Support and ResistanceThis indicator, titled "Support and Resistance," is designed to identify and display key price levels based on volume and pivot points. It's a versatile tool that can be adapted for different market views and timeframes.
Key Features
Market View Options
The indicator offers three market view settings:
Short term
Standard
Long term
These settings affect the lookback periods used in calculations, allowing users to adjust the indicator's sensitivity to market movements.
Volume-Based Levels
The indicator calculates support and resistance levels using a rolling Point of Control (POC) derived from volume data. This approach helps identify price levels where the most trading activity has occurred.
Pivot Points
In addition to volume-based levels, the indicator incorporates pivot points to identify potential support and resistance areas.
Customizable Appearance
Users can adjust:
Number of lines to display (1-8)
Colors for support and resistance levels
Line thickness based on level importance
Calculation Methods
Rolling POC
The indicator uses a custom function f_rolling_poc to calculate the rolling Point of Control. This function analyzes volume distribution across price levels within a specified lookback period.
Pivot Points
Both standard and quick pivot points are calculated using the rolling POC as input, rather than traditional price data.
Level Importance
The indicator assigns importance to each level based on:
Number of touches (how often price has interacted with the level)
Duration (how long the level has been relevant)
This importance score determines the thickness of the displayed lines.
Unique Aspects
Dynamic Line Thickness: Lines become thicker when levels overlap, highlighting potentially stronger support/resistance areas.
Adaptive Coloring: The color of each line changes dynamically based on whether the current price is above or below the level, indicating whether it's acting as support or resistance.
Flexible Time Frames: The market view options allow the indicator to be easily adapted for different trading styles and timeframes.
Potential Uses
This indicator could be valuable for:
Identifying key price levels for entry and exit points
Recognizing potential breakout or breakdown levels
Understanding the strength of support and resistance based on line thickness
Adapting analysis to different market conditions and timeframes
Overall, this "Support and Resistance" indicator offers a sophisticated approach to identifying key price levels, combining volume analysis with pivot points and providing visual cues for level importance and current market position.
This Support and Resistance indicator is provided for informational and educational purposes only. It should not be considered as financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any security. The indicator's calculations are based on historical data and may not accurately predict future market movements. Trading decisions should be made after thorough research and consultation with a licensed financial advisor. The creator of this indicator is not responsible for any losses incurred from its use. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Use at your own risk.
Rising & Falling Window Signals [LuxAlgo]The Rising & Falling Window Signals indicator identifies Rising & Falling Window formations on the chart and manages them for use as support and resistance zones. The Rising and Falling Window methods used in this indicator are based on Steve Nison's techniques, emphasizing the importance of these areas to better identify continuation momentum and likely reversal points.
Various filtering settings are included to identify zones of a specific width, as well as hide shorter zones from displaying on their chart, helping the users focus on the most significant zones.
🔶 USAGE
A Window (Rising or Falling) forms when the candle wicks from 2 consecutive candlesticks do not overlap, causing a gap. This gap is considered as a strong market sentiment of upward or downward movement, allowing traders to anticipate the likely direction of future prices.
The formation of a Rising Window is a typical indication that a bullish trend is likely to follow.
The formation of a Falling Window is a typical indication that a bearish trend is likely to follow.
After forming a window, we can interpret the zone as a likely area of support and resistance for the price to return to and react from.
Generally, the extremities of the window are used as support and resistance levels, with opposite extremities being regarded as the strongest point of support/resistance. However, when the window is exceptionally wide, the mid-point is looked upon as the strongest point of support/resistance. Once the price closes beyond the window, the window is no longer seen as supportive.
🔶 DETAILS
The script uses a fairly simple concept and implements it with familiar size and mitigation checks. From the settings of this script, the zones can be controlled based on user preferences.
🔹 Horizontal Zone Control
Horizontal Control Settings manipulate the extension and zone display for each zone; however, these settings do not affect the identification of each zone.
Maximum Live Zone Length: This determines the maximum duration of a zone. Zones will stop extending once the zone is mitigated, or if it has reached the maximum zone length determined by this setting.
Minimum Inactive Zone Length: This will hide mitigated (inactive) zones that are shorter than this setting value, this is used to free up the chart from irrelevant zones.
Extend Historical Zones on Touch: If a zone is unmitigated, but has stopped extending, it is considered a "historical" zone. If the price returns to a historical zone, this setting will cause it to extend to the current bar.
🔹 Vertical Zone Control
Vertical Control Settings filter out windows that are wider or thinner than the desired width range. Each of these settings is specified as "ATR Multipliers".
Minimum Width: Filters out any zones whose width is lower than ATR * Minimum Width.
Maximum Width: Filters out any zones whose width is higher than ATR * Maximum Width.
🔹 Signal Types
Signals are used to identify interactions with the Rising & Falling Window zones. The script has 3 different identification types to choose from:
Note: These are all bullish (rising window) examples of each signal.
Regular: The "regular" signal will fire when the price crosses above the upper extremity of an unmitigated zone.
Engulfing: The "engulfing" signal will fire when a bullish engulfing candlestick pattern occurs while one or more of the candle's wicks are touching the zone.
Wick: The "wick" signal will fire when the low of the candle is below the top of a zone, but the candle then closes above the top of the zone.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Horizontal Zone Control
Maximum Live Zone Length: Maximum duration of newly formed zones.
Minimum Inactive Zone Length: Hides Zones whose length is lower than this setting.
Extend Historical Zones on Touch: Extend historical unmitigated zones when the price reaches the zone to the current bar.
🔹 Vertical Zone Control
Minimum Width: ATR multiplier used to filter out any zones whose width is lower than ATR * Minimum Width.
Maximum Width: ATR multiplier used to filter out any zones whose width is higher than ATR * Maximum Width.
Show Midlines: Determine if the zone midlines are displayed.
🔹 Signals
Show Zone Tests: Determine if signals appearing on zone tests are displayed.
Test Type: Sets the signal method for zone tests.
