Multi-Symbol Volatility Tracker with Range DetectionMulti-Symbol Volatility Tracker with Range Detection
🎯 Main Purpose:
This indicator is specifically designed for scalpers to quickly identify symbols with high volatility that are currently in ranging conditions . It helps you spot the perfect opportunities for buying at lows and selling at highs repeatedly within the same trading session.
📊 Table Data Explanation:
The indicator displays a comprehensive table with 5 columns for 4 major symbols (GOLD, SILVER, NASDAQ, SP500):
SYMBOL: The trading instrument being analyzed
VOLATILITY: Color-coded volatility levels (NORMAL/HIGH/EXTREME) based on ATR values
Last Candle %: The percentage range of the most recent 5-minute candle
Last 5 Candle Avg %: Average percentage range over the last 5 candles
RANGE: Shows "YES" (blue) or "NO" (gray) indicating if the symbol is currently ranging
🔍 How to Identify Trading Opportunities:
Look for symbols that combine these characteristics:
RANGE column shows "YES" (highlighted in blue) - This means the symbol is moving sideways, perfect for range trading
VOLATILITY shows "HIGH" or "EXTREME" - Ensures there's enough movement for profitable scalping
Higher candlestick percentages - Indicates larger candle ranges, meaning more profit potential per trade
⚡ Optimal Usage:
Best Timeframe: Works optimally on 5-minute charts where the ranging patterns are most reliable for scalping
Trading Strategy: When you find a symbol with "YES" in the RANGE column, switch to that symbol and look for opportunities to buy near the lows and sell near the highs of the ranging pattern
Risk Management: Higher volatility symbols offer more profit potential but require tighter risk management
⚙️ Settings:
ATR Length: Adjusts the Average True Range calculation period (default: 14)
Range Sensitivity: Fine-tune range detection sensitivity (0.1-2.0, lower = more sensitive)
💡 Pro Tips:
The indicator updates in real-time, so monitor for symbols switching from "NO" to "YES" in the RANGE column
Combine HIGH/EXTREME volatility with RANGE: YES for the most profitable scalping setups
Use the candlestick percentages to gauge potential profit per trade - higher percentages mean more movement
The algorithm uses advanced statistical analysis including standard deviation, linear regression slopes, and range efficiency to accurately detect ranging conditions
Perfect for day traders and scalpers who want to quickly identify which symbols offer the best ranging opportunities for consistent buy-low, sell-high strategies.

Liquidity SweeperStrategy Overview
This Pine Script implements a Liquidity Sweep Trading Strategy, a sophisticated approach that capitalizes on market manipulation tactics commonly used by institutional traders. The strategy identifies when price "sweeps" above recent swing highs or below swing lows to trigger stop losses and grab liquidity, then quickly reverses direction - creating high-probability trading opportunities.
Core Concept: What is a Liquidity Sweep?
A liquidity sweep occurs when:
Price breaks above a swing high (or below a swing low) to trigger retail stop losses
Institutional players absorb this liquidity at favorable prices
Price quickly reverses back into the previous range
This creates a "fake breakout" or "stop hunt" pattern
The strategy exploits these manipulative moves by entering trades in the direction of the reversal.
How the Strategy Works
1. Swing Point Detection
Uses a lookback period (default: 20 bars) to identify significant swing highs and lows
Employs proper pivot point detection using ta.highestbars() and ta.lowestbars()
Only considers confirmed swing points (not just recent highs/lows)
2. Liquidity Sweep Identification
High Sweep (Short Setup):
Price moves above the last swing high (triggering buy stops)
Same bar closes back below the swing high (showing rejection)
Low Sweep (Long Setup):
Price moves below the last swing low (triggering sell stops)
Same bar closes back above the swing low (showing support)
3. Confirmation Process
Requires price to stay within the swept range for a specified number of bars (default: 3)
This confirms the sweep was genuine and not just normal volatility
Prevents false signals and improves trade quality
4. Entry Logic
Long Entries: Triggered after confirmed low sweeps
Short Entries: Triggered after confirmed high sweeps
5. Risk Management
Stop Loss: Placed at a multiple of ATR (default: 1.5x) from entry price
Take Profit: Risk/Reward ratio based (default: 2:1)
Position Sizing: 10% of equity per trade (configurable)
Red X-crosses: High sweeps detected
Green X-crosses: Low sweeps detected
Red triangles (down): Short entry signals
Green triangles (up): Long entry signals
Horizontal lines: Current swing high/low levels
Info label: Shows last detected swing levels
Optimal Conditions:
Timeframes: 1H, 4H, and Daily work best
Market Conditions: Ranging and trending markets both suitable
Volatility: Moderate to high volatility preferred
Session Times: Most effective during active trading sessions
Strengths:
✅ Exploits institutional manipulation tactics
✅ Clear entry/exit rules with defined risk
✅ Works across multiple asset classes
✅ Includes proper confirmation to reduce false signals
✅ Visual clarity for manual verification
✅ Reasonable risk/reward parameters
Limitations:
⚠️ Requires patience - not a high-frequency strategy
⚠️ Market dependent - fewer signals in low volatility periods
⚠️ Needs sufficient lookback data for swing identification
⚠️ May have drawdown periods during strong trending moves
⚠️ Requires understanding of market structure concepts
Best Practices for Users
Optimization Tips:
Adjust lookback period based on timeframe (shorter for lower TFs)
Test different confirmation periods for your market
Consider market session times when backtesting
Use alongside volume analysis for additional confirmation
Risk Management:
Never risk more than 2-3% per trade of total capital
Consider reducing position size during high-impact news
Monitor correlation if trading multiple pairs simultaneously
Use additional filters (trend, support/resistance) for confluence
Backtesting Recommendations:
Test on at least 6 months of historical data
Include different market conditions (trending, ranging, volatile)
Consider transaction costs and slippage in results
Forward test on demo before live implementation
Expected Results
Based on typical liquidity sweep strategy performance:
Disclaimer
This strategy is based on market structure analysis and institutional trading behavior patterns. Past performance doesn't guarantee future results. Users should:
Thoroughly backtest before live trading
Start with small position sizes
Understand the underlying concepts before implementation
Consider combining with other analysis methods
Always use proper risk management
The strategy works best when traders understand the psychological and structural elements of liquidity sweeps rather than just following signals blindly.
SMC BOS - Structure Breaks & Median Continuation ProjectionsThis tool shows what usually happens after a Break of Structure (BOS).
It scans past BOS events on your chart, finds the ones most similar to the latest break (using ATR to filter by volatility), and then plots the median continuation path.
