Cnagda Pure Price ActionCnagda Pure Price Action (CPPA) indicator is a pure price action-based system designed to provide traders with real-time, dynamic analysis of the market. It automatically identifies key candles, support and resistance zones, and potential buy/sell signals by combining price, volume, and multiple popular trend indicators.
How Price Action & Volume Analysis Works
Silver Zone – Logic, Reason, and Trade Planning
Logic & Visualization:
The Silver Zone is created when the closing price is the lowest in the chosen window and volume is the highest in that window.
Visually, a large silver-colored box/rectangle appears on the chart.
Thick horizontal lines (top and bottom) are drawn at the high and low of that candle/bar, extending to the right.
Reasoning:
This combination typically occurs at strong “accumulation” or support areas:
Sellers push the price down to the lowest point, but aggressive buyers step in with high volume, absorbing supply.
Indicates potential exhaustion of selling and likely shift in market control to buyers.
How to Plan Trades Using Silver Zone:
Watch if price returns to the Silver Zone in the future: It often acts as powerful support.
Bullish entries (buys) can be planned when price tests or slightly pierces this zone, especially if new buy signals occur (like yellow/green candle labels).
Place your stop-loss below the bottom line of the Silver Zone.
Target: Look for the nearest resistance or opposing zone, or use indicator’s bullish label as confirmation.
Extra Tip:
Multiple touches of the Silver Zone reinforce its importance, but if price closes deeply below it with high volume, that’s a caution signal—support may be breaking.
Black Zone – Logic, Reason, and Trade Planning (as CPPA):
Logic & Visualization:
The Black Zone is created when the closing price is the highest in the chosen window and volume is the lowest in that window.
Visually, a large black-colored box/rectangle appears on the chart, along with thick horizontal lines at the top (high) and bottom (low) of the candle, extending to the right.
Reasoning:
This combination signals a strong “distribution” or resistance area:
Buyers push the price up to a local high, but low volume means there is not much follow-through or conviction in the move.
Often marks exhaustion where uptrend may pause or reverse, as sellers can soon step in.
How to Plan Trades Using Black Zone:
If price revisits the Black Zone in the future, it often acts as major resistance.
Bearish entries (sells) are considered when price is near, testing, or slightly above the Black Zone—especially if new sell signals appear (like blue/red candle labels).
Place your stop-loss just above the top line of the Black Zone.
Target: Nearest support zone (such as a Silver Zone) or next indicator’s bearish label.
Extra Tip:
Multiple touches of the Black Zone make it stronger, but if price closes far above with rising volume, be cautious—resistance might be breaking.
Support Line – Logic, Reason, and Trade Planning (as Cppa):
Logic & Visualization:
The Support Line is a dynamically drawn dashed line (usually blue) that marks key price levels where the market has previously shown significant buying interest.
The line is generated whenever a candle forms a high price with high volume (orange logic).
The script checks for historical pivot lows, past support zones, and even higher timeframe (HTF) supports, and then extends a blue dashed line from that price level to the right, labeling it (sometimes as “Prev Support Orange, HTF”).
Reasoning:
This line helps you visually identify where demand has been strong enough to hold price from falling further—essentially a floor in the market used by professional traders.
If price approaches or re-tests this line, there’s a good chance buyers will defend it again.
How to Plan Trades Using Support Line:
Watch for price to approach the Support Line during down moves. If you see a bullish candlestick pattern, buy labels (yellow/green), or other indicators aligning, this can be a high-probability entry zone.
Great for planning stop-loss for long trades: place stops just below this line.
Target: Next resistance zone, Black Zone, or the top of the last swing.
Extra Tip:
Multiple confirmations (support line + Silver Zone + bullish label) provide powerful entry signals.
If price closes strongly below the Support Line with volume, be cautious—support may be breaking, and a trend reversal or deeper correction could follow.
Resistance Line – Logic, Reason, and Trade Planning (from CPPA):
Logic & Visualization:
The Resistance Line is a dynamically drawn dashed line (usually purple or red) that identifies price levels where the market has previously faced significant selling pressure.
This line is created when a candle reaches a high price combined with high volume (orange logic), or from a historical pivot high/resistance,
The script also tracks higher timeframe (HTF) resistance lines, labeled as “Prev Resistance Orange, HTF,” and extends these dashed lines to the right across the chart.
Reasoning:
Resistance Lines are visual markers of “supply zones,” where buyers previously failed, and sellers took control.
If the price returns to this line later, sellers may get active again to defend this level, halting the uptrend.
How to Plan Trades Using Resistance Line:
Watch for price to approach the Resistance Line during up moves. If you see bearish candlestick patterns, sell labels (blue/red), or bearish indicator confirmation, this becomes a strong shorting opportunity.
Perfect for placing stop-loss in short trades—put your stop just above the Resistance Line.
Target: Next support zone (Silver Zone) or bottom of the last swing.
If the price breaks above with high volume, avoid shorting—resistance may be failing.
Extra Tip:
Multiple resistances (Resistance Line + Black Zone + bearish label) make short signals stronger.
Choppy movement around this line often signals indecision; wait for a clear rejection before entering trades.
Bullish / Bearish Label – Logic, Reason, and Trade Planning:
Logic & Visualization:
The indicator constantly calculates a "Bull Score" and a "Bear Score" based on several factors:
Trend direction from price slope
Confirmation by popular indicators (RSI, ADX, SAR, CMF, OBV, CCI, Bollinger Bands, TWAP)
Adaptive scoring (higher score for each bullish/bearish condition met)
If Bull Score > Bear Score, the chart displays a green "BULLISH" label (usually below the bar).
If Bear Score > Bull Score, the chart displays a red "BEARISH" label (usually above the bar).
If neither dominates, a "NEUTRAL" label appears.
Reasoning:
The labels summarize complex price action and indicator analysis into a simple, actionable sentiment cue:
Bullish: Majority of conditions indicate buying strength; trend is up.
Bearish: Majority signals show selling pressure; trend is down.
How to Use in Trade Planning:
Use the Bullish label as confirmation to enter or hold long (buy) positions, especially if near support/Silver Zone.
Use the Bearish label to enter/hold short (sell) positions, especially if near resistance/Black Zone.
For best results, combine with candle color, volume analysis, or other labels (yellow/green for buys, blue/red for sells).
Avoid trading against these labels unless you have strong confluence from zones/support levels.
Yellow Label (Buy Signal) – Logic, Reason & Trade Planning:
Logic & Visualization:
The yellow label appears below a candle (label.style_label_up, yloc.belowbar) and marks a potential buy signal.
Script conditions:
The candle must be a “yellow candle” (which means it’s at the local lowest close, not a high, with normal volume).
Volume is decreasing for 2 consecutive candles (current volume < previous volume, previous volume < second previous).
When these conditions are met, a yellow label is plotted below the candle.
Reasoning:
This scenario often marks the end of selling pressure and start of possible accumulation—buyers may be stepping in as sellers exhaust.
Decreasing volume during a local price low means selling is slowing, possibly hinting at a reversal.
How to Trade Using Yellow Label:
Entry: Consider buying at/just above the yellow-labeled candle’s close.
Stop-loss: A bit below the candle’s low (or Silver Zone line, if present).
Target: Next resistance level, Black Zone, or chart’s bullish label.
Extra Tip:
If the yellow label is found at/near a Silver Zone or Support Line, and trend is “Bullish,” the setup gets even stronger.
Avoid trading if overall indicator shows “Bearish.”
Green Label (Buy with Increasing Volume) – Logic, Reason & Trade Planning:
Logic & Visualization:
The green label is plotted below a candle (label.style_label_up, yloc.belowbar) and marks a strong buy signal.
Script conditions:
The candle must be a “yellow candle” (at the local lowest close, normal volume).
