EBP Candle Marker### **EBP Candle Marker – TradingView Indicator**
The **EBP Candle Marker** is a specialized TradingView indicator designed to identify and highlight potential liquidity sweep candles. This indicator visually emphasizes key price action patterns where the market sweeps previous highs or lows and closes in the opposite direction, often signaling potential reversals or liquidity grabs.
---
### 📊 **Indicator Logic:**
1. **Bullish Sweep:**
- The current candle’s **low** is lower than the previous candle’s **low** (indicating a liquidity sweep).
- The **close** is above both the **open** and **close** of the previous candle.
2. **Bearish Sweep:**
- The current candle’s **high** is higher than the previous candle’s **high** (indicating a liquidity sweep).
- The **close** is below both the **open** and **close** of the previous candle.
---
### 🎨 **Visual Representation:**
- **Yellow Candle Body:** Highlights any candle meeting the bullish or bearish sweep conditions.
---
### 🔔 **Alert Functionality:**
The indicator supports setting custom alerts in TradingView for:
- **Bullish Sweep Detected** – Notifies when a bullish sweep occurs.
- **Bearish Sweep Detected** – Notifies when a bearish sweep occurs.
These alerts are compatible across any timeframe, providing flexibility to monitor key market conditions.
---
### 📈 **Use Cases:**
- **Liquidity Sweep Detection:** Identify areas where the market may be triggering stop-loss orders or liquidity hunts.
- **Reversal Confirmation:** Enhance trade confirmation by identifying potential reversal zones.
- **Scalping & Swing Trading:** Suitable for both short-term and long-term trading strategies across multiple timeframes.

Pipnotic Supply and DemandDescription
The Pipnotic Supply and Demand Indicator was originally developed in 2011 for another trading platform and is currently being rewritten for TradingView due to user demand. It is a powerful tool designed for traders who utilize supply and demand concepts in technical analysis. This script automatically detects and highlights key supply and demand zones (as well as buy and sell zones) on the chart, enabling traders to identify potential reversal points, trend continuations, and price imbalances. We will continue to actively develop this indicator for existing and this new version for TradingView.
How It Works
The indicator follows a structured methodology to analyse price action and identify high-probability supply and demand zones:
Zone Identification:
Detects accumulation and distribution phases using volatility and range conditions.
Identifies zones where price imbalances occur, signalling potential trading opportunities.
Expansion and Confirmation:
Assesses whether the price expands away from a zone significantly enough to validate it as a supply or demand zone.
Uses a risk-to-reward ratio to ensure zones meet predefined trading criteria, adjustable via the configuration.
Visualization and Management:
Plots supply (bearish) and demand (bullish) zones directly on the chart.
Labels the percentage of expansion from the zone, giving traders insights into the strength of the imbalance.
Updates zones dynamically, marking tested and consumed levels and preventing outdated information from cluttering the chart.
Key Features & Inputs
Customizable Zone Display: Traders can adjust the maximum number of supply and demand zones shown on the chart.
Dynamic Volatility Sampling: Uses the ATR (Average True Range) to adapt to changing market conditions.
Flexible Risk Management: Allows traders to define a minimum zone size and a risk-to-reward ratio for filtering zones.
Enhanced Visualization:
Adjustable colours for bullish and bearish zones.
Configurable border width for zone clarity.
Optional display of consumed zones to avoid redundant signals, but to also identify price sensitive zones on the flip side of the book when zones are consumed.
Swing Significance Detection: Enables boxing of significant price swings to refine the accuracy of identified zones.
Benefits of Using the Pipnotic Supply and Demand Indicator
Automates Supply and Demand Analysis: Eliminates the need for manual zone drawing, saving time and reducing subjectivity.
Enhances Trade Decision-Making: By providing precise entry and exit points based on supply and demand principles, traders can optimize their strategies.
Adapts to Market Conditions: The indicator dynamically adjusts to price movements, ensuring relevant zones are displayed.
Works Across All Timeframes: Suitable for scalping, swing trading, and long-term investing.
Compatible with Multiple Trading Strategies: Can be used alongside trend-following, breakout, and reversal strategies for improved trade confirmation.
MTF Fractals [RunRox]🔽 MTF Fractals is a powerful indicator designed to visualize fractals from multiple timeframes directly on your chart, highlight liquidity sweeps at these fractal levels, and provide several additional features we’ll cover in detail below.
We created this indicator because we couldn’t find a suitable tool that met our specific needs on TradingView. Therefore, we decided to develop a valuable indicator for the entire TradingView community, combining simplicity and versatility.
⁉️ WHAT IS A FRACTALS?
In trading, a fractal is a technical analysis pattern composed of five consecutive candles, typically highlighting local market turning points. Specifically, a fractal high is formed when a candle’s high is higher than the highs of the two candles on either side, whereas a fractal low occurs when a candle’s low is lower than the lows of the two adjacent candles on both sides.
Traders use fractals as reference points for identifying significant support and resistance levels, potential reversal areas, and liquidity zones within price action analysis. Below is a screenshot illustrating clearly formed fractals on the chart.
📙 FRACTAL FORMATION
Here’s how fractals form depending on your chosen setting (3, 5, 7, or 9):
▶️ 3-bar fractal – forms when the central candle is higher (for highs) or lower (for lows) than one candle on each side.
▶️ 5-bar fractal – forms when the central candle is higher or lower than two candles on both sides.
