[RenkoCore] PublicWhen it comes the Renko chart, we all know it has its advantages & disadvantages compared to the candle-stick chart. My aim of this was to alleviate some of the disadvantages by providing some sort of structure on Renko chart. These set of tools may hopefully help your trading journey on Renko chart.
Helpful tips:
a) Enable wicks on your Renko settings, this indicator needs wicks to work.
b) Choose correct size (I recommend traditional size option) for your Renko chart as well as for your instrument.
c) Keep it on 1-second time frame, anything other than that doesn't work on TradingView's Renko. This is important as price will not repaint.
d) If you want to see bigger picture (like 4hr/daily on candle-stick chart), just increase your Renko size, but still keep it on 1-second timeframe.
This toolset includes couple different methods to provide some structures as explained below:
1. 📌 Balance | Price Action Equilibrium Zones
Overview
The Balance is a visual framework designed to evaluate directional bias and internal structure in price action. It measures net bullish/bearish momentum within a configurable rolling window, while highlighting key structural turning points based on multiple custom sensitivity levels. This tool helps traders stay in sync with market rhythm by emphasizing balance, imbalance, and inflection zones.
🔧 How It Works:
Inflection Tiers
Three customizable rounds of pivot-based divergence detection—labeled as 1°, 2°, and 3°—automatically identify regular bullish and regular bearish pivot structures. Though may not be always accurate, these structural signals are intended to keep user's focus to continually reflect emerging internal market shifts.
Balance Limit
Monitors directional bar disparity within a customizable retrospective span. When the net balance exceeds ±50% of the range, the line turns green to suggest strong directional bias. A red fill zone between these thresholds indicates equilibrium or no-trade conditions.
Volatility Based Reversal (Candle Reversal Detector)
This tool scans for extreme price movements relative to local volatility baselines, helping traders detect possible tops and bottoms before major price reversals or pauses. Compares current price action to the lowest recent volatility anchor or if price sharply dips below the highest recent volatility anchor.
🧠 Use Case Recommendations:
Discretionary trading to visually confirm balance and momentum shifts.
Confluence strategies, combining the balance counter with trend indicators or support/resistance levels.
Structure mapping, to highlight exhaustion zones or emerging reversals based on internal divergences.
Avoid using this tool in isolation. It is most effective when combined with broader market context or other confirmation layers.
2. 📌 Primary Level Detection
Overview
This is a precision tool for detecting dynamic price zones where significant market reversals may begin. Using a blend of momentum, price tension, and volatility structure, it identifies potential top and bottom areas — and tracks them with adaptive channel levels that evolve in real time.
🔧 How It Works:
Combines price action, RSI-based bias, and volatility deviation to identify moments when price is overextended.
Reacts only to major changes — reducing false positives in choppy markets.
Levels persist on the chart until a new valid reversal is confirmed, giving you visual structure and actionable areas to work with.
🧠 Use Case Recommendations:
Trading reversals, reversion-to-mean, or liquidity sweeps
Confirming entries from other indicators (like divergence, order blocks, or support/resistance)
Analyzing volatile markets where rapid direction changes are common (e.g., crypto, futures, scalping)
3. 📌 Secondary Level Detection
Overview
This tool highlights where price may be overextended and due for a short-term reversal, based on recent price structure.
🔧 How It Works:
It uses dynamic bar-count and swing conditions to identify potential price turning points after extended directional moves or strong sequence of bars in same direction.
Levels persist on the chart until a new valid reversal is confirmed, giving you visual structure and actionable areas to work with.
🧠 Use Case Recommendations:
Trading reversals, reversion-to-mean, or liquidity sweeps
Confirming entries from other indicators (like divergence, order blocks, or support/resistance)
⚠️ Important Notes:
This indicator does not repaint. All pivots and plots are based on closed candles and verified conditions.
This tool does not provide trade signals. It is a structural analysis tool intended to assist in discretionary decision-making. This indicator is for informational and educational purposes only. Use in combination with your own trading strategy, risk management, and market context. The signals generated do not guarantee outcomes and should not be used in isolation.
