Time-Based Fair Value Gaps (FVG) with Inversions (iFVG)Overview
The Time-Based Fair Value Gaps (FVG) with Inversions (iFVG) (ICT/SMT) indicator is a specialized tool designed for traders using Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodologies. Inspired by LuxAlgo's Fair Value Gap indicator, this script introduces significant enhancements by integrating ICT principles, focusing on precise time-based FVG detection, inversion tracking, and retest signals tailored for institutional trading strategies. Unlike LuxAlgo’s general FVG approach, this indicator filters FVGs within customizable 10-minute windows aligned with ICT’s macro timeframes and incorporates ICT-specific concepts like mitigation, liquidity grabs, and session-based gap prioritization.
This tool is optimized for 1–5 minute charts, though probably best for 1 minute charts, identifying bullish and bearish FVGs, tracking their mitigation into inverted FVGs (iFVGs) as key support/resistance zones, and generating retest signals with customizable “Close” or “Wick” confirmation. Features like ATR-based filtering, optional FVG labels, mitigation removal, and session-specific FVG detection (e.g., first FVG in AM/PM sessions) make it a powerful tool for ICT traders.
Originality and Improvements
While inspired by LuxAlgo’s FVG indicator (credit to LuxAlgo for their foundational work), this script significantly extends the original concept by:
1. Time-Based FVG Detection: Unlike LuxAlgo’s continuous FVG identification, this script filters FVGs within user-defined 10-minute windows each hour (:00–:10, :10–:20, etc.), aligning with ICT’s emphasis on specific periods of institutional activity, such as hourly opens/closes or kill zones (e.g., New York 7:00–11:00 AM EST). This ensures FVGs are relevant to high-probability ICT setups.
2. Session-Specific First FVG Option: A unique feature allows traders to display only the first FVG in ICT-defined AM (9:30–10:00 AM EST) or PM (1:30–2:00 PM EST) sessions, reflecting ICT’s focus on initial market imbalances during key liquidity events.
3. ICT-Driven Mitigation and Inversion Logic: The script tracks FVG mitigation (when price closes through a gap) and converts mitigated FVGs into iFVGs, which serve as ICT-style support/resistance zones. This aligns with ICT’s view that mitigated gaps become critical reversal points, unlike LuxAlgo’s simpler gap display.
4. Customizable Retest Signals: Retest signals for iFVGs are configurable for “Close” (conservative, requiring candle body confirmation) or “Wick” (faster, using highs/lows), catering to ICT traders’ need for precise entry timing during liquidity grabs or Judas swings.
5. ATR Filtering and Mitigation Removal: An optional ATR filter ensures only significant FVGs are displayed, reducing noise, while mitigation removal declutters the chart by removing filled gaps, aligning with ICT’s principle that mitigated gaps lose relevance unless inverted.
6. Timezone and Timeframe Safeguards: A timezone offset setting aligns FVG detection with EST for ICT’s New York-centric strategies, and a timeframe warning alerts users to avoid ≥1-hour charts, ensuring accuracy in time-based filtering.
These enhancements make the script a distinct tool that builds on LuxAlgo’s foundation while offering ICT traders a tailored, high-precision solution.
How It Works
FVG Detection
FVGs are identified when a candle’s low is higher than the high of two candles prior (bullish FVG) or a candle’s high is lower than the low of two candles prior (bearish FVG). Detection is restricted to:
• User-selected 10-minute windows (e.g., :00–:10, :50–:60) to capture ICT-relevant periods like hourly transitions.
• AM/PM session first FVGs (if enabled), focusing on 9:30–10:00 AM or 1:30–2:00 PM EST for key market opens.
An optional ATR filter (default: 0.25× ATR) ensures only gaps larger than the threshold are displayed, prioritizing significant imbalances.
Mitigation and Inversion
When price closes through an FVG (e.g., below a bullish FVG’s bottom), the FVG is mitigated and becomes an iFVG, plotted as a support/resistance zone. iFVGs are critical in ICT for identifying reversal points where institutional orders accumulate.
Retest Signals
The script generates signals when price retests an iFVG:
• Close: Triggers when the candle body confirms the retest (conservative, lower noise).
• Wick: Triggers when the candle’s high/low touches the iFVG (faster, higher sensitivity). Signals are visualized with triangular markers (▲ for bullish, ▼ for bearish) and can trigger alerts.
Visualization
• FVGs: Displayed as colored boxes (green for bullish, red for bearish) with optional “Bull FVG”/“Bear FVG” labels.
• iFVGs: Shown as extended boxes with dashed midlines, limited to the user-defined number of recent zones (default: 5).
• Mitigation Removal: Mitigated FVGs/iFVGs are removed (if enabled) to keep the chart clean.
How to Use
Recommended Settings
• Timeframe: Use 1–5 minute charts for precision, avoiding ≥1-hour timeframes (a warning label appears if misconfigured).
• Time Windows: Enable :00–:10 and :50–:60 for hourly open/close FVGs, or use the “Show only 1st presented FVG” option for AM/PM session focus.
• ATR Filter: Keep enabled (multiplier 0.25–0.5) for significant gaps; disable on 1-minute charts for more FVGs during volatility.
• Signal Preference: Use “Close” for conservative entries, “Wick” for aggressive setups.
• Timezone Offset: Set to -5 for EST (or -4 for EDT) to align with ICT’s New York session.
Trading Strategy
1. Macro Timeframes: Focus on New York (7:00–11:00 AM EST) or London (2:00–5:00 AM EST) kill zones for high institutional activity.
2. FVG Entries: Trade bullish FVGs as support in uptrends or bearish FVGs as resistance in downtrends, especially in :00–:10 or :50–:60 windows.
3. iFVG Retests: Enter on retest signals (▲/▼) during liquidity grabs or Judas swings, using “Close” for confirmation or “Wick” for speed.
4. Session FVGs: Use the “Show only 1st presented FVG” option to target the first gap in AM/PM sessions, often tied to ICT’s market maker algorithms.
5. Risk Management: Combine with ICT concepts like order blocks or breaker blocks for confluence, and set stops beyond FVG/iFVG boundaries.
Alerts
Set alerts for:
• “Bullish FVG Detected”/“Bearish FVG Detected”: New FVGs in selected windows.
• “Bullish Signal”/“Bearish Signal”: iFVG retest confirmations.
Settings Description
• Show Last (1–100, default: 5): Number of recent iFVGs to display. Lower values reduce clutter.
• Show only 1st presented FVG : Limits FVGs to the first in 9:30–10:00 AM or 1:30–2:00 PM EST sessions (overrides time window checkboxes).
• Time Window Checkboxes: Enable/disable FVG detection in 10-minute windows (:00–:10, :10–:20, etc.). All enabled by default.
• Signal Preference: “Close” (default) or “Wick” for iFVG retest signals.
• Use ATR Filter: Enables ATR-based size filtering (default: true).
• ATR Multiplier (0–∞, default: 0.25): Sets FVG size threshold (higher values = larger gaps).
• Remove Mitigated FVGs: Removes filled FVGs/iFVGs (default: true).
• Show FVG Labels: Displays “Bull FVG”/“Bear FVG” labels (default: true).
• Timezone Offset (-12 to 12, default: -5): Aligns time windows with EST.
• Colors: Customize bullish (green), bearish (red), and midline (gray) colors.
Why Use This Indicator?
This indicator empowers ICT traders with a tool that goes beyond generic FVG detection, offering precise, time-filtered gaps and inversion tracking aligned with institutional trading principles. By focusing on ICT’s macro timeframes, session-specific imbalances, and customizable signal logic, it provides a clear edge for scalping, swing trading, or reversal setups in high-liquidity markets.

Adaptive Freedom Machine w/labelsAdaptive Freedom Machine w/ Labels
Overview
The Adaptive Freedom Machine w/ Labels is a versatile Pine Script indicator designed to assist traders in identifying buy and sell opportunities across various market conditions (trending, ranging, or volatile). It combines Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), Relative Strength Index (RSI), Average True Range (ATR), and customizable time filters to generate actionable signals. The indicator overlays on the price chart, displaying EMAs, a dynamic cloud, scaled RSI levels, buy/sell signals, and market condition labels, making it suitable for swing trading, day trading, or scalping.
What It Does
This indicator generates buy and sell signals based on the interaction of two EMAs, filtered by RSI thresholds, ATR-based volatility, and user-defined time windows. It adapts to the selected market condition by adjusting EMA lengths, RSI thresholds, and trading hours. A dynamic cloud highlights trend direction or neutral zones, and candlestick bodies are colored in neutral conditions for clarity. A table displays real-time trend and volatility status.