▶️ 7-bar fractal – forms when the central candle is higher or lower compared to the three candles on each side.
▶️ 9-bar fractal – forms similarly but requires four candles on each side, making the fractal significantly more reliable and robust.
A higher number of bars ensures stronger fractal levels, highlighting more significant potential reversal points on the chart.
Now that we’ve covered the theory behind fractal formation, let’s explore the indicator’s functionality in more detail.
Below, I’ll explain each feature clearly and illustrate how you can effectively utilize this indicator in your trading.
🕐 MULTI-TIMEFRAME FRACTALS
We realized that displaying fractals only from the current timeframe isn’t always convenient, so we’ve introduced Multi-Timeframe Fractals into this indicator.
Now you can easily display fractals from higher timeframes directly on your current chart, providing you with broader market context and clearer trading signals.
Fractals from Current Timeframe – Fractals identified directly on the chart’s current timeframe.
Fractals from Higher Timeframes – Fractals sourced from higher timeframes and displayed clearly on your current chart for enhanced market perspective.
📈 FRACTAL LINES
Since fractals represent areas of high liquidity, we’ve added an option to extend fractal levels horizontally as Fractal Lines across your chart.
This feature allows you to clearly visualize critical liquidity areas from higher timeframes, directly on your current timeframe chart, as demonstrated in the screenshot below.
With this approach, you can clearly visualize significant fractal levels from higher timeframes directly on your current chart - for example, projecting fractals from the 1-hour (1H) timeframe onto a 3-minute (3m) chart. ✅ This helps you easily identify critical liquidity areas and potential reversal zones without the need to switch between multiple timeframes.
💰 LIQUDITY SWEEP (LIQUDITY GRAB)
To enhance your trading experience, we’ve introduced a feature that clearly identifies liquidity sweeps of fractal levels.
A Liquidity Sweep occurs when a candle closes beyond a fractal line, leaving a wick that pierces through it, signaling that liquidity has been collected at this level.
Below, you’ll find two examples illustrating this functionality:
▶️ Fractal lines from the current timeframe
▶️ Fractal lines projected from higher timeframes
The first example illustrates liquidity being swept from fractals on the current timeframe .
Here, the candle clearly closes beyond the fractal line, leaving a wick through it. This indicates a liquidity sweep at the fractal level, visually highlighting a potential reversal or continuation opportunity directly on your chart.
In the second example, fractals from the higher timeframe are projected onto your current chart.
When a candle on your current timeframe closes beyond an HTF fractal line - leaving a wick through this level - the indicator highlights it clearly. This signals to traders a potential reversal zone, indicating that liquidity has been swept, and price may reverse or significantly react from this area.
You can also enable the display of additional labels on the chart. These labels clearly mark liquidity sweeps at fractal levels, making it easier to visually identify potential reversal points directly on your chart.
⚙️ SETTINGS
Below are the indicator settings with detailed explanations for each parameter.
🔷 Bars in Fractal – Number of candles to the right and left required to form a fractal.
🔷 Fractal Timeframe – Select the timeframe from which you want to display fractals on the current chart.

High Timeframe POCIntroducing the High Timeframe POC (HTF POC) Indicator
What It Does
The HTF POC Indicator is a powerful tool that helps traders identify key price levels on your chart based on the Point of Control (POC)—the price level where the most trading activity (volume or time) occurred over a specific timeframe. Think of it as a "magnet" where price tends to return or bounce off. This indicator works across multiple timeframes (1-hour, 4-hour, 6-hour, weekly, monthly, and custom periods like 3M or 6M), giving you a clear view of significant support and resistance levels from both short-term and long-term perspectives.
Key Features:
Displays POC lines for different timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, 6H) as horizontal lines on your chart.
Limits the number of lines per timeframe (default 5, adjustable) to avoid clutter.
Allows customizable line lengths (e.g., 1 day for 1H, 7 days for 6H) and label positioning to keep your chart clean.
Highlights developing POCs (current price action) and optional Value Area (VA) levels for added context.
Removes crossed POC lines automatically to focus on relevant levels.
Why It Matters
Traders use POCs because they act as support (price floor) or resistance (price ceiling) zones. By seeing POCs from multiple timeframes, you can:
Spot where price is likely to reverse or consolidate.
Align your trades with both short-term (1H, 4H) and longer-term (6H, monthly) trends.
Avoid overcomplicating your chart with too many lines, thanks to customizable settings.
How to Use It
Here are practical ways to leverage the HTF POC Indicator in your trading:
Identify Entry and Exit Points:
Look for price approaching a POC line (e.g., a 4H POC in green). If price bounces off this level, it’s a potential buy (support) or sell (resistance) signal.
Example: If the 1H POC is near current price and price respects it, enter a trade in the direction of the bounce.
Combine Timeframes for Confirmation:
Use shorter timeframes (1H, 4H) for precise entries and longer timeframes (6H, monthly) for trend direction.
Example: If a 6H POC aligns with a monthly POC and price holds, it’s a stronger signal to trade in that direction.
Set Stop Losses and Targets:
Place your stop loss just beyond the POC level (e.g., 1-2% below a support POC).
Set your profit target at the next POC level (e.g., the next 4H POC above your entry).
Spot Reversal Zones:
Watch for price stalling or reversing at multiple POC alignments (e.g., 1H and 6H POCs stacking). This is a high-probability reversal zone.
Example: If price drops to a 1H POC and a 4H POC at the same level, consider it a key area to watch.
