Gap Detector [MS]This indicator helps traders identify and visualize price gaps in market data. When price movements create gaps between trading sessions or periods, the script highlights these areas with colored clouds and markers.
Key Features:
Automatically detects price gaps based on a customizable gap percentage threshold
Visualizes gaps using color-coded clouds (green when price moves upward, red for downward price action)
Places small triangle markers at gap locations for easy identification of gaps, and if many happen close together
Shows gray clouds when price is within the last gap
Use it For:
Watching for gap-fills
Gap support/resistance levels
Trading gap breakouts
...and more
How it Works:
The script compares each bar's opening price with the previous bar's closing price. A gap is identified when the opening price is significantly different from the previous close (beyond the user-defined gap percentage). The gap area is then marked with a colored cloud:
Green clouds: Show gaps where price jumped higher
Red clouds: Show gaps where price dropped lower
Gray clouds: Indicate price action within the gap
Settings:
Gap %: Controls the minimum price difference required to identify a gap (default 0.01 or 1%)
This indicator can help traders:
Identify potential support/resistance levels at gap areas
Monitor gap-filling scenarios
Spot significant price movements between trading sessions
The script is designed to work across all timeframes and markets.

Custom Candlestick Pattern IndicatorCustom Candlestick Pattern Indicator - Buy Signal Based on Green Candles Breaking Previous Lows
Overview:
This custom candlestick pattern indicator is designed to highlight potential buy opportunities based on a simple yet powerful candlestick pattern. The indicator identifies green candles that break below the low of the previous candle. This combination may signal a potential market reversal or a bullish continuation after a pullback, depending on the market context. Traders can use this indicator to detect areas where prices may be bouncing from recent lows, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
Pattern Explanation:
The strategy underlying this indicator is a two-part condition that must be met before a buy signal is generated:
Green Candle: A green candle forms when the closing price of the current candle is higher than its opening price. This visually represents bullish momentum as buyers have taken control, closing the price higher than where it opened.
Breaking the Previous Low: The low of the current candle must be lower than the low of the previous candle. This suggests that, despite initial bearish pressure during the candle formation (which drove the price below the previous candle's low), buyers stepped in to push the price higher by the candle’s close. This pattern can signify a potential reversal or bullish continuation, as it demonstrates that buyers are overcoming initial selling pressure.
When the Pattern Occurs:
This pattern is particularly interesting to traders who look for potential reversal signals after a brief decline in price.
It may also work well in markets where pullbacks are common, as this pattern could mark the end of a retracement and the resumption of the bullish trend.
How the Indicator Works:
Green Candle: The indicator first identifies a green candle, where the close of the candle is greater than its open (close > open). This signals that the current period closed higher than it opened, which is generally a bullish sign.
Breaking Previous Low: The indicator checks if the current candle's low is below the low of the previous candle (low < low ). If this condition is met, it means the price dropped below the previous candle's low but was still able to close higher (green candle), signaling a potential reversal or buying opportunity.
Buy Signal: If both conditions are true (green candle + breaking previous low), the indicator plots a buy signal below the candle in the form of an upward-facing triangle labeled "Buy" in green. This serves as a visual cue for traders to consider entering a buy position.
Optional Previous Low Plot: For added reference, the indicator plots the previous candle's low as a red step-line on the chart. This helps traders visualize when the price has dipped below the prior candle's low, making it easier to spot instances where the pattern is forming.
How to Use:
This indicator can be used across multiple timeframes, whether you’re trading short-term intraday patterns or longer-term swing trades.
It works well in markets that experience pullbacks or minor retracements, as the pattern it identifies suggests a rejection of lower prices followed by a push higher.
Traders can combine this indicator with other technical analysis tools (such as moving averages, support/resistance levels, or momentum oscillators) to strengthen the buy signals and add more context to the trading decision.
Example Scenarios:
Reversal Signal: Suppose a market has been in a minor downtrend, and suddenly a green candle forms after a low that breaks the previous day’s low. This indicator would generate a buy signal, suggesting the downtrend may be losing strength and that buyers are taking control. This could be an early indication of a reversal.
Bullish Continuation After Pullback: Imagine a market in a steady uptrend experiences a temporary pullback. The price breaks the previous candle’s low, but the current candle closes higher (green candle). This buy signal could indicate that the pullback is over, and the uptrend is likely to continue.
Advantages:
Simplicity: This indicator relies on basic price action (green candles and lows) without requiring complicated indicators or oscillators, making it easy to understand and use.
Visual Alerts: The plotted buy signals and previous lows provide a clear, visual representation on the chart, simplifying decision-making for traders.
Versatility: It can be applied across different timeframes and asset classes (stocks, forex, crypto, etc.), making it a versatile tool for all kinds of traders.
Limitations:
As with any single indicator or pattern, this should not be used in isolation. It is important to incorporate broader market context, support/resistance levels, and other forms of analysis to avoid false signals.
The pattern tends to be more effective when there’s sufficient market liquidity and may perform better in trending or volatile markets compared to sideways or flat markets.
Leonid's Bitcoin Full Cycle Simple SMA IndicatorThis is a straight-forward and customizable indicator to track Bitcoin cycles, specifically used for helping investors understand where to buy and sell. This is done by using a two year SMA period as the base calculation. With that calculation you create lower and upper bounds for bull market peaks and bear market bottoms.
