Relative Directional Volume Indicator# Relative Directional Volume Indicator (RelDirVol)
## Overview
The Relative Directional Volume Indicator (RelDirVol) is a powerful volume analysis tool that measures current trading volume relative to historical volume while differentiating between bullish and bearish volume flows. This indicator helps traders identify unusual volume activity and determine whether it's coming from buyers or sellers, providing deeper insights into market participation and potential trend strength.
## Features
- **Relative Volume Calculation**: Compares current volume to historical averages
- **Directional Volume Analysis**: Separates and visualizes bullish vs bearish volume
- **Multiple Moving Average Options**: Customize smoothing with various MA types (SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, VWMA)
- **Split Moving Averages**: View distinct moving averages for bullish and bearish volume flows
- **Reference Lines**: Visual guides for normal volume (1.0x) and key deviation levels (0.5x, 2.0x, 3.0x)
- **Customizable Colors**: Adjust visual appearance for improved chart readability
## How It Works
The indicator calculates the relative volume by dividing the current bar's volume by the average volume over a specified lookback period. It then categorizes this volume as either bullish (when price closes above the open) or bearish (when price closes below or equal to the open).
1. **Relative Volume**: Current volume ÷ Average volume from previous N bars
2. **Directional Classification**: Assigns volume to bullish or bearish categories based on price action
3. **Moving Averages**: Applies user-selected moving average to smooth the data
The result is displayed as color-coded histogram bars showing the relative volume magnitude, with optional moving average lines for both overall and direction-specific volume trends.
## Interpretation
### Volume Magnitude
- **Above 1.0**: Higher than average volume (more participation than normal)
- **Below 1.0**: Lower than average volume (less participation than normal)
- **2.0+**: Volume twice the normal level (significant participation)
- **3.0+**: Volume three times normal (exceptional participation, often at key events)
### Directional Analysis
- **Strong Green Bars**: Heavy bullish participation driving prices up
- **Strong Red Bars**: Heavy bearish participation driving prices down
- **Bullish MA > Bearish MA**: Overall buying pressure dominating
- **Bearish MA > Bullish MA**: Overall selling pressure dominating
### Key Signals
- **Volume Spikes with Price Breakouts**: Confirms strength of the move
- **Divergence Between MAs**: Early warning of potential shift in market control
- **Sustained Above-Average Volume**: Strong trend continuation likely
- **Volume Decline After Spike**: Potential exhaustion of trend
## Settings
- **Relative Volume Lookback**: Comparison period for average volume (default: 20)
- **Moving Average Type**: Method used for smoothing (default: SMA)
- **Moving Average Length**: Smoothing period (default: 5)
- **Show Moving Average**: Toggle overall volume MA visibility
- **Show Baseline**: Toggle 1.0 reference line visibility
- **Show Bullish/Bearish MAs**: Toggle direction-specific MA visibility
## Best Practices
This indicator performs best when combined with price action analysis and other indicators. Look for:
1. Volume confirmation of breakouts and trend changes
2. Divergence between price movement and volume direction
3. Shifts in the relationship between bullish and bearish MAs
4. Unusual volume patterns during consolidation phases
Particularly effective for swing trading, day trading, and identifying institutional participation in market moves across multiple timeframes.

Q Momentum FlowQ Momentum Flow
A hybrid trend engine combining breakout-driven momentum shifts with adaptive volatility bands. Designed for traders who want clear entries, intelligent exits, and a balance between reactivity and noise control.
🔧 Core Features
1. Momentum Shift Detection
• Uses dynamic breakout levels (ATR-based) to identify impulse-driven price shifts.
• Filters weak moves by enforcing a cooldown period and direction alternation.
2. Adaptive Trend Framework
• Trend direction is derived from a dual-EMA anchor with dynamic volatility bands.
• Sensitivity automatically adjusts based on smoothed price deviation.
3. Entry & Exit System
• Buy and sell arrows appear on valid momentum + trend alignment.
• Exit markers signal early trend weakening before full reversal.
• Arrows and labels are visually separated to reduce chart clutter.
4. Alerts (Fully Integrated)

Dynamic Trade Signal Validator (DTSV)The Dynamic Trade Signal Validator (DTSV) is designed to filter false trade signals while generating reliable, frequent trade opportunities. False signals, which lead to unprofitable trades, often occur in choppy or low-momentum markets. The DTSV combines Hull Moving Average (HMA) crossovers, Average True Range (ATR) breakout confirmation, and MACD histogram momentum filtering to ensure signals align with trend, volatility, and momentum, making it ideal for day trading or swing trading across assets like stocks, forex, or cryptocurrencies.
How It Works
The DTSV uses three components to validate trade signals, balancing frequency and reliability:
HMA Crossover for Trend Direction:
Two HMAs (default: 9-period fast, 21-period slow) detect trend changes. A buy signal triggers when the fast HMA crosses above the slow HMA (bullish), and a sell signal when it crosses below (bearish). HMAs reduce lag compared to traditional MAs, enabling more responsive trend detection.
ATR Breakout Confirmation:
The 14-period ATR ensures significant price movement by requiring the bar’s range (high minus low) to exceed the ATR multiplied by 1.0 (adjustable). This confirms volatility, reducing false signals in stagnant markets.
MACD Histogram Momentum Filter:
The MACD (default: 12, 26, 9) histogram confirms momentum. Buy signals require a positive histogram (bullish momentum), and sell signals need a negative histogram (bearish momentum), ensuring directional strength.
Signal Generation
Buy signals (green triangles below bars) occur when a bullish HMA crossover, ATR breakout, and positive MACD histogram align. Sell signals (red triangles above bars) require a bearish crossover, ATR breakout, and negative histogram. This triple confirmation minimizes false trades while maintaining frequent signals.
