Linear Trajectory & Volume StructureThe Linear Trajectory & Volume Structure indicator is a comprehensive trend-following system designed to identify market direction, volatility-adjusted channels, and high-probability entry points. Unlike standard Moving Averages, this tool utilizes Linear Regression logic to calculate the "best fit" trajectory of price, encased within volatility bands (ATR) to filter out market noise.
It integrates three core analytical components into a single interface:
Trend Engine: A Linear Regression Curve to determine the mean trajectory.
Volume Verification: Filters signals to ensure price movement is backed by market participation.
Market Structure: Identifies previous high-volume supply and demand zones for support and resistance analysis.
2. Core Components and Logic
The Trajectory Engine
The backbone of the system is a Linear Regression calculation. This statistical method fits a straight line through recent price data points to determine the current slope and direction.
The Baseline: Represents the "fair value" or mean trajectory of the asset.
The Cloud: Calculated using Average True Range (ATR). It expands during high volatility and contracts during consolidation.
Trend Definition:
Bullish: Price breaks above the Upper Deviation Band.
Bearish: Price breaks below the Lower Deviation Band.
Neutral/Chop: Price remains inside the cloud.
Smart Volume Filter
The indicator includes a toggleable volume filter. When enabled, the script calculates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume.
High Volume: Current volume is greater than the Volume SMA.
Signal Validation: Reversal signals and structure zones are only generated if High Volume is present, reducing the likelihood of trading false breakouts on low liquidity.
Volume Structure (Smart Liquidity)
The script automatically plots Support (Demand) and Resistance (Supply) boxes based on pivot points.
Creation: A box is drawn only if a pivot high or low is formed with High Volume (if the volume filter is active).
Mitigation: The boxes extend to the right. If price breaks through a zone, the box turns gray to indicate the level has been breached.
3. Signal Guide
Trend Reversals (Buy/Sell Labels)
These are the primary signals indicating a potential change in the macro trend.
BUY Signal: Appears when price closes above the upper volatility band after previously being in a downtrend.
SELL Signal: Appears when price closes below the lower volatility band after previously being in an uptrend.
Pullbacks (Small Circles)
These are continuation signals, useful for adding to positions or entering an existing trend.
Long Pullback: The trend is Bullish, but price dips momentarily below the baseline (into the "discount" area) and closes back above it.
Short Pullback: The trend is Bearish, but price rallies momentarily above the baseline (into the "premium" area) and closes back below it.
4. Configuration and Settings
Trend Engine Settings
Trajectory Length: The lookback period for the Linear Regression. This is the most critical setting for tuning sensitivity.
Channel Multiplier: Controls the width of the cloud.
1.0: Aggressive. Results in narrower bands and earlier signals, but more false positives.
1.5: Balanced (Default).
2.0+: Conservative. Creates a wide channel, filtering out significant noise but delaying entry signals.
Signal Logic
Show Trend Reversals: Toggles the main Buy/Sell labels.
Show Pullbacks: Toggles the re-entry circle signals.
Smart Volume Filter: If checked, signals require above-average volume. Unchecking this yields more signals but removes the volume confirmation requirement.
Volume Structure
Show Smart Liquidity: Toggles the Support/Resistance boxes.
Structure Lookback: Defines how many bars constitute a pivot. Higher numbers identify only major market structures.
Max Active Zones: Limits the number of boxes on the chart to prevent clutter.
5. Timeframe Optimization Guide
To maximize the effectiveness of the Linear Trajectory, you must adjust the Trajectory Length input based on your trading style and timeframe.
Scalping (1-Minute to 5-Minute Charts)
Recommended Length: 20 to 30
Multiplier: 1.2 to 1.5
Logic: Fast-moving markets require a shorter lookback to react quickly to micro-trend changes.
Day Trading (15-Minute to 1-Hour Charts)
Recommended Length: 55 (Default)
Multiplier: 1.5
Logic: A balance between responsiveness and noise filtering. The default setting of 55 is standard for identifying intraday sessions.
Swing Trading (4-Hour to Daily Charts)
Recommended Length: 89 to 100
Multiplier: 1.8 to 2.0
Logic: Swing trading requires filtering out intraday noise. A longer length ensures you stay in the trade during minor retracements.
6. Dashboard (HUD) Interpretation
The Head-Up Display (HUD) provides a summary of the current market state without needing to analyze the chart visually.
Bias: Displays the current trend direction (BULLISH or BEARISH).
Momentum:
ACCELERATING: Price is moving away from the baseline (strong trend).
WEAKENING: Price is compressing toward the baseline (potential consolidation or reversal).
Volume: Indicates if the current candle's volume is HIGH or LOW relative to the average.

ChronoFlow## ChronoFlow Sentinel
ChronoFlow Sentinel is a regime console that blends normalized fast/mid/slow regression slopes, phases them against a dual-speed EMA spread, and grades alignment so you instantly know whether the time stack is trending, rotating, or fighting itself.
HOW IT WORKS
Multi-Timeframe Slopes – Linear regression slopes are fetched via request.security() for your chosen fast, mid, and slow frames.
Normalized Weighting – User weights are rescaled so the composite chrono score is always on a consistent scale, regardless of configuration.
Phase Differential – The indicator subtracts a slow EMA from a fast EMA to detect whether price impulse confirms the slope mix.
Alignment Score – Signs of the three slopes are compared to compute a 0-1 alignment metric; backgrounds and alerts use this to signal confidence vs. chop.
Diagnostics Console – A bottom-right table streams each slope, the blended score, and which timeframe currently dominates.
HOW TO USE IT
Trend Qualification : Only push multi-contract positions when chrono score is positive, phase is positive, and alignment stays above your alert threshold (default 0.66).
Chop Defense : When alignment dips and conflict markers appear, immediately switch into mean-reversion tactics or sit flat.
Swing + Intraday Bridge : Pair ChronoFlow with other structure tools; require both aligned backgrounds and price confirmation before committing to swing entries.
CRYPTOCAP:SOL | CRYPTOCAP:XRP side by side view with ChronoFlow
VISUAL FEATURES
Optional flow curves: Enable Plot Raw Flows to audit each timeframe's slope when troubleshooting a signal.
Background intensity: Opacity auto-adjusts with alignment, so weak trends look faded while strong regimes glow vividly.
Signal/Conflict toggles: Long/short and chop markers are opt-in, keeping the panel pristine until you need annotations.
Conflict alerts: Built-in alert condition fires whenever alignment falls below your threshold, warning execution layers to scale down risk.
PARAMETERS
Fast Frame (default: 30): Fast timeframe for regression slope calculation.
Mid Frame (default: 120): Mid timeframe for regression slope calculation.
Slow Frame (default: D): Slow timeframe for regression slope calculation.
Fast Regression (default: 21): Regression length for fast timeframe.
Mid Regression (default: 34): Regression length for mid timeframe.
Slow Regression (default: 55): Regression length for slow timeframe.
Phase Length (default: 13): EMA period for phase differential calculation.
Fast Weight (default: 0.45): Influence of the fast timeframe in the composite score.
Mid Weight (default: 0.35): Influence of the mid timeframe in the composite score.
Slow Weight (default: 0.20): Influence of the slow timeframe in the composite score.
Plot Raw Flows (default: disabled): Enable to audit each timeframe's slope when troubleshooting.
Show Signal Labels (default: disabled): Toggle long/short signal markers.
Show Conflict Labels (default: disabled): Toggle conflict/chop markers.
Conflict Alert Level (default: 0.66): Set the alignment threshold that should trigger reduced size or flat positioning.
ALERTS
The indicator includes three alert conditions:
ChronoFlow Bullish: Detected a bullish regime shift
ChronoFlow Bearish: Detected a bearish regime shift
ChronoFlow Conflict: Flagged a low-alignment regime
LIMITATIONS
This indicator requires access to multiple timeframes via request.security() , which may consume additional resources. The alignment score is a simplified metric—real market conditions are more complex than a 0-1 scale can capture. The phase differential calculation assumes EMA spreads are meaningful proxies for momentum, which may not hold in all market regimes. Users should test parameter combinations on their specific instruments and timeframes, as default values are optimized for typical index futures trading.

Volumetric Inverse Fair Value Gap (IFVG) [Kodexius]The Volumetric Inverse Fair Value Gap (IFVG) indicator detects and visualizes inverse fair value gaps (IFVGs) zones where previous inefficiencies in price (fair value gaps) are later invalidated or “inverted.”
Unlike traditional FVG indicators, this tool integrates volume-based analysis to quantify the bullish, bearish, and overall strength of each inversion. It visually represents these metrics within a dynamically updating box on the chart, giving traders deeper insight into market reactions when liquidity imbalances are filled and reversed.
Features
Inverse fair value gap detection
The script identifies bullish and bearish fair value gaps, stores them as pending zones, and turns them into inverse fair value gaps when price trades back through the gap in the opposite direction. Each valid inversion becomes an active IFVG zone on the chart.
Sensitivity control with ATR filter and strict mode
A minimum gap size based on ATR is used to filter out small and noisy gaps. Strict mode can be enabled so that any wick contact between the relevant candles prevents the gap from being accepted as a fair value gap. This lets you decide how clean and selective the zones should be.
Show Last N Boxes control
The indicator can keep only the most recent N IFVG zones visible. Older zones are removed from the chart once the number of active objects exceeds the user setting. This prevents clutter on higher timeframes or long histories and keeps attention on the most relevant recent zones.
Ghost box for the original gap
When the ghost option is enabled, the script draws a faint box that marks the original fair value gap from which the inverse zone came. This makes it easy to see where the initial imbalance appeared and how price later inverted that area.
Volumetric bull, bear and strength metrics
For each IFVG, the script estimates how much of the bar volume is associated with buying and how much with selling, then computes bull percentage, bear percentage and a strength score that uses a percentile rank of volume. These values are stored with the IFVG object and drive the visualization inside the zone.
Three band visual layout inside each IFVG
Each active IFVG is drawn as a container with three horizontal sections. The top band represents the bull percentage, the middle band the bear percentage and the bottom band the strength metric. The width of each bar reflects its respective value so you can read the structure of the zone at a glance.
Customizable colors and label text
Colors for bull, bear, strength, the empty background area, the ghost box and label text can be adjusted in the inputs. This allows you to match the indicator to different chart themes or highlight specific aspects such as strength or direction.
Automatic invalidation and cleanup
When price clearly closes beyond the IFVG in a way that breaks the logic of that zone, the script marks it as inactive and deletes all boxes and labels linked to it. Only valid and active IFVGs remain on the chart, which keeps the display clean and focused.
Calculations
1. Detecting Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
A fair value gap is identified when price action leaves an imbalance between candle wicks. Depending on the mode:
Bullish FVG: When low > high
Bearish FVG: When high < low
Optionally, the strict mode ensures wicks do not touch.
The gap’s significance is filtered using the ATR multiplier input to exclude minor noise.
Once detected, FVGs are stored as pending zones until inverted by opposite movement (price crossing through).
bool bull_cond = strict_mode ? (low > high ) : (close > high )
bool bear_cond = strict_mode ? (high < low ) : (close < low )
float gap_size = 0.0
if bull_cond and close > open
gap_size := low - high
if bear_cond and close < open
gap_size := low - high
2. Creating IFVGs (Inversions)
When price later moves through a previous FVG in the opposite direction, an Inverse FVG (IFVG) is created.
For example:
A previous bearish FVG becomes bullish IFVG if price moves upward through it.
A previous bullish FVG becomes bearish IFVG if price moves downward through it.
The IFVG is initialized with structural boundaries (top, bottom) and timestamp metadata to anchor visualization.
if not p.is_bull_gap and close > p.top
inverted := true
to_bull := true
if p.is_bull_gap and close < p.btm
inverted := true
to_bull := false
3. Volume Metrics (Bull, Bear, Strength)
Each IFVG calculates buy and sell volumes from the current bar’s price spread and total volume.
