Pairs Volume FXCM mini accountScript shows the volume of the currency pairs in the FXCM mini account. I set it daily or weekly to see which pair is picking up in activity. My style of currency trading is short holds on the highest volatility. This helps me determine which pairs have the highest volume (or tick activity since there is no true exchange for currency). I use this in conjunction with the other script I wrote, "Pairs Range" which shows which pairs have the highest daily range. This script has a built in 5-sma on each pair. High daily range and high volume is volatility and liquidity. **** This does not include currencies in CHF ****

Golden Cross, SMA 200 Moving Average Strategy (by ChartArt)This famous moving average strategy is very easy to follow to decide when to buy (go long) and when to take profit.
The strategy goes long when the faster SMA 50 (the simple moving average of the last 50 bars) crosses above the slower SMA 200. Orders are closed when the SMA 50 crosses below the SMA 200. This simple strategy does not have any other stop loss or take profit money management logic. The strategy does not short and goes long only!
Here is an article explaining the "golden cross" strategy in more detail:
www.stockopedia.com
On the S&P 500 index (symbol "SPX") this strategy worked on the daily chart 81% since price data is available since 1982. And on the DOW Jones Industrial Average (symbol "DOWI") this strategy worked on the daily chart 55% since price data is available since 1916. The low number of trades is in both cases not statistically significant though.
All trading involves high risk; past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.
Fractal Breakout Strategy (by ChartArt)This long only strategy determines the price of the last fractal top and enters a trade when the price breaks above the last fractal top. The strategy also calculates the average price of the last fractal tops to get the trend direction. The strategy exits the long trade, when the average of the fractal tops is falling (when the trend is lower highs as measured by fractals). And the user can manually set a time delay of this exit condition. The default setting is a long strategy exit always 3 bars after the long entry condition appeared.
In addition as gimmicks the fractals tops can be highlighted (the default is blue) and a line can be drawn based on the fractal tops.This fractal top line is colored by the fractal top average trend in combination with the fractal breakout condition.
This strategy works better on higher time-frames (weekly and monthly), but it also works on the daily and some other time-frames. This strategy does not repaint, no repainting.
P.S. I thank Tradingview user barracuda who helped me with the time based exit condition code. And user RicardoSantos for coding the definition of the fractal top, which he uses in his " Fractals" scripts.

Daily Close Comparison Strategy (by ChartArt via sirolf2009)Comparing daily close prices as a strategy.
This strategy is equal to the very popular "ANN Strategy" coded by sirolf2009(1) which calculates the percentage difference of the daily close price, but this bar-bone version works completely without his Artificial Neural Network (ANN) part.
Main difference besides stripping out the ANN is that my version uses close prices instead of OHLC4 prices, because they perform better in backtesting. And the default threshold is set to 0 to keep it simple instead of 0.0014 with a larger step value of 0.001 instead of 0.0001. Just like the ANN strategy this strategy goes long if the close of the current day is larger than the close price of the last day. If the inverse logic is true, the strategy goes short (last close larger current close). (2)
This basic strategy does not have any stop loss or take profit money management logic. And I repeat, the credit for the fundamental code idea goes to sirolf2009.
(2) Because the multi-time-frame close of the current day is future data, meaning not available in live-trading (also described as repainting), is the reason why this strategy and the original "ANN Strategy" coded by sirolf2009 perform so excellent in backtesting.

MACD + Stochastic, Double Strategy (by ChartArt)This strategy combines the classic stochastic strategy to buy when the stochastic is oversold with a classic MACD strategy to buy when the MACD histogram value goes above the zero line. Only difference to the classic stochastic is a default setting of 71 for overbought (classic setting 80) and 29 for oversold (classic setting 20).
Therefore this strategy goes long if the MACD histogram goes above zero and the stochastic indicator detects a oversold condition (value below 29). If the inverse logic is true, the strategy goes short (stochastic overbought condition with a value above 71 and the MACD histogram falling below the zero line value).
Please be aware that this pure double strategy using simply two classic indicators does not have any stop loss or take profit money management logic.

