Higher Timeframe TrendMap [BigBeluga]🔵HTF TrendMap
A powerful visual overlay that brings higher timeframe market structure directly onto your intraday chart.
This tool maps directional bias, trend strength, and dynamic range boundaries from a user-selected HTF (like Daily or 4H), offering a real-time confluence layer for scalpers, day traders, and swing traders.
By plotting the evolving average (HL2), it acts as a volatility-weighted trend anchor, allowing you to align lower timeframe entries with higher timeframe intent.
Technical Overview:
At the close of each higher timeframe (HTF) candle, the indicator stores the high, low, and calculates the HL2 midpoint. These values are then referenced on the lower timeframe chart to plot trend direction and price boundaries.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Maps the selected higher timeframe (HTF) (e.g., Daily) onto your current chart.
At the close of each HTF candle , it starts to calculate and store the highest, lowest, and average (HL2) price levels .
The average (HL2) value is treated as the HTF trend baseline —plotted in orange for uptrend , blue for downtrend .
Visual curve thickens and fades to show progress through the HTF period (stronger color = fresher data).
Horizontal dashed lines show HTF high and low levels that persist until the next period closes.
On every HTF close, two price labels are printed for the high and low levels.
Vertical separators visually mark the start of each HTF candle for easy structural recognition.
A real-time dashboard shows selected HTF, current trend direction (🢁/🢃), and updates dynamically.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use the HTF average line as a bias filter —only long when the trend is up (orange), short when down (blue).
HTF high/low labels help identify key breakout or rejection zones .
Combine with intraday systems or reversal tools for multi-timeframe confluence setups .
Ideal for scalpers and swing traders who rely on HTF momentum shifts .
🔵 CONCLUSION
HTF TrendMap provides a clean, data-rich layer of higher timeframe context to any chart. With adaptive trend coloring, volatility mapping, and real-time data labeling, it enables traders to stay in sync with macro structure while executing on the micro.
VWAP table with color
## 📊 VWAP Table with Color – Clear VWAP Deviation at a Glance
This script displays a **VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price)** table in a non-intrusive, color-coded panel on your chart. It helps you **quickly assess where the current price stands relative to VWAP**, classified into sigma bands (standard deviations). The goal is to provide valuable VWAP insight **without cluttering the chart with multiple lines**.
---
### 🔍 Purpose & Concept
VWAP is a powerful tool used by institutional traders to measure the average price an asset has traded at throughout the day, based on both volume and price.
In this script:
- We **do not plot traditional VWAP lines** with multiple ±1σ, ±2σ, etc., on the chart.
- Instead, we **summarize VWAP and its relative position in a table**, color-coded by deviation.
- This provides the **same information**, but in a **cleaner, minimal, and visually digestible format**.
---
### 🧠 VWAP Deviation Classification
The script calculates how far the current price is from the VWAP, in units of **standard deviation (σ)**.
The formula is:
```plaintext
VWAP Delta σ = (Current Price - VWAP) / Standard Deviation
```
This gives you a normalized value for deviation from VWAP, and it is **clamped between -3 and +3** to avoid extreme outliers.
Each range is color-coded and classified as:
| VWAP Δσ | Zone | Interpretation | Color |
|---------|---------------|------------------------------------------|--------------|
| -3σ | Far Below | Strongly below VWAP – potentially oversold | 🔴 Red |
| -2σ | Below | Below VWAP – bearish territory | 🟠 Orange |
| -1σ | Slightly Below| Slightly under VWAP – weak signal | 🟡 Yellow |
| 0σ | At VWAP | Price is around VWAP – neutral zone | ⚪ Gray |
| +1σ | Slightly Above| Slightly above VWAP – weak bullish | 🟢 Lime Green |
| +2σ | Above | Above VWAP – bullish signal | 🟢 Green |
| +3σ | Far Above | Strongly above VWAP – potentially overbought | 🟦 Teal |
This **compact summary in the table** provides a clear situational view while keeping the chart clean.
---
### ⚙️ User Customization
Users can configure:
- **VWAP σ Multiplier** (default 0.1) to set the width of the optional VWAP band on the chart.
- **Table Position** (Top Center, Bottom Right, etc.).
- **Text Size** and **Text Color**.
- **Hide VWAP logic**: VWAP data can be hidden automatically on higher timeframes (e.g., daily or weekly).
- **Enable/disable the VWAP ±σ band lines** (optional visual aid).
---
### 📐 Technical Highlights
- VWAP is recalculated each day using `ta.vwap(hlc3, isNewPeriod, 1)`.
- The band width uses standard deviation and the selected multiplier: `VWAP ± σ * multiplier`.
- Table updates dynamically with the new VWAP values each day.
- To **avoid floating-point rounding issues**, `vwapDelta` is rounded before comparison, ensuring correct background color display.
---
### ✅ Why Use This?
- Keeps your chart **visually clean and readable**.
- Gives **immediate context** to current price action relative to VWAP.
- Helps **discretionary traders** or **scalpers** decide whether price is stretched too far from the mean.
- Easier than tracking multiple σ bands manually.
---
### Example Usage:
- On intraday timeframes, you can identify price exhaustion as it hits ±2σ or ±3σ.
- On a 5-minute chart, if price touches `+3σ`, you may consider taking profits on longs.
- On reversal setups, watch for price at `-3σ` with bullish divergence.
---
### 🧩 Future Enhancements (Optional Ideas)
- Add alerts for when `vwapDelta` crosses thresholds like ±2σ or ±3σ.
- Let user select the timeframe for VWAP source (e.g., 1H, 5M, etc.).
- Extend to display VWAP on session or weekly basis.

Daily ATR Bonanza: Expected Moves - Tr33man Daily ATR Bonanza: Expected Moves
Overview 🤷♂️
The Daily ATR Bonanza script is a powerful trading tool designed to help traders visualize and understand potential price movements using the Average True Range (ATR). It provides daily and weekly ATR levels, historical statistics, and conditional probability analysis to give traders actionable insights. The script also plots the daily Keltner channel. This script is ideal for traders who want to gauge volatility, identify key levels, and make data-driven decisions.
b]Key Features:
📈 1. Daily and Weekly ATR Levels
🔵ATR Levels: The script calculates and displays ATR-based levels for the day and week. These levels are derived from the previous day's or week's close price and are adjusted using customizable multipliers (0.5x, 1x, and 1.5x by default).