Signal Size: Sets label size for displayed signals.
ICT Market Structure Screener (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The ICT Market Structure Screener (Zeiierman) is designed to identify and display key market structure levels and patterns based on Smart Money Concepts. It highlights bullish and bearish structures, premium and discount levels, and generates alerts for significant market structure changes, making it a valuable tool for traders looking to understand institutional trading behaviors and market trends. A key feature of this indicator is its screener function, which allows traders to monitor multiple symbols simultaneously. This feature provides a consolidated view of the market structure for various assets, making it easier to identify trading opportunities across a diverse portfolio.
█ How It Works
The ICT Market Structure Screener operates by identifying high and low pivot points within a specified period, then analyzing these pivots to determine changes in market structure. The indicator tracks price movements and categorizes them into bullish or bearish structures, indicating potential trend reversals or continuations. By plotting premium and discount levels, it helps traders identify overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator also provides real-time updates and alerts for significant changes in the market structure.
█ Terminology
ChoCH (Change of Character): Indicates a potential reversal in market direction. It is identified when the price breaks a significant high or low, suggesting a shift from a bullish to bearish trend or vice versa.
SMS (Smart Money Shift): Represents the transition phase in market structure where smart money begins accumulating or distributing assets. It typically follows a BMS and indicates the start of a new trend.
BMS (Bullish/Bearish Market Structure): Confirms the trend direction. Bullish Market Structure (BMS) confirms an uptrend, while Bearish Market Structure (BMS) confirms a downtrend. It is characterized by a series of higher highs and higher lows (bullish) or lower highs and lower lows (bearish).
Premium: A zone where the price is considered overbought. It is calculated as the upper range of the current market structure and indicates a potential area for selling or shorting.
Mid Range: The midpoint between the high and low of the market structure. It often acts as a support or resistance level, helping traders identify potential reversal or continuation points.
Discount: A zone where the price is considered oversold. It is calculated as the lower range of the current market structure and indicates a potential area for buying or going long.
█ How to Use
The ICT Market Structure Screener allows traders to follow smart money moves in the market more effectively. By identifying key market levels and monitoring bullish and bearish structures, traders can easily spot trend changes and strong trends. The indicator's premium and discount levels help identify overbought and oversold conditions, providing valuable entry and exit points. Alerts for ChoCH, SMS, and BMS keep traders informed about significant market changes, enabling real-time adjustments to trading strategies.
The screener functionality is particularly valuable for monitoring multiple markets simultaneously. The screener table displays critical information such as current price, trend direction, signal type, and premium/discount levels for each symbol. This makes it easier to track the market structure of various assets at a glance and quickly identify trading opportunities across different markets.
Example Strategies:
⚪ Trend Following: Use the indicator to identify the current market trend (bullish or bearish) and trade in the direction of the trend. Enter trades on pullbacks to premium (for shorts) or discount (for longs) levels.
⚪ Reversal Trading: Look for ChoCH signals to identify potential trend reversals. Enter trades when the price breaks a significant high or low and confirms a change in market structure, or wait for a retest of the nearest Orderblock that was formed.
⚪ Support and Resistance: Utilize the mid-range, premium, and discount levels as support and resistance zones. Enter trades when the price approaches these levels and shows signs of reversal or continuation.
⚪ Multi-Symbol Analysis: Use the screener table to monitor multiple symbols and quickly assess their market structure. This helps in diversifying trading opportunities and managing a portfolio of assets efficiently.
█ Settings
Period: The pivot period for calculating the structure. Increasing the period captures broader trends, making the structure more representative of long-term movements. Decreasing the period focuses on shorter-term trends, increasing sensitivity.
Response: Enabling this option uses the response period instead of the pivot period, providing more flexibility in capturing short-term or long-term structures. The period for the response, which determines the structure's sensitivity. Increasing the response period smoothens the structure, making it less reactive to short-term fluctuations. Decreasing the response period makes the structure more responsive to short-term changes.
Structure Display: Choose between displaying the active range or the previous range. 'Active Range' shows real-time premium, discount, and mid-range levels based on the current structure. 'Previous Range' displays past ranges, useful for analyzing historical support/resistance levels.
Ticker Symbols: List of symbols to include in the screener. Enabling the option includes the symbol in the screener, allowing the user to track its structure. Disabling it excludes the symbol from the screener, reducing the number of tracked symbols.

VWAP Bands [UAlgo]The "VWAP Bands " indicator is designed to provide traders with valuable insights into market trends and potential support/resistance levels using Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) bands. This indicator integrates the core concepts of VWAP with additional trend analysis features, making it a versatile tool for both range trading and trend-following strategies.
The VWAP bands are plotted based on the standard deviation multipliers, creating upper and lower bands around the VWAP. These bands serve as dynamic support and resistance levels. When the price approaches these bands, traders can anticipate potential reversals or continuations of the current trend. Additionally, the indicator provides visual cues for trend strength and potential trend changes, helping traders make informed decisions in various market conditions.
🔶 Settings
Source (Data Source): The data source for VWAP calculations. The default setting is the typical price (HLC3), which is the average of the high, low, and close prices.
Length: The number of bars used in the VWAP calculation. This determines the lookback period for the indicator.
Standard Deviation Multiplier: The multiplier applied to the standard deviation to create the primary upper and lower VWAP bands. This setting controls the distance of the bands from the VWAP.
Secondary Standard Deviation Multiplier: The multiplier applied to the standard deviation to create the secondary upper and lower VWAP bands, providing additional levels of support and resistance.
Display Trend: A toggle to enable or disable the display of the trend analysis feature. When enabled, the indicator highlights trend strength and potential trend changes.
Display Trend Crossovers: A toggle to enable or disable the display of trend crossover signals. When enabled, the indicator plots shapes to indicate where trend switches are likely occurring.
🔶 Calculations
The calculations behind the "VWAP Bands " indicator begin with determining the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), which provides a comprehensive view of the average price of an asset, weighted by trading volume. This gives a more accurate representation of the asset's true average price over a specified period.
