VWAP Flow ParmezanThe "Official Bank Flow VWAP" is a comprehensive trading suite designed for institutional Forex traders.
This indicator solves the problem of chart clutter by combining two critical components of liquidity: Price (Value) and Time (Sessions). It is specifically optimized for EUR/USD and GBP/USD on intraday timeframes (M5, M15), helping you identify high-probability setups where "Fair Value" meets "Volatility."
Key Features
1. Multi-Timeframe VWAP Hierarchy Unlike standard indicators, this tool visualizes the interaction between three distinct timeframes:
Daily VWAP (Dynamic Color): Your primary trend filter. Green when Bullish (Price > VWAP), Red when Bearish (Price < VWAP).
Weekly VWAP (Orange Dots): Represents the medium-term balance. Acts as a magnet for mean reversion mid-week.
Monthly VWAP (Purple Line): The institutional "line in the sand." Major support/resistance level.
2. Standard Deviation Bands (Market Balance) The indicator plots SD1 and SD2 bands around the Daily VWAP:
Inner Zone (SD1): Represents the "Fair Value" area.
Outer Bands (SD2): Represents overbought/oversold conditions. Useful for identifying mean reversion plays back to the center.
3. Official Exchange Sessions (Time) Forget confusing "killzones." This tool highlights the Official Open times for major exchanges, adjusted for Daylight Savings via New York time:
London Open (08:00 LDN): The start of European volume.
New York Open (08:00 NY): The injection of US liquidity.
London Close/Fix: The daily overlap close, often marking trend reversals.
Note: Sessions are visualized with non-intrusive black "shadow" backgrounds to keep your chart clean.
4. "Ghost" Levels (Previous VWAP) A unique feature that plots the closing VWAP level of the previous day. Institutional algorithms often target these "untested" levels as Take Profit targets or liquidity pools.
How to Use
Trend Following: If Price is above the Daily VWAP (Green) during the London Open, look for Long entries targeting the SD1/SD2 upper bands.
Mean Reversion: If Price hits the SD2 Band while far away from the Weekly VWAP, look for a reversal back to the mean.
Confluence: The strongest signals occur when price touches a key VWAP level (e.g., Weekly VWAP) specifically during the highlighted Session Start times.
Settings
Timezone: Defaults to America/New_York to automatically handle DST shifts for London/NY opens.
Visuals: Fully customizable colors and transparency. Default is set to a "Dark Mode" friendly professional palette.
52 Week High LowPurpose
This indicator plots the rolling **52-week high and low price levels** to highlight long-term breakout zones, major support/resistance bands, and trend structure used by position and swing traders.
## How It Works
The script dynamically calculates:
- The highest high over the last ~260 trading sessions (52-week high)
- The lowest low over the last ~260 trading sessions (52-week low)
- Visual bands that update in real time as price evolves
## Best Timeframe
Optimized for **daily charts** to reflect true yearly price ranges.
Can be adapted to other timeframes using the bar-count inputs.
## Trading Applications
✅ Breakout confirmation tool
✅ Long-term trend validation
✅ Relative strength filter alignment
✅ RRG and momentum cross-checks
✅ Swing trade zone identification
## How To Use
1. Apply to daily charts.
2. Track price interaction with the 52-week bands.
3. Look for:
- Breakouts above the high band for trend continuation
- Pullbacks toward the high band for retest entries
- Rejections at the low band as breakdown confirmation
⚠️ This indicator maps key price structure — it does **not predict directional outcomes**.
Always combine with volume or momentum confirmation.
---
## Mathematical Basis
Rolling extreme calculations based on:
- **Highest high over N bars**
- **Lowest low over N bars**
N defaults to **52 weeks × 5 sessions = 260 bars** for daily charts.

Developed for professional retail traders seeking institutional-grade structural tools.
AP Capital – Volatility + High/Low Projection v1.1📌 AP Capital – Volatility + High/Low Projection v1.1
Predictive Daily Volatility • Session Logic • High/Low Projection Indicator
This indicator is designed to help traders visually understand daily volatility conditions, identify session-based turning points, and anticipate potential highs and lows of the day using statistical behavior observed across thousands of bars of intraday data.
It combines intraday session structure, volatility regime classification, and context from the previous day’s expansion to highlight high-probability areas where the market may set its daily high or daily low.
🔍 What This Indicator Does
1. Volatility Regime Detection
Each day is classified into:
🔴 High Volatility (trend continuation & expansion likely)
🟡 Normal Volatility
🔵 Low Volatility (chop, false breaks, mean-reversion common)
The background color automatically adapts so you always know what environment you're trading in.
2. Session-Based High/Low Identification
Different global sessions tend to create different market behaviors:
Asia session frequently sets the LOW of day
New York & Late US sessions frequently set the HIGH of day
This indicator uses those probabilities to highlight potential turning points.
3. Potential High / Low of Day Projections
The script plots:
🟢 Potential LOW of Day
🔴 Potential HIGH of Day
These appear only when:
Price hits the session-statistical turning zone
Volatility conditions match
Yesterday’s expansion or compression context agrees
This keeps signals clean and prevents over-marking.
4. Clean Visuals
Instead of cluttering the chart, highs and lows are marked only when conditions align, making this tool ideal for:
Session scalpers
Day traders
Gold / NAS100 / FX intraday traders
High-probability reversal traders
🧠 How It Works
The engine combines:
Daily range vs 20-day average
Real-time intraday high/low formation
Session-specific probability weighting
Previous day expansion and volatility filters
This results in highly reliable signals for:
Fade trades
Reversal setups
Timing entries more accurately
✔️ Best Uses
Identifying where the day’s range is likely to complete
Avoiding trades during low-volatility compression days
Detecting where the market is likely to turn during major sessions
Using potential HIGH/LOW levels as take-profit zones
Enhancing breakout or reversal strategies
⚠️ Disclaimer
This indicator does not repaint, but it is not a standalone entry tool.
