MTF Commodity Oddity Index (CCI+)MTF Commodity Oddity Index (CCI+)
This chart overlay indicator is based upon the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) and can signal multiple triple-timeframe CCI overbought and oversold confluences directly onto your chart, intended for use as a confluence either for reversal trade entries, or potential trade exits, indicating where price may be probable to reverse.
Features include:
- Primary set of fully configurable triple-timeframe overbought and oversold signals, indicating where 3 selected timeframes are all overbought or all oversold at the same time. Enabled by default.
- Secondary set of fully configurable triple-timeframe overbought and oversold signals, indicating where 3 selected timeframes are all overbought or all oversold at the same time. Enabled by default.
- Optional drawing of background colours and/or ribbon seen at bottom of the chart image.
- The default primary MTF #1 timeframes are set to 1 minute, 5 minute and 15 minute. These are highly suitable for low timeframe scalpers trading on < 5m charts, and can often pin point price reversals.
- The default Secondary MTF #2 timeframes are set to 15 minute, 30 minute and 120 minute. These are suitable for both low timeframe scalpers and considerably higher timeframe traders.
- Independent alerts for MTF #1 and MTF #2 triple-timeframe confluences, including options for alerting MTF overbought and MTF oversold individually, as well as an option for alerting either overbought or oversold in a single combined alert.
- Also includes standard configurable CCI options, including CC length and source type.
Note: The features listed above are accurate at the time of publishing but maybe updated or added to in future.
A similar MTF CCI indicator is also available as a panel indicator here .
This indicator is based upon the original MTF Fantastic Stochastic (FS+) available here .
What is the Commodity Channel Index (CCI)?
Investopedia has described the popular oscillator as follows:
“The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is a momentum-based oscillator used to help determine when an investment vehicle is reaching a condition of being overbought or oversold.
Developed by Donald Lambert, this technical indicator assesses price trend direction and strength, allowing traders to determine if they want to enter or exit a trade, refrain from taking a trade, or add to an existing position. In this way, the indicator can be used to provide trade signals when it acts in a certain way.”
You can read more about the CCI , its use cases and calculations here .
How do traders use overbought and oversold levels in their trading?
The oversold level, that is traditionally when the CCI is above the 100 level is typically interpreted as being 'overbought', and below the -100 level is typically considered 'oversold'. Traders will often use the CCI at an overbought level as a confluence for entry into a short position, and the CCI at an oversold level as a confluence for an entry into a long position. These levels do not mean that price will necessarily reverse at those levels in a reliable way, however. This is why this version of the CCI employs the triple timeframe overbought and oversold confluence, in an attempt to add a more confluence and reliability to this usage of the CCI . While traditionally, the overbought and oversold levels are below -100 for oversold, and above 100 for overbought, the default threshold settings of this indicator have been increased to provide fewer, stronger signals, especially suited to the low timeframes and highly volatile assets.

Elevated Leverage index System - ELiSELEVATED LEVERAGE index SYSTEM (ELiS) tries to solve the problem of adjusting meaningful leverage in futures and margin trading.
The biggest problem for traders is adjusting the leverage level manually.
Concerning about the volatilities it's very hard to set a meaningful leverage level.
ELiS includes 4 different volatility component which are:
1- nATR: Normalized Average True Range which is actually ATR/price to stabilize ATR's value differences when price changes are high on long term periods.
2- Standard Deviation
3- Kairi based nATR
4- Bollinger %B
which are scaled from 0 to 100 and takes different averages with different combinations & ratios and combines them as an index.
This index calculates an average volatility to set the true leverage level when trading futures especially in Crypto and FX markets.
There are 5 risk levels of "GEARS" like on automobiles to set the max leverage for risk management.
Gear 1 - CONSERVATIVE: max leverage level can be 20 for swing traders and beginners
Gear 2 - STANDARD: max leverage level can be 25 (default) for day traders
Gear 3 - AVERAGE: max leverage level can be 33 for day traders
Gear 4 - RISKY: max leverage level can be 50 for scalpers
Gear 5 - AGRESSIVE: max leverage level can be 100 for advanced scalpers
default length for ATR, Standard Deviation and %B are all 50
Simply:
When markets aren't volatile: ELiS indicateshigher leverage values to maximize profits.
When markets are volatile enough: ELiS indicates lower values to reduce risk level.
hope you all enjoy ELiS on profitable trades.
Elder Impulse System + ATR BandsDisregard the above chart, I am not sure why it isn't showing the one I want, which is linked below:
This is as far as I can tell the closest representation to Dr. Alexander Elder's updated "Elder Impulse System" that has added ATR-volatility bands up to 3x deviations from price. I got the idea from watching this recent video (www.youtube.com) of Dr. Elder reviewing some recent trades and noticed he had updated his system from his original books. The Impulse System colour coding was inspired by AstralLoverFlow and LazyBear. ATR Bands are pre-programmed Keltner Channels with some modifications such as filing in the ATR Zones with user-selected colour bands and modifying the ATR value to better suit the volatility of the market being traded.
The script has several components, which I will detail below:
Exponential Moving Averages:
1) A 13-period EMA that is used as a staple in all of Dr. Elder's technical analysis. He uses this EMA as the basis for all of his indicators and why it is included here.
2) A 26-period EMA which can be used as a base-line of sorts to filter when to go long or when to go short. For instance, price over the 26-EMA, price is strong and the rally upwards is likely to continue, underneath it, price is weak and likely to continue downwards for a time.
Volatility Bands:
By definition these are nothing more than 3 separate Keltner Channels of a 13-period EMA each set to one additional multiplier from the moving average. This gives us a 1x, 2x, and 3x multiplier of average volatility from the 13-period EMA based on a 14-period Average True Range (ATR) reading. The ATR was chosen as it accommodates price gaps and also is the standard formula calculation in TradingView. The values of the bands cannot be adjusted but the colour coding of them can be.
Elder Impulse System:
These colour-coded bars show you the strength and direction of the current chart resolution, calculated by the slope of a 13-period EMA and the slope of a MACD histogram. These are used not as a buying or selling recommendation alone but as trend filters, as per Dr. Elder's own description of them.
Green Bars = The 13-period EMA is sloping positively and the MACD histogram is rising compared to previous bars. The trader should only consider buying/long opportunities when a green bar is most recent.
Red Bars = The 13-period EMA is sloping negatively and the MACD histogram is falling compared to previous bars. The trader should only consider selling/short opportunities when a red bar is most recent.
Blue Bars = The 13-period EMA and the MACD histogram are not aligned. One of the indicators is sloping opposite to the other indicator. These are known as indecision bars and are typically seen near the end of a previously established trend. The trader can choose to wait for either a green or red bar to shape their trading bias if they are more risk-averse while a counter-trend trader may decide to try opening a position against the currently-established trend.
How To Trade the System:
This system is unique in that it is so versatile and will fit the styles of many traders, be it trend following traders (generally the original Elder Impulse System design) or mean-reversion/counter-trend trading (the original Keltner Channel design). None of the examples below or in the chart above are financial advice and are just there for demonstration purposes only.
1) The most basic signal given would be the moving average cross up or down. A cross of the 13-EMA over the 26-EMA signals upward trend strength and the trader could look for buying opportunities. Conversely, the 13-EMA under the 26-EMA shows downward trend strength and the trader could look for selling opportunities.
2) Following the Elder Impulse system in conjunction with the EMAs. Look for long opportunities when a green bar is printed and price is over both of the 13- and 26-period EMAs. Look for short opportunities when a red bar is printed and price is below both of the 13- and 26-period EMAs. Keep in mind this does not necessarily need a moving average cross to be viable, a green or red bar over both EMAs is a valid signal in this system, usually. Examine price more closely for better entry signals when a blue bar is printed and price is either above or below both EMAs if you are a trend trader. This is how Dr. Elder originally intended the system to be used in conjunction with his famous Triple Screen Trading System. I am not going into detail here as it is a deep subject but I would suggest an interested trader to examine this Triple Screen System further as it is widely accepted as a strong strategy.
3) Mean Reversion and Counter-Trend Trading. Dr. Elder mentions that the zone between the two EMAs is called the Value Zone. A mean reversion trader could look for buying opportunities if price has generally been in an uptrend and falls back to value, conversely, they could look for shorting opportunities if price has generally been in a downtrend and rises back to value. These are your very basic pull backs found in trends that create your higher lows in an uptrend or your lower highs in a downtrend. A mean reversion/scalper trader may also look to use the upper and lower most ATR bands as an indication of price being overbought or oversold and could look to enter a counter-trend trade here once a blue indecision bar is printed and to ride that move back down to the Value Zone.
