Quantura - Supply & Demand Zone DetectionIntroduction
“Quantura – Supply & Demand Zone Detection” is an advanced indicator designed to automatically detect and visualize institutional supply and demand zones, as well as breaker blocks, directly on the chart. The tool helps traders identify key areas of market imbalance and potential reversal or continuation zones, based on price structure, volume, and ATR dynamics.
Originality & Value
This indicator provides a unique and adaptive method of zone detection that goes beyond simple pivot or candle-based logic. It merges multiple layers of confirmation—volume sensitivity, ATR filters, and swing structure—while dynamically tracking how zones evolve as the market progresses. Unlike traditional supply and demand indicators, this script also detects and plots Breaker Zones when previous imbalances are violated, giving traders an extra layer of market context.
The key values of this tool include:
Automated detection of high-probability supply and demand zones.
Integration of both volume and ATR filters for precision and adaptability.
Dynamic zone merging and updating based on price evolution.
Identification of breaker blocks (invalidated zones) to visualize market structure shifts.
Optional bullish and bearish trade signals when zones are retested.
Clear, visually optimized plotting for efficient chart interpretation.
Functionality & Core Logic
The indicator continuously scans recent price data for swing highs/lows and combines them with optional volume and ATR conditions to validate potential zones.
Demand Zones are formed when price action indicates accumulation or a strong bullish rejection from a low area.
Supply Zones are created when distribution or strong bearish rejection occurs near local highs.
Breaker Blocks appear when existing zones are invalidated by price, helping traders visualize potential market structure shifts.
Bullish and bearish signals appear when price re-enters an active zone or breaks through a breaker block.
Parameters & Customization
Demand Zones / Supply Zones: Enable or disable each individually.
Breaker Zones: Activate breaker block detection for invalidated zones.
Volume Filter: Optional filter to only confirm zones when volume exceeds its long-term average by a user-defined multiplier.
ATR Filter: Optional filter for volatility confirmation, ensuring zones form under strong momentum conditions.
Swing Length: Controls the number of bars used to detect structural pivots.
Sensitivity Controls: Adjustable ATR and volume multipliers to fine-tune detection responsiveness.
Signals: Toggle for on-chart bullish (▲) and bearish (▼) signal plotting when price interacts with zones.
Color Customization: User-defined bullish and bearish colors for both standard and breaker zones.
Core Calculations
Zones are detected using pivot highs and lows with a defined lookback and lookahead period.
Additional filters apply if ATR and volume are enabled, requiring conditions like “ATR > average * multiplier” and “Volume > average * multiplier.”
Detected zones are merged if overlapping, keeping the chart clean and logical.
When price breaks through a zone, the original box is closed, and a new breaker zone is plotted automatically.
Bullish and bearish markers appear when zones are retested from the opposite side.
Visualization & Display
Demand zones are shaded in semi-transparent bullish color (default: blue).
Supply zones are shaded in semi-transparent bearish color (default: red).
Breaker zones appear when previous imbalances are broken, helping to spot structural shifts.
Optional arrows (▲ / ▼) indicate potential buy or sell reactions on zone interaction.
Use Cases
Identify institutional areas of accumulation (demand) or distribution (supply).
Detect potential breakout traps and market structure shifts using breaker zones.
Combine with other tools such as volume profile, EMA, or liquidity indicators for deeper confirmation.
Observe retests and reactions of zones to anticipate possible reversals or continuations.
Apply multi-timeframe analysis to align higher timeframe zones with lower timeframe entries.
Limitations & Recommendations
The indicator does not predict future price movement; it highlights structural imbalances only.
Performance depends on chosen swing length and sensitivity—users should optimize parameters for each market.
Works best in volatile markets where supply and demand imbalances are clearly expressed.
Should be used as part of a broader trading framework, not as a standalone signal generator.
Markets & Timeframes
The “Quantura – Supply & Demand Zone Detection” indicator is suitable for all asset classes including cryptocurrencies, Forex, indices, commodities, and equities. It performs reliably across multiple timeframes, from intraday scalping to higher timeframe swing analysis.

Quantura - Trendchange ZonesIntroduction
“Quantura – Trendchange Zones” is an advanced technical indicator that identifies and visualizes potential market reversal zones using dynamic RSI-based logic. It highlights areas of overbought and oversold conditions, marking them as visual zones directly on the price chart, and generates corresponding bullish and bearish signals when the RSI exits these extremes. The tool helps traders anticipate possible trend change regions and confirm momentum shifts in a clean, intuitive way.
Originality & Value
Unlike traditional RSI indicators that only show a static oscillator, this tool transforms RSI behavior into on-chart visual zones that represent structural overbought and oversold phases. It converts RSI threshold breaches into price-based regions (boxes) and marks reversal signals at the moment of momentum change.
The indicator’s originality and usefulness come from its:
Direct visualization of RSI overbought and oversold areas as dynamic chart zones.
Automatic detection of potential reversal regions where momentum exhaustion is likely.
Integration of RSI-based signals and visual cues without requiring users to monitor the RSI window.
Adjustable sensitivity for RSI length and upper/lower levels.
Clear color-coded separation of bullish and bearish phases.
Functionality & Core Logic
The indicator continuously monitors RSI values relative to the user-defined thresholds.
When RSI moves above the upper level, an Overbought Zone is created and extends until RSI falls back below that threshold.
When RSI moves below the lower level, an Oversold Zone is generated and extends until RSI returns above that level.
When RSI exits one of these zones, a corresponding Trendchange Signal (▲ bullish or ▼ bearish) appears at the transition point.
Each zone dynamically adjusts its high and low levels during formation, representing the complete range of the exhaustion phase.
Parameters & Customization
RSI Length: Defines the sensitivity of RSI calculation. Shorter lengths make signals more responsive; longer lengths filter noise.
Upper Level / Lower Level: Set thresholds for overbought and oversold conditions (default 70 / 30).
Signals: Toggle on/off for displaying bullish (▲) and bearish (▼) reversal signals.
Zones: Toggle the visualization of shaded RSI-based zones.
Colors: Fully customizable bullish and bearish colors for both signals and zones.
Visualization & Display
Bullish reversal zones (oversold exits) are shaded using the chosen bullish color (default: blue).
Bearish reversal zones (overbought exits) are shaded using the chosen bearish color (default: red).
Each completed zone is outlined and filled with transparent shading for better clarity.
Reversal arrows (▲ for bullish, ▼ for bearish) are displayed at the bar where RSI exits the extreme level.
Clean overlay design ensures compatibility with any chart style or color scheme.
Use Cases
Identify overbought and oversold periods directly on the price chart without switching to the RSI window.
Anticipate potential market reversals or exhaustion points based on RSI momentum shifts.
