* Pressure Sensitivity: Adjusts the sensitivity of threshold detection for flow classification.
* Flow Smoothing: Controls the smoothing applied to raw flow data.
* Market Depth Analysis: Sets the depth range for rejection and wick analysis.
* Colors: Customize colors for accumulation, distribution, neutral zones, and pressure visualization.
INDICATOR LOGIC:
The IU Liquidity Flow Tracker uses a multi-factor model to evaluate market behavior:
1. Liquidity Pressure: Combines price spread, price efficiency, and volume imbalance.
2. Flow Direction: Weighted momentum using short, medium, and long-term price changes adjusted for volume.
3. Market Depth: Wick-based rejection scoring to estimate buying/selling aggressiveness at price extremes.
4. Composite Flow Index: Blended value of flow direction, pressure, and depth—smoothed for clarity.
5. Dynamic Thresholds: Automatically adjusts based on volatility to classify the market into:
* Accumulation: Strong buying signals.
* Distribution: Strong selling signals.
* Neutral: No significant flow dominance.
6. Entry Signals: Long/Short signals are generated when flow state shifts, supported by momentum, volume surge, and depth strength.
WHY IT IS UNIQUE:
Unlike typical indicators that rely solely on price or volume, this tool combines spread behavior, volume polarity, momentum weighting, and price rejection zones into a single visual interface. It dynamically adjusts sensitivity based on market volatility, helping avoid false signals during sideways or low-volume periods.
It is not based on any traditional indicator (RSI, MACD, etc.), making it ideal for traders looking for an original and data-driven market read.
HOW USER CAN BENEFIT FROM IT:
* Understand Market Context: Know whether the market is being accumulated, distributed, or ranging.
* Improve Entries/Exits: Use flow transitions combined with volume confirmation for high-probability setups.

Fallback VWAP (No Volume? No Problem!) – Yogi365Fallback VWAP (No Volume? No Problem!) – Yogi365
This script plots Daily, Weekly, and Monthly VWAPs with ±1 Standard Deviation bands. When volume data is missing or zero (common in indices or illiquid assets), it automatically falls back to a TWAP-style calculation, ensuring that your VWAP levels always remain visible and accurate.
Features:
Daily, Weekly, and Monthly VWAPs with ±1 Std Dev bands.
Auto-detection of missing volume and seamless fallback.
Clean, color-coded trend table showing price vs VWAP/bands.
Uses hlc3 for VWAP source.
Labels indicate when fallback is used.
Best Used On:
Any asset or index where volume is unavailable.
Intraday and swing trading.
Works on all timeframes but optimized for overlay use.
How it Works:
If volume == 0, the script uses a constant fallback volume (1), turning the VWAP into a TWAP (Time-Weighted Average Price) — still useful for intraday or index-based analysis.
This ensures consistent plotting on instruments like indices (e.g., NIFTY, SENSEX,DJI etc.) which might not provide volume on TradingView.

Momentum Trend Bands (MTB)📌 What Is the Momentum Trend Bands (MTB) Indicator?
The Momentum Trend Bands (MTB) is a custom-built trend detection indicator that blends momentum and volatility into a dynamic, visual system. Its core goal is to help traders identify the beginning and strength of a trend earlier than traditional tools like moving averages, while filtering out market noise.
🧠 What Is It Built On?
The indicator is built on two foundational concepts:
1. Rate of Change (ROC): This measures the speed at which the price is moving. We use a fast and a slow version of ROC and then calculate their difference. This difference gives us a momentum signal — it shows whether the price is gaining upward or downward strength.
2. Standard Deviation (Volatility): This shows how much the price fluctuates. By calculating it over a certain period, we can measure market noise and filter out weak, insignificant moves that might otherwise cause false signals.
Together, momentum shows direction, and volatility shows confidence.
🛠️ How Does It Work?
• The core of the indicator is a smoothed momentum signal, representing the net difference between fast and slow momentum.
• Around this signal, we build upper and lower bands — these are dynamic boundaries that expand or contract based on volatility.
• When the momentum breaks above or below these bands, it signals a strong directional move — suggesting the start or continuation of a trend.
The bands also serve a visual filter:
• If momentum stays within the bands, it implies the market is consolidating or ranging.
