No-Lag MA Crossover ScalperThe No Lag Crossover Scalper aims to capitalize on short-term trends using a combination of Hull Moving Average (HMA) for trend detection and multiple indicators for generating buy and sell signals. Here’s an overview of its components and approach:
1. Trend Detection with Hull Moving Averages (HMA) :
- Dual Hull MA Setup : Uses two Hull Moving Averages (HMA) to detect crossovers and crossunders, which are signals of short-term trend changes.
- No Lag Nature : HMAs are chosen for their ability to reduce lag compared to traditional moving averages, providing quicker responses to price movements.
2. Indicators for Signal Generation :
- Relative Strength Index (RSI) : Detects overbought and oversold conditions, generating signals when price movements diverge from RSI readings.
- Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) : Provides signals based on the convergence and divergence of two moving averages, indicating potential trend reversals.
- Stochastic Oscillator (Stoch) : Identifies momentum shifts by comparing the current closing price to its range over a specific period.
- On-Balance Volume (OBV) : Measures buying and selling pressure based on volume flow, signaling potential changes in price direction.
- RSI Divergence : Looks for discrepancies between price action and RSI values, suggesting weakening trends and possible reversals.
3. Signal Generation Logic :
- Buy Signals : Generated when both HMAs cross over, supported by bullish indications from RSI, MACD, Stoch, OBV, or RSI divergence. At least 2 indicators must be true to generate a signal.
- Sell Signals : Triggered when HMAs cross under, complemented by bearish signals from the mentioned indicators.
4. Implementation and Optimization :
- Parameter Optimization : Fine-tuning of indicator periods and sensitivity settings to balance signal accuracy and responsiveness.
- Confirmation Mechanisms : Use of multiple indicators to confirm signals, reducing false positives and enhancing reliability.
Overall, the No Lag Crossover Scalper combines the speed of Hull Moving Averages with the reliability of multiple indicators to identify short-term trends effectively. By focusing on no lag indicators and confirming signals with diverse technical tools, it aims to capitalize on rapid market movements while managing risk through disciplined execution.

HilalimSBHilalimSB A Wedding Gift 🌙
HilalimSB - Revealing the Secrets of the Trend
HilalimSB is a powerful indicator designed to help investors analyze market trends and optimize trading strategies. Designed to uncover the secrets at the heart of the trend, HilalimSB stands out with its unique features and impressive algorithm.
Hilalim Algorithm and Fixed ATR Value:
HilalimSB is equipped with a special algorithm called "Hilalim" to detect market trends. This algorithm can delve into the depths of price movements to determine the direction of the trend and provide users with the ability to predict future price movements. Additionally, HilalimSB uses its own fixed Average True Range (ATR) value. ATR is an indicator that measures price movement volatility and is often used to determine the strength of a trend. The fixed ATR value of HilalimSB has been tested over long periods and its reliability has been proven. This allows users to interpret the signals provided by the indicator more reliably.
ATR Calculation Steps
1.True Range Calculation:
+ The True Range (TR) is the greatest of the following three values:
1. Current high minus current low
2. Current high minus previous close (absolute value)
3. Current low minus previous close (absolute value)
2.Average True Range (ATR) Calculation:
-The initial ATR value is calculated as the average of the TR values over a specified period
(typically 14 periods).
-For subsequent periods, the ATR is calculated using the following formula:
ATRt=(ATRt−1×(n−1)+TRt)/n
Where:
+ ATRt is the ATR for the current period,
+ ATRt−1 is the ATR for the previous period,
+ TRt is the True Range for the current period,
+ n is the number of periods.
Pine Script to Calculate ATR with User-Defined Length and Multiplier
Here is the Pine Script code for calculating the ATR with user-defined X length and Y multiplier:
//@version=5
indicator("Custom ATR", overlay=false)
// User-defined inputs
X = input.int(14, minval=1, title="ATR Period (X)")
Y = input.float(1.0, title="ATR Multiplier (Y)")
// True Range calculation
TR1 = high - low
TR2 = math.abs(high - close )
TR3 = math.abs(low - close )
TR = math.max(TR1, math.max(TR2, TR3))
// ATR calculation
ATR = ta.rma(TR, X)
// Apply multiplier
customATR = ATR * Y
// Plot the ATR value
plot(customATR, title="Custom ATR", color=color.blue, linewidth=2)
This code can be added as a new Pine Script indicator in TradingView, allowing users to calculate and display the ATR on the chart according to their specified parameters.
HilalimSB's Distinction from Other ATR Indicators
HilalimSB emerges with its unique Average True Range (ATR) value, presenting itself to users. Equipped with a proprietary ATR algorithm, this indicator is released in a non-editable form for users. After meticulous testing across various instruments with predetermined period and multiplier values, it is made available for use.
ATR is acknowledged as a critical calculation tool in the financial sector. The ATR calculation process of HilalimSB is conducted as a result of various research efforts and concrete data-based computations. Therefore, the HilalimSB indicator is published with its proprietary ATR values, unavailable for modification.
The ATR period and multiplier values provided by HilalimSB constitute the fundamental logic of a trading strategy. This unique feature aids investors in making informed decisions.
Visual Aesthetics and Clear Charts:
HilalimSB provides a user-friendly interface with clear and impressive graphics. Trend changes are highlighted with vibrant colors and are visually easy to understand. You can choose colors based on eye comfort, allowing you to personalize your trading screen for a more enjoyable experience. While offering a flexible approach tailored to users' needs, HilalimSB also promises an aesthetic and professional experience.
Strong Signals and Buy/Sell Indicators:
After completing test operations, HilalimSB produces data at various time intervals. However, we would like to emphasize to users that based on our studies, it provides the best signals in 1-hour chart data. HilalimSB produces strong signals to identify trend reversals. Buy or sell points are clearly indicated, allowing users to develop and implement trading strategies based on these signals.
For example, let's imagine you wanted to open a position on BTC on 2023.11.02. You are aware that you need to calculate which of the buying or selling transactions would be more profitable. You need support from various indicators to open a position. Based on the analysis and calculations it has made from the data it contains, HilalimSB would have detected that the graph is more suitable for a selling position, and by producing a sell signal at the most ideal selling point at 08:00 on 2023.11.02 (UTC+3 Istanbul), it would have informed you of the direction the graph would follow, allowing you to benefit positively from a 2.56% decline.
Technology and Innovation:
HilalimSB aims to enhance the trading experience using the latest technology. With its innovative approach, it enables users to discover market opportunities and support their decisions. Thus, investors can make more informed and successful trades. Real-Time Data Analysis: HilalimSB analyzes market data in real-time and identifies updated trends instantly. This allows users to make more informed trading decisions by staying informed of the latest market developments. Continuous Update and Improvement: HilalimSB is constantly updated and improved. New features are added and existing ones are enhanced based on user feedback and market changes. Thus, HilalimSB always aims to provide the latest technology and the best user experience.
Social Order and Intrinsic Motivation:
Negative trends such as widespread illegal gambling and uncontrolled risk-taking can have adverse financial effects on society. The primary goal of HilalimSB is to counteract these negative trends by guiding and encouraging users with data-driven analysis and calculable investment systems. This allows investors to trade more consciously and safely.