Combine with trend indicators, moving averages, or volume tools for confirmation.
Apply across multiple timeframes to align short-term reversal signals with higher timeframe momentum.
Use zone width and duration to assess the strength and persistence of overbought/oversold conditions.
Limitations & Recommendations
The indicator is not a standalone trading system but a visual confirmation tool.
False signals may occur in strongly trending markets where RSI remains overextended.
Optimal RSI settings may differ between assets (e.g., crypto vs. equities).
Combining this indicator with additional trend or structure filters can enhance accuracy.
Markets & Timeframes
The “Quantura – Trendchange Zones” indicator works across all markets and timeframes, including cryptocurrencies, Forex, stocks, and commodities. It is suitable for both short-term scalping and long-term swing analysis.

Quantura - Liquidity Sweep & Run LevelsIntroduction
“Quantura – Liquidity Sweep & Run Levels” is a structural price-action indicator designed to automatically detect swing-based liquidity zones and visualize potential sweep and run events. It helps traders identify areas where liquidity has likely been taken (sweep) or released (run), improving precision in market structure analysis and timing of entries or exits.
Originality & Value
This tool translates institutional liquidity concepts into an automated visual framework. Instead of simply marking highs and lows, it dynamically monitors swing points, tracks their breaches, and identifies subsequent reactions. The indicator is built to highlight the liquidity dynamics that often precede reversals or continuations.
Its originality lies in:
Automatic identification and tracking of swing highs and lows.
Real-time detection of broken levels and liquidity sweeps.
Distinction between “Run” and “Sweep” modes for different market behaviors.

Quantura - Fair Value GapIntroduction
“Quantura – Fair Value Gap” is a precision-engineered institutional concept indicator designed to automatically identify, visualize, and manage Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) across any market or timeframe. It enables traders to observe price inefficiencies, potential liquidity voids, and retracement areas that often act as magnets for price rebalancing.
Originality & Value
Unlike many public FVG scripts that only highlight candle gaps, this indicator integrates dynamic filters and adaptive logic to determine the strength and reliability of each gap. It merges overlapping zones intelligently and optionally extends valid imbalances forward for ongoing reference.
Its value lies in:
Dynamic statistical filtering based on gap standard deviation.
Optional volume confirmation for high-confidence FVGs.
Automatic merging of overlapping or adjacent gaps for clean visualization.
Support for both bullish and bearish imbalances.
Signal alerts when gaps are filled or rebalanced by price.
Functionality & Core Logic
Detects Fair Value Gaps by comparing candle-to-candle price displacement.
Applies a Gap Filter (standard deviation-based) to qualify valid gaps.
Optionally validates gaps formed under significant volume conditions.
Draws color-coded boxes to mark bullish (discount) and bearish (premium) inefficiencies.
Monitors each FVG until price fills the gap, at which point the box is visually closed.
Provides optional signal markers (“▲” or “▼”) when rebalancing occurs.
Parameters & Customization
Gap Filter: Sets the minimum statistical deviation required for a valid FVG. Higher values detect fewer, stronger gaps.
Volume Filter: Toggles additional validation using relative volume strength.
Volume Sensitivity: Adjusts how much above-average volume must be present to confirm a gap.

Quantura - Average Intraday Candle VolumeIntroduction
“Quantura – Average Intraday Candle Volume” is a quantitative visualization tool that calculates and displays the average traded volume for each intraday time position based on a user-defined historical lookback period. It allows traders to analyze recurring intraday volume patterns, identify high-activity sessions, and detect liquidity shifts throughout the trading day.
Originality & Value
This indicator goes beyond standard volume averages by normalizing and aligning volume data according to the time of day. Instead of simply smoothing recent bars, it builds an intraday volume profile based on historical daily averages, enabling users to understand when during the day volume typically peaks or drops.
Its originality and usefulness come from:
Converting standard volume data into time-aligned intraday averages.
Visualization of historical intraday liquidity behavior, not just total daily volume.
Dynamic scaling using normalization and transparency to emphasize active and quiet periods.
Optional day-separator lines for precise intraday structure recognition.
Gradient-based coloring for better visual interpretation of volume intensity.
Functionality & Core Logic
The indicator divides each day into discrete intraday time positions (based on chart timeframe).
For each position, it stores and updates historical volume values across the selected number of days.
It calculates an average volume per time position by aggregating all stored values and dividing them by the number of valid days.
The result is plotted as a continuous histogram showing typical intraday volume distribution.
The bar colors and transparency dynamically reflect the relative intensity of volume at each point in the day.
Parameters & Customization
Number of Days for Averaging: Defines how many past days are included in the volume average calculation (default: 365).
UTC Offset: Allows synchronization of intraday cycles with local or exchange time zones.
Base Color: Sets the main color for plotted volume columns.
Color Mode: Choose between “Gradient” (transparency dynamically adjusts by intensity) or “Normal” (fixed opacity).
Day Line: Toggles dashed vertical lines marking the start of each trading day.
Visualization & Display
Volume is plotted as a series of histogram bars, each representing the average volume for a specific intraday time position.
A gradient color mode enhances readability by fading lower-intensity areas and highlighting high-volume regions.
Optional day-separator lines visually segment historical sessions for easy reference.
Works seamlessly across all chart timeframes that divide the 24-hour day into regular bar intervals.
Use Cases
Identify when trading activity typically peaks (e.g., session opens, news windows, or overlapping markets).
Compare current intraday volume to historical averages for early anomaly detection.
Enhance algorithmic or discretionary strategies that depend on volume-timing alignment.
Combine with volatility or price structure indicators to confirm market activity zones.
Evaluate session consistency across different time zones using the UTC offset parameter.
Limitations & Recommendations
The indicator requires intraday data (below 1D resolution) to function properly.
Volume behavior may vary across brokers and assets; adjust averaging period accordingly.
Does not predict price movement — it provides volume-based context for analysis.
Works best when combined with structure or momentum-based indicators.
Markets & Timeframes
Compatible with all intraday markets — including crypto, Forex, equities, and futures — and all intraday timeframes (from 1 minute to 4 hours). It is particularly valuable for analyzing assets with continuous 24-hour trading activity.

Turtles StrategyBorn from the 1980s "Turtle" experiment, this method of trading captures breakouts and places or closes trades with intrabar entries or exits and realized-equity risk controls.
How It Works
The strategy buys/sells on breakouts from recent highs/lows, using ATR for volatility-adjusted stops and sizing. It risks a fixed % (default 1%) of realized equity per trade—initial capital plus closed P&L, ignoring open positions for conservatism. Drawdown protection auto-reduces risk by 20% at 10% drops (up to three times), resetting only on full peak recovery. Single positions only, with 1-tick slippage simulated for realistic fills. Best for trending assets like forex,commodities, crypto, stocks. Backtest for optimal parameters.
