Too Many Cooks trend indicatorToo many Cooks in The Kitchen
You have probably heard the adage "Too many cooks spoils the broth" before. The meaning behind it is obviously that when to many people are trying to work on the same task at once it simply devolves into a fight for control and creates a mess of the situation. But is this true for indicators is the question I had and thus I made this indicator, a simple combination of 8 random trend finding indicators I assembled (A list of these indicators and their authors will be available at the bottom of this page) . Is it any good though ? In short yes, it is a decent trend finding indicator and could likely be used in your strategy in the place of your current trend finding indicator if you so wish. However much of the versatility of the individual indicators IS lost and would not be possible to get back in this big mess of a broth, so this indicator will not be the be all end all of trend indicators nor will it be a free money machine like you may be expecting looking at the list of included indicators so the adage was correct to a degree.

coates moving averages (cma)This indicator uses three moving averages:
2 period low simple ma
2 period high simple ma
9 period least squares ma
The trend is determined by the angle of the moving averages, current close relative the the 9 least squares ma (lsm) and the current close relative to the prior two periods high and low.
When there are consecutive closes inside the prior two candles high and low then a range is signaled:
In ranges the buy zone is between the lowest low and the lowest close of the current range. The sell zone is between the highest high and the highest close. The zones are adjusted as long as the new close is within the prior two candles range:
When price closes above the 2 high ma and the 9 lsm then a bull trend is signaled if all moving averages are angled upward (as seen at #4 in the chart above and #1 the chart below ). If the 9 lsm and / or the 2 low ma continue to angle downward, following a close above the 2 high ma and 9 lsm, then a prolonged range or reversal is expected (#2 in the chart below):
During a bull trend the buy zone is between the 2 low ma and the 9 lsm. The profit target is the 2 high ma:
During dip buying opportunities price should resist closing below the 9 lsm. If there is one close below the 9 lsm then it is a canary in the coalmine that tells us to proceed with caution. This will often signal a range, based on the conditions outlined above. To avoid a prolonged range, or reversal, price needs to immediately react in the direction of the prevailing trend:
If the moving averages are angled down and the most recent close is below the 2 low ma and 9 lsm then trend is fully bearish:
During a bear trend the short zone is between the 2 high ma and 9 lsm. The profit target is the 2 low ma:
When the 2 high ma angles down and the 2 low ma angles up while price closes inside both mas then it indicates a cma squeeze:
Volatility is expected in the direction of the breakout following the squeeze. In this situation traps / shakeouts are common. If there is a wick outside the cma, with a close inside, then it indicates a trap / shakeout. If there is a close outside the 2 high / low ma then it signals a breakout.
A trend is considered balanced when the 9 lsm is roughly equidistant from the 2 low and 2 high mas. If the 9 lsm crosses the 2 high or 2 low ma then it signals exhaustion / imbalance.
For a stop loss I use the prior three periods low, for bull trends, and the prior three periods high for bear trends. I would expect other reliable stops, such as the parabolic sar or bill williams fractal, to be effective as well. The default moving averages should be very effective on all timeframes and assets classes, however this indicator was developed for bitcoin with a focus on higher timeframes such as the 4h, daily and weekly.
As with any other technical indicator there will be bad signals. Proceed with caution and never risk more than you are willing to lose.
