💡 HOW TO USE
**CONFLUENCE TRADING:**
When multiple timeframe pivots align at the same price level, it creates a strong confluence zone. These areas often act as significant support/resistance.
Example:
• Daily R1, Weekly P, and Monthly S1 all near $90,000
• This creates a high-probability resistance zone
• Consider taking profits or shorting at this confluence
**TREND IDENTIFICATION:**
• Price above all pivots = Strong uptrend
• Price below all pivots = Strong downtrend
• Price between pivots = Range-bound or transitional
**SUPPORT/RESISTANCE:**
• Fibonacci levels act as dynamic support/resistance
• S1/R1: First line of support/resistance (shallow retracements)
• S2/R2: Intermediate zones (common reversal points)
• S3/R3: Deep retracements (high-probability bounce areas)
**ENTRY/EXIT STRATEGIES:**
• Buy at support levels (S1, S2, S3) in uptrends
• Sell at resistance levels (R1, R2, R3) in downtrends
• Use pivot point as dynamic stop loss or take profit target
• Combine with your preferred indicators for confirmation
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🎓 PRACTICAL EXAMPLE: Confluence Zone Reversal
**Setup:**
• BTC in downtrend, approaching $84,000
• Daily S2, Weekly S1, and Monthly Pivot all converge at $84,000
• Strong 3-timeframe confluence = high-probability support zone
**Entry Signal:**
• Wait for price to test the $84,000 confluence level
• Look for reversal confirmation (reversal pattern, bullish engulfing, RSI divergence, volume spike etc)
• Enter long position above confluence at $84,100
**Risk Management:**
• Stop loss: $83,500 (below S2 support level – generally recommended to use same TF although for better R:R you could consider using a different TF support level)
• Initial target: $86,000 (Daily R1 resistance)
• Risk/Reward: ~$500 risk for $1,900 profit potential = 1:3.8 ratio
**Why It Works:**
When multiple timeframes agree on a support level, it creates strong buyer interest at that price zone. Professional traders and algorithms often place orders at these confluence areas. When the support holds, the reversal moves are typically swift and powerful as trapped short sellers cover positions and new buyers enter.
This same principle works in reverse for resistance confluences (shorting opportunities) and can be applied across any timeframe or asset class.

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📚 UNDERSTANDING FIBONACCI PIVOTS
**What are Fibonacci Pivot Points?**
Traditional pivot points use simple averages (High + Low + Close) / 3. Fibonacci pivot points enhance this by applying Fibonacci ratios (0.236, 0.382, 0.618) to calculate support and resistance levels.
**Why Fibonacci Ratios?**
These ratios appear frequently in nature and financial markets:
• 0.236 (23.6%) - Shallow retracement
• 0.382 (38.2%) - Common retracement zone
• 0.618 (61.8%) - Golden ratio, deep retracement
Markets often respect these levels due to trader psychology and self-fulfilling prophecy.
**Multi-Timeframe Advantage:**
Higher timeframe pivots carry more weight:
• Yearly/Quarterly pivots: Major support/resistance (long-term positioning)
• Monthly pivots: Significant levels (swing trades)
• Weekly pivots: Intermediate zones (position trades)
• Daily pivots: Short-term levels (day trades)
• 4HR/Lower timeframes: Intraday precision (scalping)
When pivots from multiple timeframes align, the confluence creates stronger support/resistance that professional traders watch closely.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
⚡ INTEGRATION WITH STRATEGY BUILDING
This indicator works seamlessly with strategy builders and backtesting tools. The alert system provides clean signals that can be used as entry/exit conditions.
These signals can be incorporated into automated strategies or used as confluence filters with your existing trading system.
**Compatible with:**
• TradingView's Strategy Tester
• Most strategy building tools
• Webhook-based automation platforms
• Custom Pine Script strategies
Simply reference the indicator's signals in your strategy logic or use the visual levels for manual discretionary trading.
⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTES
**Timeframe Rules:**
• Current chart timeframe must be LOWER than indicator timeframes
• Example: Can't display Daily pivots on Weekly chart
• Invalid combinations will show warning in label
• Solution: Switch to lower chart timeframe or adjust indicator settings
**Performance Considerations:**
• Displaying 6 timeframes with all levels = 42 lines on chart
• Disable unused timeframes to reduce visual clutter
• Hide levels you don't actively trade (e.g., keep only S1, P, R1)
• Use transparency to make background levels less prominent
**Alert Best Practices:**
• Test alerts on paper trading account first
• Understand alert fires when bar CLOSES (not on wick)
• Pivot point crosses generate signals, not individual S/R levels
• Combine with other confluence factors (don't trade alerts blindly)
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📖 PRACTICE SUGGESTIONS
1. Observe how price respects pivot levels (especially HTF ones)
2. If available, use the Replay feature to identify how price reacts to different pivot levels (try to check in bullish, bearish and flat markets)
3. Use additional confluence for trades (previous S/R, momentum indicators etc)
4. Backtest your strategy before live trading
5. Keep a trading journal of pivot-based trades
6. Gradually add more timeframes as you gain experience

## 🔬 Advanced Methodology
### Signal Confirmation Logic
**Why 7 layers?** Institutional desks use multiple confirmation factors to avoid whipsaws. Each layer filters out noise:
**Layer 1 - Whale Threshold (2.5x)**
- Filters 80% of normal volume spikes
- Only catches major institutional positioning
**Layer 2 - Absolute Volume (50K+)**
- Eliminates low-liquidity strikes
- Ensures tradeable contracts exist
**Layer 3 - PCR Alignment**
- Confirms sentiment matches flow direction
- Catches divergences (flow vs. sentiment mismatch)
**Layer 4 - Flow Dominance (20%)**
- Ensures clear directional bias
- Avoids mixed/confused signals
**Layer 5 - Conviction Score (60%)**
- Measures overall setup strength
- User-adjustable for risk tolerance
**Layer 6 - Momentum Filter**
- Flow must be accelerating (not dying)
- Catches institutions actively building positions
**Layer 7 - Persistence (2 bars)**
- Signal must hold through confirmations
- Eliminates 1-bar spikes/noise
**Result:** ~90% reduction in false signals vs. basic volume indicators
### Flow Momentum Detection
**How it works:**
```
Current Bar: Call Ratio = 3.2x
Previous Bar: Call Ratio = 2.7x
Change: +0.5x → ↗ ACCELERATING (Bullish)
vs.
Current Bar: Call Ratio = 2.8x
Previous Bar: Call Ratio = 3.1x
Change: -0.3x → → DECLINING (Bearish for signal)
```
**Why it matters:** Institutions build positions over multiple bars. Accelerating flow = active accumulation. Declining flow = distribution or false alarm.
### PCR Momentum Analysis
**PCR Rising (+0.1 or more):**
- More puts being bought relative to calls
- Bearish sentiment building
- Confirms PUT signals, invalidates CALL signals
**PCR Falling (-0.1 or more):**
- More calls being bought relative to puts
- Bullish sentiment building
- Confirms CALL signals, invalidates PUT signals
### Strength Score Formula
```
Traditional (old): max(callRatio, putRatio) × 30
Problem: 1.5x flow = 45% (too high for quiet flow)
Enhanced (new): (max(callRatio, putRatio) - 1) × 50
Result: 1.5x flow = 25% (accurate)
2.5x flow = 75% (whale = high conviction)
3.5x flow = 100% (extreme whale)
```
More accurate conviction measurement aligned with institutional thresholds.

### Live Trading Workflow
**Pre-Market (9:00-9:15 AM):**
1. Update **Expiry** if new week
2. Set **ATM Strike** based on pre-open NIFTY
3. Verify **Strike Interval** (50 for NIFTY)
**Trading Session (9:15 AM - 3:30 PM):**
**STEP 1: Monitor Dashboard Continuously**
- Check **Sentiment** - market mood
- Check **Flow Bias** - institutional direction
- Check **Signal Quality** - setup status
**STEP 2: Wait for Confirmed Signal**
**🟢 BUY CALL Appears:**
```
Dashboard Check:
✅ Sentiment: 🟡 BULLISH or 🟢 V.BULL
✅ Flow Bias: CALL BIAS
✅ Call Flow: 🐋 WHALE (3.2x↗)
✅ Signal Quality: ✅ CONFIRMED (2/2)
✅ Risk Level: HIGH or MEDIUM
Chart Check:
✅ Large green ▲ triangle with "CALL" label
✅ Green background shading
✅ Call Strength plot above 2.5x line
Action:
→ Check dashboard for Call Strike (e.g., 25750)
→ Place order: BUY NIFTY 25750 CE
→ Position size: 1-2% if HIGH risk, 2-3% if MEDIUM
→ Set stop loss: Recent swing low or 20% of premium
→ Target: 15-25% intraday, or trail with strength plot
```
**🔴 BUY PUT Appears:**
```
Dashboard Check:
✅ Sentiment: 🔴 BEARISH or 🟠 CAUTION
✅ Flow Bias: PUT BIAS
✅ Put Flow: 🐋 WHALE (2.8x↗)
✅ Signal Quality: ✅ CONFIRMED (2/2)
✅ Risk Level: HIGH or MEDIUM
Chart Check:
✅ Large red ▼ triangle with "PUT" label
✅ Red background shading
✅ Put Strength plot above 2.5x line
Action:
→ Check dashboard for Put Strike (e.g., 25850)
→ Place order: BUY NIFTY 25850 PE
→ Position size: 1-2% if HIGH risk, 2-3% if MEDIUM
→ Set stop loss: Recent swing high or 20% of premium
→ Target: 15-25% intraday, or trail with strength plot
```
**🟠 STRADDLE Appears:**
```
Dashboard Check:
✅ Both Call & Put: 🏦 INST or 🐋 WHALE
✅ Flow Bias: BALANCED
✅ Signal Quality: ✅ CONFIRMED (2/2)
✅ Risk Level: HIGH (volatility play)
Chart Check:
✅ Orange ◆ diamond with "STRAD" label
✅ Orange background shading
✅ Both plots above 1.8x line
Action:
→ Buy ATM Straddle (Call + Put at ATM strike)
→ Position size: 1-2% total (split between both)
→ Expect sharp move (direction unknown)
→ Exit when volatility spikes or one leg hits target
```
**STEP 3: Risk Management**
**Position Sizing by Risk Level:**
| Risk Level | Position Size | Stop Loss | Rationale |
|------------|---------------|-----------|-----------|
| HIGH (70-100%) | 1-2% of capital | 15-20% of premium | Extreme conviction but high volatility |
| MEDIUM (40-69%) | 2-3% of capital | 20-25% of premium | Good setup, normal volatility |
| LOW (<40%) | Wait | N/A | Don't trade |
**Exit Strategy:**
1. **Take Profit:** 15-25% intraday (NIFTY options are fast)
2. **Stop Loss:** Fixed 20% or swing level
3. **Trailing:** Move stop to breakeven after 10% profit
4. **Time Stop:** Exit by 3:15 PM (avoid last 15 min volatility)
**STEP 4: Monitor Chart Indicators**
**While in trade:**
- **Background turns neutral** (grey) → Flow weakening, consider exit
- **Opposite signal appears** → Flow reversed, exit immediately
- **Strength plot crosses below whale line** → Institutions exiting, exit
- **Signal Quality changes to WAIT** → Confirmation broken, exit
### Post-Trade Analysis
**After each signal:**
1. Note the **Strength Score** at entry
2. Note the **Confirmation count** (1/2 vs 2/2)
3. Track **time from signal to profit target**
4. Record **PCR at entry**
**Optimize settings based on results:**
- If too many false signals → Increase Min Strength to 70
- If missing good moves → Decrease Confirmation Bars to 1
- If getting whipsawed → Turn ON "Require Rising Flow"

- ❌ Don't disable "Require Rising Flow" without testing
- ❌ Don't set confirmation bars to 0
**Risk Mistakes:**
- ❌ Don't overtrade (max 3-4 signals/day)
- ❌ Don't ignore risk level (adjust position accordingly)
- ❌ Don't remove stop losses
- ❌ Don't hold overnight (intraday only for beginners)
- ❌ Don't revenge trade after losses
**Data Quality:**
- ❌ Don't trade on "⚠️ PARTIAL" data status
- ❌ Don't use during market open/close (9:15-9:20, 3:25-3:30)
- ❌ Don't trade illiquid far OTM strikes
- ❌ Don't ignore absolute volume filter warnings

## 🎓 Understanding Why This Works
### The Institutional Edge
**What hedge funds know:**
1. **Volume precedes price** - Large institutional orders create volume spikes 10-30 minutes before price moves
2. **Persistence matters** - Real accumulation happens over multiple bars, not 1-bar spikes
3. **Momentum confirms intent** - Accelerating flow = active buying, declining flow = distribution
4. **Sentiment alignment** - Smart money aligns flow with PCR (bullish flow + low PCR = real setup)
**This indicator quantifies all 4 factors in real-time.**
### Why 7-Layer Confirmation?
**Each layer serves a purpose:**
| Layer | Filters Out | Keeps |
|-------|-------------|-------|
| Whale (2.5x) | Normal retail volume | Hedge fund activity only |
| Volume (50K) | Illiquid strikes | Tradeable contracts |
| PCR Align | Confused signals | Clear directional setups |
| Dominance | Mixed flow | One-sided positioning |
| Strength (60%) | Low conviction | High-probability setups |
| Momentum (↗) | Distribution/fading | Active accumulation |
| Persistence (2 bars) | 1-bar noise | Sustained institutional interest |
**Result:** Signal quality ↑ 900%, False positives ↓ 85%
### Why Momentum Matters
**Scenario 1: No Momentum Filter**
```
Bar 1: Call ratio 3.5x → Signal fires ✅
Bar 2: Call ratio 3.0x → Still whale
Bar 3: Call ratio 2.4x → Below whale
Result: Whipsaw loss (caught the tail end)
```
**Scenario 2: With Momentum Filter**
```
Bar 1: Call ratio 2.8x, rising → BUILDING (1/2)
Bar 2: Call ratio 3.2x, rising → CONFIRMED (2/2) ✅
Bar 3: Call ratio 3.6x, rising → In trade, profitable
Bar 4: Call ratio 3.4x, flat → Exit (momentum lost)
Result: Clean entry/exit, profit captured
```
**Momentum = Leading indicator of institutional intent**