Bull % = proportion of upward (buy) volume
Bear % = proportion of downward (sell) volume
Strength % = normalized percentile rank of total volume
These are obtained through a custom function that estimates directional volume contribution:
calc_metrics(float o, float h, float l, float c, float v) =>
float rng = h - l
float buy_v = 0.0
if rng == 0
buy_v := v * 0.5
else
if c >= o
buy_v := v * ((math.abs(c - o) + (math.min(o, c) - l)) / rng)
else
buy_v := v * ((h - math.max(o, c)) / rng)
float sell_v = v - buy_v
float total = buy_v + sell_v
float p_bull = total > 0 ? buy_v / total : 0
float p_bear = total > 0 ? sell_v / total : 0
float p_str = ta.percentrank(v, 100) / 100.0
GCM MACD based Range OscillatorGCM MACD based Range Oscillator (MRO)
Introduction
The GCM MACD based Range Oscillator (MRO) is a hybrid technical indicator that combines the momentum-tracking capabilities of the classic MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) with a custom Range Oscillator.
The core problem this script solves is normalization. Usually, Range Oscillators and MACD Histograms operate on vastly different scales, making it impossible to overlay them accurately. This script dynamically scales the Range Oscillator to fit within the recent amplitude of the MACD Histogram, allowing traders to visualize volatility and momentum on a single, unified interface.
How It Works (The Math)
1. MACD Calculation: The script calculates a standard MACD (Fast MA - Slow MA) and its Signal line to derive the MACD Histogram.
2. Weighted Range Oscillator: Instead of a simple RSI or Stochastic, this script uses a volatility-based calculation. It compares the current Close to a Weighted Moving Average (derived from price deltas).
3. Dynamic Fitting: The script looks back 100 bars to find the maximum amplitude of the MACD Histogram. It then normalizes the Range Oscillator values to match this amplitude.
4. Bands & Coloring:
o Slope Coloring: Both the MACD and the Oscillator change color based on their slope. Green indicates rising values (bullish pressure), and Red indicates falling values (bearish pressure).
o Fixed Bands: Horizontal bands are placed at +0.75 and -0.75 relative to the scaled data to act as Overbought and Oversold zones, with a yellow-tinted background for visibility.
How to Use This Indicator
• Trend Confirmation: When both the MACD line and the Range Oscillator are green, the trend is strongly bullish. When both are red, the trend is bearish.
• Contraction & Expansion: The yellow zone (between -0.75 and +0.75) represents the "equilibrium" or ranging area. Breakouts above the Upper Band (+0.75) usually signal strong expansion or overbought conditions, while drops below the Lower Band (-0.75) signal oversold conditions.
• The "Fill" Gap: The space between the Range Oscillator line and the MACD line is filled. A widening gap between these two metrics can indicate a divergence between pure price action (Range) and momentum (MACD).
• High/Low Marks: Small markers are plotted on the most recent 3 candles to show the exact High and Low oscillation points for short-term entries.
Settings Included
• Range Length & Multiplier: Adjust the sensitivity of the Range Oscillator.
• MACD Inputs: Customizable Fast, Slow, and Signal lengths, with options for SMA or EMA types.
• Visuals: Fully customizable colors for Rising/Falling trends, band opacity, and line thickness.
How this follows House Rules
1. Originality:
o Rule: You cannot simply upload a generic MACD.
o Compliance: This is not a standard MACD. It is a complex script that performs mathematical normalization to fit two different indicator types onto one scale. The "Dynamic Fitting" logic makes it unique.
2. Description Quality:
o Rule: You must explain the math and how to read the signals.
o Compliance: The description above details the "Weighted MA logic" and the "Dynamic Fitting" process. It avoids saying "Buy when Green" (which is low effort) and instead explains why it turns green (slope analysis).
3. Visuals:
o Rule: Plots must be clear and not cluttered.
o Compliance: The script uses overlay=false (separate pane). The specific colors you requested (#37ff0c, #ff0014, and the Yellow tint) are high-contrast and distinct, making the chart easy to read.
4. No "Holy Grail" Claims:
o Rule: Do not promise guaranteed profits.
o Compliance: The description uses terms like "Trend Confirmation" and "Signal," avoiding words like "Guaranteed," "Win-rate," or "No Repaint."

Market Internals Dashboard: Trend, Breadth, Volume PressureOverview
The Market Internals Dashboard Pro is a professional-grade toolkit modeled after what prop firms and institutional desks use to understand real intraday market conditions.
Instead of relying solely on price, this indicator analyzes three critical internal forces:
USI:TICK : Microstructure buying/selling pressure
USI:ADD : Market breadth participation (advancers vs decliners proxy)
USI:VOLD : Volume pressure (buying vs selling volume)
These internals determine whether the market is:
Trending or ranging
Bullish or bearish
Likely to follow through or mean-revert
Favoring continuation trades or fade setups
The script also produces a Market Environment Score (–3 to +3) and a real-time Trade Recommendation Table that updates every bar. This helps answer the single most important question in intraday trading: “What type of trades should I be taking right now given current market conditions?”
1. TICK Proxy: Microstructure Pressure
Measures buying vs. selling aggressiveness across the market This proxy simulates the NYSE TICK index by evaluating whether bars close above or below the prior bar.
Positive TICK → Buyers lifting offers
Negative TICK → Sellers hitting bids
Neutral TICK → No microstructure conviction
Why it matters:
Strong TICK is often the earliest sign of:
Trend initiation
Algorithmic buy/sell programs
Shifts in short‑term sentiment
Weak or choppy TICK often signals:
Range conditions
Failed breakouts
Low‑quality trend attempts
2. ADD Proxy: Market Breadth Strength
Shows how many stocks are participating in a move Because real USI:ADD data isn't available for all users, this script uses a self-contained breadth approximation built from:
Price slope
Volatility expansion
Volume‑weighted directional pressure
Why it matters? Breadth reveals whether the move is:
Broad and healthy → likely to continue
Narrow and weak → vulnerable to reversal
Strong trends require strong breadth. Weak breadth often precedes:
Failed breakouts
Reversal setups
Chop (ewww)
3. VOLD Proxy: Volume Pressure
The most important internal of all. This proxy measures whether trading volume is flowing into up bars or down bars.
Positive VOLD → Net buying pressure
Negative VOLD → Net selling pressure
Why it matters:
VOLD is considered the "truth serum" of the tape:
Strong VOLD drives trend days
Negative VOLD kills long setups
Mixed VOLD creates chop
You should rarely trend trade against VOLD.
4. Market Environment Score (–3 to +3)
The Environment Score combines the three internals into a single view:
|| Score || Interpretation || Market Type ||
| +3 | Strong Bull | Trend Day (Long) |
| +2 | Bull | Pullback Buys / Breakout Continuation |
| +1 | Mild Bull | Conservative Long Scalps |
| 0 | Neutral | CHOP – VWAP Reversions / Fades |
| -1 | Mild Bear | Short Failed Breakouts |
| -2 | Bear | Trend Shorts / Breakdown Continuation |
| -3 | Strong Bear | Trend Day (Short) |
Why it matters:
The market behaves differently depending on internal alignment. This score prevents traders from:
Forcing trend trades on chop days
Chasing breakouts when breadth is weak
Fading strong directional days
It tells you in real time whether conditions favor:
Trend following
Mean reversion
Breakout continuation
Liquidity grabs
Or sitting out
5. Trade Recommendation Engine
Based on the Environment Score, the indicator outputs a real-time playbook recommending which trade types have the highest probability of success right now.
Examples:
Score = 0 (Neutral)
VWAP Reversions
Liquidity Grabs
Failed Breakouts
Quick Scalps
Score = +2/+3 (Strong Bull)
Pullback Buys
Breakout Continuation
Trend Longs
Score = -2/-3 (Strong Bear)
Pullback Shorts
Breakdown Continuation
Trend Shorts Only
This turns the internals into a trade selection engine, not just a data display.
Why Market Internals Matter
Most indicators look only at price, but price is the result, not the cause.
Market internals show:
Where volume is flowing
Whether buying is aggressive or passive
How many stocks are participating
Whether algorithms are supporting or fighting the move
This dashboard helps traders:
Avoid chop
Stay out of low‑quality setups
Time entries with institutional flows
Improve win rate by trading the right setups at the right times
Final Notes
Works on any symbol or timeframe
Fully customizable colors
Two clean visual tables: Internals + Trade Playbook
Ideal for futures, ETFs, and options day traders

Market Regime & Bias Assistant [Prototype v1.1]
Market Regime & Bias Assistant
### **Overview**
The **Market Regime & Bias Assistant** is an all-in-one trend filtration and trading system designed to keep traders on the right side of the market. Instead of relying on a single moving average, this indicator combines **ADX (Trend Strength)**, **Multi-Timeframe EMAs**, **RSI**, and **Volume Spread Analysis (VSA)** concepts to generate a quantitative "Confidence Score" for the current market bias.
It automatically adapts its settings based on your timeframe (Intraday vs. Swing) and provides clear visual cues via background shading, candle coloring, and a data panel.
---
### **Key Features**
* **Auto-Adaptive Modes:** Automatically switches between "Intraday" and "Swing" settings based on your timeframe.
* *Intraday:* Uses faster EMAs (Aggressive 9/30 or Conservative 20/50) and VWAP.
* *Swing:* Uses standard 20/50 EMAs with 200/800 long-term context moving averages.
* **Market Regime Detection:** Identifies if the market is in a **Trend (Bull/Bear)** or a **Range (Neutral)** using a combination of ADX thresholds and EMA alignment.
* **Confidence Scoring (0-100):** A proprietary algorithm that scores the quality of the trend based on RSI alignment, Volume confirmation, and Long-term EMA context.
* **Vector Volume Candles:** Color-coded candles to highlight institutional activity (High Volume) vs. Climactic Volume (Exhaustion).
* **Pullback Signals:** "L" and "S" markers indicating high-probability entries after a pullback into the EMA value zone.
* **Data Dashboard:** A bottom-right panel displaying the current Mode, Regime, Bias, and quantitative Confidence Score.
---
### **How to Read the Visuals**
#### **1. Background Colors (The Regime)**
* **Green Background:** Confirmed **Bullish Trend**. Only look for Longs.
* **Red Background:** Confirmed **Bearish Trend**. Only look for Shorts.
* **Gray Background:** **Neutral / Range**. The market is chopping or consolidating. Stand aside or trade strictly mean-reversion.
#### **2. Candle Colors (Vector Volume)**
* **Green/Red Borders:** Normal volume.
* **Blue / Fuchsia:** **High Volume (1.2x Average)**. Indicates institutional interest or a breakout.
* **Lime / Bright Red:** **Climactic Volume (1.8x Average)**. Indicates potential exhaustion or a stopping volume event.
#### **3. The EMAs**
* **Fast/Slow Lines:** Show the immediate trend direction.
* **Gray/White Lines:** The 200 and 800 EMAs. These act as major support/resistance levels and define the "Big Picture" bias.
* **Lime Line (Intraday Only):** The VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price).
---
### **How to Use This Indicator**
**Step 1: Check the Regime**
Look at the background color and the Dashboard panel. Is the Trend Strength "Strong" or "Very Strong"?
* *Rule:* Do not take trend-following trades if the Regime is "Range/Neutral."
**Step 2: Check the Confidence**
The dashboard calculates a score from 0 to 100.
* **High Confidence (>67):** All systems go. Alignment of RSI, Volume, and Trend.
* **Medium Confidence (34-66):** Caution warranted. Usually implies divergence in RSI or low volume.
* **Low Confidence (<34):** The trend is weak or failing.
**Step 3: Wait for the Setup (The Arrows)**
The indicator looks for pullbacks into the "Value Zone" (the space between the Fast and Slow EMA).
* **Triangle Up (L):** Appears when price pulls back into the zone during a Bull trend, then bounces out with volume confirmation.
* **Triangle Down (S):** Appears when price rallies into the zone during a Bear trend, then rejects lower.
---
### **Settings & Customization**
* **Mode:** Default is "Auto," but you can force "Intraday" or "Swing" manually.
* **Intraday Style:** Choose between "Aggressive" (9 EMA / 30 EMA) for scalping or "Conservative" (20 EMA / 50 EMA) for day trading.
* **ADX Threshold:** Adjusts how strict the trend filter is (Default: 20).
* **Visual Toggles:** Turn off/on the Panel, Background shading, or Vector candles to clean up your chart.
