Candlestick analysis
Vector Candles [v6 Optimized + EMA]
Vector Candles represent an innovative technical analysis approach that transforms traditional candlestick charting by integrating volume dynamics, color-coded momentum, and multi-dimensional market insights. Unlike standard candlesticks that merely display price movement, Vector Candles encode additional market information through sophisticated color and volume algorithms.
Key Features:
-Dynamic Volume-Based Coloring: Candles change color based on trading volume intensity
-Volume Categories:
High Volume (Lime/Red): Significant market activity (200%+- Vol of Previous 10 Candles)
Above Average Volume (Blue/Fuchsia): Moderate market momentum (150%+- Vol of Previous 10 Candles).
Normal Volume (Gray Scales): Standard market conditions.
Stopping Volume Candles - Typically Pinbar/Doji candles. Stops volume in the current direction of delivery & can help forecast impending reversals or end to the current trend.
-Integrated EMA (Exponential Moving Average) Option:
-Customizable EMA Length (Default: 50 periods) (I use 33)
Configurable EMA Source (e.g., close price)
Optional EMA Overlay for Trend Confirmation
OrderFlow Sentiment SwiftEdgeOrderFlow Sentiment SwiftEdge
Overview
OrderFlow Sentiment SwiftEdge is a visual indicator designed to help traders analyze market dynamics through a simulated orderbook and market sentiment display. It breaks down the current candlestick into 10 price bins, estimating buy and sell volumes, and presents this data in an orderbook table alongside a sentiment row showing the buy vs. sell bias. This tool provides a quick and intuitive way to assess orderflow activity and market sentiment directly on your chart.
How It Works
The indicator consists of two main components: an Orderbook Table and a Market Sentiment Row.
Orderbook Table:
Simulates buy and sell volumes for the current candlestick by distributing total volume into 10 price bins based on price movement and proximity to open/close levels.
Displays the price bins in a table with columns for Price, Buy Volume, and Sell Volume, sorted from highest to lowest price.
Highlights the current price level in orange for easy identification, while buy and sell dominance is indicated with green (buy) or red (sell) backgrounds.
Market Sentiment Row:
Calculates the overall buy and sell sentiment (as a percentage) for the current candlestick based on the simulated orderflow data.
Displays the sentiment above the orderbook table, with the background colored green if buyers dominate or red if sellers dominate.
Features
Customizable Colors: Choose colors for buy (default: green), sell (default: red), and current price (default: orange) levels.
Lot Scaling Factor: Adjust the volume scaling factor (default: 0.1 lots per volume unit) to simulate realistic lot sizes.
Table Position: Select the table position on the chart (Top, Middle, or Bottom; default: Middle).
Default Properties
Positive Color: Green
Negative Color: Red
Current Price Color: Orange
Lot Scaling Factor: 0.1
Table Position: Middle
Usage
This indicator is ideal for traders who want to visualize orderflow dynamics and market sentiment in real-time. The orderbook table provides a snapshot of buy and sell activity at different price levels within the current candlestick, helping you identify areas of high buying or selling pressure. The sentiment row offers a quick overview of market bias, allowing you to gauge whether buyers or sellers are currently dominating. Use this information to complement your trading decisions, such as identifying potential breakout levels or confirming trend direction.
Limitations
This indicator simulates orderflow data based on candlestick price movement and volume, as TradingView does not provide tick-by-tick data. The volume distribution is an approximation and should be used as a visual aid rather than a definitive measure of market activity.
The indicator operates on the chart's current timeframe and does not incorporate higher timeframe data.
The simulated volumes are scaled using a user-defined lot scaling factor, which may not reflect actual market lot sizes.
Disclaimer
This indicator is for informational purposes only and does not guarantee trading results. Always conduct your own analysis and manage risk appropriately. The simulated orderflow data is an estimation and may not reflect real market conditions.
Liquidity Grab Strategy (Volume Trap)🧠 Strategy Logic:
Liquidity Grab Detection:
The script looks for a sharp drop in price (bearish engulfing or breakdown candle).
However, volume remains flat (within 5% of the 20-period moving average), suggesting the move is manipulated, not genuine.
Fair Value Gap Confirmation (FVG):
It confirms that a Fair Value Gap exists — a gap between recent candle bodies that price is likely to retrace into.
