MA Oscillator Map [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
The MA Oscillator Map transforms moving average deviations into an oscillator framework that highlights overextended price conditions. By normalizing the difference between price and a chosen moving average, the tool maps oscillations between -100 and +100 , with gradient coloring to emphasize bullish and bearish momentum. When the oscillator cools from extreme levels (-100/100), the indicator marks potential reversal points and extends short-term levels from those extremes. A compact side table and dynamic bar coloring make momentum context visible at a glance.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Oscillator Mapping (±100 Scale):
Price deviation from the selected MA is normalized into a percentage scale, allowing consistent overbought/oversold readings across assets and timeframes.
// MA
MA = ma(close, maLengthInput, maTypeInput)
diff = src - MA
maxVal = ta.highest(math.abs(diff), 50)
osc = diff / maxVal * 100
Customizable MA Types:
Choose SMA, EMA, SMMA, WMA, or VWMA to fine-tune the smoothing method that powers the oscillator.
Extreme Signal Diamonds:
When the oscillator retreats from +100 or -100, the script plots diamonds to flag potential exhaustion and reversal zones.
Dynamic Levels from Extremes:
Upper and lower dotted lines extend from recent overextension points, projecting temporary barriers until broken by price.
Gradient Bar Coloring:
Candles and oscillator values adopt a bullish-to-bearish gradient, making shifts in momentum instantly visible on the chart.
Compact Momentum Map:
A table at the chart’s edge plots the oscillator position with a gradient scale and live percentage label for precise momentum tracking.
⯁ USAGE
Watch for diamonds after the oscillator exits ±100 — these mark potential exhaustion zones.
Use extended dotted levels as short-term reference lines; if broken, trend continuation is favored.
Combine gradient bar coloring with oscillator shifts for confirmation of momentum reversals.
Experiment with different MA types to adapt sensitivity for trending vs. ranging markets.
Use the side momentum table as a quick-read gauge of trend strength in percent terms.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The MA Oscillator Map reframes moving average deviations into a visual momentum tracker with extremes, reversal signals, and dynamic levels. By blending oscillator math with intuitive visuals like gradient candles, diamonds, and a live gauge, it helps traders spot overextension, exhaustion, and momentum shifts across any market.

Wolfe Waves [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Wolfe Waves pattern was first introduced by Bill Wolfe , a trader and analyst in the 1980s–1990s who specialized in market geometry and natural rhythm cycles. Wolfe observed that price often forms symmetrical wave structures that anticipate equilibrium points where supply and demand meet. These formations, called Wolfe Waves , gained popularity as a reliable pattern for forecasting both short- and long-term reversals.
The Wolfe Waves indicator automatically detects these patterns in real time. It tracks sequences of five pivots (points 1 through 5) and connects them with wave lines. Users can select either Bullish or Bearish Wolfe Waves depending on their trading bias. When the pattern fails, the lines automatically turn red to highlight invalidation.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Five-Point Structure – Wolfe Waves are defined by five pivots (1–5), which together form the basis of the wave pattern.
Bullish Pattern – Occurs when price compresses downward into point 5, signaling a potential upside reversal.
Bearish Pattern – Occurs when price extends upward into point 5, forecasting a downside reversal.
Validation & Failure – The pattern is considered valid once all five pivots form; if price fails to respect the expected breakout, the indicator marks the structure as broken with red lines.
🔵 FEATURES
Automatic detection of Bullish and Bearish Wolfe Waves.
Labels each pivot (1–5) on the chart for clarity.
Draws connecting lines between pivots to visualize the wave structure.
Projects target/dashed lines (EPA/ETA) based on Wolfe Wave geometry.
Lines automatically turn red when the pattern is broken, giving immediate feedback.
Customizable color scheme for bullish (lime) and bearish (orange) waves.
Adjustable sensitivity for pivot detection.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Choose between Bullish or Bearish mode depending on your analysis.
Watch for the formation of all five pivots; the indicator labels them clearly.
Look for potential entries near point 5, with the expectation that price will travel toward the projected EPA line.
Use invalidation (lines turning red) as a risk management warning to exit failed setups.
Combine with momentum, volume, or higher-timeframe analysis to increase reliability.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Wolfe Waves brings the classic Wolfe Wave theory into an automated TradingView tool. Inspired by Bill Wolfe’s original concept of natural market cycles, this indicator detects, labels, and validates Wolfe Waves in real time. With automatic invalidation marking and customizable settings, it offers traders a structured way to harness one of the most well-known geometric reversal patterns.
Curved Radius Supertrend [BOSWaves]Curved Radius Supertrend — Adaptive Parabolic Trend Framework with Dynamic Acceleration Geometry
Overview
The Curved Radius Supertrend introduces an evolution of the classic Supertrend indicator - engineered with a dynamic curvature engine that replaces rigid ATR bands with parabolic, radius-based motion. Traditional Supertrend systems rely on static band displacement, reacting linearly to volatility and often lagging behind emerging price acceleration. The Curved Radius Supertend model redefines this by integrating controlled acceleration and curvature geometry, allowing the trend bands to adapt fluidly to both velocity and duration of price movement.
The result is a smoother, more organic trend flow that visually captures the momentum curve of price action - not just its direction. Instead of sharp pivots or whipsaws, traders experience a structurally curved trajectory that mirrors real market inertia. This makes it particularly effective for identifying sustained directional phases, detecting early trend rotations, and filtering out noise that plagues standard Supertrend methodologies.
Unlike conventional band-following systems, the Curved Radius framework is time-reactive and velocity-aware, providing a nuanced signal structure that blends geometric precision with volatility sensitivity.
Theoretical Foundation
The Curved Radius Supertrend draws from the intersection of mathematical curvature dynamics and adaptive volatility processing. Standard Supertrend algorithms extend from Average True Range (ATR) envelopes - a linear measure of volatility that moves proportionally with price deviation. However, markets do not expand or contract linearly. Trend velocity typically accelerates and decelerates in nonlinear arcs, forming natural parabolas across price phases.
By embedding a radius-based acceleration function, the indicator models this natural behavior. The core variable, radiusStrength, controls how aggressively curvature accelerates over time. Instead of simply following price distance, the band now evolves according to temporal acceleration - each bar contributes incremental velocity, bending the trend line into a radius-like curve.
This structural design allows the indicator to anticipate rather than just respond to price action, capturing momentum transitions as curved accelerations rather than binary flips. In practice, this eliminates the stutter effect typical of standard Supertrends and replaces it with fluid directional motion that better reflects actual trend geometry.
How It Works
The Curved Radius Supertrend is constructed through a multi-stage process designed to balance price responsiveness with geometric stability:
1. Baseline Supertrend Core
The framework begins with a standard ATR-derived upper and lower band calculation. These define the volatility envelope that constrains potential price zones. Directional bias is determined through crossover logic - prices above the lower band confirm an uptrend, while prices below the upper band confirm a downtrend.
2. Curvature Acceleration Engine
Once a trend direction is established, a curvature engine is activated. This system uses radiusStrength as a coefficient to simulate acceleration per bar, incrementally increasing velocity over time. The result is a parabolic displacement from the anchor price (the price level at trend change), creating a curved motion path that dynamically widens or tightens as the trend matures.
Mathematically, this acceleration behaves quadratically - each new bar compounds the previous velocity, forming an exponential rate of displacement that resembles curved inertia.
3. Adaptive Smoothing Layer
After the radius curve is applied, a smoothing stage (defined by the smoothness parameter) uses a simple moving average to regulate curve noise. This ensures visual coherence without sacrificing responsiveness, producing flowing arcs rather than jagged band steps.
4. Directional Visualization and Outer Envelope
Directional state (bullish or bearish) dictates both the color gradient and band displacement. An outer envelope is plotted one ATR beyond the curved band, creating a layered trend visualization that shows the extent of volatility expansion.
5. Signal Events and Alerts
Each directional transition triggers a 'BUY' or 'SELL' signal, clearly labeling phase shifts in market structure. Alerts are built in for automation and backtesting.
Interpretation
The Curved Radius Supertrend reframes how traders visualize and confirm trends. Instead of simply plotting a trailing stop, it maps the dynamic curvature of trend development.
Uptrend Phases : The band curves upward with increasing acceleration, reflecting the market’s growing directional velocity. As curvature steepens, conviction strengthens.
Downtrend Phases : The band bends downward in a mirrored acceleration pattern, indicating sustained bearish momentum.
Trend Change Points : When the direction flips and a new anchor point forms, the curve resets - providing a clean, early visual confirmation of structural reversal.
Smoothing and Radius Interplay : A lower radius strength produces a tighter, more reactive curve ideal for scalping or short timeframes. Higher values generate broad, sweeping arcs optimized for swing or positional analysis.
Visually, this curvature system translates market inertia into shape - revealing how trends bend, accelerate, and ultimately exhaust.
Strategy Integration
The Curved Radius Supertrend is versatile enough to integrate seamlessly into multiple trading frameworks:
Trend Following : Use BUY/SELL flips to identify emerging directional bias. Strong curvature continuation confirms sustained momentum.
Momentum Entry Filtering : Combine with oscillators or volume tools to filter entries only when the curve slope accelerates (high momentum conditions).
Pullback and Re-entry Timing : The smooth curvature of the radius band allows traders to identify shallow retracements without premature exits. The band acts as a dynamic, self-adjusting support/resistance arc.
Volatility Compression and Expansion : Flattening curvature indicates volatility compression - a potential pre-breakout zone. Rapid re-steepening signals expansion and directional conviction.
Stop Placement Framework : The curved band can serve as a volatility-adjusted trailing stop. Because the curve reflects acceleration, it adapts naturally to market rhythm - widening during momentum surges and tightening during stagnation.
Technical Implementation Details
Curved Radius Engine : Parabolic acceleration algorithm that applies quadratic velocity based on bar count and radiusStrength.
Anchor Logic : Resets curvature at each trend change, establishing a new reference base for directional acceleration.
Smoothing Layer : SMA-based curve smoothing for noise reduction.
Outer Envelope : ATR-derived band offset visualizing volatility extension.
Directional Coloring : Candle and band coloration tied to current trend state.
Signal Engine : Built-in BUY/SELL markers and alert conditions for automation or script integration.
Optimal Application Parameters
Timeframe Guidance :
1-5 min (Scalping) : 0.08–0.12 radius strength, minimal smoothing for rapid responsiveness.
15 min : 0.12–0.15 radius strength for intraday trends.
1H : 0.15–0.18 radius strength for structured short-term swing setups.
4H : 0.18–0.22 radius strength for macro-trend shaping.
Daily : 0.20–0.25 radius strength for broad directional curves.
Weekly : 0.25–0.30 radius strength for smooth macro-level cycles.
The suggested radius strength ranges provide general structural guidance. Optimal values may vary across assets and volatility regimes, and should be refined through empirical testing to account for instrument-specific behavior and prevailing market conditions.
Asset Guidance :
Cryptocurrency : Higher radius and multiplier values to stabilize high-volatility environments.
Forex : Midrange settings (0.12-0.18) for clean curvature transitions.
Equities : Balanced curvature for trending sectors or momentum rotation setups.
Indices/Futures : Moderate radius values (0.15-0.22) to capture cyclical macro swings.
Performance Characteristics
High Effectiveness :
Trending environments with directional expansion.
Markets exhibiting clean momentum arcs and low structural noise.
Reduced Effectiveness :
Range-bound or low-volatility conditions with repeated false flips.
Ultra-short-term timeframes (<1m) where curvature acceleration overshoots.
Integration Guidelines
Confluence Framework : Combine with structure tools (order blocks, BOS, liquidity zones) for entry validation.
Risk Management : Trail stops along the curved band rather than fixed points to align with adaptive market geometry.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation : Use higher timeframe curvature as a trend filter and lower timeframe curvature for execution timing.
Curve Compression Awareness : Treat flattening arcs as potential exhaustion zones - ideal for scaling out or reducing exposure.
Disclaimer
The Curved Radius Supertrend is a geometric trend model designed for professional traders and analysts. It is not a predictive system or a guaranteed profit method. Its performance depends on correct parameter calibration and sound risk management. BOSWaves recommends using it as part of a comprehensive analytical framework, incorporating volume, liquidity, and structural context to validate directional signals.
Bitgak [Osprey]🟠 INTRODUCTION
Bitgak , translated as "Oblique Angle" in Korean, is a strategy used by multi-hundred-million traders in Korea, sometimes more heavily than Fibonacci retracement.
It is a concept that by connecting two or more pivot points on the chart and creating equidistant parallel lines, we can spot other pivot points. As seen in the example, a line at a different height but with the same angle spots many pivot points.
This indicator spots pivot points on the chart and tests all different possible Bitgak lines with a brute-force method. Then it shows the parallel line configuration with the most pivots hitting it. You may use the lines drawn on the chart as possible reversal points.
It is best to use on Day and Week candles . In the very short range of time, the noise makes it hard to capture meaningful data.
🟠 HOW TO USE
The orange dots are the major pivot points (you can set the period of the long-term pivot) upon which the lines are built.
Change the "Manual Lookback Bars" from 300 to a meaningful period upon your inspection.
"Hit Tolerance %" means how close a pivot needs to be to the line to be considered as having touched the line.
If the line is too narrow, which is not very useful, you may consider increasing the "Long-term Pivot Bars" and experimenting with different settings for Channel Lines and Heuristics.
The result:
"Top Anchors to Test (L)" is how many L highest peaks and L lowest troughs should be weighed heavily when testing the lines. That is, with L = 1, the algorithm will reward the Bitgak lines that touch 1 highest peak and 1 lowest trough. It doesn't make much intuitive sense, so I suggest just testing it out.
🟠 HOW IT WORKS
Step 1: Pivot Detection
The indicator runs two parallel detection systems:
Short-term pivots (default: 7 bars on each side) - Captures minor swing highs/lows for detailed analysis
Long-term pivots (default: 17 bars on each side) - Identifies major structural turning points
These pivots form the foundation for all channel calculations.
Step 2: Anchor Point Selection
From the detected long-term pivots, the algorithm identifies:
The L highest peaks (default L=1, meaning the single highest peak)
The L lowest troughs (default L=1, meaning the single lowest trough)
These become potential "anchor points" for channel construction. Higher L values test more combinations but increase computation time.
Step 3: Channel Candidate Generation
For support channels: Every pair of troughs becomes a potential base line (A-B)
For resistance channels: Every pair of peaks becomes a potential base line (A-B)
The algorithm then tests each peak (for support) or trough (for resistance) as pivot C.
Step 4: Optimal Spacing Calculation
For each A-B-C combination, the algorithm calculates:
Unit Spacing = (Distance from C to A-B line) / Multiplier
It tests multipliers from 0.5 to 4.0 (or your custom range), asking: "If pivot C sits on the 1.0 line, what spacing makes the most pivots hit other lines?"
Step 5: Scoring & Selection
Each configuration is scored by counting how many pivots fall within tolerance (default 1% of price) of any parallel line in the range . The highest-scoring channel is drawn on your chart.
Scalper Pro Pattern Recognition & Price ActionOVERVIEW
Scalper Pro is a comprehensive multi-timeframe trading indicator that combines Smart Money Concepts (SMC) with traditional technical analysis to provide scalpers and day traders with high-probability entry and exit signals. This indicator integrates multiple analytical frameworks into a unified visual system designed specifically for short-term trading strategies.
ORIGINALITY & PURPOSE
What Makes This Script Original
This script is not a simple mashup of existing indicators. Instead, it represents a carefully orchestrated integration of complementary analytical methods that work together to solve a specific problem: identifying high-probability scalping opportunities in volatile markets.
The unique value proposition:
Adaptive Trend Filtering System - Combines a customized SuperTrend algorithm with dual-period range filters (Cirrus Cloud) and Hull Moving Average trend cloud to create a three-layer trend confirmation system
Smart Money Concepts Integration - Incorporates institutional trading concepts (Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, Break of Structure) with retail technical indicators for a complete market structure view
Dynamic Risk Management - Automatically calculates stop-loss and take-profit levels based on ATR volatility, providing objective position sizing
ADX-Based Market Regime Detection - Identifies ranging vs. trending markets through ADX analysis with visual bar coloring to prevent whipsaws during consolidation
Why Combine These Specific Components
Each component addresses a specific weakness in scalping:
SuperTrend provides the primary directional bias but can generate false signals in ranging markets
Range Filters smooth out noise and confirm trend direction, reducing SuperTrend false positives
ADX Analysis prevents trading during low-volatility consolidation when most indicators fail
SMC Elements identify institutional activity zones where price is likely to react strongly
ATR-Based Risk Management adapts position sizing to current volatility conditions
The synergy creates a system where signals are only generated when multiple confirmation layers align, significantly reducing false signals common in single-indicator approaches.
HOW IT WORKS
Core Calculation Methodology
1. SuperTrend Signal Generation
The script uses a modified SuperTrend algorithm with the following calculation:
ATR = Average True Range (default: 10 periods)
Factor = 7 (default sensitivity multiplier)
Upper Band = Source + (Factor × ATR)
Lower Band = Source - (Factor × ATR)
Directional Logic:
When price crosses above SuperTrend → Bullish signal
When price crosses below SuperTrend → Bearish signal
SuperTrend value is plotted as dynamic support/resistance
Key Modification: The sensitivity parameter (nsensitivity * 7) allows users to adjust the aggressiveness of trend detection without changing the core ATR calculation.
2. Range Filter System (Cirrus Cloud)
The Range Filter uses a smoothed range calculation to filter out market noise:
Smooth Range Calculation:
WPER = (Period × 2) - 1
AVRNG = EMA(|Price - Price |, Period)
Smooth Range = EMA(AVRNG, WPER) × Multiplier
Two-Layer System:
Layer 1: 22-period with 6x multiplier (broader trend)
Layer 2: 15-period with 5x multiplier (tighter price action)
Visual Output: The space between these two filters is colored:
Green fill = Bullish trend (Layer 1 > Layer 2)
Red fill = Bearish trend (Layer 1 < Layer 2)
This creates a "cloud" that expands during strong trends and contracts during consolidation.
3. ADX Market Regime Detection
Calculation:
+DM = Positive Directional Movement
-DM = Negative Directional Movement
True Range = RMA of True Range (15 periods)
+DI = 100 × RMA(+DM, 15) / True Range
-DI = 100 × RMA(-DM, 15) / True Range
ADX = 100 × RMA(|+DI - -DI| / (+DI + -DI), 15)
Threshold System:
ADX < Threshold (default 15) = Ranging market → Bar color changes to purple
ADX > Threshold = Trending market → Normal bar coloring applies
Purpose: This prevents taking trend-following signals during sideways markets where most indicators produce whipsaws.
4. Smart Money Concepts (SMC) Integration
Order Blocks (OB):
Identified using swing high/low detection with customizable pivot length
Bullish OB: Last down-close candle before bullish Break of Structure (BOS)
Bearish OB: Last up-close candle before bearish BOS
Extended forward until price breaks through them
Fair Value Gaps (FVG):
Detected when a three-candle gap exists:
Bullish FVG: Low > High
Bearish FVG: High < Low
Filtered by price delta percentage to ensure significant gaps
Displayed as boxes that delete when price fills the gap
Break of Structure (BOS) vs. Change of Character (CHoCH):
BOS = Price breaks the previous structural high/low in the current trend direction
CHoCH = Price breaks structure in the opposite direction (potential trend reversal)
Both internal (minor) and swing (major) structures are tracked
Equal Highs/Lows (EQH/EQL):
Detected when consecutive swing highs/lows are within ATR threshold
Often indicates liquidity pools that price may sweep before reversing
5. ATR-Based Risk Management
Calculation:
ATR Band = ATR(14) × Risk Multiplier (default 3%)
Stop Loss = Entry - ATR Band (for longs) or Entry + ATR Band (for shorts)
Take Profit Levels:
TP1 = Entry + (Entry - Stop Loss) × 1
TP2 = Entry + (Entry - Stop Loss) × 2
TP3 = Entry + (Entry - Stop Loss) × 3
Dynamic Labels: Stop loss and take profit levels are automatically calculated and displayed as labels on the chart when new signals trigger.
6. Hull Moving Average Trend Cloud
HMA = WMA(2 × WMA(Close, Period/2) - WMA(Close, Period), sqrt(Period))
Period = 600 bars (long-term trend)
The HMA provides a smoothed long-term trend reference that's more responsive than traditional moving averages while filtering out short-term noise.

THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
Trend-Following Concepts
This indicator is based on the principle that markets trend more often than they range, and that trends tend to persist. The SuperTrend component captures this momentum while the range filters prevent premature entries during pullbacks.
Smart Money Theory
The SMC elements are based on the concept that institutional traders (banks, hedge funds) leave footprints in the form of:
Order Blocks: Areas where large orders were placed
Fair Value Gaps: Inefficient price movements that may be revisited
Liquidity Sweeps: Stop hunts before continuation (EQH/EQL)
Volatility-Based Position Sizing
Using ATR for stop-loss placement ensures that stop distances adapt to current market conditions:
Tight stops in low volatility (avoids excessive risk)
Wider stops in high volatility (avoids premature stop-outs)
PERFORMANCE EXPECTATIONS
Realistic Expectations
Win Rate:
Expected: 45-55% (trend-following systems rarely exceed 60%)
Higher win rates on trending days
Lower win rates during consolidation (even with ADX filter)
Risk-Reward Ratio:
Target: 1.5:1 minimum (TP2)
Achievable: 2:1 to 3:1 on strong trends
Drawdowns:
Normal: 10-15% of account during choppy periods
Maximum: Should not exceed 20% with proper risk management
Optimization Tips
Backtesting Recommendations:
Test on at least 1 year of historical data
Include different market conditions (trending, ranging, volatile)
Adjust SuperTrend sensitivity per instrument
Optimize ADX threshold for your specific market
Record trades to identify personal execution errors
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Can I use this for automated trading?
A: The indicator provides signals, but you'll need to code a strategy script separately for automation. The signals can trigger alerts that connect to trading bots.
Q: Why do I see conflicting signals?
A: This is normal during transition periods. Wait for all confirmation layers to align before entering.
Q: How often should I expect signals?
A: Depends on timeframe and market conditions. On 5m charts during trending markets: 3-7 quality setups per session.
Q: Can I use only some features?
A: Yes, all components can be toggled on/off. However, the system works best with all confirmations active.
Q: What's the difference between internal and swing structures?
A: Internal = minor price structures (smaller pivots). Swing = major price structures (larger pivots). Both provide different levels of confirmation.

