Choch Pattern Levels [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Choch Pattern Levels indicator automatically detects Change of Character (CHoCH) shifts in market structure — crucial moments that often signal early trend reversals or major directional transitions. It plots the structural break level, visualizes the pattern zone with triangle overlays, and tracks delta volume to help traders assess the strength behind each move.
🔵 CONCEPTS
CHoCH Pattern: A bullish CHoCH forms when price breaks a previous swing high after a swing low, while a bearish CHoCH appears when price breaks a swing low after a prior swing high.
Break Level Mapping: The indicator identifies the highest or lowest point between the pivot and the breakout, marking it with a clean horizontal level where price often reacts.
Delta Volume Tracking: Net bullish or bearish volume is accumulated between the pivot and the breakout, revealing the momentum and conviction behind each CHoCH.
Chart Clean-Up: If price later closes through the CHoCH level, the zone is automatically removed to maintain clarity and focus on active setups only.
🔵 FEATURES
Automatic CHoCH pattern detection using pivot-based logic.
Triangle shapes show structure break: pivot → breakout → internal high/low.
Horizontal level marks the structural zone with a ◯ symbol.
Optional delta volume label with directional sign (+/−).
Green visuals for bullish CHoCHs, red for bearish.
Fully auto-cleaning invalidated levels to reduce clutter.
Clean organization of all lines, labels, and overlays.
User-defined Length input to adjust pivot sensitivity.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use CHoCH levels as early trend reversal zones or confirmation signals.
Treat bullish CHoCHs as support zones, bearish CHoCHs as resistance.
Look for high delta volume to validate the strength behind each CHoCH.
Combine with other BigBeluga tools like supply/demand, FVGs, or liquidity maps for confluence.
Adjust pivot Length based on your strategy — shorter for intraday, longer for swing trading.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Choch Pattern Levels highlights key structural breaks that can mark the start of new trends. By combining precise break detection with volume analytics and automatic cleanup, it provides actionable insights into the true intent behind price moves — giving traders a clean edge in spotting early reversals and key reaction zones.

Zone of Interest (ZOI) - FractalsZone of Interest (ZOI) with Breakout Start/Exit Alerts
Overview
The Zone of Interest (ZOI) indicator identifies demand and supply zones based on fractal pivots and provides breakout alerts with Start/Exit signals for precise entry and exit interpretation.
Unlike basic breakout indicators that send alerts on every bar, this script ensures clean alerts only at breakout start and breakout end, making it ideal for traders who want clarity without alert spam.
Key Features
✔ Demand & Supply Zones:
Zones created from fractal pivots (swing highs/lows).
Auto-extend zones until expiry.
✔ Breakout Detection:
Detects bullish (price breaks above demand) and bearish (price breaks below supply) breakouts.
✔ Start & Exit Labels:
START LONG when bullish breakout begins.
EXIT LONG when bullish trend ends.
START SHORT when bearish breakout begins.
EXIT SHORT when bearish trend ends.
✔ Clean Alerts:
Alerts fire only on START and EXIT (not every bar).
✔ Visual Cues:
Triangles for every breakout bar (optional visual reference).
Green/Red background shading during active breakout phase.
Inputs
Input - Description
Fractal Length - Number of bars to confirm a fractal pivot.
Zone Expiry (Bars) - Maximum bars before a zone is removed.
Min Distance Between Zones (%) - Prevents overlapping zones by comparing midpoints.
How It Works
Uses fractal pivots to identify swing highs and lows.
Creates Supply Zones (red) from pivot highs and Demand Zones (green) from pivot lows.
Extends zones to the right until expiry or price action invalidates them.
Breakouts occur when price closes beyond the most recent zone boundary.
Tracks breakout phases and fires alerts only at Start and Exit.
✅ Example: How to Use
Suppose you're analyzing XAU/USD on a 15-minute chart:
Step 1: A green demand zone forms at 3344 – 3360.
Step 2: Price pulls back into the zone and starts moving higher.
Step 3: When price closes above 3360, the indicator triggers START LONG and shades the background green.
Step 4: You ride the trend while price remains above the zone.
Step 5: If price later falls back below 3360, an EXIT LONG label appears, and an alert fires.
✅ This helps you avoid spam alerts and focus on key breakout events.
Best Practices
Works well on 15m and higher timeframes.
Combine with trend confirmation (EMA, Supertrend) for better accuracy.
Designed for manual trading and alert-based setups, not automation.
Smart MTF S/R Levels[BullByte]
Smart MTF S/R Levels
Introduction & Motivation
Support and Resistance (S/R) levels are the backbone of technical analysis. However, most traders face two major challenges:
Manual S/R Marking: Drawing S/R levels by hand is time-consuming, subjective, and often inconsistent.
Multi-Timeframe Blind Spots: Key S/R levels from higher or lower timeframes are often missed, leading to surprise reversals or missed opportunities.
Smart MTF S/R Levels was created to solve these problems. It is a fully automated, multi-timeframe, multi-method S/R detection and visualization tool, designed to give traders a complete, objective, and actionable view of the market’s most important price zones.
What Makes This Indicator Unique?
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Simultaneously analyzes up to three user-selected timeframes, ensuring you never miss a critical S/R level from any timeframe.
Multi-Method Confluence: Integrates several respected S/R detection methods—Swings, Pivots, Fibonacci, Order Blocks, and Volume Profile—into a single, unified system.
Zone Clustering: Automatically merges nearby levels into “zones” to reduce clutter and highlight areas of true market consensus.
Confluence Scoring: Each zone is scored by the number of methods and timeframes in agreement, helping you instantly spot the most significant S/R areas.
Reaction Counting: Tracks how many times price has recently interacted with each zone, providing a real-world measure of its importance.
Customizable Dashboard: A real-time, on-chart table summarizes all key S/R zones, their origins, confluence, and proximity to price.
Smart Alerts: Get notified when price approaches high-confluence zones, so you never miss a critical trading opportunity.
Why Should a Trader Use This?
Objectivity: Removes subjectivity from S/R analysis by using algorithmic detection and clustering.
Efficiency: Saves hours of manual charting and reduces analysis fatigue.
Comprehensiveness: Ensures you are always aware of the most relevant S/R zones, regardless of your trading timeframe.
Actionability: The dashboard and alerts make it easy to act on the most important levels, improving trade timing and risk management.
Adaptability: Works for all asset classes (stocks, forex, crypto, futures) and all trading styles (scalping, swing, position).
The Gap This Indicator Fills
Most S/R indicators focus on a single method or timeframe, leading to incomplete analysis. Manual S/R marking is error-prone and inconsistent. This indicator fills the gap by:
Automating S/R detection across multiple timeframes and methods
Objectively scoring and ranking zones by confluence and reaction
Presenting all this information in a clear, actionable dashboard
How Does It Work? (Technical Logic)
1. Level Detection
For each selected timeframe, the script detects S/R levels using:
SW (Swing High/Low): Recent price pivots where reversals occurred.