CANDLE LEVELS [PRO]This indicator provides you with 55 levels! with labels to help you identify quickly where current price is in relation to the OPEN, CLOSE, HIGH OF DAY and LOW OF DAY to a respective level. Choose from levels as low as the 5 minute time frame all the way up to 200 days. All of the levels except the day's OPEN, HIGH OF DAY AND LOW OF DAY use the PREVIOUS time frame's level. In other words, when you're looking at the "1 DAY HIGH", that's actually the previous day's HIGH OF DAY. Whether you're a scalper on the lower time frames or a swing trader that mainly uses the 1 hour and above, these candle levels can be an invaluable source of support and resistance; in other words you'll often see price bounce off of a level (whether price is increasing or decreasing) once or multiple times and that could be an indication of a price's direction. Another way that you could utilize this indicator is to use it in confluence with other popular signals, such as an EMA crossover. For instance, you could watch as price rises above the 21 EMA all the while price is also crossing up and over the previous day's HIGH OF DAY with a relative volume that's double that of the previous week's average. These are just a few of some potential bullish signals that you could look for to go long on a trade using the candle levels provided.
I've made this indicator extremely customizable:
⚡Each level has 2 labels: 1 "at level" and 1 "at right", each label and price can be disabled
⚡Each label has its own input for label padding. The "at right" label padding input allows you to zoom in and out of a chart without the labels moving along their respective axis
⚡Each label's text can be customized via an "input.string" code base
⚡Each level's label can be changed via a plot style setting to determine if the label is centered with it's respective level or rides along the top of it
⚡Significant figures input allows you to round price up or down
⚡A "bias EMA" tool that color codes the candles and price line to show you where price is in relation to the 21 EMA (or another value that you pick). As a result, this can be an effective visual to help reduce cognitive load
⚡A "fill level" where color is determined by price opening above or below the previous day's close
⚡A "use current close" setting that's great to use in pre-market as it shows you where price is in relation to the previous days' close

🙏Thanks to (c)satymahajan for the inspiration behind the ATR "previous close" and "bias candle" code base
🙏Thanks to my mentor (c)SimpleCryptoLife for the libraries and extensive code to help create this indicator
Opening Range & Prior Day High/Low [Gorb]Introduction:
Opening Range & Prior Day High/Low indicator is an easy to use day traders tool. This indicator automatically plots the previous days high and low, as well as drawing a box from the opening range that the user specifies in the settings. These two together can help provide an indication of market sentiment and price trends for the day. They are often used as a trading strategy for day traders.
Overview:
The Opening Range , draws a box from the high to the low of the user defined time period and is extended until the end of the trading session. Most common are the 5/15/30min opening ranges.
Prior Day High/Low , draws lines from the previous days high and low that extend across the current session. These are used as support/resistance and also a marker to see market sentiment by crossing one of these levels.
The indicator is designed for all kinds of traders, offering a simple approach to automatically plot levels for you.
Features:
All skill-level friendly presets, easy to enable with one-click
Opening Range: Allows user to choose what time the range starts and ends to measure the high & low.
Extend Range Lines: allows the user to choose when the box stops extending according to the trading session time.
Enable Opening Range Box: allows the user to choose to plot the opening range or not.
ORB Border Color: allows the user to change the box border color.
ORB Box Shade Color: allows the user to change the background of the opening range box.
ORB Line Width: allows users to chose the width of the opening range box lines.
Enable Previous Day High: allows users to enable the previous days high to be plotted.
Enable Previous Day Low: allows users to enable the previous days high to be plotted.
Previous Day High Color: allows users to choose the color for this line.
Previous Day Low Color: allows users to choose the color for this line.
All colors are changeable for the user to customize to their liking.
Usage Demonstration
In the image below, we can see a basic example of how these 3 features function.
As explained above, the opening range is customizable to meet the users needs and can be disabled with one click. Same goes for the prior day high(green) and low(red) lines. All 3 are plotted each day automatically for the user if enabled.
In the image below, we can see an example of using the opening range break and prior day high together for a trading strategy.
This is a great example of using the prior day high with the opening range to use as a day trading strategy. It provides the trader with levels to watch for price to break out from for possible trade setups.
In this next image, we can see a failed breakdown from the opening range that results in a bullish breakout.
The first move was a fake breakdown with the failed rejection on the retest of the opening range lows. This led to a breakout above the range and a confirmation bounce on the breakout retest. Price did break above the prior day high and confirmed with a retest bounce on that level as well.
In the image below, we can see how previous days levels can act as resistance to use with the opening range.
Price didn't reject the opening range low, but it did reject the prior day high for the second time. This could be used as an entry or once price breaks down out of the opening range again.
Conclusion:
We believe in providing user-friendly tools to help speed up traders technical analysis and implement easy trading strategies. The goal is to provide a user-friendly indicator to automatically draw opening ranges and previous days levels to suit the users needs and trading style.

Option ScalperWhat is Scalping?
Scalping is a trading strategy aimed at profiting from quick momentum in a volatile index or stock or any other instrument that can be traded.
Traders who use such strategies place anywhere from 10 to a few hundred trades in a single day.
The idea behind such type of trading is that small moves in an index or stock price are much easier to capture than the larger moves.
Traders who use such strategies are known as scalpers. When you take many small profits a number of times, say 10 points scalped 20 times per day, they can easily add up to large gains.
An Option Buyer's Biggest Enemy is Time Decay and when you scalp, you do not allow the time decay to eat your Option Premium as your Entry and Exit is often quick enough.
What is Option Scalper?
Option Scalper indicator is a momentum-based indicator that tries to detect momentum based upon a number of factors as given below:
(1) Price action accumulated over a period of time when big candles are nowhere
(2) Repeatedly Occurring, certain Candle patterns which indicate if buyers have the upper hand or sellers are ruling the market.
(3) Gradient of moving averages which shows consistency of net buying/selling force
(4) Price jumping normal distribution line and landing in outlying areas, signalling increasing momentum of buying/selling activity.
Based upon the above factors, when Option Scalper thinks a move has the potential to turn into a big move, it generates its Buy/Sell Signals.
When aggressive buying or selling starts where Buying & Selling Forces become unequal, the Price starts moving in one direction with candles making Higher Highs or Lower Lows, moving average lines start scaling up or down or volumes start increasing.
Option Scalper detects these (1) Higher Highs or Lower Lows, (2) scaling up moving average lines, and/or (3) price breaking out of channels; and generates Buy or Sell signals.
In order to use this indicator, simply deploy this on your chart, and wait for Buy/Sell signals. When a Buy/Sell Signal appears, a small line starts forming up at the closing level of Buy/Sell signal candle. Your Entry will be above that line for Buy Signal and below that line for Sell Signal.
It works on all time frames.
Whenever a Buy Signal is followed by Sell signal (let it be after 7 - 8 candles or after many candles) or vice-versa, you have to switch your position to make most of the reverse move.
It is a general purpose indicator and may be used on stocks, commodities, forex and any other instruments alike and is not meant for any specific market.
How to Take Buy/Sell Entry with Option Scalper?
Whenever a Buy/Sell Signal appears on a candle, Option Scalper starts marking its closing price with a horizontal line that keeps extending towards right side with every new candle. This line is Blue in Color for Buy Signal and dark golden color for Sell Signal.
Initially this horizontal line will be very small but as more and more candles appear with the passage of time, the length of the line keeps increasing.
The purpose of this line is to mark the closing price of Signal candle and you have to take your Buy Entry above this line (if last signal is BUY) or you have to take your trade Below this line (if last signal is SELL).