The novel idea here is that you can customize the SMA "strength" for both the upper and lower bounds as alpha decays over time and price get's less volatile with adoption increasing. The multiples are customizable for both the upper and lower bounds along with a mid-line that will adjust based on the settings input.
Indicators don't always have to rely on crazy math or outlandish ideas to be useful, sometimes even the simplest of inputs can give investors (especially those that are new) a great base case for their strategy. Something being simple does not diminish the idea or strength behind the data.
How to use this indicator: This script must be used on INDEX:BTCUSD (Bitcoin All-Time History Index) with the y-axis being set to Logarithmic scale.
Details & how to interpret: The price is colored green when Bitcoin enters a "value zone" meaning it is heavily oversold and likely near a bottom for the bear market cycle. The price is colored red when Bitcoin enters an "overbought zone" meaning it is heavily overbought and is likely near a top for the bull market cycle.
Along with the upper and lower bound I have plotted a mid-line (in orange) to establish a neutral zone which helps depict what phase of the cycle we're in (under mid-line = bearish/accumulation phase, over mid-line = bullish/distribution phase).
The inputs for the upper and lower bound are customizable and will need to be adjusted over time as alpha decay will occur as time goes on. Currently the numbers are as follows:
0.2 for the lower bound
4.675 for the upper bound
Both inputs can be modified depending on your risk tolerance. Mathematically it is safe to assume these numbers will decrease as time goes on and volatility during cycle peaks & troughs is reduced.
I've also plotted an upper bound "heat zone" which is shaded in green, this area is great for signaling when you should be preparing to begin taking profits. It takes the upper bound and subtracts the lower bound to derive the band.
All the colors are customizable and this indicator is best used on a line chart but can be customized to use on a bar chart/candlestick as well.
Simple Moving Averages are a very basic indicator but are often extremely powerful because the majority of traders/investors are looking at such levels which creates a psychological/herd effect. Another good example is the law of round numbers.
Regardless this script can be adapted with EMAs or additional standard deviations if necessary. If you have any questions or concerns please don't hesitate to message me.
SMT Divergences [OutOfOptions]Smart Money Technique (SMT) Divergence is designed to identify discrepancies between correlated assets within the same timeframe. It occurs when two related assets exhibit opposing signals, such as one forming a higher low while the other forms a lower low. This technique is particularly useful for anticipating market shifts or reversals before they become evident through other Premium Discount (PD) Arrays.
This indicator works by identifying the highs and lows that have formed for an asset on the current chart and the correlated symbol defined in the settings. Once a pivot on either asset is formed, it checks if the pivot has taken liquidity as identified by the previous pivot in the same direction (i.e., a new high taking out a previous high). If this is the case and the corresponding asset has not taken a similar pivot, the condition is determined to be a potential valid divergence. The indicator will then filter out SMTs formed by adjacent candles, requiring at least one candle difference between the candles forming the SMT.
If the “Candle Direction Validation” setting is enabled, the indicator will further check both assets to ensure that for bullish SMTs, the last high on both assets was formed by down candle, and for bearish SMTs, the low was formed by an up candle. This check can often eliminate low-probability SMTs that are frequently broken.
The referenced chart shows divergence between Nasdaq (NQ) and S&P 500 (ES) futures, which are normally closely correlated assets that move in the same direction. The lines shown represent bullish and bearish divergences between the two when they are formed. As you can see from the chart, SMT Divergences may not always indicate a reversal, or a reversal might be just a short-term retrace. Therefore, SMT Divergences should not be used independently. However, in conjunction with other PD arrays, they can provide strong confirmation of a change in market direction.
Configurability:
Pivot strength - Indicates how many bars to the left/right of a high for pivot to be considered, recommended to keep at 1 for maximum detection speed
Candle Direction Validation - Additional SMT validation to filter out weak/low-probability SMTs be examining candle direction
Line Styling for Bullish/Bearish SMTs - Ability to customize line style, color & width for bullish/bearish SMTs
Label Control - Whether or not to show SMT label and if shown what font size & color should be used
What makes this indicator different:
Unlike other SMT indicators, this indicators has additional built-in controls to remove low-probability SMTs
Bullseye NYSE 1st5mThis script, "BullseyeNYSE1st5m," is a TradingView indicator designed to highlight the high and low price levels during the first 5 minutes of the NYSE trading session. It works as follows:
1. **Identify NYSE Trading Hours**: The script identifies bars that fall within NYSE trading hours, specifically focusing on the first five minutes after the market opens.
2. **Calculate First 5-Minute High and Low**: During the first five minutes of the trading day, the script captures and updates the high and low prices, storing these values for the remainder of the session.
3. **Plot High and Low Levels**: The high and low values from the first five minutes are plotted as lines on the chart in yellow. This helps traders quickly identify the initial range set by the market.
4. **Fill the Area Between High and Low**: The area between the high and low levels is filled with a translucent yellow color to visually emphasize the first five-minute range.
5. **Alerts for Breakouts**: Alerts are set to notify the user when the price closes above or below the first five-minute range. This helps traders stay informed of potential breakout opportunities beyond this key opening range.
This indicator is useful for day traders looking to leverage the first few minutes of NYSE trading to identify early support and resistance levels and to spot breakout opportunities.
Neutral Price Action Zones with Horizontal LinesIf the upper shadow of the red candle is longer than its lower shadow and the upper shadow of the green candle is longer than its lower shadow, it indicates that the upper and lower wicks of the red and green candles are equal. In this case, it means that the price does not show a clear trend in a specific direction, and the price movement is neutral. This situation usually suggests market uncertainty or that the price is moving within a horizontal range.
