QuantFrame | FractalystWhat’s the purpose of this indicator?
The purpose of QuantFrame is to provide traders with a systematic approach to analyzing market structure, eliminating subjectivity, and enhancing decision-making. By clearly identifying and labeling structural breaks, QuantFrame helps traders:
1. Refine Market Analysis: Transition from discretionary market observation to a structured framework.
2. Identify Key Levels: Highlight important liquidity and invalidation zones for potential entries, exits, and risk management.
3. Streamline Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Track market trends and structural changes across different timeframes seamlessly.
4. Enhance Consistency: Reduce guesswork by following a rule-based methodology for identifying structural breaks.
How Does This Indicator Identify Market Structure?
1. Swing Detection
• The indicator identifies key swing points on the chart. These are local highs or lows where the price reverses direction, forming the foundation of market structure.
2. Structural Break Validation
• A structural break is flagged when a candle closes above a previous swing high (bullish) or below a previous swing low (bearish).
• Break Confirmation Process:
To confirm the break, the indicator applies the following rules:
• Valid Swing Preceding the Break: There must be at least one valid swing point before the break.
3. Numeric Labeling
• Each confirmed structural break is assigned a unique numeric ID starting from 1.
• This helps traders track breaks sequentially and analyze how the market structure evolves over time.
4. Liquidity and Invalidation Zones
• For every confirmed structural break, the indicator highlights two critical zones:
1. Liquidity Zone (LIQ): Represents the structural liquidity level.
2. Invalidation Zone (INV): Acts as Invalidation point if the structure fails to hold.
What do the extremities show us on the charts?
When using QuantFrame for market structure analysis, the extremities—Liquidity Level (LIQ) and Invalidation Level (INV)—serve as critical reference points for understanding price behavior and making informed trading decisions.
Here's a detailed explanation of what these extremities represent and how they function:
Liquidity Level (LIQ)
Definition: The Liquidity Level is a key price zone where the market is likely to retest, consolidate, or seek liquidity. It represents areas where orders are concentrated, making it a high-probability reaction zone.
Purpose: Traders use this level to anticipate potential pullbacks or continuation patterns. It helps in identifying areas where price may pause or reverse temporarily due to the presence of significant liquidity.
Key Insight: If a candle closes above or below the LIQ, it results in another break of structure (BOS) in the same direction. This indicates that price is continuing its trend and has successfully absorbed liquidity at that level.
Invalidation Level (INV)
Definition: The Invalidation Level marks the threshold that, if breached, signifies a structural shift in the market. It acts as a critical point where the current market bias becomes invalid.
Purpose: This level is often used as a stop-loss or re-evaluation point for trading strategies. It ensures that traders have a clear boundary for risk management.
Key Insight: If a candle closes above or below the INV, it signals a shift in market structure:
A closure above the INV in a bearish trend indicates a shift from bearish to bullish bias.
A closure below the INV in a bullish trend indicates a shift from bullish to bearish bias.
What does the top table display?
The top table in QuantFrame serves as a multi-timeframe trend overview. Here’s what it provides:
1. Numeric Break IDs Across Multiple Timeframes:
• Each numeric break corresponds to a confirmed structural break on a specific timeframe, helping traders track the most recent breaks systematically.
2. Trend Direction via Text Color:
• The color of the text reflects the current trend direction:
• Blue indicates a bullish structure.
• Red signifies a bearish structure.
3. Higher Timeframe Insights Without Manual Switching:
• The table eliminates the need to switch between timeframes by presenting a consolidated view of the market trend across multiple timeframes, saving time and improving decision-making.
What is the Multi-Timeframe Trend Score (MTTS)?
MTTS is a score that quantifies trend strength and direction across multiple timeframes.
How does MTTS work?
1. Break Detection:
• Analyzes bullish and bearish structural breaks on each timeframe.
2. Trend Scoring:
• Scores each timeframe based on the frequency and quality of bullish/bearish breaks.
3. MTTS Calculation:
• Averages the scores across all timeframes to produce a unified trend strength value.
How is MTTS interpreted?
• ⬆ (Above 50): Indicates an overall bullish trend.
• ⬇ (Below 50): Suggests an overall bearish trend.
• ⇅ (Exactly 50): Represents a neutral or balanced market structure.
How to Use QuantFrame?