Volume is increasing for 2 consecutive candles (current volume > previous volume, previous volume > second previous).
When these conditions are met, a green label is plotted below the candle.
Reasoning:
This scenario signals that buyers are stepping in aggressively at a local price low—the end of a downtrend with strong, rising activity.
Increasing volume at a price low is a classic sign of accumulation, where institutions or large players may be buying.
How to Trade Using Green Label:
Entry: Consider buying at/just above the green-labeled candle’s close for a momentum-based reversal.
Stop-loss: Slightly below the candle’s low, or the Silver Zone/support line if present.
Target: Nearest resistance zone/Black Zone, indicator’s bullish label, or next swing high.
Extra Tip:
If the green label is near other supports (Silver Zone, Support Line), the setup is extra strong.
Use confirmation from Bullish labels or trend signals for best results.
Green label setups are suitable for quick, high momentum trades due to increasing volume
Blue Label (Sell Signal on Decreasing Volume) – Logic, Reason & Trade Planning:
Logic & Visualization:
The blue label is plotted above a candle (label.style_label_down, yloc.abovebar) as a potential sell signal.
Script conditions:
The candle is a “blue candle” (local highest close, but not also lowest, and volume is neither highest nor lowest).
Volume is decreasing over 2 consecutive candles (current volume < previous, previous < two ago).
When these match, a blue label appears above the candle.
Reasoning:
This typically signals buyer exhaustion at a local high: price has gone up, but volume is dropping, suggesting big players may not be buying any more at these levels.
The trend is losing strength, and a reversal or pullback is likely.
How to Trade Using Blue Label:
Entry: Look to sell at/just below the candle with the blue label.
Stop-loss: Just above the candle’s high (or above the Black Zone/resistance if present).
Target: Nearest support, Silver Zone, or a swing low.
Extra Tip:
Blue label signals are stronger if they appear near Black Zones or Resistance Lines, or when the general market label is "Bearish."
As with buy setups, always check for confirmation from trend or volume before trading aggressively.

Extra Tip:
Blue label signals are stronger if they appear near Black Zones or Resistance Lines, or when the general market label is "Bearish."
As with buy setups, always check for confirmation from trend or volume before trading aggressively.
Here’s a summary of all key chart labels, zones, and trading logic of your Price Action script:
Silver Zone: Powerful support zone. Created at lowest close + highest volume. Best for buy entries near its lines.
Black Zone: Strong resistance zone. Created at highest close + lowest volume. Ideal for short trades near its levels.
Support Line: Blue dashed line at historical demand; buyers defend here. Look for bullish setups when price approaches.
Resistance Line: Purple/red dashed line at supply; sellers defend here. Great for bearish setups when price nears.
Bullish/Bearish Labels: Summarize trend direction using price action + multiple indicator confirmations. Plan buys, holds on bullish; sells, shorts on bearish.
Yellow Label: Buy signal on decreasing volume and local price low. Entry above candle, stop below, target next resistance.
Green Label: Strong buy on increasing volume at a price low. Entry for momentum trade, stop below, target next zone.
Blue Label: Sell signal on dropping volume and local price high. Entry below candle, stop above, target next support.
Best Practices:
Always combine zone/label signals for higher probability trades.
Use stop-loss near zones/lines for risk management.
Prefer trading in the trend direction (bullish/bearish label agrees with your entry).

Analysis
Luxy Flexible Moving AveragesUltra-lightweight moving average suite supporting six calculation methods (EMA, SMA, WMA, VWMA, RMA, HMA).
Overview
Luxy Flexible Moving Averages is a performance-optimized indicator designed for traders who need clean, reliable moving average lines without the overhead of complex calculations or unnecessary features. This indicator prioritizes speed and visual clarity, making it ideal for traders who run multiple indicators simultaneously or work on lower-powered devices.
Unlike traditional moving average indicators that calculate all lines regardless of whether they are enabled, Luxy only processes the moving averages you actually need, resulting in near-instantaneous chart loading times.
What Makes This Different
The primary design philosophy behind Luxy Flexible Moving Averages is efficiency without compromise. The indicator includes four independently configurable moving average lines, each supporting six different calculation methods. Every calculation is conditionally executed, meaning that disabled lines consume zero processing power. This approach delivers exceptional performance even when paired with resource-intensive indicators like volume profiles, market structure tools, or custom scanners.
Features
The indicator provides four distinct moving average lines, each fully customizable:
Fast MA is typically used for short-term momentum and quick directional changes. Traders often configure this as an EMA with lengths between 5 and 20 bars, depending on their trading timeframe.
Medium MA serves as a middle-ground reference, often used to identify the intermediate trend or as a dynamic support and resistance level. This line commonly uses EMA or SMA calculations with lengths between 10 and 50bars.
Medium-Long MA acts as a visual bridge between short-term noise and long-term structure. Many traders disable this line entirely if they prefer a cleaner chart, but it can be useful for identifying larger trend phases. Typical configurations use SMA or RMA with lengths between 50 and one 150 bars.
Long MA represents the dominant trend or bias. This is often configured as a 200 period SMA, which is a widely-watched level across most markets and timeframes. Alternatively, traders may use RMA for a smoother visual appearance.
Each line supports six calculation methods:
EMA (Exponential Moving Average) applies exponentially decreasing weights to older prices, making it highly responsive to recent price action. This is the preferred method for momentum-based strategies and short-term trading.
SMA (Simple Moving Average ) treats all prices equally within the lookback period, resulting in a smoother line that is less reactive to sudden price spikes. This is commonly used for identifying long-term trends.
WMA (Weighted Moving Average) applies linearly decreasing weights, offering a middle ground between EMA and SMA. It responds faster than SMA but with less sensitivity than EMA.
VWMA (Volume-Weighted Moving Average) incorporates volume data into the calculation, giving more weight to bars with higher trading activity. This method is particularly useful in liquid markets where volume represents genuine participation.
RMA (Relative Moving Average, also known as Wilder's Smoothing) is a variant of EMA with a slower response curve. It is commonly used in oscillators like RSI and ADX, and provides very smooth trend lines on charts.
HMA (Hull Moving Average) is designed to reduce lag while maintaining smoothness. It is the most responsive option available in this indicator but can produce more false signals during choppy or sideways markets.
How It Works
The indicator operates on a conditional calculation model. When you load the indicator, it checks which moving average lines are enabled via the input settings. Only the enabled lines are calculated on each bar, and disabled lines are assigned a not-applicable value, preventing any processing overhead.
Each moving average is calculated using native TradingView functions, ensuring maximum compatibility and reliability across all asset classes and timeframes. The indicator does not use any security calls, loops, or external data requests, which are common sources of performance degradation in more complex indicators.
Recommended Configurations
The optimal moving average configuration depends on your trading style and timeframe. Below are general guidelines based on common trading approaches.
Scalping (1 minute to 5 minute charts)
Scalpers require fast-reacting moving averages that can identify micro-trends and momentum shifts within seconds. The recommended configuration prioritizes EMA or HMA for all lines, with very short lengths to capture quick moves.
For the Fast MA, use EMA with a length between 5 and 8. This line should react almost immediately to price changes and helps confirm entry timing during breakouts or pullbacks.
For the Medium MA , use EMA with a length between 10 and 15. This serves as your primary directional filter. When price is above this line, you look for long opportunities. When below, you look for shorts.
The Medium-Long MA is often disabled in scalping setups to reduce visual noise. If used, configure it as SMA between 40 and 80 to provide context on the broader 5-minute or 15-minute trend.
The Long MA can be set to SMA with a length between 100 and 150, or simply disabled. On very short timeframes, this line often provides more historical context than real-time utility.