Red and Green Candle Check: The status of the candles is determined.
Shadow Calculations: The upper and lower shadows of the red and green candles are calculated.
Horizontal Range Check: The horizontal range condition is checked for the red and green candles.
Background Color: If the condition is met, the background is marked in gray.
Horizontal Line: When the horizontal range condition is met, a horizontal line is drawn.
Bullseye PDHL Bullseye PDHL Indicator
The Bullseye PDHL indicator is designed for traders who want to visually identify key price levels from the previous trading day, including the high, low, and significant Fibonacci retracement levels. This indicator helps traders understand potential support and resistance zones, which can be useful for planning entries and exits.
Key Features:
Previous Day’s High and Low:
Plots the previous day’s high and low as solid lines on the chart to easily identify important levels from the prior session.
These levels serve as critical support and resistance markers, which are often respected by the market.
Fibonacci Retracement Levels:
Plots three Fibonacci retracement levels (38.2%, 50%, and 61.8%) between the previous day’s high and low.
These levels are key reference points for assessing potential pullbacks or retracements during the current trading day.
Visual Representation:
The previous day’s high and low are plotted in cyan for easy differentiation.
The Fibonacci retracement levels (30%, 50%, 60%) are plotted in white, providing a clear visual reference for traders.
This indicator can help traders identify important reaction zones and areas where price might reverse or consolidate, making it a valuable addition for technical analysis.
Pivot Bollinger BandThis is a special kind of Bollinger Bands indicator that adapts to the market's pivot points. Instead of using regular price data, it first finds important swing highs and lows in the market (called pivot points). It then uses these pivot points to create a center line, which is like a moving average of where the market is pivoting.
Around this center line, it draws the classic Bollinger Bands - an upper and lower band that show where prices might find resistance or support. The distance between these bands changes based on market volatility, just like regular Bollinger Bands. You can adjust how sensitive it is to pivot points and how wide the bands should be.
By using pivot point based Bollinger Bands, we expect band breakout can be captured more effectively.
Z-Scored Pi Cycle Top & BottomThis indicator calculates the Z-score of the Pi Cycle Top & Bottom indicator to identify potential market cycle tops and bottoms. It uses the relationship between two EMAs (111 and 350) to assess the price action and applies a Z-score to determine how far the current value deviates from the mean, providing a normalized measure of overbought and oversold conditions.
Summary:
The Z-Scored Pi Cycle Top & Bottom indicator is designed to help traders identify significant market cycle extremes by applying a Z-score to the Pi Cycle Top & Bottom ratio (EMA 111/EMA 350). This normalized score ranges between -2.99 and 2.99, with values near the extremes suggesting potential market tops or bottoms. Green shading indicates a positive Z-score (potential top), while red shading indicates a negative Z-score (potential bottom).
Use this indicator to gauge where the market stands relative to historical tops and bottoms, allowing for more informed decision-making in both bull and bear markets. The indicator also displays the absolute value of the Z-score in the label, helping traders easily visualize how far the current market is from historical extremes.
**I did not come up with or create this indicator I have just z scored it and made it easier for myself to use.***
CPR by NKDCentral Pivot Range (CPR) Trading Strategy:
The Central Pivot Range (CPR) is a widely-used tool in technical analysis, helping traders pinpoint potential support and resistance levels in the market. By using the CPR effectively, traders can better gauge market trends and determine favorable entry and exit points. This guide explores how the CPR works, outlines its calculation, and describes how traders can enhance their strategies using an extended 10-line version of CPR.
What Really Central Pivot Range (CPR) is?
At its core, the CPR consists of three key lines:
Pivot Point (PP) – The central line, calculated as the average of the previous day’s high, low, and closing prices.
Upper Range (R1) – Positioned above the Pivot Point, acting as a potential ceiling where price may face resistance.
Lower Range (S1) – Found below the Pivot Point, serving as a potential floor where price might find support.
Advanced traders often expand on the traditional three-line CPR by adding extra levels above and below the pivot, creating up to a 10-line system. This extended CPR allows for a more nuanced understanding of the market and helps identify more detailed trading opportunities.
Applying CPR for Trading Success
1. How CPR is Calculation
The CPR relies on the previous day's high (H), low (L), and close (C) prices to create its structure:
Pivot Point (PP) = (H + L + C) / 3
First Resistance (R1) = (2 * PP) - L
First Support (S1) = (2 * PP) - H
Additional resistance levels (R2, R3) and support levels (S2, S3) are calculated by adding or subtracting multiples of the previous day’s price range (H - L) from the Pivot Point.
2. Recognizing the Market Trend
To effectively trade using CPR, it’s essential to first determine whether the market is trending up (bullish) or down (bearish). In an upward-trending market, traders focus on buying at support levels, while in a downward market, they look to sell near resistance.
3. Finding Ideal Entry Points
Traders often look to enter trades when price approaches key levels within the CPR range. Support levels (S1, S2) offer buying opportunities, while resistance levels (R1, R2) provide selling opportunities. These points are considered potential reversal zones, where price may bounce or reverse direction.
4. Managing Risk with Stop-Loss Orders
Proper risk management is crucial in any trading strategy. A stop-loss should be set slightly beyond the support level for buy positions and above the resistance level for sell positions, ensuring that losses are contained if the market moves against the trader’s position.
