Call and Put signals[vivekm8955]🔍 Strategy Overview
This adaptive strategy generates clear CALL (Buy) and PUT (Sell) signals by combining:
✅ Dual EMA structure
✅ Heikin Ashi trend confirmation
✅ Smoothed Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI)
✅ Take Profit (TP) signals via momentum reversal
✅ Dynamic support from average price action
The goal: Give retail traders institutional-grade signals with clarity, without lag.
📊 Trade Entry Logic
🔼 CALL Signal (Buy):
Fast EMA < Avg Price
Slow EMA < Avg Price
Slow EMA < Fast EMA
Confirmed by crossover
➡️ This implies price has dipped below value zones and is showing strength.
🔽 PUT Signal (Sell):
Fast EMA > Avg Price
Slow EMA > Avg Price
Slow EMA > Fast EMA

Candlestick analysis
Price discovery indicatorGives an ability to show places where price drops more than n percent in x candles. Use cases: see dips of btc, get a notification when a stablecoin goes crazy, validate that webhook integration works as expected using keep alive messages.
Features included:
- Price dip alerts. Create an alert that sends a notification every time price dips more than expected (yellow zone at the chart).
- Percentage drop threshold. Define how many percents price should drop to trigger an alert and to show a yellow zone.
- Candles length threshold. Define within how many candles this drop should happen. If price drops in 2% within 10 candles, but this option is 5 - the alert will not be triggered because price dropped not as fast as expected.
- Templates of messages on price dip and price recovery. Set your message that should be triggered with alert.
- Keep alive feature. Set to trigger keep alive alerts every period. Can be helpful if you don't check charts often - this feature will trigger alert every period with "hey, the integration is alive" message. I use it to validate on weekly basis that tradingview triggers my alerts (example: you created an alert with expiration date and forgot to recreate it), that webhook integration receives these alerts, that the integration sends these alerts to telegram. Example: I expect to see this message every monday's morning, otherwise something is broken and I have to check what is wrong with my alerting system.
Impulse Alert - Demand (Buy) [Fixed]🔵 Impulse Alert – Demand (Buy)
This indicator is designed to detect high-probability Demand Zones based on impulsive bullish price action, helping traders get alerted only when it matters most.
🧠 Core Logic:
Scans the chart for 2 consecutive bullish impulsive candles with significant range (body size)
Also captures single large bullish impulse candles that often mark institutional buying
Marks the origin of the move as a potential Demand Zone
Sends alerts when such bullish setups form, allowing you to monitor charts passively
⚙️ Features:
✅ Alerts on impulsive move formations
✅ Detects both 2-candle and single-candle impulses
✅ Custom zone detection logic based on pip size and momentum
✅ Cleaner & smarter: removes distractions and avoids false signals
📌 Best Used For:
Smart Money / Supply & Demand traders
Identifying potential institutional buy zones
Executing trades with HTF confluence
Traders who want to get alerted without screen-watching
🔁 Suggested Strategy:
Set HTF directional bias (H1, H4, D1)
Use this indicator on LTF (1M–15M) for impulsive bullish entries
Wait for price to return to the marked zone for low-risk entries
💡 Pro Tip: Combine with your Supply Zone (Sell) indicator to track both sides of market structure and increase R:R

Average Daily Range in TicksPurpose: The ADR Ticks Indicator calculates and displays the average daily price range of a financial instrument, expressed in ticks, over a user-specified number of days. It provides traders with a measure of average daily volatility, which can be used for position sizing, setting stop-loss/take-profit levels, or assessing market activity.
Calculation: Computes the average daily range by taking the difference between the daily high and low prices, averaging this range over a customizable number of days, and converting the result into ticks (using the instrument's minimum tick size).
Customization: Includes a user input to adjust the number of days for the average calculation and a toggle to show/hide the ADR Ticks value in the table.
Risk Management: Helps traders estimate typical daily price movement to set appropriate stop-loss or take-profit levels.
Market Analysis: Offers insight into average daily volatility, useful for day traders or swing traders assessing whether a market is trending or ranging.