The first step in this process involves summing the trading volume over a chosen period, typically represented by the length parameter. Simultaneously, the product of the price (usually an average of the high, low, and close prices) and the trading volume is calculated and summed. By dividing this cumulative price-volume product by the total volume, we obtain the VWAP value. This VWAP serves as the central anchor around which the price action oscillates.
To enhance the utility of VWAP, we introduce standard deviation calculations. Standard deviation measures the extent of price dispersion from the VWAP, providing insight into price volatility. By calculating the variance (which involves the squared deviations of price) and then taking its square root, we derive the standard deviation. This helps in understanding how far prices typically stray from the VWAP.
With the VWAP and standard deviation in hand, we then establish upper and lower bands by adding and subtracting multiples of the standard deviation from the VWAP. These bands act as dynamic support and resistance levels, adapting to changes in market volatility. The primary bands, set by the first standard deviation multiplier, are augmented by secondary bands defined by a larger multiplier, offering additional layers of potential support and resistance.
It also integrates trend analysis, highlighting areas where the price action suggests a strong or weak trend. This is achieved by overlaying colored zones above and below the bands, indicating the strength and direction of the trend. When the price crosses these bands, it signals potential trend changes, aiding traders in making timely decisions.
🔶 Disclaimer
The "VWAP Bands " indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It is not intended as financial advice and should not be construed as such.
Trading involves significant risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Before using this indicator or making any investment decisions, it is important to conduct thorough research and consider your financial situation.
MarketRangerThis indicator puts a selection of elements together providing traders with insights into price dynamics, trend changes, and potential trading opportunities within the specified timeframe.
Trading Range Defined by Support and Resistance :
Support and resistance levels are calculated using the lowest low and highest high over specified periods.
These
levels define the boundaries of the trading range within which the price moves.
WMA Color Changing based on Slope :
The script uses three Weighted Moving Averages (WMAs) with different lengths.
The color of the main WMA changes based on its slope.
When the slope of the WMA is positive (indicating an uptrend), it's displayed in blue. When it's
negative (indicating a downtrend), it's displayed in pink.
New High/Low Detection :
The script detects new highs and lows in the price action.
A new high is detected when the current high crosses under the previous resistance level, and a new low is detected when the current low crosses over the previous support level.
These
detections are marked by triangle shapes above or below the bars.
WMA Crosses :
The script calculates the difference between the two WMAs.
When the faster WMA crosses above the slower WMA, indicating a potential bullish signal, a blue cross shape is plotted below the bar.
When the faster WMA crosses below the slower WMA, indicating a potential bearish signal, a
pink cross shape is plotted above the bar.
Slope Changes :
The script calculates the slope of the main WMA and tracks changes in slope.
A positive slope indicates an upward trend, while a negative slope indicates a downward trend.
Slope changes from negative to positive indicate potential bullish momentum, and from
positive to negative indicate potential bearish momentum.
Customizable Pivot Levels :
Pivot levels are calculated based on user-defined percentages of the range between support and resistance.
Pivot Level 1 and Pivot Level 2 provide additional reference points for potential reversals or trend continuation.
Usage :
The indicator provides support and resistance levels, new high/low alerts, and WMA crosses.
The midpoint and customizable pivot levels offer potential trading zones.
Slope change points indicate potential shifts in market sentiment.
Customize the pivot levels according to your trading strategy.
Parameters :
Adjust the WMA lengths and support/resistance lengths to suit your trading style.
Modify the visibility settings to control how many periods of support and resistance are displayed.
Customize the pivot levels to fit your preferred trading strategy.
Alerts :
Alerts are triggered for new high/low points and WMA crosses.
Use alerts to stay informed about potential trading opportunities.
Interpretation :
Watch for new high/low points for potential trend reversals or continuations.
Monitor WMA crosses and slope changes for signals of market direction.
Consider trading near support/resistance levels and pivot points.
Additional Notes :
Experiment with different settings to find the configuration that best suits your trading preferences.
Backtest the indicator on historical data to validate its effectiveness before using it in live trading.
Map exampleUsing Maps collections:
This code manipulates support and resistance lines using maps collection.
We normally maintain array/udt of lines and related properties to segregate lines as support and or resistance.
With introduction of maps the same can be achieved without creating lines array/udt.
What does this code do:
1. Plot support and resistance lines based on ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow()
2. When price crosses support line, the line is marked as resistance and color is changed to resistance line color and style is changed to dotted line (support turned resistance). Also the width of the line is set based on number of crosses. Finally the support/resistance line is removed when number of times price crossing the line reaches max allowed crosses (input parameter)
Where maps are used:
1. map_sr_cross - Number of times the support/resistance lines has been crossed by price
2. map_sr_type - R=resistance, S=support
3. color_map - color for support and resistance lines
4. style_map - line styles. Support/resistance lines as solid style and support turned resistance/resistance turned support lines as dotted style.
Autodrawn Support and Resistance LevelsAutodrawn Support and Resistance Levels is an indicator that helps traders identify key support and resistance levels on a chart. These levels are important because they can help traders make decisions about when to buy or sell an asset. The indicator uses three lookback periods to identify recent highs and lows and then draws lines at the highest support and resistance levels for those periods. The lines are color-coded, with green indicating support and red showing resistance. The thickness of the lines can also be adjusted to match a trader's preferences. The lines are updated automatically as new data is added to the chart, making it easy for traders to identify new levels of support and resistance as they emerge. Overall, this indicator is a helpful tool for traders who want to quickly and easily identify critical levels on a chart to inform their trading decisions.
By having one lookback period on a medium-term timeframe (e.g. 50), a short-term timeframe (e.g. 10), and a long-term timeframe (e.g. 300), it can be easier to identify support and resistance levels that are relevant to the current market trend, and see multiple critical levels at once. This can help you make more informed decisions about when to enter and exit trades, as well as where to set stop-loss orders. It may be valuable to consider that as shorter-term and longer-term support/resistance levels become closer together, it is more likely for there to be a reversal in the opposite direction.
