VWAP & Band Cross Strategy v6 - AdvancedThese are a few updates made to the original script. The daily take profit and stop loss functions correctly for 1 contract but because of the pyramiding input even if not used you'll need to multiply the values by the number of contracts to keep consistent results. I have been unable to correct that function. Let me know if you test the script and have any recommendations for improvement. If trading an actual account I do recommend setting hard daily limits with your provider because there is still slippage from the original exit alerts even with the daily stop loss in place.
1. Real-Time Execution & Hard PnL Limits (The Focus)
The most critical changes were implemented to ensure the daily profit and loss limits act as hard, real-time barriers instead of waiting for the candle to close.
• Intrabar Tick Execution: The parameter calc_on_every_tick=true was added to the strategy() declaration. This forces the entire script to re-evaluate its logic on every single price update (tick), enabling immediate action.
• Real-Time PnL Tracking: The PnL calculation was updated to track the total_daily_pnl by summing the realized profit/loss (from closed trades) and the unrealized profit/loss (strategy.openprofit) on every tick.
• Immediate Closure: The script now checks the total_daily_pnl against the user-defined limits (daily_take_profit_value, daily_stop_loss_value) and immediately executes strategy.close_all() the moment the threshold is breached, preventing further trading.
• Combined Risk Enforcement: The user-defined "Max Intraday Risk ($)" and the "Daily Stop Loss (Value)" are compared, and the script enforces the tighter of the two limits.
2. Visibility and External Alerting
To address the unavoidable issue of slippage (which causes price overshoot in fast markets even with tick execution), dedicated alert mechanisms were added.
• Dedicated Alert Condition: An alertcondition named DAILY PNL LIMIT REACHED was added. This allows you to set up a TradingView alert that triggers the instant the daily_limit_reached variable turns true, giving you the fastest possible notification.
• Visual Marker: A large red triangle (\u25b2) is plotted on the chart using plotchar at the exact moment the daily limit condition is met, providing a clear visual confirmation of the trigger bar.
3. Strategy Features and Input Flexibility
Several user-requested features were integrated to make the strategy more robust and customizable.
• Trailing Stop / Breakeven (TSL/BE): A new exit option, Fixed Ticks + TSL, was added, allowing you to set a fixed profit target while also deploying a trailing stop or breakeven level based on points/ticks gained.
• Multiple Exit Types: The exit strategy was expanded to include logic for several types: Fixed Ticks, ATR-based, Capped ATR-based, VWAP Cross, and Price/Band Crosses.
• Pyramiding Control: An input Max Pyramiding Entries was introduced to control how many positions the strategy can have open at the same time.
• Confirmation Logic Toggle: Added an input to choose how multiple confirmation indicators (RSI, SMMA, MACD) are combined: "AND" (all must be true) or "OR" (at least one must be true).
• Indicator Confirmations: Logic for three external indicators—RSI, SMMA (EMA), and MACD—was fully integrated to act as optional filters for entry.
• VWAP Reset Anchors: Logic was corrected to properly reset the VWAP calculation based on the selected period ("Daily", "Weekly", or "Session") by using Pine Script v6's required anchor series.
Trading Day Filters: Inputs were added to select which specific days of the week the strategy is allowed to trade.

Advanced Psychological Levels with Dynamic Spacing═══════════════════════════════════════
ADVANCED PSYCHOLOGICAL LEVELS WITH DYNAMIC SPACING
═══════════════════════════════════════
A comprehensive psychological price level indicator that automatically identifies and displays round number levels across multiple timeframes. Features dynamic ATR-based spacing, smart crypto detection, distance tracking, and customizable alert system.
───────────────────────────────────────
WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES
───────────────────────────────────────
This indicator automatically draws psychological price levels (round numbers) that often act as support and resistance:
- Dynamic ATR-Based Spacing - Adapts level spacing to market volatility
- Multiple Level Types - Major (250 pip), Standard (100 pip), Mid, and Intraday levels
- Smart Asset Detection - Automatically adjusts for Forex, Crypto, Indices, and CFDs
- Crypto Price Adaptation - Intelligent level spacing based on cryptocurrency price magnitude
- Distance Information Table - Real-time percentage distance to nearest levels
- Combined Level Labels - Clear identification when multiple level types coincide
- Performance Optimized - Configurable visible range and label limits
- Comprehensive Alerts - Notifications when price crosses any level type
───────────────────────────────────────
HOW IT WORKS
───────────────────────────────────────
PSYCHOLOGICAL LEVELS CONCEPT:
Psychological levels are round numbers where traders tend to place orders, creating natural support and resistance zones. These include:
- Forex: 1.0000, 1.0100, 1.0050 (pips)
- Crypto: $100, $1,000, $10,000 (whole numbers)
- Indices: 10,000, 10,500, 11,000 (points)
Why They Matter:
- Traders naturally gravitate to round numbers
- Stop losses cluster at these levels
- Take profit orders concentrate here
- Institutional algorithmic trading often targets these levels
DYNAMIC ATR-BASED SPACING:
Traditional Method:
- Fixed spacing regardless of volatility
- May be too tight in volatile markets
- May be too wide in quiet markets
Dynamic Method (Recommended):
