Kimchi Premium Dashboard (Final)📜 Kimchi Premium Dashboard (Live & Daily Log)
🚀 Summary
This indicator is an all-in-one dashboard that tracks the real-time price difference of USDT (Tether) between a Korean exchange (Upbit) and a global exchange (Coinbase). This difference is commonly known as the "Kimchi Premium" (Kimp) or "Reverse Premium."
Going beyond a simple premium display, this tool is designed to assist with arbitrage and swing trading strategies by providing intuitive visualizations, a smart multi-tier alert system, and a daily data logging feature.
✨ Key Features
Real-time Premium Calculation: Accurately calculates the premium in percentage (%) based on the USDT prices from Upbit and Coinbase, and the live USD/KRW exchange rate.
Intuitive Zone Visualization: Instantly identify whether the premium is in a Buy, Sell, or Neutral zone through dynamic background coloring.
Smart Alert System: Delivers systematic alerts for key events like the initial -2.0% entry, a critical -2.5% breach, and subsequent new lows, all without unnecessary spam. (Can be toggled ON/OFF in settings).
Hybrid Dashboard: Features both a real-time status label and a daily log that records the day's significant low points.
📊 Visual Components Explained
Lines
🔵 Blue Line (Premium Line): This is the core real-time premium value (%). The position of this line is most important.
🟠 Orange Line (SMA Line): This is the moving average of the premium. It helps identify the overall trend beyond short-term volatility.
Zones
🟩 Green Zone (Buy Zone): This area, typically below -2.0%, indicates a "Reverse Premium" where the Korean price is significantly lower than the global price. It represents a potential buying opportunity for arbitrage.
🟥 Red Zone (Kimp Zone): This area, typically above 0%, indicates a "Kimchi Premium" where the Korean price is higher. This represents a potential selling or profit-taking opportunity.
Dashboard
Live Status Label: Located on the right, this label displays the precise premium value, the current zone status (Buy/Sell/Neutral), and the SMA value in real-time.
Today's Lows Log: Located on the left, this table records the time and level of significant lows (below -2.5%) broken during the day. It resets automatically at midnight (UTC).
🔔 Alerts & How to Use
This indicator provides a systematic 3-tier alert system designed for arbitrage strategies. (Must be enabled via "Enable Real-time Alerts?" in settings).
✅ Good Opportunity (-2.0%): A one-time alert triggers upon the first entry into the initial buying zone.
🚨 BIG Opportunity (-2.5%): A distinct, high-priority alert triggers when this more critical level is breached.
📞 Granular Tracking (Below -2.5%): Receive alerts for each new low in -0.1% increments for precise tracking during the best opportunities.
A recommended hybrid strategy is to keep alerts off for daily review using the "Today's Lows Log," and turn them on only during critical periods for real-time action.

cd_sweep&cisd_CxOverview:
When the price is at a significant zone/level on a higher time frame (HTF), and it sweeps (breaks through and then closes back below/above) the high or low of the previous HTF candle, it is common to look for a Change in State of Delivery (CISD) on a lower time frame (LTF) to enter a trade.
This model can be summarized as:
HTF Sweep → LTF CISD (Optional: SMT / Divergences)
________________________________________
Working Principle & Details:
1. The indicator monitors price action on the selected HTF and tracks any sweep (violation) of the previous HTF candle's high or low. Simultaneously, it identifies CISD levels on the LTF. If SMT is enabled, it will appear as a label on the chart.
When both HTF sweep and LTF CISD conditions are met, the indicator marks the chart at the open of the next candle and triggers an alert if set.
CISD levels are tracked and updated whenever a new HTF high/low is formed.
2. The indicator monitors the formation of entry models on up to six selected pairs, displaying results in two separate tables:
o HTF Sweep Query Table: Monitors live HTF candles and reports pairs that meet the sweep condition.
o CISD Table: Displays the pairs where a valid entry model has formed. A "🔥" symbol indicates the condition has occurred.
3. Bias Visualization:
Based on the selected HTF, a visual band is shown at the bottom of the chart using the chosen bullish/bearish colors.
Bias is determined by:
o Candle closing above/below the previous one suggesting continuation.
o A failed close after a sweep implying potential reversal.
4. HTF Candles:
Displays HTF candles based on the user-defined time frame.
5. Optional SMT (Smart Money Technique):
Must be enabled in the menu and requires the correlated pair to be entered correctly for accurate results.
Displayed only as a visual confirmation, not a requirement for model formation.
If the currently open symbol sweeps the previous candle while the correlated symbol does not (or vice versa), an "SMT" label appears on the chart.
6. Color & Table Positioning:
Controlled via the settings menu.
________________________________________
Warnings:
• The indicator only marks CISDs that form at HTF high/low zones.
• Entering every time the model forms does not guarantee profitability.
