Advanced Volatility-Adjusted Momentum IndexAdvanced Volatility-Adjusted Momentum Index (AVAMI)
The AVAMI is a powerful and versatile trading index which enhances the traditional momentum readings by introducing a volatility adjustment. This results in a more nuanced interpretation of market momentum, considering not only the rate of price changes but also the inherent volatility of the asset.
Settings and Parameters:
Momentum Length: This parameter sets the number of periods used to calculate the momentum, which is essentially the rate of change of the asset's price. A shorter length value means the momentum calculation will be more sensitive to recent price changes. Conversely, a longer length will yield a smoother and more stabilized momentum value, thereby reducing the impact of short-term price fluctuations.
Volatility Length: This parameter is responsible for determining the number of periods to be considered in the calculation of standard deviation of returns, which acts as the volatility measure. A shorter length will result in a more reactive volatility measure, while a longer length will produce a more stable, but less sensitive measure of volatility.
Smoothing Length: This parameter sets the number of periods used to apply a moving average smoothing to the AVAMI and its signal line. The purpose of this is to minimize the impact of volatile periods and to make the indicator's lines smoother and easier to interpret.
Lookback Period for Scaling: This is the number of periods used when rescaling the AVAMI values. The rescaling process is necessary to ensure that the AVAMI values remain within a consistent and interpretable range over time.
Overbought and Oversold Levels: These levels are thresholds at which the asset is considered overbought (potentially overvalued) or oversold (potentially undervalued), respectively. For instance, if the AVAMI exceeds the overbought level, traders may consider it as a possible selling opportunity, anticipating a price correction. Conversely, if the AVAMI falls below the oversold level, it could be seen as a buying opportunity, with the expectation of a price bounce.
Mid Level: This level represents the middle ground between the overbought and oversold levels. Crossing the mid-level line from below can be perceived as an increasing bullish momentum, and vice versa.
Show Divergences and Hidden Divergences: These checkboxes give traders the option to display regular and hidden divergences between the AVAMI and the asset's price. Divergences are crucial market structures that often signal potential price reversals.
Index Logic:
The AVAMI index begins with the calculation of a simple rate of change momentum indicator. This raw momentum is then adjusted by the standard deviation of log returns, which acts as a measure of market volatility. This adjustment process ensures that the resulting momentum index encapsulates not only the speed of price changes but also the market's volatility context.
The raw AVAMI is then smoothed using a moving average, and a signal line is generated as an exponential moving average (EMA) of this smoothed AVAMI. This signal line serves as a trigger for potential trading signals when crossed by the AVAMI.
The script also includes an algorithm to identify 'fractals', which are distinct price patterns that often act as potential market reversal points. These fractals are utilized to spot both regular and hidden divergences between the asset's price and the AVAMI.
Application and Strategy Concepts:
The AVAMI is a versatile tool that can be integrated into various trading strategies. Traders can utilize the overbought and oversold levels to identify potential reversal points. The AVAMI crossing the mid-level line can signify a change in market momentum. Additionally, the identification of regular and hidden divergences can serve as potential trading signals:
Regular Divergence: This happens when the asset's price records a new high/low, but the AVAMI fails to follow suit, suggesting a possible trend reversal. For instance, if the asset's price forms a higher high but the AVAMI forms a lower high, it's a regular bearish divergence, indicating potential price downturn.
Hidden Divergence: This is observed when the price forms a lower high/higher low, but the AVAMI forms a higher high/lower low, suggesting the continuation of the prevailing trend. For example, if the price forms a lower low during a downtrend, but the AVAMI forms a higher low, it's a hidden bullish divergence, signaling the potential continuation of the downtrend.
As with any trading tool, the AVAMI should not be used in isolation but in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and within the context of a well-defined trading plan.

ICT HTF Liquidity Levels /w Alert [MsF]Japanese below / 日本語説明は英文の後にあります。
-------------------------
*This indicator is based on sbtnc's "HTF Liquidity Levels". It's a very cool indicator. thank you.
It has 3 functions: visualization of HTF liquidity (with alert), candle color change when displacement occurs, and MSB (market structure break) line display.
=== Function description ===
1. HTF liquidity (with alert)
Lines visualize the liquidity pools on the HTF bars. Alerts can be set for each TF's line.
Once the price reaches the line, the line is repaint.
To put it plainly, the old line disappears and a new line appears. The line that disappeared remains as a purged line. (It is also possible to hide the purged line with a parameter)
The alert will be triggered at the moment the line disappears. An alert will be issued when you touch the HTF's liquid pools where the loss is accumulated, so you can notice the stop hunting with the alert.
This alert is an original feature of this indicator.
The timeframe of the HTF can't modify. You can get Monthly, weekly, daily and H1 and H4.
Each timeframe displays the 3 most recent lines. By narrowing it down to 3, it is devised to make it easier to see visually. (This indicator original)
2. Displacement
Change the color display of the candlesticks when a bullish candle stick or bearish candle stick is attached. Furthermore, by enabling the "Require FVG" option, you can easily discover the FVG (Fair Value Gap). It is a very useful function for ICT trading.
3. MSB (market structure break)
Displays High/Low lines for the period specified by the parameter. It is useful for discovering BoS & CHoCH/MSS, which are important in ICT trading.

Ichimoku Cloud Indicator [TradingFinder] Kinko Hyo Cross Alerts🔵 Introduction
The Ichimoku Cloud (Ichimoku Kinko Hyo) is one of the most powerful and complete trading indicators in technical analysis. Originally developed by Japanese journalist Goichi Hosoda, the Ichimoku system combines multiple tools in one indicator, providing traders with instant insights into trend direction, support and resistance levels, and momentum. Unlike simple moving averages (SMA – Simple Moving Average), the Ichimoku Cloud (Kumo – Cloud) integrates dynamic elements that help traders forecast potential price action with greater clarity.