It is designed to provide context, session awareness, and volatility-driven turning points to assist your existing strategy.
Always combine with sound risk management.
Session Range Boxes GR v2.1This indicator draws intraday range boxes for the main Forex sessions based on Europe/Budapest time (CET/CEST).
Tracked sessions (Budapest time):
Asia: 01:00 – 08:00
Frankfurt (pre-London): 08:00 – 09:00
London: 09:00 – 18:00
New York: 14:30 – 23:00
For each session, the script:
Detects the session start and session end using the current chart timeframe and the Europe/Budapest time zone.
Tracks the high and low of price during the session.
Draws a colored box from session open to session close, covering the full price range between the session high and low.
Draws a white midline inside every box at the midpoint between the session high and low (and keeps it visible for all past sessions).
Optionally plots a small label (“Asia”, “Fra”, “London”, “NY”) above the first bar of each session.
Color scheme:
Asia: soft orange box
Frankfurt: light aqua box
London: darker blue box
New York: light lime box
Use this tool to:
Quickly see which session created the high or low of the day,
Highlight important liquidity zones and prior session ranges that price may revisit,
Visually separate Asia, Frankfurt, London and New York volatility profiles on intraday charts.
Optimized for intraday trading (Forex / indices), but it works on any symbol where session behavior and time-of-day structure matter.
Liquidity Hunter Pro v11.9 — TQI EditionLiquidity Hunter Pro v12 is built for intraday traders who want structure, clarity, and precision without unnecessary clutter. The tool blends market structure, momentum, trend alignment, volatility regime analysis, and liquidity mapping into a single unified model.
This version focuses on three core goals:
1. Identify only high-quality, directional market conditions.
The engine filters through HTF bias, short-term structure shifts, RSI momentum, and volatility compression/expansion. The idea is simple: wait for the market to become clean, aligned, and directional before considering an entry.
2. Map liquidity and detect sweeps in real time.
Major highs and lows are tracked using extended pivots, and the system highlights key areas where stop hunts or sweeps may occur. Sweeps and pressure zones are evaluated and factored directly into the quality score.
3. Grade every potential setup with a single, objective metric (TQI).
The Trade Quality Index (0–5⭐) compresses all signals into one reading so the trader can quickly judge whether a setup has enough quality to act on.
The script includes:
• Trend + Momentum + Structure detection
• HTF bias (optional)
• Volatility regime analysis
• Liquidity sweeps + pressure zones
• Micro-confirmation engine
• PQI (0–100%)
• TQI (0–5⭐)
• Clean HUD and Driver’s Guide
• Auto-cleaning labels and signal management
• Optional session filtering (London/NY)
This tool is designed for traders who value confirmation over noise.
It will not fire constantly.
It will wait patiently for clean, directional, aligned markets — and only then issue a signal.
How to Use Liquidity Hunter Pro v12
1. Check the HUD (top-right by default)
The HUD is your dashboard. Before doing anything:
A. HTF Bias
This is your map. Only trade in the direction of the bias.
B. Trend / Momentum / Structure
These should ideally all match the direction of the bias.
If they don’t line up → wait. No alignment = low probability.
C. Liquidity + Volatility Regime
“Sweep ↑→↓” or “Sweep ↓→↑” = potential reversal points
“Expansion” = clean conditions
“Compression” = choppy, avoid
You don’t need to overthink any of this — just think:
“Are the ingredients lined up?”
2. Wait for a valid signal
The indicator will only trigger a BUY or SELL when:
✓ HTF bias aligns
✓ Trend & momentum align
✓ Structure supports the move
✓ Micro-confirmation kicks in
✓ PQI ≥ 75
✓ Sessions are open (optional)
Signals are rare on purpose.
When one prints, you know the market conditions are stacked.
3. Read the label
Each signal prints a small block next to the candle containing:
• Entry price
• SL (based on structure)
• TP(2R) suggestion
• Liquidity context (e.g., sweep or pressure)
• Volatility regime
• TQI ⭐ rating (0–5)
This helps you judge the setup instantly.
A simple rule for beginners:
Trade only if TQI ≥ ⭐⭐⭐
Lower than that = more noise, less edge.
4. Use the liquidity zones
The script plots subtle boxes at recent liquidity highs/lows.
These mark:
• Where the market may hunt stops
• Where reversals often start
• Where signals are more meaningful
When a signal happens near liquidity → higher quality.
5. Follow the session filter (optional but recommended)
By default the tool focuses on:
• London session
• New York session
That removes 70% of low-volatility garbage.
You can turn this off if you trade crypto or indices overnight, but beginners usually benefit from keeping it on.
Recommended Settings
These are the settings used by most testers and early users.
Everything is configurable, but start with this:
Core Settings
• Fast EMA: 21
• Slow EMA: 55
• RSI Length: 14
• Pivot Lookback: 2
These settings create balanced structure detection and smooth trend signals.
HTF Bias
• Use HTF Bias: ON
• HTF Timeframe: 240 (H4)
H4 bias keeps you out of counter-trend traps.
Sessions
• Use London/NY Filter: ON
• London: 08:00–17:00
• New York: 13:30–21:00
Perfect for FX, indices, and metals.
Crypto traders: turn sessions OFF.
HUD + Guide
• HUD: ON
• Guide: ON
• Linger Bars: 12
This keeps things readable and prevents clutter.
Trading Tips for Beginners
These help keep you out of trouble:
1. Don’t fade the bias.
If HTF says bearish → avoid buys.
2. Don’t trade in compression regimes.
It saves you from chop.
3. Don’t chase signals that fire far from structure.
If the signal candle is huge, let it go.
