MTF OB Supply Demand ZonesHello everyone,
This exceptional indicator provides you with visual representations of bullish and bearish order blocks or supply and demand zones across multiple timeframes. In simple terms, bullish order blocks are represented by a small red candle followed by a large red candle, while bearish order blocks are depicted as a small green candle followed by a large red candle. Supply and demand zones are drawn by using order blocks.
Features:
Display order blocks from up to three different timeframes.
Customize the maximum number of boxes shown and the colors of the zones.
Choose from three different modes: OB (Order Block), Extended OB, and Supply/Demand.
Mode Descriptions:
OB: Includes the body of the candle.
Extended OB: Encompasses the body and wick of the candle.
Supply/Demand: Covers the body, wick, and half the body of the large candle.
Usage:
Ensure that charts 2 and 3 are set to a higher timeframe. For modes 2 and 3, it’s recommended to reduce the maximum number of boxes shown. The zones or boxes are transparent, allowing for overlap. This feature aids in identifying reversal zones or confirmed zones. The more intense the color, the stronger the confirmation. If a green zone overlaps a red zone (or vice versa), it signifies a reversal zone.
Thank you for checking out this indicator!

Additional Information:
Order blocks refer to specific price areas where large market participants, such as institutional traders, have previously placed significant buy or sell orders. These clusters of orders can impact price movement, liquidity, and market sentiment.
Order blocks are a strategic approach to identifying key levels of support and resistance based on the behavior of institutional traders. These key levels are then utilized as entry or exit points for trades.
An order block is an area where there has been a large concentration of limit orders awaiting execution. These blocks are identified on a chart by observing previous price action and pinpointing areas where the price experienced significant movement or abrupt changes in direction.
Order blocks are used in the following popular trading philosophies:

Volume Profile with Node Detection [LuxAlgo]The Volume Profile with Node Detection is a charting tool that allows visualizing the distribution of traded volume across specific price levels and highlights significant volume nodes or clusters of volume nodes that traders may find relevant in utilizing in their trading strategies.
🔶 USAGE
The volume profile component of the script serves as the foundation for node detection while encompassing all the essential features expected from a volume profile. See the sub-sections below for more detailed information about the indicator components and their usage.
🔹 Peak Volume Node Detection
A volume peak node is identified when the volume profile nodes for the N preceding and N succeeding nodes are lower than that of the evaluated one.
Displaying peak volume nodes along with their surrounding N nodes (Zones or Clusters) helps visualize the range, typically representing consolidation zones in the market. This feature enables traders to identify areas where trading activity has intensified, potentially signaling periods of price consolidation or indecision among market participants.
🔹 Trough Volume Node Detection
A volume trough node is identified when the volume profile nodes for the N preceding and N succeeding nodes are higher than that of the evaluated one.
🔹 Highest and Lowest Volume Nodes
Both the highest and lowest volume areas play significant roles in trading. The highest volume areas typically represent zones of strong price acceptance, where a significant amount of trading activity has occurred. On the other hand, the lowest volume areas signify price levels with minimal trading activity, often indicating zones of price rejection or areas where market participants have shown less interest.
🔹 Volume profile
Volume profile is calculated based on the volume of trades that occur at various price levels within a specified timeframe. It divides the price range into discrete price intervals, typically known as "price buckets" or "price bars," and then calculates the total volume of trades that occur at each price level within those intervals. This information is then presented graphically as a histogram or profile, where the height of each bar represents the volume of trades that occurred at that particular price level.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Volume Nodes
Volume Peaks: Toggles the visibility of either the "Peaks" or "Clusters" on the chart, depending on the specified percentage for detection.

Century Levels [UkutaLabs]█ OVERVIEW
The Century Levels Indicator provides real-time insight into key price levels within the market that can serve as powerful support and resistance levels. These levels are updated automatically in real time to display only the most relevant levels to the current price, facilitating your trading experience.
The aim of this script is to simplify the trading experience of users by automatically identifying and displaying price levels that they should be aware of.
█ USAGE
On each tick, the nearest key price level is automatically identified by the script. The script will identify this level based on the price of the commodity you are applying it to:
• Commodities priced at $0 to $999.99 will identify the nearest whole dollar.
• Commodities priced at $1'000 to $9'999.99 will identify the nearest $10.
• Commodities priced at $10'000 to $99'999.99 will identify the nearest $100.
• Commodities priced over $1'000'000 will identify the nearest $1000.
We refer to this rounding price as the gap price, and it is also used to determine the prices of the other lines drawn by this script.
After identifying the nearest key price level, the script then incrementally draws lines on either side of this level at an interval of the gap price. We refer to these as the Major Lines, and the user can control the number of these lines that get drawn, the style of these lines, and they can be disabled in the settings.
The script then draws lines at the half-way point between each of these Major Lines, and we refer to these as the Minor Lines. Like the Major Lines, the user has full control over the number of these lines that can be drawn, the style of these lines, and they can be disabled in the settings.
█ SETTINGS
Configuration
• Number of Lines: Determines the number of lines that are drawn on either side of the key price line. This controls both the number of Major Lines and Minor Lines.
Line Settings
• Major Lines: Determines whether or not the Major Lines will be displayed.
- Color: Determines the color of Major Lines.
- Style: Determines the style of Major Lines.
- Width: Determines the width of Major Lines
• Minor Lines: Determines whether or not the Minor Lines will be displayed.
- Color: Determines the color of Minor Lines
- Style: Determines the style of Minor Lines
- Width: Determines the width of Minor Lines
SVMKR_VIX_Based_LevelsThe "SVMKR_VIX_Based_Levels" script is a Pine Script indicator designed to assist intraday traders in identifying dynamic support and resistance levels based on the Volatility Index (VIX). Here's a breakdown of the script and its uses for intraday traders:

Reversal Pivot PointsThis indicator aims to identify price levels where price action has quickly reversed from. These "pivots" establish major levels where major liquidity is located. Unlike standard support and resistance levels, when price breaks below or above a pivot, these pivots disappear from the chart. Comes with various customization features built to fit all.
Features
Pivot Timeframe: Identify and plot pivots from one specific timeframe and see it from all lower timeframes
Pivot left/right bar limit: A feature aimed at preventing false pivots identification
Remove On Close (ROC): Feature to only remove pivots once price close under it
ROC Timeframe: The timeframe the script uses to determine if the candle closed under the level
Wait For Close: Will only remove the pivot after the current candle closes
Line Extension Type: The extension of the line. None - extends line to current time, left - only extends line to the left, right - only extends line to the right, both - extends line both directions
Line Offset: How much to offset (in bars) the line and label from the current candle
Line Type: The style of line when plotted. Solid (─), dotted (┈), dashed (╌), arrow left (←), arrow right (→), arrows both (↔)
Display Level: Whether to or not to display the price of the pivot
Display Perfect Level: Whether to or not to display levels where price perfectly rejected off of
Alerts: Creates an alert when a level has been crossed
How to trade
1. Pivots can be traded to or from. The stock market (market makers) will tend to "chase" liquidity in order to fill orders at better averages. This allows us retail traders to to participate alongside these moves to these pivots. Once price action hits a pivot, it can do two things: break the pivot and continue or bounce off it. We can participate alongside these bounces after confirmation of a reversal (doji, volume, etc). These bounce plays are high risk as it's generally 50-50, but the risk to reward is typically also very high, making them very valuable to take.
