HTF Frequency Zone [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
HTF Frequency Zone highlights the dominant price level (Point of Control) and the full high–low expansion of any higher timeframe — Daily, Weekly, or Monthly. It captures the frequency of closes inside each HTF candle and plots the most traded “frequency zone”, allowing traders to easily see where price spent the most time and where buy/sell pressure accumulated.
This tool transforms each higher-timeframe bar into a fully visualized structure:
• Top = HTF high
• Bottom = HTF low
• Midline = HTF Frequency POC
• Color-coded zones = bullish or bearish bias
• Labels = counts of bullish and bearish candles inside the HTF range
It is designed to give traders an immediate understanding of high-timeframe balance, imbalance, and price attraction zones.
🔵 CONCEPTS
HTF Partitioning — Each Weekly/Daily/Monthly candle is converted into a dedicated zone with its own High, Low, and Frequency Point of Control.
Frequency POC (Most Touched Price) — The indicator divides the HTF range into 100 bins and counts how many times price closed near each level.
Dominant Zone — The level with the highest frequency becomes the HTF “Value Zone,” plotted as a bold central line.
Directional Bias —
• Bullish HTF zone
• Bearish HTF zone
Internal Candle Counting — Within each HTF period the indicator counts:
• Buy candles (close > open)
• Sell candles (close < open)
This reveals whether intraperiod flow was bullish or bearish.
HTF Structure Blocks — High, Low, and POC are connected across the entire higher-timeframe duration, showing the real shape of HTF balance.
🔵 FEATURES
Automatic HTF Zone Construction — Generates a complete price zone every time the selected timeframe flips (Daily / Weekly / Monthly).
Dynamic High & Low Extraction — The indicator scans every bar inside the HTF window to find true extremes of the range.
100-Level Frequency Scan — Each close within the period is assigned to a bin, creating a detailed distribution of price interaction.
HTF POC Highlighting — The most frequent price level is plotted with a bold red line for immediate visual clarity.
Bull/Bear Coloring —
• Green → Bullish HTF zone.
• Orange → Bearish HTF zone.
Zone Shading — High–Low range is filled with a semi-transparent color matching trend direction.
Buy/Sell Candle Counters — Printed at the top and bottom of each HTF block, showing how many internal candles were bullish or bearish.
POC Label — Displays frequency count (how many touches) at the POC level.
Adaptive Threshold Warning — If bars inside the HTF window are too few (<10), the indicator warns the trader to switch timeframe.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Higher-Timeframe Biasing — Read the zone color to determine if the HTF candle leaned bullish or bearish.
Value Zone Reactions — Price often reacts to the Frequency POC; use it as support/resistance or liquidity magnet.
Range Context — Identify when price is trading near HTF highs (breakout potential) or lows (reversal potential).
Momentum Evaluation — More bullish internal candles = internal buying pressure; more bearish = internal selling pressure.
Swing Trading — Use HTF zones as the “macro map,” then execute trades on lower timeframes aligned with the zone structure.
Liquidity Awareness — The HTF POC often aligns with algorithmic liquidity levels, making it a strong reaction point.
🔵 CONCLUSION
HTF Frequency Zone transforms raw higher-timeframe candles into detailed distribution zones that reveal true market behavior inside the HTF structure. By showing highs, lows, buying/selling activity, and the most interacted price level (Frequency POC), this tool becomes invaluable for traders who want to align executions with powerful HTF levels, liquidity magnets, and structural zones.
Highertimeframes
BETradez HTF Order Blocks BETradez HTF Order Blocks identifies and displays order blocks from higher timeframes on your chart. It detects Break of Structure (BOS) events, when price breaks above the highest high or below the lowest low—then scans back up to 200 bars to find the last opposing candle, which becomes the order block zone. The indicator displays up to 5 active order blocks per side (bullish in green, bearish in red), automatically extends them forward in time, and can hide invalidated blocks when price violates them. You can customize the timeframe (use chart or a custom higher timeframe), adjust forward extension, show optional wick lines and center lines, and control label text size. Order blocks often act as support/resistance zones where institutional activity occurred, making them useful for identifying potential entry areas, support/resistance levels, and risk management points in multi-timeframe analysis.
Arkham ORB Indicator 3.815-Minute ORB Breakout Indicator with Volume Confirmation & Dynamic Risk Management
This closed-source indicator identifies high-probability breakout opportunities during the New York session open (8:30-9:30 AM ET) using a systematic Opening Range Breakout methodology combined with volume validation and adaptive volatility-based risk management.
Core Methodology - How It Works
Opening Range Framework
The indicator establishes the Opening Range by tracking the high and low of the first 15 minutes of the trading session (8:30-8:45 AM ET). This range represents the initial price discovery zone where early participants establish equilibrium. Breakouts above the high or below the low signal potential directional moves as liquidity enters the market during the full NY session.
Volume-Based Breakout Validation
To distinguish genuine breakouts from false moves, the indicator employs a rolling volume analysis system. It calculates a 12-period median of volume and applies a 1.2x threshold multiplier. Only price movements accompanied by volume exceeding this threshold are flagged as valid breakout signals. This approach filters out low-conviction breakouts that often occur in choppy, low-participation conditions and significantly reduces false signals at ORB levels.