The indicator will also draw another line at the Opening Price of Signal Candle, which can act as your initial stop loss. If trade starts moving in your direction and price goes above upper variance line (light green curvy line) or goes below lower variance line (purple wavy line), then that line becomes your trailing stop loss line from that point onwards.
The indicator also marks the consolidation zone for you. If the Buy/Sell Signal has come but price is in consolidation zone (grey colour cloud), do not take any positions yet and wait for the price to come out of the cloud and breach the Entry Line.
Exiting Buy/Sell Positions and Re-Entry Rules
1. Exiting your Buy Trade: When a Buy Trade is active, indicator can detect where the ongoing upmove may end or retrace for a while and it will print an X symbol (RED COLOR) to warn you. After you see a Red Color X symbol, if price starts making lower lows, you can exit your Buy Trade there or if you are in good profit, you can wait for the price to go below upper variance line (the green color Trailing Stop Loss Line for Buy Trade). See the image below for Red Color X symbol which warns you to be prepared for EXIT from Buy Trade:
2. Re-Entry for Buy Trade: If the last signal on your chart is still Buy Signal but your stop loss has been hit once or twice and you have no open positions now, you can RE-ENTER in buy trade if and when price again climbs above the grey cloud.
3. Exiting your Sell Trade: When a Sell Trade is active, indicator can detect where the ongoing down-move may end or retrace for a while and it will print an X symbol (Green COLOR) to warn you. After you see a Green Color X symbol, if price starts making higher highs, you can exit your Sell Trade there or if you are in good profit, you can wait for the price to go above lower variance line (the purple color Trailing Stop Loss Line for Sell Trade).
4. Re-Entry for Sell Trade: If the last signal on your chart is Sell Signal but your stop loss has been hit once or twice and you have no open positions now, you can RE-ENTER in Sell trade if and when price again crosses below the grey color cloud.
See the image below for recognizing Red and Green X symbols which indicate that temporary retracement or reversal signal is developing:
What are the other features of Option Scalper?
1. End to End Horizontal Support/Resistance Lines: Indicator also detects, prints and deletes horizontal support and resistance lines which can help in your trading decisions. For example, a Buy Signal comes and price crosses above upper variance line and also crosses nearby horizontal resistance line means it has higher probability of moving further up. The reverse is also true (for Sell Signal). See an example of a resistance line below:
2. Star Symbols: If 5 or more consecutive candles are of the same color, then Star Symbol (*) starts appearing above or below the candles. When price has moved too high or too low from the upper or lower variance line, these stars indicate that there is higher probability of retracement happening now which should prompt you to book full or partial profit. See the circled stars in the below image
3. Color Changing Candles: If a candle changes its color from Red to Purple or from Green to light green, they indicate increased intensity of Selling or Buying activity. For example, if each 1 min candle within a 5 min candle is red, then that 5 min candle will turn purple which means Selling pressure is too much and there are very few or no buyers at all. Reverse is also true when Green Candle becomes Light Green. Example images of such candles can be seen below:
4. Consolidation Zone: It is very important for an option buyer to strike only when there is momentum and not to take any fresh trade (or if you already have a position, then closing it for the time being) when price is in consolidation zone. Consolidation zone is marked by a grey colour cloud as seen in below image.
What Type of Alerts Can be Set up: You can set up 3 type of alerts with this indicator (a) Buy Entry Signal which happens when Price closes above the marked Buy Price Level (b) Sell Signal which happens when Price closes below the marked Sell Price Level or (c) Any signal (if you want to be alerted when either Buy or Sell Signal happens)

TENKAN SCALPER STRATEGYTENKAN SCALP is a fully automatic trading system.
It is a continuation of our previous ichimoku release. This time however we throw out the rule book and use ICHIMOKU in a very different way.
It applies non traditional money management tactics.
While most trading strategies rely on a stop loss and a take profit target to manage risk. This strategy uses either no stop loss at all or a time based stop loss.
You might ask yourself the question why would you keep a trade open if it goes against you? Here are a phew reasons why the script does what it does.
Forex Markets consolidate most of the time. If you wait long enough your Take Profit will get hit anyways most of the time
You don't have to risk everything per trade. I keep my orders small so to keep some powder to get into some more trades
All the extra trades you take while one trade is in drawdown limit the drawdown as they provide cashflow
On lower timeframes the markets are so chaotic that a stop loss is very likely to get hit by a wick
About backtest below
This backtest uses a spread of 2 pips for entries and a default position size of 100% of equity. This is only possible on exchanges where spread is low and you have 10:1 leverage or more. It does not represent results obtainable without leverage. Do take into account that there are a lot of forex exchanges that provide this leverage, however a 2 pip spread is not always guaranteed and only applies to major pairs.
This backtest does not use the TIME BASED STOPS functionality.
Always start with small position sizing and see how the strategy performs before adding risk.
Explanation of variables:
Chikou(lagging span): pink line, this is price plotted 26 bars ago. People ignore the power of this it is crucial to see how chikou behaves towards past price action as seen in the chart below where we got an entry at red arrow because chikou bounced from past fractal bottom.
Kijun-Sen(base line): Black line or color coded line. This is the equilibrium of last 26 candles. To me this is the most important line in the system as it attracts price.
Kijun = (Highest high of 26 periods + Lowest low of 26 periods) ÷ 2
Tenkan-Sen(conversion line): Blue line. This is the equilibrium of last 9 candles. In a strong uptrend price stays above this line.
Tenkan = (Highest high of 9 periods + Lowest low of 9 periods) ÷ 2
Senkou A (Leading span A)= Pink cloud line, this is the average of the 2 components projected 26 bars in the future.
Senkou A = (Tenkan + Kijun) ÷ 2
Senkou B (Leading span B) = Green cloud line, this is the 52 day equilibrium projected 26 bars in the future.
Senkou B = (Highest high of prior 52 periods + Lowest low of prior 52 periods) ÷ 2
projection: Script uses same function for variable calculation and substracts a number on each next bar as to make a projection of where the variable will be in future bars if price stayed the same. This works as ICHIMOKU calculations use the middle point of a past set of data. The shorter that amount of bars will be in line with the data that it will be restricted to in future if price stayed the same.
Detection of Market Environment
To enter trades the script uses a lot of ICHIMOKU concepts. Contrary to how most people trade ICHIMOKU this script takes an environment that ICHIMOKU identifies as trending upwards and shorts in that environment. The same will be applied to a downtrend where it will open LONGS.
List of CRITERIA for a trend:
Grapling Hook: this is a component based on the chikou span (closing price displaced 26 bars into the past). The script will use an ATR based range to define a possible future projection to the CHIKOU line. For a market to be bullish there should be no price action happening within this area. Market is free to move upwards. Vice versa for bearish .
Kumo Cloud: script will check if price is above the cloud for bullish trend and below cloud for bearish trend .
Chikou above Kijun: script will check if the chikou line is above the KIJUN line of 26 bars ago. This is further confirmation that price is trending high enough compared to it's past data. Vice versa for downtrend.
Kijun projection: script will check if past Kijun is lower than future projected Kijun. This to ensure we get an equilibrium in our favour in the future. Vice versa for downtrend
Tenkan projection: script will check if future Tenkan-sen will be higher than Kijun-sen for an uptrend. Vice versa for downtrend.
