CISD [TakingProphets]🧠 Indicator Purpose:
The "CISD - Change in State of Delivery" is a precision tool designed for traders utilizing ICT (Inner Circle Trader) conecpets. It detects critical shifts in delivery conditions after liquidity sweeps — helping you spot true smart money activity and optimal trade opportunities. This script is especially valuable for traders applying liquidity concepts, displacement recognition, and market structure shifts at both intraday and swing levels.
🌟 What Makes This Indicator Unique:
Unlike basic trend-following or scalping tools, CISD operates through a two-phase smart money logic:
Liquidity Sweep Detection (sweeping Buyside or Sellside Liquidity).
State of Delivery Change Identification (through bearish or bullish displacement after the sweep).
It intelligently tracks candle sequences and only signals a CISD event after true displacement — offering a much deeper context than ordinary indicators.
⚙️ How the Indicator Works:
Swing Point Detection: Identifies recent pivot highs/lows to map Buyside Liquidity (BSL) and Sellside Liquidity (SSL) zones.
Liquidity Sweeps: Watches for price breaches of these liquidity points to detect institutional stop hunts.
Sequence Recognition: Finds series of same-direction candles before sweeps to mark institutional accumulation/distribution.
Change of Delivery Confirmation: Confirms CISD only after significant displacement moves price against the initial candle sequence.
Visual Markings: Automatically plots CISD lines and optional labels, customizable in color, style, and size.
🎯 How to Use It:
Identify Liquidity Sweeps: Watch for CISD levels plotted after a liquidity sweep event.
Plan Entries: Look for retracements into CISD lines for high-probability entries.
Manage Risk: Use CISD levels to refine your stop-loss and profit-taking zones.
Best Application:
After stop hunts during Killzones (London Open, New York AM).
As part of the Flow State Model: identify higher timeframe PD Arrays ➔ wait for lower timeframe CISD confirmation.
🔎 Underlying Concepts:
Liquidity Pools: Highs and lows cluster stop orders, attracting institutional sweeps.
Displacement: Powerful price moves post-sweep confirm smart money involvement.
Market Structure: CISD frequently precedes major Change of Character (CHoCH) or Break of Structure (BOS) shifts.
🎨 Customization Options:
Adjustable line color, width, and style (solid, dashed, dotted).
Optional label display with customizable color and sizing.
Line extension settings to keep CISD zones visible for future reference.
✅ Recommended for:
Traders studying ICT Smart Money Concepts.
Intraday scalpers and higher timeframe swing traders.
Traders who want to improve entries around liquidity sweeps and institutional displacement moves.

GCM Supreme Trading System Pro (With Golden Zone)Okay, bro! Here are some notes on your "GCM Supreme Trading System Pro (Dashboard + RSI)" indicator based on the Pine Script code you provided. Think of this as a breakdown of its components, logic, and how you might use it, along with some things to consider.
GCM Supreme Trading System Pro (Dashboard + RSI) - Notes
Overall Concept:
This indicator aims to provide an "all-in-one" visual dashboard and signal system by combining several technical analysis concepts:
Short-Term Trend: Using a fast EMA.
Volatility/Channel: High/Low plot with fill.
Sentiment: Background color based on price vs. EMA.
Price Structure/Pattern: Highlighting potential AMD phases.
Key Price Level: Previous day's specific Fibonacci zone (Golden Zone).
Momentum: RSI Overbought/Oversold status.
Volume Analysis: Identifying volume spikes.
Risk Assessment: Based on ATR volatility.
Signal Generation: Based on EMA direction change confirmed by candle color.
Centralized Summary: A dashboard showing the status of key components.
Key Components & How They Work:
Trend EMA (Length: 3 by default):
What: A very fast Exponential Moving Average of the specified source (close by default).
How: Plots the EMA line. Colors the line green if the EMA is moving up, red if moving down, gray if flat.
Usage: Provides a very quick view of the immediate price direction and momentum.
High/Low Channel Lines & Fill:
What: Plots the current bar's high and low.
How: The area between the high and low is filled. The fill color changes based on whether the Trend EMA is moving up (green fill), down (red fill), or is neutral (gray fill).
Usage: Visualizes the recent price range/volatility and ties it to the immediate trend direction.
Sentiment Background:
What: Colors the chart background.
How: Background is lightly colored green if the close is above the Trend EMA, and red if the close is below the Trend EMA.
Usage: Reinforces the current short-term bias based on price's position relative to the fast EMA.
AMD Pattern Candles:
What: Highlights specific candle patterns often associated with Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution phases.
How:
Accumulation (Aqua): Previous candle was Red, current candle is Green (Red -> Green).
Manipulation (Yellow): Previous candle was Green, current candle is Red (Green -> Red).
Distribution (Fuchsia): Two consecutive Red candles where the candle before the first Red was Not Red (Not Red -> Red -> Red).
Usage: Helps visually spot potential shifts in market behavior according to the AMD concept.
Previous Day's Fib Golden Zone (0.55-0.66):
What: Calculates a specific Fibonacci zone (between 55% and 66%) based on the previous day's range (High-Low).
How: Plots a horizontal box on the chart covering the calculated zone level. Uses the previous day's range direction (Green/Red candle) to determine if the zone is calculated up from the low (Green day) or down from the high (Red day).
Usage: Identifies a potential key retracement or support/resistance zone from the previous day's price action that may be relevant for the current day.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
What: A classic momentum oscillator.
How: Calculates the RSI value based on the specified length and source. The dashboard shows the current value and flags it as Overbought (> OB level), Oversold (< OS level), or Neutral.
Usage: Provides context on momentum extremes. High RSI suggests strong upward momentum (potentially overextended), low RSI suggests strong downward momentum (potentially oversold).
Volume Spike Confirmation:
What: Compares current volume to its Moving Average.
How: Calculates a simple moving average of volume. Identifies a "Spike" if the current volume is significantly higher (multiplied by a factor) than the MA.
Usage: Provides a contextual check for increased activity accompanying price moves. (Note: In the current script, this is calculated and shown on the dashboard but not directly used in the signal label logic, though it could be added).
