Gold Sniper MGC1! - M30 Precision vPOCThis Pine Script, titled "Gold Sniper MGC1! - M30 Precision vPOC," is a high-precision intraday trading tool designed specifically for Micro Gold (MGC1!) futures. It integrates Market Profile and Volume Profile logic to identify key institutional levels across various trading sessions.
Core Functionality
The script identifies and plots the Volume Point of Control (vPOC)—the price level with the highest traded volume—for specific time windows:
P.vPOC (Previous vPOC): Calculated using a Daily VWAP sync to align perfectly with institutional data from the previous day.
vPOC Today: Tracks the developing Point of Control for the current global session (18:00 - 17:00).
Killzone vPOCs: Specifically isolates the highest volume price levels for the Asia (02h-08h), London (08h-14h), and New York (14h-17h) sessions.
Key Technical Features
Institutional Alignment: By utilizing request.security and hl2 median price calculations on a 30-minute basis, the script filters out market noise and aligns with the structural levels used by "Smart Money".
Dynamic Labels (Vignettes): Each level is projected to the right of the price action with a color-coded label. These labels dynamically display both the Level Name and the Exact Price (to two decimal places), facilitating rapid order entry.
Visual Hierarchy:
Black (Solid): Previous Day's Value (P.vPOC).
White (Dotted): Current Day's Developing Value.
Gold/Cyan/Orange: Specific Killzone session values.
Strategic Application
This script serves as the "Map" for the Gold Sniper MGC1! strategy. Traders use these levels to identify Liquidity Sweeps or Market Structure Shifts (MSS). When the price interacts with these vPOCs, it often signals institutional rejection or acceptance, providing high-probability entry points for intraday "Sniper" setups.

Auto-Anchored Fibonacci Volume Profile [Custom Array Engine]Description:
1. The Theoretical Foundation: Structure vs. Participation In professional technical analysis, traders often struggle to reconcile two distinct datasets: Price Geometry (where price should go) and Market Participation (where money actually went).
Why Fibonacci? (The Structure) Fibonacci Retracements map the mathematical structure of a trend. They identify psychological and algorithmic "interest zones" (0.382, 0.5, 0.618) where a correction is statistically likely to terminate. However, Fibonacci levels are theoretical—they are "lines in the sand" that do not guarantee liquidity or reaction.
Why Volume Profile? (The Verification) Volume Profile maps the historical exchange of shares at specific price levels. It reveals "fair value" (High Volume Nodes) and "market imbalance" (Low Volume Nodes). It is the only tool that verifies if a specific price level was actually accepted by institutional participants.
2. Underlying Calculations (The Custom Engine) This script operates on a custom-built calculation engine that bypasses standard built-in functions entirely. It uses Pine Script Arrays to build a Volume Profile from scratch. Here is the breakdown of the proprietary code logic:
A. The "Smart-Fill" Distribution Algorithm (Solves Gapping)
The Problem: Standard volume scripts often assign a candle's entire volume to a single price row. In volatile markets or steep trends, this creates visual "gaps" or a "barcode" effect because price moved too fast to register on every row.
My Solution: I wrote a custom loop that calculates the vertical overlap of every candle against the profile grid.
The Math: Volume Per Bin = Total Candle Volume / Bins Touched.
The Result: If a single volatile candle spans 10 price rows (bins), the script mathematically divides that volume and distributes it equally into all 10 array indices. This generates a solid, continuous distribution curve that accurately reflects price action through the entire candle range, not just the close.
B. Dynamic Arrays & Split-Volume Logic The script initializes two separate floating-point arrays (buyVolArray and sellVolArray) sized to the user's resolution (up to 300 rows). It iterates through the specific time-window of the swing:
If Close >= Open, the calculated volume slice is injected into the Buy Array.
If Close < Open, it is injected into the Sell Array.
These arrays are then visually stacked to render the dual-color profile, allowing traders to see the "Delta" (Buyer vs. Seller aggression) at key structural levels.
C. Custom Garbage Collection (Performance) To enable the "Auto-Anchoring" feature without causing chart lag or visual artifacts ("ghosting"), the script includes a Garbage Collection System. Before drawing a new profile, the script iterates through a tracking array of all existing objects (box.delete, line.delete) and clears them from memory. This ensures the indicator remains lightweight and responsive even when dragging chart margins or switching timeframes.
3. The Synthesis: Why Combine Them? The core philosophy of this script is Confluence . A Fibonacci level without volume is merely a suggestion; a Fibonacci level backed by volume is a defensive wall. By algorithmically anchoring a Volume Profile to the exact coordinates of a Fibonacci swing, this tool allows traders to instantly answer critical questions:
"Is the Golden Pocket (0.618) supported by a High Volume Node (HVN), or is it a Low Volume Node (LVN) that price might slice through?"
"Is the Shallow Retracement (0.382) holding because of structural support, or just a lack of selling pressure?"
4. How to Read the Indicator
The Geometry: The script automatically detects the trend and draws standard Fib levels (0, 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, 1.0).
The Confluence Check: Look for the Point of Control (Red Line). If this High Volume Node aligns with a key Fib level (e.g., the 0.618), the probability of a reversal increases significantly.
The Imbalance Check: Look for "Valleys" in the profile (Low Volume Nodes). These gaps often act as "slippage zones" where price travels quickly between structural levels.
Buy/Sell Splits: The dual-color bars (Teal/Red) reveal the composition of the volume. A 0.618 level held up by dominant Buy Volume is a stronger bullish signal than one with mixed volume.
5. Settings & Customization
Lookback Length: Sensitivity of the swing detection (Default: 200 bars).
Resolution: Granularity of the profile rows (Default: 100). Higher values provide smoother definition.
Width (%): Responsive sizing that scales the profile relative to the trend's duration.
Extend Lines: Option to project structural levels infinitely to the right.

RSI Structure Engine (Aggressive Soft) | It measures the direction (trend) and turning points of the market via RSI(7).
But unlike the classic RSI:
It doesn't say "sell at 70 - buy at 30" ❌
Instead:
It reveals the STRUCTURE of the RSI (HH–HL / LH–LL).