Cloud projection: script will check if in 9 bars the Senkou Span A will be higher than Senkou Span B for an uptrend. Vice versa for downtrend.
Example:
This script does not visualise the prediction lines like I show in the example. I show them here to clarify how the script works.
Usage
Backtests are not indicative of future results, although a trader may want to use a strategy script to have a deeper understanding of how their strategy responds to varying market conditions, or as a tool for identifying possible flaws for a strategy that may be indicative of good or bad performance in the future.
Strategy Settings:
Minimum Body Size (atr): this is the minimum ATR a signal bar needs to be for entry. This is useful because our TP is based on previous bar.
Lot size per trade: this setting does not impact backtest. It is used to for the signals to let tradingconnect.com know your position size.
Direction: do you want to trade longs or shorts. I personally use both a long bot and a short bot at the same time.
Positions Allowed: the amount of positions the script will keep open as a maximum. You do not want to open too many positions, this is for risk management.
Close all positions at drawdown: if total open positions loss gets to this % target it will close all positions.
MetaTrader Prefix: when the script sends a signal it will put this text right before the symbol name from syminfo.ticker
MetaTrader Suffix: when the script sends a signal it will put this text right after the symbol name from syminfo.ticker
Charts below are some examples on how the script handles orders on default settings:
without time based SL
with time based SL
how it handles pyramiding
www.tradingview.com
Tradingconnector.com:
For full automation of the forex market the script uses this connector to execute trade on MT4. The alerts the script sends using the alerts() function call are structured in a way tradingconnector will recognise and send directly to MT4. You can find documentation about this tool on their own website.
Personal recommendation is to start with a minimum lot size and track performance, if you are comfortable scale the size up. You can do that by increasing the lot size setting in the script and making a new alert. Make sure to delete the old one.

Acrylic's 1m/3m Scalper Buy/Sell SignalsAcrylic's Scalper Signals uses a combination of RSI / Stochastic / Williams %R to calculate the perfect entry signals. The script(with it's default settings) has been optimized and thoroughly tested on BTC & ETH 1 and 3 minute time frames. It's intended for quick in and out trades that should only last a few minutes unless a strong trend is caught. Basic knowledge of market structure is needed, as you will not be taking every signal generated by the script.
You also have the option to display all signals regardless of the short term trend that has been confirmed by RSI. This can be good if you're looking for reversal entries at resistance/support levels.
-Large triangle signal: Strongest signal that was confirmed with RSI & Williams %R optimized calculations. (prints at current candle close)
-Small triangle signal: Fractal signal can be used as a late entry signal/continuation. (prints after 2 candle closes)
-Candle colors are matched to stochastic strength for added confluence to enter trades. (Must hide default trading view candles to see these)
-233SMMA color is matched to the extreme short term trend based off of RSI calculations.
Perfect Long Entry Setup Image :
1) EMA21 > EMA55 > EMA100 > SMMA233(Colored green for added confluence) - All pointing up indicating strong trend
2) Enter on pullback to short term EMA after signal candle closes. (Do not take entry if candles closed below 100EMA)
Perfect Short Entry Setup Image :
1) EMA21 < EMA55 < EMA100 < SMMA233(Colored red for added confluence) - All pointing down indicating strong trend
2) Enter on pullback to short term EMA after signal candle closes. (Do not take entry if candles closed above 100EMA)
Feel free to ask questions or leave feedback in the comments, I'm always looking to improve! Thanks!
Gedhusek ScalpingRangerThis indicator was designed for finding good entries for scalping the market
How does it work:
- It works on a basis of price running out of its bands and its return
- Once the price is out of bands, the system starts scanning for two patterns --> sudden price reversion and losing of momentum.
- If any of these patterns occur, the indicator waits for a confirmation bar and after that it gives you a signal that the price could be moving upwards or downwards.
- These signals are represented by a label and sudden price change of the current bar
- Also you will see a dotted line above or below the bar that can be used as a potential Stop Loss level
Idea behind the trigger patterns:
Sudden price reversion
- Idea behind this pattern is that the price has a higher success of reversion if there is a fast change of its momentum. This pattern is recognized by measuring the divergence between prior and current price change
- The divergence is measured as correlation between shorter-term price action and longer-term price action. If the correlation is negative and statistically significant, it is counted as a reversion signal (= shorter-time price action goes in the opposite direction of longer-term price action)
Losing of momentum
- The idea behind this pattern is that once there is no strong momentum, there is lower probability of a breakout and start of strong trend
- It is calculated as a difference between current price and previous price. If the difference is minimal, it is taken as a signal that the price lost its momentum and therefore there is higher chance of reversion.
When to use:
- This indicator works well in ranging markets, but slightly less well in trending markets. Therefore look for sideways markets and use the indicator there
- Price action patterns work really well with this indicator, such as Support and Resistance levels, double Tops and Bottoms,...
Inputs:
- This indicator has only one input and that is "Analysis Period". This input declares how many bars and going to be used when finding the patterns of possible price reversion
Time Based Crypto DayTrade StrategyThis is a time based strategy, designed to enter and exit within the same day of the week, using different hours for entry and exit.
The script is long only direction, and it has no risk management inside, so use it with caution.
At the same time you can also calculate each individual hour return within a certain day, and make your own idea about the best moments to be enter.
In order to filter a bit from the bad trades, I have applied an ATR filter, to check if that volatility is rising in order to help eliminate some of the bad trades when there is no volatility around.
For this example, on BTC, it seems that for the last years, on tuesday and thursday, enterring at the beginning of the daily candle, 01:00hours and exit at 00:00 hours, seems to give positive results giving the idea that can be converted in some sort of edge into our favor.
However dont take this entirelly for granted and conduct your own searches
Higher Timeframe Price Action ScannerThis is a higher timeframe scanner that detects the price action trend on multiple timeframes and displays them all as red or green dots. You’ll be able to see the real time and historical price action trends so you can trade in the same direction of the overall trend on higher timeframes. You can also set it to scan a different ticker if you choose. If you find pairs that correlate very well, you can use two scanners and look at both of them for extra trend confluence.
CALCULATIONS
This scanner uses the same price action formula from our other indicator titled 1 Minute Scalping Indicator which can be found on our profile. It has Scalp Mode and Swing Mode. Both modes use the exact same price action parameters for signals, but Swing Mode will only give signals when the price action parameters are met AND the close is higher than the previous high for bull signals or when the close is lower than the previous low for bear signals.
HOW TO USE
The top line of the scanner shows the price action trend for the current chart timeframe and the rest are using the higher timeframe that you set in the input settings. They start with higher timeframe #1 as the second line from the top and go down from there.
When most or all of the dots are green, you should be looking for long positions and when most or all of the dots are red, you should be looking for short positions.
Since this scanner is using pure price action to identify trends, it’s a reliable way to see what multiple timeframes are doing.
PAIRINGS
Use this with the 1 Minute Scalping Indicator so you can get the signals and candles colored per the price action on your chart as well as see the higher timeframe price action trend from the scanner. Using both together will help you make better trading decisions.
MARKETS
You can use this scanner on any market.
TIMEFRAMES
This scanner will scan the current chart timeframe and display the result on the top line, then the lines below that will display the results from the higher timeframes you choose in the settings. It has timeframes from 1 minute all the way up to 1 year.
