Autofib Extensions | DTDHello trader comuunity!
I'm introducing another script that is part of my main day-trading strategy. We all know regardless of what strategy we use, we need to know what levels offer the least amount of risk to our trade entry and a great tool to anticipate how far a move might go or what level a move may retrace to are the Fibonacci Retracement and Extensions. This indicator combines both together, but with a twist.
The main elements of the script are:
1. Multiple Session High and Lows | Developing my first script led me to understand that measuring key times during each session provides understanding of the market's continuity. I have provided 3 "sessions' a user can define according to CST time where the script saves the high and low of that session window to produce the retracement and extensions from those plots. Currently, the levels are always plotted from low to high (with the 0 mark being the high) and negative values provided so the levels are consistent. You can toggle each session on or off.
2. Coloring Key Retracements / Extensions | I use a dark background for my charts so the default colors help me distinguish from other another indicator I use. Feel free to adjust the colors to your preference. I consider 3 different colors because of their significance. Retracements that you want to see continue fall back into the .50 to .618 level (this I consider the "Golden Zone"). While basic Elliott Wave Theory states a wave is completed near the 1.618 level (this I consider "Major Extensions"). Everything isn't noise, but minor levels in a larger sequence.
______________
Script Limitations
All of my scripts are made with the help of ChatGPT so there are going to be limitations. One current one that I have made progress on, but not fully is when you are viewing a timeframe where the candle doesn't start when a session window starts. On smaller timeframes like the 7-minute this is not an issue. However, on the hourly, if your session window starts at the half hour which the 3rd session default window does, the lines will not produce. I will hopefully have this rectified in the near future. I will open the script since none of this work is original in nature and I would love to see how others can create a better product. Also, this is mainly a futures trading tool. If you are using this on stocks you will find it not as useful if the session window is too wide since the script waits until the session window closes to calculate the extension values.
Cheers,
DTD

TimeMapTimeMap is a visual price-reference indicator designed to help traders rapidly visualize how current price levels relate to significant historical closing prices. It overlays your chart with reference lines representing past weekly, monthly, quarterly (3-month), semi-annual (6-month), and annual closing prices. By clearly plotting these historical price references, TimeMap helps traders quickly gauge price position relative to historical market structure, aiding in the identification of trends, support/resistance levels, and potential reversals.
How it Works:
The indicator calculates the precise number of historical bars corresponding to weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual intervals, dynamically adjusting according to your chart’s timeframe (intraday, daily, weekly, monthly) and chosen market type (Stocks US, Crypto, Forex, or Futures). Historical closing prices from these periods are plotted directly on your chart as horizontal reference lines.
For intraday traders, the script accurately calculates historical offsets considering regular and extended trading sessions (e.g., pre-market and after-hours sessions for US stocks), ensuring correct positioning of historical lines.
User-Configurable Inputs Explained in Detail:
Market Type:
Allows you to specify your trading instrument type, automatically adjusting calculations for:
- Stocks US (default): 390 minutes per regular session (780 minutes if extended hours enabled), 5 trading days/week.
- Crypto: 1440 minutes/day, 7 trading days/week.
- Forex: 1440 minutes/day, 5 trading days/week.
- Futures: 1320 minutes/day, 5 trading days/week.
Show Weekly Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from one week ago. Provides short-term context and helps identify recent price momentum.
Show Monthly Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from one month ago. Helpful for evaluating medium-term price positioning and monthly trend strength.
Show 3-Month Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from three months ago. Useful for assessing quarterly market shifts, intermediate trend changes, and broader market sentiment.
Show 6-Month Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from six months ago. Useful for identifying semi-annual trends, significant price pivots, and longer-term support/resistance levels.
Show 1-Year Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from one year ago. Excellent for assessing long-term market direction and key annual price levels.
Enable Smoothing:
Activates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) smoothing of historical reference lines, reducing volatility and providing clearer visual references. Recommended for traders preferring less volatile reference levels.
Smoothing Length:
Determines the number of bars used in calculating the SMA smoothing of historical lines. Higher values result in smoother but slightly delayed reference lines; lower values offer more immediate yet more volatile levels.
Use Extended Hours (Intraday Only):
When enabled (only applicable for Stocks US), it accounts for pre-market and after-hours trading sessions, providing accurate intraday historical line calculations based on extended sessions (typically 780 minutes/day total).
Important Notes and Compliance:
- This indicator does not provide trading signals, recommendations, or predictions. It serves purely as a visual analytical tool to supplement traders’ existing methods.
- Historical lines plotted are strictly based on past available price data; the indicator never accesses future data or data outside the scope of Pine Script’s standard capabilities.
- The script incorporates built-in logic to avoid runtime errors if insufficient historical data exists for a selected timeframe, ensuring robustness even with limited historical bars.