It is not intended to be financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any security or asset. Trading involves risk. Always do your own research and consult with a licensed financial advisor before making any trading decisions. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

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
FXC Candle strategyFxc candle strategy for Gold scalping.
Scalping is a fast-paced trading strategy focusing on capturing small, frequent price movements for incremental profits. High market liquidity and tight spreads are needed for scalping, minimizing execution risks. Scalpers should trade during peak liquidity to avoid slippage
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.
■ Practical Tips
Look for reversals in momentum as potential BTC entry or exit points.
Overlay this indicator with the BTC chart to compare timing and divergence.
Combine with other tools such as on-chain data or macro indicators for comprehensive analysis.
■ Final Thoughts
USDTUSD Stochastic RSI is designed with the belief that the most important market signals often come from what drives the price, not the price itself.
By tuning into the “heartbeat” of capital flow, this indicator sheds light on market dynamics that would otherwise remain unseen.
We hope it proves useful in your trading and research.
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.

TBR(3AM, 9AM, 3PM)How It Works
• Monitors 3 key institutional hours: 3AM (London Open), 9AM (New York Open), and 3PM (US Close)
• Captures the full range (high and low) of each 1H candle at those times
• Confirms breakout only if the next 1H candle closes above or below the range
• Draws the zone (box) aligned with the original hourly candle (not delayed)
• Displays retracement lines at:
- 25% (initial reaction)
- 50% (mitigation level)
- 75% (deep retracement entry)
Key Features
• Precise zone alignment — Boxes are anchored to the actual breakout candle
• Mitigation logic — Zones are considered mitigated once price revisits the 0.5 level
• Expiry filter — Zones automatically remove after 7 days
• Time zone support — Choose from major time zones or fixed UTC offsets (e.g., Etc/GMT+4)
• Multi-timeframe compatible — Works on all timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m, etc.)
• Clean structure — No duplicated boxes on lower timeframes
• Fully customizable colors and visibility toggles
Settings
• Toggle visibility for 3AM / 9AM / 3PM zones independently

Tip
• Use this script with liquidity/volume indicators or SMT divergence for even stronger confluence.
Big Money TrackerOI-Anchored VWAP: Big Money Position Tracker
Understanding VWAP in Big Money Trading
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) is the benchmark most widely used by institutions to assess their execution quality and market timing. It represents the average price a security has traded at throughout the day, weighted by volume.
Why Institutions Care About VWAP:
Portfolio managers often mandate trades to be executed at or better than VWAP
Large orders are broken down and executed around VWAP to minimize market impact
Trading desks use VWAP as a neutral price to assess if they're buying too high or selling too low
Algorithmic trading systems use VWAP as a key reference for order execution
The OI-VWAP Edge
This indicator takes Big Money VWAP trading to the next level by anchoring VWAP calculations to significant Open Interest (OI) changes. This helps identify not just where institutions are trading, but where they're establishing significant positions in the crypto markets.