Risk Assessment (ATR):
What: Uses the Average True Range.
How: Calculates the ATR for the specified length. Compares the current ATR to a longer-term average ATR. Flags "High Risk" if the current ATR is significantly higher than the average.
Usage: Gives an indication of current volatility relative to recent history, which can inform stop-loss placement or position sizing.
Signals (Buy/Sell Labels):
What: Plots "BUY" or "SELL" labels on the chart.
How:
BUY Signal: Triggers when the Trend EMA starts moving Up on the previous bar AND the current bar is Green (close > open).
SELL Signal: Triggers when the Trend EMA starts moving Down on the previous bar AND the current bar is Red (close < open).
Usage: These are your potential entry triggers. They indicate that the fast EMA trend has just changed direction and the current candle is confirming that move with its color.
Dashboard:
What: A 2x5 table displayed on the chart (bottom right by default).
How: Shows the current status of:
Trend (Bull/Bear/Neutral)
Volume (Spike/Normal)
Last Signal (🟢 BUY, 🔴 SELL, or None)
Risk (High/Normal based on ATR)
RSI (Overbought/Oversold/Neutral + Current Value)
Usage: Provides a quick, centralized summary of multiple indicator components without having to visually check every detail on the chart or separate panes.
How to Potentially Use It (Example Interpretation):
Look for a BUY signal (Green label) when:
The dashboard shows "🟢 BUY" as the Last Signal.
Consider additional confirmation: Is Volume status "Spike"? Is Risk "Normal"? Is RSI not "Overbought" (or perhaps just coming out of "Oversold" territory)? Is the price above/interacting positively with the Golden Zone?
Look for a SELL signal (Red label) when:
The dashboard shows "🔴 SELL" as the Last Signal.
Consider additional confirmation: Is Volume status "Spike"? Is Risk "Normal"? Is RSI not "Oversold" (or perhaps just coming out of "Overbought" territory)? Is the price below/interacting negatively with the Golden Zone?
Use the Sentiment Background and High/Low Channel Fill to quickly see the immediate trend and volatility context.
Watch AMD candles around key levels (like the Golden Zone or signal triggers) for potential pattern confirmation.
Check the Dashboard frequently for a summary of all these factors, even without a specific signal.
Strengths & Potential Benefits:
Comprehensive View: Integrates multiple popular trading concepts into a single indicator.
Visual Clarity: Uses colors, fills, labels, and a dashboard for easy interpretation.
Customizable: Inputs allow tuning the sensitivity of the EMA, Volume, ATR, and RSI to different assets/timeframes.
Dashboard Efficiency: Saves time by consolidating key status points.
Non-Repainting Signals: The buy/sell labels trigger and stay based on closed bar data.
Important Considerations & Limitations:
Fast EMA Sensitivity: An EMA length of 3 is very fast and prone to whipsaws, especially in choppy or ranging markets. Signals based solely on this could be frequent and unreliable in non-trending conditions.
Signal Logic: The core signal is only based on EMA direction change + candle color. While simple, it might miss opportunities or generate signals without broader market confirmation (like strong volume, favorable RSI position, or reaction at key levels). The dashboard provides these other factors as context, but they aren't required for the signal label in the current code.
Golden Zone Reliance: The previous day's Fib zone is just one potential level. It won't always be respected, and its relevance might vary significantly across different markets and timeframes.
AMD Patterns: The defined AMD patterns are specific. The market's "real" accumulation/manipulation/distribution might manifest in more complex ways.
Dashboard as Summary, Not Signal: Remember the dashboard shows the current status of all components on the last bar, but the BUY/SELL signal labels are based on a specific historical event (previous bar's EMA turn). You need to look at both: the label for the trigger, and the dashboard for the confluence of other factors right now.
Not a Standalone System: While called a "Trading System," no single indicator guarantees profitability. This tool provides signals and context, but requires a robust trading plan including stop losses, profit targets, position sizing, and potentially confluence with other analysis methods.
Timeframe Dependency: The ideal settings (EMA length, RSI length, etc.) will likely differ significantly between timeframes (e.g., 1-minute vs. 4-hour). Testing and optimization are crucial.
In Summary:
The "GCM Supreme Trading System Pro (Dashboard + RSI)" is a well-designed indicator that consolidates several useful analysis tools into a single view. Its strength lies in providing quick visual context and a clear signal trigger based on short-term trend shifts. However, like any indicator, it's not perfect. Its effectiveness will largely depend on the market conditions, the chosen settings, and how it's integrated into a comprehensive trading strategy, using the dashboard components as essential confirmation and risk assessment tools alongside the primary signal labels.
Master LTC/BTC Mining Energy Ratio, Usage (GW) & Miner CountThis Pine Script indicator, "Master LTC/BTC Mining Energy Ratio, Usage (GW) & Miner Count," calculates and visualizes key metrics for Litecoin (LTC) and Bitcoin (BTC) mining operations. Using IntoTheBlock hashrate data, it estimates the number of L7 (LTC) and S19 (BTC) miners, computes energy consumption in gigawatts (GW) based on calibrated efficiency values, and derives the LTC/BTC energy ratio as a percentage. The script plots these metrics—energy ratio, LTC/BTC energy usage, and miner counts (in thousands)—and displays a concise table summarizing the results. Assuming most miners use previous-generation hardware, it provides a clear comparison of the energy dynamics between LTC’s Scrypt and BTC’s SHA-256 algorithms.
NR4/NR7 + Trend + MACD + VWAP FilterThe Ultimate Momentum-Compression Strategy
This strategy merges the power of price compression and trend confirmation, ensuring you're trading when the market is coiled and ready to move. By combining multiple filters—NR4/NR7, trend alignment, MACD momentum, and VWAP support—this setup identifies high-probability trade opportunities in dynamic, trending stocks. Here's how it works:
NR4/NR7 Patterns: These are narrow-range days where the current price range is smaller than the previous 4 or 7 days. This signals potential breakout or continuation setups, as the market is compressing before making a move.
Trend Confirmation: To ensure you're not trading against the current trend, the price must be above the 20 EMA, and the 10 EMA must be above the 20 EMA. This confirms a bullish structure, with the price trending in your favour.
