI, and you can't change plot color for the past length bars
- All buy/sell volume lengths are calculated as % of a fixed base width = 100 bars (100%). You can't set show_last from input to change it
- Range selection/Anchoring is not accurate on charts with time gaps since you can only anchor from a point in the future and measure distance in time periods, not actual bars, and there's no way of knowing the number of future gaps in advance.
- Adjust Width for Log Scale mode now also works on high precision charts with small prices (i.e. 0.00001)
- in Adjust Width for Log Scale mode Level1 width extremes can be capped using max deviation (when level1 = 0, shift = 0 width becomes infinite)
- There's no such thing as buy/sell volume, there's just volume, but for the purposes of the Volume Profile method, assume: bull candle = buy volume, bear candle = sell volume

Volume Profile Free Pro (25 Levels Value Area VWAP) by RRBVolume Profile Free Pro by RagingRocketBull 2019
Version 1.0
All available Volume Profile Free Pro versions are listed below (They are very similar and I don't want to publish them as separate indicators):
ver 1.0: style columns implementation
ver 2.0: style histogram implementation
ver 3.0: style line implementation
This indicator calculates Volume Profile for a given range and shows it as a histogram consisting of 25 horizontal bars.
It can also show Point of Control (POC), Developing POC, Value Area/VWAP StdDev High/Low as dynamically moving levels.
Free accounts can't access Standard TradingView Volume Profile, hence this indicator.
There are 3 basic methods to calculate the Value Area for a session.
- original method developed by Steidlmayr (calculated around POC)
- classical method using StdDev (calculated around the mean VWAP)
- another method based on the mean absolute deviation (calculated around the median)
POC is a high volume node and can be used as support/resistance. But when far from the day's average price it may not be as good a trend filter as the other methods.
The 80% Rule: When the market opens above/below the Value Area and then returns/stays back inside for 2 consecutive 30min periods it has 80% chance of filling VA (like a gap).
There are several versions: Free, Free Pro, Free MAX. This is the Free Pro version. The Differences are listed below:
- Free: 30 levels, Buy/Sell/Total Volume Profile views, POC
- Free Pro: 25 levels, +Developing POC, Value Area/VWAP High/Low Levels, Above/Below Area Dimming
- Free MAX: 50 levels, packed to the limit
Features:
- Volume Profile with up to 25 levels (3 implementations)
- POC, Developing POC Levels
- Buy/Sell/Total/Side by Side View modes
- Side Cover
- Value Area, VAH/VAL dynamic levels
- VWAP High/Low dynamic levels with Source, Length, StdDev as params
- Show/Hide all levels
- Dim Non Value Area Zones
- Custom Range with Highlighting
- 3 Anchor points for Volume Profile
- Flip Levels Horizontally
- Adjustable width, offset and spacing of levels
- Custom Color for POC/VA/VWAP levels and Transparency for buy/sell levels
Usage:
- specify max_level/min_level for a range (required in ver 1.0/2.0, auto/optional in ver 3.0 = set to highest/lowest)
- select range (start_bar, range length), confirm with range highlighting
- select mode Value Area or VWAP to show corresponding levels.
- flip/select anchor point to position the buy/sell levels, adjust width and spacing as needed
- select Buy/Sell/Total/Side by Side view mode
- use POC/Developing POC/VA/VWAP High/Low as S/R levels. Usually daily values from 1-3 days back are used as levels for the current day.
- Green - buy volume of a specific price level in a range, Red - sell volume. Green + Red = Total volume of a price level in a range
There's no native support for vertical histograms in Pinescript (with price axis as base)
Basically, there are 4 ways to plot a series of horizontal bars stacked on top of each other:
1. plotshape style labeldown (ver 0 prototype discarded)
- you can have a set of fixed width/height text labels consisting of a series of underscores and moving dynamically as levels. Level offset controls visible length.
- you can move levels and scale the base width of the volume profile histogram dynamically
- you can calculate the highest/lowest range values automatically. max_level/min_level inputs are optional
- you can't fill the gaps between levels/adjust/extend width, height - this results in a half baked volume profile and looks ugly
- fixed text level height doesn't adjust and looks bad on a log scale
- fixed font width also doesn't scale and can't be properly aligned with bars when zooming
2. plot style columns + hist_base (ver 1.0)
- you can plot long horizontal bars using a series of small adjacent vertical columns with level offsets controlling visible length.
- you can't hide/move levels of the volume profile histogram dynamically on each bar, they must be plotted at all times regardless - you can't delete the history of a plot.
- you can't scale the base width of the volume profile histogram dynamically, can't set show_last from input, must use a preset fixed width for each level
- hist_base can only be a static const expression, can't be assigned highest/lowest range values automatically - you have to specify max_level/min_level manually from input
- you can't control spacing between columns - there's an equalizer bar effect when you zoom in, and solid bars when you zoom out
- using hist_base for levels results in ugly load/redraw times - give it 3-5 sec to finalize its shape after each UI param change
- level top can be properly aligned with another level's bottom producing a clean good looking histogram
- columns are properly aligned with bars automatically
3. plot style histogram + hist_base (ver 2.0)
- you can plot long horizontal bars using a series of small vertical bars (horizontal histogram) instead of columns.
