Daytrade Forex Scalper TwinPulse Auction Timer IndicatorWhat this indicator is
TwinPulse Auction Timer is a multi component execution aid designed for liquid markets. It looks for two families of opportunities
Breakouts that leave a compression area after a fresh sweep
Reversals that trigger after a sweep with strong wick polarity
It does not try to predict future prices. It measures present auction conditions with transparent rules and shows you when those conditions align. You get a simple table that says LONG SHORT or WAIT, optional session shading, clean entry and exit level visuals, and alerts you can wire to your workflow.
Why it is different
Most tools show a single signal. TwinPulse combines several independent signals into an Edge Score that you can tune. The components are
• Pulse. A signed measure of wick asymmetry with candle body direction
• Compression. Current true range compared with an average range
• Sweep timer. Bars elapsed since the most recent sweep of a prior high or low
• Bias. Direction of a higher timeframe candle
• Regime. Efficiency ratio and the relation of micro to macro volatility
• Location. Distance from the daily anchored VWAP
• Session. London and New York filter by time windows
Each component is visible in the inputs and in the table so you can understand why a suggestion appears. The script uses request.security() with lookahead off in all calls so it does not peek into the future. Shapes may move while a bar is open since price is still forming. They stop moving when the bar closes.
What you will see on the chart
• L and S shapes on entry bars
• An Exit shape at the price where a stop or the runner target would have been hit
• Four horizontal lines while a trade is active

How it works in detail
Pulse
For each bar the script measures up wick minus down wick divided by range and multiplies that by the sign of the candle body. The result is averaged with pulse_len. Positive numbers indicate aggressive buying. Negative numbers indicate aggressive selling. You control the minimum absolute value with pulse_thr.
Compression
Compression is the ratio of current range to an average range. You can choose the range basis. HL SMA uses simple high minus low smoothed by range_len. ATR uses classic True Range smoothed by atr_len. Values below comp_thr indicate a coil.
Sweeps and the timer
A sweep occurs when price trades beyond the highest high or lowest low seen in the previous sweep_len bars. A strict sweep requires a close back inside that prior range. The timer measures how many bars have elapsed since the last sweep. Breakout setups require the timer to exceed timer_thr.
Bias on a confirmation timeframe
A higher timeframe candle is read with confirm_tf. If close is above open bias is UP. If close is below open bias is DOWN. This keeps breakouts aligned with the prevailing drift.
Regime filters
Efficiency ratio measures the straight line change over the sum of absolute bar to bar changes over er_len. It rises in trendy conditions and falls in noise. Minimum efficiency is controlled by er_min.
Micro to macro volatility ratio compares a short lookback average range with a longer lookback average range using your chosen basis. For breakouts you usually want micro volatility to be near or above macro hence mvr_min. For reversals you often want micro volatility that is not overheated relative to macro hence mvr_max_rev.
VWAP distance gate
Daily anchored VWAP is rebuilt from the open of each session. The script computes the absolute distance from VWAP in units of your average range and requires that distance to exceed vwap_dist_thr when use_vwap_gate is true. This keeps entries away from the mean.
Edge Score
Each gate contributes a weight that you control. The script sums weights of the satisfied gates and divides by the sum of all weights to produce an Edge percent for long and an Edge percent for short. You can then require a minimum Edge percent using edge_min_pct. This turns the indicator into a step by step checklist that you can tune to your taste.
Using the indicator step by step
Choose markets and timeframes
The logic is designed for liquid instruments. Major currency pairs, index futures and cash index CFDs, and the most liquid crypto pairs work well. On intraday use one to fifteen minutes for signals and fifteen to sixty minutes for confirmation. On swing use one hour to one day for signals and one day for confirmation.
Decide on entry mode
Breakouts require a compression area and a sweep timer. Reversals require a strict sweep and a strong pulse. If you are unsure leave the default which allows both.
Pick a range basis
For FX and crypto HL SMA is often stable. For indices and single name equities with gaps ATR can adapt better. If results look too reactive increase the window. If results are too slow reduce it.
Tune regime filters
If you trade trend continuation raise er_min and mvr_min. If you trade counter rotation lower them and rely on the reversal path with the strict sweep condition.
Set the VWAP gate
Enabling it helps you avoid entries at the mean. Push the threshold higher on range bound days. Reduce it in strong trend days.
Table driven decision
Watch Action and the Edge percents. If the script says WAIT you can read Pulse and Compression to see what is missing. Often the best trades appear when both Edge percents are well separated and your session switch is ON.
Use the visuals
When a suggestion triggers you will see entry stop and targets. You can mirror the levels in your own workflow or use alerts.
Consider bar close
Signals are computed in real time. For a strict process you can wait until the bar closes to reduce noise.
Inputs explained with quick guidance
Setup
Signal TF chooses where the logic is computed. Leave blank to use the chart.
Confirm TF sets the higher timeframe for bias.
Session filter restricts signals to the London and New York windows you specify.
Invert flips long and short. It is useful on inverse instruments.
Logic options
Entry mode allows Breakouts Reversals or Both.
Average range basis selects HL SMA or ATR.
ATR length is used when ATR is selected.
Pulse source can be Regular OHLC or Heikin Ashi. Heikin Ashi smooths noisy series, but the script still runs on regular bars and you should publish and use it on standard candles to respect the platform guidance.
Core numeric settings
Sweep lookback controls the size of the liquidity pool targeted by the sweep condition.
Pulse window smooths the wick polarity measure.
Average range window controls your base range when you use HL SMA.
Pulse threshold sets the minimum polarity required.
Compression threshold sets the maximum current range relative to average to consider the market coiled.
Expansion timer bars sets how much time has passed since the last sweep before you allow a breakout.
Regime filters
Efficiency ratio length and minimum value keep you out of aimless drift.
Micro and Macro range lengths feed the micro to macro ratio.
Minimum micro to macro for breakouts and maximum micro to macro for reversals steer the two entry families.
VWAP gate and distance threshold keep you away from the mean.
Levels and trade management visuals
Runner target in R sets TP2 as a multiple of initial risk.
Stop distance as average range multiple sets initial risk size for the visuals.
Move stop to entry after one R touch turns on break even logic once price has traveled one risk unit.
Trail buffer as R fraction uses the last sweep as an anchor and keeps a dynamic stop at a chosen fraction of R beyond it.
Cooldown after exit prevents immediate re entries.
Edge Score
Weights for pulse compression timer bias efficiency ratio micro to macro VWAP gate and session let you align the checklist with your style.
Minimum Edge percent to suggest applies a final filter to LONG or SHORT suggestions.
UI
Table and markers switch the compact dashboard and the shapes.
TP and SL lines and labels draw and name each level.
TP1 partial label percent is printed in the TP1 label for clarity.
Session shading helps with focus.
Daily VWAP line is optional.
Alerts
The script provides alerts for Long Short Exit and for Edge percent crossing the threshold on either side. Use them to drive notifications or to sync with webhooks and your broker integration. Alerts trigger in real time and will repaint during a bar. For conservative use trigger on bar close.

Limitations and honest warnings
No indicator is perfect. TwinPulse will mark attractive conditions that do not always lead to profitable trades. During economic releases or very thin liquidity the assumptions behind compression and sweeps may fail. In strong gap environments the HL SMA basis may lag while ATR may overreact. Heikin Ashi pulse can help in choppy markets but it will lag during sharp reversals. Session times use the exchange time of your chart. If you switch symbol or exchange verify the windows.
Edge percent is not a probability of profit. It is the fraction of satisfied gates with your chosen weights. Two traders can set different weights and see different Edge readings on the same bar. That is the design. The score is a guide that helps you act with discipline.
This indicator does not place orders or manage real risk. The lines and labels show a model entry a model stop and two model targets built from the average range at entry and from recent swing points. Use them as references and not as hard rules. Always test on historical data and demo first. Past results do not guarantee anything in the future.
Credits and originality
All code in this publication is original and written for this indicator. The concept of the efficiency ratio originates from Perry Kaufman. The use of a daily anchored volume weighted average price is a standard industry tool. The specific combination of pulse from wick polarity strict sweep timing compression and the tunable Edge Score is unique to this script at the time of publication. If you reuse parts of the open source code in your own work remember to credit the author and contribute meaningful improvements.
How to read the table at a glance
Action reflects your current state.
IN LONG or IN SHORT appears while a trade is active.
LONG or SHORT appears when conditions for entry are met and the Edge threshold is satisfied.
WAIT appears when at least one gate is missing.
Session shows ON during your chosen windows.
Bias shows the color of the confirmation candle.
Pulse is the smoothed polarity number.
Comp shows current range divided by the average range. Values below one mean compression.
Edge L percent and Edge S percent show the long and short checklists as percents.
Final thoughts
Markets move because orders accumulate at certain prices and at certain times. The indicator tries to measure two things that often matter at those turning points. One is the existence of a hidden imbalance revealed by wick polarity and by sweeps of prior extremes. The other is the presence of energy stored in a coil that can release in the direction of a drift. Neither force guarantees profit. Together they can improve your selection and your timing.
Use the defaults for a few days so you learn the personality of the signals. After that adjust one group at a time. Start with the session filter and the Edge threshold. Then tune compression and the timer. Finally adjust the regime filters. Keep notes. You will learn which weights matter for your market and timeframe. The result is a process you can apply with consistency.

