Every Hour 1st/Last FVG vTDL OVERVIEW - Shoutout to Micheal J. Huddleston aka ICT
This indicator identifies the first Fair Value Gap (FVG) that forms within each trading hour, providing traders with potential entry zones, reversal points, and unmitigated gap targets. Based on the concept that the first presented FVG of each hour represents a significant price delivery array where institutional order flow occurred.
The indicator detects FVGs on a lower timeframe (1-minute default) and displays them as boxes on your chart, tracking which gaps get filled and which remain open as potential draw-on-liquidity targets.
WHAT IS A FAIR VALUE GAP
A Fair Value Gap is a 3-candle price pattern representing an imbalance between buyers and sellers:
Bullish FVG: Forms when candle 3's low is above candle 1's high, leaving a gap
Bearish FVG: Forms when candle 3's high is below candle 1's low, leaving a gap
These gaps often act as magnets for price, which tends to return and "fill" the imbalance before continuing. They function as dynamic support and resistance zones.
KEY FEATURES
Detection Types
FVG: Standard fair value gap detection with volume imbalance expansion
Suspension FVG Blocks: Requires outside prints on both sides for more refined signals
Hourly Display Modes
First Only: Shows whichever FVG appears first each hour (bullish or bearish)
Show Both: Shows first bullish AND first bearish FVG independently each hour
Last FVG Tracking
Optionally display the last FVG of each hour
Useful for comparing how the hour developed
Can extend into the next hour for continued tracking
Breakaway Gap Detection
Gaps not traded into during their formation hour extend forward
Extended gaps display labels showing formation time and date
These unmitigated gaps become price targets and reversal zones
Gap Fill Modes
Touch Box: Marks filled when price enters the gap
Touch Midpoint: Marks filled when price reaches the 50 percent level
Fill Completely: Marks filled when price fills the entire gap with visual progress
HOW TO USE
Entry Points
The first FVG of each hour provides potential entry zones based on price reaction:
When price returns to an FVG and shows rejection, enter in the direction of rejection
The gap zone represents where institutional orders likely reside
Use the boundaries of the gap for stop loss placement
A clean rejection of the zone confirms it as valid support or resistance
Reversal Points
Unmitigated gaps that extend beyond their formation hour are high-probability reaction zones:
Extended boxes with labels indicate unfilled gaps
When price finally reaches these zones, expect a reaction
The longer a gap remains unfilled, the stronger the expected response
These zones act as magnets drawing price back to them
Price Targets
Use unmitigated gaps as draw-on-liquidity targets:
Look for extended boxes above or below current price
Price tends to seek out and fill imbalances
The midpoint line often serves as a minimum target
Multiple unfilled gaps in one direction suggest strong momentum potential
FRAMING DIRECTIONAL BIAS
The first presented FVG of each hour acts as a support or resistance zone. The direction of the FVG itself does not determine bias - it is how price reacts to that FVG that reveals the true market intention.
Reading Price Reaction
Price respects a bullish FVG as support and bounces higher = bullish bias confirmed
Price respects a bearish FVG as resistance and rejects lower = bearish bias confirmed
Price fails to hold a bullish FVG and breaks through = potential inversion, look for shorts
Price fails to hold a bearish FVG and breaks through = potential inversion, look for longs
Inversion Fair Value Gaps (IFVG)
When price trades through an FVG and closes beyond it, that gap can invert its role:
A bullish FVG that fails becomes resistance - use it as a short entry zone
A bearish FVG that fails becomes support - use it as a long entry zone
The inversion signals a shift in control from one side to the other
Watch for price to retest the inverted gap before continuing
Support and Resistance Framework
Think of each hourly first FVG as a key level:
Price above the FVG: the gap acts as potential support
Price below the FVG: the gap acts as potential resistance
Watch how price behaves when it returns to the gap zone
A clean rejection confirms the level; a break through signals inversion
SHORT-TERM SCALPING APPLICATION
These FVGs provide scalping opportunities each hour:
Identify the first FVG of the hour as your key level
Wait for price to trade away from it and return
Observe the reaction at the gap zone
Enter in the direction of the reaction with tight risk
Target the next FVG, midpoint, or nearby liquidity
Trade Management
Use the opposite side of the FVG box as your stop loss zone
The midpoint of the gap often provides first target or decision point
Scale out at nearby unmitigated gaps or key levels
If the gap inverts, flip your bias and look for entries in the new direction
MULTI-HOUR CONTEXT
If price consistently respects FVGs as support across hours = uptrend context
If price consistently respects FVGs as resistance across hours = downtrend context
If FVGs keep inverting = choppy or transitional market
Use higher timeframe direction to filter which reactions to trade
Compare first and last FVG of each hour to see how momentum developed
SESSION FILTERING
The indicator automatically excludes unreliable periods:
4 PM to 5 PM New York time (market close hours 16-17)
Weekend closed periods (Saturday and Sunday before 6 PM)
All timestamps use New York timezone for consistency with futures market hours.

PRACTICAL TIPS
The first FVG of each hour is a hidden PD array - treat it as a significant level
Not every gap produces a tradeable reaction - wait for confirmation
Gaps that remain unfilled for multiple hours carry more weight
Use the Show Both mode to see both bullish and bearish opportunities each hour
When multiple gaps cluster in one zone, that area becomes even more significant
Inversions are powerful signals - a failed level often leads to acceleration
NOTES
Works on any instrument and timeframe
Best used on intraday charts (1 minute to 15 minute) viewing 1 minute LTF gaps
Combine with higher timeframe analysis for confluence
These are probability zones, not guarantees - always use proper risk management
The indicator handles HTF to LTF data fetching automatically

Trendshift [CHE]Trendshift — First-Shift Regime Turns with Premium/Discount Context
Summary
Trendshift highlights the first confirmed directional structure shift in price and overlays a premium or discount context based on the most recent structural range. It identifies the major swing levels, detects a regime transition when price closes beyond these levels with optional ATR-based conviction, and marks only the first shift per direction to reduce repetition and noise. The indicator then establishes a premium or discount band around the break and tints the background when price operates in either region. This produces a clean regime-aware view that emphasizes only the earliest actionable turn while maintaining contextual bias information.
