VWAP MA HLOC securities Jayy update fix This version replaces previous versions that stopped functioning as a result of a TradingView script update.
This script complies with the current script syntax.
for intraday securities default is 9:30 am to 4 pm Eastern Other session choices are provided in the format dialogue box.
script plots VWAP, yesterday's high, low, open and close (HLOC), the day befores HLOC - if desired, today's open and todays high and low.
Also signals inside bars (high is less than or equal to the previous
bar's high and the low is greater than or equal to
the previous low) the : true inside bars have a maroon triangle below the bar as well as a ">" above the bar.
If subsequent bars are inside the last bar before the last true inside bar they also are marked with an ">"

VWAP / ORB / VP & POCThis is an all-in-one technical analysis tool designed to give you a comprehensive view of the market on a single chart. It combines three powerful indicators—VWAP, Opening Range, and Volume Profile—to help you identify key price levels, understand intraday trends, and spot areas of high liquidity.
What It Does
The indicator plots three distinct components on your chart:
Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP): A benchmark that shows the average price a security has traded at throughout the day, based on both price and volume. It's often used by institutional traders to gauge whether they are getting a good price. The script also plots standard deviation or percentage-based bands around the VWAP line, which can act as dynamic support and resistance.
Opening Range Breakout (ORB): A tool that highlights the high and low of the initial trading period of a session (e.g., the first 15 minutes). The script draws lines for the opening price, range high, and range low for the rest of the session. It also colors the chart with zones to visually separate price action above, below, and within this critical opening range.
Volume Profile (VP): A powerful study that shows trading activity over a set number of bars at specific price levels. Unlike traditional volume that is plotted over time, this is plotted on the price axis. It helps you instantly see where the most and least trading has occurred, identifying significant levels like the Point of Control (POC)—the single price with the most volume—and the Value Area (VA), where the majority of trading took place.
How to Use It for Trading
The real strength of this indicator comes from finding confluence, where two or more of its components signal the same key level.
Identifying Support & Resistance: The POC, VWAP bands, Opening Range high/low, and session open price are all powerful levels to watch. When price approaches one of these levels, you can anticipate a potential reaction (a bounce or a breakout).
Gauging Intraday Trend: A simple rule of thumb is to consider the intraday trend bullish when the price is trading above the VWAP and bearish when it is trading below the VWAP.
Finding High-Value Zones: The Volume Profile’s Value Area (VA) shows you where the market has accepted a price. Trading within the VA is considered "fair value," while prices outside of it are "unfair." Reversals often happen when the price tries to re-enter the Value Area from the outside.
Settings:
Here’s a breakdown of all the settings you can change to customize the indicator to your liking.
Volume Profile Settings:
Number of Bars: How many of the most recent bars to use for the calculation. A higher number gives a broader profile.
Row Size: The number of price levels (rows) in the profile. Higher numbers give a more detailed, granular view.
Value Area Volume %: The percentage of total volume to include in the Value Area (standard is 70%).
Horizontal Offset: Moves the Volume Profile further to the right to avoid overlapping with recent price action.
Colors & Styles: Customize the colors for the POC line, Value Area, and the up/down volume bars.
VWAP Settings:
Anchor Period: Resets the VWAP calculation at the start of a new Session, Week, Month, Year, etc. You can even anchor it to corporate events like Earnings or Splits.
Source: The price source used in the calculation (default is hlc3, the average of the high, low, and close).
Bands Calculation Mode:
Standard Deviation: The bands are based on statistical volatility.
Percentage: The bands are a fixed percentage away from the VWAP line.
Bands Multiplier: Sets the distance of the bands from the VWAP. You can enable and configure up to three sets of bands.
ORB Settings (Opening Range)
Opening Range Timeframe: The duration of the opening range (e.g., 15 for 15 minutes, 60 for the first hour).
Market Session & Time Zone: Crucial for ensuring the range is calculated at the correct time for the asset you're trading.
Line & Zone Styles: Full customization for the colors, thickness, and style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted) of the High, Low, and Opening Price lines, as well as the background colors for the zones above, below, and within the range.

5. Trading Strategies {#strategies}Strategy 1: Trend Reversal TradingEntry Signals:
Buy: When counter changes from negative to +1
Sell: When counter changes from positive to -1
Confirmation:
Wait for +2 or -2 to confirm trend strength
Use additional indicators (RSI, MACD) for validation
Example:Candle: -5, -6, -7, -8, +1, +2 ← BUY HERE
Stop Loss: Below the -8 candle low
Target: When counter reaches +8 to +10
Strategy 2: Trend Continuation TradingEntry Signals:
Buy: Enter on pullbacks during uptrend (e.g., at +3, +5, +7)
Sell: Enter on bounces during downtrend (e.g., at -3, -5, -7)
Risk Management:
Avoid entering at high numbers (+15, -15) - trend may be exhausted
Example:Candle: +1, +2, +3 ← Small pullback, BUY
Continue: +4, +5, +6, +7
Exit: When counter resets to -1
Strategy 3: Trend Exhaustion DetectionWarning Signs:
Counter reaches +10 or higher → Uptrend may be overextended
Counter reaches -10 or lower → Downtrend may be overextended
Action:
Tighten stop losses
Take partial profits
Watch for reversal patterns (doji, engulfing)
Strategy 4: Multi-Timeframe AnalysisSetup:
Add indicator to 3 timeframes (e.g., 15m, 1h, 4h)
Look for alignment
Best Trades:15m: +1 (new uptrend)
1h: +5 (established uptrend)
4h: +3 (strong uptrend)
→ HIGH PROBABILITY BUY
6. Setting Up Alerts {#alerts}Built-in Alert Conditions:The script includes 2 automatic alerts:

7. Troubleshooting {#troubleshooting}Common Issues & Solutions:Issue 1: Labels are too cluttered
Solution:
Disable "Show Candle Numbers" in settings
Use larger timeframe
Reduce label size to "tiny"
Issue 2: Too many false signals
Solution:
Increase "Trend Detection Length" (e.g., 20, 50)
Wait for +2 or -2 confirmation
Combine with other indicators
Issue 3: Trend line doesn't match price action
Solution:
Adjust EMA length to match your trading style
Consider using different trend detection (SMA, HMA)
Issue 4: Indicator not showing on chart
Solution:
Check if it's in a separate pane - move to main chart
Refresh the page
Re-add the indicator
Issue 5: Counter seems delayed
Solution:
This is normal - indicator confirms on candle close
For faster signals, use lower timeframe
Reduce EMA length (but expect more noise)
8. Advanced Tips 💡Combining with Other Indicators:Best Combinations:
RSI + Trend Candle Counter
Buy at +1 when RSI > 50
Sell at -1 when RSI < 50
MACD + Trend Candle Counter
Confirm +1 with MACD bullish crossover
Confirm -1 with MACD bearish crossover
Volume + Trend Candle Counter
Strong trends (+1) should have increasing volume
Low volume at high numbers (+10) = exhaustion

Normalized Portfolio TrackerThis script lets you create, visualize, and track a custom portfolio of up to 15 assets directly on TradingView.
It calculates a synthetic "portfolio index" by combining multiple tickers with user-defined weights, automatically normalizing them so the total allocation always equals 100%.
All assets are scaled to a common starting point, allowing you to compare your portfolio’s performance versus any benchmark like SPY, QQQ, or BTC.
🚀 Goal
This script helps traders and investors:
• Understand the combined performance of their portfolio.
• Normalize diverse assets into a single synthetic chart .
• Make portfolio-level insights without relying on external spreadsheets.
🎯 Use Cases
• Backtest your portfolio allocations directly on the chart.