- Uses ATR (Average True Range) to measure volatility
- Automatically adjusts level spacing
- Tighter levels in low volatility
- Wider levels in high volatility
Calculation:
1. Calculate ATR over specified period (default: 14)
2. Multiply by ATR multiplier (default: 2.0)
3. Round to nearest psychological level
4. Generate levels at dynamic intervals
Benefits:
- Adapts to market conditions
- More relevant levels in all volatility regimes
- Reduces clutter in trending markets
- Provides more detail in ranging markets
LEVEL TYPES:
Major Levels (250 pip/point):
- Highest significance
- Primary support/resistance zones
- Color: Red (default)
- Style: Solid lines
- Spacing: 2.5x standard step
Standard Levels (100 pip/point):
- Secondary importance
- Common psychological barriers
- Color: Blue (default)
- Style: Dashed lines
- Spacing: Standard step
Mid Levels (50% between major):
- Optional intermediate levels
- Halfway between major levels
- Color: Gray (default)
- Style: Dotted lines
- Usage: Additional confluence points
Intraday Levels (sub-100 pip):
- For intraday traders
- Fine-grained precision
- Color: Yellow (default)
- Style: Dotted lines
- Only shown on intraday timeframes
SMART ASSET DETECTION:
Forex Pairs:
- Detects major currency pairs automatically
- Uses pip-based calculations
- Standard: 100 pips (0.0100)
- Major: 250 pips (0.0250)
- Intraday: 20, 50, 80 pip subdivisions
Cryptocurrencies:
- Automatic price magnitude detection
- Adaptive spacing based on price:
* Under $0.10: Levels at $0.01, $0.05
* $0.10-$1: Levels at $0.10, $0.50
* $1-$10: Levels at $1, $5
* $10-$100: Levels at $10, $50
* $100-$1,000: Levels at $100, $500
* $1,000-$10,000: Levels at $1,000, $5,000
* Over $10,000: Levels at $5,000, $10,000
Indices & CFDs:
- Fixed point-based system
- Major: 500 point intervals (with 250 sub-levels)
- Standard: 100 point intervals
- Suitable for stock indices like SPX, NASDAQ
COMBINED LEVEL LABELS:
When multiple level types coincide at the same price:
- Single line drawn (highest priority color)
- Combined label shows all types
- Priority: Major > Standard > Mid > Intraday
Example Label Formats:
- "1.1000 Major" - Major level only
- "1.1000 Std + Major" - Both standard and major
- "50000 Intra + Mid + Std" - Three levels coincide

Visibility Settings:
1. Set Visible Range % (10% recommended for clarity)
2. Adjust Label Offset for readability
3. Configure performance limits if needed
Level Selection:
1. Enable/disable level types based on trading style
2. Adjust line counts for each type
3. Choose line styles and colors for visibility
TRADING STRATEGIES:
Breakout Trading:
1. Wait for price to approach major or standard level
2. Monitor for consolidation near level
3. Enter on confirmed break above/beyond level
4. Stop loss just beyond the broken level
5. Target: Next major or standard level
Rejection Trading:
1. Identify major psychological level
2. Wait for price to test the level
3. Look for rejection signals (wicks, bearish/bullish candles)
4. Enter in direction of rejection
5. Stop beyond the level
6. Target: Previous level or mid-level
Range Trading:
1. Identify range between two major levels
2. Buy at lower psychological level
3. Sell at upper psychological level
4. Use standard and mid-levels for position management
5. Exit if major level breaks with volume
Confluence Trading:
1. Look for combined levels (Std + Major)
2. These represent high-probability zones
3. Use as primary support/resistance
4. Increase position size at confluence
5. Expect stronger reactions at these levels
Session-Based Trading:
1. Note opening level at session start (Asian/London/NY)
2. Trade breakouts of major levels during high-volume sessions
3. London/NY sessions: More likely to break levels
4. Asian session: More likely to respect levels (range trading)
RISK MANAGEMENT WITH PSYCHOLOGICAL LEVELS:
Stop Loss Placement:
- Place stops just beyond psychological levels
- Add buffer (5-10 pips for forex)
- Avoid exact round numbers (stop hunting risk)
- Use previous major level as maximum stop
Take Profit Strategy:
- First target: Next standard level (partial profit)
- Second target: Next major level (remaining position)
- Trail stops to breakeven at first target
- Use distance table to calculate risk/reward
Position Sizing:
- Larger positions at major levels (higher probability)
- Smaller positions at intraday levels (lower probability)
- Scale in at standard levels between major levels
- Reduce size when multiple levels are close together
TIMEFRAME CONSIDERATIONS:
Higher Timeframes (4H, Daily, Weekly):
- Focus on Major and Standard levels only
- Disable Intraday and Mid levels
- Wider level spacing expected
- Use for swing trading and position trading
Lower Timeframes (5m, 15m, 1H):
- Enable all level types
- Use Intraday levels for precision
- Tighter level spacing acceptable
- Good for day trading and scalping
Multi-Timeframe Approach:
- Identify major levels on Daily/4H charts
- Refine entries using 15m/1H intraday levels
- Trade in direction of higher timeframe bias
- Use lower timeframe levels for position management

EDUCATIONAL DISCLAIMER
───────────────────────────────────────
This indicator identifies psychological price levels based on round numbers that tend to act as support and resistance. The methodology includes:
- Round number detection algorithms
- ATR-based dynamic spacing calculations
- Asset-specific level determination
- Distance percentage calculations
Psychological levels are a recognized concept in technical analysis, studied by traders and institutions. However, they do not guarantee price reactions and should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy including proper risk management, volume analysis, and price action confirmation.