SuperTrend Indicator: Study original SuperTrend strategy papers
SuperBandsI've been seeing a lot of volatility band indicators pop up recently, and after watching this trend for a while, I figured it was time to throw my two chips in. The original spark for this idea came years ago from RicardoSantos's Vector Flow Channel script, which used decay channels with timed events in an interesting way. That concept stuck with me, and I kept thinking about how to build something that captured the same kind of dynamic envelope behavior but with a different mathematical foundation. What I ended up with is a hybrid that takes the core logic of supertrend trailing stops, smooths them heavily with exponential moving averages, and wraps them in Donchian-style filled bands with momentum-based color gradients.
The basic mechanism here is pretty straightforward. Standard supertrend calculates a trailing stop based on ATR offset from price, then flips direction when price crosses the trail. This implementation does the same thing but adds EMA smoothing to the trail calculation itself, which removes a lot of the choppiness you get from raw supertrend during sideways periods. The smoothing period is adjustable, so you can tune how reactive versus stable you want the bands to be. Lower smoothing values make the bands track price more aggressively, higher values create wider, slower-moving envelopes that only respond to sustained directional moves.
Where this diverges from typical supertrend implementations is in the visual presentation and the separate treatment of bullish and bearish conditions. Instead of a single flipping line, you get persistent upper and lower bands that each track their own trailing stops independently. The bullish band trails below price and stays active as long as price doesn't break below it. The bearish band trails above price and remains active until price breaks above. Both bands can be visible simultaneously, which gives you a dynamic channel that adapts to volatility on both sides of price action. When price is trending strongly, one band will dominate and the other will disappear. During consolidation, both bands tend to compress toward price.
The color gradients are calculated by measuring the rate of change in each band's position and converting that delta into an angle using arctangent scaling. Steeper angles, which correspond to the band moving quickly to catch up with accelerating price, get brighter colors. Flatter angles, where the band is moving slowly or staying relatively stable, fade toward more muted tones. This gives you a visual sense of momentum within the bands themselves, not just from price movement. A rapidly brightening band often precedes expansion or breakout conditions, while fading colors suggest the trend is losing steam or entering consolidation.
The filled regions between price and each band serve a similar function to Donchian channels or Keltner bands, creating clearly defined zones that represent normal price behavior relative to recent volatility. When price hugs one band and the fill area compresses, you're in a strong directional regime. When price bounces between both bands and the fills expand, you're in a ranging environment. The transparency gradients in the fills make it easier to see when price is near the edge of the envelope versus safely inside it.
Configuration is split between bullish and bearish settings, which lets you asymmetrically tune the indicator if you find that your market or timeframe has different characteristics in uptrends versus downtrends. You can adjust ATR period, ATR multiplier, and smoothing independently for each direction. This flexibility is useful for instruments that exhibit different volatility profiles during bull and bear phases, or for strategies that want tighter trailing on longs than shorts, or vice versa.
The ATR period controls the lookback window for volatility measurement. Shorter periods make the bands react quickly to recent volatility spikes, which can be beneficial in fast-moving markets but also leads to more frequent whipsaws. Longer periods smooth out volatility estimates and create more stable bands at the cost of slower adaptation. The multiplier scales the ATR offset, directly controlling how far the bands sit from price. Smaller multipliers keep the bands tight, triggering more frequent direction changes. Larger multipliers create wider envelopes that give price more room to move without breaking the trail.
One thing to note is that this indicator doesn't generate explicit buy or sell signals in the traditional sense. It's a regime filter and envelope tool. You can use band breaks as directional cues if you want, but the primary value comes from understanding the current volatility environment and whether price is respecting or violating its recent behavioral boundaries. Pairing this with momentum oscillators or volume analysis tends to work better than treating band breaks as standalone entries.
From an implementation perspective, the supertrend state machine tracks whether each direction's trail is active, handles resets when price breaks through, and manages the EMA smoothing on the trail points themselves rather than just post-processing the supertrend output. This means the smoothing is baked into the trailing logic, which creates a different response curve than if you just applied an EMA to a standard supertrend line. The angle calculations use RMS estimation for the delta normalization range, which adapts to changing volatility and keeps the color gradients responsive across different market conditions.
What this really demonstrates is that there are endless ways to combine basic technical concepts into something that feels fresh without reinventing mathematics. ATR offsets, trailing stops, EMA smoothing, and Donchian fills are all standard building blocks, but arranging them in a particular way produces behavior that's distinct from each component alone. Whether this particular arrangement works better than other volatility band systems depends entirely on your market, timeframe, and what you're trying to accomplish. For me, it scratched the itch I had from seeing Vector Flow years ago and wanting to build something in that same conceptual space using tools I'm more comfortable with.
Volume Profile, Pivot Anchored by DGT - reviewedVolume Profile, Pivot Anchored by DGT - reviewed
This indicator, “Volume Profile, Pivot Anchored”, builds a volume profile between swing highs and lows (pivot points) to show where trading activity is concentrated.
It highlights:
Value Area (VAH / VAL) and Point of Control (POC)
Volume distribution by price level
Pivot-based labels showing price, % change, and volume
Optional colored candles based on volume strength relative to the average
Essentially, it visualizes how volume is distributed between market pivots to reveal key price zones and volume imbalances.
Inside SwingsOverview
The Inside Swings indicator identifies and visualizes "inside swing" patterns in price action. These patterns occur when price creates a series of pivots that form overlapping ranges, indicating potential consolidation or reversal zones.
What are Inside Swings?
Inside swings are specific pivot patterns where:
- HLHL Pattern: High-Low-High-Low sequence where the first high is higher than the second high, and the first low is lower than the second low
- LHLH Pattern: Low-High-Low-High sequence where the first low is lower than the second low, and the first high is higher than the second high
Here an Example
These patterns create overlapping price ranges that often act as:
- Support/Resistance zones
- Consolidation areas
- Potential reversal points
- Breakout levels

Scalper Pro Pattern Recognition & Price ActionOVERVIEW
Scalper Pro is a comprehensive multi-timeframe trading indicator that combines Smart Money Concepts (SMC) with traditional technical analysis to provide scalpers and day traders with high-probability entry and exit signals. This indicator integrates multiple analytical frameworks into a unified visual system designed specifically for short-term trading strategies.
ORIGINALITY & PURPOSE
What Makes This Script Original
This script is not a simple mashup of existing indicators. Instead, it represents a carefully orchestrated integration of complementary analytical methods that work together to solve a specific problem: identifying high-probability scalping opportunities in volatile markets.
The unique value proposition:
Adaptive Trend Filtering System - Combines a customized SuperTrend algorithm with dual-period range filters (Cirrus Cloud) and Hull Moving Average trend cloud to create a three-layer trend confirmation system
Smart Money Concepts Integration - Incorporates institutional trading concepts (Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, Break of Structure) with retail technical indicators for a complete market structure view
Dynamic Risk Management - Automatically calculates stop-loss and take-profit levels based on ATR volatility, providing objective position sizing
ADX-Based Market Regime Detection - Identifies ranging vs. trending markets through ADX analysis with visual bar coloring to prevent whipsaws during consolidation
Why Combine These Specific Components
Each component addresses a specific weakness in scalping:
SuperTrend provides the primary directional bias but can generate false signals in ranging markets
Range Filters smooth out noise and confirm trend direction, reducing SuperTrend false positives
ADX Analysis prevents trading during low-volatility consolidation when most indicators fail
SMC Elements identify institutional activity zones where price is likely to react strongly
ATR-Based Risk Management adapts position sizing to current volatility conditions
The synergy creates a system where signals are only generated when multiple confirmation layers align, significantly reducing false signals common in single-indicator approaches.
HOW IT WORKS
Core Calculation Methodology
1. SuperTrend Signal Generation
The script uses a modified SuperTrend algorithm with the following calculation:
ATR = Average True Range (default: 10 periods)
Factor = 7 (default sensitivity multiplier)
Upper Band = Source + (Factor × ATR)
Lower Band = Source - (Factor × ATR)
Directional Logic:
When price crosses above SuperTrend → Bullish signal
When price crosses below SuperTrend → Bearish signal
SuperTrend value is plotted as dynamic support/resistance
Key Modification: The sensitivity parameter (nsensitivity * 7) allows users to adjust the aggressiveness of trend detection without changing the core ATR calculation.
2. Range Filter System (Cirrus Cloud)
The Range Filter uses a smoothed range calculation to filter out market noise:
Smooth Range Calculation:
WPER = (Period × 2) - 1
AVRNG = EMA(|Price - Price |, Period)
Smooth Range = EMA(AVRNG, WPER) × Multiplier
Two-Layer System:
Layer 1: 22-period with 6x multiplier (broader trend)
Layer 2: 15-period with 5x multiplier (tighter price action)
Visual Output: The space between these two filters is colored:
Green fill = Bullish trend (Layer 1 > Layer 2)
Red fill = Bearish trend (Layer 1 < Layer 2)
This creates a "cloud" that expands during strong trends and contracts during consolidation.
3. ADX Market Regime Detection
Calculation:
+DM = Positive Directional Movement
-DM = Negative Directional Movement
True Range = RMA of True Range (15 periods)
+DI = 100 × RMA(+DM, 15) / True Range
-DI = 100 × RMA(-DM, 15) / True Range
ADX = 100 × RMA(|+DI - -DI| / (+DI + -DI), 15)
Threshold System:
ADX < Threshold (default 15) = Ranging market → Bar color changes to purple
ADX > Threshold = Trending market → Normal bar coloring applies
Purpose: This prevents taking trend-following signals during sideways markets where most indicators produce whipsaws.
4. Smart Money Concepts (SMC) Integration
Order Blocks (OB):
Identified using swing high/low detection with customizable pivot length
Bullish OB: Last down-close candle before bullish Break of Structure (BOS)
Bearish OB: Last up-close candle before bearish BOS
Extended forward until price breaks through them
Fair Value Gaps (FVG):
Detected when a three-candle gap exists:
Bullish FVG: Low > High
Bearish FVG: High < Low
Filtered by price delta percentage to ensure significant gaps
Displayed as boxes that delete when price fills the gap
Break of Structure (BOS) vs. Change of Character (CHoCH):
BOS = Price breaks the previous structural high/low in the current trend direction
CHoCH = Price breaks structure in the opposite direction (potential trend reversal)
Both internal (minor) and swing (major) structures are tracked
Equal Highs/Lows (EQH/EQL):
Detected when consecutive swing highs/lows are within ATR threshold
Often indicates liquidity pools that price may sweep before reversing
5. ATR-Based Risk Management
Calculation:
ATR Band = ATR(14) × Risk Multiplier (default 3%)
Stop Loss = Entry - ATR Band (for longs) or Entry + ATR Band (for shorts)
Take Profit Levels:
TP1 = Entry + (Entry - Stop Loss) × 1
TP2 = Entry + (Entry - Stop Loss) × 2
TP3 = Entry + (Entry - Stop Loss) × 3
Dynamic Labels: Stop loss and take profit levels are automatically calculated and displayed as labels on the chart when new signals trigger.
6. Hull Moving Average Trend Cloud
HMA = WMA(2 × WMA(Close, Period/2) - WMA(Close, Period), sqrt(Period))
Period = 600 bars (long-term trend)
The HMA provides a smoothed long-term trend reference that's more responsive than traditional moving averages while filtering out short-term noise.

THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
Trend-Following Concepts
This indicator is based on the principle that markets trend more often than they range, and that trends tend to persist. The SuperTrend component captures this momentum while the range filters prevent premature entries during pullbacks.
Smart Money Theory
The SMC elements are based on the concept that institutional traders (banks, hedge funds) leave footprints in the form of:
Order Blocks: Areas where large orders were placed
Fair Value Gaps: Inefficient price movements that may be revisited
Liquidity Sweeps: Stop hunts before continuation (EQH/EQL)
Volatility-Based Position Sizing
Using ATR for stop-loss placement ensures that stop distances adapt to current market conditions:
Tight stops in low volatility (avoids excessive risk)
Wider stops in high volatility (avoids premature stop-outs)
PERFORMANCE EXPECTATIONS
Realistic Expectations
Win Rate:
Expected: 45-55% (trend-following systems rarely exceed 60%)
Higher win rates on trending days
Lower win rates during consolidation (even with ADX filter)
Risk-Reward Ratio:
Target: 1.5:1 minimum (TP2)
Achievable: 2:1 to 3:1 on strong trends
Drawdowns:
Normal: 10-15% of account during choppy periods
Maximum: Should not exceed 20% with proper risk management
Optimization Tips
Backtesting Recommendations:
Test on at least 1 year of historical data
Include different market conditions (trending, ranging, volatile)
Adjust SuperTrend sensitivity per instrument
Optimize ADX threshold for your specific market
Record trades to identify personal execution errors
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Can I use this for automated trading?
A: The indicator provides signals, but you'll need to code a strategy script separately for automation. The signals can trigger alerts that connect to trading bots.
Q: Why do I see conflicting signals?
A: This is normal during transition periods. Wait for all confirmation layers to align before entering.
Q: How often should I expect signals?
A: Depends on timeframe and market conditions. On 5m charts during trending markets: 3-7 quality setups per session.
Q: Can I use only some features?
A: Yes, all components can be toggled on/off. However, the system works best with all confirmations active.
Q: What's the difference between internal and swing structures?
A: Internal = minor price structures (smaller pivots). Swing = major price structures (larger pivots). Both provide different levels of confirmation.

