Delta Volume Columns Pro [LucF]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator displays volume delta information calculated with intrabar inspection on historical bars, and feed updates when running in realtime. It is designed to run in a pane and can display either stacked buy/sell volume columns or a signal line which can be calculated and displayed in many different ways.
Five different models are offered to reveal different characteristics of the calculated volume delta information. Many options are offered to visualize the calculations, giving you much leeway in morphing the indicator's visuals to suit your needs. If you value delta volume information, I hope you will find the time required to master Delta Volume Columns Pro well worth the investment. I am confident that if you combine a proper understanding of the indicator's information with an intimate knowledge of the volume idiosyncrasies on the markets you trade, you can extract useful market intelligence using this tool.
█ WARNINGS
1. The indicator only works on markets where volume information is available,
Please validate that your symbol's feed carries volume information before asking me why the indicator doesn't plot values.
2. When you refresh your chart or re-execute the script on the chart, the indicator will repaint because elapsed realtime bars will then recalculate as historical bars.
3. Because the indicator uses different modes of calculation on historical and realtime bars, it's critical that you understand the differences between them. Details are provided further down.
4. Calculations using intrabar inspection on historical bars can only be done from some chart timeframes. See further down for a list of supported timeframes.
If the chart's timeframe is not supported, no historical volume delta will display.
█ CONCEPTS
Chart bars
Three different types of bars are used in charts:
1. Historical bars are bars that have already closed when the script executes on them.
2. The realtime bar is the current, incomplete bar where a script is running on an open market. There is only one active realtime bar on your chart at any given time.
The realtime bar is where alerts trigger.
3. Elapsed realtime bars are bars that were calculated when they were realtime bars but have since closed.
When a script re-executes on a chart because the browser tab is refreshed or some of its inputs are changed, elapsed realtime bars are recalculated as historical bars.
Why does this indicator use two modes of calculation?
Historical bars on TradingView charts contain OHLCV data only, which is insufficient to calculate volume delta on them with any level of precision. To mine more detailed information from those bars we look at intrabars , i.e., bars from a smaller timeframe (we call it the intrabar timeframe ) that are contained in one chart bar. If your chart Is running at 1D on a 24x7 market for example, most 1D chart bars will contain 24 underlying 1H bars in their dilation. On historical bars, this indicator looks at those intrabars to amass volume delta information. If the intrabar is up, its volume goes in the Buy bin, and inversely for the Sell bin. When price does not move on an intrabar, the polarity of the last known movement is used to determine in which bin its volume goes.
In realtime, we have access to price and volume change for each update of the chart. Because a 1D chart bar can be updated tens of thousands of times during the day, volume delta calculations on those updates is much more precise. This precision, however, comes at a price:
— The script must be running on the chart for it to keep calculating in realtime.
— If you refresh your chart you will lose all accumulated realtime calculations on elapsed realtime bars, and the realtime bar.
Elapsed realtime bars will recalculate as historical bars, i.e., using intrabar inspection, and the realtime bar's calculations will reset.
When the script recalculates elapsed realtime bars as historical bars, the values on those bars will change, which means the script repaints in those conditions.
— When the indicator first calculates on a chart containing an incomplete realtime bar, it will count ALL the existing volume on the bar as Buy or Sell volume,
depending on the polarity of the bar at that point. This will skew calculations for that first bar. Scripts have no access to the history of a realtime bar's previous updates,
and intrabar inspection cannot be used on realtime bars, so this is the only to go about this.
— Even if alerts only trigger upon confirmation of their conditions after the realtime bar closes, they are repainting alerts
because they would perhaps not have calculated the same way using intrabar inspection.
— On markets like stocks that often have different EOD and intraday feeds and volume information,
the volume's scale may not be the same for the realtime bar if your chart is at 1D, for example,
and the indicator is using an intraday timeframe to calculate on historical bars.
— Any chart timeframe can be used in realtime mode, but plots that include moving averages in their calculations may require many elapsed realtime bars before they can calculate.
You might prefer drastically reducing the periods of the moving averages, or using the volume columns mode, which displays instant values, instead of the line.
Volume Delta Balances
This indicator uses a variety of methods to evaluate five volume delta balances and derive other values from those balances. The five balances are:
1 — On Bar Balance : This is the only balance using instant values; it is simply the subtraction of the Sell volume from the Buy volume on the bar.
2 — Average Balance : Calculates a distinct EMA for both the Buy and Sell volumes, and subtracts the Sell EMA from the Buy EMA.
3 — Momentum Balance : Starts by calculating, separately for both Buy and Sell volumes, the difference between the same EMAs used in "Average Balance" and
an SMA of double the period used for the "Average Balance" EMAs. The difference for the Sell side is subtracted from the difference for the Buy side,
and an RSI of that value is calculated and brought over the −50/+50 scale.
4 — Relative Balance : The reference values used in the calculation are the Buy and Sell EMAs used in the "Average Balance".
From those, we calculate two intermediate values using how much the instant Buy and Sell volumes on the bar exceed their respective EMA — but with a twist.
If the bar's Buy volume does not exceed the EMA of Buy volume, a zero value is used. The same goes for the Sell volume with the EMA of Sell volume.
Once we have our two intermediate values for the Buy and Sell volumes exceeding their respective MA, we subtract them. The final "Relative Balance" value is an ALMA of that subtraction.
The rationale behind using zero values when the bar's Buy/Sell volume does not exceed its EMA is to only take into account the more significant volume.
If both instant volume values exceed their MA, then the difference between the two is the signal's value.
The signal is called "relative" because the intermediate values are the difference between the instant Buy/Sell volumes and their respective MA.
This balance flatlines when the bar's Buy/Sell volumes do not exceed their EMAs, which makes it useful to spot areas where trader interest dwindles, such as consolidations.
The smaller the period of the final value's ALMA, the more easily you will see the balance flatline. These flat zones should be considered no-trade zones.
5 — Percent Balance : This balance is the ALMA of the ratio of the "On Bar Balance" value, i.e., the volume delta balance on the bar (which can be positive or negative),
over the total volume for that bar.
From the balances and marker conditions, two more values are calculated:
1 — Marker Bias : It sums the up/down (+1/‒1) occurrences of the markers 1 to 4 over a period you define, so it ranges from −4 to +4, times the period.
Its calculation will depend on the modes used to calculate markers 3 and 4.
2 — Combined Balances : This is the sum of the bull/bear (+1/−1) states of each of the five balances, so it ranges from −5 to +5.
█ FEATURES
The indicator has two main modes of operation: Columns and Line .
Columns
• In Columns mode you can display stacked Buy/Sell volume columns.
• The buy section always appears above the centerline, the sell section below.
• The top and bottom sections can be colored independently using eight different methods.
• The EMAs of the Buy/Sell values can be displayed (these are the same EMAs used to calculate the "Average Balance").
Line
• Displays one of seven signals: the five balances or one of two complementary values, i.e., the "Marker Bias" or the "Combined Balances".
• You can color the line and its fill using independent calculation modes to pack more information in the display.
You can thus appraise the state of 3 different values using the line itself, its color and the color of its fill.
• A "Divergence Levels" feature will use the line to automatically draw expanding levels on divergence events.
Default settings
Using the indicator's default settings, this is the information displayed:
• The line is calculated on the "Average Balance".
• The line's color is determined by the bull/bear state of the "Percent Balance".
• The line's fill gradient is determined by the advances/declines of the "Momentum Balance".
• The orange divergence dots are calculated using discrepancies between the polarity of the "On Bar Balance" and the chart's bar.
• The divergence levels are determined using the line's level when a divergence occurs.
• The background's fill gradient is calculated on advances/declines of the "Marker Bias".
• The chart bars are colored using advances/declines of the "Relative Balance". Divergences are shown in orange.
• The intrabar timeframe is automatically determined from the chart's timeframe so that a minimum of 50 intrabars are used to calculate volume delta on historical bars.
Alerts
The configuration of the marker conditions explained further is what determines the conditions that will trigger alerts created from this script. Note that simply selecting the display of markers does not create alerts. To create an alert on this script, you must use ALT-A from the chart. You can create multiple alerts triggering on different conditions from this same script; simply configure the markers so they define the trigger conditions for each alert before creating the alert. The configuration of the script's inputs is saved with the alert, so from then on you can change them without affecting the alert. Alert messages will mention the marker(s) that triggered the specific alert event. Keep in mind, when creating alerts on small chart timeframes, that discrepancies between alert triggers and markers displayed on your chart are to be expected. This is because the alert and your chart are running two distinct instances of the indicator on different servers and different feeds. Also keep in mind that while alerts only trigger on confirmed conditions, they are calculated using realtime calculation mode, which entails that if you refresh your chart and elapsed realtime bars recalculate as historical bars using intrabar inspection, markers will not appear in the same places they appeared in realtime. So it's important to understand that even though the alert conditions are confirmed when they trigger, these alerts will repaint.
