SignalViper Recon LiteSignalViper Recon Lite — Confluence-Based Market State Summary
Recon Lite is a streamlined market analysis tool that evaluates momentum and trend conditions to identify alignment between key analytical factors. It provides a real-time dashboard summarizing market state, helping traders quickly assess whether conditions favor directional moves or suggest caution.
Core Concepts & Logic
Recon Lite evaluates two primary analytical dimensions:
Momentum Analysis (RSI-Based)
- Evaluates price momentum strength and direction
- Identifies acceleration, deceleration, and reversal potential
- Detects overbought/oversold extremes
Trend Analysis (ADX/DMI-Based)
- Measures trend strength regardless of direction
- Determines whether bulls or bears control directional movement
- Identifies weak, ranging, or strong trending conditions
When both dimensions align in the same direction, Recon Lite identifies confluence — a state where momentum and trend agree, historically associated with higher-probability directional moves.
Narrative Interpretation Layer
Rather than displaying raw indicator values, Recon Lite translates conditions into contextual descriptions:
- "RISING - Accelerating" — Momentum gaining strength
- "BEARISH - but weakening" — Trend losing steam
- "OVERBOUGHT" / "OVERSOLD" — Extreme conditions detected
- "Trend losing steam" — Warning of potential reversal
Signal Tracking & Target Awareness
When confluence is detected, Recon Lite can track the signal with ATR-based target levels:
- Stop Loss — Risk-defined exit level
- TP1 / TP2 — Reward targets at configurable R:R ratios
The dashboard displays real-time proximity to these levels, including warnings when approaching key thresholds.

CVD Table + Alerts📌 Overview
CVD Table + Alerts is a pure order-flow indicator designed to track real buying and selling pressure using Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD).
It highlights momentum shifts and institutional participation through precise, non-repainting alerts, without cluttering your chart with unnecessary visuals.
This indicator does not predict price — it reveals what large participants are actually doing.
🔍 What This Indicator Does
1️⃣ Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)
Calculates CVD by separating volume into:
Buying volume (close ≥ open)
Selling volume (close < open)
Accumulates this data to show net demand vs supply over time.
This allows traders to see:
Whether moves are sponsored or weak
If price is rising on real buying or just drifting
2️⃣ CVD Flip Detection (Momentum Shift)
The indicator detects when:
CVD changes direction from the previous candle
This represents:
Shift from buyers → sellers
OR sellers → buyers
👉 Acts as an early warning signal before visible price structure changes like ChoCH or BOS.
3️⃣ CVD Burst Detection (Institutional Activity)
A CVD Burst alert triggers when:
The current CVD delta is abnormally large compared to recent averages
This typically signals:
Aggressive market orders
Institutional participation
Potential trend ignition
🔔 Alerts (Exact & Reliable)
This indicator generates only two alert types:
🔹 CVD Flip Alert
Triggered when order-flow direction changes.
CVD Flip! CVD: | Δ: | Direction: ↑ / ↓
🔹 CVD Burst Alert
Triggered when sudden volume imbalance appears.
CVD Burst! CVD: | Δ: | Direction: ↑ / ↓
Alert Behavior
✅ Fires only on candle close
✅ No repainting
✅ No historical spam
✅ One alert per bar maximum
📊 CVD Table (At-a-Glance Insight)
The built-in table shows:
Recent volume
CVD values
Delta direction (↑ / ↓)
Percentage change
Highlights major bull/bear deltas
This gives traders instant context without switching indicators.
🎯 How Traders Benefit
This indicator is best used as a confirmation and context tool, not a standalone strategy.
Ideal Use Cases:
Confirm ChoCH / BOS
Validate EMA-based trend direction
Filter false breakouts at S/R, Gann, Fib, VWAP
Identify trend days vs range days
Spot divergence between price and participation
Best Paired With:
EMA / trend filters
Market structure (ChoCH, BOS)
Support & Resistance
ATR / volatility analysis
⚠️ Important Notes
This is not a buy/sell signal generator
Designed for discretionary traders
Works best in liquid markets (indices, large caps, crypto majors)
🧠 Trading Philosophy
Price shows where it moved.
CVD shows who moved it.
This indicator helps you trade with participation, not hope.
ChromaFlows Momentum Index | LUPENIndicator Guide: ChromaFlows Momentum Index
Overview
The ChromaFlows Momentum Index is a next-generation momentum oscillator designed to filter out market noise and visualize pure trend strength. Unlike traditional indicators that often give conflicting signals, ChromaFlows uses a Consensus Algorithm. It simultaneously analyzes three distinct engines—RSI, Fast Stochastic, and Slow Stochastic—and only lights up when they all agree on the market direction.
The result is a fluid, glowing "Wave" that provides an immediate visual read on market sentiment:
Green Glow: Strong Bullish Consensus (Safe to buy/hold).
Red Glow: Strong Bearish Consensus (Safe to sell/short).
Gray/Neutral: Indecision or Choppy Market (Stay out or tread carefully).
Key Visual Components
1. The Gradient Wave (Main Oscillator)
This is the heartbeat of the indicator. It is usually based on the Slow Stochastic (customizable in settings) but its color is determined by the Consensus Logic.
How to read it: The higher the wave, the more overbought; the lower, the more oversold. However, pay attention to the Glow Intensity. A bright, solid color indicates all underlying indicators are aligned.