This gap represents a high-probability entry zone.
Trade Setup:
A limit BUY order is placed at the base of the FVG.
Stop Loss (SL) is placed below the gap.
Take Profit (TP) is placed at the most recent swing high.
📈 How to Use It:
Add the strategy to your TradingView chart (1–5 min or 15 min works well for intraday setups).
Look for green BUY labels and plotted lines:
💚 Green = Entry price
🔴 Red = Stop loss
🔵 Blue = Take profit
The script will automatically simulate entries when conditions are met and exit either at TP or SL.

Trend Revisit Pullback Strategy (Final Working Box)📈 Trend Revisit Pullback Strategy
This TradingView Pine Script strategy identifies strong trend breakouts and accounts for natural pullbacks by:
Entering long or short on strong 1-bar breakouts
Allowing for pullback averaging if price retraces after entry
Expecting a revisit to the original entry price within 15 bars
Automatically exiting at break-even or using a custom TP/SL
Drawing a visual trade zone (entry → SL → revisit window) for easy reference
Optional labels and color-coded boxes to track each trade’s lifecycle
Ideal for trend traders who anticipate a pullback and prefer to manage risk with break-even exits or reward-to-risk parameters.

Candle % High/Low Bar + HL Order + MA by Barty&PitPapcioWhat does the indicator show?
The "Candle % High/Low Bar + HL Order + MA by Barty&PitPapcio" indicator displays the percentage deviation of each candle’s high and low relative to its open price. The zero line represents the candle’s open — bars above zero show upward movement from the open (to high), bars below zero show downward movement (to low).
Additionally, the indicator plots a dot above or below each bar indicating which came first during the candle — the high or the low — based on data from a lower timeframe two steps below the current chart (for example, on a 1-hour chart it uses 15-minute data).
Finally, the indicator calculates and plots a user-selectable moving average (EMA, SMA, or WMA) of these "first high or low" signals, helping identify trends whether the first move is more often upwards or downwards.
Where do the data come from?
Percentage values are calculated directly from the current chart’s candles:
highPerc=(High−Open)/Open×100%,
lowPerc=(Low−Open)/Open×100%
The timing of the first high or low for each candle is retrieved from a lower timeframe, stepping down two levels from the current timeframe (e.g. from 1H to 15 min), providing better precision in detecting the order of highs and lows that may be blurred on higher timeframes.
Additional features:
Full customization of colors for bars, dots, zero line, grid, and thicknesses.
Background grid with adjustable scale and style.
Safety checks for missing lower timeframe data.
A moving average smoothing the sequence of first high/low signals to reveal directional tendencies.
Suggested strategy for technical analysis support
Identify dominant candle direction: If the dot often appears above the bar (first high), it indicates buying pressure; if below (first low), selling pressure dominates.
Use percentage deviations: Large percent bars indicate heightened volatility and potential reversal points.
Moving average on order signals: The EMA of high/low first signals smooths the noise, showing the dominant trend in the sequence of price moves, useful for filtering other signals.
Combine with other tools: This indicator can act as a directional filter on multiple timeframes, synergizing well with momentum indicators, RSI, or support/resistance levels to confirm move strength.

VWAP Breakout Strategy + EMAs + Clean Cycle/TP/SL PlotsHere’s a quick user-guide to get you up and running with your “VWAP Breakout Strategy + EMAs + Clean Cycle/TP/SL Plots” script in TradingView:
⸻
1. Installing the Script
1. Open TradingView, go to Pine Editor (bottom panel).
2. Paste in your full Pine-v6 code and hit Add to chart.
3. Save it (“Save as…”): give it a memorable name (e.g. “VWAP Breakout+EMAs”).
⸻
2. Configuring Your Inputs
Once it’s on the chart, click the ⚙️ Settings icon to tune:
Setting Default What it does
ATR Length 14 Period for average true range (volatility measure)
ATR Multiplier for Stop 1.5 How many ATRs away your stop-loss sits
TP1 / TP2 Multipliers (ATR) 1.0 / 2.0 Distance of TP1 and TP2 in ATR multiples
Show VWAP / EMAs On Toggles the blue VWAP line & EMAs (100/34/5)
Full Cycle Range Points 200 Height of the shaded “cycle zone”
Pivot Lookback 5 How many bars back to detect a pivot low
Round Number Step 500 Spacing of your dotted horizontal lines
Show TP/SL Labels On Toggles all the “ENTRY”, “TP1”, “TP2”, “STOP” tags
Feel free to adjust ATR multipliers and cycle-zone size based on the instrument’s typical range.