Day Trading (5 minute to 1 hour charts)
Day traders benefit from a balanced approach that filters out noise while remaining responsive to intraday volatility. A common configuration combines EMA for short-term lines and SMA for long-term structure.
For the Fast MA , use EMA with a length between 8 and 12. This captures momentum without overreacting to every minor price swing.
For the Medium MA , use EMA with a length between 12 and 21. This is often used as a dynamic support or resistance level during trending sessions.
For the Medium-Long MA , configure SMA or RMA between 60 and one 120. This line helps identify whether the intraday trend aligns with the broader daily bias.
The Long MA is typically set to SMA with a length of 200. This is a critical level that many institutional traders watch, and price reactions around this line are often significant.
Swing Trading (4 hour to daily charts)
Swing traders operate on longer timeframes and need moving averages that filter out daily noise while highlighting multi-day or multi-week trends. SMA and RMA are commonly preferred for their smoothness, though EMA can be used for faster momentum entries.
For the Fast MA , use EMA or SMA with a length between 10 and 20. This line helps time entries during pullbacks within the larger trend.
For the Medium MA , use EMA or SMA with a length between 20 and 34. This often serves as a key decision point for whether a pullback is likely to reverse or continue.
For the Medium-Long MA , configure SMA between 100 and 180. This provides visual context on the broader weekly trend and can act as a significant support or resistance zone.
The Long MA should be SMA with a length of 200 or higher. On daily charts, the two-hundred-day moving average is one of the most widely-referenced indicators in global markets, and price behavior around this level is often predictable.
Using Moving Averages for Trend Identification
Moving averages are primarily used to determine trend direction and strength. The relationship between price and the moving average lines provides insight into market structure.
When price is trading above a moving average, the trend is generally considered bullish on that timeframe. When price is below, the trend is bearish. The steeper the slope of the moving average, the stronger the trend. A flat moving average indicates consolidation or a potential trend change.
Crossovers between moving averages are commonly used as trend confirmation signals. When a faster moving average crosses above a slower moving average, this suggests increasing bullish momentum. When the faster line crosses below, it suggests increasing bearish momentum. However, crossovers should not be used in isolation, as they can produce false signals during sideways markets.
Many traders use moving averages as dynamic support and resistance levels. During uptrends, price often pulls back to a key moving average before resuming higher. During downtrends, price often rallies to a moving average before resuming lower. These levels can be used to plan entries, exits, or stop-loss placement.
Trend CandlesThis shows candlesticks that only follow the trend. So it will make it easier to know where the trend is going.
Quick Valuation V.1.0 (Ibo)This Pine Script indicator performs a Quick Discounted Cash Flow (DCF)-style Valuation to estimate the intrinsic value of a stock.
It calculates a projected Fair Value and a Margin of Safety based on user inputs or automatically pulled financial data from TradingView (like revenue, growth, margin, and exit P/E). It also automatically computes a Discount Rate using a modified CAPM model.
Key Features
Valuation Output: Calculates a target Fair Value and the resulting Margin of Safety.
Data Flexibility: Automatically pulls essential fundamentals (Revenue, Margins, Shares Outstanding, etc.) but allows the user to override any value (revenue, growth, P/E, shares, etc.) via the settings.
Automated Discount Rate: Calculates the Discount Rate (Cost of Equity) using the current 10-Year Real Yield and a computed or user-defined Beta.
Clear Display: Presents all input metrics, calculated values, and data sources (TradingView or User Input) in a neat table on the chart.
Pairs Trading Scanner [BackQuant]Pairs Trading Scanner
What it is
This scanner analyzes the relationship between your chart symbol and a chosen pair symbol in real time. It builds a normalized “spread” between them, tracks how tightly they move together (correlation), converts the spread into a Z-Score (how far from typical it is), and then prints clear LONG / SHORT / EXIT prompts plus an at-a-glance dashboard with the numbers that matter.
Why pairs at all?
Markets co-move. When two assets are statistically related, their relationship (the spread) tends to oscillate around a mean.
Pairs trading doesn’t require calling overall market direction you trade the relative mispricing between two instruments.
This scanner gives you a robust, visual way to find those dislocations, size their significance, and structure the trade.
How it works (plain English)
Step 1 Pick a partner: Select the Pair Symbol to compare against your chart symbol. The tool fetches synchronized prices for both.
Step 2 Build a spread: Choose a Spread Method that defines “relative value” (e.g., Log Spread, Price Ratio, Return Difference, Price Difference). Each lens highlights a different flavor of divergence.
Step 3 Validate relationship: A rolling Correlation checks if the pair is moving together enough to be tradable. If correlation is weak, the scanner stands down.
Step 4 Standardize & score: The spread is normalized (mean & variability over a lookback) to form a Z-Score . Large absolute Z means “stretched,” small means “near fair.”
Step 5 Signals: When the Z-Score crosses user-defined thresholds with sufficient correlation , entries print:
LONG = long chart symbol / short pair symbol,
SHORT = short chart symbol / long pair symbol,
EXIT = mean reversion into the exit zone or correlation failure.
Core concepts (the three pillars)
Spread Method Your definition of “distance” between the two series.
Guidance:
Log Spread: Focuses on proportional differences; robust when prices live on different scales.
Price Ratio: Classic relative value; good when you care about “X per Y.”
Return Difference: Emphasizes recent performance gaps; nimble for momentum-to-mean plays.
Price Difference: Straight subtraction; intuitive for similar-scale assets (e.g., two ETFs).
Correlation A rolling score of co-movement. The scanner requires it to be above your Min Correlation before acting, so you’re not trading random divergence.
Z-Score “How abnormal is today’s spread?” Positive = chart richer than pair; negative = cheaper. Thresholds define entries/exits with transparent, statistical context.
What you’ll see on the chart
Correlation plot (blue line) with a dashed Min Correlation guide. Above the line = green zone for signals; below = hands off.
Z-Score plot (white line) with colored, dashed Entry bands and dotted Exit bands. Zero line for mean.
Normalized spread (yellow) for a quick “shape read” of recent divergence swings.
Signal markers :
LONG (green label) when Z < –Entry and corr OK,
SHORT (red label) when Z > +Entry and corr OK,
EXIT (gray label) when Z returns inside the Exit band or correlation drops below the floor.
Background tint for active state (faint green for long-spread stance, faint red for short-spread stance).

Spread Volatility How “lively” the spread has been.
Trade Signal A human-readable prompt (e.g., “LONG A / SHORT B” or “NO TRADE” / “LOW CORRELATION”).
Risk Level LOW / MEDIUM / HIGH based on current stretch (absolute Z).
Signals logic (plain English)
Entry (LONG): The spread is unusually negative (chart cheaper vs pair) and correlation is healthy. Expect mean reversion upward in the spread: long chart, short pair.
Entry (SHORT): The spread is unusually positive (chart richer vs pair) and correlation is healthy. Expect mean reversion downward in the spread: short chart, long pair.
Exit: The spread relaxes back toward normal (inside your exit band), or correlation deteriorates (relationship no longer trusted).
A quick, repeatable workflow
1) Choose your pair in context (same sector/theme or known macro link). Think: “Do these two plausibly co-move?”
2) Pick a spread lens that matches your narrative (ratio for relative value, returns for short-term performance gaps, etc.).
3) Confirm correlation is above your floor no corr, no trade.
4) Wait for a stretch (Z beyond Entry band) and a printed LONG / SHORT .
5) Manage to the mean (EXIT band) or correlation failure; let the scanners’ state/labels keep you honest.
Settings that matter (and why)
Spread Method Defines the “mispricing” you care about.
Correlation Period Longer = steadier regime read, shorter = snappier to regime change.
Z-Score Period The window that defines “normal” for the spread; it sets the yardstick.