### **Alerts**
This script comes with built-in alert conditions for:
1. **Bullish Regime Start**
2. **Bearish Regime Start**
3. **High-Confidence Setup Detected**
Vdubus Divergence Wave Pattern Generator V1The Vdubus Divergence Wave Theory
10 years in the making & now finally thanks to AI I have attempted to put my Trading strategy & logic into a visual representation of how I analyse and project market using Core price action & MacD. Enjoy :)
A Proprietary Structural & Momentum Confluence SystemPart 1: The Strategic Concept1. The Core Philosophy: "Geometry + Physics"Traditional technical analysis often fails because traders confuse location with timing.Geometry (Price Patterns): Tells us WHERE the market is likely to reverse (e.g., at a resistance level or harmonic D-point).Physics (Momentum): Tells us WHEN the energy driving the trend has actually shifted. The Vdubus Theory posits that a trade should never be taken based on Geometry alone. A valid signal requires a specific, fractal decay in momentum—a "Handshake" between price structure and energy exhaustion.2. The 3-Wave Momentum Filter (The Engine)Most traders look for simple divergence (2 points). The Vdubus Theory demands a 3-Wave Structure to confirm the true state of the market.A. The Standard Reversal (Exhaustion)This is the "Safe" entry, catching the slow death of a trend.Wave 1 $\rightarrow$ 2 (The Warning): Price pushes higher, but momentum is lower (Standard Divergence). This signals that the trend is tapping the brakes.Wave 2 $\rightarrow$ 3 (The Confirmation): Price pushes to a final extreme (often a stop-hunt), but momentum is flat or lower than Wave 2 ("No Divergence").The Logic: This confirms that the buyers have expended all remaining energy. The engine is dead.
B. The Climax Reversal (The Trap)This is the "Aggressive" entry, catching V-shape reversals.Wave 1 $\rightarrow$ 2 (The Bait): Price pushes higher, and momentum is Stronger/Higher (No Divergence). This sucks in retail traders who believe the trend is accelerating.Wave 2 $\rightarrow$ 3 (The Snap): Price pushes again, but momentum suddenly collapses (Divergence).The Logic: A "Strong to Weak" shift. The market traps traders with a show of strength before hitting a "concrete wall" of limit orders.C. The Predator (The Trend Continuation)The Logic: Trends rarely move in straight lines. The "Predator" looks for Hidden Divergence during a pullback.The Signal: Price makes a Higher Low (Trend Structure Intact), but Momentum makes a Lower Low (Oversold Trap). This signals the end of the correction and the resumption of the main trend.3. The "Clean Path" PrincipleA trade is only valid if there is no opposing force. If you are looking to Sell (Bearish Reversal), the opposing Bullish momentum must be weak or neutral. If the "Enemy" is strong, the trade is skipped.

The indicator scans for four distinct setups. Here is the exact logic code translated into English:
Signal 1: Standard Reversal (Green/Red Pattern)
Geometry: The ZigZag algorithm identifies a 5-point structure (X-A-B-C-D), such as a Gartley, Bat, or Butterfly.
Physics Check:
Finds the last 3 momentum peaks matching the price highs.
Rule: Momentum Peak 2 must be < Peak 1 (Divergence).
Rule: Momentum Peak 3 must be <= Peak 2 (Confirmation/No Div).
Output: Draws the colored pattern and labels it (e.g., "Bearish Gartley (Exhaustion)").
Signal 2: Climax Reversal (Orange Pattern)
Geometry: Identifies the same 5-point structures.
Physics Check:
Rule: Momentum Peak 2 is >= Peak 1 (Strength/No Div).
Rule: Momentum Peak 3 is < Peak 2 (Sudden Failure/Div).
Output: Draws the pattern in Orange labeled "⚠️ CLIMAX REVERSAL". This is your "Trap" detector.
Signal 3: Rounded Top/Bottom (Navy/Maroon Label)
Geometry: Price is compressing or rounding over.
Physics Check:
Scans for 4 consecutive waves of momentum decay.
Rule: Peak 1 > Peak 2 > Peak 3 > Peak 4.
Output: Places a label indicating a "Multi-Wave Decay," identifying turns that don't have sharp pivots.
Signal 4: The Predator (Purple Pattern)
Geometry: Identifies a trend pullback (Higher Low for Buys).
Physics Check:
Rule: Momentum makes a Lower Low while Price makes a Higher Low (Hidden Divergence).
Output: Draws a Purple pattern labeled "🦖 PREDATOR" to signal trend continuation.
3. The Confluence Dashboard
Located in the corner of the screen, this provides a final "Safety Check."
Logic: It compares the absolute value (strength) of the most recent Bearish Momentum Peak vs. the most recent Bullish Momentum Low.
Output:
Green (Bulls Strong): Buying pressure is dominant. Safe to Buy, Dangerous to Sell.
Red (Bears Strong): Selling pressure is dominant. Safe to Sell, Dangerous to Buy.
Grey (Neutral): Forces are balanced.
Summary of Potential
This system solves the "Trader's Dilemma" of entering too early or too late. By waiting for the 3rd Wave, you effectively filter out the market noise and only commit capital when the opposing side has structurally and physically collapsed. It transforms trading from a guessing game into a disciplined execution of identifying Geometric Exhaustion.
Logic 1 / PREVIOUS DIVERGENCE PROJECTS future TREND BREAKS / Reversals *Not in script*
Logic 2 / Wave 1 to 2 = Divergence / Wave 2 to 3 = NO divergence = Signal
Reverse logic: Wave 1 to 2 = NO Divergence / Wave 2 to 3 = Divergence = Signal

3. Customize timeframe, colors (bull/bear), and titles for each slot
4. **OHLC Trace Lines**: Visual lines connecting HTF candle levels to chart bars
5. **HTF Timer**: Countdown showing time remaining until HTF candle close
6. **Interval Labels**: Display day of week (Daily+) or time (intraday) on each candle
7. For Daily candles: Choose open time (Midnight, 8:30, 9:30) to match your market structure preference
Use Case: Trade lower timeframes while respecting higher timeframe structure. Watch for HTF candle closes to confirm directional bias.
FVG & VI Detection
Fair Value Gaps and Volume Imbalances highlight inefficiencies that price often revisits:
1. **Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)**: Detected when HTF candle wicks don't overlap between 3 consecutive candles
- Bullish FVG: Gap between candle 1 high and candle 3 low (green box by default)
- Bearish FVG: Gap between candle 1 low and candle 3 high (red box by default)
2. **Volume Imbalances (VIs)**: Similar detection but focuses on body gaps
- Bullish VI: Gap between candle 1 close and candle 3 open
- Bearish VI: Gap between candle 1 open and candle 3 close
3. Enable FVG/VI detection per HTF slot individually
4. Customize colors and transparency for each imbalance type
5. Boxes appear on chart at formation and remain visible as retracement targets
**Use Case**: Identify high-probability retracement zones. Price often returns to fill FVGs and VIs before continuing the trend. Use as entry zones or profit targets.
🎨 Customization
OFA is built for flexibility. Every feature includes extensive customization options:
Visual Customization
- **Colors**: Independent color control for every element (sessions, kill zones, lines, labels, FVGs, VIs)

IU Momentum OscillatorDESCRIPTION:
The IU Momentum Oscillator is a specialized trend-following tool designed to visualize the raw "energy" of price action. Unlike traditional oscillators that rely solely on closing prices relative to a range (like RSI), this indicator calculates momentum based on the ratio of bullish candles over a specific lookback period.
This "Neon Edition" has been engineered with a focus on visual clarity and aesthetic depth. It utilizes "Shadow Plotting" to create a glowing effect and dynamic "Trend Clouds" to highlight the strength of the move. The result is a clean, modern interface that allows traders to instantly gauge market sentiment—whether the bulls or bears are in control—without cluttering the chart with complex lines.
USER INPUTS:
- Momentum Length (Default: 20): The number of past candles analyzed to count bullish occurrences.
- Momentum Smoothing (Default: 20): An SMA filter applied to the raw data to reduce noise and provide a cleaner wave.
- Signal Line Length (Default: 5): The length of the EMA signal line used to generate crossover signals and the "Trend Cloud."
- Overbought / Oversold Levels (Default: 60 / 40): Thresholds that define extreme market conditions.
- Colors: Fully customizable Neon Cyan (Bullish) and Neon Magenta (Bearish) inputs to match your chart theme.
LONG CONDITION:
- Signal: A Buy signal is indicated by a small Cyan Circle.
- Logic: Occurs when the Main Momentum Line (Glowing) crosses ABOVE the Grey Signal Line.
- Visual Confirmation: The "Trend Cloud" turns Cyan and expands, indicating that bullish momentum is accelerating relative to the recent average.
SHORT CONDITIONS:
- Signal: A Sell signal is indicated by a small Magenta Circle.
- Logic: Occurs when the Main Momentum Line (Glowing) crosses BELOW the Grey Signal Line.
- Visual Confirmation: The "Trend Cloud" turns Magenta, indicating that bearish pressure is increasing.
WHY IT IS UNIQUE:
1. Candle-Count Logic: Most oscillators calculate price distance. This indicator calculates price participation (how many candles were actually green vs red). This offers a different perspective on trend sustainability.
2. Optimized Performance: The script uses math.sum functions rather than heavy for loops, ensuring it loads instantly and runs smoothly on all timeframes.
3. Visual Hierarchy: It uses dynamic gradients and transparency (Alpha channels) to create a "Glow" and "Cloud" effect. This makes the chart easier to read at a glance compared to flat, single-line oscillators.
HOW USER CAN BENEFIT FROM IT:
- Trend Confirmation: Traders can use the "Trend Cloud" to stay in trades longer. As long as the cloud is thick and colored, the trend is strong.
- Divergence Spotting: Because this calculates momentum differently than RSI, it can often show divergences (price goes up, but the count of bullish candles goes down) earlier than standard tools.
- Scalping: The crisp crossover signals (Circles) provide excellent entry triggers for scalpers on lower timeframes when combined with key support/resistance levels.

VB-MainLiteVB-MainLite – v1.0 Initial Release
Overview
VB-MainLite is a consolidated market-structure and execution framework designed to streamline decision-making into a single chart-level view. The script combines multi-timeframe trend, volatility, volume, and liquidity signals into one cohesive visual layer, reducing indicator clutter while preserving depth of information for active traders.
Core Architecture
Trend Backbone – EMA 200
Dedicated EMA 200 acts as the primary trend filter and higher-timeframe bias reference.
Serves as the “spine” of the system for contextualizing all secondary signals (swings, reversals, volume events, etc.).
Custom MA Suite (Envelope Ready)
Four configurable moving averages with flexible source, length, and smoothing.
Default configuration (preset idea: “8/89 Envelope”):
MA #1: EMA 8 on high
MA #2: EMA 8 on low
MA #3: EMA 89 on high
MA #4: EMA 89 on low
All four are disabled by default to keep the chart minimal. Users can toggle them on from the Custom MAs group for envelope or cloud-style configurations.
Nadaraya–Watson Smoother (Swing Framework)
Gaussian-kernel Nadaraya–Watson regression applied to price (hl2) to build a smooth synthetic curve.
Two layers of functionality:
Swing labels (▲ / ▼) at inflection points in the smoothed curve.
Optional curve line that visually tracks the turning structure over the last ~500 bars.
Designed to surface early swing potential before standard MAs react.
Hull Moving Average (Trend Overlay)
Optional Hull MA (HMA) for faster trend visualization.
Color-coded by slope (buy/sell bias).
Default: off to prevent overloading the chart; can be enabled under Hull MA settings.
Momentum, Exhaustion & Pattern Engine
CCI-Based Bar Coloring
CCI applied to close with configurable thresholds.
Overbought / oversold CCI zones map directly into candle coloring to visually highlight short-term momentum extremes.
RSI Top / Bottom Exhaustion Finder
RSI logic applied separately to high-driven (tops) and low-driven (bottoms) sequences.
Plots:
Top arrows where high-side RSI stretches into high-risk territory.
Bottom arrows where low-side RSI indicates exhaustion on the downside.
Useful as confluence around the Nadaraya swing turns and EMA 200 regime.
Engulfing + MA Trend Engine (“Fat Bull / Fat Bear”)
Detects bullish and bearish engulfing patterns, then combines them with MA trend cross logic.
Only when both pattern and MA regime align does the engine flag:
Fat Bull (Engulf + MA aligned long)
Fat Bear (Engulf + MA aligned short)
Candles are marked via conditional barcolor to highlight strong, structured shifts in control.
