Volume Zones Multi-Timeframe OverlayAt its core, this indicator is a variation of my other indicator, Welkin Advanced Volume Overlay (for VSA )
This version is based on the power of multi-timeframe analysis. The basic functionality is simple: Plot lines from the high and low of candles formed during periods of high volume and fill the space between them. The volume levels for deciding what counts as "high volume" are based on standard deviations of the volume's SMA , and the higher the volume , the brighter the zone. i.e., a volume zone set by a volume level that is 4 standard deviations higher than average will be more "filled in" and less transparent than a volume zone from a 2 standard deviation candle.
These zones tend to act as areas of congestion, and the "ceilings" and "floors" of the zones as support and resistance . Overlapping zones tend to indicate strength and are likely to require more effort to get through. The more timeframes that agree with each other, the stronger the zone, ceiling, or floor.
By default, these zones are drawn based on the chart's timeframe and 1 timeframe higher, automatically set based on some "standard" values:
1m -> 5m
5m -> 15m
10m -> 30m
15m -> 60m
30m -> 60m
60m -> 1d
1d -> 1w
Finally, both the base timeframe and the higher timeframe are customizable; this is intended to make it easy to "double" up copies of the indicator to fit even more timeframes on the chart, creating a sort of heatmap for volume price analysis.
An example of three copies of the indicator, showing volume zones from 6 different timeframes.

Reversal Bands & Zones (Expo) "It has never been easier to find high probability trades"
Reversal Bands & Zones (Expo) is an algorithm that analyzes the market in real-time and identifies reversal points, key market zones, and trends. The advanced and unique reversal bands act as support & resistance zones, and together with the trend tracking feature, it serves as a trend confirmation. The real-time market zones are displayed where there is a high probability of finding support/resistance. The algorithm does also map out key pivot levels based on the current market structure.
> Reversal points and key market zones have alerts.
Real-time
No repainting
Works on any market and in any timeframe
The indicator can be used standalone or as a part of your current trading strategy.
☖ Reversals
The algorithm identifies areas of potential turning points, these are displayed as Upper and Lower Reversal Cloud. When the price hits the cloud and bounces off there is a high probability that the price will reverse. If the price stays in the reversal cloud, there is a high probability that a trend is forming.
☖ Trends
Positive Trend: If the price is in or close to the upper green reversal band and above the trend- tracking line, we can be sure that the market is in a positive trend until the price crosses down from the reversal cloud and the trend tracking line.
NegativeTrend: If the price is in or close to the lower red reversal band and below the trend- tracking line, we can be sure that the market is in a negative trend until the price crosses up from the reversal cloud and the trend tracking line.
☖ Zones
"It hasn't been easier to display, in real-time, one of the most important and useful technical analysis, namely key support and resistance zones"
The algorithm analyzes the market structure in real-time and maps out key supply/resistance and demand/support zones. The user gets an instant understanding of the market structure. Support and resistance can be used to determine the range of a market, to trade reversals, bounces, or breakouts.
☖ Pivots
The indicator does also displays key pivot levels. Pivots can be used to determine the range of a market, to trade reversals, bounces, or breakouts.
HOW TO USE
- Use the indicator to identify reversals.
- Use the indicator to identify the range of the market.
- Use the indicator to identify key support/resistance zones.
- Use the indicator to identify trends.

Mtf Rsi Supply/Demand ZonesThis scripts draws supply and demand zones based on the RSI indicator. For example if RSI is under 30 a supply zone is drawn on the chart and extended for as long as there isn't a new crossunder 30. Same goes for above 70. The threshold which by default is set to 30, which means 30 is added to 0 and subtracted from 100 to give us the classic 30/70 threshold on RSI , can be set in the indicator settings.
By only plotting the Demand Below Supply Above indicator you get automatic SD level that is updated every time RSI reaches either 30 or 70. If you plot the Resistance Zone / Support Zone you get an indicator that extends the zone instead of overwrite the earlier zone. Due to the zone being extended the chart can get a bit messy if there isn't a clear range going on.
There is also a "confirmation bars" setting where you can tell the script how many bars under over 30 / 70 you want before a zone is drawn.As you can see, this could be useful "Price Flow" indicator, where we would only short if a zone appears below another zone, or long if two zones in a row are going up, like stairs.
MACD With Dynamic ZonesThis is a standard MACD, but with a big game changer, we calculate upper and lower zones.
Any cross above the top of the upper zone, or bellow the bottom of the lower zone, is considered a strong signal.
Any cross inside the zone bands is considered a weak signal.
Any signal inside the two zones is considered invalid.
Best to use with it's corresponding signal marker on the chart.
For best result, use this on multi time frame.
Support/Resistance Zones x3Support and Resistance Levels + Zones for 3 time frames, based on volume at fractal levels with Zones based on wick size which is a true reflection of a Zone when compared to other S/R Zone scripts which only use a thick line not based on anything.