Optional percentile bands (P10–P90) display the possible range of outcomes around the median.
Key features:
• Automatic detection of bullish and bearish BOS events
• Library of past BOS with adjustable size and spacing
• ATR-based similarity and recency weighting
• Median continuation projections with optional percentile bands
• Customizable colors, signals, and stats table
• Works on any market and timeframe
Use cases:
• See how price typically behaves after a BOS
• Support SMC analysis with data-driven projections
• Improve trade planning by visualizing likely continuations
• Apply across crypto, forex, stocks, and futures
Originality:
Instead of only marking BOS, this script learns from history and projects forward the median path of the most similar past cases, adjusted for volatility. It turns BOS signals into practical continuation scenarios.
Instructions:
Add the indicator to your chart. When a BOS is detected, the projection is drawn automatically.
Use the settings to adjust the library, ATR weighting, projection style, percentile bands, and the display of signals or stats.

Avg Candle Size (Ticks) – Last 9 Closed BarsWhat it does:
Shows the average candle size in ticks for the last N closed bars (defaults to 9). I built this so I can glance at a 5-min chart and instantly know the typical bar size in ticks, updating only after each bar closes (no intrabar wiggle).
How it works:
Measures each bar’s full range (High–Low), not ATR and not candle body.
Averages the last N closed bars, converts to ticks using syminfo.mintick.
Displays a simple line plus a small readout (e.g., “32 ticks”).
Why I built it:
Gives me a realistic sense of current volatility in ticks so I can size stops/targets quickly without doing mental math.
Extras:
Lookback is configurable (default 9).
Optional rounding (floor/nearest/ceil).
Works on any timeframe/instrument that has a defined tick size.
If you want it to match ATR exactly (in ticks), swap the range calc for ta.atr(len) / syminfo.mintick

ATR: The ATR is calculated using ta.rma(ta.tr(true), 14) (Wilder’s smoothing), and optionally scaled by a multiplier for easier use in risk management.
Tables: ATR value and watermark are displayed using table.new() so they stay anchored to the screen regardless of zoom level.
📈 How to Use
Enable the MAs you want to track and adjust their lengths, type, and colors.
Enable ATR if you want to see volatility — optionally select a higher timeframe for broader context.
Use MAs to:
Identify overall trend direction (e.g. price above MA20 = bullish)
Spot pullback zones for entries
See when multiple MAs cluster together as support/resistance zones
Use ATR value to:
Size your stop-loss dynamically (e.g. stop = entry − 1.5×ATR)

Omega ATR Indicator📖 Introduction
The Ω ATR Indicator was created to provide a more complete and professional framework for volatility analysis than the classic Average True Range (ATR).
While the traditional ATR is a useful tool, it has limitations: it delivers a simple rolling average of volatility, but it does not adapt to market regimes, it does not highlight extreme events, and it often leaves the trader with incomplete information about risk.
The Ω ATR takes the same foundation and elevates it into a multi-dimensional volatility dashboard, adding statistical layers, adaptive calculations, and clear visual references that allow traders to interpret volatility in a way that is immediately actionable.
🔎 What makes it different from a standard ATR?
This indicator introduces several features beyond the classic formula:
True Range Core – plots the raw True Range (TR) for each bar, providing a direct, bar-by-bar view of volatility impulses.
Standard & Adjusted ATR – includes both the conventional ATR (smoothed average) and an Adjusted ATR that automatically corrects for extreme conditions by incorporating percentile rescaling.
Percentile Volatility Levels – dynamically calculated extreme thresholds (99.8%, 75%, 50%, 25%), plotted as dotted levels across the chart. These act as reference lines for “normal” vs. “abnormal” volatility, useful for spotting unusual price expansions or contractions.
Linear Regression Volatility Trend – overlays a regression line of volatility, showing whether the market is moving toward expansion (rising vol), contraction (falling vol), or stability.
Monetary Value Translation – the indicator converts volatility into points, ticks, and dollar values (based on the instrument’s point value). This allows futures traders and high-value instruments users to immediately see how much volatility is “worth” in cash terms.
Interactive Table Display – a real-time statistics table is displayed directly on the chart, showing:
SMA of ATR in $ and points
Percentile-based volatility range (VAR) in $ and points
Tick equivalences, for quick position sizing
⚡ How traders can use it
The Ω ATR Indicator is designed to be versatile, fitting both discretionary traders and systematic strategy developers.
Risk Management: ATR-based stop losses and position sizing are significantly improved by using the adjusted ATR and percentile thresholds. Traders can size their positions according to volatility regimes, not just raw averages.
Breakout & Exhaustion Detection: When TR or ATR values spike above the 99.8% or 95% percentile levels, this often corresponds to breakout conditions or volatility exhaustion — useful for breakout strategies, mean-reversion setups, and volatility fades.
Market Regime Identification: The regression line helps distinguish if volatility is rising (trending environment, larger swings expected) or compressing (range-bound environment, lower risk opportunities).
Multi-Asset Flexibility: Works equally well on equities, futures, crypto, and FX. Its point/tick/dollar conversion makes it especially powerful for futures traders who need to quantify risk precisely.
Scalping to Swing Trading: On lower timeframes, it acts as a micro-volatility detector; on higher timeframes, it functions as a strategic risk gauge for position management.
⚙️ Settings and Customization
Length: The ATR lookback period (default = 34).
Shorter lengths (14–21) for intraday traders who want fast response.
Longer lengths (34–55) for swing/position traders who want smoother readings.
AVG / ADJ AVG: Toggle to display the standard ATR or the adjusted ATR.
Volatility Levels: Enable/disable up to 4 percentile-based levels (1st = 25%, 2nd = 50%, 3rd = 75%, 4th = 99.8%). Recommended: keep 3 levels active for clarity.
Color Controls: All plots and levels are fully customizable to match your chart style.
Table Display: Positioned on the chart (default: middle-right) with key values updated in real time.
🧭 Best Practices for Use
Combine with Trend Tools: Volatility readings are most powerful when combined with trend filters or volume analysis. For example, a breakout with both high volatility and trend confirmation is stronger than either alone.
ATR Stops: Use the Adjusted ATR rather than the standard one when trailing stops in highly volatile instruments like crypto or Nasdaq futures, as it adapts to outlier spikes.
Dollar Risk Translation: Use the dollar-value outputs to predefine maximum acceptable risk per trade (e.g., “I only risk $250 per position”). This bridges volatility to portfolio risk management.