🔵You can choose the number of ATR levels (1, 2, or 3) and adjust the multipliers to suit your trading strategy.
🌐 2. ATR Bands (Keltner Channels)
🔵The script includes an option to display ATR Bands, which are volatility-based envelopes around a moving average. These bands help identify overbought and oversold conditions.
🔵You can adjust the ATR multiplier and the length of the moving average used for the bands.
🧮 3. Historical Statistics and Conditional Probability
🔵 Historical Analysis: The script analyzes historical price movements to calculate the likelihood of closing at certain ATR levels.
🔵 Conditional Probability: This feature shows the probability of the price reaching specific ATR levels given the current market conditions. The conditional matches historical data by an open in the same opening ATR bucket, as well as the current price bucket having been visited in the historical case. Conditional probabilities are just statistics, and do not predict anything.
Data Table: 📚
🔵 Historical Close Probability: The percentage of days the price closed within each ATR level.
🔵 Conditional Close Probability: The likelihood of the price closing within each ATR level today.
❓ What is Conditional Probability? ❓
Conditional probability is a statistical measure that calculates the likelihood of an event occurring given that another event has already occurred. In this script, it is used to determine the probability of the price reaching specific ATR levels based on the current opening range as well as current ATR distance from the previous close.
For example:
If the market opens near the lower end of the first ATR level, the script calculates the likelihood of the price reaching the upper end of the first, second, or third ATR level.
This analysis is based on historical data, making it a powerful tool for understanding potential price movements.
🌟 Understanding the Levels
🔵Daily Levels: These are based on the previous day's close price and ATR. They are updated at the start of each new day.
🔵Weekly Levels: These are based on the previous week's close price and ATR. They are updated at the start of each new week.
🔵ATR Bands: These are dynamic levels that adjust with market volatility.
🔬 Analyze the Statistics (Daily only for now, no weekly yet)
🔵Use the interactive table to understand historical probabilities and conditional probabilities.
🔵Focus on the current opening range and the likelihood of reaching specific levels.
🧠 Make Trading Decisions
🔵Use the ATR levels and bands to identify key support and resistance levels.
🔵Use the conditional probability table to gauge the likelihood of reaching specific targets.
🔵Adjust your strategy based on the historical performance of the market.
Example Use Cases
1. Day Trading
Use the daily ATR levels to set intraday targets and stop-loss levels.
Monitor the conditional probability table to adjust your expectations based on the opening range.
2. Swing Trading
Use the weekly ATR levels to identify longer-term support and resistance levels.
3. Scalping
Use the ATR bands to identify overbought and oversold conditions.
Use the conditional probability table to quickly assess the likelihood of price movements.
Volume-Weighted Pivot BandsThe Volume-Weighted Pivot Bands are meant to be a dynamic, rolling pivot system designed to provide traders with responsive support and resistance levels that adapt to both price volatility and volume participation. Unlike traditional daily pivot levels, this tool recalculates levels bar-by-bar using a rolling window of volume-weighted averages, making it highly relevant for intraday traders, scalpers, swing traders, and algorithmic systems alike.
-- What This Indicator Does --
This tool calculates a rolling VWAP-based pivot level, and surrounds that central pivot with up to five upper bands (R1–R5) and five lower bands (S1–S5). These act as dynamic zones of potential resistance (R) and support (S), adapting in real time to price and volume changes.
Rather than relying on static session or daily data, this indicator provides continually evolving levels, offering more relevant levels during sideways action, trending periods, and breakout conditions.
-- How the Bands Are Calculated --
Pivot (VWAP Pivot):
The core of this system is a rolling Volume-Weighted Average Price, calculated over a user-defined window (default 20 bars). This ensures that each bar’s price impact is weighted by its volume, giving a more accurate view of fair value during the selected lookback.
Volume-Weighted Range (VW Range):
The highest high and lowest low over the same window are used to calculate the volatility range — this acts as a spread factor.
Support & Resistance Bands (S1–S5, R1–R5):
The bands are offset above and below the pivot using multiples of the VW Range:
R1 = Pivot + (VW Range × multiplier)
R2 = R1 + (VW Range × multiplier)
R3 = R2 + (VW Range x multiplier)
...
S1 = Pivot − (VW Range × multiplier)
S2 = S1 − (VW Range × multiplier)
S3 = S2 - (VW Range x multiplier)
...
You can control the multiplier manually (default is 0.25), to widen or tighten band spacing.
Smoothing (Optional):
To prevent erratic movements, you can optionally toggle on/off a simple moving average to the pivot line (default length = 20), providing a smoother trend base for the bands.
-- How to Use It --
This indicator can be used for:
Support and resistance identification:
Price often reacts to R1/S1, and the outer bands (R4/R5 or S4/S5) act as overshoot zones or strong reversal areas.
Trend context:
If price is respecting upper bands (R2–R3), the trend is likely bullish. If price is pressing into S3 or lower, it may indicate sustained selling pressure or a breakdown.
Volatility framing:
The distance between bands adjusts based on price range over the rolling window. In tighter markets, the bands compress — in volatile moves, they expand. This makes the indicator self-adaptive.
Mean reversion trades:
A move into R4/R5 or S4/S5 without continuation can be a sign of exhaustion — potential for reversal toward the pivot.
Alerting:
Built-in alerts are available for crosses of all major bands (R1–R5, S1–S5), enabling trade automation or scalp alerts with ease.
-- Visual Features --
Fuchsia Lines: Mark all Resistance (R1–R5) levels.
Lime Lines: Mark all Support (S1–S5) levels.
Gray Circle Line: Marks the rolling pivot (VWAP-based).
