Chronos Reversal Labs🧬 Chronos Reversal Lab - Machine Learning Market Structure Analysis
OVERVIEW
Chronos Reversal Lab (CRL) is an advanced market structure analyzer that combines computational intelligence kernels with classical technical analysis to identify high-probability reversal opportunities. The system integrates Shannon Entropy analysis, Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA), Kalman adaptive filtering, and harmonic pattern recognition into a unified confluence-based signal engine.
WHAT MAKES IT ORIGINAL
Unlike traditional reversal indicators that rely solely on oscillators or pattern recognition, CRL employs a multi-kernel machine learning approach that analyzes market behavior through information theory, statistical physics, and adaptive state-space estimation. The system combines these computational methods with geometric pattern analysis and market microstructure to create a comprehensive reversal detection framework.
HOW IT WORKS (Technical Methodology)
1. COMPUTATIONAL KERNELS
Shannon Entropy Analysis
Measures market uncertainty using information theory:
• Discretizes price returns into bins (user-configurable 5-20 bins)
• Calculates probability distribution entropy over lookback window
• Normalizes entropy to 0-1 scale (0 = perfectly predictable, 1 = random)
• Low entropy states (< 0.3 default) indicate algorithmic clarity phases
• When entropy drops, directional moves become statistically more probable
Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA)
Statistical technique measuring long-range correlations:
• Analyzes price series across multiple box sizes (4 to user-set maximum)
• Calculates fluctuation scaling exponent (Alpha)
• Alpha > 0.5: Trend persistence (momentum regime)
• Alpha < 0.5: Mean reversion tendency (reversal regime)
• Alpha range 0.3-1.5 mapped to trading strategies
Kalman Adaptive Filter
State-space estimation for lag-free trend tracking:
• Maintains separate fast and slow Kalman filters
• Process noise and measurement noise are user-configurable
• Tracks price state with adaptive gain adjustments
• Calculates acceleration (second derivative) for momentum detection
• Provides cleaner trend signals than traditional moving averages
2. HARMONIC PATTERN DETECTION

METHODOLOGY NOTE
The computational kernels (Shannon Entropy, DFA, Kalman Filter) are established statistical and signal processing techniques adapted for financial time series analysis. These are deterministic mathematical algorithms, not predictive AI models. The term "machine learning" refers to the adaptive, data-driven nature of the calculations, not neural networks or training processes.
Confluence scoring is rule-based with regime-dependent weighting. The system does not "learn" from historical trades but adapts its sensitivity to current volatility and trend conditions through mathematical regime classification.

Entries + FVG SignalsE+FVG: A Masterclass in Institutional Trading Concepts
Chapter 1: The Modern Trader's Dilemma—Decoding the Institutional Footprint
In the vast, often chaotic ocean of the financial markets, retail traders navigate with the tools they are given: conventional indicators like moving averages, RSI, and MACD. While useful for gauging momentum and general trends, these tools often fall short because they were not designed to interpret the primary force that moves markets: institutional order flow. The modern trader faces a critical challenge: the tools and concepts taught in mainstream trading education are often decades behind the sophisticated, algorithm-driven strategies employed by banks, hedge funds, and large financial institutions.
This leads to a frustrating cycle of seemingly inexplicable price movements. A trader might see a perfect breakout from a classic pattern, only for it to reverse viciously, stopping them out. They might identify a strong trend, yet struggle to find a logical entry point, consistently feeling "late to the party." These experiences are not random; they are often the result of institutional market manipulation designed to engineer liquidity.
The fundamental problem that E+FVG (Entries + FVG Signals) addresses is this informational asymmetry. It is a sophisticated, institutional-grade framework designed to move a trader's perspective from a retail mindset to a professional one. It does not rely on lagging, derivative indicators. Instead, it focuses on the two core elements of price action that reveal the true intentions of "Smart Money": liquidity and imbalances.
This is not merely another indicator to add to a chart; it is a complete analytical engine designed to help you see the market through a new lens. It deconstructs price action to pinpoint two critical things:
Where institutions are likely to hunt for liquidity (running stop-loss orders).
The specific price inefficiencies (Fair Value Gaps) they are likely to target.
By focusing on these core principles, E+FVG provides a logical, rules-based solution to identifying high-probability trade setups. It is built for the discerning trader who is ready to evolve beyond conventional technical analysis and learn a methodology that is aligned with how the market truly operates at an institutional level. It is, in essence, an operating system for "Smart Money" trading.
Chapter 2: The Core Philosophy—Liquidity is the Fuel, Imbalances are the Destination
To fully grasp the power of this tool, one must first understand its foundational philosophy, which is rooted in the core tenets of institutional trading, often referred to as Smart Money Concepts (SMC). This philosophy can be distilled into two simple, powerful ideas:
1. Liquidity is the Fuel that Moves the Market:
The market does not move simply because there are more buyers than sellers, or vice-versa. It moves to seek liquidity. Large institutions cannot simply click "buy" or "sell" to enter or exit their multi-million or billion-dollar positions. Doing so would cause massive slippage and alert the entire market to their intentions. Instead, they must strategically accumulate and distribute their positions in areas where there is a high concentration of orders.
Where are these orders located? They are clustered in predictable places: above recent swing highs (buy-stop orders from shorts, and breakout buy orders) and below recent swing lows (sell-stop orders from longs, and breakout sell orders). This collective pool of orders is called liquidity. Institutions will often drive price towards these liquidity pools in a "stop hunt" or "liquidity grab" to trigger those orders, creating the necessary volume for them to fill their own large positions, often in the opposite direction of the liquidity grab itself. Understanding this concept is the key to avoiding being the "fuel" and instead learning to trade alongside the institutions.
2. Imbalances (Fair Value Gaps) are the Magnets for Price:
When institutions enter the market with overwhelming force, they create an imbalance in the order book. This energetic, one-sided price movement often leaves behind a gap in the market's pricing mechanism. On a candlestick chart, this appears as a Fair Value Gap (FVG)—a three-candle formation where the wicks of the first and third candles do not fully overlap the range of the middle candle.
These are not random gaps; they represent an inefficiency in the market's price delivery. The market, in its constant quest for equilibrium, has a natural tendency to revisit these inefficiently priced areas to "rebalance" the order book. Therefore, FVGs act as powerful magnets for price. They serve as high-probability targets for a price move and, critically, as logical points of interest where price may reverse after filling the imbalance. A fresh, unfilled FVG is one of the most significant clues an institution leaves behind.
E+FVG is built entirely on this philosophy. The "Entries Simplified" engine is designed to identify the liquidity grabs, and the "FVG Signals" engine is designed to identify the imbalances. Together, they provide a complete, synergistic framework for institutional-grade analysis.
Chapter 3: The Engine, Part I—"Entries Simplified": A Framework for Precision Entry
This is the primary trade-spotting engine of the E+FVG tool. It is a multi-layered system designed to identify a very specific, high-probability entry model based on institutional behavior. It filters out market noise by focusing solely on the sequence of a liquidity sweep followed by a clear and energetic displacement.
Feature 1: The Multi-Timeframe Liquidity Engine
The first and most crucial step in the engine's logic is to identify a valid liquidity grab. The script understands that the most significant reversals are often initiated after price has swept a key high or low from a higher timeframe. A sweep of yesterday's high holds far more weight than a sweep of the last 5-minute high.
Automatic Timeframe Adaptation: The engine intelligently analyzes your current chart's timeframe and automatically selects an appropriate higher timeframe (HTF) for its core analysis. For instance, if you are on a 15-minute chart, it might reference the 4-hour or Daily chart to identify key structural points. This is done seamlessly in the background, ensuring the analysis is always anchored to a significant structural context without requiring manual input.
The "Sweep" Condition: The script is not looking for a simple touch of a high or low. It is looking for a definitive sweep (also known as a "stop hunt" or "Judas swing"). This is defined as price pushing just beyond a key prior candle's high or low and then closing back within its range. This specific price action pattern is a classic signature of a liquidity grab, indicating that the move's purpose was to trigger stops, not to start a new, sustained trend. The "Entries Simplified" engine is constantly scanning the HTF price action for these sweep events, as they are the necessary precondition for any potential setup.
Feature 2: The Upshift/Downshift Signal—Confirming the Reversal
Once a valid HTF liquidity sweep has occurred, the engine moves to its next phase: identifying the confirmation. A sweep alone is not enough; institutions must show their hand and reveal their intention to reverse the market. This confirmation comes in the form of a powerful structural breakout (for bullish reversals) or breakdown (for bearish reversals). We call these events Upshifts and Downshifts.
Defining the Upshift & Downshift: This is the critical moment of confirmation, the market "tipping its hand."
An Upshift occurs after a liquidity sweep below a key low. Following the sweep, price reverses with energy and produces a decisive breakout to the upside, closing above a recent, valid swing high. This action confirms that the prior downtrend's momentum is broken, the downward move was a trap to engineer liquidity, and institutional buyers are now in aggressive control.
A Downshift occurs after a liquidity sweep above a key high. Following the sweep, price reverses aggressively and produces a sharp breakdown to the downside, closing below a recent, valid swing low. This confirms that the prior uptrend's momentum has failed, the upward move was a liquidity grab, and institutional sellers have now taken control of the market.
Algorithmic Identification: The E+FVG engine uses a proprietary algorithm to identify these moments. It analyzes the candle sequence immediately following a sweep, looking for a specific type of market structure break characterized by high energy and displacement—often leaving imbalances (Fair Value Gaps) in its wake. This is not a simple "pivot break"; the algorithm is designed to distinguish between a weak, indecisive wiggle and a true, institutionally-backed Upshift or Downshift.
The Signal: When this precise sequence—a HTF liquidity sweep followed by a valid Upshift or Downshift on the trading timeframe—is confirmed, the indicator plots a clear arrow on the chart. A green arrow below a low signifies a Bullish setup (confirmed by an Upshift), while a red arrow above a high signifies a Bearish setup (confirmed by a Downshift). This is the core entry signal of the "Entries Simplified" engine.
Feature 3: Automated Price Projections—A Built-In Trade Management Framework
A valid entry signal is only one part of a successful trade. A trader also needs a logical framework for taking profits. The E+FVG engine completes its trade-spotting process by providing automated, mathematically-derived price projections.
Fibonacci-Based Logic: After a valid Upshift or Downshift signal is generated, the script analyzes the price leg that created the setup (i.e., the range from the liquidity sweep to the confirmation breakout/breakdown). It then uses a methodology based on standard Fibonacci extension principles to project several potential take-profit (TP) levels.
Multiple TP Levels: The indicator projects four distinct TP levels (TP1, TP2, TP3, TP4). This provides a comprehensive trade management framework. A conservative trader might aim for TP1 or TP2, while a more aggressive trader might hold a partial position for the higher targets. These levels are plotted on the chart as clear, labeled lines, removing the guesswork from profit-taking.
Dynamic and Adaptive: These projections are not static. They are calculated uniquely for each individual setup, based on the specific volatility and range of the price action that generated the signal. This ensures that the take-profit targets are always relevant to the current market conditions.
The "Entries Simplified" engine, therefore, provides a complete, end-to-end framework: it waits for a high-probability condition (HTF sweep), confirms it with a specific entry model (Upshift/Downshift), and provides a logical road map for managing the trade (automated projections).
Chapter 4: The Engine, Part II—"FVG Signals": Mapping Market Inefficiencies
This second, complementary engine of the E+FVG tool operates as a market mapping system. Its sole purpose is to identify, plot, and monitor Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)—the critical price inefficiencies that act as magnets and potential reversal points.
Feature 1: Dual Timeframe FVG Detection
The significance of an FVG is directly related to the timeframe on which it forms. A 1-hour FVG is a more powerful magnet for price than a 1-minute FVG. The FVG engine gives you the ability to monitor both simultaneously, providing a richer, multi-dimensional view of the market's inefficiencies.
Chart TF FVGs: The indicator will, by default, identify and plot the FVGs that form on your current, active chart timeframe. These are useful for short-term scalping and for fine-tuning entries.
Higher Timeframe (HTF) FVGs: With a single click, you can enable the HTF FVG detection. This allows you to overlay, for example, 1-hour FVGs onto your 5-minute chart. This is an incredibly powerful feature. Seeing a 5-minute price rally approaching a fresh, unfilled 1-hour bearish FVG gives you a high-probability context for a potential reversal. The HTF FVGs act as major points of interest that can override the short-term price action.
Feature 2: The Intelligent "Tap-In" Logic—Beyond a Simple Touch
Many FVG indicators will simply alert you when price touches an FVG. The E+FVG engine employs a more sophisticated, two-stage logic to generate its signals, which helps to filter out weak reactions and focus on confirmed reversals.
Stage 1: The Entry. The first event is when price simply enters the FVG zone. This is a "heads-up" moment, and the indicator can be configured to provide an initial alert for this event.
Stage 2: The Confirmed "Tap-In." The official signal, however, is the "Tap-In." This is a more stringent condition. For a bullish FVG, a Tap-In is only confirmed after price has touched or entered the FVG zone and then closed back above the FVG's high. For a bearish FVG, the price must touch or enter the zone and then close back below the FVG's low. This confirmation logic ensures that the FVG has not just been touched, but has been respected and rejected by the market, making the resulting arrow signal significantly more reliable than a simple touch alert.