Main Operations
The strategy works on any timeframe but it's meant to be used on daily charts.
Entry Signals:
Long: Buy-stop 1 tick above 20-bar high (default "Entry Period") when no position—enters intrabar on breakout.
Short: Sell-stop 1 tick below 20-bar low. OCA cancels opposites.
Size: (Realized equity × adjusted risk %) ÷ (2× ATR stop distance), scaled by point value.
Exit Signals:
Longs: Stop at tighter of (entry - 2× ATR) or (10-bar low - 1 tick trailing, default "Exit Period").
Shorts: Stop at tighter of (entry + 2× ATR) or (10-bar high + 1 tick trailing).
Locks profits in trends, exits fast on fades.
Risk Controls:
Tracks realized equity peak.
10% drawdown: Risk ×0.8; 20%/30%: Further ×0.8 (max 3x).
Full reset above peak—preserves capital in slumps.

MACD Remastered [CHE]MACD Remastered — Robust MACD with confirmed pivot-based divergence, optional signal bands, and ready-to-use alerts.
Summary
This indicator augments classic MACD with a robust, confirmed pivot-based divergence engine and an optional signal channel using Bollinger Bands. Divergence signals are only produced after a pivot is confirmed, which reduces noise from transient swings. A line-of-sight clearance check filters cases where the MACD histogram path contradicts the divergence, further cutting false flags. Histogram coloring clarifies momentum changes, while optional triangles project the same signals onto the main chart for quick context.
Motivation: Why this design?
Standard MACD divergence tools tend to fire early in volatile phases and flip during consolidation. The core idea here is to delay decision points until a pivot is confirmed and to validate the path between pivots. This addresses fake flips and improves signal credibility at the cost of some latency. Optional bands around the Signal line add context about compression and expansion without altering MACD’s core behavior.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline: Classical MACD (fast and slow moving averages, Signal line, histogram) with simple divergence checks.
Architecture differences:
Confirmed pivot logic with left and right bars.
Line-of-sight clearance test across the histogram path between pivots.
Optional Signal-line Bollinger Bands with configurable length and width.
Composite “Any Divergence” alert plus separate regular and hidden alerts.
Optional main-chart triangles using forced overlay for at-a-glance context.
Practical effect: Fewer early or contradictory divergence signals, clearer momentum context via histogram colors and a visible Signal channel during compression and expansion.
How it works (technical)
The MACD line derives from a fast and a slow moving average on a chosen source. The Signal line smooths the MACD line using a selected moving average type and length. The histogram is the difference between MACD and Signal and is colored by direction and acceleration.
Divergence uses confirmed pivots: a pivot forms only after a set number of bars on the right side, so the event is locked in. The engine retrieves the last two relevant pivots and checks price movement versus the MACD histogram movement to classify regular or hidden divergence. A line-of-sight clearance routine traverses the histogram path between the two pivots and rejects the signal if the path invalidates the directional relationship. When enabled, Bollinger Bands are plotted around the Signal line; width scales with standard deviation. Programmatic alerts fire only on confirmed bars. No higher-timeframe requests are used.
Parameter Guide
Oscillator MA Type — Sets fast and slow MA family for MACD. Default: EMA. Tip: EMA is more responsive; SMA is steadier.
Fast Length — Fast MA period. Default: 12. Trade-off: Shorter is quicker but noisier.
Slow Length — Slow MA period. Default: 26. Trade-off: Longer reduces noise but adds lag.
Source — Price input. Default: Close. Tip: Use a stable source for consistency.
Signal MA Type — Moving average family for Signal. Default: EMA.
Signal Length — Smoothing of MACD into Signal. Default: 9. Trade-off: Longer smooths more, reacts slower.
Calculate Divergence — Enables divergence engine. Default: True.
Enable Bollinger Bands on Signal — Adds bands around Signal. Default: False.
BB Length — Sampling window for bands. Default: 20. Active: Only when bands are enabled.
BB StdDev — Band width in standard deviations. Default: 2.0. Bounds: between about zero point zero zero one and fifty.
Pivot Left / Pivot Right — Bars to the left and right that define a confirmed pivot. Default: five and five. Trade-off: Larger values mean stronger but slower pivots.
Min / Max Bars Between Pivots — Valid window between two pivots. Default: five and sixty. Tip: Increase minimum to reduce micro-divergences.
Detect Hidden — Include hidden divergence. Default: True.
Draw Lines — Draw connector lines on the MACD pane. Default: True.
Alerts: Enable / Regular / Hidden / Frequency / Prefix — Control alert emission, categories, cadence, and label. Defaults: Enabled, both categories on, once per bar close, prefix “MACD RM”.
Reading & Interpretation
Histogram: Columns above zero reflect positive momentum; below zero reflect negative momentum. Color shifts indicate momentum increasing or decreasing within each side.
MACD and Signal: Crosses and distance indicate momentum shifts and strength. When bands are enabled, touches and departures hint at compression and expansion around the Signal.
Divergence: Solid green lines and labels indicate regular bullish; solid red indicate regular bearish. Dashed teal and dashed orange denote hidden bullish and hidden bearish. Triangles on the main chart mirror these events for quicker visibility.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Use histogram color transitions with a structure filter such as higher highs and higher lows for long bias, or lower highs and lower lows for short bias. Divergence against the prevailing structure suggests caution or partial exits.
Exits and risk: In a long, regular bearish divergence near resistance can justify scaling out or tightening stops. Hidden divergence in the trend direction can support continuation but should not replace risk controls.
Multi-asset / Multi-timeframe: Works across liquid futures, forex, indices, and large-cap equities. Start with defaults on four-hour and daily; shorten lengths on intraday only when liquidity is strong.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint and confirmation: Signals are anchored only after the right-side pivot bars complete; alerts trigger on confirmed bars. This intentionally adds latency to reduce noise.
No higher-timeframe requests: No `security` calls are used; repaint risk is primarily tied to live bars before confirmation.
Resources: Declared `max_bars_back` is five hundred. The divergence path check iterates between pivots, bounded by the maximum bars parameter. Line objects may accumulate; limits are set for lines and labels.
Known limits: Latency at sharp turns, potential misses during fast single-bar reversals, and sensitivity to extremely choppy sessions if minimum gap between pivots is set too low.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tunin g
Starting point: EMA, twelve and twenty-six with Signal nine; pivots five and five; minimum five, maximum sixty; alerts on close; bands off.
Too many flips: Increase Signal length, raise pivot counts, and increase minimum bars between pivots. Consider disabling hidden divergence.
Too sluggish: Reduce pivot counts, lower Signal length, and enable bands to visualize early compression.
Cluttered chart: Keep lines off and rely on labels and main-chart triangles. Use the alert prefix to route events cleanly.