This indicator is less useful in markets that have strong trends, where the horizontal support and resistance levels are likely to be less useful than trend line support and resistance levels, however it works well in sideways trading markets

ICT Implied Fair Value Gap (IFVG) [LuxAlgo]An Implied Fair Value Gap (IFVG) is a three candles imbalance formation conceptualized by ICT that is based on detecting a larger candle body & then measuring the average between the two adjacent candle shadows.
This indicator automatically detects this imbalance formation on your charts and can be extended by a user set number of bars.
The IFVG average can also be extended until a new respective IFVG is detected, serving as a support/resistance line.
Alerts for the detection of bullish/bearish IFVG's are also included in this script.
🔶 SETTINGS
Shadow Threshold %: Threshold percentage used to filter out IFVG's with low adjacent candles shadows.
IFVG Extension: Number of bars used to extend highlighted IFVG's areas.
Extend Averages: Extend IFVG's averages up to a new detected respective IFVG.
🔶 USAGE
Users of this indicator can primarily find it useful for trading imbalances just as they would for trading regular Fair Value Gaps or other imbalances, which aims to highlight a disparity between supply & demand.
For trading a bullish IFVG, users can find this imbalance as an area where price is likely to fill or act as an area of support.
In the same way, a user could trade bearish IFVGs by seeing it as a potential area to be filled or act as resistance within a downtrend.
Users can also extend the IFVG averages and use them as longer-term support/resistances levels. This can highlight the ability of detected IFVG to provide longer term significant support and resistance levels.
🔶 DETAILS
Various methods have been proposed for the detection of regular FVG's, and as such it would not be uncommon to see various methods for the implied version.
We propose the following identification rules for the algorithmic detection of IFVG's:
🔹 Bullish
Central candle body is larger than the body of the adjacent candles.
Current price low is higher than high price two bars ago.
Current candle lower shadow makes up more than p percent of its total candle range.
Candle upper shadow two bars ago makes up more than p percent of its total candle range.
The average of the current candle lower shadow is greater than the average of the candle upper shadow two bars ago.
where p is the user set threshold.
🔹 Bearish
Central candle body is larger than the body of the adjacent candles.
Current price high is higher than low price two bars ago.
Current candle upper shadow makes up more than p percent of its total candle range.
Candle lower shadow two bars ago makes up more than p percent of its total candle range.
The average of the candle lower shadow 2 bars ago is greater than the average of the current candle higher shadow.
where p is the user set threshold.
🔶 SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL
You can see our previously posted script that detects various imbalances as well as regular Fair Value Gaps which have very similar usability to Implied Fair Value Gaps here:
Support & Resistance Trendlines with PP + Fib. Channel█ Support & Resistance Trendlines with Pivot Points + Fibonacci Channel
This script automatically draw support and resistance trend lines based on pivot points and add a fibonacci channel.
It will show potential patterns with the help of support and resistance lines as well as breakout target and pullback entry with the fibonacci extension and retracement levels.
It is based on atolelole's script, I only made it more configurable so please check out his script.
I added the possibility to change values and add additional retracement and extension levels.
I also made it customizable with the possibility to change lines color, width and style.
Pivot-Based Channels & Bands [Misu]█ This Indicator is based on Pivot detection to show bands and channels.
The pivot price is similar to a resistance or support level. If the pivot level is breached, the price should continue in that direction. Or the price could reverse at or near this level.
█ Usages:
Use channels as a support & resistance zone.
Use bands as a support & resistance zone. It is also very powerfull to use it as a breakout.
Use mid bands & mid channels as a trend direction or trade filter as a more usual moving average.
█ Parameters:
Show Pivot Bands: show bands.
Show Pivot Mid Band: show mid bands.
Show Pivot Channels: show channels.
Show Pivot Mid Channel: show mid channels.
Deviation: deviation used to calculate pivot points.

I Just mix them in one code.
This indicators are the best ones in tradingview to confirm Supports and Resistances.
it's a good way to help us to check the trend and gives an idea to get in or get out.
You can also use this together with the another indicators that i publish.
It's my setup today:
Volume-based S/R Levels
█ OVERVIEW
After my last indicator "Order Block Finder" was unexpectedly popular with the TradingView community, I decided to publish another experimental indicator which again tries to identify "areas of interest"
Idea:
Often candles with long wicks represent strong buying & selling pressure, especially when they are combined with extraordinary volume. Especially interesting to me are the lower wicks on red candles and the upper wicks of green candles. These wicks can potentially indicate "areas of interest" by the bigger players in the market and price may interact with these levels again in the future.
This indicator tries to identify these "high volume / long wick" candles and paints a line of either Support or Resistance from the wick into the future.
█ CALCULATION LOGIC
Extraordinary Volume is identified by first calculating thresholds based on a volume Moving Average and Standard Deviations. Two Standard Deviation Values are entered to identify HIGH and EXTREME threshold levels. The current volume is classified by comparing the volume against these thresholds.
The following inputs can be made:
- Volume MA Length
- Standard Deviation Length
- Threshold for HIGH Volume (Number of StdDev)
- Threshold for EXTREME Volume (Number of StdDev)
Another entry parameter can be used to specify the Minimum Wick Length (in % of the candle body value) which identifies a "relevant" candle. If this value is set to 0, then there is no limit and all high volume candles are considered.
The identified Support/Resistance levels are shown as lines on the chart. The parameter "Length of lines (hours)" can be used to set the length of the lines (always in hours). Depending on the timeframe, this needs to be adjusted.
(I know that this can be solved more elegantly in pine, but it was just not important to me. As always everyone is free to copy the code and make improvements. Just give me a mention when you do.)