Smart Trend Lines [The_lurker]
Smart Trend Lines
A multi-level trend classifier that detects bullish and bearish conditions using a methodology based on drawing trend lines—main, intermediate, and short-term—by identifying peaks and troughs. The tool highlights trend strength by applying filters such as the Average Directional Index (ADX) (A), Relative Strength Index (RSI) (R), and Volume (V), making it easier to interpret trend strength. The filter markers (V, A, R) in the Smart Trend Lines indicator are powerful tools for assessing the reliability of breakouts. Breakouts containing are the most reliable, as they indicate strong volume support, trend strength, and favorable momentum. Breakouts with partial filters (such as or ) require additional confirmation, while breakouts without filters ( ) should be avoided unless supported by other strong signals. By understanding the meaning of each filter and the market context.
Core Functionality
1. Trend Line Types
The indicator generates three distinct trend line categories, each serving a specific analytical purpose:
Main Trend Lines: These are long-term trend lines designed to capture significant market trends. They are calculated based on pivot points over a user-defined period (default: 50 bars). Main trend lines are ideal for identifying macro-level support and resistance zones.
Mid Trend Lines: These are medium-term trend lines (default: 21 bars) that focus on intermediate price movements. They provide a balance between short-term fluctuations and long-term trends, suitable for swing trading strategies.
Short Trend Lines: These are short-term trend lines (default: 9 bars) that track rapid price changes. They are particularly useful for scalping or day trading, highlighting immediate support and resistance levels.
Each trend line type can be independently enabled or disabled, allowing traders to tailor the indicator to their preferred timeframes.
2. Breakout Detection
The indicator employs a robust breakout detection system that identifies when the price crosses a trend line, signaling a potential trend reversal or continuation. Breakouts are validated using the following filters:
ADX Filter: The Average Directional Index (ADX) measures trend strength. A user-defined threshold (default: 20) ensures that breakouts occur during strong trends, reducing false signals in range-bound markets.
RSI Filter: The Relative Strength Index (RSI) identifies overbought or oversold conditions. Breakouts are filtered based on RSI thresholds (default: 65 for overbought, 35 for oversold) to avoid signals in extreme market conditions.
Volume Filter: Breakouts are confirmed only when trading volume exceeds a moving average (default: 20 bars) and aligns with the breakout direction (e.g., higher volume on bullish breakouts when the candle closes higher).
Breakout events are marked with labels on the chart, indicating the type of trend line broken (Main, Mid, or Short) and the filters satisfied (Volume, ADX, RSI). Alerts are triggered for each breakout, providing real-time notifications.
3. Customization Options
The indicator offers extensive customization through input settings, organized into logical groups for ease of use:
Main Trend Line Settings
Length: Defines the number of bars used to calculate pivot points (default: 50).
Bullish Color: Color for upward-sloping (bullish) main trend lines (default: green).
Bearish Color: Color for downward-sloping (bearish) main trend lines (default: red).
Style: Line style options include solid, dashed, or dotted (default: solid).
Mid Trend Line Settings
Length: Number of bars for mid-term pivot points (default: 21).
Show/Hide: Toggle visibility of mid trend lines (default: enabled).
Bullish Color: Color for bullish mid trend lines (default: lime).
Bearish Color: Color for bearish mid trend lines (default: maroon).
Style: Line style (default: dashed).
Short Trend Line Settings
Length: Number of bars for short-term pivot points (default: 9).
Show/Hide: Toggle visibility of short trend lines (default: enabled).
Bullish Color: Color for bullish short trend lines (default: teal).
Bearish Color: Color for bearish short trend lines (default: purple).
Style: Line style (default: dotted).
General Display Settings
Break Check Price: Selects the price type for breakout detection (Close, High, or Low; default: Close).
Show Previous Trendlines: Option to display historical main trend lines (default: disabled).
Label Size: Size of breakout labels (Tiny, Small, Normal, Large, Huge; default: Small).
Filter Settings
ADX Threshold: Minimum ADX value for trend strength confirmation (default: 25).
Volume MA Period: Period for the volume moving average (default: 20).
RSI Filter: Enable/disable RSI filtering (default: enabled).
RSI Upper Threshold: Upper RSI limit for overbought conditions (default: 65).
RSI Lower Threshold: Lower RSI limit for oversold conditions (default: 35).
4. Technical Calculations
The indicator relies on several technical calculations to ensure accuracy:
Pivot Points: Pivot highs and lows are detected using the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions, with separate lengths for Main, Mid, and Short trend lines.
Slope Calculation: The slope of each trend line is calculated as the change in price divided by the change in bar index between two pivot points.
ADX Calculation: ADX is computed using a 14-period Directional Movement Index (DMI), with smoothing over 14 bars.
RSI Calculation: RSI is calculated over a 14-period lookback using the ta.rsi function.
Volume Moving Average: A simple moving average (SMA) of volume is used to determine if current volume exceeds the average.
5. Strict Mode Validation
To ensure the reliability of trend lines, the indicator employs a strict mode check:
For bearish trend lines, all prices between pivot points must remain below the projected trend line.
For bullish trend lines, all prices must remain above the projected trend line.
Post-pivot break checks ensure that no breakouts occur between pivot points, enhancing the validity of the trend line.
6. Trend Line Extension
Trend lines are dynamically extended forward until a breakout occurs. The extension logic:
Projects the trend line using the calculated slope.
Continuously validates the extension using strict mode checks.
Stops extension upon a breakout, fixing the trend line at the breakout point.
7. Alerts and Labels
Labels: Breakout labels are placed above (for bearish breakouts) or below (for bullish breakouts) the price bar. Labels include:
A prefix indicating the trend line type (B for Main, M for Mid, S for Short).