Original script is thanks to synapticex I have just migrated to version 3, heavily modified it and added Support and Resistance Zones.
Smart Margin Zone
SMART MARGIN ZONE - CME-BASED SUPPORT & RESISTANCE INDICATOR
TITLE FOR PUBLICATION:
Smart Margin Zone - CME Margin-Based Support and Resistance
CATEGORY:
Support and Resistance
SHORT DESCRIPTION (for preview):
Automatically plots margin zones based on CME Group requirements. These zones represent critical price levels where leveraged traders face margin calls, creating natural support and resistance through forced liquidations.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
FULL DESCRIPTION FOR TRADINGVIEW:
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📊 Smart Margin Zone - Professional Trading Zones Based on CME Data
This indicator automatically calculates and displays margin zones derived from official CME Group margin requirements. These zones represent critical price levels where traders using leverage receive margin calls, triggering forced position closures that create natural support and resistance levels.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🎯 CORE CONCEPT
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
When price reaches calculated margin zones, traders using 2:1 or 4:1 leverage on CME futures receive margin calls. Brokers automatically liquidate these positions, creating waves of buying or selling pressure that form strong support and resistance levels.
This is not theoretical - it's based on actual margin requirements from CME Group, the world's largest derivatives marketplace.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📐 CALCULATION METHODOLOGY
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
The indicator uses the following formula to calculate zone sizes:
Zone Size = (Margin Requirement / Tick Value) × Tick Size × 1.10
Where:
• Margin Requirement = Official CME initial margin (updated November 2024)
• Tick Value = Dollar value of minimum price movement
• Tick Size = Minimum price increment
• 1.10 = 10% buffer for realistic zone width
SUPPORTED INSTRUMENTS WITH CME DATA:
Currency Pairs:
• EURUSD: $2,100 margin → 0.0168 zone size
• GBPUSD: $1,800 margin → 0.0144 zone size
• AUDUSD: $1,300 margin → 0.0065 zone size
• NZDUSD: $1,100 margin → 0.0055 zone size
• USDJPY: $3,200 margin → custom calculation
• USDCAD: $950 margin → calculated
• USDCHF: $1,650 margin → calculated
Commodities:
• Gold (XAUUSD): $8,000 margin → 80 points zone size
• Silver (XAGUSD): $6,500 margin → calculated
• WTI Crude Oil: $4,500 margin → calculated
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🔍 HOW IT WORKS
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
1. SWING POINT DETECTION
The indicator automatically identifies swing highs and swing lows using a configurable lookback period (default 10 bars). These become anchor points for zone calculations.
2. FIVE ZONE LEVELS
From each swing point, five zone levels are calculated:
• Zone 1/4 (25%) - First correction level
• Zone 1/2 (50%) - KEY ZONE for trend determination
• Zone 3/4 (75%) - Intermediate level
• Zone 1/1 (100%) - Full margin zone (strongest level)
• Zone 5/4 (125%) - Extended zone
3. TREND IDENTIFICATION
• Close above Zone 1/2 resistance = Bullish trend
• Close below Zone 1/2 support = Bearish trend
• Between zones = Range/consolidation
4. HISTORICAL CONTEXT
Current zones are displayed prominently with fills and labels. Historical zones appear as thin, semi-transparent lines for context without cluttering the chart.

Supply & Demand ZonesThis indicator detects high-probability supply and demand zones using a multi-step smart money concept approach:
Liquidity Sweep Detection: Identifies when price sweeps above a pivot high (supply setup) or below a pivot low (demand setup), capturing liquidity grabs by institutional traders.
Displacement Confirmation: Requires a strong displacement candle (measured by ATR and body percentage) or fair value gap (FVG/imbalance) in the opposite direction after the sweep.
Volume Confirmation: Optional filter ensures zones form only when volume exceeds the user-defined threshold, indicating institutional participation.
Smart Filtering: Built-in logic prevents overlapping zones, enforces minimum spacing between signals, and requires confirmation bars to eliminate false signals.
Zone Lifecycle Management: Zones are automatically removed when price closes through them with momentum. Breached zones can optionally "flip" to the opposite type when re-tested with strong displacement.