Feature 3: Interactive and Clean Visuals
The FVG engine is designed to provide maximum information with minimum chart clutter.
Clear, Color-Coded Boxes: Bullish FVGs are plotted in one color (e.g., green or blue), and bearish FVGs in another (e.g., red or orange), with a clear distinction between Chart TF and HTF zones.
Optional Box Display: Recognizing that some traders prefer a cleaner chart, you have the option to hide the FVG boxes entirely. Even with the boxes hidden, the underlying logic remains active, and the script will still generate the crucial Tap-In arrow signals.
Automatic Fading: Once an FVG has been successfully "tapped," the script can be set to automatically fade the color of the box. This provides a clear visual cue that the zone has been tested and may have less significance going forward.
Expiration: FVGs do not remain relevant forever. The script automatically removes old FVG boxes from the chart after a user-defined number of bars, ensuring your analysis is always focused on the most recent and relevant market inefficiencies.
Chapter 5: The Power of Synergy—How the Two Engines Work Together
While both the "Entries Simplified" engine and the "FVG Signals" engine are powerful standalone tools, their true potential is unlocked when used in combination. They are designed to provide confluence—a scenario where two or more independent analytical concepts align to produce a single, high-conviction trade idea.
Scenario A: The A+ Setup (Upshift into FVG). This is the highest probability setup. Imagine the "Entries Simplified" engine detects a HTF liquidity sweep below a key low, followed by a bullish Upshift signal. You look at your chart and see that this strong upward displacement is heading directly towards a fresh, unfilled bearish HTF FVG. This provides you with both a high-probability entry signal and a logical, high-probability target for the trade.
Scenario B: The FVG Confirmation. A trader might see the "Entries Simplified" engine generate a bearish Downshift signal. They feel it is a valid setup but want one extra layer of confirmation. They wait for price to rally a little further and "tap-in" to a nearby bearish FVG that formed during the Downshift's displacement. The FVG Tap-In signal then serves as their final confirmation trigger to enter the trade.
Scenario C: The Standalone FVG Trade. The FVG engine can also be used as a primary trading tool. A trader might notice that price is in a strong uptrend. They see price pulling back towards a fresh, bullish HTF FVG. They are not waiting for a full Upshift/Downshift setup; instead, they are simply waiting for the FVG Tap-In signal to confirm that the pullback is likely over and the trend is ready to resume.
By learning to read the interplay between these two engines, a trader can elevate their analysis from a one-dimensional process to a multi-dimensional, context-aware methodology.
Chapter 6: The Workflow—A Step-by-Step Guide to Practical Application
Step 1: The Pre-Market Analysis (Mapping the Battlefield). Before your session begins, enable the HTF FVG detection. Identify the key, unfilled HTF FVGs above and below the current price. These are your major points of interest for the day—your potential targets and reversal zones.
Step 2: Await the Primary Condition (Patience for Liquidity). During your trading session, your primary focus should be on the "Entries Simplified" engine. Your job is to wait patiently for the script to identify a valid HTF liquidity sweep. Do not force trades in the middle of a price range where no significant liquidity has been taken.
Step 3: The Upshift/Downshift Alert (The Call to Action). When the red or green arrow from the "Entries Simplified" engine appears, it is your cue to focus your attention. This is a potential high-probability setup.
Step 4: The Confluence Check (Building Conviction). With the Upshift or Downshift signal on your chart, ask the key confluence questions:
Did the displacement from the Upshift/Downshift create a new FVG?
Is the projected path of the trade heading towards a pre-identified HTF FVG?
Has an FVG Tap-In signal appeared shortly after the initial signal, offering further confirmation?
Step 5: Execute and Manage. If you have sufficient confluence, execute the trade. Use the automated price projections as your guide for profit-taking. A logical stop-loss is typically placed just beyond the high or low of the liquidity sweep that initiated the entire sequence.
Chapter 7: The Trader's Mind—Mastering the Institutional Mindset
This tool is more than a set of algorithms; it is a training system for professional trading psychology.
From Chasing to Trapping: You stop chasing breakouts and instead learn to identify where others are being trapped.
From FOMO to Patience: The strict, sequential logic of the entry model (Sweep -> Upshift/Downshift) forces you to wait for the highest quality setups, curing the Fear Of Missing Out.
Probabilistic Thinking: By focusing on liquidity and imbalances, you begin to think in terms of probabilities, not certainties. You understand that you are putting on trades where the odds are statistically in your favor, which is the cornerstone of any professional trading career.
Clarity and Confidence: The clear, rules-based signals remove ambiguity and second-guessing. This builds the confidence needed to execute trades decisively when the opportunity arises.
Chapter 8: Frequently Asked Questions & Scenarios
Q: The "Entries Simplified" code looks complex. Do I need to understand all of it?
A: No. The engine is designed to perform its complex analysis in the background. Your job is to understand the principles—liquidity sweep and the resulting Upshift or Downshift—and to recognize the clear arrow signals that the script generates when those conditions are met.
Q: Can I turn one of the engines off?
A: Yes, the indicator is modular. If you only want to focus on Fair Value Gaps, for example, you can disable the plot shapes for the "Entries Simplified" signals in the settings, and vice-versa.
Q: Does this work on all assets and timeframes?
A: The principles of liquidity and imbalance are universal and apply to all markets, from cryptocurrencies to forex to indices. The fractal nature of the analysis means the concepts are valid on all timeframes. However, it is always recommended that a trader backtest and forward-test the tool on their specific instrument and timeframe of choice to understand its unique behavior.

Syndicate Bias Universal (Auto)Syndicate Bias Universal (Auto): A Masterclass in Time-Based Trading
Chapter 1: The Modern Trader's Dilemma—A New Framework for a Noisy Market
In today's hyper-connected financial markets, the modern trader is faced with a profound paradox: we have access to more information than ever before, yet achieving consistent clarity has never been more challenging. We are inundated with a relentless stream of price data, countless indicators, breaking news, and expert opinions. This information overload often leads not to better decision-making, but to analysis paralysis, emotional trading, and a chronic sense of being one step behind the market's true intentions.
The fundamental problem that Syndicate Bias Universal (Auto) addresses is this struggle for clarity amidst the noise. It challenges the conventional approach of relying solely on price- and volume-based indicators, which are inherently lagging and often produce conflicting signals. Instead, it introduces a crucial, and often overlooked, third dimension to technical analysis: time.
This indicator is not merely another tool to be added to a cluttered chart; it is a comprehensive, systematic framework designed to reinterpret market dynamics through the structured lens of trading sessions. Its core function is to deconstruct any trading period—from an entire week down to the smallest intraday segments—into a clear, four-part narrative structure, which we call "Quarters."
Many traders can correctly identify a market's general direction but consistently struggle with the critical question of when to act. This timing issue leads to the most common trading errors: entering positions too early only to be stopped out by volatility, entering too late and catching the tail-end of a move, or being whipsawed by directionless chop. This script provides a logical, rules-based solution by identifying a specific, high-probability time window within each session where reversal setups are most likely to occur. It is built for the discerning trader who is ready to evolve—to move beyond reactive, emotionally-driven decisions and adopt a structured, patient, and objective methodology for market engagement. It is, in essence, an operating system for disciplined trading.
Chapter 2: The Core Philosophy—Viewing the Market as a Four-Quarter Game
At its heart, this indicator operates on a powerful principle: market sessions, regardless of their duration, exhibit a discernible rhythm and structure, much like a four-quarter game of football, a four-act theatrical play, or the four seasons of a year. Price action is not a chaotic, random walk. It is a story unfolding, driven by the collective psychology of millions of participants. This story often follows a recurring pattern of opening, exploration, climax, and resolution.
By dividing trading sessions into four distinct quarters, we can better contextualize this narrative. This temporal structure acts as a powerful filter, cutting through the incessant noise of minor price fluctuations and focusing the trader's attention on the moments that truly matter.
Quarter 1 (The Opening Act): This is the period of price discovery. The market is absorbing overnight news, and early participants are establishing their initial positions. The character of this quarter—whether it is quiet and rotational or strong and directional—provides crucial clues about the session's potential.
Quarter 2 (The Exploration): Following the initial open, the market begins to test the levels established in Q1. This is often a period of consolidation or early trend development, where weaker hands are shaken out.
Quarter 3 (The Climax): Often, this is where the session's primary, decisive move occurs. It can be a powerful trend continuation or, critically, a major reversal point where the initial momentum shows signs of exhaustion.
Quarter 4 (The Resolution): This is the closing period, characterized by profit-taking, late-day position adjustments, and a general decrease in volume as the session winds down.
This is not a "black box" system promising guaranteed results. It is a transparent methodology built on a clear, logical foundation of session analysis. Its purpose is to empower you with a deeper understanding of market behavior, transforming you from a mere participant, tossed about by the market's waves, into a patient observer who waits for specific, high-probability conditions to align before acting. Embracing this philosophy is the first and most crucial step to unlocking the tool's full potential.
Chapter 3: The Engine—Key Features & In-Depth Principles
This section dissects the sophisticated mechanics that power the indicator. Each feature is designed to work in concert, creating a robust and adaptive analytical engine.
Feature 1: Universal Market Adaptability—A Global, Intelligent Tool
A significant weakness of many trading tools is their inherent rigidity. An indicator fine-tuned for the unique volatility profile and session times of the New York open will invariably underperform or provide false signals when applied to the different rhythms of the Indian or Asian markets. Syndicate Bias Universal eradicates this problem with a sophisticated, dual-mode adaptability engine.
Intelligent Auto-Detection: This is the default and recommended setting for most traders. When the "Market Type" input is set to "Auto," the script becomes a dynamic, context-aware tool. It intelligently queries the exchange information (syminfo.prefix) of the instrument you are currently viewing. It automatically recognizes major Indian exchanges (NSE, BSE, MCX) and all other global exchanges. Based on this identification, it seamlessly applies the correct session timing logic—using "Asia/Kolkata" for Indian instruments and "America/New_York" for global instruments (Forex, Commodities, US Equities, etc.).
This allows traders with a diverse watchlist to move effortlessly from analyzing the NIFTY 50 to EUR/USD to Crude Oil, confident that the underlying temporal analysis remains precise, relevant, and correctly calibrated to the dominant trading hours of each asset. There is no need for manual adjustment or multiple chart templates; the indicator handles the complex work of timezone alignment for you.
Focused Manual Override: For the advanced trader, the manual override provides an indispensable layer of analytical control. There are specific scenarios where locking the indicator to a particular time zone, regardless of the asset being viewed, is crucial.
Cross-Market Influence Analysis: A European trader analyzing the DAX index might want to lock the indicator to "Global" (New York) time during the afternoon to see how the US open influences the German market's behavior in its final hours.
Commodity and Forex Trading: A trader in Asia specializing in WTI Crude Oil or Gold knows that these markets are heavily dominated by the New York session. By locking the indicator to "Global," they can apply the correct temporal structure to their analysis, even if their local time is different.
Consistent Strategy Application: A trader who has developed a strategy based purely on the London/New York session overlap can lock the indicator to "Global" and apply this single, consistent framework across any and all instruments they trade.
This dual-mode system ensures that the indicator is both effortlessly simple for those who need it to be and powerfully flexible for those who require granular control.
Feature 2: Fractal Quarter-Based Analysis—Structure at Every Scale
The term "fractal" in market analysis refers to the principle that the same patterns of collective human behavior—driven by greed, fear, hope, and indecision—manifest repeatedly across all timeframes. A pattern that takes months to unfold on a weekly chart can play out in a matter of minutes on a one-minute chart. The Syndicate Bias Universal indicator is built on this very principle, applying its Four-Quarter structure consistently from the highest macro view down to the lowest micro view.
This provides a unified, coherent framework for analysis, regardless of your trading style.
The Weekly Quarter (The Position Trader's View): At this macro level, the trading week is divided into four primary segments (e.g., Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday). This perspective is invaluable for position traders and long-term investors. It helps answer critical strategic questions: Is the week's opening action on Monday establishing a trend that will likely hold, or is it creating the conditions for a mid-week reversal? The weekly quarters help contextualize the larger battle between long-term buyers and sellers.
The Daily Quarter (The Swing Trader's View): Here, the full 24-hour global trading day is partitioned into four 6-hour quarters. This is the ideal lens for swing traders and day traders who aim to capture the dominant move of the day or a multi-day swing. It helps them avoid the morning "chop" by understanding the initial price discovery phase and position themselves for the more decisive moves that often occur in the later quarters of the global session.
Intraday Quarters: 90min, Micro, and Nano (The Day Trader's & Scalper's View): For traders operating on the front lines of intraday price action, the script drills down with surgical precision. It breaks down shorter sessions into their own complete four-quarter cycles. This granular view is essential for timing precise entries, managing trades with tight stop-losses, and understanding the micro-rhythms of order flow. It helps scalpers identify high-probability windows to trade, while allowing them to step back and avoid periods of low liquidity or erratic price action.
