Volume-Confirmed Trend Thrust IndicatorOVERVIEW
This indicator combines trend strength, momentum & volume analysis to generate high-conviction buy and sell signals. It is based on the "Volume Confirmation for a Trend System" (VCTS) by Buff Pelz Dormeier (TASC August 2024), which I have taken the liberty of 'buffing up' (heh!) by swapping out original VPCI component with the ATR-aware Net Accumulation Flow (NAF) indicator derived from Markos Katsanos' VPN indicator (TASC April 2021).
The result is a system that only triggers buy signals when three independent conditions align:
• A strong trend exists (ADX)
• Momentum is bullish (TTI)
• Institutional accumulation is detected (NAF)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
COMPONENTS
█ ADX (Average Directional Index)
Measures trend strength regardless of direction. A reading above 30 indicates a strong trend worth trading. This filter prevents signals during choppy, sideways markets.
█ TTI (Trend Thrust Indicator)
Dormeier's volume-weighted MACD variant that provides momentum direction. Unlike standard MACD, TTI uses Volume-Weighted Moving Averages (VWMA) and applies a volume multiplier that amplifies signals when volume confirms price movement. When TTI crosses above its signal line, momentum is considered bullish.
█ NAF (Net Accumulation Flow)
The key enhancement - in my humble opinion - over the original VCTS. NAF classifies each bar's volume as:
• Accumulation: Price moved UP more than 10% of ATR
• Distribution: Price moved DOWN more than 10% of ATR
• Neutral: Price movement too small to be meaningful (filtered as noise)
NAF then calculates the net flow (Accumulation Volume - Distribution Volume) over a 30-bar lookback period, normalized and smoothed. This provides a cleaner read on whether institutions are accumulating or distributing.
Perceived benefits of NAF:
• ATR-based noise filtering eliminates false readings from small price movements
• Rolling 30-bar accumulation captures sustained institutional activity
• Empirically calibrated thresholds based on 717 stocks / 360,000 observations
• 3-period EMA smoothing reduces whipsaws
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SIGNAL LOGIC
🟢 BUY SIGNAL
All three conditions must be true simultaneously:
1. ADX > 30 (strong trend)
2. TTI > Signal Line (bullish momentum)
3. NAF > 16 (accumulation)
Signals fire on the first bar where all conditions align, preventing repeated signals during sustained bullish periods.
🔴 SELL SIGNAL
Exit when volume flow turns negative:
• NAF < -9 (below neutral zone, indicating distribution).
This indicator retains Dormeier's asymmetric approach (strict entry, quick exit) to help protect profits when institutional support fades.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
NAF THRESHOLD REFERENCE
Based on proprietary empirical calibration (717 stocks, 360K observations):
>= +35 │ Strong Accumulation (P95, ~5% of days)
>= +28 │ Solid Accumulation (P90, ~10% of days)
>= +16 │ Moderate Accumulation (P75) ← Default Buy Threshold
-9 to +16 │ Neutral Zone (~50% of days)
<= -9 │ Below Neutral ← Default Sell Threshold
<= -22 │ Solid Distribution (P10)
<= -29 │ Strong Distribution (P5)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SETTINGS
Setting for all 3 variables (ADX, TTI & NAF), alerts and visual conditional formatting are configurable.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
USAGE TIPS
1. Works best on daily timeframe for swing trading
2. More effective on liquid stocks where volume data is meaningful
3. Consider using NAF threshold of 28 (P90) for higher conviction entries
5. Combine with price action analysis (support/resistance, RS, chart patterns)

Smart Divergence [Reason Edition]Stop trading divergences "in thin air". Start trading structural confluence.
Most divergence indicators fail for one reason: they signal reversals based solely on oscillator math (RSI vs. Price), ignoring the chart's structure. This leads to costly entries against strong trends.
Smart Divergence solves this by applying an Institutional Context Filter. It does not simply alert you of a divergence; it validates the signal against key market structures ("Walls") and—crucially—tells you exactly why the signal appeared directly on the label.
🚀 How It Works: The "Smart Filter" Logic
This script operates on a strict rule: "No Structure, No Signal."
For a Bullish or Bearish divergence to be valid, price must not only diverge from RSI but also physically touch or react to one of four key structural levels:
BB (Bollinger Bands): Rejection due to volatility extension (2.0 StdDev).
KC (Keltner Channels): Rejection due to average range deviation (1.5 ATR).
Pivots (S1/R1): Rejection at standard daily algorithmic levels.
VWAP: Rejection at the institutional average price (Volume Weighted Average Price).
🏷️ Dynamic "Reason" Labels
This is the core feature of this edition. The label on your chart adapts dynamically to show the specific confluence behind the trade.
Examples you will see:
SMART BULL (BB) → The divergence is valid because price hit the Bollinger Band.
SMART BULL (VWAP) → The divergence is valid because price bounced off the VWAP.
SMART BULL (BB VWAP) → High Probability: Price hit the Bollinger Band AND the VWAP simultaneously.
The Logic: The more "Reasons" (acronyms) appear inside the label, the stronger the structural wall, and the higher the probability of a reversal.
🛠️ Settings & Features
🛡️ Smart Filter (Toggle):
ON (Default): Only shows high-quality signals that occur at Support/Resistance zones.
OFF: Shows all raw technical divergences (standard mode).
Alerts Included: Setup custom alerts for "Smart Bull" (Buys) and "Smart Bear" (Sells).
Zero Repainting: Signals are confirmed upon candle close/pivot confirmation.
📋 How to Trade It
Wait for the Label: Do not guess. Wait for the SMART label to appear.
Check the Reason: Look at the text in parenthesis (...).
Single reason (e.g., KC) is a valid setup.
Cluster reasons (e.g., BB S1 VWAP) represent a "Concrete Wall" and are ideal for aggressive entries.
Context: Works best on Intraday timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m) for scalping, and Daily timeframe for Swing Trading bottoms/tops.

Ichimoku With GradingDescription:
This indicator is an enhanced version of the classic Ichimoku Kinko Hyo, designed to provide traders with an objective, quantitative assessment of trend strength. By breaking down the complex Ichimoku system into specific conditions, this script calculates a "Total Score" to help visualize the confluence of bullish or bearish signals.
How It Works
The core of this script is a 7-Point Grading System. Instead of relying on a single crossover, the script evaluates 7 distinct Ichimoku conditions simultaneously.
The Grading Criteria:
Tenkan > Kijun: Checks for the classic TK Cross (1 point if Bullish, -1 if Bearish).
Price vs TK/KJ: Checks if the Close is above both the Tenkan and Kijun (Bullish) or below both (Bearish).
Future Cloud: Analyzes the Kumo (Cloud) projected 26 bars ahead. If Senkou Span A > Senkou Span B, it is bullish.
Chikou Span: The Lagging Span validation. It compares the current Close to the Highs, Lows, and Cloud levels of 26 bars ago to ensure there are no obstacles.
Close > Tenkan: Checks immediate short-term momentum.
Close > Current Senkou Span A: Checks if price is above the current cloud's Span A.
Close > Current Senkou Span B: Checks if price is above the current cloud's Span B.
Total Score & Signals:
Maximum Score (+7): When all 7 conditions are met, a Green Triangle is plotted above the bar, indicating a strong trend confluence.
Minimum Score (-7): When all 7 conditions are negative, a Red Triangle is plotted below the bar.
Neutral/Mixed: Scores between -6 and +6 indicate a mixed trend or consolidation phase.
Dashboard Features
A table is displayed in the top-right corner to provide real-time data:
Score Breakdown: Shows the status of every individual metric (1 or -1).
Total Score: The sum of all metrics.
Distance to Tenkan %: This calculates the percentage distance between the Close and the Tenkan-sen.
Usage: Traders often use the Tenkan-sen as a trailing stop-loss level. This percentage helps gauge how extended the price is from the mean; a high percentage may indicate an overextended move, while a low percentage indicates a tight consolidation.
How to Use Ichimoku Lines
Beyond the grading system, this indicator plots the standard Ichimoku lines, which are powerful tools for price action analysis:
Support & Resistance: The Tenkan-sen (Conversion Line) and Kijun-sen (Base Line) act as dynamic support and resistance levels. In a strong trend, price will often respect the Tenkan-sen. In a moderate trend, it may pull back to the Kijun-sen before continuing.
The Kumo (Cloud): The edges of the current cloud (Senkou Span A and B) act as major support and resistance zones. A thick cloud represents strong S/R, while a thin cloud is easily broken.
Trend Identification: Generally, if the price is above the Cloud, the trend is bullish. If below, it is bearish. If the price is inside the Cloud, the market is considered to be in a noise/ranging zone.

Here you can see the dashboard in action. The grading system helps filter out noise by requiring all conditions to align before generating a signal.
2. Gold (XAUUSD) Example:
An example of a bearish confluence where the score hit -7, triggering a sell signal as the price broke through all Ichimoku support levels.