The Ichimoku Indicator (Ichimoku Signal System) is widely used across global markets, from Forex trading (FX – Foreign Exchange) to stocks, indices, and even cryptocurrencies. Its popularity comes from its ability to generate clear buy signals and sell signals based on the interaction of its components: Tenkan Sen (Conversion Line), Kijun Sen (Base Line), Senkou Span A, Senkou Span B, and Chikou Span (Lagging Line). When combined, these lines create the Ichimoku Cloud, which visually represents the balance between price action and market structure.
Ichimoku Cloud Lines Formulas :
Conversion Line (Tenkan Sen / Conversion Line) : Average of the highest high and lowest low over the past 9 periods => (9-PH + 9-PL) ÷ 2
Base Line (Kijun Sen / Base Line) : Average of the highest high and lowest low over the past 26 periods => (26-PH + 26-PL) ÷ 2
Leading Span A (Senkou Span A / Leading Span A) : Average of the Conversion Line and Base Line, plotted 26 periods ahead => (Tenkan Sen + Kijun Sen) ÷ 2
Leading Span B (Senkou Span B / Leading Span B) : Average of the highest high and lowest low over the past 52 periods, plotted 26 periods ahead => (52-PH + 52-PL) ÷ 2
Lagging Span (Chikou Span / Lagging Span) : Current closing price, plotted 26 periods behind.
One of the biggest advantages of the Ichimoku Trading Strategy (Ichimoku Cloud Trading System) is that it allows traders to identify the market condition at a glance. When the price is above the Kumo (Cloud), it indicates a bullish trend (uptrend). When the price is below the Kumo, the market is in a bearish trend (downtrend). And when the price is inside the cloud, the market is ranging (sideways trend). This simplicity and visual clarity make Ichimoku an essential indicator for both beginner traders and professional analysts.
The Ichimoku Cloud Indicator (Ichimoku Technical Analysis Tool) continues to be one of the most reliable charting methods. Traders often consider it superior to basic moving averages (MA – Moving Average) or exponential moving averages (EMA – Exponential Moving Average), because it not only shows trend direction but also highlights potential future support and resistance levels. With its unique combination of trend analysis, price forecasting, and trading signals, Ichimoku remains a core strategy in modern trading systems.
🔵 How to Use
The Ichimoku Cloud is more than just a set of lines; it’s a complete trading system that helps traders identify trends, momentum, and key support and resistance levels. By combining its five lines Conversion Line, Base Line, Leading Span A, Leading Span B, and Lagging Span traders can develop clear buy and sell strategies.
🟣 Identifying Trend Direction
Bullish Trend (Uptrend) : Price is above the cloud (Kumo), and the cloud is green. Leading Span A is above Leading Span B, signaling strong upward momentum.
Bearish Trend (Downtrend) : Price is below the cloud, and the cloud is red. Leading Span A is below Leading Span B, confirming a downward momentum.
Ranging / Sideways Market : Price is inside the cloud, indicating indecision and consolidation. Traders often avoid opening strong positions during these periods.
🟣 Buy Strategies
Conversion/Base Line Crossover : A buy signal occurs when the Conversion Line (Tenkan Sen) crosses above the Base Line (Kijun Sen). The signal is strongest when this crossover happens above the cloud.
Price Above Base Line : If the price moves above the Base Line while in an uptrend, it confirms bullish momentum and provides a favorable entry point.
Cloud Support Pullback : During a pullback in an uptrend, the price may touch or slightly enter the cloud. Traders can use the cloud as a dynamic support zone for buying opportunities.
Lagging Span Confirmation : Ensure the Lagging Span (Chikou Span) is above the price of 26 periods ago to confirm the strength of the bullish trend.
🟣 Sell Strategies
Conversion/Base Line Crossover : A sell signal is generated when the Conversion Line (Tenkan Sen) crosses below the Base Line (Kijun Sen). This signal is strongest when it occurs below the cloud.
Price Below Base Line : If the price falls below the Base Line in a downtrend, it confirms bearish momentum and strengthens the sell setup.
Cloud Resistance Pullback : During a bounce in a downtrend, the cloud acts as a resistance zone. Traders can enter sell positions when price approaches or touches the cloud from below.
Lagging Span Confirmation : The Lagging Span should be below the price of 26 periods ago, confirming downward momentum.
🟣 Cloud Breakout Signals
A strong buy occurs when the price breaks above the cloud from below, signaling a potential trend reversal.
A strong sell occurs when the price breaks below the cloud from above, indicating a shift toward a bearish trend.
🟣 Combining Signals for Stronger Entries
For higher probability trades, combine multiple signals : trend direction (cloud color and position), crossovers (Tenkan/Kijun), and Lagging Span position.
Avoid trading against the overall trend. For example, avoid buying when price is below a red cloud or selling when price is above a green cloud.
🔵 Setting
Tenkan Sen Period : Lookback period for Conversion Line (default: 9).
Kijun Sen Period : Lookback period for Base Line (default: 26).
Span B Period : Lookback period for Leading Span B, forms one Cloud boundary (default: 52).
Shift Lines : Periods forward for Cloud / backward for Lagging Span (default: 26).
Cross Tenkan/Kijun Alert : Alert on Conversion/Base Line crossover.
Cross Price/Tenkan Alert : Alert when price crosses Tenkan Sen.
Cross Price/Kijun Alert : Alert when price crosses Kijun Sen
🔵 Conclusion
The Ichimoku Cloud (Ichimoku Kinko Hyo) is much more than a simple indicator it is a complete trading system that combines trend detection, momentum analysis, and support/resistance identification in one view. By interpreting the position of price relative to the cloud, the interaction between Tenkan Sen (Conversion Line) and Kijun Sen (Base Line), the leading spans (Senkou Span A and B), and the Chikou Span (Lagging Line), traders can identify potential buy and sell opportunities with higher confidence.