To keep you anchored, the script automatically selects and displays the relevant analysis timeframe ("Auto TF") in a non-intrusive display on your chart. This seemingly simple feature is a crucial navigational tool, constantly reminding you of the specific temporal context the engine is currently analyzing, ensuring your decisions are always aligned with the appropriate structural scale.
Feature 3: The "S-Quarter" Timing Window—The Art of Strategic Patience
This is the intellectual core of the indicator and its most powerful feature. It is the mechanism that transforms trading from a constant, stressful hunt for opportunities into a calm, disciplined, and strategic wait. The S-Quarter (Search Quarter) engine enforces patience by activating its search for trade setups only within a specific, algorithmically determined time window.
The Q1 Volatility Profile Analysis: The process begins at the start of a new session. The indicator's logic performs a sophisticated analysis of the price action within the first quarter (Q1). It looks beyond simple direction and evaluates its character. This involves assessing the nature of the opening period's volatility. Is the range expanding or contracting? Is the price action rotational and indecisive, or is it directional and backed by momentum? A quiet, low-volatility Q1 suggests a different market psychology and implies a very different probabilistic path for the rest of the session compared to a strong, high-volume, trend-setting Q1.
Dynamic and Adaptive Window Selection: Based on this nuanced Q1 profile, the script makes a critical, forward-looking determination: which of the subsequent quarters (Q2, Q3, or Q4) is most likely to host a significant market turning point, a liquidity grab, or an exhaustion event. This designated period is the "S-Quarter." The selection is dynamic and adaptive:
If Q1 was a powerful, trending move, the engine might identify Q3 as the S-Quarter, anticipating that the initial momentum will wane, drawing in late trend-followers just in time for a sharp reversal.
If Q1 was a tight, rotational range, the engine might identify Q2 as the S-Quarter, anticipating that the first breakout attempt from this range will likely be a "head fake" designed to trap traders before the real move begins in the opposite direction.
This intelligent selection is what sets the tool apart. It doesn't use a fixed, one-size-fits-all timing window. It adapts its search to the unique, unfolding conditions of each individual trading session. The S-Quarter is the only time the script will actively look for and display trade setups. This powerful filter is the key to mastering trading psychology. It prevents impulsive entries, eliminates the fear of missing out (FOMO), dramatically reduces exposure to choppy and unpredictable market periods, and aligns your actions with the moments of highest probabilistic edge.
Feature 4: Contrarian Reversal Setups—Identifying Market Exhaustion
The setups generated by this indicator are contrarian by design. They are not trend-following signals. They are based on the principle of identifying moments where a prevailing short-term move is reaching a point of exhaustion, often culminating in a "liquidity grab."
The Mechanics of a Liquidity Grab: Within the pre-defined S-Quarter, the script vigilantly monitors short-term market structure, specifically the pivot highs and pivot lows. A break of a recent, significant pivot is a critical event. The script's logic posits that during the S-Quarter, these breakouts are often not the beginning of a sustained new trend. Instead, they are frequently a calculated move by institutional players to "run the stops"—a stop hunt designed to trigger the stop-loss orders of retail traders who are positioned on the wrong side of the market. This action injects a surge of liquidity into the market, which is precisely what larger players need to fill their large orders in the opposite direction.
Bullish Reversal Setup (Fading the Low): This setup is triggered by a break below a recent structural low during the S-Quarter. This event signals that the sellers who pushed the price to a new low may have exhausted their power in the process of running the stops. The trap has been set, and this alert serves as a potential turning point where buyers are likely to step in with force.
Bearish Reversal Setup (Fading the High): This setup is triggered by a break above a recent structural high during the S-Quarter. This suggests that the final, euphoric wave of buying pressure may be culminating in a liquidity grab. The last of the breakout buyers have been drawn in at the worst possible price, presenting an opportunity for informed sellers to take control and initiate a move downwards.
It is absolutely essential to understand that these are high-probability setups, not automated entry signals. They are sophisticated alerts that tell you, "The conditions are now ripe for a potential reversal within our strategic time window." The final decision to execute a trade, and the management of that trade, always rests with you, the trader.
Chapter 4: The Workflow—A Step-by-Step Guide to Practical Application
This section provides a clear, actionable workflow for integrating the Syndicate Bias Universal indicator into your daily trading routine.
Step 1: Initial Configuration (The Pre-Flight Check). Begin by setting the "Market Type." For maximum efficiency across a varied watchlist, leave it on "Auto." If you are a specialist who focuses on one specific market session, manually select "Global" or "Indian" to lock in your preferred analytical framework. Ensure other visual settings, like "Show Active Quarter Boxes," are enabled.
Step 2: Contextualize the Session (Reading the Field). At the start of your trading day, observe the quarter boxes as they begin to form. Pay attention to the story they tell. Is the Q1 box narrow and tight, suggesting indecision? Is it wide and directional, suggesting a strong opening sentiment? This visual context helps you build an intuitive feel for the session's rhythm long before any signal appears.
Step 3: Exercise Strategic Patience (The Professional's Edge). This is the most critical and often the most difficult step. The script will automatically perform its Q1 analysis and silently determine the S-Quarter. Your job is to wait. Resist the urge to trade during the other quarters. This disciplined inaction is not passive; it is an active strategy. It conserves your mental and financial capital for the moments that count the most.
Step 4: The Alert (The Call to Action). When a label—"Look for Bullish/Bearish reversal"—appears on your chart, it is your cue to shift from a passive, observational state to an active, analytical one. This is the moment you have been waiting for. Do not instantly click "buy" or "sell." The alert is a call to focus your attention, not a command to act blindly.
Step 5: The Confirmation Process (Your Personal Edge). The setup is the start, not the end, of your trade analysis. This is where you apply your own skills to confirm the validity of the setup. For example, upon seeing a Bullish Reversal Setup:
Candlestick Analysis: Look for confirmation candles like a powerful bullish engulfing bar, a hammer, or a dragonfly doji forming right after the new low was made.
Volume Analysis: Check if the move to the new low was on high, climactic volume that suddenly dried up, followed by an increase in volume as the price starts to reverse.
Indicator Confluence: Look for bullish divergence on an oscillator like the RSI or MACD, where price makes a new low but the indicator makes a higher low.
This confirmation process is what integrates the indicator into your unique trading style, making it exponentially more powerful.
Step 6: Execute and Manage Risk (The Business of Trading). Once you have your confirmation, execute your trade according to your plan. Risk management is paramount. A logical stop-loss for a Bullish Reversal Setup would typically be placed just below the low of the liquidity grab candle. Your take-profit targets should be based on your analysis of key resistance levels. Always ensure the potential reward of the trade justifies the initial risk. A setup is a probabilistic edge, not a certainty.
Chapter 5: The Trader's Mind—Mastering the Psychology of Time
Integrating this tool effectively is as much about mastering psychology as it is about technical analysis. Its very design encourages the development of a professional trading mindset.
From Impulsive to Patient: The S-Quarter forces you to wait for the market to come to you, curing the impulsive need to be "in a trade" at all times.
From Reactive to Proactive: You are no longer reacting to every price tick. You have a proactive plan: you know which time window you are interested in and what condition you are waiting for. This puts you in a position of mental control.
Building Unshakeable Discipline: By consistently following the framework, you are building the muscle of discipline. You learn that often the most profitable action is no action at all.
Conquering FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out): FOMO is driven by unstructured, random trading. When you know you are only interested in a specific type of setup within a specific time window, the moves that happen outside of that framework become irrelevant noise. You cannot miss a move you were never supposed to take.
Gaining Confidence Through Structure: The clarity and structure provided by the Four-Quarter framework build immense confidence. You are not guessing; you are executing a well-defined plan based on a logical, repeatable methodology.
Chapter 6: Frequently Asked Questions & Scenarios
Q: What happens if no setup appears during the S-Quarter?
A: This is one of the most valuable outcomes the indicator can provide. It means that during the high-probability window, the market did not produce a clear exhaustion or liquidity grab event. The script has effectively told you that the conditions were not optimal for a high-probability reversal, and the correct decision was to preserve your capital. A null signal is a powerful signal in itself.
Q: Can I use this indicator with my existing trend-following strategy?
A: Absolutely. In fact, it's a perfect combination. You can use your macro trend-following tools to establish the dominant weekly or daily direction. Then, you can use the Syndicate Bias Universal indicator on a lower timeframe to look for contrarian setups that signal the end of a pullback, allowing you to enter the trade in the direction of the larger trend at a much better price.
Q: Which analysis timeframe ("Auto TF") is the 'best' one to use?
A: There is no "best" timeframe; there is only the timeframe that is right for your trading style. This is precisely why the fractal design is so powerful. A long-term swing trader might focus primarily on the signals generated by the Daily quarters, while a high-frequency scalper will live within the Micro and Nano quarters. The indicator adapts to you, not the other way around. Experiment and find the resolution that best suits your personality and trading goals.

📊 HOW IT WORKS
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
SIGNAL METHODOLOGY:
BUY SIGNAL generates when ALL conditions are met:
• Smoothed price > Moving Average (upward price trend)
• PVT > PVT Average (volume supporting uptrend)
• ROC > 0 (positive momentum)
• Close > VWMA (above volume-weighted average)
SELL SIGNAL generates when ALL conditions are met:
• Smoothed price < Moving Average (downward price trend)
• PVT < PVT Average (volume supporting downtrend)
• ROC < 0 (negative momentum)
• Close < VWMA (below volume-weighted average)
This multi-factor approach filters out weak signals and waits for
strong convergence before generating alerts.
RISK CALCULATION:
Stop Loss = Entry ± (ATR × SL Multiplier)
• Uses Average True Range for volatility measurement
• Automatically adjusts to market conditions
Take Profit Levels = Entry ± (Risk Distance × TP Multiplier × Level)
• Risk Distance = |Entry - Stop Loss|
• Creates risk-reward based targets
• Example: TP Multiplier 1.0 = 1:1, 2:2, 3:3 risk-reward
⚠️ NOTE: All risk levels are VISUAL REFERENCES for educational study.

Reversal Entries [akshaykiriti1443]Reversal Entries : An In-Depth Guide
This indicator is designed to identify high-probability trend reversal points. Its primary goal is to pinpoint moments where the price attempts to break a key level, fails, and then snaps back with force. These "fakeouts" or "liquidity grabs" are often powerful signals that the market is about to reverse course.
The indicator provides two clear signals:
* 🟢 **A Bullish "Bounce Point"**: A potential buy signal after price dips below support and recovers.
* 🔴 **A Bearish "Rejection Point"**: A potential sell signal after price spikes above resistance and is pushed back down.
---
## The Core Logic: What Makes a Signal?
The indicator doesn't just look at one factor. Instead, it requires **three key conditions** to be met simultaneously before it generates a signal. This multi-layered approach helps filter out noise and identify only the most promising setups.
### 1. The Price Action "Fakeout" 🕵️♂️
This is the foundation of the signal. The indicator first identifies a short-term support or resistance level.
* **Support:** The lowest price over the `Lookback` period.
* **Resistance:** The highest price over the `Lookback` period.
It then waits for a specific pattern:
* For a **Bullish Bounce**, the current candle's low must dip **below** the support level, but its closing price must be **above** that same support level. This shows that sellers tried to push the price down but buyers stepped in with overwhelming force.
* For a **Bearish Rejection**, the current candle's high must poke **above** the resistance level, but its closing price must be **below** that same resistance level. This shows that buyers tried to break out, but sellers took control and slammed the price back down.
### 2. Volume Confirmation 🔊
A true reversal is almost always accompanied by a surge in trading activity. The indicator confirms the price action by checking for a **volume spike**.
It calculates the recent average volume and only accepts the signal if the volume on the reversal candle is significantly higher than that average (the default is 1.5 times higher). This confirms that there is real conviction and money behind the move, making it much more reliable.
### 3. Recovery Strength & Probability Score 💯
This is the indicator's "secret sauce." It doesn't just see a reversal; it measures *how strong* that reversal is.
* **Measuring the Recovery:** It uses the Average True Range (ATR) to measure the size of the price's recovery. For a bullish bounce, it measures the distance from the candle's low to its close. For a bearish rejection, it measures the distance from the high to the close. A long wick in the direction of the reversal signifies a powerful rejection of lower or higher prices.
* **Calculating a Probability Score:** The indicator takes the volume spike confirmation and the recovery strength and feeds them into a mathematical formula (a sigmoid function) to generate a "probability score" between 0 and 1. Think of this as a confidence score.
* **Applying the Threshold:** A signal is only plotted on your chart if this confidence score is above the `Probability Threshold` (default is 0.7, or 70%). This is the final filter that ensures only high-conviction setups are shown.
---
## How to Use the Indicator in Your Trading
This indicator provides entry signals, but it should be used as part of a complete trading plan.
### Understanding the Signals
* **Green `+` (Bounce Point):** When you see this signal below a candle, it's a potential **BUY entry**. It suggests that the downward momentum has been rejected and the price may be ready to move higher.