A suffix showing satisfied filters (e.g., for Volume, ADX, and RSI).
Alerts: Each breakout triggers a one-time alert per bar close, with a descriptive message indicating the trend line type and filters met.
Detailed Code Breakdown
1. Initialization and Inputs
The script begins by defining the indicator with indicator('Smart Trend Lines ', overlay = true), ensuring it overlays on the price chart. Input settings are grouped into categories (Main, Mid, Short, General Display, Filters) for user convenience. Each input includes a tooltip in both English and Arabic, enhancing accessibility.
2. Technical Indicator Calculations
Volume MA: Calculated using ta.sma(volume, volPeriod) to compare current volume against the average.
ADX: Computed using custom dirmov and adx functions, which calculate the Directional Movement Index and smooth it over 14 periods.
RSI: Calculated with ta.rsi(close, rsiPeriod) over 14 periods.
Price Selection: The priceToCheck function selects the price type (Close, High, or Low) for breakout detection.
3. Pivot Detection
Pivot points are detected using ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow for each trend line type. The lookback period is set to the respective trend line length (e.g., 50 for Main, 21 for Mid, 9 for Short).
4. Trend Line Logic
For each trend line type (Main, Mid, Short):
Bearish Trend Lines: Identified when two consecutive pivot highs form a downward slope. The script validates the trend line using strict mode and post-pivot break checks.
Bullish Trend Lines: Identified when two consecutive pivot lows form an upward slope, with similar validation.
Trend lines are drawn using line.new, with separate lines for the initial segment (between pivots) and the extended segment (from the second pivot forward).
5. Breakout Detection and Labeling
Breakouts are detected when the selected price crosses the trend line level. The script checks:
Volume conditions (above average and aligned with candle direction).
ADX condition (above threshold).
RSI condition (within thresholds if enabled). Labels are created with label.new, and alerts are triggered with alert.
6. Trend Line Extension
The extendTrendline function dynamically updates the trend line’s endpoint unless a breakout occurs. It uses strict mode checks to ensure the trend line remains valid.
7. Previous Trend Lines
If enabled, previous main trend lines are stored in arrays (previousBearishStartLines, previousBullishTrendLines, etc.) and displayed on the chart, providing historical context.

Zero Lag MTF Moving Average by CoffeeshopCryptoBased on Moving Average Types supplied by @TradingView www.tradingview.com
Ideas and code enhanced to show higher timeframe by @CoffeeShopCrypto
It’s time to take the guesswork out of moving averages and multiple timeframes when day trading. Moving averages are a cornerstone of many trading strategies, often viewed as dynamic support and resistance levels. Traders rely on these levels to anticipate price reactions, whether it’s a bounce in a trending market or a reversal in a ranging one. Additionally, the direction and alignment of multi timeframe moving averages—whether they’re moving in the same direction or diverging—provide critical clues about market momentum and potential reversals. However, the traditional higher timeframe moving average indicators force traders to wait for higher timeframe candles to close, creating lag and missed opportunities.
The Old Way
For example: If you are on a 5 minute chart and you want to observe the location and direction of a 30 minute chart Moving Average, you'll need to wait for a total of 6 candles to close, and again every 6 candles after that. This only creates more lag.
The New Way
Now there is no waiting for high timeframe session candles to close. No matter what timeframe Moving Average you want to know about, this indicator will show you its location on your current chart at any time in real time.
For those who prefer Bollinger Bands, this indicator adds a whole new dimension to your strategy. Traders often wait for price action to break outside the lower time frame Bollinger bands before considering a trade, while still seeking key support or resistance levels beyond them. But if you don't know the position of your higher time frame Bollinger, you could be trading into a trap. With Zero Lag Multi Timeframe Moving Average, you can view both your current and higher timeframe Bollinger Bands simultaneously with zero waiting. This lets you instantly see when price action is traveling between the bands of either timeframe or breaking through both—indicating a strong trend in that direction. Additionally, when both sets of Bollinger Bands overlap at the same price levels, it highlights areas of strong consolidation and ranging conditions, giving you a clear picture of market dynamics. This is a key element in price action that tells you there is currently no direction to the market and both the current and higher time frames are flat.
Enter Zero Lag Multi Timeframe Moving Average—the ultimate tool for real-time higher timeframe moving averages and Bollinger Bands. This innovative indicator eliminates the delay, delivering instant, precise values for higher timeframe averages and bands, even on open candles. Seamlessly combining current and higher timeframe data, it allows traders to identify key moments where moving averages or Bollinger Bands align or diverge, signaling market conditions. Whether you’re gauging the strength of a trend, pinpointing potential reversals, or identifying consolidation zones, Zero Lag Multi Timeframe Moving Average gives you the clarity needed to make better trading decisions according to market conditions.
Why is this "Mashup" of moving averages different and important?
Honestly its really about the calculation thats imported through the "import library" function.
Heres what it does:
The ZLMTF-MA is designed to help traders easily see where higher timeframe moving averages and Bollinger Bands are—without needing to switch chart timeframes or wait for those larger candles to close. It works by adjusting common moving average types like SMA, EMA, and VWMA to show what they would look like if they were based on a higher timeframe, right on your current chart. This helps users stay focused on their main timeframe while still having a clear view of the bigger picture, making it easier to spot trend direction, key support and resistance levels, and overall market structure. The goal is to keep things simple, fast, and more visually informative for everyday traders.
Bollinger Bands
When working with Bollinger Bands, a common strategy is to take the trades once price action has escaped through the top or bottom of your current Bollinger Band.
A false breakout occurs when both Bollinger Bands are not moving in the same direction as eachother or when they are overlapping.
Moving Averages as Support and Resistance:
Traders who use Moving Averages as support or resistance, looking for rejections or failures of these areas can now see multiple timeframe price action instantly and simultaneously.

