Tagline: Adaptive EMA channel with ATR-based volatility bands — perfect for swing trading, intraday setups, and managing risk on high-volatility stocks.
This script plots a dynamic price channel around a configurable EMA using the Average True Range (ATR, Wilder’s True Range) as a volatility buffer.
Upper band = EMA + (ATR × multiplier)
Lower band = EMA – (ATR × multiplier)
📊 Features:
Adjustable EMA length, ATR length, and ATR multiplier
Visual channel fill between upper and lower bands
Optional on-chart help panel with practical combos
⚡ Practical Combos for Volatile Stocks:
EMA 20 + ATR 14 × 2.0 → most common swing trading setup
EMA 10 + ATR 14 × 1.5 → very responsive, good for intraday/high-beta names
EMA 20 + ATR 20 × 2.5 → smoother, wider channel, avoids whipsaws in chaotic stocks
✅ Use cases:
Identify dynamic support/resistance zones
Volatility-based stop-loss & take-profit placement
Spot overextensions from the trend midline

主力资金进出监控器Main Capital Flow Monitor-MEWINSIGHTMain Capital Flow Monitor Indicator
Indicator Description
This indicator utilizes a multi-cycle composite weighting algorithm to accurately capture the movement of main capital in and out of key price zones. The core logic is built upon three dimensions:
Multi-Cycle Pressure/Support System
Using triple timeframes (500-day/250-day/90-day) to calculate:
Long-term resistance lines (VAR1-3): Monitoring historical high resistance zones
Long-term support lines (VAR4-6): Identifying historical low support zones
EMA21 smoothing is applied to eliminate short-term fluctuations
Dynamic Capital Activity Engine
Proprietary VARD volatility algorithm:
VARD = EMA
Automatically amplifies volatility sensitivity by 10x when price approaches the safety margin (VARA×1.35), precisely capturing abnormal main capital movements
Capital Inflow Trigger Mechanism
Capital entry signals require simultaneous fulfillment of:
Price touching 30-day low zone (VARE)
Capital activity breaking recent peaks (VARF)
Weighted capital flow verified through triple EMA:
Capital Entry = EMA / 618
Visualization:
Green histogram: Continuous main capital inflow
Red histogram: Abnormal daily capital movement intensity
Column height intuitively displays capital strength
Application Scenarios:
Consecutive green columns → Main capital accumulation at bottom
Sudden expansion of red columns → Abnormal main capital rush
Continuous fluctuations near zero axis → Main capital washing phase
Core Value:
Provides 1-3 trading days early warning of main capital movements, suitable for:
Medium/long-term investors identifying main capital accumulation zones
Short-term traders capturing abnormal main capital breakouts
Risk control avoiding main capital distribution phases
Parameter Notes: Default parameters are optimized through historical A-share market backtesting. Users can adjust cycle parameters according to different market characteristics (suggest extending cycles by 20% for European/American markets).
Formula Features:
Multi-timeframe weighted synthesis technology
Dynamic sensitivity adjustment mechanism
Main capital activity intensity quantification
Early warning function for capital movements
Suitable Markets:
Stocks, futures, cryptocurrencies and other financial markets with obvious main capital characteristics.

Simple Pivot Zones (Error-free) — v11. Core Idea
The indicator we built is a “pivot-based zone detector with breakout signals.”
It does three things:
1. Finds important swing highs and swing lows in price (pivots).
2. Creates support and resistance zones around those pivots using volatility (ATR).
3. Watches price action to see if those zones get broken, then gives signals.
________________________________________
2. What is a Pivot?
A pivot high happens when the price makes a local peak — a bar is higher than the bars around it.
A pivot low happens when the price makes a local dip — a bar is lower than the bars around it.
These are natural turning points in the market, showing where buyers or sellers had strong control temporarily. Traders often use them to draw support (pivot lows) and resistance (pivot highs).
________________________________________
3. Why Use ATR for Zones?
ATR (Average True Range) measures the average volatility of a market. Instead of drawing just a flat line at the pivot, we create a zone above and below it, sized according to ATR.
Example:
• If ATR is 20 points and zone size is 0.5, then the zone extends 10 points above and below the pivot level.
This turns thin “lines” into thicker areas of interest. Real markets don’t respect razor-thin levels, but zones are more realistic.