Stochastic Enhanced [DCAUT]█ Stochastic Enhanced
📊 ORIGINALITY & INNOVATION
The Stochastic Enhanced indicator builds upon George Lane's classic momentum oscillator (developed in the late 1950s) by providing comprehensive smoothing algorithm flexibility. While traditional implementations limit users to Simple Moving Average (SMA) smoothing, this enhanced version offers 21 advanced smoothing algorithms, allowing traders to optimize the indicator's characteristics for different market conditions and trading styles.
Key Improvements:
Extended from single SMA smoothing to 21 professional-grade algorithms including adaptive filters (KAMA, FRAMA), zero-lag methods (ZLEMA, T3), and advanced digital filters (Kalman, Laguerre)
Maintains backward compatibility with traditional Stochastic calculations through SMA default setting
Unified smoothing algorithm applies to both %K and %D lines for consistent signal processing characteristics
Enhanced visual feedback with clear color distinction and background fill highlighting for intuitive signal recognition
Comprehensive alert system covering crossovers and zone entries for systematic trade management
Differentiation from Traditional Stochastic:
Traditional Stochastic indicators use fixed SMA smoothing, which introduces consistent lag regardless of market volatility. This enhanced version addresses the limitation by offering adaptive algorithms that adjust to market conditions (KAMA, FRAMA), reduce lag without sacrificing smoothness (ZLEMA, T3, HMA), or provide superior noise filtering (Kalman Filter, Laguerre filters). The flexibility helps traders balance responsiveness and stability according to their specific needs.
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
Core Stochastic Calculation:
The Stochastic Oscillator measures the position of the current close relative to the high-low range over a specified period:
Step 1: Raw %K Calculation
%K_raw = 100 × (Close - Lowest Low) / (Highest High - Lowest Low)
Where:
Close = Current closing price
Lowest Low = Lowest low over the %K Length period
Highest High = Highest high over the %K Length period
Result ranges from 0 (close at period low) to 100 (close at period high)
Step 2: Smoothed %K Calculation
%K = MA(%K_raw, K Smoothing Period, MA Type)
Where:
MA = Selected moving average algorithm (SMA, EMA, etc.)
K Smoothing = 1 for Fast Stochastic, 3+ for Slow Stochastic
Traditional Fast Stochastic uses %K_raw directly without smoothing
Step 3: Signal Line %D Calculation
%D = MA(%K, D Smoothing Period, MA Type)
Where:
%D acts as a signal line and moving average of %K
D Smoothing typically set to 3 periods in traditional implementations
Both %K and %D use the same MA algorithm for consistent behavior
Available Smoothing Algorithms (21 Options):
Standard Moving Averages:
SMA (Simple): Equal-weighted average, traditional default, consistent lag characteristics
EMA (Exponential): Recent price emphasis, faster response to changes, exponential decay weighting
RMA (Rolling/Wilder's): Smoothed average used in RSI, less reactive than EMA
WMA (Weighted): Linear weighting favoring recent data, moderate responsiveness
VWMA (Volume-Weighted): Incorporates volume data, reflects market participation intensity
Advanced Moving Averages:
HMA (Hull): Reduced lag with smoothness, uses weighted moving averages and square root period
ALMA (Arnaud Legoux): Gaussian distribution weighting, minimal lag with good noise reduction
LSMA (Least Squares): Linear regression based, fits trend line to data points
DEMA (Double Exponential): Reduced lag compared to EMA, uses double smoothing technique
TEMA (Triple Exponential): Further lag reduction, triple smoothing with lag compensation
ZLEMA (Zero-Lag Exponential): Lag elimination attempt using error correction, very responsive
TMA (Triangular): Double-smoothed SMA, very smooth but slower response
Adaptive & Intelligent Filters:
T3 (Tilson T3): Six-pass exponential smoothing with volume factor adjustment, excellent smoothness
FRAMA (Fractal Adaptive): Adapts to market fractal dimension, faster in trends, slower in ranges
KAMA (Kaufman Adaptive): Efficiency ratio based adaptation, responds to volatility changes
McGinley Dynamic: Self-adjusting mechanism following price more accurately, reduced whipsaws
Kalman Filter: Optimal estimation algorithm from aerospace engineering, dynamic noise filtering
Advanced Digital Filters:
Ultimate Smoother: Advanced digital filter design, superior noise rejection with minimal lag
Laguerre Filter: Time-domain filter with N-order implementation, adjustable lag characteristics
Laguerre Binomial Filter: 6-pole Laguerre filter, extremely smooth output for long-term analysis
Super Smoother: Butterworth filter implementation, removes high-frequency noise effectively
📊 COMPREHENSIVE SIGNAL ANALYSIS
Absolute Level Interpretation (%K Line):
%K Above 80: Overbought condition, price near period high, potential reversal or pullback zone, caution for new long entries
%K in 70-80 Range: Strong upward momentum, bullish trend confirmation, uptrend likely continuing
%K in 50-70 Range: Moderate bullish momentum, neutral to positive outlook, consolidation or mild uptrend
%K in 30-50 Range: Moderate bearish momentum, neutral to negative outlook, consolidation or mild downtrend
%K in 20-30 Range: Strong downward momentum, bearish trend confirmation, downtrend likely continuing
%K Below 20: Oversold condition, price near period low, potential bounce or reversal zone, caution for new short entries
Crossover Signal Analysis:
%K Crosses Above %D (Bullish Cross): Momentum shifting bullish, faster line overtakes slower signal, consider long entry especially in oversold zone, strongest when occurring below 20 level
%K Crosses Below %D (Bearish Cross): Momentum shifting bearish, faster line falls below slower signal, consider short entry especially in overbought zone, strongest when occurring above 80 level
Crossover in Midrange (40-60): Less reliable signals, often in choppy sideways markets, require additional confirmation from trend or volume analysis
Multiple Failed Crosses: Indicates ranging market or choppy conditions, reduce position sizes or avoid trading until clear directional move
Advanced Divergence Patterns (%K Line vs Price):
Bullish Divergence: Price makes lower low while %K makes higher low, indicates weakening bearish momentum, potential trend reversal upward, more reliable when %K in oversold zone
Bearish Divergence: Price makes higher high while %K makes lower high, indicates weakening bullish momentum, potential trend reversal downward, more reliable when %K in overbought zone
Hidden Bullish Divergence: Price makes higher low while %K makes lower low, indicates trend continuation in uptrend, bullish trend strength confirmation
Hidden Bearish Divergence: Price makes lower high while %K makes higher high, indicates trend continuation in downtrend, bearish trend strength confirmation
Momentum Strength Analysis (%K Line Slope):
Steep %K Slope: Rapid momentum change, strong directional conviction, potential for extended moves but also increased reversal risk
Gradual %K Slope: Steady momentum development, sustainable trends more likely, lower probability of sharp reversals
Flat or Horizontal %K: Momentum stalling, potential reversal or consolidation ahead, wait for directional break before committing
%K Oscillation Within Range: Indicates ranging market, sideways price action, better suited for range-trading strategies than trend following
🎯 STRATEGIC APPLICATIONS
Mean Reversion Strategy (Range-Bound Markets):
Identify ranging market conditions using price action or Bollinger Bands
Wait for Stochastic to reach extreme zones (above 80 for overbought, below 20 for oversold)
Enter counter-trend position when %K crosses %D in extreme zone (sell on bearish cross above 80, buy on bullish cross below 20)
Set profit targets near opposite extreme or midline (50 level)
Use tight stop-loss above recent swing high/low to protect against breakout scenarios
Exit when Stochastic reaches opposite extreme or %K crosses %D in opposite direction
Trend Following with Momentum Confirmation:
Identify primary trend direction using higher timeframe analysis or moving averages
Wait for Stochastic pullback to oversold zone (<20) in uptrend or overbought zone (>80) in downtrend
Enter in trend direction when %K crosses %D confirming momentum shift (bullish cross in uptrend, bearish cross in downtrend)
Use wider stops to accommodate normal trend volatility
Add to position on subsequent pullbacks showing similar Stochastic pattern
Exit when Stochastic shows opposite extreme with failed cross or bearish/bullish divergence
Divergence-Based Reversal Strategy:
Scan for divergence between price and Stochastic at swing highs/lows
Confirm divergence with at least two price pivots showing divergent Stochastic readings
Wait for %K to cross %D in direction of anticipated reversal as entry trigger
Enter position in divergence direction with stop beyond recent swing extreme
Target profit at key support/resistance levels or Fibonacci retracements
Scale out as Stochastic reaches opposite extreme zone
Multi-Timeframe Momentum Alignment:
Analyze Stochastic on higher timeframe (4H or Daily) for primary trend bias
Switch to lower timeframe (1H or 15M) for precise entry timing
Only take trades where lower timeframe Stochastic signal aligns with higher timeframe momentum direction
Higher timeframe Stochastic in bullish zone (>50) = only take long entries on lower timeframe
Higher timeframe Stochastic in bearish zone (<50) = only take short entries on lower timeframe
Exit when lower timeframe shows counter-signal or higher timeframe momentum reverses
Zone Transition Strategy:
Monitor Stochastic for transitions between zones (oversold to neutral, neutral to overbought, etc.)
Enter long when Stochastic crosses above 20 (exiting oversold), signaling momentum shift from bearish to neutral/bullish
Enter short when Stochastic crosses below 80 (exiting overbought), signaling momentum shift from bullish to neutral/bearish
Use zone midpoint (50) as dynamic support/resistance for position management
Trail stops as Stochastic advances through favorable zones
Exit when Stochastic fails to maintain momentum and reverses back into prior zone
📋 DETAILED PARAMETER CONFIGURATION