Higher Timeframe Ranging-
When price action breaks through a current moving average headed toward a higher timeframe moving average, trades are taken with caution if the moving averages are converging.
Price Action Scenario 2:
Strong Trending Market -
If the moving averages are in the same direction, and your price action is now leading the low timeframe moving average, you have re-entered a strong trend.
Price Action Scenario 3:
High Timeframe Rejections -
If you have a rejection of a higher timeframe moving average, and your both averages are still diverging, this is the end of a pullback as you re-enter a strong trend in the original direction
Price Action Scenario 4:
Trend Reversals -
If you close beyond both the low and high timeframe moving averages, you can consider that price action is strong enough to change direction here and you should prepare for trade setups in the opposite direction of the previous.
HTF MA Label Information:
Even if your high timeframe moving average is turned off, you can still see this label.
It gives you a quick reminder of what high timeframe settings you have used to see MA values.
Vietnamese Market Structure With CountersThis indicator is designed to track Market Structure with Swing-Low Breakdowns and Swing-High Breakups specifically tailored for the Vietnamese stock market, though it can be applied elsewhere too. By default, it uses a 10-period EMA to dynamically detect key turning points in price action and count significant breakdowns or breakups from previous swing levels.
As an open source, you can modify the source code to match your needs.
What it does:
Detects when price breaks below previous swing lows or above previous swing highs.
Plots swing levels for both highs and lows.
Displays labeled counters on the chart to show how many consecutive breakdowns or breakups have occurred.
Helps traders identify trend shifts and possible exhaustion in moves.
Why it's useful:
This tool is great for visually tracking market momentum and structure changes — especially in trending or volatile environments. It emphasizes structure over indicators, helping you understand price behavior in a simplified, intuitive way.

Bitcoin Impact AnalyzerSummary of the "Bitcoin Impact Analyzer" script, the adjustments users can make, and an explanation of what the chart and table represent:
Script Summary:
The "Bitcoin Impact Analyzer" script is designed to help traders and analysts understand the relationship between a chosen altcoin and Bitcoin (BTC). It does this by:
Fetching price data for the specified altcoin and Bitcoin.
Calculating several key comparative metrics:
Normalized Prices: Shows the percentage performance of both assets from a common starting point.
Price Correlation: Measures how similarly the two assets' prices move over a defined period.
Beta: Indicates the altcoin's volatility relative to Bitcoin.
Altcoin/BTC Ratio: Shows the altcoin's value expressed in Bitcoin.
Fetching and displaying Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D) data.
Visualizing these metrics on the chart as distinct plots.
Displaying the current values of these key metrics in a data table on the chart for quick reference.
The script aims to provide insights into whether an altcoin is outperforming or underperforming Bitcoin, how closely its price movements are tied to Bitcoin's, and its relative volatility.
User Adjustments:
Users can customize the script's behavior through several input settings:
Symbol Inputs:
Altcoin Symbol: Users can enter the ticker symbol for any altcoin they wish to analyze (e.g., BINANCE:ETHUSDT, KUCOIN:SOLUSDT).
Bitcoin Reference Symbol: Users can specify the Bitcoin pair to use as a reference, though BINANCE:BTCUSDT is a common default.
Lookback for Correlation/Beta:
Lookback Period: This integer value (default 50 periods) determines how many past candles are used to calculate the price correlation and beta.
A shorter lookback makes the metrics more sensitive to recent price action.
A longer lookback provides a smoother, more stable indication of the longer-term relationship.
Plot Visibility Options:
Users can toggle on or off the display of each individual plot on the chart:
Normalized BTC & Altcoin Prices
Altcoin/BTC Ratio
Correlation Plot
Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D)
Beta Plot
This allows users to focus on specific metrics and reduce chart clutter.
What the Chart Represents:
The chart visually displays the historical trends and relationships of the selected metrics:
Normalized Prices Plot: Two lines (typically orange for BTC, blue for the altcoin) show the percentage growth of each asset from the start of the loaded chart data (or the first available data point for each symbol). This makes it easy to see which asset has performed better over time on a relative basis.
Correlation Plot: A single line (purple) oscillates between -1 and +1.
Values near +1 indicate a strong positive correlation (altcoin and BTC prices tend to move in the same direction).
Values near -1 indicate a strong negative correlation (they tend to move in opposite directions).
Values near 0 indicate little to no linear relationship.
Lines at +0.7 and -0.7 are often plotted as thresholds for "strong" correlation.
Beta Plot (if enabled): A single line (teal) shows the altcoin's volatility relative to BTC.
A Beta of 1 (often marked by a dashed line) means the altcoin has, on average, the same volatility as BTC.
Beta > 1 suggests the altcoin is more volatile than BTC (moves by a larger percentage for a given BTC move).
Beta < 1 suggests the altcoin is less volatile than BTC.
Bitcoin Dominance Plot: An area plot (gray) shows the percentage of the total cryptocurrency market capitalization that Bitcoin holds. This helps understand broader market sentiment and capital flows.
Altcoin/BTC Ratio Plot: A line (fuchsia) shows the price of the altcoin denominated in BTC.
An upward trend means the altcoin is gaining value against Bitcoin (outperforming).
A downward trend means the altcoin is losing value against Bitcoin (underperforming).
What the Table Represents:
The data table, typically located in the bottom-right corner of the chart, provides a snapshot of the current values for the most important calculated metrics. It includes:
Altcoin: The ticker symbol of the analyzed altcoin.
Bitcoin Ref: The ticker symbol of the Bitcoin reference.
Correlation (lookback): The current correlation coefficient between the altcoin and BTC, based on the specified lookback period. The value is color-coded (e.g., green for strong positive, red for strong negative).