• Waiting for the model to appear at significant HTF levels/zones increases the likelihood of success.
• HTF and LTF selections should follow commonly accepted combinations or user-tested time frames.
• If you want to trigger alerts only for symbols entered in the indicator, ensure the "Use indicator alerts" option is enabled.
• To set alerts for the TradingView watchlist instead, disable the "Use indicator alerts" option.

Trend Breakout Description:
This Pine Script indicator identifies pivot high and pivot low points based on user-defined left and right candle legs, detecting breakouts to signal potential trend changes. It plots horizontal lines at pivot highs (lime) and pivot lows (red), marking breakout signals with labels ("Br") when the price crosses above a pivot high or below a pivot low. The indicator also changes the background color to reflect the trend (green for uptrend, red for downtrend) with adjustable transparency. The indicator primarily focuses on recognizing specific pivot patterns to define trends and generate trading signals.
How It Works
• Pivot Detection: Identifies pivot highs and lows using configurable left (Left side Pivot Candle) and right (Right side Pivot Candle) periods.
• Pivot Highs (PH): A pivot high is identified when a candle's high is greater than a specified number of preceding candles (left leg) and succeeding candles (right leg).
• Pivot Lows (PL): Similarly, a pivot low is identified when a candle's low is less than a specified number of preceding and succeeding candles.
The script then tracks the last three pivot highs and pivot lows.
Trend Detection and Breakouts
1. High Line (Resistance): When a middle pivot high (out of the three tracked) is higher than both the previous and the next pivot high, a lime green line is drawn from that pivot high. This line acts as a dynamic resistance level.
2. Low Line (Support): Conversely, when a middle pivot low is lower than both the previous and the next pivot low, a red line is drawn from that pivot low. This line acts as a dynamic support level.
________________________________________
Trading Signals : The indicator generates signals based on price crossing these dynamically drawn lines .
• Long Signal (Uptrend):
o A "Long" signal is triggered when the close price crosses above the current high line (resistance), and the indicator is not already in an uptrend.
o When a long signal occurs, the background turns green, and the high line becomes dotted and thinner. A "Br" (Breakout) label appears below the candle.
• Short Signal (Downtrend):
o A "Short" signal is triggered when the close price crosses below the current low line (support), and the indicator is not already in a downtrend.
o When a short signal occurs, the background turns red, and the low line becomes dotted and thinner. A "Br" (Breakout) label appears above the candle.
________________________________________
Customizable Settings
The indicator provides three user-adjustable inputs:
• Right Side Pivot Candle (fpivotLeg): This setting (default 10) determines the number of candles to the right that must have lower highs/higher lows for a pivot to be confirmed.
• Left Side Pivot Candle (bpivotLeg): This setting (default 15) determines the number of candles to the left that must have lower highs/higher lows for a pivot to be confirmed.
• Adjust Color Visualization (Colortrnp): This setting (default 85) controls the transparency of the background color changes, allowing you to adjust how prominently the green (uptrend) and red (downtrend) backgrounds are displayed.
________________________________________
How to Use It
This indicator can be used by traders to:
• Identify potential reversals: The formation of new pivot highs and lows can signal shifts in market direction.
• Spot breakout opportunities: Crossing above the high line or below the low line can indicate the start of a new trend or the continuation of an existing one.
• Confirm trend strength: The presence and extension of the high and low lines can provide visual cues about the prevailing trend.
• Ideal for swing traders or trend-following strategies.
• Use the breakout labels ("Br") and background color to confirm trend direction.
• Adjust pivot leg inputs to fine-tune sensitivity for different timeframes or assets.
• Customize transparency to suit chart readability.
Example:
On a breakout above a pivot high, a green "Br" label appears, the background turns green, and the pivot line becomes dotted. This signals a potential uptrend, helping traders identify entry points or trend confirmations.
Disclaimer: No indicator guarantees profits. Always use this indicator in conjunction with other analysis methods and proper risk management.
Angled Gann Time-Price Squares with S/RThis is a Pine Script indicator that implements Angled Gann Time-Price Squares based on W.D. Gann's trading theory. Here's what it does:
Core Functionality
Detects pivot highs and lows using a configurable lookback period
Creates angled squares by connecting pivot points to current price action when specific geometric conditions are met
Validates square formation by checking if the price movement follows proper Gann angles (typically 45°, 135°, etc.) within a tolerance range
Key Features
Real-time square tracking: Shows both completed squares and forming squares in progress
Support/Resistance levels: Automatically generates S/R lines from:
Square edge extensions
Diagonal extensions (pivot centers)
Quarter/half levels within squares (25%, 50%, 75%)
Visual feedback: Color-coded squares (green for up, red for down, orange for forming)
Projection lines: Predicts where squares might complete based on Gann angle theory
Gann Theory Application
The indicator follows Gann's principle that time and price move in geometric harmony. It looks for price movements that form perfect squares when plotted on a chart, where the diagonal of the square represents the natural flow of price and time at specific angles.