3. Euro (EURUSD) Mixed State:
This example shows a market in transition. While some metrics are positive (Green), others are negative (Red), resulting in a score of 4. This prevents premature entries during choppy market conditions.
Settings
Lengths: All Ichimoku periods (Tenkan, Kijun, Senkou B, Displacement) are fully customizable in the settings menu to fit your preferred timeframe or trading style (e.g., Doubled settings for crypto).

Gold Projection DivergenceGOLD PROJECTION DIVERGENCE
Oscillator Companion for the Gold Macro Projection Model
OVERVIEW
The Gold Projection Divergence oscillator quantifies how far gold is trading from its projected fair value. While the main indicator shows where gold should be, this oscillator shows how extreme the mispricing is—providing precise timing signals for entries and exits.
HOW IT WORKS
The oscillator calculates the difference between actual gold price and the projected value, then normalizes it as a Z-score . This statistical measure shows how many standard deviations gold is trading away from its projected fair value.
Z > +2 — Gold is 2+ standard deviations above fair value (extremely overvalued)
Z > +1 — Gold is moderately overvalued
Z = 0 — Gold is trading at projected fair value
Z < -1 — Gold is moderately undervalued
Z < -2 — Gold is 2+ standard deviations below fair value (extremely undervalued)
VISUAL ELEMENTS
Histogram — Color-coded divergence magnitude
Yellow Line — Smoothed Z-score
Dashed Lines — +2 and -2 standard deviation levels
Dotted Lines — +1 and -1 standard deviation levels
Triangle Markers — Extreme crossover signals
Circle Markers — Zero-line crossings
HISTOGRAM COLORS
Dark Red — Z > +2 (extreme overvaluation)
Orange — Z between +1 and +2
Light Orange — Z between 0 and +1
Light Green — Z between -1 and 0
Green — Z between -2 and -1
Lime — Z < -2 (extreme undervaluation)
COMPONENT TABLE
The breakdown table shows divergence from each individual factor:

Silver Projection DivergenceSILVER PROJECTION DIVERGENCE
Standardized Fair Value Divergence Oscillator
OVERVIEW
The Silver Projection Divergence oscillator is the companion indicator to the Silver Macro Projection Model. It quantifies the gap between silver's actual price and its projected fair value, displaying this divergence as a standardized z-score. This format makes it easier to identify extreme conditions and time entries/exits based on mean reversion.
HOW IT WORKS
The oscillator converts raw divergence (Actual Silver - Projected Silver) to a z-score by normalizing against its historical distribution:
Z-Score > 0 - Silver trading ABOVE projected value (overvalued)
Z-Score < 0 - Silver trading BELOW projected value (undervalued)
Z-Score > 2 - Extreme condition (2 standard deviations)
VISUAL ELEMENTS
Main Plot
Green line/histogram - Negative divergence (undervalued)
Red line/histogram - Positive divergence (overvalued)
Color intensity increases when divergence is expanding
Reference Lines
+2 sigma / -2 sigma (dashed) - Extreme zones
+1 sigma / -1 sigma (dotted) - Moderate deviation
Zero line - Fair value equilibrium
Signal Markers
Green Triangle (bottom) - Z-score crosses below -2 (STRONG BUY)
Red Triangle (top) - Z-score crosses above +2 (STRONG SELL)
Background
Light red background - Extreme overvaluation (Z > 2)
Light green background - Extreme undervaluation (Z < -2)
SIGNAL INTERPRETATION
Z > +2.0 - Extreme Overvaluation - STRONG SELL / Take profits
Z +1.0 to +2.0 - Moderate Overvaluation - Caution / Reduce exposure
Z -1.0 to +1.0 - Fair Value Range - Neutral / Hold
Z -2.0 to -1.0 - Moderate Undervaluation - Accumulate / Scale in
Z < -2.0 - Extreme Undervaluation - STRONG BUY signal

Adaptive Trend Envelope [BackQuant]Adaptive Trend Envelope
Overview
Adaptive Trend Envelope is a volatility-aware trend-following overlay designed to stay responsive in fast markets while remaining stable during slower conditions. It builds a dynamic trend spine from two exponential moving averages and surrounds it with an adaptive envelope whose width expands and contracts based on realized return volatility. The result is a clean, self-adjusting trend structure that reacts to market conditions instead of relying on fixed parameters.
This indicator is built to answer three core questions directly on the chart:
Is the market trending or neutral?
If trending, in which direction is the dominant pressure?
Where is the dynamic trend boundary that price should respect?
Core trend spine
At the heart of the indicator is a blended trend spine:
A fast EMA captures short-term responsiveness.
A slow EMA captures structural direction.
A volatility-based blend weight dynamically shifts influence between the two.
When short-term volatility is low relative to long-term volatility, the fast EMA has more influence, keeping the trend responsive. When volatility rises, the blend shifts toward the slow EMA, reducing noise and preventing overreaction. This blended output is then smoothed again to form the final trend spine, which acts as the structural backbone of the system.
Volatility-adaptive envelope
The envelope surrounding the trend spine is not based on ATR or fixed percentages. Instead, it is derived from:
Log returns of price.
An exponentially weighted variance estimate.
A configurable multiplier that scales envelope width.
This creates bands that automatically widen during volatile expansions and tighten during compression. The envelope therefore reflects the true statistical behavior of price rather than an arbitrary distance.
Inner hysteresis band
Inside the main envelope, an inner band is constructed using a hysteresis fraction. This inner zone is used to stabilize regime transitions:
It prevents rapid flipping between bullish and bearish states.
It allows trends to persist unless price meaningfully invalidates them.
It reduces whipsaws in sideways conditions.
Trend regime logic
The indicator operates with three regime states:
Bullish
Bearish
Neutral
Regime changes are confirmed using a configurable number of bars outside the adaptive envelope:
A bullish regime is confirmed when price closes above the upper envelope for the required number of bars.
A bearish regime is confirmed when price closes below the lower envelope for the required number of bars.
A trend exits back to neutral when price reverts through the trend spine.
This structure ensures that trends are confirmed by sustained pressure rather than single-bar spikes.
Active trend line
Once a regime is active, the indicator plots a single dominant trend line:
In a bullish regime, the lower envelope becomes the active trend support.
In a bearish regime, the upper envelope becomes the active trend resistance.
In neutral conditions, price itself is used as a placeholder.
This creates a simple, actionable visual reference for trend-following decisions.
Directional energy visualization
The indicator uses layered fills to visualize directional pressure:
Bullish energy fills appear when price holds above the active trend line.
Bearish energy fills appear when price holds below the active trend line.
Opacity gradients communicate strength and persistence rather than binary states.
A subtle “rim” effect is added using ATR-based offsets to give depth and reinforce the active side of the trend without cluttering the chart.
Signals and trend starts
Discrete signals are generated only when a new trend regime begins:
Buy signals appear at the first confirmed transition into a bullish regime.
Sell signals appear at the first confirmed transition into a bearish regime.
Signals are intentionally sparse. They are designed to mark regime shifts, not every pullback or continuation, making them suitable for higher-quality trend entries rather than frequent trading.
Candle coloring
Optional candle coloring reinforces regime context:
Bullish regimes tint candles toward the bullish color.
Bearish regimes tint candles toward the bearish color.
Neutral states remain visually muted.
This allows the chart to communicate trend state even when the envelope itself is partially hidden or de-emphasized.
Alerts
Built-in alerts are provided for key trend events:
Bull trend start.
Bear trend start.
Transition from trend to neutral.
Price crossing the trend spine.
These alerts support hands-off trend monitoring across multiple instruments and timeframes.
How to use it for trend following
Trend identification
Only trade in the direction of the active regime.
Ignore counter-trend signals during confirmed trends.
Entry alignment
Use the first regime signal as a structural entry.
Use pullbacks toward the active trend line as continuation opportunities.
Trend management
As long as price respects the active envelope boundary, the trend remains valid.
A move back through the spine signals loss of trend structure.
Market filtering
Periods where the indicator remains neutral highlight non-trending environments.
This helps avoid forcing trades during chop or compression.
Adaptive Trend Envelope is designed to behave like a living trend structure. Instead of forcing price into static rules, it adapts to volatility, confirms direction through sustained pressure, and presents trend information in a clean, readable form that supports disciplined trend-following workflows.
Barometer Barometer is a comprehensive market state analysis tool that synthesizes multiple market dimensions into a single, actionable reading. Like a weather barometer predicts atmospheric conditions, this indicator forecasts market "weather" by combining trend, volatility, volume, range, and momentum analysis.
Stop guessing about market conditions. The Barometer tells you exactly what state the market is in and quantifies it with a score from -12 to +12.
