Power Trends [UkutaLabs]█ OVERVIEW
The Power Trends Indicator is a versatile trading toolkit that offers unique insight into key price levels in the market. This script uses currently relevant price-action information to automatically detect pivot levels and use them to create powerful trendlines.
The aim of this script is to improve the trading experience of users by offering a versatile toolkit that can be used in a wide variety of trading strategies to help simplify the complexities of the market.
█ USAGE
The Power Trends Indicator will automatically identify pivot points in real-time using recent price-action information to ensure that all points being identified are relevant. Using these pivot points, the script then draws powerful trend lines that can be used as levels of resistance and support.
To ensure that only the most relevant information is being presented, only the most recent trend lines will be displayed on the user’s charts. As new trend lines are being drawn, older trend lines will become thinner so that traders can identify the most relevant lines at a glance.
The price of the most recent high and low pivot points will also be displayed on the chart and can be used as further levels of resistance and support.
When a recent pivot level is broken, it will be identified as a Break of Structure. This signifies that there may have been a change in market strength.
The Power Trends Indicator also supports multiple time frame mapping, allowing you to mirror the trend lines that would be drawn on higher time frame charts onto lower time frame charts. This feature allows traders to be aware of the market structure of multiple charts at a glance from a single chart.
When mirroring some higher time frame trend lines, lines may appear to not align properly with current time frame bars. This is done intentionally to ensure lines are being drawn accurately to their position on the higher time frame charts.

Fair Value Gap [UkutaLabs]█ OVERVIEW
Fair Value Gaps are price jumps caused by the imbalance buying and selling pressures in trading and are most commonly used amongst price action traders. Fair Value Gaps are formed via a three-candle sequence in which a large candle’s neighbouring candles’ upper and lower wicks do not fully overlap the large candle.
The Fair Value Gaps Indicator also supports Multi Time Frame Plotting, allowing you to plot the Fair Value Gaps from higher time frames onto lower time frame charts.
The Fair Value Gaps Indicator is a powerful trading toolkit that provides users with more information than they would typically have available to them by allowing them to configure several charts worth of information onto one single chart.
█ USAGE
The script automatically identifies imbalances between buying and selling pressure in the market in real time, offering traders valuable insight into current market sentiment. These gaps are considered to be levels where the supply and demand of a commodity are imbalanced, and the price tends to return to fill these gaps (But are not guaranteed to).

Bearish Exit:
Condition: The Stochastic colour turns green (%K crosses above %D).
Additional Considerations:
Time Frame Selection : The chosen time frame for both the EMA and Stochastic calculations should align with the trader’s strategy (e.g., daily for swing trading, hourly for intraday trading).
Risk Management : Implement stop-loss orders to manage risk effectively. The stop-loss can be placed below the recent swing low for long positions and above the recent swing high for short positions.
Confirmation : Consider using this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to confirm signals and reduce the likelihood of false entries and exits.
ThePawnAlgoThe Pawn Algo is a simple indicator that is useful for scalping in sync with a higher timeframe should only be use in clear trending markets.
What it does and How it does it?
The script is based of a simple pattern close above previous candle high means higher prices we can see it in a green bar. Close below previous candle low means lower prices we can see it in a red bar. Close inside previous candle range means price is going to consolidate do some kind of retracement or reversal we mark it in a black or dark color bar.
It plot an arrow and a liquidity level when it detects a change in sentiment from bullish to bearish or bearish to bullish.
It plot the Higher timeframe previous completed candle range into the selected Lower timeframe to easily see the HTF levels into the lower timeframe.
The HTF range change colors depending of previous HTF candles closes following the same idea, close above previous candle high means green range, close below previous candle low means red range and close inside means a gray range. Finally it plots the 50% of the HTF range and the previous close high and low.
Finally it draws a yellow value zone that is the difference between the previous candle close and 50% of the previous range. This zone is ideal for taking continuation trades in favor of the HTF trend.
How to use it?
You must first select a higher timeframe in minutes in the settings default value is 1440minutes then select a lower timeframe is the maximum timeframe in where the HTF will be visible. Default lower timeframe is 15minutes.
Then just wait for the HTF candle to close and engage in the LTF when price is around the value yellow zone in a premium or discount.
Green arrows are automatically plot when HTF is bullish and Red arrows when is bearish by default. But you can enable or disable the arrow signals liquidity levels or configure as you want. Making all signals visible or just the buys or sells.
The script is useful to easily identify the HTF draw on liquidity and recent key levels and then use the LTF structure to enter.
The indicator can be used to identify liquidity, price will seek this liquidity point sometimes sweep and then continue the move. if the liquidity or stop level is broken with a body is a clear change of direction.

