Multi TF Oscillators Screener [TradingFinder] RSI / ATR / Stoch🔵 Introduction
The oscillator screener is designed to simplify multi-timeframe analysis by allowing traders and analysts to monitor one or multiple symbols across their preferred timeframes—all at the same time. Users can track a single symbol through various timeframes simultaneously or follow multiple symbols in selected intervals. This flexibility makes the tool highly effective for analyzing diverse markets concurrently.
At the core of this screener lie two essential oscillators: RSI (Relative Strength Index) and the Stochastic Oscillator. The RSI measures the speed and magnitude of recent price movements and helps identify overbought or oversold conditions.
It's one of the most reliable indicators for spotting potential reversals. The Stochastic Oscillator, on the other hand, compares the current price to recent highs and lows to detect momentum strength and potential trend shifts. It’s especially effective in identifying divergences and short-term reversal signals.
In addition to these two primary indicators, the screener also displays helpful supplementary data such as the dominant candlestick type (Bullish, Bearish, or Doji), market volatility indicators like ATR and TR, and the four key OHLC prices (Open, High, Low, Close) for each symbol and timeframe. This combination of data gives users a comprehensive technical view and allows for quick, side-by-side comparison of symbols and timeframes.
🔵 How to Use
This tool is built for users who want to view the behavior of a single symbol across several timeframes simultaneously. Instead of jumping between charts, users can quickly grasp the state of a symbol like gold or Bitcoin across the 15-minute, 1-hour, and daily timeframes at a glance. This is particularly useful for traders who rely on multi-timeframe confirmation to strengthen their analysis and decision-making.
The tool also supports simultaneous monitoring of multiple symbols. Users can select and track various assets based on the timeframes that matter most to them. For example, if you’re looking for entry opportunities, the screener allows you to compare setups across several markets side by side—making it easier to choose the most favorable trade. Whether you’re a scalper focused on low timeframes or a swing trader using higher ones, the tool adapts to your workflow.
The screener utilizes the widely-used RSI indicator, which ranges from 0 to 100 and highlights market exhaustion levels. Readings above 70 typically indicate potential pullbacks, while values below 30 may suggest bullish reversals. Viewing RSI across timeframes can reveal meaningful divergences or alignments that improve signal quality.
Another key indicator in the screener is the Stochastic Oscillator, which analyzes the closing price relative to its recent high-low range. When the %K and %D lines converge and cross within the overbought or oversold zones, it often signals a momentum reversal. This oscillator is especially responsive in lower timeframes, making it ideal for spotting quick entries or exits.
Beyond these oscillators, the table includes other valuable data such as candlestick type (bullish, bearish, or doji), volatility measures like ATR and TR, and complete OHLC pricing. This layered approach helps users understand both market momentum and structure at a glance.
Ultimately, this screener allows analysts and traders to gain a full market overview with just one look—empowering faster, more informed, and lower-risk decision-making. It not only saves time but also enhances the precision and clarity of technical analysis.

[GetSparx] Lacuna Pro⚡ Lacuna Pro – Institutional Liquidity Framework
This indicator is a premium Smart Money Concepts (SMC) trading toolkit designed to help traders identify high-probability entry and exit zones by visualizing real-time market inefficiencies. It combines Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), Break of Structure (BOS), Change of Character (CHoCH), and Supply & Demand Zones into a unified, configurable framework.
Unlike many public indicators that simply "overlay concepts", this indicator implements strict internal validation to filter out noise and provide only institutional-grade levels — making it a valuable execution layer for SMC-based strategies.
🧠 What the Script Does – and Why the Combination Matters
This is more than just a combination of known SMC tools — it's a complete workflow assistant:
-FVGs highlight where liquidity is likely resting due to institutional imbalance.
-BOS & CHoCH define structural context: whether the market is trending or shifting.
-Supply & Demand Zones show where institutions are likely to react.
-Each component works together to create a layered confluence system:
-FVG inside a Demand Zone after a Bullish CHoCH → High-probability Long Setup
-Bearish BOS into a Supply Zone + fresh Bearish FVG → High-probability Short Setup
📘 Core Concepts Explained
Fair Value Gap (FVG)
FVGs occur when price moves with strong momentum and leaves a gap between candles — suggesting inefficiency. Bullish FVGs lie below price; bearish ones above. Price often returns to these levels before continuing.
An FVG is detected when a three-candle sequence reveals a price imbalance:
- Bullish : Candle 2’s low is higher than Candle 1’s high
- Bearish : Candle 2’s high is lower than Candle 1’s low
These setups indicate a sudden burst of institutional momentum, often causing price to revisit the gap for rebalancing.
Break of Structure (BOS)
A BOS signals trend continuation when price breaks the previous swing high or low in the direction of the current trend.
The script uses a 3-bar pivot system to detect local swing highs and lows — a swing high forms when the highest candle is flanked by two lower highs on each side (and vice versa for swing lows).
A BOS is confirmed when price closes beyond the most recent swing point in alignment with the current trend direction.
Change of Character (CHoCH)
A CHoCH signals a potential trend reversal by breaking a structure level in the opposite direction of the prevailing trend.
It is detected when price breaks the most recent opposing swing and simultaneously flips the internal trend state.
CHoCH events always take precedence over BOS to avoid conflicting signals.
The internal trend engine ensures that these structural shifts are valid and not caused by random volatility.
Supply & Demand Zones
These zones mark institutional interest and are formed using precise price action rules — not arbitrary support/resistance.
A valid zone begins when a small-bodied base candle (such as a star or doji) appears at a local swing point. This candle must be followed by a strong impulse candle — either a bullish engulfing (for demand) or bearish breakout (for supply).
- Demand Zone : From the base candle's low to the impulse candle's high
- Supply Zone : From the base candle's high to the impulse candle's low
These zones represent likely institutional entries or exits, often acting as magnets or rejection areas. Once price decisively breaks through a zone, it is automatically removed — keeping the chart clean and relevant.
Zone Detection Logic – When a Zone Is Drawn or Skipped
Below are the precise rules used to determine whether a Supply or Demand Zone is valid and shown on the chart
A Supply or Demand Zone is only drawn if all of the following conditions are met:
-A small-bodied base candle forms at a local high or low (body size below threshold)
-The base candle is followed by a strong impulse candle (engulfing or breakout)
-The impulse direction matches the expected context (e.g., bearish impulse from swing high = Supply)
-The candle wicks do not invalidate the structure (e.g., no long opposing wick that retraces the move)
-The zone meets the minimum size threshold based on % or ATR filter
If any of these criteria are not satisfied, the zone is skipped to avoid false or weak levels.
This ensures only clean, institutional-grade Supply & Demand Zones are shown on the chart.
(e.g. small-bodied star + bullish engulfing at swing low = Demand Zone, or bearish breakout at swing high = Supply Zone).
🔍 Core Functionality & Original Features
1. 📉 Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) – Dynamic, Validated, and Clean
Unlike scripts that draw every gap, this script applies strict quality control to ensure only meaningful FVGs appear:
Minimum Threshold Filtering
Filters out small or noisy gaps by requiring each FVG to exceed a % or ATR-based size threshold. Prevents micro-gap clutter on lower timeframes.
Momentum Candle Verification
Requires a strong middle candle (candle 2) between two extremes. Large opposing wicks invalidate the setup.
Partial Fill Adjustment
When price partially fills a gap, the FVG box automatically shrinks to show only the remaining imbalance. If fully filled, the box is removed.
Multi-Timeframe Overlays
View institutional gaps from 15m, 1H, 4H, or Daily overlaid onto any chart for top-down analysis and entry refinement.
2. 🧱 Structural Shifts – BOS & CHoCH
Structural logic is built around pivot detection with real-time trend state awareness:
Pivot Logic (Customizable Strength)
Local highs/lows are detected using pivot length (default: 3 bars left/right). Breaks are only confirmed if they align with the internal trend state.
BOS = Continuation
Breaks a swing in trend direction (e.g., HL → HH → BOS at previous HH)
CHoCH = Reversal
Breaks a structure against trend (e.g., HH → HL → break of HL = Bearish CHoCH)
Conflict Resolution
If both BOS and CHoCH could trigger, CHoCH takes priority. This avoids false positives and ensures a single, clear structure signal per swing.
Styling & Visibility
All structure lines and labels are customizable — colors, line style (solid/dashed), and which signals to display (BOS/CHoCH/both).
3. 🧠 Supply & Demand Zones – Smart Detection & Maintenance
These zones are generated using strict price action logic, not arbitrary support/resistance lines:
-Formation Conditions
-Small-bodied "base candle" at a local high/low
-Followed by an impulse candle (bullish/bearish engulfing or breakout)
-Zone Bounds
- Demand : From base candle low to impulse high
- Supply : From base candle high to impulse low
Automatic Cleanup
Once price decisively pierces a zone, it’s automatically removed from the chart. This keeps the display relevant and clutter-free.
Multi-Timeframe Zones
Toggle zones from your current timeframe or overlay from 1H, 4H, and Daily — ideal for confluence stacking.
Zone Compression Filtering
Optional compression % ensures overlapping zones are combined logically to reduce redundancy.
🧩 How It Works Together – Practical Usage Flow
This indicator is designed to follow a structured workflow used by institutional-style traders:

📸 Screenshot Captions
Screenshot 1: CHoCH + Demand Zone + Bullish FVG
📌 Reversal Setup with Confluence
A Bullish CHoCH confirms a structural shift. Price enters a Demand Zone and reacts from an unfilled Bullish FVG, creating a high-probability long opportunity.
Screenshot 2: Bearish BOS + FVG Fill
📌 Trend Continuation Confirmation
Price breaks a swing low, triggering a Bearish BOS. A Bearish FVG forms and price returns to fill it before continuing lower — validating the trend and the gap.
Screenshot 3: Multi-Timeframe Overlay (FVGs from 1H and 4H)
📌 Top-Down Liquidity Mapping
Overlaid 1H and 4H FVGs provide institutional-level insight on lower timeframes. Combined with structure signals, this supports precise entry alignment across timeframes.
As price partially fills a bullish gap, the FVG box auto-adjusts to show only the remaining imbalance. Fully filled zones are automatically removed, keeping the chart clean.
Screenshot 4: Supply Zone Rejection
📌 Institutional Supply in Action
Price enters a Supply Zone formed from a base candle + bearish impulse. A sharp rejection confirms active sell-side interest at this level. Zone opgevuld box verdwijnt

⯁ WHAT IS THE MACD❓
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is a technical analysis indicator developed by Gerald Appel. It measures the relationship between two moving averages of a security’s price to identify changes in momentum, direction, and strength of a trend. The MACD is composed of three components: the MACD line, the signal line, and the histogram.
⯁ HOW TO USE THE MACD❓
The MACD is calculated by subtracting the 26-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) from the 12-period EMA. A 9-period EMA of the MACD line, called the signal line, is then plotted on top of the MACD line. The MACD histogram represents the difference between the MACD line and the signal line.
Here are the primary signals generated by the MACD:
Bullish Crossover: When the MACD line crosses above the signal line, indicating a potential buy signal.
Bearish Crossover: When the MACD line crosses below the signal line, indicating a potential sell signal.
Divergence: When the price of the security diverges from the MACD, suggesting a potential reversal.
Overbought/Oversold Conditions: Indicated by the MACD line moving far away from the signal line, though this is less common than in oscillators like the RSI.

Categorical Market Morphisms (CMM)Categorical Market Morphisms (CMM) - Where Abstract Algebra Transcends Reality
A Revolutionary Application of Category Theory and Homotopy Type Theory to Financial Markets
Bridging Pure Mathematics and Market Analysis Through Functorial Dynamics
Theoretical Foundation: The Mathematical Revolution
Traditional technical analysis operates on Euclidean geometry and classical statistics. The Categorical Market Morphisms (CMM) indicator represents a paradigm shift - the first application of Category Theory and Homotopy Type Theory to financial markets. This isn't merely another indicator; it's a mathematical framework that reveals the hidden algebraic structure underlying market dynamics.
Category Theory in Markets
Category theory, often called "the mathematics of mathematics," studies structures and the relationships between them. In market terms:
Objects = Market states (price levels, volume conditions, volatility regimes)
Morphisms = State transitions (price movements, volume changes, volatility shifts)
Functors = Structure-preserving mappings between timeframes
Natural Transformations = Coherent changes across multiple market dimensions
The Morphism Detection Engine
The core innovation lies in detecting morphisms - the categorical arrows representing market state transitions:
Morphism Strength = exp(-normalized_change × (3.0 / sensitivity))
Threshold = 0.3 - (sensitivity - 1.0) × 0.15
This exponential decay function captures how market transitions lose coherence over distance, while the dynamic threshold adapts to market sensitivity.
Functorial Analysis Framework
Markets must preserve structure across timeframes to maintain coherence. Our functorial analysis verifies this through composition laws:
Composition Error = |f(BC) × f(AB) - f(AC)| / |f(AC)|
Functorial Integrity = max(0, 1.0 - average_error)
When functorial integrity breaks down, market structure becomes unstable - a powerful early warning system.
Homotopy Type Theory: Path Equivalence in Markets
The Revolutionary Path Analysis
Homotopy Type Theory studies when different paths can be continuously deformed into each other. In markets, this reveals arbitrage opportunities and equivalent trading paths:
Path Distance = Σ(weight × |normalized_path1 - normalized_path2|)
Homotopy Score = (correlation + 1) / 2 × (1 - average_distance)
Equivalence Threshold = 1 / (threshold × √univalence_strength)
The Univalence Axiom in Trading
The univalence axiom states that equivalent structures can be treated as identical. In trading terms: when price-volume paths show homotopic equivalence with RSI paths, they represent the same underlying market structure - creating powerful confluence signals.
Universal Properties: The Four Pillars of Market Structure
Category theory's universal properties reveal fundamental market patterns:
Initial Objects (Market Bottoms)
Mathematical Definition = Unique morphisms exist FROM all other objects TO the initial object
Market Translation = All selling pressure naturally flows toward the bottom
Detection Algorithm:
Strength = local_low(0.3) + oversold(0.2) + volume_surge(0.2) + momentum_reversal(0.2) + morphism_flow(0.1)
Signal = strength > 0.4 AND morphism_exists
Terminal Objects (Market Tops)
Mathematical Definition = Unique morphisms exist FROM the terminal object TO all others
Market Translation = All buying pressure naturally flows away from the top
Product Objects (Market Equilibrium)
Mathematical Definition = Universal property combining multiple objects into balanced state
Market Translation = Price, volume, and volatility achieve multi-dimensional balance
Coproduct Objects (Market Divergence)
Mathematical Definition = Universal property representing branching possibilities
Market Translation = Market bifurcation points where multiple scenarios become possible
Consciousness Detection: Emergent Market Intelligence
The most groundbreaking feature detects market consciousness - when markets exhibit self-awareness through fractal correlations:
Consciousness Level = Σ(correlation_levels × weights) × fractal_dimension
Fractal Score = log(range_ratio) / log(memory_period)
Multi-Scale Awareness:
Micro = Short-term price-SMA correlations
Meso = Medium-term structural relationships
Macro = Long-term pattern coherence
Volume Sync = Price-volume consciousness
Volatility Awareness = ATR-change correlations
When consciousness_level > threshold , markets display emergent intelligence - self-organizing behavior that transcends simple mechanical responses.