Buying Climax + Spring [Darwinian]Buying Climax + Spring Indicator
Overview
Advanced Wyckoff-based indicator that identifies potential market reversals through **Buying Climax** patterns (exhaustion tops) and **Spring** patterns (accumulation bottoms). Designed for traders seeking high-probability reversal signals with strict uptrend validation.
---
Method
🔴 Buying Climax Detection
Identifies exhaustion patterns at market tops using multi-condition analysis:
**Base Buying Climax (Red Triangle)**
- Volume spike > 1.8x average
- Range expansion > 1.8x average
- New 20-bar high reached
- Close finishes in lower 30% of bar range
- **Strict uptrend validation**: Price must be 30%+ above 20-day low
**Enhanced Buying Climax (Maroon Triangle)**
- All Base BC conditions PLUS:
- Gap up from previous high
- Intraday fade (close < open and below midpoint)
- **Higher confidence reversal signal**
🟢 Wyckoff Spring Detection
Identifies accumulation patterns at support levels:
- Price breaks below recent pivot low (false breakdown)
- Close recovers above pivot level (rejection)
- Occurs at trading range low
- Optional volume confirmation (1.5x+ average)
- Limited to 3 attempts per pivot (prevents over-signaling)
✅ Uptrend Validation Filter
**Four-condition composite filter** prevents false signals in sideways/downtrending markets:
1. Close-to-close rise ≥ 5% over lookback period
2. Price structure: Close > MA(10) > MA(20)
3. Swing low significantly below current price
4. **Primary requirement**: Current high ≥ 30% above 20-day low
---
Input Tuning Guide
Buying Climax Settings:
**Volume & Range Thresholds**
- `Volume Spike Threshold`: Default 1.8x
- Lower (1.5x) = More signals, more noise
- Higher (2.0-2.5x) = Fewer but stronger exhaustion signals
- `Range Spike Threshold`: Default 1.8x
- Adjust parallel to volume threshold
- Higher values = extreme volatility required
**Pattern Detection**
- `New High Lookback`: Default 20 bars
- Shorter (10-15) = Recent highs only
- Longer (30-50) = Major breakout detection
- `Close Off High Fraction`: Default 0.3 (30%)
- Lower (0.2) = Stricter rejection requirement
- Higher (0.4-0.5) = Allow weaker intraday fades
- `Gap Threshold`: Default 0.002 (0.2%)
- Increase (0.005-0.01) for stocks with wider spreads
- Decrease (0.001) for tight-spread instruments
- `Confirmation Window`: Default 5 bars
- Shorter (3) = Faster confirmation, more false positives
- Longer (7-10) = Wait for deeper automatic reaction
Uptrend Filter Settings
**Critical for Signal Quality**
- `Minimum Rise from 20-day Low`: Default 0.30 (30%)
- **Most important parameter**
- Lower (0.20-0.25) = More signals in moderate uptrends
- Higher (0.40-0.50) = Only extreme parabolic moves
- `Pole Lookback`: Default 30 bars
- Shorter (20) = Recent momentum focus
- Longer (40-50) = Longer-term trend validation
- `Minimum Rise % for Pole`: Default 0.05 (5%)
- Adjust based on market volatility
- Higher in strong bull markets (7-10%)
Wyckoff Spring Settings
- `Pivot Length`: Default 6 bars
- Shorter (3-4) = More frequent pivots, more signals
- Longer (8-10) = Major support/resistance only
- `Volume Threshold`: Default 1.5x
- Higher (1.8-2.0x) = Stronger conviction required
- Disable volume requirement for low-volume stocks
- `Trading Range Period`: Default 20 bars
- Match to consolidation timeframe being traded
- Shorter (10-15) for intraday patterns
- Longer (30-40) for weekly consolidations
---
Recommended Workflow
1. **Start with defaults** on daily timeframe
2. **Adjust uptrend filter** first (30% rise parameter)
- Too many signals? Increase to 35-40%
- Too few? Decrease to 25%
3. **Fine-tune volume/range multipliers** based on instrument volatility
4. **Enable alerts** for real-time monitoring:
- Base BC → Initial warning
- Enhanced BC → High-priority reversal
- Confirmed BC (AR) → Strong follow-through
- Spring → Accumulation opportunity
---
Alert System
- **Base Buying Climax**: Standard exhaustion pattern detected
- **Enhanced BC (Gap+Fade)**: Higher confidence reversal setup
- **Confirmed BC (AR)**: Automatic reaction validated (price drops below BC midline)
- **Wyckoff Spring**: Accumulation pattern at support
---
Best Practices
- Combine with support/resistance analysis
- Watch for BC clusters (multiple timeframes)
- Spring patterns work best after Buying Climax distribution
- Backtest parameters on your specific instruments
- Higher timeframes (daily/weekly) = higher reliability
---
Technical Notes
- Built with Pine Script v6
- No repainting (signals finalize on bar close)
- Minimal CPU usage (optimized calculations)
- Works on all timeframes and instruments
- Overlay indicator (displays on price chart)

*Indicator follows classical Wyckoff methodology with modern volatility filters*
Smart Money Dynamics Blocks — Pearson MatrixSmart Money Dynamics Blocks — Pearson Matrix
A structural fusion of Prime Number Theory, Pearson Correlation, and Cumulative Delta Geometry.
1. Mathematical Foundation
This indicator is built on the intersection of Prime Number Theory and the Pearson correlation coefficient, creating a structural framework that quantifies how price and time evolve together.
Prime numbers — unique, indivisible, and irregular — are used here as nonlinear time intervals. Each prime length (2, 3, 5, 7, 11…97) represents a regression horizon where correlation is measured between price and time. The result is a multi-scale correlation lattice — a geometric matrix that captures hidden directional strength and temporal bias beyond traditional moving averages.
2. The Pearson Matrix Logic
For every prime interval p, the indicator calculates the linear correlation:
r_p = corr(price, bar_index, p)
Each r_p reflects how closely price and time move together across a prime-defined window. All r_p values are then averaged to create avgR, a single adaptive coefficient summarizing overall structural coherence.
- When avgR > 0.8 → strong positive correlation (labeled R+).
- When avgR < -0.8 → strong negative correlation (labeled R−).
This approach gives a mathematically grounded definition of trend — one that isn’t based on pattern recognition, but on measurable correlation strength.
3. Sequential Prime Slope and Median Pivot
Using the ordered sequence of 25 prime intervals, the model computes sequential slopes between adjacent primes. These slopes represent the rate of change of structure between two prime scales. A robust median aggregator smooths the slopes, producing a clean, stable directional vector.
The system anchors this slope to the 41-bar pivot — the median of the first 25 primes — serving as the geometric midpoint of the prime lattice. The resulting yellow line on the chart is not an ordinary regression line; it’s a dynamic prime-slope function, adapting continuously with correlation feedback.
4. Regression-Style Parallel Bands
Around this prime-slope line, the indicator constructs parallel bands using standard deviation envelopes — conceptually similar to a regression channel but recalculated through the prime–Pearson matrix.
These bands adjust dynamically to:
- Volatility, via standard deviation of residuals.
- Correlation strength, via avgR sign weighting.
Together, they visualize statistical deviation geometry, making it easier to observe symmetry, expansion, and contraction phases of price structure.
5. Volume and Cumulative Delta Peaks
Below the geometric layer, the indicator incorporates a custom lower-timeframe volume feed — by default using 15-second data (custom_tf_input_volume = “15S”). This allows precise delta computation between up-volume and down-volume even on higher timeframe charts.
From this feed, the indicator accumulates delta over a configurable period (default: 100 bars). When cumulative delta reaches a local maximum or minimum, peak and trough markers appear, showing the precise bar where buying or selling pressure statistically peaked.
This combination of geometry and order flow reveals the intersection of market structure and energy — where liquidity pressure expresses itself through mathematical form.
6. Chart Interpretation
The primary chart view represents the live execution of the indicator. It displays the relationship between structural correlation and volume behavior in real time.
Orange “R+” and blue “R−” labels indicate regions of strong positive or negative Pearson correlation across the prime matrix. The yellow median prime-slope line serves as the structural backbone of the indicator, while green and red parallel bands act as dynamic regression boundaries derived from the underlying correlation strength. Peaks and troughs in cumulative delta — displayed as numerical annotations — mark statistically significant shifts in buying and selling pressure.
The secondary visualization (Prime Regression Concept) expands on this by illustrating how regression behavior evolves across prime intervals. Each colored regression fan corresponds to a prime number window (2, 3, 5, 7, …, 97), demonstrating how multiple regression lines would appear if drawn independently. The indicator integrates these into one unified geometric model — eliminating the need to plot tens of regression lines manually. It’s a conceptual tool to help visualize the internal logic: the synthesis of many small-scale regressions into a single coherent structure.
7. Interpretive Insight
This model is not a prediction tool; it’s an instrument of mathematical observation. By translating price dynamics into a prime-structured correlation space, it reveals how coherence unfolds through time — not as a forecast, but as a measurable evolution of structure.
It unifies three analytical domains:
- Prime distribution — defines a nonlinear temporal architecture.
- Pearson correlation — quantifies statistical cohesion.
- Cumulative delta — expresses behavioral imbalance in order flow.
The synthesis creates a geometric analysis of liquidity and time — where structure meets energy, and where the invisible rhythm of market flow becomes measurable.
8. Contribution & Feedback
Share your observations in the comments:
- The time gap and alternation between R+ and R− clusters.
- How different timeframes change delta sensitivity or reveal compression/expansion.
- Prime intervals/clusters that tend to sit near turning points or liquidity shifts.
- How avgR behaves across assets or regimes (trending, ranging, high-vol).
- Notable interactions with the parallel bands (touches, breaks, mean-revert).
Your field notes help others read the model more effectively and compare contexts.
Summary
- Primes define the structure.
- Pearson quantifies coherence.
- Slope median stabilizes geometry.
- Regression bands visualize deviation.
- Cumulative delta locates imbalance.
Together, they construct a framework where mathematics meets market behavior.
Elliott Wave (𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐄𝐋 𝐂𝐈𝐓𝐘 𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐒)This indicator provides a rules-based helper for visually identifying potential Elliott Wave patterns — including 1–5 impulse structures and optional A–B–C corrective moves. It automatically detects pivot highs/lows using the user-defined left/right swing settings and connects them with a ZigZag line filtered by either ATR or percentage change to reduce market noise.
When a valid 5-wave impulse structure is found (either bullish or bearish), the indicator labels waves 1–5 on the chart. After completion of the fifth wave, it optionally monitors for an A–B–C corrective pattern and labels those points when detected. Alerts are generated when an impulse or correction is confirmed.
Features
✅ Automatic pivot detection using configurable left/right swing bars.
✅ ATR or %-based swing filter to avoid small fluctuations.
✅ ZigZag plotting to visualize price structure.
✅ Automatic labeling of potential Elliott impulse waves (1–5).
✅ Optional A–B–C correction detection after wave 5.
✅ Alerts when impulses and corrections complete.
✅ Customizable visuals (colors, sensitivity, pivot length).
✅ Works on all symbols and timeframes.
Usage Tips
For best results, use larger timeframes (e.g., 1H–1D) where Elliott structures are cleaner.
Adjust Pivot Left/Right and ATR Multiplier for your chart’s volatility.
Remember: Elliott Wave theory is interpretive — this tool provides objective swing logic to assist manual analysis, not a guaranteed automatic wave count.