lower_tfLibrary "lower_tf"
█ OVERVIEW
This library is an enhanced (opinionated) version of the library originally developed by PineCoders contained in lower_tf .
It is a Pine Script® programming tool for advanced lower-timeframe selection and intra-bar analysis.
█ CONCEPTS
Lower Timeframe Analysis
Lower timeframe analysis refers to the analysis of price action and market microstructure using data from timeframes shorter than the current chart period. This technique allows traders and analysts to gain deeper insights into market dynamics, volume distribution, and the price movements occurring within each bar on the chart. In Pine Script®, the request.security_lower_tf() function allows this analysis by accessing intrabar data.
The library provides a comprehensive set of functions for accurate mapping of lower timeframes, dynamic precision control, and optimized historical coverage using request.security_lower_tf().
█ IMPROVEMENTS
The original library implemented ten precision levels. This enhanced version extends that to twelve levels, adding two ultra-high-precision options:
Coverage-Based Precision (Original 5 levels):
1. "Covering most chart bars (least precise)"
2. "Covering some chart bars (less precise)"
3. "Covering fewer chart bars (more precise)"
4. "Covering few chart bars (very precise)"
5. "Covering the least chart bars (most precise)"
Intrabar-Count-Based Precision (Expanded from 5 to 7 levels):
6. "~12 intrabars per chart bar"
7. "~24 intrabars per chart bar"
8. "~50 intrabars per chart bar"
9. "~100 intrabars per chart bar"
10. "~250 intrabars per chart bar"
11. "~500 intrabars per chart bar" ← NEW
12. "~1000 intrabars per chart bar" ← NEW
The key enhancements in this version include:
1. Extended Precision Range: Adds two ultra-high-precision levels (~500 and ~1000 intrabars) for advanced microstructure analysis requiring maximum granularity.
2. Market-Agnostic Implementation: Eliminates the distinction between crypto/forex and traditional markets, removing the mktFactor variable in favor of a unified, predictable approach across all asset classes.
3. Explicit Precision Mapping: Completely refactors the timeframe selection logic using native Pine Script® timeframe properties ( timeframe.isseconds , timeframe.isminutes , timeframe.isdaily , timeframe.isweekly , timeframe.ismonthly ) and explicit multiplier-based lookup tables. The original library used minute-based calculations with market-dependent conditionals that produced inconsistent results. This version provides deterministic, predictable mappings for every chart timeframe, ensuring consistent precision behavior regardless of asset type or market hours.
An example of the differences can be seen side-by-side in the chart below, where the original library is on the left and the enhanced version is on the right:

Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI) - Advanced SMC [PhenLabs]📊Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI)
Version: PineScript™v6
📌Description
The Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI) is an advanced Smart Money Concepts implementation that tracks institutional trading behavior through multi-dimensional analysis. This comprehensive indicator combines volume-validated Order Block detection, Fair Value Gap identification with auto-mitigation tracking, dynamic Liquidity Zone mapping, and Break of Structure/Change of Character detection into a unified system.
Unlike basic SMC indicators, SMFI employs a proprietary scoring algorithm that weighs five critical factors: Order Block strength (validated by volume), Fair Value Gap size and recency, proximity to Liquidity Zones, market structure alignment (BOS/CHoCH), and multi-timeframe confluence. This produces a Smart Money Score (0-100) where readings above 70 represent optimal institutional setup conditions.
🚀Points of Innovation
Volume-Validated Order Block Detection – Only displays Order Blocks when formation candle exceeds customizable volume multiplier (default 1.5x average), filtering weak zones and highlighting true institutional accumulation/distribution
Auto-Mitigation Tracking System – Fair Value Gaps and Order Blocks automatically update status when price mitigates them, with visual distinction between active and filled zones preventing trades on dead levels
Proprietary Smart Money Score Algorithm – Combines weighted factors (OB strength 25%, FVG proximity 20%, Liquidity 20%, Structure 20%, MTF 15%) into single 0-100 confidence rating updating in real-time
ATR-Based Adaptive Calculations – All distance measurements use 14-period Average True Range ensuring consistent function across any instrument, timeframe, or volatility regime without manual recalibration
Dynamic Age Filtering – Automatically removes liquidity levels and FVGs older than configurable thresholds preventing chart clutter while maintaining relevant levels
Multi-Timeframe Confluence Integration – Analyzes higher timeframe bias with customizable multipliers (2-10x) and incorporates HTF trend direction into Smart Money Score for institutional alignment
🔧Core Components
Order Block Engine – Detects institutional supply/demand zones using characteristic patterns (down-move-then-strong-up for bullish, up-move-then-strong-down for bearish) with minimum volume threshold validation, tracks mitigation when price closes through zones
Fair Value Gap Scanner – Identifies price imbalances where current candle's low/high leaves gap with two-candle-prior high/low, filters by minimum size percentage, monitors 50% fill for mitigation status
Liquidity Zone Mapper – Uses pivot high/low detection with configurable lookback to mark swing points where stop losses cluster, extends horizontal lines to visualize sweep targets, manages lifecycle through age-based removal
Market Structure Analyzer – Tracks pivot progression to identify trend through higher-highs/higher-lows (bullish) or lower-highs/lower-lows (bearish), detects Break of Structure and Change of Character for trend/reversal confirmation
Scoring Calculation Engine – Evaluates proximity to nearest Order Blocks using ATR-normalized distance, assesses FVG recency and distance, calculates liquidity proximity with age weighting, combines structure bias and MTF trend into smoothed final score
🔥Key Features
Customizable Display Limits – Control maximum Order Blocks (1-10), Liquidity Zones (1-10), and FVG age (10-200 bars) to maintain clean charts focused on most relevant institutional levels
Gradient Strength Visualization – All zones render with transparency-adjustable coloring where stronger/newer zones appear more solid and weaker/older zones fade progressively providing instant visual hierarchy
Educational Label System – Optional labels identify each zone type (Bullish OB, Bearish OB, Bullish FVG, Bearish FVG, BOS) with color-coded text helping traders learn SMC concepts through practical application
Real-Time Smart Money Score Dashboard – Top-right table displays current score (0-100) with color coding (green >70, yellow 30-70, red <30) plus trend arrow for at-a-glance confidence assessment
Comprehensive Alert Suite – Configurable notifications for Order Block formation, Fair Value Gap detection, Break of Structure events, Change of Character signals, and high Smart Money Score readings (>70)
Buy/Sell Signal Integration – Automatically plots triangle markers when Smart Money Score exceeds 70 with aligned market structure and fresh Order Block detection providing clear entry signals
🎨Visualization
Order Block Boxes – Shaded rectangles extend from formation bar spanning high-to-low of institutional candle, bullish zones in green, bearish in red, with customizable transparency (80-98%)
Fair Value Gap Zones – Rectangular areas marking imbalances, active FVGs display in bright colors with adjustable transparency, mitigated FVGs switch to gray preventing trades on filled zones
Liquidity Level Lines – Dashed horizontal lines extend from pivot creation points, swing highs in bearish color (short targets above), swing lows in bullish color (long targets below), opacity decreases with age