Let's go through the sections of the script's inputs.
Columns
The size of the Buy/Sell columns always represents their respective importance on the bar, but the coloring mode for tops and bottoms is independent. The default setup uses a standard coloring mode where the Buy/Sell columns are always in the bull/bear color with a higher intensity for the winning side. Seven other coloring modes allow you to pack more information in the columns. When choosing to color the top columns using a bull/bear gradient on "Average Balance", for example, you will have bull/bear colored tops. In order for the color of the bottom columns to continue to show the instant bar balance, you can then choose the "On Bar Balance — Dual Solid Colors" coloring mode to make those bars the color of the winning side for that bar. You can display the averages of the Buy and Sell columns. If you do, its coloring is controlled through the "Line" and "Line fill" sections below.
Line and Line fill
You can select the calculation mode and the thickness of the line, and independent calculations to determine the line's color and fill.
Zero Line
The zero line can display dots when all five balances are bull/bear.
Divergences
You first select the detection mode. Divergences occur whenever the up/down direction of the signal does not match the up/down polarity of the bar. Divergences are used in three components of the indicator's visuals: the orange dot, colored chart bars, and to calculate the divergence levels on the line. The divergence levels are dynamic levels that automatically build from the line's values on divergence events. On consecutive divergences, the levels will expand, creating a channel. This implementation of the divergence levels corresponds to my view that divergences indicate anomalies, hesitations, points of uncertainty if you will. It precludes any attempt to identify a directional bias to divergences. Accordingly, the levels merely take note of divergence events and mark those points in time with levels. Traders then have a reference point from which they can evaluate further movement. The bull/bear/neutral colors used to plot the levels are also congruent with this view in that they are determined by the line's position relative to the levels, which is how I think divergences can be put to the most effective use. One of the coloring modes for the line's fill uses advances/declines in the line after divergence events.
Background
The background can show a bull/bear gradient on six different calculations. As with other gradients, you can adjust its brightness to make its importance proportional to how you use it in your analysis.
Chart bars
Chart bars can be colored using seven different methods. You have the option of emptying the body of bars where volume does not increase, as does my TLD indicator, and you can choose whether you want to show divergences.
Intrabar Timeframe
This is the intrabar timeframe that will be used to calculate volume delta using intrabar inspection on historical bars. You can choose between four modes. The three "Auto-steps" modes calculate, from the chart's timeframe, the intrabar timeframe where the said number of intrabars will make up the dilation of chart bars. Adjustments are made for non-24x7 markets. "Fixed" mode allows you to select the intrabar timeframe you want. Checking the "Show TF" box will display in the lower-right corner the intrabar timeframe used at any given moment. The proper selection of the intrabar timeframe is important. It must achieve maximal granularity to produce precise results while not unduly slowing down calculations, or worse, causing runtime errors. Note that historical depth will vary with the intrabar timeframe. The smaller the timeframe, the shallower historical plots you will be.
Markers
Markers appear when the required condition has been confirmed on a closed bar. The configuration of the markers when you create an alert is what determines when the alert will trigger. Five markers are available:
• Balances Agreement : All five balances are either bullish or bearish.
• Double Bumps : A double bump is two consecutive up/down bars with +/‒ volume delta, and rising Buy/Sell volume above its average.
• Divergence confirmations : A divergence is confirmed up/down when the chosen balance is up/down on the previous bar when that bar was down/up, and this bar is up/down.
• Balance Shifts : These are bull/bear transitions of the selected signal.
• Marker Bias Shifts : Marker bias shifts occur when it crosses into bull/bear territory.
Periods
Allows control over the periods of the different moving averages used to calculate the balances.
Volume Discrepancies
Stock exchanges do not report the same volume for intraday and daily (or higher) resolutions. Other variations in how volume information is reported can also occur in other markets, namely Forex, where volume irregularities can even occur between different intraday timeframes. This will cause discrepancies between the total volume on the bar at the chart's timeframe, and the total volume calculated by adding the volume of the intrabars in that bar's dilation. This does not necessarily invalidate the volume delta information calculated from intrabars, but it tells us that we are using partial volume data. A mechanism to detect chart vs intrabar timeframe volume discrepancies is provided. It allows you to define a threshold percentage above which the background will indicate a difference has been detected.
Other Settings
You can control here the display of the gray dot reminder on realtime bars, and the display of error messages if you are using a chart timeframe that is not greater than the fixed intrabar timeframe, when you use that mode. Disabling the message can be useful if you only use realtime mode at chart timeframes that do not support intrabar inspection.
█ RAMBLINGS
On Volume Delta
Volume is arguably the best complement to interpret price action, and I consider volume delta to be the most effective way of processing volume information. In periods of low-volatility price consolidations, volume will typically also be lower than normal, but slight imbalances in the trend of the buy/sell volume balance can sometimes help put early odds on the direction of the break from consolidation. Additionally, the progression of the volume imbalance can help determine the proximity of the breakout. I also find volume delta and the number of divergences very useful to evaluate the strength of trends. In trends, I am looking for "slow and steady", i.e., relatively low volatility and pauses where price action doesn't look like world affairs are being reassessed. In my personal mythology, this type of trend is often more resilient than high-volatility breakouts, especially when volume balance confirms the general agreement of traders signaled by the low-volatility usually accompanying this type of trend. The volume action on pauses will often help me decide between aggressively taking profits, tightening a stop or going for a longer-term movement. As for reversals, they generally occur in high-volatility areas where entering trades is more expensive and riskier. While the identification of counter-trend reversals fascinates many traders to no end, they represent poor opportunities in my view. Volume imbalances often precede reversals, but I prefer to use volume delta information to identify the areas following reversals where I can confirm them and make relatively low-cost entries with better odds.
On "Buy/Sell" Volume
Buying or selling volume are misnomers, as every unit of volume transacted is both bought and sold by two different traders. While this does not keep me from using the terms, there is no such thing as “buy only” or “sell only” volume. Trader lingo is riddled with peculiarities.
Divergences
The divergence detection method used here relies on a difference between the direction of a signal and the polarity (up/down) of a chart bar. When using the default "On Bar Balance" to detect divergences, however, only the bar's volume delta is used. You may wonder how there can be divergences between buying/selling volume information and price movement on one bar. This will sometimes be due to the calculation's shortcomings, but divergences may also occur in instances where because of order book structure, it takes less volume to increase the price of an asset than it takes to decrease it. As usual, divergences are points of interest because they reveal imbalances, which may or may not become turning points. To your pattern-hungry brain, the divergences displayed by this indicator will — as they do on other indicators — appear to often indicate turnarounds. My opinion is that reality is generally quite sobering and I have no reliable information that would tend to prove otherwise. Exercise caution when using them. Consequently, I do not share the overwhelming enthusiasm of traders in identifying bullish/bearish divergences. For me, the best course of action when a divergence occurs is to wait and see what happens from there. That is the rationale underlying how my divergence levels work; they take note of a signal's level when a divergence occurs, and it's the signal's behavior from that point on that determines if the post-divergence action is bullish/bearish.
Superfluity
In "The Bed of Procrustes", Nassim Nicholas Taleb writes: To bankrupt a fool, give him information . This indicator can display lots of information. While learning to use a new indicator inevitably requires an adaptation period where we put it through its paces and try out all its options, once you have become used to it and decide to adopt it, rigorously eliminate the components you don't use and configure the remaining ones so their visual prominence reflects their relative importance in your analysis. I tried to provide flexible options for traders to control this indicator's visuals for that exact reason — not for window dressing.
█ LIMITATIONS
• This script uses a special characteristic of the `security()` function allowing the inspection of intrabars — which is not officially supported by TradingView.
It has the advantage of permitting a more robust calculation of volume delta than other methods on historical bars, but also has its limits.
• Intrabar inspection only works on some chart timeframes: 3, 5, 10, 15 and 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12 hours, 1 day, 1 week and 1 month.
The script’s code can be modified to run on other resolutions.
• When the difference between the chart’s timeframe and the intrabar timeframe is too great, runtime errors will occur. The Auto-Steps selection mechanisms should avoid this.
• All volume is not created equally. Its source, components, quality and reliability will vary considerably with sectors and instruments.
The higher the quality, the more reliably volume delta information can be used to guide your decisions.
You should make it your responsibility to understand the volume information provided in the data feeds you use. It will help you make the most of volume delta.
█ NOTES
For traders
• The Data Window shows key values for the indicator.
• While this indicator displays some of the same information calculated in my Delta Volume Columns ,
I have elected to make it a separate publication so that traders continue to have a simpler alternative available to them. Both code bases will continue to evolve separately.
• All gradients used in this indicator determine their brightness intensities using advances/declines in the signal—not their relative position in a pre-determined scale.
• Volume delta being relative, by nature, it is particularly well-suited to Forex markets, as it filters out quite elegantly the cyclical volume data characterizing the sector.