Adjust for Clarity:
Tweak the “Max lines to display” (e.g., set 1H to 3 lines) and “Line length” (e.g., 1 day for 1H) in the settings to focus on the most recent and relevant levels.
Move labels (left for 1H, right for 6H) to avoid overlap and keep your chart readable.
Quick Tips
Enable Timeframes: Turn on 1H, 4H, or 6H based on your trading style (short-term or swing).
Color Coding: Red for 1H, Green for 4H, Blue for 6H—easy to distinguish on the chart.
Test It: Apply it on a daily chart and adjust settings to see how POCs align with past price action.
Get Started
Add the HTF POC Indicator to your TradingView chart, customize the settings to match your strategy, and watch how POC levels guide your trades. Whether you’re scalping or swing trading, this tool helps you stay ahead by highlighting where the market “remembers” its past!

Advanced Support and Resistance Levels[MAP]Advanced Support and Resistance Levels Indicator
Author
Developed by:
Overview
The "Advanced Support and Resistance Levels" indicator, created, is a sophisticated tool designed for TradingView's Pine Script v6 platform. It identifies and plots key support and resistance levels on a price chart, enhancing technical analysis by incorporating pivot strength, volume weighting, and level decay. The indicator overlays lines, zones, and labels on the chart, providing a visual representation of significant price levels where the market has historically reversed or consolidated.
Purpose
This indicator, authored by , aims to:
Detect significant pivot points (highs and lows) with customizable strength requirements.
Track and rank support/resistance levels based on their recency, volume, and number of touches.
Display these levels as lines and optional zones, with strength-based visual cues (e.g., line thickness and opacity).
Offer flexibility through user-configurable settings to adapt to different trading styles and market conditions.
Features
Pivot Detection:
Identifies high and low pivots using a strength parameter, requiring a specified number of bars on either side where no higher highs or lower lows occur.
Incorporates closing price checks and SMA-based trend confirmation to filter out noise and ensure pivots align with the broader market direction.
Level Management:
Maintains a dynamic array of levels with attributes: price, type (support/resistance), bars since last touch, strength, and volume.
Merges nearby levels within a tolerance percentage, updating prices with a strength-weighted average.
Prunes weaker or older levels when exceeding the maximum allowed, prioritizing those with higher calculated strength.
Strength Calculation:
Combines the number of touches (strength), volume (if enabled), and age decay (if enabled) into a single metric.
Volume weighting uses a logarithmic scale to emphasize high-volume pivots without over-amplifying extreme values.
Age decay reduces the importance of older levels over time, ensuring relevance to current price action.
Visualization:
Draws horizontal lines at each level, with thickness reflecting the number of touches (up to a user-defined maximum).
Optional price zones around levels, sized as a percentage of the price, to indicate areas of influence.
Labels display the level type (S for support, R for resistance), price, and strength score, with position (left or right) customizable.
Line opacity varies with strength, providing a visual hierarchy of level significance.
Plots small triangles at detected pivot points for reference.
Inputs
Lookback Period (lookback, default: 20): Number of bars to consider for trend confirmation via SMA. Range: 5–100.
Pivot Strength (strength, default: 2): Number of bars required on each side of a pivot to confirm it. Range: 1–10.
Price Tolerance % (tolerance, default: 0.5): Percentage range for merging similar levels. Range: 0.1–5.
Max Levels to Show (maxLevels, default: 10): Maximum number of levels displayed. Range: 2–50.
Zone Size % (zoneSizePercent, default: 0.1): Size of the S/R zone as a percentage of the price. Range: 0–1.
Line Width (lineWidth, default: 1): Maximum thickness of level lines. Range: 1–5.
Show Labels (showLabels, default: true): Toggle visibility of level labels.
Label Position (labelPos, default: "Right"): Position of labels ("Left" or "Right").
Level Strength Decay (levelDecay, default: true): Enable gradual reduction in strength for older levels.
Volume Weighting (volumeWeight, default: true): Incorporate volume into level strength calculations.
Support Color (supportColor, default: green): Color for support levels.
Resistance Color (resistColor, default: red): Color for resistance levels.
How It Works
Pivot Detection:
Checks for pivots only after enough bars (2 * strength) have passed.
A high pivot requires strength bars before and after with no higher highs or closes, and a short-term SMA above a long-term SMA.
A low pivot requires strength bars before and after with no lower lows or closes, and a short-term SMA below a long-term SMA.
Level Tracking:
New pivots create levels with initial strength and volume.
Existing levels within tolerance are updated: strength increases, volume takes the maximum value, and price adjusts via a weighted average.
Levels older than lookback * 4 bars with strength below 0.5 are removed.
If the number of levels exceeds maxLevels, the weakest (by calculated strength) are pruned using a selection sort algorithm.
Drawing:
Updates on the last confirmed bar or in real-time.
Lines extend lookback bars left and right from the current bar, with thickness based on touches.
Zones (if enabled) are drawn symmetrically around the level price.
Labels show detailed info, with opacity tied to strength.
Usage
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to any TradingView chart via the Pine Script editor, as designed by .
Adjust Settings: Customize inputs to match your trading strategy (e.g., increase strength for stronger pivots, adjust tolerance for tighter level merging).
Interpret Levels: Focus on thicker, less transparent lines for stronger levels; use zones to identify potential reversal areas.
Combine with Other Tools: Pair with trend indicators or oscillators for confluence in trading decisions.