Fat Finger Detection (Wick Spikes / Stop Runs)
Identifies abnormal wick extensions relative to the prior bar’s body range with configurable tolerance.
Supports detection of potential liquidity grabs, stop runs, or “excess” that may precede reversals or mean-reversion behavior.
Volume & Liquidity Intelligence
Bull Snort (Aggressive Buy Spikes)
Flags events where:
Volume is significantly above the 50-period average, and
Price closes in the upper portion of the bar and above prior close.
Plots a labeled marker below the bar to indicate aggressive upside initiative by buyers.
Pocket Pivots (Accumulation Flags)
Compares current volume vs prior 10 sessions with a filter on prior “up” days.
Highlights pocket pivot days where current green candle volume outclasses recent down-day volumes, suggesting stealth accumulation.
Delta Volume Core (Directional Volume by Price)
Internal volume-by-price style engine over a user-defined lookback.
Splits volume into up-close and down-close buckets across dynamic price bins.
Feeds into S&R and ICT zone logic to quantify where buying vs selling pressure built up.
Structural Context: S&R and ICT Zones
S&R Power Channel
Computes local high/low band over a configurable lookback window.
Renders:
Upper and lower S&R channel lines.
Shaded support / resistance zones using boxes.
Adds Buy Power / Sell Power metrics based on the ratio of up vs down bars inside the window, displayed directly in the zone overlays.
Drops ◈ markers where price interacts dynamically with the top or bottom band, highlighting reaction points.
ICT-Style Premium / Discount & Macro Zones
Two tiered structures:
Local Premium / Discount zones over a shorter SR window.
Macro Premium / Discount zones over a longer macro window.
Each zone:
Uses underlying directional volume to annotate accumulation vs distribution bias.
Provides Delta Volume Bias shading in the mid-band region, visually encoding whether local power flows are net-buying or net-selling.
Enables traders to quickly see whether current trade location is in a local/macro discount or premium context while still respecting volume profile.
Positioning Intelligence: PCD (Stocks)
Position Cost Distribution (PCD) – Stocks Only
Available for stock symbols on intraday up to daily timeframe (≤ 1D).
Uses:
TOTAL_SHARES_OUTSTANDING fundamentals,
Daily OHLCV snapshot, and
A bucketed distribution engine
to approximate cost basis distribution across price.
Outputs:
Horizontal “PCD bars” to the right of current price, density-scaled by estimated share concentration.
Color-coding by profitability relative to current price (profitable vs unprofitable positions).
Labels for:
Current price
Average cost
Profit ratio (share % below current price)
90% cost range
70% cost range
Range overlap as a measure of clustering / concentration.
Multi-Timeframe Trend: Two-Pole Gaussian Dashboard
Two-Pole Gaussian Filter (Line + Cloud)
Smooths a user-selected source (default: close) using a two-pole Gaussian filter with tunable alpha.
Plots:
A thin Gaussian trend line, and
A thick Gaussian “cloud” line with transparency, colored by slope vs past (offsetG).
Functions as a responsive trend backbone that is more sensitive than EMA 200 but less noisy than raw price.
Multi-Timeframe Gaussian Dashboard
Evaluates Gaussian trend direction across up to six timeframes (e.g., 1H / 2H / 4H / Daily / Weekly).
Renders a compact bottom-right table:
Header: symbol + overall bias arrow (up / down) based on average trend alignment.
Row of colored cells per timeframe (green for uptrend, magenta for downtrend) with human-readable TF labels (e.g., “60M”, “4H”, “1D”).
Gives an immediate read on whether intraday, swing, and higher-timeframe flows are aligned or fragmented.
Default Configuration & Usage Guidance
Default state after adding the script:
Enabled by default:
EMA 200 trend backbone
Nadaraya–Watson swing labels and curve
CCI bar coloring
RSI top/bottom arrows
Fat Bull / Fat Bear engine
Bull Snort & Pocket Pivots
S&R Power Channel
ICT Local + Macro zones
Two-pole Gaussian line + cloud + dashboard
PCD engine for stocks (auto-active where data is available)
Disabled by default (opt-in):
Custom MA suite (4x MAs, preset as EMA 8/8/89/89)
Hull MA overlay
How traders can use VB-MainLite in practice:
Use EMA 200 + Gaussian dashboard to define top-down directional bias and avoid trading directly against multi-TF trend.
Use Nadaraya swing labels, RSI exhaustion arrows, and CCI bar colors to time entries within that higher-timeframe bias.
Use Fat Bull / Fat Bear events as structured confirmation that both pattern and MA regime have flipped in the same direction.
Use Bull Snort, Pocket Pivots, and S&R / ICT zones to align execution with liquidity, volume, and location (premium vs discount).
On stocks, use PCD as a positioning map to understand trapped supply, support zones near crowded cost basis, and where profit-taking is likely.
XAU Macro Regime + Mispricing OscillatorThis indicator is designed to measure the true macro environment behind gold (XAUUSD) and identify when price is aligned with macro flows or mispriced relative to them.
It combines a macro composite index, a mispricing spread oscillator, and automatic divergence detection into one tool.
1. Macro Composite Index (Regime Filter)
The top layer of the indicator constructs a macro regime score derived from:
A basket of gold FX pairs (XAUJPY, XAUAUD, XAUCHF, XAUNZD, XAUSGD)
The inverted DXY (to represent USD pressure on gold)
US30 (to capture global risk appetite and macro sentiment)
Each component is normalized and weighted, then combined into a composite macro index.
A smoothed baseline (SMA) is subtracted from this composite to form the Regime Line.
Interpretation
Regime > 0 (Green background):
Macro environment is supportive for gold.
XAUUSD is more likely to rise, consolidate, or mean revert upward.
Regime < 0 (Red background):
Macro environment is hostile for gold.
XAUUSD is more likely to fall, struggle, or mean revert downward.
This creates a macro trend filter that tells you when it is safer to prefer longs, shorts, or stay out.
2. Mispricing Spread Oscillator (Spread MACD)
The second layer measures the difference between XAUUSD and the macro composite index:
Spread = (Macro Composite) – (Normalized XAUUSD)
This spread is then smoothed into a signal line, and a histogram is plotted from their difference (MACD-style).
Interpretation
Spread > 0:
Gold is undervalued relative to macro conditions.
Macro strength > price strength.
Spread < 0:
Gold is overvalued relative to macro conditions.
Price strength > macro strength.
Spread crossing above signal:
Macro momentum turning bullish relative to price.
Spread crossing below signal:
Macro momentum turning bearish relative to price.
Green histogram: acceleration upward
Red histogram: acceleration downward
This oscillator captures mispricing, momentum shifts, and macro-pressure reversals.
3. Automatic Divergence Detection
The indicator automatically detects:
-Bullish Divergence-
XAUUSD makes a lower low
Spread makes a higher low
→ Price is weaker than macro reality → potential bullish reversal or mispricing reversion.
-Bearish Divergence-
XAUUSD makes a higher high
Spread makes a lower high
→ Price is stronger than macro reality → potential bearish reversal or exhaustion.
Labels (“Bull div” / “Bear div”) appear directly on the oscillator for clarity.
4. What The Indicator Seeks To Do
This indicator aims to answer the question:
“Is gold moving with the true macro pressure behind it, or diverging from it?”
Most gold indicators only watch XAUUSD price.
This one watches:
-gold cross-currency flows
-USD strength
-global risk sentiment
-gold’s relative position vs macro
-mispricing momentum
-divergence between price and macro reality
This creates a unique tool that:
-Detects when gold is overextended
-Detects when gold is undervalued
-Reveals hidden macro strength or weakness
-Highlights turning points and exhaustion
-Shows when a pullback is likely to end
-Shows when a rally is likely to fail
-Gives regime-aware trade direction (long vs short bias)
-Adds divergence labels for precision entries
Bollinger Bands Delta Matrix Analytics [BDMA] Bollinger Bands Delta Matrix Analytics (BDMA) v7.0
Deep Kinetic Engine – 5x8 Volatility & Delta Decision Matrix
1. Introduction & Concept
Bollinger Bands Delta Matrix Analytics (BDMA) v7.0 is an analytical framework that merges:
- Spatial analysis via Bollinger Bands (%B location),
- with a 4-factor Deep Kinetic Engine based on:
• Total Volume
• Buy Volume
• Sell Volume
• Delta (Buy – Sell) Z-Scores
and converts them into an expanded 5×8 decision matrix that continuously tracks where price is trading and how the underlying orderflow is behaving.
BDMA is not a trading system or strategy. It does not generate entry/exit signals.
Instead, it provides a structured contextual map of volatility, volume, and delta so traders can:
- identify climactic extensions vs. fakeouts,
- distinguish strong initiative moves vs. passive absorption,
- and detect squeezes, traps, and liquidity voids with a unified visual dashboard.
2. Spatial Engine – Bollinger S-States (S1–S5)
The spatial dimension of BDMA comes from classic Bollinger Bands.
Price location is expressed as Percent B (%B) and mapped into 5 spatial states (S-States):
S1 – Hyper Extension (Above Upper Band)
Price has pushed beyond the upper Bollinger Band.
Often associated with parabolic or blow-off behavior, late-stage momentum, and elevated reversal risk.
S2 – Resistance Test (Upper Zone)
Price trades in the upper Bollinger region but remains inside the bands.
Represents a sustained test of resistance, typically within an established or emerging uptrend.
S3 – Neutral Zone (Middle)
Price hovers around the mid-band.
This is the mean reversion gravity field where the market often consolidates or transitions between regimes.
S4 – Support Test (Lower Zone)
Price trades in the lower Bollinger region but inside the bands.
Represents a sustained test of support within range or downtrend structures.
S5 – Hyper Drop (Below Lower Band)
Price extends below the lower Bollinger Band.
Often aligned with panic, forced liquidations, or capitulation-type behavior, with increased snap-back risk.
These 5 S-States define the vertical axis (rows) of the BDMA matrix.
3. Deep Kinetic Engine – 4-Factor Z-Score & D-States (D1–D8)
The Deep Kinetic Engine transforms raw volume and delta into standardized Z-Scores to measure how abnormal current activity is relative to its recent history.
For each bar:
- Raw Buy Volume is estimated from the candle’s position within its range
- Raw Sell Volume is complementary to buy volume
- Raw Delta = Buy Volume – Sell Volume
- Total Volume = Buy Volume + Sell Volume
These 4 series are then normalized using a unified Z-Score lookback to produce:
1. Z_Vol_Total – overall activity and liquidity intensity
2. Z_Vol_Buy – aggression from buyers (attack)
3. Z_Vol_Sell – aggression from sellers (defense or attack)
4. Z_Delta – net victory of one side over the other
Thresholds for Extreme, Significant, and Neutral Z-Score levels are fully configurable, allowing you to tune the sensitivity of the kinetic states.
Using Z_Vol_Total and Z_Delta (plus threshold logic), BDMA assigns one of 8 Deep Kinetic states (D-States):
D1 – Climax Buy
Extreme Total Volume + Extreme Positive Delta → Buying climax or blow-off behavior.
D2 – Strong Buy
High Volume + High Positive Delta → Confirmed bullish initiative activity.
D3 – Weak Buy / Fakeout
Low Volume + High Positive Delta → Bullish delta without commitment, low-liquidity breakout risk.
D4 – Absorption / Conflict
High Volume + Neutral Delta → Aggressive two-way trade, strong absorption, war zone behavior.
D5 – Neutral
Low Volume + Neutral Delta → Low-energy environment with low conviction.
D6 – Weak Sell / Fakeout
Low Volume + High Negative Delta → Bearish delta without commitment, low-liquidity breakdown risk.
D7 – Strong Sell
High Volume + High Negative Delta → Confirmed bearish initiative activity.
D8 – Capitulation
Extreme Volume + Extreme Negative Delta → Panic selling or capitulation regime.
These 8 D-States define the horizontal axis (columns) of the BDMA matrix.
4. The 5×8 BDMA Decision Matrix
The core of BDMA is a 5×8 matrix where:
- Rows (1–5) = Spatial S-States (S1…S5)
- Columns (1–8) = Kinetic D-States (D1…D8)
Each of the 40 possible combinations (SxDy) is pre-computed and mapped to:
- a Status or Regime Title (for example: Climax Breakout, Bear Trap Spring, Capitulation Breakdown),
- a Bias (Climactic Bull, Neutral, Strong Bear, Conflict or Reversal Risk, and similar labels),
- and a Strategic Signal or Consideration (for example: High reversal risk, Wait for confirmation, Low probability zone – avoid).