________________________________________
4. How Support & Resistance Zones Work
• Resistance zones are created at pivot highs. They mark where sellers were strong before.
• Support zones are created at pivot lows. They mark where buyers were strong before.
Over time, these zones extend forward until the price interacts with them.
________________________________________
5. Breakout Detection
The indicator checks whether the price closes beyond the last pivot high or low:
• If price closes above the last pivot high, it means buyers have broken resistance.
• If price closes below the last pivot low, it means sellers have broken support.
These moments are significant because they often trigger trend continuation.
________________________________________
6. Parameters It Uses
1. Pivot Length – how many bars to look back and forward to confirm a pivot. A higher length makes pivots less frequent but stronger.
2. ATR Length and Multiplier – defines the size of the zones (wider zones in more volatile markets).
3. Max Zones to Keep – avoids clutter by keeping only the most recent zones.
4. Colors & Styling – helps traders visually separate bullish and bearish zones.
________________________________________
7. How It Helps Traders
• Visual clarity: Instead of guessing support and resistance, the chart automatically highlights them.
• Dynamic adjustment: Zones adapt to volatility using ATR, making them useful in both calm and volatile markets.
• Breakout signals: Traders get notified when price actually breaks key levels, instead of reacting late.
• Cleaner charts: Instead of dozens of hand-drawn lines, the tool manages zones for you, deleting old ones.
________________________________________
8. The Logic in One Sentence
It finds important swing highs and lows, turns them into support/resistance zones scaled by volatility, and alerts you when the market breaks through them.
________________________________________
👉 In practice, this helps traders spot where the market is likely to bounce or break, and gives a framework to plan trades — for example, buying on bullish breakouts or selling on bearish breakouts.

FVG [hatefbw] Overview
This indicator is a modified version of the Luxalgo group’s FVG indicator. It introduces an additional feature designed to help traders filter only the strongest Fair Value Gaps (FVGs).
How it works
A new option called “Confirm Third Closed Body” has been added to the settings.
When enabled, the indicator only highlights FVGs where the close of the third candle is above the shadow of the second candle.
Such FVGs are generally considered more reliable and stronger in price action analysis.
Usage
Enable the Confirm Third Closed Body option if you want to filter weaker FVGs and focus only on the most valid ones.
Keep the option disabled if you wish to view all standard FVGs.
This tool is particularly useful for traders who prefer additional confirmation before taking trades based on FVG setups
NASDAQ VWAP Distance Histogram (Multi-Symbol)📊 VWAP Distance Histogram (Multi-Symbol)
This custom indicator plots a histogram of price strength relative to the VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price).
The zero line is VWAP.
Histogram bars above zero = price trading above VWAP (strength).
Histogram bars below zero = price trading below VWAP (weakness).
Unlike a standard VWAP overlay, this tool lets you monitor multiple symbols at once and aggregates them into a single, easy-to-read histogram.
🔑 Features
Multi-Symbol Support → Track up to 10 different tickers plus the chart symbol.
Aggregation Options → Choose between average or median deviation across enabled symbols.
Percent or Raw Values → Display distance from VWAP as % of price or raw price points.
Smoothing → Apply EMA smoothing to calm intraday noise.
Color-Coded Histogram → Green above VWAP, red below.
Alerts → Trigger when the aggregate crosses above/below VWAP.
Heads-Up Table → Shows number of symbols tracked and current aggregate reading.
⚡ Use Cases
Market Breadth via VWAP → Monitor whether your basket of stocks is trading above or below VWAP.
Index Substitution → Create your own “mini index” by tracking a hand-picked set of tickers.
Intraday Confirmation → Use aggregate VWAP strength/weakness to confirm entries and exits.
Relative Strength Spotting → Switch on/off specific tickers to see who’s holding above VWAP vs. breaking down.
🛠️ Settings
Include Chart Symbol → Toggle to include the current chart’s ticker.
Smoothing → EMA length (set to 0 to disable).
Percent Mode → Show results as % of price vs. raw difference.
Aggregate Mode → Average or median across all active symbols.
Symbol Slots (S1–S10) → Enter tickers to track alongside the chart.
⚠️ Notes
Works best on intraday charts since VWAP is session-based.