Event Monitoring: Around economic events or earnings, expect volatility spikes above higher percentile levels. The indicator makes these moves instantly visible.
📌 Summary
The Ω ATR Indicator is not just “another ATR.” It is a comprehensive volatility framework that transforms volatility from a simple statistic into an actionable trading signal.
By combining:
the classic ATR,
an adjusted ATR,
percentile extremes,
regression-based volatility trends,
and real-time dollar conversions,
…this tool allows traders to precisely understand, visualize, and act on volatility in ways that a standard ATR simply cannot provide.
Whether you are scalping intraday moves, swing trading equities, or managing futures positions, the Ω ATR equips you with a professional-grade volatility dashboard that clarifies risk, highlights opportunity, and adapts across all markets and timeframes.
👉 Designed and developed by OmegaTools for traders who demand precision, clarity, and adaptability in their volatility analysis.
Structural Liquidity Signals [BullByte]Structural Liquidity Signals (SFP, FVG, BOS, AVWAP)
Short description
Detects liquidity sweeps (SFPs) at pivots and PD/W levels, highlights the latest FVG, tracks AVWAP stretch, arms percentile extremes, and triggers after confirmed micro BOS.
Full description
What this tool does
Structural Liquidity Signals shows where price likely tapped liquidity (stop clusters), then waits for structure to actually change before it prints a trigger. It spots:
Liquidity sweeps (SFPs) at recent pivots and at prior day/week highs/lows.
The latest Fair Value Gap (FVG) that often “pulls” price or serves as a reaction zone.
How far price is stretched from two VWAP anchors (one from the latest impulse, one from today’s session), scaled by ATR so it adapts to volatility.
A “percentile” extreme of an internal score. At extremes the script “arms” a setup; it only triggers after a small break of structure (BOS) on a closed bar.
Originality and design rationale, why it’s not “just a mashup”
This is not a mashup for its own sake. It’s a purpose-built flow that links where liquidity is likely to rest with how structure actually changes:
- Liquidity location: We focus on areas where stops commonly cluster—recent pivots and prior day/week highs/lows—then detect sweeps (SFPs) when price wicks beyond and closes back inside.
- Displacement context: We track the last Fair Value Gap (FVG) to account for recent inefficiency that often acts as a magnet or reaction zone.
- Stretch measurement: We anchor VWAP to the latest N-bar impulse and to the Daily session, then normalize stretch by ATR to assess dislocation consistently across assets/timeframes.
- Composite exhaustion: We combine stretch, wick skew, and volume surprise, then bend the result with a tanh transform so extremes are bounded and comparable.
- Dynamic extremes and discipline: Rather than triggering on every sweep, we “arm” at statistical extremes via percent-rank and only fire after a confirmed micro Break of Structure (BOS). This separates “interesting” from “actionable.”
Key concepts
SFP (liquidity sweep): A candle briefly trades beyond a level (where stops sit) and closes back inside. We detect these at:
Pivots (recent swing highs/lows confirmed by “left/right” bars).
Prior Day/Week High/Low (PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL).
FVG (Fair Value Gap): A small 3‑bar gap (bar2 high vs bar1 low, or vice versa). The latest gap often acts like a magnet or reaction zone. We track the most recent Up/Down gap and whether price is inside it.
AVWAP stretch: Distance from an Anchored VWAP divided by ATR (volatility). We use:
Impulse AVWAP: resets on each new N‑bar high/low.
Daily AVWAP: resets each new session.
PR (Percentile Rank): Where the current internal score sits versus its own recent history (0..100). We arm shorts at high PR, longs at low PR.
Micro BOS: A small break of the recent high (for longs) or low (for shorts). This is the “go/no‑go” confirmation.
How the parts work together
Find likely liquidity grabs (SFPs) at pivots and PD/W levels.
Add context from the latest FVG and AVWAP stretch (how far price is from “fair”).
Build a bounded score (so different markets/timeframes are comparable) and compute its percentile (PR).
Arm at extremes (high PR → short candidate; low PR → long candidate).
Only print a trigger after a micro BOS, on a closed bar, with spacing/cooldown rules.
What you see on the chart (legend)
Lines:
Teal line = Impulse AVWAP (resets on new N‑bar extreme).
Aqua line = Daily AVWAP (resets each session).
PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL = prior day/week levels (toggle on/off).
Zones:
Greenish box = latest Up FVG; Reddish box = latest Down FVG.
The shading/border changes after price trades back through it.
SFP labels:
SFP‑P = SFP at Pivot (dotted line marks that pivot’s price).
SFP‑L = SFP at Level (at PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL).
Throttle: To reduce clutter, SFPs are rate‑limited per direction.
Triggers:
Triangle up = long trigger after BOS; triangle down = short trigger after BOS.
Optional badge shows direction and PR at the moment of trigger.
Optional Trigger Zone is an ATR‑sized box around the trigger bar’s close (for visualization only).
Background:
Light green/red shading = a long/short setup is “armed” (not a trigger).
Dashboard (Mini/Pro) — what each item means
PR: Percentile of the internal score (0..100). Near 0 = bullish extreme, near 100 = bearish extreme.
Gauge: Text bar that mirrors PR.
State: Idle, Armed Long (with a countdown), or Armed Short.
Cooldown: Bars remaining before a new setup can arm after a trigger.
Bars Since / Last Px: How long since last trigger and its price.
FVG: Whether price is in the latest Up/Down FVG.
Imp/Day VWAP Dist, PD Dist(ATR): Distance from those references in ATR units.
ATR% (Gate), Trend(HTF): Status of optional regime filters (volatility/trend).
How to use it (step‑by‑step)
Keep the Safety toggles ON (default): triggers/visuals on bar‑close, optional confirmed HTF for trend slope.
Choose timeframe:
Intraday (5m–1h) or Swing (1h–4h). On very fast/thin charts, enable Performance mode and raise spacing/cooldown.
Watch the dashboard:
When PR reaches an extreme and an SFP context is present, the background shades (armed).
Wait for the trigger triangle:
It prints only after a micro BOS on a closed bar and after spacing/cooldown checks.
Use the Trigger Zone box as a visual reference only:
This script never tells you to buy/sell. Apply your own plan for entry, stop, and sizing.

Bullish: Sweep under PDL (SFP‑L) and reclaim; PR in lower tail arms long; BOS up confirms → long trigger on bar close (ATR-sized trigger zone shown).
Bearish: Sweep above PDH/pivot (SFP‑L/P) and reject; PR in upper tail arms short; BOS down confirms → short trigger on bar close (ATR-sized trigger zone shown).