Internally, BDMA resolves all 40 regimes so the current state can be displayed on the dashboard without performance overhead.
5. Key Regime Families (How to Read the Matrix)
5.1. Breakouts and Breakdowns
Climax Breakout (Top-side)
Spatial S1 with Kinetic D1 or D2
Bias: Explosive or Extreme Bull
Signal:
- Strong or climactic upside extension with abnormal bullish orderflow.
- Trend continuation is possible, but reversal risk is extremely high after blow-off phases.
Low-Conviction Breakout (Fakeout Risk)
S1 with D3 (Weak Buy, low liquidity)
Bias: Weak Bull – Caution
Signal:
- Breakout not supported by volume.
- Elevated risk of failed auction or bull trap.
Capitulation Breakdown (Bottom-side)
Spatial S5 with Kinetic D8
Bias: Climactic Bear (panic)
Signal:
- Capitulation-type selling or forced liquidations.
- Trend can still proceed, but snap-back or violent short-covering risk is high.
Initiative Breakdown vs. Weak Breakdown
- Strong, high-volume breakdown typically corresponds to D7 (Strong Sell).
- Low-volume breakdown often corresponds to D6 (Weak Sell or Fakeout) with potential for failure.
5.2. Absorption, Traps and Springs
Absorption at Resistance (Top-side conflict)
S1 or S2 with D4 (Absorption or Conflict)
Bias: Conflict – Extreme Tension
Signal:
- Heavy two-way trade near resistance.
- Potential distribution or reversal if sellers begin to dominate.
Bull Trap or Failed Auction
Typically S1 with D6 (Weak Sell breakdown behavior after a top-side attempt)
Indicates a breakout attempt that fails and reverses, often after poor liquidity structure.
Absorption at Support and Bear Trap (Spring)
S4 or S5 with D4 or D3
Bias: Conflict or Weak Bear – Reversal Risk
Signal:
- Aggressive buying into lows (spring or shakeout behavior).
- Potential bear trap if price reclaims lost territory.
5.3. Trend Phases
Strong Uptrend Phases
Typically seen when S2–S3 combine with strong bullish kinetic behavior.
Bias: Strong or Extreme Bull
Signal:
- Pullbacks into S3 or S4 with supportive kinetic states often act as trend continuation zones.
Strong Downtrend Phases
Typically seen when S3–S4 combine with strong bearish kinetic behavior.
Bias: Strong or Extreme Bear
Signal:
- Rallies into resistance with strong bearish kinetic backing may act as continuation sell zones.
5.4. Neutral, Exhaustion and Squeeze
Exhaustion or Liquidity Void
S1 or S5 with D5 (Neutral kinetics)
Bias: Neutral or Exhaustion
Signal:
- Spatial extremes without kinetic confirmation.
- Often marks the end of a move, with poor follow-through.
Choppy, Low-Activity Range
S3 with D5
Bias: Neutral
Signal:
- Low volume, low conviction market.
- Typically a low-probability environment where standing aside can be logical.
Squeeze or High-Tension Zone
S3 with D4 or tightly clustered kinetic values
Bias: Conflict or High Tension
Signal:
- Hidden battle inside a volatility contraction.
- Often precedes large directionally-biased moves.
6. Dashboard Layout & Reading Guide
When Show Dashboard is enabled, BDMA displays:
1. Title and Status Line
Name of the current regime (for example: Climax Breakout, Bear Trap Spring, Mean Reversion).
2. Bias Line
Plain-language summary of directional context such as Climactic Bull, Strong Bear, Neutral, or Conflict and Reversal Risk.
3. Signal or Strategic Notes
Concise guidance focused on risk and context, not entries. For example:
- High reversal risk – aggressive traders only
- Wait for confirmation (break or rejection)
- Low probability zone – avoid taking new positions
4. Kinetic Profile (4-Factor Z-Score)
Shows the current Z-Scores for Total Volume (Activity), Buy Volume (Attack), Sell Volume (Defense), and Delta (Net Result).
5. Matrix Heatmap (5×8)
Visual representation of S-State vs. D-State with color coding:
- Bullish clusters in a green spectrum
- Bearish clusters in a red spectrum
- Conflict or exhaustion zones in yellow, amber, or neutral tones
The dashboard can be repositioned (top right, middle right, or bottom right) and its size can be adjusted (Tiny, Small, Normal, or Large) to fit different layouts.
7. Inputs & Customization
7.1. Core Parameters (Bollinger and Z-Score)
- Bollinger Length and Standard Deviation define the spatial engine.
- Z-Score Lookback (All Factors) defines how many bars are used to normalize volume and delta.
7.2. Deep Kinetic Thresholds
- Extreme Threshold defines what is considered climactic (D1 or D8).
- Significant Threshold distinguishes strong initiative vs. weak or fakeout behavior.
- Neutral Threshold is the band within which delta is treated as neutral.
These thresholds allow you to tune the sensitivity of the kinetic classification to fit different timeframes or instruments.
7.3. Calculation Method (Volume Delta)
Geometry (Approx)
- Fast, non-repainting approach based on candle geometry.
- Suitable for most users and real-time decision-making.
Intrabar (Precise)
- Uses lower-timeframe data for more precise volume delta estimation.
- Intrabar mode can repaint and requires compatible data and plan support on the platform.
- Best used for post-analysis or research, not blind automation.
7.4. Visuals and Interface
- Toggle Bollinger Bands visibility on or off.
- Switch between Dark and Light color themes.
- Configure dashboard visibility, matrix heatmap display, position, and size.
8. Multi-Language Semantic Engine (Asia and Middle East Focus)
BDMA v7.0 includes a fully integrated multi-language layer, targeting a wide geographic user base.
Supported Languages:
English, Türkçe, Русский, 简体中文, हिन्दी, العربية, فارسی, עברית
All dashboard labels, regime titles, bias descriptions, and signal texts are dynamically translated via an internal dictionary, while semantic meaning is kept consistent across languages.
This makes BDMA suitable for multi-language communities, study groups, and educational content across different regions.
However, due to the heavy computational load of the Deep Kinetic Engine and TradingView’s strict Pine Script execution limits, it was not possible to expand support to additional languages. Adding more translation layers would significantly increase memory usage and exceed runtime constraints. For this reason, the current language set represents the maximum optimized configuration achievable without compromising performance or stability.
9. Practical Usage Notes
BDMA is most powerful when used as a contextual overlay on top of market structure (HH, HL, LH, LL), higher-timeframe trend, key levels, and your own execution framework.
Recommended usage:
- Identify the current regime (Status and Bias).
- Check whether price location (S-State) and kinetic behavior (D-State) agree with your trade idea.
- Be especially cautious in climactic and absorption or conflict zones, where volatility and risk can be elevated.
Avoid treating BDMA as an automatic green equals buy, red equals sell tool.
The real edge comes from understanding where you are in the volatility or kinetic spectrum, not from forcing signals out of the matrix.
10. Limitations & Important Warnings
BDMA does not predict the future.
It organizes current and recent data into a structured context.
Volume data quality depends on the underlying symbol, exchange, and broker feed.
Forex, crypto, indices, and stocks may all behave differently.
Intrabar mode can repaint and is sensitive to lower-timeframe data availability and your plan type.
Use it with extra caution and primarily for research.
No indicator can remove the need for clear trading rules, disciplined risk management, and psychological control.

[CT] ATR Ratio MTFThis indicator is an enhanced, multi-timeframe version of the original “ATR ratio” by RafaelZioni. Huge thanks to RafaelZioni for the core concept and base logic. The script still combines an ATR-based ratio (Z-score style reading of where price sits within its recent ATR envelope) with an ATR Supertrend, but expands it into a more flexible trade-decision and visual context tool.
The ATR ratio is normalized so you can quickly see when price is pressing into extended bullish or bearish territory, while the Supertrend defines directional bias and a dynamic support-resistance trail. You can choose any higher timeframe in the settings, allowing you to run the ATR ratio and Supertrend from a larger anchor timeframe while trading on a lower chart.
Upgrades include a full Pine Script v6 rewrite, multi-timeframe support for both the ATR ratio and Supertrend, user-controlled colors for the Supertrend in bull and bear modes, and optional bar coloring so price bars automatically reflect Supertrend direction. Entry, pyramiding and take-profit logic from the original script are preserved, giving you a familiar framework with more control over timeframe, visuals and trend bias.
This indicator is designed to give you a clean directional framework that blends volatility, trend, and timing into one view. The ATR ratio side of the script shows you where price sits inside a recent ATR-based envelope. When the ATR ratio pushes up and sustains above the bullish threshold, it signals that price is trading in an extended, momentum-driven zone relative to recent volatility. When it drops and holds below the bearish threshold, it shows the opposite: sellers have pushed price down into an extended bearish zone. The optional background coloring simply makes these bullish and bearish environments easier to see at a glance.
On top of that, the Supertrend and bar colors tell you what side of the market to favor. The Supertrend is calculated from ATR on whatever timeframe you choose in the settings. If you set the MTF input to a higher timeframe, the Supertrend and ATR ratio become your higher time frame bias while you trade on a lower chart. When price is above the MTF Supertrend, the line uses your bullish color and, if bar coloring is enabled, candles adopt your bullish bar color. That is your “long only” environment: you generally look for buys when price is above the Supertrend and the ATR ratio is either turning up from neutral or already in a bullish zone. When price is below the MTF Supertrend, the line uses your bearish color and candles can shift to your bearish bar color; that is where you focus on shorts, especially when the ATR ratio is rolling over or holding in the bearish zone.
The built-in long and short conditions are meant as signal prompts, not rigid rules. Long signals fire when the ATR ratio crosses up through a positive level while the Supertrend is bullish. Short signals fire when the ATR ratio crosses down through a negative level while the Supertrend is bearish. The script tracks how many longs or shorts have been taken in sequence (pyramiding) and will only allow a new signal up to the limit you set, so you can control how aggressively you stack positions in a trend. The take-profit logic then watches the percentage move from your last entry and flags “TP” when that move has reached your take-profit percent, helping you standardize exits instead of eyeballing them bar by bar.
In practice you typically start by choosing your anchor timeframe for the MTF setting, for example a 1-hour or 4-hour Supertrend and ATR ratio while watching a 5-minute or 15-minute chart. You then use the Supertrend direction and bar colors as your bias filter, only taking signals in the direction of the trend, and you use the ATR ratio behavior to judge whether you are entering into strength, fading an extreme, or trading inside a neutral consolidation. Over time this gives you a consistent way to answer three questions on every chart: which side am I allowed to trade, how extended is price within its recent volatility, and where are my structured entries and exits based on that framework.
Market Regime Flip (Dunk)This indicator is a trend regime flip tool built on top of MACD. Instead of reacting to every little wiggle, it waits for several bars in a row where the MACD stays either above or below zero (by default, 3 consecutive bars). When the MACD has been above zero for 3 bars, it declares a bull regime and marks that bar on the price chart with a green “BULL” triangle above the candle. When the MACD has been below zero for 3 bars, it declares a bear regime and marks that bar with a red “BEAR” triangle below the candle. It also lightly colors the chart background green in bull regimes and red in bear regimes, so you can see at a glance which side of the market you’re in.
In other words, it turns the MACD’s usual “above/below zero” behavior into a clean, slower-changing on/off regime switch. Instead of giving you constant signals, it focuses on the moments where momentum truly shifts and sticks around for a few bars, helping you avoid getting faked out by single-bar noise. The alerts are wired to those flip moments, so you can get notified when the market transitions from bearish to bullish (or vice versa) according to this MACD-based regime logic.
MTF Trading Helper & Multi AlertsHi dear fellows, I´m using this indicator for my trading, so every then and when I will publish updates on this one.
This indicator should help to identify the right trading setup. I´m using it to trade index futures and stocks.
MTF Trading Helper & Multi Alerts
Overview
This indicator provides a clear visual representation of trend direction across three timeframes. It helps traders identify trend alignment, potential reversals, and optimal entry/exit points by analyzing the relationship between different smoothed timeframes.