Adaptive Volatility-Based Stop Loss Calculation
Unlike fixed-point stop losses, this indicator uses a dynamic calculation based on a 10-day lookback of historical ORB ranges. The stop loss is derived by analyzing recent Opening Range sizes and applying a 0.5x multiplier to the average. This creates three key advantages:
Compression adaptation: When recent ORBs shrink (low volatility), stops automatically tighten to reduce risk exposure
Expansion adaptation: When recent ORBs expand (high volatility), stops widen to prevent premature exits on legitimate moves
Hybrid intelligence: The system detects outlier volatility days by comparing current ORB size to the 10-day average. When divergence exceeds 50%, it recognizes abnormal conditions and adjusts stop placement accordingly rather than blindly using historical averages
Multi-Entry Risk Framework
The indicator recognizes that different traders enter at different points relative to the ORB level. It provides simultaneous risk calculations for three entry strategies:
Direct ORB Entry (0-point offset): Immediate breakout entries at the ORB high/low
Pullback Entry 1 (default 5.5 points): Conservative entries waiting for initial retracements
Pullback Entry 2 (default 11.0 points): Deeper retest entries for very conservative approaches
Each entry type displays independently calculated metrics (stop loss distance, contract sizing, take profit levels) that account for the actual entry point's distance from the ORB level. This ensures accurate position sizing and risk/reward ratios regardless of which entry method you use.
Smart Volatility Detection & Alerts
The indicator continuously compares the current day's ORB size against the 10-day historical average. When divergence exceeds a configurable threshold (default 50%), it alerts you to abnormal market conditions:
Compression warnings: When today's ORB is 50%+ smaller than average (potential low-volatility trap)
Expansion warnings: When today's ORB is 50%+ larger than average (potential news event or unusual volatility)
This allows you to adjust expectations and position sizing based on whether current conditions match your backtested historical environment.
Risk Management Safeguards
Min/Max Stop Loss Caps
To prevent extreme stop placements in unusual conditions:
Minimum stop: 35 points (prevents overly tight stops that get hit by noise)
Maximum stop: 75 points (caps risk exposure during extreme volatility events)
Both caps are fully adjustable and can be toggled on/off
Contract Rounding & Risk Display
The indicator automatically rounds to whole contracts and displays real-time risk metrics including:
Suggested stop loss level (adjusted for entry offset + volatility)
Number of contracts (sized to your account risk parameters)
Suggested take profit level (maintains your configured risk/reward ratio)
Dollar risk and potential profit for each entry type
What Makes This Original
This indicator combines several methodological elements that work together as a cohesive risk management system:
Volume confirmation prevents trading every ORB breakout indiscriminately
Adaptive volatility stops ensure your risk scales with current market conditions, not fixed assumptions
Multi-entry framework provides accurate calculations for various entry styles without requiring separate indicators
Outlier detection warns when today's conditions deviate significantly from your backtested norms
Integrated position sizing removes the mental math from determining contracts and risk/reward
Rather than simply plotting ORB levels or using fixed stops, this system adapts to changing volatility while validating breakouts with participation metrics.
How to Use It

Equal Highs & Lows
This feature automatically detects and marks Equal Highs (EQH) and Equal Lows (EQL) with full control over visuals and behavior.
Users can customize line colors, widths, and styles, label size, color, background transparency and text offset.
The logic uses an optimized scanning and caching system that maintains smooth performance even on higher timeframes.
It provides a precise and adaptive way to identify structural liquidity points whilst keeping the chart clean and readable.
Killzones & Session Pivots
Plots the main trading sessions such as Asia, London and New York (AM, Lunch, PM) with full flexibility and styling options.
Each session can be enabled or disabled individually, with its own color, transparency and label preferences.
Session highs and lows are automatically tracked and plotted as pivots with extension modes like Until Mitigated or Past Mitigation.
This system gives traders the ability to organize market sessions exactly how they prefer whilst keeping the chart consistent and efficient.
Daily Pivots and Tier System
Alongside session pivots, the script tracks daily highs and lows to provide a broader structural view of price. These pivots are stored and displayed on the chart with their appearance updating automatically when price interacts with them.
The system includes a unique tier-based visibility filter that maintains a clean chart by preventing duplicate or overlapping pivots. Recent daily pivots are cached and compared to session pivots and when two levels fall within a defined proximity, the redundant one is automatically hidden. This creates a clear hierarchy of daily and session levels, keeping the most relevant structure visible whilst removing noise.
All aspects of the daily pivot system are fully customizable, including the number of tracked pivots, color, style settings and how mitigated levels are handled. The caching and filtering logic ensures smooth performance and a visually organized workspace even as the data updates in real time.

Double Moving Average█ OVERVIEW
The Double Moving Average (DMA) smooths one moving average with a second moving average.
Includes moving average type, higher timeframe, offset, alerts, and style settings for all of the indicator's visual components. This indicator includes an optional line and label to indicate the latest value of the DMA that repaints.