Pivot: Classic floor trader pivots (P, S1, R1).
Fib (Fibonacci): Key retracement levels (0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786) over the last 50 bars.
Bull OB / Bear OB: Institutional price zones based on bullish/bearish engulfing patterns.
VWAP / POC: Volume Weighted Average Price and Point of Control over the last 50 bars.
2. Level Clustering
Levels within a user-defined % distance are merged into a single “zone.”
Each zone records which methods and timeframes contributed to it.
3. Confluence & Reaction Scoring
Confluence: The number of unique methods/timeframes in agreement for a zone.
Reactions: The number of times price has touched or reversed at the zone in the recent past (user-defined lookback).
4. Filtering & Sorting
Only zones within a user-defined % of the current price are shown (to focus on actionable areas).
Zones can be sorted by confluence, reaction count, or proximity to price.
5. Visualization
Zones: Shaded boxes on the chart (green for support, red for resistance, blue for mixed).
Lines: Mark the exact level of each zone.
Labels: Show level, methods by timeframe (e.g., 15m (3 SW), 30m (1 VWAP)), and (if applicable) Fibonacci ratios.
Dashboard Table: Lists all nearby zones with full details.
6. Alerts
Optional alerts trigger when price approaches a zone with confluence above a user-set threshold.

Abbreviations Used
SW = Swing High/Low (recent price pivots where reversals occurred)
Fib = Fibonacci Level (key retracement levels such as 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786)
VWAP = Volume Weighted Average Price (price level weighted by volume)
POC = Point of Control (price level with the highest traded volume)
Bull OB = Bullish Order Block (institutional support zone from bullish price action)
Bear OB = Bearish Order Block (institutional resistance zone from bearish price action)
Pivot = Pivot Point (classic floor trader pivots: P, S1, R1)
These abbreviations appear in the dashboard and chart labels for clarity.
Example: How to Read the Dashboard and Labels (from the chart above)
Suppose you are trading BTCUSDT on a 15-minute chart. The dashboard at the top right shows several S/R zones, each with a breakdown of which timeframes and methods contributed to their detection:
Resistance zone at 119257.11:
The dashboard shows:
5m (1 SW), 15m (2 SW), 1h (3 SW)
This means the level 119257.11 was identified as a resistance zone by one swing high (SW) on the 5-minute timeframe, two swing highs on the 15-minute timeframe, and three swing highs on the 1-hour timeframe. The confluence score is 6 (total number of method/timeframe hits), and there has been 1 recent price reaction at this level. This suggests 119257.11 is a strong resistance zone, confirmed by multiple swing highs across all selected timeframes.
Mixed zone at 118767.97:
The dashboard shows:
5m (2 SW), 15m (2 SW)
This means the level 118767.97 was identified by two swing points on both the 5-minute and 15-minute timeframes. The confluence score is 4, and there have been 19 recent price reactions at this level, indicating it is a highly reactive zone.
Support zone at 117411.35:
The dashboard shows:
5m (2 SW), 1h (2 SW)
This means the level 117411.35 was identified as a support zone by two swing lows on the 5-minute timeframe and two swing lows on the 1-hour timeframe. The confluence score is 4, and there have been 2 recent price reactions at this level.
Mixed zone at 118291.45:
The dashboard shows:
15m (1 SW, 1 VWAP), 5m (1 VWAP), 1h (1 VWAP)
This means the level 118291.45 was identified by a swing and VWAP on the 15-minute timeframe, and by VWAP on both the 5-minute and 1-hour timeframes. The confluence score is 4, and there have been 12 recent price reactions at this level.
Support zone at 117103.10:
The dashboard shows:
15m (1 SW), 1h (1 SW)
This means the level 117103.10 was identified by a single swing low on both the 15-minute and 1-hour timeframes. The confluence score is 2, and there have been no recent price reactions at this level.
Resistance zone at 117899.33:
The dashboard shows:
5m (1 SW)
This means the level 117899.33 was identified by a single swing high on the 5-minute timeframe. The confluence score is 1, and there have been no recent price reactions at this level.
How to use this:
Zones with higher confluence (more methods and timeframes in agreement) and more recent reactions are generally more significant. For example, the resistance at 119257.11 is much stronger than the resistance at 117899.33, and the mixed zone at 118767.97 has shown the most recent price reactions, making it a key area to watch for potential reversals or breakouts.
Tip:
“SW” stands for Swing High/Low, and “VWAP” stands for Volume Weighted Average Price.
The format 15m (2 SW) means two swing points were detected on the 15-minute timeframe.
Best Practices & Recommendations
Use with Other Tools: This indicator is most powerful when combined with your own price action analysis and risk management.
Adjust Settings: Experiment with timeframes, clustering, and methods to suit your trading style and the asset’s volatility.
Watch for High Confluence: Zones with higher confluence and more reactions are generally more significant.
Limitations
No Future Prediction: The indicator does not predict future price movement; it highlights areas where price is statistically more likely to react.
Not a Standalone System: Should be used as part of a broader trading plan.
Historical Data: Reaction counts are based on historical price action and may not always repeat.
Disclaimer
This indicator is a technical analysis tool and does not constitute financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any asset. Trading involves risk, and past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use proper risk management and consult a financial advisor if needed.
VWAP Volume Profile [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
VWAP Volume Profile is an advanced hybrid of the VWAP and volume profile concepts. It visualizes how volume accumulates relative to VWAP movement—separating rising (+VWAP) and declining (−VWAP) activity into two mirrored horizontal profiles. It highlights the dominant price bins (POCs) where volume peaked during each directional phase, helping traders spot hidden accumulation or distribution zones.
🔵 CONCEPTS
VWAP-Driven Profiling: Unlike standard volume profiles, this tool segments volume based on VWAP movement—accumulating positive or negative volume depending on VWAP slope.
Dual-Sided Profiles: Profiles expand horizontally to the right of price. Separate bins show rising (+) and falling (−) VWAP volume.
Bin Logic: Volume is accumulated into defined horizontal bins based on VWAP’s position relative to price ranges.
Gradient Coloring: Volume bars are colored with a dynamic gradient to emphasize intensity and direction.
POC Highlighting: The highest-volume bin in each profile type (+/-) is marked with a transparent box and label.
Contextual VWAP Line: VWAP is plotted and dynamically colored (green = rising, orange = falling) for instant trend context.
Candle Overlay: Price candles are recolored to match the VWAP slope for full visual integration.
🔵 FEATURES
Dual-sided horizontal volume profiles based on VWAP slope.
Supports rising VWAP , falling VWAP , or both simultaneously.
Customizable number of bins and lookback period.