• Compare your portfolio vs. benchmarks like SPY, QQQ, BTC.
• Track thematic baskets (commodities, EV supply chain, regional ETFs).
• Visualize how each component contributes to overall performance.
📊 Features
• Weighted Portfolio Performance : Combines selected assets into a synthetic value series.
• Base Price Alignment : Each asset is normalized to its starting price at the chosen date.
• Dynamic Portfolio Table : Displays symbols, normalized weights (%), equivalent shares (based on each asset’s start price, sums to 100 shares), and a total row that always sums to 100%.
• Multi-Asset Support : Works with stocks, ETFs, indices, crypto, or any TradingView-compatible symbol.
⚙️ Configuration
Flexible Portfolio Setup
• Add up to 15 assets with custom weight inputs.
• You can enter any arbitrary numbers (e.g. 30, 15, 55).
• The script automatically normalizes all weights so the total allocation always equals 100%.
Start Date Selection
• Choose any custom start date to normalize all assets.
• The portfolio value is then scaled relative to the main chart symbol, so you can directly compare portfolio performance against benchmarks like SPY or QQQ.
Chart Styles
• Candlestick chart
• Heikin Ashi chart
• Line chart
Custom Display
• Adjustable colors and line widths
• Optionally display asset list, normalized weights, and equivalent shares
⚙️ How It Works
• Fetch OHLC data for each asset.
• Normalizes weights internally so totals = 100%.
• Stores each asset’s base price at the selected start date.
• Calculates equivalent “shares” for each allocation.
• Builds a synthetic portfolio value series by summing weighted contributions.
• Renders as Candlestick, Heikin Ashi, or Line chart.
• Adds a portfolio info table for clarity.
⚠️ Notes
• This script is for visualization only . It does not place trades or auto-rebalance.
• Weight inputs are automatically normalized, so you don’t need to enter exact percentages.
ORB 15m + MAs (v4.1)Session ORB Live Pro — Pre-Market Boxes & MA Suite (v4.1)
What it is
A precision Opening Range Breakout (ORB) tool that anchors every session to one specific 15-minute candle—then projects that same high/low onto lower timeframes so your 1m/5m levels always match the source 15m bar. Perfect for scalpers who want session structure without drift.
What it draws
Asia, Pre-London, London, Pre-New York, New York session boxes.
On 15m: only the high/low of the first 15-minute bar of each window (optionally persists for extra bars).
On 5m: mirrors the same 15m range, visible up to 10 bars.
On 1m: mirrors the same 15m range, visible up to 15 bars.
Levels update live while the 15m candle is forming, then lock.
Fully editable windows (easy UX)
Change session times with TradingView’s native input.session fields using the familiar format HHMM-HHMM:1234567. You can tweak each window independently:
Asia
Pre-London
London
Pre-New York
New York
Multi-TF logic (no guesswork)
Designed to show only on 1m, 5m, 15m (by default).
15m = ground truth. Lower timeframes never “recalculate a different range”—they mirror the 15m bar for that session, exactly.
Alerts
Optional breakout alerts when price closes above/below the session range.
Clean visuals
Per-session color controls (box + lines). Boxes extend only for the configured number of bars per timeframe, keeping charts uncluttered.
Built-in MA suite
SMA 50 and RMA 200.
Three extra MAs (SMA/EMA/RMA/WMA/HMA) with selectable color, width, and style (line, stepline, circles).
Why traders like it

Best for
Intraday traders and scalpers who rely on repeatable session behavior and demand exact cross-TF alignment of ORB levels.
BOCS AdaptiveBOCS Adaptive Strategy - Automated Volatility Breakout System
WHAT THIS STRATEGY DOES:
This is an automated trading strategy that detects consolidation patterns through volatility analysis and executes trades when price breaks out of these channels. Take-profit and stop-loss levels are calculated dynamically using Average True Range (ATR) to adapt to current market volatility. The strategy closes positions partially at the first profit target and exits the remainder at the second target or stop loss.
TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY:
Price Normalization Process:
The strategy begins by normalizing price to create a consistent measurement scale. It calculates the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period (default 100 bars). The current close price is then normalized using the formula: (close - lowest_low) / (highest_high - lowest_low). This produces values between 0 and 1, allowing volatility analysis to work consistently across different instruments and price levels.
Volatility Detection:
A 14-period standard deviation is applied to the normalized price series. Standard deviation measures how much prices deviate from their average - higher values indicate volatility expansion, lower values indicate consolidation. The strategy uses ta.highestbars() and ta.lowestbars() functions to track when volatility reaches peaks and troughs over the detection length period (default 14 bars).
Channel Formation Logic:
When volatility crosses from a high level to a low level, this signals the beginning of a consolidation phase. The strategy records this moment using ta.crossover(upper, lower) and begins tracking the highest and lowest prices during the consolidation. These become the channel boundaries. The duration between the crossover and current bar must exceed 10 bars minimum to avoid false channels from brief volatility spikes. Channels are drawn using box objects with the recorded high/low boundaries.
Breakout Signal Generation:
Two detection modes are available:
Strong Closes Mode (default): Breakout occurs when the candle body midpoint math.avg(close, open) exceeds the channel boundary. This filters out wick-only breaks.
Any Touch Mode: Breakout occurs when the close price exceeds the boundary.
When price closes above the upper channel boundary, a bullish breakout signal generates. When price closes below the lower boundary, a bearish breakout signal generates. The channel is then removed from the chart.
ATR-Based Risk Management:
The strategy uses request.security() to fetch ATR values from a specified timeframe, which can differ from the chart timeframe. For example, on a 5-minute chart, you can use 1-minute ATR for more responsive calculations. The ATR is calculated using ta.atr(length) with a user-defined period (default 14).
Exit levels are calculated at the moment of breakout:
Long Entry Price = Upper channel boundary
Long TP1 = Entry + (ATR × TP1 Multiplier)
Long TP2 = Entry + (ATR × TP2 Multiplier)
Long SL = Entry - (ATR × SL Multiplier)
For short trades, the calculation inverts:
Short Entry Price = Lower channel boundary
Short TP1 = Entry - (ATR × TP1 Multiplier)
Short TP2 = Entry - (ATR × TP2 Multiplier)
Short SL = Entry + (ATR × SL Multiplier)
Trade Execution Logic:
When a breakout occurs, the strategy checks if trading hours filter is satisfied (if enabled) and if position size equals zero (no existing position). If volume confirmation is enabled, it also verifies that current volume exceeds 1.2 times the 20-period simple moving average.
If all conditions are met:
strategy.entry() opens a position using the user-defined number of contracts
strategy.exit() immediately places a stop loss order
The code monitors price against TP1 and TP2 levels on each bar
When price reaches TP1, strategy.close() closes the specified number of contracts (e.g., if you enter with 3 contracts and set TP1 close to 1, it closes 1 contract). When price reaches TP2, it closes all remaining contracts. If stop loss is hit first, the entire position exits via the strategy.exit() order.
Volume Analysis System:
The strategy uses ta.requestUpAndDownVolume(timeframe) to fetch up volume, down volume, and volume delta from a specified timeframe. Three display modes are available:
Volume Mode: Shows total volume as bars scaled relative to the 20-period average
Comparison Mode: Shows up volume and down volume as separate bars above/below the channel midline
Delta Mode: Shows net volume delta (up volume - down volume) as bars, positive values above midline, negative below
The volume confirmation logic compares breakout bar volume to the 20-period SMA. If volume ÷ average > 1.2, the breakout is classified as "confirmed." When volume confirmation is enabled in settings, only confirmed breakouts generate trades.