MACD Momentum: The fast MACD line must be above the slow MACD line, confirming the trend is not only intact but also gaining momentum.
VWAP Filter: Price must be above the VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price). This is the final confirmation that the market is in a strong, bullish phase, with buyers dominating the market.
By requiring all these conditions to align, this strategy takes the guesswork out of day trading. It ensures you're trading within a well-established trend, with compression patterns and momentum backing your trade. The result? You’re entering positions with confidence and clarity, poised to ride strong, sustained moves.
This strategy is for the trader who values both flexibility and discipline—able to capture dynamic moves while staying aligned with market structure and momentum. It’s a refined, systematic approach that makes decisions clear, without the emotional second-guessing.
SPY 0DTE Scalper - Auto AlertsTimeframes:
Main chart: 1-minute (for precision entries)
Confirmations: 3-minute or 5-minute (to avoid fakeouts)
Indicators I Use:
VWAP – Orange line → Institutional fair value
EMA 9 – Green line → Short-term momentum
EMA 21 – Red line → Trend filter
Custom Pullback Signal Script – Marks buy/sell/pullback signals with labels (triangles)
Above VWAP = Bullish Bias
Below VWAP = Bearish Bias
Institutions treat this as the "fair price" — so I do too.
EMA 9 (Green):
If price hugs or bounces off EMA 9 = 🔥 strong continuation move.
I use this as my guide for momentum.
EMA 21 (Red):
Great for trend confirmation.
Above EMA 21 = Trend building to the upside.
Below EMA 21 = Weakness or possible reversal.
💸 Step 3: How I Read the Signals
✅ BUY Signal:
Price breaks above VWAP with volume 1.5x+ average
Candle must close strong (not a wickfest)
EMA 9 becomes my trailing stop for the move
🚨 SELL Signal:
Price breaks below VWAP with strong volume
Clean body close below → momentum shift to the downside
EMA 9 again = trailing resistance guide
🔵 Pullback Long (Blue Triangle Under Candle):
Bullish continuation entry
Price pulls back to EMA 9 or 21, but stays above VWAP
Low-risk re-entry after a breakout
🟣 Pullback Short (Purple Triangle Above Candle):
Bearish continuation entry
Price retraces into EMA 9, but stays below VWAP & EMA 21
Ideal for catching second legs after breakdowns

ADR% Extension Levels from SMA 50I created this indicator inspired by RealSimpleAriel (a swing trader I recommend following on X) who does not buy stocks extended beyond 4 ADR% from the 50 SMA and uses extensions from the 50 SMA at 7-8-9-10-11-12-13 ADR% to take profits with a 20% position trimming.
RealSimpleAriel's strategy (as I understood it):
-> Focuses on leading stocks from leading groups and industries, i.e., those that have grown the most in the last 1-3-6 months (see on Finviz groups and then select sector-industry).
-> Targets stocks with the best technical setup for a breakout, above the 200 SMA in a bear market and above both the 50 SMA and 200 SMA in a bull market, selecting those with growing Earnings and Sales.
-> Buys stocks on breakout with a stop loss set at the day's low of the breakout and ensures they are not extended beyond 4 ADR% from the 50 SMA.
-> 3-5 day momentum burst: After a breakout, takes profits by selling 1/2 or 1/3 of the position after a 3-5 day upward move.
-> 20% trimming on extension from the 50 SMA: At 7 ADR% (ADR% calculated over 20 days) extension from the 50 SMA, takes profits by selling 20% of the remaining position. Continues to trim 20% of the remaining position based on the stock price extension from the 50 SMA, calculated using the 20-period ADR%, thus trimming 20% at 8-9-10-11 ADR% extension from the 50 SMA. Upon reaching 12-13 ADR% extension from the 50 SMA, considers the stock overextended, closes the remaining position, and evaluates a short.
-> Trailing stop with ascending SMA: Uses a chosen SMA (10, 20, or 50) as the definitive stop loss for the position, depending on the stock's movement speed (preferring larger SMAs for slower-moving stocks or for long-term theses). If the stock's closing price falls below the chosen SMA, the entire position is closed.
In summary:
-->Buy a breakout using the day's low of the breakout as the stop loss (this stop loss is the most critical).
--> Do not buy stocks extended beyond 4 ADR% from the 50 SMA.
--> Sell 1/2 or 1/3 of the position after 3-5 days of upward movement.
--> Trim 20% of the position at each 7-8-9-10-11-12-13 ADR% extension from the 50 SMA.
--> Close the entire position if the breakout fails and the day's low of the breakout is reached.
--> Close the entire position if the price, during the rise, falls below a chosen SMA (10, 20, or 50, depending on your preference).
--> Definitively close the position if it reaches 12-13 ADR% extension from the 50 SMA.
I used Grok from X to create this indicator. I am not a programmer, but based on the ADR% I use, it works.
Below is Grok from X's description of the indicator:
Script Description
The script is a custom indicator for TradingView that displays extension levels based on ADR% relative to the 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA). Below is a detailed description of its features, structure, and behavior:
1. Purpose of the Indicator
Name: "ADR% Extension Levels from SMA 50".
Objective: Draw horizontal blue lines above and below the 50-period SMA, corresponding to specific ADR% multiples (4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13). These levels represent potential price extension zones based on the average daily percentage volatility.
Overlay: The indicator is overlaid on the price chart (overlay=true), so the lines and SMA appear directly on the price graph.
2. Configurable Inputs
The indicator allows users to customize parameters through TradingView settings:
SMA Length (smaLength):
Default: 50 periods.
Description: Specifies the number of periods for calculating the Simple Moving Average (SMA). The 50-period SMA serves as the reference point for extension levels.
Constraint: Minimum 1 period.
ADR% Length (adrLength):
Default: 20 periods.
Description: Specifies the number of days to calculate the moving average of the daily high/low ratio, used to determine ADR%.
Constraint: Minimum 1 period.
Scale Factor (scaleFactor):
Default: 1.0.
Description: An optional multiplier to adjust the distance of extension levels from the SMA. Useful if levels are too close or too far due to an overly small or large ADR%.