Development Journey: Mathematical Innovation
The Challenge
Traditional indicators operate on classical mathematics - moving averages, oscillators, and pattern recognition. While useful, they miss the deeper algebraic structure that governs market behavior. Category theory and homotopy type theory offered a solution, but had never been applied to financial markets.
The Breakthrough
The key insight came from recognizing that market states form a category where:

Risk-Adjusted Momentum Oscillator# Risk-Adjusted Momentum Oscillator (RAMO): Momentum Analysis with Integrated Risk Assessment
## 1. Introduction
Momentum indicators have been fundamental tools in technical analysis since the pioneering work of Wilder (1978) and continue to play crucial roles in systematic trading strategies (Jegadeesh & Titman, 1993). However, traditional momentum oscillators suffer from a critical limitation: they fail to account for the risk context in which momentum signals occur. This oversight can lead to significant drawdowns during periods of market stress, as documented extensively in the behavioral finance literature (Kahneman & Tversky, 1979; Shefrin & Statman, 1985).
The Risk-Adjusted Momentum Oscillator addresses this gap by incorporating real-time drawdown metrics into momentum calculations, creating a self-regulating system that automatically adjusts signal sensitivity based on current risk conditions. This approach aligns with modern portfolio theory's emphasis on risk-adjusted returns (Markowitz, 1952) and reflects the sophisticated risk management practices employed by institutional investors (Ang, 2014).
## 2. Theoretical Foundation
### 2.1 Momentum Theory and Market Anomalies
The momentum effect, first systematically documented by Jegadeesh & Titman (1993), represents one of the most robust anomalies in financial markets. Subsequent research has confirmed momentum's persistence across various asset classes, time horizons, and geographic markets (Fama & French, 1996; Asness, Moskowitz & Pedersen, 2013). However, momentum strategies are characterized by significant time-varying risk, with particularly severe drawdowns during market reversals (Barroso & Santa-Clara, 2015).
### 2.2 Drawdown Analysis and Risk Management
Maximum drawdown, defined as the peak-to-trough decline in portfolio value, serves as a critical risk metric in professional portfolio management (Calmar, 1991). Research by Chekhlov, Uryasev & Zabarankin (2005) demonstrates that drawdown-based risk measures provide superior downside protection compared to traditional volatility metrics. The integration of drawdown analysis into momentum calculations represents a natural evolution toward more sophisticated risk-aware indicators.
### 2.3 Adaptive Smoothing and Market Regimes
The concept of adaptive smoothing in technical analysis draws from the broader literature on regime-switching models in finance (Hamilton, 1989). Perry Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average (1995) pioneered the application of efficiency ratios to adjust indicator responsiveness based on market conditions. RAMO extends this concept by incorporating volatility-based adaptive smoothing, allowing the indicator to respond more quickly during high-volatility periods while maintaining stability during quiet markets.
## 3. Methodology
### 3.1 Core Algorithm Design
The RAMO algorithm consists of several interconnected components:
#### 3.1.1 Risk-Adjusted Momentum Calculation
The fundamental innovation of RAMO lies in its risk adjustment mechanism:
Risk_Factor = 1 - (Current_Drawdown / Maximum_Drawdown × Scaling_Factor)
Risk_Adjusted_Momentum = Raw_Momentum × max(Risk_Factor, 0.05)
This formulation ensures that momentum signals are dampened during periods of high drawdown relative to historical maximums, implementing an automatic risk management overlay as advocated by modern portfolio theory (Markowitz, 1952).
#### 3.1.2 Multi-Algorithm Momentum Framework
RAMO supports three distinct momentum calculation methods:
1. Rate of Change: Traditional percentage-based momentum (Pring, 2002)
2. Price Momentum: Absolute price differences
3. Log Returns: Logarithmic returns preferred for volatile assets (Campbell, Lo & MacKinlay, 1997)
This multi-algorithm approach accommodates different asset characteristics and volatility profiles, addressing the heterogeneity documented in cross-sectional momentum studies (Asness et al., 2013).
### 3.2 Leading Indicator Components
#### 3.2.1 Momentum Acceleration Analysis
The momentum acceleration component calculates the second derivative of momentum, providing early signals of trend changes:
Momentum_Acceleration = EMA(Momentum_t - Momentum_{t-n}, n)
This approach draws from the physics concept of acceleration and has been applied successfully in financial time series analysis (Treadway, 1969).
#### 3.2.2 Linear Regression Prediction
RAMO incorporates linear regression-based prediction to project momentum values forward:
Predicted_Momentum = LinReg_Value + (LinReg_Slope × Forward_Offset)
This predictive component aligns with the literature on technical analysis forecasting (Lo, Mamaysky & Wang, 2000) and provides leading signals for trend changes.
#### 3.2.3 Volume-Based Exhaustion Detection
The exhaustion detection algorithm identifies potential reversal points by analyzing the relationship between momentum extremes and volume patterns:
Exhaustion = |Momentum| > Threshold AND Volume < SMA(Volume, 20)
This approach reflects the established principle that sustainable price movements require volume confirmation (Granville, 1963; Arms, 1989).
### 3.3 Statistical Normalization and Robustness
RAMO employs Z-score normalization with outlier protection to ensure statistical robustness:
Z_Score = (Value - Mean) / Standard_Deviation
Normalized_Value = max(-3.5, min(3.5, Z_Score))
This normalization approach follows best practices in quantitative finance for handling extreme observations (Taleb, 2007) and ensures consistent signal interpretation across different market conditions.
### 3.4 Adaptive Threshold Calculation
Dynamic thresholds are calculated using Bollinger Band methodology (Bollinger, 1992):
Upper_Threshold = Mean + (Multiplier × Standard_Deviation)
Lower_Threshold = Mean - (Multiplier × Standard_Deviation)
This adaptive approach ensures that signal thresholds adjust to changing market volatility, addressing the critique of fixed thresholds in technical analysis (Taylor & Allen, 1992).
## 4. Implementation Details
### 4.1 Adaptive Smoothing Algorithm
The adaptive smoothing mechanism adjusts the exponential moving average alpha parameter based on market volatility:
Volatility_Percentile = Percentrank(Volatility, 100)
Adaptive_Alpha = Min_Alpha + ((Max_Alpha - Min_Alpha) × Volatility_Percentile / 100)
This approach ensures faster response during volatile periods while maintaining smoothness during stable conditions, implementing the adaptive efficiency concept pioneered by Kaufman (1995).
### 4.2 Risk Environment Classification
RAMO classifies market conditions into three risk environments:
- Low Risk: Current_DD < 30% × Max_DD
- Medium Risk: 30% × Max_DD ≤ Current_DD < 70% × Max_DD
- High Risk: Current_DD ≥ 70% × Max_DD
This classification system enables conditional signal generation, with long signals filtered during high-risk periods—a approach consistent with institutional risk management practices (Ang, 2014).
## 5. Signal Generation and Interpretation
### 5.1 Entry Signal Logic
RAMO generates enhanced entry signals through multiple confirmation layers:
1. Primary Signal: Crossover between indicator and signal line
2. Risk Filter: Confirmation of favorable risk environment for long positions
3. Leading Component: Early warning signals via acceleration analysis
4. Exhaustion Filter: Volume-based reversal detection
This multi-layered approach addresses the false signal problem common in traditional technical indicators (Brock, Lakonishok & LeBaron, 1992).
### 5.2 Divergence Analysis
RAMO incorporates both traditional and leading divergence detection:
- Traditional Divergence: Price and indicator divergence over 3-5 periods
- Slope Divergence: Momentum slope versus price direction
- Acceleration Divergence: Changes in momentum acceleration
This comprehensive divergence analysis framework draws from Elliott Wave theory (Prechter & Frost, 1978) and momentum divergence literature (Murphy, 1999).
## 6. Empirical Advantages and Applications
### 6.1 Risk-Adjusted Performance
The risk adjustment mechanism addresses the fundamental criticism of momentum strategies: their tendency to experience severe drawdowns during market reversals (Daniel & Moskowitz, 2016). By automatically reducing position sizing during high-drawdown periods, RAMO implements a form of dynamic hedging consistent with portfolio insurance concepts (Leland, 1980).
### 6.2 Regime Awareness
RAMO's adaptive components enable regime-aware signal generation, addressing the regime-switching behavior documented in financial markets (Hamilton, 1989; Guidolin, 2011). The indicator automatically adjusts its parameters based on market volatility and risk conditions, providing more reliable signals across different market environments.
### 6.3 Institutional Applications
The sophisticated risk management overlay makes RAMO particularly suitable for institutional applications where drawdown control is paramount. The indicator's design philosophy aligns with the risk budgeting approaches used by hedge funds and institutional investors (Roncalli, 2013).
## 7. Limitations and Future Research
### 7.1 Parameter Sensitivity
Like all technical indicators, RAMO's performance depends on parameter selection. While default parameters are optimized for broad market applications, asset-specific calibration may enhance performance. Future research should examine optimal parameter selection across different asset classes and market conditions.
### 7.2 Market Microstructure Considerations
RAMO's effectiveness may vary across different market microstructure environments. High-frequency trading and algorithmic market making have fundamentally altered market dynamics (Aldridge, 2013), potentially affecting momentum indicator performance.
### 7.3 Transaction Cost Integration
Future enhancements could incorporate transaction cost analysis to provide net-return-based signals, addressing the implementation shortfall documented in practical momentum strategy applications (Korajczyk & Sadka, 2004).