How It Works
The indicator uses the following components:
EMAs: Two EMAs (short and long) are calculated on a user-selected timeframe (1, 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes). Their crossover or crossunder generates potential buy/sell signals, with lengths adjusted based on the market condition (e.g., longer EMAs for trending markets, shorter for ranging).
Dynamic Cloud: The area between the EMAs forms a cloud, colored green for uptrends, red for downtrends, or a user-defined color (default yellow) for neutral zones (when EMAs are close, determined by an ATR-based threshold). Users can widen the cloud for visibility.
RSI Filter: RSI is scaled to price levels and plotted on the chart (optional). Signals are filtered to ensure RSI is within user-defined buy/sell thresholds and not in overbought/oversold zones, with thresholds tailored to the market condition.
ATR Volatility Filter: An optional filter ensures signals occur during sufficient volatility (ATR(14) > SMA(ATR, 20)).
Time Filter: Signals are restricted to a user-defined or market-specific time window (e.g., 10:00–15:00 UTC for volatile markets), with an option for custom hours.
Visual Aids: Buy/sell signals appear as green triangles (buy) or red triangles (sell). Candlesticks in neutral zones are colored (default yellow). A table in the top-right corner shows the current trend (Uptrend, Downtrend, Neutral) and volatility (High or Low).
The indicator ensures compatibility with standard chart types (e.g., candlestick charts) to produce realistic signals, avoiding non-standard types like Heikin Ashi or Renko.
How to Use It
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to a candlestick or bar chart on TradingView.
Configure Settings:
Timeframe: Choose a timeframe (1, 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes) to align with your trading style.
Market Condition: Select one market condition (Trending, Ranging, or Volatile). Volatile is the default if none is selected. Only one condition can be active.
Filters:
Enable/disable the ATR volatility filter to trade only in high-volatility periods.
Enable the time filter and choose default hours (specific to the market condition) or set custom UTC hours.
Cloud Settings: Adjust the cloud width, neutral zone threshold, and color. Enable/disable the neutral cloud.
RSI Display: Toggle the scaled RSI and its thresholds on the chart.
Interpret Signals:
Buy Signal: A green triangle below the bar indicates a potential long entry (EMA crossover, RSI above buy threshold, within time window, and passing volatility filter).
Sell Signal: A red triangle above the bar indicates a potential short entry (EMA crossunder, RSI below sell threshold, within time window, and passing volatility filter).
Neutral Zone: Yellow candlesticks and cloud (if enabled) suggest a lack of clear trend; avoid trading or use for range-bound strategies.
Monitor the Table: Check the top-right table for real-time trend (Uptrend, Downtrend, Neutral) and volatility (High or Low) to confirm market context.
Unique Features
Adaptive Parameters: Automatically adjusts EMA lengths, RSI thresholds, and trading hours based on the selected market condition, reducing manual tweaking.
Neutral Zone Detection: Uses an ATR-based threshold to identify low-trend periods, helping traders avoid choppy markets.
Scaled RSI Visualization: Plots RSI and thresholds directly on the price chart, making it easier to assess momentum relative to price action.
Flexible Time Filtering: Supports both default and custom UTC-based trading windows, ideal for day traders targeting specific sessions.
Dynamic Cloud: Enhances trend visualization with customizable width and neutral zone coloring, improving readability.
Notes
Use on standard candlestick or bar charts to ensure realistic signals.
Test the indicator on a demo account to understand its behavior in your chosen market and timeframe.
Adjust settings to match your trading strategy, but avoid over-optimizing for past data.
The indicator is not a standalone system; combine it with other analysis (e.g., support/resistance, news events) for better results.
Limitations
Signals may lag in fast-moving markets due to EMA-based calculations.
Neutral zone detection may vary in extremely volatile or illiquid markets.
Time filters are UTC-based; ensure your platform’s timezone settings align.
This indicator is designed for traders seeking a customizable, trend-following tool that adapts to different market environments while providing clear visual cues and robust filtering.

Swing Trade TarayıcıSwing Trade Scanner (v6) User Guide
1. Purpose:
This TradingView indicator (written in Pine Script v6) is designed to help identify swing trading opportunities. It calculates an overall trend strength and direction score by combining multiple technical analyses for up to 20 financial assets (stocks, cryptocurrencies, forex, etc.) that you specify. It presents the results in a customizable table, allowing you to quickly scan the market.
2. Analyses Used and Their Roles:
By default, the indicator uses the following 4 main technical analyses:
EMA Crossover (Default: 9/21): Used to capture short-term trend direction and potential momentum shifts. When the fast EMA (9) crosses above the slow EMA (21), it's considered a bullish signal; when it crosses below, it's a bearish signal. It's often one of the main entry/exit triggers.
RSI (Relative Strength Index - Default: 14): Measures the speed of price movements to identify overbought (OB) and oversold (OS) conditions. Reversals from the OB zone can signal potential downturns, while reversals from the OS zone can signal potential upturns. It also provides insight into the strength of the momentum.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence - Default: 12, 26, 9): A trend-following momentum indicator. The relationship between the MACD line and the signal line (crossovers) and the state of the histogram (position relative to the zero line) are used to confirm momentum shifts and trend strength.
ADX/DI (Average Directional Index - Default: 14, 14): Measures the strength (ADX) and direction (+DI/-DI lines) of a trend. Its main role is to filter signals from other indicators. A trend is considered to exist if the ADX is above a certain threshold (e.g., 25). +DI above -DI indicates an uptrend, and the reverse indicates a downtrend.
3. Scoring System:
The indicator calculates an individual score for each analysis and then combines these scores using weights you define to create a final Trend Score:
Individual Scores: Each analysis (EMA, RSI, MACD, ADX/DI) generates a decimal score between -1.0 (Strong Negative/Bearish) and +1.0 (Strong Positive/Bullish) based on its own rules. For example, RSI might score +1.0 if oversold, -1.0 if overbought, and 0.0 if neutral. MACD and ADX/DI scores can also take intermediate values reflecting both direction and strength (e.g., ±1.0, ±0.6, ±0.3, 0.0).
Weighting: In the settings, you can assign a weight (between 0.0 and 1.0) to each analysis, determining how much it influences the final score. For instance, you might give EMA crossover a higher weight and use RSI with a lower weight.
Total Score: The individual scores of the active analyses are multiplied by their assigned weights and summed up. This total is then divided by the sum of the weights of the active analyses to obtain a final, normalized Trend Score between -1.0 and +1.0. This score represents the combined view of all analyses.
4. Trend Determination:
The calculated final Trend Score is classified into an overall TREND status based on threshold values you set in the settings:
S.UP (Strong Up): Score > Strong Up Threshold (Default: 0.70)
UP: Up Threshold < Score <= Strong Up Threshold (Default: 0.35 < Score <= 0.70)
NEUTRAL: Down Threshold <= Score <= Up Threshold (Default: -0.35 <= Score <= 0.35)
DOWN: Strong Down Threshold <= Score < Down Threshold (Default: -0.70 <= Score < -0.35)
S.DOWN (Strong Down): Score < Strong Down Threshold (Default: -0.70)
This classification allows you to see at a glance which assets have strong trend potential.
5. Table Structure and Meanings:
The indicator displays the results in a table with the following columns:
TICKER: The symbol of the analyzed asset (abbreviated).
TREND: The overall trend status determined by the total score (S.UP, UP, NEUTRAL, DOWN, S.DOWN). The background color of this column also reflects this overall trend (Dark Green, Green, Gray, Red, Dark Red).
SCORE: The calculated weighted total score (between -1.00 and +1.00, with two decimal places). The background color of this column also reflects the overall trend.
EMA: Shows the result of only the EMA 9/21 analysis.

Combine these scan results with other rules of your swing trading strategy (support/resistance, patterns, risk management, etc.) to make trading decisions.
8. Important Notes:
This indicator does not constitute financial advice. It is merely a tool that combines technical analysis tools to help you scan the market.
The default parameters and weights in the indicator settings are for general use. For best results, it is strongly recommended that you optimize these settings by backtesting them on historical data according to your own strategy, the assets you trade, and market conditions.
No technical indicator or system generates 100% accurate signals. Always apply risk management principles and do not trade with money you cannot afford to lose.
I hope this guide helps you use the indicator effectively!
Market Structure Confluence [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script is called "Market Structure Confluence" and it combines classic market structure analysis with a dynamic volatility-based band system to detect shifts in trend and momentum more reliably. It tracks key swing points (higher highs, higher lows, lower highs, lower lows) to define the trend, then overlays a basis and ATR-smoothed volatility bands to catch rejection signals and highlight potential inflection points in the market.