The main advantage of the Ichimoku Cloud is its ability to provide a “one-look equilibrium” snapshot of the market. It highlights bullish trends when the price is above the cloud, bearish conditions when the price is below it, and indecision or transition when the price is inside the cloud. Crossovers, cloud breakouts, and confirmations by the Chikou Span strengthen the trading signals.
However, traders should keep in mind the limitations of the Ichimoku system. It is based on historical data and should not be used in isolation. Combining it with other tools such as RSI, volume analysis, or candlestick patterns can significantly improve accuracy and reduce false signals.
Franja de pre-mercadoThis indicator highlights the entire period from the end of the regular New York trading session through the overnight and pre-market, until the market reopens the next morning.
By default, the highlighted band starts at 16:30 New York time (15 minutes after the official close at 16:15) and continues without interruption through the night until 09:30 New York time, when the regular session begins.
🔹 Works for both futures and stocks (you can adjust the closing time if needed: 16:15 for futures, 16:00 for equities).
🔹 Option to include or exclude weekends.
🔹 Optional highlight for the last hour of RTH (e.g. 15:15–16:15 NY).
🔹 Fully customizable colors and offsets.
This tool helps traders clearly separate the overnight activity and pre-market moves from the main session, making it easier to analyze price action and market structure.
BayesStack RSI [CHE]BayesStack RSI — Stacked RSI with Bayesian outcome stats and gradient visualization
Summary
BayesStack RSI builds a four-length RSI stack and evaluates it with a simple Bayesian success model over a rolling window. It highlights bull and bear stack regimes, colors price with magnitude-based gradients, and reports per-regime counts, wins, and estimated win rate in a compact table. Signals seek to be more robust through explicit ordering tolerance, optional midline gating, and outcome evaluation that waits for events to mature by a fixed horizon. The design focuses on readable structure, conservative confirmation, and actionable context rather than raw oscillator flips.
Motivation: Why this design?
Classical RSI signals flip frequently in volatile phases and drift in calm regimes. Pure threshold rules often misclassify shallow pullbacks and stacked momentum phases. The core idea here is ordered, spaced RSI layers combined with outcome tracking. By requiring a consistent order with a tolerance and optionally gating by the midline, regime identification becomes clearer. A horizon-based maturation check and smoothed win-rate estimate provide pragmatic feedback about how often a given stack has recently worked.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline: Traditional single-length RSI with overbought and oversold rules or simple crossovers.
Architecture differences:
Four fixed RSI lengths with strict ordering and a spacing tolerance.
Optional requirement that all RSI values stay above or below the midline for bull or bear regimes.
Outcome evaluation after a fixed horizon, then rolling counts and a prior-smoothed win rate.
Dispersion measurement across the four RSIs with a percent-rank diagnostic.
Gradient coloring of candles and wicks driven by stack magnitude.
A last-bar statistics table with counts, wins, win rate, dispersion, and priors.
Practical effect: Charts emphasize sustained momentum alignment instead of single-length crosses. Users see when regimes start, how strong alignment is, and how that regime has recently performed for the chosen horizon.
How it works (technical)
The script computes RSI on four lengths and forms a “stack” when they are strictly ordered with at least the chosen tolerance between adjacent lengths. A bull stack requires a descending set from long to short with positive spacing. A bear stack requires the opposite. Optional gating further requires all RSI values to sit above or below the midline.
For evaluation, each detected stack is checked again after the horizon has fully elapsed. A bull event is a success if price is higher than it was at event time after the horizon has passed. A bear event succeeds if price is lower under the same rule. Rolling sums over the training window track counts and successes; a pair of priors stabilizes the win-rate estimate when sample sizes are small.
Dispersion across the four RSIs is measured and converted to a percent rank over a configurable window. Gradients for bars and wicks are normalized over a lookback, then shaped by gamma controls to emphasize strong regimes. A statistics table is created once and updated on the last bar to minimize overhead. Overlay markers and wick coloring are rendered to the price chart even though the indicator runs in a separate pane.
Parameter Guide
Source — Input series for RSI. Default: close. Tips: Use typical price or hlc3 for smoother behavior.
Overbought / Oversold — Guide levels for context. Defaults: seventy and thirty. Bounds: fifty to one hundred, zero to fifty. Tips: Narrow the band for faster feedback.
Stacking tolerance (epsilon) — Minimum spacing between adjacent RSIs to qualify as a stack. Default: zero point twenty-five RSI points. Trade-off: Higher values reduce false stacks but delay entries.
Horizon H — Bars ahead for outcome evaluation. Default: three. Trade-off: Longer horizons reduce noise but delay success attribution.
Rolling window — Lookback for counts and wins. Default: five hundred. Trade-off: Longer windows stabilize the win rate but adapt more slowly.
Alpha prior / Beta prior — Priors used to stabilize the win-rate estimate. Defaults: one and one. Trade-off: Larger priors reduce variance with sparse samples.
Show RSI 8/13/21/34 — Toggle raw RSI lines. Default: on.
Show consensus RSI — Weighted combination of the four RSIs. Default: on.
Show OB/OS zones — Draw overbought, oversold, and midline. Default: on.
Background regime — Pane background tint during bull or bear stacks. Default: on.
Overlay regime markers — Entry markers on price when a stack forms. Default: on.
Show statistics table — Last-bar table with counts, wins, win rate, dispersion, priors, and window. Default: on.
Bull requires all above fifty / Bear requires all below fifty — Midline gate. Defaults: both on. Trade-off: Stricter regimes, fewer but cleaner signals.
Enable gradient barcolor / wick coloring — Gradient visuals mapped to stack magnitude. Defaults: on. Trade-off: Clearer regime strength vs. extra rendering cost.
Collection period — Normalization window for gradients. Default: one hundred. Trade-off: Shorter values react faster but fluctuate more.