Settings guide (with “when to adjust”)
Safety & Stability (defaults ON)
Confirm triggers at bar close, Draw visuals at bar close: Keep ON for clean, stable prints.
Use confirmed HTF values: Applies to HTF trend slope only; keeps it from changing until the HTF bar closes.
Performance mode: Turn ON if your chart is busy or laggy.
Core & Context
ATR Length: Bigger = smoother distances; smaller = more reactive.
Impulse AVWAP Anchor: Larger = fewer resets; smaller = resets more often.
Show Daily AVWAP: ON if you want session context.
Use last FVG in logic: ON to include FVG context in arming/score.
Show PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL: ON to see prior day/week levels that often attract sweeps.
Liquidity & Microstructure
Pivot Left/Right: Higher values = stronger/rarer pivots.
Min Wick Ratio (0..1): Higher = only more pronounced SFP wicks qualify.
BOS length: Larger = stricter BOS; smaller = quicker confirmations.
Signal persistence: Keeps SFP context alive for a few bars to avoid flicker.
Signal Gating
Percent‑Rank Lookback: Larger = more stable extremes; smaller = more reactive extremes.
Arm thresholds (qHi/qLo): Move closer to 0.5 to see more arms; move toward 0/1 to see fewer arms.
TTL, Cooldown, Min bars and Min ATR distance: Space out triggers so you’re not reacting to minor noise.
Regime Filters (optional)
ATR percentile gate: Only allow triggers when volatility is at/above a set percentile.
HTF trend gate: Only allow longs when the HTF slope is up (and shorts when it’s down), above a minimum slope.
Visuals & UX
Only show “important” SFPs: Filters pivot SFPs by Volume Z and |Impulse stretch|.
Trigger badges/history and Max badge count: Control label clutter.
Compact labels: Toggle SFP‑P/L vs full names.
Dashboard mode and position; Dark theme.
Reading PR (the built‑in “oscillator”)
PR ~ 0–10: Potential bullish extreme (long side can arm).
PR ~ 90–100: Potential bearish extreme (short side can arm).
Important: “Armed” ≠ “Enter.” A trigger still needs a micro BOS on a closed bar and spacing/cooldown to pass.
Repainting, confirmations, and HTF notes
By default, prints wait for the bar to close; this reduces repaint‑like effects.
Pivot SFPs only appear after the pivot confirms (after the chosen “right” bars).
PD/W levels come from the prior completed candles and do not change intraday.
If you enable confirmed HTF values, the HTF slope will not change until its higher‑timeframe bar completes (safer but slightly delayed).
Performance tips
If labels/zones clutter or the chart lags:
Turn ON Performance mode.
Hide FVG or the Trigger Zone.
Reduce badge history or turn badge history off.
If price scaling looks compressed:
Keep optional “score”/“PR” plots OFF (they overlay price and can affect scaling).
Alerts (neutral)
Structural Liquidity: LONG TRIGGER
Structural Liquidity: SHORT TRIGGER
These fire when a trigger condition is met on a confirmed bar (with defaults).
Limitations and risk
Not every sweep/extreme reverses; false triggers occur, especially on thin markets and low timeframes.
This indicator does not provide entries, exits, or position sizing—use your own plan and risk control.

[DEM] Exit Signals Exit Signals is designed to identify potential exit points for existing positions by detecting specific candlestick patterns that suggest momentum exhaustion or reversal conditions using ATR-based size requirements. The indicator generates sell signals (red X marks above bars) when either a large bullish candle from the previous session (body size greater than 0.5x ATR over 50 periods) is followed by a bearish close near the previous open, or when the current candle shows exceptionally strong bullish momentum (body size greater than 1.3x ATR over 26 periods). Conversely, buy signals (blue X marks below bars) are triggered when a large bearish candle is followed by a bullish close near the previous open, or when the current candle displays exceptionally strong bearish momentum, helping traders identify potential exit opportunities where extreme price movements may be signaling exhaustion and possible reversal rather than continuation.
2ATR / Current Price %### **Real-Time 2ATR Volatility Ratio Indicator**
---
### **Overview**
This indicator provides a quick and visual way to understand market volatility by calculating the ratio between the **2ATR (Average True Range)** and the **current price**.
* **ATR (Average True Range)** is a widely-used measure of market volatility, showing the average price movement over a specific period.
* **2ATR** represents a price move that is twice the average volatility. Traders often use this value as a benchmark for potential support/resistance levels or for setting a dynamic stop-loss.
### **Key Features**
* **Real-Time Calculation**: Unlike many indicators that rely on the previous candle's close, this script calculates the 2ATR ratio using the **real-time current price**, providing you with up-to-the-second data.
* **Intuitive Display**: The final percentage value is shown in a clear **yellow label** at the **bottom-right** of your chart, making it easy to monitor without cluttering your view.
* **Customizable Input**: You can adjust the `ATR Period` setting to change the sensitivity of the volatility calculation, allowing you to adapt the indicator to different trading styles and timeframes.
### **How to Use It**
This tool is especially useful for **risk management and setting stop-loss orders**. The percentage displayed on the label tells you how much the price would need to move from its current level to equal a 2ATR change.
**Example**: If the indicator shows **3.5%**, it means a price drop of 3.5% from the current level would be equal to a 2ATR move. This gives you a clear and quantifiable number to help you set a **logical stop-loss** or to quickly assess the potential downside risk before entering a trade.

LBM-Strategy Engine Pro: The Ultimate Confluence IndicatorOverview
Welcome to the Strategy Engine Pro , the ultimate confluence indicator designed for traders who demand precision and full control over their trading signals. This is not just an indicator; it is a complete, customizable strategy-building framework.
It seamlessly integrates three powerful concepts into a single, intuitive tool:
Advanced Moving Average Trend Analysis to define the market context.
An intelligent Support & Resistance Cycle Engine to identify key price levels.
A flexible 10-rule Strategy Builder that lets you design, test, and refine your own entry signals with surgical precision.
Core Features
1. Advanced Moving Average Trend Analysis
The indicator plots 5 fully configurable Moving Averages (MAs). You can choose the Period and Type (SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, RMA) for each one. But its true power lies in its unique color-coding system, which analyzes the slope and momentum of each MA, not just its price.
MA Color Code:
Green: The MA is in a strong, confirmed uptrend.
Red: The MA is in a strong, confirmed downtrend.
Yellow: The MA is flat or in a transitional (sideways) phase.
This provides an instant visual snapshot of the market trend across five different timeframes.