CONCEPTS
Market structure is the foundation of price action trading, focusing on the relationship between successive highs and lows to understand trend conditions. Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) events are important because they signal when a market might be shifting direction. This script enhances traditional structure by integrating volatility bands, which act like dynamic support/resistance zones based on ATR, allowing it to capture momentum surges and rejections beyond just structural shifts.
FEATURES
Swing Detection: It detects and labels Higher Highs (HH), Higher Lows (HL), Lower Highs (LH), and Lower Lows (LL) based on user-defined time horizons, helping traders quickly spot the trend direction.
BOS and CHoCH Lines: When a previous swing point is broken, the script automatically plots a Break of Structure (BOS) line. If the break represents a major trend reversal (a CHoCH), it is marked differently to separate simple breakouts from real trend changes.
Rejection Signals: Special arrows plot when price pierces a band and then pulls back, suggesting a potential trap move or rejection signal in the direction of the new structure.
Alerts: Built-in alerts for structure breaks, CHoCHs, swing points, rejections at bands, and trend flips make it easy to automate setups without manually watching the chart.
USAGE
Set your preferred swing detection size depending on your timeframe and trading style — smaller numbers for intraday, larger numbers for swing trading. Choose whether you want BOS/CHoCH confirmed by candle closes or by wick breaks. Use the volatility band settings to fine-tune how tightly or loosely the bands hug the price, adjusting sensitivity based on market conditions. When a BOS or CHoCH occurs, or when a rejection happens at the bands, the script will highlight it clearly and optionally trigger alerts. Watch for combinations where both structure breaks and volatility band rejections happen together — those are high-quality trade signals. This setup works best when used with basic trend filtering and higher timeframe confirmation.
MastersCycleSignal(Mastersinnifty)Overview
MastersCycleSignal is a high-precision market timing and projection indicator for trend-following and swing traders.
It combines an adaptive cycle detection algorithm, forward-looking sine wave projections, dynamic momentum confirmation, and Gann Square of 9-based geometric targets into a complete structured trading framework.
The script continuously analyzes price oscillations to detect dominant cycles, projects expected price behavior with future-facing sine approximations, and generates buy/sell signals once confirmed by adaptive momentum filtering.
Upon confirmation, it calculates mathematically consistent Gann-based target levels and risk-managed stop-loss suggestions.
Users also benefit from auto-extending targets as price action unfolds — helping traders anticipate rather than react to market shifts.
---
Uniqueness
MastersCycleSignal stands apart through a unique fusion of techniques:
- Dynamic Cycle Detection
- Detects dominant cycles using a cosine correlation maximization method between detrended price (close minus SMA) and theoretical cosine curves, dynamically recalibrated across a sliding window.
- Sine Wave Future Projection
- Smooths and projects future price paths by approximating a forward sine wave based on the real-time detected dominant cycle.
- Adaptive Momentum Filtering
- Volatility is scaled by divergence between normalized returns and a 5-period EMA, further adjusted by an RSI(2) factor.
- This makes buy/sell signal confirmation robust against noise and false breakouts.
- Gann-Based Target Computation
- Uses a square-root transformation of price, incremented by selectable Gann Square of 9 degrees, for calculating progressive and dynamically expanding price targets.
- Auto-Extending Targets
- As price achieves a projected target, the system automatically draws subsequent new targets based on the prior target differential — providing continuous guidance in trending conditions.
---
Usefulness
MastersCycleSignal is built to help traders:
- Identify early trend reversals through cycle shifts.
- Forecast probable price paths in advance.
- Plan systematic target and stop-loss zones with geometric accuracy.
- Reduce guesswork in trend-following and swing trading.
- Maintain structured discipline across intraday, swing, and positional strategies.
It works seamlessly across stocks, indices, forex, commodities, and crypto markets — on any timeframe.
---
How to Use
- Attach the indicator to your desired chart.
- When a Buy Signal or Sell Signal appears (green or red markers):
- Use the attached stop-loss labels to manage risk.
- Monitor the automatically plotted target lines for partial exits or full profits.
- The orange projected sine wave illustrates the expected future market path.
- Customization Options:
- Cycle Detection Length — adjust to fine-tune cycle sensitivity.
- Projection Length — modify the forward distance of sine wave forecast.
- Gann Square of 9 Degrees — personalize target increments.
- Toggle Signals and Target visibility as needed.
---
Disclaimer
- MastersCycleSignal uses no future data or lookahead bias.
- All projections are based on geometric extrapolations from historical price action — not guaranteed predictions.
- Trading involves risks, and historical cycle behavior may differ in future conditions.

🧠 Best Practices for Traders
Trend Filtering:
Use EMAs or volume to confirm the current trend.
Take longs only in uptrends, shorts in downtrends.
Liquidity Zones:
Use this indicator after liquidity grabs.
OBs and Breakers often appear right after stop hunts.
Combine with Manual Zones:
This works best when paired with manually drawn OBs and key levels.
Backtest the Signals:
Use Bar Replay mode on TradingView to test past signals.
🧪 Example Trade Setup
Example on BTCUSDT 15m:
Price drops into the discount zone.
A green triangle appears (bullish engulfing + OB + imbalance + HTF OB).
You enter long, stop below the OB, target the premium zone.

Alpha Beta Gamma with Volume CandleAlpha Beta Gamma with Volume Candle
This Pine Script indicator analyzes price dynamics and volume activity to assist traders in identifying momentum, reversals, and key price levels. It calculates three proprietary metrics—Alpha, Beta, and Gamma—based on a user-selected price type (e.g., Open, Close, HL2) and timeframe, using a lookback period (default 37 bars). These metrics normalize price movements relative to the range of highs and lows, helping traders gauge market strength and positioning.
How It Works:
Alpha: Measures the distance of the selected price from the lowest price over the lookback period, normalized by the period length.
Beta: Represents the full price range (high minus low) over the lookback period, scaled by the period length.
Gamma: Normalizes the price’s position within the high-low range, providing a 0–1 scale for relative positioning.
Volume Analysis: The script classifies candles based on volume thresholds relative to a simple moving average (SMA, default 400 bars). High volume (≥ 2x SMA), low volume (≤ 0.5x SMA), and strong signal volume (≥ 1.5x SMA) trigger distinct candle colors to highlight bullish (e.g., deep blue, violet) or bearish (e.g., aqua, pink) conditions.
Custom Bands: Nine horizontal levels (0 to 1, divided into eight equal parts) act as dynamic support/resistance zones, useful for grid-based trading or breakout strategies.
How to Use:
Inputs:
Chart Timeframe: Select the timeframe for price data (e.g., 1H, 1D).
Price Type: Choose the price metric (e.g., Close, HL2) for calculations.
ABG Length: Adjust the lookback period (default 37) for sensitivity.
Volume MA Length: Set the SMA period for volume analysis (default 400).
Volume Thresholds: Customize high, low, and strong volume multipliers.
Visual Settings: Toggle labels, custom bands, and table display; adjust line styles, label sizes, and table positions.
Interpretation:
Use Alpha, Beta, and Gamma plots to assess price momentum and range dynamics.
Monitor colored candles for volume-driven signals (e.g., violet for strong bullish volume).
Leverage custom bands for support/resistance or breakout trading.
Check the table for real-time ABG values and percentage changes.
Settings Tips:
For scalping, reduce the ABG Length (e.g., 20) and use a shorter timeframe (e.g., 5M).
For swing trading, increase the Volume MA Length (e.g., 600) for more stable volume signals.
Enable labels and custom bands for visual clarity on key levels.
This indicator is versatile for various trading styles, combining price-based metrics with volume analysis to enhance decision-making.
ZenAlgo - RangerThe core of the indicator is the daily range, anchored around the 1-minute timeframe VWAP (volume-weighted average price), with ±2 standard deviations defining the upper and lower bounds. This range dynamically forms throughout the day and then gets “locked” at 23:59 each day to establish historical reference values.
The indicator calculates this locked VWAP and standard deviation per day, which serves two primary purposes:
Drawing today's real-time evolving range , updated each minute.
Plotting previous daily ranges , based on historical locked VWAPs and standard deviations, providing visual reference boxes on the chart.
This design enables the trader to identify mean-reversion zones and persistent directional biases based on volume-weighted price consensus.
Multiple Standard Deviation Layers
Beyond the ±2.0 deviation bounds, optional lines are available at half-step increments (e.g., ±0.5, ±1.5, ..., ±4.5) and full-step levels beyond ±2.0 (±3.0, ±4.0, ±5.0). These provide a customizable grid to visualize price extremes, tail behavior, or potential breakout zones relative to volume-adjusted price equilibrium.