Use Percentage Returns Normalizes series when using return-based logic; keep on for mixed-scale assets.
Entry / Exit Thresholds Set your stretch and your target reversion zone. Wider entries = rarer but stronger signals.
Minimum Correlation The gatekeeper. Raising it favors quality over quantity.
Choosing pairs (practical cheat sheet)
Same family: two index ETFs, two oil-linked names, two gold miners, two L1 tokens.
Hedge & proxy: stock vs. sector ETF, BTC vs. BTC index, WTI vs. energy ETF.
Cross-venue or cross-listing: instruments that are functionally the same exposure but price differently intraday.
Reading the cues like a pro
Divergence shape: The yellow normalized spread helps you see rhythm fast spike and snap-back versus slow grind.
Corr-first discipline: Don’t fight the “Min Correlation” line. Good pairs trading starts with a relationship you can trust.
Exit humility: When Z re-centers, let the EXIT do its job. The edge is the journey to the mean, not overstaying it.
Frequently asked (quick answers)
“Long/Short means what exactly?”
LONG = long the chart symbol and short the pair symbol.
SHORT = short the chart symbol and long the pair symbol.
“Do I need same price scales?” No. The spread methods normalize in different ways; choose the one that fits your use case (log/ratio are great for mixed scales).
“What if correlation falls mid-trade?” The scanner will neutralize the state and print EXIT . Relationship first; trade second.
Field notes & patterns
Snap-back days: After a one-sided session, return-difference spreads often flag cleaner intraday mean reversions.
Macro rotations: Ratio spreads shine during sector re-weights (e.g., value vs. growth ETFs); look for steady corr + elevated |Z|.
Event bleed-through: If one symbol reacts to news and its partner lags, Z often flags a high-quality, short-horizon re-centering.

Final notes
The scanner is designed to keep you systematic: require relationship (correlation), quantify dislocation (Z-Score), act when stretched, stand down when it normalizes or the relationship degrades. It’s a full, visual loop for relative-value trading that stays out of your way when it should and gets loud only when the numbers line up.
Price Level Highlighter [ldlwtrades]This indicator is a minimalist and highly effective tool designed for traders who incorporate institutional concepts into their analysis. It automates the identification of key psychological price levels and adds a unique, dynamic layer of information to help you focus on the most relevant area of the market. Inspired by core principles of market structure and liquidity, it serves as a powerful visual guide for anticipating potential support and resistance.
The core idea is simple: specific price points, particularly those ending in round numbers or common increments, often act as magnets or barriers for price. While many indicators simply plot static lines, this tool goes further by intelligently highlighting the single most significant level in real-time. This dynamic feature allows you to quickly pinpoint where the market is currently engaged, offering a clear reference point for your trading decisions. It reduces chart clutter and enhances your focus on the immediate price action.
Features
Customizable Price Range: Easily define a specific Start Price and End Price to focus the indicator on the most relevant area of your chart, preventing unnecessary clutter.
Adjustable Increment: Change the interval of the lines to suit your trading style, from high-frequency increments (e.g., 10 points) for scalping to wider intervals (e.g., 50 or 100 points) for swing trading.
Intelligent Highlighting: A key feature that automatically identifies and highlights the single horizontal line closest to the current market price with a distinct color and thickness. This gives you an immediate visual cue for the most relevant price level.
Highly Customizabile: Adjust the line color, style, and width for both the main lines and the highlighted line to fit your personal chart aesthetic.
Usage
Apply the indicator to your chart.
In the settings, input your desired price range (Start Price and End Price) to match the market you are trading.
Set the Price Increment to your preferred density.
Monitor the chart for the highlighted line. This is your active price level and a key area of interest.
Combine this tool with other confirmation signals (e.g., order blocks, fair value gaps, liquidity pools) to build higher-probability trade setups.
Best Practices
Pairing: This tool is effective across all markets, including stocks, forex, indices, and crypto. It is particularly useful for volatile markets where price moves rapidly between psychological levels.
Mindful Analysis: Use the highlighted level as a reference point for your analysis, not as a standalone signal. A break above or below this level can signify a shift in market control.
Backtesting: Always backtest the indicator on your preferred market and timeframe to understand how it performs under different conditions.
MSFusion- MultiScoreFusionThis Pine Script strategy, MSFusion - MultiScoreFusion, combines Ichimoku components and Hull Moving Average (HMA) signals to generate a composite score for each bar.
It evaluates several conditions—such as price crossing above HMA55, Tenkan and Kijun lines, and price position relative to the Ichimoku cloud—and assigns scores to each.
The script displays a label with the total score and a tooltip listing the contributing conditions when a strong bullish signal is detected. This approach helps traders quickly assess market momentum and trend strength using multiple technical criteria.
Theil-Sen Line Filter [BackQuant]Theil-Sen Line Filter
A robust, median-slope baseline that tracks price while resisting outliers. Designed for the chart pane as a clean, adaptive reference line with optional candle coloring and slope-flip alerts.
What this is
A trend filter that estimates the underlying slope of price using a Theil-Sen style median of past slopes, then advances a baseline by a controlled fraction of that slope each bar. The result is a smooth line that reacts to real directional change while staying calm through noise, gaps, and single-bar shocks.
Why Theil-Sen
Classical moving averages are sensitive to outliers and shape changes. Ordinary least squares is sensitive to large residuals. The Theil-Sen idea replaces a single fragile estimate with the median of many simple slopes, which is statistically robust and less influenced by a few extreme bars. That makes the baseline steadier in choppy conditions and cleaner around regime turns.
What it plots
Filtered baseline that advances by a fraction of the robust slope each bar.
Optional candle coloring by baseline slope sign for quick trend read.
Alerts when the baseline slope turns up or down.
How it behaves (high level)
Looks back over a fixed window and forms many “current vs past” bar-to-bar slopes.
Takes the median of those slopes to get a robust estimate for the bar.
Optionally caps the magnitude of that per-bar slope so a single volatile bar cannot yank the line.
Moves the baseline forward by a user-controlled fraction of the estimated slope. Lower fractions are smoother. Higher fractions are more responsive.
Inputs and what they do
Price Source — the series the filter tracks. Typical is close; HL2 or HLC3 can be smoother.
Window Length — how many bars to consider for slopes. Larger windows are steadier and slower. Smaller windows are quicker and noisier.
Response — fraction of the estimated slope applied each bar. 1.00 follows the robust slope closely; values below 1.00 dampen moves.
Slope Cap Mode — optional guardrail on each bar’s slope:
None — no cap.
ATR — cap scales with recent true range.
Percent — cap scales with price level.
Points — fixed absolute cap in price points.
ATR Length / Mult, Cap Percent, Cap Points — tune the chosen cap mode’s size.
UI Settings — show or hide the line, paint candles by slope, choose long and short colors.
How to read it
Up-slope baseline and green candles indicate a rising robust trend. Pullbacks that do not flip the slope often resolve in trend direction.
Down-slope baseline and red candles indicate a falling robust trend. Bounces against the slope are lower-probability until proven otherwise.
Flat or frequent flips suggest a range. Increase window length or decrease response if you want fewer whipsaws in sideways markets.
Use cases
Bias filter — only take longs when slope is up, shorts when slope is down. It is a simple way to gate faster setups.
Stop or trail reference — use the line as a trailing guide. If price closes beyond the line and the slope flips, consider reducing exposure.
Regime detector — widen the window on higher timeframes to define major up vs down regimes for asset rotation or risk toggles.
Noise control — enable a cap mode in very volatile symbols to retain the line’s continuity through event bars.
Tuning guidance
Quick swing trading — shorter window, higher response, optionally add a percent cap to keep it stable on large moves.
Position trading — longer window, moderate response. ATR cap tends to scale well across cycles.