Notes
Performance: The indicator uses arrays and sorting, which may slow down on very long charts with many levels. Keep maxLevels reasonable for efficiency.
Accuracy: Enhanced by trend confirmation and volume weighting, making it more reliable than basic S/R indicators, thanks to 's design.
Limitations: Real-time updates may shift levels as new pivots form; historical levels are more stable.
Example Settings
For day trading: lookback=10, strength=1, tolerance=0.3, maxLevels=5.
For swing trading: lookback=50, strength=3, tolerance=0.7, maxLevels=10.

EMA Adaptive Trailing StopThe EMA Adaptive Trailing Stop Strategy is a versatile and comprehensive Pine Script designed for TradingView. This script provides an adaptive trailing stop mechanism that leverages the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to adjust trailing stops based on market conditions. The strategy dynamically switches between trending and ranging markets by utilizing both Average True Range (ATR) and Average Directional Index (ADX) to detect market conditions.
Key Features:
EMA-Based Trailing Stop:
The script uses the EMA value to set trailing stops precisely. The EMA offers a more responsive calculation to price changes, ensuring closer and more accurate trailing stops that follow market movements effectively.
Market Condition Detection:
The script employs ATR and ADX to distinguish between trending and ranging markets. ATR measures market volatility, while ADX gauges trend strength. The combination of these two indicators provides a more accurate market condition detection.
Customizable Settings:
The script offers various flexible parameters to adjust EMA length, multipliers, and ATR length. Users can customize these settings according to their preferences and trading strategy.
Two Modes:
The script adapts to market conditions by providing two modes: trending mode and ranging mode. In trending mode, the trailing stop is tighter to follow price movements closely, whereas in ranging mode, the trailing stop is looser to accommodate lower volatility.
Entry and Exit Conditions:

Flux Charts - SFX Screener💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
The SFX Screener by Flux Charts is a multi-timeframe market scanner that extracts and visually organizes key conditions detected by the SFX Algo indicator across multiple assets in real-time. It does not perform independent analysis or generate new signals—instead, it pulls data directly from the SFX Algo’s calculations to ensure full alignment across different timeframes and tickers.
The SFX Algo is a multi-factor trading indicator that integrates trend analysis, signal generation, market overlays, and take-profit/stop-loss levels into a single system. It evaluates multiple trend components, including EMA direction, momentum shifts, and volatility cycles, to determine market conditions. Signal generation is based on an Adjusted Weighted Majority Algorithm, filtering out weaker signals by prioritizing the most reliable market indicators. Market overlays, such as Volatility Bands and the Retracement Wave, provide dynamic support, resistance, exit points, and entry points. Its adaptable structure allows traders to customize settings based on strategy preferences, making it effective for scalping, swing trading, and long-term trend analysis.
The SFX Screener’s purpose is to give traders a dashboard view of these SFX Algo signals across multiple tickers and timeframes in real-time.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The SFX Algo indicator employs an Adjusted Weighted Majority algorithm to generate "buy" and "sell" signals. It evaluates multiple market indicators ("experts"), including momentum, ATR trends, and EMA trends, and assigns weights based on their recent performance. The "Time Weighting" setting allows users to balance between using more historical data or prioritizing recent trends. Unlike traditional weighted majority methods, SFX also dynamically penalizes larger losses. Signals are confirmed based on the consensus of the most successful indicators within the selected time period, filtering out weaker signals during underperforming phases.
The SFX Screener extracts these calculated outputs and visually organizes them into a real-time dashboard. Each signal, status, and volatility condition displayed in the screener is a direct output from the SFX Algo indicator.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
Unlike traditional screeners that rely on preset filters or static conditions, the SFX Screener dynamically updates its dashboard based on live outputs from the SFX Algo’s adaptive algorithm.
Traditional Screeners → Use predefined filters like “price above EMA” or “RSI overbought.” They do not adjust to market dynamics.
SFX Screener → Displays outputs directly from an adaptive algorithm that continuously evaluates trends, volatility, and momentum changes.
The SFX Screener can show SFX Algo's status on 8 different tickers on different timeframes. Key factors that make it unique include:
✅ Real-time sync with SFX Algo → Displays live conditions, not static filters.
✅ Comprehensive Dashboard – This screener provides a complete and customizable dashboard designed to enhance traders' decision-making by consolidating crucial SFX Algo insights into one user-friendly interface.
✅ Multi-Ticker & Multi-Timeframe Analysis – With support for up to 8 tickers and timeframes, traders can effortlessly analyze the bigger market picture, identifying trends and opportunities across different assets and timeframes.
By combining multiple analytical elements in a single view, this screener empowers traders with the insights needed to navigate the market more effectively.
🎯 SFX SCREENER FEATURES:
SFX Algo Signals : This tool can detect SFX Algo signals across different tickers & timeframes.
Volatility Bands : Detection of Volatility Bands Status & Retests.
Retracement Wave : Detection of Retracement Wave Status & Retests.

📊 SFX SCREENER DATA BREAKDOWN
Signal ->
Buy -> The latest signal is a buy signal.
Sell -> The latest signal is a sell signal.
The rating of the signal is shown after the signal type.
Δ⭐ ->
Shows the rating change (delta) after the signal is triggered. Positive values mean that the rating is increased after the signal is given, negative values mean that it's decreased.
Status ->
Displays the amount of time passed after the signal is given.