Not-So-Average True Range (nsATR)Not-So-Average True Range (nsATR)
*By Sherlock_MacGyver*
---
Long Story Short
The nsATR is a complete overhaul of traditional ATR analysis. It was designed to solve the fundamental issues with standard ATR, such as lag, lack of contextual awareness, and equal treatment of all volatility events.
Key innovations include:
* A smarter ATR that reacts dynamically when price movement exceeds normal expectations.
* Envelope zones that distinguish between moderate and extreme volatility conditions.
* A long-term ATR baseline that adds historical context to current readings.
* A compression detection system that flags when the market is coiled and ready to break out.
This indicator is designed for traders who want to see volatility the way it actually behaves — contextually, asymmetrically, and with predictive power.
---
What Is This Thing?
Standard ATR (Average True Range) has limitations:
* It smooths too slowly (using Wilder's RMA), which delays detection of meaningful moves.
* It lacks context — no way to know if current volatility is high or low relative to history.
* It treats all volatility equally, regardless of scale or significance.
nsATR** was built from scratch to overcome these weaknesses by applying:
* Amplification of large True Range spikes.
* Visual envelope zones for detecting volatility regimes.
* A long-term context line to anchor current readings.
* Multi-factor compression analysis to anticipate breakouts.
---
Core Features
1. Breach Detection with Amplification
When True Range exceeds a user-defined threshold (e.g., ATR × 1.2), it is amplified using a power function to reflect nonlinear volatility. This amplified value is then smoothed and cascades into future ATR values, affecting the indicator beyond a single bar.
2. Direction Tagging
Volatility spikes are tagged as upward or downward based on basic price momentum (close vs previous close). This provides visual context for how volatility is behaving in real-time.
3. Envelope Zones
Two adaptive envelopes highlight the current volatility regime:
* Stage 1: Moderate volatility (default: ATR × 1.5)
* Stage 2: Extreme volatility (default: ATR × 2.0)
Breaching these zones signals meaningful expansion in volatility.
4. Long-Term Context Baseline
A 200-period simple moving average of the classic ATR establishes whether current readings are above or below long-term volatility expectations.
5. Multi-Signal Compression Detection
Flags potential breakout conditions when:
* ATR is below its long-term baseline
* Price Bollinger Bands are compressed
* RSI Bollinger Bands are also compressed
All three signals must align to plot a "Volatility Confluence Dot" — an early warning of potential expansion.
---
Chart Outputs
In the Indicator Pane:
* Breach Amplified ATR (Orange line)
* Classic ATR baseline (White line)
* Long-Term context baseline (Cyan line)
* Stage 1 and Stage 2 Envelopes (Purple and Yellow lines)
On the Price Chart:
* Triangles for breach direction (green/red)
* Diamonds for compression zones
* Optional background coloring for visual clarity
---
Alerts
Built-in alert conditions:
1. ATR breach detected
2. Stage 1 envelope breached
3. Stage 2 envelope breached
4. Compression zone detected
---
Customization
All components are modular. Traders can adjust:
* Display toggles for each visual layer
* Colors and line widths
* Breach threshold and amplification power
* Envelope sensitivity
* Compression sensitivity and lookback windows
Some options are disabled by default to reduce clutter but can be turned on for more aggressive signal detection.
---
Real-Time Behavior (Non-Repainting Clarification)
The indicator updates in real time on the current bar as new data comes in. This is expected behavior for live trading tools. Once a bar closes, values do not change. In other words, the indicator *does not repaint history* — but the current bar can update dynamically until it closes.
---
Use Cases
* Day traders: Use compression zones to anticipate volatility surges.
* Swing traders: Use envelope breaches for regime awareness.
* System developers: Replace standard ATR in your logic for better responsiveness.
* Risk managers: Use directional volatility signals to better model exposure.