📈 PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS & COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
Responsiveness Characteristics:
Traditional SMA-Based Stochastic:
Fixed lag regardless of market conditions, consistent delay of approximately (K Smoothing + D Smoothing) / 2 periods
Equal treatment of trending and ranging markets, no adaptation to volatility changes
Predictable behavior but suboptimal in varying market regimes
Enhanced Version with Adaptive Algorithms:
KAMA and FRAMA reduce lag by up to 40-60% in strong trends compared to SMA while maintaining similar smoothness in ranges
ZLEMA and T3 provide near-zero lag characteristics for early entry signals with acceptable noise levels
Kalman Filter and Super Smoother offer superior noise rejection, reducing false signals in choppy conditions by estimations of 30-50% compared to SMA
Performance improvements vary by algorithm selection and market conditions
Signal Quality Improvements:
Adaptive algorithms help reduce whipsaw trades in ranging markets by adjusting sensitivity dynamically
Advanced filters (Kalman, Laguerre, Super Smoother) provide clearer extreme zone readings for mean reversion strategies
Zero-lag methods (ZLEMA, DEMA, TEMA) generate earlier crossover signals in trending markets for improved entry timing
Smoother algorithms (T3, Laguerre Binomial) reduce false extreme zone touches for more reliable overbought/oversold signals
Comparison with Standard Implementations:
Versus Basic Stochastic: Enhanced version offers 21 smoothing options versus single SMA, allowing optimization for specific market characteristics and trading styles
Versus RSI: Stochastic provides range-bound measurement (0-100) with clear extreme zones, RSI measures momentum speed, Stochastic offers clearer visual overbought/oversold identification
Versus MACD: Stochastic bounded oscillator suitable for mean reversion, MACD unbounded indicator better for trend strength, Stochastic excels in range-bound and oscillating markets
Versus CCI: Stochastic has fixed bounds (0-100) for consistent interpretation, CCI unbounded with variable extremes, Stochastic provides more standardized extreme readings across different instruments
Flexibility Advantages:
Single indicator adaptable to multiple strategies through algorithm selection rather than requiring different indicator variants
Ability to optimize smoothing characteristics for specific instruments (e.g., smoother for crypto volatility, faster for forex trends)
Multi-timeframe analysis with consistent algorithm across timeframes for coherent momentum picture
Backtesting capability with algorithm as optimization parameter for strategy development
Limitations and Considerations:
Increased complexity from multiple algorithm choices may lead to over-optimization if parameters are curve-fitted to historical data
Adaptive algorithms (KAMA, FRAMA) have adjustment periods during market regime changes where signals may be less reliable
Zero-lag algorithms sacrifice some smoothness for responsiveness, potentially increasing noise sensitivity in very choppy conditions
Performance characteristics vary significantly across algorithms, requiring understanding and testing before live implementation
Like all oscillators, Stochastic can remain in extreme zones for extended periods during strong trends, generating premature reversal signals
USAGE NOTES
This indicator is designed for technical analysis and educational purposes to provide traders with enhanced flexibility in momentum analysis. The Stochastic Oscillator has limitations and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions.
Important Considerations:
Algorithm performance varies with market conditions - no single smoothing method is optimal for all scenarios
Extreme zone signals (overbought/oversold) indicate potential reversal areas but not guaranteed turning points, especially in strong trends
Crossover signals may generate false entries during sideways choppy markets regardless of smoothing algorithm
Divergence patterns require confirmation from price action or additional indicators before trading
Past indicator characteristics and backtested results do not guarantee future performance
Always combine Stochastic analysis with proper risk management, position sizing, and multi-indicator confirmation
Test selected algorithm on historical data of specific instrument and timeframe before live trading
Market regime changes may require algorithm adjustment for optimal performance
The enhanced smoothing options are intended to provide tools for optimizing the indicator's behavior to match individual trading styles and market characteristics, not to create a perfect predictive tool. Responsible usage includes understanding the mathematical properties of selected algorithms and their appropriate application contexts.
TwinPulse Q Lead SPY x QQQ Intermarket Pulse 1HTwinPulse Q Lead is a concise one hour indicator for SPY and QQQ that converts three sources of market information into a single pulse line, a mode readout with BUY SELL WAIT, and compact alerts. It blends intermarket leadership between QQQ and SPY, intraday flow from the slope of session VWAP, and where the current price sits inside the regular trading hours range. The three components are normalized, fused, compressed to a stable range, and smoothed for clear thresholds. The aim is a readable intraday regime signal that helps you decide when to participate and when to stand aside.
The script is built with Pine v6, uses request security with lookahead off, and does not repaint. It is an indicator, not a strategy. It does not contain any solicitation, links, or outside references. The description is self contained and explains both logic and use so that any trader can understand the design without reading code.
What makes this original and useful
Intermarket leadership is measured directly from QQQ and SPY on your working timeframe using a Z score of the return spread. When growth is leading value heavy large caps, leadership turns positive. When it lags, leadership turns negative. This gives a real time read of the Nasdaq versus S and P tug of war that most day traders watch informally.
Intraday flow is taken from the slope of the session VWAP. A linear regression of VWAP over a short window captures whether value is rising or falling inside the day. Dividing by ATR normalizes slope by typical movement so that the signal is comparable across weeks.
Session position places price inside the current regular hours high to low. It answers whether the day is trading in the top half, the bottom half, or the middle. This is a simple but powerful context filter for breakouts and fades.
The three components are fused into one pulse, compressed with either hyperbolic tangent or softsign to keep values bounded, and then smoothed by a short EMA. This yields a stable range with a zero line so the eye can read shifts quickly.
The panel shows a human readable mode with reasons and a strength score. Traders who do not want to read lines can rely on a simple state and a compact justification that explains why the state is set.
This is not a mashup that simply overlays unrelated indicators. Each component was chosen to answer a distinct question that is common to SPY and QQQ intraday decision making. Leadership answers who is in charge, flow answers whether value inside the session is building or leaking, and position answers if price is pressing the extremes or circling the middle. The pulse ties the three together and prevents any single component from dominating.
How the calculations work
Leadership. Compute a short rate of change for SPY and QQQ. Subtract SPY from QQQ to get spread returns, then compute a rolling Z score over a longer window. Positive values mean QQQ is leading. Negative values mean SPY is leading.
Flow. Compute session VWAP on the active symbol. Regress VWAP over a short window to obtain a slope estimate. Divide by ATR to scale slope by current volatility so that a small rise on a quiet day is not treated the same as a small rise on a wild day.
Position. Track the highest high and lowest low since the start of regular hours. Place the current close inside that range on a zero to one scale, then recenter to a minus one to plus one scale. Positive means the top half of the day, negative means the bottom half.
Fusion. Multiply each component by a weight so users can emphasize or de emphasize leadership, flow, or position. Sum to a raw pulse.
Compression. Pass the raw pulse through a bounded function. Hyperbolic tangent is smooth and has natural saturation near the extremes. Softsign is faster and behaves like a smoother version of sign near zero. Compression avoids unbounded excursions and makes thresholds meaningful across days.
Smoothing. Apply a short EMA to the compressed pulse to reduce noise. This creates the main line called TwinPulse in the plot.
Thresholds. You can use static symmetric levels or adaptive levels. The adaptive option computes a mean and a standard deviation of the smoothed pulse over a user window, then sets upper and lower thresholds as mean plus or minus sigma times standard deviation. This allows thresholds to adjust across regimes. Static levels are still available for traders who want repeatable levels.
Events and mode. A long event fires when the smoothed pulse crosses the upper threshold with positive flow and any optional filters agree. A short event fires on the symmetric condition. The mode reads the current state rather than fire and forget. It returns BUY when the smoothed pulse is above the upper threshold with positive flow, SELL when the smoothed pulse is below the lower threshold with negative flow, otherwise WAIT. A cooldown controls how often events can fire so alerts do not spam during choppy periods.
Inputs and default values
The script ships with defaults chosen for SPY and QQQ on one hour charts.
Symbols. SPY and QQQ by default. You can switch to any pair. Many users may test IWM versus SPY for small cap reads.
Regular hours selector. On by default. This restricts the position factor to New York regular hours. Turn it off if you prefer full session behavior.
ROC length is three bars. Z score length is fifty bars. VWAP slope window is ten bars. ATR length is fourteen bars. Pulse smoothing length is three bars.
Compression mode. Choose hyperbolic tangent or softsign. Hyperbolic tangent is default.
Weights. Leadership and flow are one by default. Position is set to zero point seven to give a modest influence to where price sits inside the day.
Thresholds. Adaptive thresholds are on by default with a lookback of one hundred bars and a sigma width of zero point eight. Static levels at plus or minus zero point six are ready if you disable adaptive mode.
Filters. ADX filter is off by default. If you enable it, the script requires ADX above a user minimum before it will signal. Higher time frame confirmation is off by default. When enabled it compares the smoothed pulse on the confirm timeframe to zero and requires alignment for longs or shorts.
Cooldown. Three bars by default so that alerts do not trigger too frequently.
UI. Bar coloring is on by default. The panel is on by default and sits at the top right.
All request security calls use lookahead off and will not request future data. All persistent state variables are assigned in a way that prevents repainting. The indicator does not use non standard chart types in its logic.
How to use the indicator
Load a one hour chart of SPY or QQQ. Keep a clean chart so that the script output is easy to read.
Turn on regular hours if you want the session position to reflect the cash session. This is recommended for SPY and QQQ.
Watch the panel. Mode reads BUY or SELL or WAIT. The strength value is a simple vote based score that ranges from zero to one hundred. It counts leadership, flow, ADX if enabled, and higher time frame confirmation if enabled. You can use strength to filter weak states.
Consider action only when mode is BUY or SELL and the signal has not just fired on the last bar. The triangles mark where an event fired. Alerts use the same logic as the events. WAIT means stand aside.
To slow the system, enable ADX and set a higher minimum or enable higher time frame confirmation. To speed it up, disable the filters, disable adaptive thresholds, or tighten the sigma width.
When publishing, use a clean chart with only this indicator. Show the symbol and timeframe clearly and make sure the plot legend is visible. If you add drawings on the chart, only include ones that help readers understand the output.
Publication notes and compliance
This description is written in English. The title uses ASCII and only uses capital letters for common abbreviations. The script is original and explains how and why the components work together. There are no links or promotional material. The script does not claim performance. It does not use lookahead. The panel and alerts exist to help a human read and act with discipline. The indicator can be published as open source or as protected. If you choose protected, the description still allows readers to understand how the logic works without access to the code.
If you later convert the logic into a strategy for publication, use realistic commission and slippage, risk no more than a small share of equity per trade, and choose a dataset that yields a large enough sample. Explain any deviations from these default recommendations in your strategy description. Do not publish results from non standard chart types since they can mislead readers on signal timing.
Limitations and risks
Intermarket leadership is a relative measure. There are hours when both SPY and QQQ fall while leadership remains positive. Treat leadership as a context, not a stand alone trigger.
VWAP slope is a path measure inside the session. It can flip several times on a choppy day. That is why the script uses a short smoothing and an optional cooldown. Use ADX or higher time frame confirmation to avoid the worst chop.
Session position assumes a meaningful regular hours range. On half days or around openings with gaps the position factor can be less informative. If this bothers you, reduce the weight of position or turn it off.
Compression and smoothing introduce lag by design. The goal is stability and clarity. If you want earlier but noisier signals, reduce smoothing and weights, and use static thresholds.
No indicator guarantees future results. TwinPulse Q Lead is a decision aid. It should be combined with your risk rules, position size policy, and a clear exit plan. Past behavior is not a promise for the future.
Frequently asked questions
What symbols are supported. Any symbol can be used as the chart symbol. Leadership uses the two user symbols which default to SPY and QQQ. Many traders may try IWM versus SPY or DIA versus SPY.
Can I change the timeframe. Yes, but the design target is one hour. On very short timeframes the VWAP slope becomes very sensitive and you should consider stronger filters.
Does the script repaint. No. It uses request security with lookahead off and the panel updates on the last bar only. Events are based on bar close conditions unless you attach alerts on any alert function call which will still respect the logic without looking into the future.
How are the strength numbers built. The strength score is the share of aligned votes across leadership, flow, ADX if enabled, and higher time frame confirmation if enabled. A value near one hundred means many filters agree. A value near fifty means partial alignment. It is not a probability or an accuracy number.
Can I use non standard chart types. You can view the indicator on them but do not publish signals from non standard chart types because that can mislead readers about timing. Use classic candles or bars when you publish and when you test.
Why do I sometimes see BUY but the price is not moving. A BUY mode requires pulse above the upper threshold and positive flow. It does not require higher highs immediately. Treat BUY as a permission to look for entries using your own execution rules.
Session-Conditioned Regime ATRWhy this exists
Classic ATR is great—until the open. The first few bars often inherit overnight gaps and 24-hour noise that have nothing to do with the intraday regime you actually trade. That inflates early ATR, scrambles thresholds, and invites hyper-recency bias (“today is crazy!”) when it’s just the open being the open.
This tool was built to:
Separate session reality from 24h noise. Measure volatility only inside your defined session (e.g., NYSE 09:30–16:00 ET).
Judge candles against the current regime, not the last 2–3 bars. A rolling statistic from the last N completed sessions defines what “typical” means right now.
Label “large” and “small” objectively. Bars are colored only when True Range meaningfully departs from the session regime—no gut feel, no open-bar distortion (gap inclusion optional).
Overview
Purpose: objectively identify unusually big or small candles within the active trading session, compared to the recent session regime.
Use cases: volatility filters, entry/exit confirmation, session bias detection, adaptive sizing.
This indicator replaces generic ATR with a session-conditioned, regime-aware measure. It colors candles only when their True Range (TR) is abnormally large/small versus the last N completed sessions of the same session window.
How it works
Session gating: Only bars inside the selected session are evaluated (presets for NYSE, CME RTH, FX NY; custom supported).
Per-bar TR: TR = max(high, prevRef) − min(low, prevRef).
prevRef is the prior close for in-session bars.
First bar of the session can include the overnight gap (optional; default off).
Regime statistic: For any bar in session k, aggregate all in-session TRs from the previous N completed sessions (k−N … k−1), then compute Median (default) or Mean.
Today’s anchor: Running statistic from today’s session start → current bar (for context and the on-chart ratio).
Color logic:
Big if TR ≥ bigMult × RegimeStat
Small if TR ≤ smallMult × RegimeStat
Colored states: big bull, big bear, small bull, small bear.
Non-triggering bars retain the chart’s native colors.
Panel (top-right by default)
Regime ATR (Nd): session-conditioned statistic over the past N completed sessions.
Today ATR (anchored): running statistic for the current session.
Ratio (Today/Regime): intraday volatility vs regime.
Sample size n: number of bars used in the regime calculation.
Inputs
Session Preset: NYSE (09:30–16:00 ET), CME RTH (08:30–15:00 CT), FX NY (08:00–17:00 ET), Custom (session + IANA timezone).
Regime Window: number of completed sessions (default 5).
Statistic: Median (robust) or Mean.
Include Open Gap: include overnight gap in the first in-session bar’s TR (default off).
Big/Small thresholds: multipliers relative to RegimeStat (defaults: Big=1.5×, Small=0.67×).
Colors: four independent colors for big/small × bull/bear.
Panel position & text size.
Hidden outputs: expose RegimeStat, TodayStat, Ratio, and Z-score to other scripts.
Alerts
RegimeATR: BIG bar — triggers when a bar meets the “Big” condition.
RegimeATR: SMALL bar — triggers when a bar meets the “Small” condition.
Hidden outputs (for strategies/screeners)
RegimeATR_stat, TodayATR_stat, Today_vs_Regime_Ratio, BarTR_Zscore.
Notes & limitations
No look-ahead: calculations only use information available up to that bar. Historical colors reflect what would have been known then.
Warm-up: colors begin once there are at least N completed sessions; before that, regime is undefined by design.
Changing inputs (session window, multipliers, median/mean, gap toggle) recomputes the full series using the same rolling regime logic per bar.
Designed for standard candles. Styling respects existing chart colors when no condition triggers.
Practical tips
For a broader or tighter notion of “unusual,” adjust Big/Small multipliers.
Prefer Median in markets prone to outliers; use Mean if you want Z-score alignment with the panel’s regime mean/std.
Use the Ratio readout to spot compression/expansion days quickly (e.g., <0.7× = compressed session, >1.3× = expanded).
Roadmap
More session presets:
24h continuous (crypto, index CFDs).
23h/Globex futures (CME ETH with a 60-minute maintenance break).