Structure Labels – "BOS" labels appear above/below price when Break of Structure confirmed, colored by direction (green bullish, red bearish), positioned at 1% beyond highs/lows for visibility
Educational Info Panel – Bottom-right table explains key terminology (OB, FVG, BOS, CHoCH) and score interpretation (>70 high probability) with semi-transparent background for readability

✅Best Use Cases
Order Block Retest Entries – After Break of Structure, wait for price retrace into fresh bullish Order Block with Smart Money Score >70, enter long on zone reaction targeting next liquidity level
Fair Value Gap Retracement Trading – When price creates FVG during strong move then retraces, enter as price approaches unfilled gap expecting institutional orders to continue trend
Liquidity Sweep Reversals – Monitor price approaching swing high/low liquidity zones against prevailing Smart Money Score trend, after stop hunt sweep watch for rejection into premium Order Block/FVG
Multi-Timeframe Confluence Setups – Identify alignment when current timeframe Order Block coincides with higher timeframe FVG plus MTF analysis showing matching trend bias
Break of Structure Continuations – After BOS confirms trend direction, trade pullbacks to nearest Order Block or FVG in direction of structure break using Smart Money Score >70 as entry filter
Change of Character Reversal Plays – When CHoCH detected indicating potential reversal, look for Smart Money Score pivot with opposing Order Block formation then enter on structure confirmation
⚠️Limitations
Lagging Pivot Calculations – Pivot-based features (Liquidity Zones, Market Structure) require bars to right of pivot for confirmation, meaning these elements identify levels retrospectively with delay equal to lookback period
Whipsaw in Ranging Markets – During choppy conditions, Order Blocks fail frequently and structure breaks produce false signals as Smart Money Score fluctuates without clear institutional bias, best used in trending markets
Volume Data Dependency – Order Block volume validation requires accurate volume data which may be incomplete on Forex pairs or limited in crypto exchange feeds
Subjectivity in Scoring Weights – Proprietary 25-20-20-20-15 weighting reflects general institutional behavior but may not optimize for specific instruments or market regimes, user cannot adjust factor weights
Visual Complexity on Lower Timeframes – Sub-hour timeframes generate excessive zones creating cluttered charts, requires aggressive display limit reduction and higher minimum thresholds
No Fundamental Integration – Indicator analyzes purely technical price action and volume without incorporating economic events, news catalysts, or fundamental shifts that override technical levels
💡What Makes This Unique
Unified SMC Ecosystem – Unlike indicators displaying Order Blocks OR FVGs OR Liquidity separately, SMFI combines all three institutional concepts plus market structure into single cohesive system
Proprietary Confidence Scoring – Rather than manual setup assessment, automated Smart Money Score quantifies probability by weighting five institutional dimensions into actionable 0-100 rating
Volume-Filtered Quality – Eliminates weak Order Blocks forming without institutional volume confirmation, ensuring displayed zones represent genuine accumulation/distribution
Adaptive Lifecycle Management – Automatically updates mitigation status and removes aged zones preventing trades on dead levels through continuous validity and age monitoring
Educational Integration – Built-in tooltips, labeled zones, and reference panel make indicator functional for both learning Smart Money Concepts and executing strategies
🔬How It Works
Order Block Detection – Scans for patterns where strong directional move follows counter-move creating last down-candle before rally (bullish OB) or last up-candle before sell-off (bearish OB), validates formations only when candle exhibits volume exceeding configurable multiple (default 1.5x) of 20-bar average volume
Fair Value Gap Identification – Compares current candle’s high/low against two-candles-prior low/high to detect price imbalances, calculates gap size as percentage of close and filters micro-gaps below minimum threshold (default 0.3%), monitors whether subsequent price fills 50% triggering mitigation status
Liquidity Zone Mapping – Employs pivot detection using configurable lookback (default 50 bars) to identify swing highs/lows where retail stops cluster, extends horizontal reference lines from pivot creation and applies age-based filtering to remove stale zones
Market Structure Analysis – Tracks pivot progression using structure-specific lookback (default 5 bars) to determine trend, confirms uptrend when new pivot high exceeds previous by minimum move percentage, detects Break of Structure when price breaks recent pivot level, flags Change of Character for potential reversals
Multi-Timeframe Confluence – When enabled, requests security data from higher timeframe (current TF × HTF multiplier, default 4x), compares HTF close against HTF 20-period MA to determine bias, contributes ±50 points to score ensuring alignment with institutional positioning on superior timeframe
Smart Money Score Calculation – Evaluates Order Block component via ATR-normalized distance producing max 100-point contribution weighted at 25%, assesses FVG factor through age penalty and distance at 20% weight, calculates Liquidity proximity at 20%, incorporates structure bias (±50-100 points) at 20%, adds MTF component at 15%, applies 3-period smoothing to reduce volatility
Visual Rendering and Lifecycle – Draws Order Block boxes, Fair Value Gap rectangles with color coding (green/red active, gray mitigated), extends liquidity dashed lines with fade-by-age opacity, plots BOS labels, displays Smart Money Score dashboard, continuously updates checking mitigation conditions and removing elements exceeding age/display limits
💡Note:
The Smart Money Flow Index combines multiple Smart Money Concepts into unified institutional order flow analysis. For optimal results, use the Smart Money Score as confluence filter rather than standalone entry signal – scores above 70 indicate high-probability setups but should be combined with risk management, higher timeframe bias, and market regime understanding.

Volume Cluster Support and Resistance Levels [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
This indicator identifies statistically significant support and resistance levels through volume cluster analysis, isolating price zones characterized by elevated trading activity and institutional participation. By quantifying areas where volume concentration exceeded historical norms, it reveals price levels with demonstrated supply-demand imbalances that exhibit persistent influence on subsequent price action. The methodology is asset-agnostic and timeframe-independent, applicable across equities, cryptocurrencies, forex, and commodities from intraday to weekly intervals.
🟢 Key Features
1. Support and Resistance Levels
The indicator scans historical price data to identify bars where volume exceeds a user-defined threshold multiplier relative to the rolling average. For each qualifying bar, a representative price is calculated using the average of high, low, and close. Proximate price levels within a specified percentage range are then aggregated into discrete clusters using volume-weighted averaging, eliminating redundant signals. Clusters are ranked by cumulative volume to determine statistical significance. Finally, the indicator plots horizontal levels at each cluster price: support levels (green) below current price indicate zones where historical buying pressure exceeded selling pressure, while resistance levels (red) above current price mark zones where sellers historically dominated. These levels represent areas of established liquidity and price discovery, where institutional order flow previously concentrated.