2. Support & Resistance Cycle Engine
Forget simple pivot points. This indicator incorporates a sophisticated engine that identifies and plots significant "Master Cycle" levels on your chart.
Anchored Levels: These S/R lines are persistent and intelligent. When a key resistance level is broken, it automatically "flips" and becomes the new anchored support level, and vice-versa. This accurately maps out the market's structural progression.
The Strategy Builder: Your Personal Trading Lab
This is the heart of the indicator. You have 10 sequential rules that allow you to define the exact conditions for a Buy signal. The Sell signal is generated as the logical, symmetrical opposite.
For each rule, you can configure:
Source A & Source B: Choose from a wide range of data points:
Price values: Close, Open, High, Low.
Previous candle values: Close Before, Open Before, etc.
Moving Average values: MA 1 through MA 5.
MA Trend Colors: MA 1 Color, MA 2 Color Before, etc.
Operator: Define the comparison logic:
Standard: >, <, >=, <=
Events: Crossover, Crossunder
Color Logic: Is Color, Is NOT Color, Turned Color, Ceased to be Color
Important Note on Sell Signals: Sell conditions are designed to be the symmetrical opposite of the buy conditions you create.
If Buy is Close > MA 1, Sell will be Close < MA 1.
If Buy is MA 1 Color Is Green, Sell will be MA 1 Color Is Red.
If Buy is MA 1 Color Turned Green, Sell will be MA 1 Color Turned Red.
This ensures your sell strategy mirrors the logic of your buy strategy, preventing the "inverse problem" of getting sell signals on every candle that isn't a buy signal.
Mastering the Connectors: ( ) AND and ( ) OR
The true power of the Strategy Builder lies in its connectors, which allow you to create complex, multi-layered logic. The connector on a rule defines how it connects to the next active rule.
AND & OR: These work as you'd expect, creating a continuous chain of conditions.
Rule 1 (AND) & Rule 2 is evaluated as (R1 AND R2).
( ) OR (The Group Separator): This is your most powerful tool. It acts like closing a parenthesis in an equation. It finalizes the current group of rules and connects it to the
next group with a big "OR".
Example: (R1 AND R2) OR (R3 AND R4)
This creates two possible paths for a signal.
- Rule 1: Condition R1, Connector AND
- Rule 2: Condition R2, Connector ( ) OR <-- This closes the first group and links to the next with OR.
- Rule 3: Condition R3, Connector AND
- Rule 4: Condition R4
( ) AND (The Super-Filter): This allows you to create a "master" condition that must be true in addition to other complex conditions.
Example: (R1 OR R2) AND (R3 OR R4)
This requires a condition from the first group and a condition from the second group to be true.
- Rule 1: Condition R1, Connector OR
- Rule 2: Condition R2, Connector ( ) AND <-- This closes the first OR group and links to the next with AND.
- Rule 3: Condition R3, Connector OR
- Rule 4: Condition R4
By strategically combining these connectors, you can build any logical trading scenario you can imagine. We look forward to seeing the powerful strategies the community creates with this engine.
Composite Time ProfileComposite Time Profile Overlay (CTPO) - Market Profile Compositing Tool
Automatically composite multiple time periods to identify key areas of balance and market structure
What is the Composite Time Profile Overlay?
The Composite Time Profile Overlay (CTPO) is a Pine Script indicator that automatically composites multiple time periods to identify key areas of balance and market structure. It's designed for traders who use market profile concepts and need to quickly identify where price is likely to find support or resistance.
The indicator analyzes TPO (Time Price Opportunity) data across different timeframes and merges overlapping profiles to create composite levels that represent the most significant areas of balance. This helps you spot where institutional traders are likely to make decisions based on accumulated price action.
Why Use CTPO for Market Profile Trading?
Eliminate Manual Compositing Work
Instead of manually drawing and compositing profiles across different timeframes, CTPO does this automatically. You get instant access to composite levels without spending time analyzing each individual period.
Spot Areas of Balance Quickly
The indicator highlights the most significant areas of balance by compositing overlapping profiles. These areas often act as support and resistance levels because they represent where the most trading activity occurred across multiple time periods.
Focus on What Matters
Rather than getting lost in individual session profiles, CTPO shows you the composite levels that have been validated across multiple timeframes. This helps you focus on the levels that are most likely to hold.
How CTPO Works for Market Profile Traders
Automatic Profile Compositing
CTPO uses a proprietary algorithm that:
- Identifies period boundaries based on your selected timeframe (sessions, daily, weekly, monthly, or auto-detection)
- Calculates TPO profiles for each period using the C2M (Composite 2 Method) row sizing calculation
- Merges overlapping profiles using configurable overlap thresholds (default 50% overlap required)
- Updates composite levels as new price action develops in real-time
Key Levels for Market Profile Analysis
The indicator displays:
- Value Area High (VAH) and Value Area Low (VAL) levels calculated from composite TPO data
- Point of Control (POC) levels where most trading occurred across all composited periods
- Composite zones representing areas of balance with configurable transparency
- 1.618 Fibonacci extensions for breakout targets based on composite range
Multiple Timeframe Support
- Sessions: For intraday market profile analysis
- Daily: For swing trading with daily profiles
- Weekly: For position trading with weekly structure
- Monthly: For long-term market profile analysis
- Auto: Automatically selects timeframe based on your chart
Trading Applications for Market Profile Users
Support and Resistance Trading
Use composite levels as dynamic support and resistance zones. These levels often hold because they represent areas where significant trading decisions were made across multiple timeframes.
Breakout Trading
When composite levels break, they often lead to significant moves. The indicator calculates 1.618 Fibonacci extensions to give you clear targets for breakout trades.
Mean Reversion Strategies
Value Area levels represent the price range where most trading activity occurred. These levels often act as magnets, drawing price back when it moves too far from the mean.
Institutional Level Analysis
Composite levels represent areas where institutional traders have made significant decisions. These levels often hold more weight than traditional technical analysis levels because they're based on actual trading activity.
Key Features for Market Profile Traders
Smart Compositing Logic
- Automatic overlap detection using price range intersection algorithms
- Configurable overlap thresholds (minimum 50% overlap required for merging)
- Dead composite identification (profiles that become engulfed by newer composites)
- Real-time updates as new price action develops using barstate.islast optimization
Visual Customization
- Customizable colors for active, broken, and dead composites
- Adjustable transparency levels for each composite state
- Premium/Discount zone highlighting based on current price vs composite range
- TPO aggression coloring using TPO distribution analysis to identify buying/selling pressure
- Fibonacci level extensions with 1.618 target calculations based on composite range
Clean Chart Presentation
- Only shows the most relevant composite levels (maximum 10 active composites)
- Eliminates clutter from individual session profiles
- Focuses on areas of balance that matter most to current price action
Real-World Trading Examples
Day Trading with Session Composites
Use session-based composites to identify intraday areas of balance. The VAH and VAL levels often act as natural profit targets and stop-loss levels for scalping strategies.