Robust stats options: trimmed mean, MAD/Huber alternatives; optional percentile thresholds instead of fixed multipliers.
Subpanel visuals: rolling TodayATR and Ratio plots; optional Z-score ribbon.
Screener/strategy hooks: export boolean series for BIG/SMALL, plus a lightweight strategy template for backtesting entries/exits conditioned on regime volatility.

ADX - Globx Options & Futures 2.0The ADX Globx Options & Futures is a custom-built trend strength indicator designed to replicate and enhance the classic Average Directional Index (ADX) model, commonly used in professional trading platforms such as IQ Option.
This version is optimized for options and futures trading, providing precise directional strength readings through adaptive smoothing and configurable parameters.
Concept and Logic
This indicator measures the strength of the current trend, regardless of its direction (bullish or bearish), by comparing directional movement between price highs and lows over a defined period.
It uses three main components:
+DI (Positive Directional Indicator): represents bullish strength.
–DI (Negative Directional Indicator): represents bearish strength.
ADX (Average Directional Index): measures the intensity of the prevailing trend, independent of direction.
The script follows the original logic proposed by J. Welles Wilder Jr., but introduces enhanced smoothing flexibility.
Users can choose between EMA (Exponential Moving Average) and Wilder’s RMA (Running Moving Average) for both DI and ADX calculations, allowing closer alignment with various platform implementations (IQ Option, MetaTrader, etc.).
How It Works
Directional Movement Calculation
The script computes upward and downward movements (+DM and –DM) by comparing the differences in highs and lows between consecutive candles.
Only positive directional changes that exceed the opposite side are considered.
This ensures each bar contributes only one valid directional movement.
True Range and Smoothing
The True Range (TR) is calculated using ta.tr(true) to include price gaps—replicating how professional derivatives platforms account for volatility jumps.
Both TR and DM values are smoothed using the selected averaging method (EMA or Wilder).
Directional Index and ADX
The smoothed +DI and –DI values are normalized over the True Range to form the Directional Index (DX), which measures the percentage difference between the two.
The ADX is then derived by smoothing the DX values, providing a stable reading of overall market strength.
Visual Representation
The ADX (white line) indicates the overall trend strength.
The +DI (dark blue) and –DI (dark red) lines show which side (bullish or bearish) is currently dominant.
Reference levels at 20 and 25 serve as strength thresholds:
Below 20 → Weak or sideways market.
Above 25 → Strong and directional trend.
Usage and Interpretation
When ADX rises above 25, the market shows a strong trend — use +DI > –DI for bullish confirmation, or the opposite for bearish momentum.
A falling ADX suggests decreasing trend strength and potential consolidation.
The default parameters (ADX Length = 34, DI Length = 34, both smoothed by EMA) match IQ Option’s internal ADX configuration, ensuring consistency between platforms.
Works on any timeframe or asset class, but is especially tuned for futures and options volatility dynamics.
Originality and Improvements
Unlike many open-source ADX indicators, this version:
Recreates IQ Option’s 34-length EMA-based ADX calculation with exact parameter alignment.
Provides selectable smoothing algorithms (EMA or Wilder) to switch between modern and classic formulations.
Uses dark-theme-optimized visuals with fine line weight and subtle contrast for clean visibility.
Maintains constant guide levels (20/25) rendered globally for precision and style compliance in Pine Script v6.
Is fully rewritten for Pine Script v6, ensuring compatibility and optimized execution.
Recommended Use
Combine with trend-following systems or breakout strategies.
Ideal for identifying market strength before engaging in options directionals or futures entries.
Use the ADX to confirm breakout momentum or filter sideways markets.

CVD Pro – Smart Overlay + Signals (with Persist Mode)What this Indicator Does
CVD Pro visualizes Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) data directly on your main price chart — helping you detect real buying vs. selling pressure in real time.
Unlike most CVD scripts that run in a separate subwindow, this one overlays price-mapped CVD curves on the candles themselves for better confluence with market structure and FVG zones.
The script dynamically scales normalized CVD values to the price range and uses adaptive smoothing and deviation bands to highlight shifts in trader behavior.
It also includes automatic bullish/bearish crossover signals, displayed as on-chart labels.
⚙️ Main Features
✅ Price-mapped CVD Overlay
CVD is normalized (Z-score) and projected onto the price chart for easy visual correlation with price structure.
✅ Multi-Timeframe Presets
Three sensitivity presets optimized for different chart environments:
Strict (4H) → Best for macro trends and high-timeframe structure.
Balanced (1H / 30m) → Great for active swing setups.
Sensitive (15m) → Captures short-term intraday reversals.
✅ Dynamic Bands & Smoothing
Deviation bands visualize statistical extremes in delta pressure — helping to identify exhaustion and divergence points.
✅ Smart Buy/Sell Signal Logic
Automatic label triggers when the CVD Overlay crosses its smoothed baseline:
🟢 BULL LONG → Rising CVD above the mean (buyers in control).
🔴 BEAR SHORT → Falling CVD below the mean (sellers in control).
✅ Persist Mode
Toggle to keep the last signal visible until a new one forms — ideal for traders who prefer clean chart annotations without noise.
✅ Clean, Minimal Overlay
Everything happens directly on your chart — no extra windows, no clutter. Designed for use with Smart Money Concepts, Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), or volume imbalance setups.
🧩 Use Case
CVD Pro is designed for traders who:
Use Smart Money Concepts (SMC) or ICT-style trading
Watch for FVG reactions, breaker blocks, and liquidity sweeps
Need to confirm order flow direction or momentum strength
Trade intraday or swing setups with precision entries and clear bias confirmation
⚡ Recommended Settings
4H / 1H: Use Strict mode for major structure and confirmation.
1H / 30m: Balanced mode for clear mid-term trend alignment.
15m: Sensitive mode to catch scalps and lower-TF shifts.
🧠 Pro Tips
Combine with RSI or Market Structure Breaks (MSS) for additional confluence.
A strong CVD divergence near a key FVG or 0.5–0.705 Fibonacci zone often signals reversal.
Persistent CVD crossover + price structure break = high-probability entry.