Dynamically colored VWAP line to show rising/falling bias.
POC detection and labeling with volume values for +VWAP and −VWAP.
Candlesticks are recolored to match VWAP bias for intuitive momentum tracking.
Optional background boxes with customizable styling.
Adaptive volume scaling to normalize bar length across markets.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use POC zones to identify high-volume consolidation areas and potential support/resistance levels.
Watch for shifts in VWAP direction and observe how volume builds differently during uptrends and downtrends.
Use the gradient profile shape to detect accumulation (widening volume below price) or distribution (above price).
Use candle coloring for real-time confirmation of VWAP bias.
Adjust the profile period or bin count to fit your trading style (e.g., intraday scalping or swing trading).
🔵 CONCLUSION
VWAP Volume Profile merges two essential concepts—volume and VWAP—into a single, high-precision tool. By visualizing how volume behaves in relation to VWAP movement, it uncovers hidden dynamics often missed by traditional profiles. Perfect for intraday and swing traders who want a more nuanced read on market structure, trend strength, and volume flow.
Ultimate Market Structure [Alpha Extract]Ultimate Market Structure
A comprehensive market structure analysis tool that combines advanced swing point detection, imbalance zone identification, and intelligent break analysis to identify high-probability trading opportunities.Utilizing a sophisticated trend scoring system, this indicator classifies market conditions and provides clear signals for structure breaks, directional changes, and fair value gap detection with institutional-grade precision.
🔶 Advanced Swing Point Detection
Identifies pivot highs and lows using configurable lookback periods with optional close-based analysis for cleaner signals. The system automatically labels swing points as Higher Highs (HH), Lower Highs (LH), Higher Lows (HL), and Lower Lows (LL) while providing advanced classifications including "rising_high", "falling_high", "rising_low", "falling_low", "peak_high", and "valley_low" for nuanced market analysis.
swingHighPrice = useClosesForStructure ? ta.pivothigh(close, swingLength, swingLength) : ta.pivothigh(high, swingLength, swingLength)
swingLowPrice = useClosesForStructure ? ta.pivotlow(close, swingLength, swingLength) : ta.pivotlow(low, swingLength, swingLength)
classification = classifyStructurePoint(structureHighPrice, upperStructure, true)
significance = calculateSignificance(structureHighPrice, upperStructure, true)
🔶 Significance Scoring System
Each structure point receives a significance level on a 1-5 scale based on its distance from previous points, helping prioritize the most important levels. This intelligent scoring system ensures traders focus on the most meaningful structure breaks while filtering out minor noise.
🔶 Comprehensive Trend Analysis
Calculates momentum, strength, direction, and confidence levels using volatility-normalized price changes and multi-timeframe correlation. The system provides real-time trend state tracking with bullish (+1), bearish (-1), or neutral (0) direction assessment and 0-100 confidence scoring.
// Calculate trend momentum using rate of change and volatility
calculateTrendMomentum(lookback) =>
priceChange = (close - close ) / close * 100
avgVolatility = ta.atr(lookback) / close * 100
momentum = priceChange / (avgVolatility + 0.0001)
momentum
// Calculate trend strength using multiple timeframe correlation
calculateTrendStrength(shortPeriod, longPeriod) =>
shortMA = ta.sma(close, shortPeriod)
longMA = ta.sma(close, longPeriod)
separation = math.abs(shortMA - longMA) / longMA * 100
strength = separation * slopeAlignment
❓How It Works
🔶 Imbalance Zone Detection
Identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) between consecutive candles where price gaps create unfilled areas. These zones are displayed as semi-transparent boxes with optional center line mitigation tracking, highlighting potential support and resistance levels where institutional players often react.
// Detect Fair Value Gaps
detectPriceImbalance() =>
currentHigh = high
currentLow = low
refHigh = high
refLow = low
if currentOpen > currentClose
if currentHigh - refLow < 0
upperBound = currentClose - (currentClose - refLow)
lowerBound = currentClose - (currentClose - currentHigh)
centerPoint = (upperBound + lowerBound) / 2
newZone = ImbalanceZone.new(
zoneBox = box.new(bar_index, upperBound, rightEdge, lowerBound,
bgcolor=bullishImbalanceColor, border_color=hiddenColor)
)
🔶 Structure Break Analysis
Determines Break of Structure (BOS) for trend continuation and Directional Change (DC) for trend reversals with advanced classification as "continuation", "reversal", or "neutral". The system compares pre-trend and post-trend states for each break, providing comprehensive trend change momentum analysis.
🔶 Intelligent Zone Management
Features partial mitigation tracking when price enters but doesn't fully fill zones, with automatic zone boundary adjustment during partial fills. Smart array management keeps only recent structure points for optimal performance while preventing duplicate signals from the same level.
🔶 Liquidity Zone Detection
Automatically identifies potential liquidity zones at key structure points for institutional trading analysis. The system tracks broken structure points and provides adaptive zone extension with configurable time-based limits for imbalance areas.
🔶 Visual Structure Mapping
Provides clear visual indicators including swing labels with color-coded significance levels, dashed lines connecting break points with BOS/DC labels, and break signals for continuation and reversal patterns. The adaptive zones feature smart management with automatic mitigation tracking.
🔶 Market Structure Interpretation
HH/HL patterns indicate bullish market structure with trend continuation likelihood, while LH/LL patterns signal bearish structure with downtrend continuation expected. BOS signals represent structure breaks in trend direction for continuation opportunities, while DC signals warn of potential reversals.
🔶 Performance Optimization
Automatic cleanup of old structure points (keeps last 8 points), recent break tracking (keeps last 5 break events), and efficient array management ensure smooth performance across all timeframes and market conditions.
Why Choose Ultimate Market Structure ?
This indicator provides traders with institutional-grade market structure analysis, combining multiple analytical approaches into one comprehensive tool. By identifying key structure levels, imbalance zones, and break patterns with advanced significance scoring, it helps traders understand market dynamics and position themselves for high-probability trade setups in alignment with smart money concepts. The sophisticated trend scoring system and intelligent zone management make it an essential tool for any serious trader looking to decode market structure with precision and confidence.
Active PMI Support/Resistance Levels [EdgeTerminal]The PMI Support & Resistance indicator revolutionizes traditional technical analysis by using Pointwise Mutual Information (PMI) - a statistical measure from information theory - to objectively identify support and resistance levels. Unlike conventional methods that rely on visual pattern recognition, this indicator provides mathematically rigorous, quantifiable evidence of price levels where significant market activity occurs.