Constraint: Minimum 0.1, increments of 0.1.
Tooltip: "Adjust if levels are too close or far from SMA".
3. Main Calculations
50-period SMA:
Calculated with ta.sma(close, smaLength) using the closing price (close).
Serves as the central line around which extension levels are drawn.
ADR% (Average Daily Range Percentage):
Formula: 100 * (ta.sma(dhigh / dlow, adrLength) - 1).
Details:
dhigh and dlow are the daily high and low prices, obtained via request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "D", high/low) to ensure data is daily-based, regardless of the chart's timeframe.
The dhigh / dlow ratio represents the daily percentage change.
The simple moving average (ta.sma) of this ratio over 20 days (adrLength) is subtracted by 1 and multiplied by 100 to obtain ADR% as a percentage.
The result is multiplied by scaleFactor for manual adjustments.
Extension Levels:
Defined as ADR% multiples: 4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13.
Stored in an array (levels) for easy iteration.
For each level, prices above and below the SMA are calculated as:
Above: sma50 * (1 + (level * adrPercent / 100))
Below: sma50 * (1 - (level * adrPercent / 100))
These represent price levels corresponding to a percentage change from the SMA equal to level * ADR%.
4. Visualization
Horizontal Blue Lines:
For each level (4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 ADR%), two lines are drawn:
One above the SMA (e.g., +4 ADR%).
One below the SMA (e.g., -4 ADR%).
Color: Blue (color.blue).
Style: Solid (style=line.style_solid).
Management:
Each level has dedicated variables for upper and lower lines (e.g., upperLine1, lowerLine1 for 4 ADR%).
Previous lines are deleted with line.delete before drawing new ones to avoid overlaps.
Lines are updated at each bar with line.new(bar_index , level, bar_index, level), covering the range from the previous bar to the current one.
Labels:
Displayed only on the last bar (barstate.islast) to avoid clutter.
For each level, two labels:
Above: E.g., "4 ADR%", positioned above the upper line (style=label.style_label_down).
Below: E.g., "-4 ADR%", positioned below the lower line (style=label.style_label_up).
Color: Blue background, white text.
50-period SMA:
Drawn as a gray line (color.gray) for visual reference.
Diagnostics:
ADR% Plot: ADR% is plotted in the status line (orange, histogram style) to verify the value.
ADR% Label: A label on the last bar near the SMA shows the exact ADR% value (e.g., "ADR%: 2.34%"), with a gray background and white text.
5. Behavior
Dynamic Updating:
Lines update with each new bar to reflect new SMA 50 and ADR% values.
Since ADR% uses daily data ("D"), it remains constant within the same day but changes day-to-day.
Visibility Across All Bars:
Lines are drawn on every bar, not just the last one, ensuring visibility on historical data as well.
Adaptability:
The scaleFactor allows level adjustments if ADR% is too small (e.g., for low-volatility symbols) or too large (e.g., for cryptocurrencies).
Compatibility:
Works on any timeframe since ADR% is calculated from daily data.
Suitable for symbols with varying volatility (e.g., stocks, forex, cryptocurrencies).
6. Intended Use
Technical Analysis: Extension levels represent significant price zones based on average daily volatility. They can be used to:
Identify potential price targets (e.g., take profit at +7 ADR%).
Assess support/resistance zones (e.g., -4 ADR% as support).
Measure price extension relative to the 50 SMA.
Trading: Useful for strategies based on breakouts or mean reversion, where ADR% levels indicate reversal or continuation points.
Debugging: Labels and ADR% plot help verify that values align with the symbol’s volatility.
7. Limitations
Dependence on Daily Data: ADR% is based on daily dhigh/dlow, so it may not reflect intraday volatility on short timeframes (e.g., 1 minute).
Extreme ADR% Values: For low-volatility symbols (e.g., bonds) or high-volatility symbols (e.g., meme stocks), ADR% may require adjustments via scaleFactor.
Graphical Load: Drawing 16 lines (8 upper, 8 lower) on every bar may slow the chart for very long historical periods, though line management is optimized.
ADR% Formula: The formula 100 * (sma(dhigh/dlow, Length) - 1) may produce different values compared to other ADR% definitions (e.g., (high - low) / close * 100), so users should be aware of the context.
8. Visual Example
On a chart of a stock like TSLA (daily timeframe):
The 50 SMA is a gray line tracking the average trend.
Assuming an ADR% of 3%:
At +4 ADR% (12%), a blue line appears at sma50 * 1.12.
At -4 ADR% (-12%), a blue line appears at sma50 * 0.88.
Other lines appear at ±7, ±8, ±9, ±10, ±11, ±12, ±13 ADR%.
On the last bar, labels show "4 ADR%", "-4 ADR%", etc., and a gray label shows "ADR%: 3.00%".
ADR% is visible in the status line as an orange histogram.
9. Code: Technical Structure
Language: Pine Script @version=5.
Inputs: Three configurable parameters (smaLength, adrLength, scaleFactor).
Calculations:
SMA: ta.sma(close, smaLength).
ADR%: 100 * (ta.sma(dhigh / dlow, adrLength) - 1) * scaleFactor.
Levels: sma50 * (1 ± (level * adrPercent / 100)).
Graphics:
Lines: Created with line.new, deleted with line.delete to avoid overlaps.
Labels: Created with label.new only on the last bar.
Plots: plot(sma50) for the SMA, plot(adrPercent) for debugging.
Optimization: Uses dedicated variables for each line (e.g., upperLine1, lowerLine1) for clear management and to respect TradingView’s graphical object limits.
10. Possible Improvements
Option to show lines only on the last bar: Would reduce visual clutter.
Customizable line styles: Allow users to choose color or style (e.g., dashed).
Alert for anomalous ADR%: A message if ADR% is too small or large.
Dynamic levels: Allow users to specify ADR% multiples via input.
Optimization for short timeframes: Adapt ADR% for intraday timeframes.
