🚀 A powerful indicator for tracking key trading sessions and the highs and lows of each session!
📌 Description
The Trading Sessions Highs/Lows indicator visually marks the most critical trading sessions—Asia, London, and New York—using small colored dots at the bottom of the candle. It also tracks and plots the highs and lows of each session, along with the Daily Open and Weekly Open levels.
This tool is designed to help traders identify session-based liquidity zones, price reactions, and potential trade setups with minimal chart clutter.
Key Features:
✅ Session markers (Asia, London, NY AM, NY Lunch, NY PM) plotted as small dots
✅ Plots session highs and lows for market structure insights
✅ Daily Open line for intraday reference
✅ Weekly Open line for higher timeframe bias
✅ Alerts for session high/low breaks to capture momentum shifts
✅ User-defined UTC offset for global traders
✅ Customizable session colors for personal preference
📖 How to Use the Indicator
1️⃣ Understanding the Sessions
Asia Session (Yellow Dot) → Marks liquidity buildup & pre-London moves
London Session (Blue Dot) → Strong volatility, breakout opportunities
New York AM Session (Green Dot) → Major trends & institutional participation
New York Lunch (Red Dot) → Low volume, ranging market
New York PM Session (Dark Green Dot) → End-of-day movements & reversals
2️⃣ Session Highs & Lows for Market Structure
Session Highs can act as resistance or breakout points.
Session Lows can act as support or stop-hunt zones.
Break of a session high/low with volume may indicate continuation or reversal.
3️⃣ Using the Daily & Weekly Open
The Daily Open (Black Line) helps gauge the intraday trend.
Above Daily Open → Bearish Bias
Below Daily Open → Bullish Bias
The Weekly Open (Red Line) sets the higher timeframe directional bias.
4️⃣ Alerts for Breakouts
The indicator will trigger alerts when price breaks session highs or lows.
Useful for setting stop-losses, breakout trades, and risk management.
💡 Why This Indicator is Important for Beginners
1️⃣ Avoids Overtrading:
Many beginners trade in low-volume periods (NY Lunch, Asia session) and get stuck in choppy price action.
This indicator highlights when volatility is high so traders focus on better opportunities.
2️⃣ Session-Based Liquidity Traps:
Market makers often run stops at session highs/lows before reversing.
Watching session breaks prevents traders from falling into liquidity grabs.
3️⃣ Reduces Emotional Trading:
If price is above the Daily Open, a beginner shouldn’t look for shorts.
If price is below a key session low, it may signal a fake breakout.
4️⃣ Aligns with Institutional Trading:
Smart money traders use session highs/lows to set stop hunts & reversals.
Beginners can use this indicator to spot these zones before entering trades.
🛡️ How to Mitigate Risk with This Indicator
✅ Wait for Confirmations – Don’t trade blindly at session highs/lows. Look for wicks, rejections, or break/retests.
✅ Use Stop-Loss Above/Below Session Levels – If you’re going long, set SL below a session low. If short, set SL above a session high.
✅ Watch Volume & News Events – Breakouts without strong volume or news may be fake moves.
✅ Combine with Other Strategies – Use price action, trendlines, or EMAs with this indicator for higher probability trades.
✅ Use the Weekly Open for Trend Bias – If price stays below the Weekly Open, avoid bullish setups unless key support holds.
🎯 Who is This Indicator For?
📌 Beginners who need clear session-based trading levels.
📌 Day traders & scalpers looking to refine their intraday setups.
📌 Smart money traders using liquidity concepts.
📌 Swing traders tracking higher timeframe momentum shifts.
🚀 Final Thoughts
This indicator is an essential tool for traders who want to understand market structure, liquidity, and volatility cycles. Whether you’re trading forex, stocks, or crypto, it helps you stay on the right side of the market and avoid unnecessary risks.

True Liquidity BlocksSo basically I've been deep diving into liquidity trading concepts similar to ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and developed an indicator that breaks down market movement through a volume-centric lens.
