RSI & EMA IndicatorMulti-Timeframe EMA & RSI Analysis with Trend Merging Detection
Overview
This script provides traders with a multi-timeframe analysis tool that simplifies trend detection, momentum confirmation, and potential trend shifts. It integrates Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) across Daily, Weekly, and Monthly timeframes, helping traders assess both long-term and short-term market conditions at a glance.
This script is a simplification and modification of the EMA Cheatsheet by MarketMoves, reducing chart clutter while adding EMA merging detection to highlight potential trend reversals or breakouts.
Originality and Usefulness
Unlike traditional indicators, which focus on a single timeframe, this script combines multiple timeframes in a single view to offer a comprehensive market outlook.
What Makes This Indicator Unique?
This Indicator to Combine RSI and EMA Clouds for Multiple Timeframes
Multi-Timeframe Trend Analysis in One Visual Tool
EMA Merging Detection to Spot Trend Shifts Early
Momentum Validation Using RSI Across Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Timeframes
Reduces Chart Clutter While Providing Actionable Trade Signals
I couldn't find a TradingView indicator that displayed RSI and EMA clouds together across Daily, Weekly, and Monthly timeframes. This tool bridges that gap, allowing traders to see trend strength and momentum shifts across key timeframes without switching charts.
How the Script Works
1. Trend Direction via EMAs
The script tracks Short-term (5 & 12-period), Medium-term (34 & 50-period), and Long-term (72 & 89-period) EMAs across Daily, Weekly, and Monthly timeframes.
Bullish trend: When faster EMAs are above slower EMAs.
Bearish trend: When faster EMAs are below slower EMAs.
A visual table simplifies trend recognition with:
Green cells for bullish alignment.
Red cells for bearish alignment.
This color-coded system allows traders to quickly assess market momentum across different timeframes without excessive manual analysis.
2. Momentum Confirmation with RSI
The RSI(14) values for Daily, Weekly, and Monthly timeframes are displayed alongside the EMAs.
RSI above 70 suggests overbought conditions.
RSI below 30 suggests oversold conditions.
By combining RSI with EMA trends, traders can confirm whether momentum supports the trend direction or if the market is losing strength.
3. Trend Shift Detection (EMA Merging Mechanism)
A unique feature of this script is EMA merging detection, which occurs when:
The short, medium, and long-term EMAs come within 0.5% of the price.
This often signals trend reversals, breakouts, or consolidations.
When this condition is met, a warning signal appears, alerting traders to potential market shifts.
Who This Indicator Is For?
This script is designed for traders who want to track trends across multiple timeframes while keeping a clean and simplified chart.
Swing & Position Traders – Identify strong trends and potential momentum shifts for longer-term trades.
Trend Followers – Stay aligned with major market trends and avoid trading against momentum.
Day Traders – Use the Daily timeframe for entries while referencing higher timeframes for confirmation.
How to Use the Indicator
Add the indicator to any chart.
Check the trend table in the top-right corner:
Green cells indicate a bullish trend.
Red cells indicate a bearish trend.
Look at RSI values to confirm momentum:
RSI above 70 = Overbought.
RSI below 30 = Oversold.
Watch for the "Merge" alert to spot potential reversals or consolidations.
Combine signals from multiple timeframes for stronger trade decisions.
Why This Indicator is Unique on TradingView?
Before this script, no TradingView indicator displayed RSI and EMA clouds together across multiple timeframes (Daily, Weekly, Monthly).
This tool eliminates the need to:
Manually check multiple timeframes for trend alignment.
Add multiple EMA and RSI indicators to the same chart, creating clutter.
Constantly switch between different timeframes to confirm momentum and trend direction.
With this indicator, traders can see trend strength and momentum shifts instantly, improving their decision-making process.
Chart Guidelines
The script is designed for use on a clean chart to maximize clarity.
The trend alignment table is displayed in a non-intrusive manner so traders can focus on price action.
No additional indicators are required, but users may combine this script with volume-based indicators for further confirmation.
The script name and timeframe should always be visible on published charts to help traders understand the analysis.
Final Notes
This script is a simplification and modification of the EMA Cheatsheet by MarketMoves, improving trend detection, momentum confirmation, and EMA merging detection.
It is designed to help traders quickly identify trend direction, confirm momentum, and detect potential trend shifts, reducing the need for excessive manual analysis.

在腳本中搜尋"breakout"
[TehThomas] - ICT Liquidity sweepsThe ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator is designed to track liquidity zones in the market areas where stop-losses and pending orders are typically clustered. This indicator marks buyside liquidity (resistance) and sellside liquidity (support), helping traders identify areas where price is likely to manipulate liquidity before making a significant move.
This tool is based on Inner Circle Trader (ICT) Smart Money Concepts, which emphasize how institutional traders, or “Smart Money,” manipulate liquidity to fuel price movements. By identifying these zones, traders can anticipate liquidity sweeps and position themselves accordingly.
⚙️ How It Works
1️⃣ Detects Key Liquidity Zones
The script automatically identifies significant swing highs and swing lows in price action using a pivot-based method.
A swing high (buyside liquidity) is a peak where price struggles to break higher, forming a resistance level.
A swing low (sellside liquidity) is a valley where price struggles to go lower, creating a support level.
These liquidity points are prime targets for liquidity sweeps before a true trend direction is confirmed.
2️⃣ Draws Liquidity Lines
Once a swing high or low is identified, a horizontal line is drawn at that level.
The lines extend to the right, serving as future liquidity targets until they are broken.
The indicator allows customization in terms of color, line width, and maximum number of liquidity lines displayed at once.
3️⃣ Handles Liquidity Sweeps
When price breaks a liquidity level, the indicator reacts based on the chosen action setting:
Dotted/Dashed: The line remains visible but changes style to indicate a sweep.
Delete: The line is completely removed once price has interacted with it.
This feature ensures that traders can easily spot where liquidity has been taken and determine whether a reversal or continuation is likely.
4️⃣ Prevents Chart Clutter
To maintain a clean chart, the script limits the number of liquidity lines displayed at any given time.
When new liquidity zones are formed, the oldest lines are automatically removed, keeping the focus on the most relevant liquidity zones.
🎯 How to Use the ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator
🔍 Identifying Liquidity Grabs
This indicator helps you identify areas where Smart Money is targeting liquidity before making a move.
Buyside Liquidity (BSL) Sweeps:
Occur when price spikes above a resistance level before reversing downward.
Indicate that Smart Money has hunted stop-losses and buy stops before driving price lower.
Sellside Liquidity (SSL) Sweeps:
Occur when price drops below a support level before reversing upward.
Indicate that Smart Money has collected liquidity from stop-losses and sell stops before pushing price higher.
📈 Combining with Market Structure Shifts (MSS)
One of the best ways to use this indicator is in conjunction with our Market Structure Shifts Indicator.
Liquidity sweeps + MSS Confirmation give strong high-probability trade setups:
Wait for a liquidity sweep (price takes out a liquidity level).
Look for an MSS in the opposite direction (e.g., price sweeps a high, then breaks a recent low).
Enter the trade in the new direction with stop-loss above/below the liquidity sweep.
📊 Entry & Exit Strategies
Long Trade Example:
Price sweeps a key sellside liquidity level (SSL) → creates a false breakdown.
MSS confirms a reversal (price breaks structure upwards).
Enter long position after confirmation.
Stop-loss below the liquidity grab to minimize risk.
