Major Lows OscillatorDescription
The Major Lows Oscillator is a custom technical indicator designed to identify significant low-price areas by normalizing the current closing price relative to recent lowest lows and highest highs. The oscillator calculates a normalized price percentage over a configurable lookback period, applies exponential moving averages for smoothing, and inverts the result to highlight potential market bottoms.
Calculation Details
Lowest Low Lookback : Finds the lowest low over a user-defined period (default 100 bars).
Highest High Lookback : Calculates the highest high over a short period (default 1 bar), providing a dynamic normalization range.
Normalization : Normalizes the current close within the range defined by the lowest low and highest high, scaled to 0-100.
Smoothing : Applies a 10-period EMA, inversion, and weighted smoothing combining the last valid value and current oscillator reading.
Final Output : Applies a final EMA (period 1) and inverts the oscillator (100 - value) to emphasize major lows.
Features
Customizable midline level for signal alerts (default 50).
Visual midline reference line.
Alerts trigger on oscillator crossing below midline for automated monitoring.
Usage
Useful for complementing existing setups or integration in algorithmic trading strategies.
Changing the input parameters opens new ways to leverage the asymmetric range concept, allowing adaptation to different market regimes and enhancing the oscillator’s sensitivity and utility.
Examples of input combinations and their potential purposes include:
Extremely Asymmetric Setting: Lowest Low Lookback = 200, Highest High Lookback = 1
Focuses on deep long-term lows contrasted with immediate highs, ideal for spotting strong oversold levels within an otherwise bullish short-term momentum.
Symmetric Lookbacks: Lowest Low Lookback = Highest High Lookback = 50
Balances the range equally, creating a normalized oscillator that treats recent lows and highs with the same weight — useful for markets with balanced volatility.
Short but Equal Lookbacks: Lowest Low Lookback = Highest High Lookback = 10
Highly sensitive to recent price swings, this setting can detect rapid shifts and is suited for intraday or very short-term trading.
Inverted Extreme: Lowest Low Lookback = 1, Highest High Lookback = 100
Highlights very recent lows against a long-term high range, possibly signaling quick dips in a generally overextended market.
Inputs
Midline Level : Threshold for alerts (default 50).
Lowest Low Lookback Period : Bars evaluated for lowest low (default 100).
Highest High Lookback Period : Bars evaluated for highest high (default 1).
Alerts
Configured to trigger once per bar close when the oscillator crosses below the midline level.

Candle Range % vs 8-Candle AvgCandle % Indicator – Measure Candle Strength by Range %
**Overview:**
The *Candle % Indicator* helps traders visually and analytically gauge the strength or significance of a price candle relative to its recent historical context. This is particularly useful for detecting breakout moves, volatility shifts, or overextended candles that may signal exhaustion.
**What It Does:**
* Calculates the **percentage range** of the current candle compared to the **average range of the past N candles**.
* Highlights candles that exceed a user-defined threshold (e.g., 150% of the average range).
* Useful for **filtering out extreme candles** that might represent anomalies or unsustainable moves.
* Can be combined with other strategies (like EMA crossovers, support/resistance breaks, etc.) to improve signal quality.
**Use Case Examples:**
***Filter out fakeouts** in breakout strategies by ignoring candles that are overly large and may revert.
***Volatility control**: Avoid entries when market conditions are erratic.
**Confluence**: Combine with EMA or RSI signals for refined entries.
**How to Read:**
* If a candle is larger than the average range by more than the set percentage (default 150%), it's flagged (e.g., no entry signal or optional visual marker).
* Ideal for intraday, swing, or algorithmic trading setups.
**Customizable Inputs:**
**Lookback Period**: Number of previous candles to calculate the average range.
**% Threshold**: Maximum percentage a candle can exceed the average before being filtered or marked.
Math by Thomas Swing RangeMath by Thomas Swing Range is a simple yet powerful tool designed to visually highlight key swing levels in the market based on a user-defined lookback period. It identifies the highest high, lowest low, and calculates the midpoint between them — creating a clear range for swing trading strategies.