TP Targets ->
Shows the Take-Profit targets of the signal, if a target was achieved, there is a ✅ symbol near it and the next target it displayed.
V. Bands ->
The Volatility Bands dynamically adjust to market conditions, expanding during high volatility and contracting during low volatility. When the volatility bands are tight, or the upper and lower bands are close to each other, the market is not volatile. During periods of low volatility, it’s common for price to consolidate or move sideways. An early indication of a large price move can occur when the bands widen or open up after being tight. When the volatility bands are wide, it reflects a period of increased volatility, typically during strong price trends or after a breakout. The volatility bands can also act as support and resistance areas. The upper band acts as resistance while the lower band acts as support. These mark out good areas for potential reversals. Breakouts can also occur when price moves beyond the bands, signaling a potential trend in the breakout direction.
Outside -> The price is currently outside of the Volatility Bands.
Inside | Upper -> The price is currently inside the Upper Volatility Band.
Inside | Lower -> The price is currently inside the Lower Volatility Band.
R. Wave ->
The Retracement Wave is used to identify entry points during pullbacks in trending markets. It can also be used to find exit points for open trades. The wave is bullish when price is above it and bearish when the price is below it. The retracement wave can be used as an area to enter during a pullback in a trending market. The wave can also be helpful for managing risk and closing out positions.
Outside | Bullish -> The Retracement Wave is currently Bullish, and the price is outside of it.
Outside | Bearish -> The Retracement Wave is currently Bearish, and the price is outside of it.
Inside | Bullish -> The Retracement Wave is currently Bullish, and the price is inside of it.
Inside | Bearish -> The Retracement Wave is currently Bearish, and the price is inside of it.
Profit & Loss (P&L) ->
Shows the amount of profit or loss the position is currently in. All values are shown in terms of percentage, and positive values mean the position is in profit while negative values mean that the position is in loss.
⚠ Timeframe Restriction : The selected timeframes for analysis cannot be lower than the chart’s current timeframe to ensure proper data alignment.
⏰ ALERTS
This screener supports alerts, so you never miss a key market move. You can choose to receive alerts when a buy or sell signal is given, helping you spot potential trading opportunities. Additionally, you can enable alerts for take-profit or stop-loss levels, which notify you when the price achieves those levels. The alerts will work for each enabled ticker in the settings. You can also toggle webhook format for alerts, and choose to include ticker metadata in it.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. Algorithm Settings
Sensitivity: The sensitivity setting is a key parameter that influences the frequency of signals the SFX Algo generates. By adjusting this parameter, you can control the frequency of signals produced by the algorithm. Using a lower sensitivity setting generates more frequent signals that are highly responsive to minor price fluctuations. Using a higher sensitivity setting reduces the frequency of signals, focusing on more significant price movements and filtering out minor fluctuations.
Signal Strength: The Signal Strength setting filters signals based on their quality, allowing traders to focus on the most reliable opportunities. This feature helps traders balance the quantity and reliability of the algorithm’s signals to suit their trading strategy. Using a lower signal strength will display more signals, including those with lower signal ratings, for broader market coverage. Using a higher signal strength will display fewer signals by prioritizing those with higher signal ratings, reducing market noise.
Time Weighting: The Time Weighting setting in the SFX Algo determines how historical market data is analyzed to generate signals.
a) Recent Trends
Focuses on the most recent movements for short-term analysis. This setting is good for scalpers and intraday traders who need to react quickly to market changes.
b) Mixed Trends
Balances recent and historical price movements for a comprehensive market view. This setting is well-suited for swing traders and those who want to capture medium-term opportunities by combining the benefits of short-term responsiveness with the reliability of long-term trends.
c) Long-term Trends
Relies on extended historical market data to identify broader market trends, making it an excellent choice for traders focused on long-term strategies.
Minimum Star Rating : The Minimum Star Rating setting allows you to filter signals based on their strength, showing only those that meet or exceed your chosen threshold. For instance, setting the minimum star rating to 3 ensures you only receive signals with a rating of 3 stars or higher.
2. Take Profit / Stop Loss Methods
Key Levels
The Key Levels method uses pivot points to set take profit and stop-loss levels. The TP and SL levels are shown when a new signal is generated.
Volatility Bands
This TP/SL method uses the Volatility Bands overlay to set dynamic TP and SL levels. These levels are not predetermined so they will not be shown in advance when a signal is generated.
Signal Rating
Sets take profit and stop-loss levels based on changes in a signal's rating strength. These levels are not predetermined so they will not be shown in advance when a signal is generated.
Auto Stop-Loss
The auto method can only be applied to the SL. The auto method allows the algorithm to detect SL automatically when a momentum shift is detected. You can adjust the risk tolerance of the Auto SL by adjusting the ‘Auto Risk Tolerance’ setting. You can choose between Low, Medium, and High. A high-risk tolerance will result in stop losses being triggered less often.
3. Tickers
You can set, then enable or disable up to 8 tickers in this section to get informed about their latest SFX Algo signal.
‼️ Important Notes
TradingView has limitations when running advanced screeners, resulting in the following restrictions:
Computation Errors:
The computation of using MTF features and viewing several tickers is very intensive on TradingView. This can sometimes cause calculation timeouts. When this occurs simply force the recalculation by modifying one indicator’s settings or by removing the indicator and adding it to your chart again.