* **Red `-` (Rejection Point):** When you see this signal above a candle, it's a potential **SELL entry**. It suggests that the upward momentum has failed and the price may be ready to fall.
### Example Trading Strategy
1. **Entry:** Enter a trade when a signal appears. For a green `+`, place a buy order. For a red `-`, place a sell order.
2. **Stop Loss:** A logical stop loss is crucial.
* For a **buy trade**, place your stop loss just below the low of the signal candle. If the price breaks this low, the reversal idea is invalidated.
* For a **sell trade**, place your stop loss just above the high of the signal candle. If the price breaks this high, the setup has failed.
3. **Take Profit:** Your take profit should be based on your own strategy. A common approach is to target the next significant support or resistance level or use a fixed risk-to-reward ratio (e.g., 1:1.5 or 1:2).
**Important:** Always consider the overall market context. These signals tend to be more powerful when they align with the broader trend or occur at major, higher-timeframe support and resistance zones.
---
## Customizing the Settings
You can fine-tune the indicator's sensitivity in the settings menu to match your trading style and the asset you are trading.
* **`Support/Resistance Lookback`**: Controls how far back the indicator looks to find support and resistance. A **smaller number** makes it more sensitive to very recent price action. A **larger number** will focus on more significant, longer-term levels.
* **`Volume Spike Multiplier`**: Defines what counts as a "spike." Increasing this value (e.g., to 2.0) will demand a much larger volume surge, leading to fewer but potentially more reliable signals.
* **`ATR for Recovery`**: This sets the period for the ATR calculation, which is used to measure the recovery strength. It's generally best to leave this at its default unless you are an advanced user.
* **`Probability Threshold`**: This is the most important sensitivity setting.
* **Increase it** (e.g., to 0.85) for fewer, very high-quality signals.
* **Decrease it** (e.g., to 0.60) to see more potential setups, though some may be less reliable.

FVG Buy/Sell [Multi-TF] by akshaykiriti1443The FVG Buy/Sell indicator is a precision trading tool designed for traders who operate with a clear directional bias. It excels at identifying high-probability entry points by detecting when price interacts with Fair Value Gaps (FVGs).
This indicator is built on a core principle: instead of predicting the market's direction, it provides the timing for an entry after you, the trader, have established your market bias. By automatically pinpointing bullish and bearish imbalances on both the current and a higher timeframe, it allows you to wait for the market to pull back to a key level and then provides a clear signal for execution.
The Core Strategy: Bias First, Entry Second
This indicator is most powerful when used as part of a two-step trading process. It is not a standalone signal generator; it is an entry confirmation tool.
Step 1: Determine Your Directional Bias
Before looking for any signals from this indicator, you must first have an opinion on the market's most likely direction. This bias should be derived from your primary analysis method, such as:
The Golden Rule:
If your bias is BULLISH, you will ONLY look for BUY signals generated by bullish (green/blue) FVGs. You will ignore all SELL signals.
If your bias is BEARISH, you will ONLY look for SELL signals generated by bearish (pink/orange) FVGs. You will ignore all BUY signals.
Step 2: Execute with the FVG Tap-In Signal
Once your bias is set, the indicator does the rest of the work. You simply wait for the price to pull back into an FVG zone that aligns with your bias and then wait for the confirmation arrow to appear.
A green up arrow confirms that price has tapped a bullish FVG and closed above it, signaling that support has held and it's a valid moment to enter a long position.
A red down arrow confirms that price has tapped a bearish FVG and closed below it, signaling that resistance has held and it's a valid moment to enter a short position.
How to Take a Trade (Step-by-Step Examples)
Example of a Bullish (Long) Trade Setup:
Establish Bias: Your primary analysis shows the market is in a clear uptrend. Your bias is Bullish. You are now only looking for buying opportunities.
Identify Zone: The indicator draws a bullish FVG (a green or blue box) during an impulsive up-move.
Wait for Pullback: Be patient and let the price retrace down into this FVG zone. Do not chase the price.
Confirmation Signal: A green UP arrow appears below a candle. This is your signal. It confirms that buyers have stepped in at the FVG level and defended it.
Entry: Enter a long (buy) position at the open of the candle immediately following the signal candle.
Stop Loss: Place your stop loss below the low of the signal candle or, for a safer stop, below the bottom of the FVG zone itself.
Take Profit: Target a previous high, a higher-timeframe resistance level, or use a risk-to-reward ratio like 1:2 or 1:3.
Example of a Bearish (Short) Trade Setup:
Establish Bias: Your primary analysis shows the market is breaking down into a downtrend. Your bias is Bearish. You are now only looking for selling opportunities.
Identify Zone: The indicator draws a bearish FVG (a pink or orange box) during an impulsive down-move.
Wait for Pullback: Patiently wait for the price to rally back up into this FVG zone.
Confirmation Signal: A red DOWN arrow appears above a candle. This is your confirmation that sellers have rejected the price at this level.
Entry: Enter a short (sell) position at the open of the next candle.
Stop Loss: Place your stop loss above the high of the signal candle or above the top of the FVG zone.
Take Profit: Target a previous low, a key support level, or the next major FVG below.
Features Explained in Detail
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis: HTF zones (dotted lines) carry more weight. A signal from a 4-hour FVG while you are on a 15-minute chart is significantly more powerful than a signal from a 15-minute FVG alone. Use HTF zones as major points of interest.
Confirmed Tap-In Logic: The arrow only appears after price has touched the zone and then closed outside of it in the expected direction. This built-in confirmation filters out wicks that simply pass through a zone without a real market reaction.
Dual Alert System:
Entry Alert ("Price has entered..."): This is a heads-up alert. It tells you to pay attention because price is now in your pre-defined zone of interest.
Tap-In Alert ("Confirmed tap-in..."): This is the execution alert. It signals that the conditions for a trade have been met according to the indicator's logic.
Fade on Tapped: When enabled, a zone will become transparent after a confirmed signal. This visually cleans up your chart, showing you which zones have already been tested and "mitigated."
Minimum FVG Size (Ticks): In volatile or ranging markets, many tiny, insignificant FVGs can form. Use this setting to filter out the noise. Increase the value to only display larger, more significant imbalances.
Disclaimer: Trading involves substantial risk. This indicator is a tool for analysis and should not be used as a sole reason to enter a trade. Always practice robust risk management and use this tool in conjunction with your own trading plan. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
PulseGrid Universal Scalper - Adaptive Pulse and Symmetric SpansInstrument agnostic. Works on any symbol and timeframe supported by TradingView.
Message or hit me up in chat for full access .
Purpose and scope
PulseGrid is a short timeframe strategy designed to read intrabar structure and recent path so that entries align with actionable momentum and context. The strategy is private. The description below provides all the information needed to understand how it behaves, how it sizes risk, how to tune it responsibly, and how to evaluate results without making unrealistic claims. The design is instrument agnostic. It runs on any asset class that prints open high low close bars on TradingView. That includes commodities such as Gold and WTI, currencies, crypto, equity indices, and single stocks. Performance will always depend on the symbol’s liquidity, spread, slippage, and session structure, which is why the description focuses on principles and safe parameter ranges instead of hard promises.
What the strategy does at a glance
It builds a composite entry signal named Pulse from five normalized bar features that reflect short term pressure and follow through.
It applies regime guards that keep the strategy inactive when the tape is either too quiet, too bursty, or too directionally random.
It optionally uses a directional filter where a fast and a slow exponential average must agree and their gap must be material relative to recent true range.
When a signal is allowed, risk is sized using symmetric spans that come from nearby untraded price distances above and below the market. The strategy sets a single stop and a single take profit from those spans.
Lines for entry, stop, and take profit are drawn on the chart. A compact on chart table shows trade counts, win rate, average R per trade, and profit factor for all trades, longs only, and shorts only.
This combination yields entries that are reactive but not chaotic, and risk lines that respect the market’s recent path instead of generic pip or point targets.
Why the design is original and useful
The core originality is the union of a composite entry that adapts to volatility and a geometry based risk model. The entry uses five different viewpoints on the same bar space instead of relying on a single technical indicator. The risk model uses spans that come from actual untraded distance rather than fixed multipliers of a generic volatility measure. The result is a framework that is simple to read on a chart and simple to evaluate, yet it avoids the traps of curve fitting to one symbol or one month of data. Because everything is normalized locally, the same logic translates across asset classes with only modest tuning.
The Pulse composite in detail
Pulse is a weighted blend of the following normalized features.
Impulse imbalance. The script sums upward and downward impulses over a short window. An upward impulse is the extension of highs relative to the prior bar. A downward impulse is the extension of lows relative to the prior bar. The net imbalance, scaled by the local range, captures whether extension pressure is building or fading.
Wick and close location. Inside each bar, the distance between the close and the extremes carries information about rejection or acceptance. A bar that closes near the high with relatively heavier lower wick suggests upward acceptance. A bar that closes near the low with heavier upper wick suggests downward acceptance. A weight controls the contribution of wick skew versus close location so that users can favor reversal or momentum behaviour.
Shock touches. Within the recent range window, touches that occur very near the top decile or bottom decile are marked. A short sliding window counts recent shocks. Frequent top shocks in a rising context suggest supply tests. Frequent bottom shocks in a declining context suggest demand tests. The count is normalized by window length.
Breakout ledger. The script compares current extremes to lagged extremes and keeps a simple count of recent upside and downside breakouts. The difference behaves as a short term polarity meter.
Curvature. A simple second difference in closing price acts as a curvature term. It is normalized by the recent maximum of absolute one bar returns so that the value remains bounded and comparable to other terms.
Pulse is smoothed over a fraction of the main signal length. Smoothing removes impulse spikes without destroying the quick reaction that scalpers need. The absolute value of smoothed Pulse can be used with an adaptive gate so that only the top percentile of energy for the recent environment is eligible for entries. A small floor prevents accidental entries during very quiet periods.
Regime guards that keep the strategy selective
Three guards must all pass before any entry can occur.
Auction Balance Factor. This is the proportion of closes that land inside a mid band of the prior bar’s high to low range. High values indicate balanced chop where breakouts tend to fail. Low values indicate directional conditions. The strategy requires ABF to sit below a user chosen maximum.
Dispersion via a Gini style measure on absolute returns. Very low dispersion means bars are small and uniform. Very high dispersion means a few outsized bars dominate and slippage risk can be elevated. The strategy allows the user to require the dispersion measure to remain inside a band that reflects healthy activity.
Binary entropy of direction. Over the core window, the proportion of up closes is used to compute a simple entropy. Values near one indicate coin flip behaviour. Values near zero indicate one sided sequences. The guard requires entropy below a ceiling so that random directionality does not produce noise entries.
An optional directional filter asks that a fast and a slow exponential average agree on direction and that their gap, when divided by an average true range, exceed a threshold. This filter can be enabled on symbols that trend cleanly and disabled when the composite entry is already selective enough.
Risk sizing with symmetric spans
Instead of fixed points or a pure ATR multiplier, the strategy sizes stops and targets from a pair of spans. The upward span reflects recent untraded distance above the market. The downward span reflects recent untraded distance below the market. Each span is floored by a fallback that comes from the maximum of a short simple range average and a standard average true range. A tick based floor prevents microscopic stops on instruments with high tick precision. An asymmetry cap prevents one span from becoming many times larger than the other. For long entries the stop is a multiple of the downward span and the target is a multiple of the upward span. For short entries the stop is a multiple of the upward span and the target is a multiple of the downward span. This creates a risk box that is symmetric by construction yet adaptive to recent voids and gaps.
Execution, ties, and housekeeping
Entries evaluate at bar close. Exits are tested from the next bar forward. If both stop and target are hit within the same bar, the outcome can be resolved in a consistent way that favors the stop or the target according to a single user setting. A short cooldown in bars prevents flip flops. Users can restrict entries to specific sessions such as London and New York. The chart renders entry, stop, and target lines for each trade so that every action is visible. The table in the top right shows trade counts, take profit and stop counts, win rate, average R per trade, and profit factor for the whole set and by direction.
Defaults and responsible backtesting
The default properties in the script use a realistic initial capital and commission value. Users should also set slippage in the strategy properties to reflect their broker and symbol. Small timeframe trading is sensitive to friction and the strategy description does not claim immunity to that reality. The strategy is intended to be tested on a dataset that produces a meaningful sample of trades. A sample in the range of a hundred trades or more is preferred because variance in short samples can be large. On thin symbols or periods with little regular trading, users should either change timeframe, change sessions, or use more selective thresholds so that the sample contains only liquid scenarios.
Universal usage across markets
The strategy is universal by design. It will run and produce lines on any open high low close series on TradingView. The composite entry is made of normalized parts. The regime guards use proportions and bounded measures. The spans use untraded distance and range floors measured in the local price scale. This allows the same logic to function on a currency pair, a commodity, an index future, a stock, or a crypto pair. What changes is calibration.
A safe approach for universal use is as follows.
Start with the default signal length and wick weight.
If the chart prints many weak signals, enable the directional filter and raise the normalized gap threshold slightly.