4. Don’t trade without at least ⭐⭐⭐.
You’ll thank yourself later.
Final Thoughts
Liquidity Hunter Pro v12 isn’t meant to spam signals.
It’s meant to filter hard, highlight clean conditions, and help new traders avoid the traps the market throws every day.
Treat it as a trading assistant that tells you:
“The environment is right. Now you decide.”

Session ParmezanForex Session Range Boxes (Asia, Europe, US) — visual intraday session tracker for Forex and metals.
This indicator automatically marks the three major Forex trading sessions — Asian (Tokyo), European (London), and American (New York) — directly on your chart using dynamic colored boxes.
Each box represents the full price range (High–Low) formed during that session, helping traders visualize how volatility and liquidity evolve across the global trading day.
The script is built for intraday traders and session-based strategies, especially those who monitor breakouts from the Asian range or reactions during London–New York overlaps.
⚙️ Features
• Accurate session timing (UTC+3 / Moscow Time) — Asia: 03:00–12:00, Europe: 11:00–20:00, US: 16:00–01:00.
• Dynamic range boxes: each box expands in real time as new highs and lows are set during the session.
• Clear visual separation: each session is shown in its own color (blue for Asia, orange for Europe, green for US).
• Automatic daily reset — new boxes start every new session.
• Intraday focus only — visible up to the 1-hour timeframe (M1–H1) for clarity.
• Transparent design — semi-transparent fills keep candles readable even when sessions overlap.
• Lightweight performance — optimized use of box.new() and var variables avoids lag on lower timeframes.
🧭 Typical Use-Cases
• Identify Asian session ranges and watch for London breakouts or New York reversals.
• Visually align your intraday strategy with session volatility cycles.
• Combine with VWAP, liquidity zones, or market profile indicators for deeper confluence.
• Spot overlapping sessions — often the most active periods of the day.

LibTmFrLibrary "LibTmFr"
This is a utility library for handling timeframes and
multi-timeframe (MTF) analysis in Pine Script. It provides a
collection of functions designed to handle common tasks related
to period detection, session alignment, timeframe construction,
and time calculations, forming a foundation for
MTF indicators.
Key Capabilities:
1. **MTF Period Engine:** The library includes functions for
managing higher-timeframe (HTF) periods.
- **Period Detection (`isNewPeriod`):** Detects the first bar
of a given timeframe. It includes custom logic to handle
multi-month and multi-year intervals where
`timeframe.change()` may not be sufficient.
- **Bar Counting (`sinceNewPeriod`):** Counts the number of
bars that have passed in the current HTF period or
returns the final count for a completed historical period.
2. **Automatic Timeframe Selection:** Offers functions for building
a top-down analysis framework:
- **Automatic HTF (`autoHTF`):** Suggests a higher timeframe
(HTF) for broader context based on the current timeframe.
- **Automatic LTF (`autoLTF`):** Suggests an appropriate lower
timeframe (LTF) for granular intra-bar analysis.
3. **Timeframe Manipulation and Comparison:** Includes tools for
working with timeframe strings:
- **Build & Split (`buildTF`, `splitTF`):** Functions to
programmatically construct valid Pine Script timeframe
strings (e.g., "4H") and parse them back into their
numeric and unit components.
- **Comparison (`isHigherTF`, `isActiveTF`, `isLowerTF`):**
A set of functions to check if a given timeframe is
higher, lower, or the same as the script's active timeframe.
- **Multiple Validation (`isMultipleTF`):** Checks if a
higher timeframe is a practical multiple of the current
timeframe. This is based on the assumption that checking
if recent, completed HTF periods contained more than one
bar is a valid proxy for preventing data gaps.
4. **Timestamp Interpolation:** Contains an `interpTimestamp()`
function that calculates an absolute timestamp by
interpolating at a given percentage across a specified
range of bars (e.g., 50% of the way through the last
20 bars), enabling time calculations at a resolution
finer than the chart's native bars.

buildTF(quantity, unit)
Builds a Pine Script timeframe string from a numeric quantity and a unit enum.
The resulting string can be used with `request.security()` or `input.timeframe`.
Parameters:
quantity (int) : series int Number to specifie how many `unit` the timeframe spans.
unit (series TFUnit) : series TFUnit The size category for the bars.
Returns: series string A Pine-style timeframe identifier, e.g.
"5S" → 5-seconds bars
"30" → 30-minute bars
"120" → 2-hour bars
"1D" → daily bars
"3M" → 3-month bars
"24M" → 2-year bars
splitTF(tf)
Splits a Pine‑timeframe identifier into numeric quantity and unit (TFUnit).
Parameters:
tf (string) : series string Timeframe string, e.g.
"5S", "30", "120", "1D", "3M", "24M".
Returns:
quantity series int The numeric value of the timeframe (e.g., 15 for "15", 3 for "3M").
unit series TFUnit The unit of the timeframe (e.g., TFUnit.minutes, TFUnit.months).
Notes on strings without a suffix:
• Pure digits are minutes; if divisible by 60, they are treated as hours.
• An "M" suffix is months; if divisible by 12, it is converted to years.
autoHTF(tf)
Picks an appropriate **higher timeframe (HTF)** relative to the selected timeframe.
It steps up along a coarse ladder to produce sensible jumps for top‑down analysis.