Inconsistencies:
You may notice inconsistencies when viewing the screener on a chart with a specific symbol because screener tickers originate from different markets. Since the cryptocurrency market operates 24/7, while stock markets have defined opening and closing hours, the screener may return varying information depending on whether you're currently viewing a cryptocurrency, stock, or currency pair.
kurd fx Dynamic EMA StrategyDynamic EMA Strategy Explanation
This TradingView Pine Script indicator, "Dynamic EMA Strategy," is designed to plot Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) dynamically based on the selected timeframe. It adjusts the EMA periods depending on whether the trader is scalping, swing trading, or position trading.
Functionality
1. Defining EMA Periods Based on Timeframe
The script determines appropriate EMA values based on the selected chart timeframe:

✅ Adaptive Filtering: Dynamically adjusts smoothing based on price volatility.
✅ Cycle-Based Adjustments: Uses historical price action to fine-tune lag vs. responsiveness.
✅ Advanced Phase Control: Traders can shift the moving average forward or backward to optimize signal alignment.
Unlike existing open-source JMA implementations, this version features:
🔹 Enhanced Array-Based Calculations for better memory management & performance.
🔹 Logarithmic and Square Root Scaling to dynamically adjust phase & smoothing.
🔹 Improved Noise Reduction Techniques to minimize false breakouts.
📌 How to Use:
🔹 Trend Confirmation: Use JMA to validate trend direction and avoid whipsaws.
🔹 Trade Entries & Exits: Combine with price action or momentum indicators for refined entry/exit points.
🔹 Scalping & Swing Trading: Ideal for short-term and long-term strategies due to its adaptability.
📌 Why This Version is Unique:
This JMA expands on standard implementations by incorporating multi-level cycle smoothing, phase correction, and adaptive noise filtering. The result? A more precise, stable, and robust trend indicator that performs better than existing open-source versions.
Scalping Tool with Dynamic Take Profit & Stop Loss### **Scalping Indicator: Summary and User Guide**
The **Scalping Indicator** is a powerful tool designed for traders who focus on short-term price movements. It combines **Exponential Moving Averages (EMA)** for trend identification and **Average True Range (ATR)** for dynamic stop loss and take profit levels. The indicator is highly customizable, allowing traders to adapt it to their specific trading style and risk tolerance.
---
### **Key Features**
1. **Trend Identification**:
- Uses two EMAs (Fast and Slow) to identify trend direction.
- Generates **Buy Signals** when the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA.
- Generates **Sell Signals** when the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA.
2. **Dynamic Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL)**:
- **Take Profit (TP)**:
- TP levels are calculated as a percentage above (for long trades) or below (for short trades) the entry price.
- TP levels are **dynamically recalculated** when the price reaches the initial target, allowing for multiple TP levels during a single trade.
- **Stop Loss (SL)**:
- SL levels are calculated using the ATR multiplier, providing a volatility-based buffer to protect against adverse price movements.
3. **Separate Settings for Long and Short Trades**:
- Users can independently enable/disable and configure TP and SL for **Buy** and **Sell** orders.
- This flexibility ensures that the indicator can be tailored to different market conditions and trading strategies.
4. **Visual Signals and Levels**:
- **Buy/Sell Signals**: Clearly marked on the chart with labels ("BUY" or "SELL").
- **TP and SL Levels**: Plotted on the chart for both long and short trades, making it easy to visualize risk and reward.
---
### **How to Use the Scalping Indicator**
#### **1. Setting Up the Indicator**
- Apply the indicator to your chart in TradingView.
- Configure the input parameters based on your trading preferences:
- **Fast Length**: The period for the Fast EMA (default: 5).
- **Slow Length**: The period for the Slow EMA (default: 13).
- **ATR Length**: The period for the ATR calculation (default: 14).
- **Buy/Sell TP and SL**: Enable/disable and set the percentage or ATR multiplier for TP and SL levels.
#### **2. Interpreting the Signals**
- **Buy Signal**:
- When the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA, a "BUY" label appears below the price bar.

- When the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA, a "SELL" label appears above the price bar.
- The TP and SL levels for the short trade are plotted on the chart.
#### **3. Managing Trades**
- **Take Profit (TP)**:
- When the price reaches the initial TP level, the indicator automatically recalculates the next TP level based on the new close price.
- This allows traders to capture additional profits as the trend continues.
- **Stop Loss (SL)**:
- The SL level is based on the ATR multiplier, providing a dynamic buffer against market volatility.
- If the price hits the SL level, the trade is considered closed, and the indicator resets.
#### **4. Customization**
- Adjust the **Fast Length** and **Slow Length** to suit your trading timeframe (e.g., shorter lengths for scalping, longer lengths for swing trading).
- Modify the **ATR Multiplier** and **TP Percentage** to align with your risk-reward ratio.
- Enable/disable TP and SL for long and short trades based on your trading strategy.

[TehThomas] - Market Structure Shift (MSS)
- Market Structure Shift (MSS) Script Overview
This TradingView script is designed to help traders identify Market Structure Shifts (MSS) and Breaks of Structure (BOS), which are key concepts in ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and Smart Money Concepts (SMC) trading. By detecting significant shifts in price action, the script provides visual cues and alerts to help traders spot potential trend changes and continuation patterns.
How the Script Works
1. Identifying Swing Highs & Lows
The script detects swing highs and swing lows based on a pivot strength setting (default: 3).
A swing high forms when a candle’s high is higher than the highs of a set number of candles on both sides.