2. Typically, the market is a fluid environment and should be "natural," so perfect things (manmade and filled with liquidity) should not occur. With this knowledge, we can expect these perfect levels, "PDT/PDB," to break as they are not natural occurrence and have heavy liquidity on and above/below them. We can trade to these levels and expect them to break/sweep if price action comes near them again.
Jemmy Trade Whales Multiple Signal Options - Nine in One $$$This script is a combination of several indicators and trading strategies.
Let's break down each part:
1. MACD Indicator (My MACD Indicator – Nabil's Version): This calculates the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) using Heikin Ashi candles. It uses Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) to compute the fast and slow lengths and then calculates the MACD line, signal line, and histogram based on the difference between these EMAs.
2. Smoothed Moving Average (SMMA): This calculates a smoothed moving average using a user-defined length.
3. Least Squares Moving Average (LSMA): This calculates a least squares moving average using a user-defined length.
4. High Low SAR - Nabil's Version: This section calculates various levels based on SAR (Stop and Reverse) indicator. It also plots lines based on certain conditions and includes SAR lines with specific properties.
5. Volume-Weighted Hull Moving Average (VHMA) - Nabil's Version: This calculates a volume-weighted Hull moving average.
6. SAR (Stop and Reverse): This calculates the SAR indicator with user-defined parameters.
7. Mean Reversion Strategy: This part calculates upper and lower bands based on a multiplier of Standard Deviation from a mean. It also generates buy and sell signals based on crossing these bands.
8. SSL Hybrid - Nabil's Version: This calculates various indicators like SSL (Stochastic Scaled Levels), ATR (Average True Range) bands, and Keltner Channels. It also plots buy and sell signals based on certain conditions.
9. Buy Signal Options: This section defines several conditions for generating buy signals based on different combinations of indicators and plots corresponding buy signals.
Each section seems to be relatively independent and focused on calculating specific indicators or trading strategies. The script combines these components to provide a comprehensive trading setup with various buy signal options based on user preferences.
BUY SIGNALS EXPLAINATION:
1. MAIN - Price: This signal triggers when the current candle's close price crosses above the lookback average line (lookbackavg). It indicates a bullish momentum when the price moves above the average line.
2. MAIN - Price - SMMA - LSMA / Crossing: This signal combines multiple conditions:
• The current candle's close price crosses above the lookback average line.
• The smoothed moving average (SMMA) crosses above the lookback average line.
• The least squares moving average (LSMA) crosses above the lookback average line. This signal confirms a bullish trend when all three moving averages cross above the average line simultaneously.
3. MAIN - Price - (SMMA > LSMA) / No Crossing: This signal triggers when the following conditions are met:
• The current candle's close price crosses above the lookback average line.
• The SMMA is above the LSMA. This signal confirms a bullish trend when the SMMA remains consistently above the LSMA without crossing.
4. MAIN - Price - SMMA - LSMA - SAR - SSL / Crossing: This signal combines multiple conditions:
• The current candle's close price, SMMA, and LSMA cross above the lookback average line.
• The SAR (Stop and Reverse) indicator is above the SSL (Stochastic Scaled Levels). This signal indicates a strong bullish momentum when all conditions align.
5. MAIN - Price - (SMMA > LSMA) - SAR - SSL / No Crossing: This signal triggers when the following conditions are met:
• The current candle's close price crosses above the lookback average line.
• The SMMA is consistently above the LSMA.
• The SAR is above the SSL. This signal confirms a bullish trend without any crossing of moving averages.
6. MAIN - Price - SMMA - LSMA - SAR - SSL / Crossing - Coloring: Similar to signal 4, this signal additionally checks for specific colors of SAR and SSL lines to confirm a bullish momentum.
7. MAIN - Price - (SMMA > LSMA) - SAR - SSL / No Crossing - Coloring: Similar to signal 5, this signal also checks for specific colors of SAR and SSL lines to confirm a bullish trend without any crossing of moving averages.
8. MAIN Support line - 2 Candles: This signal triggers when the price pulls back from below the support line within the last two candles. It indicates a potential reversal from a support level.
9. MAIN Support line - lookBack Candles: This signal is similar to signal 8 but considers a specified lookback range for checking the pullback from below the support line.
These buy signals aim to identify various bullish scenarios based on combinations of price action, moving averages, SAR, and SSL indicators. Each signal offers different levels of confirmation for potential buying opportunities in the market.

Lin Reg (Linear Regression) Support and Resistance by xxMargauxLin Reg (Linear Regression) Support & Resistance by xxMargaux 💸
This indicator plots three linear regression lines (Lin Reg) on the price chart, providing insights into potential support and resistance levels. It calculates Lin Reg lines based on user-defined lengths and sources.
This indicator's settings were initially configured for MNQ1! (E-Mini Nasdaq 100 futures contracts). But works as intended on any security and on any timeframe.
When price is below a given Lin Reg line, that line will be red and may serve as resistance as price moves up towards the line. That is, it may be a potential short entry opportunity. When price is above a given Lin Reg line, that line will be green and may serve as support as price continues up from the line. That is, it may be a potential long entry opportunity.
When price starts to break sideways or down through the Lin Reg lines, this may signal a reversal from uptrend to downtrend. When price starts to break sideways or up through the Lin Reg Lines, this may signal a reversal from downtrend to uptrend. In very strong trends, breaking through the lines briefly may provide an entry opportunity, but be cautious because a trend reversal may also be possible.
Inputs:
Length of Price Lin Reg Lines: Customize the lengths of the three Lin Reg lines.
Source for Price Lin Reg Lines: Choose the source for each Lin Reg line.
Source for Security Price: Select the price source for the security.
Features:
Trend Analysis: Assists in visualizing price trends based on the relationship between the security price and Lin Reg lines, which will be colored according to whether price is above or below each Lin Reg line.
Customizable Colors: When price is above a Lin Reg line that line will be green. When price is below a Lin Reg line, that line will be red.
Here's a beginner-friendly explanation of linear regression lines 💡
Best-Fit Line: Imagine you have a scatter plot of closing prices on a chart. Linear regression aims to find the straight line that best fits the overall trend of these data points. It's like drawing a line through the center of the data that minimizes the distance between the line and each data point.
Trend Identification: Once the linear regression line is plotted on a price chart, it provides a visual representation of the trend. If the price is generally rising, the linear regression line will slope upwards. If the price is falling, the line will slope downwards. This helps traders identify whether the trend is bullish (upward) or bearish (downward).
Support and Resistance: Linear regression lines can also act as dynamic support and resistance levels. When the price is above the linear regression line, it may act as support, meaning the price tends to bounce off the line and continue higher. Conversely, when the price is below the line, it may act as resistance, with the price encountering selling pressure and potentially reversing lower.
Reversal Signals: Changes in the slope or direction of the linear regression line can signal potential trend reversals. For example, if the price breaks above a downward-sloping linear regression line, it may indicate a shift from a downtrend to an uptrend, and vice versa.