✨ Key Features
Clean Visual Display: Small "D" (Demand) and "S" (Supply) labels with shaded zone boxes
Non-Repainting: All signals use confirmed historical data—no lookahead or repainting
Volume Filter: Optional confirmation using volume spike detection
Zone Flip Logic: Breached demand zones can become supply (and vice versa) when violated
Overlap Prevention: Smart algorithm prevents clustered or duplicate zones
Confirmation Delay: Configurable wait period after sweep to confirm genuine setups
Customizable Inputs: Adjust pivot sensitivity, displacement thresholds, volume filters, and more
Alert Ready: Built-in alert conditions for new supply and demand zone formations

Trading Action: Look for LONG entries when price returns to the zone or on immediate continuation
Stop Loss: Place just below the zone or sweep low
Target: Next resistance level, supply zone, or risk-reward ratio target
Supply Zones (Red "S" Labels):
Price swept above a swing high (liquidity grab)
Strong bearish displacement or imbalance followed
Trading Action: Look for SHORT entries when price returns to the zone or on immediate continuation
Stop Loss: Place just above the zone or sweep high
Target: Next support level, demand zone, or risk-reward ratio target
Flipped Zones (Orange Labels):
Previous demand/supply zone was broken with strong momentum
Zone has flipped polarity and may now act as the opposite type
Trading Action: Exercise caution—wait for additional confirmation before trading flipped zones
🔍 What to Look For
High-Quality Setups:
Zone forms with above-average volume (check volume filter is enabled)
Clear liquidity sweep visible on the chart
Strong displacement candle with large body percentage
Zone aligns with overall market trend or key structure levels
Multiple timeframe confirmation (check higher timeframe for context)

4. Trade pullbacks to green zones (demand) for longs
5. Trade rallies to red zones (supply) for shorts
For Day Trading
1. Set timeframe to 1H or 4H
2. Use 6:1 ratio for more zones
3. Watch for zone color changes as confirmation
4. Enter when price retests zones in the direction of the higher timeframe trend
For Scalping
1. Set timeframe to 15m or 1H
2. Use 5:1 ratio for frequent signals
3. Focus on first touch of fresh zones
4. Use lower timeframes for precise entries
📋 Best Practices
✅ DO:
- Use zones from higher timeframes for better reliability
- Wait for zone color change as confirmation of flip
- Focus on first 2-3 touches of a zone
- Combine with trend analysis
- Use zones as targets and entry levels
❌ DON'T:
- Trade every zone - quality over quantity
- Ignore the touch counter
- Use on very low timeframes without HTF context
- Trade zones that have been tested many times
🎓 Understanding Dynamic Colors
Green Zones (Demand) = Below current price = Support = Look for bounces
Red Zones (Supply) = Above current price = Resistance = Look for rejections
When price breaks a green zone downward, it flips to red (former support becomes resistance)
When price breaks a red zone upward, it flips to green (former resistance becomes support)
📊 Info Dashboard

Version: 1.0 | Language: Pine Script v5
The Vishnu Zone Ver 2 by Dr. Sudhir Khollam## 📜 **The Vishnu Zone — Trade When the Brahma Zone Ends**
**Author:** Dr. Sudhir Khollam (SALSA© Method of Astrology & Market Psychology)
**Category:** Volatility Phase Detection / Bollinger Band Expansion Analysis
---
### 🔶 **Concept Overview**
In the **SALSA© Market Philosophy**, every market phase follows a cosmic rhythm —
* **Brahma Phase** represents *creation and expansion* (high volatility and strong directional movement).
* **Vishnu Phase** represents *maintenance and stability* (where expansion cools down and balanced opportunities appear).
**“The Vishnu Zone”** indicator identifies the exact moments when the **Brahma Phase ends** — signaling that the expansion has completed and the market is likely to enter a more stable, tradable state.
This is a **precision-timing indicator** that helps traders avoid entering at the end of impulsive phases and instead prepare for equilibrium-based trades (mean reversion, range setups, or steady trends).
---
### ⚙️ **How It Works**
The indicator measures **Bollinger Band Width (BBW)** to quantify expansion and contraction in volatility.
1. It calculates the **adaptive expansion threshold** using the average BBW over a rolling lookback period.
2. When the current BBW **drops below** this adaptive threshold **after being above it**, the script marks it as the **end of the Brahma Phase**.
3. This moment is shown visually as:
* 🕉 **“Vishnu” label** above the candle
* A **horizontal dotted line** extending for several bars
Together, these mark a **Vishnu Zone**, where the market transitions from expansion to consolidation — an ideal time for stabilization or entry planning.
---
### 📊 **Inputs & Settings**
| Parameter | Description |
| ---------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Bollinger Band Length** | The number of bars used for SMA and standard deviation (default 20). |
| **Bollinger Multiplier** | Determines the width of Bollinger Bands (default 2.0). |
| **Adaptive Lookback Period** | Rolling window to calculate the mean BBW for dynamic adjustment (default 150). |
| **Expansion Multiplier** | Multiplies the mean BBW to define the expansion threshold (default 1.35). |
| **Horizontal Line Extension Bars** | Number of bars to extend the Vishnu Zone line into the future (default 40). |
| **Show End-of-Brahma Labels?** | Toggle 🕉 labels on/off. |
| **Show Horizontal Lines?** | Toggle Vishnu Zone lines on/off. |
---
### 🔔 **Alerts**
When the **Brahma Phase ends**, the indicator triggers an alert:
> *“Brahma Phase Ends, Vishnu has taken over.”*
This helps traders receive real-time notification of volatility contraction and possible entry zones.
---
### 🧠 **Best Practices**
* Works effectively on **5-minute to 1-hour timeframes** for intraday trading.