- The Mathematical Foundation: Pointwise Mutual Information
Pointwise Mutual Information measures how much more likely two events are to occur together compared to if they were statistically independent. In our context:
Event A: Volume spikes occurring (high trading activity)
Event B: Price being at specific levels
The PMI formula calculates: PMI = log(P(A,B) / (P(A) × P(B)))
Where:
P(A,B) = Probability of volume spikes occurring at specific price levels
P(A) = Probability of volume spikes occurring anywhere
P(B) = Probability of price being at specific levels
High PMI scores indicate that volume spikes and certain price levels co-occur much more frequently than random chance would predict, revealing genuine support and resistance zones.
- Why PMI Outperforms Traditional Methods
Subjective interpretation: What one trader sees as significant, another might ignore
Confirmation bias: Tendency to see patterns that confirm existing beliefs
Inconsistent criteria: No standardized definition of "significant" volume or price action
Static analysis: Doesn't adapt to changing market conditions
No strength measurement: Can't quantify how "strong" a level truly is
PMI Advantages:
✅ Objective & Quantifiable: Mathematical proof of significance, not visual guesswork
✅ Statistical Rigor: Levels backed by information theory and probability
✅ Strength Scoring: PMI scores rank levels by statistical significance
✅ Adaptive: Automatically adjusts to different market volatility regimes
✅ Eliminates Bias: Computer-calculated, removing human interpretation errors
✅ Market Structure Aware: Reveals the underlying order flow concentrations

- Key Warning Signs & What to Watch For
Red Flags:
🚨 Very Low PMI Scores (<0.3): Weak statistical significance, avoid trading
🚨 No Volume Confirmation: PMI level without recent volume spikes may be stale
🚨 Overcrowded Levels: Too many levels close together suggests poor parameter tuning
🚨 Outdated Levels: Historical traces are reference only, not tradeable
Optimization Tips:
✅ Regular Recalibration: Adjust parameters monthly based on market regime changes
✅ Volume Context: Always check for recent volume activity at PMI levels
✅ Multiple Timeframes: Confirm PMI levels across different timeframes
✅ Market Conditions: Higher thresholds during high volatility periods
Interpreting PMI Scores
PMI Score Ranges:
0.5-1.0: Moderate statistical significance, proceed with caution
1.0-1.5: Good significance, reliable for most trading strategies
1.5-2.0: Strong significance, high-confidence trade setups
2.0+: Very strong significance, institutional-grade levels
Historical Context: The historical trace system shows how support and resistance evolve over time. When current levels align with multiple historical traces, it indicates persistent market memory at those prices, significantly increasing the level's reliability.
Non-Lagging Longevity Zones [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
A clean, non-lagging system for identifying price zones that persist over time—ranking them visually based on how long they survive without being invalidated.
Non-Lagging Longevity Zones uses non-lagging pivots to automatically build upper and lower zones that reflect key resistance and support. These zones are kept alive as long as price respects them and are instantly removed when invalidated. The indicator assigns a unique lifespan label to each zone in Days (D), Months (M), or Years (Y), providing instant context for historical relevance.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Non-Lag Pivot Detection: Detects upper and lower pivots using non-lagging swing identification (highest/lowest over length period).
h = ta.highest(len)
l = ta.lowest(len)
high_pivot = high == h and high < h
low_pivot = low == l and low > l
Longevity Ranking: Zones are preserved as long as price doesn't breach them. Levels that remain intact grow in visual intensity.
Time-Based Weighting: Each zone is labeled with its lifespan in days , emphasizing how long it has survived.
duration = last_bar_index - start
days_ = int(duration*(timeframe.in_seconds("")/60/60/24))
days = days_ >= 365 ? int(days_ / 365) : days_ >= 30 ? int(days_ / 30) : days_
marker = days_ >= 365 ? " Y" : days_ >= 30 ? " M" : " D"
Dynamic Coloring: Older zones are drawn with stronger fill, while newer ones appear fainter—making it easy to assess significance.
Self-Cleaning Logic: If price invalidates a zone, it’s instantly removed, keeping the chart clean and focused.

Volumatic Support/Resistance Levels [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
A smart volume-powered tool for identifying key support and resistance zones—enhanced with real-time volume histogram fills and high-volume markers.
Volumatic Support/Resistance Levels detects structural levels from swing highs and lows, and wraps them in dynamic histograms that reflect the relative volume strength around those zones. It highlights the strongest price levels not just by structure—but by the weight of market participation.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Price Zones: Support and resistance levels are drawn from recent price pivots, while volume is used to visually enhance these zones with filled histograms and highlight moments of peak activity using markers.
Histogram Fill = Activity Zone: The width and intensity of each filled zone adjusts to recent volume bursts.
High-Volume Alerts: Circle markers highlight moments of volume dominance directly on the levels—revealing pressure points of support/resistance.
Clean Visual Encoding: Red = resistance zones, green = support zones, orange = high-volume bars.
🔵 FEATURES
Detects pivot-based resistance (highs) and support (lows) using a customizable range length.
Wraps these levels in volume-weighted bands that expand/contract based on percentile volume.
Color fill intensity increases with rising volume pressure, creating a live histogram feel.
When volume > user-defined threshold , the indicator adds circle markers at the top and bottom of that price level zone.
Bar coloring highlights the candles that generated this high-volume behavior (orange by default).
Adjustable settings for all thresholds and colors, so traders can dial in volume sensitivity.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Identify volume-confirmed resistance and support zones for potential reversal or breakout setups.
Focus on levels with intense histogram fill and circle markers —they indicate strong participation.
Use bar coloring to track when key activity started and align it with broader market context.
Works well in combination with order blocks, trend indicators, or liquidity zones.
Ideal for day traders, scalpers, and volume-sensitive setups.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Volumatic Support/Resistance Levels elevates traditional support and resistance logic by anchoring it in volume context. Instead of relying solely on price action, it gives traders insight into where real conviction lies—by mapping how aggressively the market defended or rejected key levels. It's a visual, reactive, and volume-conscious upgrade to your structural toolkit.
Future is hereOverview
"Future is Here" is an original, multi-faceted Pine Script indicator designed to provide traders with a comprehensive toolset for identifying high-probability trading opportunities. By integrating volatility-based entry zones, trend-based price targets, momentum confirmation, dynamic support/resistance levels, and risk-reward ratio (RRR) calculations, this indicator offers a cohesive and actionable trading framework. Each feature is carefully designed to complement the others, ensuring a synergistic approach that enhances decision-making across various market conditions. This script is unique in its ability to combine these elements into a single, streamlined interface with clear visual cues and customizable alerts, making it suitable for both novice and experienced traders.
Key Features and How They Work Together
Volatility-Based Entry Zones
Purpose: Identifies overbought and oversold conditions using a volatility-adjusted moving average, helping traders spot potential reversal zones.
Mechanism: Utilizes a user-defined volatility length and multiplier to calculate dynamic overbought/oversold thresholds based on the standard deviation of price. Crossovers and crossunders of these levels trigger "Buy Zone" or "Sell Zone" labels.