• When it exits the bands decisively, it implies strength in that direction.
📈 How to Use It?
1. Trend Entry:
o When the momentum signal rises above the upper band, it suggests a strong bullish trend may be starting.
o When the signal drops below the lower band, it indicates a bearish trend.
2. Stay Out of Chop:
o If the signal moves sideways within the bands, it’s best to avoid trading — the market is likely consolidating or ranging.
3. Visual Confirmation:
o The background color changes with the trend: green for bullish, red for bearish, gray for neutral. This makes it quick to read visually.
4. Signal Arrows:
o Small up or down arrows appear when trends begin, serving as early entry points.
⚙️ What Kind of Market Does It Work Best In?
• Trending Markets: MTB shines in markets with strong directional movement — whether up or down. It's designed to pick up momentum early and hold through trend continuation.
• Volatile Instruments: The built-in volatility filter helps in markets like crypto or commodities where price action is fast and erratic.
• Avoid Flat or Low-Volume Conditions: In sideways markets, MTB may stay gray or flip often — these are not ideal times to trade using this indicator alone.
💎 Why Is It Unique?
Unlike many indicators that react slowly (like moving averages) or trigger too often (like raw momentum), MTB balances early detection with reliability. Its unique combination of:
• ROC difference for directional intent,
• Smoothing for signal clarity,
• Bands scaled by volatility for robustness,
…makes it stand apart from commonly available indicators on platforms like TradingView.
40 Ticker Cross-Sectional Z-Scores [BackQuant]40 Ticker Cross-Sectional Z-Scores
BackQuant’s 40 Ticker Cross-Sectional Z-Scores is a powerful portfolio management strategy that analyzes the relative performance of up to 40 different assets, comparing them on a cross-sectional basis to identify the top and bottom performers. This indicator computes Z-scores for each asset based on their log returns and evaluates them relative to the mean and standard deviation over a rolling window. The Z-scores represent how far an asset's return deviates from the average, and these values are used to rank the assets, allowing for dynamic asset allocation based on performance.
By focusing on the strongest-performing assets and avoiding the weakest, this strategy aims to enhance returns while managing risk. Additionally, by adjusting for standard deviations, the system offers a risk-adjusted method of ranking assets, making it suitable for traders who want to dynamically allocate capital based on performance metrics rather than just price movements.
Key Features
1. Cross-Sectional Z-Score Calculation:
The system calculates Z-scores for 40 different assets, evaluating their log returns against the mean and standard deviation over a rolling window. This enables users to assess the relative performance of each asset dynamically, highlighting which assets are performing better or worse compared to their historical norms. The Z-score is a useful statistical tool for identifying outliers in asset performance.
2. Asset Ranking and Allocation:
The system ranks assets based on their Z-scores and allocates capital to the top performers. It identifies the top and bottom assets, and traders can allocate capital to the top-performing assets, ensuring that their portfolio is aligned with the best performers. Conversely, the bottom assets are removed from the portfolio, reducing exposure to underperforming assets.
3. Rolling Window for Mean and Standard Deviation Calculations:
The Z-scores are calculated based on rolling means and standard deviations, making the system adaptive to changing market conditions. This rolling calculation window allows the strategy to adjust to recent performance trends and minimize the impact of outdated data.
4. Mean and Standard Deviation Visualization:
The script provides real-time visualizations of the mean (x̄) and standard deviation (σ) of asset returns, helping traders quickly identify trends and volatility in their portfolio. These visual indicators are useful for understanding the current market environment and making more informed allocation decisions.
5. Top & Bottom Performer Tables:
The system generates tables that display the top and bottom performers, ranked by their Z-scores. Traders can quickly see which assets are outperforming and underperforming. These tables provide clear and actionable insights, helping traders make informed decisions about which assets to include in their portfolio.
6. Customizable Parameters:
The strategy allows traders to customize several key parameters, including:
Rolling Calculation Window: Set the window size for the rolling mean and standard deviation calculations.
Top & Bottom Tickers: Choose how many of the top and bottom assets to display and allocate capital to.
Table Orientation: Select between vertical or horizontal table formats to suit the user’s preference.
