**Strategy**
**A+ Trade (Bullish Example):**
- Wait for a H1 candle to above virgin wick(s)
- Virgin wick(s) becomes H1 Bullish POIs
- Drop to M1 and look for price to trade under POI (can be wick or close)
- Then wait for a confirmed iFVG
- (iFVG can be on either side of POI)
- Limit order on confirmation of iFVG
**TP/SL:**
- SL: Just on the other side of the iFVG or the entry candle (which ever is further/safer)
- TP: Obvious DOL OR 2R is DOL is more than 2R away
- If DOL is significantly more than 2R away, I will widen the SL a bit and lessen the TP a bit
- No partial TP, No moving SL, No trailing, No breakeven. Either SL or TP
- Risk = 10% of drawdown ($200 for $50k Lucid accounts)
- Contract size will change depending on how far SL is so I can maintain same $ risk
**A+ Rules**
- Each POI is only valid for an hour
- If still in trade at end of hour, let it play out
- No entries from XX:51
- If price already delivers off POI without giving entry I will not consider it anymore
- There must be an obvious DOL - I will not target empty space
- 1.5R MINIMUM, 2R MAXIMUM
**A+ Process:**
- Wait for iFVG alert
- Check that none of the above rules have been breached
- Check if price engaged with respective POI (bullish/bearish) - this is where indicators help (personal preference) (you still need to understand the model)
- Limit order at iFVG confirmation
- SL on other side of iFVG or entry candle (which ever is further)
- TP at clear DOL (2R max)
- If DOL is a lot more than 2R away - can widen SL a bit
**Reminders**
- Process > Profits.
- A perfectly executed red day > poorly executed green day
- Follow your system.
- Trust your edge - trading is a probabilities game.
- You can lose more than half of your trades and STILL BE PROFITABLE
- There will be losses. That is a part of this business. There is no model in the world that has a 100% win rate.

Weighted Stochastic Oscillator [SeerQuant]Weighted Stochastic Oscillator (WSTO)
The Weighted Stochastic Oscillator (WSTO) is an enhanced stochastic-based trend oscillator that builds on the traditional %K/%D framework by introducing adaptive weighting and configurable smoothing. By dynamically amplifying the oscillator’s deviation from the 50 midline based on a selected market “weight” (Volume, Momentum, Volatility, or Reversion Factor), WSTO provides a cleaner view of trend strength and regime shifts—without relying on classic 80/20 overbought/oversold bands.
⚙️ How It Works
WSTO uses a standard stochastic calculation, measuring where price sits within its rolling high/low range over a lookback period. That %K is then “context-weighted” using your selected weighting method: Volume, Momentum, Volatility, or Reversion Factor.
The weighting is normalized for stability (so it doesn’t blow out during abnormal periods), then applied by amplifying the oscillator’s deviation from the 50 midline. In practice, this means strong conditions make the oscillator lean harder away from 50 (clearer trend), while quieter conditions keep it closer to traditional stochastic behaviour.
The weighted %K is then smoothed using your chosen moving average type, and a second smoothing pass generates the %D signal line. Trend logic is based on a neutral band around 50: bullish when the oscillator holds above (50 + Neutral Zone), bearish when it holds below (50 - Neutral Zone), and neutral while it remains inside that range.
✨ Customizable Settings
WSTO is built to be tuned without overcomplication. You can choose the stochastic source mode (Close, HLC3, OHLC4, or a custom input source), set the stochastic length, and control smoothing via separate %K and %D smoothing lengths.
You can also pick from a wide selection of moving average types (SMA, EMA, RMA, HMA, DEMA, TEMA, etc.) to match your style.
The weighting method is the core differentiator. Volume weighting emphasizes participation, Momentum weighting emphasizes directional impulse, Volatility weighting emphasizes expansion/contraction, and Reversion Factor weighting biases toward mean-reversion dynamics by responding inversely to variance. On the style side, you can select a preset colour scheme (Default/Modern/Cool/Monochrome) or enable custom bull/bear/neutral colours. Candle coloring is optional, and you can decide whether candles follow %K or %D.
🚀 Features and Benefits
WSTO gives you an alternative stochastic that adapts to market conditions instead of treating every regime the same. The weighting engine makes trend strength more obvious when conditions justify it, while the neutral-zone framework reduces noise compared to classic OB/OS bands. With flexible smoothing and clean visual state changes, it works well as a trend filter, a confirmation layer, or a regime signal alongside other systems.

Institutional Frontrunner w/ PCR & VIX - Fixed Distance LabelsUse this script to evaluate if buying or selling is indicated based on a variety of metrics surrounding momentum and volume or institutional traders.
EMA Exhaustion + ContinuationA fast, mechanical scalping system that detects EMA exhaustion, filters with RSI, and manages exits plus continuations.
This indicator is designed for ultra‑short timeframe scalping, where speed and clarity matter more than anything else. It combines three core elements into one mechanical workflow:
- EMA Spread Exhaustion
The system measures the distance between fast and slow EMAs relative to ATR. When the spread reaches extreme levels and then begins to contract, it signals exhaustion — the point where momentum is likely to stall or reverse. This gives traders a structural way to identify setups without relying on subjective “feel.”
- RSI Filter (Accelerated for Scalping)
A shortened RSI (default length 7) is normalized by ATR to match the tempo of 15‑second scalps. This filter ensures that entries only trigger when momentum aligns with the exhaustion signal, reducing false positives and keeping trades in sync with volatility.
- Entry, Exit, and Continuation Logic
- Entries:
- Long entry triggers when spread retreats, EMA‑3 crosses price, and RSI confirms bearish exhaustion (RSI < 0).
- Short entry triggers under the opposite conditions (spread retreat, EMA‑3 cross, RSI > 0).
- Icons: Blue arrow up for longs, Red arrow down for shorts.