VPA ANALYSIS VPA Analysis provide the indications for various conditions as per the Volume Spread Analysis concept. The various legends are provided below
LEGEND DETAILS
UT1 - Upthrust Bar: This will be widespread Bar on high Volume closing on the low. This normally happens after an up move. Here the smart money move the price to the High and then quickly brings to the Low trapping many retail trader who rushed into in order not to miss the bullish move. This is a bearish Signal
UT2 -Upthrust Bar Confirmation: A widespread Down Bar following a Upthrust Bar. This confirms the weakness of the Upthrust Bar. Expect the stock to move down
Confirms . This is a Bearish Signal
PUT - Pseudo Upthrust: An Upthrust Bar in bar action but the volume remains average. This still indicates weakness. Indicate Possible Bearishness
PUC -Pseudo Upthrust Confirmation: widespread Bar after a pseudo–Upthrust Bar confirms the weakness of the Pseudo Upthrust Bar
Confirms Bearishness
BC - Buying Climax: A very wide Spread bar on ultra-High Volume closing at the top. Such a Bar indicates the climatic move in an uptrend. This Bar traps many retailers as the uptrend ends and reverses quickly. Confirms Bearishness

ND - No demand in uptrend: This bar indicates that there is no demand. In an uptrend this indicates weakness. Bearish Signal
ND - No Demand: This bar indicates that there is no demand. This can occur in any part of the Trend. In all place other than in an uptrend this just indicates just weakness
ED - Effort to Move Down: Widespread Bar closing down on High volume or above average volume . The smart money is pushing the prices down. Bearish Signal
EDF - Effort to Move Down Failed: Widespread / above average spread Bar closing up on High volume or above average volume appearing after ‘Effort to move down” bar.
This indicates that the Effort to move the pries down has failed. Bullish signal
SV - Stopping Volume: A high volume medium to widespread Bar closing in the upper middle part in a down trend indicates that smart money is buying. This is an indication that the down trend is likely to end soon. Indicates strength
ST1 - Strength Returning 1: Strength seen returning after a down trend. High volume adds to strength. Indicates Strength

[blackcat] L1 Composite RSI Trend OscillatorLevel: 1
Background
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a technical indicator for analyzing financial markets. It is intended to represent the current and historical strength or weakness of a trading pair or a market based on the closing prices of a last trading period.
Function
L1 Composite RSI Trend Oscillator utilizes candles to indicate trend. E.g. yellow candles for bull and fuchsia candles for bear. NOTE: it is inverted to RSI from bull bear perspective. Colorful RSI with yellow indicating bull and fuchsia indicating bear.
Key Signal
lwr1 --> trend oscillator fast line (lwr1 >= lwr2 for bear)
lwr2 --> trend oscillator slow line (lwr1 < lwr2 for bull)
botzone --> bottom zone indicates oversold with green
topzone --> top zone indicates overbought with red
longentry --> long entry signal
shortentry --> short entry signal
Pros and Cons
Pros:
1. combines both the benefit of RSI response and trend oscillator candles
2. divergence can be observed easily
Cons:
1. It may satruate for extreme conditions of long and short.
2. Not accurate for long and short entries and need filtering out noise and fake signal.
Remarks
NA
Readme
In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.

Elder impulse system with double exponential moving average dema
This version of impulse uses the double exponential moving average instead of the typical ema both to calculate macd and the moving slow and fast moving average that are plotted.
The impulse system :
The Impulse System combines two simple but powerful indicators.
One measures market inertia, the other its momentum. When both
point in the same direction, they identify an impulse worth following.
We get an entry signal when both indicators get in gear.
The Impulse System uses an exponential moving average to find
uptrends and downtrends. When the EMA rises, it shows that inertia
favors the bulls. When EMA falls, inertia works for the bears. The sec-
ond component is MACD-Histogram, an oscillator whose slope reflects
changes of power among bulls or bears. When MACD-Histogram rises,
it shows that bulls are becoming stronger. When it falls, it shows that
bears are growing stronger.
The Impulse System flags those bars where both the inertia and the
momentum point in the same direction. When both the EMA and
MACD-Histogram rise, they show that bulls are roaring and the uptrend
is accelerating.

The SafeZone Stop :
Once in a trade, where should you put your stop? This is one of the
hardest questions in technical analysis. After answering it, you’ll face
an even harder one—when and where to move that stop with the pas-
sage of time. Put a stop too close and it’ll get whacked by some mean-
ingless intraday swing. Put it too far, and you’ll have very skimpy
protection.
The Parabolic System, described in Trading for a Living, tried to
tackle this problem by moving stops closer to the market each day,
accelerating whenever a stock or a commodity reached a new extreme.
The trouble with Parabolic was that it kept moving even if the market
stayed flat and often got hit by meaningless noise.