2. The SMI Line (Gold Line)
Overlaid on the wave is the SMI (Stochastic Momentum Index) Blau line. This acts as a fast-moving "Signal Line".
Usage: Watch for how this line interacts with the main wave. It leads price action and often signals reversals before they happen.
3. Signal Arrows (Triangles on the Wave)
▲ Cyan Triangle: SMI Crossover UP. This occurs when the Main Wave crosses above the SMI Signal line. This is a potential Long Entry.
▼ Magenta Triangle: SMI Crossover DOWN. This occurs when the Main Wave crosses below the SMI Signal line. This is a potential Short Entry.
4. Hull Trend Markers (Circles/Shapes at Edges)
Located at the very top and bottom of the indicator panel are the Hull Moving Average (HMA) filters.
Bottom Blue/Green Marker: The longer-term Hull Trend is UP.
Top Orange/Red Marker: The longer-term Hull Trend is DOWN.
How to Trade Strategy
✅ The "Flow" Setup (High Probability)
This strategy focuses on taking trades with the momentum consensus.
Wait for the Glow: Look for the Wave to turn Neon Green (Bullish) or Neon Red (Bearish). This confirms momentum is present.
Check the Filter: Ensure the Hull Trend Marker (at the top/bottom) matches the wave color (e.g., Blue marker + Green Wave).
The Trigger: Enter when a Triangle Signal Arrow appears in the direction of the color.
Example: Wave is Green + Cyan Triangle appears = STRONG BUY.
⚠️ The "Reversal" Setup (Aggressive)
Divergence: Price makes a new high, but the ChromaFlows Wave makes a lower high.
Color Shift: The wave changes from Green to Gray (Neutral), indicating momentum is dying.
The Trigger: Wait for a Magenta Triangle (Cross Down) to confirm the reversal.
⛔ The "No-Trade" Zone
When the Wave is Gray and hovering near the zero line, the markets are ranging or the indicators are conflicting. It is statistically safer to stand aside until the "ChromaFlow" (Green or Red color) returns.
Settings Configuration
Wave Source: Choose which oscillator drives the main wave (Default: Stochastic_2).
Consensus Sensitivity: Adjust the periods of the RSI and Stochastics to make the "Glow" appear faster (more signals) or slower (more filtering).
Visuals: All colors are fully customizable via Hex codes to match your chart theme.

ATR-Normalized VWMA DeviationThis indicator measures how far price deviates from the Volume-Weighted Moving Average ( VWMA ), normalized by market volatility ( ATR ). It identifies significant price reversal points by combining price structure and volatility-adjusted deviation behavior.
The core idea is to use VWMA as a dynamic trend anchor, then measure how far price travels away from it relative to recent volatility . This helps highlight when price has stretched too far and may be due for a reversal or pullback.
How it works:
VWMA deviation is calculated as the difference between price and the VWMA.
That deviation is divided by ATR (Average True Range) to normalize for current volatility.
The script tracks the highest and lowest normalized deviations over the chosen lookback period.
It also tracks price structure (highest/lowest highs/lows) over the same period.
A reversal signal is generated when a historical extreme in deviation aligns with a price structure extreme, and a confirmed reversal candle forms.
You get visual signals and color highlights where these conditions occur.
Settings explained:
Lookback period defines how many bars the script uses to find recent extremes.
ATR length controls how volatility is measured.
VWMA length controls how the volume-weighted moving average is calculated.
Signal filters help refine entries based on price vs deviation behavior.
Display options let you customize how signals and levels appear on the chart.
This indicator is especially useful for spotting potential turning points where price has moved far from VWMA relative to volatility, suggesting possible exhaustion or overextension.
Tips for use:
Combine with broader trend context (higher timeframe support/resistance).
Use with risk management rules (position sizing, stops) — signals are guides, not guaranteed entries.
Adjust lookback and ATR settings based on your trading timeframe and asset volatility.
Adaptive Scaled LevelsThis indicator allows users to manually define a list of price levels (e.g., round or psychological numbers) and automatically scales them to fit any asset's current price range using an intelligent anchor point. It then plots dynamic horizontal zones ideal for identifying potential supply/demand or reaction areas.
How It Works (Technical Methodology)
Manual Price List Input
Users enter a comma-separated list of price levels via a text area input (default example: 50,100,...,1400). These act as a "template" grid – often round numbers, psychological levels, or custom targets.
Auto-Scaling Logic (Core Innovation)
When enabled:
Calculates the average of the input list.
Determines a smart anchor price:
Default (Lock = 0): Close price of the highest-volume bar in the last user-defined lookback period (default 200 bars), fetched from a selectable timeframe (default Daily) via request.security().
Override: User can manually lock the anchor to any fixed price.
Computes a scale factor = Anchor / List Average.
Multiplies every input level by this factor to adapt the entire grid to the current market (e.g., scales low-price templates to BTC's 60k+ range).
Zone Construction
For each scaled level:
Creates a horizontal box centered on the level.
Height = Level × user-defined percentage (default 0.5%) for volatility-adjusted thickness.
Zones extend infinitely to the right for continuous reference.
Supply/Demand Coloring
Levels above current close: Supply color (default light gray) – potential resistance/overhead supply.
Levels below current close: Demand color (default cyan) – potential support/underlying demand.
Visual Elements
Transparent filled boxes with borders.
Optional labels showing "S" (Supply) or "D" (Demand) plus exact price.