Taking Profits and Risk Management
This system again is very versatile and will fit a wide range of trading styles. It has built in take profit levels and risk management depending on your style of trading.
1a) In original Triple Screen Trading (and the original Elder Impulse system), a trader was to place a buy order one tick above a newly printed green bar with a stop loss one tick below the most recent 2-day low, and vice-versa for red bars on short selling. as long as other criteria were met, that I will not go into. It is all over YouTube and in his books and on Investopedia if you want more information. The general idea is to continue the trend in the direction if price is strong and you are bought into that move with a close stop, or if price falls back a little bit, you can get in at a better price. This would be a system typically better suited to a scalper.
1b) The updated risk management according to the above video is to place a stop loss at least 2ATR away from price. These bands already have calculated these values so a trader can place a stop one tick below the 2 or even 3ATR zones depending on their risk appetite. This is assuming you have already received a strong buy signal based on the system you follow. This would be a system typically better suited to a trend-trader.
2a) Taking profits if you are a trend trader has several possibilities. The first, as Dr. Elder suggests, is to place a price target 2ATR values away from your entry giving you approximately a 1:1 risk-reward ratio.
2b) The second possibility if the trade is successful is to ride the trend upwards until a blue bar is printed, suggesting indecision in the market. A modified version of this that could let a winning trade run longer is to wait for the price to close under the 13-EMA in fast markets, or close under the 26-EMA in slightly slower markets to maximize potential winnings.
2c) A scalper trader may wish to have a target at either the value zone if they are playing an extended buy/short back to the mean, or if they are being at the mean, to sell or cover when price extends back out to the 2x or 3x zone.
3) Trend traders can additionally use the ATR zones as a sort of safety guidelines for entering a trade. Anything within the 1ATR zone is typically a safer entry as the market is less volatile at this time. Entering when price has gone into the 2ATR zone is signaled as a strong momentum move and can signal a stronger move in the direction of the current closing bar. While not always the case, it is suggested by Dr. Elder to not enter trend trades at the 3ATR zone as this is where you will be likely looking for a counter-trend retracement back to value and a trader entering here in the direction of the trade has a higher chance of being stopped out or not getting in at the best possible price.
Distance From EMAThis indicator plots the distance in percent from price action to a moving average. Negative values mean that the price is below the moving average and positive values mean that the price is above the moving average. You can chose from EMA, MA, WMA, HMA for your input moving average. You can also change the period and source( open, close, high, low ). This is a useful tool for scalpers.
HLC Bollinger BandsThis is just a Bollinger band indicator that uses the highs & lows in addition to the close in the calculation of volatility / deviations from average. These bands will be slightly wider than regular Bollingers as a result.
I've found it useful with very short lookback lengths (3 to 5) for identifying periods when the bands are contracted... usually leads to an expansion of volatilty, so good for scalps.
Enjoy.
Support Vs Reward RvCSupport Vs Reward RvC
The Support Vs Reward RvC indicator is a simple yet effective tool that analyzes candle strength relative to both price movement and trading volume. Highlights candles where both body size and volume expand or contract, helping traders spot momentum shifts and weakening moves.
📌 How it works:
- “C” expect a Continuation of Trend in the next one or two candles;
- “R” expect a Reverse of Trend in the next one or two candles.
Works well on bigger time candles like 10-15 minutes but also gives important info in day-trading or scalping.
Marks candles where both body size and volume increase or decrease, making momentum shifts easy to spot. This smart candle analyzer reveals momentum surges and fading moves through body size and volume dynamics.
It compares each candle’s body size (open-to-close range) and its volume against the previous candle.
If both the body and volume are greater than the previous candle, a green “C” from Continuation of Trend is displayed under the bar.
If both the body and volume are smaller than the previous candle, a red “R” from Reverse of Trend is displayed under the bar.
Custom filters allow users to ignore insignificant moves by setting a minimum body size (as % of price) and a minimum volume threshold.
📌 Use cases:
Spot momentum shifts when price and volume expand together.
Identify weakening moves when both price action and volume contract.
Can be combined with other strategies for confirmation of entries or exits.
⚙️ Inputs:
Minimum Body Size % (of price): Filters out small candles.
Minimum Volume: Ensures only significant moves are marked.
This indicator is best used as a confirmation tool within a larger trading strategy, rather than as a standalone buy/sell signal.
Session Pivots + EMA20/50 + Bollinger BandsMulti-tool indicator combining session pivots, EMA trend filters, Bollinger Bands, and alerts for intraday trading.
📌 Description
One of the biggest advantages of this indicator is that it supports TradingView’s ALERT system, so traders can be notified the moment price crosses the daily/session pivot level. This allows faster decision-making without constant chart watching.
This script combines three powerful tools into a single indicator:
Session Pivot Levels (with Support/Resistance): Automatically calculates pivot, R1–R3 and S1–S3 levels based on the previous trading session (London, New York, Asia, or custom). Levels are plotted with clean labels and connector lines so you always see the exact price values ahead of time.
EMA Trend Filters (20 & 50): Tracks short- and medium-term market direction with two popular exponential moving averages, helping confirm entries and exits.
Bollinger Bands (fully customizable): Adds volatility bands with choice of SMA, EMA, SMMA, WMA, or VWMA for the middle line, plus adjustable standard deviation and offset.
✅ Key Features
Auto-detects London, New York, and Asian sessions or set your own custom session.
Displays up to 3 levels of support and resistance from the previous session.
Clean label display with customizable theme options (Dark, Light, Custom).
Alerts included: Get notified instantly when price crosses above or below the Pivot.
EMA20/50 trend confirmation built-in.
Bollinger Bands with multiple moving average types and volatility settings.

Capiba Custom RSI with Divergences v2
🇬🇧 English
Summary
This indicator is an enhanced and customizable version of the classic RSI, designed to provide clearer and more powerful trading signals. It combines an alternative, more price-sensitive RSI calculation with an automatic divergence detection, which is one of the most effective tools for predicting trend reversals and finding high-probability entry and exit points.
Built upon the compilation of knowledge and open-source codes from the community, this script has been refined to be an all-in-one tool for traders who base their strategies on momentum and trend exhaustion.
Key Features and How to Use
Ultimate RSI and Signal Line (Momentum)
What it is: The main indicator (white line) is an RSI variation that reacts more dynamically to changes in price volatility. It is accompanied by a signal line (orange, by default), which is a moving average of the RSI itself, serving to smooth the indicator and generate crossover signals.
How to use for Entries/Exits:
Buy Signal (Short-Term): Crossover of the RSI line (white) above the signal line (orange).
Sell Signal (Short-Term): Crossover of the RSI line (white) below the signal line (orange). These are momentum signals, ideal for confirming a trend or for scalping.
Automatic Divergence Detection (Reversal Signals) This is the most powerful feature of the indicator. A divergence occurs when the price moves in one direction and the momentum indicator moves in the opposite direction, signaling a likely exhaustion of the current trend.
Bullish Divergence (Green Line):
What it is: The price makes a lower low, but the RSI makes a higher low.
Meaning: Selling pressure is decreasing. It is a strong signal of a potential market bottom and an excellent entry opportunity for a long position.
Bearish Divergence (Red Line):
What it is: The price makes a higher high, but the RSI makes a lower high.
Meaning: Buying pressure is losing strength. It is a strong signal of a potential market top and an excellent exit opportunity for a long position or an entry for a short position.
Customizable Overbought & Oversold Levels
The horizontal lines (default 80 and 20) and the colored areas show when the asset is overextended to the upside (overbought) or downside (oversold), helping to contextualize the divergence and crossover signals.
Recommended Strategy
For maximum effectiveness, combine the signals:
High-Probability Entry (Buy): Look for a Bullish Divergence (green line) forming in the oversold zone. Confirm the entry when the RSI line crosses above its signal line.
High-Probability Exit (Sell): Look for a Bearish Divergence (red line) forming in the overbought zone. Confirm the exit or new short entry when the RSI line crosses below its signal line.

Advanced ICT Theory - A-ICT📊 Advanced ICT Theory (A-ICT): The Institutional Manipulation Detector
Are you tired of being the liquidity? Stop chasing shadows and start tracking the architects of price movement.
This is not another lagging indicator. This is a complete framework for viewing the market through the lens of institutional traders. Advanced ICT Theory (A-ICT) is an all-in-one, military-grade analysis engine designed to decode the complex language of "Smart Money." It automates the core tenets of Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology, moving beyond simple patterns to build a dynamic, real-time narrative of market manipulation, liquidity engineering, and institutional order flow.