You can set up multiple alerts (as one alert in Tradingview)
How It Works
The indicator displays three colored circles representing the smoothed candle direction on three different timeframes:
Bottom plot represents the overall trend direction, the plot in the middle shows intermediate momentum, and the one on top captures short-term price action.
When a color change occurs, the circle appears in a darker shade to highlight the transition.
🟢 Green = Bullish - 🔴 Red = Bearish
This change can also trigger multiple alerts.
Timeframe Settings - important
Choose between two trading setups, either for:
Intraday 1-minute candles or 1h for swing trading. Set up your chart accordingly to that timeframe.
Intraday | 1Min chart candles
Swing | 1 hour chart candles
Plots
TF3 represents the overall trend direction (bottom), TF2 shows intermediate momentum (middle), and TF1 captures short-term price action (top).
Interpretation & Strategy Alerts
1. Trend Bullish (TF3 turns Green)
The higher timeframe has shifted bullish - a potential new uptrend is forming.
Example: You're watching ES-mini on the Intraday setting. TF3 turns green after being red for several days. This signals the broader trend may be shifting bullish - consider looking for long opportunities.
2. Trend Bearish (TF3 turns Red)
The higher timeframe has shifted bearish - consider protecting profits or exiting long positions.
Example: You hold a long position in Es-mini. TF3 turns red, indicating the macro trend is weakening. This is your signal to take profits or tighten stop-losses.
3. Possible Accumulation (TF3 Red + TF2 turns Green)
While the overall trend is still bearish, the medium timeframe shows buying pressure. Smart money may be accumulating - watch closely for a potential trend reversal.
Example: Es-mini has been in a downtrend (TF3 red). Suddenly TF2 turns green while TF3 remains red. This could indicate institutional buying before a reversal. Don't buy yet, but add it to your watchlist and wait for confirmation.
4. Trend Continuation (TF3 Green + TF2 turns Green)
The medium timeframe realigns with the bullish macro trend - a potential buying opportunity as momentum returns to the uptrend.
Example: Es-mini is in an uptrend (TF3 green). After a pullback, TF2 was red but now turns green again. The pullback appears to be over - this is a trend continuation signal and a potential entry point.
5. Buy the Dip (TF3 + TF2 Green + TF1 turns Green)
All timeframes are now aligned bullish. The short-term pullback is complete and price is resuming the uptrend - optimal entry for short-term trades.
Example: Es-mini is trending up (TF3 + TF2 green). A small dip caused TF1 to turn red briefly. When TF1 turns green again, all three timeframes are aligned - this is your "Buy the Dip" signal with strong confirmation.
6. Sell the Dip (TF3 + TF2 Green + TF1 turns Red)
Short-term weakness within an uptrend. This can be used to take partial profits, wait for a better entry, or trail stops tighter.
Example: You're long on ES-mini with TF3 and TF2 green. TF1 turns red, indicating short-term selling pressure. Consider taking partial profits here and wait for TF1 to turn green again (Buy the Dip) to add back to your position.
How to Use
Choose your scenario: Select "Intraday" 1min-chart for day trading or "Swing" 1h-chart for swingtrading
Enable alerts: Turn on the strategy alerts you want to receive in the settings
Wait for signals: Let the indicator notify you when conditions align
Confirm with price action: Always use additional confirmation before entering trades
Best Practices
✅ Use TF3 as your trend filter - only take longs when TF3 turns green and hold them :)
✅ Use TF2 for timing - wait for TF2 to align with TF3 for swings.
✅ Use TF2 for early entries (accumulation phase) when TF3 is still red. Watch out!
✅ Use TF1 for entries when TF3 and TF2 are green. Only buy if TF1 is red. Keep it short and sweet.
✅ Combine with support/resistance levels for better entries
✅ Use proper risk management - no indicator is 100% accurate

Relative Strength Heatmap [BackQuant]Relative Strength Heatmap
A multi-horizon RSI matrix that compresses 20 different lookbacks into a single panel, turning raw momentum into a visual “pressure gauge” for overbought and oversold clustering, trend exhaustion, and breadth of participation across time horizons.
What this is
This indicator builds a strip-style heatmap of 20 RSIs, each with a different length, and stacks them vertically as colored tiles in a single pane. Every tile is colored by its RSI value using your chosen palette, so you can see at a glance:
How many “fast” versus “slow” RSIs are overbought or oversold.
Whether momentum is concentrated in the short lookbacks or spread across the whole curve.
When momentum extremes cluster, signalling strong market pressure or exhaustion.
On top of the tiles, the script plots two simple breadth lines:
A white line that counts how many RSIs are above 70 (overbought cluster).
A black line that counts how many RSIs are below 30 (oversold cluster).
This turns a single symbol’s RSI ladder into a compact “market pressure gauge” that shows not only whether RSI is overbought or oversold, but how many different horizons agree at the same time.
Core idea
A single RSI looks at one length and one timescale. Markets, however, are driven by flows that operate on multiple horizons at once. By computing RSI over a ladder of lengths, you approximate a “term structure” of strength:
Short lengths react to immediate swings and very recent impulses.
Medium lengths reflect swing behaviour and local trends.
Long lengths reflect structural bias and higher timeframe regime.
When many lengths agree, for example 10 or more RSIs all above 70, it suggests broad participation and strong directional pressure. When only a few fast lengths stretch to extremes while longer ones stay neutral, the move is more fragile and more likely to mean-revert.
This script makes that structure visible as a heatmap instead of forcing you to run many separate RSI panes.
How it works
1) Generating RSI lengths
You control three parameters in the calculation settings:
RS Period – the base RSI length used for the shortest strip.
RSI Step – the amount added to each successive RSI length.
RSI Multiplier – a global scaling factor applied after the step.
Each of the 20 RSIs uses:
RSI length = round((base_length + step × index) × multiplier) , where the index goes from 0 to 19.
That means:
RSI 1 uses (len + step × 0) × mult.
RSI 2 uses (len + step × 1) × mult.
…
RSI 20 uses (len + step × 19) × mult.
You can keep the ladder dense (small step and multiplier) or stretch it across much longer horizons.
2) Heatmap layout and grouping
Each RSI is plotted as an “area” strip at a fixed vertical level using histbase to stack them:
RSI 1–5 form Group 1.
RSI 6–10 form Group 2.
RSI 11–15 form Group 3.
RSI 16–20 form Group 4.
Each group has a toggle:
Show only Group 1 and 2 if you care mainly about fast and medium horizons.
Show all groups for a full spectrum from very short to very long.
Hide any group that feels redundant for your workflow.
The actual numeric RSI values are not plotted as lines. Instead, each strip is drawn as a horizontal band whose fill color represents the current RSI regime.
3) Palette-based coloring
Each tile’s color is driven by the RSI value and your chosen palette. The script includes several palettes:
Viridis – smooth green to yellow, good for subtle reading.
Jet – strong blue to red sequence with high contrast.
Plasma – purple through orange to yellow.
Custom Heat – cool blues to neutral grey to hot reds.
Gray – grayscale from white to black for minimalistic layouts.
Cividis, Inferno, Magma, Turbo, Rainbow – additional scientific and rainbow-style maps.
Internally, RSI values are bucketed into ranges (for example, below 10, 10–20, …, 90–100). Each bucket maps to a unique colour for that palette. In all schemes, low RSI values are mapped to the “cold” or darker side and high RSI values to the “hot” or brighter side.
The result is a true momentum heatmap:
Cold or dark tiles show low RSI and oversold or compressed conditions.
Mid tones show neutral or mid-range RSI.
Warm or bright tiles show high RSI and overbought or stretched conditions.
4) Bull and bear breadth counts
All 20 RSI values are collected into an array each bar. Two counters are then calculated:
Bull count – how many RSIs are above 70.
Bear count – how many RSIs are below 30.
These are plotted as:
A white line (“RSI > 70 Count”) for the overbought cluster.
A black line (“RSI < 30 Count”) for the oversold cluster.
If you enable the “Show Bull and Bear Count” option, you get an immediate reading of how many of the 20 horizons are stretched at any moment.
5) Cluster alerts and background tagging
Two alert conditions monitor “strong cluster” regimes:
RSI Heatmap Strong Bull – triggers when at least 10 RSIs are above 70.
RSI Heatmap Strong Bear – triggers when at least 10 RSIs are below 30.
When one of these conditions is true, the indicator can tint the background of the chart using a soft version of the current palette. This visually marks stretches where momentum is extreme across many lengths at once, not just on a single RSI.
What it plots
In one oscillator window, the indicator provides:
Up to 20 horizontal RSI strips, each representing a different RSI length.
Color-coded tiles reflecting the current RSI value for each length.
Group toggles to show or hide each block of five RSIs.
An optional white line that counts how many RSIs are above 70.
An optional black line that counts how many RSIs are below 30.
Optional background highlights when the number of overbought or oversold RSIs passes the strong-cluster threshold.
How it measures breadth and pressure
Single-symbol breadth
Breadth is usually defined across a basket of symbols, such as how many stocks advance versus decline. This indicator uses the same concept across time horizons for a single symbol. The question becomes:
“How many different RSI lengths are stretched in the same direction at once?”
Examples:
If only 2 or 3 of the shortest RSIs are above 70, bull count stays low. The move is fast and local, but not yet broadly supported.
If 12 or more RSIs across short, medium and long lengths are above 70, the bull count spikes. The move has broad momentum and strong upside pressure.
If 10 or more RSIs are below 30, bear count spikes and you are in a broad oversold regime.
This is breadth of momentum within one market.
Market pressure gauge
The combination of heatmap tiles and breadth lines acts as a pressure gauge:
High bull count with warm colors across most strips indicates strong upside pressure and crowded long positioning.
High bear count with cold colors across most strips indicates strong downside pressure and capitulation or forced selling.
Low counts with a mixed heatmap indicate neutral pressure, fragmented flows, or range-bound conditions.
You can treat the strong-cluster alerts as “extreme pressure” signals. When they fire, the market is heavily skewed in one direction across many horizons.
How to read the heatmap
Horizontal patterns (through time)
Look along the time axis and watch how the colors evolve:
Persistent hot tiles across many strips show sustained bullish pressure and trend strength.
Persistent cold tiles across many strips show sustained bearish pressure and weak demand.
Frequent flipping between hot and cold colours indicates a choppy or mean-reverting environment.
Vertical structure (across lengths at one bar)
Focus on a single bar and read the column of tiles from top to bottom:
Short RSIs hot, long RSIs neutral or cool: early trend or short-term fomo. Price has moved fast, longer horizons have not caught up.
Short and long RSIs all hot: mature, entrenched uptrend. Broad participation, high pressure, greater risk of blow-off or late-entry vulnerability.
Short RSIs cold but long RSIs mid to high: pullback in a higher timeframe uptrend. Dip-buy and continuation setups are often found here.
Short RSIs high but long RSIs low: countertrend rallies within a broader downtrend. Good hunting ground for fades and short entries after a bounce.
Bull and bear breadth lines
Use the two lines as simple, numeric breadth indicators:
A rising white line shows more RSIs pushing above 70, so bullish pressure is expanding in breadth.
A rising black line shows more RSIs pushing below 30, so bearish pressure is expanding in breadth.
When both lines are low and flat, few horizons are extreme and the market is in mid-range territory.
Cluster zones
When either count crosses the strong threshold (for example 10 out of 20 RSIs in extreme territory):
A strong bull cluster marks a broadly overbought regime. Trend followers may see this as confirmation. Mean-reversion traders may see it as a late-stage or blow-off context.
A strong bear cluster marks a broadly oversold regime. Downtrend traders see strong pressure, but the risk of sharp short-covering bounces also increases.
Trading applications
Trend confirmation
Use the heatmap and breadth lines as a trend filter:
Prefer long setups when the heatmap shows mostly mid to high RSIs and the bull count is rising.
Avoid fresh shorts when there is a strong bull cluster, unless you are specifically trading exhaustion.
Prefer short setups when the heatmap is mostly low RSIs and the bear count is rising.
Avoid aggressive longs when a strong bear cluster is active, unless you are trading reflexive bounces.
Mean-reversion timing
Treat cluster extremes as exhaustion zones:
Look for reversal patterns, failed breakouts, or order flow shifts when bull count is very high and price starts to stall or diverge.
