ICT Turtle Soup | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new ICT Turtle Soup Indicator! This indicator is built around the ICT "Turtle Soup" model. The strategy has 5 steps for execution which are described in this write-up. For more information about the process, check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new ICT Turtle Soup Indicator :
Implementation of ICT's Turtle Soup Strategy
Adaptive Entry Method
Customizable Execution Settings
Customizable Backtesting Dashboard
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP & SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The ICT Turtle Soup strategy may have different implementations depending on the selected method of the trader. This indicator's implementation is described as :
1. Mark higher timerame liquidity zones.
Liquidity zones are where a lot of market orders sit in the chart. They are usually formed from the long / short position holders' "liquidity" levels. There are various ways to find them, most common one being drawing them on the latest high & low pivot points in the chart, which this indicator does.
2. Mark current timeframe market structure.
The market structure is the current flow of the market. It tells you if the market is trending right now, and the way it's trending towards. It's formed from swing higs, swing lows and support / resistance levels.
3. Wait for market to make a liquidity grab on the higher timeframe liquidity zone.
A liquidity grab is when the marked liquidity zones have a false breakout, which means that it gets broken for a brief amount of time, but then price falls back to it's previous position.
4. Buyside liquidity grabs are "Short" entries and Sellside liquidity grabs are "Long" entries by default.
5. Wait for the market-structure shift in the current timeframe for entry confirmation.
A market-structure shift happens when the current market structure changes, usually when a new swing high / swing low is formed. This indicator uses it as a confirmation for position entry as it gives an insight of the new trend of the market.
6. Place Take-Profit and Stop-Loss levels according to the risk ratio.
This indicator uses "Average True Range" when placing the stop-loss & take-profit levels. Average True Range calculates the average size of a candle and the indicator places the stop-loss level using ATR times the risk setting determined by the user, then places the take-profit level trying to keep a minimum of 1:1 risk-reward ratio.
This indicator follows these steps and inform you step by step by plotting them in your chart.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator is an all-in-one suit for the ICT's Turtle Soup concept. It's capable of plotting the strategy, giving signals, a backtesting dashboard and alerts feature. It's designed for simplyfing a rather complex strategy, helping you to execute it with clean signals. The backtesting dashboard allows you to see how your settings perform in the current ticker. You can also set up alerts to get informed when the strategy is executable for different tickers.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
MSS Swing Length -> The swing length when finding liquidity zones for market structure-shift detection.
Higher Timeframe -> The higher timeframe to look for liquidity grabs. This timeframe setting must be higher than the current chart's timeframe for the indicator to work.
Breakout Method -> If "Wick" is selected, a bar wick will be enough to confirm a market structure-shift. If "Close" is selected, the bar must close above / below the liquidity zone to confirm a market structure-shift.
Entry Method ->
"Classic" : Works as described on the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
"Adaptive" : When "Adaptive" is selected, the entry conditions may chance depending on the current performance of the indicator. It saves the entry conditions and the performance of the past entries, then for the new entries it checks if it predicted the liquidity grabs correctly with the current setup, if so, continues with the same logic. If not, it changes behaviour to reverse the entries from long / short to short / long.
2. TP / SL
TP / SL Method -> If "Fixed" is selected, you can adjust the TP / SL ratios from the settings below. If "Dynamic" is selected, the TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm.
Risk -> The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.

Single Prints - BrightSingle Prints - Bright is a Pine Script indicator designed to identify and visualize significant price levels based on the concept of "single prints." Single prints are price levels where trading activity occurred but with little or no follow-up trading. This indicator plots these levels as lines on the chart, allowing traders to easily identify areas of potential support and resistance.
Features:
Customizable Line Distance: Adjust the distance between single print lines to suit your trading style and time frame.
Maximum Array Size: Set the maximum number of single print lines to be displayed on the chart.
Remove Gaps: Option to remove lines if the price gaps over them.
Multiple Time Frames: Choose to display single prints for daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly sessions.
Color Gradient: Lines are color-coded from red (oldest) to green (newest), providing a visual indication of their relative age.
Thicker, Lime-Colored Lines: Improved visibility with thicker lines and a more lime-like color scheme for easier identification on the chart.
How to Use:
Adding the Indicator:
Open TradingView and navigate to the chart where you want to apply the indicator.
Click on "Indicators" in the top menu.
Select "Pine Editor" and paste the provided Pine Script code into the editor.
Click "Add to Chart" to apply the indicator to your chart.
Configuring the Indicator:
Distance Between Lines (i_line_distance): Set the distance between single print lines. Adjust this value based on the volatility and time frame of the asset you are trading.
Maximum Array Size (i_max_array): Define the maximum number of single print lines to be displayed on the chart. This helps in managing the clutter on the chart.
Remove Gaps (i_remove_gaps): Enable or disable the option to remove lines if the price gaps over them.
Show Daily Single Prints (ShowDailySP): Enable or disable the display of daily single print lines.
Show Daily Extended Single Prints (ShowDailyExtendSP): Enable or disable the display of extended daily single print lines.
Show Weekly Single Prints (ShowWeeklySP): Enable or disable the display of weekly single print lines.
Show Monthly Single Prints (ShowMonthlySP): Enable or disable the display of monthly single print lines.
Show Yearly Single Prints (ShowYearlySP): Enable or disable the display of yearly single print lines.
Interpreting the Lines:
Color Gradient: The lines are color-coded to indicate their relative age. Red lines are the oldest, transitioning through orange and yellow to green, which are the newest. This color gradient helps in identifying how long a particular level has been significant.
Support and Resistance: Use the lines as potential support and resistance levels. Multiple lines close together indicate stronger levels of support or resistance.
Volatility Analysis: The number of lines within a gap can provide insights into market volatility. More lines indicate higher volatility and multiple potential reversal points within that range.
Trading Strategies:
Entry Points: Consider using the single print lines as entry points. For example, if the price approaches a support level with multiple lines, it may be a good buying opportunity.
Stop Loss and Take Profit: Use the single print lines to set stop-loss and take-profit levels. Placing stop-loss orders below multiple support lines can provide additional protection.
Trend Analysis: Analyze the overall trend and momentum in conjunction with the single print lines to make informed trading decisions. If the price is in an uptrend and approaching resistance lines, watch for potential breakouts or reversals.
Smart Money Setup 06 [TradingFinder] Liquidity Sweeps + OB Swing🔵 Introduction
Smart Money, managed by large investors, injects significant capital into financial markets by entering real capital markets.