Technical Notes:
The indicator uses barstate.islast to update the table only on the last bar, reducing computational load and preventing overlap.
The script handles different chart timeframes by pulling daily data via request.security, making it robust across various instruments and timeframes.
52/26/13/4 High WeekThis is a tool to identify the 52-week high of a candlestick for use in breakout strategies. It can be used in conjunction with Pocket Pivot and EMA or Volume.
It is ideal for studying price behavior and trend following.
CVD Divergence + Volume HMA RSI MACD StrategyHow the script works:
The script calculates the HMA for trend direction. The HMA (shown in orange) is used as a filter: long trades are taken only if price is above the HMA, and short trades when below.
The CVD is computed by cumulatively adding volume on up bars and subtracting volume on down bars.
Pivot routines (with the input "Pivot Length") detect swing lows/highs for both price and CVD. A bullish divergence is flagged when the price makes a lower low while the CVD makes a higher low. Similarly, a bearish divergence is flagged when the price makes a higher high while the CVD makes a lower high.
Trading is triggered when the divergence condition also agrees with the HMA filter.
Feel free to further adjust the parameters or add risk‐management/exit rules as needed for your trading style.

Stochastic Trend Signal with MTF FilterMulti-Timeframe Stochastic Trend Filter – Real Signals with Confirmation Candles
This script is a multi-timeframe Stochastic trend filter designed to help traders identify reliable BUY/SELL signals based on both momentum and higher-timeframe trend context.
It combines three key components:
Entry Signal Logic:
Entry is based on the Stochastic Oscillator (%K, 14,3), where overbought/oversold conditions are detected in the current chart's timeframe.
A green (bullish) candle following a red candle with %K below 20 can trigger a BUY signal.
A red (bearish) candle following a green candle with %K above 80 can trigger a SELL signal.
Trend Confirmation – Daily Filter:
The script uses Stochastic on the 1D (Daily) timeframe to determine whether short-term momentum aligns with a broader daily trend.
BUY signals are only allowed if the Daily %K is above 50.
SELL signals are only allowed if the Daily %K is below 50.
Long-Term Trend Filter – Weekly Stochastic:
A second filter uses Weekly %K:
BUY signals are suppressed if the Weekly trend is bearish (Weekly %K < 50) while Daily %K is bullish (> 50).
SELL signals are suppressed if the Weekly trend is bullish (Weekly %K > 50) while Daily %K is bearish (< 50).
🖼️ The chart background changes color to visually assist users:
Green background: bullish alignment on Daily and Weekly Stochastic.
Red background: bearish alignment.
Gray background: trend conflict (Daily and Weekly disagree).
✅ This script is ideal for swing traders or position traders who want to enter with confirmation while avoiding false signals during trend conflict zones.
🔔 Alerts are provided for BUY and SELL signals once all conditions are met.
How to use:
Apply on timeframe (4H recommended).
Add alerts for "BUY Alert" and "SELL Alert".
Use background color and plotted labels as entry filters.
Disclaimer: This is not financial advice. Always use proper risk management and test on demo accounts first.

Clean ATR LevelsSimple 14D ATR +1 & -1 display from PM to Close.
The Clean ATR Levels indicator is a powerful Pine Script tool designed to provide traders with dynamic support and resistance levels based on the Average True Range (ATR) calculation. This indicator automatically draws horizontal lines that represent key price levels where significant market reactions are likely to occur, helping traders identify potential entry and exit points throughout the trading session.
The core functionality centers around calculating ATR levels using the most recent daily close as the reference point. The script draws two primary levels: an upper level at +100% ATR above the current close and a lower level at -100% ATR below the current close. These levels represent statistically significant price zones where the market has historically shown increased volatility and potential reversal patterns. Additionally, the indicator includes an optional previous close line that serves as a psychological reference point for intraday price action.
What sets this indicator apart is its intelligent session management and clean visual presentation. The lines are automatically redrawn at the start of each new trading day and are programmed to extend precisely until 4 PM EST market close, eliminating visual clutter on the chart. This session-aware approach ensures that traders are always working with the most relevant levels for the current trading day without having outdated lines extending unnecessarily into future sessions.