Conclusion
The script creates a visual indicator that helps traders identify price extension levels based on daily volatility (ADR%) relative to the 50 SMA. It is robust, configurable, and includes debugging tools (ADR% plot and labels) to verify values. The ADR% formula based on dhigh/dlow
Wyckoff Accumulation Distribution Wyckoff Accumulation & Distribution Indicator (RSI-Based)
This Pine Script is a technical analysis indicator built around the Wyckoff Method, designed to detect accumulation and distribution phases using RSI (Relative Strength Index) and pivot points. It automatically marks key structural turning points on the chart and highlights relevant zones with colored boxes.
What Does It Do?
Draws accumulation and distribution boxes based on RSI behavior.
Automatically detects Wyckoff structural signals:
SC (Selling Climax)
AR (Automatic Rally)
ST (Secondary Test)
BC (Buying Climax)
DAR (Automatic Reaction)
DST (Secondary Test - Distribution)
Identifies trend transitions by detecting sideways RSI movement.
Attempts to detect spring and UTAD-like deviations based on RSI reversals.
Uses RSI extremes in conjunction with pivot points to generate Wyckoff signals.
How Does It Work?
RSI Zone: It identifies sideways markets when RSI stays within ±20 of the 50 level (this range is configurable).
Pivot Points: It detects pivot highs/lows that sync with RSI values (pivotLen is adjustable).
Trend Box Drawing:
When RSI exits the sideways zone, the script draws a gray box between the highest high and lowest low within that range.
If RSI breaks upward, the box becomes green (Accumulation); if downward, it becomes red (Distribution).
Wyckoff Structural Points:
SC/BC: Detected when a pivot occurs with RSI below/above a threshold.
AR/DAR: The next opposite pivot after SC or BC.
ST/DST: The next same-direction pivot after AR or DAR.
How to Use It
Works best on 4H or daily charts for more reliable signals. Shorter timeframes may generate noise.
Primarily used for interpreting RSI structures through the lens of Wyckoff methodology.
Box colors help quickly identify market phase:
Green box: Likely Accumulation
Red box: Likely Distribution
Triangular markers show key signals:
SC, AR, ST: Accumulation points
BC, DAR, DST: Distribution points
Use these signals alongside price action to manually interpret Wyckoff phases.

What Is the Wyckoff Method?
The Wyckoff Method, developed in the 1930s by Richard Wyckoff, is a market analysis approach that focuses on supply and demand dynamics behind price movements.
Wyckoff’s 5 Phases:
Accumulation: Smart money gradually buying at low prices.
Markup: Price begins trending upwards.
Distribution: Smart money selling to retail traders.
Markdown: Downtrend begins as supply outweighs demand.
Re-accumulation / Re-distribution: Trend-continuation phases with consolidations.
This indicator is specifically designed to detect phase 1 (Accumulation) and phase 3 (Distribution).
Extra Notes
Repainting is minimal, as pivots are confirmed using historical candles.
Labels use plotshape for a clean, minimalist visual style.
Other Wyckoff events (like SOS, LPS, UT, UTAD) could be added in future updates.
This script does not generate buy/sell signals; it is meant for structural interpretation.
Anchored Darvas Box## ANCHORED DARVAS BOX
---
### OVERVIEW
**Anchored Darvas Box** lets you drop a single timestamp on your chart and build a Darvas-style consolidation zone forward from that exact candle. The indicator freezes the first user-defined number of bars to establish the range, verifies that price respects that range for another user-defined number of bars, then waits for the first decisive breakout. The resulting rectangle captures every tick of the accumulation phase and the exact moment of expansion—no manual drawing, complete timestamp precision.
---
### HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Nicolas Darvas’s 1950s box theory tracked institutional accumulation by hand-drawing rectangles around tight price ranges. A trade was triggered only when price escaped the rectangle.
The anchored version preserves Darvas’s logic but pins the entire sequence to a user-chosen candle: perfect for analysing a market open, an earnings release, FOMC minute, or any other catalytic bar.
---
### ALGORITHM DETAIL
1. **ANCHOR BAR**
*You provide a timestamp via the settings panel.* The script waits until the chart reaches that bar and records its index as **startBar**.
2. **RANGE DEFINITION — BARS 1-7**
• `rangeHigh` = highest high of bars 1-7 plus optional tolerance.
• `rangeLow` = lowest low of bars 1-7 minus optional tolerance.
3. **RANGE VALIDATION — BARS 8-14**
• Price must stay inside ` `.
• Any violation aborts the test; no box is created.
4. **ARMED STATE**
• If bars 8-14 hold the range, two live guide-lines appear:
– **Green** at `rangeHigh`
– **Red** at `rangeLow`
• The script is now “armed,” waiting indefinitely for the first true breakout.
5. **BREAKOUT & BOX CREATION**
• **Up breakout** =`high > rangeHigh` → rectangle drawn in **green**.
• **Down breakout**=`low < rangeLow` → rectangle drawn in **red**.
• Box extends from **startBar** to the breakout bar and never updates again.
• Optional labels print the dollar and percentage height of the box at its left edge.
6. **OPTIONAL COOLDOWN**
• After the box is painted the script can stay silent for a user-defined number of bars, letting you study the fallout without another range immediately arming on top of it.
---
### INPUT PARAMETERS
• **ANCHOR TIME** – Precise yyyy-mm-dd HH:MM:SS that seeds the sequence.
• **BARS TO DEFINE RANGE** – Default 7; affects both definition and validation windows.
• **OPTIONAL TOLERANCE** – Absolute price buffer to ignore micro-wicks.
• **COOLDOWN BARS AFTER BREAKOUT** – Pause length before the indicator is allowed to re-anchor (set to zero to disable).
• **SHOW BOX DISTANCE LABELS** – Toggle to print Δ\$ and Δ% on every completed box.
---
### USER WORKFLOW
1. Add the indicator, open settings, and set **ANCHOR TIME** to the candle you care about (e.g., “2025-04-23 09:30:00” for NYSE open).
2. Watch live as the script:
– Paints the seven-bar range.
– Draws validation lines.
– Locks in the box on breakout.
3. Use the box boundaries as structural stops, targets, or context for further trades.
---
### PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
• **OPENING RANGE BREAKOUTS** – Anchor at the first second of the session; capture the initial 7-bar range and trade the first clean break.