Would you like me to write a shorter “public summary” paragraph (for the short description at the top of TradingView, the one-liner users see before expanding)?
It’s usually a 2–3 sentence hook like:
“Overlay-based CVD indicator that merges volume delta with price structure. Detect true buying/selling pressure using adaptive normalization, deviation bands, and clean bullish/bearish crossover signals.”
No Supply (Low-Volume Down Bars) — IdoThis indicator flags classic Wyckoff/VSA “No Supply (NS)” events—down bars that print on unusually low volume, suggesting a lack of sellers rather than strong selling pressure. NS often appears near support, LPS, or within re-accumulation ranges as a test before continuation higher.
Signal definition (configurable):
Down bar: choose Close < PrevClose or Close < Open.
Low volume: Volume < SMA(Volume, len) × threshold (e.g., 0.7).
Optional volume lower than the prior two bars (reduces noise).
Optional narrow spread: range (H–L) below its average.
Optional close position: close in the upper half of the bar.
Optional trend filter: only mark NS above or below an EMA (or any).
Optional wide-bar exclusion: skip unusually wide bars.
Visuals & outputs
Blue dot below each NS bar (optional bar tint).
Separate pane showing Relative Volume (vol / volSMA) to gauge effort.
Built-in alertcondition to trigger notifications when NS prints.
Inputs (high level)
lenVol: Volume SMA length.
ratioVol: Volume threshold vs. average (e.g., 0.7 = 70%).
usePrev2: Require volume below each of the prior two bars.
useNarrow + lenRange + ratioRange: Narrow-bar filter.
useClosePos + minClosePos: Close in upper portion of the bar.
downBarMode: Define “down bar” logic.
trendFiltOn, trendLen, trendSide: EMA trend filter.
useWideFilter, lenRangeWide, wideThreshold: Skip wide bars.
How to use (Wyckoff/VSA context)
Treat NS as a test of supply: price dips, but volume is light and close holds up.
Stronger when it prints near support/LPS within a re-accumulation structure.
Confirmation (recommended): within 1–3 bars, see demand—e.g., break above the NS high with expanding volume (above average or above the prior two bars). Many traders place a buy-stop just above the NS high; common stops are below the NS low or the most recent swing low.
Scanning tip
TradingView’s stock screener can’t consume Pine directly.
Use a Watchlist Custom Column that reports “bars since NS” to sort symbols (0 = NS on the latest bar). A companion column script is provided separately.
Notes & limitations
Works on any timeframe (intraday/daily/weekly), but context matters.
Expect false positives around news, gaps, or illiquid symbols—combine with structure (trend, S/R, phases) and risk management.

ORB 5 Minute w/FVG and Retracement Breakout strategy creates five minute breakout lines on the 1 minute chart. Highlights any fair value gaps created within ORB and creates an arrow showing when a candle retraces into the fvg.
3/4-Bar GRG / RGR Pattern (Conditional 4th Candle)This indicator can be used to identify the Green-Red-Green or Red-Green-Red pattern.
It is a price action indicator where a price action which identifies the defeat of buyers and sellers.
If the buyers comprehensively defeat the sellers then the price moves up and if the sellers defeat the buyers then the price moves down.
In my trading experience this is what defines the price movement.
It is a 3 or 4 candle pattern, beyond that i.e, 5 or more candles could mean a very sideways market and unnecessary signal generation.
How does it work?
Upside/Green signal
Say candle 1 is Green, which means buyers stepped in, then candle 2 is Red or a Doji, that means sellers brought the price down. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Green and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle, then a green arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
Here the buyers defeated the sellers.
Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
Important - We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves above the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close. Ignore wicks.
I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
I call it the +-+ or GRG pattern.
Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders (that includes me) or candle 2's body low for risky traders.
Back testing suggests that body low will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Downside/Red signal
Say candle 1 is Red, which means sellers stepped in, then candle 2 is Green or a Doji, that means buyers took the price up. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Red and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle then a Red arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves below the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close.
I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
I call it the -+- or RGR pattern.
Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders ( that includes me) or candle 2's body high for risky traders.
Back testing suggests that body high will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Important Settings
You can enable or disable the 4th candle signal to avoid the noise, but at times I have noticed that the 4th candle gives a very strong signal or I can say that the strong signal falls on the 4th candle. This is mostly a coincidence.
You can also configure how many previous bars should the signal be generated for. 10 to 30 is good enough. To backtest increase it to 2000 or 5000 for example.
Rest are self explanatory.
Pointers
If after taking the trade, the next candle moves in your direction and closes strong bullish or bearish, then move SL to break even and after that you can trail it.
If a upside trade hits SL and immediately a down side trade signal is generated on the next candle then take it. Vice versa is true.
Trades need to be taken on previous 2 candle's body high or low combined and not the wicks.
The most losses a trader takes is on a sideways day and because in our strategy the stop loss is so small that even on a sideways day we'll get out with a little profit or worst break even.
Hold targets for longer targets and don't panic.
If last 3-4 days have been sideways then there is a good probability that day will be trending so we can hold our trade for longer targets. Target to hold the trade for whole day and not exit till the day closes.
In general avoid trading in the middle of the day for index and stocks. Divide the day into 3 parts and avoid the middle.
Use Support/Resistance, 10, 20, 50, 200 EMA/SMA, Gaps, Whole/Round numbers(very imp) for identifying targets.
Trail your SL.
For indexes I would use 5 min and 15 min timeframe.
For commodities and crypto we can use higher timeframe as well. Look for signals during volatile time durations and avoid trading the whole day. Signal usually gives good targets on those times.
If a GRG or RGR pattern appears on a daily timeframe then this is our time to go big.
Minimum Risk to Reward should be 1:2 and for longer targets can be 1:4 to 1:10.
Trade with small lot size. Money management will happen automatically.
With small lot size and correct Risk-Re ward we can be very profitable. Don't trade with big lot size.
Stay in the market for longer and collect points not money.
Very imp - Watch market and learn to generate a market view.
Very imp - Only 4 candles are needed in trading - strong bullish, strong bearish, hammer, inverse hammer and doji.
Go big on bearish days for option traders. Puts are better bought and Calls are better sold.
Cluster of green signals can lead to bigger move on the upside and vice versa for red signals.
Most of this is what I learned from successful traders (from the top 2%) only the indicator is mine.
Opening Range Gaps [TakingProphets]What is an Opening Range Gap (ORG)?
In ICT, the Opening Range Gap is defined as the price difference between the previous session’s close (e.g., 4:00 PM EST in U.S. indices) and the current day’s open (9:30 AM EST).
That gap is a liquidity void—an area where no trading occurred during regular hours.
Why ICT Traders Care About ORG
Liquidity Void (Gap Fill Logic)
-Because the gap is an untraded area, it naturally acts as a draw on liquidity.
-Price often seeks to rebalance by retracing into or fully filling this void.
Premium/Discount Sensitivity
-Once the ORG is defined, ICT treats it as a mini dealing range.
-Above EQ (Consequent Encroachment) = algorithmic premium (sell-sensitive).
-Below EQ = algorithmic discount (buy-sensitive).
-Price reaction at these levels gives a precise read on institutional intent intraday.
Support/Resistance from ORG
-If the session opens above prior close, the gap often acts as support until violated.
-If the session opens below prior close, the gap often acts as resistance until reclaimed.
Key ICT Concepts Anchored to ORG
Consequent Encroachment (CE): The midpoint of the gap. The algo is highly sensitive to CE as a decision point: reject → continuation; reclaim → reversal.
Draw on Liquidity (DoL): Price is algorithmically “pulled” toward gap fills, CE, or the opposite side of the ORG.
Order Flow Confirmation: If price ignores the gap and runs away from it, this signals strong institutional order flow in that direction.
Confluence with Other Tools: FVGs, OBs, and HTF PD arrays often overlap with ORG levels, strengthening setups.
Practical Application for Traders
Bias Formation:
Use ORG EQ as a line in the sand for intraday bias.
If price trades below ORG EQ after the open → look for short setups into the prior day’s low or external liquidity.
If price trades above ORG EQ → favor longs into highs/liquidity pools.
Execution Framework:
Wait for liquidity raids or market structure shifts at ORG edges (.00, .25, .50, .75).
Target: EQ, opposite quarter, or full gap fill.
Precision Reads:
ORG lines let traders anticipate where algorithms are likely to respond, providing mechanical invalidation and clear targets without clutter.
Hour/Day/Month Optimizer [CHE] Hour/Day/Month Optimizer — Bucketed seasonality ranking for hours, weekdays, and months with additive or compounded returns, win rate, simple Sharpe proxy, and trade counts
Summary
This indicator profiles time-of-day, day-of-week, and month-of-year behavior by assigning every bar to a bucket and accumulating its return into that bucket. It reports per-bucket score (additive or compounded), win rate, a dispersion-aware return proxy, and trade counts, then ranks buckets and highlights the current one if it is best or worst. A compact on-chart table shows the top buckets or the full ranking; a last-bar label summarizes best and worst. Optional hour filtering and UTC shifting let you align buckets with your trading session rather than exchange time.
Motivation: Why this design?
Traders often see repetitive timing effects but struggle to separate genuine seasonality from noise. Static averages are easily distorted by sample size, compounding, or volatility spikes. The core idea here is simple, explicit bucket aggregation with user-controlled accumulation (sum or compound) and transparent quality metrics (win rate, a dispersion-aware proxy, and counts). The result is a practical, legible seasonality surface that can be used for scheduling and filtering rather than prediction.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline: Simple heatmaps or average-return tables that ignore compounding, dispersion, or sample size.
Architecture differences:
Dual aggregation modes: additive sum of bar returns or compounded factor.
Per-bucket win rate and trade count to expose sample support.
A simple dispersion-aware return proxy to penalize unstable averages.
UTC offset and optional custom hour window.
Deterministic, closed-bar rendering via a lightweight on-chart table.
Practical effect: You see not only which buckets look strong but also whether the observation is supported by enough bars and whether stability is acceptable. The background tint and last-bar label give immediate context for the current bucket.
How it works (technical)
Each bar is assigned to a bucket based on the selected dimension (hour one to twenty-four, weekday one to seven, or month one to twelve) after applying the UTC shift. An optional hour filter can exclude bars outside a chosen window. For each bucket the script accumulates either the sum of simple returns or the compounded product of bar factors. It also counts bars and wins, where a win is any bar with a non-negative return. From these, it derives:
Score: additive total or compounded total minus the neutral baseline.
Win rate: wins as a percentage of bars in the bucket.
Dispersion-aware proxy (“Sharpe” column): a crude ratio that rises when average return improves and falls when variability increases.
Buckets are sorted by a user-selected key (score, win rate, dispersion proxy, or trade count). The current bar’s bucket is tinted if it matches the global best or worst. At the last bar, a table is drawn with headers, an optional info row, and either the top three or all rows, using zebra backgrounds and color-coding (lime for best, red for worst). Rendering is last-bar only; no higher-timeframe data is requested, and no future data is referenced.
Parameter Guide
UTC Offset (hours) — Shifts bucket assignment relative to exchange time. Default: zero. Tip: Align to your local or desk session.
Use Custom Hours — Enables a local session window. Default: off. Trade-off: Reduces noise outside your active hours but lowers sample size.
Start / End — Inclusive hour window one to twenty-four. Defaults: eight to seventeen. Tip: Widen if rankings look unstable.
Aggregation — “Additive” sums bar returns; “Multiplicative” compounds them. Default: Additive. Tip: Use compounded for long-horizon bias checks.
Dimension — Bucket by Hour, Day, or Month. Default: Hour. Tip: Start Hour for intraday planning; switch to Day or Month for scheduling.
Show — “Top Three” or “All”. Default: Top Three. Trade-off: Clarity vs. completeness.
Sort By — Score, Win Rate, Sharpe, or Trades. Default: Score. Tip: Use Trades to surface stable buckets; use Win Rate for skew awareness.
X / Y — Table anchor. Defaults: right / top. Tip: Move away from price clusters.
Text — Table text size. Default: normal.
Light Mode — Light palette for bright charts. Default: off.
Show Parameters Row — Info header with dimension and span. Default: on.
Highlight Current Bucket if Best/Worst — Background tint when current bucket matches extremes. Default: on.
Best/Worst Barcolor — Tint colors. Defaults: lime / red.
Mark Best/Worst on Last Bar — Summary label on the last bar. Default: on.
Reading & Interpretation
Score column: Higher suggests stronger cumulative behavior for the chosen aggregation. Compounded mode emphasizes persistence; additive mode treats all bars equally.
Win Rate: Stability signal; very high with very low trades is unreliable.
“Sharpe” column: A quick stability proxy; use it to down-rank buckets that look good on score but fluctuate heavily.
Trades: Sample size. Prefer buckets with adequate counts for your timeframe and asset.
Tinting: If the current bucket is globally best, expect a lime background; if worst, red. This is context, not a trade signal.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Use Hour or Day to avoid initiating trades during historically weak buckets; require structure confirmation such as higher highs and higher lows, plus a momentum or volatility filter.
Mean reversion: Prefer buckets with moderate scores but acceptable win rate and dispersion proxy; combine with deviation bands or volume normalization.
Exits/Stops: Tighten exits during historically weak buckets; relax slightly during strong ones, but keep absolute risk controls independent of the table.
Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Start with Hour on liquid intraday assets; for swing, use Day. On monthly seasonality, require larger lookbacks to avoid overfitting.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint/confirmation: Calculations use completed bars only; table and label are drawn on the last bar and can update intrabar until close.
security()/HTF: None used; repaint risk limited to normal live-bar updates.
Resources: Arrays per dimension, light loops for metric building and sorting, `max_bars_back` two thousand, and capped label/table counts.