Delta Volume Color CoderDelta Volume Color Coder - Smart Money Footprint Visualizer
OVERVIEW
The Delta Volume Color Coder is a clean, minimalist indicator that highlights candles with exceptional delta volume, helping you instantly identify where smart money is actively trading. Unlike complex volume indicators that clutter your chart, this tool simply colors candles when institutional-level volume appears, leaving your normal price action untouched.
WHAT IS DELTA VOLUME?
Delta volume represents the difference between buying and selling pressure within each candle. Positive delta indicates more aggressive buying, while negative delta shows stronger selling. When delta reaches extreme levels, it often signals institutional activity or significant market events.
KEY FEATURES
- Clean Chart Design - Only colors candles with significant delta volume
- No Chart Compression - Overlay indicator that doesn't distort price scales
- Smart Detection - Automatically calculates dynamic thresholds based on recent activity
- Customizable Thresholds - Adjust sensitivity to match your trading style
- Multiple Calculation Methods - Classic or Range-Based delta calculations
COLOR CODING (Default)
- White Candles - Extreme positive delta (massive institutional buying)
- Green Candles - High positive delta (strong buying pressure)
- Red Candles - High negative delta (strong selling pressure)
- Violet Candles - Extreme negative delta (massive institutional selling)
- Normal Candles - Unchanged (standard TradingView red/green)
HOW TO USE
1. Add to any chart - Works on all timeframes and instruments
2. Look for colored candles - These mark significant volume events
3. White/Violet candles often mark reversals or breakouts
4. Multiple colored candles in sequence indicate strong trends
5. Colored candles at support/resistance levels are especially significant
SETTINGS EXPLAINED
- Lookback Period (20) - Bars used to calculate average delta
- High Delta Threshold (1.5x) - Triggers green/red coloring
- Extreme Delta Threshold (2.5x) - Triggers white/violet coloring
- Delta Calculation - Classic (open/close) or Range Based (close position)
- Color Wicks - Option to color entire candle or just the body
- All colors fully customizable
TRADING APPLICATIONS
- Reversal Detection - White/violet candles often mark exhaustion points
- Breakout Confirmation - Colored candles on breakouts show conviction
- Support/Resistance - High delta at key levels indicates significance
- Trend Strength - Frequency of colored candles shows trend momentum
- Institutional Tracking - Extreme delta reveals where big players are active
BEST PRACTICES
- Lower timeframes (1-15m) - Use for scalping and day trading entries
- Higher timeframes (1H+) - Identify major accumulation/distribution
- Combine with price action - Most effective at key technical levels
- Watch for clusters - Multiple extreme candles = major event
- Volume confirmation - Extreme delta + high volume = highest significance
TIPS FOR SUCCESS
1. White candles after downtrends often mark bottoms
2. Violet candles after uptrends often mark tops
3. Consecutive colored candles confirm trend direction
4. Lack of colored candles = low volatility, potential breakout ahead
5. Extreme delta at round numbers indicates institutional interest
WHY THIS INDICATOR?
- Simple Yet Powerful - No complex analysis needed
- Instant Visual Feedback - See institutional activity at a glance
- Clean Charts - No overlays, lines, or clutter
- Real-Time Detection - Updates with each new candle
- Universal Application - Works on stocks, forex, crypto, futures

Perfect for traders who want institutional-level insights without the complexity. Just add to your chart and let the colors guide you to where the real action is happening.
ICT Opening Range Projections (tristanlee85)ICT Opening Range Projections
This indicator visualizes key price levels based on ICT's (Inner Circle Trader) "Opening Range" concept. This 30-minute time interval establishes price levels that the algorithm will refer to throughout the session. The indicator displays these levels, including standard deviation projections, internal subdivisions (quadrants), and the opening price.
🟪 What It Does
The Opening Range is a crucial 30-minute window where market algorithms establish significant price levels. ICT theory suggests this range forms the basis for daily price movement.
This script helps you:
Mark the high, low, and opening price of each session.
Divide the range into quadrants (premium, discount, and midpoint/Consequent Encroachment).
Project potential price targets beyond the range using configurable standard deviation multiples .
🟪 How to Use It
This tool aids in time-based technical analysis rooted in ICT's Opening Range model, helping you observe price interaction with algorithmic levels.
Example uses include:
Identifying early structural boundaries.
Observing price behavior within premium/discount zones.
Visualizing initial displacement from the range to anticipate future moves.
Comparing price reactions at projected standard deviation levels.
Aligning price action with significant times like London or NY Open.
Note: This indicator provides a visual framework; it does not offer trade signals or interpretations.
🟪 Key Information
Time Zone: New York time (ET) is required on your chart.
Sessions: Supports multiple sessions, including NY midnight, NY AM, NY PM, and three custom timeframes.
Time Interval: Supports multi-timeframe up to 15 minutes. Best used on a 1-minute chart for accuracy.
🟪 Session Options
The Opening Range interval is configurable for up to 6 sessions:
Pre-defined ICT Sessions:
NY Midnight: 12:00 AM – 12:30 AM ET
NY AM: 9:30 AM – 10:00 AM ET
NY PM: 1:30 PM – 2:00 PM ET
Custom Sessions:
Three user-defined start/end time pairs.
This example shows a custom session from 03:30 - 04:00:
🟪 Understanding the Levels
The Opening Price is the open of the first 1-minute candle within the chosen session.
At session close, the Opening Range is calculated using its High and Low . An optional swing-based mode uses swing highs/lows for range boundaries.
The range is divided into quadrants by its midpoint ( Consequent Encroachment or CE):
Upper Quadrant: CE to high (premium).
Lower Quadrant: Low to CE (discount).
These subdivisions help visualize internal range dynamics, where price often reacts during algorithmic delivery.
🟪 Working with Ranges
By default, the range is determined by the highest high and lowest low of the 30-minute session:
A range can also be determined by the highest/lowest swing points:
Quadrants outline the premium and discount of a range that price will reference:
Small ranges still follow the same algorithmic logic, but may be deemed insignificant for one's trading. These can be filtered in the settings by specifying a minimum ticks limit. In this example, the range is 42 ticks (10.5 points) but the indicator is configured for 80 ticks (20 points). We can select which levels will plot if the range is below the limit. Here, only the 00:00 opening price is plotted:
You may opt to include the range high/low, quadrants, and projections as well. This will plot a red (configurable) range bracket to indicate it is below the limit while plotting the levels:
🟪 Price Projections
Projections extend beyond the Opening Range using standard deviations, framing the market beyond the initial session and identifying potential targets. You define the standard deviation multiples (e.g., 1.0, 1.5, 2.0).
Both positive and negative extensions are displayed, symmetrically projected from the range's high and low.
The Dynamic Levels option plots only the next projection level once price crosses the previous extreme. For example, only the 0.5 STDEV level plots until price reaches it, then the 1.0 level appears, and so on. This continues up to your defined maximum projections, or indefinitely if standard deviations are set to 0.
This example shows dynamic levels for a total of 6 sessions, only 1 of which meet a configured minimum limit of 50 ticks:
Small ranges followed by significant displacement are impacted the most with the number of levels plotted. You may hide projections when configuring the minimum ticks.
A fixed standard deviation will plot levels in both directions, regardless of the price range. Here, we plot up to 3.0 which hiding projections for small ranges:

Impulse Profile Zones [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Impulse Profile Zones is a volume-based tool designed to highlight high-impact candles and visualize hidden liquidity zones inside them using microstructure data. It’s ideal for identifying volume concentration and potential reaction points during impulsive market moves.
Whenever a candle exceeds a specified size threshold, this indicator captures its structure and overlays a detailed intrabar volume profile (from a 10x lower timeframe), allowing traders to analyze the distribution of interest within powerful market impulses.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Filters candles that exceed a user-defined threshold by size.
For qualifying candles, retrieves lower timeframe price and volume data.
Divides the candle’s body into 10 volume bins and calculates the volume per zone. Highlights the bin with the highest volume as the Point of Control (POC) .
Each POC line extends forward until a new impulse is detected.
🔵 FEATURES
Impulse Candle Detection:
Triggers only when a candle’s body size is larger than the defined threshold.
Lower Timeframe Profiling:
Aggregates 10-bin volume data from a lower timeframe (typically 1/10 of current TF).
Volume Distribution Bars:
Each bin displays a stylized bar using unicode block characters (e.g., ▇▇▇, ▇▇ or ▇--).
The bar size reflects the relative volume intensity.
POC Zone Mapping:
The bin with the highest volume is marked with a bold horizontal line.
Its value is labeled and extended until the next valid impulse.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use large candle profiles to assess which price levels inside a move were most actively traded.
Watch the POC line as a magnet for future price interaction (support/resistance or reaction).
Combine with market structure or order block indicators to identify confluence levels.
Adjust the “Filter Large Candles” input to detect more or fewer events based on volatility.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Impulse Profile Zones is a hybrid microstructure tool that bridges lower timeframe volume with higher timeframe impulse candles. By revealing where most of the volume occurred inside large moves, traders gain a deeper view into hidden liquidity, enabling smarter trade entries and more confident profit-taking zones.
Metrics TJ
📘 Metrics TJ
Author: Trade Journey
Type: Market Metrics / Intraday
Timeframes:
Context: 1H
Entry Points: 15m
---
🎯 Core Idea
Metrics TJ is a powerful market metrics tool designed for intraday traders. It provides essential market data — including volume, ATR (Average True Range), and correlation with other assets — to help you make informed decisions. By combining multiple indicators into a unified view, this tool allows you to spot key trends, volatility, and relative strength within a single chart.
---
🔍 Strategy Logic
1. Context (1H)
Before making intraday decisions on smaller timeframes (such as the 15m chart), use the 1H timeframe to understand the broader market context:
Look at candle structure, levels, volume, and other signals to identify if the market is trending or consolidating.
Example: If the 1H chart shows rising volume and a series of higher highs and lows, it indicates an uptrend.
2. Core Metrics
Day Volume (DV): Total volume traded over the past 24 hours. A sharp increase may indicate increased market interest and potential for higher volatility.
Average Volume (AV): A smoothed average volume over a set period. Spikes in average volume can highlight unusual activity, signaling potential moves.
ATR (NATR): Measures the market's volatility. A high ATR means the market is moving more dynamically, often correlating with larger price moves.
Correlation (CR): Measures how strongly the asset is correlated with a reference pair, such as BTC. A strong positive or negative correlation could indicate an impending move or reversal.
3. Trade Filter
To improve the accuracy of the strategy:
Use Volume and ATR thresholds to filter out low-volatility or range-bound conditions.
Correlation with a reference asset helps identify when the market's behavior diverges from its usual pattern.
---
📈 Example of Entry Logic
1. On 1H: The market is in a confirmed uptrend, with rising volume and a series of higher highs.
2. On 15m: You observe an increase in Day Volume and Average Volume signaling potential for a breakout.
3. ATR is high, showing the market is volatile — indicating a good environment for intraday trading.
4. Correlation with BTC shows strong positive correlation, suggesting a price move in sync with the larger crypto market.
5. Trade Decision:
Enter long if the conditions are met: Volume spikes, ATR confirms volatility, and correlation supports the price direction.
Exit if volume decreases, ATR drops, or if the correlation weakens.

📊 Why It Works
Day Volume and Average Volume help identify unusual activity, potentially signaling a price move.
ATR highlights periods of high volatility, which are crucial for intraday trading.
Correlation with major assets (like BTC) gives additional context on the market's broader movement, improving the probability of profitable trades.
Using a combination of volume and ATR reduces the likelihood of false signals, especially in choppy or low-volume environments.
---
🔔 Recommendations
Best used in strong trending markets where volume and volatility are in sync.
Avoid trading in range-bound conditions where price action lacks momentum.
Use this strategy as a supplement to other technical indicators or as part of a larger trading system.

✅ Conclusion
Metrics TJ provides a holistic view of the market, combining key metrics to help traders make smarter intraday decisions. By focusing on volume, volatility, and correlation, it can help you spot high-probability trades and avoid noise.
Try it on demo, adjust the settings to fit your trading style, and start identifying profitable opportunities!

📌 Important Note:
This indicator is best used in combination with higher timeframe analysis. Always consider the broader market context before making any trades.
WMB Oscillator | [DeV]The "WMB Oscillator" indicator is a multi-factor momentum and volatility indicator designed to give traders a dynamic edge in identifying trend strength, market pressure, and potential turning points. By combining three powerful tools—Williams %R, Money Flow Index, and Bollinger Band Width—this oscillator presents a single histogram that visually represents the interplay between overbought/oversold levels, volume-weighted pressure, and volatility expansion. Use it to anticipate trend shifts, confirm entries, or avoid traps in ranging markets.
Williams %R:
Williams %R measures the closing price's position relative to the recent high-low range over a defined period. It outputs a value between 0 and -100, where values closer to -100 suggest oversold conditions, and those near 0 indicate overbought. In this oscillator, the raw %R is normalized between your defined overbought and oversold thresholds, allowing it to integrate seamlessly into the combined signal without distortion from price scale differences.
Money Flow Index (MFI):
The MFI gauges buying and selling pressure using both price and volume. It calculates the typical price for each bar, multiplies it by volume, and compares positive versus negative money flows over time. Normalized between your custom thresholds, the MFI component helps highlight when a move is driven by real conviction (volume) rather than weak price fluctuation, enhancing the signal’s reliability.
Bollinger Band Width (BB Width):
BB Width quantifies volatility by measuring the percentage difference between the upper and lower Bollinger Bands relative to their moving average. When volatility contracts, BB Width narrows—often preceding explosive moves. When it expands, volatility is peaking. Here, the raw BB Width is detrended using its moving average and scaled with a user-defined multiplier to reflect its deviation strength.
Why Combine These:
Each of these three metrics captures a unique dimension of market behavior: %R tracks momentum in price extremes, MFI confirms the move’s strength through volume, and BB Width anticipates volatility surges. Combined, they form a balanced oscillator that reacts fluidly to market changes while filtering out noise. The result is a nuanced, multi-angle view of the market's internal dynamics, enabling smarter, more confident trading decisions.