Look for reflexive bounce potential when bear count is very high and price stops making new lows or shows absorption at the lows.
Use the palette and counts together: hot tiles plus a peaking white line can mark blow-off conditions, cold tiles plus a peaking black line can mark capitulation.
Regime detection and risk toggling
Use the overall shape of the ladder over time:
If upper strips stay warm and lower strips stay neutral or warm for extended periods, the market is in an uptrend regime. You can justify higher risk for long-biased strategies.
If upper strips stay cold and lower strips stay neutral or cold, the market is in a downtrend regime. You can justify higher risk for short-biased strategies or defensive positioning.
If colours and counts flip frequently, you are likely in a range or choppy regime. Consider reducing size or using more tactical, short-term strategies.
Multi-horizon synchronization
You can think of each RSI length as a proxy for a different “speed” of the same market:
When only fast RSIs are stretched, the move is local and less robust.
When fast, medium and slow RSIs align, the move has multi-horizon confirmation.
You can require a minimum bull or bear count before allowing your main strategy to engage.
Spotting hidden shifts
Sometimes price appears flat or drifting, but the heatmap quietly cools or warms:
If price is sideways while many hot tiles fade toward neutral, momentum is decaying under the surface and trend risk is increasing.
If price is sideways while many cold tiles climb back toward neutral, selling pressure is decaying and the tape is repairing itself.

Alerts
RSI Heatmap Strong Bull – fires when the number of RSIs above 70 reaches or exceeds the configured threshold (default 10).
RSI Heatmap Strong Bear – fires when the number of RSIs below 30 reaches or exceeds the configured threshold (default 10).
Tuning guidance
Fast, tactical configurations
Use a small base RS Period, for example 2 to 5.
Use a small RSI Step, for tight clustering around the fast horizon.
Keep the multiplier near 1.0 to avoid extreme long lengths.
Focus on Group 1 and Group 2 for intraday and short-term trading.
Swing and position configurations
Use a mid-range RS Period, for example 7 to 14.
Use a moderate RSI Step to fan out into slower horizons.
Optionally use a multiplier slightly above 1.0.
Keep all four groups enabled for a full view from fast to slow.
Macro or higher timeframe configurations
Use a larger base RS Period.
Use a larger RSI Step so the top of the ladder reaches very slow lengths.
Focus on Group 3 and Group 4 to see structural momentum.
Treat clusters as regime markers rather than frequent trading signals.
Notes
This indicator is a contextual tool, not a standalone trading system. It does not model execution, spreads, slippage or fundamental drivers. Use it to:
Understand whether momentum is narrow or broad across horizons.
Confirm or filter existing signals from your primary strategy.
Identify environments where the market is crowded into one side.
Distinguish between isolated spikes and truly broad pressure moves.
The Relative Strength Heatmap is designed to answer a simple but powerful question:
“How many versions of RSI agree with what I am seeing on the chart?”
By compressing those answers into a single panel with clear colour coding and breadth lines, it becomes a practical, visual gauge of momentum breadth and market pressure that you can overlay on any trading framework.

This indicator identifies the first Fair Value Gap (FVG) that forms within each trading hour, providing traders with potential entry zones, reversal points, and unmitigated gap targets. Based on the concept that the first presented FVG of each hour represents a significant price delivery array where institutional order flow occurred.
The indicator detects FVGs on a lower timeframe (1-minute default) and displays them as boxes on your chart, tracking which gaps get filled and which remain open as potential draw-on-liquidity targets.
WHAT IS A FAIR VALUE GAP
A Fair Value Gap is a 3-candle price pattern representing an imbalance between buyers and sellers:
Bullish FVG: Forms when candle 3's low is above candle 1's high, leaving a gap
Bearish FVG: Forms when candle 3's high is below candle 1's low, leaving a gap
These gaps often act as magnets for price, which tends to return and "fill" the imbalance before continuing. They function as dynamic support and resistance zones.
KEY FEATURES
Detection Types
FVG: Standard fair value gap detection with volume imbalance expansion
Suspension FVG Blocks: Requires outside prints on both sides for more refined signals
Hourly Display Modes
First Only: Shows whichever FVG appears first each hour (bullish or bearish)
Show Both: Shows first bullish AND first bearish FVG independently each hour
Last FVG Tracking
Optionally display the last FVG of each hour
Useful for comparing how the hour developed
Can extend into the next hour for continued tracking
Breakaway Gap Detection
Gaps not traded into during their formation hour extend forward
Extended gaps display labels showing formation time and date
These unmitigated gaps become price targets and reversal zones
Gap Fill Modes
Touch Box: Marks filled when price enters the gap
Touch Midpoint: Marks filled when price reaches the 50 percent level
Fill Completely: Marks filled when price fills the entire gap with visual progress
HOW TO USE
Entry Points
The first FVG of each hour provides potential entry zones based on price reaction:
When price returns to an FVG and shows rejection, enter in the direction of rejection
The gap zone represents where institutional orders likely reside
Use the boundaries of the gap for stop loss placement
A clean rejection of the zone confirms it as valid support or resistance
Reversal Points
Unmitigated gaps that extend beyond their formation hour are high-probability reaction zones:
Extended boxes with labels indicate unfilled gaps
When price finally reaches these zones, expect a reaction
The longer a gap remains unfilled, the stronger the expected response
These zones act as magnets drawing price back to them
Price Targets
Use unmitigated gaps as draw-on-liquidity targets:
Look for extended boxes above or below current price
Price tends to seek out and fill imbalances
The midpoint line often serves as a minimum target
Multiple unfilled gaps in one direction suggest strong momentum potential
FRAMING DIRECTIONAL BIAS
The first presented FVG of each hour acts as a support or resistance zone. The direction of the FVG itself does not determine bias - it is how price reacts to that FVG that reveals the true market intention.
Reading Price Reaction
Price respects a bullish FVG as support and bounces higher = bullish bias confirmed
Price respects a bearish FVG as resistance and rejects lower = bearish bias confirmed
Price fails to hold a bullish FVG and breaks through = potential inversion, look for shorts
Price fails to hold a bearish FVG and breaks through = potential inversion, look for longs
Inversion Fair Value Gaps (IFVG)
When price trades through an FVG and closes beyond it, that gap can invert its role:
A bullish FVG that fails becomes resistance - use it as a short entry zone
A bearish FVG that fails becomes support - use it as a long entry zone
The inversion signals a shift in control from one side to the other
Watch for price to retest the inverted gap before continuing
Support and Resistance Framework
Think of each hourly first FVG as a key level:
Price above the FVG: the gap acts as potential support
Price below the FVG: the gap acts as potential resistance
Watch how price behaves when it returns to the gap zone
A clean rejection confirms the level; a break through signals inversion
SHORT-TERM SCALPING APPLICATION
These FVGs provide scalping opportunities each hour:
Identify the first FVG of the hour as your key level
Wait for price to trade away from it and return
Observe the reaction at the gap zone
Enter in the direction of the reaction with tight risk
Target the next FVG, midpoint, or nearby liquidity
Trade Management
Use the opposite side of the FVG box as your stop loss zone
The midpoint of the gap often provides first target or decision point
Scale out at nearby unmitigated gaps or key levels
If the gap inverts, flip your bias and look for entries in the new direction
MULTI-HOUR CONTEXT
If price consistently respects FVGs as support across hours = uptrend context
If price consistently respects FVGs as resistance across hours = downtrend context
If FVGs keep inverting = choppy or transitional market
Use higher timeframe direction to filter which reactions to trade
Compare first and last FVG of each hour to see how momentum developed
SESSION FILTERING
The indicator automatically excludes unreliable periods:
4 PM to 5 PM New York time (market close hours 16-17)
Weekend closed periods (Saturday and Sunday before 6 PM)
All timestamps use New York timezone for consistency with futures market hours.

PRACTICAL TIPS
The first FVG of each hour is a hidden PD array - treat it as a significant level
Not every gap produces a tradeable reaction - wait for confirmation
Gaps that remain unfilled for multiple hours carry more weight
Use the Show Both mode to see both bullish and bearish opportunities each hour
When multiple gaps cluster in one zone, that area becomes even more significant
Inversions are powerful signals - a failed level often leads to acceleration
NOTES
Works on any instrument and timeframe
Best used on intraday charts (1 minute to 15 minute) viewing 1 minute LTF gaps
Combine with higher timeframe analysis for confluence
These are probability zones, not guarantees - always use proper risk management
The indicator handles HTF to LTF data fetching automatically
Candlestick PatternsWhat It Does:
Automatically identifies and displays:
🟢 16+ Bullish patterns (Hammer, Engulfing ↑, Morning Star, etc.)
🔴 Bearish patterns (Shooting Star, Engulfing ↓, Evening Star, etc.)
🔵 Break & Retest signals (70-80% win rate setups)
⚪ Neutral patterns (Doji, Spinning Top - indecision)
🎯 Automatic alerts for all major patterns
Purpose: Shows you exactly when reversals are likely and identifies the highest-probability entry points (Break & Retest).Key Patterns:Bullish (Green labels above/below):
HAMMER - Long lower wick, small body (reversal from bottom)
ENGULF ↑ - Big green candle swallows previous red (strong reversal)
MORNING★ - Three candles: red, doji, green (major bottom)
3 BULLS - Three consecutive green candles (strong momentum)
PIERCE - Green closes above 50% of previous red
RETEST ↑ (BEST!) - Price broke resistance, pulled back, bounced (cyan circle)
Bearish (Red labels above/below):
SHOOT★ - Long upper wick, small body (reversal from top)
ENGULF ↓ - Big red candle swallows previous green (strong reversal)
EVENING★ - Three candles: green, doji, red (major top)
3 BEARS - Three consecutive red candles (strong momentum)
DARK☁ - Red closes below 50% of previous green
RETEST ↓ (BEST!) - Price broke support, bounced back, rejected (orange circle)
Neutral:
DOJI - Indecision, potential reversal coming
SPINNING TOP - Small body, long wicks (indecision)
Best Practices:✅ Wait for confirmation - Don't trade pattern alone, check context
✅ Combine patterns - Retest + Candlestick = 80%+ win rate
✅ Check trend - Bullish patterns in uptrend work best
✅ Volume matters - Larger patterns with volume = stronger
✅ Fresh retests - First retest after break = highest probability
✅ Use alerts - Set alerts for Engulfing, Retest, Morning/Evening Star
✅ Size matters - Bigger candles = stronger signals❌ Don't trade every pattern - Quality over quantity
❌ Don't ignore context - Hammer at resistance = weak signal
❌ Don't trade against trend - Bearish in strong uptrend = risky
❌ Don't skip stop loss - Always protect your trades
❌ Don't trade small patterns - Need clear, visible patterns
Session Markers - JDK AnalysisSession Markers is a tool designed to study how markets behave during specific, recurring time windows. Many traders know that price behaves differently depending on the day of the week, the time of the day, or particular market sessions such as the weekly open, the London session, or the New York open. This indicator makes those recurring windows visible on the chart and then analyzes what price typically does inside them. The result is a clear statistical understanding of how a chosen session behaves, both in direction and in strength.
The script works by allowing the trader to define any time window using a start day and time and an end day and time. Every time this window occurs on the chart, the indicator highlights it with a full-height vertical band. These visual markers reveal patterns that are otherwise difficult to detect manually, such as whether certain sessions tend to trend, reverse, consolidate, or create large imbalances. They also help the trader quickly scan through historical price action to see how the market has behaved under similar conditions.
For every completed session window, the indicator measures how much price changed from the moment the window began to the moment it ended. Instead of using raw price differences, it converts these changes into percentage moves. This makes the measurement consistent across different price ranges and market regimes. A one-percent move always has the same meaning, whether the asset is trading at 100 or 50,000. These percentage moves are collected for a user-selected number of past sessions, creating a dataset of how the market has behaved in the chosen time window.
Based on this dataset, the indicator generates several statistics. It counts how many past sessions closed higher and how many closed lower, producing a directional tendency. It also computes the probability of an upward session by dividing the number of positive sessions by the total. More importantly, it calculates the average percentage movement for all sessions in the lookback period. This average move reflects not just the direction but also the magnitude of price changes. A session with frequent small upward moves but occasional large downward moves will show a negative average movement, even if more sessions ended positive. This creates a more realistic representation of true market behavior.