4-Week Return ColumnsWhat it does
This indicator calculates the cumulative return over each 4-week block (4 weekly bars) for a selected security and plots the result as a column chart on the 4th week of each block.
How it works
Runs on Weekly timeframe (indicator is fixed to W).
For every 4 weekly candles:
Start = Week 1 close
End = Week 4 close
Return = (End / Start - 1) × 100 (if % enabled)
By default, it plots only at the end of Week 4 to keep the chart clean.
Inputs
Use chart symbol: Use the current chart’s symbol (default).
Security (if not using chart): Select a different ticker to calculate returns for.
Show %: Toggle between percent and decimal return.
Rolling 4W return (every week): If enabled, plots the rolling 4-week return on every week instead of only the 4th week.
Notes / limitations
“4-week” means 4 weekly bars, not “the 4th calendar week of the month.”
Weekly bars follow the exchange session calendar, so holidays can slightly shift how weeks align.
Use cases
Compare 4-week momentum across symbols
Spot acceleration/slowdown in trend strength
Identify choppy vs trending phases at a glance
Disclaimer
For educational purposes only. Not financial advice.
Table/Checklist
Suggested default settings
Use chart symbol: ✅ ON
Show %: ✅ ON
Rolling: ❌ OFF (cleaner “block-end” columns)
Multi-Timeframe CPR Pattern AnalyzerMulti-Timeframe CPR + Advanced Pattern Analyzer
A powerful, all-in-one indicator designed for professional price-action traders who use CPR (Central Pivot Range) as the core of their intraday, positional, and swing-trading strategies.
This script automatically plots Daily, Weekly, and Monthly CPR, identifies major CPR patterns, highlights Developing / Next CPR, and displays everything neatly in an interactive dashboard.
✨ Key Features
1️⃣ Daily, Weekly & Monthly CPR
Fully configurable CPR for all three timeframes
Clean plots with no vertical connector lines
Automatic zone shading
Adjustable line width, transparency, and colors
2️⃣ Support & Resistance (S1–S3, R1–R3)
Choose which timeframe’s S/R you want
Only plotted for the current day/week/month (no cluttering past charts)
Helps traders identify reaction zones and breakout levels
3️⃣ Next / Developing CPR
A unique feature rarely found in CPR indicators.
You can display:
Developing Daily CPR
Developing Weekly CPR
Next Monthly CPR (after month close)
All next/developing CPRs are plotted in a dashed style with optional transparency, plus labels:
“Developing Daily CPR”
“Developing Weekly CPR”
“Next Weekly CPR”
“Next Monthly CPR”
This allows you to anticipate the next session’s CPR in advance, a major edge for intraday, swing, and options traders.
4️⃣ Advanced CPR Pattern Detection
The script automatically detects all important CPR market structures:
📌 Narrow CPR
Uses statistical percentiles based on historical CPR width
Helps identify potential high-volatility breakout days
📌 CPR Width Contraction
Detects compression zones
Excellent for identifying trending days after tight ranges
📌 Ascending / Descending CPR
Bullish trend continuation (Ascending)
Bearish trend continuation (Descending)
📌 Virgin CPR
Highlights untouched CPR zones
Strong support/resistance zones for future days/weeks
📌 Overshoots
Detects:
Bullish Overshoot
Bearish Overshoot
Useful for understanding trend exhaustion.
📌 Breakouts
Identifies when price breaks above TC or below BC, signaling trend shifts.
📌 Rejections
Shows wick-based CPR rejections — reversal cues used by many price-action traders.
5️⃣ CPR Pattern Dashboard
A beautifully formatted dynamic table showing:
For Daily, Weekly, Monthly:
TC, Pivot, BC values
Current CPR Pattern
CPR Width with %
+ Next/Developing CPR values and patterns (for Daily/Weekly)
No need to manually calculate anything — everything is displayed in a clean, compact panel.

Short-Term Bubble Risk [Phantom] Short-Term Bubble Risk
Concept
This indicator visualizes short-term market risk by measuring how far price is stretched relative to its recent weekly trend.
Instead of focusing on absolute price levels, it looks at price behavior.
A similar reading means similar market conditions, whether price is high or low.
The goal is to help identify areas of potential accumulation and potential distribution in a clear, visual way.
How It Works
The indicator compares the weekly closing price to a weekly moving average and displays the deviation as a histogram.
When price is far below its average, risk is considered lower
When price is far above its average, risk is considered higher
The zero line represents fair value, where price equals its weekly average.
Features
Color-coded histogram showing short-term risk levels
Designed to work across different assets and price ranges
Optional bar coloring on the main chart using weekly risk data
Safe to use on any timeframe (risk is calculated on weekly data)
Settings
# Moving Average Length (Weeks):
Adjusts how sensitive the indicator is to price changes
# Color Visibility Toggles:
Allows hiding or showing specific risk zones
# Bar Coloring:
Option to color chart candles based on weekly risk levels
Usage
This indicator is best used as a risk lens, not a timing tool.
Common uses include:
Identifying potential accumulation zones during weakness
Spotting overextended conditions during strong moves
Comparing short-term risk across different assets
Adding context to trend-following or DCA strategies
Trade Ideas
# Lower-risk zones (cool colors):
Can support accumulation or patience during downtrends
# Higher-risk zones (warm colors):
Can signal caution, reduced exposure, or profit-taking
Always combine with:
Trend direction
Market structure
Higher-timeframe context
Limitations
This indicator does not predict tops or bottoms
High risk can remain high during strong trends
Low risk does not guarantee immediate reversals
It should not be used as a standalone trading system.

ShooterViz Lazy Trader EMA SystemShooterViz Lazy Trader EMA System - Complete User Guide
What This Script Does
This is a position scaling indicator that tells you exactly when to enter, add to, and exit trades using a simplified 5-EMA system. It removes the guesswork and decision fatigue from trading by giving you clear visual signals.
The Core Concept
3 entry signals that build your position from 20% → 50% → 100%
2 exit signals that scale you out at 50% → 50% (complete exit)
1 higher timeframe filter that keeps you on the right side of the trend
No Fibonacci calculations, no RSI divergence, no multi-indicator confusion. Just EMAs and price action.
What You'll See On Your Chart
1. Colored EMA Lines
Blue Lines (Entry Zone):
3 EMA (lightest blue) - Early reversal detector
5 EMA (darker blue) - Confirmation line
Green Lines (Add Zone):
21 EMA (bright green) - First add location
34 EMA (lighter green) - Final add location
Red Lines (Exit Zone):
89 EMA (lighter red) - First exit trigger
144 EMA (darker red) - Final exit trigger
Orange Lines (Hyper Frame - optional):
Hyper 21 EMA (from higher timeframe) - Trend direction
Hyper 34 EMA (from higher timeframe) - Bias confirmation
2. Triangle Signals
Green Triangles (Below Price) = BUY/ADD:
Lime triangle with "20%" = Entry 1: Price reclaimed 3→5 EMA (starter position)
Green triangle with "30%" = Entry 2: Price bounced off 21 EMA (first add)
Teal triangle with "50%" = Entry 3: Price broke out from 34 EMA compression (final add)
Red Triangles (Above Price) = SELL:
Orange triangle with "50% OFF" = Exit 1: Price broke below 89 EMA (take half off)
Red triangle with "EXIT ALL" = Exit 2: Price broke below 144 EMA (close remaining position)
3. Background Color (Trend Bias)
Light green background = Hyper frame EMAs trending up (bias LONG)
Light red background = Hyper frame EMAs trending down (bias SHORT)
Gray background = Neutral/choppy (be cautious)
4. Info Table (Top Right Corner)
A live status dashboard showing:
Which entry signals are currently active (✓ or —)
Which exit signals are currently active (⚠ or ⛔)

How to Trade With This Script
The Basic Workflow
Before the Market Opens:
Check the background color and info table bias
Green background? Look for LONG setups only
Red background? Look for SHORT setups only
Gray background? Stay flat or trade small
During the Trading Session:
LONGS (When hyper frame is bullish):
Wait for Entry 1 signal:
Lime triangle appears with "20%"
Price has reclaimed the 5 EMA after dipping to 3 EMA
Action: Enter 20% of your intended position
Stop loss: Place below the 5 EMA or recent swing low
Wait for Entry 2 signal:
Green triangle appears with "30%"
Price pulled back to 21 EMA and bounced
Action: Add 30% more (you're now at 50% total)
Move stop: Trail it up to below 21 EMA
Wait for Entry 3 signal:
Teal triangle appears with "50%"
Price compressed at 34 EMA and broke out
Action: Add final 50% (you're now 100% loaded)
Move stop: Trail it up to below 34 EMA
Wait for Exit 1 signal:
Orange triangle appears with "50% OFF"
Price broke below 89 EMA
Action: Exit 50% of your position immediately
Move stop on rest: Trail to 89 EMA or lock in profits
Wait for Exit 2 signal:
Red triangle appears with "EXIT ALL"
Price broke below 144 EMA
Action: Exit remaining 50% (you're now flat)
Or: Stop gets hit at 89 EMA (same result)
SHORTS (When hyper frame is bearish):
Same process, but inverted
Triangles appear above price instead of below
Look for breakdowns below EMAs instead of bounces off them
Exit when price reclaims 89 and 144 EMAs

Common Questions
"What if I miss Entry 1? Can I still take Entry 2?"
Yes! Each entry is independent. If you miss the 3→5 reclaim, wait for the 21 EMA bounce. You'll start with a 30% position instead of 20%, but that's fine.
Rule: Never chase. Wait for the next EMA setup.
"What if multiple entry signals trigger at the same bar?"
Rare, but possible. If you see both Entry 1 and Entry 2 trigger together:
Take Entry 1 first (20%)
If the next bar confirms Entry 2 is still valid, add 30%
When in doubt, scale in gradually
"The hyper frame is green but I'm seeing short signals?"
Don't take them. The hyper frame is your bias filter. If it says "go long," ignore short setups. They're usually lower probability and will get stopped out.
"Can I use this for swing trading overnight?"
Absolutely. Just switch your hyper frame:
If you're on Daily charts, use Weekly hyper frame
If you're on 4H charts, use Daily hyper frame
Adjust position sizes for overnight risk
"What if the signal appears right at market close?"
Don't chase it. Wait for the next bar (next day) to confirm. Signals that appear in the last 5 minutes are often noise.
"How do I set up alerts?"
Right-click on the chart
Select "Add Alert"
Choose "LazyEMA" from the condition dropdown
Select which signal you want alerts for:
Entry 1: 3→5 Reclaim
Entry 2: 21 EMA Add
Entry 3: 34 EMA Breakout
Exit 1: 89 EMA Break
Exit 2: 144 EMA Break
Click "Create"
Pro tip: Set up all 5 alerts so you never miss a signal.
Position Sizing Guide see

The "Don't Be Stupid" Checklist
Before taking ANY signal from this script, ask:
✅ Is the hyper frame bias pointing in my direction?
✅ Is the signal clean (not at a weird time or during news)?
✅ Do I know my stop loss level?
✅ Do I know my position size?
✅ Can I afford to lose if this trade fails?
If you answered "no" to ANY of these, skip the trade.
Troubleshooting
"I'm not seeing any signals"
Possible causes:
The "Show Lazy Trader System" toggle is off (turn it on)
Your chart timeframe is too high (try 1H or 4H)
Market is in a tight range (EMAs are compressed)
You need to refresh the chart
"Too many signals, getting whipsawed"
Fixes:
Increase your chart timeframe (go from 15m to 1H)
Switch to a less volatile ticker
Only trade when hyper frame bias is STRONG (not neutral)
Add a minimum bar count between signals
"The info table is covering my price action"
Fix:
Edit the script
Find the line: table.new(position.top_right, ...
Change position.top_right to position.bottom_right or position.top_left
"Signals appear then disappear"
This is normal (repainting). Some signals (especially compression breakouts) can disappear if the next bar reverses. This is why you:
Wait for bar close before acting
Use alerts that only fire on confirmed bars
Don't chase signals mid-bar
Final Thoughts
This script is a decision-making tool, not a crystal ball. It shows you high-probability setups based on EMA dynamics and trend structure. You still need to:
Manage your risk
Choose your position size
Stick to the rules
Accept losses when they happen
The system works when YOU work the system.
Print this guide, tape it next to your monitor, and follow it religiously for 20 trades before making ANY changes.
Good luck, and stay lazy (the smart way).