Bollinger + RSI, Double Strategy (by ChartArt) v1.1This strategy uses the RSI indicator together with the Bollinger Bands to sell when the price is above the upper Bollinger Band (and to buy when this value is below the lower band). This simple strategy only triggers when both the RSI and the Bollinger Band indicators are at the same time in a overbought or oversold condition.
UPDATE
In this updated version 1.1 the strategy was both simplified for the user (less inputs) and made more successful in backtesting by now using a 200 period for the SMA which is the basis for the Bollinger Band. I also reduced the number of color alerts to show fewer, but more relevant trading opportunities.
And just like the first version this strategy does not use close prices from higher-time frame and should not repaint after the current candle has closed. It might repaint like every Tradingview indicator while the current candle hasn't closed.

Bollinger + RSI, Double Strategy (by ChartArt)Bollinger Bands + RSI, Double Strategy
This strategy uses a slower RSI with period 16 to sell when the RSI increases over the value of 55 (or to buy when the value falls below 45), with the classic Bollinger Bands strategy to sell when the price is above the upper Bollinger Band and falls below it (and to buy when the price is below the lower band and rises above it). This strategy only triggers when both the RSI and the Bollinger Bands indicators are at the same time in the described overbought or oversold condition. In addition there are color alerts which can be deactivated.
This basic strategy is based upon the "RSI Strategy" and "Bollinger Bands Strategy" which were created by Tradingview and uses no money management like a trailing stop loss and no scalping methods. Every win/loss trade is simply counted from the last overbought/oversold condition to the next one.
This strategy does not use close prices from higher-time frame and should not repaint after the current candle has closed. It might repaint like every Tradingview indicator while the current candle hasn't closed.

Moving Average Consecutive Up/Down Strategy (by ChartArt)This simple strategy goes long (or short) if there are several consecutive increasing (or decreasing) moving average values in a row in the same direction. The bars can be colored using the raw moving average trend. And the background can be colored using the consecutive moving average trend setting. In addition a experimental line of the moving average change can be drawn.

MACD + SMA 200 Strategy (by ChartArt)Here is a combination of the classic MACD (moving average convergence divergence indicator) with the classic slow moving average SMA with period 200 together as a strategy.
This strategy goes long if the MACD histogram and the MACD momentum are both above zero and the fast MACD moving average is above the slow MACD moving average. As additional long filter the recent price has to be above the SMA 200. If the inverse logic is true, the strategy goes short. For the worst case there is a max intraday equity loss of 50% filter.

Quantum Breakout Sentinel [LuxAlgo + AlgoAlpha Fusion]🛠️ Core Features
🔹 Swing Failure Patterns (SFP)
Bullish SFP (Blue): Price sweeps below a swing low but closes back above confirmation → Potential reversal long.
Bearish SFP (Red): Price sweeps above a swing high but closes back below confirmation → Potential reversal short.
✅ Option to toggle lines, wicks, and confirmation levels.
🎯 Precision-based: Filters out weak or unclear liquidity grabs.
🔸 Range Breakout Zones
Compression Boxes detect consolidation zones with low volatility.
When breakout occurs, volume profile paints:
💚 Bull volume dominance (turquoise highlight)
❤️ Bear volume dominance (red highlight)
These zones represent energy storage areas — once broken, expect strong directional expansion.
🧠 How to Use It Effectively
1. Reversal Entries (Using SFPs)
Look for SFPs that:
Form at key HTF structure (e.g., daily swing highs/lows)
Show a clear ▲ (bull) or ▼ (bear) label after a false breakout
Confluence with demand/supply zones = 💯
2. Breakout Trades (Using Range Boxes)
Wait for a volatility box to form (grey background).
Watch for breakouts with volume imbalance:
Bullish breakout + dominant bull box → Go long
Bearish breakout + dominant bear box → Go short
Target 1.5x to 2x box height for conservative exits.
3. Combining Both
BEST SETUPS:
SFP at the edge of a range box → Follow-through trade
Volume-confirmed breakout after fakeout (SFP) = Smart Money Trap Reversal