Predicted Funding RatesOverview
The Predicted Funding Rates indicator calculates real-time funding rate estimates for perpetual futures contracts on Binance. It uses triangular weighting algorithms on multiple different timeframes to ensure an accurate prediction.
Funding rates are periodic payments between long and short position holders in perpetual futures markets
If positive, longs pay shorts (usually bullish)
If negative, shorts pay longs (usually bearish)
This is a prediction. Actual funding rates depend on the instantaneous premium index, derived from bid/ask impacts of futures. So whilst it may imitate it similarly, it won't be completely accurate.
This only applies currently to Binance funding rates, as HyperLiquid premium data isn't available. Other Exchanges may be added if their premium data is uploaded.
Methods
Method 1: Collects premium 1-minunute data using triangular weighing over 8 hours. This granular method fills in predicted funding for 4h and less recent data
Method 2: Multi-time frame approach. Daily uses 1 hour data in the calculation, 4h + timeframes use 15M data. This dynamic method fills in higher timeframes and parts where there's unavailable premium data on the 1min.
How it works
1) Premium data is collected across multiple timeframes (depending on the timeframe)
2) Triangular weighing is applied to emphasize recent data points linearly
Tri_Weighing = (data *1 + data *2 + data *3 + data *4) / (1+2+3+4)
3) Finally, the funding rate is calculated
FundingRate = Premium + clamp(interest rate - Premium, -0.05, 0.05)
where the interest rate is 0.01% as per Binance
Triangular weighting is calculated on collected premium data, where recent data receives progressively higher weight (1, 2, 3, 4...). This linear weighting scheme provides responsiveness to recent market conditions while maintaining stability, similar to an exponential moving average but with predictable, linear characteristics

Weights: 1 2 3 4 5
Importance: ▂ ▃ ▅ ▆ █
How to use it
For futures traders:
If funding is trending up, the market can be interpreted as being in a bull market
If trending down, the market can be interpreted as being in a bear market
Even used simply, it allows you to gauge roughly how well the market is performing per funding. It can basically be gauged as a sentiment indicator too
For funding rate traders:
If funding is up, it can indicate a long on implied APR values
If funding is down, it can indicate a short on implied APR values
It also includes an underlying APR, which is the annualized funding rate. For Binance, it is current funding * (24/8) * 365
For Position Traders: Monitor predicted funding rates before entering large positions. Extremely high positive rates (>0.05% for 8-hour periods) suggest overleveraged longs and potential reversal risk. Conversely, extreme negative rates indicate shorts dominance
Table:
Funding rate: Gives the predicted funding rate as a percentage
Current premium: Displays the current premium (difference between perpetual futures price and the underlying spot) as a percentage
Funding period: You can choose between 1 hour funding (HyperLiquid usually) and 8 hour funding (Binance)
APR: Underlying annualized funding rate
What makes it original
Whilst some predicted funding scripts exist, some aren't as accurate or have gaps in data. And seeing as funding values are generally missing from TV tickers, this gives traders accessibility to the script when they would have to use other platforms
Notes
Currently only compatible with symbols that have Binance USDT premium indices
Optimal accuracy is found on timeframes that are 4H or less. On higher timeframes, the accuracy drops off
Actual funding rates may differ
Inputs
Funding Period: Choose between "8 Hour" (standard Binance cycle) or "1 Hour" (divides the 8-hour rate by 8 for granular comparison)
Plot Type: Display as "Funding Rate" (percentage per interval) or "APR" (annualized rate calculated as 8-hour rate × 3 × 365)
Table: Toggle the information table showing current funding rate, premium, funding period, and APR in the top-right corner
Positive Colour: Sets the colour for positive funding rates where longs pay shorts (default: #00ffbb turquoise)
Negative Colour: Sets the colour for negative funding rates where shorts pay longs (default: red)
Table Background: Controls the background colour and transparency of the information table (default: transparent dark blue)
Table Text Colour: Sets the colour for all text labels in the information table (default: white)
Table Text Size: Controls font size with options from Tiny to Huge, with Small as the default balance of readability and space
Dynamic Volume Trace Profile [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
Dynamic Volume Trace Profile is a reimagined take on volume profile analysis. Instead of plotting a static horizontal histogram on the side of your chart, this indicator projects dynamic volume trace lines directly onto the price action. Each bin is color-graded according to its relative strength, creating a living “volume skeleton” of the market. The orange trace highlights the current Point of Control (POC)—the price level with maximum historical traded volume within the lookback window. On the right side, the tool builds a mini profile, showing absolute volume per bin alongside its percentage share, where the POC always represents 100% strength .
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Dynamic On-Chart Bins:
The range between highest high and lowest low is split into 25 bins. Each bin is drawn as a horizontal trace line across the lookback chart period.
Gradient Color Encoding:
Trace lines fade from transparent to teal depending on relative volume size. The more intense the teal, the stronger the historical traded activity at that level.
Automatic POC Highlight:
The bin with the highest aggregated volume is flagged with an orange line . This POC adapts bar-by-bar as volume distribution shifts.
Right-Side Volume Profile:
At the chart’s right edge, the script prints a box-style profile. Each bin shows:
• Total volume (absolute units).
• Percentage of max volume, in parentheses (POC bin = 100%).
This gives both raw and normalized context at a glance.
Adjustable Lookback Window:
The lookback defines how many bars feed the profile. Increase for stable HTF zones or decrease for responsive intraday distributions.
POC Toggle & Styling:
Optionally toggle POC highlighting on/off, adjust colors, and set line thickness for better integration with your chart theme.
⯁ HOW IT WORKS (UNDER THE HOOD)
Step Sizing:
over last 100 bars is divided by to calculate bin height.
Volume Aggregation:
For each bar in the , the script checks which bin the close falls into, then adds that bar’s volume to the bin’s counter.
Gradient Mapping:
Bin volume is normalized against the max volume across all bins. That value is mapped onto a gradient from transparent → teal.
POC Logic:
The bin with highest volume is colored orange both on the dynamic trace and in the right-side profile.
Right-Hand Profile:
Boxes are drawn for each bin proportional to volume / maxVolume × 50 units, with text labels showing both absolute volume and normalized %.
⯁ USAGE
Use the orange trace as the dominant “magnet” level—price often gravitates to the POC.
Watch for clusters of strong teal traces as areas of high acceptance; thin or faint zones mark low-liquidity gaps prone to fast moves.
On intraday charts, tighten lookback to reveal session-based distributions . For swing or position trading, expand lookback to surface more durable volume shelves.
Compare the right-side profile % to judge how “top-heavy” or “bottom-heavy” the current distribution is.
Use bright, intense color traces as context for confluence with structure, OBs, or liquidity hunts.
⯁ CONCLUSION
Dynamic Volume Trace Profile takes the traditional volume profile and fuses it into the body of price itself. Instead of a fixed sidebar, you see gradient traces layered directly on the chart, giving real-time context of where volume concentrated and where price may be drawn. With built-in POC highlighting, normalized % readouts, and an adaptive right-side profile, it offers both precision levels and market structure awareness in a cleaner, more intuitive form.
Volume Profile 3D (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Volume Profile 3D (Zeiierman) is a next-generation volume profile that renders market participation as a 3D-style profile directly on your chart. Instead of flat histograms, you get a depth-aware profile with parallax, gradient transparency, and bull/bear separation, so you can see where liquidity stacked up and how it shifted during the move.
Highlights:
3D visual effect with perspective and depth shading for clarity.
Bull/Bear separation to see whether up bars or down bars created the volume.
Flexible colors and gradients that highlight where the most significant trading activity took place.
This is a state-of-the-art volume profile — visually powerful, highly flexible, and unlike anything else available.
█ How It Works
⚪ Profile Construction
The price range (from highest to lowest) is divided into a number of levels (buckets). Each bar’s volume is added to the correct level, based on its average price. This builds a map of where trading volume was concentrated.
You can choose to:
Aggregate all volume at each level, or
Split bullish vs. bearish volume , slightly offset for clarity.
This creates a clear view of which price zones matter most to the market.
⚪ 3D Effect Creation
The unique part of this indicator is how the 3D projection is built. Each volume block’s width is scaled to its relative size, then tilted with a slope factor to create a depth effect.
maxVol = bins.bu.max() + bins.be.max()
width = math.max(1, math.floor(bucketVol / maxVol * ((bar_index - start) * mult)))
slope = -(step * dev) / ((bar_index - start) * (mult/2))
factor = math.pow(math.min(1.0, math.abs(slope) / step), .5)
width → determines how far the volume extends, based on relative strength.
slope → creates the angled projection for the 3D look.
factor → adjusts perspective to make deeper areas shrink naturally.
The result is a 3D-style volume profile where large areas pop forward and smaller areas fade back, giving you immediate visual context.
█ How to Use
⚪ Support & Resistance Zones (HVNs and Value Area)
Regions where a lot of volume traded tend to act like walls:
If price approaches a high-volume area from above, it may act as support.
From below, it may act as resistance.
Traders often enter or exit near these zones because they represent strong agreement among market participants.
⚪ POC Rejections & Mean Reversions
The Point of Control (POC) is the single price level with the highest volume in the profile.
When price returns to the POC and rejects it, that’s often a signal for reversal trades.
In ranging markets, price may bounce between edges of the Value Area and revert to POC.
⚪ Breakouts via Low-Volume Zones (LVNs)
Low volume areas (gaps in the profile) offer path of least resistance:
Price often moves quickly through these thin zones when momentum builds.
Use them to spot breakouts or continuation trades.
⚪ Directional Insight
Use the bull/bear separation to see whether buyers or sellers dominated at key levels.
█ Settings
Use Active Chart – Profile updates with visible candles.
Custom Period – Fixed number of bars.
Up/Down – Adjust tilt for the 3D angle.
Left/Right – Scale width of the profile.
Aggregated – Merge bull/bear volume.

