[naoligo] Simple ADXI'm publishing this indicator just for study purposes, because the result is exactly the same as DMI without the smoothing factor. It is exactly the same as ADX Wilder from MT5.
I was looking for the algorithm all over and it was a pain to find the right formula, meaning: one that would match with the built-in ones. After several study and comparison, I still didn't find the algorithm that match with the MT5's built-in simple ADX ...
Enjoy!

Zero Lag MACD Enhanced - Version 1.1ENHANCED ZERO LAG MACD
Version 1.1
Based on ZeroLag EMA - see Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities, April 2000
Original version by user Glaz. Thanks !
Ideas and code from @yassotreyo version.
Tweaked by Albert Callisto (AC)
New features:
Added original signal line formula
Added optional EMA on MACD
Added filling between the MACD and signal line
I looked at other versions of the zero lag and noticed that the histogram was slightly different. After looking at other zero lags on TV, I noticed that the algorithm implementation of Glanz generated a modified signal line. I decided to add the old version to be compliant with the original algorithm that you will find in other platforms like MT4, FXCM, etc.
So now you can choose if you want the original algorithm or Glanz version. It's up to you then to choose which one you prefer. I also added an extra EMA applied on the MACD. This is used in a system I am currently studying and can be of some interest to filter out false signals.

Fractal Deviation Bands idea by @XeL_Arjona
CHANGE LOG:
ACCUMULATION / DISTRIBUTION CLOUD: I decided to change it's name from the Buy to Sell Pressure. The code is essentially the same as older versions and they are the center core (VORTEX?) of all derived New stuff which are:
MORPHIC NUMBERS: The "Golden Ratio" expressed by the result of the constant "PHI" and the newer and same in characteristics "Plastic Number" expressed as "PN". For more information about this regard take a look at: HERE!
CUSTOM(K) EXPONENTIAL MOVING AVERAGE: Some code has cleaned from last version to include as custom function the nEMA , which use an additional input (K) to customise the way the "exponentially" is weighted from the custom array. For the purpose of this indicator, I implement a volatility algorithm using the Average True Range of last 9 periods multiplied by the morphic number used in the fractal study. (Golden Ratio as default) The result is very similar in response to classic EMA but tend to accelerate or decelerate much more responsive with wider bars presented in trending average.
FRACTAL DEVIATION BANDS: The main idea is based on the so useful Standard Deviation process to create Bands in favor of a multiplier (As John Bollinger used in it's own bands) from a custom array, in which for this case is the "Volume Pressure Moving Average" as the main Vortex for the "Fractallitly", so then apply as many "Child bands" using the older one as the new calculation array using the same morphic constant as multiplier (Like Fibonacci but with other approach rather than %ratios). Results are AWSOME! Market tend to accelerate or decelerate their Trend in favor of a Fractal approach. This bands try to catch them, so please experiment and feedback me your own observations.
EXTERNAL TICKER FOR VOLUME DATA: I Added a way to input volume data for this kind of study from external tickers. This is just a quicky-hack given that currently TradingView is not adding Volume to their Indexes so; maybe this is temporary by now. It seems that this part of the code is conflicting with intraday timeframes, so You are advised.
This CODE is versioned as BETA FOR TESTING PROPOSES. By now TradingView Admins are changing lot's of things internally, so maybe this could conflict with correct rendering of this study with special tickers or timeframes. I will try to code by itself just the core parts of this study in order to use them at discretion in other areas. ALL NEW IDEAS OR MODIFICATIONS to these indicator(s) are Welcome in favor to deploy a better and more accurate readings. I will be very glad to be notified at Twitter or TradingView accounts at: @XeL_Arjona
QUANT TRADING ENGINE [PointAlgo]Quant Trading Engine is a quantitative market-analysis indicator that combines multiple statistical factors to study trend behavior, mean reversion, volatility, execution efficiency, and market stability.
The indicator converts raw price behavior into standardized signals to help evaluate directional bias and risk conditions in a systematic way.
This script focuses on factor alignment and regime awareness, not prediction certainty.
Design Philosophy
Markets move through different regimes such as trending, ranging, volatile expansion, and instability.
This indicator attempts to model these regimes by blending:
Momentum strength
Mean-reversion pressure
Volatility risk
Trend filtering
Execution context (VWAP)
Correlation structure
Each component is normalized and combined into a single Quant Alpha framework.
Factor Construction
1. Momentum Factor
Measures directional strength using percentage price change over a rolling window.
Standardized using mean and standard deviation.
Represents trend continuation pressure.
2. Mean Reversion Factor
Measures deviation from a longer moving average.
Standardized to identify stretched conditions.
Designed to capture counter-trend behavior.
Directional Clamping
Mean-reversion signals are dynamically restricted:
No counter-trend buying during downtrends.
No counter-trend selling during uptrends.
Allows both sides only in neutral regimes.
This prevents conflicting signals in strong trends.
3. Volatility Factor
Uses realized volatility derived from price changes.
Penalizes environments where volatility deviates significantly from its norm.
Acts as a risk adjustment rather than a directional driver.
4. Composite Quant Alpha
The final Quant Alpha is a weighted blend of:
Momentum
Mean reversion (trend-clamped)
Volatility risk
The composite is standardized into a Z-score, allowing consistent interpretation across instruments and timeframes.
Signal Logic
Buy signal occurs when Quant Alpha crosses above zero.
Sell signal occurs when Quant Alpha crosses below zero.
Zero-cross logic is used to represent shifts from negative to positive statistical bias and vice versa.
Signals reflect statistical regime change, not trade instructions.
Volatility Smile Context
Measures price deviation from its statistical distribution.
Identifies skewed conditions where upside or downside volatility becomes dominant.
Highlights extreme deviations that may imply elevated derivative risk.
Exotic Risk Conditions
Detects sudden price expansion combined with volatility spikes.
Highlights environments where execution and risk become unstable.
Visual background cues are used for awareness only.
Execution Context (VWAP)
Measures price distance from VWAP.
Used to assess execution efficiency rather than direction.
Helps identify stretched conditions relative to average traded price.
Correlation Structure
Evaluates short-term return correlations.
Detects when price behavior becomes less predictable.
Flags structural instability rather than trend direction.
Visualization
The indicator plots:
Quant Alpha (scaled) with directional coloring
Volatility smile deviation
Price vs VWAP distance
Correlation structure
Signal markers indicate Quant Alpha zero-cross events and risk conditions.
Dashboard
A compact dashboard summarizes:
Trend filter state
Quant Alpha polarity and value
Individual factor readings
Current action state (Buy / Sell / Wait / Risk)
The dashboard provides a real-time snapshot of internal model conditions.
Usage Notes
Designed for analytical interpretation and research.
Best used alongside price action and risk management tools.
Factor behavior depends on instrument liquidity and volatility.
Not optimized for illiquid or irregular markets.

Key Levels: Volume Profile POCProfessional Intraday Key Levels (CST)
This is a comprehensive, institutional-grade Pine Script indicator designed for intraday traders (Futures, Stocks, Options) operating in the Central Time Zone. It automatically plots the most significant support and resistance levels used by algorithms and professional desks.
1. Core Levels Monitored
Daily Levels: Previous Day High (PDH), Low (PDL), Open, Close, and the 50% Midpoint (Equilibrium).
Volume Profile POC: Unlike standard indicators that use a simple average, this calculates the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) of the previous day to determine the true "Fair Value" or Point of Control. Plotted with a thicker, distinct purple line.
Weekly Magnets: Previous Week High (PWH) and Low (PWL), which often act as major targets for breakouts or reversals.
Pre-Market Data: Tracks the High and Low established between 03:00 AM – 08:30 AM CST.
Opening Range (OR): Automatically captures the High and Low of the first 60 minutes of the regular session (08:30 AM – 09:30 AM CST).
2. Smart Visualization Features
Anti-Overlap Labels: If two levels (e.g., Pre-Market High and Previous Day High) are within 0.02% of each other, the script automatically merges them into a single label (e.g., "PDH & Pre-Market High") to prevent chart clutter.
Source Tracing: Trace lines extend backward from the current price level to the exact candle where that High or Low was formed (for Pre-Market and Opening Range levels), giving you instant context on when the level was created.
Clean Readability: Labels are displayed in bold, solid text without price numbers, ensuring a clean chart that focuses on level identification rather than data overload.
3. Technical Precision
Time Zone Locked: Hardcoded to America/Chicago to ensure Pre-Market and Opening Range calculations remain accurate regardless of your local computer settings.
Non-Repainting: Daily and Weekly levels are locked using closed-candle data (lookahead_on), ensuring lines do not shift during the trading day.
Buffer Safe: Optimized drawing logic prevents historical buffer errors, even on lower timeframes (1m/5m).
4. Customization
Toggle Everything: Every single level has an individual "Show/Hide" checkbox in the settings.
Label Sizing: Adjustable text size (Tiny to Huge) and offset positioning.
Compact Mode: Option to switch between full names ("Previous Day High") and abbreviations ("PDH").
Bollinger Bands Forecast with Signals (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Bollinger Bands Forecast with Signals (Zeiierman) extends classic Bollinger Bands into a forward-looking framework. Instead of only showing where volatility has been, it projects where the basis (midline) and band width are likely to drift next, based on recent trend and volatility behavior.
The projection is built from the measured slopes of the Bollinger basis, the standard deviation (or ATR, depending on the mode), and a volatility “breathing” component. On top of that, the script includes an optional projected price path that can be blended with a deterministic random walk, plus rejection signals to highlight failed band breaks.