█ THE BAROMETER CONCEPT
The indicator creates a composite score by analyzing five key market dimensions:
📈 TREND ANALYSIS (Score: -3 to +3)
• Short-term trend (fast EMA)
• Medium-term trend (intermediate EMA)
• Long-term trend (slow EMA)
• MA alignment bonus when all aligned
📊 VOLATILITY ANALYSIS (Score: -2 to +2)
• ATR percentile ranking
• High/Low volatility detection
• Expansion/Contraction identification
📦 VOLUME ANALYSIS (Score: -2 to +2)
• Volume relative to moving average
• Climax and dry-up detection
• Volume trend analysis
📐 RANGE ANALYSIS (Score: -2 to +2)
• Bar range vs average range
• Expansion/Contraction states
• Wide bar and narrow bar detection
🚀 MOMENTUM ANALYSIS (Score: -2 to +2)
• RSI-based momentum scoring
• Overbought/Oversold detection
• Optional component
█ MARKET STATES
The composite score translates into five market states:
🔥 STRONG BULL (Score ≥ 5)
Most conditions aligned bullish
High probability trend continuation
Aggressive long opportunities
📈 BULL (Score 2-4)
Generally bullish conditions
Some components may be neutral
Standard long setups favored
➖ NEUTRAL (Score -1 to +1)
Mixed or transitional conditions
Caution advised
Wait for clarity
📉 BEAR (Score -2 to -4)
Generally bearish conditions
Some components may be neutral
Standard short setups favored
❄️ STRONG BEAR (Score ≤ -5)
Most conditions aligned bearish
High probability trend continuation
Aggressive short opportunities
Fair Value Gaps w Signals fair value gaps for resistance and support. It is important to understand ranges with this. An open bearish fair value gaps can indicate a bearish range. A bullish fair value gaps in premium can indicate retracement into the bearish range. A fair value gaps on a high time frame in discount of the range can be a indicator to go long. one can play the fair value gaps in discount or a range back into it for longs. negation of the fair value gaps candle bearish or bullish is stop loss. One would want to see a small time frame turn around story within the fair value gaps you are trading. FVG are support and resistance until the market is balanced. A bearish fair value gaps untouched can indicate the end of a range. The candle before the 1st bullsih fair value gaps could be the beginning of the range. all time frames
Volatility Regimes | GainzAlgo📊 OVERVIEW:
=========
This is a comprehensive ATR-based trading system designed for professional
traders who need advanced volatility analysis, precise trade management, and
intelligent market regime detection. The indicator combines multiple proven
volatility concepts into one powerful, customizable tool.
⭐ WHY THIS SYSTEM IS UNIQUE AND WORTHY OF PUBLICATION:
====================================================
This is not simply a collection of ATR-based indicators placed together.
It represents a unified volatility analysis framework where each component
is specifically designed to work in concert with the others, creating a
complete trading workflow that cannot be replicated by using multiple
separate indicators.
🔗 SYNERGISTIC INTEGRATION - How Components Work Together:
🧠 1. CONTEXT-AWARE ANALYSIS
The Volatility Regime Detection acts as the "brain" of the system,
classifying market conditions into 4 distinct phases. Every other
component then adapts its behavior based on this regime classification:
- ATR Bands expand/contract with regime changes
- Stop Loss distances automatically adjust (tighter in compression,
wider in high volatility)
- Take Profit targets scale proportionally to current regime
- Signal sensitivity filters itself based on market phase
📐 2. UNIFIED VOLATILITY FOUNDATION
All calculations share a single ATR baseline calculation, ensuring
internal consistency across the entire system. When ATR changes, every
element updates in perfect synchronization:
- Bands recalculate from the same ATR value
- Risk management levels use the same volatility measurement
- Regime classification and signals reference identical data
🛡️ 3. INTEGRATED RISK MANAGEMENT
The system doesn't just show WHERE to enter - it calculates HOW MUCH
to risk:
- Dynamic Stop Loss adapts to current ATR automatically
- Position Size Calculator uses the dynamic stop to compute exact quantities
- Take Profit levels scale proportionally, maintaining optimal risk:reward
✅ 4. TWO-STAGE SIGNAL CONFIRMATION
The alert system creates a logical progression:
Step 1: Volatility Breakout → Market energy is building
Step 2: Trend Confirmation → Direction confirmed with volatility support
This prevents false breakouts by requiring both volatility AND direction.
🏦 5. PROFESSIONAL WORKFLOW INTEGRATION
The system mirrors how institutional traders analyze markets:
Phase 1: Assess regime → What's the market doing?
Phase 2: Identify setup → Where's the opportunity?
Phase 3: Calculate risk → What's my exposure?
Phase 4: Set targets → Where do I take profit?
Phase 5: Monitor regime → When do conditions change?
❌ WHY NOT USE SEPARATE INDICATORS?
- Separate ATR Bands: Don't know about regime changes, remain static
- Separate Regime Indicator: Doesn't automatically adjust stop/targets
- Separate Position Calculator: Doesn't know your actual ATR-based stop
- Manual Integration: Requires constant mental calculation and cross-referencing
🧮 DETAILED CALCULATION METHODOLOGY:
=================================
📏 ATR (AVERAGE TRUE RANGE) CALCULATION:
- True Range = Maximum of:
1. Current High - Current Low
2. Absolute value of (Current High - Previous Close)
3. Absolute value of (Current Low - Previous Close)
- ATR = Simple Moving Average of True Range over specified period (default: 14)
📊 DYNAMIC ATR BANDS:
- Upper Band = Current Close + (ATR × Band Multiplier)
- Lower Band = Current Close - (ATR × Band Multiplier)
- Band 1: 1.0× ATR (closest support/resistance)
- Band 2: 2.0× ATR (intermediate zone)
- Band 3: 3.0× ATR (extended zone)
🌡️ VOLATILITY REGIME CLASSIFICATION:
Step 1: Calculate ATR Baseline
- Baseline ATR = SMA or EMA of ATR over long period (default: 50 bars)
- This represents "normal" volatility for the instrument
Step 2: Calculate ATR Ratio
- ATR Ratio = Current ATR ÷ Baseline ATR
- Example: If current ATR = 70 and baseline = 50, ratio = 1.40
Step 3: Classify Regime Based on Ratio
- COMPRESSION: Ratio < 0.70 (ATR is 30% below normal)
Market consolidating, volatility contracting, energy building
- EXPANSION: Ratio between 1.15 and 1.40 (ATR is 15-40% above normal)
Volatility breaking out, early phase of directional movement
- HIGH VOLATILITY: Ratio > 1.40 (ATR is 40%+ above normal)
Strong sustained trend with high participation
- EXHAUSTION: ATR declining after high volatility period
Requires: Previous high ratio + declining ATR over X bars (default: 5)
Trend maturity, potential reversal or consolidation approaching
🛑 DYNAMIC STOP LOSS CALCULATION:
- For Long Positions: Stop Loss = Entry Price - (ATR × SL Multiplier)
- For Short Positions: Stop Loss = Entry Price + (ATR × SL Multiplier)
- Default Multiplier: 2.0× ATR
- Adjusts automatically: Wider in high volatility, tighter in compression
🎯 TAKE PROFIT LEVELS:
- TP1 = Entry Price ± (ATR × TP1 Multiplier)
- TP2 = Entry Price ± (ATR × TP2 Multiplier)
- TP3 = Entry Price ± (ATR × TP3 Multiplier)
- Direction (+ or -) depends on trade direction
📦 POSITION SIZE CALCULATION:
Formula: Position Size = Account Risk Amount ÷ Stop Loss Distance
Step-by-step:
1. Risk Amount = Account Size × (Risk Percentage ÷ 100)
2. Stop Distance = |Entry Price - Stop Loss Price|
3. Position Size = Risk Amount ÷ Stop Distance
📈 ATR PERCENTILE RANKING:
- >80% = Extremely high volatility
- 20-80% = Normal volatility range
- <20% = Extremely low volatility
🌀 VOLATILITY CONTRACTION PATTERN:
Detects extended low-volatility periods indicating imminent breakout.
🧭 TREND DETECTION SIGNALS:
Bullish: Price > MA AND Current ATR > ATR MA
Bearish: Price < MA AND Current ATR > ATR MA
⚡ VOLATILITY BREAKOUT SIGNALS:
Triggered when ATR exceeds its moving average by a defined threshold.

Gridbot Ping Pong🏓 Gridbot Ping Pong is a dynamic grid bot indicator that generates buy and sell signals as price oscillates between automatically calculated support and resistance levels. The grid adapts to trending markets through adjustable tilt and anchor parameters, which control the grid slope and shift resistance respectively. Entry signals trigger when price touches grid levels, while take profit and stop signals manage position exits. Unlike traditional grid bots that require horizontal ranges, this indicator maintains its oscillation zone as price trends by tilting and shifting the grid structure to follow momentum. The grid bot approach aims to accumulate gains through frequent touches across multiple grid levels rather than seeking large directional moves. Like a ping pong ball in motion, price oscillates between grid levels — each touch generates a signal.
⚡ THEORY & CONCEPTS ⚡
Grid trading is a systematic approach that places buy and sell orders at predetermined price intervals, creating a grid of orders above and below a set price level. In ranging markets, this method capitalizes on natural price oscillations by buying at lower grid levels and selling at higher ones. Each completed round trip between levels represents a captured opportunity, and the frequency of these oscillations determines the grid's effectiveness. Traditional grid bots excel when price remains within the defined range, methodically accumulating gains as price bounces between levels.