-- Customizable Settings --
Rolling Length: Number of bars used to calculate VWAP and VW Range.
Multiplier: Controls how wide the bands are spaced.
Smooth Pivot: Toggle on/off to smooth the central pivot.
Pivot Smoothing Length: Controls how many bars to average when smoothing is enabled.
Offset: Visually shift all bands forward/backward in time.
-- Why Use This Over Standard Pivots? --
Traditional pivots are based on previous session data and remain fixed. That’s useful for static setups, but may become irrelevant as price action evolves. In contrast:
This system updates every bar, adjusting to current price behavior.
It includes volume — a key feature missing from most static pivots.
It shows multiple bands, giving a full view of compression, breakout potential, or trend exhaustion.
-- Who Is This For? --
This tool is ideal for:
Day traders & scalpers who need relevant intraday levels.
Swing traders looking for evolving areas of confluence.
Algorithmic/systematic traders who rely on quantifiable, volume-aware support/resistance.
Traders on all assets: works on crypto, stocks, futures, forex — any chart that has volume.
Trend Following Bundle [ActiveQuants]The Trend Following Bundle indicator is a comprehensive toolkit designed to equip traders with a suite of essential technical analysis tools focused on identifying , confirming , and capitalizing on market trends . By bundling popular indicators like Moving Averages , MACD , Supertrend , ADX , ATR , OBV , and the Choppiness Index into a single script, it streamlines chart analysis and enhances strategy development.
This bundle operates on the principle that combining signals from multiple, complementary indicators provides a more robust view of market trends than relying on a single tool. It integrates:
Trend Direction: Moving Averages, Supertrend.
Momentum: MACD.
Trend Strength: ADX.
Volume Pressure: On Balance Volume (OBV).
Volatility: Average True Range (ATR).
Market Condition Filter: Choppiness Index (Trend vs. Range).
By allowing users to selectively enable, customize, and view these indicators (potentially across different timeframes), the bundle facilitates nuanced and layered trend analysis.
█ KEY FEATURES
All-in-One Convenience: Access multiple core trend-following indicators within a single TradingView script slot.
Modular Design: Easily toggle each individual indicator (MAs, MACD, Supertrend, etc.) On or Off via the settings menu to customize your chart view.
Extensive Customization: Fine-tune parameters (lengths, sources, MA types, colors, etc.) for every included indicator to match your trading style and the specific asset.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Capability: Configure each indicator component to analyze data from a different timeframe than the chart's, allowing for higher-level trend context.
Integrated Alerts: Pre-built alert conditions for key events like Moving Average crossovers , MACD signals , Supertrend flips , and Choppiness Index threshold crosses . Easily set up alerts through TradingView's alert system.
When configuring your alerts in TradingView, pay close attention to the trigger option:
- Setting it to " Only Once " will trigger the alert the first time the condition is met, which might happen during an unclosed bar (intra-bar). This alert instance will then cease.
- Setting it to " Once Per Bar Close " will trigger the alert only after a bar closes if the condition was met on that finalized bar. This ensures signals are based on confirmed data and allows the alert to potentially trigger again on subsequent closing bars if the condition persists or reoccurs. Use this option for signals based on confirmed, closed-bar data.

█ STRATEGY EXAMPLES
The following strategy examples are provided for illustrative and educational purposes only to demonstrate how indicators within this bundle could be combined. They do not constitute financial advice or trading recommendations. Always conduct your own thorough research and backtesting before implementing any trading strategy.
Here are a few ways the indicators in this bundle can be combined:
1. MA Crossover with Multi-Factor Confirmation
Goal: Enter trends early with confirmation from momentum and trend strength, while filtering out choppy conditions.
Setup: Enable Fast MA (e.g., 9 EMA), Slow MA (e.g., 50 EMA), MACD, ADX, and Choppiness Index.
Entry (Long):
- Price > Slow MA (Establishes broader uptrend context).
- Fast MA crosses above Slow MA OR Price crosses above Fast MA.
- MACD Histogram > 0 (Confirms bullish momentum).
- ADX > 20 or 25 (Indicates sufficient trend strength).
- Choppiness Index < 61.8 (Filters out excessively choppy markets).
Entry (Short): Reverse logic (except for ADX and Choppiness Index).
Management: Consider using the Supertrend or an ATR multiple for stop-loss placement.

2. Supertrend Breakout Strategy
Goal: Use Supertrend for primary signals and stops, confirming with volume and trend strength.
Setup: Enable Supertrend, Slow MA, ADX, and OBV.
Entry (Long):
- Supertrend line turns green and price closes above it.
- Price > Slow MA (Optional filter for alignment with larger trend).
- ADX is rising or above 20 (Confirms trending conditions).
- OBV is generally rising or breaks a recent resistance level (Confirms volume supporting the move).
Entry (Short): Reverse logic (except for ADX and OBV).
Management: Initial stop-loss placed just below the green Supertrend line (for longs) or above the red line (for shorts). Trail stop as Supertrend moves.

3. Trend Continuation Pullbacks
Goal: Enter established trends during pullbacks to value areas defined by MAs or Supertrend.
Setup: Enable Slow MA, Fast MA (or Supertrend), MACD, and ADX.
Entry (Long):
- Price is consistently above the Slow MA (Strong uptrend established).
- ADX > 25 (Confirms strong trend).
- Price pulls back towards the Fast MA or the green Supertrend line.
- MACD Histogram was decreasing during the pullback but turns positive again OR MACD line crosses above Signal line near the MA/Supertrend level (Indicates momentum resuming).
Entry (Short): Reverse logic (except for ADX) during a confirmed downtrend.
Management: Stop-loss below the recent swing low or the Slow MA/Supertrend level.

█ CONCLUSION
The Trend Following Bundle offers a powerful and flexible solution for traders focused on trend-based strategies. By consolidating essential indicators into one script with deep customization, multi-timeframe analysis, and built-in alerts, it simplifies the analytical workflow and allows for the development of robust, multi-conditional trading systems. Whether used for confirming entries, identifying trend strength, managing risk, or filtering market conditions, this bundle provides a versatile foundation for technical analysis.