█ How It Works
⚪ Bollinger Core
The script first computes standard Bollinger Bands using the selected Source, Length, and Multiplier:
Basis = SMA(Source, Length)
Band width = Multiplier × StDev(Source, Length)
Upper/Lower = Basis ± Width
This remains the “live” (non-forecast) structure on the chart.
⚪ Trend & Volatility Slope Estimation
To project forward, the indicator measures directional drift and volatility drift using linear regression differences:
Basis slope from the Bollinger basis
StDev slope from the Bollinger deviation
ATR slope for ATR-based projection mode
These slopes drive the forecast bands forward, reflecting the market’s recent directional and volatility regime.
⚪ Projection Engine (Forecast Bands)
At the last bar, the indicator draws projected basis, upper, and lower lines out to Forecast Bars. The projected basis can be:
Trend (straight linear projection)
Curved (ease-in/out transition toward projected endpoints)
Smoothed (extra smoothing on projected basis/width)
⚪ Price Path Projection + Optional Random Walk
In addition to projecting the bands, the script can draw a price forecast path made of a small number of zigzag swings.
Each swing targets a point offset from the projected basis by a multiple of the projected half-width (“width units”).
Decay gradually reduces swing size as the forecast deepens.
The Optional Random Walk Blend adds a deterministic drift component to the zigzag path. It’s not true randomness; it’s a stable pseudo-random sequence, so the drawing doesn’t jump around on refresh, while still adding “natural” variation.
⚪ Rejection Signals
Signals are based on failed attempts to break a band:
Bear Signal (Down): price tries to push above the upper band, then falls back inside, while still closing above the basis.
Bull Signal (Up): price tries to push below the lower band, then returns back inside, while still closing below the basis.
█ How to Use
⚪ Forward Support/Resistance Corridors
Treat the projected upper/lower bands as a future volatility envelope, not a guarantee:
The upper projection ≈ is likely a resistance level if the regime persists
The lower projection ≈ is likely a support level if the regime persists
Best used for trade planning, targets, and “where price could travel” under similar conditions.
⚪ Regime Read: Trend + Volatility
The projection shape is informative:
Rising basis + expanding width → trend with increasing volatility (needs wider stops / more caution)
Flat basis + compressing width → contraction regime (often precedes expansion)
⚪ Signals for Mean-Reversion / Failed Breakouts
The rejection markers are useful for fade-style setups:
A Down signal near/after upper-band failure can imply rotation back toward the basis.
An Up signal near/after lower-band failure can imply snap-back toward the basis.
With MA filtering enabled, signals are constrained to align with the broader bias, helping reduce chop-driven noise.

Quantum Darvas BoxesQuantum Darvas Boxes - The Modern Evolution
The original Darvas Box methodology, conceived by Nicolas Darvas in the 1950s, revolutionized breakout trading by identifying consolidation phases as "boxes." However, modern markets move with algorithmic speed and fractal volatility that often trigger false breakouts. Quantum Darvas Boxes were designed not as a nostalgic tribute, but as a computational upgrade. By anchoring boxes to volatility-adjusted boundaries rather than raw highs/lows, and introducing adaptive stability mechanisms, this indicator transforms a classic discretionary tool into a systematic, noise-filtered engine.
Description & Improvements
Quantum Darvas Boxes solve the three fatal flaws of the original: false breakouts, arbitrary box sizing, and lack of confirmation. Instead of drawing boxes at exact recent highs/lows, it creates volatility-buffered boundaries using ATR, ensuring breakouts require meaningful momentum. The boxes remain anchored until a confirmed close beyond the buffer occurs, preventing the constant redrawing that plagued traditional Darvas implementations. Built-in volume and RSI filters add discretionary-grade confirmation to pure price action. Visually, the system presents as a stable, semi-transparent blue zone between red (resistance) and lime (support) lines, with clear triangle signals appearing only on validated breakouts.
How It's Based on Darvas
The core philosophy remains true to Darvas' 1950s methodology:
Identify Consolidation: Finds price ranges where the market consolidates
Draw Box: Creates a "box" representing the accumulation zone
Breakout Trading: Enters when price breaks out of the box with momentum
Volatility-Adjusted Boundaries
Original: Boxes at exact highs/lows → prone to false breakouts
QDB: Boxes set at High - (ATR × Multiplier) and Low + (ATR × Multiplier)
→ Breakouts require meaningful momentum, not just price tags
→ Adapts to different volatility regimes
Signal Logic:
Long: Close above box top, previous close was inside box
Short: Close below box bottom, previous close was inside box
Ideal Settings:
For daily charts, use lookback=13 and mult=2.4.
For intraday (1H-4H), reduce to lookback=8 and mult=1.8. Enable volume filter in trending markets and RSI filter in ranging conditions.
Trade Execution: Enter long on the green triangle below the bar following a close above the red top line; enter short on the red triangle above the bar after a close below the lime bottom line. The background glow provides immediate visual confirmation.
Risk Management: Set stops at the opposite box boundary. The volatility multiplier inherently calculates a risk buffer—larger multipliers create wider, higher-conviction boxes; smaller multipliers produce more frequent, sensitive signals. This system excels in trending markets and provides clear exit/reversal points, transforming Darvas's original speculation into a quantified, repeatable edge.
VWAP Flow ParmezanThe "Official Bank Flow VWAP" is a comprehensive trading suite designed for institutional Forex traders.
This indicator solves the problem of chart clutter by combining two critical components of liquidity: Price (Value) and Time (Sessions). It is specifically optimized for EUR/USD and GBP/USD on intraday timeframes (M5, M15), helping you identify high-probability setups where "Fair Value" meets "Volatility."
Key Features
1. Multi-Timeframe VWAP Hierarchy Unlike standard indicators, this tool visualizes the interaction between three distinct timeframes:
Daily VWAP (Dynamic Color): Your primary trend filter. Green when Bullish (Price > VWAP), Red when Bearish (Price < VWAP).
Weekly VWAP (Orange Dots): Represents the medium-term balance. Acts as a magnet for mean reversion mid-week.
Monthly VWAP (Purple Line): The institutional "line in the sand." Major support/resistance level.
2. Standard Deviation Bands (Market Balance) The indicator plots SD1 and SD2 bands around the Daily VWAP:
Inner Zone (SD1): Represents the "Fair Value" area.
Outer Bands (SD2): Represents overbought/oversold conditions. Useful for identifying mean reversion plays back to the center.
3. Official Exchange Sessions (Time) Forget confusing "killzones." This tool highlights the Official Open times for major exchanges, adjusted for Daylight Savings via New York time:
London Open (08:00 LDN): The start of European volume.
New York Open (08:00 NY): The injection of US liquidity.
London Close/Fix: The daily overlap close, often marking trend reversals.
Note: Sessions are visualized with non-intrusive black "shadow" backgrounds to keep your chart clean.
4. "Ghost" Levels (Previous VWAP) A unique feature that plots the closing VWAP level of the previous day. Institutional algorithms often target these "untested" levels as Take Profit targets or liquidity pools.
How to Use
Trend Following: If Price is above the Daily VWAP (Green) during the London Open, look for Long entries targeting the SD1/SD2 upper bands.
Mean Reversion: If Price hits the SD2 Band while far away from the Weekly VWAP, look for a reversal back to the mean.
Confluence: The strongest signals occur when price touches a key VWAP level (e.g., Weekly VWAP) specifically during the highlighted Session Start times.
Settings
Timezone: Defaults to America/New_York to automatically handle DST shifts for London/NY opens.
Visuals: Fully customizable colors and transparency. Default is set to a "Dark Mode" friendly professional palette.
Shannon Entropy (Quant Lab)🟦 Shannon Entropy = The level of "order" or "chaos" in the market.
This indicator gives you the answer to the question:
"Is the market currently orderly and understandable, or is it random and chaotic?"
No other classical indicator can accurately show this.
The value of Entropy is between 0 and 1:
⸻
🟩 1) Entropy = 0.0 – 0.3 → Structured, orderly, readable market
During these periods, the price:
• A trend forms • Ranges work clearly • Patterns (head & shoulders, flag, triangle) form smoothly • Systems like Z-score, VWAP, EMA work very cleanly • Data for modeling (algorithmic strategies, ML) is high quality
Think of this region as follows:
The market "works according to rules," it's easy to trade.
⸻
🟧 2) Entropy = 0.3 – 0.7 → Normal behavior region
In this region:
• Neither too orderly nor too chaotic
• Most systems operate at an average rate • We can say the market is healthy
It is tradable; however, the conditions are not perfect.
⸻
🟥 3) Entropy = 0.7 – 1.0 → Chaos / Noise / Manipulation region
This is the MOST DANGEROUS REGION OF THE MARKET.
What happens?
• Prices jump randomly left and right. • Wicks increase excessively. • Fake breakouts multiply. • The win rate of strategies decreases. • Trend-following systems constantly generate "false signals." • Even mean-reversion systems are caught off guard. • ML models learn junk data during these periods. • Generally, news, liquidation cascades, and manipulation periods increase entropy.
This period perfectly illustrates:
"There is no logic in this market right now — it's moving randomly."
Therefore, it's a period where you need to be very careful:
Reduce position size. • Trade less. • Avoid unnecessary risks. • Tighten stop losses. • Don't use leverage.
This is your risk alert panel.
⸻
🔥 The real superpower Entropy gives you: Trend selection and system selection
Entropy → Determines which strategy you will use.
✔ Low Entropy → Trend following or mean-reversion that works like a toy
✔ High Entropy → Even opening a trade is risky
✔ Normal Entropy → Most strategies work
Building a strategy without this information is unprofessional.