RXTrend█ OVERVIEW
The "RXTrend" indicator is a technical analysis tool based on a unique approach to trend identification using RSI values from overbought and oversold zones. Designed for traders seeking a precise tool to identify key market levels and trend direction, the indicator offers flexible settings, dynamic trend lines, candlestick coloring, and buy/sell signals, supported by alerts for key events.
█ CONCEPTS
"RXTrend" leverages the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to identify overbought and oversold zones, which are often significant areas on the chart due to potentially higher volume, increased volatility, or acting as pivot points. To address this, I created an indicator that uses RSI values from these zones, mapping them to price levels to determine the trend. Additionally, for a clearer market picture, boxes are added to highlight overbought and oversold zones on the chart, and candlestick coloring is based on the direction of the RSI moving average. This provides further confirmation of the trend direction and identifies potential correction or reversal points. The indicator is universal and works across all markets (stocks, forex, cryptocurrencies) and timeframes.
█ FEATURES
- RSI Calculation: Calculates RSI based on the closing price over a specified period, with a default length of 14.
- Trend Line: A smoothed trend line based on mapping RSI values from overbought (for downtrends) or oversold (for uptrends) zones to price levels. RSI values are transformed into prices using the price range from a selected period (default: 50 bars) and then smoothed to form the trend line. The line changes color based on the trend direction (blue for uptrend, orange for downtrend).
- Candlestick Coloring: Option to color candles based on the direction of the RSI moving average (RSI MA). Candle colors align with the trend and box colors (blue for uptrend, orange for downtrend, gray for neutral).
- Overbought and Oversold Zones: Identifies overbought (RSI > OB) and oversold (RSI < OS) levels, drawing dynamic boxes on the price chart to reflect these zones. Boxes update in real-time, adjusting to new highs and lows.
- Buy and Sell Signals: Generates buy signals (blue "Buy" labels) when the price crosses above the smoothed oversold line and sell signals (orange "Sell" labels) when the price crosses below the smoothed overbought line.
- Shadow Fill: Option to fill the space between the trend line and price (HL2) with adjustable transparency, aiding visual trend assessment.
Alerts: Built-in alerts for:
- Buy and sell signals.
- Appearance of new overbought/oversold boxes.
- RSI MA direction change (candle color change to uptrend or downtrend).
Customization: Allows adjustment of RSI length, overbought/oversold levels, smoothing period, colors, box and label transparency, and the option to keep boxes after RSI returns to normal.
█ HOW TO USE
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.

- Buy Signals: Blue "Buy" label appears when the price crosses above the smoothed oversold line, signaling a potential uptrend.
- Sell Signals: Orange "Sell" label appears when the price crosses below the smoothed overbought line, signaling a potential downtrend.
- Overbought/Oversold Boxes: Orange boxes indicate overbought zones (RSI > OB), blue boxes indicate oversold zones (RSI < OS). Boxes expand dynamically in real-time.
- Candlestick Coloring: Candle colors align with the trend and box colors, reflecting RSI MA direction.
- Alerts: Set up alerts in TradingView for buy/sell signals, new overbought/oversold boxes, or RSI MA direction changes.
- Combining with Other Tools: Use the indicator alongside support/resistance levels, Fair Value Gaps (FVG), or other indicators to confirm signals.
█ APPLICATIONS
The "RXTrend" indicator is designed to identify key market zones and trend direction, making it useful for trend-following and reversal strategies. It enables:
- Trend Confirmation: Candlestick coloring and the trend line help assess the dominant market direction, supporting entry or exit decisions. The trend line can act as a significant support/resistance level, and a price bounce from it may provide a good entry point, especially when confirmed by Fibonacci levels. Additionally, the appearance of overbought/oversold boxes combined with a change in candle color (RSI MA direction) may indicate an impending correction. This allows analysis of potential market overextension and correction endings, enabling multiple entries within a trend.
- Overbought and Oversold Zone Identification: Boxes highlight potential reversal or correction points, especially when combined with support/resistance levels or FVG.
- Signal-Based Strategies: Buy and sell signals can be used as entry points in a trend or as warnings of potential reversals.
█ NOTES
- The indicator is universal and works across all markets and timeframes due to its RSI-based and price-mapping logic.
- Adjust settings (e.g., RSI length, OB/OS levels, smoothing) to suit your trading style and timeframe.
- Use in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to enhance signal accuracy.
MAMA [DCAUT]█ MAMA (MESA Adaptive Moving Average)
📊 OVERVIEW
The MESA Adaptive Moving Average (MAMA) represents an advanced implementation of John F. Ehlers' adaptive moving average system using the Hilbert Transform Discriminator. This indicator automatically adjusts to market cycles, providing superior responsiveness compared to traditional fixed-period moving averages while maintaining smoothness.
MAMA dynamically calculates two lines: the fast-adapting MAMA line and the following FAMA (Following Adaptive Moving Average) line. The system's core strength lies in its ability to automatically detect and adapt to the dominant market cycle, reducing lag during trending periods while providing stability during consolidation phases.
🎯 CORE CONCEPTS
Signal Interpretation:
• MAMA above FAMA: Indicates bullish trend momentum with the fast line leading upward movement
• MAMA below FAMA: Suggests bearish trend momentum with the fast line leading downward movement
• Golden Cross: MAMA crossing above FAMA signals potential upward momentum shift
• Death Cross: MAMA crossing below FAMA indicates potential downward momentum shift
• Line Convergence: MAMA and FAMA approaching each other suggests trend consolidation or potential reversal
Primary Applications:
• Trend Following: Enhanced responsiveness to trend changes compared to traditional moving averages
• Crossover Signals: MAMA/FAMA crossovers for identifying potential entry and exit points
• Cycle Analysis: Automatic adaptation to market's dominant cycle characteristics
• Reduced Lag: Minimized delay in trend detection while maintaining signal smoothness
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
Hilbert Transform Discriminator Technology:
The MAMA system employs John F. Ehlers' Hilbert Transform Discriminator, a sophisticated signal processing technique borrowed from telecommunications engineering. The Hilbert Transform creates a complex representation of the price series by generating a 90-degree phase-shifted version of the original signal, enabling precise cycle measurement.
The discriminator analyzes the instantaneous phase relationships between the original price series and its Hilbert Transform counterpart. This mathematical relationship reveals the dominant cycle period present in the market data at each point in time, forming the foundation for adaptive smoothing.
Instantaneous Period Calculation:
The algorithm computes the instantaneous period using the arctangent of the ratio between the Hilbert Transform and the original price series. This calculation produces a real-time measurement of the market's dominant cycle, typically ranging from short-term noise cycles to longer-term trend cycles.
The instantaneous period measurement undergoes additional smoothing to prevent erratic behavior from single-bar anomalies. This smoothed period value becomes the basis for calculating the adaptive alpha coefficient that controls the moving average's responsiveness.
Dynamic Alpha Coefficient System:
The adaptive alpha calculation represents the core mathematical innovation of MAMA. The alpha coefficient is derived from the instantaneous period measurement and constrained within the user-defined fast and slow limits.
The mathematical relationship converts the measured cycle period into an appropriate smoothing factor: shorter detected cycles result in higher alpha values (increased responsiveness), while longer cycles produce lower alpha values (increased stability). This creates an automatic adaptation mechanism that responds to changing market conditions.
MAMA/FAMA Calculation Process:
The MAMA line applies the dynamically calculated alpha coefficient to an exponential moving average formula: MAMA = alpha × Price + (1 - alpha) × MAMA . The FAMA line then applies a secondary smoothing operation to the MAMA line, creating a following average that provides confirmation signals.
This dual-line approach ensures that the fast-adapting MAMA line captures trend changes quickly, while the FAMA line offers a smoother confirmation signal, reducing the likelihood of acting on temporary price fluctuations.
Cycle Detection Mechanism:
The underlying cycle detection employs quadrature components derived from the Hilbert Transform to measure both amplitude and phase characteristics of price movements. This allows the system to distinguish between genuine trend changes and temporary price noise, automatically adjusting the smoothing intensity accordingly.
The mathematical framework ensures that during strong trending periods with clear directional movement, the algorithm reduces smoothing to minimize lag. Conversely, during consolidation phases with mixed signals, increased smoothing helps filter out false breakouts and whipsaws.
📋 PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
Source Selection Strategy:
• HL2 (High+Low)/2 (Default): Recommended for cycle analysis as it represents the midpoint of each period's trading range, reducing impact of opening gaps and closing spikes
• Close Price: Traditional choice reflecting final market sentiment, suitable for end-of-day analysis
• HLC3 (High+Low+Close)/3: Balanced approach incorporating range information with closing emphasis
• OHLC4 (Open+High+Low+Close)/4: Most comprehensive price representation for complete market view
Fast Limit Configuration (Default 0.5):
Controls the maximum responsiveness of the adaptive system. Higher values increase sensitivity to recent price changes but may introduce more noise. This parameter sets the upper bound for the dynamic alpha calculation.
Slow Limit Configuration (Default 0.05):
Determines the minimum responsiveness, providing stability during uncertain market conditions. Lower values increase smoothing but may cause delayed signals. This parameter sets the lower bound for the dynamic alpha calculation.
Parameter Relationship Considerations:
The fast and slow limits work together to define the adaptive range. The wider the range between these limits, the more dramatic the adaptation between trending and consolidating market conditions. Different market characteristics may benefit from different parameter configurations, requiring individual testing and validation.
📊 COLOR CODING SYSTEM
Line Visualization:
• Green Line (MAMA): The fast-adapting moving average that responds quickly to price changes
• Red Line (FAMA): The following adaptive moving average that provides confirmation signals
The fixed color scheme provides consistent visual identification of each line, enabling clear differentiation between the fast-adapting MAMA and the following FAMA throughout all market conditions.
💡 CORE VALUE PROPOSITION
Advantages Over Traditional Moving Averages:
• Cycle Adaptation: Automatically adjusts to market's dominant cycle rather than using fixed periods
• Reduced Lag: Faster response to genuine trend changes while filtering market noise
• Mathematical Foundation: Based on advanced signal processing techniques from telecommunications engineering
• Dual-Line System: Provides both fast adaptation (MAMA) and confirmation (FAMA) in one indicator
Comparative Performance Characteristics:
Unlike fixed-period moving averages that apply the same smoothing regardless of market conditions, MAMA adapts its behavior based on current market cycle characteristics. This may help reduce whipsaws during consolidation periods while maintaining responsiveness during trending phases.
Usage Considerations:
This indicator is designed for technical analysis purposes. The adaptive nature means that parameter optimization should consider the specific characteristics of the asset and timeframe being analyzed. Like all technical indicators, MAMA should be used as part of a comprehensive analysis approach rather than as a standalone signal generator.
Alert Functionality:
The indicator includes alert conditions for MAMA/FAMA crossovers, enabling automated notification of potential momentum shifts. These alerts can assist in timing analysis but should be combined with other forms of market analysis for decision-making purposes.

