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.

T3 [DCAUT]█ T3
📊 INDICATOR OVERVIEW
The T3 Moving Average is a smoothing indicator developed by Tim Tillson and published in Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities magazine (January 1998). The algorithm applies Generalized DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average) recursively three times, creating a six-pole filtering effect that aims to balance noise reduction with responsiveness while minimizing lag relative to price changes.
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
Generalized DEMA (GD) Function:
The core building block is the Generalized DEMA function, which combines two exponential moving averages with weights controlled by the volume factor:
GD(input, v) = EMA(input) × (1 + v) - EMA(EMA(input)) × v
Where v is the volume factor parameter (default 0.7). This weighted combination reduces lag while maintaining smoothness by extrapolating beyond the first EMA using the double-smoothed EMA as a reference.
T3 Calculation Process:
T3 applies the GD function three times recursively:
T3 = GD(GD(GD(Price, v), v), v)
This triple nesting creates a six-pole smoothing effect (each GD applies two EMA operations, resulting in 2 × 3 = 6 total EMA calculations). The cascading refinement progressively filters noise while preserving trend information.
Step-by-Step Breakdown:
First GD application: GD1 = EMA(Price) × (1 + v) - EMA(EMA(Price)) × v - Creates initial smoothed series with lag reduction
Second GD application: GD2 = EMA(GD1) × (1 + v) - EMA(EMA(GD1)) × v - Further refines the smoothing while maintaining responsiveness
Third GD application: T3 = EMA(GD2) × (1 + v) - EMA(EMA(GD2)) × v - Final refinement produces the T3 output
Volume Factor Impact:
The volume factor (v) is the key parameter controlling the balance between smoothness and responsiveness. Tim Tillson recommended v = 0.7 as the optimal default value.
Lower volume factors (v closer to 0.0): Increase the extrapolation effect, making T3 more responsive to price changes but potentially more sensitive to noise.
Higher volume factors (v closer to 1.0): Reduce the extrapolation effect, producing smoother output with less sensitivity to short-term fluctuations but slightly more lag.
The recursive application of the volume factor through three GD stages creates a nonlinear filtering effect that achieves superior lag reduction compared to traditional moving averages of equivalent smoothness.
📊 SIGNAL INTERPRETATION
Trend Direction Signals:
Green Line (T3 Rising): Smoothed trend line is rising, may indicate uptrend, consider bullish opportunities when confirmed by other factors
Red Line (T3 Falling): Smoothed trend line is falling, may indicate downtrend, consider bearish opportunities when confirmed by other factors
Gray Line (T3 Flat): Smoothed trend line is flat, indicates unclear trend or consolidation phase
Price Crossover Signals:
Price Crosses Above T3: Price breaks above smoothed trend line, may be bullish signal, requires confirmation from other indicators
Price Crosses Below T3: Price breaks below smoothed trend line, may be bearish signal, requires confirmation from other indicators
Price Position Relative to T3: Price sustained above T3 may indicate uptrend, sustained below may indicate downtrend
Supporting Analysis Signals:
T3 Slope Angle: Steeper slopes indicate stronger trend momentum, flatter slopes suggest weakening trends
Price Deviation: Significant price separation from T3 may indicate overextension, watch for pullback or reversal
Dynamic Support/Resistance: T3 line can serve as dynamic support (in uptrends) or resistance (in downtrends) reference
🎯 STRATEGIC APPLICATIONS
Common Usage Patterns:
The T3 Moving Average can be incorporated into trading analysis in various ways. These represent common approaches used by market participants, though effectiveness varies by market conditions and requires individual testing:
Trend Filtering:
T3 can be used as a trend filter by observing the relationship between price and the T3 line. The color-coded slope (green for rising, red for falling, gray for sideways) provides visual feedback about the current trend direction of the smoothed series.
Price Crossover Analysis:
Some traders monitor crossovers between price and the T3 line as potential indication points. When price crosses the T3 line, it may suggest a change in the relationship between current price action and the smoothed trend.
Multi-Timeframe Observation:
T3 can be applied to multiple timeframes simultaneously. Observing alignment or divergence between different timeframe T3 indicators may provide context about trend consistency across time scales.
Dynamic Reference Level:
The T3 line can serve as a dynamic reference level for price action analysis. Price distance from T3, price reactions when approaching T3, and the behavior of price relative to the T3 line can all be incorporated into market analysis frameworks.
Application Considerations:
Any trading application should be thoroughly tested on historical data before implementation
T3 performance characteristics vary across different market conditions and asset types
The indicator provides smoothed trend information but does not predict future price movements
Combining T3 with other analytical tools and market context improves analysis quality
Risk management practices remain essential regardless of the analytical approach used
📋 DETAILED PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
Source Selection:
Close Price (Default): Standard choice for end-of-period trend analysis, reduces intrabar noise
HL2 (High+Low)/2: Provides balanced view of price action, considers full bar range
HLC3 or OHLC4: Incorporates more price information, may provide smoother results
Selection Impact: Different sources affect signal timing and smoothness characteristics
Length Configuration:
Shorter periods: More responsive, faster reaction, frequent signals, but higher false signal risk in choppy markets
Longer periods: Smoother output, fewer signals, better for long-term trends, but slower response
Default 14 periods is a common baseline, but optimal length varies by asset, timeframe, and market conditions
Parameter selection should be determined through backtesting rather than general recommendations
Volume Factor Configuration:
Lower values (closer to 0.0): Increase responsiveness but also noise sensitivity
Higher values (closer to 1.0): Increase smoothness but slightly more lag
Default 0.7 (Tim Tillson's recommendation) provides good balance for most applications
Optimal value depends on signal frequency versus reliability preference, test for specific use case
Parameter Optimization Approach:
There are no universal "best" parameter values - optimal settings depend on the specific asset, timeframe, market regime, and trading strategy
Start with default values (Length: 14, Volume Factor: 0.7) and adjust based on observed performance in your target market
Conduct systematic backtesting across different market conditions to evaluate parameter sensitivity
Consider that parameters optimized for historical data may not perform identically in future market conditions
Monitor performance and be prepared to adjust parameters as market characteristics evolve
📈 DESIGN FEATURES & MARKET ADAPTATION
Algorithm Design Features:
Simple Moving Average (SMA): Equal weighting across lookback period
Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Exponentially decreasing weights on historical prices
T3 Moving Average: Recursive Generalized DEMA with adjustable volume factor
Market Condition Adaptation:
Trending markets: Smoothed indicators generally align more closely with sustained directional movement
Ranging markets: All moving averages may generate more crossover signals during non-trending periods
Volatile conditions: Higher smoothing parameters reduce short-term sensitivity but increase lag
Indicator behavior relative to market conditions should be evaluated for specific applications
USAGE NOTES
This indicator is designed for technical analysis and educational purposes. The T3 Moving Average has limitations and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions. Like all trend-following indicators, its performance varies with market conditions, and past signal characteristics do not guarantee future results.
Key Points:
T3 is a lagging indicator that responds to price changes rather than predicting future movements
Signals should be confirmed with other technical tools and market context
Parameters should be optimized for specific market and timeframe
Risk management and position sizing are essential
Market regime changes can affect indicator effectiveness
Test strategies thoroughly on historical data before live implementation
Consider broader market context and fundamental factors
Kalman Filter [DCAUT]█ Kalman Filter
📊 ORIGINALITY & INNOVATION
The Kalman Filter represents an important adaptation of aerospace signal processing technology to financial market analysis. Originally developed by Rudolf E. Kalman in 1960 for navigation and guidance systems, this implementation brings the algorithm's noise reduction capabilities to price trend analysis.
This implementation addresses a common challenge in technical analysis: the trade-off between smoothness and responsiveness. Traditional moving averages must choose between being smooth (with increased lag) or responsive (with increased noise). The Kalman Filter improves upon this limitation through its recursive estimation approach, which continuously balances historical trend information with current price data based on configurable noise parameters.
The key advancement lies in the algorithm's adaptive weighting mechanism. Rather than applying fixed weights to historical data like conventional moving averages, the Kalman Filter dynamically adjusts its trust between the predicted trend and observed prices. This allows it to provide smoother signals during stable periods while maintaining responsiveness during genuine trend changes, helping to reduce whipsaws in ranging markets while not missing significant price movements.
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
The Kalman Filter operates through a two-phase recursive process:
Prediction Phase:
The algorithm first predicts the next state based on the previous estimate:
State Prediction: Estimates the next value based on current trend
Error Covariance Prediction: Calculates uncertainty in the prediction
Update Phase:
Then updates the prediction based on new price observations:
Kalman Gain Calculation: Determines the weight given to new measurements
State Update: Combines prediction with observation based on calculated gain
Error Covariance Update: Adjusts uncertainty estimate for next iteration
Core Parameters:
Process Noise (Q): Represents uncertainty in the trend model itself. Higher values indicate the trend can change more rapidly, making the filter more responsive to price changes.
Measurement Noise (R): Represents uncertainty in price observations. Higher values indicate less trust in individual price points, resulting in smoother output.
Kalman Gain Formula:
The Kalman Gain determines how much weight to give new observations versus predictions:
K = P(k|k-1) / (P(k|k-1) + R)
Where:
K is the Kalman Gain (0 to 1)
P(k|k-1) is the predicted error covariance
R is the measurement noise parameter
When K approaches 1, the filter trusts new measurements more (responsive).
When K approaches 0, the filter trusts its prediction more (smooth).