That is:
Is there a trend?
Is the trend continuing?
Has the trend ended?
It divides the RSI into 3 zones:
Zone Meaning
RSI ≥ 70 Strong upward momentum (peak regime)
RSI ≤ 30 Strong downward momentum (bottom regime)
30–70 Transition / breathing space
But the key point is this 👇
The bottom/top RSI is FOLLOWED within these regimes, it doesn't lock in immediately.
What and How
🔺 🔻 Locked RSI peak/trough
HH/HL RSI upward trend
LH/LL RSI downward trend
Small points being followed (not yet locked)
If RSI HL breaks, the trend ends
WHAT YOU SHOULDN'T DO?
❌ Don't assume it's a buy-sell indicator alone
❌ Don't short just because you see RSI 70
❌ Don't long just because you see RSI 30
This indicator:
Answers the question "Which side should I be on?"
It doesn't say "Enter right here"
TREND FILTER (MAIN USE)
LONG LOOK:
Last structure: HH + HL
RSI doesn't fall below 30
🔻 HL is protected
SHORT LOOK:
Last structure: LH + LL
RSI cannot rise above 70
🔺 LH is protected
❌ Don't take a trade in the opposite direction.
Druckenmiller Alpha-Physics [Dual-Core]Stop trading in a vacuum. Start trading like a Macro Fund Manager.
The Druckenmiller Alpha-Physics engine is a professional-grade dashboard designed to solve the single biggest problem in trading: Context. Most traders buy a "dip" only to realize it was a crash, or sell a "rip" only to watch it fly higher.
This tool solves this by synthesizing Market Physics (Velocity & Acceleration) across two distinct timeframes (Weekly Macro & Daily Tactical) and filtering every signal through a Global Liquidity Shield.
It is engineered based on the trading philosophy of Stanley Druckenmiller: “I don’t care about the news. I care about the liquidity and the acceleration of the trend.”
How It Works (The Dual-Core Logic)
The engine runs 27 distinct sector assets through a dual-loop physics processor:
The Macro Core (Weekly): Analyzes the 18-month trend. Is the "Tide" coming in or going out?
The Tactical Core (Daily): Analyzes the 3-day price action. Is the "Wave" crashing or rising?
It then synthesizes these two data streams into a single Action Signal.
The Signals (How to Read)
The dashboard tells you exactly what to do based on the conflict between Macro and Micro:
🟢 BUY PULLBACK (The "Alpha" Trade):
Logic: Macro is RIPPING (Bullish) + Tactical is TOP/CRASH (Bearish).
Meaning: You are buying a long-term leader on a short-term discount.
🔵 STINK BID (The "Bottom" Trade):
Logic: Macro is TURNING UP + Tactical is CRASHING.
Meaning: The physics have shifted positive, but price is still dumping. Place limit orders -5% lower to catch the panic bottom.
🔴 SELL RIP (The "Trap" Trade):
Logic: Macro is TOPPING (Bearish) + Tactical is RIPPING (Bullish).
Meaning: The long-term trend is dead. Sell into this short-term rally immediately.
⚪ HOLD: All systems go. Sit on your hands and ride the trend.
The "Invisible" Liquidity Shield
The most dangerous time to buy is when the Fed is draining liquidity. This script monitors the 10-Year Treasury Yield (TNX) and VIX in real-time.
If Liquidity is OK (Navy Header): Signals are valid. Green means Go.
If Liquidity is TIGHT (Maroon Header): The entire dashboard enters "Defense Mode." Buy signals are tinted Maroon to warn you that you are fighting the Fed.
Included Universe (The "Ultimate" List)
Includes 27 institutional-grade tickers covering every corner of the market:
Growth: XLK, SMH, IGV, GRID, QTUM
Cyclical: JETS, XHB, KRE, XLI, XLF
Commodities: GDX, URA, XLE, XLB, TAN
Risk/Safety: IBIT, TLT, XLV, XLP
Note: This script uses dynamic request handling optimized for Pine Script v6. It is designed for Premium/Ultimate plans due to the high volume of data processing (54+ simultaneous streams).
SMT Divergence [Kodexius]SMT Divergence is a correlation-based divergence detector built around the Smart Money Technique concept: when two normally correlated instruments should be making similar swing progress, but one prints a new extreme while the other fails to confirm it. This “disagreement” can be a valuable contextual signal around liquidity runs, distribution phases, and potential reversal or continuation points.
The script compares the chart symbol (primary) with a user-selected comparison symbol (for example BTC vs ETH, ES vs NQ, EUR/USD vs GBP/USD) and automatically scans both instruments for confirmed swing highs and swing lows using pivot logic. Once swings are established, it checks for classic SMT conditions:
Primary makes a new swing extreme while the comparison symbol forms a non-confirming swing .
To support a wider range of markets, the indicator includes an Inverse Correlation option for pairs that typically move opposite to each other (for example DXY vs EUR/USD). With this enabled, the divergence rules are logically flipped so that the script still detects “non-confirmation” in a way that is consistent with the pair’s relationship.
The indicator is designed to be readable and actionable. It can draw divergence labels directly on the main chart, connect the relevant swing points with lines, show a compact information table with the last signal and settings, and optionally render the comparison symbol as a mini candle chart in the indicator pane for quick visual validation.
🔹 Features
🔸 Two-Symbol SMT Analysis (Primary vs Compare)
Select any comparison symbol to evaluate correlation structure and divergence. The script fetches the comparison OHLC data using the current chart timeframe to keep both series aligned for analysis.
🔸 Inverse Correlation Mode
For inversely correlated pairs, enable “Inverse Correlation” so the script interprets confirmation appropriately (for example, a higher low on the comparison instrument might be expected to correspond to a lower low on the primary, depending on the relationship). This helps avoid false conclusions when the pair naturally moves opposite.
🔸 Pivot-Based Swing with Adjustable Sensitivity
Swings are detected using confirmed pivots (left bars and right bars). This provides cleaner structural swing points compared with raw candle-to-candle comparisons, and it lets you control sensitivity for different market conditions and timeframes. The script also limits stored swing history to keep performance stable.