Delta Magnet Zone LiteDelta Magnet Zone Lite is exactly what it sounds like. It is areas where price cold potentially act as a magnet zone for price. Delta Magnet Zone Lite is a lightweight yet powerful visual tool that highlights potential liquidity traps and high-probability reversal zones based on volume spikes and wick imbalances. Designed for precision traders, this indicator visually marks key “magnet” zones where price may react, reverse, or consolidate due to prior aggressive buying or selling activity.
🔹 Core Logic:
Volume Spike Detection
Identifies candles with significantly higher volume than the moving average (customizable). These are likely areas of institutional interest or stop-hunt events.
Wick Ratio Analysis
Measures the size of the upper or lower wick relative to the total candle range. When combined with volume spikes, this helps detect:
Bullish Traps: Large lower wicks with strong buying volume
Bearish Traps: Large upper wicks with strong selling volume
Smart Zone Marking
When trap conditions are met, the script draws a semi-transparent colored box (green for bullish, red for bearish) that extends forward in time, highlighting a magnet zone—a price area likely to be retested or respected by future price action.
🛠 Customization Options:
Volume Spike Threshold
Adjust the multiplier for defining what qualifies as "high volume" relative to the average.
Wick Ratio Sensitivity
Fine-tune how extreme the wick size must be to qualify as a trap.
Zone Lifetime (Lookback)
Control how many bars each zone remains active on the chart.
Toggle Visibility
Turn bullish or bearish zones on/off independently for clean charting.
Ideal Use Cases:
Spotting hidden liquidity zones
Identifying exhaustion points in fast markets
Tracking institutional order imbalances
Enhancing confirmation for entry/exit signals
Whether you're trading intraday breakouts or swing-level reversals, Delta Magnet Zone Lite brings clarity to key reaction levels derived from raw price and volume behavior.

AMD Setup - Full (Long + Short) ICT ModelICTSNIPERKILLS!
Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution (AMD) Script!
1. Clarifies Structure: Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution (AMD)
The script visualizes the AMD framework:
Accumulation → Price ranges inside Initial Balance (IB).
Manipulation → Liquidity sweep above IB High or below IB Low.
Distribution → Market Structure Shift (MSS) confirms a directional move.
This gives you a narrative structure for each session, helping you avoid random trades.
🧠 2. Filters Out Noise with MSS Confirmation
It waits for:
A liquidity sweep (manipulation),
Followed by a market structure shift (MSS),
And then confirms an entry only after a candle closes beyond structure.
This structure:
Reduces false signals,
Improves trade timing,
Helps you align with smart money delivery.
🕘 3. Focuses on the Right Time Window (Initial Balance)
You only engage after the 10:30 AM EST close, once the Initial Balance is formed.This aligns with ICT's focus on:
Killzones (like 9:30–11:00),
Avoiding early overtrading,
Letting the market tip its hand first (through sweeps + MSS).
This timing logic supports discipline and consistency.
🟢🔴 4. Marks Entries with Risk/Reward Guidance
It plots:
AMD SHORT / LONG entries after MSS + candle confirmation,
Basic TP and SL visual markers using a static risk-reward (2:1),
Optional Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) for refinement zones.
While static, these help plan trades visually and frame targets quickly, especially if you're scalping or trading micro futures like MNQ.
📈 5. Alerts You in Real Time
Instead of manually watching:
You'll get alerts when sweeps or MSS setups appear.
You can stay focused during the killzone or walk away and return when signals trigger.
This supports patience and alert-based discipline.
💡
You already:
Use 15M/1M execution,
Wait for ERL or HOD/LOD sweeps,
Look for MSS + CISD,
Trade in killzones only,
Target 50–62–70% Fibs with SMT/FVG confluence.
This script:✅ Automates sweep + MSS detection✅ Plots AMD-based entries visually✅ Simplifies your killzone execution✅ Helps avoid FOMO by filtering setups✅ Keeps your journal entries clean with structure