- Exits:
- Long exits occur when price closes below the 7 EMA smoothed by SMA‑2 while all EMAs are still sloping upward.
- Icon: Yellow cross above the candle.
- Continuations:
- Long continuation triggers when price dips below EMA‑9 and then reclaims above it.
- Short continuation triggers when price closes above EMA‑9 and then reclaims below it.
- Icons: Green triangle up for long continuation, Purple triangle down for short continuation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Apply the indicator to your chart. I use 15 second chart
- Watch for blue/red arrows — these are your primary entry signals.
- Respect yellow crosses — they mark mechanical exit points.
- Use green/purple triangles to re‑engage continuation trades after shallow pullbacks. I only take the first continuation signal above/below the 20 EMA.
- Keep the RSI filter active to avoid chasing false setups.
- Combine with your risk management rules (position sizing, stop placement) for full system integrity.
Range Indicator Golden Pocket, Liquidity, FairValueGapOverview
This indicator is a comprehensive institutional market structure toolkit. It is designed to identify high-probability reversal zones by merging three powerful technical analysis concepts: Fibonacci Golden Pockets (61.8% - 65%), Liquidity Pool Analysis (Swing Failure Patterns), and Fair Value Gaps (FVG). By automating the detection of price inefficiencies and "stop runs," it helps traders navigate complex price action with objective, rule-based confirmation.
What the Script Does
The script continuously monitors a user-defined lookback period to define a trading range. Within this range, it dynamically plots:
Golden Pockets: High-confluence retracement zones (calculated as 0.35 - 0.382 internal range levels).
Liquidity Zones: Highlighted regions at the absolute high and low (Top/Bottom 5%) where institutional orders and retail stops are typically concentrated.
Swing Failure Patterns (SFP): Real-time detection of liquidity grabs where price breaches a range extreme but fails to close outside, signaling a potential trap.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Visualizes 3-candle price imbalances, showing areas of aggressive buying or selling that often act as future magnets or support/resistance.
2-Candle Confirmation: A momentum-based filter requiring a candle-close confirmation before a reversal signal is generated.
For Whom is it?
Smart Money Concepts (SMC) & ICT Students: Traders looking for automated liquidity sweeps and market inefficiencies.
Fibonacci & Mean Reversion Traders: Those seeking a clean, professional visualization of the Golden Pocket across multiple timeframes.
Systematic Day Traders: Who require strict price-action confirmation (SFP and 2-candle rules) to remove emotional bias from their entries.

Hyperfork Matrix🔱 Hyperfork Matrix 🔱 A manual Andrews Pitchfork tool with action/reaction propagation lines and lattice matrix functionality. This indicator extends Dr. Alan Andrews' and Patrick Mikula's median line methodology by automating the projection of reaction and action lines at equidistant intervals, creating a time-price grid that highlights where pivot levels intersect the matrix.
Three pitchfork variants are supported: Original, Schiff, and Modified Schiff. Each variant adjusts the anchor point position to accommodate different trend angles.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ THE METHOD
Andrews Pitchfork
Dr. Alan Andrews developed the pitchfork as a trend channel tool. The core principle: price tends to return to the median line roughly 80% of the time. When it fails to reach the median, a reversal may be developing.
A pitchfork requires three pivot points:
• Point A — The anchor (starting pivot)
• Point B — First swing in the opposite direction
• Point C — Second swing, same direction as A
The median line runs from Point A through the midpoint of B-C. Parallel lines through B and C form the channel boundaries.
Action/Reaction Principle
Based on Newton's third law ("action and reaction are equal and opposite"), this principle suggests that price movements elicit proportional reactions in the future. By projecting lines at equal intervals along the pitchfork's slope, we anticipate where these reactions may occur.
Lattice Matrix
The lattice squares pivot price levels to the matrix structure. A horizontal from your selected pivot intersects the pitchfork and propagation lines, with verticals drawn at each intersection. These verticals mark time points where price-time geometry converges—potential areas to watch for trend changes.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ HOW THE INDICATOR WORKS
This section explains the calculation flow from your inputs to the final drawing.
Step 1 — Pivot Selection
You click on the chart to select three timestamps. The indicator retrieves the high or low price at each timestamp based on your starting pivot type selection:
• Starting with "Low" creates a Low-High-Low pattern
• Starting with "High" creates a High-Low-High pattern
Step 2 — Anchor Calculation
The anchor position depends on your pitchfork variant:
• Original — Anchor stays at Point A
• Schiff — Anchor shifts 50% toward B in price (Y-axis only)
• Modified Schiff — Anchor shifts 50% toward B in both time and price
Step 3 — Median Line
A line is drawn from the anchor through the midpoint of the B-C segment. This median line defines the channel's slope and center.
Step 4 — Parallel Tines
Parallel lines are drawn through Points B and C, maintaining the median line's slope. These form the upper and lower channel boundaries.
Step 5 — Extra Parallels
If configured, additional parallel lines are drawn at equal spacing beyond B and C. The spacing equals the distance from the median to each tine.
Step 6 — Handle Length
The "handle" is the segment from the anchor to the B-C midpoint. This length becomes the unit of measurement for propagation.
Step 7 — Propagation Points
Points are placed along the median line at handle-length intervals:
• Forward points extend into the future
• Backward points extend into the past
Step 8 — Reaction Lines
Through each propagation point, a line is drawn parallel to B-C (the transversal slope). These reaction lines mark time-price zones based on the original swing rhythm, where trend changes may occur.
Step 9 — Action Lines
Through each propagation point, a line is drawn parallel to A-B (the initial move slope). These action lines project the original momentum into future price zones.
Step 10 — Lattice Grid
If enabled, a horizontal line is drawn at the price level of your selected pivot. Vertical lines are then drawn at every intersection between this horizontal and the selected line type (pitchfork, reaction, or action lines).