Time - Bar StatusCandlestick analysis
The Indicator "Bar Status" will display the current open candle state and the last three close candles state based on the logic below.
Abbreviations.
OC = Open Candle (if in no state listed below)
FB = False Break
BO = Break Out
IN = Inside Bar
FBR = False Break Reversal
Logic:
OC = This is the current open candle yet to close. Its status will change as it progresses through time until close.

Power Hour Money StrategyDescription of the Pine Script Code: "Power Hour Money Strategy"
This Pine Script strategy, "Power Hour Money Strategy," is designed to trade based on the alignment of multiple time frames (month, week, day, and hour). The strategy aims to enter long or short positions depending on whether all selected time frames are in sync (all green for long positions, all red for short positions). Additionally, the script includes configurations for trading during specific sessions and automatically closing positions at the end of the trading day.
Core Features:
1. Time Frame Sync Check:
- The strategy evaluates whether the current price is higher than the opening price for the month, week, day, and hour to determine if each time frame is "green" (bullish) or "red" (bearish).
2. Session Control:
- The user can select between different trading sessions:
- "NY Session 9:30-11:30"
- "Extended NY Session 8-4"
- "All Sessions"
- Trades are only executed if the current time falls within the selected session.
3. Trailing Stop Mechanism:
- The strategy includes an optional trailing stop mechanism for both long and short positions.
- The trailing stop is configured with a percentage loss from the current price to protect gains.
4. End-of-Day Position Management:
- An option is provided to automatically close all positions at the end of the trading day (5:45 PM Eastern Time).
Detailed Code Breakdown:
1. Input Settings:
- **Session Selection**: Allows the user to choose the trading session.
- **End-of-Day Close**: Option to automatically close positions at the end of the day.
- **Trailing Stop Loss**: Enables or disables the trailing stop loss feature and sets the percentage for long and short positions.
2. Time Frame Calculations:
- The script uses `request.security` to get the opening prices for higher time frames (monthly, weekly, daily, and hourly).
- It compares the current close price to these opening prices to determine if each time frame is green or red.
3. Session Time Definitions:
- Defines the start and end times for the NY session (9:30-11:30 AM) and the extended session (8:00 AM - 4:00 PM).
4. Trade Execution:
- The strategy checks if all selected time frames are in sync and if the current time falls within the trading session.
- If all conditions are met, it enters a long or short position.
5. Trailing Stop Loss Implementation:
- Adjusts the stop price based on the trailing percentage and the current position's size.
- Automatically exits positions if the trailing stop condition is met.
6. End-of-Day Close Implementation:
- Uses a timestamp to check if the current time is 5:45 PM Eastern Time.
- Closes all positions if the end-of-day condition is met.
7. Plotting and Logging:
- Plots indicators to visualize the green/red status of each time frame.
- Logs information about the status of each time frame for debugging and analysis.
Example Usage:
Entering a Long Position: If the month, week, day, and hour are all green and the current time is within the selected session, a long position is entered.
Entering a Short Position: If the month, week, day, and hour are all red and the current time is within the selected session, a short position is entered.
Trailing Stop: Protects gains by exiting the position if the price moves against the set trailing stop percentage.
End-of-Day Close: Automatically closes all open positions at 5:45 PM Eastern Time if enabled.
This strategy is particularly useful for traders who want to ensure that multiple time frames are in alignment before entering a trade and who wish to manage positions effectively throughout the trading day with specific session controls and trailing stops.

ICT Turtle Soup | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new ICT Turtle Soup Indicator! This indicator is built around the ICT "Turtle Soup" model. The strategy has 5 steps for execution which are described in this write-up. For more information about the process, check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new ICT Turtle Soup Indicator :
Implementation of ICT's Turtle Soup Strategy
Adaptive Entry Method
Customizable Execution Settings
Customizable Backtesting Dashboard
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP & SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The ICT Turtle Soup strategy may have different implementations depending on the selected method of the trader. This indicator's implementation is described as :
1. Mark higher timerame liquidity zones.
Liquidity zones are where a lot of market orders sit in the chart. They are usually formed from the long / short position holders' "liquidity" levels. There are various ways to find them, most common one being drawing them on the latest high & low pivot points in the chart, which this indicator does.
2. Mark current timeframe market structure.
The market structure is the current flow of the market. It tells you if the market is trending right now, and the way it's trending towards. It's formed from swing higs, swing lows and support / resistance levels.
3. Wait for market to make a liquidity grab on the higher timeframe liquidity zone.
A liquidity grab is when the marked liquidity zones have a false breakout, which means that it gets broken for a brief amount of time, but then price falls back to it's previous position.