A swing low forms when a candle’s low is lower than the lows of the surrounding candles.
2. Market Structure Shift (MSS) Detection
A bullish MSS occurs when price closes above the most recent swing high after previously being in a bearish trend.
A bearish MSS occurs when price closes below the most recent swing low after being in a bullish trend.
This signals a potential trend reversal and is often a key area for liquidity grabs and smart money entry points.
3. Break of Structure (BOS) Detection (Optional - Can be enabled/disabled in settings)
A BOS is detected when price continues in the direction of the trend, confirming a structural break rather than a shift.
Bullish BOS: Price breaks a swing high but does not reverse (confirms trend continuation).
Bearish BOS: Price breaks a swing low but continues downward.
BOS levels help traders confirm trend strength and potential trade continuation setups.
4. Drawing Structure Lines & Labels
The script plots horizontal lines at the detected MSS and BOS levels.
Labels such as "MSS" or "BOS" appear at the breakout points.
Traders can customize the line style, color, and text size for better visibility.
5. Alert System for MSS & BOS
The script includes alert conditions that notify traders when an MSS or BOS occurs.
Alerts can be set for:
Any MSS / Any BOS
Bullish MSS / Bullish BOS
Bearish MSS / Bearish BOS
Settings You Can Change
The script allows for full customization through the following input parameters:
Pivot Strength (pivot_strength)
Default: 4
Adjusts how many candles must be considered to form a valid swing high or low.
Higher values result in stronger structure points, while lower values detect short-term movements.
Color Settings
Highs Color (highs) → Default: Blue (for bullish structure)
Lows Color (lows) → Default: Red (for bearish structure)
Toggle Display Options
Show BOS (show_bos) → Enables/disables BOS detection.
Show MSS (show_mss) → Enables/disables MSS detection.
Line & Label Customization
BOS Line Style (bos_style) → Options: Solid, Dashed, Dotted
MSS Line Style (mss_style) → Options: Solid, Dashed, Dotted
BOS & MSS Line Width → Adjustable from 1 to 4 pixels
BOS & MSS Text Size → Options: Tiny, Small, Normal, Large, Huge
BOS & MSS Text Position → Options: Left, Center, Right
Why This Script is Useful
✔ Detects Key Market Structure Changes
MSS and BOS are critical for identifying trend reversals and trend continuations.
Helps traders avoid false breakouts by distinguishing between structural shifts and simple breakouts.
✔ Enhances Smart Money Trading Strategies
MSS often aligns with liquidity grabs before price reverses.
BOS confirms continuation trades in strong trends.
Works well with Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), Order Blocks (OBs), and Liquidity Zones.
✔ Customizable Alerts & Visuals
Traders can enable alerts for MSS and BOS to receive notifications when price shifts.
Adjustable styling ensures clarity across different trading setups.
✔ Works on Any Asset & Timeframe
Suitable for Forex, Crypto, Stocks, and Indices.
Can be used on lower timeframes (scalping) or higher timeframes (swing trading).
How to Use the Market Structure Shift Concept in Trading
1️⃣ Identify Market Conditions
Apply the script and check if price is forming Higher Highs (HH), Higher Lows (HL), Lower Highs (LH), or Lower Lows (LL).
Determine if the market is trending or ranging.
2️⃣ Watch for MSS (Reversal Signals)
Bullish MSS: Price closes above a key swing high → potential bullish reversal.
Bearish MSS: Price closes below a swing low → potential bearish reversal.
3️⃣ Confirm BOS (Trend Continuation Signals)
Bullish BOS: Price continues breaking highs, confirming an uptrend.
Bearish BOS: Price continues breaking lows, confirming a downtrend.
4️⃣ Combine with Other ICT & SMC Concepts
Look for Order Blocks (OBs) and Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) near MSS/BOS levels for better trade entries.
Wait for liquidity grabs before entering trades (avoid stop hunts).
Use higher timeframe MSS/BOS zones as key support & resistance areas.
Final Thoughts
This script is a must-have tool for traders using ICT & SMC trading strategies. It helps identify trend shifts, liquidity grabs, and continuation moves by marking Market Structure Shifts (MSS) and Breaks of Structure (BOS) on the chart.

Multi-Timeframe Confluence IndicatorThe Multi-Timeframe Confluence Indicator strategically combines multiple timeframes with technical tools like EMA and RSI to provide robust, high-probability trading signals. This combination is grounded in the principles of technical analysis and market behavior, tailored for traders across all styles—whether intraday, swing, or positional.
1. The Power of Multi-Timeframe Confluence
Markets are influenced by participants operating on different time horizons:
• Intraday traders act on short-term price fluctuations.
• Swing traders focus on intermediate trends lasting days or weeks.
• Position traders aim to capture multi-month or long-term trends.
By aligning signals from a higher timeframe (macro trend) with a lower timeframe (micro trend), the indicator ensures that short-term entries are in harmony with the broader market direction. This multi-timeframe approach significantly reduces false signals caused by temporary market noise or counter-trend moves.
Example: A bullish trend on the daily chart (higher timeframe) combined with a bullish RSI and EMA alignment on the 15-minute chart (lower timeframe) provides a stronger confirmation than relying on the 15-minute chart alone.
2. Why EMA and RSI Are Essential
Each element of the indicator serves a unique role in ensuring accuracy and reliability:
• EMA (Exponential Moving Average):
• A dynamic trend filter that adjusts quickly to price changes.