Swing Trading with Daily Composites
Daily composites provide excellent swing trading levels. Look for price reactions at composite zones and use the 1.618 extensions for profit targets.
Position Trading with Weekly Composites
Weekly composites help identify major trend changes and long-term areas of balance. These levels often hold for months or even years.
Risk Management
Composite levels provide natural stop-loss levels. If a composite level breaks, it often signals a significant shift in market sentiment, making it an ideal place to exit losing positions.
Why Composite Levels Work
Composite levels work because they represent areas where significant trading decisions were made across multiple timeframes. When price returns to these levels, traders often remember the previous price action and make similar decisions, creating self-fulfilling prophecies.
The compositing process uses a proprietary algorithm that ensures only levels validated across multiple time periods are displayed. This means you're looking at levels that have proven their significance through actual market behavior, not just random technical levels.
Technical Foundation
The indicator uses TPO (Time Price Opportunity) data combined with price action analysis to identify areas of balance. The C2M row sizing method ensures accurate profile calculations, while the overlap detection algorithm (minimum 50% price range intersection) ensures only truly significant composites are displayed. The algorithm calculates row size based on ATR (Average True Range) divided by 10, then converts to tick size for precise level calculations.
How the Code Actually Works
1. Period Detection and ATR Calculation
The code first determines the appropriate timeframe based on your chart:
- 1m-5m charts: Session-based profiles
- 15m-2h charts: Daily profiles
- 4h charts: Weekly profiles
- 1D charts: Monthly profiles
For each period type, it calculates the number of bars needed for ATR calculation:
- Sessions: 540 minutes divided by chart timeframe
- Daily: 1440 minutes divided by chart timeframe
- Weekly: 7 days worth of minutes divided by chart timeframe
- Monthly: 30 days worth of minutes divided by chart timeframe
2. C2M Row Size Calculation
The code calculates True Range for each bar in the determined period:
- True Range = max(high-low, |high-prevClose|, |low-prevClose|)
- Averages all True Range values to get ATR
- Row Size = (ATR / 10) converted to tick size
- This ensures each TPO row represents a meaningful price movement
3. TPO Profile Generation
For each period, the code:
- Creates price levels from lowest to highest price in the range
- Each level is separated by the calculated row size
- Counts how many bars touch each price level (TPO count)
- Finds the level with highest count = Point of Control (POC)
- Calculates Value Area by expanding from POC until 68.27% of total TPO blocks are included
4. Overlap Detection Algorithm
When a new profile is created, the code checks if it overlaps with existing composites:
- Calculates overlap range = min(currentVAH, prevVAH) - max(currentVAL, prevVAL)
- Calculates current profile range = currentVAH - currentVAL
- Overlap percentage = (overlap range / current profile range) * 100
- If overlap >= 50%, profiles are merged into a composite
5. Composite Merging Logic
When profiles overlap, the code creates a new composite by:
- Taking the earliest start bar and latest end bar
- Using the wider VAH/VAL range (max of both profiles)
- Keeping the POC from the profile with more TPO blocks
- Marking the composite as "active" until price breaks through
6. Real-Time Updates
The code uses barstate.islast to optimize performance:
- Only recalculates on the last bar of each period
- Updates active composite with live price action if enabled
- Cleans up old composites to prevent memory issues
- Redraws all visual elements from scratch each bar
7. Visual Rendering System
The code uses arrays to manage drawing objects:
- Clears all lines/boxes arrays on every bar
- Iterates through composites array to redraw everything
- Uses different colors for active, broken, and dead composites
- Calculates 1.618 Fibonacci extensions for broken composites
Getting Started with CTPO
Step 1: Choose Your Timeframe
Select the period type that matches your trading style:
- Use "Sessions" for day trading
- Use "Daily" for swing trading
- Use "Weekly" for position trading
- Use "Auto" to let the indicator choose based on your chart timeframe
Step 2: Customize the Display
Adjust colors, transparency, and display options to match your charting preferences. The indicator offers extensive customization options to ensure it fits seamlessly into your existing analysis.
Step 3: Identify Key Levels
Look for:
- Composite zones (blue boxes) - major areas of balance
- VAH/VAL lines - value area boundaries
- POC lines - areas of highest trading activity
- 1.618 extension lines - breakout targets
Step 4: Develop Your Strategy
Use these levels to:
- Set entry points near composite zones
- Place stop losses beyond composite levels
- Take profits at 1.618 extension levels
- Identify trend changes when major composites break
Perfect for Market Profile Traders
If you're already using market profile concepts in your trading, CTPO eliminates the manual work of compositing profiles across different timeframes. Instead of spending time analyzing each individual period, you get instant access to the composite levels that matter most.
The indicator's automated compositing process ensures you're always looking at the most relevant areas of balance, while its real-time updates keep you informed of changes as they happen. Whether you're a day trader looking for intraday levels or a position trader analyzing long-term structure, CTPO provides the market profile intelligence you need to succeed.

VWAP Trend Strategy (Intraday) [KedarArc Quant]Description:
An intraday strategy that anchors to VWAP and only trades when a local EMA trend gate and a volume participation gate are both open. It offers two entry templates—Cross and Cross-and-Retest—with an optional Momentum Exception for impulsive moves. Exits combine a TrendBreak (structure flips) with an ATR emergency stop (risk cap).
Updates will be published under this script.
Why this merits a new script
This is not a simple “VWAP + EMA + ATR” overlay. The components are sequenced as gates and branches that *change the trade set* in ways a visual mashup cannot:
1. Trend Gate first (EMA fast vs. slow on the entry timeframe)
Counter-trend VWAP crosses are suppressed. Many VWAP scripts fire on every cross; here, no entry logic even evaluates unless the trend gate is open.
2. Participation Gate second (Volume SMA × multiplier)
This gate filters thin liquidity moves around VWAP. Without it, the same visuals would produce materially more false triggers.
3. Branching entries with structure awareness
* Cross: Immediate VWAP cross in the trend direction.
* Cross-and-Retest: Requires a revisit to VWAP vicinity within a lookback window (recent low near VWAP for longs; recent high for shorts). This explicitly removes first-touch fakeouts that a plain cross takes.