───────────────────────────────────────
USAGE DISCLAIMER
───────────────────────────────────────
This tool is for educational and analytical purposes. Psychological levels can act as support or resistance but price reactions are not guaranteed. Dynamic spacing may generate different levels in different market conditions. Always conduct independent analysis, use proper risk management, and never risk capital you cannot afford to lose. Past performance does not indicate future results.

Original Concept: Sonar Lab
Forex Dynamic Lot Size CalculatorForex Dynamic Lot Size Calculator for Forex. Works on USD Base and USD Quote pairs. Provides real-time data based on stop-loss location. Allows you to know in real-time how the number of lots you need to purchase to match your risk %.
Number of Lots is calculated based on total risk. Total risk is calculated based on Stop-Loss + Commission + Spread Fees + Slippage measured in pips. Also includes data such as break-even pips, net take profit, margin required, buying power used, and a few others. All are real-time and anchored to the current price.
The intention of creating this indicator is to help with risk management. You know exactly how many lots you need to get this very moment to have your total risk at lets say $250, which includes commission fees, spread fees, and slippage.
To put it simply, if I was to enter the trade right now and willing to risk exactly $250, how many lots will I need to get right this second?
---
- To use adjust Account Settings along with other variables.
- Stop Loss Mode can be Manual or Dynamic. If you select Dynamic, then you will have to adjust Stop Loss Level to where you can see the reference line on the screen. It is at 1.1 by default. Just enter current price and the line will appear. Adjust it by dragging it to where you want your stop loss to be.
- Take Profit Mode can also be Manual or Dynamic. I just keep my TP at Manual and use Quick Access to set Quick RR levels.
- Adjust Spreads and Slippage to your liking. I tried to have TV calculate current spread, but it seem like it doesn't have access to real-life data for me like MT5 does. I just use average instead. Both are optional, depending on your broker and type of account you use.
- Pip Value for the current pair, Return on Margin, and Break-even line can be turned on and off, based on your needs. I just get the Break-even value in pips from the pannel and use that as reference where I need to relocate my stop loss to break-ever (commission + spreds + slippage).
- Panel is fully customizable based on your liking. Important fields are highlighted along with reference lines.
Relative Volume (Multi-TF, D, W, M)Relative Volume (Multi-TF, Candle-Matched Colors)
This indicator measures Relative Volume (RVOL) — the ratio of current volume to average historical volume — across any higher timeframe (Daily, Weekly, or Monthly) and displays it as color-coded columns that match the candle colors of the chart you’re viewing.
RVOL reveals how active today’s market participation is compared to its typical rhythm.
RVOL = 1.0 → normal volume
>1.5 → rising interest
>2.0–3.0 → strong institutional participation
>5.0 → climax or exhaustion levels
Features
Works on any chart timeframe while computing RVOL from your chosen higher timeframe (e.g., show Daily RVOL while trading on a 5-minute chart).
Column colors automatically match your chart’s candle colors (green/red/neutral).
Adjustable lookback period (len) and selectable source timeframe (D, W, or M).
Pre-drawn horizontal guide levels at 1.0, 1.2, 1.5, 2, 3, and 5 for quick interpretation.
Compatible with all chart types, including Heikin Ashi or custom color schemes.
Typical Use
Swing trading:
Look for quiet bases where RVOL stays 0.4–0.9, then expansion ≥2 on breakout days.
Confirm follow-through when green days keep RVOL ≥1.2–1.5 and red pullbacks stay below 1.0.
Day trading:
Watch intraday RVOL (on 1–5m charts) for bursts ≥2 that sustain for several bars — this signals crowd engagement and valid momentum.
Interpretation Summary
RVOL Value Meaning Typical Action
0.4–0.9 Quiet base / low interest Watch for setup
1.0 Normal activity Neutral
1.2–1.5 Valid participation Early confirmation
2–3 Strong expansion Momentum / breakout
≥5 Climax / exhaustion Take profits or avoid new entries
Author’s note:
RVOL isn’t directional; it tells how many players are active, not who’s winning. Combine it with structure (levels, VWAP, or trend) to see when the market crowd truly commits.
VWAP & Band Cross Strategy v6VWAP & Band Cross Strategy v6: Script Summary
This Pine Script implements a highly flexible, multi-layered trading strategy centered around the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) and its associated Standard Deviation Bands.
The strategy is designed to test various entry/exit models based on how the price interacts with the central VWAP line and the upper/lower volatility bands, with extensive risk management and confirmation filters.
1. Core Mechanics (VWAP & Bands)
VWAP Calculation: Calculates the VWAP based on a user-defined source (default is the close price).
Standard Deviation Bands: Creates upper and lower bands by calculating the standard deviation of the price (over 20 periods by default) and multiplying it by a user-defined Multiplier (default is 2.0). These bands dynamically expand and contract with volatility.