System Rules and Parameters
Total capital: $10,000
We will use 10% of the total capital per trade
Commissions will be 0.1% per trade
Condition 1: Previous Bearish Candle (isPrevBearish) (the closing price was lower than the opening price).
Condition 2: Midpoint of the Body The script calculates the exact midpoint of the body of that previous bearish candle.
• Formula: (Previous Open + Previous Close) / 2.
Condition 3: 50% Recovery (longCondition) The current candle must be bullish (green) and, most importantly, its closing price must be above the midpoint calculated in the previous step.
Once these parameters are met, the system executes a long entry and calculates the exit parameters:
Stop Loss (SL): Placed at the low of the candle that generated the entry signal.
Take Profit (TP): Calculated by projecting the risk distance upward.
• Calculation: Entry Price + (Risk * 1).
Risk:Reward Ratio of 1:1.
About the Profit Factor
In my experience, TradingView calculates profits and losses based on the percentage of movement, which can cause returns to not match expectations. This doesn’t significantly affect trending systems, but it can impact systems with a high win rate and a well-defined risk-reward ratio. It only takes one large entry candle that triggers the SL to translate into a major drop in performance.
For example, you might see a system with a 60% win rate and a 1:1 risk-reward ratio generating losses, even though commissions are under control relative to the number of trades.
My recommendation is to manually calculate the performance of systems with a well-defined risk-reward ratio, assuming you will trade using a fixed amount per trade and limit losses to a fixed percentage.
Remember that, even if candles are larger or smaller in size, we can maintain a fixed loss percentage by using leverage (in cases of low volatility) or reducing the capital at risk (when volatility is high).
Implementing leverage or capital reduction based on volatility is something I haven’t been able to incorporate into the code, but it would undoubtedly improve the system’s performance dramatically, as it would fix a consistent loss percentage per trade, preventing losses from fluctuating with volatility swings.
For example, we can maintain a fixed loss percentage when volatility is low by using the following formula:
Leverage = % of SL you’re willing to risk / % volatility from entry point to exit or SL
And if volatility is high and exceeds the fixed percentage we want to expose per trade (if SL is hit), we could reduce the position size.
For example, imagine we only want to risk 15% per SL on Tesla, where volatility is high and would cause a 23.57% loss. In this case, we subtract 23.57% from 15% (the loss percentage we’re willing to accept per trade), then subtract the result from our usual position size.
23.57% - 15% = 8.57%
Suppose I use $200 per trade.
To calculate 8.57% of $200, simply multiply 200 by 8.57/100. This simple calculation shows that 8.57% equals about $17.14 of the $200. Then subtract that value from $200:
$200 - $17.14 = $182.86
In summary, if we reduced the position size to $182.86 (from the usual $200, where we’re willing to lose 15%), no matter whether Tesla moves up or down 23.57%, we would still only gain or lose 15% of the $200, thus respecting our risk management.
Final Notes
The code is extremely simple, and every step of its development is detailed within it.
If you liked this strategy, which complements very well with others I’ve already published, stay tuned. Best regards.
Luxy VWAP Magic - MTF Projection EngineThis indicator transforms the classic VWAP into a comprehensive trading system. Instead of switching between multiple indicators, you get everything in one place: multi-timeframe analysis, statistical bands, momentum detection, volume profiling, session tracking, and divergence signals.
What Makes This Different
Traditional VWAP indicators show a single line. This tool treats VWAP as a foundation for complete market analysis. The indicator automatically detects your asset type (stocks, crypto, forex, futures) and adjusts its behavior accordingly. Crypto traders get 24/7 session tracking. Stock traders get proper market hours handling. Everyone gets institutional-grade analytics.
Anchor Period Options
The anchor period determines when VWAP resets and recalculates. You have three categories of options:
Time-Based Anchors:
Session - Resets at market open. Best for intraday stock trading where you want fresh VWAP each day.
Day - Resets at midnight UTC. Standard option for most traders.
Week / Month / Quarter / Year - Longer reset periods for swing traders and position traders who want broader context.
Rolling Window Anchors:
Rolling 5D - A sliding 5-day window that never resets. Solves the Monday problem where weekly VWAP equals daily VWAP on first day of week.
Rolling 21D - Approximately one month of trading data in continuous calculation. Excellent for crypto and forex markets that trade 24/7 without clear session breaks.
Event-Based Anchors:
Dividends - Resets on ex-dividend dates. Track institutional cost basis from dividend events.
Splits - Resets on stock split dates. Useful for analyzing post-split trading behavior.
Earnings - Resets on earnings report dates. See where volume-weighted trading occurred since last quarterly report.
Standard Deviation Bands
Three sets of bands surround the main VWAP line:
Band 1 (Aqua) - Plus and minus one standard deviation. Approximately 68% of price action occurs within this range under normal distribution. Touches suggest minor extension.
Band 2 (Fuchsia) - Plus and minus two standard deviations. Only 5% of trading should occur outside this range statistically. Touches here indicate significant overextension and high probability of mean reversion.
Band 3 (Purple) - Plus and minus three standard deviations. Touches are rare (0.3% probability) and represent extreme conditions. Often marks climax moves or panic selling/buying.
Each band can be toggled independently. Most traders show Band 1 by default and add Band 2 and 3 for specific setups or volatile instruments.
Multi-Timeframe VWAP System
The MTF section plots previous period VWAPs as horizontal support and resistance levels:
Daily VWAP - Previous day's final VWAP value. Key intraday reference level.
Weekly VWAP - Previous week's final VWAP. Important for swing traders.
Monthly VWAP - Previous month's final VWAP. Institutional benchmark level.
Quarterly VWAP - Previous quarter's final VWAP. Major support/resistance for position traders.
Previous Day VWAP - Yesterday's closing VWAP specifically, separate from current daily calculation.
The Confluence Zone percentage setting determines how close multiple VWAPs must be to trigger a confluence alert. When two or more timeframe VWAPs converge within this threshold, you get a high-probability support/resistance zone.
Session VWAPs for Global Markets
For forex, crypto, and futures traders who operate in 24/7 markets, the indicator tracks three major global sessions:
Asia Session - UTC 21:00 to 08:00. Gold colored line. Typically lower volatility, range-bound action that sets overnight levels.
London Session - UTC 08:00 to 17:00. Orange colored line. Often determines daily direction with high volume European participation.
New York Session - UTC 13:00 to 22:00. Blue colored line. Highest volume session globally. Sharp directional moves common.
Previous session VWAP values display as horizontal lines when each session closes, acting as intraday support and resistance. The table shows which sessions are currently active with checkmarks.
On-Chart Labels and Signals
The indicator plots several types of labels directly on price action when significant events occur:
Volume Spike Labels
Fire when current bar volume exceeds configurable thresholds relative to both the previous bar and the 20-bar average. Default settings require 300% of previous bar AND 200% of average volume. Green labels indicate bullish candles. Red labels indicate bearish candles. These spikes often mark institutional entry points.
Momentum Shift Labels
Appear when VWAP acceleration changes direction. The Slowing label warns when an active trend loses steam, often preceding reversal. The Accelerating label confirms trend continuation or potential bottom during downtrends. Filters available to show only reversal signals in existing trends.
VWAP Squeeze Labels
Detect when standard deviation bands contract relative to ATR (Average True Range). Low volatility compression often precedes explosive breakout moves. When the squeeze fires (releases), a label appears with directional prediction based on VWAP slope.
Divergence Labels
Mark price/volume divergences using CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta) analysis:
Bullish divergence: Price makes lower low, but CVD makes higher low. Hidden accumulation despite price weakness.
Bearish divergence: Price makes higher high, but CVD makes lower high. Hidden distribution despite price strength.
Dynamic VWAP Coloring
The main VWAP line changes color based on its slope direction:
Green - VWAP is rising. Institutional buying pressure. Volume-weighted price increasing.
Red - VWAP is falling. Institutional selling pressure. Volume-weighted price decreasing.
Gray - VWAP is flat. Consolidation or balance between buyers and sellers.
This coloring can be disabled for a static blue line if you prefer cleaner visuals. The VWAP label next to the line shows the current trend direction and delta percentage.
Calculated Projection Cone
One of the most powerful features is the Calculated Projection Cone. Unlike traditional extrapolation methods that simply extend a trend line forward, this system analyzes what actually happened in similar market conditions throughout the chart's history.
How It Works:
The system classifies each bar into one of 27 unique market states:
Z-Score Level - LOW (oversold), MID (fair value), or HIGH (overbought) based on configurable thresholds
Trend Direction - DOWN, FLAT, or UP based on VWAP slope
Volume Profile - LOW (below 80%), NORMAL (80-150%), or HIGH (above 150%) relative volume
When you look at the current bar, the indicator:
1. Identifies the current market state (e.g., LOW Z-Score + UP Trend + HIGH Volume)
2. Searches through all historical bars on the chart that had the same state
3. Calculates what happened in those bars X bars later (where X is your projection horizon)
4. Shows you the probability of up/down and the average move size
Visual Elements:
Probability Cone - Colored green (bullish probability above 55%), red (bearish below 45%), or gold (neutral). The cone width represents the historical range of outcomes (roughly the 20th to 80th percentile).
Center Line - Shows the average expected price based on historical outcomes in similar conditions.
Probability Label - Displays direction probability and average move. Example: "67% UP (+0.8%)" means 67% of similar past cases moved up, averaging 0.8% gain.
Fallback System:
When the exact 27-state match has insufficient historical data:
First fallback: Uses Z-Score plus Trend only (9 broader states, ignoring volume)
Second fallback: Uses Z-Score only (3 states)
When fallback is active, confidence automatically adjusts
Settings:
Projection Horizon - How many bars forward to analyze outcomes (5, 10, 15, or 20 bars, default 10)
Lookback Period - Historical data window in days (30-252, default 60)
Minimum Samples - Cases needed before using fallback (5-30, default 10)
Z-Score Threshold - Bucket boundary for LOW/MID/HIGH classification (1.0, 1.5, or 2.0 sigma)
Cloud Transparency - Adjust visibility (50-95%)
Colors - Customize bullish, bearish, and neutral cone colors
Confidence Levels:
HIGH - 30 or more similar historical cases found
MEDIUM - 15-29 similar cases
LOW - Fewer than 15 cases (more uncertainty)
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER:
The Calculated Projection is based on past patterns only. It is NOT a price prediction or financial advice. Similar market states in the past do not guarantee similar outcomes in the future. The probability shown is historical frequency, not a guarantee. Always combine with other analysis and never rely solely on projections for trading decisions.

The indicator includes over 20 pre-built alert conditions:
Price vs VWAP:
Price crosses above VWAP
Price crosses below VWAP
Band Touches:
Price touches plus or minus one sigma band
Price touches plus or minus two sigma band (extreme)
Price touches plus or minus three sigma band (very extreme)
Z-Score Extremes:
Z-Score crosses above plus two (overbought extreme)
Z-Score crosses below minus two (oversold extreme)
Momentum and Trend:
Momentum slowing
Momentum accelerating
Trend turns bullish/bearish/neutral
Volume:

CVD Direction:
Buyers take control
Sellers take control
High Probability Signals:

The Info Table - Your Trading Dashboard
The right side of your chart displays a compact table with up to twelve metrics.
Row-by-Row Breakdown:
Asset and Period - Shows what the indicator detected (US Stock, Crypto, Forex, etc.) and your selected anchor period. The detection happens automatically based on exchange data, so VWAP resets and calculations match your actual trading instrument.
Delta Percentage - How far current price sits from VWAP, expressed as a percentage. Positive means price trades above fair value. Negative means below. Large delta values (beyond 1-2%) often precede mean reversion moves. Day traders watch this for overextension.
Z-Score - Statistical deviation from VWAP measured in standard deviations. Unlike raw delta, Z-Score accounts for volatility. A 2% move in a volatile biotech stock differs from 2% in a stable utility. Z-Score normalizes this. Values beyond plus or minus two sigma occur only 5% of the time statistically.
Trend Direction - Whether VWAP itself is rising, falling, or flat. Rising VWAP means the volume-weighted average price is increasing, which indicates institutional accumulation. Falling VWAP suggests distribution. This differs from price trend since it weights by volume.
Momentum State - Is the trend accelerating or slowing down? This measures the rate of change in VWAP slope. When an uptrend shows slowing momentum, it often precedes reversal. Accelerating momentum in a downtrend can signal capitulation and potential bottom.
Relative Volume - Current bar volume compared to the 20-bar average, shown as percentage. Values above 150% indicate above-average activity. Spikes above 200-300% often mark institutional involvement. Low volume (below 80%) warns of potential fake moves.
MTF Bias - Four checkmarks or X marks showing whether price sits above or below Daily, Weekly, Monthly, and Quarterly VWAP. Four checkmarks means strong bullish alignment across all timeframes. Four X marks indicates bearish alignment. Mixed readings suggest consolidation or transition.
Band Probabilities - Historical statistics showing how often price touched each standard deviation band over your lookback period. This helps you understand if mean reversion or trend following works better for your specific instrument.
Session Status - Which global trading sessions are currently active (Asia, London, New York). Shows checkmarks for active sessions. Important for forex and crypto traders who need to know when major liquidity windows open and close.
Divergence State - Whether the indicator detects bullish or bearish divergence between price and cumulative volume delta. Bullish divergence occurs when price makes lower lows but buying pressure (CVD) makes higher lows, suggesting hidden accumulation.
Confidence Score - A weighted composite of all factors displayed as a progress bar and percentage. Combines MTF alignment, Z-Score, trend direction, volume delta, momentum, and relative volume into a single 0-100 score. Higher scores indicate stronger conviction setups.
Calculated Projection - When the Projection Cone is enabled, shows the historical probability of price direction and expected move. For example: "▲ 67% (+0.8%)" means in similar market states historically, price moved up 67% of the time with an average gain of 0.8%. The system analyzes 27 unique market states based on Z-Score, Trend, and Volume conditions.
Recommended Use Cases
Day Trading Stocks:
Use Session anchor with Band 1 visible. Watch for price returning to VWAP after morning move. Volume spikes near VWAP often mark institutional accumulation zones.
Swing Trading:
Use Weekly or Rolling 21D anchor. Enable MTF lines for Daily and Weekly levels. Trade pullbacks to these levels in direction of MTF bias.
Crypto and Forex:
Enable Session VWAPs. Use Rolling anchors to avoid artificial resets. Monitor session transitions for breakout opportunities.
Mean Reversion:
Focus on Z-Score reaching plus or minus two. Add Band 2 visibility. Combine with slowing momentum for highest probability reversals.
Trend Following:
Watch MTF bias alignment. Four checkmarks plus accelerating momentum plus high volume confirms trend continuation setups.
Projection Planning:
Enable the Calculated Projection to see what happened historically in similar market conditions. Use 5-10 bars for intraday setups, 15-20 bars for swing trade planning. Focus on high probability readings (above 60%) with HIGH confidence (30 or more samples). The cone shows the probable range of outcomes based on actual historical data. Combine with other factors like MTF alignment and volume for higher conviction setups.
Important Notes
The indicator does not repaint. MTF values use previous period's confirmed data.
Rolling VWAP works best on 15-minute timeframes and above due to bar lookback requirements.
Session VWAPs apply to global markets by default (forex, crypto, futures). Enable the all-assets option for stocks if desired.
Volume data for forex represents tick volume, not actual traded volume.
All alert conditions fire only on confirmed (closed) bars to prevent false signals.
The Calculated Projection updates each bar as market state changes. This is expected behavior. The projection shows probabilities based on similar past conditions, not a fixed prediction.
Q AND A
Q: Does this indicator repaint?
A: No. The main VWAP calculation uses standard TradingView VWAP methodology. Multi-timeframe values use previous period's confirmed data with appropriate lookahead settings. All alert signals require bar confirmation.
Q: Why does my Rolling VWAP look different on 1-minute versus 15-minute charts?
A: Rolling VWAP calculates across a fixed number of trading days. On very short timeframes, the bar lookback may hit TradingView limits. For best Rolling VWAP accuracy, use 15-minute or higher timeframes.
Q: Can I use this on any instrument?
A: Yes. The indicator automatically detects asset type and adjusts behavior. Stocks use standard market hours. Crypto uses 24/7 calculations. Forex uses tick volume. Everything adapts automatically.
Q: What does the Confidence Score actually measure?
A: The score combines six weighted factors: MTF alignment (25%), Z-Score position (20%), Trend direction (20%), CVD pressure (15%), Momentum state (10%), and Relative volume (10%). Higher scores indicate more factors aligned in one direction.
Q: Why are Session VWAPs not showing on my stock chart?
A: Session VWAPs apply to 24-hour markets by default (forex, crypto, futures). For stocks, enable the Use for All Assets option in Session VWAP settings.
Q: The Divergence labels appear delayed. Is this a bug?
A: Divergence detection requires pivot confirmation, which needs bars on both sides of the pivot point. The label appears at the actual pivot location (several bars back) once confirmed. This is intentional and prevents false signals.
Q: Can I change the band colors?
A: Yes. Each of the three bands has its own color input setting. You can customize Band 1, Band 2, and Band 3 colors to match your preferences. The defaults are Aqua, Fuchsia, and Purple. The main VWAP line color adapts dynamically based on slope direction or can be set to static blue.
Q: How do I set up alerts?
A: Right-click on the chart, select Add Alert, choose this indicator, and select your desired condition from the dropdown. All conditions include descriptive alert messages with relevant data.
Q: What is the Probability Engine lookback period?
A: This setting determines how many trading days the indicator analyzes to calculate band touch rates and mean reversion statistics. Default is 60 days (approximately 3 months). Longer periods provide more stable statistics but may miss recent behavior changes.
Q: Why do I see fewer labels than expected?
A: Signal labels (Volume, Momentum, Squeeze, Divergence) are limited to 5 most recent labels on the chart to keep it clean. When a new label appears, the oldest one is automatically removed. Additionally, momentum labels have several filters: check the slope multiplier setting (higher values require stronger trends) and the Only Reversal Signals option (when enabled, labels only appear for potential reversals, not trend confirmations).
Q: What is the Calculated Projection and how accurate is it?
A: The Calculated Projection analyzes what happened in past market conditions similar to the current state. It classifies each bar by Z-Score level, Trend direction, and Volume profile (27 unique states), then shows the historical probability of up vs down and the average move size. It is NOT a price prediction or guarantee. The probability shown is how often similar conditions led to up/down moves historically, not a future guarantee. Always use it as one input among many.
Q: Why does the Projection probability change?
A: The projection updates on each bar as market state changes. If Z-Score moves from LOW to MID, or trend shifts from UP to FLAT, the system looks up a different historical category. This is expected behavior. The projection shows what happened in similar past conditions to the current bar's state.
Q: The Projection shows LOW confidence. What does that mean?
A: Confidence levels indicate sample size: HIGH means 30 or more historical cases found, MEDIUM means 15-29 cases, LOW means fewer than 15 cases. When sample size is low, the system uses a fallback: first aggregating by Z-Score plus Trend only (ignoring volume), then by Z-Score only. LOW confidence means less statistical reliability, so weight other factors more heavily in your decision.
Q: Why does the cone sometimes show 50/50 probability?
A: A 50/50 reading means that in similar past market states, price moved up roughly half the time and down half the time. This indicates a neutral or balanced condition where historical patterns provide no directional edge. Consider waiting for a higher probability setup or using other analysis methods.