This dynamic adjustment mechanism allows the filter to adapt to changing market conditions automatically, providing an advantage over fixed-weight moving averages.
📊 COMPREHENSIVE SIGNAL ANALYSIS
Visual Trend Indication:
The Kalman Filter line provides color-coded trend information:
Green Line: Indicates the filter value is rising, suggesting upward price momentum
Red Line: Indicates the filter value is falling, suggesting downward price momentum
Gray Line: Indicates sideways movement with no clear directional bias
Crossover Signals:
Price-filter crossovers generate trading signals:
Golden Cross: Price crosses above the Kalman Filter line, suggests potential bullish momentum development, may indicate a favorable environment for long positions, filter will naturally turn green as it adapts to price moving higher
Death Cross: Price crosses below the Kalman Filter line, suggests potential bearish momentum development, may indicate consideration for position reduction or shorts, filter will naturally turn red as it adapts to price moving lower
Trend Confirmation:
The filter serves as a dynamic trend baseline:
Price Consistently Above Filter: Confirms established uptrend
Price Consistently Below Filter: Confirms established downtrend
Frequent Crossovers: Suggests ranging or choppy market conditions
Signal Reliability Factors:
Signal quality varies based on market conditions:
Higher reliability in trending markets with sustained directional moves
Lower reliability in choppy, range-bound conditions with frequent reversals
Parameter adjustment can help adapt to different market volatility levels
🎯 STRATEGIC APPLICATIONS
Trend Following Strategy:
Use the Kalman Filter as a dynamic trend baseline:
Enter long positions when price crosses above the filter
Enter short positions when price crosses below the filter
Exit when price crosses back through the filter in the opposite direction
Monitor filter slope (color) for trend strength confirmation
Dynamic Support/Resistance:
The filter can act as a moving support or resistance level:
In uptrends: Filter often provides dynamic support for pullbacks
In downtrends: Filter often provides dynamic resistance for bounces
Price rejections from the filter can offer entry opportunities in trend direction
Filter breaches may signal potential trend reversals
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
Combine Kalman Filters across different timeframes:
Higher timeframe filter identifies primary trend direction
Lower timeframe filter provides precise entry and exit timing
Trade only in direction of higher timeframe trend for better probability
Use lower timeframe crossovers for position entry/exit within major trend
Volatility-Adjusted Configuration:
Adapt parameters to match market conditions:
Low Volatility Markets (Forex majors, stable stocks): Use lower process noise for stability, use lower measurement noise for sensitivity
Medium Volatility Markets (Most equities): Process noise default (0.05) provides balanced performance, measurement noise default (1.0) for general-purpose filtering
High Volatility Markets (Cryptocurrencies, volatile stocks): Use higher process noise for responsiveness, use higher measurement noise for noise reduction
Risk Management Integration:
Use filter as a trailing stop-loss level in trending markets
Tighten stops when price moves significantly away from filter (overextension)
Wider stops in early trend formation when filter is just establishing direction
Consider position sizing based on distance between price and filter
📋 DETAILED PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
Source Selection:
Determines which price data feeds the algorithm:
OHLC4 (default): Uses average of open, high, low, close for balanced representation
Close: Focuses purely on closing prices for end-of-period analysis
HL2: Uses midpoint of high and low for range-based analysis
HLC3: Typical price, gives more weight to closing price
HLCC4: Weighted close price, emphasizes closing values
Process Noise (Q) - Adaptation Speed Control:
This parameter controls how quickly the filter adapts to changes:
Technical Meaning:
Represents uncertainty in the underlying trend model
Higher values allow the estimated trend to change more rapidly
Lower values assume the trend is more stable and slow-changing
Practical Impact:
Lower Values: Produces very smooth output with minimal noise, slower to respond to genuine trend changes, best for long-term trend identification, reduces false signals in choppy markets
Medium Values: Balanced responsiveness and smoothness, suitable for swing trading applications, default (0.05) works well for most markets
Higher Values: More responsive to price changes, may produce more false signals in ranging markets, better for short-term trading and day trading, captures trend changes earlier, adjust freely based on market characteristics
Measurement Noise (R) - Smoothing Control:
This parameter controls how much the filter trusts individual price observations:
Technical Meaning:
Represents uncertainty in price measurements
Higher values indicate less trust in individual price points
Lower values make each price observation more influential
Practical Impact:
Lower Values: More reactive to each price change, less smoothing with more noise in output, may produce choppy signals
Medium Values: Balanced smoothing and responsiveness, default (1.0) provides general-purpose filtering
Higher Values: Heavy smoothing for very noisy markets, reduces whipsaws significantly but increases lag in trend change detection, best for cryptocurrency and highly volatile assets, can use larger values for extreme smoothing
Parameter Interaction:
The ratio between Process Noise and Measurement Noise determines overall behavior:
High Q / Low R: Very responsive, minimal smoothing
Low Q / High R: Very smooth, maximum lag reduction
Balanced Q and R: Middle ground for most applications
Optimization Guidelines:
Start with default values (Q=0.05, R=1.0)
If too many false signals: Increase R or decrease Q
If missing trend changes: Decrease R or increase Q
Test across different market conditions before live use
Consider different settings for different timeframes

USAGE NOTES
This indicator is designed for technical analysis and educational purposes. The Kalman Filter's effectiveness varies with market conditions, tending to perform better in markets with clear trending phases interrupted by consolidation. Like all technical indicators, it has limitations and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions, but rather as part of a comprehensive trading approach.
Algorithm performance varies with market conditions, and past characteristics do not guarantee future results. Always test thoroughly with different parameter settings across various market conditions before using in live trading. No technical indicator can predict future price movements with certainty, and all trading involves risk of loss.

Simple Pivot Zones (Error-free) — v11. Core Idea
The indicator we built is a “pivot-based zone detector with breakout signals.”
It does three things:
1. Finds important swing highs and swing lows in price (pivots).
2. Creates support and resistance zones around those pivots using volatility (ATR).
3. Watches price action to see if those zones get broken, then gives signals.
________________________________________
2. What is a Pivot?
A pivot high happens when the price makes a local peak — a bar is higher than the bars around it.
A pivot low happens when the price makes a local dip — a bar is lower than the bars around it.
These are natural turning points in the market, showing where buyers or sellers had strong control temporarily. Traders often use them to draw support (pivot lows) and resistance (pivot highs).
________________________________________
3. Why Use ATR for Zones?
ATR (Average True Range) measures the average volatility of a market. Instead of drawing just a flat line at the pivot, we create a zone above and below it, sized according to ATR.
Example:
• If ATR is 20 points and zone size is 0.5, then the zone extends 10 points above and below the pivot level.
This turns thin “lines” into thicker areas of interest. Real markets don’t respect razor-thin levels, but zones are more realistic.
________________________________________
4. How Support & Resistance Zones Work
• Resistance zones are created at pivot highs. They mark where sellers were strong before.
• Support zones are created at pivot lows. They mark where buyers were strong before.
Over time, these zones extend forward until the price interacts with them.
________________________________________
5. Breakout Detection
The indicator checks whether the price closes beyond the last pivot high or low:
• If price closes above the last pivot high, it means buyers have broken resistance.
• If price closes below the last pivot low, it means sellers have broken support.
These moments are significant because they often trigger trend continuation.
________________________________________
6. Parameters It Uses
1. Pivot Length – how many bars to look back and forward to confirm a pivot. A higher length makes pivots less frequent but stronger.
2. ATR Length and Multiplier – defines the size of the zones (wider zones in more volatile markets).
3. Max Zones to Keep – avoids clutter by keeping only the most recent zones.
4. Colors & Styling – helps traders visually separate bullish and bearish zones.
________________________________________
7. How It Helps Traders
• Visual clarity: Instead of guessing support and resistance, the chart automatically highlights them.
• Dynamic adjustment: Zones adapt to volatility using ATR, making them useful in both calm and volatile markets.
• Breakout signals: Traders get notified when price actually breaks key levels, instead of reacting late.
• Cleaner charts: Instead of dozens of hand-drawn lines, the tool manages zones for you, deleting old ones.
________________________________________
8. The Logic in One Sentence
It finds important swing highs and lows, turns them into support/resistance zones scaled by volatility, and alerts you when the market breaks through them.
________________________________________
👉 In practice, this helps traders spot where the market is likely to bounce or break, and gives a framework to plan trades — for example, buying on bullish breakouts or selling on bearish breakouts.

Stalonte EMA - Stable Long-Term EMA with AlertsStalonte EMA - The Adaptive & Stable EMA - Almost Eternal
Here's why you will love "Stalonte":
The Stalonte (Stable Long-Term EMA) is a highly versatile trend-following tool. Unlike standard EMAs with fixed periods, it uses a configurable smoothing constant (alpha), allowing traders to dial in the exact level of responsiveness and stability they need. Finding the "sweet spot" (e.g., alpha ~0.03) creates a uniquely effective moving average: it is smooth enough to filter out noise and identify safe, high-probability trends, yet responsive enough to provide actionable signals without extreme lag. It includes alerts for crossovers and retests.
Pros and Cons of the Stalonte EMA
Pros:
Unparalleled Adaptability: This is its greatest strength. The alpha input lets you seamlessly transform the indicator from an ultra-slow "trend-revealer" (low alpha) into a highly effective and "safe" trend-following tool (medium alpha, e.g., 0.03), all the way to a more reactive one.