🔸 Flexible Detection Mode: Time Matched or Independent Swings
You can choose how swings are paired across instruments:
Time Matched searches for a comparison swing that occurred at the same pivot time as the primary swing.
Independent Swings compares each symbol’s own last two swings without requiring an exact time match.
🔸 Range Control and Noise Filtering
To reduce weak or irrelevant signals:
“Max Bars Between Swings” ensures the two swings being compared are close enough in structure to be meaningful.
“Min Price Diff (%)” can require a minimum percentage change between the primary’s last two swing prices to confirm the move is significant.
🔸 Clear Visual Output with Tooltips
When a divergence is detected, the script can print a label (“SMT”) with bullish or bearish styling and a tooltip that includes the symbol pair and the primary swing price for quick context.
🔸 Divergence Lines for Context
Optional lines connect the relevant swing points, making it easier to see the exact structure that triggered the signal. One line can be drawn on the main chart and another in the indicator pane for the comparison series.
🔸 Info Table (At a Glance)
A compact table can display the active symbols, correlation mode, total divergences stored, and the most recent signal type.
🔸 Alerts Included
Built-in alert conditions are provided for bullish SMT, bearish SMT, and any SMT event so you can automate notifications without editing the code.
🔸 Optional Comparison Candle Panel
If enabled, the indicator can plot the comparison symbol as candles in the indicator pane. This is useful for confirming whether the divergence is happening around major levels, consolidations, or impulsive legs on the secondary instrument.
🔹 Calculations
This section summarizes the core logic used by the script.
1. Data Synchronization (Comparison Symbol)
The comparison instrument is requested on the chart’s current timeframe so swing calculations are performed consistently:
=
request.security(compareSymbolInput, timeframe.period, )
This ensures pivots and swing times are derived from the same bar cadence as the primary chart.
2. Swing Detection via Confirmed Pivots
Swings are detected using pivot logic with user-defined left and right bars:
primaryPivotHigh = ta.pivothigh(high, pivotLeftBars, pivotRightBars)
primaryPivotLow = ta.pivotlow(low, pivotLeftBars, pivotRightBars)
Because pivots are confirmed only after the “right bars” have closed, the script stores each swing using an offset so the swing’s bar index and time reflect where the pivot actually occurred, not where it was confirmed.
3. Swing Storage and Retrieval
Both symbols maintain arrays of SwingPoint objects. Each new swing is pushed into the array, and older swings are dropped once the array exceeds the configured maximum. This makes the divergence engine predictable and prevents uncontrolled memory growth.
The script then retrieves the last and previous swing highs and lows (per symbol) to evaluate structure.
4. Matching Logic (Time Matched vs Independent)
When “Time Matched” is selected, the script searches the comparison swing array for a pivot that occurred at the exact same timestamp as the primary swing. When “Independent Swings” is selected, it simply uses the comparison symbol’s last two swings of the same type.
5. Bullish SMT Condition (LL vs HL)
A bullish SMT event is defined as:
Primary forms a lower low (last low < previous low)
Comparison forms a higher low (last low > previous low)
If inverse correlation is enabled, the comparison condition flips to maintain logical confirmation rules
The two primary swings must be within the configured bar distance window
Optional minimum percentage difference must be satisfied
A simple anti duplication rule prevents repeated triggers on the same structure
These checks are implemented directly in the bullish detection block.
6. Bearish SMT Condition (HH vs LH)
A bearish SMT event is defined as:
Primary forms a higher high (last high > previous high)
Comparison forms a lower high (last high < previous high)
Inverse correlation flips the comparison rule
Range checks, minimum difference filtering, and duplicate protection apply similarly
These checks are implemented in the bearish detection block.
7. Percentage Difference Filter
The optional “Min Price Diff (%)” filter measures the relative distance between the last two primary swing prices. This prevents very small structural changes from being treated as valid SMT signals.
priceDiffPerc = math.abs(lastSwing.price - prevSwing.price) / prevSwing.price * 100.0
The divergence condition is only allowed to trigger if this value exceeds the user defined threshold.
priceOk = priceDiffPerc >= minPriceDiff
This filter is especially useful on higher timeframes or during low volatility conditions, where micro structure noise can otherwise produce misleading signals.
8. Visualization and Output
When a divergence is confirmed, the script:
Stores the event in a divergence array (limited by “Max Divergences to Display”)
Draws a directional SMT label with a tooltip (optional)
Draws connecting lines using time based coordinates for clean alignment (optional)
It also updates an information table on the last bar only, and exposes alertconditions for automation workflows.
Composite Fear & Greed IndexComposite Fear & Greed Index
This is an advanced, professional-grade sentiment analysis engine designed to quantify market psychology. Unlike standard oscillators that rely on a single metric, this script uses a weighted composite of four distinct technical components to generate a holistic "Fear & Greed" score.
It includes Multi-Timeframe (MTF) capabilities, proprietary FOMO/Panic detection logic, and Zero-Lag trend analysis.
1. Unique Mathematical Methodology
This script is not a simple overlay of existing indicators. It uses a Composite Normalization Engine to blend four distinct metrics into a single, bounded 0-100 oscillator.
The "Mashup" Problem Solved: Standard indicators like MACD are "unbounded" (they can go to infinity), while RSI is "bounded" (0-100). You cannot simply average them.
Our Solution: This script calculates the Z-Score of the MACD histogram relative to its historical deviation and normalizes it into a 0-100 percentile. This allows for a mathematically valid combination with RSI and Bollinger Bands.
The Component Logic:
Momentum (RSI): (Weight: 30%) Pure price velocity.
Volatility (Bollinger %B): (Weight: 25%) Relative position within volatility bands.
Trend Strength (Normalized MACD): (Weight: 25%) Uses the custom Z-Score logic described above.
Trend Integrity (ZLEMA): (Weight: 20%) We replaced the standard SMA with a custom Zero-Lag Exponential Moving Average (ZLEMA) algorithm. This removes the "lag" associated with traditional sentiment analysis, allowing the index to react to crypto volatility in real-time.