* Best paired with **momentum or volume filters** to confirm trend exhaustion.
* Avoid entering during rapid expansion (Brahma phase). Wait for a Vishnu signal to ensure market stabilization.
---
### 🌌 **Philosophical Interpretation (SALSA© Principle)**
Just as Vishnu sustains the universe after Brahma’s creation, the market too enters a **maintenance phase** after every burst of expansion.
Recognizing this shift allows traders to align with **cosmic rhythm and price psychology**, not just technical metrics.
---
### 🧩 **Summary**
✅ Detects when expansion volatility ends
✅ Marks transition zones between impulsive and stable phases
✅ Sends real-time alerts
✅ Adaptive and self-adjusting across markets and assets
✅ Simple, clean visualization — ideal for disciplined trading
---
### ⚡ **Use Case**
Perfect for traders who:
* Prefer **low-risk entries** after volatility spikes
* Trade **mean reversion**, **range breakouts**, or **volatility collapses**
* Believe in the **cyclic nature of market energy**

This indicator builds normalized buy and sell zones for altcoins using ultra-long baselines on a fixed timeframe and calibrated percentage offsets. It helps you stage entries and exits with discipline and consistency across a wide range of altcoins, from majors to lesser-known assets, by normalizing calculations regardless of the chart’s timeframe.What makes it unique
Two volatility regimes for exits: Average Volatility and High Volatility. Switch between them depending on market phase: steady trends vs. euphoric/parabolic moves.
Timeframe normalization: all calculations run on a fixed 60-minute aggregate via request.security, so results are comparable across different charts and assets.
Ultra-long baselines: the core lines reflect higher-cycle structure of altcoin markets and avoid being driven by short-lived noise.
Asymmetric design: buy zones use fixed percentage discounts for disciplined DCA entries, while sell zones use expanded targets designed for altcoin-style rallies.
Non-repainting implementation: request.security is used with lookahead_off; labels are updated on the last bar only.
Consolidation: merges two legacy variants into one tool, simplifying updates and avoiding separate “minor variation” publications.
How it works (principles)
Baseline: an ultra-long moving average on fixed M60 is the reference for relative levels.
Buy Zones (Buy 1/2): set at fixed percentage discounts from the baseline to build staggered entries.
Sell Zones (Sell 1/2/3):
Average Volatility: targets for routine trend conditions and moderate volatility.
High Volatility: extended targets to capture outsized moves during euphoric phases.
Last-bar price labels: show current level values to speed up order placement.
How to use
Entries:
Buy 1: conservative accumulation at a discount to the “fair-value” baseline.
Buy 2: more aggressive adds during capitulative dips. Consider confirming with volume/structure filters.
Exits:
Use Average Volatility in steady or range-bound conditions for partial take-profits at Sell 1/2/3.
Use High Volatility during strong impulses to avoid exiting too early.
Laddering:
Split position size into 3–6 tranches and distribute across zones.
Refresh orders periodically; levels shift as the baseline updates.
Timeframes and assets:
Works on any chart timeframe; calculations are normalized on M60.
Prefer liquid pairs for cleaner adherence to levels.
Combinations:
Improve selectivity with HTF trend filters or volume confirmation. The indicator provides context; entry/exit triggers remain your system’s choice.

E.Invest ALT Buy/Sell Zones — нормализованные зоны покупок/продаж для альткоинов (Average/High Volatility)
Кратко
Индикатор строит нормализованные зоны покупок и продаж для альткоинов на основе ультрадолгой базовой линии (baseline) на фиксированном таймфрейме и калиброванных процентных отклонений. Он помогает дисциплинированно расставлять лестницу заявок на вход/выход и одинаково применим к широкому спектру альткоинов — благодаря нормализации расчётов независимо от ТФ графика.Чем он уникален
Два режимa зон продаж: Average Volatility и High Volatility. Переключайтесь в зависимости от рыночной фазы: умеренные тренды или параболические импульсы.
Нормализация по времени: все расчёты ведутся на фиксированном M60 через request.security — уровни сопоставимы между инструментами и ТФ.
Ультрадолгие базовые линии: отражают структуру циклов альткоинов, а не кратковременный шум.
Асимметрия логики: покупки — фиксированные проценты скидки (удобно для DCA‑подхода), продажи — расширенные цели под «выносные» ралли.
Без перерисовки: request.security с lookahead_off; метки обновляются только на последнем баре.
Консолидация: объединяет две прежние вариации в один инструмент, исключая публикацию «мелких вариаций» и упрощая поддержку.
Как это работает (принципы)
Базовая линия (baseline): ультрадолгая скользящая на фиксированном M60 — опорный уровень для относительных расчётов.
Зоны покупок (Buy 1/2): фиксированные проценты скидки от baseline — для поэтапного набора.
Зоны продаж (Sell 1/2/3):
Average Volatility — цели для «обычных» трендов и умеренной волатильности.