- you can control the width of each histogram bar comprising a level (spacing/horiz density). Large enough width will cause bar overlapping and give level a "solid" look regardless of zoom
- you can only set width <= 4 in UI Style - custom textbox input is provided for larger values. You can set width and plot transparency from input
- this method still uses hist_base and inherits other limitations of ver 2.0
4. plot style lines (ver 3.0)
- you can also plot long horizontal bars using lines with level offsets controlling visible length.
- lines don't need hist_base - fast and smooth redraw times
- you can calculate the highest/lowest range values automatically. max_level/min_level inputs are optional
- level top can't be properly aligned with another level's bottom and have a proper spacing because line width uses its own units and doesn't scale
- fixed line width of a level (vertical thickness) doesn't scale and looks bad on log (level overlapping)
- you can only set width <= 4 in UI Style, a custom textbox input is provided for larger values. You can set width and plot transparency from input
Notes:
- hist_base for levels results in ugly load/redraw times - give it 3-5 sec to finalize its shape after each UI param change
- indicator is slow on TFs with long history 10000+ bars
- Volume Profile/Value Area are calculated for a given range and updated on each bar. Each level has a fixed width. Offsets control visible level parts. Side Cover hides the invisible parts.
- Custom Color for POC/VA/VWAP levels - UI Style color/transparency can only change shape's color and doesn't affect textcolor, hence this additional option
- Custom Widh for levels - UI Style supports only width <= 4, hence this additional option
- POC is visible in both modes. In VWAP mode Developing POC becomes VWAP, VA High and Low => VWAP High and Low correspondingly to minimize the number of plot outputs
- You can't change buy/sell level colors (only plot transparency) - this requires 2x plot outputs exceeding max 64 limit. That's why 2 additional plots are used to dim the non Value Area zones
- Use Side by Side view to compare buy and sell volumes between each other: base width = max(total_buy_vol, total_sell_vol)
- All buy/sell volume lengths are calculated as % of a fixed base width = 100 bars (100%). You can't set show_last from input
- Sell Offset is calculated relative to Buy Offset to stack/extend sell on top of buy. Buy Offset = Zero - Buy Length. Sell Offset = Buy Offset - Sell Length = Zero - Buy Length - Sell Length
- If you see "loop too long error" - change some values in UI and it will recalculate - no need to refresh the chart
- There's no such thing as buy/sell volume, there's just volume, but for the purposes of the Volume Profile method, assume: bull candle = buy volume, bear candle = sell volume
- Volume Profile Range is limited to 5000 bars for free accounts

PPSRMA -COMPILATION OF 2 GREAT SCRIPTS AND DOUBLE MAFirst of all I just did the compilation so this is not my idea, it is just a miscellany.
This script has been compiled for authors who have just been introduced to scripts : for unloading and leaving room for other indicators especially:non-pro users needs space for indicators and users seeking best technical combination. This script says thousands of comments.
It's the best combination I've ever try and see everything about future. All efforts belongs to ChrisMoody.

PivotBoss Outside Reversal SetupPATTERN SUMMARY
1. The engulfing bar of a bullish outside reversal setup has a low that is below the prior bar's low (L < L ) and a
close that is above the prior bar's high (C > H ).
2. The engulfing bar of a bearish outside reversal setup has a high that is above the prior bar's high (H > H )
and a close that is below the prior bar's low (C < L ).
3. The engulfing bar is usually 5 to 25 percent larger than the size of the average bar in the lookback period.
PATTERN PSYCHOLOGY
The power behind this pattern lies in the psychology behind the traders involved in this setup. If you have
ever participated in a breakout at support or resistance only to have the market reverse sharply against you, then
you are familiar with the market dynamics of this setup. What exactly is going on at these levels? To understand
this concept is to understand the outside reversal pattern. Basically, market participants are testing the waters
above resistance or below support to make sure there is no new business to be done at these levels. When no
initiative buyers or sellers participate in range extension, responsive participants have all the information they
need to reverse price back toward a new area of perceived value.
As you look at a bullish outside reversal pattern, you will notice that the current bar's low is lower than the
prior bar's low. Essentially, the market is testing the waters below recently established lows to see if a downside
follow-through will occur. When no additional selling pressure enters the market, the result is a flood of buying
pressure that causes a springboard effect, thereby shooting price above the prior bar's highs and creating the
beginning of a bullish advance.