These levels can help traders:
Spot potential support and resistance zones
Analyze price rejection near range boundaries
Frame mean-reversion or breakout setups
The indicator continuously updates and extends these lines into the future, making it easier to plan and manage trades with visual clarity.
🛠️ How to Use
Add to Chart:
Apply the indicator on any timeframe and asset (works best on higher timeframes like 1H, 4H, or Daily).
Configure Parameters:
Lookback Period: Number of candles used to detect the highest high and lowest low. Default is 20.
Extend Lines by N Bars: Number of future bars the levels should be projected to the right.
Interpret Lines:
🔴 Red Line: Swing High (Resistance)
🟢 Green Line: Swing Low (Support)
🔵 Blue Line: Midpoint (Mean level — useful for equilibrium-based strategies)
Trade Ideas:
Bounce trades from swing high/low zones.
Breakout confirmation if price closes strongly outside the range.
Reversion trades if price moves toward the midpoint after extreme moves.
15-Min Opening Range Breakout STEP-BY-STEP RULES
1. Define the Opening Range (OR)
Mark the high and low of the first 15-minute candle of the session.
This creates your Opening Range.
Example: London session opens at 08:00 GMT. Use the 08:00–08:15 candle.
2. Set Entry Triggers
Buy Breakout: Place a Buy Stop order 1 pip above the Opening Range high.
Sell Breakout: Place a Sell Stop order 1 pip below the Opening Range low.
⚠️ Only one side should be triggered. Cancel the opposite order once one is active.
3. Set Stop Loss (SL)
For Buy trades:
SL = Opening Range Low - 2 pips
For Sell trades:
SL = Opening Range High + 2 pips
This ensures you give the price enough space, while keeping risk controlled.
4. Set Take Profit (TP)
Use either of these two approaches:
✅ Fixed Risk-Reward (Preferred)
Target 1: TP = 2R (i.e., 2 × SL distance)
Target 2 (optional): Leave runner for 3R or trail stop behind minor S/R
✅ Fixed Pip Target (alternative)
TP = +50 pips
SL = -20 pips
Matches your preferred risk model of 20 SL / 50 TP
5. Trade Management
If no breakout occurs within 1 hour, cancel the pending orders. No trade that day.
If trade triggers but fails to move, consider time-based exit after 2 hours.
Optional: Move SL to breakeven once price moves 1R in your favor.
Compression Patterns (w/ Trend + Proximity Filter)🧠 Description:
This indicator identifies high-probability price compression patterns within trending environments — a setup prized by experienced swing and day traders alike. It combines the classic NR4, NR7, 2-Bar NR, 3-Bar NR, and Inside Day formations with a powerful trend filter and proximity logic to deliver clear, focused signals.
🔍 What's Inside:
▪️ Compression Patterns
The core of this tool lies in the logic of price compression. These patterns signal the market taking a breath — volatility contracts, volume dries up, and price coils like a spring.
When this happens in the right context, the next move is often explosive.
NR4 / NR7: Narrowest range in 4 or 7 bars — excellent for spotting the quiet before the storm.
2-Bar NR / 3-Bar NR: These identify the tightest consecutive 2 or 3-day ranges over the past 20 days — contextually rare and powerful.
Inside Day: A simple but highly effective consolidation pattern, especially when it clusters around key moving averages.
▪️ Trend Filter (EMA Stack)
You could say this is where most indicators fall apart — no context.
This one doesn’t make that mistake.
Signals only fire when the 10 EMA > 20 EMA > 50 EMA, and price is above the 20 EMA. That’s a strong, established uptrend — the only environment where breakouts are statistically favourable.
Why?
Because trend following works.
It may not give you fixed daily returns, but it’s the only strategy with theoretically infinite profit potential. You risk little, trade less, and position yourself for rare but massive moves. That’s the edge.