The Touch Count (T) metric quantifies historical price interaction frequency, while Total Volume (TV) measures aggregate trading activity at each level, providing objective criteria for assessing level strength and trade execution decisions.
2. Volume Histogram
A histogram appears below the price chart, displaying relative volume for each bar within the lookback period, with bar height scaled to the maximum volume observed. Green bars represent up-periods (close > open) indicating buying pressure, while red bars show down-periods (close < open) indicating selling pressure. This visualization helps you confirm the validity of support/resistance levels by seeing where volume actually spiked, identify accumulation/distribution patterns, and validate breakouts by checking if they occur on above-average volume.
3. Built-in Alerts
Automated alerts trigger when price crosses below support levels or breaks above resistance levels, allowing you to monitor multiple assets without constant chart-watching.
4. Customizable Color Schemes
The indicator provides four preset color configurations (Classic, Aqua, Cosmic, Custom) optimized for visual clarity across different charting environments. Each scheme maintains consistent color mapping for support and resistance zones across both level lines and volume histogram components. The Custom configuration permits full color specification to accommodate individual charting setups, ensuring optimal visual contrast for extended analysis sessions.
Classic:
Aqua:
Cosmic:
Custom:
🟢 Pro Tips
→ Trade entry optimization: Execute long positions at support levels with high touch counts or upon confirmed resistance breakouts accompanied by above-average volume
→ Risk parameter definition: Position stop-loss orders near identified support/resistance zones with statistical significance to minimize premature exits
→ Breakout validation: Require volume confirmation exceeding historical average when price penetrates resistance to filter false breakouts
→ Level strength assessment: Prioritize levels with higher touch counts and total volume metrics for enhanced probability trade setups
→ Multi-timeframe confluence: Synthesize support/resistance levels across multiple timeframes to identify high-conviction zones where daily support aligns with 4-hour resistance structures
Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel [BOSWaves]Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel - Adaptive Mean Reversion with Dynamic Equilibrium Geometry
Overview
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel introduces an advanced equilibrium-mapping framework that blends statistical mean reversion with adaptive trend geometry. Traditional channels and regression bands react linearly to volatility, often failing to capture the natural rhythm of price equilibrium. This model evolves that concept through a dynamic reversion engine, where equilibrium adapts continuously to volatility, trend slope, and structural bias - forming a living channel that bends, expands, and contracts in real time.
The result is a smooth, equilibrium-driven representation of market balance - not just trend direction. Instead of static bands or abrupt slope shifts, traders see fluid, volatility-aware motion that mirrors the natural pull-and-release dynamic of market behavior. Each channel visualizes the probabilistic boundaries of fair value, showing where price tends to revert and where it accelerates away from its statistical mean.
Unlike conventional envelopes or Bollinger-type constructs, the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck framework is volatility-reactive and equilibrium-sensitive, providing traders with a contextual map of where price is likely to stabilize, extend, or exhaust.
Theoretical Foundation
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel is inspired by stochastic mean-reversion processes - mathematical models used to describe systems that oscillate around a drifting equilibrium. While linear regression channels assume constant variance, financial markets operate under variable volatility and shifting equilibrium points. The OU process accounts for this by treating price as a mean-seeking motion governed by volatility and trend persistence.
At its core are three interacting components:
Equilibrium Mean (μ) : Represents the evolving balance point of price, adjusting to directional bias and volatility.
Reversion Rate (θ) : Defines how strongly price is pulled back toward equilibrium after deviation, capturing the self-correcting nature of market structure.
Volatility Coefficient (σ) : Controls how far and how quickly price can diverge from equilibrium before mean reversion pressure increases.
By embedding this stochastic model inside a volatility-adjusted framework, the system accurately scales across different markets and conditions - maintaining meaningful equilibrium geometry across crypto, forex, indices, or commodities. This design gives traders a mathematically grounded yet visually intuitive interpretation of dynamic balance in live market motion.
How It Works
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel is constructed through a structured multi-stage process that merges stochastic logic with volatility mechanics:
Equilibrium Estimation Core : The indicator begins by identifying the evolving mean using adaptive smoothing influenced by trend direction and volatility. This becomes the live centerline - the statistical anchor around which price naturally oscillates.
Volatility Normalization Layer : ATR or rolling deviation is used to calculate volatility intensity. The output scales the channel width dynamically, ensuring that boundaries reflect current variance rather than static thresholds.
Directional Bias Engine : EMA slope and trend confirmation logic determine whether equilibrium should tilt upward or downward. This creates asymmetrical channel motion that bends with the prevailing trend rather than staying horizontal.
Channel Boundary Construction : Upper and lower bands are plotted at volatility-proportional distances from the mean. These envelopes form the “statistical pressure zones” that indicate where mean reversion or acceleration may occur.
Signal and Lifecycle Control : Channel breaches, mean crossovers, and slope flips mark statistically significant events - exhaustion, continuation, or rebalancing. Older equilibrium zones gradually fade, ensuring a clear, context-aware visual field.
Through these layers, the channel forms a continuously updating equilibrium corridor that adapts in real time - breathing with the market’s volatility and rhythm.
Interpretation
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel reframes how traders interpret balance and momentum. Instead of viewing price as directional movement alone, it visualizes the constant tension between trending force and equilibrium pull.
Uptrend Phases : The equilibrium mean tilts upward, with price oscillating around or slightly above the midline. Upper band touches signal momentum extension; lower touches reflect healthy reversion.
Downtrend Phases : The mean slopes downward, with upper-band interactions marking resistance zones and lower bands acting as reversion boundaries.
Equilibrium Transitions : Flat mean sections indicate balance or distribution phases. Breaks from these neutral zones often precede directional expansion.
Overextension Events : When price closes beyond an outer boundary, it marks statistically significant disequilibrium - an early warning of exhaustion or volatility reset.
Visually, the OU channel translates volatility and equilibrium into structured geometry, giving traders a statistical lens on trend quality, reversion probability, and volatility stress points.
Strategy Integration
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel integrates seamlessly into both mean-reversion and trend-continuation systems:
Trend Alignment : Use mean slope direction to confirm higher-timeframe bias before entering continuation setups.
Reversion Entries : Target rejections from outer bands when supported by volume or divergence, capturing snapbacks toward equilibrium.
Volatility Breakout Mapping : Monitor boundary expansions to identify transition from compression to expansion phases.
Liquidity Zone Confirmation : Combine with BOS or order-block indicators to validate structural zones against equilibrium positioning.