Gamma bars and shapes / Gamma plots — Curve shaping for gradients. Defaults: zero point seven and zero point eight. Trade-off: Higher values compress weak signals and emphasize strong ones.
Gradient and wick transparency — Visual opacity controls. Defaults: zero.
Up/Down colors (dark and neon) — Gradient endpoints. Defaults: green and red pairs.
Fallback neutral candles — Directional coloring when gradients are off. Default: off.
Show last candles — Limit for gradient squares rendering. Default: three hundred thirty-three.
Dispersion percent-rank length / High and Low thresholds — Window and cutoffs for dispersion diagnostics. Defaults: two hundred fifty, eighty, and twenty.
Table X/Y, Dark theme, Text size — Table anchor, theme, and typography. Defaults: right, top, dark, small.
Reading & Interpretation
RSI stack lines: Alignment and spacing convey regime quality. Wider spacing suggests stronger alignment.
Consensus RSI: A single line that summarizes the four lengths; use as a smoother reference.
Zones: Overbought, oversold, and midline provide context rather than standalone triggers.
Background tint: Indicates active bull or bear stack.
Markers: “Bull Stack Enter” or “Bear Stack Enter” appears when the stack first forms.
Gradients: Brighter tones suggest stronger stack magnitude; dull tones suggest weak alignment.
Table: Count and Wins show sample size and successes over the window. P(win) is a prior-stabilized estimate. Dispersion percent rank near the high threshold flags stretched alignment; near the low threshold flags tight clustering.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Enter only on new stack markers aligned with structure such as higher highs and higher lows for bull, or lower lows and lower highs for bear. Use the consensus RSI to avoid chasing into overbought or oversold extremes.
Exits and stops: Consider reducing exposure when dispersion percent rank reaches the high threshold or when the stack loses ordering. Use the table’s P(win) as a context check rather than a direct signal.
Multi-asset and multi-timeframe: Defaults travel well on liquid assets from intraday to daily. Combine with higher-timeframe structure or moving averages for regime confirmation. The script itself does not fetch higher-timeframe data.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint and confirmation: Stack markers evaluate on the live bar and can flip until close. Alert behavior follows TradingView settings. Outcome evaluation uses matured events and does not look into the future.
HTF and security: Not used. Repaint paths from higher-timeframe aggregation are avoided by design.
Resources: max bars back is two thousand. The script uses rolling sums, percent rank, gradient rendering, and a last-bar table update. Shapes and colored wicks add draw overhead.
Known limits: Lag can appear after sharp turns. Very small windows can overfit recent noise. P(win) is sensitive to sample size and priors. Dispersion normalization depends on the collection period.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with the shipped defaults.
Too many flips: Increase stacking tolerance, enable midline gates, or lengthen the collection period.
Too sluggish: Reduce stacking tolerance, shorten the collection period, or relax midline gates.
Sparse samples: Extend the rolling window or increase priors to stabilize P(win).
Visual overload: Disable gradient squares or wick coloring, or raise transparency.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a visualization and context layer for RSI stack regimes with simple outcome statistics. It is not a complete trading system, not predictive, and not a signal generator on its own. Use it with market structure, risk controls, and position management that fit your process.

CVD Divergences (cdikici71 x tncylyv)CVD Divergence
Summary
This indicator brings the powerful and creative divergence detection logic from @cdikici71's popular "cd_RSI_Divergence_Cx" script to the world of volume analysis.
While RSI is a fantastic momentum tool, I personally choose to rely on volume as a primary source of truth. This script was born from the desire to see how true buying and selling pressure—measured by Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)—diverges from price action. It takes the brilliant engine built by @cdikici71 and applies it to CVD, offering a unique look into market conviction.
What is Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)?
CVD is a running total of volume that transacted at the ask price (buying) minus volume that transacted at the bid price (selling). In simple terms, it shows whether buyers or sellers have been more aggressive over a period. A rising CVD suggests net buying pressure, while a falling CVD suggests net selling pressure.
Core Features
• Divergence Engine by @cdikici71: The script uses the exact same two powerful methods for finding divergences as the original RSI version:
o Alignment with HTF Sweep: The default, cleaner method for finding high-probability divergences.
o All: A more sensitive method that finds all possible divergences.
• Anchored CVD Periods: You can choose to reset the CVD calculation on a Daily, Weekly, or Monthly basis to analyze buying and selling pressure within specific periods. Or, you can leave it on Continuous to see the all-time flow.
• Automatic Higher Timeframe (HTF) Alignment: To remove the guesswork, the "Auto-Align HTF" option will automatically select a logical higher timeframe for divergence analysis based on your current chart (e.g., 15m chart uses 4H for divergence, 1H chart uses 1D, etc.). You can also turn this off for full manual control.
• Fully Customizable Information Table: An on-screen table keeps you updated on the divergence status. You can easily adjust its Position and Size in the settings to fit your chart layout.
• Built-in Alerts: Alerts are configured for both Bullish and Bearish divergences to notify you as soon as they occur.
How to Use This Indicator
The principle is the same as any divergence strategy, but with the conviction of volume behind it.
• 🔴 Bearish Divergence: Price makes a Higher High, but the CVD makes a Lower High or an equal high. This suggests that the buying pressure is weakening and may not be strong enough to support the new price high.
• 🟢 Bullish Divergence: Price makes a Lower Low, but the CVD makes a Higher Low or an equal low. This suggests that selling pressure is exhausting and the market may be ready for a reversal.
Always use divergence signals as a confluence with your own analysis, support/resistance levels, and market structure.
Huge Thanks and Credit
This script would not exist without the brilliant and creative work of @cdikici71. The entire divergence detection engine, the visualization style, and the core logic are based on his original masterpiece, "cd_RSI_Divergence_Cx". I have simply adapted his framework to a different data source.