Capital entering the market by this group of individuals is called smart money. Traders can profit from financial markets by following such individuals.
Therefore, smart money can be considered one of the effective methods for analyzing financial markets.
Sometimes, before a market movement, fluctuation movements that create price movement cause many traders' "Stop Loss" to be triggered. These movements are created in various patterns.
One of these patterns is similar to an "Expanding Triangle", which touches the stop loss of individuals who have placed their stop loss in the cash area in the form of 5 consecutive openings.
To better understand this setup, pay attention to the images below.

🔵 How to Use
After adding the indicator to the chart, wait for trading opportunities to appear. By changing the "Time Frame" and "Pivot Period", you can see different trading positions.
In general, the smaller the "Time Frame" and "Pivot Period", the more likely trading opportunities will appear.
Bullish Setup Details on Chart :
Bearish Setup Details on Chart :
🔵 Settings
You have access to "Pivot Period", "Order Block Refine", and "Refine Mode" through settings.
By changing the "Pivot Period", you can change the range of zigzag that identifies the setup.
Through "Order Block Refine", you can specify whether you want to refine the width of the order blocks or not. It is set to "On" by default.
Through "Refine Mode", you can specify how to improve order blocks.
If you are "risk-averse", you should set it to "Defensive" mode because in this mode, the width of the order blocks decreases, the number of your trades decreases, and the "reward-to-risk ratio "increases.
If you are on the opposite side and are "risk-taker", you can set it to "Aggressive" mode. In this mode, the width of the order blocks increases, and the likelihood of losing positions decreases.

Fetch EngulfingBuysThis script makes use of bullish engulfing candles, trend analysis, and time.
The trend is devided between an up- and downtrend. This is based on a simple cross over strategy, using the 9 and 50 moving averages.
The buys are calculated based on how many times a bullish engulfing candle was displayed on the chart during a downtrend. Bullish engulfing candles in an uptrend will never result in a buy signal.
The sells are simply based on time. This means that the script counts how many days you have been in a trade. The default is 100 candles. You can tweak this in the settings of the indicator.
Finally, this script does not provide you with any stop-losses. I am planning on releasing a v2 once I figured out what a good balance is. Also, you might notice that there are more buys than sells. This is because only the first trade in the series is tracked. V2 could improve on this flaw of the indicator.
Hope you enjoy this first iteration of the indicator.
WTI Crude Oil Lot Size Calculator by AdrianFx94Indicator on Trading Chart: Once you add this script to your trading chart (specifically a WTI Crude Oil chart), it appears as an indicator. This means it runs alongside the price data and other technical analysis tools you might be using.
Input Your Trading Parameters:
Balance (USD): You need to enter your trading account balance in USD. This is the amount of money you have in your account.
Risk Percentage (%): This is where you define the percentage of your account balance that you're willing to risk in a single trade. For example, if your account balance is $5000 and you set the risk percentage to 1%, you're willing to risk $50 on a trade.
Stop Loss Pip Size (Pip): Here, you enter the size of your stop loss in pips. A pip is a small measure of change in a currency pair in the forex market. In the context of WTI Crude Oil trading, it represents a small change in the price.
Automated Lot Size Calculation: Based on the inputs you provide, the script automatically calculates the lot size you should use for your trade. The calculation takes into account the balance you're willing to risk, the percentage of risk, and the stop loss size. This helps in managing risk by suggesting the amount of WTI Crude Oil you should trade (in lots) that aligns with your risk tolerance.
Display Results in a Table: The script generates a table displayed on the top right corner of your chart. This table shows:
Your entered balance (in USD).
The risk percentage you've set.
The calculated lot size, which indicates how many lots of WTI Crude Oil you can trade based on your risk management parameters.
Real-Time Updates: As this script is part of an indicator on your chart, it updates in real time. This means if your account balance changes or if you decide to adjust your risk parameters, you can re-enter these values, and the script will update the lot size accordingly.
This tool is particularly useful for WTI Crude Oil traders who follow strict risk management rules. By automating the calculation of the lot size, it saves time and helps in making informed and disciplined trading decisions.
Dual_MACD_trendingINFO:
This indicator is useful for trending assets, as my preference is for low-frequency trading, thus using BTCUSD on 1D/1W chart
In the current implementation I find two possible use cases for the indicator:
- as a stand-alone indicator on the chart which can also fire alerts that can help to determine if we want to manually enter/exit trades based on the signals from it (1D/1W is good for non-automated trading)
- can be used to connect to the Signal input of the TTS (TempalteTradingStrategy) by jason5480 in order to backtest it, thus effectively turning it into a strategy (instructions below in TTS CONNECTIVITY section)
Trading period can be selected from the indicator itself to limit to more interesting periods.
Arrow indications are drawn on the chart to indicate the trading conditions met in the script - light green for HTF crossover, dark green for LTF crossover and orange for LTF crossunder.
Note that the indicator performs best in trending assets and markets, and it is advisable to use additional indicators to filter the trading conditions when market/asset is expected to move sideways.
DETAILS:
It uses a couple of MACD indicators - one from the current timeframe and one from a higher timeframe, as the crossover/crossunder cases of the MACD line and the signal line indicate the potential entry/exit points.
The strategy has the following flow:
- If the weekly MACD is positive (MACD line is over the signal line) we have a trading window.
- If we have a trading window, we buy when the daily macd line crosses AND closes above the signal line.
- If we are in a position, we await the daily MACD to cross AND close under the signal line, and only then place a stop loss under the wick of that closing candle.
The user can select both the higher (HTF) and lower (LTF) timeframes. Preferably the lower timeframe should be the one that the Chart is on for better visualization.
If one to decide to use the indicator as a strategy, it implements the following buy and sell criterias, which are feed to the TTS, but can be also manually managed via adding alerts from this indicator.
Since usually the LTF is preceeding the crossover compared to the HTF, then my interpretation of the strategy and flow that it follows is allowing two different ways to enter a trade:
- crossover (and bar close) of the macd over the signal line in the HIGH TIMEFRAME (no need to look at the LOWER TIMEFRMAE)
- crossover (and bar close) of the macd over the signal line in the LOW TIMEFRAME, as in this case we need to check also that the macd line is over the signal line for the HIGH TIMEFRAME as well (like a regime filter)
The exit of the trade is based on the lower timeframe MACD only, as we create a stop loss equal to the lower wick of the bar, once the macd line crosses below the signal line on that timeframe
SETTINGS:
All of the indicator's settings are for the vanilla/general case.