Short Trade Example:
Price sweeps a key buyside liquidity level (BSL) → takes liquidity above resistance.
MSS confirms a bearish move (price breaks a key support level).
Enter short position after confirmation.
Stop-loss above the liquidity grab.
🚀 Why This Indicator is a Game-Changer
✅ Helps Identify Smart Money Manipulation – Understand where institutions are likely to grab liquidity before the real move happens.
✅ Enhances Market Structure Analysis – When paired with MSS, liquidity sweeps become powerful signals for trend reversals.
✅ Filters Out False Breakouts – Many traders get caught in liquidity grabs. This indicator helps avoid bad entries.
✅ Keeps Your Chart Clean – The auto-limiting feature ensures that only the most relevant liquidity levels remain visible.
✅ Works on Any Timeframe – Whether you’re a scalper, day trader, or swing trader, liquidity concepts apply universally.
📌 Final Thoughts
The ICT Liquidity Sweeps Indicator is a must-have tool for traders who follow Smart Money Concepts. By tracking liquidity levels and highlighting sweeps, it allows traders to enter trades with precision while avoiding false breakouts.
When combined with Market Structure Shifts (MSS), this strategy becomes even more powerful, offering traders an edge in spotting reversals and timing entries effectively.

Fractal Trend Anticipator (FTA)How to Use FTA
Purpose:
FTA is designed to detect when a consolidating (or choppy) market—with a high choppiness index—is poised to break into a trend as indicated by an RSI crossover.
Signals:
Bullish Breakout: When the Choppiness Index is above your set threshold and the RSI crosses upward over 50, a bullish arrow (triangle up) appears below the bar.
Bearish Breakout: Conversely, when the RSI crosses downward from above 50 under high choppiness, a bearish arrow (triangle down) appears above the bar.
Trading Insight:
In crypto markets, when price is range-bound, a sudden release of momentum can be captured early by FTA. Use these signals as early alerts to join moves as they begin—whether you plan to ride a short-term spike or a medium-term trend.
Feel free to adjust the and parameters to suit your trading style and asset volatility. Enjoy trading with your updated Fractal Trend Anticipator!
Optimized Dynamic SupertrendDetailed Explanation of the Optimized Dynamic Supertrend Script
This Supertrend script is designed to dynamically adapt to different market conditions using ATR expansion, volume confirmation, and trend filtering. Below is a step-by-step breakdown of how it works and its functions.
1 ATR-Based Supertrend Calculation
📌 Key Purpose:
The script calculates an adaptive ATR-based Supertrend line, which acts as a dynamic support or resistance level for trend direction.
📌 How it Works:
ATR (Average True Range) is used to measure market volatility.
A dynamic ATR multiplier is applied based on price standard deviation (instead of a fixed value).
The Supertrend is calculated as:
Upper Band: SMA(close, ATR length) + (ATR Multiplier * ATR Value)
Lower Band: SMA(close, ATR length) - (ATR Multiplier * ATR Value)
The Supertrend flips when price crosses and holds beyond the Supertrend line.
🔹 Dynamic Adjustment:
Instead of using a fixed ATR multiplier, the script adjusts it using:
pinescript
Copy
Edit
dynamicFactor = ta.stdev(close, atrLength) / ta.sma(close, atrLength)
atrMultiplier = input(1.5, title="Base ATR Multiplier") * dynamicFactor
High volatility → Wider Supertrend bands (to avoid false signals).
Low volatility → Tighter Supertrend bands (for faster detection).
2 Trend Detection Logic
📌 Key Purpose:
Determines if the market is in a bullish or bearish trend based on price action.
Uses volume sensitivity and ATR expansion to reduce false signals.
📌 How it Works:
pinescript
Copy
Edit
var float supertrend = na
supertrend := close > nz(supertrend , lowerBand) ? lowerBand : upperBand
The Supertrend value updates dynamically.
If price is above the Supertrend line, the trend is bullish (green).
If price is below the Supertrend line, the trend is bearish (red).
3 Volume Sensitivity Confirmation
📌 Key Purpose:
Avoid false trend flips by confirming with volume (approximated using a CVD proxy).
📌 How it Works:
pinescript
Copy
Edit
priceChange = close - close
volumeWeightedTrend = priceChange * volume // Approximate CVD Behavior
trendConfirmed = volumeWeightedTrend > 0 ? close > supertrend : close < supertrend
Positive price change + High volume → Confirms bullish momentum.
Negative price change + High volume → Confirms bearish momentum.
If there’s low volume, the trend change is ignored to avoid false breakouts.
4 Noise Reduction (Final Trend Confirmation)
📌 Key Purpose:
Filter out weak or choppy price movements using ATR expansion.
📌 How it Works:
pinescript
Copy
Edit
trendUp = trendConfirmed and ta.atr(atrLength) > ta.atr(atrLength)
trendDown = not trendUp
Trend only flips when confirmed by volume + ATR expansion.
If ATR is not expanding, the script ignores weak price movements.
This ensures Supertrend signals align with strong market moves.
5 Can This Be Used on All Timeframes?
✅ YES! This Supertrend is adaptive, meaning it adjusts dynamically based on:
Volatility: Uses ATR expansion to adjust for different market conditions.
Timeframe Sensitivity: Works on any timeframe (1M, 5M, 15M, 1H, 4H, 1D, 1W).
Market Structure: Confirms trend flips using volume & price movement strength.
🚀 Best Timeframes for Trading:
For Scalping (1M - 15M) → Quick execution, best with order flow confirmation.
For Swing Trading (1H - 4H - 1D) → Stronger trend signals, reduced noise.
For High Timeframes (3D - 1W) → Identifies major market shifts.
🔥 Advantages & Disadvantages in Your Trading Setup
✅ Advantages:
✔ Fully Dynamic & Adaptive → Adjusts to different timeframes & volatility.
✔ Reduces False Signals → Uses ATR expansion & volume confirmation.
✔ Precise Trend Reversals → Labels LONG & SHORT entries clearly.
✔ Works on Any Market → Crypto, Forex, Stocks, Commodities.
✔ No Extra Indicators → Pure Supertrend-based (fits your setup).
❌ Disadvantages:
⚠ Lagging Indicator → ATR & volume confirmation add slight delay.
⚠ Needs High Volume to Confirm → Weak volume → no trend flip.
⚠ Choppy Market = Late Entries → Sideways movement can cause delays.
🚀 Final Thoughts:
It’s fully dynamic & adaptive (unlike traditional static Supertrends).
No extra indicators → Uses only Supertrend logic
Refines entry points using volume & ATR confirmation (removes noise).
This ensures you get high-probability trend signals while filtering out weak breakouts! 🎯
HTF Candle Range Box (Fixed to HTF Bars)### **Higher Timeframe Candle Range Box (HTF Box Indicator)**
This indicator visually highlights the price range of the most recently closed higher-timeframe (HTF) candle, directly on a lower-timeframe chart. It dynamically adjusts based on the user-selected HTF setting (e.g., 15-minute, 1-hour) and ensures that the box is displayed only on the bars that correspond to that specific HTF candle’s duration.
For instance, if a trader is on a **1-minute chart** with the **HTF set to 15 minutes**, the indicator will draw a box spanning exactly 15 one-minute candles, corresponding to the previous 15-minute HTF candle. The box updates only when a new HTF candle completes, ensuring that it does not change mid-formation.