Step 11 — Alert Monitoring
On each bar, the indicator checks if the price has crossed any of the drawn lines. Crossings trigger alerts based on your configuration.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ PITCHFORK VARIANTS
Original (Andrews)
The classic pitchfork. The anchor remains at Point A. Best suited for strong trending markets where price respects steep channels.
Schiff
Named after Jerome Schiff, a student of Andrews. The anchor shifts halfway toward Point B in price only—same time position as A, but price is the midpoint of A and B.
This produces a less steep channel, better suited for:
• Shallow trends
• Corrective phases
• Markets where the original pitchfork angle is too aggressive
Modified Schiff
The anchor shifts halfway toward Point B in both time and price—positioned at the midpoint of the A-B segment.
This creates an even gentler slope than the standard Schiff variant. Use when:
• Trends are weak or ranging
• Price doesn't respect steeper channel angles
• You need a middle ground between Original and Schiff
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ ACTION & REACTION LINES
Reaction Lines
These run parallel to the B-C segment (the "transversal"). They represent the market's response rhythm—the swing from B to C sets a pattern that may repeat at predictable intervals.
Action Lines
These run parallel to the A-B segment (the initial impulse). They project the original momentum forward, suggesting where similar price movements may begin or end.
Forward vs Backward
• Forward Lines — Project into the future beyond the B-C midpoint
• Backward Lines — Project into the past before Point A
Most analysis focuses on forward lines, but backward lines can reveal historical confluence with past pivots.
Propagation Spacing
Lines are spaced at equal intervals defined by the handle length (anchor to B-C midpoint). This creates a rhythmic structure where each segment equals the original pitchfork's core measurement.
Action Lines
Reaction Lines
Extra Parallels with/ both Action & Reactions Line extended within the grid
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ LATTICE MATRIX
The lattice creates a grid overlay within the pitchfork structure.
Horizontal Line
A horizontal line is drawn at the price level of your selected pivot (A, B, or C). This squares the pivot's price level to find where it aligns with the matrix structure. These confluences may represent higher-probability reaction points in time.
Vertical Lines
Vertical lines are drawn at every point where the horizontal intersects your selected line source. These verticals mark time points—potential areas to watch for trend changes.
• Pitchfork & Parallels — Intersections with median and all parallel tines
• Action Lines — Intersections with action transversals
• Reaction Lines — Intersections with reaction transversals
• Action & Reaction — Both types combined
Envelope Clamping
Lattice lines are automatically clamped to stay within the pitchfork's channel envelope (bounded by the outermost parallels). This keeps the grid visually clean and focused on relevant areas.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ ALERTS
The indicator monitors price crossings and triggers alerts when the price moves through any drawn line type.
Available Alert Types
• Pitchfork Lines — Crossing the median or any parallel
• Action Lines — Crossing any action transversal (when action lines are drawn)
• Reaction Lines — Crossing any reaction transversal (when reaction lines are drawn)
• Lattice Horizontal — Crossing the horizontal price level (when lattice is enabled)
• Any Line Crossing — Combined alert for all of the above
Setting Up Alerts
1. Right-click on the indicator or use the alert menu
2. Select "Create Alert."
3. Choose the desired condition from the dropdown
4. Configure notification preferences (pop-up, email, webhook, etc.)
Alert Timing
Alerts trigger once per bar close when a crossing is detected between the previous and current bar's close prices.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ HOW TO USE
Basic Setup
1. Add the indicator to your chart
2. When prompted, click on three pivot points in sequence: A, B, C
3. Choose starting pivot type: Auto (detects pattern), Low (LHL), or High (HLH)
4. The pitchfork draws automatically
Adjusting the Pitchfork
• Change the variant (Original/Schiff/Modified Schiff) if the angle doesn't suit your trend
• Add extra parallel levels to see where price might react beyond the main channel
• Disable or Adjust price range min/max to hide parallels outside your focus area
Adding Propagation Lines
• Adjust forward offset to add/remove lines beyond auto-extend (0 = to current bar)
• Choose which line types to display: Reaction Only, Action Only, or Both
• Customize colors to distinguish line types visually
Using the Lattice
• Enable "Draw Lattice" in the Lattice settings group
• Select which pivot's price level to use for the horizontal
• Choose the intersection source that matches your analysis style
• Look for time zones where verticals cluster—these may be significant dates
Log Scale Charts

Strict EMA Wick Pullback Trend ContinuationThis script is a strict EMA pullback entry model
designed exclusively for trend continuation traders.
It does NOT attempt to predict tops or bottoms.
It waits for established trends and enters only
on shallow pullbacks with defined risk.
OVERVIEW
This strategy is built for disciplined trend continuation trading.
It looks for shallow pullbacks into a fast EMA during established uptrends
and exits when trend structure breaks.
There is no counter-trend logic and no optimization for win rate.
ENTRY LOGIC
A long entry is triggered when:
• Price pulls back into the fast EMA area (wick touch)
• The pullback remains above the slow EMA (trend integrity)
• The candle closes bullish
• Optional: slow EMA is rising (trend filter)
RISK MANAGEMENT
• A dynamic stop is placed just below the fast EMA
• The stop only tightens — it never loosens
• Losses are small and predefined
• The system is designed to be scaled via position sizing
EXIT LOGIC
• Positions are closed when the fast EMA crosses below the slow EMA
• This represents a breakdown of trend continuation structure
WHAT THIS STRATEGY IS
• A trend continuation entry module
• Risk-first by design
• Low win-rate, high payoff profile
• Designed for trending markets
WHAT THIS STRATEGY IS NOT
• Not a reversal system
• Not a scalping strategy
• Not a signal service
• Not optimized for ranging markets
• Not a promise of profitability
IMPORTANT NOTES
• Long-only by design (BTC context)
• No repainting logic
• Best used with higher-timeframe trend confirmation
• This is a tool, not financial advice
Recommended markets: BTCUSD / BTCUSDT
Timeframe: 1D
Trend filter: ON
Risk: fixed % per trade (user-defined)

This indicator is purely for Trend Trading by observing the Exponential moving average 200.