Mapping → chosen HTF:
≤ 1 min → 60 (1h) ≈ ×60
≤ 3 min → 180 (3h) ≈ ×60
≤ 5 min → 240 (4h) ≈ ×48
≤ 15 min → D (1 day) ≈ ×26–×32 (regular session 6.5–8 h)
> 15 min → W (1 week) ≈ ×64–×80 for 30m; varies with input
≤ 1 h → W (1 week) ≈ ×32–×40
≤ 4 h → M (1 month) ≈ ×36–×44 (~22 trading days / month)
> 4 h → 3M (3 months) ≈ ×36–×66 (e.g., 12h→×36–×44; 8h→×53–×66)
≤ 1 day → 3M (3 months) ≈ ×60–×66 (~20–22 trading days / month)
> 1 day → 12M (1 year) ≈ ×(252–264)/quantity
≤ 1 week → 12M (1 year) ≈ ×52
> 1 week → 48M (4 years) ≈ ×(208)/quantity
= 1 M → 48M (4 years) ≈ ×48
> 1 M → error ("HTF too big")
any → error ("HTF too big")
Notes:
• Inputs in months or years are restricted: only 1M is allowed; larger months/any years throw.
• Returns a Pine timeframe string usable in `request.security()` and `input.timeframe`.
Parameters:
tf (string) : series string Selected timeframe (e.g., "D", "240", or `timeframe.period`).
Returns: series string Suggested higher timeframe.
autoLTF(tf)
Selects an appropriate **lower timeframe LTF)** for intra‑bar evaluation
based on the selected timeframe. The goal is to keep intra‑bar
loops performant while providing enough granularity.
Mapping → chosen LTF:
≤ 1 min → 1S ≈ ×60
≤ 5 min → 5S ≈ ×60
≤ 15 min → 15S ≈ ×60
≤ 30 min → 30S ≈ ×60
> 30 min → 60S (1m) ≈ ×31–×59 (for 31–59 minute charts)
≤ 1 h → 1 (1m) ≈ ×60
≤ 2 h → 2 (2m) ≈ ×60
≤ 4 h → 5 (5m) ≈ ×48
> 4 h → 15 (15m) ≈ ×24–×48 (e.g., 6h→×24, 8h→×32, 12h→×48)
≤ 1 day → 15 (15m) ≈ ×26–×32 (regular sessions ~6.5–8h)
> 1 day → 60 (60m) ≈ ×(26–32) per day × quantity
≤ 1 week → 60 (60m) ≈ ×32–×40 (≈5 sessions of ~6.5–8h)
> 1 week → 240 (4h) ≈ ×(8–10) per week × quantity
≤ 1 M → 240 (4h) ≈ ×33–×44 (~20–22 sessions × 6.5–8h / 4h)
≤ 3 M → D (1d) ≈ ×(20–22) per month × quantity
> 3 M → W (1w) ≈ ×(4–5) per month × quantity
≤ 1 Y → W (1w) ≈ ×52
> 1 Y → M (1M) ≈ ×12 per year × quantity
Notes:
• Ratios for D/W/M are given as ranges because they depend on
**regular session length** (typically ~6.5–8h, not 24h).
• Returned strings can be used with `request.security()` and `input.timeframe`.
Parameters:
tf (string) : series string Selected timeframe (e.g., "D", "240", or timeframe.period).
Returns: series string Suggested lower TF to use for intra‑bar work.
isNewPeriod(tf, offset)
Returns `true` when a new session-aligned period begins, or on the Nth bar of that period.
Parameters:
tf (string) : series string Target higher timeframe (e.g., "D", "W", "M").
offset (simple int) : simple int 0 → checks for the first bar of the new period.
1+ → checks for the N-th bar of the period.
Returns: series bool `true` if the condition is met.
sinceNewPeriod(tf, offset)
Counts how many bars have passed within a higher timeframe (HTF) period.
For daily, weekly, and monthly resolutions, the period is aligned with the trading session.
Parameters:
tf (string) : series string Target parent timeframe (e.g., "60", "D").
offset (simple int) : simple int 0 → Running count for the current period.
1+ → Finalized count for the Nth most recent *completed* period.
Returns: series int Number of bars.
isHigherTF(tf, main)
Returns `true` when the selected timeframe represents a
higher resolution than the active timeframe.
Parameters:
tf (string) : series string Selected timeframe.
main (bool) : series bool When `true`, the comparison is made against the chart's main timeframe
instead of the script's active timeframe. Optional. Defaults to `false`.
Returns: series bool `true` if `tf` > active TF; otherwise `false`.
isActiveTF(tf, main)
Returns `true` when the selected timeframe represents the
exact resolution of the active timeframe.
Parameters:
tf (string) : series string Selected timeframe.
main (bool) : series bool When `true`, the comparison is made against the chart's main timeframe
instead of the script's active timeframe. Optional. Defaults to `false`.
Returns: series bool `true` if `tf` == active TF; otherwise `false`.
isLowerTF(tf, main)
Returns `true` when the selected timeframe represents a
lower resolution than the active timeframe.
Parameters:
tf (string) : series string Selected timeframe.
main (bool) : series bool When `true`, the comparison is made against the chart's main timeframe
instead of the script's active timeframe. Optional. Defaults to `false`.
Returns: series bool `true` if `tf` < active TF; otherwise `false`.
isMultipleTF(tf)
Returns `true` if the selected timeframe (`tf`) is a practical multiple
of the active skript's timeframe. It verifies this by checking if `tf` is a higher timeframe
that has consistently contained more than one bar of the skript's timeframe in recent periods.
The period detection is session-aware.
Parameters:
tf (string) : series string The higher timeframe to check.
Returns: series bool `true` if `tf` is a practical multiple; otherwise `false`.
interpTimestamp(offStart, offEnd, pct)
Calculates a precise absolute timestamp by interpolating within a bar range based on a percentage.
This version works with RELATIVE bar offsets from the current bar.
Parameters:
offStart (int) : series int The relative offset of the starting bar (e.g., 10 for 10 bars ago).
offEnd (int) : series int The relative offset of the ending bar (e.g., 1 for 1 bar ago). Must be <= offStart.
pct (float) : series float The percentage of the bar range to measure (e.g., 50.5 for 50.5%).