User can set all of the MACD parameters for both the higher and lower (current) timeframes, currently left to default of the MACD stand-alone indicator itself.
The start-end date is a time filter that can be extermely usefull when backtesting different time periods.
TTS SETTINGS (NEEDED IF USED TO BACKTEST WITH TTS)
The TempalteTradingStrategy is a strategy script developed in Pine by jason5480, which I recommend for quick turn-around of testing different ideas on a proven and tested framework
I cannot give enough credit to the developer for the efforts put in building of the infrastructure, so I advice everyone that wants to use it first to get familiar with the concept and by checking
by checking jason5480's profile www.tradingview.com
The TTS itself is extremely functional and have a lot of properties, so its functionality is beyond the scope of the current script -
Again, I strongly recommend to be thoroughly epxlored by everyone that plans on using it.
In the nutshell it is a script that can be feed with buy/sell signals from an external indicator script and based on many configuration options it can determine how to execute the trades.
The TTS has many settings that can be applied, so below I will cover only the ones that differ from the default ones, at least according to my testing - do your own research, you may find something even better :)
The current/latest version that I've been using as of writing and testing this script is TTSv48
Settings which differ from the default ones:
- from - False (time filter is from the indicator script itself)
- Deal Conditions Mode - External (take enter/exit conditions from an external script)
- 🔌Signal 🛈➡ - Dual_MACD: 🔌Signal to TTSv48 (this is the output from the indicator script, according to the TTS convention)
- Sat/Sun - true (for crypto, in order to trade 24/7)
- Order Type - STOP (perform stop order)
- Distance Method - HHLL (HigherHighLowerLow - in order to set the SL according to the strategy definition from above)
The next are just personal preferenes, you can feel free to experiment according to your trading style
- Take Profit Targets - 0 (either 100% in or out, no incremental stepping in or out of positions)
- Dist Mul|Len Long/Short- 10 (make sure that we don't close on profitable trades by any reason)
- Quantity Method - EQUITY (personal backtesting preference is to consider each backtest as a separate portfolio, so determine the position size by 100% of the allocated equity size)
- Equity % - 100 (note above)
EXAMPLES:
If used as a stand-alone indicator, the green arrows on the bottom will represent:
- light green - MACD line crossover signal line in the HTF
- darker green - MACD line crossover signal line in the LTF
- orange - MACD line crossunder signal line in the LTF
I recommend enabling the alerts from the script to cover those cases.
If used as an input to the TTS, we'll get more decorations on the chart from the TTS itself.
In the example below we open a trade on the next day of LTF crossover, then a few days later a crossunder in the LTF occurs, so we set a SL at the low of the wick of this day. Few days later the price doesn't recover and hits that SL, so the position is closed.
The Ultimate Buy and Sell IndicatorThis indicator should be used in conjunction with a solid risk management strategy that does not over-leverage positions and uses stop-losses. You can not rely 100% on the signals provided by this indicator (or any other for that matter).
With that said, this indicator can provide some excellent signals.
It has been designed with a large number of customization options intended for advanced traders, but you do not HAVE to be an advanced user to simply use the indicator. I have tried to make it easy to understand, and this section will provide you with a better understanding of how to use it.
NOTE:
While NOT REQUIRED, I would recommend also finding my indicator called, "Ultimate RSI", which is designed to work together with this indicator (visually). They both contain the same settings and allow you to visualize changes made in this indicator that can not be displayed on the main chart.
This indicator creates it's own candles(bars), so you have to go into your main settings and turn off the "body, border and wick" color settings. Using a dark background is also recommended.
How does it work?
The indicator mainly relies on the RSI indicator with Bollinger Bands for signals. (Though not entirely)
First, there are something that I call "Watch Signals", which are various Bollinger Band crossing events. This could be the price crossing Bollinger Bands or the RSI crossing Bollinger Bands.
There are separate watch signals for buys and sells. Buy watch signals are colored orange to match the BUY signal candle color and Fuchsia (kind of a bright purple) to match SELL signal candles.
In order for most buy or sell signals to be created, there must first be a watch signal. There is a lookback period (or length) for watch signals to be used, and after that many candles (bars) have passed, they will be ignored. You can set a length to look back as well as a time to wait before creating any.
What this means is that if there has previously been (for instance) a sell signal. You can tell it to wait 10 bars before creating any buy watch signals. You can then also tell it that it should look back 10 bars from the current one in order to find any buy watch signals. This means that if you had it set up that way 10 to wait and 10 to validate, it would start allowing buy watch signals 11 bars after a sell, and then once you hit 20 bars, it will start leaving a gap (invisible to you) as the 10 bar lookback period starts moving forward with each new bar. This is useful in order to keep signals more spaced apart as some bad signals come quickly after another one.
Example: You may get a sell signal where the Bollinger bands are tight, then the price easily drops down into the lower band creating a buy watch signal, then you get a "fake" or short pump up and it says buy, but then drops dramatically afterwards. The wait period can ensure that the sell stays in effect longer before a buy is considered by blocking any buy watch signals for a period of time.
After you get a watch signal, the system then looks for various other things to happen to create buy or sell signals. This could be the RSI crossing the (slow) RSI Basis line (from its Bollinger bands), it could be the price crossing its basis line, it could be MACD crosses, it could even be RSI crossing certain levels. All of these are options. If you like the MACD strategy and want it to give you buy and sell signals from just MACD crosses, simply select that option for signals.
It is also able to use the first of any of the options that takes place.
I included an option to force alternating buy and sell signals, rather than showing groups of, or subsequent buy, buy, buy signals, for instance.
Moving on....
You can change the moving average that is used to calculate the RSI. The standard moving average for RSI is the RMA (aka SWMA). Changes to this can dramatically change your signals. You also have the option to change the moving average type used in the Bollinger bands calculation. You can change the length of these as well. The same goes for the Bollinger bands over the Price chart. I added an ATR option for the RSI Bollinger bands to play with, as well. You are able to adjust the standard deviation (multiplier) of the bands as well, which will of course affect the signals.
The ways you can play with signals are nearly infinite, so have fun figuring it out.
The indicator allows for moving averages to be shown as well, with a variety of types to choose from. The standard numbers are 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200, with the addition of a custom moving average of your choice. You can also change the color of this one. You can choose to show them all or any of them you want to show, in any combination, although the TYPE of moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, etc.) will apply to all of them.