When the price is above EMA 200 it is considered Bullish and When the price is below EMA 200 it is considered Bearish. Entry will be made in pullback of 25 EMA.
Aura Squeeze Projections [Pineify]Pineify - Aura Squeeze Projections
This indicator combines the volatility compression detection of the TTM Squeeze methodology with an innovative "aura glow" visualization, offering traders a clear and aesthetically distinct way to identify low-volatility consolidation phases and anticipate breakout directions. By merging Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channels, and linear regression momentum analysis, the Aura Squeeze Projections provides actionable squeeze signals with directional bias.
Key Features
Visual "aura glow" effect highlighting squeeze zones and momentum shifts
Squeeze detection combining Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels
Linear regression-based momentum for directional bias
Dynamic candle coloring reflecting current market state
Squeeze start and release signal markers
How It Works
The core logic identifies volatility compression by comparing Bollinger Bands to Keltner Channels. When the Bollinger Bands contract inside the Keltner Channel boundaries (BB upper < KC upper AND BB lower > KC lower), the market enters a "squeeze" state — a period of low volatility that often precedes significant price movement.
Momentum direction is calculated using a linear regression slope of the difference between price and its moving average. A positive slope indicates bullish momentum; negative indicates bearish momentum. This determines the anticipated breakout direction when the squeeze releases.
How Multiple Indicators Work Together
Bollinger Bands measure statistical volatility through standard deviation, expanding during high volatility and contracting during consolidation. Keltner Channels use Average True Range (ATR) for a smoother volatility envelope. When BB fits entirely within KC, volatility has compressed below normal levels — the squeeze condition.
The linear regression momentum component adds directional intelligence. Rather than simply detecting compression, it forecasts the likely breakout direction by analyzing the trend slope of price deviation from its mean. This synergy transforms a binary squeeze signal into an actionable directional setup.
Unique Aspects
The "aura glow" visualization creates gradient fills between the trend midline and Keltner boundaries, providing an intuitive heat-map style view of market conditions. Colors transition dynamically: gray during squeeze (consolidation), green for bullish momentum, and red for bearish momentum. This makes market state immediately recognizable at a glance.
How to Use
Watch for the gray squeeze state indicating volatility compression
Note the circle marker appearing above bars when squeeze begins
Observe when the diamond marker appears below bars — squeeze release
The color at release (green/red) indicates anticipated breakout direction
Use candle coloring for confirmation of momentum alignment
Customization
Lookback Length : Adjusts sensitivity (shorter = more signals, longer = fewer but stronger)
BB/KC Multipliers : Fine-tune squeeze detection threshold
Use EMA : Toggle between EMA (smoother) or SMA for the midline basis
Aura Transparency : Control visual intensity of the glow effect
Conclusion
Aura Squeeze Projections offers a refined approach to squeeze-based trading by combining proven volatility compression detection with momentum-based directional analysis and distinctive visual presentation. The indicator helps traders identify consolidation periods and prepare for breakouts with directional confidence. Best used alongside price action analysis and support/resistance levels for confirmation.
RSI-RS StrategyRSI-RS Strategy: Smart Trend Following 🚀
Overview
This strategy combines Multi-Timeframe RSI with Mansfield Relative Strength to identify high-momentum breakouts in strong stocks. Unlike standard RSI strategies, it features a "Smart Trailing Stop" that tightens when momentum weakens but respects key RSI 50 support levels to avoid shaking you out of winning trades.
Key Features ✨
1. 🎯 High-Probability Entries
Multi-Confirmations: Requires Monthly RSI > 60 and Weekly RSI > 60 (Trend is Up).
Dual Trigger: Enters on a Daily RSI Breakout (>60) OR a Weekly RSI Catch-up, ensuring you don't miss late moves.
RS Filter: Only buys stocks outperforming the Index (RS > 0).
New Listing Safe: Automatically skips Monthly checks for new IPOs lacking history.
2. 🛡️ Advanced "Hybrid" Stop Loss
This strategy solves the "Wick Out" problem:
Confirmation Exit: If price drops below the Stop Loss, it waits for the Next Candle to confirm the breakdown. It ignores intraday wicks!
Crash Protection: Includes a "Panic Button" (Default 3% buffer). If price crashes rapidly intraday, it exits immediately to save capital.
Smart Trailing: The Stop Loss moves UP when RSI shows weakness (<60), locking in profits.
3. 🧠 Smart Support Buffer
Wait for 50: Uniquely detects when RSI is resting on 50 Support (Zone 50-55).
Patience: It ignores minor weakness signals in this zone, waiting for a bounce instead of exiting prematurely.
4. 🧹 Clean Visuals
Minimalist Labels: Transparent Entry/Exit labels that don't declutter the chart.
Setup Watch: Visually signals "Watch > " before the trade triggers.
Transparency: "SL Update" diamonds prove exactly why the stop moved (showing the RSI value).
Settings Guide ⚙️
Confirmation Window: How many bars the breakout remains valid (Default: 2).
RSI Support Buffer: The "Safe Zone" range above 50 (Default: 5).
Crash Buffer %: Distance below SL for immediate emergency exit (Default: 3.0%).
Visuals: Toggle Setup Labels and SL Diamonds on/off to keep your chart clean.
How to Trade It
Green Background: You are in a trade.
Red Line: Your Hard Stop Loss (Closing Basis).
Maroon Dotted Line: Your Crash Limit (Intraday Danger Zone).
Orange Diamond: Warning! RSI Weakness detected, SL has tightened.