⸻
🧠 Critical summary (you can even copy and paste it as a description in TradingView):
Low entropy → market is structured, patterns & trends are reliable
High entropy → market is chaotic, noisy, unpredictable; avoid aggressive trading
Entropy tells you if your strategy has a high chance or low chance of working
⸻
🟦 Signals Entropy gives in practice:
🔹 Entropy is falling →
The market is stabilizing → A major trend or strong move is approaching.
🔹 Entropy is rising →
The market is becoming chaotic → Sudden spike, a period of trading in prayer mode, extra risk.
🔹 Low Entropy + VR > 1 + High ER → FULL TREND MARKET
A true “trend paradise” period.
🔹 Low Entropy + VR < 1 + High FDI → RANGE MARKET
A paradise of mean reversion.
🔹 High Entropy + High VoV → DANGEROUS PERIOD
Big explosions, news, and liquidations happen here.
⸻
⭐ IN SHORT:
Entropy = an indicator of how randomly the market behaves.
• 0–0.3 → regular, good, reliable market
• 0.3–0.7 → normal market
• 0.7–1.0 → chaotic, dangerous market
It tells you at a glance whether you should trade during this period or not.

ONEUSDT Mean-Reversion Strategy | 74.68% Win Rate | 417% Net Profit
This is a long-only mean-reversion strategy designed specifically for ONEUSDT on the 1-hour timeframe. The core logic identifies oversold conditions following sharp declines and enters positions when selling pressure exhausts, capturing the subsequent recovery bounce.
Backtested Period: June 2019 – December 2025 (~6 years)
Performance Summary
| Metric | Value |
|--------|-------|
| Net Profit | +417.68% |
| Win Rate | 74.68% |
| Profit Factor | 4.019 |
| Total Trades | 237 |
| Sharpe Ratio | 0.364 |
| Sortino Ratio | 1.917 |
| Max Drawdown | 51.08% |
| Avg Win | +3.14% |
| Avg Loss | -2.30% |
| Buy & Hold Return | -80.44% |
Strategy Logic :
Entry Conditions (Long Only):
The strategy seeks confluence of three conditions that identify exhausted selling:
1. Prior Move Filter:*The price change from 5 bars ago to 3 bars ago must be ≥ -7% (ensures we're not entering during freefall)
2. Current Move Filter: The price change over the last 2 bars must be ≤ 0% (confirms momentum is stalling or reversing)
3. Three-Bar Decline: The price change from 5 bars ago to 3 bars ago must be ≤ -5% (confirms a significant recent drop occurred)
When all three conditions align, the strategy identifies a potential reversal point where sellers are exhausted.
Exit Conditions:
- Primary Exit: Close above the previous bar's high while the open of the previous bar is at or below the close from 9 bars ago (profit-taking on strength)
- Trailing Stop: 11x ATR trailing stop that locks in profits as price rises
Risk Management
- Position Sizing:Fixed position based on account equity divided by entry price
- Trailing Stop:11× ATR (14-period) provides wide enough room for crypto volatility while protecting gains
- Pyramiding:Up to 4 orders allowed (can scale into winning positions)
- **Commission:** 0.1% per trade (realistic exchange fees included)
Important Disclaimers
⚠️ This is NOT financial advice.
- Past performance does not guarantee future results
- Backtest results may contain look-ahead bias or curve-fitting
- Real trading involves slippage, liquidity issues, and execution delays
- This strategy is optimized for ONEUSDT specifically — results may differ on other pairs

Elliott Wave Full Fractal System v2.0Elliott Wave Full Fractal System v2.0 – Q.C. FINAL (Guaranteed R/R)
Elliott Wave Full Fractal System is a multi-timeframe wave engine that automatically labels Elliott impulses and ABC corrections, then builds a rule-based, ATR-driven risk/reward framework around the “W3–W4–W5” leg.
“Guaranteed R/R” here means every order is placed with a predefined stop-loss and take-profit that respect a minimum Reward:Risk ratio – it does not mean guaranteed profits.
Core Idea
This strategy turns a full fractal Elliott Wave labelling engine into a systematic trading model.
It scans fractal pivots on three wave degrees (Primary, Intermediate, Minor) to detect 5-wave impulses and ABC corrections.
A separate “Trading Degree” pivot stream, filtered by a 200-EMA trend filter and ATR-based dynamic pivots, is then used to find W4 pullback entries with a minimum, user-defined Reward:Risk ratio.
Default Properties & Risk Assumptions
The backtest uses realistic but conservative defaults:
// Default properties used for backtesting
strategy(
"Elliott Wave Full Fractal System - Q.C. FINAL (Guaranteed R/R)",
overlay = true,
initial_capital = 10000, // realistic account size
default_qty_type = strategy.percent_of_equity,
default_qty_value = 1, // 1% risk per trade
commission_type = strategy.commission.cash_per_contract,
commission_value = 0.005, // example stock commission
slippage = 0 // see notes below
)
Account size: 10,000 (can be changed to match your own account).
Position sizing: 1% of equity per trade to keep risk per idea sustainable and aligned with TradingView’s recommendations.
Commission: 0.005 cash per contract/share as a realistic example for stock trading.
Slippage: set to 0 in code for clarity of “pure logic” backtesting. Real-life trading will experience slippage, so users should adjust this according to their market and broker.
Always re-run the backtest after changing any of these values, and avoid using high risk fractions (5–10%+) as that is rarely sustainable.
1. Full Fractal Wave Engine
The script builds and maintains four pivot streams using ATR-adaptive fractals:
Primary Degree (Macro Trend):
Captures the large swings that define the major trend. Labels ①–⑤ and ⒶⒷⒸ using blue “Circle” labels and thicker lines.
Intermediate Degree (Trading Degree):
Captures the medium swings (swing-trading horizon). Uses teal labels ( (1)…(5), (A)(B)(C) ).
Minor Degree (Micro Structure):
Tracks short-term swings inside the larger waves. Uses red roman numerals (i…v, a b c).
ABC Corrections (Optional):
When enabled, the engine tries to detect standard A–B–C corrective structures that follow a completed 5-wave impulse and plots them with dashed lines.
Each degree uses a dynamic pivot lookback that expands when ATR is above its EMA, so the system naturally requires “stronger” pivots in volatile environments and reacts faster in quiet conditions.
2. Theory Rules & Strict Mode
Normal Mode: More permissive detection. Designed to show more wave structures for educational / exploratory use.
Strict Mode: Enforces key Elliott constraints:
Wave 3 not shorter than waves 1 and 5.
No invalid W4 overlap with W1 (for standard impulses).
ABC Logic: After a confirmed bullish impulse, the script expects a down-up-down corrective pattern (A,B,C). After a bearish impulse, it looks for up-down-up.
3. Trend Filter & Pivots
EMA Trend Filter: A configurable EMA (default 200) is used as a non-wave trend filter.
Price above EMA → Only long setups are considered.
Price below EMA → Only short setups are considered.
ATR-Adaptive Pivots: The pivot engine scales its left/right bars based on current ATR vs ATR EMA, making waves and trading pivots more robust in volatile regimes.
4. Dynamic Risk Management (Guaranteed R/R Engine)
The trading engine is designed around risk, not just pattern recognition:
ATR-Based Stop:
Stop-loss is placed at:
Entry ± ATR × Multiplier (user-configurable, default 2.0).
This anchors risk to current volatility.
Minimum Reward:Risk Ratio:
For each setup, the script:
Computes the distance from entry to stop (risk).
Projects a take-profit target at risk × min_rr_ratio away from entry.
Only accepts the setup if risk is positive and the required R:R ratio is achievable.
Result: Every order is created with both TP and SL at a predefined distance, so each trade starts with a known, minimum Reward:Risk profile by design.
“Guaranteed R/R” refers exclusively to this order placement logic (TP/SL geometry), not to win-rate or profitability.
5. Trading Logic – W3–W4–W5 Pattern
The Trading pivot stream (separate from visual wave degrees) looks for a simple but powerful pattern:
Bullish structure:
Sequence of pivots forms a higher-high / higher-low pattern.
Price is above the EMA trend filter.
A strong “W3” leg is confirmed with structure rules (optionally stricter in Strict mode).
Entry (Long – W4 Pullback):
The “height” of W3 is measured.
Entry is placed at a configurable Fibonacci pullback (default 50%) inside that leg.
ATR-based stop is placed below entry.
Take-profit is projected to satisfy min Reward:Risk.
Bearish structure:
Mirrored logic (lower highs/lows, price below EMA, W3 down, W4 retrace up, W5 continuation down).
Once a valid setup is found, the script draws a colored box around the entry zone and a label describing the type of signal (“LONG SETUP” or “SHORT SETUP”) with the suggested limit price.
6. Orders & Execution
Entry Orders: The strategy uses limit orders at the computed W4 level (“Sniper Long” or “Sniper Short”).
Exits: A single strategy.exit() is attached to each entry with:
Take-profit at the projected minimum R:R target.
Stop-loss at ATR-based level.
One Trade at a Time: New setups are only used when there is no open position (strategy.opentrades == 0) to keep the logic clear and risk contained.

8. How to Use This Strategy
Attach the strategy to your chart
Choose your market (stocks, indices, FX, crypto, futures, etc.) and timeframe (for example 1h, 4h, or Daily). Then add the strategy to the chart from your Scripts list.
Start with the default settings
Leave all inputs on their defaults first. This lets you see the “intended” behaviour and the exact properties used for the published backtest (account size, 1% risk, commission, etc.).
Study the wave map
Zoom in and out and look at the three wave degrees:
Blue circles → Primary degree (big picture trend).
Teal (1)…(5) → Intermediate degree (swing structure).
Red i…v → Minor degree (micro waves).
