Moving Average Filters Add-on w/ Expanded Source Types [Loxx]Moving Average Filters Add-on w/ Expanded Source Types is a conglomeration of specialized and traditional moving averages that will be used in most of indicators that I publish moving forward. There are 39 moving averages included in this indicator as well as expanded source types including traditional Heiken Ashi and Better Heiken Ashi candles. You can read about the expanded source types clicking here . About half of these moving averages are closed source on other trading platforms. This indicator serves as a reference point for future public/private, open/closed source indicators that I publish to TradingView. Information about these moving averages was gleaned from various forex and trading forums and platforms as well as TASC publications and other assorted research publications.

Included moving averages
ADXvma - Average Directional Volatility Moving Average
Linnsoft's ADXvma formula is a volatility-based moving average, with the volatility being determined by the value of the ADX indicator.
The ADXvma has the SMA in Chande's CMO replaced with an EMA, it then uses a few more layers of EMA smoothing before the "Volatility Index" is calculated.
A side effect is, those additional layers slow down the ADXvma when you compare it to Chande's Variable Index Dynamic Average VIDYA.
The ADXVMA provides support during uptrends and resistance during downtrends and will stay flat for longer, but will create some of the most accurate market signals when it decides to move.
Ahrens Moving Average
Richard D. Ahrens's Moving Average promises "Smoother Data" that isn't influenced by the occasional price spike. It works by using the Open and the Close in his formula so that the only time the Ahrens Moving Average will change is when the candlestick is either making new highs or new lows.
Alexander Moving Average - ALXMA
This Moving Average uses an elaborate smoothing formula and utilizes a 7 period Moving Average. It corresponds to fitting a second-order polynomial to seven consecutive observations. This moving average is rarely used in trading but is interesting as this Moving Average has been applied to diffusion indexes that tend to be very volatile.
Double Exponential Moving Average - DEMA
The Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) combines a smoothed EMA and a single EMA to provide a low-lag indicator. It's primary purpose is to reduce the amount of "lagging entry" opportunities, and like all Moving Averages, the DEMA confirms uptrends whenever price crosses on top of it and closes above it, and confirms downtrends when the price crosses under it and closes below it - but with significantly less lag.
Double Smoothed Exponential Moving Average - DSEMA
The Double Smoothed Exponential Moving Average is a lot less laggy compared to a traditional EMA. It's also considered a leading indicator compared to the EMA, and is best utilized whenever smoothness and speed of reaction to market changes are required.
Exponential Moving Average - EMA
The EMA places more significance on recent data points and moves closer to price than the SMA (Simple Moving Average). It reacts faster to volatility due to its emphasis on recent data and is known for its ability to give greater weight to recent and more relevant data. The EMA is therefore seen as an enhancement over the SMA.
Fast Exponential Moving Average - FEMA
An Exponential Moving Average with a short look-back period.
Fractal Adaptive Moving Average - FRAMA
The Fractal Adaptive Moving Average by John Ehlers is an intelligent adaptive Moving Average which takes the importance of price changes into account and follows price closely enough to display significant moves whilst remaining flat if price ranges. The FRAMA does this by dynamically adjusting the look-back period based on the market's fractal geometry.
Hull Moving Average - HMA
Alan Hull's HMA makes use of weighted moving averages to prioritize recent values and greatly reduce lag whilst maintaining the smoothness of a traditional Moving Average. For this reason, it's seen as a well-suited Moving Average for identifying entry points.
IE/2 - Early T3 by Tim Tilson
The IE/2 is a Moving Average that uses Linear Regression slope in its calculation to help with smoothing. It's a worthy Moving Average on it's own, even though it is the precursor and very early version of the famous "T3 Indicator".
Integral of Linear Regression Slope - ILRS
A Moving Average where the slope of a linear regression line is simply integrated as it is fitted in a moving window of length N (natural numbers in maths) across the data. The derivative of ILRS is the linear regression slope. ILRS is not the same as a SMA (Simple Moving Average) of length N, which is actually the midpoint of the linear regression line as it moves across the data.
Instantaneous Trendline
The Instantaneous Trendline is created by removing the dominant cycle component from the price information which makes this Moving Average suitable for medium to long-term trading.
Laguerre Filter
The Laguerre Filter is a smoothing filter which is based on Laguerre polynomials. The filter requires the current price, three prior prices, a user defined factor called Alpha to fill its calculation.
Adjusting the Alpha coefficient is used to increase or decrease its lag and it's smoothness.
Leader Exponential Moving Average
The Leader EMA was created by Giorgos E. Siligardos who created a Moving Average which was able to eliminate lag altogether whilst maintaining some smoothness. It was first described during his research paper "MACD Leader" where he applied this to the MACD to improve its signals and remove its lagging issue. This filter uses his leading MACD's "modified EMA" and can be used as a zero lag filter.
Linear Regression Value - LSMA (Least Squares Moving Average)
LSMA as a Moving Average is based on plotting the end point of the linear regression line. It compares the current value to the prior value and a determination is made of a possible trend, eg. the linear regression line is pointing up or down.
Linear Weighted Moving Average - LWMA
LWMA reacts to price quicker than the SMA and EMA. Although it's similar to the Simple Moving Average, the difference is that a weight coefficient is multiplied to the price which means the most recent price has the highest weighting, and each prior price has progressively less weight. The weights drop in a linear fashion.
McGinley Dynamic
John McGinley created this Moving Average to track price better than traditional Moving Averages. It does this by incorporating an automatic adjustment factor into its formula, which speeds (or slows) the indicator in trending, or ranging, markets.
McNicholl EMA
Dennis McNicholl developed this Moving Average to use as his center line for his "Better Bollinger Bands" indicator and was successful because it responded better to volatility changes over the standard SMA and managed to avoid common whipsaws.
Non lag moving average
The Non Lag Moving average follows price closely and gives very quick signals as well as early signals of price change. As a standalone Moving Average, it should not be used on its own, but as an additional confluence tool for early signals.
Parabolic Weighted Moving Average
The Parabolic Weighted Moving Average is a variation of the Linear Weighted Moving Average. The Linear Weighted Moving Average calculates the average by assigning different weight to each element in its calculation. The Parabolic Weighted Moving Average is a variation that allows weights to be changed to form a parabolic curve. It is done simply by using the Power parameter of this indicator.
Recursive Moving Trendline
Dennis Meyers's Recursive Moving Trendline uses a recursive (repeated application of a rule) polynomial fit, a technique that uses a small number of past values estimations of price and today's price to predict tomorrows price.
Simple Moving Average - SMA
The SMA calculates the average of a range of prices by adding recent prices and then dividing that figure by the number of time periods in the calculation average. It is the most basic Moving Average which is seen as a reliable tool for starting off with Moving Average studies. As reliable as it may be, the basic moving average will work better when it's enhanced into an EMA.
Sine Weighted Moving Average
The Sine Weighted Moving Average assigns the most weight at the middle of the data set. It does this by weighting from the first half of a Sine Wave Cycle and the most weighting is given to the data in the middle of that data set. The Sine WMA closely resembles the TMA (Triangular Moving Average).
Smoothed Moving Average - SMMA
The Smoothed Moving Average is similar to the Simple Moving Average (SMA), but aims to reduce noise rather than reduce lag. SMMA takes all prices into account and uses a long lookback period. Due to this, it's seen a an accurate yet laggy Moving Average.
Smoother
The Smoother filter is a faster-reacting smoothing technique which generates considerably less lag than the SMMA (Smoothed Moving Average). It gives earlier signals but can also create false signals due to its earlier reactions. This filter is sometimes wrongly mistaken for the superior Jurik Smoothing algorithm.
Super Smoother
The Super Smoother filter uses John Ehlers’s “Super Smoother” which consists of a a Two pole Butterworth filter combined with a 2-bar SMA (Simple Moving Average) that suppresses the 22050 Hz Nyquist frequency: A characteristic of a sampler, which converts a continuous function or signal into a discrete sequence.
Three pole Ehlers Butterworth
The 3 pole Ehlers Butterworth (as well as the Two pole Butterworth) are both superior alternatives to the EMA and SMA. They aim at producing less lag whilst maintaining accuracy. The 2 pole filter will give you a better approximation for price, whereas the 3 pole filter has superior smoothing.
Three pole Ehlers smoother
The 3 pole Ehlers smoother works almost as close to price as the above mentioned 3 Pole Ehlers Butterworth. It acts as a strong baseline for signals but removes some noise. Side by side, it hardly differs from the Three Pole Ehlers Butterworth but when examined closely, it has better overshoot reduction compared to the 3 pole Ehlers Butterworth.
Triangular Moving Average - TMA
The TMA is similar to the EMA but uses a different weighting scheme. Exponential and weighted Moving Averages will assign weight to the most recent price data. Simple moving averages will assign the weight equally across all the price data. With a TMA (Triangular Moving Average), it is double smoother (averaged twice) so the majority of the weight is assigned to the middle portion of the data.
The TMA and Sine Weighted Moving Average Filter are almost identical at times.
Triple Exponential Moving Average - TEMA
The TEMA uses multiple EMA calculations as well as subtracting lag to create a tool which can be used for scalping pullbacks. As it follows price closely, it's signals are considered very noisy and should only be used in extremely fast-paced trading conditions.
Two pole Ehlers Butterworth
The 2 pole Ehlers Butterworth (as well as the three pole Butterworth mentioned above) is another filter that cuts out the noise and follows the price closely. The 2 pole is seen as a faster, leading filter over the 3 pole and follows price a bit more closely. Analysts will utilize both a 2 pole and a 3 pole Butterworth on the same chart using the same period, but having both on chart allows its crosses to be traded.
Two pole Ehlers smoother
A smoother version of the Two pole Ehlers Butterworth. This filter is the faster version out of the 3 pole Ehlers Butterworth. It does a decent job at cutting out market noise whilst emphasizing a closer following to price over the 3 pole Ehlers.
Volume Weighted EMA - VEMA
Utilizing tick volume in MT4 (or real volume in MT5), this EMA will use the Volume reading in its decision to plot its moves. The more Volume it detects on a move, the more authority (confirmation) it has. And this EMA uses those Volume readings to plot its movements.
Studies show that tick volume and real volume have a very strong correlation, so using this filter in MT4 or MT5 produces very similar results and readings.
Zero Lag DEMA - Zero Lag Double Exponential Moving Average
John Ehlers's Zero Lag DEMA's aim is to eliminate the inherent lag associated with all trend following indicators which average a price over time. Because this is a Double Exponential Moving Average with Zero Lag, it has a tendency to overshoot and create a lot of false signals for swing trading. It can however be used for quick scalping or as a secondary indicator for confluence.
Zero Lag Moving Average
The Zero Lag Moving Average is described by its creator, John Ehlers, as a Moving Average with absolutely no delay. And it's for this reason that this filter will cause a lot of abrupt signals which will not be ideal for medium to long-term traders. This filter is designed to follow price as close as possible whilst de-lagging data instead of basing it on regular data. The way this is done is by attempting to remove the cumulative effect of the Moving Average.
Zero Lag TEMA - Zero Lag Triple Exponential Moving Average
Just like the Zero Lag DEMA, this filter will give you the fastest signals out of all the Zero Lag Moving Averages. This is useful for scalping but dangerous for medium to long-term traders, especially during market Volatility and news events. Having no lag, this filter also has no smoothing in its signals and can cause some very bizarre behavior when applied to certain indicators.