Users can enable only the levels they need, offering flexibility depending on their strategy (e.g., scalping versus swing trading).
Historical Range Retention
The script stores up to 70 previous daily VWAP + standard deviation values (adjustable). For each, it draws a full range box and standard deviation lines in the past. This historical context helps in understanding how current price interacts with prior days’ balance zones.
These boxes are always drawn from 00:00 to 23:59 UTC , ensuring consistent alignment across instruments and avoiding session-based discrepancies.
Monday Range Reference (Drawn on Tuesdays)
On Tuesdays, the indicator plots the previous Monday's VWAP-based range across the rest of the week. This serves as a persistent contextual anchor for traders watching weekly unfolding behavior. The range is defined identically (VWAP ±2σ) and drawn from Monday 00:00 through the following Monday.
This method assumes Monday often sets the tone or structure for the week, and tracking this level through time may highlight support/resistance confluence or range expansion scenarios.
Each Monday range is extended over 7 days and includes dashed lines at the 25%, 50%, and 75% marks within the range. These midrange markers help traders assess microstructure behaviors (e.g., reversion to median, failure to hold midpoint, etc.).
Daily Volume Delta via 4H Candles
The indicator also integrates daily buy/sell volume deltas , derived from 4-hour candles of the regular session (non-Heikin Ashi). The logic categorizes volume as:
Buy volume when candle closes above the previous close.
Sell volume when it closes below.
Even split when the candle closes flat.
These volumes accumulate each day to derive net delta (buy - sell). This delta is recorded for each day and can optionally be displayed. A similar process tracks the delta for each Monday range on an ongoing basis.
This information quantifies the market’s aggressive buying vs. selling , correlating with price positions inside or outside the VWAP ranges. A strong delta in one direction may justify a price sustaining above/below VWAP, or diverging from the previous range.
Interpretation and Best Usage Practices
VWAP±2σ Range : Considered a high-probability area for consolidation or reversal. Mean-reverting strategies can benefit from signals within this area.
VWAP±3.0 and beyond : Extreme deviations may signal exhaustion or breakout potential, but are less frequent.
Previous Range Overlap : Overlap of today’s price with past VWAP zones may indicate support/resistance zones.
Monday Range on Tuesday : Persistent levels where the week may repeatedly pivot. Best used on instruments that exhibit weekly cyclical behavior (e.g., indices, forex).
Delta Behavior : Sharp positive or negative delta combined with price outside VWAP bands may suggest initiative participation and potential trend continuation.
Added Value Over Free Alternatives
While many free VWAP tools exist, this script differs in several specific and factual ways:
Anchored 1-minute VWAP lock at a consistent daily timestamp (23:59 UTC), enabling historical analysis.
Historical storage of previous VWAP ranges , with adjustable memory depth and visual continuity.
Flexible standard deviation plotting , down to 0.5 increments, tailored to the user's strategy needs.
Dedicated Monday range analysis , not common in freely available scripts.
Volume delta tracking per day and per Monday range , offering a directional volume view unavailable in standard VWAP implementations.
Persistent and visual interpretation framework using extended boxes and dashed lines for easier contextual navigation.
Each of these additions increases the script’s utility for methodical traders relying on volume-weighted statistics, without requiring additional configuration or external calculations.
Limitations and Disclaimers
VWAP based on 1-minute resolution : The indicator uses minute-level data to calculate daily VWAP and standard deviation. This offers high fidelity on liquid instruments but may produce noisy or unreliable levels on illiquid assets or during periods of low volume. For example, microcap stocks or thinly traded altcoins might not yield stable VWAP centers.
Inferred buy/sell volume : Volume delta is estimated using price movement from one candle to the next (close-to-close logic), rather than actual trade-level aggressor data (which is not accessible via TradingView). This approximation may misclassify volume in choppy or low-volatility environments, especially in assets where price changes do not correlate well with order flow (e.g., crypto during low-volume weekends).
Non-continuous markets and price gaps : For assets that do not trade continuously (e.g., stocks, futures), the VWAP calculation starts fresh every day at 00:00 UTC, regardless of the instrument’s official session start. As a result:
Pre-market/post-market trades may be included in VWAP when analyzing equities, even though they are often excluded in professional VWAP tools.
Opening gaps in equities and futures may distort early VWAP values due to lack of volume context, especially if the previous day's session was already closed when new data begins accumulating.
Weekend gaps in crypto, although less frequent due to 24/7 trading, can still influence delta accumulation if abrupt moves happen during low liquidity periods.
Daily session alignment : The VWAP anchoring and box drawing uses 00:00 UTC to 23:59 UTC windows. For instruments with different official session timings (e.g., US equities, CME futures), this may cause mismatches between expected session VWAPs and the ones shown in this script.
Conclusion
The ZenAlgo – Ranger script offers a systematic visualization of volume-adjusted price behavior, combining statistical VWAP ranges with volume delta overlays. By integrating daily and weekly reference zones, this tool supports structured decision-making in various market environments, particularly for traders prioritizing mean reversion, range expansion, or trend confirmation.
Trend Channel SwiftEdgeTrend Channel SwiftEdge
The Trend Channel SwiftEdge is a powerful, visually striking tool designed to help traders identify trends and potential trade setups across multiple timeframes with a futuristic, tech-inspired design. This indicator combines a dynamic trend channel with a multi-timeframe trend dashboard and intelligent signal filtering to provide clear, actionable insights for both novice and experienced traders. Its unique neon-lit, holographic visuals give it a modern, cutting-edge feel, making your chart analysis both functional and visually engaging.
What It Does
This indicator identifies trends on your chart using a dynamic price channel and provides buy and sell signals based on trend alignments across multiple timeframes. It also features a dashboard that displays the trend direction (Up, Down, or Neutral) for six timeframes: 1-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, and 1-day. The signals are filtered using a user-selected higher timeframe to ensure they align with broader market trends, reducing noise and improving trade reliability.
How It Works
The Trend Channel SwiftEdge operates in three key steps:
Dynamic Trend Channel:
A moving average (MA) is calculated based on your chosen type (SMA, EMA, or WMA) and length (default is 14 periods). This MA forms the backbone of the trend channel.
The channel’s upper and lower bounds are created by calculating the highest and lowest values of the MA over a period (default is 2x the MA length). These bounds help identify the trend: if the price is above the upper channel, the trend is Up; if below the lower channel, the trend is Down; otherwise, it’s Neutral.
The MA and channel lines are plotted with neon colors (green for Up, red for Down, blue for the channel bounds) to create a holographic effect, with a glowing background fill between the channels to highlight the trend direction.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Dashboard:
The indicator analyzes trends across six timeframes (1M, 5M, 15M, 1H, 4H, D1) using the same trend channel logic.
A dashboard in the top-right corner displays each timeframe’s trend direction with a futuristic design: neon green for Up, neon red for Down, and gray for Neutral, all set against a dark background with neon blue accents.
Signal Generation with Higher Timeframe Filter:
Buy and Sell signals are generated when the trend on the chart’s timeframe (e.g., 1M) aligns with a user-selected higher timeframe (e.g., 15M).
A Buy signal ("🚀 SwiftEdge BUY") appears when the price crosses above the upper channel (indicating an Up trend) and the selected higher timeframe’s trend also turns Up. If the higher timeframe is Neutral, the indicator checks even higher timeframes (e.g., 1H and 4H for a 15M filter) to confirm the trend direction.
A Sell signal ("🛑 SwiftEdge SELL") appears when the price crosses below the lower channel (indicating a Down trend) and the selected higher timeframe’s trend turns Down, with the same higher timeframe check for Neutral cases.
Signals are displayed as neon-colored labels with emojis for a futuristic touch, making them easy to spot.
Why This Combination?
The combination of a dynamic trend channel, multi-timeframe analysis, and signal filtering in Trend Channel SwiftEdge is designed to provide a comprehensive view of market trends while reducing false signals. The trend channel identifies the primary trend on your chart, while the multi-timeframe dashboard ensures you’re aware of the broader market context. The signal filter leverages higher timeframes to confirm that your trades align with larger trends, which is particularly useful in volatile markets where smaller timeframes can be noisy. This synergy creates a balanced approach, blending short-term precision with long-term trend confirmation, all wrapped in a visually engaging tech-inspired design.
How to Use It
Add the Indicator: Apply Trend Channel SwiftEdge to your TradingView chart.
Customize Settings:

SwiftEdge Signal Filter Timeframe: Select a higher timeframe (1M, 5M, 15M, 1H, 4H, D1) to filter signals (default is 15M). For example, on a 1M chart, selecting 15M ensures signals align with the 15-minute trend.
Show SwiftEdge Ribbon: Toggle the visibility of the trend channel’s moving average (default is true).