▪️ Proximity Filter (1 ATR to EMA)
We’ve added another layer of discipline. Signals only fire when price is:
Within 1 ATR of the 10 EMA (if price is above it), or
Within 1 ATR of the 20 EMA (if price is below the 10 EMA)
This ensures you’re not chasing. You’re waiting for tight, controlled pullbacks into dynamic support — exactly where institutions add size, not exit.
⚙️ Fully Customisable:
Toggle visibility of each pattern
Custom colours and transparency for label & background
Adjustable ATR length and multiplier
Change label text if needed (useful for translations or tweaks)
🎯 Ideal Use Case:
Swing trading off the daily chart
Day trading with VWAP/MACD filters (in alternate versions)
Supplementing price action strategies
🔚 Final Word:
This isn’t an “everything scanner.”
It’s a discerning sniper scope for traders who wait patiently for clean trends, tight consolidations, and perfect proximity — then strike.
Body Percentage of Range (Colored)Short Description:
This indicator measures the dominance of the candle's body relative to its total range (High - Low), providing a visual gauge of intra-candle strength versus indecision. Columns are colored based on whether the body constitutes more or less than a defined percentage (default 50%) of the candle's total height.
Detailed Description:
What it Does:
The "Body Percentage of Range" indicator calculates, for each candle, what percentage of the total price range (High minus Low) is occupied by the candle's body (absolute difference between Open and Close).
A value of 100% means the candle has no wicks (a Marubozu), indicating strong conviction during that period.
A value of 0% means the candle has no body (a Doji), indicating perfect indecision.
Values in between show the relative balance between the directional move (body) and the price exploration/rejection (wicks).
How to Interpret:
The indicator plots this percentage as columns:
Column Height: Represents the percentage of the body relative to the total range. Higher columns indicate a larger body dominance.
Column Color:
Green Columns: Appear when the body percentage is above the user-defined threshold (default 50%). This suggests that the directional move within the candle was stronger than the indecision (wicks). Often seen during trending moves or strong momentum candles.
Red Columns: Appear when the body percentage is at or below the user-defined threshold (default 50%). This suggests that wicks dominate the candle (body is 50% or less of the range), indicating significant indecision, struggle between buyers and sellers, or potential reversals. These are common in choppy, consolidating, or reversal market conditions.
Orange Line (Optional MA): A Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the body percentages is plotted to help smooth the readings and identify broader periods where candle structure indicates more trending (high MA) vs. ranging/indecisive (low MA) characteristics.
Potential Use Cases:
Identifying Choppy vs. Trending Markets: Sustained periods of low, predominantly red columns (and often a low/declining MA) can signal a choppy, range-bound market where trend-following strategies might underperform. Conversely, periods with frequent high, green columns suggest a more trending environment.
Confirming Breakouts/Momentum: High green columns appearing alongside increased volume during a breakout can add conviction to the move's strength.
Spotting Potential Exhaustion/Reversals: A very tall green column after a strong trend, followed immediately by a low red column (like a Doji or Spinning Top pattern appearing on the price chart), might signal potential exhaustion or a pending reversal, indicating indecision has suddenly entered the market.
Filtering Entries: Traders might avoid taking entries (especially trend-following ones) when the indicator shows a consistent pattern of low red columns, suggesting high market indecision.
Settings:
Color Threshold %: Allows you to set the percentage level above which columns turn green (default is 50%).
Smoothing MA Length: Adjusts the lookback period for the Simple Moving Average.
Disclaimer:
This indicator is a tool for technical analysis and should be used in conjunction with other methods (like price action, volume analysis, other indicators) and robust risk management. It does not provide direct buy/sell signals and past performance is not indicative of future results.

PriceCatch - Previous Hour RangeHi Tradingview community,
Recently I stumbled upon a video on Youtube where the Youtuber was talking about Intraday trading based on 1 hour price range.