AIT provides a living blueprint of the market, identifying high-probability zones, tracking structural shifts, and scoring the quality of setups with a sophisticated, multi-factor algorithm. This is your X-ray into the market's true intentions.
🔬 THE CORE ENGINE: DECODING THE THEORY & FORMULAS
A-ICT is built upon a sophisticated, multi-layered logic system that interprets price action as a story of cause and effect. It does not guess; it confirms. Here is the foundational theory that drives the engine:
1. Market Structure: The Blueprint of Trend
The script first establishes a deep understanding of the market's skeleton through multi-level pivot analysis. It uses ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow to identify significant swing points.
Internal Structure (iBOS): Minor swings that show the short-term order flow. A break of internal structure is the first whisper of a potential shift.
External Structure (eBOS): Major swing points that define the primary trend. A confirmed break of external structure is a powerful statement of trend continuation. AIT validates this with optional Volume Confirmation (volume > volumeSMA * 1.2) and Candle Confirmation to ensure the break is driven by institutional force, not just a random spike.
Change of Character (CHoCH): This is the earthquake. A CHoCH occurs when a confirmed eBOS happens against the prevailing trend (e.g., a bearish eBOS in a clear uptrend). A-ICT flags this immediately, as it is the strongest signal that the primary trend is under threat of reversal.
2. Liquidity Engineering: The Fuel of the Market
Institutions don't buy into strength; they buy into weakness. They need liquidity. A-ICT maps these liquidity pools with forensic precision:
Buyside & Sellside Liquidity (BSL/SSL): Using ta.highest and ta.lowest, AIT identifies recent highs and lows where clusters of stop-loss orders (liquidity) are resting. These are institutional targets.
Liquidity Sweeps: This is the "manipulation" part of the detector. AIT has a specific formula to detect a sweep: high > bsl and close < bsl . This signifies that institutions pushed price just high enough to trigger buy-stops before aggressively selling—a classic "stop hunt." This event dramatically increases the quality score of subsequent patterns.
3. The Element Lifecycle: From Potential to Power
This is the revolutionary heart of A-ICT. Zones are not static; they have a lifecycle. AIT tracks this with its dynamic classification engine.
Phase 1: PENDING (Yellow): The script identifies a potential zone of interest based on a specific candle formation (a "displacement"). It is marked as "Pending" because its true nature is unknown. It is a question.
Phase 2: CLASSIFICATION: After the zone is created, AIT watches what happens next. The zone's identity is defined by its actions:
ORDER BLOCK (Blue): The highest-grade element. A zone is classified as an Order Block if it directly causes a Break of Structure (BOS) . This is the footprint of institutions entering the market with enough force to validate the new trend direction.
TRAP ZONE (Orange): A zone is classified as a Trap Zone if it is directly involved in a Liquidity Sweep . This indicates the zone was used to engineer liquidity, setting a "trap" for retail traders before a reversal.
REVERSAL / S&R ZONE (Green): If a zone is not powerful enough to cause a BOS or a major sweep, but still serves as a pivot point, it's classified as a general support/resistance or reversal zone.
4. Market Inefficiencies: Gaps in the Matrix
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): AIT detects FVGs—a 3-bar pattern indicating an imbalance—with a strict formula: low > high (for a bullish FVG) and gapSize > atr14 * 0.5. This ensures only significant, volatile gaps are shown. An FVG co-located with an Order Block is a high-confluence setup.
5. Premium & Discount: The Law of Value
Institutions buy at wholesale (Discount) and sell at retail (Premium). AIT uses a pdLookback to define the current dealing range and divides it into three zones: Premium (sell zone), Discount (buy zone), and Equilibrium. An element's quality score is massively boosted if it aligns with this principle (e.g., a bullish Order Block in a Discount zone).

Every setting is a lever, allowing you to tune the AIT engine to your exact specifications. Master these to unlock the script's full potential.
🎯 A-ICT Detection Engine
Min Displacement Candles: Controls the sensitivity of element detection. How it works: It defines the number of subsequent candles that must be "inside" a large parent candle. Best practice: Use 2-3 for a balanced view on most timeframes. A higher number (4-5) will find only major, more significant zones, ideal for swing trading. A lower number (1) is highly sensitive, suitable for scalping.
Mitigation Method: Defines when a zone is considered "used up" or mitigated. How it works: Cross triggers as soon as price touches the zone's boundary. Close requires a candle to fully close beyond it. Best practice: Cross is more responsive for fast-moving markets. Close is more conservative and helps filter out fake-outs caused by wicks, making it safer for confirmations.
Min Element Size (ATR): A crucial noise filter. How it works: It requires a detected zone to be at least this multiple of the Average True Range (ATR). Best practice: Keep this around 0.5. If you see too many tiny, irrelevant zones, increase this value to 0.8 or 1.0. If you feel the script is missing smaller but valid zones, decrease it to 0.3.
Age Threshold & Pending Timeout: These manage visual clutter. How they work: Age Threshold removes old, mitigated elements after a set number of bars. Pending Timeout removes a "Pending" element if it isn't classified within a certain window. Best practice: The default settings are optimized. If your chart feels cluttered, reduce the Age Threshold. If pending zones disappear too quickly, increase the Pending Timeout.
Min Quality Threshold: Your primary visual filter. How it works: It hides all elements (boxes, lines, labels) that do not meet this minimum quality score (0-100). Best practice: Start with the default 30. To see only A- or B-grade setups, increase this to 60 or 70 for an exceptionally clean, high-probability view.
🏗️ Market Structure
Lookbacks (Internal, External, Major): These define the sensitivity of the trend analysis. How they work: They set the number of bars to the left and right for pivot detection. Best practice: Use smaller values for Internal (e.g., 3) to see minor structure and larger values for External (e.g., 10-15) to map the main trend. For a macro, long-term view, increase the Major Swing Lookback.
Require Volume/Candle Confirmation: Toggles for quality control on BOS/CHoCH signals. Best practice: It is highly recommended to keep these enabled. Disabling them will result in more structure signals, but many will be false alarms. They are your filter against market noise.

📊 THE INTELLIGENCE DASHBOARDS: YOUR COMMAND CENTER
The dashboards synthesize all the complex analysis into a simple, actionable intelligence briefing.
Main Dashboard (Bottom Right)
ICT Metrics & Breakdown: This is your statistical overview. Total Elements shows how much structure the script is tracking. High Quality instantly tells you if there are any A/B grade setups nearby. Unmitigated vs. Mitigated shows the balance of fresh opportunities versus resolved price action. The breakdown by Order Blocks, Trap Zones, etc., gives you a quick read on the market's recent character.
Structure & Market Context: This is your core bias. Order Flow tells you the current script-determined trend. Last BOS shows you the most recent structural event. CHoCH Active is a critical warning. HTF Bias shows if you are aligned with the higher timeframe—the checkmark (✓) for alignment is one of the most important confluence factors.
Smart Money Flow: A volume-based sentiment gauge. Net Flow shows the raw buying vs. selling pressure, while the Bias provides an interpretation (e.g., "STRONG BULLISH FLOW").
Key Guide (Large Dashboard only): A built-in legend so you never have to guess. It defines every pattern, structure type, and special level visually.
📖 Narrative Dashboard (Bottom Left)
This is the "story" of the market, updated in real-time. It's designed to build your trading thesis.
Recent Elements Table: A live list of the most recent, high-quality setups. It displays the Type , its Narrative Role (e.g., "Bullish OB caused BOS"), its raw Quality percentage, and its final Trade Score grade. This is your at-a-glance opportunity scanner.
Market Narrative Section: This is the soul of A-ICT. It combines all data points into a human-readable story:
📍 Current Phase: Tells you if you are in a high-volatility Killzone or a consolidation phase like the Asian Range.
🎯 Bias & Alignment: Your primary direction, with a clear indicator of HTF alignment or conflict.
🔗 Events: A causal sequence of recent events, like "💧 Sell-side liquidity swept →
📊 Bullish BOS → 🎯 Active Order Block".
🎯 Next Expectation: The script's logical conclusion. It provides a specific, forward-looking hypothesis, such as "📉 Pullback expected to bullish OB at 1.2345 before continuation up."
🎨 READING THE BATTLEFIELD: A VISUAL INTERPRETATION GUIDE
Every color and line is a piece of information. Learn to read them together to see the full picture.
The Core Zones (Boxes):
Blue Box (Order Block): Highest probability zone for trend continuation. Look for entries here.