However, traditional grid structures face significant challenges when markets begin to trend. Fixed horizontal levels that performed well during consolidation become liabilities during directional moves. An uptrend leaves buy orders unfilled while sell orders trigger prematurely, and a downtrend creates the opposite problem. Extended trends can result in accumulated positions at increasingly unfavorable prices, with no mechanism to adapt to the new market reality. The static nature of traditional grids assumes markets will return to the mean, yet sustained breakouts regularly invalidate this assumption.
Gridbot Ping Pong addresses these limitations through dynamic grid adaptation. The tilt parameter angles the grid in the direction of the prevailing trend, aligning support and resistance levels with market momentum rather than fighting against it. The anchor parameter creates buffer zones beyond the outer grid boundaries, requiring price to demonstrate conviction before triggering a grid shift. When price breaks through these buffers, the entire grid recenters to the new price level. This combination of tilting grids and controlled shifting allows the indicator to maintain grid trading mechanics while acknowledging that markets trend.
The grid adapts through a downtrend and early reversal. Entry signals (▲▼), take profit signals (△▽), and grid shifts demonstrate the ping pong sequence as price oscillates between levels.
The grid structure consists of five levels: two potential support levels below, a center base price, and two potential resistance levels above. These levels are calculated as percentage intervals from a dynamic base price, with the spacing parameter determining the distance between each level. Trend direction is derived from consecutive grid shifts, where multiple shifts in the same direction confirm momentum. The grid restricts entries to the trend direction — buy signals in uptrends, sell signals in downtrends — while counter-trend signals convert to exits when appropriate.
Full market cycle demonstrating grid adaptation through rally, reversal, decline, and recovery. Buy signals dominate during uptrends, sell signals during downtrends, with take profits at boundaries throughout. Two stop signals mark the trend reversals.
Tilt
The tilt mechanic introduces slope to the grid structure based on trend direction and momentum. When consecutive shifts occur in the same direction, the tilt increases, creating a steeper grid that tracks with the trend. As the trend progresses, support levels rise with it — buy signals trigger on pullbacks to these rising levels rather than static levels abandoned by price. Similarly, resistance levels fall during downtrends, keeping sell signals relevant to current price action. If the trend reverses and shifts occur in the opposite direction, the tilt resets and begins building in the new direction. The tilt strength parameter controls how aggressively the grid slopes, with higher values producing steeper angles. Negative tilt values invert this relationship, angling the grid against the prevailing momentum rather than with it. This counter-trend configuration positions support levels lower during uptrends and resistance levels higher during downtrends, favoring mean reversion entries that anticipate pullbacks rather than continuation.
Negative tilt applied during an uptrend. Despite the bullish price action from late November through December, the grids slope downward, positioning buy signals at deeper support levels. Take profit signals appear at resistance as price reaches the upper grid boundaries before pulling back. The counter-trend configuration captures oscillations within the rising market rather than chasing momentum.
Anchor
The anchor mechanic provides resistance to grid shifting. Buffer zones extend beyond the outer grid boundaries, requiring price to demonstrate conviction before triggering a shift. Higher anchor values create larger buffers, requiring more significant price movement. As consecutive shifts confirm a trend, the pro-trend buffer shrinks, allowing the grid to follow momentum with increasing ease. This lets the indicator commit to established trends while resisting premature shifts during consolidations. Tilt and anchor work in complementary tension: tilt rewards momentum by angling the grid, while anchor resists excessive shifting by requiring price conviction to recenter. When price breaks through these buffers, the entire grid recenters to the new price level and play continues on a fresh table.
Steady uptrend with minimal tilt. The flat grid segments demonstrate that shifting alone keeps the grid aligned with price action. Buy signals (▲) and take profit signals (▽) alternate as price bounces between levels, accumulating gains through repetition across the entire move.
Sustained uptrend from June through September. The grid follows the trend with increasing ease as consecutive shifts reduce the pro-trend buffer. The October consolidation eventually triggers a downward shift and stop signal, but the system adapts to the renewed uptrend in November with fresh entry signals.
Signal Generation
The indicator generates three signal types. Entry signals (▲▼) trigger when price reaches a grid level in the direction of the trend, initiating a new position. Take profit signals (△▽) trigger when price reaches a grid level against the trend direction while a position is held, capturing gains as the rally continues. Stop signals (⦿) trigger when a grid shift occurs while holding a position adverse to the new shift direction. The ball goes off the table.
Trend reversal from bearish to bullish. The grid follows the downtrend through November with consecutive sell signals. A stop signal (⦿) triggers at the bottom as the grid shifts adversely against the held position. The system resets and adapts to the emerging uptrend in December, generating fresh buy signals as the new direction establishes.
Trigger Options
The signal trigger determines what price data the indicator uses to detect grid touches, balancing responsiveness against confirmation.
Auto : The default setting, using wick-based detection for pro-trend signals and close-based detection for counter-trend signals. This balances responsiveness when entering with the trend against confirmation when signaling against it.
Wick Touch : Generates signals in real-time when the high or low touches a grid level, providing the fastest response to price interaction.
Wick Reverse : Requires the wick to cross through the grid level from the previous bar, confirming the touch before signaling.
SWMA : Uses a Symmetrically Weighted Moving Average as the trigger source, generating signals only when the smoothed price crosses grid levels.
Close : Uses the bar's closing price as the trigger source, providing confirmed signals after each bar completes.
Symmetrically Weighted Moving Average (SWMA) trigger during a trend reversal. The smoothed price line filters intrabar noise, generating signals only when the SWMA crosses grid levels rather than reacting to wick touches. The grid follows the downtrend through November, resets at the bottom, and adapts to the emerging uptrend in December.
Signal Safeguards
The indicator includes built-in protections to reduce overtrading and mitigate risk, keeping the ball in play longer:
Boundary Protection : New entries are blocked at the outermost grid levels where breakout risk is highest. Exits remain permitted at these boundaries.
Signal Spacing : Signals maintain one-level separation from the most recent signal, preventing clusters of entries at similar prices.
Trend Alignment : When conflicting conditions arise, signals align with the prevailing trend direction rather than fighting momentum.
Automatic Profit Taking : Counter-trend interactions convert to take profit signals when a position is held, capturing gains rather than reversing exposure.
Adverse Shift Stops : When the grid shifts against a held position, a stop signal triggers to exit before further adverse movement.
Cautious Breakout Entries : On the first shift in a new direction, entries are restricted to favorable grid levels until the trend confirms through consecutive shifts.
Shift Resistance : Counter-trend shifts always require full buffer conviction, while pro-trend shifts become easier only after the trend is confirmed.
🛠️ CONFIGURATION & SETTINGS 🛠️
Core Parameters
SPACING (%) : Sets the percentage distance between grid levels. Higher values create wider grids with more room between signals, lower values create tighter grids with more frequent signal opportunities.
TRIGGER : Selects the price source for signal detection. See Trigger Options above.

SWMA : Sets the color of the Symmetrically Weighted Moving Average line.
🏓 PLAYING GRIDBOT PING PONG 🏓
⚪The objective is not to predict where price will go, but to be present at each level when it arrives.
⚪Each touch at a boundary counts. Gains accumulate through repetition, not single swings.
⚪The rally continues until it doesn't. When the ball goes off the table, the game resets.
⚪The grid creates boundaries where price bounces back and forth. The table is set — the ball does the work.
⚪Price oscillates between defined levels. The grid is the table. Everything else is just ping pong.
Tennis is a form of ping pong. In fact, tennis is ping pong played while standing on the table. In fact, all racquet games are nothing but derivatives of ping pong. — George Carlin

Uptrick: Price Memory TrendIntroduction
Uptrick: Price Memory Trend is a custom indicator designed to detect directional shifts and volatility changes using a non-traditional price memory approach. Unlike moving average systems, it builds a dynamic memory of price that adapts gradually over time, allowing it to detect significant deviations and trend transitions with reduced noise.
Overview
This script identifies trend changes by comparing the current price to a memory-based baseline. When price deviates significantly from this memory base, it triggers a trend regime shift—either bullish or bearish. Adaptive deviation bands are calculated using absolute deviation from the memory base, not ATR or standard deviation, which allows the indicator to capture volatility uniquely. Visual components include color-coded candles, labeled signals, optional bands, and a live status table summarizing current trend metrics.
Originality
The indicator’s core innovation lies in its use of a decaying memory function to track trend direction, replacing moving averages with a price memory that responds only to significant deviations. This method avoids lag typically associated with smoothing techniques, enabling timely trend detection. Furthermore, deviation is measured directly in price terms, rather than through volatility surrogates like ATR or Bollinger Bands, resulting in a more raw and responsive depiction of price behavior.
Inputs
Core Engine
Memory Strength: Sets how strongly the memory responds to price changes. Higher values make the memory base more reactive.