Values are clamped to the range.
Returns: series int The calculated, interpolated absolute Unix timestamp in milliseconds.

GARCH Range PredictorThis was inspired by deltatrendtrading's video on GARCH models to predict daily trading ranges and identify favorable trading conditions. Based on advanced volatility forecasting techniques, it predicts whether a trading day's true range will exceed a threshold, helping traders decide when to trade or skip a session.
Key Features
GARCH(1,1) Volatility Modeling: Uses log-transformed true ranges with exponential moving average centering
Forward-Looking Predictions: Makes predictions at session start before the day unfolds
Dynamic or Static Thresholds: Choose between fixed dollar thresholds or adaptive 20-day averages
Accuracy Tracking: Monitors prediction accuracy with overall and recent (20-day) hit rates
Visual Session Boxes: Colors trading sessions green (trade) or red (skip) based on predictions
Real-Time Statistics: Displays current predictions, thresholds, and performance metrics
How It Works
Data Transformation: Log-transforms daily true ranges and centers them using an EMA
Variance Modeling: Updates GARCH variance using: σ²ₜ = ω + α(residual²) + β(σ²ₜ₋₁)
Prediction Generation: Back-transforms log predictions to dollar values
Signal Generation: Compares predictions to threshold to generate trade/skip signals
Performance Tracking: Validates predictions against actual outcomes
Parameters
GARCH Parameters (ω, α, β): Control volatility persistence and mean reversion
EMA Period: Smoothing period for log range centering
Threshold Settings: Static dollar amount or dynamic multiplier of recent averages
Session Time: Define regular trading hours for analysis
Best Use Cases
Breakout and momentum strategies that perform better on high-range days
Risk management by avoiding low-volatility sessions
Futures day trading (optimized for MNQ/NQ detection)
Any strategy where daily range impacts profitability
Important Notes
Requires 5+ sessions for initialization and warm-up
Accuracy depends heavily on proper parameter tuning for your specific instrument
Default parameters may need adjustment for different markets

Session Volume Spike DetectorSession Volume Spike Detector (Buy/Sell, Dual Windows, MTF + Edge/Cooldown)
What it does
Detects statistically significant buy/sell volume spikes inside two DST-aware Mountain Time sessions and projects 1m / 5m / 10m signals onto any chart timeframe (even 1s). Spikes are confirmed at the close of their native bar and are edge-triggered with optional cooldowns to prevent duplicate alerts.
How spikes are detected
Volume ≥ SMA × multiplier
Optional jump vs recent highest volume
Optional Z-Score gate for significance
Separate Buy/Sell logic using your Direction Mode (Prev Close or Candle Body)
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) display
Shows 1m, 5m, 10m arrows on your current chart
Each HTF fires once on its bar close (no repaint after close)
Sessions (DST-aware, MT)
Morning: 05:30–08:30
Midday: 11:00–13:30
Spikes only count inside these windows.
Inputs & styling
Thresholds: SMA length, multipliers, recent lookback, Z-Score toggle/level
Toggles for which TFs to display (chart TF, 1m, 5m, 10m)
Per-TF colors + cooldowns (seconds) for Any TF, 1m, 5m, 10m
Alerts (edge + cooldown)
MTF Volume Spike (Any TF) — fires on the first qualifying spike across enabled TFs
1m / 5m / 10m Volume Spike — per-TF alerts, Buy or Sell
Recommended: set alert Trigger = Once per bar close. Cooldowns tame “triggered too often” warnings.
Great with
FVG zones, bank/insto levels, session range breaks, and trend filters. Use the MTF arrows as a participation/pressure tell to confirm or fade moves.
Notes
Works on any symbol/timeframe; best viewed on 1m or sub-minute charts.
HTF spikes appear on the bar close of 1m/5m/10m respectively.
No dynamic plot titles; Pine v6-safe.
Short summary (≤250 chars):
MTF volume-spike detector for intraday sessions (DST-aware, MT). Projects 1m/5m/10m buy/sell spikes onto any chart, with edge-triggered alerts and per-TF cooldowns to prevent duplicates. Ideal for spotting institutional participation.

💡Note
This indicator represents advanced quantitative analysis and should be used by traders familiar with statistical modeling concepts. The probability scores are mathematical estimates based on historical patterns and should be combined with proper risk management and additional technical analysis for optimal trading decisions.
% of Average Volume% of Average Volume (RVOL)
What it is
This indicator measures cumulative volume during pre market and separately during the first 10 minutes of trading and compares it to the average 30 day volume. This matters as a high ratio of volume within the premarket and then during the first 10 minutes of trading can correlate to a stock that has a higher probability of trending in that direction throughout the day.
What it’s meant to do
Identify abnormally high or low participation early in the day.
Normalize volume by time of session, so 9:40 volume is compared to past 9:40 volume—not to the full-day total.
Provide consistent RVOL across 1–5–15–60 minute charts (the same market state yields similar readings).
Handle pre-market cleanly (optional) without inflating RVOL.
How it works (plain English)
Cumulative Intraday Volume: Adds up all bars from the session (or pre-market, if enabled) up to “now.”
Time-Matched Baseline: For each prior day in your lookback, it accumulates only up to the same intraday minute and averages those values.
RVOL %: RVOL = (Today cumulative / Average cumulative at same time) × 100.
This “like-for-like” approach prevents the classic mistakes that overstate RVOL in pre-market or make it drift with timeframe changes.
Works best on
Intraday charts: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60 min
Regular & extended hours: NYSE/Nasdaq equities, futures, ETFs
Daily/weekly views are supported for reference, but the edge comes from intraday time-matched analysis.
Tip: For thin names or very early pre-market, expect more variability—lower liquidity increases noise.