• **EVENT STUDIES** – Anchor at a news candle to measure immediate post-event volatility.
• **VOLUME PROFILE FUSION** – Combine the anchored box with VPVR to see if the breakout occurs at a high-volume node or a low-liquidity pocket.
• **RISK DISCIPLINE** – Stop-loss can sit just inside the opposite edge of the anchored range, enforcing objective risk.
---
### ADVANCED CUSTOMISATION IDEAS
• **MULTIPLE ANCHORS** – Clone the indicator and anchor several boxes (e.g., London open, New York open).
• **DYNAMIC WINDOW** – Switch the 7-bar fixed length to a volatility-scaled length (ATR percentile).
• **STRATEGY WRAPPER** – Turn the indicator into a `strategy{}` script and back-test anchored boxes on decades of data.
---
### FINAL THOUGHTS
Anchored Darvas Boxes give you Darvas’s timeless range-break methodology anchored to any candle of interest—perfect for dissecting openings, economic releases, or your own bespoke “important” bars with laboratory precision.
Auto Darvas Boxes## AUTO DARVAS BOXES
---
### OVERVIEW
**Auto Darvas Boxes** is a fully-automated, event-driven implementation of Nicolas Darvas’s 1950s box methodology.
The script tracks consolidation zones in real time, verifies that price truly “respects” those zones for a fixed validation window, then waits for the first decisive range violation to mark a directional breakout.
Every box is plotted end-to-end—from the first candle of the sideways range to the exact candle that ruptures it—giving you an on-chart, visually precise record of accumulation or distribution and the expansion that follows.
---
### HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
* Nicolas Darvas was a professional ballroom dancer who traded U.S. equities by telegram while touring the world.
* Without live news or Level II, he relied exclusively on **price** to infer institutional intent.
* His core insight: true market-moving entities leave footprints in the form of tight ranges; once their buying (or selling) is complete, price erupts out of the “box.”
* Darvas’s original procedure was manual—he kept notebooks, drew rectangles around highs and lows, and entered only when price punched out of the roof of a valid box.
* This indicator distills that logic into a rolling, self-resetting state machine so you never miss a box or breakout on any timeframe.
---
### ALGORITHM DETAIL (FOUR-STATE MACHINE)
**STATE 0 – RANGE DEFINITION**
• Examine the last *N* candles (default 7).
• Record `rangeHigh = highest(high, N) + tolerance`.
• Record `rangeLow = lowest(low, N) – tolerance`.
• Remember the index of the earliest bar in this window (`startBar`).
• Immediately transition to STATE 1.
**STATE 1 – RANGE VALIDATION**
• Observe the next *N* candles (again default 7).
• If **any** candle prints `high > rangeHigh` or `low < rangeLow`, the validation fails and the engine resets to STATE 0 **beginning at the violating candle**—no halfway boxes, no overlap.
• If all *N* candles remain inside the range, the box becomes **armed** and we transition to STATE 2.
**STATE 2 – ARMED (LIVE VISUAL FEEDBACK)**
• Draw a **green horizontal line** at `rangeHigh`.
• Draw a **red horizontal line** at `rangeLow`.
• Lines are extended in real time so the user can see the “live” Darvas ceiling and floor.
• Engine waits indefinitely for a breakout candle:
– **Up-Breakout** if `high > rangeHigh`.
– **Down-Breakout** if `low < rangeLow`.
**STATE 3 – BREAKOUT & COOLDOWN**
• Upon breakout the script:
1. Deletes the live range lines.
2. Draws a **filled rectangle (box)** from `startBar` to the breakout bar.
◦ **Green fill** when price exits above the ceiling.
◦ **Red fill** when price exits below the floor.
3. Optionally prints two labels at the left edge of the box:
◦ Dollar distance = `rangeHigh − rangeLow`.
◦ Percentage distance = `(rangeHigh − rangeLow) / rangeLow × 100 %`.
• After painting, the script waits a **user-defined cooldown** (default = 7 bars) before reverting to STATE 0. The cooldown guarantees separation between consecutive tests and prevents overlapping rectangles.
---
### INPUT PARAMETERS (ALL ADJUSTABLE FROM THE SETTINGS PANEL)
* **BARS TO DEFINE RANGE** – Number of candles used for both the definition and validation windows. Classic Darvas logic uses 7 but feel free to raise it on higher timeframes or volatile instruments.
* **OPTIONAL TOLERANCE** – Absolute price buffer added above the ceiling and below the floor. Use a small tolerance to ignore single-tick spikes or data-feed noise.
* **COOLDOWN BARS AFTER BREAKOUT** – How long the engine pauses before hunting for the next consolidation. Setting this equal to the range length produces non-overlapping, evenly spaced boxes.
* **SHOW BOX DISTANCE LABELS** – Toggle on/off. When on, each completed box displays its vertical size in both dollars and percentage, anchored at the box’s left edge.
---
### REAL-TIME VISUALISATION
* During the **armed** phase you see two extended, colour-coded guide-lines showing the exact high/low that must hold.
* When the breakout finally occurs, those lines vanish and the rectangle instantly appears, coloured to match the breakout direction.
* This immediate visual feedback turns any chart into a live Darvas tape—no manual drawing, no lag.
---
### PRACTICAL USE-CASES & BEST-PRACTICE WORKFLOWS
* **INTRADAY MOMENTUM** – Drop the script on 1- to 15-minute charts to catch tight coils before they explode. The coloured box marks the precise origin of the expansion; stops can sit just inside the opposite side of the box.
* **SWING & POSITION TRADING** – On 4-hour or daily charts, boxes often correspond to accumulation bases or volatility squeezes. Waiting for the box-validated breakout filters many false signals.
* **MEAN-REVERSION OR “FADE” STRATEGIES** – If a breakout immediately fails and price re-enters the box, you may have trapped momentum traders; fading that failure can be lucrative.
* **RISK MANAGEMENT** – Box extremes provide objective, structure-based stop levels rather than arbitrary ATR multiples.