Memory Decay: Controls how much past memory is retained. Lower values weight new prices more heavily.
Deviation Length: Length of the EMA used to smooth absolute price deviation. A longer setting results in smoother bands.
Band Multiplier: Expands or contracts the dynamic bands. Higher values widen the bands, reducing sensitivity.
Customization
Color Palette: Selects one of six predefined color schemes for bull and bear visuals.
Show Bands: Enables or disables the display of deviation bands.
Look: Chooses between 'Bands', 'Trail', or 'Intense' styles, affecting how bands and fills are drawn.
Bands
Trail
Intense
Show Info Table: Toggles display of the real-time trend and volatility status panel.
Table Position: Determines which corner of the chart the info panel appears in.
Text Size: Adjusts font size used within the info table.
Features
Trend Detection
Bullish Shift: Triggered when price crosses above the upper band, entering a new bullish regime.
Bearish Shift: Triggered when price crosses below the lower band, entering a new bearish regime.
Trend state is persistent and updated only on confirmed transitions, avoiding repeated entries in the same direction.
Candle Coloring
Candles are dynamically recolored based on current trend direction: bull, bear, or neutral.
Signal Labels
Visual labels marked "Up" or "Down" are placed on the chart when a regime shift occurs, helping to mark turning points.
Deviation Bands
Dynamic upper and lower bands are drawn based on smoothed absolute deviation from the memory base.
Additional outer bands based on ATR may be drawn to highlight zone intensity when the 'Intense' or 'Trail' styles are selected.
Bands visually indicate overextension and help frame price context relative to memory.
Alerts
Built-in alert conditions trigger on bullish or bearish trend shifts, useful for automation or notifications.
Info Table
The optional info table displays:
Current trend direction
Band state (calm, hot, or cool)
Price stretch from base
Trend age in bars
Confidence level based on deviation
Memory slope and acceleration
Band width and compression state
Reversion risk based on stretch level
Info Table:
Trade Example:
Logic
Price Memory
A recursive formula updates a memory variable based on the current price.
The memory adjusts only when the price deviates meaningfully from its previous value.
The formula uses a combination of delta-weighting and exponential decay:
> memory := previous_memory + delta × memory_strength
> memory := memory × memory_decay + price × (1 - memory_decay)
This produces a smooth, adaptive base that responds gradually to directional price moves.
Deviation and Bands
Absolute deviation between price and the memory base is calculated and smoothed using an EMA.
The upper and lower bands are then calculated as:
> Upper Band = memory base + (smoothed deviation × band multiplier)
> Lower Band = memory base - (smoothed deviation × band multiplier)
ATR-based extensions can optionally be drawn around these bands for added visual structure.
Trend Logic
Bullish and bearish states are tracked using crossovers and crossunders of price against the upper and lower bands.
The indicator maintains a persistent trend state variable that updates only when a confirmed regime change occurs.
This prevents multiple signals within the same trend direction (non-pyramiding behavior).
Stretch and Band Analysis
Stretch is measured as the deviation of price from memory, normalized by smoothed deviation.
Band width is tracked over time and used to detect compression or expansion.
Band position is calculated to identify where price sits between the upper and lower bands.
Info Table Metrics
Memory Slope and Acceleration: Show first and second derivative of the memory base to capture trend speed and change.
Confidence Level: Based on stretch intensity, indicating trend strength.
Reversion Risk: Inferred from how extended price is beyond the band.
Compression: Evaluated by comparing current band width to its recent average.
Summary
Uptrick: Price Memory Trend provides an alternative framework for trend identification by replacing traditional smoothing with adaptive memory logic. It measures price deviation without reliance on ATR or standard deviation, instead focusing on distance from a reactive baseline. With regime-based trend tracking, customizable visuals, and a detailed status table, it supports both discretionary and system-driven trading styles.

FVG - MTF Confirmed Tracker [JP/EN]Indicator Description: FVG MTF Concluded Bar Tracker
This indicator is a highly functional tool that identifies FVG for the currently displayed bar or a higher-level bar (MTF) and determines its "resolution" when the candlestick is resolved.
Its most notable feature is that it only displays history (gray) on the chart and sends an alert when a "significant level that has been continuously observed for a certain period of time" is resolved.
1. Timeframe Settings
Base Timeframe: Select the timeframe on which to detect FVG. Select "Same as chart" to use the current bar, or select another bar (1-hour, 4-hour, etc.) to project the FVG of the higher-level bar onto the current chart.
2. Active FVG Settings
Sets the currently active support/resistance area that has not yet been filled by price.
Show Bull/Bear: Individually toggles whether to display bull (buy) and bear (sell) FVG.
Color: Specifies the color of the box for the unresolved state.
Extend Right (Active): When enabled, the box will continue to extend indefinitely toward the right edge of the chart until the FVG is resolved.
Max Active FVG: This sets the maximum number of unresolved boxes to display on the chart. When a new FVG is detected, the oldest unresolved box will be automatically deleted if it exceeds this limit, saving resources.
3. Filled FVG Settings (Resolved, Grayed Out, Determination Logic)
These are very important settings for displaying history when the price fills an FVG.
Show Filled: Select whether to leave resolved FVGs grayed out (default color) as "history."
Color: Specifies the color of boxes that have been resolved (Filled).
Extend Right (Filled): When this is turned off, the box extension will stop at the candlestick where the resolution is confirmed, making the resolution point clear.
Max Filled FVG: This sets the maximum number of grayed out boxes to display as history. When the limit is reached, the oldest history will be deleted.
Min Bars to Keep & Alert (Important): This is the threshold for the number of bars elapsed between the occurrence of an FVG and its resolution.
If the threshold is not met: The event is considered a temporary reaction, and no alert will be sounded. The event will also be deleted without being recorded in the history (gray).
If the threshold is met or exceeded: The event is considered a significant market event, and the box will turn gray and an alert will be sent.
4. Alert Settings (Alert Notification Logic)
Alerts are executed in perfect sync with the "resolution of significant levels (graying out)."
Alert when Bull / Bear turns Gray: A notification will be sent the moment a bullish or bearish FVG is resolved after meeting the threshold and turning gray.
Execution Timing: A notification will only be sent when the candlestick is confirmed. It will not be triggered if the candlestick is only momentarily touched by the wick midway through the candlestick. This allows you to know for sure that the event was resolved at the time of closing.
インジケーター解説：FVG MTF 確定足トラッカー
このインジケーターは、現在表示している足、または上位足（MTF）のFVGを特定し、その「解消」をローソク足の確定時に判定する高機能ツールです。
最大の特徴は、**「一定期間意識され続けた重要な水準」**が解消された時のみ、チャートに履歴（グレー）を残し、アラートを通知する設計にあります。
1. Timeframe Settings（時間足設定）
Base Timeframe / 基準にする時間足: FVGを検知する時間足を選択します。「Same as chart（チャートと同じ）」を選べば現在の足、それ以外（1時間足、4時間足など）を選べば上位足のFVGを現在のチャートに投影します。
2. Active FVG Settings（未解消時の設定ロジック）
まだ価格に埋められていない、現在有効なサポート・レジスタンス領域の設定です。
Show Bull / Bear: ブル（買い）およびベア（売り）のFVGを表示するかどうかを個別に切り替えます。
Color: 未解消状態のボックスの色を指定します。
Extend Right (Active): 有効にすると、FVGが解消されるまでボックスをチャートの右端に向かって無制限に延長し続けます。
Max Active FVG: チャート上に表示する未解消ボックスの最大数です。新しいFVGが検知された際、この上限を超えていると最も古い未解消ボックスが自動的に削除され、リソースを節約します。
3. Filled FVG Settings（解消済み・グレー化・判定本数ロジック）
価格がFVGを埋めた際の、履歴表示に関する非常に重要な設定項目です。
Show Filled: 解消されたFVGを「履歴」としてグレー表示（デフォルト色）で残すかどうかを選択します。
Color: 解消済み（Filled）状態になったボックスの色を指定します。
Extend Right (Filled): これをOFFにすると、解消が確定したローソク足の位置でボックスの延長が止まり、解消地点が明確になります。
Max Filled FVG: 履歴として残すグレーボックスの最大数です。上限に達すると、古い履歴から順に削除されます。
Min Bars to Keep & Alert (重要): FVGが発生してから解消されるまでの「経過本数」の閾値です。
判定本数に満たない場合: 一時的な反応とみなし、アラートを鳴らさず、履歴（グレー）にも残さず削除します。
判定本数以上の場合: 市場で十分に意識された「重要な水準」とみなし、ボックスをグレーに変更し、アラートを通知します。
4. Alert Settings（アラート通知ロジック）
アラートは「重要水準の解消（グレー化）」と完全に同期して実行されます。
Alert when Bull / Bear turns Grey: ブル/ベアそれぞれのFVGが、上記の「判定本数」を満たした状態で解消され、グレーに変化した瞬間に通知を送ります。
実行タイミング: ローソク足の確定時にのみ通知されます。足の途中のヒゲで一時的に触れただけでは鳴りません。これにより、クローズ時点で確実に解消されたことのみを把握できます。
Marubozu Detector**Marubozu Detector (v6)**
This indicator identifies **Marubozu candles** — powerful candlestick patterns indicating strong directional momentum with minimal or no shadows (wicks).