High Volatility — дальние цели в фазах эйфории/импульсов.
Метки цен на последнем баре — для быстрого выставления лимит‑ордеров.
Как использовать
Входы:
Buy 1 — базовая зона для начала набора/докупки со скидкой к «справедливой» линии.
Buy 2 — агрессивное усреднение в кульминациях снижения; лучше подтверждать объёмом/структурой.
Выходы:
Average Volatility — частичная фиксация на Sell 1/2/3 в спокойных фазах/боковике.
High Volatility — используйте в импульсных фазах, чтобы не выйти слишком рано.
Лестница ордеров:
Делите объём на 3–6 частей и распределяйте по зонам.
Обновляйте заявки: уровни динамически следуют за baseline.
Таймфреймы и инструменты:
Работает на любом ТФ графика; расчёт нормализован на M60.
Предпочтительны ликвидные пары для корректной отработки уровней.
Комбинации:
Повышайте точность HTF‑фильтрами тренда и подтверждением объёмом. Индикатор задаёт контекст; триггеры — на ваше усмотрение.

Adaptive Trend Cloud + Smart Reversal Zones [@darshakssc]This indicator combines a volatility-adjusted trend cloud with RSI- and volume-based reversal signals to help traders visually spot potential trend continuation or reversal zones.
It’s designed to look clean, colorful, and informative — great for both beginners and experienced traders looking for chart clarity and actionable insights.
🔍 How It Works
🔵 1. Trend Cloud
1. The cloud is created using a 34-period EMA as the base and adjusted with a 14-period ATR multiplier.
2. When price is above the EMA, the cloud turns green (bullish).
3. When price is below the EMA, it turns red (bearish).
4. A neutral gray tone shows when price is inside the cloud, signaling potential indecision.
🔁 2. Smart Reversal Signal Logic
1. Signals appear only when price enters the cloud zone, indicating a potential change in direction.
2. To confirm the reversal, the following conditions must also be met:
3. RSI is below 40 (for bullish reversals) or above 60 (for bearish reversals)
4. A volume spike occurs (1.8× the 20-bar volume average)
5. A cooldown of 10 bars between signals prevents overplotting
🎯 3. TP & SL Labels
1. When a valid buy or sell signal appears:
🎯 TP (Take Profit) is placed at 2× ATR distance
🛑 SL (Stop Loss) is placed at 1× ATR distance
These levels are shown via chart labels for visual reference
🛎️ 4. Alerts
1. Built-in alerts trigger on:
🟢 Buy reversal signals
🔴 Sell reversal signals
✅ How to Use
1. Apply the indicator to any chart (works best on 5min–4h timeframes)
2. Look for the 🟢 Buy / 🔴 Sell labels when price touches the cloud
3. Use the visual TP/SL markers as reference zones — not financial advice
4. Combine with your own risk management, price action or confluence tools
⚙️ Customization Options
1. EMA & ATR lengths and multipliers
2. RSI and volume thresholds
3. Signal cooldown to reduce noise
4. Toggle TP/SL zones on or off

ATR RopeATR Rope is inspired by DonovanWall's "Range Filter". It implements a similar concept of filtering out smaller market movements and adjusting only for larger moves. In addition, this indicator goes one step deeper by producing actionable zones to determine market state. (Trend vs. Consolidation)
> Background
When reading up on the Range Filter indicator, it reminded me exactly of a Rope stabilization drawing tool in a program I use frequently. Rope stabilization essentially attaches a fixed length "rope" to your cursor and an anchor point (Brush). As you move your cursor, you are pulling the brush behind it. The cursor (of course) will not pull the brush until the rope is fully extended, this behavior filters out jittery movements and is used to produce smoother drawing curves.
If compared visually side-by-side, you will notice that this indicator bears striking resemblance to its inspiration.
> Goal
Other than simply distinguishing price movements between meaningful and noise, this indicator strives to create a rigid structure to frame market movements and lack-there-of, such as when to anticipate trend, and when to suspect consolidation.
Since the indicator works based on an ATR range, the resulting ATR Channel does well to get reactions from price at its extremes. Naturally, when consolidating, price will remain within the channel, neither pushing the channel significantly up or down. Likewise, when trending, price will continue to push the channel in a single direction.
With the goal of keeping it quick and simple, this indicator does not do any smoothing of data feeds, and is simply based on the deviation of price from the central rope. Adjusting the rope when price extends past the threshold created by +/- ATR from the rope.
> Features & Behaviors
- ATR Rope
ATR Rope is displayed as a 3 color single line.
This can be considered the center line, or the directional line, whichever you'd prefer.
The main point of the Rope display is to indicate direction, however it also is factually the center of the current working range.
- ATR Rope Color
When the rope's value moves up, it changes to green (uptrend), when down, red (downtrend).
When the source crosses the rope, it turns blue (flat).
With these simple rules, we've formed a structure to view market movements.