Key Features:
Dynamic OI-based VWAP anchoring that identifies where large positions are established
Previous VWAP level tracking to monitor historical Big Money interest points
Smart sweep detection system for both current and previous VWAP levels
Standard deviation bands for volatility context
What Makes This Indicator Unique:
Uses aggregated Open Interest data from major exchanges (Binance, BitMEX, Bybit, Kraken)
Automatically detects significant OI increases to anchor VWAP levels
Tracks both current and previous Big Money reference prices
Identifies potential stop runs and liquidity sweeps
Trading Applications:
The indicator helps identify where large positions are established and how they might influence price action:
Defense Zones: When price approaches a VWAP level with high OI, institutions often defend their positions
Liquidation Levels: Previous VWAP levels can become liquidation targets for trapped positions
Stop Runs: Sweep detection helps identify when large players might be hunting stops or creating liquidity
Mean Reversion: SD bands help identify potential reversal zones around Big Money average prices
Best Practices:
Look for price reaction at current VWAP when OI is increasing
Monitor sweeps of previous VWAP levels for potential reversals
Use SD bands to gauge volatility expansion/contraction around Big Money positions
Pay attention to failed sweeps as they often indicate strong position defense
Trading Scenarios:
// Bullish Position Defense:
// 1. High OI increase creates new VWAP (Big Money entry)
// 2. Price tests VWAP from above (retest of entry)
// 3. Failed bearish sweeps = shorts trapped
// 4. Strong defense + trapped shorts = potential squeeze
// Bearish Liquidation:
// 1. Previous VWAP level above current price
// 2. High OI trapped at higher prices
// 3. Price sweeps above then fails = more trapped longs
// 4. Break below = potential cascading liquidations
Extended-hours Volume vs AVOL// ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
// Extended-Hours Volume vs AVOL • HOW IT WORKS & HOW TO TRADE IT
// ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
//
// ░ What this indicator is
// ------------------------
// • It accumulates PRE-MARKET (04:00-09:30 ET) and AFTER-HOURS (16:00-20:00 ET)
// volume on intraday charts and compares that running total with the stock’s
// 21-day average daily volume (“AVOL” by default).
// • Three live read-outs are shown in the data-window/table:
//
// AH – volume traded since the 16:00 ET close
// PM – volume traded before the 09:30 ET open
// Ext – AH + PM (updates in pre-market only)
// %AVOL – Ext ÷ AVOL × 100 (updates in pre-market)
//
// • It is intended for U.S. equities but the session strings can be edited for
// other markets.
//
// ░ Why it matters
// ----------------
// Big extended-hours volume almost always precedes outsized intraday range.
// By quantifying that volume as a % of “normal” trade (AVOL), you can filter
// which gappers and news names deserve focus *before* the bell rings.
//
// ░ Quick-start trade plan (educational template – tune to taste)
// ----------------------------------------------------------------
// 1. **Scan** the watch-list between 08:30-09:25 ET.
// ► Keep charts on 1- or 5-minute candles with “Extended Hours” ✔ checked.
// 2. **Filter** by `Ext` or `%AVOL`:
// – Skip if < 10 % → very low interest
// – Flag if 20-50 % → strong interest, Tier-1 candidate
// – Laser-focus if > 50 % → crowd favourite; expect liquidity & range
// 3. **Opening Range Breakout (long example)**
// • Preconditions: Ext ≥ 20 % & price above yesterday’s close.
// • Let the first 1- or 5-min bar complete after 09:30.
// • Stop-buy 1 tick above that bar (or pre-market high – whichever higher).
// • Initial stop below that bar low (or pre-market low).
// • First target = 1R or next HTF resistance.
// 4. **Red-to-Green reversal (gap-down long)**
// • Ext ≥ 30 % but pre-market gap is negative.
// • Enter as price reclaims yesterday’s close on live volume.
// • Stop under reclaim bar; scale out into VWAP / first liquidity pocket.
// 5. **Risk** – size so the full stop is ≤ 1 R of account. Volume fade or
// loss of %AVOL slope is a reason to tighten or exit early.
//
// ░ Tips
// ------
// • AVOL look-back can be changed in the input panel (21 days ⇒ ~1 month).
// • To monitor several symbols, open a multi-chart layout and sort your
// watch-list by %AVOL descending – leaders float to the top automatically.
// • Replace colour constants with hex if the namespace ever gets shadowed.

OB Sweeps ReversalOB Sweeps Reversal is a high-precision market structure tool that identifies and dynamically tracks bullish and bearish order blocks — key zones where institutional participants are likely to be active. These zones act as support and resistance levels, adapting to market behavior in real time.
The script monitors price interaction with each OB and classifies its status as:
Unmitigated (price has not yet returned)
Mitigating (price is testing the zone)
Invalidated (zone has been broken)
Traders can use these zones directly as actionable support/resistance — or wait for additional confirmation via the system’s liquidity sweep detection and optional filters.