---
### **How It Works:**
1. **Retrieves Higher Timeframe Data**
The script uses TradingView’s `request.security` function to pull **high, low, open, and close** values from the **previously completed HTF candle** (using ` ` to avoid repainting). It also fetches the **high and low of the candle before that** (using ` `) for comparison.
2. **Determines Breakout Behavior**
It compares the **last closed HTF candle** to the **one before it** to determine whether:
- It **broke above** the previous high.
- It **broke below** the previous low.
- It **broke both** the high and low.
- It **stayed within the previous candle’s range** (no breakout).
3. **Classifies the Candle & Assigns Color**
- **Green (Bullish)**
- Closes above the previous candle’s high.
- Breaks below the previous candle’s low but closes back inside the previous range **if it opened above** the previous high.
- **Red (Bearish)**
- Closes below the previous candle’s low.
- Breaks above the previous candle’s high but closes back inside the previous range **if it opened below** the previous low.
- **Orange (Neutral/Indecisive)**
- Stays within the previous candle’s range.
- Breaks both the high and low but closes inside the previous range without a clear bias.
4. **Box Placement on the Lower Timeframe**
- The script tracks the **bar index** where each HTF candle starts on the lower timeframe (e.g., every 15 bars on a 1-minute chart if HTF = 15 minutes).
- It **only displays the box on those bars**, ensuring that the range is accurately reflected for that time period.
- The box **resets and updates** only when a new HTF candle completes.
---
### **Key Features & Advantages:**
✅ **Clear Higher Timeframe Context:**
- The indicator provides a structured way to analyze HTF price action while trading in a lower timeframe.
- It helps traders identify **HTF support and resistance zones**, potential **breakouts**, and **failed breakouts**.
✅ **Fixed Box Display (No Mid-Candle Repainting):**
- The box is drawn **only after the HTF candle closes**, avoiding misleading fluctuations.
- Unlike other indicators that update live, this one ensures the trader is looking at **confirmed data** only.
✅ **Flexible Timeframe Selection:**
- The user can set **any HTF resolution** (e.g., 5min, 15min, 1hr, 4hr), making it adaptable for different strategies.
✅ **Dynamic Color Coding for Quick Analysis:**
- The **color of the box reflects the market sentiment**, making it easier to spot trends, reversals, and fake-outs.
✅ **No Clutter – Only Applies to the Relevant Bars:**
- Instead of spanning across the whole chart, the range box is **only visible on the bars belonging to the last HTF period**, keeping the chart clean and focused.
---
### **Example Use Case:**
💡 Imagine a trader is scalping on the **1-minute chart** but wants to factor in **HTF 15-minute structure** to avoid getting caught in bad trades. With this indicator:
- They can see whether the last **15-minute candle** was bullish, bearish, or indecisive.
- If it was **bullish (green)**, they may look for **buying opportunities** at lower timeframes.
- If it was **bearish (red)**, they might anticipate **a potential pullback or continuation down**.
- If the **HTF candle failed to break out**, they know the market is **ranging**, avoiding unnecessary trades.
---
### **Final Thoughts:**
This indicator is a **powerful addition for traders who combine multiple timeframes** in their analysis. It provides a **clean and structured way to track HTF price movements** without cluttering the chart or requiring constant manual switching between timeframes. Whether used for **intraday trading, swing trading, or scalping**, it adds an extra layer of confirmation for trade entries and exits.
🔹 **Best for traders who:**
- Want **HTF structure awareness while trading lower timeframes**.
- Need **confirmation of breakouts, failed breakouts, or indecision zones**.
- Prefer a **non-repainting tool that only updates after confirmed HTF closes**.

Wave Trend -V2Wave Trend -V2 is here to give you a serious edge.
This upgraded version of the popular LazyBear script takes wave trend analysis to the next level.
Here's the deal:
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Beyond Short-Term Noise:
Novice traders often focus solely on the current timeframe (let's say, the 5-minute chart).
Wave Trend -V2 breaks free from this limitation by analyzing price action across multiple timeframes (1-minute to 1-week).
---This holistic view helps you:
Identify larger trends: Are we in a bullish uptrend on the daily chart, even if the hourly chart is showing some short-term weakness? Wave Trend -V2 helps you see the bigger picture.
Avoid false breakouts: Short-term price spikes can create false signals. By looking at higher timeframes, you can filter out these "noise" and focus on sustainable trends.
---Pressure Analysis: Gauging Market Strength:
Wave Trend -V2 goes beyond simple trend identification.
It incorporates "pressure" analysis to gauge the strength and direction of the current market trend.
This helps you:
Enter trades with confidence: When the trend is strong and the pressure is high, you can enter trades with greater conviction.
Minimize risk: If the pressure is waning or conflicting signals arise, you can avoid entering trades or adjust your risk parameters accordingly.
Impact Point Analysis: Predicting Future Price Moves:
Wave Trend -V2 analyzes the price impact of the last four wave trend crossovers.
Let's say the last impact point was "X", the previous one "X-1", the one before that "X-2", and so on.
The indicator calculates the average price movement between these points using the following simplified formula:
Average Impact = (X - X-1) + (X-1 - X-2) + (X-2 - X-3) / 3
This average provides a valuable estimate of the potential price movement of the next crossover.
Multiple Take Profit Levels: Setting Strategic Targets:
Wave Trend -V2 offers three dynamic take profit levels (TP1, TP2, TP3).
TP1: Based on the estimated average impact.
TP2: Twice the estimated average impact.
TP3: Three times the estimated average impact.
This allows you to set your profit targets strategically, maximizing potential gains while managing risk effectively.
Why don't use the Estmated impact point to stop the trade?
In order to eliminated the WHIPSAW effect! There is no other way...
Wave Trend -V2 is designed for traders who seek a deeper understanding of trend dynamics and desire a more sophisticated approach to trading. By combining multi-timeframe analysis, pressure assessment, and advanced impact point calculations, this indicator empowers you to make more informed trading decisions and potentially improve your trading outcomes.
The indicator work best with combination of other trend type indicators.
Please dont forget that indicators are not miracle medicines , it cannot give you exact results , market was always volative , use at your own discretion.

VWMACD-MFI-OBV Composite# MACD-MFI-OBV Composite
A dynamic volume-based technical indicator combining Volume-Weighted MACD, Money Flow Index (MFI), and normalized On Balance Volume (OBV). This composite indicator excels at identifying breakouts and strong trend movements through multiple volume confirmations, making it particularly effective for momentum and high-volatility trading environments.
## Overview
The indicator integrates trend, momentum, and cumulative volume analysis into a unified visualization system. Each component is carefully normalized to enable direct comparison, while the background color system provides instant trend recognition. This version is specifically optimized for breakout detection and strong trend confirmation.
## Core Components
### Volume-Weighted MACD
Visualized through the background color system, this enhanced MACD implementation uses Volume-Weighted Moving Averages (VWMA) instead of traditional EMAs. This modification ensures greater sensitivity to volume-supported price movements while filtering out less significant low-volume price changes. The background alternates between green (bullish) and red (bearish) to provide immediate trend feedback.
### Money Flow Index (MFI)
Displayed as the purple line, the MFI functions as a volume-weighted momentum oscillator. Operating within a natural 0-100 range, it helps identify potential overbought and oversold conditions while confirming volume support for price movements. The MFI is particularly effective at validating breakout momentum.
### Normalized On Balance Volume (OBV)
The white line represents normalized OBV, providing insight into cumulative buying and selling pressure. The normalization process scales OBV to match other components while maintaining its ability to confirm price trends through volume analysis. This component excels at identifying strong breakout movements and volume surges.