Optimized for Safety & Signal Quality: As you astutely pointed out, with the proper setting (like 0.03), it finds the perfect balance. It provides a smoother path than a standard 20-50 period EMA, which reduces whipsaws and false breakouts, leading to safer, higher-confidence signals.
Superior Trend Visualization: It gives a cleaner and more intuitive representation of the market's direction than many conventional moving averages, making it easier to "see" the trend and stick with it.
Objective Dynamic Support/Resistance: The line created with a medium alpha setting acts as a powerful dynamic support in uptrends and resistance in downtrends, offering excellent areas for entries on retests with integrated alerts.
Cons:
Requires Calibration: The only "con" is that its performance is not plug-and-play; it requires the user to find their optimal alpha value for their specific trading style and the instrument they are trading. This demands a period of testing and customization, which a standard 50-period EMA does not.
Conceptual Hurdle: For traders only familiar with period-based EMAs, the concept of a "smoothing constant" can be initially confusing compared to simply setting a "length."
In summary:
The Stalonte EMA is not a laggy relic. It is a highly sophisticated and adaptable tool. Its design allows for precise tuning, enabling a trader to discover a setting that offers a superior blend of stability and responsiveness—a "sweet spot" that provides safer and often more effective signals than many traditional moving averages. Thank you for pushing for a more accurate and fair assessment.
Use Case Example:
You can combine it with classical EMAs to find the perfect entry.
Fixed Range Volume Profile"Distribution of transaction volume by price group (transaction volume by price block)"
Instructions for use (Professional Manual)
1. a basic concept
By vertical axis (price), shows the cumulative trading volume traded in the segment.
The longer the block, the more transactions took place in that price range.
Colors distinguish between buying/selling strength (green = buying advantage, red = selling advantage).
2. Key components
POC (Point of Control)
→ Longest block (most traded price segment, "key selling point").
VAH / VAL (Value Area High/Low)
→ Top/bottom segments where approximately 70% of the total volume is formed.
→ Role of "Major Support/Resistance".
High Capacity Node (HVN)
→ Significantly higher trading volumes → strong support/resistance.
Low Volume Node (LVN)
→ Low volume section → areas where prices are easily passed.
3. practical application
Find Support/Resistance
The thickest block (POC) is used as a place where prices often rebound/resist.
a trading entry/liquidation strategy
Buy if the price is supported near HVN,
When breaking through the LVN, fast movement (gap movement) can be expected.
break/goal setting
Finger = Under the LVN,
Target = Next HVN.
Judgment of trends
When the block distribution is concentrated above, "Increase to Collection Section"
If you're driven below, you're "in a downtrend to a variance section."
4. Precautions
The volume distribution is "past data based" and is not an indicator of the future.
Rather than using it alone, it is more effective to combine with Fibonacci, trend lines, and candle patterns.
In particular, in the volatile market, the LVN breakthrough → may signal a surge/fall.
In summary, this block indicator is "a map showing the most market participants at any price point".
In other words, it is useful for finding support/resistance as a tool for analyzing sales and establishing the basis for trading strategies.
TRAPPER TRENDLINES — PRICEDraws dynamic trendlines on price by connecting the two most recent confirmed swing points (highs to highs for resistance, lows to lows for support). Swings are defined with a symmetric left/right pivot window. Old anchors are ignored so lines stay attached to current structure. Optional break alerts are included.
How it works (plain language)
Pivots: A bar is a swing high (or low) only if it’s the most extreme point compared with a set number of bars on the left and the right.
Lines:
Support connects the last two confirmed swing lows.
Resistance connects the last two confirmed swing highs.
Lines can be extended right only or both left & right (toggle).
Recency filter: Only swings within the last N bars are kept. This avoids anchoring to very old pivots far from current price.
Alerts: Optional alerts fire when price closes above resistance or below support.
Inputs
Auto Settings
Auto pivot size by chart timeframe: When ON, the script picks a pivot size suitable for the current timeframe (you can scale it with Auto pivot multiplier). When OFF, the manual left/right inputs are used.
Auto pivot multiplier: Scales the auto pivot size (e.g., 1.5 makes pivots stricter).
Manual Pivots
Pivot Left / Pivot Right: Bars to the left/right required to confirm a swing. Example: Left=50 & Right=50 keeps only major swings.
Recency Filter
Use last N bars for pivots: Swings older than this window are discarded so trendlines stay relevant to current price.
Style
Support/Resistance color: Line colors.
Extend Left & Right: When ON, both endpoints extend; when OFF, lines extend to the right only.
Alerts
Enable Break Alerts: When ON, alert conditions are exposed:
Price: Break Up — close above resistance.
Price: Break Down — close below support.
Suggested settings
Higher timeframes (4H / 1D / 1W):
Manual: Pivot Left = 50, Pivot Right = 50, Use last N bars = 400–800.
Or enable Auto with Auto pivot multiplier = 1.0–1.5.
Intraday (15m / 30m / 1H):
Manual: Pivot Left = 30, Pivot Right = 30, Use last N bars = 300–500.
Or enable Auto with multiplier ≈ 1.0–1.2.
Pairing with RSI for confluence/divergence
This tool is designed to pair with a companion TRAPPER TRENDLINES — RSI (or any RSI trendline script):
To mirror swings, set RSI Pivot Lookback equal to the price Pivot Left/Right you use here.
Example: Price = 50/50 → RSI Pivot Lookback = 50.
Keep RSI at Length 14 with 70/30 channel for clarity.
Confluence: Price holds/rejects at a trendline while RSI trendline agrees.
Divergence: Price prints a higher high (resistance line rising) while RSI prints a lower high (RSI resistance line falling), or vice-versa for lows. Matching pivot windows makes these relationships clear and reduces false signals.
Reading the signals
Trendline touch/hold: Potential reaction area; wait for follow-through.
Break Up / Break Down (alerts): Close beyond the line. Consider retest behavior, higher-timeframe context, and volume/RSI confirmation.
Notes & limitations
Pivots require future bars to confirm (by design). Lines update as pivots confirm.
“Use last N bars” purposely ignores very old swings. Increase this value if you need legacy structure.
Lines are based on two most recent confirmed pivots per side; rapidly changing markets can replace anchors as new swings confirm.
This is a visual/analytical tool. No strategy entries/exits or performance claims are provided.
Compliance
This script is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Trading involves risk. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. No promises of profit, accuracy, or performance are made.
Alerts (titles/messages)
Price: Break Up — “Price broke above resistance trendline.”
Price: Break Down — “Price broke below support trendline.”
Quick start
Add the indicator to your chart.
Choose Auto or set Pivot Left/Right manually.
Set Use last N bars for how far back to consider swings.
Toggle Extend Left & Right to your preference.
(Optional) Add your RSI trendline indicator and match Pivot Lookback with your price pivot size for clean confluence/divergence.
Enable alerts if you want notifications on breaks.
Sunset Zones by PDVDescription
Sunset Zones by PDV is an intraday reference indicator that plots key horizontal levels based on selected “root candles” throughout the trading day. At each programmed time, the indicator identifies the high and low of the corresponding candle and projects those levels forward with extended lines, providing traders with a clean visual framework of potential intraday reaction zones.
These zones serve as reference levels for support, resistance, liquidity grabs, and session context, allowing traders to analyze how price reacts around time-specific structures. Unlike lagging indicators, Sunset Zones gives traders real-time, rule-based levels tied directly to the price action of specific moments in the session.
Key Features
Predefined Time Codes
The script comes with a curated list of intraday timestamps (in HHMM format). Each represents a “root candle” from which levels are generated. Examples include 03:12, 06:47, 07:41, 08:51, etc. These time codes can reflect historically important market moments such as session opens, liquidity sweeps, or volatility inflection points.
Automatic Zone Plotting
At each root time, the script captures the candle’s high and low and instantly extends those levels forward across the chart. This provides consistent, objective reference points for intraday trading.
Extended Lines
Levels are projected far into the future (default: 500 bars) so traders can easily track how price interacts with those zones throughout the day.
Color-Coded Levels
Each root time is assigned a distinct color for fast identification. For example:
03:12 → Fuchsia
06:47 → Purple
07:41 → Teal
08:51 → White
09:53 → White
10:20 → Orange
11:10 → Green
11:49 → Red
12:05 → White
13:05 → Teal
14:09 → Aqua
This helps traders quickly recognize which time-of-day level price is interacting with.
Lightweight & Visual
The indicator focuses purely on price and time, avoiding complexity or lagging signals. It can be layered with other analysis tools, order flow charts, or session-based studies.
Practical Use Cases
Intraday Bias:
Observe whether price respects, rejects, or consolidates around these reference levels to form a bias.
Liquidity Zones:
High/low sweeps of the root candle can act as liquidity pools where institutions might trigger stops or reversals.
Support & Resistance:
Extended lines create intraday S/R zones without the need to manually draw levels.
Confluence Finder:
Combine Sunset Zones with VWAP, session ranges, Fibonacci levels, or higher-timeframe structure for layered confluence.
Important Notes
This is a visual reference tool only. It does not generate buy or sell signals.
Default times are provided, but the concept is flexible — traders can adapt it by modifying or expanding the list of time codes.
Works best on intraday timeframes where session structure is most relevant (e.g., 1-minute to 15-minute charts).
✅ In short: Sunset Zones by PDV gives intraday traders a systematic way to anchor their charts to important time-based highs and lows, creating a consistent framework for analyzing price reactions across the day.