INPUT PARAMETERS:
Strategy Settings:
Number of Contracts: Fixed quantity to trade per signal (1-1000)
Require Volume Confirmation: Toggle to only trade signals with volume >120% of average
TP1 Close Contracts: Exact number of contracts to close at first target (1-1000)
Use Trading Hours Filter: Toggle to restrict trading to specified session
Trading Hours: Session input in HHMM-HHMM format (e.g., "0930-1600")
Main Settings:
Normalization Length: Lookback bars for high/low calculation (1-500, default 100)
Box Detection Length: Period for volatility peak/trough detection (1-100, default 14)
Strong Closes Only: Toggle between body midpoint vs close price for breakout detection
Nested Channels: Allow multiple overlapping channels vs single channel at a time
ATR TP/SL Settings:
ATR Timeframe: Source timeframe for ATR calculation (1, 5, 15, 60, etc.)
ATR Length: Smoothing period for ATR (1-100, default 14)
Take Profit 1 Multiplier: Distance from entry as multiple of ATR (0.1-10.0, default 2.0)
Take Profit 2 Multiplier: Distance from entry as multiple of ATR (0.1-10.0, default 3.0)
Stop Loss Multiplier: Distance from entry as multiple of ATR (0.1-10.0, default 1.0)
Enable Take Profit 2: Toggle second profit target on/off
VISUAL INDICATORS:
Channel boxes with semi-transparent fill showing consolidation zones
Green/red colored zones at channel boundaries indicating breakout areas
Volume bars displayed within channels using selected mode
TP/SL lines with labels showing both price level and distance in points
Entry signals marked with up/down triangles at breakout price
Strategy status table showing position, contracts, P&L, ATR values, and volume confirmation status
HOW TO USE:
For 2-Minute Scalping:
Set ATR Timeframe to "1" (1-minute), ATR Length to 12, TP1 Multiplier to 2.0, TP2 Multiplier to 3.0, SL Multiplier to 1.5. Enable volume confirmation and strong closes only. Use trading hours filter to avoid low-volume periods.
For 5-15 Minute Day Trading:
Set ATR Timeframe to match chart or use 5-minute, ATR Length to 14, TP1 Multiplier to 2.0, TP2 Multiplier to 3.5, SL Multiplier to 1.2. Volume confirmation recommended but optional.
For Hourly+ Swing Trading:
Set ATR Timeframe to 15-30 minute, ATR Length to 14-21, TP1 Multiplier to 2.5, TP2 Multiplier to 4.0, SL Multiplier to 1.5. Volume confirmation optional, nested channels can be enabled for multiple setups.
BACKTEST CONSIDERATIONS:
Strategy performs best during trending or volatility expansion phases
Consolidation-heavy or choppy markets produce more false signals
Shorter timeframes require wider stop loss multipliers due to noise
Commission and slippage significantly impact performance on sub-5-minute charts
Volume confirmation generally improves win rate but reduces trade frequency
ATR multipliers should be optimized for specific instrument characteristics
COMPATIBLE MARKETS:
Works on any instrument with price and volume data including forex pairs, stock indices, individual stocks, cryptocurrency, commodities, and futures contracts. Requires TradingView data feed that includes volume for volume confirmation features to function.
KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
Stop losses execute via strategy.exit() and may not fill at exact levels during gaps or extreme volatility
request.security() on lower timeframes requires higher-tier TradingView subscription
False breakouts inherent to breakout strategies cannot be completely eliminated
Performance varies significantly based on market regime (trending vs ranging)
Partial closing logic requires sufficient position size relative to TP1 close contracts setting
RISK DISCLOSURE:
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Past performance of this or any strategy does not guarantee future results. This strategy is provided for educational purposes and automated backtesting. Thoroughly test on historical data and paper trade before risking real capital. Market conditions change and strategies that worked historically may fail in the future. Use appropriate position sizing and never risk more than you can afford to lose. Consider consulting a licensed financial advisor before making trading decisions.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT & CREDITS:
This strategy 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 and sharing this innovative technique with the TradingView community. The enhancements added to the original concept include automated trade execution, multi-timeframe ATR-based risk management, partial position closing by contract count, volume confirmation filtering, and real-time position monitoring.
Foresight Cone (HoltxF1xVWAP) [KedArc Quant]Description:
This is a time-series forecasting indicator that estimates the next bar (F1) and projects a path a few bars ahead. It also draws a confidence cone based on how accurate the recent forecasts have been. You can optionally color the projection only when price agrees with VWAP.
Why it’s different
* One clear model: Everything comes from Holt’s trend-aware forecasting method—no mix of unrelated indicators.
* Transparent visuals: You see the next-bar estimate (F1), the forward projection, and a cone that widens or narrows based on recent forecast error.
* Context, not signals: The VWAP option only changes colors. It doesn’t add trade rules.
* No look-ahead: Accuracy is measured using the forecast made on the previous bar versus the current bar.
Inputs (what they mean)
* Source: Price series to forecast (default: Close).
* Preset: Quick profiles for fast, smooth, or momentum markets (see below).
* Alpha (Level): How fast the model reacts to new prices. Higher = faster, twitchier.
* Beta (Trend): How fast the model updates the slope. Higher = faster pivots, more flips in chop.
* Horizon: How many bars ahead to project. Bigger = wider cone.
* Residual Window: How many bars to judge recent accuracy. Bigger = steadier cone.
* Confidence Z: How wide the cone should be (typical setting ≈ “95% style” width).
* Show Bands / Draw Forward Path: Turn the cone and forward lines on/off.
* Color only when aligned with VWAP: Highlights projections only when price agrees with the trend side of VWAP.
* Colors / Show Panel: Styling plus a small panel with RMSE, MAPE, and trend slope.
Presets (when to pick which)
* Scalp / Fast (1-min): Very responsive; best for quick moves. More twitch in chop.
* Smooth Intraday (1–5 min): Calmer and steadier; a good default most days.
* Momentum / Breakout: Quicker slope tracking during strong pushes; may over-react in ranges.
* Custom: Set your own values if you know exactly what you want.
What is F1 here?
F1 is the model’s next-bar fair value. Crosses of price versus F1 can hint at short-term momentum shifts or mean-reversion, especially when viewed with VWAP or the cone.
How this helps
* Gives a baseline path of where price may drift and a cone that shows normal wiggle room.
* Helps you tell routine noise (inside cone) from information (edges or breaks outside the cone).
* Keeps you aware of short-term bias via the trend slope and F1.
How to use (step by step)
1. Add to chart → choose a Preset (start with Smooth Intraday).
2. Set Horizon around 8–15 bars for intraday.
3. (Optional) Turn on VWAP alignment to color only when price agrees with the trend side of VWAP.
4. Watch where price sits relative to the cone and F1:
* Inside = normal noise.
* At edges = stretched.
* Outside = possible regime change.
5. Check the panel: if RMSE/MAPE spike, expect a wider cone; consider a smoother preset or a higher timeframe.
6. Tweak Alpha/Beta only if needed: faster for momentum, slower for chop.
7. Combine with your own plan for entries, exits, and risk.
Accuracy Panel — what it tells you
Preset & Horizon: Shows which preset you’re using and how many bars ahead the projection goes. Longer horizons mean more uncertainty.
RMSE (error in price units): A “typical miss” measured in the chart’s currency (e.g., ₹).
Lower = tighter fit and a usually narrower cone. Rising = conditions getting noisier; the cone will widen.
MAPE (error in %): The same idea as RMSE but in percent.
Good for comparing different symbols or timeframes. Sudden spikes often hint at a regime change.
Slope T: The model’s short-term trend reading.