Momentum Filtering : Align with oscillators or volume profiles to isolate equilibrium-based pullbacks with statistical context.
Technical Implementation Details
Core Engine : Stochastic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process for continuous mean recalibration.
Volatility Framework : ATR- and deviation-based scaling for dynamic channel expansion.
Directional Logic : EMA-slope driven bias for adaptive mean tilt.
Channel Composition : Independent upper and lower envelopes with smoothing and transparency control.
Signal Structure : Alerts for mean crossovers and boundary breaches.
Performance Profile : Lightweight, multi-timeframe compatible implementation optimized for real-time responsiveness.
Optimal Application Parameters
Timeframe Guidance:
1 - 5 min : Reactive equilibrium tracking for short-term scalping and microstructure analysis.
15 - 60 min : Medium-range setups for volatility-phase transitions and intraday structure.
4H - Daily : Macro equilibrium mapping for identifying exhaustion, distribution, or reaccumulation zones.
Suggested Configuration:
Mean Length : 20 - 50
Volatility Multiplier : 1.5× - 2.5×
Reversion Sensitivity : 0.4 - 0.8
Smoothing : 2 - 5
Parameter tuning should reflect asset liquidity, volatility, and desired reversion frequency.
Performance Characteristics
High Effectiveness:
Trending environments with cyclical pullbacks and volatility oscillation.
Markets exhibiting consistent equilibrium-return behavior (indices, majors, high-cap crypto).
Reduced Effectiveness:
Low-volatility consolidations with minimal variance.
Random walk markets lacking definable equilibrium anchors.
Integration Guidelines
Confluence Framework : Pair with BOSWaves structural tools or momentum oscillators for context validation.
Directional Control : Follow mean slope alignment for directional conviction before acting on channel extremes.
Risk Calibration : Use outer band violations for controlled contrarian entries or trailing stop management.
Multi-Timeframe Synergy : Derive macro equilibrium zones on higher timeframes and refine entries on lower levels.
Disclaimer
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Trend Channel is a professional-grade equilibrium and volatility framework. It is not predictive or profit-assured; performance depends on parameter calibration, volatility regime, and disciplined execution. BOSWaves recommends using it as part of a comprehensive analytical stack combining structure, liquidity, and momentum context.

Tristan's Tri-band StrategyTristan's Tri-band Strategy - Confluence Trading System
Strategy Overview:
This strategy combines three powerful technical indicators - RSI, Williams %R, and Bollinger Bands - into a single visual trading system. Instead of cluttering your chart with separate indicator panels, all signals are displayed directly on the price chart using color-coded gradient overlays, making it easy to spot high-probability trade setups at a glance.
How It Works:
The strategy identifies trading opportunities when multiple indicators align (confluence), suggesting strong momentum shifts:
📈 Long Entry Signals:
RSI drops to 30 or below (oversold)
Williams %R reaches -80 to -100 range (oversold)
Price touches or breaks below the lower Bollinger Band
All three conditions must align during your selected trading session
📉 Short Entry Signals:
RSI rises to 70 or above (overbought)
Williams %R reaches 0 to -20 range (overbought)
Price touches or breaks above the upper Bollinger Band
All three conditions must align during your selected trading session
Visual Indicators:
(faint) Green gradients below candles = Bullish oversold conditions (buying opportunity)
(faint) Red/Orange gradients above candles = Bearish overbought conditions (selling opportunity)
Stacked/brighter gradients = Multiple indicators confirming the same signal (higher probability) will stack and show brighter / less faint
Blue Bollinger Bands = Volatility boundaries and mean reversion zones
Exit Strategy:
Long trades exit when price reaches the upper Bollinger Band OR RSI becomes overbought (≥70)
Short trades exit when price reaches the lower Bollinger Band OR RSI becomes oversold (≤30)
Key Features:
✅ Session Filters - Trade only during NY (9:30 AM-4 PM), London (3 AM-11:30 AM), or Asia (7 PM-1 AM EST) sessions
✅ No Repainting - Signals are confirmed on candle close for realistic backtesting and live trading
✅ Customizable Parameters - Adjust RSI levels, BB standard deviations, Williams %R periods, and gradient visibility
✅ Visual Clarity - See all three indicators at once without switching between panels
✅ Built-in Alerts - Get notified when entry and exit conditions are met
How to Use Effectively:
Choose Your Trading Session - For day trading US stocks, enable only the NY session. For forex or 24-hour markets, select the sessions that match your schedule.
Look for Gradient Stacking - The brightest, most visible gradients occur when both RSI and Williams %R signal together. These are your highest-probability setups.
Confirm with Price Action - Wait for the candle to close before entering. The strategy enters on the next bar's open to prevent repainting.
Respect the Bollinger Bands - Entries occur at the outer bands (price extremes), and exits occur at the opposite band or when momentum reverses.
Backtest First - Test the strategy on your preferred instruments and timeframes. Works best on liquid assets with clear trends and mean reversion patterns (stocks, major forex pairs, indices).
Adjust Gradient Visibility - Use the "Gradient Strength" slider (lower = more visible) to make signals stand out on your chart style.
Best Timeframes: 5-minute to 1-hour charts for intraday trading; 4-hour to daily for swing trading (I have also found the 3 hour timeframe to work really well for some stocks / ETFs.)
Best Markets: Liquid instruments with volatility - SPY, QQQ, major stocks, EUR/USD, GBP/USD, major indices
Risk Management: This is a mean reversion strategy that works best in ranging or choppy markets. In strong trends, signals may appear less frequently. Always use proper position sizing and stop losses based on your risk tolerance.

## 🎯 What is a Pinbar?
A **Pinbar (Pin Bar/Pinocchio Bar)** is a single candlestick pattern that indicates a potential price reversal:
### Bullish Pinbar (BUY Signal)
- **Long lower wick** (rejection of lower prices)
- **Small body at the top** of the candle
- Shows buyers rejected sellers' attempt to push price down
- Forms at support levels or swing lows
- Entry signal for LONG positions
### Bearish Pinbar (SELL Signal)
- **Long upper wick** (rejection of higher prices)
- **Small body at the bottom** of the candle
- Shows sellers rejected buyers' attempt to push price up
- Forms at resistance levels or swing highs
- Entry signal for SHORT positions
---
## 🔧 How the Indicator Works
### 1. **Pinbar Detection Logic**
The indicator analyzes the **previous closed bar ** to identify pinbar patterns:
```
Bullish Pinbar Requirements:
- Lower wick > 72% of total candle range (adjustable)
- Upper wick < 28% of total candle range
- Close > Open (bullish candle body)
Bearish Pinbar Requirements:
- Upper wick > 72% of total candle range (adjustable)
- Lower wick < 28% of total candle range
- Close < Open (bearish candle body)
```
**Why check ?** By analyzing the previous completed bar, we ensure the pattern is fully formed and won't change, preventing repainting.