The indicator also features a comprehensive information table that displays real-time values for the ATR calculation, current close price, and both upper and lower ATR levels. This provides traders with exact numerical references without having to manually calculate these critical values. The script is highly customizable, allowing users to adjust the ATR period, line colors, widths, and choose whether to display the previous close reference line, making it adaptable to various trading styles and visual preferences.
Fat Tails Analyzer🧠 Fat Tails Analyzer — Analysis of Anomalous ("Fat-Tailed") Movements
📌 Description
Fat Tails Analyzer is a tool for analyzing "fat tails" in the distribution of returns. Unlike normal distribution, financial markets often exhibit frequent extreme movements. This indicator identifies and visualizes such events by analyzing logarithmic returns, deviations from normal distribution, and excess kurtosis.
🔬 Methodology
Logarithmic returns (ln(Close / Close )) are calculated for accurate aggregation and symmetry.
Moving average and standard deviation of returns are computed over a specified period.
"Fat-tailed" events are identified when returns exceed μ ± k·σ, where k is user-defined.
Normal distribution bands (±2σ) and kurtosis (a measure of tail "heaviness") are displayed for clarity.
📊 What It Displays
📈 Histogram of Returns: Green for positive, red for negative.
🟣 Fat Tail Threshold Lines: Marking extreme events.
⚪ Silver Normal Distribution Bands: ±2σ boundaries.
🔵 Kurtosis Line: If enabled.
📋 Table with Key Metrics: Mean, σ, kurtosis.
⚙️ Parameters
Lookback Period (Bars): Analysis period (default: 252).
Fat Tail Threshold (Std Devs): Deviation for extreme events (k, default: 2.5).
Show Normal Distribution Bands: Toggle ±2σ boundaries.
Show Kurtosis: Enable kurtosis analysis mode.
📌 Interpretation
Excess Kurtosis > 0: More extreme events than predicted by normal distribution.
Returns beyond fat-tail thresholds: Potential signals of panic, shock, or exceptional news.
Consistently high kurtosis: Unstable or speculative asset.
🧪 Applications
📉 Identify extreme risks in assets (especially cryptocurrencies and derivatives).
🧠 Study market behavior and dispersion.
🛡 Support risk analysis, stop-loss settings, and systemic risk assessment.
🔎 Compare assets by the "normality" of their behavior.
🧭 Live Metrics Table
Displayed in the bottom-right corner:
Mean return
Standard deviation
Excess kurtosis (color-coded by value)
🧠 Good to Know
Normal distribution has kurtosis = 0.
> 0: "Fat tails" (more extreme values).
< 0: "Thin tails" (values close to the mean).
Volume Peak LineA fully configurable “Volume Peak Line” indicator that draws a horizontal threshold at the highest volume over the last X candles (default 5).
Custom lookback (X volume candles)
Optional alert when current volume exceeds that peak
Separate up/down volume bars (green/red) or hide them to use your own volume overlays
Use it to spot surges in trading activity on any timeframe—ideal for intraday or swing setups where a barn-burner volume bar can signal a reversal or the start of a new trend.
Candle Ghosts: MTF 3 Candle Viewer by Chaitu50cCandle Ghosts: MTF 3 Candle Viewer helps you see candles from other timeframes directly on your chart. It shows the last 3 candles from a selected timeframe as semi-transparent boxes, so you can compare different timeframes without switching charts.
You can choose to view candles from 30-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, daily, or weekly timeframes. The candles are drawn with their full open, high, low, and close values, including the wicks, so you get a clear view of their actual shape and size.
The indicator lets you adjust the position of the candles using horizontal and vertical offset settings. You can also control the spacing between the candles for better visibility.
An optional EMA (Exponential Moving Average) from the selected timeframe is also included to help you understand the overall trend direction.
This tool is useful for:
Intraday traders who want to see higher timeframe candles for better decisions
Swing traders checking lower timeframe setups
Anyone doing top-down analysis using multiple timeframes on a single chart
This is a simple and visual way to study how candles from different timeframes behave together in one place.