Scalper Pro Pattern Recognition & Price Action OVERVIEW
Scalper Pro is a comprehensive multi-timeframe trading indicator that combines Smart Money Concepts (SMC) with traditional technical analysis to provide scalpers and day traders with high-probability entry and exit signals. This indicator integrates multiple analytical frameworks into a unified visual system designed specifically for short-term trading strategies.
ORIGINALITY & PURPOSE
What Makes This Script Original
This script is not a simple mashup of existing indicators. Instead, it represents a carefully orchestrated integration of complementary analytical methods that work together to solve a specific problem: identifying high-probability scalping opportunities in volatile markets.
The unique value proposition:
Adaptive Trend Filtering System - Combines a customized SuperTrend algorithm with dual-period range filters (Cirrus Cloud) and Hull Moving Average trend cloud to create a three-layer trend confirmation system
Smart Money Concepts Integration - Incorporates institutional trading concepts (Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, Break of Structure) with retail technical indicators for a complete market structure view
Dynamic Risk Management - Automatically calculates stop-loss and take-profit levels based on ATR volatility, providing objective position sizing
ADX-Based Market Regime Detection - Identifies ranging vs. trending markets through ADX analysis with visual bar coloring to prevent whipsaws during consolidation
Why Combine These Specific Components
Each component addresses a specific weakness in scalping:
SuperTrend provides the primary directional bias but can generate false signals in ranging markets
Range Filters smooth out noise and confirm trend direction, reducing SuperTrend false positives
ADX Analysis prevents trading during low-volatility consolidation when most indicators fail
SMC Elements identify institutional activity zones where price is likely to react strongly
ATR-Based Risk Management adapts position sizing to current volatility conditions
The synergy creates a system where signals are only generated when multiple confirmation layers align, significantly reducing false signals common in single-indicator approaches.
HOW IT WORKS
Core Calculation Methodology
1. SuperTrend Signal Generation
The script uses a modified SuperTrend algorithm with the following calculation:
ATR = Average True Range (default: 10 periods)
Factor = 7 (default sensitivity multiplier)
Upper Band = Source + (Factor × ATR)
Lower Band = Source - (Factor × ATR)
Directional Logic:
When price crosses above SuperTrend → Bullish signal
When price crosses below SuperTrend → Bearish signal
SuperTrend value is plotted as dynamic support/resistance
Key Modification: The sensitivity parameter (nsensitivity * 7) allows users to adjust the aggressiveness of trend detection without changing the core ATR calculation.
2. Range Filter System (Cirrus Cloud)
The Range Filter uses a smoothed range calculation to filter out market noise:
Smooth Range Calculation:
WPER = (Period × 2) - 1
AVRNG = EMA(|Price - Price |, Period)
Smooth Range = EMA(AVRNG, WPER) × Multiplier
Two-Layer System:
Layer 1: 22-period with 6x multiplier (broader trend)
Layer 2: 15-period with 5x multiplier (tighter price action)
Visual Output: The space between these two filters is colored:
Green fill = Bullish trend (Layer 1 > Layer 2)
Red fill = Bearish trend (Layer 1 < Layer 2)
This creates a "cloud" that expands during strong trends and contracts during consolidation.
3. ADX Market Regime Detection
Calculation:
+DM = Positive Directional Movement
-DM = Negative Directional Movement
True Range = RMA of True Range (15 periods)
+DI = 100 × RMA(+DM, 15) / True Range
-DI = 100 × RMA(-DM, 15) / True Range
ADX = 100 × RMA(|+DI - -DI| / (+DI + -DI), 15)
Threshold System:
ADX < Threshold (default 15) = Ranging market → Bar color changes to purple
ADX > Threshold = Trending market → Normal bar coloring applies
Purpose: This prevents taking trend-following signals during sideways markets where most indicators produce whipsaws.
4. Smart Money Concepts (SMC) Integration
Order Blocks (OB):
Identified using swing high/low detection with customizable pivot length
Bullish OB: Last down-close candle before bullish Break of Structure (BOS)
Bearish OB: Last up-close candle before bearish BOS
Extended forward until price breaks through them
Fair Value Gaps (FVG):
Detected when a three-candle gap exists:
Bullish FVG: Low > High
Bearish FVG: High < Low
Filtered by price delta percentage to ensure significant gaps
Displayed as boxes that delete when price fills the gap
Break of Structure (BOS) vs. Change of Character (CHoCH):
BOS = Price breaks the previous structural high/low in the current trend direction
CHoCH = Price breaks structure in the opposite direction (potential trend reversal)
Both internal (minor) and swing (major) structures are tracked
Equal Highs/Lows (EQH/EQL):
Detected when consecutive swing highs/lows are within ATR threshold
Often indicates liquidity pools that price may sweep before reversing
5. ATR-Based Risk Management
Calculation:
ATR Band = ATR(14) × Risk Multiplier (default 3%)
Stop Loss = Entry - ATR Band (for longs) or Entry + ATR Band (for shorts)
Take Profit Levels:
TP1 = Entry + (Entry - Stop Loss) × 1
TP2 = Entry + (Entry - Stop Loss) × 2
TP3 = Entry + (Entry - Stop Loss) × 3
Dynamic Labels: Stop loss and take profit levels are automatically calculated and displayed as labels on the chart when new signals trigger.
6. Hull Moving Average Trend Cloud
HMA = WMA(2 × WMA(Close, Period/2) - WMA(Close, Period), sqrt(Period))
Period = 600 bars (long-term trend)
The HMA provides a smoothed long-term trend reference that's more responsive than traditional moving averages while filtering out short-term noise.

THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
Trend-Following Concepts
This indicator is based on the principle that markets trend more often than they range, and that trends tend to persist. The SuperTrend component captures this momentum while the range filters prevent premature entries during pullbacks.
Smart Money Theory
The SMC elements are based on the concept that institutional traders (banks, hedge funds) leave footprints in the form of:
Order Blocks: Areas where large orders were placed
Fair Value Gaps: Inefficient price movements that may be revisited
Liquidity Sweeps: Stop hunts before continuation (EQH/EQL)
Volatility-Based Position Sizing
Using ATR for stop-loss placement ensures that stop distances adapt to current market conditions:
Tight stops in low volatility (avoids excessive risk)
Wider stops in high volatility (avoids premature stop-outs)
PERFORMANCE EXPECTATIONS
Realistic Expectations
Win Rate:
Expected: 45-55% (trend-following systems rarely exceed 60%)
Higher win rates on trending days
Lower win rates during consolidation (even with ADX filter)
Risk-Reward Ratio:
Target: 1.5:1 minimum (TP2)
Achievable: 2:1 to 3:1 on strong trends
Drawdowns:
Normal: 10-15% of account during choppy periods
Maximum: Should not exceed 20% with proper risk management
Optimization Tips
Backtesting Recommendations:
Test on at least 1 year of historical data
Include different market conditions (trending, ranging, volatile)
Adjust SuperTrend sensitivity per instrument
Optimize ADX threshold for your specific market
Record trades to identify personal execution errors
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Can I use this for automated trading?
A: The indicator provides signals, but you'll need to code a strategy script separately for automation. The signals can trigger alerts that connect to trading bots.
Q: Why do I see conflicting signals?
A: This is normal during transition periods. Wait for all confirmation layers to align before entering.
Q: How often should I expect signals?
A: Depends on timeframe and market conditions. On 5m charts during trending markets: 3-7 quality setups per session.
Q: Can I use only some features?
A: Yes, all components can be toggled on/off. However, the system works best with all confirmations active.
Q: What's the difference between internal and swing structures?
A: Internal = minor price structures (smaller pivots). Swing = major price structures (larger pivots). Both provide different levels of confirmation.

SuperTrend MAAfter building SuperBands, I kept thinking about what happens at the midpoint between those two volatility-adaptive envelopes. The upper and lower bands are both trailing price based on ATR and EMA smoothing, but they're operating independently in opposite directions. Taking their average seemed like it might produce an interesting centerline that adapts to volatility in a way that regular moving averages don't. Turns out it does, and that's what this indicator is.
The core concept is straightforward. Instead of plotting the upper and lower SuperBands separately, this calculates both of them internally, averages their values, and then applies an additional smoothing pass with EMA to create a single centerline. That centerline sits roughly in the middle of where the bands would be, but because it's derived from ATR-offset trailing stops rather than direct price smoothing, it behaves differently than a standard moving average of the same length. During trending periods, the centerline tracks closer to price because one of the underlying bands is actively trailing while the other is dormant. During consolidation, both bands compress toward price and the centerline tends to oscillate more with shorter-term movements.
What's interesting is that this acts like a supertrend all by itself with directional behavior baked in. When one of the underlying supertrend waves dominates, meaning price is strongly trending in one direction and only one band is active, you get what feels like a "true" supertrend, whatever that means exactly. The centerline locks into trend-following mode and the color gradient reflects that commitment. You get bright bullish colors during sustained uptrends when the upper band is doing all the work, and strong bearish colors during downtrends when the lower band dominates. But when both bands are active and fighting for control, which happens during consolidation or choppy conditions, the centerline settles into more neutral tones that clearly signal you're in a ranging environment. The colors really do emphasize this behavior and make it visually obvious which regime you're in.
The smoothing parameter controls how aggressively the underlying SuperBand trails adapt to price, which indirectly affects how responsive the centerline is. Lower values make the bands tighter and more reactive, so the centerline follows price action more closely. Higher values create wider bands that only respond to sustained moves, which produces a smoother centerline that filters out more noise. The center smoothing parameter applies a second EMA pass specifically to the averaged midpoint, giving you independent control over how much additional lag you want on the final output versus the raw band average.
What makes this different from just slapping an EMA on price is that the underlying bands are already volatility-aware through their ATR calculations. When volatility spikes, the bands widen and the centerline adjusts its position relative to price based on where those bands settle. A traditional moving average would just smooth over the volatility spike without adjusting its distance from price. This approach incorporates volatility information into the centerline's positioning, which can help it stay relevant during regime changes where fixed-period moving averages tend to lag badly or whipsaw.
The color gradient adds a momentum overlay using the same angle-based calculation from SuperBands. The centerline's rate of change gets normalized by an RMS estimate of its historical movement range, converted to an angle through arctangent scaling, and then mapped to a color gradient. When the centerline is rising, it gradients from neutral toward your chosen bullish color, with brightness increasing as the rate of ascent steepens. When falling, it shifts toward the bearish color with intensity tied to the descent rate. This gives you an immediate visual sense of whether the centerline is accelerating, decelerating, or moving at a stable pace.
Configuration is simpler than SuperBands since you're only dealing with a single output line instead of separate bull and bear envelopes. The length parameter controls the underlying band behavior. ATR period and multiplier determine how much space the bands allocate around price before they trail. Center smoothing adds the extra EMA pass on the averaged midpoint. You can tune these independently to get different characteristics. A tight ATR multiplier with heavy center smoothing creates a smooth line that stays close to price. A wide multiplier with light center smoothing produces a line that swings more freely and adapts faster to directional changes.
From a practical standpoint, this works well as a trend filter or dynamic support and resistance reference. Price above the centerline with bullish coloring suggests a favorable environment for long positions. Price below with bearish coloring indicates the opposite. Crossovers can signal trend changes, though like any moving average system, you'll get whipsaws in choppy conditions. The advantage over traditional MAs is that the volatility adaptation tends to reduce false signals during transitional periods where volatility is expanding but direction hasn't fully committed.
The implementation reuses the entire SuperBands logic, which means all the smoothing and state management for the trailing stops is identical. The only addition is averaging the two band outputs and applying the final EMA pass. The color calculation follows the same RMS-normalized angle approach but applies it to the centerline's delta rather than the individual band deltas. This keeps the coloring consistent with how SuperBands handles momentum visualization while adapting it to a single line instead of dual envelopes.
What this really highlights is that you can derive moving averages from mechanisms other than direct price smoothing. By building the centerline from volatility-adjusted trailing stops, you get adaptive behavior that responds to both price movement and volatility regime without needing separate inputs or complex multi-stage calculations. Whether that adaptation provides a meaningful edge depends on your strategy and market, but it's a fundamentally different approach than the typical fixed-period or adaptive MAs that adjust length based on volatility or momentum indicators.
Luxy Adaptive MA Cloud - Trend Strength & Signal Tracker V2Luxy Adaptive MA Cloud - Professional Trend Strength & Signal Tracker
Next-generation moving average cloud indicator combining ultra-smooth gradient visualization with intelligent momentum detection. Built for traders who demand clarity, precision, and actionable insights.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
WHAT MAKES THIS INDICATOR SPECIAL?
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
Unlike traditional MA indicators that show static lines, Luxy Adaptive MA Cloud creates a living, breathing visualization of market momentum. Here's what sets it apart:
Exponential Gradient Technology
This isn't just a simple fill between two lines. It's a professionally engineered gradient system with 26 precision layers using exponential density distribution. The result? An organic, cloud-like appearance where the center is dramatically darker (15% transparency - where crossovers and price action occur), while edges fade gracefully (75% transparency). Think of it as a visual "heat map" of trend strength.
Dynamic Momentum Intelligence
Most MA clouds only show structure (which MA is on top). This indicator shows momentum strength in real-time through four intelligent states:
- 🟢 Bright Green = Explosive bullish momentum (both MAs rising strongly)
- 🔵 Blue = Weakening bullish (structure intact, but momentum fading)
- 🟠 Orange = Caution zone (bearish structure forming, weak momentum)
- 🔴 Deep Red = Strong bearish momentum (both MAs falling)
The cloud literally tells you when trends are accelerating or losing steam.
Conditional Performance Architecture
Every calculation is optimized for speed. Disable a feature? It stops calculating entirely—not just hidden, but not computed . The 26-layer gradient only renders when enabled. Toggle signals off? Those crossover checks don't run. This makes it one of the most efficient cloud indicators available, even with its advanced visual system.
Zero Repaint Guarantee
All signals and momentum states are based on confirmed bar data only . What you see in historical data is exactly what you would have seen trading live. No lookahead bias. No repainting tricks. No signals that "magically" appear perfect in hindsight. If a signal shows in history, it would have triggered in real-time at that exact moment.
Educational by Design
Every single input includes comprehensive tooltips with:
- Clear explanations of what each parameter does
- Practical examples of when to use different settings
- Recommended configurations for scalping, day trading, and swing trading
- Real-world trading impact ("This affects entry timing" vs "This is visual only")
You're not just getting an indicator—you're learning how to use it effectively .