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
⚠ Parameter Tuning: Indicator settings (lengths, factors, thresholds) are not one-size-fits-all. Adjust them based on the asset being traded, its typical volatility, and the timeframe you are analyzing for optimal performance. Backtesting is crucial .
⚠ Multi-Timeframe Use: Using the Timeframe input allows for powerful analysis but be mindful of potential lag, especially if Wait TF Close is disabled. Signals based on higher timeframes will update only when that higher timeframe bar closes (if Wait TF Close is enabled).
⚠ Confirmation is Key: While the bundle provides many tools, avoid relying on a single indicator's signal. Use combinations to build confluence and increase the probability of successful trades.
⚠ Chart Clarity: With many indicators available, only enable those relevant to your current strategy to avoid overwhelming your chart. Use the On/Off toggles frequently.
⚠ Confirmed Bars Only: Like most TradingView indicators, signals and plots are finalized on the close of the bar. Be cautious acting on intra-bar signals which may change before the bar closes.
█ RISK DISCLAIMER
Trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. The Trend Following Bundle indicator provides technical analysis tools for educational and informational purposes only; it does not constitute financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any asset. Indicator signals identify potential patterns based on historical data but do not guarantee future price movements or profitability. Always conduct your own thorough analysis, use multiple sources of information, and implement robust risk management practices before making any trading decisions. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Multi 10 Symbol Scanner Table V1Script Summary: "Multi 10 Symbol Scanner Table V1"
This TradingView indicator acts as a powerful market scanner dashboard. Instead of plotting signals on your main price chart, its primary purpose is to display a table summarizing the technical status of up to 10 different assets (stocks, crypto, forex pairs, etc.) that you choose.
Think of it as a watchlist on steroids. It analyzes each symbol you enter based on a consistent set of rules you define and presents the results side-by-side in the table for quick comparison.
Here's what the table shows for each symbol you add:
Symbol: The ticker name of the asset being scanned.
Actual Price: The current market price of that asset.
Price vs. MAs: Indicates the short-term trend based on whether the price (on the chart's current timeframe) is above two moving average lines ("Above Both"), below them ("Below Both"), or in between ("Mixed"). This column is color-coded (Green/Red/Gray).
RSI Value: Shows the current RSI (Relative Strength Index) number, a measure of momentum (calculated on the chart's current timeframe).
RSI Status: Tells you if the RSI is currently "Overbought," "Oversold," or "Neutral" based on the levels you set. This column is color-coded (Red/Green/Gray).
SIG NOW: A combined "immediate signal" based on the Price vs. MAs and RSI Status conditions (calculated on the chart's current timeframe). It shows "BUY," "SELL," or "NEUTRAL" and is color-coded (Green/Red/Gray).
ALERT: Flags unusual trading volume activity (calculated on the chart's current timeframe). It shows "SPIKE" for high volume, "DUMP" for low volume, or "NONE." This column is color-coded (Orange/Purple/Gray).
LTS (TF1), LTS (TF2), LTS (TF3): These three columns show separate Long-Term Signals for each asset. Each signal is calculated independently using Bollinger Bands on a different, higher timeframe that you specify (e.g., Daily, Weekly, Monthly). It shows "BUY," "SELL," or "NEUTRAL" along with the price at which that signal occurred on that specific higher timeframe. These columns are also color-coded (Green/Red/Gray).
In essence: This script lets you monitor multiple assets simultaneously from one place, checking their short-term trend, momentum, volume activity, and longer-term signals across three different time perspectives, all updated in real-time within the table.
Important Note: This script only displays information in the table. It does not plot any lines or signals on your main chart, nor does it generate built-in TradingView alerts. It's purely a visual dashboard for scanning.
How to Adjust the Script Settings
You can customize the scanner through its "Settings" panel in TradingView. Here’s how to adjust each part:
1. Symbols (Enter Ticker IDs like 'BINANCE:BTCUSDT')
Symbol 1 to Symbol 10: These are the 10 slots where you enter the assets you want to scan.
How to Enter: You need the full Ticker ID, often including the exchange prefix. Examples: NASDAQ:AAPL, BINANCE:BTCUSDT, FX:EURUSD, NYSE:GME. You can find these using TradingView's symbol search.
Leaving Blank: If you don't need all 10 slots, just leave the extra ones blank. The table will only show rows for the symbols you've entered.
2. Indicator Settings (Chart Timeframe)
These settings define the rules for the analysis performed using the timeframe of the chart you currently have open. These rules are applied to all symbols in your list for the "Price vs MAs," "RSI," "SIG NOW," and "ALERT" columns.
MA Source: Choose which price point (Close, Open, High, Low, etc.) the moving averages should be based on. (Default: Close)
Short MA Period: Set the number of bars for the shorter-term moving average. A smaller number reacts faster. (Default: 20)
Long MA Period: Set the number of bars for the longer-term moving average. A larger number shows a smoother trend. (Default: 50)
RSI Source: Choose which price point the RSI momentum calculation should use. (Default: Close)
RSI Period: Set the number of bars for the RSI calculation. (Default: 14)
RSI Overbought Level: The RSI level above which an asset is considered "Overbought" in the table. (Default: 70)
RSI Oversold Level: The RSI level below which an asset is considered "Oversold" in the table. (Default: 30)
SIG NOW RSI Buy Min: The minimum RSI value required (along with price being above MAs) to show a "BUY" signal in the "SIG NOW" column. (Default: 55)
SIG NOW RSI Sell Max: The maximum RSI value required (along with price being below MAs) to show a "SELL" signal in the "SIG NOW" column. (Default: 45)
Volume Lookback (LBV): How many bars (on the chart's timeframe) to look back to calculate the average volume for the Spike/Dump alerts. (Default: 3)
Volume MA Type: The type of averaging method used for the volume calculation. (Default: EMA)
3. Volume Alert Settings
These control the sensitivity of the "ALERT" column (Spike/Dump detection) for all symbols.
