Key Prices & LevelsThis indicator is designed to visualize key price levels & areas for NY trading sessions based on the price action from previous day, pre-market activity and key areas from NY session itself. The purpose is to unify all key levels into a single indicator, while allowing a user to control which levels they want to visualize and how.
The indicator identifies the following:
Asia Range High/Lows, along with ability to visualize with a box
London Range High/Lows, along with ability to visualize with a box
Previous Day PM Session High/Lows
Current Day Lunch Session High/Lows, starts appearing after 12pm EST once the lunch session starts
New York Open (8:30am EST) price
9:53 Open (root candle) price
New York Midnight (12:00am EST) price
Previous Day High/Lows
First 1m FVG after NY Session Start (after 9:30am), with the ability to configure minimum FVG size.
Opening Range Gap, showing regular market hours close price (previous day 16:15pm EST close), new session open price (9:30am EST open) and optionally the mid-point between the two
Asia Range 50% along with 2, 2.5, 4 and 4.5 deviations of the Asia range in both directions
Configurability:
Each price level can be turned off
Styles in terms of line type, color
Ability to turn on/off labels for price levels and highlighting of prices on price scale
Ability to control label text for price levels
How is it different:
Identifies novel concepts such as 9:53 open, root candle that can be used as a bounce/resistance area during AM/PM sessions as well as confirmation of direction once closed over/under to indicate price's willingness to continue moving in the same direction.
It also shows 1st 1m FVG after New York Session open, that can be used to determine direction of the price action depending on PA's reaction to that area. While both 9:53 and 1m FVG are 1m based markers, these levels are visualized by the indicator on all timeframes from 15s to 1h.
Additionally the indicator is able to both highlight key prices in the price scale pane as well as combine labels to minimize clutter when multiple levels have the same price.
Lastly for in-session ranges such as Lunch High/Low the indicator updates the range in real-time as opposed to waiting for the lunch session to be over.

Ever wished you had a glimpse into the market's next move? Stop guessing and start anticipating with the Market Structure Crystal Ball!
This isn't just another indicator that tells you what has happened. This is a comprehensive analysis tool that learns from historical price action to forecast the most probable future structure. It combines advanced pattern recognition with essential trading concepts to give you a unique analytical edge.
Key Features
The Predictive Engine (The Crystal Ball)
This is the core of the indicator. It doesn't just identify market structure; it predicts it.
Know the Odds: Get a real-time probability score (%) for the next structural point: Higher High (HH), Higher Low (HL), Lower Low (LL), or Lower High (LH).
Advanced Analysis: The engine considers the pattern sequence, the speed (velocity) of the move, and its size to find the most accurate historical matches.
Dynamic Learning: The indicator constantly updates its analysis as new price data comes in.
The All-in-One Dashboard
Your command center for at-a-glance information. No need to clutter your screen!
Market Phase: Instantly know if the market is in a "🚀 Strong Uptrend," "📉 Steady Downtrend," or "↔️ Consolidation."
Live Probabilities: See the updated forecasts for HH, HL, LL, and LH in a clean, easy-to-read format.
Confidence Level: The dashboard tells you how confident the algorithm is in its current prediction (Low, Medium, or High).
🎯 Dynamic Prediction Zones
Turn probabilities into actionable price areas.
Visual Targets: Based on the highest probability outcome, the indicator draws a target zone on your chart where the next structure point is likely to form.
Context-Aware: These zones are calculated using recent volatility and average swing sizes, making them adaptive to the current market conditions.
🔍 Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detector
Automatically identify and track key price imbalances.
Price Magnets: FVGs are automatically detected and drawn, acting as potential targets for price.
Smart Tracking: The indicator tracks the status of each FVG (Fresh, Partially Filled, or Filled) and uses this data to refine its predictions.
🌍 Trading Session Analysis
Never lose track of key session levels again.
Visualize Sessions: See the Asia, London, and New York sessions highlighted with colored backgrounds.
Key Levels: Automatically plots the high and low of each session, which are often critical support and resistance levels.
Breakout Alerts: Get notified when price breaks a session high or low.
📈 Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Context
Understand the bigger picture by integrating higher timeframe analysis directly onto your chart.