You may also notice the Bollinger Bands over the Price are colored, and become more or less transparent.
The color is derived from the trend of the RSI or the RSI basis (your choice). It looks back at the value however many bars you want and compares the values and that's how it determines if it is trending up or down. Since RSI is a directional momentum indicator, this can be quite useful. If you see the bands are getting darker, this will explain why.
The indicator has a lookback period for determining the widest the bands (which measure volatility) have been over that period of time. This is the baseline. It then will make the bands disappear (by making them more transparent) if the volatility is low. This indicates that a change in volatility is coming and that price isn't really changing much compared to the past (default 500) bars. If they become bright, this is because price has started trending in a direction and volatility is increasing.
I should also note that the candles are colored based on RSI levels.
If you use the Ultimate Companion indicator, you will be able to see the RSI levels (zones) that the colors are based on. As RSI moves into a new range, the candle color will change.
I have created a yellow zone where the candles turn yellow. This is when RSI is between (default) 45 and 55, indicating there is basically no momentum and price is going sideways. This is a good place to get trapped in bad trades, and there is a Yellow RSI Filter to block signals in this area to keep you from entering bad trades.
Green candles indicate values over 55 (getting brighter as RSI rises) and red candles are RSI values under 45 (getting brighter as RSI values get lower). If you see white, this means RSI is either over 80 or under 20. A sharp reversal is almost always imminent at this stage.
When we talk about Buy and Sell Signals, they draw a green or red triangle and it literally says BUY or SELL. There is an option to color the background for added visibility. These signals do not "repaint", what this means is that they can be late. To account for this, I have included a background color that will flash as a warning that a buy or sell could be imminent, although it may fail to break through and set a buy or sell signal. This is simply an advanced warning. The reason is that sometimes a candle may be very large and you won't be told to buy or sell during the candle until the move is completely over and now you're getting in on the next one. That's not a great feeling, so I made it repaint the background color and not repaint the completed signal. You get the best of both worlds.
This indicator also uses complex logic to handle things.
When there is a buy signal, it enters into a state of having been bought, or a "bought state". The same for sells. If Force alternating signals is off, you could have more than one buy in a bought state, or more than one sell in a sell state. There is an option to color the background green during the full duration of a bought state, or red during the full duration of a sold state.
I have added divergence.
This shows that the lows or highs of RSI and PRICE are different. If RSI is making higher highs but the price is not, then the price is likely to follow this bullish divergence, if the opposite happens, it's bearish. It will draw a line on the chart connecting the highs and lows and call it bearish or bullish. You can adjust this as well.
I have an RSI High/Low filter. If the RSI basis (or average) is very high or low, you can block signal from this area since the price is likely to continue in that direction before actually reversing.
You can change the settings of the MACD if you choose to use it for signals, and if you want to see it, you'll have to run that indicator below the chart and match the settings to see what is going on, just like the RSI.
Going back to Watch Signals. You can also choose to require more than one watch signal if you choose. You can skip watch signals, so it will ignore the first or second one, whatever you want to do. You can color the background to show you where watch signals have been skipped.
Regarding the wait period for creating watch signals after a sell or after a buy, you can also color the background to see where these were blocked by the wait period.
Lastly you can choose which type of watch signals to use, or keep them from being shown on the chart. This allows you to study the history of how the asset you are trading behaves and customize the behavior of signals based on your study of it.
Everything in the settings area has tooltips, which will explain what that thing does to help you along this journey.
I hope this indicator (and perhaps Ultimate RSI alongside this) will help you take your trading to the next level.
50 Point Stop & Take Profit**50 Point Stop & Take Profit**
This custom TradingView indicator is designed for instruments like US30 or any asset following a point system. It assists traders in setting precise stop-loss and take-profit levels based on different risk-reward ratios. It calculates and plots horizontal lines at various price levels above and below your specified entry price, with a 50-point difference between each ratio.
**How It Benefits Your Strategy:**
- Each risk-reward ratio, whether it's 1:1, 2:1, 3:1, and so on, is separated by precisely 50 points. This deliberate spacing is tailored to provide you with clear and consistent reference points for managing trades in instruments using a point-based system.
- The 50-point increments make it easy to adjust your positions, ensuring that your risk and reward levels align with your trading strategy and objectives.
**Usage:**
1. Set your desired entry price using the "Entry Price" input.
2. The indicator is ideally suited for instruments like US30, where each point represents a distinct price movement. It will automatically calculate and plot multiple lines at the following levels, both for Long (L) and Short (S) positions:
- 1:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±50 points)
- 2:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±100 points)
- 3:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±150 points)
- 4:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±200 points)
- 5:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±250 points)
- 6:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±300 points)
- 7:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±350 points)
- 8:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±400 points)
- 9:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±450 points)
- 10:1 Risk-Reward Ratio (±500 points)
**Customization Options:**
- **Alerts:** You can set alerts for each level to receive notifications when the price reaches a specific risk-reward ratio.
- **Color Customization:** Customize the colors of the plotted lines to suit your chart preferences.
- **Toggle Ratios:** Easily toggle on/off different risk-reward ratios to focus on specific levels that align with your trading strategy.
**How to Use:**
- Use the plotted lines as reference points for setting stop-loss and take-profit orders at your preferred risk-reward ratios.
- The blue horizontal line represents your specified entry price.
This indicator simplifies your trading strategy by providing clear visual cues for managing risk and reward levels, with each level thoughtfully spaced 50 points apart to cater to your strategy's precision.
*Note: Always use risk management and proper trade sizing in your trading strategy.*
**Version:** Pine Script version 5
Buy/Sell BoxThis indicator tries to identify the points where the price exceeds or falls below a rectangle based on the opening and closing prices of the previous period, the creation of the boxes occurs when a doji is detected therefore it will calculate the coordinates of the rectangle that will be drawn around it, therefore the indicator offers buy or sell signals based on this logic. Specifically, the buy signal is generated if the closing price is above the top of the rectangle and satisfies some previous price conditions while the sell signal is generated if the closing price is below the bottom of the rectangle and satisfies some conditions of previous prices within a further threshold based on the Ema 150.