## Signal Integration
The indicator generates its most powerful signals when all three components align, particularly during breakout conditions:
Strong Bullish Signals develop when:
- Background shifts to green (VWMACD bullish)
- MFI shows strong upward momentum
- OBV demonstrates sharp volume accumulation
Strong Bearish Signals emerge when:
- Background turns red (VWMACD bearish)
- MFI exhibits downward momentum
- OBV shows significant volume distribution
## Market Application
This indicator variant is specifically designed for:
Breakout Trading:
The OBV component provides excellent sensitivity to volume surges, making it ideal for breakout confirmation and momentum validation.
Trend Following:
Sharp OBV movements combined with MFI momentum help identify and confirm strong trending conditions.
High Volatility Markets:
The indicator's design excels in active, volatile markets where clear signal generation is crucial for decision-making.
## Technical Implementation
Default Parameters:
Volume-Weighted MACD maintains traditional periods (12/26/9) while leveraging volume weighting. MFI uses standard 14-period calculation with 80/20 overbought/oversold thresholds. All components undergo normalization over a 100-period lookback for stable comparison.
Visual Elements:
- Background: VWMACD trend indication (green/red)
- Purple Line: Money Flow Index
- White Line: Normalized OBV
- Yellow Line: Combined signal (arithmetic mean of normalized components)
- Reference Lines: Key levels at 20, 50, and 80
## Trading Methodology
The indicator supports a systematic approach to breakout and momentum trading:
1. Breakout Identification
Monitor for background color changes accompanied by significant OBV movement, indicating potential breakout conditions.
2. Volume Surge Confirmation
Examine OBV slope and magnitude to confirm genuine breakout scenarios versus false moves.
3. Momentum Validation
Use MFI to confirm breakout strength and identify potential exhaustion points.
4. Combined Signal Analysis
The yellow line provides a unified view of all components, helping identify high-probability breakout opportunities.
## Interpretation Guidelines
Breakout Confirmation:
Strong breakouts typically show alignment of all three components with notable OBV surge. This configuration often precedes significant price movements.
Trend Strength:
Continuous OBV expansion during trends, supported by steady MFI readings, suggests sustained momentum.
## Market Selection
Optimal Markets Include:
- High-beta growth stocks
- Momentum-driven securities
- Stocks with significant volatility
- Active trading instruments
- Examples: TSLA, NVDA, growth stocks
## Version Information
Current Version: 2.0.0
This indicator represents a specialized adaptation of volume-based analysis, optimized for breakout trading and momentum strategies in high-volatility environments.
X.Y Format Candle Volume & CompressionThe Volume & Compression Indicator is designed to help traders identify significant market moves by displaying two key metrics above each candle. The top number represents the Volume Ratio, which compares the current candle's volume to the average volume of recent candles. For example, a reading of 2.5 means the current volume is 2.5 times higher than average. When volume exceeds 9.9 times the average, the indicator displays an up or down arrow instead of a number, indicating extremely high volume in that direction.
The bottom number shows the Compression Ratio, which measures the relationship between volume and price movement. This helps identify when large amounts of volume are moving price significantly (low compression) versus when high volume isn't resulting in much price movement (high compression). High compression often indicates accumulation or distribution phases, while low compression with high volume typically suggests strong directional moves.
The indicator includes visual cues to help spot patterns. Dots appear above candles when both high volume and high compression persist over several candles, potentially indicating accumulation phases. Arrows mark possible pivot points after these accumulation periods. Additionally, the candles themselves can display a gradient color that intensifies with increased compression, making it easier to spot areas of interest.
For trading purposes, watch for volume spikes (top number above 2.0) as they can signal potential reversal points or confirm breakouts. High compression readings might precede breakouts, while low compression with high volume often confirms strong trend moves. The most significant signals often come when both metrics show high readings over multiple candles, suggesting sustained institutional interest.
JJ Highlight Time Ranges with First 5 Minutes and LabelsTo effectively use this Pine Script as a day trader , here’s how the various elements can help you manage trades, track time sessions, and monitor price movements:
Key Components for a Day Trader:
1. First 5-Minute Highlight:
- Purpose: Day traders often rely on the first 5 minutes of the trading session to gauge market sentiment, watch for opening price gaps, or plan entries. This script draws a horizontal line at the high or low of the first 5 minutes, which can act as a key level for the rest of the day.
- How to Use: If the price breaks above or below the first 5-minute line, it can signal momentum. You might enter a long position if the price breaks above the first 5-minute high or a short if it breaks below the first 5-minute low.
2. Session Time Highlights:
- Morning Session (9:15–10:30 AM): The market often shows its strongest price action during the first hour of trading. This session is highlighted in yellow. You can use this highlight to focus on the most volatile period, as this is when large institutional moves tend to occur.
- Afternoon Session (12:30–2:55 PM): The blue highlight helps you track the mid-afternoon session, where liquidity may decrease, and price action can sometimes be choppier. Day traders should be more cautious during this period.
- How to Use: By highlighting these key times, you can:
- Focus on key breakouts during the morning session.
- Be more conservative in your trades during the afternoon, as market volatility may drop.
3. Dynamic Labels:
- Top/Bottom Positioning: The script places labels dynamically based on the selected position (Top or Bottom). This allows you to quickly glance at the session's start and identify where you are in terms of time.
- How to Use: Use these labels to remind yourself when major time segments (morning or afternoon) begin. You can adjust your trading strategy depending on the session, e.g., being more aggressive in the morning and more cautious in the afternoon.
Trading Strategy Suggestions:
1. Momentum Trades:
- After the first 5 minutes, use the high/low of that period to set up breakout trades.
- Long Entry: If the price breaks the high of the first 5 minutes (especially if there's a strong trend).
- Short Entry: If the price breaks the low of the first 5 minutes, signaling a potential downtrend.
2. Session-Based Strategy:
- Morning Session (9:15–10:30 AM):
- Look for strong breakout patterns such as support/resistance levels, moving average crossovers, or candlestick patterns (like engulfing candles or pin bars).
- This is a high liquidity period, making it ideal for executing quick trades.
- Afternoon Session (12:30–2:55 PM):
- The market tends to consolidate or show less volatility. Scalping and mean-reversion strategies work better here.
- Avoid chasing big moves unless you see a clear breakout in either direction.
3. Support and Resistance:
- The first 5-minute high/low often acts as a key support or resistance level for the rest of the day. If the price holds above or below this level, it’s an indication of trend continuation.
4. Breakout Confirmation:
- Look for breakouts from the highlighted session time ranges (e.g., 9:15 AM–10:30 AM or 12:30 PM–2:55 PM).
- If a breakout happens during a key time window, combine that with other technical indicators like volume spikes , RSI , or MACD for confirmation.
---
Example Day Trader Usage:
1. First 5 Minutes Strategy: After the market opens at 9:15 AM, watch the price action for the first 5 minutes. The high and low of these 5 minutes are critical levels. If the price breaks above the high of the first 5 minutes, it might indicate a strong bullish trend for the day. Conversely, breaking below the low may suggest bearish movement.
2. Morning Session: After the first 5 minutes, focus on the **9:15 AM–10:30 AM** window. During this time, look for breakout setups at key support/resistance levels, especially when paired with high volume or momentum indicators. This is when many institutions make large trades, so price action tends to be more volatile and predictable.