If the chart is too quiet, lower the adaptive percentile or, with adaptive off, lower the fixed pulse threshold by a small amount.
If stops are too tight in quiet regimes, raise the fallback span multiplier or raise the minimum tick floor in ticks.
If you observe long one sided days, lower the maximum entropy slightly so that entries only occur when directionality is genuine rather than alternating.
Because the logic is bounded and local, these simple steps carry over across symbols. That is why the strategy can be used literally on any asset that you can load on a TradingView chart. The code does not depend on a specific tick size or a specific exchange calendar. It will still remain true that symbols with higher spread or fewer regular trading hours demand stricter thresholds and larger floors.
Suggested parameter ranges for common cases
These ranges are guidelines for one to five minute bars. They are not promises of performance. They reflect the balance between having enough signals to learn from and keeping noise controlled.
Signal length between 18 and 34 for liquid commodities and large capitalization equities.
Wick weight between 0.30 and 0.50 depending on whether you want reversal recognition or close momentum.
Adaptive gate percentile between 85 and 93 when adaptive is enabled. Fixed threshold between 0.10 and 0.18 when adaptive is disabled. Use a non zero floor so very quiet periods still require some energy.
Auction Balance Factor maximum near 0.70 for symbols with clear session bursts. Slightly higher if you prefer to include more balanced prints.
Dispersion band with a lower bound near 0.18 and an upper bound near 0.68 for most session instruments. Tighten the band if you want to skip very bursty days or very flat days.
Entropy maximum near 0.90 so coin flip phases are filtered. Lower the ceiling slightly if the symbol whipsaws frequently.
Stop multiplier near one and take profit multiplier between two and three for a single target approach. Larger target multipliers reduce hit rate and lengthen holding time.
These are safe starting points across commodities, currencies, indices, equities, and crypto. From there, small increments are preferred over dramatic changes.
How to evaluate responsibly
A clean chart and a direct test process help avoid confusion. Use standard candles for signals and exits. If you use a non standard chart type such as Heikin Ashi or Renko, do so only for visualization and not for the strategy’s signal computation, as those chart types can produce unrealistic fills. Turn off other indicators on the published chart unless they are needed to demonstrate a specific property of this strategy. When you post results or discuss outcomes, include the symbol, timeframe, commission and slippage settings, and the session settings used. This makes the context clear and avoids misleading readers.
When you look at results, consider the following.
The distribution of R per trade. A positive average R with a moderate profit factor suggests that exits are sized appropriately for the symbol.
The balance between long and short sides. The HUD table separates the two so you can see if one side carries the edge for that symbol.
The sensitivity to the tie preference. If many bars hit both stop and take profit, the market is chopping inside the risk box and you may need larger floors or stricter regime guards.
The session effect. Session hours matter for many instruments. Align your session filter with where liquidity and volatility concentrate.
Known limitations and honest warnings
PulseGrid is not a guarantee of future profit. It is a systematic way to read short term structure and to size risk in a way that reflects recent path. It assumes that the data feed reflects the exchange reality. It assumes that slippage and spread are non zero and uses explicit commission and user provided slippage to approximate that. It does not place multiple targets. It does not trail stops. It is not a high frequency system and does not attempt to model queue priority or microsecond fills. On illiquid symbols or very short timeframes outside regular hours, signals will be less reliable. Users are responsible for choosing realistic settings and for evaluating whether the symbol’s conditions are suitable.
First use checklist
Load the symbol and timeframe you care about.
If the instrument has clear sessions, turn on the session filter and select realistic London and New York hours or other sessions relevant to the instrument.
Set commission and slippage in the strategy properties to values that match your broker or exchange.
Run the strategy with defaults. Look at the HUD summary and the lines.
Decide whether to enable the directional filter. If you see frequent reversals around the entry line, enable it and raise the normalized gap threshold slightly.
Adjust the adaptive gate. If the chart floods, raise the percentile. If the chart starves, lower it or use a slightly lower fixed threshold.
Adjust the fallback span multiplier and tick floor so that stops are never microscopic.
Review per session performance. If one session underperforms, restrict entries to the better one.
This simple process takes minutes and transfers to any other symbol.
Why this script is private
The source remains private so that the underlying method and its implementation details are not copied or republished. The description here is complete and self contained so that users can understand the purpose, originality, usage, and limitations without needing to inspect the source. Privacy does not change the strategy’s on chart behavior. It only protects the specific coding details.
Guarantee and compliance statements
This description does not contain advertising, solicitations, links, or contact information. It does not make performance promises. It explains how the script is original and how it works. It also warns about limitations and the need for realistic assumptions. The strategy is not investment advice and is not created only for qualified investors. It can be tested and used for educational and research purposes. Users should read TradingView’s documentation on script properties and backtesting. Users should avoid non standard chart types for signal computation because those produce unrealistic results. Users should select realistic account sizes and friction settings. Users should not post claims without showing the settings used.
Closing summary
PulseGrid is a compact framework for short timeframe trading that combines a composite entry built from multiple normalized bar features with a symmetric span model for risk. The entry adapts to volatility. The regime guards keep the strategy inactive when the tape is either too quiet or too erratic. The risk geometry respects recent untraded spans instead of arbitrary distances. The entire design is instrument agnostic. It will run on any symbol that TradingView supports and it will behave consistently across asset classes with modest tuning. Use it with a clean chart, realistic friction, and enough trades to make your evaluation meaningful. Use sessions if the instrument concentrates activity in specific hours. Adjust one control at a time and prefer small increments. The goal is not to find a magic parameter. The goal is to maintain a stable rule set that reads market structure in a way you can trust and audit.

## 💡 How It Works
### **Phase 1: Box Formation (9:15 AM - 9:45 AM)**
The indicator tracks the high and low prices during your specified time window to create a reference box representing the opening range.
### **Phase 2: Breakout Detection**
After the box is locked, the system monitors for:
- **Bullish Breakout**: Price closes above box high for confirmation bars
- **Bearish Breakout**: Price closes below box low for confirmation bars
### **Phase 3: Signal Generation**
When confirmation requirements are met:
- Entry signal is generated with clear visual label
- Target price is calculated (Entry ± Target Points)
- Position tracking activates
- Cooldown timer starts
### **Phase 4: Position Management**
During active trade:
- **Add-On Logic**: If price pulls back by specified distance but stays within favorable range, additional entry signal fires
- **Target Monitoring**: Continuously checks if price reaches TP level
- **Box Adjustment**: After TP hit, box automatically shifts to new range for next opportunity
### **Phase 5: Trade Exit & Reset**
On target hit:
- Position closes with TP marker
- Statistics update
- Box repositions for next setup
- Cooldown activates
- System ready for next signal

BOCS Channel Scalper Indicator - Mean Reversion Alert System# BOCS Channel Scalper Indicator - Mean Reversion Alert System
## WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES:
This is a mean reversion trading indicator that identifies consolidation channels through volatility analysis and generates alert signals when price enters entry zones near channel boundaries. **This indicator version is designed for manual trading with comprehensive alert functionality.** Unlike automated strategies, this tool sends notifications (via popup, email, SMS, or webhook) when trading opportunities occur, allowing you to manually review and execute trades. The system assumes price will revert to the channel mean, identifying scalp opportunities as price reaches extremes and preparing to bounce back toward center.
## INDICATOR VS STRATEGY - KEY DISTINCTION:
**This is an INDICATOR with alerts, not an automated strategy.** It does not execute trades automatically. Instead, it:
- Displays visual signals on your chart when entry conditions are met
- Sends customizable alerts to your device/email when opportunities arise
- Shows TP/SL levels for reference but does not place orders
- Requires you to manually enter and exit positions based on signals
- Works with all TradingView subscription levels (alerts included on all plans)
**For automated trading with backtesting**, use the strategy version. For manual control with notifications, use this indicator version.
## ALERT CAPABILITIES:
This indicator includes four distinct alert conditions that can be configured independently:
**1. New Channel Formation Alert**
- Triggers when a fresh BOCS channel is identified
- Message: "New BOCS channel formed - potential scalp setup ready"
- Use this to prepare for upcoming trading opportunities
**2. Long Scalp Entry Alert**
- Fires when price touches the long entry zone
- Message includes current price, calculated TP, and SL levels
- Notification example: "LONG scalp signal at 24731.75 | TP: 24743.2 | SL: 24716.5"
**3. Short Scalp Entry Alert**
- Fires when price touches the short entry zone
- Message includes current price, calculated TP, and SL levels
- Notification example: "SHORT scalp signal at 24747.50 | TP: 24735.0 | SL: 24762.75"
**4. Any Entry Signal Alert**
- Combined alert for both long and short entries
- Use this if you want a single alert stream for all opportunities
- Message: "BOCS Scalp Entry: at "
**Setting Up Alerts:**
1. Add indicator to chart and configure settings
2. Click the Alert (⏰) button in TradingView toolbar
3. Select "BOCS Channel Scalper" from condition dropdown
4. Choose desired alert type (Long, Short, Any, or Channel Formation)
5. Set "Once Per Bar Close" to avoid false signals during bar formation
6. Configure delivery method (popup, email, webhook for automation platforms)
7. Save alert - it will fire automatically when conditions are met
**Alert Message Placeholders:**
Alerts use TradingView's dynamic placeholder system:
- {{ticker}} = Symbol name (e.g., NQ1!)
- {{close}} = Current price at signal
- {{plot_1}} = Calculated take profit level
- {{plot_2}} = Calculated stop loss level
These placeholders populate automatically, creating detailed notification messages without manual configuration.
## KEY DIFFERENCE FROM ORIGINAL BOCS:
**This indicator is designed for traders seeking higher trade frequency.** The original BOCS indicator trades breakouts OUTSIDE channels, waiting for price to escape consolidation before entering. This scalper version trades mean reversion INSIDE channels, entering when price reaches channel extremes and betting on a bounce back to center. The result is significantly more trading opportunities:
- **Original BOCS**: 1-3 signals per channel (only on breakout)
- **Scalper Indicator**: 5-15+ signals per channel (every touch of entry zones)
- **Trade Style**: Mean reversion vs trend following
- **Hold Time**: Seconds to minutes vs minutes to hours
- **Best Markets**: Ranging/choppy conditions vs trending breakouts
This makes the indicator ideal for active day traders who want continuous alert opportunities within consolidation zones rather than waiting for breakout confirmation. However, increased signal frequency also means higher potential commission costs and requires disciplined trade selection when acting on alerts.
## TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY:
### Price Normalization Process:
The indicator normalizes price data to create consistent volatility measurements across different instruments and price levels. It calculates the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period (default 100 bars). Current close price is normalized using: (close - lowest_low) / (highest_high - lowest_low), producing values between 0 and 1 for standardized volatility analysis.
### Volatility Detection:
A 14-period standard deviation is applied to the normalized price series to measure price deviation from the mean. Higher standard deviation values indicate volatility expansion; lower values indicate consolidation. The indicator uses ta.highestbars() and ta.lowestbars() to identify when volatility peaks and troughs occur over the detection period (default 14 bars).
### Channel Formation Logic:
When volatility crosses from a high level to a low level (ta.crossover(upper, lower)), a consolidation phase begins. The indicator tracks the highest and lowest prices during this period, which become the channel boundaries. Minimum duration of 10+ bars is required to filter out brief volatility spikes. Channels are rendered as box objects with defined upper and lower boundaries, with colored zones indicating entry areas.
### Entry Signal Generation:
The indicator uses immediate touch-based entry logic. Entry zones are defined as a percentage from channel edges (default 20%):
- **Long Entry Zone**: Bottom 20% of channel (bottomBound + channelRange × 0.2)
- **Short Entry Zone**: Top 20% of channel (topBound - channelRange × 0.2)
Long signals trigger when candle low touches or enters the long entry zone. Short signals trigger when candle high touches or enters the short entry zone. Visual markers (arrows and labels) appear on chart, and configured alerts fire immediately.
### Cooldown Filter:
An optional cooldown period (measured in bars) prevents alert spam by enforcing minimum spacing between consecutive signals. If cooldown is set to 3 bars, no new long alert will fire until 3 bars after the previous long signal. Long and short cooldowns are tracked independently, allowing both directions to signal within the same period.
### ATR Volatility Filter:
The indicator includes a multi-timeframe ATR filter to avoid alerts during low-volatility conditions. Using request.security(), it fetches ATR values from a specified timeframe (e.g., 1-minute ATR while viewing 5-minute charts). The filter compares current ATR to a user-defined minimum threshold:
- If ATR ≥ threshold: Alerts enabled
- If ATR < threshold: No alerts fire
This prevents notifications during dead zones where mean reversion is unreliable due to insufficient price movement. The ATR status is displayed in the info table with visual confirmation (✓ or ✗).
### Take Profit Calculation:
Two TP methods are available:
**Fixed Points Mode**:
- Long TP = Entry + (TP_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
- Short TP = Entry - (TP_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
**Channel Percentage Mode**:
- Long TP = Entry + (ChannelRange × TP_Percent)
- Short TP = Entry - (ChannelRange × TP_Percent)
Default 50% targets the channel midline, a natural mean reversion target. These levels are displayed as visual lines with labels and included in alert messages for reference when manually placing orders.