Lines are then drawn on the graph to visually display the extreme price levels, which can be useful for any confirmation of buy and sell signals, Stop Loss and Take Profit, Trend Filter (to visually understand if the trend is bullish or bearish)
A potentially effective trading strategy could involve identifying buy and sell signals near the extreme price level lines drawn by the indicator. This approach can be used to try to improve the accuracy of your trading signals and make more informed decisions. For example:
When you receive a buy or sell signal based on the dojis and rectangles generated by the indicator, check whether the price is also near one of the extreme price level lines. If you are receiving a buy signal and notice that the current price is near a low of the lower level line, this may further confirm the buying opportunity, as the price is near a significant resistance level. On the contrary, if the sell signal was close to a maximum price level it could confirm an excellent short entry.
It is also possible to use the boxes as reference points to set the stop loss and take profit levels. If you are entering a buy position, you might consider setting your stop loss just below an upper line of the last box. Additionally, you may want to set your take profit near a higher price level if you are looking to maximize profits. This will help manage risks and protect your capital.
Ruth Buy/Sell Signal for Day Trade and Swing TradeRuth is based on the most known technical indicators and designed for intraday traders. Ruth's aim is to find the best Buy/Sell points and decide to stop loss point with minimum Loss also Ruth tries to find multiple Profit points as TP1/TP2/TP3/TP4/TP5. Ruth was designed based on the heat map colors to be user-friendly and easy to read. While cold color preferred for Short positions, warm colors preferred for Long positions. The most important feature of Ruth is that after the signal is generated, the candles in which the profitable levels are painted one by one with their own special color codes, so that even the most inexperienced users can understand where they should close their positions.
There are two types of signal Ruth can produce for fast trade.
Short Signal: These signals means market tends to be move to down.
Short Stop Loss Point: This is the maximum risk for the position. Shown with single red line inside of the signal.
Short Entry Point: This is the best entry price for short side position. Shown with single baby blue line inside of the signal.
Short Take Profit (TP1): This level represents the profit level the signal is most likely to reach. Shown with single blue line inside of the signal.
Short Take Profit (TP2): This level represents the profit level with a high probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single light purple line inside of the signal.
Short Take Profit (TP3): This level represents the profit level with an intermediate probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single dark purple line inside of the signal.
Short Take Profit (TP4): This level represents the profit level with a low probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single light lilac line inside of the signal.
Short Take Profit (TP5): This level represents the profit level with a tight probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single dark lilac line inside of the signal.
Long Signal: These signals means market tends to be move to up.
Long Stop Loss Point: This is the maximum risk for the position. Shown with single red line inside of the signal.
Long Entry Point: This is the best entry price for short side position. Shown with single baby blue line inside of the signal.
Long Take Profit (TP1): This level represents the profit level the signal is most likely to reach. Shown with single greenish yellow line inside of the signal.
Long Take Profit (TP2): This level represents the profit level with a high probability of the signal occurring. Shown with yellow purple line inside of the signal.
Long Take Profit (TP3): This level represents the profit level with an intermediate probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single dark yellow line inside of the signal.
Long Take Profit (TP4): This level represents the profit level with a low probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single orange line inside of the signal.
Long Take Profit (TP5): This level represents the profit level with a tight probability of the signal occurring. Shown with single dark orange line inside of the signal.
Timeframe: In general best and fastest results occurred in shorter timeframes like 1 min / 5 mins / 15 mins but feel free to try higher timeframes.
Tips & Tricks:
1) Gray line drawn ot the graph represents Dema, we suggests you to go on Short Singals under gray line and go on Long Signals upper gray line.
2) Mostly, Signals easily reach their TP2 / TP3 levels and then generally there is reaction or take profit desire so commodity price turns the opposite direction. If in short time price won't turn to Signal direction close position.
3) Don't forget, every positions has own risks and profits but trade in main trend is crucial.
Strategy - Relative Volume GainersStrategy - Relative Volume Gainers
Overview:
This trading strategy, called "Relative Volume Gainers," is designed for Long Entry opportunities in the stock market. The strategy aims to identify potential trading candidates based on specific technical conditions, including volume, price movements, and indicator alignments.
Strategy Rules:
The strategy is focused solely on Long Entry positions.
The volume for the current trading day must be greater than or equal to the volume of the previous day.
The percentage change in price must be greater than or equal to 2.5%.
The Last Traded Price (LTP) must be greater than or equal to the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) 200.
The Relative Volume for the current trading day (calculated over the last 30 days) must be greater than or equal to the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of Relative Volume over the same 30 days.
The current candle on the chart should be Green or Bullish, indicating positive price movement.
The price difference between bid and ask prices should be kept to a minimum.
It's recommended to also analyze market depth for better insights.
Strategy Requirements:
Add the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) 200 to your trading chart.
This strategy can be applied on charts of any timeframe.
For intraday trading, particularly for early entry, consider using a 1-minute timeframe.
It is advisable to create a screener to identify potential trades in real-time market conditions.
Risk Warning:
Stocks that meet the strategy criteria might exhibit high volatility and a high beta, making them inherently risky to trade. Exercise caution and adhere to predetermined risk management strategies.
Determine your trading quantity based on your entry price and stop loss in order to manage risk effectively.
Quantity Calculation Formula:
Quantity calculation is crucial to manage risk and position sizing. The following formulas can be used based on your trading scenario:
Quantity with Leverage:
Quantity = (((Using Capital / 100) * Risk Percent) / (Entry Price - Stop Loss)) * Leverage
Eg: Quantity = (((10000 / 100) * 0.2) / (405.5 - 398.5)) * 5
Quantity = 14
Risk = Rs.100 (Rs.100 is 1% of Rs.10000. So the risk is 1%, means we lose only Rs.100 when the SL is hit. If SL is increased the Quantity will get reduced to maintain a fixed risk of Rs.100)
Quantity without Leverage:
Quantity = (((Using Capital / 100) * Risk Percent) / (Entry Price - Stop Loss))
Note:
Always stay informed about market conditions and be prepared for potential rapid price movements when trading stocks that meet the strategy criteria. Strictly adhere to your predefined risk management strategy to safeguard your capital.

Donchian Volatility Indicator - Adaptive Channel WidthThis indicator is designed to help traders assess and analyze market volatility. By calculating the width of the Donchian channels, it provides valuable insights into the range of price movements over a specified period. This indicator helps traders identify periods of high and low volatility, enabling them to make more informed trading decisions.