3. Afternoon Session: From 12:30 PM–2:55 PM, the market might experience lower volatility, making it ideal for scalping or range-bound strategies. You could look for reversals or fading strategies if the market becomes too quiet.
Conclusion:
As a day trader, you can use this script to:
- Track and react to key price levels during the first 5 minutes.
- Focus on high volatility in the morning session (9:15–10:30 AM) and **be cautious** during the afternoon.
- Use session-based timing to adjust your strategies based on the time of day.

Weis Wave Max█ Overview
Weis Wave Max is the result of my weis wave study.
David Weis said,
"Trading with the Weis Wave involves changes in behavior associated with springs, upthrusts, tests of breakouts/breakdowns, and effort vs reward. The most common setup is the low-volume pullback after a bullish/bearish change in behavior."
THE STOCK MARKET UPDATE (February 24, 2013)
I inspired from his sentences and made this script.
Its Main feature is to identify the largest wave in Weis wave and advantageous trading opportunities.
█ Features
This indicator includes several features related to the Weis Wave Method.
They help you analyze which is more bullish or bearish.
Highlight Max Wave Value (single direction)
Highlight Abnormal Max Wave Value (both directions)
Support and Resistance zone
Signals and Setups
█ Usage
Weis wave indicator displays cumulative volume for each wave.
Wave volume is effective when analyzing volume from VSA (Volume Spread Analysis) perspective.
The basic idea of Weis wave is large wave volume hint trend direction. This helps identify proper entry point.
This indicator highlights max wave volume and displays the signal and then proper Risk Reward Ratio entry frame.
I defined Change in Behavior as max wave volume (single direction).
Pullback is next wave that does not exceed the starting point of CiB wave (LH sell entry, HL buy entry).
Change in Behavior Signal ○ appears when pullback is determined.
Change in Behavior Setup (Entry frame) appears when condition of Min/Max Pullback is met and follow through wave breaks end point of CiB wave.
This indicator has many other features and they can also help a user identify potential levels of trade entry and which is more bullish or bearish.
In the screenshot below we can see wave volume zones as support and resistance levels. SOT and large wave volume /delta price (yellow colored wave text frame) hint stopping action.

Simple Decesion Matrix Classification Algorithm [SS]Hello everyone,
It has been a while since I posted an indicator, so thought I would share this project I did for fun.
This indicator is an attempt to develop a pseudo Random Forest classification decision matrix model for Pinescript.
This is not a full, robust Random Forest model by any stretch of the imagination, but it is a good way to showcase how decision matrices can be applied to trading and within Pinescript.
As to not market this as something it is not, I am simply calling it the "Simple Decision Matrix Classification Algorithm". However, I have stolen most of the aspects of this machine learning algo from concepts of Random Forest modelling.
How it works:
With models like Support Vector Machines (SVM), Random Forest (RF) and Gradient Boosted Machine Learning (GBM), which are commonly used in Machine Learning Classification Tasks (MLCTs), this model operates similarity to the basic concepts shared amongst those modelling types. While it is not very similar to SVM, it is very similar to RF and GBM, in that it uses a "voting" system.
What do I mean by voting system?
How most classification MLAs work is by feeding an input dataset to an algorithm. The algorithm sorts this data, categorizes it, then introduces something called a confusion matrix (essentially sorting the data in no apparently order as to prevent over-fitting and introduce "confusion" to the algorithm to ensure that it is not just following a trend).
From there, the data is called upon based on current data inputs (so say we are using RSI and Z-Score, the current RSI and Z-Score is compared against other RSI's and Z-Scores that the model has saved). The model will process this information and each "tree" or "node" will vote. Then a cumulative overall vote is casted.
How does this MLA work?
This model accepts 2 independent variables. In order to keep things simple, this model was kept as a three node model. This means that there are 3 separate votes that go in to get the result. A vote is casted for each of the two independent variables and then a cumulative vote is casted for the overall verdict (the result of the model's prediction).
The model actually displays this system diagrammatically and it will likely be easier to understand if we look at the diagram to ground the example:
In the diagram, at the very top we have the classification variable that we are trying to predict. In this case, we are trying to predict whether there will be a breakout/breakdown outside of the normal ATR range (this is either yes or no question, hence a classification task).
So the question forms the basis of the input. The model will track at which points the ATR range is exceeded to the upside or downside, as well as the other variables that we wish to use to predict these exceedences. The ATR range forms the basis of all the data flowing into the model.
Then, at the second level, you will see we are using Z-Score and RSI to predict these breaks. The circle will change colour according to "feature importance". Feature importance basically just means that the indicator has a strong impact on the outcome. The stronger the importance, the more green it will be, the weaker, the more red it will be.
We can see both RSI and Z-Score are green and thus we can say they are strong options for predicting a breakout/breakdown.
So then we move down to the actual voting mechanisms. You will see the 2 pink boxes. These are the first lines of voting. What is happening here is the model is identifying the instances that are most similar and whether the classification task we have assigned (remember out ATR exceedance classifier) was either true or false based on RSI and Z-Score.
These are our 2 nodes. They both cast an individual vote. You will see in this case, both cast a vote of 1. The options are either 1 or 0. A vote of 1 means "Yes" or "Breakout likely".
However, this is not the only voting the model does. The model does one final vote based on the 2 votes. This is shown in the purple box. We can see the final vote and result at the end with the orange circle. It is 1 which means a range exceedance is anticipated and the most likely outcome.
The Data Table Component
The model has many moving parts. I have tried to represent the pivotal functions diagrammatically, but some other important aspects and background information must be obtained from the companion data table.
If we bring back our diagram from above:
We can see the data table to the left.
The data table contains 2 sections, one for each independent variable. In this case, our independent variables are RSI and Z-Score.
The data table will provide you with specifics about the independent variables, as well as about the model accuracy and outcome.
If we take a look at the first row, it simply indicates which independent variable it is looking at. If we go down to the next row where it reads "Weighted Impact", we can see a corresponding percent. The "weighted impact" is the amount of representation each independent variable has within the voting scheme. So in this case, we can see its pretty equal, 45% and 55%, This tells us that there is a slight higher representation of z-score than RSI but nothing to worry about.
If there was a major over-respresentation of greater than 30 or 40%, then the model would risk being skewed and voting too heavily in favour of 1 variable over the other.
If we move down from there we will see the next row reads "independent accuracy". The voting of each independent variable's accuracy is considered separately. This is one way we can determine feature importance, by seeing how well one feature augments the accuracy. In this case, we can see that RSI has the greatest importance, with an accuracy of around 87% at predicting breakouts. That makes sense as RSI is a momentum based oscillator.
Then if we move down one more, we will see what each independent feature (node) has voted for. In this case, both RSI and Z-Score voted for 1 (Breakout in our case).
You can weigh these in collaboration, but its always important to look at the final verdict of the model, which if we move down, we can see the "Model prediction" which is "Bullish".
If you are using the ATR breakout, the model cannot distinguish between "Bullish" or "Bearish", must that a "Breakout" is likely, either bearish or bullish. However, for the other classification tasks this model can do, the results are either Bullish or Bearish.
Using the Function:
Okay so now that all that technical stuff is out of the way, let's get into using the function. First of all this function innately provides you with 3 possible classification tasks. These include:
1. Predicting Red or Green Candle
2. Predicting Bullish / Bearish ATR
3. Predicting a Breakout from the ATR range
The possible independent variables include:
1. Stochastics,
2. MFI,
3. RSI,
4. Z-Score,
5. EMAs,
6. SMAs,
7. Volume
The model can only accept 2 independent variables, to operate within the computation time limits for pine execution.