7. Forward Test & Out-of-Sample Testing:
The system includes out-of-sample forward tests, ensuring that the strategy is evaluated based on real-time performance, not just historical data. This forward testing approach helps validate the robustness of the strategy in dynamic market conditions.
8. Visual Feedback and Alerts:
The system provides visual feedback on the current asset rankings and allocations, with dynamic labels and plots on the chart. Additionally, users receive alerts when allocations change, keeping them informed of important adjustments.
9. Risk Management via Z-Scores and Std Dev:
The system’s approach to asset selection is based on Z-scores, which normalize performance relative to the historical mean. By incorporating standard deviation, it accounts for the volatility and risk associated with each asset. This allows for more precise risk management and portfolio construction.
10. Note on Mean Reversion Strategy:
If you take the inverse of the signals provided by this indicator, the strategy can be used for mean-reversion rather than trend-following. This would involve buying the underperforming assets and selling the outperforming ones. However, it's important to note that this approach does not work well with highly correlated assets, as the relationship between the assets could result in the same directional movement, undermining the effectiveness of the mean-reversion strategy.

Final Thoughts
The 40 Ticker Cross-Sectional Z-Scores strategy offers a data-driven approach to portfolio management, dynamically allocating capital based on the relative performance of assets. By using Z-scores and standard deviations, this strategy ensures that capital is directed to the strongest performers while avoiding weaker assets, ultimately improving the risk-adjusted returns of the portfolio. Whether you’re focused on trend-following or looking to explore mean-reversion strategies, this flexible system can be tailored to suit your investment goals.
Performance Metrics With Bracketed Rebalacing [BackQuant]Performance Metrics With Bracketed Rebalancing
The Performance Metrics With Bracketed Rebalancing script offers a robust method for assessing portfolio performance, integrating advanced portfolio metrics with different rebalancing strategies. With a focus on adaptability, the script allows traders to monitor and adjust portfolio weights, equity, and other key financial metrics dynamically. This script provides a versatile approach for evaluating different trading strategies, considering factors like risk-adjusted returns, volatility, and the impact of portfolio rebalancing.
Please take the time to read the following:
Key Features and Benefits of Portfolio Methods
Bracketed Rebalancing:
Bracketed Rebalancing is an advanced strategy designed to trigger portfolio adjustments when an asset's weight surpasses a predefined threshold. This approach minimizes overexposure to any single asset while maintaining flexibility in response to market changes. The strategy is particularly beneficial for mitigating risks that arise from significant asset weight fluctuations. The following image illustrates how this method reacts when asset weights cross the threshold:
Daily Rebalancing:
Unlike the bracketed method, Daily Rebalancing adjusts portfolio weights every trading day, ensuring consistent asset allocation. This method aims for a more even distribution of portfolio weights, making it a suitable option for traders who prefer less sensitivity to individual asset volatility. Here's an example of Daily Rebalancing in action:
No Rebalancing:
For traders who prefer a passive approach, the "No Rebalancing" option allows the portfolio to remain static, without any adjustments to asset weights. This method may appeal to long-term investors or those who believe in the inherent stability of their selected assets. Here’s how the portfolio looks when no rebalancing is applied:
Portfolio Weights Visualization:
One of the standout features of this script is the visual representation of portfolio weights. With adjustable settings, users can track the current allocation of assets in real-time, making it easier to analyze shifts and trends. The following image shows the real-time weight distribution across three assets:
Rolling Drawdown Plot:
Managing drawdown risk is a critical aspect of portfolio management. The Rolling Drawdown Plot visually tracks the drawdown over time, helping traders monitor the risk exposure and performance relative to the peak equity levels. This feature is essential for assessing the portfolio's resilience during market downturns:
Daily Portfolio Returns:
Tracking daily returns is crucial for evaluating the short-term performance of the portfolio. The script allows users to plot daily portfolio returns to gain insights into daily profit or loss, helping traders stay updated on their portfolio’s progress:
Performance Metrics
Net Profit (%):
This metric represents the total return on investment as a percentage of the initial capital. A positive net profit indicates that the portfolio has gained value over the evaluation period, while a negative value suggests a loss. It's a fundamental indicator of overall portfolio performance.
Maximum Drawdown (Max DD):
Maximum Drawdown measures the largest peak-to-trough decline in portfolio value during a specified period. It quantifies the most significant loss an investor would have experienced if they had invested at the highest point and sold at the lowest point within the timeframe. A smaller Max DD indicates better risk management and less exposure to significant losses.