---
### 2. **Three-Layer Filter System**
#### 🔍 **Filter #1: ATR (Average True Range) Filter**
- **Purpose**: Ensures the pinbar has significant size
- **Function**: Only signals if pinbar range ≥ ATR value
- **Benefit**: Filters out small, insignificant pinbars
- **Settings**:
- Enable/Disable toggle
- ATR Period (default: 7)
**Example**: If ATR = 50 pips, only pinbars with 50+ pip range will signal.
---
#### 🔍 **Filter #2: SWING Filter** (Always Active)
- **Purpose**: Confirms pinbar forms at swing highs/lows
- **Function**: Validates the pinbar is an absolute high/low
- **Benefit**: Identifies true reversal points
- **Settings**:
- Swing Candles (default: 3)
**How it works**:
- For bullish pinbar: Checks if low is lowest of past 3 bars
- For bearish pinbar: Checks if high is highest of past 3 bars
**Example**: With 3 swing candles, a bullish pinbar must have the lowest low among the last 3 bars.
---
#### 🔍 **Filter #3: RSI (Relative Strength Index) Filter**
- **Purpose**: Confirms momentum conditions
- **Function**: Prevents signals in extreme momentum zones
- **Benefit**: Avoids counter-trend trades
- **Settings**:
- Enable/Disable toggle
- RSI Period (default: 7)
- RSI Source (Close, Open, High, Low, HL2, HLC3, OHLC4)
- Overbought Level (default: 70)
- Oversold Level (default: 30)
**Logic**:
- Bullish Pinbar: Only signals if RSI < 70 (not overbought)
- Bearish Pinbar: Only signals if RSI > 30 (not oversold)
---
### 3. **Stop Loss Calculation**
Two methods available:
#### Method A: ATR-Based Stop Loss (Recommended)
```
Bullish Pinbar:
SL = Pinbar Low - (1 × ATR)
Bearish Pinbar:
SL = Pinbar High + (1 × ATR)
```
**Benefit**: Dynamic stops that adapt to market volatility
#### Method B: Fixed Pips Stop Loss
```
Bullish Pinbar:
SL = Pinbar Low - (Fixed Pips)
Bearish Pinbar:
SL = Pinbar High + (Fixed Pips)
```
**Settings**:
- Calculate Stop with ATR (toggle)
- Stop Pips without ATR (default: 5)
---
### 4. **Take Profit Calculation**
Take Profit is calculated based on Risk:Reward ratio:
```
Bullish Trade:
TP = Entry + (Entry - SL) × Risk:Reward Ratio
Bearish Trade:
TP = Entry - (SL - Entry) × Risk:Reward Ratio
```
**Example**:
- Entry: 1.2000
- SL: 1.1950 (50 pip risk)
- RR: 2:1
- TP: 1.2100 (100 pip reward = 50 × 2)
**Settings**:
- Risk:Reward Ratio (default: 1.0, range: 0.1 to 10.0)

## 🚫 Non-Repainting Architecture
### What is Repainting?
**Repainting** occurs when an indicator's historical signals differ from what appeared in real-time. This makes backtesting unreliable and can lead to false confidence in a strategy.
### How This Indicator Prevents Repainting
1. **Closed Bar Analysis**
- All calculations use ` ` offset (previous bar)
- Only analyzes COMPLETED candles
- Signals appear on the bar AFTER the pinbar closes
2. **Confirmed Swing Points**
- Waits for sufficient bar history before signaling
- Only checks historical bars that cannot change
- Prevents premature swing detection
3. **Static Alert Timing**
- Alerts fire only after bar completion
- No conditional logic that changes historically
- Same results in replay mode and live trading
### Verification Method
To verify non-repainting behavior:
1. Apply indicator to chart
2. Note signal locations and prices
3. Refresh browser / reload chart
4. **Signals remain in exact same locations**
---
## 💼 Trading Strategy Guidelines
### Entry Rules
**For Bullish Pinbar (LONG):**
1. Wait for green triangle to appear
2. Enter at close of pinbar (shown in label)
3. Alternative: Enter on break of pinbar high
4. Place stop loss at red SL line
5. Set target at green TP line
**For Bearish Pinbar (SHORT):**
1. Wait for red triangle to appear
2. Enter at close of pinbar (shown in label)
3. Alternative: Enter on break of pinbar low
4. Place stop loss at red SL line
5. Set target at green TP line
### Risk Management
- **Position Sizing**: Risk only 1-2% of account per trade
- **Stop Loss**: Always use the calculated SL (never move it wider)
- **Take Profit**: Use calculated TP or trail stop after 1:1 RR
- **Multiple Timeframes**: Confirm signals on higher timeframe
### Best Practices
✅ **DO:**
- Wait for bar to close before entering
- Trade in direction of higher timeframe trend
- Use on liquid markets with clear support/resistance
- Combine with price action analysis
- Keep a trading journal
❌ **DON'T:**
- Enter before bar closes (prevents seeing full pattern)
- Trade against strong trends
- Ignore the filters (they improve win rate)
- Risk more than 2% per trade
- Trade every signal (be selective)

## 🎓 Understanding the Filters
### Why Use Multiple Filters?
Single-indicator systems often generate too many false signals. This indicator uses a **confluence approach**:
1. **Pinbar Pattern** = Price rejection detected
2. **+ SWING Filter** = Rejection at key level
3. **+ ATR Filter** = Significant move
4. **+ RSI Filter** = Favorable momentum
**Result**: Higher probability setups with better risk:reward
### Filter Optimization
**Conservative Settings** (Fewer, Higher Quality Signals):
- ATR Filter: ON
- Swing Candles: 5
- RSI Filter: ON
- Shadow %: 75%
**Aggressive Settings** (More Signals, More Noise):
- ATR Filter: OFF
- Swing Candles: 2
- RSI Filter: OFF
- Shadow %: 65%
**Balanced Settings** (Recommended):
- ATR Filter: ON
- Swing Candles: 3
- RSI Filter: OFF (or ON for trending markets)
- Shadow %: 72%
---
## 🔍 Troubleshooting
### "No Signals Appearing"
**Possible Causes:**
1. Filters are too strict
2. No pinbars forming on chart
3. Insufficient bar history
**Solutions:**
- Reduce Shadow % to 65%
- Reduce Swing Candles to 2
- Disable ATR or RSI filters temporarily
- Check that chart has enough data loaded
### "Too Many Signals"
**Solutions:**
- Enable ATR filter
- Increase Swing Candles to 4-5
- Enable RSI filter
- Increase Shadow % to 75-80%
### "Signals Appearing Late"
**This is normal behavior!** The indicator:
- Analyzes previous closed bar