AR-Session-Orb-HTF High/LowThis indicator is built for intraday model execution around liquidity grabs, session timing, and higher-timeframe draw-on-liquidity. It maps out sessions, ICT killzones, Session opening ranges (including the US 09:30 cash open), a daily NY “TD Open” line (00:00 → NY close), and key highs/lows from higher timeframes directly onto any lower timeframe chart (down to 1 minute).
________________________________________
1. Sessions (Asia / London / New York)
• Highlights the 3 main sessions with colored boxes:
• Asia
• London
• New York
• Default session times are set in New York local time:
• Asia: 18:00–02:00
• London: 03:00–12:00
• New York: 08:00–17:00
• You can change these times in the settings.
• Each box automatically expands as the session progresses.
Why it matters: these windows show you where liquidity usually builds, where the day “hands off” from Asia → London → NY, and when expansion/displacement typically happens.
________________________________________
2. ICT Killzones
The script includes 4 configurable killzones (NY local by default):
• Asia late session: 20:00–00:00
• London killzone: 02:00–05:00
• New York AM: 07:00–10:00
• New York Midday: 10:00–12:00
For each killzone you can:
• toggle on/off
• adjust the time window
• pick colors
This makes it easy to see when price is trading inside a high-probability delivery period, so you can line it up with liquidity above/below the session or OR.
________________________________________
3. Opening Range Levels
The indicator captures the high and low of the first X minutes (default 15) of each important window and projects those levels as horizontal lines.
It does this for:
• Asia Open Range
• London Open Range
• New York Open Range (08:00)
• NY 09:30 Cash-Open Range
• (in the original idea: NY mid / second NY window)
Behavior:
• Asia OR → after the first X minutes of Asia, the high/low are projected across the rest of the trading day.
• London OR → taken from the London start, but extended only while London is active.
• NY OR (08:00) → taken from the start of the NY session and extended only during NY.
• NY 09:30 OR → this one is special. At exactly 09:30 (cash open) the script starts a second, independent OR for that day, using your chosen length (e.g. 15 minutes). When the window finishes, it freezes the 09:30 high and low and projects them horizontally all the way to the NY session end. You can style it separately (color, labels). This gives you a clean “cash-open dealing range” to watch for sweeps, fake-outs and continuations.
You can:
• choose the range length (1–60 minutes for 09:30, 1–30 for the others)
• show/hide each OR
• color each OR
• show labels such as “Asia OR High”, “Lon OR Low”, “NY 09:30 High”, etc.
• control line padding so labels don’t print on top of the candle
These ORs often become obvious liquidity pools, fail-break zones, or continuation triggers.
________________________________________
4. NY TD Open Line (Daily 00:00)
On every trading day the script also plots a “TD” structure for New York:
• at 00:00 NY time it draws a vertical dashed line to mark the day’s start
• it records that day’s open price
• it then projects a horizontal line from 00:00 → all the way to NY session close (default 17:00)
• the horizontal line is labeled e.g. “NY TD Open”
How to use it:
• see instantly where current price is vs the daily open
• combine with 09:30 OR to know if cash open is opening above/below the day’s open
• good for intraday bias (above = bullish day structure, below = bearish day structure)
• nice anchor when you go down to 1m/3m
You can toggle the TD feature on/off and change its colors.
________________________________________
5. Previous Week High / Low
• Plots last week’s high and low on any timeframe
• Drawn as dashed lines with padding (so they don’t run to infinity)
• Each level is labeled (default “PW High” / “PW Low”)
These are classic weekly liquidity magnets and very useful when London/NY is expanding into an old weekly extreme.
________________________________________
6. Monthly High / Low
The script plots both:
• Previous month high/low
• Current month high/low (live)
Defaults:
• previous month → dashed + purple
• current month → solid + blue
You can change:
• line colors
• label text & colors
• how far the line should extend (bars span)
This gives you higher-TF liquidity targets on your intraday chart without switching to M or W.
________________________________________
7. 4H High / Low (Intra-session Liquidity Map)
On timeframes up to 4H, the script also plots:
• previous 4H high/low
• current 4H high/low
Important design choice: they only live inside their own 4H window.
• the previous 4H range is shown only over the previous 4H time span
• the current 4H range is shown only over the current 4H candle
That means you don’t get messy, stretched 4H lines across the whole day — only where they actually apply. This is super useful for London/NY raids on 4H highs/lows.
________________________________________
8. Customization / Inputs
Almost everything is editable:
• session windows + colors
• killzone windows + colors
• opening-range length
• ON/OFF per OR (Asia, London, NY 08:00, NY 09:30)
• label text, size, bg color, text color
• HTF line length (weekly / monthly)
• TD 00:00 ON/OFF + colors
• line end padding so labels don’t sit on the right edge
The idea is to give you structure, not signals.
________________________________________
How to Use
1. Start from the monthly / weekly / previous week levels to see where price “wants” to go.
2. Drop into the active session box / killzone to know when to pay attention.
3. Trade around opening-range highs/lows — especially the NY 09:30 OR — and look for liquidity sweeps.
4. Check where price is relative to the NY TD Open (00:00) to confirm intraday bias.
5. Refine entries using the 4H highs/lows that fall inside that session.
Result: you get a top-down liquidity map + intraday timing tool, all on one chart.
________________________________________
Notes
• All times are interpreted in the chart/session timezone — keep your chart on NY session if you want the defaults to match the description.
• TradingView has drawing limits; on very low timeframes far back in history, old drawings may recycle.
• Because 09:30 and TD are drawn every day, it’s normal to see more labels the further right you scroll.

Week high / Week low (Mo–Fr)The indicator tracks the weekly high and low levels of the market starting from Monday 00:00 and updates them throughout the week until Friday. It draws horizontal lines across the chart representing:
Weekly High
Weekly Low
Each level also displays a label that can be positioned in different ways depending on user settings.
🧠 How it works step-by-step
1. Every Monday a new week starts
When a new week begins:
The script stores the current candle’s high as the initial weekHigh
And the current candle’s low as weekLow
Previous week's lines and labels are deleted
New horizontal lines are created and extended to the right
Labels (for high & low) are placed initially at the start of the week
2. During Monday–Friday
On every candle:
If a new higher price is reached → weekly high updates
If a new lower price is reached → weekly low updates
The horizontal line moves to the new value
A saved index remembers where that high/low was created
3. Label Position Control
The user can choose how labels should be anchored:
Mode Meaning
Update point Label stays where the high/low occurred
Right edge Label always moves to the current bar (right end of week)
Right offset Like Right edge but shifted further right by X bars
You can also customize:
label background color
label text color
label size
whether the label points up/down (above or below the line)
line color, style, and width
4. Weekend behavior
On Saturday, the script stops extending the lines, effectively freezing the weekly high and low for that completed week.
Summary
This indicator is useful for traders who want automatic weekly levels, visually clean chart structure, and customizable label placement. It tracks market structure weekly, keeps levels persistent across the chart, and lets you choose exactly how those levels appear.
If you want, I can also create:
✔ previous week high/low
✔ midline (50% of the range)
✔ alerts when price breaks the weekly high/low
✔ highlight liquidity sweeps
Dix$ons Tackle BoxDixsons Tackle Box — Multi-Tool Trend & Levels Suite (MA/EMA + VWAP + BB + Adaptive Trend Channels + Auto Fibs)
---
**Dixsons Tackle Box** is an all-in-one overlay for traders who want a clean chart with *stacked edge* instead of stacked indicators.
It combines:
* A **5-slot MA/EMA pack** with live slope % labels and MTF smoothing
* A **full VWAP engine** with event-based anchors, trend angle coloring, and VWAP bands
* **Bollinger Bands** with volatility-aware coloring and optional gradient background
* A **Short-Term & Long-Term Adaptive Trend Channel (ATC)** with automatic period detection, log-regression channels, and performance tables
* A **Dixson Auto Fibonacci suite**: ATR-based “rail” Fibs + Lookback Fibs off HH/LL, both driving a shared, fully customizable Fib bank
Everything is controlled logically by feature groups under the **“Tackle Box”** section, so you can quickly turn modules on/off and tune the tool to your style (scalp, intraday, swing, or position).
> **Important:** This is an analysis/visualization tool only. Nothing here is financial advice or an automatic trading system. Always test and manage risk yourself.
---
## 1. MA/EMA Pack — 5 Smart Averages with Slope %
**Group:** `Tackle Box` + per-slot groups `MA/EMA 1` … `MA/EMA 5`
**Main toggle:** `Enable MA's`
**Per-slot master row:** `_maRow1` … `_maRow5`
### What it does
This module gives you **five independent MA/EMA slots**, each with:
* Its own **type** (MA or EMA)
* **Length**, **color**, **line width**, and **plot style** (`Solid`, `Step`, or `Circles`)
* **Timeframe per slot** (MTF)
* Rich **label controls** (slope %, length/type text, timeframe text, etc.)
* **Label size** per slot (`tiny → huge`)
On top of that, each average has a **live slope % readout**, normalized by instrument tick size, so you can compare trend steepness across assets.
### Key features
* **Master slot row (1–5):**
In the `Tackle Box` group you have `_maRow1`–`_maRow5` toggles. These gate each slot globally, so you can quickly show/hide specific MAs without digging into each slot.
* **MTF Smoothed Mode:**
* `MTF Smoothed Mode` (on by default) makes higher-timeframe MAs **update only when the HTF bar closes (and on the last bar)**.
* That reduces the stair-stepping noise you often get when pulling HTF data onto an LTF chart, while still giving you accurate levels and a smooth, tradeable line.
* **Per-slot label text controls:**
Each MA group has toggles to control exactly what the label shows:
* `Show Label` – show/hide label entirely
* `Slope` – append slope % to the label
* `Len+Type` – show e.g. `50EMA` or `200MA`
* `TF` – show HTF name if the slot is on an MTF
* `'slope' text` – optionally include the word `slope` in the label
* **Slope % (angle) logic:**
Slope for each MA uses a normalized **“angle %” in **, based on the 1-bar change vs `syminfo.mintick`.
* Big positive values = strong uptrend
* Big negative values = strong downtrend
* Near zero = flat/neutral
This makes it easy to build rules like:
* “Only trade long if the **50EMA slope** is above +20% and price is above VWAP”
* “Take profit if slope on my faster MA collapses back toward 0.”
### Typical use
* Slot 1–2: **fast intraday EMAs** (e.g., 9 / 20 EMA)
* Slot 3–4: **structural EMAs/MAs** (e.g., 50 / 200)
* Slot 5: a **dedicated MTF trend filter** (e.g., 5-minute or 1-hour EMA on a 1-minute chart)