Clean, non-cluttering design – redraws only on last bar for performance.
How to Use
This tool is perfect for plotting adaptive psychological/round number grids across any asset without manual adjustment.
Common Template: Use evenly spaced round numbers (e.g., 100 increments) as input – the script handles scaling.
BTC/ETH/Crypto: Enable auto-scaling with Daily timeframe anchor for high-volume alignment (often near fair value).
Forex/Stocks: Lower zone height % for tighter zones; use shorter lookback or lock anchor for stability.
Trading Applications:
Anticipate reactions/bounces at scaled levels (confluence with price action, volume, or order blocks).
Supply zones (above price): Potential short entries or take-profit targets.
Demand zones (below price): Potential long entries or stop-loss placement below.
Override anchor for specific analysis (e.g., lock to all-time high).
Best Practices: Combine with trend direction, higher-timeframe structure, or liquidity concepts for higher-probability setups.
Highly versatile – works on any timeframe/asset, especially volatile ones like cryptocurrencies where fixed levels quickly become irrelevant.
Disclaimer
This indicator is a technical analysis tool and should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always use proper risk management.
Advanced Multi-Level S/R ZonesAdvanced Multi-Level S/R Zones: The Comprehensive Guide
1. Introduction: The Evolution of Support & Resistance:
Support and Resistance (S/R) is the backbone of technical analysis. However, traditional methods of drawing these levels are often plagued by subjectivity. Two traders looking at the same chart will often draw two different lines. Furthermore, standard indicators often treat every price point equally, ignoring the critical context of Volume and Time.
The Advanced Multi-Level S/R Zones script represents a paradigm shift. It moves away from subjective line drawing and toward Quantitative Zoning. By utilizing statistical measures of variability (Standard Deviation, MAD, IQR) combined with Volume-Weighting and Time-Decay algorithms, this tool identifies where price is mathematically most likely to react. It treats S/R not as thin lines, but as dynamic zones of probability.
2. Core Logic and Mathematical Foundation:
To understand how to use this tool optimally, one must understand the "engine" under the hood. The script operates on four distinct pillars of logic:
A. Session-Based Data Collection:
The script does not look at every single tick. Instead, it aggregates data into "Sessions" (daily bars by default logic). It extracts the High, Low, and Total Volume for every session within the user-defined lookback period. This filters out intraday noise and focuses on the macro structure of the market.
B. Adaptive Statistical Variability:
Most Bollinger Band-style indicators use Standard Deviation (StdDev) to measure width. However, StdDev is heavily influenced by outliers (extreme wicks). This script offers a sophisticated Adaptive Method-Skewness Detection: The script calculates the skewness of the price distribution. Adaptive Selection: If the data is highly skewed (lots of outliers, typical in Crypto), it switches to MAD (Median Absolute Deviation). MAD is robust and ignores outliers. If the data is moderately skewed, it uses IQR (Interquartile Range). If the data is normal (Gaussian), it uses StdDev.
Benefit: This ensures the zone widths are accurate regardless of whether you are trading a stable Forex pair or a volatile Altcoin.
C. The Weighting Engine (Volume + Time)
Not all price history is equal. This script assigns a "Weight Score" to every session based on two factors:
Volume Weighting: Sessions with massive volume (institutional activity) are given higher importance. A high formed on low volume is less significant than a high formed on peak volume.
Time Decay: Recent price action is more relevant than price action from 50 bars ago. The script applies a decay factor (default 0.85). This means a session from yesterday has 100% impact, while a session from 10 days ago has significantly less influence on the zone calculation.
D. Clustering Algorithm
Once the data is weighted, the script runs a clustering algorithm. It looks for price levels where multiple session Highs (for Resistance) or Lows (for Support) congregate.
It requires a minimum number of points to form a zone (User Input: minPoints).
It merges nearby levels based on the Cluster Separation Factor.
This results in "Primary," "Secondary," and "Tertiary" zones based on the strength and quantity of data points in that cluster.
3. Detailed Features and Inputs Breakdown:
Group 1: Main Settings
Lookback Sessions (Default: 10): Defines how far back the script looks for pivots. A higher number (e.g., 50) creates long-term structural zones. A lower number (e.g., 5) creates short-term scalping zones.
Variability Method (Adaptive): As described above, leave this on "Adaptive" for the best results across different assets.
Zone Width Multiplier (Default: 0.75): Controls the vertical thickness of the zones. Increase this to 1.0 or 1.5 for highly volatile assets to ensure you catch the wicks.
Minimum Points per Zone: The strictness filter. If set to 3, a price level must be hit 3 times within the lookback to generate a zone. Higher numbers = fewer, but stronger zones.
Group 2: Weighting
Volume-Weighted Zones: Crucial for identifying "Smart Money" levels. Keep this TRUE.
Time Decay: Ensures the zones update dynamically. If price moves away from a level for a long time, the zone will fade in significance.
ATR-Normalized Zone Width: This is a dynamic volatility filter. If TRUE, the zone width expands and contracts based on the Average True Range. This is vital for maintaining accuracy during market breakouts or crashes.
Group 3: Zone Strength & Scoring
The script calculates a "Score" (0-100%) for every zone based on:
-Point Count: More hits = higher score.
-Touches: How many times price wicked into the zone recently.
-Intact Status: Has the zone been broken?
-Weight: Volume/Time weight of the constituent points.