The generated support/resistance levels are particularly valuable because they're based on completed geometric patterns rather than just horizontal price levels, making them potentially more significant according to Gann methodology.
Morning Structure – Live 30 Min Range📝 Description:
This indicator captures the morning price structure by tracking the high and low during the first 30 minutes after market open (default: 9:30 AM to 10:00 AM, New York time).
🔧 How it works:
At market open, it begins tracking the highest high and lowest low
The high and low lines are dynamic and update in real-time during the first 30 minutes
Once the 30-minute range completes, the lines freeze at their final values
Lines extend horizontally across the rest of the session to mark the "Morning Range"
✅ Key Features:
Tracks live price action during the morning session
Freezes the structure after 30 minutes (or user-defined)
Automatically resets each new trading day
Built-in timezone setting (America/New_York) to align with standard U.S. market hours
Clean visual lines that scroll naturally with the chart
⚙️ Use Cases:
Identify morning breakout zones
Define support and resistance early in the session
Combine with breakout, fade, or range-trading strategies
⚠️ Note:
This version does not include alerts or labels, by design (clean and focused).
Those can be added easily for custom strategies.
Wavelet-Trend ML Integration [Alpha Extract]Alpha-Extract Volatility Quality Indicator
The Alpha-Extract Volatility Quality (AVQ) Indicator provides traders with deep insights into market volatility by measuring the directional strength of price movements. This sophisticated momentum-based tool helps identify overbought and oversold conditions, offering actionable buy and sell signals based on volatility trends and standard deviation bands.
🔶 CALCULATION
The indicator processes volatility quality data through a series of analytical steps:
Bar Range Calculation: Measures true range (TR) to capture price volatility.
Directional Weighting: Applies directional bias (positive for bullish candles, negative for bearish) to the true range.
VQI Computation: Uses an exponential moving average (EMA) of weighted volatility to derive the Volatility Quality Index (VQI).
Smoothing: Applies an additional EMA to smooth the VQI for clearer signals.
Normalization: Optionally normalizes VQI to a -100/+100 scale based on historical highs and lows.
Standard Deviation Bands: Calculates three upper and lower bands using standard deviation multipliers for volatility thresholds.
Signal Generation: Produces overbought/oversold signals when VQI reaches extreme levels (±200 in normalized mode).
Formula:
Bar Range = True Range (TR)
Weighted Volatility = Bar Range × (Close > Open ? 1 : Close < Open ? -1 : 0)
VQI Raw = EMA(Weighted Volatility, VQI Length)
VQI Smoothed = EMA(VQI Raw, Smoothing Length)
VQI Normalized = ((VQI Smoothed - Lowest VQI) / (Highest VQI - Lowest VQI) - 0.5) × 200
Upper Band N = VQI Smoothed + (StdDev(VQI Smoothed, VQI Length) × Multiplier N)
Lower Band N = VQI Smoothed - (StdDev(VQI Smoothed, VQI Length) × Multiplier N)
🔶 DETAILS
Visual Features:
VQI Plot: Displays VQI as a line or histogram (lime for positive, red for negative).
Standard Deviation Bands: Plots three upper and lower bands (teal for upper, grayscale for lower) to indicate volatility thresholds.
Reference Levels: Horizontal lines at 0 (neutral), +100, and -100 (in normalized mode) for context.
Zone Highlighting: Overbought (⋎ above bars) and oversold (⋏ below bars) signals for extreme VQI levels (±200 in normalized mode).
Candle Coloring: Optional candle overlay colored by VQI direction (lime for positive, red for negative).
Interpretation:
VQI ≥ 200 (Normalized): Overbought condition, strong sell signal.
VQI 100–200: High volatility, potential selling opportunity.
VQI 0–100: Neutral bullish momentum.
VQI 0 to -100: Neutral bearish momentum.
VQI -100 to -200: High volatility, strong bearish momentum.
VQI ≤ -200 (Normalized): Oversold condition, strong buy signal.
🔶 EXAMPLES
Overbought Signal Detection: When VQI exceeds 200 (normalized), the indicator flags potential market tops with a red ⋎ symbol.
Example: During strong uptrends, VQI reaching 200 has historically preceded corrections, allowing traders to secure profits.
Oversold Signal Detection: When VQI falls below -200 (normalized), a lime ⋏ symbol highlights potential buying opportunities.
Example: In bearish markets, VQI dropping below -200 has marked reversal points for profitable long entries.
Volatility Trend Tracking: The VQI plot and bands help traders visualize shifts in market momentum.
Example: A rising VQI crossing above zero with widening bands indicates strengthening bullish momentum, guiding traders to hold or enter long positions.
Dynamic Support/Resistance: Standard deviation bands act as dynamic volatility thresholds during price movements.