Positive = gentle up-bias; negative = gentle down-bias; near zero = mostly flat/drifty.
How to read it at a glance
Calm & directional: RMSE/MAPE steady or falling + Slope T positive (or negative) → trends tend to respect the cone’s mid/upper (or mid/lower) area.
Choppy/uncertain: RMSE/MAPE climbing or jumping → expect more whipsaw; rely more on the cone edges and higher-TF context.
Flat tape: Slope T near zero → mean-revert behavior is common; treat cone edges as stretch zones rather than breakout zones.
Warm-up & tweaks
Warm-up: Right after adding the indicator, the panel may be blank for a short time while it gathers enough bars.
Too twitchy? Switch to Smooth Intraday or increase the Residual Window.
Too slow? Use Scalp/Fast or Momentum/Breakout to react quicker.
Timeframe tips
* 1–3 min: Scalp/Fast or Momentum/Breakout; horizon \~8–12.
* 5–15 min: Smooth Intraday; horizon \~12–15.
* 30–60 min+: Consider a larger residual window for a steadier cone.
FAQ
Q: Is this a strategy or an indicator?
A: It’s an indicator only. It does not place orders, TP/SL, or run backtests.
Q: Does it repaint?
A: The next-bar estimate (F1) and the cone are calculated using only information available at that time. The forward path is a projection drawn on the last bar and will naturally update as new bars arrive. Historical bars aren’t revised with future data.
Q: What is F1?
A: F1 is the indicator’s best guess for the next bar.
Price crossing above/below F1 can hint at short-term momentum shifts or mean-reversion.
Q: What do “Alpha” and “Beta” do?
A: Alpha controls how fast the indicator reacts to new prices
(higher = faster, twitchier). Beta controls how fast the slope updates (higher = quicker pivots, more flips in chop).
Q: Why does the cone width change?
A: It reflects recent forecast accuracy. When the market gets noisy, the cone widens. When the tape is calm, it narrows.
Q: What does the Accuracy Panel tell me?
A:
* Preset & Horizon you’re using.
* RMSE: typical forecast miss in price units.
* MAPE: typical forecast miss in percent.
* Slope T: short-term trend reading (up, down, or flat).
If RMSE/MAPE rise, expect a wider cone and more whipsaw.
Q: The panel shows “…” or looks empty. Why?
A: It needs a short warm-up to gather enough bars. This is normal after you add the indicator or change settings/timeframes.
Q: Which timeframe is best?
A:
* 1–3 min: Scalp/Fast or Momentum/Breakout, horizon \~8–12.
* 5–15 min: Smooth Intraday, horizon \~12–15.
Higher timeframes work too; consider a larger residual window for steadier cones.
Q: Which preset should I start with?
A: Start with Smooth Intraday. If the market is trending hard, try Momentum/Breakout.
For very quick tapes, use Scalp/Fast. Switch back if things get choppy.
Q: What does the VWAP option do?
A: It only changes colors (highlights when price agrees with the trend side of VWAP).
It does not add or remove signals.
Q: Are there alerts?
A: Yes—alerts for price crossing F1 (up/down). Use “Once per bar close” to reduce noise on fast charts.
Q: Can I use this on stocks, futures, crypto, or FX?
A: Yes. It works on any symbol/timeframe. You may want to adjust Horizon and the Residual Window based on volatility.
Q: Can I use it with Heikin Ashi or other non-standard bars?
A: You can, but remember you’re forecasting the synthetic series of those bars. For pure price behavior, use regular candles.
Q: The cone feels too wide/too narrow. What do I change?
A:
* Too wide: lower Alpha/Beta a bit or increase the Residual Window.
* Too narrow (misses moves): raise Alpha/Beta slightly or try Momentum/Breakout.
Q: Why do results change when I switch timeframe or symbol?
A: Different noise levels and trends. The accuracy stats reset per chart, so the cone adapts to each context.
Q: Any limits or gotchas?
A: Extremely large Horizon may hit TradingView’s line-object limits; reduce Horizon or turn
off extra visuals if needed. Big gaps or news spikes will widen errors—expect the cone to react.
Q: Can this predict exact future prices?
A: No. It provides a baseline path and context. Always combine with your own rules and risk management.

EMA 200 MultiTF G/R + Cross Alerts by LifeHack Trader1. Indicator Setup
The script starts by defining the version of Pine Script (v5) and creating an indicator called "EMA 200 MultiTF G/R + Cross Alerts by LifeHack Trader."
The overlay=true parameter ensures that the indicator is plotted directly on the price chart.
2. Function to Get EMA200
A custom function getEma200 is defined to retrieve the 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) for a specified timeframe (tf).
This function uses the request.security function to fetch the close price's EMA from different timeframes.
3. Calculate EMA200 for Multiple Timeframes
The script calculates the EMA200 for four timeframes: 15 minutes ("15"), 1 hour ("60"), 4 hours ("240"), and 1 day ("D").
These values are stored in variables (ema15, ema1h, ema4h, ema1d) and represent the EMA for each timeframe.
4. Determine Price Above or Below EMA200 (G/R)
For each timeframe, the script checks whether the closing price is above or below the EMA200.
It uses boolean checks to determine if the price is above the EMA200, assigning the status "G" (Green) for above and "R" (Red) for below.
5. Cross Signal Detection (Up/Down)
The script detects crossovers and crossunders between the price and EMA200 for each timeframe.
A crossover signal is detected when the price crosses above the EMA200 (bullish), and a crossunder signal is detected when the price crosses below the EMA200 (bearish).
These signals are stored in separate variables (crossUp, crossDown).
6. Display a Table with G/R Status and Cross Alerts
A table is created and displayed in the top-right corner of the chart. The table shows the status (G or R) for each timeframe and the cross signal (▲ for crossover, ▼ for crossunder, or - for no cross event).
The table is updated with the respective values for each timeframe every time a new bar is formed.
7. Alert Conditions
The script defines alert conditions based on the crossovers and crossunders.
When a price crosses above the EMA200 (cross-up), an alert is triggered for a potential buy opportunity. When the price crosses below the EMA200 (cross-down), an alert is triggered for a potential sell opportunity.
Alerts are configured for each timeframe (15 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, and 1 day).
This script provides a comprehensive system for monitoring price action relative to the EMA200 on multiple timeframes, highlighting crossovers, and delivering visual feedback and alerts based on the price's relationship with the EMA.
Simplified Market ForecastSimplified Market Forecast Indicator
This indicator pairs nicely with the Contrarian 100 MA and can be located here:
Overview
The "Simplified Market Forecast" (SMF) indicator is a streamlined technical analysis tool designed for traders to identify potential buy and sell opportunities based on a momentum-based oscillator. By analyzing price movements relative to a defined lookback period, SMF generates clear buy and sell signals when the oscillator crosses customizable threshold levels. This indicator is versatile, suitable for various markets (e.g., forex, stocks, cryptocurrencies), and optimized for daily timeframes, though it can be adapted to other timeframes with proper testing. Its intuitive design and visual cues make it accessible for both novice and experienced traders.
How It Works
The SMF indicator calculates a momentum oscillator based on the price’s position within a specified range over a user-defined lookback period. It then smooths this value to reduce noise and plots the result as a line in a separate lower pane. Buy and sell signals are generated when the smoothed oscillator crosses above a user-defined buy level or below a user-defined sell level, respectively. These signals are visualized as triangles either on the main chart or in the lower pane, with a table displaying the current ticker and oscillator value for quick reference.
Key Components
Momentum Oscillator: The indicator measures the price’s position relative to the highest high and lowest low over a specified period, normalized to a 0–100 scale.