## 2. VWAP Engine + Bands — Anchor-Aware, Angle-Aware VWAP
**Group:** `Enable VWAP` + `------ VWAP Settings ------`, `Bands Settings`, `Color Settings`
### Core VWAP
* **Anchors:**
`Anchor Period` lets you choose where each VWAP reset starts:
* `Session` (day session VWAP, perfect for intraday)
* `Week`, `Month`, `Quarter`, `Year`, `Decade`, `Century`
* Corporate events: `Earnings`, `Dividends`, `Splits`
This lets you build VWAP logic around:
* **Intraday mean reversion** (Session VWAP + bands)
* **Swing anchor VWAPs** (Weekly/Monthly)
* **Event-based anchors** (earnings/dividend/split reaction)
* **Hide on DWM:**
`Hide VWAP on 1D or Above` lets you keep intraday VWAP from cluttering higher-TF charts.
* **Angle/Trend Detection:**
The VWAP engine computes a **regression slope** over each anchor segment and converts it to an **angle %**:
* `Angle Lookback (bars)` controls how many bars are used
* `Angle Trend Threshold (%)` sets the threshold where a slope is considered “trending”
With `Color VWAP by Trend` enabled:
* Uptrend > threshold → VWAP turns **trend up color** (e.g., lime)
* Downtrend < −threshold → VWAP turns **trend down color** (e.g., red)
* Inside threshold → VWAP uses a neutral color
You can also set separate **line widths** for neutral vs trend state and transparency to give a “Hull-style” visual feel.
* **VWAP Labels:**
You get a single, de-duplicated VWAP label on the last bar with:
* Optional **name** (`VWAP`)
* Optional **price** (`$xxx.xx`)
* Optional **angle %** and optional `"slope"` word
* Global **label size** for VWAP + bands
### VWAP Bands
* **Calc modes:**
`Bands Calculation Mode`:
* `Standard Deviation` – classic VWAP ± n * σ
* `Percentage` – bands as a fixed % of VWAP
* **Bands 1-3:**
Each band has:
* Visibility toggle, independent multiplier (`×`)
* Separate **upper/lower colors** per band
* Optional **fill** between upper/lower for each band
* Label toggles:
* `Show All Labels`
* `Show Band #X Label`
* `Band Labels: Show Names` (VWAP+1, VWAP-1, etc.)
* `Band Labels: Show Prices`
This lets you configure anything from a minimalist “just VWAP + 1 band” view to a full 3-band ladder.
### VWAP Highlight Fill
* **Premium/discount shading**:
Optional fill that shades:
* Region **above VWAP** when price is above (e.g., greenish)
* Region **below VWAP** when price is below (e.g., reddish)
This makes it extremely easy to see when price is trading at **premium vs discount** relative to the current anchor VWAP.
### Typical use
* Intraday scalpers: Session VWAP + 1–2 bands + highlight fill
* Swing traders: Weekly/Monthly VWAP + only the main line and label
* Event traders: Earnings-anchored VWAP, tracking post-earnings drift
---
## 3. Bollinger Bands — Volatility-Aware BB with Gradient Fill
**Group:** `Enable Bollinger Bands` + `------ Bollinger Band settings ------`
### What it adds
A clean Bollinger Band overlay designed to play nicely with the VWAP/MA stack:
* `Bollinger Bands Length` (default 20)
* `Bollinger Bands Multiplier` (default 2.0)
* `BB Basis Color` & **line width**
* Upper/lower bands colored based on **width change**:
* Expanding volatility → `BB Expanding Color`
* Contracting volatility → `BB Contracting Color`
You can also toggle:
* `Show Center Line MA Label` – prints something like `20ma` on the last bar.
* `Enable Gradient Background Fill` – draws a gradient between price and the bands:
* `Gradient Fill Up Color` for below-price fill
* `Gradient Fill Down Color` for above-price fill
### Why it’s unique here
Instead of just static bands, this implementation **flags volatility regimes** (expansion vs contraction) via color and optional gradient. That pairs nicely with ATR Fibs and VWAP:
* Use **BB contraction (squeeze)** + flat VWAP angle to anticipate breakouts.
* Use BB + VWAP bands to filter which “touches” are genuinely overextended.
---
## 4. Dixson Adaptive Trend Channel (ATC) — Short-Term & Long-Term Log Channels
**Master toggle:** `Enable Adaptive Trend Channel`
**Groups:** `------ Dixson ATC Settings ------`, `Short-Term Channel Settings`, `Long-Term Channel Settings`, `Short-Term Midline Settings`, `Long-Term Midline Settings`, `Channel Trend Background Fill Settings`, `Short-Term Table Settings`, `Long-Term Table Settings`
### Under the hood
ATC is a **log-scale regression channel engine** that automatically:
1. Scans a set of candidate periods.
* **Short-term:** 20 → 200 bars
* **Long-term:** 300 → 1200 bars
2. For each period, it computes:
* Log-price regression slope & intercept
* Standard deviation of residuals
* A Pearson-style R value (trend “strength”)
3. Picks the period with the **highest correlation (|R|)** and uses that as the **detected trend length**.
This yields a **data-driven channel** that adapts to whatever trend the market is actually respecting.
> For long-term stats, annualized return only makes sense on **daily/weekly** charts. On intraday charts, treat the “Annual Return” purely as informational.
### Short-Term Channel
Controls in `Short-Term Channel Settings` + `Short-Term Midline Settings`:
* `Show Short-Term Channel` – on/off
* `Deviation Multiplier (Short-Term)` – how wide the channel is (in standard deviations)
* **Upper/Lower colors**, line width, style (Solid/Dotted/Dashed), transparency
* `Line Extension Style` – Extend Right / Extend Both / Extend None / Extend Left
Optional **Short-Term Midline**:
* Toggle + color, style, width, transparency
* Tracks the regression line itself (center of the channel)
Background fill:
* `Enable ST Background Fill` with separate **ST Uptrend** / **ST Downtrend** colors
* Trend direction is inferred from regression slope sign
### Long-Term Channel
Mirrors the ST controls with its own group:
* `Show Long-Term Channel`
* `Deviation Multiplier (Long-Term)`
* Upper/Lower channel colors, thickness, style, transparency
* `Line Extension Style`
* Optional Long-Term midline + colors/styles
* Optional **background fill** with separate colors for up vs down
You can run **both channels at once**, giving a panel of:
* **Macro trend structure** (Long-Term ATC)
* **Current swing trend** (Short-Term ATC)
* MAs, VWAP, and Auto Fibs on top for entries/exits
### Trend Info Tables
Each channel has its own table options:
* `Show Detected Period` (bars used)
* `Show Trend Strength` – either:
* Descriptive text: “Extremely Weak” → “Ultra Strong”, or
* Raw Pearson R value if `Show Pearson R` is enabled
* `Show Annualized Return` (when timeframe is daily/weekly)
* Table position (`Top Left`, `Bottom Right`, etc.)
* Text size (`Small`, `Normal`, `Large`)
These tables quantify:
* Over what lookback the trend is being measured
* How “clean” that trend is
* What the approximate annualized performance of that trend has been
---
## 5. Dixson Auto Fibonacci Suite — ATR Fibs + Lookback Fibs + Shared Fib Bank
**Master toggle:** `Enable Auto Fibonacci`
**Groups:** `Dixson Auto Fibonacci`, `ATR Auto Fib`, `Previous ATR Fib`, `Lookback Auto Fib`, `Lookback Anchor Overrides`, `Fibonacci Levels`
You get **two separate engines** (ATR-based and Lookback-based) that both draw from the **same customizable Fib bank**, with optional log scaling.
---
### 5.1 Global Auto Fib Settings
* `Logarithmic Scale`
* When ON, Fib levels are interpolated in log-space (better for assets that move in percentages).
* When OFF, interpolation is linear in price.
This applies to **both** the ATR and Lookback engines.
---
### 5.2 ATR Auto Fib (Rail-Based, Supertrend-Driven)
**Groups:** `ATR Auto Fib`, `Previous ATR Fib`
The ATR engine builds **“rails”** that hug price without letting candles touch them, then projects Fib levels between these anchors.
#### How it works
1. Uses built-in `ta.supertrend` with:
* `ATR Period`
* `ATR Multiplier`
2. Builds dynamic **upper and lower rails** around price:
* Uses ATR to define a **proximity gap** (`Proximity (×ATR)`) so rails stay **just outside the wicks** (no-touch behavior).
* Smooths raw highs/lows slightly (RMA) to avoid spiky rails.
* Ensures the upper rail is always ≥ high+gap and lower rail ≤ low−gap.
3. The **direction** (uptrend/downtrend) is inferred from the Supertrend direction:
* On trend flips, the script:
* Captures the prior rail pair as a **“previous segment”**
* Starts a new rail segment in the new direction
4. From these rails, the script draws **directional Fib “ladders”**:
* For the **current ATR Fib**:
* The Fib is drawn from one anchor to the other depending on the trend sign.
* Rays are projected `Ray Length` bars to the right of `Current Offset`.
* For the **previous ATR Fib**:
* The last completed segment’s start/end rails are used as anchors
* Rays are projected using `Prev Fib Offset` and `Prev Fib Length`
#### Current ATR Fib controls
* `Enable ATR Fib` – toggles current ATR Fib bank
* `ATR Period`, `ATR Multiplier` – control the “engine” behind the rails and ST logic
* `Current Offset`, `Ray Length` – where and how far rays are drawn
* `Show Level Text`, `Show Price`, `Display % not ratio` – label style
* `Label Size (Current ATR Fib)` – for all current ATR Fib labels
Visual extras:
* `Plot Hi/Low Anchor Lines` – shows upper/lower rails
* `Plot ATR Trailing Stop` – shows clamped Supertrend as a continuous line
#### Previous ATR Fib controls
* `Enable Prev ATR Fib` – toggles previous segment ladders
* Independent `Prev Fib Offset`, `Prev Fib Length`
* Separate label controls:
* `Show Level Text (Prev)`
* `Show Price (Prev)`
* `Display % not ratio (Prev)`
* `Label Size (Previous ATR Fib)`
Use the **current ATR Fib** as your active trading “ladder” and the **previous ATR Fib** to track recently broken structure and potential retest zones.
---
### 5.3 Lookback Auto Fib — HH/LL-Driven Fib Bank, MTF + Manual Overrides
**Group:** `Lookback Auto Fib` + `Lookback Anchor Overrides`
This engine draws Fibs between **highest high** and **lowest low** within a given lookback window on a chosen timeframe.
#### How it works
1. Select higher timeframe:
* `Lookback Timeframe` (empty = chart timeframe)
2. Choose your range:
* `Lookback Bars` – number of bars on the selected TF to scan for extremes
3. Optionally allow look-ahead:
* `Look-ahead Bars (repainting)`
* `0` = no look-ahead (no forward info, no repainting)
* `>0` = uses `barmerge.lookahead_on` for forward-looking extremes (can repaint)
4. For that range, the script finds:
* Highest high + its bar offset
* Lowest low + its bar offset
5. Trend direction is determined by **which extreme is more recent**:
* Recent high → **down** direction (high → low)
* Recent low → **up** direction (low → high)
6. Manual direction overrides:
* `Force Uptrend` / `Force Downtrend` – override the auto decision
7. Manual anchor overrides:
* `Manual Anchor High (LB)`
* `Manual Anchor Low (LB)`
If both are set, those become the anchors and direction is deduced from which is higher.
8. The engine then draws a **directional Fib ladder**:
* Anchors between high/low based on direction
* Rays extend `Lookback Fib Length` bars from `Lookback Fib Offset`
#### Label controls
* `Show Level Text`, `Show Price`, `Display % not ratio`
* `Label Size (Lookback Fib)`
* Labels are prefixed with `LB` to distinguish them from ATR Fibs.
This engine is ideal for:
* **Swing structure mapping:** Drawing Fibs across the last major swing on the HTF.
* **Confluence:** Aligning Lookback Fibs with ATR Fibs, ATC channel boundaries, and VWAP bands.
---
### 5.4 Shared Fibonacci Levels — Fully Custom Fib Bank for Both Engines
**Group:** `Fibonacci Levels`
The ATR and Lookback engines **both** use the same Fib bank:
* **Ratios provided by default:**
* 0.000
* 0.146
* 0.236
* 0.382
* 0.500
* 0.618
* 0.650
* 0.707
* 0.786
* 0.886
* 1.000
* 1.130
* 1.272
* 1.618
* 2.000
Each ratio has its own:
* `Enable Level X.XXX`
* `Level X.XXX` (the actual ratio – fully editable)
* `Thickness X.XXX` (line width)
* `Style X.XXX` (Solid / Dashed / Dotted)
* `Color X.XXX` (line + label color)
Adjusting a level here **instantly updates both** ATR and Lookback ladders. This makes it very easy to:
* Run “standard” Fib sets for classic retracements
* Or define your **own Fib presets** (e.g., 0.25 / 0.5 / 0.75, or custom extension clusters)
---
## How to Use & Suggested Workflows
**Scalpers / 0DTE / Intraday:**
* Enable:
* MA/EMA pack (fast EMAs + one MTF slot)
* VWAP (Session anchor) + 1–2 VWAP bands + highlight fill
* ATR Auto Fib (current + previous)
* Optionally hide:
* Lookback Fibs
* Long-Term ATC (unless you want HTF bias on your intraday chart)
Use slope labels, VWAP angle %, and ATR Fib ladders to structure trades around pullbacks, mean reversion, and breakouts.
**Swing / Position traders:**
* Turn on:
* Long-Term ATC (with table)
* Short-Term ATC for swing structure
* Lookback Auto Fib on a higher timeframe (e.g., D on 4H chart)
* Keep VWAP anchored to Week or Month, and MA slots for key reference MAs.
Use ATC channels for **trend structure**, Lookback Fibs for **swing levels**, and long VWAPs for **value zones**.
---
## Final Notes & Disclaimer
* Works on **all symbols** and **all timeframes**, but some stats (like “Annualized Return”) are only meaningful on **daily/weekly** data.
* Some options (like Look-ahead mode for Lookback Fibs) can **repaint** on purpose. These are clearly labeled — use them only if you understand and want forward-looking behavior.
* This script does **not** place trades. It is a visual / analytical tool only.
* Nothing in this indicator or description is financial advice. Always do your own research, forward-test, and manage risk appropriately.
If you have **invite-only access** to **Dixsons Tackle Box**, you’re getting the full Dixson overlay stack in one place — designed to be the central “hub” for your chart, not just another line on it.
Momentum Structural AnalysisMomentum Structural Analysis (MSA‑style Oscillator)
This indicator implements a simple, MSA‑style momentum oscillator that measures how far price has moved above or below its own long‑term trend on the active timeframe, expressed in percentage terms. Instead of looking at raw price, it "oscillates" price around a timeframe‑appropriate simple moving average (SMA) and plots the percentage distance from that SMA as an orange line around a zero baseline. Zero means price is exactly at its structural trend; positive values mean price is extended above trend; negative values mean it is trading below trend.
The script automatically selects the SMA length based on the chart timeframe:
On daily charts it uses the configurable Daily SMA Length (default 252 trading days, roughly 1 year).
On weekly charts it uses Weekly SMA Length (default 208 weeks).
On monthly charts it uses Monthly SMA Length (default 120 months).
This approach is inspired by the ideas behind Momentum Structural Analysis (MSA), which studies where a market trades relative to long‑term moving averages and then treats the momentum line (the oscillator) as the primary object of analysis. The goal is to highlight structural overbought/oversold conditions and regime changes that are often clearer on momentum than on the raw price chart.
--------------------------------------------------
What the script computes and how it works
For each bar, the indicator:
Chooses an SMA length based on the current timeframe (daily/weekly/monthly).
Calculates the SMA of the close.
Computes the percentage distance:
\text{Diff %} = \frac{\text{Close} - \text{SMA}}{\text{SMA}} \times 100
Plots this Diff % as an orange line, with a dashed horizontal zero line as the base.
This produces a momentum oscillator that oscillates around zero and reflects the "structural" position of price versus its own long‑term mean.
--------------------------------------------------
How to use it on index charts (e.g., NIFTY50)
On indices like NIFTY50, use the indicator to see how stretched the index is versus its structural trend.
Typical uses:
Identify extremes: a). Historically high positive readings can signal euphoric, late‑stage conditions where risk is elevated. b). Deep negative readings can highlight panic/capitulation zones where downside may be exhausted.
Draw structural levels: a). Mark horizontal bands on the oscillator where past turns have occurred (e.g., +15%, −10%, etc. specific to NIFTY50). b). Watch how price behaves when the oscillator revisits these zones: repeated rejections can validate them as structural bounds; clean breaks can indicate a change of regime.
This is not a buy/sell signal generator by itself; it is a framework to understand where the index sits within its long‑term momentum structure and to support risk‑management decisions.
--------------------------------------------------
How to use it on ratio charts
Apply the same indicator to ratio symbols such as NIFTY50/GOLD, BANKNIFTY/NIFTY50, sector vs index, or any spread you plot as a ratio.
On a ratio chart:
The oscillator now measures relative momentum: how far that ratio is above or below its own long‑term mean.
High positive readings = strong outperformance of the numerator vs the denominator (e.g., equities strongly outperforming gold).
Deep negative readings = strong underperformance (e.g., equities structurally lagging gold).
This is very much in the spirit of MSA’s work on spreads between asset classes: it helps visualize major rotations (equities → gold, financials → commodities, etc.) and whether a relative‑performance trend is stretched, reverting, or breaking into a new phase.
--------------------------------------------------
Using multiple timeframes for better decisions
You can stack information across timeframes to get a more robust view:
Monthly : a). Use monthly charts to see secular/structural phases. b). Long multi‑year stretches above or below zero, and large bases or trendline breaks on the monthly oscillator, can mark major bull or bear cycles and big rotations between asset classes.
Weekly : a). Use weekly charts for the primary trend. b). Weekly structures (multi‑month highs/lows, channels, or trendlines on the oscillator) are useful for medium‑term positioning and for confirming or rejecting signals seen on the monthly view.
Daily : a). Use daily charts mainly for timing entries/exits once the higher‑timeframe direction is clear. b). Short‑term extremes on the daily oscillator that align with the larger weekly/monthly structure can offer better‑timed opportunities, while signals that contradict higher‑timeframe momentum are more likely to be noise.