Customization (Inputs → Settings)
Lookback Sessions (e.g., 20): How many prior trading days to build the average.
Include Pre-Market (on/off): If on, RVOL accumulates from pre-market start and compares to historical pre-market at the same time; if off, it begins at the regular session open only.
Session Timezone / Exchange Hours: Choose the session definition that matches your market (e.g., NYSE) so “time-matched” means the same thing every day.
Cutoff Minute (Optional): Fix a reference minute (e.g., 6:40 a.m. PT / 9:40 a.m. ET) to evaluate RVOL at a standard check-in time.
Smoothing (Optional): Apply a short moving average to the RVOL line to reduce jitter.
Thresholds & Colors: Set levels (e.g., 150%, 300%) to color the plot/labels and trigger alerts.
Show Labels/Debug: Toggle on-chart labels (current RVOL%, baseline vols) for quick audits.
On-chart visuals & alerts
RVOL% Line/Histogram: Color-coded by thresholds (e.g., >300% “exceptional”, >150% “elevated”).
Session Markers: Optional vertical lines for pre-market/regular open.
Alerts:
RVOL Crosses Above X% (e.g., 150%, 300%)
RVOL Crosses Below X%
RVOL Rising/Falling (slope-based, optional)
Good defaults to start
Lookback: 20 sessions
Pre-market: Off for large caps, On for momentum screens
Thresholds: 150% (notable), 300% (exceptional)
Smoothing: 0–3 bars (or off for fastest response)
Notes & best practices
Timeframe consistency: Because calculations are time-matched, RVOL should remain directionally consistent across intraday timeframes. If you see divergences, confirm your session hours & timezone match your instrument’s exchange.
Holiday/half days: These are included in history; you can shorten lookback or exclude such sessions if your workflow prefers.
Low-float names: Consider a slightly longer lookback to reduce outlier effects.
TL;DR
A time-matched RVOL that treats pre-market correctly, stays stable across intraday timeframes, and is fully customizable for your exchange hours, thresholds, and alerts—so you can spot real participation when it matters.
Quarterly Theory —Q1,Q2,Q3,Q4The Quarterly Theory Indicator is a trading tool designed to visualize the natural time-based cycles of the market, based on the principles of Quarterly Theory, popularized by the Inner Circle Trader (ICT). The indicator divides market sessions into four equal “quarters” to help traders identify potential accumulation, manipulation, and distribution phases (AMD model) and improve the timing of entries and exits.
Key Features:
Quarter Divisions (Q1–Q4):
Each market session (e.g., NY AM, London, Asia) is divided into four quarters.
Vertical lines mark the beginning of each quarter, making it easy to track session structure.
Optional labels show Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 directly on the chart.
True Open (Q2 Open):
The True Open is the opening price of Q2, considered a key reference point in Quarterly Theory.
A horizontal red line is drawn at the True Open price with a label showing the exact value.
This line helps traders filter bullish and bearish setups:
Buy below the True Open if the market is bullish.
Sell above the True Open if the market is bearish.
Session Awareness:
The indicator can automatically detect market sessions and reset lines and labels for each new session.
Ensures that only the current session’s True Open and quarter lines are displayed, reducing chart clutter.
Timeframe Flexibility:
Works on any chart timeframe (1-minute to daily).
Maintains accurate alignment of quarters and True Open regardless of the timeframe used.
Purpose of Quarterly Theory:
Quarterly Theory is based on the idea that market behavior is fractal and time-driven. By dividing sessions into four quarters, traders can anticipate potential market phases:
Q1: Initial price discovery and setup for the session.
Q2: Accumulation or manipulation phase, where the True Open is established.
Q3: Manipulation or Judas Swing phase designed to trap traders.
Q4: Distribution or trend continuation/reversal.
By visualizing these quarters and the True Open, traders can reduce ambiguity, identify high-probability setups, and improve their timing in line with the ICT AMD (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution) framework.
RTH Levels: VWAP + PDH/PDL + ONH/ONL + IBAlgo Index — Levels Pro (ONH/ONL • PDH/PDL • VWAP±Bands • IB • Gaps)
Purpose. A session-aware, non-repainting levels tool for intraday decision-making. Designed for futures and indices, with clean visuals, alerts, and a one-click Minimal Mode for screenshot-ready charts.
What it plots
• PDH/PDL (RTH-only) – Prior Regular Trading Hours high/low, computed intraday and frozen at the RTH close (no 24h mix-ups, no repainting).
• ONH/ONL – Prior Overnight high/low, held throughout RTH.
• RTH VWAP with ±σ bands – Volume-weighted variance, reset each RTH.
• Initial Balance (IB) – First N minutes of RTH, plus 1.5× / 2.0× extensions after IB completes.
• Today’s RTH Open & Prior RTH Close – With gap detection and “gap filled” alert.
• Killzone shading – NY Open (09:30–10:30 ET) and Lunch (11:15–13:30 ET).
• Values panel (top-right) – Each level with live distance in points & ticks.
• Right-edge level tags – With anti-overlap (stagger + vertical jitter).
• Price-scale tags – Native trackprice markers that always “stick” to the axis.
⸻
New in v6.4
• Minimal Mode: one click for a clean look (thinner lines, VWAP bands/IB extensions hidden, on-chart right-edge labels off; price-scale tags remain).
• Theme presets: Dark Hi-Contrast / Light Minimal / Futures Classic / Muted Dark.
• Anti-overlap controls: horizontal staggering, vertical jitter, and baseline offset to keep tags readable even when levels cluster.
⸻
Quick start (2 minutes)
1. Add to chart → keep defaults.
2. Sessions (ET):
• RTH Session default: 09:30–16:00 (US equities cash hours).