Low-liquidity or gappy charts — prefer longer window and a points or ATR cap. That reduces jumpiness around discontinuities.
Alerts included
Theil-Sen Up Slope — baseline’s one-bar change crosses above zero.
Theil-Sen Down Slope — baseline’s one-bar change crosses below zero.
Strengths
Robust to outliers through median-based slope estimation.
Continuously advances with price rather than re-anchoring, which reduces lag at turns.
User-selectable slope caps to tame shock bars without over-smoothing everything.
Minimal visuals with optional candle painting for fast regime recognition.
Notes
This is a filter, not a trading system. It does not account for execution, spreads, or gaps. Pair it with entry logic, risk management, and higher-timeframe context if you plan to use it for decisions.

ATR% | Volatility NormalizerThis indicator measures true volatility by expressing the Average True Range (ATR) as a percentage of price. Unlike basic ATR plots, which show raw values, this version normalizes volatility to make it directly comparable across instruments and timeframes.
How it works:
Uses True Range (High–Low plus gaps) to capture actual market movement.
Normalizes by dividing ATR by the chosen price base (default: Close).
Multiplies by 100 to output a clean ATR% line.
Smoothing is flexible: choose from RMA, SMA, EMA, or WMA.
Optional Feature:
For comparison, you can toggle an auxiliary line showing the average absolute close-to-close % move, highlighting the difference between simplified and true volatility.
Why use it:
Track regime shifts: identify when volatility expands or contracts in % terms.
Compare volatility across different markets (equities, crypto, forex, commodities).
Integrate into risk management: position sizing, stop placement, or volatility filters for entries.
Interpretation:
Rising ATR% → expanding volatility, potential breakouts or unstable ranges.
Falling ATR% → contracting volatility, possible consolidation or range-bound conditions.
Sudden spikes → market “shocks” worth paying attention to.
MERV: Market Entropy & Rhythm Visualizer [BullByte]The MERV (Market Entropy & Rhythm Visualizer) indicator analyzes market conditions by measuring entropy (randomness vs. trend), tradeability (volatility/momentum), and cyclical rhythm. It provides traders with an easy-to-read dashboard and oscillator to understand when markets are structured or choppy, and when trading conditions are optimal.
Purpose of the Indicator
MERV’s goal is to help traders identify different market regimes. It quantifies how structured or random recent price action is (entropy), how strong and volatile the movement is (tradeability), and whether a repeating cycle exists. By visualizing these together, MERV highlights trending vs. choppy environments and flags when conditions are favorable for entering trades. For example, a low entropy value means prices are following a clear trend line, whereas high entropy indicates a lot of noise or sideways action. The indicator’s combination of measures is original: it fuses statistical trend-fit (entropy), volatility trends (ATR and slope), and cycle analysis to give a comprehensive view of market behavior.
Why a Trader Should Use It
Traders often need to know when a market trend is reliable vs. when it is just noise. MERV helps in several ways: it shows when the market has a strong direction (low entropy, high tradeability) and when it’s ranging (high entropy). This can prevent entering trend-following strategies during choppy periods, or help catch breakouts early. The “Optimal Regime” marker (a star) highlights moments when entropy is very low and tradeability is very high, typically the best conditions for trend trades. By using MERV, a trader gains an empirical “go/no-go” signal based on price history, rather than guessing from price alone. It’s also adaptable: you can apply it to stocks, forex, crypto, etc., on any timeframe. For example, during a bullish phase of a stock, MERV will turn green (Trending Mode) and often show a star, signaling good follow-through. If the market later grinds sideways, MERV will shift to magenta (Choppy Mode), warning you that trend-following is now risky.
Why These Components Were Chosen
Market Entropy (via R²) : This measures how well recent prices fit a straight line. We compute a linear regression on the last len_entropy bars and calculate R². Entropy = 1 - R², so entropy is low when prices follow a trend (R² near 1) and high when price action is erratic (R² near 0). This single number captures trend strength vs noise.
Tradeability (ATR + Slope) : We combine two familiar measures: the Average True Range (ATR) (normalized by price) and the absolute slope of the regression line (scaled by ATR). Together they reflect how active and directional the market is. A high ATR or strong slope means big moves, making a trend more “tradeable.” We take a simple average of the normalized ATR and slope to get tradeability_raw. Then we convert it to a percentile rank over the lookback window so it’s stable between 0 and 1.
Percentile Ranks : To make entropy and tradeability values easy to interpret, we convert each to a 0–100 rank based on the past len_entropy periods. This turns raw metrics into a consistent scale. (For example, an entropy rank of 90 means current entropy is higher than 90% of recent values.) We then divide by 100 to plot them on a 0–1 scale.
Market Mode (Regime) : Based on those ranks, MERV classifies the market:
Trending (Green) : Low entropy rank (<40%) and high tradeability rank (>60%). This means the market is structurally trending with high activity.
Choppy (Magenta) : High entropy rank (>60%) and low tradeability rank (<40%). This is a mostly random, low-momentum market.
Neutral (Cyan) : All other cases. This covers mixed regimes not strongly trending or choppy.
The mode is shown as a colored bar at the bottom: green for trending, magenta for choppy, cyan for neutral.
Optimal Regime Signal : Separately, we mark an “optimal” condition when entropy_norm < 0.3 and tradeability > 0.7 (both normalized 0–1). When this is true, a ★ star appears on the bottom line. This star is colored white when truly optimal, gold when only tradeability is high (but entropy not quite low enough), and black when neither condition holds. This gives a quick visual cue for very favorable conditions.
What Makes MERV Stand Out
Holistic View : Unlike a single-oscillator, MERV combines trend, volatility, and cycle analysis in one tool. This multi-faceted approach is unique.
Visual Dashboard : The fixed on-chart dashboard (shown at your chosen corner) summarizes all metrics in bar/gauge form. Even a non-technical user can glance at it: more “█” blocks = a higher value, colors match the plots. This is more intuitive than raw numbers.
Adaptive Thresholds : Using percentile ranks means MERV auto-adjusts to each market’s character, rather than requiring fixed thresholds.
Cycle Insight : The rhythm plot adds information rarely found in indicators – it shows if there’s a repeating cycle (and its period in bars) and how strong it is. This can hint at natural bounce or reversal intervals.
Modern Look : The neon color scheme and glow effects make the lines easy to distinguish (blue/pink for entropy, green/orange for tradeability, etc.) and the filled area between them highlights when one dominates the other.
Recommended Timeframes
MERV can be applied to any timeframe, but it will be more reliable on higher timeframes. The default len_entropy = 50 and len_rhythm = 30 mean we use 30–50 bars of history, so on a daily chart that’s ~2–3 months of data; on a 1-hour chart it’s about 2–3 days. In practice:
Swing/Position traders might prefer Daily or 4H charts, where the calculations smooth out small noise. Entropy and cycles are more meaningful on longer trends.
Day trader s could use 15m or 1H charts if they adjust the inputs (e.g. shorter windows). This provides more sensitivity to intraday cycles.
Scalpers might find MERV too “slow” unless input lengths are set very low.
In summary, the indicator works anywhere, but the defaults are tuned for capturing medium-term trends. Users can adjust len_entropy and len_rhythm to match their chart’s volatility. The dashboard position can also be moved (top-left, bottom-right, etc.) so it doesn’t cover important chart areas.
How the Scoring/Logic Works (Step-by-Step)
Compute Entropy : A linear regression line is fit to the last len_entropy closes. We compute R² (goodness of fit). Entropy = 1 – R². So a strong straight-line trend gives low entropy; a flat/noisy set of points gives high entropy.