Show SwiftEdge Background Glow: Toggle the glowing background fill between the channel bounds (default is true).
Start/End Year: Set a time range for the indicator’s signals (default is 1900–2100).
Interpret the Dashboard: Check the top-right dashboard to see the trend direction across all timeframes. Use this to understand the broader market context.
Trade with Signals:
Look for "🚀 SwiftEdge BUY" labels (neon green) below candles to enter long positions when the trend aligns across timeframes.
Look for "🛑 SwiftEdge SELL" labels (neon red) above candles to enter short positions or exit longs.
Ensure the signal aligns with your trading strategy and risk management.
What Makes It Original?
Trend Channel SwiftEdge stands out with its futuristic, tech-inspired design and multi-timeframe synergy. Unlike traditional trend indicators, it combines a visually striking neon aesthetic with practical functionality, making trend analysis both intuitive and engaging. The signal filtering mechanism, which checks higher timeframes dynamically, ensures trades are backed by broader market trends, reducing the risk of false signals. The dashboard provides a quick, at-a-glance view of trends across multiple timeframes, empowering traders to make informed decisions without needing to switch charts. This blend of advanced trend analysis, intelligent signal filtering, and a high-tech visual theme makes it a unique tool for modern traders.

SMT SwiftEdge PowerhouseSMT SwiftEdge Powerhouse: Precision Trading with Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and OTE Zones
The SMT SwiftEdge Powerhouse is a powerful trading tool designed to help traders identify high-probability entry points during the most active market sessions—London and New York. By combining Smart Money Technique (SMT) Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) Zones, this script provides a unique and cohesive strategy for capturing market reversals with precision. Whether you're a scalper or a swing trader, this indicator offers clear visual signals to enhance your trading decisions on any timeframe.
What Does This Script Do?
This script integrates three key concepts to identify potential trading opportunities:
SMT Divergence:
SMT Divergence compares the price action of two correlated assets (e.g., Nasdaq and S&P 500 futures) to detect hidden market reversals. When one asset makes a higher high while the other makes a lower high (bearish divergence), or one makes a lower low while the other makes a higher low (bullish divergence), it signals a potential reversal. This technique leverages institutional "smart money" behavior to anticipate market shifts.
Liquidity Grabs:
Liquidity Grabs occur when price breaks above recent highs or below recent lows on higher timeframes (5m and 15m), often triggering stop-loss orders from retail traders. These breakouts are identified using pivot points and confirm institutional activity, setting the stage for a reversal. The script focuses on liquidity grabs during the London and New York sessions for maximum market activity.
Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) Zones:
OTE Zones are Fibonacci-based retracement areas (e.g., 61.8%) calculated after a liquidity grab. These zones highlight where price is likely to retrace before continuing in the direction of the reversal, offering a high-probability entry point. The script adjusts the width of these zones using the Average True Range (ATR) to adapt to market volatility.
By combining these components, the script identifies when institutional activity (liquidity grabs) aligns with market reversals (SMT divergence) and pinpoints precise entry points (OTE zones) during high-liquidity sessions.
Why Combine These Components?
The integration of SMT Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and OTE Zones creates a robust trading system for several reasons:
Synergy of Institutional Signals: SMT Divergence and Liquidity Grabs both reflect "smart money" behavior—divergence shows hidden reversals, while liquidity grabs confirm institutional intent to trap retail traders. Together, they provide a strong foundation for identifying high-probability setups.
Session-Based Precision: Focusing on the London and New York sessions ensures signals occur during periods of high volatility and liquidity, increasing their reliability.
Precision Entries with OTE: After confirming a setup with divergence and liquidity grabs, OTE zones provide a clear entry area, reducing guesswork and improving trade accuracy.
Adaptability: The script works on any timeframe, with adjustable settings for signal sensitivity, session times, and Fibonacci levels, making it versatile for different trading styles.
This combination makes the script unique by aligning institutional insights with actionable entry points, tailored to the most active market hours.
How to Use the Script
Setup:
Add the script to your chart (works on any timeframe, e.g., 1m, 5m, 15m).
Configure the settings in the indicator's inputs:
Session Settings: Adjust the start/end times for London and New York sessions (default: London 8-11 UTC, New York 13-16 UTC). You can disable session restrictions if desired.
Asset Settings: Set the primary and secondary assets for SMT Divergence (default: NQ1! and ES1!). Ensure the assets are correlated.
Signal Settings: Adjust the lookback period, ATR period, and signal sensitivity (Low/Medium/High) to control the frequency of signals.
OTE Settings: Choose the Fibonacci level for OTE zones (default: 61.8%).
Visual Settings: Enable/disable OTE zones, SMT labels, and debug labels for troubleshooting.
Interpreting Signals:
Blue Circles: Indicate a liquidity grab (price breaking a 5m or 15m pivot high/low), marking the start of a potential setup.
Blue OTE Zones: Appear after a liquidity grab, showing the retracement area (e.g., 61.8% Fibonacci level) where price is likely to enter for a reversal trade. The label "OTE Trigger 5m/15m" confirms the direction (Short/Long) and session.
Green/Red Entry Boxes: Mark precise entry points when price enters the OTE zone and confirms the SMT Divergence. Green boxes indicate a long entry, red boxes a short entry.
Trading Example:
On a 1m chart, a blue circle appears when price breaks a 5m pivot high during the London session.
A blue OTE zone forms, showing a retracement area (e.g., 61.8% Fibonacci level) with the label "OTE Trigger 5m/15m (Short, London)".
Price retraces into the OTE zone, and a red "Short Entry" box appears, confirming a bearish SMT Divergence.
Enter a short trade at the red box, with a stop-loss above the OTE zone and a take-profit at the next support level.
Originality and Utility
The SMT SwiftEdge Powerhouse stands out by merging SMT Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and OTE Zones into a single, session-focused indicator. Unlike traditional indicators that focus on one aspect of price action, this script combines institutional reversal signals with precise entry zones, tailored to the most active market hours. Its adaptability across timeframes, customizable settings, and clear visual cues make it a versatile tool for traders seeking to capitalize on smart money movements with confidence.
Tips for Best Results
Use on correlated assets like NQ1! (Nasdaq futures) and ES1! (S&P 500 futures) for accurate SMT Divergence.
Test on lower timeframes (1m, 5m) for scalping or higher timeframes (15m, 1H) for swing trading.
Adjust the "Signal Sensitivity" to "High" for more signals or "Low" for fewer, high-quality setups.
Enable "Show Debug Labels" if signals are not appearing as expected, to troubleshoot pivot points and liquidity grabs.
Adaptive Support & Resistance Levels [StabTrading]The Adaptive S&R Levels indicator is designed to study support and resistance levels by synthesizing multiple well-known techniques for identifying these zones. It aims to provide traders with reliable price levels that reflect the collective perspective of market participants, using historical price action and projective techniques for extreme conditions.
💡 Introduction: Identified Problem
Traders often draw support and resistance lines using varied methods, leading to inconsistencies in where these levels are placed on charts. This variability can reduce the effectiveness of individual levels, as price may not react strongly to zones that lack broad recognition. The Adaptive S&R Levels indicator addresses this by aggressively averaging multiple established techniques to create support and resistance lines that align with what most traders are likely to identify, increasing the probability of price reactions.
🚀 How it Works: Overview
The indicator employs a multi-technique algorithm to generate support and resistance levels, ensuring they represent a consensus of trader perspectives.
🚀 How it Works: Chart Levels Display and Styling
Support levels, displayed in green below the current price, and resistance levels, shown in red above the price, are plotted clearly on the chart. Levels are numbered sequentially (e.g., v1, v2) as they move further from the current price, providing a visual hierarchy of proximity. Extreme levels, labeled as "Extreme Support" or "Extreme Resistance," are plotted in a bolder color to distinguish them as the outermost boundaries, maintaining the same green (support) and red (resistance) color scheme for consistency.
🚀 How it Works: Historical Price Action Algorithm
For areas with available historical data, the algorithm analyzes price action using a variety of recognized methods for drawing support and resistance, such as pivot points, swing highs/lows, and volume-based zones. It calculates a weighted average of these techniques to produce a “regression fit” line that reflects the accumulation of levels traders might draw. By prioritizing areas where multiple methods converge, the indicator identifies zones likely to be significant to a wide audience, enhancing their relevance.