Annual Mean Returns (% p/y):
This metric calculates the average annual return of the portfolio over the evaluation period. It provides insight into the portfolio's ability to generate returns on an annual basis, aiding in performance comparison with other investment opportunities.
Annual Standard Deviation of Returns (% p/y):
This measure indicates the volatility of the portfolio's returns on an annual basis. A higher standard deviation signifies greater variability in returns, implying higher risk, while a lower value suggests more stable returns.
Variance:
Variance is the square of the standard deviation and provides a measure of the dispersion of returns. It helps in understanding the degree of risk associated with the portfolio's returns.
Sortino Ratio:
The Sortino Ratio is a variation of the Sharpe Ratio that only considers downside risk, focusing on negative volatility. It is calculated as the difference between the portfolio's return and the minimum acceptable return (MAR), divided by the downside deviation. A higher Sortino Ratio indicates better risk-adjusted performance, emphasizing the importance of avoiding negative returns.
Sharpe Ratio:
The Sharpe Ratio measures the portfolio's excess return per unit of total risk, as represented by standard deviation. It is calculated by subtracting the risk-free rate from the portfolio's return and dividing by the standard deviation of the portfolio's excess return. A higher Sharpe Ratio indicates more favorable risk-adjusted returns.
Omega Ratio:
The Omega Ratio evaluates the probability of achieving returns above a certain threshold relative to the probability of experiencing returns below that threshold. It is calculated by dividing the cumulative probability of positive returns by the cumulative probability of negative returns. An Omega Ratio greater than 1 indicates a higher likelihood of achieving favorable returns.
Gain-to-Pain Ratio:
The Gain-to-Pain Ratio measures the return per unit of risk, focusing on the magnitude of gains relative to the severity of losses. It is calculated by dividing the total gains by the total losses experienced during the evaluation period. A higher ratio suggests a more favorable balance between reward and risk.

Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) (% p/y):
CAGR represents the mean annual growth rate of the portfolio over a specified period, assuming the investment has been compounding over that time. It provides a smoothed annual rate of growth, eliminating the effects of volatility and offering a clearer picture of long-term performance.
Portfolio Alpha (% p/y):
Portfolio Alpha measures the portfolio's performance relative to a benchmark index, adjusting for risk. It is calculated using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) and represents the excess return of the portfolio over the expected return based on its beta and the benchmark's performance. A positive alpha indicates outperformance, while a negative alpha suggests underperformance.
Portfolio Beta:
Portfolio Beta assesses the portfolio's sensitivity to market movements, indicating its exposure to systematic risk. A beta greater than 1 suggests the portfolio is more volatile than the market, while a beta less than 1 indicates lower volatility. Beta is used to understand the portfolio's potential for gains or losses in relation to market fluctuations.
Skewness of Returns:
Skewness measures the asymmetry of the return distribution. A positive skew indicates a distribution with a long right tail, suggesting more frequent small losses and fewer large gains. A negative skew indicates a long left tail, implying more frequent small gains and fewer large losses. Understanding skewness helps in assessing the likelihood of extreme outcomes.
Value at Risk (VaR) 95th Percentile:
VaR at the 95th percentile estimates the maximum potential loss over a specified period, given a 95% confidence level. It provides a threshold value such that there is a 95% probability that the portfolio will not experience a loss greater than this amount.
Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR):
CVaR, also known as Expected Shortfall, measures the average loss exceeding the VaR threshold. It provides insight into the tail risk of the portfolio, indicating the expected loss in the worst-case scenarios beyond the VaR level.
These metrics collectively offer a comprehensive view of the portfolio's performance, risk exposure, and efficiency. By analyzing these indicators, investors can make informed decisions, balancing potential returns with acceptable levels of risk.
Conclusion
The Performance Metrics With Bracketed Rebalancing script provides a comprehensive framework for evaluating and optimizing portfolio performance. By integrating advanced metrics, adaptive rebalancing strategies, and visual analytics, it empowers traders to make informed decisions in managing their investment portfolios. However, it's crucial to consider the implications of rebalancing strategies, as academic research indicates that predictable rebalancing can lead to market impact costs. Therefore, adopting flexible and less predictable rebalancing approaches may enhance portfolio performance and reduce associated costs.