- Consolidation Zones
Consolidation Zones generate from "Flat" areas, and extend into subsequent trend areas. Consolidation is simply areas where price has crossed the Rope and remains inside the range. Over these periods, the upper and lower values are accumulated and averaged together to form the "Consolidation Zone" values. These zones are draw live, so values are averaged as the flat areas progress and don't repaint, so all values seen historically are as they would appear live.
- ATR Channel
ATR Channel displays the upper and lower bounds of the working range.
When the source moves beyond this range, the rope is adjusted based on the distance from the source to the channel. This range can be extremely useful to view, but by default it is hidden.
> Application
This indicator is not created to provide signals, or serve as a "complete" system.
(People who didn't read this far will still comment for signals. :) )
This is created to be used alongside manual interpretation and intuition. This indicator is not meant to constrain any users into a box, and I would actually encourage an open mind and idea generation, as the application of this indicator can take various forms.
> Examples
As you would probably already know, price movement can be fast impulses, and movement can be slow bleeds. In the screenshot below, we are using movements from and to consolidation zones to classify weak trend and strong trend. As you can see, there are also areas of consolidation which get broken out of and confirmed for the larger moves.
Author's Note: In each of these examples, I have outlined the start and end of each session. These examples come from 1 Min Future charts, and have specifically been framed with day trading in mind.
"Breakout Retest" or "Support/Resistance Flips" or "Structure Retests" are all generally the same thing, with different traders referring to them by different names, all of which can be seen throughout these examples.
In the next example, we have a day which started with an early reversal leading into long, slow, trend. Notice how each area throughout the trend essentially moves slightly higher, then consolidates while holding support of the previous zone. This day had a few sharp movements, however there was a large amount of neutrality throughout this day with continuous higher lows.
In contrast to the previous example, next up, we have a very choppy day. Throughout which we see a significant amount of retests before fast directional movements. We also see a few examples of places where previous zones remained relevant into the future. While the zones only display into the resulting trend area, they do not become immediately meaningless once they stop drawing.
> Abstract
In the screenshot below, I have stacked 2 of these indicators, using the high as the source for one and the low as the source for the other. I've hidden lines of the high and low channels to create a 4 lined channel based on the wicks of price.
This is not necessary to use the indicator, but should help provide an idea of creative ways the simple indicator could be used to produce more complicated analysis.
If you've made it this far, I would hope it's clear to you how this indicator could provide value to your trading.
Thank you to DonovonWall for the inspiration.
Enjoy!
ADX with Shaded ZoneThe ADX with Shaded Zone indicator is a momentum-based tool that visualizes trend strength using the Average Directional Index (ADX) along with the +DI and -DI lines. This indicator enhances the traditional ADX setup by adding a shaded zone between ADX levels 20 and 25, helping traders easily identify the transition area between non-trending and trending market conditions.
It plots:
+DI (Green): Positive Directional Indicator
−DI (Red): Negative Directional Indicator
ADX (Blue): Measures the strength of the trend
Shaded Zone: Highlights the indecisive range where ADX is below 25 (gray background between levels 20 and 25)
⚙️ How to Use:
✅ Trend Identification:
ADX < 20: Weak or no trend. Avoid trend-following strategies.
ADX 20–25 (Shaded Zone): Transition zone. Potential trend forming — stay cautious.
ADX > 25: Stronger trend. Favor trend-following strategies.
✅ Direction Confirmation:
If +DI > -DI and ADX > 25 → Uptrend confirmation.
If -DI > +DI and ADX > 25 → Downtrend confirmation.
Crossovers between +DI and -DI can be used as early signals.
✅ Shaded Zone Use:
The gray shaded area helps visually filter out low-trend strength conditions.
Useful for trend traders to wait before entering until ADX breaks above 25.
+ Stochastic S/R ZonesHey, all. I have a new indicator here that displays zones on your price chart where the stochastic oscillator has moved out of overbought or oversold back into the range of the indicator that is bounded by those two levels.
I know there are many support and resistance indicators on TradingView already, at least a couple of which use the RSI in a similar way as I am using the stochastic here, but I still believe this is a fairly novel interpretation of the stochastic, and it is, in my opinion, a better oscillator than the RSI to be used in this way.
In addition to the zones being plotted on the chart, the indicator also, optionally, can color candles or plot shapes above candles when the 50 line is crossed, so if you want to use this as a simple momentum indicator without desire of having the below chart indicator taking up screen space, you're pretty much covered on the typical signals you might want from it (with the exception of %K / %D crosses, but there are alerts for that).
Visually, it is a simple, clean indicator. There are the zones, and then candle colors or shapes if you opt to add those. These zones are actually drawn from the candle preceding the cross over or cross under. Reason for that is often times the candle of the cross is fairly impulsive and exiting a consolidation. That period of consolidation is what is important to highlight, at least as far as I am concerned. The zones themselves extend until they are broken by a candle. A support zone stops at the candle that closes below its low. Vice versa for a resistance zone.