Key Concept:
Markets move not just by price, but by resolving trapped positions
Volume segments, not time intervals, show true market dynamics
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) becomes a key structural reference
What Makes This Different:
Tracks volume segments instead of fixed time frames
Identifies "trapped" trader positions
Measures liquidity level efficiency
Color-codes bars based on nearest liquidity zone
Indicator Features:
Cyan/Red liquidity levels showing buy/sell pressure
Efficiency tracking for each level
Dynamic volume-based segmentation
Bar coloring to show nearest liquidity zone
Theoretical Inspiration: Viewed markets as energy systems where:
Positions create potential energy
Price movement resolves this energy
Trends form through systematic position liquidation
VWAP Recalculation in Each Segment:
Segment Start:
VWAP resets when volume threshold User Inputtable (600,000) is reached
Uses the last 4 price values (High, Low, Close, Close) for calculation
Weighted by volume traded during that segment
Calculation Method:
pineCopy = ta.vwap(hlcc4, na(segment_start) ? true : na, 1)
hlcc4: Combines high, low, close prices
na(segment_start): Ensures reset at new segment
Weighted by volume, not equal time intervals
Key Points:
Dynamic recalculation each segment
Reflects most recent trading activity
Provides real-time fair price reference
Tracks positioning
Essentially, VWAP resets and recalculates with each new volume segment, creating a rolling, volume-weighted average price that maps trader positioning.
BSL (Buy Side Liquidity) and SSL (Sell Side Liquidity) Explained:
When a volume segment closes relative to VWAP, it creates natural positioning traps:
BSL (Cyan) - Created when price closes BELOW THAT SEGMENT'S VWAP:
Bulls are positioned BELOW VWAP (trapped)
Shorts are positioned ABOVE VWAP (In Profit)
SSL (Red) - Created when price closes ABOVE THAT SEGMENT"S VWAP:
Bulls are positioned ABOVE VWAP (trapped)
Shorts are positioned BELOW VWAP (trapped)
Core Mechanism:
VWAP acts as a reference point for trader positioning
Trapped positions create inherent market tension
Levels expand to show accumulating pressure
Color-coded for quick identification of potential move direction
The goal: Visualize where traders are likely "stuck" and must eventually resolve their positions or liquidate other's, driving market movement.
It was just a fun experiment but If ya'll have any thoughts on it or what I could do to improve it, I would appreciate it.
Just a little note, It's optimized for futures, but if u uncheck the "Rest at Futures Open ?" setting, it allow full reign of any asset with volume data.

On-Chain Analysis [LuxAlgo]The On-Chain Analysis tool offers a comprehensive overview of essential on-chain metrics, enabling traders and investors to grasp the underlying activity and sentiment within the cryptocurrency market. By integrating metrics like wallet profitability, exchange flows, on-chain volume, social sentiment, and more into your charts, users can gain valuable insights into cryptocurrency network behavior, spot emerging trends, and better manage risk in the cryptocurrency market.
🔶 USAGE
🔹 On-Chain Analysis
When analyzing cryptocurrencies, several fundamental metrics are crucial for assessing the value and potential of a digital asset. This indicator is designed to help traders and analysts evaluate the markets by utilizing various data gathered directly from the blockchain. The gathered on-chain data includes wallet profitability, exchange flows, miner flows, on-chain volume, large buyers/sellers, market capitalization, market dominance, active addresses, total value locked (TVL), market value to realized value (MVRV), developer activity, social sentiment, holder behavior, and balance types.
Use wallet profitability and social sentiment metrics to gauge the overall mood of the market, helping to anticipate potential buying or selling pressure.
On-chain volume and active addresses provide insights into how actively a cryptocurrency is being used, indicating network health and adoption levels.
By tracking exchange flows and holder balance types, you can identify significant moves by whales or institutions, which may signal upcoming price shifts.
Market capitalization and miner flows give you an understanding of the supply side of the market, aiding in evaluating whether an asset is overvalued or undervalued.
The distribution of holdings among retail investors, whales, and institutional groups can greatly influence market dynamics. A large concentration of holdings by whales may indicate the potential for significant price swings, given their capacity to execute substantial trades. A higher proportion of institutional investors often suggests confidence in the asset's long-term potential, as these entities typically conduct thorough research before investing. While retail participation indicates broader adoption, it also introduces higher volatility, as these investors tend to be more reactive to market fluctuations.