█ CONCEPTS
Shorter term moving averages, especially in choppy markets, can rapidly increase and decrease their slope. Which could lead some traders into assuming that the series trend may continue at that steeper slope. By smoothing a moving average with another one, the magnitude of rapid choppy movements is mitigated.
█ FEATURES
DMA Customization
Most inputs have a tooltip that can be read by interacting with the information icon to guide users.
For both moving averages in the DMA, users can set the lookback length and moving average type independently. Available moving average types include:
Simple Moving Average
Exponential Moving Average
Hull Moving Average
Weighted Moving Average
Volume Weighted Moving Average
A bar offset setting is included for shifting the indicator's placement. Using different lookback combinations for both averages alongside an offset can create equivalent values of other types of moving averages not included in this indicator. For example, if the default lookback settings are offset by 1 bar, this duplicates a 4 period centered moving average.
Colors for the DMA's plot can toggle between a single "base" color, or using increasing and decreasing colors. Changing the plot's style, line style, and width is also supported.
Latest Value Line and Label
The latest value of the DMA plot is replaced by default with a feature called the Latest Value Line and Label: a stylized line and label to help indicate the part of the indicator that can repaint from the parts that don't repaint. Data used to draw this feature is calculated separately from the indicator's confirmed historical calculations.
A label is included to display the latest value of the DMA which includes complete style settings. The style of both the line and label are completely customizable; every style feature that can be included has a corresponding input you can set.
Toggling off the Latest Value Line and Label feature will cause all the respective style inputs to deactivate so that they're no longer in focus or editable until the feature is toggled on again.
Higher Timeframes
Users can plot the DMA from higher timeframes on their chart.
As new bars print, the non-repainting DMA historical plot uses the last confirmed higher timeframe value. The repainting Latest Value Line and Label will update with the most recent higher timeframe value only for the latest bar. If the Latest Value Line feature is toggled off, the last confirmed higher timeframe DMA value is plotted up to the latest bar.
The built-in Moving Average Simple (SMA) indicator includes several of the features in this indicator, like an option for using higher timeframe. However, by default, it plots no values except on bars with higher timeframe close updates. Disabling "Wait for timeframe closes" to get values between updates causes repainting in both replay mode and realtime bars.
Since the calculations that repaint are separate and optional in the DMA indicator, historical plotted values will not repaint in replay mode or on realtime bars while using higher timeframes.
Alerts
There are two DMA value options when creating an alert:
DMA Latest Value: Use the latest updating DMA Value. The same value as the Latest Value Line.
DMA Last Confirmed Value: Use the last historical closed DMA value.
The default alert option is DMA Latest because most users expect alerts when the price crosses the latest updating DMA value. The Last Confirmed Value alert option uses the DMA value from the latest confirmed historical bar.
When creating an alert you should see a "Caution!" warning saying, "This is due to calculations being based on an indicator or strategy that can get repainted." This warning is intentional because the DMA indicator's Latest Value Line and Label feature is supposed to repaint in order to display the latest value.
█ FOR Pine Script™ CODERS
StyleLibrary is used to create user-friendly plot, line, and label style enum type inputs. The library's functions then take those user inputs and convert them into the appropriate values/built-in constants to customize styles for plot, line, and label functions.
Titles for #region blocks are included after #endregion statements for clarity when multiple #endregion statements occur.
This indicator utilizes the new active parameter for style inputs of togglable features.
Auto Hourly Deviations {Module+}Description
This indicator automatically calculates and visualizes the prior hour’s price structure and its deviation levels. By combining core reference lines (high, low, EQ, quarters, open) with dynamic deviation levels and shaded zones, it provides a framework for understanding intraday price behavior relative to the most recent hourly range.
The tool has three functional sections that work together:
Core Hourly Structure – Captures the prior hour’s high, low, EQ (50%), and quarter levels (25% and 75%), plus the current open.
Deviation Levels – Projects standardized deviation multiples (±0.33, ±0.5, ±0.66, ±1.0, ±1.33, ±1.66, ±2.0) above and below the prior hour’s range.
Shading & Anchoring – Fills zones between key deviation levels for visual emphasis, while allowing projection offsets and anchor line references for precise chart alignment.
Together, these layers give traders a structured map of price movement around hourly ranges, making it easier to track expansion, retracement, and trend continuation.
1. Core Hourly Structure
Plots the prior hour’s high and low as key reference points.
Automatically calculates EQ (midpoint), 25%, and 75% levels.
Tracks the open of the current hour for immediate orientation.
Optional anchor line marks the start of each hourly window for time alignment.
Use: Frames the “hourly box” and subdivides it for intraday structure analysis.
2. Deviation Levels
Uses the prior hour’s range as a baseline.
Projects deviation levels above and below: ±0.33, ±0.5, ±0.66, ±1.0, ±1.33, ±1.66, and ±2.0.
Each level can be individually toggled with full line/label styling.
Use: Quantifies how far price is moving relative to the last hour’s volatility — useful for spotting overextensions, retraces, and probable reaction zones.