Anyone requesting the code was asked to contact over email for the code. So, I thought, this is such a simple script and has no special complex coding involved and why such a show off instead of just sharing it.
So, I decided to write the code myself and it took me under 10 minutes to do it. So, here's the PriceCatch - Previous Hour Range script. It is open source, so you can check it and apply it in your trading strategy.
Remember, this is just a simple range plotter and does not give any signals.
If you want 2 hours range, then simply change 60 to 120. Simple.
So, all the best with your trades.

Standard Deviation based Upper Lower RangeThis script makes use of historical data for finding the standard deviation on daily returns. Based on the mean and standard deviation, the upper and lower range for the stock is shown upto 2x standard deviation. These bounds can be treated as volatility range for the next n trading sessions. This volatility is based on historical data. Users can change the lookback historical period, and can also set the time period (days) for upcoming trading sessions.
This indicator can be useful in determining stoploss and target levels along with the traditional support/resistance levels. It can also be useful in option trading where one needs to determine a range beyond which it is safe to sell an option.
A range of 1 SD has around 65% to 68% probability that it will not be breached. A range of 2 SD has around 95% probability that it will not be breached.
The indicator is based on Normal distribution theory. In future editions, I envision to also calculate the skewness and kurtosis so that we can determine if a stock is properly following Normal Distribution theory. That may further favor the calculated range.

KillZones & Sessions [TradingFinder] Volume | Asia, London & NY🔵 Introduction
🟣 Session
The forex market operates 24 hours a day, 5 days a week, with only Saturdays and Sundays being off; traders often focus on one of the forex trading sessions instead of trying to trade in all markets 24 hours a day.
Trading sessions are time intervals during which a specific financial market is active and trades are conducted. The Asia, London, and New York sessions are the most important trading sessions throughout the 24-hour period, during which a significant amount of money and liquidity enters the market.
🟣 Kill Zone
Traders in financial markets profit from the difference between the price at which they buy or sell and the current market price. Traders have different time horizons for trading.
Among these, some traders engage in daily or even hourly trading and must operate during times when the market has desirable trading volumes and significant price movements.
Kill zones are segments of a session with higher trading volumes and price fluctuations compared to the rest of the session.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Session Time
The "Asia Session" consists of two sessions: "Sydney" and "Tokyo." The beginning of this session, according to the "UTC" time zone, is at 23:00 and ends at 06:00. Similarly, the beginning of the "Asia KillZone," according to the "UTC" time zone, is at 23:00, and it ends at 03:55.
The "London Session" consists of two sessions: "Frankfurt" and "London." The beginning of this session, according to the "UTC" time zone, is at 07:00, and it ends at 14:25. Similarly, the beginning of the "London KillZone," according to the "UTC" time zone, is at 07:00, and it ends at 09:55.
The beginning of the "New York am" session, according to the "UTC" time zone, is at 14:30, and it ends at 19:25. Similarly, the beginning of the "New York am KillZone," according to the "UTC" time zone, is at 14:30, and it ends at 16:55.
The beginning of the "New York pm" session, according to the "UTC" time zone, is at 19:30, and it ends at 22:55. Similarly, the beginning of the "New York pm KillZone," according to the "UTC" time zone, is at 19:30, and it ends at 20:55.
Important : To prevent session overlap, the working hours of each session have slightly changed.
🔵 Features

10 Minute Futures Session Open RangeInspired by SamRecio's 30sec OR script.
The 10 minute Opening Range (OR) dynamically identifies and visualizes the opening range of a trading session within the first 10 minutes after the market opens at 9:30 AM EST, concluding at 4:00 PM EST, reflecting the typical trading hours for U.S. stock exchanges. This indicator is particularly useful for strategies that rely on the initial market momentum and direction established during the early moments of the trading session.