If you are interested in volume delta, consider having a look at my other "Delta Volume" indicators:
• Delta Volume Realtime Action displays realtime volume delta and tick information on the chart.
• Delta Volume Candles builds volume delta candles on the chart.
• Delta Volume Columns is a simpler version of this indicator.
For coders
• I use the `f_c_gradientRelativePro()` from the PineCoders Color Gradient Framework to build my gradients.
This function has the advantage of allowing begin/end colors for both the bull and bear colors. It also allows us to define the number of steps allowed for each gradient.
I use this to modulate the gradients so they perform optimally on the combination of the signal used to calculate advances/declines,
but also the nature of the visual component the gradient applies to. I use fewer steps for choppy signals and when the gradient is used on discrete visual components
such as volume columns or chart bars.
• I use the PineCoders Coding Conventions for Pine to write my scripts.
• I used functions modified from the PineCoders MTF Selection Framework for the selection of timeframes.

Currency Strength ALT v1.0Description:
This study is a version of Currency Strength Meter, that utilises TradingViews built-in 8 Currency indices (?XY), rather calculate them from currency pair values. It also utilises the built-in TSI function, the TSI uses moving averages of the underlying momentum of a financial instrument. The advantage of using the Currency Indices for strength is the fact that they are based on multiple Exchange sources and so hopefully making it more representative.
***WARNING*** The TradingView Currency Indices do tend to have gaps between candles especially on the low volume currencies like NZD and AUD, so strength chart can also jump around. I suggest using the indicator with higher TF (4H+) charts.
Sniper Trader — Fast Intraday Strategy-by BillR-9.30.25Use at the risk of loss of your $$$$. This is the test version of what is to come. Tear it up and let me know what changes you want.
Here’s a clean, copy-paste description you can use on TradingView:
---
## Sniper Trader — Fast Intraday Strategy (1–5m)
**Purpose:** Catch quick momentum pops on the 1–5 minute chart, take partials fast, and get flat just as fast. The system blends **trend alignment**, **pullback triggers**, **volume confirmation**, and **ATR-based risk** so entries are tight and exits are mechanical.
### How it works
* **Trend filter:** 8/21 EMA on the chart timeframe; optional **higher-TF (15m/30m)** alignment to stay with the primary move.
* **Pullback trigger:** RSI(overbought) / %K > 80).
* **Momentum candle:** Simple engulfing/momentum check to avoid limp signals.
* **Volume spike:** Current volume > `SMA(volume, lookback) × multiplier` (default 1.8).
* **Non-repainting:** Signals are confirmed on **bar close**.
### Trade management
* **Risk-based sizing:** Position size auto-calculates from **Risk % of Account** and the ATR stop distance.
* **Initial exit plan:** Stop = `ATR × stop_mult`. Two targets: **TP1** at `ATR × tp1_mult` (50% off), **TP2** at `ATR × tp2_mult`.
* **After TP1:** Optional **move stop to breakeven** and **trail** using `ATR × trail_mult` on the remaining size.
* **Guardrails:** Regular-hours session window, **max trades/day**, and **cooldown** after closing a position; optional minimum price filter.
### Inputs you can tune
* EMAs (8/21), RSI length/levels, Stoch %K/%D
* Volume lookback & multiplier
* ATR stop/TP/trailing multipliers, breakeven toggle
* Account size & risk % per trade
* Higher-TF trend filter, session window, max trades/day, cooldown
### Suggested use
* **Timeframes:** 1–5m charts; keep the **HTF filter ON (15–30m)** for cleaner signals.
* **Markets:** Liquid names (SPY, QQQ, AAPL, NVDA) or other high-volume tickers. Avoid thin, jumpy names.
* **Starting presets:**
* Conservative: `vol_mult 2.0+`, `stop 1.2–1.5 ATR`, `TP1 1.0`, `TP2 2.0`, `risk 0.25–0.5%`, `max/day 2–3`.
* Aggressive: `vol_mult 1.5`, `stop 0.8–1.0 ATR`, `TP1 0.8–1.0`, `TP2 1.3–1.6`, `risk 0.5–1.0%`, `max/day 4–6`.
* **Alerts:** Create alerts on “Sniper LONG/SHORT (Strategy)” to push notifications to phone/desktop.
* **Backtesting:** Evaluate 3–6 months per symbol; adjust `vol_mult`, ATR multipliers, and RSI/Stoch levels to the instrument’s volatility.
### Notes
* This is a **tool**, not a guarantee. Always forward-test, respect risk, and avoid trading through major **news/earnings**.
* Works well alongside VWAP/opening-range for context, but those are not required.
**TL;DR:** A fast, rules-driven intraday “sniper” that waits for trend + pullback + volume, then manages the position with ATR-based stops, partials, breakeven, and optional trailing—built to grab the move and get paid quickly.
Pivot Points + VWAP + EMA200 + Fixed Range VP (POC)Indicator description — Pivot Points + VWAP + EMA200 + Fixed Range VP (POC)
Short summary
A composite TradingView indicator (Pine v6) that overlays classic pivot points, session/period VWAP with optional deviation bands, an EMA-200 trend filter, and a fixed-range volume profile with Value Area and Point Of Control (POC). Designed to give a single view of key horizontal levels (pivots, VWAP bands, POC) and trend context to speed intraday and swing trade decisions.
Key features
Multiple Pivot types & anchor periods — Traditional, Fibonacci, Woodie, Classic, DM, Camarilla; anchors from Auto/Daily up to multi-year. Option to calculate from daily values on intraday charts.
Pivot drawing & labels — Draws historical pivot levels with configurable colors, line width, label position (Left/Right) and how many pivot periods to keep. Automatically trims older pivot sets beyond the configured limit.
VWAP + deviation bands — VWAP anchored to Session / Week / Month / Quarter / Year (plus Earnings/Dividends/Splits). Optional bands by Standard Deviation or Percentage (up to 3 multipliers). Option to hide on daily/weekly/monthly (DWM) charts.
EMA-200 trend filter — Plotted as a clear orange line; use to identify major trend bias.
Fixed-range Volume Profile (VP) with POC — Builds a fixed lookback VP over bbars bars, shows up/down volume boxes, value area (percent configurable) and draws the POC line + optional POC label. VP is rendered as boxed histogram with configurable rows and colors.
Performance/robustness safeguards — Handles multi-timeframe pivots, provides clear runtime errors when intraday data is insufficient for requested pivot timeframe, and caps the number of drawn objects to avoid overrun.
Inputs & what they do (high level)
Pivot Settings
Type: pivot formula (Traditional, Fibonacci, etc.).
Pivots Timeframe: Auto / Daily / Weekly / Monthly / ... multi-year.
Number of Pivots Back: how many historical pivot periods to keep.
Use Daily-based Values: when enabled, pivots always use daily OHLC (useful on intraday charts).
Show Labels / Show Prices / Labels Position / Line Width — visual tweaks for pivot lines and labels.
Pivot Levels / Colors — Toggle visibility and color for P, R1..R5, S1..S5 (levels shown depend on pivot type).
VWAP Settings
Hide VWAP on 1D or Above: hides VWAP on daily+ charts.
Anchor Period: Session / Week / Month / Quarter / Year / Decade / Century / Earnings / Dividends / Splits.
VWAP Source (default hlc3) and Offset.
Bands Settings
Bands Mode: Standard Deviation or Percentage.
Multipliers: up to three bands (1×, 2×, 3× by default); toggle visible bands.
Volume Profile (VP)
VP Lookback Bars (bbars): number of bars included in fixed range.
VP Rows (cnum): vertical resolution (number of price bins).
Value Area %: e.g., 70%.
POC Color / Width, Up/Down colors and Show POC Label.
How to use it (practical tips)
Trend filter: use EMA-200 — price above EMA200 = bullish bias, below = bearish bias.
VWAP confluence: intraday trades near VWAP or VWAP bands often have higher confluence. Use the selected anchor (Session for intraday, Week/Month for swing).
Pivot levels for targets & S/Ls: pivot levels (P, R1/R2, S1/S2…) make quick, rule-based targets and stops. Combine pivot + VWAP/POC for stronger S/R.
Volume Profile & POC: POC = single price with highest traded volume in the range — acts as a magnet/support/resistance. Use value area (VA) boundaries to spot acceptance/rejection.
Multi timeframe: choose pivot anchor appropriate to your horizon (Session/Daily for intraday scalps; Weekly/Monthly for swing). If you lack intraday history, enable “Use Daily-based Values” to avoid pivot errors.
Performance note: the fixed-range VP is calculated only on the last bar (barstate.islast) and draws boxes/POC accordingly — the VP will represent the configured lookback ending at the latest bar.
Limitations & gotchas
Intraday pivot calculation needs sufficient history. If you request intraday pivots but the chart lacks enough bars, the script throws a runtime error with guidance.
VP is built only on the last bar (to keep resource usage reasonable). That means the VP boxes and POC are recalculated for the latest lookback window; historical VP boxes are removed each update.