█ DISPLAY OPTIONS
Different display options are available in the settings:
- Display Support/Resistance: Select if you want to see only Support or Resistance lines - or both
- Display High/Extreme Volume: Select if you only want to see the Extreme Value Candles or the High Value Candles or both
- Display WICK / WICK Range: Select if you only want one line at the extreme value (High/Low) of the wick - or if you want to see a range (three lines - one at the top, one at the bottom and one in the middle of the wick)
- Show Signal Triangles?: This gives the option to show little triangles on all the identified candles
█ DISCLAIMER
This is an experimental indicator and I do not know if my theory works in real life. So treat this not as financial advise, but purely for entertainment and educational purposes.
As mentioned above, I publish this code open so that everyone can re-use it or hopefully even improve it.
Let me know if you have any ideas for improvement and if it is within my coding capabilities (which to be honest are quite limited), I will try to accomodate it.
Have fun.
Solid Dynamic Corridors[AkmanBey]
Solid Dynamic Corridors: Technical Overview
The Solid Dynamic Corridors indicator is a sophisticated, multi-layered trend-following and volatility-channel system. Unlike standard indicators, it combines RSI-derived price projections, ATR-based volatility expansion, and a 20-level support/resistance matrix to identify high-probability trend zones.
1. RSI-Based Price Projection
The foundation of the indicator starts with an inverse calculation of RSI levels. By setting specific overbought (51) and oversold (49) thresholds, the script projects these momentum levels directly onto the price chart as dynamic bands. This allows the trader to see where the price would be if it reached those specific RSI exhaustion points.
2. The Multi-Layered Support & Resistance Matrix
The core strength of the script lies in its 20-level calculation engine. It computes 10 distinct resistance levels (H1-H10) and 10 distinct support levels (L1-L10) using a hybrid blend of:
* Exponential Moving Averages (EMA)
* Average True Range (ATR)
* Historical Extremes (High/Low Lookbacks)
* Price Action Ratios
These levels are then averaged to create the Final Resistance and Support Averages, providing a "solid" boundary that filters out market noise more effectively than a single moving average.
3. Volatility-Adjusted Dynamic Expansion
To adapt to changing market conditions, the indicator employs an ATR-based expansion mechanism. By applying a user-defined multiplier to the current ATR, the bands expand during high-volatility periods and contract during consolidation, ensuring the "Corridors" remain relevant regardless of market speed.
4. Trend Tracking & Persistence Logic
The system features a unique Signal Persistence logic. When a trend shift is detected (via an ATR-based trailing stop mechanism):
* Buy/Sell Signals: Triggered when the price breaks through the calculated trailing limits.
* Persistence Lines: Once a signal is generated, the indicator "locks" the support or resistance level at that moment and tracks it for an extended period (up to 19,999 bars). This helps traders identify long-term historical anchor points even after the immediate trend has passed.
5. Extreme Range Analysis (HH-LL)
Finally, the script calculates Extreme Upper and Lower Bounds based on the highest and lowest points of the signal tracking lines. This creates a "Master Range" that colors the chart dynamically, signaling whether the market is in a Red (Overextended High), Green (Overextended Low), or Blue (Neutral) state.
Summary of Key Features
* Hybrid Momentum/Volatility Engine: Combines RSI and ATR logic.
* Noise Reduction: Averages 20 different data points to find "True" support and resistance.
* Long-Term Reference: Unique tracking system that remembers signal levels for thousands of bars.
* Visual Clarity: Intuitive color coding for trend direction and extreme price zones.

Momentum by Trading BiZonesSqueeze Momentum Indicator with EMA
Overview
The Squeeze Momentum Indicator with EMA is a powerful technical analysis tool that combines the original Squeeze Momentum concept with an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) overlay. This enhanced version helps traders identify market momentum, volatility contractions (squeezes), and potential trend reversals with greater precision.
Core Concept
The indicator operates on the principle of volatility contraction and expansion:
Squeeze Phase: When Bollinger Bands move inside the Keltner Channel, indicating low volatility and potential energy buildup
Expansion Phase: When momentum breaks out of the squeeze, signaling potential directional moves
Key Components
1. Squeeze Momentum Calculation
Formula: Momentum = Linear Regression(Close - Average Price)
Where Average Price = (Highest High + Lowest Low + SMA(Close)) / 3
Visualization: Histogram bars showing positive (green) and negative (red) momentum
Zero Line: Represents equilibrium point between buyers and sellers
2. EMA Overlay
Purpose: Smooths momentum values to identify underlying trends
Customization:
Adjustable period (default: 20)
Toggle on/off display
Customizable color and line thickness
Cross Signals: Buy/sell signals when momentum crosses above/below EMA
3. Volatility Bands
Bollinger Bands (20-period, 2 standard deviations)
Keltner Channels (20-period, 1.5 ATR multiplier)
Squeeze Detection: Visual background shading when BB are inside KC
Trading Signals
Buy Signals (Green Upward Triangle)
Momentum histogram crosses ABOVE EMA line
Occurs during or after squeeze release
Confirmed by expanding histogram bars
Sell Signals (Red Downward Triangle)
Momentum histogram crosses BELOW EMA line
Often precedes market downturns
Watch for increasing negative momentum
Squeeze Warnings (Gray Background)
Market in low volatility state
Prepare for potential breakout
Direction indicated by momentum bias
Indicator Settings
Main Parameters
Length: Period for calculations (default: 20)
Show EMA: Toggle EMA visibility
EMA Period: Smoothing period for EMA
Visual Settings
Histogram color-coding based on momentum direction
EMA line color and thickness
Signal marker size and visibility
Squeeze zone background display
Practical Applications
Trend Identification
Uptrend: Consistently positive momentum with EMA support
Downtrend: Consistently negative momentum with EMA resistance
Range-bound: Oscillating around zero line
Entry/Exit Points
Conservative Entry: Wait for squeeze release + EMA crossover
Aggressive Entry: Anticipate breakout during squeeze
Exit: Opposite crossover or momentum divergence
Risk Management
Use squeeze zones as warning periods
EMA crossovers as confirmation signals
Combine with support/resistance levels
Advanced Interpretation
Momentum Strength
Strong Bullish: Tall green bars above EMA
Weak Bullish: Short green bars near EMA
Strong Bearish: Tall red bars below EMA
Weak Bearish: Short red bars near EMA
Divergence Detection
Price makes higher high, momentum makes lower high → Bearish divergence
Price makes lower low, momentum makes higher low → Bullish divergence
Squeeze Characteristics
Long squeezes: More potential energy
Frequent squeezes: Choppy market conditions
No squeezes: High volatility, trending markets
Recommended Timeframes
Scalping: 1-15 minute charts
Day Trading: 15-minute to 4-hour charts

Cold Brew Ranges🧭 Core Logic and Calculation
The fundamental logic for each range (OR and CR) is identical:
Time Definition: Each range is defined by a specific Start Time and a fixed 30-second duration. The timestamp function, using the "America/New_York" time zone, is used to calculate the exact start time in Unix milliseconds for the current day.