BOS & MSS: Automatically identifies Breaks of Structure (trend continuation) and Market Structure Shifts (potential reversals) from up to two higher timeframes.
Trade with the Trend: Align your intraday trades with the dominant trend for higher probability setups.
⚙️ How It Works in Simple Terms
1️⃣ It Learns: The indicator first identifies all the past swing points (HH, HL, LL, LH) and analyzes their characteristics (speed, size, etc.).
2️⃣ It Finds a Match: It looks at the most recent price action and searches through hundreds of historical bars to find moments that were almost identical.
3️⃣ It Analyzes the Outcome: It checks what happened next in those similar historical scenarios.
4️⃣ It Predicts: Based on that historical data, it calculates the probability of each potential outcome and presents it to you.
🚀 How to Use This Indicator in Your Trading
Confirmation Tool: Use a high probability score (e.g., >60% for a HH) to confirm your own bullish analysis before entering a trade.
Finding High-Probability Zones: Use the Prediction Zones as potential areas to take profit, or as reversal zones to watch for entries in the opposite direction.
Gauging Market Sentiment: Check the "Market Phase" on the dashboard. Avoid forcing trades when the indicator shows "😴 Low Volatility."
Confluence is Key: This indicator is incredibly powerful when combined with your existing strategy. Use it alongside supply/demand zones, moving averages, or RSI for ultimate confirmation.
We hope this tool gives you a powerful new perspective on the market. Dive into the settings to customize it to your liking!

Trading Macro Windows by BW v2
Trading Macros by BW: Integrating ICT Concepts for Session Analysis
This indicator combines two key Inner Circle Trader (ICT) concepts—Change in State of Delivery (CISD) or Inverted Fair Value Gap (IFVG) signals with Macro Time Windows—to provide a unified tool for analyzing intraday price action, particularly during Pacific Time (PT) sessions. Rather than simply merging existing scripts, this integration creates a cohesive visual framework that highlights how macro consolidation periods interact with potential reversal or continuation signals like CISD or IFVG. By overlaying macro candle styling and borders on the chart alongside selectable signal lines, traders can better contextualize setups within ICT's macro narrative, where price often manipulates liquidity during these windows before displacing toward higher-timeframe objectives.
Core Components and How They Work Together:
Macro Time Windows (Inspired by ICT's Macro Periods):
ICT emphasizes "macro" as 30-minute windows (e.g., 06:45–07:15 PT, 07:45–08:15 PT, up to 11:45–12:15 PT) where price tends to consolidate, sweep liquidity, or form key structures like Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). These periods set the stage for the session's directional bias.
The indicator styles candles within these windows using a user-defined color for wicks, borders, and bodies (translucent for visibility). This visual emphasis helps traders focus on activity inside macros, where reversals or continuations often originate.
Borders are drawn as vertical lines at the start and end of each window (with a +5 minute buffer to capture related activity), using a dotted style by default. This creates a "study zone" that encapsulates macro events, allowing traders to assess if price is respecting or violating these zones in alignment with broader ICT models like the Power of 3 (AMD cycle).
Toggle: "Macro Candles Enabled" (default: true) – Turn off to disable styling and borders if focusing solely on signals.
CISD or IFVG Signals (Selectable Mode):
Mode Selection: Choose between "Change in the State of Delivery" (CISD) or "IFVG" (default: IFVG). Both detect shifts in market delivery during specific 30-minute slices (15–45 or 17–45 minutes past the hour in PT sessions).
CISD Mode: Based on ICT's definition of a sudden directional shift, this identifies aggressive displacements after sweeping recent highs/lows. It uses a rolling reference high/low over 6 bars, checks for sweeps (penetrating by at least 2 ticks in the last 2-3 bars), reclamation (closing beyond the reference with at least 50% body), and displacement (50% of prior range or an immediate FVG of 6+ ticks). Signals plot a horizontal line from the close, extending 24 bars right, labeled "CISD."
IFVG Mode: Focuses on Inverted Fair Value Gaps, where a bullish FVG (low > high by 13+ ticks) forms but is inverted (closed below) in the same slice, signaling bearish intent (or vice versa). This targets violations against opposing liquidity, often leading to raids on external ranges. Signals plot similarly, labeled "IFVG."