Plotting: The script clearly plots the VWAP (purple), the Upper Band (green), and the Lower Band (red), with a colored fill between the bands.
2. Entry Triggers
The core entry logic is based on a single, user-selected cross event between the price and the VWAP/Bands. The user can choose from six predefined entry types:
Entry Type Category
Entry Trigger (Long)
Entry Trigger (Short)
Mean Reversion
Price crosses over the Lower Band.
Price crosses under the Upper Band.
Trend Following
Price crosses over the Upper Band (Breakout).
Price crosses under the Lower Band (Breakout).
VWAP Cross
Price crosses over the VWAP.
Price crosses under the VWAP.
3. Filters and Confirmation
Trades are only executed if they pass a series of optional filters, making the strategy highly customizable:
Technical Confirmation (Optional): Users can enable and configure up to three additional indicators that must align with the trade direction:
RSI: Price must be Oversold (for Long) or Overbought (for Short).
SMMA: Price must be above the SMMA (for Long) or below (for Short).
MACD: MACD line must cross the Signal line and the Histogram must be positive/negative.
Time and Day Filters: Trades are restricted to a defined Entry Start/End Hour/Minute window, and only execute on user-selected Trading Days of the week.
Trade Direction: Can be toggled to execute Long Only, Short Only, or Both.
4. Advanced Risk Management (Daily Limits)
The strategy incorporates robust daily limits that reset at a configured Daily Reset Hour/Minute:
Daily Profit/Loss Limits: If the running total of Realized PnL (closed trades) + Unrealized PnL (open position) exceeds a user-defined Daily Take Profit (in Ticks) or falls below the Daily Stop Loss (in Ticks), the strategy locks out new trades and immediately closes any open position.
Max Daily Trades: Prevents the strategy from entering more than a specified number of trades per day.
5. Exit Logic
The strategy exit is also highly configurable via the Exit Type setting:
Fixed Ticks / ATR / Capped ATR: If one of these is selected, the script calculates a static Stop Loss and Take Profit level upon entry, using either fixed tick values or dynamic values based on the Average True Range (ATR), which are then executed using Pine Script's strategy.exit function.
Cross Exits (VWAP/Bands): If selected, the position is closed when the price crosses the VWAP or a specific band in the opposite direction.
End-of-Day Close: An unconditional exit that closes all open positions at a user-defined Close All Hour/Minute, regardless of profit/loss or limit status, preventing positions from being held overnight.

Amiya's Doji / Hammer / Spinning Top Breakout Strategy v5How it works
1. Pattern Detection (Previous Candle):
• Checks if total shadow length ≥ 2 × body.
• Checks if candle height (high − low) is between 10 and 21.5 points.
• If true → marks that candle as a potential Doji, Hammer, or Spinning Top.
2. Long Setup:
• LTP (close) crosses above previous candle high.
• Previous candle is a valid pattern candle.
• Stop Loss = 3 points below previous candle low.
• Take Profit = 5 × (high − low) of previous candle added to previous high.
3. Short Setup:
• LTP (close) crosses below previous candle low.
• Previous candle is a valid pattern candle.
• Stop Loss = 3 points above previous candle high.
• Take Profit = 5 × (high − low) of previous candle subtracted from previous low.
4. Visualization:
• Yellow background highlights pattern candles.
• Green ▲ and Red ▼ markers show entry points.
Deep yellow candles → represent Doji / Hammer / Spinning Top patterns
• Green triangle → Buy signal
• Red triangle → Sell signal
• Dotted green line + label → Target
• Dotted red line + label → Stop loss
• Gray background → Outside trading hours
• Auto close → All trades square off at 3:29 PM IST
Stock Fundamental Overlay [DarwinDarma]Stock Fundamental Overlay
Stock Fundamental Overlay is a comprehensive valuation indicator that displays multiple fundamental analysis metrics directly on your price chart.