1 Minute Scalping IndicatorThis is a 1 Minute Scalping Indicator based purely on price action of the current candle compared to the previous candle so there is no lag from using other indicators. It works great on all timeframes, but is designed for getting in and out of positions quickly using the 1 minute chart. The candles will paint according to the direction the price is currently moving in, which is a great way to help reduce anxiety while watching the candles bounce back and forth.
HOW TO USE
It has Scalp Mode and Swing Mode. Both modes use the exact same price action parameters for signals, but Swing Mode will only give signals when the price action parameters are met AND the close is higher than the previous high for bull signals or when the close is lower than the previous low for bear signals.
This scalping indicator will show green up arrows when it detects bullish price action and red down arrows when it detects bearish price action. It will show a yellow arrow if the bullish/bearish price action conditions are met, but it detects a candle pattern that may be a weak signal such as small candle body, large wicks, etc. When this happens, make sure to wait for the next candle to show confirming price action before following the signal. You can also turn the signals off and use only the candle coloring if you prefer cleaner charts.
You can change the candle colors it uses within the input settings, as well as the color of the signal arrows to suit your preferences. You can also turn off the candle coloring if you prefer normal candles. If you are using the indicator’s candle coloring, make sure you go to your chart settings(gear icon top right) and in the symbol tab, turn off body, borders and wick for this to show up properly.
This scalper also includes alerts for bull and bear signals that can be set to alert you on any market and timeframe.
SCANNER
We also made a higher timeframe scanner that uses this same price action formula and shows you if higher timeframes are currently bullish or bearish in real time. It’s titled Higher Timeframe Price Action Scanner and can be found on our profile. I strongly recommend using both of these together to get an idea of the overall trend on longer timeframes. You can also use two of the scanners and set them to two tickers that move together or opposite of each other(like SQQQ and TQQQ) for even more market insight on your ticker's immediate direction.
MARKETS
This 1 Minute Scalping Indicator works well on any market such as stocks, crypto, forex, futures, etc.
TIMEFRAMES
This indicator is designed for scalping on the 1 Minute timeframe, but it works well on all timeframes, since it is using price action to give signals.
TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
We recommend pairing this indicator with another support & resistance or moving average combo to find great entry areas and use the price action signals as confirmation when price bounces off of those areas. We also recommend using the Higher Timeframe Price Action Scanner with this so you can see the overall trend of higher timeframes on your chart and trade in the direction of the trend.

Polaris [Loxx]Polaris is a lower timeframe, high-leverage scalping indicator. It works by scanning for volatility spikes and then calculation the likelihood that those spikes will break market structure to the upside or downside.
Settings
Volatility Type: ATR or TRD , these types will be expanded in future releases.
Volatility Multiplier: How much volatility for market structure break
Filter and source: Proprietary moving average filter period and source type
Equity Calculation Method: Fixed or compounded. This determines trade size. If fixed, then the strategy uses the same quantity per trade, if compounded the strategy uses a percentage of cash on hand as that cash grows or shrinks
% Risk Per Trade: How much you'd like to risk per trade.
Leverage Multiple: How much leverage you'd like to use
% Maintenance Margin: You can find this value posted on the exchange you use
Enabled Forced Liquidation Stop-loss?: If enabled, the strategy will liquidate at measures of leverage automatically. 10x leverage liquidates at 10% opposite move for the trade, for example. This number will be adjusted by the % Maintenance Margin determined by the exchange.
% Minimum Take Profit Cutoff: This controls whether you wish to take trades only over XX% volatility . Since this indicator is to be used for small tight scalps, this keeps you out of trades that are too small to be useful for your desired trading style
Activate Long Pullback Rule?: This controls how the trade is entered. If activated, then the entry won't occur until a pullback happens after market structure break
Activate Short Pullback Rule?: This controls how the trade is entered. If activated, then the entry won't occur until a pullback happens after market structure break
Activate Trend Flip Exits?: Force strategy to exit when trend flips from short to long and long to short
Number of Take Profits: How many take profits levels. 1-5
Activate Trailing Take Profit?: Allows you to set a trailing stop loss after TP2 his hit
Trailing Take Profit Offset Multipler: This determines when the trailing stoploss hits. It's a multiple of volatility
Activate Moving Stop-loss?: Forces the stop loss to move up as targets are reached
Where to Move Stop-loss: At which Take Profit level do we begin to move stoplosses upward with targets
Show dip buying levels: If you have a high risk appetite, these are levels where you could increase your investment size, this has no effect on the strategy but is included for if you wish to manually add to your position size
Activate Longs?: Toggles on/off Longs
Activate Longs?: Toggles on/off Shorts
The remaining settings are multiples of volatility for Take Profits and dip buying levels
UI components
Big green and red plus signs means an entry point. PTF with green and red arrows means "prepare for trend flip". Not every PTF will actually flip the trend. These are just warning shots to make you aware that a possible trend flip is coming. Labels nest to market structure breaks with numbers are the ideal entry level. You can set limit orders at these levels so as to incur less exchange fees on Binance or Bybit for example. The data window provides useful information about the current trade and targets and stoploss of the next upcoming trade giving the current price action of the asset.
Other things to note
this is an extremely high risk strategy depending on how you tune the settings. You can tune down the settings to make it less risky at the cost of profit and hit rate, but that's up to you and your trading style. This can be used all all timeframes, but is meant for timeframes below 4 hours.
Attrition Scalper v2.0Green/Red Arrowed Buy/Sell signals are just simple buy sell signals based on SuperTrend, VWAP, Bollinger, Linear Regression
Purple Arrowed Buy/Sell Signals happen when the price/candle cross over or under the yellow outer lines (4.236 fib lines) It's extremely rare and hard for price to stay above these lines therefore we can usually and comfortably buy/sell it, a key information here though when price pumps or dumps super fast and hard to the point of crossing these borders, the trend might also be extremely strong and continous so even if the price temporarily goes back inside the borders as the lines expand over time price can continue riding or crossing these lines back again and continue the uptrend/downtrend, therefore crossing these outer borders doesn't necessarilly and always mean a reversal is due.
When analyzing the instrument you're trading the important factors for support/resistance areas are usually the outer lines like i said previously it's super hard for price to be outside these and will almost always get back inside quickly. The Middle thicker green/red line which is Variable Index Dynamic Average should also be a nice pivot line for major support and resistance . All the other lines are also important dynamic support/resistance lines.
Their Importance Order
1- Outer Yellow Line (4.236 Fibs)
2- Thicker Middle Green/Red Line (VIDYA)
3- Thinner Upper/Lower Green/Red Line (VIDYA +3, VIDYA -3)
4- The Rest Of The Lines (Fib Lines)
You can use this indicator in any market condition in any market to determine key support/resistance levels, use it for mean reversion through price expanding to outside of the most outer line therefore being overbought/oversold basically using the purple buy/sell signals or only follow the normal buy/sell signals or use it in confluence with each other. You can also use this indicator in confluence with your own manual technical analysis or other indicators/strategies you are already using and are comfortable with.
