Aggregated Open Interest Multi-Exchange (USD)This indicator aggregates Open Interest (OI) data from multiple major cryptocurrency exchanges into a single unified view in USD, using data available on TradingView. It automatically adapts to the asset you're viewing on the chart.
Features:
Aggregates OI from 7 major exchanges: Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget, Deribit, HTX, and Coinbase
All values converted to USD - unlike native OI which shows contracts/coins
Uses only data available on TradingView platform
Automatically detects the asset from your chart (BTC, ETH, SOL, etc.)
True apples-to-apples comparison across exchanges
Displays as candlesticks showing OI open, high, low, and close
Toggle exchanges on/off individually
Handles different contract types per exchange automatically
Why USD conversion matters:
Traditional OI indicators show values in contracts or crypto units, making it difficult to compare across exchanges. This indicator converts everything to USD, giving you the real dollar value of open positions across all exchanges.
How it works:
Simply add the indicator to any crypto perpetual futures chart. It will automatically fetch and aggregate OI data from all supported exchanges for that asset using TradingView's built-in data feeds, converting everything to USD.
Supported Exchanges:
Binance, Bybit, Bitget, HTX: USDT perpetuals
Deribit: BTC/ETH use USD contracts, others use USDC
OKX: Contract-based (automatically converted)
Coinbase: USDC perpetuals
Perfect for traders who want a comprehensive view of total market Open Interest in USD across exchanges using reliable TradingView data.
BOCS AdaptiveBOCS Adaptive Strategy - Automated Volatility Breakout System
WHAT THIS STRATEGY DOES:
This is an automated trading strategy that detects consolidation patterns through volatility analysis and executes trades when price breaks out of these channels. Take-profit and stop-loss levels are calculated dynamically using Average True Range (ATR) to adapt to current market volatility. The strategy closes positions partially at the first profit target and exits the remainder at the second target or stop loss.
TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY:
Price Normalization Process:
The strategy begins by normalizing price to create a consistent measurement scale. It calculates the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period (default 100 bars). The current close price is then normalized using the formula: (close - lowest_low) / (highest_high - lowest_low). This produces values between 0 and 1, allowing volatility analysis to work consistently across different instruments and price levels.
Volatility Detection:
A 14-period standard deviation is applied to the normalized price series. Standard deviation measures how much prices deviate from their average - higher values indicate volatility expansion, lower values indicate consolidation. The strategy uses ta.highestbars() and ta.lowestbars() functions to track when volatility reaches peaks and troughs over the detection length period (default 14 bars).
Channel Formation Logic:
When volatility crosses from a high level to a low level, this signals the beginning of a consolidation phase. The strategy records this moment using ta.crossover(upper, lower) and begins tracking the highest and lowest prices during the consolidation. These become the channel boundaries. The duration between the crossover and current bar must exceed 10 bars minimum to avoid false channels from brief volatility spikes. Channels are drawn using box objects with the recorded high/low boundaries.
Breakout Signal Generation:
Two detection modes are available:
Strong Closes Mode (default): Breakout occurs when the candle body midpoint math.avg(close, open) exceeds the channel boundary. This filters out wick-only breaks.
Any Touch Mode: Breakout occurs when the close price exceeds the boundary.
When price closes above the upper channel boundary, a bullish breakout signal generates. When price closes below the lower boundary, a bearish breakout signal generates. The channel is then removed from the chart.
ATR-Based Risk Management:
The strategy uses request.security() to fetch ATR values from a specified timeframe, which can differ from the chart timeframe. For example, on a 5-minute chart, you can use 1-minute ATR for more responsive calculations. The ATR is calculated using ta.atr(length) with a user-defined period (default 14).