Usage is fairly simple. All the standard stochastic inputs are available for you to adjust to your heart's content. Additionally, you can choose either the %K or %D line to use as the source from which the zones are drawn, candles are colored, and shapes are plotted. Not sure if this will matter to most people, but I figured it should be made available.
This should be obvious, but I feel it must be said, just because an oscillator (any oscillator) has exited overbought or oversold does not mean that there must be a reversal (or in the case of a trend pullback, continuation). The oscillator can always simply immediately move back into overbought/sold. Just because a support box prints does not mean you should mortgage your house on a long trade. In strong trends, and depending on your oscillator settings, the indicator might draw a box then only a couple of candles later break it, continuing on with the trend. This of course is telling you something, and you would be wise to listen. As with all things trading, context is important.
Here are a few extra screens for you.
I really hope you all like this. It's been ages since I've created anything new, and despite its simplicity and the few lines of code that make it up, it took a lot of work, as I am a poor coder.
Enjoy,
Scott
300-Candle Weighted Average Zones w/50 EMA SignalsThis indicator is designed to deliver a more nuanced view of price dynamics by combining a custom, weighted price average with a volatility-based zone and a trend filter (in this case, a 50-period exponential moving average). The core concept revolves around capturing the overall price level over a relatively large lookback window (300 candles) but with an intentional bias toward recent market activity (the most recent 20 candles), thereby offering a balance between long-term context and short-term responsiveness. By smoothing this weighted average and establishing a “zone” of standard deviation bands around it, the indicator provides a refined visualization of both average price and its recent volatility envelope. Traders can then look for confluence with a standard trend filter, such as the 50 EMA, to identify meaningful crossover signals that may represent trend shifts or opportunities for entry and exit.
What the Indicator Does:
Weighted Price Average:
Instead of using a simple or exponential moving average, this indicator calculates a custom weighted average price over the past 300 candles. Most historical candles receive a base weight of 1.0, but the most recent 20 candles are assigned a higher weight (for example, a weight of 2.0). This weighting scheme ensures that the calculation is not simply a static lookback average; it actively emphasizes current market conditions. The effect is to generate an average line that is more sensitive to the most recent price swings while still maintaining the historical context of the previous 280 candles.
Smoothing of the Weighted Average:
Once the raw weighted average is computed, an exponential smoothing function (EMA) is applied to reduce noise and produce a cleaner, more stable average line. This smoothing helps traders avoid reacting prematurely to minor price fluctuations. By stabilizing the average line, traders can more confidently identify actual shifts in market direction.
Volatility Zone via Standard Deviation Bands:
To contextualize how far price can deviate from this weighted average, the indicator uses standard deviation. Standard deviation is a statistical measure of volatility—how spread out the price values are around the mean. By adding and subtracting one standard deviation from the smoothed weighted average, the indicator plots an upper band and a lower band, creating a zone or channel. The area between these bands is filled, often with a semi-transparent color, highlighting a volatility corridor within which price and the EMA might oscillate.
This zone is invaluable in visualizing “normal” price behavior. When the 50 EMA line and the weighted average line are both within this volatility zone, it indicates that the market’s short- to mid-term trend and its average pricing are aligned well within typical volatility bounds.
Incorporation of a 50-Period EMA:
The inclusion of a commonly used trend filter, the 50 EMA, adds another layer of context to the analysis. The 50 EMA, being a widely recognized moving average length, is often considered a baseline for intermediate trend bias. It reacts faster than a long-term average (like a 200 EMA) but is still stable enough to filter out the market “chop” seen in very short-term averages.
By overlaying the 50 EMA on this custom weighted average and the surrounding volatility zone, the trader gains a dual-dimensional perspective:
Trend Direction: If the 50 EMA is generally above the weighted average, the short-term trend is gaining bullish momentum; if it’s below, the short-term trend has a bearish tilt.
Volatility Normalization: The bands, constructed from standard deviations, provide a sense of whether the price and the 50 EMA are operating within a statistically “normal” range. If the EMA crosses the weighted average within this zone, it signals a potential trend initiation or meaningful shift, as opposed to a random price spike outside normal volatility boundaries.
Why a Trader Would Want to Use This Indicator:
Contextualized Price Level:
Standard MAs may not fully incorporate the most recent price dynamics in a large lookback window. By weighting the most recent candles more heavily, this indicator ensures that the trader is always anchored to what the market is currently doing, not just what it did 100 or 200 candles ago.
Reduced Whipsaw with Smoothing:
The smoothed weighted average line reduces noise, helping traders filter out inconsequential price movements. This makes it easier to spot genuine changes in trend or sentiment.
Visual Volatility Gauge:
The standard deviation bands create a visual representation of “normal” price movement. Traders can quickly assess if a breakout or breakdown is statistically significant or just another oscillation within the expected volatility range.