Volume Alert Sensitivity: Choose a preset:
"Normal": Standard thresholds.
"Sensitive": Easier to trigger alerts.
"Highly Sensitive": Easiest to trigger alerts.
"Custom": Uses the manual multipliers below.
Custom Spike Multiplier (>1): (Only used if Sensitivity is "Custom") Volume must be this many times greater than average to trigger SPIKE. (e.g., 1.5 = 50% higher).
Custom Dump Multiplier (<1): (Only used if Sensitivity is "Custom") Volume must be this many times smaller than average to trigger DUMP. (e.g., 0.7 = 30% lower).
4. Long Term Signal (LTS) Settings
These settings control the calculations for the three independent "LTS" columns in the table. Each LTS column analyzes data from a specific higher timeframe you choose.
LTS Timeframe 1 / 2 / 3: Select the higher timeframes (e.g., 'D' for Daily, 'W' for Weekly, 'M' for Monthly) for each of the three LTS calculations. These will determine the data used for the corresponding LTS columns in the table.
LTS BB Source: The price source used for the Bollinger Band calculation on the selected LTS timeframes. (Default: Close)
LTS BB Length: The period (number of bars on the chosen LTS timeframe) used for the Bollinger Band calculation. (Default: 20)
LTS BB StdDev: The standard deviation multiplier for the Bollinger Bands used in the LTS calculations. (Default: 2.0)
5. Table Settings
These control the appearance of the scanner table itself.
Table Position: Choose which corner or side of the chart the table should appear on.
Decimal Places (Non-Price): How many decimal places to show for values like the RSI number in the table.
Table Text Size: Adjust the font size inside the table cells ("tiny", "small", "normal", "large", "huge").
By adjusting these settings, you can tailor the scanner to focus on the assets, timeframes, and technical conditions that matter most to your trading strategy. Remember to enter valid ticker symbols for the assets you want to track.
Chart Plotter & Scanner Table V1Script Summary: "Chart Plotter & Scanner Table V1"
This TradingView indicator is designed to give you a comprehensive analysis of the single stock, crypto, or asset currently displayed on your chart. It does this in two main ways:
Visual Signals on the Chart: It draws helpful information directly onto your price chart:
Trend Lines: Plots two moving average lines (one short-term, one long-term) to help you visualize the current price trend.
Buy/Sell Markers ("SIG NOW"): Shows triangle markers below the price (green for potential Buy) or above the price (red for potential Sell) when specific conditions related to price trend and momentum (RSI) are met.
Volume Activity Markers ("ALERT"): Displays small labels ("S" for Spike, "D" for Dump) when the trading volume is unusually high or low compared to its recent average, indicating potentially significant market activity.
Long-Term Signal Markers ("LTS"): Shows small shapes (circles, diamonds, squares) to indicate potential long-term Buy or Sell signals derived from analyzing price action on up to three different, higher timeframes (like Daily, Weekly, Monthly) that you choose.
Status Summary Table: It displays a neat table on your chart (you choose the corner) that acts like a dashboard, summarizing the key findings for the current asset:
Symbol & Price: Shows the ticker symbol and the latest price.
Price vs. Trend: Tells you if the current price is above both trend lines ("Above Both"), below both ("Below Both"), or in between ("Mixed"), with color-coding (Green/Red/Gray).
Momentum (RSI): Shows the current RSI value and its status ("Overbought", "Oversold", or "Neutral"), with color-coding (Red/Green/Gray).
Immediate Signal ("SIG NOW"): Displays the current Buy, Sell, or Neutral status based on the combined trend and momentum rules, with color-coding (Green/Red/Gray).
Volume Alert ("ALERT"): Shows if there's a volume Spike, Dump, or None, with color-coding (Orange/Purple/Gray).
Long-Term Signals (LTS): Shows the Buy, Sell, or Neutral status calculated from each of the three chosen higher timeframes, including the price at which the signal occurred on that timeframe, with color-coding (Green/Red/Gray).
Essentially, this script combines short-term trend and momentum analysis with volume activity monitoring and longer-term perspective signals, presenting the information clearly on your chart and in a summary table for quick assessment. It also allows you to create TradingView alerts based on these signals.
How to Adjust the Script Settings

Decimal Places (Non-Price): How many decimal places to show for values like the RSI number in the table.
Table Text Size: Adjust the font size inside the table cells.
Setting Up Alerts:
This script creates the conditions for alerts. To actually receive notifications:
Click the "Alert" button (clock icon) in TradingView's top toolbar or right-click on the chart.
In the "Condition" dropdown, select the script name ("Chart Plotter & Scanner Table V1").
You will see a list of available alert conditions created by the script (e.g., "SIG NOW Buy Alert", "RSI Overbought Alert", "LTS TF1 Buy Alert", etc.). Choose the one you want.
Configure the rest of the alert settings (Options, Actions, Message) as desired.
Click "Create". Repeat for any other signals you want alerts for.
By adjusting these settings, you can fine-tune the indicator to match your trading style, the specific asset you are analyzing, and the timeframes you are interested in.
Entropy Bands (TechnoBlooms)Entropy Bands — A New Era of Volatility and Trend Analysis
Entropy Bands is our next indicator as a part of the Quantum Price Theory (QPT) Series of indicators.
🧠 Overview
Entropy Bands are an advanced volatility-based indicator that reimagines traditional banded systems like Bollinger Bands.
Built on entropy theory, adaptive moving averages, and dynamic volatility measurement, Entropy Bands provide deeper insights into market randomness, trend strength, and breakout potential.
Instead of only relying on price deviation (like Bollinger Bands), Entropy Bands integrate chaos theory principles to create smarter, more responsive dynamic bands that adapt to real market behavior.
🚀Why is Entropy Bands Different — and Better
Dynamic Band Width : Adjusts using both entropy and ATR, creating smarter expansion/contraction.
Multi-Moving Average Core : Choose between SMA, EMA, or WMA for optimal centerline behavior.
Noise and Breakout Filtering : Filters fake breakouts by analyzing candle body size and entropy conditions.