A good part is the support/resistance lines from timeframe to timeframe pictures the whole situation quite well, you can use lower timeframe to find your entry/exit positions and higher timeframe to find your key support/resistance points, they all should be somewhat in confluence from timeframe to timeframe anyways. My recommendation would be to look at 1HR, 4HR and 1D charts for swing trading and 5-15 Min for quick scalping/day trading
You should still probably at least take a look to higher timeframes so that you don't get burned when you realize there is a huge resistance line at price XXXXX on the 4 hour chart but you're expecting it to go above it on the 5 minute chart, it can go above it temporarily but we analyze everything on a closing basis so it most likely won't close above it. Again don't take a position or FOMO when price breaks a support/resistance line, we're looking for a CLOSE above/below them and a retest to see if S/R flip happened would even be better.
Sometimes the most outer line won't be the 4.236 (Yellow) lines as when it gets quite volatile the Thinner Upper/Lower Green/Red Lines (VIDYA +3, VIDYA-3) might cross them to be the most outer line, in this case i have observed that the trend is extremely strong this time price almost always doesn't go above or below the VIDYA line but can stay outside of the Yellow 4.236 Fib line for an extended amount of time (price will still get back inside the channel relatively quickly, just not as fast as the normal condition)
With Proper Risk Management and Discipline this indicator can be of great use to you as it's surprisingly successful especially at mean reversion and pointing out the support/resistance lines, they are so much more successful than your average MA/EMA lines.
Scalper RibbonThis Scalper Ribbon is a combination of 6 different oscillators with a sprinkle of secret sauce . It’s smoothed out so it’s easy to read, but is quick enough to catch reversals early and helps you spot divergences. It will turn green or red according to the bullish or bearish nature of the ticker you are viewing without all of the noise that most oscillators give you.
It combines price action, momentum, rsi and a few other oscillators together to give an overall trend strength line that is smoothed out and coupled with a moving average to make it less noisy. Use it as an identifier of the underlying trend so you can make better decisions on scalp trades as well as swing trades on longer timeframes. Wait for the ribbon to break out/down from the middle blue range to avoid chop and get in when price is actually moving.
***HOW TO USE***
Find tops and bottoms of the market by looking for reversals in the ribbon when it is either very high or very low. The white line is the midline and the ribbon is overall bullish when above the midline and overall bearish when below the midline. There are also two blue lines just above and below the midline that is a buffer area I like to call the neutral range. When the ribbon is in the neutral range, expect indecision in the market and look for the ribbon to break out or down from that range for continuation of a trend. The farther away from the neutral range the ribbon is, the stronger the trend is. Take a look at how it performs across multiple timeframes and tickers and get a feel for it before using it in your strategy. It will help you spot reversals early and show you hidden divergences in price action before the reversals happen.
***CUSTOMIZATION***
You can adjust the length of the oscillators and the moving average ribbon to be faster or slower to suit your preferences. The lower the number used, the faster it will detect changes, but the more noise it will have. The higher the number used, the slower it will detect changes, but there will be less noise and easier to follow.
***MARKETS***
This indicator can be used as a signal on all markets, including stocks, crypto, futures and forex.
***TIMEFRAMES***
This Scalper Ribbon indicator can be used on all timeframes.

Optimal Confidence Scalper [OCS]Introduction
OCS : Optimal Confidence Scalpers, Utilise the computational approach towards finding confidence estimating in signal generating process, It helps u enter and exit the financial markets quickly, It buy and sell many times in a day with the objective of making consistent profits from incremental movements in the traded security's price. As we all know Lag is very undesirable because a trading system. Late trades can many times be worse than no trades at all, Main aim of the System is to find optimal Entry and Exit points for a successful trade
Mathematics behind the indicator
The indicator use two fundamentals pillars :
Estimation of a Confidence Interval
In frequentist statistics, a confidence interval (CI) is a range of estimates for an unknown parameter. A confidence interval is computed at a designated confidence level; the 95% confidence level is most common, but other levels, such as 90% or 99%, are sometimes used.
Desired properties are Validity, Optimality and Invariance
Polynomial Filters
The polynomial filters are based on the orthogonal polynomials of Legendre and Laguerre. Orthogonal polynomials are widely used in applied mathematics, physics and engineering, and the Legendre and Laguerre polynomials are only two of infinitely many sets, each of which has its own weight function.
They can be characterized in three equivalent ways:
1. They are the optimal lowpass filters that minimize the NRR, subject to additional constraints than the DC unity-gain condition
2. They are the optimal filters that minimize the NRR whose frequency response H(ω) satisfies certain flatness constraints at DC
3. They are the filters that optimally fit, in a least-squares sense, a set of data points to polynomials of different degrees.
The System uses Predictive Differentiation Filters, as subset to Polynomial Filters

Relative Andean ScalpingThis is an experimental signal providing script for scalper that uses 2 of open source indicators.
First one provides the signals for us called Andean Oscillator by @alexgrover . We use it to create long signals when bull line crosses over signal line while being above the bear line. And reverse is true for shorts where bear line crosses over signal line while being above bull line.
Second one is used for filtering out low volatility areas thanks to great idea by @HeWhoMustNotBeNamed called Relative Bandwidth Filter . We use it to filter out signals and create signals only when the Relative Bandwith Line below middle line.
The default values for both indicators changed a bit, especially used linreg values to create relatively better signals. These can be changed in settings. Please be aware that i did not do extensive testing with this indicator in different market conditions so it should be used with caution.
Customizable Non-Repainting HTF MACD MFI Scalper Bot StrategyThis script was originally shared by Wunderbit as a free open source script for the community to work with.
WHAT THIS SCRIPT DOES:
It is intended for use on an algorithmic bot trading platform but can be used for scalping and manual trading.
This strategy is based on the trend-following momentum indicator . It includes the Money Flow index as an additional point for entry.
HOW IT DOES IT:
It uses a combination of MACD and MFI indicators to create entry signals. Parameters for each indicator have been surfaced for user configurability.
Take profits are fixed, but stop loss uses ATR configuration to minimize losses and close profitably.
HOW IS MY VERSION ORIGINAL:
I started trying to deploy this script myself in my algorithmic trading but ran into some issues which I have tried to address in this version.
Delayed Signals : The script has been refactored to use a time frame drop down. The higher time frame can be run on a faster chart (recommended on one minute chart for fastest signal confirmation and relay to algotrading platform.)
Repainting Issues : All indicators have been recoded to use the security function that checks to see if the current calculation is in realtime, if it is, then it uses the previous bar for calculation. If you are still experiencing repainting issues based on intended (or non intended use), please provide a report with screenshot and explanation so I can try to address.
Filtering : I have added to additional filters an ABOVE EMA Filter and a BELOW RSI Filter (both can be turned on and off)
Customizable Long and Close Messages : This allows someone to use the script for algorithmic trading without having to alter code. It also means you can use one indicator for all of your different alterts required for your bots.
HOW TO USE IT:
It is intended to be used in the 5-30 minute time frames, but you might be able to get a good configuration for higher time frames. I welcome feedback from other users on what they have found.
Find a pair with high volatility (example KUCOIN:ETH3LUSDT ) - I have found it works particularly well with 3L and 3S tokens for crypto. although it the limitation is that confrigurations I have found to work typically have low R/R ratio, but very high win rate and profit factor.
Ideally set one minute chart for bots, but you can use other charts for manual trading. The signal will be delayed by one bar but I have found configurations that still test well.
Select a time frame in configuration for your indicator calculations.
Select the strategy config for time frame. I like to use 5 and 15 minutes for scalping scenarios, but I am interested in hearing back from other community memebers.