Motivation: Why this design?
Conventional swing-based structure tools often fire repeated signals after each minor break, especially in volatile environments. This leads to cluttered charts and little informational value. Trendshift focuses on the core trading need: isolating the first confirmed change in directional structure and providing a premium or discount context after the break. By limiting signals to the initial flip and suppressing further markers until direction reverses again, the script reduces noise and highlights only the structural event that materially matters. The band logic further addresses the challenge of distinguishing contextual extremes and avoiding trades taken too late after a shift.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Baseline reference: Most structure indicators repeatedly plot every new break of a swing high or swing low.
Differences:
Only the first confirmed bullish or bearish shift is plotted until the opposite direction occurs.
ATR-filtered breakout validation to reduce false breaks during volatility spikes.
A reduced premium and discount band derived from the breakout candle and prior swing structure.
Tinted background for contextual positioning rather than explicit entry signals.
Practical effect:
Fewer but more meaningful shift markers.
Clear visual context of where price operates relative to the structural band.
Cleaner regime transitions and less chart clutter.
How it works (technical)
The indicator continuously evaluates major swing highs and lows using a symmetric window length. When a swing is confirmed, the script stores its price and bar index. A structure shift occurs when price closes beyond the most recent major swing in the opposite direction. Optional ATR filtering requires the breakout distance to exceed an ATR-scaled threshold.
Upon a confirmed shift, the script sets a regime state that remains active until a new shift or an optional timeout. It also establishes a structural band anchored between the breakout candle extremum and the prior opposite swing. The band informs the premium and discount boundaries, each representing a quarter subdivision.
Only the first shift event per direction generates a visual triangle marker. The band is validated by comparing its height to ATR to avoid extremely narrow structures. Background tinting activates whenever price resides within the premium or discount zones. Persistent variables maintain previous structural states and prevent re-triggering until direction reverses.
Parameter Guide
Swing length (default 5): Controls the number of bars used on each side of a swing. Smaller values are more reactive; larger values reduce noise.
Use ATR filter (default true): Requires breakout strength beyond the swing to exceed an ATR-scaled threshold. Disabling increases signal frequency.
ATR length (default 14): Controls volatility estimation for breakout filtering and band validation.
Break ATR multiplier (default 1.0): Higher values require stronger breakouts, reducing false shifts.
Enable framework (default true): Activates the premium and discount context logic.
Persist band on timeout (default true): Retains the current band after a regime timeout.
Min band size ATR mult (default 0.5): Rejects extremely small bands and prevents unrealistic tinting.
Regime timeout bars (default 500): Resets the regime after extended inactivity.
Invert colors (default false): Swaps premium and discount tint color assignments.
Show zone tint (default true): Toggles background shading.
Show shift markers (default true): Enables or disables the first-shift triangles.
Reading & Interpretation
A green or red tint signals that price is operating in the discount or premium region of the most recent structural band. These regions are derived from the breakout event and the prior swing. A green triangle below a bar indicates the first bullish structure shift after a bearish regime. A red triangle above a bar indicates the first bearish shift after a bullish regime. No further markers appear until direction reverses. When tint is active, price location within the band offers simple contextual bias without providing explicit entries.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Treat the first bullish marker as the earliest confirmation of a potential up-regime and the first bearish marker for a potential down-regime. Use price location relative to the premium and discount zones as context for continuation or mean-reversion setups.
Structure-based execution: Combine with simple swing highs and lows to refine entry points within discount after a bullish shift or within premium after a bearish shift.
Higher-timeframe overlays: Apply the indicator on higher timeframes to define macro structure, then trade on lower timeframes using the band as a contextual anchor.
Risk management: When price stays in premium during a bearish regime or in discount during a bullish regime, consider protective actions or position management adjustments.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
The script uses only confirmed swing points and closed-bar conditions, so repainting from future bars does not occur except the inherent delay of pivot confirmation. No higher-timeframe security calls are used, avoiding HTF repaint paths.
Performance impact is minimal because the script uses no loops or arrays and relies on persistent variables. The maximum bars back setting is five-thousand, required for swing lookback. Known limitations include quiet behavior during long consolidations, occasional delayed recognition of shifts due to swing confirmation, and limited effectiveness during large market gaps where extremum logic may be distorted.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tunin g
Increase the swing length for smoother trend shifts and fewer signals.
Decrease the swing length for more sensitivity.
Raise the ATR breakout multiplier to reduce noise in volatile markets.
Lower the band size requirement to make premium and discount zones more active on slower markets.
Extend the regime timeout for slow-moving assets.

Apex Trend & Liquidity Master (SMC)v7.2The Apex Trend & Liquidity Master (SMC)v7.2 is a comprehensive trading system designed to solve a specific problem: how to integrate Trend Following, Classic Supply & Demand, and Smart Money Concepts (SMC) onto a single chart without creating visual chaos.
Most indicators force traders to choose between high-lag trend filters or noisy price action concepts. This script combines both into a unified workflow. It uses a sophisticated "Ghost Mode" transparency engine to keep internal market structures subtle, ensuring the trader's focus remains on price action and the dominant trend.
Core Philosophy
This tool operates on the principle of "External Trend, Internal Liquidity." It forces the trader to respect the macro direction (Trend Cloud) while using micro-structure (FVGs, Order Blocks) for precision entries.
Key Features
Trend Architecture (The Context) The foundation of the script is a dynamic Hull Moving Average (HMA) combined with ATR volatility bands. This creates a "Trend Cloud" that visualizes the dominant market state.