4. Buyside liquidity grabs are "Short" entries and Sellside liquidity grabs are "Long" entries by default.
5. Wait for the market-structure shift in the current timeframe for entry confirmation.
A market-structure shift happens when the current market structure changes, usually when a new swing high / swing low is formed. This indicator uses it as a confirmation for position entry as it gives an insight of the new trend of the market.
6. Place Take-Profit and Stop-Loss levels according to the risk ratio.
This indicator uses "Average True Range" when placing the stop-loss & take-profit levels. Average True Range calculates the average size of a candle and the indicator places the stop-loss level using ATR times the risk setting determined by the user, then places the take-profit level trying to keep a minimum of 1:1 risk-reward ratio.
This indicator follows these steps and inform you step by step by plotting them in your chart.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator is an all-in-one suit for the ICT's Turtle Soup concept. It's capable of plotting the strategy, giving signals, a backtesting dashboard and alerts feature. It's designed for simplyfing a rather complex strategy, helping you to execute it with clean signals. The backtesting dashboard allows you to see how your settings perform in the current ticker. You can also set up alerts to get informed when the strategy is executable for different tickers.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
MSS Swing Length -> The swing length when finding liquidity zones for market structure-shift detection.
Higher Timeframe -> The higher timeframe to look for liquidity grabs. This timeframe setting must be higher than the current chart's timeframe for the indicator to work.
Breakout Method -> If "Wick" is selected, a bar wick will be enough to confirm a market structure-shift. If "Close" is selected, the bar must close above / below the liquidity zone to confirm a market structure-shift.
Entry Method ->
"Classic" : Works as described on the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
"Adaptive" : When "Adaptive" is selected, the entry conditions may chance depending on the current performance of the indicator. It saves the entry conditions and the performance of the past entries, then for the new entries it checks if it predicted the liquidity grabs correctly with the current setup, if so, continues with the same logic. If not, it changes behaviour to reverse the entries from long / short to short / long.
2. TP / SL
TP / SL Method -> If "Fixed" is selected, you can adjust the TP / SL ratios from the settings below. If "Dynamic" is selected, the TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm.
Risk -> The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.

Engulfing with Fibonacci LevelsIndicator Explanation
The indicator identifies bullish and bearish engulfing patterns and plots Fibonacci levels based on these patterns. Here's a detailed explanation of the script:
1. Bullish Engulfing Pattern
A bullish engulfing pattern is identified when:
- The previous candle is bearish (`close < open `).
- The current candle is bullish (`close > open`).
- The low of the current candle is lower than the low of the previous candle (`low < low `).
- The current candle's close is higher than the previous candle's open (`close > open `).
When a bullish engulfing pattern is identified:
- Fibonacci levels are plotted from the low (0%) to the high (100%) of the bullish candle.
- A green dot is plotted below the bullish candle to indicate a buy signal.
2. Bearish Engulfing Pattern
A bearish engulfing pattern is identified when:
- The previous candle is bullish (`close > open `).
- The current candle is bearish (`close < open`).
- The high of the current candle is higher than the high of the previous candle (`high > high `).
- The current candle's close is lower than the previous candle's open (`close < open `).
When a bearish engulfing pattern is identified:
- Fibonacci levels are plotted from the high (0%) to the low (100%) of the bearish candle.
- A red dot is plotted above the bearish candle to indicate a sell signal.
3. Plotting Fibonacci Levels
For both bullish and bearish patterns, Fibonacci levels are plotted at:
- 0% (high for bullish, low for bearish)
- 50%
- 61.8%
- 79%
- 100% (low for bullish, high for bearish)
Smart Money Concept (SMC) Explanation
Bearish Signal
In the context of Smart Money Concepts (SMC), a bearish engulfing pattern can indicate:
- **Buy Side Liquidity Grab**: The high of the current bearish candle goes above the high of the previous bullish candle, potentially grabbing buy-side liquidity (stop losses of short positions or buy stops).
- **Break of Structure (BoS)**: The close of the bearish candle below the open of the previous bullish candle indicates a shift in market structure.
After identifying this bearish engulfing pattern, a smart money trader might:
1. Wait for the market to retrace 50% of the bearish candle.
2. Enter a sell trade around the 50% retracement level, anticipating a continuation of the downward move.
#### Bullish Signal
Similarly, a bullish engulfing pattern can indicate:
- **Sell Side Liquidity Grab**: The low of the current bullish candle goes below the low of the previous bearish candle, potentially grabbing sell-side liquidity (stop losses of long positions or sell stops).
- **Break of Structure (BoS)**: The close of the bullish candle above the open of the previous bearish candle indicates a shift in market structure.