Understanding the balance and behavior of short-term traders, mid-term cruisers, and long-term hodlers helps traders and analysts predict market trends and assess the underlying confidence in a particular cryptocurrency.

Market-Sentiment-Technicals
Volatility IndicatorThe volatility indicator presented here is based on multiple volatility indices that reflect the market’s expectation of future price fluctuations across different asset classes, including equities, commodities, and currencies. These indices serve as valuable tools for traders and analysts seeking to anticipate potential market movements, as volatility is a key factor influencing asset prices and market dynamics (Bollerslev, 1986).
Volatility, defined as the magnitude of price changes, is often regarded as a measure of market uncertainty or risk. Financial markets exhibit periods of heightened volatility that may precede significant price movements, whether upward or downward (Christoffersen, 1998). The indicator presented in this script tracks several key volatility indices, including the VIX (S&P 500), GVZ (Gold), OVX (Crude Oil), and others, to help identify periods of increased uncertainty that could signal potential market turning points.
Volatility Indices and Their Relevance
Volatility indices like the VIX are considered “fear gauges” as they reflect the market’s expectation of future volatility derived from the pricing of options. A rising VIX typically signals increasing investor uncertainty and fear, which often precedes market corrections or significant price movements. In contrast, a falling VIX may suggest complacency or confidence in continued market stability (Whaley, 2000).
The other volatility indices incorporated in the indicator script, such as the GVZ (Gold Volatility Index) and OVX (Oil Volatility Index), capture the market’s perception of volatility in specific asset classes. For instance, GVZ reflects market expectations for volatility in the gold market, which can be influenced by factors such as geopolitical instability, inflation expectations, and changes in investor sentiment toward safe-haven assets. Similarly, OVX tracks the implied volatility of crude oil options, which is a crucial factor for predicting price movements in energy markets, often driven by geopolitical events, OPEC decisions, and supply-demand imbalances (Pindyck, 2004).
Using the Indicator to Identify Market Movements
The volatility indicator alerts traders when specific volatility indices exceed a defined threshold, which may signal a change in market sentiment or an upcoming price movement. These thresholds, set by the user, are typically based on historical levels of volatility that have preceded significant market changes. When a volatility index exceeds this threshold, it suggests that market participants expect greater uncertainty, which often correlates with increased price volatility and the possibility of a trend reversal.
For example, if the VIX exceeds a pre-determined level (e.g., 30), it could indicate that investors are anticipating heightened volatility in the equity markets, potentially signaling a downturn or correction in the broader market. On the other hand, if the OVX rises significantly, it could point to an upcoming sharp movement in crude oil prices, driven by changing market expectations about supply, demand, or geopolitical risks (Geman, 2005).
Practical Application
To effectively use this volatility indicator in market analysis, traders should monitor the alert signals generated when any of the volatility indices surpass their thresholds. This can be used to identify periods of market uncertainty or potential market turning points across different sectors, including equities, commodities, and currencies. The indicator can help traders prepare for increased price movements, adjust their risk management strategies, or even take advantage of anticipated price swings through options trading or volatility-based strategies (Black & Scholes, 1973).
Traders may also use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to validate the potential for significant market movements. For example, if the VIX exceeds its threshold and the market is simultaneously approaching a critical technical support or resistance level, the trader might consider entering a position that capitalizes on the anticipated price breakout or reversal.
Conclusion
This volatility indicator is a robust tool for identifying market conditions that are conducive to significant price movements. By tracking the behavior of key volatility indices, traders can gain insights into the market’s expectations of future price fluctuations, enabling them to make more informed decisions regarding market entries and exits. Understanding and monitoring volatility can be particularly valuable during times of heightened uncertainty, as changes in volatility often precede substantial shifts in market direction (French et al., 1987).

The core functionality of the Gaussian Filter line is to show trend direction. When the trend line increases four times consecutively, it indicates an uptrend signal. Similarly, if it decreases four times in a row, it signals a downtrend. The smoothness of the filter helps traders stay on the right side of the market by filtering out noise and emphasizing the dominant trend direction.