Previous Candle High/Low (Clean)✅ Creates one horizontal line for the previous candle’s high (green).
✅ Creates one horizontal line for the previous candle’s low (red).
✅ The lines update on each new candle, always following the most recent previous high/low.
✅ The lines are extended to the right — they don’t stack or clutter the chart.
✅ Works on all timeframes.
Volume-Based Candle ShadingThe Volume Shading indicator dynamically adjusts the color brightness of each price bar based on relative volume levels. It helps traders quickly identify whether a candle formed on low, average, or high volume without needing to reference a separate volume pane.
Candles are shaded dynamically as they form, so you can watch volume flow into them in real time. This indicator is designed to be as minimally intrusive as possible, allowing you to visualize volume levels without extra clutter on your charts.
The additional volume indicator in the preview above is there just for a point of reference to allow you to see how the shading on the bars correlates to the volume.
⸻
SETTINGS:
Bullish and bearish base colors — These serve as the midpoint (average volume) for shading.
Brightness mapping direction — Optionally invert the shading so that either high volume appears darker or lighter.
Volume smoothing length — Defines how many bars are averaged to determine what constitutes “normal” volume.
Candles with volume above average will appear darker or lighter depending on user preference, while those with average volume will be painted the chosen colors, giving an intuitive gradient that enhances volume awareness directly on the chart.
⸻
USES:
Confirming price action: Highlight when breakout candles or reversal bars occur with high relative volume, strengthening signal conviction.
Spotting low-volume moves: Identify candles that lack volume support, potentially signaling weak continuation or false breakouts.
Enhancing visual analysis: Overlay volume dynamics directly onto price bars, reducing screen clutter and aiding faster decision-making.
Custom visual workflows: Adapt the visual behavior of candles to your trading style by choosing color direction and base tones.
X Opens+Overview:
The X Opens+ indicator is a precision tool designed for traders seeking to analyze market structure and behavior around key timeframe opens. It highlights the open prices of custom-selected higher timeframes—such as daily, weekly, or monthly sessions—and visualizes them directly on lower timeframes. These open levels often coincide with high-volume zones, market imbalance, and institutional interest, making them powerful reference points for intraday and swing trading strategies.
Key Features:
Custom Timeframe Anchoring: Users can select any timeframe (e.g., daily, 4H, 1W) to display its current and previous session opens directly on their active chart. This allows for flexible multi-timeframe analysis within a single view.
Price Reaction Zones: Timeframe opens are frequently areas of heightened liquidity and directional bias. By identifying these opens and their relationship to current price action, traders can anticipate areas of support/resistance, trend continuation, or reversal.
Derived Midpoints and Ranges: The indicator also computes and displays the previous session’s range midpoint (EQ), as well as extension bands (e.g., ±1.0x or ±1.5x the prior range). These levels are useful for contextualizing volatility expansion and identifying breakout or fade setups around key open zones.
Historical Session Mapping: In addition to live opens, the tool optionally displays opens and range-based levels from previous sessions. This historical layering gives traders a broader context of how price has respected or rejected these levels over time.
Labeling and Customization: Each level can be labeled and color-coded to match user preferences. The visibility, size, and style of each element (e.g., lines, labels, bands) are fully configurable for visual clarity and user alignment.
Use Cases:
Confirming bias around daily or weekly opens, especially during market opens or key economic releases.
Identifying equilibrium levels for mean reversion or continuation setups.
Using ±1.0 and ±1.5 range projections as dynamic targets or invalidation zones.
Anchoring to key sessions for volume profile or order flow-based strategies.
Summary:
X Opens+ is a data-driven utility that transforms static session opens into dynamic market tools. By spotlighting where institutional interest likely concentrates—at the opens of significant timeframes—this indicator provides traders with a structural edge in identifying key zones that influence price behavior throughout the trading day or week
50/100 EMA Crossover with Candle Confirmation📘 **50/100 EMA Crossover with Candle Confirmation – Strategy Description**
The **50/100 EMA Crossover with Candle Confirmation** is a trend-following strategy designed to filter high-probability entries by combining exponential moving average (EMA) crossovers with strong price action confirmation. This strategy aims to reduce false signals commonly associated with EMA-only systems by requiring a **candle close confirmation in the direction of the trend**, making it more reliable for intraday or swing trading across Forex, crypto, and stock markets.