* Momentum Exception (optional): A quantified body% + volume condition can bypass the retest when flow is impulsive—intentional risk-timing, not “just another indicator.”
4. Dual exits that reference both anchor and structure
* TrendBreak: Close only when price loses VWAP and EMA alignment flips.
* ATR stop: Placed at entry to cap tail risk.
These exits complement the entry structure rather than being generic stop/target add-ons.
What it does
* Trades the session’s fair value anchor (VWAP), but only with local-trend agreement (EMA fast vs. slow) and sufficient participation (volume filter).
* Lets you pick Cross or Cross-and-Retest entries; optionally allow a fast Momentum Exception when candles expand with volume.
* Manages positions with a structure exit (TrendBreak) and an emergency ATR stop from entry.
How it works (concepts & calculations)
* VWAP (session anchor):
Standard VWAP of the active session; entries reference the cross and the retest proximity to VWAP.
* Trend gate:
Long context only if `EMA(fast) > EMA(slow)`; short only if `EMA(fast) < EMA(slow)`.
A *gate*, not a trigger—entries aren’t considered unless this is true.
* Participation (volume) gate:
Require `volume > SMA(volume, volLen) × volMult`.
Screens out low-participation wiggles around VWAP.
Entries:
* Cross: Price crosses VWAP in the trend direction while volume gate is open.
* Cross-and-Retest: After crossing, price revisits VWAP vicinity within `lookback` (recent *low near VWAP* for longs; recent *high near VWAP* for shorts).
* Momentum Exception (optional): If body% (|close−open| / range) and volume exceed thresholds, enter without waiting for the retest.
Exits:
* TrendBreak (structure):
* Longs close when `price < VWAP` and `EMA(fast) < EMA(slow)` (mirror for shorts).
* ATR stop (risk):
* From entry: `stop = entry ± ATR(atrLen) × atrMult`.
How to use it ?
1. Select market & timeframe: Intraday on liquid symbols (equities, futures, crypto).
2. Pick entry mode:
* Start with Cross-and-Retest for fewer, more selective signals.
* Enable Momentum Exception if strong moves leave without retesting.
3. Tune guards:
* Raise `volMult` to ignore thin periods; lower it for more activity.
* Adjust `lookback` if retests come late/early on your symbol.
4. Risk:
* `atrLen` and `atrMult` set the emergency stop distance.
5. Read results per session: Optional panel (if enabled) summarizes Net-R, Win%, and PF for today’s session to evaluate
behavior regime by regime.

ATR %Overview
Shows the Average True Range (ATR) as a percentage of a chosen price basis. Useful for a quick, apples-to-apples view of current volatility across symbols and timeframes. The value is displayed in a clean table at the bottom-right of the chart.
What it shows
Basis can be: Close, EMA(len), SMA(len), or VWAP.
Data timeframe can be the Chart timeframe or a Daily aggregation.
Inputs
ATR length (len) – ATR lookback.
Percent basis – Close / EMA / SMA / VWAP.
Data timeframe – Chart (uses the current chart TF) or Daily (computes ATR and basis from daily data).
Decimals – number of decimal places to display.
Text / Background / Frame colors – customize the table appearance.
Notes
In Daily mode, ATR and basis are taken from daily data and update on daily close.
VWAP is available only in Chart mode (Daily + VWAP will show n/a by design).
The script overlays the chart but does not plot lines—only a compact info box.
Use cases
Compare volatility across coins/stocks quickly using ATR% instead of raw ATR.
Switch basis to match your style (e.g., EMA for trend-aware scaling, VWAP for intraday context).
Set Daily to track higher-timeframe volatility while trading lower TFs.

Gann Fan Strategy [KedarArc Quant]Description
A single-concept, rule-based strategy that trades around a programmatic Gann Fan.
It anchors to a swing (or a manual point), builds 1×1 and related fan lines numerically, and triggers entries when price interacts with the 1×1 (breakout or bounce). Management is done entirely with the fan structure (next/previous line) plus optional ATR trailing.
What TV indicators are used
* Pivots: `ta.pivothigh/ta.pivotlow` to confirm swing highs/lows for anchor selection.
* ATR: `ta.atr` only to scale the 1×1 slope (optional) and for an optional trailing stop.
* EMA: `ta.ema` as a trend filter (e.g., only long above the EMA, short below).
No RSI/MACD/Stoch/Heikin/etc. The logic is one coherent framework: Gann price–time geometry, with ATR as a scale and EMA as a risk filter.
How it works
1. Anchor
* Auto: chooses the most recent *confirmed* pivot (you control Left/Right).
* Manual: set a price and bar index and the fan will hold that point (no re-anchoring).
* Optional Re-anchor when a newer pivot confirms.
2. 1×1 Slope (numeric, not cosmetic)
* ATR mode: `1×1 = ATR(Length) × Multiplier` (adapts to volatility).
* Fixed mode: `ticks per bar` (constant slope).
Because slope is numeric, it doesn’t change with chart zoom, unlike the drawing tool.
3. Fan Lines
Builds classic ratios around the 1×1: 1/8, 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 1/1, 2/1, 3/1, 4/1, 8/1.
4. Signals
* Breakout: cross of price over/under the 1×1 in the EMA-aligned direction.
* Bounce (optional): touch + reversal across the 1×1 to reduce whipsaw.
5. Exits & Risk
* Take-profit at the next fan line; Stop at the previous fan line.
* If a level is missing (right after re-anchor), a fallback Risk-Reward (RR) is used.
* Optional ATR trailing stop.
Why this is unique
* True numeric fan: The 1×1 slope is calculated from ATR or fixed ticks—not from screen geometry—so it is scale-invariant and reproducible across users/timeframes.
* Deterministic anchor logic: Uses confirmed pivots (with your L/R settings). No look-ahead; anchors update only when the right bars complete.
* Fan-native trade management: Both entries and exits come from the fan structure itself (with a minimal ATR/EMA assist), keeping the method pure.
* Two entry archetypes: Breakout for momentum days; Bounce for range days—switchable without changing the core model.
* Manual mode: Lock a session’s bias by anchoring to a chosen swing (e.g., day’s first major low/high) and keep the fan constant all day.
Inputs (quick guide)
* Auto Anchor (Left/Right): pivot sensitivity. Higher values = fewer, stronger anchors.
* Re-anchor: refresh to newer pivots as they confirm.
* Manual Anchor Price / Bar Index: fixes the fan (turn Auto off).
* Scale 1×1 by ATR: on = adaptive; off = use ticks per bar.