Clear Trade Signals with Confirmation:
By integrating the 50 EMA and designing signals that trigger only when the 50 EMA crosses above or below the weighted average while inside the zone, the indicator provides a refined entry/exit criterion. This avoids chasing breakouts that occur in abnormal volatility conditions and focuses on those crossovers likely to have staying power.
How to Use It in an Example Strategy:
Imagine you are a swing trader looking to identify medium-term trend changes. You apply this indicator to a chart of a popular currency pair or a leading tech stock. Over the past few days, the 50 EMA has been meandering around the weighted average line, both confined within the standard deviation zone.
Bullish Example:
Suddenly, the 50 EMA crosses decisively above the weighted average line while both are still hovering within the volatility zone. This might be your cue: you interpret this crossover as the 50 EMA acknowledging the recent upward shift in price dynamics that the weighted average has highlighted. Since it occurred inside the normal volatility range, it’s less likely to be a head-fake. You place a long position, setting an initial stop just below the lower band to protect against volatility.
If the price continues to rise and the EMA stays above the average, you have confirmation to hold the trade. As the price moves higher, the weighted average may follow, reinforcing your bullish stance.
Bearish Example:
On the flip side, if the 50 EMA crosses below the weighted average line within the zone, it suggests a subtle but meaningful change in trend direction to the downside. You might short the asset, placing your protective stop just above the upper band, expecting that the statistically “normal” level of volatility will contain the price action. If the price does break above those bands later, it’s a sign your trade may not work out as planned.
Other Indicators for Confluence:
To strengthen the reliability of the signals generated by this weighted average zone approach, traders may want to combine it with other technical studies:
Volume Indicators (e.g., Volume Profile, OBV):
Confirm that the trend crossover inside the volatility zone is supported by volume. For instance, an uptrend crossover combined with increasing On-Balance Volume (OBV) or volume spikes on up candles signals stronger buying pressure behind the price action.
Momentum Oscillators (e.g., RSI, Stochastics):
Before taking a crossover signal, check if the RSI is above 50 and rising for bullish entries, or if the Stochastics have turned down from overbought levels for bearish entries. Momentum confirmation can help ensure that the trend change is not just an isolated random event.
Market Structure Tools (e.g., Pivot Points, Swing High/Low Analysis):
Identify if the crossover event coincides with a break of a previous pivot high or low. A bullish crossover inside the zone aligned with a break above a recent swing high adds further strength to your conviction. Conversely, a bearish crossover confirmed by a breakdown below a previous swing low can make a short trade setup more compelling.
Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP):
Comparing where the weighted average zone lies relative to VWAP can provide institutional insight. If the bullish crossover happens while the price is also holding above VWAP, it can mean that the average participant in the market is in profit and that the trend is likely supported by strong hands.
This indicator serves as a tool to balance long-term perspective, short-term adaptability, and volatility normalization. It can be a valuable addition to a trader’s toolkit, offering enhanced clarity and precision in detecting meaningful shifts in trend, especially when combined with other technical indicators and robust risk management principles.
Open Range Breakout With Take Profit Zones
Open Range Breakout With Take Profit Zones prints the open range and profitable zones based on the high and low during the opening hours.
This indicator can be used to prepare breakout trades following the OPR strategy. The time window for the open range as well as for the market hours can be configured. Also custom alerting templates allow to create alerts when a breakout out of the opening range occurs or when 50% take profit level is reached.
The background of pre and post market hours is coloured according to the configured time windows.
This indicator was written to support scalping and day trading. It does not calculate or display results on hourly, daily or weekly charts.
The open range and trading hours must be adjusted to the market time zone of your instrument. Also please take care that these settings are saved on the layout and not per instrument. Eventually create multiple layouts for instruments with different market time zones.

Be aware that when new zone starts and is not finished yet than the top will trail the high of unfinished zone that could be also at the high of current candle and next candle it can change
Any suggestions are welcomed
RSI Based Automatic Supply and DemandA script that draws supply and demand zones based on the RSI indicator. For example if RSI is under 30 a supply zone is drawn on the chart and extended for as long as there isn't a new crossunder 30. Same goes for above 70. The threshold which by default is set to 30, which means 30 is added to 0 and subtracted from 100 to give us the classic 30/70 threshold on RSI, can be set in the indicator settings.
By only plotting the Demand Below Supply Above indicator you get automatic SD level that is updated every time RSI reaches either 30 or 70. If you plot the Resistance Zone / Support Zone you get an indicator that extends the zone instead of overwrite the earlier zone. Due to the zone being extended the chart can get a bit messy if there isn't a clear range going on.
There is also a "confirmation bars" setting where you can tell the script how many bars under over 30 / 70 you want before a zone is drawn.
Here is an image of only using the "Demand Below / Supply Above" plot.
As you can see, this could be useful "Price Flow" indicator, where we would only short if a zone appears below another zone, or long if two zones in a row are going up, like stairs.