Teal Cloud: Bullish Context (Look for Longs).
Maroon Cloud: Bearish Context (Look for Shorts).
Classic Liquidity (The Targets) The script identifies major Swing Highs and Swing Lows based on pivot sensitivity. These are rendered as solid blocks and represent "External Liquidity." These are your primary Take Profit targets or major reversal zones.
Smart Money Concepts (The Entry) The script automatically detects internal market structure, including:
BOS (Break of Structure): Signals trend continuation.
CHoCH (Change of Character): Signals potential trend reversal.
Order Blocks & FVGs: Institutional footprints that act as magnets for price. These feature "Ghost Mode" styling (high transparency, no borders) and "Auto-Mitigation" (they are deleted immediately when price closes through them) to keep the chart clean.
Signal & Risk Engine
Entry Signals: Momentum-based Buy/Sell labels that filter out chop using ADX.
Trailing Stop: A Chandelier-style ATR trailing stop line to assist in trade management and locking in profits.
Visual Legend & Color Hierarchy
To allow for instant chart processing, the colors follow a strict hierarchy:
Context (Dark/Deep Colors): The Trend Cloud and Bar Colors use Deep Teal and Maroon. These indicate the background environment.
Action (Neon Colors): Signals, BOS/CHoCH lines, and the Trailing Stop use Neon Green and Neon Red. These require immediate attention.
Major Levels (Solid Colors): Classic Supply & Demand zones use Standard Forest Green and Brick Red. These are hard targets.
Internal Zones (Pale/Ghost Colors): Order Blocks and FVGs use Pale Mint and Pale Rose with high transparency. These are background areas of interest for entries.
How to Use This Indicator
For the highest probability setups, use a "Confluence Approach" rather than trading signals in isolation:
Identify Direction: Look at the Trend Cloud. Do not trade against the color of the cloud.
Wait for Pullback: Wait for price to retrace into a "Ghost Zone" (Fair Value Gap or Order Block) nested inside the trend.
Wait for Trigger: Look for a Neon "Buy" or "Sell" signal, or a BOS line break in the direction of the trend.
Manage Risk: Use the Trailing Stop line to manage your position.
Target Liquidity: Aim for the solid Classic Supply/Demand zones as exit points.
Settings & Customization
Trend Length: Default is 55 (Swing). Lower this to 20-30 for Scalping.
Signal Toggles: Signals and Trailing Stops are enabled by default but can be toggled off for a pure price-action view.
Sensitivity: The Pivot Lookback (Default 10) controls how many Supply/Demand zones appear.

🎓 UNDERSTANDING THE METHODOLOGY
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
This indicator is built on three core concepts:
1. ORDER FLOW THEORY
Markets move between premium (expensive) and discount (cheap) zones. Smart money accumulates in discount zones and distributes in premium zones. This indicator identifies these zones automatically.
2. ADAPTIVE TREND FOLLOWING
Unlike fixed-period moving averages, the Elite Trend Engine adjusts to current market volatility, providing more accurate trend signals in both trending and ranging conditions.
3. CONFLUENCE-BASED ENTRIES
Signals only trigger when multiple conditions align:
- Price in correct zone (premium for shorts, discount for longs)
- Trend confirmation (cloud color matches direction)
- Volume validation (spike or climax present)
- Price action strength (strong rejection candles)
This multi-layer approach dramatically reduces false signals.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🔔 ALERT SETUP
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
This indicator includes 5 alert types:
1. Long Signal → Triggers when buy conditions met
2. Short Signal → Triggers when sell conditions met
3. Volume Climax → Warns of pot
Double MOST with Pivot and EMAMOST Long Strategy with Multi-Filter Confirmation (Pivot + VAR Trend Filter)
This strategy combines a custom MOST stop-line structure with a moving average trend filter (EMA / VAR / ZLMA), daily pivot levels, and a 9-period VAR filter to generate clean long-only entries.
It aims to capture early trend continuations while avoiding reversals and false breakouts.
✔ Buy Conditions
A long position is opened only if all of the conditions below occur simultaneously:
MA (ort) > MOST Line (s2)
– Confirms that momentum is on the long side.
Price > Daily Pivot (pvt_gun)
– Ensures the market is trading above the day’s fair-value level.
Price > VAR(9)
– Short-term VAR filter to confirm trend strength and reduce noise.
Only the first bar where all conditions turn true generates a position.
✔ Sell Condition
A long position is closed when:
MOST Line (s2) crosses above MA (ort)
– Indicates a momentum shift against the long position.
✔ Execution Style (MetaStock-like)
Strategy operates long-only
Orders are filled on the next bar open, not on the signal bar
Commission: 0.03% (3 bps / on-binde 3)
Position size: 100% of equity per trade
This makes the behavior comparable to classical MetaStock backtesting logic.
✔ Chart Markers
Only actual trade entries and exits are drawn
No repeated signals or overlapping markers
Clean visual trade history
Purpose
This strategy is ideal for traders who want:
A structured long-only trend model
A multi-layer confirmation filter
Clean execution without repaint
High-quality entries above market structure levels

[CT] Donchian Histogram w/Candle ColorsDonchian Histogram, originally created by RafaelZioni and enhanced with optional price bar coloring, is a momentum-style oscillator that shows where the current close sits inside a dynamic Donchian channel and how that position is evolving over time. The script calculates a rolling high and low over a multi-session lookback period based on your chosen Donchian timeframe, then normalizes the close within that range to create a percentage position between the recent high and low. This normalized value is smoothed with a signal length and plotted as a histogram around a zero line, making it easy to see whether price is pressing toward the upper side of its recent range, the lower side, or oscillating near the middle. Positive values indicate that price is trading closer to the Donchian high, negative values indicate price is closer to the Donchian low, and the magnitude of the histogram reflects how strongly price is favoring one side of the range. The color logic highlights this state visually: stronger positive conditions can be shown in teal, moderate positive conditions in lime, stronger negative conditions in red, and neutral or transitional states in orange. The script also includes an option to color the actual chart candles with the same colors as the histogram, so traders can see Donchian-based pressure directly on the main price chart without constantly looking down at the lower pane. The indicator works on completed bars using standard highest/lowest and moving average functions, so it behaves like a normal oscillator and does not use any lookahead tricks. It is best used as a contextual tool to gauge whether price is pushing to the edges of its recent range or reverting toward balance, and to visually synchronize that information with candle colors when desired.