Object count: indicator creates many graphical objects (lines, labels, boxes). The script includes caps and cleanup, but very long backtests or extremely small pivot intervals may still use many objects — adjust “Number of Pivots Back” and VP lookback to manage.
Repainting considerations: pivots use request.security(..., lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on) for daily-based option and time synchronization; be mindful when using historical bar-by-bar automation or backtesting — visual levels are intended for analysis and manual decision-making rather than automated entry triggers without further validation.
Compatibility & installation
Pine Script version: v6. Use on TradingView.
Add to chart: Copy the whole script into TradingView’s Pine editor, save and add to chart. Ensure sufficient chart history for selected pivot/VP settings.
Suggested default workflow (example)
Set Pivot Anchor = Session, Type = Traditional, Use Daily-based Values = off for true intraday pivots.
VWAP Anchor = Session, show Band #1 at 1× for quick mean-reversion zones.
EMA-200 visible (default) to filter trade direction.
VP Lookback Bars ~ 150, Value Area 70% to see a 150-bar market profile and POC.
Trade entries: look for price reaction (rejection / engulfing / volume spike) at pivot/R1/VWAP/POC aligned with EMA-200 trend.
Short blurb (for scripts list / marketplace)
Pivot Points + VWAP + EMA200 + Fixed Range VP (POC) — a compact, all-in-one overlay that combines classic pivot levels, session-anchored VWAP with deviation bands, a 200-period EMA trend filter, and a fixed-range volume profile with Value Area and POC. Built for intraday and swing traders who want consolidated horizontal structure and volume context on one chart.
Greer Gap# Greer Gap Indicator (No mitigation: i.e. removing false signals)
## Summary
The **Greer Gap Indicator** identifies **Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)** and introduces specialized **Greer Bull Gaps (Blue)** and **Greer Bear Gaps (Orange)** to highlight high-probability trading opportunities. Unlike traditional FVG indicators, it avoids hindsight bias by not removing historical gaps based on future price action, ensuring transparency in signal accuracy. Built upon LuxAlgo’s FVG logic, it adds unique filtering: only the first Greer Gap after an opposite gap is plotted if its level (min for Bull, max for Bear) is not higher/lower than the previous Greer Gap of the same type, while all valid gaps are recorded for comparison. Traders can use these gaps as support/resistance or entry signals, customizable via timeframe, look back, and display options.
## Description
This indicator detects and displays **Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)** on the chart, with a focus on specialized **Greer Gaps**:
- **Bullish Gaps (Green)**: Areas where the low of the current candle is above the high of a previous candle (look back period), indicating potential upward momentum.
- **Bearish Gaps (Red)**: Areas where the high of the current candle is below the low of a previous candle, indicating potential downward momentum.
- **Greer Bull Gaps (Blue)**: A bullish gap that is above the latest bearish gap's max. Only the first such gap after a bearish gap is plotted if it meets criteria (not higher than the previous Greer Bull Gap's min), but all valid ones are recorded for comparison.
- **Greer Bear Gaps (Orange)**: A bearish gap that is below the latest bullish gap's min. Only the first such gap after a bullish gap is plotted if it meets criteria (not lower than the previous Greer Bear Gap's max), but all valid ones are recorded.
## How It Works
The script uses a dynamic look back period to detect FVGs. It maintains a record of all detected gaps and applies additional logic for Greer Gaps:
- **Greer Bull Gaps**: Checks if the new bullish gap's min is above the latest bearish gap's max. Plots only if it's the first since the last bearish gap and its min is <= previous Greer Bull min (or first one).
- **Greer Bear Gaps**: Checks if the new bearish gap's max is below the latest bullish gap's min. Plots only if it's the first since the last bullish gap and its max is >= previous Greer Bear max (or first one).
- **Resets**: A new bearish gap resets the Greer Bull Gap flag, and a new bullish gap resets the Greer Bear Gap flag.
## How to Use
- **Timeframe**: Set a higher timeframe (e.g., 'D' for daily) to detect gaps from that timeframe on the current chart.
- **Look back Period**: Adjust to change gap detection sensitivity (default: 34). Use 2 if you want to compare to LuxAlgo
- **Extend**: Controls how far right the gap boxes extend.
- **Show Options**: Toggle visibility of all bullish/bearish gaps or Greer Gaps.
- **Colors**: Customize colors for each gap type.
- **Application**: Use Greer Gaps as potential support/resistance levels or entry signals, but combine with other analysis for confirmation.
## Originality and Credits
This script is inspired by and builds upon the **"Fair Value Gap "** indicator by LuxAlgo (available on TradingView: ()).
**Credits**: Thanks to LuxAlgo for the core FVG detection logic.
**Significant Changes**:
- Added **Greer Bull and Bear Gap** logic for filtered, directional gaps with reset mechanisms.
- Introduced recording of all valid Greer Gaps without plotting all, to compare levels without hindsight bias.
- **No mitigation/removal of gaps**: Unlike LuxAlgo's approach, which mitigates (removes or alters) gaps based on future price action (e.g., when filled), this can create a hindsight bias where incorrect signals disappear over time. If a signal is used for a trade and later removed due to new data, it doesn't reflect real-time performance accurately. The Greer Gap avoids this by using gap comparisons to validate signals without altering historical boxes, ensuring transparency in when signals were right or wrong.
MACD StrategyOverview
The "MACD Strategy" is a straightforward trading strategy tested for BTCUSDT Futures on the 1-minute timeframe, leveraging the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator to identify momentum-based buy and sell opportunities. Developed with input from expert trading analyst insights, this strategy combines technical precision with risk management, making it suitable for traders of all levels on platforms like TradingView. It focuses on capturing trend reversals and momentum shifts, with clear visual cues and automated alerts for seamless integration with trading bots (e.g., Bitget webhooks).
#### How It Works
This strategy uses the MACD indicator to generate trading signals based on momentum and trend direction:
- **Buy Signal**: Triggered when the MACD line crosses above the signal line, and the MACD histogram turns positive (above zero). This suggests increasing bullish momentum.
- **Sell Signal**: Triggered when the MACD line crosses below the signal line, and the MACD histogram turns negative (below zero), indicating growing bearish momentum.
Once a signal is detected, the strategy opens a position (long for buy, short for sell) with a position size calculated based on your risk tolerance. It includes a stop-loss to limit losses and a take-profit to lock in gains, both dynamically adjusted using the Average True Range (ATR) for adaptability to market volatility.
#### Key Features
- **MACD-Based Signals**: Relies solely on MACD for entry points, plotted in a separate pane for clear momentum analysis.
- **Risk Management**: Automatically calculates position size based on a percentage of your account balance and sets stop-loss and take-profit levels using ATR multipliers and a risk:reward ratio.
- **Visual Feedback**: Plots entry, stop-loss, and take-profit lines on the chart with labeled markers for easy tracking.
- **Alerts**: Includes Bitget webhook-compatible alerts for automated trading, notifying you of buy and sell signals in real-time.
#### Input Parameters
- **Account Balance**: Default 10000 – Set your initial trading capital to determine position sizing.
- **MACD Fast Length**: Default 12 – The short-term EMA period for MACD sensitivity.
- **MACD Slow Length**: Default 26 – The long-term EMA period for MACD calculation.
- **MACD Signal Length**: Default 9 – The smoothing period for the signal line.
- **Risk Per Trade (%)**: Default 3.0 – The percentage of your account balance risked per trade (e.g., 3% of 10000 = 300).
- **Risk:Reward Ratio**: Default 3.0 – The ratio of potential profit to risk (e.g., 3:1 means risking 1 to gain 3).
- **SL Multiplier**: Default 1.0 – Multiplies ATR to set the stop-loss distance (e.g., 1.0 x ATR).
- **TP Multiplier**: Default 3.0 – Multiplies ATR to set the take-profit distance, adjusted by the risk:reward ratio.
- **Line Length (bars)**: Default 25 – Duration in bars for displaying trade lines on the chart.
- **Label Position**: Default 'left' – Position of text labels (left or right) relative to trade lines.
- **ATR Period**: Default 14 – The number of periods for calculating ATR to measure volatility.
#### How to Use
1. **Add to Chart**: Load the "MACD Strategy" as a strategy and the "MACD Indicator" as a separate indicator on your TradingView chart (recommended for BTCUSDT Futures on the 1-minute timeframe).
2. **Customize Settings**: Adjust the input parameters based on your risk tolerance and market conditions. For BTCUSDT Futures, consider reducing `Risk Per Trade (%)` during high volatility (e.g., 1%) or increasing `SL Multiplier` for wider stops.
3. **Visual Analysis**: Watch the main chart for trade entry lines (green for buy, red for sell), stop-loss (red), and take-profit (green) lines with labels. Use the MACD pane below to confirm momentum shifts.
4. **Set Alerts**: Create alerts in TradingView for "Buy Signal" and "Sell Signal" to automate trades via Bitget webhooks.