🔍 Key Features:
Automatically detects and plots bullish and bearish OBs
Tracks mitigation status and updates visuals accordingly
Detects liquidity sweeps of recent highs/lows
Optional filters:
• 200 EMA trend direction
• Momentum of current or previous candle
Plots stop-loss and take-profit lines using ATR-based logic
Clean entry labels with full contextual data
Built-in alert system with constant-string messages (automation ready)
📈 How to Use:
Load the script on any timeframe (15m–4H recommended)
Observe the live OB zones as they develop
Trade based on price interaction:
• Bounce off a bullish OB = potential long setup
• Rejection from a bearish OB = potential short
• Sweep + snapback into an OB = optional trap reversal entry
SL/TP levels are drawn automatically for reference
Use alerts to automate or monitor high-conviction setups
The order blocks themselves are valuable on their own — even without waiting for a signal. They can be used as dynamic support and resistance zones, offering excellent structure-based trading opportunities.

iFVG (BPR)
This indicator detects Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Inversion Zones (iFVGs) based concept from the ICT methodology.
An iFVG forms when a bullish and a bearish FVG overlap, creating a double imbalance zone. These are high-reaction points often targeted by smart money.
🔷 What It Detects
Bullish FVG: When the high of Candle 1 is lower than the low of Candle 3
Bearish FVG: When the low of Candle 1 is higher than the high of Candle 3
iFVG (or BPR): When a bullish and bearish FVG overlap, forming a double imbalance zone
🔷Mitigation Logic
An FVG or BPR becomes an iFVG when price closes against its original bias Once this happens, the zone is reclassified as a potential support or resistance (iFVG)
If price later mitigates the iFVG, all visual elements are automatically removed to keep the chart clean
🔷Visual Output
Standard FVGs: Customizable lines between Candle 1 and Candle 3
iFVGs (mitigated BPRs): Adjustable and highlighted rectangles to show the full zone
Mitigation Type: FVG or iFVG zones disappear when 50% of the zone is reached
🔷Custom Settings
Show Last Zones: Set how many recent zones to display on the chart (max 100)
Mitigation Type: Based on the percentage of zone coverage
Color & Style: Customize the appearance of FVG and iFVG zones
🔷 Use Case
This indicator is designed for real-time institutional analysis, helping traders identify:
Recent imbalances (FVGs)
Confluence zones (iFVGs = BPRs)
High-reaction points in the market
Ideal when combined with market structure, liquidity levels, and Kill Zones
Best used in combination with market structure, liquidity zones, and Kill Zone timing .
Apex Edge - MTF Confluence PanelApex Edge – MTF Confluence Panel
Description:
The Apex Edge – MTF Confluence Panel is a powerful multi-timeframe analysis tool built to streamline trade decision-making by aggregating key confluences across three user-defined timeframes. The panel visually presents the state of five core market signals—Trend, Momentum, Sweep, Structure, and Trap—alongside a unified Score column that summarizes directional bias with clarity.
Traders can customize the number of bullish/bearish conditions required to trigger a score signal, allowing the tool to be tailored for both conservative and aggressive trading styles. This script is designed for those who value a clean, structured, and objective approach to identifying market alignment—whether scalping or swing trading.
How it Works:
Across each of the three selected timeframes, the panel evaluates:
Trend: Based on a user-configurable Hull Moving Average (HMA), the script compares price relative to trend to determine bullish, bearish, or neutral bias.
Momentum: Uses OBV (On-Balance Volume) with volume spike detection to identify bursts of strong buying or selling pressure.
Sweep: Detects potential liquidity grabs by identifying price rejections beyond prior swing highs/lows. A break below a previous low with reversal signals bullish intent (and vice versa for bearish).
Structure: Uses dynamic pivot-based logic to identify market structure breaks (BOS) beyond recent confirmed swing levels.
Trap: Flags potential false moves by measuring RSI overbought/oversold signal clusters combined with minimal price movement—highlighting exhaustion or deceptive breaks.
Score: A weighted consensus of the above components. The number of required confluences to trigger a score (default: 3) can be set by the user via input, offering flexibility in signal sensitivity.