What are Heiken Ashi "better" candles?
The "better formula" was proposed in an article/memo by BNP-Paribas (In Warrants & Zertifikate, No. 8, August 2004 (a monthly German magazine published by BNP Paribas, Frankfurt), there is an article by Sebastian Schmidt about further development (smoothing) of Heikin-Ashi chart.)
They proposed to use the following:
(Open+Close)/2+(((Close-Open)/( High-Low ))*ABS((Close-Open)/2))
instead of using :
haClose = (O+H+L+C)/4
According to that document the HA representation using their proposed formula is better than the traditional formula.
What are traditional Heiken-Ashi candles?
The Heikin-Ashi technique averages price data to create a Japanese candlestick chart that filters out market noise.
Heikin-Ashi charts, developed by Munehisa Homma in the 1700s, share some characteristics with standard candlestick charts but differ based on the values used to create each candle. Instead of using the open, high, low, and close like standard candlestick charts, the Heikin-Ashi technique uses a modified formula based on two-period averages. This gives the chart a smoother appearance, making it easier to spots trends and reversals, but also obscures gaps and some price data.
Expanded generic source types:
Close = close
Open = open
High = high
Low = low
Median = hl2

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Fisherized Deviation Scaled OscillatorLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Fisherized Deviation Scaled Oscillator in Oct, 2018.
Function
In “Probability—Probably A Good Thing To Know,” John Ehlers introduces a procedure for measuring an indicator’s probability distribution to determine if it can be used as part of a reversion-to-the-mean trading strategy. Dr. Ehlers demonstrates this method with several of his existing indicators and presents a new indicator that he calls a deviation-scaled oscillator with Fisher transform. It charts the probability density of an oscillator to evaluate its applicability to swing trading.