Compute Tradeability : We get ATR over len_entropy bars, normalize it by price (so it’s a fraction of price). We also calculate the regression slope (difference between the predicted close and last close). We scale |slope| by ATR to get a dimensionless measure. We average these (ATR% and slope%) to get tradeability_raw. This represents how big and directional price moves are.
Convert to Percentiles : Each new entropy and tradeability value is inserted into a rolling array of the last 50 values. We then compute the percentile rank of the current value in that array (0–100%) using a simple loop. This tells us where the current bar stands relative to history. We then divide by 100 to plot on .
Determine Modes and Signal : Based on these normalized metrics: if entropy < 0.4 and tradeability > 0.6 (40% and 60% thresholds), we set mode = Trending (1). If entropy > 0.6 and tradeability < 0.4, mode = Choppy (-1). Otherwise mode = Neutral (0). Separately, if entropy_norm < 0.3 and tradeability > 0.7, we set an optimal flag. These conditions trigger the colored mode bars and the star line.
Rhythm Detection : Every bar, if we have enough data, we take the last len_rhythm closes and compute the mean and standard deviation. Then for lags from 5 up to len_rhythm, we calculate a normalized autocorrelation coefficient. We track the lag that gives the maximum correlation (best match). This “best lag” divided by len_rhythm is plotted (a value between 0 and 1). Its color changes with the correlation strength. We also smooth the best correlation value over 5 bars to plot as “Cycle Strength” (also 0 to 1). This shows if there is a consistent cycle length in recent price action.
Heatmap (Optional) : The background color behind the oscillator panel can change with entropy. If “Neon Rainbow” style is on, low entropy is blue and high entropy is pink (via a custom color function), otherwise a classic green-to-red gradient can be used. This visually reinforces the entropy value.
Volume Regime (Dashboard Only) : We compute vol_norm = volume / sma(volume, len_entropy). If this is above 1.5, it’s considered high volume (neon orange); below 0.7 is low (blue); otherwise normal (green). The dashboard shows this as a bar gauge and percentage. This is for context only.
Oscillator Plot – How to Read It
The main panel (oscillator) has multiple colored lines on a 0–1 vertical scale, with horizontal markers at 0.2 (Low), 0.5 (Mid), and 0.8 (High). Here’s each element:
Entropy Line (Blue→Pink) : This line (and its glow) shows normalized entropy (0 = very low, 1 = very high). It is blue/green when entropy is low (strong trend) and pink/purple when entropy is high (choppy). A value near 0.0 (below 0.2 line) indicates a very well-defined trend. A value near 1.0 (above 0.8 line) means the market is very random. Watch for it dipping near 0: that suggests a strong trend has formed.
Tradeability Line (Green→Yellow) : This represents normalized tradeability. It is colored bright green when tradeability is low, transitioning to yellow as tradeability increases. Higher values (approaching 1) mean big moves and strong slopes. Typically in a market rally or crash, this line will rise. A crossing above ~0.7 often coincides with good trend strength.
Filled Area (Orange Shade) : The orange-ish fill between the entropy and tradeability lines highlights when one dominates the other. If the area is large, the two metrics diverge; if small, they are similar. This is mostly aesthetic but can catch the eye when the lines cross over or remain close.
Rhythm (Cycle) Line : This is plotted as (best_lag / len_rhythm). It indicates the relative period of the strongest cycle. For example, a value of 0.5 means the strongest cycle was about half the window length. The line’s color (green, orange, or pink) reflects how strong that cycle is (green = strong). If no clear cycle is found, this line may be flat or near zero.
Cycle Strength Line : Plotted on the same scale, this shows the autocorrelation strength (0–1). A high value (e.g. above 0.7, shown in green) means the cycle is very pronounced. Low values (pink) mean any cycle is weak and unreliable.
Mode Bars (Bottom) : Below the main oscillator, thick colored bars appear: a green bar means Trending Mode, magenta means Choppy Mode, and cyan means Neutral. These bars all have a fixed height (–0.1) and make it very easy to see the current regime.
Optimal Regime Line (Bottom) : Just below the mode bars is a thick horizontal line at –0.18. Its color indicates regime quality: White (★) means “Optimal Regime” (very low entropy and high tradeability). Gold (★) means not quite optimal (high tradeability but entropy not low enough). Black means neither condition. This star line quickly tells you when conditions are ideal (white star) or simply good (gold star).
Horizontal Guides : The dotted lines at 0.2 (Low), 0.5 (Mid), and 0.8 (High) serve as reference lines. For example, an entropy or tradeability reading above 0.8 is “High,” and below 0.2 is “Low,” as labeled on the chart. These help you gauge values at a glance.
Dashboard (Fixed Corner Panel)
MERV also includes a compact table (dashboard) that can be positioned in any corner. It summarizes key values each bar. Here is how to read its rows:
Entropy : Shows a bar of blocks (█ and ░). More █ blocks = higher entropy. It also gives a percentage (rounded). A full bar (10 blocks) with a high % means very chaotic market. The text is colored similarly (blue-green for low, pink for high).
Rhythm : Shows the best cycle period in bars (e.g. “15 bars”). If no calculation yet, it shows “n/a.” The text color matches the rhythm line.
Cycle Strength : Gives the cycle correlation as a percentage (smoothed, as shown on chart). Higher % (green) means a strong cycle.
Tradeability : Displays a 10-block gauge for tradeability. More blocks = more tradeable market. It also shows “gauge” text colored green→yellow accordingly.
Market Mode : Simply shows “Trending”, “Choppy”, or “Neutral” (cyan text) to match the mode bar color.
Volume Regime : Similar to tradeability, shows blocks for current volume vs. average. Above-average volume gives orange blocks, below-average gives blue blocks. A % value indicates current volume relative to average. This row helps see if volume is abnormally high or low.
Optimal Status (Large Row) : In bold, either “★ Optimal Regime” (white text) if the star condition is met, “★ High Tradeability” (gold text) if tradeability alone is high, or “— Not Optimal” (gray text) otherwise. This large row catches your eye when conditions are ripe.
In short, the dashboard turns the numeric state into an easy read: filled bars, colors, and text let you see current conditions without reading the plot. For instance, five blue blocks under Entropy and “25%” tells you entropy is low (good), and a row showing “Trending” in green confirms a trend state.
Real-Life Example
Example : Consider a daily chart of a trending stock (e.g. “AAPL, 1D”). During a strong uptrend, recent prices fit a clear upward line, so Entropy would be low (blue line near bottom, perhaps below the 0.2 line). Volatility and slope are high, so Tradeability is high (green-yellow line near top). In the dashboard, Entropy might show only 1–2 blocks (e.g. 10%) and Tradeability nearly full (e.g. 90%). The Market Mode bar turns green (Trending), and you might see a white ★ on the optimal line if conditions are very good. The Volume row might light orange if volume is above average during the rally. In contrast, imagine the same stock later in a tight range: Entropy will rise (pink line up, more blocks in dashboard), Tradeability falls (fewer blocks), and the Mode bar turns magenta (Choppy). No star appears in that case.
Consolidated Use Case : Suppose on XYZ stock the dashboard reads “Entropy: █░░░░░░░░ 20%”, “Tradeability: ██████████ 80%”, Mode = Trending (green), and “★ Optimal Regime.” This tells the trader that the market is in a strong, low-noise trend, and it might be a good time to follow the trend (with appropriate risk controls). If instead it reads “Entropy: ████████░░ 80%”, “Tradeability: ███▒▒▒▒▒▒ 30%”, Mode = Choppy (magenta), the trader knows the market is random and low-momentum—likely best to sit out until conditions improve.
Example: How It Looks in Action
Screenshot 1: Trending Market with High Tradeability (SOLUSD, 30m)
What it means:
The market is in a clear, strong trend with excellent conditions for trading. Both trend-following and active strategies are favored, supported by high tradeability and strong volume.