Information-Geometric Market DynamicsInformation-Geometric Market Dynamics
The Information Field: A Geometric Approach to Market Dynamics
By: DskyzInvestments
Foreword: Beyond the Shadows on the Wall
If you have traded for any length of time, you know " the feeling ." It is the frustration of a perfect setup that fails, the whipsaw that stops you out just before the real move, the nagging sense that the chart is telling you only half the story. For decades, technical analysis has relied on interpreting the shadows—the patterns left behind by price. We draw lines on these shadows, apply indicators to them, and hope they reveal the future.
But what if we could stop looking at the shadows and, instead, analyze the object casting them?
This script introduces a new paradigm for market analysis: Information-Geometric Market Dynamics (IGMD) . The core premise of IGMD is that the price chart is merely a one-dimensional projection of a much richer, higher-dimensional reality—an " information field " generated by the collective actions and beliefs of all market participants.
This is not just another collection of indicators. It is a unified framework for measuring the geometry of the market's information field—its memory, its complexity, its uncertainty, its causal flows—and making high-probability decisions based on that deeper reality. By fusing advanced mathematical and informational concepts, IGMD provides a multi-faceted lens through which to view market behavior, moving beyond simple price action into the very structure of market information itself.
Prepare to move beyond the flatland of the price chart. Welcome to the information field.
The IGMD Framework: A Multi-Kernel Approach
What is a Kernel? The Heart of Transformation
In mathematics and data science, a kernel is a powerful and elegant concept. At its core, a kernel is a function that takes complex, often inscrutable data and transforms it into a more useful format. Think of it as a specialized lens or a mathematical "probe." You cannot directly measure abstract concepts like "market memory" or "trend quality" by looking at a price number. First, you must process the raw price data through a specific mathematical machine—a kernel—that is designed to output a measurement of that specific property. Kernels operate by performing a sort of "similarity test," projecting data into a higher-dimensional space where hidden patterns and relationships become visible and measurable.
Why do creators use them? We use kernels to extract features —meaningful pieces of information—that are not explicitly present in the raw data. They are the essential tools for moving beyond surface-level analysis into the very DNA of market behavior. A simple moving average can tell you the average price; a suite of well-chosen kernels can tell you about the character of the price action itself.
The Alchemist's Challenge: The Art of Fusion
Using a single kernel is a challenge. Using five distinct, computationally demanding mathematical engines in unison is an immense undertaking. The true difficulty—and artistry—lies not just in using one kernel, but in fusing the outputs of many . Each kernel provides a different perspective, and they can often give conflicting signals. One kernel might detect a strong trend, while another signals rising chaos and uncertainty. The IGMD script's greatest strength is its ability to act as this alchemist, synthesizing these disparate viewpoints through a weighted fusion process to produce a single, coherent picture of the market's state. It required countless hours of testing and calibration to balance the influence of these five distinct analytical engines so they work in harmony rather than cacophony.
The Five Kernels of Market Dynamics
The IGMD script is built upon a foundation of five distinct kernels, each chosen to probe a unique and critical dimension of the market's information field.
1. The Wavelet Kernel (The "Microscope")
What it is: The Wavelet Kernel is a signal processing function designed to decompose a signal into different frequency scales. Unlike a Fourier Transform that analyzes the entire signal at once, the wavelet slides across the data, providing information about both what frequencies are present and when they occurred.
The Kernels I Use:
Haar Kernel: The simplest wavelet, a square-wave shape defined by the coefficients . It excels at detecting sharp, sudden changes.
Daubechies 2 (db2) Kernel: A more complex and smoother wavelet shape that provides a better balance for analyzing the nuanced ebb and flow of typical market trends.
How it Works in the Script: This kernel is applied iteratively. It first separates the finest "noise" (detail d1) from the first level of trend (approximation a1). It then takes the trend a1 and repeats the process, extracting the next level of cycle (d2) and trend (a2), and so on. This hierarchical decomposition allows us to separate short-term noise from the long-term market "thesis."
2. The Hurst Exponent Kernel (The "Memory Gauge")
What it is: The Hurst Exponent is derived from a statistical analysis kernel that measures the "long-term memory" or persistence of a time series. It is the definitive measure of whether a series is trending (H > 0.5), mean-reverting (H < 0.5), or random (H = 0.5).
How it Works in the Script: The script employs a method based on Rescaled Range (R/S) analysis. It calculates the average range of price movements over increasingly larger time lags (m1, m2, m4, m8...). The slope of the line plotting log(range) vs. log(lag) is the Hurst Exponent. Applying this complex statistical analysis not to the raw price, but to the clean, wavelet-decomposed trend lines, is a key innovation of IGMD.
3. The Fractal Dimension Kernel (The "Complexity Compass")
What it is: This kernel measures the geometric complexity or "jaggedness" of a price path, based on the principles of fractal geometry. A straight line has a dimension of 1; a chaotic, space-filling line approaches a dimension of 2.
How it Works in the Script: We use a version based on Ehlers' Fractal Dimension Index (FDI). It calculates the rate of price change over a full lookback period (N3) and compares it to the sum of the rates of change over the two halves of that period (N1 + N2). The formula d = (log(N1 + N2) - log(N3)) / log(2) quantifies how much "longer" and more convoluted the price path was than a simple straight line. This kernel is our primary filter for tradeable (low complexity) vs. untradeable (high complexity) conditions.
4. The Shannon Entropy Kernel (The "Uncertainty Meter")
What it is: This kernel comes from Information Theory and provides the purest mathematical measure of information, surprise, or uncertainty within a system. It is not a measure of volatility; a market moving predictably up by 10 points every bar has high volatility but zero entropy .
How it Works in the Script: The script normalizes price returns by the ATR, categorizes them into a discrete number of "bins" over a lookback window, and forms a probability distribution. The Shannon Entropy H = -Σ(p_i * log(p_i)) is calculated from this distribution. A low H means returns are predictable. A high H means returns are chaotic. This kernel is our ultimate gauge of market conviction.
5. The Transfer Entropy Kernel (The "Causality Probe")
What it is: This is by far the most advanced and computationally intensive kernel in the script. Transfer Entropy is a non-parametric measure of directed information flow between two time series. It moves beyond correlation to ask: "Does knowing the past of Volume genuinely reduce our uncertainty about the future of Price?"
How it Works in the Script: To make this work, the script discretizes both price returns and the chosen "driver" (e.g., OBV) into three states: "up," "down," or "neutral." It then builds complex conditional probability tables to measure the flow of information in both directions. The Net Transfer Entropy (TE Driver→Price minus TE Price→Driver) gives us a direct measure of causality . A positive score means the driver is leading price, confirming the validity of the move. This is a profound leap beyond traditional indicator analysis.
Chapter 3: Fusion & Interpretation - The Field Score & Dashboard
Each kernel is a specialist providing a piece of the puzzle. The Field Score is where they are fused into a single, comprehensive reading. It's a weighted sum of the normalized scores from all five kernels, producing a single number from -1 (maximum bearish information field) to +1 (maximum bullish information field). This is the ultimate "at-a-glance" metric for the market's net state, and it is interpreted through the dashboard.
The Dashboard: Your Mission Control
Field Score & Regime: The master metric and its plain-English interpretation ("Uptrend Field", "Downtrend Field", "Transitional").
Kernel Readouts (Wave Align, H(w), FDI, etc.): The live scores of each individual kernel. This allows you to see why the Field Score is what it is. A high Field Score with all components in agreement (all green or red) is a state of High Coherence and represents a high-quality setup.
Market Context: Standard metrics like RSI and Volume for additional confluence.
Signals: The raw and adjusted confluence counts and the final, calculated probability scores for potential long and short entries.
Pattern: Shows the dominant candlestick pattern detected within the currently forming APEX range box and its calculated confidence percentage.
Chapter 4: Mastering the Controls - The Inputs Menu
Every parameter is a lever to fine-tune the IGMD engine.
📊 Wavelet Transform: Kernel ( Haar for sharp moves, db2 for smooth trends) and Scales (depth of analysis) let you tune the script's core microscope to your asset's personality.
📈 Hurst Exponent: The Window determines if you're assessing short-term or long-term market memory.
🔍 Fractal Dimension & ⚡ Entropy Volatility: Adjust the lookback windows to make these kernels more or less sensitive to recent price action. Always keep "Normalize by ATR" enabled for Entropy for consistent results.
🔄 Transfer Entropy: Driver lets you choose what causal force to measure (e.g., OBV, Volume, or even an external symbol like VIX). The throttle setting is a crucial performance tool, allowing you to balance precision with script speed.
⚡ Field Fusion • Weights: This is where you can customize the model's "brain." Increase the weights for the kernels that best align with your trading philosophy (e.g., w_hurst for trend followers, w_fdi for chop avoiders).
📊 Signal Engine: Mode offers presets from Conservative to Aggressive . Min Confluence sets your evidence threshold. Dynamic Confluence is a powerful feature that automatically adapts this threshold to the market regime.
🎨 Visuals & 📏 Support/Resistance: These inputs give you full control over the chart's appearance, allowing you to toggle every visual element for a setup that is as clean or as data-rich as you desire.
Chapter 5: Reading the Battlefield - On-Chart Visuals
Pattern Boxes (The Large Rectangles): These are not simple range boxes. They appear when the Field Score crosses a significance threshold, signaling a potential ignition point.