1. Implement a Systematic Market Structure Framework:
• Use QuantFrame to analyze market structure objectively by identifying key structural breaks and marking liquidity (LIQ) and invalidation (INV) zones.
• This eliminates guesswork and provides a clear framework for understanding market movements.
2. Leverage MTTS for Directional Bias:
• Refer to the MTTS table to identify the multi-timeframe directional bias, giving you the broader market context.
• Align your trading decisions with the overall trend or structure to improve accuracy and consistency.
3. Apply Your Preferred Entry Model:
• Once the market context is clear, use your preferred entry model to capitalize on the identified structure and trend.
• Manage trades dynamically as price delivers, using the provided liquidity and invalidation zones for risk management.
What Makes QuantFrame Original?
1. Objective Market Structure Analysis:
• Unlike subjective methods, QuantFrame uses a rule-based approach to identify structural breaks, ensuring consistency and reducing emotional decision-making.
2. Multi-Timeframe Integration:
• The MTTS table consolidates trend data across multiple timeframes, offering a bird’s-eye view of market trends without the need to switch charts manually.
• This unique feature allows traders to align strategies with higher-timeframe trends for more informed decision-making.
3. Liquidity and Invalidation Zones:
• Automatically marks Liquidity (LIQ) and Invalidation (INV) zones for every structural break, providing actionable levels for entries, exits, and risk management.
• These zones help traders define their risk-reward setups with precision.
4. Dynamic Trend Scoring (MTTS):
• The Multi-Timeframe Trend Score (MTTS) quantifies trend strength and direction across selected timeframes, offering a single, consolidated metric for market sentiment.
• This score is visualized with intuitive symbols (⬆, ⬇, ⇅) for quick decision-making.
5. Numeric Labeling of Breaks:
• Each structural break is assigned a unique numeric ID, making it easy to track, analyze, and backtest specific market scenarios.
6. Systematic Yet Flexible:
• While it provides a structured framework for market analysis, QuantFrame seamlessly integrates with any trading style. Traders can use it alongside their preferred entry models, adapting it to their unique strategies.
7. Enhanced Market Context:
• By combining structural insights with directional bias (via MTTS), the indicator equips traders with a complete market context, enabling them to make better-informed decisions.

Trend Reversal Probability [Algoalpha]Introducing Trend Reversal Probability by AlgoAlpha – a powerful indicator that estimates the likelihood of trend reversals based on an advanced custom oscillator and duration-based statistics. Designed for traders who want to stay ahead of potential market shifts, this indicator provides actionable insights into trend momentum and reversal probabilities.
Key Features :
🔧 Custom Oscillator Calculation: Combines a dual SMA strategy with a proprietary RSI-like calculation to detect market direction and strength.
📊 Probability Levels & Visualization: Plots average signal durations and their statistical deviations (±1, ±2, ±3 SD) on the chart for clear visual guidance.
🎨 Dynamic Color Customization: Choose your preferred colors for upward and downward trends, ensuring a personalized chart view.
📈 Signal Duration Metrics: Tracks and displays signal durations with columns representing key percentages (80%, 60%, 40%, and 20%).
🔔 Alerts for High Probability Events: Set alerts for significant reversal probabilities (above 84% and 98% or below 14%) to capture key trading moments.
How to Use :
Add the Indicator: Add Trend Reversal Probability to your favorites by clicking the star icon.
Market Analysis: Use the plotted probability levels (average duration and ±SD bands) to identify overextended trends and potential reversals. Use the color of the duration counter to identify the current trend.
Leverage Alerts: Enable alerts to stay informed of high or extreme reversal probabilities without constant chart monitoring.
How It Works :
The indicator begins by calculating a custom oscillator using short and long simple moving averages (SMA) of the midpoint price. A proprietary RSI-like formula then transforms these values to estimate trend direction and momentum. The duration between trend reversals is tracked and averaged, with standard deviations plotted to provide probabilistic guidance on trend longevity. Additionally, the indicator incorporates a cumulative probability function to estimate the likelihood of a trend reversal, displaying the result in a data table for easy reference. When probability levels cross key thresholds, alerts are triggered, helping traders take timely action.
Best Range (Day Trading)The indicator is based on a formula very similar to that of the ATR. The average volatility of the last candles (a value adjustable via inputs) is calculated, and this value is then divided (a value adjustable via inputs), providing a specific value in terms of RANGE .