Key Features:
• Graham Number - Benjamin Graham's intrinsic value formula
• Book Value Per Share (BVPS) - Net asset value baseline
• DCF Valuation - Discounted Cash Flow analysis (non-financial stocks)
• DDM Valuation - Dividend Discount Model (dividend-paying stocks)
• Visual Value Zones - Color-coded undervalued/overvalued regions
• Real-time Fundamental Table - Live metrics and valuations
• Price vs Graham Comparison - Quick valuation assessment
• Built-in Alerts - Notification when price crosses key levels
Valuation Models:
• Graham Number: √(22.5 × EPS × BVPS)
• DCF: Customizable discount rate, growth rate, and forecast period
• DDM: Gordon Growth Model for dividend analysis
Visual Elements:
• Plot lines for BVPS, Graham Number, and DCF values
• Shaded value zone between BVPS and Graham Number
• Background coloring: Deep value (below BVPS), Undervalued (below Graham), Overvalued (>1.5x Graham)
• Dynamic table showing all metrics with theme-aware text colors
Special Handling:
• Financial sector detection - DCF disabled for banks/financials where FCF metrics are distorted
• Automatic light/dark theme adaptation
• TTM (Trailing Twelve Months) data for current metrics
How to Use - Value Investing Approach:
1. Identifying Undervalued Stocks:
• Look for price trading BELOW the Graham Number (green zone) - potential value opportunity
• Deep value: Price below BVPS indicates trading below net asset value
• Check "Price vs Graham" % in table - negative values suggest undervaluation
• Compare multiple models: When price is below Graham, DCF, and BVPS simultaneously, stronger buy signal
2. Margin of Safety:
• Benjamin Graham recommended buying at 2/3 of intrinsic value (33% margin of safety)
• Monitor the gap between current price and valuation lines
• Larger gaps = greater margin of safety = lower downside risk
• Use the shaded "Value Zone" as your target buying range
3. Setting Alerts:
• "Price Below Graham Number" - Notifies when stock enters value territory
• "Price Below Book Value" - Extreme value alert for deep value hunters
• "Price Below DCF Value" - Cash flow-based value signal
• Set alerts on watchlist stocks to catch value opportunities
4. Customizing for Your Strategy:
• Conservative investors: Use lower growth rates (3-4%) and higher discount rates (12-15%)
• Growth-value investors: Adjust growth rate (6-8%) for quality compounders
• Dividend investors: Focus on DDM value and Div/Share metrics
• Adjust forecast years based on business predictability (stable = 10 years, cyclical = 5 years)
5. Red Flags to Avoid:
• Negative EPS or FCF (red values in table) - proceed with caution
• Financial sector stocks - Use DDM and Graham, ignore DCF
• Price far above Graham (>1.5x) with red background = overvalued territory
• No fundamental data = "N/A" in table - stock may lack reporting or be too small
• Stock persistently below BVPS for extended periods - potential value trap or business in distress
• Price significantly above ALL models (BVPS, Graham, DCF) - sentiment-driven, lacks intrinsic value foundation (fragile)
⚠️ Important Value Investing Warnings:
• Value Trap Alert: A stock staying below BVPS for months/years may signal fundamental deterioration, asset impairments, or dying industry - not just "cheap." Investigate WHY it's cheap before buying
• Sentiment Bubble Risk: When price trades far above BVPS, Graham Number, AND DCF simultaneously, the stock has no intrinsic value basis. Examples: commodity stocks during boom cycles (gold miners in gold rallies), meme stocks, hype-driven sectors. These are highly fragile and vulnerable to mean reversion
• Cyclical Trap: Commodity/cyclical stocks can appear "cheap" at peak earnings (low P/E, high FCF) but are actually expensive. Normalize earnings across the cycle before valuing
• Quality Matters: Some excellent businesses (asset-light, high ROIC) naturally trade above book value. Don't avoid quality - adjust expectations for business model
6. Monitoring Positions:
• Watch for price approaching or exceeding Graham Number - consider taking profits
• Track EPS and FCF trends quarter-to-quarter in the table
• If fundamentals deteriorate (falling BVPS, negative FCF), reassess thesis
• Use background colors for quick visual check: green = hold/buy, red = overvalued
Perfect for:
Value investors seeking multi-model fundamental analysis, long-term investors comparing intrinsic value to market price, dividend investors evaluating yield stocks, and fundamental traders looking for entry/exit signals.
Note: Only works with stocks that have financial data available. Not applicable to crypto, forex, or futures. This indicator provides analysis tools; always conduct thorough research and due diligence before investing.
UTS CORE + BOS + CHOCH – RR/TP/SL 📊 Indicator Working Principle
### 🔹 1. BOS (Break of Structure)
* **Definition:** Occurs when the price breaks the previous swing high or swing low level.
* **Interpretation:**
* If the last high is broken upwards → **Bullish BOS** (confirmation of uptrend).
* If the last low is broken downwards → **Bearish BOS** (confirmation of downtrend).
---
### 🔹 2. CHOCH (Change of Character)
* **Definition:** Indicates a trend reversal.
* **Interpretation:**
* In an uptrend, if the last low is broken downwards → **CHOCH↓** (start of downtrend).
* In a downtrend, if the last high is broken upwards → **CHOCH↑** (start of uptrend).
* **Chart:** Blue “CHOCH↑” labels on the chart mark trend reversals.
---
### 🔹 3. FVG (Fair Value Gap)
* **Definition:** A price gap formed between 3 candles.
* **Logic:**
* If the low of one candle stays above the high of the candle two bars back, a gap is created.
* Price tends to return to these gaps to “fill” them.
* **Chart:** The indicator highlights these gaps automatically (green/purple lines).
---
### 🔹 4. Signal Generation (BUY / SELL)
* A valid BOS or CHOCH confirmation + presence of FVG → **signal is triggered.**
* **Rules:**
* Upward break → **BUY signal**
* Downward break → **SELL signal**
* **Chart:** Red “SELL” and green “BUY” labels represent these trade signals.
---
### 🔹 5. RR – TP/SL Management
* When a trade is opened, the indicator automatically calculates **Entry, Stop Loss (SL), and Take Profits (TP1, TP2, TP3).**
* **Risk/Reward ratios:**
* TP1 = 1R
* TP2 = 2R
* TP3 = 3R
* If TP1 is hit and “Breakeven” option is enabled → SL moves to entry (risk-free trade).