Beta (lookback): The current beta value of the altcoin relative to BTC, based on the specified lookback period. The value may be color-coded to highlight significantly high or low volatility.
BTC.D Current: The current Bitcoin Dominance percentage.
ALT/BTC Ratio: The current price of the altcoin expressed in Bitcoin.
The table offers a quick, at-a-glance summary of the present market dynamics between the two assets without needing to interpret the lines on the chart for their exact current values.

Quarterly Theory ICT 05 [TradingFinder] Doubling Theory Signals🔵 Introduction
Doubling Theory is an advanced approach to price action and market structure analysis that uniquely combines time-based analysis with key Smart Money concepts such as SMT (Smart Money Technique), SSMT (Sequential SMT), Liquidity Sweep, and the Quarterly Theory ICT.
By leveraging fractal time structures and precisely identifying liquidity zones, this method aims to reveal institutional activity specifically smart money entry and exit points hidden within price movements.
At its core, the market is divided into two structural phases: Doubling 1 and Doubling 2. Each phase contains four quarters (Q1 through Q4), which follow the logic of the Quarterly Theory: Accumulation, Manipulation (Judas Swing), Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal.
These segments are anchored by the True Open, allowing for precise alignment with cyclical market behavior and providing a deeper structural interpretation of price action.
During Doubling 1, a Sequential SMT (SSMT) Divergence typically forms between two correlated assets. This time-structured divergence occurs between two swing points positioned in separate quarters (e.g., Q1 and Q2), where one asset breaks a significant low or high, while the second asset fails to confirm it. This lack of confirmation—especially when aligned with the Manipulation and Accumulation phases—often signals early smart money involvement.
Following this, the highest and lowest price points from Doubling 1 are designated as liquidity zones. As the market transitions into Doubling 2, it commonly returns to these zones in a calculated move known as a Liquidity Sweep—a sharp, engineered spike intended to trigger stop orders and pending positions. This sweep, often orchestrated by institutional players, facilitates entry into large positions with minimal slippage.
Bullish :
Bearish :
🔵 How to Use
Applying Doubling Theory requires a simultaneous understanding of temporal structure and inter-asset behavioral divergence. The method unfolds over two main phases—Doubling 1 and Doubling 2—each divided into four quarters (Q1 to Q4).
The first phase focuses on identifying a Sequential SMT (SSMT) divergence, which forms when two correlated assets (e.g., EURUSD and GBPUSD, or NQ and ES) react differently to key price levels across distinct quarters. For example, one asset may break a previous low while the other maintains structure. This misalignment—especially in Q2, the Manipulation phase—often indicates early smart money accumulation or distribution.
Once this divergence is observed, the extreme highs and lows of Doubling 1 are marked as liquidity zones. In Doubling 2, the market gravitates back toward these zones, executing a Liquidity Sweep.
This move is deliberate—designed to activate clustered stop-loss and pending orders and to exploit pockets of resting liquidity. These sweeps are typically driven by institutional forces looking to absorb liquidity and position themselves ahead of the next major price move.
The key to execution lies in the fact that, during the sweep in Doubling 2, a classic SMT divergence should also appear between the two assets. This indicates a weakening of the previous trend and adds an extra layer of confirmation.
🟣 Bullish Doubling Theory
In the bullish scenario, Doubling 1 begins with a bullish SSMT divergence, where one asset forms a lower low while the other maintains its structure. This divergence signals weakening bearish momentum and possible smart money accumulation. In Doubling 2, the market returns to the previous low and sweeps the liquidity zone—breaking below it on one asset, while the second fails to confirm, forming a bullish SMT divergence.
f this move is followed by a bullish PSP and a clear market structure break (MSB), a long entry is triggered. The stop-loss is placed just below the swept liquidity zone, while the target is set in the premium zone, anticipating a move driven by institutional buyers.
🟣 Bearish Doubling Theory
The bearish scenario follows the same structure in reverse. In Doubling 1, a bearish SSMT divergence occurs when one asset prints a higher high while the other fails to do so. This suggests distribution and weakening buying pressure. Then, in Doubling 2, the market returns to the previous high and executes a liquidity sweep, targeting trapped buyers.
A bearish SMT divergence appears, confirming the move, followed by a bearish PSP on the lower timeframe. A short position is initiated after a confirmed MSB, with the stop-loss placed

🔵 Conclusion
Doubling Theory is a powerful and structured framework within the realm of Smart Money Concepts and ICT methodology, enabling traders to detect high-probability reversal points with precision. By integrating SSMT, SMT, Liquidity Sweeps, and the Quarterly Theory into a unified system, this approach shifts the focus from reactive trading to anticipatory analysis—anchored in time, structure, and liquidity.
What makes Doubling Theory stand out is its logical synergy of time cycles, behavioral divergence, liquidity targeting, and institutional confirmation. In both bullish and bearish scenarios, it provides clearly defined entry and exit strategies, allowing traders to engage the market with confidence, controlled risk, and deeper insight into the mechanics of price manipulation and smart money footprints.
Candle Rating (1–5)This “Candle Rating (1–5)” indicator measures where each bar’s close sits within its own high-low range and assigns a simple strength score:
Range Calculation
It computes the candle’s total range (high − low) and finds the close’s position as a percentage of that range (0 = close at low, 1 = close at high).
Five-Point Rating
1 (Strong Buy): Close in the top 20% of the range
2 (Moderate Buy): 60–80%
3 (Neutral): 40–60%
4 (Moderate Sell): 20–40%
5 (Strong Sell): Bottom 20%
Visual Feedback
It plots the numeric rating above each bar (colored green → red), giving you an at-a-glance read of candle momentum and potential reversal strength across any timeframe.
Dealing rangeHi all!