Designed for confirmation, not as a standalone entry/exit signal.
Ensure correct symbol format (e.g., NASDAQ:AAPL if needed).
✅ Tip: Combine this with your regular price action strategy. For example, if your setup triggers long and the histogram is well above zero, that’s added confirmation. If it’s below zero, caution — the basket shows weakness.

FU + SMI Validator (Proper FU, 30m)Overview
The FU + SMI Validator is a sophisticated technical analysis indicator designed to detect Proper FU (Fakeouts or Liquidity Sweeps) on the 30-minute timeframe. This tool aims to help traders identify high-probability reversal setups that occur when price briefly breaks key levels (sweeping liquidity), then reverses with momentum confirmation.
Fakeouts are common market events where price action “hunts stops” before reversing direction. Correctly identifying these events can offer excellent entry points with defined risk. This indicator combines price action logic with momentum and volatility filters to provide reliable signals.
Core Concepts
Proper FU (Fakeout) Detection
At its core, the script identifies proper fakeouts by checking if the current bar’s price:
For bullish fakeouts: dips below the previous bar’s low (sweeping stops) and then closes above the previous bar’s high
For bearish fakeouts: spikes above the previous bar’s high and then closes below the previous bar’s low
This ensures that the breakout is a true sweep rather than just a one-sided close.
Optionally, the script can require one additional confirmation bar after the FU, ensuring that the momentum is sustained and reducing false signals.
SMI-style Momentum Validation
To improve the quality of signals, the indicator uses a proxy for the Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) by calculating the difference between current and past linear regression slopes of price. This momentum check helps ensure that fakeouts occur alongside actual directional strength.
Key points:
Momentum must be increasing in the direction of the FU signal.
Momentum filters can be enabled or disabled based on user preference.
Squeeze Condition to Avoid Low-Volatility Traps
The script includes a volatility filter based on a squeeze-like condition:
It compares Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC).
When BB bands contract inside KC bands, the market is in a squeeze state, signaling low volatility.
Fakeouts during squeeze conditions are often unreliable; the script can filter these out to reduce false alarms.
Killzone Session Timing Filter
Recognizing that liquidity and volatility vary by session, this tool supports optional filtering for:
London Killzone: 09:00 to 10:30 (UK time)
New York Killzone: 13:00 to 14:30 (UK time)
Signals only trigger during these high-activity windows if enabled, helping traders focus on periods with the best liquidity and market participation.
Note: For Killzone filtering to work accurately, your TradingView chart must be set to the UK timezone.
Features & Benefits
Robust FU detection ensures the breakout price action is meaningful, reducing noise.
Momentum filter via linear regression slope captures trend strength in a smooth, mathematically sound way.
Low-volatility squeeze avoidance helps reduce false signals in choppy or range-bound markets.
Killzone timing filter focuses your attention on the most liquid and active market hours.
Optional confirmation bar increases signal reliability.
Raw FU markers allow visualization of all detected fakeouts for pattern recognition and manual analysis.
Alerts built-in for both valid buy and sell FU setups, enabling real-time notification and quicker decision-making.
Customization Options
Killzone usage: Enable or disable the session timing filter.
Sessions: Configure London and New York killzone time ranges.
Momentum alignment: Enable or disable momentum filter based on SMI proxy.
Volatility filter: Avoid signals during squeeze or low-volatility conditions.
FU confirmation: Option to require one additional confirming candle after the initial FU.
Squeeze and momentum parameters: Adjust Bollinger Bands length and multiplier, Keltner Channel length and ATR multiplier.
Raw FU markers: Show or hide all detected fakeouts regardless of filters.
How to Use This Indicator
Apply to 30-minute charts for forex pairs, indices, cryptocurrencies, or other instruments.
Set your chart timezone to UK time if using Killzone filters.
Adjust input parameters based on your preferred sessions and risk tolerance.
Look for green “VALID BUY FU” labels below bars for bullish fakeout entries.
Look for red “VALID SELL FU” labels above bars for bearish fakeout entries.
Use the alert system to receive notifications on setups.
Combine with your existing analysis or risk management strategy for entries, stops, and profit targets.
Why Use FU + SMI Validator?