---
### 🔍 **Core Logic**
* The strategy is based on the interaction of the **50 EMA** (fast-moving average) and the **100 EMA** (slow-moving average).
* **Trend direction** is determined by the crossover:
* **Bullish Trend**: When the 50 EMA crosses **above** the 100 EMA.
* **Bearish Trend**: When the 50 EMA crosses **below** the 100 EMA.
* To **filter out false breakouts**, a **candle confirmation** is used:
* For a **Buy signal**: After a bullish crossover, wait for a strong bullish candle (e.g., full-body green candle) to **close above both EMAs**.
* For a **Sell signal**: After a bearish crossover, wait for a strong bearish candle to **close below both EMAs**.
---
### ✅ **Entry Conditions**
**Buy Entry:**
* 50 EMA crosses above 100 EMA.
* Latest candle closes **above both EMAs**.
* Candle must be bullish (green/full body preferred).
**Sell Entry:**
* 50 EMA crosses below 100 EMA.
* Latest candle closes **below both EMAs**.
* Candle must be bearish (red/full body preferred).
---
### 🛑 **Exit or Take-Profit Options**
* **Fixed TP/SL**: 1:2 or 1:3 risk-reward.
* **Trailing Stop**: Based on recent swing highs/lows or ATR.
* **EMA Exit**: Exit trade when the candle closes on the opposite side of 50 EMA.
---
### ⚙️ **Best Settings**
* **Timeframes**: 5M, 15M, 1H, 4H (works well on most).
* **Markets**: Forex, Crypto (e.g., BTC/ETH), Indices (e.g., NASDAQ, NIFTY50).
* **Recommended filters**:
* Use with RSI divergence or volume confirmation.
* Avoid using during high-impact news (especially on lower timeframes).
---
### 🧠 **Why This Works**
The 50/100 EMA crossover provides a **medium-term trend signal**, reducing noise seen in fast EMAs (like 9 or 21). The candle confirmation adds a **momentum filter**, ensuring price supports the directional bias. This makes it suitable for traders who want a balance of trend and entry precision without overcomplicating with too many indicators.
---
### 📈 **Advantages**
* Simple yet effective for identifying trends.
* Filters out fakeouts using candle confirmation.
* Easy to automate in Pine Script or other trading bots.
* Can be combined with support/resistance or SMC zones for better confluence.
---
### ⚠️ **Limitations**
* May lag slightly in ranging markets.
* Late entries possible due to confirmation candle.
* Works best with additional volume or volatility filter.

Apex Edge - VantageApex Edge – Vantage
Quarter-Wick Reversal System | Price Action Based | Non-Repainting | Visual Confirmation Tool
Overview:
Apex Edge – Vantage is a precision price action indicator built to assist traders in identifying high-probability reversal entries — not based on indicators, but on how candles behave at their extremes.
This tool implements a clean, repeatable framework that reflects how I personally trade:
Spot a candle that closes with strong directional intent,
Then wait for a controlled pullback into the outer quarter,
And strike — only if price respects that line.
There’s no magic here — just raw, tactical logic visualized clearly on your chart. It's not designed to predict the market — it's built to respond when price offers you Vantage.
Core Logic:
Dot Detection – Final Quarter Close Candles
A green dot prints below a bullish candle if it closes within the top 25% of its wick-to-wick range.
A red dot prints above a bearish candle if it closes within the bottom 25% of its range.
These dots signify candles that made a strong, deliberate move in one direction — where price was pushed to an extreme and held that extreme into the close. These candles often signal institutional intent or momentum imbalance.
Entry Confirmation – Controlled Wick Rebalance
On the very next candle only, price must wick into the prior dot candle's outer quarter — but must not pass beyond it.