This indicator will show you the current dealing range. The concept of dealing range comes from the inner circle trader (ICT) and gives you a range between an established swing high and an established swing low (the length of these pivots can be changed in settings parameter Length and defaults to 5/2 (left/right)). These swing points must have taken out liquidity to be considered "established". The liquidity that must be grabbed by the swing point has to be a pivot of left length of 1 and a right length of 1.
The dealing range that's created should be used in conjunction with market structure. This could be done through scripts (maybe the Market structure script that I published ()) or manually. It's a common approach to look for long opportunities when the trend is bullish and price is currently in the discount zone of the dealing range. If the trend is bearish then short opportunities are presented when the price is currently in the premium zone of the dealing range.
The zones within the dealing range are premium and discount that are split on the 50% level of the dealing range. These zones can be split into 3 zone with a Fair price (also called Fair value ) zone in between premium and discount. This makes the premium zone to be in the upper third of the dealing range, fair price in the middle third and discount in the lower third. This can be enabled in the settings through the Fair price parameter.
Enabled:
You can choose to enable/disable the visualisation of liquidity grabs and the External liquidity available above and below the swing points that created the dealing range.
Enabled:
Disabled:
Enabled on a higher timeframe (will display a box of the liquidity grab price instead of a label):
This dealing range is configurable to be created by a higher timeframe then the visible charts. Use the setting Higher timeframe to change this.
You can force candles to be closed (for liquidity and swing points). Please note that if you use a higher timeframe then the visible charts the candles must be closed on this timeframe.
Lastly you can also change the transparency of liquidity grabs and external liquidity outside of the dealing range. Use the Transparency setting to change this (a lower value will lead to stronger visuals).
If you have any input or suggestions on future features or bugs, don't hesitate to let me know!
Best of trading luck!
Parsifal.Swing.TrendScoreThe Parsifal.Swing.TrendScore indicator is a module within the Parsifal Swing Suite, which includes a set of swing indicators such as:
• Parsifal Swing TrendScore
• Parsifal Swing Composite
• Parsifal Swing RSI
• Parsifal Swing Flow
Each module serves as an indicator facilitating judgment of the current swing state in the underlying market.
________________________________________
Background
Market movements typically follow a time-varying trend channel within which prices oscillate. These oscillations—or swings—within the trend are inherently tradable.
They can be approached:
• One-sidedly, aligning with the trend (generally safer), or
• Two-sidedly, aiming to profit from mean reversions as well.
Note: Mean reversions in strong trends often manifest as sideways consolidations, making one-sided trades more stable.
________________________________________
The Parsifal Swing Suite
The modules aim to provide additional insights into the swing state within a trend and offer various trigger points to assist with entry decisions.
All modules in the suite act as weak oscillators, meaning they fluctuate within a range but are not bounded like true oscillators (e.g., RSI, which is constrained between 0% and 100%).
________________________________________
The Parsifal.Swing.TrendScore – Specifics
The Parsifal.Swing.TrendScore module combines short-term trend data with information about the current swing state, derived from raw price data and classical technical indicators. It provides an indication of how well the short-term trend aligns with the prevailing swing, based on recent market behavior.
________________________________________
How Swing.TrendScore Works
The Swing.TrendScore calculates a swing score by collecting data within a bin (i.e., a single candle or time bucket) that signals an upside or downside swing. These signals are then aggregated together with insights from classical swing indicators.
Additionally, it calculates a short-term trend score using core technical signals, including:
• The Z-score of the price's distance from various EMAs
• The slope of EMAs
• Other trend-strength signals from additional technical indicators
These two components—the swing score and the trend score—are then combined to form the Swing.TrendScore indicator, which evaluates the short-term trend in context with swing behavior.
________________________________________
How to Interpret Swing.TrendScore
The trend component enhances Swing.TrendScore’s ability to provide stronger signals when the short-term trend and swing state align.
It can also override the swing score; for example, even if a mean reversion appears to be forming, a dominant short-term trend may still control the market behavior.
This makes Swing.TrendScore particularly valuable for:
• Short-term trend-following strategies
• Medium-term swing trading
Unlike typical swing indicators, Swing.TrendScore is designed to respond more to medium-term swings rather than short-lived fluctuations.
________________________________________
Behavior and Chart Representation
The Swing.TrendScore indicator fluctuates within a range, as most of its components are range-bound (though Z-score components may technically extend beyond).
• Historically high or low values may suggest overbought or oversold conditions
• The chart displays:
o A fast curve (orange)
o A slow curve (white)
o A shaded background representing the market state
• Extreme values followed by curve reversals may signal a developing mean reversion
________________________________________
TrendScore Background Value
The Background Value reflects the combined state of the short-term trend and swing:
• > 0 (shaded green) → Bullish mode: swing and short-term trend both upward
• < 0 (shaded red) → Bearish mode: swing and short-term trend both downward
• The absolute value represents the confidence level in the market mode
Notably, the Background Value can remain positive during short downswings if the short-term trend remains bullish—and vice versa.
________________________________________
How to Use the Parsifal.Swing.TrendScore
Several change points can act as entry triggers or aids:
• Fast Trigger: change in slope of the fast signal curve
• Trigger: fast line crosses slow line or the slope of the slow signal changes
• Slow Trigger: change in sign of the Background Value
Examples of these trigger points are illustrated in the accompanying chart.
Additionally, market highs and lows aligning with the swing indicator values may serve as pivot points in the evolving price process.
________________________________________
As always, this indicator should be used in conjunction with other tools and market context in live trading.
While it provides valuable insight and potential entry points, it does not predict future price action.
Instead, it reflects recent tendencies and should be used judiciously.