Example: t0200 = timestamp(TZ, yC, mC, dC, 2, 0, 0) sets the start time for the 02:00 OR to 2:00:00 AM NY time.
Range Data Collection: The indicator uses the request.security_lower_tf() function to collect the High (hArr) and Low (lArr) prices of all bars that fall within the defined 30-second window, using a user-specified, sub-chart-timeframe (openrangetime, defaulted to "1" second, "30S", or "5" minutes). This ensures high precision in capturing the exact high and low during the 30-second window.
High/Low Determination: It iteratively finds the absolute highest price (OR_high) and the absolute lowest price (OR_low) recorded by the bars during that 30-second window.
Range Locking: Once the current chart bar's time (lastTs) passes the 30-second End Time (tEnd), the High and Low are locked (OR_locked = true), meaning the range calculation is complete for the day.
Drawing: Upon locking, the range is drawn on the chart using line.new for the High, Low, and Equilibrium, and box.new for the shaded fill. The lines are extended to a subsequent time anchor point (e.g., the 02:00 OR is extended to 08:20, the 09:30 OR is extended to 16:00).
Equilibrium (EQ): This is calculated as the simple average (midpoint) of the High and Low of the range.
EQ=
2
OR_High+OR_Low
⏰ Defined Trading Ranges
The indicator defines and tracks the following specific 30-second ranges:
Range Name Type Start Time (NY) Line Extension End Time (NY) Common Market Context
02:00 OR Opening 02:00:00 08:20:00 Asian/European Market Overlap
08:20 OR Opening 08:20:00 16:00:00 Pre-New York Open
09:30 OR Opening 09:30:00 16:00:00 New York Stock Exchange Open (Most significant OR)
18:00 OR Opening 18:00:00 20:00:00 Futures Market Open (Sunday/Monday)
20:00 OR Opening 20:00:00 Next Day's session start Asian Session Start
15:50 CR Closing 15:50:00 20:00:00 New York Close Range
⚙️ Key User Inputs and Customization
The script offers extensive control over which ranges are displayed and how they are visualized:
Range Time & History
openrangetime: Sets the sub-timeframe (e.g., "1" for 1 second) used to calculate the precise High/Low of the 30-second range. Crucial for accuracy.
showHistory: A toggle to show the ranges from previous days (up to a histCap of 50 days).
Range Toggles and Styling
On/Off Toggles: Independent input.bool (e.g., OR_0200_on) to enable or disable the display of each individual range.
Colors & Width: Separate color and width inputs for the High/Low lines (hlC), the Equilibrium line (eqC), and the background fill (fillC) for each range.
Line Styles: Global inputs for the line styles of High/Low (lineStyleInput) and Equilibrium (eqLineStyleInput) lines (Solid, Dotted, or Dashed).
showFill: Global toggle to enable the shaded background box that highlights the area between the High and Low.
Extensions
The script calculates and plots extensions (multiples of the initial range) above the High and below the Low.
showExt: Toggles the visibility of the extension lines.
useRangeMultiples: If true, the step size for each extension level is equal to the initial range size:
Step=Range=OR_High−OR_Low
If false, the step size is a fixed value defined by stepPts (e.g., 60.0 points, which is a common value for NQ futures).
stepCnt: Determines how many extension levels (multiples) are drawn above and below the range (default is 10).
📈 Trading Strategy Implications
The Cold Brew Ranges indicator is a tool for session-based support and resistance and range breakout/reversal strategies.
Key Support/Resistance: The High and Low of these defined opening ranges often act as strong, predefined price levels. Traders look for price rejection off these boundaries or a breakout with conviction.
Equilibrium (Midpoint): The EQ often represents a fair value for that specific session's opening. Movements away from it are seen as opportunities, and a return to it is common.
Extensions: The range extensions serve as potential profit targets or stronger, layered support/resistance levels if the market trends aggressively after the opening range is set.
The core idea is that the activity in the first 30 seconds of a significant trading session (like the NYSE or a market session open) sets a bias and initial boundary for the trading period that follows.
Smart Cloud by Ilker (Custom Matriks)A Proprietary Hybrid Trend System for All Major Financial Assets
This indicator, originally developed for the Matriks platform, is a highly effective hybrid trend identification system designed for day-to-day analysis across all major asset classes, including Stocks, Forex, Indices, and Cryptocurrencies. It combines the forward-looking principle of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud with heavily smoothed Moving Averages (MAs) to create a clear, visually guided trading signal. (Daily Timeframe recommended for optimal results).
📊 Algorithmic Structure and Parameters
The "Smart Cloud" utilizes six primary user-adjustable parameters that govern its sensitivity and shape, moving away from standard Ichimoku settings to provide a robust, customized trend view:
P1, P2, P3 (60, 56, 248): These long-term settings define the core structure and width of the cloud, acting as the primary dynamic support and resistance zone. The significantly longer P3 (Lagging Period) ensures the cloud reflects strong, deep market cycles.
P4 (Displacement 26): Maintains the traditional Ichimoku principle of projecting the cloud 26 periods forward to provide a predictive view of future trend support/resistance.