Color: The color reflects the dominant candlestick pattern that has occurred within that box's duration (e.g., green for Bull Engulf).
Label: Displays the dominant pattern, its duration in bars, and a calculated Confidence % based on field strength and pattern clarity.
Bar Pattern Boxes (The Small Boxes): If enabled, these highlight individual, significant candlestick patterns ( BE for Bull Engulf, H for Hammer) on a bar-by-bar basis.
Signal Markers (▲ and ▼): These appear only when the Signal Engine's criteria are all met. The number is the calculated Probability Score .
RR Rails (Dashed Lines): When a signal appears, these lines automatically plot the Entry, Stop Loss (based on ATR), and two Take Profit targets (based on Risk/Reward ratios). They dynamically break and disappear as price touches each level.
Support & Resistance Lines: Plots of the highest high ( Resistance ) and lowest low ( Support ) over a lookback, providing key structural levels.
Chapter 6: Development Philosophy & A Final Word
One single question: " What is the market really doing? " It represents a triumph of complexity, blending concepts from signal processing, chaos theory, and information theory into a cohesive framework. It is offered for educational and analytical purposes and does not constitute financial advice. Its goal is to elevate your analysis from interpreting flat shadows to measuring the rich, geometric reality of the market's information field.
As the great mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot , father of fractal geometry, noted:
"Clouds are not spheres, mountains are not cones, coastlines are not circles, and bark is not smooth, nor does lightning travel in a straight line."
Neither does the market. IGMD is a tool designed to navigate that beautiful, complex, and fractal reality.

Advanced Market TheoryADVANCED MARKET THEORY (AMT)
This is not an indicator. It is a lens through which to see the true nature of the market.
Welcome to the definitive application of Auction Market Theory. What you have before you is the culmination of decades of market theory, fused with state-of-the-art data analysis and visual engineering. It is an institutional-grade intelligence engine designed for the serious trader who seeks to move beyond simplistic indicators and understand the fundamental forces that drive price.
This guide is your complete reference. Read it. Study it. Internalize it. The market is a complex story, and this tool is the language with which to read it.
PART I: THE GRAND THEORY - A UNIVERSE IN AN AUCTION
To understand the market, you must first understand its purpose. The market is a mechanism of discovery, organized by a continuous, two-way auction.
This foundational concept was pioneered by the legendary trader J. Peter Steidlmayer at the Chicago Board of Trade in the 1980s. He observed that beneath the chaotic facade of ticking prices lies a beautifully organized structure. The market's primary function is not to go up or down, but to facilitate trade by seeking a price level that encourages the maximum amount of interaction between buyers and sellers. This price is "value."
The Organizing Principle: The Normal Distribution
Over any given period, the market's activity will naturally form a bell curve (a normal distribution) turned on its side. This is the blueprint of the auction.
The Point of Control (POC): This is the peak of the bell curve—the single price level where the most trade occurred. It represents the point of maximum consensus, the "fairest price" as determined by the market participants. It is the gravitational center of the session.
The Value Area (VA): This is the heart of the bell curve, typically containing 70% of the session's activity (one standard deviation). This is the zone of "accepted value." Prices within this area are considered fair and are where the market is most comfortable conducting business.
The Extremes: The thin areas at the top and bottom of the curve are the "unfair" prices. These are levels where one side of the auction (buyers at the top, sellers at the bottom) was shut off, and trade was quickly rejected. These are areas of emotional trading and excess.
The Narrative of the Day: Balance vs. Imbalance
Every trading session is a story of the market's search for value.
Balance: When the market rotates and builds a symmetrical, bell-shaped profile, it is in a state of balance . Buyers and sellers are in agreement, and the market is range-bound.
Imbalance: When the market moves decisively away from a balanced area, it is in a state of imbalance . This is a trend. The market is actively seeking new information and a new area of value because the old one was rejected.
Your Purpose as a Trader
Your job is to read this story in real-time. Are we in balance or imbalance? Is the auction succeeding or failing at these new prices? The Advanced Market Theory engine is your Rosetta Stone to translate this complex narrative into actionable intelligence.
PART II: THE AMT ENGINE - AN EVOLUTION IN MARKET VISION
A standard market profile tool shows you a picture. The AMT Engine gives you the architect's full schematics, the engineer's stress tests, and the psychologist's behavioral analysis, all at once.
This is what makes it the Advanced Market Theory. We have fused the timeless principles with layers of modern intelligence:
TRINITY ANALYSIS: You can view the market through three distinct lenses. A Volume Profile shows where the money traded. A TPO (Time) Profile shows where the market spent its time. The revolutionary Hybrid Profile fuses both, giving you a complete picture of market conviction—marrying volume with duration.
AUTOMATED STRUCTURAL DECODING: The engine acts as your automated analyst, identifying critical structural phenomena in real-time:
Poor Highs/Lows: Weak auction points that signal a high probability of reversal.
Single Prints & Ledges: Footprints of rapid, aggressive market moves and areas of strong institutional acceptance.
Day Type Classification: The engine analyzes the session's personality as it develops ("Trend Day," "Normal Day," etc.), allowing you to adapt your strategy to the market's current character.
MACRO & MICRO FUSION: Via the Composite Profile , the engine merges weeks of data to reveal the major institutional battlegrounds that govern long-term price action. You can see the daily skirmish and the multi-month war on a single chart.
ORDER FLOW INTELLIGENCE: The ultimate advancement is the integrated Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) engine. This moves beyond structure to analyze the raw aggression of buyers versus sellers. It is your window into the market's soul, automatically detecting critical Divergences that often precede major trend shifts.
ADAPTIVE SIGNALING: The engine's signal generation is not static; it is a thinking system. It evaluates setups based on a multi-factor Confluence Score , understands the market Regime (e.g., High Volatility), and adjusts its own confidence ( Probability % ) based on the complete context.
This is not a tool that gives you signals. This is a tool that gives you understanding .
PART III: THE VISUAL KEY - A LEXICON OF MARKET STRUCTURE
Every element on your chart is a piece of information. This is your guide to reading it fluently.
--- THE CORE ARCHITECTURE ---
The Profile Histogram: The primary visual on the left of each session. Its shape is the story. A thin profile is a trend; a fat, symmetrical profile is balance.
Blue Box : The zone of accepted, "fair" value. The heart of the session's business.
Bright Orange Line & Label : The Point of Control. The gravitational center. The price of maximum consensus. The most significant intraday level.
Dashed Blue Lines & Labels : The boundaries of value. Critical inflection points where the market decides to either remain in balance or seek value elsewhere.
Dashed Cyan Lines & Labels : The major, long-term structural levels derived from weeks of data. These are institutional reference points and carry immense weight. Treat them as primary support and resistance.
Dashed Orange Lines & Labels : Marks a Poor or Unfinished Auction . These represent emotional, weak extremes and are high-probability targets for future price action.
Diamond Markers : Mark Single Prints , which are footprints of aggressive, one-sided moves that left a "liquidity vacuum." Price is often drawn back to these levels to "repair" the poor structure.
Arrow Markers : Mark Ledges , which are areas of strong horizontal acceptance. They often act as powerful support/resistance in the future.
Dotted Gray Lines & Labels : The projected daily range based on multiples of the Initial Balance . Use them to set realistic profit targets and gauge the day's potential.
--- THE SIGNAL SUITE ---
Colored Triangles : These are your high-probability entry signals. The color is a strategic playbook:
Gold Triangle : ELITE Signal. An A+ setup with overwhelming confluence. This is the highest quality signal the engine can produce.
Yellow Triangle : FADE Signal. A counter-trend setup against an exhausted move at a structural extreme.
Cyan Triangle : BREAKOUT Signal. A momentum setup attempting to capitalize on a breakout from the value area.
Purple Triangle : ROTATION Signal. A mean-reversion setup within the value area, typically from one edge towards the POC.
Magenta Triangle : LIQUIDITY Signal. A sophisticated setup that identifies a "stop run" or liquidity sweep.
Percentage Number: The engine's calculated probability of success . This is not a guarantee, but a data-driven confidence score.
Dotted Gray Line: The signal's Entry Price .
Dashed Green Lines: The calculated Take Profit Targets .
Dashed Red Line: The calculated Stop Loss level.
PART IV: THE DASHBOARD - YOUR STRATEGIC COMMAND CENTER
The dashboard is your real-time intelligence briefing. It synthesizes all the engine's analysis into a clear, concise, and constantly updating summary.
--- CURRENT SESSION ---
POC, VAH, VAL: The live values for the core structure.
Profile Shape: Is the current auction top-heavy ( b-shaped ), bottom-heavy ( P-shaped ), or balanced ( D-shaped )?
VA Width: Is the value area expanding (trending) or contracting (balancing)?
Day Type: The engine's judgment on the day's personality. Use this to select the right strategy.
IB Range & POC Trend: Key metrics for understanding the opening sentiment and its evolution.
--- CVD ANALYSIS ---
Session CVD: The raw order flow. Is there more net buying or selling pressure in this session?
CVD Trend & DIVERGENCE: This is your order flow intelligence. Is the order flow confirming the price action? If "DIVERGENCE" flashes, it is a critical, high-alert warning of a potential reversal.
--- MARKET METRICS ---
Volume, ATR, RSI: Your standard contextual metrics, providing a quick read on activity, volatility, and momentum.
Regime: The engine's assessment of the broad market environment: High Volatility (favor breakouts), Low Volatility (favor mean reversion), or Normal .