Exit levels are calculated at the moment of breakout:
Long Entry Price = Upper channel boundary
Long TP1 = Entry + (ATR × TP1 Multiplier)
Long TP2 = Entry + (ATR × TP2 Multiplier)
Long SL = Entry - (ATR × SL Multiplier)
For short trades, the calculation inverts:
Short Entry Price = Lower channel boundary
Short TP1 = Entry - (ATR × TP1 Multiplier)
Short TP2 = Entry - (ATR × TP2 Multiplier)
Short SL = Entry + (ATR × SL Multiplier)
Trade Execution Logic:
When a breakout occurs, the strategy checks if trading hours filter is satisfied (if enabled) and if position size equals zero (no existing position). If volume confirmation is enabled, it also verifies that current volume exceeds 1.2 times the 20-period simple moving average.
If all conditions are met:
strategy.entry() opens a position using the user-defined number of contracts
strategy.exit() immediately places a stop loss order
The code monitors price against TP1 and TP2 levels on each bar
When price reaches TP1, strategy.close() closes the specified number of contracts (e.g., if you enter with 3 contracts and set TP1 close to 1, it closes 1 contract). When price reaches TP2, it closes all remaining contracts. If stop loss is hit first, the entire position exits via the strategy.exit() order.
Volume Analysis System:
The strategy uses ta.requestUpAndDownVolume(timeframe) to fetch up volume, down volume, and volume delta from a specified timeframe. Three display modes are available:
Volume Mode: Shows total volume as bars scaled relative to the 20-period average
Comparison Mode: Shows up volume and down volume as separate bars above/below the channel midline
Delta Mode: Shows net volume delta (up volume - down volume) as bars, positive values above midline, negative below
The volume confirmation logic compares breakout bar volume to the 20-period SMA. If volume ÷ average > 1.2, the breakout is classified as "confirmed." When volume confirmation is enabled in settings, only confirmed breakouts generate trades.
INPUT PARAMETERS:
Strategy Settings:
Number of Contracts: Fixed quantity to trade per signal (1-1000)
Require Volume Confirmation: Toggle to only trade signals with volume >120% of average
TP1 Close Contracts: Exact number of contracts to close at first target (1-1000)
Use Trading Hours Filter: Toggle to restrict trading to specified session
Trading Hours: Session input in HHMM-HHMM format (e.g., "0930-1600")
Main Settings:
Normalization Length: Lookback bars for high/low calculation (1-500, default 100)
Box Detection Length: Period for volatility peak/trough detection (1-100, default 14)
Strong Closes Only: Toggle between body midpoint vs close price for breakout detection
Nested Channels: Allow multiple overlapping channels vs single channel at a time
ATR TP/SL Settings:
ATR Timeframe: Source timeframe for ATR calculation (1, 5, 15, 60, etc.)
ATR Length: Smoothing period for ATR (1-100, default 14)
Take Profit 1 Multiplier: Distance from entry as multiple of ATR (0.1-10.0, default 2.0)
Take Profit 2 Multiplier: Distance from entry as multiple of ATR (0.1-10.0, default 3.0)
Stop Loss Multiplier: Distance from entry as multiple of ATR (0.1-10.0, default 1.0)
Enable Take Profit 2: Toggle second profit target on/off
VISUAL INDICATORS:
Channel boxes with semi-transparent fill showing consolidation zones
Green/red colored zones at channel boundaries indicating breakout areas
Volume bars displayed within channels using selected mode
TP/SL lines with labels showing both price level and distance in points
Entry signals marked with up/down triangles at breakout price
Strategy status table showing position, contracts, P&L, ATR values, and volume confirmation status
HOW TO USE:
For 2-Minute Scalping:
Set ATR Timeframe to "1" (1-minute), ATR Length to 12, TP1 Multiplier to 2.0, TP2 Multiplier to 3.0, SL Multiplier to 1.5. Enable volume confirmation and strong closes only. Use trading hours filter to avoid low-volume periods.
For 5-15 Minute Day Trading:
Set ATR Timeframe to match chart or use 5-minute, ATR Length to 14, TP1 Multiplier to 2.0, TP2 Multiplier to 3.5, SL Multiplier to 1.2. Volume confirmation recommended but optional.