Orange Box (Trap Zone): A manipulation footprint. Expect a potential reversal after price interacts with this zone.
Green Box (Reversal/S&R): A standard pivot area. A good reference point but requires more confluence.
Purple Box (FVG): A market imbalance. Acts as a magnet for price. An FVG inside an Order Block is an A+ confluence.
The Structural Lines:
Green/Red Line (eBOS): Confirms the trend direction. A break above the green line is bullish; a break below the red line is bearish.
Thick Orange Line (CHoCH): WARNING. The previous trend is now in question. The market character has changed.
Blue/Red Lines (BSL/SSL): Liquidity targets. Expect price to gravitate towards these lines. A dotted line with a checkmark (✓) means the liquidity has been "swept" or "purged."
How to Synthesize: The magic is in the confluence. A perfect setup might look like this: Price sweeps below a red SSL line , enters a green Discount Zone during the NY Killzone , and forms a blue Order Block which then causes a green eBOS . This sequence, visible at a glance, is the story of a high-probability long setup.
🔧 THE ARCHITECT'S VISION: THE DEVELOPMENT JOURNEY
A-ICT was forged from the frustration of using lagging indicators in a market that is forward-looking. Traditional tools are reactive; they tell you what happened. The vision for A-ICT was to create a proactive engine that could anticipate institutional behavior by understanding their objectives: liquidity and efficiency. The development process was centered on creating a "lifecycle" for price patterns—the idea that a zone's true meaning is only revealed by its consequence. This led to the post-breakout classification system and the narrative-building engine. It's designed not just to show you patterns, but to tell you their story.
⚠️ RISK DISCLAIMER & BEST PRACTICES

📈 How to Use
Use the MA1–MA2 and MA3–MA4 zones for longer-term trend tracking and confluence analysis.
Use the faster MA5–MA6 zone for short-term micro-trend identification or scalping.
When a faster MA is above the slower one within a pair, the fill turns bullish (user-defined color).
When the faster MA is below the slower one, the fill turns bearish.
Combine with price action or other indicators for entry/exit confirmation.
🧠 Pro Tips
For trend-following strategies, consider using EMA or WMA types.
For mean-reversion or support/resistance zones, SMA and VWMA may offer better zone clarity.
Overlay with RSI, MACD, or custom entry signals for higher confidence setups.
Use different heatmap transparencies to visually separate overlapping MA zones.
Share Size FinderEnter your target gain and return timeframe to calculate how many shares to buy and the price you’ll need to sell at to meet that goal.
The return timeframe is based on how many candles (based on the ATR) it may take to reach your exit price. I use 2 for scalping.
The table shows the total cost of buying that share amount at the current price—useful for managing account risk, especially for cash accounts or those under PDT rules.
A chart of the exit price is also included to help you compare with projections like Fibonacci extensions.
Alpha - Combined BreakoutThis Pine Script indicator, "Alpha - Combined Breakout," is a combination between Smart Money Breakout Signals and UT Bot Alert, The UT Bot Alert indicator was initially developer by Yo_adriiiiaan
The idea of original code belongs HPotter.
This Indicator helps you identify potential trading opportunities by combining two distinct strategies: Smart Money Breakout and a modified UT Bot (likely a variation of the Ultimate Trend Bot). It provides visual signals, draws lines for potential take profit (TP) and stop loss (SL) levels, and includes a dashboard to track performance metrics.
Tutorial:
Understanding and Using the "Alpha - Combined Breakout" Indicator
This indicator is designed for traders looking for confirmation of market direction and potential entry/exit points by blending structural analysis with a trend-following oscillator.
How it Works (General Concept)
The indicator combines two main components:
Smart Money Breakout: This part identifies significant breaks in market structure, which "smart money" traders often use to gauge shifts in supply and demand. It looks for higher highs/lows or lower highs/lows and flags when these structural points are broken.
UT Bot: This is a trend-following component that generates buy and sell signals based on price action relative to an Average True Range (ATR) based trailing stop.
You can choose to use these signals independently or combined to generate trading alerts and visual cues on your chart. The dashboard provides a quick overview of how well the signals are performing based on your chosen settings and display mode.
Parameters and What They Do
Let's break down each input parameter:
1. Smart Money Inputs
These settings control how the indicator identifies market structure and breakouts.
swingSize (Market Structure Time-Horizon):
What it does: This integer value defines the number of candles used to identify significant "swing" (pivot) points—highs and lows.
Effect: A larger swingSize creates a smoother market structure, focusing on longer-term trends. This means signals might appear less frequently and with some delay but could be more reliable for higher timeframes or broader market movements. A smaller swingSize will pick up more minor market structure changes, leading to more frequent but potentially noisier signals, suitable for lower timeframes or scalping.
Analogy: Think of it like a zoom level on your market structure map. Higher values zoom out, showing only major mountain ranges. Lower values zoom in, showing every hill and bump.
bosConfType (BOS Confirmation Type):
What it does: This string input determines how a Break of Structure (BOS) is confirmed. You have two options:
'Candle Close': A breakout is confirmed only if a candle's closing price surpasses the previous swing high (for bullish) or swing low (for bearish).
'Wicks': A breakout is confirmed if any part of the candle (including its wick) surpasses the previous swing high or low.
Effect: 'Candle Close' provides stronger, more conservative confirmation, as it implies sustained price movement beyond the structure. 'Wicks' provides earlier, more aggressive signals, as it captures momentary breaches of the structure.
Analogy: Imagine a wall. 'Candle Close' means the whole person must get over the wall. 'Wicks' means even a finger touching over the top counts as a breach.
choch (Show CHoCH):
What it does: A boolean (true/false) input to enable or disable the display of "Change of Character" (CHoCH) labels. CHoCH indicates the first structural break against the current dominant trend.
Effect: When true, it helps identify early signs of a potential trend reversal, as it marks where the market's "character" (its tendency to make higher highs/lows or lower lows/highs) first changes.
BULL (Bullish Color) & BEAR (Bearish Color):
What they do: These color inputs allow you to customize the visual appearance of bullish and bearish signals and lines drawn by the Smart Money component.
Effect: Purely cosmetic, helps with visual identification on the chart.
sm_tp_sl_multiplier (SM TP/SL Multiplier (ATR)):
What it does: A float value that acts as a multiplier for the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate the Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels specifically when you're in "Smart Money Only" mode. It uses the ATR calculated by the UT Bot's nLoss_ut as its base.
Effect: A higher multiplier creates wider TP/SL levels, potentially leading to fewer trades but larger wins/losses. A lower multiplier creates tighter TP/SL levels, potentially leading to more frequent but smaller wins/losses.
2. UT Bot Alerts Inputs
These parameters control the behavior and sensitivity of the UT Bot component.
a_ut (UT Key Value (Sensitivity)):
What it does: This integer value adjusts the sensitivity of the UT Bot.
Effect: A higher value makes the UT Bot less sensitive to price fluctuations, resulting in fewer and potentially more reliable signals. A lower value makes it more sensitive, generating more signals, which can include more false signals.
Analogy: Like a noise filter. Higher values filter out more noise, keeping only strong signals.
c_ut (UT ATR Period):
What it does: This integer sets the look-back period for the Average True Range (ATR) calculation used by the UT Bot. ATR measures market volatility.
Effect: This period directly influences the calculation of the nLoss_ut (which is a_ut * xATR_ut), thus defining the distance of the trailing stop loss and take profit levels. A longer period makes the ATR smoother and less reactive to sudden price spikes. A shorter period makes it more responsive.
h_ut (UT Signals from Heikin Ashi Candles):
What it does: A boolean (true/false) input to determine if the UT Bot calculations should use standard candlestick data or Heikin Ashi candlestick data.
Effect: Heikin Ashi candles smooth out price action, often making trends clearer and reducing noise. Using them for UT Bot signals can lead to smoother, potentially delayed signals that stay with a trend longer. Standard candles are more reactive to raw price changes.
3. Line Drawing Control Buttons
These crucial boolean inputs determine which type of signals will trigger the drawing of TP/SL/Entry lines and flags on your chart. They act as a priority system.
drawLinesUtOnly (Draw Lines: UT Only):
What it does: If checked (true), lines and flags will only be drawn when the UT Bot generates a buy/sell signal.
Effect: Isolates UT Bot signals for visual analysis.
drawLinesSmartMoneyOnly (Draw Lines: Smart Money Only):
What it does: If checked (true), lines and flags will only be drawn when the Smart Money Breakout logic generates a bullish/bearish breakout.