Let's quickly go over what the numbers in the diagram mean:
The numbers being pointed at with the yellow arrows represent the cases the model is sorting and voting on. These are the most identical cases and are serving as the voting foundation for the model.
The numbers being pointed at with the pink candle is the voting results.
Extrapolating the functions (For Pine Developers:
So this is more of a feature application, so feel free to customize it to your liking and add additional inputs. But here are some key important considerations if you wish to apply this within your own code:
1. This is a BINARY classification task. The prediction must either be 0 or 1.
2. The function consists of 3 separate functions, the 2 first functions serve to build the confusion matrix and then the final "random_forest" function serves to perform the computations. You will need all 3 functions for implementation.
3. The model can only accept 2 independent variables.
I believe that is the function. Hopefully this wasn't too confusing, it is very statsy, but its a fun function for me! I use Random Forest excessively in R and always like to try to convert R things to Pinescript.
Hope you enjoy!
Safe trades everyone!
Up/Down Volume with Normal DistributionThis indicator analyzes the relationship between price movements and trading volume by distinguishing between "up" and "down" volume. Up volume refers to trading volume occurring during price increases, while down volume refers to trading volume during price decreases. The indicator calculates the mean and standard deviation for both up and down volume over a specified length. This statistical approach enables traders to visualize volume deviations from the average, highlighting potential market anomalies that could signal trading opportunities.
Relationship Between Price and Volume
Volume is a critical metric in technical analysis, often considered a leading indicator of price movements. According to studies in financial economics, significant price changes accompanied by high volume tend to indicate strong market conviction (Wyart et al., 2008). Conversely, price changes on low volume may suggest a lack of interest or conviction, making those moves less reliable.
The relationship between price and volume can be summarized as follows:
Confirmation of Trends: High volume accompanying a price increase often confirms an upward trend. Similarly, high volume during price declines indicates bearish sentiment.
Reversals and Exhaustion: Decreases in volume during price increases may suggest a potential reversal or exhaustion of buying pressure, while increased volume during declines can indicate capitulation.
Breakouts: Price movements that break through significant resistance or support levels accompanied by high volume are typically more significant and suggest stronger follow-through in the new direction.
Developing a Trading Strategy
Traders can leverage the insights gained from this relationship to formulate a trading strategy based on volume analysis:
Entry Signals: Traders can enter long positions when the up volume significantly exceeds the mean by a predefined number of standard deviations. This situation indicates strong buying interest. Conversely, short positions can be initiated when down volume exceeds the mean by a specified standard deviation.
Exit Signals: Exiting positions can be based on changes in volume patterns. If the volume starts to decrease significantly after a price increase, this may signal a potential reversal or the need to lock in profits.
Risk Management: Integrating volume analysis with other technical indicators, such as moving averages or RSI, can provide a more comprehensive risk management framework, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the strategy.
In conclusion, understanding the relationship between price and volume, alongside employing statistical measures like the mean and standard deviation, enables traders to create more robust trading strategies that capitalize on market movements.

Range Tightening Indicator (RTI)The Range Tightening Indicator (RTI) quantifies price volatility relative to recent price action, helping traders identify low-volatility consolidations that often precede breakouts.
Range Tightening is calculated by measuring the range between each bar’s high and low prices over a chosen lookback period.
A 5-bar period is recommended for shorter-term momentum setups and a 15-bar period is recommended for swing trading. An option for a custom period is available to suit specific strategies. The default look back for custom is 50, ideal for longer term traders.
Other Key Features:
Dynamic Color Coding: The RTI line turns green when volatility doubles after a drop to or below 20, flagging significant volatility shifts commonly seen before breakouts.
Low-Volatility Dots: Orange dots appear on the RTI line when two or more consecutive bars show RTI values below 20, visually marking extended low-volatility periods.
Volatility Zones: Shaded zones provide quick context:
Zone 1 (0-5): Extremely tight volatility, shown in red.
Zone 2 (5-10): Low volatility, shown in light green.
Zone 3 (10-15): Moderate low volatility, shown in green.
The RTI indicator is ideal for traders looking to anticipate breakout conditions, with features that highlight consolidation phases, support momentum strategies, and help improve entry timing by focusing on shifts in volatility.
This indicator was inspired after Deepvue's RMV Indicator, but uses a different calculation. Results may vary.
CPR by NKDCentral Pivot Range (CPR) Trading Strategy:
The Central Pivot Range (CPR) is a widely-used tool in technical analysis, helping traders pinpoint potential support and resistance levels in the market. By using the CPR effectively, traders can better gauge market trends and determine favorable entry and exit points. This guide explores how the CPR works, outlines its calculation, and describes how traders can enhance their strategies using an extended 10-line version of CPR.
What Really Central Pivot Range (CPR) is?
At its core, the CPR consists of three key lines:
Pivot Point (PP) – The central line, calculated as the average of the previous day’s high, low, and closing prices.
Upper Range (R1) – Positioned above the Pivot Point, acting as a potential ceiling where price may face resistance.
Lower Range (S1) – Found below the Pivot Point, serving as a potential floor where price might find support.
Advanced traders often expand on the traditional three-line CPR by adding extra levels above and below the pivot, creating up to a 10-line system. This extended CPR allows for a more nuanced understanding of the market and helps identify more detailed trading opportunities.
Applying CPR for Trading Success
1. How CPR is Calculation
The CPR relies on the previous day's high (H), low (L), and close (C) prices to create its structure:
Pivot Point (PP) = (H + L + C) / 3
First Resistance (R1) = (2 * PP) - L
First Support (S1) = (2 * PP) - H
Additional resistance levels (R2, R3) and support levels (S2, S3) are calculated by adding or subtracting multiples of the previous day’s price range (H - L) from the Pivot Point.
2. Recognizing the Market Trend
To effectively trade using CPR, it’s essential to first determine whether the market is trending up (bullish) or down (bearish). In an upward-trending market, traders focus on buying at support levels, while in a downward market, they look to sell near resistance.
3. Finding Ideal Entry Points
Traders often look to enter trades when price approaches key levels within the CPR range. Support levels (S1, S2) offer buying opportunities, while resistance levels (R1, R2) provide selling opportunities. These points are considered potential reversal zones, where price may bounce or reverse direction.
4. Managing Risk with Stop-Loss Orders
Proper risk management is crucial in any trading strategy. A stop-loss should be set slightly beyond the support level for buy positions and above the resistance level for sell positions, ensuring that losses are contained if the market moves against the trader’s position.
5. Determining Profit Targets
Profit targets are typically set based on the distance between entry points and the next support or resistance level. Many traders apply a risk-reward ratio, aiming for larger potential profits compared to the potential losses. However, if the next resistance and support level is far then middle levels are used for targets (i.e. 50% of R1 and R2)
6. Confirmation Through Other Indicators
While CPR provides strong support and resistance levels, traders often use additional indicators to confirm potential trade setups. Indicators such as moving averages can
help validate the signals provided by the CPR.
7. Monitoring Price Action At CPR Levels
Constantly monitoring price movement near CPR levels is essential. If the price fails to break through a resistance level (R1) or holds firm at support (S1), it can offer cues on when to exit or adjust a trade. However, a strong price break past these levels often signals a continued trend.
8. Trading Breakouts with CPR
When the price breaks above resistance or below support with strong momentum, it may signal a potential breakout. Traders can capitalize on these movements by entering positions in the direction of the breakout, ideally confirmed by volume or other technical indicators.