The indicator is based on the concept of Donchian channels, which consist of the highest high and lowest low over a specified lookback period. The channel width is calculated as the difference between the upper and lower channels. A wider channel indicates higher volatility, suggesting potentially larger price movements and increased trading opportunities. On the other hand, a narrower channel suggests lower volatility, indicating a relatively calmer market environment with potentially fewer trading opportunities.
The adaptive aspect of the indicator refers to its ability to adjust the width of the channels dynamically based on market conditions. The indicator calculates the width of the channels using the Average True Range (ATR) indicator, which measures the average range of price movements over a specified period. By multiplying the ATR value with the user-defined ATR multiplier, the indicator adapts the width of the channels to reflect the current level of volatility. During periods of higher volatility, the channels expand to accommodate larger price movements, providing a broader range for assessing volatility. Conversely, during periods of lower volatility, the channels contract, reflecting the narrower price ranges and signaling a decrease in volatility. This adaptive nature allows traders to have a flexible and responsive measure of volatility, ensuring that the indicator reflects the current market conditions accurately.
To provide further insights, the indicator includes a signal line. The signal line is derived from the channel width and is calculated as a simple moving average over a specified signal period. This signal line acts as a reference level, allowing traders to compare the current channel width with the average width over a given time frame. By assessing whether the current channel width is above or below the signal line, traders can gain additional context on the volatility level in the market.
The colors used in the Donchian Volatility Indicator - Adaptive Channel Width play a vital role in visualizing the volatility levels:
-- Lime Color : When the channel width is above the signal line, it is colored lime. This color signifies that volatility has entered the market, indicating potentially higher price movements and increased trading opportunities. Traders can pay closer attention to the lime-colored channel width as it may suggest favorable conditions for trend-following or breakout trading strategies.
-- Fuchsia Color : When the channel width is below the signal line, it is colored fuchsia. This color represents relatively low volatility, suggesting a calmer market environment with potentially fewer trading opportunities. Traders may consider adjusting their strategies during periods of low volatility, such as employing range-bound or mean-reversion strategies.
-- Aqua Color : The signal line is represented by the aqua color. This color allows traders to easily identify the signal line amidst the channel width. The aqua color provides a visual reference for the average channel width and helps traders assess whether the current width is above or below this average.
The Donchian Volatility Indicator - Adaptive Channel Width has several practical applications for traders:
-- Volatility Assessment : Traders can use this indicator to assess the level of volatility in the market. By observing the width of the Donchian channels and comparing it to the signal line, they can determine whether the current volatility is relatively high or low. This information helps traders set appropriate expectations and adjust their trading strategies accordingly.
-- Breakout Trading : Wide channel widths may indicate an increased likelihood of price breakouts. Traders can use the Donchian Volatility Indicator - Adaptive Channel Width to identify potential breakout opportunities. When the channel width exceeds the signal line, it suggests a higher probability of significant price movements, potentially signaling a breakout. Traders may consider entering trades in the direction of the breakout.
-- Risk Management : The indicator can assist in setting appropriate stop-loss levels based on the current volatility. During periods of high volatility (lime-colored channel width), wider stop-loss orders may be warranted to account for larger price swings. Conversely, during periods of low volatility (fuchsia-colored channel width), narrower stop-loss orders may be appropriate to limit risk in a more range-bound market.
While the Donchian Volatility Indicator - Adaptive Channel Width is a valuable tool, it is important to consider its limitations:
-- Lagging Indicator : The indicator relies on historical price data, making it a lagging indicator. It provides insights based on past price movements and may not capture sudden changes or shifts in volatility. Traders should be aware that the indicator may not generate real-time signals and should be used in conjunction with other indicators and analysis tools.
-- False Signals : Like any technical indicator, the Donchian Volatility Indicator - Adaptive Channel Width is not immune to generating false signals. Traders should exercise caution and use additional analysis to confirm the signals generated by the indicator. Considering the broader market context and employing risk management techniques can help mitigate the impact of false signals.
-- Market Conditions : Market conditions can vary, and volatility levels can differ across different assets and timeframes. Traders should adapt their strategies and consider other market factors when interpreting the signals provided by the indicator. It is crucial to avoid relying solely on the indicator and to incorporate a comprehensive analysis of the market environment.
In conclusion, this indicator is a powerful tool for assessing market volatility. By examining the width of the Donchian channels and comparing it to the signal line, traders can gain insights into the level of volatility and adjust their trading strategies accordingly. The color-coded representation of the channel width and signal line allows for easy visualization and interpretation of the volatility dynamics. Traders should utilize this indicator as part of a broader trading approach, incorporating other technical analysis tools and considering market conditions for a comprehensive assessment of market volatility.
Buyside & Sellside Liquidity [LuxAlgo]The Buyside & Sellside Liquidity indicator aims to detect & highlight the first and arguably most important concept within the ICT trading methodology, Liquidity levels.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Liquidity Levels
Detection Length: Lookback period
Margin: Sets margin/sensitivity for a liquidity level detection
🔹 Liquidity Zones
Buyside Liquidity Zones: Enables display of the buyside liquidity zones.
Margin: Sets margin/sensitivity for the liquidity zone boundaries.
Color: Color option for buyside liquidity levels & zones.
Sellside Liquidity Zones: Enables display of the sellside liquidity zones.
Margin: Sets margin/sensitivity for the liquidity zone boundaries.
Color: Color option for sellside liquidity levels & zones.
🔹 Liquidity Voids
Liquidity Voids: Enables display of both bullish and bearish liquidity voids.
Label: Enables display of a label indicating liquidity voids.
🔹 Display Options
Mode: Controls the lookback length of detection and visualization, where Present assumes last 500 bars and Historical assumes all data available to the user
# Visible Levels: Controls the amount of the liquidity levels/zones to be visualized.
🔶 USAGE
Definitions of Liquidity refer to the availability of orders at specific price levels in the market, allowing transactions to occur smoothly.
In the context of Inner Circle Trader's teachings, liquidity mainly relates to stop losses or pending orders and liquidity level/pool, highlighting a concentration of buy or sell orders at specific price levels. Smart money traders, such as banks and other large institutions, often target these liquidity levels/pools to accumulate or distribute their positions.
There are two types of liquidity; Buyside liquidity and Sellside liquidity .
Buyside liquidity represents a level on the chart where short sellers will have their stops positioned, and Sellside liquidity represents a level on the chart where long-biased traders will place their stops.
These areas often act as support or resistance levels and can provide trading opportunities.