Adjustable Parameters: Traders can customize the length of the linear regression line by adjusting the period over which it's calculated. Shorter periods may be more sensitive to recent price changes, while longer periods may provide a smoother trend line.

ICT Silver Bullet | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new ICT Silver Bullet Indicator! This indicator is built around the ICT's "Silver Bullet" strategy. The strategy has 5 steps for execution and works best in 1-5 min timeframes. For more information about the process, check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new ICT Silver Bullet Indicator :
Implementation of ICT's Silver Bullet Strategy
Customizable Execution Settings
2 NY Sessions & London Session
Customizable Backtesting Dashboard
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP & SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
ICT's Silver Bullet strategy has 5 steps :
1. Mark your market sessions open (This indicator has 3 -> NY 10-11, NY 14-15, LDN 03-04)
2. Mark the swing liquidity points
3. Wait for market to take down one liquidity side
4. Look for a market structure-shift for reversals
5. Wait for a FVG for execution
This indicator follows these steps and inform you step by step by plotting them in your chart. You can switch execution types between FVG and MSS.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator is an all-in-one suit for the ICT's Silver Bullet concept. It's capable of plotting the strategy, giving signals, a backtesting dashboard and alerts feature. It's designed for simplyfing a rather complex strategy, helping you to execute it with clean signals. The backtesting dashboard allows you to see how your settings perform in the current ticker. You can also set up alerts to get informed when the strategy is executable for different tickers.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Execution Type -> FVG execution type will require a FVG to take an entry, while the MSS setting will take an entry as soon as it detects a market structure-shift.
MSS Swing Length -> The swing length when finding liquidity zones for market structure-shift detection.
Breakout Method -> If "Wick" is selected, a bar wick will be enough to confirm a market structure-shift. If "Close" is selected, the bar must close above / below the liquidity zone to confirm a market structure-shift.
FVG Detection -> "Same Type" means that all 3 bars that formed the FVG should be the same type. (Bullish / Bearish). "All" means that bar types may vary between bullish / bearish.
FVG Detection Sensitivity -> You can turn this setting on and off. If it's off, any 3 consecutive bullish / bearish bars will be calculated as FVGs. If it's on, the size of FVGs will be filtered by the selected sensitivity. Lower settings mean less but larger FVGs.
2. TP / SL
TP / SL Method -> If "Fixed" is selected, you can adjust the TP / SL ratios from the settings below. If "Dynamic" is selected, the TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm.
Risk -> The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails.
Close Position @ Session End -> If this setting is enabled, the current position (if any) will be closed at the beginning of a new session, regardless if it hit the TP / SL zone. If it's off, the position will be open until it hits a TP / SL zone.
Fixed volume profile & zonesHi all!
If you like volume profile and like to create zones, where the price might react, this indicator might be for you. It plots a fixed volume profile and creates a user defined number of zones (shelves) of high volume.
If you want to know more about volume profile you can about it here on TradingView: se.tradingview.com
To do
• Add possiblity to create alerts for zone entries, breakouts and retest
• The importance of zones are now based on high volume slots only. It might be changed to include the slots around the 'master slot' to determine if the area is of high importance or not, your suggestions here are welcome!
• Show total volume in 'values'
• Error if the data cannot be fetched
• Add value area
• Make earlier (more important shelves) more visible (less transparent)
• Add possiblity to skip zones
Known issues
• Script execution is long when the volume profile is created (should be none)
• In some cases you can get overlapping shelves, avoid this
Settings
• Main
• Start/end bar of the volume profile (this is required)
• Data
• Timeframe (for getting the volume data)
• Levels (the number of slots in the volume profile)
• Shelves (the number of zones with high volume to plot) and it's color
• Max slot (have this enabled if you want the shelf's highest volume slot to have a dotted line and choose it's color
• Show info (show the order of the plotted zone)
• Style (how the volume profile will look)
• Histogram box (the color of the background of the volume profile)
• Up (the color of bullish volume)
• Down (the color of bearish volume)
• Point of control (color and if it should be extended or not)
• Values and text color (show bullish and bearish volume values)
The defaults on all settings are based on the daily timeframe. This indicator is not 'complete' and I plan to work on it when I get the time.
Note that the precision for the volume profile is per candle, so some levels can have visuals as others but lower volume.
The slot (level) volume has to have a lower difference to the volume included in the shelf than the next volume to be checked to be included. If the level being checked for inclusion in a shelf is at the end of boundaries (high and low) of the volume profile, the volume has to be higher than the golden ratio of the volume before.
You can also use this indicator if you just want a volume profile to show, just set the the number of zones to plot (in 'Shelves') to 0.
I hope I haven't forgotten anything and that it's clear, let me know otherwise.
Best of trading luck!
Gann SquareIntroduction
Legendary trader W.D. Gann illuminated the cyclical nature of financial markets, revealing their adherence to predictable patterns rooted in geometry, astronomy, and numerology. With his own trading results as evidence, Gweaklann showcased the efficacy of these principles in uncovering market dynamics, including breakouts, reversals, and crucial price levels acting as support and resistance.
Introducing Gann Square
Gann Square, also known as the Gann Box, stands as a cornerstone of technical analysis, offering traders a powerful tool to decipher market movements and anticipate future price action. Built upon primary angles, notably the 45-degree (1x1 angle) ascending from the origin to the top-right corner and its corresponding negative angle descending from the top-right to the bottom-left corner, Gann Square epitomizes precision and foresight in chart analysis.
Unveiling Points of Setup
Central to Gann Square's functionality is the identification of points of setup. These critical junctures mark significant highs or lows in price movements, serving as pivotal reference points for traders seeking to navigate market shifts and capitalize on emerging opportunities.
Time scale: Calendar or Trading days
A lot of effort was spent to realize a precise relationship between time and price, as angles of price arise with time or with chart bars. The best of these two options is related to the type of instrument used, and is usually could be determines empirically.
For example, consider a ticker that is at market five days per week. By using TradingDays we have a match between candles on the chart and days as time, so the angle arises in a linear way. Instead of using Calendar option, from Monday to Monday we have 7 days, and the algorithm takes care of this and the angle arise faster. Look at the pictures below, with Calendar option there's a little step every time there is day's jump between consecutive candles.
Same square on TradingDays and Calendar
Timeframe independence
In Gann analysis, the correlation between angles and time periods is inherently cyclical, where each degree corresponds to approximately one day, and a full circle of 360 degrees symbolizes a year. This timeless relationship allows Gann indicators to transcend individual timeframes, ensuring consistency while preserving the critical balance between time and price dynamics.
Gann indicators operate seamlessly across multiple timeframes, yet they remain steadfastly anchored to the daily timeframe as the primary reference point. This deliberate choice maintains the integrity of the time-price relationship, essential for accurate analysis and interpretation.
Preserving Proportion Amidst Time Shifts
When an angle intersects a pivot point during a timeframe transition, the Gann indicator upholds its proportional integrity without compromise. Whether examining daily, weekly, or monthly intervals, the indicator seamlessly aligns with pivotal price levels, ensuring continuity and precision in analysis.