• On the higher timeframe, it establishes the overall trend direction (e.g., bullish or bearish).
• On the lower timeframe, it identifies precise entry/exit zones within the trend.
• RSI (Relative Strength Index):
• Adds a momentum-based perspective, confirming whether a trend is backed by strong buying or selling pressure.
• Ensures that signals occur in areas of strength (RSI > 55 for bullish signals, RSI < 45 for bearish signals), filtering out weak or uncertain price movements.
By combining EMA (trend) and RSI (momentum), the indicator delivers confluence-based validation, where both trend and momentum align, making signals more reliable.
3. Cooldown Period for Signal Optimization
Trading in choppy or sideways markets often leads to overtrading and false signals. The cooldown period ensures that once a signal is generated, subsequent signals are suppressed for a defined number of bars. This prevents traders from entering low-probability trades during indecisive market phases, improving overall signal quality.
Example: After a bullish confluence signal, the cooldown period prevents a bearish signal from being triggered prematurely if the market enters a temporary retracement.
4. Use Cases Across Trading Styles
This indicator caters to various trading styles, each benefiting from the confluence of timeframes and technical elements:
• Intraday Trading:
• Use a 1-hour chart as the higher timeframe and a 5-minute chart as the lower timeframe.
• Benefit: Align intraday entries with the hourly trend for higher win rates.
• Swing Trading:
• Use a daily chart as the higher timeframe and a 1-hour chart as the lower timeframe.
• Benefit: Capture multi-day moves while avoiding counter-trend entries.
• Scalping:
• Use a 30-minute chart as the higher timeframe and a 1-minute chart as the lower timeframe.
• Benefit: Enhance scalping efficiency by ensuring short-term trades align with broader intraday trends.
• Position Trading:
• Use a weekly chart as the higher timeframe and a daily chart as the lower timeframe.
• Benefit: Time long-term entries more precisely, maximizing profit potential.
5. Robustness Through Customization
The indicator allows traders to customize:
• Timeframes for higher and lower analysis.
• EMA lengths for trend filtering.
• RSI settings for momentum confirmation.
• Cooldown periods to adapt to market volatility.
This flexibility ensures that the indicator can be tailored to suit individual trading preferences, market conditions, and asset classes, making it a comprehensive tool for any trading strategy.
Why This Mashup Stands Out
The Multi-Timeframe Confluence Indicator is more than a sum of its parts. It leverages:
• EMA’s ability to identify trends, combined with RSI’s insight into momentum, ensuring each signal is well-supported.
• A multi-timeframe perspective that incorporates both macro and micro trends, filtering out noise and improving reliability.
• A cooldown mechanism that prevents overtrading, a common pitfall for traders in volatile markets.
This integration results in a powerful, adaptable indicator that provides actionable, high-confidence signals, reducing uncertainty and enhancing trading performance across all styles.
Shooting Range + FVG By TradingcaochdkIndicator Description: “Shooting Range + Customizable FVG”
This indicator combines two powerful trading tools into one: Shooting Range Signals and Customizable Fair Value Gaps (FVG). It is designed to help traders identify oversold conditions across multiple timeframes and visualize potential price inefficiencies (FVGs) on the chart. Here’s what the indicator can do:
Features:
1. Shooting Range Signals
• Purpose: Identify oversold conditions using the RSI (Relative Strength Index) on two customizable timeframes.
• How it works:
• The RSI value is calculated for two selected timeframes (e.g., 1-minute and 5-minute).
• If the RSI is below the defined thresholds for both timeframes, the chart background turns green, signaling a potential bullish opportunity.
• Customizable Inputs:
• Timeframes for RSI calculations (e.g., 1-minute, 5-minute, daily, etc.).
• RSI thresholds for both lower and higher timeframes.
• Alerts: Built-in alert functionality notifies you when a bullish signal is detected.
2. Customizable Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
• Purpose: Highlight potential price inefficiencies (Fair Value Gaps) based on user-selected timeframes.
• How it works:
• The indicator identifies gaps between candle wicks (price imbalances) on a higher timeframe (e.g., 5-minute).
• Gaps are drawn as rectangles on the chart, extending until the price fills the gap.
• Customizable Inputs:
• Timeframe for FVG detection (e.g., 1-minute, 5-minute, daily, etc.).
• Colors for FVG background and border.
• Auto-Removal: Once the gap is filled, the indicator automatically removes it from the chart for clarity.
Use Cases:
• Day Trading and Scalping:
• Use Shooting Range signals to identify short-term oversold conditions for potential trade entries.
• Combine RSI signals with FVGs to confirm high-probability setups.
• Swing Trading:
• Visualize price inefficiencies on higher timeframes to plan trades around significant levels.
• Enhanced Chart Clarity:
• Highlight relevant price levels and signals without cluttering the chart.
How to Use:
1. Add the indicator to your TradingView chart.
2. Customize the settings:
• Adjust RSI timeframes and thresholds for Shooting Range signals.
• Select a timeframe and colors for FVG detection.
3. Monitor the chart for:
• Green background: Indicates oversold conditions across selected timeframes.
• Highlighted FVGs: Marks potential price inefficiencies for further analysis.
4. Enable alerts to get notified about bullish signals.
Summary:
This indicator combines momentum-based RSI analysis with price action insights from Fair Value Gaps, offering traders a versatile tool for both scalping and swing trading. The customizable settings allow you to tailor the indicator to your specific trading style and preferences.