Effect: Overrides drawLinesUtOnly if both are checked. Isolates Smart Money signals.
drawLinesCombined (Draw Lines: UT & Smart Money (Combined)):
What it does: If checked (true), lines and flags will only be drawn when both a UT Bot signal AND a Smart Money Breakout signal occur on the same bar.
Effect: Overrides both drawLinesUtOnly and drawLinesSmartMoneyOnly if checked. Provides the strictest entry criteria for line drawing, looking for strong confluence.
Dashboard Metrics Explained
The dashboard provides performance statistics based on the lines drawing control button selected. For example, if "Draw Lines: UT Only" is active, the dashboard will show stats only for UT Bot signals.
Total Signals: The total number of buy or sell signals generated by the selected drawing mode.
TP1 Win Rate: The percentage of signals where the price reached Take Profit 1 (TP1) before hitting the Stop Loss.
TP2 Win Rate: The percentage of signals where the price reached Take Profit 2 (TP2) before hitting the Stop Loss.
TP3 Win Rate: The percentage of signals where the price reached Take Profit 3 (TP3) before hitting the Stop Loss. (Note: TP1, TP2, TP3 are in order of distance from entry, with TP3 being furthest.)
SL before any TP rate: This crucial metric shows the number of times the Stop Loss was hit / the percentage of total signals where the stop loss was triggered before any of the three Take Profit levels were reached. This gives you a clear picture of how often a trade resulted in a loss without ever moving into profit target territory.
Short Tutorial: How to Use the Indicator
Add to Chart: Open your TradingView chart, go to "Indicators," search for "Alpha - Combined Breakout," and add it to your chart.
Access Settings: Once added, click the gear icon next to the indicator name on your chart to open its settings.
Choose Your Signal Mode:
For UT Bot only: Uncheck "Draw Lines: Smart Money Only" and "Draw Lines: UT & Smart Money (Combined)". Ensure "Draw Lines: UT Only" is checked.
For Smart Money only: Uncheck "Draw Lines: UT Only" and "Draw Lines: UT & Smart Money (Combined)". Ensure "Draw Lines: Smart Money Only" is checked.
For Combined Signals: Check "Draw Lines: UT & Smart Money (Combined)". This will override the other two.
Adjust Parameters:
Start with default settings. Observe how the signals appear on your chosen asset and timeframe.
Refine Smart Money: If you see too many "noisy" market structure breaks, increase swingSize. If you want earlier breakouts, try "Wicks" for bosConfType.
Refine UT Bot: Adjust a_ut (Sensitivity) to get more or fewer UT Bot signals. Change c_ut (ATR Period) if you want larger or smaller TP/SL distances. Experiment with h_ut to see if Heikin Ashi smoothing suits your trading style.
Adjust TP/SL Multiplier: If using "Smart Money Only" mode, fine-tune sm_tp_sl_multiplier to set appropriate risk/reward levels.
Interpret Signals & Lines:
Buy/Sell Flags: These indicate the presence of a signal based on your selected drawing mode.
Entry Line (Blue Solid): This is where the signal was generated (usually the close price of the signal candle).
SL Line (Red/Green Solid): Your calculated stop loss level.
TP Lines (Dashed): Your three calculated take profit levels (TP1, TP2, TP3, where TP3 is the furthest target).
Smart Money Lines (BOS/CHoCH): These lines indicate horizontal levels where market structure breaks occurred. CHoCH labels might appear at the first structural break against the prior trend.
Monitor Dashboard: Pay attention to the dashboard in the top right corner. This dynamically updates to show the win rates for each TP and, crucially, the "SL before any TP rate." Use these statistics to evaluate the effectiveness of the indicator's signals under your current settings and chosen mode.
*
Set Alerts (Optional): You can set up alerts for any of the specific signals (UT Bot Long/Short, Smart Money Bullish/Bearish, or the "Line Draw" combined signals) to notify you when they occur, even if you're not actively watching the chart.
By following this tutorial, you'll be able to effectively use and customize the "Alpha - Combined Breakout" indicator to suit your trading strategy.

Uptrick: Universal Z-Score ValuationOverview
The Uptrick: Universal Z-Score Valuation is a tool designed to help traders spot when the market might be overreacting—whether that’s on the upside or the downside. It does this by combining the Z-scores of multiple key indicators into a single average, letting you see how far the current market conditions have stretched away from “normal.” This average is shown as a smooth line, supported by color-coded visuals, signal markers, optional background highlights, and a live breakdown table that shows the contribution of each indicator in real time. The focus here is on spotting potential reversals, not following trends. The indicator works well across all timeframes and asset classes, from fast intraday charts like the 1-minute and 5-minute, to higher timeframes such as the 4-hour, daily, or even weekly. Its universal design makes it suitable for any market — whether you're trading crypto, stocks, forex, or commodities.
Introduction
To understand what this indicator does, let’s start with the idea of a Z-score. In simple terms, a Z-score tells you how far a number is from the average of its recent history, measured in standard deviations. If the price of an asset is two standard deviations above its mean, that means it’s statistically “rare” or extended. That doesn’t guarantee a reversal—but it suggests the move is unusual enough to pay attention.
This concept isn’t new, but what this indicator does differently is apply the Z-score to a wide set of market signals—not just price. It looks at momentum, volatility, volume, risk-adjusted performance, and even institutional price baselines. Each of those indicators is normalized using Z-scores, and then they’re combined into one average. This gives you a single, easy-to-read line that summarizes whether the entire market is behaving abnormally. Instead of reacting to one indicator, you’re reacting to a statistically balanced blend.
Purpose
The goal of this script is to catch turning points—places where the market may be topping out or bottoming after becoming overstretched. It’s built for traders who want to fade sharp moves rather than follow trends. Think of moments when price explodes upward and starts pulling away from every moving average, volume spikes, volatility rises, and RSI shoots up. This tool is meant to spot those situations—not just when price is stretched, but when multiple different indicators agree that something is overdone.
Originality and Uniqueness
Most indicators that use Z-scores only apply them to one thing—price, RSI, or maybe Bollinger Bands. This one is different because it treats each indicator as a contributor to the full picture. You decide which ones to include, and the script averages them out. This makes the tool flexible but also deeply informative.
It doesn’t rely on complex or hidden math. It uses basic Z-score formulas, applies them to well-known indicators, and shows you the result. What makes it unique is the way it brings those signals together—statistically, visually, and interactively—so you can see what’s happening in the moment with full transparency. It’s not trying to be flashy or predictive. It’s just showing you when things have gone too far, too fast.
Inputs and Parameters
This indicator includes a wide range of configurable inputs, allowing users to customize which components are included in the Z-score average, how each indicator is calculated, and how results are displayed visually. Below is a detailed explanation of each input:
General Settings
Z-Score Lookback (default: 100): Number of bars used to calculate the mean and standard deviation for Z-score normalization. Larger values smooth the Z-scores; smaller values make them more reactive.
Bar Color Mode (default: None): Determines how bars are visually colored. Options include: None: No candle coloring applied. - Heat: Smooth gradient based on the Z-score value. - Latest Signal: Applies a solid color based on the most recent buy or sell signal
Boolean - General
Plot Universal Valuation Line (default: true): If enabled, plots the average Z-score (zAvg) line in the separate pane.
Show Signals (default: true): Displays labels ("𝓤𝓹" for buy, "𝓓𝓸𝔀𝓷" for sell) when zAvg crosses above or below user-defined thresholds.
Show Z-Score Table (default: true): Displays a live table listing each enabled indicator's Z-score and the current average.
Select Indicators
These toggles enable or disable each indicator from contributing to the Z-score average:
Use VWAP Z-Score (default: true)
Use Sortino Z-Score (default: true)
Use ROC Z-Score (default: true)
Use Price Z-Score (default: true)
Use MACD Histogram Z-Score (default: false)
Use Bollinger %B Z-Score (default: false)
Use Stochastic K Z-Score (default: false)
Use Volume Z-Score (default: false)
Use ATR Z-Score (default: false)
Use RSI Z-Score (default: false)
Use Omega Z-Score (default: true)
Use Sharpe Z-Score (default: true)
Only enabled indicators are included in the average. This modular design allows traders to tailor the signal mix to their preferences.
Indicator Lengths
These inputs control how each individual indicator is calculated:
MACD Fast Length (default: 12)
MACD Slow Length (default: 26)
MACD Signal Length (default: 9)
Bollinger Basis Length (default: 20): Used to compute the Bollinger %B.
Bollinger Deviation Multiplier (default: 2.0): Standard deviation multiplier for the Bollinger Band calculation.