- TimeMap is original work developed exclusively by Julien Eche (@Julien_Eche). It does not reuse or replicate third-party or existing open-source scripts.
Recommended Best Practices:
- Use TimeMap as a complementary analytical reference, not as a standalone strategy or trade decision-making tool.
- Adapt displayed historical periods and smoothing settings based on your trading style and market approach.
- Default plot colors are optimized for readability on dark-background charts; adjust as necessary according to your preference and chart color scheme.
This script is published open-source to benefit the entire TradingView community and fully complies with all TradingView script publishing rules and guidelines.
Opening Range BoxIndicator Name: Opening Range Box with Extensions
Author: YanivBull
Description:
The Opening Range Box with Extensions is a powerful tool designed to visualize the trading range established during the first 30 minutes of a market session, a critical period for setting the day's trend. This indicator plots a box representing the high and low prices formed within this opening range, with dashed extension lines projecting these levels forward throughout the session.
Its primary purpose is to identify the boundaries of the initial trend at the start of trading. When these boundaries are breached, it serves as a trigger for potential trading opportunities: a breakout above the box high signals a possible long entry, while a breakdown below the box low indicates a potential short entry. The indicator also includes historical boxes for up to 5 previous days (configurable), allowing traders to analyze past opening ranges and their extensions for context and pattern recognition.
Key Features:
Customizable session start time (hour and minute) to adapt to various markets (e.g., NYSE, DAX, etc.).
Displays the current session's opening range box in blue and historical boxes in gray.
Plots dashed extension lines from the high and low of each box, limited to 500 bars or the end of the trading day.
Adjustable number of historical days (1-20, default 5).
Usage:
Set the Session Start Hour and Session Start Minute according to your market's opening time (relative to your chart's timezone, e.g., UTC+2). Watch for price action around the box boundaries—breakouts above the high or below the low can be used as signals for initiating long or short trades, respectively. Combine with other technical analysis tools for confirmation.
This indicator is ideal for day traders looking to capitalize on early session momentum and breakout strategies.
Twitter Model ICT [TradingFinder] MMXM ERL D + FVG + M15 MSS/SMT🔵 Introduction
The Twitter Model ICT is a trading approach based on ICT (Inner Circle Trader) models, focusing on price movement between external and internal liquidity in lower timeframes. This model integrates key concepts such as Market Structure Shift (MSS), Smart Money Technique (SMT) divergence, and CISD level break to identify precise entry points in the market.
The primary goal of this model is to determine key liquidity levels, such as the previous day’s high and low (PDH/PDL) and align them with the Fair Value Gap (FVG) in the 1-hour timeframe. The overall strategy involves framing trades around the 1H FVG and using the M15 Market Structure Shift (MSS) for entry confirmation.
The Twitter Model ICT is designed to utilize external liquidity levels, such as PDH/PDL, as key entry zones. The model identifies FVG in the 1-hour timeframe, which acts as a magnet for price movement. Additionally, traders confirm entries using M15 Market Structure Shift (MSS) and SMT divergence.
Bullish Twitter Model :
In a bullish setup, the price sweeps the previous day’s low (PDL), and after confirming reversal signals, buys are executed in internal liquidity zones. Conversely, in a bearish setup, the price sweeps the previous day’s high (PDH), and after confirming weakness signals, sells are executed.
Bearish Twitter Model :
In short setups, entries are only executed above the Midnight Open, while in long setups, entries are taken below the Midnight Open. Adhering to these principles allows traders to define precise entry and exit points and analyze price movement with greater accuracy based on liquidity and market structure.
🔵 How to Use
The Twitter Model ICT is a liquidity-based trading strategy that analyzes price movements relative to the previous day’s high and low (PDH/PDL) and Fair Value Gap (FVG). This model is applicable in both bullish and bearish directions and utilizes the 1-hour (1H) and 15-minute (M15) timeframes for entry confirmation.
The price first sweeps an external liquidity level (PDH or PDL) and then provides an entry opportunity based on Market Structure Shift (MSS) and SMT divergence. Additionally, the entry should be positioned relative to the Midnight Open, meaning long entries should occur below the Midnight Open and short entries above it.
🟣 Bullish Twitter Model
In a bullish setup, the price first sweeps the previous day’s low (PDL) and reaches an external liquidity level. Then, in the 1-hour timeframe (1H), a bullish Fair Value Gap (FVG) forms, which serves as the price target.
To confirm the entry, a Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the 15-minute timeframe (M15) should be observed, signaling a trend reversal to the upside. Additionally, SMT divergence with correlated assets can indicate weakness in selling pressure.
Under these conditions, a long position is taken below the Midnight Open, with a stop-loss placed at the lowest point of the recent bearish move. The price target for this trade is the FVG in the 1-hour timeframe.