5. Determining Profit Targets
Profit targets are typically set based on the distance between entry points and the next support or resistance level. Many traders apply a risk-reward ratio, aiming for larger potential profits compared to the potential losses. However, if the next resistance and support level is far then middle levels are used for targets (i.e. 50% of R1 and R2)
6. Confirmation Through Other Indicators
While CPR provides strong support and resistance levels, traders often use additional indicators to confirm potential trade setups. Indicators such as moving averages can
help validate the signals provided by the CPR.
7. Monitoring Price Action At CPR Levels
Constantly monitoring price movement near CPR levels is essential. If the price fails to break through a resistance level (R1) or holds firm at support (S1), it can offer cues on when to exit or adjust a trade. However, a strong price break past these levels often signals a continued trend.
8. Trading Breakouts with CPR
When the price breaks above resistance or below support with strong momentum, it may signal a potential breakout. Traders can capitalize on these movements by entering positions in the direction of the breakout, ideally confirmed by volume or other technical indicators.
9. Adapting to Changing Market Conditions
CPR should be used in the context of broader market influences, such as economic reports, news events, or geopolitical shifts. These factors can dramatically affect market direction and how price reacts to CPR levels, making it important to stay informed about external market conditions.
10. Practice and Backtesting for Improvements
Like any trading tool, the CPR requires practice. Traders are encouraged to backtest their strategies on historical price data to get a better sense of how CPR works in different market environments. Continuous analysis and practice help improve decision-making and strategy refinement.
The Advantages of Using a 10-Line CPR System
An extended 10-line CPR system—comprising up to five resistance and five support levels—provides more granular control and insight into market movements. This expanded view helps traders better gauge trends and identify more opportunities for entry and exit. Key benefits include:
R2, S2 Levels: These act as secondary resistance or support zones, giving traders additional opportunities to refine their trade entries and exits.
R3, S3 Levels: Provide an even wider range for identifying reversals or trend continuations in more volatile markets.
Flexibility: The broader range of levels allows traders to adapt to changing market conditions and make more precise decisions based on market momentum.
So in Essential:
The Central Pivot Range is a valuable tool for traders looking to identify critical price levels in the market. By providing a clear framework for identifying potential support and resistance zones, it helps traders make informed decisions about entering and exiting trades. However, it’s important to combine CPR with sound risk management and additional confirmation through other technical indicators for the best results.
Although no trading tool guarantees success, the CPR, when used effectively and combined with practice, can significantly enhance a trader’s ability to navigate market fluctuations.
EMA Distance & Sector InfoThis indicator provides insights into price trends relative to Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and displays sector/industry information about the asset. Below is a detailed explanation of its purpose and what it is designed to achieve:
Purpose of the Code
The indicator offers two key functionalities:
1. Analyzing Price Distance from Multiple EMAs:
• Helps traders understand how far the current price is from key EMAs, expressed as a percentage.
• Calculates average percentage distances over a specified period (default: 63 days) to spot consistent trends or mean reversion opportunities.
• Useful for trend-following strategies, allowing the trader to see when the price is above or below important EMAs (e.g., 9, 21, 50, 100, and 150-period EMAs).
2. Displaying Asset Sector and Industry Information:
• Displays the sector and industry of the asset being analyzed (e.g., Technology, Consumer Goods).
• Provides additional context when evaluating performance across a specific sector or comparing an asset to its peers.
Who Would Use This Indicator?
This indicator is particularly helpful for:
1. Swing Traders and Positional Traders:
• They can use it to track whether the price is trading significantly above or below critical EMAs, which often signals overbought/oversold conditions or trend strength.
• The average percentage distances help to identify momentum shifts or pullback opportunities.
2. Sector/Industry-Focused Investors:
• Understanding an asset’s sector and industry helps investors gauge how the asset fits into the broader market context.
• This is valuable for sector rotation strategies, where investors shift funds between sectors based on performance trends.
How It Helps in Trading Decisions
1. Entry and Exit Points:
• If the price is far above an EMA (e.g., 21 EMA), it might indicate an overbought condition or a strong trend, while a negative percentage could signal a pullback or reversal opportunity.
• The average percentage distances smooth the fluctuations and reveal longer-term trends.
2. Contextual Information:
• Knowing the sector and industry is useful when analyzing trends. For example, if Technology stocks are doing well, and this asset belongs to that sector, it could indicate sector-wide momentum.
Summary of the Indicator’s Purpose
This code provides:
• EMA trend monitoring: Visualizes the price position relative to multiple EMAs and averages those distances for smoother insights.
• Sector and industry information: Adds valuable context for asset performance analysis.
• Decision-making support: Helps traders identify overbought/oversold levels and assess the asset within the broader market landscape.
In essence, this indicator is a multi-purpose tool that combines technical analysis (through EMA distances) with fundamental context (via sector/industry info), making it valuable for traders and investors aiming to time entries/exits or understand market behavior better.
Financial Crisis Predictor - Doomsday ClockThe **Financial Crisis Predictor - Doomsday Clock** is a composite indicator that evaluates multiple market conditions to determine financial risk levels. It combines four key metrics: market volatility (via VIX), yield curve spread, stock market momentum, and credit risk (via high-yield spread). Each metric contributes to a weighted "risk score," scaled between 0 and 100, which helps gauge the probability of a financial crisis. Here's a breakdown of how it works:
### 1. **Market Volatility (VIX)**
- **How it's measured:**
- Uses the VIX index, which represents expected market volatility.