-Track Zone Touches: Looks back n bars to see how often price respected this level.
-Touch Threshold: The sensitivity for counting a "touch."
Group 4: Visuals & Display
Extend Bars: How far to the right the boxes are drawn.
Show Labels: Displays the Score, Tier (Primary/Secondary), and Status (Retesting).
Detect Pivot Zones (Overlap): This is a killer feature. It detects where a Support Zone overlaps with a Resistance Zone.
Significance: These are "Flip Zones" (Old Resistance becomes New Support). They are colored differently (Orange by default) and represent high-probability entry areas.
Group 5: Signals & Alerts
Entry Signals: Plots Buy/Sell labels when price rejects a zone.
Detect Break & Retest: specifically looks for the "Break -> Pullback -> Bounce" pattern, labeled as "RETEST BUY/SELL".
Proximity Alert: Triggers when price gets within x% of a zone.
4. Understanding the Visuals (Interpreting the Chart)
When you load the script, you will see several visual elements. Here is how to read them:
The Boxes (Zones)
Red Shades: Resistance Zones.
Dark Red (Solid Border): Primary Resistance. The strongest wall.
Lighter Red (Dashed Border): Secondary/Tertiary. Weaker, but still relevant.
Green Shades: Support Zones.
Dark Green (Solid Border): Primary Support. The strongest floor.
Orange Boxes: Pivot Zones. These are areas where price has historically reacted as both support and resistance. These are the "Line in the Sand" for trend direction.
The Labels & Emojis
The script assigns emojis to zone strength:
🔥 (Fire): Score > 80%. A massive level. Expect a strong reaction.
⭐ (Star): Score > 60%. A solid structural level.
✓ (Check): Score > 40%. A standard level.
"⟳ RETESTING": Appears when a zone was broken, and price is currently pulling back to test it from the other side.
The Dashboard (Top Right)
A statistics table provides a "Head-Up Display" for the asset:
High/Low σ (Sigma): The variability of the highs and lows. If High σ is much larger than Low σ, it implies the tops are erratic (wicks) while bottoms are clean (flat).
Method: Shows which statistical method the Adaptive engine selected (e.g., "MAD (auto)").
ATR: Current volatility value used for normalization.
5. Strategies for Optimum Output
To get the most out of this script, you should not just blindly follow the lines. Use these specific strategies:
Strategy A: The "Zone Fade" (Range Trading)
This works best in sideways markets.
Identify a Primary Support (Green) and Primary Resistance (Red).
Wait for price to enter the zone.
Look for the "SUPPORT BOUNCE" or "RESISTANCE REJECTION" signal label.
Entry: Enter against the zone (Buy at support, Sell at resistance).
Stop Loss: Place just outside the zone width. Because the zones are calculated using volatility stats, a break of the zone usually means the trade is invalid.
Strategy B: The "Pivot Flip" (Trend Following)
This is the highest probability setup in trending markets.
Look for an Orange Pivot Zone.
Wait for price to break through a Resistance Zone cleanly.
Wait for the price to return to that zone (which may now turn Orange or act as Support).
Look for the "RETEST BUY" label.
Logic: Old resistance becoming new support is a classic sign of trend continuation. The script automates the detection of this exact geometric phenomenon.
Strategy C: The Volatility Squeeze
Look at the Dashboard. Compare High σ and Low σ.
If the values are dropping rapidly or becoming very small, the zones will contract (become narrow).
Narrow zones indicate a "Squeeze" or compression in price.
Prepare for a violent breakout. Do not fade (trade against) narrow zones; look to trade the breakout.
6. Optimization & Customization Guide
Different markets require different settings. Here is how to tune the script:
For Crypto & Volatile Stocks (Tesla, Nvidia)
Method: Set to Adaptive (Mandatory, as these assets have "Fat Tails").
Multiplier: Increase to 1.0 - 1.25. Crypto wicks are deep; you need wider zones to avoid getting stopped out prematurely.
Lookback: 20-30 sessions. Crypto has a long memory; short lookbacks generate too much noise.
For Forex (EURUSD, GBPJPY)
Method: You can force StdDev or IQR. Forex is more mean-reverting and Gaussian.
Multiplier: Decrease to 0.5 - 0.75. Forex levels are often very precise to the pip.
Volume Weighting: You may turn this OFF for Forex if your broker's volume data is unreliable (since Forex has no centralized volume), though tick volume often works fine.
For Scalping (1m - 15m Timeframes)
Lookback: Decrease to 5-10. You only care about the immediate session history.
Decay Factor: Decrease to 0.5. You want the script to forget about yesterday's price action very quickly.
Touch Lookback: Decrease to 20 bars.
For Swing Trading (4H - Daily Timeframes)
Lookback: Increase to 50.
Decay Factor: Increase to 0.95. Structural levels from weeks ago are still highly relevant.
Min Points: Increase to 3 or 4. Only show levels that have been tested multiple times.
7. Advantages Over Standard Tools:
Feature Standard S/R Indicator, Advanced Multi-Level S/R Calculation, Uses simple Pivots or Fractals, Uses Statistical Distributions (MAD/IQR). Zone Width Arbitrary or Fixed Adaptive based on Volatility & ATR.
Context Ignores Volume Volume Weighted (Smart Money tracking).
Time Relevance Old levels = New levels Time Decay (Recency bias applied).