🟣 Bearish Twitter Model
In a bearish setup, the price first sweeps the previous day’s high (PDH) and reaches an external liquidity level. Then, in the 1-hour timeframe (1H), a bearish Fair Value Gap (FVG) is identified, serving as the trade target.
To confirm entry, a Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the 15-minute timeframe (M15) should form, signaling a trend shift to the downside. If an SMT divergence is present, it can provide additional confirmation for the trade.
Once these conditions are met, a short position is taken above the Midnight Open, with a stop-loss placed at the highest level of the recent bullish move. The trade's price target is the FVG in the 1-hour timeframe.
🔵 Settings
Bar Back Check : Determining the return of candles to identify the CISD level.
CISD Level Validity : CISD level validity period based on the number of candles.
Daily Position : Determines whether only the first signal of the day is considered or if signals are evaluated throughout the entire day.

For example, you can choose currency pairs like EUR/USD or GBP/USD to identify divergences between these two assets.
Divergence Fractal Periods : This parameter defines the number of past candles to consider when identifying divergences. The default value is 2, but you can change it to suit your preferences. This setting allows you to detect divergences more accurately by selecting a greater number of candles.
The indicator allows displaying sessions based on various time zones. The user can select one of the following options :
UTC (Coordinated Universal Time)
Local Time of the Session
User’s Local Time
Show Open Price : Displays the New York market opening price.
Show PDH / PDL : Displays the previous day’s high and low to identify potential entry points.
Show SMT Divergence : Displays lines and labels for bullish ("+SMT") and bearish ("-SMT") divergences.
🔵 Conclusion
The Twitter Model ICT is an effective approach for analyzing and executing trades in financial markets, utilizing a combination of liquidity principles, market structure, and SMT confirmations to identify optimal entry and exit points.
By analyzing the previous day’s high and low (PDH/PDL), Fair Value Gaps (FVG), and Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the 1H and M15 timeframes, traders can pinpoint liquidity-driven trade opportunities. Additionally, considering the Midnight Open level helps traders avoid random entries and ensures better trade placement.
By applying this model, traders can interpret market movements based on liquidity flow and structural changes, allowing them to fine-tune their trading decisions with higher precision. Ultimately, the Twitter Model ICT provides a structured and logical approach for traders who seek to trade based on liquidity behavior and trend shifts in the market.

CandelaCharts - Opening Gap (OG) 📝 Overview
The ICT (Inner Circle Trader) Opening Gap represents the price difference between the previous trading session's closing price and the current session's opening price. This gap serves as a key indicator of market sentiment and can offer valuable clues about the market's potential direction throughout the trading day.
A bullish Opening Gap forms when the market opens higher than the previous session's close, signaling strong buying interest or positive sentiment heading into the new session
A bearish Opening Gap occurs when the market opens lower than the previous session's close, reflecting heightened selling pressure or negative sentiment among market participants
The Opening Gap is significant as it often establishes the market's tone for the trading session. Accurately interpreting this gap enables traders to make informed decisions about when to enter or exit positions. Serving as a gauge of market strength or weakness, the gap provides a clear signal of whether the market is likely to trend upward or downward during the day.

How the Indicator Works
Hourly H/L Analysis:
The indicator calculates the highest and lowest prices for each hour in the specified date range.
Each hourly high and low occurrence is recorded and aggregated into a table, with counts displayed for all 24 hours.
Users can toggle the visibility of empty cells (hours with no high/low occurrences) and adjust the table's design to suit their preferences.
Supports both 12-hour (AM/PM) and 24-hour formats.
Weekly H/L DOTW Analysis:
The indicator tracks the highest and lowest prices for each day of the week during the user-specified date range.
Highs and lows are identified for the entire week, and the specific days when they occur are recorded.
Counts for each day are aggregated and displayed in a table, with a "Totals" column summarizing the overall occurrences.
The analysis resets weekly, ensuring accurate tracking of high/low days.
Code Breakdown:
Data Aggregation:
The script uses arrays to store counts of high/low occurrences for both hourly and weekly intervals.
Daily data is fetched using the request.security() function, ensuring consistent results regardless of the chart's timeframe.
Weekly Reset Mechanism:
Weekly high/low values are reset at the start of a new week (Monday) to ensure accurate weekly tracking.
A processing flag ensures that weekly data is counted only once at the end of the week (Sunday).
Table Visualization:
Tables are created using the table.new() function, with customizable styles and positions.
Header rows, data rows, and totals are dynamically populated based on the aggregated data.
User Inputs:
Customization options include text colors, background colors, table positioning, label formatting, and date ranges.
Code Explanation
The script is structured into two main sections:
Hourly H/L Analysis:
This section captures and aggregates high/low occurrences for each hour of the day.
The logic is session-aware, allowing users to define custom session times (e.g., 22-hour futures sessions).