Readme
In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.
ATR Trend + RSI Pullback Strategy [Profit-Focused]This strategy is designed to catch high-probability pullbacks during strong trends using a combination of ATR-based volatility filters, RSI exhaustion levels, and a trend-following entry model.
Strategy Logic
Rather than relying on lagging crossovers, this model waits for RSI to dip into oversold zones (below 40) while price remains above a long-term EMA (default: 200). This setup captures pullbacks in strong uptrends, allowing traders to enter early in a move while controlling risk dynamically.
To avoid entries during low-volatility conditions or sideways price action, it applies a minimum ATR filter. The ATR also defines both the stop-loss and take-profit levels, allowing the model to adapt to changing market conditions.
Exit logic includes:
A take-profit at 3× the ATR distance
A stop-loss at 1.5× the ATR distance
An optional early exit if RSI crosses above 70, signaling overbought conditions
Technical Details
Trend Filter: 200 EMA – must be rising and price must be above it
Entry Signal: RSI dips below 40 during an uptrend
Volatility Filter: ATR must be above a user-defined minimum threshold
Stop-Loss: 1.5× ATR below entry price
Take-Profit: 3.0× ATR above entry price
Exit on Overbought: RSI > 70 (optional early exit)
Backtest Settings
Initial Capital: $10,000
Position Sizing: 5% of equity per trade
Slippage: 1 tick
Commission: 0.075% per trade
Trade Direction: Long only
Timeframes Tested: 15m, 1H, and 30m on trending assets like BTCUSD, NAS100, ETHUSD
This model is tuned for positive P&L across trending environments and volatile markets.
Educational Use Only
This strategy is for educational purposes only and should not be considered financial advice. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always validate performance on multiple markets and timeframes before using it in live trading.

💡 Usage Examples
Example 1: Using Pre-Calibrated System
pinescriptimport unicorpusstocks/NormalizedIndicators/1 as lib
// Simple one-line implementation for Bitcoin
btcSignal = lib.btc_4d_cal(close)
// Trading logic
longCondition = btcSignal > 0.5
shortCondition = btcSignal < -0.5
// Plot
plot(btcSignal, "BTC 4D Consensus", color.orange)
Example 2: Custom Multi-Indicator Consensus

spy = request.security("SPY", timeframe.period, close)
correlation = lib.MCorrelation(close, spy)
trendSignal = lib.virtual_1d_cal(close)
// Only signals with positive market correlation
tradeBuy = trendSignal > 0.5 and correlation > 0.5
tradeSell = trendSignal < -0.5 and correlation > 0.5
Example 5: Beta-Adjusted Position Sizing
pinescriptimport unicorpusstocks/NormalizedIndicators/1 as lib
spy = request.security("SPY", timeframe.period, close)
beta = lib.assetBeta(close, spy)
// Adjust position size based on Beta
basePositionSize = 100
adjustedSize = basePositionSize / beta // Less size with high Beta
// Use with calibrated signal
signal = lib.qqq_4d_cal(close)
🎯 Choosing the Right Calibration
Decision Tree
1. What asset are you trading?
Bitcoin → btc_4d_cal()
Ethereum/ERC-20 → eth_4d_cal()
Solana → sol_4d_cal()
Solana memes → sol_meme_4d_cal()
SUI ecosystem → sui_cal()
BASE ecosystem → base_cal()
Meme coins (any chain) → meme_cal()
QQQ/Tech indices → qqq_4d_cal()
Other/General → virtual_4d_cal() or virtual_1d_cal()
2. What timeframe?
Most calibrations are optimized for 4D (4-day) or 1D (daily)
For other timeframes, start with virtual calibrations and adjust
3. What's the asset's volatility?
High volatility (memes, new tokens) → Use meme_cal() or similar
Medium volatility (established alts) → Use specific calibrations
Low volatility (BTC, major indices) → Use btc_4d_cal() or qqq_4d_cal()

⚠️ Important Notes
General Usage
All indicators are lagging, as is typical for trend-following indicators
Signals should be combined with additional analysis (volume, support/resistance, etc.)
Backtesting is recommended before starting live trading with these signals
Different assets and timeframes may require different parameter optimizations
Pre-Calibrated Systems
Calibrations are optimized for specific timeframes - using them on different timeframes may reduce effectiveness
Market conditions change - what worked historically may need adjustment
Pre-calibrations are starting points, not guaranteed solutions
Always validate performance on your specific use case
Consider current market regime (trending vs. ranging)
Risk Management
Meme coin calibrations are designed for extremely volatile assets - use appropriate position sizing
Pre-calibrated systems do not eliminate risk
Always use stop losses and proper risk management
Past performance does not guarantee future results
Customization
Pre-calibrations can serve as templates for your own optimizations
Feel free to adjust individual parameters within calibration functions
Test modifications thoroughly before live deployment

indicator CalibrationIndicator Calibration - Multi-Indicator Consensus System
Overview
Indicator Calibration is a powerful consensus-based trading indicator that leverages the MyIndicatorLibrary (NormalizedIndicators) to combine multiple trend-following indicators into a single, actionable signal. By averaging the normalized outputs of up to 8 different trend indicators, this tool provides traders with a clear consensus view of market direction, reducing noise and false signals inherent in single-indicator approaches.
The indicator outputs a value between -1 (strong bearish) and +1 (strong bullish), with 0 representing a neutral market state. This creates an intuitive, easy-to-read oscillator that synthesizes multiple analytical perspectives into one coherent signal.
🎯 Core Concept
Consensus Trading Philosophy
Rather than relying on a single indicator that may give conflicting or premature signals, Indicator Calibration employs a democratic voting system where multiple indicators contribute their normalized opinion:
Each enabled indicator votes: +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral)
The votes are averaged to create a consensus signal
Strong consensus (closer to ±1) indicates high agreement among indicators
Weak consensus (closer to 0) indicates market indecision or transition
Key Benefits
Reduced False Signals: Multiple indicators must agree before strong signals appear
Noise Filtering: Individual indicator quirks are smoothed out by averaging
Customizable: Enable/disable indicators and adjust parameters to suit your trading style
Universal Application: Works across all timeframes and asset classes
Clear Visualization: Simple line oscillator with clear bull/bear zones

📈 Signal Interpretation
Output Line (Orange)
The main output oscillates between -1 and +1:
+1.0 to +0.5: Strong bullish consensus (all or most indicators agree on uptrend)
+0.5 to +0.2: Moderate bullish bias (bullish indicators outnumber bearish)
+0.2 to -0.2: Neutral zone (mixed signals or transition phase)
-0.2 to -0.5: Moderate bearish bias (bearish indicators outnumber bullish)
-0.5 to -1.0: Strong bearish consensus (all or most indicators agree on downtrend)
Reference Lines
Green line (+1): Maximum bullish consensus
Red line (-1): Maximum bearish consensus
Gray line (0): Neutral midpoint
💡 Trading Strategies
Strategy 1: Consensus Threshold Trading
Entry Rules:
- Long: Output crosses above +0.5 (strong bullish consensus)
- Short: Output crosses below -0.5 (strong bearish consensus)
Exit Rules:
- Exit Long: Output crosses below 0 (consensus lost)
- Exit Short: Output crosses above 0 (consensus lost)
Strategy 2: Zero-Line Crossover
Entry Rules:
- Long: Output crosses above 0 (bullish shift in consensus)
- Short: Output crosses below 0 (bearish shift in consensus)
Exit Rules:
- Exit on opposite crossover
Strategy 3: Divergence Trading
Look for divergences between:
- Price making higher highs while indicator makes lower highs (bearish divergence)
- Price making lower lows while indicator makes higher lows (bullish divergence)
Strategy 4: Extreme Reading Reversal
Entry Rules:
- Long: Output reaches -0.8 or below (extreme bearish consensus = potential reversal)
- Short: Output reaches +0.8 or above (extreme bullish consensus = potential reversal)
Use with caution - best combined with other reversal signals