If you find this indicator useful, please go and show your support for his original work!

Initial Balance SMC-V3
Initial Balance SMC-V3 – An Advanced Mean Reversion Indicator for Index Markets
The Initial Balance SMC-V3 indicator is the result of continuous refinement in mean reversion trading, with a specific focus on index markets (such as DAX, NASDAQ, S&P 500, etc.). Designed for high-liquidity environments with controlled volatility, it excels at precisely identifying value zones and statistical reversal points within market structure.
🔁 Mean Reversion at Its Core
At the heart of this indicator lies a robust mean reversion logic: rather than chasing extreme breakouts, it seeks returns toward equilibrium levels after impulsive moves. This makes it especially effective in ranging markets or corrective phases within broader trends—situations where many traders get caught in false breakouts.
🎯 Signals Require Breakout + Confirmation
Signals are never generated impulsively. Instead, they require a clear sequence of confirmations:
Break of a key level (e.g., Initial Balance high/low or an SMC zone);
Price re-entry into the range accompanied by a crossover of customizable moving averages (SMA, EMA, HULL, TEMA, etc.);
RSI filter to avoid entries in overbought/oversold extremes;
Volatility filter (ATR) to skip low-volatility, choppy conditions.
This multi-layered approach drastically reduces false signals and significantly improves trade quality.
📊 Built-in Multi-Timeframe Analysis
The indicator features native multi-timeframe logic:
H1 / 15-minute charts: for structural analysis and identification of Supply & Demand zones (SMC);
M1 / M5 charts: for precise trade execution, with targeted entries and dynamic risk management.
SMC zones are calculated on higher timeframes (e.g., 4H) to ensure structural reliability, while actual trade signals trigger on lower timeframes for maximum precision.
⚙️ Advanced Customization
Full choice of moving average type (SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, VWMA, HULL, TEMA, ZLEMA, etc.);
Revenge Trading logic: after a stop loss is hit without reaching the 1:1 breakeven level, the indicator automatically prepares for a counter-trade;
Dynamic ATR-based stop loss with customizable multiplier;
Session filters to trade only during optimal liquidity windows (e.g., European session).
🧠 Who Is It For?
This indicator is ideal for traders who:
Primarily trade indices;
Prefer mean reversion strategies over pure trend-following;
Seek a disciplined, rule-based system with multiple confluence filters;
Use a multi-timeframe approach to separate analysis from execution.
In short: Initial Balance SMC-V3 is more than just an indicator—it’s a complete trading framework for mean reversion on index markets, where every signal emerges from a confluence of statistical, structural, and temporal factors.
Happy trading! 📈

MTF Levels [OmegaTools]📖 Introduction
The Ω Levels Indicator is a complete market structure and level-mapping framework designed to help traders identify key zones where price is likely to react.
It blends classic technical anchors (VWAP, pivots, means, standard deviations) with modern statistical pattern recognition to dynamically project areas of manipulation, extension, and equilibrium.
At its core, Ω Levels creates an evolving map of market balance vs. imbalance, showing traders where liquidity is most likely to build and where price could pivot or accelerate.
But what makes it truly unique is the Pivot Forecaster — an embedded predictive engine that applies machine-learning inspired logic to recognize conditions that historically precede market turning points.
🔎 Key Features
Customizable Levels Framework
Define up to three levels (manipulation, extensions, VWAP, pivots, stdev bands, or prior extremes).
Choose mean references such as Open, VWAP, Pivot Mean, or Previous Session Mean.
Style controls (solid, dotted, dashed) and fill modes (internal, external, ranges) allow you to adapt the chart to your visual workflow.
Dynamic Zone Highlighting
Automatic fills between internal/external levels, or between specific level pairs (1–2, 1–3, 2–3).
Makes it easy to visualize value areas, expansions, and compression zones at a glance.
Multi-Timeframe Anchoring
Works on any timeframe, but calculations can be anchored to a higher timeframe (e.g., show daily VWAP & pivots on a 15m chart).
This allows traders to align intraday execution with higher timeframe context.
Pivot Forecaster (Machine Learning / Pattern Recognition)
This is the advanced predictive component.
The algorithm collects historical conditions observed around pivot highs and lows (volume state, ATR state, % candle expansion, oscillator conditions).
It then builds statistical “profiles” of typical pivot behavior and compares them in real-time against current market conditions.
When conditions match the “signature” of a pivot, the indicator highlights a Forecast Pivot High or Forecast Pivot Low (displayed as small diamond markers).
This functions as a pattern-recognition system, effectively learning from past pivots to anticipate where the next turning point is more likely to occur.
⚡ How Traders Can Use It
Intraday Execution: Use VWAP, manipulation, and extension levels to frame trades around liquidity zones.
Swing Context: Overlay higher timeframe pivots and means to guide medium-term positioning.
Fade Setups: Forecasted pivots often coincide with exhaustion zones where fading momentum carries edge.
Breakout Validation: When price breaks a structural level but the forecaster does not confirm a pivot, continuation probability is higher.
Risk Management: Levels provide natural stop/target placements, while pivot forecasts serve as warning signals for potential reversals.
⚙️ Settings Overview
Timeframe: Choose the anchor timeframe for calculations (default: Daily).
Means: Two selectable mean references (Open, VWAP, Pivot Point, Previous Mean).
Levels: Three levels can be customized (Manipulation, Extension, 1–2 StDev, Pivot Point, VWAP, Previous Extremes).
Fill Modes: Highlight zones between internal/external levels or custom ranges.
Visual Customization: Colors, line styles, fill opacity, and toggle for old levels.
Pivot Forecaster: Fully automated — no settings required, it adapts to instrument and timeframe.
🧭 Best Practices
Align Levels With Market Profile: Treat the levels as dynamic S/R zones and watch how price interacts with them.