SMC ICT – Simplified Daily Trend & Reversal AnalyzerThis Pine Script provides a simplified approach to analyzing daily trends and potential reversals using concepts inspired by Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and ICT (Inner Circle Trader).
What It Does:
• Detects daily uptrend and downtrend conditions by comparing the current daily high/low to the previous day’s values.
• Highlights potential bullish or bearish reversal zones when price behavior suggests a shift in sentiment.
• Automatically draws dashed lines for the previous day's high and low.
• Labels these high/low levels for quick visual reference.
How to Use:
Apply this indicator to any timeframe chart. Use the plotted trend markers to assess daily direction and potential reversal signals. The dashed lines (previous high/low) can be used as reference points for liquidity zones or break/retest entries.
User Interface:
The indicator displays labels and shapes in English. This script is intended for educational and trading workflow enhancement purposes.
Note:
This is an open-source tool designed for clarity and basic SMC/ICT application. It is best used in combination with other confluences like FVGs, order blocks, and liquidity sweeps.
Impulse Profile Zones [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Impulse Profile Zones is a volume-based tool designed to highlight high-impact candles and visualize hidden liquidity zones inside them using microstructure data. It’s ideal for identifying volume concentration and potential reaction points during impulsive market moves.
Whenever a candle exceeds a specified size threshold, this indicator captures its structure and overlays a detailed intrabar volume profile (from a 10x lower timeframe), allowing traders to analyze the distribution of interest within powerful market impulses.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Filters candles that exceed a user-defined threshold by size.
For qualifying candles, retrieves lower timeframe price and volume data.
Divides the candle’s body into 10 volume bins and calculates the volume per zone. Highlights the bin with the highest volume as the Point of Control (POC) .
Each POC line extends forward until a new impulse is detected.
🔵 FEATURES
Impulse Candle Detection:
Triggers only when a candle’s body size is larger than the defined threshold.
Lower Timeframe Profiling:
Aggregates 10-bin volume data from a lower timeframe (typically 1/10 of current TF).
Volume Distribution Bars:
Each bin displays a stylized bar using unicode block characters (e.g., ▇▇▇, ▇▇ or ▇--).
The bar size reflects the relative volume intensity.
POC Zone Mapping:
The bin with the highest volume is marked with a bold horizontal line.
Its value is labeled and extended until the next valid impulse.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use large candle profiles to assess which price levels inside a move were most actively traded.
Watch the POC line as a magnet for future price interaction (support/resistance or reaction).
Combine with market structure or order block indicators to identify confluence levels.
Adjust the “Filter Large Candles” input to detect more or fewer events based on volatility.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Impulse Profile Zones is a hybrid microstructure tool that bridges lower timeframe volume with higher timeframe impulse candles. By revealing where most of the volume occurred inside large moves, traders gain a deeper view into hidden liquidity, enabling smarter trade entries and more confident profit-taking zones.
USDTUSD Stochastic RSI [SAKANE]Release Note
■ Overview
The USDTUSD Stochastic RSI indicator visualizes shifts in market sentiment and liquidity by applying the Stochastic RSI to the USDT/USD price pair.
Rather than tracking the price of Bitcoin directly, this tool observes the momentum of USDT, a key intermediary in most crypto transactions, to detect early signals of trend reversals.
■ Background & Motivation
USDT exhibits two distinct characteristics:
Its credibility as a long-term store of value is limited.
Yet, it serves as one of the most liquid assets in the crypto space and is widely used as a trading base pair.
Because most BTC trades involve converting fiat into USDT and vice versa, USDT/USD frequently deviates slightly from its peg to USD.
These deviations—though subtle—often occur just before major shifts in the broader crypto market.
This indicator is designed to detect such moments of structural imbalance by applying momentum analysis to USDT itself.
■ Feature Highlights
Calculates RSI and Stochastic RSI on the USDT/USD closing price
Supports customizable smoothing via SMA or EMA
Background shading dynamically visualizes overheated or cooled market states (thresholds are adjustable)
Displayed in a separate pane, keeping it visually distinct from the price chart
■ Usage Insights
This indicator is based on an observable pattern:
When the Stochastic RSI bottoms out, Bitcoin tends to form a price bottom shortly afterward
Conversely, when the indicator peaks, Bitcoin tends to top out with a slight delay
Since USDT acts as a gateway for capital in and out of the market, changes in its momentum often foreshadow turning points in BTC.
This allows traders to anticipate shifts in sentiment rather than merely reacting to them.
■ Unique Value Proposition
Unlike conventional price-based indicators, this tool offers a structural perspective.
It focuses on USDT as a mechanism of liquidity flow, making it possible to detect the "hidden rhythm" of the crypto market.
In that sense, this is not just a technical tool, but an entry point into market microstructure analysis—allowing users to read the market’s intentions rather than just its movements.