If you recall the child on the trampoline for a moment, you'll realize that the child had to force the bounce
mat down before he could spring into the air. Also, remember Jennifer the cake baker? She initially pushed price
to $20 per cake, which sent a flood of orders into her shop. The flood of buying pressure eventually sent the price
of her cakes to $35 apiece. Basically, price had to test the $20 level before it could rise to $35.
Let's analyze the outside reversal setup in a different light for a moment. One of the reasons I like this setup
is because the two-bar pattern reduces into the wick reversal setup, which we covered earlier in the chapter. If
you are not familiar with candlestick reduction, the idea is simple. You are taking the price data over two or more
candlesticks and combining them to create a single candlestick. Therefore, you will be taking the open, high, low,
and close prices of the bars in question to create a single composite candlestick.
Take a look at Figure 2.13, which illustrates the candlestick reduction of the outside reversal setup.
Essentially, taking the highest high and the lowest low over the two-bar period gives you the range of the
composite candlestick. Then, taking the opening price of the first candle and the closing price of the last candle
will finish off the composite candlestick. Depending on the structure of the bars of the outside reversal setup, the
result of the candlestick reduction will usually be the transformation into a wick reversal setup, which we know to
be quite powerful. Therefore, in many cases the physiology of the outside reversal pattern basically demonstrates
the inherent psychological traits of the wick reversal pattern. This is just another level of analysis that reinforces
my belief in the outside reversal setup.

Pure Price Zone Flow🔎 What this indicator is
It’s a price-action-based zone indicator. Unlike moving average systems, this one relies only on:
1. Swing Highs & Swing Lows → The highest and lowest points within a recent lookback period (like "mini support & resistance").
2. ATR (Average True Range) → A volatility measure that expands the zone, making it more adaptive to different market conditions.
3. Breakouts & Retests → When price breaks above a swing high (bullish) or below a swing low (bearish), the indicator marks it and highlights the new trend.
👉 The goal is to spot clean structure shifts and define clear trend zones where traders can position themselves.
________________________________________
⚙️ How it is calculated
1. Swing High & Swing Low
o We look back len candles (default 20).
o Find the highest high (swingHigh) and the lowest low (swingLow) in that window.
o This forms the price range zone.
2. ATR Expansion
o We calculate ATR over the same len.
o Add/subtract it (multiplied by atrMult) to the zone edges to expand them.
o This ensures the zones breathe with volatility (tight in quiet markets, wide in choppy ones).
3. Mid-Zone
o Simply the average of swingHigh and swingLow.
o If price is above mid → bullish bias.
o If below mid → bearish bias.
o This gives us the trend color for candles.
4. Breakouts
o If the close crosses above swingHigh, we mark a bullish breakout with a label.
o If the close crosses below swingLow, we mark a bearish breakdown.
________________________________________
📊 How it helps traders
This indicator helps by:
1. Identifying Structure Shifts
o Many traders watch swing highs/lows for breakouts or reversals.
o This automates the process and visually confirms when structure is broken.
2. Dynamic Zone Trading
o Instead of fixed support/resistance, the ATR expansion adapts to volatility.
o This avoids false signals in high-volatility conditions.
3. Trend Bias at a Glance
o Candle coloring instantly tells you whether price is in bullish or bearish territory relative to the mid-zone.
4. Breakout Confirmation
o The labels show when a breakout has occurred, so traders can react quickly (e.g., enter with trend, wait for retest, or avoid fading moves).
________________________________________
🌍 Markets it works best in
• Crypto (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.): Very effective since crypto is breakout-driven and respects swing levels.
• Forex: Good for volatility-adaptive structure analysis, especially in trending pairs.
• Indices (SPX, NASDAQ, DAX, NIFTY): Useful for breakout trading during session opens or key news events.
• Commodities (Gold, Oil, Silver): Works well to define intraday ranges and breakout levels.
⚠️ Less useful in low-volatility, mean-reverting assets (like some penny stocks or sideways ranges), because breakouts may be rare or fake.
________________________________________
💡 How it adds value
• Strips away unnecessary complexity (no lagging averages).
• Focuses directly on what price is doing structurally.
• Adaptive → works across different markets & timeframes.
• Easy visualization → zones, trend coloring, breakout markers.
• Helps traders trade with the flow of the market, instead of guessing tops/bottoms.
________________________________________
👉 In short:
This indicator turns raw price action into clear, actionable zones.
It highlights when the market shifts from balance to breakout, so traders can align with momentum rather than fighting it.

Multi-Band Trend LineThis Pine Script creates a versatile technical indicator called "Multi-Band Trend Line" that builds upon the concept of the popular "Follow Line Indicator" by Dreadblitz. While the original Follow Line Indicator uses simple trend detection to place a line at High or Low levels, this enhanced version combines multiple band-based trading strategies with dynamic trend line generation. The indicator supports five different band types and provides more sophisticated buy/sell signals based on price breakouts from various technical analysis bands.