Support & Resistance with MA Ribbons LITE Support & Resistance with MA Ribbon LITE
Overview
Support & Resistance with MA Ribbon LITE is a technical analysis indicator for TradingView that combines a flexible Moving Average (MA) Ribbon with a dynamic Support & Resistance (S/R) system.
The indicator is designed as a visual decision-support tool, allowing traders to evaluate trend structure, momentum context, and key price reaction zones within a single, uncluttered chart overlay.
This script is published as open source under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 , encouraging transparency, learning, and community-driven development.
Core Components
1. Moving Average Ribbon System
The MA Ribbon consists of two configurable moving averages (Fast and Slow) with multiple calculation and smoothing options, including:
EMA, SMA, WMA, VWMA
DEMA, TEMA, Zero-Lag EMA
Hull MA, Linear Regression MA
Super Smoother, Smoothed MA, Laguerre MA
Key features include:
Trend-aware ribbon fill (bullish / bearish)
Optional candle coloring aligned with ribbon state
Minute-based anchor timeframe logic for consistent trend structure
Optional MA cross, swing, and continuation markers
Alert support for MA-related events
The MA Ribbon is intended to provide trend context , not standalone trade signals.
2. Support & Resistance Engine
The Support & Resistance system is based on pivot structure analysis and dynamically adapts to new price data.
Features include:
Main and strong support/resistance levels
Up to 12 active levels displayed on the chart
Preset sensitivities (Scalp, Intraday, Swing) and custom configuration
Optional multi-timeframe (MTF) level detection
Adaptive labels with automatic contrast handling
Optional strength filtering based on historical interactions
Optional heat map visualization reflecting level interaction frequency
All levels are plotted directly on the price chart for immediate contextual reference.
Alert System
The script includes a configurable alert framework covering:
Main and strong level touches
Breakouts and breakdowns
Retests of broken levels
Optional rejection detection (wick beyond a level with close back inside)
Cooldown logic to limit repeated alerts in consolidation phases
Alerts are informational only and should always be confirmed visually.
Customization & Performance
Unified color presets (Classic, Aqua, Cosmic, Ember, Neon, Custom)
Independent opacity control for MA Ribbon and candles
Modular on/off controls for MA Ribbon and S/R components
Optimized plotting to remain within TradingView limits
Designed for stable performance across lower and higher timeframes
Intended Use
This indicator is designed to assist with chart interpretation and market structure analysis. It may help users:
Identify prevailing trend conditions
Observe price behavior around structurally relevant levels
Combine trend context with horizontal market structure
Reduce chart clutter by consolidating multiple concepts into one script
This indicator is not a trading strategy, does not provide financial advice, and should be used alongside independent analysis and appropriate risk management.
How to Use
1. Chart Setup
Add the indicator to any chart and timeframe.
Both the MA Ribbon and Support & Resistance systems are enabled by default and can be managed independently via the Master Controls section.
General guidance:
Higher timeframes for structural context
Lower timeframes for execution and refinement
Applicable across different markets and instruments
2. Using the MA Ribbon
The MA Ribbon visualizes trend direction and momentum context.
General interpretation:
Price above both MAs → bullish bias
Price below both MAs → bearish bias
Ribbon color reflects trend alignment
Ribbon compression may indicate consolidation or transition
Optional features include candle coloring, MA cross markers, and filtered continuation arrows.
Best practice:
Use the MA Ribbon to identify the market regime before reacting to support or resistance levels.
MA Ribbon – Minute-Based Timeframe Logic
Anchor Timeframe (Minutes)
Anchors MA calculations to a fixed timeframe expressed in minutes.
Examples:
60 = 1 hour
240 = 4 hours
0 = use current chart timeframe
How It Works
The anchor automatically scales MA lengths so that the same trend structure is preserved across different chart timeframes.
Example (Anchor = 60):
5-minute chart → follows 1-hour structure
15-minute chart → follows the same 1-hour structure
1-hour chart → standard calculation
Show Ribbon Only If Chart TF > Anchor
Optionally hides the MA Ribbon on chart timeframes lower than the anchor to reduce visual noise.
3. Using Support & Resistance Levels
Support and resistance levels are derived from pivot structures and update dynamically.
Level types:
Main Support / Resistance (most recent and relevant)
Strong Support / Resistance (confirmed pivots)
Additional historical levels (up to 12 total)
Usage guidelines:
Focus on price behavior around levels rather than exact prices
Combine level reactions with MA Ribbon trend context
Use strength filtering to reduce weaker levels
Heat map mode highlights frequently interacted zones
4. Combining Trend and Structure
The indicator is most effective when both systems are used together:
In uptrends, focus on reactions near support
In downtrends, focus on reactions near resistance
Breakouts are more relevant when aligned with trend context
Retests gain importance when structure and trend agree
Customization Tips
Use preset sensitivities (Scalp / Intraday / Swing) for quick setup
Enable MTF S/R to reference higher-timeframe structure
Adjust label size, offset, and precision for readability
Disable unused components to improve performance on lower-end systems
This combined view helps improve contextual clarity and reduce noise.
5. Alerts Usage
Alerts are optional and fully configurable.
Cooldown settings can be used to limit repeated notifications during ranging conditions.
All alerts are informational and should be visually validated.

Elder AutoEnvelope 1m/5mOverview
This script is an advanced implementation of Dr. Alexander Elder’s AutoEnvelope, specifically optimized for 1-minute (1m) and 5-minute (5m) low-timeframe trading.
The logic treats the market as a "manic-depressive" entity:
Center Line (26 EMA): Represents the fair value consensus.
Fast Line (13 EMA): Captures short-term price momentum.
Envelopes (Bands): Represent the limits of price "sanity." Under normal conditions, 95% of price action should remain within these bands.
Key Features
Powered by Pine Script V6: Built on the latest engine for maximum precision and performance.