Uses ta.change(time("D")) to identify a new trading day.
When a new day starts, it checks if the very first candle of the session is a Shooting Star.
2. 🕯️ Identifies a Shooting Star Pattern
A candle is labeled a Shooting Star if:
It has a small body compared to the full candle range.
It has a long upper shadow at least 2× the body.
It has a short or tiny lower shadow.
All these criteria are adjustable through inputs.
3. 📦 Draws a Box for the First Candle Range
If a Shooting Star is found in the first candle of the day:
It draws a red shaded box covering the high and low of that candle.
The box visually marks the potential Opening Range.
4. 💥 Detects Breakout from Shooting Star Candle
After the first candle:
If price moves above or below the range by a specified % (like 1%), it flags a breakout.
A blue shaded box is drawn at the breakout candle for visual confirmation.
5. 🔔 Alerts
🔴 Shooting Star Detected: Alerts when the first candle is a shooting star.
🔵 Breakout Detected: Alerts when the price breaks out of the first candle’s range.
6. 📊 Displays Real-Time Info Table
A small table is shown on the chart:
🕯️ Pattern: “Shooting Star” or blank
💥 Breakout: “Yes” or “No”

Adjustable Vertical LinesThe script provides an indicator which will plot lines - 15 min, 30 min and 60 min. You can customize the time intervals and go to as low as one minute, but I found the 15-minute and 30-minute intervals works best for me when trying to find setups, and the lower time-frame intervals, is just pointless to use if you're not scalping on the seconds timeframe.
You can customize inputs for the line style. Line thickness, colour, etc.
I've seen this work using the OBR theory and applying it to the one-minute candle then looking for other confluences like order blocks, or breakers, FVGs, BOS/CHoC for further confirmation for scalping. It's important to backtest though and see for yourself.
Thanks for the boost.
CNN Statistical Trading System [PhenLabs]📌 DESCRIPTION
An advanced pattern recognition system utilizing Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) principles to identify statistically significant market patterns and generate high-probability trading signals.
CNN Statistical Trading System transforms traditional technical analysis by applying machine learning concepts directly to price action. Through six specialized convolution kernels, it detects momentum shifts, reversal patterns, consolidation phases, and breakout setups simultaneously. The system combines these pattern detections using adaptive weighting based on market volatility and trend strength, creating a sophisticated composite score that provides both directional bias and signal confidence on a normalized -1 to +1 scale.
🚀 CONCEPTS
• Built on Convolutional Neural Network pattern recognition methodology adapted for financial markets
• Six specialized kernels detect distinct price patterns: upward/downward momentum, peak/trough formations, consolidation, and breakout setups
• Activation functions create non-linear responses with tanh-like behavior, mimicking neural network layers
• Adaptive weighting system adjusts pattern importance based on current market regime (volatility < 2% and trend strength)
• Multi-confirmation signals require CNN threshold breach (±0.65), RSI boundaries, and volume confirmation above 120% of 20-period average
🔧 FEATURES
Six-Kernel Pattern Detection:
Simultaneous analysis of upward momentum, downward momentum, peak/resistance, trough/support, consolidation, and breakout patterns using mathematically optimized convolution kernels.
Adaptive Neural Architecture:
Dynamic weight adjustment based on market volatility (ATR/Price) and trend strength (EMA differential), ensuring optimal performance across different market conditions.
Professional Visual Themes:
Four sophisticated color palettes (Professional, Ocean, Sunset, Monochrome) with cohesive design language. Default Monochrome theme provides clean, distraction-free analysis.
Confidence Band System:
Upper and lower confidence zones at 150% of threshold values (±0.975) help identify high-probability signal areas and potential exhaustion zones.
Real-Time Information Panel:
Live display of CNN score, market state with emoji indicators, net momentum, confidence percentage, and RSI confirmation with dynamic color coding based on signal strength.
Individual Feature Analysis:
Optional display of all six kernel outputs with distinct visual styles (step lines, circles, crosses, area fills) for advanced pattern component analysis.