Illustrating Consistency in Practice
Visualize the power of timeframe independence through a single Gann fan spanning both daily and weekly intervals. Witness how each angle touches the same pivotal point, meticulously maintaining proportionality across varying timeframes, as depicted in the accompanying illustration.
Same square on daily and weekly
Intraday daily and hourly
Handle TradingView bounds
By placing a square at the limits of the chart you risk going beyond the limits of the TradingView drawable area which is 500 bars in the future. In this case the indicator manages this eventuality by truncating the drawing and trying to calculate the theoretical measurement anyway to draw the angles inside it. This leads to having a square with some geometric errors but still allows you to proceed with the analysis.
Summary of features
Automatic price placement: the indicator look at the trend and decide autonomously if angle starts from candle low or high;
Manual price placement: it's possible to disable automatic placement and specify a start price;
Angle extension to present: draw angle until last available bar;
Extension to future: draw angle and square in the future after the latest available bar ( actual TradingView limit is 500 bars in the future );
Multiple timeframe are supported ( more details below);
Trading days: time is considered in number of bars, for example the ticker AAPL usually has 5 daily bars per week;
Calendar: time is considered in number of days, for example the ticker AAPL usually has 7 days per week;
Future bars: It's possible to draw until 500 bars after the latest ( TradingView bound);
Square over bound handling (explained above);
Operating Instructions
Placing the Gann Square on the chart
When positioning the Gann Square, ensure that the positive square is placed on an important pivot low, while the negative angle should be positioned on a pivot high. By default, the script automatically selects the pivot price based on the trend of the previous candle. However, it's important to note that automatic price selection may not always be accurate, especially in certain market conditions. In such cases, users have the option to manually specify the pivot price.
Exercise caution when using automatic price selection in conjunction with changing timeframes. For instance, the pivot low of a monthly candle may not align perfectly with a daily candle. In such scenarios, it is advisable to either opt for manual price selection or initially place the indicator using the daily timeframe before switching to a wider timeframe, such as monthly.
In intraday trading, transitioning to a daily or wider timeframe while maintaining angle proportionality between timeframes may pose challenges with automatic price selection. In this particular scenario, it is recommended to utilize manual price selection for accuracy.
Furthermore, it's beneficial to differentiate between intraday operations and daily or longer-term operations when utilizing the Gann Square, as each may require distinct considerations and approaches for optimal effectiveness.
Price unit, Factor and divisor
The size of the Gann Square can be customized using the following settings:
Price Unit (Scale) : The Price Unit, also known as the scale, determines the increment along the main angle (45°) of the Gann Square. Adjusting the Price Unit allows you to fine-tune the relationship between price and time, enabling the adaptation of the square to suit the characteristics of any financial instrument.
Factor : The Factor setting provides additional flexibility in adjusting the scale of the Gann Square. By modifying the Factor, you can further refine the proportions of the square to align with specific trading strategies or market conditions.
Divisor : The Divisor setting enables you to divide the square size by a specified factor (e.g., 2, 4, etc.). This feature offers a convenient way to adjust the size of the square while maintaining proportionality and symmetry, enhancing the versatility of the Gann Square tool.
By utilizing these settings in combination, traders can effectively tailor the Gann Square to their preferences and requirements, empowering them to conduct detailed technical analysis and make informed trading decisions across various financial instruments and market environments.
Point of setup
The Gann Square provides settings to divide the square by vertical lines, allowing for enhanced analysis and identification of key points of setup. Users can choose to divide the square by four, by three, or both, providing flexibility in their analysis approach.
Utilizing Vertical Lines
These vertical lines play a crucial role in identifying important candles, price levels, and time intervals where trend reversals or significant market movements may occur. By dividing the square into smaller sections, traders can pinpoint potential areas of interest with greater precision.
Intersection of Angles
The points of setup identified by the vertical lines also correspond to the intersection of various angles drawn on the square. These intersections serve as focal points for analysis, indicating potential shifts in market dynamics and offering valuable insights into future price movements.
By leveraging the point of setup settings and paying attention to the intersection of angles, traders can enhance their understanding of market trends and make more informed trading decisions.

First In, First Out Moving AverageThis script is a tool designed to calculate a First In, First Out (FIFO) Moving Average (MA) using traded prices and volumes. Additionally, it computes the Point of Control (PoC) from, which identifies the price levels (developing POC) with the maximum volume. The script is built to provide traders with a comprehensive analysis of price movements and volume dynamics, enhancing their understanding of market trends and potential entry/exit points.
Understanding the Mechanics:
The script maintains arrays for prices and volumes, where hypothetical trades are added.
For long trades (identified by red candles/bars), traded prices and volumes are appended to the respective arrays.
Short trades (identified by green candles/bars) trigger the removal of volumes from the arrays following the FIFO principle.
This process ensures the adjustment of partial or complete removal of oldest entries based on traded volume.
Analyzing Profit and Loss (PnL):
The script also tracks a hypothetical Profit and Loss (PnL) to understand whether the outcome is in red (negative) or green (positive) - color of the FIFO MA.
Interpreting the Results:
Once the script is applied to the chart, traders can observe the FIFO Moving Average (MA) and Point of Control (PoC) lines plotted.
By analyzing these lines and the associated colors (indicating positive or negative PnL), traders can make informed decisions regarding market trends, support/resistance levels and potential trading opportunities.
PVSRA Candles Auto OverrideWhat does this “PVSRA Candles Auto Override” Indicator
do?
This indicator automates PVSRA analysis for crypto traders. It finds the corresponding Binance Perpetual Futures chart for the current instrument, then replaces the current chart's volume profile with the perpetual futures data (if available) to ensure the PVSRA calculation uses the most relevant volume. This not only reduces human error during market scans but also automatically selects the appropriate Binance Perpetual Futures contract, saving time and improving the accuracy of PVSRA calculations.
How can a trader use this indicator?
This helps the trader to identify if there is volume data available in an equivalent Binance Perpetual Futures chart and automatically displays it, making it easier to switch coins whilst viewing the market. Why do we want to use Binance Perpetual Futures Volume? In most markets Binance volume surpasses those of other crypto exchanges so this will give us a better view on the volume spikes in the market.
What is PVSRA and how can I trade using this indicator?
PVSRA candles are a type of candlestick chart formatting. PVSRA stands for Price, Volume, Support and Resistance Analysis.
Here's a breakdown of what PVSRA candles aim to achieve:
Combine multiple factors: They take into account price movement, trading volume, and support and resistance levels to identify potential trading opportunities.
Highlight potential imbalances: By color-coding candles based on PVSRA analysis, they aim to show areas of high volume activity, potentially representing imbalances created by market makers (large institutions that influence price).
Identify areas of revisit: The theory is that these high-volume zones may be revisited by the market in the future, as there's "unrecovered liquidity" in those areas.
Usage of the Indicator:
By default the indicator will automatically use the Equivalent Binance Perpetual Chart for the Data
You can override the symbol manually if you what to view another instrument’s data.
Previous 5 Day Market CloseThis indicator can be used with a strategy known as gap close reversal. Gap close reversal is a trading strategy based on the idea that when a market experiences a gap (a significant difference between the previous day's close and the current day's open), there's a tendency for the price to fill or "close" the gap by moving back to the previous day's closing price. Traders often look for such opportunities as potential entry or exit points.