Data is displayed in a clean table format with hourly labels.
Weekly H/L DOTW Analysis:
This section tracks weekly highs and lows by day of the week.
Highs and lows are identified for each week, and counts are updated only once per week to prevent duplication.
A user-friendly table displays the counts for each day of the week, along with totals.
Both sections are completely independent of each other to avoid interference. This ensures that enabling or disabling one section does not impact the functionality of the other.

The Vet [TFO]In collaboration with @mickey1984 , "The Vet" was created to showcase various statistical measures of price.
The first core measurement utilizes the Defining Range (DR) concept on a weekly basis. For example, we might track the session from 09:30-10:30 on Mondays to get the DR high, DR low, IDR high, and IDR low. The DR high and low are the highest high and lowest low of the session, respectively, whereas the IDR high and low would be the highest candle body level (open or close) and lowest candle body level, respectively, during this window of time.
From this data, we use the IDR range (from IDR high to IDR low) to extrapolate several, custom projections of this range from its high and low so that we can collect data on how often these levels are hit, from the close of one DR session to the open of the next one.
This information is displayed in the Range Projection Table with a few main columns of information:
- The leftmost column indicates each level that is projected from the IDR range, where (+) indicates a projection above the range high, and (-) indicates a projection below the range low
- The "First Touch" column indicates how often price has reached these levels in the past at any point until the next weekly DR session
- The "Other Side Touch" column indicates how often price has reached a given level, then reversed to hit the opposing level of the same magnitude. For example, the above chart shows that if price hit the +1 projection, ~33% of instances also hit the -1 projection before the next weekly DR session. For this reason, the probabilities will be the same for projection levels of the same but opposite magnitude (+1 would be the same as -1, +3 would be the same as -3, etc.)
- The "Next Level Touch" column provides insight into how often price reaches the next greatest projection level. For example, in the above chart, the red box in the projection table is highlighting that once price hits the -2 projection, ~86% of instances reached the -3 projection before the next weekly DR session
- The last columns, "Within ADR" and "Within AWR" show if any of the projection levels are within the current Average Daily Range, or Average Weekly Range, respectively, which can both be enabled from the Average Range section
The next section, Distributions, primarily measures and displays the average price movements from specified intraday time windows. The option to Show Distribution Boxes will overlay a box showing each respective session's average range, while adjusting itself to encapsulate the price action of that session until the average range is met/exceeded. Users can choose to display the range average by Day of Week, or the Total average from all days. Values for average ranges can either be shown as point or percent values. We can also show a table to display this information about price's average ranges for each given session, and show labels displaying the current range vs its average.
The final section, Average Range, simply offers the ability to plot the Average Daily Range (ADR) and Average Weekly Range (AWR) of a specified length. An ADR of 10 for example would take the average of the last 10 days, from high to low, while an AWR of 10 would take the average of the last 10 weeks (if the current chart provides enough data to support this). Similarly, we can also show the Average Range Table to indicate what these ADR/AWR values are, what our current range is and how it compares to those values, as well as some simple statistics on how often these levels are hit. As an example, "Hit +/- ADR: 40%/35%" in this table would indicate that price has hit the upper ADR limit 40% of the time, and the lower limit 35% of the time, for the amount of data available on the current chart.
First 5-Minute ORB Levels with Hour Offset### Indicator Overview: First 5-Minute ORB Levels with Hour Offset
This indicator is designed for traders who want to track the high and low of the first 5-minute candle of a trading session, specifically starting at 9:30 am EST (New York time) by default. The lines representing these levels, known as the "Opening Range Breakout" (ORB) levels, are extended across the trading session until the market close at 4:00 pm EST. The indicator provides the following features:
1. **Real-Time Updates**:
- As the first 5-minute candle of the session forms (from 9:30 am to 9:35 am EST), the indicator dynamically updates the high and low lines.
- After the candle completes, the lines are locked in place and extend horizontally across the chart until market close.
2. **Customizable Hour Offset**:
- Users can adjust the start time of the session by specifying an hour offset. This feature is particularly useful for traders operating in different time zones or those who want to analyze custom session times.
- For example, if you trade in a time zone where the session starts at 8:30 am local time instead of 9:30 am EST, you can set the hour offset to `-1` to adjust the start time accordingly.
3. **Visual Labels**:
- The indicator places labels at the end of the lines, clearly marking the "5m ORB High" and "5m ORB Low" levels. These labels are updated in real-time as the first 5-minute candle forms and are fixed in place once the candle closes.
### How to Adjust the Settings:
1. **Hour Offset**:
- **Description**: The hour offset allows you to shift the start time of the session. The default start time is 9:30 am EST, but you can change this using the hour offset.
- **How to Adjust**:
- Open the indicator settings.