--- PROFILE STATS, COMPOSITE, & STRUCTURE ---
These sections give you a quick quantitative summary of the profile structure, the major long-term Composite levels, and any active Poor Structures.
--- SIGNAL TYPES & ACTIVE SIGNAL ---
A permanent key to the signal colors and their meanings, along with the full details of the most recent active signal: its Type , Probability , Entry , Stop , and Target .
PART V: THE INPUTS MENU - CALIBRATING YOUR LENS
This engine is designed to be calibrated to your specific needs as a trader. Every input is a lever. This is not a "one size fits all" tool. The extensive tooltips are your built-in user manual, but here are the key areas of focus:
--- MARKET PROFILE ENGINE ---
Profile Mode: This is the most fundamental choice. Volume is the standard for price-based support and resistance. TPO is for analyzing time-based acceptance. Hybrid is the professional's choice, fusing both for a complete picture.
Profile Resolution: This is your zoom lens. Lower values for scalping and intraday precision. Higher values for a cleaner, big-picture view suitable for swing trading.
Composite Sessions: Your timeframe for macro analysis. 5-10 sessions for a weekly view; 20-30 sessions for a monthly, structural view.
--- SESSION & VALUE AREA ---
These settings must be configured correctly for your specific asset. The Session times are critical. The Initial Balance should reflect the key opening period for your market (60 minutes is standard for equities).
--- SIGNAL ENGINE & RISK MANAGEMENT ---
Signal Mode: THIS IS YOUR PERSONAL RISK PROFILE. Set it to Conservative to see only the absolute best A+ setups. Use Elite or Balanced for a standard approach. Use Aggressive only if you are an experienced scalper comfortable with managing more frequent, lower-probability setups.
ATR Multipliers: This suite gives you full, dynamic control over your risk/reward parameters. You can precisely define your initial stop loss distance and profit targets based on the market's current volatility.
A FINAL WORD FROM THE ARCHITECT
The creation of this engine was a journey into the very heart of market dynamics. It was born from a frustrating truth: that the most profound market theories were often confined to books and expensive institutional platforms, inaccessible to the modern retail trader. The goal was to bridge that gap.
The challenge was monumental. Making each discrete system—the volume profile, the TPO counter, the composite engine, the CVD tracker, the signal generator, the dynamic dashboard—work was a task in itself. But the true struggle, the frustrating, painstaking process that consumed countless hours, was making them work in unison . It was about ensuring the CVD analysis could intelligently inform the signal engine, that the day type classification could adjust the probability scores, and that the composite levels could provide context to the intraday structure, all in a seamless, real-time dance of data.
This engine is the result of that relentless pursuit of integration. It is built on the belief that a trader's greatest asset is not a signal, but clarity . It was designed to clear the noise, to organize the chaos, and to present the elegant, underlying logic of the market auction so that you can make better, more informed, and more confident decisions.
It is now in your hands. Use it not as a crutch, but as a lens. See the market for what it truly is.
"The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent."

Harmonic BloomHarmonic Bloom - Advanced Geometric Analysis
Building upon my previous Fibonacci inspired indicator "TrendZone", Harmonic Bloom is a sophisticated geometric trading indicator inspired by W.D. Gann's legendary market geometry principles. It reveals market structure through three key pivot points and dynamic angular analysis, creating powerful harmonic intersections for precision trading.
🎯 Core Features:
📍 Three-Point Gann System:
Set 3 custom pivot points to define your analysis timeframe
Automatic trend detection (bullish/bearish) between pivots
Dynamic geometric box construction following Gann's square principles
📐 Gann-Style 45° Angle Projections:
Pivot 2 Line: Follows trend direction (up if bullish, down if bearish)
Pivot 3 Line: Creates opposition (opposite direction to Pivot 2)
Corner Line: Mirrors Pivot 2 from appropriate box corner
All angles project forward using Gann's 1x1 (45°) methodology for future price targets
⚡ POWER OF HARMONIC INTERSECTIONS:
Confluence Zones: Where multiple 45° angles intersect create the strongest support/resistance
Geometric Harmony: Intersections represent natural market turning points
Time-Price Balance: Following Gann's principle that time and price must be in harmony
Multiple Timeframe Resonance: Intersection points often align across different timeframes
High-Probability Reversals: Markets frequently respect these geometric intersection levels
📊 Customizable Retracement Levels:
8 fully configurable levels (default: 0.0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75)
Choose between 25% or 50% trendline alignment
Individual style controls for each level
🔢 Advanced Gann Analytics:
Fibonacci sequence detection in bar counts (Gann studied natural number sequences)
Numerology sum analysis on pivot prices (Gann's mystical number approach)
Special highlighting for significant numbers
Optional on-chart labels for key metrics
📈 Trading Applications:
✅ Support/Resistance: Use retracement levels for entry/exit points
✅ Gann Angles: 45° lines show momentum direction and strength following Gann's time-price theory
✅ Intersection Trading: Most powerful signals occur at harmonic intersections where multiple angles converge
✅ Price Targets: Forward projections provide future price objectives using Gann's geometric principles
✅ Market Geometry: Identify harmonic patterns and geometric confluences
✅ Time Analysis: Fibonacci-based bar counting for timing decisions (Gann emphasized time cycles)
🌟 Why Harmonic Intersections Are So Powerful:
Gann believed that markets move in geometric harmony, and when multiple angles intersect, they create "magnetic price levels" where:
Maximum Energy Convergence: Multiple geometric forces meet at one point
Natural Turning Points: Markets respect these intersections as natural support/resistance
Time-Price Synchronicity: Intersections often coincide with significant time cycles
Multi-Dimensional Confirmation: Price, time, and geometry align simultaneously
⚙️ Highly Customizable:
All colors, widths, and styles adjustable
Toggle any feature on/off independently
Extend projections beyond the analysis box
Choose your preferred visual presentation
Perfect for traders who use Gann theory, geometric analysis, harmonic patterns, and mathematical market structure. The true power lies in trading the intersection points where multiple harmonic angles converge - these represent the market's most significant geometric turning points.
Combined Predictive Indicator### Combined Predictive Zones & Levels
This indicator is a powerful hybrid tool designed to provide a comprehensive map of potential future price action. It merges two distinct predictive models into a single, cohesive view, helping traders identify key levels of support, resistance, and areas of high confluence.
#### How It Works: Two Models in One
This script is built on two core components that you can use together or analyze separately:
**Part 1: Classic Range & Fibonacci Prediction**
This model uses classic technical analysis principles to project a potential range for the upcoming price action.
* **Highest High / Lowest Low:** It identifies the significant trading range over a user-defined lookback period.
* **Fibonacci Levels:** It automatically plots key Fibonacci retracement levels (e.g., 38.2% and 61.8%) within this range, which often act as critical support or resistance.
* **ATR & Average Range:** It calculates a "predicted" upper and lower boundary based on the average historical range and current volatility (ATR).
**Part 2: Advanced Predictive Ranges (Self-Adjusting Channels)**
This is a dynamic model that creates adaptive support and resistance zones based on a smoothed average price and volatility.
* **Dynamic Average:** It uses a unique moving average that only adjusts when the price moves significantly, creating a stable baseline.
* **ATR-Based Zones:** It projects multiple levels of support (S1, S2) and resistance (R1, R2) around this average, which widen and narrow based on market volatility. These zones often signal areas where price might stall or reverse.
#### Key Features:
* **Hybrid Model for Confluence:** The true power of this indicator lies in finding where the levels from both models overlap. A Fibonacci level aligning with a Predictive Range support zone is a much stronger signal.
* **Comprehensive Data Table:** A clean, on-chart table displays the precise values of all key predictive levels, allowing for quick reference and precise trade planning.
* **Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Capability:** The Advanced Predictive Ranges can be calculated on a higher timeframe, giving you a broader market context.
* **Fully Customizable:** All lengths, multipliers, and levels for both models are fully adjustable in the settings to fit any asset or trading style.
* **Clear Visuals:** All zones and levels are color-coded for intuitive and easy-to-read analysis.
#### How to Use:
1. Look for areas of **confluence** where multiple levels from both models cluster together. These are high-probability zones for price reactions.
2. Use the Predictive Range zones (S1/S2 and R1/R2) as potential targets for trades or as areas to watch for entries and exits.
3. Pay attention to the on-chart table for exact price levels to set limit orders or stop-losses.
**Disclaimer:** This script is an analytical tool for educational purposes and should not be considered financial advice. All trading involves risk. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use this indicator as part of a comprehensive trading strategy with proper risk management.

TREV Candles - Range-Based Trend ReversalTREV Candles - Range-Based Trend Reversal Chart Implementation
What is a Trend Reversal (TREV) Chart?
A Trend Reversal chart, also known as a Point & Figure chart variation, is a unique charting method that focuses on price movement thresholds rather than time intervals. Unlike traditional candlestick charts where each candle represents a fixed time period, TREV candles form only when price moves by predefined amounts in ticks.
TREV charts eliminate time-based noise and focus purely on significant price movements, making them ideal for identifying genuine trend changes and continuation patterns.