HOW TO USE - PRACTICAL TRADING GUIDE
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
STRATEGY 1: Trend Following
Identify trend : Wait for GREEN (bullish) or RED (bearish) cloud
Enter on signal : Golden Cross in GREEN cloud = LONG, Death Cross in RED cloud = SHORT
Hold position : While cloud maintains color
Exit signals :
• Cloud turns ORANGE/BLUE = momentum weakening, tighten stops
• Opposite crossover = close position
• Cloud turns opposite color = full reversal
STRATEGY 2: Pullback Entries
Confirm trend : GREEN cloud established (bullish bias)
Wait for pullback : Price touches or crosses below Fast MA
Enter when : Price rebounds back above Fast MA with cloud still GREEN
Stop loss : Below Medium MA or recent swing low
Target : Previous high or when cloud weakens
STRATEGY 3: Momentum Confirmation
Your setup triggers : (e.g., chart pattern, support/resistance)
Check cloud color :
• GREEN = proceed with LONG
• RED = proceed with SHORT
• BLUE/ORANGE = skip or reduce size
Use gradient as confluence : Not as primary signal, but as momentum filter
Risk Management Tips:
Never enter against the cloud color (don't LONG in RED cloud)
Reduce position size during BLUE/ORANGE (transition periods)
Place stops beyond Medium MA for swing trades
Use Slow MA (200) as final trend filter - don't SHORT above it in uptrends

ATR-Normalized MACD w/ Visual BackgroundChatGPT said:
Absolutely! Let’s break down the YON MACD indicator in detail so you understand what it does, how it works, and how to use it.
1. Purpose
The YON MACD is a volatility-adjusted version of the classic MACD. Instead of just using EMA differences, it normalizes the MACD by the Average True Range (ATR), which means:
High-volatility markets → the MACD signal is scaled down.
Low-volatility markets → the MACD signal is scaled up.
This gives a more consistent momentum signal across different market conditions, avoiding false spikes during high volatility.
2. Components
a. Fast and Slow EMAs
fastEMA → Typically 12-period EMA of price.
slowEMA → Typically 26-period EMA of price.
The difference between them measures short-term momentum.
b. ATR Normalization
atr → Average True Range over a specified period (default 26).
Formula:
YON MACD=fastEMA - slowEMAATR×100
YON MACD=
ATR
fastEMA - slowEMA
×100
This adjusts the MACD for market volatility.
c. Signal Line
EMA of the YON MACD (default 9 periods).
Acts like a trigger line for crossovers.
d. Histogram
hist = YON MACD - Signal Line
Visualizes divergence: how far the MACD is from the signal line.
Positive histogram → bullish momentum, negative → bearish momentum.
3. Visual Features
Plot Lines
YON MACD → colored green (rising), red (falling), gray (unchanged).
Signal line → always blue.
Histogram → columns: green (positive), red (negative).
Background Coloring
Green → MACD rising + histogram positive (bullish momentum).
Red → MACD falling + histogram negative (bearish momentum).
Yellow/Orange → histogram flips (early momentum change).
This makes trend and momentum immediately visible without having to study the panel in detail.
4. Alerts
MACD Cross Alerts
YON MACD crosses above the signal → potential buy.
YON MACD crosses below the signal → potential sell.
Histogram Flip Alerts
Histogram flips from negative → positive → early bullish signal.
Histogram flips from positive → negative → early bearish signal.
This allows automation or notifications for momentum changes.
5. How to Use
Trend Confirmation
Green background + MACD above signal → trend is bullish.
Red background + MACD below signal → trend is bearish.
Entry/Exit Signals
Buy: MACD crosses above signal or histogram flips positive.
Sell: MACD crosses below signal or histogram flips negative.
Volatility Adjustment
Since the MACD is ATR-normalized, it avoids overreacting in volatile conditions and highlights true momentum shifts.
Summary
The YON MACD is a trend-following and momentum indicator with:
Volatility normalization (ATR)
MACD cross signals
Histogram divergence visualization
Background colors for instant momentum reading
Alerts for crossovers and early momentum flips
It’s a powerful all-in-one momentum tool that can work for day trading, swing trading, or even longer-term analysis.
Multi-Timeframe SFP (Swing Failure Pattern)How to Use
1. Set Pivot Timeframe: Choose the timeframe for identifying major swing points (e.g., 'D' for Daily pivots).
2. Set SFP Timeframe: Choose the timeframe to find the SFP candle (e.g., '240' for the 4-Hour chart).
3. Set Confirmation Bars: Set how many SFP Timeframe bars must pass without invalidating the level. A value of '0' confirms immediately on the SFP bar's close. A value of '1' waits for one more bar to close.
4. Adjust Filters (Optional): Enable the 'Wick % Filter' to add a quality check for strong rejections.
5. Watch & Wait: The indicator will draw lines and labels and fire alerts for fully confirmed signals.
In-Depth Explanation
1. Overview
The Dynamic Pivot SFP Engine is a multi-timeframe tool designed to identify and validate Swing Failure Patterns (SFPs) at significant price levels.
An SFP is a common price action pattern where price briefly trades beyond a previous swing high or low (sweeping liquidity) but then fails to hold those new prices, closing back inside the previous range. This "failure" often signals a reversal.
This indicator enhances SFP detection by separating the Pivot (Liquidity) from the SFP (Rejection), allowing you to monitor them on different timeframes.
2. The Core Multi-Timeframe Logic
The indicator's power comes from two key inputs:
• Pivot Timeframe (Pivot Timeframe)
This is the "high timeframe" used to establish significant support and resistance levels. The script finds standard pivots (swing highs and lows) on this timeframe based on the Pivot Left Strength and Pivot Right Strength inputs. These pivots are the "liquidity" levels the SFP will target. The Pivot Lookback input controls how long (in Pivot Timeframe bars) a pivot remains active and monitored.
• SFP Timeframe (SFP Timeframe)
This is the "execution timeframe" where the script looks for the actual SFP. On every new bar of this timeframe, the script checks if price has swept and rejected any of the active pivots.
Example Setup:
You might set Pivot Timeframe to 'D' (Daily) to find major daily swing points. You then set SFP Timeframe to '240' (4-Hour) to find a 4-hour candle that sweeps a daily pivot and closes back below/above it.
3. The SFP Confirmation Process
An SFP is not confirmed instantly. It must pass a rigorous, multi-step validation process.
Step 1: The SFP Candle (The Sweep)
A potential SFP is identified when an SFP Timeframe bar does the following:
• Bearish SFP: The bar's high trades above an active pivot high, but the bar closes below that same pivot high.
• Bullish SFP: The bar's low trades below an active pivot low, but the bar closes above that same pivot low.
Step 2: The Wick Filter (Optional Quality Check)
If Enable Wick % Filter is checked, the SFP candle from Step 1 is also measured.
• For a bearish SFP, the upper wick (from the high to the open/close) must be at least Min. Wick % of the entire candle's range (high-to-low).
• For a bullish SFP, the lower wick (from the low to the open/close) must meet the same percentage requirement.
If the SFP candle fails this test, it is discarded, even if it met the sweep/close criteria.
Step 3: The Validation Window (The Confirmation)
This is the most critical feature, controlled by Confirmation Bars.
• If Confirmation Bars = 0: The SFP is confirmed immediately on the SFP candle's close (assuming it passed the optional wick check). The label, line, and alert are triggered at this moment.
• If Confirmation Bars > 0: The SFP enters a "pending" state. The script will wait for $N$ more SFP Timeframe bars to close.
o Invalidation: If, during this waiting period, any bar closes back across the pivot (e.g., a close above the pivot for a bearish SFP), the SFP is considered failed and invalidated. All pending plots are deleted.
o Confirmation: If the $N$ confirmation bars all complete without invalidating the level, the SFP is finally confirmed. The label, line, and alert are only triggered after this entire process is complete. This adds a significant layer of robustness, ensuring the rejection holds for a period of time.
4. Visuals & Alerts
• Lines: A horizontal line is drawn from the original pivot to the SFP bar, showing which level was targeted. Note: These lines will only be drawn on chart timeframes equal to or lower than the 'SFP Timeframe'.
• Labels: A label is placed at the SFP's extreme (the high/low of the SFP bar). The label text conveniently includes the Ticker, Pivot TF, SFP TF, and Confirmation bar settings (e.g., "Bearish SFP BTCUSD / Pivot: 1D / SFP: 4H | Conf: 1").
• MTF Boxes (Show SFP Box, Show Conf. Boxes): These boxes highlight the SFP and confirmation bars. Crucially, they are only visible when your chart timeframe is lower than the SFP Timeframe. For example, if your SFP Timeframe is '240' (4H), you will only see these boxes on the 1H, 15M, 5M, etc., charts. This allows you to see the higher-timeframe SFP unfolding on your lower-timeframe chart.
• Alerts (Enable Alerts): An alert is fired only when an SFP is fully confirmed (i.e., after the Confirmation Bars have passed successfully). For efficient, real-time monitoring, it is highly recommended to run this indicator server-side by creating an alert on TradingView set to trigger on "Any alert() function call".
ZS Game Changer Pump & Dump DetectorZS GAME CHANGER PUMP AND DUMP DETECTOR - TOP 2 MOMENTUM TRACKER
Created by Zakaria Safri
An intelligent indicator specifically designed to identify and highlight the two most significant pump and dump candles within your selected lookback period. Perfect for traders who want to focus on the game-changing moves that truly matter in volatile markets like cryptocurrency, stocks, and forex.
CORE FEATURES
AUTOMATIC GAME CHANGER DETECTION
The indicator continuously scans your specified lookback period and automatically identifies the top 2 strongest pump candles and top 2 strongest dump candles. These game-changing candles are highlighted with distinctive gold labels and horizontal reference lines, making them instantly visible on your chart. Unlike other indicators that show every small move, this focuses exclusively on the market-moving moments that define trends and create opportunities.
INTELLIGENT PUMP AND DUMP CLASSIFICATION
Uses advanced percentage-based calculations to classify candles as pumps when price surges significantly upward and dumps when price plunges sharply downward. The detection system accounts for candle body size, wick proportions, and volume confirmation to ensure only legitimate momentum moves trigger signals. Customizable thresholds allow adaptation to any market volatility profile from calm stocks to wild altcoins.
ADVANCED WICK EXCLUSION FILTER
Eliminates false signals caused by candles with large wicks and small bodies. This filter focuses analysis exclusively on candles with substantial body sizes that indicate genuine directional conviction rather than temporary spikes followed by rejection. The body to candle ratio is fully adjustable to match your preferred signal quality standards.
VOLUME CONFIRMATION SYSTEM
Optional volume filter ensures detected pumps and dumps are backed by real market participation. The indicator compares current volume against a moving average and only triggers signals when volume exceeds your specified multiplier threshold. This eliminates low-volume noise and focuses on moves supported by institutional or crowd participation.
RALLY SEQUENCE DETECTION
Identifies and highlights consecutive sequences of pump or dump candles with colored background overlays. Green background indicates sustained buying pressure across multiple candles while red background shows sustained selling pressure. The rally detection system includes an optional one-miss allowance that prevents the sequence from breaking due to a single neutral candle.
HORIZONTAL REFERENCE LINES
Draws dashed lines from each game changer candle extending to the current bar, providing constant visual reference to the most significant support and resistance levels created by extreme momentum. The top game changer gets a thick dashed line while the second gets a dotted line for easy differentiation. Labels on the right side display the exact percentage move.
COMPREHENSIVE STATISTICS DASHBOARD
Real-time information panel showing current market status as pumping, dumping, or neutral along with the current candle percentage change. Displays the exact percentage values for top pump number 1, top pump number 2, top dump number 1, and top dump number 2. Shows running totals of all pumps and dumps detected since chart load. Tracks consecutive candle counts during active rally sequences.
TESTING AND VERIFICATION MODE
Built-in debug mode displays percentage change directly on each qualifying pump and dump candle, allowing instant verification that calculations are accurate. Shows which filters are currently active with a simple code in the dashboard. Helps traders understand exactly why certain candles qualified as game changers.
HOW THE GAME CHANGER DETECTION WORKS
SCANNING ALGORITHM
Every bar close, the indicator scans backward through your specified lookback period examining every candle's percentage change from its previous close. For bullish moves, it identifies the two candles with the largest positive percentage change that meet your threshold requirements. For bearish moves, it identifies the two candles with the largest negative percentage change meeting threshold requirements.
RANKING SYSTEM
Candles are ranked purely by their percentage move magnitude. The number 1 game changer is always the single strongest move in the lookback period. The number 2 game changer is the second strongest move. Rankings update dynamically as new candles form and old candles exit the lookback window.
VISUAL IDENTIFICATION
Game changer number 1 for both pumps and dumps receives a large gold label reading GAME CHANGER NUMBER 1 with zero transparency for maximum visibility. Game changer number 2 receives a slightly smaller gold label with partial transparency. The candle bars themselves are colored in gold instead of the standard green or red. Horizontal lines extend from the game changer price level to current bar.
FILTER APPLICATION
Only candles that pass your configured filters qualify for game changer consideration. If wick exclusion is enabled, candles with large wicks and small bodies are ignored. If volume confirmation is enabled, only candles with above-average volume qualify. This ensures game changers represent legitimate market moves rather than aberrations.
PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
FOR CRYPTOCURRENCY TRADERS
Crypto markets experience extreme volatility with occasional massive pump and dump candles that define entire trends. This indicator instantly identifies which candles represent true market structure shifts versus normal noise. Use the game changer levels as key support and resistance for entries, exits, and stop placement. The top pump often marks the local high to watch for breakouts while the top dump marks the local low for reversal trades.
FOR DAY TRADERS
Intraday charts contain hundreds of candles but only a few truly matter for the session outcome. Game changer detection filters out 98 percent of candles to show you the 2 percent that drove the actual price movement. Enter trades on the side of the strongest recent game changer. Use game changer levels as magnet prices where algorithmic trading often returns.
FOR SWING TRADERS
On daily and four-hour timeframes, game changers represent major institutional activity or news-driven moves. The top dump often marks capitulation selling that creates reversal opportunities. The top pump often marks FOMO buying that creates resistance levels. Swing traders can build positions knowing these levels will be defended or tested multiple times.
FOR VOLATILITY ANALYSIS
Understanding which candles created the most volatility helps assess market risk. Multiple game changers clustered together indicate unstable choppy conditions. Game changers separated by many neutral candles indicate trending stable conditions. Use this context to adjust position sizing and stop distances appropriately.
FOR SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE TRADING
Game changer candles create the strongest support and resistance levels because they represent prices where massive volume transacted in short time periods. These levels have higher probability of holding on retest compared to arbitrary moving averages or pivot points. Trade bounces off game changer levels or breakouts through them.