Key Features
Multi-Band Support
The indicator supports five different band types:
- Bollinger Bands: Uses standard deviation to create bands around a moving average
- Keltner Channels: Uses ATR (Average True Range) to create bands around a moving average
- Donchian Channels: Uses the highest high and lowest low over a specified period
- Moving Average Envelopes: Creates bands as a percentage above and below a moving average
- ATR Bands: Uses ATR multiplier to create bands around a moving average
Dynamic Trend Line Generation (Enhanced Follow Line Concept)
- Similar to the Follow Line Indicator, the trend line is placed at High or Low levels based on trend direction
- Key Enhancement: Instead of simple trend detection, this version uses band breakouts to trigger trend changes
- When price breaks above the upper band (bullish signal), the trend line is set to the low (optionally adjusted with ATR) - similar to Follow Line's low placement
- When price breaks below the lower band (bearish signal), the trend line is set to the high (optionally adjusted with ATR) - similar to Follow Line's high placement
- The trend line acts as dynamic support/resistance, following the price action more precisely than the original Follow Line
ATR Filter (Follow Line Enhancement)
- Like the original Follow Line Indicator, an ATR filter can be selected to place the line at a more distance level than the normal mode settled at candles Highs/Lows
- When enabled, it adds/subtracts ATR value to provide more conservative trend line placement
- Helps reduce false signals in volatile markets
- This feature maintains the core philosophy of the Follow Line while adding more precision through band-based triggers
Signal Generation
- Buy Signal: Generated when trend changes from bearish to bullish (trend line starts rising)
- Sell Signal: Generated when trend changes from bullish to bearish (trend line starts falling)
- Signals are displayed as labels on the chart
Visual Elements
- Upper and lower bands are plotted in gray
- Trend line changes color based on direction (green for bullish, red for bearish)
- Background color changes based on trend direction
- Buy/sell signals are marked with labeled shapes
How It Works
Band Calculation: Based on the selected band type, upper and lower boundaries are calculated
Signal Detection: When price closes above the upper band or below the lower band, a breakout signal is generated
Trend Line Update: The trend line is updated based on the breakout direction and previous trend line value
Trend Direction: Determined by comparing current trend line with the previous value
Alert Generation: Buy/sell conditions trigger alerts and visual signals
Use Cases
Enhanced trend following strategies: More precise than basic Follow Line due to band-based triggers
Breakout trading: Multiple band types provide various breakout opportunities
Dynamic support/resistance identification: Combines Follow Line concept with band analysis
Multi-timeframe analysis with different band types: Choose the most suitable band for your timeframe
Reduced false signals: Band confirmation provides better entry/exit points compared to simple trend following
ORB & Sessions [Capitalize Labs]ORB & Sessions Indicator
The ORB & Sessions Indicator provides a structured way to analyze intraday price action by combining two well-established concepts: global trading sessions and Opening Range Breakouts (ORB). It is designed to help traders identify where liquidity forms, when volatility expands, and how price behaves around key session and range levels.
Market Sessions Framework
Displays New York, London, and Asian sessions directly on the chart.
Each session can be shown as a highlighted background zone, or with extended highs and lows for liquidity tracking.
Session highs and lows remain projected forward after the session ends, allowing traders to monitor sweeps, retests, and reactions throughout the day.
Session times are fully customizable and can be aligned with the trader’s own timezone or broker feed.
This structure helps traders place price action into context, whether during quiet Asian trading, London-driven volatility, or New York reversals.
Opening Range Breakouts (ORB)
Supports three independent ORBs, each with configurable session times.
During the defined ORB window, the indicator captures the high and low of the range and plots a live updating box.
Once the ORB closes, the range locks and projects breakout targets (T1 and T2) based on user-defined risk-to-reward multiples.
Alerts are included for breakouts of highs, lows, or target levels.
Traders can use a single ORB or multiple—for example, tracking an Asian ORB into London, or London into New York.
Visualization and Clarity
Color-coded boxes and levels for sessions and ORBs.
Labels such as “Range High” and “Range Low” ensure clarity without clutter.
Flexible display settings allow highlighting full zones, just lines, or minimal markers depending on preference.
Practical Applications
This indicator is useful for:
Liquidity and volatility analysis: Observe where session highs and lows form and how they influence later trading.
Breakout and reversal strategies: Use ORB ranges to define risk and plan target projections.
Time-based research: Explore how different session overlaps or ORBs affect markets like indices, FX, and commodities.
Risk planning: Built-in R-multiple targets provide a consistent framework for evaluating setups.
Why It’s Different
Instead of showing sessions and ORBs separately, this indicator integrates them into one framework. Traders can:
See when and where sessions open and establish range levels.
Define precise ORBs with customizable timing.
Track breakout levels and targets in real time with alerts.
The result is a clear, time-structured view of the trading day, helping traders align setups with session dynamics and opening range behavior.
This indicator does not generate buy or sell signals. It is an analytical and visualization tool, providing structure for traders to better interpret intraday price action.