Overlaps Usually ignores overlaps Detects Pivot Zones (Res/Sup Flip).
Scoring None 0-100% Strength Score per zone.
8. Conclusion:
The Advanced Multi-Level S/R Zones script is not just a drawing tool; it is a statistical analysis engine. By accounting for the skewness of data, the volume behind the moves, and the decay of time, it provides a strictly objective roadmap of the market structure.
For the optimum output, combine the Pivot Zone identification with the Retest Signals. This aligns you with the underlying flow of order blocks and prevents trading against the statistical probabilities of the market.
tncylyv - Improved Delta Volume BubbleThis script is a specialized modification and structural upgrade of the excellent "Delta Volume Bubble " by tncylyv.
While the original tool provided a fantastic foundation for statistical volume analysis, this "Zero Float" Edition was built to solve specific visual challenges faced by active traders—specifically the issue of indicators "floating" or disconnecting from price when zooming in on lower timeframes.
The Straight Improvements
This version turns a "Signal Indicator" into a complete "Trading System" with five specific upgrades:
1. Visual Stability (The "Zero Float" Fix)
Original: Used complex coordinates that could desynchronize, causing bubbles to drift or float away from candles on fast charts (1m/5m).
My Upgrade: Implemented "Magnetic Anchoring." Labels and bubbles are now physically locked to the candle wicks. They never drift, overlap, or float, no matter how much you zoom or resize the chart.
2. Cognitive Load (The HUD)
Original: Displayed raw numbers inside colored circles, requiring you to memorize color codes.
My Upgrade: Replaced numbers with Semantic Text Labels (e.g., "ABSORB", "SQUEEZE", "MOMENTUM"). You can read the market intent instantly without decoding it.
3. Regime Adaptation (AI Engine)
Original: Used a fixed threshold (e.g., Z-Score > 2.0).
My Upgrade: Added an Adaptive Learning Window. The script scans recent volatility to automatically raise the threshold during choppy markets (filtering noise) and lower it during quiet sessions (catching subtle entries).
4. Market Memory (Smart Structure)
Original: Signals disappeared into history.
My Upgrade: Draws Support/Resistance Rails extending from major volume events. This helps you visualize exactly where institutions are defending their positions.
5. Robust Data Handling
My Upgrade: Added a Hybrid Fallback Engine. If granular 1-minute data isn't available (e.g., on historical charts), the script seamlessly switches to an estimation model so the indicator never "breaks" or disappears.
Core Logic
Z-Score Normalization: We don't look at raw volume; we look at statistical anomalies (Standard Deviations).
Absorption: Detects "Effort vs. Result"—high volume with tiny price movement (Trapped Traders).
Squeeze: Highlights areas where a breakout is imminent due to volatility compression.

🎖️ Full Credit (Engine + Logic — Trendoscope)
Original foundation (Trendoscope Auto Chart Patterns):
The entire pattern engine (multi-zigzag scanning, pivot logic, trendline-pair validation, geometric classification, drawing framework, overlap handling, and pattern caps) is by Trendoscope—one of the best coders on TradingView and the creator of this indicator’s core.
I’m not rewriting his war machine. I’m upgrading the interface and tactical readability so you can see structure faster and act cleaner.
🧩 BK Enhancements (on top of Trendoscope)
Built for clarity under pressure:
Short-form formation tags so your chart stays readable (AC/DC/RC/RWE/FWE/CT/DT/etc.)
Label transparency controls (text + background), including separate controls for short labels
Hover tooltips (toggle): hover a label to see the full pattern name + bias (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral)
Alerts upgraded with bias + category filtering (Channel / Wedge / Triangle)
Pattern border extension (optional): extends the two boundary lines forward by N bars so the battlefield edges stay visible (not extending random zigzag legs)
Everything else remains Trendoscope’s architecture and detection logic.
🧠 What It Does
Auto-detects and labels:
Channels
AC — Ascending Channel
DC — Descending Channel
RC — Ranging Channel
Wedges
RWE / FWE — Rising/Falling Wedge (Expanding)
RWC / FWC — Rising/Falling Wedge (Contracting)
Triangles
ATC / DTC — Asc/Desc Triangle (Contracting)
ATE / DTE — Asc/Desc Triangle (Expanding)
CT — Converging Triangle
DT — Diverging Triangle
You get clean battlefield tags (short codes) and optional hover briefings (full name + bias) without clutter.
🧭 How It Detects (So You Know It’s Not Random)
Trendoscope’s engine does this in a disciplined sequence:
Multi-Zigzag Sweep
Multiple zigzag levels scan the same market from different swing sensitivities.
Pivot Structure Validation (5 or 6 pivots)
A formation is only valid when pivot sequencing produces a legit trendline pair.
Trendline-Pair Rules
Upper boundary anchors to pivot highs
Lower boundary anchors to pivot lows
Geometry is measured (parallel / converging / diverging) to classify channel vs wedge vs triangle
Optional quality filters reduce warped/low-quality shapes (bar ratio checks, overlap avoidance, max pattern caps)
You’re not getting “art.” You’re getting validated geometry.