How TREV Candles Work
This indicator implements true TREV logic with two critical thresholds:
Trend Size: The number of ticks price must move in the current direction to form a trend continuation candle
Reversal Size: The number of ticks price must move against the current direction to form a reversal candle and change the overall trend direction
Key TREV Rules Enforced:
Direction Changes Only Through Reversals: You cannot go from bullish trend directly to bearish trend - a reversal candle must occur first
Threshold-Based Formation: Candles form only when price thresholds are breached, not on time
Logical Wick Placement: Wicks only appear on the "open" side of candles where price temporarily moved against the formation direction
Multiple Candles Per Bar: When price moves significantly, several TREV candles can form within a single time-based bar
Four Distinct Candle Types
Bullish Trend (Green): Continues upward movement when trend threshold is hit
Bearish Trend (Red): Continues downward movement when trend threshold is hit
Bullish Reversal (Blue): Changes from bearish to bullish direction when reversal threshold is breached
Bearish Reversal (Orange): Changes from bullish to bearish direction when reversal threshold is breached
Practical Trading Applications
Trend Identification: Clear visual representation of when trends are continuing vs. reversing
Noise Reduction: Filters out insignificant price movements that don't meet threshold requirements
Support/Resistance: TREV levels often act as significant support and resistance zones
Breakout Confirmation: When price forms multiple trend candles in succession, it confirms strong directional movement
Reversal Signals: Reversal candles provide early warning of potential trend changes
Technical Implementation Features
Intelligent Price Path Processing: Analyzes the assumed price path within each bar (Low→High→Close for bullish bars, High→Low→Close for bearish bars)
Automatic Tick Size Detection: Works with any instrument by automatically detecting the correct tick size
Manual Override Option: Allows manual tick size specification for custom analysis
Impossible Scenario Prevention: Built-in logic prevents impossible wick configurations and direction changes
PineScript Optimization: Efficient state management and drawing limits handling for smooth performance
Comprehensive Styling Options
Each of the four candle types offers complete visual customization:
Body Colors: Independent color settings for each candle type's body
Border Colors: Separate border color customization
Border Styles: Choose from solid, dashed, or dotted borders
Wick Colors: Individual wick color settings for each candle type
Default Color Scheme:
🟢 Bullish Trend: Green body and wicks
🔵 Bullish Reversal: Blue body and wicks
🔴 Bearish Trend: Red body and wicks
🟠 Bearish Reversal: Orange body and wicks
Configuration Guidelines
Trend Size: Larger values create fewer, more significant trend candles. Smaller values increase sensitivity
Reversal Size: Should typically be smaller than trend size. Controls how easily the trend direction can change
Tick Size: Use "auto" for most instruments. Manual override useful for custom point values or backtesting
Ideal Use Cases
Swing Trading: Identify major trend changes and continuation patterns
Scalping: Use smaller thresholds to catch quick reversals and momentum shifts
Position Trading: Use larger thresholds to filter noise and focus on major trend moves
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Compare TREV patterns across different threshold settings
Support/Resistance Trading: TREV close levels often become significant price zones
Why This Implementation is Superior
True TREV Logic: Enforces proper trend reversal rules that many implementations ignore
No Impossible Scenarios: Prevents wicks on both sides of candles and impossible direction changes
Professional Visualization: Clean, customizable appearance suitable for serious analysis
Performance Optimized: Handles large datasets without lag or drawing limit issues
Educational Value: Helps traders understand the difference between time-based and threshold-based charting
Perfect for traders who want to see beyond time-based noise and focus on what price is actually doing - moving in significant, measurable amounts that matter for trading decisions.
Ultimate JLines & MTF EMA (Configurable, Labels)## Ultimate JLines & MTF EMA (Configurable, Labels) — Script Overview
This Pine Script is a comprehensive, multi-timeframe indicator based on J Trader concepts. It overlays various Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), VWAP, inside bar highlights, and dynamic labels onto price charts. The script is highly configurable, allowing users to tailor which elements are displayed and how they appear.
### Key Features
#### 1. **Multi-Timeframe JLines**
- **JLines** are pairs of EMAs (default lengths: 72 and 89) calculated on several timeframes:
- 1 minute (1m)
- 3 minutes (3m)
- 5 minutes (5m)
- 1 hour (1h)
- Custom timeframe (user-selectable)
- Each pair can be visualized as individual lines and as a "cloud" (shaded area between the two EMAs).
- Colors and opacity for each timeframe are user-configurable.
#### 2. **200 EMA on Multiple Timeframes**
- Plots the 200-period EMA on selectable timeframes: 1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, and 1h.
- Each can be toggled independently and colored as desired.
#### 3. **9 EMA and VWAP**
- Plots a 9-period EMA, either on the chart’s current timeframe or a user-specified one.
- Plots VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) for additional trend context.
#### 4. **5/15 EMA Cross Cloud (5min)**
- Calculates and optionally displays a shaded "cloud" between the 5-period and 15-period EMAs on the 5-minute chart.
- Highlights bullish (5 EMA above 15 EMA) and bearish (5 EMA below 15 EMA) conditions with different colors.
- Optionally displays the 5 and 15 EMA lines themselves.
#### 5. **Inside Bar Highlighting**
- Highlights bars where the current high is less than or equal to the previous high and the low is greater than or equal to the previous low (inside bars).
- Color is user-configurable.
#### 6. **9 EMA / VWAP Cross Arrows**
- Plots up/down arrows when the 9 EMA crosses above or below the VWAP.
- Arrow colors and visibility are configurable.
#### 7. **Dynamic Labels**
- On the most recent bar, displays labels for each enabled line (EMAs, VWAP), offset to the right for clarity.
- Labels include the timeframe, type, and current value.
### Customization Options
- **Visibility:** Each plot (line, cloud, arrow, label) can be individually toggled on/off.
- **Colors:** All lines, clouds, and arrows can be colored to user preference, including opacity for clouds.
- **Timeframes:** JLines and EMAs can be calculated on different timeframes, including a custom one.
- **Label Text:** Labels dynamically reflect current indicator values and are color-coded to match their lines.
### Technical Implementation Highlights
- **Helper Functions:** Functions abstract away the logic for multi-timeframe EMA calculation.
- **Security Calls:** Uses `request.security` to fetch data from other timeframes, ensuring accurate multi-timeframe plotting.
- **Efficient Label Management:** Deletes old labels and creates new ones only on the last bar to avoid clutter and maintain performance.
- **Conditional Plotting:** All visual elements are conditionally plotted based on user input, making the indicator highly flexible.
### Use Cases
- **Trend Identification:** Multiple EMAs and VWAP help traders quickly identify trend direction and strength across timeframes.
- **Support/Resistance:** 200 EMA and JLines often act as dynamic support/resistance levels.
- **Entry/Exit Signals:** Crosses between 9 EMA and VWAP, as well as 5/15 EMA clouds, can signal potential trade entries or exits.
- **Pattern Recognition:** Inside bar highlights aid in spotting consolidation and breakout patterns.

Drunken Bird Inspiration for the support and resistance plateau lines came from AnotherDAPTrader.
The TSL Drunken Bird is an enhanced technical analysis tool for swing traders on TradingView, based on the original Accurate Swing Trading System by ceyhun. It generates buy and sell signals when price crosses a dynamic Trailing Stop Loss (TSL) level derived from recent highs and lows. This version introduces plateau detection for support and resistance lines, dynamic label expiration to reduce clutter, customizable line styles and decay, and improved HTF confluence for trend-aligned trading. Visual elements include signal labels, horizontal lines, a colored TSL plot, and optional bar/background coloring. Alerts are available for buy/sell crossovers, making it suitable for assets like NASDAQ E-mini futures, stocks, forex, and more.
This script adapts and expands upon ceyhun's original codetradingview.com, adding significant features such as tolerance-based plateau identification for support/resistance, label management with timeframe-aware expiration (~7 days), cross-count decay for lines, and expanded customization options. Inspiration for the support and resistance plateau lines came from AnotherDAPTrader. Released under the Mozilla Public License 2.0.Key

Manual or alert-based trading on futures, stocks, or forex.
Why It's Valuable
This indicator builds on ceyhun's core TSL logic with practical enhancements for modern trading: clutter reduction via expiration/decay, visual customization, and plateau-based S/R for better context. It promotes disciplined, trend-aware decisions while maintaining simplicity.
Note: Optimized for any timeframe/asset; test in demo. Not financial advice—use with risk management.
EMA/SMA Distance Percentage TableThis TradingView indicator, "EMA/SMA Distance Percentage Table," is designed to help traders and analysts quickly assess the current price's relationship to key Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and Simple Moving Averages (SMAs).
Here's a breakdown of what it does:
Calculates Multiple Moving Averages: It computes EMAs for lengths 10, 30, 50, and 200, and SMAs for lengths 50 and 200. These are commonly used moving averages in technical analysis.
Measures Percentage Distance: For each of these moving averages, it calculates the percentage difference between the current closing price and the moving average's value. This indicates how far, in percentage terms, the price has deviated from that average. A positive percentage means the price is above the MA, while a negative percentage means it's below.
Displays Data in a Table: All the calculated information (MA type and length, its current value, and the percentage distance) is presented in a clear, organized table on the chart. This allows for quick at-a-glance monitoring.
Customizable Visibility: Users have the flexibility to show or hide the plots of the EMAs and SMAs on the chart, as well as the entire data table, through the indicator's settings.
Purpose:
The primary purpose of this indicator is to provide a concise overview of price momentum and potential overbought/oversold conditions relative to various moving averages. Traders often use the distance from MAs to:
Identify Trend Strength: A large distance from a long-term MA might suggest a strong trend.
Spot Potential Reversals: If the price is significantly extended from an MA, it might indicate that a pullback or reversal is due.