Trishul Tap Signals (v6) — Liquidity Sweep + Imbalanced RetestTrishul Tap Signals — Liquidity Sweep + Imbalanced Retest
Type: Signal-only indicator (non-repainting)
Style: Price-action + Liquidity + Trend-following
Best for: Intraday & Swing Trading — any liquid market (stocks, futures, crypto, FX)
Timeframes: Any (5m–1D recommended)
Concept
The Trishul Tap setup is a liquidity-driven retest play inspired by order-flow and Smart Money Concepts.
It identifies one-sided impulse candles that also sweep liquidity (grab stops above/below a recent swing), then waits for price to retest the origin of that candle to enter in the trend direction.
Think of it as the three points of a trident:
Trend filter — Only signals with the prevailing trend.
Liquidity sweep — Candle takes out a recent swing high/low (stop-hunt).
Imbalanced retest — Price taps the candle’s open/low (bull) or open/high (bear).
Bullish Setup
Trend Filter: Price above EMA(200).
Impulse Candle:
Green close.
Upper wick ≥ (wickRatio × lower wick).
Lower wick ≤ (oppWickMaxFrac × full range).
Liquidity Sweep: Candle’s high exceeds the highest high of the last sweepLookback bars (excluding current).
Tap Entry: Buy signal triggers when price later taps the candle’s low or open (user choice) within expireBars.
Bearish Setup
Trend Filter: Price below EMA(200).
Impulse Candle:
Red close.
Lower wick ≥ (wickRatio × upper wick).
Upper wick ≤ (oppWickMaxFrac × full range).
Liquidity Sweep: Candle’s low breaks the lowest low of the last sweepLookback bars (excluding current).
Tap Entry: Sell signal triggers when price later taps the candle’s high or open (user choice) within expireBars.
Inputs
Trend EMA Length: Default 200.
Sweep Lookback: Number of bars for liquidity sweep check (default 20).
Wick Ratio: Required size ratio of dominant wick to opposite wick (default 2.0).
Opposite Wick Max %: Opposite wick must be ≤ this fraction of the candle’s range (default 25%).
Tap Tolerance (ticks): How close price must come to the level to count as a tap.
Expire Bars: Max bars after setup to allow a valid tap.
One Signal per Level: If ON, a base is “consumed” after first signal.
Plot Tap Levels: Show horizontal lines for active bases.
Show Setup Labels: Mark the origin sweep candle.
Plots & Visuals
EMA Trend Line — trend filter reference.
Tap Levels —
Green = bullish base (origin candle’s low/open).
Red = bearish base (origin candle’s high/open).
Labels — Show where the setup candle formed.
Signals —
BUY: triangle-up below bar at bullish tap.
SELL: triangle-down above bar at bearish tap.

Two built-in conditions:
BUY Signal (Trishul Tap) — triggers on bullish tap.
SELL Signal (Trishul Tap) — triggers on bearish tap.
Set via Alerts panel → Condition = this indicator → Choose signal type.
How to Trade It
Use in liquid markets with clean price structure.
Confirm with HTF structure, volume spikes, or other confluence if desired.
Place stop just beyond the tap level (or ATR-based).
Target 1–2R or trail behind structure.
Why It Works
Liquidity sweep traps traders entering late (breakout buyers or panic sellers) and forces them to exit in the opposite direction, fueling your entry.
Wick imbalance confirms directional aggression by one side.
Trend filter keeps you aligned with the market’s dominant flow.
Retest entry lets you enter at a better price with reduced risk.
Non-Repainting
Setups form only on confirmed bar closes.
Signals trigger only on later bars that tap the stored level.
No lookahead functions are used.

Engulfing Pattern[SpeculationLab]Overview
This script detects two types of engulfing / outer bar patterns and marks them directly on the chart:
Body Engulfing – The current candle’s body range (open–close) completely covers the entire range (high–low) of the previous candle.
Range Engulfing – The current candle’s full range (high–low, including wicks) completely covers the entire range (high–low) of the previous candle.
Direction logic:
Bull – The previous candle is bearish and the selected engulfing rule is met.
Bear – The previous candle is bullish and the selected engulfing rule is met.
Optional: Require the current candle to have the opposite color of the previous one.
This is an open-source pattern recognition tool for learning, backtesting, and chart review. It is not financial advice.