⚙️ Core Controls (What You Actually Tune)
Zigzag length/depth per level: swing sensitivity (faster vs cleaner)
Pivots used (5 or 6): tighter vs broader structures
Error/Flat thresholds: tolerance + what qualifies as “flat”
Avoid overlap: prevents stacking junk on top of junk
Max patterns: keeps the chart from becoming noise
Label system: short codes, transparency, tooltips, bias visibility
Border extension: projects the structure edges forward for planning
🗺️ Read the Battlefield (Tactical Translation)
AC (Ascending Channel): trend carry; buy pullbacks to the lower wall, manage risk outside structure
DC (Descending Channel): late down-leg; watch for momentum shift + reclaim = tactical reversal zone
RWE (Rising Wedge): distribution bias; break + failed retest is where weakness shows
CT / DT (Triangles): compression → expansion; plan edges, not the middle
Structure is the map. Bias is the compass. Your risk plan is the sword.

SMC Post-Analysis Lab [PhenLabs]📊 SMC Post-Analysis Lab
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
The SMC Post-Analysis Lab is a dedicated hindsight analysis tool built for traders who want to understand what really happened during any historical trading period. Unlike forward-looking indicators, this tool lets you scroll back through time and instantly receive algorithmic classification of market states using Smart Money Concepts methodology.
Whether you’re reviewing a losing trade, studying a successful session, or building your pattern recognition skills, this indicator provides immediate context. The expansion-aware algorithm processes price action within your selected window and outputs clear, actionable classifications ranging from Parabolic Expansion to Consolidation Inducements.
Stop relying on subjective post-trade analysis. Let the algorithm objectively tell you whether institutional players were accumulating, distributing, or running inducements during your trades.
🚀 Points of Innovation
First indicator specifically designed for SMC-based post-trade review rather than live signal generation
Dual-mode analysis system allowing both dynamic scrollback and precise date selection
Expansion-aware classification algorithm that weighs range position against net displacement
Real-time efficiency metrics calculating directional quality of price movement
Integrated visual FVG detection within the analysis window only
Interactive table with clickable date range adjustment via chart interface
🔧 Core Components
Pivot Detection Engine: Uses configurable pivot length to identify significant swing highs and lows for structure break detection
Window Calculator: Determines active analysis zone based on either bar offset or timestamp boundaries
Data Aggregator: Tracks window open, high, low, close and counts bullish/bearish structure break events
State Classification Algorithm: Applies hierarchical logic to determine market state from six possible classifications
Visual Renderer: Draws structure breaks, FVG boxes, and window highlighting within the active zone
🔥 Key Features
Sliding Window Mode: Use the Scroll Back slider to dynamically move your analysis zone backwards through history bar-by-bar
Date Range Mode: Select specific start and end timestamps for precise session or trade review
Six Market State Classifications: Parabolic Expansion (Bull/Bear), Bullish/Bearish Order Flow, Accumulation/Distribution Reversal, and Consolidation/Inducement
Range Position Percentile: See exactly where price closed relative to the window’s high-low range as a percentage
Bull/Bear Event Counter: Quantified count of structure breaks in each direction during the analysis period
Efficiency Calculation: Net move divided by total range reveals trending quality versus chop
🎨 Visualization
Blue Window Highlight: Active analysis zone is clearly marked with blue background shading on the chart
Structure Break Lines: Dashed lines appear at each bullish or bearish structure break within the window
FVG Boxes: Fair Value Gaps automatically render as semi-transparent boxes in bullish or bearish colors
Dashboard Table: Top-right positioned table displays State, Analysis description, and Metrics in real-time
Color-Coded States: Each classification uses distinct coloring for immediate visual recognition
Interactive Tip Row: Optional help text guides users on clicking the table to adjust date range
📖 Usage Guidelines
General Configuration
Analysis Mode: Default is Sliding Window. Choose Date Range for specific timestamp analysis.
Sliding Window Settings
Scroll Back (Bars): Default 0. Increase to move window backwards into history.
Window Width (Bars): Default 100. Range 20-50 for scalping, 100+ for swing analysis.
Date Range Settings
Start Date: Select the beginning timestamp for your analysis period.
End Date: Select the ending timestamp for your analysis period.
Visual Settings
Show Help Tip: Default true. Toggle to hide instructional row in dashboard.
Bullish Color: Default teal. Customize for bullish elements.
Bearish Color: Default red. Customize for bearish elements.
SMC Parameters
Pivot Length: Default 5. Lower values (3-5) catch minor breaks. Higher values (10+) focus on major swings.
✅ Best Use Cases
Post-trade review to understand why entries succeeded or failed
Session analysis to identify institutional activity patterns
Trade journaling with objective algorithmic classifications
Pattern recognition training through historical scrollback
Identifying whether stop hunts were inducements or legitimate breaks
Comparing your real-time read versus what the algorithm detected
⚠️ Limitations
Designed for historical analysis only, not live trade signals
Classification accuracy depends on appropriate pivot length for the timeframe
FVG detection uses simple gap logic without mitigation tracking
State classification is based on window data only, not broader context
Requires manual scrolling or date input to review different periods
💡 What Makes This Unique
Purpose-Built for Review: Unlike most indicators focused on live signals, this is designed specifically for post-trade analysis
Expansion-Aware Logic: Algorithm weighs both position in range AND directional efficiency for accurate state detection
Interactive Date Control: Click the dashboard table to reveal draggable anchors for window adjustment directly on chart
🔬 How It Works
1. Window Definition:
User selects either Sliding Window or Date Range mode
System calculates which bars fall within the active analysis zone
Active zone receives blue background highlighting
2. Data Collection:
Algorithm captures window open, running high, running low, and current close
Structure breaks are detected when price crosses above last pivot high or below last pivot low
Bullish and bearish events are counted separately
3. State Classification:
Range Position calculates where close sits as percentage of high-low range
Efficiency calculates net move divided by total range
Hierarchical logic applies priority rules from Parabolic states down to Consolidation
4. Output Rendering:
Dashboard table updates with State title, Analysis description, and Metrics
Visual elements render within window only to keep chart clean
Colors reflect bullish, bearish, or neutral classification

Supply & Demand Zones (Volume-Based)📌 Supply & Demand Zones (Volume-Based) — Indicator Description
Overview
This indicator visually highlights potential supply and demand price zones using historical candle structure combined with relative volume behavior.The zones are intended to help users observe areas of increased market activity where price has previously reacted. This tool is designed for visual analysis only.