• Overnight Session default: 18:00–09:29.
Adjust for your market if you use different “day” hours (e.g., many use 08:20–13:30 ET for COMEX Gold).
3. Theme & Minimal Mode: pick a Theme Preset; enable Minimal Mode for screenshots.
4. Visibility: toggle PD/ON/VWAP/IB/References/Panel to taste.
5. Right-edge labels: turn Show Right-Edge Labels on. If they crowd, tune:
• Anti-overlap: min separation (ticks)
• Horizontal offset per tag (bars)
• Vertical jitter per step (ticks)
• Right-edge baseline offset (bars)
6. Alerts: open Add alert → Condition: and pick the events you want.
⸻
How levels are computed (no repainting)
• PDH/PDL: Intraday H/L are accumulated only while in RTH and saved at RTH close for “yesterday’s” values.
• ONH/ONL: Accumulated across the defined Overnight window and then held during RTH.
• RTH VWAP & ±σ: Volume-weighted mean and standard deviation, reset at the RTH open.
• IB: First N minutes of RTH (default 60). Extensions (1.5×/2.0×) appear after IB completes.
• Gaps: Today’s RTH open vs prior RTH close; “Gap Filled” triggers when price trades back to prior close.
⸻
Practical playbooks (how to trade around the levels)
1) PDH/PDL interactions
• Rejection: Price taps PDH/PDL then closes back inside → mean-reversion toward VWAP/IB.
• Acceptance: Close/hold beyond PDH/PDL with momentum → continuation to next HTF/IB target.
• Alert: PD Touch/Break.
2) ONH/ONL “taken”
• Often one ON extreme is taken during RTH. ONH Taken / ONL Taken → check if it’s a clean break or sweep & reclaim.
• Sweep + reclaim near VWAP can fuel rotations through the ON range.
3) VWAP ±σ framework
• Balanced: First tag of ±1σ often reverts toward VWAP.
• Trend: Persistent trade beyond ±1σ + IB break → target ±2σ/±3σ.
• Alerts: VWAP Cross and VWAP Reject (cross then immediate fail back).
4) IB breaks
• After IB completes, a clean IB break commonly targets 1.5× and sometimes 2.0×.
• Quick return inside IB = possible fade back to the opposite IB edge/VWAP.
• Alerts: IB Break Up / Down.
5) Gaps
• Gap-and-go: Opening drive away from prior close + VWAP support → trend until IB completion.
• Gap-fill: Weak open and VWAP overhead/underfoot → trade toward prior close; manage on Gap Filled alert.
Pro tip: Stack confluences (e.g., ONL sweep + VWAP reclaim + IB hold) and respect your execution rules (e.g., require a 5-minute close in direction, or your order-flow confirmation).
⸻
Inputs you’ll actually touch
• Sessions (ET): Session Timezone, RTH Session, Overnight Session.
• Visibility: toggles for PD/ON/VWAP/IB/Ref/Panel.

• Style & Theme: Theme Preset, Main Line Width, Trackprice, Minimal Mode, and anti-overlap controls.
⸻
Alerts included
• PD Touch/Break — High ≥ PDH or Low ≤ PDL
• ONH Taken / ONL Taken — First in-RTH take of ONH/ONL
• VWAP Cross — Close crosses VWAP
• VWAP Reject — Cross then immediate fail back
• IB Break Up / Down — Break of IB High/Low after IB completes
• Gap Filled — Price trades back to prior RTH close
Setup: Add alert → Condition: Algo Index — Levels Pro → choose event → message → Notify on app/email.
⸻
Panel guide
The top-right panel shows each level plus live distance from last price:
LevelValue (Δpoints | Δticks)
Coloring: green if level is below current price, red if above.
⸻
Styling & screenshot tips
• Use Theme Preset that matches your chart.
• For dark charts, “Dark Hi-Contrast” with Main Line Width = 3 works well.
• Enable Trackprice for crisp axis tags that always stick to the right edge.
• Turn on Minimal Mode for cleaner screenshots (no VWAP bands or IB extensions, on-chart tags off; price-scale tags remain).
• If tags crowd, increase min separation (ticks) to 30–60 and horizontal offset to 3–5; add vertical jitter (4–12 ticks) and/or push tags farther right with baseline offset (bars).
⸻
Behavior & limitations
• Levels are computed incrementally; tables refresh on the last bar for efficiency.
• Right-edge labels are placed at bar_index + offset and do not track extra right-margin scrolling (TradingView limitation). The price-scale tags (from trackprice) do track the axis.
• “RTH” is what you define in inputs. If your market uses different day hours, change the session strings so PDH/PDL reflect your definition of “yesterday’s session.”
⸻
FAQ
Q: My PDH/PDL don’t match the daily chart.
A: By design this uses RTH-only highs/lows, not 24h daily bars. Adjust sessions if you want a different definition.
Q: Right-edge tags overlap or don’t sit at the far right.
A: Increase min separation / horizontal offset / vertical jitter and/or push tags farther with baseline offset. If you want markers that always hug the axis, rely on Trackprice.
Q: Can I change killzones?
A: Yes—edit the session strings in settings or request a version with user inputs for custom windows.

GTrader-ICT All In One-Comumnity VersionMeet the **GTrader-ICT All In One **, a comprehensive toolkit designed to integrate key Inner Circle Trader (ICT) concepts directly onto your chart. This powerful overlay indicator consolidates multiple essential tools, streamlining your technical analysis and helping you identify key temporal and price-based events.
📚 References & Inspiration
This indicator stands on the shoulders of giants. With the help of **tradeforopp** and **LuxAlgo**. The concepts and some implementation details were referenced from the following excellent, publicly available scripts:
ICT Killzones: The session drawing and pivot logic is adapted from tradeforopp
ICT Macros: The macro detection and plotting functionality is inspired by the work of Lux Algo , particularly their widely-used indicators covering ICT concepts.