Key Features
Two detection modes:
body – Body engulfs previous entire range
range – Wicks engulf previous entire range
Direction detection based on the previous candle’s color, with optional opposite-color confirmation
Chart markers: “BULL” /“BEAR” above bars
Alert-ready: built-in conditions for bullish and bearish engulfing patterns
Parameters
Engulfing Type: body / range
body: Current body must fully cover the previous candle’s high–low range
range: Current full range (high–low) must fully cover the previous candle’s high–low range
Require Opposite Previous Candle (default: off):
When enabled, the engulfing pattern must also have the opposite color from the previous candle to trigger
Usage Tips
Engulfing patterns are price action structures; combine with trend, key levels, and volume for context
Signals confirm on bar close (barstate.isconfirmed) to reduce repainting
Can be used with personal risk management rules (stop-loss, take-profit, filters)

Prev D/W/M + Asia & London Levels [Oeditrades]Prev D/W/M + Asia & London Levels
Author: Oeditrades
Platform: Pine Script® v6
What it does
Plots only the most recent, fully completed:
Previous Day / Week / Month highs & lows
Asia and London session highs & lows
Levels are drawn as true horizontal lines from the period/session start and extended to the right for easy confluence reading. The script is non-repainting.
How it works
Prev Day/Week/Month: Uses completed HTF candles (high / low ) so values are fixed for the entire next period.
Sessions (NY time): Asia (default 20:00–03:00) and London (default 03:00–08:00) are tracked in America/New_York time. High/low are locked when the session ends, and the line is anchored at that session’s start.
Inputs & customization
Visibility: toggle Previous Day/Week/Month, Asia, London, and labels.
Colors: highs default red; lows default green (user-configurable). Session highs default pink, lows aqua (also editable).
Style: line style (solid/dotted/dashed) and width.
Sessions: editable time windows for Asia and London (still interpreted in New York time).
Disclaimer: optional on-chart disclaimer panel with editable text.
Notes
Works on any timeframe. For intraday charts, the HTF values remain constant until the next HTF bar completes.
If your market’s overnight hours differ, simply adjust the session windows in Inputs.
Lines intentionally show only the latest completed period/session to keep charts clean.
Use cases
Quick view of PDH/PDL, PWH/PWL, PMH/PML for bias and liquidity.
Intraday planning around Asia/London range breaks, retests, and overlaps with prior levels.

Key Session LevelsKey Session Levels - Indicator Guide
Created by: MecarderoAurum
Why This Indicator Exists: An Overview
The "Key Session Levels" indicator is a comprehensive tool for day traders that automatically plots the most critical price levels from the current premarket and the previous two full trading days. These levels are watched by countless traders and often act as significant areas of support and resistance.
This indicator provides a clear, objective map of these key zones, helping traders anticipate potential turning points, identify areas of confluence, and make more informed trading decisions without having to manually draw and manage these lines every day.
Features & How to Use Them
This indicator plots several types of important historical levels on your chart. Each one is fully customizable.
1. Premarket Levels (PMH / PML)
What they are: The highest (PMH) and lowest (PML) prices reached during the current day's premarket session (04:00 - 09:30 ET).
Why they matter: The premarket high and low are the first significant levels established for the trading day. They often act as initial support or resistance once the market opens.
How to use them: In the settings under "Premarket Levels," you can toggle the visibility of the PMH and PML, and customize their color, line style, and width.
2. Prior Day Levels (PDH / PDL / PDM / PDP)
What they are: The key price points from the previous full trading day.
PDH: Prior Day High
PDL: Prior Day Low
PDM: Prior Day Midpoint (the exact middle of the PDH and PDL)
PDP: Prior Day Pivot (a classic pivot point calculation)
Why they matter: These are often the most important levels for the current trading day. The market frequently tests the previous day's high and low.
How to use them: Under the "Prior Day" settings, you can enable or disable each of these four levels and customize their appearance.
3. 2-Day Prior Levels (PDH2 / PDL2 / etc.)
What they are: The same set of key levels (High, Low, Mid, Pivot) from two trading days ago.
Why they matter: These levels can still be highly relevant, especially if the market is trading within a multi-day range or returning to test a significant prior level.
How to use them: Under the "2-Day Prior" settings, you can customize the visibility and style of these levels. They are styled with more transparency by default to distinguish them from the more recent prior day's levels.
4. General Settings
Days of History: This setting allows you to control how many past days of historical lines are kept on your chart. This is excellent for back-testing strategies and seeing how price has reacted to these levels in the past.
Label Settings: You can customize the color and size of the on-chart labels (e.g., "PDH," "PML") for better visibility.
Sample Strategy: The Key Level Rejection
This strategy focuses on using the indicator's levels to identify potential reversals at key areas of support or resistance.
Identify a Key Level: Watch as the price approaches a significant level plotted by the indicator, such as the Prior Day High (PDH) or the Premarket Low (PML).
Look for Rejection: Do not trade simply because the price touches the level. Wait for a price action signal that confirms the level is holding. This could be a bearish engulfing candle or a shooting star pattern at a resistance level like PDH, or a bullish hammer or morning star pattern at a support level like PML.
Entry: Once you see a clear rejection candle, enter a trade in the direction of the rejection. For a bearish rejection at the PDH, you would enter a short position.
Stop-Loss: A logical place for a stop-loss is just above the high of the rejection candle (for a short trade) or just below the low of the rejection candle (for a long trade). This defines your risk clearly.