How the Zones Are Identified
Demand zones are highlighted when price shows a strong bullish reaction following a bearish candle.Supply zones are highlighted when price shows a strong bearish reaction following a bullish candle.Relative volume is used as context, not as a predictive input, to classify zones into higher or lower activity levels.Zones automatically invalidate when price structurally breaks them.
About the Percentage Display
The percentage shown on a zone represents normalized relative volume strength at the time the zone was formed.This value is not a probability, not a success rate, and not a performance metric.It should not be interpreted as a prediction or trading signal.Percentages are displayed only for active zones and are removed once a zone is invalidated.
How This Indicator Is Intended to Be Used
As a visual reference tool for identifying historical supply and demand areas.As a contextual overlay alongside other forms of technical analysis.To observe how price behaves when revisiting previously active zones.This indicator does not suggest trade direction, entry timing, or exit levels.
Important Notes & Limitations
All zones are derived from historical price and volume data.Market conditions change, and historical zones may lose relevance over time.No trading decisions should be made based solely on this indicator.Users are encouraged to apply their own analysis and risk management.

CCI Standard DeviationCCI Standard Deviation – Asymmetric Volatility-Adjusted Trend Filter (CCI SD)
The Commodity Channel Index (CCI), created by Donald Lambert in 1980, measures how far the typical price deviates from its statistical average to identify cyclical momentum and trend strength.
The standard formula is:
CCI = (Typical Price − SMA(Typical Price, n)) / (0.015 × Mean Deviation)
where Typical Price = (High + Low + Close)/3.
CCI is unbounded and centered around zero: sustained readings above zero indicate bullish momentum, below zero bearish. Classic interpretations often use zero-line crosses or fixed levels (±100, ±200, ±250), but these can be unreliable when CCI volatility changes across market regimes.
This indicator was developed to create a more disciplined trend-following tool that aligns with my core risk principle: “always protect to the downside.”
Starting from the standard CCI zero-line concept for trend direction, I experimented with standard deviation bands to make the oscillator volatility-adjusted. I then applied deliberate asymmetry: requiring the lower 1σ envelope (CCI − stdev) to cross above a positive threshold for bullish confirmation (high-probability entry only in robust trends), while exiting immediately on any raw CCI weakness below a negative threshold (quick downside protection). User inputs for both thresholds were added to allow fine-tuning and adaptability across different assets and timeframes.
An optional DEMA-smoothed version of the lower envelope provides additional clarity when desired.
Extreme zones
raw CCI ±240 and lower envelope > 200 or < –200 - are highlighted with background shading to flag rare acceleration or capitulation phases.
How it works
Standard CCI calculated on typical price (default length 38).
Rolling standard deviation of the CCI itself (default length 13) measures the oscillator’s recent volatility.
Lower envelope = CCI − stdev (dn).
Optional DEMA smoothing (default length 12) can be toggled.
Trend logic:
Bullish regime only when lower envelope
→ Long Threshold (default +10)
→ statistical proof of strength
Bearish/neutral immediately when raw CCI
→ Short Threshold (default –25)
→ fast downside protection
Origin and development
The indicator emerged from wanting a cleaner, more reliable CCI for trend direction. After testing volatility-adjusted versions, the asymmetric design proved superior:
it enters only high-conviction uptrends and exits rapidly on weakness, significantly reducing whipsaws while preserving trend capture.
Parameters were optimized through extensive backtests on major assets (BTC, ETH, SOL and many more Cryptos; Magnificent 7 stocks, QQQ, SPX, gold).
The defaults were selected for the best average Sortino ratio and lowest maximum drawdown across this broad universe, ensuring robustness and avoiding single-asset overfitting.
How to use it
Green triangle below bar
→ lower envelope crosses above Long Threshold
→ high-conviction bullish trend confirmed
→ enter or add to longs
Magenta triangle above bar
→ CCI crosses below Short Threshold
→ exit longs or go cash/short
While lower envelope remains above Long Threshold
→ hold bullish positions
Extreme background shading (dn >200 or CCI ±240)
→ rare high-attention zones (potential acceleration or exhaustion)
Recommended defaults
CCI length: 38
SD length: 13
Long threshold: +10
Short threshold: –25
Optional MA length: 12 (DEMA of lower envelope)
All visual elements (bar coloring, signals, background, smoothed line) are toggleable for personal preference.
This indicator is designed as a trend-strength and risk-management filter and is not intended as a standalone trading system.