### Stop Loss Placement:
Stop losses are calculated just outside the channel boundary by a user-defined tick offset:
- Long SL = ChannelBottom - (SL_Offset_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
- Short SL = ChannelTop + (SL_Offset_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
This logic assumes channel breaks invalidate the mean reversion thesis. SL levels are displayed on chart and included in alert notifications as suggested stop placement.
### Channel Breakout Management:
Channels are removed when price closes more than 10 ticks outside boundaries. This tolerance prevents premature channel deletion from minor breaks or wicks, allowing the mean reversion setup to persist through small boundary violations.
## INPUT PARAMETERS:
### Channel Settings:
- **Nested Channels**: Allow multiple overlapping channels vs single channel

## HOW TO USE:
### For 1-3 Minute Scalping with Alerts (NQ/ES):
- ATR Timeframe: "1" (1-minute)
- ATR Min Value: 10.0 (for NQ), adjust per instrument
- Entry Zone %: 20-25%
- TP Method: Fixed Points, 20-40 ticks
- SL Offset: 5-10 ticks
- Cooldown: 2-3 bars to reduce alert spam
- **Alert Setup**: Configure "Any Entry Signal" for combined long/short notifications
- **Execution**: When alert fires, verify chart visuals, then manually place limit order at entry zone with provided TP/SL levels
### For 5-15 Minute Day Trading with Alerts:
- ATR Timeframe: "5" or match chart
- ATR Min Value: Adjust to instrument (test 8-15 for NQ)
- Entry Zone %: 20-30%
- TP Method: % of Channel, 40-60%
- SL Offset: 5-10 ticks
- Cooldown: 3-5 bars
- **Alert Setup**: Configure separate "Long Scalp Entry" and "Short Scalp Entry" alerts if you trade directionally based on bias
- **Execution**: Review channel structure on alert, confirm ATR filter shows ✓, then enter manually
### For 30-60 Minute Swing Scalping with Alerts:
- ATR Timeframe: "15" or "30"
- ATR Min Value: Lower threshold for broader market
- Entry Zone %: 25-35%
- TP Method: % of Channel, 50-70%
- SL Offset: 10-15 ticks
- Cooldown: 5+ bars or disable
- **Alert Setup**: Use "New Channel Formation" to prepare for setups, then "Any Entry Signal" for execution alerts
- **Execution**: Larger timeframes allow more analysis time between alert and entry
### Webhook Integration for Semi-Automation:
- Configure alert webhook URL to connect with platforms like TradersPost, TradingView Paper Trading, or custom automation
- Alert message includes all necessary order parameters (direction, entry, TP, SL)
- Webhook receives structured data when signal fires
- External platform can auto-execute based on alert payload
- Still maintains manual oversight vs full strategy automation
## USAGE CONSIDERATIONS:
- **Manual Discipline Required**: Alerts provide opportunities but execution requires judgment. Not all alerts should be taken - consider market context, trend, and channel quality
- **Alert Timing**: Alerts fire on bar close by default. Ensure "Once Per Bar Close" is selected to avoid false signals during bar formation
- **Notification Delivery**: Mobile/email alerts may have 1-3 second delay. For immediate execution, use desktop popups or webhook automation
- **Cooldown Necessity**: Without cooldown, rapidly touching price action can generate excessive alerts. Start with 3-bar cooldown and adjust based on alert volume
- **ATR Filter Impact**: Enabling ATR filter dramatically reduces alert count but improves quality. Track filter status in info table to understand when you're receiving fewer alerts
- **Commission Awareness**: High alert frequency means high potential trade count. Calculate if your commission structure supports frequent scalping before acting on all alerts
## COMPATIBLE MARKETS:
Works on any instrument with price data including stock indices (NQ, ES, YM, RTY), individual stocks, forex pairs (EUR/USD, GBP/USD), cryptocurrency (BTC, ETH), and commodities. Volume-based features are not included in this indicator version. Multi-timeframe ATR requires higher-tier TradingView subscription for request.security() functionality on timeframes below chart timeframe.
## KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
- **Indicator does not execute trades** - alerts are informational only; you must manually place all orders
- **Alert delivery depends on TradingView infrastructure** - delays or failures possible during platform issues
- **No position tracking** - indicator doesn't know if you're in a trade; you must manage open positions independently
- **TP/SL levels are reference only** - you must manually set these on your broker platform; they are not live orders
- **Immediate touch entry can generate many alerts** in choppy zones without adequate cooldown
- **Channel deletion at 10-tick breaks** may be too aggressive or lenient depending on instrument tick size
- **ATR filter from lower timeframes** requires TradingView Premium/Pro+ for request.security()
- **Mean reversion logic fails** in strong breakout scenarios - alerts will fire but trades may hit stops
- **No partial closing capability** - full position management is manual; you determine scaling out
- **Alerts do not account for gaps** or overnight price changes; morning alerts may be stale
## RISK DISCLOSURE:
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. This indicator provides signals for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Mean reversion strategies can experience extended drawdowns during trending markets. Alerts are not guaranteed to be profitable and should be combined with your own analysis. Stop losses may not fill at intended levels during extreme volatility or gaps. Never trade with capital you cannot afford to lose. Consider consulting a licensed financial advisor before making trading decisions. Always verify alerts against current market conditions before executing trades manually.
## ACKNOWLEDGMENT & CREDITS:
This indicator is built upon the channel detection methodology created by **AlgoAlpha** in the "Smart Money Breakout Channels" indicator. Full credit and appreciation to AlgoAlpha for pioneering the normalized volatility approach to identifying consolidation patterns. The core channel formation logic using normalized price standard deviation is AlgoAlpha's original contribution to the TradingView community.
Enhancements to the original concept include: mean reversion entry logic (vs breakout), immediate touch-based alert generation, comprehensive alert condition system with customizable notifications, multi-timeframe ATR volatility filtering, cooldown period for alert management, dual TP methods (fixed points vs channel percentage), visual TP/SL reference lines, and real-time status monitoring table. This indicator version is specifically designed for manual traders who prefer alert-based decision making over automated execution.
Katz Impact Wave 🚀Overview of the Katz Impact Wave 🚀
The Katz Impact Wave is a momentum oscillator designed to visualize the battle between buyers and sellers. Instead of combining bullish and bearish pressure into a single line, it separates them into two distinct "Impact Waves."
Its primary goal is to generate clear trade signals by identifying when one side gains control, but only when the market has enough volatility to be considered "moving." This built-in filter helps to avoid signals during flat or choppy market conditions.
Indicator Components: Lines & Plots
Impact Waves & Fill
Green Wave (Total Up Impulses): This line represents the cumulative buying pressure. When this line is rising, it indicates that bulls are getting stronger.
Red Wave (Total Down Impulses): This line represents the cumulative selling pressure. When this line is rising, it indicates that bears are getting stronger.
Colored Fill: The shaded area between the two waves provides an at-a-glance view of who is in control.
Lime Fill: Bulls are dominant (Green Wave is above the Red Wave).
Red Fill: Bears are dominant (Red Wave is above the Green Wave).
Background Color
The background color provides crucial context about the market state according to the indicator's logic.
Green Background: The market is in a bullish state (Green Wave is dominant) AND the Rate of Change (ROC) filter confirms the market is actively moving.
Red Background: The market is in a bearish state (Red Wave is dominant) AND the ROC filter confirms the market is actively moving.
Gray Background: The market is considered "not moving" or is in a low-volatility chop. Signals that occur when the background is gray should be viewed with extreme caution or ignored.
Symbols & Pivot Lines
▲ Blue Triangle (Up): This is your long entry signal. It appears on the bar where the Green Wave crosses above the Red Wave while the market is moving.
▼ Orange Triangle (Down): This is your short entry signal. It appears on the bar where the Red Wave crosses above the Green Wave while the market is moving.
Pivot Lines (Solid Green/Red/White Lines): These lines mark confirmed peaks of exhaustion in momentum, not price.
Green Pivot Line: Marks a peak in the Green Wave, signaling buying momentum exhaustion. This can be a warning that the uptrend is losing steam.
Red Pivot Line: Marks a peak in the Red Wave, signaling selling momentum exhaustion. This can be a warning that the downtrend is losing steam.
▼ Yellow Triangle (Compression): This rare signal appears when buying and selling exhaustion pivots happen at the same level. It signifies a point of extreme indecision or equilibrium that often occurs before a major price expansion.
Trading Rules & Strategy
This indicator provides entry signals but does not provide explicit Take Profit or Stop Loss levels. You must use your own risk management rules.
Long Trade Rules
Entry Signal: Wait for a blue ▲ triangle to appear at the top of the indicator panel.
Confirmation: Ensure the background color is green, confirming the market is in a bullish, moving state.
Action: Enter a long (buy) trade at the open of the next candle after the signal appears.
Short Trade Rules
Entry Signal: Wait for an orange ▼ triangle to appear at the bottom of the indicator panel.
Confirmation: Ensure the background color is red, confirming the market is in a bearish, moving state.
Action: Enter a short (sell) trade at the open of the next candle after the signal appears.
Take Profit (TP) & Stop Loss (SL) Ideas
You must develop and test your own exit strategy. Here are some common approaches:
Stop Loss:
Place a stop loss below the most recent significant swing low on the price chart for a long trade, or above the recent swing high for a short trade.
Use an ATR (Average True Range) based stop, such as 2x the ATR value below your entry for a long, to account for market volatility.
Take Profit:
Opposite Signal: The simplest exit is to close your trade when the opposite signal appears (e.g., close a long trade when a short signal ▼ appears).
Momentum Exhaustion: For a long trade, consider taking partial or full profit when a green Pivot Line appears, signaling that buying momentum is peaking.
Fixed Risk/Reward: Use a predetermined risk/reward ratio (e.g., 1:1.5 or 1:2).
Disclaimer
This indicator is a tool for analysis, not a financial advisor or a guaranteed profit system. All trading and investment activities involve substantial risk. You should not risk more than you are prepared to lose. Past performance is not an indication of future results. You are solely responsible for your own trading decisions, risk management, and for backtesting this or any other tool before using it in a live trading environment.

Katz Exploding PowerBand FilterUnderstanding the Katz Exploding PowerBand Filter (EPBF) v2.4
1. Indicator Overview
The Katz Exploding PowerBand Filter (EPBF) is an advanced technical indicator designed to identify moments of expanding bullish or bearish momentum, often referred to as "power." It operates as a standalone oscillator in a separate pane below the main price chart.
Its primary goal is to measure underlying market strength by calculating custom "Bull" and "Bear" power components. These components are then filtered through a versatile moving average and a dual signal line system to generate clear entry and exit signals. This indicator is not a simple momentum oscillator; it uses a unique calculation based on exponential envelopes of both price and squared price to derive its values.
2. On-Chart Lines and Components
The indicator pane consists of five main lines:
Bullish Component (Thick Green/Blue/Yellow/Gray Line): This is the core of the indicator. It represents the calculated bullish "power" or momentum in the market.
Bright Green: Indicates a strong, active long signal condition.
Blue: Shows the bull component is above the MA filter, but the filter itself is still pointing down—a potential sign of a reversal or weakening downtrend.
Yellow: A warning sign that bullish power is weakening and has fallen below the primary signal lines.
Gray: Represents neutral or insignificant bullish power.
Bearish Component (Thick Red/Purple/Yellow/Gray Line): This line represents the calculated bearish "power" or downward momentum.
Bright Red: Indicates a strong, active short signal condition.
Purple: Shows the bear component is above the MA filter, but the filter itself is still pointing down—a sign of potential trend continuation.
Yellow: A warning sign that bearish power is weakening.
Gray: Represents neutral or insignificant bearish power.
MA Filter (Purple Line): This is the main filter, calculated using the moving average type and length you select in the settings (e.g., HullMA, EMA). The Bull and Bear components are compared against this line to determine the underlying trend bias.
Signal Line 1 (Orange Line): A fast Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the stronger power component. It acts as the first level of dynamic support or resistance for the power lines.
Signal Line 2 (Lime/Gray Line): A slower EMA that acts as a confirmation filter.
Lime Green: The line turns lime when it is rising and the faster Signal Line 1 is above it, indicating a confirmed bullish trend in momentum.
Gray: Indicates a neutral or bearish momentum trend.
3. On-Chart Symbols and Their Meanings
Various characters are plotted at the bottom of the indicator pane to provide clear, actionable signals.
L (Pre-Long Signal): The first sign of a potential long entry. It appears when the Bullish Component rises and crosses above both signal lines for the first time.
S (Pre-Short Signal): The first sign of a potential short entry. It appears when the Bearish Component rises and crosses above both signal lines for the first time.
▲ (Post-Long Signal): A stronger confirmation for a long entry. It appears with the 'L' signal only if the momentum trend is also confirmed bullish (i.e., the slower Signal Line 2 is lime green).
▼ (Post-Short Signal): A stronger confirmation for a short entry. It appears with the 'S' signal only if the momentum trend is confirmed bullish.