SafeZone trails prices with stops tight enough to protect
capital but remote enough to keep clear of most random fluctuations.
Engineers design filters to suppress noise and allow the signal to come
through. If the trend is the signal, then the countertrend motion is the
noise. When the trend is up, we can define noise as that part of each
day’s range that protrudes below the previous day’s low. When the trend
is down, we can define noise as that part of each day’s range that pro-
trudes above the previous day’s high. SafeZone measures market noise
and places stops at a multiple of noise level away from the market.
We can make our lookback period 100 days or so if we want to aver-
age long-term market behavior.
SafeZone offers an original approach to placing stops. It monitors
changes in prices and adapts stops to the current levels of activity. It
places stops at individually tailored distances rather than at obvious
support and resistance levels.
Absolute Strength MTF IndicatorIntroduction
The non-signal version of the absolute strength indicator from fxcodebase.com requested by ernie76 . This indicator originally from mt4 aim to estimate the bullish/bearish force of the market by using various methods.
The Indicator
Two lines are plotted, a bull line (blue) representing the bullish/buying force and a bear one (red) representing the bearish/selling force, when the bull line is greater than the bear line the market is considered to be strongly bullish, else strongly bearish.
The indicator use various method, Rsi, stochastic, adx. The Rsi method is the one by default.
The stochastic method is less reactive but smoother
The Adx method is way different, while the other two methods make the bull and bear lines somewhat uncorrelated, the adx method focus more on the overall market strength than individual buyer/seller strength.
The smoothing method use 3 different filters, SMA, EMA and LSMA, LSMA is more reactive than the two previous one while EMA is just more computer efficient.
It is possible to use price data of different time frames for the calculation of the indicator.
Stochastic method with 4 hour price close as source.
Conclusion
A classic indicator who can be derived into a lot of ways using a more adaptive architecture or recursion. Hope you find it a use :)
A big thanks to ernie76 for the request and the support/testing of the indicator
Feel free to pm me for any request.
Ichimoku Kinko Hyo: Basic StrategyIchimoku Kinko Hyo: Basic Strategy
Entry/Exit orders are placed when three basic signals are triggered.
Ichimoku Signals:
1) Tenkan-Sen/Kijun-Sen Cross
Bullish: Tenkan-Sen is above the Kijun-Sen.
Bearish: Tenkan-Sen is below the Kijun-Sen.
2) Chikou-Span Cross
Bullish: Chikou-Span is above the close of 26 bars ago.
Bearish: Chikou-Span is below the close of 26 bars ago.
3) Price versus Kumo Cloud
Bullish: Close is above the Kumo Cloud.
Bearish: Close is below the Kumo Cloud.
Notes:
1) Long-only or short-only direction is feasible by checkbox. Stop and reverse strategy is taken by default.
2) Built-in Ichimoku indicator is strictly wrong because of counting one extra bar for all Ichimoku components.
Including the current bar like moving average is correct way in Japan. This problem is fixed in my script.

2. **Table shows**: "IB Data: ⚠️ INVALID TF" with yellow background
3. **Alert available**: "⚠️ INTRABAR CONFIG ERROR"
4. **Score impact**: Intrabar points (up to 5) are NOT added
**Example - 2 Minute Chart:**
```
VALID selections: 1T, 5T, 10T, 25T, 50T, 100T (any tick)
1S, 5S, 10S, 15S, 30S (any second)

# 🎨 VISUAL FILTERING (v8 NEW!)
## The Problem (v7)
Too many sweep and absorption markers cluttered the chart with low-quality signals.