For Hourly+ Swing Trading:
Set ATR Timeframe to 15-30 minute, ATR Length to 14-21, TP1 Multiplier to 2.5, TP2 Multiplier to 4.0, SL Multiplier to 1.5. Volume confirmation optional, nested channels can be enabled for multiple setups.
BACKTEST CONSIDERATIONS:
Strategy performs best during trending or volatility expansion phases
Consolidation-heavy or choppy markets produce more false signals
Shorter timeframes require wider stop loss multipliers due to noise
Commission and slippage significantly impact performance on sub-5-minute charts
Volume confirmation generally improves win rate but reduces trade frequency
ATR multipliers should be optimized for specific instrument characteristics
COMPATIBLE MARKETS:
Works on any instrument with price and volume data including forex pairs, stock indices, individual stocks, cryptocurrency, commodities, and futures contracts. Requires TradingView data feed that includes volume for volume confirmation features to function.
KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
Stop losses execute via strategy.exit() and may not fill at exact levels during gaps or extreme volatility
request.security() on lower timeframes requires higher-tier TradingView subscription
False breakouts inherent to breakout strategies cannot be completely eliminated
Performance varies significantly based on market regime (trending vs ranging)
Partial closing logic requires sufficient position size relative to TP1 close contracts setting

COT Comm OsciDescription
The COT Comm Osci is a sentiment oscillator based on net positions from the weekly Commitments of Traders (COT) report.
It transforms net positions of Commercials, Noncommercials, or Nonreportables into a 0–100 index.
A value of 100 = highest net position within the selected timeframe.
A value of 0 = lowest net position.
You can define three historical intervals (e.g. 26/ 52 / 156 weeks).
Tip
To improve your analysis, it's recommended to add a separate COT indicator that visualizes raw Long/Short or net positions directly. This helps interpret the oscillator in context.
This script is based on “Commercial Index–Buschi” by MagicEins and has been extended with new features and error handling.

HTF Anchored FanSimilar to an Anchored VWAP, this lets you click a bar on an Daily, Weekly, or Monthly chart to add an "Anchored Fan" which displays lines at up to 6 levels above and below the chosen Anchor Point. Useful to measure the retracement during swing moves.
You can reposition the fan by either hovering over the anchor or by clicking the name of the study to "activate" it, and then dragging. You can also change the Anchor Point in Settings.
By default the anchor uses the bar Close, but you can change this manually in settings OR you can use the fancy "Auto high/low" mode which is handy if you are mainly dropping the fan on local swing highs and lows.
The default line measures were chosen for ES (Futures) but the study should be usable with nearly anything as long as you adjust the settings to something appropriate for the ticker. If you want to use this on NQ, for example, it would be reasonable to multiple each of these settings by 3.5 or so.
NOTE: If the fan is way off the left side of the chart it's generally easiest to use Settings to move it back to close to "now".
Intraday Anchored FanSimilar to an Anchored VWAP, this lets you click a bar on an Intraday chart to add an "Anchored Fan" which displays lines at up to 6 levels above and below the chosen Anchor Point. Useful to measure the retracement during swing moves.

NOTE: If the fan is off the left side of the chart, one way to see the Anchor handle again easily is to switch to a higher timeframe; for example if you are on the 5min maybe use the 15min or hourly to find the handle -- if it is WAY off the left side (for example if you let many days pass without advancing it) it's generally easiest to use Settings to move it back to "now".

14:00 PM (Afternoon 4h Candle Open)
Along with up to three custom time slots.
All times used in the indicator are Eastern Standard time (New York local time) and will automatically adjust no matter your time zone.
Historical
When in historical mode, the indicator will keep the previous levels so you can easily visualize them and their relation to price.
You can also choose how many past levels you want to see. This allows you to back test only specific days/weeks.
Other Inputs
The indicator contains an adjustable offset, to modify how far the line extends depending on the current timeframe.