Here's how you can use this script for gap close reversal trading:
Identify Gaps: Look for instances where the current day's open price significantly deviates from the previous day's close, resulting in a gap on the chart. This could be a gap-up (where the open is higher than the previous close) or a gap-down (where the open is lower than the previous close).
Plot the Script: Apply the "Past 5 Days Close" script to your chart. This will plot the closing prices of the past five trading days as lines on the chart. These lines will serve as reference points for potential gap close levels.
Look for Reversal Signals: Monitor the price action as the market opens and observe how it behaves in relation to the previous day's close and the lines plotted by the script. If the price starts to move towards one of the past closing prices after a gap, it could indicate a potential reversal.
Confirm with Other Indicators: Use additional technical indicators or chart patterns to confirm the potential reversal signal. For example, you might look for bullish or bearish candlestick patterns, support or resistance levels, or momentum indicators aligning with the reversal.
[UST] Protein+Support/Resistance Script: A Comprehensive Overview
Thanks to Pmgjiv for providing the foundation to this improved Version.
In the world of trading, having a robust support and resistance analysis tool can make a significant difference in decision-making and overall strategy. Let's delve into the enhancements made to the support/resistance script and how each component contributes to a trader's arsenal:
Changes and improvements made for the script to help Traders make better rational decisions in their Trading:
1. Multiple Timeframes:
Integrating multiple timeframes into the analysis provides a multi-dimensional view of the market. Traders can now assess price action across different time horizons simultaneously. This feature allows for a deeper understanding of market dynamics and helps in identifying significant support and resistance levels across various timeframes.
2. Timeframe Labels Inside Zones:
By including timeframe labels within the zones, traders can easily identify the origin of each support or resistance level. This contextual information enhances clarity and facilitates more informed decision-making, especially when navigating through multiple timeframes.
3. Visual Zone Update:
Visual updates on zones enable traders to track changes in support and resistance levels in real-time. This dynamic feature enhances the analytical process by providing immediate insights into evolving market conditions, thereby enabling traders to adapt their strategies accordingly.
4. Zones Hit:
Understanding the frequency and intensity of zone hits offers valuable insights into the strength and relevance of support and resistance levels. Traders can gauge the significance of each zone based on its historical interaction with price, thereby gaining a deeper understanding of market sentiment and potential trading opportunities.
5. Option to Turn off Current Timeframe:
The ability to toggle off the current timeframe streamlines chart analysis by focusing only on the most critical support and resistance zones. This decluttering feature helps traders prioritize key levels, reducing cognitive overload and enhancing decision-making efficiency.
Explanation of Additional Functions:
a. Lookback:
The 'lookback' parameter allows traders to customize the age of support and resistance zones based on their trading style and preferences. By adjusting the lookback setting, traders can choose whether to prioritize recent price action or consider historical data, thus tailoring the analysis to their specific trading strategies.
b. Swinglength:
Swinglength determines the sensitivity of the support and resistance zones. By modifying this parameter, traders can control how aggressively the script identifies pivot points. A higher swinglength value results in smoother, more stable zones, whereas a lower value increases sensitivity, capturing smaller price movements.
c. ZigZag Indicator:
The ZigZag indicator plays a pivotal role in identifying significant price reversals. Its period setting determines the number of price bars considered before confirming a pivot point. Traders can utilize this indicator to identify key turning points in the market, aiding in the identification of robust support and resistance levels.
Impact of Sensitivity on Zones:
Adjusting the sensitivity of the ZigZag indicator directly influences the identification and delineation of support and resistance zones. Higher sensitivity levels result in fewer but more robust zones, capturing significant price movements. Conversely, lower sensitivity levels yield more zones, accommodating smaller price fluctuations but potentially introducing noise into the analysis.
d. S/R Range:
The ability to adjust the width of support and resistance zones allows traders to customize the breadth of key areas on a chart. Choosing a wider range encompasses a broader spectrum of prices, thereby identifying more comprehensive support and resistance levels. This flexibility enables traders to adapt their analysis to different market conditions and trading strategies.
Utilization in Trading:
Comprehensive Analysis: By incorporating multiple timeframes, traders gain a holistic view of market dynamics, enabling them to identify high-probability trading opportunities across various horizons.
Contextual Understanding: Timeframe labels within zones provide context, helping traders understand the significance of each level in relation to different timeframes and market conditions.
Real-time Adaptability: Visual zone updates facilitate real-time analysis, allowing traders to adjust their strategies promptly in response to changing market conditions.
Informed Decision-making: By considering zone hits, traders can assess the strength and relevance of support and resistance levels, enhancing their ability to make informed trading decisions.
Customized Analysis: Adjustable parameters such as lookback, swinglength, and sensitivity empower traders to tailor the analysis to their individual trading styles and preferences, enhancing precision and effectiveness.
In summary, these enhancements to the support/resistance script provide traders with a powerful toolkit for analyzing market dynamics, identifying key levels, and executing well-informed trading strategies across various timeframes and market conditions.
TrendLine Toolkit w/ Breaks (Real-Time)The TrendLine Toolkit script introduces an innovating capability by extending the conventional use of trendlines beyond price action to include oscillators and other technical indicators. This tool allows traders to automatically detect and display trendlines on any TradingView built-in oscillator or community-built script, offering a versatile approach to trend analysis. With breakout detection and real-time alerts, this script enhances the way traders interpret trends in various indicators.
🔲 Methodology
Trendlines are a fundamental tool in technical analysis used to identify and visualize the direction and strength of a price trend. They are drawn by connecting two or more significant points on a price chart, typically the highs or lows of consecutive price movements (pivots).
Drawing Trendlines:
Uptrend Line - Connects a series of higher lows. It signals an upward price trend.
Downtrend Line - Connects a series of lower highs. It indicates a downward price trend.
Support and Resistance:
Support Line - A trendline drawn under rising prices, indicating a level where buying interest is historically strong.
Resistance Line - A trendline drawn above falling prices, showing a level where selling interest historically prevails.
Identification of Trends:
Uptrend - Prices making higher highs and higher lows.
Downtrend - Prices making lower highs and lower lows.
Sideways (or Range-bound) - Prices moving within a horizontal range.
A trendline helps confirm the existence and direction of a trend, providing guidance in aligning with the prevailing market sentiment. Additionally, they are usually paired with breakout analysis, a breakout occurs when the price breaches a trendline. This signals a potential change in trend direction or an acceleration of the existing trend.
The script adapts this methodology to oscillators and other indicators. Instead of relying on price pivots, which can only be detected in retrospect, the script utilizes a trailing stop on the oscillator to identify potential swings in real-time, you may find more info about it here (SuperTrend toolkit) . We detect swings or pivots simply by testing for crosses between the indicator and its trailing stop.
type oscillator
float o = Oscillator Value
float s = Trailing Stop Value
oscillator osc = oscillator.new()
bool l = ta.crossunder(osc.o, osc.s) => Utilized as a formed high
bool h = ta.crossover (osc.o, osc.s) => Utilized as a formed low
This approach enables the algorithm to detect trendlines between consecutive pivot highs or lows on the oscillator itself, providing a dynamic and immediate representation of trend dynamics.