Use this to understand how the engine is interpreting the Elliott structure on your symbol.
Watch for valid setups
Look for the coloured boxes and labels:
Green box + “LONG SETUP” label → potential W4 pullback long in an uptrend.
Red box + “SHORT SETUP” label → potential W4 pullback short in a downtrend.
Only trades in the direction of the EMA trend filter are allowed by the strategy.
Check the Reward:Risk of each idea
For each setup, inspect:
Limit entry price.
ATR-based stop level.
Projected take-profit level.
Make sure the minimum Reward:Risk ratio matches your own rules before you consider trading it.
Backtest and evaluate
Open the Strategy Tester:
Verify you have a decent sample size (ideally 100+ trades).
Check drawdowns, average trade, win-rate and R:R distribution.
Change markets and timeframes to see where the logic behaves best.
Adapt to your own risk profile
If you plan to use it live:
Set Initial Capital to your real account size.
Adjust default_qty_value to a risk level you are comfortable with (often 0.5–2% per trade).
Set commission and slippage to realistic broker values.
Re-run the backtest after every major change.
Use as a framework, not a signal machine
Treat this as a structured Elliott/R:R framework:
Filter signals by higher-timeframe trend, major S/R, volume, or fundamentals.
Optionally hide some wave degrees or ABC labels if you want a cleaner chart.
Combine the system’s structure with your own trade management and discretion.
Best Practices & Limitations
This is an approximate Elliott Wave engine based on fractal pivots. It does not replace a full discretionary Elliott analysis.
All wave counts are algorithmic and can differ from a manual analyst’s interpretation.
Like any backtest, results depend heavily on:
Symbol and timeframe.
Sample size (more trades are better).
Realistic commission/slippage settings.
The 0-slippage default is chosen only to show the “raw logic”. In real markets, slippage can significantly impact performance.
No strategy wins all the time. Losing streaks and drawdowns will still occur even with a strict R:R framework.

Multi-Distribution Volume Profile (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Multi-Distribution Volume Profile (Zeiierman) is a flexible, structure-first volume profile tool that lets you reshape how volume is distributed across price, from classic uniform profiles to advanced statistical curves like Gaussian, Lognormal, Student-t, and more.
Instead of forcing every market into a single "one-size-fits-all" profile, this tool lets you model how volume is likely concentrated inside each bar (body vs wicks, midpoint, tails, center bias, right-skew, heavy tails, etc.) and then stacks that behavior across a whole lookback window to build a rich, multi-distribution map of traded activity.
On top of that, it overlays a dynamic Center Band (value area) and a fade/gradient model that can color each price row by volume, hits, recency, volatility, reversals, or even liquidity voids, turning a plain profile into a multi-dimensional context map.
Highlights
Choose from multiple Profile Build Modes , including uniform, body-only, wick-only, midpoint/close/open, center-weighted, and a suite of probability-style distributions (Gaussian, Lognormal, Weibull, Student-t, etc.)
Flexible anchor layout: draw the profile on Right/Left (horizontal) or Bottom/Top (vertical) to fit any chart layout
Value Area / Center Band computed from volume quantiles around the POC.
Gradient-based Fade Metrics: volume, price hits, freshness (time decay), volatility impact, dwell time, reversal density, compression, and liquidity voids
Separate bullish vs bearish volume at each price row for directional structure insights
█ How It Works
⚪ Profile Construction
The script scans a user-defined Bars Included window and finds the full high–low span of that zone. It then divides this range into a user-controlled number of Price Levels (rows).
For each historical bar within the window:
It measures the candle’s price range, body, and wicks.
It assigns volume to rows according to the selected Profile Build Mode, for example:
* Range Uniform – volume spread evenly across the full high–low range.
* Range Body Only / Range Wick Only – concentrate volume inside the body or wicks only.
* Midpoint / Close / Open Only – allocate volume entirely into one price row (pinpoint modeling).
HL2 / Body Center Weighted – center weights around the middle of the range/body.
Recent-Weighted Volume – amplify newer bars using exponential time decay.
Volume Squared (Hard) – aggressively boost bars with large volume.
Up Bars Only / Down Bars Only – filter volume to only bullish or bearish bars.
For more advanced shapes, the script uses continuous distributions across the bar’s span:
Linear, Triangular, Exponential to High
Cosine Centered, PERT
Gaussian, Lognormal, Cauchy, Laplace
Pareto, Weibull, Logistic, Gumbel
Gamma, Beta, Chi-Square, Student-t, F-Shape
Each distribution produces a weight for each row within the bar’s range, normalized so the total volume remains consistent, but the shape of where that volume lands changes.
⚪ POC & Center Band (Value Area)
Once all rows are accumulated:
The row with the highest total volume becomes the Point of Control (POC)
The script computes cumulative volume and finds the band that wraps a user-defined Center of Profile % (e.g., 68%) around the center of distribution.
This range is displayed as a central band, often treated like a value area where price has spent the most “effort” trading.
⚪ Gradient Fade Engine
Each row also gets a fade metric, chosen in Fade Metric:
Volume – opacity based on relative volume.
Price Hits – how frequently that row was touched.
Blended (Vol+Hits) – average of volume & hits.
Freshness – emphasizes recent activity, controlled by Decay.
Volatility Impact – rows that saw larger ranges contribute more.
Dwell Time – where price “camped” the longest.
Reversal Density – where direction changes cluster.
Compression – tight-range compression zones.
Liquidity Void – inverse of volume (thin liquidity zones).
When Apply Gradient is enabled, the row’s bullish/bearish colors are tinted from faint to strong based on this chosen metric, effectively turning the profile into a heatmap of your chosen structural property.
█ How to Use
⚪ Explore Different Distribution Assumptions
Switch between multiple Profile Build Modes to see how your assumptions about intrabar volume affect structure:
Use Range Uniform for classical profile reading.
Deploy Gaussian, Logistic, or Cosine shapes to emphasize central clustering.
Try Pareto, Lognormal, or F-Shape to focus on tail / extremal activity.
Use Recent-Weighted Volume to prioritize the most recent structural behavior.
This is especially useful for traders who want to test how different modeling assumptions change perceived value areas and levels of interest.
⚪ Identify Value, Acceptance & Rejection Zones
Use the POC and Center of Profile (%) band to distinguish:
High-acceptance zones – wide central band, thick rows, strong gradient → fair value areas
Rejection zones & tails – thin extremes, low dwell time, high volatility or reversal density
These regions can be used as:
Targets and origin zones for mean reversion
Context for breakout validation (leaving value)
Bias reference for intraday rotations or swing rotations
⚪ Read Directional Structure Within the Profile
Because each row is split into bullish vs bearish contributions, you can visually read:
Where buyers dominated a price region (large bullish slice)
Where sellers absorbed or defended (large bearish slice)
Combining this with Fade Metrics like Reversal Density, Dwell Time, or Freshness turns the profile into a structural order-flow map, without needing raw tick-by-tick volume data.
⚪ Use Fade Metrics for Contextual Heatmaps
Each Fade Metric can be used for a different analytical lens:
Volume / Blended – emphasize where volume and activity are concentrated.
Freshness – highlight the most recently active zones that still matter.
Volatility Impact & Compression – spot areas of explosive moves vs coiled ranges.
Reversal Density – locate micro turning points and battle zones.
Liquidity Void – visually pop out thin regions that may act as speedways or magnets.
█ Settings
Profile Build Mode – Selects how each bar’s volume is distributed across its price range (uniform, body/wick, midpoint/close/open, center-weighted, or statistical distribution families).
Bars Included – Number of bars used to build the profile from the current bar backward.
Price Levels – Vertical resolution of the profile: more levels = smoother but heavier.
Anchor Side – Where the profile is drawn on the chart: Right, Left, Bottom, or Top.
Offset (bars) – Horizontal offset from the last bar to the profile when using Right/Left modes.
Apply Gradient – Toggles the fade/heatmap coloring based on the selected metric.
Fade Metric – Chooses the property driving row opacity (Volume, Hits, Freshness, Volatility Impact, Dwell Time, Reversal Density, Compression, Liquidity Void).
Decay – Time-decay factor for Freshness (values close to 1 keep older activity relevant for longer).
Profile Thickness – Relative thickness of the profile along the time axis, as a % of the lookback window.
Center of Profile (%) – Volume percentage used to define the central band (value area) around the POC.

IDLP – Intraday Daily Levels Pro [FXSMARTLAB]🔥 IDLP – Intraday Daily Levels Pro
IDLP – Intraday Daily Levels Pro is a precision toolkit for intraday traders who rely on objective daily structure instead of repainting indicators and noisy signals.
Every level plotted by IDLP is derived from one simple rule:
Today’s trading decisions must be based on completed market data only.
That means:
✅ No use of the current day’s unfinished data for levels
✅ No lookahead
✅ No hidden repaint behavior
IDLP reconstructs the previous trading day from the intraday chart and then projects that structure forward onto the current session, giving you a stable, institutional-style intraday map.
🧱 1. Previous Daily Levels (Core Structure)
IDLP extracts and displays the full previous daily structure, which you can toggle on/off individually via the inputs:
Previous Daily High (PDH)
Previous Daily Low (PDL)
Previous Daily Open
Previous Daily Close,
Previous Daily Mid (50% of the range)
Previous Daily Q1 (25% of the range)
Previous Daily Q3 (75% of the range)
All of these come from the day that just closed and are then locked for the entire current session.
What these levels tell you:
PDH / PDL – true extremes of yesterday’s price action (liquidity zones, breakout/reversal points).
Previous Daily Open / Close – how the market positioned itself between session start and end
Mid (50%) – equilibrium level of the previous day’s auction.