3. Shading & Anchoring
Shaded zones between selected deviation bands (e.g., +0.33 to +0.66 or +1.33 to +1.66) highlight potential liquidity or reaction areas.
Projection offsets allow levels to extend forward into future bars for planning.
Labels and color controls make the chart highly customizable.
Use: Provides quick visual cues for potential trading ranges and deviations without clutter.
Intended Use
This is a visualization tool, not a buy/sell system. Traders can use it to:
Track how price interacts with the prior hour’s high/low.
Measure hourly expansion through deviation levels.
Spot retracements or continuation zones inside and beyond the prior hour’s range.
Limitations & Disclaimers
Levels are derived from completed hourly candles; they do not predict outcomes.
Deviations are static calculations and do not account for fundamentals or volatility shifts.
This indicator does not provide financial advice or trading signals.
For informational and educational purposes only.
Trading involves risk; always apply proper risk management.

ICT HTF Candles [Pro] (fadi)The ICT HTF Candles shows you multi-timeframe price action by plotting up to six higher timeframe candles on your chart, scaled to real price levels. Set candle counts per timeframe or toggle them off for a clean view, saving you time switching between charts. This helps you spot trends and reversals quickly, align trades with the market’s direction, and time setups like sweeps or bounces better. From scalping on the 1m to swinging on the 4H, it simplifies ICT and Smart Money Concepts (SMC), revealing trend shifts and institutional moves clearly. Once you use it, trading without this clarity just won’t feel right.
Key Features:
In-Depth Price Action Levels
These levels track ICT PD arrays and confluences across timeframes, making it easy to see how price action flows from higher timeframes and what your setup faces. Is your 5m trade about to run into a 1H bearish order block? Did it bounce off a higher timeframe FVG and create an SMT with a correlated asset? They make your chart a clear roadmap to market structure, helping you find strong setups, save time, and align with institutional moves:
Change in State of Delivery (CISD): In ICT trading, CISD marks potential reversal levels on each timeframe by showing the open of the highest series of up (green) candles for a bullish shift or the open of the lowest series of down (red) candles for a bearish shift. These levels are set at the opening price of the first candle in those runs, highlighting where the market turns. The indicator makes these levels easy to spot across timeframes, so you can track reversal points clearly. You can set your own confirmation criteria—a close or wick above/below the CISD line (bearish/bullish) or a close or wick above/below the high/low—to verify the CISD level cross. When confirmed, there is a high probability that we have a change in trend, and a reversal order block forms. CISD helps you track these reversal levels and confirm market shifts, making multi-timeframe analysis straightforward.
Order Blocks: When a CISD level cross is confirmed, the price is now below a series of up (green) candles or above a series of down (red) candles, marking these candles as order blocks that usually support the new trend direction. The indicator shows these levels clearly across timeframes, making it easy to spot high-probability reversal or consolidation areas. Keep in mind that price may sometimes move to mitigate an imbalance, so use your best judgment based on your multi-timeframe analysis to confirm they meet your trading criteria.
Trend Bias: Traders often struggle figuring out market bias—guessing the trend wrong, losing on trades against the flow, or missing how lower and higher timeframes line up. The Trend Bias feature tracks order blocks and change in state of delivery, displaying bullish or bearish trends for each timeframe to help you choose trades that go with the market’s direction. The indicator shows these trends clearly across timeframes, so you can quickly see if the 5m matches the 1H or if you’re going against the bigger trend. This makes it easier to avoid bad trades and make decisions faster, keeping you on track with setups that follow the main trend.
Immediate Rebalance: When looking at price action, you’ll see the market doesn’t usually leave behind many Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). That’s because the market is efficient and always rebalancing any inefficiencies. When the market starts a strong move, the last candle will usually close above the previous candle high (for up moves) or below the low (for down moves). At this point, the market will do one of two things: immediately rebalance by retracing first, or have a small retracement but leave behind an FVG. The Immediate Rebalance feature tracks rebalance levels across multiple timeframes, clearly showing where price rebalances. This helps traders have a better expectation of how the market may need to retrace and anticipate Power of Three (PO3) setups by being ready for a Judas swing to rebalance the imbalance.
Fair Value Gaps and Volume Imbalances: If the market fails to immediately rebalance, it will usually attempt to come back and rebalance it at a later time. FVGs and VIs give you a clear area where the price might be heading if it starts breaking structure on lower timeframes. These inefficiencies—price gaps (FVGs) or aggressive moves (VIs)—show where the market’s working to fix imbalances. The Fair Value Gaps and Volume Imbalances feature tracks these levels across timeframes.
Previous Candle Levels: The Previous Candle Levels feature marks the high, low, and middle of the prior candle on each timeframe, helping you identify key price levels for sweeps, bounces, or breakouts. It tracks the candle’s high and low as its extremes and the middle as the 50% mark, which you can set to calculate using the high-to-low range or the open-to-close range. These levels can provide tradable setups on lower timeframes.