- Locate the "Hour Offset" field.
- Enter a positive or negative integer value to shift the session start time.
- **Example**:
- `0` (default): Start at 9:30 am EST.
- `-1`: Start at 8:30 am EST.
- `+1`: Start at 10:30 am EST.
- The indicator will then track the first 5-minute candle starting at the adjusted time and plot the high and low accordingly.
2. **Line and Label Appearance**:
- The lines representing the ORB levels are green by default, and the labels are also green with white text for clear visibility on the chart. The labels are positioned to the right of the lines to avoid cluttering the chart.
### Use Cases:
- **Opening Range Breakout Strategy**: Traders often use the ORB strategy to identify potential breakout points during the trading day. By marking the high and low of the first 5-minute candle, this indicator helps traders quickly identify key levels where price might break out or reverse.
- **Custom Session Analysis**: If you trade in a different time zone or need to analyze a different session (e.g., pre-market or after-hours), the hour offset feature allows you to adapt the indicator to your needs.
This indicator is particularly valuable for intraday traders who rely on the initial volatility of the trading session to make informed decisions.
Opening Range 5 Min LinesOpening Range Lines Indicator
The Opening Range Lines indicator, abbreviated as "OR Lines," is a tool designed to visualize the price range established during the initial moments of a trading session. It helps traders identify significant levels of support and resistance based on the price action during the opening minutes of the session.
Features:
Customizable Timeframe: Traders can specify the duration of the opening range, typically within the first few minutes of the trading session, using the input parameter.
High and Low Lines: The indicator plots two lines on the chart representing the highest and lowest prices reached during the defined opening range period.
Color-Coded Visualization: The opening range high and low lines are color-coded for easy identification. The high line is typically displayed in green, while the low line is displayed in red.
Usage:
Support and Resistance: Traders often use the opening range lines as dynamic support and resistance levels. Prices that breach the opening range high or low may indicate potential breakout or breakdown opportunities.
Intraday Trading: Day traders can utilize the opening range lines to establish intraday trading strategies. For example, buying when the price exceeds the opening range high and selling when it falls below the opening range low.
Confirmation Tool: The opening range lines can also serve as confirmation tools for other technical indicators or trading signals. A bullish signal accompanied by a breakout above the opening range high may reinforce a buy signal, while a bearish signal combined with a breakdown below the opening range low may strengthen a sell signal.
Notes:
Extended Hours Trading: To accurately display the opening range lines for stocks or ETFs, users should enable extended hours trading on their chart settings.
Customization: Traders can adjust the timeframe and appearance settings of the indicator to suit their specific trading preferences and market conditions.
The Opening Range Lines indicator provides traders with valuable insights into the early price dynamics of a trading session, aiding in decision-making and trade management during intraday trading activities.
High Volume AlertThe High Volume Alert Script is developed for all traders focusing on volume analysis in their trading strategies, providing alerts for unusually high trading volumes during specified trading sessions.
Functionality:
Volume Moving Average Calculation:
Average Volume = Moving Average(Volume) = Sum of last the x last candles Volume
Where n is the user-defined period for the moving average calculation (denoted as movingaverageinput in the script. This moving average serves as the baseline to compare current volume levels against historical averages.
High Volume Detection:
HighVolume = CurrentVolume >= (MA(Volume) x HighVolumeRatio)
Here, HighVolumeRatio is a user-defined multiplier that sets the threshold for what is considered high volume. If the current volume exceeds this threshold (the product of the moving average of volume and the HighVolumeRatio ), the script identifies this as a high-volume event.
Session Filtering:
The script further refines these alerts by ensuring they only trigger during the specified trading session, enhancing relevance for traders interested in specific market hours. This session is defined by the sess and timezone parameters.
Visualisation and Alerts:
If high volume is detected (HighVolume = True), the script colors the volume bar with the highVolumeColor . If the option is selected, it also changes the color of the candlestick to either highVolumeCandleColorUp (for bullish candles) or highVolumeCandleColorDown (for bearish candles), depending on the price movement within the high-volume period. An alert is generated through the alertcondition function when high volume is detected during the specified session, notifying the trader of potentially significant market activity.
Application in Trading:
This indicator serves traders who prioritize volume as a leading indicator of potential price movement. High trading volumes may indicate the presence of significant market activity, often associated with events like news releases, market openings, or large trades, which can precede price movements.
Originality and Practicality:
This script is self-developed, aiming to fill the gap in automatic ratio adjusted volume alerts within the TradingView environment.
Conclusion:
The High Volume Alert Script is an essential tool for traders who integrate volume analysis into their strategy, offering tailored alerts and visual cues for high volume periods.
Compliance and Limitations:
The script complies with TradingView scripting standards, ensuring no lookahead bias and maintaining real-time data integrity. However, its utility depends on the availability on volume data, and please be aware that forex pairs never offer real volume data, this tool is best used with a exchange traded symbol.