🚀 How it Works: Projective Techniques Algorithm
In scenarios without recent historical price action—such as all-time highs or lows—the indicator employs an alternative algorithm that combines projective techniques commonly used by traders. These include Fibonacci extensions, Measured Moves (price projections), Psychological Milestones (e.g., round numbers), Channel/Trendline Extrapolation, and Time-Based Targets (inspired by methods like Gann techniques). The algorithm seeks a confluence of these methods to draw support and resistance levels that align with what most traders would consider significant in such conditions. These levels maintain the same green (support) and red (resistance) color scheme, with numbering based on their distance from the price.
🚀 How it Works: Noise Parameter Adjustment
Users can adjust a noise parameter to control the number of displayed levels. Lower settings show more lines, reflecting a broader range of potential zones but with less confluence. Higher settings increase the required confluence of techniques, resulting in fewer lines that have a higher probability of eliciting a price reaction. This customization allows traders to tailor the indicator to their preferred timeframe or trading style.
🔥 Features
Confluence-Based Levels: Support and resistance lines are derived from a weighted average of multiple techniques, aiming to mirror the levels most traders would recognize.
Extreme Levels: Generates support and resistance in areas without historical price action, using techniques like Fibonacci extensions and Measured Moves.
Color-Coded Display: Green support levels appear below the current price, and red resistance levels appear above, with extreme levels in a bolder shade for distinction.
Adjustable Noise Parameter: Users can modify the confluence threshold to display more lines (lower settings) or fewer, higher-probability lines (higher settings).
📈 Implementing the System
1. Adjust Settings
Set the noise parameter based on your trading style (0.1 to 10).
Use lower values for more frequent levels, suitable for scalping or short-term analysis.
Use higher values for fewer, higher-confluence levels, ideal for swing trading or longer-term strategies.
Adjust for your timeframe: Settings tend to be lower on shorter timeframes and higher on longer timeframes.
2. Identify Levels
Monitor green support levels below the price for potential buying zones, noting their numbered proximity (v1, v2, etc.).
Observe red resistance levels above the price for potential selling or shorting zones, noting their numbered proximity.
Note extreme levels (labeled "Extreme Support" or "Extreme Resistance") in areas like all-time highs, which may act as key reversal points.
3. Evaluate Price Reactions
Track how price interacts with the plotted levels to assess their effectiveness, considering their proximity to price.
Observe performance in bullish, bearish, or ranging markets to understand the indicator’s behavior at different levels.
Test different noise parameter settings across various assets and timeframes to find the optimal balance for your approach.
4. Layering Trades with Levels
Use the numbered levels to layer into a trade: for example, enter a partial position at a closer support level (e.g., v1) and add to it at a further level (e.g., v2) if price continues to decline, spreading risk across multiple zones.
Layer out of a trade by taking partial profits at each resistance level as price rises (e.g., reduce position at v1, then v2), or fully exit at an "Extreme Resistance" level to maximize gains while managing exposure.
🔶 Conclusion
The Adaptive S&R Levels indicator provides a framework for studying support and resistance by averaging multiple trader-recognized techniques. With its ability to handle both historical and extreme price scenarios, numbered levels for visual hierarchy, and customizable noise settings, it offers a versatile tool for analyzing key price levels. Designed for educational use, it encourages traders to test and observe how these consensus-driven levels align with market behavior within broader analysis.
Volume-Price Momentum IndicatorVolume-Price Momentum Indicator (VPMI)
Overview
The Volume-Price Momentum Indicator (VPMI), developed by Kevin Svenson , is a powerful technical analysis tool designed to identify strong bullish and bearish momentum in price movements, driven by volume dynamics. By analyzing price changes and volume surges over a user-defined lookback period, VPMI highlights potential trend shifts and continuation patterns through a smoothed histogram, optional labels, and background highlights. Ideal for traders seeking to capture momentum-driven opportunities, VPMI is suitable for various markets, including stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies.
How It Works
VPMI calculates the difference between volume-weighted buying and selling pressure based on price changes over a specified lookback period. It amplifies signals during high-volume periods, applies smoothing to reduce noise, and uses momentum checks to detect sustained trends.
Indicator display:
A histogram that oscillates above (bullish) or below (bearish) a zero line, with brighter colors indicating stronger momentum and faded colors for weaker signals.
Optional labels ("Bullish" or "Bearish") to mark significant momentum shifts.
Optional background highlights to visually emphasize strong trend conditions.
Alerts to notify users when strong bullish or bearish momentum is detected.
Key Features
Customizable Settings:
Adjust the lookback period, volume threshold, momentum length, and smoothing to suit your trading style.
Volume Sensitivity:

Combine with Other Tools:
Pair VPMI with support/resistance levels, trendlines, or other indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD) for confirmation.
Best Practices
Timeframe:
VPMI works on all timeframes, but shorter timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m) may produce more signals, while longer timeframes (e.g., 1h, 4h, 1D) offer higher reliability.
Market Conditions:
Most effective in trending markets. In choppy or sideways markets, consider increasing the smoothing length or momentum threshold to filter noise.
Risk Management:
Always use VPMI signals in conjunction with a robust trading plan, including stop-losses and position sizing.
Limitations
Lagging Nature:
As a momentum indicator, VPMI may lag in fast-moving markets due to smoothing and lookback calculations.

SwiftEdge NW EnvelopeSwiftEdge NW Envelope
Overview
The SwiftEdge NW Envelope is a visually striking technical indicator designed for traders seeking to identify high-probability buy and sell opportunities in volatile markets. By combining the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Average True Range (ATR), and Nadaraya-Watson Envelope, this indicator provides a unique blend of momentum, volatility, and non-linear trend analysis. Its futuristic, AI-inspired aesthetic—featuring neon gradients and dynamic colors—enhances chart readability while delivering actionable trading signals.
What It Does
The SwiftEdge NW Envelope generates buy and sell signals based on price interactions with dynamically calculated support and resistance bands, confirmed by RSI conditions. The indicator:
Plots a Nadaraya-Watson Envelope to identify smooth, non-linear price trends and dynamic support/resistance zones.
Uses ATR to scale the envelope’s bands, adapting to market volatility.
Employs RSI to confirm overbought/oversold conditions, ensuring signals align with momentum.
Visualizes signals with neon-colored markers, background zones, and labels for intuitive decision-making.
How It Works
The indicator integrates three key components:
Nadaraya-Watson Envelope:
A kernel-based regression technique that smooths price data to create a central trend line (mean) and dynamic upper/lower bands.
Unlike traditional moving averages, it provides a non-linear, adaptive view of price trends, making it ideal for capturing complex market movements.
The band width is determined by ATR, ensuring responsiveness to volatility.
Average True Range (ATR):
Measures market volatility to scale the envelope’s bands.
A multiplier (default: 0.5) adjusts the sensitivity of the bands, allowing traders to fine-tune the indicator for different assets or market conditions.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
A momentum oscillator with a shortened period (default: 5) for increased sensitivity.
Confirms buy signals when RSI is oversold (default: <30) and sell signals when RSI is overbought (default: >70).
Signal Logic
Buy Signal: Triggered when the price crosses above the lower band of the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope and RSI is below the oversold threshold. Marked by a green circle and a "BUY" label below the candle.
Sell Signal: Triggered when the price crosses below the upper band and RSI is above the overbought threshold. Marked by a magenta circle and a "SELL" label above the candle.
Background Zones: Green (buy) or red (sell) translucent zones highlight signal areas for quick recognition.
Visual Features
Dynamic Colors: The central trend line shifts between cyan (uptrend), purple (downtrend), or gray (neutral) based on price position relative to the mean.
Neon Gradient Fill: A translucent blue fill between the upper (green) and lower (red) bands creates a glowing, futuristic effect.
Modern Signal Markers: Small, vibrant circles (green for buy, magenta for sell) and clear labels enhance visual clarity.
Why This Combination?
The SwiftEdge NW Envelope combines RSI, ATR, and Nadaraya-Watson Envelope to create a robust trading tool:
RSI provides momentum confirmation, filtering out false signals in choppy markets.
ATR ensures the envelope adapts to changing volatility, making it suitable for both trending and ranging markets.
Nadaraya-Watson Envelope offers a sophisticated, non-linear alternative to traditional bands (e.g., Bollinger Bands), capturing subtle price dynamics. Together, these components deliver a balanced approach to trend-following and mean-reversion strategies, with RSI acting as a gatekeeper to improve signal reliability.
Customize Settings:
RSI Period (5): Adjust for more/less sensitivity to momentum.
RSI Overbought/Oversold (70/30): Modify thresholds to tighten or loosen signal conditions.
ATR Period (14) and Multiplier (0.5): Tune volatility sensitivity.
NW Length (25), Bandwidth (8.0), Multiplier (3.0): Adjust the smoothness and width of the envelope.
Interpret Signals:
Buy: Look for green circles and "BUY" labels when price crosses above the lower band, confirmed by low RSI.