Upon activation, the indicator calculates the highest (orHigh) and lowest (orLow) price levels reached during the first 10 minutes of the trading session, marking these levels with green (for the high) and red (for the low) lines directly on the chart overlay. Additionally, it computes and plots a midpoint (midPoint) between these high and low levels, displayed as a blue line, offering a visual reference for the median of the opening range.
The calculations are reset daily to ensure the indicator accurately reflects the opening range for each new trading session. By doing so, it avoids carrying over data from previous days, maintaining relevance and precision for day traders and those utilizing short-term trading strategies. The indicator also incorporates timezone adjustments to align with the America/New_York timezone, ensuring that the opening range is accurately captured regardless of the user's local timezone.
This tool is invaluable for traders looking to capitalize on breakout or reversion strategies around the opening range, providing clear visual cues for significant price levels established at the start of the trading session. By focusing on the first 10 minutes of trading, it caters to a specific segment of the market that believes the initial movements can set the tone for the rest of the day's trading activity.
HL range by durgaThe script we've been working on is an indicator designed to display the high-low range of the last candlestick on a TradingView chart. It does so by plotting two lines: one for the high and another for the low of the last completed candlestick.
Additionally, the script includes a label that shows the numerical value of the high-low range. This label is positioned between the plotted lines, showing the difference between the high and low prices of the last candlestick.
The script operates in real-time, updating dynamically as new candlesticks form. Furthermore, it automatically removes the label after the close of the candlestick, maintaining a clean and clutter-free chart.
This indicator can help traders quickly visualize and assess the range of the last completed candlestick, aiding in their analysis of price action.
Average True Range Level█ Overview
The indicator uses color-coded columns to represent different levels of normalized ATR, helping traders identify periods of high or low volatility.
█ Calculations
The normalization process involves dividing the current True Range by the Average True Range. The formula for normalized ATR in the code is:
nAtr = nz(barRange/atr)
█ How To Use
Level < 1
During periods when the normalized ATR is less than 1, suggesting a lower level of volatility, traders may explore inside bar strategies. These strategies focus on trading within the range of the previous bar, aiming to capitalize on potential breakout opportunities.
Level between 1 and 3
In instances where the normalized ATR falls between 1 and 3, indicating moderate volatility, a pullback strategy may be considered. Traders look for temporary corrections against the prevailing trend, entering positions in anticipation of the trend's resumption
Level between 2 and 3
Within the range of normalized ATR between 2 and 3, signifying a balanced level of volatility, traders might explore breakout strategies. These strategies involve identifying potential breakout levels using support and resistance or other indicators and entering trades in the direction of the breakout.
Level > 3
When the normalized ATR exceeds 3, signaling high volatility, traders should approach with caution. While not ideal for typical mean reversion strategies, this condition may indicate that the price has become overextended. Traders might wait for subsequent candles, observing a normalized ATR between 2 and 3, to consider mean reversion opportunities after potential overpricing during the high volatility period.
* Note: These strategies are suggestions and may not be suitable for all trading scenarios. Traders should exercise discretion, conduct their own analysis, and adapt strategies based on individual preferences and risk tolerance.
Bar Magnified Volume Profile/Fixed Range [ChartPrime]This indicator draws a volume profile by utilizing data from the lower timeframe to get a more accurate representation of where volume occurred on a bar to bar basis. The indicator creates a price range, and then splits that price range into 100 grids by default. The indicator then drops down to the lower timeframe, approximately 16 times lower than the current timeframe being viewed on the chart, and then parses through all of the lower timeframe bars, and attributes the lower timeframe bar volume to all grids that it is touching. The volume is dispersed proportionally to the grids which it is touching by whatever percent of the candle is inside each grid. For example, if one of the lower timeframe bars is interacting with "2" of the grids in the profile, and 60% of the candle is inside of the top grid, 60% of the volume from said candle will be attributed to the grid.