* **BACK-TEST RESEARCH** – Because each box is plotted from first range candle to breakout candle, you can programmatically measure hold time, range height, and post-breakout expectancy for any asset.
---
### CUSTOMISATION IDEAS FOR POWER USERS
* **VOLATILITY-ADAPTIVE WINDOW** – Replace the fixed 7-bar length with a dynamic value tied to ATR percentile so the consolidation window stretches or compresses with volatility.
* **MULTI-TIMEFRAME LOGIC** – Only arm a 5-minute box if the 1-hour trend is aligned.
* **STRATEGY WRAPPER** – Convert the indicator to a full `strategy{}` script, automate entries on breakouts, and benchmark performance across assets.
* **ALERTS** – Create TradingView alerts on both up-breakout and down-breakout conditions; route them to webhook for broker automation.

### FINAL THOUGHTS
**Auto Darvas Boxes** packages one of the market’s oldest yet still potent price-action frameworks into a modern, self-resetting indicator. Whether you trade equities, futures, crypto, or forex, the script highlights genuine contraction-expansion sequences—Darvas’s original “boxes”—with zero manual effort, letting you focus solely on execution and risk.
The LBF modelThe LBF Model is a structural pattern detector that highlights potential reversal zones using a specific sequence of pivot points. It identifies both bearish (LL → LH → LL → HH → LH) and bullish (HH → HL → HH → LL → HL) formations, marking moments where price shows signs of exhaustion and directional shift.
Built purely on price action, the LBF Model avoids indicators and focuses on clean structure. It draws patterns directly on the chart, with customizable sensitivity and colors. Whether used on its own or with other tools, it helps traders spot key turning points with clarity and precision.
Swing Highs and Lows between two InstrumentsThis Indicator will show you common Swing Points between two different trading symbols.
You can also use it to display the Swing Points of the current symbol or another symbol only.
When applying the Indicator to your chart it will ask you to put in a symbol. This symbol is used to find common Swing Points against the symbol that you have on your screen. Should you decide not to choose any symbol the indicator will instead mark all Swing Points for the current symbol.
Settings
Symbol: Choose any symbol that you want to compare to the selected symbol on your screen.
Sensitivity: The sensitivity defines how many candles left and right of a Swing Point have to be below (Swing High) or above (Swing Low) in order for the Indicator to mark it. A lower sensitivity will give a lot more Swing points, whereas a higher sensitivity will show less, but more important Swing Points.
Equal Highs Permissible: When calculating where a Swing Point is you can decide how you want equal highs and equal lows to be handled. The default is set to "yes" which means equal highs will be counted as if they were below (Swing High) or above (Swing Low). Choosing "no" will alter the indicators behaviour and only mark a Swing Point if all values within the sensitivity are below (Swing High) or above (Swing Low). As equal highs/lows are not below/above the Swing Point, but at the same level it will not mark the Swing Point.
Options:
You can choose to display Swing Highs and Lows for each symbol individually as well as Common Swing Points, which is the default. If you choose to display different Swing Points at the same time the visual order of importance is the following: common Swing Points > current symbol Swing Points > second symbol Swing Points.
You can also change the symbols and colors that mark the Swing Points or restrict the timeframes that the Indicator works on.
Multi Scanner Plot & Table V1Here's how to interpret each column in the table:
Price vs MAs:
What it shows: Where the current price is relative to the short-term (e.g., 20-period) and long-term (e.g., 50-period) Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) calculated on your current chart's timeframe.
Interpretation:
Above Both (Green background): Price is above both the short and long MAs. Generally considered a bullish sign for the current trend.
Below Both (Red background): Price is below both MAs. Generally considered a bearish sign.
Mixed (Gray background): Price is between the two MAs (e.g., above the short but below the long, or vice-versa). Indicates indecision or a potential trend change.
RSI Value:
What it shows: The actual numerical value of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) calculated on your current chart's timeframe.
Interpretation: Just the raw RSI number (e.g., 65.32). The background is always gray. You compare this value to standard overbought/oversold levels (like 70/30) or the levels defined in the script's inputs.
RSI Status:
What it shows: Interprets the RSI Value based on the Overbought/Oversold levels set in the script's inputs (default 70/30). Calculated on your current chart's timeframe.
Interpretation:
Overbought (Red background): RSI is above the overbought level (e.g., > 70). Suggests the asset might be due for a pullback or reversal downwards. Red indicates a potentially bearish condition.
Oversold (Green background): RSI is below the oversold level (e.g., < 30). Suggests the asset might be due for a bounce or reversal upwards. Green indicates a potentially bullish condition.
Neutral (Gray background): RSI is between the oversold and overbought levels.
Last Sig Price:
What it shows: The price level where the last "SIG NOW" Buy or Sell signal occurred on your current chart's timeframe.
Interpretation: Helps you see the entry price of the most recent short-term signal generated by this script. The background color matches the signal type: Green for the last Buy signal, Red for the last Sell signal. N/A if no signal has occurred yet.
SIG NOW:
What it shows: This is the main short-term signal generated by the script based on conditions on your current chart's timeframe. It combines the "Price vs MAs" status and specific RSI conditions (price must be above/below both MAs and RSI must be within a certain range defined in the inputs).
Interpretation:
BUY (Green background): The specific buy conditions are met right now. (Price above both MAs AND RSI is strong but not necessarily overbought).
SELL (Red background): The specific sell conditions are met right now. (Price below both MAs AND RSI is weak but not necessarily oversold).
NEUTRAL (Gray background): Neither the Buy nor the Sell conditions are currently met.
ALERT:
What it shows: Flags unusual volume activity on the current bar compared to the recent average volume (calculated on your current chart's timeframe).
Interpretation:
SPIKE (Yellow background, black text): Current volume is significantly higher than the recent average (defined by the Volume Spike Multiplier). Can indicate strong interest or a potential climax.
DUMP (Purple background): Current volume is significantly lower than the recent average (defined by the Volume Dump Multiplier). Can indicate fading interest.
NONE (Gray background): Volume is within the normal range for the lookback period.
SD$:
What it shows: The price level where the last Volume Spike or Dump occurred on your current chart's timeframe.