---
👉 In short: this indicator tracks **market structure (BOS/CHOCH)**, detects **imbalances (FVG)**, and combines them with **risk/reward management (TP/SL)** to give you a ready-made trade
[LTS] Marubozu Candle StrategyOVERVIEW
The Marubozu Candle Strategy identifies and trades wickless candles (Marubozu patterns) with dynamic take-profit and stop-loss levels based on market volatility. This indicator combines traditional Japanese candlestick pattern recognition with modern volatility-adjusted risk management and includes a comprehensive performance tracking dashboard.
A Marubozu candle is a powerful continuation pattern characterized by the complete absence of wicks on one side, indicating strong directional momentum. This strategy specifically detects:
- Bullish Marubozu: Close > Open AND Low = Open (no lower wick)
- Bearish Marubozu: Close < Open AND High = Open (no upper wick)
When price returns to test these levels, the indicator generates trading signals with predefined risk-reward parameters.
CORE METHODOLOGY
Detection Logic:
The script scans each bar for Marubozu formations using precise price comparisons. When a wickless candle appears, a horizontal line extends from the opening price, marking it as a potential support (bullish) or resistance (bearish) level. These levels remain active until price touches them or until the maximum line limit is reached.
EMA Filter (Optional):
An exponential moving average filter enhances signal quality by requiring proper trend alignment. For bullish signals, price must be above the EMA when touching the level. For bearish signals, price must be below the EMA. This filter reduces counter-trend trades and improves win rates in trending markets. Users can disable this filter for range-bound conditions.
Dynamic Risk Management:
The strategy employs ATR-based (Average True Range) position sizing rather than fixed point values. This approach adapts to market volatility automatically:
- In low volatility: Tighter stops and targets
- In high volatility: Wider stops and targets proportional to market movement
Default settings use a 2:1 reward-to-risk ratio (1x ATR for take-profit, 0.5x ATR for stop-loss), but users can adjust these multipliers to match their trading style.
HOW IT WORKS
Step 1 - Pattern Detection:
On each bar, the indicator evaluates whether the candle qualifies as a Marubozu by comparing the high, low, open, and close prices. When detected, the opening price becomes the key level.
Step 2 - Level Management:
Horizontal lines extend from each Marubozu's opening price. The indicator maintains two separate arrays: one for unbroken levels (actively extending) and one for broken levels (historical reference). Users can configure how many of each type to display, preventing chart clutter while maintaining relevant context.
Step 3 - Signal Generation:
When price returns to touch a Marubozu level, the indicator evaluates the EMA filter condition. If the filter passes (or is disabled), the script draws TP/SL boxes showing the expected profit and loss zones based on current ATR values.
Step 4 - Trade Tracking:
Each valid signal enters the tracking system, which monitors subsequent price action to determine outcomes. The script identifies whether the take-profit or stop-loss was hit first (discarding trades where both trigger on the same candle to avoid ambiguous results).
PERFORMANCE DASHBOARD
The integrated dashboard provides real-time strategy analytics to automatically convert results to dollar values for any instrument:
Tracked Metrics:
- Total Trades: Complete count of closed positions
- Wins/Losses: Individual counts with color coding
- Win Rate: Success percentage with dynamic color (green >= 50%, red < 50%)
- Total P&L: Cumulative profit/loss in dollars
- Avg Win: Mean dollar amount per winning trade
- Avg Loss: Mean dollar amount per losing trade
NOTE: The dollar values shown in the dashboard are for trading only a single share/contract/etc. You will need to manually multiply those numbers by the amount of shares/contracts you are trading to get a true value.
The dollar conversion works automatically across all markets:
- Futures contracts (ES, NQ, CL, etc.) use their contract specifications
- Forex pairs use standard lot calculations
- Stocks and crypto use their respective point values
This eliminates manual calculation and provides immediate performance feedback in meaningful currency terms.

Hyper SAR Reactor Trend StrategyHyperSAR Reactor Adaptive PSAR Strategy
Summary
Adaptive Parabolic SAR strategy for liquid stocks, ETFs, futures, and crypto across intraday to daily timeframes. It acts only when an adaptive trail flips and confirmation gates agree. Originality comes from a logistic boost of the SAR acceleration using drift versus ATR, plus ATR hysteresis, inertia on the trail, and a bear-only gate for shorts. Add to a clean chart and run on bar close for conservative alerts.
Scope and intent
• Markets: large cap equities and ETFs, index futures, major FX, liquid crypto
• Timeframes: one minute to daily
• Default demo: BTC on 60 minute
• Purpose: faster yet calmer PSAR that resists chop and improves short discipline
• Limits: this is a strategy that places simulated orders on standard candles
Originality and usefulness
• Novel fusion: PSAR AF is boosted by a logistic function of normalized drift, trail is monotone with inertia, entries use ATR buffers and optional cooldown, shorts are allowed only in a bear bias
• Addresses false flips in low volatility and weak downtrends
• All controls are exposed in Inputs for testability
• Yardstick: ATR normalizes drift so settings port across symbols
• Open source. No links. No solicitation
Method overview
Components
• Adaptive AF: base step plus boost factor times logistic strength
• Trail inertia: one sided blend that keeps the SAR monotone
• Flip hysteresis: price must clear SAR by a buffer times ATR
• Volatility gate: ATR over its mean must exceed a ratio
• Bear bias for shorts: price below EMA of length 91 with negative slope window 54
• Cooldown bars optional after any entry
• Visual SAR smoothing is cosmetic and does not drive orders
Fusion rule
Entry requires the internal flip plus all enabled gates. No weighted scores.