Exit / Take-Profit Symbols:
These symbols appear when a power component crosses below a line, suggesting that momentum is fading and it may be time to take profit.
⚠️ (Exit Signal 1): The Bull/Bear component has crossed below the main MA Filter. This is the first and most sensitive take-profit signal.
☣️ (Exit Signal 2): The Bull/Bear component has crossed below the faster Signal Line 1. This is a moderate take-profit signal.
🚼 (Exit Signal 3): The Bull/Bear component has crossed below the slower Signal Line 2. This is the slowest take-profit signal, suggesting the trend is more definitively exhausted.
4. Trading Strategy and Rules
Long Entry Rules:
Initial Signal: Wait for an L to appear at the bottom of the indicator. This confirms that bullish power is expanding.
Confirmation (Recommended): For a higher-probability trade, wait for a green ▲ symbol to appear. This confirms the underlying momentum trend aligns with the signal.
Entry: Enter a long (buy) position on the opening of the next candle after the signal appears.
Short Entry Rules:
Initial Signal: Wait for an S to appear at the bottom of the indicator. This confirms that bearish power is expanding.
Confirmation (Recommended): For a higher-probability trade, wait for a maroon ▼ symbol to appear. This confirms the underlying momentum trend aligns with the signal.
Entry: Enter a short (sell) position on the opening of the next candle after the signal appears.
Take Profit (TP) Rules:
The indicator provides three levels of take-profit signals. You can choose to exit your entire position or scale out at each level.
For a long trade, exit when you see ⚠️, ☣️, or 🚼 appear below the Bullish Component.
For a short trade, exit when you see ⚠️, ☣️, or 🚼 appear below the Bearish Component.
Stop Loss (SL) Rules:
The indicator does not provide an explicit stop loss. You must use your own risk management rules. Common methods include:
Swing High/Low: For a long position, place your stop loss below the most recent significant swing low on the price chart. For a short position, place it above the most recent swing high.
ATR-Based: Use an Average True Range (ATR) indicator to set a volatility-based stop loss.
Fixed Percentage: Risk a fixed percentage (e.g., 1-2%) of your account on the trade.

ICT Turtle Soup (Riz)The ICT Turtle Soup Complete System is an advanced implementation of the Inner Circle Trader's interpretation of the classic Turtle Soup pattern, designed to identify and trade liquidity sweeps at key market levels. This strategy capitalizes on the systematic stop-loss hunting behavior of institutional traders by detecting when price temporarily breaches significant support/resistance levels to trigger retail stop-losses, then quickly reverses direction.
Core Trading Logic
Liquidity Sweep Detection Method
The strategy monitors five critical liquidity pools where retail traders commonly place stop-loss orders:
⦁ Yesterday's High/Low: Previous daily session extremes
⦁ Daily High/Low: Rolling 20-day period extremes
⦁ 4-Hour High/Low: 30-period extremes on 4H timeframe
⦁ 1-Hour High/Low: 50-period extremes on hourly timeframe
⦁ Recent High/Low: Current timeframe extremes (20-40 bars based on trading mode)
Entry Signal Generation Process
Buy Signal (Sell-Side Liquidity Sweep):
1. Price penetrates below a key support level by a minimum threshold (5-15 ticks depending on signal quality settings)
2. The penetration bar must show strong rejection with at least 30-50% of the candle's range closing back above the swept level
3. Multi-timeframe confirmation checks for structure shift on lower timeframe (break of recent swing high)
4. Confluence scoring system evaluates 7 factors, requiring minimum 3 confirmations:
⦁ Liquidity sweep detected (weighted 2x)
⦁ Higher timeframe bullish market structure
⦁ Lower timeframe bullish break of structure
⦁ Bullish Fair Value Gap presence
⦁ Bullish Order Block formation
⦁ ICT Kill Zone timing alignment
Sell Signal (Buy-Side Liquidity Sweep):
Mirror opposite of buy signal logic, detecting sweeps above resistance levels with bearish rejection.
Risk Management & Position Sizing
Stop Loss Placement:
⦁ Calculated using ATR (Average True Range) multiplied by an adaptive factor
⦁ Base multipliers: Scalping (1.0x), Day Trading (1.5x), Swing Trading (2.0x)
⦁ Further adjusted by signal quality: Conservative (-20%), Balanced (0%), Aggressive (+20%)
⦁ Positioned beyond the liquidity sweep point to avoid re-sweeping
Take Profit Targets:
⦁ TP1: 2.0R (Risk-Reward ratio)
⦁ TP2: 3.5R
⦁ TP3: 5.0R
⦁ All levels rounded to tick precision for accurate order placement
Advanced Features & Filters
Multi-Timeframe Structure Analysis
The system performs top-down analysis across three timeframes:
⦁ Higher Timeframe (HTF): Determines primary trend bias
⦁ Medium Timeframe (MTF): Confirms intermediate structure
⦁ Lower Timeframe (LTF): Identifies precise entry triggers
ICT Kill Zones
Incorporates time-based filtering for optimal trading sessions:
⦁ Asian Session (8PM-12AM UTC)
⦁ London Session (2AM-5AM UTC)
⦁ New York Session (7AM-10AM UTC)
⦁ London Close (10AM-12PM UTC)
Smart Money Concepts Integration
⦁ Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Identifies and displays price inefficiencies that act as magnets
⦁ Order Blocks: Marks institutional accumulation/distribution zones
⦁ Mitigation Detection: Automatically removes FVGs and Order Blocks when price fills them
⦁ Duplicate Sweep Prevention: 10-bar lookback prevents multiple signals at same level
Adaptive Trading Modes
Three pre-configured modes automatically adjust all parameters:
⦁ Scalping: Tight stops, quick targets, 15-minute to 1-hour focus
⦁ Day Trading: Balanced approach, 4-hour to daily analysis
⦁ Swing Trading: Wide stops, extended targets, daily to weekly perspective
⦁ Custom Mode: Full manual control of all parameters
Signal Quality Management
⦁ Conservative: Requires 5/7 confluence factors, tighter sweep threshold (5 ticks), 50% minimum rejection
⦁ Balanced: Standard 3/7 confluence, moderate threshold (10 ticks), 30% rejection
⦁ Aggressive: Only 2/7 confluence needed, wider threshold (15 ticks), 20% rejection
Visual Components & Dashboard
Real-Time Information Panel
Displays current market conditions including:
⦁ Active trading mode and quality settings
⦁ Timeframe configuration (HTF/MTF/LTF)
⦁ Market bias from higher timeframes
⦁ Current kill zone status
⦁ Liquidity sweep detection status
⦁ Confluence scoring for both directions
⦁ Risk parameters and targets
Trade Visualization
⦁ Entry, stop-loss, and three take-profit levels with precise price labels
⦁ Automatic cleanup when targets are hit or new signals appear
⦁ Maximum of one active setup displayed for chart clarity
⦁ Color-coded boxes for Fair Value Gaps and Order Blocks
How to Use This Indicator
Recommended Timeframes
⦁ Scalping Mode: 1-minute to 5-minute charts
⦁ Day Trading Mode: 5-minute to 15-minute charts
⦁ Swing Trading Mode: 1-hour to 4-hour charts
Optimal Market Conditions
⦁ Works best in ranging or trending markets with clear support/resistance levels
⦁ Most effective during high-liquidity sessions (London/New York overlap)
⦁ Avoid using during major news events unless specifically targeting news-driven sweeps
Signal Interpretation
1. Wait for triangle signal (up/down) with confluence score
2. Verify the swept level shown in the dashboard
3. Confirm risk-reward ratios match your trading plan
4. Enter at market or set limit order at indicated entry level
5. Place stop-loss and take-profit orders at displayed levels
Customization Tips
⦁ Adjust Signal Quality based on market volatility (Conservative for volatile, Aggressive for quiet)
⦁ Modify sweep threshold if getting too many/few signals
⦁ Toggle individual liquidity levels based on their relevance to your timeframe
⦁ Use Kill Zone filter for session-specific trading
Risk Disclaimer
This indicator identifies potential trade setups based on liquidity sweep patterns but does not guarantee profitable outcomes. Past performance does not indicate future results. Always use proper risk management and never risk more than you can afford to lose. The indicator should be used as part of a comprehensive trading plan that includes your own analysis and risk tolerance assessment.
Katz Candle Momentum Reversal Indicator v4.1Katz Candle Momentum Reversal Indicator (CMRI) v4.1
Overview
The Katz CMRI is a comprehensive trading indicator designed to identify trend direction, momentum shifts, and potential market reversals. It combines several different concepts into a single, cohesive visual tool.
At its core, the indicator uses a custom Line Break chart calculation to filter out market noise and a Heikin-Ashi-style formula to smooth price action. This combination helps to more clearly define the underlying trend. The main output is a dynamic, multi-colored trend line accompanied by various signals that appear directly on your chart. It's designed to help traders stay with the trend while also spotting key moments of expansion, contraction, and potential reversal.
How to Interpret the Indicator
The indicator has several key visual components:
Main Trend Line: This is the thick, central line that changes color.
Green: Indicates a bullish (upward) trend.
Red: Indicates a bearish (downward) trend.
Faded/Light Colors: Suggest a potential loss of momentum or a pullback within the trend.
White: Signals a significant break in the trend structure.
Trend Cloud: The shaded area between the main trend line and the white midline (mid). A green cloud shows the trend is above the midpoint, while a red cloud shows it's below.
Upper/Lower Bands: The aqua (Trend Up) and yellow (Trend Down) lines represent the recent highs and lows of the established trend. When price is pushing against these bands, it signals trend strength.
Background Colors:
Gray: A "Contraction Zone." This indicates that the trend is losing momentum and consolidating, warning of potential chop or a reversal.
Blue: An "Expansion Event." This highlights a sudden increase in momentum in the direction of the trend.
Signal Shapes:
Diamonds: These are the primary entry signals. A green diamond below a candle signals a potential long entry, while a red diamond above a candle signals a potential short entry.
⬆️⬇️ Arrows: These are secondary momentum signals. They can be used as confirmation that the trend is continuing.
Trading Strategy & Rules
This strategy uses the primary diamond signals for entries and trend changes for exits.
Long Trade (Buy) Rules
Entry: Wait for a green diamond to appear below the price candles. For confirmation, the main trend line should turn solid green, and the price should ideally be above the white midline.
Exit:
Stop Loss: Place a stop loss below the recent swing low or below the candle where the green diamond appeared.
Take Profit: Consider exiting the trade when a red diamond appears above the candles, signaling a potential trend reversal. Alternatively, a trader might exit if the background turns gray (Contraction Zone), indicating the bullish momentum has faded.
Short Trade (Sell) Rules
Entry: Wait for a red diamond to appear above the price candles. For confirmation, the main trend line should turn solid red, and the price should ideally be below the white midline.
Exit:
Stop Loss: Place a stop loss above the recent swing high or above the candle where the red diamond appeared.
Take Profit: Consider exiting the trade when a green diamond appears below the candles. A gray "Contraction Zone" can also serve as an early warning to exit as bearish momentum wanes.
Indicator Filters Explained
The indicator includes a "Trend Filter Type" setting that allows you to adjust its sensitivity. This can help reduce false signals in choppy markets.
Raw: This is the most sensitive setting. It will generate a trend change signal as soon as the basic conditions are met. Use this for scalping or in strongly trending markets, but be aware that it may produce more false signals.
OutStep: This is the default, balanced setting. It adds an extra layer of confirmation by requiring the main trend line itself to be moving in the direction of the new trend. For example, a new green signal will only be confirmed if the trend line's value is higher than its previous value. This helps filter out weak signals.
FullStep: This is the most conservative and filtered setting. It includes the "OutStep" logic and adds further conditions related to the upper and lower trend bands. This setting will produce the fewest signals, but they are generally the highest quality, making it suitable for swing trading or avoiding choppy market conditions.
Disclaimer
This indicator is a tool for technical analysis and should not be considered financial advice. All trading involves substantial risk, including the possible loss of principal. Past performance is not indicative of future results. The signals generated by this indicator are for educational and informational purposes only. You are solely responsible for any trading decisions you make. Use this indicator at your own risk.
Slingshot System By Dusty InvestmentsSlingshot System by Dusty Investments
What it is
A trend-following pullback system designed to time entries inside an established trend using a two-EMA “cloud” plus a Stochastic-RSI K oscillator.
It's the improved version of this script:
It plots:
An EMA cloud (trend and pullback filter)
Long/Short setup markers
“TAKE PROFIT” markers based on the oscillator
Core building blocks
Trend filter (EMA Cloud)
Fast EMA vs Slow EMA
Uptrend: Fast EMA > Slow EMA
Downtrend: Fast EMA < Slow EMA
The area between the two EMAs is filled (the “cloud”).
Cloud touch
The system requires price to touch/pierce the cloud with a small tolerance (configurable) to qualify a pullback.
Oscillator
K is a smoothed Stochastic of RSI (StochRSI K).
Oversold/Overbought levels default to 20/80, with a small tolerance kTol to avoid edge flicker.
Long logic (pullbacks within uptrend)
Purpose: Catch a second, “higher” dip during an uptrend.