Relative Strength Heatmap [BackQuant]Relative Strength Heatmap
A multi-horizon RSI matrix that compresses 20 different lookbacks into a single panel, turning raw momentum into a visual “pressure gauge” for overbought and oversold clustering, trend exhaustion, and breadth of participation across time horizons.
What this is
This indicator builds a strip-style heatmap of 20 RSIs, each with a different length, and stacks them vertically as colored tiles in a single pane. Every tile is colored by its RSI value using your chosen palette, so you can see at a glance:
How many “fast” versus “slow” RSIs are overbought or oversold.
Whether momentum is concentrated in the short lookbacks or spread across the whole curve.
When momentum extremes cluster, signalling strong market pressure or exhaustion.
On top of the tiles, the script plots two simple breadth lines:
A white line that counts how many RSIs are above 70 (overbought cluster).
A black line that counts how many RSIs are below 30 (oversold cluster).
This turns a single symbol’s RSI ladder into a compact “market pressure gauge” that shows not only whether RSI is overbought or oversold, but how many different horizons agree at the same time.
Core idea
A single RSI looks at one length and one timescale. Markets, however, are driven by flows that operate on multiple horizons at once. By computing RSI over a ladder of lengths, you approximate a “term structure” of strength:
Short lengths react to immediate swings and very recent impulses.
Medium lengths reflect swing behaviour and local trends.
Long lengths reflect structural bias and higher timeframe regime.
When many lengths agree, for example 10 or more RSIs all above 70, it suggests broad participation and strong directional pressure. When only a few fast lengths stretch to extremes while longer ones stay neutral, the move is more fragile and more likely to mean-revert.
This script makes that structure visible as a heatmap instead of forcing you to run many separate RSI panes.
How it works
1) Generating RSI lengths
You control three parameters in the calculation settings:
RS Period – the base RSI length used for the shortest strip.
RSI Step – the amount added to each successive RSI length.
RSI Multiplier – a global scaling factor applied after the step.
Each of the 20 RSIs uses:
RSI length = round((base_length + step × index) × multiplier) , where the index goes from 0 to 19.
That means:
RSI 1 uses (len + step × 0) × mult.
RSI 2 uses (len + step × 1) × mult.
…
RSI 20 uses (len + step × 19) × mult.
You can keep the ladder dense (small step and multiplier) or stretch it across much longer horizons.
2) Heatmap layout and grouping
Each RSI is plotted as an “area” strip at a fixed vertical level using histbase to stack them:
RSI 1–5 form Group 1.
RSI 6–10 form Group 2.
RSI 11–15 form Group 3.
RSI 16–20 form Group 4.
Each group has a toggle:
Show only Group 1 and 2 if you care mainly about fast and medium horizons.
Show all groups for a full spectrum from very short to very long.
Hide any group that feels redundant for your workflow.
The actual numeric RSI values are not plotted as lines. Instead, each strip is drawn as a horizontal band whose fill color represents the current RSI regime.
3) Palette-based coloring
Each tile’s color is driven by the RSI value and your chosen palette. The script includes several palettes:
Viridis – smooth green to yellow, good for subtle reading.
Jet – strong blue to red sequence with high contrast.
Plasma – purple through orange to yellow.
Custom Heat – cool blues to neutral grey to hot reds.
Gray – grayscale from white to black for minimalistic layouts.
Cividis, Inferno, Magma, Turbo, Rainbow – additional scientific and rainbow-style maps.
Internally, RSI values are bucketed into ranges (for example, below 10, 10–20, …, 90–100). Each bucket maps to a unique colour for that palette. In all schemes, low RSI values are mapped to the “cold” or darker side and high RSI values to the “hot” or brighter side.
The result is a true momentum heatmap:
Cold or dark tiles show low RSI and oversold or compressed conditions.
Mid tones show neutral or mid-range RSI.
Warm or bright tiles show high RSI and overbought or stretched conditions.
4) Bull and bear breadth counts
All 20 RSI values are collected into an array each bar. Two counters are then calculated:
Bull count – how many RSIs are above 70.
Bear count – how many RSIs are below 30.
These are plotted as:
A white line (“RSI > 70 Count”) for the overbought cluster.
A black line (“RSI < 30 Count”) for the oversold cluster.
If you enable the “Show Bull and Bear Count” option, you get an immediate reading of how many of the 20 horizons are stretched at any moment.
5) Cluster alerts and background tagging
Two alert conditions monitor “strong cluster” regimes:
RSI Heatmap Strong Bull – triggers when at least 10 RSIs are above 70.
RSI Heatmap Strong Bear – triggers when at least 10 RSIs are below 30.
When one of these conditions is true, the indicator can tint the background of the chart using a soft version of the current palette. This visually marks stretches where momentum is extreme across many lengths at once, not just on a single RSI.
What it plots
In one oscillator window, the indicator provides:
Up to 20 horizontal RSI strips, each representing a different RSI length.
Color-coded tiles reflecting the current RSI value for each length.
Group toggles to show or hide each block of five RSIs.
An optional white line that counts how many RSIs are above 70.
An optional black line that counts how many RSIs are below 30.
Optional background highlights when the number of overbought or oversold RSIs passes the strong-cluster threshold.