Signal rule
• Long when trend flips up and close is above SAR plus buffer times ATR and gates pass
• Short when trend flips down and close is below SAR minus buffer times ATR and gates pass
• Exit uses SAR as stop and optional ATR take profit per side

RSI Colored by Relative StrengthThis indicator enhances the traditional RSI by combining it with Relative Strength (RS) — the ratio of an asset’s price to a chosen benchmark (e.g., SPY, QQQ, BTCUSD) — to create a more accurate, powerful, and dynamic momentum confirmation tool.
Instead of relying solely on RSI’s internal momentum, this version color-codes RSI values and backgrounds based on whether the asset is outperforming, underperforming, or neutral relative to the benchmark, not only identifying the RSI value, but color codes it in relation to the overall market to give more accurate confirmations.
• RS > 1 → The asset is outperforming the benchmark (relative strength).
• RS < 1 → The asset is underperforming.
• RS ≈ 1 → Neutral or moving in sync with the benchmark.
Gradient background zones:
• Green tones = outperformance (RS > 1).
• Red tones = underperformance (RS < 1).
• Gray neutral band = parity (RS ≈ 1).
Intensity adjusts dynamically based on how far RS deviates from 1, giving an at-a-glance view of market leadership strength.
• Color-coded RSI line: Green when RS > 1, red when RS < 1.
• Optional markers and labels show confirmed RS+RSI crossovers with smart spacing to prevent clutter.
• Alerts included for bullish and bearish RS+RSI alignment events.
How to Use
1. Add your preferred benchmark symbol (default: SPY).
2. Move this indicator into the same pane as your RSI (No need to overlay, does so automatically) and can also be used standalone.
3. Watch for:
• Green RSI & background: Significant momentum strength (asset trending upward and outpacing the market).
• Red RSI & background: False or insignificant momentum (asset lagging).
• Gray zone: neutral phase — consolidation or rotation period.
Use this as a trend-confirmation filter rather than a signal generator.
For example:
• Confirm and refine breakout entries when RS > 1 (RSI support = stronger conviction).
• Take profits when RSI weakens and RS slips below 1.
TriAnchor Elastic Reversion US Market SPY and QQQ adaptedSummary in one paragraph
Mean-reversion strategy for liquid ETFs, index futures, large-cap equities, and major crypto on intraday to daily timeframes. It waits for three anchored VWAP stretches to become statistically extreme, aligns with bar-shape and breadth, and fades the move. Originality comes from fusing daily, weekly, and monthly AVWAP distances into a single ATR-normalized energy percentile, then gating with a robust Z-score and a session-safe gap filter.
Scope and intent
• Markets: SPY QQQ IWM NDX large caps liquid futures liquid crypto
• Timeframes: 5 min to 1 day
• Default demo: SPY on 60 min
• Purpose: fade stretched moves only when multi-anchor context and breadth agree
• Limits: strategy uses standard candles for signals and orders only
Originality and usefulness
• Unique fusion: tri-anchor AVWAP energy percentile plus robust Z of close plus shape-in-range gate plus breadth Z of SPY QQQ IWM
• Failure mode addressed: chasing extended moves and fading during index-wide thrusts
• Testability: each component is an input and visible in orders list via L and S tags
• Portable yardstick: distances are ATR-normalized so thresholds transfer across symbols
• Open source: method and implementation are disclosed for community review
Method overview in plain language
Base measures
• Range basis: ATR(length = atr_len) as the normalization unit
• Return basis: not used directly; we use rank statistics for stability
Components
• Tri-Anchor Energy: squared distances of price from daily, weekly, monthly AVWAPs, each divided by ATR, then summed and ranked to a percentile over base_len
• Robust Z of Close: median and MAD based Z to avoid outliers
• Shape Gate: position of close inside bar range to require capitulation for longs and exhaustion for shorts
• Breadth Gate: average robust Z of SPY QQQ IWM to avoid fading when the tape is one-sided
• Gap Shock: skip signals after large session gaps
Fusion rule
• All required gates must be true: Energy ≥ energy_trig_prc, |Robust Z| ≥ z_trig, Shape satisfied, Breadth confirmed, Gap filter clear
Signal rule
• Long: energy extreme, Z negative beyond threshold, close near bar low, breadth Z ≤ −breadth_z_ok
• Short: energy extreme, Z positive beyond threshold, close near bar high, breadth Z ≥ +breadth_z_ok
What you will see on the chart
• Standard strategy arrows for entries and exits
• Optional short-side brackets: ATR stop and ATR take profit if enabled
Inputs with guidance
Setup
• Base length: window for percentile ranks and medians. Typical 40 to 80. Longer smooths, shorter reacts.
• ATR length: normalization unit. Typical 10 to 20. Higher reduces noise.
• VWAP band stdev: volatility bands for anchors. Typical 2.0 to 4.0.
• Robust Z window: 40 to 100. Larger for stability.
• Robust Z entry magnitude: 1.2 to 2.2. Higher means stronger extremes only.
• Energy percentile trigger: 90 to 99.5. Higher limits signals to rare stretches.