🔲 Breakout Detection
The script goes beyond trendline creation by incorporating breakout detection directly within the oscillator. After identifying a trendline, the algorithm continuously monitors the oscillator for potential breakouts, signaling shifts in market sentiment.
🔲 Setup Guide
A simple example on one of my public scripts, Z-Score Heikin-Ashi Transformed
🔲 Settings
Source - Choose an oscillator source of which to base the Toolkit on.
Zeroing - The Mid-Line value of the oscillator, for example RSI & MFI use 50.
Sensitivity - Calibrates the Sensitivity of which TrendLines are detected, higher values result in more detections.
🔲 Alerts
Bearish TrendLine
Bullish TrendLine

As well as the option to trigger 'any alert' call.
By integrating trendline analysis into oscillators, this Toolkit enhances the capabilities of technical analysis, bringing a dynamic and comprehensive approach to identifying trends, support/resistance levels, and breakout signals across various indicators.
Flow of Trade [Orderflowing]Flow of Trade | Supply & Demand Zones | Turtle Soup Reversal Pattern Detection (+)
Built using Pine Script V5.
Introduction
The Flow of Trade indicator is a trading tool designed to leverage the principles of Supply and Demand, along with automatic “Turtle Soup” reversal pattern detection.
This indicator is made for traders who aim to identify potential market reversal points, supported by multi-timeframe analysis for a more complete market overview.
Core Concepts and Innovation
Supply and Demand (S&D) Zones
At the heart of the Flow of Trade indicator is the concept of Supply & Demand, along with Market Imbalance, which is sound for identifying the Supply and Demand zones.
The Turtle Soup Reversal Pattern Detection
Named after the ICT-derived trading pattern, the Flow of Trade script tries to find and plot these "failed breakout" reversals based on the user input configuration.
Inputs
The Flow of Trade indicator offers customization, allowing traders to fit the tool to their specific analysis needs and trading style.
Zone Ratio: Determines the scale of imbalance required for a candle to be considered for a zone. A higher value indicates a need for a more significant imbalance, making zones less frequent but potentially more reliable.
Zone Extension: Specifies how far to the right of the latest bar the zones should extend, providing a visual projection of potential future support and resistance areas.
Display LTF Zones: Enables the visualization of zones from lower timeframes on the current chart, offering a multi-timeframe perspective on supply and demand areas.
Supply and Demand Zone Colors: Customize the colors for supply (red) and demand (blue) zones, including opacity for chart visibility.
Border Color: Adjust the border color to find a suitable view of the zones. Optionally disable the S&D colors with 0% opacity and only keep border colors for a border-only view.
Text Display Settings: Options to display high/low quotes information within zones.
Timeframe Options: Select which timeframes to include in the analysis, from shorter periods like 30M to longer ones like Daily (D) or Weekly (W), allowing for a complete view across different timeframes.
How It Works
Imbalance Calculation.
The indicator looks at consecutive candles to measure the magnitude of price movement and volume imbalances.
A significant imbalance between buying and selling pressure is what defines a potential supply or demand zone.
Supply Zones Identification.
A supply zone is flagged when there's imbalance favoring sellers, typically after a notable price drop. It looks for a consolidation phase where the price fails to achieve a higher high, suggesting an area where sellers might regain control.
Demand Zones Identification.
A demand zone is marked in the presence of a buyer-dominated imbalance, especially after a significant price rally.
The indicator seeks periods of consolidation where the price doesn't make a lower low, indicating potential buyer accumulation.
Multi-Timeframe Imbalance Analysis.
The indicator extends its imbalance analysis across multiple timeframes of identified zones.
This multi-layered approach allows traders to discern the strength and relevance of supply and demand zones within a broader multi-timeframe market context.
Turtle Soup Reversal Pattern Detection.
The Turtle Soup pattern detection is fitted into the imbalance analysis.
The indicator scans for setups within or near the identified supply and demand zones, providing an additional layer of confirmation for potential reversals.
The Turtle Soup Pattern Logic
Attempts at detecting false breakouts within the zones. For example, a bearish Turtle Soup pattern emerges when the price dips below a demand zone but quickly reverses, indicating a failed breakout and potential upward momentum.
Integration and Practical Application
The Flow of Trade indicator integrates these elements, marking out S&D zones while also scanning for reversal patterns within or adjacent to these zones.
The added multi-timeframe analysis can help the traders understanding of broader market context, enabling you to find the relative strength of MTF zones and see how reversal setups perform in the specific asset.
Strategic Entry and Exit Points: Use the confluence of S&D zones and Turtle Soup patterns to find possible entry and exit points.
Risk Management: Potentially leverage the defined zones for setting stop-loss levels and managing trade risk based on supply and demand concepts.
Confirmation and Confluence: Apply multi-timeframe analysis to validate S&D zones and Turtle Soup patterns.
Example of High/Low (H/L) Quotes from Zones:
Example of MTF S&D Zones (4H/D/W):
Conclusion
The Flow of Trade indicator is of time-tested market principles and along with innovative pattern recognition, designed to offer traders a customizable method for more systematized view of supply and demand, along with reversal signals.
Its multi-timeframe analysis can be useful for decision-making and systemizing your trading layout.
Disclaimer
While the Flow of Trade Indicator is a useful tool for analysis, it is important for traders to remember that no single tool can guarantee success.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Do not solely rely on the signals from the Flow of Trade indicator.
The indicator is meant to be used as confluence to an existing strategy.
Pivot Points + Day First Candle Breakout + VWAP + Supertrend This indicator amalgamates several key indicators to provide a comprehensive analysis for trading decisions, including SuperTrend, Pivot Points, VWAP, along with the Day First Candle Breakout strategy.
Key Features:
Day First Candle Breakout: Identifies potential breakout opportunities based on the first candle of the trading day. It utilizes the high and low of the initial trading range to determine entry points.
Timeframe Selection: Allows users to select the timeframe for analyzing the first candle (e.g., 5, 15, or 60 minutes).
Previous Day and Week High/Low: Displays the high and low of the previous day and week to provide additional context for trading decisions and assess the strength of the trend.
Trend Strength Analysis: Indicates whether the current price is above or below the previous day's high or low, signaling a stronger bullish or bearish trend respectively.

Key Features:
Day First Candle Breakout: Analyzes the first candle of the trading day to identify potential breakout scenarios.
Timeframe Selection: Allows users to select the timeframe for analyzing the first candle (e.g., 5, 15, or 60 minutes).
Previous Day and Week High/Low: Displays the high and low of the previous day and week to provide additional context for trading decisions.
Previous Day Trend Strength: Indicates whether the current price is above or below the previous day's high or low, signaling a stronger bullish or bearish trend respectively.
Trading Signals:
Buy Signal: Triggered when the price exceeds the high of the initial trading range after an upward price gap.
Sell Signal: Generated when the price falls below the low of the initial trading range after a downward price gap.
Trend Strength Analysis:
Strong Bullish Trend: If the current price is above the previous day's high, it indicates a stronger bullish trend.
Strong Bearish Trend: If the current price is below the previous day's low, it suggests a stronger bearish trend.