Shared Logic: Both modes enforce a 55-bar cooldown to prevent clustering, operate only during PT sessions (06:30–13:00), and use tick-based thresholds for precision across instruments. The integration with macros allows traders to see if signals occur within or at the edges of macro windows, enhancing confirmation—for example, a CISD inside a macro might indicate a manipulated reversal toward the session's true objective.
Toggle: "Signals Enabled" (default: true) – Turn off to hide all signal lines and labels, isolating the macro visualization.
How Components Interact:
Macro windows provide the "narrative context" (consolidation/manipulation), while CISD/IFVG signals detect the "delivery shift" (displacement). Together, they form a mashup that justifies publication: isolated signals can be noisy, but when filtered by macro periods, they align with ICT's session model. For instance, an IFVG inversion during a macro might confirm a liquidity sweep before targeting PD arrays or order blocks.
No external dependencies; all calculations are self-contained using Pine's built-in functions like ta.highest/lowest for references and time-based sessions for windows.
Usage Guidelines:
Apply to intraday charts (e.g., 1-5 min) or stocks during PT hours.
Look for confluence: A bull IFVG signal post-macro low sweep might target the next macro high or daily bias.
Customize colors/styles for signals (solid/dashed/dotted lines) and macros to suit your chart.
Backtest in replay mode to observe how macros frame signals—e.g., price often respects macro borders as S/R.
Limitations: Timezone-fixed to PT (America/Los_Angeles); signals are directional hints, not trade entries. Combine with ICT tools like order blocks or liquidity pools for full setups.
This script draws from community ICT implementations but refines them into a single, purpose-built tool for macro-driven trading, reducing chart clutter while emphasizing interconnected concepts. Feedback welcome!

ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2📜 ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2 — Advanced Liquidity Reversal System
Overview:
The ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2 is a next-generation liquidity reversal indicator built on the principles of smart money concepts (SMC) and the classic ICT Turtle Soup setup. It is designed to detect false breakouts (liquidity grabs) at key swing points, enhanced by proprietary logic that filters out low-quality signals using a combination of trend context, kill zone timing, candle wick behavior, and multi-timeframe imbalance zones.
This tool is ideal for intraday traders seeking high-probability entry signals near liquidity pools and imbalance zones — where smart money makes its move.
🔍 What This Script Does
🧠 Liquidity Grab Detection (Turtle Soup Core Logic)
The script scans for recent swing highs/lows using a user-defined lookback.
A signal is generated when price breaks above/below a previous swing level but closes back inside — indicating a liquidity run and likely reversal.
A special Wick Trap Mode enhances this logic by detecting long-wick fakeouts — where the wick grabs stops but the candle body closes opposite the breakout direction.
📉 Trend Filter with ATR Buffer
Optional trend filter uses a simple moving average (SMA) to gauge market direction.
Instead of hard filtering, it applies an ATR-based buffer to allow for entries near the trend line, reducing signal suppression from micro-fluctuations.
🕰️ Kill Zone Session Filtering
Only show signals during institutional trading hours:
London Session
New York AM
Or any custom user-defined session
Helps traders avoid low-volume hours and focus on where stop hunts and price expansions typically occur.
🧱 Multi-Timeframe FVG Confluence (Optional)
Signal validation is strengthened by checking if price is within a higher timeframe Fair Value Gap — commonly used to identify imbalances or inefficiencies.
Filters out setups that lack underlying displacement or order flow justification.
🎨 Visual Feedback
Plots 🔺 bullish and 🔻 bearish markers at signal candles.
Optionally displays:
Swing High/Low Labels (SH / SL)
Reversal distance labels
Background color shading on valid signals
Includes built-in alerts for automated trade notification.
🔑 Unique Benefits
Wick Trap Detection: A proprietary approach to detecting stop hunts via wick behavior, not just candle closes.
ATR-based trend filtering: Avoids unnecessary filtering while still maintaining directional bias.
All-in-one system: No need to stack multiple indicators — swing detection, reversal logic, session filtering, and imbalance confirmation are all integrated.
💡 How to Use
Enable Wick Trap Mode to detect stealthy liquidity grabs with strong wicks.
Use Kill Zone filters to trade only when institutions are active.
Optionally enable FVG confluence to improve confidence in reversal zones.