Why It’s Useful for Traders:
Quick Decision-Making: The color-coded panel provides instant visual feedback on whether confluences align across timeframes—ideal for fast-paced environments like scalping or high-volatility news sessions.
Multi-Timeframe Confidence: Helps eliminate guesswork by confirming whether higher and lower timeframe conditions support your trade idea.
Customizability: Adjustable confluence threshold means traders can fine-tune how sensitive the system is—more signals for faster entries, stricter confluence for higher conviction trades.
Built-In Alerts: Automated alerts for score alignment, trap detection, and liquidity sweeps allow traders to stay informed even when away from the screen.
Strategic Edge: Supports directional bias confirmation and trade filtering with logic designed to mimic professional decision-making workflows.
Features:
Clean, real-time confluence table across three user-selected timeframes
Configurable score sensitivity via “Minimum Confluences for Score” input
Cell-based colour coding for at-a-glance trade direction
Built-in alerts for score alignment, traps, and sweep triggers
Note - This Indicator works great in sync with Apex Edge - Session Sweep Pro
Useful levels for TP = previous session high/low boxes or fib levels.

Extended Altman Z-Score ModelThe Extended Altman Z-Score Model represents a significant advancement in financial analysis and risk assessment, building upon the foundational work of Altman (1968) while incorporating contemporary data analytics approaches as proposed by Fung (2023). This sophisticated model enhances the traditional bankruptcy prediction framework by integrating additional financial metrics and modern analytical techniques, offering a more comprehensive approach to identifying financially distressed companies.
The model's architecture is built upon two distinct yet complementary scoring systems. The traditional Altman Z-Score components form the foundation, including Working Capital to Total Assets (X1), which measures a company's short-term liquidity and operational efficiency. Retained Earnings to Total Assets (X2) provides insight into the company's historical profitability and reinvestment capacity. EBIT to Total Assets (X3) evaluates operational efficiency and earning power, while Market Value of Equity to Total Liabilities (X4) assesses market perception and leverage. Sales to Total Assets (X5) measures asset utilization efficiency.
These traditional components are enhanced by extended metrics introduced by Fung (2023), which provide additional layers of financial analysis. The Cash Ratio (X6) offers insights into immediate liquidity and financial flexibility. Asset Composition (X7) evaluates the quality and efficiency of asset utilization, particularly in working capital management. The Debt Ratio (X8) provides a comprehensive view of financial leverage and long-term solvency, while the Net Profit Margin (X9) measures overall profitability and operational efficiency.
The scoring system employs a sophisticated formula that combines the traditional Z-Score with weighted additional metrics. The traditional Z-Score is calculated as 1.2X1 + 1.4X2 + 3.3X3 + 0.6X4 + 1.0X5, while the extended components are weighted as follows: 0.5 * X6 + 0.3 * X7 - 0.4 * X8 + 0.6 * X9. This enhanced scoring mechanism provides a more nuanced assessment of a company's financial health, incorporating both traditional bankruptcy prediction metrics and modern financial analysis approaches.
The model categorizes companies into three distinct risk zones, each with specific implications for financial stability and required actions. The Safe Zone (Score > 3.0) indicates strong financial health, with low probability of financial distress and suitability for conservative investment strategies. The Grey Zone (Score between 1.8 and 3.0) suggests moderate risk, requiring careful monitoring and additional fundamental analysis. The Danger Zone (Score < 1.8) signals high risk of financial distress, necessitating immediate attention and potential risk mitigation strategies.
In practical application, the model requires systematic and regular monitoring. Users should track the Extended Score on a quarterly basis, monitoring changes in individual components and comparing results with industry benchmarks. Component analysis should be conducted separately, identifying specific areas of concern and tracking trends in individual metrics. The model's effectiveness is significantly enhanced when used in conjunction with other financial metrics and when considering industry-specific factors and macroeconomic conditions.