Signal Generation: Buy signals occur when the oscillator crosses above the buy level (default: 15), indicating potential oversold conditions. Sell signals occur when the oscillator crosses below the sell level (default: 85), suggesting potential overbought conditions.
Visual Aids: The indicator includes customizable horizontal lines for buy and sell levels, shaded zones for clarity, and a table showing the ticker and current oscillator value.
Mathematical Concepts
Oscillator Calculation: The indicator uses the following formula to compute the raw oscillator value:
c1I = close - lowest(low, medLen)
c2I = highest(high, medLen) - lowest(low, medLen)
fastK_I = (c1I / c2I) * 100
The result is smoothed using a 5-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) to produce the final oscillator value (inter).
Signal Logic:
A buy signal is triggered when the smoothed oscillator crosses above the buy level (ta.crossover(inter, buyLevel)).
A sell signal is triggered when the smoothed oscillator crosses below the sell level (ta.crossunder(inter, sellLevel)).
Entry and Exit Rules
Buy Signal (Blue Triangle): Triggered when the oscillator crosses above the buy level (default: 15), indicating a potential oversold condition and a buying opportunity. The signal appears as a blue triangle either below the price bar (if plotted on the main chart) or at the bottom of the lower pane.
Sell Signal (White Triangle): Triggered when the oscillator crosses below the sell level (default: 85), indicating a potential overbought condition and a selling opportunity. The signal appears as a white triangle either above the price bar (if plotted on the main chart) or at the top of the lower pane.
Exit Rules: Traders can exit positions when an opposite signal occurs (e.g., exit a buy on a sell signal) or based on additional technical analysis tools (e.g., support/resistance, trendlines). Always apply proper risk management.
Recommended Usage
The SMF indicator is optimized for the daily timeframe but can be adapted to other timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H) with careful testing. It performs best in markets with clear momentum shifts, such as trending or range-bound conditions. Traders should:
Backtest the indicator on their chosen asset and timeframe to validate signal reliability.
Combine with other indicators (e.g., moving averages, support/resistance) or price action for confirmation.
Adjust the lookback period and buy/sell levels to suit market volatility and trading style.
Customization Options
Intermediate Length: Adjust the lookback period for the oscillator calculation (default: 31 bars).
Buy/Sell Levels: Customize the threshold levels for buy (default: 15) and sell (default: 85) signals.
Colors: Modify the colors of the oscillator line, buy/sell signals, and threshold lines.
Signal Display: Toggle whether signals appear on the main chart or in the lower pane.
Visual Aids: The indicator includes dotted horizontal lines at the buy (green) and sell (red) levels, with shaded zones between 0–buy level (green) and sell level–100 (red) for clarity.
Ticker Table: A table in the top-right corner displays the current ticker and oscillator value (in percentage), with customizable colors.
Why Use This Indicator?
The "Simplified Market Forecast" indicator provides a straightforward, momentum-based approach to identifying potential reversals in overbought or oversold markets. Its clear signals, customizable settings, and visual aids make it easy to integrate into various trading strategies. Whether you’re a swing trader or a day trader, SMF offers a reliable tool to enhance decision-making and improve market timing.
Tips for Users
Test the indicator thoroughly on your chosen asset and timeframe to optimize settings.
Use in conjunction with other technical tools for stronger trade confirmation.
Adjust the buy and sell levels based on market conditions (e.g., lower levels for less volatile markets).
Monitor the ticker table for real-time oscillator values to gauge market momentum.
Happy trading with the Simplified Market Forecast indicator!

Third Eye ORB Pro (0915-0930 IST, no-plot)Third Eye ORB Pro (Opening Range Breakout + Range Mode)
This indicator is designed specifically for Indian stocks and indices (NIFTY, BANKNIFTY, FINNIFTY, MIDCAP, etc.) to track the Opening Range (09:15–09:30 IST) and generate actionable intraday trade signals. It combines two key modes — Range Mode (mean reversion inside the opening range) and Breakout Mode (momentum trading beyond the range).
1. Opening Range Framework (09:15–09:30 IST)
The indicator automatically plots the Opening Range High (ORH) and Opening Range Low (ORL) after the first 15 minutes of market open.
The area between ORH and ORL acts as the intraday battlefield where most price action occurs (historically ~70–80% of the day is spent inside this zone).
A shaded box and horizontal lines mark this range, serving as a visual reference for support and resistance throughout the day.
2. Range Mode (Mean Reversion Inside OR)
When price trades inside the Opening Range, the indicator looks for edge rejections to capture range-bound trades.
Range BUY (RB): Triggered near ORL when a bullish rejection candle forms (strong body + long lower wick).
Range SELL (RS): Triggered near ORH when a bearish rejection candle forms (strong body + long upper wick).
Optional filters (toggleable in settings):
RSI Filter: Only allow range buys if RSI is oversold (≤45) and range sells if RSI is overbought (≥55).
VWAP Filter: Only allow range trades if price is not too far from VWAP (distance ≤ X% of OR size).
Labels show suggested Stop Loss (just outside the OR band) and Target (midline/VWAP).
Cooldown logic prevents consecutive whipsaw signals.
3. Breakout Mode (Directional Moves Beyond OR)
When price closes strongly outside the ORH/ORL with momentum, the indicator confirms a breakout/breakdown trade.
Buffers are applied to avoid false breakouts:
ATR Buffer: Price must extend at least ATR × multiplier beyond the range edge.
% Buffer: Price must extend at least a percentage of OR size (default 10%).
Confirmation Filters:
Candle must have a strong body (≥60% of total bar range).
Optional “two closes” rule: price must close outside the range for 2 consecutive candles.
BUY BO: Trigger when price closes above ORH + buffer with momentum.
SELL BD: Trigger when price closes below ORL – buffer with momentum.
Labels and alerts are plotted for quick action.
4. Practical Usage
Works best on 5-minute charts for intraday trading.
Designed to help traders capture both:
Range-bound moves during the day (mean reversion plays).
Strong directional breakouts when institutions push price beyond the opening range.
Particularly effective on expiry days, trending sessions, and major news days when breakouts are more likely.
On sideways days, Range Mode provides reliable scalp opportunities at the OR edges.
5. Features
Auto-plots Opening Range High, Low, Midline.
Box + line visuals (no repainting).
Buy/Sell labels for both Range Mode and Breakout Mode.
Customizable buffers (ATR, % of range) to suit volatility.
Alerts for all signals (breakouts and range plays).
Built with risk management in mind (suggested SL and TP shown on chart).

• VOLATILE - Elevated volatility with unpredictable price swings
• QUIET - Low volatility consolidation periods
• TRANSITIONAL - Market shifting between different regimes
2. Market Structure Analysis
Advanced pivot point analysis identifies:
• Higher Highs and Higher Lows for bullish structure
• Lower Highs and Lower Lows for bearish structure
• Structure breaks when established patterns fail
• Dynamic support and resistance from recent pivot points
• Key level proximity detection using ATR-based buffers
3. Volume Flow Decoding
Institutional activity detection through:
• Volume surge identification when volume exceeds 2x average
• Buy versus sell pressure analysis using price-volume correlation
• Flow strength measurement through directional volume consistency
• Divergence detection between volume and price movements
• Institutional threshold alerts when unusual volume patterns emerge
4. Multi-Period Momentum Synthesis
Weighted momentum calculation across four timeframes:
• 1-period momentum weighted at 40%
• 3-period momentum weighted at 30%
• 5-period momentum weighted at 20%
• 8-period momentum weighted at 10%
Result smoothed with 6-period EMA for noise reduction.