Screenshot 2: Optimal Regime, Strong Trend (ETHUSD, 1h)
What it means:
This is an ideal environment for trend trading. The market is highly organized, tradeability is excellent, and volume supports the move. This is when the indicator signals the highest probability for success.
Screenshot 3: Choppy Market with High Volume (BTC Perpetual, 5m)
What it means:
The market is highly random and choppy, despite a surge in volume. This is a high-risk, low-reward environment, avoid trend strategies, and be cautious even with mean-reversion or scalping.
Settings and Inputs
The script is fully open-source; here are key inputs the user can adjust:
Entropy Window (len_entropy) : Number of bars used for entropy and tradeability (default 50). Larger = smoother, more lag; smaller = more sensitivity.
Rhythm Window (len_rhythm ): Bars used for cycle detection (default 30). This limits the longest cycle we detect.
Dashboard Position : Choose any corner (Top Right default) so it doesn’t cover chart action.
Show Heatmap : Toggles the entropy background coloring on/off.
Heatmap Style : “Neon Rainbow” (colorful) or “Classic” (green→red).
Show Mode Bar : Turn the bottom mode bar on/off.
Show Dashboard : Turn the fixed table panel on/off.
Each setting has a tooltip explaining its effect. In the description we will mention typical settings (e.g. default window sizes) and that the user can move the dashboard corner as desired.
Oscillator Interpretation (Recap)

Stock Table aiTrendviewProfessional Stock Market Monitoring Table (Pine Script v5)
This indicator is a real-time multi-asset monitoring table designed for professional traders, analysts, and portfolio managers using TradingView. Built with Pine Script v5, it enables users to track up to 10 instruments (stocks, indices, forex pairs, cryptocurrencies, or commodities) in a unified table embedded directly into the chart. It is intended to streamline portfolio monitoring, cross-market analysis, and rapid visual comparison of asset performance.
The core logic of this script involves retrieving live price data through TradingView’s request.security() function for each of the selected symbols. It calculates both absolute price change and percentage price change relative to the previous bar close. This ensures users can see real-time movements in each asset’s price. These calculations are updated at the close of every bar to optimize performance and reduce processing load using the barstate.islast condition.
The display structure is dynamically generated using table.new() and related functions. Internally, the script stores symbol and price data in arrays for efficient processing. Symbols are cleaned to remove exchange prefixes (e.g., "NASDAQ:", "BINANCE:") so only the ticker name is displayed. Based on the selected layout (1 to 5 columns), the table auto-adjusts its row structure to maintain clarity and symmetry. Each cell reflects the ticker symbol, current price, and changes, with conditional formatting applied to indicate price movement direction using green (positive), red (negative), or neutral colors.
Users can customize many visual elements including text size, color themes, transparency, table position, and whether headers are shown. The script includes built-in fallbacks for invalid symbols or empty data, ensuring robustness and uninterrupted performance during live market hours.
Use cases include:
Intraday traders monitoring multiple instruments simultaneously.
Swing traders assessing relative strength and correlation.
Portfolio managers scanning asset performance without switching charts.
Analysts preparing multi-asset presentations or watchlists.
To use the tool:
Paste the Pine Script into the Pine Editor.
Add the script to the chart.
Enter your desired symbols via the input fields.
Customize table position, layout, size, and color to suit your workspace.
This script does not provide trade signals or financial advice. It is purely a market visualization and data presentation tool. All calculations are based on live chart data and are synchronized with the chart’s timeframe.

CRS by TQCRS by TradeQUO
Comparative Relative Strength Indicator
What it does
Computes the percentage difference in performance between your current chart symbol (e.g. GC1!) and a chosen benchmark (e.g. ES1!, DXY, NQ1!).
Smooths that “CRS” line with a configurable moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA) — default length is 63 bars.
Key Plots
CRS (%) (aqua) — how your symbol has held up relative to the benchmark since the chart loaded.
CRS MA (%) (fuchsia) — smoothed trend of that relative strength.
How to Interpret
Trend-Following
Long when CRS crosses above its MA and is above 0 → your symbol is outperforming.
Short (or reverse) when CRS crosses below its MA and is below 0 → underperformance.
Regime Filter
CRS > 0 → Risk-On environment for your symbol vs. benchmark.
CRS < 0 → Risk-Off relative to the benchmark.
Divergence Signals
Bearish Divergence: Price makes a higher high, but CRS makes a lower high → potential sell-off incoming.
Bullish Divergence: Price makes a lower low, but CRS makes a higher low → look for rebound opportunity.
Pairs Trading
Outperformance: Long your symbol + Short benchmark when CRS > MA.
Underperformance: Short your symbol + Long benchmark when CRS < MA.
Why it matters
Reveals relative market leadership early, not just absolute price moves.
Helps you allocate risk dynamically, spot rotations and catch reversals before they show in price alone.
Candle close on high time frameOVERVIEW
This indicator plots persistent closing levels of higher time frame candles (H1, H4, and Daily) on the active intraday chart in real time. Unlike similar tools, it offers granular control over line projection length, fully independent toggles per timeframe, and a built-in mechanism that automatically limits the total number of historical levels to avoid chart clutter and performance issues.
CONCEPTS
Key levels from higher time frames often act as areas where price reacts or consolidates. By projecting each candle's exact closing price forward as a horizontal reference, traders can quickly identify dynamic support and resistance zones relevant to the current price action. This indicator enables seamless multi-timeframe analysis without the need to manually switch chart intervals or re-draw lines.
FEATURES
Independent Time Frame Selection: Enable or disable H1, H4, and Daily levels individually to tailor the analysis.
Custom Extension Length: Each timeframe's closing level can be projected forward for a user-defined number of bars.
Performance Optimization: The script maintains an internal limit (default: 100) on the number of active lines. When this threshold is exceeded, the oldest lines are removed automatically.
Visual Differentiation: Colors for each timeframe are fully customizable, enabling immediate recognition of level origin.
Immediate Update: New levels appear as soon as a higher timeframe candle closes, ensuring real-time reference.
USAGE
From the indicator inputs, select which timeframes you want to track.
Adjust the extension lengths to fit your trading style and time horizon.
Customize the line colors for clarity and personal preference.
Use these projected levels as part of your confluence criteria for entries, exits, or stop placement.
Combine with trend indicators or price action tools to enhance your multi-timeframe strategy.
ORIGINALITY AND ADDED VALUE
While similar scripts exist that plot higher timeframe levels, this implementation differs in:

MVRV Ratio [Alpha Extract]The MVRV Ratio Indicator provides valuable insights into Bitcoin market cycles by tracking the relationship between market value and realized value. This powerful on-chain metric helps traders identify potential market tops and bottoms, offering clear buy and sell signals based on historical patterns of Bitcoin valuation.