After identifying this bullish engulfing pattern, a smart money trader might:
1. Wait for the market to retrace 50% of the bullish candle.
2. Enter a buy trade around the 50% retracement level, anticipating a continuation of the upward move.
The indicator helps traders identify key engulfing patterns that align with smart money concepts of liquidity grabs and breaks of structure. By plotting Fibonacci levels, it visually aids traders in waiting for optimal retracement levels (50%) to enter trades in the direction of the anticipated move. This approach leverages the idea that significant market participants often seek liquidity and cause structural shifts, providing entry opportunities for informed traders.
Cumulative Volume Delta (MTF)Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) Indicator
The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator is a powerful analytical tool used to understand the behavior and dynamics of market participants through volume analysis. It tracks the net difference between buying and selling pressure, providing insights into market trends and potential reversals. Here's a detailed description of this indicator and its components:
The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator calculates the cumulative net difference between buying and selling volume over a specified period. By analyzing this net difference, traders can gain insights into the underlying strength or weakness of a price movement, helping to identify trends, reversals, and potential breakout points.
Key Components:
Bull & Bear Power Calculation:
Bull Power: Represents the strength of buyers in the market. It is calculated based on the relationship between the current and previous price bars. A higher Bull Power indicates stronger buying pressure.
Bear Power: Represents the strength of sellers in the market. It is also calculated based on the relationship between the current and previous price bars. A higher Bear Power indicates stronger selling pressure.
Bull & Bear Volume Calculation:
Bull Volume: The volume attributed to buying pressure. It is calculated by taking the proportion of Bull Power relative to the total of Bull Power and Bear Power, multiplied by the total volume.
Bear Volume: The volume attributed to selling pressure. It is calculated similarly to Bull Volume but using Bear Power.
Delta Calculation:
Delta: The net difference between Bull Volume and Bear Volume for each bar. A positive Delta indicates more buying pressure, while a negative Delta indicates more selling pressure.
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD):
CVD: The running total of the Delta values over time. It accumulates the net buying and selling pressure to provide a visual representation of the market's cumulative sentiment.
Moving Average of CVD (CVD MA):
CVD MA: A simple moving average of the CVD, used to smooth out fluctuations and help identify the overall trend. It provides a baseline to compare the current CVD value against, highlighting divergences or convergences.
Multi-Timeframe Functionality:
The enhanced version of the CVD indicator includes multi-timeframe (MTF) capabilities, allowing users to select and analyze data from different timeframes. This feature enhances the versatility of the indicator by providing a broader perspective on market dynamics across various time intervals.
Practical Applications:
Trend Identification: By tracking the CVD and its moving average, traders can identify the prevailing trend. An upward-sloping CVD indicates sustained buying pressure, while a downward-sloping CVD indicates sustained selling pressure.
Divergences: Divergences between the CVD and price can signal potential reversals. For example, if the price is making new highs but the CVD is not, it may indicate weakening buying pressure and a potential reversal.
Breakout Confirmation: Significant changes in the CVD can confirm breakouts. A sharp increase in the CVD during a price breakout indicates strong buying support, adding confidence to the breakout.
Support and Resistance Levels: The CVD can help identify significant support and resistance levels based on changes in volume dynamics. For instance, a notable increase in buying volume at a support level can reinforce its strength.
Table Volume MultiframeDescription
The Table Volume Multiframe indicator displays volume information across multiple timeframes in a convenient table format. Users can customize the table's position, size, and the specific timeframes to be displayed. This indicator helps traders analyze volume trends and divergences across different timeframes, providing a comprehensive view of market activity. The table shows the total volume, buy percentage, sell percentage, and a countdown timer for the next bar close for each selected timeframe. The countdown function updates consistently to provide real-time information.
Features
- Customizable table position and size
- Selectable timeframes
- Displays volume, buy percentage, sell percentage
- Countdown timer for next bar close
- Real-time updates
Average price in candlePlots the average price a security had within a candle.
So, for example: If you have a 15m candle, and price stayed near the candle's high for 10 out of the 15 minutes, you would expect the average price top be near the candle's high as well. And that's actually how it is.
(Blue 10:30 candle in the screenshot.)
I think this "average in-candle price" could be a useful thing to know. You can't gather this information from the normal chart (as you would need to go to a lower timeframe). Plus this plot can be smoother than plots of, say, closing price or hl2.
The calculation happens in a lower timeframe which is selected automatically. There is a precision selector which allows you to influence this. By default, at least 10 values are sampled for each candle.
If you have TradingView Premium, the script is able to use second-based intervals to look inside 1m candles. (Tick the corresponding checkbox to enable this.)
How it works: I collect timestamps and hl2 values from the lower timeframe. (I figure hl2 is the best choice here because a close is so arbitrary. If we don't have further information, our guess is the average is simply exactly in the middle of the candle's range.)
Then I throw the last close and current close (from the CHART timeframe) into the mix and calculate an average of the prices we collected weighted by the duration that price was in effect.
tl;dr; It's just math baby