User Guide
• Monitor CNN Score crossing above +0.65 for long signals or below -0.65 for short signals with volume confirmation
• Use confidence bands to identify optimal entry zones - signals within confidence bands carry higher probability
• Background intensity reflects signal strength - darker backgrounds indicate stronger conviction
• Enter long positions when blue circles appear above oscillator with RSI < 75 and volume > 120% average
• Enter short positions when dark circles appear below oscillator with RSI > 25 and volume confirmation
• Information panel provides real-time confidence percentage and momentum direction for position sizing decisions
• Individual feature plots allow granular analysis of specific pattern components for strategy refinement
💡Conclusion
CNN Statistical Trading System represents the evolution of technical analysis, combining institutional-grade pattern recognition with retail accessibility. The six-kernel architecture provides comprehensive market pattern coverage while adaptive weighting ensures relevance across all market conditions. Whether you’re seeking systematic entry signals or advanced pattern confirmation, this indicator delivers mathematically rigorous analysis with intuitive visual presentation.
IU Pivot Zones + GMADESCRIPTION:
IU Pivot Zones + GMA is a smart price-action-based indicator that detects meaningful support and resistance zones formed through pivot highs/lows while combining them with dynamic zone generation and Geometric Moving Averages (GMA). This tool is built to help traders visualize institutional breakout/rejection zones with clear, logical mapping and live box management — helping you stay ahead of the move.
The indicator is designed for intraday, swing, and positional traders who want to enhance their trading decisions with visual confluence zones and market structure logic.
USER INPUTS
* Pivot point Lengths: Number of bars used to detect pivot highs/lows
* Zone length: Controls the thickness of the support/resistance zone; higher values create wider zones
* GMA Length: Period for calculating the geometric moving averages based on highs and lows
* Allow Bar/candle Color: Enables or disables special candle coloring when price interacts with the zones
LOGIC OF THE INDICATOR:
* Detects pivot highs and pivot lows using the user-defined length
* Compares consecutive pivot levels to determine if they fall within a valid ATR-based price band to form a zone
* If confirmed, the indicator dynamically plots a resistance or support box between those pivot points, colored respectively (red for resistance, green for support)
* The boxes update in real-time based on price action. If price respects the zone, the box extends forward. If price breaks the zone, the box disappears
* Geometric Moving Averages (GMA) based on logarithmic mean of highs and lows are plotted to offer a trend bias
* Candles that touch the top of the support zone are colored yellow, and those touching the bottom of the resistance zone are orange, enhancing zone reaction visibility
WHY IT IS UNIQUE:
* Uses logarithmic-based GMAs, which are smoother and less reactive than traditional moving averages
* ATR-based zone logic makes it adaptive to volatility instead of using fixed-width zones
* Combines structural levels (pivots), volatility filters (ATR), and trend overlays (GMA) in one unified tool
* Real-time zone extension and disappearance logic based on price interaction
HOW USER CAN BENEFIT FROM IT:
* Spot high-probability breakout or reversal zones that price respects consistently
* Use the GMA cloud for trend confirmation — for example, bullish bias when price is above both GMAs
* Build price action strategies around zone touches, breakouts, or rejections
* Use color-coded candles as real-time alerts for potential entry/exit signals near S/R levels
* Save time by avoiding manual marking of zones on charts across timeframes

Sessions [Plug&Play]This indicator automatically highlights the three major FX trading sessions—Asia, London, and New York—on your chart and, at the close of each session, draws right-extended horizontal rays at that session’s high and low. It’s designed to help you visually identify when price is trading within each session’s range and to quickly see where the highest and lowest prices occurred before the next major session begins.
Key Features:
Session Boxes
Draws a semi-transparent box around each session’s timeframe (Asia, London, New York) based on your local UTC offset.
Each box dynamically expands in real time: as new candles form during the session, the box’s top and bottom edges update to match the highest high and lowest low seen so far in that session.
When the session ends, the box remains on your chart, anchored to the exact candles that formed its boundaries.
High/Low Rays
As soon as a session closes (e.g., London session ends at 17:00 UTC+0 by default), two horizontal rays are drawn at that session’s final high and low.
These rays are “pinned” to the exact candles where the high/low occurred, so they stay in place when you scroll or zoom.
Each ray extends indefinitely to the right, providing a clear reference of the key supply/demand levels created during that session.