## The Solution (v8)
**Quality filters** - only show sweeps/absorption that MATTER.
### Sweep Quality Score
A sweep needs confluence to display:
```
+1.5 = In FVG Zone
+1.5 = In Order Block
+1.0 = Strong volume
+0.5 = In session
+1.0 = Intrabar confirmation
───────────────────
MIN NEEDED: 2.0 to show
```
### Absorption Quality Score
```
+1.5 = In FVG Zone
+1.5 = In Order Block
+1.0 = Tier signal present
+0.5 = In session
+0.5 = CVD confirmation
───────────────────
MIN NEEDED: 2.0 to show
```
### Settings
```
VISUAL FILTERS:
├── Only Show Quality Sweeps: ON (default)
├── Only Show Quality Absorption: ON (default)
├── Min Sweep Quality Score: 2.0
└── Min Absorption Quality Score: 2.0
Turn OFF filters to see ALL signals (not recommended)
```
---
# 📈 CVD IMPLEMENTATION (v8 FIXED)
## What Changed
### v7 Issues:
- CVD accumulated forever (overflow risk)
- Short slope calculation (only 3 bars)
- No session reset
### v8 Fixes:
```
1. SESSION RESET: CVD resets at London/NY open
2. PROPER SLOPE: Calculated over 5 bars
3. STDEV COMPARISON: Strong/Extreme = slope > 1-2 stdev
```
## CVD Readings in Table
| Display | Meaning | Score Contribution |
|---------|---------|-------------------|
| 🔥 BULL | Extreme bullish momentum | +1.5 total |
| 🔥 BEAR | Extreme bearish momentum | +1.5 total |
| ↑ BULL | Strong bullish trend | +1.0 total |
| ↓ BEAR | Strong bearish trend | +1.0 total |
| bull | Bullish bias | +0.5 |
| bear | Bearish bias | +0.5 |
| — | Neutral/mixed | +0 |

### Automatic Validation (v8 NEW!)
The script now automatically detects invalid intrabar configurations:
**When Intrabar TF is INVALID:**
1. **Yellow warning label** appears on chart: "⚠️ INTRABAR TF INVALID"
2. **Table shows**: "IB Data: ⚠️ INVALID TF" with yellow background
3. **Alert available**: "⚠️ INTRABAR CONFIG ERROR"
4. **Score impact**: Intrabar points (up to 5) are NOT added
**Example - 2 Minute Chart:**
```
VALID selections: 1T, 5T, 10T, 25T, 50T, 100T (any tick)
1S, 5S, 10S, 15S, 30S (any second)
1 (1-minute only)

# 🎨 VISUAL FILTERING (v8 NEW!)
## The Problem (v7)
Too many sweep and absorption markers cluttered the chart with low-quality signals.
## The Solution (v8)
**Quality filters** - only show sweeps/absorption that MATTER.
### Sweep Quality Score
A sweep needs confluence to display:
```
+1.5 = In FVG Zone
+1.5 = In Order Block
+1.0 = Strong volume
+0.5 = In session
+1.0 = Intrabar confirmation
───────────────────
MIN NEEDED: 2.0 to show
```
### Absorption Quality Score
```
+1.5 = In FVG Zone
+1.5 = In Order Block
+1.0 = Tier signal present
+0.5 = In session
+0.5 = CVD confirmation
───────────────────
MIN NEEDED: 2.0 to show
```
### Settings
```
VISUAL FILTERS:
├── Only Show Quality Sweeps: ON (default)
├── Only Show Quality Absorption: ON (default)
├── Min Sweep Quality Score: 2.0
└── Min Absorption Quality Score: 2.0
Turn OFF filters to see ALL signals (not recommended)
```
---
# 📈 CVD IMPLEMENTATION (v8 FIXED)
## What Changed
### v7 Issues:
- CVD accumulated forever (overflow risk)
- Short slope calculation (only 3 bars)
- No session reset
### v8 Fixes:
```
1. SESSION RESET: CVD resets at London/NY open
2. PROPER SLOPE: Calculated over 5 bars
3. STDEV COMPARISON: Strong/Extreme = slope > 1-2 stdev
```
## CVD Readings in Table
| Display | Meaning | Score Contribution |
|---------|---------|-------------------|
| 🔥 BULL | Extreme bullish momentum | +1.5 total |
| 🔥 BEAR | Extreme bearish momentum | +1.5 total |
| ↑ BULL | Strong bullish trend | +1.0 total |
| ↓ BEAR | Strong bearish trend | +1.0 total |
| bull | Bullish bias | +0.5 |
| bear | Bearish bias | +0.5 |
| — | Neutral/mixed | +0 |

# ⛔ DO NOT TRADE
1. **Score below threshold** - No signal shown = no trade