Watch for Bullish signals near SL levels and Bearish signals near SH levels.
Combine with your own execution strategy or other SMC tools for optimal results.

ICT Gold Trading ToolFirst, I recall the original code had elements like Break of Structure, Fair Value Gaps, Premium/Discount Zones, Liquidity Pools, and Buy/Sell signals. The user had previous feedback pointing out issues in the code, like incorrect timeframe usage for BOS and FVG inaccuracies. They also suggested improvements, which were incorporated into a revised version.
So, the brief note should highlight the main components of the tool without getting too technical. The user probably wants this for a quick overview, maybe to share with others or for their own reference. They might be a trader familiar with ICT concepts, so using terms like BOS or FVG is okay without explaining each one.
I need to mention that the tool combines multiple ICT strategies into one indicator. It uses higher timeframes for BOS, which is important for structure. FVG detection was corrected in the revised code, so I should note that it identifies 3-candle patterns. The zones and liquidity pools help in identifying market extremes and areas where price might reverse. The buy/sell signals are based on a combination of BOS and zones, which adds confluence.
Also, the user might appreciate knowing that the tool is customizable with inputs for periods, making it adaptable to different trading styles. Emphasizing that it's for visual assistance and not standalone signals is crucial to remind users to use additional analysis.
TJR SEEK AND DESTROYTJR SEEK AND DESTROY – Intraday ICT Trading Tool
Built for day traders, TJR SEEK AND DESTROY combines Smart Money concepts like order blocks, fair value gaps, and liquidity sweeps with structure breaks and daily bias to pinpoint high-probability trades during US market hours (9:30–16:00). Ideal for scalping or intraday strategies on stocks, futures, or forex.
What Makes It Unique?
Unlike standalone ICT indicators, this script integrates:
Order Blocks with volume and range filters for precise support/resistance zones.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) to spot pre-market price imbalances.
Break of Structure (BOS) and Liquidity Sweeps for trend and reversal signals.
A 1H MA-based Bias to align trades with the day’s direction.
BUY/SELL Labels triggered only when bias, BOS, and sweeps align, reducing noise.
How Does It Work?
Order Blocks: Marks zones with high volume (>1.5x 20-period SMA) and low range (<0.5x ATR20) as teal boxes—potential reversal points.
Fair Value Gap: Compares the prior day’s close to the current open (pre- or post-9:30), shown as a purple line and label (e.g., "FVG: 0.005").
Pivot Point: Calculates (prevHigh + prevLow + prevClose) / 3 from the prior day, plotted as an orange line for equilibrium.
Break of Structure: Detects crossovers of 5-bar highs/lows (gray lines), marked with red triangles.
Liquidity Sweeps: Tracks breaches of the prior day’s high/low (yellow lines), marked with yellow triangles.
Daily Bias: Uses 1H close vs. 20-period MA (blue line) for bullish (green background), bearish (red), or neutral (gray) context.
Signals: BUY (green label) when bias is bullish, price breaks up, and sweeps the prior high; SELL (red label) when bias is bearish, price breaks down, and sweeps the prior low.
How to Use It
Setup: Apply to 1M–15M charts for US session trading (9:30–16:00 EST).
Trading:
Wait for a BUY label after a yellow sweep triangle above the prior day’s high in a green (bullish) background.
Wait for a SELL label after a yellow sweep triangle below the prior day’s low in a red (bearish) background.
Use order blocks (teal boxes) as support/resistance for stop-loss or take-profit.
Markets: Best for SPY, ES futures, or forex pairs with US session volatility.
Underlying Concepts
Order Blocks: High-volume, low-range bars suggest institutional activity.
FVG: Gaps between close and open indicate imbalance to be filled.
BOS & Sweeps: Price breaking key levels signals momentum or stop-hunting.
Bias: 1H MA filters trades by broader trend.
Chart Setup
Displays order blocks (teal boxes), pivot (orange), open (purple), bias (colored background), BOS/sweeps (triangles), and signals (labels). Keep other indicators off for clarity.
thinkCNE - Key with Multiple ColoursCustomisable Key with Multi-Coloured Highlights for Chart Annotations
Overview:
This Customizable Key indicator is designed to provide traders with a clear and visually customizable legend that can be displayed on their chart. It allows users to annotate their charts with up to 10 distinct labels, each paired with a unique color-coded square. This feature is especially useful when you need to visually differentiate between various technical elements on your chart, such as support/resistance levels, Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), or important pivot points.