• Bar close in range gate long: 0.05 to 0.25. Larger requires deeper capitulation for longs.
Regime and Breadth
• Use breadth gate: on when trading indices or broad ETFs.
• Breadth Z confirm magnitude: 0.8 to 1.8. Higher avoids fighting thrusts.
• Gap shock percent: 1.0 to 5.0. Larger allows more gaps to trade.
Risk — Short only
• Enable short SL TP: on to bracket shorts.
• Short ATR stop mult: 1.0 to 3.0.
• Short ATR take profit mult: 1.0 to 6.0.

HTF Candles with PVSRA Volume Coloring (PCS Series)This indicator displays higher timeframe (HTF) candles using a PVSRA-inspired color model that blends price and volume strength, allowing traders to visualize higher-timeframe activity directly on lower-timeframe charts without switching screens.
OVERVIEW
This script visualizes higher-timeframe (HTF) candles directly on lower-timeframe charts using a custom PVSRA (Price, Volume & Support/Resistance Analysis) color model.
Unlike standard HTF indicators, it aggregates real-time OHLC and volume data bar-by-bar and dynamically draws synthetic HTF candles that update as the higher-timeframe bar evolves.
This allows traders to interpret momentum, trend continuation, and volume pressure from broader market structures without switching charts.
INTEGRATION LOGIC
This script merges higher-timeframe candle projection with PVSRA volume analysis to provide a single, multi-timeframe momentum view.
The HTF structure reveals directional context, while PVSRA coloring exposes the underlying strength of buying and selling pressure.
By combining both, traders can see when a higher-timeframe candle is building with strong or weak volume, enabling more informed intraday decisions than either tool could offer alone.
HOW IT WORKS
Aggregates price data : Groups lower-timeframe bars to calculate higher-timeframe Open, High, Low, Close, and total Volume.
Applies PVSRA logic : Compares each HTF candle’s volume to the average of the last 10 bars:
• >200% of average = strong activity
• >150% of average = moderate activity
• ≤150% = normal activity
Assigns colors :
• Green/Blue = bullish high-volume
• Red/Fuchsia = bearish high-volume
• White/Gray = neutral or low-volume moves
Draws dynamic outlines : Outlines update live while the current HTF candle is forming.
Supports symbol override : Calculations can use another instrument for correlation analysis.
This multi-timeframe aggregation avoids repainting issues in request.security() and ensures accurate real-time HTF representation.
FEATURES
Dual HTF Display : Visualize two higher timeframes simultaneously (e.g., 4H and 1D).
Dynamic PVSRA Coloring : Volume-weighted candle colors reveal bullish or bearish dominance.
Customizable Layout : Adjust candle width, spacing, offset, and color schemes.
Candle Outlines : Highlight the forming HTF candle to monitor developing structure.
Symbol Override : Display HTF candles from another instrument for cross-analysis.
SETTINGS
HTF 1 & HTF 2 : enable/disable, set timeframes, choose label colors, show/hide outlines.
Number of Candles : choose how many HTF candles to plot (1–10).
Offset Position : distance to the right of the current price where HTF candles begin.
Spacing & Width : adjust separation and scaling of candle groups.
Show Wicks/Borders : toggle wick and border visibility.
PVSRA Colors : enable or disable volume-based coloring.
Symbol Override : use a secondary ticker for HTF data if desired.
USAGE TIPS
Set the indicator’s visual order to “Bring to front.”
Always choose HTFs higher than your active chart timeframe.
Use PVSRA colors to identify strong momentum and potential reversals.
Adjust candle spacing and width for your chart layout.
Outlines are not shown on chart timeframes below 5 minutes.
TRADING STRATEGY
Strategy Overview : Combine HTF structure and PVSRA volume signals to
• Identify zones of high institutional activity and potential reversals.
• Wait for confirmation through consolidation or a pullback to key levels.
• Trade in alignment with dominant higher-timeframe structure rather than chasing volatility.
Setup :
• Chart timeframe: lower (5m, 15m, 1H)
• HTF 1: 4H or 1D
• HTF 2: 1D or 1W
• PVSRA Colors: enabled
• Outlines: enabled
Entry Concept :
High-volume candles (green or red) often indicate market-maker activity , such zones often reflect liquidity absorption by larger players and are not necessarily ideal entry points.
Wait for the next consolidation or pullback toward a support or resistance level before acting.
Bullish scenario :
• After a high-volume or rejection candle near a low, price consolidates and forms a higher low.
• Enter long only when structure confirms strength above support.
Bearish scenario :
• After a high-volume or rejection candle near a top, price consolidates and forms a lower high.
• Enter short once resistance holds and momentum weakens.
Exit Guidelines :
• Exit when next HTF candle shifts in color or momentum fades.
• Exit if price structure breaks opposite to your trade direction.
• Always use stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Additional Tips :
• Never enter directly on strong green/red high-volume candles, these are usually areas of institutional absorption.
• Wait for market structure confirmation and volume normalization.
• Combine with RSI, moving averages, or support/resistance for timing.
• Avoid trading when HTF candles are mixed or low-volume (unclear bias).
• Outlines hidden below 5m charts.
Risk Management :
• Use stop-loss and take-profit on all positions.
• Limit risk to 1–2% per trade.
• Adjust position size for volatility.