PyraTime FVG [Pro] | Smart Anchored Price ActionPyraTime FVG is a professional-grade institutional trading suite designed to declutter price action analysis. Unlike standard indicators that flood the chart with infinite zones, this tool uses a proprietary "Velcro" Anchoring Engine that physically snaps Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks to the exact candle geometry.
This tool replaces 4 separate indicators (FVG, Market Structure, Order Blocks, and Trend Dashboard) with a single, performance-optimized Pine Script v6 script.
🎯 Key Features
1. The "Velcro" FVG Engine Most FVG indicators draw boxes that extend infinitely, making charts messy.
Smart Extension: Zones extend to the right but automatically "snap" and cut off the moment price mitigates (fills) them.
Precision Anchoring: Boxes are drawn from the exact wick/body limits of the originating candles—no floating pixels.
Mitigation Tracking: Mitigated zones are instantly dimmed and archived, keeping your chart clean for current price action.
2. Intelligent Structure Mapping (BOS & CHoCH) The script distinguishes between trend continuation and trend reversals:
BOS (Break of Structure): Marked with Dotted Lines. Signals that the current trend is healthy and continuing.
CHoCH (Change of Character): Marked with Solid Lines. Signals a potential major trend reversal (e.g., the first Lower Low after an uptrend).
3. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Scanner A non-intrusive dashboard in the bottom-right corner scans the 1H, 4H, and Daily timeframes in real-time.
IN BULL GAP: Price is currently inside a Higher Timeframe Buying Zone.
IN BEAR GAP: Price is currently inside a Higher Timeframe Selling Zone.
CLEAR: No major HTF obstacles nearby.
📚 How to Trade With This Tool (Tutorial)
Step 1: Check the "Big Picture" Look at the MTF Scanner (Bottom Right).
If the 1H and 4H say "IN BEAR GAP" (Gold), you know the higher timeframe bias is Down. You should prioritize selling opportunities.
Step 2: Wait for Price to Visit a Zone On your current chart (e.g., 5m or 15m), wait for price to enter a Gold FVG (Resistance).
Note: The box will be bright gold. Once price touches it, the script will snap the box to that candle, confirming the test.
Step 3: Confirm with Structure Don't sell blindly. Wait for a CHoCH Label (Change of Character) to appear. This confirms that the short-term uptrend has broken and sellers are stepping in.
Step 4: Target the Opposing Zone Aim for the next unmitigated Teal FVG (Bullish Support) or Order Block below.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
Filter Small Gaps: Uses an ATR filter (default 0.5) to ignore insignificant noise. Increase to 1.0 for a cleaner "Swings Only" view.
Show Midpoint: Toggles a dotted 50% equilibrium line inside every active gap.
Visual Style: Fully customizable colors. Default scheme is PyraTime Desert Gold & Oasis Teal.
Strat Structure Engine + Trapped TradersStrat Structure Engine + Trapped Traders – Detailed Description
This script identifies high-probability market structure patterns known as “The Strat” setups, specifically focusing on 3-bar → Failed 2, 2-bar → Failed 2, and Failed 2 → Failed 2 (“Dragon’s Tail”) sequences. It is designed to help traders visualize potential reversals, trapped traders, and exhaustion points directly on the chart, combining price action, volatility, and volume metrics to grade signal strength.
Key Features:
3-Bar → Failed 2 (Tiered Scoring):
Detects a 3-bar structure followed immediately by a strict Failed 2 bar.
Evaluates the setup using four criteria:
3-bar range relative to ATR
Failed 2 close position relative to the 3-bar midpoint
Failed 2 body-to-range ratio
Volume relative to recent average
Assigns a tier (A+, A, B, or —) to indicate reliability, giving traders a graded view of signal strength.
2-Bar → Failed 2 (A+ Only):
Identifies strict 2-bar structures immediately followed by a Failed 2 bar.
Uses a similar evaluation system as 3→F2 but filters only for the strongest A+ setups.
Highlights signals where price shows strong directional rejection and high probability for reversal.
Dragon’s Tail – Failed 2 → Failed 2:
Captures consecutive Failed 2 bars in opposite directions, a classic trapped-trader scenario.
Signals both bullish and bearish sequences on bar close, helping traders spot potential quick reversals.
How It Works:
Uses ATR to contextualize bar ranges and volatility.
Incorporates volume averaging to detect unusually high trading activity that validates the strength of a Failed 2 setup.
Strict bar evaluation ensures only fully-formed, confirmed patterns are labeled, reducing noise and false signals.
Optional labels and alerts allow traders to track these structures in real-time or on bar close.
Practical Trading Use:
Ideal for spotting short-term exhaustion points, trapped traders, and reversal zones.
Can be used alongside liquidity zones, VWAP, and fair value gaps to refine entries and exits.
Traders can focus on high-tier signals (A+ / A) for higher probability trades, while lower-tier signals (B) indicate caution or context setups.
Customization Options:
Toggle visibility for each pattern type (3→F2, 2→F2, F2→F2).
Adjust ATR length and volume average period for different instruments or timeframes.
Alerts are available for all major setups, enabling integration with automated monitoring or manual execution strategies.
Summary:
The Strat Structure Engine + Trapped Traders script combines price action structure, volatility, and volume analysis to visualize high-probability reversal setups. By highlighting both strict pattern confirmations and tiered reliability, it provides traders with actionable insight into potential turning points, trapped trader scenarios, and high-conviction market moves without relying on external scripts or assumptions.