Visual Clarity : Background and candle coloring highlight chaotic/noisy zones, trend zones, and breakout moments.
Entropy Bands don't just react to price — they analyze the underlying market behavior, offering superior decision-making signals.
📚 Watch Band Behavior:
Bands expand during volatility spikes or chaotic conditions.
Bands contract during low volatility or tight consolidation zones.
📚 Analyze Candle Coloring:
Green = Bullish breakout (closing above upper band).
Pink = Bearish breakout (closing below lower band).
Gray = Inside bands (neutral/random noise).
✨ Key Features of Entropy Bands:
Entropy-Based Band Width Calculation: A scientific edge over pure price deviation methods.
Dynamic Background Coloring: Highlights high entropy areas where randomness dominates.
Candle Breakout Coloring: Easy-to-spot trend breakouts and strength moves.
Multi-MA Flexibility: Adapt the bands’ core to trending, ranging, or volatile markets.
Body Size Filter: Protects against fake breakouts by requiring meaningful candle body moves.
NY Time Cycles# New York Time Cycles Indicator
## Overview
The Time Cycles indicator is a specialized technical analysis tool designed to divide the trading day into distinct time blocks based on New York trading hours. Developed for TradingView, this indicator helps traders identify and analyze market behavior during specific time periods throughout the trading session. The indicator displays six consecutive time blocks, each representing 90-minute segments of the trading day, while tracking price ranges within each block.
## Core Concept
The Time Cycles indicator is built on the premise that different periods during the trading day often exhibit unique market characteristics and behaviors. By segmenting the trading day into standardized 90-minute blocks, traders can:
1. Identify recurring patterns at specific times of day
2. Compare price action across different time blocks
3. Recognize potential support and resistance levels based on the high and low of previous time blocks
4. Develop time-based trading strategies specific to certain market hours
## Time Block Structure
The indicator divides the trading day into six sequential 90-minute blocks based on New York time:
1. **Box 1**: 07:00 - 08:30 ET
2. **Box 2**: 08:30 - 10:00 ET
3. **Box 3**: 10:00 - 11:30 ET
4. **Box 4**: 11:30 - 13:00 ET
5. **Box 5**: 13:00 - 14:30 ET
6. **Box 6**: 14:30 - 16:00 ET
These time blocks cover the core US trading session from pre-market into regular market hours.
## Visual Representation
Each time block is represented on the chart as a visual box that:
- Spans the exact time period of the block (horizontally)
- Extends from the highest high to the lowest low recorded during that time period (vertically)
- Is displayed with customizable colors and transparency levels
- Automatically builds in real-time as price action develops
Additionally, the indicator draws dashed projection lines that:
- Display the high and low of the most recently completed time block
- Extend forward in time (for up to 24 hours)
- Help traders identify potential support and resistance levels
## Technical Implementation
The indicator employs several key technical features:
1. **Time Detection**: Accurately identifies the current New York time to place each box in the correct time period
2. **Dynamic Box Creation**: Initializes and updates boxes in real-time as price action develops
3. **Range Tracking**: Continuously monitors and adjusts the high and low of each active time block
4. **Projection Lines**: Creates horizontal dashed lines projecting the high and low of the most recently completed time block
5. **Daily Reset**: Automatically resets all boxes and lines at the start of each new trading day
6. **Customization**: Allows users to set custom colors and transparency levels for each time block
This Time Cycles indicator provides traders with a structured framework for analyzing intraday market movements based on specific time periods. By understanding how the market typically behaves during each 90-minute block, traders can develop more targeted strategies and potentially identify higher-probability trading opportunities throughout the trading day.

DETAILED SIGNAL LOGIC
Trend Determination:
The script determines the trend direction by comparing leading_line1 and leading_line2.
If leading_line1 is above leading_line2, the trend is considered bullish (isBullish). Otherwise, it's bearish (isBearish).
Signal Conditions:
Long Entry (LE): Triggered when the trend turns bullish from bearish.
Short Entry (SE): Triggered when the trend turns bearish from bullish.
Exit Long (XL): Triggered when the price crosses below leading_line1 during an uptrend.
Re-enter Long (RL): Triggered when the price crosses above leading_line1 during an uptrend.
Exit Short (XS): Triggered when the price crosses above leading_line1 during a downtrend.
Re-enter Short (RS): Triggered when the price crosses below leading_line1 during a downtrend.
Label Styling:
Labels are color-coded for quick identification:
Green for long entries and re-entries.
Red for short entries and exits.
Blue for exiting long positions.
Orange for re-entering short positions.
Tooltips provide additional context for each label.
Alert Configuration:
Alerts are generated for each signal condition, ensuring traders are notified promptly.
Users can set up these alerts within TradingView by creating new alerts and selecting the appropriate conditions.
LIMITATIONS
The indicator may lag behind price action due to its use of moving averages and channel calculations 🕒.
False signals can occur in choppy or sideways markets 🌪️.
Users should always confirm signals with other forms of analysis.
NOTES
Ensure that you have sufficient historical data available for accurate calculations.
Test the indicator thoroughly on demo accounts before applying it to live trading 🔍.
Customize the appearance and parameters as needed to fit your trading strategy.
For better risk management, consider integrating stop-loss and take-profit levels into your trading plan.
To optimize performance, manage old labels by deleting them after a certain period to avoid clutter on the chart.

Multi-Timeframe Closures with Signals month week dayMulti-Timeframe Price Anchoring Indicator (Monthly, Weekly, Daily)
This indicator provides a powerful visual framework for analyzing price action across three major timeframes: monthly, weekly, and daily. It plots the closing prices of each timeframe directly on the chart to help traders assess where current price stands in relation to significant historical levels.
🔍 Core Features:
Monthly, Weekly, and Daily Close Lines: Automatically updated at the start of each new period.
Color-coded Price Anchors: Each timeframe is visually distinct for fast interpretation.
Multi-timeframe Awareness: Helps you identify trend alignment or divergence across different time horizons.