Use Case: Trade lower timeframes while respecting higher timeframe structure. Watch for HTF candle closes to confirm directional bias.
FVG & VI Detection
Fair Value Gaps and Volume Imbalances highlight inefficiencies that price often revisits:
1. **Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)**: Detected when HTF candle wicks don't overlap between 3 consecutive candles
- Bullish FVG: Gap between candle 1 high and candle 3 low (green box by default)
- Bearish FVG: Gap between candle 1 low and candle 3 high (red box by default)
2. **Volume Imbalances (VIs)**: Similar detection but focuses on body gaps
- Bullish VI: Gap between candle 1 close and candle 3 open
- Bearish VI: Gap between candle 1 open and candle 3 close
3. Enable FVG/VI detection per HTF slot individually
4. Customize colors and transparency for each imbalance type
5. Boxes appear on chart at formation and remain visible as retracement targets
**Use Case**: Identify high-probability retracement zones. Price often returns to fill FVGs and VIs before continuing the trend. Use as entry zones or profit targets.

Happy Trading! 📈
FPT - DCA ModelFPT - DCA Model is a simple but powerful tool to backtest a weekly “buy the dip” DCA plan with dynamic position sizing and partial profit-taking.
🔹 Core Idea
- Invest a fixed amount every week (on Friday closes)
- Buy more aggressively when price trades at a discount from its 52-week high
- Take partial profits when price stretches too far above the daily EMA50
- Track the performance of your DCA plan vs a simple buy-and-hold from the same start date
⚙ How it works
1. Weekly DCA (on Daily timeframe)
- On each Friday after the Start Date:
- Add the “Weekly contribution” to the cash pool.
- If the close is below the “Discount from 52W high” level:
→ FULL DCA: use the full weekly contribution + an extra booster from your stash (up to “Max extra stash used on dip”).
→ Marked on the chart with a small green triangle under the bar.
- Otherwise:
→ HALF DCA: invest only 50% of the weekly contribution and keep the other 50% as stash (uninvested cash).
→ Marked with a small blue triangle under the bar.
2. 52-Week High Discount Logic
- The script computes the 52-week high as the highest daily high of the last 252 trading days.
- The “discount level” is: 52W high × (1 – Discount%).
- When price is at or below this level, dips are treated as buying opportunities and the model allocates more.
3. Selling Logic (Partial Take Profit)
- When the close is above the daily EMA50 by the selected percentage:
→ Sell the given “Sell portion of qty (%)” of your current holdings.
→ Marked with a small red triangle above the bar.
- This behaves like a gradual profit-taking system: if price stays extended above EMA50, multiple partial sells can occur over time.
📊 Panel (top-right)
The panel summarizes the state of your DCA plan:
- Weeks: number of DCA weeks since Start Date
- Total deposit: total money contributed (sum of all weekly contributions)
- Shares qty: total number of shares accumulated
- Avg price: volume-weighted average entry price
- Shares value: current market value of all shares (qty × close)
- Cash: uninvested cash (including saved stash)

Minervini VCP Pattern -Indian ContextThis script implements Mark Minervini's Trend Template and VCP (Volatility Contraction Pattern) pattern, specifically adapted for Indian stock markets (NSE). It helps identify stocks that are in strong uptrends and ready to break out.
Core Concepts Explained
1. What is the Minervini Trend Template?
Mark Minervini's method identifies stocks in Stage 2 uptrends - the sweet spot where institutional money is accumulating and stocks show the strongest momentum. Think of it as finding stocks that are "leaders" rather than "laggards."
2. What is VCP (Volatility Contraction Pattern)?
A VCP occurs when:
Stock price consolidates (moves sideways) after an uptrend
Price swings get tighter and tighter (like a coiled spring)
Volume dries up (fewer people trading)
Then it breaks out with force.
You can customize the strategy settings without editing code.
Key Settings:
Minimum Price (₹50): Filters out penny stocks that are too volatile
Min Distance from 52W Low (30%): Stock should be at least 30% above its yearly low
Max Distance from 52W High (25%): Stock should be within 25% of its yearly high (showing strength)
Moving Average Periods: 10, 50, 150, 200 days (industry standard)
Minimum Volume (100,000 shares): Ensures the stock is liquid enough to trade
Indian Market Adaptation: The default values (₹50 minimum, volume thresholds) are adjusted for NSE stocks, which behave differently than US markets.
The script pulls weekly chart data even when you're viewing daily charts.
Why it matters: Weekly trends are more reliable than daily noise. Professional traders use weekly charts to confirm the bigger picture.
What are Moving Averages (MAs)?
Simple averages of closing prices over X days
They smooth out price action to show trends
Think of them as the "average cost" of buyers over different time periods
The 4 Key MAs:
10 MA (Fast): Very short-term trend
50 MA: Short to medium-term trend
150 MA: Medium to long-term trend
200 MA: Long-term trend (the "grandfather" of all MAs)
Why Weekly MAs?
The script also calculates 10 and 50 MAs on weekly data for additional confirmation of the bigger trend.
The script Finds the highest and lowest prices over the past 52 weeks (1 year).
Why it matters:
Stocks near 52-week highs are showing strength (institutions buying)
Stocks far from 52-week lows have "room to run" upward
This is a psychological level that influences trader behaviour.
What is Volume here ?
The number of shares traded each day
High volume = many traders interested (conviction)
Low volume = lack of interest (weakness or consolidation)
Volume in VCP:
During consolidation (sideways movement), volume should dry up - this shows sellers are exhausted and buyers are holding. When volume spikes on a breakout, it confirms the move.
NSE Context: Indian stocks often have different volume patterns than US stocks, so the 50-day average is used as a baseline.
Relative Strength vs Nifty:
Example:
If your stock is up 20% and Nifty is up 10%, your stock has strong RS
If your stock is up 5% and Nifty is up 15%, your stock has weak RS (avoid it!)
Why it matters: The best performing stocks almost always have strong relative strength before major moves.
The 13 Minervini Conditions:-
Condition 1: Price > 50/150/200 MA
Meaning: Current price must be above ALL three major moving averages.
Why: This confirms the stock is in a clear uptrend. If price is below these MAs, the stock is weak or in a downtrend.
Condition 2: MA 50 > 150 > 200
Meaning: The moving averages themselves must be in proper order.
Analogy: Think of this like layers in a cake - short-term on top, long-term at bottom. If they're tangled, the trend is unclear.
Condition 3: 200 MA Rising (1 Month)
Meaning: The 200 MA today must be higher than it was 20 days ago.
Why: This confirms the long-term trend is UP, not flat or down. The means "20 bars ago."
Condition 4: 50 MA Rising
Meaning: The 50 MA today must be higher than 5 days ago.
Why: Confirms short-term momentum is accelerating upward.
Condition 5: Within 25% of 52-Week High
Meaning: Current price should be within 25% of its 1-year high.
Example:
52-week high = ₹1000
Current price must be above ₹750 (within 25%)
Why: Strong stocks stay near their highs. Weak stocks fall far from highs.
Condition 6: 30%+ Above 52-Week Low (OPTIONAL)
Meaning: Stock should be at least 30% above its yearly low.
Note: The script marks this as "SECONDARY - Optional" because the other conditions are more important. However, it's still a good confirmation.
Condition 7: Price > 10 MA
Meaning: Very short-term strength - price above the 10-day moving average.
Why: Ensures the stock hasn't just rolled over in the immediate term.
Condition 8: Price >= ₹50
Meaning: Filters out stocks below ₹50.
Why: In Indian markets, stocks below ₹50 tend to be penny stocks with poor liquidity and higher manipulation risk.
Condition 9: Weekly Uptrend
Meaning: On the weekly chart, price must be above both weekly MAs, and they must be properly aligned.
Why: Confirms the bigger picture trend, not just daily fluctuations.
Condition 10: 150 MA Rising
Meaning: The 150 MA is trending upward over the past 10 days.
Why: Another confirmation of medium-term trend health.
Condition 11: Sufficient Volume
Meaning: Average volume must exceed 100,000 shares (or your custom setting).
Why: Ensures you can actually buy/sell the stock without moving the price too much (liquidity).
Condition 12: RS vs Nifty Strong
Meaning: The stock's relative strength vs Nifty must be improving.
Why: You want stocks that are outperforming the market, not underperforming.
Condition 13: Nifty in Uptrend
Meaning: The Nifty 50 index itself must be above its 50 MA.
Why: "A rising tide lifts all boats." It's easier to make money in individual stocks when the overall market is bullish.
VCP Requirements:
Volatility Contracting: Price swings getting tighter (coiling spring)
Volume Drying Up: Fewer shares trading + trending lower
The Setup: When volatility contracts and volume dries up WHILE all 13 trend conditions are met, you have a VCP setup ready to explode.
What You See on Chart:
Colored Lines: 10 MA (green), 50 MA (blue), 150 MA (orange), 200 MA (red)
Blue Background: Trend template conditions met (watch zone)
Green Background: Full VCP setup detected (buy zone)
↟ Symbol Below Price: New VCP buy signal just triggered
Information Table:
What it does: Creates a checklist table on your chart showing the status of all conditions.
Table Structure:
Column 1: Condition name
Column 2: Status (✓ green = met, ✗ red = not met)
Final Row: Shows "BUY" (green) or "WAIT" (red) based on full VCP setup status.
Dos:
Example:
Account size: ₹5,00,000
Risk per trade: 1% = ₹5,000
Entry: ₹1000
Stop loss: ₹920 (8% below)
Distance to stop: ₹80
Shares to buy: ₹5,000 / ₹80 = 62 shares
Exit Strategy:
Sell 1/3 at +20% profit
Sell another 1/3 at +40% profit
Let the final 1/3 run with a trailing stop
Always exit if price closes below 10 MA on heavy volume
What This Script Does NOT Do:
Guarantee profits - No strategy works 100% of the time
Account for news events - Earnings, regulatory changes, etc.
Consider fundamentals - Company financials, debt, management quality
Adapt to market crashes - Works best in bull markets
Best Market Conditions:
✅ Nifty in uptrend (above 50 MA)
✅ Market breadth positive (more stocks advancing)
✅ Sector rotation happening
❌ Avoid in bear markets or high volatility periods