Example: Price reversals often occur near the third standard deviation bands, providing reliable entry/exit points during volatile periods.
🔶 SETTINGS
Customization Options:
VQI Length: Adjust the EMA period for VQI calculation (default: 14, range: 1–50).
Smoothing Length: Set the EMA period for smoothing (default: 5, range: 1–50).
Standard Deviation Multipliers: Customize multipliers for bands (defaults: 1.0, 2.0, 3.0).
Normalization: Toggle normalization to -100/+100 scale and adjust lookback period (default: 200, min: 50).
Display Style: Switch between line or histogram plot for VQI.
Candle Overlay: Enable/disable VQI-colored candles (lime for positive, red for negative).
The Alpha-Extract Volatility Quality Indicator empowers traders with a robust tool to navigate market volatility.

Magnificent 7 OscillatorThe Magnificent 7 Oscillator is a sophisticated momentum-based technical indicator designed to analyze the collective performance of the seven largest technology companies in the U.S. stock market (Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, NVIDIA, Tesla, and Meta). This indicator incorporates established momentum factor research and provides three distinct analytical modes: absolute momentum tracking, equal-weighted market comparison, and relative performance analysis. The tool integrates five different oscillator methodologies and includes advanced breadth analysis capabilities.
Theoretical Foundation
Momentum Factor Research
The indicator's foundation rests on seminal momentum research in financial markets. Jegadeesh and Titman (1993) demonstrated that stocks with strong price performance over 3-12 month periods tend to continue outperforming in subsequent periods¹. This momentum effect was later incorporated into formal factor models by Carhart (1997), who extended the Fama-French three-factor model to include a momentum factor (UMD - Up Minus Down)².
The momentum calculation methodology follows the academic standard:
Momentum(t) = / P(t-n) × 100
Where P(t) is the current price and n is the lookback period.
The focus on the "Magnificent 7" stocks reflects the increasing market concentration observed in recent years. Fama and French (2015) noted that a small number of large-cap stocks can drive significant market movements due to their substantial index weights³. The combined market capitalization of these seven companies often exceeds 25% of the total S&P 500, making their collective momentum a critical market indicator.
Indicator Architecture
Core Components
1. Data Collection and Processing
The indicator employs robust data collection with error handling for missing or invalid security data. Each stock's momentum is calculated independently using the specified lookback period (default: 14 periods).
2. Composite Oscillator Calculation
Following Fama-French factor construction methodology, the indicator offers two weighting schemes:
- Equal Weight: Each active stock receives identical weighting (1/n)
- Market Cap Weight: Reserved for future enhancement
3. Oscillator Transformation Functions
The indicator provides five distinct oscillator types, each with established technical analysis foundations:
a) Momentum Oscillator (Default)
- Pure rate-of-change calculation
- Centered around zero
- Direct implementation of Jegadeesh & Titman methodology
b) RSI (Relative Strength Index)
- Wilder's (1978) relative strength methodology
- Transformed to center around zero for consistency
- Scale: -50 to +50
c) Stochastic Oscillator
- George Lane's %K methodology
- Measures current position within recent range
- Transformed to center around zero
d) Williams %R
- Larry Williams' range-based oscillator
- Inverse stochastic calculation
- Adjusted for zero-centered display
e) CCI (Commodity Channel Index)
- Donald Lambert's mean reversion indicator
- Measures deviation from moving average
- Scaled for optimal visualization
Operational Modes
Mode 1: Magnificent 7 Analysis
Tracks the collective momentum of the seven constituent stocks. This mode is optimal for:
- Technology sector analysis
- Growth stock momentum assessment
- Large-cap performance tracking
Mode 2: S&P 500 Equal Weight Comparison
Analyzes momentum using an equal-weighted S&P 500 reference (typically RSP ETF). This mode provides:
- Broader market momentum context
- Size-neutral market analysis
- Comparison baseline for relative performance
Mode 3: Relative Performance Analysis
Calculates the momentum differential between Magnificent 7 and S&P 500 Equal Weight. This mode enables:
- Sector rotation analysis
- Style factor assessment (Growth vs. Value)
- Relative strength identification
Formula: Relative Performance = MAG7_Momentum - SP500EW_Momentum
Signal Generation and Thresholds
Signal Classification
The indicator generates three signal states:
- Bullish: Oscillator > Upper Threshold (default: +2.0%)
- Bearish: Oscillator < Lower Threshold (default: -2.0%)
- Neutral: Oscillator between thresholds
Relative Performance Signals
In relative performance mode, specialized thresholds apply:
- Outperformance: Relative momentum > +1.0%
- Underperformance: Relative momentum < -1.0%
Alert System
Comprehensive alert conditions include:
- Threshold crossovers (bullish/bearish signals)
- Zero-line crosses (momentum direction changes)
- Relative performance shifts
- Breadth Analysis Component
The indicator incorporates market breadth analysis, calculating the percentage of constituent stocks with positive momentum. This feature provides insights into:
- Strong Breadth (>60%): Broad-based momentum
- Weak Breadth (<40%): Narrow momentum leadership
- Mixed Breadth (40-60%): Neutral momentum distribution
Visual Design and User Interface
Theme-Adaptive Display
The indicator automatically adjusts color schemes for dark and light chart themes, ensuring optimal visibility across different user preferences.