Divergence Macro Sentiment Indicator (DMSI)The Divergence Macro Sentiment Indicator (DMSI)
Think of DMSI as your daily “mood ring” for the markets. It boils down the tug-of-war between growth assets (S&P 500, copper, oil) and safe havens (gold, VIX) into one clear histogram—so you instantly know if the bulls have broad backing or are charging ahead with one foot tied behind.
🔍 What You’re Seeing
Green bars (above zero): Risk-on conviction.
Equities and commodities are rallying while gold and volatility retreat.
Red bars (below zero): Risk-off caution.
Gold or VIX are climbing even as stocks rise—or stocks aren’t fully joined by oil/copper.
Zero line: The line in the sand between “full-steam ahead” and “proceed with care.”
📈 How to Read It
Cross-Zero Signals
Bullish trigger: DMSI flips up through zero after a red stretch → fresh long entries.
Bearish trigger: DMSI tumbles below zero from green territory → tighten stops or go defensive.
Divergence Warnings
If SPX makes new highs but DMSI is rolling over (lower green bars or red), that’s your early red flag—rallies may fizzle.
Strength Confirmation
On pullbacks, only buy dips when DMSI ≥ 0. When DMSI is deeply positive, you can be more aggressive on position size or add leverage.
💡 Trade Guidance & Use Cases
Trend Filter: Only take your S&P or sector-ETF long setups when DMSI is non-negative—avoids hollow rallies.
Macro Pair Trades:
Deep red DMSI: go long gold or gold miners (GLD, GDX).
Strong green DMSI: lean into cyclicals, industrials, even energy names.
Risk Management:
Scale out as DMSI fades into negative territory mid-trade.
Scale in or add to winners when it stays bullish.
Swing Confirmation: Overlay on any oscillator or price-pattern system—accept signals only when the macro tide is flowing in your favour.
🚀 Why It Works
Markets don’t move in a vacuum. When stocks rally but the “real-economy” metals and volatility aren’t cooperating, something’s off under the hood. DMSI catches those cross-asset cracks before price alone can—and gives you an early warning system for smarter entries, tighter risk, and bigger gains when the macro trend really kicks in.
RunRox - Entry Model🎯 RunRox Entry Model is an all-in-one reversal-pattern indicator engineered to help traders accurately identify key price-reversal points on their charts. It will be part of our premium indicator package and improve the effectiveness of your trading strategies.
The primary concept of this indicator is liquidity analysis, making it ideal for Smart Money traders and for trading within market structure. At the same time, the indicator is universal and can be integrated into any strategy. Below, I will outline the full concept of the indicator and its settings so you can better understand how it works.
🧬 CONCEPT
In the screenshot below, I’ll schematically illustrate the core idea of this indicator. It’s one of the patterns that the indicator automatically detects on the chart using a two-timeframe approach. We use the higher timeframe to identify liquidity zones, and the lower timeframe to capture liquidity removal and structure breaks. The schematic is shown in the screenshot below.
Our indicator includes three entry models in total , and I will discuss its functionality and features in more detail later in this post.
💡 FEATURES
Three entry models
PO3 HTF Bar
Entry Area
Optimization for each Entry Area
Filters
HTF FVG
Alert customization
Next, we will examine each entry model in detail.
🟠 ENTRY MODEL 1
The first model is the core one we’ll work with; all other models rely on its structure and construction. In the screenshot below, I’ll schematically show the complete model.
As shown in the screenshot above, we display higher-timeframe candles on the current chart to better visualize the entry model and keep the trader informed of what’s happening on the larger timeframe. The screenshot also highlights both the Long and Short models, as well as the Entry Area, which I will explain in more detail below.
The schematic model on the lower timeframe is shown in the screenshot above. It illustrates that after the Entry Model forms, we draw the Entry Area on the next candle and wait for a price pullback into this zone for the optimal trade entry. Statistically, before moving higher, the price typically revisits the Entry Area, covering the imbalances created by MSS; thus, the Entry Area represents the ideal entry point.
🟩 Entry Area
Once the Entry Model has formed, we focus on identifying the optimal pullback zone for taking a position. To determine which retracement area performs best, we conducted extensive historical backtesting on potential zones and selected those that consistently delivered the strongest results. This process yields Entry Areas with the highest probability of a successful reversal.
On the screenshot above, you can see an example of the Entry Area and which zones carry a higher versus lower probability of reversal. Zones rendered with greater transparency have historically delivered weaker results than the more opaque zones. The deeper-colored areas represent the optimal entry zones and can improve your risk-reward ratio by allowing you to enter at more favorable prices.
It’s important to remember that the entire Entry Area functions as a potential zone for scaling into a position. However, if your risk-to-reward ratio isn’t favorable, you can wait for the price to retrace to lower levels within the Entry Area and enter with a more attractive risk-to-reward.
🟢 Pattern Rating
Each entry model receives a rating in the form of green circles next to its name 🟢. The rating ranges from one to four circles, based on the historical performance of similar patterns. To calculate this rating, we backtest past data by analyzing candle behavior during the model’s formation and assign circles according to how similar patterns performed historically.
Example Ratings:
🟢 – One circle
🟢🟢 – Two circles
🟢🟢🟢 – Three circles
🟢🟢🟢🟢 – Four circles
The more green circles a model has, the more reliable it is—but it’s crucial to rely on your own analysis when identifying strong reversal points on the chart. This rating reflects the model’s historical performance and does not guarantee future results, so keep that in mind!
Below is a screenshot showing four model variations with different ratings on the chart.
⚠️ Unconfirmed Pattern
Entry Model 1 is designed so that, until the higher-timeframe candle closes, the pattern remains unconfirmed and is hidden on the chart. For traders who prefer to see setups as they form, there’s a dedicated feature that displays the unconfirmed pattern at the moment of its appearance - triggered by the Market Structure Shift - before the HTF candle closes. The screenshot below shows what the pattern looks like prior to confirmation.
‼️IMPORTANT: Until the pattern is confirmed and the higher-timeframe candle has closed, the model may disappear from the chart if price reverses and the HTF candle closes below the previous bar. Therefore, this mode is suitable only for experienced traders who want to see market moves in advance. Remember that the pattern can be removed from the chart, so we recommend waiting for the HTF candle to close before deciding to enter a trade.‼️
✂️ Filters
For the primary model, there are four filters designed to enhance entry points or exclude less-confirmed patterns. The filters available in the indicator are:
Bounce Filter
Market Shift Mode
Same Wave Filter
Only with Divergence
I will explain how each of these filters works below.
- Bounce Filter
The Bounce Filter identifies significant deviations of price from its mean and only displays the Entry Model once the asset’s price moves beyond the average level. The screenshot below illustrates how this appears on the chart.
The actual average-price calculation is more sophisticated than what’s shown in the screenshot, that image is just an illustrative example. When the price deviates significantly from the N-bar average, we start looking for the Entry Model. This approach works particularly well in range-bound markets without a clear trend, as it lets you trade strong deviations from the mean.
- Market Shift Mode
This filter works by detecting the initial impulse that triggered the liquidity sweep on the previous higher-timeframe candle, and then holding the Market Structure Shift level at that point after the sweep. If the filter is turned off, price may move higher following the liquidity removal, creating a new MSS level and potentially producing a false structure shift and entry signal on the formed model.
This filter helps you more accurately identify genuine shifts - but keep in mind that the model can still perform well without it, so choose the setting that best suits your trading style.
- Same Wave Filter
The Same Wave Filter removes entry models that form without a clear lower-timeframe structure when liquidity is swept from the previous higher-timeframe candle. In other words, if the prior HTF candle and the current one belong to the same impulse wave - without any retracements on the LTF - the model is filtered out.
Keep in mind that this filter may also exclude patterns that could have produced positive results, so whether to enable it depends on your trading system.
- Only with Divergence
The Only with Divergence filter detects divergence between the lows of successive candles and indicators like RSI. When the low that swept liquidity diverges from the previous candle’s low, the indicator displays a “DIV” label. Although RSI is cited as an example, our divergence calculation is more advanced. This filter highlights patterns where low divergence signals genuine liquidity manipulation and a likely aggressive price reversal.
🌀 Model Settings
Trade Direction: Choose whether to display models for Long or Short trades.
Fractal: Select between automatic fractal detection—which adapts the lower-timeframe (LTF) and higher-timeframe (HTF) candles—or Custom.
Custom Fractal: When Custom is selected, manually specify the LTF and HTF timeframes used to detect the patterns.
History Pattern Limit: Set the maximum number of patterns to display on the chart to keep it clean and uncluttered.
🎨 Model Style
You can flexibly customize the model’s appearance by choosing your preferred line thickness, color, and the other settings we discussed above.
🔵 ENTRY MODEL 2
This model appears under specific conditions when Model 1 cannot form. It’s a price-reversal model constructed according to different rules than the first model. The screenshot below shows how it looks on the chart.
This model forms less frequently than Model 1 but delivers equally strong performance and is displayed as a position-entry zone.
Like the Entry Area in Entry Model 1, this zone is calculated automatically and highlights the best entry levels: areas that showed the strongest historical results are rendered in a brighter shade.
🎨 Model Style
You can flexibly customize the style of Entry Model 2 - its color, opacity, visibility, and the average price of the previous candle.
🟢 ENTRY MODEL 3
Entry Model 3 is a continuation pattern that only forms after Entry Model 1 has completed and delivered the necessary price move to trigger Model 3.
Below is a schematic illustration of how Model 3 is intended to work.
🎨 Model Style
As with the previous models, you can flexibly customize the style of this zone.
⬆️ HTF CANDLES
One of the standout features of this indicator is the ability to plot higher-timeframe (HTF) candles directly on your lower-timeframe (LTF) chart, giving you clear visualization of the entry models and insight into what’s unfolding on the larger timeframe.
You can fully customize the HTF candles - select their style, the number of bars displayed, and tweak various settings to match your personal trading style.
HTF FVG
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) can also be drawn on the HTF candles themselves, enabling you to spot key liquidity or interest zones at a glance, without switching between timeframes.
Additionally, you can view all significant historical HTF highs and lows, with demarcation lines showing where each HTF candle begins and ends.
All these options let you tailor the HTF candle display on your chart and monitor multiple timeframes’ trends in a single view.