Synergy: These zones act as the foundation for entry signals, which are later confirmed by momentum and trend filters to reduce false signals.
Trend-Based Price Targets
Purpose: Projects potential price targets based on the prevailing trend, giving traders clear objectives for profit-taking.
Mechanism: Combines a fast and slow moving average to determine trend direction, then calculates target prices using a multiplier of the price deviation from the slow MA. Labels display bullish or bearish targets when the fast MA crosses the slow MA.
Synergy: Works in tandem with entry zones and momentum signals to align targets with market conditions, ensuring traders aim for realistic price levels supported by trend strength.
Momentum Confirmation
Purpose: Validates entry signals by assessing momentum strength, filtering out weak setups.
Mechanism: Uses the momentum indicator to detect bullish or bearish momentum crossovers, labeling them as "Strong" or "Weak" based on a comparison with a smoothed momentum average.
Synergy: Enhances the reliability of buy/sell signals by ensuring momentum aligns with volatility zones and trend direction, reducing the risk of premature entries.
Dynamic Support/Resistance Levels
Purpose: Highlights key price levels where the market is likely to react, aiding in trade planning and risk management.
Mechanism: Detects pivot highs and lows over a user-defined lookback period, drawing horizontal lines for the most recent support and resistance levels (limited to two each for clarity). Labels mark these levels with price values.
Synergy: Complements entry zones and price targets by providing context for potential reversal or continuation points, helping traders set logical stop-losses or take-profits.
Buy/Sell Signals with Risk-Reward Ratios
Purpose: Generates precise buy/sell signals with integrated take-profit (TP), stop-loss (SL), and RRR calculations for disciplined trading.
Mechanism: Combines volatility zone crossovers, trend confirmation, and positive momentum to trigger signals. ATR-based TP and SL levels are calculated, and the RRR is displayed in labels for quick assessment.
Synergy: This feature ties together all previous components, ensuring signals are only generated when volatility, trend, and momentum align, while providing clear risk-reward metrics for trade evaluation.
Customizable Alerts
Purpose: Enables traders to stay informed of trading opportunities without constant chart monitoring.
Mechanism: Alert conditions are set for buy and sell signals, delivering notifications with the entry price for seamless integration into trading workflows.
Synergy: Enhances usability by allowing traders to act on high-probability setups identified by the indicator’s combined logic.
Originality
"Future is Here" is an original creation that distinguishes itself through its holistic approach to technical analysis. Unlike single-purpose indicators, it integrates volatility, trend, momentum, and support/resistance into a unified system, reducing the need for multiple scripts. The inclusion of RRR calculations directly in signal labels is a unique feature that empowers traders to evaluate trade quality instantly. The script’s design emphasizes clarity and efficiency, with cooldowns to prevent label clutter and a limit on support/resistance lines to maintain chart readability. This combination of features, along with its customizable parameters, makes it a versatile and novel tool for traders seeking a robust, all-in-one solution.
How to Use
Setup: Add the indicator to your TradingView chart and adjust input parameters (e.g., Volatility Length, Trend Length, TP/SL Multipliers) to suit your trading style and timeframe.
Interpretation:
Look for "Buy Zone" or "Sell Zone" labels to identify potential entry points.
Confirm entries with "Bull Mom" or "Bear Mom" labels and trend direction (Bull/Bear Target labels).
Use Support/Resistance lines to set logical TP/SL levels or anticipate reversals.
Evaluate Buy/Sell signals with TP, SL, and RRR for high-probability trades.
Alerts: Set up alerts for Buy/Sell signals to receive real-time notifications.
Customization: Fine-tune multipliers and lengths to adapt the indicator to different markets (e.g., stocks, forex, crypto) or timeframes.
Super MTF Clouds (4x3 Pairs)Overview:
This script is based on Ripster's MTF clouds, which transcends the standard moving average cloud indicator by offering a powerful and deeply customizable Multi-Timeframe (MTF) analysis. Instead of being limited to the moving averages of your current charts from the current timeframe, this tool allows you to project and visualize the trend and key support/resistance zones from up to 4 different timeframes simultaneously. User can input up to 6 different EMA values which will form 3 pairs of EMA clouds, for each of the timeframes.
The primary purpose is to provide traders with immediate confluence. By observing how price interacts with moving average clouds from higher timeframes (e.g., Hourly, Daily, Weekly), you can make more informed decisions on your active trading timeframe (e.g., 10 Minute). It's designed as a complete MTF Cloud toolkit, allowing you to display all necessary MTFs in a single script to build a comprehensive view of the market structure without having to flick to different timeframe to look for cloud positions.
Key features:
Four Independent Multi-Timeframe Slots: Each slot can be assigned any timeframe available on TradingView (e.g., D, W, M, 4H).
Three MA Pairs Per Timeframe: For each timeframe, configure up to three separate MA clouds (e.g., a 9/12 EMA pair, a 20/50 EMA pair, and a 100/200 SMA pair).
Complete Customisation: For every single moving average (24 in total), you can independently control:
MA Type: Choose between EMA or SMA.
Length: Any period you require.
Line Color: Full colour selection.
Line Thickness: Adjust the visual weight of each line.
Cloud Control: For every pair (12 in total), you can set the fill colour and transparency.
How To Use This Script:
This tool is best used for confirmation and context. Here are some practical strategies that one can adopt:
Trend Confluence: Before taking a trade based on a signal on your current timeframe, glance at the higher timeframe clouds. If you see a buy signal on the 15-minute chart and the price is currently trading above a thick, bullish Daily cloud, the probability of that trade succeeding is significantly higher. Conversely, shorting into strong HTF support is a low-probability trade.
Dynamic Support & Resistance: The edges of the higher timeframe clouds often act as powerful, dynamic levels of support and resistance. A pullback to the 4-Hour 50 EMA on your 15-minute chart can be a prime area to look for entries in the direction of the larger trend.
Gauging Market Regimes: Use the toggles in the settings to quickly switch between different views. You can have a "risk-on" view with short-term clouds and a "macro" view with weekly and monthly clouds. This helps you adapt your trading style to the current market conditions.
Key Settings:
1. Global Setting
Source For All MAs: This determines the price data point used for every single moving average calculation.
Default: hl2 (an average of the High and Low of each bar). This gives a smooth midpoint price.
Options: You can change this to Close (the most common method), Open, High, Low, or ohlc4 (an average of the open, high, low, and close), among others.
Recommendation: For most standard trend analysis, the default hl2 is the common choice.
2. The Timeframe Group Structure
The rest of the settings are organized into four identical, collapsible groups: "Timeframe 1 Settings" through "Timeframe 4 Settings". Each group acts as a self-contained control panel for one multi-timeframe view.