________________________________________
Extensions
The aggregation of information—whether derived from bins or technical indicators—is currently performed via simple averaging. However, this can be modified using alternative weighting schemes, based on:
• Historical performance
• Relevance of the data
• Specific market conditions
Smoothing periods used in calculations are also modifiable. In general, the EMAs applied for smoothing can be extended to reflect expectations based on relevance-weighted probability measures.
Since EMAs inherently give more weight to recent data, this allows for adaptive smoothing.
Additionally, EMAs may be further extended to incorporate negative weights, akin to wavelet transform techniques.
Camarilla Pivot Plays█ OVERVIEW
This indicator implements the Camarilla Pivot Points levels and a system for suggesting particular plays. It only calculates and shows the 3rd, 4th, and 6th levels, as these are the only ones used by the system. In total, there are 12 possible plays, grouped into two groups of six. The algorithm constantly evaluates conditions for entering and exiting the plays and indicates them in real time, also triggering user-configurable alerts.
█ CREDITS
The Camarilla pivot plays are defined in a strategy developed by Thor Young, and the whole system is explained in his book "A Complete Day Trading System" . The indicator is published with his permission, and he is a user of it. The book is not necessary in order to understand and use the indicator; this description contains sufficient information to use it effectively.
█ FEATURES
Automatically draws plays, suggesting an entry, stop-loss, and maximum target
User can set alerts on chosen ticker to call these plays, even when not currently viewing them
Highly configurable via many options
Works for US/European stocks and US futures (at least)
Works correctly on both RTH and ETH charts
Automatically switches between RTH and ETH data
Optionally also shows the "other" set of pivots (RTH vs ETH data)
Configurable behaviour in the pre-market, not active in the post-market
Configurable sensitivity of the play detection algorithm
Can also show weekly and monthly Camarilla pivots
Well-documented options tooltips
Sensible defaults which are suitable for immediate use
Well-documented and high-quality open-source code for those who are interested
█ HOW TO USE
The defaults work well; at a minimum, just add the indicator and watch the plays being called. To avoid having to watch securities, by selecting the three dots next to the indicator name, you can set an alert on the indicator and choose to be alerted on play entry or exit events—or both. The following diagram shows several plays activated in the past (with the "Show past plays" option selected).
By default, the indicator draws plays 5 days back; this can be changed up to 20 days. The labels can be shifted left/right using the "label offset" option to avoid overlapping with other labels in this indicator or those of another indicator.
An information box at the top-right of the chart shows:
The data currently in use for the main pivots. This can switch in the pre-market if the H/L range exceeds the previous day's H/L, and if it does, you will see that switch at the time that it happens
Whether the current day's pivots are in a higher or lower range compared to the previous day's. This is based on the RTH close, so large moves in the post-market won't be reflected (there is an advanced option to change this)
The width of the value relationship in the current day compared to the previous day
The currently active play. If multiple plays are active in parallel, only the last activated one is shown
The resistance pivots are all drawn in the same colour (red by default), as are the support pivots (green by default). You can change the resistance and support colours, but it is not possible to have different colours for different levels of the same kind. Plays will always use the correct colour, drawing over the pivots. For example, R4 is red by default, but if a play treats R4 as a support, then the play will draw a green line (by default) over the red R4 line, thereby hiding it while the play is active.
There are a few advanced parameters; leave these as default unless you really know what they do. Please note the script is complicated—it does a lot. You might need to wait a few seconds while it (re)calculates on new tickers or when changing options. Give it time when first loading or changing options!
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator is focused around daily Camarilla pivots and implements 12 possible plays: 6 when in a higher range, 6 when in a lower range. The plays are labelled by two letters—the first indicates the range, the second indicates the play—as shown in this diagram:
The pivots can be calculated using only RTH (Regular Trading Hours) data, or ETH (Extended Trading Hours) data, which includes the pre-market and post-market. The indicator implements logic to automatically choose the correct data, based on the rules defined by the strategy. This is user-overridable. With the default options, ETH will be used when the H/L range in the previous day's post-market or current day's pre-market exceeds that of the previous day's regular market. In auto mode, the chosen pivots are considered the main pivots for that day and are the ones used for play evaluation. The "other" pivots can also be shown—"other" here meaning using ETH data when the main pivots use RTH data, and vice versa.
When displaying plays in the pre-market, since the RTH open is not yet known (and that value is needed to evaluate play pre-conditions), the pre-market open is used as a proxy for the RTH open. After the regular market opens, the correct RTH open is used to evaluate play conditions.
█ NOTE FOR FUTURES
Futures always use full ETH data in auto mode. Users may, however, wish to use the option "Always use RTH close," which uses the 3 p.m. Central Time (CME/Chicago) as a basis for the close in the pivot calculations (instead of the 4 p.m. actual close).
Futures don't officially have a pre-market or post-market like equities. Let's take ES on CME as an example (CME is in Chicago, so all times are Central Time, i.e., 1 hour behind Eastern Time). It trades from 17:00 Sunday to 16:00 Friday, with a daily pause between 16:00 and 17:00. However, most of the trading activity is done between 08:30 and 15:00 (Central), which you can tell from the volume spikes at those times, and this coincides with NYSE/NASDAQ regular hours (09:30–16:00 Eastern). So we define a pseudo-pre-market from 17:00 the previous day to 08:30 on the current day, then a pseudo-regular market from 08:30 to 15:00, then a pseudo-post-market from 15:00 to 16:00.
The indicator then works exactly the same as with equities—all the options behave the same, just with different session times defined for the pre-, regular, and post-market, with "RTH" meaning just the regular market and "ETH" meaning all three. The only difference from equities is that the auto calculation mode always uses ETH instead of switching based on ETH range compared to RTH range. This is so users who just leave all the defaults are not confused by auto-switching of the calculation mode; normally you'll want the pivots based on all the (ETH) data. However, both "Force RTH" and "Use RTH close with ETH data" work the same as with equities—so if, in the calculations, you really want to only use RTH data, or use all ETH H/L data but use the RTH close (at 15:00), you can.