Key Features:
Customizable Labels and Colors: Each row in the table can be customized with unique text and background colors. This flexibility allows traders to create a personalized key that reflects the specific elements they are tracking, such as monthly FVGs, daily supports, volume-based zones, or any other custom annotations.
Flexible Number of Rows: The user can enable or disable rows as needed, which ensures that the table only shows relevant information. If fewer than 10 rows are required, the unused rows can be hidden from view, maintaining a clean and uncluttered chart.
Dynamic Table Placement: The key can be placed at different positions on the chart (top-right, middle-right, or bottom-right), giving users control over where the key appears to avoid covering important parts of their technical analysis.
Adjustable Size and Text Format: Users can customize the size of the color squares, the text, and even the overall appearance of the table. The text size can range from small to huge, making the labels easy to read based on personal preferences.
Use Cases:
Annotating Key Technical Zones: The indicator is perfect for annotating multiple technical zones or levels that require consistent attention. For example, traders can label areas like "Monthly FVG," "Daily Support," "Key Resistance," or even "Volume Spike," and color-code them accordingly for quick reference.
Drawing Clarity: A well-organized chart is essential for clear decision-making. This indicator enhances clarity by visually categorizing different chart features, making it easier to quickly interpret the chart without confusion. The customizable color squares ensure that users can quickly identify which technical element corresponds to which label on the chart.
Visual Aid for Strategy Execution: For traders using strategies involving multiple indicators, support and resistance lines, or patterns, this key helps keep track of all the elements, especially when several overlapping annotations might clutter the chart. It allows users to draw specific attention to key areas of interest and explain the rationale for each one.
Educational & Presentational Tool: If you're conducting trading education sessions or presentations, this indicator can serve as a powerful tool to explain concepts in real-time. You can present your chart with clearly marked zones or levels, where each color and label explains the reasoning behind your analysis. It’s a professional tool for walkthroughs or strategy breakdowns.
Benefits:
Enhanced Visual Organization: The color-coded squares and corresponding labels make it easier to maintain organization within a busy chart. Traders can distinguish between multiple chart elements at a glance, which enhances their focus on critical zones or setups.
Improved Decision-Making: By clearly labeling and color-coding areas of importance, traders can reduce the time it takes to assess the chart and make decisions, as the key provides a concise reference.
Customizable to Individual Needs: Traders can adapt the indicator to their specific trading style and chart elements, whether they're swing traders marking longer-term zones or day traders focusing on short-term levels.
Clarity on Complex Charts: For traders using charts with several indicators and drawings, the ability to clearly define what each color and label represents ensures that the chart remains understandable, even with multiple overlays.
Point and Figure Displacement IndicatorThe PnF Displacement indicator is my custom script for TradingView, designed to analyze Point and Figure (PnF) charts with displacement features.
Key components of the script include:
User Inputs:
Require FVG: A boolean input to determine if a Fair Value Gap (FVG) is required for displacement calculations.
Displacement Type: Allows users to choose between "Open to Close" and "High to Low" for column range calculations.
Displacement Length: Defines how far back to look for calculating the standard deviation of the column range.
Displacement Strength: Multiplier for the standard deviation to adjust sensitivity.
Box Size: Sets the size of each box in the PnF chart.
Number of Boxes for Minimum Displacement: Specifies how many boxes to consider for calculating the minimum displacement.
Displacement Logic:
The script calculates the column range based on the selected displacement type.
It computes a standard deviation of the candle range and determines a minimum displacement based on user-defined box size and count.
The displacement condition combines the FVG check and the column range against the calculated minimum.
Visual Representation:
The bars are colored based on displacement conditions, enhancing visual analysis on the chart.
This indicator aids traders in identifying significant price movements in PnF charts while incorporating user customization options for better analysis.
ICT Balance Price Range [UAlgo]The "ICT Balance Price Range " indicator identifies and visualizes potential balance price ranges (BPRs) on a price chart. These ranges are indicative of periods where the market exhibits balance between bullish and bearish forces, often preceding significant price movements.