Within each timeframe group, you have two master controls:
Enable Timeframe: This is the main power switch for the entire group. Uncheck this box to instantly hide all three clouds and lines associated with this timeframe. This is perfect for quickly decluttering your chart or focusing on a different set of analyses.
Timeframe: This dropdown menu is the heart of the MTF feature. Here, you select the higher timeframe you want to analyse (e.g., 1D for Daily, 1W for Weekly, 4H for 4-Hour). All calculations for the three pairs within this group will be based on the timeframe you select here.
3. Pair-Specific Controls
Inside each timeframe group, there are three sections for "Pair 1", "Pair 2", and "Pair 3". These control each individual moving average cloud.
Enable Pair: Just like the master switch for the timeframe, this checkbox turns a single cloud and its two MA lines on or off.
For each pair, the settings are further broken down:
Moving Average Lines (A and B): These two rows control the two moving averages that form the cloud. 'A' is typically used for the shorter-period MA and 'B' for the longer-period one.
Type (A/B): A dropdown menu to select either EMA (Exponential Moving Average) or SMA (Simple Moving Average). EMAs react more quickly to recent price changes, while SMAs are smoother and react more slowly.
Length (A/B): The lookback period for the moving average (e.g., 21, 50, 200).
Color (A/B): Sets the specific colour of the MA line itself on your chart.
Cloud Fill Settings
Fill Color: This controls the colour of the shaded area (the "cloud") between the two moving average lines. For a consistent look, you can set this to the same colour as your shorter MA line.
Transparency: Controls how see-through the cloud is, on a scale of 0 to 100. 0 is a solid, opaque colour, while 100 is completely invisible. The default of 85 provides a light, "cloud-like" appearance that doesn't obscure the price action.

// Detected Swing Low
Persistent Support & Resistance Lines:
Each detected swing high or low is extended forward until price invalidates the level. Dotted style is applied once breached.
Color-Coded Trend Trail:
Displays a stepped trend trail using HMA slope: lime = uptrend, blue = downtrend.
Automatic Labeling:
Each reversal level is labeled with its price for clear reference.
Age-Based Line Thickness:
Every level increases in thickness every 250 bars. The longer the level lasts, the stronger it is.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use green (support) and blue (resistance) levels to frame key reaction zones.
Trade with the trend defined by the trail color: lime for bullish bias, blue for bearish.
Explore where buy or sell orders are stacked
Look for breaks of swing lines to anticipate trend shifts or breakout setups.
Adjust the "Trend Change" input to tune the sensitivity of swing detection.
Adjust the "SwingLevels" input to define how far back to search for valid pivots.
🔵 CONCLUSION
HMA Swing Levels offers a hybrid approach to structural and trend-based trading. With automated non-lagging swing detection, persistent support/resistance tracking, and intuitive HMA-based trend coloring, it provides a powerful visual system for discretionary and systematic traders alike.

Volatility Quality [Alpha Extract]The Alpha-Extract Volatility Quality (AVQ) Indicator provides traders with deep insights into market volatility by measuring the directional strength of price movements. This sophisticated momentum-based tool helps identify overbought and oversold conditions, offering actionable buy and sell signals based on volatility trends and standard deviation bands.
🔶 CALCULATION
The indicator processes volatility quality data through a series of analytical steps:
Bar Range Calculation: Measures true range (TR) to capture price volatility.
Directional Weighting: Applies directional bias (positive for bullish candles, negative for bearish) to the true range.
VQI Computation: Uses an exponential moving average (EMA) of weighted volatility to derive the Volatility Quality Index (VQI).
vqiRaw = ta.ema(weightedVol, vqiLen)
Smoothing: Applies an additional EMA to smooth the VQI for clearer signals.
Normalization: Optionally normalizes VQI to a -100/+100 scale based on historical highs and lows.
Standard Deviation Bands: Calculates three upper and lower bands using standard deviation multipliers for volatility thresholds.
vqiStdev = ta.stdev(vqiSmoothed, vqiLen)
upperBand1 = vqiSmoothed + (vqiStdev * stdevMultiplier1)
upperBand2 = vqiSmoothed + (vqiStdev * stdevMultiplier2)
upperBand3 = vqiSmoothed + (vqiStdev * stdevMultiplier3)
lowerBand1 = vqiSmoothed - (vqiStdev * stdevMultiplier1)
lowerBand2 = vqiSmoothed - (vqiStdev * stdevMultiplier2)
lowerBand3 = vqiSmoothed - (vqiStdev * stdevMultiplier3)
Signal Generation: Produces overbought/oversold signals when VQI reaches extreme levels (±200 in normalized mode).
Formula:
Bar Range = True Range (TR)
Weighted Volatility = Bar Range × (Close > Open ? 1 : Close < Open ? -1 : 0)
VQI Raw = EMA(Weighted Volatility, VQI Length)
VQI Smoothed = EMA(VQI Raw, Smoothing Length)
VQI Normalized = ((VQI Smoothed - Lowest VQI) / (Highest VQI - Lowest VQI) - 0.5) × 200
Upper Band N = VQI Smoothed + (StdDev(VQI Smoothed, VQI Length) × Multiplier N)
Lower Band N = VQI Smoothed - (StdDev(VQI Smoothed, VQI Length) × Multiplier N)
🔶 DETAILS
Visual Features:
VQI Plot: Displays VQI as a line or histogram (lime for positive, red for negative).
Standard Deviation Bands: Plots three upper and lower bands (teal for upper, grayscale for lower) to indicate volatility thresholds.
Reference Levels: Horizontal lines at 0 (neutral), +100, and -100 (in normalized mode) for context.
Zone Highlighting: Overbought (⋎ above bars) and oversold (⋏ below bars) signals for extreme VQI levels (±200 in normalized mode).
Candle Coloring: Optional candle overlay colored by VQI direction (lime for positive, red for negative).
Interpretation:
VQI ≥ 200 (Normalized): Overbought condition, strong sell signal.
VQI 100–200: High volatility, potential selling opportunity.
VQI 0–100: Neutral bullish momentum.
VQI 0 to -100: Neutral bearish momentum.
VQI -100 to -200: High volatility, strong bearish momentum.
VQI ≤ -200 (Normalized): Oversold condition, strong buy signal.
🔶 EXAMPLES
Overbought Signal Detection: When VQI exceeds 200 (normalized), the indicator flags potential market tops with a red ⋎ symbol.
Example: During strong uptrends, VQI reaching 200 has historically preceded corrections, allowing traders to secure profits.
Oversold Signal Detection: When VQI falls below -200 (normalized), a lime ⋏ symbol highlights potential buying opportunities.
Example: In bearish markets, VQI dropping below -200 has marked reversal points for profitable long entries.
Volatility Trend Tracking: The VQI plot and bands help traders visualize shifts in market momentum.
Example: A rising VQI crossing above zero with widening bands indicates strengthening bullish momentum, guiding traders to hold or enter long positions.