Optimize your indicator without filters (trendFilter and RSI Filter)
Use the TrendFilter and RSI Filter to further refine your signals for entry. You will get less entries but you can increase your win ratio.
I will add screenshots and possibly a video provided that it passes community standards.
Limitations: this works rather well for short term, and does some good forward testing but back testing large data sets is a problem when switching from very small time frame to large time frame. For instance, finding a configuration that works on a one minute chart but then changing to a 1 hour chart means you lose some of your intra bar calclulations. There are some new features in pine script which might be able to address, this, but I have not had a chance to work on that issue.
Parabolic SAR Heikin Ashi MTF Candle ScalperThis is scalper strategy designed around parabolic sar indicator, where as an input candle value it uses the heikinashi from a higher timeframe.
This example has been adapted to SPY/SPX chart
In this case ,we are using a 5 min chart, but the calculations are made on a 15 min heikin ashi chart for the PSAR and then on 5 min chart we plot the results.
At the same time we are conditioning the entry to be base on a time/session for daytrading/scalper mentality
In this case we only enter within the first 30 min of SPY opening session , and then we exit after 3-4 hours of staying in the position ( unless we hit a reverse condition).
For long condition we enter when the mtf ha candle close is above the mtf psar and for short condition we enter when the mtf ha candle close is below the mtf psar
This script is made with an educational purpose to show the power of multiple time frame approach compared to a single chart.
If you have any questions, let me know !
MACD Scalper AnalysisThis is a scalper analysis movement designed around MACD and 200 EMA
The rules are simple:
For long we check if the close of the candle is above the ema200 and we have a crossover between macd and signal
Once this happens we analyse the next candle, if its close higher than open , we can consider it a win and if its close lower than open we consider a lose.
For short we check if the close of the candle is below the ema200 and we have a crossunder between macd and signal
Once this happens we analyse the next candle, if its close higher than open , we can consider it a loss and if its close lower than open we consider a win.
Once we have all of this we analyse the average percentage movement and establish if the specific asset or timeframe is worthy for us.
At the same time it can give a good idea if we can go with a divergence strategy, like for example we have a short entry, but we will actually go long and viceversa.
If you have any questions let me know !
Trend Friend - Swing Trade & Scalp Signals - Stocks Crypto ForexTREND FRIEND is a custom built, data driven algorithm that gives buy and sell signals when many different factors line up together on a single candle. It is designed to catch every move so you can expect early entries and exits across all of your favorite markets. Use scalp mode for early entries with lots of signals or swing mode for longer swings with fewer signals and long swing mode for really long swing trades with even less signals.
The best markets to use this indicator on are high volume tickers with a lot of price action as these markets have enough data to use to give the signals the algo needs to be able to detect highly probable moves in price. That being said, it works across all markets such as stocks, crypto, forex and futures and across all timeframes(on really long timeframes it may not give signals due to not having enough data to work with).
***MAJOR POINTS TO REMEMBER BEFORE USING THIS INDICATOR***
The algo is designed to catch major moves, so if a signal seems to come in late, it is highly likely the market is about to reverse so use caution when taking signals that seem late. This typically happens because the market is indecisive so always be careful in these situations and just wait for a better signal when markets are really decisive.
Always trade in the direction of the trend meaning the volume weighted moving average clouds. There is also a trend detection label and risk level label that you should follow to keep your trades as safe as possible. The safest way to do this is only trade short when the VWMA 100 is below the VWMA 500 and a Bear signal comes in very close to a VWMA line. Only trade long when the VWMA 100 is above the VWMA 500 and a Bull signal comes in very close to a VWMA line.
If price is between the moving averages, play the VWMA 100 and VWMA 500 as support and resistance and only take signals near one of the VWMAs with the plan of price returning to the other VWMA. If you are taking trades against the trend, like trying to buy the dips or sell the tops, wait for price to cross the VWMA 100 before following a signal.
If the VWMA 100 and VWMA 500 are close to each other and/or moving sideways, you can expect choppy price action and consolidation so use caution when taking trades during this time. It is better to wait for the price to hold above or below both VWMAs and stay supportive there before taking trades. Waiting for volume to increase is also a good way to avoid chop after the trend decides a direction.
This indicator will repaint sometimes before the candle has closed, so either wait for the candle to close with a signal before entering trades or only take signals before it closes on candles with good volume and technical analysis backing it.
***ALL THE FEATURES YOU NEED***
Trend Friend has multiple features designed to help you trade better and make decisions faster.
Buy & Sell Signals - When the algo detects all of our required parameters lining up on a single candle, Trend Friend will give Bull or Bear signals on the chart. Bull means upward price action is expected. Bear means downward price action is expected.
Take Profit Signals - When the price action makes a move that typically signals a reversal, a take profit signal will show up on the chart to help you get out of a trade before the next signal comes in.
Risk Levels For Signals
There is a risk detection system that tells you how risky each signal is as it comes in to help you stay out of dangerous trades. Wait for signals with low risk and you’ll be much safer than trying to take trades against the trend.
Alerts - There are options for alerts on buy signals, sell signals, take profit signals, price crossing the VWMA 100 and price crossing the VWMA 500. All of these can be controlled using tradingview alerts so you don't have to watch the charts and wait for things to happen. These alerts can also be used to send orders to trading bots if you choose.
Candles Painted Green Or Red According To Buy & Sell Pressure - By default, this indicator paints the candle sticks green, red or blue according to buy & sell pressure(DMI). You will need to turn off candle colors in your chart settings for this to appear correctly.
Percentage Updates - The table on the right has live percentage updates so you don’t have to measure out every move you are expecting. It will tell you the percentage from closest fibonacci levels, percentage away from the VWAP, percent gain or loss from the last signal entry and percentages from your own trades that can be configured in the settings. These help you always know how much more you can squeeze out of a trade and where your position stands without having to switch screens between Tradingview and your broker constantly.
Moving Average & VWAP Clouds - We included two color coded volume weighted moving averages(VWMA 100 and VWMA 500) and a color coded RMA 10 moving average. We also have a VWAP dotted line and cloud so you can easily see the trend direction on the chart at all times. The cloud and moving averages will turn green or red in real time depending on whether price is above or below each moving average or the VWAP respectively.
Trend Detection Label - The top label on the percentage update table tells you if the trend for this timeframe is Bullish or Bearish as well as when the trend is undecisive with choppy price action expected.
Chop & Low Volume Warning Labels - When price action is choppy or there is very low volume compared to historic candles, a warning label will appear at the top of the screen so you know to use caution and stay out of trades during these times.
Auto Fibonacci Levels - The chart will automatically populate fibonacci retracement and extension levels. The percentage update table will also give you real time updates on how far away the next fibonacci levels are from the current price.
Bounce Zone - We also included a very long term moving average cloud(EMA 1000 and EMA 2000) that shows as purple on the chart. When price enters that cloud, you can expect a reversal in that area. If price was trending above the cloud, expect that cloud to act as support. If price was trending below the cloud, expect that cloud to act as resistance. When price is trying to break through that cloud in either direction you can expect price action to be choppy and big moves to happen once price gets supportive in that zone and breaks out.
Margin Multiplier - If you are using margin to trade, our margin multiplier will multiply all of the percentage updates by the margin level you input in the settings tab so your percentages will reflect the percentages in your account.