UNDERSTANDING GAME CHANGERS
WHAT MAKES A CANDLE A GAME CHANGER
A game changer is not just a large move but the largest move within context. In a volatile crypto market, a 5 percent pump might not rank in the top 2. In a stable stock, a 2 percent pump could be the number 1 game changer. The indicator adapts to your specific instrument and timeframe to find what truly matters in that context.
WHY FOCUS ON TOP 2 ONLY
Markets are driven by a small number of significant moves rather than the average of all moves. By focusing exclusively on the top 2 in each direction, traders can ignore noise and concentrate on the price levels that actually matter for support, resistance, and momentum. This creates clarity in decision making.
GAME CHANGERS AS MARKET STRUCTURE
The top pump often marks the recent high that bulls must break to continue uptrend. The top dump often marks the recent low that bears must break to continue downtrend. These become the key levels around which all other price action rotates. Understanding this structure is essential for profitable trading.
GAME CHANGERS AS SENTIMENT INDICATORS
Consecutive pump game changers signal strong bullish sentiment and FOMO conditions. Consecutive dump game changers signal fear and capitulation. Alternating pump and dump game changers signal indecision and range conditions. Read the pattern of game changers to gauge market psychology.
VERIFICATION AND TESTING
HOW TO VERIFY ACCURACY
Enable Show Debug Info on Chart in the Testing and Debug settings group. This displays the percentage change calculation directly on every qualifying pump and dump candle. Manually verify by calculating open minus close divided by close multiplied by 100. The debug percentage should match your manual calculation exactly.
HOW TO TEST FILTERS
Toggle wick exclusion filter on and off while watching how many candles qualify. With filter on, candles with long wicks and small bodies should disappear. Toggle volume confirmation on and off to see how low-volume candles get excluded. Adjust the thresholds and watch the real-time impact on signal count.
HOW TO VERIFY GAME CHANGERS
Look at your chart and visually identify which candle had the biggest green body in the lookback period. The game changer number 1 pump label should be on that exact candle. Repeat for the biggest red candle to verify game changer number 1 dump. The rankings should match your visual assessment.
LOOKBACK PERIOD EFFECTS
Decrease the lookback period to 20 bars and watch game changers update to only recent moves. Increase to 500 bars and watch game changers potentially change to older historic moves. The optimal lookback balances recency with significance. Too short misses important levels, too long includes irrelevant history.
DASHBOARD INFORMATION GUIDE
STATUS ROW
Shows PUMPING when current candle qualifies as a pump, DUMPING when current candle qualifies as a dump, or NEUTRAL when current candle does not meet threshold requirements. This updates in real-time on every bar close.
CURRENT CHANGE ROW
Displays the percentage change of the current candle from its previous close. Positive percentages indicate bullish candle, negative indicate bearish candle. This number may or may not meet your threshold to qualify as pump or dump.

PRO Scalper(EN)
## What it is
**PRO Scalper** is an intraday price–action and liquidity map that helps you see where the market is likely to move **now**, not just where it has been.
It combines five building blocks that professional scalpers often watch together:
1. **Session Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP)** — the intraday “fair value” anchor.
2. **Opening Range** — the first minutes of the session that set the day’s balance.
3. **Trend filter** — higher-timeframe bias using **Exponential Moving Averages (EMA)** and optional **Average Directional Index (ADX)** strength.
4. **Two independent Supply/Demand zone engines** — zones are drawn from confirmed swing pivots, with midlines and **touch counters**.
5. **Order-flow style visuals**:
* **Delta bubbles** (green/red circles) show where buying or selling pressure was unusually strong, using a safe **delta proxy** (no external feeds).
* **Liquidity densities** (subtle rectangular bands) highlight clusters of large activity that often act as magnets or barriers and disappear when “eaten” by strong moves.
This mix gives you a **complete intraday picture**: the mean (VWAP), the day’s initial balance (Opening Range), the higher-timeframe push (trend filter), the nearby fuel or brakes (zones), and the live pressure points (bubbles and densities).
---
## Why these components
* **VWAP** tracks where the bulk of traded value sits. Price tends to rotate around it or accelerate away from it — a perfect compass for scalps.
* **Opening Range** frames the early auction. Many intraday breaks, fades and retests start at its boundaries.
* **EMA bias + ADX strength** separates trending conditions from chop, so you can keep only the zones that agree with the bigger push.
* **Pivot-based zones (two pairs at once)** are simple, objective and fast. Midlines help with confirmations; touch counters quantify how many times the zone was tested.
* **Bubbles and densities** add the “effort” layer: where the push appeared and where liquidity is concentrated. You see **where** a move is likely to continue or fail.
Together they reduce ambiguity: **context + level + effort** — all on one screen.
---
## How it works (plain language)
* **VWAP** resets each day and is calculated as the cumulative sum of typical price multiplied by volume divided by total volume.
* **Opening Range** is either automatic (a multiple of your chart timeframe) or a manual number of minutes. While it is forming, the highest high and lowest low are captured and plotted as the range.
* **Trend filter**
* **EMA Fast** and **EMA Slow** define directional bias.
* **ADX (optional)** adds “trend strength”: only when the Average Directional Index is above the chosen threshold do we treat the move as strong. You can source this from a higher timeframe.
* **Zones**
* There are **two independent pairs** of pivots at the same time (for example 10-left 10-right and 5-left 5-right).
* Each detected pivot creates a **Supply** (from a swing high) or **Demand** (from a swing low) box. Box depth = **zone depth × Average True Range** for adaptive sizing; the boxes **extend forward**.
* Midline (optional dashed line inside the box) is the “balance” of the zone.
* **“Only in trend”** mode can hide boxes that go against the higher-timeframe bias.
* The **touch counter** increases when price revisits the box. Labels show the pair name and the number of touches.
* **Bubbles**
* A safe **delta proxy** measures bar pressure (for example, range-weighted close vs open).
* A **quantile filter** shows only unusually large pressure: choose lookback and percentile, and the script draws a circle sized by intensity (green = bullish pressure, red = bearish).
* **Densities**
* The script marks heavy activity clusters as **subtle bands** around price (depth = fraction of Average True Range).
* If price **breaks** a density with volume above its moving average, the band **disappears** (“eaten”), which often precedes continuation.
---
## How to use — practical playbooks
> Recommended chart: crypto or index futures, one to five minutes. Use **one hour** or **fifteen minutes** for the higher-timeframe bias.
### 1) Trend pullback scalp (continuation)
1. Enable **Only in trend** zones.
2. In an uptrend: wait for a pullback into a **Demand** zone that overlaps with VWAP or sits just below the Opening Range midpoint.
3. Look for **green bubbles** near the zone’s bottom or a fresh **density** under price.
4. Enter on a candle closing **back above the zone midline**.
5. Stop-loss: below the bottom of the zone or a small multiple of Average True Range.
6. Targets: previous swing high, Opening Range high, fixed risk multiples, or VWAP.
Mirror the logic for downtrends using Supply zones, red bubbles and densities above price.
### 2) Reversion with liquidity sweep (fade)
1. Bias neutral or countertrend allowed.
2. Price **wicks through** a zone boundary (or an Opening Range line) and **closes back inside** the zone.
3. The bubble color often flips (absorption).
4. Enter toward the **inside** of the zone; stop beyond the sweep wick; first target = zone midline, second = opposite side of the zone or VWAP.
### 3) Opening Range break and retest
1. Wait for the Opening Range to complete.
2. A break with a large bubble suggests intent.
3. Look for a **retest** into a nearby zone aligned with VWAP.
4. Trade continuation toward the next zone or the session extremes.
### 4) Density “eaten” continuation
1. When a density band **disappears** on high volume, it often means the resting liquidity was consumed.
2. Trade in the direction of the break, toward the nearest opposing zone.