5. **Backtest and Optimize**: Test the strategy on historical BTCUSDT Futures 1-minute data to fine-tune parameters. The short timeframe requires quick execution, so monitor closely for slippage or latency.
#### Tips for Success
- **Market Conditions**: This strategy performs best in trending markets on the 1-minute timeframe. Avoid choppy conditions where MACD crossovers may produce false signals.
- **Risk Management**: Start with the default 3% risk per trade and adjust downward (e.g., 1%) during volatile periods like BTCUSDT news events. The 3:1 risk:reward ratio targets consistent profitability.
- **Timeframe**: Optimized for 1-minute charts; switch to 5-minute or 15-minute for less noise if needed.
- **Confirmation**: Cross-check MACD signals with price action or support/resistance levels for higher accuracy on BTCUSDT Futures.
#### Limitations
- This strategy relies solely on MACD, so it may lag in fast-moving or sideways markets. Consider adding a secondary filter (e.g., RSI) if needed.
- Stop-loss and take-profit are ATR-based and may need adjustment for BTCUSDT Futures’ high volatility, especially during leverage trading.
#### Conclusion
The "MACD Strategy" offers a simple yet effective way to trade momentum shifts using the MACD indicator, tested for BTCUSDT Futures on the 1-minute timeframe, with robust risk management and visual tools. Whether you’re scalping crypto futures or exploring short-term trends, this strategy provides a solid foundation for automated or manual trading.

ConcatenatedAlertsHi all!
This library is useful if you want to concatenate every tick alert for sending on bar close. The 'alert()' function, provided by Tradingview, with the 'freq' parameter set to 'alert.freq_once_per_bar_close' only fires when the realtime bar closes. So if something has happened intrabar, the alert wont be sent.
This library concatenates all alert messages during the bar and sends them on bar close with a header saying how many messages it contains.
It's useful in many cases, but here are a few examples:
When you want alerts for a zone having a breakout (with a candle close) and another one being entered, like this:
When a candle breaks through 2, or more, lines. Like in this example:
There are of course more useful use cases, but above is 2 examples.
The library uses an own enum saying 'alert.freq_all', 'alert.freq_once_per_bar' and 'alert.freq_once_per_bar_close'. The value of this enumeration represents how often an alert will be sent. 'alert.freq_all' and 'alert.freq_once_per_bar' will behave as the once in the 'alert()' function provided by Tradingview. No concatenatination will take place in this case. However, when 'alert.freq_once_per_bar_close' is set, concatenatination will happen with all alert messages during the bar and sent on bar close. Helper functions can be used for both the string value used by the 'alert()' function by Tradingview and this enum type. Example code is provided in the source code, with the usage of input values for both this string and the enumeration.
Hope this is of help!
Concatenate(a_lert, message)
Concatenates all alert messages (called on every tick) to fire all of them with 'Alert()'.
Parameters:
a_lert (Alert) : The 'Alert' object to be used for the alert messages concatination.
message (string) : The string message to be added to the bar alert.
Alert(a_lert)
When the 'Alert.Frequency' is set to fire on the current tick, this function will concatenate all messages on the current bar and fire an alert. Concatenation will occur if 'alert.freq_once_per_bar_close' is set on 'a_lert.Frequency' separated by new lines and a header saying how many messages the bar contains.
Parameters:
a_lert (Alert) : The 'Alert' object to be used for the alert messages concatination and all its 'Messages' will be alerted.
Create(frequency)
Helper function to create an 'Alert' object.
Parameters:
frequency (series Frequency) : The 'Frequency' in the created 'Alert' object.
Returns: The 'Alert' object that can be used for concatination.
CreateFromAlertFreq(alertFreq)
Helper function to convert 'alert.freq_all', 'alert.freq_once_per_bar' or 'lert.freq_once_per_bar_close'.
Parameters:
alertFreq (string) : The 'alert.freq_all', 'alert.freq_once_per_bar' or 'lert.freq_once_per_bar_close' to convert to 'Frequency' enum.
Returns: The 'Alert' object that can be used for concatination.
Alert
Holds all the values for the 'Alert' to be used.
Fields:
Messages (array) : Holds the alert messages within the current bar that will be sent according to 'Frequency'.
Frequency (series Frequency) : The frequency for the final alert. One of 'alert.freq_all', 'alert.freq_once_per_bar' or 'alert.freq_once_per_bar_close'. If 'alert.freq_all' is set the alert messages will be fired on each tick and no concatination will occure. The same when 'alert.freq_once_per_bar' is set, but the alert will only fire once per bar. If 'alert.freq_once_per_bar_close' is set concatenation will occure before sending an alert (with all concatenated messages) on bar close.
SkipAddition (series bool) : Will skip addition of messages. Used internally if 'Frequency' is 'alert.freq_once_per_bar'.

Descriptive message about the signal
Peak & Valley Screener RadarThis Pine Script indicator is designed to help traders and investors analyze the percentage distance of stock prices from their recent All-Time High (ATH) and All-Time Low (ALH) over a user-defined number of bars.
It functions as a multi-stock screener, scanning a customizable list of stocks (default: 40 BIST 500 stocks) and displaying results in a dynamic table on the chart.
The script identifies stocks that have pulled back more than a specified percentage from their ATH (potential buying opportunities) or risen less than a specified percentage from their ALH (potential caution zones).
Key Features:
Customizable Stock List: Users can input a comma-separated list of stock tickers (e.g., "AAPL,GOOGL,MSFT") to scan any symbols available on TradingView.
User-Defined Parameters: Adjust the lookback period (bars back, default 250), ATH pullback threshold (default 10%), and ALH rise threshold (default 10%).
Dynamic Table Display: Results are shown in a table with two columns: "Distance to TOP" (ATH pullbacks in red) and "Distance to BOTTOM" (ALH rises in green). The table includes input parameters for quick reference and can be positioned anywhere on the chart (top/bottom left/center/right).
Optional Plots: Toggle plots to visualize the percentage distances for the current chart symbol (red for ATH, green for ALH).
Efficient Data Handling: Uses request.security with tuples for optimized multi-symbol data fetching, supporting up to ~80 stocks without exceeding Pine Script limits (adjust table rows if needed for more).
Real-Time Updates: The table updates only on the last bar for performance efficiency.
How It Works:
The script calculates the highest high and lowest low over the specified bars for each stock.
It computes the percentage difference from the current close: negative for ATH (pullback) and positive for ALH (rise).
Stocks meeting the thresholds are listed in the table with their exact percentages.
Usage Tips:
Apply this indicator to any chart (e.g., a BIST index or stock) to run the screener in the background.
Ideal for swing traders scanning for undervalued stocks near ATH or overbought near ALH.
Note: Performance may vary with large stock lists due to TradingView's security call limits (~40-50 calls per script). Test with smaller lists if needed.
You can bypass the 40-stock limit by adding the indicator twice to the chart, entering 40 different stocks in the second indicator and setting a different table position from the first one, allowing you to scan 80 stocks simultaneously. In fact, this way, you can scan as many stocks as your plan's limits allow.

LTHB & HTLB Zones with AlertsIn price action trading, the Lowest Tick of the Highest Bar (LTHB) and the Highest Tick of the Lowest Bar (HTLB) are important concepts for support/resistance identification, trend exhaustion, and reversal confirmation. Here's what they mean and why they matter:
🔹 Definitions
1. Lowest Tick of the Highest Bar (LTHB):
The lowest price (tick) of the bar (candlestick) with the highest high in a recent price swing.
Significance: It marks the support inside an upward swing. If price breaks below this, it often indicates loss of upward momentum or reversal.
2. Highest Tick of the Lowest Bar (HTLB):
The highest price of the bar with the lowest low in a swing.
Significance: It acts as a resistance inside a downward swing. If price moves above this, it can signal a bullish reversal.
🔸 Why Are They Significant?
Concept LTHB HTLB
Trend Reversal - Break below LTHB → possible bearish reversal Break above HTLB → possible bullish reversal
Swing Confirmation -Holding above LTHB → continuation of uptrend Holding below HTLB → continuation of downtrend
Trap Detection - Stop hunts often occur just below LTHB Stop hunts often occur just above HTLB
Risk Management -Acts as logical stop-loss in long trades Acts as logical stop-loss in short trades
🔸 Uses in Strategy
1. Breakout Traders use these levels as entry triggers.
2. Reversal Traders look for price failing to hold these levels for early reversal signs.
3. Structure-Based Traders use them to confirm higher highs/lower lows.
4. Stop Placement: Tight stops just beyond LTHB/HTLB help manage risk in swing trades.
🔔 How to Set Alerts in TradingView:
Add the script to your chart.
Open the "⚠️ Alerts" tab.
Click "Create Alert".
In the "Condition" dropdown, select one of:
Enter LTHB Zone
Exit LTHB Zone
Enter HTLB Zone
Exit HTLB Zone
Set desired alert frequency (e.g., once per bar or once).