◉ Entry and Exit Levels with Real-Time Price and Performance Data:
Each time the indicator detects a trend change, it plots an entry or exit level on the chart. For an uptrend, an entry level is marked, and for a downtrend, an exit level is plotted. These levels display the price at the time of the signal.
While the trend is ongoing, the indicator tracks the percentage change in price from the initial entry or exit signal to the current bar, updating in real-time. When a trend concludes, it displays the total percentage change from the entry or exit point to the trend's end. This feature provides valuable insights into how much the price has moved during each trend phase and allows traders to monitor the performance of each trade.
◉ Color-Coded Candlestick Representation with Trend Shift Alerts:
In addition to coloring the candlesticks based on the trend direction, the indicator also uses gray candles to highlight potential early trend shifts. For example, if the Gaussian Filter detects a downtrend but the price moves above the filter line, the candles turn gray, signaling a possible reversal or shift in momentum. Similarly, in an uptrend, if the price moves below the Gaussian Filter line, the candles turn gray as an early indication of potential bearish momentum. This visual cue helps traders stay alert to possible faster shifts in market direction, allowing for quicker decision-making.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
Length and Sigma for Gaussian Filter:
Adjust the length and sigma parameters to control how the Gaussian Filter smooths the price data. A longer length provides smoother trend lines, while adjusting sigma can fine-tune the level of smoothing applied.
Levels Display and Candle Coloring:
You can toggle the visibility of entry and exit levels as well as enable or disable the dynamic coloring of candlesticks based on the trend direction. The additional gray color setting provides an extra layer of information, allowing you to spot potential trend reversals early.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Gaussian Filter indicator is a powerful tool for identifying and following market trends. By providing clear entry and exit signals, along with real-time tracking of price changes, it gives traders a structured way to manage trades and monitor performance. The color-coded candles, including gray to highlight possible trend shifts, add another dimension to visualizing market dynamics. The added flexibility of customizing colors and trend levels makes it a versatile indicator suitable for both trend-following and reversal strategies.
Triple Moving Average CrossoverBelow is the Pine Script code for TradingView that creates an indicator with three user-defined moving averages (with default periods of 10, 50, and 100) and labels for buy and sell signals at key crossovers. Additionally, it creates a label if the price increases by 100 points from the buy entry or decreases by 100 points from the sell entry, with the label saying "+100".
Explanation:
Indicator Definition: indicator("Triple Moving Average Crossover", overlay=true) defines the script as an indicator that overlays on the chart.
User Inputs: input.int functions allow users to define the periods for the short, middle, and long moving averages with defaults of 10, 50, and 100, respectively.
Moving Averages Calculation: The ta.sma function calculates the simple moving averages for the specified periods.
Plotting Moving Averages: plot functions plot the short, middle, and long moving averages on the chart with blue, orange, and red colors.
Crossover Detection: ta.crossover and ta.crossunder functions detect when the short moving average crosses above or below the middle moving average and when the middle moving average crosses above or below the long moving average.
Entry Price Tracking: Variables buyEntryPrice and sellEntryPrice store the buy and sell entry prices. These prices are updated whenever a bullish or bearish crossover occurs.
100 Points Move Detection: buyTargetReached checks if the current price has increased by 100 points from the buy entry price. sellTargetReached checks if the current price has decreased by 100 points from the sell entry price.
Plotting Labels: plotshape functions plot the buy and sell labels at the crossovers and the +100 labels when the target moves are reached. The labels are displayed in white and green colors.

Within Standard Deviation Bounds ProbabilityThis indicator calculates the probability of the closing price remaining within the upper and lower bounds defined by the mean and standard deviation of historical percent changes. It also plots the probability line and a horizontal line at 68%, which would be the expected probability for a normal distribution. It is designed to be used with my other indicator "Mean and Standard Deviation Lines.
Inputs:
period (Days): This defines the number of bars used to calculate the mean and standard deviation.