5. Price Action Quality Assessment
Each bar evaluated for:
• Range quality relative to 20-period average
• Body-to-range ratio for directional conviction
• Wick analysis for rejection pattern identification
• Pattern recognition including engulfing and hammer formations
• Sequential price movement analysis
6. Adaptive Parameter System
Parameters automatically adjust based on detected regime:
• Trending markets reduce sensitivity and confirmation requirements
• Volatile markets increase filtering and require additional confirmations

VWATR + VIX + VVIX Trend Regime### 🤖 VWATR + VIX + VVIX Trend Regime — Your Ultimate Volatility Dashboard! 📊
This isn't just another indicator; it's a comprehensive dashboard that brings together everything you need to understand market volatility focused on Futures. It merges price-based movement with market-wide fear and sentiment, giving you a powerful edge in your trading and risk management. Think of it as your personal volatility sidekick, ready to help you navigate market uncertainty like a pro!
***
### ✨ What's Inside?
* **VWATR (Volume-Weighted ATR):** A super-smart measure of price movement that pays close attention to where the big money is flowing.
* **VIX (The "Fear Gauge"):** Tracks the expected volatility of the S&P 500, essentially telling you how nervous the market is feeling.
* **VVIX (The "VIX of VIX"):** This one's for the pros! It measures how volatile the VIX itself is, giving you an early heads-up on potential fear spikes.
* **VX Term Structure:** A clever way to see if traders are preparing for a crisis. It compares the two nearest VIX futures to spot a rare signal called "backwardation."
* **Z-Scores:** It helps you spot when VIX and VVIX are at historic highs or lows, making it easier to predict when things might return to normal.
* **Divergence Score:** A unique tool to flag potential market shifts when the VIX and VVIX start moving in completely different directions.
* **Regime Classification:** The script automatically labels the market as "Full Panic," "Known Crisis," "Surface Calm," "Stress," or "Normal," so you always know where you stand.
* **Gradient Bars:** A visual treat! The background of your chart changes color to reflect real-time volatility shifts, giving you an instant feel for the market's mood.
* **Alerts:** Get push notifications on your phone for key events like "Full Panic" or "Backwardation" so you never miss a beat.

### 📝 Panel/Table Outputs
This is your mission control! The on-screen table gives you a clean summary of the current market regime, VIX and VVIX values, their ratios, term structure, Z-scores, and signals. Everything you need, right where you can see it.
***
### 🚀 How to Get Started
1. **Check your data:** You'll need access to real-time data for VIX, VVIX, VX1!, and VX2!. A paid subscription might be necessary for this.
2. **Add it to your chart:** Use the indicator on any chart (we've set it to `overlay=false`) to get your full volatility dashboard.
3. **Tweak it to perfection:** Head over to the Settings panel to customize the thresholds, colors, and your all-important "Jolt Value."
4. **Start trading smarter:** Use the dashboard to inform your trades, hedge your portfolio, and manage risk with confidence.
***
### ⚙️ Customization & Key Settings
* `showVWATR`: Toggle your price-volatility metric on or off.
* `showExpectedVol`: See the expected volatility as a percentage of the current price.
* `joltLevel`: This is a very important line on your chart! It's your personal trigger for when volatility is getting a little too wild. More on this below.
* `enableGradientBars`: Turn the awesome colored background on or off.
* `enableTable`: Hide or show your information table.
* `VIX/VVIX/VX1!/VX2! symbols`: If your broker uses different symbols for these, you can change them here.
* `VIX/VVIX thresholds`: Adjust these levels to fine-tune the indicator to your personal risk tolerance.
***
### 💡 Jolt Value: A Quick Guide for Smart Traders 🧠
The **jolt value** is your personal tripwire for volatility. Think of it as a warning light on your car's dashboard. You set the level, and when volatility (VWATR) crosses that line, you get an instant signal that something interesting is happening.
**How to Set Your Jolt Value:**
The ideal jolt value is dynamic. You want to keep it just a little above the current VIX level to stay alert without getting too many false alarms.
| Current VIX Level | Market Regime | Recommended Jolt Value |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Under 15 | Calm/Complacent | 15–16 |
| 15–20 | Typical/Normal | 16–18 |
| 20–30 | Cautious/Active | 18–22 |
| Over 30 | Stress/Panic | 30+ |
**A Pro Tip for August 2025:** Since the VIX is hovering around 14.7, setting your jolt value to **16.5** is a great starting point for keeping an eye on things. If the VIX starts to climb above 20, you should adjust your jolt level to match the new reality.
***
### ⚠️ Important Things to Note
* You might experience some data delays if you're not on a paid TradingView plan or your broker does not provide real-time data for the VIX also VIX is only active during NY session, so it's not advised to use it outside of normal trading hours!
DXY Opening Zones - FixedFull Description:
Overview:
This indicator automates the identification of DXY (Dollar Index) opening zones, a cornerstone of the Funded Trader Academy's "Dixie Open" strategy. It marks the critical gap between market close and open, which acts as a magnetic attraction level for price action throughout the trading day.
Key Features:
✅ Automatic Gap Detection: Identifies opening gaps between market close (6:00 PM EST) and open (7:45 PM EST Sunday, 7:45 PM Mon-Thu)
✅ Smart Zone Expansion: Automatically expands zones when gaps are smaller than 20 pips to include prior candle highs/lows for better trading ranges
✅ Session Highlighting: Visual overlays for London (3 AM - 12 PM EST) and New York (8 AM - 5 PM EST) sessions
✅ Phantom Candle Filter: Ignores glitch/phantom candles smaller than 2 pips to prevent false zones
✅ Time-Based Zone Extension: Zones automatically extend to 5 PM EST (US market close) for full-day relevance
✅ 15-Minute Chart Optimization: Specifically designed for the 15-minute timeframe where the strategy performs best
✅ DXY-Only Protection: Built-in safeguards ensure the indicator only works on Dollar Index symbols
Trading Strategy Context:
The DXY Opening Level strategy capitalizes on the market's tendency to return to opening gaps, offering approximately 70-75% win rate when traded correctly. Best entries occur during London session (after 2:30 AM EST) when volume increases.
Ideal For:
Forex traders using DXY correlation strategies
Mean reversion and gap trading enthusiasts
Traders seeking high-probability setups with defined risk
Those following the Funded Trader Academy methodology
Settings Explained:
Zone Color: Customize the visual appearance of zones
Expand Zone Threshold: Adjust when zones should expand (default 20 pips)
Phantom Filter: Set minimum candle size to consider valid (default 2 pips)
Session Display: Toggle London/NY session backgrounds
Debug Mode: View detailed gap measurements and timing information
Important Notes:
Must be used on 15-minute DXY/Dollar Index charts
Zones mark attraction levels, not direct entry points
Always wait for valid entry signals (engulfing, pin bar, 3-bar reversal)
Trade correlated forex pairs, not DXY directly
Best results during London session (2:30 AM - 12 PM EST)
Risk Disclaimer:
This indicator identifies potential trading zones based on historical patterns. Always use proper risk management and never risk more than you can afford to lose. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
OPR — DAX or USEnglish
This indicator automatically plots the Opening Price Range (OPR) for different indices, with customizable start and end times for each instrument.
For the DAX, it draws the high (green), low (red), and midline (grey dotted) for the specified range, defaulting to 09:00–09:15, and extends the lines until the selected end time (default 11:00).
For US indices (Dow Jones, Nasdaq, S&P500), it applies the same logic for the default 15:30–15:45 range, with two vertical black bars marking the start and end of the time window.
Each symbol only displays its own relevant lines (e.g., viewing DAX will only show DAX markers).
Parameters allow adjusting times and visibility for each market.