Session Labels
Optionally places a small “London,” “New York,” or “Asia” label at the top edge of each completed session’s box.
Labels are horizontally centered within the session’s box and use a contrasting, easy-to-read font color.
Customizable Appearance
Show/Hide Each Session: Toggle display of London, New York, and Asia sessions separately.
Time Ranges: By default, London is 08:00–17:00 (UTC), New York is 13:00–22:00 (UTC), and Asia is 00:00–07:00 (UTC). You can override each session’s start/end times using the “Time Range” picker.
Color & Opacity: Assign custom colors to each session. Choose a global “Dark,” “Medium,” or “Light” opacity preset to adjust box fill transparency and border shading.
Show/Hide Labels & Outlines: Turn the text labels and the box borders on or off independently.
UTC Offset Support
If your local broker feed or price data is not in UTC, simply adjust the “UTC Offset (+/–)” input. The indicator will recalculate session start/end times relative to your chosen offset.
How to Use:
Add the Indicator:
Open TradingView’s Pine Editor, paste in this script, and click “Add to Chart.”
By default, you’ll see three translucent boxes appear once each session begins (Asia, London, New York).
Watch in Real Time:
As soon as a session starts, its box will appear anchored to the first candle. The top and bottom of the box expand if new extremes occur.
When the session closes, the final box remains visible and two horizontal rays mark that session’s high and low.
Analyze Key Levels:
Use the high- and low-level rays to gauge session liquidity zones—areas where stop orders, breakouts, or reversals often occur.
For example, if London’s high is significantly above current price, it may act as resistance in the New York session.
Customize to Your Needs:
Toggle specific sessions on/off (e.g., if you only care about London and New York).
Change each session’s color to match your chart theme.
Adjust the “UTC Offset” so sessions align with your local time.
Disable labels or box borders if you prefer a cleaner look.
Inputs Overview:
Show London/New York/Asia Session (bool): Show or hide each session’s box and its high/low rays.
Time Range (session): Defines the start/end of each session in “HHMM–HHMM” (24h) format.
Colour (color): Custom color for each session’s box fill, border, and high/low rays.
Show Session Labels (bool): Toggle the “London,” “New York,” “Asia” text that appears at the top of each completed box.
Show Range Outline (bool): Toggle the box border (if off, only a translucent fill is drawn).
Opacity Preset (Dark/Medium/Light): Controls transparency of box fill and border.
UTC Offset (+/–) (int): Adjusts session times for different time zones (e.g., +1 for UTC+1).
Why It’s Useful:
Quickly Identify Session Activity: Visually distinguish when each major trading session is active, then compare price action across sessions.
Pinpoint High/Low Liquidity Levels: Drawn rays highlight where the market hit its extremes—critical zones for stop orders or breakout entries.
Multi-Timeframe Context: By seeing historical session boxes and rays, you can locate recurring supply/demand areas, overlap zones, or session re-tests.
Fully Automated Workflow: Once added to your chart, the script does all the work of tracking session boundaries and drawing high/low lines—no manual box or line drawing necessary.
Example Use Cases:
London Breakout Traders: See where London’s high/low formed, then wait for price to revisit those levels during the New York session.
Range Breakout Strategies: If price consolidates inside the London box, use the boxed extremes as immediate targets for breakout entries.
Intraday Liquidity Swings: During quieter hours, watch Asia’s high/low to identify potential support/resistance before London’s opening.
Overlap Zones: Compare London’s range with Asia’s range to find areas of confluence—high-probability reversal or continuation zones.
Buying/Selling ProxyTiltFolio Buying/Selling Proxy
This simple but effective indicator visualizes short-term buying or selling pressure using log returns over a rolling window.
How It Works:
Calculates the average of logarithmic returns over the past N bars (default: 20).
Positive values suggest sustained buying pressure; negative values indicate selling pressure.
Plotted as a color-coded histogram:
✅ Green = net buying
❌ Red = net selling
Why Use It:
This proxy helps traders gauge directional bias and momentum beneath the surface of price action — especially useful for confirming breakout strength, timing entries, or filtering signals.
- Inspired by academic return normalization, but optimized for practical use.
- Use alongside TiltFolio's Breakout Trend indicator for added context.