Long & Short Bias Signals: The script can optionally display long or short suggestions based on where the current price stands relative to the anchored closing prices.
📈 How to Use:
Trend Confirmation: If price is consistently above all three levels, it signals a strong bullish trend (potential long bias). If it’s below, the opposite applies (short bias).
Reversal or Pullback Zones: When price becomes extended far above/below the monthly and weekly closes, it may suggest overbought/oversold conditions and the possibility of a reversal or retracement.
Intraday Alignment: Useful for traders who want to enter positions on lower timeframes while being aware of higher timeframe trends.
This indicator is ideal for swing traders, day traders, and position traders who want to anchor their decisions to meaningful multi-timeframe reference points.

Smart Breakout with ATR Stop-LossThe Smart Breakout indicator combines a classic 20-day Donchian channel breakout with a tight trailing stop, drawing green lines and “ENTRY” labels at the bar after a valid breakout, and red lines and “EXIT” label at the bar after a stop-loss breach.
By default it uses the chart’s timeframe to compute ATR and stops, but you can flip on Daily lock to freeze both ATR and price reads at the daily resolution—so your stops stay the same whether you view at 1s, 15 m, 4h or lower frequency bars.
Key features:
20-day Donchian breakout: entry when price closes above the highest high of the previous 20 bars
2 × ATR(14) trailing stop: initialized at entry and raised only when the new (close – 2 × ATR) exceeds the prior stop
Daily lock option: Ensures all ATR and close values are calculated on the daily timeframe, keeping stop levels consistent across resolutions

Market Structure Confluence [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script is called "Market Structure Confluence" and it combines classic market structure analysis with a dynamic volatility-based band system to detect shifts in trend and momentum more reliably. It tracks key swing points (higher highs, higher lows, lower highs, lower lows) to define the trend, then overlays a basis and ATR-smoothed volatility bands to catch rejection signals and highlight potential inflection points in the market.
CONCEPTS
Market structure is the foundation of price action trading, focusing on the relationship between successive highs and lows to understand trend conditions. Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) events are important because they signal when a market might be shifting direction. This script enhances traditional structure by integrating volatility bands, which act like dynamic support/resistance zones based on ATR, allowing it to capture momentum surges and rejections beyond just structural shifts.
FEATURES
Swing Detection: It detects and labels Higher Highs (HH), Higher Lows (HL), Lower Highs (LH), and Lower Lows (LL) based on user-defined time horizons, helping traders quickly spot the trend direction.
BOS and CHoCH Lines: When a previous swing point is broken, the script automatically plots a Break of Structure (BOS) line. If the break represents a major trend reversal (a CHoCH), it is marked differently to separate simple breakouts from real trend changes.
Rejection Signals: Special arrows plot when price pierces a band and then pulls back, suggesting a potential trap move or rejection signal in the direction of the new structure.
Alerts: Built-in alerts for structure breaks, CHoCHs, swing points, rejections at bands, and trend flips make it easy to automate setups without manually watching the chart.
USAGE
Set your preferred swing detection size depending on your timeframe and trading style — smaller numbers for intraday, larger numbers for swing trading. Choose whether you want BOS/CHoCH confirmed by candle closes or by wick breaks. Use the volatility band settings to fine-tune how tightly or loosely the bands hug the price, adjusting sensitivity based on market conditions. When a BOS or CHoCH occurs, or when a rejection happens at the bands, the script will highlight it clearly and optionally trigger alerts. Watch for combinations where both structure breaks and volatility band rejections happen together — those are high-quality trade signals. This setup works best when used with basic trend filtering and higher timeframe confirmation.
MA Dashboard (NAPC Histogram Table) MADashV1MA Dashboard (MAPC Histogram Table) MADashV1 - User Guide
1. Introduction & Purpose
The "MA Dashboard (MADashV1)" indicator is a tool for TradingView designed to give you a quick, comprehensive overview of how the current price relates to multiple Moving Averages (MAs). It displays key information in a convenient table and provides a visual histogram in a separate pane below your main price chart.
Its main goals are:
To monitor up to six different MAs simultaneously without cluttering your main chart.
To instantly see if the price is currently above or below each MA ("Status").
To show the actual value of each MA ("MA$").
To identify the price level of the most recent price crossover for each MA within a specific lookback period (" TSX:XMA ").
To quantify the exact difference between the current price and each MA ("MAPC" - Moving Average Price Crossover/Difference).
To visualize the MAPC of one selected MA as a histogram for quick momentum assessment.
To optionally plot the historical MAPC values as lines in the histogram pane.
2. Key Features
Configurable MAs: Set up to 6 independent Moving Averages. For each, you can choose:
Type (SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA)
Length (Period)
Source (Close, Open, High, Low, etc.)
Color (Used for identification in the table)
Informative Table: A dashboard summarizing all configured MAs, showing:
MA Number (1-6)
Type & Length settings
Current MA Value (MA$)
Price Status relative to MA (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral)
Last Crossover Price ( TSX:XMA ) with color-coded background (Green=Up, Red=Down)
Price Difference from MA (MAPC) with color-coded text (Green=Positive, Red=Negative)
MAPC Histogram: Plotted in a separate pane, showing the difference between the price and one user-selected MA.
Green bars indicate the price is above the selected MA.
Red bars indicate the price is below the selected MA.
The height of the bars shows the magnitude of the difference.
Optional MAPC Lines: Plot the historical MAPC values for any of the 6 MAs as lines directly on the histogram pane for comparison.
Customizable Appearance: Control the table's position, colors (background, text, header, border), border size, and text size.
Flexible Formatting: Adjust the number of decimal places displayed for price values and MAPC values.
Crossover Lookback: Define how many bars back the indicator should look for the last price crossover ( TSX:XMA ).
3. How It Works (Simplified)
MA Calculation: The indicator calculates the value of each enabled Moving Average based on your chosen settings (Type, Length, Source).
Status Check: For each MA, it compares the current price (from the MA's Source setting) to the MA's calculated value. If the price is higher, the status is "Bullish"; if lower, "Bearish"; if equal, "Neutral".