## Tips and risk management
* This script **does not use external order-flow feeds**. Delta is a **proxy** suitable for TradingView; tune quantiles per symbol and timeframe.
* Do not trade every bubble. Combine **context (trend + VWAP + Opening Range)** with **level (zone)** and **effort (bubble/density)**.
* Set stop-losses beyond the zone or at a fraction of Average True Range. Predefine risk per trade.
* Backtest your rules with a strategy script before using real funds.
* Markets differ. Parameters that work on Bitcoin may not transfer to low-liquidity altcoins or stocks.
* Nothing here is financial advice. Scalping is high-risk; slippage and over-trading can quickly damage your account.

## Что это такое
**PRO Scalper** — это индикатор для внутридневной торговли, который показывает **контекст и ликвидность прямо сейчас**.
Он объединяет пять модулей, которыми профессиональные скальперы пользуются вместе:
1. **VWAP** — средневзвешенная по объему цена за сессию, «справедливая стоимость» дня.
2. **Opening Range** — первая часть сессии, задающая баланс дня.
3. **Фильтр тренда** — направление старшего таймфрейма по **экспоненциальным средним** и при желании по силе тренда **Average Directional Index**.
4. **Две независимые системы зон спроса/предложения** — зоны строятся от подтвержденных экстремумов (пивотов), имеют **среднюю линию** и **счетчик касаний**.
5. **Визуализация «ордер-флоу»**:
* **Пузыри дельты** (зеленые/красные круги) — места повышенного покупательного/продажного давления, рассчитанные через безопасный **прокси-дельты**.
* **Плотности ликвидности** (ненавязчивые прямоугольные ленты) — скопления объема, которые нередко притягивают цену или удерживают ее и исчезают, когда «разъедаются» сильным движением.
Итог — **полная картинка момента**: среднее (VWAP), баланс дня (Opening Range), старшая сила (фильтр тренда), ближайшие уровни топлива/тормозов (зоны), текущие точки усилия (пузыри и плотности).
---
## Почему именно эти элементы
* **VWAP** показывает, где сосредоточена стоимость; цена либо вращается вокруг него, либо быстро уходит — идеальный ориентир скальпера.
* **Opening Range** фиксирует ранний аукцион — от его границ часто начинаются пробои, возвраты и ретесты.
* **EMA + ADX** отделяют тренд от «пилы», позволяя оставлять на графике только зоны по направлению старшего таймфрейма.
* **Зоны от пивотов** просты, объективны и быстры; средняя линия помогает подтверждать разворот, счетчик касаний переводит субъективность в цифры.
* **Пузыри и плотности** добавляют слой «усилия»: где именно возник толчок и где сконцентрирована ликвидность.
Комбинация **контекста + уровня + усилия** уменьшает двусмысленность и ускоряет принятие решения.
---
## Как это работает (простыми словами)
* **VWAP** каждый день стартует заново: сумма «типичной цены × объем» делится на суммарный объем.
* **Opening Range** — автоматический (кратный минутам вашего таймфрейма) или вручную заданный период; пока он формируется, фиксируются максимум и минимум.
* **Фильтр тренда**
* Две экспоненциальные средние задают направление.
* **ADX** (по желанию) добавляет «силу». Источник можно взять со старшего таймфрейма.
* **Зоны**
* Одновременно работает **две пары** пивотов (например 10-лево 10-право и 5-лево 5-право).
* От пивота строится зона **предложения** (от максимума) или **спроса** (от минимума). Глубина зоны = **коэффициент × Average True Range**; зона тянется вперед.
* Внутри рисуется **средняя линия** (по желанию).
* Режим **«только по тренду»** скрывает зоны против старшего направления.
* **Счетчик касаний** увеличивается, когда цена снова входит в зону; подпись показывает пару и количество касаний.
* **Пузыри**
* Используется безопасный **прокси-дельты** — измерение «напряжения» внутри свечи.
* Через **квантильный фильтр** выводятся только необычно сильные места: настраиваются окно и процент квантиля; размер кружка — сила, цвет: зеленый покупатели, красный продавцы.
* **Плотности**
* Крупные активности отмечаются **ненавязчивыми прямоугольниками** (глубина — доля Average True Range).
* Если плотность **пробивается** объемом выше среднего, она **исчезает** — часто это предвещает продолжение.

## Как пользоваться — практические схемы
> Рекомендация: крипто или фьючерсы, таймфрейм 1–5 минут. Для старшего фильтра удобно взять **1 час** или **15 минут**.
### 1) Скальп на откат по тренду
1. Включите **«только по тренду»**.
2. В восходящем тренде дождитесь отката в **зону спроса**, желательно рядом с **VWAP** или серединой **Opening Range**.
3. Подтверждение — **зеленые пузыри** у нижней границы зоны или свежая **плотность** под ценой.
4. Вход после закрытия свечи **выше средней линии** зоны.
5. Стоп-лосс: за нижнюю границу зоны или небольшой множитель Average True Range.
6. Цели: предыдущий максимум, верх Opening Range, фиксированные R-множители, либо VWAP.
Для нисходящего тренда зеркально: зоны предложения, красные пузыри и плотности над ценой.
### 2) Контрдвижение с «выбиванием ликвидности»
1. Нейтральный или контртрендовый режим.
2. Цена **выносит хвостом** границу зоны (или линию Opening Range) и **закрывается обратно внутри**.
3. Цвет пузыря часто меняется (поглощение).
4. Вход внутрь зоны; стоп — за хвост выбивания; цели: средняя линия, противоположная граница зоны или VWAP.
### 3) Пробой Opening Range + ретест
1. Дождитесь завершения диапазона.
2. Сильный пробой с крупным пузырем — признак намерения.
3. Ищите **ретест** в зоне по тренду рядом с линией диапазона и VWAP.
4. Торгуйте продолжение к следующей зоне.
### 4) Продолжение после «съеденной» плотности
1. Когда прямоугольник плотности **исчезает** на повышенном объеме, это значит, что ликвидность поглощена.
2. Торгуйте в сторону пробоя к ближайшей противоположной зоне.

## Советы и риски
* Индикатор **не использует внешние потоки ордер-флоу**. Дельта — **прокси**, подходящая для TradingView; подбирайте квантили под инструмент и таймфрейм.
* Не торгуйте каждый пузырь. Склейте **контекст (тренд + VWAP + Opening Range)** с **уровнем (зона)** и **усилием (пузырь/плотность)**.
* Стоп-лосс — за границей зоны или по Average True Range. Риск на сделку задавайте заранее.
* Перед реальными деньгами протестируйте правила в стратегии.
* Разные рынки ведут себя по-разному; настройки из Биткоина могут не подойти малоликвидным альткоинам или акциям.
* Это не инвестиционная рекомендация. Скальпинг — высокий риск; проскальзывание и переизбыток сделок быстро наносят ущерб капиталу.

N Order EMAThe exponential moving average is one of the most fundamental tools in technical analysis, but its implementation is almost always locked to a single mathematical approach. I've always wanted to extend the EMA into an n-order filter, and after some time working through the digital signal processing mathematics, I finally managed to do it. This indicator takes the familiar EMA concept and opens it up to four different discretization methods, each representing a valid way to transform a continuous-time exponential smoother into a discrete-time recursive filter. On top of that, it includes adjustable filter order, which fundamentally changes the frequency response characteristics in ways that simply changing the period length cannot achieve.
The four discretization styles are impulse-matched, all-pole, matched z-transform, and bilinear (Tustin). The all-pole version is exactly like stacking multiple EMAs together but implemented in a single function with proper coefficient calculation. It uses a canonical form where you get one gain coefficient and the rest are zeros, with the feedback coefficients derived from the binomial expansion of the pole polynomial. The other three methods are attempts at making generalizations of the EMA in different ways. Impulse-matched creates the filter by matching the discrete-time impulse response to what the continuous EMA would produce. Matched z-transform directly maps the continuous poles to the z-domain using the exponential relationship. Bilinear uses the Tustin transformation with frequency prewarping to ensure the cutoff frequency is preserved despite the inherent warping of the mapping.
Honestly, they're all mostly the same in practice, which is exactly what you'd expect since they're all valid discretizations of the same underlying filter. The differences show up in subtle ways during volatile market conditions or in the exact phase characteristics, but for most trading applications the outputs will track each other closely. That said, the bilinear version works particularly well at low periods like 2, where other methods can sometimes produce numerical artifacts. I personally like the z-match for its clean frequency-domain properties, but the real point here is demonstrating that you can tackle the same problem from multiple mathematical angles and end up with slightly different but equally valid implementations.
The order parameter is where things get interesting. A first-order EMA is the standard single-pole recursive filter everyone knows. When you move to second-order, you're essentially cascading two filter sections, which steepens the roll-off in the frequency domain and changes how the filter responds to sudden price movements. Higher orders continue this progression. The all-pole style makes this particularly clear since it's literally stacking EMA operations, but all four discretization methods support arbitrary order. This gives you control over the aggressiveness of the smoothing that goes beyond just adjusting the period length.
On top of the core EMA calculation, I've included all the standard variants that people use for reducing lag. DEMA applies the EMA twice and combines the results to get faster response. TEMA takes it further with three applications. HEMA uses a Hull-style calculation with fractional periods, applying the EMA to the difference between a half-period EMA and a full-period EMA, then smoothing that result with the square root of the period. These are all implemented using whichever discretization method you select, so you're not mixing different mathematical approaches. Everything stays consistent within the chosen framework.
The practical upside of this indicator is flexibility for people building trading systems. If you need a moving average with specific frequency response characteristics, you can tune the order parameter instead of hunting for the right period length. If you want to test whether different discretization methods affect your strategy's performance, you can swap between them without changing any other code. For most users, the impulse-matched style at order 1 will behave almost identically to a standard EMA, which gives you a familiar baseline to work from. From there you can experiment with higher orders or different styles to see if they provide any edge in your particular market or timeframe.
What this really highlights is that even something as seemingly simple as an exponential moving average involves mathematical choices that usually stay hidden. The standard EMA formula you see in textbooks is already a discretized version of a continuous exponential decay, and there are multiple valid ways to perform that discretization. By exposing these options, this indicator lets you explore a parameter space that most traders never even know exists. Whether that exploration leads to better trading results is an empirical question that depends on your strategy and market, but at minimum it's a useful reminder that the tools we take for granted are built on arbitrary but reasonable mathematical decisions.