Professional Data Table
A comprehensive data table displays:
- Current oscillator value and percentage
- Active mode and oscillator type
- Signal status and strength
- Component breakdowns (in relative performance mode)
- Breadth percentage
- Active threshold levels
Custom Color Options
Users can override default colors with custom selections for:
- Neutral conditions (default: Material Blue)
- Bullish signals (default: Material Green)
- Bearish signals (default: Material Red)
Practical Applications
Portfolio Management
- Sector Allocation: Use relative performance mode to time technology sector exposure
- Risk Management: Monitor breadth deterioration as early warning signal
- Entry/Exit Timing: Utilize threshold crossovers for position sizing decisions
Market Analysis
- Trend Identification: Zero-line crosses indicate momentum regime changes
- Divergence Analysis: Compare MAG7 performance against broader market
- Volatility Assessment: Oscillator range and frequency provide volatility insights
Strategy Development
- Factor Timing: Implement growth factor timing strategies
- Momentum Strategies: Develop systematic momentum-based approaches
- Risk Parity: Use breadth metrics for risk-adjusted portfolio construction
Configuration Guidelines
Parameter Selection
- Momentum Period (5-100): Shorter periods (5-20) for tactical analysis, longer periods (50-100) for strategic assessment
- Smoothing Period (1-50): Higher values reduce noise but increase lag
- Thresholds: Adjust based on historical volatility and strategy requirements
Timeframe Considerations
- Daily Charts: Optimal for swing trading and medium-term analysis
- Weekly Charts: Suitable for long-term trend analysis
- Intraday Charts: Useful for short-term tactical decisions
Limitations and Considerations
Market Concentration Risk
The indicator's focus on seven stocks creates concentration risk. During periods of significant rotation away from large-cap technology stocks, the indicator may not represent broader market conditions.
Momentum Persistence
While momentum effects are well-documented, they are not permanent. Jegadeesh and Titman (1993) noted momentum reversal effects over longer time horizons (2-5 years).
Correlation Dynamics
During market stress, correlations among the constituent stocks may increase, reducing the diversification benefits and potentially amplifying signal intensity.
Performance Metrics and Backtesting
The indicator includes hidden plots for comprehensive backtesting:
- Individual stock momentum values
- Composite breadth percentage
- S&P 500 Equal Weight momentum
- Relative performance calculations
These metrics enable quantitative strategy development and historical performance analysis.

Bounce Zone📘 Bounce Zone – Indicator Description
The "Bounce Zone" indicator is a custom tool designed to highlight potential reversal zones on the chart based on volume exhaustion and price structure. It identifies sequences of candles with low volume activity and marks key price levels that could act as "bounce zones", where price is likely to react.
🔍 How It Works
Volume Analysis:
The indicator calculates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of volume (default: 20 periods).
It looks for at least 6 consecutive candles (configurable) where the volume is below this volume SMA.
Color Consistency:
The candles must all be of the same color:
Green candles (bullish) for potential downward bounce zones.
Red candles (bearish) for potential upward bounce zones.
Zone Detection:
When a valid sequence is found:
For green candles: it draws a horizontal line at the low of the last red candle before the sequence.
For red candles: it draws a horizontal line at the high of the last green candle before the sequence.
Bounce Tracking:
Each horizontal line remains on the chart until it is touched twice by price (high or low depending on direction).
After two touches, the line is automatically removed, indicating the zone has fulfilled its purpose.
📈 Use Cases
Identify areas of price exhaustion after strong directional pushes.
Spot liquidity zones where institutions might step in.
Combine with candlestick confirmation for reversal trades.
Useful in both trending and range-bound markets for entry or exit signals.
⚙️ Parameters
min_consecutive: Minimum number of consecutive low-volume candles of the same color (default: 6).
vol_ma_len: Length of the volume moving average (default: 20).
🧠 Notes
The indicator does not repaint and is based purely on historical candle and volume structure.
Designed for manual strategy confirmation or support for algorithmic setups.
atr stop loss for double SMA v6Strategy Name
atr stop loss for double SMA v6
Credit: This v6 update is based on Daveatt’s “BEST ATR Stop Multiple Strategy.”
Core Logic
Entry: Go long when the 15-period SMA crosses above the 45-period SMA; go short on the inverse cross.