🎯 Wyckoff Order Block Entry System🎯 Wyckoff Order Block Entry System
📝 INDICATOR DESCRIPTION
🎯 Wyckoff Order Block Entry System Short Description:
Professional institutional zone trading combined with Wyckoff methodology. Identifies high-probability entries where smart money meets classic price action patterns.
Full Description:
Wyckoff Order Block Entry System is a precision trading tool that combines two powerful concepts:
Order Blocks - Institutional zones where large players place their orders
Wyckoff Method - Classic price action patterns revealing smart money behavior
🎯 What Makes This Different?
Unlike traditional indicators that flood your chart with signals, this system only triggers entries when BOTH conditions are met:
Price enters an institutional Order Block zone (current timeframe OR higher timeframe)
A Wyckoff pattern occurs (Spring, SOS, Upthrust, or SOW)
This dual-confirmation approach ensures you're trading with institutional flow at optimal entry points.
📊 Key Features:
✅ Order Block Detection
Automatically identifies institutional buying/selling zones
Current timeframe order blocks (solid lines)
Higher timeframe order blocks (dashed lines) for stronger zones
Customizable strength and extension settings
✅ 4 Wyckoff Entry Patterns
SPRING (Bullish Reversal): Fake breakdown below support → Quick recovery
SOS (Sign of Strength): Strong bullish candle after accumulation
UPTHRUST (Bearish Reversal): Fake breakout above resistance → Quick rejection
SOW (Sign of Weakness): Strong bearish candle after distribution
✅ Clean Visual Design
Minimalist approach - only essential information
Color-coded zones (Green = Bullish, Red = Bearish, Cyan/Magenta = HTF)
Clear entry signals with pattern type labels
No chart clutter - focus on what matters
✅ Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Integrates higher timeframe order blocks
HTF signals marked with "+HTF" tag for extra confidence
Fully customizable HTF selection (H1, H4, Daily, etc.)
✅ Smart Alerts
Entry signal alerts (Long/Short)
Order block formation alerts
HTF order block alerts
Customizable alert messages
💡 How To Use:
Setup: Add indicator to your chart, configure HTF timeframe (default H1)