9. Adapting to Changing Market Conditions
CPR should be used in the context of broader market influences, such as economic reports, news events, or geopolitical shifts. These factors can dramatically affect market direction and how price reacts to CPR levels, making it important to stay informed about external market conditions.
10. Practice and Backtesting for Improvements
Like any trading tool, the CPR requires practice. Traders are encouraged to backtest their strategies on historical price data to get a better sense of how CPR works in different market environments. Continuous analysis and practice help improve decision-making and strategy refinement.
The Advantages of Using a 10-Line CPR System
An extended 10-line CPR system—comprising up to five resistance and five support levels—provides more granular control and insight into market movements. This expanded view helps traders better gauge trends and identify more opportunities for entry and exit. Key benefits include:
R2, S2 Levels: These act as secondary resistance or support zones, giving traders additional opportunities to refine their trade entries and exits.
R3, S3 Levels: Provide an even wider range for identifying reversals or trend continuations in more volatile markets.
Flexibility: The broader range of levels allows traders to adapt to changing market conditions and make more precise decisions based on market momentum.
So in Essential:
The Central Pivot Range is a valuable tool for traders looking to identify critical price levels in the market. By providing a clear framework for identifying potential support and resistance zones, it helps traders make informed decisions about entering and exiting trades. However, it’s important to combine CPR with sound risk management and additional confirmation through other technical indicators for the best results.
Although no trading tool guarantees success, the CPR, when used effectively and combined with practice, can significantly enhance a trader’s ability to navigate market fluctuations.

Trading Ranges + ZScoreOverview
The "Trading Ranges + ZScore" script is a versatile technical indicator developed for TradingView. This tool combines two powerful concepts—price ranges and Z-Score analysis—to help traders identify potential trend reversals, overbought/oversold conditions, and trend strength. The script dynamically calculates price ranges based on recent price action and utilizes Z-Score to detect deviations from a statistical norm, providing valuable insights for decision-making in both ranging and trending markets.
Features
Price Ranges: Calculates dynamic upper and lower price boundaries based on volatility and market structure.
Z-Score Oscillator: A statistical measure that highlights overbought/oversold conditions based on the deviation from a moving average.
Trend Detection: Identifies trend continuation or reversal points by comparing current price action against historical levels.
Customizable Alerts: Generates visual signals (diamonds and X crosses) for potential long/short entries and exits.
Visual Representation: Colors the bars based on Z-Score and trend direction, enhancing the chart’s readability and signal clarity.
Customizable Parameters: The script allows users to fine-tune perception length, analysis period, factor multiplier, and oscillator thresholds to fit different market conditions.
Key Input Parameters
Perception: The length used for calculating highest/lowest price points (default: 20).
Analysis: The length used for calculating the moving average and volatility (default: 100).
Factor: A multiplier to adjust the width of the price ranges (default: 2.0).
Oscillator Threshold: The overbought/oversold threshold for the Z-Score oscillator (default: 70).
Trend Filter: A boolean switch that filters signals based on trend direction.
Fill Zones: Option to color-fill between price levels when certain conditions are met.
Bullish/Bearish/Neutral Colors: Customizable colors for bullish, bearish, and neutral signals.
How It Works
Price Ranges Calculation:
The script calculates five levels: two upper boundaries, the average price level, and two lower boundaries. These levels are based on the highest/lowest prices over a user-defined period and adjusted by volatility (Average True Range).
When the price crosses either of these levels, it suggests a significant change in market direction, potentially indicating a trend reversal.
Z-Score Oscillator:
The Z-Score is a statistical measurement of a price's position relative to its moving average. The indicator calculates two variations:
Z-Score based on the absolute difference between the price and the moving average.
Z-Score based on standard deviation.
These oscillators help detect extreme conditions where the price is likely to revert (overbought/oversold zones).
Trend Detection and Signals:
The indicator generates potential buy/sell signals when the price crosses the predefined levels or based on the fast Z-Score crossing the overbought/oversold thresholds.
Weak long/short signals are shown when the faster Z-Score oscillator reaches extreme levels but trend filters are applied to avoid noise.
Bar Colors and Signal Shapes:
Bar colors change dynamically to reflect the trend direction and Z-Score conditions. Signals for potential trades are displayed using diamonds and X crosses, making it easy to spot opportunities visually.
Visuals and Plots
Bar Colors: Changes the bar color based on Z-Score and trend direction.
Z-Score Plot: Displays two Z-Score oscillators, the standard and a faster one for detecting quicker price deviations.
Overbought/Oversold Zones: Highlighted by upper and lower thresholds of the Z-Score.
Long/Short Signals: Uses diamond-shaped markers for strong long/short signals and X-shaped markers for weaker signals.
Dynamic Range Lines: Plots lines for key price levels (upper/lower boundaries, mid-range) based on the dynamic range calculations.
Usage Guide
Identify Overbought/Oversold Conditions: Look for the Z-Score reaching extreme positive or negative values. When combined with trend signals, these conditions often point to a potential reversal.
Follow the Trend: Use the trend filter option to focus only on trades in the direction of the prevailing trend, reducing false signals in ranging markets.
Watch for Range Breakouts: Pay attention to the upper and lower boundaries. Price crossing these levels often signals the start of a new trend or a major price movement.
Adjust Parameters: Tailor the perception length, analysis length, and multiplier to suit different asset classes or timeframes.
Customization
You can adjust the key parameters to adapt the indicator to different markets or personal trading preferences:
- Perception & Analysis Lengths: Control the sensitivity of the price range calculations.
- Factor Multiplier: Adjusts the width of the ranges, with higher values indicating larger zones.
- Oscillator Threshold: Modify the overbought/oversold levels to suit different market volatility.
- Trend Filter: Toggle on/off to focus on trend-following strategies or range-bound conditions.
- Visual Options: Customize colors for bullish, bearish, and neutral signals, as well as enable/disable the zone fills.
Prior Day High/Low and Highest High/Lowest LowFeatures:
Prior Day High and Low:
The script tracks and displays the previous trading day's high and low prices. These levels can serve as important areas of support or resistance, helping traders to make informed decisions about potential price reversals or breakouts.
Highest High and Lowest Low Over N Days:
This indicator also tracks and displays the highest high and lowest low over the last N days, where N is user-configurable. This allows traders to see broader trends in price action and identify key levels for potential trend changes.
User-Configurable Inputs:
Show Prior Day High/Low: Toggle whether to display the prior day’s high and low levels.
Days to Consider for Highest High/Lowest Low: Define the number of days over which the highest high and lowest low are calculated.
Show Highest High/Lowest Low: Toggle whether to display the highest high and lowest low levels over the specified period.
Low Source and High Source: Customize the data sources for the high and low values.
Automatic Data Handling:
The script automatically tracks the daily high and low prices, storing them in arrays, and calculates the highest and lowest prices over the user-specified number of days. When a new day begins, the prior day's data is saved, and the calculations are updated accordingly.
Visual Display:
The indicator uses distinct colors and plotting styles:
Prior day’s high and low are plotted as blue circles.
The highest high over N days is plotted as a red circle.
The lowest low over N days is plotted as a green circle.
This indicator helps traders stay informed about significant price levels, which are often used in trading strategies for breakouts, trend following, or reversals.