When the liquidity levels are breached at which many stop/limit orders are placed have been traded through, the script will create a zone aiming to provide additional insight to figure out the odds of the next price action.
Reversal: It’s common that the price may reverse course and head in the opposite direction, seeking liquidity at the opposite extreme.
Continuation: When the zone is also broken it is a sign for continuation price action.
It's worth noting that ICT concepts are specific to the methodology developed by Michael J. Huddleston and may not align with other trading approaches or strategies.
🔶 DETAILS
Liquidity voids are sudden changes in price when the price jumps from one level to another. Liquidity voids will appear as a single or a group of candles that are all positioned in the same direction. These candles typically have large real bodies and very short wicks, suggesting very little disagreement between buyers and sellers. The peculiar thing about liquidity voids is that they almost always fill up.
🔶 ALERTS
When an alert is configured, the user will have the ability to be notified in case;
Liquidity level is detected/updated.
Liquidity level is breached.

Support & Resistance ZonesTitle: A Comprehensive Guide to the Support & Resistance Zones Indicator
Introduction
In the world of technical analysis, the Support & Resistance Zones indicator plays a crucial role in identifying potential trading opportunities. These zones are essential for traders looking to capitalize on bounces or break and retests. In this article, we will delve into the specifics of the Support & Resistance Zones indicator, outlining how it works, how it finds and marks zones, and the various options available for traders.
What the indicator is about
The Support & Resistance Zones indicator, developed by @HarryCTC, is a powerful tool for detecting areas of potential price reversal or consolidation in a financial market. These zones are significant as they can act as a guide for traders to make informed decisions on entering or exiting positions. Specifically, the indicator helps identify:
1. Support Zones: Areas where the price has a tendency to bounce back up after falling, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
2. Resistance Zones: Areas where the price has a tendency to reverse after rising, indicating a potential selling opportunity.
How the indicator finds its zones
The Support & Resistance Zones indicator utilizes pivot points to identify potential support and resistance levels. By analyzing the fractal structure of the price chart, the indicator identifies key turning points, known as bull and bear fractals. The bull fractal is a high pivot point, while the bear fractal is a low pivot point.
The fractal structure is determined by the 'Switch Zone Period' input, which can be adjusted to suit the trader's preferences. A higher value will result in fewer zones being identified, while a lower value will result in more zones.
How it marks zones and why it marks zones
The indicator marks the support and resistance zones by creating rectangular boxes around the identified fractal points. The zones are extended horizontally from the fractal point, allowing traders to visualize the potential areas of price reversal.
The zones are marked for the following reasons:
1. To provide a clear visual representation of potential support and resistance levels.
2. To help traders identify potential entry and exit points based on the price's reaction to these zones.
3. To serve as a reference for stop-loss and take-profit levels when planning trades.
The indicator's for traders trading bounces or break and retests
Traders who focus on trading bounces or break and retests can benefit immensely from the Support & Resistance Zones indicator. By providing a visual representation of key support and resistance levels, the indicator enables traders to:
1. Identify potential buying opportunities at support zones where the price is likely to bounce back up.
2. Identify potential selling opportunities at resistance zones where the price is likely to reverse after rising.
3. Make informed decisions on stop-loss and take-profit levels based on the price's proximity to support and resistance zones.
4. Monitor the market for potential breakouts or breakdowns when the price breaches these zones.
Indicator options
The Support & Resistance Zones indicator offers several customizable options to suit the trader's preferences. These options include:
1. Switch Zone Period: Adjusts the number of periods used to calculate the fractal structure, influencing the number of identified zones.
2. No. of Displayed Zones: Determines the maximum number of zones displayed on the chart, ranging from 1 to 8.
3. Zone Extension: Adjusts the horizontal extension of the support and resistance zones.
4. Resistance Zone Color: Customizes the color of the resistance zone boxes.
5. Support Zone Color: Customizes the color of the support zone boxes.
6. Zone Border Color: Customizes the color of the zone box borders.
Conclusion
The Support & Resistance Zones indicator is a valuable tool for traders looking to identify potential trading opportunities based on the price's interaction with support and resistance levels. By providing a clear visual representation of these zones, the
indicator allows traders to make informed decisions on entry and exit points, stop-loss, and take-profit levels. With customizable options, the indicator can be tailored to suit individual trading preferences and strategies.
Stophunt WickAcknowledgement
This indicator is dedicated to my friend Alexandru who saved me from one of these liquidation raids which almost liquidated me.
Alexandru is one of the best scalpers out there and he always nails his entries at the tip of these wicks.
This inspired me to create this indicator.
What's a Liquidation Wick?
It's that fast stop-hunting wick that stophunts everyone by triggering their stop-loss and liquidation.
Liquidity is the lifeblood of stock market and liquidation is the process that moves price.
This indicator will identify when a liquidity pool is getting raided to trigger buy or sell stops, they are also know as stop-hunts.
How does it work?
When market consolidates in one direction, it builds up liquidity zones.
Market maker will break out of these consolidation phases by having dramatic price action to either pump or dump to raid these liquidity zones.
This is also called stop-hunts or liquidity raids. After that it will start reversing back to the opposite direction.
This is most noticeable by the length of the wick of a given candle in a very short amount of time and the total size of the candle.
This indicator highlights them accordingly.
Settings
Wick and Candle ratio works with default values but finetune will enhance user experience and usability.
Wick Ratio: Size of the wick compared to body of a candle.
Adjust this to higher ratio on smaller timeframe or smaller ratio on bigger timeframe to your trading style to spot a trend reversal.
Candle Ratio: The size of the candle, by default it is 0.75% of the current price.
For example, if BTC is at 20,000 then the size of the candle has to be minimum 150.
This can be fine tuned to bigger candle size on higher time frames or smaller for shorter timeframe depending on the trade type.
How to use it?
This indicator will identify when a liquidity pool is getting raided to trigger buy or sell stops, they are also know as stop-hunts. It can be used of its own for scalping but there are also a good few indicators which would most definitely help to confluence bigger timeframe trades.
Scalp
This indicator shows the most chaotic moments in price action; therefore it works best on smaller timeframes, ideally 3 or 5 minute candle.
- Wait for the market to start pumping or dumping.
- Current candle will change colour (Bullish/Bearish).
- Enter trade as soon as price starts to reverse back.
- Place the stop-loss outside of the current candle.
- Wait for the Liquidation Wick to appear as confirmation.