Real-time Coverage Tracker: A dashboard in the top-right corner displays the percentage of price bars contained within the bands over the lookback period. The goal is to adjust the Multiplier until coverage is ~95%.
Dual Smoothing: To combat high-frequency noise on 1m/5m charts, this script applies a secondary smoothing layer to the channel width, preventing the "jagged" lines found in standard indicators.
Recommended Settings
Lookback: Defaulted to 300. On a 1m chart, this represents 5 hours of data, providing a much more robust "normal" range than the standard 100-period setting.
Multiplier: Usually ranges between 2.0 and 3.5 depending on the asset's volatility. Tune this until the Coverage Panel shows ~95%.
SmoothLen: Defaulted to 20. Increase this value for even smoother, more "parallel" bands during high-noise sessions.
Practical Trading Advice
Take Profit Zones: In an uptrend, treat the Upper Band as a primary target. When price pierces the band and closes back inside, it’s often the climax of the move.
Mean Reversion: When price touches the Lower Band while significantly stretched away from the yellow Center Line, look for a bounce back to the value area, especially if the Purple Fast Line begins to flatten.
Trend Filtering:
Price above Fast Line (Purple) + Upward slope: Bullish bias. Only look for Longs or Profit Taking.
Price below Fast Line (Purple) + Downward slope: Bearish bias. Only look for Shorts or Covering.
Asset Calibration: When switching assets (e.g., Gold to BTC), always fine-tune the Multiplier. The bands are only statistically valid when the Coverage Panel stays between 94% and 96%.
指标简介
本脚本是基于亚历山大·爱尔德博士（Dr. Alexander Elder）著名的“自动包络线”（AutoEnvelope）理论开发的进阶版本，特别针对 1分钟（1m）和 5分钟（5m） 等短周期高频交易进行了优化。
该指标的核心逻辑是将市场视为一个“躁郁症患者”：
中心线 (26 EMA)：代表市场的平均价值认同。
快线 (13 EMA)：代表短期价格动能。
包络线 (Bands)：代表价格波动的极端边界（95% 的价格应运行在通道内）。
核心功能
V6 引擎驱动：采用最新的 Pine Script V6 编写，计算更精准，内存占用更低。
实时覆盖率统计：右上角实时显示过去 300 根 K 线中有多少比例落在通道内。目标是手动调整倍数（Multiplier）使该数值维持在 95% 左右。
双重平滑处理：针对短线噪音，对通道宽度进行了二次平滑，避免了传统指标在 1 分钟图上常见的“锯齿状”变形。
参数设置建议
Lookback (回溯周期)：默认 300。在 1m 图上代表过去 5 小时，能提供比默认 100 周期更稳定的边界。
Multiplier (偏离倍数)：根据不同品种调整（通常在 2.0 - 3.5）。请观察右上角面板，当覆盖率接近 95% 时，该倍数最为准确。
SmoothLen (平滑系数)：默认 20。如果觉得轨道太乱，可调高此值。
实际交易建议
波段止盈点：在上升趋势中，当价格刺破上轨且 K 线实体收回上轨下方时，是绝佳的多头平仓位。
均值回归：当价格偏离中心线触碰下轨，且快线（紫色）开始走平时，预示即将反弹回中心线。
趋势过滤：
价格在快线（紫色）上方且快线斜率向上：只做多或平多，不逆势抄顶。
价格在快线（紫色）下方且快线斜率向下：只做空或平空。
覆盖率校准：切换交易品种（如从黄金切换到比特币）后，务必微调 Multiplier，确保覆盖率处于 94%-96% 之间，此时的边界才具有统计学意义。
Time Pressure ZonesTime Pressure Zones is a multi‑purpose candle and volume‑based indicator that highlights moments when markets are likely being driven by urgency rather than routine trading flow.
**Overview**
Detects sequences of strong, one‑directional candles accompanied by volume spikes to approximate institutional time pressure (forced buying or selling).
Paints subtle background zones, labels, and a net‑pressure histogram so you can see when aggressive flow is building or exhausting across any instrument and timeframe.
**Core Logic**
A bar is tagged “strong” when its real body occupies at least a user‑defined percentage of the full high‑low range, filtering out indecision candles and long‑wick noise.
Volume is compared to a rolling 20‑bar average; only bars with volume above a configurable multiple are treated as meaningful participation, which makes the tool adapt to different symbols and sessions.
The script counts consecutive bars that are both strong and high‑volume in the same direction, then flags a time‑pressure event once a set fraction of the lookback has been reached (e.g., 2 out of 3, 3 out of 5).
**Visual Outputs**
Background shading: green or red bands mark active bullish or bearish time‑pressure windows without overpowering other tools on the chart.
On‑chart labels: “↑ Time Pressure” and “↓ Time Pressure” appear only on the first bar of a new pressure sequence, ideal for alerts and discretionary entries.
Net Pressure histogram: plots the difference between bullish and bearish streak counts, giving a quick at‑a‑glance sense of which side currently dominates.
**Sessions and News**
Uses UTC‑based logic to highlight London and New York open and close windows, where institutional flows and intraday “deadline” behavior tend to cluster.
Includes a manual News Window toggle so you can mark high‑impact event periods (CPI, FOMC, NFP, etc.), aligning tape‑based urgency with scheduled catalysts.
**How To Use**
Look to join moves when fresh time‑pressure labels print into session opens, breakouts, or key levels, rather than fading them.
Tune the three main inputs per market and timeframe: lower thresholds for choppy or thin markets, and higher body/volume requirements for very liquid symbols like major indices or BTC pairs.
Quality-Controlled Trend StrategyOverview
This strategy demonstrates a clean, execution-aware trend framework with fully isolated risk management.
Entry conditions and risk logic are intentionally separated so risk parameters can be adjusted without altering signal behavior.
All calculations are evaluated on confirmed bars to ensure backtest behavior reflects real-time execution.