Smart Money Techniques (SMT): What’s an ICT indicator without an SMT feature to track cracks in correlated assets? The ICT HTF Candles monitors your chosen correlated assets, like EUR/USD and GBP/USD or SQ and NQ, for signs of strength or weakness to use as confluence with other features and build the case for A+ setups. The SMT feature spots divergences when one asset makes a higher high or lower low while the other doesn’t follow, hinting at potential reversals or market shifts. It tests SMT using two immediate candles, since higher timeframes (HTFs) create larger gaps on lower timeframes. Traders can easily see these divergence levels, like a 15m SMT lining up with a 1H order block or CISD, helping you confirm high-probability setups and strengthen trade entries with multi-timeframe confluence.
Higher Timeframe Candles (Dynamic Display)Key Features:
1. Higher Timeframe Candles Visualization:
Displays up to 5 candles from a user-selected higher timeframe (e.g., 15-minute, hourly).
Each candle includes:
Body (open-close range) and wicks (high-low range).
Customizable appearance settings for width, colors, and transparency.
2. Horizontal Price Levels:
Calculates and plots important levels based on the higher timeframe candles:
Max High: Highest price among the displayed candles.
Min Low: Lowest price among the displayed candles.
Midpoint: The midpoint between Max High and Min Low.
Quarter Points: 25% and 75% levels within the Max-Min range.
Each level's line appearance (color, width, style) can be customized, and price labels can be displayed.
3. Fair Value Gaps (FVG):
Detects bullish and bearish fair value gaps (FVGs) based on three consecutive candles:
Bullish FVG: Middle candle's low is higher than the previous candle's high.
Bearish FVG: Middle candle's high is lower than the previous candle's low.
Highlights FVGs with colored boxes and optional labels showing gap height.
4. Inside/Outside Bar Detection:
Identifies inside bars (current candle is entirely within the previous candle) and outside bars (current candle exceeds the previous candle's range).
Labels these patterns above the candles for easy identification.
5. Alerts for Key Levels:
Alerts are triggered when the current price crosses:
Max High
Min Low
Midpoint
Alerts help traders act without monitoring the chart constantly.
6. Customization Options:
Fully customizable input options for candles, levels, FVGs, and labels:
Appearance settings: Colors, widths, styles, transparency.
Toggle visibility for specific features (e.g., FVGs, labels, quarter points).
Label precision and positioning.
Higher Timeframe TrendMap [BigBeluga]🔵HTF TrendMap
A powerful visual overlay that brings higher timeframe market structure directly onto your intraday chart.
This tool maps directional bias, trend strength, and dynamic range boundaries from a user-selected HTF (like Daily or 4H), offering a real-time confluence layer for scalpers, day traders, and swing traders.
By plotting the evolving average (HL2), it acts as a volatility-weighted trend anchor, allowing you to align lower timeframe entries with higher timeframe intent.
Technical Overview:
At the close of each higher timeframe (HTF) candle, the indicator stores the high, low, and calculates the HL2 midpoint. These values are then referenced on the lower timeframe chart to plot trend direction and price boundaries.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Maps the selected higher timeframe (HTF) (e.g., Daily) onto your current chart.
At the close of each HTF candle , it starts to calculate and store the highest, lowest, and average (HL2) price levels .
The average (HL2) value is treated as the HTF trend baseline —plotted in orange for uptrend , blue for downtrend .
Visual curve thickens and fades to show progress through the HTF period (stronger color = fresher data).
Horizontal dashed lines show HTF high and low levels that persist until the next period closes.
On every HTF close, two price labels are printed for the high and low levels.
Vertical separators visually mark the start of each HTF candle for easy structural recognition.
A real-time dashboard shows selected HTF, current trend direction (🢁/🢃), and updates dynamically.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use the HTF average line as a bias filter —only long when the trend is up (orange), short when down (blue).
HTF high/low labels help identify key breakout or rejection zones .
Combine with intraday systems or reversal tools for multi-timeframe confluence setups .
Ideal for scalpers and swing traders who rely on HTF momentum shifts .
🔵 CONCLUSION
HTF TrendMap provides a clean, data-rich layer of higher timeframe context to any chart. With adaptive trend coloring, volatility mapping, and real-time data labeling, it enables traders to stay in sync with macro structure while executing on the micro.
CSCMultiTimeframeToolsLibrary "CSCMultiTimeframeTools"
Calculates instant higher timeframe values for higher timeframe analysis with zero lag.
getAdjustedLookback(current_tf_minutes, higher_tf_minutes, length)
Calculate adjusted lookback period for higher timeframe conversion.
Parameters:
current_tf_minutes (int) : Current chart timeframe in minutes (e.g., 5 for 5m).
higher_tf_minutes (int) : Target higher timeframe in minutes (e.g., 15 for 15m).
length (int) : Base length value (e.g., 14 for RSI/MFI).
Returns: Adjusted lookback period (length × multiplier).
Purpose and Benefits of the TimeframeTools Library
This library is designed to solve a critical pain point for traders who rely on higher timeframe (HTF) indicator values while analyzing lower timeframe (LTF) charts. Traditional methods require waiting for multiple candles to close—for example, to see a 1-hour RSI on a 5-minute chart, you’d need 12 closed candles (5m × 12 = 60m) before the value updates. This lag means missed opportunities, delayed signals, and inefficient decision-making.