Q1 / Q3 (25% / 75%) internal structure of the previous day’s range, dividing it into four equal zones and helping you see if price is trading in the lower, middle, or upper quarter of yesterday’s range.
All these levels are non-repaint: once the day is completed, they are fixed and never change when you scroll, replay, or backtest.
🎯 2. Previous Day Pivot System (P, S1, S2, R1, R2)
IDLP includes a classic floor-trader pivot grid, but critically:
It is calculated only from the previous day’s high, low, and close.
So for the current session, the following are fixed:
Pivot P – central reference level of the previous day.
Support 1 (S1) and Support 2 (S2)
Resistance 1 (R1) and Resistance 2 (R2)
These levels are widely used by institutional desks and algos to structure:
mean-reversion plays, breakout zones, intraday targets, and risk placement.
Everything in this section is non-repaint because it only uses the previous day’s fully closed OHLC.
📏 3. 1-Day ADR Bands Around Previous Daily Open
Instead of a multi-day ADR, IDLP uses a pure 1-Day ADR logic:
ADR = Range of the previous day
ADR = PDH − PDL
From that, IDLP builds two clean bands centered around the previous daily Open:
ADR Upper Band = Previous Day Open + (ADR × Multiplier)
ADR Lower Band = Previous Day Open − (ADR × Multiplier)
The multiplier is user-controlled in the inputs:
ADR Multiplier (default: 0.8)
This lets you choose how “tight” or “wide” you want the ADR envelope to be around the previous day’s open.
Typical use cases:
Identify realistic intraday extension targets, Spot exhaustion moves beyond ADR bands, Frame reversals after reaching volatility extremes, Align trades with or against volatility expansion
Again, since ADR is calculated only from the completed previous day, these bands are totally non-repaint during the current session.
🔒 4. True Non-Repaint Architecture
The internal logic of IDLP is built to guarantee non-repaint behavior:
It reconstructs each day using time("D") and tracks:
dayOpen, dayHigh, dayLow, dayClose for the current day
prevDayOpen, prevDayHigh, prevDayLow, prevDayClose for the previous day
At the moment a new day starts:
The “current day” gets “frozen” into prevDay*
These prevDay* values then drive: Previous Daily Levels, Pivots, ADR.
During the current day:
All these “previous day” values stay fixed, no matter what happens.
They do not move in real time, they do not shift in replay.
This means:
What you see in the past is exactly what you would have seen live.
No fake backtests.
No illusion of perfection from repainting behavior.
🎯 5. Designed For Intraday Traders
IDLP – Intraday Daily Levels Pro is made for:
- Day traders and scalpers
- Index and FX traders
- Prop firm challenge trading
- Traders using ICT/SMC-style levels, liquidity, and range logic
- Anyone who wants a clean, institutional-style daily framework without noise
You get:
Previous Day OHLC
Mid / Q1 / Q3 of the previous range
Previous-Day Pivots (P, S1, S2, R1, R2)
1-Day ADR Bands around Previous Day Open
All calculated only from closed data, updated once per day, and then locked.
Macro Timing Window Signal ⏱️ Macro Timing Window Signal – Check/X Indicator
This indicator displays a green check mark ✔️ or red X ✖️ in the top-right corner of the chart based on a repeating macro time cycle that divides every hour into active and inactive windows.

Appears from xx:16 → xx:44 (mid-hour cooldown window).
• Optional flash signal at the exact macro flip points (xx:45, xx:00, xx:15) to highlight transitions.
• Supports sound alerts so you never miss the start or end of a macro window.
This tool is designed for traders who incorporate macro-driven time cycles, liquidity sessions, or algorithmic delivery windows into their strategy.
The display is fixed on-screen, clean, and unobtrusive, ensuring instant recognition of the current macro state without cluttering the chart.
UT Bot Pro Max (Maks Edition)Script v2.0
UT Bot Pro Max is an advanced, high-precision evolution of the well-known UT Bot indicator.
This version is fully rebuilt into a complete decision-making system that evaluates trend structure, volatility conditions, momentum signals, and entry quality.
It is designed for traders who want clear, structured signals supported by objective filters and transparent reasoning.
1. Core Engine: ATR-Based Trailing Logic
At the heart of the system is an ATR dynamic trailing stop.
It is responsible for:
detecting trend reversals
identifying breakout conditions
switching between long and short bias
determining signal strength
Unlike simple ATR lines, this engine adapts to momentum expansion and contraction, forming the backbone for every signal.
2. Three-Tier Signal Structure
Each signal is classified into one of three levels based on the number of confirmations:
Strong Signals
ATR breakout
trend filter (price relative to EMA200)
RSI filter (oversold/overbought context)
This is the highest-quality confirmation and is suitable for full-size entries.
Medium Signals
ATR breakout
trend filter
(no RSI filter)
This represents a valid trend continuation but with slightly reduced confirmation.
Weak Signals
ATR breakout only
(no trend filter, no RSI filter)
This is an early-stage impulse which can evolve into a stronger move.
The multi-level classification allows the trader to size positions rationally and avoid over-committing during uncertain market conditions.
3. Move-Since-Entry Tracking
When a new long or short position is detected, the indicator records the entry price and automatically tracks the percentage movement from that point.
This offers:
real-time monitoring of open trade performance
objective context for managing exits
clear visualization of progress since entry
4. Smart State-Change Alerts
Instead of simple “BUY” or “SELL” messages, the script sends highly structured alerts whenever the internal state changes.
Each alert includes:
the symbol and timeframe
signal direction and strength
recommended position size based on signal tier
ATR values
RSI value and its state
trend context (bullish, bearish, neutral)
distance from ATR trailing stop
movement since entry
previous state reference (optional)
This makes it ideal for automated systems, algorithmic routing, or Telegram-based signal delivery.
5. Professional On-Chart Status Table
The indicator displays a refined information panel containing:
current signal state (Strong / Medium / Weak / Hold)
ATR signal direction
trend filter result
RSI value and condition
distance to trailing stop (percentage)
current position (long / short / flat)
entry recommendation based on signal strength
ATR value and additional context in expanded mode
There is also a compact mode optimized specifically for mobile trading.
6. Optional Heikin Ashi Mode
The indicator can operate using Heikin Ashi close values for traders who prefer smooth, noise-reduced visualizations.
The internal logic is recalculated automatically.
7. Trend-Colored Candles
An optional feature allows candle coloring based on price position relative to the ATR stop line, highlighting bullish and bearish phases directly on the chart.
What This Indicator Provides
Accurate, context-aware entry signals
Scalable position sizing through multi-tier structure
Objective trend confirmation
Breakout detection with volatility adaptation
Continuous tracking of open position performance
Detailed real-time explanations through alerts
A complete visual dashboard consolidating all key metrics
UT Bot Pro Max (Maks Edition) is built as a practical tool for daily trading.
It is suitable for scalping, day trading, swing trading, automated alerts, and mobile workflows.
LiquidityPulse Higher Timeframe Consecutive Candle Run LevelsLiquidityPulse Higher Timeframe Consecutive Candle Run Levels
Research suggests that financial markets can alternate between trend-persistence and mean-reversion regimes, particularly at short (intraday) or very long timeframes. Extended directional moves, whether prolonged intraday rallies or sell-offs, also carry a statistically higher chance of retracing or reversing (Safari & Schmidhuber, 2025). In addition, studies examining support and resistance behaviour show that swing highs or lows formed after strong directional moves may act as structurally and psychologically important price levels, where subsequent price interactions have an increased likelihood of stalling or bouncing rather than passing through directly (Chung & Bellotti, 2021). By highlighting higher-timeframe candle runs and marking their extremal levels, this indicator aims to display areas where directional momentum previously stopped, providing contextual "watch levels" that traders may incorporate into their broader analysis.
How this information is used in the indicator:
When a sequence of consecutive higher-timeframe candles prints in the same direction, the indicator highlights the lower-timeframe chart with a green or red background, depending on whether the higher-timeframe run was bullish or bearish. The highest high (for a bull run) or lowest low (for a bear run) of that sequence forms a recent extremum, and this value is plotted as a swing-high or swing-low level. These levels appear only after the required number of consecutive higher-timeframe candles (set by the user) have closed, and they continue updating as long as the higher-timeframe streak remains intact. A level "freezes" and stops updating only when an opposite-colour higher-timeframe candle closes (e.g., a red candle ending a bull run, or a green candle ending a bear run). Once frozen, the level remains fixed to preserve that structural information for future analysis or retests. The number of past bull/bear levels displayed on the chart is also adjustable in the settings.
Why capture a level after a long directional run:
When price moves in one direction for several consecutive candles (e.g. 4, 5, or more), it reflects strong directional bias, often associated with momentum, liquidity imbalance, or liquidity grabs. Once that sequence breaks, the final level reached marks a point of exhaustion or structural resistance/support, where that bias failed to continue. These inflection points are often used by traders and trading algorithms to assess potential reversals, retests, or breakout setups. By freezing these levels once the run ends, the indicator creates a map of historically significant price zones, allowing traders to observe how price behaves around them over time.
Additional information displayed by the indicator:
Each detected run includes a label showing the run length (the number of consecutive higher-timeframe candles in the streak) along with the source timeframe used for detection. The indicator also displays an overstretch marker: this numerical value appears when the total size of the candle bodies within the run exceeds a user-defined multiple of the average higher-timeframe body size (default: 1.5x). This helps highlight runs that were unusually strong or extended relative to typical volatility. You can also enable alerts that trigger when this overstretch ratio exceeds a higher threshold.