Click Create.
Pair TradingPAIR TRADING
Description:
This indicator is a simple and intuitive tool for rotating between two assets based on their relative price ratio. By comparing the prices of Asset A and Asset B, it plots a “ratio line” (gray) with dynamic upper and lower boundaries (red and blue).
When the ratio reaches the red line, Asset A is expensive → rotate out of A and into B.
When the ratio touches the blue line, Asset A is cheap → rotate back into A.
The chart also shows:
🔹 Background highlights for visual cues
🔹 “Rotate to A” or “Rotate to B” markers for easy decisions
🔹 A live summary table with mean ratio, upper/lower boundaries, and current ratio
How to Use:
Select Asset A and Asset B in the settings.
Adjust the Lookback Period and Threshold if needed.
Watch the gray ratio line as it moves:
Above red line? → Consider rotating into B
Below blue line? → Consider rotating into A
Use the background color changes and rotation labels to spot clear rotation opportunities!
Why Pair Trading?
Pair trading is a powerful way to manage a portfolio because it neutralizes market direction risk and focuses on relative value.
By rotating between correlated assets, you can:
Smooth out returns
Avoid holding a weak asset too long
Capture reversion when assets diverge too far
This approach can enhance risk-adjusted returns and help keep your portfolio balanced and nimble!
How to Pick Pairs:
Choose assets with strong correlation or similar drivers.
Look for common trends (sector, macro).
Start with assets you know best (high-conviction ideas).
Make sure both have good liquidity for reliable trading!
TO HELP FIND CORRELATED ASSETS:
Use the Correlation Coefficient indicator in TradingView:
Click Indicators
Search for “Correlation Coefficient”
Add it to your chart
Input the symbol of the second asset (e.g., if you’re on MSTR, input TSLA).
This plots the rolling correlation coefficient — super helpful!
Pair trading can turn big swings into steady rotations and help you stay active even when the market is choppy. It’s a simple, practical approach to keep your portfolio balanced.

Directional Movement Index (DMI) + AlertsThis is a Study with associated visual indicators and Bullish/Bearish Alerts for Directional Movement (DMI). It consists of an Average Directional Index (ADX), Plus Directional Indicator (+DI) and Minus Directional Indicator (-DI).
Published by J. Welles Wilder in 1978 for use with currencies and commodities which are typically more volatile than stocks and have stronger trends.
Development Notes
---------------------------
This indicator, and most of the descriptions below, were derived largely from the TradingView reference manual. Feedback and suggestions for improvement are more than welcome, as well are recommended Input settings and best practices for use.
tradingview.com/chart/?solution=43000502250
Strategy Description
---------------------------
ADX defines whether or not there is a trend present; +DI and -DI compliment the ADX by taking direction into account. An ADX above 25 indicates a strong trend, and a Bullish alert is subsequently triggered when +DI is above -DI and a Bearish alert when -DI is above +DI.
Note that the Bullish or Bearish crossover alert will only trigger if ADX is simultaneously above 25 during the crossover event. If ADX later rises to 25 and +DI is still greater than -DI, or -DI greater than +DI, then a delayed alert will not trigger by design.
Basic Use
---------------------------
Acceptable DMI values are up to the trader's interpretation and may change depending on the financial instrument being examined. Recommend not changing any default values without being first familiar with their purpose and impact on the indicator at large.
Confidence in price action and trend is higher when two or more indicators are in agreement -- therefore we recommend not using this indicator by itself to determine entry or exit trade opportunities.
Recommend also choosing 'Once Per Bar Close' when creating alerts.
Inputs
---------------------------
ADX Smoothing - the time period to be used in calculating the ADX which has a smoothing component (14 is the Default).
DI Length - the time period to be used in calculating the DI (14 is the Default).
Key Level - any trade with the ADX above the key level is a strong indicator that it is trending (23 to 25 is the suggested setting).
Sensitivity - an incremental variable to test whether the past n candles are in the same bullish or bearish state before triggering a delayed crossover alert (3 is the Default). Filter out some noise and reduces active alerts.
Show ADX Option - two visual styles are provided for user preference, a visible ADX line or a background overlay (green or red when ADX is above the key level, for bullish or bearish, and gray when below).
Color Candles - an option to transpose the bullish and bearish crossovers to the main candle bars. Can be turned off in the Style Tab by deselecting 'Bar Colors'. Dark blue is bullish, dark purple is bearish, and the black inner color is neutral. Note that the outer red and green border will still be distinguished by whether each individual candle is bearish or bullish during the specified timeframe.
Indicator Visuals
---------------------------
Bullish or Bearish plot based on DMI strategy (ADX and +/-DI values).
Visual cues are intended to improve analysis and decrease interpretation time during trading, as well as to aid in understanding the purpose of this study and how its inclusion can benefit a comprehensive trading strategy.
Trend Strength
---------------------------
To analyze trend strength, the focus should be on the ADX line and not the +DI or -DI lines. An ADX reading above 25 indicates a strong trend, while a reading below 20 indicates a weak or non-existent trend. A reading between those two values would be considered indeterminable. Though what is truly a strong trend or a weak trend depends on the financial instrument being examined; historical analysis can assist in determining appropriate values.
Bullish DI Cross
---------------------------
1. ADX must be over 25 (strong trend) (value is determined by the trader)
2. +DI cross above -DI
3. Set Stop Loss at the current day's low (any +DI cross-backs below -DI should be ignored)
4. Set trailing stop if ADX strengthens (i.e., signal rises)
Bearish DI Cross
---------------------------
1. ADX must be over 25 (strong trend) (value is determined by the trader)
2. -DI cross above +DI
3. Set Stop Loss at the current day's high (any -DI cross-backs below +DI should be ignored)
4. Set trailing stop if ADX strengthens (i.e., signal rises)
Disclaimer
---------------------------
This post and the script are not intended to provide any financial advice. Trade at your own risk.
No known repainting.
Version 1.1
-------------------------
- Added multi-timeframe resolution using PineCoders secure security function to eliminate repainting.
- Cleaned up option for selecting ADX view; and added a colored line as a choice, based on same bullish, bearish, or neutral colors as the background.
- Added exit crossover indicator to aid in an overall strategy development. This ability pairs better with my CHOP Zone Entry Strategy which relies on DMI Exits. Note that exit conditions don't employ the sensitivity variable. Green labels are for Bullish exits and red are for Bearish.
-- Exit condition is triggered if in an active Bullish or Bearish position and ADX drops below 25, Or if either the -DI crosses above +DI (for previously Bullish) or +DI crosses above -DI (for previously Bearish).
- Added reverse position determination. Triggers when a Bullish entry occurs on the same candle as a Bearish exit, or vice versa. Green labels are for Bullish reverses and red are for Bearish.
- Added selectable option to choose visible labels -- Bearish, Bullish, Both, Exits, Reverses, or All.
-- Note that a reverse label will only show if the opposing entry and exit labels are set to show, otherwise the reverse will revert to the appropriate entry or exit on the chart.
- Added alerts to account for new conditions.
-- Note that alerts for crossovers, exits, and reverses will only be triggered if the associated labels are selected to be shown (i.e., what you choose to see on the chart is what you will be alerted to).
Version 1.2
-------------------------
- Changed exit condition to be decided on by whether ADX is below 25 and on a +/-DI crossover. Versus being either or. The previous version had too many false triggers. This variety can now show multiple Bullish or Bearish alerts before an Exit condition too. I'm tempted to simply make this condition based on ADX, and not DI … thoughts? See lines 138 and 139.
- Updated the Background view to have deeper shades of colors dependent upon the ADX trend strength.
- Added an Oscillator view for the ADX and momentum computations to color the histogram by trend. DI lines are hidden.
-- If ADX is Bullish, then the oscillator is colored light green in an uptrend and dark green in a downtrend; if Bearish, then its light red in an uptrend and dark redin a downtrend; if adx is below key level, then it is light gray in a downtrend and dark grey in the uptrend.
- Added option to Hide ADX in case only the Directional lines are desired. This could be useful if you would like to have the ADX oscillator in one panel and +/-DI crossovers in another.
- Added a Columnar view for the ADX. DI lines are hidden. This view is really simple and compact, with the trend strength still easily understood. Colors are the same as for the oscillator -- the deeper the shade of green or red, then the higher the ADX trend strength level.
- Added a Trend Strength label.
ADX Trend Strength Trade (Y/N) Setup Types
0 to 10 = Barely Breathing N N/A
10 to 20 = Weak Trend Y Range/Pre-Breakout
20 to 30 = Potentially Starting to Trend Y Early Stage Trend
30 to 50 = Strong Trend Y Ride the Wave
50 to 75 = Very Strong Trend N Exhaustion
75 to 100 = Extremely Strong Trend N N/A
Version 1.3
-------------------------
Updated to Pine Script v5 to resolve errors from the deprecated v4 version.