Why Traders Need This
Whether you’re scalping (5M/15M) or swing trading (1H/4H), this library bridges the gap between timeframes, giving you HTF context in real time—so you can act faster, with confidence.
How This Library Eliminates the Waiting Game
By dynamically calculating the adjusted lookback period, the library allows:
Real-time HTF values on LTF charts – No waiting for candle closes.
Accurate conversions – A 14-period RSI on a 1-hour chart translates to 168 periods (14 × 12) on a 5-minute chart, ensuring mathematical precision.
Flexible application – Works with common indicators like RSI, MFI, CCI, and moving averages (though confirmations should be done before publishing under your own secondary use).
Key Advantages Over Manual Methods
Speed: Instantly reflects HTF values without waiting for candle resolutions.
Adaptability: Adjusts automatically if the user changes timeframes or lengths.
Consistency: Removes human error in manual period calculations.
Limitations to Note
Not a magic bullet – While it solves the lag issue, traders should still:
Validate signals with price action or additional confirmations.
Be mindful of extreme lookback lengths (e.g., a 200-period daily SMA on a 1-minute chart requires 28,800 periods, which may strain performance).

Momentum Nexus Oscillator [UAlgo]The "Momentum Nexus Oscillator " indicator is a comprehensive momentum-based tool designed to provide traders with visual cues on market conditions using multiple oscillators. By combining four popular technical indicators—RSI (Relative Strength Index), VZO (Volume Zone Oscillator), MFI (Money Flow Index), and CCI (Commodity Channel Index)—this heatmap offers a holistic view of the market's momentum.
The indicator plots two lines: one representing the current chart’s combined momentum score and the other representing a higher timeframe’s (HTF) score, if enabled. Through smooth gradient color transitions and easy-to-read signals, the Momentum Nexus Heatmap allows traders to easily identify potential trend reversals or continuation patterns.
Traders can use this tool to detect overbought or oversold conditions, helping them anticipate possible long or short trade opportunities. The option to use a higher timeframe enhances the flexibility of the indicator for longer-term trend analysis.
🔶 Key Features
Multi-Oscillator Approach: Combines four popular momentum oscillators (RSI, VZO, MFI, and CCI) to generate a weighted score, providing a comprehensive picture of market momentum.
Dynamic Color Heatmap: Utilizes a smooth gradient transition between bullish and bearish colors, reflecting market momentum across different thresholds.
Higher Timeframe (HTF) Compatibility: Includes an optional higher timeframe input that displays a separate score line based on the same momentum metrics, allowing for multi-timeframe analysis.
Customizable Parameters: Adjustable RSI, VZO, MFI, and CCI lengths, as well as overbought and oversold levels, to match the trader’s strategy or preference.
Signal Alerts: Built-in alert conditions for both the current chart and higher timeframe scores, notifying traders when long or short entry signals are triggered.
Buy/Sell Signals: Displays visual signals (▲ and ▼) on the chart when combined scores reach overbought or oversold levels, providing clear entry cues.
User-Friendly Visualization: The heatmap is separated into four sections representing each indicator, providing a transparent view of how each contributes to the overall momentum score.
🔶 Interpreting Indicator:
Combined Score
The indicator generates a combined score by weighing the individual contributions of RSI, VZO, MFI, and CCI. This score ranges from 0 to 100 and is plotted as a line on the chart. Lower values suggest potential oversold conditions, while higher values indicate overbought conditions.
Color Heatmap
The indicator divides the combined score into four distinct sections, each representing one of the underlying momentum oscillators (RSI, VZO, MFI, and CCI). Bullish (greenish) colors indicate upward momentum, while bearish (grayish) colors suggest downward momentum.
Long/Short Signals
When the combined score drops below the oversold threshold (default is 26), a long signal (▲) is displayed on the chart, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
When the combined score exceeds the overbought threshold (default is 74), a short signal (▼) is shown, signaling a potential sell or short opportunity.
Higher Timeframe Analysis
If enabled, the indicator also plots a line representing the combined score for a higher timeframe. This can be used to align lower timeframe trades with the broader trend of a higher timeframe, providing added confirmation.
Signals for long and short entries are also plotted for the higher timeframe when its combined score reaches overbought or oversold levels.
🔶Purpose of Using Multiple Technical Indicators
The combination of RSI, VZO, MFI, and CCI in the Momentum Nexus Heatmap provides a comprehensive approach to analyzing market momentum by leveraging the unique strengths of each indicator. This multi-indicator method minimizes the limitations of using just one tool, resulting in more reliable signals and a clearer understanding of market conditions.
RSI (Relative Strength Index)
RSI contributes by measuring the strength and speed of recent price movements. It helps identify overbought or oversold levels, signaling potential trend reversals or corrections. Its simplicity and effectiveness make it one of the most widely used indicators in technical analysis, contributing to momentum assessment in a straightforward manner.
VZO (Volume Zone Oscillator)
VZO adds the critical element of volume to the analysis. By assessing whether price movements are supported by significant volume, VZO distinguishes between price changes that are driven by real market conviction and those that might be short-lived. It helps validate the strength of a trend or alert the trader to potential weakness when price moves are unsupported by volume.