Dynamic ALMA with signalsEnhanced ALMA with Signals
This TradingView indicator is designed to enhance your trading strategy by utilizing the Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA), a unique moving average that provides smoother price action while minimizing lag. The script not only plots the ALMA line but also dynamically adjusts its parameters based on market volatility to adapt to different trading conditions. Additionally, it highlights potential bounce points off the line, as well as breakout points, giving traders clear signals for potential support, resistance levels, and breakouts.
Key Features:
Dynamic ALMA Line with Glow Effect:
The core of this indicator is the ALMA line, which is dynamically adjusted to market volatility, providing more accurate signals in varying conditions. The line adapts to both trending and consolidating markets by adjusting its sensitivity in real time. A glow effect is created by plotting the ALMA line multiple times with increasing transparency, making it visually distinct.
Bounce Detection Signals with Volatility Filter:
The script detects and labels potential support and resistance bounces based on the crossover and crossunder of the price with the ALMA line, further filtered by a volatility condition. This helps in filtering out false signals during low-volatility conditions, making the signals more reliable.
Visual Enhancements:
Custom glow effects and labels for bounce detection enhance chart readability and help traders quickly identify key levels.
Inputs:
Base Window Size: Sets the number of bars used in calculating the ALMA, allowing traders to adjust the sensitivity of the moving average. This parameter is dynamically adjusted based on current market volatility.
Offset: Determines the position of the ALMA curve. Higher values move the curve further away from the price. This value remains constant for stability.
Sigma: Controls the smoothness of the ALMA curve; a higher sigma results in a smoother curve. This value also remains constant.
ATR Period and Threshold Multiplier: Used to calculate the Average True Range (ATR) for the volatility filter, which determines whether the market conditions are sufficiently volatile to consider bounce signals.
How It Works:
Dynamic ALMA Calculation:
The script calculates the ALMA (Arnaud Legoux Moving Average) using the ta.alma function, dynamically adjusting the window size based on market volatility measured by the ATR (Average True Range). This ensures that the ALMA line remains responsive in high-volatility environments and smooth in low-volatility conditions.
Glow Effect:
To create a glow effect around the ALMA line, the script plots the ALMA multiple times with varying degrees of transparency. This visual enhancement helps the ALMA line stand out on the chart.
Bounce Detection with Volatility Filter:
The script uses two conditions to detect potential bounces:
Support Bounce: Detected when the low of the bar crosses above the ALMA line (ta.crossover(low, alma)) and the close is above the ALMA, while the volatility filter confirms sufficient market activity. This suggests potential support at the ALMA line.
Resistance Bounce: Detected when the high of the bar crosses below the ALMA line (ta.crossunder(high, alma)) and the close is below the ALMA, while the volatility filter confirms sufficient market activity. This indicates potential resistance at the ALMA line.
Labeling Bounce Points:
When a bounce is detected, the script labels it on the chart:
Support Bounces (S): Labeled with a blue "S" below the bar where a support bounce is detected.
Resistance Bounces (R): Labeled with a white "R" above the bar where a resistance bounce is detected.
Usage:
This enhanced indicator helps traders visualize key support and resistance levels more effectively by dynamically adjusting the ALMA moving average to market conditions. By detecting and labeling potential bounce points and filtering these signals based on volatility, traders can better identify entry and exit points in their trading strategy. The dynamic adjustments and visual enhancements make it easier to spot critical levels quickly and adapt to changing market conditions.
Customize the inputs to fit your trading style, and use this enhanced ALMA indicator to gain a more refined understanding of market trends, potential reversals, and breakouts.
Change in State of Delivery CISD ICT [TradingFinder] Liquidity 1🔵 Introduction
🟣 What is CISD ?
Change in State of Delivery (CISD) is a key concept in technical analysis, similar to Change of Character (ChoCh) and Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and Smart Money trading styles. Like ChoCh and MSS, CISD helps traders identify critical changes in market structure and make timely entries into trades.
To determine the CISD Level, traders typically review the last 1 to 4 candles to identify the first positive or negative candle. The CISD Level is then set using the opening price of the next candle.
In this version of the indicator, support and resistance levels are defined based on liquidity, which includes patterns such as SFP (Swing Failure Pattern), fake breakout, and false breakout.
Bullish CISD :
Bearish CISD :
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Bullish CISD (Change in State of Delivery Upward)
In Bullish CISD, the trend shifts from bearish to bullish after the price hits a liquidity zone, typically indicated by patterns such as SFP, fake breakout, or false breakout.
The steps to identify Bullish CISD are as follow s:
Identify the liquidity zone (SFP, fake breakout).
Review the candles and find the first positive candle.
Set the CISD Level using the opening price of the next candle after the positive candle.
Confirm the change in state of delivery when the price closes above the CISD Level.
Enter the trade after CISD confirmation.
🟣 Bearish CISD (Change in State of Delivery Downward)
In Bearish CISD, the trader looks for a shift from a bullish to a bearish trend. This change typically occurs when the price hits a liquidity level, indicated by patterns such as SFP or false breakout.
The steps to identify Bearish CISD are :
Identify the liquidity zone.
Review the candles and find the first negative candle.
Set the CISD Level using the opening price of the next candle after the negative candle.
Confirm the change in state of delivery when the price closes below the CISD Level.
Enter a short trade after CISD confirmation.
🟣 CISD Compared to ChoCh and MSS (CISD Vs ChoCh/ MSS)
CISD, ChoCh, and MSS are all tools for identifying trend changes in the market, but they have some differences :
CISD: Focuses on a change in the state of delivery and uses liquidity patterns (SFP, fake breakout) and key candles to confirm trend reversals.
ChoCh: Identifies a change in the market’s character, often signaling rapid shifts in trend direction.
MSS: Focuses on changes in market structure and identifies the breaking of key levels as a signal of trend shifts.
🔵 Settings
🟣 CISD Logical settings
Bar Back Check : Determining the return of candles to identify the CISD level.
CISD Level Validity : CISD level validity period based on the number of candles.
🟣 SFP Logical settings

Default data source: CLOSE
Users can also define and show overbought and oversold levels by unchecking the "Do not Show Indicator Overbought / Oversold Levels?" button from the settings menu.
In technical analysis, Fibonacci Levels on price can guide valuable trading signals for investors.
Levels can be significant support and resistance levels for breakouts and turning points.
This drawing tool aims to follow those necessary levels on indicators to observe critical levels and breakouts.
Consolidation Finder Expo [serkany88]It's relatively easy to create a repainting system where you can detect consolidation but it can be pretty hard to detect breakouts while the consolidation is happening live. This experimental approach came to my mind after brainstorming a bit.
What it does
This indicator DOES NOT REPAINT and try to show consolidation zones by coloring the bars or background to a selected color(default white)
How it works
In this approach we use weighted standard deviation of Vidya (Variable Index Dynamic Average created by Tushar Chande). The reason we use vidya is it's length is actually being adapted to volatility and lookback is dynamically adjusted. After getting vidya of base we also create same length vidya of high's and low's and get weighted standard deviation of those. After this we add and subtract those with base vidya and and get their average with our multiplier weight starting from the first bar. If our current value is higher than the average it means we are not in consolidation, else we are thus the bar and background will be painted.
How to use
Consolidation Finder can be used with your existing bot strategy as an additional filter or can be used with your manual trading system as an additional filter or detect breakouts. But be aware that you might need to tinker with length and multipliers in the settings depending on your timeframe to get best results possible before using it reliably. You can also enable the plots of vidya's from the style tab which is disabled by default to see how the deviations actually move if you are interested in it.