Dynamic Support/Resistance: Standard deviation bands act as dynamic volatility thresholds during price movements.
Example: Price reversals often occur near the third standard deviation bands, providing reliable entry/exit points during volatile periods.
🔶 SETTINGS
Customization Options:
VQI Length: Adjust the EMA period for VQI calculation (default: 14, range: 1–50).
Smoothing Length: Set the EMA period for smoothing (default: 5, range: 1–50).
Standard Deviation Multipliers: Customize multipliers for bands (defaults: 1.0, 2.0, 3.0).
Normalization: Toggle normalization to -100/+100 scale and adjust lookback period (default: 200, min: 50).
Display Style: Switch between line or histogram plot for VQI.
Candle Overlay: Enable/disable VQI-colored candles (lime for positive, red for negative).
The Alpha-Extract Volatility Quality Indicator empowers traders with a robust tool to navigate market volatility. By combining directional price range analysis with smoothed volatility metrics, it identifies overbought and oversold conditions, offering clear buy and sell signals. The customizable standard deviation bands and optional normalization provide precise context for market conditions, enabling traders to make informed decisions across various market cycles.
Intra_Candle_Welding by Chaitu50cIntra Candle Welding by Chaitu50c
This is a professional price action–based indicator designed to automatically detect and visualize *intra-candle reversal zones* using simple yet powerful logic. It highlights price levels where two consecutive opposite candles meet with a high probability of short-term market reaction.
Concept
The indicator identifies potential intraday support and resistance levels based on the "Intra Candle Welding" concept: when the close of one candle is very close to the open of the next candle, and the two candles have opposite directions (bullish followed by bearish, or bearish followed by bullish). These levels often attract market attention due to order flow imbalance created during such transitions.
How It Works
1. The indicator continuously monitors each new candle and checks if the current open is approximately equal to the previous close, within a configurable buffer.
2. It further ensures that the two candles form an opposite pair (green→red or red→green).
3. When a valid pair is detected, the indicator checks for existing active lines near this level. If no active line exists within the defined tolerance, it draws a new horizontal line at the detected level.
4. Each line is classified as either a potential resistance (from green→red pair) or support (from red→green pair).
5. Lines automatically extend rightward and update with each bar. If price breaks through the line beyond a configurable break buffer, the line stops extending and is visually marked as "broken."
6. The indicator intelligently manages the maximum number of lines on the chart by deleting the oldest ones when the limit is exceeded.
Use Case
Traders can use this tool to identify short-term reaction zones and potential intraday turning points. The highlighted levels act as temporary support and resistance areas where price frequently reacts. It is especially useful in fast-moving or volatile markets such as index futures or liquid stocks.
Features
* Automatically detects intra-candle reversal zones.
* Classifies zones as support (bottom) or resistance (top).
* Automatically updates and breaks lines when invalidated by price action.
* Adjustable parameters for flexibility:
* Equality Buffer
* Max Lines to Keep
* Line Suppression Tolerance
* Initial Extend Bars
* Break Buffer
* Line colors, widths, and styles (active and broken states)
* Efficient memory handling with capped line count.
* Minimalist and clean visual representation, suitable for overlay on any chart.
Recommended Settings
* Works best on intraday timeframes (1 min to 15 min).
* Tune the Equality Buffer and Tolerance parameters based on instrument volatility.
* Use conservative Break Buffer to avoid premature line invalidation.
Disclaimer
This is a tool to support discretionary trading decisions. It is not a standalone buy/sell signal generator. Users are advised to combine it with their own market context and risk management framework.
This indicator is released for the TradingView community for educational and practical trading use.

Auto Price Action SR Levels by Chaitu50cAuto Price Action SR Levels by Chaitu50c:
This is a session-based support and resistance indicator that identifies price levels based on actual candle activity, without relying on traditional indicators. It works by clustering open, high, low, or close values of past candles that frequently occur within a defined price range, making it a reliable price action-based tool for intraday traders.
The indicator calculates these levels at the start of each new trading session (based on NSE 09:15 time) and keeps them static throughout the session. This avoids unnecessary noise or flickering due to live price action, giving traders consistent zones to work with during the day.
FEATURES:
* Automatic detection of support and resistance levels based on candle price hits
* Cluster formation using high/low or open/close logic
* Static levels: calculated once per session and remain unchanged until the next session
* Adjustable settings for:
* Cluster range (in points)
* Number of lookback candles
* Line width
* Line color (default: black)
* Minimalist design for a clean chart experience
HOW IT WORKS:
The indicator looks back over a defined number of candles at the beginning of each session. It clusters prices that fall within a specified range (e.g., 250 points) and counts how many times they appear as open, high, low, or close values. If a price level is hit at least once (default), it is considered significant and a line is plotted.
Because clustering is done once per session, the lines do not shift during the session. This allows traders to base decisions on fixed, stable levels formed by prior market structure.
RECOMMENDED FOR:
* Intraday traders
* Price action traders
* Traders who prefer clean charts with logical SR zones
* Nifty, BankNifty, and stock-based day trading
Created by Chaitu50c for traders who rely on logic and structure, not signals.

Impulse Profile Zones [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Impulse Profile Zones is a volume-based tool designed to highlight high-impact candles and visualize hidden liquidity zones inside them using microstructure data. It’s ideal for identifying volume concentration and potential reaction points during impulsive market moves.
Whenever a candle exceeds a specified size threshold, this indicator captures its structure and overlays a detailed intrabar volume profile (from a 10x lower timeframe), allowing traders to analyze the distribution of interest within powerful market impulses.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Filters candles that exceed a user-defined threshold by size.
For qualifying candles, retrieves lower timeframe price and volume data.
Divides the candle’s body into 10 volume bins and calculates the volume per zone. Highlights the bin with the highest volume as the Point of Control (POC) .
Each POC line extends forward until a new impulse is detected.
🔵 FEATURES
Impulse Candle Detection:
Triggers only when a candle’s body size is larger than the defined threshold.
Lower Timeframe Profiling:
Aggregates 10-bin volume data from a lower timeframe (typically 1/10 of current TF).
Volume Distribution Bars:
Each bin displays a stylized bar using unicode block characters (e.g., ▇▇▇, ▇▇ or ▇--).
The bar size reflects the relative volume intensity.
POC Zone Mapping:
The bin with the highest volume is marked with a bold horizontal line.
Its value is labeled and extended until the next valid impulse.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use large candle profiles to assess which price levels inside a move were most actively traded.
Watch the POC line as a magnet for future price interaction (support/resistance or reaction).
Combine with market structure or order block indicators to identify confluence levels.