Sell: Look for magenta circles and "SELL" labels when price crosses below the upper band, confirmed by high RSI.
Use background zones to quickly spot active signal areas.
Combine with Other Tools:
Pair with support/resistance levels or volume analysis for additional confirmation.
Test signals on a demo account before live trading.
Originality
The SwiftEdge NW Envelope stands out due to:
Its innovative use of Nadaraya-Watson regression, a less common but powerful tool for non-linear trend analysis.
A unique visual design with neon gradients and dynamic colors, inspired by AI and futuristic interfaces, making it both functional and visually engaging.
A streamlined signal system that balances momentum (RSI), volatility (ATR), and trend (Nadaraya-Watson), reducing noise and enhancing trade precision.
Notes
Best suited for volatile markets (e.g., forex, crypto, stocks) where price swings create clear envelope breakouts.
Adjust input parameters to match your trading style (e.g., shorter RSI period for scalping, wider bands for swing trading).
Always backtest and validate signals in your specific market and timeframe before trading.
Advanced Momentum Scanner [QuantAlgo]The Advanced Momentum Scanner is a sophisticated technical indicator designed to identify market momentum and trend direction using multiple exponential moving averages (EMAs), momentum metrics, and adaptive visualization techniques. It is particularly valuable for those looking to identify trading and investing opportunities based on trend changes and momentum shifts across any market and timeframe.
🟢 Technical Foundation
The Advanced Momentum Scanner utilizes a multi-layered approach with four different EMA periods to identify market momentum and trend direction:
Ultra-Fast EMA for quick trend changes detection (default: 5)
Fast EMA for short-term trend analysis (default: 10)
Mid EMA for intermediate confirmation (default: 30)
Slow EMA for long-term trend identification (default: 100)
For momentum detection, the indicator implements a Rate of Change (RoC) calculation to measure price momentum over a specified period. It further enhances analysis by incorporating RSI readings for overbought/oversold conditions, volatility measurements through ATR, and optional volume confirmation. When these elements align, the indicator generates trading signals based on the selected sensitivity mode (Conservative, Balanced, or Aggressive).
🟢 Key Features & Signals
1. Multi-Period Trend Identification
The indicator combines multiple EMAs of different lengths to provide comprehensive trend analysis within the same timeframe, displaying the information through color-coded visual elements on the chart.
When an uptrend is detected, chart elements are colored with the bullish theme color (default: green/teal).
Similarly, when a downtrend is detected, chart elements are colored with the bearish theme color (default: red).
During neutral or indecisive periods, chart elements are colored with a neutral gray color, providing clear visual distinction between trending and non-trending market conditions.
This visualization provides immediate insights into underlying trend direction without requiring separate indicators, helping traders and investors quickly identify the market's current state.
2. Trend Strength Information Panel
The trend panel operates in three different sensitivity modes (Conservative, Aggressive, and Balanced), each affecting how the indicator processes and displays market information.
The Conservative mode prioritizes trend sustainability over frequency, showing only strong trend movements with high probability.
The Aggressive mode detects early trend changes, providing more frequent signals but potentially more false positives.
The Balanced mode offers a middle ground with moderate signal frequency and reliability.
Regardless of the selected mode, the panel displays:
Current trend direction (UPTREND, DOWNTREND, or NEUTRAL)
Trend strength percentage (0-100%)
Early detection signals when applicable
The active sensitivity mode
This comprehensive approach helps traders and investors:
→ Assess the strength of current market trends
→ Identify early potential trend changes before full confirmation
→ Make more informed trading and investing decisions based on trend context
3. Customizable Visualization Settings
This indicator offers extensive visual customization options to suit different trading styles and preferences:
Display options:
→ Fully customizable uptrend, downtrend, and neutral colors
→ Color-coded price bars showing trend direction
→ Dynamic gradient bands visualizing potential trend channels
→ Optional background coloring based on trend intensity
→ Adjustable transparency levels for all visual elements
These visualization settings can be fine-tuned through the indicator's interface, allowing traders and investors to create a personalized chart environment that emphasizes the most relevant information for their strategy.
The indicator also features a comprehensive alert system with notifications for:
New trend formations (uptrend, downtrend, neutral)
Early trend change signals
Momentum threshold crossovers
Other significant market conditions
Alerts can be customized and delivered through TradingView's notification system, making it easy to stay informed of important market developments even when you are away from the charts.
🟢 Practical Usage Tips
→ Trend Analysis and Interpretation: The indicator visualizes trend direction and strength directly on the chart through color-coding and the information panel, allowing traders and investors to immediately identify the current market context. This information helps in assessing the potential for continuation or reversal.
→ Signal Generation Strategies: The indicator generates potential trading signals based on trend direction, momentum confirmation, and selected sensitivity mode. Users can choose between Conservative (fewer but more reliable signals), Balanced (moderate approach), or Aggressive (more frequent but potentially less reliable signals).
→ Multi-Period Trend Assessment: Through its layered EMA approach, the indicator enables users to understand trend conditions across different lookback periods within the same timeframe. This helps in identifying the dominant trend and potential turning points.
🟢 Pro Tips
Adjust EMA periods based on your timeframe:
→ Lower values for shorter timeframes and more frequent signals
→ Higher values for higher timeframes and more reliable signals
Fine-tune sensitivity mode based on your trading style:

NexAlgo AI with Dynamic TP/SLThe NexAlgo Indicator combines a Gaussian kernel regression engine with adaptive volatility thresholds to generate clear, data‑driven trade signals and built‑in risk levels. It predicts the next bar’s price relative to a simple moving average, then measures the average deviation between actual and forecasted values to form dynamic bands. Breakouts beyond these bands, aligned with the prediction’s direction, produce buy or sell signals directly on your chart.
How It Works & What You’ll See
Kernel Regression Forecast: A rolling “lookback” window builds a Gaussian similarity matrix of recent prices. This matrix is used to project the next price, smoothing around a moving average.
Adaptive Volatility Bands: The indicator computes the mean absolute error between actual and predicted prices, multiplies it by your chosen volatility factor, and plots upper and lower bands.
Signal Triggers: When price closes above the upper band while the prediction is rising, a green “BUY” label appears; when price closes below the lower band as the forecast falls, a red “SELL” label is shown.
Automatic SL/TP Levels: After each signal, the script scans recent swing highs/lows and applies an ATR buffer. Stop‑loss is set conservatively at the more protective of these levels, while take‑profit is calculated by your reward‑to‑risk ratio and capped near the opposite swing extreme.
Customizable Inputs
Lookback Period & Smoothing: Adjust how many bars the regression and volatility calculations use, and tune the noise regularization to suit fast or slow markets.
Volatility Multiplier: Widen or tighten the adaptive bands to control signal frequency and confidence.
Swing Lookback & ATR Options: Define how far back the indicator searches for swing points, and choose between ATR calculation methods.
Reward‑to‑Risk Ratio: Set your preferred multiple of stop‑loss distance for take‑profit targets.
What Makes NexAlgo Different
Hybrid Statistical Approach: Unlike fixed‑period moving averages or standard regression, the Gaussian kernel adapts locally to evolving price patterns and regimes.
Self‑Adjusting Thresholds: Volatility bands derive from prediction errors—so they expand in choppy markets and contract in trending conditions.
Integrated Risk Controls: Automatically calculated stop‑loss and take‑profit levels remove manual guesswork, yet remain grounded in both ATR and price structure.
Trader‑Driven Flexibility: Every parameter—from lookback length to risk ratio—can be dialed in for scalping, swing trading, or longer‑term strategies.
Getting Started
• Apply NexAlgo to your preferred timeframe (5–15 min for intraday scalps, 1 h–4 h for swings, daily for position plays).
• Begin with default settings and gradually adjust lookback and smoothing to balance responsiveness versus noise.
• Experiment with volatility multipliers: tighten in strong trends, widen when markets churn.
• Backtest different ATR buffers and reward ratios to discover your ideal risk‑reward profile.
DTT Yearly Volatility Grid [Pro+] (NINE/ANARR)Introduction :
This tool is designed to automate the Digital Time Theory (DTT) framework created by Ivan and Anarr and applies the DTT Yearly Volatility Grid to uncover swing trading opportunities by analyzing Time-based statistical market behavior across the 4H to Daily chart.
Description:
Built upon the proprietary Digital Time Theory (DTT) , this advanced version is tailored for traders seeking multi-day to multi-week moves . It equips swing traders with an edge by analyzing macro Time intervals and volatility behavior across higher Timeframes. Applicable to all major asset classes, including stocks, crypto, forex, and futures , this script breaks down the entire yearly range into Higher-Time Frame Time Models and statistical zones .