Floating Bands of the Argentine Peso (Sebastian.Waisgold)
The BCRA ( Central Bank of the Argentine Republic ) announced that as of Monday, April 15, 2025, the Argentine Peso (USDARS) will float within a system of divergent exchange rate bands.
The upper band was set at ARS 1400 per USD on 15/04/2025, with a +1% monthly adjustment distributed daily, rising by a fraction each day.
The lower band was set at ARS 1000 per USD on 15/04/2025, with a –1% monthly adjustment distributed daily, falling by a fraction each day.
This indicator is crucial for anyone trading USDARS, since the BCRA will only intervene in these situations:
- Selling : if the Peso depreciates against the USD above the upper band .
- Buying : if the Peso appreciates against the USD below the lower band .
Therefore, this indicator can be used as follows:
- If USDARS is above the upper band , it is “expensive” and you may sell .
- If USDARS is below the lower band , it is “cheap” and you may buy .
It can also be applied to other assets such as:
- USDTARS
- Dollar Cable / CCL (Contado con Liquidación) , derived from the BCBA:YPFD / NYSE:YPF ratio.
A mid band —exactly halfway between the upper and lower bands—has also been added.
Once added, the indicator should look like this:
In the following image you can see:
- Upper Floating Band
- Lower Floating Band
- Mid Floating Band
User Configuration
By double-clicking any line you can adjust:
- Start day (Dia de incio), month (Mes de inicio), and year (Año de inicio)
- Initial upper band value (Valor inicial banda superior)
- Initial lower band value (Valor inicial banda inferior)
- Monthly rate Tasa mensual %)
It is recommended not to modify these settings for the Argentine Peso, as they reflect the BCRA’s official framework. However, you may customize them—and the line colors—for other assets or currencies implementing a similar band scheme.

Mutanabby_AI | Ultimate Algo | Remastered+Overview
The Mutanabby_AI Ultimate Algo Remastered+ represents a sophisticated trend-following system that combines Supertrend analysis with multiple moving average confirmations. This comprehensive indicator is designed specifically for identifying high-probability trend continuation and reversal opportunities across various market conditions.
Core Algorithm Components
**Supertrend Foundation**: The primary signal generation relies on a customizable Supertrend indicator with adjustable sensitivity (1-20 range). This adaptive trend-following tool uses Average True Range calculations to establish dynamic support and resistance levels that respond to market volatility.
**SMA Confirmation Matrix**: Multiple Simple Moving Averages (SMA 4, 5, 9, 13) provide layered confirmation for signal strength. The algorithm distinguishes between regular signals and "Strong" signals based on SMA 4 vs SMA 5 relationship, offering traders different conviction levels for position sizing.
**Trend Ribbon Visualization**: SMA 21 and SMA 34 create a visual trend ribbon that changes color based on their relationship. Green ribbon indicates bullish momentum while red signals bearish conditions, providing immediate visual trend context.
**RSI-Based Candle Coloring**: Advanced 61-tier RSI system colors candles with gradient precision from deep red (RSI ≤20) through purple transitions to bright green (RSI ≥79). This visual enhancement helps traders instantly assess momentum strength and overbought/oversold conditions.
Signal Generation Logic
**Buy Signal Criteria**:
- Price crosses above Supertrend line
- Close price must be above SMA 9 (trend confirmation)
- Signal strength determined by SMA 4 vs SMA 5 relationship
- "Strong Buy" when SMA 4 ≥ SMA 5
- Regular "Buy" when SMA 4 < SMA 5
**Sell Signal Criteria**:
- Price crosses below Supertrend line
- Close price must be below SMA 9 (trend confirmation)
- Signal strength based on SMA relationship
- "Strong Sell" when SMA 4 ≤ SMA 5
- Regular "Sell" when SMA 4 > SMA 5
Advanced Risk Management System
**Automated TP/SL Calculation**: The indicator automatically calculates stop loss and take profit levels using ATR-based measurements. Risk percentage and ATR length are fully customizable, allowing traders to adapt to different market conditions and personal risk tolerance.
**Multiple Take Profit Targets**:
- 1:1 Risk-Reward ratio for conservative profit taking
- 2:1 Risk-Reward for balanced trade management
- 3:1 Risk-Reward for maximum profit potential
**Visual Risk Display**: All risk management levels appear as both labels and optional trend lines on the chart. Customizable line styles (solid, dashed, dotted) and positioning ensure clear visualization without chart clutter.
**Dynamic Level Updates**: Risk levels automatically recalculate with each new signal, maintaining current market relevance throughout position lifecycles.
Visual Enhancement Features
**Customizable Display Options**: Toggle trend ribbon, TP/SL levels, and risk lines independently. Decimal precision adjustments (1-8 decimal places) accommodate different instrument price formats and personal preferences.
**Professional Label System**: Clean, informative labels show entry points, stop losses, and take profit targets with precise price levels. Labels automatically position themselves for optimal chart readability.
**Color-Coded Momentum**: The gradient RSI candle coloring system provides instant visual feedback on momentum strength, helping traders assess market energy and potential reversal zones.
Implementation Strategy
**Timeframe Optimization**: The algorithm performs effectively across multiple timeframes, with higher timeframes (4H, Daily) providing more reliable signals for swing trading. Lower timeframes work well for day trading with appropriate risk adjustments.
**Sensitivity Adjustment**: Lower sensitivity values (1-5) generate fewer but higher-quality signals, ideal for conservative approaches. Higher sensitivity (15-20) increases signal frequency for active trading styles.
**Risk Management Integration**: Use the automated risk calculations as baseline parameters, adjusting risk percentage based on account size and market conditions. The 1:1, 2:1, 3:1 targets enable systematic profit-taking strategies.
Market Application
**Trend Following Excellence**: Primary strength lies in capturing significant trend movements through the Supertrend foundation with SMA confirmation. The dual-layer approach reduces false signals common in single-indicator systems.
**Momentum Assessment**: RSI-based candle coloring provides immediate momentum context, helping traders assess signal strength and potential continuation probability.
**Range Detection**: The trend ribbon helps identify ranging conditions when SMA 21 and SMA 34 converge, alerting traders to potential breakout opportunities.
Performance Optimization
**Signal Quality**: The requirement for both Supertrend crossover AND SMA 9 confirmation significantly improves signal reliability compared to basic trend-following approaches.
**Visual Clarity**: The comprehensive visual system enables rapid market assessment without complex calculations, ideal for traders managing multiple instruments.
**Adaptability**: Extensive customization options allow fine-tuning for specific markets, trading styles, and risk preferences while maintaining the core algorithm integrity.
## Non-Repainting Design
**Educational Note**: This indicator uses standard TradingView functions (Supertrend, SMA, RSI) with normal behavior patterns. Real-time updates on current candles are expected and standard across all technical indicators. Historical signals on closed candles remain fixed and unchanged, ensuring reliable backtesting and analysis.
**Signal Confirmation**: Final signals are confirmed only when candles close, following standard technical analysis principles. The algorithm provides clear distinction between developing signals and confirmed entries.
Technical Specifications
**Supertrend Parameters**: Default sensitivity of 4 with ATR length of 11 provides balanced signal generation. Sensitivity range from 1-20 allows adaptation to different market volatilities and trading preferences.
**Moving Average Configuration**: SMA periods of 8, 9, and 13 create multi-layered trend confirmation, while SMA 21 and 34 form the visual trend ribbon for broader market context.
**Risk Management**: ATR-based calculations with customizable risk percentage ensure dynamic adaptation to market volatility while maintaining consistent risk exposure principles.