🔶 What is Balanced Price Range (BPR) ?
Balanced Price Range is a concept based on Fair Value Gap. Balanced price range (BPR) is the area on price chart where two opposite fair value gaps overlap.
When price approaches the Balanced Price Range (BPR), we assume that the price will react quickly and strongly here. This is because its the combination of two fair value gaps and being a good point of interest for smart money traders.
🔶 Key Features:
Bars to Consider: Determines the number of bars to evaluate for BPR conditions.
Threshold for BPR: Sets the minimum range required for a valid BPR to be identified.
Remove Old BPR: Option to automatically remove invalidated BPRs from the chart.
Bearish/Bullish Box Color: Customizable colors for visual representation of bearish and bullish BPRs.

Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
ICT Premium/DiscountGuided by ICT mentorship and help from TraderTim and its community, I created this versatile indicator to mark a "Premium/Discount" price range.
This indicator shows the Premium and Discount Zones in an alternative way, manually setting the start of the band and automatically shows the HTF and LTF FVG present only in the set band, having a cleaning of the graph from possible other distractions, so as to be able to have a clear vision clear of the set trading range
The user has the possibility to:
- Choose the start of the interval from the graph by moving the start line
- Choose to show levels 50% - 75% - 25% of the range
- Choose the color, style and size of the lines
- Choose to display FVG LTF or HTF in range
- Choose the FVG mitigation mode
The indicator must be used as shown by the ICT in its concepts, the Premium and Discount zones are nothing more than zones where the price risks retracing, and consequently we can evaluate making entries in the Premium Zone, Sell is evaluated, in the Discoutn Zone they are evaluated as Buy, taking the opposite area as Take Profit

Order Block & Fractal Zones (OBFZ) Indicator.The "Order Block & Fractal Zones (OBFZ) Indicator." indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to identify and display key price levels on a chart. It utilizes the concept of Order Blocks and the Fractal Value Zone (FVG) to highlight potential support and resistance areas in the market.
The indicator marks bearish and bullish Order Blocks, which are significant price structures characterized by consecutive higher highs and higher lows for a bearish block, or consecutive lower lows and lower highs for a bullish block. These blocks suggest potential areas of market reversal.
Additionally, the indicator calculates and displays retracement and extension levels within each Order Block. These levels are derived from the previous highest and lowest values within a specified number of candles. The retracement levels include 38.2%, 50%, and 61.8%, while the extension levels include 138.2%, 150%, and 161.8%.
Furthermore, the Fractal Value Zone (FVG) is determined to identify the highest high and lowest low within the selected number of candles. The FVG helps identify areas of significant price action and potential breakout zones.
Overall, the "Order Block & Fractal Zones (OBFZ) Indicator." indicator assists traders in identifying potential support and resistance levels, as well as areas of market reversal or breakout. It can be used to make informed trading decisions based on key price levels within the observed price action.
Bodies X Wix Version of Smart Money Tools by makuchaku & eFeThis is the same Script as Super Fair Value Gaps / FVG /BoS / by makuchaku & eFe. Mine Should Default to Large Text instead of small. The Super Order Blocks I believe was meant to for you to find one of the many Smart Money tools such as turn on the Fair Value gap but leave the others off, or Turn on where the Break of Structure and leave the others off. The reason I believe this is because the default values for each of the structures were default colored (green for positive and red for negative) for all.
Mine has a different Color for every possible structure. As long as you can read with the larger text that I added, then you can create your own boxes positive for break of structure, rejection block, order blocks and fair value gaps for any time frame. The reason I did that is because There's only certain things I believe I will need to mark for myself in each time frame, and then from there You can stretch iyour own box out further in time because if price touches a fair value gap for example, the fair value gap should conyinue in time until at least 2 candles have filed the Fair valu gap going both directions. That's truly when the fair value gap should is mitigated and will from off the chart. However, If I knew How to add the code for that, I would.
Additionally, I have the Max Boxes per chart, so you should have the ability to see every OB, FVG,RJB, & BoS on the chart
I tried my hardest to create a colored border that was different from the box. But the way the original was coded was almost impossible to do. Because they defined each of the structures (FVG, OB, BoS, RJB) outer levels, when the outer levels connect via math in the code, then it joins all the outside lines for a rectangle. When creating a box, the coloe will always be the same as the border unfortunately. (Unless I replan this from the beginning)
I also Changed the default labels for reach structure from a hard to read gray to a white that pops out.