2. **Outside session** - Unless you've disabled session filter
3. **Delta conflicts** - Bearish candle but buy dominant delta
4. **No intrabar data** - Shows "0 bars" in IB Data
5. **CVD strongly opposite** - 🔥 BEAR on a long signal
6. **After major news** - Wait for dust to settle
7. **Low volume overall** - Market too quiet

# 🔧 TROUBLESHOOTING
| Issue | Solution |
|-------|----------|
| **Yellow "INVALID TF" warning** | Your intrabar TF is >= chart TF. Select LOWER! |
| **IB Data shows "⚠️ INVALID TF"** | Same as above - pick 1T, 1S, or 1 for most charts |
| No signals appearing | Lower Min Score threshold |
| Too many signals | Raise Min Score threshold |
| Score always 0 | Check if candle is tiered (meets point threshold) |
| Sweeps not showing | Check quality filter settings or lower threshold |
| Table transparent | ❌ Fixed in v8 - table is now solid |
| CVD not making sense | Now resets at session open - cleaner readings |
| Wrong tier thresholds | Adjust for your instrument (see setup guide) |
| Tick TF not available | Requires TradingView Premium+ subscription |

*WIN AT ALL COST Edition | Trust The Score*
Structure Analysis + Hammer Alert# Structure Resistance + Hammer Alert
## 📊 Indicator Overview
This indicator integrates Structure Breakout Analysis with Candlestick Pattern Recognition, helping traders identify market trend reversal points and strong momentum signals. Through visual markers and background colors, you can quickly grasp the bullish/bearish market structure.
---
## 🎯 Core Features
### 1️⃣ Structure Resistance System
- Auto-plot Previous High/Low: Automatically marks key support/resistance based on pivot points
- Structure Breakout Detection: Shows "BULL" when price breaks above previous high, "BEAR" when breaking below previous low
- Trend Background Color: Green background for bullish structure, red background for bearish structure
### 2️⃣ Bullish Momentum Candles (Hammer Patterns)
Detects candles with long lower shadows, indicating strong buying pressure at lows:
- 💪Strong Bull (Bullish Hammer): Green marker, bullish close with significant lower shadow
- 💪Weak Bull (Bearish Hammer): Teal marker, bearish close but strong lower shadow
### 3️⃣ Bearish Momentum Candles (Inverted Hammer/Shooting Star)
Detects candles with long upper shadows, indicating strong selling pressure at highs:
- 💪Weak Bear (Bullish Inverted Hammer): Orange marker, bullish close but significant upper shadow
- 💪Strong Bear (Shooting Star): Red marker, bearish close with significant upper shadow
### 4️⃣ Smart Marker Sizing
Markers automatically adjust size based on current trend:
- With-Trend Signals: Larger markers (e.g., hammer in bullish trend)
- Counter-Trend Signals: Smaller markers (e.g., shooting star in bullish trend)
- Neutral Trend: Medium-sized markers
---
## ⚙️ Parameter Settings
### Structure Resistance Parameters
- Swing Length: Default 5, higher values = clearer structure but fewer signals
- Show Lines/Labels: Toggle on/off options
### Bullish Momentum (Hammer) Parameters
- Lower Shadow/Body Ratio: Default 2.0, lower shadow must be 2x body size
- Upper Shadow/Body Ratio Limit: Default 0.2, upper shadow cannot be too long
- Body Position Ratio: Default 2.0, ensures body is at the top of candle
### Bearish Momentum (Inverted Hammer) Parameters
- Upper Shadow/Body Ratio: Default 2.0, upper shadow must be 2x body size
- Lower Shadow/Body Ratio Limit: Default 0.2, lower shadow cannot be too long
- Body Position Ratio: Default 2.0, ensures body is at the bottom of candle
### Filter & Display Settings
- Minimum Body Size: Filters out doji-like candles with tiny bodies