Recommended Settings
**Conservative Approach**: Sensitivity 4-5, RSI length 14, higher timeframes (4H, Daily) for swing trading with maximum signal reliability.
**Active Trading**: Sensitivity 6-8, RSI length 8-10, intermediate timeframes (1H) for balanced signal frequency and quality.
**Scalping Setup**: Sensitivity 10-15, RSI length 5-8, lower timeframes (15-30min) with enhanced risk management protocols.
## Conclusion
The Mutanabby_AI Ultimate Algo Remastered+ combines proven trend-following principles with modern visual enhancements and comprehensive risk management. The algorithm's strength lies in its multi-layered confirmation approach and automated risk calculations, providing both novice and experienced traders with clear signals and systematic trade management.
Success with this system requires understanding the relationship between signal strength indicators and adapting sensitivity settings to match current market conditions. The comprehensive visual feedback system enables rapid decision-making while the automated risk management ensures consistent trade parameters.
Practice with different sensitivity settings and timeframes to optimize performance for your specific trading style and risk tolerance. The algorithm's systematic approach provides an excellent framework for disciplined trend-following strategies across various market environments.
ai quant oculusAI QUANT OCULUS
Version 1.0 | Pine Script v6
Purpose & Innovation
AI QUANT OCULUS integrates four distinct technical concepts—exponential trend filtering, adaptive smoothing, momentum oscillation, and Gaussian smoothing—into a single, cohesive system that delivers clear, objective buy and sell signals along with automatically plotted stop-loss and three profit-target levels. This mash-up goes beyond a simple EMA crossover or standalone TRIX oscillator by requiring confluence across trend, adaptive moving averages, momentum direction, and smoothed price action, reducing false triggers and focusing on high‐probability turning points.
How It Works & Why Its Components Matter
Trend Filter: EMA vs. Adaptive MA
EMA (20) measures the prevailing trend with fixed sensitivity.
Adaptive MA (also EMA-based, length 10) approximates a faster-responding moving average, standing in for a KAMA-style filter.
Bullish bias requires AMA > EMA; bearish bias requires AMA < EMA. This ensures signals align with both the underlying trend and a more nimble view of recent price action.
Momentum Confirmation: TRIX
Calculates a triple-smoothed EMA of price over TRIX Length (15), then converts it to a percentage rate-of-change oscillator.
Positive TRIX reinforces bullish entries; negative TRIX reinforces bearish entries. Using TRIX helps filter whipsaws by focusing on sustained momentum shifts.
Gaussian Price Smoother
Applies two back-to-back 5-period EMAs to the price (“gaussian” smoothing) to remove short-term noise.
Price above the smoothed line confirms strength for longs; below confirms weakness for shorts. This layer avoids entries on erratic spikes.
Confluence Signals
Buy Signal (isBull) fires only when:
AMA > EMA (trend alignment)
TRIX > 0 (momentum support)
Close > Gaussian (price strength)
Sell Signal (isBear) fires under the inverse conditions.
Requiring all three conditions simultaneously sharply reduces false triggers common to single-indicator systems.
Automatic Risk & Reward Plotting
On each new buy or sell signal (edge detection via not isBull or not isBear ), the script:
Stores entryPrice at the signal bar’s close.
Draws a stop-loss line at entry minus ATR(14) × Stop Multiplier (1.5) by default.
Plots three profit-target lines at entry plus ATR × Target Multiplier (1×, 1.5×, and 2×).
All previous labels and lines are deleted on each new signal, keeping the chart uncluttered and focusing only on the current trade.
Inputs & Customization
Input Description Default
EMA Length Period for the main trend EMA 20
Adaptive MA Length Period for the faster adaptive EM A substitute 10
TRIX Length Period for the triple-smoothed momentum oscillator 15
Dominant Cycle Length (Reserved) 40
Stop Multiplier ATR multiple for stop-loss distance 1.5
Target Multiplier ATR multiple for first profit target 1.5
Show Buy/Sell Signals Toggle on-chart labels for entry signals On
How to Use
Apply to Chart: Best on 15 m–1 h timeframes for swing entries or 5 m for agile scalps.
Wait for Full Confluence:
Look for the AMA to cross above/below the EMA and verify TRIX and Gaussian conditions on the same bar.
A bright “LONG” or “SHORT” label marks your entry.
Manage the Trade:
Place your stop where the red or green SL line appears.
Scale or exit at the three yellow TP1/TP2/TP3 lines, automatically drawn by volatility.
Repeat Cleanly: Each new signal clears prior annotations, ensuring you only track the active setup.
Why This Script Stands Out
Multi-Layer Confluence: Trend, momentum, and noise-reduction must all align, addressing the weaknesses of single-indicator strategies.
Automated Trade Management: No manual plotting—stop and target lines appear seamlessly with each signal.

Pivot and Wick Boxes with Break Signals█ OVERVIEW
This Pine Script® indicator draws support and resistance levels based on high and low pivot points and the wicks of pivot candles. When the price breaks these levels, breakout signals are generated, with an optional volume filter for greater precision. The indicator is fully customizable, allowing users to adjust box styles, pivot length, and signal settings.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator relies on several key elements to identify and visualize important price levels and trading signals:
Pivot Identification
High and low pivots are detected using the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions with a configurable pivot length. Boxes are drawn based on the pivot level and the wick of the pivot candle (top for high pivots, bottom for low pivots).
List of Features
1 — High and Low Pivot Boxes: The indicator draws boxes based on high pivot candles (red) and low pivot candles (green) and their wicks, with options to customize colors, border styles, and background gradient. Boxes are limited to 500 bars back, meaning support and resistance levels older than 500 candles are not displayed to maintain chart clarity.
2 — Breakout Signals: When the price closes above the upper edge of a high pivot box, a breakout signal is generated (green triangle below the bar). When the price closes below the lower edge of a low pivot box, a breakout signal is generated (red triangle above the bar).
Signals can be filtered using volume, requiring the volume at the breakout to exceed the average volume multiplied by a configurable multiplier.
3 — Box Management: The indicator limits the number of displayed boxes (default is 15 for high pivots and 15 for low pivots), removing the oldest boxes when the limit is reached. Boxes older than 500 bars are automatically removed.
Volume Filtering
An optional volume filter allows users to require breakout signals to be confirmed by volume exceeding the moving average of volume (calculated over a selected period, default is 20 days).
█ OTHER SECTIONS
FEATURES
• Show High/Low Pivot Boxes: Enables or disables the display of boxes for high and low pivots.
• Pivot Length: Specifies the number of bars back and forward for detecting pivots (default is 5).
• Max Boxes: Sets the maximum number of boxes for high and low pivots (default is 15).
• Volume Filter: Enables a volume filter for breakout signals, with a configurable multiplier and average period.
• Box Style: Allows customization of border color, background gradient, border width, and border style (solid, dashed, dotted).
HOW TO USE
1 — Add the indicator to your TradingView chart by selecting “Pivot and Wick Boxes with Break Signals” from the indicators list.
2 — Configure the settings in the indicator’s dialog window, adjusting pivot length, maximum number of boxes, colors, and style.
3 — Enable the volume filter if you want signals to be confirmed by high volume.
4 — Monitor breakout signals (green triangles below bars for upward breakouts, red triangles above bars for downward breakouts) on the chart.
LIMITATIONS
• New pivots are detected with a delay equal to the set pivot length. A lower pivot length value results in faster pivot detection but produces pivots with less significance as support or resistance levels compared to those generated with a longer value.
• Breakout signals may produce false signals in volatile market conditions, especially without the volume filter.
• Boxes are limited to 500 bars back, which may exclude older pivots on long-term charts.