P5 (MA50 - Blue) & P6 (MA10 - Purple): These are the two primary Moving Averages plotted inside the cloud. They serve as fast-response momentum lines:
P5 (MA50): Represents the middle-term trend average.
P6 (MA10): Represents the short-term market momentum.
📈 Core Trend and Signal Interpretation
The indicator provides powerful trend identification based on three key components:
The Cloud (Kumo):
Green Cloud (Bullish): Indicates the dominant trend is up, suggesting dynamic support for price action.
Red Cloud (Bearish): Indicates the dominant trend is down, suggesting dynamic resistance.
The thickness and slope of the cloud are key indicators of trend strength.
MA Crossover Signal (Blue/Purple):
Buy Signal: When the faster Purple MA (P6=10) crosses above the slower Blue MA (P5=50).
Sell Signal: When the faster Purple MA (P6=10) crosses below the slower Blue MA (P5=50).
Price Action & Confirmation:
The most powerful signals occur when a MA Crossover is confirmed by price breaking out of the cloud in the same direction.
Price above the cloud and MA crossover to the upside suggests a strong buy entry.

MA SMART Angle
### 📊 WHAT IS MA SMART ANGLE?
**MA SMART Angle** is an advanced momentum and trend detection indicator that analyzes the angles (slopes) of multiple moving averages to generate clear, non-repainting BUY and SELL signals.
**Original Concept Credit:** This indicator builds upon the "MA Angles" concept originally created by **JD** (also known as Duyck). The core angle calculation methodology and Jurik Moving Average (JMA) implementation by **Everget** are preserved from the original open-source work. The angle calculation formula was contributed by **KyJ**. This enhanced version is published with respect to the open-source nature of the original indicator.
Original indicator reference: "ma angles - JD" by Duyck
---
## 🎯 ORIGINALITY & VALUE PROPOSITION
### **What Makes This Different from the Original:**
While the original "MA Angles" by **JD** provided excellent angle visualization, it lacked actionable entry signals. **MA SMART Angle** addresses this by adding:
**1. Clear Entry/Exit Signals**
- Explicit BUY/SELL arrows based on angle crossovers, momentum confirmation, and MA alignment
- No guessing when to enter trades - the indicator tells you exactly when conditions align
**2. Non-Repainting Logic**
- All signals use confirmed historical data (shifted by 2 bars minimum)
- Critical for backtesting reliability and live trading confidence
- Original indicator could repaint signals on current bar
**3. Dual Signal System**
- **Simple Mode:** More frequent signals based on angle crossovers + momentum (for active traders)
- **Strict Mode:** Requires full multi-MA alignment + momentum confirmation (for conservative traders)
- Adaptable to different trading styles and risk tolerances
**4. Smart Signal Filtering**
- **Anti-spam cooldown:** Prevents duplicate signals within configurable bar count
- **No-trade zone detection:** Filters out low-conviction sideways markets automatically
- **Multi-timeframe MA alignment:** Ensures all moving averages agree on direction before signaling
**5. Enhanced Visualization**
- Large, clear BUY/SELL arrows with descriptive labels
- Color-coded backgrounds for market states (trending vs. ranging)
- Momentum histogram showing acceleration/deceleration in real-time
- Live status table displaying trend strength, angle value, momentum, and MA alignment
**6. Professional Alert System**
- Four distinct alert conditions: BUY Signal, SELL Signal, Strong BUY, Strong SELL
- Enables automated trade notifications and strategy integration
**7. Modified MA Periods**
- Original used EMA(27), EMA(83), EMA(278)
- Enhanced version uses faster EMA(3), EMA(8), EMA(13) for more responsive signals
- Better suited for modern volatile markets and shorter timeframes
---
## 📐 HOW IT WORKS - TECHNICAL EXPLANATION
### **Core Methodology:**
The indicator calculates angles (slopes) for five key moving averages:
- **JMA (Jurik Moving Average)** - Smooth, lag-reduced trend line (original implementation by **Everget**)
- **JMA Fast** - Responsive momentum indicator with higher power parameter
- **MA27 (EMA 3)** - Primary fast-moving average for signal generation
- **MA83 (EMA 8)** - Medium-term trend confirmation
- **MA278 (EMA 13)** - Slower trend filter
### **Angle Calculation Formula (by KyJ):**
```
angle = arctan((MA - MA ) / ATR(14)) × (180 / π)
```
**Why ATR normalization?**
- Makes angles comparable across different instruments (forex, stocks, crypto)
- Makes angles comparable across different timeframes
- Accounts for volatility - a 10-point move in different assets has different significance
**Angle Interpretation:**
- **> 15°** = Strong trend (momentum accelerating)
- **0° to 15°** = Weak trend (momentum present but moderate)
- **-2° to +2°** = No-trade zone (sideways/choppy market)
- **< -15°** = Strong downtrend
### **Signal Generation Logic:**
#### **BUY Signal Conditions:**
1. MA27 angle crosses above 0° (upward momentum initiates)
2. All three EMAs (3, 8, 13) pointing upward (trend alignment confirmed)
3. Momentum is positive for 2+ bars (acceleration, not deceleration)
4. Angle exceeds minimum threshold (not in no-trade zone)
5. Cooldown period passed (prevents signal spam)
#### **SELL Signal Conditions:**
1. MA27 angle crosses below 0° (downward momentum initiates)
2. All three EMAs pointing downward (downtrend alignment)
3. Momentum is negative for 2+ bars
4. Angle below negative threshold (not in no-trade zone)
5. Cooldown period passed
#### **Strong BUY+ / SELL+ Signals:**
Additional entry opportunities when JMA Fast crosses JMA Slow while maintaining strong directional angle - indicates momentum acceleration within established trend.