Profit Target: Your first profit target could be the next key level plotted by the indicator. For example, if you shorted a rejection at the PDH, your first target might be the Premarket High (PMH) or the day's opening price.
Pre-Market High and LowThis Pine Script indicator automatically plots the pre-market high and low price levels for each trading day, helping traders identify key support and resistance zones based on pre-market activity. Designed for stocks and other assets with pre-market sessions, it draws horizontal lines at the pre-market high and low prices at the regular market open (9:30 AM EST) and resets automatically at the start of each new trading day.
Features:
Automatic Daily Reset: Tracks pre-market highs and lows without requiring manual date changes.
Customizable Timeframe: Set your preferred pre-market session (default: 4:00 AM to 9:30 AM EST).
Flexible Styling: Choose line styles (Solid, Dashed, Dotted) and colors for high/low lines.
Adjustable Panel Size: Control how far the lines extend across the chart (default: 50 bars).
Optional Labels: Toggle labels to display "Pre-Market High" and "Pre-Market Low" at the market open.
Overlay Display: Lines and labels are plotted directly on the price chart for easy reference.
DTA Seven-Candle Trend IndicatorSeven candles Trend Identifier
📊 Output:
* Trend shown in table: "Uptrend", "Downtrend", or "Sideways"
* Strength level:
* "Strong" = 10+ confirmations (HH/HL or LL/LH)
* "Moderate" = 6–9 confirmations
* "Weak" = anything else (Sideways)
* All colors sync with background and label styles
The yellow background color in the script indicates a sideways trend — meaning:
🟨 Yellow Background = Sideways Market
This occurs when:
* The last 7 candles do not form a clear uptrend (higher highs & higher lows)
* And also do not form a clear downtrend (lower highs & lower lows)
🔍 Why It Happens:
* Mixed candle structure
* Price is oscillating in a range
* No dominant directional momentum
* Often seen before breakouts or during consolidation
✅ Example:
Imagine the last 7 candles had highs and lows like this:
Bar High Low
1 100 95
2 98 94
3 101 96
4 100 95
5 99 93
6 102 97
7 100 95
In this case:
* Not consistently making higher highs/lows (so not uptrend)
* Not consistently making lower highs/lows (so not downtrend)
➡️ Therefore, the script marks it as sideways, and the background turns yellow.
HTF Candle Extremes Zigzag (Drawn on LTF)HTF Candle Extremes Zigzag (Drawn on LTF)
This indicator plots zigzag lines connecting the extremes (highs and lows) of Higher Timeframe (HTF) candles directly on your lower timeframe (LTF) chart. It visually highlights trend changes and HTF candle structure by drawing colored lines representing uptrends and downtrends based on HTF candle extremes.
"Key Features"
Higher Timeframe Tracking: Select any HTF to track candle extremes using the built-in security function.
Zigzag Lines: Connects HTF candle lows to highs in an intuitive zigzag pattern.
Trend Indication: Uptrend lines are green, downtrend lines are red (customizable colors).
Customizable Line Width: Adjust the thickness of the zigzag lines for better visibility.
Drawn on Lower Timeframe: All lines appear on your active lower timeframe chart, allowing easy visual correlation.
"How It Works"
The script fetches the open, high, low, close, and time data of the specified HTF candle. It detects new HTF bars and identifies trend direction changes by comparing the highs and lows of consecutive HTF candles.
- When an uptrend is detected, vertical lines are drawn from low to high of the HTF candle, connected to the previous extreme low.
- When a downtrend is detected, vertical lines are drawn from high to low, connected to the previous extreme high.
- Transitions between trends are highlighted by connecting the last extreme of the previous trend to the current extreme, creating a clean zigzag pattern.
Usage Notes:
Ideal for traders who want to visualize HTF market structure and trend changes while analyzing price action on lower timeframes.

All SMAs Bullish/Bearish Screener (Enhanced)All SMAs Bullish/Bearish Screener Enhanced: Uncover High-Conviction Trend Alignments with Confidence
Description:
Are you ready to elevate your trading from mere guesswork to precise, data-driven decisions? The "All SMAs Bullish/Bearish Screener Enhanced" is not just another indicator; it's a sophisticated, yet user-friendly, trend-following powerhouse designed to cut through market noise and pinpoint high-probability trading opportunities. Built on the foundational strength of comprehensive Moving Average confluence and fortified with critical confirmation signals from Momentum, Volume, and Relative Strength, this script empowers you to identify truly robust trends and manage your trades with unparalleled clarity.
The Power of Multi-Factor Confluence: Beyond Simple Averages
In the unpredictable world of financial markets, true strength or weakness is rarely an isolated event. It's the harmonious alignment of multiple technical factors that signals a high-conviction move. While our original "All SMAs Bullish/Bearish Screener" intelligently identified stocks where price was consistently above or below a full spectrum of Simple Moving Averages (5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200), this Enhanced version takes it a crucial step further.