Stop-Loss: On entry, compute ATR(14)×2.0 and set a fixed stop at entry ± that amount. Stop remains static until hit.
Trend Tracking: Uses barssince() to ensure only one active long or short position; stop is only active while that trend persists.
Visualization
Plots fast/slow SMA lines in teal/orange.
On each entry bar, displays a label showing “ATR value” and “ATR×multiple” positioned at the 30-bar low (long) or high (short).
Draws an “×” at the stop-price level in green (long) or red (short) while the position is open.
Execution Settings
Initial Capital: $100 000, Size = 100 shares per trade.
Commission: 0.075% per trade.
Pyramiding: 1.
Calculations: Only on bar close (no intra-bar ticks).
Usage Notes
Static ATR stop adapts to volatility but does not trail.
Ideal for trending, liquid markets (stocks, futures, FX).
Adjust SMA lengths or ATR multiple for faster/slower signals.
Commodity Trend Reactor [BigBeluga]
🔵 OVERVIEW
A dynamic trend-following oscillator built around the classic CCI, enhanced with intelligent price tracking and reversal signals.
Commodity Trend Reactor extends the traditional Commodity Channel Index (CCI) by integrating trend-trailing logic and reactive reversal markers. It visualizes trend direction using a trailing stop system and highlights potential exhaustion zones when CCI exceeds extreme thresholds. This dual-level system makes it ideal for both trend confirmation and mean-reversion alerts.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Based on the CCI (Commodity Channel Index) oscillator, which measures deviation from the average price.
Trend bias is determined by whether CCI is above or below user-defined thresholds.
Trailing price bands are used to lock in trend direction visually on the main chart.
Extreme values beyond ±200 are treated as potential reversal zones.
🔵 FEATURES\
CCI-Based Trend Shifts:
Triggers a bullish bias when CCI crosses above the upper threshold, and bearish when it crosses below the lower threshold.
Adaptive Trailing Stops:
In bullish mode, a trailing stop tracks the lowest price; in bearish mode, it tracks the highest.
Top & Bottom Markers:
When CCI surpasses +200 or drops below -200, it plots colored squares both on the oscillator and on price, marking potential reversal zones.
Background Highlights:
Each time a trend shift occurs, the background is softly colored (lime for bullish, orange for bearish) to highlight the change.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use the oscillator to monitor when CCI crosses above or below threshold values to detect trend activation.
Enter trades in the direction of the trailing band once the trend bias is confirmed.
Watch for +200 and -200 square markers as warnings of potential mean reversals.
Use trailing stop areas as dynamic support/resistance to manage stop loss and exit strategies.
The background color changes offer clean confirmation of trend transitions on chart.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Commodity Trend Reactor transforms the simple CCI into a complete trend-reactive framework. With real-time trailing logic and clear reversal alerts, it serves both momentum traders and contrarian scalpers alike. Whether you’re trading breakouts or anticipating mean reversions, this indicator provides clarity and structure to your decision-making.
MVRV-Z For Loop🧠 Overview
MVRV-Z For Loop is a trend-following indicator that applies a custom directional for-loop logic to the MVRV Z-score. By evaluating the number of consecutive Z-score improvements or deteriorations over time, it identifies sustained directional pressure in Bitcoin’s on-chain trend — helping traders align with prevailing market strength rather than reacting to single-point extremes.
🧩 Key Features
Loop-Based Trend Filter: Applies a running comparison loop to assess whether MVRV-Z has been consistently strengthening or weakening.
Directional Scoring System: Each upward movement contributes positively, and each downward movement negatively, producing a cumulative trend score.
Z-Scored MVRV: Leverages on-chain valuation via the Market Cap to Realized Cap ratio, normalized using a long-term rolling average and standard deviation.
Custom Thresholds: User-defined thresholds for long and short signals based on trend score magnitude.
Dynamic Candle Coloring: Visually reinforces trend state with aqua for bullish and red for bearish environments.
🔍 How It Works
Z-score Transformation: The MVRV ratio is normalized over a long lookback (default 1050 days), creating a standardized valuation signal.
For-Loop Engine: A directional loop compares the current MVRV-Z value to previous values within a defined range (start to end).
If today’s value is higher than ma , it adds +1 to the score; otherwise, it subtracts -1.
This loop effectively measures momentum consistency rather than magnitude alone.
Signal Logic:
A Long signal is triggered when the cumulative trend score exceeds the long_threshold.
A Short signal is triggered when the score drops below the short_threshold.
State Variable (CD): Tracks the market regime (1 = long, -1 = short), updating only when a valid condition is met.
🔁 Use Cases & Applications
Trend Confirmation Tool: Helps traders assess whether a directional move has been sustained over time before committing.
Momentum Alignment: Filters out short-term noise by scoring consistency in MVRV-Z movement rather than relying on single-bar reversals.