- Angles below this are considered sideways/ranging
- Increase for stricter filtering of choppy markets
- Decrease to allow signals in quieter trending periods
**3. Signal Type** (Simple vs. Strict)
- **Simple:** Angle crossover OR (trend + momentum)
- **Strict:** Angle crossover AND all MAs aligned AND momentum confirmed
- Start with Simple, switch to Strict if too many false signals
**4. Minimum Angle for Signal** (default: 5°)
- Only generate signals when angle exceeds this threshold
- Higher values = stronger trends required
- Lower values = more sensitive to momentum changes
**5. Cooldown Bars** (default: 5)
- Minimum bars between consecutive signals
- Prevents spam during volatile chop
- Scale with your timeframe (higher TF = more bars)
**6. Color Bars** (default: true)
- Colors chart bars based on signal state
- Green = bullish conditions, Red = bearish conditions
- Can disable if you prefer clean price bars

## 📚 EDUCATIONAL VALUE
This indicator serves as an excellent learning tool for understanding:
**1. Angle-Based Momentum Analysis**
- Traditional indicators show MA crossovers
- This shows the *rate of change* (velocity) of MAs
- Teaches traders to think in terms of momentum acceleration
**2. Multi-Timeframe Confirmation**
- Shows how fast, medium, and slow MAs interact
- Demonstrates importance of trend alignment
- Helps develop patience for high-probability setups
**3. Signal Quality vs. Quantity Tradeoff**
- Simple mode = more signals, more noise
- Strict mode = fewer signals, higher quality
- Teaches discretionary filtering skills
**4. Market State Recognition**
- Visual distinction between trending and ranging markets
- Helps traders avoid trading choppy conditions
- Develops "market context" awareness

## 🔄 DIFFERENCES FROM OTHER MA INDICATORS
**vs. Traditional MA Crossovers:**
- Measures momentum (angle) rather than just price crossing MA
- Provides earlier signals as angles change before price crosses
- Filters better for sideways markets using no-trade zones
**vs. MACD:**
- Uses multiple MAs instead of just two
- ATR normalization makes it universal across instruments
- Visual angle representation more intuitive than histogram
**vs. Supertrend:**
- Not based on ATR bands but on MA slope analysis
- Provides graduated strength indication (not just binary trend)
- Less prone to whipsaw in low volatility
**vs. Original "MA Angles" by JD:**
- Adds explicit entry/exit signals (original had none)
- Implements no-repaint logic for reliability
- Includes signal filtering and quality controls
- Provides dual signal systems (Simple/Strict)
- Enhanced visualization and status monitoring
- Uses faster MA periods (3/8/13 vs 27/83/278) for modern markets

Bitcoin CME gaps multi-timeframe auto finder1. Overview
The Bitcoin CME Gap Multi-Timeframe Detector automatically identifies price gaps in the Bitcoin CME (Chicago Mercantile Exchange) futures market and visually displays them on the TradingView chart.
Because the CME futures market closes for about an hour after each weekday session and remains closed over the weekend, price gaps frequently appear when trading resumes on Monday.
This indicator analyzes gaps across six major timeframes, from 5-minute to 1-day charts, allowing traders to easily identify structural imbalances and potential support/resistance zones.
It is the most accurate and feature-rich CME gaps indicator available on TradingView.
2. Key Features
■ Multi-Timeframe Gap Detection
Analyzes 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 4h, and 1D charts simultaneously.
This enables traders to observe both short-term volatility and mid-to-long-term structure, providing a multi-dimensional view of market dynamics.
■ Gap Direction Classification
Up Gap: When the next candle’s open is higher than the previous candle’s high (default color: green tone)
Down Gap: When the next candle’s open is lower than the previous candle’s low (default color: red tone)
Gaps are color-coded to intuitively visualize potential support and resistance zones.
■ Highlight Function
Gaps exceeding a user-defined threshold (%) are highlighted (default color: yellow).
This helps quickly identify zones with abnormal volatility or sharp price dislocations.
■ Labels and Box Extension
Each gap displays a percentage label indicating its relative size and significance.
Gap zones are extended to the right as boxes, allowing traders to visually track when and how the gap gets filled over time.
■ Alert System
When a gap forms on the selected timeframe (or across all timeframes), a TradingView alert is triggered.
This enables real-time response to significant gap events.
3. Trading Strategies
■ Gap Fill Behavior
CME gaps statistically tend to get filled over time.
Gap boxes help distinguish between filled and unfilled gaps at a glance.
Up Gap: Price tends to decline to fill the previous high–next open zone.
Down Gap: Price often rises later to fill the previous low–next open zone.
■ Support & Resistance Levels
Gap zones frequently act as strong support or resistance.
When price retests a gap area, observing the reaction of buyers and sellers can provide valuable trading insights.
Overlapping gap boxes across multiple timeframes indicate high-confidence support/resistance zones.
■ Market Sentiment & Volatility Analysis
Large gaps usually result from shifts in market sentiment or major news events.
This indicator allows traders to detect volatility spikes early and prepare for potential trend reversals.
■ Combination with Other Technical Tools
While fully functional on its own, this indicator works even better when combined with tools like moving averages (MA), RSI, MACD, or Fibonacci retracements.
For example, if the bottom of a gap coincides with the 0.618 Fibonacci level, it may signal a strong rebound zone.
4. Settings Options
Minimum Gap % | Sets the minimum percentage movement required to detect a gap (lower values show smaller gaps)
Display Timeframes | Choose which timeframes to display (5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 4h, 1D)
Box Colors | Assign colors for up and down gaps
Box Extension (Bars) | Number of bars to extend gap boxes to the right
Show Labels | Toggle display of gap percentage labels
Label Position / Size | Adjust label position and size
Highlight Gap ≥ % | Highlight gaps exceeding a specified percentage
Highlight Colors | Set highlight color for labels and boxes
Enable Alerts | Enable or disable alerts
Alert Timeframe | Select timeframe(s) for alerts (“All” = all timeframes)
5. Summary
This indicator is a professional trading tool that provides quantitative and visual analysis of price gaps in the Bitcoin CME futures market.
By combining multi-timeframe detection, highlighting, and alert systems, it helps traders clearly identify zones of market imbalance and potential reversal areas.