- Pattern Type Toggles: Show/hide different pattern types individually
- Background Transparency: Adjust background color intensity (higher = more transparent)
- Label Distance: Adjust marker distance from candles
---
## 📈 Usage Guidelines
### Trading Signal Interpretation
**Long Signals (Strongest to Weakest):**
1. Bullish Structure + Bullish Hammer (💪Strong Bull) → Strongest long signal
2. Bullish Structure + Bearish Hammer (💪Weak Bull) → Secondary long signal
3. Bearish Structure + Hammer → Potential reversal signal
**Short Signals (Strongest to Weakest):**
1. Bearish Structure + Shooting Star (💪Strong Bear) → Strongest short signal
2. Bearish Structure + Bullish Inverted Hammer (💪Weak Bear) → Secondary short signal
3. Bullish Structure + Shooting Star → Potential reversal signal
### Practical Tips
✅ Trend Following: Prioritize large marker signals (aligned with trend)
✅ Structure Confirmation: Wait for structure breakout before entry to avoid false breaks
✅ Multiple Timeframes: Confirm trend direction with higher timeframes
⚠️ Counter-Trend Caution: Small marker signals (counter-trend) require stricter risk management
---
## 🔔 Alert Setup
This indicator provides 9 alert conditions:
- Individual Patterns: Bullish Hammer, Bearish Hammer, Bullish Inverted Hammer, Shooting Star
- Combined Signals: Bullish Momentum, Bearish Momentum, Bull/Bear Momentum
- Structure Breakouts: Bullish Structure Break, Bearish Structure Break
---
## 💡 FAQ
**Q: Why do hammers sometimes appear without markers?**
A: Check "Minimum Body Size" setting - the candle body may be too small and filtered out
**Q: Too many or too few markers?**
A: Adjust "Lower Shadow/Body Ratio" or "Upper Shadow/Body Ratio" parameters - higher ratios = stricter conditions
**Q: How to see only the strongest signals?**
A: Disable "Bearish Hammer" and "Bullish Inverted Hammer", keep only "Bullish Hammer" and "Shooting Star"
**Q: Can it be used on all timeframes?**
A: Yes, but recommended for 15-minute and higher timeframes - shorter timeframes have more noise

YM Ultimate SNIPER v7# YM Ultimate SNIPER v7 - Documentation & Trading Guide
## 🎯 INTRABAR EDITION | Order Blocks + Liquidity Sweeps + IFVG + INTRABAR ANALYSIS
**TARGET: 3-7 High-Confluence Trades per Day**
**Philosophy: "Zones That Matter" + "See Inside The Candle"**
---
## ⚡ WHAT'S NEW IN v7
### Major Additions: INTRABAR ANALYSIS ENGINE
| Feature | Description | Edge It Provides |
|---------|-------------|------------------|
| **Intrabar Delta** | REAL buy/sell pressure from lower TF | Far more accurate than estimated delta |
| **Intrabar Momentum** | Direction consistency within bar | See if candle formed through conviction |
| **Absorption Detection** | High vol + low price movement | Spot institutional accumulation/distribution |
| **Internal Sweeps** | Stop hunts INSIDE candles | Catch hidden liquidity grabs |
| **Volume Distribution** | Where volume clustered in bar | TOP/MID/BOT volume clustering |
### The Intrabar Advantage
**Problem with Standard Analysis:**
- You only see the final OHLC of each candle
- Delta estimation is educated guesswork
- Internal price action is invisible
- Stop hunts inside bars go undetected
**Solution with Intrabar Analysis:**
- `request.security_lower_tf()` gives us the INSIDE view
- See actual lower timeframe candles within each bar
- Calculate TRUE delta from actual price direction
- Detect sweeps and reversals hidden from current timeframe
---
## 🔬 INTRABAR ANALYSIS DEEP DIVE
### How It Works
When you're on a 5-minute chart, intrabar analysis requests 1-minute data within each 5-minute bar. This gives us 5 sub-candles to analyze within each parent candle.