The Calculation: These raw values are weighted and smoothed to produce the final Index Value.
Greater than 80: Extreme Greed (High risk of reversal)
Less than 20: Extreme Fear (Potential accumulation zone)
2. Unique Features
A. FOMO & Panic Event Detection The script does not just track price; it tracks behavior.
FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out): Triggered when Price breaks the Upper Bollinger Band + RSI is Overbought + Volume spikes > 2.5x the average. This often marks local tops.
PANIC: Triggered when Price drops significantly in one bar + Volume spikes > 3.0x the average + RSI is Oversold. This often marks capitulation bottoms.
B. Divergence Detection The script automatically detects and plots Regular Bullish and Bearish divergences between Price and the Sentiment Index.
Bullish Divergence: Price makes a Lower Low, but Sentiment makes a Higher Low (indicating waning selling pressure).
Bearish Divergence: Price makes a Higher High, but Sentiment makes a Lower High (indicating waning buying pressure). Note: The script plots these signals precisely on the indicator line corresponding to the pivot point.
C. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Engine Users can view the "Daily" sentiment score while trading on a 5-minute or 15-minute chart. This allows scalpers to align their trades with the higher-timeframe market psychology.
3. Usage Guide
Step 1: Trend Alignment Look at the dashboard or the main line color. Green indicates Greed/Uptrend, Red indicates Fear/Downtrend.
Step 2: Extremes
Sell/Take Profit: When the Index crosses 80 (Extreme Greed) or a "FOMO" triangle appears.
Buy/Long: When the Index crosses 20 (Extreme Fear) or a "PANIC" triangle appears.
Step 3: Confirmation Use the Divergence Dots as confirmation. A "Panic" signal followed by a "Bullish Divergence" dot is a high-probability reversal setup.
Settings
Timeframe: Select the MTF resolution (default is Chart).
Weights: You can adjust the influence of RSI, MACD, BB, or Trend to fit your specific asset class.
Visuals: Fully customizable colors, table position, and toggle switches for shapes/backgrounds.

First Candle Range (FCR) Gold Strategy - EtubersThe 18:00 (6:00 PM) candle is widely used by traders in the Forex and Futures markets because it marks the New York market rollover and the start of the Asian session.
How the Strategy Works:
- The Range: The High and Low prices of the 1-hour candle (18:00–19:00) create a "Supply and Demand" zone.
- The Breakout: A candle closing above the high signals a bullish breakout; a candle closing below the low signals a bearish breakout.
- Institutional Memory: By extending this zone forward for 4 days, traders can identify where "old" 18:00 levels act as support or resistance in the future.
- Execution: Traders often wait for a breakout followed by a "retest" of the box boundary to enter a high-probability trade.
Gemini Scalping Strategy [Pro Dash]Description: Gemini Scalping Strategy is a comprehensive monitoring system designed for high-frequency trading and scalping on lower timeframes (1m to 15m). This tool combines a fast-response Trailing Stop based on Average True Range (ATR) with a professional, real-time multi-factor Dashboard to provide a complete view of market structure and momentum.
Key Features:
Reactive ATR Trailing Stop: Provides immediate Buy/Sell signals based on volatility expansion and price breakouts. The trail line dynamically changes color to reflect volatility health.
Contextual Dashboard:
Choppiness Index (Corrected): Identifies whether the market is in a Trending phase (below 38.2) or a Sideways phase (above 61.8), helping to avoid "noise" in flat markets.
RSI Control Logic: Uses the 50-level pivot to define market control (Bull Control vs. Bear Control) instead of simple overbought/oversold levels.
ADX Strength: Measures trend intensity to filter out weak breakouts.
ATR Expansion: Monitors whether current volatility is above its average to confirm entry momentum.
How to use:
Entry: Primary signals are generated by the ATR triangles.
Confirmation: Use the Dashboard to verify market quality. High-probability trades occur when ATR signals align with "TREND" status on the CHOP and "BULL/BEAR CONTROL" on the RSI.
Customization: All dashboard elements (position, size, transparency, and theme) are fully customizable via the settings menu.

Liquidity Sweep Guardian (Universal % or point based)
Liquidity Sweep Guardian - Complete User Guide
## Overview
The **Liquidity Sweep Guardian** is a visual warning system designed to prevent premature counter-trend trades (fades) near Previous Day High (PDH) and Previous Day Low (PDL) levels. This indicator helps you avoid one of the most common trading mistakes: fading too early before liquidity sweeps complete.
---
## 🎯 Core Trading Principle
### **THE GOLDEN RULE: Don't Fade Until It's Unlocked**
Price often **accelerates into key levels** to sweep liquidity before reversing. Trading against this momentum is extremely dangerous.
**The Process:**
1. **Danger Zone** (Red/White Box) = ⚠️ **DO NOT FADE** - Sweep likely incoming
2. **Sweep Occurs** (Triangle marker appears) = Price penetrates the level
3. **Reclaim Happens** (Price returns above/below level) = Level is tested
4. **🔓 UNLOCKED** (Gold border, green label) = **NOW you may CONSIDER a fade**
> **Important:** "UNLOCKED" means you may now *consider* a fade setup. It is NOT a trade signal itself. You still need your entry confirmation, risk management, and trade plan.