Calculations:
Percent change: Calculates the daily percentage change between closing prices.
Mean and standard deviation: Calculates the mean and standard deviation of the percent changes over the specified period.
Bounds: Calculates the upper and lower bounds by adding/subtracting the standard deviation from the mean, multiplied by the closing price.
Crossover tracking: Iterates through bars and counts crosses above and below the bounds.
Probability calculation: Calculates the total crossover probability as a percentage of the period.
Plotting: Plots the probability line and the horizontal line at 68%.
Limitations:
Assumes a normal distribution of price changes, which may not be accurate in real markets.
Overall:
This indicator provides a way to visualize the probability of the price staying within calculated bounds based on historical volatility. However, it's important to be aware of its limitations and interpret the results within the context of your trading strategy and risk management.

Standardized Median Proximity [AlgoAlpha]Introducing the Standardized Median Proximity by AlgoAlpha 🚀📊 – a dynamic tool designed to enhance your trading strategy by analyzing price fluctuations relative to the median value. This indicator is built to provide clear visual cues on the price deviation from its median, allowing for a nuanced understanding of market trends and potential reversals.
🔍 Key Features:
1. 📈 Median Tracking: At the core of this indicator is the calculation of the median price over a specified lookback period. By evaluating the current price against this median, the indicator provides a sense of whether the price is trending above or below its recent median value.
medianValue = ta.median(priceSource, lookbackLength)
2. 🌡️ Normalization of Price Deviation: The deviation of the price from the median is normalized using standard deviation, ensuring that the indicator's readings are consistent and comparable across different time frames and instruments.
standardDeviation = ta.stdev(priceDeviation, 45)
normalizedValue = priceDeviation / (standardDeviation + standardDeviation)
3. 📌 Boundary Calculations: The indicator sets upper and lower boundaries based on the normalized values, helping to identify overbought and oversold conditions.
upperBoundary = ta.ema(positiveValues, lookbackLength) + ta.stdev(positiveValues, lookbackLength) * stdDevMultiplier
lowerBoundary = ta.ema(negativeValues, lookbackLength) - ta.stdev(negativeValues, lookbackLength) * stdDevMultiplier
4. 🎨 Visual Appeal and Clarity: With carefully chosen colors, the plots provide an intuitive and clear representation of market states. Rising trends are indicated in a shade of green, while falling trends are shown in red.
5. 🚨 Alert Conditions: Stay ahead of market movements with customizable alerts for trend shifts and impulse signals, enabling timely decisions.
alertcondition(ta.crossover(normalizedValue, 0), "Bullish Trend Shift", "Median Proximity Crossover Zero Line")
🔧 How to Use:
- 🎯 Set your preferred lookback lengths and standard deviation multipliers to tailor the indicator to your trading style.
- 💹 Utilize the boundary plots to understand potential overbought or oversold conditions.
- 📈 Analyze the color-coded column plots for quick insights into the market's direction relative to the median.
- ⏰ Set alerts to notify you of significant trend changes or conditions that match your trading criteria.
Basic Logic Explained:
- The indicator first calculates the median of the selected price source over your chosen lookback period. This median serves as a baseline for measuring price deviation.
- It then standardizes this deviation by dividing it by the standard deviation of the price deviation over a 45-period lookback, creating a normalized value.
- Upper and lower boundaries are computed using the exponential moving average (EMA) and standard deviation of these normalized values, adjusted by your selected multiplier.
- Finally, color-coded plots provide a visual representation of these calculations, offering at-a-glance insights into market conditions.
Remember, while this tool offers valuable insights, it's crucial to use it as part of a comprehensive trading strategy, complemented by other analysis and indicators. Happy trading!

Tops & Bottoms by Volume [SS]Hey everyone,
Releasing this indicator that helps you time entries by alerting to potential tops and bottoms in the market.
Background to the indicator:
I was playing around with things that signalled reversals / tops and bottoms in SPSS and R using Pivot Points to mark tops and bottoms. Happened to come across a generally statistically significant relationship between sell to buy volume that was tracked over 10 to 50 candles back and pivot highs and pivot lows.