How it measures breadth and pressure
Single-symbol breadth
Breadth is usually defined across a basket of symbols, such as how many stocks advance versus decline. This indicator uses the same concept across time horizons for a single symbol. The question becomes:
“How many different RSI lengths are stretched in the same direction at once?”
Examples:
If only 2 or 3 of the shortest RSIs are above 70, bull count stays low. The move is fast and local, but not yet broadly supported.
If 12 or more RSIs across short, medium and long lengths are above 70, the bull count spikes. The move has broad momentum and strong upside pressure.
If 10 or more RSIs are below 30, bear count spikes and you are in a broad oversold regime.
This is breadth of momentum within one market.
Market pressure gauge
The combination of heatmap tiles and breadth lines acts as a pressure gauge:
High bull count with warm colors across most strips indicates strong upside pressure and crowded long positioning.
High bear count with cold colors across most strips indicates strong downside pressure and capitulation or forced selling.
Low counts with a mixed heatmap indicate neutral pressure, fragmented flows, or range-bound conditions.
You can treat the strong-cluster alerts as “extreme pressure” signals. When they fire, the market is heavily skewed in one direction across many horizons.
How to read the heatmap
Horizontal patterns (through time)
Look along the time axis and watch how the colors evolve:
Persistent hot tiles across many strips show sustained bullish pressure and trend strength.
Persistent cold tiles across many strips show sustained bearish pressure and weak demand.
Frequent flipping between hot and cold colours indicates a choppy or mean-reverting environment.
Vertical structure (across lengths at one bar)
Focus on a single bar and read the column of tiles from top to bottom:
Short RSIs hot, long RSIs neutral or cool: early trend or short-term fomo. Price has moved fast, longer horizons have not caught up.
Short and long RSIs all hot: mature, entrenched uptrend. Broad participation, high pressure, greater risk of blow-off or late-entry vulnerability.
Short RSIs cold but long RSIs mid to high: pullback in a higher timeframe uptrend. Dip-buy and continuation setups are often found here.
Short RSIs high but long RSIs low: countertrend rallies within a broader downtrend. Good hunting ground for fades and short entries after a bounce.
Bull and bear breadth lines
Use the two lines as simple, numeric breadth indicators:
A rising white line shows more RSIs pushing above 70, so bullish pressure is expanding in breadth.
A rising black line shows more RSIs pushing below 30, so bearish pressure is expanding in breadth.
When both lines are low and flat, few horizons are extreme and the market is in mid-range territory.
Cluster zones
When either count crosses the strong threshold (for example 10 out of 20 RSIs in extreme territory):
A strong bull cluster marks a broadly overbought regime. Trend followers may see this as confirmation. Mean-reversion traders may see it as a late-stage or blow-off context.
A strong bear cluster marks a broadly oversold regime. Downtrend traders see strong pressure, but the risk of sharp short-covering bounces also increases.
Trading applications
Trend confirmation
Use the heatmap and breadth lines as a trend filter:
Prefer long setups when the heatmap shows mostly mid to high RSIs and the bull count is rising.
Avoid fresh shorts when there is a strong bull cluster, unless you are specifically trading exhaustion.
Prefer short setups when the heatmap is mostly low RSIs and the bear count is rising.
Avoid aggressive longs when a strong bear cluster is active, unless you are trading reflexive bounces.
Mean-reversion timing
Treat cluster extremes as exhaustion zones:
Look for reversal patterns, failed breakouts, or order flow shifts when bull count is very high and price starts to stall or diverge.
Look for reflexive bounce potential when bear count is very high and price stops making new lows or shows absorption at the lows.
Use the palette and counts together: hot tiles plus a peaking white line can mark blow-off conditions, cold tiles plus a peaking black line can mark capitulation.
Regime detection and risk toggling
Use the overall shape of the ladder over time:
If upper strips stay warm and lower strips stay neutral or warm for extended periods, the market is in an uptrend regime. You can justify higher risk for long-biased strategies.
If upper strips stay cold and lower strips stay neutral or cold, the market is in a downtrend regime. You can justify higher risk for short-biased strategies or defensive positioning.
If colours and counts flip frequently, you are likely in a range or choppy regime. Consider reducing size or using more tactical, short-term strategies.
Multi-horizon synchronization
You can think of each RSI length as a proxy for a different “speed” of the same market:
When only fast RSIs are stretched, the move is local and less robust.
When fast, medium and slow RSIs align, the move has multi-horizon confirmation.
You can require a minimum bull or bear count before allowing your main strategy to engage.
Spotting hidden shifts
Sometimes price appears flat or drifting, but the heatmap quietly cools or warms:
If price is sideways while many hot tiles fade toward neutral, momentum is decaying under the surface and trend risk is increasing.
If price is sideways while many cold tiles climb back toward neutral, selling pressure is decaying and the tape is repairing itself.

Tuning guidance
Fast, tactical configurations
Use a small base RS Period, for example 2 to 5.
Use a small RSI Step, for tight clustering around the fast horizon.
Keep the multiplier near 1.0 to avoid extreme long lengths.
Focus on Group 1 and Group 2 for intraday and short-term trading.
Swing and position configurations
Use a mid-range RS Period, for example 7 to 14.
Use a moderate RSI Step to fan out into slower horizons.
Optionally use a multiplier slightly above 1.0.
Keep all four groups enabled for a full view from fast to slow.
Macro or higher timeframe configurations
Use a larger base RS Period.
Use a larger RSI Step so the top of the ladder reaches very slow lengths.
Focus on Group 3 and Group 4 to see structural momentum.
Treat clusters as regime markers rather than frequent trading signals.
Notes
This indicator is a contextual tool, not a standalone trading system. It does not model execution, spreads, slippage or fundamental drivers. Use it to:
Understand whether momentum is narrow or broad across horizons.