Also, chart indicators are a little large as well. Such as the cross, sideways cross, The green Triangle, and the white Diamond. You'll get used to it or you can change it as well.
Creating videos for students, you need something they can see.
So, I just wanted to ensure everything was a little more unique and easily usable when showing this to my students when I send them private videos for our weekly lessons. I'm trying to learn how to use the IPFS for THAT, (which i see has invaded PineScript) Hope this indicator helps.

RSI MA Cross + Divergence Signal (fixed)🔹 Core Logic
RSI + Moving Average
The script calculates a standard RSI (default 14).
It then overlays a moving average (SMA/EMA/WMA, default 9).
When RSI crosses above its MA → bullish momentum.
When RSI crosses below its MA → bearish momentum.
Divergence Filter
Signals are only valid if there’s confirmed divergence:
Bullish divergence: Price makes a lower low, RSI makes a higher low.
Bearish divergence: Price makes a higher high, RSI makes a lower high.
Overbought / Oversold Filter
Optional extra:
Bullish signals only valid if RSI ≤ 30 (oversold).
Bearish signals only valid if RSI ≥ 70 (overbought).
This ensures signals happen in “stretched” conditions.
Risk & Trade Management
Entries taken only when all conditions align.
Exits can be managed with ATR stops, partial take-profits, breakeven moves, and trailing stops (we coded these in the strategy version).
Cooldown, session filters, and daily loss guard to keep risk tight.
🔹 Strengths
✅ High selectivity: Combining RSI cross + divergence + OB/OS means signals are rare but higher quality.
✅ Great at catching reversals: Divergence highlights where price may be running out of steam.
✅ Risk management baked in: ATR stops + partial exits smooth out equity curve.
✅ Works across markets: ES, FX, crypto — anywhere RSI divergences are respected.
✅ Flexible: You can loosen/tighten filters depending on aggressiveness.
🔹 Weaknesses
❌ Lag from pivots: Divergence only confirms after a few bars → you enter late sometimes.
❌ Choppy in ranges: In sideways markets, RSI divergences appear often and whipsaw.
❌ Filters reduce signals: With all filters ON (divergence + OB/OS + trend + session), signals can be very rare — may under-trade.
❌ Not standalone: Needs higher-timeframe context (trend, liquidity pools) to avoid counter-trend entries.
🔹 Best Ways to Trade It
Use Higher Timeframe Bias
Run the strategy on 15m/1H, but only trade in direction of higher timeframe trend (e.g., 4H EMA).
Example: If daily is bullish → only take bullish divergences.
Pair With Structure
Look for signals at key zones: HTF support/resistance, VWAP, or FVGs.
Divergence + RSI cross inside an FVG is a strong entry trigger.
Adjust OB/OS for Volatility
For crypto/FX: use 35/65 instead of 30/70 (markets trend harder).
For ES/S&P: 30/70 works fine.
Risk Management Is King
Use partial exits: take profit at 1R, trail rest.
Size by % of equity (we coded this into the strategy).
Avoid News Spikes
Divergences break down around CPI, NFP, Fed announcements — stay flat.
🔹 When It Shines
Trending markets that make extended pushes → clean divergences.
Reversal zones (oversold → bullish bounce, overbought → bearish fade).
Swing trading (15m–4H) — less noise than 1m/5m scalping.
🔹 When to Avoid
Low volatility chop → lots of false divergences.
During high-impact news → RSI swings wildly.
In strong one-way trends without pullbacks — divergence keeps calling tops/bottoms too early.
✅ Summary:
This is a reversal-focused RSI divergence strategy with strict filters. It’s powerful when combined with higher-timeframe bias + structure confluence, but weak if traded blindly in choppy or news-driven conditions. Best to treat it as a precision entry trigger, not a full system — layer it on top of your FVG/ORB framework for maximum edge.
Trend FriendTrend Friend — What it is and how to use it
I built Trend Friend to stop redrawing the same trendlines all day. It automatically connects confirmed swing points (fractals) and keeps the most relevant lines in front of you. The goal: give you clean, actionable structure without the guesswork.