Its use is very straightforward. It was primarily designed for stock indices (Nasdaq & SPX). When used on the DAILY timeframe, it provides the recommended RANGE value for day trading with structural logic.
Its goal is to offer a guiding value for setting the chart to a range-based view that is optimal and as effective as possible in identifying breakouts of specific levels , helping traders avoid false breakouts or misleading structures.
We can also observe a division of levels into quartiles (25, 50, 75, 100, 125...). This helps provide reference ranges, allowing the range to be used with rounded numbers .
For example, on Nasdaq , if the indicator set on DAILY provides a value between 200 and 250, then it is advisable to visualize the chart at 200 RANGE for a more aggressive approach or at 250 RANGE for a more conservative approach.
On SPX , which is less volatile, we use increments of 25. If the indicator gives a value between 25 and 50 , then we use 25 for an aggressive approach and 50 for a conservative approach.
Obviously, this refers to FUTURES and the tick movements of MINI contracts.

Poisson Projection of Price Levels### **Poisson Projection of Price Levels**
**Overview:**
The *Poisson Projection of Price Levels* is a cutting-edge technical indicator designed to identify and visualize potential support and resistance levels based on historical price interactions. By leveraging the Poisson distribution, this tool dynamically adjusts the significance of each price level's past "touches" to project future interactions with varying degrees of probability. This probabilistic approach offers traders a nuanced view of where price levels may hold or react in upcoming bars, enhancing both analysis and trading strategies.
---
**🔍 **Math & Methodology**
1. **Strata Levels:**
- **Definition:** Strata are horizontal lines spaced evenly around the current closing price.
- **Calculation:**
\
where \(i\) ranges from 0 to \(\text{Strata Count} - 1\).
2. **Forecast Iterations:**
- **Structure:** The indicator projects five forecast iterations into the future, each spaced by a Fibonacci sequence of bars: 2, 3, 5, 8, and 13 bars ahead. This spacing is inspired by the Fibonacci sequence, which is prevalent in financial market analysis for identifying key levels.
- **Purpose:** Each iteration represents a distinct forecast point where the price may interact with the strata, allowing for a multi-step projection of potential price levels.
3. **Touch Counting:**
- **Definition:** A "touch" occurs when the closing price of a bar is within half the increment of a stratum level.
- **Process:** For each stratum and each forecast iteration, the indicator counts the number of touches within a specified lookback window (e.g., 80 bars), offset by the forecasted position. This ensures that each iteration's touch count is independent and contextually relevant to its forecast horizon.
- **Adjustment:** Each forecast iteration analyzes a unique segment of the lookback window, offset by its forecasted position to ensure independent probability calculations.
4. **Poisson Probability Calculation:**
- **Formula:**
\
\
- **Interpretation:** \(p(k=1)\) represents the probability of exactly one touch occurring within the lookback window for each stratum and iteration.
- **Application:** This probability is used to determine the transparency of each stratum line, where higher probabilities result in more opaque (less transparent) lines, indicating stronger historical significance.
5. **Transparency Mapping:**
- **Calculation:**
\
- **Purpose:** Maps the Poisson probability to a visual transparency level, enhancing the readability of significant strata levels.
- **Outcome:** Strata with higher probabilities (more historical touches) appear more opaque, while those with lower probabilities appear fainter.
---
**📊 **Comparability to Standard Techniques**
1. **Support and Resistance Levels:**
- **Traditional Approach:** Traders identify support and resistance based on historical price reversals, pivot points, or psychological price levels.
- **Poisson Projection:** Automates and quantifies this process by statistically analyzing the frequency of price interactions with specific levels, providing a probabilistic measure of significance.
2. **Statistical Modeling:**
- **Standard Models:** Techniques like Moving Averages, Bollinger Bands, or Fibonacci Retracements offer dynamic and rule-based levels but lack direct probabilistic interpretation.
- **Poisson Projection:** Introduces a discrete event probability framework, offering a unique blend of statistical rigor and visual clarity that complements traditional indicators.
3. **Event-Based Analysis:**
- **Financial Industry Practices:** Event studies and high-frequency trading models often use Poisson processes to model order arrivals or price jumps.
- **Indicator Application:** While not identical, the use of Poisson probabilities in this indicator draws inspiration from event-based modeling, applying it to the context of price level interactions.