Best Suited for BTC: This indicator is specifically built using Bitcoin’s Market Cap and Realized Cap metrics, making it ideal for BTC trend tracking.
✅ Conclusion
MVRV-Z For Loop transforms the traditional MVRV Z-score into a trend-following signal using a cumulative scoring approach. It excels in highlighting sustained directional strength and avoids premature entries during valuation whipsaws. This makes it a strong tool for traders looking to stay on the right side of the trend without overreacting to short-term fluctuations.

ETH to RTH Gap DetectorETH to RTH Gap Detector
What It Does
This indicator identifies and tracks custom-defined gaps that form between Extended Trading Hours (ETH) and Regular Trading Hours (RTH). Unlike traditional gap definitions, this indicator uses a specialized approach - defining up gaps as the space between previous session close high to current session initial balance low, and down gaps as the space from previous session close low to current session initial balance high. Each detected gap is monitored until it's touched by price.
Key Features
Detects custom-defined ETH-RTH gaps based on previous session close and current session initial balance
Automatically identifies both up gaps and down gaps
Visualizes gaps with color-coded boxes that extend until touched
Tracks when gaps are filled (when price touches the gap area)
Offers multiple display options for filled gaps (color change, border only, pattern, or delete)
Provides comprehensive statistics including total gaps, up/down ratio, and touched gap percentage
Includes customizable alert system for real-time gap filling notifications
Features toggle options for dashboard visibility and weekend sessions
Uses time-based box coordinates to avoid common TradingView drawing limitations
How To Use It
Configure Session Times : Set your preferred RTH hours and timezone (default 9:30-16:00 America/New York)
Set Initial Balance Period : Adjust the initial balance period (default 30 minutes) for gap detection sensitivity
Monitor Gap Formation : The indicator automatically detects gaps between the previous session close and current session IB
Watch For Gap Fills : Gaps change appearance or disappear when price touches them, based on your selected style
Check Statistics : View the dashboard to see total gaps, directional distribution, and touched percentage

Weekend Session Toggle : Option to include or exclude weekend trading sessions
Technical Details
The indicator uses time-based coordinates (xloc.bar_time) to prevent "bar index too far" errors
Gap boxes are intelligently limited to avoid TradingView's 500-bar drawing limitation
Box creation and fill detection use proper range intersection logic for accuracy
Session detection is handled using TradingView's session string format for reliability
Initial balance detection is precisely calculated based on time difference
Statistics calculations exclude zero-division scenarios for stability
This indicator works best on futures markets with extended and regular trading hours, especially indices (ES, NQ, RTY) and commodities. Performs well on timeframes from 1-minute to 1-hour.
What Makes It Different
Most gap indicators focus on traditional open-to-previous-close gaps, but this tool offers a specialized definition more relevant to ETH/RTH transitions. By using the initial balance period to define gap edges, it captures meaningful price discrepancies that often provide trading opportunities. The indicator combines sophisticated gap detection logic with clean visualization and comprehensive tracking statistics. The customizable fill styles and integrated alert system make it practical for both chart analysis and active trading scenarios.
FVG [TakingProphets]🧠 Purpose
This indicator is built for traders applying Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology. It detects and manages Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) — price imbalances that often act as future reaction zones. It also highlights New Day Opening Gaps (NDOGs) and New Week Opening Gaps (NWOGs) that frequently play a role in early-session price behavior.
📚 What is a Fair Value Gap?
A Fair Value Gap forms when price moves rapidly, skipping over a portion of the chart between three candles — typically between the high of the first candle and the low of the third. These zones are considered inefficient, meaning institutions may return to them later to:
-Rebalance unfilled orders
-Enter or scale into positions
-Engineer liquidity with minimal slippage
In ICT methodology, FVGs are seen as both entry zones and targets, depending on market structure and context.
⚙️ How It Works
-This script automatically identifies and manages valid FVGs using the following logic:
-Bullish FVGs: When the low of the current candle is above the high from two candles ago
-Bearish FVGs: When the high of the current candle is below the body of two candles ago
-Minimum Gap Filter: Gaps must be larger than 0.05% of price
-Combine Consecutive Gaps (optional): Merges adjacent gaps of the same type
-Consequent Encroachment Line (optional): Plots the midpoint of each gap
-NDOG/NWOG Tracking: Labels gaps created during the 5–6 PM session transition
-Automatic Invalidation: Gaps are removed once price closes beyond their boundary
🎯 Practical Use
-Use unmitigated FVGs as potential entry points or targets
-Monitor NDOG and NWOG for context around daily or weekly opens
-Apply the midpoint (encroachment) line for precise execution decisions
-Let the script handle cleanup — only active, relevant zones remain visible
🎨 Customization
-Control colors for bullish, bearish, and opening gaps
-Toggle FVG borders and midpoint lines
-Enable or disable combining of consecutive gaps
-Fully automated zone management, no manual intervention required
✅ Summary
This tool offers a clear, rules-based approach to identifying price inefficiencies rooted in ICT methodology. Whether used for intraday or swing trading, it helps traders stay focused on valid, active Fair Value Gaps while filtering out noise and maintaining chart clarity.