✅ USAGE EXAMPLES
Now I’ll demonstrate several ways to apply this indicator across different trading strategies.
Primarily, it’s most effective within the Smart Money framework - where liquidity and manipulation are the core focus - so it integrates seamlessly into your SMC-based approach.
However, it can also be employed in other strategies, such as classic technical analysis or Elliott Wave, to capitalize on reversal points on the chart.
Example 1
The first example illustrates forming a downtrend using a Smart Money strategy. After the market structure shifts and the first BOS is broken, we begin looking for a short entry.
Once Entry Model 1 is established, a Fair Value Gap appears, which we use as our position-entry zone. The nearest target becomes the newly formed BOS level.
In this trade, it was crucial to wait for a strong downtrend to develop before hunting for entries. Therefore, we waited for the first BOS to break and entered the trade to ride the continuation of the downtrend down to the next BOS level.
Example 2
The next example illustrates a downtrend developing with a Fair Value Gap on the 1-hour timeframe. The FVG is also displayed directly on the HTF candles in the chart.
The pattern forms within the HTF Fair Value Gap, indicating that we can balance this inefficiency and ride the continuation of the downtrend.
The target can simply be a 1:2 or 1:3 risk–reward ratio, as in our case.
📌 CONCLUSION
These two examples illustrate how this indicator can be used to identify reversals or trend continuations. In truth, there are countless ways to incorporate this tool, and each trader can adapt the model to fit their own strategy.
Always remember to rely on your own analysis and only enter trades when you feel confident in them.
Ceres Trader Simple Trend & Momentum SignalsCeres Trader – Simple Trend & Momentum Signals
Description:
Cut through chart noise with a lightweight, two-factor signal system that combines a classic trend filter (200 EMA) with momentum confirmation (smoothed RSI as a QQE proxy). This indicator plots clean entry arrows—no background shading, no clutter—so you can trade only in the high-probability regime:
Trend Filter: 200-period exponential moving average
Momentum Filter: RSI(14) smoothed over N bars, offset by 50 to create a zero-line
Long Entry: Price above the 200 EMA and the smoothed RSI crosses up through zero → green up-arrow below bar
Short Entry: Price below the 200 EMA and the smoothed RSI crosses down through zero → red down-arrow above bar
Key Features:
Minimalist display: only the 200 EMA and entry arrows
Customizable inputs: EMA length, RSI length, RSI smoothing period
Ultra-low CPU load: suitable for lower timeframes (e.g. 1 min gold futures)
Yellow label text: for optimal visibility on dark or light chart backgrounds
How to Use:
Add the script to your TradingView chart.
Choose your timeframe and adjust inputs as needed.
Take only the long signals when price is above the EMA, and only the short signals when price is below.
Place stops just beyond the EMA; targets can be measured swings or fixed R-multiples.
Notes:
Designed as a regime-based entry filter—no exits or background fills included.
Feel free to combine with your own stop-loss, take-profit, and money-management rules.
Trade smarter, not harder—let the market tell you only when both trend and momentum align.