Steps:
Candidate V1: While in uptrend, if K ≤ Oversold and price touches the EMA cloud, a V1 candidate is stored (the first dip).
Deal lock: When K later reaches ≥ Overbought in uptrend, the last V1 candidate is “locked in” as V1 for this cycle.
V2 search: After the lock, if another pullback appears (still in uptrend, K ≤ Oversold, price touching the cloud) and the low stays strictly above V1’s low, the script starts searching for the best V2 low (the lowest low of this second dip that remains above V1’s low).
Long signal: When K exits the oversold area, if a valid V2 was found above V1’s low, the indicator places a LONG label at that V2 low.
Take profit for Long: The “TAKE PROFIT” marker is shown when K crosses up through the Overbought level (≥ 80 by default).
Short logic (pullbacks within downtrend)
Purpose: Catch lower‑high pullbacks during a downtrend. The workflow is explicit and labeled:
D1 (first anchor): In downtrend, when price touches the cloud and K ≥ Overbought, mark D1 (the first high).
Valley: The first time K reaches ≤ Oversold after D1.
D2 (setup high): After the valley, the first bar that again touches the cloud with K ≥ Overbought and makes a strict Lower High vs D1 becomes D2. This opens a “window.”
Signal (live): From D2 until confirmation, the Signal marker follows the most recent swing high that forms on downtrend bars. It never tracks uptrend bars.
Confirmation: The first time K reaches ≤ Oversold after D2, the Signal is fixed at the last tracked high. From here the system waits for TP.
Take profit for Short: The “TAKE PROFIT” marker is shown when K crosses back above the Overbought level (≥ 80 by default).
Chaining (New D1): At TP, the prior D2 is promoted to “New D1,” allowing the next cycle to form if conditions repeat (D1 → Valley → D2).
What the labels mean
LONG: A validated long setup at the V2 low (second dip above the first dip’s low) within an uptrend.
SHORT: The live Short entry marker that moves to the latest downtrend swing high between D2 and confirmation; it gets fixed when K hits ≤ Oversold.
TAKE PROFIT: Suggestive exit markers tied to the K oscillator (Long TP when K crosses up 80; Short TP when K crosses up 80 after a Short confirmation).
Strict constraints baked in
No signals against the trend
Fast EMA / Slow EMA periods (trend and cloud)
RSI period for the StochRSI, Stochastic period, and K smoothing
Oversold/Overbought levels (defaults 20/80)
Cloud touch tolerance (percent)
kTol: tolerance around 20/80 thresholds for K
How to use it
Pick your market and use the 4H timeframe since you get the best results this way.
Trade with the trend:
Uptrend: Watch for LONG markers (V1 then V2 higher‑low behavior).
Downtrend: Watch the D1 → Valley → D2 sequence. The Signal marker appears after D2 and is fixed at confirmation; TP comes on K > 80.
Calibrate touchTolPct and kTol per symbol/timeframe to match how tightly you want to require cloud touches and K thresholds.
Risk management is up to you. The indicator outputs entries and TP suggestions; it does not set stops.
Notes
Signals confirm at bar close. During a Short window, the live Signal may move to newer downtrend highs; once confirmed, it becomes fixed.
The LONG side is symmetrical in spirit (pullback‑then‑higher‑low in uptrend), but naming uses V1/V2 instead of D1/D2.

Altcoins Exit Planner [SwissAlgo]Altcoins Exit Planner
Navigating Altcoin Exits: A Strategic Approach: Planning your exits before emotions take over
------------------------------------------------------------------
✅ THE PSYCHOLOGY OF ALTCOIN TRADING
Many traders face recurring challenges when managing altcoin positions:
The Greed Trap : Holding through euphoric rallies, hoping for unrealistic targets, only to watch gains evaporate during market reversals.
The Paralysis Problem : Sitting on large unrealized profits but unsure which assets to exit, when, or how much — leading to inaction.
The FOMO Cycle : Rotating into trending coins too early or too late, often abandoning solid positions prematurely.
Analysis Overload : Consuming endless opinions and indicators without ever forming a clear, actionable exit strategy.
These patterns often stem from a lack of structure and planning . Emotional decision-making in volatile markets can be costly — especially with altcoins.
Developing a systematic framework can help define exit levels in advance , aiming to reduce emotional bias and improve decision clarity. The goal is to build disciplined exit strategies based on predefined logic rather than reactive impulses.
------------------------------------------------------------------
✅ FEATURES & FUNCTIONALITY
This indicator is designed to provide traders with a structured framework for exit planning. It aims to reduce decision-making under pressure by offering a visual roadmap on the chart.
The tool provides an analysis of key data points, including:
Structured Analysis : The indicator evaluates asset strength, identifies potential market phases, and derives potential exit levels from historical price behavior. This analysis may help traders assess whether an asset shows characteristics of strength (e.g., potential for extended targets) or weakness (e.g., early exit signals).
Actionable Information : It generates specific price levels and quantities for consideration as part of a predefined exit strategy.
Proactive Alerts : The system includes configurable alerts that can notify users as prices approach these key levels, allowing time for preparation. This feature is intended to support a shift from reactive trading toward systematic, criteria-based exit planning.
------------------------------------------------------------------
✅ HOW IT WORKS - AUTOMATED ANALYSIS & PLANNING
This indicator is designed to automate key aspects of exit planning that would otherwise require manual effort:
Fibonacci Level Calculation & Plotting : Automatically identifies key historical cycle points (e.g., bear market lows, bull market highs, recent pullbacks) and calculates relevant Fibonacci levels (both "Fib Retracments" from previous cycle ATH to bear market bottom, and "Fib. extensions" - considering major price impulses/waves in current bull market). This may help reduce manual drawing errors and streamline target identification.
Automated Calculation and Plotting of "Fib. Retracement "Levels
(from ATH of previous cycle to bottom in bear market)
Fibonacci retracement levels are a popular tool used in technical analysis to identify potential support and resistance levels in a market. After a significant price move, traders look for the price to "retrace" or pull back to one of several key Fibonacci ratios of the original move before continuing in its original direction. The most common retracement levels are 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, and 78.6%. These levels are static horizontal lines on a chart, and their predictive power is based on the idea that they are "areas of interest" where a trend might pause or reverse.
Automated Calculation and Plotting of "Fib. Extension" Levels
(Price Impulses/Waves within current Bull Market)
Fibonacci extension levels are used to identify potential price targets or profit zones once a market has moved past its previous high or low. Unlike retracements, which measure a pullback, extensions project how far a trend might continue in the direction of its impulse move. They are typically used to anticipate where a wave or a rally might end and are based on ratios like 127.2%, 161.8%, 261.8%, and sometimes even higher. Extensions are a key tool for traders looking to set price targets for taking profits.
Coin Strength Assessment: Evaluates recovery performance relative to previous cycle peaks and classifies assets into four categories (Weak, Average, Strong, Outlier). Strength ratings may adjust dynamically based on momentum conditions — all derived from price data.
Market Phase Detection : Continuously monitors trend indicators, volume behavior, and altseason dynamics to estimate the current market phase. This may assist in contextualizing exit decisions without requiring manual phase analysis.
Exit Level Generation : Based on the asset’s strength classification and selected strategy (Conservative, Balanced, Aggressive), the system generates sequential exit levels with suggested percentages and quantities. Designed to support structured planning across three stages.
Signal Detection : Tracks multiple conditions — including price extensions, volume surges, momentum shifts, and cycle patterns — to generate alerts when predefined criteria are met.
Emergency Exit Detection : Scans for rare but high-risk scenarios (e.g., cycle top formations with multiple confluences) that may warrant immediate attention. Alerts are designed to highlight potential overextension during volatile phases.
Transfer Alerts : Calculates proximity to key exit zones and may issue early warnings to prepare for execution (e.g., moving assets from cold storage to exchanges), aiming to reduce last-minute decision pressure.
The script operates in two distinct modes:
Coin Analysis Mode Displays automatically-calculated Fibonacci levels, asset strength classification, market phase estimation, and contextual risk factors — designed to support structured analysis.
Exit Plan Mode Generates a customizable exit strategy with calculated price levels, suggested quantities, and potential outcome scenarios — aiming to assist with disciplined planning and reduce emotional bias.

Adaptive HMA Trendfilter & Profit SpikesShort Description
Adaptive trend-following filter using Hull Moving Average (HMA) slope.
Includes optional Keltner Channel entries/exits and dynamic spike-based take-profit markers (ATR/Z-Score).
Optional Fast HMA for early entry visualization (not included in logic).
USER GUIDE:
1) Quick Overview
Trend Filter: Slow HMA defines Bull / Bear / Sideways (via slope & direction).
Entries / Exits:
Entry: Color change of the slow HMA (red→green = Long, green→red = Short), optionally filtered by the Keltner basis.
Exit: Preferably via Keltner Band (Long: Close under Upper Band; Short: Close above Lower Band).
Fallback: exit on opposite HMA color change.
Take-Profit Spikes: Marks abnormal moves (ATR, Z-Score, or both) as discretionary TP signals.
Fast HMA (optional): Purely visual for early entry opportunities; not part of the core trading logic (see §5).
2) Adding & Basic Setup
Add the indicator to your chart.
Open Settings (gear icon) and configure:
HMA: Slow HMA Length = 55, Slope Lookback = 10, Slope Threshold = 0.20%.
Keltner: KC Length = 20, Multiplier = 1.5.
Spike-TP: Mode = ATR+Z, ATR Length = 14, Z Length = 20, Cooldown = 5.
Optionally: enable Fast HMA (e.g., length = 20).
3) Input Parameters – Key Controls
Slow HMA Length: Higher = smoother, fewer but cleaner signals.
Slope Lookback: How far back HMA slope is compared against.
Slope Threshold (%): Minimum slope to avoid “Sideways” regime.
KC Length / Multiplier: Width and reactivity of Keltner Channels.
Exits via KC Bands: Toggle on/off (recommended: on).
Entries only above/below KC Basis: Helps filter out chop.
Spike Mode: Choose ATR, Z, or ATR+Z (stricter, fewer signals).
Spikes only when in position: TP markers show only when you’re in a trade.
4) Entry & Exit Logic
Entries
Long: Slow HMA turns from red → green, and (if filter enabled) Close > KC Basis.
Short: Slow HMA turns from green → red, and (if filter enabled) Close < KC Basis.
Exits
KC Exit (recommended):
Long → crossunder(close, Upper KC) closes trade.
Short → crossover(close, Lower KC).
Fallback Exit: If KC Exits are off → exit on opposite HMA color change.
Spike-TP (Discretionary)
Marks unusually large deviations from HMA.
Use for partial profits or tightening stops.
⚠️ Not auto-traded — only marker/alert.
5) Early Entry Opportunities (Fast HMA Cross – visual only)
The script can optionally display a Fast HMA (e.g., 20) alongside the Slow HMA (e.g., 55).
Bullish early hint: Fast HMA crosses above Slow HMA, or stays above, before the Slow HMA officially turns green.
Bearish early hint: opposite.
⚠️ These signals are not part of the built-in logic — they are purely discretionary:
Advantage: Earlier entries, more profit potential.
Risk: Higher chance of whipsaws.
Practical workflow (early long entry):
Fast HMA crosses above Slow HMA AND Close > KC Basis.
Enter small position with tight stop (under KC Basis or HMA swing).
Once Slow HMA confirms green → add to position or trail stop tighter.
6) Recommended Presets
Crypto (1h/2h):
HMA: 55 / 10 / 0.20–0.30%
KC: 20 / 1.5–1.8
Spikes: ATR+Z, ATR=14, Z=20, Cooldown 5
FX (1h/4h):
HMA: 55 / 8–10 / 0.10–0.25%
KC: 20 / 1.2–1.5
Indices (15m/1h):
HMA: 50–60 / 8–12 / 0.15–0.30%
KC: 20 / 1.3–1.6
Fine-tuning:
Too noisy? → Raise slope threshold or increase HMA length.
Too sluggish? → Lower slope threshold or shorten HMA length.
7) Alerts – Best Practice
Long/Short Entry – get notified when trend color switches & KC filter is valid.
Long/Short Exit – for KC exits or fallback exits.
Long/Short Spike TP – for discretionary profit-taking.
Set via TradingView: Create Alert → Select this indicator → choose condition.
8) Common Pitfalls & Tips
Too many false signals?
Raise slope threshold (more “Sideways” filtering).
Enable KC filter for entries.
Entries too late?
Use Fast HMA cross for early discretionary entries.
Or lower slope threshold slightly.
Spikes too rare/frequent?
More frequent → ATR mode or lower ATR multiplier / Z-threshold.
Rarer but stronger → ATR+Z with higher thresholds.
9) Example Playbook (Long Trade)
Regime: Slow HMA still red, Fast HMA crosses upward (early hint).
Filter: Close > KC Basis.
Early Entry: Small size, stop below KC Basis or recent swing low.
Confirmation: Slow HMA turns green → scale up or trail stop.
Management: Partial profits at Spike-TP marker; full exit at KC upper band break.