SMC Fake Zones + InsideBarThis indicator is useful for whom trade with "Smart Money Concept (SMC)" strategy.
It helps SMD traders to identify fake or weak zones in the chart, So they can avoid taking position in this zones.
This indicator marks "Asia session" as well as "London and New York's Lunch Time (one hour before London and NY session starts)" zones.
It also marks Inside Bar candles which SMC trades consider as order flow. You can mark every Inside Bar or only those with opposite color via setting options.
*** As we know in SMC rules
1- Supply and Demand zones in "Asia session and Lunch Times" are fake zones for SMC trading and price will engulf them in most of times.
2- "Asia session high and low" has huge liquidity and usually price sweep that in London session.
This indicator will helps traders to visually identify those Fake zones and Asia session liquidity.
* You can change session times based on your time zone in settings.
* You can set options to show all Inside Bars or only with Opposite color in settings.
Michigandolf's 30min Opening RangeThis script plots the 30min Opening Range as well as the previous day's high & low.
Description:
Blue Line = Top of the 30min Opening Range for the session
Pink Line = Bottom of the 30min Opening Range for the session
White Line = Mid-Point of the 30min Opening Range for the session
White Transparent Area = The full range of the 30min Opening Range
Green Line = Yesterday's High for the session
Red Line = Yesterday's Low for the session
Use:
The Opening Range will continue to expand until the first 30minutes of trading has passed, at which point the range will lock in place for the remainder of the trading session. Many traders use these important levels to gauge trade entries and exits (e.g. Mark Fisher's ACD strategy).
This script does not work currently work for futures (e.g. ES, NQ, RTY) due to the session start time. Will configure for futures trading in a future update.
[RickAtw] O1 Opening Market LineThis indicator helps to identify current support and resistance based on the opening of the Asian, London and New York sessions.
Function
You can make good trade entries based on these lines. Shows daily and weekly openings of each session
It will also help you to look at which session you are currently trading)
Purple ----> Asian session
Red ----> London session
Blue ----> New York session
Key Signal
buy ---> A strong buy signal is a bounce from the low and the presence of a weekly or day open line.
sell ---> A strong sell signal is a bounce from the maximum and the presence of a weekly or day open line.
P.S. Be sure to test on your pair!
Remarks
This will help you determine the approximate area of support and resistance.
Since we cannot look into the future, it does not inform you about the exact records, but a possible change in trends.

MA Streak Can Show When a Run Is Getting Long in the ToothMoving averages are one of the most common indicators in the world of technical analysis. And they’re often the ingredients of more complex indicators like MACD.
Today’s script shows how long prices have been moving in a given direction. Similar to our earlier Price Streak script, MA Streak counts the number of sessions that the average is rising or falling. It then plots the result in green (positive, rising) or red (negative, falling).
Because it uses a moving average instead of individual candles, this smooths out short-term noise to illustrate how long prices have been moving in a given direction.
Users can designate which price value (open, high, low, etc) to use under the Source input. They can also chose one of five moving average types. (See the code for a complete guide.)
Today’s chart shows that the S&P 500’s 10-day simple moving average (SMA) has been rising for 36 sessions. It’s the longest upside run since March 2019. Given the fact that the index is flirting with its pre-Covid highs, MA Streak may suggest the current rally is getting long in the tooth.
It's also noteworthy that the coronavirus correction in February and March saw the 10-day SMA drop for 24 straight sessions, which was its longest decline since June 2010.
Sim PackThis is a custom indicator that includes the following:
EMA's 50, 100 and 200
SMA 20
Moving average cross support and resistance levels
Colored bars associated with 4-hour AM sessions for Asia, UK, and US
1-hour alerts prior to AM sessions
Plots of previous AM session close during current AM session

DYNAMIC TRADING DASHBOARDStudy Material for the "Dynamic Trading Dashboard"
This Dynamic Trading Dashboard is designed as an educational tool within the TradingView environment. It compiles commonly used market indicators and analytical methods into one visual interface so that traders and learners can see relationships between indicators and price action. Understanding these indicators, step by step, can help traders develop discipline, improve technical analysis skills, and build strategies. Below is a detailed explanation of each module.
________________________________________
1. Price and Daily Reference Points
The dashboard displays the current price, along with percentage change compared to the day’s opening price. It also highlights whether the price is moving upward or downward using directional symbols. Alongside, it tracks daily high, low, open, and daily range.
For traders, daily levels provide valuable reference points. The daily high and low are considered intraday support and resistance, while the median price of the day often acts as a pivot level for mean reversion traders. Monitoring these helps learners see how price oscillates within daily ranges.