Design intent
Many scripts mix entries and exits in ways that make results fragile or misleading.
This strategy focuses on structural clarity by enforcing:
confirmed-bar logic only
fixed and transparent risk handling
consistent indicator calculations
one position at a time
It is intended as a baseline framework rather than an optimized system.
Trading logic (high level)
Trend context
EMA 50 vs EMA 200 defines directional bias
Entry
Price alignment with EMA 50
RSI used as a momentum confirmation, not as an overbought/oversold signal
Risk management
Stop-loss based on ATR
Fixed risk–reward structure
Risk logic is isolated from entry logic
Editing risk without affecting signals
All stop-loss and take-profit calculations are handled in a dedicated block.
Users can adjust:
ATR length
stop-loss multiplier
risk–reward ratio
without modifying entry conditions.
This allows controlled experimentation while preserving signal integrity.
Usage notes
Results vary by market, timeframe, and volatility conditions.
This script is provided for testing and educational purposes and should be validated across multiple symbols and forward-tested before use in live environments.
Smart Money Flow Cloud [BOSWaves]Smart Money Flow Cloud - Volume-Weighted Trend Detection with Adaptive Volatility Bands
Overview
Smart Money Flow Cloud is a volume flow-aware trend detection system that identifies directional market regimes through money flow analysis, constructing adaptive volatility bands that expand and contract based on institutional pressure intensity.
Instead of relying on traditional moving average crossovers or fixed-width channels, trend direction, band width, and signal generation are determined through volume-weighted money flow calculation, nonlinear flow strength modulation, and volatility-adaptive band construction.
This creates dynamic trend boundaries that reflect actual institutional buying and selling pressure rather than price momentum alone - tightening during periods of weak flow conviction, expanding during strong directional moves, and incorporating flow strength statistics to reveal whether regimes formed under accumulation or distribution conditions.
Price is therefore evaluated relative to adaptive bands anchored at a flow-informed baseline rather than conventional trend-following indicators.
Conceptual Framework
Smart Money Flow Cloud is founded on the principle that sustainable trends emerge where volume-weighted money flow confirms directional price movement rather than where price alone creates patterns.
Traditional trend indicators identify regime changes through price crossovers or slope analysis, which often ignore the underlying volume dynamics that validate or contradict those movements.This framework replaces price-centric logic with flow-driven regime detection informed by actual buying and selling volume.
Three core principles guide the design:
Trend direction should correspond to volume-weighted flow dominance, not price movement alone.
Band width must adapt dynamically to current flow strength and volatility conditions.
Flow intensity context reveals whether regimes formed under conviction or uncertainty.
This shifts trend analysis from static moving averages into adaptive, flow-anchored regime boundaries.
Theoretical Foundation
The indicator combines adaptive baseline smoothing, close location value (CLV) methodology, volume-weighted flow tracking, and nonlinear strength amplification.
A smoothed trend baseline (EMA or ALMA) establishes the core directional reference, while close location value measures where price settled within each bar's range. Volume weighting applies directional magnitude to flow calculation, which accumulates into a normalized money flow ratio. Flow strength undergoes nonlinear power transformation to amplify strong conviction periods and dampen weak flow environments. Average True Range (ATR) provides volatility-responsive band sizing, with final width determined by the interaction between base volatility and flow-modulated multipliers.
Four internal systems operate in tandem:
Adaptive Baseline Engine : Computes smoothed trend reference using either EMA or ALMA methodology with configurable secondary smoothing.
Money Flow Calculation System : Measures volume-weighted directional pressure through CLV analysis and ratio normalization.
Nonlinear Flow Strength Modulation : Applies power transformation to flow intensity, creating dynamic sensitivity scaling.
Volatility-Adaptive Band Construction : Scales band width using ATR measurement combined with flow-strength multipliers that range from minimum (calm) to maximum (strong flow) expansion.
This design allows bands to reflect actual institutional behavior rather than reacting mechanically to price volatility alone.
How It Works
Smart Money Flow Cloud evaluates price through a sequence of flow-aware processes:
Close Location Value (CLV) Calculation : Each bar's closing position within its high-low range is measured, creating a directional bias indicator ranging from -1 (closed at low) to +1 (closed at high).
Volume-Weighted Flow Tracking : CLV is multiplied by bar volume, then accumulated and normalized over a configurable flow window to produce a money flow ratio between -1 and +1.
Flow Smoothing and Strength Extraction : The raw money flow ratio undergoes optional smoothing, then nonlinear power transformation to amplify strong flow periods and compress weak flow environments.
Adaptive Baseline Construction : Price (both open and close) is smoothed using either EMA or ALMA methodology with optional secondary smoothing to create a stable trend reference.
Dynamic Band Sizing : ATR measurement is multiplied by a flow-strength-modulated factor that interpolates between minimum (tight) and maximum (wide) multipliers based on current flow conviction.
Regime Detection and Visualization : Price crossing above the upper band triggers bullish regime, crossing below the lower band triggers bearish regime. The baseline cloud visualizes open-close relationship within the current trend.
Retest Signal Generation : Price touching the baseline from within an established regime generates retest signals with configurable cooldown periods to prevent noise.
Together, these elements form a continuously updating trend framework anchored in volume flow reality.
Interpretation
Smart Money Flow Cloud should be interpreted as flow-confirmed trend boundaries:
Bullish Regime (Blue) : Activated when price crosses above the upper adaptive band, indicating volume-confirmed buying pressure exceeding volatility-adjusted resistance.
Bearish Regime (Red) : Established when price crosses below the lower adaptive band, identifying volume-confirmed selling pressure breaking volatility-adjusted support.
Baseline Cloud : The gap between smoothed open and smoothed close within the baseline visualizes intrabar directional bias - wider clouds indicate stronger intrabar momentum.
Adaptive Band Width : Reflects combined volatility and flow strength - wider bands during high-conviction institutional activity, tighter bands during consolidation or weak flow periods.