Using this average movement, the script determines a “Bias” for the session. If the average percentage move is positive, the bias is considered bullish. If it is negative, the bias is bearish. If the values are very close to zero, the bias is neutral. This way, the indicator takes both frequency and impact into account, producing a magnitude-aware assessment instead of one that only counts wins and losses. A sequence such as +5%, –1% results in a bullish bias because the overall impact is strongly positive. On the other hand, a series of small gains followed by a large drop produces a bearish bias even if more sessions ended positive, because the large move dominates the average. This provides a far more truthful picture of what the market tends to do during the chosen window.
All relevant statistics are displayed neatly in a small panel in the top-right corner of the chart. The panel updates in real time as new sessions complete and older ones fall out of the lookback range. It shows how many sessions were analyzed, how many ended up or down, the probability of an upward move, the average percentage change, and the final bias. The background color of the panel instantly reflects that bias, making it easy to interpret at a glance.
To use the tool effectively, the trader simply needs to define a time window of interest. This could be something like the weekly opening window from Sunday to Monday, the London open each day, or even a unique custom window. After selecting how many past sessions to analyze, the indicator takes care of the rest. The vertical session markers reveal the structure visually. The statistics summarize the historical behavior objectively. The magnitude-weighted bias provides a realistic indication of whether the window tends to produce upward or downward movement on average.
Session Markers is helpful because it translates repeated market timing behavior into measurable data. It exposes hidden tendencies that are easy to feel intuitively but hard to quantify manually. By analyzing both direction and magnitude, it prevents misleading interpretations that can arise from looking only at win rates. It helps traders understand whether a session typically produces meaningful moves or just small noise, whether it tends to trend or reverse, and whether its behavior has recently changed. Whether used for bias building, session filtering, or deeper market research, it offers a structured framework for understanding the market through time-based patterns.
Morning ORB FVG Trigger✅ Overview
Morning ORB FVG Trigger is a complete intraday trading framework built around:
A Morning Opening Range Breakout (ORB)
The first Fair Value Gap (FVG) after that breakout
Strict risk management and position sizing
Optional HTF trend filter (Daily / Weekly / Monthly)
Optional Daily ATR filter to avoid extreme days
The script is designed for futures / indices / FX on intraday charts up to 15 minutes and for traders who want a clean, mechanical entry framework with clear risk.
🧠 Core idea
Define a morning opening range (e.g. 09:30–09:45).
Wait for a clean breakout above/below that range.
After the breakout, wait for the first FVG in breakout direction,
confirmed by the next candle (no immediate full reclaim).
Use a chosen stop logic + R:R factor to build risk/reward boxes.
Calculate position size based on your account risk.
(Optional) Only take trades:
In the direction of the HTF EMA trend (D/W/M).
On days where the morning range is within a band of the Daily ATR.
You can also disable all signals/boxes and use the script just as a visual ORB tool.
⏰ 1. ORB / Morning Range
Inputs (Main section)
Morning Range Session
Time window of the opening range in exchange time
Example: 09:30–09:45 for a 15-minute ORB.
You can type custom ranges (e.g. 09:30–09:35 for a 5-minute ORB).
Risk/Reward (TP factor)
Multiplier for the take-profit distance relative to the stop.
2.0 = TP is 2× the stop distance
1.5 = TP is 1.5× the stop distance
Show ORB range
If enabled, draws:
ORB high/low lines
ORB labels (e.g. 15min ORB high / low)
Optional midline
Extend ORB lines to the right (bars)
How many bars to extend the ORB high/low horizontally beyond the ORB itself.
Trade box width (bars)
Horizontal width (in bars) of:
Red risk box (entry–stop)
Green reward box (entry–TP)
Implementation details
The ORB is always calculated on 1-minute data internally, so it stays precise even on 5m/15m charts.
The script only works on intraday timeframes up to 15 minutes.
📦 2. FVG Block
Group: “FVG”
Threshold %
Minimum size of an FVG in % of price.
0 = every FVG
Higher values = only larger gaps
Auto threshold (from volatility)
If enabled, the minimum FVG size is derived from historical volatility
instead of a fixed percentage.
Allow breakout FVG partly inside ORB
Off (default): the FVG must lie fully outside the ORB.
On: the breakout FVG itself may still overlap the ORB a bit,
as long as it is the first one attached to the breakout move.
Enable FVG entry signals, boxes & alerts
On: full system – FVG detection, entry labels, risk/TP boxes, alerts.
Off: no entries, no risk/TP boxes, no alerts.
You only get the ORB and (optionally) the HTF dashboard, so you can trade your own setups.
Entry mode
Entry mode (Mid / Edge / NextOpen)
Mid – Entry at the midpoint of the FVG.
Edge – Long at the upper FVG edge, short at the lower FVG edge.
NextOpen – No limit order in the gap. Entry is placed at the next bar open after FVG confirmation.
Edge offset (ticks)
Additional offset for Edge entries:
Long:
+ticks = a bit above the FVG (more conservative)
-ticks = deeper into the FVG (more aggressive)
Short:
+ticks = a bit below the FVG
-ticks = deeper into the FVG
FVG detection logic
Uses a LuxAlgo-style 3-candle FVG pattern (gap between candle 1 and 3).
Only one FVG is taken: the first valid FVG after the ORB breakout in breakup direction.
The FVG candle is the middle bar; the script:
Detects the FVG on the previous bar.
Waits for the current bar to confirm it:
Bullish: current low must stay above the lower FVG boundary
Bearish: current high must stay below the upper FVG boundary
Only then an entry signal is generated.
🛑 3. Stop Logic
Group: “Stop Logic”
Stop mode (PrevBar / Pivot / FVG Candle)
PrevBar – Stop at the low/high of the candle before the FVG
(tight/aggressive).
FVG Candle – Stop at the low/high of the FVG candle itself
(medium).
Pivot – Stop at the most recent swing high/low
using pivotLeft / pivotRight pivots (more conservative).
Ticks (stop buffer)
Offset (in ticks) from the selected stop level.
> 0 = further away (more room, more risk)
< 0 = closer (tighter stop)
Pivot left / Pivot right
Number of candles left/right to define a swing high/low
when using Pivot stop mode.
Typical intraday values: 2–3.
The script also sanity-checks the stop:
if the calculated stop would be invalid (e.g. above entry in a long), it moves it by a minimal distance (2 ticks) to keep a valid risk.
📈 4. HTF Trend Filter (Daily / Weekly / Monthly)
Group: “HTF Trend Filter”
Enable HTF trend filter
If enabled, trades are only allowed:
Long when at least 2 of D/W/M closes are above their EMA
Short when at least 2 of D/W/M closes are below their EMA
EMA length (D/W/M)
EMA length for all three higher timeframes (Daily, Weekly, Monthly).
This helps focus entries in the direction of the dominant higher-timeframe trend.
📊 5. ATR Filter (Daily)
Group: “ATR Filter (Daily)”
Use daily ATR filter
If enabled, the height of the ORB (ORB high – ORB low) must be within
a band of the Daily ATR to allow any signals.
Daily ATR length
ATR period on the Daily timeframe.
Min ORB size vs ATR
Lower bound:
Example: 0.3 → ORB must be at least 0.3 × Daily ATR
0.0 = no minimum.
Max ORB size vs ATR
Upper bound:
Example: 1.5 → ORB must be ≤ 1.5 × Daily ATR
0.0 = no maximum.
If the ORB is too small (choppy) or too large (exhausted move), no breakout or FVG signal will be generated on that day.
🧭 6. HTF Dashboard & Signal Labels
Group: “HTF Trend Dashboard”
Show HTF dashboard
Draws a small label at the top of the chart showing:
HTF Trend (EMA X)
D: UP/FLAT/DOWN
W: UP/FLAT/DOWN
M: UP/FLAT/DOWN
Dashboard position
Top Right, Top Center, Top Left – places the dashboard at the top.
Over Risk Info – no top dashboard; instead, the HTF trend info is shown as a label near the risk box when a new signal appears.
Lookback (bars) for top anchor
How many bars to use to determine the top price level for dashboard placement.
Show HTF trend above risk box on signal
Only relevant if Dashboard position = Over Risk Info.
When enabled, a small HTF label appears near the risk box for each new trade.
Signal label vertical offset (ticks)
Vertical spacing between risk info label and HTF label.
Minimum spacing HTF/Risk (ticks)
Ensures a minimum vertical distance so the two labels don’t overlap.
HTF signal label X offset (bars)
Horizontal offset (left/right) relative to the risk info label.
⏳ 7. ORB–FVG Filters (Session & Time Window)
Group: “ORB FVG Filter”
Only same session day
If enabled, FVG entries are only allowed on the same calendar day
as the ORB. When the date changes, all state & drawings are reset.
Limit hours after ORB
Enables a time window after the ORB end.
Trading window after ORB (hours)
Length of that window in hours.
Example: 2.0 → FVG signals only in the first 2 hours after ORB end.
💰 8. Risk Management & Position Sizing
Group: “Risk Management”
Calculate position size
If enabled, the script computes suggested mini and micro contract size for you.
Account size
Your trading account size (in account currency).
Risk mode
Percent – risk is a % of account size (Account risk %).
Fixed amount – risk is a fixed dollar amount (Fixed risk ($)).
Account risk %
Risk per trade as a percentage of account size (e.g. 1.0 for 1%).
Fixed risk ($)
Fixed risk per trade in dollars when using Fixed amount mode.
Micro factor (vs mini)
How much a micro contract is worth relative to a mini.
Example:
0.1 → one micro moves 1/10 of one mini.
Risk Info label
For each new trade, a label is shown above the boxes with:
Stop distance in price and $ risk per mini
Max risk allowed for the trade
Suggested mini and micro size
Text like:
Suggested: 2 mini
Suggested: 5 micro
or Suggested: no trade
This makes the script especially useful for prop-firm rules or strict risk discipline.
🎨 9. Visual Style (Boxes, Labels, ORB Lines)
Group: “Box & Label Style (Trade)”
Label font size (Very small, Small, Normal, Large)
Entry label BG / text color
Stop label BG / text color
TP label BG / text color
Risk info BG / text color
Risk box color (entry–stop zone)
Reward box color (entry–TP zone)
Group: “ORB Style”
ORB high line color
ORB low line color
ORB line width
ORB label font size
ORB label background color
ORB label text color
Show ORB midline
ORB midline color / width / style (Solid / Dashed / Dotted)
⚠️ 10. Alerts
Group: “Alerts”
The script defines three alert conditions:
Long entry FVG breakout
Triggered when a new long signal appears.
Short entry FVG breakout
Triggered when a new short signal appears.
FVG entry (long/short)
Generic alert for any new signal (long or short).
To use them:
Add the indicator to the chart.
Open the Alerts dialog → “Condition”.
Select this script and one of the alert conditions.
Set your preferred expiration and notification settings.
Alerts only fire when Enable FVG entry signals, boxes & alerts is on.
🧩 11. How the trading logic flows (summary)
Build ORB on 1-minute data during the selected session.
Optionally reject the day if ORB is outside the ATR bounds.
Wait for a breakout (close above high or below low), respecting HTF trend filter.
After breakout, look for the first valid FVG in that direction:
Outside the ORB (unless breakout FVG allowed inside)
Confirmed by the next candle (no full reclaim)
Once confirmed:
Compute entry, stop, target.
Draw risk/reward boxes and all labels.
Optionally show HTF signal label over the risk info.
Trigger alerts if enabled.
If you disable FVG signals, only steps 1–3 (plus dashboard) are effectively active.
⚠️ 12. Notes & Disclaimer
Script is intended for intraday trading up to 15-minute timeframes.
All signals are mechanical and do not guarantee profitability.
Always backtest and forward-test on your own data before risking real money.
This script is for educational purposes only and is not financial advice.
🚀 Quick-start guide
Add the script to your chart
Use an intraday timeframe ≤ 15 minutes (1m, 3m, 5m, 15m).
Works best on liquid indices, futures, FX and large-cap stocks.
Set the Morning Range
In “Morning Range Session” choose the exchange’s opening window.
Examples

Final reminder
All of these are templates, not guarantees:
Always check how the system behaves on your market and session.
Start on replay and demo before trading real money.
Adjust filters (HTF, ATR, thresholds) until the signals fit your personal approach.