- Applies two exponential moving averages (EMAs) to smooth out the data—one fast and one slow.
- Triggers a signal if the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA and VIX exceeds a defined threshold (default is 30).
- **Weighting:**
- Contributes up to 35% of the total risk score when active.
### 2. **Yield Curve Spread**
- **How it's measured:**
- Takes the difference between the yields of 10-year and 2-year U.S. Treasury bonds (inversion indicates recession risk).
- If the spread drops below a certain threshold (default is 0.2), it signals a potential recession.
- **Weighting:**
- Contributes up to 25% of the risk score.
### 3. **Stock Market Momentum**
- **How it's measured:**
- Analyzes the S&P 500 (SPY) using a 20-day EMA for price momentum.
- Checks for a cross under the 20-day EMA and if the 5-day rate of change (ROC) is less than -2.
- This combination signals bearish market momentum.
- **Weighting:**
- Contributes up to 20% of the risk score.
### 4. **Credit Risk (High Yield Spread)**
- **How it's measured:**
- Assesses high-yield corporate bond spreads using EMAs, similar to the VIX logic.
- A crossover of the fast EMA above the slow EMA combined with spreads exceeding a defined threshold (default is 5.0) indicates increased credit risk.
- **Weighting:**
- Contributes up to 20% of the total risk score.
### 5. **Risk Score Calculation**
- The final **risk score** ranges from 0 to 100 and is calculated using the weighted sum of the four indicators.
- The score is smoothed to minimize false signals and maintain stability.
### 6. **Risk Zones**
- **Extreme Risk:** If the risk score is ≥ 75, indicating a severe crisis warning.
- **High Risk:** If the risk score is between 15 and 75, signaling heightened risk.
- **Moderate Risk:** If the risk score is between 10 and 15, representing potential concerns.
- **Low Risk:** If the risk score is < 10, suggesting stable conditions.
### 7. **Visual & Alerts**
- The indicator plots the risk score on a chart with color-coded backgrounds to indicate risk levels: green (low), yellow (moderate), orange (high), and red (extreme).
- Alert conditions are set for each risk zone, notifying users when the risk level transitions into a higher zone.
This indicator aims to quickly detect potential financial crises by aggregating signals from key market factors, making it a versatile tool for traders, analysts, and risk managers.
Similar Price ActionDescription:
The indicator tries to find an area of N candles in history that has the most similar price action to the latest N candles. The maximum search distance is limited to 5000 candles. It works by calculating a coefficient for each candle and comparing it with the coefficient of the latest candle, thus searching for two closest values. The indicator highlights the latest N candles, as well as the most similar area found in the past, and also tries to predict future price based on the latest price and price directly after the most similar area that was found in the past.
Inputs:
- Length -> the area we are searching for is comprised of this many candles
- Lookback -> maximum distance in which a similar area can be found
- Function -> the function used to compare latest and past prices
Notes:
- The indicator is intended to work on smaller timeframes where the overall price difference is not very high, but can be used on any
RSI with Dynamic ColorsThe "RSI with Dynamic Colors" is a custom indicator built on top of the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI), which helps traders identify overbought or oversold market conditions. This enhanced version includes added functionality like dynamic colors, highlighting specific conditions, and more customization options. Here's a breakdown of how this indicator works:
Indicator Components:
Relative Strength Index (RSI) Calculation:
The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It oscillates between 0 and 100, helping traders determine if an asset is overbought or oversold.
In this version, the RSI is calculated with a configurable lookback period (default is 14) and applies smoothing to both upward and downward price changes using the Relative Moving Average (RMA).
Dynamic Coloring:
The indicator dynamically changes the color of the RSI line based on its value. Specific thresholds include:
Blue: When the RSI is at or above an extreme overbought level (≥ 85).
Red: When the RSI is in the overbought zone (≥ 70 but < 85).
Yellow: When the RSI is at or below the extreme oversold level (≤ 15).
Green: When the RSI is in the oversold zone (≤ 30 but > 15).
White: When the RSI is between the oversold and overbought zones.
Moving Average Options (MA):
The indicator allows the user to plot an optional moving average of the RSI for additional trend confirmation. Users can select from various types of moving averages, including Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), and others.
Bollinger Bands can be optionally applied around the RSI to visualize volatility.
Overbought and Oversold Highlights:
It provides visual highlights (green for overbought and red for oversold) in the background of the RSI plot, making it easier to identify potential reversal zones.
Divergence Detection (Optional):
The indicator can optionally display regular bullish or bearish divergence, which can signal potential trend reversals. Divergence occurs when price moves in the opposite direction of the RSI.
Bullish divergence is indicated when the price makes lower lows while the RSI makes higher lows.
Bearish divergence is shown when the price makes higher highs while the RSI makes lower highs.
Alerts:
Users can set up alerts for bullish or bearish divergence, making it easier to get notified when key conditions occur in the market.
Use Case:
This custom RSI indicator is designed for traders who want to combine the classic RSI functionality with enhanced visual aids, such as color coding for different RSI zones, customizable moving averages, and Bollinger Bands. It is particularly useful for identifying potential market tops and bottoms by highlighting overbought/oversold conditions and divergence signals.
In summary, this indicator not only retains the traditional RSI's power but also adds new layers of insight through color, moving averages, and divergence detection, helping traders make better-informed decisions.