Confirm or filter existing signals from your primary strategy.
Identify environments where the market is crowded into one side.
Distinguish between isolated spikes and truly broad pressure moves.
The Relative Strength Heatmap is designed to answer a simple but powerful question:
“How many versions of RSI agree with what I am seeing on the chart?”
By compressing those answers into a single panel with clear colour coding and breadth lines, it becomes a practical, visual gauge of momentum breadth and market pressure that you can overlay on any trading framework.
Granville 8-Rule Engine — v6Description:
The Granville 8-Rule Engine systematically implements Joseph Granville's eight original trading rules, which provide a comprehensive framework for interpreting price action relative to a moving average to identify genuine trend changes and avoid false signals.
Granville's methodology focuses on the critical relationship between price movement and the direction of the moving average, recognizing that valid trend changes and continuations exhibit specific behavioral patterns while false breakouts and reversals show characteristic divergences.
The indicator evaluates all eight of Granville's rules and assigns a composite score based on their fulfillment:
Bullish Rules:
Rule 1: Price crosses above a rising moving average (+3 points)
Rule 2: Price remains above a rising moving average after testing support (+2 points)
Rule 3: Price remains above a rising moving average after penetrating below it (+1 point)
Rule 4: Moving average changes from declining to rising (+1 point)
Bearish Rules:
Rule 5: Price crosses below a declining moving average (-3 points)
Rule 6: Price remains below a declining moving average after testing resistance (-2 points)
Rule 7: Price remains below a declining moving average after penetrating above it (-1 point)
The indicator incorporates volume confirmation by adding or subtracting additional points when significant volume accompanies the fulfillment of bullish or bearish rules, respectively.
A buy signal is generated when the composite score reaches +4 or higher, indicating multiple bullish rules are simultaneously satisfied. A sell signal is generated when the score reaches -4 or lower, indicating multiple bearish rules are in effect.
This systematic approach filters out many false breakout and whipsaw signals by requiring multiple confirmatory conditions rather than relying on simple moving average crossovers. The scoring mechanism provides a quantitative measure of the strength of the prevailing trend relationship, enabling traders to distinguish between genuine trend development and deceptive price movements that fail to confirm with the moving average direction.
The Granville 8-Rule Engine provides a disciplined, rule-based method for determining whether price movements represent valid trend continuation, genuine trend reversal, or potentially misleading counter-trend activity that is likely to fail. By requiring multiple confirmatory conditions from Granville's established rules, the indicator helps traders avoid premature entries and provides higher-probability signals for participating in sustained trend movements.
Adaptive Support & Resistance ProAdaptive Support & Resistance Pro – Description
Adaptive Support & Resistance Pro is an advanced S/R tool designed to automatically identify key support and resistance zones based on a combination of RSI, CMO dynamics, and pivot logic. This indicator provides precise and reactive levels that form only when specific technical conditions are met, filtering out noise and delivering more reliable S/R signals.
It is ideal for technical traders who want to understand where price naturally pauses, reverses, or consolidates—without the need to manually draw lines on every chart.
🔍 Key Features
1. Automatic Support & Resistance Detection

Zig Zag & Trendlines with Dynamic Threshold ATRPercentage Zig Zag with Dynamic Threshold
This Pine Script indicator is an advanced Zig Zag tool that identifies and tracks price pivots based on a percentage move required for reversal, offering a clear visual representation of volatility-adjusted trends.
Core Functionality (The Reversal Threshold):
Unlike standard Zig Zag indicators that use a fixed price difference, this indicator calculates the required reversal size (%X) dynamically using the Average True Range (ATR).
It calculates the ATR as a percentage of the current price (ATR%).
The final threshold is this ATR% multiplied by a user-defined factor (default 3x).
This means the reversal threshold is wider during volatile periods and narrower during quiet periods, adapting automatically to market conditions. Users can optionally revert to a fixed percentage if desired.
Trend Extension Lines:
The indicator draws two unique, dynamic trend lines connecting the last two significant Highs and the last two significant Lows. Crucially, these lines do not wait for the entire Zig Zag leg to confirm:
If the price is actively forming a new up-leg, the High Extension Line connects the last confirmed High to the current extreme high of the active move.
The Low Extension Line functions similarly for the downtrend.
This feature allows the user to visualize dynamic support and resistance levels based on the current, active trend structure defined by the percentage threshold.

Support & Resistance Pro by 🅰🅻🅿Support & Resistance Pro by 🅰🅻🅿
A Multi-Layer Market Structure Engine for Professional Price Analysis
Support & Resistance Pro is a next-generation price structure algorithm designed to identify the most meaningful support and resistance levels across any market or timeframe.
Instead of relying on simple fractals, random pivots, or fixed-distance lines, this script analyzes the way price interacts with historical levels — including wick reactions, close rejections, structural pivots, retests, and liquidity sweeps.
The result is a clean, intelligent, and highly accurate market structure map that adapts to every style of trading.
🚀 Key Features
1. Multi-Layer S/R Engine (Up to 20 Dynamic Levels)
The algorithm computes and ranks up to 20 unique levels , from strongest to weakest.
Each level is scored using:
Structural pivot strength
Number of historical touches
Closeness of each interaction
Market memory & reaction weight
Breakout and retest behavior
This produces an objective hierarchy of price levels — ideal for scalping, day trading, or swing analysis.
2. Smart Strength Filter
To remove noise, the Smart Strength Filter evaluates how often price has interacted with each level and hides the ones that lack significance.
You can customize:
Lookback range
Minimum touch count
Touch tolerance sensitivity
This ensures your chart displays only the most relevant and reliable structural zones for the current environment.
3. Heat Map Intensity Coloring
Levels automatically change opacity based on their strength:
More touches → stronger color
Fewer touches → lighter color
This creates a natural visual heat map that highlights where market memory is strongest — perfect for identifying high-probability breakout or reversal zones.