Each one of the above-mentioned levels can be turned on and off, including the custom times. You can also choose between plotting just the opening price, a vertical line separator, or both! All of these lines have adjustable styles (dotted, dashed or solid) and width.
They also have custom cut offs. You may choose specific cut off times for custom time slots (when to stop extending the lines), as well as for AM (before noon) default levels and PM (after noon) default levels.
The indicator also allows to show text labels next to these lines, which is set by default but can be turned off. Custom times also include custom text options.

Captain Backtest Model [TFO]Created by @imjesstwoone and @mickey1984, this trade model attempts to capture the expansion from the 10:00-14:00 EST 4h candle using just 3 simple steps. All of the information presented in this description has been outlined by its creators, all I did was translate it to Pine Script. All core settings of the trade model may be edited so that users can test several variations, however this description will cover its default, intended behavior using NQ 5m as an example.
Step 1 is to identify our Price Range. In this case, we are concerned with the highest high and the lowest low created from 6:00-10:00 EST.
Step 2 is to wait for either the high or low of said range to be taken out. Whichever side gets taken first determines the long/short bias for the remainder of the Trade Window (i.e. if price takes the range high, bias is long, and vice versa). Bias must be determined by 11:15 EST, otherwise no trades will be taken. This filter is intended to weed out "choppy" trading days.
Step 3 is to wait for a retracement and enter with a close through the previous candle's high (if long biased) or low (if short biased). There are a couple toggleable criteria that we use to define a retracement; one is checking for opposite close candles that indicate a pullback; another is checking if price took the previous candle's low (if long biased) or high (if short biased).
This trade model was initially tested for index futures, particularly ES and NQ, using a 5m chart, however this indicator allows us to backtest any symbol on any timeframe. Creators @imjesstwoone and @mickey1984 specified a 5 point stop loss on ES and a 25 point stop loss on NQ with their testing.
I've personally found some success in backtesting NQ 5m using a 25 point stop loss and 75 point profit target (3:1 R). Enabling the Use Fixed R:R parameter will ensure that these stops and targets are utilized, otherwise it will enter and hold the position until the close of the Trade Window.
Show Extended Hours (Futures & Crypto)OVERVIEW
This indicator mimics TradingViews "Extended trading hours" background color settings. It is most useful on symbols that do not conventionally have extended hours, but are available to trade during those hours (ie. Futures and Crypto). Because market participation (ie. volatility) in a given symbol can change dramatically at or near these transitions, seeing conventional market open / closures expedites price action context around these transitions.

Pin Candle DetectionPin candles are a variation of hammer candles that are useful in technical analysis . In particular, when combined with volume profile studies, they can be a powerful set up for long entries or other decision making.
For example, when looking at volume profiles, a long entry would be a fair value area (i.e. 40%) below the close of a pin candle. When combined with a support level , the set up is stronger.
While most scripts look for hammer candles, pin candles are somewhat different in that the length of the wick is significant.
This script and its parameters was built for ES futures 15 min chart in mind.
This script is unique in that it allows for the below parameters to be adjusted to suit other instruments and timeframes:
1. Fib level: Candle must close within a certain retracement level). My preference is 0.55. Some traders like 0.5, while others prefer 0.33
2. Wick length: Pin candles differ from pure hammers in that the length of the wick must be significant. My preference is 7 points on ES (as in $ and not ticks)
Add this script to your alerts to no longer miss these set ups.
30 Second Futures Session Open RangeThis indicator displays 30 second opening ranges from Globex, Europe, and RTH sessions.
From the RTH session range, it also displays infinitely generating Price Targets based on a % of the opening range size.
I am retrieving the 30 second data using the new "request.security_lower_tf()" function.
The importance of these levels is based on the idea that when the market opens, algorithms establish their positions within the first 30 seconds.
These areas can also be seen as potential areas of support and resistance throughout the sessions.
Enjoy!