Key Settings
Timeframe: Choose which HTF to analyse (e.g., 15m, 1h, 4h)
Minimum Candle Run Length: Define how many consecutive candles are needed to trigger a level (e.g., 4)
Overstretch Settings: Customize detection threshold and alert trigger (in multiples of average body size)
Background Tints: Enable/disable visual highlights for bull and bear runs
Display Capacity: Choose how many past bull/bear levels to show
How Traders Can Use This Indicator
Traders can:
-Watch levels for retests, reversals, breakouts, or consolidation
-Identify areas where price showed strong directional conviction
-Spot extended or aggressive moves based on overstretch detection
-Monitor how price reacts when retesting prior run levels
-Build confluence with your existing levels, zones, or indicators
Disclaimer
This tool does not reflect true order flow, liquidity, or institutional positioning. It is a visual aid that highlights specific candle behaviour patterns and does not produce predictive signals. All analysis is subject to interpretation, and past price behaviour does not imply future outcomes.

Luxy VWAP Magic - MTF Projection EngineThis indicator transforms the classic VWAP into a comprehensive trading system. Instead of switching between multiple indicators, you get everything in one place: multi-timeframe analysis, statistical bands, momentum detection, volume profiling, session tracking, and divergence signals.
What Makes This Different
Traditional VWAP indicators show a single line. This tool treats VWAP as a foundation for complete market analysis. The indicator automatically detects your asset type (stocks, crypto, forex, futures) and adjusts its behavior accordingly. Crypto traders get 24/7 session tracking. Stock traders get proper market hours handling. Everyone gets institutional-grade analytics.
Anchor Period Options
The anchor period determines when VWAP resets and recalculates. You have three categories of options:
Time-Based Anchors:
Session - Resets at market open. Best for intraday stock trading where you want fresh VWAP each day.
Day - Resets at midnight UTC. Standard option for most traders.
Week / Month / Quarter / Year - Longer reset periods for swing traders and position traders who want broader context.
Rolling Window Anchors:
Rolling 5D - A sliding 5-day window that never resets. Solves the Monday problem where weekly VWAP equals daily VWAP on first day of week.
Rolling 21D - Approximately one month of trading data in continuous calculation. Excellent for crypto and forex markets that trade 24/7 without clear session breaks.
Event-Based Anchors:
Dividends - Resets on ex-dividend dates. Track institutional cost basis from dividend events.
Splits - Resets on stock split dates. Useful for analyzing post-split trading behavior.
Earnings - Resets on earnings report dates. See where volume-weighted trading occurred since last quarterly report.
Standard Deviation Bands
Three sets of bands surround the main VWAP line:
Band 1 (Aqua) - Plus and minus one standard deviation. Approximately 68% of price action occurs within this range under normal distribution. Touches suggest minor extension.
Band 2 (Fuchsia) - Plus and minus two standard deviations. Only 5% of trading should occur outside this range statistically. Touches here indicate significant overextension and high probability of mean reversion.
Band 3 (Purple) - Plus and minus three standard deviations. Touches are rare (0.3% probability) and represent extreme conditions. Often marks climax moves or panic selling/buying.
Each band can be toggled independently. Most traders show Band 1 by default and add Band 2 and 3 for specific setups or volatile instruments.
Multi-Timeframe VWAP System
The MTF section plots previous period VWAPs as horizontal support and resistance levels:
Daily VWAP - Previous day's final VWAP value. Key intraday reference level.
Weekly VWAP - Previous week's final VWAP. Important for swing traders.
Monthly VWAP - Previous month's final VWAP. Institutional benchmark level.
Quarterly VWAP - Previous quarter's final VWAP. Major support/resistance for position traders.
Previous Day VWAP - Yesterday's closing VWAP specifically, separate from current daily calculation.
The Confluence Zone percentage setting determines how close multiple VWAPs must be to trigger a confluence alert. When two or more timeframe VWAPs converge within this threshold, you get a high-probability support/resistance zone.
Session VWAPs for Global Markets
For forex, crypto, and futures traders who operate in 24/7 markets, the indicator tracks three major global sessions:
Asia Session - UTC 21:00 to 08:00. Gold colored line. Typically lower volatility, range-bound action that sets overnight levels.
London Session - UTC 08:00 to 17:00. Orange colored line. Often determines daily direction with high volume European participation.
New York Session - UTC 13:00 to 22:00. Blue colored line. Highest volume session globally. Sharp directional moves common.
Previous session VWAP values display as horizontal lines when each session closes, acting as intraday support and resistance. The table shows which sessions are currently active with checkmarks.
On-Chart Labels and Signals
The indicator plots several types of labels directly on price action when significant events occur:
Volume Spike Labels
Fire when current bar volume exceeds configurable thresholds relative to both the previous bar and the 20-bar average. Default settings require 300% of previous bar AND 200% of average volume. Green labels indicate bullish candles. Red labels indicate bearish candles. These spikes often mark institutional entry points.
Momentum Shift Labels
Appear when VWAP acceleration changes direction. The Slowing label warns when an active trend loses steam, often preceding reversal. The Accelerating label confirms trend continuation or potential bottom during downtrends. Filters available to show only reversal signals in existing trends.
VWAP Squeeze Labels
Detect when standard deviation bands contract relative to ATR (Average True Range). Low volatility compression often precedes explosive breakout moves. When the squeeze fires (releases), a label appears with directional prediction based on VWAP slope.
Divergence Labels
Mark price/volume divergences using CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta) analysis:
Bullish divergence: Price makes lower low, but CVD makes higher low. Hidden accumulation despite price weakness.
Bearish divergence: Price makes higher high, but CVD makes lower high. Hidden distribution despite price strength.
Dynamic VWAP Coloring
The main VWAP line changes color based on its slope direction:
Green - VWAP is rising. Institutional buying pressure. Volume-weighted price increasing.
Red - VWAP is falling. Institutional selling pressure. Volume-weighted price decreasing.
Gray - VWAP is flat. Consolidation or balance between buyers and sellers.
This coloring can be disabled for a static blue line if you prefer cleaner visuals. The VWAP label next to the line shows the current trend direction and delta percentage.
Calculated Projection Cone
One of the most powerful features is the Calculated Projection Cone. Unlike traditional extrapolation methods that simply extend a trend line forward, this system analyzes what actually happened in similar market conditions throughout the chart's history.
How It Works:
The system classifies each bar into one of 27 unique market states:
Z-Score Level - LOW (oversold), MID (fair value), or HIGH (overbought) based on configurable thresholds
Trend Direction - DOWN, FLAT, or UP based on VWAP slope
Volume Profile - LOW (below 80%), NORMAL (80-150%), or HIGH (above 150%) relative volume
When you look at the current bar, the indicator:
1. Identifies the current market state (e.g., LOW Z-Score + UP Trend + HIGH Volume)
2. Searches through all historical bars on the chart that had the same state
3. Calculates what happened in those bars X bars later (where X is your projection horizon)
4. Shows you the probability of up/down and the average move size
Visual Elements:
Probability Cone - Colored green (bullish probability above 55%), red (bearish below 45%), or gold (neutral). The cone width represents the historical range of outcomes (roughly the 20th to 80th percentile).
Center Line - Shows the average expected price based on historical outcomes in similar conditions.
Probability Label - Displays direction probability and average move. Example: "67% UP (+0.8%)" means 67% of similar past cases moved up, averaging 0.8% gain.
Fallback System:
When the exact 27-state match has insufficient historical data:
First fallback: Uses Z-Score plus Trend only (9 broader states, ignoring volume)
Second fallback: Uses Z-Score only (3 states)
When fallback is active, confidence automatically adjusts
Settings:
Projection Horizon - How many bars forward to analyze outcomes (5, 10, 15, or 20 bars, default 10)
Lookback Period - Historical data window in days (30-252, default 60)
Minimum Samples - Cases needed before using fallback (5-30, default 10)

The Info Table - Your Trading Dashboard
The right side of your chart displays a compact table with up to twelve metrics.
Row-by-Row Breakdown:
Asset and Period - Shows what the indicator detected (US Stock, Crypto, Forex, etc.) and your selected anchor period. The detection happens automatically based on exchange data, so VWAP resets and calculations match your actual trading instrument.
Delta Percentage - How far current price sits from VWAP, expressed as a percentage. Positive means price trades above fair value. Negative means below. Large delta values (beyond 1-2%) often precede mean reversion moves. Day traders watch this for overextension.
Z-Score - Statistical deviation from VWAP measured in standard deviations. Unlike raw delta, Z-Score accounts for volatility. A 2% move in a volatile biotech stock differs from 2% in a stable utility. Z-Score normalizes this. Values beyond plus or minus two sigma occur only 5% of the time statistically.
Trend Direction - Whether VWAP itself is rising, falling, or flat. Rising VWAP means the volume-weighted average price is increasing, which indicates institutional accumulation. Falling VWAP suggests distribution. This differs from price trend since it weights by volume.
Momentum State - Is the trend accelerating or slowing down? This measures the rate of change in VWAP slope. When an uptrend shows slowing momentum, it often precedes reversal. Accelerating momentum in a downtrend can signal capitulation and potential bottom.
Relative Volume - Current bar volume compared to the 20-bar average, shown as percentage. Values above 150% indicate above-average activity. Spikes above 200-300% often mark institutional involvement. Low volume (below 80%) warns of potential fake moves.
MTF Bias - Four checkmarks or X marks showing whether price sits above or below Daily, Weekly, Monthly, and Quarterly VWAP. Four checkmarks means strong bullish alignment across all timeframes. Four X marks indicates bearish alignment. Mixed readings suggest consolidation or transition.
Band Probabilities - Historical statistics showing how often price touched each standard deviation band over your lookback period. This helps you understand if mean reversion or trend following works better for your specific instrument.