* ATR Length / ATR Multiplier: controls adaptive slope; start around 14 / 0.25–0.35.
* Ticks per bar: exact fixed slope (match a hand-drawn fan by computing slope ÷ mintick).
* EMA Trend Filter: e.g., 50–100; trades only in EMA direction.
* Use Bounce: require touch + reverse across 1×1 (helps in chop).
* TP/SL at fan lines; Fallback RR for missing levels; ATR Trailing Stop optional.
* Transparency/Plot EMA: visual preferences.
Tips
* Range days: larger pivots (L/R 8–12), Bounce ON, ATR Multiplier \~0.30–0.40, EMA 100.
* Trend days: L/R 5–6, Breakout, Multiplier \~0.20–0.30, EMA 50, ATR trail 1.0–1.5.
* Match the TV Gann Fan drawing: turn ATR scale OFF, set ticks per bar = `(Δprice between anchor and 1×1 target) / (bars) / mintick`.
Repainting & testing notes
* Pivots require Right bars to confirm; anchors are set after confirmation (no look-ahead).
* Signals use the current bar close with TradingView strategy mechanics; real-time vs. bar-close can differ slightly, as with any strategy.
* Re-anchoring legitimately moves the structure when new pivots confirm—by design.

Deadband Hysteresis Supertrend [BackQuant]Deadband Hysteresis Supertrend
A two-stage trend tool that first filters price with a deadband baseline, then runs a Supertrend around that baseline with optional flip hysteresis and ATR-based adverse exits.
What this is
A hybrid of two ideas:
Deadband Hysteresis Baseline that only advances when price pulls far enough from the baseline to matter. This suppresses micro noise and gives you a stable centerline.
Supertrend bands wrapped around that baseline instead of raw price. Flips are further gated by an extra margin so side changes are more deliberate.
The goal is fewer whipsaws in chop and clearer regime identification during trends.
How it works (high level)
Deadband step — compute a per-bar “deadband” size from one of four modes: ATR, Percent of price, Ticks, or Points. If price deviates from the baseline by more than this amount, move the baseline forward by a fraction of the excess. If not, hold the line.
Centered Supertrend — build upper and lower bands around the baseline using ATR and a user factor. Track the usual trailing logic that tightens a band while price moves in its favor.
Flip hysteresis — require price to exceed the active band by an extra flip offset × ATR before switching sides. This adds stickiness at the boundary.
Adverse exit — once a side is taken, trigger an exit if price moves against the entry by K × ATR .

What it plots
DBHF baseline (optional) as a smooth centerline.
DBHF Supertrend as the active trailing band.
Candle coloring by trend side for quick read.
Signal markers 𝕃 and 𝕊 at flips plus ✖ on adverse exits.
Inputs that matter
Price Source — series being filtered. Close is typical. HL2 or HLC3 can be steadier.
Deadband mode — ATR, Percent, Ticks, or Points. This defines the “it’s big enough to matter” zone.
ATR Length / Mult (DBHF) — only used when mode = ATR. Larger values widen the do-nothing zone.
Percent / Ticks / Points — alternatives to ATR; pick what fits your market’s convention.
Enter Mult — scales the deadband you must clear before the baseline moves. Increase to filter more noise.
Response — fraction of the excess applied to baseline movement. Higher responds faster; lower is smoother.
Supertrend ATR Period & Factor — traditional band size controls; higher factor widens and flips less often.
Flip Offset ATR — extra ATR buffer required to flip. Useful in choppy regimes.
Adverse Stop K·ATR — per-trade danger brake that forces an exit if price moves K×ATR against entry.
UI — toggle baseline, supertrend, signals, and bar painting; choose long and short colors.
How to read it
Green regime — candles painted long and the Supertrend running below price. Pullbacks toward the baseline that fail to breach the opposite band often resume higher.
Red regime — candles painted short and the Supertrend running above price. Rallies that cannot reclaim the band may roll over.
Frequent side swaps — reduce sensitivity by increasing Enter Mult, using ATR mode, raising the Supertrend factor, or adding Flip Offset ATR.
Use cases
Bias filter — allow entries only in the direction of the current side. Use your preferred triggers inside that bias.
Trailing logic — treat the active band as a dynamic stop. If the side flips or an adverse K·ATR exit prints, reduce or close exposure.
Regime map — on higher timeframes, the combination baseline + band produces a clean up vs down template for allocation decisions.
Tuning guidance
Fast markets — ATR deadband, modest Enter Mult (0.8–1.2), response 0.2–0.35, Supertrend factor 1.7–2.2, small Flip Offset (0.2–0.5 ATR).
Choppy ranges — widen deadband or raise Enter Mult, lower response, and add more Flip Offset so flips require stronger evidence.
Slow trends — longer ATR periods and higher Supertrend factor to keep you on side longer; use a conservative adverse K.
Included alerts
DBHF ST Long — side flips to long.
DBHF ST Short — side flips to short.
Adverse Exit Long / Short — K·ATR stop triggers against the current side.
Strengths
Deadbanded baseline reduces micro whipsaws before Supertrend logic even begins.
Flip hysteresis adds a second layer of confirmation at the boundary.
Optional adverse ATR stop provides a uniform risk cut across assets and regimes.
Clear visuals and minimal parameters to adjust for symbol behavior.
Putting it together
Think of this tool as two decisions layered into one view. The deadband baseline answers “does this move even count,” then the Supertrend wrapped around that baseline answers “if it counts, which side should I be on and where do I flip.” When both parts agree you tend to stay on the correct side of a trend for longer, and when they disagree you get an early warning that conditions are changing.
When the baseline bends and price cannot reclaim the opposite band , momentum is usually continuing. Pullbacks into the baseline that stall before the far band often resolve in trend.
When the baseline flattens and the bands compress , expect indecision. Use the Flip Offset ATR to avoid reacting to the first feint. Wait for a clean band breach with follow through.
When an adverse K·ATR exit prints while the side has not flipped , treat it as a risk event rather than a full regime change. Many users cut size, re-enter only if the side reasserts, and let the next flip confirm a new trend.
Final thoughts
Deadband Hysteresis Supertrend is best read as a regime lens. The baseline defines your tolerance for noise, the bands define your trailing structure, and the flip offset plus adverse ATR stop define how forgiving or strict you want to be at the boundary. On strong trends it helps you hold through shallow shakeouts. In choppy conditions it encourages patience until price does something meaningful. Start with settings that reflect the cadence of your market, observe how often flips occur, then nudge the deadband and flip offset until the tool spends most of its time describing the move you care about rather than the noise in between.