The technical implementation in Pine Script v6 provides real-time calculations of both traditional and extended scores, offering visual representation of risk zones, detailed component breakdowns, and warning signals for critical values. The indicator automatically updates with new financial data and provides clear visual cues for different risk levels, making it accessible to both technical and fundamental analysts.
However, as noted by Fung (2023), the model has certain limitations that users should consider. It may not fully account for industry-specific factors, requires regular updates of financial data, and should be used in conjunction with other analysis tools. The model's effectiveness can be enhanced by incorporating industry-specific benchmarks and considering macroeconomic factors that may affect financial performance.

10 AM NY Box - By KaVeH📦 10 AM New York Box till 4 PM — \
--By KaVeH--
This indicator automatically draws a price range box that captures the high and low between 10:00 AM and 11:00 AM New York Time (Eastern Time) on "5-minute charts".
### 🔍 What It Does
The "10 AM NY Box" is a simple but powerful visualization tool for day traders and ICT-based strategies. It highlights a key hourly session right after the "New York open" — often a time of increased volatility, liquidity grabs, and the formation of critical intraday highs or lows.
### 📊 Features
Time Window: Customizable start and end hours (defaults: 10 AM to 11 AM NY time).
Box Color: Customizable with transparency.
Chart Restriction: The indicator "only works on 5-minute charts" to ensure accuracy and prevent misalignment.
### ⚙️ Inputs
- 'Start Hour (NY Time)' – Default: 10
- 'End Hour (NY Time)' – Default: 11
- 'Box Color' – Default: Red with transparency
### 📈 How It Works
- During the specified time window, the script tracks the "highest high and lowest low".
- Once the time window ends, it draws a "box" from the starting to the ending time, extending a little beyond to keep it visible.
- Each day's box is created independently, and only once per day.
### 🧠 Use Cases
- Spotting potential liquidity zones
- Identifying breakout or fakeout traps
- Aligning with ICT concepts like "FVG", "BAG", or "Judas Swing"
### ⚠️ Notes & Limitations
- "Only functions on 5-minute timeframes" — this is intentional to maintain session accuracy.
- Does not repaint.
- Time is aligned to **New York (Eastern Time)** regardless of your chart’s timezone.
- One box per day.
Key Recent Highs and LowsKey Recent Highs & Lows — Session‐Aware Market Structure
TL;DR
This tool plots the most important intraday price extremes for every U.S.‑equity trading segment—Early Premarket • Western Premarket • Regular Hours • Post‑Market Hours • Yesterday’s Range—and labels them so you can trade break‑outs, retests and mean‑reversion with instant context.
📐 Theory & Why These Levels Matter
Liquidity Pools
Visible session extremes attract resting orders (stop‑losses, take‑profits, opening prints). Price often accelerates into them and reacts at them.
Market Memory
The previous day’s high/low is a widely‑watched pivot for gap fills, overnight inventory corrections and multi‑day breakouts.
Mean‑Reversion Windows
Statistically, pre‑ and post‑market ranges are thin; an aggressive spike outside those bands often retraces when full liquidity returns.
Break‑Out Confirmation
A true breakout isn’t just a tick above RTH‑high—it usually closes or at least consolidates above the prior extreme. Seeing all bands lets you gauge whether a push is “real” or just probing thinner sessions.
Put simply, these levels help you decide:
Break‑out ➜ trade in the direction of expansion past a session extreme with follow‑through.
Fade/Mean‑Revert ➜ fade a spike that tags an extreme without commitment (e.g., hits Western‑Premkt‑High then stalls before RTH).
🔍 What the Script Draws
Session (UTC‑4 EST) Default Color / Style Typical Use‑Case
Early Premarket 4 – 7 AM Thick semi‑transparent orange line detect overnight retail spikes / fade plays
Western Premarket 7 – 9 : 30 AM Dashed orange‑red breakout watch as U.S. brokers open
Regular Session (RTH) 9 : 30 – 16 : 00 Bold teal dotted line core intraday structure; classic highs/lows
Post‑Market 16 – 23 : 59 Soft indigo band after‑hours news moves, earnings fades
Previous‑Day RTH Solid teal gap‑fill targets, trend continuation filters
(All colors, thicknesses and transparencies are editable in the settings.)