A **Bullish Marubozu** (green) shows buyers dominated the session: open ≈ low, close ≈ high.
A **Bearish Marubozu** (red) shows sellers in control: open ≈ high, close ≈ low.
Unlike strict detectors, this version allows customizable tolerance for tiny shadows, making it practical for real markets where perfect Marubozu are rare.
**Key Features**
- **Adjustable tolerance**: Max shadow % of candle range (default 5%).
- **Minimum body size**: Requires body ≥ % of range (default 90%) to filter small candles.
- **Clear labels**: "BULL MARU" below bullish, "BEAR MARU" above bearish.
- **Alerts**: Built-in conditions for Bullish/Bearish Marubozu on any timeframe.
- **Pine Script v6**: Fully compatible with the latest version for optimal performance.
**How to Use**
1. Add to chart via Indicators > Community Scripts.
2. Customize inputs: Lower tolerance for stricter detection, higher for more signals.
3. Combine with trend tools (e.g., EMA, support/resistance) for better entries/exits.
- Bullish Marubozu in uptrend → potential continuation long.
- Bearish Marubozu in downtrend → potential short.
**Why Marubozu?**
These candles signal strong conviction and often precede continuations or reversals. This detector helps spot them quickly without manual scanning.

LTF Distribution Analyzer█ OVERVIEW
LTF Distribution Analyzer reveals the hidden price distribution and order flow within each candle by sampling lower timeframe data. It visualizes where prices concentrated, how volume was distributed between buyers and sellers, and identifies divergences between price action and actual market participation.
Unlike traditional candlesticks showing only OHLC, this indicator exposes the statistical structure of price movement using quartile-based visualization combined with delta analysis.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator is built on two core concepts:
1 — Statistical Price Distribution
Each candle contains many lower timeframe bars. By analyzing these bars, we calculate:
• Q1 (25th percentile) - 25% of prices traded below this level
• Q3 (75th percentile) - 75% of prices traded below this level
• Median - The middle price value
• IQR (Interquartile Range) - The Q3-Q1 spread containing 50% of all prices
2 — Volume Delta Analysis
Delta measures buying vs selling pressure:
• Delta = Buy Volume − Sell Volume
• Positive delta = More aggressive buying
• Negative delta = More aggressive selling
• Delta Ratio normalizes this as a percentage
█ HOW IT WORKS
The indicator fetches lower timeframe data using request.security_lower_tf() and processes it to create a statistical summary:
Step 1: Timeframe Calculation
• Auto mode: Chart timeframe ÷ Auto Divisor = LTF
• Example: 1H chart ÷ 1000 = ~3.6 second sampling
• Manual mode: User-specified timeframe
Step 2: Data Collection
• Collects all close prices from LTF bars within current candle
• Aggregates volume by candle direction (bullish/bearish)
Step 3: Statistical Analysis
• Calculates quartiles (Q1, Q3), median, and boundaries
• Identifies outliers using 1.5× and 3× IQR fences
• Finds Volume POC (price with highest volume)
Step 4: Delta Calculation
• Sums buy volume (from bullish LTF bars)
• Sums sell volume (from bearish LTF bars)
• Computes delta ratio for color determination
█ VISUAL ELEMENTS
┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ ▲ Extreme outlier (3× IQR) │
│ △ Mild outlier (1.5× IQR) │
│ ─ Upper whisker cap │
│ ┊ Whisker line (dashed) │
│ ▄ IQR Box (Q1 to Q3 range) │
│ ━ Volume POC (highest volume) │
│ ● Median (green=bull, red=bear) │
│ ┊ Whisker line (dashed) │
│ ─ Lower whisker cap │
│ ▽ Mild outlier │
│ ▼ Extreme outlier │
└─────────────────────────────────────────┘
█ COLOR SYSTEM
Colors indicate the relationship between candle direction and order flow:
🟢 TEAL (Positive Flow)
Bullish candle + Positive delta
→ Strong buying confirmation
→ Trend continuation signal
🔴 RED (Negative Flow)
Bearish candle + Negative delta
→ Strong selling confirmation
→ Trend continuation signal
🟠 ORANGE (Mixed Signal A)
Bullish candle + Negative delta
→ Price up but sellers dominated
→ Potential weakness/reversal warning
🔵 BLUE (Mixed Signal B)
Bearish candle + Positive delta
→ Price down but buyers dominated
→ Potential accumulation/reversal signal
█ SETTINGS
Timeframe Settings
• LTF Mode — Auto or Manual selection
• Manual Timeframe — Specific LTF when in Manual mode
• Auto Divisor — Higher = finer granularity (default: 1000)
• Allow Sub-Minute — Requires Premium subscription
Visual Style
• Positive/Negative Flow colors — Customize the 4 flow colors
• Box Transparency — Opacity of the quartile box (0-100%)
Statistics Display
• Show Statistics Panel — Toggle on-chart stats table
• Show Timeframe Badge — Toggle LTF indicator badge
• Panel Position — Choose corner placement
• Panel Size — Text size selection
█ HOW TO USE
1. Divergence Detection
Look for color mismatches:
• Orange bars in uptrend = weakness, potential reversal
• Blue bars in downtrend = strength, potential reversal
• Multiple consecutive divergent bars strengthen signal
• Wait for confirmation before entry
2. Volume POC Trading
• POC marks where most volume traded
• POC clusters at similar levels = strong S/R zone
• Price often returns to POC before continuing
• Use POC for entry/exit targeting
3. Trend Confirmation
• Consecutive teal = strong uptrend
• Consecutive red = strong downtrend
• Median position shows intrabar momentum
• Wide boxes indicate high volatility
4. Outlier Analysis
• Extreme markers (▲▼) often mark stop hunts
• Consider fading extremes at key levels
• Mild markers (△▽) = areas to watch
█ RECOMMENDED SETTINGS
For different chart timeframes:
│ Chart TF │ Auto Divisor │ Resulting LTF │
├──────────┼──────────────┼───────────────┤
│ 15M │ 1500 │ ~1M │
│ 1H │ 1000 │ ~3-4s │
│ 4H │ 600 │ ~24s │
│ Daily │ 500 │ ~2-3M │
Tip: Check the TF badge to confirm active sampling timeframe.
█ BEST PRACTICES
Do:
✓ Use "Bars" chart style for cleanest display
✓ Combine with support/resistance analysis
✓ Wait for confirmation bars
✓ Note POC clusters across multiple bars
✓ Adjust divisor based on your timeframe
Avoid:
✗ Trading single bar signals alone
✗ Using during low volume periods
✗ Trading immediately after news releases
✗ Ignoring overall market context
█ LIMITATIONS
• Requires adequate market liquidity for reliable signals
• Sub-minute timeframes need Premium subscription
• Historical data depth depends on TradingView's data availability
• Delta calculation assumes volume direction matches candle direction

Options Gamma Flip Zones [BackQuant]Options Gamma Flip Zones
A market-structure style “gamma flip” mapper that builds adaptive strike-like zones, scores how price interacts with them, then promotes the strongest candidates into confirmed flip zones. Designed to highlight pinning, failed breaks, and rotational behavior without needing live options chain data.
What this indicator does
This script identifies price levels that behave like “strike magnets” during conditions that resemble options pinning, then draws dynamic zones around those levels.
Instead of assuming every round number matters, it:
Creates a strike ladder (auto or manual step).
Applies a regime filter that looks for “pin-friendly” market conditions.
Tracks and scores repeated interactions with the level.
Upgrades a zone from candidate to confirmed when enough evidence accumulates.
Invalidates zones when price achieves sustained acceptance away from them.
The output is a set of shaded boxes (zones) centered on strike-like levels, with text readouts that show the current state of each zone.
Key concept: “Gamma proxy”
A true gamma flip requires options positioning data. This indicator does not use options chain gamma.
Instead, it uses a proxy approach:
When markets have elevated volatility relative to their recent baseline AND trend strength is weak, price often behaves “sticky” around key levels.
In those conditions, repeated touches and failed escapes around a level behave similarly to pinning around strikes.
So this tool is best read as:
“Where would a strike-like magnet likely exist right now, based on price behavior and regime conditions?”
How zones are created
Zones only start forming when the script detects a pin-friendly regime.
1) Strike Ladder (level selection)
Auto Strike Step selects a step size based on current price magnitude (bigger price, bigger step).
Manual Strike Step lets you force a fixed increment.
The current “active level” is the nearest rounded level to price.
Major Level Every optionally marks major ladder levels (multiples of step).
2) Band construction (zone thickness)
Each zone is a symmetric band around the level, using one of two modes:
ATR mode scales thickness with volatility.