We've integrated a powerful three-pronged confirmation system to filter out weaker signals and highlight only the most compelling setups:
Momentum (Rate of Change - ROC): A strong trend isn't just about price direction; it's about the speed and intensity of that movement. Positive momentum confirms that buyers are still aggressively pushing price higher (for bullish signals), while negative momentum validates selling pressure (for bearish signals).
Volume: No trend is truly trustworthy without the backing of smart money. Above-average volume accompanying an "All SMAs" alignment signifies strong institutional participation and conviction behind the move. It separates genuine trend starts from speculative whims.
Relative Strength Index (RSI): This versatile oscillator ensures the trend isn't just "there," but that it's developing healthily. We use RSI to confirm a bullish bias (above 50) or a bearish bias (below 50), adding another layer of confidence to the direction.
When the price aligns above ALL six critical SMAs, and is simultaneously confirmed by robust positive momentum, healthy volume, and a bullish RSI bias, you have an exceptionally strong "STRONGLY BULLISH" signal. This confluence often precedes sustained upward moves, signaling prime accumulation phases. Conversely, a "STRONGLY BEARISH" signal, where price is below ALL SMAs with negative momentum, confirming volume, and a bearish RSI bias, indicates powerful distribution and potential for significant downside.
How to Use This Enhanced Screener:
Add to Chart: Go to TradingView's Pine Editor, paste the script, and click "Add to Chart."
Customize Parameters: Fine-tune the lengths of your SMAs, RSI, Momentum, and Volume averages via the indicator's settings. Experiment to find what best suits your trading style and the assets you trade.
Choose Your Timeframe Wisely:
Daily (1D) and 4-Hour (240 min) are highly recommended. These timeframes cut through intraday noise and provide more reliable, actionable signals for swing and position trading.
Shorter timeframes (e.g., 15min, 60min) can be used by advanced day traders for very short-term entries, but be aware of increased volatility and noise.
Visual Confirmation:
Green/Red Triangles: Appear on your chart, indicating confirmed bullish or bearish signals.
Background Color: The chart background will subtly turn lime green for "STRONGLY BULLISH" and red for "STRONGLY BEARISH" conditions.
On-Chart Status Table: A clear table displays the current signal status ("STRONGLY BULLISH/BEARISH," or "SMAs Mixed") for immediate feedback.
Set Up Alerts (Your Primary Screener Tool): This is the game-changer! Create custom alerts on TradingView based on the "Confirmed Bullish Trade" and "Confirmed Bearish Trade" conditions. Receive instant notifications (email, pop-up, mobile) for any stock in your watchlist that meets these stringent criteria. This allows you to scan the entire market effortlessly and act decisively.
Strategic Stop-Loss Placement: The Trader's Lifeline
Even the most robust signals can fail. Protecting your capital is paramount. For this trend-following strategy, your stop-loss should be placed where the underlying trend structure is broken.
For a "STRONGLY BULLISH" Trade: Place your stop-loss just below the most recent significant swing low (higher low). This is the last point where buyers stepped in to support the price. If price breaks below this, your bullish thesis is invalidated.
For a "STRONGLY BEARISH" Trade: Place your stop-loss just above the most recent significant swing high (lower high). If price breaks above this, your bearish thesis is invalidated.
Alternatively, consider placing your stop-loss just below the 20-period SMA (for bullish trades) or above the 20-period SMA (for bearish trades). A significant close beyond this intermediate-term average often indicates a critical shift in momentum. Always ensure your chosen stop-loss adheres to your pre-defined risk per trade (e.g., 1-2% of capital).
Disciplined Profit Booking: Maximizing Gains
Just as important as knowing when you're wrong is knowing when to take profits.
Trailing Stop-Loss: As your trade moves into profit, trail your stop-loss upwards (for longs) or downwards (for shorts). You can trail it using:
Previous Swing Lows/Highs: Move your stop to just below each new higher low (for longs) or just above each new lower high (for shorts).
A Moving Average (e.g., 10-period or 20-period SMA): If price closes below your chosen trailing SMA, exit. This allows you to ride the trend while protecting accumulated profits.
Target Levels: Identify potential resistance levels (for longs) or support levels (for shorts) using pivot points, previous highs/lows, or Fibonacci extensions. Consider taking partial profits at these levels and letting the rest run with a trailing stop.
Loss of Confluence: If the "STRONGLY BULLISH/BEARISH" condition ceases to be met (e.g., RSI crosses below 50, or volume drops significantly), this can be a signal to reduce or exit your position, even if your stop-loss hasn't been hit.
The "All SMAs Bullish/Bearish Screener Enhanced" is your comprehensive partner in navigating the markets. By combining robust trend identification with critical confirmation signals and disciplined risk management, you're equipped to make smarter, more confident trading decisions. Add it to your favorites and unlock a new level of precision in your trading journey!