✨ Features
Real‑Time Updates
Levels refresh tick‑by‑tick inside their own session—no repainting later.
One‑Click Visibility Toggles
Show or hide any session extreme independently.
Clean Auto‑Labels
Optional right‑edge tags (“RTH High”, “Premkt Low”, etc.) keep your chart readable even when lines overlap.
Automatic Daily Reset
At midnight Eastern, buffers clear and yesterday’s extremes roll into the “Prev‑Day” pair.
Zero‑Noise Design
Transparencies and line styles are tuned so you can overlay on any symbol / timeframe without drowning candles.
📈 How to Trade with It
Intraday Breakout Strategy
Mark confluence (e.g., price pushes through Western Premkt High and Yesterday’s High).
Wait for a pullback that holds above the reclaimed band.
Enter with stop under that session line; target next band or measured‑move.
Fade / Mean‑Reversion
Pre‑market headline sends price 5 % above Early Premkt High.
Volume dries up before RTH open.
Short into exhaustion; cover near Western Premkt High or VWAP.
Gap‑Fill & Trend Days
Cash open gaps above Prev‑Day High.
If first 15‑min candle closes back inside yesterday’s range, bias shifts to downside fade.
If it holds above, treat gap as breakout and track RTH High extensions.
Pair it with volume‑profile, VWAP, or momentum oscillators for even higher‑confidence setups.

Global ETF Capital FlowsThe Global ETF Capital Flows indicator is designed as a research and monitoring tool for identifying capital allocation trends across major global exchange-traded funds (ETFs). It provides standardized fund flow data for regional equity markets (including the United States, Europe, Asia, and Emerging Markets), as well as alternative asset classes such as bonds and gold.
Fund flows into and out of ETFs are increasingly recognized as a leading indicator of investor behavior, particularly in the context of tactical asset allocation and risk appetite (Ben-David et al., 2017). By tracking aggregated ETF flows, the script enables the user to detect shifts in global investment preferences, which may precede price action and influence broader macro trends (Bank of International Settlements, 2018). For example, consistent inflows into U.S. large-cap ETFs such as SPY or QQQ may signal heightened investor confidence in domestic equities, whereas rising flows into bond ETFs such as TLT may suggest a flight to safety or expectations of declining interest rates (Israeli et al., 2017).
The visualization aspect of the script uses standardized z-scores to represent cumulative flows over a specified period. This normalization allows users to compare fund flows across regions and asset classes on a relative basis, filtering out scale differences and allowing for more effective cross-market analysis. According to Coates and Herbert (2008), normalization techniques such as z-scores are crucial in behavioral finance research, as they help detect anomalies and emotional extremes in investor activity.
Practically, this indicator is suited for top-down macro analysis, sector rotation strategies, and confirmation of technical signals. For instance, significant positive deviations in the standardized flow data for European ETFs may support a bullish bias on regional equities, especially if corroborated by technical breakouts or improving economic indicators. Conversely, elevated inflows into gold ETFs may be interpreted as hedging behavior against geopolitical uncertainty or inflationary pressure, consistent with historical patterns of gold’s role as a safe haven (Baur and Lucey, 2010).
Additionally, the tool allows for visual alerts when flow anomalies exceed a user-defined threshold, thereby supporting more responsive and data-driven decision-making. This feature aligns with findings from the CFA Institute (2019), which emphasize the growing importance of alternative data and automated alert systems in modern portfolio management.
From a research perspective, the indicator facilitates empirical study into capital mobility, intermarket relationships, and ETF investor psychology. It offers real-time monitoring of region-specific investment flows, thus serving as a proxy for investor conviction, liquidity trends, and cross-border risk-on/risk-off sentiment. Several recent studies have demonstrated the predictive power of ETF flows on future returns and volatility, particularly during periods of market stress or structural dislocations (Madhavan, 2016; Pan and Zeng, 2019).