Session Status - Which global trading sessions are currently active (Asia, London, New York). Shows checkmarks for active sessions. Important for forex and crypto traders who need to know when major liquidity windows open and close.
Divergence State - Whether the indicator detects bullish or bearish divergence between price and cumulative volume delta. Bullish divergence occurs when price makes lower lows but buying pressure (CVD) makes higher lows, suggesting hidden accumulation.
Confidence Score - A weighted composite of all factors displayed as a progress bar and percentage. Combines MTF alignment, Z-Score, trend direction, volume delta, momentum, and relative volume into a single 0-100 score. Higher scores indicate stronger conviction setups.
Calculated Projection - When the Projection Cone is enabled, shows the historical probability of price direction and expected move. For example: "▲ 67% (+0.8%)" means in similar market states historically, price moved up 67% of the time with an average gain of 0.8%. The system analyzes 27 unique market states based on Z-Score, Trend, and Volume conditions.
Recommended Use Cases
Day Trading Stocks:
Use Session anchor with Band 1 visible. Watch for price returning to VWAP after morning move. Volume spikes near VWAP often mark institutional accumulation zones.
Swing Trading:
Use Weekly or Rolling 21D anchor. Enable MTF lines for Daily and Weekly levels. Trade pullbacks to these levels in direction of MTF bias.
Crypto and Forex:
Enable Session VWAPs. Use Rolling anchors to avoid artificial resets. Monitor session transitions for breakout opportunities.
Mean Reversion:
Focus on Z-Score reaching plus or minus two. Add Band 2 visibility. Combine with slowing momentum for highest probability reversals.
Trend Following:
Watch MTF bias alignment. Four checkmarks plus accelerating momentum plus high volume confirms trend continuation setups.
Projection Planning:
Enable the Calculated Projection to see what happened historically in similar market conditions. Use 5-10 bars for intraday setups, 15-20 bars for swing trade planning. Focus on high probability readings (above 60%) with HIGH confidence (30 or more samples). The cone shows the probable range of outcomes based on actual historical data. Combine with other factors like MTF alignment and volume for higher conviction setups.
Important Notes
The indicator does not repaint. MTF values use previous period's confirmed data.
Rolling VWAP works best on 15-minute timeframes and above due to bar lookback requirements.
Session VWAPs apply to global markets by default (forex, crypto, futures). Enable the all-assets option for stocks if desired.
Volume data for forex represents tick volume, not actual traded volume.
All alert conditions fire only on confirmed (closed) bars to prevent false signals.
The Calculated Projection updates each bar as market state changes. This is expected behavior. The projection shows probabilities based on similar past conditions, not a fixed prediction.
Q AND A
Q: Does this indicator repaint?
A: No. The main VWAP calculation uses standard TradingView VWAP methodology. Multi-timeframe values use previous period's confirmed data with appropriate lookahead settings. All alert signals require bar confirmation.
Q: Why does my Rolling VWAP look different on 1-minute versus 15-minute charts?
A: Rolling VWAP calculates across a fixed number of trading days. On very short timeframes, the bar lookback may hit TradingView limits. For best Rolling VWAP accuracy, use 15-minute or higher timeframes.
Q: Can I use this on any instrument?
A: Yes. The indicator automatically detects asset type and adjusts behavior. Stocks use standard market hours. Crypto uses 24/7 calculations. Forex uses tick volume. Everything adapts automatically.
Q: What does the Confidence Score actually measure?
A: The score combines six weighted factors: MTF alignment (25%), Z-Score position (20%), Trend direction (20%), CVD pressure (15%), Momentum state (10%), and Relative volume (10%). Higher scores indicate more factors aligned in one direction.
Q: Why are Session VWAPs not showing on my stock chart?
A: Session VWAPs apply to 24-hour markets by default (forex, crypto, futures). For stocks, enable the Use for All Assets option in Session VWAP settings.
Q: The Divergence labels appear delayed. Is this a bug?
A: Divergence detection requires pivot confirmation, which needs bars on both sides of the pivot point. The label appears at the actual pivot location (several bars back) once confirmed. This is intentional and prevents false signals.
Q: Can I change the band colors?
A: Yes. Each of the three bands has its own color input setting. You can customize Band 1, Band 2, and Band 3 colors to match your preferences. The defaults are Aqua, Fuchsia, and Purple. The main VWAP line color adapts dynamically based on slope direction or can be set to static blue.
Q: How do I set up alerts?
A: Right-click on the chart, select Add Alert, choose this indicator, and select your desired condition from the dropdown. All conditions include descriptive alert messages with relevant data.
Q: What is the Probability Engine lookback period?
A: This setting determines how many trading days the indicator analyzes to calculate band touch rates and mean reversion statistics. Default is 60 days (approximately 3 months). Longer periods provide more stable statistics but may miss recent behavior changes.
Q: Why do I see fewer labels than expected?
A: Signal labels (Volume, Momentum, Squeeze, Divergence) are limited to 5 most recent labels on the chart to keep it clean. When a new label appears, the oldest one is automatically removed. Additionally, momentum labels have several filters: check the slope multiplier setting (higher values require stronger trends) and the Only Reversal Signals option (when enabled, labels only appear for potential reversals, not trend confirmations).
Q: What is the Calculated Projection and how accurate is it?
A: The Calculated Projection analyzes what happened in past market conditions similar to the current state. It classifies each bar by Z-Score level, Trend direction, and Volume profile (27 unique states), then shows the historical probability of up vs down and the average move size. It is NOT a price prediction or guarantee. The probability shown is how often similar conditions led to up/down moves historically, not a future guarantee. Always use it as one input among many.
Q: Why does the Projection probability change?
A: The projection updates on each bar as market state changes. If Z-Score moves from LOW to MID, or trend shifts from UP to FLAT, the system looks up a different historical category. This is expected behavior. The projection shows what happened in similar past conditions to the current bar's state.
Q: The Projection shows LOW confidence. What does that mean?
A: Confidence levels indicate sample size: HIGH means 30 or more historical cases found, MEDIUM means 15-29 cases, LOW means fewer than 15 cases. When sample size is low, the system uses a fallback: first aggregating by Z-Score plus Trend only (ignoring volume), then by Z-Score only. LOW confidence means less statistical reliability, so weight other factors more heavily in your decision.
Q: Why does the cone sometimes show 50/50 probability?
A: A 50/50 reading means that in similar past market states, price moved up roughly half the time and down half the time. This indicates a neutral or balanced condition where historical patterns provide no directional edge. Consider waiting for a higher probability setup or using other analysis methods.

HTF Frequency Zone [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
HTF Frequency Zone highlights the dominant price level (Point of Control) and the full high–low expansion of any higher timeframe — Daily, Weekly, or Monthly. It captures the frequency of closes inside each HTF candle and plots the most traded “frequency zone”, allowing traders to easily see where price spent the most time and where buy/sell pressure accumulated.
This tool transforms each higher-timeframe bar into a fully visualized structure:
• Top = HTF high
• Bottom = HTF low
• Midline = HTF Frequency POC
• Color-coded zones = bullish or bearish bias
• Labels = counts of bullish and bearish candles inside the HTF range
It is designed to give traders an immediate understanding of high-timeframe balance, imbalance, and price attraction zones.
🔵 CONCEPTS
HTF Partitioning — Each Weekly/Daily/Monthly candle is converted into a dedicated zone with its own High, Low, and Frequency Point of Control.
Frequency POC (Most Touched Price) — The indicator divides the HTF range into 100 bins and counts how many times price closed near each level.
Dominant Zone — The level with the highest frequency becomes the HTF “Value Zone,” plotted as a bold central line.
Directional Bias —
• Bullish HTF zone
• Bearish HTF zone
Internal Candle Counting — Within each HTF period the indicator counts:
• Buy candles (close > open)
• Sell candles (close < open)
This reveals whether intraperiod flow was bullish or bearish.
HTF Structure Blocks — High, Low, and POC are connected across the entire higher-timeframe duration, showing the real shape of HTF balance.
🔵 FEATURES
Automatic HTF Zone Construction — Generates a complete price zone every time the selected timeframe flips (Daily / Weekly / Monthly).
Dynamic High & Low Extraction — The indicator scans every bar inside the HTF window to find true extremes of the range.
100-Level Frequency Scan — Each close within the period is assigned to a bin, creating a detailed distribution of price interaction.
HTF POC Highlighting — The most frequent price level is plotted with a bold red line for immediate visual clarity.
Bull/Bear Coloring —
• Green → Bullish HTF zone.
• Orange → Bearish HTF zone.
Zone Shading — High–Low range is filled with a semi-transparent color matching trend direction.
Buy/Sell Candle Counters — Printed at the top and bottom of each HTF block, showing how many internal candles were bullish or bearish.
POC Label — Displays frequency count (how many touches) at the POC level.
Adaptive Threshold Warning — If bars inside the HTF window are too few (<10), the indicator warns the trader to switch timeframe.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Higher-Timeframe Biasing — Read the zone color to determine if the HTF candle leaned bullish or bearish.
Value Zone Reactions — Price often reacts to the Frequency POC; use it as support/resistance or liquidity magnet.
Range Context — Identify when price is trading near HTF highs (breakout potential) or lows (reversal potential).
Momentum Evaluation — More bullish internal candles = internal buying pressure; more bearish = internal selling pressure.
Swing Trading — Use HTF zones as the “macro map,” then execute trades on lower timeframes aligned with the zone structure.
Liquidity Awareness — The HTF POC often aligns with algorithmic liquidity levels, making it a strong reaction point.
