Williams x Briese Hybrid CoT IndexAfter studying the below CoT (Commitments of Traders) books from ICT's recommended library, I learned that both Larry Williams and Stephen Briese use the same formula for their CoT Index:
COT Index = ((Current Net Position - Lowest Net Position) / (Highest Net Position - Lowest Net Position)) * 100 using a 3-Year lookback period.
Books:
Trade Stocks and Commodities with the Insiders: Secrets of the COT Report by Larry Williams
The Commitments of Traders Bible: How To Profit from Insider Market Intelligence by Stephen Briese
Williams and Briese differ in their plotting of the CoT Index formula in the following ways:
Williams uses a line plot, with thresholds at 25% & 75%
Briese uses a histogram plot, with thresholds at 5% & 90%
I decided to make a "hybrid" indicator of their CoT Index by using Larry Williams' classic line plot instead of a histogram, but with Briese's stricter thresholds of 5% and 95%.
The code is a bit of a remix of the "ICT Commitment of Traders°" indicator by toodegrees and is meant for use in a new pane below a Weekly Chart .
You can complement your usage of this indicator with another indicator I've published as shown in the chart above: Briese CoT Movement Index , which you can find on my scripts page. For proper usage, refer to The Commitments of Traders Bible and Trade Stocks and Commodities with the Insiders
As it is, this indicator incorporates the ±40 point "surge" from the Briese CoT Movement Index indicator in the form of labels that are visible above a below the 100% and 0% levels. The green labels at the top indicate buying surges >=40 while the black labels at the bottom indicate selling surges <=-40. If you hover over these labels, you'll see the tooltip for the value of the Movement Index. Again, if you complement this Williams x Briese Hybrid CoT Index with the Briese CoT Movement Index , you'll see the labels from the index align with the points on the histogram which exceed the ±40 levels.

ICT Friday's Asian Range°This concept was engineered and taught by the Inner Circle Trader .
The goal of this script is to outline a potential draw on liquidity for the next trading week. It gives a parameter for ICT PD Arrays to be located above and below the marketplace and should be used in conjunction with the higher Timeframe Arrays as defined by ICT.
If there is a higher Timeframe array with a standard deviation confluence of the Friday Asian Range it is considered high probability for price to reach up/down to that level, and present a potential retracement or reversal.
The Asian Range is defined as the window of Time between 7PM to Midnight New York Time. In this case we will be only using the Friday's Asian Range which will take place on Thursday between these Times.
We have two ranges: a Body range made of the highest and lowest candle bodies, and a Wick range made by the highest and lowest candle wicks.
ICT teaches that we only want to apply this concept to the 5minute and 15minute chart.
THIS SCRIPT WILL NOT WORK ON ANY OTHER TIMEFRAME OUT OF THE BOX

Watermark° (Quote, Name, Timeframe, Date)I have been asked for this a lot, so here it is!
It's an easy script to read, and for all you aspiring Pinescript coders out there it might serve as a little introduction on Tables , switch operator, and a bit of UI/UX!
Description:
This is just a watermark, which follows my personal style an aesthetic when it comes to Pinescript tools. I like to keep my charts clean to focus on Time and price, and I love to have a reminder to remain disciplined.
Homo Faber Fortunae Suae is a Latin maxim which loosely translates to: Humans Are The Makers Of Their Own Destiny.
So make your own destiny, master yourself and the charts!
Indicator Features:
– Display symbol ticker, timeframe and date all in one place.
– Make it look nice 🤗
– Protect your TV username ID, by having your chart show a custom username (if you are sharing charts outside of Tradingview, and are known under a different alias there)
Note: no matter what, by exporting images from TV (copy image/copy link to chart) your TV username will appear in the top left corner of the image