TraderDemircan Auto Fibonacci RetracementDescription:
What This Indicator Does:This indicator automatically identifies significant swing high and swing low points within a customizable lookback period and draws comprehensive Fibonacci retracement and extension levels between them. Unlike the manual Fibonacci tool that requires you to constantly redraw levels as price action evolves, this automated version continuously updates the Fibonacci grid based on the most recent major swing points, ensuring you always have current and relevant support/resistance zones displayed on your chart.Key Features:
Automatic Swing Detection: Continuously scans the specified lookback period to find the most significant high and low points, eliminating manual drawing errors
Comprehensive Level Coverage: Plots 16 Fibonacci levels including 7 retracement levels (0.0 to 1.0) and 9 extension levels (1.115 to 3.618)
Top-Down Methodology: Draws from swing high to swing low (right-to-left), following the traditional Fibonacci retracement convention where 100% is at the top
Dual Labeling System: Shows both exact price values and Fibonacci percentages for easy reference
Complete Customization: Individual toggle controls and color selection for each of the 16 levels
Flexible Display Options: Adjust line thickness (1-5), style (solid/dashed/dotted), and extension direction (left/right/both)
Visual Swing Markers: Red diamond at the swing high (starting point) and green diamond at the swing low (ending point)
Optional Trend Line: Connects the two swing points to visualize the overall price movement direction
How It Works:The indicator employs a sophisticated swing point detection algorithm that operates in two stages:Stage 1 - Find the Swing Low (Support Base):
Scans the entire lookback period to identify the lowest low, which becomes the anchor point (0.0 level in traditional retracement terms, though displayed at the bottom of the grid).Stage 2 - Find the Swing High (Resistance Peak):
After identifying the swing low, searches for the highest high that occurred after that low point, establishing the swing range. This creates a valid price movement range for Fibonacci analysis.Fibonacci Calculation Method:
The indicator uses the top-down approach where:
1.0 Level = Swing High (100% retracement, the top)
0.0 Level = Swing Low (0% retracement, the bottom)
Retracement Levels (0.236 to 0.786) = Potential support zones during pullbacks from the high
Extension Levels (1.115 to 3.618) = Potential target zones below the swing low
Formula: Price = SwingHigh - (SwingHigh - SwingLow) × FibonacciLevelThis ensures that 0.0 is at the bottom and extensions (>1.0) plot below the swing low, following standard Fibonacci retracement convention.Fibonacci Levels Explained:Retracement Levels (0.0 - 1.0):
0.0 (Gray): Swing low - the base support level
0.236 (Red): Shallow retracement, first minor support
0.382 (Orange): Moderate retracement, commonly watched support
0.5 (Purple): Psychological midpoint, significant support/resistance
0.618 (Blue - Golden Ratio): The most important retracement level, high-probability reversal zone
0.786 (Cyan): Deep retracement, last defense before full reversal
1.0 (Gray): Swing high - the initial resistance level
Extension Levels (1.115 - 3.618):
1.115 (Green): First extension, minimal downside target
1.272 (Light Green): Minor extension, common profit target
1.414 (Yellow-Green): Square root of 2, mathematical significance
1.618 (Gold - Golden Extension): Primary downside target, most watched extension level
2.0 (Orange-Red): 200% extension, psychological round number
2.382 (Pink): Secondary extension target
2.618 (Purple): Deep extension, major target zone
3.272 (Deep Purple): Extreme extension level
3.618 (Blue): Maximum extension, rare but powerful target
How to Use:For Retracement Trading (Buying Pullbacks in Uptrends):
Wait for price to make a significant move up from swing low to swing high
When price starts pulling back, watch for reactions at key Fibonacci levels
Most common entry zones: 0.382, 0.5, and especially 0.618 (golden ratio)
Enter long positions when price shows reversal signals (candlestick patterns, volume increase) at these levels
Place stop loss below the next Fibonacci level
Target: Return to swing high or higher extension levels
For Extension Trading (Profit Targets):
After price breaks below the swing low (0.0 level), use extensions as profit targets
First target: 1.272 (conservative)
Primary target: 1.618 (golden extension - most commonly reached)
Extended target: 2.618 (for strong trends)
Extreme target: 3.618 (only in powerful trending moves)
For Counter-Trend Trading (Fading Extremes):
When price reaches deep retracements (0.786 or below), look for exhaustion signals
Watch for divergences between price and momentum indicators at these levels
Enter reversal trades with tight stops below the swing low
Target: 0.5 or 0.382 levels on the bounce
For Trend Continuation:
In strong uptrends, shallow retracements (0.236 to 0.382) often hold
Use these as low-risk entry points to join the existing trend
Failure to hold 0.5 suggests weakening momentum
Breaking below 0.618 often indicates trend reversal, not just retracement
Multi-Timeframe Strategy:
Use daily timeframe Fibonacci for major support/resistance zones
Use 4H or 1H Fibonacci for precise entry timing within those zones
Confluence between multiple timeframe Fibonacci levels creates high-probability zones
Example: Daily 0.618 level aligning with 4H 0.5 level = strong support
Settings Guide:Lookback Period (10-500):
Short (20-50): Captures recent swings, more frequent updates, suited for day trading
Medium (50-150): Balanced approach, good for swing trading (default: 100)
Long (150-500): Identifies major market structure, suited for position trading
Higher values = more stable levels but slower to adapt to new trends
Pivot Sensitivity (1-20):
Controls how many candles are required to confirm a swing point
Low (1-5): More sensitive, identifies minor swings (default: 5)
High (10-20): Less sensitive, only major swings qualify
Use higher sensitivity on lower timeframes to filter noise
Individual Level Toggles:
Enable only the levels you actively trade to reduce chart clutter
Common minimalist setup: Show only 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 1.0, 1.618, 2.618
Comprehensive setup: Enable all levels for maximum information
Visual Customization:
Line Thickness: Thicker lines (3-5) for presentation, thinner (1-2) for trading
Line Style: Solid for primary levels (0.5, 0.618, 1.618), dashed/dotted for secondary
Price Labels: Essential for knowing exact entry/exit prices
Percent Labels: Helpful for quickly identifying which Fibonacci level you're looking at
Extension Direction: Extend right for forward-looking analysis, left for historical context
What Makes This Original:While Fibonacci indicators are common on TradingView, this script's originality comes from:
Intelligent Two-Stage Detection: Unlike simple high/low finders, this uses a sequential approach (find low first, then find the high that occurred after it), ensuring logical price flow representation
Comprehensive Level Set: Includes 16 levels spanning from retracement to extreme extensions, more than most Fibonacci tools
Top-Down Methodology: Properly implements the traditional Fibonacci retracement convention (high to low) rather than the reverse
Automatic Range Validation: Only draws Fibonacci when both swing points are valid and in the correct temporal order
Dual Extension Options: Separate controls for extending lines left (historical context) and right (forward projection)
Smart Label Positioning: Places percentage labels on the left and price labels on the right for clarity
Visual Swing Confirmation: Diamond markers at swing points help users understand why levels are positioned where they are
Important Considerations:
Historical Nature: Fibonacci retracements are based on past price swings; they don't predict future moves, only suggest potential support/resistance
Self-Fulfilling Prophecy: Fibonacci levels work partly because many traders watch them, creating actual support/resistance at those levels
Not All Levels Hold: In strong trends, price may slice through multiple Fibonacci levels without pausing
Context Matters: Fibonacci works best when aligned with other support/resistance (previous highs/lows, moving averages, trendlines)
Volume Confirmation: The most reliable Fibonacci reversals occur with volume spikes at key levels
Dynamic Updates: The levels will redraw as new swing highs/lows form, so don't rely solely on static screenshots
Best Practices:
Don't Trade Blindly: Fibonacci levels are zones, not exact prices. Look for confirmation (candlestick patterns, indicators, volume)
Combine with Price Action: Watch for pin bars, engulfing candles, or doji at key Fibonacci levels
Use Stop Losses: Place stops beyond the next Fibonacci level to give trades room but limit risk
Scale In/Out: Consider entering partial positions at 0.5 and adding more at 0.618 rather than all-in at one level
Check Multiple Timeframes: Daily Fibonacci + 4H Fibonacci convergence = high-probability zone
Respect the 0.618: This golden ratio level is historically the most reliable for reversals
Extensions Need Strong Trends: Don't expect extensions to be hit unless there's clear momentum beyond the swing low
Optimal Timeframes:
Scalping (1-5 minutes): Lookback 20-30, watch 0.382, 0.5, 0.618 only
Day Trading (15m-1H): Lookback 50-100, all retracement levels important
Swing Trading (4H-Daily): Lookback 100-200, focus on 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, and extensions
Position Trading (Daily-Weekly): Lookback 200-500, all levels relevant for long-term planning
Common Fibonacci Trading Mistakes to Avoid:
Wrong Swing Selection: Choosing insignificant swings produces meaningless levels
Premature Entry: Entering as soon as price touches a Fibonacci level without confirmation
Ignoring Trend: Fighting the main trend by buying deep retracements in downtrends
Over-Reliance: Using Fibonacci in isolation without confirming with other technical factors
Static Analysis: Not updating your Fibonacci as market structure evolves
Arbitrary Lookback: Using the same lookback period for all assets and timeframes
Integration with Other Tools:Fibonacci + Moving Averages:
When 0.618 level aligns with 50 or 200 EMA, confluence creates stronger support
Price bouncing from both Fibonacci and MA simultaneously = high-probability trade
Fibonacci + RSI/Stochastic:
Oversold indicators at 0.618 or deeper retracements = strong buy signal
Overbought indicators at swing high (1.0) = potential reversal warning
Fibonacci + Volume Profile:
High-volume nodes aligning with Fibonacci levels create robust support/resistance
Low-volume areas near Fibonacci levels may see rapid price movement through them
Fibonacci + Trendlines:
Fibonacci retracement level + ascending trendline = double support
Breaking both simultaneously confirms trend change
Technical Notes:
Uses ta.lowest() and ta.highest() for efficient swing detection across the lookback period
Implements dynamic line and label arrays for clean redraws without memory leaks
All calculations update in real-time as new bars form
Extension options allow customization without modifying core code
Format.mintick ensures price labels match the symbol's minimum price increment
Tooltip on swing markers shows exact price values for precision
Monthly, Weekly Open + Daily Pivot (Broken Lines, fixed)monthly open line weekly open and daily pivot
This TradingView indicator plots three key reference levels on your chart:
Monthly Open Line – shows the current month’s opening price.
Weekly Open Line – shows the current week’s opening price.
Daily Pivot Line – shows the pivot level based on the previous day’s high, low, and close.
Each line resets at the start of its new period (month, week, or day), so the lines are broken, not continuous.
You can fully customize visibility, color, and thickness for each line.
It helps traders quickly see market bias and important support/resistance levels for better intraday or swing trading decisions.
VWAP CATS background flipped 4.0VWAP CATS Background Flipped 4.0 is a sophisticated Pine Script v5 indicator for TradingView that combines a configurable moving average (MA) with dynamic Gann Square of 9 levels to create a multi-layered background shading system for price action analysis. It visualizes support/resistance zones around a central MA (often VWAP or RVWAP) using incremental offsets (either % or absolute points), generating symmetrical bands that resemble a "CATS" (Concentric Adaptive Tiered System) — hence the name.The background is "flipped" in the sense that shading intensity and structure emphasize higher-tier zones, and labels are placed to the right of the chart for future projection.Key FeaturesFeature