🔵 CONCLUSION
HTF Frequency Zone transforms raw higher-timeframe candles into detailed distribution zones that reveal true market behavior inside the HTF structure. By showing highs, lows, buying/selling activity, and the most interacted price level (Frequency POC), this tool becomes invaluable for traders who want to align executions with powerful HTF levels, liquidity magnets, and structural zones.
CISD by tncylyvCISD (Change in State of Delivery) by tncylyv
The CISD (Change in State of Delivery) indicator is a precision price action tool designed to help traders identify key reversal points based on ICT concepts. Unlike standard support and resistance indicators, this script tracks the specific algorithmic opening prices responsible for the current delivery state and highlights when that state has been invalidated.
🧠 What is CISD?
Change in State of Delivery refers to the moment price shifts from a Buy Program to a Sell Program (or vice versa).
• Bearish CISD (-CISD): Occurs when price closes below the opening price of the up-candle sequence that created the most recent High.
• Bullish CISD (+CISD): Occurs when price closes above the opening price of the down-candle sequence that created the most recent Low.
This indicator automates the identification of these levels, tracking the "Active" reference price in real-time and marking historical reversals.
🚀 Key Features
1. Continuous Active Level Tracking:
o The indicator plots a continuous, stepped line (The "Active CISD") that follows the market structure. As the market expands (makes new highs or lows), the line updates to the new valid reference point.
o This allows you to see the current invalidation level at a glance without cluttering the chart with old lines.
2. Triggered Reversal Lines:
o When a candle closes beyond the Active CISD level, a "Triggered" line is drawn to mark the exact price and location of the reversal.
o These lines serve as excellent historical references for potential Order Blocks or Breakers later in time.
3. Smart Filtering:
o You can choose to display Both Bullish and Bearish setups, or filter to see Bullish Only or Bearish Only. This is ideal for traders who have a specific daily bias and want to remove noise from the chart.
4. Clean & Customizable:
o Fully customizable colors for Bullish and Bearish events.
o Options to toggle Labels, adjust Line Width, and change Line Styles (Solid, Dashed, Dotted).
o "No Continuation" Logic: This version focuses purely on major reversals (Change in State) rather than minor pullbacks, keeping your chart clean.
⚙️ Settings Guide
• Show Active CISD Level: Toggles the continuous stepped line representing the current threshold for a reversal.
• Triggered CISD Display: Choose between Both, Bullish Only, Bearish Only, or None. This controls the historical lines left behind after a reversal occurs.
• Visual Settings: Adjust line width, label sizes, and font styles to match your chart aesthetic.
• Colors: Customize the Shrek Mode (Bullish) and Blood Bath (Bearish) colors.

Volume Threshold Levels - Crypto LidyaVolume Threshold Levels – Crypto Lidya
Understanding volume behavior is one of the most effective ways to detect trend changes, manipulation candles, aggressive entries, and institutional activity.
Volume Threshold Levels (VTL) not only displays raw volume but also calculates dynamic volume thresholds (2x – 3x – 4x) based on the moving average, allowing you to identify statistically meaningful volume anomalies with precision.
📌 1. Volume Columns
The indicator plots each bar’s volume using traditional column-style visualization.
Green: Bullish candle
Red: Bearish candle
Gray: Neutral candle
This helps traders clearly understand the relationship between price and volume.
📌 2. Average Volume Area
VTL offers two types of moving averages for volume:
SMA (Simple Moving Average)
EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
The average volume is drawn as a soft yellow area across the chart.
This area acts as the baseline for normal volume levels.
📌 3. Dynamic Threshold Lines (2x / 3x / 4x)
The script calculates and displays multipliers of the average volume:
2x Average
3x Average
4x Average
These levels appear as bright yellow lines.
They are extremely useful for identifying breakouts, traps, and aggressive institutional entries.
📌 4. Volume Spike Detection (Alerts)
VTL identifies upward crossovers where volume breaks above key levels:
1x Volume Signal
2x Volume Signal
3x Volume Signal
4x Volume Signal
These can be used directly as TradingView alerts.
This allows you to automate detection of high-impact volume spikes.
📌 5. Use Cases
The indicator performs exceptionally well in:
Breakout confirmation
Liquidity sweep analysis
Detecting manipulation candles
Combining with OB, FVG, or other SMC structures
Scalping and low-timeframe aggressive volume interpretation
Algorithmic filters for volume-based strategies
📌 6. Summary
VTL delivers:
✔ Dynamic average volume baseline
✔ Clear 2x–3x–4x volume thresholds
✔ Accurate detection of upside volume explosions
✔ A strong tool for traders who rely on volume confirmation
Completely open-source and ready to be extended.
PDH/PDL Sweep & Rejection - sudoPDH/PDL Sweep + Rejection
This indicator identifies classic liquidity sweeps of the previous day's high or low, then confirms whether price rejected that level with force. It is built to highlight moments when the market takes liquidity and immediately snaps back in the opposite direction, a behavior often linked to failed breakouts, engineered stops, or clean reversals. The tool marks these events directly on the chart so you can see them without manually watching the daily levels.
What it detects
The indicator focuses on two events:
PDH sweep and rejection
Price breaks above the previous day's high, overshoots the level by a meaningful amount, and then closes back below the high.
PDL sweep and rejection
Price breaks below the previous day's low, overshoots, and then closes back above the low.
These are structural liquidity events, not random wicks. The script checks for enough overshoot and strong bar range to confirm it was a genuine stop grab rather than noise.
How it works
The indicator evaluates each bar using the following logic:
1. Previous day levels
It pulls yesterday's high and low directly from the daily timeframe. These act as the PDH and PDL reference points for intraday trading.
2. Overshoot measurement
After breaking the level, price must push far enough beyond it to qualify as a sweep. Instead of using arbitrary pips, the required overshoot is scaled relative to ATR. This keeps the logic stable across different assets and volatility conditions.
3. Range confirmation
The bar must be larger than normal compared to ATR. This ensures the sweep happened with momentum and not because of small, choppy price movement.
4. Rejection close
A valid signal only prints if price closes back inside the previous day's range.
For a PDH sweep, the bar must close below PDH.
For a PDL sweep, the bar must close above PDL.
This confirms a failed breakout and a rejection.
What gets placed on the chart
Red downward triangle above the bar: Previous Day High sweep and rejection
Lime upward triangle below the bar: Previous Day Low sweep and rejection
The markers appear exactly on the bar where the sweep and rejection occurred.
How traders can use this
Identify potential reversals
Sweeps often occur when algorithms target liquidity pools. When followed by a strong rejection, the market may be preparing for a reversal or rotation.
Avoid chasing breakouts
A clear sweep warns that a breakout attempt failed. This can prevent traders from entering at the worst possible location.
Time entries at extremes
The markers help you see where the market grabbed stops and immediately turned. These areas can become high quality entry zones in both trend continuation and countertrend setups.
Support liquidity based models
The indicator aligns naturally with trading frameworks that consider liquidity, displacement, failed breaks, and microstructure shifts.
Add confidence to confluence-based setups
Combine sweeps with displacement, FVGs, or higher timeframe levels to refine entry timing.
Why this indicator is helpful
It automates a pattern that traders often identify manually. Sweeps are easy to miss in fast markets, and this tool eliminates the need to constantly monitor daily levels. By marking only the events that show overshoot plus rejection plus significant range, it filters out the weak or false signals and leaves only meaningful liquidity events.
Displacement Pulse Markers - sudoThis indicator is designed to highlight sudden and meaningful bursts of price movement. These bursts are called displacement pulses. A pulse appears when price expands with force, closes near the extreme of its own bar, and breaks through a recent structural level. The indicator places small circles above or below the candle to signal these moments so that traders can quickly spot abnormal movement and potential shifts in market intent.
How it works
The indicator evaluates each bar for three conditions:
Range expansion relative to volatility
The bar must be larger than normal. It compares the bar range to ATR and requires that range to exceed a multiple of ATR. When this condition is met, the bar is considered a large or forceful bar.
Close location within the bar
The bar has to close near its own high or low. A close near the top suggests strong buying force. A close near the bottom suggests strong selling force. The user can adjust what percentage qualifies as near the top or bottom.
Break of recent structure
The bar must break a recent pivot level. For bullish pulses, the high of the bar must exceed the highest high of the past N bars. For bearish pulses, the low must break the lowest low of the past N bars. This confirms that the move did not merely expand but actually displaced prior structure.
When all conditions align
A bullish displacement pulse is marked with a small aqua circle below the bar.
A bearish displacement pulse is marked with a fuchsia circle above the bar.
The result is a clean on chart visualization of where price produced meaningful displacement.
How traders can use this
Spot abnormal momentum
Pulses can highlight areas where price behaves with more force than usual. These events often appear around news, liquidity sweeps, or algorithmic shifts.
Identify possible regime changes
A pulse that breaks structure while closing near the extreme may signal a transition from a ranging environment to a trending one. It does not predict direction but flags where displacement actually occurred.
Support narrative building
When combined with levels, zones, or other frameworks, pulses can confirm whether the market had enough strength to break through an area with conviction.
Filter trades or refine entries
Some traders may choose to trade in the direction of recent pulses during trending conditions. Others may only enter a trade after a pulse confirms that the market has shifted away from compression.
Track where the market is imbalanced
A pulse visually marks whether buyers or sellers were able to generate strong initiative movement. These points often become useful reference zones for continuation or rejection analysis.
Why this indicator is useful
It reduces complex logic into simple visual markers. Instead of scanning bar by bar for structural breaks, volatility expansions, and close strength, the indicator does this automatically and highlights only the bars that meet all criteria. This keeps the chart clean while still providing precision about where displacement actually occurred.