So I put it into a beta version of an indicator to see how it looked and was a bit surprised.
Since then, I have went back and narrowed down the details of what works/what doesn't work and this is the tentative result!
What it does / How to Use:
It tracks the cumulative buy vs sell volume. Buy volume is cumulated as close > open (or green candles) and sell is open > close (or red candles).
It then cumulates this over a user-defined period (defaulted to 14). It then looks back to see the highest vs lowest areas of sell and buy volume and makes determinations based on this relationship.
The relationship was determined by me using my own analysis and programmed into the indicators algorithm (using highest vs lowest function in pine).
It will plot areas of potential reversal to the upside as green on the histogram or red for a downside reversal. Once this becomes significant enough to signal an actual bottom or top, it will then change the SMA colour from white to green (for bottom) or red (for top).
Your entries generally should be once the SMA turns back to white. So from green to white, you would enter long or inverse for red to white (enter short).
Settings and Customizability:
Here are the key points to keep in mind if you are using this indicator:
Your lookback length should be between 10 to 50. I have left it open for you to modify it below and above this lookback period; however, this is the major periods deemed to be significant in identifying tops and bottoms. Thus, I advise against operating outside of those parameters.
You can toggle between smoothed look or historgram with SMA. The strength in this indicator comes from using the SMA and watching the SMA for signals of reversals, so if you want to filter out the background noise, you can simply look at the plotted SMA. If you want a more responsive indication of impending reversals, leave the smoothed option off and view the histogram in conjunction with the SMA.
The indicator will change the candle colour to red for bearish reversal and green to bullish reversal. This is based on the SMA. You can toggle this off and/or on as desired.
It is recommended to leave ETH (extended trading hours) turned off and RTH turned on.
Please read the instructions carefully.
If you require further assistance, I have posted a tutorial video.
Please be sure you are reading and/or watching carefully.
If you have questions, please feel free to post them below. But bear in mind I likely will not respond if it is already addressed in the description above (this happens often).
Also, feel free to leave your comments or suggestions below as well.
Thanks for checking this out. If you are interested in volume based trading, I suggest also checking out my Buyer to Seller volume indicator which cumulates total buying vs selling volume over a designated lookback period. Both of these used in conjunction are very powerful tools for volume based traders! ( Available here )
NOTE:
The boxes drawn in the chart are my own for demonstration purposes. I unfortunately cannot get the indicator to overlay the boxes on the chart in a separate viewing pane. That is why I opted to use the barcolor function to change the candle color instead :-).
Thanks again everyone and safe trades!
Multi-Day VWAP V2Updated from V1.
Chart the multi-day Volume Weighted Average Price ( VWAP ). Normally, the VWAP is tracked for the current day, from the first bar of the day (regular or extended session). The VWAP shows the current value of:
-> sum(hlc3 * volume , barsForDay) / sum( volume , barsForDay),
-> where 'barsForDay' is the total number bars that have elapsed during the day for the chart interval.
The multi-day version tracks the VWAP for N days back, by averaging the previous N - 1 day bars VWAP and the current VWAP for the current bar (chart interval).
This is very different that simply using a volume weighted moving average , since the closing VWAP values are used for the historical day bars. The results are interesting for intraday trades... especially for values of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 days.
Version 2 includes the closing VWAP for the previous day. There are enough instances where the price chooses to bounce from the previous day's closing VWAP value that it is worth discussing. Usually this value is at or near the daily pivot, but sometimes not. Circled in the chart are some areas of recent SPY bounces on the previous day's closing VWAP.
It seems that when the 5-Day VWAP and normal VWAP have "enough" percentage separation, that there can be good intraday swing opportunities using bounces off VWAP indicators. This is similar to waiting for Hourly/Daily/Weekly/Monthly/etc pivots to have "enough" separation to allow for swing setups. When pivots are "closely" spaced, odds are the price is range bound for the time period (daily range in the case of day pivots, etc).
Previous closing VWAPs can be plotted for all 5 of the original. As with my other scripts, I welcome all comments to spark new ideas that we can all benefit from.
Enjoy.