MFI (Money Flow Index)
MFI enhances the analysis by combining price and volume to gauge money flow into and out of an asset. This indicator provides insight into the participation of large players in the market, showing if money is pouring into or exiting the asset. MFI acts as a volume-weighted version of RSI, giving more weight to volume shifts and helping traders understand the sustainability of price trends.
CCI (Commodity Channel Index)
CCI contributes by measuring how far the price deviates from its statistical average. This helps in identifying extreme conditions where the market might be overextended in either direction. CCI is especially useful for spotting trend reversals or continuations, particularly during market extremes, and for identifying divergence signals.

libHTF[without request.security()]Library "libHTF"
libHTF: use HTF values without request.security()
This library enables to use HTF candles without request.security().
Basic data structure
Using to access values in the same manner as series variable.
The last member of HTF array is always latest current TF's data.
If new bar in HTF(same as last bar closes), new member is pushed to HTF array.
2nd from the last member of HTF array is latest fixed(closed) bar.
HTF: How to use
1. set TF
tf_higher() function selects higher TF. TF steps are ("1","5","15","60","240","D","W","M","3M","6M","Y").
example:
tfChart = timeframe.period
htf1 = tf_higher(tfChart)
2. set HTF matrix
htf_candle() function returns 1 bool and 1 matrix.
bool is a flag for start of new candle in HTF context.
matrix is HTF candle data(0:open,1:time_open,2:close,3:time_close,4:high,5:time:high,6:low,7:time_low).
example:
=htf_candle(htf1)
3. how to access HTF candle data
you can get values using .lastx() method.
please be careful, return value is always float evenif it is "time". you need to cast to int time value when using for xloc.bartime.
example:
htf1open=m1.lastx("open")
htf1close=m1.lastx("close")
//if you need to use histrical value.
lastopen=open
lasthtf1open=m1.lastx("open",1)
4. how to store Data of HTF context
you have to use array to store data of HTF context.
array.htf_push() method handles the last member of array. if new_bar in HTF, it push new member. otherwise it set value to the last member.
example:
array a_close=array.new(1,na)
a_close.htf_push(b_new_bar1,m1.lastx("close"))
HTFsrc: How to use
1. how to setup src.
set_src() function is set current tf's src from string(open/high/low/close/hl2/hlc3/ohlc4/hlcc4).
set_htfsrc() function returns src array of HTF candle.
example:
_src="ohlc4"
src=set_src(_src)
htf1src=set_htfsrc(_src,b_new_bar1,m1)
(if you need to use HTF src in series float)
s_htf1src=htf1src.lastx()
HighLow: How to use
1. set HTF arrays
highlow() and htfhighlow() function calculates high/low and return high/low prices and time.
the functions return 1 int and 8arrays.
int is a flag for new high(1) or new low(-1).
arrays are high/low and return high/low data. float for price, int for time.
example
=
highlow()
=
htfhighlow(m1)
2. how to access HighLow data
you can get values using .lastx() method.
example:
if i_renew==1
myhigh=a_high.lastx()
//if you need to use histrical value.
myhigh=a_high.lastx(1)

Breakout Band v1.0This indicator uses a custom source to define a point of relativity to which regions are based off to aid in technical analysis.
Breakout Band's use is:
- Monitoring trends
- Defining trends
- Defining areas of consolidation
- Trend support / resistance levels
- Aid in technical analysis
However, the band provides information different to that of an EMA, as they are not created from the same source, ref Fig 1.
---
Fig 1
Breakout Band compared to an EMA, both with a length setting of 20.
---
The primary band uses your charts timeframe to plot the band. This can be useful for more immediate information, ref Fig 2.
Fig 2
BTC on a 15m chart with Breakout Band's Chart Timeframe option.
---
There is also a functionality for a higher timeframe band to be plotted ( currently limited to 4 higher timeframes ) which can help to view higher timeframe moves with lower timeframe information, ref Fig 3. The higher timeframe band has an added smoothing effect.
Fig 3.
The same chart as referenced in Fig 2., while using Breakout Bands HTF option ( 60m band ).
---
USING BREAKOUT BAND
The band provides potential areas of consolidation, as seen in Fig 4., and when price action falls outside of the band, it can be considered trending.
Fig 4.
Defining areas of consolidation, trends, and monitor trends with Breakout Band.
---
Different zones are given different colors. The closer to the middle of the band, the higher chance of reactivity. Meaning, there is a greater chance that price will have a reaction within this zone. Whether that be trend continuation or a break of structure, showing signs of weakness of a trend, ref Fig 5.
Fig 5.
Breakout Bands reactivity region showing an area of potential resistance, which price action enters, then the trend continues.
---
NOTE : The same principles apply if you're using the HTF band for monitoring HTF trends.
I hope you enjoy the Breakout Band. Should you encounter any issues or have any suggestions for improving this indicator, let me know.
Any and all feedback is appreciated.
Support Resistance Classification (VR) [LuxAlgo]The Support Resistance Classification (VR) indicator shows SR levels on any chart's visible range using higher time-frame data (HTF). Levels are classified 1 through 10 based on their strength, with lower values indicating stronger support/resistance levels.