```
5-MIN CANDLE (What you normally see):
┌────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ OPEN ──────── CLOSE │
│ │
└────────────────────────────────┘
INTRABAR VIEW (What v7 sees):
┌────────────────────────────────┐
│ 🕐1 🕐2 🕐3 🕐4 🕐5 │
│ ▲ ▼ ▲ ▲ ▲ │
│ │ │ │ │ │ │
│ Each 1-min candle analyzed │
└────────────────────────────────┘
```
### Intrabar Delta (IB Delta)
**What It Is:**
Real buy/sell pressure calculated from actual lower timeframe candle directions.
**Why It's Better:**
- Standard delta: Estimated from close position within bar
- Intrabar delta: Calculated from 5+ actual candles with known direction
**Calculation:**
```
For each intrabar candle:
├── If bullish (close > open): More weight to buy volume
├── If bearish (close < open): More weight to sell volume
├── Volume distributed by close position within each micro-candle
└── Summed across all intrabar candles = TRUE DELTA
```
**Grades:**
| IB Delta % | Grade | Meaning |
|------------|-------|---------|
| 78%+ | 🔥 EXTREME | One side has overwhelming control |
| 70-77% | ✓✓ STRONG | Clear directional bias |
| 62-69% | ✓ DOMINANT | Healthy dominance |
| <62% | — NEUTRAL | Mixed/uncertain |
---
### Intrabar Momentum (IB Momentum)
**What It Is:**
The percentage of intrabar candles moving in the same direction.
**Why It Matters:**
A bullish candle could form through:
1. **High momentum:** 4 of 5 sub-candles bullish = Strong conviction
2. **Low momentum:** 2 bullish, 2 bearish, 1 bullish = Choppy formation
**Calculation:**
```
IB Momentum = max(bullish_count, bearish_count) / total_intrabar_candles
Example (5-min bar with 1-min intrabar):
├── 1st minute: Bullish ✓
├── 2nd minute: Bullish ✓
├── 3rd minute: Bearish ✗
├── 4th minute: Bullish ✓
├── 5th minute: Bullish ✓
└── IB Momentum = 4/5 = 80% BULLISH
```
**Thresholds:**
| IB Momentum % | Classification | Signal Quality |
|---------------|----------------|----------------|
| 75%+ | 🔥 STRONG | Very high conviction |
| 60-74% | ✓ CONFIRMED | Good directional bias |
| <60% | MIXED | Choppy, low conviction |
---
### Absorption Detection
**What It Is:**
Institutional accumulation/distribution signature - high volume with little price movement.
**The Theory:**
When institutions accumulate (buy), they absorb selling without moving price much:
- Retail sells → Institution buys at limit prices
- Volume spikes but price stays flat
- Once accumulation complete → price explodes up
**Detection Logic:**
```
ABSORPTION = High Volume + Low Price Movement + Volume Clustering
Conditions:
├── Volume per point > 1.5x average
├── Price movement < 60% of average range
├── Volume clusters in one zone (TOP/MID/BOT)
└── Cluster percentage >= 65% threshold
```
**Direction:**
- **BULL ABS:** Volume clustered at BOT + net buy delta = Buying at lows
- **BEAR ABS:** Volume clustered at TOP + net sell delta = Selling at highs
**Visual:** ✕ marker below (bull) or above (bear) the candle
---
### Internal Sweeps (Hidden Liquidity Grabs)
**What It Is:**
Stop hunts that happen INSIDE a candle - invisible on current timeframe.
**The Setup:**
```
INTERNAL BULLISH SWEEP:
┌─────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ First Half: Second Half: │
│ ▲▼▲▼ ▲▲▲ │
│ Forms lows Reverses UP │
│ ↓ ↑ │
│ SWEEP REJECTION │
└─────────────────────────────────┘
= Hidden liquidity grab at lows, bullish
```
**Detection:**
```
Internal Bull Sweep:
├── Early intrabar candles form a low
├── Later intrabar candles sweep below that low
├── Final intrabar candles close back above
├── Parent candle closes green
└── = Hidden sweep, bullish reversal
Internal Bear Sweep:
├── Early intrabar candles form a high
├── Later intrabar candles sweep above that high
├── Final intrabar candles close back below
├── Parent candle closes red
└── = Hidden sweep, bearish reversal
```
**Visual:** "iS" marker (intrabar Sweep) on the candle
---
### Volume Distribution
**What It Is:**
Where volume clustered within the parent candle - TOP, MID, or BOT third.