---
**💡 **Strengths & Advantages**
1. **Innovative Visualization:**
- Combines statistical probability with traditional support/resistance visualization, offering a fresh perspective on price level significance.
2. **Dynamic Adaptability:**
- Parameters like strata increment, lookback window, and probability threshold are user-defined, allowing customization across different markets and timeframes.
3. **Independent Probability Calculations:**
- Each forecast iteration calculates its own Poisson probability, ensuring that projections are contextually relevant and independent of other iterations.
4. **Clear Visual Cues:**
- Transparency-based coloring intuitively highlights significant price levels, making it easier for traders to identify key areas of interest at a glance.
---
**⚠️ **Limitations & Considerations**
1. **Poisson Assumptions:**
- Assumes that touches occur independently and at a constant average rate (\(\lambda\)), which may not always align with market realities characterized by trends and volatility clustering.
2. **Computational Intensity:**
- Managing multiple iterations and strata can be resource-intensive, potentially affecting performance on lower-powered devices or with very high lookback windows.
3. **Interpretation Complexity:**
- While transparency offers visual clarity, understanding the underlying probability calculations requires a basic grasp of Poisson statistics, which may be a barrier for some traders.
---
**📢 **How to Use It**
1. **Add to TradingView:**
- Open TradingView and navigate to the Pine Script Editor.
- Paste the script above and click **Add to Chart**.
2. **Configure Inputs:**
- **Strata Increment:** Set the desired price step between strata (e.g., `0.1` for 10 cents).
- **Lookback Window:** Define how many past bars to consider for calculating Poisson probabilities (e.g., `80`).
- **Probability Transparency Threshold (%):** Set the threshold percentage to map probabilities to line transparency (e.g., `25%`).
3. **Understand the Forecast Iterations:**
- The indicator projects five forecast points into the future at bar spacings of 2, 3, 5, 8, and 13 bars ahead.
- Each iteration independently calculates its Poisson probability based on the touch counts within its specific lookback window offset by its forecasted position.
4. **Interpret the Visualization:**
- **Opaque Lines:** Indicate higher Poisson probabilities, suggesting historically significant price levels that are more likely to interact again.
- **Fainter Lines:** Represent lower probabilities, indicating less historically significant levels that may be less likely to interact.
- **Forecast Spacing:** The spacing of 2, 3, 5, 8, and 13 bars ahead aligns with Fibonacci principles, offering a natural progression in forecast horizons.
5. **Apply to Trading Strategies:**
- **Support/Resistance Identification:** Use the opaque lines as potential support and resistance levels for placing trades.
- **Entry and Exit Points:** Anticipate price interactions at forecasted levels to plan strategic entries and exits.
- **Risk Management:** Utilize the transparency mapping to determine where to place stop-loss and take-profit orders based on the probability of price interactions.
6. **Customize as Needed:**
- Adjust the **Strata Increment** to fit different price ranges or volatility levels.
- Modify the **Lookback Window** to capture more or fewer historical touches, adapting to different timeframes or market conditions.
- Tweak the **Probability Transparency Threshold** to control the sensitivity of transparency mapping to Poisson probabilities.
**📈 **Practical Applications**
1. **Identifying Key Levels:**
- Quickly visualize which price levels have historically had significant interactions, aiding in the identification of potential support and resistance zones.
2. **Forecasting Price Reactions:**
- Use the forecast iterations to anticipate where price may interact in the near future, assisting in planning entry and exit points.
3. **Risk Management:**
- Determine areas of high probability for price reversals or consolidations, enabling better placement of stop-loss and take-profit orders.
4. **Market Analysis:**
- Assess the strength of market levels over different forecast horizons, providing a multi-layered understanding of market structure.
---
**🔗 **Conclusion**
The *Poisson Projection of Price Levels* bridges the gap between statistical modeling and traditional technical analysis, offering traders a sophisticated tool to quantify and visualize the significance of price levels. By integrating Poisson probabilities with dynamic transparency mapping, this indicator provides a unique and insightful perspective on potential support and resistance zones, enhancing both analysis and trading strategies.

OHLC MeansNote: This indicator works only on daily timeframes.
The indicator calculates the OHLC averages for days corresponding to the day of the last displayed candlestick. For instance, if the last candlestick displayed is Monday, it calculates the OHLC average for all Mondays; if Tuesday, it does the same for all Tuesdays.