Caveats for Effective Trading:
Extended Trading Ranges: Adjusts support and resistance levels if the initial trading range extends beyond the defined timeframe.
Morning Noise Consideration: Exercises caution during volatile morning sessions to avoid false breakouts and whipsaws.
Pullbacks and Narrow Range Bars: Looks for opportunities during pullbacks or when the price forms narrow range bars to enter trades, reducing the risk of sudden reversals.
VWAP SpiderThe VWAP Spider indicator enhances the conventional Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) analysis by anchoring it to the first candle and incorporating an extensive series of standard deviation (SD) lines, extending up to +8 SDs with additional half-step increments. This configuration provides a more suitable set of lines for identifying support and resistance, distinguishing it from existing VWAP and SD indicators. Its design, featuring color gradients for fills and distinct labels for each line, aims to improve the utility and user experience.
Optimal Timeframes:
It is recommended for use on weekly or monthly resolutions to ensure all price and volume history is included.
Distinctive Features:
The indicator includes a more extensive array of SD lines than typically found in VWAP indicators, enhancing the depth of market analysis.
The visual presentation is optimized with color gradients and clear labeling, facilitating ease of use and integration into trading strategies.
Practical Use of the VWAP Spider:
SD Lines as Support and Resistance : Observe the interactions between the price and the SD lines closely. These can serve as dynamic support and resistance indicators, influencing trading decisions.
Analyzing Historical Price Action : Investigate how the price has historically interacted with the SD lines. Identify which lines have frequently acted as support and resistance in the past, as they will often continue to be revisited.
Strategic Application : Leverage insights from the interactions between price and SD lines to fine-tune entry and exit points. For example, a rebound from an SD line may suggest a strong entry point, while breaching an SD line could indicate a potential exit.
This indicator is freely available and open-source on TradingView for all. It is designed to help traders enhance their market analysis and strategic decision-making.
ka66: Swing/Pivot Point LinesThis indicator draws swing-highs and swing-lows, also called pivot highs and lows.
A swing high is a bar which has a higher-high than its surrounding bars (to the left and the right).
A swing low is a bar which has a lower-low than its surrounding bars (to the left and the right).
A common example of a pivot is Bill Williams' Fractal, which specifies that the centre bar must have a higher high than 2 bars to its left, and 2 bars to its right for a swing high, taking into account 5 bars at a time. Similarly, for a swing low, the centre bar must have a lower low than the 2 bars to its left and right.
This indicator allows configurable adjacent bars as input. Entering 2, means it essentially picks out a Williams Fractal. But you can select 1 (say for higher timeframes), using one 1 bar to the left and right of the centre bar.
The indicator will draw Swing/Pivot High/Low as circles at the same price level as the centre bar, till the next one shows up. Drawing is offset so it starts at the centre bar (the swing bar), showing exactly where the pivot bar is.
There are 2 main uses of pivot points, in various strategies:
Market Structure: to objectively define higher-highs/lows and lower-highs/lows in Trend Analysis.
More generally, to then determine if a trend might reverse, or continue as pivot levels are broken.
Messy pivot structures easily point out ranging markets.
There are a few of these, some closed source, which I don't like, since I think people should generally know what they are trading with, and I want to make sure I understand the logic exactly.
Market Structure (Range) & Internal Liquidity
This indicator will simplify the price-action reading of any trader/investor by decluttering his/her charts from un-important & confusing candles to highlight the true momentum candles which are usually formed by institutional buying/selling .
The indicator will be a good tool in the arsenal of the following styles of Trading/Investing
Smart Money / Liquidity Concepts
Price Action Concepts
Demand & Supply Concepts
Support & Resistance Concepts
UNIQUE FEATURES:
1. Market Structure - Range & Internal Liquidity:
Unlike other liquidity indicators, this indicator only highlights liquidity levels of significant importance. Not every intermediate high & low in a chart are worthy of noticing, hence by enabling the 'Swings' & 'Range (BoS)' feature in the indicator settings, the structure highs and lows (external liquidity) in a chart can be identified.
Any other liquidity levels within a market range (Range between structural High & Low) is known as internal liquidity which price targets to collect enough orders before heading towards the external liquidity levels.
2. Gaps (Fair Value Gaps / Imbalance):
Not every imbalance / gap between candles are important & trade-worthy. This feature of the indicator is different from the other widely available imbalance indicators & only highlights gaps formed by true momentum candles. Gaps between unimportant inside bars are not highlighted, as these bars occur in the absence of momentum.
3. True Price Action:
Looking at the two charts below, we can clearly observe the difference between price action of a confusing normal chart & the simplified price action highlighted by the indicator. This feature declutters the charts by only highlighting the candles a trader / investor should notice in a chart.
This feature when used in confluence with the liquidity levels feature & gap feature of the indicator, helps identify the true demand & supply zones (order blocks) in a chart.
Before
After
4. Zig Zag Lines:
This unique feature which is useful to Identify & Backtest different entry types taught by Smart Money Traders . This feature helps the trader understand the True Fractal Nature of price. This can also be seen as an alternate to the default line chart feature.
Examples of Entry Types taken by Smart Money Traders
ADDITIONAL FEATURES:
(These features are essential addons to trade liquidity. However, these are derived from publicly available indicators from the Tradingview library, but with a different interpretation for a better visualization of charts & or to time better trade entries without cluttering the charts)
a. Inside Bar & Outside Bars:
Identify not just a single Inside Bar as highlighted by other indicators, but to highlight a series of candles which are within a master candle range and are exhibiting unimportant sideways price action.
Outside Bars only relevant to momentum candles are highlighted, ignoring candles that occur within a master candle range. Highs & Lows of such Outside Bars are used by aggressive traders to identify liquidity levels in the charts.
b. Highs & Lows of previous Monthly / Weekly / Daily & Hourly Candles:
This feature draws Highs & Lows of previous Monthly / Weekly / Daily & Hourly Candles on the extreme right hand side of the chart to keep the charts clean.
Additionally for Hourly time frame, the indicator includes a setting to select the hourly candle time frame (60 min / 75 min / 240 min), which are personal and different for each trader.
UNDERLYING CONCEPT:
In the image below we see how a large majority of Traders / Investors incorrectly mark Structure markings, mistaking a raid of internal liquidity as a Break of Structure, thereby taking trades opposite to the broader trend of the markets
However, this indicator has a higher accuracy of identifying the correct price structure by only marking a structure high or low, when a subsequently opposite side liquidity is taken/raided. Further the broader trend of the markets can be easily identified by looking as to which side the Break of Structure has happened. (This is visible in the indicator in the form of 'Range' feature, so if a Range High is broken then it is understood to be in an uptrend & vice versa)
The underlying core functionality of the indicator is best displayed by the image below
USECASE OF THE INDICATOR:
Before taking any Buying/Selling position in the markets, a Trader / Investor must analyze the price action on the following parameters
HTF & LTF Trend Identification (To judge if trade is Pro-Trend or Counter-Trend)
Is Price at a High Probability Area of Interest?
Is Price satisfying the trade entry conditions?