Stochastic Length (default: 14)
ATR Length (default: 14)
RSI Length (default: 14)
ROC Length (default: 10)
Zones
These thresholds define key signal levels for the Z-score average:
Neutral Line Level (default: 0): Baseline for the average Z-score.
Bullish Zone Level (default: -1): Optional intermediate zone suggesting early bullish conditions.
Bearish Zone Level (default: 1): Optional intermediate zone suggesting early bearish conditions.
Z = +2 Line Level (default: 2): Primary threshold for bearish signals.
Z = +3 Line Level (default: 3): Extreme bearish warning level.
Z = -2 Line Level (default: -2): Primary threshold for bullish signals.
Z = -3 Line Level (default: -3): Extreme bullish warning level.
These zone levels are used to generate signals, fill background shading, and draw horizontal lines for visual reference.
Why These Indicators Were Merged
Each indicator in this script was chosen for a specific reason. They all measure something different but complementary.
The VWAP Z-score helps you see when price has moved far from the volume-weighted average, often used by institutions.
Sortino Ratio Z-score focuses only on downside risk, which is often more relevant to traders than overall volatility.
ROC Z-score shows how fast price is changing—strong momentum may burn out quickly.
Price Z-score is the raw measure of how far current price has moved from its mean.
RSI Z-score shows whether momentum itself is stretched.
MACD Histogram Z-score captures shifts in trend strength and acceleration.
%B (Bollinger) Z-score indicates how close price is to the upper or lower volatility envelope.
Stochastic K Z-score gives a sense of how high or low price is relative to its recent range.
Volume Z-score shows when trading activity is unusually high or low.
ATR Z-score gives a read on volatility, showing if price movement is expanding or contracting.
Sharpe Z-score measures reward-to-risk performance, useful for evaluating trend quality.
Omega Z-score looks at the ratio of good returns to bad ones, offering a more nuanced view of efficiency.
By normalizing each of these using Z-scores and averaging only the ones you turn on, the script creates a flexible, balanced view of the market’s statistical stretch.
Calculations
The core formula is the standard Z-score:
Z = (current value - average) / standard deviation
Every indicator uses this formula after it’s calculated using your chosen settings. For example, RSI is first calculated as usual, then its Z-score is calculated over your selected lookback period. The script does this for every indicator you enable. Then it averages those Z-scores together to create a single value: zAvg. That value is plotted and used to generate visual cues, signals, table values, background color changes, and candle coloring.
Sequence
Each selected indicator is calculated using your custom input lengths.
The Z-score of each indicator is computed using the shared lookback period.
All active Z-scores are added up and averaged.
The resulting zAvg value is plotted as a line.
Signal conditions check if zAvg crosses user-defined thresholds (default: ±2).
If enabled, the script plots buy/sell signal labels at those crossover points.
The candle color is updated using your selected mode (heatmap or signal-based).
If extreme Z-scores are reached, background highlighting is applied.
A live table updates with each individual Z-score so you know what’s driving the signal.
Features
This script isn’t just about stats—it’s about making them usable in real time. Every feature has a clear reason to exist, and they’re all there to give you a better read on market conditions.
1. Universal Z-Score Line
This is your primary reference. It reflects the average Z-score across all selected indicators. The line updates live and is color-coded to show how far it is from neutral. The further it gets from 0, the brighter the color becomes—cyan for deeply oversold conditions, magenta for overbought. This gives you instant feedback on how statistically “hot” or “cold” the market is, without needing to read any numbers.
2. Signal Labels (“𝓤𝓹” and “𝓓𝓸𝔀𝓷”)
When the average Z-score drops below your lower bound, you’ll see a "𝓤𝓹" label below the bar, suggesting potential bullish reversal conditions. When it rises above the upper bound, a "𝓓𝓸𝔀𝓷" label is shown above the bar—indicating possible bearish exhaustion. These labels are visually clear and minimal so they don’t clutter your chart. They're based on clear crossover logic and do not repaint.
3. Real-Time Z-Score Table
The table shows each indicator's individual Z-score and the final average. It updates every bar, giving you a transparent breakdown of what’s happening under the hood. If the market is showing an extreme average score, this table helps you pinpoint which indicators are contributing the most—so you’re not just guessing where the pressure is coming from.
4. Bar Coloring Modes
You can choose from three modes:
None: Keeps your candles clean and untouched.
Heat: Applies a smooth gradient color based on Z-score intensity. As conditions become more extreme, candle color transitions from neutral to either cyan (bullish pressure) or magenta (bearish pressure).
Latest Signal: Applies hard coloring based on the most recent signal—greenish for a buy, purple for a sell. This mode is great for tracking market state at a glance without relying on a gradient.
Every part of the candle is colored—body, wick, and border—for full visibility.
5. Background Highlighting
When zAvg enters an extreme zone (typically above +2 or below -2), the background shifts color to reflect the market’s intensity. These changes aren’t overwhelming—they’re light fills that act as ambient warnings, helping you stay aware of when price might be reaching a tipping point.
6. Customizable Zone Lines and Fills
You can define what counts as neutral, overbought, and oversold using manual inputs. Horizontal lines show your thresholds, and shaded regions highlight the most extreme zones (+2 to +3 and -2 to -3). These lines give you visual structure to understand where price currently stands in relation to your personal reversal model.
7. Modular Indicator Control
You don’t have to use all the indicators. You can enable or disable any of the 12 with a simple checkbox. This means you can build your own “blend” of market context—maybe you only care about RSI, price, and volume. Or maybe you want everything on. The script adapts accordingly, only averaging what you select.
8. Fully Customizable Sensitivity and Lengths
You can adjust the Z-score lookback length globally (default 100), and tweak individual indicator lengths separately. This lets you tune the indicator’s responsiveness to suit your trading style—slower for longer swings, faster for scalping.
9. Clean Integration with Any Chart Layout
All visual elements are designed to be informative without taking over your chart. The coloring is soft but clear, the labels are readable without being huge, and you can turn off any feature you don’t need. The indicator can work as a full dashboard or as a simple line with a couple of alerts—it’s up to you.
10. Precise, Real-Time Signal Logic
The crossover logic for signals is exact and only fires when the Z-score moves across your defined boundary. No estimation, no delay. Everything is calculated based on current and previous bar data, and nothing repaints or back-adjusts.
Conclusion
The Universal Z-Score Valuation indicator is a tool for traders who want a clear, unbiased way to detect overextension. Instead of relying on a single signal, you get a composite of several market perspectives—momentum, volatility, volume, and more—all standardized into a single view. The script gives you the freedom to control the logic, the visuals, and the components. Whether you use it as a confirmation tool or a primary signal source, it’s designed to give you clarity when markets become chaotic.

Pullback Historical DataIndicator Description: Dados-historico-Pullback
This indicator identifies pivot points (local support and resistance levels) on the chart based on a user-defined period. It calculates the difference between the last found resistance and support levels, displaying this current difference as well as its historical maximum and minimum values.
How to use:
Pivot Period:
Adjust the "Pivot Period" parameter to define how many bars before and after the indicator should look for a pivot point (high or low).
A higher value makes the pivot more conservative, finding stronger and more spaced pivots.
A lower value detects more frequent pivots, sensitive to quick market moves.
Label and Text Color:
You can customize the background color of the label and the text color for better visibility on the chart.
Label Size:
The indicator offers four label sizes:
XS (Extra Small): small label to save space.
S (Small): compact and readable size.
M (Medium): default size, a balance between readability and space.
L (Large): bigger label for more emphasis.
If you choose an invalid value, the default M (Medium) size will be used automatically.
Example to adjust the Pivot Period:
Setting the Pivot Period to 3 means the indicator will look for pivots within 3 bars before and after each point. This produces many pivots, including smaller ones and noise. It’s useful for fast trades or scalping.
Setting it to 10 means the indicator looks for pivots farther apart, producing fewer signals but more significant ones, suitable for more conservative analysis.
I recommend starting with a middle value like 5 and testing how the indicator behaves on your chart. Then adjust up or down depending on your trading style and timeframe.
Market Matrix ViewThis technical indicator is designed to provide traders with a quick and integrated view of market dynamics by combining several popular indicators into a single tool. It's not a magic bullet, but a practical aid for analyzing buying/selling pressure, trends, volume, and divergences, saving you time in the decision-making process. Built for flexibility, the indicator adapts to various trading styles (scalping, swing, or long-term) and offers customizable settings to suit your needs.