4. Multi-Timeframe Compatibility
Project higher timeframe S/R onto lower timeframe charts to enhance confluence:
Day traders: render 4H levels on 5m–15m
Swing traders: render 1D levels on 1H

- **Trend Signals:** Identifies stronger trend shifts using EMA 21 crossing SMA 50.
- **Major Crosses:** Automatically highlights Golden Cross (SMA 50 > 200) and Death Cross events.
**2. Price Action (FVG - Fair Value Gaps):**
- Integrated **LuxAlgo's Fair Value Gap** logic to identify imbalances in the market.
- Displays Bullish/Bearish zones which act as magnets for price or support/resistance levels.
- Includes a Dashboard to track mitigated vs. unmitigated zones.
**3. Momentum & Volume Confluence:**
- **Visual Volume:** Candles are colored based on volume relative to the average (Volume SMA).
- **RSI & MACD Signals:** Optional overlays to spot overbought/oversold conditions or momentum shifts directly on the chart.
### 🎯 How to Use:
- **For Scalping:** Wait for a "SCALP BUY" signal while the price is above the SMA 200 (Trend Filter). Use the FVG boxes as potential Take Profit targets.
- **For Trend Trading:** Look for the "Trend BUY" label and confirm with the Golden Cross.
- **Stop Loss:** Can be placed below the recent swing low or below the EMA 50.

[CT] ATR Ratio MTFThis indicator is an enhanced, multi-timeframe version of the original “ATR ratio” by RafaelZioni. Huge thanks to RafaelZioni for the core concept and base logic. The script still combines an ATR-based ratio (Z-score style reading of where price sits within its recent ATR envelope) with an ATR Supertrend, but expands it into a more flexible trade-decision and visual context tool.
The ATR ratio is normalized so you can quickly see when price is pressing into extended bullish or bearish territory, while the Supertrend defines directional bias and a dynamic support-resistance trail. You can choose any higher timeframe in the settings, allowing you to run the ATR ratio and Supertrend from a larger anchor timeframe while trading on a lower chart.
Upgrades include a full Pine Script v6 rewrite, multi-timeframe support for both the ATR ratio and Supertrend, user-controlled colors for the Supertrend in bull and bear modes, and optional bar coloring so price bars automatically reflect Supertrend direction. Entry, pyramiding and take-profit logic from the original script are preserved, giving you a familiar framework with more control over timeframe, visuals and trend bias.
This indicator is designed to give you a clean directional framework that blends volatility, trend, and timing into one view. The ATR ratio side of the script shows you where price sits inside a recent ATR-based envelope. When the ATR ratio pushes up and sustains above the bullish threshold, it signals that price is trading in an extended, momentum-driven zone relative to recent volatility. When it drops and holds below the bearish threshold, it shows the opposite: sellers have pushed price down into an extended bearish zone. The optional background coloring simply makes these bullish and bearish environments easier to see at a glance.
On top of that, the Supertrend and bar colors tell you what side of the market to favor. The Supertrend is calculated from ATR on whatever timeframe you choose in the settings. If you set the MTF input to a higher timeframe, the Supertrend and ATR ratio become your higher time frame bias while you trade on a lower chart. When price is above the MTF Supertrend, the line uses your bullish color and, if bar coloring is enabled, candles adopt your bullish bar color. That is your “long only” environment: you generally look for buys when price is above the Supertrend and the ATR ratio is either turning up from neutral or already in a bullish zone. When price is below the MTF Supertrend, the line uses your bearish color and candles can shift to your bearish bar color; that is where you focus on shorts, especially when the ATR ratio is rolling over or holding in the bearish zone.
The built-in long and short conditions are meant as signal prompts, not rigid rules. Long signals fire when the ATR ratio crosses up through a positive level while the Supertrend is bullish. Short signals fire when the ATR ratio crosses down through a negative level while the Supertrend is bearish. The script tracks how many longs or shorts have been taken in sequence (pyramiding) and will only allow a new signal up to the limit you set, so you can control how aggressively you stack positions in a trend. The take-profit logic then watches the percentage move from your last entry and flags “TP” when that move has reached your take-profit percent, helping you standardize exits instead of eyeballing them bar by bar.
In practice you typically start by choosing your anchor timeframe for the MTF setting, for example a 1-hour or 4-hour Supertrend and ATR ratio while watching a 5-minute or 15-minute chart. You then use the Supertrend direction and bar colors as your bias filter, only taking signals in the direction of the trend, and you use the ATR ratio behavior to judge whether you are entering into strength, fading an extreme, or trading inside a neutral consolidation. Over time this gives you a consistent way to answer three questions on every chart: which side am I allowed to trade, how extended is price within its recent volatility, and where are my structured entries and exits based on that framework.

Grok/Claude Turtle Soup Strategy # 🥣 Turtle Soup Strategy (Enhanced)
## A Mean-Reversion Strategy Based on Failed Breakouts
---
## Historical Origins
### The Original Turtle Traders (1983-1988)
The Turtle Trading system is one of the most famous experiments in trading history. In 1983, legendary commodities trader **Richard Dennis** made a bet with his partner **William Eckhardt** about whether great traders were born or made. Dennis believed trading could be taught; Eckhardt believed it was innate.
To settle the debate, Dennis recruited 23 ordinary people through newspaper ads—including a professional blackjack player, a fantasy game designer, and an accountant—and taught them his trading system in just two weeks. He called them "Turtles" after turtle farms he had visited in Singapore, saying *"We are going to grow traders just like they grow turtles in Singapore."*
The results were extraordinary. Over the next five years, the Turtles reportedly earned over **$175 million in profits**. The experiment proved Dennis right: trading could indeed be taught.