---
## 📊 Visual Elements Explained
### 1. **Danger Zone Boxes (Red Border by Default)**
**Two types of zones around PDH/PDL:**
- **Outer Danger Zone** (White fill): ±75pts (or 0.30%) around the level
- Indicates proximity to a key level where sweeps commonly occur
- Yellow/cautious trading zone
- **Inner Critical Zone** (Black fill): ±25pts (or 0.10%) around the level
- Highest probability area for liquidity sweep traps
- Avoid fading here at all costs
**What to do:**
- When price enters these zones, **wait and watch**
- Do not initiate counter-trend positions
- Allow the sweep to play out
### 2. **Unlocked Zones (Gold Border #ffeb3b)**
When a zone turns **gold/yellow** with green fill:
- The level has been swept AND reclaimed
- The liquidity grab is complete
- You may now look for fade opportunities with proper confirmation
### 3. **PDH/PDL Lines**
- **PDH Line** (Red): Previous Day High with price label
- **PDL Line** (Green): Previous Day Low with price label
- These are your key reference levels for the session
### 4. **Sweep Labels**
**Triangle Markers (SWEEP):**
- **Green Triangle** = Clean sweep (10-25pts penetration)
- **Orange Triangle** = Extended sweep (25-50pts penetration)
- **Red Triangle** = Deep penetration (50+ pts) - likely continuation, not reversal
**Warning Labels:**
- **⚠️ DEEP CONTINUATION?** = Penetration too deep, probably NOT a reversal setup
**Unlock Labels:**
- **🔓 LONG UNLOCKED** = PDL swept and reclaimed, may consider long fades
- **🔓 SHORT UNLOCKED** = PDH swept and reclaimed, may consider short fades

SMC Structure & Expectation [WavesUnchained]SMC Structure & Expectation - Professional Context & Confirmation Tool
A sophisticated Smart Money Concepts indicator that combines objective market structure analysis with intelligent expectation logic and professional order block validation. Built for traders who value context over signal spam.
4-LAYER ARCHITECTURE
Layer 1: Market Structure
✓ Objective HH/HL/LH/LL detection based on confirmed pivot swings
✓ Internal structure tracking (micro swings within major legs)
✓ Structure alignment detection (Internal + External agreement)
✓ No predictions - pure price action description
Layer 2: Expectation/Bias
✓ Logical hypotheses derived from current structure
✓ "Expect HL" in bullish structure / "Expect LH" in bearish structure
✓ "Expect Continuation" after BOS events
✓ Expectation ≠ Signal (can be wrong, that's the point)
Layer 3: Confirmation (BOS + Order Blocks)
✓ Break of Structure (BOS) detection with 2 modes:
• Conservative: Close-cross (default)
• Aggressive: High/Low-cross with optional close confirmation
✓ Professional Order Block System with 8 intelligent filters

Support and ResistanceSupport & Resistance Zones
This indicator automatically identifies support and resistance zones by clustering confirmed pivot highs and lows into statistically valid price areas.
Instead of drawing single horizontal lines, it creates price zones whose width is dynamically controlled using ATR (Average True Range), allowing the zones to adapt to market volatility.
Core Logic
The indicator scans a user-defined number of historical bars and detects pivot highs and pivot lows using a configurable pivot strength.
Each new pivot is evaluated against previously detected zones:
A zone becomes visible only after receiving sufficient confirmation (minimum number of pivot touches).
This ensures that only structurally meaningful levels are drawn.
Zone Construction Rules
Zones are formed by grouping pivot points whose total price range remains within ATR range
Each zone expands dynamically as new pivots confirm it
Zones are drawn as rectangular areas, not lines
Zones extend to the right, remaining active until price structure changes
This approach avoids over-plotting and reduces noise commonly seen in traditional support/resistance tools.
Dynamic Zone Coloring
Zones automatically change color based on current price position:
Support Color → Price is above the zone
Resistance Color → Price is below the zone
Neutral (In-Zone) Color → Price is trading inside the zone
This makes it easy to visually assess market context without additional indicators.
Inputs Explained
Logic Settings
Bars to Apply
Number of historical bars scanned to detect pivots and construct zones.
Pivot Strength
Number of candles required on both sides of a pivot high/low for confirmation.
Min Pivot Confirmation
Minimum number of aligned pivots required before a zone is drawn.
Styling
Support, resistance, and in-zone colors
Zone fill transparency
Why This Approach
Uses price structure, not arbitrary levels
Adapts to market volatility via ATR
Filters out weak, single-touch levels
Works across all markets and timeframes
This indicator is designed to highlight areas of interest, not generate buy or sell signals.
It is best used in combination with trend, momentum, or volume-based tools.

Candle Strength Analyzer by The Ultimate Bull Run# Candle Strength Analyzer
## 📊 Complete Beginner's Guide
---
### 🎯 What This Indicator Does
The **Candle Strength Analyzer** measures how "strong" or "weak" each candlestick is and displays a **score from 0 to 100** above or below every candle.
- **Green numbers** = Bullish (price went UP)
- **Red numbers** = Bearish (price went DOWN)
- **Gray numbers** = Doji (price barely moved)
**Higher score = Stronger candle = More reliable signal**
---
### 🕯️ Understanding Candlesticks (The Basics)
If you're new to trading, here's what a candlestick shows:
```
│ ← Upper Wick (prices that were rejected)
│
┌───┐
│ │ ← Body (the "real" price movement)
│ │ • Green/White body = Price went UP (Bullish)
│ │ • Red/Black body = Price went DOWN (Bearish)
└───┘
│
│ ← Lower Wick (prices that were rejected)
```
**Key Terms:**
- **Open**: The price when the candle started
- **Close**: The price when the candle ended
- **High**: The highest price during the candle
- **Low**: The lowest price during the candle
- **Body**: The rectangle between Open and Close
- **Wick/Shadow**: The thin lines above and below the body
---
## 📐 The 4 Components of Candle Strength
This indicator combines **4 measurements** to calculate the final strength score. Let's understand each one:
---
### 1️⃣ Body Ratio (30% of score)
**What it is:**
The percentage of the candle that is "body" versus "wicks."
**Formula:**
```
Body Ratio = Size of Body ÷ Total Candle Size × 100
```
**What it tells you:**
- **High Body Ratio (70-100%)**: Bulls or bears were in FULL control. The price moved in one direction and STAYED there. This is strong.
- **Low Body Ratio (0-30%)**: There was a fight. Price moved up AND down but ended up roughly where it started. This is weak/indecisive.