🟡 Multi-Timeframe Trends
➤ This section displays the trend direction (bullish, bearish, or neutral) across 15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, and Daily timeframes, providing multi-timeframe market context. Timeframes lower than the one currently selected will show "N/A."
➤It utilizes fast and slow Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) for each timeframe:
15m: Fast EMA 42, Slow EMA 170
1h: Fast EMA 40, Slow EMA 100
4h: Fast EMA 36, Slow EMA 107
Daily: Fast EMA 20, Slow EMA 60
🟡 Smart Flow & RVOL
➤ This section displays "Buying Pressure" or "Selling Pressure" signals based on indicator confluence, alongside volume activity ("High Activity," "Normal Activity," or "Low Activity").
➤ Smart Flow combines Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) and Money Flow Index (MFI) to detect buying/selling pressure. CMF measures money flow based on price position within the high-low range, while MFI analyzes money flow considering typical price and volume. A signal is generated only when both indicators simultaneously increase/decrease beyond an adjustable threshold ("Buy/Sell Sensitivity") and volume exceeds a Simple Moving Average (SMA) scaled by the "Volume Multiplier."
➤ RVOL (Relative Volume) calculates relative volume separately for bullish and bearish candles, comparing recent volume (fast SMA) with a reference volume (slow SMA). Thresholds are adjusted based on the selected mode.
🟡 ADX & RSI
This section displays trend strength ("Strong," "Moderate," or "Weak"), its direction ("Bullish" or "Bearish"), and the RSI momentum status ("Overbought," "Oversold," "Buy/Sell Momentum," or "Neutral").
➤ ADX (Average Directional Index) measures trend strength (above 40 = "Strong," 20–40 = "Moderate," below 20 = "Weak"). Direction is determined by comparing +DI (upward movement) with -DI (downward movement). Additionally, an arrow indicates whether the trend's strength is decreasing or increasing.
➤RSI (Relative Strength Index) evaluates price momentum. Extreme levels (above 80/85 = "Overbought," below 15/20 = "Oversold") and intermediate zones (47–53 = "Neutral," above 53 = "Buy Momentum," below 47 = "Sell Momentum") are adjusted based on the selected mode.
🟡 When these signals are active for a potential trade setup, the table's background lights up green or red, respectively.
🟡 Volume Spikes
➤This feature highlights bars with significantly higher volume than the recent average, coloring them yellow on the chart to draw attention to intense market activity.
➤It uses the Z-Score method to detect volume anomalies. Current volume is compared to a 10-bar Simple Moving Average (SMA) and the standard deviation of volume over the same period. If the Z-Score exceeds a certain threshold, the bar is marked as a volume spike.
🟡 Divergences (Volume Divergence Detection)
➤ This feature marks divergences between price and technical indicators on the chart, using diamond-shaped labels (green for bullish divergences, red for bearish divergences) to signal potential trend reversals.
➤ It compares price deviations from a Simple Moving Average (SMA) with deviations of three indicators: Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), Money Flow Index (MFI), and On-Balance Volume (OBV). A bullish divergence occurs when price falls below its average, but CMF, MFI, and OBV rise above their averages, indicating hidden accumulation. A bearish divergence occurs when price rises above its average, but CMF, MFI, and OBV fall, suggesting distribution. The length of the moving averages is adjustable (default 13/10/5 bars for Scalping/Balanced/Swing), and detection thresholds are scaled by "Divergence Sensitivity" (default 1.0).
🟡 Adaptive Stop-Loss (ATR)
➤Draws dynamic stop-loss lines (red, dashed) on the chart for buy or sell signals, helping traders manage risk.Uses the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate stop-loss levels, set at low/high ± ATR × multiplier
🟡 Alerts for trend direction changes in the Info Panel:
➤ Triggers notifications when the trend shifts to Bullish (when +DI crosses above -DI) or Bearish (when +DI crosses below -DI), helping you stay informed about key market shifts.
How to use: Set alerts in Trading View for “Trend Changed to Bullish” or “Trend Changed to Bearish” with “Once Per Bar Close” for reliable signals.
🟡 Settings (Inputs)
➤ The indicator offers customizable settings to fit your trading style, but it's already optimized for Scalping (1m–15m), Balanced (16m–3h59m), and Swing (4h–Daily) modes, which automatically adjust based on the selected timeframe. The visible inputs allow you to adjust the following parameters:
Show Info Panel: Enables/disables the information panel (default: enabled).
Show Volume Spikes: Turns on/off coloring for volume spike bars (default: enabled).
Spike Sensitivity: Controls the Z-Score threshold for detecting volume spikes (default: 2.0; lower values increase signal frequency).
Show Divergence: Enables/disables the display of divergence labels (default: enabled).
Divergence Sensitivity: Adjusts the thresholds for divergence detection (default: 1.0; higher values reduce sensitivity).
Divergence Lookback Length: Sets the length of the moving averages used for divergences (default: 5, automatically adjusted to 13/10/5 for Scalping/Balanced/Swing).
RVOL Reference Period: Defines the reference period for relative volume (default: 20, automatically adjusted to 7/15/20).
RSI Length: Sets the RSI length (default: 14, automatically adjusted to 5/10/14).
Buy Sensitivity: Controls the increase threshold for Buying Pressure signals (default: 0.007; higher values reduce frequency).
Sell Sensitivity: Controls the decrease threshold for Selling Pressure signals (default: 0.007; higher values reduce frequency).
Volume Multiplier (B/S Pressure): Adjusts the volume threshold for Smart Flow signals (default: 0.6; higher values require greater volume).
🟡 This indicator is created to simplify market analysis, but I am not a professional in Pine Script or technical indicators. This indicator is not a standalone solution. For optimal results, it must be integrated into a well-defined trading strategy that includes risk management and other confirmations.
Perp R/R Toolcalculate lot size and automatically plot SL and TP and entry for quicker execution when scalping. SL is currently set to high of candle for shorts and low of candle for longs +1 ATR. can change ATR, risk per trade and r/r ratio in settings. change trade direction to show info for long, short or both.
EMA SuiteFor strategies with moving averages, of course. My preference is to use Fibonacci values, but it can be configured with any setup. When working on a single timeframe, it allows adding averages or groups of averages from other timeframes, I’ve used this for scalping. The indicator is designed to be dynamic and adaptable. By editing the script, it’s easy to add or remove averages.
Larger averages might slow down loading, and a color palette selector could be added since manually setting 11 values is tedious.
I’m open to any suggestions
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.

Strategy Components
1. Core Signal Logic (High-Speed Momentum)
The strategy’s engine is a momentum-based system using fast and slow Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), now tuned for faster, more frequent trades.
How It Works:
Fast/Slow EMAs: Fast EMA (Aggressive: 5, Balanced: 7, Conservative: 9 bars) and slow EMA (12/14/18 bars) track short-term vs. longer-term momentum.
Crossover Signals:
Buy: Fast EMA crosses above slow EMA, and trend_dir = 1 (fast EMA > slow EMA + ATR * strength threshold).
Sell: Fast EMA crosses below slow EMA, and trend_dir = -1 (fast EMA < slow EMA - ATR * strength threshold).
Strength Filter: ma_strength = fast EMA - slow EMA must exceed an ATR-scaled threshold (Aggressive: 0.15, Balanced: 0.18, Conservative: 0.25) for robust signals.
Trend Direction: trend_dir confirms momentum, filtering out weak crossovers in choppy markets.
Evolution:
Faster EMAs (down from 7–10/21–50) catch short-term trends, perfect for active futures markets.
Lower strength thresholds (0.15–0.25 vs. 0.3–0.5) make signals more sensitive, boosting trade frequency without sacrificing quality.
Preset tuning ensures beginners get optimized settings, while pros can tweak via mode selection.
2. Market Sentiment Filters
The strategy leans hard into market sentiment with a VIX filter, SPX trend analysis, and sector breadth visuals, keeping trades aligned with the big picture.
VIX Filter:
Logic: Blocks long entries if VIX > threshold (default: 20, can_long = vix_close < vix_limit). Shorts are always allowed (can_short = true).
Impact: Prevents longs during high-fear markets (e.g., VIX spikes in crashes), while allowing shorts to capitalize on downturns.
SPX Trend Filter:
Logic: Compares S&P 500 (SPX) close to its SMA (Aggressive: 5, Balanced: 8, Conservative: 12 bars). spx_trend = 1 (UP) if close > SMA, -1 (DOWN) if < SMA, 0 (FLAT) if neutral.
Impact: Provides dashboard context, encouraging trades that align with market direction (e.g., longs in UP trend).