This indicator uses visible range functionality, whereas if you adjust your chart to show previous price data, the indicator may show new levels.
🔶 USAGE
Certain indicators on higher timeframes can provide longer term support/resistance levels on lower timeframes. Users can use the provided levels on a chart visible range and use them as reference for future support/resistance levels.
The classification algorithm measures the strength of a support/resistance level using the entire chart visible range and is in a range of 1 to 10, with higher values indicating a weaker support/resistance.
Supports/resistances highlighted by the indicator can be used for future applications by marking them on the chart (quickly done with alt + h).
🔶 DETAILS
All calculations are based on what you see on the Visible Chart, as such changing the chart will recalculate the indicator.
Since only Swings which are not broken are included, every break would exclude that swing. Therefore, even when 'value' is chosen at Settings ('Value'), breaks are always calculated on the entire line.
🔶 SETTINGS
Fade: After x breaks the line becomes invisible
Value:
value:
• SMA, upper/lower: the breaks are triggered on the moving average itself
• Fibonacci Pivot Point levels, Previous High, Previous Low: only last HTF values can be used for breaks
• Swings (see SWING SETTINGS)
line:
• SMA, upper/lower: the breaks are triggered on the entire line, based on its latest value
• Fibonacci Pivot Point Levels, Previous High, Previous Low: breaks are triggered on the entire line, based on its latest value
• Swings (see SWING SETTINGS)
🔹 Swing Settings
Swings are always calculated at current timeframe, setting a HTF is not applicable on Swings.
Left/Right: for Swing calculation ( pivothigh , pivotlow )
Show: enables you to see the pivot points
🔹 Set
N°: The concerning number
TYPE:
• SMA (Simple Moving Average)
• Previous High/Low
• Upper/Lower ( Bollinger Bands )
• Pivot Point levels : "Fibonacci"
LENGTH: sets the 'Number of bars', needed for calculations (applicable for SMA, upper/lower)
MULT: sets the 'Standard deviation factor' (only applicable for upper/lower - BB)
HTF: sets 'Higher Time Frame' (applicable for SMA, upper/lower, Previous High/Low, Fibonacci)
🔹 Show Values
You can make up to 5 values visible (if you want to check/verify), except for Swings (see SWING SETTINGS)
To do so, enable (A -> E), and choose the N° you want to see.
This also is a useful tool if you're not sure which value you want to set.
TWA - HTF Candle ColorOverview:
This indicator is designed to assist trend traders by confirming the market's direction on a higher timeframe and providing overlays to determine the strength and longevity of the current trend. Its goal is to help traders develop a probability-based mindset, enabling them to remain in profitable trades for longer periods and to identify when the trend might be shifting.
Main features and how to use:
The main feature of the indicator is the green and red coloring of the candles. The candles can be used to determine market direction and use that bias to pick a trading direction. The contrarian candle overlay is another useful feature that helps trend traders identify potential trend reversals. To use this feature, traders should wait until the overlay candle coloring "clicks off" to determine the probability that the current move has reached its peak or bottom and to look for a larger retracement. The unique flexibility of this feature allows trend traders to see both sides of the story.
Calculations and what makes this original:
- It finds breaks of common fibonacci retracement and extension values on a higher time frame using my proprietary williams % R indicator to find
trend direction
- To help add more confirmation to trend direction the proprietary algorithm combines the above fibonacci breaks with confirmation from price
breaking beyond multiple deviations measured from bollinger bands.
- From your current charts timeframe it automatically calculates which higher timeframe to analyze.
- The above algorithm from the higher timeframe is distilled down to a green or red candle color on the chart to show market direction.
- It uses a blend of rsi and CCI to calculate contrarian candle coloring to show trend exhaustion.
Additional features
Contrarian candle coloring:
The contrarian candle coloring feature is designed to help trend traders see possible reversals. It overlays a different candle color on top of the HTF candles at certain periods. The unique feature of this addition is its ability to transform a trend-following indicator into a tops and bottom reversion indicator all in one. This flexibility allows traders to see both the contrarian and trend-following perspectives.
Enhanced probability:
This feature helps traders determine the probability of their potential trades long-running potential by changing the background color to green or red. Traders can use this information to help define their risk per trade. For example, if the candle coloring matches the background color, they might choose a long-running move, whereas if the candle coloring does not match the background color, they might opt for a scalping trade. The unique feature of this addition is how it gives traders the ability to view the market from different perspectives all on one screen.
Use Alternate Symbol:
Allows for the candle color to be derived from a separate symbol than the current chart .
Candle Color as Line:

ICT HTF Candles (fadi)Plotting a configurable higher timeframe on current chart's timeframe helps visualize price movement without changing timeframes. It also plots FVG and Volume Imbalance on the higher timeframe for easier visualization.
With ICT concepts, we usually wait for HTF break of structure and then find an entry on a lower timeframe. With this indicator, we can set it to the HTF and watch the develop of price action until the break of structure happens. We can then take an entry on the current timeframe.