Master Candle Breakout V1 Master Candle Breakout V1 - Indicator Description
The Master Candle Breakout V1 indicator is a powerful price action-based tool designed to help traders identify and capitalize on breakout opportunities from consolidation phases. This indicator is particularly useful for identifying master candles, which are large candles that encompass the range of subsequent candles, creating a key level of support or resistance. Once the price breaks above or below the range of the master candle, the indicator provides clear buy or sell signals, allowing traders to ride the momentum of the breakout.
Key Features:
Master Candle Detection: The indicator identifies master candles based on a user-defined period, marking them on the chart as critical breakout points.
Buy and Sell Signals: When the price breaks above the master candle's high, a buy signal is plotted. Similarly, when the price breaks below the master candle's low, a sell signal is generated. These signals are displayed on the chart with customizable shapes (diamonds, arrows, circles, crosses) and colors for easy visualization.
Stop-Loss Level Display: For risk management, the indicator calculates and plots a stop-loss level based on user-defined ticks above or below the master candle's high or low. The stop-loss value is shown as a label next to the signal, helping traders manage risk effectively.
Customizable Colors and Shapes: Users can fully customize the appearance of the signals, including the color of the buy/sell diamonds, the stop-loss label text color, and the type of shape used for the signals.
Versatile Application: The Master Candle Breakout V1 can be applied to any timeframe and market, from forex and stocks to commodities and cryptocurrencies, making it a highly versatile tool for traders of all types.
How to Use:
Master Candle Period: Define how many candles should follow the master candle for confirmation.
Stop Loss Ticks: Set the number of ticks above or below the master candle to define your stop-loss level.
Entry Signals: Once the price closes outside the high or low of the master candle, enter the trade accordingly (buy on breakouts above the high, sell on breakouts below the low).
Risk Management: Use the stop-loss level provided by the indicator to minimize losses and protect your capital.
This indicator is perfect for traders who prefer a simple, price-action-based strategy and want to avoid the clutter of traditional indicators. By focusing on the core principle of breakouts, Master Candle Breakout V1 helps traders quickly identify consolidation zones and potential breakout trades.
Fibonacci BandsDescription
This indicator dynamically calculates Fibonacci retracement levels based on the highest high and lowest low over a specified lookback period. The key Fibonacci levels (0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, and 0.786) are plotted on the chart, with shaded areas between these levels for visual guidance.
How it works
The script computes the highest high (hh) and the lowest low (ll) over the defined length.
It calculates the price range (delta) as the difference between the highest high and the lowest low.
Fibonacci levels are then determined using the formula: ℎℎ − (delta × Fibonacci ratio)
Each Fibonacci level is then plotted as a line with a specific color.
Key Features
Customizable Length: Users can adjust the lookback period to suit their trading strategy.
Multiple Fibonacci Levels: Includes common Fibonacci retracement levels, providing traders with a comprehensive view of potential support and resistance areas.
Visual Fillings: The script includes customizable shading between levels, which helps traders quickly identify key zones (like the "Golden Zone" between 0.5 and 0.618).
Unique Points
Fibonacci Focus: This script is specifically designed around Fibonacci retracement levels, which are popular among technical traders for identifying potential reversal points.
Dynamic Range Calculation: The use of the highest high and lowest low within a user-defined period offers a dynamic approach to adapting to changing market conditions.
How to use it
Adjust the length parameter (default is 60) to determine how many bars back the indicator will calculate the highest high and lowest low. A longer length may provide a broader perspective of price action, while a shorter length may react more quickly to recent price changes.
Observe the plotted Fibonacci levels: 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, and 0.786. These levels often act as potential support and resistance points. Pay attention to how price interacts with these levels.
When the price approaches a Fibonacci level, consider it a potential reversal point. The filled areas between the Fibonacci levels indicate zones where price might consolidate or reverse. The "Golden Zone" (between 0.5 and 0.618) is particularly significant; many traders watch this area closely for potential entry points in an uptrend or exit points in a downtrend.
G-Channel with EMA StrategyThe G-Channel is a custom channel with an upper (a), lower (b), and average (avg) line. These lines are dynamically calculated based on the current and previous closing prices, using the length input (default 100) to smooth the values:
Upper Line (a): This is the maximum value of the current price or the previous upper value, adjusted by the difference between the upper and lower lines divided by the length.
Lower Line (b): This is the minimum value of the current price or the previous lower value, similarly adjusted by the difference between the upper and lower lines.
The average line (avg) is simply the midpoint between the upper and lower lines. The G-Channel signals trend direction:
Bullish Condition: The system looks for the condition when the price crosses over the lower line (b), indicating a potential upward trend.
Bearish Condition: When the price crosses under the upper line (a), it signals a potential downward trend.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA)
The strategy also incorporates an EMA with a default length of 200. The EMA serves as a trend filter to determine whether the market is trending upward or downward:
Price below EMA: Indicates a bearish trend.
Price above EMA: Indicates a bullish trend.
Buy/Sell Conditions
The strategy generates buy or sell signals based on the interaction between the G-Channel signals and the price relative to the EMA:
Buy Signal: The strategy triggers a buy when:
A bullish condition (recent crossover of price over the lower G-Channel line) is detected.
The price is below the EMA, indicating that despite the recent bullish signal, the market might still be undervalued or in a temporary downturn.
Sell Signal: The strategy triggers a sell when:
A bearish condition (recent crossunder of price below the upper G-Channel line) is detected.
The price is above the EMA, suggesting that the market might be overextended and poised for a downturn.