JPMorgan G7 Volatility IndexThe JPMorgan G7 Volatility Index: Scientific Analysis and Professional Applications
Introduction
The JPMorgan G7 Volatility Index (G7VOL) represents a sophisticated metric for monitoring currency market volatility across major developed economies. This indicator functions as an approximation of JPMorgan's proprietary volatility indices, providing traders and investors with a normalized measurement of cross-currency volatility conditions (Clark, 2019).
Theoretical Foundation
Currency volatility is fundamentally defined as "the statistical measure of the dispersion of returns for a given security or market index" (Hull, 2018, p.127). In the context of G7 currencies, this volatility measurement becomes particularly significant due to the economic importance of these nations, which collectively represent more than 50% of global nominal GDP (IMF, 2022).
According to Menkhoff et al. (2012, p.685), "currency volatility serves as a global risk factor that affects expected returns across different asset classes." This finding underscores the importance of monitoring G7 currency volatility as a proxy for global financial conditions.
Methodology
The G7VOL indicator employs a multi-step calculation process:
Individual volatility calculation for seven major currency pairs using standard deviation normalized by price (Lo, 2002)
- Weighted-average combination of these volatilities to form a composite index
- Normalization against historical bands to create a standardized scale
- Visual representation through dynamic coloring that reflects current market conditions
The mathematical foundation follows the volatility calculation methodology proposed by Bollerslev et al. (2018):
Volatility = σ(returns) / price × 100
Where σ represents standard deviation calculated over a specified timeframe, typically 20 periods as recommended by the Bank for International Settlements (BIS, 2020).
Professional Applications
Professional traders and institutional investors employ the G7VOL indicator in several key ways:
1. Risk Management Signaling
According to research by Adrian and Brunnermeier (2016), elevated currency volatility often precedes broader market stress. When the G7VOL breaches its high volatility threshold (typically 1.5 times the 100-period average), portfolio managers frequently reduce risk exposure across asset classes. As noted by Borio (2019, p.17), "currency volatility spikes have historically preceded equity market corrections by 2-7 trading days."
2. Counter-Cyclical Investment Strategy
Low G7 volatility periods (readings below the lower band) tend to coincide with what Shin (2017) describes as "risk-on" environments. Professional investors often use these signals to increase allocations to higher-beta assets and emerging markets. Campbell et al. (2021) found that G7 volatility in the lowest quintile historically preceded emerging market outperformance by an average of 3.7% over subsequent quarters.
3. Regime Identification
The normalized volatility framework enables identification of distinct market regimes:
- Readings above 1.0: Crisis/high volatility regime
- Readings between -0.5 and 0.5: Normal volatility regime
- Readings below -1.0: Unusually calm markets
According to Rey (2015), these regimes have significant implications for global monetary policy transmission mechanisms and cross-border capital flows.
Interpretation and Trading Applications
G7 currency volatility serves as a barometer for global financial conditions due to these currencies' centrality in international trade and reserve status. As noted by Gagnon and Ihrig (2021, p.423), "G7 currency volatility captures both trade-related uncertainty and broader financial market risk appetites."
Professional traders apply this indicator in multiple contexts:
- Leading indicator: Research from the Federal Reserve Board (Powell, 2020) suggests G7 volatility often leads VIX movements by 1-3 days, providing advance warning of broader market volatility.
- Correlation shifts: During periods of elevated G7 volatility, cross-asset correlations typically increase what Brunnermeier and Pedersen (2009) term "correlation breakdown during stress periods." This phenomenon informs portfolio diversification strategies.
- Carry trade timing: Currency carry strategies perform best during low volatility regimes as documented by Lustig et al. (2011). The G7VOL indicator provides objective thresholds for initiating or exiting such positions.