Sector Breadth (Visual):
Logic: Tracks 10 sector ETFs (XLK, XLF, XLE, etc.) vs. their SMAs (same lengths as SPX). Each sector scores +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral), summed as breadth (-10 to +10).
Display: Green background if breadth > 4, red if breadth < -4, else neutral. Dashboard shows sector trends (↑/↓/-).
Impact: Faster SMA lengths make breadth more responsive, reflecting sector rotations (e.g., tech surging, energy lagging).
Why It’s Brilliant:
- VIX filter adds pro-level volatility awareness, saving beginners from panic-driven losses.
- SPX and sector breadth give a 360° view of market health, boosting signal confidence (e.g., green BG + buy signal = high-probability trade).
- Shorter SMAs make sentiment visuals react faster, perfect for 5min charts.
3. Risk Management
The risk controls are a fortress, now tighter and more dynamic to support frequent trading while keeping accounts safe.
Preset-Based Risk:
Aggressive: Fast EMAs (5/12), tight stops (1.1x ATR), 1-bar cooldown. High trade frequency, higher risk.
Balanced: EMAs (7/14), 1.2x ATR stops, 1-bar cooldown. Versatile for most traders.
Conservative: EMAs (9/18), 1.3x ATR stops, 2-bar cooldown. Safer, fewer trades.
Impact: Auto-scales risk to match style, making it foolproof for beginners.
Adaptive Stops and Take-Profits:
Logic: Stops = entry ± ATR * atr_mult (1.1–1.3x, down from 1.2–2.0x). Take-profits = entry ± ATR * take_mult (2x stop distance, 2:1 reward/risk). Longs: stop below entry, TP above; shorts: vice versa.
Impact: Tighter stops increase trade turnover while maintaining solid risk/reward, adapting to volatility.
Trade Cooldown:
Logic: Preset-driven (Aggressive/Balanced: 1 bar, Conservative: 2 bars vs. old user-input 2). Ensures bar_index - last_trade_bar >= cooldown.
Impact: Faster cooldowns (especially Aggressive/Balanced) allow more trades, balanced by VIX and strength filters.
Contract Sizing:
Logic: User sets contracts (default: 1, max: 10), no preset cap (unlike old 7/5/3 suggestion).
Impact: Flexible but risks over-leverage; beginners should stick to low contracts.
Built To Be Reliable and Consistent:
- Tighter stops and faster cooldowns make it a high-octane system without blowing up accounts.
- Preset-driven risk removes guesswork, letting newbies trade confidently.
- 2:1 TPs ensure profitable trades outweigh losses, even in volatile sessions like April 27, 2025 ES slippage.
4. Trade Entry and Exit Logic
The entry/exit rules are simple yet razor-sharp, now with VIX filtering and faster signals:
Entry Conditions:
Long Entry: buy_signal (fast EMA crosses above slow EMA, trend_dir = 1), no position (strategy.position_size = 0), cooldown passed (can_trade), and VIX < 20 (can_long). Enters with user-defined contracts.
Short Entry: sell_signal (fast EMA crosses below slow EMA, trend_dir = -1), no position, cooldown passed, can_short (always true).
Logic: Tracks last_entry_bar for visuals, last_trade_bar for cooldowns.
Exit Conditions:
Stop-Loss/Take-Profit: ATR-based stops (1.1–1.3x) and TPs (2x stop distance). Longs exit if price hits stop (below) or TP (above); shorts vice versa.
No Other Exits: Keeps it straightforward, relying on stops/TPs.
5. DAFE Visuals
The visuals are pure DAFE magic, blending clean function with informative metrics utilized by professionals, now enhanced by faster signals and a responsive breadth background:
EMA Plots:
Display: Fast EMA (blue, 2px), slow EMA (orange, 2px), using faster lengths (5–9/12–18).
Purpose: Highlights momentum shifts, with crossovers signaling entries.
Sector Breadth Background:
Display: Green (90% transparent) if breadth > 4, red (90%) if breadth < -4, else neutral.
Purpose: Faster breadth_sma_len (5–12 vs. 10–50) reflects sector shifts in real-time, reinforcing signal strength.
- Visuals are intuitive, turning complex signals into clear buy/sell cues.
- Faster breadth background reacts to market rotations (e.g., tech vs. energy), giving a pro-level edge.
6. Sector Breadth Dashboard
The new bottom-left dashboard is a game-changer, a 3x16 table (black/gray theme) that’s your market command center:
Metrics:
VIX: Current VIX (red if > 20, gray if not).
SPX: Trend as “UP” (green), “DOWN” (red), or “FLAT” (gray).
Trade Longs: “OK” (green) if VIX < 20, “BLOCK” (red) if not.
Sector Breadth: 10 sectors (Tech, Financial, etc.) with trend arrows (↑ green, ↓ red, - gray).
Placeholder Row: Empty for future metrics (e.g., ATR, breadth score).
Purpose: Consolidates regime, volatility, market trend, and sector data, making decisions a breeze.
- VIX and SPX metrics add context, helping beginners avoid bad trades (e.g., no longs if “BLOCK”).
Sector arrows show market health at a glance, like a cheat code for sentiment.
Key Features
Beginner-Ready: Preset modes and clear visuals make futures trading a breeze.
Sentiment-Driven: VIX filter, SPX trend, and sector breadth keep you in sync with the market.

SynchroTrend Oscillator (STO) [PhenLabs]📊 SynchroTrend Oscillator
Version: PineScript™ v5
📌 Description
The SynchroTrend Oscillator (STO) is a multi-timeframe synchronization tool that combines trend information from three distinct timeframes into a single, easy-to-interpret oscillator ranging from -100 to +100.
This indicator solves the common problem of having to analyze multiple timeframe charts separately by consolidating trend direction and strength across different time horizons. The STO helps traders identify when markets are truly synchronized across timeframes, potentially indicating stronger trend conditions and higher probability trading opportunities.
Using either Moving Average crossovers or RSI analysis as the trend definition metric, the STO provides a comprehensive view of market structure that adapts to various trading strategies and market conditions.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Triple-timeframe synchronization in a single view eliminates chart switching
Dual trend detection methods (MA vs Price or RSI) for flexibility across different markets
Dynamic color intensity that automatically increases with signal strength
Scaled oscillator format (-100 to +100) for intuitive trend strength interpretation
Customizable signal thresholds to match your risk tolerance and trading style
Visual alerts when markets reach full synchronization states
🔧 Core Components
Trend Scoring System: Calculates a binary score (+1, -1, or 0) for each timeframe based on selected metrics, providing clear trend direction
Multi-Timeframe Synchronization: Combines and scales trend scores from all three timeframes into a single oscillator
Dynamic Visualization: Adjusts color transparency based on signal strength, creating an intuitive visual guide
Threshold System: Provides customizable levels for identifying potentially significant trading opportunities

Transparency Range: Control how transparency changes with signal strength
Line Width: Adjust oscillator line thickness
Buy/Sell Thresholds: Set levels for potential entry/exit signals
✅ Best Use Cases
Trend confirmation across multiple timeframes
Finding high-probability entry points when all timeframes align
Early detection of potential trend reversals
Filtering trade signals from other indicators
Market structure analysis
Identifying potential divergences between timeframes
⚠️ Limitations
Like all indicators, can produce false signals during choppy or ranging markets
Works best in trending market conditions
Should not be used in isolation for trading decisions
Past performance is not indicative of future results
May require different settings for different markets or instruments
💡 What Makes This Unique
Combines three timeframes in a single visualization without requiring multiple chart windows
Dynamic transparency feature that automatically emphasizes stronger signals
Flexible trend definition methods suitable for different market conditions
Visual system that makes multi-timeframe analysis intuitive and accessible
🔬 How It Works
1. Trend Evaluation:
For each timeframe, the indicator calculates a trend score (+1, -1, or 0) using either:
MA vs Price: Comparing close price to a moving average
RSI: Determining if RSI is above or below 50
2. Score Aggregation:
The three trend scores are combined and then scaled to a range of -100 to +100
A value of +100 indicates all timeframes show bullish conditions
A value of -100 indicates all timeframes show bearish conditions
Values in between indicate varying degrees of alignment
3. Signal Processing:
The raw oscillator value can be smoothed using EMA, SMA, or left unsmoothed
The final value determines line color, fill color, and transparency settings
Threshold levels are applied to identify potential trading opportunities
💡 Note:
The SynchroTrend Oscillator is most effective when used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy that includes proper risk management techniques. For best results, consider using the oscillator in conjunction with support/resistance levels, price action analysis, and other complementary indicators that align with your trading style.