Session Breakouts & Trend Indicator# Session Breakouts & Trend Indicator
This indicator identifies high-probability trading opportunities by tracking key intraday sessions and their breakouts while aligning them with the overall market trend direction.
## What Makes This Indicator Unique
Unlike standard breakout indicators that only identify when price crosses a threshold, this indicator:
- Dynamically identifies and tracks important daily sessions (default: AM 09:00-10:00 and PM 15:00-16:00)
- Determines trend direction using a triple EMA system (20/50/200)
- Shows when breakouts align with the overall trend (higher probability setups)
- Provides visual confirmation with session ranges, breakout levels, and background highlighting
- Includes a comprehensive information panel showing trend/session alignment
## How It Works
The indicator tracks two important daily sessions:
1. **AM Session**: Typically the first hour of trading (default: 09:00-10:00)
2. **PM Session**: Typically the last hour of trading (default: 15:00-16:00)
For each session, it:
- Marks the high and low range
- Establishes breakout levels above/below these ranges
- Detects when price breaks beyond these levels
- Determines if the breakout aligns with the prevailing trend
The trend is calculated using three EMAs (20, 50, 200) for reliable trend identification.
## How To Use
1. Apply the indicator to your chart (works best on 5-minute timeframes)
2. Adjust session times to match your trading schedule if needed
3. Watch for breakouts above session highs (bullish) or below session lows (bearish)
4. Check the information panel to see if the breakout aligns with the trend
5. Enter trades in the direction of trend-aligned breakouts for higher probability setups
6. Set stop losses below the opposite side of the session range
## Settings
- **Session Times**: Customize AM and PM session times
- **EMA Lengths**: Adjust trend determination sensitivity
- **Visualization Options**: Toggle display of sessions, breakouts, and VWAP
- **Alert Settings**: Configure alerts for breakouts and trend-aligned conditions
This indicator is valuable for day traders and swing traders looking for objective entry points with higher probability of success.

- *Climactic Volume (CV):* حجم تداول مرتفع بشكل استثنائي يشير لنهاية الاتجاه الحالي.
- *No Demand (ND):* شموع صعودية ضعيفة الحجم، تشير إلى غياب اهتمام المشترين.
- *No Supply (NS):* شموع هبوطية ضعيفة الحجم، تشير إلى غياب اهتمام البائعين.
- *Stopping Volume (SV):* ارتفاع مفاجئ في الحجم بعد اتجاه هابط، يشير لتدخل المشترين.
- *UpThrust (UT):* اختراق كاذب للسعر نحو الأعلى مع حجم كبير وإغلاق منخفض.
- *Test (T):* شموع اختبارية بحجم منخفض للتحقق من غياب البائعين استعدادًا للصعود.
2. تلوين الشموع:

VSA Tick Volume Indicator with Supply and Demand Zones (Beta Version)
A custom indicator for the TradingView platform based on Volume and Price Analysis (VSA - Volume Spread Analysis), it automatically identifies supply and demand zones based on strong VSA signals. The indicator aims to uncover the movements of professional traders and identify smart reversal points.
✅ Key Features:
VSA Signals: The indicator automatically detects key VSA analysis signals:
Climactic Volume (CV): Exceptionally high trading volume indicating the end of the current trend.
No Demand (ND): Bullish candles with weak volume, indicating a lack of buyer interest.
No Supply (NS): Bearish candles with weak volume, indicating a lack of seller interest.
Stopping Volume (SV): A sudden volume spike after a downtrend, indicating buyer intervention.
UpThrust (UT): A false price breakout upwards with high volume and a low close.
Test (T): Low-volume test candles to check for the absence of sellers, signaling readiness for an upward move.
Candle Coloring:
Each signal is automatically color-coded on the chart for easy visual tracking:
CV in red
ND in orange
NS in green
SV in blue
UT in purple
Test in cyan
Automatic Supply and Demand Zone Drawing:
Zones are determined based on the UT, SV, and Test signals, which are considered smart money zones.
🎯 Purpose of the Indicator:
This indicator helps:
The day trader make informed decisions.
The technical analyst understand the market's institutional context.
Enhance entry and exit strategies with more accuracy by combining VSA signals and actual supply and demand zones.
🧪 Notes:
The indicator is not a buy or sell recommendation.
Signals need confirmation through price action or additional indicators.
Can be used alongside other tools such as RSI or Moving Averages.
⚙ Future Suggestions:
Integration of liquidity flow tools (such as OBV or VWAP).
Sound alerts and notifications when specific signals appear.
Greater customization options for users regarding colors and signal types.