**Visual Example:**
```
Strong Candle (90% body): Weak Candle (20% body):
│ │
┌───┐ │
│ │ ┌─┴─┐
│ │ ← Mostly body │ │ ← Tiny body
│ │ └─┬─┘
└───┘ │
│ │
```
**How to interpret:**
| Body Ratio | Meaning |
|------------|---------|
| 90-100% | **Marubozu** - Extremely strong, full commitment |
| 70-90% | **Strong** - Clear winner (bulls or bears) |
| 40-70% | **Normal** - Typical market activity |
| 10-40% | **Weak** - Significant indecision |
| 0-10% | **Doji** - Complete indecision, no winner |
---
### 2️⃣ Close Position Score (25% of score)
**What it is:**
WHERE the candle closed within its range (high to low).
**What it tells you:**
- For a **bullish (green) candle**: Closing near the HIGH means buyers were still eager at the end = STRONG
- For a **bearish (red) candle**: Closing near the LOW means sellers were still eager at the end = STRONG
**Visual Example:**
```
Strong Bullish: Weak Bullish:
(closes near high) (closes near middle)
┌───┐ ← Close here │
│ │ ┌─┴─┐ ← Close here
│ │ │ │
│ │ │ │
└───┘ └───┘
│ │
```
**Why it matters:**
If price went UP but then sellers pushed it back down before the candle closed, that's a sign of weakness. The bulls couldn't hold their ground.
**How to interpret:**
| Close Position | For Bullish Candle | For Bearish Candle |
|----------------|-------------------|-------------------|
| 80-100% | Strong (near high) | Weak (near high) |
| 50-80% | Moderate | Moderate |
| 20-50% | Weak | Moderate |
| 0-20% | Very Weak (near low) | Strong (near low) |
---
### 3️⃣ Relative Volume - RVOL (25% of score)
**What is Volume?**
Volume is the NUMBER of shares/contracts traded during that candle. Think of it as "how many people participated."
**What is RVOL?**
RVOL compares TODAY'S volume to the AVERAGE volume.
**Formula:**
```
RVOL = Current Volume ÷ Average Volume (last 20 candles)
```
**What it tells you:**
- **RVOL = 1.0**: Normal activity (same as average)
- **RVOL = 2.0**: DOUBLE the normal activity (2x more traders involved)
- **RVOL = 0.5**: HALF the normal activity (fewer traders involved)
**Why it matters:**
A big price move with LOW volume is suspicious - it might not last.
A big price move with HIGH volume is confirmed - many traders agree.
**Think of it like voting:**
- High volume = Many people voted for this direction
- Low volume = Only a few people voted, decision might change
**How to interpret:**
| RVOL | Meaning | Signal Quality |
|------|---------|----------------|
| 2.0+ | Very High - Institutional activity likely | ⭐⭐⭐ Excellent |
| 1.5-2.0 | High - Significant interest | ⭐⭐ Good |
| 1.0-1.5 | Above Average | ⭐ Acceptable |
| 0.7-1.0 | Below Average | ⚠️ Caution |
| < 0.7 | Low - Lack of interest | ❌ Unreliable |
---
### 4️⃣ Size vs ATR (20% of score)
**What is ATR?**
ATR stands for "Average True Range." It measures how much the price TYPICALLY moves.
**What this component measures:**
How big is THIS candle compared to how big candles USUALLY are?
**Formula:**
```
ATR Ratio = This Candle's Size ÷ Average Candle Size (ATR)
```
**What it tells you:**
- **ATR Ratio = 2.0**: This candle is TWICE as big as normal = Significant move
- **ATR Ratio = 1.0**: This candle is normal sized
- **ATR Ratio = 0.5**: This candle is HALF the normal size = Minor move
**Why it matters:**
A 50-point move in a stock that normally moves 100 points is small.
A 50-point move in a stock that normally moves 20 points is HUGE.
Context matters!
**How to interpret:**
| ATR Ratio | Meaning |
|-----------|---------|
| 2.0+ | **Expansion** - Unusually large move, potential breakout |
| 1.5-2.0 | **Large** - Significant momentum |
| 1.0-1.5 | **Above Average** - Notable move |
| 0.5-1.0 | **Normal** - Typical movement |
| < 0.5 | **Small** - Insignificant, might be noise |
---
## 🧮 How the Final Score is Calculated
The indicator combines all 4 components with these weights:
```
Final Score = (Body Ratio × 30%) +
(Close Position × 25%) +
(RVOL Score × 25%) +
(Size Score × 20%)
```
**Result: A score from 0 to 100**
---
## 📊 Understanding the Strength Score
| Score | Classification | What It Means | Should You Trade It? |
|-------|---------------|---------------|---------------------|
| **70-100** | 🟢 STRONG | High conviction move, reliable signal | ✅ Yes - Good setup |
| **40-70** | 🟡 MODERATE | Average move, needs confirmation | ⚠️ Maybe - Add other indicators |
| **0-40** | 🔴 WEAK | Low conviction, unreliable | ❌ No - Wait for better setup |
---
## 🏷️ Special Pattern Markers
The indicator also detects special candlestick patterns:
### ⚡ Power Candle
**Requirements:**
- Body Ratio > 70% (strong body)
- RVOL > 1.5 (high volume)
- Close Position > 80% (closes near the extreme)
**What it means:** The BEST possible signal. Everything aligns perfectly.
### Ⓜ️ Marubozu
**Requirements:**
- Body Ratio > 90% (almost no wicks)
**What it means:** Complete dominance by bulls or bears. Very strong continuation signal.
### ◆ High Volume Doji
**Requirements:**
- Doji candle (tiny body)
- High volume
**What it means:** Many traders are fighting, but no one won. Often signals a REVERSAL is coming.

CVD & Big Trade Detector By HKOverview The CVD & Big Trade Detector By HK offers a unique perspective on Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD). This indicator utilizes Floating Bars (Candles) to visualize the cumulative buying and selling pressure. This design allows you to clearly see the net delta of each specific candle relative to the cumulative trend.
Additionally, it integrates the "Big Trade" algorithm to highlight statistically significant volume anomalies (Whale activity) directly on the CVD bars.
How it Works Since standard volume data does not always provide buy/sell splitting, this script estimates intrabar pressure using price action logic:
Buying Pressure: Calculated based on the push from the Low to the Close.