What it does (in plain English)
Finds swing highs/lows using a Fractal Period you choose.
Draws auto-trendlines between the two most recent confirmed highs and the two most recent confirmed lows.
Colours by intent:
Lines drawn from highs (potential resistance / bearish) = Red
Lines drawn from lows (potential support / bullish) = Green
Keeps the chart tidy: The newest lines are styled as “recent,” older lines are dimmed as “historical,” and it prunes anything beyond your chosen limit.
Optional crosses & alerts: You can highlight when price closes across the most recent line and set alerts for new lines formed and upper/lower line crosses.
Structure labels: It tags HH, LH, HL, LL at the swing points, so you can quickly read trend/rotation.
How it works (under the hood)
A “fractal” here is a confirmed pivot: the highest high (or lowest low) with n bars on each side. That means pivots only confirm after n bars, so signals are cleaner and less noisy.
When a new pivot prints, the script connects it to the prior pivot of the same type (high→high, low→low). That gives you one “bearish” line from highs and one “bullish” line from lows.
The newest line is marked as recent (brighter), and the previous recent line becomes historical (dimmed). You can keep as many pairs as you want, but I usually keep it tight.
Inputs you’ll actually use
Fractal Period (n): this is the big one. It controls how swingy/strict the pivots are.
Lower n → more swings, more lines (faster, noisier)
Higher n → fewer swings, cleaner lines (slower, swing-trade friendly)
Max pair of lines: how many pairs (up+down) to keep on the chart. 1–3 is a sweet spot.
Extend: extend lines Right (my default) or Both ways if you like the context.
Line widths & colours: recent vs. historical are separate so you can make the active lines pop.
Show crosses: toggle the X markers when price crosses a line. I turn this on when I’m actively hunting breakouts/retests.
Reading the chart
Red lines (from highs): I treat these as potential resistance. A clean break + hold above a red line often flips me from “fade” to “follow.”
Green lines (from lows): Potential support. Same idea in reverse: break + hold below and I stop buying dips until I see structure reclaim.
HH / LH / HL / LL dots: quick read on structure.
HH/HL bias = uptrend continuation potential
LH/LL bias = downtrend continuation potential
Mixed prints = rotation/chop—tighten risk or wait for clarity.
My H1 guidance (fine-tuning Fractal Period)
If you’re mainly on H1 (my use case), tune like this:
Fast / aggressive: n = 6–8 (lots of signals, good for momentum days; more chop risk)
Balanced (recommended): n = 9–12 (keeps lines meaningful but responsive)
Slow / swing focus: n = 13–21 (filters noise; better for trend days and higher-TF confluence)
Rule of thumb: if you’re getting too many touches and whipsaws, increase n. If you’re late to obvious breaks, decrease n.
How I trade it (example workflow)
Pick your n for the session (H1: start at 9–12).
Mark the recent red & green lines. That’s your immediate structure.
Look for interaction:
Rejections from a line = fade potential back into the range.
Break + close across a line = watch the retest for continuation.
Confirm with context: session bias, HTF structure, and your own tools (VWAP, RSI, volume, FVG/OB, etc.).
Plan the trade: enter on retest or reclaim, stop beyond the line/last swing, target the opposite side or next structure.
Alerts (set and forget)
“New trendline formed” — fires when a new high/low pivot confirms and a fresh line is drawn.
“Upper/lower trendline crossed” — fires when price crosses the most recent red/green line.
Use these to track structure shifts without staring at the screen.
Good to know (honest limitations)
Confirmation lag: pivots need n bars on both sides, so signals arrive after the swing confirms. That’s by design—less noise, fewer fake lines.
Lines update as structure evolves: when a new pivot forms, the previous “recent” line becomes “historical,” and older ones can be removed based on your max setting.
Not an auto trendline crystal ball: it won’t predict which line holds or breaks—it just keeps the most relevant structure clean and up to date.
Final notes
Works on any timeframe; I built it with H1 in mind and scale to H4/D1 by increasing n.
Pairs nicely with session tools and VWAP for intraday, or with supply/demand / FVGs for swing planning.
Risk first: lines are structure, not guarantees. Manage position size and stops as usual.
Not financial advice. Trade your plan. Stay nimble.