Interpretation: Shows the price associated with the most recent significant volume event. The background color indicates the type of the last event: Green if the last event was a Spike, Red if the last event was a Dump. N/A if no Spike/Dump has occurred yet.
BB Value (%B):
What it shows: This relates to Bollinger Bands, but specifically calculated on a Higher Timeframe (HTF) that you can set in the inputs (e.g., Daily BBs while viewing an Hourly chart). It shows the Bollinger Band Percent B (%B) value for that HTF. %B measures where the HTF closing price is relative to the HTF upper and lower bands.
Interpretation:
Value > 1: HTF price closed above the HTF upper Bollinger Band.
Value < 0: HTF price closed below the HTF lower Bollinger Band.
Value between 0 and 1: HTF price closed within the HTF Bollinger Bands (e.g., 0.5 is exactly on the middle band).
The background is always gray.
LTS (Long Term Signal):
What it shows: A signal derived only from the Higher Timeframe (HTF) Bollinger Bands.
Interpretation:
BUY (Green background): The HTF price closed above the HTF upper Bollinger Band (see BB Value > 1). Considered a strong bullish signal from the higher timeframe perspective.
SELL (Red background): The HTF price closed below the HTF lower Bollinger Band (see BB Value < 0). Considered a strong bearish signal from the higher timeframe perspective.
NEUTRAL (Gray background): The HTF price closed within the HTF Bollinger Bands.
How to Understand Bollinger Bands and Signals in this Context:
Bollinger Bands are primarily used for the Long Term Signal (LTS) column. This script calculates BBs on a higher timeframe (you choose which one, or it defaults to the chart's timeframe if left blank).
The "LTS" signal triggers:
A BUY when the price on that higher timeframe closes above its upper Bollinger Band. This often indicates strong momentum or a potential breakout.
A SELL when the price on that higher timeframe closes below its lower Bollinger Band. This often indicates strong negative momentum or a potential breakdown.
The "BB Value" column gives you the raw %B number from that same higher timeframe, showing you exactly where the price is relative to the bands (is it just barely above/below, or way outside?).
The script does not directly use Bollinger Bands from the current chart timeframe for the "SIG NOW" or other table signals. The main short-term signals ("SIG NOW") rely on Moving Averages and RSI on the current timeframe. The LTS provides a longer-term perspective using HTF Bollinger Bands.
In summary: Look at the table to quickly gauge:
Short-term trend (Price vs MAs).
Short-term momentum (RSI Status, SIG NOW).
Recent short-term entry points (Last Sig Price).
Current volume anomalies (ALERT).
Long-term strength/weakness based on HTF Bollinger Bands (LTS, BB Value).
Combine these pieces of information to get a more rounded view of the current market conditions according to this specific script's logic.
FVG Detector Modified# FVG Detector Modified
## Description
The FVG Detector Modified is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to identify Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) in the market with enhanced filtering capabilities. FVGs represent imbalances between buyers and sellers, indicating potential areas where price may return to "fill the gap" in the future.
This indicator not only identifies traditional bullish and bearish FVGs but also features a unique pattern recognition system that highlights significant FVGs by detecting consecutive occurrences within a customizable lookback period. The smart visualization system prevents visual clutter by avoiding duplicate markers in close proximity.
## Key Features
- **Bullish & Bearish FVG Detection**: Automatically identifies and displays both bullish (blue) and bearish (red) Fair Value Gaps
- **Customizable Appearance**: Adjust colors, transparency, and extension of FVGs to match your chart setup
- **Width Filtering**: Filter out insignificant FVGs using minimum width thresholds with multiple measurement methods (Points, Percentage, or ATR)
- **Smart Pattern Recognition**: Highlights significant FVGs when multiple gaps occur within a customizable lookback period
- **Anti-Clutter Technology**: Prevents visual overload by avoiding duplicate markers within a 5-candle window
- **Circle Size Options**: Choose from five different circle marker sizes (Tiny to Huge) to suit your chart setup
- **Multiple Alert Types**: Set alerts for basic FVG formations, pattern-based FVGs, and actual circle marker appearances
## Trading Applications
- Identify potential price reversal zones where market may return to "fill the gap"

Session Open Lines [iFarsheed]Overview:
The "Session Open Lines " indicator is mainly designed for Al Brooks Price Action traders using 5-minute charts, particularly during the NYSE session. It marks Tokyo, London, and NYSE session open/close times with dashed lines and optional labels to help you analyze session-based price movements.
Features:
Session Marking:
Draws dashed lines to indicate the open and close times of Tokyo, London, and NYSE sessions.
NYSE session can be split into two or three parts for detailed analysis (e.g., Morning/Afternoon or Open/Middle/Close).
Optional Labels:
Displays labels (e.g., "Tokyo Open", "NYSE Close") below the chart to clearly identify session boundaries.
Labels can be toggled on or off for a cleaner chart view.
Customizable Display:
Choose which sessions to display and customize line colors to match your chart setup
How to Use:
Customize Settings:
Enable or disable specific sessions (Tokyo, London, NYSE) based on your trading focus.
Adjust line colors to ensure visibility against your chart background.
Toggle session labels on or off depending on your chart type (e.g., disable for RTH charts)
Analyze Session Boundaries:
Use the dashed lines to identify session open/close times and analyze price action around these key moments.
For NYSE session, split into two or three parts to break down the session into manageable segments for deeper analysis.
Informed Decision Making:
Leverage session boundaries to spot potential price action setups, such as breakouts or reversals, especially during the NYSE session
Important Note:
Due to Pine Script limitations (max 500 lines), if all sessions are enabled, lines are drawn for the past 5 days. Selecting fewer sessions allows more days to be displayed.
Lines are drawn only up to the current time; future session lines (e.g., NYSE Close) won't appear until the session ends.
For RTH charts, use only the NYSE session. It’s recommended to disable labels in RTH mode, as NYSE Open and Close lines are close together and labels may overlap.
Future Updates:
This indicator is just the beginning! Exciting new features are on the way to make your price action analysis even more powerful—stay tuned for updates!
If you have any suggestions or feedback, please share them in the comments section.
Happy Price Action Trading!