Use Forecaster as Confirmation: The diamonds are not standalone signals; they are context filters that help you decide whether a move has higher reversal odds.
Higher Timeframe Anchoring: On intraday charts, set the timeframe to Daily or Weekly to trade with institutional levels.
Combine With ATR: Pair with the Ω ATR Indicator to size positions according to volatility while Ω Levels provides the structural roadmap.
📌 Summary
The Ω Levels Indicator is more than a level plotter — it’s a market map + predictive engine.
By combining traditional levels with an intelligent pivot forecaster, it gives traders both the static structure of where price should react, and the dynamic signal of where it is likely to react next.
This dual-layer approach — structural + predictive — makes it an invaluable tool for discretionary intraday traders, swing traders, and anyone who wants to anticipate price behavior instead of just reacting to it.

NY Anchored VWAP and Auto SMANY Anchored VWAP and Auto SMA
This script is a versatile trading indicator for the TradingView platform that combines two powerful components: a New York-anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) and a dynamic Simple Moving Average (SMA). Designed for traders who utilize VWAP for intraday trend analysis, this tool provides a clear visual representation of average price and volatility-adjusted moving averages, generating automated alerts for key crossover signals.
Indicator Components
1. NY Anchored VWAP
The VWAP is a crucial tool that represents the average price of a security adjusted for volume. This version is "anchored" to the start of the New York trading session, resetting at the beginning of each new session. This provides a clean, session-specific anchor point to gauge market sentiment and trend. The VWAP line changes color to reflect its slope:
Green: When the VWAP is trending upwards, indicating a bullish bias.
Red: When the VWAP is trending downwards, indicating a bearish bias.
2. Auto SMA
The Auto SMA is a moving average with a unique twist: its lookback period is not fixed. Instead, it dynamically adjusts based on market volatility. The script measures volatility using the Average True Range (ATR) and a Z-Score calculation.
When volatility is expanding, the SMA's length shortens, making it more sensitive to recent price changes.
When volatility is contracting, the SMA's length lengthens, smoothing out the price action to filter out noise.
This adaptive approach allows the SMA to react appropriately to different market conditions.
Suggested Trading Strategy
This indicator is particularly effective when used on a one-minute chart for identifying high-probability trade entries. The core of the strategy is to trade the crossover between the VWAP and the Auto SMA, with confirmation from a candle close.
The strategy works best when the entry signal aligns with the overall bias of the higher timeframe market structure. For example, if the daily or 4-hour chart is in an uptrend, you would look for bullish signals on the one-minute chart.
Bullish Entry Signal: A potential entry is signaled when the VWAP crosses above the Auto SMA, and is confirmed when the one-minute candle closes above both the VWAP and the SMA. This indicates a potential continuation of the bullish momentum.
Bearish Entry Signal: A potential entry is signaled when the VWAP crosses below the Auto SMA, and is confirmed when the one-minute candle closes below both the VWAP and the SMA. This indicates a potential continuation of the bearish momentum.
The built-in alerts for these crossovers allow you to receive notifications without having to constantly monitor the charts, ensuring you don't miss a potential setup.

ICT Structure Levels (ST/IT/LT) - v7 (by Jonas E)ICT Structure Levels (ST/IT/LT) – Neighbor-Wick Pivots
This indicator is designed for traders following ICT-style market structure analysis. It identifies Short-Term (ST), Intermediary (IT), and Long-Term (LT) swing highs and lows, but with a stricter filter that reduces false signals.
Unlike standard pivot indicators, this script requires not only that a bar makes a structural high/low, but also that the neighboring bars’ extremes are formed by wicks rather than flat-bodied candles. This wick condition helps confirm that the level is a true liquidity sweep and not just random price action.
How it works (conceptual):
Detects pivots based on user-defined left/right bars.
Validates that extremes on both sides of the pivot are wick-driven (high > body for highs, low < body for lows).
Marks valid STH/STL, ITH/ITL, and LTH/LTL directly on the chart with optional price labels.
Uses ATR offset for better label readability.
Alerts can be enabled to notify when a new structural level is confirmed.
How to use it:
Map market structure across multiple layers (ST/IT/LT).
Identify true liquidity grabs and avoid false highs/lows.
Integrate with Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) strategies.
Combine with other ICT concepts (Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, Liquidity Pools).
What makes it unique:
Most pivot indicators mark every high/low indiscriminately. This script filters pivots using wick validation, which significantly reduces noise and focuses only on the levels most relevant to liquidity-based trading strategies.
Changing of the GuardChanging of the Guard (COG) - Advanced Reversal Pattern Indicator
🎯 What It Does
The Changing of the Guard (COG) indicator identifies high-probability reversal setups by detecting specific candlestick patterns that occur at key institutional levels. This indicator combines traditional price action analysis with volume-weighted and moving average confluence to filter out noise and focus on the most reliable trading opportunities.