█ LIMITATIONS
The pivots are very close to those shown in DAS Trader Pro. They are not to-the-cent exact, but within a few cents. The reasons are:
TradingView uses real-time data from CBOE One, so doesn't have access to full exchange data (unless you pay for it in TradingView), and
the close/high/low are taken from the intraday timeframe you are currently viewing, not daily data—which are very close, but often not exactly the same. For example, the high on the daily timeframe may differ slightly from the daily high you'll see on an intraday timeframe.
I have occasionally seen larger than a few cents differences in the pivots between these and DAS Trader Pro—this is always due to differences in data, for example a big spike in the data in TradingView but not in DAS Trader Pro, or vice versa. The more traded the stock is, the less the difference tends to be. Highly traded stocks are usually within a few cents. Less traded stocks may be more (for example, 30¢ difference in R4 is the highest I've seen). If it bothers you, official NYSE/NASDAQ data in TradingView is quite inexpensive (but even that doesn't make the 8am candle identical).
The 6th Camarilla level does not have a standard definition and may not match the level shown on other platforms. It does match the definition used by DAS Trader Pro.
The indicator is an intraday indicator (despite also being able to show weekly and monthly pivots on an intraday chart). It deactivates on a daily timeframe and higher. It is untested on sub-minute timeframes; you may encounter runtime errors on these due to various historical data referencing issues. Also, the play detection algorithm would likely be unpredictable on sub-minute timeframes. Therefore, sub-minute timeframes are formally unsupported.
The indicator was developed and tested for US/European stocks and US futures. It may or may not work as intended for stocks and futures in different locations. It does not work for other security types (e.g., crypto), where I have no evidence that the strategy has any relevance.
Volumetric Pivot Echo🔮 Volumetric Pivot Echo (VPE)
Future Price Projection Zones with Confidence Scoring
📘 Overview
The Volumetric Pivot Echo (VPE) is a next-generation leading indicator that identifies high-volume reversal points and echoes their price + time behavior into the future — giving you a visual forecast box that includes a confidence score, price range, and duration estimate.
It’s designed for swing and options traders who want forward guidance based on real structure, not just reactive signals.
⚙️ How It Works
Pivot Detection – Finds pivot highs/lows based on configurable bar structure.
Volume Confirmation – Only confirms pivots backed by strong volume (e.g., 1.5× average).
Echo Logic – Measures the price move and time it took to reach the pivot.
ATR Scaling – Adjusts projections based on current market volatility.
Confidence Score – Rates each projection (0–100%) based on structure match, volatility, and direction alignment.

A forward-drawn rectangle from the current bar to the estimated future zone. The box's size and duration mirror the last valid momentum leg.
Box Label Text:
🔹 Range (projected move size)
⏱️ Duration (bars expected)
✅ Confidence %
VPH/VPL Markers:
Pivot highs and lows confirmed by volume, marked with “VPH” or “VPL”.
🎯 How to Trade with It
Use the box as a target zone for directional trades.
If price enters a box with >85% confidence, consider it a high-quality path projection.
Use with support/resistance confluence or entry systems.
Works especially well for swing trading, breakout setups, or options targeting.
🛠️ Recommended Settings
Box Transparency: Set Projection Up/Down Color to 90 (10% visible).
Text Color: Set to white for readability.
Volume Multiplier: Default 1.5x, increase in choppy markets.
Projection Duration: Start with 1.0x echo multiplier and fine-tune.
⏳ Timeframes & Accuracy
Timeframe Confidence Zones Most Reliable
15m – 1h Use 70–85% confidence scores
1h – 4h Sweet spot for balanced signals
1D – 1W Strongest historical echo tracking (>85% ideal)
✅ Key Features
Forward-looking, non-repainting logic
Clear visual projections — no guesswork
Confidence scoring built-in
ATR-adjusted — adapts to volatility
Works on any asset (stocks, crypto, FX)
🧠 Why It’s Unique
This is not a lagging oscillator or classic trend-following tool.
It’s a leading structure projection model — combining pivot behavior, volume intensity, and market volatility to sketch forward “echo zones” based on the past.
Ceres Trader Simple Trend & Momentum SignalsCeres Trader – Simple Trend & Momentum Signals
Description:
Cut through chart noise with a lightweight, two-factor signal system that combines a classic trend filter (200 EMA) with momentum confirmation (smoothed RSI as a QQE proxy). This indicator plots clean entry arrows—no background shading, no clutter—so you can trade only in the high-probability regime:
Trend Filter: 200-period exponential moving average
Momentum Filter: RSI(14) smoothed over N bars, offset by 50 to create a zero-line
Long Entry: Price above the 200 EMA and the smoothed RSI crosses up through zero → green up-arrow below bar
Short Entry: Price below the 200 EMA and the smoothed RSI crosses down through zero → red down-arrow above bar
Key Features:
Minimalist display: only the 200 EMA and entry arrows
Customizable inputs: EMA length, RSI length, RSI smoothing period
Ultra-low CPU load: suitable for lower timeframes (e.g. 1 min gold futures)
Yellow label text: for optimal visibility on dark or light chart backgrounds
How to Use:
Add the script to your TradingView chart.
Choose your timeframe and adjust inputs as needed.
Take only the long signals when price is above the EMA, and only the short signals when price is below.
Place stops just beyond the EMA; targets can be measured swings or fixed R-multiples.
Notes:
Designed as a regime-based entry filter—no exits or background fills included.
Feel free to combine with your own stop-loss, take-profit, and money-management rules.
Trade smarter, not harder—let the market tell you only when both trend and momentum align.