⸻
3. Reading the Signals
• Long Entry:
• Trigger: price crosses above VWAP
• You’ll see a green “Buy” tag at the low of the signal bar, plus an “ENTRY (Long)” label at the close.
• Stop is plotted as a red dashed line below (ATR × 1.5), and TP1/TP2 as teal and purple lines above.
• Short Entry:
• Trigger: price crosses below VWAP
• A red “Sell” tag appears at the high, with “ENTRY (Short)” at the close.
• Stop is the green line above; TP1/TP2 are dashed teal/purple lines below.
⸻
4. Full Cycle Zone
Whenever a new pivot low is detected (using your Pivot Lookback), the script deletes the old box and draws a shaded yellow rectangle from that low up by “Full Cycle Range Points.”
• Use this to visualize the “maximum expected swing” from your pivot.
• You can quickly see whether price is still traveling within a normal cycle or has overstretched.
⸻
5. Round-Number Levels
With Show Round Number Levels enabled, you’ll always get horizontal dotted lines at the nearest multiples of your “Round Number Step” (e.g. every 500 points).
• These often act as psychological support/resistance.
• Handy to see confluence with VWAP or cycle-zone edges.
⸻
6. Tips & Best-Practices
• Timeframes: Apply on any intraday chart (5 min, 15 min, H1…), but match your ATR length & cycle-points to the timeframe’s typical range.
• Backtest first: Use the Strategy Tester tab to review performance, tweak ATR multipliers or cycle size, then optimize.
• Combine with context: Don’t trade VWAP breakouts blindly—look for confluence (e.g. support/resistance zones, higher-timeframe trend).
• Label clutter: If too many labels build up, you can toggle Show TP/SL Labels off and rely just on the lines.
⸻
That’s it! Once you’ve added it to your chart and dialed in the inputs, your entries, exits, cycle ranges, and key levels will all be plotted automatically. Feel free to experiment with the ATR multipliers and cycle-zone size until it fits your instrument’s personality. Happy trading!

No Supply / No Demand Candle AlertsNo Supply Candle: A No Supply candle generally has a large body (close near high) with low volume. So, you would likely want the body percentage to be high, meaning the price action is concentrated near the high of the candle.
No Demand Candle: A No Demand candle generally has a large body (close near low) with low volume. You would want a high body percentage but with the close near low.
Gamma Blast Detector (Nifty)The Gamma Blast Detector (Nifty) is a custom TradingView indicator designed to help intraday traders identify sudden and explosive price movements—commonly referred to as "gamma blasts"—in the Nifty index during the final minutes of the trading session, particularly on expiry days. These movements are typically caused by rapid delta changes in ATM options, resulting in aggressive short-covering or option unwinding.
This indicator specifically monitors price action between 3:10 PM and 3:20 PM IST, which translates to 09:40 AM to 09:50 AM UTC on TradingView. It is optimized for use on 5-minute charts of the Nifty spot or futures index, where gamma-driven volatility is most likely to occur during this time window.
The core logic behind the indicator involves identifying unusually large candles within this time frame. It compares the size of the current candle to the average size of the previous five candles. If the current candle is at least twice as large and shows clear direction (bullish or bearish), the script flags it as a potential gamma blast. A bullish candle suggests a Call Option (CE) is likely to blast upward, while a bearish candle points to a Put Option (PE) gaining sharply.
When such a condition is detected, the indicator visually marks the candle on the chart: a "CE 🚀" label is shown below the candle for a bullish move, and a "PE 🔻" label appears above for a bearish move. It also includes alert conditions, allowing users to set real-time alerts for potential blasts and act quickly.
This tool is especially useful for expiry day scalpers, option traders, and anyone looking to ride momentum generated by gamma effects in the final minutes of the market. It provides a visual and alert-based edge to anticipate short-term, high-impact moves often missed in normal technical analysis.