🔧 Key Features
Multi-Timeframe VWAP Analysis
• Daily VWAP (Gray circles) - Intraday institutional reference
• Weekly VWAP (Yellow circles) - Short-term institutional bias
• Monthly VWAP (Orange circles) - Long-term institutional sentiment
Triple EMA System
• EMA 20 (Blue) - Short-term trend direction
• EMA 50 (Purple) - Medium-term momentum
• EMA 200 (Navy) - Long-term market structure
Adaptive COG Pattern Detection
• 2-Bar Mode: Quick reversal signals for scalping
• 3-Bar Mode: Balanced approach for swing trading (default)
• 4-Bar Mode: Conservative signals for position trading
📊 How It Works
The indicator identifies "changing of the guard" moments when:
1. Pattern Formation: 2-4 consecutive bars show exhaustion in one direction
2. Reversal Confirmation: A counter-trend bar appears with strong momentum
3. Confluence Trigger: The reversal bar crosses through a significant VWAP or EMA level
Bullish COG: Green triangle appears below bars when bearish exhaustion meets bullish reversal at key support
Bearish COG: Red triangle appears above bars when bullish exhaustion meets bearish reversal at key resistance
💡 Trading Applications
Swing Trading: Use 3-bar mode with EMA 50/200 confluence for multi-day holds
Day Trading: Use 2-bar mode with Daily VWAP confluence for intraday reversals
Position Trading: Use 4-bar mode with Monthly VWAP confluence for major trend changes
⚙️ Customization Options
• Toggle VWAP display on/off
• Toggle EMA display on/off
• Toggle COG signals on/off
• Select detection mode (2-bar, 3-bar, 4-bar)
• Built-in alert system for automated notifications
🎨 Visual Design
Clean, professional interface with:
• Subtle dotted lines for VWAPs to avoid chart clutter
• Color-coded EMAs for easy trend identification
• Clear triangle signals that don't obstruct price action
• Customizable display options for different trading styles
📈 Best Practices
• Combine with volume analysis for additional confirmation
• Use higher timeframe bias to filter trade direction
• Consider market structure and support/resistance levels
• Backtest different modes to find optimal settings for your strategy
⚠️ Risk Management
This indicator identifies potential reversal points but should be used with proper risk management. Always consider:
• Overall market trend and structure
• Volume confirmation
• Multiple timeframe analysis
• Appropriate position sizing
Perfect for traders who want to catch reversals at institutional levels with high-probability setups. The confluence requirement ensures you're trading with the smart money, not against it.
Meta-LR ForecastThis indicator builds a forward-looking projection from the current bar by combining twelve time-compressed “mini forecasts.” Each forecast is a linear-regression-based outlook whose contribution is adaptively scaled by trend strength (via ADX) and normalized to each timeframe’s own volatility (via that timeframe’s ATR). The result is a 12-segment polyline that starts at the current price and extends one bar at a time into the future (1× through 12× the chart’s timeframe). Alongside the plotted path, the script computes two summary measures:
* Per-TF Bias% — a directional efficiency × R² score for each micro-forecast, expressed as a percent.
* Meta Bias% — the same score, but applied to the final, accumulated 12-step path. It summarizes how coherent and directional the combined projection is.
This tool is an indicator, not a strategy. It does not place orders. Nothing here is trade advice; it is a visual, quantitative framework to help you assess directional bias and trend context across a ladder of timeframe multiples.
The core engine fits a simple least-squares line on a normalized price series for each small forecast horizon and extrapolates one bar forward. That “trend” forecast is paired with its mirror, an “anti-trend” forecast, constructed around the current normalized price. The model then blends between these two wings according to current trend strength as measured by ADX.
ADX is transformed into a weight (w) in using an adaptive band centered on the rolling mean (μ) with width derived from the standard deviation (σ) of ADX over a configurable lookback. When ADX is deeply below the lower band, the weight approaches -1, favoring anti-trend behavior. Inside the flat band, the weight is near zero, producing neutral behavior. Clearly above the upper band, the weight approaches +1, favoring a trend-following stance. The transitions between these regions are linear so the regime shift is smooth rather than abrupt.
You can shape how quickly the model commits to either wing using two exponents. One exponent controls how aggressively positive weights lean into the trend forecast; the other controls how aggressively negative weights lean into the anti-trend forecast. Raising these exponents makes the response more gradual; lowering them makes the shift more decisive. An optional switch can force full anti-trend behavior when ADX registers a deep-low condition far below the lower tail, if you prefer a categorical stance in very flat markets.
A key design choice is volatility normalization. Every micro-forecast is computed in ATR units of its own timeframe. The script fetches that timeframe’s ATR inside each security call and converts normalized outputs back to price with that exact ATR. This avoids scaling higher-timeframe effects by the chart ATR or by square-root time approximations. Using “ATR-true” for each timeframe keeps the cross-timeframe accumulation consistent and dimensionally correct.
Bias% is defined as directional efficiency multiplied by R², expressed as a percent. Directional efficiency captures how much net progress occurred relative to the total path length; R² captures how well the path aligns with a straight line. If price meanders without net progress, efficiency drops; if the variation is well-explained by a line, R² rises. Multiplying the two penalizes choppy, low-signal paths and rewards sustained, coherent motion.
The forward path is built by converting each per-timeframe Bias% into a small ATR-sized delta, then cumulatively adding those deltas to form a 12-step projection. This produces a polyline anchored at the current close and stepping forward one bar per timeframe multiple. Segment color flips by slope, allowing a quick read of the path’s direction and inflection.
Inputs you can tune include:
* Max Regression Length. Upper bound for each micro-forecast’s regression window. Larger values smooth the trend estimate at the cost of responsiveness; smaller values react faster but can add noise.
* Price Source. The price series analyzed (for example, close or typical price).
* ADX Length. Period used for the DMI/ADX calculation.
* ATR Length (normalization). Window used for ATR; this is applied per timeframe inside each security call.
* Band Lookback (for μ, σ). Lookback used to compute the adaptive ADX band statistics. Larger values stabilize the band; smaller values react more quickly.
* Flat half-width (σ). Width of the neutral band on both sides of μ. Wider flats spend more time neutral; narrower flats switch regimes more readily.
* Tail width beyond flat (σ). Distance from the flat band edge to the extreme trend/anti-trend zone. Larger tails create a longer ramp; smaller tails reach extremes sooner.
* Polyline Width. Visual thickness of the plotted segments.
* Negative Wing Aggression (anti-trend). Exponent shaping for negative weights; higher values soften the tilt into mean reversion.
* Positive Wing Aggression (trend). Exponent shaping for positive weights; lower values make trend commitment stronger and sooner.
* Force FULL Anti-Trend at Deep-Low ADX. Optional hard switch for extremely low ADX conditions.