This version uses daily intervals to track broader volatility waves, highlight the DTT framework, and pinpoint premium/discount areas across swing cycles. Powered by Time-driven data insights, this tool assists traders in anticipating expansions, understanding long-range Time distortions, and positioning around statistically significant zones in the higher-Time frame narrative.
Key Features:
Time-Based Models and Macro Volatility Awareness:
Automatically populates the chart with DTT Yearly Time Models (4H, Daily), engineered to spotlight macro volatility events across broader market sessions. Helps swing traders identify potential inflection points, reversals, or trend continuation zones.
Average Model Range Probability (AMRP):
Measure the average volatility expected over higher Time-based models. Use AMRP Levels and Projections to assess the range potential of each Yearly Model Time window—vital for monitoring reversals, breakouts, or continuation plays across several sessions or weeks.
Digital Root Candles and HTF Liquidity Draws:
For DTT Yearly Models, the Digital Root Candles are calculated as a specific Daily candle, and can be viewed on the Daily or 4H Timeframe. Analysts can frame premium and discount zones, based on where price is trading in relation to the current or previous model's Digital Roots. These areas also act as anchors for institutional price movement, often serving as bases for accumulation/distribution periods or large impulse moves.
Extended Visualization:
Track and project prior model ranges (high, low, equilibrium) into the current swing window. This helps visualize macro support/resistance , range expansion, failure zones, and price gravitation levels for longer-term trade planning.
Lookback Periods and Model Count
Utilize adjustable lookback periods to control the number of past DTT Yearly Models displayed—ideal for swing traders and quarterly outlooks. Whether you’re reviewing one yearly model to focus on the present range or several months’ worth of data for backtesting and confluence, this feature keeps charts clean, structured, and aligned with your preferred historical perspective.
By tailoring how many previous Time-based models appear on the chart, traders can better visualize and backtest repeated behaviors, major volatility clusters, and how key levels evolve over Time.
Detailed Data Table:
View statistical AMRP data for multiple DTT Yearly Models in real-Time. The data table helps confirm whether current price movement exceeds, respects, or fails to reach historical volatility ranges—key for analyzing market compression or expansion phases.
Customization Options:
Toggle inner Time interval, calculate AMRP utilizing a custom model lookback, and display styles (solid/dotted lines), including color coordination per drawing. Easily customize your charts and settings to fit your swing trading system or macro analysis.
How Swing Traders Can Use DTT Yearly Volatility Grid Effectively
Identify Swing Premium and Discount Zones:
Use Root Candles and Yearly Time Model AMRP Zones to evaluate where price is positioned in the current Time Model. Using this tool, traders can plan trades with a longer term horizon for a minimum of 1 to 2-weeks or manage entries/exits around market structure shifts and liquidity pools
Expect Macro Volatility Shifts:
Use the HTF models to forecast when and which volatility models are historically known to create larger market impulses . These tools help spot periods of potential exhaustion or breakout, especially near key economic releases, quarterly closes , or macro liquidity zones .
Avoid Low Volatility Consolidations:
AMRP helps you detect when the market is compressing or coiling within a DTT Yearly Model. If price is trading between Digital Root Candles or the AMRP zones, analysts are likely to notice periods of consolidation, and the inability to reach their historical volatility averages.
Usage Guidance:
Add DTT Yearly Volatility Grid (NINE/ANARR) to your TradingView chart.
Make sure to be on the 4H, or Daily Timeframes depending on your asset class and analysis.
Use the DTT Model elements and the Data Table to track expansion zones, premium/discount extremes, and model range behavior.

VWAP + EMA Retracement Indicator SwiftEdgeVWAP + EMA Retracement Indicator
Overview
The VWAP + EMA Retracement Indicator is a powerful and visually engaging tool designed to help traders identify high-probability buy and sell opportunities in trending markets. By combining the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) with two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and a unique retracement-based signal logic, this indicator pinpoints moments when the price pulls back to a key zone before resuming its trend. Its modern, AI-inspired visuals and customizable features make it both intuitive and adaptable for traders of all levels.
What It Does
This indicator generates buy and sell signals based on a sophisticated yet straightforward strategy:
Buy Signals: Triggered when the price is above VWAP, has recently retraced to the zone between two EMAs (default 12 and 21 periods), and a strong bullish candle closes above both EMAs.
Sell Signals: Triggered when the price is below VWAP, has retraced to the EMA zone, and a strong bearish candle closes below both EMAs.
Signal Filtering: A customizable cooldown period ensures that only the first signal in a sequence is shown, reducing noise while preserving opportunities for new trends.
Confidence Scores: Each signal includes an AI-inspired confidence score (0-100%), calculated from candle strength and price distance to VWAP, helping traders gauge signal reliability.
The indicator’s visuals enhance decision-making with dynamic gradient lines, a highlighted retracement zone, and clear signal labels, all customizable to suit your preferences.
How It Works
The indicator integrates several components that work together to create a cohesive trading tool:
VWAP: Acts as a dynamic support/resistance level, reflecting the average price weighted by volume. It filters signals to ensure buys occur in uptrends (price above VWAP) and sells in downtrends (price below VWAP).
Dual EMAs: Two EMAs (default 12 and 21 periods) define a retracement zone where the price is likely to consolidate before continuing its trend. Signals are generated only after the price exits this zone with conviction.
Retracement Logic: The indicator looks for price pullbacks to the EMA zone within a user-defined lookback window (default 5 candles), ensuring signals align with trend continuation patterns.
Candle Strength: Signals require strong candles (bullish for buys, bearish for sells) with a minimum body size based on the Average True Range (ATR), filtering out weak or indecisive moves.
Cooldown Mechanism: A unique feature that prevents signal clutter by allowing only the first signal within a user-defined period (default 3 candles), balancing responsiveness with clarity.
Confidence Score: Combines candle body size and price distance to VWAP to assign a score, giving traders an at-a-glance measure of signal strength without needing external analysis.
These components are carefully combined to capture high-probability setups while minimizing false signals, making the indicator suitable for both short-term and swing trading.
How to Use It
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to a 15-minute chart (recommended) or your preferred timeframe.
Customize Settings:
VWAP Source: Choose the price source (default: hlc3).
EMA Periods: Adjust the fast and slow EMA periods (default: 12 and 21).
Retracement Window: Set how many candles to look back for retracement (default: 5).
ATR Period & Body Size: Define candle strength requirements (default: 14 ATR period, 0.3 multiplier).
Cooldown Period: Control the minimum candles between signals (default: 3; set to 0 to disable).
Candle Requirements: Toggle whether signals require bullish/bearish candles or entire candle above/below EMAs.
Visuals: Enable/disable gradient colors, retracement zone, confidence scores, and choose a color scheme (Neon, Light, or Dark).
Interpret Signals:
Buy: A green "Buy" label with a confidence score appears below the candle when conditions are met.
Sell: A red "Sell" label with a confidence score appears above the candle.
Use the confidence score to prioritize higher-probability signals (e.g., above 80%).
Trade Management: Combine signals with your risk management strategy, such as setting stop-loss below the retracement zone and targeting a 1:2 risk-reward ratio.
Why It’s Unique
The VWAP + EMA Retracement Indicator stands out due to its thoughtful integration of classic indicators with modern enhancements:
Balanced Signal Filtering: The cooldown mechanism ensures clarity without missing key opportunities, unlike many indicators that overwhelm with frequent signals.
AI-Inspired Confidence: The confidence score simplifies decision-making by quantifying signal strength, mimicking advanced analytical tools in an accessible way.
Elegant Visuals: Dynamic gradients, a highlighted retracement zone, and customizable color schemes (Neon, Light, Dark) create a sleek, futuristic interface that’s both functional and visually appealing.
Flexibility: Extensive customization options let traders tailor the indicator to their style, from conservative swing trading to aggressive scalping.

Bearish Reversal OB color is Red
FVG color is purple
Bear Trap OB is red with a green border and often appears with a Bearish Reversal OB signaling caution to a short position.
Bull trap OB is green with a Red border signaling caution to a long position.
All active OB area are highlighted and solid in color while other non active OB area are dimmed.
My personal favorite setups are when we have an active bullish reversal with an active FVG along with an active Continuation OB.
Another personal favorite is the Bearish reversal OB signaling an end to a recent uptrend.
The Trap OB detection are also a unique and Original helpful source of information.
The OB have a white boarder by default that are colored black giving a simulated blinking effect when price is acting in that zone.
The Trap OB border are colored with respect to direction of intended trap, all of which can be customized to personal style.
All vaild OB zones are shown compact in size ,a unique and original view until its no longer valid.