Selling Pressure: Calculated based on the push from the High to the Close.
The indicator then calculates the Delta (Buy Vol - Sell Vol) and accumulates it.
Floating Bars: Instead of plotting from the zero-line, each bar opens at the previous CVD value and closes at the new cumulative value.
Teal/Green Bar: Net buying in the current period (CVD increased).
Maroon/Red Bar: Net selling in the current period (CVD decreased).
Key Features
Floating CVD Structure: Prevents the "barcode effect" common in histogram CVDs. It provides a clean, candle-like view of momentum accumulation.
Whale Detection:
The script calculates the moving average and standard deviation (Sigma) of the buying/selling volume.
Green Dots: Appear when buying volume exceeds the statistical threshold (Signifying a "Big Buy").
Red Dots: Appear when selling volume exceeds the statistical threshold (Signifying a "Big Sell").
Precise Positioning: Whale markers are plotted exactly at the closing value of the CVD bar, showing you exactly where the volume spike impacted the delta.
How to Use
Divergences: Look for situations where Price makes a Higher High, but the CVD Bars fail to make a new high (bearish divergence).
Absorption: If you see a Large Whale Dot on a very small CVD bar (doji-like), it indicates massive volume fighting for direction with little net result—often a sign of absorption or a pending reversal.
Trend Confirmation: Strong floating bars in the direction of the trend, accompanied by Whale Dots, confirm smart money participation.
Settings
Lookback Period: Defines the baseline for the statistical volume calculation (default: 50).
Sensitivity (Sigma): Adjusts how strict the "Whale" detection is (default: 3.0). Higher values = fewer, more significant signals.
Colors: Fully customizable colors for Up/Down bars and Buy/Sell markers.

BTC - Metcalfes Law (Deviation)Title: BTC – Metcalfe's Law (Deviation) | RM
Overview & Philosophy
The BTC – Metcalfe's Law (Deviation) is a fundamental valuation oscillator that answers one of the most important questions in network economics: "Is the current price justified by the number of active users?" Metcalfe's Law states that the value of a network is proportional to the square of the number of its connected users (Value = Users squared). In the context of Bitcoin, this means that as the number of active addresses grows linearly, the network's fair value should grow exponentially.This script identifies periods where Bitcoin’s market capitalization has become "overextended" or "undervalued" relative to its actual network activity.
Methodology
The indicator performs a rolling log-log regression (Ordinary Least Squares) between Bitcoin's Market Cap and its Active Address count over a 730-day (2-year) window.
1. The Regression: The script calculates the statistical relationship: ln(Market Cap) = alpha + beta * ln(Active Addresses)
2. Pure Metcalfe vs. Generalized Metcalfe:
• Pure Metcalfe (Beta=2): By default, the script enforces a slope of 2.0, adhering to the classic mathematical law.
• Dynamic Fit: Users can disable the "Enforce Metcalfe" setting to let the model find the best historical fit (often resulting in a Beta between 1.5 and 1.8).
3. The Deviation (The Signal):
The resulting line represents the Log-Deviation from Fair Value.
• A value of 0.0 means Bitcoin is priced exactly according to its network utility.
• Positive values indicate a "valuation premium".
• Negative values indicate a "valuation discount".
How to Read the Chart
🔴 The Red Zone (Overvaluation > 1.0)
Meaning: The Market Cap has outpaced the growth of active users. Historically, these peaks represent speculative bubbles or cycle tops where price is driven by hype rather than utility.
🟢 The Green Zone (Undervaluation < -0.25)
Meaning: The network is being utilized, but the price has crashed below its fundamental support. Historically, these "Utility Floors" have marked the most profitable accumulation zones in Bitcoin’s history.
🟠 The Orange Line (Fair Value Transition)
Meaning: The market is in a healthy growth phase, moving in lockstep with user adoption.
Strategy & Interpretation
This tool is a Macro Compass . It is designed to help investors stay objective during periods of extreme market emotion.
• In a Bull Market: Watch for the deviation to hit the Red Zone. This is your signal that the "Network Utility" can no longer support the price, and a major correction is likely imminent.
• In a Bear Market: Look for the "Green Floor." When the price stays below the -0.25 level despite stable user activity, it suggests a massive mismatch between value and price—a classic buy signal.
Settings
• Regression Window (Default: 730 Days): Chosen to capture mid-to-long term cycle trends. Adjust to shorter timeframes for more dynamic behavior or longer timeframes (like 1460 Days) to catch longer cycles.
• Enforce Metcalfe: Toggle between the classic law (Beta=2) and a dynamic fit.
• Smoothing: A 30-day SMA is applied to active addresses to filter out daily "jitter."
Credits
• Robert Metcalfe: For the original law of network utility.
• Willy Woo & Greg Wheatley: For their pioneering work in applying Metcalfe's Law specifically to Bitcoin's valuation.
Important Data Requirement
To function, this indicator requires a data feed for Active Addresses . By default, it is set to GLASSNODE:BTC_ACTIVEADDRESSES . Please Note: On-chain data usually requires a premium vendor subscription on TradingView (e.g., Glassnode, IntoTheBlock, or CryptoQuant). If you do not have a subscription, the indicator will display a "Missing Data" warning.
⚠️ Note: This indicator is optimized for the Daily (1D) Timeframe. Please switch your chart to 1D for accurate signal reading.
Disclaimer
This script is for research and educational purposes only. It relies on third-party on-chain data. Fundamental valuation is only one piece of the puzzle; market dynamics can remain irrational longer than metrics can predict.

Unmitigated Cave Diving MTF High Low - BookMap Style Chart
Unmitigated Cave Diving MTF High Low - BookMap Style Chart
Introduction
This Pine Script indicator tracks unmitigated higher timeframe highs and lows with a session-aware approach, inspired by KinetiCapital's X D HL Targets.
Built for precision trading on instruments like NQ during extended trading hours (ETH), it visualizes support and resistance levels that have not yet been breached, helping traders identify key price zones for potential reversals or breakouts.