On the chart you will see:
* A 12-segment forward polyline starting from the current close to bar\_index + 1 … +12, with green segments for up-steps and red for down-steps.
* A small label at the latest bar showing Meta Bias% when available, or “n/a” when insufficient data exists.
Interpreting the readouts:
* Trend-following contexts are characterized by ADX above the adaptive upper band, pushing w toward +1. The blended forecast leans toward the regression extrapolation. A strongly positive Meta Bias% in this environment suggests directional alignment across the ladder of timeframes.
* Mean-reversion contexts occur when ADX is well below the lower tail, pushing w toward -1 (or forcing anti-trend if enabled). After a sharp advance, a negative Meta Bias% may indicate the model projects pullback tendencies.
* Neutral contexts occur when ADX sits inside the flat band; w is near zero, the blended forecast remains close to current price, and Meta Bias% tends to hover near zero.
These are analytical cues, not rules. Always corroborate with your broader process, including market structure, time-of-day behavior, liquidity conditions, and risk limits.
Practical usage patterns include:
* Momentum confirmation. Combine a rising Meta Bias% with higher-timeframe structure (such as higher highs and higher lows) to validate continuation setups. Treat the 12th step’s distance as a coarse sense of potential room rather than as a target.
* Fade filtering. If you prefer fading extremes, require ADX to be near or below the lower ramp before acting on counter-moves, and avoid fades when ADX is decisively above the upper band.
* Position planning. Because per-step deltas are ATR-scaled, the path’s vertical extent can be mentally mapped to typical noise for the instrument, informing stop distance choices. The script itself does not compute orders or size.
* Multi-timeframe alignment. Each step corresponds to a clean multiple of your chart timeframe, so the polyline visualizes how successively larger windows bias price, all referenced to the current bar.
House-rules and repainting disclosures:
* Indicator, not strategy. The script does not execute, manage, or suggest orders. It displays computed paths and bias scores for analysis only.
* No performance claims. Past behavior of any measure, including Meta Bias%, does not guarantee future results. There are no assurances of profitability.
* Higher-timeframe updates. Values obtained via security for higher-timeframe series can update intrabar until the higher-timeframe bar closes. The forward path and Meta Bias% may change during formation of a higher-timeframe candle. If you need confirmed higher-timeframe inputs, consider reading the prior higher-timeframe value or acting only after the higher-timeframe close.
* Data sufficiency. The model requires enough history to compute ATR, ADX statistics, and regression windows. On very young charts or illiquid symbols, parts of the readout can be unavailable until sufficient data accumulates.
* Volatility regimes. ATR normalization helps compare across timeframes, but unusual volatility regimes can make the path look deceptively flat or exaggerated. Judge the vertical scale relative to your instrument’s typical ATR.
Tuning tips:
* Stability versus responsiveness. Increase Max Regression Length to steady the micro-forecasts but accept slower response. If you lower it, consider slightly increasing Band Lookback so regime boundaries are not too jumpy.
* Regime bands. Widen the flat half-width to spend more time neutral, which can reduce over-trading tendencies in chop. Shrink the tail width if you want the model to commit to extremes sooner, at the cost of more false swings.
* Wing shaping. If anti-trend behavior feels too abrupt at low ADX, raise the negative wing exponent. If you want trend bias to kick in more decisively at high ADX, lower the positive wing exponent. Small changes have large effects.
* Forced anti-trend. Enable the deep-low option only if you explicitly want a categorical “markets are flat, fade moves” policy. Many users prefer leaving it off to keep regime decisions continuous.
Troubleshooting:
* Nothing plots or the label shows “n/a.” Ensure the chart has enough history for the ADX band statistics, ATR, and the regression windows. Exotic or illiquid symbols with missing data may starve the higher-timeframe computations. Try a more liquid market or a higher timeframe.
* Path flickers or shifts during the bar. This is expected when any higher-timeframe input is still forming. Wait for the higher-timeframe close for fully confirmed behavior, or modify the code to read prior values from the higher timeframe.
* Polyline looks too flat or too steep. Check the chart’s vertical scale and recent ATR regime. Adjust Max Regression Length, the wing exponents, or the band widths to suit the instrument.
Integration ideas for manual workflows:
* Confluence checklist. Use Meta Bias% as one of several independent checks, alongside structure, session context, and event risk. Act only when multiple cues align.
* Stop and target thinking. Because deltas are ATR-scaled at each timeframe, benchmark your proposed stops and targets against the forward steps’ magnitude. Stops that are much tighter than the prevailing ATR often sit inside normal noise.
* Session context. Consider session hours and microstructure. The same ADX value can imply different tradeability in different sessions, particularly in index futures and FX.
This indicator deliberately avoids:
* Fixed thresholds for buy or sell decisions. Markets vary and fixed numbers invite overfitting. Decide what constitutes “high enough” Meta Bias% for your market and timeframe.
* Automatic risk sizing. Proper sizing depends on account parameters, instrument specifications, and personal risk tolerance. Keep that decision in your risk plan, not in a visual bias tool.
* Claims of edge. These measures summarize path geometry and trend context; they do not ensure a tradable edge on their own.
Summary of how to think about the output:
* The script builds a 12-step forward path by stacking linear-regression micro-forecasts across increasing multiples of the chart timeframe.
* Each micro-forecast is blended between trend and anti-trend using an adaptive ADX band with separate aggression controls for positive and negative regimes.
* All computations are done in ATR-true units for each timeframe before reconversion to price, ensuring dimensional consistency when accumulating steps.
* Bias% (per-timeframe and Meta) condenses directional efficiency and trend fidelity into a compact score.
* The output is designed to serve as an analytical overlay that helps assess whether conditions look trend-friendly, fade-friendly, or neutral, while acknowledging higher-timeframe update behavior and avoiding prescriptive trade rules.
Use this tool as one component within a disciplined process that includes independent confirmation, event awareness, and robust risk management.