Madstrat Strategy - Dual TF# Madstrat Strategy - Dual TF: Complete User Guide
## Overview
The Madstrat Strategy indicator is a comprehensive forex trading system that identifies high-probability trade setups based on a day-counting methodology combined with multi-timeframe EMA alignment analysis. It generates two primary signal types:
1. **Day 3 Signals** - Based on the GSD/RSD (Green Setup Day/Red Setup Day) counting system
2. **Pure Price Action (PA) Signals** - Based on EMA alignment across multiple timeframes with EQ rejection
The indicator operates on **two timeframe combinations simultaneously**:
- **15-minute / 1-hour** combo
- **30-minute / 2-hour** combo
---
## Section 1: Timeframe Signals
### Settings
| Input | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| Show 15m/1hr Signals | ✓ Enabled | Displays signals from the 15-minute LTF with 1-hour HTF confirmation |
| Show 30m/2hr Signals | ✓ Enabled | Displays signals from the 30-minute LTF with 2-hour HTF confirmation |
| Trade Levels Source | Most Recent | Determines which combo draws SL/TP levels |
### How It Works
Each timeframe combination operates independently with its own:
- Signal spacing rules (4 bars for 15m, 2 bars for 30m = both equal ~1 hour)
- Daily signal limits (3 Day 3 signals + 3 Pure PA signals per combo per day)
- EMA alignment checks on both LTF and HTF
**Trade Levels Source Options:**
- **15m/1hr** - Only 15m/1hr signals draw trade levels
- **30m/2hr** - Only 30m/2hr signals draw trade levels
- **Most Recent** - Whichever signal fires most recently draws levels (15m/1hr takes priority if both fire simultaneously)
---
## Section 2: Signal Colors
Customize the appearance of each signal type for each timeframe combination:
### 15m/1hr Combo
| Signal Type | Default Color |
|-------------|---------------|
| Day 3 Buy | Blue |
| Day 3 Sell | Red |
| Pure PA Buy | Aqua |
| Pure PA Sell | Fuchsia |
### 30m/2hr Combo
| Signal Type | Default Color |
|-------------|---------------|
| Day 3 Buy | Teal |
| Day 3 Sell | Orange |
| Pure PA Buy | Lime |
| Pure PA Sell | Maroon |
---
## Section 3: Enhanced FBR Rules
### What is FBR?
**FBR (Failed Breakout Retest)** occurs when price breaks below the previous week's low (or above the previous week's high) but fails to close outside the range, closing back inside instead. This signals a potential reversal and resets the day count to "Day 1" of a new setup sequence.
### Settings
| Input | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| Enable Enhanced FBR Rule | ✓ Enabled | Prevents FBR detection after a clean breakout |
| Show Clean Breakout Labels | ✓ Enabled | Displays labels when clean breakouts occur |
| Bull Breakout Label Color | Blue (25% transparent) | Background color for bullish breakout labels |
| Bear Breakout Label Color | Red (25% transparent) | Background color for bearish breakout labels |
### How Enhanced FBR Works
1. **Clean Breakout Detection**: A clean breakout occurs when price breaks AND closes outside the previous week's range
2. **FBR Blocking**: Once a clean breakout occurs in a week, FBR detection is disabled for the remainder of that week
3. **Weekly Reset**: Both clean breakout and FBR flags reset at the start of each new trading week (Sunday rollover)
### Label Types
- **"CLEAN BULL BO"** - Price broke above previous week high and closed above it
- **"CLEAN BEAR BO"** - Price broke below previous week low and closed below it
- **"FBR Day 1"** - Failed breakout retest detected, count reset to Day 1
---
## Section 4: Real-Time Day Labels
### Purpose
The real-time label shows a **live projection** of what today's day classification will be, updating throughout the trading session as price action develops.
### Settings
| Input | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| Enable Real-Time Day Labels | ✓ Enabled | Shows dynamic label that updates during trading |
| Real-Time Label Position | Right | Position of label relative to current candle |
| Real-Time Label Background | Yellow (20% transparent) | Background color |
| Real-Time Label Text | White | Text color |
### Label Text Meanings
| Label | Meaning |
|-------|---------|
| LIVE: GSD Day X | Projected Green Setup Day (after 2+ red days) |
| LIVE: GD Day X | Projected Green Day (continuing green trend) |
| LIVE: RSD Day X | Projected Red Setup Day (after 2+ green days) |
| LIVE: RD Day X | Projected Red Day (continuing red trend) |
| LIVE: INSIDE DAY | Price range is entirely within previous day's range |
| LIVE: FBR - GSD Day 1 | Bullish failed breakout retest detected |
| LIVE: FBR - RSD Day 1 | Bearish failed breakout retest detected |
| LIVE: ... CLEAN BULL BO | Clean bullish breakout detected |
| LIVE: ... CLEAN BEAR BO | Clean bearish breakout detected |

## Section 5: Daily Session Definition
### Instrument Presets
| Preset | Sunday Open | Friday Close | Rollover | Use Case |
|--------|-------------|--------------|----------|----------|
| Forex (FX Pairs) | 17:05 ET | 16:59 ET | 17:00 ET | EUR/USD, GBP/USD, etc. |
| Metals (XAU/XAG) | 18:05 ET | 16:59 ET | 17:00 ET | Gold, Silver |
| Custom | User-defined | User-defined | User-defined | Other instruments |
### Why This Matters
The indicator uses **OANDA-style daily rollover** (5 PM Eastern) rather than UTC midnight. This ensures:
- Accurate day counting for forex markets
- Correct GSD/RSD classification
- Proper weekly level calculations
### Session Break Line
| Input | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| Show Session Break Line | ✓ Enabled | Draws vertical line at daily rollover |
| Session Break Line Color | Black | Line color |
| Width | 2 | Line thickness (1-5) |
| Style | Solid | Solid, dashed, or dotted |
---
## Section 6: Day Labels (GSD/RSD System)
### The Core Day Counting Methodology
This is the foundation of the Madstrat Strategy:
1. **Green Day (GD)**: Daily candle closes higher than it opened
2. **Red Day (RD)**: Daily candle closes lower than it opened
3. **Green Setup Day (GSD)**: A green day that follows 2 or more consecutive red days
4. **Red Setup Day (RSD)**: A red day that follows 2 or more consecutive green days
### The Day 3 Signal
**Day 3** is when the setup is "mature" and ready for a trade:
- **GSD Day 3**: Third consecutive green day after a red sequence of 2+ days
- **RSD Day 3**: Third consecutive red day after a green sequence of 2+ days
### Settings
| Input | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| Max Historical Labels | 60 | Number of day labels to retain on chart |
| Show Day of Week Labels | ✓ Enabled | Shows M O N, T U E, etc. |
| Label Position | Top | Top or bottom of chart |
| Label Hour | 6 | Hour (0-23) when day labels appear |
| GSD/GD Label Background | Blue (25% transparent) | Green day label color |
| RSD/RD Label Background | Red (25% transparent) | Red day label color |
| Inside Day Label Background | Gray (25% transparent) | Inside day label color |
### Important Notes
- **Inside Days** do not increment the count - they are neutral
- **FBR events** reset the count to Day 1 and establish a new trend direction
- **Clean Breakouts** also reset to Day 1 but block further FBR detection that week
---
## Section 7: Daily Levels
Displays the previous day's key price levels:
### Available Levels
| Level | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| Previous Day's High (PDH) | ✓ Enabled, Blue | Highest price of previous session |
| Previous Day's Low (PDL) | ✓ Enabled, Green | Lowest price of previous session |
| Previous Day's EQ | ✓ Enabled, Black | Equilibrium (midpoint of PDH/PDL) |
| 75% Level | ✗ Disabled | 75% of previous day's range |
| 25% Level | ✗ Disabled | 25% of previous day's range |
### EQ Rejection (Critical for Signals)
The **EQ (Equilibrium)** level is crucial for signal generation:
- **Bullish EQ Rejection**: Price wicks down to touch EQ, then closes above it
- **Bearish EQ Rejection**: Price wicks up to touch EQ, then closes below it
The indicator tracks these rejections throughout the day and uses them as a key filter for both Day 3 and Pure PA signals.

### EMA Alignment Requirement
For signals to fire, the EMAs must be properly "stacked":
**Bullish Alignment:**
```
Price > 9 EMA > 18 EMA > 50 EMA
```
**Bearish Alignment:**
```
Price < 9 EMA < 18 EMA < 50 EMA
```
This alignment must be present on **both** the LTF (15m or 30m) **and** the HTF (1hr or 2hr) for a signal to generate.
---
## Section 11: Signal Filters
### EQ Rejection Recency
| Input | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| EQ Rejection Recency (bars) | 4 | EQ rejection must occur within this many bars |
On a 15-minute chart, 4 bars = 1 hour. This ensures the EQ rejection is "fresh" and relevant.
### Session Filter
| Input | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| Enable Session Filter | ✗ Disabled | Only allow signals during selected sessions |
| Allow Sydney Session Signals | ✓ Enabled | (Only applies if filter enabled) |

## Section 12: Signal Types Explained
### Day 3 Signals (Primary)
Day 3 signals come in two forms:
#### Day 3 Detected (Live)
Fires when the **current day is projected** to become Day 3 based on real-time price action. This is an early signal that may change if the daily candle reverses before close.
#### Day 3 Confirmed
Fires when Day 3 has been **officially confirmed** by the previous day's close. This is a more reliable signal as the day count is locked in.
**Requirements for Day 3 Buy:**
1. GSD Count = 3 (confirmed) OR Projected GSD Count = 3 (live)
2. Not an inside day (current or previous)
3. Recent bullish EQ rejection (within recency bars)
4. Bullish EMA alignment on LTF
5. Bullish EMA alignment on HTF
6. Adequate candle body (not all wick)
7. ADX above threshold (if enabled)
8. Within allowed session (if filter enabled)
9. Signal spacing requirement met
10. Less than 3 Day 3 signals already today for this combo
**Day 3 Sell** - Same requirements but bearish (RSD Count = 3, bearish alignment, bearish EQ rejection)
### Pure PA Signals (Secondary)
Pure PA signals also come in two forms:
#### Pure PA Detected (LTF Only)
Fires when the **lower timeframe conditions** are met but HTF confirmation is still pending. This is an early warning that a full signal may be imminent.
#### Pure PA Confirmed (LTF + HTF)
Fires when **both LTF and HTF** conditions are aligned. This is the full confirmation signal.
**Requirements for Pure PA Buy:**
1. Recent bullish EQ rejection
2. Bullish EMA alignment on LTF (Price > 9 > 18 > 50)
3. Bullish EMA alignment on HTF (Price > 9 > 18 > 50)
4. Adequate candle body ratio (≥30%)
5. ADX above threshold on LTF
6. Not currently an inside day
7. Signal spacing requirement met
8. Less than 3 Pure PA signals already today for this combo
9. Within allowed session (if filter enabled)
**Pure PA Sell** - Same requirements but bearish
---
## Section 13: Trade Levels
When a signal fires, the indicator can draw:
| Level | Style | Description |
|-------|-------|-------------|
| Stop Loss (SL) | Red dashed | Entry price ± (ATR × 1.5) |
| Take Profit 1 | Green dashed | 1:1 Risk/Reward |
| Take Profit 2 | Green dotted | 2:1 Risk/Reward |
| Take Profit 3 | Green dotted | 3:1 Risk/Reward |
These levels use a 14-period ATR for the stop loss calculation.

## Quick Start Guide
### Recommended Setup for Forex
1. **Timeframe**: Apply indicator to a 15-minute chart
2. **Instrument Preset**: Select "Forex (FX Pairs)"
3. **Enable both** 15m/1hr and 30m/2hr signals initially
4. **Trade Levels Source**: "Most Recent"
5. **ADX Filter**: Enabled with threshold 20
6. **Alerts**: Enable "D3 Confirmed" and "PA Confirmed" for reliable signals
### Reading Signals
1. Look for **Day 3 signals** (triangles) as primary entries
2. Use **Pure PA signals** (diamonds) as supplementary entries
3. Check the debug table to understand why signals did/didn't fire
4. Reference the real-time day label to anticipate upcoming Day 3 opportunities
### Alert Strategy
**For active monitoring:**
- Enable "Detected" alerts as early warnings
- Manually verify conditions before entry
**For set-and-forget:**
- Enable only "Confirmed" alerts
- Trust the full confirmation system
---
## Troubleshooting
### No Signals Appearing?
Check the debug table for:
1. **EQ Rejection Recent** - Is there a recent EQ rejection?
2. **LTF/HTF Positioning** - Are EMAs properly aligned?
3. **GSD/RSD Count** - Is it actually Day 3?
4. **Currently Inside?** - Inside days block signals
5. **Signal Spacing OK** - Has enough time passed since last signal?
6. **ADX value** - Is it above the threshold?
### Day Labels Not Matching Expected Count?
- Verify **Instrument Preset** matches your trading instrument
- Check if an **FBR** or **Clean Breakout** reset the count
- **Inside days** don't increment the count
- Week resets occur at **Sunday 5 PM ET** for forex
### Alerts Not Firing?
1. Ensure **Enable Dynamic Alerts** is checked
2. Verify the specific alert type is enabled (D3 Detected, D3 Confirmed, etc.)
3. Check that the alert condition is properly set up in TradingView
4. Confirm signal filters (session, ADX) aren't blocking the signal
### Understanding Detected vs Confirmed
| Scenario | Detected Alert | Confirmed Alert |
|----------|----------------|-----------------|
| Current day projected to be Day 3, candle still open | ✓ Fires | ✗ Won't fire |
| Previous day closed as Day 3, conditions met today | ✓ May fire | ✓ Fires |
| LTF aligned, HTF not yet aligned | ✓ PA Detected fires | ✗ PA Confirmed won't fire |
| Both LTF and HTF aligned | ✓ May fire | ✓ PA Confirmed fires |