Percent mode scales thickness as a fraction of price.
This matters because “pin behavior” is not a single tick. It’s a region where price repeatedly probes and rejects.
Regime filter (when the script is allowed to believe in pinning)
A zone is only eligible to form and strengthen when Pin Regime is active. Pin Regime is a conjunction of:
1) IV proxy (ATR z-score)
Uses ATR as a volatility proxy.
Converts ATR% into a z-score relative to a long lookback.
IV Proxy Threshold controls how elevated volatility must be before the script considers pinning likely.
2) Weak trend requirement
The script also requires price action to be non-trending:
EMA spread must be small (fast vs slow EMA not diverging strongly).
ADX must be below a ceiling, confirming weak directional trend strength.
Interpretation:
High “IV proxy” + weak trend is where pin-like behavior is most common.
If trend is strong, zones are less meaningful because price is more likely to accept away from levels.
Flip confirmation logic (what upgrades a zone)
A zone is not “confirmed” just because price is near it once. The script builds conviction via evidence accumulation.
Evidence types:
Touches : price comes close to the level within tolerance.
Failed escapes : price pushes outside the band but closes back inside (rejection).
Acceptance run : consecutive closes outside the band, suggesting price is accepting away from the zone.
Protections:
Touch Cooldown prevents counting the same micro-chop as multiple touches.
Acceptance Bars defines what “real acceptance” means, so the zone does not get invalidated by one noisy bar.
A zone becomes confirmed when:
Touches meet the “evidence” requirement.
Failed escapes meet the “rejection” requirement.
The regime filter still says the market is pin-friendly.
That is important, it avoids promoting levels that only worked briefly in a trending tape.
Zone scoring and lifecycle
Each zone maintains a score that evolves over time. Think of score as “how much this level has recently behaved like a magnet.”
Score dynamics:
Decay per bar : score fades over time if price stops respecting the zone.
+ per touch : repeated proximity increases score.
+ per failed escape : rejections add stronger reinforcement.
- per acceptance bar : sustained trading outside reduces score.
Min score to draw : prevents clutter from weak, low-confidence zones.
Invalidation:
If the score becomes very weak AND price achieves sustained acceptance away from the zone, the zone is deleted.
This keeps the chart clean and ensures zones represent current market behavior, not ancient levels.
How to read the plot on chart
1) Zone fill and border
Each zone is drawn as a box extended to the right.
Fill opacity adapts to zone strength, strong zones are visually more prominent.
Border color encodes the current directional context and special events.
2) Bullish vs bearish coloring
A zone is colored bullish when price is currently trading above the zone’s mid-level.
A zone is colored bearish when price is currently trading below it.
This is not a trade signal by itself, it is a state cue for “which side is in control around the level.”
3) Failed escape highlighting
If price attempts to break above the band and fails, the border temporarily highlights as a failed up escape.
If price attempts to break below the band and fails, the border temporarily highlights as a failed down escape.
These are the moments where pin behavior is most visible:
Break attempt.
Immediate rejection.
Return to the band.
4) Midline (optional)
The zone midline is the strike-like level itself.
It is dotted to distinguish it from price structure lines.
5) Optional strike ladder overlay
When enabled, the script draws major and minor ladder lines near current price.
Major levels are thicker and less transparent.
This is a visualization aid for “where the algorithm is rounding,” not a prediction tool.
On-chart text readout (what the box text means)
Each box prints a compact state summary, designed for fast scanning:
Γ CANDIDATE means the zone is being tracked but not yet validated.
Γ FLIP (PROXY) means the zone has met confirmation requirements.
BULL/BEAR indicates which side price is on relative to the mid-level.
L prints the level value.
T is touch count, repeated proximity events.
F is fail count, rejected escape attempts.
IVz is the volatility proxy z-score at the moment.
ADX is the trend strength context.
Practical use cases
1) Pinning and range trading context
Confirmed zones often act like gravity wells in sideways or rotational regimes.
When price repeatedly fails to escape, fading outer edges can be reasonable context for mean reversion workflows.
2) Breakout validation
If price achieves acceptance outside the band for multiple bars, that is stronger breakout context than a single wick.
Zones that invalidate cleanly can mark transitions from pinning to directional move.
3) Time your “do nothing” periods
When Pin Regime is active and a zone is confirmed, the tape often becomes sticky and inefficient for trend chasing.
This helps avoid taking trend entries into a pin environment.
Alerts
Standalone alertconditions are included:
Zone Confirmed : a candidate becomes confirmed.
Zone Touch : price touches an active zone within tolerance.
Zone Invalidated : the zone loses relevance and is removed.
Tuning guidelines
Sensitivity vs quality
Lower Touches Needed and Failed Escapes Needed creates more zones faster, but with lower quality.
Higher values create fewer zones, but the ones that remain are more behaviorally “proven.”
Band width
ATR mode adapts to volatility and is typically safer across assets.
Percent mode is consistent visually but can feel too tight in high vol or too wide in low vol if not tuned.
Regime thresholds
If you want fewer zones, raise IV proxy threshold and tighten weak-trend filters.
If you want more zones, lower IV proxy threshold and loosen weak-trend filters.
Limitations
This is a proxy model, not live options gamma.
In strong trends, pinning assumptions can break, the regime filter is there to reduce that risk, but not eliminate it.
Auto strike step is designed for typical market ranges, manual step is recommended for niche tick sizes or custom markets.

Long-Term Refuges (LTR)══════════════════════════════
// Intruduction // (Spanish Texts Below)
══════════════════════════════
This indicator is originally based on a soft fork of the Multi-Timeframe Recursive Zigzag Indicator by ©Trendoscope. We have used the technology of their libraries for Zigzag generation so that the user has the freedom to choose which of the different Zigzags calculated by ©Trendoscope as "Levels" is most suitable for adapting to the generation of ideal phases for evaluation and selection as "most predominant" phases, in long-term periods, for any asset according to its particular behavior based on its volatility and price variation rhythm.
// Theoretical Foundation of the Indicator //
═══════════════════════════════════
Many traditional institutional investors use the last major-grade market phase that stands out
from the others (longer duration and greater price change on daily timeframe), to base a Fibonacci whose levels are used to open long-term positions. These positions can remain open to be activated in the future up to years in advance. The phase is considered valid until a new more predominant phase develops in the future; with which the same strategy is repeated.
// Indicator Objectives
══════════════════
1) Automatically find the last most predominant phase of an asset, analyzing it on daily timeframe and taking into account whether the long-term market trend is bullish or bearish.
2) Plot a Fibonacci Retracement over the predominant phase (reversed if the phase is bullish.)
3) The indicator numbers and locates the 3 most predominant phases, from which it chooses Top-1 for plotting.
4) If the user does not agree with the indicator's automatic selection, they have the freedom to choose any of the other 2 Top phases for plotting the Fibo and its levels.
5) If the user does not agree with the amplitude or frequency of the plotted Zigzag phases, they can modify the parameters of the Zigzag calculation of the ©Trendoscope algorithm until one of the Top-3 matches the phase they have in mind.
6) As an experimental bonus, the indicator runs a contest (CP) of bull's-eye price coincidences (OHLC) daily with all Fibo levels of the selected Top 3 phases, to verify which phase the market prices are validating as the most popular for placing operations. Contest results are displayed in the CP column of the Top-3 phases table. If as a result of the contest it is detected that there is a change in the winning phase, a switch can be enabled to activate an alert that the user can use with TradingView's alert creator to show an alarm, send an email, etc.
7) This indicator was designed for the user to find the long-term predominant phase of their assets and manually record the date-price coordinates of the i0-i1 anchors of the predominant phase. The Top-1 phase coordinates are shown in the table Top-3 phases from where the user can capture them. The date-price coordinates of all HH and LL pivots, of all Zigzag phases, appear through a switch. With the pivots, the user can search or select a different phase from those automatically found
by the indicator, according to their own research. Subsequently, the user forgets about this LTR indicator for a good while and proceeds to apply in their normal operation our SLTR indicator (Simplified Long-Term Refuges), in which they can plot and follow simultaneously the long-term refuges of up to 5 different assets, by just entering their corresponding date-price coordinates,
which were calculated previously with this LTR indicator.
// Additional Notes:
══════════════════
1) As of the publication date of LTR version v1.0 (12/2025), the ©Trendoscope Zigzag generation parameters were adjusted by default to find the long-term predominant phases of Bitcoin and Ethereum (2020-2021 Pandemic). The levels shown in the chart correspond to the results obtained using daily data from Bitstamp exchange, BTCUSD:BITSTAMP (popular in Europe).
2) Due to TradingView's strict publication rules related to the use of languages other than English, the complete Spanish version (plain language), with all entries, help (tooltips) and bibliographic references, will soon be available in our GH repository: aj-poolom-maasewal. Any corrections or improvements that can be made to the phase selection algorithms or to the CP phase contest algorithm, will be highly appreciated (Statistical, mathematical and financial sciences, among many others, are not particularly our forte).