Fakeouts are some of the most lucrative but tricky setups for many traders. Without proper filters, they can lead to false entries and losses. This script integrates price action, momentum, volatility, and session timing into one package, providing a robust tool to spot high-quality fakeout opportunities and improve trading confidence.
Limitations
Requires chart to be set to UK timezone for session filters.
Designed specifically for 30-minute timeframe — performance on other timeframes may vary.
Momentum is a proxy, not a direct SMI calculation.
Like all indicators, best used in conjunction with sound risk management and other analysis tools.
Potential Enhancements
Conversion into a full strategy script for backtesting entries and exits.
Addition of other momentum indicators (RSI, MACD) or volume filters.
Customizable time zones or auto time zone detection.
Multi-timeframe analysis capabilities.
Visual dashboard for summary of signal stats.
Bar Statistics - DELTA/OI/TOTAL/BUY/SELL/LONGS/SHORTSBar Statistics - Advanced Volume & Open Interest Analysis
Overview
The Bar Statistics indicator is a comprehensive analytical tool designed to provide traders with detailed insights into market microstructure through advanced volume analysis, open interest tracking, and market flow detection. This indicator transforms complex market data into easily digestible visual information, displaying six key metrics in customizable colored boxes that update in real-time.
Unlike traditional volume indicators that only show basic volume data, this indicator combines multiple data sources to reveal the underlying forces driving price movement, including volume delta calculations from lower timeframes, open interest changes, and estimated market positioning.
What Makes This Indicator Unique
1. Multi-Timeframe Volume Delta Precision
The indicator utilizes lower timeframe data (default 1-second) to calculate highly accurate volume delta measurements, providing much more precise buy/sell pressure analysis than standard timeframe-based calculations. This approach captures intraday volume dynamics that are often missed by conventional indicators.
2. Real-Time Updates
Unlike many indicators that only update on bar completion, this tool provides live updates for the developing candle, allowing traders to see evolving market conditions as they happen.
3. Market Flow Analysis
The unique "L/S" (Long/Short) metric combines open interest changes with price/volume direction to estimate net market positioning, helping identify when participants are accumulating or distributing positions.
4. Adaptive Visual Intensity
The gradient color system automatically adjusts based on historical context, making it easy to identify when current values are significant relative to recent market activity.
5. Complete Customization
Every aspect of the display can be customized, from the order of metrics to individual color schemes, allowing traders to adapt the tool to their specific analysis needs.
6.All In One Solution
6 Metrics in one indicator no more using 5 different indicators.
Core Features Explained
DELTA (Volume Delta)
What it shows: Net difference between aggressive buy volume and aggressive sell volume
Calculation: Uses lower timeframe data to determine whether each trade was initiated by buyers or sellers
Interpretation:
Positive values indicate aggressive buying pressure
Negative values indicate aggressive selling pressure

L/S (Net Long/Short Bias)
What it shows: Estimated net change in long vs short market positions
Calculation method: Combines open interest changes with price/volume direction using configurable logic
Scenarios analyzed:
New Longs: Rising OI + Rising Price/Volume = Long position accumulation
Liquidated Longs: Falling OI + Falling Price/Volume = Long position exits
New Shorts: Rising OI + Falling Price/Volume = Short position accumulation
Covered Shorts: Falling OI + Rising Price/Volume = Short position exits
Result: Net bias toward long (positive) or short (negative) market sentiment
TOTAL (Total Volume)
What it shows: Standard volume for the current bar
Purpose: Provides context for other metrics and baseline activity measurement
Enhanced display: Uses gradient intensity based on recent volume history
BUY (Estimated Buy Volume)

Strong Candle Detector (Candles Close UP/DOWN)The Strong Candle Detector highlights candles that close decisively above or below the previous candle’s range, which means the resting liquidity of the previous candle has been entirely absorbed.
How it works:
A candle is considered Bullish (UP) when its close is higher than the previous candle’s high.
A candle is considered Bearish (DOWN) when its close is lower than the previous candle’s low.
This tool helps traders:
Spot strong breakouts or breakdowns.
Know when a liquidity sweep of a previous candle's extremes has failed
Quickly identify potential momentum continuation or reversal points.
Improve chart clarity by emphasizing only significant candles.
⚠️ Note: This indicator does not provide buy/sell signals. It is meant as a visual aid to support your trading strategy.