Visualization
The strategy plots:
The upper, lower, and average lines of the G-Channel, with the average line colored based on bullish (green) or bearish (red) conditions.
The EMA (orange) line to provide context on the general trend direction.
Markers for Buy and Sell signals to visually indicate the strategy's entry points.
Strategy Execution
When a buy or sell signal is detected:
Buy Entry: If the bullish condition and price < EMA condition are met, a long (buy) position is opened.
Sell Entry: If the bearish condition and price > EMA condition are met, a short (sell) position is opened.
Purpose
This strategy aims to catch price reversals at critical points (when the price moves through the G-Channel) while filtering trades using the EMA to avoid entering during unfavorable market trends.
RSI/MFI Divergence Finder [idahodev]Monitoring RSI (Relative Strength Index) and MFI (Money Flow Index) divergences on a stock or index chart offers several benefits to traders and analysts. Let's break down the advantages:
Comprehensive Market View: Combining both indicators provides a more complete picture of market conditions, as they measure different aspects of price movement. RSI focuses on recent gains/losses relative to price change, while MFI incorporates volume data to assess money flow in and out of a security.
Enhanced Signal Accuracy: When divergences occur simultaneously in both RSI and MFI, it may be considered a stronger signal than if only one indicator showed divergence. This can potentially lead to more reliable trading decisions.
Identification of False Breakouts: Divergences between these indicators and price action can help identify false breakouts or misleading price movements that are not supported by underlying market strength or volume.
More Nuanced Market Understanding: By examining divergent behavior between money flow (MFI) and momentum (RSI), traders gain a more detailed comprehension of the interplay between these factors in shaping market trends.
Early Warning Signs: These divergences can act as early warning signs for potential trend reversals or changes in market sentiment, allowing traders to adjust their strategies proactively.
It's important to note that RSI/MFI divergences should be used as part of a broader trading strategy rather than solely relying on them for buy/sell signals. They can serve as valuable tools for confirming trends, identifying potential turning points, or warning against overbought/oversold conditions.
When using these indicators together, traders must be cautious of false signals, especially in choppy markets or during periods of high volatility. It's crucial to combine this analysis with other technical and fundamental factors before making trading decisions.
In summary, monitoring RSI/MFI divergences may offer a way to gain insights into the underlying strengths and weaknesses of market movements.
This utility differs from other in that it allows for a choke/threshold/sensitivity setting to help weed out noisy signals. This needs to be carefully adjusted per chart.
It also allows for tuning of the MFI smoothing length (number of bars on the current chart) as well as how many previous bars it will take into consideration when calculating RSI and MFI divergences. It will signal when it sees alignment forming between RSI and MFI divergences in a direction. You will likely need to tune this script's settings every few days or at least anytime there is a change in overall market behavior or sustained volatility.
Ultimately, the goal with this script is to provide an additional level of confirmation of weakness or strength. It should be combined with other indicators such as exhaustion, pivots, supply/demand, trendline breaks or tests, and structure changes, to name a few complementary tools or strategies. It's not meant to be a standalone buy/sell signal indicator!

Signals Pro [traderslog]The "Signals Pro" indicator is an advanced and versatile trading tool designed to help traders accurately identify key buy and sell signals using a combination of technical analysis factors such as candle patterns , RSI (Relative Strength Index) , and candle stability . It is highly customizable and offers a range of options that make it suitable for both short-term and long-term traders. By filtering market noise and providing actionable insights, this indicator enhances decision-making and helps traders capitalize on market movements.
At the core of the "Signals Pro" indicator is the concept of Candle Stability . The Candle Stability Index measures the ratio between a candle's body and its wicks, providing insight into the strength of the price movement during that period. A higher value indicates that the candle is more stable, meaning that the price has moved significantly without much retracement. This stability filter is crucial because it prevents the generation of signals during volatile or choppy market conditions where price direction is uncertain. Traders can adjust the Candle Stability Index from 0 to 1, allowing for precise control over how stable a candle must be for the indicator to generate a signal.
Another key feature is the use of RSI (Relative Strength Index) , a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. The RSI index parameter in the indicator can be customized to detect overbought or oversold conditions. When the RSI falls below the defined threshold, it signals that the market may be oversold , which can indicate a potential buying opportunity . Conversely, when the RSI exceeds a certain value, it suggests that the market is overbought , signaling a potential selling opportunity . This allows traders to time their trades more effectively by entering when market conditions are favorable and exiting before a potential reversal occurs.
The Candle Delta Length is another critical element of the "Signals Pro" indicator. This parameter measures how much the price has increased or decreased over a specific number of candles. By adjusting the Candle Delta Length , traders can define how many periods the indicator should analyze before generating a signal. A longer Candle Delta Length means the price has been trending in one direction for a longer period, providing more reliable signals. For instance, if the price has been steadily decreasing for five candles, this could signal a bullish reversal , triggering a buy signal .
To further enhance its accuracy, the "Signals Pro" indicator includes a unique feature that allows traders to disable repeating signals . This is particularly useful in situations where the market is moving sideways or during low volatility periods, where multiple signals may cluster close together, creating confusion. By enabling the disable repeating signals option, traders can prevent these repeated signals and focus on the most important and confirmed signals, ensuring cleaner charts and reducing the risk of overtrading.