***HOW TO USE***
Scalp, Swing And Long Swing Mode
You can choose from scalp mode, swing mode or long swing mode in the indicator settings. It is set to scalp mode by default. Scalpers will want to use the scalp mode as it provides early entries and exits and is designed to catch every move quickly. Swing mode is designed to catch almost every move and filter out some of the noise so it will have less signals than scalp mode. Long swing mode is designed to catch those lengthy moves and will hold positions the longest but give entries later than the other modes.
Try all three on a few charts and timeframes to see which setting matches your trading style the best. If you want more signals with any of the 3 modes, go to a lower timeframe. If you want less signals on any mode, go to a higher timeframe.
Bull & Bear Signals - When all of our algo parameters line up, a BULL or BEAR label will print on the chart. Bull labels will be colored green and bear labels will be colored red. Bull indicates a good place to enter a long trade because the algo is detecting patterns that indicate price should move upwards. Bear indicates a good place to enter a short trade because the algo is detecting patterns that indicate price should move downwards.
For best results using these signals, take trade signals that line up very closely with fibonacci levels or volume weighted moving averages or the vwap or any combination of them. It is also recommended to only take trades in the direction of the trend to avoid trading false reversals. Wait for low risk signals using our risk identifier and then enter the market. Waiting for good volume to come in will also help you avoid chop and catch those quick moves.
Also, make sure to check the percentage updates table to see if the expected move to the next fibonacci level is far enough away to make the risk to reward ratio worth taking the trade. Watch for signals when the VWMAs squeeze together after a wide gap and price breaks out with a corresponding signal as these can bring large, quick moves in price. Use caution when the VWMAs are close to each other and trending sideways as this usually brings choppy price action.
(The bull and bear signals can be turned on or off in the indicator settings input tab. Useful if you want to clean up the chart or only show bear or bull signals according to the trend.)
Take profit Signals - Take profit labels will show up on the chart when a reversal candle pattern or reversal indicator pattern is detected while a trade is still open. Use these signals as times that it may be a good point to exit the trade to avoid losses or reduced profits.
(The take profit signals can be turned on or off in the indicator settings input tab.)
Risk Level Label
Taking trades against the trend is dangerous because there are more false bottoms than there are actual bottoms. Our risk detection label is there to keep you from taking dangerous trades against the trend. The label will say Low Risk when the trend is in the same direction as the last signal given. The label will say Medium Risk when the trend is neutral because price likes to chop around during these times. The label will say High Risk when the trend is in the opposite direction as the last signal given.
Make sure you wait for the risk level detector to show Low Risk before taking trades or you may be buying a false bottom.
Candles Colored According To Buy & Sell Pressure - By default this indicator will paint the candlesticks green, red or blue depending on the buy & sell pressure for those candles using the Directional Movement Index or DMI. If buy pressure is higher than sell pressure, it will paint green. If Sell pressure is higher than buy pressure, it will paint red. If buy pressure is equal to sell pressure, it will paint blue. Use this to confirm which direction buying and selling is favoring and use a change in color trend to determine reversal points early. For this to work correctly you will need to go into chart settings(gear icon top right) and in the symbol tab turn off body, wicks and border.
(The buy & sell pressure candle coloring can be turned on or off in the indicator settings input tab.)
Auto Fibonacci - This indicator will automatically populate fibonacci retracement and extension levels for you. These levels are calculated using the previous high and low. You can switch the source between the previous day, week, month, quarter and year(the weekly setting is the default as it is great for day trading). The previous high and low levels will show as white(These are very important levels so watch for price to bounce off of the white lines). The percentage update table will also show the percentage gap from the current price and the next closest fibonacci level above and below, with labels telling you which fib levels they are.
(The fibonacci levels can be turned on or off in the indicator settings input tab.)
Volume Weighted Moving Averages With Clouds - The red or green moving averages should be treated as dynamic support and resistance as well as a visual way of telling current price trends. You can expect price to bounce off of these moving averages very often and quick moves usually happen when price breaks out of these moving averages.
The safest long trades you can take will be when the VWMA 100 is above the VWMA 500 and you get a BULL signal that is very close to the VWMA 100 or VWMA 500. The safest short trades you can take will be when the VWMA 100 is below the VWMA 500 and you get a BEAR signal that is very close to the VWMA 100 or VWMA 500.
When the moving averages squeeze together and price bounces between them, you can expect big moves in price when it breaks out. If price has been trending up and the moving averages squeeze together, expect the price to fall quickly once it breaks down from there. If price has been trending down and the moving averages squeeze together, expect the price to jump quickly once it breaks out from there.
These moving averages and the clouds associated with them will paint green when price is above them, indicating a bullish trend and they will change to red when price is below the moving averages, indicating a bearish trend.
You can also use the moving averages as support and resistance levels when markets are moving sideways. Since these are volume weighted moving averages, price tends to stick to them very well and paints a much clearer picture of what is going to happen than regular moving averages that don't take volume into account. Try it on a bunch of different timeframes and charts to see for yourself.

Bounce Zone - The bounce zone is a purple cloud that is made up of two very long term moving averages. When price is trending above this cloud and comes back down to it, you can expect the price to bounce back upwards in this zone. If the price is trending below this cloud and comes up to it, you can expect the price to bounce back downwards when it reaches this zone.
Sometimes price will break through this cloud and you will usually notice a lot of choppy price action and accumulation in this zone. When price does break out of it, you can expect fast, large moves. I also like to call this zone the safe zone because taking trades in this zone is typically a very safe place to enter trades depending on how the price is trending before it entered this zone. If you look at the cloud on any of your favorite charts, you will see that the cloud usually represents support and resistance areas quite well.
(The bounce zone can be turned on or off in the indicator settings input tab.)
Chop & Low Volume Warnings - When price is choppy, it can be a portfolio killer. When volume is low, it can give false signals or the market can reverse easily, so stay out of trades when these warning labels appear on your chart. If you were already in a trade when these warnings appear, keep a close eye on your trades and be ready to exit if things start to go the wrong way.
Long & Short Entry Calculator - Here you can enter your own entry price for short or long positions so that your actual P&L will be shown live on your chart. This eliminates the need to calculate percentages in your head or switch screens to your broker often or use the measuring tool to calculate your P&L. These will show as zero until a trade price is entered.
Margin Multiplier - If you use margin to trade, enter your margin multiplier in this input and all of the percentages in the percentage update table will reflect how far each level is based on your margin. So a 5x margin will multiply all percentages in the chart by 5 and so on. This way you don’t have to calculate everything in your head or switch between your chart and your broker constantly.
Customization - Go into the indicator settings and you can customize just about everything to suit your style. In the Input tab you can: turn the Bull or Bear labels off or on so you only get the signals that are going in the direction of the trend, turn on or off the moving average lines & clouds, turn on or off the vwap & clouds, set your fibonacci timeframe or turn them off completely and set your long or short entry price as well as your margin level for percentage updates according to your portfolio.
You can also easily customize: the moving average lines & clouds, the bounce zone lines and cloud, the vwap color and line style, the support and resistance line colors and thickness, the bull and bear label styles, the take profit label styles and more.

No indicator can be right 100% of the time and remember that past results do not guarantee future performance. You still need to make smart decisions when using this indicator to be successful. It is also important to note that markets with little volume and price action may not give very good signals due to many different parameters needing to line up on one candle for a signal to be given so use it on high volume tickers with lots of price action for best results.