MAPC Calculation: It simply subtracts the MA's value from the current price (Price - MA Value). This gives the raw price difference, shown in the MAPC column.
TSX:XMA Calculation: It looks back over the number of bars you specified ("Crossover Lookback Bars"). It finds the most recent instance where the price crossed either above or below the MA within that lookback period. It then records the price at which that specific crossover occurred and displays it in the TSX:XMA column. The background color indicates if the last cross within the lookback was upwards (green) or downwards (red). If no cross occurred within the lookback, it shows "N/A".
Histogram: It takes the MAPC value (Price - MA Value) calculated for the single MA you selected in the "Histogram Source MA" setting and plots it as a bar for each candle.
4. Indicator Components
Histogram Pane: This appears below your main price chart.
Histogram Bars: Visual representation of the MAPC for the selected MA.
Zero Line: A horizontal line indicating where the price is exactly equal to the selected MA.
(Optional) MAPC Lines: Lines showing the historical MAPC values for any MAs you choose to plot.
Information Table: Displayed on top of the Histogram Pane (or wherever you position it). This is the main dashboard showing the data for all enabled MAs.
5. Configuration Settings (Inputs)
When you add the indicator to your chart, you'll see these settings:
General Settings:
Show Info Table: Turn the table display on or off.
Table Horizontal/Vertical Position: Choose where the table appears (Top/Middle/Bottom, Left/Center/Right).
Table BG Color, Table Text Color, Table Header Color: Customize the table's colors.
Table Border Size, Table Border Color: Adjust the table's border.
Text Size: Change the font size within the table.
Formatting:
Price Decimals: Set how many decimal places to show for MA values (MA$) and crossover prices ( TSX:XMA ). "Default" uses the chart's setting.
MAPC Decimals: Set how many decimal places to show for the MAPC column values.
Crossover Settings:
Crossover ( TSX:XMA ) Lookback Bars: How many past bars to check for the last price/MA crossover. A smaller number focuses on recent crosses.
Histogram Settings:
Show Histogram Pane: Turn the entire histogram pane (including bars and lines) on or off.
Histogram Source MA: Crucial setting! Select which MA (MA1 to MA6) will be used to generate the histogram bars.
Histogram Positive/Negative Color: Choose the colors for the histogram bars when the price is above (positive) or below (negative) the selected MA.
Plot MAPC Line 1 to Plot MAPC Line 6: Check these boxes to draw the historical MAPC value for the corresponding MA as a line on the histogram pane.
MA 1 to MA 6 Settings:
Enable MA X: Turn each specific MA on or off. If off, it won't be calculated or shown in the table.
Type: Select the calculation type (SMA, EMA, etc.).
Length: Set the period for the MA.
Source: Choose the price data used for the MA calculation (Close, Open, High, Low, hl2, etc.).
Color: Select a color for this MA. This color is used as the background for the MA number in the first column of the table for easy identification.
Style, Width: These primarily affect how the MA would look if plotted on the main chart (which this indicator doesn't do by default), but the Width setting is not used in the table or histogram pane.
6. How to Interpret the Output
Table:
MA, Type, Len: Reminders of your settings for each row.
MA$: The current calculated value of that Moving Average.
Status: Quickly see if the price is currently bullish (above) or bearish (below) relative to that specific MA. Look for confluence (multiple MAs showing the same status). Text color matches MAPC (Green=Bullish, Red=Bearish).
TSX:XMA : Shows the price level of the last crossover within your lookback period. The background color tells you the direction of that cross (Green = Price crossed UP, Red = Price crossed DOWN). Useful for identifying potential support/resistance levels based on recent crosses. "N/A" means no cross occurred within the lookback.
MAPC: Shows the exact price difference between the source price and the MA. A large positive number means the price is significantly above the MA; a large negative number means it's significantly below. The text color indicates the direction (Green = Price > MA, Red = Price < MA). Useful for gauging the strength of deviation from the MA.
Histogram:
Focus on the MA selected in Histogram Source MA.
Bars above Zero: Price is above the selected MA (Bullish). Taller bars mean a larger difference.
Bars below Zero: Price is below the selected MA (Bearish). Longer bars (downwards) mean a larger difference.
Crossing the Zero Line: Indicates the price is crossing the selected MA.
Trend/Momentum: Observe if the histogram bars are generally staying positive or negative, and if their height/length is increasing or decreasing, which can indicate strengthening or weakening momentum relative to that MA.
MAPC Lines (if enabled):
Compare the lines to each other and the zero line. See how the price difference for different MAs has evolved over time. For example, you could plot a short-term MAPC line and a long-term MAPC line to see how they diverge or converge.
7. Potential Use Cases
Trend Confirmation: Check if the price is consistently above (bullish) or below (bearish) multiple MAs according to the "Status" column.
Momentum Gauge: Use the Histogram height/depth or the MAPC values to see how far the price is deviating from key MAs. Increasing deviation might suggest strong momentum, while decreasing deviation might suggest consolidation or reversal potential.
Crossover Signals: Use the " TSX:XMA " column's background color to quickly spot recent crossovers within your defined lookback. Note the price level ( TSX:XMA value) where it happened.
Dynamic Support/Resistance: The current "MA$" values act as potential dynamic support (if price is above) or resistance (if price is below). The " TSX:XMA " price shows where recent interactions occurred.
Comparing MA Relationships: Enable MAPC lines for different MAs (e.g., a fast MA and a slow MA) to visualize how their distance from the price changes relative to each other.
8. Important Notes
This indicator plots in a separate pane (overlay=false), not directly on your price chart.
The MA lines themselves are not plotted on the main chart by default, although the plotting code exists internally. The focus is on the table and histogram data.
MAPC shows the absolute price difference, not a percentage difference.
The usefulness of the " TSX:XMA " column depends heavily on the "Crossover Lookback Bars" setting.
This guide should help you understand and effectively use the MA Dashboard (MADashV1) indicator. Remember to experiment with the settings to tailor it to your specific trading style and the assets you trade.