A key technical aspect of the indicator is its ability to detect bullish and bearish engulfing patterns . The indicator looks for bullish engulfing patterns, which occur when a bullish candle fully engulfs the body of the previous bearish candle, signaling a potential bullish reversal . Conversely, bearish engulfing patterns occur when a bearish candle fully engulfs the previous bullish candle, indicating a bearish reversal . By incorporating these candle patterns with the Candle Stability Index and RSI levels , the indicator provides highly reliable signals based on price action and market sentiment.
Visual customization is another major advantage of the "Signals Pro" indicator. Traders can choose from several different label styles , such as text bubbles , triangles , or arrows to mark the buy and sell signals on the chart. This makes the signals stand out and easy to interpret at a glance. Furthermore, the color of these signals can be customized: green for buy signals and red for sell signals , along with options to adjust the text size and label styles for even more personalization. Traders can make the signals more or less prominent based on their preference, enhancing readability and workflow efficiency.
The indicator also includes a comprehensive alert system , ensuring traders never miss an opportunity. Alerts can be set for both buy and sell signals , and the system triggers in real-time when a valid signal is generated. This is especially useful for active traders who want to stay on top of the markets without constantly monitoring their screens. The alert system helps ensure that traders are notified of potential trading opportunities as soon as they arise, allowing them to act quickly in volatile markets.
From a practical standpoint, the "Signals Pro" indicator is designed to work seamlessly across multiple timeframes, making it suitable for scalpers, day traders, swing traders, and even long-term investors. Its flexibility allows it to adapt to different trading styles and time horizons, providing value for a wide range of market participants.
In summary, the Signals Pro indicator offers a robust and customizable solution for identifying buy and sell signals . By combining candle stability , RSI analysis , and engulfing patterns , the indicator provides traders with reliable signals to enter or exit trades. The ability to customize signal appearance, coupled with a real-time alert system , makes the "Signals Pro" indicator an invaluable tool for traders looking to improve their timing and decision-making. Whether you are looking to capture short-term price movements or want to time entries and exits in longer-term trends, this indicator offers the insights needed to navigate the markets with confidence.
Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing the Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy (CVDS) Indicator, an advanced tool designed to enhance trading strategies by identifying potential trend reversals through volume dynamics. This script features integrated order block detection, Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), and a dynamic take-profit (TP) and stop-loss (SL) system. For an in-depth understanding of the strategy, refer to the "HOW DOES IT WORK?" section below.
Features of the new Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy (CVDS) Indicator :
Cumulative Volume Delta-based Strategy
Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG) Entry Methods
Dynamic TP/SL System
Customizable Risk Management Settings
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP, and SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The CVDS indicator operates by tracking the net volume difference between buyers and sellers to identify divergences that could indicate potential trend reversals. A cumulative volume delta (CVD) calculation is employed to measure the intensity of these divergences in relation to price movements. The net volume sum is reset every trading day (can be changed from the settings using the anchor period option), and divergences are detected when the cumulative volume crosses the 0-line over or under.
Once a significant divergence is detected, the indicator identifies breakout points, confirmed by either Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) or Order Blocks (OBs). Depending on your chosen entry mode, the indicator will trigger a buy or sell entry when the confirmation signal aligns with the breakout direction. Alerts for Buy, Sell, Take-Profit, and Stop-Loss are available.
Note that the indicator cannot run on 1-minute and 1-second charts, as it needs to get data from a lower timeframe. 1-minutes & 1-second timeframes are the minimum timeframes in their ranges respectively.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
What sets this indicator apart is the combination of volume divergence analysis with advanced price action tools like Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks (OBs). The ability to choose between these methods, along with a dynamic TP/SL system that adapts based on volatility, provides flexibility for traders in any market condition. The backtesting dashboard provides metrics about the performance of the indicator. You can use it to tune the settings for best use in the current ticker. The CVD-based strategy ensures that trades are initiated only when meaningful divergences between volume and price occur, filtering out noise and increasing the likelihood of profitable trades.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Anchor Period: Time anchor period used in CVD calculation. This is essentially the period that the volume delta sum will be reset. Lower timeframes may result in more entries at the cost of less reliable results.
Entry Mode: Choose between FVGs or OBs to trigger your entries based on the confirmation signals.
Retracement Requirement: Enable to confirm the entry after a retracement toward the FVG or OB.
2. Fair Value Gaps
FVG Sensitivity: Modify the sensitivity of FVG detection, allowing for more or fewer gaps to be considered valid.
3. Order Blocks (OB)
Swing Length: Define the swing length to identify OB formations. Shorter lengths find smaller OBs, while longer lengths detect larger structures.
4. TP / SL
TP / SL Method:
a) Dynamic: The TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm based on the Average True Range (ATR) of the current ticker.
b) Fixed : You can adjust the exact TP / SL ratios from the settings below.
Dynamic 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.
Macro Timeframes with Opening PriceDescription: Macro Timeframe Horizontal Line Indicator
This indicator highlights macro periods on the chart by drawing a horizontal line at the opening price of each macro period. The macro timeframe is defined as the last 10 minutes of an hour (from :50 to :00) and the first 10 minutes of the following hour (from :00 to :10).
A horizontal black line is plotted at the opening price of the macro period, starting at :50 and extending through the duration of the macro window. However, you can customize it however you see fit.
The background of the macro period is highlighted with a customizable color to visually distinguish the timeframe.
The horizontal line updates at each macro period, ensuring that the opening price for every macro session is accurately reflected on the chart.
This tool is useful for traders who want to track the behavior of price within key macro intervals and visually assess price movement and volatility during these periods.