🔶 CALCULATION The indicator processes MVRV ratio data through several analytical methods:
Raw MVRV Data: Collects MVRV data directly from INTOTHEBLOCK for Bitcoin
Optional Smoothing: Applies simple moving average (SMA) to reduce noise
Status Classification: Categorizes market conditions into four distinct states
Signal Generation: Produces trading signals based on MVRV thresholds
Price Estimation: Calculates estimated realized price (Current price / MVRV ratio)
Historical Context: Compares current values to historical extremes
Formula:
MVRV Ratio = Market Value / Realized Value
Smoothed MVRV = SMA(MVRV Ratio, Smoothing Length)
Estimated Realized Price = Current Price / MVRV Ratio
Distance to Top = ((3.5 / MVRV Ratio) - 1) * 100
Distance to Bottom = ((MVRV Ratio / 0.8) - 1) * 100
🔶 DETAILS Visual Features:
MVRV Plot: Color-coded line showing current MVRV value (red for overvalued, orange for moderately overvalued, blue for fair value, teal for undervalued)
Reference Levels: Horizontal lines indicating key MVRV thresholds (3.5, 2.5, 1.0, 0.8)
Zone Highlighting: Background color changes to highlight extreme market conditions (red for potentially overvalued, blue for potentially undervalued)
Information Table: Comprehensive dashboard showing current MVRV value, market status, trading signal, price information, and historical context
Interpretation:
MVRV ≥ 3.5: Potential market top, strong sell signal
MVRV ≥ 2.5: Overvalued market, consider selling
MVRV 1.5-2.5: Neutral market conditions
MVRV 1.0-1.5: Fair value, consider buying
MVRV < 1.0: Potential market bottom, strong buy signal
🔶 EXAMPLES
Market Top Identification: When MVRV ratio exceeds 3.5, the indicator signals potential market tops, highlighting periods where Bitcoin may be significantly overvalued.
Example: During bull market peaks, MVRV exceeding 3.5 has historically preceded major corrections, helping traders time their exits.
Bottom Detection: MVRV values below 1.0, especially approaching 0.8, have historically marked excellent buying opportunities.
Example: During bear market bottoms, MVRV falling below 1.0 has identified the most profitable entry points for long-term Bitcoin accumulation.
Tracking Market Cycles: The indicator provides a clear visualization of Bitcoin's market cycles from undervalued to overvalued states.
Example: Following the progression of MVRV from below 1.0 through fair value and eventually to overvalued territory helps traders position themselves appropriately throughout Bitcoin's market cycle.
Realized Price Support: The estimated realized price often acts as a significant
support/resistance level during market transitions.
Example: During corrections, price often finds support near the realized price level calculated by the indicator, providing potential entry points.
🔶 SETTINGS
Customization Options:
Smoothing: Toggle smoothing option and adjust smoothing length (1-50)
Table Display: Show/hide the information table
Table Position: Choose between top right, top left, bottom right, or bottom left positions
Visual Elements: All plots, lines, and background highlights can be customized for color and style
The MVRV Ratio Indicator provides traders with a powerful on-chain metric to identify potential market tops and bottoms in Bitcoin. By tracking the relationship between market value and realized value, this indicator helps identify periods of overvaluation and undervaluation, offering clear buy and sell signals based on historical patterns. The comprehensive information table delivers valuable context about current market conditions, helping traders make more informed decisions about market positioning throughout Bitcoin's cyclical patterns.
FA Dashboard: Valuation, Profitability & SolvencyFundamental Analysis Dashboard: A Multi-Dimensional View of Company Quality
This script presents a structured and customizable dashboard for evaluating a company’s fundamentals across three key dimensions: Valuation, Profitability, and Solvency & Liquidity.
Unlike basic fundamental overlays, this dashboard consolidates multiple financial indicators into visual tables that update dynamically and are grouped by category.

Valuation Ratios:
Earnings Yield: EBIT / EV
EV / EBIT and EV / FCF: Enterprise value metrics for profitability
Price-to-Book, Free Cash Flow Yield, PEG Ratio
Profitability Ratios:
Return on Invested Capital (ROIC), ROE, Operating, Net & Gross Margins, Revenue Growth
Solvency & Liquidity Ratios:
Debt to Equity, Debt to EBITDA, Current Ratio, Quick Ratio, Altman Z-Score
Each of these metrics is calculated using request.financial() and can be viewed using either annual (FY) or quarterly (FQ) data, depending on user preference.
🧠 How to Use
Add the script to any stock chart.
Select your preferred data period (FY or FQ).
Adjust thresholds if desired to match your personal investing strategy.
Review the visual dashboard to see which metrics the company passes or fails.
💡 Why It’s Useful
This tool is ideal for traders or long-term investors looking to filter stocks using fundamental criteria. It draws inspiration from principles used by Benjamin Graham, Warren Buffett, and Joel Greenblatt, offering a fast and informative way to screen quality businesses.

ETF Builder & Backtest System [TradeDots]Create, analyze, and monitor your own custom “ETF-like” portfolio directly on TradingView. This script merges up to 10 different assets with user-defined weightings into a single composite chart, allowing you to see how your personalized portfolio would have performed historically. It is an original tool designed to help traders and investors quickly gauge risk and return profiles without leaving the TradingView platform.
📝 HOW IT WORKS
1. Custom Portfolio Construction
Multiple Assets : Combine up to 10 different stocks, ETFs, cryptocurrencies, or other symbols.
User-Defined Weights : Allocate each asset a percentage weight (e.g., 15% in AAPL, 10% in MSFT, etc.).
Single Composite Value : The script calculates a weighted “ETF-style” price, effectively simulating a merged portfolio curve on your chart.
2. Performance Tracking & Return Analysis
Automatic History Capture : The indicator records each asset’s starting price when it first appears in your chosen date range.
Rolling Updates : As time progresses, all asset prices are continually evaluated and the portfolio value is updated in real time.
Buy & Hold Returns : See how each asset—and the overall portfolio—performed from the “start” date to the most recent bar.
Annualized Return : Automatically calculates CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) to help visualize performance over varying timescales.
3. Table & Visual Output
Performance Table : A comprehensive table displays individual asset returns, annualized returns, and portfolio totals.
Normalized Chart Plot : The composite ETF value is scaled to 100 at the start date, making it easy to compare relative growth or decline.
Optional Time Filter : You can define a specific date range (Start/End Dates) to focus on a particular period or to limit historical data.
⚙️ KEY FEATURES
1. Flexible Asset Selection
Choose any symbols from multiple asset classes. The script will only run calculations when data is available—no need to worry about missing quotes.
2. Dynamic Table Reporting
Start Price for each asset
Percentage Weight in the portfolio
Total Return (%) and Annualized Return (%)
3. Simple Backtesting Logic
This script takes a straightforward Buy & Hold perspective. Once the start date is reached, the portfolio remains static until the end date, so you can quickly assess hypothetical growth.
4. Plot Customization
Toggle the main “ETF” plot on/off.
Alter the visual style for tables and text.
Adjust the time filter to limit or extend your performance measurement window.
🚀 HOW TO USE IT
1. Add the Script
Search for “ETF Builder & Backtest System ” in the Indicators & Strategies tab or manually add it to your chart after saving it in your Pine Editor.
2. Configure Inputs
Enable Time Filter : Choose whether to restrict the analysis to a particular date range.
Start & End Date : Define the period you want to measure performance over (e.g., from 2019-12-31 to 2025-01-01).
Assets & Weights : Enter each symbol and specify a percentage weight (up to 10 assets).
Display Options : Pick where you want the Table to appear and choose background/text colors.
3. Interpret the Table & Plots
Asset Rows : Each asset’s ticker, weighting, start price, and performance metrics.
ETF Total Row : Summarizes total weighting, composite starting value, and overall returns.
Normalized Plot : Tracks growth/decline of the combined portfolio, starting at 100 on the chart.
4. Refine Your Strategy
Compare how different weights or a new mix of assets would have performed over the same period.
Assess if certain assets contribute disproportionately to your returns or volatility.
Use the results to guide allocations in your real trading or paper trading accounts.
❗️LIMITATIONS
1. Buy & Hold Only
This script does not handle rebalancing or partial divestments. Once the portfolio starts, weights remain fixed throughout the chosen timeframe.
2. No Reinvestment Tracking
Dividends or other distributions are not factored into performance.
3. Data Availability
If historical data for a particular asset is unavailable on TradingView, related results may display as “N/A.”
4. Market Regimes & Volatility
Past performance does not guarantee similar future behavior. Markets can change rapidly, which may render historical backtests less predictive over time.