Liquidity Hunter: Stop Hunts & Volume ClustersStop Hunt Wick Detection
What it catches:
Wicks that are 2x+ larger than the candle body (adjustable)
Minimum wick size to filter out noise
Optional volume confirmation (stops hunts usually have higher volume)
Marks bullish stop hunts (long lower wicks) with 💎 and "BUY LIQ"
Marks bearish stop hunts (long upper wicks) with 💎 and "SELL LIQ"
Extends dashed lines showing where liquidity was grabbed
Volume Cluster Detection
What it tracks:
Bars with volume 1.5x+ above average (adjustable)
Automatically merges nearby clusters within 3 bars
Shows different colors based on volume intensity:
Yellow = 3x+ average volume (extreme)
Orange = 2x+ average volume (strong)
Blue = 1.5x+ average volume (moderate)
Draws horizontal zones showing where volume accumulated
Labels show the volume multiplier (e.g., "VOL: 2.3x")
Adjustable Settings
You can tune:
Wick-to-body ratio threshold
Minimum wick size percentage
Volume confirmation requirements
Cluster sensitivity and merge distance
The theory: Stop hunts grab liquidity above/below key levels, then price reverses. Volume clusters show where institutions accumulated positions. Both mark areas price is likely to revisit.

Kalman Hull Kijun [BackQuant]Kalman Hull Kijun
A trend baseline that merges three ideas into one clean overlay, Kalman filtering for noise control, Hull-style responsiveness, and a Kijun-like Donchian midline for structure and bias.
Context and lineage
This indicator sits in the same family as two related scripts:
Kalman Price Filter
This is the foundational building block. It introduces the Kalman filter concept, a state-estimation algorithm designed to infer an underlying “true” signal from noisy measurements, originally used in aerospace guidance and later adopted across robotics, economics, and markets.
Kalman Hull Supertrend
This is the original script made, which people loved. So it inspired me to create this one.
Kalman Hull Kijun uses the same core philosophy as the Supertrend variant, but instead of building a Supertrend band system, it produces a single structural baseline that behaves like a Kijun-style reference line.
What this indicator is trying to solve
Most trend baselines sit on a bad trade-off curve:
If you smooth hard, the line reacts late and misses turns.
If you react fast, the line whipsaws and tracks noise.
Kalman Hull Kijun is designed to land closer to the middle:
Cleaner than typical fast moving averages in chop.
More responsive than slow averages in directional phases.
More “structure aware” than pure averages because the baseline is range-derived (Kijun-like) after filtering.
Core idea in plain language
The plotted line is a Kijun-like baseline, but it is not built from raw candles directly.
High level flow:
Start with a chosen price stream (source input).
Reduce measurement noise using Kalman-style state estimation.
Add Hull-style responsiveness so the filtered stream stays usable for trend work.
Build a Kijun-like baseline by taking a Donchian midpoint of that filtered stream over the base period.
So the output is a single baseline that is intended to be:
Less jittery than a simple fast MA.
Less laggy than a slow MA.
More “range anchored” than standard smoothing lines.
How to read it
1) Trend and bias (the primary use)
Price above the baseline, bullish bias.
Price below the baseline, bearish bias.
Clean flips across the baseline are regime changes, especially when followed by a hold or retest.
2) Retests and dynamic structure
Treat the baseline like dynamic S/R rather than a signal generator:
In uptrends, pullbacks that respect the baseline can act as continuation context.
In downtrends, reclaim failures around the baseline can act as continuation context.
Repeated back-and-forth around the line usually means compression or chop, not clean trend.
3) Extension vs compression (using the fill)
The fill is meant to communicate “distance” and “pressure” visually:
Large separation between price and baseline suggests expansion.
Price compressing into the baseline suggests rebalancing and decision points.
Inputs and what they change
Kijun Base Period
Controls the structural memory of the baseline.
Higher values track broader swings and reduce flips.
Lower values track tighter swings and react faster.
Kalman Price Source
Defines what data the filter is estimating.
Close is usually the cleanest default.
HL2 often “feels” smoother as an average price.
High/Low sources can become more reactive and less stable depending on the market.