🎯 Core Features
* **ICT Killzones:** Visualize critical trading sessions with customizable boxes. You can easily toggle and style the **Asia**, **London**, and **New York (AM, Lunch, PM)** sessions to focus on the liquidity and volatility that matter most to your strategy.
* Fully customizable session times and colors.
* Timezone support to align sessions with your local or preferred trading time (defaults to `America/New_York`).
* **ICT Macros:** Automatically identify and plot specific, short-duration time windows where institutional algorithms are known to be active (e.g., `09:50-10:10`, `14:50-15:10`, etc.).
* Plots the high/low range of the macro, providing clear levels of interest.
* Utilizes 1-minute data for precision, even when viewing on 3-minute or 5-minute charts.
📚 Optimization over the other original indicators
We add the custom input for macros session, users just need to input the from/to hour: minute format, and they will be converted into session objects in pinescript
The macro draws function is optimized, removing redundant draws, leading to better performance
Add "Distance from Macro Line to Chart" option
Add "Session Drawings Limit" for better performance
⚠️ Notes on TradingView Warnings
You may encounter some warnings from TradingView when using this script. These are generally expected due to the script's advanced, event-driven nature:
1. **Function Call Consistency:** The function 'box.new' should be called on each calculation for consistency, which may appear. This happens because drawing elements (like session boxes) are intentionally created only on the *first bar* of a new session, not on every single bar. This is a necessary design choice for performance and to prevent duplicate drawings.
2. **Potential for Repainting/Slow Load:** The **Macro** feature uses the `request.security_lower_tf()` function to get accurate 1-minute data. This can trigger warnings about performance or slow loading times. This is a known trade-off for achieving the precision required for the feature.

Session Candles NY #ffsjr"The candle bodies tell the story, wicks do the damage" by ICT
Based on ICT words, I created the sessions indicator, to facilitate the visualization of each session in candle format, with the most important points being the confluence of session openings and closings.
Usually I use to create support and resistances lines using candle sessions bodies and to draw sessions liquidities.
Use on 15 minutes chart and hide default TradingView candles.
Enjoy
cd_full_poi_CxOverview
This indicator tracks the price in 16 different time frames (optional) in order to answer the question of where the current price has reacted or will react.
It appears on the chart and in the report table when the price approaches or touches the fvg or mitigations (order block / supply-demand), the rules of which will be explained below.
In summary, it follows the fvg and mitigations in the higher timeframe than the lower timeframe.
Many traders see fvg or mitigates as an point of interest and see the high, low swept in those zones as a trading opportunity. Key levels, Session high/lows and Equal high and lows also point of interest.
If we summarise the description of the point of interest ;
1- Fair value gaps (FVG) (16 time frames)
2- Mitigation zones (16 time frames)
3- Previous week, day, H4, H1 high and low levels
4- Sessions zones (Asia, London and New York)
5- Equal high and low levels are in indicator display.
Details:
1- Fair Value Gaps : It is simply described as a price gap and consists of a series of 3 candles. The reaction of the price to the gap between the 1st and 3rd candle wicks is observed.
The indicator offers 3 options for marking. These are :
1-1- ‘Colours are unimportant’: candle colours are not considered for marking. Fvg formation is sufficient.(Classical)
1-2- ‘First candle opposite colour’ : when a price gap occurs, the first candle of a series of 3 candles must be opposite.
For bullish fvg : bearish - bullish - free
For Bearish fvg : bullish - bearish - free
1-3- ‘All same colour’ : all candles in a series of 3 candles must be the same direction.
For bullish fvg: bullish - bullish - bullish
For bearish fvg : bearish - bearish – bearish
Examples:
2- Mitigation zones: Opposite candles with a fvg in front of them or candles higher/lower than the previous and next candle and with the same colour as the fvg series are marked.
Examples :
3- Previous week, day, H4, H1 high and low levels
4- Sessions regions (Asia, London and New York)
5- Equal high and low levels:
Annotation: Many traders want to see a liquidity grab on the poi, then try to enter the trade with the appropriate method.
Among the indicators, there is also the indication of grabs/swepts that occur at swing points. It is also indicated when the area previously marked as equal high/low is violated (grab).
At the end, sample setups will be shown to give an idea about the use of the indicator.
Settings:
- The options to be displayed from the menu are selected by ticking.
- 1m, 2m, 3m, 5m, 5m, 10m, 15m, 30m, h1, h4, h4, h6, h8, h12, daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly, 16 time zones in total can be displayed.
- The ‘Collapse when the price touches mitigate’ tab controls whether to collapse the box as the price moves into the inner region of the mitigate. If not selected, the size of the mitigate does not change.
- ‘Approach limit =(ATR / n)’ tab controls how close the price is to the fvg or mitigate. Instant ATR(10) value is calculated by dividing by the entered ‘n’ value.
- All boxes and lines are automatically removed from the screen when the beyond is closed.
- Colour selections, table, text features are controlled from the menu.
- Sessions hours are set as standard hours, the user can select special time zones. Timezone is set to GMT-4.
- On the candle when the price touches fvg or mitigate, the timeframe information of the POI is shown in the report table together with the graphical representation.
The benefits and differences :
1- We can evaluate the factors we use for setup together.
2- We are aware of what awaits us in the high time frame in the following candles.
3- It offers the user the opportunity to be selective with different candle selection options in fvg selection.
4- Mitige areas are actually unmitige areas because they have a price gap in front of them. The market likes to retest these areas.
5- Equal high/low zones are the levels that the price creates to accumulate liquidity or fails to go beyond (especially during high volume hours). Failure or crossing of the level may give a reversal or continuation prediction.