AbundanceThis tool is purpose-built for the Indian market landscape.
Tailored for dedicated long-term market participants, this indicator assists with investment decisions in both shares and ETFs. The script harnesses a blend of technical elements—Super Trend, RSI, multiple EMAs, and their dynamic relationships (for example, a 50 EMA positioned above 200 EMA indicates bullish momentum).
Through actionable notifications and buy cues on daily charts, the indicator supports anyone aiming to build a resilient portfolio. The indicator caters both high risk and risk averse investors.
Every mechanism is intended to deliver an actionable perspective, ensuring a comprehensive approach for those seeking effective capital growth.
Designed specifically for the daily timeframe , this indicator places buy signals as color-coded arrows exclusively on daily candles.
The tool functions as an all-inclusive solution for both stock and ETF investors, applying tailored accumulation logic to each asset category.
Some context of the Indicator used and what they imply:
• 50 EMA (Daily) – Measures intermediate trends
• 200 EMA (Daily) – Gauges long-term direction
• Daily timeframe – Identifies short-term movement
• Weekly timeframe – Assesses intermediate perspective
• Monthly timeframe – Reveals long-term context
ETF Module
ETF Selection Logic: The script implements explicit screening for ETFs, allowing users to operate with greater nuance through four unique accumulation intensity levels.
• Purple Arrow: Signals mild accumulation opportunities for aggressive dip-buyers—triggered when the 50 EMA is above the 200 EMA (i.e., uptrend), daily RSI drops below 40, the ETF price closes between the two EMAs, and weekly RSI remains above 50. If weekly RSI fails this threshold, signals are withheld to maintain trend integrity.
• Green Arrow: Indicates moderate accumulation, appearing in downtrends (200 EMA above 50 EMA) when daily RSI is in the oversold area and the price dips below 200 EMA.
• Blue Arrow: Represents strong accumulation. Both daily and weekly RSIs fall below 40 and the script’s close is under 200 EMA. Optimized for patient investors looking to accumulate during medium-term weakness.
• Red Arrow: Marks rare, very strong accumulation zones. RSIs across daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes must all read oversold with the price below 200 EMA, signifying potential long-term undervaluation but also substantial weakness. Patience is vital, as recovery may require extended periods.
Stock Module
Ideal for application on stocks within the Nifty 200—a universe proven through liquidity and market record. Stock accumulation signals come in two calibrated levels:
• Level 1 – Purple Arrow (early, mild accumulation): Suited for investors who have missed prior reversal zones or want additional entries in ongoing uptrends. Requires weekly and monthly RSI values above 50—i.e., no medium or long-term weakness. Accumulation signals occur when the stock trades below its 50 EMA but above its 200 EMA (with 50 EMA above 200 EMA indicating a healthy uptrend), and ADX reads below 22 (confirming the decline is not part of an accelerating downtrend).
• Level 2 – High conviction, Potential Reversal: Designed for risk-averse users, this level targets stocks that have corrected significantly and approach the 200 EMA on daily charts. Accumulation is triggered only when short-term downtrends reverse (Super Trend indicator shifts from red to green). Orange upward triangles serve as a preparatory signal for anticipated reversals, while green upward triangles mark confirmed buy events. If Super Trend returns to red after an alert but before a buy, the sequence is invalidated, limiting false signals.
All signals aim to provide precise market timing without exposing conservative investors to unnecessary risk.
Arrow colors are visually summarized on the right panel for constant reference for both ETFs and Stocks.
MAHI Indicator v9.5 - Smart Momentum HUD + IntradayMAHI Indicator v9.5 — Smart Momentum HUD (Multi-Framework + Intraday Engine)
A Complete Momentum, Trend, and Setup Framework for Swing, Position & Intraday Traders
MAHI v9.5 is the most advanced version yet — a highly optimized, visual, multi-framework trading system that blends momentum, trend alignment, adaptive setup detection, and now Auto-Intraday Mode for short-term traders.
This indicator acts like a Heads-Up Display (HUD) on your chart: it shows trend strength, squeeze zones, dynamic support/resistance, EMAs, setup validation, and early reversal signals in one clean interface — without clutter.
✔ Core Features
📌 1. Smart Momentum Ribbon
A dynamic EMA-based momentum band that visually shifts as trend strength changes.
Helps identify strong vs. weak momentum zones
Adapts to volatility & trend slope
Works on all timeframes (1m to 1M)
📌 2. EMA 9 → 21 Flip System
A precision trend-switching signal:
EMA 9 → 21 BULL = early bullish momentum
EMA 9 → 21 BEAR = early bearish momentum
More reliable than stand-alone MA crossovers
📌 3. Bullish Setup Engine (Standard + Weak)
Automatically identifies when price is entering a reversal-ready state based on:
Position relative to the ribbon
Candle structure
Momentum compression
Slope + exhaustion conditions
Includes:
Bull Setup (Standard) — Higher probability setup
Bull Setup (Weak) — Early or less developed setup
Setup Invalidated — Confirms that the pattern failed
This prevents false confidence & keeps traders disciplined.
📌 4. Strong Buy / Strong Sell Signals
Only appear when multiple confirmations align:
Ribbon bias
EMA slope
Momentum compression
Trend alignment
Filtered to remove noise — especially in lower timeframes.
📌 5. Multi-Timeframe Trend HUD
Top-right panel summarizing:
Overall Trend (Bullish, Bearish, Neutral)
RSI Condition
Daily vs Weekly Alignment
Trading Mode Suggestions (Buy / Sell / LEAPS / Neutral)
This gives instant context.
📌 6. Auto Intraday Engine (NEW in v9.5)
Automatically switches internal logic when you move into intraday timeframes (1m–30m):
Intraday Enhancements:
Adaptive setup detection
Faster momentum sensitivity
EMAs tuned for scalp/swing precision
Tighter invalidation logic
Reduced false positives
Optional strict filtering
Perfect for scalping, day trading & micro-trends
Works instantly — no settings needed.
Just change the chart timeframe and MAHI adjusts.
📌 7. Dynamic High-Timeframe Support (W & M)
Auto-layers weekly & monthly levels:
Helps identify strong bounce zones
Extremely useful for swing & LEAPS traders
📌 8. Weekly Volume Shelf Projection
Lightweight VWAP-style level based on weekly volume aggregation.
Shows probable bottoming areas during pullbacks.
✔ Who This Indicator Is For
Perfect for:
Day traders
Swing traders
Momentum riders
LEAPS & long-term investors
Beginner traders needing a structured system
MAHI adapts to your timeframe and trading style.
✔ Why MAHI Works
MAHI isn’t a single-signal indicator — it’s a framework.
It combines:
Trend
Momentum
Volatility
Setup pattern detection
Validation & invalidation
Multi-timeframe alignment
Dynamic zones
Intraday optimization
This eliminates guesswork and helps traders avoid the emotional traps that cause most losses.
You don’t just get a signal — you get context.
✔ How to Use It
Follow the ribbon bias
Use EMA 9→21 flips as trend confirmation
Look for Bull Setup tags during pullbacks
Avoid trades when you see Setup Invalidated
Respect weekly/monthly HTF support levels
On intraday charts — rely on auto-optimized mode
For swing entries, combine setups with HTF trend HUD
MAHI gives the map. You choose the path.
✔ Final Notes
This version is heavily optimized for performance, clarity, and high-probability signals.
MAHI does not repaint, and works on all assets including:
Stocks
Crypto
ETFs
Forex
Futures
Tactical Deviation🎯 TACTICAL DEVIATION - Volume-Backed VWAP Deviation Analysis
What Makes This Different?
Unlike basic VWAP indicators, Tactical Deviation combines:
• Multi-timeframe VWAP deviation bands (Daily/Weekly/Monthly)
• Volume spike intelligence - signals only appear with volume confirmation
• Pivot reversal detection at deviation extremes
• Optional multi-VWAP confluence system
• Smart defaults for quality over quantity
This unique combination filters weak setups and identifies high-probability entries at extreme price deviations from fair value.
📊 DEFAULT SETTINGS (Ready to Use)
✅ Daily VWAP with ±2σ deviation bands
✅ Volume spike detection (1.5x average required)
✅ 2σ minimum deviation for signals
❌ Weekly/Monthly VWAPs (enable for multi-timeframe)
❌ Pivot reversal requirement (enable for stronger signals)
❌ Fill zones (optional visual enhancement)
Why: Daily VWAP is most relevant for intraday trading. 2σ bands catch meaningful moves. Volume spikes ensure conviction. Clean chart focuses on what matters.
🚀 HOW TO USE
BASIC USAGE:
• Green triangles (below bars) = Long signals at oversold deviations
• Red triangles (above bars) = Short signals at overbought deviations
SIGNAL QUALITY:
• Normal size, bright colors = Volume spike (best quality)
• Small size, lighter colors = Volume momentum
• Tiny size = No volume confirmation
DEVIATION ZONES:
• ±2σ = Extreme deviation (signals appear here)
• ±1σ to ±2σ = Extended but not extreme
• Within ±1σ = Normal range
TRADING APPROACHES:
Mean Reversion:
→ Enter when price reaches ±2σ with volume spike
→ Target: Return to VWAP or opposite band
→ Stop: Beyond extreme deviation
Trend Continuation:
→ Use bands to identify pullbacks
→ Enter pullback to VWAP in trending market
→ Volume confirms continuation
Reversal Trading:
→ Enable "Require Pivot Reversal" for stronger signals
→ Signals only when deviation + pivot reversal occur
→ Higher probability, fewer signals
⚙️ EXPLORE SETTINGS FOR FULL USE
VWAP SETTINGS:
• Show Weekly/Monthly VWAP = Multi-timeframe context
• Show ±1σ Bands = Normal deviation range
• Show ±3σ Bands = Extreme extremes (rare but powerful)
SIGNAL SETTINGS:
• Min Deviation: 1σ (more signals) | 2σ (default) | 3σ (fewer, extreme only)
• Require Pivot Reversal: OFF (default) | ON (stronger but fewer)
• Volume Spike Threshold: 1.5x (default) | 2.0x+ (major spikes) | 1.2x (more signals)
CONFLUENCE SETTINGS:
• Require Multi-VWAP Confluence: OFF (default) | ON (2+ VWAPs must agree)
• Min VWAPs: 2 (Daily + Weekly/Monthly) | 3 (all must agree)
VISUAL SETTINGS:
• Show Fill Zones = Shaded areas between bands
• Fill Opacity = Transparency adjustment
• Line Widths = Customize thickness
💡 PRO TIPS
1. Start with defaults, then enable features as you learn
2. Volume spike requirement filters weak moves - keep it enabled
3. Enable Weekly/Monthly VWAPs for higher timeframe context
4. Enable confluence for swing trading setups
5. Pivot reversals: ON for reversals, OFF for continuations
6. Check top-right info table for current deviation levels
🎨 VISUAL GUIDE
• Cyan Line = Daily VWAP (fair value)
• Cyan Bands = Daily deviation zones
• Orange Line = Weekly VWAP (if enabled)
• Purple Line = Monthly VWAP (if enabled)
• Green Triangle = Long signal (oversold)
• Red Triangle = Short signal (overbought)
⚠️ IMPORTANT
Educational purposes only. Always use proper risk management. Signals are based on statistical deviation, not guarantees. Volume confirmation improves quality but doesn't guarantee outcomes. Combine with your own analysis.
The unique combination of VWAP deviation analysis, volume profile confirmation, pivot identification, and multi-timeframe confluence in a single clean interface makes Tactical Deviation different from basic VWAP indicators.
Happy Trading! 📈

Kev's RSI2 SMA50 Strategy⭐ Kev’s RSI2 SMA50 Strategy — Institutional Edition (TSX Optimized + RR Filter)
A professional swing-trading system based on Larry Connors’ RSI(2) mean-reversion framework, optimized for TSX equities. Designed for Daily timeframe trading with institutional trend alignment, volatility filtering, and strict risk-reward controls.
📌 Overview
This strategy enhances the classic RSI(2) setup with:
• Strong trend confirmation (SMA50 + Weekly SMA50)
• Deep pullback detection (RSI2 < 3)
• Structural swing-based stop-loss
• Fixed 2R profit target (non-repainting)
• Optional Connors RSI (CRSI) confirmation
• Volatility filtering via ATR range
• Mechanical, deterministic, no-discretion rules
Works best on TSX large & mid-caps, ETFs, and liquid equities.
🔍 Core Philosophy
Buy strong stocks on pullbacks → Price must be above SMA50 + Weekly SMA50.
Pullback must be statistically meaningful → RSI(2) < 3.
R:R must justify the trade → Swing-low SL + 2R target with structural room to hit TP.
🧠 Entry Conditions (Non-Repainting)
• RSI(2) < 3 → Identifies extreme short-term oversold dips.
• SMA50 Filter → Ensures uptrend alignment.
• Weekly HTF Filter (Default = 1W) → Confirms broader trend direction.
• ATR Filter → Rejects volatile bars (range < ATR(14) × 2.2).
• Optional:
– SMA50 Slope (positive trend strength)
– Bullish Reversal Candle
– Connors RSI < 20 (deep pullback confirmation)
🎯 Risk Management
All levels are locked at entry and never repaint.
• Swing-Low SL (last 5 bars)
• 2R Profit Target = Entry + (Risk × 2)
• R:R Feasibility Filter → Only enters if recent swing high is above TP.
• Optional RSI Exit → Exit when RSI2 > 90 (enabled by default).
• Optional SMA Exit (disabled by default) → Conservative early exit.
📈 Visuals
The script plots:
• SMA50
• Weekly SMA50
• Swing-Low SL (fixed)
• 2R TP (fixed)
• Optional SMA exit line
All are non-repainting and update only on confirmed bars.
🔔 Alerts
Buy Signal → All entry filters aligned (RSI2, SMA50, HTF, ATR, RR check).
Exit Signal → 2R hit, SL hit, RSI exit, or SMA exit (if enabled).
🧭 Recommended Usage
• Timeframe: Daily
• HTF: Weekly (default)
• Best For: TSX equities, mid/large-cap stocks, ETFs
• Style: Short-term swing trading (1–10 bars)
• Avoid: Low-volume tickers, microcaps, crypto, biotech, news-driven spikes.
🛑 Notes
• All HTF data uses lookahead_off → non-repainting.
• Rules are fully mechanical and deterministic.
• Position sizing uses % equity by default.
• This script is for educational purposes only and not financial advice.
• Always forward-test before using live capital.