To make all of this magic happen, this script utilizes a quadratic time complexity algorithm while parsing and attributing the volume to all of the grids. Due to this type of algorithm being used in the script, many of the user inputs have been limited to allow for simplicity, but also to prevent possible errors when executing loops. For the most part, all of the settings have been thoroughly tested and configured with the right amount of limitations to prevent these errors, but also still give the user a broad range of flexibility to adjust the script to their liking.
📗 SETTINGS
Lookback Period: The lookback period determines how many bars back the script will search for the "highest high" and the "lowest low" which will then be used to generate the grids in-between
Number Of Levels: This setting determines how many grids there will be within the volume profile/fixed range. This is personal preference, however it is capped at 100 to prevent time complexity issues
Profile Length: This setting allows you to stretch or thin the volume profile. A higher number will stretch it more, vise versa a smaller number will thin it further. This does not change the volume profiles results or values, only its visual appearance.
Profile Offset: This setting allows you to offset the profile to the left or right, in the event the user does not appreciate the positioning of the default location of the profile. A higher number will shift it to the right, vise versa a lower number will shift it to the left. This is personal preference and does not affect the results or values of the profile.
🧰 UTILITY
The volume profile/fixed range can be used in many ways. One of the most popular methods is to identify high volume areas on the chart to be used as trade entries or exits in the event of the price revisiting the high volume areas. Take this picture as an example. The image clearly demonstrates how the 2 highest areas of volume within this magnified volume profile also line up to great areas of support and resistance in the market.
Here are some other useful methods of using the volume profile/fixed range
Identify Key Support and Resistance Levels for Setups
Determine Logical Take Profits and Stop Losses
Calculate Initial R Multiplier
Identify Balanced vs Imbalanced Markets
Determine Strength of Trends
RAhul RAJ Out of Range Trade IndicatorThis indicator is for intraday with the basic logic that any script will always trade in its range.
So , if any script moves away from its range, it will try to come back to its normal range movement.
Suppose average movement of any share is 100 points, and share has moved more than 150 points there is high probability that it will move in opposite direction in order to have average movement of price of 100.
For Stocks please use average period as 15 days for index 30 days.
If share price(YELLOW LINE) moves away from higher or lower blue line, then with the help of volume confirmation a trade can be initiated in opposite direction.
Please note direction needs to be opposite of what has happened in the day.
for eg. upper blue line could be broken , in both situation i.e.. share price is rising or falling,
so if share price is rising and upper blue line is broken:
Bearsish trade can be initiated with the help of price action n volume .
if share price has falledn and upper blue is broken:
Bullish trade can be initiated with the help of volume n price action confirmation.

True Range Adjusted Exponential Moving Average [CC]The True Range Adjusted Exponential Moving Average was created by Vitali Apirine (Stocks and Commodities Jan 2023 pgs 22-27) and this is the latest indicator in his EMA variation series. He has been tweaking the traditional EMA formula using various methods and this indicator of course uses the True Range indicator. The way that this indicator works is that it uses a stochastic of the True Range vs its highest and lowest values over a fixed length to create a multiple which increases as the True Range rises to its highest level and decreases as the True Range falls. This in turn will adjust the Ema to rise or fall depending on the underlying True Range. As with all of my indicators, I have color coded it to turn green when it detects a buy signal or turn red when it detects a sell signal. Darker colors mean it is a very strong signal and let me know if you find any settings that work well overall vs the default settings.
Let me know if you would like me to publish any other scripts that you recommend!
True Range ScoreTrue Range Score:
This study transforms the price similar to how z-score works. Instead of using the standard deviation to divide the difference of the source and the mean to determine the sources deviation from the mean we use the true range. This results in a score that directly relates to what multiplier you would be using with the Keltner Channel. This is useful for many applications.
One is the fact that it shows you the momentum of the price and how strong the price movement is. This is also a great metric of volatility. With this you can make a smart Keltner channel by multiplying the mean by the average true range 75th percentile of this score. I in fact do this in my automatic Keltner channel script. I hope this script is useful for you. Thank you for checking this out.