This is a reissue of a previously published script that was hidden due to a v4 compatibility issue.

ETF Builder & Backtest System [TradeDots]Create, analyze, and monitor your own custom “ETF-like” portfolio directly on TradingView. This script merges up to 10 different assets with user-defined weightings into a single composite chart, allowing you to see how your personalized portfolio would have performed historically. It is an original tool designed to help traders and investors quickly gauge risk and return profiles without leaving the TradingView platform.
📝 HOW IT WORKS
1. Custom Portfolio Construction
Multiple Assets : Combine up to 10 different stocks, ETFs, cryptocurrencies, or other symbols.
User-Defined Weights : Allocate each asset a percentage weight (e.g., 15% in AAPL, 10% in MSFT, etc.).
Single Composite Value : The script calculates a weighted “ETF-style” price, effectively simulating a merged portfolio curve on your chart.
2. Performance Tracking & Return Analysis
Automatic History Capture : The indicator records each asset’s starting price when it first appears in your chosen date range.
Rolling Updates : As time progresses, all asset prices are continually evaluated and the portfolio value is updated in real time.
Buy & Hold Returns : See how each asset—and the overall portfolio—performed from the “start” date to the most recent bar.
Annualized Return : Automatically calculates CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) to help visualize performance over varying timescales.
3. Table & Visual Output
Performance Table : A comprehensive table displays individual asset returns, annualized returns, and portfolio totals.
Normalized Chart Plot : The composite ETF value is scaled to 100 at the start date, making it easy to compare relative growth or decline.
Optional Time Filter : You can define a specific date range (Start/End Dates) to focus on a particular period or to limit historical data.
⚙️ KEY FEATURES
1. Flexible Asset Selection
Choose any symbols from multiple asset classes. The script will only run calculations when data is available—no need to worry about missing quotes.
2. Dynamic Table Reporting
Start Price for each asset
Percentage Weight in the portfolio
Total Return (%) and Annualized Return (%)
3. Simple Backtesting Logic
This script takes a straightforward Buy & Hold perspective. Once the start date is reached, the portfolio remains static until the end date, so you can quickly assess hypothetical growth.
4. Plot Customization
Toggle the main “ETF” plot on/off.
Alter the visual style for tables and text.
Adjust the time filter to limit or extend your performance measurement window.
🚀 HOW TO USE IT
1. Add the Script
Search for “ETF Builder & Backtest System ” in the Indicators & Strategies tab or manually add it to your chart after saving it in your Pine Editor.
2. Configure Inputs
Enable Time Filter : Choose whether to restrict the analysis to a particular date range.
Start & End Date : Define the period you want to measure performance over (e.g., from 2019-12-31 to 2025-01-01).
Assets & Weights : Enter each symbol and specify a percentage weight (up to 10 assets).
Display Options : Pick where you want the Table to appear and choose background/text colors.
3. Interpret the Table & Plots
Asset Rows : Each asset’s ticker, weighting, start price, and performance metrics.
ETF Total Row : Summarizes total weighting, composite starting value, and overall returns.
Normalized Plot : Tracks growth/decline of the combined portfolio, starting at 100 on the chart.
4. Refine Your Strategy
Compare how different weights or a new mix of assets would have performed over the same period.
Assess if certain assets contribute disproportionately to your returns or volatility.
Use the results to guide allocations in your real trading or paper trading accounts.
❗️LIMITATIONS
1. Buy & Hold Only
This script does not handle rebalancing or partial divestments. Once the portfolio starts, weights remain fixed throughout the chosen timeframe.
2. No Reinvestment Tracking
Dividends or other distributions are not factored into performance.
3. Data Availability
If historical data for a particular asset is unavailable on TradingView, related results may display as “N/A.”
4. Market Regimes & Volatility
Past performance does not guarantee similar future behavior. Markets can change rapidly, which may render historical backtests less predictive over time.

Trend Breakout [Uncle Sam Trading]Trend Breakout Indicator
Overview
The Trend Breakout Indicator is a powerful, non-repainting tool designed to help traders identify high-probability breakout and trend reversal setups on any market and timeframe. By leveraging pivot points, this indicator draws dynamic support and resistance channels, highlights counter-trend breakouts, and provides visual cues for market direction. It’s ideal for traders looking to simplify their analysis while targeting key price levels for entries and exits.
Key Features
Pivot-Based Channels: Draws a red upper channel (resistance) and a green lower channel (support) by connecting recent pivot highs and lows.
Counter-Trend Breakout Signals:
Blue “CT Breakup” signal (▲) when the price breaks above the upper channel during a downtrend, indicating a potential reversal or pullback.
Orange “CT Breakdown” signal (▼) when the price breaks below the lower channel during an uptrend, signaling a potential downmove.
Trend Visualization: Background color shifts to green for uptrends and red for downtrends, making it easy to gauge market direction.
Customizable Settings: Adjust pivot detection sensitivity with “Pivot Left Bars” (default: 5) and “Pivot Right Bars” (default: 1), and control channel extension with “Channel Extension Bars” (default: 50).
Optional Trend Signals: Enable “Show Trend Change Signals” to display trend shifts with green (uptrend) or red (downtrend) arrows.
Alert Conditions: Set alerts for counter-trend breakouts and trend changes directly on TradingView.
Example Performance (BTCUSDT, 1-Hour Chart)
On the BTCUSDT 1-hour chart:
A “CT Breakdown” signal appeared on April 6 at 8:00 AM at $82,700, followed by a drop to $74,400 within hours—a 10% move.
A “CT Breakup” signal occurred on April 9 at 1:00 AM at $76,600, leading to a rally to $86,600 in a few hours—a 9% gain.
These examples highlight the indicator’s ability to spot significant price movements, though results depend on market conditions, your trading style, and risk management.
Settings
Pivot Left Bars (default: 5): Number of bars to the left for pivot detection.
Pivot Right Bars (default: 1): Number of bars to the right for pivot confirmation (ensures non-repainting signals).
Channel Extension Bars (default: 50): How far the channels extend to the right.
Show Pivot Points (default: true): Displays small triangles at pivot highs (maroon) and lows (navy).
Show Counter-Trend Breakout Signals (default: true): Shows CT Breakup and CT Breakdown signals.
Show Trend Change Signals (default: false): Displays trend shift arrows when enabled.
How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart via TradingView’s indicator library.
Adjust the settings to match your trading style and timeframe.
Watch for “CT Breakup” and “CT Breakdown” signals to identify potential trade setups.
Use the background color (green/red) to confirm the current trend.
Set alerts for breakouts or trend changes to stay updated on key signals.
Always combine with proper risk management and your own analysis—past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
Notes
The indicator is non-repainting, meaning signals are confirmed and won’t disappear after they form.
Works on any market (crypto, forex, stocks) and timeframe, such as the BTCUSDT 1-hour chart shown.
Performance varies based on market volatility and your trading strategy.

PowerZone Trading StrategyExplanation of the PowerZone Trading Strategy for Your Users
The PowerZone Trading Strategy is an automated trading strategy that detects strong price movements (called "PowerZones") and generates signals to enter a long (buy) or short (sell) position, complete with predefined take profit and stop loss levels. Here’s how it works, step by step:
1. What is a PowerZone?
A "PowerZone" (PZ) is a zone on the chart where the price has shown a significant and consistent movement over a specific number of candles (bars). There are two types:
Bullish PowerZone (Bullish PZ): Occurs when the price rises consistently over several candles after an initial bearish candle.
Bearish PowerZone (Bearish PZ): Occurs when the price falls consistently over several candles after an initial bullish candle.
The code analyzes:
A set number of candles (e.g., 5, adjustable via "Periods").
A minimum percentage move (adjustable via "Min % Move for PowerZone") to qualify as a strong zone.
Whether to use the full candle range (highs and lows) or just open/close prices (toggle with "Use Full Range ").
2. How Does It Detect PowerZones?
Bullish PowerZone:
Looks for an initial bearish candle (close below open).
Checks that the next candles (e.g., 5) are all bullish (close above open).
Ensures the total price movement exceeds the minimum percentage set.
Defines a range: from the high (or open) to the low of the initial candle.
Bearish PowerZone:
Looks for an initial bullish candle (close above open).
Checks that the next candles are all bearish (close below open).
Ensures the total price movement exceeds the minimum percentage.
Defines a range: from the high to the low (or close) of the initial candle.
These zones are drawn on the chart with lines: green or white for bullish, red or blue for bearish, depending on the color scheme ("DARK" or "BRIGHT").
3. When Does It Enter a Trade?
The strategy waits for a breakout from the PowerZone range to enter a trade:
Buy (Long): When the price breaks above the high of a Bullish PowerZone.
Sell (Short): When the price breaks below the low of a Bearish PowerZone.
The position size is set to 100% of available equity (adjustable in the code).