Choch Pattern Levels WITH ALERTS [credit to: @BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Choch Pattern Levels WITH ALERTS indicator automatically detects Change of Character (CHoCH) shifts in market structure — crucial moments that often signal early trend reversals or major directional transitions. It plots the structural break level, visualizes the pattern zone with triangle overlays, and tracks delta volume to help traders assess the strength behind each move. Now, an additional feature of alerts have been included!
🔵 CONCEPTS
CHoCH Pattern: A bullish CHoCH forms when price breaks a previous swing high after a swing low, while a bearish CHoCH appears when price breaks a swing low after a prior swing high.
snapshot
Break Level Mapping: The indicator identifies the highest or lowest point between the pivot and the breakout, marking it with a clean horizontal level where price often reacts.
snapshot
Delta Volume Tracking: Net bullish or bearish volume is accumulated between the pivot and the breakout, revealing the momentum and conviction behind each CHoCH.
snapshot
Chart Clean-Up: If price later closes through the CHoCH level, the zone is automatically removed to maintain clarity and focus on active setups only.
🔵 FEATURES
Automatic CHoCH pattern detection using pivot-based logic.
Triangle shapes show structure break: pivot → breakout → internal high/low.
snapshot

Optional delta volume label with directional sign (+/−).
Green visuals for bullish CHoCHs, red for bearish.
Fully auto-cleaning invalidated levels to reduce clutter.
Clean organization of all lines, labels, and overlays.
User-defined Length input to adjust pivot sensitivity.
snapshot
NEW! - alert system inserted to Pinescript for either: any triangle forms or whether a bullish "green" triangle or bearish "red" triangle forms - providing real-time alerts for whenever timeframe chart you've selected while creating the alert.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use CHoCH levels as early trend reversal zones or confirmation signals.
Treat bullish CHoCHs as support zones, bearish CHoCHs as resistance.
Look for high delta volume to validate the strength behind each CHoCH.
Combine with other BigBeluga tools like supply/demand, FVGs, or liquidity maps for confluence.
Adjust pivot Length based on your strategy — shorter for intraday, longer for swing trading.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Choch Pattern Levels WITH ALERTS highlights key structural breaks that can mark the start of new trends. By combining precise break detection with volume analytics and automatic cleanup, it provides actionable insights into the true intent behind price moves — giving traders a clean edge in spotting early reversals and key reaction zones with real-time alerts for precision to evaluate and enter markets.

Trend Bars with Counter Table# TradingView Trend Bar Indicator Explained
## Indicator Overview
This is a TradingView indicator designed to identify and count **Trend Bars**. It not only visually marks strong bullish and bearish bars on the chart but also displays a data table in the upper right corner that tracks the distribution of trend bars across different periods, helping traders quickly assess market bias.
## Core Concept: What is a Trend Bar?
The indicator defines two types of trend bars:
### Bull Trend Bar
- **Condition**: Close > Open (bullish candle)
- **Strength Requirement**: Body size ≥ 75% of total candle range
```
Body Length = |Close - Open|
Total Candle Range = High - Low
Criteria: Body Length ≥ 0.75 × Total Candle Range
```
This means both upper and lower wicks are very short, representing a very strong bullish candle.
### Bear Trend Bar
- **Condition**: Close < Open (bearish candle)
- **Strength Requirement**: Body size ≥ 75% of total candle range
Similarly, this represents a strong bearish candle with minimal wicks and a full body.
## Visual Markers
The indicator marks qualifying candles with:
- **Green upward arrow**: Bull trend bar, appears below the candle
- **Red downward arrow**: Bear trend bar, appears above the candle
## Statistical Function
The indicator uses a **rolling array** (storing up to 1000 trend bars) to track historical data, then counts trend bar distribution across 5 different periods:
| Period | Statistical Range |
|--------|------------------|
| Group 1 | Last 7 trend bars |
| Group 2 | Last 15 trend bars |
| Group 3 | Last 21 trend bars |
| Group 4 | Last 29 trend bars |
| Group 5 | Last 35 trend bars |
**Note**: This counts "the last N trend bars," not "the last N candles." Only candles meeting the trend bar criteria are included.
## Data Table Interpretation
The table in the upper right corner contains 5 columns:
1. **Last N**: The set statistical range (7, 15, 21, 29, 35)
2. **Total**: Actual number of trend bars counted (may be less than target initially)
3. **Bull**: Number of bull trend bars (displayed in green)
4. **Bear**: Number of bear trend bars (displayed in red)
5. **Bias**: Market bias
- "bull" (green): More bull trend bars
- "bear" (red): More bear trend bars
## Practical Applications
### 1. Assess Short-term Momentum
Check the distribution of the last 7 trend bars. If bull trend bars dominate (e.g., 5:2), it indicates strong short-term buying pressure.
### 2. Identify Trend Strength
If multiple periods show the same Bias direction, the trend is very clear. For example, all 5 periods showing "bull" is a strong upward signal.
### 3. Spot Trend Reversals
When short-term bias (7 bars) opposes long-term bias (35 bars), it may signal a trend change in progress.
### 4. Combine with Other Indicators
Use this indicator alongside moving averages, support/resistance levels, and other tools to improve trading decision accuracy.
## Technical Highlights
- **Dynamic Array Management**: Uses `array.unshift()` to add new data at the array's beginning, ensuring the latest trend bars are always first
- **Efficient Statistics**: Quickly calculates bull/bear distribution through loop iteration over specified array ranges
- **Adaptive Display**: Shows actual available count when historical data is insufficient
- **Real-time Updates**: Only updates the table on the last bar to avoid unnecessary calculations
## Conclusion
The core value of this indicator lies in **quantifying price action**. By identifying strong candles with full bodies and clear direction, then tracking their distribution, traders can quickly grasp the balance of market forces and make more informed trading decisions. Whether for intraday trading or swing trading, this tool provides valuable reference information.