Measurement Noise
Think of this as the main smoothness knob:
Higher values generally produce a calmer filtered stream.
Lower values generally produce a faster, more reactive stream.
Process Noise
Think of this as adaptability:
Higher values adapt faster to changing conditions but can get twitchy.
Lower values adapt slower but stay stable.
Plotting and UI (what you see on chart)
1) Adaptive line coloring
Baseline turns bullish color when price is above it.
Baseline turns bearish color when price is below it.
This makes the state readable without extra panels.
2) Gradient “energy” fill
Bull fill appears between price and baseline when above.
Bear fill appears between price and baseline when below.
The goal is clarity on separation and control, not decoration.
3) Rim effect
A subtle band around price that only appears on the active side.
Helps highlight directional control without hiding candles.
4) Candle painting (optional)
Candles can be colored to match the current bias.
Useful for scanning many charts quickly.
Disable if you prefer raw candles.
Alerts
Long state alert when price is above the baseline.
Short state alert when price is below the baseline.
Best used as a bias or regime notification, not a standalone entry trigger.
Where it fits in a workflow
This is a context layer, it pairs well with:
Market structure tools, BOS/MSB, OBs, FVGs.
Momentum triggers that need a regime filter.
Mean reversion tools that need “do not fade trends” context.
Limitations
No baseline eliminates chop whipsaws, tuning only manages the trade-off.
Settings should not be copy pasted across assets without checking behavior.
This does not forecast, it estimates and smooths state, then expresses it as a structural baseline.
Disclaimer
Educational and informational only, not financial advice.
Not a complete trading system.
If you use it in any trading workflow, do proper backtesting, forward testing, and risk management before any live execution.
Butterworth LPF Flip + AutoTune (PF)Butterworth LPF Flip + AutoTune (PF)
This strategy trades price trend flips using two Butterworth low-pass filters (a FAST filter and a SLOW filter). A trade is taken when the FAST filter crosses the SLOW filter. Optionally, the script can auto-tune the filter lengths by simulating many Fast/Slow combinations and selecting the pair with the best Profit Factor (PF).
What the Script Does
- Computes two 2‑pole Butterworth low‑pass filters on price.
- Enters LONG when FAST crosses above SLOW.
- Enters SHORT when FAST crosses below SLOW.
- Optionally simulates many Fast/Slow length combinations internally.
- Chooses the Fast/Slow pair with the highest Profit Factor.
- Trades only the selected best pair.
Manual Mode (Default)
1. Leave Auto‑Tune OFF.
2. Set:
- FAST cutoff period (bars)
- SLOW cutoff period (bars)
3. The strategy will trade using only these values.
Use this mode for normal trading or live deployment.
Auto‑Tune Mode
1. Enable Auto‑Tune.
2. Define Fast and Slow ranges:
- FAST min / max / step
- SLOW min / max / step
3. The script simulates ALL Fast × Slow combinations bar‑by‑bar.
4. Each combination tracks:
- Gross Profit
- Gross Loss
- Closed trades
- Profit Factor (PF = GP / GL)
5. At the end of the chart, the best PF pair is selected and used for trading.
Interpreting the End Box
The status label at the end of the chart reports:
- Whether Auto‑Tune is enabled
- Number of candidate pairs tested
- Best FAST period
- Best SLOW period
- Profit Factor of the best pair
- Win Rate (wins ÷ closed trades)
If PF is near 1.0 or trades are very low, expand the range or length of the test.
Best Practices
- Use Auto‑Tune ONLY for research and optimization.
- After finding good parameters, disable Auto‑Tune and trade manually.
- Keep Fast < Slow (logical separation).
- Longer charts produce more reliable PF results.
- Avoid very small step sizes (performance + noise).
Known Limitations
- Pine Script runs bar‑by‑bar; tuning is approximate, not vectorized.
- Large grids increase execution time.
- Results are historical and NOT predictive.
- Not suitable for live auto‑optimization.
Summary
This script is best viewed as a *research tool first, strategy second*. Use it to discover stable Fast/Slow regimes, then lock them in for simple, repeatable trading.