4. Take Profit and Stop Loss
Take Profit (TP): Calculated as a multiple (adjustable via "Take Profit Factor," default 1.5) of the PowerZone height. For example:
For a buy, TP = Entry price + (PZ height × 1.5).
For a sell, TP = Entry price - (PZ height × 1.5).
Stop Loss (SL): Calculated as a multiple (adjustable via "Stop Loss Factor," default 1.0) of the PZ height, placed below the range for buys or above for sells.
5. Visualization on the Chart
PowerZones are displayed with lines on the chart (you can hide them with "Show Bullish Channel" or "Show Bearish Channel").
An optional info panel ("Show Info Panel") displays key levels: PZ high and low, TP, and SL.
You can also enable brief documentation on the chart ("Show Documentation") explaining the basic rules.
6. Alerts
The code generates automatic alerts in TradingView:
For a bullish breakout: "Bullish PowerZone Breakout - LONG!"
For a bearish breakdown: "Bearish PowerZone Breakdown - SHORT!"
7. Customization
You can tweak:
The number of candles to detect a PZ ("Periods").
The minimum percentage move ("Min % Move").
Whether to use highs/lows or just open/close ("Use Full Range").
The TP and SL factors.
The color scheme and what elements to display on the chart.
Practical Example
Imagine you set "Periods = 5" and "Min % Move = 2%":
An initial bearish candle appears, followed by 5 consecutive bullish candles.
The total move exceeds 2%.
A Bullish PowerZone is drawn with a high and low.
If the price breaks above the high, you enter a long position with a TP 1.5 times the PZ height and an SL equal to the height below.
The system executes the trade and exits automatically at TP or SL.
Conclusion
This strategy is great for capturing strong price movements after consolidation or momentum zones. It’s automated, visual, and customizable, making it useful for both beginner and advanced traders. Try it out and adjust it to fit your trading style!
volume profile ranking indicator📌 Introduction
This script implements a volume profile ranking indicato for TradingView. It is designed to visualize the distribution of traded volume over price levels within a defined historical window. Unlike TradingView’s built-in Volume Profile, this script gives full customization of the profile drawing logic, binning, color gradient, and the ability to anchor the profile to a specific date.
⚙️ How It Works (Logic)
1. Inputs
➤POC Lookback Days (lookback): Defines how many bars (days) to look back from a selected point to calculate the volume distribution.
➤Bin Count (bin_count): Determines how many price bins (horizontal levels) the price range will be divided into.
➤Use Custom Lookback Date (useCustomDate): Enables/disables manually selecting a backtest start date.
➤Custom Lookback Date (customDate): When enabled, the profile will calculate volume based on this date instead of the most recent bar.
2. Target Bar Determination
➤If a custom date is selected, the script searches for the bar closest to that date within 1000 bars.
➤If not, it defaults to the latest bar (bar_index).
➤The profile is drawn only when the current bar is close to the target bar (within ±2 bars), to avoid unnecessary recalculations and performance issues.
3. Volume Binning
➤The price range over the lookback window is divided into bin_count segments.
➤For each bar within the lookback window, its volume is added to the appropriate bin based on price.
➤If the price falls outside the expected range, it is clamped to the first or last bin.
4. Ranking and Sorting
➤A bubble sort ranks each bin by total volume.
➤The most active bin (POC, or Point of Control) is highlighted with a thicker bar.
5. Rendering
➤Horizontal bars (line.new) represent volume intensity in each price bin.
➤Each bar is color-coded by volume heat: more volume = more intense color.
➤Labels (label.new) show:
➤Total volume
➤Rank
➤Percentage of total volume
➤Price range of the bin
🧑💻 How to Use
1. Add the Script to Your Chart
➤Copy the code into TradingView’s Pine Script editor and add it to your chart.
2. Set Lookback Period
➤Default is 252 bars (about one year for daily charts), but can be changed via the input.
3. (Optional) Use Custom Date
●Toggle "Use Custom Lookback Date" to true.
➤Pick a date in the "Custom Lookback Date" input to anchor the profile.
4. Analyze the Volume Distribution
➤The longest (thickest) red/orange bar represents the Point of Control (POC) — the price with the most volume traded.
➤Other bars show volume distribution across price.
➤Labels display useful metrics to evaluate areas of high/low interest.
✅ Features
🔶 Customizable anchor point (custom date).
🔶Adjustable bin count and lookback length.
🔶 Clear visualization with heatmap coloring.
🔶 Lightweight and performance-optimized (especially with the shouldDrawProfile filter)
Ultimate Trading BotHow the "Ultimate Trading Bot" Works:
This Pine Script trading bot executes buy and sell trades based on a combination of technical indicators:
Indicators Used:
RSI (Relative Strength Index)
Measures momentum and determines overbought (70) and oversold (30) levels.
A crossover above 30 suggests a potential buy, and a cross below 70 suggests a potential sell.
Moving Average (MA)
A simple moving average (SMA) of 50 periods to track the trend.
Prices above the MA indicate an uptrend, while prices below indicate a downtrend.
Stochastic Oscillator (%K and %D)
Identifies overbought and oversold conditions using a smoothed stochastic formula.
A crossover of %K above %D signals a buy, and a crossover below %D signals a sell.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
Uses a 12-period fast EMA and a 26-period slow EMA, with a 9-period signal line.
A crossover of MACD above the signal line suggests a bullish move, and a cross below suggests bearish movement.
Trade Execution:
Buy (Long Entry) Conditions:
RSI crosses above 30 (indicating recovery from an oversold state).
The closing price is above the 50-period moving average (showing an uptrend).
The MACD line crosses above the signal line (indicating upward momentum).
The Stochastic %K crosses above %D (indicating bullish momentum).
→ If all conditions are met, the bot enters a long (buy) position.

Pulse of Cycle Oscillator"Pulse of Cycle" Oscillator: Logic and Usage
What Is It and How Does It Work?
The "Pulse of Cycle" is an oscillator that measures the cycles of price rises and falls, helping you spot overbought and oversold conditions. Unlike classic indicators, it doesn’t focus on how much the price moves but tracks its direction (up or down) like a "pulse." Here’s the logic:
Price Movement:
If the price rises compared to the previous bar, it adds +1.
If the price falls, it subtracts -1.
If the price stays the same, it adds 0.
Decay Factor: Each step, the previous value is multiplied by a factor (e.g., 0.9) to shrink it slightly. This keeps the oscillator from growing too big and focuses it on recent price action.
Signals: The oscillator moves around zero. When it crosses certain levels (e.g., 5 and 10), it warns you about overbought or oversold zones:
Weak Signal: Above ±5, the market might be stretching a bit.
Strong Signal: Above ±10, a reversal is more likely.
In short, it tracks the "rhythm" of price streaks (consecutive ups or downs) and signals when things might be getting extreme.
How It Looks on the Chart
Line: The oscillator moves around a zero line.
Colors:
Blue: Normal zone (between -5 and +5).
Orange: Weak overbought (+5 and up) or oversold (-5 and down).
Red: Strong overbought (+10 and up).
Lime: Strong oversold (-10 and down).
Threshold Lines: You’ll see lines at 0, ±5, and ±10 on the chart to show where you are.
How to Use It?
Here’s how to trade with this oscillator:
Buy Opportunity (Long Position):
When?: The oscillator drops below -5 (weak) or -10 (strong), then starts moving back toward zero. This suggests the price has hit a bottom and might rise.
Example: It falls to -12 (lime), then rises to -8. You could buy, expecting a bounce.
Tip: Wait for a green candle to confirm if you want to be safer.
Sell Opportunity (Short Position):
When?: The oscillator rises above +5 (weak) or +10 (strong), then starts dropping back toward zero. This indicates the price might have peaked and could fall.
Example: It hits +11 (red), then drops to +7. You could sell, expecting a decline.
Tip: Look for a red candle to confirm the turn.
Neutral Zone: If it’s between -5 and +5, the market is balanced. You can wait for a clearer signal.
Practical Steps to Use
Add to TradingView:
Paste the code into Pine Editor and click “Add to Chart.”
Adjust Settings (Optional):
Decay (0.9): Lower to 0.7 for faster response, raise to 0.95 for smoother movement.
Thresholds (5 and 10): Change them (e.g., 4 and 8) based on your market.
Watch Signals:
Follow the color changes and threshold crossings.
Set Alerts:
Right-click the oscillator > “Add Alert” to get notified on overbought/oversold signals.
Things to Watch Out For
Confirmation: Pair it with support/resistance levels or candlestick patterns for stronger signals.
Market Type: Works best in range-bound (sideways) markets. In strong trends (all up or down), signals might mislead.
Risk: Always use a stop loss—below the last low for buys, above the last high for sells.
Summary
The "Pulse of Cycle" is a simple yet powerful tool that tracks price movement streaks. Use it to catch reversals at strong signals (-10/+10) or get early warnings at weak signals (±5). The colors and lines on the chart make it easy to see when to act.