Buy/Sell Labels : Appear at regime switches when price crosses from one band to the other, marking potential trend inception points.
Retest Signals (✦) : Diamond markers indicate price touching the baseline within an established regime, often occurring during healthy pullbacks in trending markets.
Trend Strength Gauge : Visual meter displays current regime strength as a percentage, calculated from price position within the active band relative to baseline.
Background Gradient : Optional coloring intensity reflects flow strength magnitude, darkening during high-conviction periods.
Flow strength, band width adaptation, and baseline relationship outweigh isolated price fluctuations.
Signal Logic & Visual Cues
Smart Money Flow Cloud presents three primary interaction signals:
Regime Switch - Buy : Blue "Buy" label appears when price crosses above the upper band after previously being in a bearish regime, suggesting volume-confirmed bullish transition.
Regime Switch - Sell : Red "Sell" label displays when price crosses below the lower band after previously being in a bullish regime, indicating volume-confirmed bearish transition.
Trend Retest : Diamond (✦) markers appear when price touches the baseline within an established regime, with configurable cooldown periods to filter noise.
Alert generation covers regime switches and retest events for systematic monitoring.
Strategy Integration
Smart Money Flow Cloud fits within volume-informed and institutional flow trading approaches:
Flow-Confirmed Entry : Use regime switches as primary trend inception signals where volume validates directional breakouts.
Retest-Based Refinement : Enter on baseline retest signals within established regimes for improved risk-reward positioning during pullbacks.
Band Width Context : Expect wider price swings when bands expand (high flow strength), tighter ranges when bands contract (weak flow).
Baseline Cloud Confirmation : Favor trades where baseline cloud width confirms intrabar momentum alignment with regime direction.
Strength Gauge Filtering : Use trend strength percentage to gauge continuation probability - higher readings suggest stronger institutional conviction.
Multi-Timeframe Regime Alignment : Apply higher-timeframe regime context to filter lower-timeframe entries, taking only setups aligned with dominant flow direction.
Technical Implementation Details
Core Engine : Configurable EMA or ALMA baseline with secondary smoothing
Flow Model : Close Location Value (CLV) with volume weighting and ratio normalization
Strength Transformation : Configurable power function for nonlinear flow amplification
Band Construction : ATR-scaled width with flow-strength-interpolated multipliers
Visualization : Dual-line baseline cloud with gradient fills, regime-colored bands, and embedded strength gauge
Signal Logic : Band crossover detection with baseline retest identification and cooldown management
Performance Profile : Optimized for real-time execution with minimal computational overhead
Optimal Application Parameters
Timeframe Guidance:
1 - 5 min : Micro-structure regime detection for scalping and intraday reversals
15 - 60 min : Intraday trend identification with flow-validated swings
4H - Daily : Swing and position-level regime analysis with institutional flow context
Suggested Baseline Configuration:
Trend Length : 34
Trend Engine : EMA
Trend Smoothing : 3
Flow Window : 24
Flow Smoothing : 5
Flow Boost : 1.2
ATR Length : 14
Band Tightness (Calm) : 0.9
Band Expansion (Strong Flow) : 2.2
Reset Cooldown : 12
These suggested parameters should be used as a baseline; their effectiveness depends on the asset's volume profile, volatility characteristics, and preferred signal frequency, so fine-tuning is expected for optimal performance.
Parameter Calibration Notes
Use the following adjustments to refine behavior without altering the core logic:
Bands too wide/frequent whipsaws : Reduce "Band Expansion (Strong Flow)" to limit maximum band width, or increase "Band Tightness (Calm)" to widen minimum bands and reduce noise sensitivity.
Trend baseline too choppy : Increase "Trend Length" for smoother baseline, or increase "Trend Smoothing" for additional filtering.
Flow readings unstable : Increase "Flow Smoothing" to reduce bar-to-bar noise in money flow calculation.
Missing legitimate regime changes : Decrease "Trend Length" for faster baseline response, or reduce "Band Tightness (Calm)" for earlier breakout detection.
Too many retest signals : Increase "Reset Cooldown" to space out retest markers, or disable retest signals entirely if not using pullback entries.
Flow strength not responding : Increase "Flow Boost" (power factor) to amplify strong flow differentiation, or decrease "Flow Window" to emphasize recent volume activity.
Prefer different smoothing characteristics : Switch "Trend Engine" to ALMA and adjust "ALMA Offset" (higher = more recent weighting) and "ALMA Sigma" (higher = smoother) for alternative baseline behavior.
Adjustments should be incremental and evaluated across multiple session types rather than isolated market conditions.
Performance Characteristics
High Effectiveness:
Markets with consistent volume participation and institutional flow
Instruments where volume accurately reflects true liquidity and conviction
Trending environments where flow confirms directional price movement
Mean-reversion strategies using retest signals within established regimes
Reduced Effectiveness:
Extremely low volume environments where flow calculations become unreliable
News-driven or gapped markets with discontinuous volume patterns
Highly manipulated or thinly traded instruments with erratic volume distribution
Ranging markets where price oscillates within bands without conviction
Integration Guidelines
Confluence : Combine with BOSWaves structure, order flow analysis, or traditional volume profile
Flow Validation : Trust regime switches accompanied by strong flow readings and wide band expansion
Context Awareness : Consider whether current market regime matches historical flow patterns
Retest Discipline : Use baseline retest signals as confirmation within trends, not standalone entries
Breach Management : Exit regime-aligned positions when price crosses opposing band with volume confirmation
Disclaimer
Smart Money Flow Cloud is a professional-grade volume flow and trend analysis tool. Results depend on market conditions, volume reliability, parameter selection, and disciplined execution. BOSWaves recommends deploying this indicator within a broader analytical framework that incorporates price structure, market context, and comprehensive risk management.