**Why It Matters:**
- **BOT clustering + bullish delta:** Institutions buying at lows (bullish)
- **TOP clustering + bearish delta:** Institutions selling at highs (bearish)
- **MID clustering:** Balanced/uncertain
**Calculation:**
```
Divide parent candle into 3 zones:
├── TOP third: high - (range/3)
├── MID third: middle zone
└── BOT third: low + (range/3)
For each intrabar candle:
├── Calculate midpoint
├── Assign volume to TOP/MID/BOT based on midpoint
└── Sum volumes by zone
```

## 🔧 INTRABAR SETTINGS GUIDE
### Intrabar Timeframe Selection
| Chart TF | Recommended Intrabar TF | Sub-candles |
|----------|------------------------|-------------|
| 1 min | 1 (same) | Limited data |
| 3 min | 1 | 3 candles |
| 5 min | 1 | 5 candles |
| 15 min | 1 or 5 | 15 or 3 candles |
| 30 min | 5 | 6 candles |
| 1 hour | 5 or 15 | 12 or 4 candles |
**Rule of Thumb:** Lower intrabar TF = more data = more accurate
### Parameter Tuning
**Absorption Threshold (Default: 65%)**
```
Lower (50-60%): More absorption signals, some false positives
Standard (65%): Balanced detection
Higher (70-80%): Fewer signals, higher quality
```
**Intrabar Momentum Min (Default: 60%)**
```
Lower (50-55%): Accepts mixed candles as directional
Standard (60%): Requires clear majority
Higher (70-80%): Requires strong conviction
```
**Intrabar Delta Weight (Default: 1.5)**
```
Lower (0.5-1.0): Intrabar delta contributes less to score
Standard (1.5): Full contribution
Higher (2.0-3.0): Intrabar delta heavily weighted
```

## ⛔ DO NOT TRADE v7
All previous rules PLUS:
- IB Delta strongly conflicts with signal direction
- IB Momentum shows opposite direction at 75%+
- Absorption detected in OPPOSITE direction
- Score inflated only by intrabar (no structure)
- Intrabar data unavailable (empty array)
---
## 📝 TECHNICAL NOTES v7
### Compatibility
- **Pine Script v6** (required for `request.security_lower_tf()`)
- **Works on**: YM, MYM, NQ, MNQ, ES, MES, GC, MGC, BTC
- **Chart Type**: Standard candlestick (not Renko/Heikin Ashi)
- **Timeframes**: 1-minute to 4-hour recommended
- **Tick Charts**: Use 1-minute intrabar TF
### Performance Notes
- Intrabar analysis adds computational overhead
- If chart loads slowly, try higher intrabar TF
- `request.security_lower_tf()` returns array of data
- Empty arrays indicate no lower TF data available
### Timeframe Limitations
```
request.security_lower_tf() works when:
├── Intrabar TF < Chart TF (e.g., 1 min intrabar on 5 min chart)
└── Chart receives enough data from lower TF
Does NOT work when:
├── Intrabar TF >= Chart TF
├── Tick charts with minute intrabar (use seconds or same)
└── Very old historical data
```

## 🔧 TROUBLESHOOTING v7
| Issue | Solution |
|-------|----------|
| No intrabar data | Lower your chart TF or raise intrabar TF |
| IB Delta always neutral | Check intrabar TF is lower than chart TF |
| Too many absorption signals | Raise absorption threshold to 70%+ |
| Missing internal sweeps | More common on volatile markets |
| Slow chart loading | Use higher intrabar TF (5 instead of 1) |
| IB section not in table | Enable "Show Intrabar Metrics" |
| Conflicting signals | Trust intrabar data over standard delta |