Core Features
The indicator monitors multi-timeframe levels (default 15-minute) and applies intelligent styling based on recency and survival duration:
Most Recent Levels: The 1st and 2nd most recent unmitigated highs and lows are highlighted with distinct colors and widths for quick visual identification
Session Age Tracking: Levels are categorized by how many full trading sessions (1800-1700 NQ ETH) they've survived unmitigated, with "old" levels receiving special highlighting once they exceed your defined threshold
BookMap-Style Visualization: Clean horizontal lines with optional price labels positioned above highs and below lows for minimal chart clutter
Real-Time Summary Table: Displays the four most recent levels with their prices, distance in points from current price, and session age
Mitigation Logic
Levels automatically update when price touches them - high levels are mitigated when price reaches or exceeds them, while low levels are mitigated when price touches or breaks below. Mitigated levels change to a neutral gray color and can optionally be deleted at session end to preserve chart memory.
This tool is particularly valuable for intraday traders who trade around key structural levels and need to understand which unmitigated zones represent the freshest or most significant price memory in the market.
Markov: Transition Matrix [Daily Timeframe]Description
This indicator computes a 3-state Markov chain from price action and visualizes the transition probabilities between daily states:
• Up: daily % change > threshold
• Down: daily % change < -threshold
• Sideways: |daily % change| ≤ threshold
From those states, it builds transition matrices:
• Today → Tomorrow (1 day ahead)
• Today → In 2 days
• Today → In 3 days
Each matrix cell shows:
P(next state | current state)
Rows are the current state (today), columns are the future state (tomorrow / +2 / +3).
Each row sums to 100% (when there is sufficient sample size).
________________________________________
How to read it (trader workflow)
1. Identify the current regime (the most recent confirmed daily state).
2. Look at the row matching that regime:
• The ★ marks the highest probability outcome for that row (most likely next state).
• Heatmap intensity increases as probability increases.
• Each row shows its own sample size (n=...) so you can judge statistical support.
3. Use Quick-read:
• “Now” = current regime
• “Best” = top conditional outcome + probability
• “2nd” = second-best outcome + probability
4. Use Universe (N):
• Shows the marginal distribution: how often days are Up/Down/Sideways across the whole dataset.
________________________________________
Settings
Core logic
• Sideways threshold: controls how strict “Sideways” is.
Example: 0.001 = ±0.10% daily move is considered Sideways.
Display
• Toggle 1D / 2D / 3D matrices.
• Highlight best probability per row (★).
• Show n per row (row transition count).
• Focus: current state row only to reduce noise and speed decision-making.
• Quick-read row for the current regime.
Theme (fully customizable)
All colors can be customized:
• Up / Down / Sideways base colors
• Header background + header text
• Values text
• Quick-read neutral background
This makes it suitable for both light and dark chart themes.
________________________________________
Notes / Limitations
• The indicator is designed for daily sessions. It uses daily close-to-close returns to classify states and update the Markov chain once per day.
• On very volatile assets, a very small threshold can make Sideways rare. If you want a more frequent Sideways regime, increase the threshold.
• This is a statistical visualization tool, not a trading system.

Daily/Weekly Swing Highs-Lows + Candle PatternsDescription
Daily/Weekly Swing Highs-Lows + Candle Patterns
This indicator plots the most recent Daily and Weekly Swing Highs and Lows (key support/resistance levels) using a simple and effective logic: a swing high/low is confirmed when the previous bar's extreme is higher/lower than both the current and the one before it.
Features:
• Daily Swing Highs/Lows (teal/maroon circles) – toggleable
• Weekly Swing Highs/Lows (blue/purple circles) – optional
• Visual separators for new daily and weekly bars (light background color)
• Daily candle pattern labels (optional):
- US = Up Swing (strong bullish continuation)
- DS = Down Swing (strong bearish continuation)
- IN = Inside Bar
- OUT = Outside Bar
• Daily close position labels (optional):
- P = Positive (close in upper 25% of the range)
- mP = minor Positive (50–75%)
- mN = minor Negative (25–50%)
- N = Negative (lower 25%)
All elements are fully customizable (colors, visibility) and work on any timeframe.
Best suited for intraday timeframes (1 min to 4 hours) where daily and weekly key levels provide important context for price action and reversals.
The optional "Trading session length" input is mainly useful for markets with shorter sessions (e.g., European indices) and does not affect swing detection.
Open-source, free to use and modify.
How to Use the Indicator + Practical Use Case
Key Settings (Inputs)
Trading session length (hours) → Default 8.5 h (useful for FTSEMIB, DAX, etc.). Leave it as is unless you trade a market with a different session length.
Daily Swing Levels → Show/Hide daily swing highs (teal) and lows (maroon).
Weekly Swing Levels → Usually keep off on intraday charts to avoid clutter (turn on for higher-timeframe context).
Daily Candle Patterns → Enable only if you want to see US/DS/IN/OUT labels on the daily close.
Close Position (P/mP/mN/N) → Enable if you want to quickly see how strong/weak the daily close was.
What You See on the Chart
Teal circles = Last confirmed daily swing high (resistance).
Maroon circles = Last confirmed daily swing low (support).
Blue/purple circles (if enabled) = Weekly swing high/low.
Light gray background = Start of a new trading day.
Purple background (if weekly enabled) = Start of a new week.
Small labels on daily close (if enabled):
- US = strong bullish day
- DS = strong bearish day
- IN = inside bar (consolidation)
- OUT = outside bar (expansion)
- P/mP/mN/N = how far the close was from the high/low of the day.
Best Timeframes 1 min to 240 min charts → Daily levels act as major support/resistance zones for intraday trading.
Avoid using on daily or higher charts (the logic is designed for intraday context).
Why this works well intraday:
The daily swing high/low levels are high-probability zones where institutions and algorithms often defend positions. On intraday charts, they act as “magnets” for price, giving you clean entries and exits with clear invalidation levels.
This indicator keeps your chart clean while providing exactly the context most intraday traders need: key daily levels + daily momentum context.