Let us see how this indicator can be used as a complete trading system in itself and addresses each of the above parameters
Disclaimer: Illustrations shown below are just for understanding the features of the indicator & does not guarantee profitability. Every trader must back test their setups to arrive at a setup with an edge (positive expectancy) before they start actively trading the setup.
1. HTF & LTF Trend Identification (Pro-Trend / Counter-Trend) using 'Range (BoS)' feature of the indicator
Let's assume a Day Trader, uses hourly chart (75 min) to frame his Higher Time Frame (HTF) ideas & 15min charts (LTF) for trade entries
Looking at the chart below the Trader concludes that the HTF has most recently broken the structure to the downside and is considered Bearish till price action is below the range high of 48600 levels. It can also be concluded that the price is currently in a Bullish retracement.
The Trader can choose to take both Pro-Trend or Counter-Trend Trades, timing the trade entries using the LTF charts.
Looking at the LTF chart below, it is evident that price on LTF has also broken structure to the downside and is now aligned with the HTF Bearish Trend. The Trader will now look to get into short trades, to take trades both in line with HTF & LTF trend.
2. Let's identify if Price is at a High Probability Area of Interest, using either single or combination of the 'Swings' / 'Gaps' / 'Outside Bars' / 'HL of previous M,W,D, H candles' features of the indicator
Definition of High Probability Level / Area differs from each Traders perspective depending upon which of the Trading Styles (mentioned in the beginning) does one use.
Smart Money Traders
SMC Traders are known to get into trades early and their high R:R trades are taken mostly at a High Probability Area of Interest which are identified by them on HTF, by looking for candles with imbalance (gaps) & or candles which have taken out a previous liquidity and then having creating imbalance (gaps).
Also Turtle Soups is one of the favorite setups for SMC traders, where a trader enters a trade on LTF (typically 1 min/3min & 5min) after grabbing HTF liquidity lying at H/L of outside bar / previous monthly, weekly, daily or hourly candles.
Demand & Supply Traders
Some of the Best Demand & Supply Traders have the patience to wait for trades and take trades at the extreme Demand & Supply Zones within a market Range.
As illustrated below, the extreme hourly supply zone just below the structure high, which has the confluence of imbalance and Bearish HTF confirmation resulted in a good R:R trade.
Price Action Traders & Support & Resistance Traders
From the illustration below we can see how the 15 min Range breakdown confirms the breakdown of the Inverted Cup Pattern for Price Action Traders & Support & Resistance Traders using the same area of breakdown as the new Resistance to enter Short trades
3. Let's identify if Price is satisfying the Trade Entry Conditions using the 'Zig-Zag Lines' feature
Statistics say that majority (> 80%) of Traders blow up their accounts multiple times or completely give up and never achieve profitability.
One of the primary reasons for this is Traders punching trades randomly and without having proper Setup or rules for entering Trades.
Also in order to arrive at rules or execute the different entry models (couple of examples highlighted earlier) taught by different Trainers, a Trader needs to learn to visualize charts in a similar format to what the trainers are teaching.
The Zig-Zag lines feature is a form of line chart that joins the swing high points to the swing low points on the chart to represent the True Price action & a proper fractal nature of the markets, unlike the line chart which is formed by only by joining the closing value of each candle.
From the image below we can see that the Zig-Zag lines feature eliminates the randomness visible in the line chart and is a more smoother chart. Using this feature one can back test the various entry models widely available on the internet or arrive at a user specific model which he/she is comfortable with.
CONCLUSION:
Trading with a deeper understanding of Price Action allows a Trader/Investor to enter or exit trades with ease. Price Action trading allows individuals to keep their charts clean and stay away from the other lagging technical indicators and enter trades much earlier than other technical indicators.
This indicator attempts in simplifying the understanding of price action for every one and identify potential high probability areas / levels where one should enter / exit trades.
This indicator will be an important tool in the arsenal of any Trader / Investor to take better informed trades, however it does not guarantee profitability of a Trader, due to the randomness of the markets & external factors that influence each trader.

Dynamic Trailing (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Dynamic Trailing (Zeiierman) indicator enhances the traditional SuperTrend approach by providing a more nuanced, adaptable tool for trend analysis and market volatility assessment. It combines techniques to identify dynamic support and resistance levels, trend directions, and market volatility. By integrating the Average True Range (ATR) with a unique multiplier system and smoothing mechanisms, this indicator offers a nuanced approach to trend-following strategies, making it a valuable asset for traders looking to leverage SuperTrend methodologies with additional insights into market dynamics.
█ How It Works
At its core, this indicator builds on the traditional SuperTrend formula by utilizing a modified ATR calculation to define the deviation for dynamic support and resistance levels. These levels are dynamically adjusted based on market volatility. The innovation lies in the addition of the Hull Moving Average (HMA) and the Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA) for an enhanced smoothing effect, making the indicator's trend signals more reliable and less prone to market noise. The trend direction is determined by comparing the closing price with the dynamic levels, facilitating clear bullish or bearish signals.
The indicator incorporates a 'Supertrend' function, which uses the dynamic levels and the price’s position relative to them to determine the trend direction. This determination is visualized through color-coded lines and a cloud zone, which expands or contracts based on the ATR and a user-defined width setting, illustrating the market's volatility and trend strength.
ATR Calculation: Utilizes the Average True Range (ATR) to measure market volatility. The ATR is a cornerstone of this indicator, helping to dynamically adjust the support and resistance levels according to the market’s changing conditions.
Supertrend Calculation: Implements a supertrend formula that combines the ATR with user-defined multipliers to plot potential trend directions. This feature helps in identifying whether the market is in an uptrend or downtrend, offering visual cues for potential reversals.
TEMA Calculation: Employs the Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA) through a Hull Moving Average (HMA) calculation to smooth out price data. This smoothing process helps in reducing market noise and makes the trend direction clearer.
Dynamic Support and Resistance: Calculates dynamic support and resistance levels by applying a deviation (derived from the ATR and user-defined multiplier) to the smoothed price data. These levels adapt to market conditions, providing areas where price might experience support or resistance.
Trend and Cloud Calculation: Determines the overall trend direction and plots a 'Cloud' zone around it, which adjusts in width based on the ATR and a user-defined cloud width setting. This cloud acts as a visual buffer, indicating the strength and stability of the current trend.
█ How to Use
Trend Identification: The primary function of this indicator is to help traders quickly identify the prevailing market trend. A change in the color of the dynamic trailing line or its position relative to the price can signal potential trend reversals.
Dynamic Support and Resistance: Unlike static levels, the dynamic levels adjust with market conditions, providing current areas where the price might experience support or resistance.

█ Settings
Mult (Multiplier): Adjusts the multiplier for the ATR calculation, affecting the deviation distance for support and resistance levels. Higher values decrease sensitivity and vice versa.
Len (Length): Sets the period for the HMA in the TEMA calculation, influencing the indicator's responsiveness to price changes.
Smoothness: Determines the smoothness of the dynamic support and resistance lines by setting the SMA length. Higher values result in smoother lines.
Cloud Width : Modifies the width of the cloud, providing a visual representation of market volatility.
Color Settings (upcol and dncol): Allows users to customize the colors of the indicator's lines and cloud, aiding in visual trend identification.