Adjust the “Filter Large Candles” input to detect more or fewer events based on volatility.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Impulse Profile Zones is a hybrid microstructure tool that bridges lower timeframe volume with higher timeframe impulse candles. By revealing where most of the volume occurred inside large moves, traders gain a deeper view into hidden liquidity, enabling smarter trade entries and more confident profit-taking zones.

SuperTrend: Silent Shadow 🕶️ SuperTrend: Silent Shadow — Operate in trend. Vanish in noise.
Overview
SuperTrend: Silent Shadow is an enhanced trend-following system designed for traders who demand clarity in volatile markets and silence during indecision.
It combines classic Supertrend logic with a proprietary ShadowTrail engine and an adaptive Silence Protocol to filter noise and highlight only the cleanest signals.
Key Features
✅ Core Supertrend Logic
Built on Average True Range (ATR), this trend engine identifies directional bias with visual clarity. Lines adjust dynamically with price action and flip when meaningful reversals occur.
✅ ShadowTrail: Stepped Counter-Barrier
ShadowTrail doesn’t predict reversals — it reinforces structure.
When price is trending, ShadowTrail forms a stepped ceiling in downtrends and a stepped floor in uptrends. This visual containment zone helps define the edges of price behavior and offers a clear visual anchor for stop-loss placement and trade containment.
✅ Silence Protocol: Adaptive Noise Filtering
During low-volatility zones, the system enters “stealth mode”:
• Trend lines turn white to indicate reduced signal quality
• Fill disappears to reduce distraction
This helps avoid choppy entries and keeps your focus sharp when the market isn’t.
✅ Visual Support & Stop-Loss Utility
When trendlines flatten or pause, they naturally highlight price memory zones. These flat sections often align with:
• Logical stop-loss levels
• Prior support/resistance areas
• Zones of reduced volatility where price recharges or rejects
✅ Custom Styling
Full control over line colors, width, transparency, fill visibility, and silence behavior. Tailor it to your strategy and visual preferences.
How to Use
• Use Supertrend color to determine bias — flips mark momentum shifts
• ShadowTrail mirrors the primary trend as a structural ceiling/floor
• Use flat segments of both lines to identify consolidation zones or place stops
• White lines = low-quality signal → stand by
• Combine with RSI, volume, divergence, or your favorite tools for confirmation
Recommended For:
• Traders seeking clearer trend signals
• Avoiding false entries in sideways or silent markets
• Identifying key support/resistance visually
• Structuring stops around real market containment levels
• Scalping, swing, or position trading with adaptive clarity

Forged for precision. Designed for silence.

GapCluster SR For Intraday by Chaitu50c**GapCluster SR For Intraday by Chaitu50c**
**Overview**
GapCluster SR plots dynamic intraday support and resistance lines based on candle-to-candle gaps. Whenever an Open/Close or High/Low gap is detected, the script draws a horizontal level and “clusters” nearby gaps into a single line to keep your chart clean. Lines automatically color-code relative to price—green when below, red when above.
---
**Key Features**
* **Gap Detection Modes**: Choose between Open/Close gaps (default) or High/Low gaps.
* **Clustering**: Merge levels within a user-defined vertical range to avoid clutter.
* **Dynamic Coloring**: Levels below price turn green; levels above price turn red.
* **Session Reset**: Automatically removes levels older than X days.
* **Fully Customizable**: Adjust buffer, cluster range, line width, lookback period, and both above/below colors.

**Inputs**
| Input | Default | Description |
| ---------------------------- | :--------: | ------------------------------------------- |
| Gap Type | Open/Close | Select gap detection method |
| Price Buffer (points) | 5.0 | Maximum distance for gap matching |
| Cluster Range (points) | 100.0 | Vertical distance within which levels merge |
| Line Width | 2 | Thickness of plotted lines |
| Days to Include | 14 | Number of days to retain past levels |
| Color for Levels Above Price | red | Line color when level > current price |
| Color for Levels Below Price | green | Line color when level < current price |

**How to Use**
1. **Add to Chart**: Apply on any intraday timeframe (1 min, 5 min, etc.).
2. **Select Mode**: Pick Open/Close or High/Low in settings.
3. **Tweak Inputs**: Raise/lower buffer for tighter/looser gap detection; adjust cluster range to group levels; change lookback (“Days to Include”) to control session reset.
4. **Interpret Levels**:
* **Green Lines** mark potential support zones.
* **Red Lines** mark potential resistance zones.
5. **Combine with Your Strategy**: Use alongside volume, momentum, or trend filters for confirmation.
---
**Tips & Tricks**
* **Intraday Entries**: Look for price reaction at green (support) lines for long setups, or red (resistance) lines for shorts.
* **Filter Noise**: Increase the “Cluster Range” to consolidate many close levels into stronger, singular lines.

Intraday Fibs RetracementFibonacci (Fibs) levels are often used by traders as a way to find support and resistance, based on the Fibonacci sequence. These levels are widely used in technical analysis to identify potential reversal points in the price of an asset.
Fibs retracement draws lines at these Fibs level between a significant high and low point on a price chart.
What it shows:
This indicator will automatically draw Fibs Retracement Levels on your chart without any manual work.
It is designed to be used for day trading, especially in scenarios where a ticker gaps up/down large compared to the prior day close. (i.e. scenario where the difference of day's open and prior day close is large)
The drawing will happen on each trading day the moment trading hours open, and will NOT draw during pre-market and post-market.
User can see the line of each Fibs level, labelled with the Fib percentage and price value for the corresponding levels.
User will specify a start and end point of Fibs and based on the choice the indicator will automatically compute the other user defined Fibs levels and display on the chart.
How to use it:
The Fib levels drawn can be a potential support and resistance zone. Therefore in scenario where you already have a position and are approaching one of these levels it could be a point to close out some or all the position as you are approaching a resistance. On the other hand when price do approach these levels you could enter a position for a reversal trade. These are few ways to use the indicator but there are other ways that can be used, which can be found out by researching "Fibonacci (Fibs) Retracement".
In the example on the chart you can see a price bounce from the 0.7886 Fibs level on this particular day, where the price gapped up and was coming down after market hours opened.
Key settings:
1. Fibs Retracement Start and end Point: User selects where the Fibs levels should be drawn.
Available Options are:
Start Points:
Market Open
Market Open High (Dependent on the time frame you are on)
Pre-market High
Day's High
End Points:
Previous Day Close
Previous Day Low
Previous Day High
Pre-market Low (Current Day)
Day's Low
2. Custom Fib Levels: User can manually enter the Fib levels they want to see. (Max 9)
Default values are: 0,0.236,0.382,0.5,0.618,0.786,1,1.618,2.618.
3. Display settings: User can specify the line colour, thickness and style.
4. Label Setting: User can choose to turn on/off the labels for the each Fibs Level. Label will show the fib percentage and the corresponding price. User can also choose the location of the labels, defined by an offset from the current candle.