// Introduccion
════════════
Este indicador esta basado originalmente en un soft fork del Indicador Multi-Timeframe Recursive Zigzag de ©©Trendoscope. Hemos utilizado la tecnologia de sus librerias para la generacion de Zigzags de manera que el usuario tenga la libertad de escoger cual de los diferentes Zigzags que se calculan por ©Trendoscope como "Niveles" es el mas adecuado para adaptarse a la generacion
de las fases ideales para su evaluacion y seleccion como fases "mas preponderantes", en periodos de largo plazo, de cualquier activo de acuerdo a su comportamiento en particular segun su volatibilidad y ritmo de variacion del precio.
// Fundamento Teorico del Indicador
═══════════════════════════
Muchos de los inversores institucionales tradicionales utilizan la ultima fase de mercado de grado mayor que sobresale de las demas (mayor duracion y mayor cambio de precio en temporalidad diaria), para basar un Fibonacci en cuyos niveles abren posiciones de largo plazo. Esas posiciones pueden quedar abiertas para activarse en el futuro hasta con anios de antelacion. Se considera que la fase tiene vigencia hasta que en el futuro se desarrolla otra nueva fase mas preponderante; con la cual
se repite la misma estrategia.
// Objetivos del indicador
════════════════════
1) Encontrar de manera automatica la ultima fase mas preponderante de un activo, analizandolo en temporalidad diaria y tomando en cuenta si la tendencia del mercado a largo plazo es alcista o bajista.
2) Trazar un Retroceso de Fibonacci sobre la fase preponderante (revertido si la fase es alcista.)
3) El indicador numera y localiza las 3 fases mas preponderantes, de las cuales escoge a la Top-1 para el trazado.
4) Si el usuario no concuerda con la seleccion automatica del indicador, tiene la libertad de escoger a cualquiera de las otras 2 fases Top para el trazado del Fibo y sus niveles.
5) Si el usuario no concuerda con la amplitud o la frecuencia de las fases del Zigzag trazado, puede modificar los parametros del calculo del Zigzag del algoritmo de ©Trendoscope hasta que una de las Top-3 coincida con la fase que tiene mentalizada.
6) Como bonus experimental, el indicador ejecuta un concurso (CP) de tiro al blanco de coincidencias de precios (OHLC) diarios, con todos los niveles Fibo de las Top 3 fases seleccionadas, para tratar de comprobar cual es la fase que estan validando los precios del mercado como la mas popular para colocar operaciones. Los resultados del concurso se despliegan en la columna CP de la tabla Top-3 fases. Si como resultado del concurso se detecta que hay un cambio en la fase ganadora, se puede habilitar un switch para que se active una alerta que el usuario puede utilizar con el creador de alertas de Tradingview para que le muestre una alarma, le mande un email, etc.
7) Este indicador fue diseniado para que el usuario encuentre la fase preponderante de largo plazo de sus activos, y registre a mano las coordenadas fecha-precio de las anclas io-i1 de la fase preponderante. Las coordenadas de la fase Top-1 se muestran en la tabla Top-3 fases, de donde la puede capturar el usuario. Las coordenadas fecha-precio de todos los pivots HH y LL, de todas las fases del Zigzag, aparecen mediante un switch. Con los pivots, el usuario puede buscar o seleccionar otra fase diferente a las encontradas automaticamente por el indicador, de acuerdo a su investigacion propia. Posteriormente, el usuario se olvida por un buen rato de este indicador RLP y pasa a aplicar en su operativa normal nuestro indicador RLPS (Refugios de largo plazo simplificado), en el cual puede trazar y dar seguimiento simultaneo a los refugios de largo plazo de hasta 5 diferentes activos, con tan solo introducir sus correspondientes coordenadas fecha-precio, previamente calculadas con este indicador RLP.
// Notas adicionales
════════════════
1) A la fecha de publicacion de la version v1.0 de RLP (LTR) (12/2025), los parametros de generacion del Zigzag de ©Trendoscope se ajustaron por default para encontrar las fases preponderantes de largo plazo de Bitcoin y Etherum (Pandemia 2020-2021). Los niveles mostrados en el grafico, corresponden a los resultados obtenidos, usando los datos diarios del exchange Bitstamp, BTCUSD:BITSTAMP (muy popular aquí en Europa).
2) Debido a las estrictas reglas de publicacion de Tradingview relacionadas con el uso de lenguajes diferentes al ingles, la version en espaniol (roman paladino) completa, con todas las entradas, ayudas (tooltips) y referencias bibliograficas, estara proximamente disponible en nuestro repositorio de GH: aj-poolom-maasewal. Cualquier correccion o mejora que se le puedan hacer a los algoritmos de seleccion de fases o al algoritmo del concurso CP de fases, seran altamente apreciados (La ciencias estadisticas, matematicas y financieras, entre otras muchas, no son particularmente nuestro fuerte).
MTF Candle Body Break WITH 20SMAMTF Candle Body Break WITH 20SMA: Complete Guide
This indicator is a professional-grade market environment analysis tool designed to synchronize "Market Structure" and "Momentum" across multiple timeframes (MTF).
1. Core Logic: Candle Body Break
Unlike traditional high/low breakouts that include wicks, this tool focuses exclusively on "Body Breaks" (Closing prices).
Logical Basis: Wicks often represent temporary noise. A closing price break signifies a genuine shift in market consensus.
Visualization: * Blue Lines: Bullish Structure.
Red Lines: Bearish Structure.
Gray/Black Lines: Historical breakout levels that often act as future Support or Resistance (S/R Flip).
2. Triple 20SMA System
The indicator automatically plots three generations of 20-period SMAs relative to your current chart.
Short-term (Black): 15-Min 20SMA (On a 1H chart). This acts as the "immediate support" for a strong trend.
Mid-term (Blue): Current TF 20SMA. The backbone of the trend.
Long-term (Red): Higher TF 20SMA. The major trend direction.
3. The Dashboard System (Three Components)
The right side of the screen features a three-part visual system to confirm trend alignment:
① Top-Right Panel: Long-Term Signal
Compares Daily (1D) and 4-Hour (4H) structure.
Blue: Both are bullish.
Red: Both are bearish.
② Middle-Right Bar: Momentum Signal (The "Final Filter")
This vertical bar represents the SMA 10/20 Sync.
Blue: The SMA 10 is above the SMA 20 on the 1-Hour chart. This indicates that short-term momentum is accelerating upward.
Red: The SMA 10 is below the SMA 20. This indicates downward acceleration.
Gray: No clear momentum (ranging or indecisive).
③ Bottom-Right Panel: Short-Term Signal
Compares 1-Hour (1H) and 15-Minute (15M) structure.
Blue: Both are bullish.
Red: Both are bearish.
4. Entry Signal: The "●" (Dot)
The "●" signal is the "Perfect Alignment" trigger. It appears when:
Long-term (Daily/4H) is aligned.
Short-term (1H/15M) is aligned.
Momentum (Middle Bar) is aligned.
When all these turn the same color, the "●" appears, signaling a high-probability trade.
日本語解説：完全版
このインジケーターは、**「相場の構造（実体ブレイク）」と「勢い（移動平均線の同期）」**を全時間軸で一致させ、高勝率なポイントを特定する環境認識ツールです。
1. 核心：実体ブレイク（Body Break）
ヒゲではなく、**「終値（実体）」**で高値・安値を更新した時のみをトレンド転換と見なします。
メリット: 突発的なヒゲによるダマシを排除し、真の構造変化を捉えます。
表示: 青ライン（上昇）、赤ライン（下落）。過去のラインはグレー（サポレジ転換の目安）として残ります。
2. 3本の20SMA
チャートの時間足に合わせて、自動で最適な3本のSMAを描画します。
短期（黒）: 15分足20MA（1時間足チャート時）。今の勢いを表し、押し目買いの目印になります。
中期（青）: 表示中の時間足の20MA。
長期（赤）: 上位足の20MA。
3. 3つのダッシュボード（信号機）
右側に表示される3つのパーツが、トレードの「Go/No-Go」を判定します。
① 右上パネル：長期構造シグナル
日足と4時間足の構造を比較します。ここが「青」なら、大きな流れは上向きです。
② 右中央のバー：モーメンタム・シグナル（真ん中のテーブル）
1時間足のSMA10とSMA20の同期を表します。
青: SMA10 ＞ SMA20（上昇加速中）
赤: SMA10 ＜ SMA20（下落加速中）
役割: 構造が良くても、勢いが死んでいる（レンジ）時はエントリーを避けるための「最終フィルター」です。
③ 右下パネル：短期構造シグナル
1時間足と15分足の構造を比較します。ここが「青」に変わる瞬間が、エントリーの準備段階です。
4. エントリーサイン「●」
「長期・中期（真ん中のバー）・短期」すべての色が揃った瞬間にチャートに「●」が出現します。 すべての時間軸の投資家が同じ方向を向いた「完璧な同調」を示しており、最も期待値の高いエントリーポイントとなります。