Customizable period: The indicator allows you to select the number of candlesticks to analyze, with a default value of 1000. This means it will consider the last 1000 candlesticks before the final displayed one. Assuming there are only five trading days per week, this corresponds to about 200 days. (not true for cryptos, you need to devide by 7)
Example scenario:
Today is Tuesday and we analyse NQ
By default, the indicator analyzes the last 1000 candlesticks (modifiable parameter).
Since there are five trading days in a week,
1000 ÷ 5 = 200
The indicator calculates the OHLC averages for the last 200 Tuesdays, corresponding to the past seven years. Of course it is not exactly 200 becauses the may be one tuesday where the market is closed (if christmas is on tuesday for instance)
Output:
Displays four daily averages as four lines with their levels as labels :
High and Low averages are displayed at the extremes.
Open and Close averages are displayed at the center.
Color coding:
Red indicates bearish movement.
Green indicates bullish movement.
Usage recommendations:

Rolling Window Geometric Brownian Motion Projections📊 Rolling GBM Projections + EV & Adjustable Confidence Bands
Overview
The Rolling GBM Projections + EV & Adjustable Confidence Bands indicator provides traders with a robust, dynamic tool to model and project future price movements using Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM). By combining GBM-based simulations, expected value (EV) calculations, and customizable confidence bands, this indicator offers valuable insights for decision-making and risk management.
Key Features
Rolling GBM Projections: Simulate potential future price paths based on drift (μμ) and volatility (σσ).
Expected Value (EV) Line: Represents the average projection of simulated price paths.
Confidence Bands: Define ranges where the price is expected to remain, adjustable from 51% to 99%.
Simulation Lines: Visualize individual GBM paths for detailed analysis.
EV of EV Line: A smoothed trend of the EV, offering additional clarity on price dynamics.
Customizable Lookback Periods: Adjust the rolling lookback periods for drift and volatility calculations.
Mathematical Foundation
1. Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM)
GBM is a mathematical model used to simulate the random movement of asset prices, described by the following stochastic differential equation:
dSt=μStdt+σStdWt
dSt=μStdt+σStdWt
Where:
StSt: Price at time tt
μμ: Drift term (expected return)
σσ: Volatility (standard deviation of returns)
dWtdWt: Wiener process (standard Brownian motion)
2. Drift (μμ) and Volatility (σσ)
Drift (μμ): Represents the average logarithmic return of the asset. Calculated using a simple moving average (SMA) over a rolling lookback period.
μ=SMA(ln(St/St−1),Lookback Drift)
μ=SMA(ln(St/St−1),Lookback Drift)
Volatility (σσ): Measures the standard deviation of logarithmic returns over a rolling lookback period.
σ=STD(ln(St/St−1),Lookback Volatility)
σ=STD(ln(St/St−1),Lookback Volatility)
3. Price Simulation Using GBM
The GBM formula for simulating future prices is:
St+Δt=St×e(μ−12σ2)Δt+σϵΔt
St+Δt=St×e(μ−21σ2)Δt+σϵΔt
Where:
ϵϵ: Random variable from a standard normal distribution (N(0,1)N(0,1)).
4. Confidence Bands
Confidence bands are determined using the Z-score corresponding to a user-defined confidence percentage (CC):
Upper Band=EV+Z⋅σ
Upper Band=EV+Z⋅σ
Lower Band=EV−Z⋅σ
Lower Band=EV−Z⋅σ
The Z-score is computed using an inverse normal distribution function, approximating the relationship between confidence and standard deviations.
Methodology
Rolling Drift and Volatility:
Drift and volatility are calculated using logarithmic returns over user-defined rolling lookback periods (default: μ=20μ=20, σ=16σ=16).
Drift defines the overall directional tendency, while volatility determines the randomness and variability of price movements.
Simulations:
Multiple GBM paths (default: 30) are generated for a specified number of projection candles (default: 12).
Each path is influenced by the current drift and volatility, incorporating random shocks to simulate real-world price dynamics.
Expected Value (EV):
The EV is calculated as the average of all simulated paths for each projection step, offering a statistical mean of potential price outcomes.
Confidence Bands:
The upper and lower bounds of the confidence bands are derived using the Z-score corresponding to the selected confidence percentage (e.g., 68%, 95%).
EV of EV:
A running average of the EV values, providing a smoothed perspective of price trends over the projection horizon.