For buy entries, the wick must enter the bottom 25% of the previous green dot candle, but not dip below it.
For sell entries, the wick must reach into the top 25% of the red dot candle, but not exceed it.
This wick into the quarter is seen as a controlled rebalancing — a tactical reaction back into the origin zone before potential continuation.
Arrow Printing – Visual Entry Signal
Once the entry criteria are confirmed, an arrow is printed after the candle closes.
This arrow continues to print on each new candle as long as price does not violate the original entry zone — giving visual confirmation that the trade thesis is still valid.
If price breaks above/below the quarter range, the arrow disappears.
This ongoing confirmation is useful for staying in trades, managing risk, or spotting failed setups early.
Automatic Stop Loss Level
A horizontal Stop Loss line is drawn from the extreme wick of the original dot candle.
For buy entries, SL is placed below the green dot candle's low.
For sell entries, SL is placed above the red dot candle's high.
This provides immediate risk context — perfect for traders using limit orders or looking to scale in.
Coding Logic:
This script uses plotshape() and plot() functions for all visual elements.
Dot candles are identified using quarter-range logic via:
pinescript
Copy
Edit
close >= high - (high - low) * 0.25 // for bullish
close <= low + (high - low) * 0.25 // for bearish
Entry validation logic triggers only on the next candle, using:
pinescript
Copy
Edit
low >= quarterLine and low <= high // for buy entries
high <= quarterLine and high >= low // for sell entries
Arrows and SL lines are plotted only on closed candles, ensuring non-repainting behavior.
alertcondition() is used for real-time alerts on valid buy/sell triggers.
How I Personally Use It:
I wait for a dot to print — this shows directional conviction.
On the next candle, I watch for a tap into the outer quarter.
If the wick meets the criteria and the candle closes, I’ll execute manually at the close of that candle.
As long as the arrow remains on the chart, I know the setup hasn’t been invalidated.
I combine this with market structure, session timing, and liquidity context to build confluence around each trade.
Alerts Included:
Buy Entry Alert: When a green arrow prints (entry confirmed)
Sell Entry Alert: When a red arrow prints (entry confirmed)
These fire once per confirmed signal, allowing you to react in real-time or automate if desired.
Who This Is For:
Manual traders who want clean price-based entries
Anyone who uses market structure, SMC, or liquidity concepts
Traders looking to replace indicators with pure candle logic
Discretionary or semi-systematic traders who want visual tools to guide their decisions
Final Word
Apex Edge – Vantage doesn’t predict price — it shows you where price is offering you control.
This is a surgical tool designed to help you act only when the market gives you a measurable edge — and to stay in the trade as long as that edge holds.
If you're ready to stop chasing trades and start striking from a position of Vantage, then this tool belongs on your chart.
Trading session High/Low (Lumiere)Trading session High/Low
What it does:
Plots the High and Low for each session (Asia, London, New York) as horizontal zones that “snap” to the first true extreme of the session and then extend right.
Key points:
Snap‑to‑extreme only: Lines don’t draw at the open; they appear only once price makes a new session high or low, and anchor exactly at that bar.
Persistent until next session: Once drawn, each session’s lines stay on the chart after the session ends, and are cleared only when that same session next opens (or when you hide it).
Three configurable sessions:
Asia: 18:00–03:00 (UTC‑4)
London: 03:00–09:30 (UTC‑4)
New York: 09:30–16:00 (UTC‑4)
Customizable appearance:
You can toggle each session on/off, choose its color, and set line width.
The time that is already set on the different sessions is based on the standard session open/close. If you want to change it, it will refer to the NY time, UTC -4.
Hybrid candles by Marian BDescription
-------------
This script it does a very simple thing: it will color the candles according to the HeikenAshi rules.
It will keep the regular candle shape, but with the HeikenAshi colors. Some traders find it useful, especially those using the ATS methodology.
Originality
-------------
This script is not at all orginal and it will not make you win trades. There are a few others out there, but I could not find a public one that also colors the wicks; most of them just handle the color of the candle body.

See a sample screenshot how it will look like.