Moving Average ProjectionDisplays 2-5 moving averages (solid lines) and projects their future trajectory (dashed lines) based on current trend momentum. This helps you anticipate where key MAs are heading and identify potential future support/resistance levels.
Important: Projections show where MAs would move IF the current trend continues—they're not predictions. Market conditions change, so use projections as planning tools, not trading signals.
General Settings
Number of MAs (2-5) controls how many moving averages display on your chart. Start with 2-3 to avoid clutter. Projection Bars (1-100) determines how far into the future to project—use 10-20 for intraday charts and 20-40 for daily charts. Lookback for Slope (2-100) sets the number of bars used to calculate trend slope, where shorter lookbacks are more responsive and longer ones are smoother. The default of 20 works well for most situations.
Individual MA Settings (MA 1-5)
Each MA has four settings: Length sets the period for the MA (common values are 9, 20, 50, 100, and 200), Type lets you choose between SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, VWMA, or RMA (EMA is most popular), Color sets the historical MA line color, and Projection Color sets the projected line color (usually a lighter or transparent version of the main color).
MA Types Quick Reference: EMA is most popular and responsive to recent prices. SMA gives equal weight to all periods and is the smoothest. HMA is very responsive with low lag. VWMA incorporates volume data.
Quick Setup Examples
Day Trading: 3 MAs (9/21/50 EMA), 10-15 projection bars, 10-15 lookback
Swing Trading: 2 MAs (50/200 EMA), 20-30 projection bars, 20 lookback
Scalping: 2 MAs (9/20 EMA), 5-10 projection bars, 5-10 lookback
How to Use
Trend Identification: An uptrend shows price above rising MAs with projections pointing up. A downtrend shows price below falling MAs with projections pointing down. Consolidation appears as flat MAs with horizontal projections.
Support & Resistance: Rising MA projections act as future dynamic support levels, while falling MA projections act as future dynamic resistance levels.
Anticipating Changes: Watch for projected MA crossovers before they happen. When projections converge, expect volatility or consolidation. Steep projections suggest unsustainable trends, so be cautious. Flat projections indicate ranging markets.
Trade Planning: Check the current trend using MA alignment, then look at projections to gauge trend continuation likelihood. Use projected MA levels for potential targets or stop placement.
Important Tips
When Projections Work Best: Projections are most reliable in stable trending markets with consistent momentum, low volatility environments, and away from major news events.
When to Be Cautious: Use caution during high volatility or choppy price action, around major economic releases, when projections show extreme or parabolic angles, and during trend transitions.
Combine With Other Analysis: Don't trade projections alone. Use them alongside price action, volume, support and resistance levels, and other indicators for confirmation.
Best Practices
Start with 2-3 MAs to avoid chart clutter. Match your projection and lookback bars to your trading timeframe. Use consistent color schemes for quick interpretation. Adjust settings as market conditions change. Always use proper risk management—projections are planning tools, not guarantees.
Troubleshooting
Projections not showing: Check that Projection Bars > 0 and you're viewing the most recent bar
Chart too cluttered: Reduce number of MAs or increase projection color transparency
Projections too volatile: Increase lookback bars or switch to EMA/SMA from HMA
Can't see certain MAs: Verify "Number of MAs" setting includes them (MA 3 won't show if set to 2)

XAUUSD Best Strategy - Buy/Sell SignalsThe best strategy to trade XAUUSD (gold) often depends on your trading style and market conditions, but several high-probability approaches are recommended by top traders and industry experts for both scalping and swing trading.
Trend-Following Using EMAs
Use a combination of 9-period and 21-period Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) on the 5-minute or 15-minute chart.
Enter long when the 9 EMA crosses above the 21 EMA, especially when overall trend aligns with higher timeframes (such as H1 or H4).
Confirm entries with an RSI value above 50 for buys (or below 50 for sells).
Set stop loss just below the latest swing low for long positions.
Ideal for fast-moving, trending sessions (London and New York overlap).
Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI) - Advanced SMC [PhenLabs]📊Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI)
Version: PineScript™v6
📌Description
The Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI) is an advanced Smart Money Concepts implementation that tracks institutional trading behavior through multi-dimensional analysis. This comprehensive indicator combines volume-validated Order Block detection, Fair Value Gap identification with auto-mitigation tracking, dynamic Liquidity Zone mapping, and Break of Structure/Change of Character detection into a unified system.
Unlike basic SMC indicators, SMFI employs a proprietary scoring algorithm that weighs five critical factors: Order Block strength (validated by volume), Fair Value Gap size and recency, proximity to Liquidity Zones, market structure alignment (BOS/CHoCH), and multi-timeframe confluence. This produces a Smart Money Score (0-100) where readings above 70 represent optimal institutional setup conditions.
🚀Points of Innovation
Volume-Validated Order Block Detection – Only displays Order Blocks when formation candle exceeds customizable volume multiplier (default 1.5x average), filtering weak zones and highlighting true institutional accumulation/distribution
Auto-Mitigation Tracking System – Fair Value Gaps and Order Blocks automatically update status when price mitigates them, with visual distinction between active and filled zones preventing trades on dead levels
Proprietary Smart Money Score Algorithm – Combines weighted factors (OB strength 25%, FVG proximity 20%, Liquidity 20%, Structure 20%, MTF 15%) into single 0-100 confidence rating updating in real-time
ATR-Based Adaptive Calculations – All distance measurements use 14-period Average True Range ensuring consistent function across any instrument, timeframe, or volatility regime without manual recalibration
Dynamic Age Filtering – Automatically removes liquidity levels and FVGs older than configurable thresholds preventing chart clutter while maintaining relevant levels
Multi-Timeframe Confluence Integration – Analyzes higher timeframe bias with customizable multipliers (2-10x) and incorporates HTF trend direction into Smart Money Score for institutional alignment
🔧Core Components
Order Block Engine – Detects institutional supply/demand zones using characteristic patterns (down-move-then-strong-up for bullish, up-move-then-strong-down for bearish) with minimum volume threshold validation, tracks mitigation when price closes through zones
Fair Value Gap Scanner – Identifies price imbalances where current candle's low/high leaves gap with two-candle-prior high/low, filters by minimum size percentage, monitors 50% fill for mitigation status
Liquidity Zone Mapper – Uses pivot high/low detection with configurable lookback to mark swing points where stop losses cluster, extends horizontal lines to visualize sweep targets, manages lifecycle through age-based removal
Market Structure Analyzer – Tracks pivot progression to identify trend through higher-highs/higher-lows (bullish) or lower-highs/lower-lows (bearish), detects Break of Structure and Change of Character for trend/reversal confirmation
Scoring Calculation Engine – Evaluates proximity to nearest Order Blocks using ATR-normalized distance, assesses FVG recency and distance, calculates liquidity proximity with age weighting, combines structure bias and MTF trend into smoothed final score
🔥Key Features
Customizable Display Limits – Control maximum Order Blocks (1-10), Liquidity Zones (1-10), and FVG age (10-200 bars) to maintain clean charts focused on most relevant institutional levels
Gradient Strength Visualization – All zones render with transparency-adjustable coloring where stronger/newer zones appear more solid and weaker/older zones fade progressively providing instant visual hierarchy
Educational Label System – Optional labels identify each zone type (Bullish OB, Bearish OB, Bullish FVG, Bearish FVG, BOS) with color-coded text helping traders learn SMC concepts through practical application
Real-Time Smart Money Score Dashboard – Top-right table displays current score (0-100) with color coding (green >70, yellow 30-70, red <30) plus trend arrow for at-a-glance confidence assessment
Comprehensive Alert Suite – Configurable notifications for Order Block formation, Fair Value Gap detection, Break of Structure events, Change of Character signals, and high Smart Money Score readings (>70)
Buy/Sell Signal Integration – Automatically plots triangle markers when Smart Money Score exceeds 70 with aligned market structure and fresh Order Block detection providing clear entry signals
🎨Visualization
Order Block Boxes – Shaded rectangles extend from formation bar spanning high-to-low of institutional candle, bullish zones in green, bearish in red, with customizable transparency (80-98%)
Fair Value Gap Zones – Rectangular areas marking imbalances, active FVGs display in bright colors with adjustable transparency, mitigated FVGs switch to gray preventing trades on filled zones
Liquidity Level Lines – Dashed horizontal lines extend from pivot creation points, swing highs in bearish color (short targets above), swing lows in bullish color (long targets below), opacity decreases with age
Structure Labels – "BOS" labels appear above/below price when Break of Structure confirmed, colored by direction (green bullish, red bearish), positioned at 1% beyond highs/lows for visibility
Educational Info Panel – Bottom-right table explains key terminology (OB, FVG, BOS, CHoCH) and score interpretation (>70 high probability) with semi-transparent background for readability