________________________________________
2. VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
VWAP is calculated as a cumulative average price weighted by volume. The dashboard compares the current price with VWAP, showing whether the market is trading above or below it.
For traders, VWAP is often a guide for institutional order flow. Price trading above VWAP suggests bullish sentiment, while trading below VWAP indicates bearish sentiment. Learners can use VWAP as a training tool to recognize trend-following vs. mean reversion setups.
________________________________________
3. Volume Analysis
The system distinguishes between buy volume (when the closing price is higher than the open) and sell volume (when the closing price is lower than the open). A progress bar highlights the ratio of buying vs. selling activity in percentage.
This is useful because volume confirms price action. For instance, if prices rise but sell volume dominates, it can signal weakness. New traders learning with this tool should focus on how volume often precedes price reversals and trends.
________________________________________
4. RSI (Relative Strength Index)
RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures price strength on a scale from 0 to 100. The dashboard classifies RSI readings into overbought (>70), oversold (<30), or neutral zones and adds visual progress bars.
RSI helps learners understand momentum shifts. During training, one should notice how trending markets can keep RSI extended for longer periods (not immediate reversal signals), while range-bound markets react more sharply to RSI extremes. It is an excellent tool for practicing trend vs. range identification.
________________________________________
5. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
The MACD indicator involves a fast EMA, slow EMA, and signal line, with focus on crossovers. The dashboard shows whether a “bullish cross” (MACD above signal line) or “bearish cross” (MACD below signal line) has occurred.
MACD teaches traders to identify trend momentum shifts and divergence. During practice, traders can explore how MACD signals align with VWAP trends or RSI levels, which helps in building a structured multi-indicator analysis.
________________________________________
6. Stochastic Oscillator
This indicator compares the current close relative to a range of highs and lows over a period. Displayed values oscillate between 0 and 100, marking zones of overbought (>80) and oversold (<20).
Stochastics are useful for students of trading to recognize short-term momentum changes. Unlike RSI, it reacts faster to price volatility, so false signals are common. Part of the training exercise can be to observe how stochastic “flips” can align with volume surges or daily range endpoints.
________________________________________
7. Trend & Momentum Classification
The dashboard adds simple labels for trend (uptrend, downtrend, neutral) based on RSI thresholds. Additionally, it provides quick momentum classification (“bullish hold”, “bearish hold”, or neutral).
This is beneficial for beginners as it introduces structured thinking: differentiating long-term market bias (trend) from short-term directional momentum. By combining both, traders can practice filtering signals instead of trading randomly.
________________________________________
8. Accumulation / Distribution Bias
Based on RSI levels, the script generates simplified tags such as “Accumulate Long”, “Accumulate Short”, or “Wait”.
This is purely an interpretive guide, helping learners think in terms of accumulation phases (when markets are low) and distribution phases (when markets are high). It reinforces the concept that trading is not only directional but also involves timing.
________________________________________
9. Overall Market Status and Score
Finally, the dashboard compiles multiple indicators (VWAP position, RSI, MACD, Stochastics, and price vs. median levels) into a Market Score expressed as a percentage. It also labels the market as Overbought, Oversold, or Normal.
This scoring system isn’t a recommendation but a learning framework. Students can analyze how combining different indicators improves decision-making. The key training focus here is confluence: not depending on one indicator but observing when several conditions align.
Extended Study Material with Formulas
________________________________________
1. Daily Reference Levels (High, Low, Open, Median, Range)
• Day High (H): Maximum price of the session.
DayHigh=max(Hightoday)DayHigh=max(Hightoday)
• Day Low (L): Minimum price of the session.
DayLow=min(Lowtoday)DayLow=min(Lowtoday)
• Day Open (O): Opening price of the session.
DayOpen=OpentodayDayOpen=Opentoday
• Day Range:
Range=DayHigh−DayLowRange=DayHigh−DayLow
• Median: Mid-point between high and low.
Median=DayHigh+DayLow2Median=2DayHigh+DayLow
These act as intraday guideposts for seeing how far the price has stretched from its key reference levels.
________________________________________
2. VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
VWAP considers both price and volume for a weighted average:
VWAPt=∑i=1t(Pricei×Volumei)∑i=1tVolumeiVWAPt=∑i=1tVolumei∑i=1t(Pricei×Volumei)
Here, Price_i can be the average price (High + Low + Close) ÷ 3, also known as hlc3.
• Interpretation: Price above VWAP = bullish bias; Price below = bearish bias.
________________________________________
3. Volume Buy/Sell Analysis
The dashboard splits total volume into buy volume and sell volume based on candle type.