Confirm Support/Resistance: Moving averages often act as dynamic support or resistance levels, and their distance can provide context.
In essence, it helps you quickly see if the price is "stretched" or "compressed" relative to its historical averages, which can be valuable for making trading decisions.
Absorption DetectorABSORPTION DETECTOR -
The Absorption Detector identifies institutional order flow by detecting "absorption" patterns where smart money quietly accumulates or distributes positions by absorbing retail order flow. This creates high-probability support and resistance zones for trading. This is an approximation only and does not read any footprint data.
WHAT IS ABSORPTION?
Absorption occurs when institutions take the opposite side of retail trades, creating specific candlestick patterns with high volume and significant wicks. The indicator identifies two main patterns:
SELLING ABSORPTION (P-Pattern): Red zones above candles where institutions sell into retail buying pressure, creating resistance levels. Look for high volume candles with large upper wicks that close in the lower half.
BUYING ABSORPTION (B-Pattern): Green zones below candles where institutions buy from retail selling pressure, creating support levels. Look for high volume candles with large lower wicks that close in the upper half.
KEY FEATURES
- Automatic detection of institutional absorption patterns
- Dynamic support and resistance zone creation
- Customizable styling for all visual elements
- Historic zone display for backtesting analysis
- Strength-based filtering to show only high-probability setups
- Real-time alerts for new absorption patterns
- Professional info panel with key statistics
- Multi-timeframe compatibility
MAIN SETTINGS
Volume Threshold (1.2): Minimum volume surge required compared to average. Higher values = fewer but stronger signals.
Minimum Volume (2500): Absolute volume floor to prevent signals during low-volume periods.
Min Wick Size (0.2): Minimum wick size as ATR multiple. Ensures significant rejection occurred.
Minimum Strength (1.5): Combined volume and wick strength filter. Higher values = higher quality signals.
Show Historic Zones (OFF): Enable to see all historical zones for backtesting. Disable for better performance.
Zone Extension (20): How many bars to project zones forward for anticipating future reactions.
TRADING APPROACH
ZONE REACTION STRATEGY: Wait for price to approach absorption zones and trade the bounce or rejection. Use the zones as dynamic support and resistance levels.
BREAKOUT STRATEGY: Trade decisive breaks of strong absorption zones with proper risk management. Failed zones often lead to strong moves.
CONFLUENCE TRADING: Combine absorption zones with other technical analysis for highest probability setups. Look for alignment with trend lines, Fibonacci levels, and key support/resistance.
RISK MANAGEMENT: Always use stop losses beyond the absorption zones. Target minimum 1:2 risk-reward ratios. Position size appropriately based on zone strength.
OPTIMIZATION GUIDE
For Conservative Trading (fewer, higher quality signals):
- Volume Threshold: 1.5
- Minimum Strength: 2.0
- Min Wick Size: 0.3
For Aggressive Trading (more signals, requires careful filtering):
- Volume Threshold: 1.1
- Minimum Strength: 1.0
- Min Wick Size: 0.15
BEST PRACTICES
Markets: Works best on liquid instruments with good volume - major forex pairs, popular stocks, liquid futures, and established cryptocurrencies.
Timeframes: Effective on all timeframes from 1-minute scalping to daily swing trading. Adjust settings based on your timeframe and trading style.
Confirmation: Never trade absorption signals in isolation. Always combine with trend analysis, market structure, and proper risk management.
Session Timing: Be aware of market sessions and avoid trading during low liquidity periods or major news events.
Backtesting: Use the historic zones feature to validate performance on your chosen market and timeframe before live trading.
CUSTOMIZATION
The indicator offers complete visual customization including zone colors, border styles, label appearances, and info panel positioning. All colors can be adapted to match your chart theme and personal preferences.
Alert system provides both basic and custom message alerts for real-time notifications of new absorption patterns.
PERFORMANCE NOTES
Default settings are optimized for most markets and timeframes. For best performance on older charts, keep "Show Historic Zones" disabled unless specifically backtesting.
The indicator maintains excellent performance even with extensive historical analysis enabled, handling up to 500 zones and 100 labels for comprehensive backtesting.

สัญลักษณ์สัญญาณ (Signal Markers):
Bull 🔼 (สามเหลี่ยมขึ้นสีเขียว): คือสัญญาณ "เข้าซื้อ" (Long) จะปรากฏขึ้น ณ จุดที่ OBV ทะลุขึ้นไปเหนือกรอบด้านบนเป็นครั้งแรก
Bear 🔽 (สามเหลี่ยมลงสีแดง): คือสัญญาณ "เข้าขาย" (Short) จะปรากฏขึ้น ณ จุดที่ OBV ทะลุลงไปต่ำกว่ากรอบด้านล่างเป็นครั้งแรก
วิธีการใช้งาน (How to Use)
เพิ่มสคริปต์นี้ลงบนกราฟราคาที่คุณสนใจ

การตั้งค่า (Inputs)
SMA Length 1 / SMA Length 2: ใช้สำหรับพล็อตเส้นค่าเฉลี่ยของ OBV เพื่อดูเป็นภาพอ้างอิง ไม่มีผลต่อตรรกะการเข้า-ออกของ Strategy อันใหม่ แต่มันเป็นของเก่า ถ้าชอบ ก็ใช้ได้ เมื่อ SMA สองเส้นตัดกัน หรือตัดกับเส้น OBV
High/Low Lookback Length: (ค่าพื้นฐาน30/แก้ตรงนี้ให้เหมาะสมกับ coin หรือหุ้น ตามความผันผวน ) คือระยะเวลาที่ใช้ในการคำนวณกรอบสูงสุด-ต่ำสุดของ OBV
ค่าน้อย: ทำให้กรอบแคบลง สัญญาณจะเกิดไวและบ่อยขึ้น แต่อาจมีสัญญาณหลอก (False Signal) เยอะขึ้น
ค่ามาก: ทำให้กรอบกว้างขึ้น สัญญาณจะเกิดช้าลงและน้อยลง แต่มีแนวโน้มที่จะเป็นสัญญาณที่แข็งแกร่งกว่า
แน่นอนครับ นี่คือคำแปลฉบับภาษาอังกฤษที่สรุปใจความสำคัญ กระชับ และสุภาพ เหมาะสำหรับนำไปใช้ในคำอธิบายสคริปต์ (Description) ของ TradingView ครับ

OBV Breakout Channel Strategy
This script is an evolution of a traditional OBV+SMA Crossover concept. Through personal testing, the original crossover method was found to have unsatisfactory performance. This new strategy, therefore, uses a "Breakout" principle. The inspiration comes from using ATR to create price channels, but this concept has been adapted and applied to On-Balance Volume (OBV) instead.
Furthermore, the script has been converted into a full Strategy (with assistance from Gemini AI) to enable precise backtesting and performance evaluation.
The strategy's core principle is momentum-based: "once a trend is established, it is likely to continue." It seeks to enter trades on exceptionally strong breakouts of buying or selling pressure as measured by OBV.
Core Concept
This is a Strategy that uses On-Balance Volume (OBV), an indicator that measures cumulative buying and selling pressure. Instead of relying on a basic Simple Moving Average (SMA) Crossover, this strategy identifies a "Breakout" of the OBV from its own highest-high and lowest-low channel over a recent period.
Bull Signal: Occurs when the buying pressure (OBV) is strong enough to break above its own recent highest high, indicating a potential shift to an upward trend.
Bear Signal: Occurs when the selling pressure (OBV) is intense enough to push the OBV below its own recent lowest low, indicating a potential shift to a downward trend.
On-Screen Components
1. OBV Line
This is the main indicator line, representing the cumulative volume. Its color changes to green when OBV is rising and red when it is falling.
2. Dynamic Support & Resistance Line
This is the thick Green or Red line that appears based on the strategy's current "mode." This line serves as a dynamic support/resistance level and can be used as a reference for stop-loss placement.
Green Line (Support): Appears when the strategy enters "Bull Mode." This line represents the lowest low of the OBV in the recent past and acts as dynamic support.
Red Line (Resistance): Appears when the strategy enters "Bear Mode." This line represents the highest high of the OBV in the recent past and acts as dynamic resistance.
3. Signal Markers
Bull 🔼 (Green Up Triangle): This is the "Long Entry" signal. It appears at the moment the OBV first breaks out above its high-low channel.
Bear 🔽 (Red Down Triangle): This is the "Short Entry" signal. It appears at the moment the OBV first breaks down below its high-low channel.
How to Use
Add this script to the price chart of your choice.
Navigate to the "Strategy Tester" panel at the bottom of TradingView to view the backtesting results for the strategy on different assets and timeframes.
Use the "Bull" and "Bear" signals as aids in your trading decisions.
Disclaimer: No strategy is 100% perfect. This script should always be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis, such as price structure, key price-based support/resistance levels, and your own personal risk management rules.
Inputs
SMA Length 1 / SMA Length 2: These are used to plot moving averages on the OBV for visual reference. They are part of the legacy logic and do not affect the new breakout strategy. However, they are kept for traders who may wish to observe their crossovers for additional confirmation.
High/Low Lookback Length: (Most Important Setting) This determines the period used to calculate the highest-high and lowest-low OBV channel. (Default is 30; adjust this to suit the asset's volatility).
A smaller value: Creates a narrower channel, leading to more frequent and faster signals, but potentially more false signals.
A larger value: Creates a wider channel, leading to fewer and slower signals, which are likely to be more significant.