FVG Diamond📊 Overview
FVG Diamond is an advanced indicator that detects three specific price action patterns: Inside Bar, Outside Bar, and Diamond Formation. Unlike basic FVG tools, it focuses on these higher-level setups for more precise analysis.
✨ Key Features
🎯 Detection of 3 Advanced FVG Pattern Types
Independent on/off toggle for each pattern
Inside FVG (Inside Bar / Harami): The body of the 3rd candle forms an inside bar relative to the 2nd candle
Outside FVG (Outside Bar / Engulfing): The body of the 1st candle forms an outside bar relative to the 2nd candle
Diamond FVG (Diamond Formation): A unique pattern that satisfies both Inside and Outside conditions
🎯 Mitigation Feature
ON: FVG boxes are automatically removed once price fully fills the FVG zone (keeps the chart clean by showing only active FVGs)
OFF: FVG boxes remain on the chart indefinitely (allows full historical review of all FVGs)
🎨 Visual Features
Color Coding: Assign unique colors to each pattern type
Transparency Control: Default 70% transparency for optimal readability
Extension Display: Extend the right edge of FVG boxes for any number of bars
⚙️ Advanced Configuration
Threshold Settings
Manual Threshold: Define a minimum gap size by percentage
Auto Threshold: Dynamically adjusts based on market volatility
Mitigation Tools
Real-Time Mitigation: Automatic removal when price fills an FVG zone
Mitigation Levels: Display filled FVG levels with dashed lines
🔔 Alerts
Notification on new Bullish/Bearish FVG detection
Notification when an FVG is mitigated (filled)
Works with all FVG types
📈 How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart
The three advanced FVG patterns will be detected and displayed automatically
Set your preferred threshold (0% = detect all gaps)
⚠️ Note: This indicator is designed as an analysis support tool. Trading decisions should be made in combination with other methods of technical and fundamental analysis.

ATR Regime Study [CHE] ATR Regime Study — ATR percentile regimes with clear bands, table and live label
Summary
This study classifies volatility into five regimes by converting ATR into a percentile rank over a rolling window, plotted on a standardized scale between zero and one hundred. Colored bands mark regime thresholds, while a compact table and an optional label report the current percentile and regime. The standardized scale makes symbols and timeframes easier to compare than raw ATR values. Implemented in Pine v6 as a separate pane (overlay set to false), it is a context tool to adapt tactics and risk handling to the prevailing volatility environment.
Motivation: Why this design?
Raw ATR varies with price scale and asset characteristics, which makes regime comparison inconsistent and leads to poor transfer of settings across symbols and timeframes. The core idea is to transform ATR into a percentile rank within a user-defined lookback, then map it into discrete regimes. This yields a stable, interpretable context signal that shifts slower than raw ATR while still responding to genuine volatility changes.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline: Traditional ATR plots or ATR bands using fixed multipliers.
Architecture differences:
Percentile ranking of ATR within a rolling window.
Five discrete regimes with fixed thresholds at ninety, seventy, thirty, and ten.
Visual fills between thresholds plus a live table and a last-bar label.
Practical effect: You read a single normalized line between zero and one hundred with consistent thresholds. This improves cross-asset comparison and makes regime shifts obvious at a glance.
How it works (technical)
The script computes ATR over a configurable length, then converts that series to a percentile rank over a configurable number of bars. The percentile is naturally scaled and limited between zero and one hundred. That value is mapped to one of five regimes: above ninety (Extreme), between seventy and ninety (Elevated), between thirty and seventy (Normal), between ten and thirty (Calm), and below ten (Squeeze). Horizontal guide lines mark the thresholds, and fills shade the regions. A table is created once and updated on each bar to show regime definitions and highlight the current row. An optional label on the last bar displays the current percentile and regime. No higher-timeframe requests are used, so repaint risk is limited to normal live-bar fluctuation until the bar closes.
Parameter Guide
ATR length — Effect: Controls how fast ATR reacts to new ranges. Default: fourteen. Trade-offs/Tips: Increase to reduce noise in choppy markets; decrease to react faster during regime changes.
Percentile window (bars) — Effect: Number of bars used for the percentile ranking. Default: two hundred fifty-two. Trade-offs/Tips: Larger windows stabilize the percentile but slow adaptation after structural regime shifts; smaller windows adapt faster but may flip more often.
Table › Show — Effect: Toggles the regime overview table. Default: enabled. Trade-offs/Tips: Disable on constrained layouts to reduce visual clutter.
Table › Position — Effect: Anchors the table in a chart corner. Default: Top Right. Trade-offs/Tips: Choose a corner that avoids overlapping other panels or drawings.
Label › Show — Effect: Toggles a last-bar label with current percentile and regime. Default: enabled. Trade-offs/Tips: Useful for quick reads; disable if it obscures other annotations.
Reading & Interpretation
The white line shows ATR percentile between zero and one hundred. Crossing above seventy signals an elevated volatility environment; above ninety indicates event-driven extremes. Between thirty and seventy represents typical conditions. Between ten and thirty indicates calm conditions that often suit mean reversion. Below ten reflects compression, where breakout probability often increases. The colored bands visually reinforce these ranges. The table summarizes regime definitions and highlights the current state. The last-bar label mirrors the current percentile and regime for quick inspection.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Prefer continuation tactics when the percentile holds in the Normal or Elevated bands and structure confirms higher highs and higher lows. Consider wider stops and partial position sizing as percentile rises.
Mean reversion: Favor fades in Calm regimes within defined ranges; use structure filters and time-of-day constraints to avoid low-liquidity whipsaws.
Breakout preparation: Track compressions below ten; plan entries only with structure confirmation and risk caps, since compressions can persist.
Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Defaults travel well on daily charts. For intraday, reduce the percentile window to align with session dynamics. Combine with trend or market structure tools for confirmation.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint/confirmation: The percentile updates during live bars and stabilizes on close; closed bars do not repaint.
security/HTF: Not used. If you add higher-timeframe aggregation externally, account for standard repaint caveats.
Resources: Declared maximum bars back is two thousand; limits for lines and labels are five hundred each. A short loop updates the table rows; arrays are used for table content only.
Known limits: Regime boundaries are fixed; assets with persistent volatility shifts may require window retuning. Low-liquidity periods and gaps can produce abrupt percentile changes. ATR is direction-agnostic and should be paired with trend or structure context.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with ATR length fourteen and percentile window two hundred fifty-two on daily charts.
Too many flips: Increase ATR length or increase the percentile window.
Too sluggish: Decrease the percentile window or reduce ATR length.
Intraday noise: Keep ATR length moderate and reduce the window to a session-appropriate size; optionally hide the label to declutter.
Compressed markets: Maintain defaults but rely more on structure and volume filters before acting.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a volatility regime context layer that standardizes ATR into interpretable regimes. It is not a complete trading system, not predictive, and not a stand-alone entry signal. Use it alongside structure analysis, confirmation tools, and disciplined risk management.