✅Best Use Cases
Order Block Retest Entries – After Break of Structure, wait for price retrace into fresh bullish Order Block with Smart Money Score >70, enter long on zone reaction targeting next liquidity level
Fair Value Gap Retracement Trading – When price creates FVG during strong move then retraces, enter as price approaches unfilled gap expecting institutional orders to continue trend
Liquidity Sweep Reversals – Monitor price approaching swing high/low liquidity zones against prevailing Smart Money Score trend, after stop hunt sweep watch for rejection into premium Order Block/FVG
Multi-Timeframe Confluence Setups – Identify alignment when current timeframe Order Block coincides with higher timeframe FVG plus MTF analysis showing matching trend bias
Break of Structure Continuations – After BOS confirms trend direction, trade pullbacks to nearest Order Block or FVG in direction of structure break using Smart Money Score >70 as entry filter
Change of Character Reversal Plays – When CHoCH detected indicating potential reversal, look for Smart Money Score pivot with opposing Order Block formation then enter on structure confirmation
⚠️Limitations
Lagging Pivot Calculations – Pivot-based features (Liquidity Zones, Market Structure) require bars to right of pivot for confirmation, meaning these elements identify levels retrospectively with delay equal to lookback period
Whipsaw in Ranging Markets – During choppy conditions, Order Blocks fail frequently and structure breaks produce false signals as Smart Money Score fluctuates without clear institutional bias, best used in trending markets
Volume Data Dependency – Order Block volume validation requires accurate volume data which may be incomplete on Forex pairs or limited in crypto exchange feeds
Subjectivity in Scoring Weights – Proprietary 25-20-20-20-15 weighting reflects general institutional behavior but may not optimize for specific instruments or market regimes, user cannot adjust factor weights
Visual Complexity on Lower Timeframes – Sub-hour timeframes generate excessive zones creating cluttered charts, requires aggressive display limit reduction and higher minimum thresholds
No Fundamental Integration – Indicator analyzes purely technical price action and volume without incorporating economic events, news catalysts, or fundamental shifts that override technical levels
💡What Makes This Unique
Unified SMC Ecosystem – Unlike indicators displaying Order Blocks OR FVGs OR Liquidity separately, SMFI combines all three institutional concepts plus market structure into single cohesive system
Proprietary Confidence Scoring – Rather than manual setup assessment, automated Smart Money Score quantifies probability by weighting five institutional dimensions into actionable 0-100 rating
Volume-Filtered Quality – Eliminates weak Order Blocks forming without institutional volume confirmation, ensuring displayed zones represent genuine accumulation/distribution
Adaptive Lifecycle Management – Automatically updates mitigation status and removes aged zones preventing trades on dead levels through continuous validity and age monitoring
Educational Integration – Built-in tooltips, labeled zones, and reference panel make indicator functional for both learning Smart Money Concepts and executing strategies
🔬How It Works
Order Block Detection – Scans for patterns where strong directional move follows counter-move creating last down-candle before rally (bullish OB) or last up-candle before sell-off (bearish OB), validates formations only when candle exhibits volume exceeding configurable multiple (default 1.5x) of 20-bar average volume
Fair Value Gap Identification – Compares current candle’s high/low against two-candles-prior low/high to detect price imbalances, calculates gap size as percentage of close and filters micro-gaps below minimum threshold (default 0.3%), monitors whether subsequent price fills 50% triggering mitigation status
Liquidity Zone Mapping – Employs pivot detection using configurable lookback (default 50 bars) to identify swing highs/lows where retail stops cluster, extends horizontal reference lines from pivot creation and applies age-based filtering to remove stale zones
Market Structure Analysis – Tracks pivot progression using structure-specific lookback (default 5 bars) to determine trend, confirms uptrend when new pivot high exceeds previous by minimum move percentage, detects Break of Structure when price breaks recent pivot level, flags Change of Character for potential reversals
Multi-Timeframe Confluence – When enabled, requests security data from higher timeframe (current TF × HTF multiplier, default 4x), compares HTF close against HTF 20-period MA to determine bias, contributes ±50 points to score ensuring alignment with institutional positioning on superior timeframe
Smart Money Score Calculation – Evaluates Order Block component via ATR-normalized distance producing max 100-point contribution weighted at 25%, assesses FVG factor through age penalty and distance at 20% weight, calculates Liquidity proximity at 20%, incorporates structure bias (±50-100 points) at 20%, adds MTF component at 15%, applies 3-period smoothing to reduce volatility
Visual Rendering and Lifecycle – Draws Order Block boxes, Fair Value Gap rectangles with color coding (green/red active, gray mitigated), extends liquidity dashed lines with fade-by-age opacity, plots BOS labels, displays Smart Money Score dashboard, continuously updates checking mitigation conditions and removing elements exceeding age/display limits
💡Note:
The Smart Money Flow Index combines multiple Smart Money Concepts into unified institutional order flow analysis. For optimal results, use the Smart Money Score as confluence filter rather than standalone entry signal – scores above 70 indicate high-probability setups but should be combined with risk management, higher timeframe bias, and market regime understanding.