• Buy Volume:
BuyVol=Volumeif Close > Open, else 0BuyVol=Volumeif Close > Open, else 0
• Sell Volume:
SellVol=Volumeif Close < Open, else 0SellVol=Volumeif Close < Open, else 0
• Buy Ratio (%):
VolumeRatio=BuyVolBuyVol+SellVol×100VolumeRatio=BuyVol+SellVolBuyVol×100
This helps traders gauge who is in control during a session—buyers or sellers.
________________________________________
4. RSI (Relative Strength Index)
RSI measures strength of momentum by comparing gains vs. losses.
Step 1: Compute average gains (AG) and losses (AL).
AG=Average of Upward Closes over N periodsAG=Average of Upward Closes over N periodsAL=Average of Downward Closes over N periodsAL=Average of Downward Closes over N periods
Step 2: Calculate relative strength (RS).
RS=AGALRS=ALAG
Step 3: RSI formula.
RSI=100−1001+RSRSI=100−1+RS100
• Used to detect overbought (>70), oversold (<30), or neutral momentum zones.
________________________________________
5. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
• Fast EMA:
EMAfast=EMA(Close,length=fast)EMAfast=EMA(Close,length=fast)
• Slow EMA:
EMAslow=EMA(Close,length=slow)EMAslow=EMA(Close,length=slow)
• MACD Line:
MACD=EMAfast−EMAslowMACD=EMAfast−EMAslow
• Signal Line:
Signal=EMA(MACD,length=signal)Signal=EMA(MACD,length=signal)
• Histogram:
Histogram=MACD−SignalHistogram=MACD−Signal
Crossovers between MACD and Signal are used in studying bullish/bearish phases.
________________________________________
6. Stochastic Oscillator
Stochastic compares the current close against a range of highs and lows.
%K=Close−LowestLowHighestHigh−LowestLow×100%K=HighestHigh−LowestLowClose−LowestLow×100
Where LowestLow and HighestHigh are the lowest and highest values over N periods.
The %D line is a smooth version of %K (using a moving average).
%D=SMA(%K,smooth)%D=SMA(%K,smooth)
• Values above 80 = overbought; below 20 = oversold.
________________________________________
7. Trend and Momentum Classification
This dashboard generates simplified trend/momentum logic using RSI.
• Trend:
• RSI < 40 → Downtrend
• RSI > 60 → Uptrend
• In Between → Neutral
• Momentum Bias:
• RSI > 70 → Bullish Hold
• RSI < 30 → Bearish Hold
• Otherwise Neutral
This is not predictive, only a classification framework for educational use.
________________________________________
8. Accumulation/Distribution Bias
Based on extreme RSI values:
• RSI < 25 → Accumulate Long Bias
• RSI > 80 → Accumulate Short Bias
• Else → Wait/No Action
This helps learners understand the idea of accumulation at lows (strength building) and distribution at highs (profit booking).
________________________________________
9. Overall Market Status and Score
The tool adds up 5 bullish conditions:
1. Price above VWAP
2. RSI > 50
3. MACD > Signal
4. Stochastic > 50
5. Price above Daily Median
BullishScore=ConditionsMet5×100BullishScore=5ConditionsMet×100
Then it categorizes the market:
• RSI > 70 or Stoch > 80 → Overbought
• RSI < 30 or Stoch < 20 → Oversold
• Else → Normal
This encourages learners to think in terms of probabilistic conditions instead of single-indicator signals.

Intraday Spark Chart [AstrideUnicorn]The Intraday Spark Chart (ISC) is a minimalist yet powerful tool designed to track an asset’s performance relative to its daily opening price. Inspired by Nasdaq's trading-floor analog dashboards, it visualizes intraday percentage changes as a color-coded sparkline, helping traders quickly gauge momentum and session bias.
Ideal for: Day trading, scalping, and multi-asset monitoring.
Best paired with: 1m to 4H timeframes (auto-warns on higher TFs).
Key metrics:
Real-time % change from daily open.
Final daily % change (updated at session close).
Daily open price labels for orientation.
HOW TO USE
Visual Guide
Sparkline Plot:
A green area/line indicates price is above the daily open (bullish).
A red area/line signals price is below the daily open (bearish).
The baseline (0%) represents the daily open price.
Session Markers:
The dotted vertical lines separate trading days.
Gray labels near the baseline show the exact daily open price at the start of each session.
Dynamic Labels:
The labels in the upper left corner of each session range display the current (or final) daily % change. Color matches the trend (green/red) for instant readability.
Practical Use Cases
Opening Range Breakouts: Spot early momentum by observing how price reacts to the daily open.
Multi-Asset Screening: Compare intraday strength across symbols by choosing an asset in the indicator settings panel.
Session Close Prep: Anticipate daily settlement by tracking the final % change (useful for futures/swing traders).
SETTINGS
Asset (Input Symbol) : Defaults to the current chart symbol. Choose any asset to monitor its price action without switching charts - ideal for intermarket analysis or correlation tracking.