#### The Original Turtle Rules:
- **Entry:** Buy when price breaks above the 20-day high (System 1) or 55-day high (System 2)
- **Exit:** Sell when price breaks below the 10-day low (System 1) or 20-day low (System 2)
- **Stop Loss:** 2x ATR (Average True Range) from entry
- **Position Sizing:** Based on volatility (ATR)
- **Philosophy:** Pure trend-following—catch big moves by riding breakouts
The Turtle system was a **trend-following** strategy that assumed breakouts would lead to sustained trends. It worked brilliantly in trending markets but suffered during choppy, range-bound conditions.
---
### The Turtle Soup Strategy (1990s)
In the 1990s, renowned trader **Linda Bradford Raschke** (along with Larry Connors) observed something interesting: many of the breakouts that the Turtle system traded actually *failed*. Price would spike above the 20-day high, trigger Turtle buy orders, then immediately reverse—trapping the breakout traders.
Raschke realized these failed breakouts were predictable and tradeable. She developed the **Turtle Soup** strategy, which does the *exact opposite* of the original Turtle system:
> *"Instead of buying the breakout, we wait for it to fail—then fade it."*
The name "Turtle Soup" is a clever play on words: the strategy essentially "eats" the Turtles by trading against them when their breakouts fail.
#### Original Turtle Soup Rules:
- **Setup:** Price makes a new 20-day high (or low)
- **Qualifier:** The previous 20-day high must be at least 3-4 days old (not a fresh breakout)
- **Entry Trigger:** Price reverses back inside the channel (failed breakout)
- **Entry:** Go SHORT (against the failed breakout above), or LONG (against the failed breakdown below)
- **Philosophy:** Mean-reversion—fade false breakouts and profit from trapped traders
#### Turtle Soup Plus One Variant:
Raschke also developed a more conservative variant called "Turtle Soup Plus One" which waits for the *next bar* after the breakout to confirm the failure before entering. This reduces false signals but may miss some opportunities.
---
## Our Enhanced Turtle Soup Strategy
We have taken the classic Turtle Soup concept and enhanced it with modern technical indicators and filters to improve signal quality and adapt to today's markets.
### Core Logic Preserved
The fundamental strategy remains true to Raschke's original concept:
| Turtle (Original) | Turtle Soup (Our Strategy) |
|-------------------|---------------------------|
| BUY breakout above 20-day high | SHORT when that breakout FAILS |
| SELL breakout below 20-day low | LONG when that breakdown FAILS |
| Trend-following | Mean-reversion |
| "The trend is your friend" | "Failed breakouts trap traders" |
---
### Enhancements & Improvements
#### 1. RSI Exhaustion Filter
**Addition:** RSI must confirm exhaustion before entry
- **For SHORT entries:** RSI > 60 (buyers exhausted)
- **For LONG entries:** RSI < 40 (sellers exhausted)
**Why:** The original Turtle Soup had no momentum filter. Adding RSI ensures we only fade breakouts when the market is showing signs of exhaustion, significantly reducing false signals. This enhancement was inspired by later traders who found RSI extremes (originally 90/10, softened to 60/40) dramatically improved win rates.
#### 2. ADX Trending Filter
**Addition:** ADX must be > 20 for trades to execute
**Why:** While the original Turtle Soup was designed for ranging markets, we found that requiring *some* trend strength (ADX > 20) actually improves results. This ensures we're trading in markets with enough directional movement to create meaningful failed breakouts, rather than random noise in dead markets.
#### 3. Heikin Ashi Smoothing
**Addition:** Optional Heikin Ashi calculations for breakout detection
**Why:** Heikin Ashi candles smooth out price noise and make trend reversals more visible. When enabled, the strategy uses HA values to detect breakouts and failures, reducing whipsaws from erratic price spikes.
#### 4. Dynamic Donchian Channels with Regime Detection
**Addition:** Color-coded channels based on market regime
- 🟢 **Green:** Bullish regime (uptrend + DI+ > DI- + OBV bullish)
- 🔴 **Red:** Bearish regime (downtrend + DI- > DI+ + OBV bearish)
- 🟡 **Yellow:** Neutral regime
**Why:** Visual regime detection helps traders understand the broader market context. The original Turtle Soup had no regime awareness—our enhancement lets traders see at a glance whether conditions favor the strategy.
#### 5. Volume Spike Detection (Optional)
**Addition:** Optional filter requiring volume surge on the breakout bar
**Why:** Failed breakouts are more significant when they occur on high volume. A volume spike on the breakout bar (default 1.2x average) indicates more traders got trapped, creating stronger reversal potential.
#### 6. ATR-Based Stops and Targets
**Addition:** Configurable ATR-based stop losses and profit targets
- **Stop Loss:** 1.5x ATR (default)
- **Profit Target:** 2.0x ATR (default)
**Why:** The original Turtle Soup used fixed stop placement. ATR-based stops adapt to current volatility, providing tighter stops in calm markets and wider stops in volatile conditions.
#### 7. Signal Cooldown
**Addition:** Minimum bars between trades (default 5)
**Why:** Prevents overtrading during choppy conditions where multiple failed breakouts might occur in quick succession.
#### 8. Real-Time Info Panel
**Addition:** Comprehensive dashboard showing:
- Current regime (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral)
- RSI value and zone
- ADX value and trending status
- Breakout status
- Bars since last high/low
- Current setup status
- Position status
**Why:** Gives traders instant visibility into all strategy conditions without needing to check multiple indicators.

## Philosophy
> *"The Turtle system made millions by following breakouts. The Turtle Soup strategy makes money when those breakouts fail. In trading, there's always someone on the other side of the trade—this strategy profits by being the smart money that fades the trapped breakout traders."*
The beauty of the Turtle Soup strategy is its elegant simplicity: it exploits a known, repeatable pattern (failed breakouts) while using modern filters (RSI, ADX) to improve timing and reduce false signals.