Price is very chaotic during a liquidity stop-hunt raid but there is a saying:
"In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity" - Sun-Tzu
Since this is a very high risk, high reward strategy; it is advised to practice on paper trade first.
Practice until perfection and this indicator would be the perfect bread and butter scalp confirmation.
Fair Value Gap
FVG strategy is the most accurate in conjunction with this indicator.
Normally price would reverse after consuming fair value gaps but often it's difficult to know when and where.
This indicator would identify those crucial entry points for reverse course direction of the price action.
Support and Resistance
This indicator can also be used in conjunction with support and resistance lines.
Generally the stophunt will go deep below the support or spike much further up the resistance lines to liquidate positions.
Bollinger Bands
Bolling Bands strategy would be to wait until the price breaks out of the band.
Once the wick is formed, it would be an ideal entry point.

Pip CrosshairsThis is a simple tool designed to help you visualize your stop loss and take profit levels before entering a trade. The tool plots two lines on the chart - a green dotted line for take profit and a red dotted line for stop loss (similar to the price line) - with a simulated default spread of one pip factored in. The indicator has the option to toggle between long and short positions.
Please note that the spread used in the tool is not based on your actual spread and should be adjusted accordingly. As, to the best of my knowledge Pine Script does not have the ability to automatically include spread in an indicator, so you will need to input your spread manually. (if you can please let me know cause that would be a game changer).
Overall, should help save you a bit of time by not having to manually measure stop loss and take profit levels for each trade.
Happy hunting :)
Custom Weighted Moving Average with SMA, EMA, and VWAPThe Custom Weighted Moving Average with SMA, EMA, and VWAP (CWMA-SMA-EMA-VWAP) is a versatile and comprehensive trading indicator that combines the strength of Simple Moving Averages (SMAs), Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), and the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) to create a custom weighted moving average. This indicator is designed to provide a more holistic view of the market and enhance trading decisions by considering multiple moving average types and their respective timeframes. The indicator also highlights intersections between the custom weighted moving average and the individual SMA, EMA, and VWAP lines by changing their color to yellow, which can be used as potential entry or exit signals.
How to Use:
The CWMA-SMA-EMA-VWAP indicator can be used in various ways to make informed trading decisions. Here are some possible strategies:
Trend Identification: The custom weighted moving average (CWMA) can act as a dynamic support and resistance level, smoothing out the price movements and revealing the underlying trend. When the price is above the CWMA, it may indicate an uptrend, and when it's below, a downtrend. Traders can use this information to align their trades with the prevailing market trend.
Crossovers: The intersections between the CWMA and individual SMA, EMA, and VWAP lines are highlighted in yellow, which can serve as potential entry or exit signals. For instance, when the price or one of the moving averages crosses above the CWMA, it may signal a bullish trend, and traders could consider entering a long position. Conversely, when the price or one of the moving averages crosses below the CWMA, it may signal a bearish trend, and traders could consider entering a short position.
Confirmation of Signals: The CWMA-SMA-EMA-VWAP indicator can be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to confirm or strengthen trading signals. For example, traders may use oscillators like the RSI or MACD to confirm overbought or oversold conditions and identify potential reversals in tandem with the CWMA-SMA-EMA-VWAP crossovers.
Stop Loss and Take Profit Levels: The CWMA, SMAs, EMAs, and VWAP lines can serve as dynamic support and resistance levels, helping traders set stop loss and take profit targets. For example, a trader might set a stop loss below the CWMA during an uptrend or above the CWMA during a downtrend. Similarly, they might set take profit targets near significant SMA or EMA levels, anticipating that the price may reverse or consolidate at these points.
It's important to note that the CWMA-SMA-EMA-VWAP indicator, like any other technical analysis tool, should not be used in isolation. Combining it with other technical analysis methods, proper risk management, and a well-defined trading plan will increase the chances of success in the market. Additionally, traders should backtest and validate any strategy using historical data before applying it to real-world trading.

Sniper EntryThis source code is an implementation of a TradingView indicator called "Sniper Entry". The purpose of this indicator is to identify potential entry points for trades based on certain candlestick patterns and the Stochastic oscillator.
The indicator calculates the Stochastic oscillator based on the close, high, and low prices of the asset over a period of 14 bars. It then uses this oscillator to generate buy and sell signals.
For a buy signal to be generated, the Stochastic oscillator must cross above the oversold level of 20, and the current candle must either be a bullish pin bar or a bullish engulfing pattern. For a sell signal to be generated, the Stochastic oscillator must cross below the overbought level of 80, and the current candle must either be a bearish pin bar or a bearish engulfing pattern.
The indicator also calculates the stop loss and target levels for both buy and sell trades. The stop loss is calculated based on the low or high of the candle that generated the signal, depending on whether it's a buy or sell signal. The target is calculated based on the risk/reward ratio, which is set to 3 in this implementation. The lot size is also set to 0.01, and the starting capital is set to 100.
The indicator then plots the buy and sell signals, the stop loss and target levels, and the Stochastic oscillator on the chart.
It's important to note that this is just one example of a trading indicator, and its effectiveness may vary depending on market conditions and the asset being traded. It's also important to perform your own analysis and use proper risk management techniques when making trades based on any indicator or strategy.
ATR+This is an indicator which uses the ATR (average true range) to calculate take profit levels, stop loss levels, and position sizing.
It acts an ATR indicator, based on concepts found in the No Nonsense Forex (NNFX) trading system.
ATR works by looking at the past N periods (14 by default) to see on average, how many pips or dollars an asset has moved. It is widely used by itself or as part of another indicator.
This script also implements money/risk management to determine:

[-_-] Volatility Calibrated ATRDescription:
An indicator based on ATR adjusted for volatility of the market. It uses Heikin Ashi data to find short and long opportunities and displays a dynamic stop loss level. Additionally, it has alerts for when the trend changes (which is an entry signal).
How it works:
It works by dynamically calculating the Period for ATR which depends on current volatility level that is calculated by a function that uses Standard Deviation of price. ATR is then smoothed by Weighted Moving Average and multiplied by ATR Factor, resulting in a plot that changes its colour to red when we're in a downtrend and green when in an uptrend. This plot should be used as a dynamic Stop Loss level. Trend change is determined by price crossing the dynamic Stop Loss level. The squared red and green labels appear when the trend changes, and should be used as Entry signals.
Parameters:
- Source -> data used for calculations
- ATR Factor -> higher values produce less noise and longer trends, lower values give more signals
